[21:53] <redharvest> chris0: i'm pretty sure it's nm-applet
[21:53] <PriceChild> illriginal, nothing... those are just patches that have been applied to get the desktop cd below
[21:53] <timglock> will it run tho? you need to be root to make these changes
[21:53] <CVD-PR> sup
[21:53] <RedCyper> hi there
[21:53] <avis> chris0, i believe the gnome applet is network-manager-gnome or gnome-network-manager dont remember
[21:53] <chris0> redharvest: BOOYA. Thanks!
[21:53] <droazen> timglock: if you run it from /etc/rc.local it will run as root
[21:53] <timglock> so i do sudo etc, but if i chmod the file to root, will it run at root level?
[21:53] <chris0> avis: its nm-applet
[21:53] <jarrettgreen_> Can anyone point to to a newb tutorial for setting up BIND with my first domain? I think this is my last step to getting my dapper box ready to go
[21:53] <cosmodad> I'm overwhelmed by the number of virtualization solutions out there. Is there any preferred application one can recommend (for non-HW-supported virtualization)?
[21:53] <avis> oops i was wrong :)
[21:53] <timglock> so i just add it to there and it will run?
[21:53] <chris0> avis: redharvest just got it for me Thz anyway
[21:54] <illriginal> -.- i read it wrong
[21:54] <timglock> i will try it now droazen and get back to you
[21:54] <illriginal> thanks Pricechild LOL
[21:54] <droazen> timglock: yes, but it will run at the very end of the boot process
[21:54] <x0rg62> :P
[21:54] <timglock> erm
[21:54] <timglock> so the mac will be assigned
[21:54] <timglock> but then changed before the gui loads?
[21:54] <releod> hi - I am trying to figure out how to get a total  number of files (recursively inside a folder) - any ideas?
[21:55] <droazen> timglock: the commands in rc.local run after all other boot scripts
[21:55] <abomb83> does anyone know how to get the xorg.conf back?
[21:55] <timglock> is there anyway to get it to run sooner?
[21:55] <avis> releod, you can use gnome's nautilus if you right click the folder they are in and do properties.
[21:55] <_alien_> can somebody help me, how to install mysql ?
[21:55] <releod> avis: oops.. I am in terminal right now, no monitor
[21:55] <DiploCat> I recently updated the xserver-xorg-intel driver, and now the graphics are running considerably slower... is there a way to roll back? or at least check exactly what was updated?
[21:55] <droazen> timglock: yeah you can manually add a symlink to it to one of the runlevels
[21:55] <epcadmin> .....................................................0................
[21:56] <hspaans> releod: find . -type f | wc -l
[21:56] <epcadmin> .0.
[21:56] <epcadmin> 00
[21:56] <RedCyper> and here my problem: rootpath=/cdromrw;target=iso;correcting md5sums for testcd...; writing imagefile iso...; size of boot image is 4 sectors ->no emulation; gensioimage: no space left on device. cannot fwrite 32768*1
[21:56] <releod> thanks hspaans
[21:56] <robdig> timglock: if you want to have it run prior to the interface coming up, think you can put it in /etc/network/interfaces. look at man interfaces, and search for pre-up to see if it meets your needs
[21:56] <RedCyper> any idea??
[21:56] <oyvind> nm
[21:57] <releod> hspaans: does that include folders as well?
[21:57] <hspaans> releod: directories? no
[21:57] <timglock> droazen could you tell me how quickly? how would i add /home/tim/mac to runlevel 3 is it?
[21:57] <oyvind> nm-applet doesnt work, any other ideas ?
[21:57] <timglock> rod ill try that too i think
[21:57] <hspaans> releod: only files
[21:57] <timglock> robdig*
[21:57] <droazen> timglock: the name you give the symlink determines when the script runs during boot
[21:57] <prince_jammys> _reload_: try::  find . -type f -print | wc -l     (should work even you have file names with spaces)
[21:58] <mrpockets> is there any program in ubuntu that'll monitor system temps for me?
[21:58] <mrpockets> my fans seem to be going nuts..
[21:58] <droazen> timglock: notice how in /etc/rc3.d all the links begin with S and then a number?
[21:58] <chris0> mrpockets: I use gkrellm
[21:58] <droazen> timglock: the lower the number you give it the sooner it will run in the boot process
[21:58] <jarrettgreen_> Can anyone point to to a newb tutorial for setting up BIND with my first domain? I think this is my last step to getting my dapper box ready to go
[21:58] <hspaans> mrpockets: sudo apt-get install sensord
[21:59] <hspaans> jarrettgreen_: read the arm document its on the isc site
[21:59] <DiploCat> can someone tell me how to rollback a package updated through apt-get?
[21:59] <Morph3us> hi, one simple question.. how can do i mount automatically a westerndigital usb external hard disk ?

[22:00] <LjL> DiploCat: not supported, but you might have luck with « sudo apt-get --reinstall install packagename=versionnumber »
[22:00] <jarrettgreen_> hspaans I'm not sure what the isc site is

[22:00] <timglock> sorry droazen not sure how to make a symlink,

[22:00] <LP> can anyone help with a problem of network card (active at boot time, according to webmin, but not active after)
[22:00] <LP> ?
[22:00] <DiploCat> cheers LjL
[22:00] <bsdnewb07> mean in sendmail?
[22:00] <timglock> i will try and look it up
[22:00] <droazen> timglock: ln -s
[22:00] <hspaans> jarrettgreen_: isc.org they maintain bind
[22:00] <ASTURIAS> I'm trying to upgrade from Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty to Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy and I run the command update-manager -c and the bar says Downloading files something about preparing the Upgrade and when the bar is at the middle, it goes out and nothing happens!!!
[22:01] <abomb83> i wasn't sure if anyone responded to me, i had the question about xorg.conf
[22:01] <droazen> timglock: put your actual script in /etc/init.d
[22:01] <x0rg62> error : keyboard not found : press any key
[22:01] <hischild> abomb83, i'm sorry, could you repeat your question?
[22:01] <prince_jammys> abomb83: what is the question?
[22:01] <droazen> timglock: then create a link to it in the appropriate runlevel directory /etc/rc#.d
[22:01] <mrpockets> thanks hspaans
[22:02] <timglock> sudo ln -s /home/tim/macchange /etc/rc3.d/s1macchanger ? droazen
[22:02] <droazen> timglock: and name the link according to how early you want the script to run in the boot process
[22:02] <droazen> timglock: yes that is the syntax
[22:02] <avis> Squawk, i think you need libdvdcss2 and libdvdread3.  you -might- i'm not sure need to add medibuntu for that.  it also helps to have gstreamer0.10-* and w32codecs installed
[22:02] <droazen> timglock: but you should make sure the script is owned by root
[22:02] <abomb83> sure, i lost my xorg.conf.
[22:02] <prince_jammys> abomb83: there are some backups in the same directory as xorg.conf :: you could try one of those. they are in the form of : xorg.conf.1 xorg.conf.2, etc or xorg.conf.blahblah
[22:02] <ArthurArchnix> ubududes and dudettes, I was here earlier looking for a way to batch edit a bunch of images... may I recommend to your attentino phatch. Dear lord does this program rock... http://photobatch.stani.be/   here's the link on the forums that started it all http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=466598   If you're looking for a way to edit hundreds of photos recursively in a few clicks (drag and drop!) may I recommend this to y
[22:02] <timglock> i did chown root macchanger
[22:02] <abomb83> I was wonderign how t oget i tback
[22:03] <timglock> so yeah it is now
[22:03] <Squawk> avis, thanks man, currently reading up a few threads in the forums, install-css jobbie
[22:03] <leblinux> Guys, how to remove the Ubuntu Splash image during boot?
[22:03] <abomb83> ok thanks
[22:03] <timglock> thats what i said at the beginning, the script must be made by root so it will run with roos privs right
[22:03] <prince_jammys> abomb83: are you on a terminal?
[22:03] <oyvind> does anyone know the command that starts the Gnome panel network applet? nm-applet didnt work
[22:03] <timglock> thats why if i did it with my username it would not work right droazen
[22:03] <abomb83> i'll try to copy them
[22:03] <_alien_> can somebody help me, how to install mysql ?
[22:03] <releod> hspaans: do you know a way to list all unique file-types in a folder -R ?
[22:03] <droazen> timglock: right, it does need to be owned by root
[22:03] <releod> (file extensions)
[22:03] <CorruptTerrorist> does the wubi installer require the alternate iso's?
[22:03] <nixnoob> can someone help me setup dual monitors on my x800 ?
[22:03] <timglock> ok ill try this and get back to you
[22:03] <droazen> timglock: it should work provided you put it in the right runlevel dir
[22:04] <hspaans> releod: filetypes?
[22:04] <droazen> timglock: and provided it's not loading TOO early
[22:04] <prince_jammys> abomb83: copy one of the backups (the most recent) into xorg.conf --- to avoid making a huge mess, back them all up first (maybe to your home directory)
[22:04] <droazen> timglock: eg., it might depend on something earlier in the boot process....
[22:04] <ASTURIAS>  I'm trying to upgrade from Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty to Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy and I run the command update-manager -c and the bar says Downloading files something about preparing the Upgrade and when the bar is at the middle, it goes out and nothing happens!!!
[22:04] <timglock> rc3 is normal GUI right?
[22:04] <b4l74z4r> how much space should i make for swap if i want ubuntu to have 2gb of swap?
[22:04] <abomb83> yes, things are running a little slow, that is why i'm a bit slow to respond
[22:04] <EnvoyRising> nixnoob: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221174
[22:04] <timglock> multi user and gui right?
[22:04] <RedCyper> and here my problem: rootpath=/cdromrw;target=iso;correcting md5sums for testcd...; writing imagefile iso...; size of boot image is 4 sectors ->no emulation; gensioimage: no space left on device. cannot fwrite 32768*1
[22:04] <hischild> b4l74z4r, 2gb of swap means you make a part of 2gb ....
[22:04] <hischild> EnvoyRising, ^
[22:04] <releod> hspaans: file extensions
[22:05] <nixnoob> EnvoyRising, i tried that guide.
[22:05] <EnvoyRising> b4l74z4r: +2048M
[22:05] <RedCyper> hello????
[22:05] <CorruptTerrorist> how does lubi work?
[22:05] <droazen> timglock: hang on let me double-check on that
[22:05] <EnvoyRising> nixnoob: and what results did you get?
[22:05] <RedCyper> can anyone hear me??
[22:05] <releod> hspaans: (mp3, mp4, avi, etc)
[22:05] <hspaans> releod: ls | sed "s/\.[^.]*$/" | sort -u
[22:05] <EnvoyRising> RedCyper: yes
[22:05] <ASTURIAS> RedCyper, we can read you
[22:05] <hischild> RedCyper, what's up? your question is spread so far out that i can't find it. Repeat on a single line please
[22:05] <b4l74z4r> hischild: i made 2048mb of swap space with the partitioner, but after ubuntu was installed the  swap is just 1.9gb
[22:05] <hspaans> releod: its untested
[22:06] <RedCyper> and here my problem: rootpath=/cdromrw;target=iso;correcting md5sums for testcd...; writing imagefile iso...; size of boot image is 4 sectors ->no emulation; gensioimage: no space left on device. cannot fwrite 32768*1
[22:06] <droazen> timglock: i think it's actually runlevel 2
[22:06] <hischild> b4l74z4r, that's normal. It will still be 2gb
[22:06] <droazen> timglock: for multi-user mode with gui
[22:06] <CorruptTerrorist> !lubi
[22:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lubi - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[22:06] <CorruptTerrorist> urgh
[22:06] <nixnoob> EnvoyRising, some weird colors on my monitor presumably because some rediculous mode was set or some incompatible refresh rate
[22:06] <hischild> b4l74z4r, it's actually 1,99 probably which is rounded down to 1,9
[22:06] <timglock> ok droazen
[22:06] <b4l74z4r> hischild: so i will be able to hibernate with 2048mb of ram?
[22:06] <gebeleizis> hi all
[22:06] <RedCyper> i want to burn an iso with the bash, but it does not write it on the usb-device
[22:07] <gebeleizis> will ever compiz work with xinerama?
[22:07] <hischild> b4l74z4r, hibernating writes to your hard disk, not to your swap
[22:07] <hischild> b4l74z4r, if you mean the mode i'm thinking you mean
[22:07] <b4l74z4r> yes
[22:07] <Smegzor> Anyone using a daemon called preload?  Is it worth installing?
[22:07] <hongo_> how can I set my box to remember the custom resolution??? it always starts in 800x600 please help
[22:08] <ASTURIAS>  I'm trying to upgrade from Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty to Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy and I run the command update-manager -c and the bar says Downloading files something about preparing the Upgrade and when the bar is at the middle, it goes out and nothing happens!!!
[22:08] <avis> hongo_, you might have to do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver.xorg but be sure to backup your /etc/X11/xorg.conf in case your not familiar with it
[22:08] <leblinux> Guys, how to remove the Ubuntu Splash image during boot?
[22:08] <hongo_> I did that also
[22:09] <Flannel> leblinux: permanantly or temporarily?
[22:09] <hongo_> because my monitor was not detected right
[22:09] <b4l74z4r> has anyone had any luck with getting soundblaster x-fi cards working in gutsy?
[22:09] <leblinux> permanent. I would like to read whats going thru
[22:09] <danilo> hischild: no good... I was able to do as you said but got an error
[22:09] <hongo_> but now, I fixed the monitor issue, but have this new problem
[22:09] <hischild> danilo, what error?
[22:09] <EnvoyRising> is it possible to divorce an ubuntu install from all the ubuntu-ness and be left with a debian system?
[22:09] <stdin> leblinux: remove the word "splash" from /boot/grub/menu.lst
[22:10] <CorruptTerrorist> how do you get lilo?
[22:10] <leblinux> stdin, oh, do I have to update grub after that?
[22:10] <CorruptTerrorist> as in get it to work
[22:10] <hspaans> smegzor: some bit for kde, but gcc becomes smarter. its not worth the trouble imho
[22:10] <RedCyper> @hischild any idea??
[22:10] <avis> b4l74z4r, i -heard- but cannot verify that its supported in hardy which is to be released relatively soon
[22:10] <Flannel> leblinux: open up /boot/grub/menu.lst, scroll down a bit to the # defoptions line, remove "queiet" and "splash" from that line, then save, and sudo update-grub
[22:10] <hongo_> Iĺl make a script and change resolution everytime it reboots
[22:10] <stdin> leblinux: not if you manually remove all instances of "splash"

