[03:00] <KenSentMe> !helpme
[03:00] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:00] <frogzoo_> xopher: you should already have gnome-applets installed, so now add cpufreq-applet to the taskbar - it works best if you 'sudo chmod /usr/bin/cpufreq-selector'
[03:00] <bayziders> KenSentMe it should be y.desktop
[03:01] <shc79> i can't write korea
[03:01] <shc79> only english
[03:01] <shc79> help me
[03:01] <xopher> frogzoo_, do you know if these features are limited to the gnome desktop? as Im using xfce at the moment
[03:02] <shc79> gnome desktop
[03:02] <KenSentMe> bayziders: go to the folder where the files is in. Then type sudo mv y and then the tab, it will autocomplete the filename (or press it twice if there are more files that start with y)
[03:02] <frogzoo_> xopher: nope - you just need a way to talk to cpufreqd
[03:03] <xopher> Ok. What about the screen dimming then?

[03:13] <KenSentMe> bayziders: if you type the first letter of a filename, Tab fills in the rest of the filename. So hit Tab after sudo mv Y [tab]
[03:13] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt is tetex a latex replacement?
[03:13] <EnsignRedshirt> Balsamic_Chicken: It is an implementation to tex and latex.
[03:13] <EnsignRedshirt> s/to/of/
 what program did u test you mic in?
[03:13] <gandalfcome> I use fglrx on ubuntu edgy. I have my xorg configured for big desktop. The login screen is in big desktop mode but when gnome starts the external lcd goes to distorted clone(i have a laptop ati x700 card). thanks for help
[03:14] <EnsignRedshirt> najjstroem0050: Audacity.
[03:14] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt what's s/to/of/ mean, sorry kinda new, and also how do i start tetex, it seems installed already
[03:14] <bayziders> KenSentMe : ok it moved it now why isnt it on my menu?
[03:14] <EnsignRedshirt> Balsamic_Chicken: Sorry, that is short-hand for: change "to" to "of" in my previous message.
 where did u get it?
[03:15] <KenSentMe> bayziders: maybe you need to restart X by hitting ctrl+alt+backspace or reboot
[03:15] <EnsignRedshirt> najjstroem0050: Applications ->Sound&Video -> Audacity
[03:15] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt o thx
[03:15] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt btw how do i start tetex?
 do you got ubuntu?
[03:15] <EnsignRedshirt> najjstroem0050: Yes, I am using Dapper (6.06)
[03:15] <o0splitpaw0o> anyone know a command to reassociate programs that need open gl to find the proper open gx. I dud a apt-get dist upgrade, but now anythign associated that needs opengl to glx to work, fails.
[03:16] <KenSentMe> gandalfcome: maybe you can check this forum topic: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221174 . There is good support there if you have problems
[03:16] <robbo> Do you know any portscanner for Ubuntu please?...
[03:16] <EnsignRedshirt> Balsamic_Chicken: The tetex package(s) will give you the latex command (among others)
[03:16] <KenSentMe> bayziders: did it work?
[03:16] <bayziders> no
[03:16] <Tomcat_> robbo: nmap
[03:16] <frogzoo_> robbo: the one & only nmap
[03:17] <KenSentMe> bayziders: check if the options in the file are set right
[03:17] <bayziders> KenSentMe im pretty sure they are it works when i click on it but it is not in the menu
[03:18] <EnsignRedshirt> najjstroem0050: I forgot... audacity is not installed in ubuntu dapper by default. You have to install it from the universe repository.
[03:18] <KenSentMe> bayziders: why does it have to be through command line?
[03:18] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt how do i use it tho, i never used latex b4 =)
[03:18] <Bnirkow> hello
[03:18] <gili> i am having a problem with a process that seems to takeover my ALSA drivers i think....its a zombie process called "play" cant seem to get rid of it
[03:18] <gili> anyone?
 i did, but i get a error when i start it
[03:18] <malachi_> Ack, disconnected.
[03:18] <rogue780> is there a way to move recursively? I have a directory tree and I want to move all .mp3 files out of it to another directory
[03:19] <Bnirkow> how looks correct menu.lst for edgy grub ??
[03:19] <najjstroem0050> A error corrupted when started in/out respository
[03:19] <KenSentMe> rogue780: mv -R ?
[03:19] <bayziders> KenSentMe becuase I can not graphicly do it on other peoples computers over the internet
[03:19] <EnsignRedshirt> Balsamic_Chicken: latex is a command.  You edit your file, say myfile.tex, and give to latex.  In a terminal, you would say: latex myfile.tex
[03:19] <riotkittie> gili: did you try kill with a -9 ?
[03:19] <tuskernini> KenSentMe, if you are talking about installing stuff, it does not have to be commandline
[03:19] <EnsignRedshirt> Balsamic_Chicken: google for "latex guide" or "latex tutorial", you'll find lots.
[03:19] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt cool thx alot
[03:20] <gili> riotkittie: elaborate...? on the command line
[03:20] <tuskernini> KenSentMe, i did not read all the comments... excuse me
[03:20] <riotkittie> the command line is your friend. learn it. love it. bake it cookies.
[03:20] <KenSentMe> bayziders: but maybe you could first try doing it through the menu and look what the file looks like
[03:20] <KenSentMe> tuskernini: no problem
[03:20] <o0splitpaw0o> anyone know how to resync any applications that need opengl. I used apt-get dist upgrade and now all my programs that need open gl can execute. because they mention "they can't find an apropriate gl to handle it. I tried reinstalling the apps to have it possibly download some missing package I don't have anymore. but no go.
[03:20] <bayziders> KenSentMe: ok so how do i do that
[03:20] <EnsignRedshirt> Balsamic_Chicken: By the way, kile is a nice latex editor, and it lets you run latex on your file by clicking on a button.
[03:20] <riotkittie> gili: kill -9 PID     ... if you dont know teh PID, ... ps ax | grep play
[03:21] <gili> ok
[03:21] <gili> thanks
[03:21] <EnsignRedshirt> Balsamic_Chicken: I use kile almost all the time when I work on latex files.
[03:21] <gili> trying now
[03:21] <KenSentMe> bayziders: through System - Preferences - Menu-something (i don't use english ubuntu)
[03:21] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt nice, is it in the repos?
[03:21] <tuskernini> KenSentMe, menu layout
[03:21] <KenSentMe> tuskernini: ok, ty
[03:21] <bayziders> its menu and toolbars and ok im there what now
[03:22] <EnsignRedshirt> Balsamic_Chicken: Yes.  It is designed for KDE, but it works fine in gnome, too.  (When you install the package, a whole lot of other kde libraries will also be installed.)
[03:22] <KenSentMe> bayziders: please try some things yourself. There's a add item button on the right
[03:22] <KenSentMe> bayziders: are you on edgy or dapper?
[03:22] <bayziders> dapper
[03:22] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt cool thx so much =)
[03:23] <bayziders> i dont see a add button
[03:23] <KenSentMe> bayziders: then go to a folder and right click to add an item
[03:23] <gili> riotkittie: what does the -9 do
[03:23] <gili> for kill
[03:24] <Bnirkow> how looks correct menu.lst for edgy grub ??
[03:24] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt would u happen to know if octave (matlab like) have a gui in kubuntu? i couldn't find one in the repos, and i'm not sure if i should get yaog (yet another octave gui)
[03:24] <frogzoo_> gili: man kill
[03:24] <rogue780> KenSentMe, -R is not valid with mv. already tried it
[03:24] <bulmer> gili: type   kill -l   and it will list all the kill signals
[03:24] <riotkittie> gili: i believe 9 makes it so that the signal cant be blocked
[03:24] <gili> ok i got that part
[03:24] <EnsignRedshirt> Balsamic_Chicken: I know what octave is, but I never use it.  I have matlab, and if I don't use matlab, I use scilab.
[03:25] <KenSentMe> rogue780: isn't a mv command always recursivly ( you can't move a folder without moving subfolders)
[03:25] <gili> when i list ps -A i get a PID for a process called PLAY which is in brackets states as defunct
[03:25] <gili> when i kill this process nothing happens
[03:25] <rogue780> I don't need to move the folders...just the files out of them
[03:25] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt can i interconvert between scilab code and matlab code pretty smoothly? and also i have a student version of windows matlab, can that be installed on kubuntu? thx alot
[03:25] <bulmer> gili: those are Zombies, you cant really removed them manually
[03:26] <rogue780> KenSentMe, my last was to you
[03:26] <o0splitpaw0o> ok i'll wait
[03:26] <gili> right
[03:26] <gili> so could a zombie process lock up my sound system
[03:26] <gili> ?
[03:26] <bayziders> Ok i cna do it graphicly now i need to do it through the terminal in a shell script
[03:26] <bulmer> if it was related to it, if you run out of process id's
[03:26] <EnsignRedshirt> Balsamic_Chicken: scilab and matlab are close, but not the same.  Somewhere in the scilab docs or web page there is a conversion guide.
[03:27] <KenSentMe> rogue780: move * then, or do you want the files in subfolders to be moved too, without the subfolders itself?
[03:27] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt cool thx
[03:27] <EnsignRedshirt> Balsamic_Chicken: I use the linux version of matlab.
[03:27] <gili> ok so if i have a zombie process it cannot be halted at all.....? onbly reboot
[03:27] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt do u know where i could get a copy?
[03:27] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt buy it online?
[03:28] <bulmer> gili: zombies are dead process, they are just lingering in the process table taking up resources
[03:28] <rogue780> KenSentMe, the files in the subfolders need to be moved...and there are over 500 subdirectories
[03:28] <bulmer> so yah reboot
[03:28] <EnsignRedshirt> Balsamic_Chicken: Matlab? Yup, you have to buy it from mathworks.
[03:28] <rogue780> KenSentMe, dont need the subfolders
[03:28] <CyTG> looking for a sata controller (pci 32bit/33mhz) can you recommend something ?
[03:28] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt cool that sucks =)
[03:29] <bulmer> rogue780 see those folks at bash channel, very helpful people on scripting to remove such recursive directories (not folders in linux)
[03:29] <gili> bulmer: ok thanks....but could such a dead process be halting my sound system,,,, ihave no sound now and Audacious is claiming another program/resource is using sound....i took an educated guess that since this process is called Play"
[03:29] <EnsignRedshirt> Balsamic_Chicken: matlab is more extensive, more widely used, and more polished than scilab, but for many things, scilab is just as good.  And scilab is free.
[03:29] <_dellfan_> rogue780: find <folder with mp3s> -name '*mp3' -exec mv {} <another folder>/ \;
[03:29] <gili> it was called by some audio dev
[03:30] <rogue780> bulmer, _dellfan_,  thanks
[03:30] <o0splitpaw0o> anyone know how to resync any applications that need opengl. I used apt-get dist upgrade and now all my programs that need open gl can execute. because they mention "they can't find an apropriate gl to handle it. I tried reinstalling the apps to have it possibly download some missing package I don't have anymore. but no go.
[03:30] <bulmer> gili: i dont know, it could be one of those processes that have not released the resource used for sounds..
[03:30] <gili> ok thanks
[03:30] <o0splitpaw0o> I mean they can't
[03:30] <gili> much appreciated
[03:30] <Shadowpillar_> rogue780: and whatever you do, dont use the greater than or less than symbols :P
[03:30] <bulmer> np
[03:30] <gili> riotkittie: thanks
[03:30] <rogue780> Shadowpillar_, ?
[03:31] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt cool =)
[03:31] <bulmer> rogue780: he meant the redirections  > and  <
[03:31] <frogzoo_> gili: do you have a file /etc/asound.conf ?
[03:31] <P3nnywise> Any good scree capturing programs?
[03:31] <bulmer> P3nnywise: try xli
[03:31] <gili> frogzoo: i believe so one sec
[03:31] <rogue780> bulmer, I'm kind fo nobish...not sure what those do...
[03:32] <EnsignRedshirt> I've heard scree capturing is a dangerous sport.
[03:32] <P3nnywise> bulmer, ok
[03:32] <_dellfan_> rogue780: dont type the folder names anclosed in <>
[03:32] <P3nnywise> btw, does anyone in here know how to setup your wpa_supplicant?
[03:32] <_dellfan_> rogue780: for example: find MP3s -name '*mp3' -exec mv {} newMP3s/ \;

