[09:28] <johnybot> Tixer2:  keep more than 1gb out of 60 in backup
[09:29] <n2diy> Danger, op present!
[09:29] <nj786> johnybot: ok now how do  irun this

[09:29] <nj786> johnybot: becuase i cant double click it
[09:29] <nj786> johnybot: yesi  know but how
[09:29] <subtledecision> cookies are just as bad, use sessions
[09:29] <Sinderking> 04major

[09:29] <johnybot> nj786: what type of file is the flash 8 file
[09:30] <nj786> johnybot: .exe
[09:30] <MajorPayne> !flash | nj786
[09:30] <ubotu> nj786: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[09:30] <johnybot> run it the same way you got the other exe to run and complain
[09:30] <MajorPayne> nj786: You really should read that.
[09:31] <Phantom19> i'm a newbie here, what about managing permissions in ubuntu?especially file owned by root
[09:31] <leo> he's trying to run a flash file compiled in .exe
[09:31] <johnybot> running windows programs on linux is like shooting an arrow straight up
[09:31] <MajorPayne> Phantom19: chmod.  Type: man chmod to learn all about Unix permissions.
[09:31] <subtledecision> with wind
[09:31] <Tixer2> Half the time you'll lose an eye?
[09:31] <johnybot> Phantom19: mostly Command line
[09:31] <Tixer2> The other half you won't?
[09:31] <nj786> johnybot: its a .exe file both the game and the flash file
[09:32] <johnybot> Phantom19: you can run nautilus as root but its a nono
[09:32] <Casey84401> #Sexroom

[09:32] <nj786> leo: meaning?
[09:32] <johnybot> nj786: install flash than run teh game
[09:32] <MajorPayne> nj786: Don't even try to install flash with that exe.  Read that link ubotu told you about.
[09:32] <nj786> MajorPayne: i did it doesnt helo
[09:32] <nj786> help
[09:32] <subtledecision> lets have a flash install race