[22:10] <zulerdongle> hi there. i have an external lg dvd drive and it doesnt appear in my computer in ubuntu 7.10, how can i mount it or what do i have to do to access it ? thanks
[22:11] <hischild> RedCyper, if you're speaking to a person, precede the answer/question with the name.
[22:11] <leblinux> alright thank you stdin and Flannel
[22:11] <storm-zen> EnvoyRising: No.  See the relationship between ubuntu and debian, as explained on ubuntu's website.
[22:11] <CorruptTerrorist> how do i sort out a grub error 21?
[22:11] <Flannel> EnvoyRising: sure it is.  Its much easier to just install debian fresh though.
[22:11] <storm-zen> Flannel: That wasn't my understanding.  The site says that some apps aren't compatible with the debian releases.
[22:12] <hischild> RedCyper, i'll try to help you out, but please, repeat the question on a single line with my name on it so it gets a color
[22:12] <storm-zen> ... or did I misunderstand?
[22:12] <RedCyper> @hischild and here my problem: rootpath=/cdromrw;target=iso;correcting md5sums for testcd...; writing imagefile iso...; size of boot image is 4 sectors ->no emulation; gensioimage: no space left on device. cannot fwrite 32768*1
[22:12] <Flannel> storm-zen: no, they're not.  He'd have to take his ubuntu release, change his sources.list, and then do a lot of manual installation of stuff.
[22:12] <EnvoyRising> Flannel: i figured as much. debian just doesn't get my wifi config correct, and in order to do it manually i need to have a wired connection, which i don't
[22:12] <leblinux> Flannel, is there a way to customize/replace the splash picture with another one?
[22:12] <Flannel> storm-zen: It's doable, although not clean or automated in any way
[22:12] <Flannel> leblinux: Of course
[22:13] <hischild> RedCyper, it appears that the place that command is trying to write to is full
[22:13] <ompaul> EnvoyRising, and then when you get a kernel up grade it will die so work it out then
[22:13] <RedCyper> @hischild try to burn an iso to an usb-device
[22:13] <EnvoyRising> Flannel: which i new about. i just didn't know if ubuntu did something funky with the kernel that rendered it an impossible task
[22:13] <storm-zen> Flannel: Ok... so, in other words, it would be pretty nasty, and in some ways, a regression, right?
[22:13] <Flannel> EnvoyRising: ah, if you go ubuntu -> debian, it'll be identical to just using debian, so it wont help any
[22:13] <leblinux> Flannel, where do I put the picture?
[22:13] <EnvoyRising> ompaul: grr.. thats the part i was worried about
[22:13] <g0th> I deactivated Nautilus since it is quite ressource intensive and I never ever use the desktop manager. Though after doing this I just see a black background. When I open gnome-appearance-properties the background is shown though (just open it not setting anything). How can I activate the background by a command (which I will then start during each session)?
[22:13] <hischild> RedCyper, why don't you extract it to the usb stick?
[22:13] <Flannel> storm-zen: Yeah.  Given enough clout, you can make any linux into any other linux, if you're sadistic.
[22:13] <RedCyper> hischild yes, i am able to read ;)
[22:14] <ompaul> EnvoyRising, you got working wireless - you want none working wireless - go for it
[22:14] <storm-zen> Flannel: Got it.  Thanks.  (Wanted to make sure that I understood. ) :)
[22:14] <RedCyper> hischild i tried, but failed

[22:14] <jonnymac> sorry to ask this, anyone gota  link to playing dvd's in dapper? helping out a friend and I'm stumped
[22:14] <hischild> danilo, aah that explains a whole lot more. It appears that your UUID has changed and grub is confused about it.
[22:14] <storm-zen> I gtg reboot to get nvidia glx working.  be back in a bit.
[22:14] <leblinux> Flannel, where do I put the new picture?
[22:15] <ompaul> EnvoyRising, just choose a different theme for your gnome and change the gdm a bit
[22:15] <Hal9000> hello! i installed 7.10 on my laptop, but i hear no sound. soundcard is recognized, the mixer works, the apps play back sound, but i hear nothing, nor through speakers, nor through headphones... what's wrong?

[22:18] <Hal9000> OmiKrOn: nothing is muted
[22:18] <amenado> LP nothing show when you do  sudo ip a ?
[22:18] <Flannel> leblinux: that wont keep it running when he logs out (or closes the terminal)
[22:18] <mrpockets> leblinux, so if i wanna launch gkrellm
[22:18] <hischild> danilo, you can use supergrub to just fix grub instead of having to start all over again
[22:18] <mrpockets> i type gkrellm&
[22:18] <ASTURIAS> gui approach?
[22:18] <kamilkal> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57269/ here

[22:18] <RedCyper> hischild an i am root
[22:18] <leblinux> mrpockets, gkrellm &
[22:18] <speeddemon8803> krav3n, if you dont state your issues, we cant help you.

[22:19] <LP> thx amenado
[22:19] <CorruptTerrorist> ASTURIAS, as in open the update manager via the menu?
[22:19] <mrpockets> got it
[22:19] <mrpockets> thanks bro
[22:19] <leblinux> Flannel, it'll background it
[22:19] <ASTURIAS> yes
[22:19] <AlferedHichcok> in adept package manager. a package is "slapd"          is it the same as in http://www.openldap.org/software/download/   ? should i download slapd instead. ?
[22:19] <danilo> hischild: cool, I`ll try supergrub. Is it simple enough process?
[22:19] <krav3n> is there a virus scanner for ubuntu?
[22:19] <HoNgOuRu> how do I change resolution from the command line?
[22:19] <HoNgOuRu> help please
[22:19] <RedCyper> @hischild no error @ll
[22:19] <CorruptTerrorist> ASTURIAS, it still fails?
[22:19] <speeddemon8803> !virus | krav3n
[22:19] <ubotu> krav3n: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[22:19] <krav3n> and i have also have a question?
[22:19] <hischild> RedCyper, type mount and see if your usb stick is in that list
[22:20] <ompaul> Hal9000, then the only way to do get it sorted is to do the info gathering that the bot told you about and go to #alsa
[22:20] <hischild> danilo, yes it is very simple. Follow the onscreen instructions and you can't go wrong
[22:20] <krav3n> i want to install xubuntu
[22:20] <ASTURIAS> I can only see updates for Feisty but not the notice of the release to upgrade that is why i use the update-manager -c command
[22:20] <ompaul> krav3n, so go to #xubuntu
[22:20] <Pelo> krav3n, get it from the www.xubuntu.com site
[22:20] <krav3n> ok
[22:20] <mdmkolbe|work> A while back someone told me about a command that would list what programs were holding open the device file for the audio system, but now I've forgotten it.  Any ideas what that command was?
[22:20] <tgm4883_laptop> is it still the recommeded way to convert to a command line system is to edit /etc/inittab?  Maybe i'm searching for the wrong thing, but the last reference I see is from warty
[22:20] <danilo> hischild: tks!!
[22:20] <Hal9000> ompaul: ok thank you
[22:20] <krav3n> so how about my question
[22:20] <hischild> danilo, you're welcome
[22:20] <amenado> mdmkolbe|work-> lsof
[22:20] <coax> anyone who knows what device the serial port is? to my knolage it should be /dev/ttyS0 but it doesnt seem to work!
[22:20] <Hal9000> thats odd... with the live cd, sound worked... but once installed, it doesnt hehe
[22:20] <krav3n> is there a virus scanner for ubuntu?
[22:21] <RedCyper> @hischild i used the midnightcommander and it list the files and path on the usb device
[22:21] <Pelo> Hal9000, check that all the levels are up in alsamixer , and make sure your user has permision to use the sound device
[22:21] <krav3n> and is there a way to make a partition on a disk where the system is installed?
[22:21] <tgm4883_laptop> coax, i suppose it could be /dev/ttyS1 depending on which port you are plugged into
[22:21] <Pelo> Hal9000, restricted drivers might also be an issue
[22:21] <RedCyper> @hischild it'S mount; isn't it??
[22:21] <hischild> RedCyper, please type mount in a terminal and see wether your usb device is located there and with which path
[22:21] <er> is abiword dead?
[22:21] <CorruptTerrorist> ASTURIAS, install all of the updates for your current release, and the upgrade version should appear
[22:21] <Pelo> krav3n, you need to use the live cd to rezise it
[22:21] <Hal9000> Pelo: im using restricted drivers for wlan and graphics
[22:22] <HoNgOuRu> whats the application to change resolution from command line?
[22:22] <mdmkolbe|work> amenado: thx, that was exactly what I was looking for
[22:22] <ASTURIAS> It appears running the command,but that thing fails
[22:22] <ASTURIAS> the Updates are more than 160
[22:22] <krav3n> how do i do that?
[22:22] <amenado> mdmkolbe|work-> you're welcome
[22:22] <er> abiword hasnt been updated since 2006, is the project being discontinued?
[22:22] <MasterMel> hello.. got a question here.. is the formatted default disk for linux in fat32?
[22:22] <Pelo> Hal9000, if your sound card is also a nvidia or ati chipset that might also be an issue but what do I know
[22:22] <pepsi> hi
[22:22] <krav3n> i have a cd for ubuntu
[22:22] <er> abiword hasnt been updated since 2006, is the project being discontinued?
[22:22] <ompaul> ASTURIAS, do this, sudo apt-get -d upgrade
[22:22] <amenado> MasterMel-> nope
[22:22] <pepsi> how can i setup multiple IPs on one interface?
[22:22] <ASTURIAS> Thnaks, I'll try that
[22:22] <Hal9000> Pelo: sound card is from connexant / intel hd audio
[22:22] <ASTURIAS> Thanks**
[22:22] <krav3n> how do i resize it?
[22:22] <Pelo> krav3n, that will be good for modifing your partitions
[22:23] <amenado> pepsi-> you have to use  ip command, man ip
[22:23] <krav3n> just insert the cd?
[22:23] <krav3n> and after that?
[22:23] <Pelo> krav3n, boot the live cd , goto , lmenu > system> admin > gnome partitton editor
[22:23] <MasterMel> amenado: ok so it is possible to read ffiles that are bigger then 4 gig?
[22:23] <ompaul> ASTURIAS, that is download only - after it is all downloaded you can do it again without the -d and let it install
[22:23] <krav3n> i'll try that later
[22:23] <storm-zen> I've just enabled compiz because I want to see what all the fuss is about. ( I'm running gutsy. )  Is there some sort of FAQ that explains what I need to be looking for (as far as what is different than a non-compiz display) ?
[22:23] <Pelo> !sound > Hal9000 check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu
[22:23] <krav3n> thanks
[22:23] <mdmkolbe|work> Ok, new question.  Given a process id number how do I figure out which window that is for?  (I've got multiple copies of evince running and I need to figure out which one matches a perticular process id)
[22:24] <amenado> MasterMel-> do you really want to? you got enuff memory to hold it?
[22:24] <CVD-PR> how to changr screen resolution form the command line?
[22:24] <pepsi> amenado, ok.. i was looking at /etc/network/interfaces but it seems i cant do it in there.. how can i make it work every time the computer starts?
[22:24] <hspaans> er: abiword is still alive and releases

