[09:51] <sorush20> hi guys where is azureus installed.. I have downloaded an update package and I'm in the azureus chat channel and they don't know where I should extract this update to.. any ideas?
[09:51] <[Ex0r] > im having a hard time watching .avi files
[09:51] <[Ex0r] > please help
[09:51] <aeQu`> stefg: _
[09:51] <pmorrison> Hello everyone
[09:52] <tristanmike> sorush20: what package ?
[09:52] <sebsebseb> Exor can you watch them at all?
[09:52] <bobbyw> nevermind.
[09:52] <fDErn> Anyone have the following chipset and battling with sound in dapper? snd_intel8x0
[09:52] <m3talc0re> would someone please tell me why i can't access my login window settings?
[09:52] <jrib> !avi > [Ex0r]
[09:52] <sebsebseb> !avi

[09:52] <aeQu`> stefg: well I found it now, but it seems that "persist" option already is on, but still the connection drops out sometimes
[09:52] <crimsun> fDErn: I have that chipset; it works brilliantly (for values of 'crappy on-board sound')
[09:52] <[Ex0r] > jrib- already installed all that stuff, still don't get any video or anything
[09:52] <tracker1> I thought azureus autoupdated itself.. it keeps seeding though
[09:52] <[Ex0r] > black screen
[09:53] <Devlyn> i need help with wireless internet in dapper. i can't connect to internet at all
[09:53] <fDErn> Crimsum: I am using alsa and cant hear anything through the speakers..
[09:53] <fDErn> Any advice?
[09:53] <crimsun> fDErn: paste the output from ``amixer'' onto http://pastebin.ca
[09:53] <sebsebseb> Devlyn:  you got a new PC with wireless already set up?  or you using an old PC that uses a wireless card?
[09:53] <MarcC> anybody know what it means when the gkrellm duck swims upside-down?
[09:53] <jrib> [Ex0r] : what player are you using?
[09:54] <Devlyn> this PC that obviously has wireless working
[09:54] <[Ex0r] > jrib- Movie Playe
[09:54] <Drakeson> what does db_get do ?
[09:54] <[Ex0r] > Movie Player**
[09:54] <dv_> hi
[09:54] <m3talc0re> oh come on, this is rediculous
[09:54] <sebsebseb> Devlyn:  with old PC's  wireless has to be set up with a wireless card.  with new computers they already have wireless hardware bult in
[09:54] <sebsebseb> which is yours?
[09:54] <m3talc0re> just fuckin' ignore like last night
[09:54] <jrib> [Ex0r] : right click on your avi file, click on properties, then the "audio/video" tab.  What codec does it use?
[09:54] <fDErn> ok
[09:55] <aeQu`> arghf
[09:55] <jrib> !patience > m3talc0re
[09:55] <dooglus> Devlyn: you can run ubuntu inside vmware in windows.  then your wireless will work.
[09:55] <pmorrison> If anyone can help: I just tried to do an update with the update manager in the system menu.  It said I have a broken package, or maybee dependency and that I need to run synaptic or apt-get install -f...  I prefer apt-get so I ran "sudo apt-get install -f" but I'm getting the error message "dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libgpod0_0.3.2-0ubuntu1_i386.deb (--unpack): trying to...
[09:55] <pmorrison> ...overwrite `/usr/lib/libgpod.so.0', which is also in package libgpod" Can anyone help me fix this? I'm somewhere between a noob and average user.
[09:55] <[Ex0r] > jrib- dunno, don't have any right now
[09:55] <m3talc0re> jrib, i asked and waited all last night and never got an answer
[09:55] <m3talc0re> i've run out of patience
[09:55] <jrib> m3talc0re: it's possible that no one knows the answer
[09:55] <sebsebseb> dooglus:  lol  hi there I know why you said that.  what you doing here?
[09:55] <fDErn> Crimsum: Done..
[09:55] <dooglus> I'm always here
[09:55] <sebsebseb> ok Chris
[09:56] <dv_> a question: when I watch a video in kaffeine, and save a file in an editor, the video hangs for a sec. looks as if while saving, the videoplayer is suspended. the same happens if I switch desktops, and the editor contents are redrawn. I suppose I can solve this by modifying kaffeines priority, but how do I do this?
[09:56] <jrib> m3talc0re: how are you trying to access your login window settings?
[09:56] <dv_> I am using the xine engine
[09:56] <bellerophon> hmmmm
[09:56] <m3talc0re> system>administration>login window
[09:56] <Devlyn> dooglus: how would i do that?
[09:56] <sebsebseb> Devlyn:  Does your wireless need a WEP key?
[09:56] <jrib> [Ex0r] : can you find a file that isn't working and then check the codec for me?
[09:56] <Devlyn> yes.. i set WEP key in network settings
[09:56] <m3talc0re> i forgot what to type in the terminal, but i did last night and it told me it couldn't access it or something
[09:56] <[Ex0r] > jrib- hmm, now it's working
[09:56] <jrib> m3talc0re: can you open synaptic?
[09:56] <aeQu`> stefg: could It be that something tries to reconnect dsl-provider once in a while? cause it's only firefox that drops out something, so I thinkg it might have 2 connections running, so that it's confused
[09:57] <jrib> [Ex0r] : ok, that's good... :)
[09:57] <dooglus> m3talc0re: what's the problem?
[09:57] <Jakubek> :>
[09:57] <Hatake> anyone point me to .deb for gimpshop?
[09:57] <sebsebseb> Devlyn:  you sure the WEP key is correct?
[09:57] <m3talc0re> yes, i can open synaptic
[09:57] <Devlyn> very
[09:57] <pmorrison> If anyone can help: I just tried to do an update with the update manager in the system menu.  It said I have a broken package, or maybee dependency and that I need to run synaptic or apt-get install -f...  I prefer apt-get so I ran "sudo apt-get install -f" but I'm getting the error message "dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libgpod0_0.3.2-0ubuntu1_i386.deb (--unpack): trying to...
[09:57] <pmorrison> ...overwrite `/usr/lib/libgpod.so.0', which is also in package libgpod" Can anyone help me fix this? I'm somewhere between a noob and average user.
[09:57] <sebsebseb> and you set your wireless up as hexadecimal or the other one?
[09:57] <Hatake> anyone point me to .deb for gimpshop?
[09:57] <Devlyn> hexa.. yes
[09:58] <sebsebseb> and your computer is how old?
[09:58] <gnomefreak> Hatake: there isnt one
[09:58] <fDErn> Crimsum: You have a look at the output?
[09:58] <jrib> m3talc0re: gksudo gdmsetup, is that the same?
[09:58] <Devlyn> 2 years?
[09:58] <stefg> aeQu`: i can't really tell, my dsl-connection never ever gave me any trouble in ubuntu, so i didn't have the opportunity to practice my troubleshooting skills
[09:58] <Hatake> lame
[09:58] <Devlyn> the wireless card works in windows..
[09:58] <gnomefreak> Hatake: check the gimpshop home page they have older version for debian iirc
[09:58] <dv_> hmm, ok, seems to be xine-specific.
[09:58] <erUSUL> !wifi > Devlyn
[09:58] <m3talc0re> lemme type that real quick
[09:59] <dv_> the issue does not occur with the mplayer engine
[09:59] <Devlyn> omfg. i've gone to the damn wifi page.
[09:59] <gnomefreak> Hatake: they might have updated it since i was there last
[09:59] <erUSUL> Devlyn: which card/chipset do you have?
[09:59] <Devlyn> stop posting it
[09:59] <rambo3> Devlyn, ending sentences with "works in windows" wont help you here that much
[09:59] <sebsebseb> Devlyn:  ok so your comp has that already built in wireless hardware then?
[09:59] <Devlyn> ...so its at least functional :)
[09:59] <Devlyn> ... and supported by the router
[09:59] <Hatake> they point to one at linux.suramya.com/tutorials/Install_GIMPShop/
[10:00] <Hatake> but my corp firewall won't let me to there
[10:00] <m3talc0re> jrib: here's what i get when i type that
[10:00] <fDErn> sound problems
[10:00] <Hatake> the google cache of it has a link at the bottom but i can't go to that either
[10:00] <dooglus> Hatake: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1226624&postcount=28
[10:00] <sebsebseb> Devlyn:  certain wirelesses are a nightmare to get working with Linux if they wil work at all
[10:00] <Devlyn> Texas Instruments 802.11g
[10:00] <m3talc0re> Failed to connect to socket, sleep 1 second and retry
[10:00] <m3talc0re> Trying failed command again.
[10:00] <m3talc0re> does that five times
[10:00] <rambo3> Devlyn, whats the chipset on you wifi
[10:00] <m3talc0re> then says "Could not access GDM configuration file.
[10:01] <m3talc0re> "
[10:01] <sebsebseb> dooglus:  maybe your getting it to use Windows wireless will help him
[10:01] <erUSUL> Devlyn: those work with native driver acx
[10:01] <sebsebseb> suggestion
[10:01] <sebsebseb> !wireless
[10:01] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:01] <jrib> m3talc0re: does /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf exist?
[10:01] <erUSUL> Devlyn: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/acx111
[10:02] <dooglus> sebsebseb: sorry, I was only joking about the ubuntu-in-vmware-in-windows 'solution'.  what he should really do of course is buy a wired ethernet card :)
[10:02] <m3talc0re> lemme look
[10:02] <help-the-n00b> Hello.