[03:33] <jochen> can someone give me some information about usb drivers
[03:33] <gili> frogzoo: actually i dont...
[03:33] <gili> no asound.conf in the etc dir
[03:33] <gili> should it be somewhere else?
[03:33] <frogzoo_> gili: that's a good thing, it can stop sound working
[03:33] <gili> ok
[03:34] <Gasten> Hi. I'm trying to get internet to work with linux on my laptop. I'm not sure that it supports linux, nor am I sure if I'm to bad to configure my router right. It's D-Link with WLan.
[03:34] <bottazzo> well.. i remove apache files from my ubuntu.. and now i reinstall it with apt-get .. but when i try apache start.. it says that it did not find /usr/lib/apache2/files ...
[03:34] <bottazzo> how can i reinstall /usr/lib/apache2 files?
[03:34] <gili> i am pretty sure its this evil-zombie process called "play" will look it up...!!
[03:34] <bulmer> jochen: i can point you to a device driver book, i dont know myself how to write usb drivers.. http://lwn.net/Kernel/LDD3/
[03:35] <bottazzo> apt-get install apache 2 does not install /usr/lib/apache2 files =[ .. only /etc/apache2 files
[03:35] <frogzoo_> gili: reboot & see
[03:35] <jochen> bulmer: cheers, I will look that up
[03:36] <bulmer> bottazzo: look at the guts of the "apache start" script and see how it calls the apache and what env variables it uses to look those files up
[03:36] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt i just downloaded freemat.tar.gz and extracted it, could u tell me how to install it?
[03:36] <KenSentMe> bottazzo: i presume you type apt-get install apache2 instead of apache 2?
[03:36] <Opermax> Hi all!
[03:36] <HymnToLife> !info freemat

[03:39] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt thx alot for the great tips =)
[03:40] <EnsignRedshirt> Balsamic_Chicken: freemat looks interesting, I'll have to try it some time (but not now).  They have an rpm for Fedora Core 6; too bad they don't have a deb for debian/ubuntu.
[03:40] <Gasten> Hi. I'm trying to get internet to work with linux on my laptop. I'm not sure that it supports linux, nor am I sure if I'm to bad to configure my router right. It's D-Link with WLan. Can I do anything about this? Can I confirm that I can't do anything?
[03:40] <Opermax> frogzoo: there is no ubuntu wifi channel!
[03:40] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt i know =)

[03:41] <EnsignRedshirt> Ciao, y'all.
[03:41] <Balsamic_Chicken> EnsignRedshirt :-)
[03:41] <Balsamic_Chicken> bye
[03:41] <P3nnywise> bulmer, i have that but it can only take photos ;/
[03:41] <trygve-u> KenSentMe: Thank you
[03:41] <Gasten> Opermax, I've heard that some routers doesn't work with Linux. I want to make sure that I got one of those...
[03:41] <JosefK> frogzoo_: that's exactly what I want :) thanks
[03:41] <Opermax> i don't know about routers, but it's the WLAN-Card in your laptop that has to work, isn't it?
[03:42] <riotkittie> Gasten: i'm useless when it comes to routers. you may want to try searching the forums with your router model as a keyword. chances are, there's a post regarding it with info ginev step by step
[03:42] <bulmer> P3nnywise: do System->Take Screenshot, select Other in Save in folder and press ctrl-l.
[03:42] <odla> sometimes GDM fails to start and GNOME fails to shutdown with me killing X ... should i file a bug report?
[03:43] <Gasten> Opermax, Yeah, that migth be it, too.
[03:43] <yamama> hello
[03:43] <Gasten> riotkittie, Thanks
[03:43] <Asturia> any squid guru here?
[03:43] <Opermax> because the router doesn't care as long the signals form your WLAN are crrect
[03:43] <yamama> what is the different between Xubuntu and ubuntu ???
[03:43] <P3nnywise> bulmer, i dont have 'take screenshot' in system
[03:43] <_james> how to unzip zip.gz file?
[03:43] <bulmer> Opermax: what ever nic card you have on your laptop has to be working first
[03:44] <odla> yamama: xu = xfce ub = gnome
[03:44] <Gasten> yamama, Interface, how ou do stuff, performance, etc.
[03:44] <KenSentMe> !xubuntu | yamama
[03:44] <ubotu> yamama: xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels
[03:44] <HymnToLife> _james, gunzip it first to get a regular zip, and then unzip
[03:44] <_james> whats the command to unzip  "zip.gz" file?
[03:44] <_james> ok
[03:44] <Balsamic_Chicken>  in installing freemat (free matlab), it said there are two post-build steps i must perform, which adds freemat_path environment variable to my startup files that includes /home/username/share/FreeMat/MFiles, totally lost =) what does this mean, and where's my startup files, and how do i follow this instruction, thx so much =)
[03:44] <bulmer> P3nnywise: thats a different linux..
[03:44] <yamama> i want to download xubuntu how ??

[03:45] <P3nnywise> bulmer, lol :p any other screen capturing programs?
[03:45] <KenSentMe> _james: gunzip file.gz
[03:45] <riotkittie> yamama: do you have ubuntu at the moment?
[03:45] <bulmer> P3nnywise: am not using those kind of apps much..sorry
[03:45] <yamama> yes
[03:45] <riotkittie> yamama: from the command line, sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop                ... or search for it in the package manager of your choice
[03:46] <riotkittie> once you install, you can choose xfce from the session menu at login.
[03:47] <_james> i downloaded a theme for gnome.. now how can i install the theme?

[03:51] <Shane-S> as per the http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?s=9aa6bd176d9fb39c926ba9812171c667&p=535019&postcount=10 post I placed it in the mods-enabled folder and did the other recommended changes, will re-check to confirm
[03:51] <Jon335> how do I make Ubuntu turn the backlight of my LCD off after a certain amount of time?
[03:51] <Balsamic_Chicken> Azul all synaptic gave was a bunch of libarary like files that had the phrase qt4 in it =(
[03:51] <bayziders> What is a very cheap around 15gb laptop that can run ubuntu well and has a touch mouse that one or any of you guys would recomend?
[03:51] <KenSentMe> gandalfcome: hmm, too bad then. I run big desktop without problems
[03:51] <Azul> Balsamic_Chicken, weird, i got only results showing qt4 and qt4 libraries
[03:51] <incorrect> im trying to install sun-java5 on dapper, but i can't figure out why its not in my pkg list
[03:52] <Azul> Balsamic_Chicken, search qt4
[03:52] <gandalfcome> KenSentMe: do you have a laptop or desktop pc
[03:52] <KenSentMe> !jave | incorrect
[03:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jave - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:52] <KenSentMe> gandalfcome: desktop
[03:52] <incorrect> !java
[03:52] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository
[03:52] <frogzoo_> incorrect: iirc sun-java5 is edgy
[03:52] <Azul> incorrect, you can't find java in the repositories.. it's not free
[03:52] <xopher> Im trying to enable freq.scaling on my Celeron M CPU, but for some reason dont have this dir: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq ? And I cant load acpi-cpufreq module either, complains about device not found.

[03:52] <yamama> sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[03:52] <IdleOne> frogzoo_: dapper also
[03:53] <gandalfcome> KenSentMe: well that doesnt help me that much, but thanks again for listening ;-)
[03:53] <bulmer> incorrect: perhaps dapper was made before Sun made java a gpl 2 available
[03:53] <frogzoo_> IdleOne: kk
[03:53] <IdleOne> Azul: java5 is in repos
[03:53] <incorrect> thats all very well and good, but i have multiverse
[03:53] <KenSentMe> gandalfcome: :)
[03:53] <Shane-S> here is my ls of mods-enabled: cgi.load  php5.conf  php5.load  rewrite.load  userdir.conf  userdir.load