[22:24] <amenado> pepsi-> what have you tried on that interfaces file to add a second ip address?
[22:24] <Pelo> mdmkolbe|work, goto menu > system > prefs > appearance, last tab , click the customize button, you'll see all the pluggins that are available
[22:24] <MasterMel> amenado: yes i really need to because its a medai file (movie) thats need to be played
[22:25] <pepsi> amenado, well theres an iface eth0 inet dhcp line, so i tried to add another line.. iface eth0 inet static.. but it complains about multiple entries for eth0 or something
[22:25] <amenado> MasterMel-> dont you mean stream it in?
[22:25] <amenado> pepsi-> you may have to do eth0:1
[22:26] <amenado> pepsi, oh wait, using dhcp, i dont think you can, but if you use ip add ... or ifconfig ...it will work
[22:26] <mdmkolbe|work> Pelo: ??? How does setting the "Visual Effects" help me find the window matching a particular proc id?
[22:26] <MasterMel> amenado: i've tried streaming but that didnt work becaus ethe file was to big.. now i just want to copy the entire 4.4 gigs.. but after 3.6 gig i get an error it cant be copied.
[22:27] <amenado> MasterMel-> hang on, i thought i saw an article about that..let me look
[22:27] <Pelo> mdmkolbe|work, my mistake I must have missread your question, I thought you wanted to know what compiz did that was different the no-compiz
[22:27] <Pelo> my mistake
[22:27] <storm-zen> Is there a quick way to see what compiz can do, when it's enabled?  ( I've enabled it successfully... I can tell because it does something very strange when a window is dragged. )
[22:27] <MasterMel> amenado: ok :)
[22:27] <Pelo> mdmkolbe|work,  the lovely ppl in #compiz-fusion might be able to help you more on this
[22:27] <speeddemon8803> storm-zen, wobbly windows is enabled :)
[22:28] <Pelo> mdmkolbe|work, apparenly my statement was meant for storm
[22:28] <EnvoyRising> screw it, if i'm going to break my system, i'll do it the right way -- hardy alpha here i come
[22:28] <Pelo> storm-zen, goto menu > system > prefs > appearance, last tab , click the customize button, you'll see all the pluggins that are available
[22:28] <danand> storm-zen - take a look at http://ulyssesonline.com/2007/10/25/compiz-fusion-keyboard-shortcuts/
[22:28] <soto> Anyone know how to set up an NFS4 server? After following Wiki I get "mount.nfs4: No such device"
[22:28] <ompaul> EnvoyRising, check out #ubuntu+1 for todays gotchas
[22:28] <speeddemon8803> EnvoyRising...err...nevermind
[22:29] <arko> hi
[22:29] <speeddemon8803> From what I hear hardy is becoming more and more stable as the days go by.
[22:29] <mrpockets> If anyone would be willing to talk me through getting my TV Tuner up and running, and the different options i have to do so. I'd really appreciate it
[22:29] <mrpockets> This is my third month in a row trying to get this running, and it seems to be near impossible
[22:29] <storm-zen> Pelo: Don't see a "customize" button. :(
[22:29] <ghostlines> does anyone know how to minimize a fullscreen tc-elite?
[22:30] <Pelo> mrpockets, search for mythtv in the forum www.ubuntuforums.org
[22:30] <LP> is there a way to rename an interface?
[22:30] <LP> like eth2 -> eth1 ?
[22:30] <mrpockets> Pelo, i have, and read much on it also. I cant seem to install it let alone configure it for my card
[22:30] <robdig> mdmkolbe|work: don't know how to go from PID to window, but you can run the command xprop | grep NET_WM_PID. It will turn your cursor into a plus sign, click on the window in question, and it will give you the top PID...
[22:30] <arko> I using Maple11 that does not work well with compiz. Is there a way to disable compiz temporally while I use that program and the get it back again?
[22:30] <mrpockets> i was weighing the options of going further into myth TV, or looking into trying to use Wine
[22:30] <Pelo> storm-zen,  I can'T tell you what it is exactly in englsh my os is in french,  the last option in the destkop effect tab,  there is a button to the right of it , click that
[22:31] <stroogle> howdy folks - just installed mysql but can't get to connect to it with a query browser, what should I check?
[22:31] <norty> I have a question, sometimes when I load programs like matlab or thunderbird that it doesn't maximize to the entire screen, part of the window such as the entire "x" box is off the screen to the right, how do I make it so that it always opens to maximize or at least within the monitor space?
[22:31] <luckyshot> hey guys, i just successfully installed ubuntu on my eee, is there any remote client for ubuntu i can use to connect to a different machine?
[22:31]  * troopperi is away: unella

[22:31] <yanger> having some trouble with ubuntu and a dvd drive... i burnt some avi files under windows on another pc, and when i try to play them off the ubuntu system, it warns me that the file i am trying to start (with gnome nautilus) is a text file and to override if needed. when i do override it, it takes forever and i get i/o errors in dmesg, any advise? works fine on windoze pcs and on other ubuntu pcs
[22:31] <LP> is there a way to rename an interface? in my iftab I've set "eth1" but it's being called eth2...
[22:31] <theXorcist> luckyshot: you could use SSH or VNC
[22:31] <Pelo> mrpockets, you should be able to isntall mythtv from the repos ( at least a 3rd party one),  the video card bit is someting else I am not famililar with
[22:31] <Hal9000> WTF
[22:31] <Hal9000> i just shut the laptop down
[22:31] <Hal9000> power off
[22:32] <Hal9000> then again up
[22:32] <PriceChild> !ohmy | Hal9000
[22:32] <ubotu> Hal9000: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[22:32] <mdmkolbe|work> robdig: thx, that got me the info I needed
[22:32] <Hal9000> NOW the sound works
[22:32] <FloodBot1> Hal9000: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:32] <luckyshot> theXorcist, are those pre installed?
[22:32] <danand> storm-zen - do you have compizconfig-settings-manager installed?? if not i don't think you'll have that button
[22:32] <Bodsda> hey guys, ive got a digital camera, and the memory card has things other then photo's on it, how would i go about browsing the card, adding/removing things from it?
[22:32] <AlferedHichcok> iam new at this ldap stuff. how shouldi setup the server and client in the most secure manner. so that if any other clients tries to pluge the cable to the server he wont get connected.? how do i do networking that way?
[22:32] <Hal9000> oh my god
[22:32] <hspaans> soto: make sure you loaded all modules needed
[22:32] <Pelo> later folks
[22:32] <theXorcist> luckyshot: not that I know of... but a simple apt-get should do it. Let me see if I can find something.
[22:32] <arko> found
[22:32] <luckyshot> theXorcist, okay thanks
[22:32] <stroogle> after mysql install I can't connect to it with a query browser?
[22:33] <stroogle> keep getting error 2003
[22:33] <CorruptTerrorist> anyone familiar with the jmicron bug?
[22:33] <stroogle> checked ip addresses and they all seem fine
[22:33] <mrpockets> well  I got the myth TV screen up. but I'm not sure what i'm looking at
[22:33] <PriceChild> CorruptTerrorist, "the"?
[22:33] <storm-zen> danand: No.  Just found out that I need to do that now.
[22:33] <stroogle> can log in at the command line
[22:33] <theXorcist> luckyshot: for SSH you can "sudo apt-get install ssh openssh-server"
[22:33] <soto> hspaans: Installation should load the modules automatically no?
[22:33] <ompaul> CorruptTerrorist, let me help you here - you either got it or you not got it you called that out several hours ago
[22:33] <ompaul> and you since seemed to write to your disks
[22:33] <luckyshot> theXorcist, okay let me try that, sec
[22:33] <stroogle> anyone?
[22:33] <hspaans> soto: only if you run Sun Solaris 10
[22:33] <theXorcist> luckyshot: that will install a secure shell client, which will give you SHELL access to your computer from another computer (like bash)
[22:34] <kostkon> Bodsda, set the camera to work as a usb mass storage device and not ptp. that way you wil be able to access files other than photos.
[22:34] <CorruptTerrorist> ompaul, what?
[22:34] <theXorcist> luckyshot: you'll need openssh-server on the computer you're going to be SSHing to
[22:34] <kostkon> Bodsda, it will work as a usb drive
[22:34] <soto> hspaans: I'm not running kerberos. What modules should I be looking for?
[22:34] <ompaul> CorruptTerrorist, the bug in question - write it into google and have a look
[22:34] <theXorcist> luckyshot: and keep in mind, this is only going to give you command-line access
[22:34] <luckyshot> theXorcist, i want remote acess though
[22:34] <Bodsda> kostkon, any idea how i would go about doing that? is it a setting on the camara?
[22:34] <CorruptTerrorist> ompaul, i have, several different ways to no avail
[22:34] <gopp> !egroupware
[22:34] <Centaur5> Does anybody know of a good program to look for deleted files on ext3 partitions?
[22:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about egroupware - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[22:34] <Bodsda> !anyone > stroogle      please read pm from ubotu
[22:34] <kostkon> Bodsda, yes, check you camera menus and configurations for such an option
[22:35] <theXorcist> luckyshot: this is one way of remote access. Another way (which will let you use GUI) is by using VNC or RDP
[22:35] <Bodsda> kostkon, cheers dude, will check now
[22:35] <gopp> !egroupware
[22:35] <kostkon> Bodsda, :)
[22:35] <theXorcist> luckyshot: let me look up the info for RDP/VNC
[22:35] <LP> is there a way to rename an interface? in my iftab I've set "eth1" but it's being called eth2... I've tried "ip link set dev eth2 name eth1", after reboot nothing has changed
[22:35] <luckyshot> theXorcist, okay, thanks
[22:35] <Syeakey> Anyone able to tell me how I can decrease the power/effectiveness to my ATI video card on a laptop? Like how the catalyst control center could do for windows?
[22:35] <danand> storm-zen - ok. you should get a new listing under the system -> preferences menu called advanced desktop appearance settings. that will take you into main config for compiz.
[22:35] <speeddemon8803> gopp, if the bot doesnt respond to a command in question the first time, it could be lagging, be patient :)
[22:35] <amenado> MasterMel-> I cant seem to find a bookmarked site regarding 4gig size files
[22:35] <hspaans> soto: something with nfs, nfs_acl, lockd if I'm correct (I don't use Linux NFS in production)
[22:36] <MrMist> I'd like to make .3gp files for my cellular, but ffmpeg in ubuntu doesn't have the correct codecs
[22:36] <storm-zen> danand: Ok.  Thanks. :)
[22:36] <ompaul> CorruptTerrorist, well get your eyes around this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.17/+bug/57502
[22:36] <stroogle> after installing mysql i can't connect to it with an error 2003, what should i look for?

