[06:46] <PureEvilGeek> for instance and admin can right click go to properties and change permissions after a few prompts:)
[06:46] <muzik> LOL
[06:46] <muzik> thanks for that analysis SuperLag
[06:46] <PureEvilGeek> superdachs: no. i'm just a user who doesn't have an agenda against one OS or another and am realistic
[06:46] <ArmedKing> PureEvilGeek: Vista is the best thing that ever happend to Linux ;-)
[06:46] <muzik> LOL
[06:46] <PureEvilGeek> ha
[06:46] <muzik> i like that 1
[06:47] <PureEvilGeek> ArmedKing: ok how so? more users using ubuntu? can't be elite then if every one uses it;)
[06:47] <SuperLag> PureEvilGeek: Vista is a fucking joke.
[06:47] <muzik> anyone of you know Chris Pirlillo? he used to work for micrsoft, google Chris, he is the first result, even he uninstalled Vista.

[06:47] <ubotu> SuperLag: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:47] <SuperLag> PureEvilGeek: it wasn't ready. XP still rules the roost.
[06:47] <npnufn> is there any possibility to view the internal functions of firefox like I can see the xul with chrome://
[06:47] <PureEvilGeek> SuperLag: far from it, but i don't want to get into a conversation with some one who wants nothing more then to fight
[06:47] <ArmedKing> I have to be Honnest tho, I cant go without Vista because i play World of Warcraft and my Zboard is not sopported in Linux, Compromise is XP but that doesnt work with my 4 Cores so i kindof pushed in using it
[06:48] <kitche> npnufn: about:config but what do you mean internal functions?
[06:48] <harmattan> dystopianray: my video cards are very old S3 ones and an integrated VIA
[06:48] <SuperLag> PureEvilGeek: no fighting here.

[06:48] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:48] <cox377> does anyone know the command off the top of there head to make the access of a folder to anyone?
[06:48] <dystopianray> harmattan: don't expect any 3d with those cards
[06:48] <dystopianray> cox377: what sort of access? read, write, execute?
[06:48] <PureEvilGeek> ArmedKing: i think sp1 will really help vista out with the few "bugs" most of us notice. a lot of improvements are going into the GUI from what i hear
[06:48] <muzik> 0777 isnt it?
[06:48] <harmattan> Yeah, I know. Just curious about 21st century hardware  :-D
[06:48] <npnufn> I would like to see the function internalopen code which is invoked on opening a url.
[06:48] <SuperLag> cox377: chmod -R 777 foldername/ <-- that will recurse and make all contents r/w
[06:49] <muzik> ftp ftw
[06:49] <ArmedKing> PureEvilGeek: Few Bugs man i can run more games in Linux Using wine then i can in Vista LOL
[06:49] <tester123> hi can i vsync opengl video play for playing movies with the opengl video driver in mplayer and such...
[06:49] <muzik> ditto ArmedKing
[06:49] <tester123> ?
[06:49] <PureEvilGeek> i want to be able to easily play wow on linux. blizzard should build it into a virtual app and package it, should only be 20gb when done:)
[06:49] <bezibaerchen> my vista works better than my xp :-)
[06:49] <tester123> yea right bezi
[06:49] <tester123> haha
[06:49] <tester123> thats funny
[06:49] <muzik> only when its turned off
[06:49] <tester123> lol
[06:49] <SuperLag> haha
[06:49] <JonaTh> lol
[06:50] <Shin_Gouki> genii, its kinda hard isn't it?
[06:50] <dystopianray> tester123: what video card do you have?
[06:50] <PureEvilGeek> oh i forgot what i was going to do with this fbsd install now lol
[06:50] <tester123> ati x850
[06:50] <cox377> SuperLag: cheers superlag
[06:50] <muzik> ..lol
[06:50] <harmattan> Anyway I only like free modules. I have no intention of running anything with proprietary stuff (much less, W$ bad-vista)
[06:50] <ArmedKing> PureEvilGeek: Agree i think WoW can easaly be build for Linux, Did you know you can get banned for running wow with wine because you run 3d party app haha
[06:50] <tester123> my xvideo looks really low res when playing movies. like its half the quality compaired to when i select opengl in mplayer.
[06:51] <dystopianray> tester123: if your'e using fglrx it's control panel might have a vsync option
[06:51] <tester123> but opengl is not vsync.
[06:51] <npnufn> kitche; do you know how to hide an extension like adblock from it's visibility.
[06:51] <PureEvilGeek> ArmedKing: its because the "third party testing program" *don't know what else to call it* can't run in wine correctly i think
[06:51] <tester123> i tried that but it looked like it was for 3d stuff
[06:51] <cox377> SuperLag: i ge this msg
[06:51] <kitche> npnufn: adblock plus I know has a show visiblilty option in it's options not so sure about adblock though
[06:51] <cox377> SuperLag: -bash: cd: chmod: No such file or directory
[06:51] <PureEvilGeek> but i know a few people that know how to get around it
[06:52] <muzik> o.o
[06:52] <npnufn> kitche; does adblock plus provide any additional functionality compared to adblock, if so what are they?
[06:52] <muzik> chmod --help
[06:52] <genii> Shin_Gouki: Because that web site is trying to play within the page with  an embedded Windows media player or Realaudio player.
[06:52] <muzik> do that
[06:52] <ArmedKing> PureEvilGeek: Well wow runs nice with wine i say nice as in Not great, I get about 20 fps in Linux but get 60fps in Windows
[06:52] <kitche> npnufn: subscriptions from what I can see
[06:52] <tester123> actually i think the entire desktop should be vsyncable.  all these tairing in moving windows is has no reason for it.
[06:53] <Shin_Gouki> genii, u can choose external palyer but still i get a redirect url which kinda doesnt work for me :/
[06:53] <npnufn> kitche; thanks for the support.
[06:53] <rothchild> Hi I'm trying to upgrade gutsy but I keep getting a segmentation fault that seems to be crashing apt or dpkg, it's stuck with the application EOG, can anyone help get it sorted?
[06:53] <kitche> !gutsy | rothchild
[06:53] <ubotu> rothchild: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[06:53] <PureEvilGeek> ArmedKing: lol youa re making me want my new ram for my main system (vista). so i can play
[06:54] <npnufn> kitche; I need some info about adblock; does it provide blocking service based on the content mime type.
[06:54] <rothchild> sure, sorry guys! /coat
[06:54] <genii> Shin_Gouki: By "external player" there they mean play in a separate browser window, but still in that one they are trying to embed specifically the windows media player or RealAudio player into it
[06:54] <npnufn> or is there any other extension provides this service.
[06:54] <ArmedKing> PureEvilGeek: How mutch ram you got now?
[06:54] <dystopianray> tester123: if you use compiz/beryl and your driver supports it you can have a whole desktop vsync
[06:54] <muzik> cox377: any luck?
, i dont get it so its really impossible to play on linux?!
[06:54] <cox377> muzik: yeh i think so mate, i had cd instead of just sudo chmod