[10:02] <Devlyn> yeah. its actually an airlink 54
[10:02] <sebsebseb> dooglus:  lol  I know why your saying that since your on my MSN,  Google,  and ICQ and what happended last time when I tryed to help with Wireless here
[10:02] <fDErn> anyone have issues with sound with dapper on a notebook?
[10:03] <pmorrison> I guess everyone's busy trying to fix an aircard that's not going to work... I'll try posting my problem on the forums.
[10:03] <m3talc0re> jrib: yeah, it exists
[10:03] <jrib> m3talc0re: what are the permissions?
[10:03] <Devlyn> i have a wired ethernet card.
[10:03] <Devlyn> its not built in.
[10:03] <SilentJ> Hello, Can someone Please help me? I am having a LOAD of problems with Ubuntu :)
[10:03] <sebsebseb> your comp is a PC or lap top?
[10:03] <Devlyn> pc
[10:03] <m3talc0re> -rw-r-r--
[10:04] <rambo3> SilentJ, just ask here
[10:04] <cr3> where can I specify X options when starting gdm?
[10:04] <sebsebseb> well then might as well get it hard wired
[10:04] <m3talc0re> says i'm not the owner so i can't change the permissions
[10:04] <cypher1> !ask > SilentJ
[10:04] <fDErn> laptop..
[10:04] <jrib> m3talc0re: that's fine, that's what it is here
[10:04] <Devlyn> hard wired?
[10:04] <anonymeee1> i just installed ubuntu
[10:04] <anonymeee1> pretty nice
[10:04] <sebsebseb> Devlyn:  or you could have Linux in Windows and it will use Windows to connect,  but your probably better off just getting it hard wired
[10:05] <anonymeee1> is there a way to make it boot up in kde instead though?
[10:05] <sebsebseb> Devlyn:  yes so you have a cable that goes to your Internet connection
[10:05] <jrib> m3talc0re: how about... /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
[10:05] <rexykik> is there any way to install dapper in a terminal environment like Breezy, without having to boot up kde?
[10:05] <jrib> !kde > anonymeee1
[10:05] <SilentJ> I had just downloaded the 6.06 server cd and I install it and it installs fine, but the problem is there is nothing but command line. No Gnome No nothing. I spent about 8 hours yesterday trying to get it to work
[10:05] <rambo3> anonymeee1, you need kde-desktop
[10:05] <sebsebseb> anonymeee1:  yes you can install Kubuntu
[10:05] <dooglus> jrib: sounds like gdm isn't running.  get him to look for the process
[10:05] <hypnox> rexykik find out about apt-get
[10:05] <anonymeee1> where do I enter that command?
[10:05] <gnomefreak> anonymeee1: install kubuntu-desktop
[10:05] <jrib> dooglus: ah
[10:05] <jrib> thank you
[10:05] <Devlyn> how do i run linux in windows?
[10:05] <m3talc0re> yeah, it's there too
[10:05] <rexykik> ah, okay. I wasn't sure if there was an easier route.
[10:05] <dooglus> jrib: I got that error message earlier today when I tried running gdmflexiserver when gdm wasn't running
[10:05] <erUSUL> SilentJ: servers do not need an x server. install ubuntu-desktop
[10:06] <Devlyn> using the same box at least.
[10:06] <m3talc0re> same permissions
[10:06] <rambo3> anonymeee1, open ubuntu wiki and search synaptic
[10:06] <m3talc0re> -rw-r-r--
[10:06] <SilentJ> I downloaded the Desktop CD as well
[10:06] <jrib> m3talc0re: k, as dooglus suggested: ps -ef | grep gdm
[10:06] <fDErn> Devlyn: use pear pc or vmware
[10:06] <fDErn> ;)
[10:06] <SilentJ> and it dosent do anything
[10:06] <sebsebseb> rexykik:  you want to be able to run Gnome and KDE at same time?
[10:06] <dooglus> jrib: maybe he's using kdm?
[10:06] <anonymeee1> gnomefreak: how do I do that?
[10:06] <m3talc0re> i type that in terminal?
[10:06] <rexykik> neg, seb
[10:06] <SilentJ> the Desktop is the :live cd right?
[10:06] <gnomefreak> anonymeee1: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[10:06] <gnomefreak> SilentJ: yes
[10:06] <jrib> m3talc0re: yeah, see what it ouputs
[10:06] <rexykik> sebsebseb, i want to install ubuntu without having to open kde from the boot cd.
[10:06] <jrib> dooglus: I'll check for that next
[10:07] <SilentJ> ok I dont want a Live CD I want to install it to my HD
[10:07] <anonymeee1> ok I'll try that, thank you!
[10:07] <rexykik> such as how you would download just the install cd for breezy, but dapper doesn't have something like that
[10:07] <SilentJ> I dont have that option with the Desktop CD it just dies
[10:07] <SilentJ> dosent do anything
[10:07] <sebsebseb> Devlyn:  download and install  VMware server in Windows.  http://www.vmware.com/products/sever
[10:07] <gnomefreak> alternative cd SilentJ but live also installs now
[10:07] <m3talc0re> 1000     31860 31834  0 15:07 pts/0    00:00:00 grep gdm
[10:07] <sebsebseb> Devlyn:  then set up a Ubuntu in a virtual machine or whatever Linux you want to run
[10:07] <MarcC> anyone know why nvidia breaks every time I try booting into a new kernel?
[10:07] <fDErn> Devlyn: PearPc is free
[10:07] <jrib> m3talc0re: ok, did you ever install kubuntu? or maybe xubuntu?
[10:07] <rexykik> SilentJ, if you can't see the install executable on your desktop look through the menus
[10:07] <m3talc0re> lol, both
[10:07] <SilentJ> gnomefreak the ulternate CD is the Server CD right?! That is why I spent 8 hours downloading it yesterday
[10:07] <jackn> jrib All's well that ends well
[10:08] <sebsebseb> Devlyn:  VMware server is better than PearPC
[10:08] <jrib> m3talc0re: and did you choose to use kdm possibly?
[10:08] <jackn> jrib am very grateful
[10:08] <jrib> jackn: great, np
[10:08] <fDErn> Vmware you have to pay for and its very heavy..
[10:08] <m3talc0re> well
[10:08] <jackn> nie
[10:08] <SilentJ> so there is no gnome on the Server CD?
[10:08] <gnomefreak> no SilentJ server cd is server cd desktop cd is the live and alternative is the normal one you are used to from past ubuntu/debian distros
[10:08] <jackn> jrib goodnite i mean
[10:08] <m3talc0re> when i start up, for some reason, i can't get the login screen to be ubuntu's anymore
[10:08] <SilentJ> Thats friggin stupid
[10:08] <fDErn> albeit a great piece of software..
[10:08] <jrib> jackn: night
[10:08] <m3talc0re> it stays as Kubuntu's
[10:08] <sebsebseb> fDErn:  no VMware has two free versions.  VMware player and VMware server
[10:08] <gnomefreak> SilentJ: no gui at all on server but it can always be installed after
[10:08] <m3talc0re> but i just choose GNOME int he sessions
[10:08] <dooglus> rexykik: to install dapper without booting X, use the 'alternate' CD instead of the 'desktop' CD
[10:09] <jrib> m3talc0re: do you want to use gdm instead?
[10:09] <rexykik> ah, thanks dooglus
[10:09] <m3talc0re> yeah
[10:09] <m3talc0re> i want the login screen to be ubuntu's
[10:09] <SilentJ> ok, I have a 5.10 disk but I have a hell of a time installing it
[10:09] <m3talc0re> gdm
[10:09] <jrib> m3talc0re: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[10:09] <keldon> SilentJ: what do you want with a GUI on a server?
[10:09] <SilentJ> sometimes it crashes at "installing Bace system" about 74% threw
[10:09] <sebsebseb> SlientJ:  5.10  is Breezy so screw that and get yourself a Dapper disk :)
[10:09] <dooglus> rexykik: 'alternate' is what used to be the regular install disk, and 'desktop' is what used to be called 'live'.  'live' got the facility to do an install in dapper, you see...
[10:09] <SilentJ> I have a dapper disk it dosent work
[10:10] <Devlyn> la la la
[10:10] <SilentJ> It crashes from the start
[10:10] <sebsebseb> what PC you  trying to run on?  I Mean when it comes to hardware and how old it is
[10:10] <SilentJ> i click "run or install
[10:10] <SilentJ> and it locks up
[10:10] <m3talc0re> i guess i gotta logout huh?
[10:10] <Devlyn> what exactly does VMware do?
[10:10] <SilentJ> I am on a Dell laptop
[10:10] <SilentJ> 9300 its a new machine
[10:10] <sebsebseb> Devlyn:  it's lets you run more than one operating system at the same time
[10:11] <Devlyn> amazing.
[10:11] <fDErn> It allows you to build and run a os within your windows environment
[10:11] <lmh> hi all
[10:11] <rexykik> so thats what happened. I thought the alternative was just a way to do mass system installs
[10:11] <jrib> m3talc0re: easiest way is to reboot, you may be able to kill kdm and start gdm, but I'm not sure how well that will workout
[10:11] <rexykik> thank you for the distinction
[10:11] <biberao> hello
[10:11] <biberao> any of you
[10:11] <fDErn> Its a VIRUTAL environment however, it has all the capabilities of a full blown os..
[10:11] <biberao> got a wl-530g?
[10:11] <m3talc0re> would rather try not to reboot
[10:11] <lmh> i have a big problem: grub-install does not tell me anything, freezes
[10:11] <SilentJ> So, does anyone have any idea why my CD wont boot?
[10:11] <Devlyn> so does VMware run inside XP? or does XP run inside VMware?
[10:11] <lmh> i tried to switch from lilo to grub
[10:11] <m3talc0re> it takes too long, the emachine boot screen stays up forever :/