[03:53] <CThoma> hi @all
[03:53] <najjstroem0050> I found a problem and i need help, My sound works on the backside of the computer but not my mic, but my mic work on the front side but not my sound!!!!!!
[03:53] <CThoma> can someone help me with Ubuntu Server 6.10?
[03:54] <frogzoo_> najjstroem0050: sounds like your comps wiring
[03:54] <Azul> CThoma, no one knows until you ask
[03:54] <KenSentMe> Shane-S: did you restart apache with sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[03:54] <najjstroem0050> frigzoo_ what you mean :P
[03:54] <Azul> najjstroem0050, yeah, check your wiring
[03:54] <Asturia> where are the passwords located for all the users configurated on an ubuntu system?
[03:54] <CThoma> well, i cant get a inet connection via DSL modem
[03:54] <frogzoo_> CThoma: can you ping localhost?
[03:54] <bulmer> Shane-S  you need to address your responses to the nick you're referring to, otherwise it'll get lost or ignored
[03:54] <Shane-S> yes, and had an erro about the servername, so I even edited apache2.conf and Added ServerName www.mydomain.com
[03:55] <KenSentMe> Shane-S: and then restarted again?
[03:55] <CThoma> frogzoo:yes i can
[03:55] <frogzoo_> CThoma: kk, how do you connect, through a dsl router, or a modem?
[03:55] <Shane-S> KenSentMe:  Yes, resolved any warnings/errors it had and loaded, it can view the site..but
[03:55] <bulmer> Asturia: /etc/passwd used by /etc/shadow
[03:55] <CThoma> a normal modem
[03:56] <CThoma> got it from my provider.
[03:56] <Shane-S> KenSentMe: when I load the mod-rewrite pages they appear without being "re-written"
[03:56] <frogzoo_> CThoma: have you configure /etc/network/interfaces for dhcp?
[03:56] <Jon335> how do I make Ubuntu turn the backlight of my LCD off after a certain amount of time?
[03:56] <KenSentMe> Shane-S: maybe there are some errors in /var/log/apache2/error.log
[03:56] <frogzoo_> Jon335: sys -> prefs -> power
[03:56] <Jon335> frogzoo_, thanks!
[03:57] <CThoma> yes i enabled DHCP
[03:57] <Shane-S> let me check , brb
[03:57] <Jon335> frogzoo_, don't see anything there
[03:57] <frogzoo_> Jon335: also check screensaver preferences
[03:57] <Jon335> frogzoo_, I've looked in both
[03:57] <speyer> im connected to my other windows machine via smb and i would like to be able to play the divx files any idea why i cannot play them ?
[03:57] <frogzoo_> Jon335: edgy?
[03:57] <ajopaul_> have two sound cards, how do i make one of the default? and am not on gnome
[03:57] <Jon335> frogzoo_, yes
[03:57] <frogzoo_> Jon335: "put display to sleep..." under ac & battery
[03:58] <Jon335> frogzoo_, hmm, that's set but it doesn't work. the command 'xset dpms force off' does what I want it to do
[03:59] <CThoma> How can i use gnome oder kde on ubuntu server?
[03:59] <frogzoo_> Jon335: in screensaver, set "consider computer idle when inactive for.."
[03:59] <pcollaog> helo!
[03:59] <Shane-S> KenSentMe: Nope, the errors are file not found errors, because the path is not being re-written, I take it I should ask ##apache about my rule?
[04:00] <Jon335> frogzoo_, that's set too, it just gives a blank screen with the backlight still on
[04:00] <pcollaog> i need a little help with ubuntu feisty... doesn't init :(
[04:00] <Shane-S> I just don't understand why it would not work, as my windows box is running apache 2 as well
[04:00] <Lorian> Hey, I'm trying to install Ubuntu or my parents PC using the Windows based installer that was just released, but when I try to boot into it it stays on the screen with the Ubuntu logo for a few minutes before throughing me to a terminal saying that it can't access tty because job control is turned off...
[04:00] <Jon335> frogzoo_, wheras 'xset dpms force off' actually does it
[04:00] <frogzoo_> CThoma: try 'sudo ifup eth0'
[04:00] <KenSentMe> Shane-S: maybe you'd better check ##apache indeed
[04:00] <bulmer> Jon335: I dont own a laptop, but something about sleep.sh using vbetool dpms.. use find sleep.sh on your ubuntu
[04:01] <CThoma> Frogzoo_: Ok, eth0 is up and running, its my only NIC installed
[04:01] <Jon335> bulmer, it isn't a laptop
[04:01] <Shane-S> ty for trying to help!
[04:01] <plantperson> Should I install all these updates?
[04:01] <frogzoo_> Jon335: also select under general "dim panel when idle"
[04:01] <Lorian> Anyone?
[04:01] <bulmer> Jon335: anyhow, maybe that script may help you, look insdie the guts of it
[04:01] <plantperson> There's 216 of them,  on Dapper
[04:01] <Jon335> frogzoo_, don't see that option
[04:02] <frogzoo_> Lorian: is this feisty you're trying to install?
[04:02] <Lorian> Edgy
[04:02] <frogzoo_> Jon335: power -> general
[04:02] <Jon335> frogzoo_, that option isn't there
[04:03] <CThoma> could squid be the problem?
[04:04] <krychek> hi, i tried easyubuntu.. it was working fine, but after i installed a few things it just doesnt work anymore, i try to install something but it just hangs
[04:04] <pcollaog> my ubuntu feisty doesn't start... can't find volumeid with kernel 2.6.20-5.7
[04:04] <Reliant> I've got a really strange problem. My harddrive spontaneously became read-only
[04:05] <pcollaog> i think ... the problem should be in initrd.img-2.6.20-5-generic
[04:05] <M_Fatih> hi
[04:05] <Jon335> frogzoo_ and bulmer, '/usr/share/acpi-support/screenblank' does the trick, any ideas how to use it?
[04:05] <PsychoChicken> Rellant: is it a Linux fs or a windows partition?
[04:05] <M_Fatih> how can i change my partition label? i have a external disk and disk has 2 partition, 1 of fat32 and other ext3.. how can i change labels?
[04:05] <Reliant> Linux (Ubuntu), reiser
[04:06] <Reliant> I noticed the problem when MySQL started giving me error 30 (can't write to DB), and I can't edit any files, everything gets opened as read-only. I don't want to reboot in case the box doesn't come up until I know what's going on
[04:06] <theflyingfool> how do i open a rar file
[04:06] <Reliant> I have available disk space, that's not the problem
[04:06] <Lorian> install unrar
[04:06] <frogzoo_> pcollaog: feisty this way -> #ubuntu+1
[04:06] <frogzoo_> M_Fatih: tune2fs
[04:07] <booster> ubuntu.pl
[04:07] <Lorian> Then unrar e [filename]
[04:07] <PsychoChicken> Rellant: probably can't help you then. had a similar issue once with a vfat system and it turned out the driver switches to read-only if it detects an error. might be worth fscking it though.
[04:07] <ajopaul_> theflyingfool, sudo apt-get install unrar
[04:07] <booster> oops
[04:07] <theflyingfool> ajopaul_: thnkx
[04:07] <CThoma> Can someone tell me how to install Gnome or KDE on Ubuntu Server 6.10? *please ;)*
[04:07] <frogzoo_> CThoma: if eth0 is up, does ifconfig show you with an internet ip?
[04:07] <Reliant> Well, one reason I came in here, when I do df, I notice there's a /proc/bus/usb with stats matching /dev/hda2. Is that normal?
[04:08] <CThoma> Frogzoo_:No it doesn't
[04:09] <frogzoo_> CThoma: are you supposed to connect with pppoe ?
[04:09] <Reliant> procbususb            37982564  34747260   1305900  97% /proc/bus/usb
[04:09] <b52laptop> hello
[04:09] <b52laptop> is it possible to install python2.4.3
[04:09] <Reliant> it's the same size as my / partition
[04:09] <b52laptop> apt-cache search tell me just that there is python2.4

[04:25] <Jowi> Reliant, haven't seen this before. normally procbususb would not show up in df
[04:25] <jak1> I hadn't ever build my own Makefile - just use some one else made of

[04:26] <Reliant> Jowi, yeah, I noticed it around when I upgraded Ubuntu to the latest stable a few weeks ago, but at the same time, I transferred the harddrive into a new machine

[04:29] <pty> najjstroem0050: if you look in Desktop -> Preferences -> Multimedia Systems Selector
[04:29] <Jowi> Reliant, can you pastebin fstab just for a quick look
[04:29] <Reliant> well, if you look at the mount list, you'll see / is mounted ro with errors, that's the one I'm trying to solve, and this procusbbus is one thing I'm looking at as a possible cause of that problem
[04:29] <jak1> bulmer: where I can download it?
[04:29] <Shizlanski> shud i use ext2 or ext3 filesystem?

[04:32] <najjstroem0050> Removeable drives and media pty?
[04:32] <Shizlanski> ok thanks :)
[04:32] <Jowi> Reliant, maybe the UUID in fstab is edgy specific. I only use dapper so I have not seen that before.
[04:32] <erUSUL> Shizlanski: http://www.troubleshooters.com/linux/ext2toext3.htm
[04:33] <TxPitou> 1) I have internal 11b network card on this toshiba, the Network apps see the Eth1, but I cannot get it to see any networks (even though this interface works under windows just fine)
[04:33] <Shizlanski> thanks! ^_^