[06:55] <lorenz> hi guys, I have a question - how do I access the folder where I find the data from exaile
[06:55] <PureEvilGeek> ArmedKing: lol got to love firefox, 100mb of my ram is used by that
[06:55] <kitche> npnufn: umm think so I m not very good with the insides of adblock plus sicne I just set the subscriptions and that's it
[06:55] <tester123> if i use compix/beryl . can i still play 3d games?
[06:55] <ArmedKing> PureEvilGeek: Nice that shoul;d fix a lot. I got 4gig now and vista eats it anyway
[06:55] <juanhuevos> ay algien

[06:57] <digitalspaghetti> Hi there, bit of an odd question - Does anyone know an application on Ubuntu that lets you create Enhanced CD's (i.e Audio tracks + MPEG 1 videos), I think it's called "Blue Book"
[06:57] <dystopianray> tester123: detecting 3d applications is likely non-trivial
[06:57] <muzik> cox377: either PM me the link or say in here so i can have a look, i have some proxies i ahve installed i think 1 was cgi
[06:57] <antodona> wello
[06:57] <springs> i have question about possibly installing ubuntu on the windows vista 'data' drive and then making it active....has anyone done this before...please pm
[06:58] <genii> Shin_Gouki: Go into a command prompt in the same directory the .bin file is. Then do: sudo chmod +x filename.bin          to make it executable. Then run it by: gksudo filename.bin   (gksudo because it has a graphical installer)
[06:58] <tester123> if you cant play 3d games. it makes the pc handicap
[06:58] <tester123> or would they work ok side by side.. on a fast pc?

[07:03] <Shapeshifter> I have a question. I wrote a small script that converts all images in a folder to a particular size and format, and puts them into another folder. I would now like to add a dialog at the beginning asking if it should proceed. I did this:
[07:03] <Shapeshifter> zenity --question --title="File conversion" --text "Begin?"; echo $?
[07:03] <Shapeshifter> if [ $? != 0 ]  ; then
[07:03] <Shapeshifter> cd /home/_myusername_/Images/DSC/Batch_1st
[07:03] <cox377> muzik: is it on the repos?

[07:03] <Shapeshifter> do
[07:03] <Shapeshifter> The problem is: The dialog shows up correctly but it doesn't matter what I click, it always goes on ignoring the 1/0 value. Why?
[07:03] <muzik> cox377: i'll get you a link, as its online, you drag and drop it into your webfolder, extract and its working
[07:03] <Shapeshifter> after "do" it goes on of course

[07:04] <ffighter> where are the fonts kept in ubuntu ?
[07:05] <dystopianray> ffighter: /usr/share/fonts/

[07:05] <rowdy> i am only seeing boxes for text when i run the live cd
[07:05] <luisa> is kubuntu the same as ubuntu (works the same way, I mean) but the only diference is that it uses KDE?
[07:05] <tester123> sandy can you connect to another page when using an ip instead of an url
[07:05] <dystopianray> luisa: that's right

[07:06] <Dr_willis> Shapeshifter,  im not sure that your if []  thing is correct. Id double check the advanced bash scripting guide on conditionals.
[07:06] <Dr_willis> Shapeshifter,  plus theres no end to your if stuff either.
[07:07] <ffighter> I assume I don't need to copy these fonts to wine's windows/fonts... symlinks would do, or not?