[10:11] <SilentJ> I get this really nice flash screen
[10:11] <cypher1> rexykik,  i guess alternate is also used for upgradation also
[10:12] <fDErn> Runs within XP.
[10:12] <m3talc0re> i hate this computer
[10:12] <sebsebseb> Devlyn:  VMware will run in  Windows or Linux
[10:12] <fDErn> Its a piece of software..
[10:12] <SilentJ> then i click "install or load" and thats it
[10:12] <lmh> apt-get --purge remove lilo && apt-get install grub
[10:12] <Devlyn> so if i were planning on doing a clean install of XP, i should do it before installing VMware?
[10:12] <sebsebseb> well yeah
[10:12] <sebsebseb> if your going to have
[10:12] <jrib> m3talc0re: does /etc/init.d/kdm exist?
[10:12] <fDErn> Ofcourse..
[10:12] <sebsebseb> VMware in XP
[10:12] <lmh> anybody an idea?
[10:12] <fDErn> Install XP
[10:12] <Devlyn> oki
[10:12] <fDErn> Install<PHONE_NUMBER>0000000 pacthes
[10:12] <rambo3> lmh is /boot/grub/device.map ok
[10:13] <fDErn> install vmware..
[10:13] <lmh> looks really bad, can i restart the system savely?
[10:13] <SilentJ> please
[10:13] <rambo3> lmh no
[10:13] <fDErn> start vmware
[10:13] <sebsebseb> SilentJ:  have you tryed to run the Dapper Live CD or any other Linux Live CD
[10:13] <m3talc0re> yes it exists
[10:13] <fDErn> following the wizard to build a os..
[10:13] <fDErn> its really really simple.
[10:13] <SilentJ> yea
[10:13] <sebsebseb> and that works?
[10:13] <SilentJ> Dapper live dosent do anything like I said
[10:13] <SilentJ> it wont install
[10:13] <SilentJ> it wont boot
[10:13] <SilentJ> it just locks up
[10:14] <sebsebseb> the Live CD won't work either?
[10:14] <dooglus> m3talc0re: run this command - what does it say?    echo /etc/rc2.d/????dm
[10:14] <biberao> Devlyn both
[10:14] <Devlyn> or i can install VMware in ubuntu and run xp in that?
[10:14] <cypher1> SilentJ, did u burnt the cd ?
[10:14] <SilentJ> nope
[10:14] <fDErn> YES..
[10:14] <biberao> got a wl-530g?!!!
[10:14] <biberao> pls
[10:14] <lmh> rambo3: i don't know, there is no /boot/grub
[10:14] <fDErn> THats the better way to do it ;)
[10:14] <sebsebseb> yes Devlyn
[10:14] <SilentJ> yea I burned the CD
[10:14] <Devlyn> which way is better?
[10:14] <fDErn> Stable host os and winblows running within..
[10:14] <jrib> m3talc0re: ok you are going to run 'sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop', that should kill off kdm as well as X I believe.  So you may then have to press ctrl-alt-f1 and login to the terminal there.  Then run 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start' and press alt-f7 to get back to X.  Umm, check that /etc/init.d/gdm exists before starting this process...
[10:14] <sebsebseb> fDErm:  well sure we would say,  but his Intenret won't work in Linux
[10:14] <Devlyn> my internet won't work in linux :)
[10:14] <rambo3> lmh run sudo apt-get install grub again
[10:14] <cypher1> SilentJ, i guess in dapper there is a option in the begining to check the sanity of the contents of cd
[10:15] <rambo3> SilentJ, install breezy
[10:15] <cypher1> SilentJ, can you try it ?
[10:15] <SilentJ> yea
[10:15] <Devlyn> and i can't run wire to hub.
[10:15] <lmh> rambo3: I just installed grub, now i have a /boot/grub
[10:15] <bl3ssing> ubuntu-6.06-desktop-i386.iso ... can anybody tell me how could I install this new kubuntu on my computer, without writting any cd ...
[10:15] <fDErn> Why, whats the problem? I must have missed the earliar posts..
[10:15] <sebsebseb> cypher1:  you mean if it's currupted or not?
[10:15] <m3talc0re> sudo killall kdm wont work?
[10:15] <SilentJ> Breesy installed nicely twice
[10:15] <dooglus> bl3ssing: you can't
[10:15] <lmh> rambo3: but lilo is still in the MBR
[10:15] <biberao> bye
[10:15] <SilentJ> but I always have the same problem
[10:15] <bl3ssing> dooglus,  grrrrrrrrrrr....
[10:15] <bl3ssing> :)
[10:15] <cypher1> sebsebseb, not sure since it was burnt
[10:15] <rambo3> lmh, run install then grub-install /dev/hda or sda
[10:15] <SilentJ> It crashes at "installing Bace System"
[10:16] <SilentJ> about 74% threw
[10:16] <Devlyn> so for internet to work i'd have to install it in windows? or could i install it in linux and use internet in windows? i'm confused :(
[10:16] <sebsebseb> slientJ:  your CD drive might be scrwed or the disc is
[10:16] <keldon> reburn the cd at lower speed then SilentJ
[10:16] <sireliah> what is the command to check to see if 3d xcelleration is on?
[10:16] <SilentJ> burned it at 1
[10:16] <m3talc0re> yeah, no?
[10:16] <dooglus> bl3ssing: well, maybe you can - some kind of magic "boot from iso file" program in windows or something?  I don't know.  but it would have been easier if you had the alternate cd, not the desktop one
[10:16] <jrib> m3talc0re: might, you still need to start gdm afterwards though
[10:16] <SilentJ> took an hour
[10:16] <lmh> rambo3: whenever i run grub-install hd0 or grub-install /dev/hda it freezes everything
[10:16] <SilentJ> dosent get any slower
[10:16] <m3talc0re> yeah
[10:16] <m3talc0re> sudo gdm
[10:16] <dooglus> m3talc0re: run this command - what does it say?    echo /etc/rc2.d/????dm
[10:16] <keldon> SilentJ, verified written date afterwars?
[10:16] <rambo3> lmh, try with --no-floppy
[10:16] <keldon> +d
[10:16] <sebsebseb> silentj:  you can also get them to send you Dapper CD's for free from http://shipit.ubuntu.com  it might be a few weeks,  but at least then the disc will be perfect
[10:17] <m3talc0re> dooglus: /etc/rc2.d/S13gdm /etc/rc2.d/S99kdm
[10:17] <dooglus> m3talc0re: if you stop or kill kdm, all your windows will vanish
[10:17] <m3talc0re> i know
[10:17] <dooglus> m3talc0re: those 'S's stand for 'start' - it's starting both gdm and kdm
[10:17] <cypher1> SilentJ, can you switch terminals while installing and see whether there are any errors/logs reported
[10:17] <m3talc0re> so what do i do to make it only start gdm?
[10:18] <dooglus> m3talc0re: do a "sudo mv /etc/rc2.d/{S,K}99kdm" to disable kdm
[10:18] <Devlyn> vmware almost done downloading..
[10:18] <sebsebseb> your in WIndows now Devlyn?
[10:18] <Devlyn> yes
[10:18] <m3talc0re> hmm
[10:18] <stefg> SilentJ: so do a media check, do a memtest... Inspiron 9300 is known to fully work with ubuntu, so this is a hardware issue
[10:18] <m3talc0re> didn't do anything
[10:18] <lmh> rambo3: hdb: dma_intr status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
[10:18] <sebsebseb> VMware server right?
[10:18] <masquerade> Is there a way to blacklist a problematic package when doing an apt-get upgrade or using Ubuntu's software upgrades? login 1:4.0.13-7ubuntu3.2 is causing dpkg to segfault, and I can't get anything to upgrade until I can do something about that. Even when I deselect the checkbox in the Software Updates program, it insists on trying to install it
[10:18] <dooglus> sebsebseb: I can't believe you talked him into the vmware route!
[10:18] <fDErn> Devlyn: Now all you need is a copy of dapper (iso) and you are done..
[10:18] <lmh> rambo3: DriveStatusError BadCRC
[10:18] <tailsfan> Does Dapper Drake come with Java already?
[10:18] <m3talc0re> or do i have to ctrl+alt+f1 then put that command?
[10:19] <Devlyn> if i install vmware in ubuntu could i use internet of windows in vmware?
[10:19] <SilentJ> naw
[10:19] <sebsebseb> !java
[10:19] <ubotu> java is an object oriented programming language. To install a java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java For the runtime Sun Java install sun-java5-jre from the Multiverse repository
[10:19] <SilentJ> Breesy installed ok
[10:19] <lmh> rambo3: ide: failed opcode was: unknown
[10:19] <dooglus> m3talc0re: no, any terminal will do.  that will just affect the next time(s) you boot
[10:19] <Devlyn> vmware workstation 5.51
[10:19] <sebsebseb> oh
[10:19] <sebsebseb> uhmmmm
[10:19] <rambo3> lmh its ok ,sudo gedit /boot/grub/device.map and remove hdb
[10:19] <m3talc0re> so i have to restart...
[10:19] <sebsebseb> you don't want that one Devlyn
[10:19] <sebsebseb> unless
[10:19] <m3talc0re> ?
[10:20] <sebsebseb> your going to pay for it or take the other route :D
[10:20] <cypher1> SilentJ, yes.. its best to check the media as per my understanding it seems to stop at exactly the same place during installation
[10:20] <rambo3> lmh wait , hdb is ?
[10:20] <rambo3> what you have on it
[10:20] <Devlyn> other route taken
[10:20] <aeQu> !xfce
[10:20] <dooglus> m3talc0re: you can go to ctrl-alt-f1 and "sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop" then "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start" to stop kdm and start gdm.  but the 'mv' command I told you will fix it for future boots
[10:20] <ubotu> Xubuntu is Ubuntu with XFCE, for more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org. To install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[10:20] <aeQu> ty mate!