[09:33] <nj786> johnybot: how do i install it>
[09:33] <leo> nj786, isnt it a poker game? im sure there are hundreds of poker games for linux
[09:33] <subtledecision> lol, wait I already do
[09:33] <johnybot> you want to run a windows game made by microsoft on linux?
[09:33] <Lucios> !bin
[09:33] <nj786> leo: yes but i am trying to play with my friend who are windowes users they have setup a table
[09:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:33] <Tixer2> What would cause one directory on a drive to become corrupt?
[09:33] <Tixer2> With everything else fine
[09:33] <johnybot> nj786: use yahoo poker :P
[09:33] <Nurohman> halo everybody, can u help me , i wan to mount ncpfs /netware via /etc/fstab. i m using edgy
[09:33] <n2diy> johnybot: why not?
[09:34] <Lucifer_arma> 'm trying to follow hte directions here to get an ltsp client that boots without need of a cdrom or floppy:
[09:34] <Lucifer_arma> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSPBootingClientsWithoutPxe?highlight=%28ltsp%29
[09:34] <nj786> ok well how do i install this flash.exe
[09:34] <astro76> Tixer2, they are completely separate partitions on different mount points (assume you still mean your /media/www)
[09:34] <MajorPayne> nj786: You can't install that.
[09:34] <Lucifer_arma> after following all those directions, the thing still booted into windows 2000 (the last OS on the hard drive)
[09:34] <Phantom19> thanks all, i'm out, c u later
[09:34] <subtledecision> Tixer2: plenty of reasons...power flash, kool-aid, cats, kicking it?
[09:34] <leo> nj786, convert them and play poker2d :-D
[09:34] <johnybot> Tixer2: sudo corrupt /media/www
[09:35] <Lucifer_arma> not sure what my question is.  I guess it's "why?"  :)
[09:35] <Nurohman> halo everybody, can u help me , i want to mount ncpfs / netware via /etc/fstab. i m using edgy
[09:35] <nj786> lol i give up
[09:35] <nj786> lol screw it
[09:35] <nj786> i give up
[09:35] <johnybot> Lucifer_arma: is the boot order set up in the bios?
[09:36] <Lucifer_arma> yes
[09:36] <Lucifer_arma> theroetically I wiped the hard drive out completely
[09:36] <johnybot> haha
[09:36] <Lucifer_arma> I'm thinking of going ahead and creating some filesystems just to Make Sure ;)
[09:36] <Lucios> i got problem in my /et/resolv.conf
[09:36] <Tixer2> astro76: It's one partition, on one mount point. /media/disk/www is corrupt, /media/disk/www/windows isn't
[09:36] <Tixer2> Why would www be cursed and not windows?
[09:36] <Tixer2> I'd think it's the other way around
[09:37] <Sinderking> hi again everyone, i need help.
[09:37] <Lucifer_arma> because microsoft doesn't own www?
[09:37] <Lucios> the ip dns that i write in the file will change to my ip router
[09:37] <johnybot> Sinderking: shoot!
[09:37] <MajorPayne> Tixer2: Are they all on the same partition or is something a mount point?
[09:37] <Lucios> the connection so slow when it change to ip router
[09:37] <Lucios> how to make it will not change?
[09:37] <leo> well... my subwoofer is still not working but hopefully gutsy will take care of that... i had a great time nonetheless
[09:37] <Sinderking> johnybot: My com hangs after I logon
[09:37] <astro76> Tixer2, ahh you said /media/disk/windows before ;)
[09:37] <Lucios> anyone?
[09:37] <leo> everybody have a good day/night... im off to play the mana world :-D
[09:38] <Lucifer_arma> Lucios: turn of dhcp?
[09:38] <weston> bye bye
[09:38] <Lucios> it will make i headache
[09:38] <astro76> Tixer2, uh, it could just be the permissions on the windows subdir allow you to write, but you can't write to root. what was the error?
[09:38] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: What you say it hangs, what do you see?
[09:38] <Sinderking> johnybot: no button, no backgroud, no navigation bar appears at all
[09:38] <Tixer2> astro76: my bad, i meant /media/disk/windows
[09:38] <Lucios> the dhcp in my router is on
[09:38] <johnybot> Lucifer_arma: http://www.opendns.com/start/unix.php read the DHCP part
[09:38] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: That is after you log on?
[09:38] <Tixer2> It kept giving me an IO error whenever I tried to write to that folder
[09:38] <astro76> Tixer2, sorry I read that completely wrong
[09:38] <Lucifer_arma> Lucios: no, turn off dhcp on your computer
[09:38] <subtledecision> opendns os cool
[09:38] <subtledecision> is*
[09:38] <Tixer2> and when I brought the drive up from my server room, it gave me a blank folder when mounted on windows
[09:38] <Sinderking> MajorPayne: I see only the brown window at the top-left of my screen
[09:38] <Lucifer_arma> I think johnybot's link was intended for Lucios
[09:38] <Sinderking> MajorPayne: And that's all
[09:39] <astro76> Tixer2, what was the error again?
[09:39] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: Is that after or before you try to log on by typing your username/password?
[09:39] <Lucios> Lucifer_arma: how to turn of dhcp in my computer?
[09:39] <Crav> anyone know of a prgm to brute force a rar password (i forgot my old pass!)
[09:39] <Sinderking> after typing user/pass
[09:39] <Tixer2> Something that it can 't write due to an IO device error
[09:39] <Lucifer_arma> Lucios: go to network settings and give it a static IP?
[09:40] <astro76> Tixer2, what kind of filesystem is it?
[09:40] <Lucifer_arma> of course, you'll need new dns servers then
[09:40] <Tixer2> NTFS
[09:40] <Sinderking> .
[09:40] <johnybot> Tixer2: haha
[09:40] <Lucios> Lucifer_arma: u mean in networkmanager
[09:40] <kimmey> any im-program in linux that transfer files with normal speed?
[09:40] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: Humm.  Ok.  Sorry.  I thought I might be able to help.
[09:40] <johnybot> kimmey: gaim / pidgin ?
[09:40] <subtledecision> gaim does
[09:40] <Lucifer_arma> now if I can just get my thin client to boot without a cd...
[09:40] <kimmey> when sending to other with msn messenger its very slow
[09:40] <weston> is there a website where a linux newbie should start?
[09:40] <astro76> Tixer2, have you tried a diskcheck in windows?
[09:40] <kimmey> like 5Kbs
[09:40] <kimmey> No, not mine
[09:41] <kimmey> 1-5KBs all the time
[09:41] <kimmey> Works great in windows tho
[09:41] <subtledecision> firewall?
[09:41] <kimmey> I get like 50 there
[09:41] <kimmey> I have no firewall
[09:41] <Sinderking> MajorPayne: it's ok Major, i can still run Ubuntu with LiveCD
[09:41] <johnybot> kimmey:  :O
[09:41] <astro76> Tixer2, also there's ntfsfix in package ntfsprogs
[09:41] <Tixer2> no point in a disk check, since I have my web files
[09:41] <MajorPayne> !enter | kimmey
[09:41] <ubotu> kimmey: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:41] <Tixer2> I just lost some "critical" data, if you know what I mean :)
[09:41] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: Yea, but that is slow.
[09:41] <johnybot> Sinderking: try reinstalling, it couldnt hurt
[09:41] <Crav> weston: ubuntuforums.org can answer just about any question, go to the absolute begginer talk area, and there's a walkthrough. they'll be able to help you with just about anything
[09:41] <weston> k thanks
[09:42] <Lucifer_arma> !version
[09:42] <ubotu> To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[09:42] <Sinderking> johnybot: i've reinstalled for 3 times already XD (or i have to burn a new cd??)
[09:42] <MajorPayne> kimmey: If it is a small file, I sugest just puting it as an email atachment, larger files, scp is great.
[09:42] <kimmey> ye
[09:42] <MajorPayne> kimmey: But that is not an IM client.  Has nothing to do with IM.
[09:42] <johnybot> Sinderking: well you could try Kubuntu or Xubuntu but i dont know if they'd work
[09:42] <subtledecision> might want to re-download the iso and reburn the iso
[09:43] <kimmey> but I have friends (girls) who dosent know stuff like that.. just sending via pidin as I do know is the best ;p
[09:43] <Sinderking> johnybot: what's the different between them?
[09:43] <johnybot> Sinderking:  the Desktop manager and default programs
[09:43] <kimmey> MajorPayne: have I ever said that scp or sending files via mail is an IM-client?
[09:43] <Sinderking>  okay..
[09:43] <johnybot> Sinderking: they can all do pretty much the same stuff
[09:44] <MajorPayne> kimmey: No, but you did say "any im-program in linux that transfer files with normal speed?".
[09:44] <MajorPayne> kimmey: I suggest 2 things, but nither of them is an im-program.
[09:44] <subtledecision> Kimmey: you also have to fact in the other bandwidth the other person is using before/during the file transfer.
[09:44] <Sinderking> hey how do you perform a gossip
[09:44] <subtledecision> and distance
[09:44] <johnybot> !gossip ?
[09:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gossip ? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:45] <Sinderking> thx
[09:45] <kimmey> I did som googling and only find that the transfer-issue is a bug in gaim/piding.. Ive tried with AMSN but thats not much better. and, subtledecision: I send to lots of people.. all of them arent downloading/uploading so much that 1-5KBs should be normal speed :P
[09:45] <Lucifer_arma> did you try kopete?
[09:45] <NETWizz> Hi
[09:45] <NETWizz> I want an LCARS menu
[09:46] <Sinderking> I mean when you chat, you can speak directly to me (sinderking: ....). how can i gossip back to you
[09:46] <NETWizz> for Ubuntu
[09:46] <johnybot> NETWizz: dont we all
[09:46] <kimmey> Ive tried but it just seems to be fucked up unless im in KDE.. not sure what it is
[09:46] <NETWizz> Shoudl be doable
[09:46] <grizm> I want LCARS too
[09:46] <johnybot> just type johnybot:
[09:46] <Sinderking> haha ok so there was no command at all
[09:46] <kimmey> It takes about 1-2 min before I can see my contacts, and its hard to even send messages..
[09:47] <Lucifer_arma> uninstall all viruses and worms and you'll be fine
[09:47] <johnybot> http://hardware.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/10/24/0347245
[09:47] <subtledecision> same here lucifer_arma
[09:47] <MajorPayne> kimmey: Sending files is not very well supported in all IM clients that I have tried.  Not to say there is any out there.
[09:47] <EADG_> Antbody know what this process is doing? Pegged my cpu @ 100% and it's been running for over 7 minutes... /usr/bin/krfb_httpd --kinetd 21 o the inetd socket.cp3/dhclient.ath0.leases ath0 gid=46
[09:47] <Tixer2> If you need to send files, set up apache.
[09:47] <MajorPayne> kimmey: You may want to look for an alternative.
[09:47] <subtledecision> have you tried email Kimmey?
[09:47] <subtledecision> that always works
[09:47] <Tixer2> Just run a web server, and put the stuff you want to share there
[09:48] <MajorPayne> subtledecision: Unless it is a very large file.
[09:48] <Lucios> Lucifer_arma: ok..done..
[09:48] <subtledecision> lol, Ticer2, that was my first thought
[09:48] <dromer> how can I find out what the cause of a kernel-panic was?
[09:48] <johnybot> EADG_: http based VNC client
[09:48] <subtledecision> tixer2**
[09:48] <kimmey> Ye, I want :) any suggestions? :) Yes but.. i prefer to send via im and if its possible to make it work better some way I do that :)
[09:48] <Sinderking> johnybot: i just recognize that i may have made partitions to my HD using wrong file system and that maybe the cause
[09:48] <MajorPayne> kimmey: Like I say, it's not supported very well in any IM cilent I tried.
[09:49] <Lucifer_arma> konversation does well
[09:49] <johnybot> Sinderking: well you can tell it to go with default partitions
[09:49] <dolog> Hey Now  I have folder Called Windows in my FileSystem Drive, What I can do after that to mount Ntfs ?
[09:49] <EADG_> johnybot: thanks. I'd better look into it cince I don't run vnc
[09:49] <Sinderking> johnybot: what file system do i have to use with ubuntu? ext3 and swap right?
[09:50] <bullgard4> What does the dmesg message "ACPI: Sleep Button (CM) [SLPB] " mean?
[09:50] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: You can use many different file systems with Ubuntu.  ext3 is the default.
[09:50] <johnybot> Sinderking: try kubuntu or xubuntu
[09:50] <johnybot> !xubuntu
[09:50] <ubotu> 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
[09:51] <kimmey> xfce is nice :)
[09:51] <johnybot> i used xfce untill it failed
[09:51] <Sinderking> MajorPayne: so if i use only ext3 so i can still run ubuntu right? i thought i must use ext3 and swap together
[09:51] <dolog> Now  I have folder Called Windows in my FileSystem Drive, What I can do after that to mount Ntfs ?:'(
[09:52] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: Swap is different.  I suggest creating a swap partition about 2x the size of your RAM.
[09:52] <johnybot> Swap size war!
[09:52] <subtledecision> !patience | dolog
[09:52] <ubotu> dolog: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[09:52] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: The rest of your partitions can be ext3 if you want.
[09:52] <dolog> Thanks subtledecision
[09:52] <Sinderking> MajorPayne: sorry i'm really confused now
[09:52] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: But the swap size is really up to you.
[09:52] <Lucifer_arma> I used xfce until it failed, too, which means I used it for about 2 minutes
[09:53] <Sinderking> Major: just a sec
[09:53] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: Ok.
[09:53] <subtledecision> also dolog did you check the forum?
[09:54] <sauvin> I used xfce and it took a real beating before I got bored and turned the computer off.
[09:54] <intangir> why is ubuntu mounting one of my partitions and putting a link to it on the desktop
[09:54] <dolog> subtledecision:  plz I know but really am Here since 3 or 4 hrs ago
[09:54] <intangir> i dont want it being linked to on the desktop
[09:54] <csc`> intangir: because its gnome
[09:54] <Sinderking> MajorPayne: if i have to 2GB of RAM then i requre 4GB of swap and the remaning is ext3 to have ubuntu run properly ??
[09:54] <intangir> it doesnt link to /boot or /home, why does it show /reserved...
[09:54] <intangir> when i dont want it even mounting at all
[09:54] <sauvin> it's not just gnome that does that. KDE does it, too.
[09:54] <kimmey> I have used xfce for a long time now, never had any problems with it
[09:54] <johnybot> Sinderking: you only need 2g but if you want to suspend and some stuff you need more
[09:55] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: You don't need 2x swap.  With 2gb maybe try 3 gb of swap.
[09:55] <intangir> also why does my fstab file have weird IDs of some kind for my partitions? rather than their dev links?
[09:55] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: But yes, you can make the remaining ext3 if you wish.
[09:55] <Navi_> The RAM*2 swap thing is outdated, you really don't need it unless you plan on suspending to disk.
[09:55] <Sinderking> johnybot: could you please give me some example of stuffs?
[09:55] <TTilus> Sinderking: it's really up to you, you don't _need_ swap at all, but a general rule of thumb is 2xRAM
[09:55] <johnybot> Sinderking:  just go with the auto allocate in the install
[09:56] <astro76> !uuid | intangir
[09:56] <ubotu> intangir: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[09:56] <kimmey> If you have 2GB of ram, you dont need so much swap?
[09:56] <tarzeau> how can i quickly register a font with fontconfig?
[09:56] <MajorPayne> kimmey: If you are going to hibernate or anything like that you do.
[09:56] <TTilus> Sinderking: and as Navi_ said, if you do not plan to suspend you can very well go with 1xRAM
[09:56] <johnybot> Sinderking: stuff = things i dont know about
[09:56] <sauvin> It doesn't matter how much RAM you have, though, if you're an idiot like me, you'll sooner or later overrun it.
[09:56] <NemesisD> excellent, helix player broke my package manager
[09:57] <babo> how do i restart the cups daemon again ?
[09:57] <TTilus> Sinderking: ...and i ment to say 'hibernate' not 'suspend' as i did
[09:57] <babo> /etc/rc.d/cups restart ?
[09:57] <MajorPayne> babo: That should do it.
[09:57] <Sinderking> ha ha ok
[09:57] <Lucifer_arma> sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart ?
[09:57] <Lucifer_arma> -?
[09:57] <MajorPayne> babo: You will need root, so sudo
[09:57] <Myrtti> cupsys
[09:57] <johnybot> i have a daemon in my cups :(
[09:57] <babo> MajorPayne: bash: /etc/rc.d/cups: No such file or directory
[09:58] <Blah__> hmm
[09:58] <Blah__> hello
[09:58] <NemesisD> ok so helix-player seems to have broken my "software index", how do i get it out of apt's queue so this will no longer be a problem?
[09:58] <MajorPayne> babo: when you start to type cups press tab, it will figure it out for you.
[09:58] <Sinderking> Major,johny,TTilus: ok here's the last question "Which one is better : A. x2 swap of RAM and the remaining is ext3 / B. all is swap / C. all is ext3"
[09:58] <johnybot> sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart
[09:58] <Blah__> is there a software like daemon tools for ubuntu?
[09:59] <babo> root@eire:/home/babo# /etc/rc.d/cups restart
[09:59] <babo> bash: /etc/rc.d/cups: No such file or directory
[09:59] <Navi_> Blah__, you can mount isos without a tool.
[09:59] <johnybot> Blah__: you can mount isos directly
[09:59] <babo> there's no /etc/rc.d directory
[09:59] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: All swap would be silly.  I suggest letting the install figure out what space to use for what unless you have a reason to tweak it.
[09:59] <johnybot> babo: /etc/init.d/cups restart
[09:59] <babo> ah thankss
[09:59] <adam> hi! how do i get 32bit libs for ubuntu to use with epsxe (http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1392699&postcount=84)
[09:59] <johnybot> google 1, CUPS 0
[09:59] <Sinderking> MajorPayne: is LiveCd can figure it for me? i didn't know before
[10:00] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: Yea, it can.  I can't remember the exact option.
[10:00] <intangir> what does it use to determine wether or not it adds a link to what yuo mounted in the desktop?
[10:00] <intangir> cause i dont want that damn link there..
[10:00] <MajorPayne> babo: Ohh, I'm sorry.  I didn't realise you typed rc.d.  Yea, the start/stop/restart scripts are in init.d on Debian based distros.
[10:00] <crackerbox> what is the best way to set an environment variable (say $VIDEO) that is the model of my video card in bash?
[10:00] <Blah__> but when i try to run exe files it says "No application suitable for automatic installation is available for handling this kind of file."
[10:00] <babo> k thanks
[10:01] <Blah__> got any ideas?
[10:01] <johnybot> Blah__: wine
[10:01] <Blah__> sorry im totally a newbie on this system, got it today :)
[10:01] <MajorPayne> Blah__: You can't run exe nativly in Ubuntu.  You must use something like wine.
[10:01] <Sinderking> Major: ok that's very fantastic i'll go reinstall the OS. thank you everyone
[10:01] <csc`> MajorPayne: theres something other than wine? please do tell.
[10:01] <MajorPayne> Blah__: Or even better, try an alternative for the program you are trying to use.
[10:01] <TTilus> Sinderking: A is ok, B is insane since it leaves you no disk space, C works but you can not hibernate and you could have trouble if you run out of ram
[10:01] <johnybot> Blah__: install 'wine' in synaptics
[10:02] <gimpy-afk> later
[10:02] <gimpy-afk> good night
[10:02] <TTilus> Sinderking: do you _know_ what swap is for?
[10:02] <Lucifer_bed> what I don't understand about this is that the boot sector isn't modified
[10:02] <Sinderking> i dont really know all of them
[10:02] <MajorPayne> csc`: There are others based on wine.
[10:02] <Sinderking> neither swap nor ext series
[10:02] <wingot> Hey guys
[10:02] <Navi_> I need help
[10:02] <johnybot> wingot: yoho
[10:02] <wingot> I just installed ubuntu, and it's not working~!
[10:02] <johnybot> navi shoot
[10:02] <Navi_> Why isn't my wireless card working?
[10:02] <Lucifer_bed> if the boot sector isn't modified, how can it boot?
[10:02] <Ax3> help! http://rafb.net/p/6I83EQ24.html <---- what is going on here!?
[10:03] <johnybot> wingot: more specific please
[10:03] <RedShift> wingot: did you try replacing your powersupply?
[10:03] <Lucifer_bed> anyway, here I go again
[10:03] <csc`> wingot: did you try formatting your harddrive?
[10:03] <Sinderking> TTilus: i dont really know all of em neither swap nor ext series
[10:03] <Navi_> csc`, yeah, I did.
[10:03] <wingot> jonybot It's showing awhole lot of lines, then comming up with one that says "Kernel Panic: ..."
[10:03] <Navi_> csc`, but it didn't work :(
[10:03] <MajorPayne> !doesn't work | wingot
[10:03] <ubotu> wingot: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[10:03] <crackerbox> is there a way to set an environment variable (say $VIDEO) that is the model of my video card in bash?
[10:04] <TTilus> Sinderking: the ext thing is a disk you put your stuff to, swap is reserved for os (you do not see it) to use as an extension to ram if it runs out of it
[10:04] <csc`> holy shi... wingot whats a kernel panic?!
[10:04] <johnybot> my kernel is a fighter pilot and never panics
[10:05] <Navi_> How come my wireless card doesn't work?
[10:05] <Sinderking> TTilus: well ext is a program and swap is somekind of RAM heh
[10:05] <TTilus> Sinderking: that rough description is not quite right but you can think of it like that
[10:05] <chiby> nc
[10:05] <johnybot> Navi_: probably because it isnt supported
[10:05] <TTilus> Sinderking: no, not a program, a filesystem type
[10:05] <Ax3> help! http://rafb.net/p/6I83EQ24.html <---- what is going on here!? how do I make the command 'pidgin' simply work ?
[10:05] <wingot> ubotu: It sits on the couch all day and drinks beer.  You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[10:06] <wingot> RedShift: New computer, powersupply is fine (if it has one)
[10:06] <Navi_> johnybot: Is it hard to write a driver?
[10:06] <turks`> johnybot: whats a kernel
[10:06] <TTilus> Sinderking: windows swap is a file on hd, linux mostly uses dedicated swap partition (but can do swap on file too)
[10:06] <wingot> turks`: burn the hard drive to a dvd?
[10:06] <MajorPayne> !linux | turks`
[10:06] <ubotu> turks`: Linux is the kernel (core) of the Ubuntu operating system. Many operating systems use Linux as kernel. For more information on Linux in general, visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux
[10:06] <turks`> wingot: set fire to that mofkr
[10:06] <johnybot> Navi_: hells yes
[10:07] <wingot> turks`: Oh, really burn it?
[10:07] <wingot> Increased heat makes it more Ubuntu receptive?
[10:07] <Sinderking> TTilus: i understand a bit now
[10:07] <weston> ok, does anyone know how to install the driver for the RaLink 2500/r61?
[10:07] <turks`> increased heat makes ubuntu burn
[10:07] <turks`> =D
[10:07] <johnybot> !misinformation
[10:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about misinformation - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:07] <pawan> hi
[10:07] <TTilus> Sinderking: if all ram is in use and a program asks more, then os can put some not-currently-running program to swap and that way free some ram to the running program asking more
[10:07] <hylje> !fud
[10:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fud - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:07] <wingot> turks`: But I want Ubuntu to run!
[10:07] <MajorPayne> !hi | pawan
[10:07] <ubotu> pawan: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[10:07] <johnybot> pawan: yoho