[04:33] <N1k_85> hi... I'm about to reinstall ubuntu and I have no idea what are the diferences between dapper, breezy, edgy ? wich one should i pick ?
[04:33] <najjstroem0050> yes
[04:33] <najjstroem0050> pty: yes
[04:34] <pty> najjstroem0050: right click -> open volume control
[04:34] <unop> _james, what do you mean by "system themes"?
[04:34] <Shizlanski> 1 more Q sorry. in this page it says logon as root to change ext2 to ext3, could i just sudo the commands instead?
[04:34] <najjstroem0050> pty: done
[04:34] <pty> then file -> change device
[04:34] <Lunar_Lamp> I used "adduser" to add a user to my Edgy server.  However they do not have bash as their default shell - how do I change this?
[04:34] <Jowi> Reliant, check what's causing hda2 to mount readonly
[04:34] <unop> N1k_85, go for edgy, it's the latest stable
[04:34] <frogzoo_> najjstroem0050: not in edgy, no
[04:34] <snide> hey guys wtf is up with ubuntu version? after i dled and installed xubuntu v6.10 amd64 .. its version says 6.06 .. wtf
[04:34] <snide> sorry im little pissy because i dont want to be leave with all buggy
[04:35] <Byan> snide: thats dapper drake
[04:35] <jak1> bulmer: thanks, but some how I do not want to use Automake :) I'm searching quite simple example what can build several different programs from one makefile
[04:35] <snide> yeah i know
[04:35] <snide> yi wanted edgy
[04:35] <snide> but yet the title says 6.10
[04:35] <Reliant> Jowi, what's the command to run a check on hda2 (ext3) ?
[04:35] <frogzoo_> Lunar_Lamp: chsh
[04:35] <jak1> if you understand what I'm saying :)
[04:35] <mgedmin> Lunar_Lamp: adduser --shell /bin/bash
[04:35] <riotkittie> wee. i broke x again. :\
[04:35] <bic> my installation is frozen at 22% :\
[04:35] <najjstroem0050> pty can we take this i privv or on msn, hard to concentrate when 30 people writing at same time
[04:35] <unop> snide, how are you checking the version?
[04:35] <_james> i mean the icons.. i downloaded a themes on gnome-look.org and i don't know how to install the system icons.. can someone help me?
[04:35] <erUSUL> Shizlanski: yes, all of this is better done from a livecd so the filsystems are umounted
[04:35] <Lunar_Lamp> mgedmin, isn't there a config file? I thought it was /etc/users but the file doesn't exist.
[04:35] <snide> ooh i meant when i was downloading the xbuntu installation
[04:35] <snide> the .iso file
[04:35] <bulmer> jak1: I have not finished actually started reading that book, but thats the basis for .configure that turns it into a bigger Makefile
[04:35] <snide> it says 6.10
[04:35] <snide> edgy
[04:36] <pty> najjstroem0050: only have irc at work sorry
[04:36] <mgedmin> Lunar_Lamp: man adduser tells me there's /etc/adduser.conf
[04:36] <snide> but now after done installation, it says 6.06
[04:36] <najjstroem0050> pty can you send a private msg to me then?
[04:36] <TxPitou> 1) I have internal wireless 802. 11b network card on this Toshiba laptop, the Network apps see the Eth1, but I cannot get it to see any networks (even though this interface works under windows just fine)
[04:36] <unop> _james,  you can install thm using the gnome-theme-manager
[04:36] <N1k_85> unop thanks, also i have a amd64 so is there a significant performance boost taking the amd64 version ? im very new to ubuntu and some things arent working for me on the amd64 version i have now, would it be wise to try the 386 to make my life easier ?
[04:36] <Jowi> Reliant, fsck.ext3 /dev/hda2 (man fsck)
[04:36] <snide> how do i check my xbuntu's current version .. like the one on windows xp? like ver command
[04:36] <Jowi> Reliant, also check /var/log/messages
[04:36] <bulmer> TxPitou: you activated the on/off switch for your wifi card?
[04:36] <jak1> bulmer: something like this -> http://web.mit.edu/gnu/doc/html/make_16.html
[04:36] <frogzoo_> _james: install gnome-art, then just drag into the app
[04:37] <unop> !version | snide
[04:37] <ubotu> snide: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type 'lsb_release -a' in the Terminal.
[04:37] <_james> ok thnx i'll try
[04:37] <snide> alright ill try both
[04:37] <najjstroem0050> pty: can you send a private msg to me then?
[04:37] <snide> ty
[04:37] <TxPitou> Bulmer : Yes the Wifi Card is ON, I did a hardinfo and it sees the hardware
[04:37] <kane77> !nfs
[04:37] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[04:37] <frogzoo_> !themes | _james
[04:37] <ubotu> _james: Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[04:37] <Reliant> only thing in messages that stands out:
[04:37] <Reliant> Jan 17 07:37:27 localhost exiting on signal 15    Jan 17 07:37:28 localhost syslogd 1.4.1#18ubuntu6: restart.
[04:37] <jak1> that's best example what I found but I do not understand it very well
 Lunar_Lamp: man adduser tells me there's /etc/adduser.conf <== that's the conf file for adduser, not users on the system
[04:37] <bulmer> jak1: use it as reference then to build up one to customize your needs
[04:37] <Reliant> the system didn't reboot at that time
[04:38] <unop> N1k_85, well, you will obviously get the most out of ubuntu if you install the 64bit version -- but at the moment, it also means you need to do a little more work getting some non-64bit applications working
[04:38] <bic> my installation is frozen at 22%
[04:38] <snide> hm i apologize .. it says v6.10 edgy .. obviously the mozilla introduction website must be wrong
[04:38] <Reliant> Inodes that were part of a corrupted orphan linked list found.  Fix<y>? yes     <--- could this be hardware?
[04:38] <snide> ty guys lol
[04:38] <bulmer> TxPitou: do you have your own AP? or using someone else?
[04:38] <AzMoo_> Lunar_Lamp, are you looking for /etc/passwd ?
[04:38] <Lunar_Lamp> AzMoo_, THANKS! that's the eone
[04:39] <Lunar_Lamp> I just couldn't remember the file
[04:39] <AzMoo_> np
[04:39] <mgedmin> Lunar_Lamp: well, what do you want to know?  the currently selected shell for a user (it's in /etc/passwd, changeable with chsh) or the default shell that will be selected when you add new users (it's in /etc/adduser.conf)
[04:39] <TxPitou> bulmer Ap ?
[04:39] <jak1> bulmer: I think I do that, but how do I split one makefile to several files and include those makefiles what current progrman needs
[04:39] <bulmer> TxPitou: access point
[04:39] <riotkittie> Access Point
[04:39] <snide> hold on, it says "No LSB modules are available"  what does that mean?
[04:39] <jak1> that's one problem where I didn't find any help yet
[04:39] <N1k_85> unop thanks, I guess i'll go 64 and learn the way it's done
[04:39] <unop> Lunar_Lamp, errm, just beware - don't edit /etc/passwd directly -- you should be using addusers for that
[04:39] <lihaitao> Hi, I got this strange issue. DNS not working, i can only using IP address, but firefox can use domain name after i disabled "network.dns.disableIPv6" of firefox, what's the problem? ubuntu feisty
[04:39] <Jowi> Reliant, the inodes store the informations about files and directories so that could possibly be it.
[04:39] <Lunar_Lamp> unop, I've edited /etc/passwd many times before directly....
[04:40] <freakynl> anyone know if there are kernel packages with klips instead of netkey available?
[04:40] <bulmer> jak1: thats the reason I suggested reading that book on autoconfig, automake, it gives you the baseline on how to build Makefiles in sub-dirs and work your way up to the root Makefile
[04:40] <TxPitou> bulmer, Yes my own router I have 2 other laptops using it here, I have tested this Wifi using windows (swap hard drives) and it works fine. I also have a spare Airlink 101 54g card (pcmcia)  same thing hardinfo reconizes the hardware but doesnt use it
[04:40] <unop> Lunar_Lamp, well, no problem with that - but just beware of the implications if you botch the file up
[04:40] <e\ectro> Does anyone have a suggestion for using a mysql based dns server?  I looked at mydns and the web interface is severly lacking..  thanks!
[04:40] <Reliant> well, this drive has been to Bulgaria and back in my luggage, and it's quite a few years old, so I wouldn't be surprised at hardware failure
[04:40] <snide> it says "No LSB modules are available"  what does that mean?
[04:41] <Jowi> Reliant, unfortunatly I need to go now. good luck.
[04:41] <Lunar_Lamp> unop, oh right, I hadn't thought of that. I presume that would render the machine unable to be logged into.
[04:41] <bulmer> TxPitou: what does ifconfig -a tell you about that wifi card? its recognize as which? eth0 or wlan0?
[04:41] <jak1> bulmer: ok, thanks you guidance... I try to solve my problem now on... thanks again
[04:41] <Reliant> ok, thanks for your help Jowi
[04:41] <Jowi> np Reliant
[04:41] <Reliant> I'll be looking into a replacement drive
[04:41] <unop> Lunar_Lamp, well, that depends on how botched up the file is -- the safest way to add a user is by using adduser/addgroup
[04:42] <bulmer> jak1: np
[04:42] <Reliant> they're really cheap anyway, and I get a nice upgrade
[04:42] <TxPitou> bulmer -->eth1      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:02:2D:24:28:59
[04:42] <Shizlanski> Q:  I understand you cant write to NTFS (nicely) but is it fine to copy from it over to another ext3 or FAT32 drive?
[04:42] <_james> i have a system icon.. and when i try to drag it  to install it says that the it is an invalid format.. can someone help me
[04:42] <TxPitou> bulmer isnt that a cat5 definition ?
[04:42] <bulmer> TxPitou: yes, how about for the wifi?
[04:42] <TxPitou> bulmer that IS the wifi,, the eth0 is the CAt5 I am using right now to talk to you
[04:42] <bulmer> TxPitou: cat 5 , you meant your ethernet nic..
[04:43] <freakynl> Shizlanski: yea, ntfs3g can write to it ok tho'
[04:43] <TxPitou> bulmer yes
[04:43] <Shizlanski> k thanks
[04:43] <bulmer> TxPitou: now try iwconfig eth0
[04:43] <njl> is there any program to store a complete website?
[04:43] <freakynl> Shizlanski: it's slow like hell btw if you need to do a lot :). don't use it for raring/parring dvd images n such it'll be really slow
[04:43] <lupine_85> wget --mirror
[04:44] <apokryphos> njl: wget's good. Check out the manual page.
[04:44] <apokryphos> if rsync's available that's better
[04:44] <TxPitou> bulmer eth0      no wireless extensions.
[04:44] <Enselic`> Is it possible to play embedded .wmv in Firefox?
[04:44] <adub> can someone help me with intalling the loading screen for gnome like i want to change the loading screen theme
[04:44] <adub> where do i change this at
[04:44] <instabin> could some one help me with installing the bianary nvidia driver
[04:44] <adub> like the default is brown or something
[04:44] <TxPitou> bulmer but eth1 gives me eth1      IEEE 802.11b  ESSID:""  Nickname:"HERMES I"
[04:44] <TxPitou>           Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.457 GHz  Access Point: Not-Associated

[04:44] <TxPitou>           Power Management:off
[04:44] <unop> Enselic`, yes, install the totem or mplayer plugins for firefox
[04:44] <Shaezsche> how can i make a script that prompts for root password BEFORE executing commands?
[04:44] <Guvrok> hm
[04:45] <instabin> Synaptic onlny has nvida-glx-legacy and not nvidia-glx
[04:45] <Enselic`> unop, I've done that, but it says (no video)
[04:45] <Enselic`> unop, when I try to view a vide
[04:45] <instabin> how do i get nvidia-glx to show up
[04:45] <bulmer> TxPitou: umm try the system -> administration -> networking  is the card recognize?
[04:45] <unop> Enselic`, well, in firefox -- check about:plugins to see if the plugins are loaded properly
[04:45] <bulmer> TxPitou: it is recognized..i typed before i read your response
[04:45] <freakynl> Shaezsche: su -c <scriptname> ?
[04:45] <rogue780> is there a command line tool to set a static ip?
[04:46] <freakynl> rogue780: permanently or one time? one time use ifconfig
[04:46] <unop> Shaezsche,  use sudo inside the script
[04:46] <Shaezsche> freakynl i want to make an icon on the desktop
[04:46] <Shaezsche> unop i did and it doesnt work
[04:46] <TxPitou> bulmer yes I checked... but cannot get it to "see any networks' and my ssid is on broadcast
[04:46] <rogue780> freakynl, permanently
[04:46] <bulmer> TxPitou: umm try the system -> administration -> networking  and select your wireless and click on properties to set SSID etc
[04:46] <instabin> Well guess I'll try the legacy driver.......
[04:46] <freakynl> rogue780: wouldn't know
[04:46] <TxPitou> tbulmer okay let me try
[04:46] <adub> Can I change the loading screen?
[04:46] <freakynl> rogue780: not yet an ubuntu user, but usually one just edits the config files
[04:47] <unop> Shaezsche, well, has your sudo session timed out yet -- if it hasnt then sudo'll continue without prompting you for authentication
[04:47] <EnsignRedshirt> Has anyone tried the pc-to-phone calls in ekiga?
[04:47] <toutpt> hi there ! is someone can tell me the difference between 6.06 and 6.06.1 ???
[04:47] <rogue780> freakynl, right, but when you don't know what config files to edit...
[04:47] <toutpt> can t find on the web site
[04:47] <deb_noob> !nvidia
[04:47] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:47] <instabin> EnsignRedshirt I have made them in skype
[04:47] <Shaezsche> i want this script to ask me for a pass
[04:47] <Shaezsche> #!/bin/sh
[04:47] <Shaezsche>  sudo modprobe ipw2200
[04:47] <Shaezsche>  nm-applet --sm-disable
[04:47] <Delux_247> that tutorial for nvidia didn't work for me
[04:47] <unop> rogue780, i think you need /etc/networks/interfaces
[04:47] <instabin> Delux_247
[04:48] <instabin> that tutorial does work
[04:48] <Delux_247> when I try to nividia-glx-config  I get the: you don't have the right nividia module installe dof ryour kernel
[04:48] <Delux_247> im sure it works
[04:48] <Delux_247> it didn't work for me
[04:48] <Byan> can I use konqurer on gnome?
[04:48] <Shaezsche> unop?
[04:48] <instabin> Delux_247 what version
[04:48] <Delux_247> I have 6.10 and amd64 and nividia geforce 5500 fx
[04:48] <bulmer> Shaezsche: the sudo line will need a passwd so it will prompt you for one
[04:48] <instabin> Delux_247 You have to type the next command
[04:48] <unop> Shaezsche, errm, why dont you simply run the whole script using sudo then ?
[04:48] <Shaezsche> bulmer well it doesnt
[04:48] <Delux_247> ?
[04:49] <instabin> hold on