[10:22] <andriijas> how can i check the cpu temperature without rebooting and go into bios?
[10:22] <sebsebseb> Devlyn:  I think you will get in a mess trying to pirate worksation
[10:22] <Devlyn> yes. so finding the free one took longer than changing a search engine in firefox and typing in vmware :)
[10:23] <SilentJ> I dont want to install Debian!!!1
[10:23] <SilentJ> I want toi install Stupid Ubuntu
[10:23] <Devlyn> its almost done..

[10:24] <fDErn> rambo3: Do you have sound at all?
[10:24] <dooglus> painkiler: just replace 'dapper' with 'edgy' in the dapper sources.list
[10:24] <SilentJ> Look, the damn thing will only boot with stupid command line
[10:24] <sebsebseb> Devlyn:  this is what you want http://www.vmware.com/products/server

[10:24] <lmh> rambo3: how long does it take?
[10:24] <rambo3> 10 seconds
[10:24] <lmh> rambo3: it already takes longer
[10:24] <dooglus> SilentJ: you're not making much sense.  you installed debian accidentally?  or what?
[10:24] <m3talc0re> works now, t/y t/y
[10:24] <lmh> rambo3: without notice
[10:24] <dooglus> m3talc0re: y/w y/w

[10:25] <sebsebseb> Devlyn:  ,because your meant to pay for it.  and you will probably end up in a mess if you try and pirate it.  and VMware server will do what you want
[10:25] <fDErn> rambo3: Do you have sound at all?

[10:27] <SilentJ> dooglus I have been trying to install Ubuntu for 3 days now, I downloaded the Desktop cd 6.06and it does nothing. It locks up the first 2 minutes of install... so I thought I needed the Server CD, which again I downloaded and of course it didnt do anyting but give me command line so I thought screw it and I will install debian and try that out and again I got nothing but command line, so I have a Ubuntu 5.10 Cd that (SOMETIMES) installs to my computer, an
[10:27] <lmh> rambo3: any idea?
[10:27] <sebsebseb> linuxboy:  and installed the stuff from there?
[10:28] <linuxboy> sebsebseb: yes
[10:28] <rexykik> bad cdrom drive?
[10:28] <sebsebseb> SilentJ:  so you have had 5.10 installed before?
[10:28] <rsk> bad hardware probably
[10:28] <SilentJ> no cd rom is fine
[10:28] <SilentJ> yea

[10:29] <Devlyn> sebseb: if i get the one for linux. and my internet doesn't work in linux. and i run windows in vmware. will my internet work?
[10:29] <sebsebseb> yes
[10:29] <linuxboy> sebsebseb: must I use totem-xine or totem-gstreamer ?
[10:29] <sebsebseb> I belive so
[10:30] <sebsebseb> since WIndows will be your host OS
[10:30] <sebsebseb> and Linux will be the guest
[10:30] <sebsebseb> and so it should use Windows to connect to Internet
[10:30] <Devlyn> ugh. what if i want linux to be host damnit.
[10:30] <Devlyn> lol
[10:30] <sebsebseb> I think Ubuntu will,  but I am pretty sure uhmmmm damn small Linux will for example.  and you can easilly get that from there site
[10:30] <sebsebseb> if you hard wire it
[10:30] <vgoltser> ok, here's a problem ... ubuntu 6.06 does not automount blank CDR disks ... it reports no media found
[10:31] <sebsebseb> it should work on Linux without any problems
[10:31] <Devlyn> ok well. i can't run a cord to my hub.
[10:31] <Devlyn> wireless is a must.
[10:31] <sebsebseb> hummmmmmm suggestion
[10:31] <sebsebseb> for you uhmmmmmm
[10:31] <sebsebseb> Ndiswrapper
[10:31] <sebsebseb> maybe that will sort you out
[10:31] <vgoltser> ndsiwrapper is a workaround, not a solution

[10:51] <Ish_nitti> rexykik: as you can tell, it does not support cdrom drives.
[10:51] <rexykik> yeah
[10:51] <rexykik> it doesn't work that way though
[10:51] <rexykik> you have to install to the MBR to boot from it
[10:52] <Ish_nitti> yeah
[10:52] <kozlojak> is there a way to see all the ! command's that the bot can do ?

[11:08] <Renan_s2> lhds, what is the size of your current hard drive? can't you use, like, 6GB for Linux?
[11:08] <lhds> so your idea is to buy a hdd and go with cfdisk ?

[11:09] <lhds> renan i dont have partition magic and i dont want to screw the data on my hdd is there a way?

 that moves data or that erases all hdd data and starts from scratch?
[11:10] <rexykik> Ish_nitti, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-81280.html
[11:10] <Renan_s2> lhds, moves data, but make backups if possible
[11:10] <Renan_s2> it is not 100% perfect
[11:10] <Aagni> hmm ..
[11:10] <lhds> 40 geg backup = how many cd's? heh