[10:08] <weston> Well, lspci is picking up the wireless card
[10:08] <weston> but when i try to connect my computer freezes
[10:08] <frySt> hoi
[10:08] <Sinderking> dang wheres my livecd
[10:09] <johnybot> Sinderking: check the cd tray :P
[10:09] <TTilus> Sinderking: swap provides os an opportunity to optimize ram usage
[10:09] <gimpy> !doesnt work | johnybot
[10:09] <ubotu> johnybot: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[10:09] <johnybot> i never said doesnt work
[10:09] <gimpy> just did
[10:09] <gimpy> lol
[10:09] <turks`> ubuntu wont install please help
[10:09] <johnybot> damn you gimpy!
[10:09] <Sinderking> well and it's in the tray !! thx
[10:10] <wingot> turks`: Hey, don't install it. It doesn't start
[10:10] <johnybot> SCORE!
[10:10] <wingot> It does some Kernel Panic thing
[10:10] <turks`> wingot: what should i install then
[10:10] <MajorPayne> turks`: You have to be a bit more discriptive.
[10:10] <gimpy> I'm on ubuntu so what did you do wrong?
[10:10] <johnybot> haha
[10:10] <RedShift> turks`: try putting the CD upside down in the CD-ROM drive
[10:10] <turks`> MajorPayne: it says "kernel panic: not syncing: Wizzo was here"
[10:10] <johnybot> virus!
[10:10] <wingot> turks`: I hear that debian is up to date. Lets try that one
[10:10] <Ax3> http://rafb.net/p/6I83EQ24.html - how do I make the command 'pidgin' simply work ?
[10:11] <johnybot> change the symlink
[10:11] <turks`> wingot: i hear archlinux is better, what about that one?
[10:11] <Lucifer_arma> ok, it didn't work at all
[10:11] <johnybot> or opensuse!
[10:11] <wingot> What's archlinux?
[10:11] <johnybot> freespire!
[10:11] <Lucifer_arma> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSPBootingClientsWithoutPxe?highlight=%28ltsp%29  <--- any idea how to make this work?
[10:11] <pawan> what is kubuntu desktop
[10:12] <johnybot> !kubuntu
[10:12] <ubotu> Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[10:12] <wingot> johnybot: You really aren't helping
[10:12] <pawan> how to install it
[10:12] <wingot> And isn't suse owned by Novell? The evil empire?
[10:12] <darkside_> allow
[10:12] <frySt> wingot  archlinux is a distro :>
[10:12] <Navi_> Freespire is the best.
[10:12] <johnybot> pawan exactly like ubuntu but with kubuntu disk
[10:12] <Lucifer_arma> Microsoft is the evil empire, Novell is more like a duchy
[10:12] <gimpy> Why is freespire the best
[10:12] <wingot> frySt: distro? distrobution? Like Ubuntu?
[10:13] <frySt> xactly
[10:13] <soulfetish> excuse me, does anyone know which debian version is feisty fawn based on? debian 1.3, 2.0, 2.1 or 2.1 ?
[10:13] <frySt> bit more advanced i think
[10:13] <wingot> Lucifer_arma: Sorry, my mistake
[10:13] <echosystm> my computer is frozen on "update-manager-core" :(
[10:13] <pawan> where to get that kubuntu disk
[10:13] <Navi_> Freespire is the best because it's the only distro that truely simulates the Windows experience
[10:13] <echosystm> 85% install
[10:13] <johnybot> echosystm: kill it
[10:13] <Navi_> and we all know that that experience is the best.
[10:13] <echosystm> its been like this for about 20 minutes
[10:13] <gimpy> lol @ Navi_
[10:13] <turks`> Navi_: oh boy!
[10:13] <echosystm> what will killing it do?
[10:13] <turks`> Navi_: dont i have to pay microsoft before i can use freespire?
[10:13] <echosystm> maybe its doing something
[10:13] <johnybot> kill... it...?
[10:13] <MajorPayne> Solarion_: Ubuntu is based of Debian Sid.  The unstable branch.  I don't think it has a number since it is ever changing.
[10:14] <frySt> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arch_Linux but next time, google yourself! :p
[10:14] <wingot> Navi_: But I don't want Windows
[10:14] <wingot> Windows kept crashing!
[10:14] <johnybot> !kill
[10:14] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[10:14] <Lucifer_arma> !google yourself
[10:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about google yourself - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:14] <pawan> what is kubuntu packages
[10:14] <frySt> !sidewinder
[10:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sidewinder - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:14] <bullgard4> What does the dmesg message "ACPI: Sleep Button (CM) [SLPB] " mean?
[10:14] <turks`> !kill *
[10:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kill * - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:14] <soulfetish> thanks
[10:14] <echosystm> haha lucky i didnt take your advice
[10:14] <echosystm> it just moved
[10:14] <johnybot> pawan:  go to kubuntu site and burn iso
[10:14] <echosystm> :P
[10:14] <echosystm> after 45 minutes
[10:14] <johnybot> echosystm: damn
[10:14] <echosystm> !
[10:14] <RedShift> hey I have windows vista, can I upgrade to ubuntu?
[10:14] <pld> whoops, didn't mean to default into Ubuntu
[10:14] <johnybot> echosystm: how much ram you have?
[10:15] <gimpy> lol, you should upgrade from vista to ubuntu
[10:15] <echosystm> 128mb
[10:15] <pld> RedShift: well, you can obliterate your entire Vista, yes :)
[10:15] <echosystm> its an old pc
[10:15] <gimpy> better tech support
[10:15] <turks`> is ubuntu free?
[10:15] <rodserling> Ubuntu freezes up on me when i enable the ati FGLRX driver after 10 minutes or so?
[10:15] <MajorPayne> pawan: If you are already using Ubuntu you can do a "sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop".
[10:15] <wingot> RedShift: But Windows Vista is better then Ubuntu
[10:15] <johnybot> turks`: free as in beer
[10:15] <pld> turks`: yes
[10:15] <turks`> johnybot: but beer costs money
[10:15] <wingot> At least it boots
[10:15] <RedShift> wingot: really? then I'll keep my windows vista
[10:15] <gimpy> lol ubuntu is way better than vista...vista is a joke
[10:15] <Lucifer_arma> pdl: you sure that was an accident?
[10:15] <frySt> nah more like free as in free speech
[10:15] <johnybot> turks`: but the knowledge of how to make beer is free
[10:15] <bruenig_> free as in beer doesn't really make sense, beer isn't free, that is an excellent point
[10:16] <johnybot> !beer
[10:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about beer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:16] <grizm> mayba free as in lunch?
[10:16] <Lucifer_arma> free as in beer makes sense to an alcoholic
[10:16] <wingot> johnybot: So free as in beer and free as in speech are the same thing?
[10:16] <frySt> the notion of free as in free beer is when u compare software such as skype to open source software
[10:16] <Sinderking>  well beer is delicious ^^"
[10:16] <pawan> my azuerus is not downloading anything
[10:16] <MajorPayne> wingot: No.
[10:16] <bruenig_> johnybot, no the free as in beer argument is distinct from knowing how to make it, that is free as in speech
[10:16] <pawan> even there are 3 seeds
[10:16] <jasperhax0r> any ppc users here
[10:16] <frySt> with free beer you cannot tell what u actually drink but u still drink it because its free
[10:17] <johnybot> i dont even drink beeer
[10:17] <wingot> frySt: I thought all beer was like that though. You don't know what you are drinking
[10:17] <gimpy> pc users?
[10:17] <gimpy> nope, none here
[10:17] <Lucifer_arma> ok, so failing that, has anybody used kdm with ltsp?
[10:17] <johnybot> i have a pc
[10:17] <rodserling> we're all pc users
[10:17] <Sinderking> it's good that you dont
[10:17] <jasperhax0r> Power PC also known as MAC
[10:17] <Lucifer_arma> *Mac, you mean
[10:17] <johnybot> my pc holds my legs off the ground
[10:17] <Sinderking> beer kills your health
[10:17] <gimpy> eww he said the M word
[10:17] <MajorPayne> jasperhax0r: But there is PPC and Intel Macs.
[10:17] <frySt> good old reinheitsgebot :)
[10:17] <Lucifer_arma> Mac is not an acronym, so you only capitalize the first letter, if any
[10:17] <bruenig_> MAC is an address
[10:18] <johnybot> Macintosh!
[10:18] <jasperhax0r> true but i seam to be the only PPC Xubuntu user
[10:18] <gimpy> haha at bruenig
[10:18] <johnybot> !apple
[10:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about apple - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:18] <frySt> !joystick
[10:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about joystick - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:18] <Lucifer_arma> !macintrash
[10:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about macintrash - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:18] <jasperhax0r> and im having problems finding drivers
[10:18] <johnybot> !how stupid i am
[10:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about how stupid i am - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:18] <MajorPayne> jasperhax0r: I run Ubuntu on my MacBook.  But that's not the same.
[10:18] <gimpy> !bill gates
[10:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bill gates - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:18] <frySt> i am desperately tring to get that old MS sidewinder freestyle pro gamepad of mine to work
[10:18] <gimpy> hehe
[10:18] <Sinderking> can i restore the windows backup file using linux
[10:18] <frySt> tried all possible how-to's still wont work
[10:18] <grizm> !women
[10:18] <ubotu> The women and men of the Ubuntu women project hang out in #ubuntu-women. Encouraging women to use linux? Read http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Encourage-Women-Linux-HOWTO/ for some suggestions compiled by women who use Linux on how to do so effectively.
[10:18] <Sinderking> i mean using ubuntu
[10:18] <rodserling> so, does anyone have a clue as to why my computer freezes up after i enable ati fglrx driver?
[10:19] <rodserling> after 10minutes or so
[10:19] <pawan> azureus not downloading
[10:19] <gimpy> its because ati isnt supported much..other than that I have no clue
[10:19] <jasperhax0r> i got an old i book that im trying to find workable drivers for a USB wireless card, the only problem is there is no NDISWRAPPER for the power pc platform only x86
[10:19] <johnybot> pawan: there are plenty of alternates
[10:19] <gimpy> I suggest get a nvidia card
[10:19] <rodserling> serious?
[10:20] <gimpy> and ebay your ati card
[10:20] <pawan> but i want to use azureus
[10:20] <Catoptromancy> What could cause fstab to keep breaking CD mount point?
[10:20] <johnybot> pawan: awwww muffin
[10:20] <wingot> netdaemon: Heineken is terrible
[10:20] <Catoptromancy> I have to fix it like every 20 minutes
[10:20] <rodserling> i like my x800
[10:20] <wingot> So anyone know how I can solve this kernel panic thing?
[10:20] <pawan> what
[10:20] <frySt> jasperhax0r  there are good chances you dont even need ndiswrapper
[10:21] <weston> for some reason my wireless driver failed to compile
[10:21] <johnybot> wingot: valium?
[10:21] <wingot> I had to boot back into Vista to get onto mIRC
[10:21] <gimpy> umm redo the install?
[10:21] <johnybot> peace!
[10:21] <wingot> johnybot: That would only be a temporary solution
[10:21] <jasperhax0r> well there was only windows drivers made for this device, and ndis wrapper is what i used on my archlinx pc server
[10:21] <bruenig_> redo the install is hardly a solution
[10:21] <Lucifer_arma> wingot: did you change the motherboard or something?
[10:21] <magnetron> !offtopic
[10:21] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[10:21] <pintados_16> how do i download files using this?
[10:21] <Lucifer_arma> wingot: rather, what did you change that made the kernel get confused?
[10:21] <wingot> Lucifer_arma: It's a new computer, so yes
[10:22] <rodserling> My microwave is smoking? Rebuild the house.
[10:22] <Lucifer_arma> wingot: and it's an old ubuntu isntallation?
[10:22] <wingot> I only just installed Ubuntu
[10:22] <jasperhax0r> i might be able to find a alternative driver but i dont know what the device is based off
[10:22] <pintados_16> how do i download files using this XChat?
[10:22] <jasperhax0r> its a 2wire usb wireless adapter
[10:22] <Lucifer_arma> wingot: so there wasn't a ubuntu installation on that hard drive before?
[10:22] <Lucifer_arma> like for a different hardware configuration?
[10:23] <wingot> Lucifer_arma: There was a Windows Vista, install, and I can still boot into that. Would that make a difference?
[10:23] <DeaD_RaVeN> hi all
[10:23] <Mineralwasser> hi
[10:23] <Sinderking> DeaD_RaVeN: Hi dead, cool name
[10:23] <Lucifer_arma> wingot: shouldn't.  ONly time I've ever gotten a kernel panic (besides on custom kernels) is when I changed hardware out from under an existing kernel
[10:23] <Lucifer_arma> so if you didn't do that, I've got no idea
[10:23] <wingot> Lucifer_arma: What is a kernel panic?
[10:23] <pintados_16> how do i download files using this XChat?
[10:23] <pintados_16> how do i download files using this XChat?
[10:23] <pintados_16> how do i download files using this XChat?
[10:23] <pintados_16> how do i download files using this XChat?
[10:24] <wingot> pintados_16: Spammer
[10:24] <Lucifer_arma> man, that's really annoying
[10:24] <DeaD_RaVeN> =[::Sinderking::] => Hi! sanks
[10:24] <gimpy> no kidding
[10:24] <frySt> jasperhax0r  tell me your device name and i look it up for you
[10:24] <frySt> and i'll tell u if there are ways without ndiswrapper
[10:24] <Lucifer_arma> wingot: it's a critical failure in the kernel.  Kernel can't continue for some reason, so it panics and tells you why
[10:24] <jasperhax0r> what linux detects it as or the name on the device
[10:25] <wingot> Lucifer_arma: Ok. I'll try reinstalling as someone suggested then
[10:25] <frySt> i think i could use both
[10:25] <frySt> :)
[10:25] <jasperhax0r> since on the device it is called, 2Wire 802.11g USB Wirless Adapter
[10:25] <Lucifer_arma> wingot: when you change the hardware out from under it for some reason, reinstalling forces a reconfiguration of the installed kernel, which fixes it
[10:25] <Lucifer_arma> oh damn, he left
[10:26] <Sinderking> .
[10:26] <gimpy> he'll be back, dont worry
[10:26] <tmatix> probably not
[10:26] <weston> alright, im lost on this, before I started ral was my wireless card that was not working, after i installed the driver it fails to show up
[10:26] <jan> can someone tell me the packages name with the build tools ?
[10:26] <Lucifer_arma> build-tools ?