[22:37] <Hal9000> btw any idea how to playback wma in ubuntu? it searches for codecs (like it did for mp3)  but doesnt find any...
[22:37] <Syeakey> Anyone able to tell me how I can decrease the power/effectiveness to my ATI video card on a laptop? Like how the catalyst control center could do for windows?:)
[22:37] <hischild> !install | zcat[1]

[22:37] <soto> hspaans: Thanks, loading the modules did it.
[22:37] <theXorcist> luckyshot: "sudo apt-get install tightvncserver xvncviewer" will install VNC viewer and server
[22:37] <Bodsda> kostkon, ok, done that, but its not showing up in nautilus?
[22:37] <ompaul> !test
[22:37] <MrMist> Scunizi: Huh ? How does this fix ffmpeg ?
[22:37] <theXorcist> luckyshot: you'll want those on both computers, the one you're viewing and the one you're viewing from
[22:38] <luckyshot> theXorcist, okay, whats better vnc or rdp?
[22:38] <theXorcist> luckyshot: VNC is used more often.
[22:38] <Scunizi> MrMist, sorry.. I came in late to the converstation.. thought you were just looking for the codec
[22:38] <hspaans> soto: also check if usermapping works (it should work now if I'm not mistaken)
[22:38] <Hal9000> ompaul: am i supposed to get something on !wma? didnt get anyhting
[22:38] <zcat[1]> hischild, ubotu hasn't said anything.. got a URL? can I just chuck the ISO onto my USB drive somehow?
[22:38] <luckyshot> theXorcist, okay, do you happened to have the rdp one too?