[07:12] <dystopianray> sandy: go to #ubuntu+1 this channel is NOT gutsy support
[07:12] <erUSUL> luisa: maybe you need to wenable something in System>Preferences>Accesability
[07:13] <sandy> j

[07:13] <Shapeshifter> Hi, can anyone tell me why this script always proceeds instead of exiting if the returned value is 1? http://pastebin.com/m7f0dbf68 The convert part works great, but I can't influence if it's happening or not.
[07:14] <Shin_Gouki> genii thx a lot! sad that installing programms still is that hard :/
[07:14] <stefg> muzik: great idea! :-)
[07:14] <erUSUL> Leon_home: you should use gparted from a livecd becouse it can not work with disks that have mounted filesystems
 what you want
[07:14] <muzik> i would do it myself, but i have bad experiances in running my own scripts to help others :]
 For gusty there is no emerald
[07:14] <magnetron> kidbuntu: join #ubuntu-effects
[07:15] <Leon_home> erUSUL: from where i can get live cd ?
[07:15] <genii> Shin_Gouki: Because RealAudio is not open source, it cannot of course be provided with Linux :(
[07:15] <dystopianray> Shadow6363: is the 'echo' call changing the value of $? ?
[07:15] <kidbuntu> sandy: i just installed beryl. i'm trying to fix my window borders. theres no close, minimize and maximize
[07:15] <sinizzl> hi

[07:15] <magnetron> sandy: stop talking about gutsy in this channel please!!!
[07:15] <sinizzl> that ubuntu sucks and debian rules?
[07:15] <erUSUL> Leon_home: the default desktop instalation cd of ubuntu is a livecd
[07:15] <Shin_Gouki> genii, yes they made the "helix" palyer that for right? but that doenst work with the side so its kidna useles...
[07:15] <sinizzl> i was told ubuntu was actually n00b00nt00, a linux geared towards n00bs to make them feel 1337. is that true ?
[07:16] <sooth> sinizzl: No
[07:16] <erUSUL> sinizzl: stop trolling
 you can try apt-get install
[07:16] <luisa> No!
[07:16] <sinizzl> im not trolling
[07:16] <kidbuntu> sandy: apt-get install emerald?
[07:16] <sluimers> Hi there, could someone help me with my printer? It's a canon smartbase mp360 and doesn't perfectly work since I have Ubuntu instead of windows. The colours are off. I's like hardly any colour is used. I use bj8pa06n.upp as the driver recommended on linuxprinting.org.
[07:16] <dystopianray> don't feed the troll
[07:16] <sinizzl> i was just asking a question
[07:16] <erUSUL> sinizzl: yes you are
[07:16] <magnetron> !support | sinizzl
[07:16] <sinizzl> no i'm not
[07:16] <ubotu> sinizzl: the official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Also see http://ubuntu.com/support and http://ubuntuforums.org

[07:19] <smutje> pici thx
[07:19] <kazim59> firefox hangs itself too much these days... right now its not-responding

[07:19] <Recoding> recoding is my business :/ typical hmm
[07:19] <smutje> pici i wanna install opera