[10:26] <Sinderking> hey dead reaven how long did you use your livecd
[10:26] <jasperhax0r> the device id in linux is 1630:0005
[10:27] <Stormx2> !paste | weston
[10:27] <ubotu> weston: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:27] <jan> thx rodserling
[10:27] <rodserling> yep
[10:27] <weston> any help?
[10:28] <bcbooter> can someone explain how to install a tar.bz2 file?
[10:29] <nox-Hand> Anyone got some links or names of some awesome Linux projects one can look into when bored? If something that has gui, even better - beta guis ftw :D
[10:29] <grizm> weston, did you try "sudo ifconfig ra0 up"?
[10:29] <weston> lets try
[10:30] <Sinderking> I have to go now everyone bye and c ya all , great helpers
[10:30] <gimpy> Laters
[10:30] <rodserling> cya
[10:31] <weston> well, that brought it back.....but when I try to connect to wireless point, my computer freezes
[10:32] <grizm> weston, I don't know, did you read /var/log/syslog?
[10:32] <jasperhax0r> i got some more information ,the device has a netchip net2280 chip on it and the board has ZCOM XG701b also on it
[10:33] <pawan> hi
[10:34] <pawan> i dont want to see all the hard disk on desktop
[10:34] <Stormx2> pawan: gconf-editor. There is a setting to turn it off
[10:34] <pawan> how
[10:34] <gimpy> whats a good disk defrag for fiesty?
[10:35] <Stormx2> !defrag | Stormx2
[10:35] <Stormx2> UHG
[10:35] <Stormx2> !defrag | gimpy
[10:35] <ubotu> gimpy: defragmentation is not needed for Ext3 and ReiserFS filesystems. They are much more efficient in their allocation of storage units.
[10:35] <frySt> hm
[10:35] <gimpy> hmm cool
[10:35] <frySt> jasperhax0r  as it seems there is no way around ndiswrapper
[10:35] <gimpy> I <3 linux