[22:38] <theXorcist> luckyshot: You'll need the IP of the computer you want to view, and that computer will need to have the server installed
[22:38] <hischild> zcat[1],  stupid bot ... i'll look, a second
[22:38] <kostkon> Bodsda, hmmm. do a "lsusb" in a terminal and see if it is recognized
[22:38] <chowder> can anyone help me change permissions for an external hard drive?
[22:38] <amx109> which channel do i go to for help with hardy?
[22:38] <luckyshot> theXorcist, okay
[22:38] <ompaul> Hal9000,  bot seems lagged https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[22:39] <Scunizi> luckyshot, both are built into ubuntu .. use Terminal Server client for access to both.
[22:39] <larson9999> this locking up on me is driving me crazy
[22:39] <theXorcist> luckyshot: I'm going to try to redirect you to a tutorial, because I've pretty much reached the limit of my VNC/RDP knowledge.
[22:39] <hischild> zcat[1], https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[22:39] <zcat[1]> also I left my laptop power supply at home so I have an hour and 20 minutes to figure this out :)
[22:39] <luckyshot> theXorcist, okay
[22:39] <CorruptTerrorist> ompaul, is it with ide drives only?
[22:39] <Bodsda> kostkon, hhhmm, strange,.,.when it was told to be a camera it shows up in lsusb, if i tell it to be a disk, i doesnt, but the camera says "Establishing a connection..."
[22:39] <mookid> can anyone please give me some advice - i'm looking for a really light weight irc client with a simple gui  - any ideas anyone
[22:39] <ompaul> CorruptTerrorist, it is gone a long time ago
[22:40] <Bodsda> mookid, xchat, pidgin
[22:40] <hischild> zcat[1], you seen that link?
[22:40] <kostkon> Bodsda, hmm. yes, that's strange.
[22:40] <CorruptTerrorist> ompaul, so it's fixed entirely?
[22:40] <mookid> light weight? :P
[22:40] <zcat[1]> hischild, reading it now..
[22:40] <hspaans> mookid: empathy or pidgin
[22:40] <ompaul> it should not be an issue as far as I am aware
[22:40] <theXorcist> luckyshot: here's a place to start - http://lifehacker.com/software/how-to/set-up-vnc-on-ubuntu-in-four-steps-317125.php
[22:40] <Bodsda> kostkon, the camera doesnt seem to be connecting to the computer
[22:40] <hischild> zcat[1], good :-)
[22:40] <soto> hspaans: Sorry, I'm not too familiar with NFS. The UIDs for files are not mapped to user names if that's what you mean.
[22:41] <amx109> anybody have the hardy desktop iso handy? im trying to install fro usb, using alt-iso but need the vmlinuz+initrd from desktop so i can read the vfat fs on the usb stick to mount it as a dir for the installer to see....
[22:41] <zcat[1]> also when I say USB drive I really mean 1G mp3 player :)
[22:41] <luckyshot> theXorcist, okay
[22:41] <CorruptTerrorist> ompaul, one last question... what if if doesn't work... how do i access windows?
[22:41] <hspaans> soto: no usermapping is when user soto is on server uid 1001 and on client 1002. usermapping corrects this
[22:41] <zcat[1]> this might get a little weird
[22:41] <theXorcist> luckyshot: hope it helps -- i gotta get back to studying for school :P
[22:42] <kostkon> Bodsda, hmmmm. if you use a usb hub, try to connect it directly to the pc.
[22:42] <Bodsda> kostkon, k, 1 sec
[22:42] <ompaul> CorruptTerrorist, nothing to do with it
[22:42] <hspaans> soto: don't know if it works correctly now on linux, but I only use NFS on Solaris
[22:42] <amx109> zcat[1]: which release of ubuntu are you installing?
[22:42] <ompaul> !ntfs > CorruptTerrorist (read the message from the bot and understand it before you ask any more)
[22:42] <zcat[1]> amx109, hardly hereyet
[22:42] <CorruptTerrorist> no message
[22:42] <amx109> zcat[1]: using the desktop or the alternative?
[22:42] <larson9999> zcat[1], can't wait for those 20 year batteries
[22:43] <ompaul> CorruptTerrorist, please wait a moment or two
[22:43] <CorruptTerrorist> !ntfs > CorruptTerrorist
[22:43] <zcat[1]> amx109, probably alt, I would think
[22:43] <CorruptTerrorist> nope
[22:43] <ompaul> CorruptTerrorist, wait the bot is not here atm
[22:43] <stroogle> hspaans - there is an entry in /etc/mysql/my.cnf that specifies the msyql.sock file which is in the right place i think
[22:43] <speeddemon8803> You guys do realize that the bot is not here.
[22:43] <speeddemon8803> :)
[22:43] <CorruptTerrorist> ouch
[22:43] <iceschade> which bot? ubotu?
[22:43] <iceschade> lol
[22:44] <amx109> zcat[1], ive just tried using alt. and its not going to work with an install from a vfat fs usb thing
[22:44] <speeddemon8803> yes.
[22:44] <hischild> iceschade, yes :(
[22:44] <iceschade> it greeted me when I came in
[22:44] <Thomas7> Hi @ all
[22:44] <Bodsda> kostkon, ok, i get a dialog box, asking if i want to import photo's (which i dont want to do)
[22:44] <iceschade> maybe... no it told someone else not to cuss
[22:44] <soto> hspaans: The UIDs turn out to be the same on both systems but the file owner on the mounted NFS partition is some other UID.
[22:44] <stroogle> hspaans - does that answer the question?
[22:44] <iceschade> hell
[22:44] <hischild> iceschade, it's not here atm :( doesnt's how for me
[22:44] <amx109> zcat[1], seems they left out the kernel module for reading vfat filesystems. u get to the point in the install where it tries to mount the cdrom drive and fails.
[22:44] <iceschade> wow, it IS gone.
[22:44] <zcat[1]> amx109, I'll reformat it ext2 or iso if need be..
[22:44] <speeddemon8803> yeah guys we said that already, hehe
[22:45] <hspaans> stroogle: look for the keyword "port"
[22:45] <iceschade> :D
[22:45] <kostkon> Bodsda, you get the dialog even if usb disk mode? nevertheless, do you see it in nautilus now as a drive?
[22:45] <kostkon> even in*
[22:45] <CorruptTerrorist> right... off to boot ubuntu under wubi
[22:45] <speeddemon8803> its down for a few minutes, needs a little rest time, asking it stuff gets it tired after a while ;)
[22:45] <iceschade> adios everyone.
[22:45] <hspaans> soto: then it should be fine
[22:45] <Bodsda> kostkon, ah, yes,,cool,.,.cheers dude,.thanks alot
[22:45] <hspaans> stroogle: keyword "bind-address" is the other one
[22:46] <kostkon> Bodsda, nice! :)
[22:46] <Odd-rationale> You know when you shut the lid of your laptop, the backlighting turns off. How do I query when that happens? I'm writing a shell script that would like to use that information. Thanks!
[22:46] <amx109> zcat[1], was just a headsup. im sat here in the middle of an install hoping someone around here will chuck me the files i need. really dont wanna d/l the desktop iso for two files
[22:46] <Thomas7> I try to share my internet connection with other computers in a LAN does someone know how to do this i'm trying now for about 5 hours
[22:46] <soto> hspaans: Alright, thanks for your help
[22:46] <Bodsda> kostkon, dont suppose you know anything about 'mobile phone games' do you?
[22:46] <hspaans> soto: np
[22:46] <speeddemon8803> !hi | all
[22:47] <zcat[1]> amx109, what two files?
[22:47] <CorruptTerrorist> where is bot?
[22:47] <MasterMel> amenado: ok no problem.. i will google for it asswell.. thnx
[22:47] <Bodsda> speeddemon8803, hey dude
[22:47] <speeddemon8803> crap...still not in this room :P
[22:47] <speeddemon8803> it came in beginners so i know its back somewhere.
[22:47] <Suhail> Hi guys, So I have vista installed right now and I want to install ubuntu but I don't want to get rid of windows for now
[22:47] <Bodsda> CorruptTerrorist, the bot is called 'ubotu'
[22:47] <speeddemon8803> Hey bodsda :)
[22:47] <Suhail> So there's two options
[22:47] <CorruptTerrorist> Bodsda, i know
[22:47] <Suhail> and the default seems to erase everything and install on the main harddrive index
[22:47] <hischild> Suhail, try to keep it all one a single line :-)
[22:47] <kostkon> Bodsda, not really. do you mean java (j2me) games? do you have a problem installing them, e.g. using bluetooth? I actually only know how to program in j2me
[22:47] <altermd> hello world, I just try Irc to day.
[22:47] <Suhail> And the other is manual
[22:48] <CorruptTerrorist> !wubi | Suhail
[22:48] <Suhail> heh
[22:48] <CorruptTerrorist> phail
[22:48] <speeddemon8803> The bot is down for some maintenance i believe.
[22:48] <mrpockets> Suhail, you need to either use two HDDs
[22:48] <mrpockets> or two partitions
[22:48] <amx109> zcat[1]: vmlinuz and initrd.img
[22:48] <speeddemon8803> hold on guys, it will be back in a few minutes im sure :)
[22:48] <__mikem> CorruptTerrorist: ubotu aint here right now
[22:48] <CorruptTerrorist> Suhail, you could use wubi if you wanted to test for a while
[22:48] <kostkon> Bodsda, but I ran j2me only on a palm pda
[22:48] <mrpockets> but dualbooting on one HDD if you've already got windows installed is a sonuvabitch
[22:48] <Bodsda> kostkon, the games that are preloaded on my phone are (.jad) formats, do you know what it stands for, and where i can get (.jad) games?
[22:48] <Sidney> boa noite
[22:48] <Syeakey> I want to decrease the power my video card uses, how can I do that?
[22:48] <Suhail> mrpockets: I have 1 partion and have freespace on it. I want to install ubuntu towards that free space.
[22:49] <hischild> Suhail, how much free space?
[22:49] <Suhail> 30 GB
[22:49] <mrpockets> then you'll need to reallocate that freespace into a seperate partition
[22:49] <stroogle> hspaans - it has port 3306 which is right i think, and socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock, the bind-address is the localhost <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:49] <hischild> Suhail, then you can just install it. be sure during installation NOT to remove the partition.
[22:49] <dhanar_10> how can i check whether an ntp server is active or not?
[22:49] <Suhail> Honestly, everytime I enter the partition utility for the ubuntu install package I get scared of ruining my Windows =()
[22:49] <mrpockets> hischild, ?
[22:50] <Jack_Sparrow> mrpockets: Dual boot..It is not hard at all... Please watch the language
[22:50] <hischild> Suhail, there's nothing to be afraid off.
[22:50] <hischild> mrpockets, what's up?
[22:50] <kostkon> Bodsda, actually they are java games. you could find many on the net, although most of them for a price (through the maker of the game or a mobile provider). In most cases you just need to upload them to the phone.
[22:50] <mrpockets> if hes got one partition with Vista on it and 30 gigs free space, he cant install Ubuntu onto the freespace of that partition...
[22:50] <hspaans> stroogle: and skip-networking has been commented out? then "netstat -na | grep 3306" should show something listening
[22:50] <hischild> mrpockets, why not?
[22:50] <speeddemon8803> ok....this is weird...
[22:50] <kostkon> Bodsda, in most cases wil consist of one jad and one jar file, if I'm right
[22:50] <Suhail> hischild: When I run the install it has the default checked off but it seems like it's install ubuntu on the 90 GB of space I have with windows on it will just erase it...
[22:50]  * speeddemon8803 looks around
[22:51] <hischild> Suhail, a second please
[22:51] <Bodsda> kostkon, ok, so can all modern('ish) phones handle java games, and do wou know where i could find some documentation on this?
[22:51] <hischild> mrpockets, why would he not be able to install ubuntu?
[22:51] <Sidney> #ubuntu-br
[22:51] <zcat[1]> amx109, http://kiwiarena.net.nz/files/hardy/  -- hardy a5 i386 desktop cd mounted by loopback, grab whatever you need.
[22:51] <mrpockets> first of all, its most likely an NTFS partition...
[22:52] <Suhail> It is.
[22:52] <hischild> mrpockets, i'm sure it's an ntfs partition vista is isntalled on
[22:52] <mrpockets> right...
[22:52] <sc0tch> Is there an aptitude console command that will show all installed packages that have an update available after doing an aptitude update? (I'm used to a GUI graphical update manager showing what packages have updates, but now need to use only console)
[22:52] <hischild> mrpockets, but that doesn't make a difference at all, since he installs it on the _free_ space he has, which is a total of 30gb
[22:52] <mrpockets> yeah
[22:52] <tony379> Hi I'm in panic here, new to Ubuntu 201cFeisty201d, a quick question...how do I display a list of recently installed applications, don't need lots of detail, just name and date installed. Thankful for any assistance.
[22:53] <mrpockets> for one, I'm pretty sure Ubuntu won't install on an NTFS partition
[22:53] <Suhail> hischild: Verdict?
[22:53] <danbhfive> tony379: i can kinda help, can you give more reasons why you need this?
[22:53] <mrpockets> seccondly, theres ALREADY a freaken OS on that partition..
[22:53] <Suhail> hischild: Right now my whole parition is one big ass 93 GB one with vista on it, how do I go forth?
[22:53] <stroogle> hspaans - nothing about skip-networking that's not commented out - netstat -na | grep 3306 shows  'tcp blah blah LISTEN'
[22:53] <kostkon> Bodsda, yes all new phones can run them, in one way or another. some games run only on some specific phones. I don't actually have a good documentation site to give you but by doing a detailed google search you will find useful things :)
[22:53] <Jack_Sparrow> mrpockets: The installer will shrink the ntfs and create the ubuntu and swap partitions.. please dont give out incorrect advice
[22:53] <HinHin> hmm... mrpockets it's possible to run ubuntu in windows :P
[22:53] <HinHin> vmware :P
[22:53] <danand> sc0tch - you can just do a sudo apt-get -s upgrade | less. this will only simulate an upgrade ie list the packages to be upgraded.
[22:53] <hischild> mrpockets, he has vista on a partition. NEXT to that partition he has _free_ space. This means _NO_ file system on it. He can create a new partition on it as ext3 and install grub with it and boot both right?
[22:53] <stroogle> hspaans - nothing about skip-networking that's not commented out - netstat -na | grep 3306 shows  'tcp blah blah LISTEN'
[22:54] <hischild> mrpockets, or am i missing one magic part that blows it up?
[22:54] <mrpockets> right
[22:54] <__mikem> HinHin: go with Virtual Box, vmware server isn't that good
[22:54] <Suhail> hischild: I have ONE parition that's 93 GB with vista on it.
[22:54] <mrpockets> i wasnt aware Ubuntus installer automaticly reallocates it..
[22:54] <hspaans> stroogle: then you should be able to connect, but permissions within mysql may be incorrect
[22:54] <hischild> Suhail, do you have free space next to vista? y/n
[22:54] <stroogle> hspaans - permissions eh?  what to check?
[22:54] <Suhail> hischild: This is new newbie but vista tells me I have 30 GB left =)
[22:54] <tony379> somebody installed new sofware and didn't tell me what? Something related to ALSA
[22:55] <Suhail> hischild: And ubuntu says I have 30 GB unused on that partition
[22:55] <hischild> mrpockets, ok i take it back, you're right. This is goin to be fun.
[22:55] <HinHin> __mikem, Virtual box... hmm... haven't heard of it
[22:55] <HinHin> i'll take a look