[07:20] <Hex_101> phew
[07:20] <smutje> can i use only one inetbrowser ?
[07:20] <Dr_willis> Hmm.. i cant say that i ever have issues with opera or firefox
[07:20] <ffighter> I've got a NTFS logical partition that I would like to delete and give its space to my main ubuntu partition
[07:20] <unimatrix9> smutje : as many as you like
[07:20] <ffighter> how could I do that?
[07:20] <stefg> kazim59: try a fresh profile and do not install every single ber-kewl extension you stumble upon
[07:20] <ffighter> Boot up with Partition Magic or something?
[07:20] <Dr_willis> ffighter,  live cd and gparted would be how ive done it in the past
[07:20] <Dr_willis> ffighter,  #*@* partition magic. :)
[07:20] <Shapeshifter> Hi, can anyone tell me why this script always proceeds instead of exiting if the returned value is 1? http://pastebin.com/m7f0dbf68 The convert part works great, but I can't influence if it's happening or not.
[07:21] <ffighter> Dr_willis, The ubuntu live cd?
[07:21] <unimatrix9> hirens bootcd ...
[07:21] <kazim59> stefg: I've two extensions that I must use.. none others are installed... Web Developer's toolbar & firebug....
[07:21] <Kagee> ffighter: or you could install gparted in ubuntu
[07:21] <Dr_willis> theres a gparted-livecd out thats a 'must have' for your toolbox. ubuntu's live cd also has gparted.
[07:21] <kazim59> stefg: I feel its flash that hangs it
[07:21] <Dr_willis> The gpartedlivecd boots a bit faster and has some other system fix tools also.
[07:21] <garette> hello all i wanted to install something and my repos are down.. i tried to put an alternate mirror but that didn't help, every thing is ultimately directed to main mirror and the main mirror is down, how on earth could i install?? its immediate
[07:21] <Hex_101> Dr_willis too right, its on one of those wallet sized discs in my wallet :D
[07:21] <unimatrix9> http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[07:21] <Dr_willis> Hex_101,  Bingo.
[07:21] <genii> Shin_Gouki: np
[07:21] <unimatrix9> there you go
[07:21] <Hex_101> Dr_willis: although the college told me off :/
[07:22] <Dr_willis> Theres also a system-rescue live cd thats worth grabbing.. and some supergrub livecd :)
[07:22] <unimatrix9> alway's backup before making partitions
[07:22] <Dr_willis> Hex_101,  Claim its your freddom of speech! :)
[07:22] <ffighter> Ok, thank you
[07:22] <stefg> kazim59: ok, that's reasonable... but try a fresh profile nonetheless.
[07:22] <sooth> My sound sometimes dies on me after a resume from suspend. Anybody can give me tips on debugging it? (Please don't !sound me)
[07:22] <Hex_101> lol.
[07:23] <Hex_101> Dr_willis: im muzik, remember the problem i was having, making my ubuntu go to twinview?
[07:23] <unimatrix9> sooth : restart alsa?
[07:23] <Dr_willis> Hex_101,  yea. :)
[07:23] <arang2> anyone alive here? could someone tell me how to acess a windows network using thunar or from Xubuntu?
[07:23] <garette> Dr_willis,  hello all i wanted to install something and my repos are down.. i tried to put an alternate mirror but that didn't help, every thing is ultimately directed to main mirror and the main mirror is down, how on earth could i install?? its immediate
[07:23] <Dr_willis> arang2,  use some of the samba/smb/browser tools out.
[07:23] <Dr_willis> arang2,  no idea what thundar has. but xfce had a xfsamba tool at one time
[07:23] <arang2> Dr_willis: do u recommend somethin?
[07:23] <Hex_101> Dr_willis: well i got it all updated and stuff, and i ran the nvidia-settings, and set the dualscreen up, but when i enable it, the top half of both screens is missing, and the bottom half is random blocks of the gui
[07:24] <Dr_willis> arang2,  i use the fuse-smb stuff now  a days
[07:24] <stefg> arang2: #xubuntu .... i use fusesmb to mount my samba shares, so thunar sees it as an ordianry dir
[07:24] <Dr_willis> Hex_101,  heh sounds like some odd driver/memory/issue.
[07:24] <Shapeshifter> Hex_101: is the mouse cursor still visible if you hover over the missing parts?
[07:24] <Hex_101> ...thats just pointless it works now
[07:24] <Hex_101> it wasnt when i tried it no
[07:24] <arang2> Dr_willis : thanks
[07:24] <genii> bottiger: It occurs to me to look up apt.conf (I think it has a manpage). There is also some example with all settings, i am pretty sure now that is how i set specifically the apt-get settings.
[07:25] <Hex_101> thanks for your help Dr_willis, Shapeshifter & dystopianray
[07:25] <Leon_home> in the terminal how can i know how much free space left on my hdd ?
[07:25] <luisa> fd -h
[07:25] <luisa> oops
[07:25] <luisa> df -h
[07:25] <Dr_willis> Hex_101,  it started working?
[07:25] <dystopianray> Leon_home: df -h
[07:25] <Shapeshifter> Hex_101: had the same proble, but I don't know how I solved it. I guess I just took a very old xorg.conf and reverted all the nvidia-config settings to defualt, and the used it to configure
[07:25] <stefg> arang2: http://swik.net/Xubuntu+samba
[07:25] <Hex_101> its working, just going to test it on a reeboot
[07:25] <Dr_willis> df -h -x tmpfs -x devpts -x usbfs
[07:25] <dystopianray> Leon_home: if you give it a path it'll tell you the free space on the aprtition mounted at the path
[07:25] <Dr_willis> is my ULTIMATE 'show disk space' alioas :)
[07:26] <Dr_willis> alias ShowDisk='df -h -x tmpfs -x devpts -x usbfs'

[07:26] <Hex_101> i rly do like the window-wobble thingy hehe.
[07:26] <kazim59> stefg: easier solution--- pkill firefox
[07:26] <Dr_willis> Hex_101,  you are a sick puppy.
[07:26] <Hex_101> =}
[07:27] <sooth> Is there a way to manually re-initialize my soundcard after a suspend?
[07:27] <savetheWorld> SuperLag: yo?
[07:27] <erUSUL> sooth: maybe a rmmod of the sound modules and modprobing them again works
[07:27] <arang2> stefg: thanks
[07:27] <dystopianray> sooth: unload the driver before suspend, load after suspend
[07:28] <zzxc> I need to do an advanced installation of Ubuntu on a server I don't have physical access to.  Would copying the squashfs filesystem from the live CD to a partition on the hard drive, and using chroot to test the environment, be sufficient for installation?
[07:28] <zzxc> (is there an FAQ for doing this?  I've done it with other non-Debian distributions)
[07:29] <stefg> !install
[07:29] <ubotu> 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
[07:29] <stefg> zzxc: that's a risky project...
[07:29] <Dr_willis> sounds scary to me.
[07:30] <Hex_101> Dr_willis: i restarted, and i only got 1 screen again, anyway i can get it to save so that it does 2 screens?
[07:30] <SuperLag> savetheWorld: more sed-fu? :) how would I take any "@" and make it have only one space on either side of it? (remove more whitespace). I tried the TAB char, like you said... but my results were... shall I say abnormal? :)
[07:31] <savetheWorld> SuperLag: do you mean a literal @ character?
[07:31] <kidbuntu> !compiz