[04:49] <michaelpo> hi... i just installed ubuntu 6.06 last night.... it was halfway updating patches... i shutdown my laptop... slow connection.. 3kB/s only.... now i want to install some vcd / dvd library... it says problem connecting? i can access the web, irc, msn, yahoom, icq... what's wrong? did i click something wrongly lastnight?
[04:49] <Delux_247> I thought I was stuck b/c it said I don't have the right nvidia modules
[04:49] <bulmer> Shaezsche: maybe you can add a readline? that will block until your user inputted something
[04:49] <Delux_247> (yet I installed all possible nvidia modules seperately and tested(
[04:49] <michaelpo> i'm in malaysia. i just installed ubuntu 6.06 last night.... it was halfway updating patches... i shutdown my laptop... slow connection.. 3kB/s only.... now i want to install some vcd / dvd library... it says problem connecting? i can access the web, irc, msn, yahoom, icq... what's wrong? did i click something wrongly lastnight? malaysia mirror broken?
[04:49] <instabin> The command you where typing was for a previous version
[04:49] <serpenttiini> michaelpo: do you have desktop?
[04:49] <unop> Shaezsche, well, it should have worked -- open up another terminal and try the script out just to make sure you enter another sudo session
[04:49] <Delux_247> instabin: oooh
[04:50] <michaelpo> serpenttiini: i dont have desktop
[04:50] <Delux_247> old version of ubuntu? for 6.06
[04:50] <Delux_247> ?
[04:50] <instabin> Delux_247 type this sudo nvidia-xconfig
[04:50] <EnsignRedshirt> toutpt: 6.06.1 is a new release; it include updated packages on the CD.  I'm pretty sure you would end up with the same thing if you installed 6.06, and then updated via the internet.
[04:50] <serpenttiini> michaelpo: oh, I ment to say do you have wlan or cable?
[04:50] <Shaezsche> no i want to launch the script by double clicking it
[04:50] <EnsignRedshirt> *newer release
[04:50] <michaelpo> i downloaded 44 out of 97 last night... now cant continue...
[04:50] <riyonuk_> Im having trouble installing a gtk theme, its installed and says Im using it, but it looks nothing like the screenshot, if I change engines by typing switch2 it changes even more, what am I doing?
[04:50] <michaelpo> i have wlan... adsl router...
[04:50] <Delux_247> instabin: ok ill try that when I get home tonite, btw, do you know where the how to for the new version is?
[04:50] <TxPitou> bulmer : Hey it works now.. (I had not turned it on.. DUH!) now to configure it for WPA, seems I need drivers now.
[04:50] <unop> Shaezsche, well, errm, debug it before going on to have it desktop-ready
[04:50] <serpenttiini> michaelpo: ok, then I can't help you
[04:51] <instabin> Its the same one
[04:51] <bulmer> TxPitou: congrats...
[04:51] <instabin> Delux_247 it says "If you are running Edgy, type the following instead: "
[04:51] <Delux_247> instabin: ooh, ill read the whole doc first, then if its on there
[04:51] <Delux_247> I didn't see it
[04:51] <Delux_247> DOH!
[04:51] <Delux_247> ok thanks a lot instabin
[04:51] <instabin> lol
[04:51] <instabin> Welcome
[04:51] <unop> Shaezsche, errm, sorry, you'll need gksudo instead of sudo if you are going to double click
[04:52] <toutpt> thx a lot EnsignRedshirt
[04:52] <instabin> I cant get nvidia_glx to show up all i can see is nvidia-glx-legacy
[04:52] <TxPitou> bulmer, humm... so I need to find some WPA encryption setup somewhere... (I use WPA-TIK)
[04:52] <nystwysrt> i love ubuntu
[04:52] <TxPitou> tbulmer, and thank you for you help.. I di have another question
[04:52] <nystwysrt> :)
[04:52] <Delux_247> I have a severe problem of following directions to a T
[04:53] <Delux_247> sometimes I won't read the next step if the previous step failed
[04:53] <unop> TxPitou, yes, you might like to check !wpa_supplicant out
[04:53] <Delux_247> yet the next step will say smioething like: if that failed, try this
[04:53] <mark__o> I'm having codec problems. Has anyone had their wmv video way too bright?
[04:53] <Ubuntuguy> All: question re feisty.  I have a bare machine (HD not partitioned) that I booted with Toms Root Boot diskette.  I'd like to try feisty on it but it has no CD burner.  How can I use the iso (mounted via loopback) to start the installation?
[04:53] <TxPitou>  !wpa_supplicant out
[04:53] <bulmer> TxPitou: perhaps...i dont use wpa..
[04:54] <Delux_247> and I was gonna put ubuntu on my toshiba satelite pro laptop, any issues with the atheros wireless g drivers?
[04:54] <Delux_247> I've read that atheros + linux is still iffy
[04:54] <guerrillawon> That automounter worked perfectly, thank you.
[04:54] <erUSUL> !install | Ubuntuguy
[04:54] <ubotu> Ubuntuguy: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[04:54] <TxPitou> bulmer, I have to, Using Wireless headset that runs encryption, had to make network different as it interfered with it
[04:55] <PaulusVictor> Can anyone kindly point me to some kind of Linux codec pack?
[04:55] <bulmer> Ubuntuguy: you can mount an iso like so...  mount -o loop  /path/to/file.iso  /mnt

[04:55] <mikefoo> Hey I accidental did crontab -r -u root instead of crontab -e -u root and removed the crontab, anyway to get it back guys?
[04:55] <bulmer> TxPitou: i dont use wpa, perhaps you can select a different channel, you must set it in your AP
[04:56] <emss> ubuntu still uses md5 password hashes?
[04:56] <bulmer> mikefoo: maybe you can load the liveCD and look for a copy of cron file there?
[04:56] <unop> emss, in which context do you mean?
[04:57] <mark__o> perhaps there are multiple wmv codecs, and the one I have makes the video way too bright?
[04:57] <bic> im having trouble getting a cd to work, ive downloaded 3 different isos, and burned 3 different times, the lastest one i burned at 2x speed and when i did a cd check i got a bad checksum
[04:57] <bulmer> bic: mount the iso before burning it, check around the iso upon mounting..maybe you can spot something
[04:57] <Delux_247> bic: I would test your burner (hardware)
[04:58] <bic> how?
[04:58] <emss> unop: /etc/passwd?
[04:58] <krinns> hi all
[04:58] <bulmer> bic: you can mount an iso like so...  mount -o loop  /path/to/file.iso  /mnt
[04:58] <guerrillawon> hmmm My auI seem to have lost my sound? Is there anything I can do like reset settings in an attempt to get it back?
[04:58] <krinns> am going to install flash player in ubuntu
[04:58] <krinns> its asking for path
[04:58] <unop> emss, IIRC, ubuntu uses shadow passwords by deefault -- and yes, they are of some form of md5 hashes
[04:58] <krinns> where should it be
[04:59] <bic> i have no idea what you just said
[04:59] <krinns> default is /usr/lib/mozilla
[04:59] <snide> it says "No LSB modules are available"  what does that mean? (this is 3rd spam msgs)
[04:59] <krinns> but its not getting that path
[04:59] <mzuverink> in the prefered application settings for mail reader I would like it to use firefox and go directly to my gmail page.  is this possible?
[05:00] <bulmer> bic: man mount .... mount is the command to mount a filesystem into your linux
[05:00] <unop> snide, errm, it helps if you let people know the context of that error message otherwise they'll move on ? which command/action gave you that error?
[05:00] <snide> ooh after i typed in lsb_release -a
[05:01] <snide> i got the id of my os but that "no lsb modules" came on top
[05:01] <snide>  .. shrugs
[05:01] <snide> not a big deal , just thought that i should be concerned by that msg .. should i?
[05:02] <TxPitou> bulmer : mind another question, I have a pcmcia wireless card that does 54g (my network is 54g) I did the commands you told me last time but I am getting a different result and I am not sure if the hardware is being reconized or not.
[05:02] <unop> snide, hmm -- i think you need to install these package -- sudo aptitude install lsb lsb-common lsb-core lsb-release
[05:02] <riyonuk_> Im having trouble installing a gtk theme, its installed and says Im using it, but it looks nothing like the screenshot, if I change engines by typing switch2 it changes even more, what am I doing?
[05:03] <bulmer> TxPitou: on that system -> administration -> networking  would list all the cards it recognizes, or use dmesg to see it did detected it
[05:03] <snide> thanks unop, installing now
[05:04] <bulmer> am away