[22:55] <Bodsda> kostkon, cool,.,. just 1 more thin,.,.is it possible to convert a gameboy rom into a java format, and the game still work?
[22:55] <mrpockets> hischild, lol its cool. I just didn't know if i'ev been smokign too much pot or what
[22:55] <Suhail> hischild: This is easy for me if I had seperated out 10 GB before but instead I just allocated it all to vista :-\
[22:55] <hischild> Suhail, i now see what mrpockets was saying. He was saying you have 30gb free on that partition. It means ubuntu will try to shrink your vista partition and use the reallocated space for it.
[22:56] <amx109> zcat[1]: grabbed the files i needed, thank you very much
[22:56] <danbhfive> !who > tony379 please you my name, I missed your message, but I have something coming
[22:56] <Suhail> hischild: Is it possible to take the 30 GB of freespace and allocate some of it in a NEW partition for ubuntu without pwning my windows?
[22:56] <danbhfive> ls --help
[22:56] <hspaans> stroogle: is this an upgrade or a new installation?
[22:56] <danbhfive> wc
[22:56] <hischild> Suhail, the installer will try to shrink the partition windows is on and then create a new partition using the space it freed up.
[22:56] <Suhail> hischild: The default option seems like it installs over everything.
[22:56] <hischild> Suhail, there is however the risk that windows won't like it and complain a lot with the risk of reinstallation.
[22:57] <hischild> Suhail, no, default is to reallocate. The second and third are to use the full drive, cq use lvm on the full drive
[22:57] <Suhail> hischild: I read vista automatically shrinks so you don't have to worry =)
[22:57] <hischild> Suhail, ok
[22:57] <nickrud> Suhail: not to butt in here, but to butt in here: I'd recommend using vista's partition shrinker to make the space if you're worried at all. Then just point the ubuntu installer at the free space left over
[22:57] <Suhail> hischild: There's only a second option, not a third.
[22:57] <kostkon> Bodsda, I don't think so. but a java gameboy emulator may exist that will allow you to play gameboy games on your mobile, for example. I don't really know if such an emulator for mobile phones exists, I just throw it as an idea. you could do a google search for java emulators
[22:57] <stroogle> hspaans - new on a fresh 7.10 ubuntu install
[22:57] <Suhail> hischild: The second option = manual
[22:57] <hischild> Suhail, i have 4 or 5 options ...
[22:58] <hischild> Suhail, but i'm thinking in the lines of alternate install cd ... that's probably different
[22:58] <hischild> Suhail, then use the first one :-)
[22:58] <zcat[1]> cool, should have hardy on a stick pretty soon now :)
[22:58] <mrunagi> is there a command to see all about the cpu im running?
[22:58] <Suhail> hischild: I have -> ubuntu-7.10-desktop-i386
[22:58] <Bodsda> kostkon, some m8's of mine, have been given a gameboy game, that works on phones, but i cant find the guy who did all the work, so i cant find out how he did it,.,. anyway, thanks for your help m8!! ;~)
[22:58] <hischild> Suhail, i usually install using the alternate cd :-)
[22:58] <daedalus2_> mrangi: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[22:58] <atheodo> hi from maryland usa
[22:58] <hspaans> stroogle: check if commandline options work or else the mysql forum may be a better place to continue your journey (you're not alone with these issues)
[22:59] <danbhfive> tony379: try this: ls -tlu /var/cache/apt/archives/
[22:59] <mrunagi> ty
[22:59] <Suhail> hischild: When you d-click install, it only presents 2 options, default which makes it seem like you're install on top of your whole partition and manual which lets you play around
[22:59] <stroogle> hspaans - ok dude, thanks for time :)
[22:59] <hspaans> np
[22:59] <atheodo> i need some help with activation my soundcard on an inspiron e521
[22:59] <phuzion> For some reason, all of my files on my desktop are showing the same generic file icon, anyone know how to fix this?
[22:59] <Suhail> hischild: Mind screenshotting what you see, I really would rather not go through the headache of fucking up :P
[22:59] <kostkon> Bodsda, no problem! happy that I helped you :)
[22:59] <Bodsda> atheodo, what do you mean "activation" ?
[22:59] <zcat[1]> damn laptop keeps trying to connect to all the wifi points around here, had to turn wifi off
[23:00] <atheodo> i installed 7.10
[23:00] <hischild> Suhail, you can try to play around using manual. There you can shrink your current partition in size. Then use the newly freed space to install ubuntu.
[23:00] <Suhail> hischild: What's better for me? this desktop build or your alternate cd?
[23:00] <nickrud> phuzion: try selecting a different icon theme, system->prefs->appearance, custom button
[23:00] <atheodo> it says that it cannot find any sound compatible device
[23:00] <Bodsda> kostkon, can finally get music on my phone!!! ;~)
[23:00] <hischild> Suhail, what do you want me to screenshot?
[23:00] <Suhail> hischild: What you see for installing ubuntu on top of something
[23:00] <hischild> Suhail, no, it's that i know the menu's of the alternate from my head, just not the desktop :-)
[23:00] <atheodo> i get s speaker icon but with the stop sign on it
[23:00] <Suhail> hischild: oh...
[23:00] <hischild> Suhail, you can just install using desktop :-)
[23:00] <Bodsda> atheodo, ok, can you use my name in your post plz, so i dont miss them,. and type      asoundconf list        into a terminal, tell me the output
[23:01] <Suhail> hischild: Via the first option?
[23:01] <phuzion> nickrud, didn't do anything
[23:01] <reportingsjr> Is there a way to convert a .avi file to .flv?
[23:01] <hischild> Suhail, first option --> ?? (type it please)
[23:01] <zcat[1]> reportingsjr, upload it to gootube ?
[23:01] <nickrud> phuzion: alt-f2 killall nautilus, that should cause it to restart and reread it's config.
[23:02] <zcat[1]> reportingsjr, I think ffmpeg does that conversion.. or vlc perhaps
[23:02] <Suhail> hischild: http://content.zdnet.com/2346-12554_22-171001-7.html
[23:02] <atheodo> bodsda: i have the sound speaker icon on my desktop (gnome) but it has a stop sign on it and when I try to go to properties it says that no compatible devices are found, is ther a usb system i can get to have sound on the computer?
[23:02] <reportingsjr> zcat[1], it's ~634 mb, a movie
[23:02] <HinHin> reportingsjr, yes there is
[23:02] <reportingsjr> will it make it any bigger?
[23:02] <Suhail> hischild: Hence why I am scared: "Guided - use entire disk"
[23:02] <HinHin> I've seen apps around for it
[23:02] <reportingsjr> sweet
[23:02] <reportingsjr> HinHin, know the name?
[23:02] <phuzion> wee, thanks, nickrud
[23:02] <Suhail> hischild: Except I am not using VMWare, I am using my drive :P
[23:02] <zcat[1]> reportingsjr, ffmpeg, and there's a fron ent I think named winff, it's not in repos tho
[23:02] <HinHin> reportingsjr, depends what attributes you append to it
[23:02] <HinHin> reportingsjr, :( unfortunely no...
[23:03] <reportingsjr> HinHin, Ok
[23:03] <reportingsjr> I'm trying to put a movie on my phone
[23:03] <kostkon> Bodsda, :)
[23:03] <hischild> Suhail, i understand. Don't use guided, go for manual.
[23:03] <reportingsjr> only 1gb of space
[23:03] <Suhail> hischild: lol, oh man...
[23:03] <reportingsjr> zcat[1], thanks!
[23:03] <Suhail> hischild: You just almost effed me :P
[23:03] <hischild> haha
[23:03] <hischild> Suhail, it will _always_ ask for confirmation. Report back when it does :p
[23:04] <Suhail> hischild: Problem with manual is, can you seperate space from space already used by vista? =\
[23:04] <hischild> Suhail, we're about to find out :-)
[23:04] <Suhail> hischild: Well it's free space
[23:04] <zcat[1]> reportingsjr, if you're converting for phone you'll probably want to convert the resolution and bitrate down, so it will end up heaps smaller
[23:04] <pliumbum> hi, can anybody tell me if it is possible to reach your ntfs data from ubuntu when you have two OS - windows and ubuntu?
[23:04] <Suhail> I don't know how to take off a chunk =(
[23:04] <hischild> Suhail, there's a difference between free space and free space
[23:04] <Bodsda> atheodo, type lsusb, and pastebin the output
[23:04] <Suhail> hischild: That's really encouraging :P
[23:04] <reportingsjr> zcat[1], How much worse will it make it look?
[23:04] <nickrud> pliumbum: yes, you should end up with an icon of your windows drive on the desktop
[23:05] <zcat[1]> reportingsjr, If you do it right it will look as good as your phone screen can display.. iow crap :)
[23:05] <Bodsda> kostkon, ;-)
[23:05] <reportingsjr> haha
[23:05] <hischild> you know what, you got about 15 minutes? i'll get virtualbox up with a copy of desktop installer
[23:05] <hischild> Suhail, ^
[23:05] <hischild> Suhail, then we can go step by step :-)
[23:06] <pliumbum> nickrud, should it appear automatically after installing ubuntu? I have never before used two OS on the same comp. Though I am familiar with both windows and ubuntu
[23:06] <Suhail> Okay so does anyone here know how to seperate unused space by vista so you can repartion it? =(
[23:06] <nickrud> pliumbum: yes
[23:06] <zcat[1]> 50 minutes left...
[23:06] <Suhail> hischild: maybe...I'll...just wait to buy a mac...
[23:06] <zcat[1]> the race is on.. which will end first? putting the ISO on my mp3 player or the laptop battery...
[23:07] <Suhail> hischild: lol
[23:07] <ArthurArchnix> Suhail: Yes. But I need to find the link, can yo hang on a sec?
[23:07] <batma8> anyone in here runing gutsy on macbook v2 a1181??
[23:07] <pliumbum> nickrud: I see.. and I will also be able to write into my windows disk? And what about vice versa - will windows read ext3?
[23:07] <ArthurArchnix> Suhail: Cuz the instructions are a bit longish....
[23:07] <Suhail> ArthurArchnix: Sure
[23:07] <hischild> Suhail, you can do that. I'm just trying to make sure you don't screw up doing something that i could've prevented ;-)
[23:07] <Odd-rationale> pliumbum: Yes. but not vice versa
[23:07] <tkooda> are there (ubntu-server-7.10-i386.iso) kernel boot args that will let me install via serial console?
[23:08] <nickrud> pliumbum: yes, you can write to ntfs. if you get the driver from fs-driver.org , you can use the ext3 partition in windows as well
[23:08] <amx109> zcat[1]: sods law battery will die as you unmounting the usb drive and waiting for the cache to be flushed..
[23:08] <tim167> i want to move all jpgs in a folder, but i get 'argument list too long' if i do mv *.jpg ... how can I move many files at once ? thanks
[23:08] <IndyGunFreak> pliumbum, i believe there's a program you can use on windows, to write to ext3..
[23:08] <hspaans> ext2explorer
[23:08] <zcat[1]> amx109, yeah, fully expecting that
[23:08] <nickrud> explore2fs you mean. Reads only
[23:09] <zcat[1]> woot.. apparently done!
[23:09] <nickrud> zcat[1]: stick your finger in the power supply socket, you might just give it enough milliamps ...
[23:09] <zcat[1]> looking around the office to see if anything else here has an 18v power supply I can borrow..
[23:10] <pliumbum> you see, i have two hdds, 14 gb and 200 gb. So I guess the best for me should be to put windows into the big one and ubuntu into the small one, and in ubuntu I could use them both, while in windows the majority of the file space. agree? :)
[23:10] <hischild> Suhail, if you want you can go ahead. If someone else knows the menu as well, they can jump in here. Untill then i'll get it up and running in vmware which is about 10 minutes out :-)
[23:10] <zcat[1]> Oh well, in theory this should boot now
[23:10] <tim167> how do i move ±7000 jpgs to another folder ? mv *.jpg doesn't work , thanks
[23:10] <nickrud> pliumbum: sounds like a plan :)
[23:10] <hspaans> married
[23:11] <hspaans> #lart cat and mouse
[23:11] <amx109> bugger. the initrd transplant didnt work
[23:11] <pliumbum> thanks you guys :) i, being a ubuntu user, am trying to install ubuntu into my girlfriend's comp :)
[23:11] <ArthurArchnix> Suhail: Sorry... I was sure I'd posted about this before.
[23:11] <luigi_> !it
[23:11] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[23:12] <Odd-rationale> pliumbum: Be careful with that... :)
[23:12] <ArthurArchnix> Ok, here's what I learned after dual-booting with vista for a year and reinstall everything three times.
[23:12] <reportingsjr> zcat[1], what should I pet the bitrate and such at?
[23:12] <Suhail> ArthurArchnix: I might dangerously play with partition magic...
[23:12] <reportingsjr> put*
[23:12] <prince_jammys> tim167: for f in *.jpg; do mv "$f" /folder/path; done
[23:12] <pliumbum> oh, she asked me to do this, after when her windows refused for about two hours
[23:12] <ArthurArchnix> Suhail: Windows doesn't like to be resized to less than 60% of it's partition size. So, if you've got a 100GB partition, it will never let you resize below 60GB. Vista is even worse... :(   Anyway, what you want to do
[23:13] <ArthurArchnix> Suhail: No... not that... not yet.
[23:13] <pliumbum> refused to boot*
[23:13] <JDStone> I'm running Ubuntu server edgy and was wondering how to make my external USB hard drive auto mount when I plug it in?
[23:13] <prince_jammys> tim167: try cp instead of mv to test it
[23:13] <tim167> prince_jammys ok thanks, i will !
[23:14] <Suhail> ArthurArchnix: Sounds like it's smart to think ahead of time and partition two spaces =\
[23:15] <ArthurArchnix> Suhail: I should probably ask more questions... I've done things before, but whether I can help you or not depends on what you're doing. Whats' your setup? HD size? partition for Vista? what do you want? Dual-boot? what's the primary OS? Anything else I should know?
[23:15] <YahooLaptop> are there drivers in the linux kernel that support the Realtek 8187B wireless drivers?
[23:15] <karl_> i'm getting the ./configure error "configure:1782: error: C compiler cannot create executables but I have Build-essential installed"; anyone know how to remedy?
[23:16] <jarrettgreen_> if I have typed su and the passwrd to get to root, how do I go back to my other username?
[23:16] <Odd-rationale> jarrettgreen_: exit
[23:16] <Suhail> ArthurArchnix: 93 GB's of space, 30GB is free, dual boot, vista is primary os
[23:16] <karl_> jarrettgreen_: or you can do a CTRL-D
[23:17] <aloee> #salamanca
[23:18] <weeman13221> cany anyone here help with some xorg.conf issues im having with nvidia software?
[23:18] <lan-marie> does anyone know of a fix for fglrx drivers and getting suspend/hibernate to work on a laptop?
[23:18] <ArthurArchnix> Suhail: And you want ubuntu in the 30 GB you've already freed up? So.. you'll be using vista mainly, but you want to have some space to play with ubuntu?
[23:19] <Suhail> ArthurArchnix: I probably just want to put it with 20 GB's of space but yeah, play.
[23:19] <Suhail> ArthurArchnix: Eventually, move to
[23:19] <Bodsda> How would i o about converting file.flv to file.3gp? what program can do this?