[07:31] <SuperLag> savetheWorld: I do.
[07:31] <sooth> erUSUL: Can't seem to unload it. Complains it is in use
[07:32] <savetheWorld> sed -e 's/[\s] *@[\s] */@/g' -e 's/@/ @ /'
[07:32] <Hex_101> Dr_willis: ahh i didnt run sudo, it couldnt save the X file, my bad
[07:32] <rafaelscj> hello, where is the firefox's cache folder?
[07:33] <sooth> dystopianray: It doesn't occur after every suspend (relatively rarely actually). Anyway, I'm post-resume right now. Trying to fix the problem.
[07:33] <erUSUL> sooth: :(
[07:33] <dystopianray> savetheWorld: why not just: sed -e 's/[\s] *@[\s] */ @ /g' ?
[07:33] <rowdy> i am only seeing boxes for text when i run the live cd
[07:33] <rowdy> and after i installed using safe graphics mode...i installed successfully...but after i reboot the text doesnt appear on the login screen
[07:33] <kalchas> hello! it seems I have messed up my gdm on my other pc (gutsy amd64). how can I find out what's wrong and how can I fix it? when I try to login I get this message: "the greeter application has crashed: attempting to use a different one" I never get a new gdm login though
[07:33] <erUSUL> !gutsy | kalchas
[07:33] <slavik> I am trying to build a module with changed source, but after module-assistant fails to build it, it undoes my changes ...
[07:33] <ubotu> kalchas: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[07:34] <pawdro> hello, i've got a problem with testing my laptop webcam, camorame takes pictures correctly, but whenever i want to try camera in mplayer i get: error parsing option on the command line" -tv. Whats wrong?
[07:34] <sooth> rafaelscj: ~/.mozilla/firefox/SOMETHING.default/Cache
[07:34] <savetheWorld> dystopianray: that'll do.  but for people with less experience I like to do single steps so that what happens is clear.
[07:35] <savetheWorld> interstingly in testsing the \s didn't work, so   sed -e 's/[[:space:] ] *@[[:space:] ] */@/g' -e 's/@/ @ /'
[07:35] <rziegler> rpm -qf /to/what/pkg/does/this/file/belong ....  what is the apt equiviletn?  I am brand new to Ubunto after a decade on rpm based distro
[07:35] <rowdy> i am only seeing boxes for text when i run the live cd
[07:35] <savetheWorld> or it can be merged into one step like dystopianray does.
[07:35] <dystopianray> savetheWorld: the \ probably needs to be escaped: \\s
 could you tell me what you would do on feisty and let me see if it will apply?
[07:36] <savetheWorld> dystopianray: there is NO escape!  :-)
[07:36] <sooth> rziegler: dpkg -S
[07:36] <rafaelscj> sooth, why aren't there too many files?
[07:36] <LjL> !netsplit
[07:36] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[07:37] <rziegler> sooth: thanks
[07:37] <sooth> rafaelscj: I have 190 files currently
[07:37] <LjL> !netsplit
[07:37] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[07:37] <dystopianray> savetheWorld: this works for me: sed -e "s/\\s*@\\s*/ @ /g"
[07:38] <erUSUL> kalchas: it seems that gdm *crashed* so maybe it's just buggy software and there is nothing you can do. the gdm configuration is in /etc/gdm/ but i take that you didn't messed there...
[07:38] <Hex_101> anyone still alive?
[07:38] <rafaelscj> sooth, thank you
[07:38] <savetheWorld> dystopianray: I jus ttold you!  there is NO escape!  :        You caused a netsplit!
[07:38] <rowdy> i am only seeing boxes for text when i run the live cd
[07:38] <dystopianray> hehe
[07:38] <Hex_101> there we go
[07:38] <Hex_101> right
[07:38] <Hex_101> where was i
[07:38] <ConstyXIV> Hex_101: yeah, it was just a netsplit
[07:38] <nonoerruei> i installed apache i would like to upload my web files to the apache where is the directory ?
[07:38] <kalchas> erUSUL: I installed a new gdm theme
[07:38] <Hex_101> ah yea Dr_willis you there?
[07:38] <Hex_101> ConstyXIV yea we get them alot on the other server
[07:38] <flush> yo
[07:39] <dystopianray> nonoerruei: /var/www is the default
[07:39] <rataplan> hello
[07:39] <flush> how do i add a scanner on ubuntu ?
[07:39] <kalchas> erUSUL: but it seemed stable enough, I restarted X couple of times without any problems, and then ....
[07:39] <Dr_willis> Hex_101,  Huh? :)
[07:39] <Hex_101> lol
[07:39] <Hex_101> [06:36]  <Hex_101> hmm by doing that nvidia-settings thingy, its american-fied my keyboard o.O
[07:39] <Hex_101> [06:36]  <Hex_101> and my mouse dont work any more :D
[07:39] <kalchas> what if purged ubuntu-desktop from a terminal login and then re-installed it? what problems might that cause?
[07:40] <rafaelscj> sooth, doesn't firefox copy any file there? so there would be too many files
[07:40] <kalchas> or what if I purged just the package that handles gdm login and reinstalled?
[07:40] <Dr_willis> Hex_101,  check your old xorg.conf and new. and see what keymap/board settings it was using befor and change them back i guess. ;)
[07:41] <Hex_101> i cant get into terminal
[07:41] <Hex_101> CtrlAltF1 gives me nothing
[07:41] <Hex_101> CtrlAltBackspace, same does nothing
[07:41] <rataplan> i was downloading a file with         sftp<EMAIL_ADDRESS>:/home/user/file.tar.gz  file.tar.gz
[07:42] <rataplan> but disconnected
[07:42] <sooth> rafaelscj: Firefox stores files there. I have almost 200 files there at the moment. What are you looking for?
[07:42] <rataplan> how can i continue the file ?
[07:42] <Dr_willis> Hex_101,  you dident manually back it up eh? :) i bet you will in the future. it should of made a dated backup copy in /etc/X11 somewhere
[07:42] <Hex_101> kk back to terminal boot it is
[07:43] <kevinl> is the kernel configuration for the feisty livecd the exact same as the kernel configuration for the system when it is installed
[07:43] <kevinl> aside from the initramfs, which has different scripts in it