[05:06] <riotkittie> riyonuk_: is there a README in the theme? :P
[05:07] <riotkittie> and how did you install ... by dragging into theme manager, or manually?
[05:07] <AWOSLappy> Hello, I have a hex dump that saved in human-readable format...I need it to be in COMPUTER readable format
[05:08] <AWOSLappy> 00000346  8d c9 b2 ff fe e6 67 ff  ff ff fb 60 44 22 00 01 ......g. ...`D"..
[05:08] <AWOSLappy> ^ that's one of the lines of the file
[05:09] <riyonuk_> riotkittie, nope
[05:09] <AWOSLappy> so what can I do to make that into something the computer can open, as in, it's an executable
[05:09] <zylche> Hey, whenever I try to install any apps k3d tries to install itself, is there any command or file to remove/edit to stop it from getting automatically installed? [Using apt-get with dpkg]
[05:09] <TxPitou> anyone use an AIRLINK 101 (54g) pcmcia Card for wireless can lend me a hand on making it work ?
[05:09] <lovloss> Shot in the dark. Are there any html people in here who can explain to me without the elitist slander of #html, and explain to me how to use templates to make a static menu? i dont get it. 3 days of trying
[05:09] <rqveN`> lol
[05:09] <riyonuk_> it changes the windows but not the toolbar
[05:09] <maco> lovloss, static as in it doesnt move when you scroll or static as in "the order i typed it"?
[05:10] <lovloss> maco, in other words, each page has the exact same menu but different content beside it. Without heavy coding so itll be easily accessible.
[05:10] <lovloss> maco, I get templates, but they are problematic. You cant update the template and have it change every page
[05:10] <AWOSLappy> Is there a better channel to ask my question on?
[05:11] <SHRIKEE> AWOSLappy, just ask
[05:11] <AWOSLappy> I did already
[05:11] <SHRIKEE> oh
[05:11] <AWOSLappy> Hello, I have a hex dump that saved in human-readable format...I need it to be in COMPUTER readable format
[05:11] <AWOSLappy> 00000346  8d c9 b2 ff fe e6 67 ff  ff ff fb 60 44 22 00 01 ......g. ...`D"..
[05:11] <AWOSLappy> ^ that's one of the lines of the file
[05:11] <SHRIKEE> note that there are almost 1000 people ere...
[05:11] <AWOSLappy> it's an executable, so how can I make the COMPUTER read it
[05:11] <AWOSLappy> ?
[05:11] <SHRIKEE> binary?
[05:11] <SHRIKEE> :)
[05:11] <riyonuk_> I think murrina or switch2 messed some things up
[05:11] <AWOSLappy> hehe I know
[05:12] <unop> AWOSLappy, what does this command give you -- file /path/to/file
[05:12] <AWOSLappy> oh wow...um...I'm in Windows right now with an ext3 driver
[05:12] <unop> AWOSLappy, and the "human readable" form is the part at the right
[05:12] <AWOSLappy> Shall I reboot in to Linux?
[05:13] <unop> AWOSLappy, errm, to which OS does this file belong to? Windows or Linux?
[05:13] <AWOSLappy> unop I know that, but the 8c9b2fffee667ff is hexadecimal, and I need it to be the actual hexdecimal content OF the file
[05:13] <ramvi> EDGY: I've installed LAMP. Just some of my directories in /var/www shows up at <IP_ADDRESS>. PHP-scripts return: Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0. What's wrong?
[05:13] <AWOSLappy> unop it's on my ext3 drive, I have a driver in Windows to be able to read/write on it
[05:13] <unop> AWOSLappy, errm, that is the _actual_ hex representation of the file
[05:13] <AWOSLappy> I know that
[05:13] <dromer> hmm, I just formatted on ald ntfs-partition to ext3, but apperantly there is still a folder lost+found present, which I can't open
[05:13] <SHRIKEE> then what is your problem
[05:13] <TxPitou> anyone use an AIRLINK 101 (54g) pcmcia Card for wireless can lend me a hand on making it work ?
[05:13] <AzMoo> AWOSLappy, if you want to execute a file on windows you need to compile it for windows.
[05:13] <ramvi> Using php5, not php5-cgi
[05:14] <AWOSLappy> but it needs to BE the file, not so that I can read the hexadecimal but the computer can read the hexadecimal?
[05:14] <AWOSLappy> Do you see what I mean?
[05:14] <unop> AWOSLappy, that doesnt answer the question -- to which OS does this file belong to? i ask because you can have windows DLLs on a linux ext3 partition and vice-versa
[05:14] <AWOSLappy> the actual file, when opened in hexedit, shows 50 51 when it should just be 01
[05:14] <AWOSLappy> unop it's on Linux
[05:14] <AWOSLappy> it belongs to awilcox, uid 1003, on Ubuntu 6.06
[05:15] <unop> AWOSLappy, computers dont read hexadecimal -- they read files as binary .,.. errm, what exactly are you trying to do?
[05:15] <AWOSLappy> I'm trying to open it
[05:15] <AWOSLappy> fine, it's an MP3
[05:15] <AWOSLappy> I'm trying to play it
[05:15] <ramvi> It seems apache is automatically set up with hostnames and shit
[05:15] <SHRIKEE> lol
[05:15] <AWOSLappy> but it's in stupid hexdump format
[05:15] <zylche> Hey, whenever I try to install any apps k3d tries to install itself, is there any command or file to remove/edit to stop it from getting automatically installed? [Using apt-get with dpkg]
[05:15] <SHRIKEE> ive never heard of that AWOSLappy
[05:15] <unop> AWOSLappy, errm .. just open it in your media player .. bahh
[05:15] <AzMoo> hah
[05:15] <amigrave> what is the difference between edgy-updates and edgy-security ?
[05:16] <AWOSLappy> unop...
[05:16] <AzMoo> AWOSLappy, so you're trying to play a hex dump of an mp3 file?
[05:16] <TxPitou> anyone using a T30 MP3 Player from creative labs, ? when I plug it in the photo manager kicks on and I cannot see the device like an MP3 (like my other usb thumb drive devices)
[05:16] <AWOSLappy> neither amaroK nor windows media can open a file that looks like this: 000001D6  ed ef f2 f5 f7 fa fc fe  00 00 00 39 4c 41 4d 45 ........ ...9LAME
[05:16] <AWOSLappy> AzMoo exactly.
[05:16] <SHRIKEE> is there a decent app available for webcams which can upload the webcam images to a scp/ssh server?
[05:16] <dromer> how can I open this locked folder lost+found that's on my, just formatted to ext3, partiton?
[05:16] <ramvi> Apache returns: apache2: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using <IP_ADDRESS> for ServerName
[05:16] <unop> AWOSLappy, why can't you just copy the file over to your windows partition and play it?
[05:16] <marshall> whats up guys
[05:16] <marshall> can somebody tell me how to exit vim?
[05:16] <AWOSLappy> unop, it's in HEXDUMP format, not MP3 format
[05:16] <AzMoo> marshall, :q
[05:16] <unop> AWOSLappy, and just how did you get this hexdump?
[05:16] <AWOSLappy> marshall type :q
[05:16] <frogzoo_> dromer: leave lost+found alone, you've been warned
[05:17] <dromer> marshall: esc, :q
[05:17] <AWOSLappy> unop through ethereal
[05:17] <SHRIKEE> is there a decent app available for webcams which can upload the webcam images to a scp/ssh server?
[05:17] <dromer> frogzoo_: I don't understand, what is it and why is it 900mb?
[05:17] <marshall> ok, thanks AzMoo, AWOSLappy, and dromer
[05:17] <dromer> :)
[05:17] <AWOSLappy> marshall no problem :D
[05:17] <rindolf> Hi all!
[05:17] <ramvi> I've installed LAMP,but only some of my directories in /var/www shows up in my browser. PHP-scripts return: Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0. What's wrong? It seems apache is automatically set up with hostnames or something..? Apache returns: apache2: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using <IP_ADDRESS> for ServerName. What do I do?
[05:18] <frogzoo_> dromer: when fsck runs, any blocks it can't figure out what to do with, it moves to lost+found - there shouldn't be anything there if it's a newly formatted partition
[05:18] <AWOSLappy> unop so um, is there anything I can do?
[05:18] <SHRIKEE> ramvi, set a server name in httpd.conf
[05:18] <tonyyarusso> ramvi: The files are world-readable?
[05:18] <rindolf> Where do I find debootstrap in the Ubuntu installation CD?
[05:18] <Lynx-> Does anyone know what packages are stored in the "proposed" repository?
[05:18] <dromer> frogzoo_: hmmm, I really just formatted it a couple hours ago with gparted
[05:18] <unop> AWOSLappy, uhhh .. errm, I have a hunch that you'll need to strip out the line numbers, ASCII translations, whitespace and newlines .. and that ought to give you an mp3 file
[05:18] <TxPitou> anyone use an AIRLINK 101 (54g) pcmcia Card for wireless can lend me a hand on making it work ?
[05:18] <TxPitou> anyone using a T30 MP3 Player from creative labs, ? when I plug it in the photo manager kicks on and I cannot see the device like an MP3 (like my other usb thumb drive devices)
[05:18] <dromer> frogzoo_: it was an ntfs-partition with all kinds of data
[05:19] <frogzoo_> dromer: well it's your data - use sudo to rm it
[05:19] <AWOSLappy> unop no.
[05:19] <dromer> but I have no idea what kind of data it could be, and I want to find out .. I just can't open it
[05:20] <SHRIKEE> isnt lost+found a sort of trashbin for cached data?
[05:20] <ramvi> SHRIKEE, tonyyarusso,  I'am in php-geek, but don't know much about configuring apache. It has always just worked.. I dont want to do anything advanced, only see my directories. What do I do in apache2.conf? Haven't changed anything there..
[05:20] <AWOSLappy> unop because if you open it in VI
[05:20] <ahmad`> does ubuntu has c compiler ? shuch like gcc
[05:20] <dromer> should I change the permissions (and how?) to my user?
[05:20] <rindolf> ahmad`: yes.
[05:20] <rindolf> ahmad`: apt-get install gcc
[05:20] <AWOSLappy> unop: you'll see 0f 0f a1 63 or stuff like that
[05:20] <SHRIKEE> ramvi if you want it to just work, use clarckconnect linux :P
[05:20] <AWOSLappy> unop: in VI
[05:21] <ahmad`> rindolf should it be connected to the internet in-order to install it ?
[05:21] <tonyyarusso> ramvi: I don't know if it's anything about your apache config.  Make sure that the permissions are a+r though
[05:21] <rindolf> ahmad`: yes.
[05:21] <Guvrok> Is anyone using Wine to play Windows games on Ubuntu?
[05:21] <AWOSLappy> unop so in hexedit you'll see 30 66 30 66 61 31 36 33
[05:21] <ahmad`> rindolf thanks for your help ;)
[05:21] <SHRIKEE> ramvi, <IP_ADDRESS> is not a FQDN so you have to set it to either localhost or some other domain
[05:21] <AWOSLappy> those hexadecimal bytes are in ASCII
[05:21] <AWOSLappy> they need to just be hexadecimal
[05:21] <ramvi> tonyyarusso, i've chowned it to my user..?
[05:21] <AWOSLappy> but they are saved in ASCII
[05:21] <lovloss> Guvrok I tried and failed
[05:22] <bresellu> ciao
[05:22] <Guvrok> lovloss, how come it failed?
[05:22] <bresellu> vi e qualhc eitaliano
[05:22] <tonyyarusso> ramvi: No......
[05:22] <AWOSLappy> now I need a program that can read the hexadecimal and convert it TO bytes IN the file--NOT ASCII
[05:22] <tonyyarusso> ramvi: Should be root:www-data, a+r
[05:22] <dromer> how can I change the permissions of this lost+found folder to my user so I can see the content?
[05:22] <AWOSLappy> !tell bresellu about it
[05:22] <maco> lovloss, use CSS
[05:22] <AWOSLappy> hmm
[05:22] <ramvi> SHRIKEE, hmm? I get the same page at 127 and localhost
[05:22] <tsoler> hello hello to all
[05:22] <Guvrok> What's CSS?
[05:22] <lovloss> maco CSS? I have that, whats it do?
[05:22] <maco> CSS layouts can have you edit the one file and change them all
[05:22] <riotkittie> !it | bresellu
[05:22] <ubotu> bresellu: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[05:22] <maco> cascading style sheets
[05:23] <SHRIKEE> offcoarse, but an ip addres cannot be a FQDN
[05:23] <lovloss> Guvrok becasuse windows made it that way
[05:23] <Guvrok> Will it help make Wine work with Ubuntu?
[05:23] <tsoler> guys need some help with boot sequence
[05:23] <lovloss> maco Really? that sounds like what it is
[05:23] <unop> AWOSLappy, you need to save the file as a binary -- converting each ASCII representation of those hexadecimal charcters into binary
[05:23] <unop> AWOSLappy, does that make it clearer now?
[05:23] <riotkittie> will what help wine work? CSS?!?
[05:23] <lovloss> i mean what i need
[05:23] <maco> you give each division of the page a <div> and then set all the locations and colors and stuff in CSS
[05:23] <Vigo> !wine|Guvrok
[05:23] <ubotu> Guvrok: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[05:23] <AWOSLappy> unop yeah, I know that, that is EXACTLY what I want to do
[05:23] <AWOSLappy> now
[05:23] <maco> lovloss, it wont change the CONTENT though, just style
[05:23] <AWOSLappy> what the heck do I use to DO that!?
[05:23] <Guvrok> Yeah, I kinda know what it is..
[05:23] <maco> for content you'd need php or server side includes
[05:23] <Guvrok> well, I'll just google :)
[05:24] <unop> AWOSLappy, errm, can you paste bin that dump .. i'll try it out with perl
[05:24] <lovloss> maco  So i cant change all the pages buttons at the same time?
[05:24] <Vigo> Guvrok: I just put it up for you
[05:24] <AWOSLappy> unop well it's 8MB
[05:24] <unop> AWOSLappy, well, a few lines will do then
[05:24] <tsoler> i v e got  os under this booting sequence 1. winxp 2. win2003
[05:24] <AWOSLappy> okay
[05:24] <lovloss> unop: if, say, i wanted to change all the backgrounds without touching the editable portions, could i?
[05:24] <Guvrok> I think I've been on that page before, Vigo.. I'm really very new to Ubuntu, so I'm having trouble getting things to work
[05:24] <Guvrok> Thanks a lot, though, I'll have a closer look after I've eaten.
[05:25] <unop> lovloss, err, whats this?
[05:25] <ramvi> tonyyarusso, thanks! sudo chmod -R a+r /var/www made my php-files work. The only dirs showing up though is: phpmyadmin and apache2-default..?
[05:25] <tsoler> if i install ubuntu wiil it be the default booting os?
[05:25] <n2diy> ! bugs