[11:11] <gatekeeper> Aagni: yw :-)
[11:11] <Daver23x> damn i can transfer like 4 songs anymore and i think linux tries to transfer to fast for the mp3 player and the usb port?!?
[11:11] <Aagni> gatekeeper: you a wifi guru?
[11:11] <Daver23x> err to my mp3 player
[11:11] <rexykik> Daver23x, that wasn't a question
[11:12] <gatekeeper> Aagni: not really what's the problem?
[11:12] <Minty> can anyone tell me how to mount my window partion please, the device is dev/hda1 and the access path is /mnt/win
[11:12] <goonies> ive configured my kernel and when i try my custom kernel it boots until some part that says, waiting for root file system
[11:12] <stefg> !mount
[11:12] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted  -  Formatting partitions: see the manual page for mkfs ("man mkfs")  -  Mounting partitions in Gnome: System -> Administration -> Disks
[11:12] <gatekeeper> !ntfs > Minty
[11:12] <goonies> but in grubs menu.lst the kernels line is exactly set up like the others
[11:12] <goonies> anyone have any idea whats up?
[11:12] <Aagni> gatekeeper: i am RTFM-ing, but my wifi connection drops if not used for a little while
[11:13] <Daver23x> lol ok if i try to transfer many large files to usb my mp3 player will get the first few songs then just the file names even though it claims to have transfered all the data.. perhaps linux is pushing the data to fast.. any fix for this?
[11:13] <rexykik> Aagni, check the DHCP lease time on your router
[11:13] <Aagni> rexykik: how do  i do that?
[11:13] <rexykik> Daver23x, it is extreamly unlikely that linux is pushing data too fast
[11:13] <BigMonkey> ivanowitch - Have you got any more time for help?
[11:13] <rexykik> Aagni, you should be able to log into your router somehow
[11:13] <rexykik> either through software or through a web interface
[11:14] <Minty> gatekeeper: have already a folder shortcut to this partion on my desktop, but would like to 'see' the partion in the computer next to my filestyem icon
[11:14] <Daver23x> then maybe the transfer cache is to small
[11:14] <Renan_s2> I would make a quick hack which keeps pinging www.google.com and put it in crontab... I once did this for a dial-up connection
[11:14] <Nekow42> Aagni: Usually through a web interface...
[11:14] <dnkidjit> Aagni: btw, command i was thinking of turned out to be update-alternatives
[11:14] <dli> Daver23x, make sure you umount the usb disk ( Right click, Umount/Eject), before you unplug
[11:14] <Daver23x> would that make a difference?
[11:14] <gatekeeper> Aagni: <IP_ADDRESS> at a guess to log into your router
[11:15] <Renan_s2> Daver23x, yes
[11:15] <Aagni> rexykik: its 1 day
[11:15] <Aagni> gatekeeper: yes, i got through
[11:15] <bbrazil> Aagni: router model?
[11:15] <gatekeeper> Aagni: :-)
[11:15] <dli> Daver23x, or use reiser4 filesystem, you won't get empty files :) files are there or not, but no broken ones
[11:15] <rexykik> Daver23x, are you making sure to unmount the drive before and
[11:15] <Daver23x> lol this morning i noticed that linux had created a .trashbin on the mp3 player.. I thought that was funny
[11:15] <mboso> anyone recgonize the wallpaper in the screenshot? i've seen it a few places, but have no idea what it is. http://www.flickr.com/photos/kaichan/174657976/#comment72157594181577254
[11:15] <Renan_s2> dli, I think the MP3 player doesn't understand Reiser4
[11:15] <phazeman> Hi All
[11:16] <bbrazil> .0.1 - voyager or sitecom?
[11:16] <dli> Renan_s2, who cares
[11:16] <phazeman> a simple question - is there an option on the live cd to save the current user preferences ?
[11:16] <Eml-> mboso i have it
[11:16] <dli> phazeman, kinda of silly, but you can cp ~/.gconf* ~/.gnome*
[11:16] <Aagni> bbrazil: dell 2350
[11:17] <gatekeeper> phazeman: will your pc let you boot from a usb stick?
[11:17] <phazeman> dli: thanks
[11:17] <mboso> Eml-: for real? would you mind sending it to me? Its fing nice
[11:18] <phazeman> gatekeeper: i don't know.. how do i check ?
[11:18] <Ish_nitti> is there an ubuntu floppy boot disk?
[11:18] <stian> phaero: check in bios for boot from "other hardware" or a thing like that
[11:18] <dli> Ish_nitti, can you boot via net/usb?
[11:18] <gatekeeper> phazeman: would be a boot option in the bios I think, if it can head over to damn small linux and have a look
[11:19] <Ish_nitti> dli: most likely not, this box is pre cdrom era
[11:19] <dli> Phazeman, if your bios doesn't allow usb booting, you can still boot usb via grub on hdd
[11:19] <Phazeman> gatekeeper: i still dont understand how that will help me ?
[11:19] <Ish_nitti> dli: hence why my client is unable to install from cdrom
[11:19] <dooglus> dli: best not to use '*' twice with 'cp' like that
[11:19] <dli> Ish_nitti, take the hdd (ide?), install on another machine
[11:20] <Minty> why does this not work ~$ sudo /etc/fstab
[11:20] <Minty> sudo: /etc/fstab: command not found
[11:20] <Daver23x> how about that i unmounted it and mounted it transsfered and unmounted it and it worked
[11:20] <Ish_nitti> dli: that was my last resort
[11:20] <gatekeeper> Phazeman: there are ways to run linux from a usb stick, and will allow  you save your settings
[11:20] <dli> dooglus, why not?
[11:20] <Renan_s2> Minty, do you want to edit /etc/fstab?
[11:20] <trappist> Minty: /etc/fstab isn't a program.  it's a text file.  try sudo nano /etc/fstab
[11:20] <Renan_s2> then use "sudo gedit /etc/fstab" if you use gnome, or "sudo kedit /etc/fstab" if you use kde
[11:20] <Phazeman> gatekeeper: gotcha... thanks.. anyway i don't have such big usb stick.. only 512MB and it's almost full now
[11:20] <dooglus> dli: because the 2nd one will expand to multiple paths, and only the last of them will be treated as the destination, the rest will be the source.
[11:20] <dli> Ish_nitti, debian provides loadlin.exe to start from dos
[11:20] <Minty> I would like to look at it
[11:20] <Phazeman> woohoo trappist  !
[11:20] <dooglus> dli: for me it expands like this: cp /home/chris/.gconf /home/chris/.gconfd /home/chris/.gnome /home/chris/.gnome2 /home/chris/.gnome2_private /home/chris/.gnome_private /home/chris/.gnomerc
[11:20] <mirak> hi
[11:20] <trappist> Phazeman!
[11:21] <mirak> Is there at least on wifi card with open source driver or none at all ?
[11:21] <Phazeman> trappist: damn long time not seen !!!!!
[11:21] <Phazeman> trappist: look at my host mask :)))))
[11:21] <bbrazil> Phazeman: someone mentioned to be recently a floppy that can boot to cd, network etc. Forget the name
[11:21] <dooglus> dli: that's almost certainly not what you intended
[11:21] <Minty> trappist: Okay did that and got /dev/hda1 /mnt/win ntfs nls=utf8,umask=0222 0 0
[11:21] <Minty> I would like to to see it all the timemount tis partion
[11:21] <cotroler> after sudo apt-get install mozilla-firefox  do i need to configure something to open firefox???
[11:21] <claes> Hi! Audacity crashes showing "PaHost_WatchDogProc: killing hung audio thread!" as only error output. Any ideas?
[11:21] <Minty> I would like to to see it all the time
[11:22] <Aagni> cotroler: nope, it should appear in your menu
[11:22] <tuliomgui> Renan_s2: hey man do you use k3b?
[11:22] <dli> dooglus, I said cp the folders, not my fault, if a brainless types: cp ~/.gconf* ~/.gnome* , even that brainless won't do any demage indeed
[11:22] <stian> cotroler: no, just open it
[11:22] <Renan_s2> tuliomgui, I have used it once or twice. why?
[11:22] <cotroler> i cant find it! :O
[11:22] <gatekeeper> cotroler: nope should be ok, might want to visit preferences once you have fired it up
[11:22] <stian> cotroler: alt+f2 and write firefox :P
[11:22] <goonies> this kernel crap might get me back on gentoo
[11:23] <dooglus> dli: I'm saying you don't want that 2nd * - it makes the command do different stuff depending on which locale you're in
[11:23] <goonies> ive had nothing but problems configuring a kernel for ubuntu, one after another, on gentoo i never have probs
[11:23] <goonies> "Begin: Waiting for root file system ..."
[11:23] <dooglus> dli: it will copy stuff into whichever .gnome* folder comes last in the local sorting order
[11:23] <dli> goonies, you can build your own kernel in ubuntu, but using kernel-package, not " make bzImage"
[11:23] <tuxvix> hello everyone
[11:23] <chikosanchez> Hello all!! someone could help me to install MSN pebrot ?
[11:23] <goonies> dli, i have followed the ubuntus wiki religously
[11:23] <tuxvix> is any one in here knows any php/cgi?
[11:23] <Renan_s2> Anybody here knows what can be causing SSH server (sshd) to work when I 'ssh localhost', but doesn't work when I try to SSH from a remote machine? I have opened the port 22 on my router.
[11:24] <tuliomgui> Renan_s2: im trying to create a audio project and add mp3 files to the project but it says mp3 format is not compatible. what should i do?
[11:24] <Renan_s2> tuliomgui, you need to install codecs
[11:24] <crimsun> goonies: did you generate the initramfs for your custom kernel if you didn't compile in support for your root fs and the drive's controller type?
[11:24] <gatekeeper> goonies: there is a #ubuntu-kernel channel
[11:24] <Renan_s2> !codecs
[11:24] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[11:24] <tuliomgui> Renan_s2: wich ones do you know?
[11:24] <goonies> gatekeeper, ill go there
[11:24] <goonies> crimsun, yes i did
[11:24] <Renan_s2> tuliomgui, look at those links
[11:24] <tuxvix> and where can one find Ubuntu 6.10 changelog?
[11:24] <wildman> hello, is there a repository where I can get updated versions of some packages? (for example krita) dapper x86_64 here
[11:24] <Renan_s2> !codecs > tuliomgui
[11:24] <crimsun> goonies: please keep the support question in here
[11:24] <tuliomgui> Renan_s2: thanks man!
[11:24] <tuliomgui> =D
[11:24] <goonies> its not like im a noob at configuring my own kernel
[11:24] <Sarra> !codecs
[11:24] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[11:24] <goonies> ive done it 100s of times on different distributions
[11:25] <crimsun> goonies: what was the syntax you used to generate it?
[11:25] <dli> dooglus, no, because ~/.gconf* ~/.gnome* are all folders, therefore, " cp ~/.gconf* ~/.gnome* " won't do anything, simply returns
[11:25] <goonies> one second, let me get u the link to the guide ive followed
[11:25] <goonies> crimsun, http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Kernel_Compilation_Dapper
[11:25] <dooglus> dli: ~/.gnome-fetish.avi is a regular file on my other box.  um.
[11:26] <cerberus> does anyone know how to remove the annoying drum sound when the logon screen pops up?
[11:26] <goonies> but i had to do it with a vanilla kernel since ubuntus patched kernel was giving me too many errors
[11:26] <dooglus> dli: 'regular' in the loosest sense of the word
[11:26] <goonies> the vanilla kernel compiled cleanly with no errors
[11:26] <wildman> hello, is there a repository where I can get updated (read newer) stable versions of some packages? (for example krita) dapper x86_64 here
[11:27] <dli> goonies, try <IP_ADDRESS>, it should work (except the bootsplash)
[11:27] <goonies> thats the one im trying
[11:27] <crimsun> goonies: that guide doesn't tell me how you generated your own initramfs, though.
[11:27] <goonies> let me show u my grub config