[23:21] <eagleamon> Hi everyone.
[23:21] <ubotu> CorruptTerrorist: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[23:21] <erUSUL> CorruptTerrorist: or you can try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg'
[23:22] <eagleamon> I'm experimenting some troubles with the suspend function, could someone help me ?
[23:22] <anaxagorus> i am trying to connect to my ubuntu box via secure ftp -- what is the default port?

[23:23] <anaxagorus> sorry -- default port for sftp
[23:23] <NB2000> Is it my wireless router or this linux router?
[23:24] <reportingsjr> Can I convert a .flv into a .swf?
[23:24] <cambazz> thanks erusul
[23:24] <Bodsda> erUSUL, Error while opening codec for output stream #0.0 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height
[23:24] <daedalus2_> anax: default port for sftp = 22
[23:24] <ArthurArchnix> Suhail: Ok... well, here's what I'd do... IDEALLY... 1) backup my data. 2) reinstall vista. 3) update, install all programs, turn off system restore, delete update files (they're hidden). 4) reboot make sure everything works good. I've got no personal files on the system yet. (Let's say after reboot you find that Vista is using 12GB, I'll continue with that in mind). 5) Resize vista partition - how? {define desired size (say, 20GB, based on a 12GB in
[23:25] <NB2000> Default port is same as SSH port I believe.
[23:25] <ArthurArchnix> 6) Now you've got your ideal 20GB vista install. Create a 10GB ubuntu install using gparted. Create 10GB ext3 space, then make the rest ntfs, all using gparted.
[23:25] <anaxagorus> it's port 22 -- for those who care . ..
[23:26] <NB2000> anaxagorus thought so :)
[23:26] <jarrettgreen_> how can I as root, search my entire system to find the file source_cache?
[23:26] <hspaans> philphoto: what doesn't work?
[23:26] <jarrettgreen_> or multiplies of it
[23:26] <ArthurArchnix> 7) now you've got 20GB clean vista install, 10GB of ext3 (for future ubuntu use) and the rest (ntfs).
[23:26] <philphoto> hspaans:  I have NO usb at all
[23:26] <erUSUL> Bodsda: i found this on google ffmpeg -i temp.avi -acodec amr_nb -ab 32 -ac 1 -ar 8000 -vcodec h263 -s qcif -r 10 temp.3gp
[23:26] <mavi-> jarrettgreen_: find / -type f -name "source_cache"
[23:26] <Bodsda> jarrettgreen, sudo locate source_cache
[23:27] <mavi-> locate dont look everywhere tho
[23:27] <erUSUL> jarrettgreen_: locate source_cache
[23:27] <prince_jammys> mavi-: do sudo find as above
[23:27] <Bodsda> erUSUL, this is why i dont like ffmpeg,.,.thanks anyway but im gonna use the online converter,.,.cheers ;~)
[23:27] <ArthurArchnix> 8) Use PING (ping is not ghost -- google it) to create your very own bootable vista restore DVD. Very easy to do. This step is optional... but given how much goes wrong with windows, recommended.
[23:27] <ArthurArchnix> :)
[23:27] <panfist> hi im pretty new to linux and i think im getting some performance problems...2.4ghz pentium4, 1gig ram, 9800XT 256mb RAM and i get about 10fps in the game frets on fire. i thought the video card was the problem so i popped in a 9800xt instead of the geforce4200 i was using before. both times i thought i was using proprietary drivers, both times i got awful 10fps performance even at 640x480
[23:27] <ArthurArchnix> 9) Install ubuntu to 10GB space.
[23:27] <prince_jammys> mavi-: sorry, wrong person
[23:27] <hspaans> philphoto: and how did you detect that?
[23:28] <YahooLaptop> are there drivers in the linux kernel that support the Realtek 8187B wireless drivers?
[23:28] <leprasmurf> hello all. is there a way to disable cd autorun from console?
[23:28] <philphoto> hspaans:  first it was I noticed dead usb mouse, then I tested other dev's.  nothing works
[23:28] <ArthurArchnix> 10) Add files to the remaining space... personal files, which are now accessible to either Vista or Ubuntu. Whichever you decide to use. And if you decide to upgrade to the newest version of UBuntu, or maybe switch to Suse, or Fedora, then you just delete Ubuntu, install the other OS, and bam ... all your files are there. Vista is there. Easy peasy.
[23:29] <jarrettgreen_> I'm guessing if I type a locate, and nothing happens, and it just gives me a new clena command line prompt - nothing was found? It doesn't tell me nothing was found?
[23:29] <oddchild> Hello all, a friend of mine has a compaq nc6000 his computer takes 5 minutes to get into ubuntu. Does any one have any suggestions? I have tried turning off his wifi, removing CD etc...
[23:29] <erUSUL> jarrettgreen_: yes
[23:29] <hspaans> philphoto: does lsmod shows any modules loaded
[23:29] <Bodsda> jarrettgreen, nothing was found = correct
[23:29] <philphoto> hspaans: lshw still detects hardware, but find usbdevfs returns nothign
[23:29] <hspaans> usbdevfs is 2.4 kernel
[23:29] <philphoto> hspaans:  wait one
[23:29] <zcat[1]> argh!! server can only do pxe boot ..
[23:30] <amx109> zcat[1]: kinda stuffed ure plans then?