[07:50] <Henrik1> Hi, I am trying to follow the instructions here http://www.inet.no/dante/FAQ/node15.html for for globally sockifying my machine, but libdsocks.so appears not to be installed with dante_client ?
[07:50] <Dr_willis> ffighter,  i doubt it.  twinview sort of makes the system think it has one HUGE monitor.
[07:50] <Henrik1> is there another (ubuntu offical) way to do that ?
[07:50] <visof_> can i make the menus  transparent in ubuntu , if ya how?
[07:50] <stdin> kidbuntu: you can just (re)move "/var/lib/dpkg/available" and run "sudo apt-get update"
[07:50] <ffighter> Dr_willis, So, what would be the other way?
[07:50] <Dr_willis> ffighter,  at least ive never seen it done. :) some window managers might be able to do it.
[07:50] <LjL> Henrik1: i don't think there's any "official" way at all

[07:53] <evilofisho> I've got a problem,  I've got a bunch of japanese zips.. Those files have files with japanese names inside of them, now the problem seems to be that the unzipped doesn't seem to be able to read those ones so I can't extract them.. What to do ? D:

[07:53] <LjL> Henrik1: apt-file search libdsocks returns libdsocksd.so.0 and libdsocksd.so.0.1.0 for dante-client

[08:22] <Pici> !envy
[08:22] <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!
[08:22] <coni_> can someone help me out please.. I am having an issue with modules dissappearing
[08:22] <swiftnomad> for(i=0; z0r[i+8]  != ':' ;i++)
[08:23] <dbrewer_rjr> c# and asp.net a bill gates'ian' languages. While i have nothing against him personally, i am sick to death of buying the same chit over and over again every time he releases the next version of it. I do not play in the microsoft sandbox.

[08:23] <wam> When a source-code package has a "debian" subdir, how do I best make a .deb out of it?
[08:23] <Jack_Sparrow> marx2k_: That script may have worked you you.  But we dont need you creating mork work by pimping it out to others
[08:23] <DexterF> hi
[08:24] <coni_> hexoroid: try reastarting metacity
[08:24] <mariotinoco> what configuration file determines start-up applications for a session?
[08:24] <erUSUL> coni_: only using sudo you can erase files under /lib/modules/ what do you mean by dissapearing? what do you do to recover them?
[08:24] <dbrewer_rjr> this is why i think ubuntu totally rules!!! It puts the free software foundation in a position to challenge windows for the first time
[08:24] <DexterF> issue with xfe file manager here: eventually it will complain that "mount point /dev/shm/var.run doesn't respond"
[08:24] <swiftnomad> hex_101, do you have compiz?
[08:24] <Hex_101> o.O
[08:24] <Hex_101> say wha?
[08:24] <Hex_101> thats a no officer
[08:24] <coni_> erUSUL: ok, whenever I reboot I lose the /lib/modules/2.6.20-16generic/kernel/sound directory
[08:25] <coni_> erUSUL: If I reinstall the linux image I get the modules back
[08:25] <dystopianray> coni_: it's a ramdisk
[08:25] <munsco95> question: can ubuntu be used efficiently as a network router OS?  I want to turn a box into a router, but am searching for the right OS to do it on.
[08:25] <dystopianray> coni_: actually it's not, ignore me
[08:25] <coni_> odyst: /lib/modules/... is?
[08:26] <coni_> it feels like it is
[08:26] <dystopianray> coni_: /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/volatile is a ramdisk
[08:26] <coni_> yeah this is /kernel and it keeps dissappearing
[08:26] <dbrewer_rjr> USMarine: semper fi
[08:26] <coni_> well /kernel/sound/
[08:27] <ffighter> Can I assign a shortcut key to the show desktop button on gnome?
[08:27] <erUSUL> coni_: some script is deleting them.. that's the only posible explanation...
[08:27] <riksta> i've just upgraded all the packages on gutsy and dpkg is segfaulting....anyone else?
[08:27] <erUSUL> coni_: do you remember editting any boot script?
[08:27] <ffighter> Is that possible?
[08:28] <coni_> erUSUL: no I have edited boot scripts but not to wipe out any files
[08:28] <Hex_101> k i need some help..somehow, basicly i do not get the top bar on any applications, i have just recently updated with nvidia-settings toinclude 2 screens, but i cannot see any close, or i cannot move any windows, help anyone? update: i can press alt and move windows, and close them from the context menus, but i can resize, or use the terminal [no text comes up to run]
[08:28] <Hex_101> *cant
[08:28] <kane> hi there.. my X froze. can I restore it somehow? the mouse moves but I cannot click anywhere...
[08:28] <erUSUL> coni_: any cron job or something like that?