[10:37] <jasperhax0r> im checking on another card with same chips
[10:38] <frySt> irssi, weechat for console
[10:38] <tmatix> pawan: hdparm
[10:38] <weston> does anyone have Avant-window-navigator installed?
[10:38] <Stormx2> khelll: LAN or WAN?
[10:38] <ranfow> join #java
[10:38] <Stormx2> tmatix: he means the desktop icons.
[10:38] <khelll> wan
[10:38] <boris_> currently im running dapper and i have iso file of ubuntu feisty is it possible to upgrade to it without losing my data ?
[10:38] <Stormx2> khelll: www.whatismyip.com
[10:38] <rodserling> weston, i did. it was too glitchy for me
[10:38] <gimpy> he meant lan
[10:38] <Calymos> Yo, anybody know if a trendnet TEW-424UB 802.11g Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter has drivers yet?
[10:38] <gimpy> not wan
[10:38] <pawan> what hdparm
[10:38] <khelll> wan
[10:39] <khelll> ok and for the lan
[10:39] <Stormx2> ifconfig then
[10:39] <gimpy> thats for windows stormx2
[10:39] <Stormx2> pawan: What language do you normally speak?
[10:39] <gimpy> for nix
[10:39] <Stormx2> gimpy: No, ipconfig is for windows.
[10:39] <gimpy> Thats what I said
[10:40] <Akifemre> heya... how can i change default opener program for .php files?
[10:40] <gimpy> hes looking for nix command I believe
[10:40] <khelll> ipconfig : command not found
[10:40] <pawan> english
[10:40] <gabbarinho> hello
[10:40] <Stormx2> gimpy: It's also what I said, if you'd give me the courtousy of reading what I put.
[10:40] <rodserling> haha
[10:40] <grizm> khell, open console and type "ifconfig | grep "inet addr"
[10:40] <gabbarinho> ubuncu can *read* NTFS, right?
[10:40] <Stormx2> gabbarinho: And write, with an extra driver.
[10:41] <gabbarinho> ah
[10:41] <tmatix> pawan: you can use hdparm to actually turn off a physical hard disk, not what you want apparently
[10:41] <Stormx2> !ntfs-3g | gabbarinho
[10:41] <gabbarinho> I was wondering if I was going to need a large "shared" fat32 partition for my media files :)
[10:41] <ubotu> gabbarinho: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[10:41] <Stormx2> gabbarinho: I use a large shared ext3 partition for my media.
[10:41] <bullgard4> What does the dmesg message "ACPI: Sleep Button (CM) [SLPB] " mean?
[10:41] <gabbarinho> windows can write to ext3?
[10:41] <gabbarinho> i didn't think xp even recognized it!
[10:42] <Stormx2> gabbarinho: Extra driver required, but it's a non-issue.
[10:42] <gabbarinho> well, that's great
[10:42] <Stormx2> gabbarinho: Steer clear of FAT32. Use either NTFS or ext3
[10:42] <gabbarinho> any advantages to using ext3 as the shared partition rather than ntfs?
[10:42] <Stormx2> I tend to use ext3 purely because I know it's open.
[10:42] <gabbarinho> because of the size limit, right?
[10:43] <Stormx2> gabbarinho: NTFS doesn't have a size limit.
[10:43] <Stormx2> Not a problematic one tho.
[10:43] <pawan> but i just dont want to display it on desktop
[10:43] <frySt> ntfs is one of the worst filesystems ever created and noone should use it :>
[10:43] <gimpy> ntfs is better that fat32
[10:43] <Stormx2> frySt: It's actually a bunch better than fat32.
[10:44] <Stormx2> pawan: Alt + F2. Type gconf-editor, there is an option in there to turn the icons off.
[10:44] <tmatix> gimpy: yeah, but what isn't? :)
[10:44] <frySt> :>
[10:44] <novato_br> how can I know if my ram is work in dual channel mode ?
[10:44] <Stormx2> gabbarinho: Two things to consider: a) NTFS puts stricter limits on characters in file names. b) ext3 is an open standard, so its a billion times easier to implement correctly.
[10:45] <Akifemre> heya... how can i change default application to open for .php files?
[10:45] <novato_br> how can I know if my ram is working in dual channel mode ?
[10:45] <Stormx2> !default | Akifemre
[10:45] <ubotu> Akifemre: To change the default application for a filetype in Nautilus, right-click on a file, select Properties -> Open With, and then change the setting. In Kubuntu, Konqueror -> Settings -> Configure and then hit "File Associations"
[10:45] <Stormx2> novato_br: We saw your question the first time.
[10:46] <gabbarinho> thanks for that advice, storm :)
[10:46] <tmatix> novato_br: your motherboard BIOS should tell you
[10:46] <weston> qqqwwwasasd.lknoijndwdLiunar
[10:46] <novato_br> sorry, Stormx2
[10:46] <pawan> where is the option
[10:46] <Calymos> In case I was ignored, I figured it out. So... Thanks for existing, in case I couldn't. I'll probably ask more later.
[10:46] <novato_br> i posted on wrong channel, the 2 question
[10:46] <Stormx2> pawan: Search for it yourself.
[10:47] <novato_br> tmatix, where?
[10:47] <novato_br> tmatix, where should MB bios tell me?
[10:47] <Stormx2> pawan: apps > nautilus > desktop. Uncheck "volumes_visible"
[10:48] <tmatix> novato_br: the BIOS is built into your computer's hardware.  you can usually access it by pressing delete or F1 or something when the computer boots
[10:48] <jusefina> anyone here use deluge??
[10:48] <gimpy> Later stormx2 learned alot from ya. I'll be back in about 8hrs. Take care all.
[10:48] <frySt> is there a way to get my gamepad working? its a ms sidewinder freestyle pro, unfortunately i lost the usb adapterpiece, so its gameport only.. my gameport is on soundblaster live
[10:48] <Stormx2> jusefina: #deluge might :)
[10:48] <Stormx2> gimpy: Byebye
[10:48] <jusefina> Stormx2: on freenode?
[10:48] <pawan> great
[10:48] <pawan> thanks
[10:48] <Stormx2> jusefina: Yeah.
[10:49] <tmatix> novato_br: i would probably restart the computer and just start mashing del and f1 :)
[10:49] <Taggard> !osx
[10:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about osx - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:49] <Taggard> Does anyone know a good OS X dual boot tutorial?
[10:49] <Stormx2> frySt: Might be worth running a search on www.ubuntuforums.org
[10:49] <Stormx2> !bootcamp
[10:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bootcamp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:50] <frySt> Stormx2  thats what i did 2hrs ago :(
[10:50] <Stormx2> Hmm.
[10:50] <WankusMusculus> hey guys, how do I turn off system beeps in xubuntu, it's very annoying!!
[10:50] <Stormx2> frySt: Aww sucks. I can't help, tho
[10:50] <frySt> seem to be fool proof howtos, and ppl repy and say 'worked for me' but not in my case :*(
[10:50] <frySt> thank u anyways ^^
[10:50] <Stormx2> frySt: Well, what issue are you having?
[10:50] <Stormx2> frySt: (with the guides)
[10:50] <novato_br> thx, tmatix
[10:51] <weston> does anyone know where to download wirelessassistant?
[10:51] <jamesdell> hi, I got this error after compiling my wifi card. http://pastebin.com/d232bf87d anyone howto get solve on this issue?
[10:51] <pawan> hi
[10:51] <frySt> they do not work for me.. there are no /dev/js or /dev/input/js nodes created
[10:51] <pawan> any new background for ubuntu
[10:51] <frySt> i even created some myself with mknode but still wont workl
[10:52] <frySt> and neither jscalibrate nor jstest nor the kcontrol recognise my gamepad
[10:52] <Stormx2> frySt: Hmm. Sounds like it's being put in a different place. Hold on
[10:52] <frySt> and that although i got all neccesary modules loaded
[10:52] <jamesdell> hi, I got this error after compiling my wifi card. http://pastebin.com/d232bf87d anyone howto get solve on this issue?
[10:52] <frySt> i also searched my whole /dev/ which took quite a qhile there was nothing useful in there
[10:52] <frySt> :(
[10:52] <Taggard> Anyone know how to install ubuntu on my imac?
[10:52] <Stormx2> !install | Taggard
[10:52] <ubotu> Taggard: 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 - See also !automate
[10:52] <pawan> any new screen saver for ubuntu
[10:53] <grizm> wankus, open the file /etc/inputrc and add the following; set bell-style none
[10:53] <gabbarinho> any chance that the upcoming ubuntu will feature a more robust boot manager?
[10:53] <Frogzoo> !imac
[10:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about imac - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:53] <Frogzoo> !mac
[10:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mac - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:53] <Taggard> Stormx2: Helpful apart from it doesn't mention anything about using an intel imac for an install
[10:53] <gimpii> hey stormx2 you use gmail through gabber?
[10:53] <frySt> whats wrong with GRUB?
[10:53] <gabbarinho> the popular xp/vista/ubuntu boot is a little tricky to do currently
[10:53] <WankusMusculus> thanks grizm!!
[10:54] <rodserling> yeah, GRUB is cool
[10:54] <gabbarinho> well, right now you have to go through two boot screens if you want to run vista
[10:54] <Stormx2> gimpii, not usually, but I have an account
[10:54] <gabbarinho> grub first, then the windows boot manager
[10:54] <Stormx2> Taggard, I don't think there it matters if it's an iMac? o.O
[10:54] <Taggard> Stormx2: It really does
[10:54] <Stormx2> Oh? Why so?
[10:54] <Taggard> Stormx2: Ubuntu doesn't like EFI
[10:55] <gimpii> Stormx2 what network do you use mostly?
[10:55] <Ademan> !envy
[10:55] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[10:55] <Taggard> And its really hard to get OS X to resize a partition without it destroying the whole disk
[10:55] <Stormx2> frySt: Unplug your JS, then: ls /dev > /tmp/before. Now plug it in, and run ls /dev > /tmp/after && diff /tmp/before /tmp/after
[10:55] <Stormx2> gimpii: MSN and IRC.
[10:55] <frySt> hax!
[10:55] <pawan> what is kubuntu
[10:56] <Stormx2> !kubuntu | pawan
[10:56] <ubotu> pawan: Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[10:56] <Taggard> Why is poor Stormx2 pretty much manning the whole channel?
[10:56] <pawan> what is the difference between the two
[10:56] <Stormx2> Haha
[10:56] <Stormx2> I usually end up doing this ;-)
[10:56] <Taggard> pawan: One uses KDE, one uses GNOME.
[10:56] <Taggard> Its really a matter of opinion which is better..
[10:56] <pawan> i am using ubuntu
[10:56] <gimpii> well you can hit me up on MSN stormx2<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[10:56] <Taggard> pawan: You are on GNOME
[10:57] <novato_br> tmatix, plz, help me a little
[10:57] <gimpii> I kick gnomes in WoW
[10:57] <Taggard> pawan: You can have both if you like, but if your happy with Gnome theres no reason
[10:57] <pawan> now i am also installing kubuntu
[10:57] <novato_br> tmatix, it is a screen about cpuz: http://www.cjb.net/images.html?73079.png
[10:57] <gabbarinho> by the way
[10:57] <Taggard> pawan: why?
[10:57] <gabbarinho> I have a very new motherboard based on the nvidia 7050 chipset
[10:57] <pawan> might be some difference
[10:57] <gabbarinho> linux drivers are available but they're not included on the current live CD
[10:57] <avis> pawan you can install both by sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[10:58] <frySt> Stormx2  i havent tried yet, but i spose it wont work because of GAMEPORT.. not usb so there is no plug&play
[10:58] <gabbarinho> as a result, i can't seem to run the installation utility with a graphical interface
[10:58] <pawan> then there will bw two os or what
[10:58] <Taggard> pawan: Yes, you don't need to install kubuntu to use KDE.
[10:58] <avis> there will be two desktop environments pawan
[10:58] <Stormx2> frySt: It's purely seeing if ubuntu actually recognises that there is a joystick there.
[10:58] <Taggard> You can use both Gnome and KDE At the same time, if you wish
[10:58] <tmatix> novato_br: i don't know any linux equivalent of cpu-z, although there may be one.
[10:58] <avis> pawan you'd switch between the two in your login manager
[10:59] <pawan> cant both be used simultaneously
[10:59] <Ademan> gabbarinho: i suppose it might be worth getting the alternate install, i wouldn't have expected a motherboard compatibility issue to allow you to even boot though
[10:59] <Taggard> Yes, well not at the exact same time, but yes
[10:59] <frySt> Stormx2  it is not
[10:59] <Ademan> gabbarinho: so it boots with the liveCD? but xorg fails?
[10:59] <Taggard> avis: Hes install kubuntu and ubuntu, on a different partition I think
[10:59] <rodserling> hmm?
[10:59] <pawan> should i install it or not
[10:59] <Stormx2> frySt: The command returns nothing?
[10:59] <novato_br> tmatix, no, see the screenshot http://www.cjb.net/images.html?73079.png, on this screenshot have my info about ram / processor
[10:59] <gabbarinho> well i think the motherboard itself is supported - it's the integrated video that isn't
[11:00] <frySt> i.e. there is no diff btwn the two files
[11:00] <Ademan> pawan: instead, within your ubuntu partition you can just use synaptic to install kubuntu-desktop, which will let you have both on the same partition
[11:00] <avis> pawan well no need to install on another partition when you can swtich between gnome and KDE from the login manager
[11:00] <gabbarinho> "x" won't load
[11:00] <frySt> if it would create a node in /dev/ i had found it 2hrs ago :)
[11:00] <gabbarinho> the new nvidia drivers do support it, however
[11:00] <Ademan> gabbarinho: are you at that point right now? because i can get you past it
[11:00] <pawan> i used this command  sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[11:00] <gabbarinho> it just isn't included in feisty dawn, since it only came out a few weeks ago
[11:00] <Ademan> pawan: that should work fine
[11:00] <Stormx2> frySt: Well, looks like its unsupported at a kernel-level then :(
[11:00] <pawan> it is downloading
[11:01] <gabbarinho> not at the moment, ademan - i believe it asked me if i wanted to go into the console and tackle it
[11:01] <frySt> Stormx2  i got the proper kernel modules loaded... sidewinder gameport and emu10k-gp
[11:01] <pawan> but what will be the use of that
[11:01] <gabbarinho> but i am not that advanced a user, unfortunately
[11:01] <Stormx2> pawan: You should be using this: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[11:01] <avelino> alguien habla espaol
[11:01] <avis> if you cannot get X to load then i have used envy with great success basically downloads the latest nvidia driver from nvidia and recompiles your kernel for you
[11:01] <tmatix> novato_br: okay, well it looks nice enough, but it doesn't tell you anything about dual channel ram
[11:01] <frySt> still wont work thats really annoying :((
[11:01] <Ademan> gabbarinho: yeah, it SHOULD actually be fairly easy, i can walk you through it if you'd like
[11:01] <Stormx2> !es | avelino
[11:01] <ubotu> avelino: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[11:01] <avis> avelino, si,  #ubuntu-es
[11:01] <Ademan> !envy | avis
[11:01] <pawan> should i cancel this command then
[11:01] <gabbarinho> oh, that's great :)
[11:01] <ubotu> avis: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[11:02] <avis> i know what envy is i use it
[11:02] <avelino> avis
[11:02] <avelino> tu sabrias como liberar un movil por internet
[11:02] <Stormx2> avis; Well, you shouldn't.
[11:02] <avis> quieren que se va a #ubuntu-es
[11:02] <gabbarinho> how would that work?
[11:02] <avis> Stormx2, you advise not using envy ?
[11:02] <Ademan> gabbarinho: how would what work?
[11:02] <avelino> alguien sabe alguna pagina o programa para liberar moviles???
[11:02] <gabbarinho> this envy thing :)
[11:03] <Ademan> !envy | gabbarinho
[11:03] <ubotu> gabbarinho: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[11:03] <gabbarinho> it's already on the CD?
[11:03] <Stormx2> avis: Indeed. You should use the restricted drivers manager.
[11:03] <gabbarinho> I understand I can use it to load the nvidia drivers
[11:03] <Stormx2> gabbarinho: System > Administration > Restricted Drivers
[11:03] <Ademan> yes but it can break your system, i had to totally reinstall because of envy
[11:03] <Stormx2> gabbarinho: use that instead.
[11:03] <avis> ok Stormx2 i didn't know i'd get equal graphics support from the restricted drivers manager
[11:04] <gabbarinho> ah - well, it can't break my system since ubuntu isn't installed
[11:04] <avis> i think perhaps gabbarinho can't boot into X
[11:04] <Ademan> gabbarinho: i can walk you through starting X if you want
[11:04] <gabbarinho> yes :)
[11:04] <avelino> hola
[11:04] <avelino> hola
[11:04] <gabbarinho> thanks for the offer, ademan
[11:04] <avelino> alguien habla espaol
[11:05] <Ademan> yeah no problem
[11:05] <gabbarinho> that would be great, but i don't think i have the time to go through the installation before i go to work
[11:05] <Ademan> gabbarinho: want me to write instructions out real fast?
[11:05] <gabbarinho> sure, i would appreciate it :)
[11:06] <frySt> like edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf properly and do startx?
[11:07] <avis> what is a good sound card, that is better than 965G's chipsets onboard sound and supported under feisty ?
[11:09] <frySt> avis  i prefer terratec, but they can be expensive
[11:09] <Ademan> gabbarinho: http://rafb.net/p/YJBiZe69.html   you may want to write it down since it will probably be gone in a couple hours
[11:09] <frySt> atm i use an old creative sblive! player 1024
[11:09] <bcbooter> how do i mount an iso and install it without burning it???
[11:09] <avis> frySt, i'm rather happy just to get an answer really.  going to froogle how expensive they are
[11:09] <frySt> but still struggle to get my gamepad working :(
[11:09] <Stormx2> !iso | bcbooter
[11:09] <ubotu> bcbooter: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[11:10] <frySt> basically every non-onboard soundcard does the job if you dont need special sound-studio capacities xD
[11:10] <gabbarinho> fantastic stuff, ademan :)
[11:10] <gabbarinho> what is that site?
[11:11] <avis> frySt, do you think a common Audigy 2 value would be superior to the sound on a 965G ?
[11:11] <avelino> alguien sabe alguna pagina para liberar mobiles
[11:11] <Ademan> gabbarinho: just a site where you can paste text, that way you don't write a bunch of crap in the channel, it's usually used for code, but it works equally well for what i just did
[11:11] <gabbarinho> looks useful
[11:11] <frySt> id say so, everything > onboard
[11:11] <gabbarinho> i've often wanted to do things like that
[11:11] <bcbooter> what do i type in the mountpoint?
[11:11] <gabbarinho> write a message, make it available quickly and easily
[11:12] <avis> thats amazing i happen to have one from the days of old i had been searching for better audio.  going to put it in and see about getting around working.  thank you
[11:12] <Ademan> yeah
[11:12] <gabbarinho> well, thanks again - this looks simple enough
[11:12] <asdf> any one willing to help me out?
[11:12] <Frogzoo> asdf: we don't know
[11:12] <asdf> a little linux question?
[11:12] <frySt> asdf , that really depends if your going to ask your question :)
[11:13] <Ademan> good luck gabbarinho
[11:13] <asdf> i will
[11:13] <Frogzoo> asdf: you can skip the prelims & just ask your question
[11:13] <Ademan> !ask | asdf
[11:13] <ubotu> asdf: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:13] <asdf> when i switch my Resolution on my xubuntu i get a distorted top left corner
[11:13] <gabbarinho> well, gotta go now
[11:14] <gabbarinho> thanks again!
[11:14] <Frogzoo> asdf: you're overdriving your monitor - specify HorizSync & VertRefresh in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:14] <asdf> then even if i switch it back to default it is like a little distorted icon in the top left corner vertical strips
[11:15] <bcbooter> is ubuntu studio pretty good???
[11:15] <asdf> let me check that, Thanks, one sec
[11:16] <weston> what is a good desktop effects program?
[11:16] <weston> =stable
[11:16] <ari_stress> weston: compiz fusion
[11:16] <linxeh> bcbooter: a guy at work thinks so - I've got the packages installed on my ubuntu box, but haven't really played with it as my sound card will never be supported by linux
[11:16] <ari_stress> weston: see on youtube.com, search for 'compiz fusion'
[11:16] <weston> kk
[11:18] <riaal> if I use lsmod to show mods, how can I get more info about a specific module? Like nfs for example?
[11:18] <Taggard> Does anyone know a good Ubuntu on iMac tutorial?
[11:18] <intothevoid> Hi
[11:18] <intothevoid> anyone around ?
[11:18] <Taggard> intothevoid: No
[11:18] <harbingerkun> I have a folder with a vast number of files that need to be deleted. How do I remove them without spending hours upon hours of doing it manually? "rm" returns "bash: /bin/mv: Argument list too long"
[11:18] <riaal> intothevoid, nope
[11:18] <Taggard> Just a few hundred or so
[11:19] <intothevoid> yeah very fuuny stupid question
[11:19] <harbingerkun> I can't delete the folder that contains them itself as it is a system folder
[11:19] <Taggard> !ask
[11:19] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:19] <intothevoid> i am running compiz fusion and i need to know how can be set to invoke every time i login
[11:19] <intothevoid> i have to manually type in compiz --replace for the window manager to kick in
[11:19] <Frogzoo> riaal: the correct answer to your question is 'man bootparam' but I think you'd also want to try 'man -k nfs'
[11:19] <frySt> harbingerkun  tried rm -Rf?
[11:20] <Taggard> intothevoid: Could add that as a startup command
[11:20] <harbingerkun> frySt: Yes. Same issue.
[11:20] <intothevoid> hmn
[11:20] <Lord_Illidan> Hiya guys and gals
[11:20] <harbingerkun> Far too many files.
[11:20] <intothevoid> i thought maybe there is some way i can add it to the windows manager
[11:20] <frySt> :(
[11:20] <bcbooter> is there like a fruity loops type deal for linux???
[11:20] <Taggard> Lord_Illidan: Girls?
[11:21] <harbingerkun> frySt: Indeed. Nautilus freezes. So that's not a possibility either.
[11:21] <frySt> bcbooter  u could try ardour or the dynebolic live cd
[11:21] <Sinderking> heyall
[11:21] <bcbooter> ardour tells me Jack isnt running wut is jack?
[11:21] <Sinderking>  04.
[11:21] <Frogzoo> !info jack