[11:27] <dli> wildman, stable means the official ubuntu :(
[11:27] <wildman> dli, and not that stable then?
[11:27] <dli> crimsun, you don't even know whether he uses initrd
[11:27] <bbrazil> wildman: edgy is very unstable
[11:28] <crimsun> dli: I asked him that earlier.
[11:28] <goonies> i use what ubuntu came with
[11:28] <wildman> bbrazil, I've had my dosis of cooker enough in my old days, thank you :)
[11:28] <dli> goonies, if you build your kernel, you don't have to use intrd, indeed, you'd better not
[11:29] <cavedive1> Hi. How can I remove keyring password? i don't plan to store sensitive pw there
[11:29] <goonies> dli, well it is in my boot folder
[11:29] <krang> Anyone know if wine is still the best option for running windows binaries? I have heard rumblings that there are better things, but I suspect they cost money (IE VMware)
[11:29] <goonies> initrd.img-<IP_ADDRESS>-custom
[11:29] <dli> goonies, all pre-built kernel uses init ram disk, (there's no way to build in all ide/scsi/fs drivers)
[11:29] <goonies> sudo make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-custom kernel_image kernel_headers is the command i used
[11:29] <gatekeeper> krang: use vmware if you have a copy of windows
[11:30] <farous> if you need to have initrid there is the option from the line i use fakeroot make-kpkg --append_to_version -686 --initrd --revision=rev.01 kernel_image modules_image
[11:30] <Renan_s2> krang, it is. If you need support, buy CrossOver Office, if it's for games, Cedega. VMware requires a Windows license and a very good machine.
[11:30] <hoy> how can i give a user an 'admin-like' access other than sudo
[11:30] <wildman> krang, there's vmplayer which can be made 'almost' workstation-like to use Windows
[11:30] <dli> goonies, you don't need initrd, if you build-in your need ide/scsi/fs drivers
[11:30] <Renan_s2> and there's VMware Server, which is almost full-featured
[11:30] <rexykik> hoy, you can add them to the wheel group so they can just use su instead
[11:30] <crimsun> goonies: that doesn't work properly. You need to regenerate the initramfs /manually/ after installing the linux-image deb.
[11:30] <goonies> dli, that could be whats going wrong
[11:30] <dooglus> hoy: you can configure sudo to give him whatever kind of access you want to
[11:30] <Gandalfar> what's the 'alernate' edition CD?
[11:30] <goonies> crimsun, how do i do it manually
[11:30] <goonies> and is it too late to do it now?
[11:31] <dooglus> rexykik: how does that work?
[11:31] <crimsun> goonies: use mkinitramfs.
[11:31] <Minty> /dev/hda1 /mnt/win ntfs nls=utf8,umask=0222 0  anyone tell me why this does not mount please
[11:31] <hoy> well, im on debian, i know, i don't know why im banned
[11:31] <goonies> can i just delete the one that command made and replace?
[11:31] <sebsebseb> banned from their channel:?
[11:31] <rexykik> Gandalfar, install cd w/o live cd acess
[11:31] <hoy> yeah
[11:31] <dli> goonies, consider, it's senseless to leave your ide/scsi/fs drivers as modules
[11:31] <sebsebseb> ,becuase you pissed them off maybe?
[11:31] <goonies> dli, there built in
[11:31] <Gandalfar> rexykik: cool, I think that is what I need :)
[11:31] <Renan_s2> Minty, what is the error when you type 'sudo mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/win' on a terminal?
[11:31] <hoy> no
[11:31] <rexykik> dooglus, su allows you to become the root user.
[11:31] <hoy> i just don't know why
[11:31] <sebsebseb> a mod should be able to unban you
[11:31] <dooglus> rexykik: right.  what's that got to do with the 'wheel' group?
[11:31] <dli> goonies, then, make-kpkg kernel-image , you can simply comment the intrd line in grub
[11:32] <krang> gatekeeper, Renan_s2, wildman: Thanks. Just wanted to check that wine is still the right choice for free windows emulation :-)
[11:32] <crimsun> goonies: if they're built-in, then don't use the initrd line.
[11:32] <rexykik> being in the wheel group allows you to use the su command
[11:32] <wildman> krang, yw
[11:32] <hoy> anyway, when you install debian, it asks for a second username
[11:32] <Minty> Renan_s2: mount: /dev/hda1 already mounted or /mnt/win busy
[11:32] <Minty> mount: according to mtab, /dev/hda1 is already mounted on /mnt/win
[11:32] <Minty> trevor@trevor-ubuntu:~$
[11:32] <hoy> but i deleted that username and created a new one
[11:32] <Renan_s2> Minty, then it is already mounted!
[11:32] <Renan_s2> try 'cd /mnt/win'
[11:32] <hoy> though, i don't know what access the 'old' user had
[11:32] <dooglus> rexykik: anyone can use the 'su' command, so long as they either (1) know the password for the account they're su'ing to or (2) are root
[11:32] <goonies> crimsun, let me try that
[11:32] <hoy> you get what im saying?
[11:32] <Renan_s2> and then 'ls'
[11:32] <dooglus> rexykik: I can 'su' to root, and don't even have a 'wheel' group on this pc
[11:33] <nzx> hey, i'm getting errors when i try to compile c source code that needs conio.h, what package do i need to install ?
[11:33] <goonies> question, why on other distros grub is controlled by grub.conf and in ubuntu its menu_1st
[11:33] <goonies> or something like that
[11:33] <gatekeeper> krang: how good it is depends on the app I think, if you look on the wine site it tells you how successfull (or not) they are for that app
[11:33] <Minty> Renan_s2: but I cannot see it in the 'computer' next to the cd or filesytem icon
[11:33] <krang> wildman: I am clearly behind on my internet lexicography. What's "yw" mean?
[11:33] <wildman> nzx, wasn't conio.h part of the standard C libs?
[11:33] <Renan_s2> Minty, then I don't know :/
[11:33] <dooglus> krang: you're welcome
[11:33] <Minty> Renan_s2: thanks anyway :)
[11:33] <cotroler> How can i add  shortcut to firefox or something like that?
[11:33] <erUSUL> wildman: nope
[11:33] <wildman> nzx, hmm... on DOS IIRC :) conio.h = console I/O
[11:33] <krang> gatekeeper: I'm not too bothered, as long as I have the best first port-of-call
[11:33] <rexykik> dooglus, maybe it is just a gentoo thing then
[11:34] <krang> dooglus: ahhhhh
[11:34] <stefg> !faq
[11:34] <ubotu> faq is http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions Official documentation is at http://help.ubuntu.com IRC FAQ: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRCResourcePage
[11:34] <runes> What settings do I need for postfix?
[11:34] <goonies> crimsun, brb
[11:34] <gatekeeper> krang: :-)
[11:34] <crimsun> goonies: just diff names for the same
[11:34] <Renan_s2> I think that there is no 'conio.h' for Linux, the application would need to be rewritten...
[11:34] <crimsun> nzx: what are you trying to compile?
[11:34] <dli> nzx, learn to use apt-file or packages.ubuntu.com : http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?word=conio.h&searchmode=searchfiles&case=insensitive&version=dapper&arch=i386
[11:34] <hoy> where is that 'wheel' group located?
[11:35] <dooglus> nzx: conio.h is in pacakges brickos, elks-libc, mingw32-runtime, and wine-dev
[11:35] <nzx> wildman, i'm trying to compile standard terminal app, but anjuta errors saying it cant find that file
[11:35] <Phazeman> hoy: vi /etc/groups
[11:35] <Phazeman> hoy: look for line that has a "wheel" in it
[11:35] <wildman> nzx: dooglus and dli answered you above
[11:35] <nzx> thanks guys
[11:35] <Renan_s2> Oops, I was using 'apt-cache' instead of 'apt-file'. no wonder it was not returning results.
[11:35] <dooglus> hoy: ubuntu doesn't use 'wheel' group
[11:35] <sebsebseb> !ubotu Chris dooglus
[11:35] <ubotu> I know nothing about Chris dooglus - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[11:36] <hoy> dooglus: im on debian
[11:36] <dooglus> !botabuse
[11:36] <ubotu> Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops
[11:36] <sebsebseb> lol Chris
[11:36] <dooglus> hoy: you're in #ubuntu.  but debian doesn't use wheel either
[11:36] <KnowledgEngi> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper
[11:36] <KnowledgEngi> from 6.16 to 6.26
[11:36] <KnowledgEngi> but video,,, nothing
[11:37] <Neeto> Hello
[11:37] <rexykik> hoy, sorry for the bad advice. I am a gentoo user primarily
[11:37] <rexykik> gentoo uses the wheel group
[11:37] <sebsebseb> yes hello Neeto what you want
[11:37] <mnp> my system locks up after a while and i can't get it to resume without a hard reset. anyone have an idea where to check to see whats up?
[11:37] <misterE> someone around that can help me get glade configured properly?  i'm having a hell of a time with it and can't find the correct solution in forums or google :\
[11:37] <Neeto> Just to know if there is any AM64 users..
[11:37] <Renan_s2> mnp, it may be a hardware problem
[11:38] <wildman> Neeto, yes, there are
[11:38] <Neeto> good
[11:38] <sebsebseb> !AM64
[11:38] <ubotu> I know nothing about AM64 - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[11:38] <mnp> Renan_s2: where do i check?
[11:38] <sebsebseb> !AMD64
[11:38] <ubotu> AMD64 and EMT64 are fully supported architectures on Ubuntu. See http://tinyurl.com/jv6tc for more information.
[11:38] <hoy> dooglus: because, look, when you install debian right, it asks you for a second username, but i deleted that username and created a new one, now my sounds don't work, it always say 'permission denied', so i want to know what access the 'old username' had
[11:38] <wildman> Neeto, wait, AMD64 I guess you meant? :)
[11:38] <JDStone> I'm having issues installing Ubuntu on a very new system with very new hardware.  I've tried Ubuntu server and Ubuntu Desktop, both give me kernel errors.
[11:38] <Renan_s2> mnp, you will have to do some troubleshooting. does it happen with other operating systems?
[11:38] <JDStone> any ideas?
[11:38] <Neeto> i just setup my Ati X700 with fglrx!
[11:38] <Gandalfar> hoy: adduser hoy audio
[11:38] <mnp> WIndows used to do it when it would hibernate, or suspend.
[11:38] <bl3ssing> hello guys
[11:39] <Renan_s2> mnp, do you get scrambled (distorted) video when the system crashes? if so, your video card is bad. I had a similar problem
[11:39] <runes> hey bl3ssing
[11:39] <sebsebseb> JDStone:  take Ubuntu to the scrap and just use Windows. nah just joking
[11:39] <xbox> i need help seting up my wireless. i'm a windows person... i need help please,,,, this is my first time usning linux.....
[11:39] <wildman> JDStone, try to disable as much bells and whistles as you can, then enabling them back 1 at a time to find the offending one?
[11:39] <Igaaa> Hi everybody
[11:39] <JDStone> lol
[11:39] <Neeto> Yeah... Dapper AMD64 rules :-)
[11:39] <JDStone> good one sebsebseb
[11:39] <Renan_s2> JDStone, what is this hardware?
[11:39] <bl3ssing> what can i do with the ubuntu 6 which i've already puted on my compact disk ... it is a start.exe file there and I tried from ubuntu 5.10 to install the ubuntu 6
[11:39] <mnp> Renan_s2: no scrambling, just a black (but backlit) screen with no response from the HD or OS if i hit crtl-c, or anything like that.
[11:39] <erUSUL> !wifi > xbox
[11:39] <bl3ssing> why isn't that working?
[11:39] <bl3ssing> :(
[11:39] <Igaaa> does someone use Warcraft 3 with wine ???
[11:39] <Renan_s2> mnp, strange
[11:39] <bl3ssing> hey runes
[11:39] <JDStone> wildman, what do you mean by bells and whistles?