[05:25] <AzMoo> lovloss, the idea of CSS is to separate your styles (visual effects of webpages) from your html. Specifically to allow you to change all the elements on your page at once, etc.
[05:25] <tonyyarusso> ramvi: are there supposed to be more?
[05:25] <AWOSLappy> unop it starts at 00000146, because the first 145 bytes are from the HTTP request
[05:25] <Vigo> Guvrok: The forums are the place where people discuss and find resolutions
[05:25] <ramvi> tonyyarusso, yeah, I've got 6 sexy dirs there
[05:26] <tonyyarusso> huh
[05:26] <ramvi> the files at / is showing up. And the default dirs. But not "my" dirs
[05:26] <AWOSLappy> unop -- http://pastebin.com/861375
[05:26] <snide> any of you know which is the best 3d solution graphic card (not for gaming .. just for 3d modeling, animating, etc) ?
[05:26] <lovloss> *confused* well okay, ill look into them
[05:27] <AWOSLappy> snide well gaming and 3D modeling really have the same requirements to a certain extent, something that works well with gaming will certainly work well with 3D modeling
[05:27] <riotkittie> tsoler: yes but it will give you the option to boot into windows, and you can modify your grub settings to change the default or the delay
[05:27] <snide> really? cool, ty for the info
[05:27] <AWOSLappy> personally I feel that of course the NVIDIA GeForce series its the best, 8000 is super
[05:27] <AzMoo> lovloss, http://www.w3schools.com/css/
[05:27] <snide> what about the fx series?
[05:28] <AWOSLappy> snide I can't remember
[05:28] <AWOSLappy> those are either the best or the worst
[05:28] <ramvi> tonyyarusso, is it something with apache only allowing some dirs?
[05:28] <AWOSLappy> it's at one end :P
[05:28] <snide> yeah i guess so
[05:28] <tonyyarusso> ramvi: I'm not sure, that's odd
[05:28] <tsoler> riotkittie?
[05:28] <tonyyarusso> ramvi: Maybe a+x them as well (just the directories, not the files within)
[05:28] <tsoler>  riotkittie? can you give some privacy?
[05:29] <KenSentMe> I'm trying to compile a driver for my webcam. I searches for /usr/src/linux which doesn't exist on Ubuntu. Where should i let the driver compile to?
[05:29] <AzMoo> KenSentMe, got the linux-headers installed?
[05:29] <tsoler> how can i modify grub?
[05:29] <AzMoo> tsoler, /boot/grub/grub.conf
[05:30] <Enverex> Before I say anything, allow me to say AAAAARRGGGHH
[05:30] <KenSentMe> AzMoo: yes, there is /usr/src/linux-headers etc. Should i use that?
[05:30] <tonyyarusso> AzMoo: It's menu.lst...
[05:30] <AzMoo> tsoler, er, sorry, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:30] <AzMoo> KenSentMe, yep, that's what it's looking for.
[05:30] <tsoler> ill check this ruight now
[05:31] <AzMoo> tonyyarusso, yeah, my bad. grub.conf on gentoo ;)
[05:31] <tonyyarusso> AzMoo: Ah, figured something like that
[05:31] <cyphase> If I'm running Ubuntu in a virtual machine, and the host compute is also Ubuntu, how do i switch to a virtual console in the virtual machine?
[05:31] <AzMoo> anyway, I'm off.   I'm just making sure you are still here.
[05:33] <Vigo> Is the OpenVPN 2.0 supported by Ubuntu?
[05:33] <maco> lovloss, if you want to change all the font colors or all the background images or move all the navbars down a bit or turn all the links pink, use CSS
[05:33] <tonyyarusso> Vigo: 'apt-cache show openvpn'
[05:33] <jrib> cyphase: chvt looks like it might, but it doesn't.  May be a starting point though
[05:34] <Vigo> Thank you
[05:34] <lovloss> maco, im thinking dramatic changes
[05:34] <lovloss> maco like say, a new menu item
[05:34] <maco> lovloss, if you want to add another button to your menu, you'd have to make the menu using PHP or SSI and then put a little code inside your html (i dont know it because i dont do it) and itll call that php or ssi file to tell it what it should show in that space
[05:34] <unop> AWOSLappy, errm, gimme a couple of minutes
[05:34] <AWOSLappy> unop okay :)
[05:35] <lovloss> maco ... that doesnt sound hard o.o ive never used php..
[05:35] <maco> lovloss, if your server lets you, ssi is easier/smaller, from what i can tell. php requires a new language
[05:35] <Vigo> I still have to restore the Grub because I wiped XP off the drive and installed Win2k on it, lost boot loader =(
[05:35] <jrib> cyphase: it seems to work if I am in tty1 for example and switch to tty2, but not in X
[05:35] <tonyyarusso> !grub | Vigo

[05:35] <Enverex> Does anyone know of a "rolling distro" (like Gentoo) but that is binary rather than source?
[05:35] <Byan> how do I get laptop-mode enabled?
[05:36] <tonyyarusso> Enverex: Is that even possible?
[05:36] <GuerrillaWon> whew
[05:36] <riotkittie> Byan: sudo laptop-mode start
[05:36] <maco> vigo, i installed feisty on an external drive and now i can only boot edgy (on the internal) if i use the grub on the external to point to the internal one
[05:36] <AWOSLappy> bah, stupid LAN cable
[05:36] <GuerrillaWon> Trying to fix my sound I uninstalled my desktop
[05:36] <GuerrillaWon> !
[05:37] <Enverex> tonyyarusso, I'd assume so...
[05:37] <GuerrillaWon> Got it fixed but I thought I destroyed my computer *shakes fist at his lack of linux experience*
[05:37] <GuerrillaWon> Still no sound hah!
[05:37] <tonyyarusso> Enverex: You'd have lots of toolchain dependency conflicts and such I would think.  But then, I wouldn't necessarily know.  ;)
[05:37] <incorrect> :) my backport of subversion 1.4.2 to dapper goes well :D
[05:37] <kane77> how can I increase the mouse sensitivity?
[05:37] <Pici> GuerrillaWon : I learned to use linux by breaking things then fixing it myself :)
[05:37] <Byan> riotkittie: someone said to change something with acpi to change it? how do I have it auto-enabled..
[05:37] <riotkittie> GuerrillaWon: lspci ...  is the card shown there? and oh, stupid question, youre not muted, are you?
[05:38] <xopher> What applet is this? (The one that shows wifi signal strengt..) http://www.gnome.org/projects/gnome-power-manager/images/gpm-taskbar.png
[05:38] <Enverex> tonyyarusso, I love Ubuntu but I hate having to use really old software
[05:38] <GuerrillaWon> It's there riot, and I'm not sure how to check if I'm muted or not.
[05:38] <tonyyarusso> xopher: network-manager
[05:38] <tonyyarusso> -gnome
[05:38] <riotkittie> Byan: i'm not really sure. i havent bothered toying with acpi or laptop-mode
[05:38] <Byan> does anyone else know?
[05:39] <GuerrillaWon> DOH
[05:39] <frogzoo> how do you change themes under beryl? I've got the theme manager open, now how to change theme?
[05:39] <GuerrillaWon> It is muted
[05:39] <GuerrillaWon> How the heck...
[05:39] <apokryphos> ubotu: beryl | frogzoo
[05:39] <ubotu> frogzoo: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-xgl
[05:39] <riotkittie> GuerrillaWon:  aslamixer   ...   if there's an MM in master, youre muted. hit M to undo it. if there's a number there, just hit escape.
[05:39] <riotkittie> oh nm
[05:39] <frogzoo> apokryphos: k, thx
[05:39] <riotkittie> GuerrillaWon: :)
[05:39] <GuerrillaWon> No idea how it got muted. I swear when you're unsure of things you start acting like a 3 year old.
[05:40] <GuerrillaWon> Thanks roitkittie that's like the 9th time you've saved my butt.
[05:40] <riotkittie> glad to help ;)
[05:40] <DARKGuy> riotkittie's good at that :P
[05:41] <dwatson> Does anyone know how to set/get locale info on the system
[05:41] <kane77> how can I increase the mouse sensitivity? I want higher sensitivity without acceleration...
[05:41] <Vigo_> I thnk you kindly for the help and assistance, I am off to attempt a repair now.
[05:42] <unop> AWOSLappy, you there?
[05:42] <Enverex> kane77, Buy a better mouse quite simply
[05:42] <DARKGuy> wtf
[05:42] <parktownprawn> kane77: System>Preferences>Mouse Preferences
[05:42] <n2diy> kane77: system/pref/mouse
[05:42] <skript> how to partition my drive with the text-mode utility that is run when setting up the system ? what is this utility ? or is using fdisk the only way for text-mode partitioning ?
[05:42] <kane77> Enverex, I'm quite content with it...
[05:42] <Enverex> kane77, The mouse is what dictates how sensitive it is...
[05:42] <DARKGuy> dude, you'd laugh if I tell you I still use a ball mouse sometimes x)
[05:43] <Byan> is there an APP to see what the current CPU speed is?
[05:43] <fabiim> i'm not being able to use apt-get , due to "could not get lock .. " , i was running the graphical installer of packages and it crashed , and now i have unsolved dependencies , how do i unlock apt ?
[05:43] <kane77> Enverex, well in windows I had good sensitivity (meaning the speed)
[05:43] <n2diy> kane77: system/pref/mouse
[05:43] <xopher> I installed network-manager, and I have the applet running, but it tells me it cant detect a network? And I have my wireless connected ..
[05:43] <DARKGuy> fabiim: try to check if there's another apt process running with "ps -ax"
[05:43] <iturk> hi there is there any program for web developing like microsoft visual studio that when i open a html tab "<" i can select commands from a list ??
[05:44] <DARKGuy> fabiim: apt or dpkg, both can lock it.
[05:44] <riyonuk_> I cant get back the Human theme, I did and the borders are orange again, but the taskbar is all blue
[05:44] <Enverex> kane77, System >> Preference >> Mouse Preferences >> Motion > Sensitivity
[05:44] <kane77> n2diy, even on the highest sensitivity it's still too slow for my taste...
[05:44] <idefix> hey, who thought of the millennium change? was it you Enverex?
[05:44] <Enverex> idefix, The what?
[05:44] <n2diy> kane77: hmmm?
[05:44] <kane77> Enverex, n2diy and I dont like the acceleration...
[05:44] <idefix> the transition from 1999 to 2000
[05:44] <Enverex> kane77, If its too slow there then something is broken
[05:45] <Enverex> idefix, Why would anyone "think" of that? It just happens
[05:45] <najjstroem0050> WHAT IS THe command to see Sound card????
[05:45] <Pu1> Hi
[05:45] <fabiim> DARKGuy: tks :) solved
[05:45] <DARKGuy> fabiim: glad to have helped :)
[05:45] <PuG_> quick question, how can I force install a .deb file ?
[05:46] <n2diy> Enverex: kane77, first you said the acceleration couldn't be adjusted, which we just did, and now your saying the mouse is broken!?
[05:46] <kane77> Enverex, if I set acceleration to something higher then it.. well if i move mouse faster it moves the cursor faster... but I dont want that much of acceleration...
[05:46] <AWOSLappy> unop
[05:46] <AWOSLappy> unop can you just PM my shel acount when you
[05:46] <AWOSLappy> 're done?