[08:28] <pequatre> hello
[08:28] <Hex_101> kane: try Ctrl + Alt + backspace
[08:29] <Hex_101> that restarts X
[08:29] <BlkGhost> I partitioned my second drive and it won't let me copy any data from one drive to the next  ????
[08:29] <coni_> I really do not want to have to reinstall
[08:29] <kane> Hex_101 I mean without restarting it.. I was writing my blogpost and I spent lot of time and I didn't save...
[08:30] <Hex_101> hmm
[08:30] <coni_> ermac0: is there a way to force ubuntu to return the "system" to a base configuration?
[08:30] <flateric> hi all, some german speaking inside?

[08:31] <coni_> ermac0: unless its executing as root
[08:31] <pdonne3> told me to run fsck manually
[08:31] <coni_> ermac0: I will try that
[08:31] <coni_> erUSUL: I will try that
[08:31] <pdonne3> did so on read only file system
[08:31] <erUSUL> pdonne3: just do that... bot from a liveCD and run fsck on the filesystem
[08:32] <pdonne3> going through 1000s of multiply clamied block checks
[08:32] <pdonne3> any
[08:32] <pdonne3> way to bail from fsck in the middle without destryoing my files?

[08:34] <dfletcher> help, please! I seem to have accidentally locked myself out of root with `sudo /usr/sbin/usermod -G cvs fletch`.. is there any way to get my sudoers perm back?!
[08:34] <pequatre> hi. does anyone know how to specify a working directory to an app, i.e. when i launch "kchmviewer" (for instance), i'd like that when i go to "open file...", the default directory would be "/home/me/my_books/". Is it possible ? thx.
[08:35] <dfletcher> I *knew* I should have done sudo su and set a root pw :/
[08:35] <velko> dfletcher: from the livecd or from another linux install on the same disk you can do whatever you want
[08:35] <adrian> Hi, does anyone here know of any other good windows Emulator than Wine?
[08:35] <dfletcher> velko, ack, the machine is in a hosting facility
[08:35] <jl> hi everybody!
[08:35] <erUSUL> pdonne3: i do not know but i will not do it...
[08:36] <dystopianray> adrian: apart from virtualisation and reactos there isn't any
[08:36] <sluimers> Hi there, could someone help me with my printer? It's a canon smartbase mp360 and doesn't perfectly work since I have Ubuntu instead of windows. The colours are off. I's like hardly any colour is used. I use bj8pa06n.upp as the driver recommended on linuxprinting.org.
[08:36] <dfletcher> hmm well I'll just make my cvs root in my home directory for now ;)
[08:36] <morydd_lap> Can someone point me to a tutorial on accessing data on the Vista partition on a dual-boot laptop
[08:36] <adrian> dystopianray where can i get those?
[08:36] <young-man> hello people i wanna ask what to do. i installed ubuntu server and i write startx and nothing goes on.. no graphic interface.. help me please
[08:36] <dazrour> hi
[08:37] <sebastian> dfletcher: if you have the sudo password, can't you just do sudo usermod +G cvs fletch ?
[08:37] <dystopianray> adrian: reactos is a standalone OS, virtualisation includes qemu, vmware, xen, etc... to run a virtualised windows
[08:37] <dystopianray> !ntfs | morydd_lap
[08:37] <ubotu> morydd_lap: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[08:37] <dfletcher> sebastian, that attempt to change groups seems to have completely locked me out of sudoers
[08:37] <snoopy__> young-man, the server does not install gnome or kde
[08:37] <DrthHmstr> hey
[08:38] <snoopy__> young-man, you can apt get it
[08:38] <dazrour> i have trailed the forums to no avail - can anyone help me reduce my cpu fan speed without using the bios
[08:38] <morydd_lap> !ntfs-3g
[08:38] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[08:38] <erUSUL> dfletcher: you should have used 'useradd <user> group' ....
[08:38] <young-man> please give me a command man
[08:38] <Discerer> asking again: so I run the ubuntu installation CD, and when it's booting up ubuntu to install it it gets stuck saying "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off" and I'm in an ash shell that says (initramfs). what to do?
[08:38] <dfletcher> erUSUL, shoulda doesn't put food on the table! ;D
[08:38] <young-man> and where to get a cd or smhng to install that stuff
[08:38] <DrthHmstr> I'll think about it
[08:38] <dystopianray> young-man: why do you want a gui on ubuntu server?
[08:38] <lamzaks>  I hawe one question about ubuntu server eddition
[08:39] <dazrour> i have trailed the forums to no avail - can anyone help me reduce my cpu fan speed without using the bios