[23:30] <YahooLaptop> stroogle - mv or cp
[23:30] <jole> greetings!
[23:31] <YahooLaptop> stroogle - mv to "rename" a file and cp to "backup" a file
[23:31] <philphoto> hspaans: lsmod shows usbcore   and ehci_hcd, uhci_hcd
[23:31] <dal1> hey, i have 7.10.  why doesn't my add/remove applications utility work?
[23:32] <Odd-rationale> dal1: Any error messages?
[23:32] <Bodsda> dal1, because its broken? use synaptic or apt-get
[23:32] <oddchild> Hello all, a friend of mine has a compaq nc6000 his computer takes 5 minutes to get into ubuntu. Does any one have any suggestions? I have tried turning off his wifi, removing CD etc...
[23:32] <hspaans> philphoto: df shows udev?
[23:33] <Bodsda> oddchild, readahead, i think, speeds up boot process
[23:33] <Bodsda> !readahead
[23:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about readahead - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[23:33] <gopp> what the best way and easyiest way to make ubuntu in to a domain controller
[23:33] <philphoto> hspaans:  background is that I had hdd crash last week & i'm using my ide drive which was formerly dual-boot windoze.  the crashed hdd i had to disable in bios & reload linux on the drove operating now, but has no usb.
[23:33] <oddchild> how Bodsda ?
[23:34] <philphoto> hspaans: no udev
[23:34] <memento> hello somebody experience with MoBlock ???
[23:34] <Bodsda> oddchild, well, i think 7.10 already has it,.,. but im not even sure if readahead is the correct name
[23:34] <Bodsda> !find readahead
[23:34] <oddchild> he has 7.10 :)
[23:34] <hspaans> philphoto: no udev is your issue
[23:34] <ubotu> Found: readahead, readahead-list
[23:34] <CorruptTerrorist> it didn't work
[23:34] <CorruptTerrorist> xserver crashed
[23:34] <Bodsda> !info readahead | oddchild
[23:34] <oddchild> how do you do that?
[23:34] <ubotu> oddchild: readahead (source: readahead-list): read files into the page cache. In component main, is optional. Version 1:0.20050517.0220-0ubuntu11 (gutsy), package size 21 kB, installed size 152 kB
[23:34] <philphoto> hspaans: how to rectify?
[23:35] <oddchild> how do you install that?
[23:35] <Bodsda> oddchild, do you have access to your m8's comp atm?
[23:35] <oddchild> yes
[23:35] <oddchild> right by me
[23:35] <hspaans> philphoto: udev handles your device mappings and module loading including usb
[23:35] <oddchild> he is in windows because it takes so long to get to ubuntu :o
[23:35] <Bodsda> oddchild, first see wheter or not he already has it       locate readahead
[23:35] <oddchild> im getting him to restart to unbuntu
[23:36] <oddchild> how do i do that?
[23:36] <oddchild> under syn pack manager?
[23:36] <philphoto> hspaans: how to fix?
[23:36] <Bodsda> !enter | oddchild
[23:36] <ubotu> oddchild: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[23:36] <CorruptTerrorist> i need to download the geforce 8800gt drivers
[23:36] <Bodsda> oddchild, in the terminal type        locate readahead
[23:36] <Robert125> I'm trying to convince someone ubuntu's besser than Windows, what are really good reasons?
[23:36] <oddchild> okay
[23:36] <JDStone> Robert125: it's Linux
[23:36] <CorruptTerrorist> !nvidia
[23:36] <JDStone> period!
[23:36] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[23:36] <hspaans> philphoto: sudo /etc/init.d/udev start may help
[23:36] <oddchild> how will i know if it is installed?
[23:36] <speeddemon8803> Rober125: its linux, its stable...period.
[23:37] <Odd-rationale> Robert125: You might want to discuss this in #ubuntu-offtopic
[23:37] <Bodsda> Robert125, please dont do that, just show it to them, and let them make up their own mind, dont force ubuntu onto people
[23:37] <daedalus2_> robert125 : not virus prone like windoze.
[23:37] <hspaans> philphoto: but your install may be fubar
[23:37] <Bodsda> but all these points are very true
[23:37] <Bodsda> oddchild, if the       locate readahead            gives any output, then he's already got it
[23:37] <Robert125> ok, thaks for first
[23:38] <karl_> Robert125: it has a penguin mascot instead of a butterfly/window
[23:38] <karl_> that's why i use it
[23:38] <oddchild> okay
[23:38] <leprasmurf> hey all, where are the cd/dvd autoload settings stored for gnome...headless mythbuntu system, autoloads cd/dvd behind the mythtv system
[23:38] <philphoto> hspaans: fail
[23:38]  * Bodsda thinks karl_ has got his priorities spot on
[23:38] <Robert125> He asked me
[23:38] <speeddemon8803> Heh bodsda :)
[23:39] <pliumbum> one more thing: after installing both OS, does grub set itself up automatically?
[23:39] <hspaans> philphoto: get your livecd and do a fresh install, best option if your not a die hard
[23:39] <karl_> puppy linux comes with a puppy wallpaper instead of rolling hills...you could throw that in his face
[23:39] <CTho> when i try to enable compiz with my nforce binary-driver system, window titles flash a few times and then nothing happens
[23:39] <hspaans> philphoto: most likely other things may be fubar as well
[23:39] <CorruptTerrorist> are there drivers for an 8800 gt?
[23:39] <Eyemean> hellow quick question, i might be getting company laptop to use, but wanted to put ubuntu on it, can i do this and then revert it back to original wen i have to return it?
[23:39] <CTho> hmmm, gnome compiz preferences sees the wrong graphics card - it sees my PCIE card rather than the oboard
[23:39] <Bodsda> speeddemon8803, ;~)
[23:39] <philphoto> I just DID this install.  this is fresh one.
[23:40] <philphoto> hspaans: i don't really need that computer up right now, but it's more convenient than using laptop for all work
[23:40] <CorruptTerrorist> how can i increase my resolution to 1680x1050?
[23:41] <karl_> Eyemean: as long as you are confident installing the original OS back on there and installing drivers for the hardware
[23:41] <hspaans> philphoto: then check your logs in /var/log to see more details
[23:41] <Bodsda> Eyemean, only if you either 1. get the cd and registration keys -- 2. keep the original instlation
[23:41] <sudobash> CT you still here?
[23:41] <Flannel> Eyemean: dualboot and then put it back (you'll need to be able to fix the MBR)
[23:41] <karl_> yeah, need to install the keys too
[23:41] <Eyemean> i probably wouldnt be givine original cd, that what i would need to do flannel
[23:41] <karl_> i would just talk with your tech administrator and ask if it is okay
[23:41] <karl_> they might have some kind of policy against it
[23:42] <philphoto> hspaans: in /var/log dir, what to look for?
[23:42] <Eyemean> how would i do that flannel?
[23:42] <Flannel> !dualboot | Eyemean
[23:42] <ubotu> Eyemean: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo - MACs: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookPro https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot
[23:42] <sudobash> MBR can be fixed easily with Super Grub Disk SGD
[23:42]  * Bodsda loves the way linux is used above to fix windows
[23:42] <Flannel> Eyemean: you'll want to backup the MBR (with Smart Boot Manager, perhaps) if you don't have any other method of restoring it
[23:42] <Eyemean> i know how to dual boot flannel, just dont know about fixing the mbr so its the same as wen i got it
[23:43] <karl_> you just overwrite grub with the microsoft bootloader
[23:43] <karl_> in the mbr
[23:43] <Flannel> Eyemean: Smart boot manager (when you boot it from a floppy/whatever) can make a backup of the MBR, and can restore said backup as well
[23:43] <karl_> and then adjust it to point to the original partition
[23:43] <Bodsda> Eyemean, or, you could swap the hard drives, for one of yours, then put theirs back when returning it
[23:43] <Flannel> Eyemean: or, if you have *any* windows disc, you can do it there as well (and there's probably other utilities that do the same)
[23:44] <hspaans> philphoto: check the files in there and look for any error messages, syslog and messages may be a good start
[23:44] <Eyemean> cheers flannel, bodsda, is smart bootmanager free?
[23:44] <Flannel> Eyemean: yep
[23:44] <Eyemean> cheers flannel, i'll probably do that then
[23:44] <CorruptTerrorist> does all software on linux have to be free?
[23:44] <Eyemean> nice one
[23:44] <Flannel> Eyemean: http://sourceforge.net/projects/btmgr/
[23:44] <Flannel> CorruptTerrorist: No
[23:44] <Robert125> Thanks from my friend
[23:45] <Bodsda> Odd-rationale, how long should a 10mb film from flv to 3gp take to convert and get the email from zamzar?
[23:45] <wall1> can anyone give me a good linux version of ssh secure shell client?
[23:45] <Indiadev_Techie>  CorruptTerrorist: not all r free...
[23:45] <CorruptTerrorist> oh ok
[23:45] <karl_> wall1: openssh-client
[23:45] <Bodsda> Eyemean, no probs ;~)
[23:45]  * hspaans sees his timezone suggests its time for some sleep
[23:45] <wall1> is it in the repos?
[23:45] <karl_> yes
[23:45] <Indiadev_Techie>  CorruptTerrorist: but most of them are....FREEE !!! thanx to opensource community....
[23:45] <CorruptTerrorist> heh ok Indiadev_Techie
[23:46] <Odd-rationale> Bodsda: hmm. I would guess around 5 min? Also depends on your internet speed connection.
[23:46] <wall1> ok how do i use it?
[23:46] <oddchild> Hello again, he does not have lookahead
[23:46] <wall1> is it a gui or command line?
[23:46] <Flannel> wall1: ssh [args]
[23:46] <karl_> command line
[23:46] <pidix> how can i show in command line the Ubuntu name version?
[23:46] <Flannel> wall1: ssh is, by definition, command line
[23:46] <Flannel> pidix: lsb_release -a
[23:46] <Bodsda> Odd-rationale, 2mb line - took 5 mins to upload the file though,.,.
[23:46] <pidix> thanks Flannel
[23:47] <karl_> one might argue that putty has a gui
[23:47] <jumbers> Every time my computer's screen is locked, it changes the Wireless connection to a wired connection. I'm using a Dell Inspiron 1420 with Ubuntu preinstalled. Does anybody know if this is a known bug?
[23:47] <oddchild> Hello all, a friend of mine has a compaq nc6000 his computer takes 5 minutes to get into ubuntu. Does any one have any suggestions? I have tried turning off his wifi, removing CD etc... lookahead is not instaled.
[23:47] <Bodsda> oddchild, did you check for readahead?
[23:47] <karl_> oddchild: is his install on an old, slow harddrive?
[23:47] <oddchild> It is a new computer
[23:47] <up_the_irons> anyone know how i can set the X11 background to a .jpeg ? (I'm not running gnome or anything, just wmii, so I need the raw command)
[23:47] <Indiadev_Techie> oddchild: but does he have enuf ram on his pc ???
[23:47] <NB2000> putty gui.  Hmm.  Well sort of...
[23:47] <oddchild> Yep
[23:48] <Odd-rationale> Bodsda: Is it converting right now? I usually doesn't take long for it to end up in your inbox - provided you entered the correct email address.
[23:48] <oddchild> It runs XP normally without any problems. He does not want to use XP but it won' tlet him get into ubuntu that easily
[23:48] <Dingsbumps> Does anyone have a suggestion on how to backup (copy) dvds? k9copy's estimated time is 15 hours, I'm not sure why.
[23:48] <oddchild> It runs normal once he gets into ubuntu, but the boot time is still around 5 minutes
[23:48] <philphoto> hspaans:  time to reinstall.
[23:48] <karl_> up_the_irons: feh might do that for you
[23:48] <hspaans> oddchild: check for process that do dns lookups and are not aware of networkmanager like sendmail and ntp
[23:48] <karl_> up_the_irons: feh comes with aterm, i believe
[23:49] <oddchild> okay
[23:49] <hspaans> philphoto: good luck
[23:49] <Bodsda> Odd-rationale, its been about ten mins since it said the file was uploaded succesfully,. i still have no email
[23:49] <up_the_irons> karl_: ok, i'll check that out thanks
[23:49] <Bodsda> addi is correct
[23:49] <oddchild> vino server is there... i am not sure what that is.
[23:49] <joshritger> can I use an old install of ubuntu on new hardware? or will I have to reinstall. I had hardware failure and was wondering if i put new hardware in such as cpu, mobo and ram if i need to do a clean install?
[23:50] <jlulian38> Is there a way to convert ext3 to FAT32 without destroying all the data? :/
[23:50] <philphoto> hspaans:  after check, the machine is frozen.  restarted X and stuck on login
[23:50] <jlulian38> Or do I have to like back-up/obliterate and format?
[23:50] <oddchild> BTW, thanks hspaans for your help
[23:50]  * Bodsda is confused, he went on holiday for 2 weeks, when he came back, all the questions started getting harder!!
[23:51] <philphoto> hspaans: ouch.
[23:51] <hspaans> jlulian38: back-up and format is your way, sorry
[23:51] <NB2000> Bodsda No More Vacations. :)
[23:51] <hspaans> oddchild: np
[23:51] <philphoto> hspaans:   thx for the help
[23:51] <tego> i cant see now my network MSHOME
[23:51] <Bodsda> NB2000, ~)
[23:51] <hspaans> philphoto: np and good luck
[23:51] <Odd-rationale> Bodsda: Patience. If you want, you can try another online service http://media-convert.net/ This one doesn't requre an email. Instead you download the resulting file from a link provided.
[23:52] <oddchild> hspaans, do I need to install lookahead on his box?
[23:52] <Bodsda> Odd-rationale, i think i got the addi wrong (:-() trying again, but if no joy, then il try that one, thanks m8
[23:52] <CorruptTerrorist> how do you end xserver?
[23:53] <hspaans> oddchild: I don't know and I'm not going to find out (I'm on my way to sleep)
[23:53] <oddchild> hspaans,  thanks, anywho.  . .

[23:57] <Dybber> Why do I need to be root to use the "eject"-command/program? I didn't have to be root on my last installation of Ubuntu.
[23:57] <zero88> Ok, I have installed the .inf file driver for the Wireless Network Drivers, and it says Hardware present: yes. But under networking, it doesnt give me a wireless option. What could i do?
[23:57] <skullmonkey123> when i try to boot up, it gets passed the loading splash screen and then goes to a terminal like command. any help?
[23:57] <Amaranth> LjL; I win ;)
[23:57] <LjL> so you do
[23:57] <DOOM_NX> I got a dual boot system, Ubuntu and WinVista. I got suddenly a BSOD in Vista and then after rebooting it fails to loard windows. I can succesfully load Ubuntu. My NTFS partitions though have disappeared... What can I do to enable them? i got important data from 6 years pc use...
[23:58] <zero88> DOOM_NX have you check the grub file
[23:58] <jarrettgreen_> I've got a IP/Domain/DNS question. I have a dapper box up and running. I use a hosting company, and have say example.com. I have made it so my static IP points to port 80 on my dapper box. Works great. But I'd like instead of typing in the IP, or forwarding dev.example.com to the IP, to actually have the domain registered on the box. Is it possible to do this? I have bind9 running, but don't really understand it.
[23:58] <murdoc_> boas
[23:58] <DOOM_NX> zero88, what do u mean?
[23:58] <danand> sarthor - I think port 137 is the port used for samba server - wait one an i'll double check
[23:58] <murdoc_> i need help to install amsn
[23:58] <Odd-rationale> DOOM_NX: Hmm. Try a livecd and see if the partitions are available there
[23:59] <DG19075> DOOM_NX, check grub.lst
[23:59] <DOOM_NX> Odd-rationale, i can see the drives through fdisk -l but i can't mount any partition
[23:59] <zero88> DOOM_NX when your computer boots up , grub is what is loaded and gives you the options for what to boot into. If the windows boot option was erased from there, then it wouldnt show up as an option at boot up
[23:59] <Odd-rationale> DOOM_NX: Have you tried the mount command?
[23:59] <DOOM_NX> DG19075, vista and ubuntu can be selected in grub but as vista is loadin, i get a restart
[23:59] <skullmonkey123> when i try to boot up, it gets passed the loading splash screen and then goes to a terminal like command. any help?