[05:46] <AWOSLappy> oh
[05:46] <AWOSLappy> ?
[05:46] <kane77> Enverex, n2diy i'm not saying the mouse is broken..
[05:46] <AWOSLappy> Did it work
[05:46] <AWOSLappy> ?
[05:46] <Enverex> n2diy, Speed shouldn't be named Sensitivity
[05:47] <Enverex> Sensitivity is DPI, nothing to do with speed
[05:47] <marshall> i have just made the directory ~/bin and put all the scripts ive made in there. as far as i understand if ~/bin exists then i should be able to run my scripts as commands but it doesnt seem to be working... any ideas?
[05:47] <AWOSLappy> unop did it work or not?  and is there Perl code I can use?  I have a Windows AND Linux Perl interpreter
[05:47] <AWOSLappy> anyways

[05:48] <unop> AWOSLappy, ok, i'll pm you now
[05:48] <DARKGuy> PuG_: try typing "sudo dpkg --" then press tab twice and check the force options there. then "man dpkg" and read the options there.
[05:48] <AWOSLappy> unop thank you very much
[05:49] <PuG_> right will give it ago :)

[05:53] <brandis> hi all! does anyone know why the bittorrent tracker for ubuntu downloads isn't responding?
[05:53] <speyer> ls there a way to be able to play files with gmplayer via smb connection ?
[05:53] <speyer> mplayer does play the files
[05:53] <speyer> gmplayer not
[05:53] <brandis> smbfs?
[05:53] <AWOSDev> unop thanks
[05:53] <AWOSDev> bye!
[05:53] <speyer> any idea ?
[05:53] <unop> AWOSDev, ciao
[05:53] <AWOSDev> :D
[05:53] <unop> :)
[05:54] <speyer> brandis while im conecting via smb on my windows machine gmplayer does not play the files
[05:54] <PuG_> Wehn i try       dpkg -i | --install --force skype_debian-<IP_ADDRESS>-1_i386.debdpkg -i | --install --force skype_debian-<IP_ADDRESS>-1_i386.deb
[05:54] <MarcN> speyer: can you copy them to a local disk and play them there?  You could be missing the mp3 packages.
[05:54] <speyer> if i open a terminal and run mplayer smb://george/D/GEORGE/A.Litt...aven.2005.DVDRip.XviD-AEN.avi  works
[05:54] <jrib> !skype | PuG_

[05:55] <PuG_> comes up with dpkg: status database area is locked by another process
[05:55] <PuG_> one method is to force install for 64 bit :)
[05:55] <speyer> MarcN there is nothing missing with mplayer works with gmpayer it doenst
[05:55] <bic> huzzah, ubuntu installed
[05:55] <PuG_> problem is getting the force command to work heh
[05:55] <bic> bunt the cd with another computer
[05:55] <DARKGuy> PuG_: you need to kill the process that's locking it then
[05:55] <brandis> speyer: gmplayer may not support smb urls'; have you tried smbfs? i don't remember the details, but it's a module for mounting real mountpoints from a smb share

[05:56] <PuG_> can't see any process
[05:56] <brandis> speyer: but I have not tried with gmplayer so I may be way off
[05:56] <DARKGuy> PuG_: type "ps -ax" search for something along the lines of dpkg or apt and kill it using "kill ####" (#### is a number)

[05:57] <Byan> is there a nice place to get widgets for gdesklets?
[05:58] <lasindi> Hi all, I'm trying to get a script to run at start up on Ubuntu Edgy. I'm googling all over, but all I can find are articles talking about the advantages of Upstart over sysvinit, not any tutorials on how to actually use it. Could someone help me out?
[05:58] <speyer> is there anyway of getting gmplayer with smb url files support ? libsmbclient ? or something like that
[05:58] <jrib> !upstart | lasindi
[05:58] <ubotu> lasindi: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.  For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/
[05:58] <brandis> lasindi: tried adding an rc script?
[05:59] <riotkittie> Byan: i know there's a gdesklets section on gnome-look.org but i'm unsure as to what it contains
[05:59] <lasindi> brandis: yes, I've done that in the past, but I'd rather use Upstart as init is being deprecated from what I understand.
[05:59] <Byan> riotkittie: it seems empty
[05:59] <riotkittie> Byan: ah :\
[05:59] <brandis> lasindi: ok
[05:59] <jrib> lasindi: the "getting started" on their site seems to have some examples
[06:00] <GuerrillaWon> Can anyone point me in the right direction that can show me how to modify my boot up so I don't have to boot from the CD? I'm only running Ubuntu so no need for a duel boot.
[06:00] <bowman> heya... anyone know a good and simple web calendar system? (NOT egroupware)
[06:00] <brandis> GuerrillaWon: Grub?
[06:00] <riotkittie> uhhhh. is CD the default option in your BiOS?
[06:00] <GuerrillaWon> I believe so brandis.
[06:01] <GuerrillaWon> The default boot loader that comes with Ubuntu is loaded, so I assume Grub.
[06:01] <brandis> GuerrillaWon: but does grub prompt show on startup?
[06:01] <riotkittie> GRUB is giving you the option to boot from CD ?
[06:02] <brandis> GuerrillaWon: or do you get "no bootable device found" from bios?
[06:02] <skvn> I just changed from winxp to ubuntu, and thought i could keep my music which is on a different partition (fat32). But now when i look at Disks Manager and partitions, it says that the partition is inaccessible. Is there anyway to make it accessible?
[06:02] <jrib> !vfat | skvn
[06:02] <ubotu> skvn: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[06:02] <skvn> thanks :)
[06:02] <GuerrillaWon> No bootable device, unless my ubuntu cd is, then I'm prompted with options and have to choose boot from first hard disk.
[06:02] <Byan> is there a way to get the a wifi icon in the tray?
[06:02] <GuerrillaWon> *ubuntu cd is in
[06:02] <jrib> skvn: see the section on permissions specifically (look for umask or fmask/dmask)
[06:02] <gaha> hello :)
[06:03] <brandis> GuerrillaWon: sounds like grub has not added a Master Boot Record for you; try  grub-install (see manpage)
[06:03] <GuerrillaWon> Ok thank you.
[06:04] <gaha> Where are you from
[06:04] <gaha> ?
[06:05] <lasindi> jrib: yes, I think the documentation on there will work. Thanks; too bad Google doesn't turn up the most obvious site for this search. :-(
[06:07] <GuerrillaWon> hmm the man pages aren't very helpfull
[06:07] <Maximilian1st> GuerrillaWon, What are you looking for?
[06:08] <riotkittie> maybe i'm just misreading but i got the impression it was a BIOS boot order issue rather than a GRUB issue ... sounds like CD is your default/only boot option
[06:08] <drja1> hello there
[06:08] <riotkittie> then again, i am running on two hours of sleep :>
[06:08] <drja1> can someone help a newbie in ubuntu with something
[06:08] <Menasim1> my ubuntu turns to be very slow sometimes
[06:08] <GuerrillaWon> Maximilian1st I'm trying to install the grub boot loader directly to my mbr so I don't need to boot with the cd.
[06:09] <Enverex> Can anyone recommend a frontend for Flightgear?
[06:09] <GuerrillaWon> Without destroying my ubuntu installation :P
[06:09] <drja1> when trying to run a ./configure i get the foollowing error : checking for gcc... gcc
[06:09] <drja1> checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[06:09] <riotkittie> drja1: ask, and i'm sure that if someone knows, they'll reply
[06:09] <Maximilian1st> GuerrillaWon, you have files lying around on that installation?
[06:10] <GuerrillaWon> Yea, I'd like to not do a total reinstall, is there anyway to inject grub into the mbr without having to reinstall?
[06:10] <mgedmin> GuerrillaWon: what's currently in your mbr?  if that's the standard windows mbr, you can just make your linux partition active with fdisk, and it will boot
[06:10] <speyer> is vlc be able to play smb urls ?
[06:10] <czr> so that you might sleep better :-)
[06:10] <riotkittie> GuerrillaWon: installing grub wont hose your ubuntu install
[06:11] <drja1> checking for gcc... gcc
[06:11] <drja1> checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[06:11] <Maximilian1st> drja1, have you installed build-essential
[06:11] <drja1> am i missing a c compiler is that all

[06:12] <GuerrillaWon> I don't believe there's anything in my mbr. I did a total clean install of ubuntu. Now it just requires the cd to boot so I believe there is nothing in the mbr.

[06:12] <robbo> Hi,can you help pls with gaim?... I want make icq function,but there is some problem and i dont know what!!!
[06:13] <GuerrillaWon> How would I install grub to the mbr?
[06:13] <GuerrillaWon> Most the info I can find on grub is for duel boots etc. I apologise for bothering you with such a trivial question.
[06:13] <Enverex> GuerrillaWon, "setup (hd0)" assuming it's the first HD in the machine
[06:14] <robbo> Hi,can you help pls with gaim?... I want make icq function,but there is some problem and i dont know what!!!
[06:14] <Maximilian1st> did you enter the grub command line by just typing grub?
[06:14] <GuerrillaWon> Enverex how would I check? I'm sata, just not sure of the assigned name.
[06:14] <cinnander> Hello everyone. Can anyone tell me how I can find out which sound device has what /dev/... path?
[06:14] <Maximilian1st> GuerrillaWon, check with mount to see what's mounted or with cfdisk
[06:15] <robbo> Hi,can you help pls with gaim?... I want make icq function,but there is some problem and i dont know what!!!
[06:15] <Enverex> GuerrillaWon, Well how many HDs do you have in the machine?
[06:15] <riotkittie> hd0 sounds like a safe bet
[06:15] <riotkittie> :P
[06:16] <GuerrillaWon> 2 one sata won ide, I believe it might be on like sda
[06:16] <Administrador> hi folks
[06:16] <GuerrillaWon> oh ok I got it sda1
[06:17] <dame> !ati
[06:17] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:17] <riotkittie> dont worry about sda/hda. grub has a different naming convention. your first hd = hd0
[06:18] <GuerrillaWon> Ok it's on sda1, what would be the proper command line.
[06:18] <GuerrillaWon> oh ok
[06:19] <Maximilian1st> GuerrillaWon, whenever you are in the grub command line you can press the tab key and it will give you all the possible hdxxx on your machine...
[06:19] <riyonuk_> http://www.lynucs.org/index.php?screen_type=1&screen_id=71486999344a9852f03839&m=screen How do I make my taskbar at the bottom like that? Like the tasks arent seperated into sections
[06:19] <GuerrillaWon> oh ok so reboot and setup from the grub command line. I was wondering why it wasn't working in gnome
[06:19] <GuerrillaWon> *slaps forehead*
[06:20] <GuerrillaWon> I'm taking the dive, wish me luck! See ya on the other side hah!
[06:20] <bic> when i do livecd my internet works its configured as enthernet dhcp with the local host as <IP_ADDRESS>  when i use my installed version with the same settings my internet doesnt work
[06:20] <timo> how can i run this i just installed it ,cairo-clock_0.3.2-1_amd64
[06:20] <riotkittie> no no no
[06:20] <riotkittie> ooh too late
[06:20] <MetalKitten> hey
[06:20] <Maximilian1st> bic, hwat does ifconfig give you as information in both cases, try that and look for the differences.
[06:20] <hexdream> How do I take the ubuntu repository (as copied off the DVD repos) and package them as a single large repository?
[06:21] <bic> ifconfig = ipconfig?
[06:21] <Maximilian1st> riotkittie, you were wondering for Guerila...
[06:21] <riotkittie> ifconfig = ifconfig
[06:21] <bic> :p
[06:22] <riotkittie> Maximilian1st: mmmhm. but he'll be back soon enough, i imagine
[06:22] <Pici> ifconfig is to linux as ipconfig is to windows
[06:22] <Maximilian1st> He will, went away very fast
[06:22] <Daemonik> Nautilus has an argument --geometry. What's the proper string to use to get it at say 0 X 0 Y 1280x1024 for example?
[06:22] <speyer> any guide to compile mplayer ?
[06:23] <Maximilian1st> bic yes, ifconfig is the name. ipconfig is for windows.