[11:39] <sebsebseb> xbox:  how old is your PC?
[11:40] <xbox> is a new pc....
[11:40] <wildman> JDStone, all the nice and bleeding edge features you can think of
[11:40] <Neeto> Ok guys see you tomorrow..
[11:40] <Neeto> bye
[11:40] <mnp> Renan_s2: also, if i hit by power button normally in ubuntu it will just hard shut off. if i push it when its stalled like that, i don't get anything unless i hold it down for 4+ secs to do a hard shutdown
[11:40] <xbox> dell laptop...

[11:41] <sebsebseb> ok and you got a WEP?
[11:41] <bl3ssing> what can i do with the ubuntu 6 which i've already puted on my compact disk ... it is a start.exe file there and I tried from ubuntu 5.10 to install the ubuntu 6. HELP! Does anyone see my HELP word? :D
[11:41] <wildman> JDStone, that is very new indeed... dunno if any 'stable' distro out there supports such a thing :P
[11:41] <hoy> Gandalfar: i still get the same error
[11:41] <Igaaa> sebsebseb > With the CVS version ?
[11:41] <JDStone> debian installed fine
[11:41] <xbox> airlink 101 awlc3021 pcm
[11:41] <sebsebseb> have you even tryed to set up the wireless in Ubuntu?
[11:41] <Gandalfar> hoy: did you relogin?
[11:41] <bl3ssing> seems that I have to work by myown ... witoout any helping ...
[11:41] <bl3ssing> ok guys.
[11:41] <hoy> Gandalfar: do i have to?
[11:41] <wildman> JDStone, I was talking about the hardware, not the software, but it looks like you indeed have bleeding edge hardware. dunno if the kernel supports it
[11:41] <Gandalfar> hoy: yes
[11:41] <sebsebseb> not sure gaaa  and I haven't even installed Cedega yet myself
[11:41] <bl3ssing> see us with ... ubuntu 6.0.6 installed.
[11:41] <runes> bl3ssing,
[11:41] <bl3ssing> see us later.
[11:41] <bl3ssing> :d

[11:41] <bl3ssing> here I am.
[11:41] <hoy> Gandalfar: k ill try that
[11:42] <hoy> dindin: for what?

[11:42] <JDStone> yeah, right, no way
[11:42] <xbox> ok...
[11:42] <dli> JDStone, you can get it from apt-get.org
[11:42] <Gandalfar> how big is basic installation of ubuntu?
[11:42] <wildman> JDStone, just throwing ideas ;)
[11:42] <dindin> hoy: If you have a bad ram stick, it'll tell you. It's one of the pieces of hardware that can cause weird stuff like this
[11:42] <xbox> i need help using iwconfig....

[11:43] <Gandalfar> rsk: k

[11:43] <sebsebseb> ok right so
[11:43] <m3talc0re> where does ubuntu store its fonts?
[11:43] <wildman> JDStone, the wors that can happen: you wait till October for new versions of distros and try again :)
[11:43] <wildman> JDStone, wors->worst
[11:43] <mnp> Renan_s2: any ideas where to go?
[11:43] <sebsebseb> xbox:  have you tryed to set up your wireless at all in Ubuntu?  if not I can probably help you
[11:43] <Renan_s2> mnp, no :/
[11:43] <bl3ssing> nope runes
[11:43] <bl3ssing> :(
[11:43] <JDStone> October... hmm
[11:43] <goonies> when i comment the intrd line i get the following error, VFS: Cannot open root device "sdb2" or unknown-block
[11:44] <wildman> JDStone, AM2 is very new hardware... dunno if even XP works fine on it (or if it works on it like a super AthlonXP)
[11:44] <interfear> How do I a shortcut on my gnome desktop pointing to a directory on my box ?
[11:44] <mnp> Renan_s2: can i ask another question about getting ubuntu to load certain programs in certain workspaces?
[11:44] <runes> bl3ssing, checking for you I don't want to give you wrong info sec....
[11:44] <hoy> Gandalfar: anyway, what else do i need to add other than 'audio' ?
[11:44] <goonies> Please append a correct "root=" boot option
[11:44] <Renan_s2> mnp, ask
[11:44] <JDStone> stefg, when it partitions the hdd or installs packages, it spits out kernel errors
[11:44] <Renan_s2> to the channel, because I don't know
[11:44] <Gandalfar> hoy: maybe udev or something
[11:44] <wildman> interfear, through the network? or on the same machine (trivial)?
[11:44] <xbox> yes... using network settings
[11:44] <sebsebseb> oh right ok
[11:44] <dindin> hoy: Okay, I was just sayin... Everything was working fine for me too, then I got a freeze and a badly damaged ext3 partition (fixed with fsk), and ran memtest86+... sure enough, bad stick...
[11:44] <JDStone> wildman, I knew AM2 was a bad idea
[11:44] <mnp> Renan_s2: i want to start ubuntu and have the terminal load full screen in workspace 1, mail and chat in workspace two, etc...
[11:44] <goonies> crimsun, Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: unable to mount root from unknown-block(0,0)
[11:44] <Gandalfar> can an existing ubuntu user paste what `id` command says for hoy
[11:44] <mnp> Renan_s2: is there a script i can write for that kind of thing?
[11:44] <goonies> can someone help me with this problem =\
[11:44] <Renan_s2> I don't know
[11:45] <wildman> JDStone, very new hardware architectures are for any OS I guess...
[11:45] <bl3ssing> i mean ... I've restarted my computer (I've installed kubuntu 5.10 and winxp proffessional) ... and my cd with kubuntu 6.0 .... was in the cd-rom (my computer was ready to boot from this cd and it did it).
[11:45] <sebsebseb> xbox:  and you put in WEP key if you got one.  and made it the connection hex or whatever?
[11:45] <xbox> no wep key...
[11:45] <stefg> JDStone: which CD are/were you using? desktop or alternate
[11:45] <xbox> what about the network name....
[11:45] <interfear> wildman: on the same machine, i have a direcotry (/dump) which is a seperate mounted partition and i just want an icon on my desktop for for it.. i cant seem to figure out this simple task
[11:45] <crimsun> goonies: post the .config used to generate that kernel.
[11:45] <dli> goonies, you don't have one of the needed driver: ide/scsi/fs
[11:45] <KnowledgEngi> how many years is needed for see video on ubuntu ?
[11:45] <interfear> wildman: basically the windows eqvilent of add shortcut.
[11:45] <mnp> Renan_s2: or lets start simple. if i am launching a program fro mthe terminal (i like using the keyboard over a mouse) can i set it to launch to a specific workspace ?
[11:45] <bl3ssing> runes, the pb was that at a certain moment, the computer doesn't work ... just showing me that some pb-s appeared ... after the new kub.'s saying that the linux kernel's fine...
[11:45] <runes> bl3ssing, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[11:45] <wildman> interfear, create a launcher, folder type
[11:45] <Renan_s2> mnp, that is the problem; I don't know
[11:45] <goonies> ill post the config
[11:46] <wildman> interfear, yes, it's not very intuitive :)
[11:46] <sebsebseb> xbox:  when you open up networking what you get?  wireless ethernet and modem?
[11:46] <dli> goonies, better post your lspci also
[11:46] <mnp> does anyone know how to launch a program from the terminal into a specific workspace?
[11:46] <JDStone> stefg, server 6.06
[11:46] <oliver> I'm doing a kernel compilation, and I'm patching. Patch instructions say to apply patch *after* disabling a config option. Should I run config first, then patch?
[11:46] <dura> mnp: Depends on the window manager
[11:46] <bobbyw> anyone know how to burn cds with cd-text
[11:46] <mnp> dura: gnome
[11:46] <Samus_Aran> still having Postfix issues.  does anyone know how I can determine why Postfix won't accept any local connections ?  I am using the same config file from my two previous distros, so it should be fine
[11:47] <bl3ssing> runes, i don't want to upgrade. I've went to wallgreen shopping store to buy a cd for this kubuntu 6 (so my kub.5 will be out of my library) and ... already copied to my cd
[11:47] <dura> mnp: hmmm
[11:47] <xbox> i get 2 wireless connection... 1 ethernet connetion and modem connet. the   wireless connection is active....
[11:47] <dli> oliver, make sure you run " make oldconfig " after patching
[11:47] <stefg> JDStone: so i'll assume the 64bit flavour?
[11:47] <help-the-n00b> How do I make window borders?
[11:47] <dura> mnp: Tried searching http://www.google.com/linux ?
[11:47] <wildman> interfear, hmm... no it doesn't work here :-| thought it would, sorry.
[11:47] <JDStone> no, I'm using x86
[11:47] <m3talc0re> someone know?
[11:47] <cerberus> Could someon please tell me how to remove the drum sounds you hear when greeterd with the logon screen.
[11:47] <bobbyw> the audio cd creator in ubuntu seems.... ultra super mega minimalistic
[11:47] <m3talc0re> where does ubuntu store it's fonts?
[11:47] <JDStone> stefg, no, I'm using x86
[11:47] <sebsebseb> xbox:  select the wireless that you use and set that up.  and that should do it I guess.  sorry,  but I got to go now
[11:47] <oliver> dli: thanks
[11:47] <Samus_Aran> when I run "/etc/init.d/postfix start", the process "/usr/lib/postfix/master" starts and stays running, but I can't connect to localhost (connection refused)
[11:47] <help-the-n00b> Help?
[11:47] <mnp> dura: i'd really like to use as many keyboard commands as possible and not have to rellly on my mouse. (its a notebook and slows me down to move my hands around.)
[11:47] <help-the-n00b> Please?
[11:48] <help-the-n00b> Please?
[11:48] <bobbyw> cerberus: perferences -> sound
[11:48] <help-the-n00b> How do I make window borders?
[11:48] <bobbyw> ...
[11:48] <dli> mnp, that's why they have trackpoint
[11:48] <xbox> ok
[11:48] <xbox> thank you
[11:48] <Samus_Aran> m3talc0re: look at the directories in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and /etc/fonts/fonts.conf
[11:48] <mnp> dli: still dont like it. ive got a fingerpad and its not great.
[11:48] <cotroler> is there wine for 64bit o/s ?
[11:48] <Renan_s2> cotroler, yes
[11:48] <Renan_s2> it should work
[11:48] <wildman> interfear, right click on the folder->create shortcut (or link or whatever, I dont' use EN Gnome here), then move the shortcut to the Desktop
[11:48] <help-the-n00b> How do I make window borders?
[11:49] <wildman> interfear, again, not very 'intuitive'
[11:49] <cotroler> sudo dpkg -i wine-0.9.17_wow_amd64.deb
[11:49] <davegoodson> Hi, i have a problem with flash and firefox, I can't hear any sound on any flash animations and videos.
[11:49] <cotroler> i typed that and it gave me an error
[11:49] <rexykik> trackpoint ftw
[11:49] <xbox> hi...
[11:49] <Renan_s2> cotroler, what error?
[11:49] <bobbyw> cotroler: what error
[11:49] <help-the-n00b> How do I make window borders?
[11:49] <help-the-n00b> How do I make window borders?
[11:49] <goonies> dli, crimsun, http://pastebin.ca/101429 (.config), http://pastebin.ca/101431 (lspci)
[11:49] <stefg> JDStone: hmmm... seems then that the kernel really has its difficulties with that hardware. If you feel adventurous you could test Edgy knot1, which has 2.6.17 to see if it changes something (#ubuntu+1 should have a link)
[11:49] <cotroler> cannot access archive: No such file or directory
[11:49] <cotroler> cannot access archive: No such file or directory
[11:49] <xbox> i need help ..
[11:49] <bobbyw> help-the-n00b: google "gnome window border tutorial"
[11:49] <help-the-n00b> Ok.
[11:49] <xbox> my wireless connetion is active...
[11:49] <Renan_s2> cotroler, then the file doesn't exist
[11:49] <goonies> dli, crimsun, thanks for helping out, i appreciate it
[11:49] <cerberus> bobbyw, I have already disabled all sounds possible in the sound preferences dialog box, the initial sound when greated with the logon screen isn't available to be disabled there.
[11:49] <Renan_s2> are you sure that the file name is right?
[11:49] <xbox> but is not connet
[11:50] <help-the-n00b> does /exit work here?
[11:50] <Renan_s2> type `ls *.deb`
[11:50] <bobbyw> cotroler: do you actually HAVE that?
[11:50] <xbox> i need helpl.....
[11:50] <JDStone> stefg, what kernel does 6.06 use?
[11:50] <cotroler> no
[11:50] <bobbyw> cerberus: then the GDM perfs
[11:50] <Renan_s2> JDStone, 2.6.15
[11:50] <stefg> JDStone: 2.6.15
[11:50] <Renan_s2> renan@therion:~$ uname -a
[11:50] <xbox> using then new