[11:22] <asdf> Frogzoo: hey i have xorg.config up
[11:22] <intothevoid> is there a cmd i can use to add compiz --replace to the start up ?
[11:22] <asdf> what am i looking for?
[11:22] <tupa> intothevoid, depends on your DE
[11:22] <Frogzoo> asdf: google my previous answer
[11:22] <NGG> ola
[11:23] <intothevoid> DE?
[11:23] <asdf> Frogzoo: this one ? asdf: you're overdriving your monitor - specify HorizSync & VertRefresh in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:23] <tupa> intothevoid: Desktop Environment
[11:23] <intothevoid> it boots into gnome sort of
[11:24] <intothevoid> then i go to the terminal and launch compiz fusion
[11:24] <tupa> intothevoid: gnome-session
[11:24] <khelll> is there any visiual tool for svn

[11:27] <jqg> How to defend DDOS attack? Help me!!!
[11:27] <frySt> riaal  modprobe -l
[11:27] <frySt> and modinfo
[11:27] <Happu> jqg: install firestarter and put it to block ping for a moment

[11:27] <guerrera20> holaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[11:28] <riaal> frySt, say I want to display info about the module nfs, what would the command look like? :S

[11:30] <bullgard4> What does the dmesg message "ACPI: Sleep Button (CM) [SLPB] " mean?
[11:30] <ultrazauberer> can anyone help me? i'm looking for a tool like php designer 2007 for linux
[11:31] <ultrazauberer> i doesn't find anything on google
[11:31] <tupa> ultrazauberer is it a WYSYWIG editor?
[11:31] <frySt> o_O
[11:31] <frySt> why keep ppl ignoring my help and ask again? :>
[11:31] <Happu> ultrazauberer: what does php designer do?
[11:31] <ultrazauberer> wtf ist a WYSYWIG editor?
[11:31] <jqg> Happu, it is same like shorewall? How to define the rule against DDOS???
[11:31] <frySt> what you see is what u get
[11:31] <ultrazauberer> php designer is a developer tool for php sources
[11:31] <Happu> jqg: it's an GUI for iptables
[11:32] <ultrazauberer> with auto-fill function for php commands
[11:32] <Happu> jqg: you can block pings and stuff from settings, you don't have to make a rule for it
[11:32] <ultrazauberer> i mean it completes commands while typing
[11:33] <ultrazauberer> but i just find it for win xp, but i wan't to use more linux for working
[11:33] <jqg> Happu, my server is ubuntu server no gui support and shorewall installed but I could't use it.
[11:33] <jqg> Happu, and I can ping my server well
[11:33] <tupa> ultrazauberer, mmm, don't remember if it supports command completion, but quanta is very nice
[11:33] <ab3l>  hi there's a tool to edit a squashfs file without mounting it ?
[11:33] <ultrazauberer> at work i use xampp and php designer 2007, but all under win xp
[11:34] <ultrazauberer> now i want to use an equal tool under ubuntu
[11:34] <Happu> jqg: then you have to look for iptables manual
[11:34] <jqg> Happu, but my apache server connection are exhausts by attack
[11:34] <Happu> jqg: but if you are running and server, you shouldn't block ping. (or is it in private use?)
[11:34] <dimebar> ultrazauberer: bluefish? quanta?
[11:35] <ultrazauberer> dimebar, tupa i will see it
[11:35] <LeoUA> hi2all
[11:35] <jqg> Happu ,a ruuning server shouldn't block ping?
[11:35] <ultrazauberer> now searching for these tools on google
[11:35] <ultrazauberer> thx
[11:35] <LeoUA> Guys, where GAIM sounds ate?
[11:35] <LeoUA> are
[11:35] <fdr> hi! I have my MBR (master boot record) overwritten -- is there a HOWTO that explains how to restore it?
[11:35] <sahil> i'm trying to convince a school to switch to linux their biggest argument is that the rest of the marketplace uses ms products how do you guys think i can deal with tis?
[11:35] <dimebar> ultrazauberer: also may wanna try the PHP plugin for eclipse.  Personally I use vim :)
[11:36] <fdr> !mbr
[11:36] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[11:36] <dimebar> sahil: set up a test machine with edubuntu, show them what it does, let the kids try it out
[11:36] <Happu> !iptables | jqg
[11:36] <ubotu> jqg: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[11:36] <jqg> Happu,I found random IP connect in my apache log
[11:37] <jqg> Happu ,ok ,thanks a lot
[11:37] <Happu> jqg so you are getting DoS from one IP only?
[11:37] <sahil> dimebar: yes thats my first step
[11:37] <Happu> jqg: http://www.linuxguruz.com/iptables/howto/iptables-HOWTO-6.html
[11:37] <dimebar> sahil: my mum's classroom has 1 xp machine (supported) and 3 ubuntu machines and a suse machine - the kids all use the linux one cos it has more games :)
[11:37] <jqg> Happu ,random IP connections
[11:37] <ultrazauberer> quanta is for kde, can i use it under gnome?
[11:37] <frySt> i like geany
[11:38] <dimebar> ultrazauberer: yes.  it won't look 'native' but it will run fine.
[11:38] <Happu> jqg you should mark up to some file what commands did you run for IPtables so you can undo them later
[11:38] <ultrazauberer> thx
[11:38] <alecwh> My laptop doesn't have a "Shut Down" option when I click the button on the top. It has: Logout, Lock Screen, Switch User, Suspend, and Hibernate. No shut down. :(
[11:38] <alecwh> How do I fix this?
[11:38] <jqg> Happu,ok,thx
[11:38] <khelll> how to give the current user all permissions in the system
[11:39] <Happu> jqg: no problem
[11:39] <alecwh> !sudo > khell
[11:39] <frySt> khelll  doing this permanently is a very bad idea, temporary superuser powers can be given with sudo
[11:39] <bullgard4> What does 'FF' stand for in /proc/acpi/button/power/PWRF/info "type: Power Button (FF)"?
[11:40] <KillerKiwi2005_> any one know how to stop power manager adjusting the screen brightness?
[11:40] <frySt> sudo <command> for one time execution and sudo su to become root
[11:40] <vaineh> hi, anyone else having trouble connecting to gb.archive.ubuntu.com??
[11:40] <frySt> vaineh  i cant get there neither
[11:40] <arcad3> !postfix
[11:40] <ubotu> postfix is the default Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) for Ubuntu. Read more about setting it up here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix or here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto
[11:40] <dimebar> ultrazauberer: geany may also be worth a look
[11:40] <rausb0> vaineh: i cannot connect it
[11:41] <vaineh> ok thanks, not just me then
[11:41] <khelll> what do u mean by temporary
[11:41] <khelll> only for the current open console
[11:41] <khelll> ?
[11:41] <frySt> i mean you are really not advised to do everything as a superuser/admin/root
[11:41] <bogcardh> irc.mugimugi.org
[11:42] <frySt> but only one time command excecutions, by prefixing a 'sudo'
[11:42] <ultrazauberer> thank you dimebar, i'm already downloading and installing these tools
[11:42] <khelll> yes but every thing i try to do am being askd for permissions
[11:42] <bogcardh> irc.mugimugi
[11:42] <ultrazauberer> there must be an alternative for me to use
[11:42] <ultrazauberer> so many tools
[11:42] <khelll> and am the owner of this pc , so i want to behave freely
[11:42] <frySt> but that is not secure
[11:43] <frySt> ultrazauberer  there are even some plugins for gedit
[11:43] <khelll> ok what to do then
[11:43] <jqg> Happu,ping will block my web server???It will create a http connection to my apache?
[11:43] <frySt> have a look at the development section of synaptic package manager
[11:43] <khelll> am newbie to linxu
[11:43] <Happu> khelll: if you are going to run only as root, you won't be the owner of your PC much longer
[11:43] <Happu> jqg: yes
[11:43] <rausb0> khelll: go on, break your system... working as root all the time is a really bad idea.
[11:43] <frySt> khelll  u can use gksu for gui (alt+f2 and run gksu) or u can open a terminal and type sudo <command>
[11:44] <jqg> Happu,what principle?Can you refer it for me?
[11:44] <khelll> in fact some visiual tools like rapidsvn never works
[11:44] <frySt> like you want to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf or something else that u cant do as normal user u need to write 'sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[11:44] <khelll> it keeps giving permission deny error
[11:44] <Happu> jqg: thats why you shouldn't block ping. You just don't have a much options if you are gettind Dossed do you?
[11:44] <Happu> jqg: I'm not very good with those things, so I can't really tell how it works :/
[11:45] <frySt> you are aware that you need to re-enter ur user password with both gksu and sudo?
[11:45] <frySt> its pretty straightforeward
[11:45] <khelll> what is gksu
[11:45] <khelll> how to run it
[11:46] <frySt> alt+f2 pops up the run dialogue and u can enter gksu there
[11:46] <frySt> or you can use the menu entry.. i forgot the excat location .. maybe admin tools maybe asccessories
[11:47] <frySt> it says "run as different user"
[11:47] <frySt> but in general its more convenient to have a terminal open and just use sudo
[11:47] <khelll> ok
[11:48] <Happu> terminal is perfect to configure your system
[11:48] <khelll> ah
[11:48] <vaineh> should apt-get be using a mirror or something if gb.archive.ubuntu.com is not connecting? apt-get just fails - connection timed out, unable to fetch some archives etc...
[11:48] <khelll> i got that to work now
[11:48] <khelll> thanks alto
[11:48] <khelll> alot
[11:48] <frySt> :>
[11:49] <frySt> youre welcome
[11:49] <asdf> Frogzoo: got it. thanks a ton
[11:49] <Frogzoo_> asdf: hope that works for you
[11:50] <Taggard> Does anyone know a good way to dual boot Ubuntu with OS X and/or a good way to reformat a partition without destroying the rest of the drive?
[11:50] <asdf> frogzoo: just rebooting now, moment of truth
[11:50] <frySt> i never touched a mac, but i heard of this great bootloader (is it bootcamp) and that it works fine with it

[11:56] <ceil420> Fry Street? of Denton? :o
[11:56] <newbienik> Romnous, youe best bet is the samba website www.samba.org, there are some great examples to follow in there too
[11:56] <frySt> ehe
[11:56] <Romnous> thanks newbienik :)
[11:56] <dvm> i have download the dsl-n. How can i install it on USB drive? Please refer me some URLs

[11:58] <ceil420> frySt, Fry Street = what used to be the "happening part of town" in Denton, where all the college kids hung out. it recently got bought out and they're makin' a strip mall or something ;x
[11:58] <khelll> how to install rmagick
[11:58] <frySt> wmahah
[11:58] <rodserling> java is a pain to install for me
[11:59] <cyphase> what kind of frame-rates are people getting with compiz fusion, and according to what?
[11:59] <howlingmadhowie> i've just finally really understood exactly why gnu and free software. something just went click in my head.
[11:59] <Helmi> does anyone know of a text editor that counts words live? so while i'm typing the text i see a display saying "xyz words"?
[11:59] <rodserling> why what?
[12:00] <frySt> Helmi  basically every texteditor does this i believe
[12:00] <Helmi> frySt, really? where is the display? i only see line numbers and stuff but no word count
[12:00] <jetscreamer> i think he means running count, displayed at all times
[12:00] <ceil420> nano doesn't
[12:00] <frySt> ah lol noo only lines and cols
[12:00] <frySt> not words
[12:00] <howlingmadhowie> Helmi: single threaded applications won't do this. you may find a multi-threaded text editory which does this
[12:00] <jetscreamer> word count
[12:00] <frySt> sorry for that :>
[12:01] <Iwizzard> How do I get ubuntu to run the command "sudo hidd --server --search" att startup?. Tried to do it via Sessions but nothing happened
[12:01] <Helmi> not a problem, frySt
[12:01] <bullgard4> What does the dmesg message "ACPI: Sleep Button (CM) [SLPB] " mean?
[12:01] <howlingmadhowie> rodserling: well, what the point of gnu is. what rms has been trying to do. it suddenly makes perfect sense to me
[12:01] <Sinderking> yawnnnn
[12:01] <drcode> hi all
[12:02] <drcode> is there some ubuntu release for server?
[12:02] <howlingmadhowie> Iwizzard: have a look at /etc/rc.d
[12:02] <drcode> I am looking for console only
[12:02] <Wermut> Which part of the file system is necessary for bootup process and GRUB? Only /boot?
[12:02] <howlingmadhowie> drcode: there is an ubuntu server edition
[12:02] <Iwizzard> howlingmadhowie: no but I shall look now
[12:02] <Sinderking> hey drcode
[12:02] <drcode> realy
[12:02] <drcode> its open source also?
[12:02] <rodserling> howlingmadhowie, share your enlightenment :D
[12:03] <jqg> Happu,another question,I modify the value of /proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_all ,but after reboot it is recovered!
[12:03] <Helmi> does anyone know a way to use key-shortcuts to functions in gedit not already set with a key combo? like the document statistics (that includes word count)
[12:03] <howlingmadhowie> Iwizzard: there's also somewhere in $HOME/.gnome (i think) a directory called autostart, where you can add commands to be carried out as soon as your windows manager starts
[12:03] <drcode> howlingmadhowie: what link?
[12:03] <Iwizzard> howlingmadhowie: I dont seme to have a file called that, gets a blank txt page
[12:04] <Iwizzard> howlingmadhowie: ok, shall look into that aswell
[12:04] <Happu> jqg: hmm... So you didin't try with command "sudo iptables..."? There must be some file to override the original file
[12:04] <howlingmadhowie> drcode: havea  look at the options here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[12:05] <Wermut> Which part of the file system is necessary for bootup process and GRUB? Only /boot? Can I delete everything else?
[12:05] <Frogzoo_> Wermut: to boot to multiuser you'll need /boot, /, & /usr
[12:05] <jqg> Happu,no,it seems like simpler with icmp_echo_ignore_all ;)
[12:05] <rodserling_> hey
[12:06] <Happu> jqg: if running the command trough the terminal doesn't help you, you're on your own :/ I don't know what file rewrites it
[12:06] <Tr3z0> I'm not sure if any of the guys that helped me out yesterday are about the channel, right now, but I'm the guy who's nick yesterday was [T] ree and was fighting the losing battle with getting his wireless network adapter to work on Ubuntu.
[12:06] <howlingmadhowie> Iwizzard: hang on, i think my autostart idea is the same as your sessions. that may not be the best idea. have a look at rc.d :)
[12:06] <jqg> Happu,thax
[12:06] <Tr3z0> Well, today I come bearing a screenshot of the errors I got consistently after talking to you guys.

[12:06] <Happu> jqg: maybe someone knows ;)
[12:06] <Frogzoo_> Wermut: just deleting stuff you don't know what it is is gonna mess up in interesting ways
[12:06] <Tr3z0> Does anybody have any ideas on how to fix these errors?
[12:07] <Wermut> Frogzoo: I am giving the Computer away and wanted to shrink the Ubuntu partition to a mininum size and then hide GRUB boot menu
[12:07] <howlingmadhowie> Tr3z0: you're missing header files.
[12:08] <Tr3z0> Where could I get some
[12:08] <Tr3z0> ?
[12:09] <frySt> would not re-installing ubuntu with a minimal setup be more convenient?
[12:10] <Tr3z0> I had JUST -actually- installed Ubuntu, then went about trying to use the archive I got from the Packages list of Ubuntu's website. It gave me those errors. For some reason, ndiswrappers wasn't listed in Synaptic. I'm not sure why...
[12:10] <howlingmadhowie> !pastebin
[12:10] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[12:10] <pawan_> hi
[12:11] <frySt> hm, ndiswrapper really should be installed right form the start, iirc
[12:11] <howlingmadhowie> Tr3z0: can you try this?: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31887/
[12:11] <Tr3z0> That's what everyone was telling me. But it wasn't there.
[12:13] <bullgard4> What does 'FF' stand for in /proc/acpi/button/power/PWRF/info "type: Power Button (FF)"?
[12:13] <Calymos> I, unsurprisingly, have a question. I have a Trendnet USB WLAN thingy, and the "drivers" needed by the system to use it, but I can't overwrite the files. Any ideas?
[12:13] <howlingmadhowie> Tr3z0: oo, compiling and installing ndiswrapper from source isn't easy. it may be easier to find out why it isn't in your apt-cache
[12:14] <Happu> Tr3z0: what wlan card are you trying to get to work?
[12:14] <Tr3z0> D-link DWL-G520M
[12:15] <Happu> ok
[12:16] <Happu> Tr3z0: did you try madwifi?
[12:17] <Tr3z0> Did I try what?
[12:17] <Happu> madwifi driver
[12:17] <Tr3z0> For the record, guys, I'm a complete Ubuntu noob.

[12:17] <lightning18> modem driver?
[12:17] <Tr3z0> I've been being helped religiously by Ubuntu users
[12:17] <Tr3z0> Also

[12:18] <lightning18> SM56 PCI Modem? HELP PLEASE
[12:18] <frySt> haaheh
[12:18] <Tr3z0> give me a second to start my laptop so I can boot my PC into Ubuntu
[12:18] <Happu> Tr3z0: madwifi.org
[12:18] <frySt> is it about microsoft being OK of piracy in china because windows needs less cd-rs than linux?
[12:18] <frySt> so bigger user-base
[12:18] <frySt> haha
[12:18] <lightning18> SM56 PCI Modem? HELP PLEASE for Ubuntu Feisty Fawn
[12:18] <alex_> exit
[12:19] <alex_> quit
[12:19] <nox-Hand> alex_: fail :)
[12:19] <nox-Hand> What eth is WLAN?
[12:19] <lightning18> please help me
[12:19] <Happu> nox-Hand: not eth, it's wlan0 or something like it
[12:19] <frySt> iwconfig
[12:20] <lightning18> please help me
[12:21] <Calymos> How do I get root access so I can overwrite config files? I found drivers for my WLAN usb thingy, but I can't update the existing ones...
[12:21] <lightning18> anybody here?
[12:22] <howlingmadhowie> lightning18: it looks like you have a winmodem there
[12:23] <boris_> is compiz installed in dapper ubuntu ?
[12:24] <nox-Hand> Happu: I found it on eth1 :) Thanks though =D
[12:24] <haha> haha
[12:24] <haha> i love ubuntu
[12:24] <Happu> nox-Hand: is that even possible :D
[12:25] <Happu> nox-Hand: but good for you :)
[12:25] <nox-Hand> Happu: No idea! =D It is probably some evil spawn of the devil, but it JustWorks(tm)
[12:25] <Calymos> Anybody know the answer to my question? I have no idea how to run with Sudo...
[12:25] <Happu> nox-Hand: it's all that matters isn't it :)
[12:25] <kenan> haha : I want to love ubuntu too
[12:26] <nox-Hand> Always, Happu, always.
[12:26] <Happu> Calymos: I didn't even understand it
[12:26] <grizm> lightning18, it looks like only suse, mandrake and fedora have support for sm56 modem http://www.motorola.com/softmodem/sm56_download.htm
[12:26] <Tree> Ok, back
[12:26] <Calymos> Oh. I'm trying to update my zd1211 files, so I can use my usb wlan thingy, but I can't overwrite them.
[12:27] <Tree> urgh
[12:27] <Happu> Calymos: is it some kernel module?
[12:27] <Calymos> Er... I have no idea.
[12:27] <Happu> Calymos: type modinfo zd1211
[12:28] <Happu> Calymos: does it say anything?
[12:28] <Calymos> I'm using my windows right now, because I can't get on with my usb...
[12:29] <Calymos> If it helps, the file is located at    lib/firmware/something...
[12:29] <spl0it> I'm having a problem trying to run k3b... when I start k3b it dies on the splash screen - with 'drive not ready for command' and the drive it's throwing the error on is hdd (my old cdrw), my new dvdrw is hdc, anyway I can tell it to ignore that device? or whatever? I tried turning off my old cdrw from bios but that didn't seem to help - any assistance would be appreciated
[12:30] <Calymos> Also, the thingy I'm using (or trying to) is a TrendNet TEW-424UB .
[12:30] <Lightenix> hello,  anyone can tell me if this device ( /dev/.static/dev/parport0 ) is the device user called dl8dtl here http://www.avrfreaks.net/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=46305&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=20&sid=04df37630d0544c74c5d0bc7101df4fd is talking about?

[12:31] <shadow_lightning> i am lightning18
[12:31] <b0b> hi ! could you help me ? i cannot change my resolution under console mode with my intel graphic card (x3100gfx). i put video=intelfb:mode=1024x768-32@60 in /boot/grub/menu.lst (kernel line) and have no effect and error. i'm trying to load the module manually -> modprobe intelfb mode=1024x768-32@60 and have the same. i decide to use the tool -> "fbset" to force the resolution ... and when i try to run them i get this error -> "open
[12:31] <shadow_lightning> yes i was using a winmodem
[12:31] <shadow_lightning> a SM56 PCI Modem
[12:32] <shadow_lightning> how to install that in ubuntu 7.04
[12:33] <howlingmadhowie> grizm: he could use alien to make a deb package of the rpm
[12:33] <grizm> I don't know, the packages are kernel-specific
[12:33] <shadow_lightning> please help
[12:33] <shadow_lightning> me
[12:34] <b0b> help me please
[12:34] <shadow_lightning> please help me
[12:34] <Happu> b0b: did you select intel driver?
[12:35] <Happu> b0b: I needed to get gutsy for my x3000
[12:35] <DjViper> b0b: try writing out your problem over more than on line
[12:36] <Lightenix> anyone can tell me where is located parport?
[12:36] <stuart-> is it normal to have ubuntu run a little 'sluggish' compared to XP running a little smoother on desktop?
[12:37] <PriceChild> stuart-, "sluggish" is a matter of opinion.
[12:37] <PriceChild> stuart-, I'd say ubuntu would be more responsive
[12:37] <Happu> stuart-: I don't think so. Do you have graphic driver installed?
[12:37] <soundray> stuart-: no. This is typically caused by some process hogging CPU time.
[12:38] <stuart-> yup. nvidia is working fine. but i find the responsiveness a lil slow on ubuntu. but that's just minor things like minimizing things, changing windows, etc.
[12:38] <stuart-> in terms of program processing, ubuntu is more stable
[12:39] <shadow_lightning> my modem please? help
[12:39] <Happu> stuart-: what prosessor do you have?
[12:39] <user__> daniel
[12:40] <Calymos> Ooh, is it possible to use the existing windows drivers to run my device? Anybody have a guess?
[12:40] <stuart-> Happu, old crap. p667. but comparison is done on the same system
[12:40] <Happu> stuart-: ok, so it should be well supported
[12:41] <dWho> hi
[12:41] <stuart-> and it's not a particular WM or anything. to me, linux just is always slightly slugger than what i used to feel on XP. one that that doesn't let me down is it's slow and steady. so kinda like a tradeoff
[12:41] <grizm> shadow, there are drivers available for your modem, but they are precompiled for specific distributions. You'lll have the best chance if you install Mandrake 10 and download the driver for your modem from here: http://www.motorola.com/softmodem/sm56_download.htm
[12:42] <stuart-> but i've ditched windows entirely anyways so, unless i'm a crazy gamer, i won't be going back
[12:42] <fNatiC`> hi ppl
[12:42] <frySt> ehe
[12:42] <shadow_lightning> grizm: thanks, but i don't have mandrake
[12:42] <fNatiC`> my sound card is Realtek and i my buffer doesnt work
[12:43] <dWho> does anyone knows where I can get a good free file hosting for my small application so everyone can download it and use it...
[12:43] <fNatiC`> only the headphones.. and on the volume control there is only Headphones selected
[12:43] <fNatiC`> O.o
[12:43] <Happu> dWho: filefront is ok for small files
[12:43] <spl0it> how do I disable a cdrom device?
[12:43] <tupa> dWho: why does everybody wants more for less :P
[12:43] <tupa> dWho: rapidshare?
[12:44] <dWho> i would like to contribute to the community so I made a gui program for ffmpeg so everyone can convert a/v for free using gui
[12:44] <soundray> dWho: you might want to look at http://savannah.nongnu.org/
[12:44] <Calymos> Happu: I'm gonna go try that modinfo thing, what might I be looking for?
[12:44] <tupa> spl0it what is "disable for you"
[12:45] <tupa> aah, good ol' savana
[12:45] <grizm> shadow, here are the mandrake download pages ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/mandrake/Mandrakelinux/official/iso/10.2/i586/
[12:45] <shadow_lightning> i nid the help of the CRAZY PROGRAMMERS OUT THERE
[12:45] <spl0it> well k3b is trying to use hdd (my old cdrw) and the system is hanging because of it, I disable that device in my bios, but it still tries to use it... so I want to disable the device so I can use k3b (proper device is hdc - my dvdrw)
[12:45] <shadow_lightning> grizm: thanks for the link, i'll try to look for it
[12:45] <Happu> Calymos: type modinfo and the name of that thing you wanted to see
[12:46] <Happu> Calymos: if it gives some info about it, it's and kernel module
[12:46] <Happu> Calymos: kernel modules can be removed and you can install the new one
[12:46] <tupa> spl0it, that's might not be OS problem, but k3b
[12:46] <Calymos> So I'd be able to remove it, and put the new one in?
[12:47] <Happu> Calymos: yes
[12:47] <soundray> spl0it: try 'gksudo k3bsetup' -- there might be an option to tell k3b to ignore the drive.
[12:47] <shadow_lightning> i nid to compile the driver for SM56 PCI Modem but there is an error?
[12:47] <Calymos> How would I do that?
[12:47] <Happu> Calymos: modprobe -R <module>
[12:47] <Happu> Calymos: with sudo of course
[12:48] <Happu> Calymos: sorry, its actually lower case r
[12:48] <Calymos> so it'd be sudo modprobe -r zd1211?
[12:48] <Happu> yes
[12:48] <Calymos> ok
[12:48] <Happu> but check first if it's a module
[12:49] <spl0it> soundray - thanks
[12:49] <Calymos> Ok, just to make sure, I'll go to terminal, type modinfo zd1211, and if there is info, type the rest of that?
[12:49] <soundray> Happu, Calymos: zd1211rw probably
[12:49] <Calymos> ?
[12:50] <spl0it> soundray: nothing started with that command after I authenticated
[12:51] <_nnx_> I reinstalled udev and now I'm getting an utter cascade of errors.  Things SEEM to be working fine, however, but there's just a huge cascade of them when I start up the system.  What do I do about this?
[12:51] <spl0it> ah k3bsetup doesn't appear to exist
[12:51] <spl0it> I gotta get to work -  bbl
[12:51] <nicolas_> Hi, I've got a Davicom Semiconductor 21x4x DEC-Tulip compatible 10/100 Ethernet pci card but it doesn't work. I've googled and all I found was old info about the tulip and dmfe modules (they all said to unload tulip and load dmfe, but that was fixed in dapper).
[12:51] <nicolas_> How do I get it to work?
[12:51] <shadow_lightning> grizm: i a'm looking for an external modem, and i found US Robotics 56K Message Modem,  IS THAT FINE WITH UBUNTU 7.04
[12:52] <Happu> Calymos: if the command doesn't give any output, typi lsmod and see if there is something like zd1211rw
[12:52] <Happu> Calymos: then remove it and update to the new one
[12:53] <Calymos> Do I need to use sudo to move files in there?
[12:53] <Calymos> the firmware place?
[12:54] <Gentine> Hello?
[12:54] <Happu> Calymos: yes
[12:54] <Lustblader> hi
[12:54] <shadow_lightning> grizm: i a'm looking for an external modem, and i found US Robotics 56K Message Modem,  IS THAT FINE WITH UBUNTU 7.04
[12:54] <Calymos> What would I type for that?
[12:55] <Happu> Calymos: did you install the new driver already?
[12:55] <jonah> would anyone be kind enough to send me ghamachi or give me another mirror, their website has been down for a week!
[12:55] <soundray> shadow_lightning: don't repeat please and don't use CAPS, if someone knows, they will answer.
[12:55] <Lustblader> shadow_lightning: look in the cd they give whether they have drivers for linux
[12:55] <Calymos> No, I can't do anything yet; still on windows. I need to reboot to linux, but then I can't get online
[12:55] <Calymos> only one computer, see...
[12:56] <Ward> Hi, i've got an external monitor plugged in to my laptop, so my second screen is right of my laptop screen. I'm experiencing one annoying problem: my mouse pointer looks like a big square on my external monitor
[12:56] <shadow_lightning> Lustblader: thanks, what cd
[12:56] <Happu> Calymos: too bad :/ Well I can't help much futher because I don't know anything about the module you are going to install, if it's even a module
[12:56] <crolle17> i changed the user by su -l postgres, but then autocompleting isn't available. is that a bug?
[12:56] <Gentine> Ward: Are you using the restricted nvidia drivers?
[12:57] <Calymos> Happu: Would it help if I sent you the link I got the driver at?
[12:58] <Gentine> Does anyone know the  name of the ubuntu discussion (not help) channel?
[12:58] <Ward> Gentine: no the restricted ati drivers
[12:59] <Frogzoo_> georg_s: #ubuntu+1
[12:59] <Gentine> Ward: that might be your problem, I'm sure you're aware ubuntu doesn't play nice with ati as it is... hmm, so it's only like that on your second, monitor?
[12:59] <Frogzoo_> Gentine: #ubuntu+1
[12:59] <Ward> Gentine: yes it is
[12:59] <Happu> Calymos: let's try :)
[12:59] <Gentine> Frogzoo: thanks
[12:59] <Ward> Gentine: let my try the opensource driver - 'ati' it's called, right?
[12:59] <jonah> hi has anyone got the ghamachi binary they could send me or upload someplace for me please, the website has been down for a week and can't find it anywhere
[12:59] <georg_s> ACPI on Toshiba laptop. How do i get the fan to work harder? It shuts down if it works to hard