[11:50] <cotroler> i actually got this command:  sudo dpkg -i wine-0.9.17_wow_i386.deb
[11:50] <Farhad> when i type apt-get return this error: apt-get: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6)
[11:50] <Farhad> what should i do
[11:50] <wildman> xbox, please try to put all your question in a single, clear, and complete, sentence. thanks.
[11:50] <cotroler> but i changet it to amd64
[11:50] <Renan_s2> cotroler, do you actually have wine-0.9.17_wow_i386.deb
[11:50] <bobbyw> cere: system/admin/login window
[11:50] <JDStone> ok, I guess I'll give that a try, thanks stefg
[11:50] <Renan_s2> ?
[11:50] <xbox> ok
[11:50] <JDStone> and everyone else
[11:51] <xbox> i need help
[11:51] <bobbyw> in the "accessibility" tab
[11:51] <Renan_s2> cotroler, type `ls wine*.deb`
[11:51] <cotroler> Renan_s2: no
[11:51] <cotroler> Renan_s2: i see
[11:51] <wildman> JDStone, good luck with that 'beast' ;)
[11:51] <cotroler> Renan_s2: bash: Is: command not found
[11:51] <bobbyw> that's is
[11:51] <bobbyw> not ls
[11:51] <bobbyw> L
[11:51] <hoy> can you live with just 'root' account, no user?
[11:51] <m3talc0re> samus
[11:52] <m3talc0re> wtf are the fonts.conf?
[11:52] <Renan_s2> hoy, you can, but it is stupid
[11:52] <hoy> is it dangerous, though
[11:52] <bobbyw> hoy: it's highly possible, and highly stupid
[11:52] <Renan_s2> and there is no point in doing it
[11:52] <m3talc0re> it looks like an xml file of listed fonts, but i see no actual physical font files
[11:52] <cotroler> Renan_s2: told me: wine-0.9.17_wow_i386.deb
[11:52] <bobbyw> okay
[11:52] <bobbyw> then you were typing the wrong filename
[11:52] <Farhad> I want help
[11:52] <bobbyw> your processor isn't an amd64
[11:53] <gatekeeper> cotroler: if you are using amd64 and want firefox & flash then you need this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[11:53] <bobbyw> Farhad: just ask the question
[11:53] <cotroler> its intel64 ;)
[11:53] <davegoodson> Hi, i have a problem with flash and firefox, I can't hear any sound on any flash animations and videos. How do I fix that?
[11:53] <zzzy> does anyone else have problems with audigy ls?
[11:53] <Farhad> bobbyw, when i type apt-get return this error: apt-get: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6)
[11:53] <Samus_Aran> m3talc0re: my fonts.conf and local.conf just has directories.  I added my own font dirs to it
[11:53] <bobbyw> hmm
[11:54] <dli> goonies, you have ATA support in modules
[11:54] <cotroler> bobbyw: my proeccor is intel em64t but i have amd64 kubuntu installed
[11:54] <goonies> hmmm
[11:54] <goonies> let me check that out
[11:54] <goonies> should i even have initrd support in my kernel if im not going to use it
[11:55] <zzzy> can anyone record with audigy ls?
[11:55] <dli> goonies, it's senseless to have something you always need as modules, built-in
[11:55] <goonies> dli, that could be the wrong config, if not i might have overlooked it
[11:55] <goonies> i feel like an idiot
[11:55] <davegoodson> Hi, i have a problem with flash and firefox, I can't hear any sound on any flash animations and videos. How do I fix that?
[11:56] <Renan_s2> davegoodson, are you running any audio players?
[11:56] <JW> davegoodson - have you installed alsa-oss ?
[11:56] <Renan_s2> because I have a similar problem here, If I have, say, amaroK playing, I can't listen to audio in Flash
[11:56] <JW> davegoodson - it needs alsa-oss
[11:56] <stefg> davegoodson: add FIREFOX_DSP=esd as an env variable, possibly in .bashrc
[11:56] <Farhad> anyboy Can help me
[11:56] <davegoodson> Renan_s2: not at the same time
[11:57] <Farhad> my question
[11:57] <Farhad> when i type apt-get return this error: apt-get: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6)
[11:57] <dli> goonies, you don't even need initrd support in kernel
[11:57] <JW> davegoodson -alsa-oss is better, so sound is better in sync
[11:57] <goonies>  dli yeah ive turned it off
[11:57] <davegoodson> ok
[11:58] <davegoodson> JW: will i find that in the normal place to download programs?
[11:58] <La_PaRCa> Is there a way, however rudimentary, to edit flash files in linux?
[11:58] <dooglus> Farhad: can you run 'dpkg'?
[11:58] <JW> davegoodson - yes, synaptic
[11:58] <Farhad> dooglus, yes
[11:58] <goonies> is sata considered a scsi drive?
[11:58] <GlassCasket> Is there any way I can setup my wireless in the Ubuntu live CD?
[11:58] <GlassCasket> goonies: Yes.
[11:58] <dooglus> Farhad: you can use dpkg to install whatever packages you need to fix apt-get - any idea how you broke it?
[11:58] <dli> goonies, read the config ( I didn't check initrd support) http://pastebin.ca/101435
[11:59] <davegoodson> JW: will that fix my problems with skype also? because i can't seem to get any sound from that either
[11:59] <cerberus> bobbyw, thanks turns out there's an option in the gdm.conf file
[11:59] <bl3ssing> which linux version's the BEST? can anyone tell me?
[11:59] <bl3ssing> even I'm downloading now kubuntu 6, still asking ... which linux version's the best!
[11:59] <Farhad> dooglus, maybe , I upgraded it to egdy version,
[11:59] <m3talc0re> how the hell do i install new fonts?
[11:59] <cerberus> bl3ssing, dumb question, depends on what you want
[11:59] <Renan_s2> bl3ssing, try this link: http://www.zegeniestudios.net/ldc/index.php
[12:00] <dli> goonies, make sure you " make oldconfig" , if you want to use the one I posted
[12:00] <JW> davegoodson - if it does not work after adding alsa-oss, "sudo gedit /usr/bin/firefox" and look to have this (aoss) MOZ_PROGRAM="aoss ${MOZ_DIST_BIN}/firefox-bin"
[12:00] <Renan_s2> there is a test to select what distro is best for you
[12:00] <dli> bl3ssing, the latest <IP_ADDRESS>
[12:00] <davegoodson> JW: oki thanks :)
[12:00] <GlassCasket> bl3ssing: It's all preference man, download some live CD and check them out. :)
[12:00] <goonies> dli it auto loaded with the old .config thats stored in usr/src/linux