[01:00] <Happu> Calymos: wait a second
[01:00] <georg_s> Sorry that was a big post. But how do i chance the high values? thanks!
[01:01] <Ward> Gentine: i dont know, i didnt use an external monitor then

[01:01] <Ward> Gentine: let me try the opensource drivers - brb
[01:01] <Gentine> Ward: alright.
[01:01] <Happu> Calymos: you should print that page

[01:03] <stuart-> is there any diff between intel and amd on linux
[01:03] <Calymos> Happu: Encryption guide? To close off my connection to others, or get into it?
[01:03] <Lustblader> stuart-: i don think so

[01:04] <Calymos> Happu: So it is in fact a module?
[01:04] <Happu> Calymos: to close your connection. You don't have to use it if you don't want. It's in the part 3 of the guide. If you don't have printer be sure you can acces that guide from your linux (save it to disk or something like that)
[01:04] <Happu> Calymos: yes, it's an driver module

[02:11] <guyvdb_> Hi, i have installed the restricted nvidia drivers. How do i make the changes to xorg.conf needed. I seen to remember a command for doing this instead of manualy editing xorg.conf
[02:11] <Toma-> PrimoTurbo: hahaha............
[02:11] <minhvu> swmiller6 : how can I test ?
[02:11] <Toma-> PrimoTurbo: um what are you compiling in there before you melt your cpu?
[02:11] <minhvu> swmiller6 : how can I fix it ?
[02:11] <PrimoTurbo> just some custom device code
[02:11] <Happu> neol: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration
[02:12] <crybabyzero> .
[02:12] <neol> Happu, checking...
[02:12] <swmiller6> minhvu: check your permissions on the /tmp folder should be owned by root but writable to all
[02:13] <Toma-> PrimoTurbo: good luck. btw custom kernel problems shouldnt be reported to launchpad, obviously
[02:13] <minhvu> how do I check ?
[02:14] <swmiller6> minhvu: right click the folder and click the permissions tab
[02:14] <PrimoTurbo> I was joking ofcourse I am acctually just compiling the vanilla kernel with Con Kolivas's patch for desktop responsivness
[02:14] <minhvu> swmiller6 : ok
[02:15] <othoth> ho riavviato dal live, ho dato sudo fdisk -l, le partizioni le vede, e adesso???

[02:15] <ubotu> othoth: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[02:15] <PrimoTurbo> I must say the kernel has not even compiled yet and Ubuntu is already twice as fast
[02:15] <minhvu> what must I do ?
[02:16] <swmiller6> minhvu: writable to all?
[02:16] <wehttamb> how can i use vnc on port 80

[02:18] <minhvu> and k3b
[02:18] <event> hi all
[02:18] <Toma-> PrimoTurbo: just to be certain, make an average of how fast firefox loads with 'time firefox' then test it out after you have compiled your new kernel
[02:18] <minhvu> swmiller6 : I can not remember all
[02:18] <PrimoTurbo> Toma-: Will do thanks for the tip
[02:18] <wehttamb> idleone: how can i do that?
[02:18] <westguy> I have install ClamAV where can I find the launcher or shortcut?

[02:19] <zyth> IdleOne, lol
[02:19] <wehttamb> idleone: can i change what port vnc listens on?
[02:19] <swmiller6> minhvu: I am not sure I hate to take you down the wrong path and make it worse sorry
[02:20] <IdleOne> wehttamb, maybe I am not certain
[02:20] <wehttamb> ok
[02:20] <khelll> why the move to trash is not active for many folders
[02:20] <IdleOne> wehttamb, lookup vnc FAQ see if that gives you any help

[02:24] <frySt> i got sorta the same problem
[02:24] <molkko> my webcam kind of works but I would like adjust exposure etc parameters. I suppose its about setting driver parameters. how can i find out what parameters can be adjusted? how to adjust them? lsmod? modprobe?
[02:24] <frySt> there must be a soluting after four years?
[02:24] <westguy> How to update clamAv?
[02:25] <Rimers> molkko: what cam is it?
[02:25] <molkko> Rimers, logitechquickcam
[02:26] <Rimers> molkko: okay, what driver is it using? pwc?
[02:26] <molkko> no gspca
[02:26] <Rimers> okay, give me a sec and ill see if i can find a hint
[02:27] <NET||abuse> jeeeesus!! something is making my machine go absolutley insane... cpu load through the roof,, everything just hangs for about 3 minutes.. sucks..
[02:27] <molkko> ok tnx in advance. but i am also more generally interested in if you can find out what parameters of a module are available for me to adjust and how to do it
[02:27] <Frogzoo> NET||abuse: top
[02:27] <TTilus> NET||abuse: top
[02:28] <TTilus> ;)
[02:28] <frySt> aha
[02:28] <frySt> i found the solution
[02:28] <frySt> http://www.linuxarkivet.se/mlists/linux-kernel/0311/msg03127.html
[02:28] <NET||abuse> yeh, i've looked things were jumping up and down like crazy,, granted i'm using compiz-fusion, and kiba dock which i compiled myself ;)
[02:28] <Frogzoo> NET||abuse: hit P to sort by % cpu
[02:28] <TTilus> NET||abuse: see what eats up cpu (if anything) and mem (if anything)
[02:29] <Rimers> molkko: check this page out, think that should help ya. http://mxhaard.free.fr/download.html
[02:29] <TTilus> NET||abuse: or < and > to select next or previous sort-by column
[02:30] <NET||abuse> yup,, have that done already, it was kiba dock i think and java,, running zend studio while sitting on compiz-fusion and kiba-dock was hissey fitting a bit.. killed everything
[02:30] <Pici> NET||abuse: htop is easier to use and has more features imo.
[02:30] <westguy> any 30 and above top with place now?
[02:30] <NET||abuse> nope, all down to 8/9%
[02:31] <Plantain> If I plug in a SATA disk, how can I mount it?
[02:31] <Plantain> (Without rebooting?)
[02:31] <esteem_> When using DD to take the image of my CF card (compact flash)... People have told me that I am supposed to un-mount the volume first. This is all well and good, but in reality - when I rightclick my CF card on the desktop to unmount, then proceed to take the image, linux (or rather, DD) can no longer even see the SDF device and I am unable to go further with it

[02:34] <drewniak> sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/disk/by-uuid/747C42287C41E608 /media/hdd5 -o force
[02:34] <drewniak> then
[02:34] <drewniak> WARNING: Dirty volume mount was forced by the 'force' mount option.
[02:34] <drewniak> and nothing happens
[02:35] <TTilus> drewniak: hum, dunno what could help...
[02:35] <drewniak> :/
[02:35] <Imitation> drewniak: have you done a fsck for your partition?
[02:36] <drewniak> how can i run it?
[02:36] <Frogzoo> drewniak: boot doze & let it sort it out
[02:36] <drewniak> what?
[02:36] <TTilus> Imitation: i bet linux doesnt have fsck for ntfs-3g, thats why it asks to boot to windows
[02:36] <Frogzoo> boot windows
[02:36] <drewniak> i booted twice
[02:36] <drewniak> and no scandisk appears
[02:36] <Frogzoo> drewniak: boot windows
[02:36] <drewniak> then?
[02:37] <Frogzoo> mount the drive?
[02:37] <TTilus> looks like windows leaves it dirty _every_ time, no matter if it fixed it first or not...  bad
[02:37] <drewniak> it doesn`t work
[02:37] <drewniak> uhm
[02:37] <Frogzoo> !doesn't work
[02:37] <ubotu> Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[02:37] <TTilus> Frogzoo: /lastlog, drewniak has explained the situation several times
[02:38] <drewniak> yesteray all worked fine
[02:38] <drewniak> but today
[02:38] <drewniak> i boot ubuntuy
[02:38] <TTilus> i bet windows leaves your hd dirty _every_ time you shut it down
[02:38] <drewniak> and there is no partition
[02:38] <drewniak> tilus how to fix it?
[02:38] <TTilus> drewniak: no idea :-O
[02:38] <drewniak> :/
[02:39] <Frogzoo> drewniak: you've tried scandisk?
[02:39] <drewniak> win xp sucks
[02:39] <drewniak> yes
[02:39] <drewniak> few times
[02:39] <TTilus> Frogzoo: it does not help if windows leaves the disk dirty every time
[02:39] <Frogzoo> no
[02:40] <nitrocks> is there a way that I can use a password of less than 6 characters in ubuntu?.. passwd keeps giving me a "Bad: new password is too short"