[08:39] <erUSUL> dfletcher: when you use -G with usermod you are added to the listed groups and *deleted* from any other so you deleted yourself from the admin group which is wha t granted you the hability to use sudo
[08:39] <young-man> because i need a internet gateway server for network but im lame on linux commands :(
[08:39] <dfletcher> yeah erUSUL I realized that after I got locked out ;) I needed to specify the whole list, or use the version you mentioned before
[08:39] <kane77> can theme cause freezes? like you cannot click on anything?
[08:40] <erUSUL> dfletcher: so you only have to find a way to add your user back to the admin group
[08:40] <dazrour> Can anyone help me reduce my cpu fan speed without using the bios?
[08:40] <snoopy__> young-man, i think its apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[08:41] <young-man> so is it possible to start some graphic interface on server version of ubuntu?
[08:41] <dystopianray> young-man: yes of course
[08:41] <snoopy__> young-man, see this thread
[08:41] <MasterShrek> young-man, you need to install it though i believe
[08:41] <snoopy__> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-186298.html
[08:41] <erUSUL> dfletcher: without physicall access to the machine that seems near impossible (linux is pretty secure, isn't it)
[08:41] <erUSUL> ?
[08:41] <dfletcher> erUSUL, yeah so it does mean a trip to the hosting facility (with an internal IDE drive that I'll have to install for just a sec- it's a 1U server and there's no room for another disk)
[08:41] <dfletcher> damn that was the command of doom :)
[08:42] <dazrour> Can anyone help me reduce my cpu fan speed without using the bios
[08:42] <young-man> tnx people again
[08:43] <erUSUL> dfletcher: yeah :). You have to be very carefull when using superpowers XD

[08:50] <miller^> Does anyone else know something about the fglrx-driver?
[08:50] <MasterShrek> anyone know how i can not have to reload nspluginwrapper every time i restart firefox?
[08:50] <davidthedrake> Hex_101, there is a lot of information out there about that particular problem. They're called window decorations.
[08:50] <pdonne3> erUSUL: buring a live CD now...btw
[08:50] <Hex_101> Okay, thankyou davidthedrake :)
[08:51] <dazrour> Hex_101 are you trying out compiz or beryl?

[08:52] <[nrx] > hi folks. can someone assist me in figuring out why KDE/GNOME wont logout/shutdown properly? All I get is a black screen that sits for ages and ages... and ctrl + alt + bckspace doesn't bring it out, either.

[08:54] <Hex_101> will i have to type that in each time i login?
[08:54] <dazrour> no its because the window decorator isnt working with your graphics card
[08:54] <Hex_101> How come that would happen? it was working fine before?
[08:55] <pdonne3> kRush:OK.  I manually ran fsck against hda when it was mounted but read-only.  Had root system file errors

[09:06] <FFighter> I've got a java app that gets ran through a sh script but everytime I try to run it, ubuntu asks me if I want to open the sh file, run in terminal or run
[09:06] <FFighter> How could I just run the executable directly ?
[09:06] <FFighter> bypassing this check?
[09:06] <FFighter> Is it possilbe/
[09:07] <dystopianray> hjmills: the mirrors have list files for each release showing all included files, for example: http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/ubuntu/releases/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.list
[09:07] <dystopianray> hjmills: but having looked at it, it doesn't seem terribly useful
[09:08] <hjmills> dystopianray, thanks

[09:10] <NET||abuse> hmm, i want to download a big file on a box in work for tomorrow morning, but i need a login session cookie to be set in my wget or curl or whatever i use, i iopened my firefox cookies.txt file and i have ".easynews.com   TRUE    /       FALSE<PHONE_NUMBER>      __utma  63532859.594531570.1188077551.1188836017.1190135771.4" how can i use that?
[09:10] <Srixon> Hello, im having trouble installing ubuntu on my laptop.
[09:10] <mobus> I tried to load a movie into Totem, and the sound will play, but there is no video, its all black.    How do I fix this?
[09:11] <mobus> Srixon: What kind of trouble?
[09:11] <MartinW> When I reload synaptic I keep on getting these http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37819/ errors, even after generating and using a new sources.list.
[09:11] <Srixon> After install, (troubled install) the screen stays black onbootup
[09:11] <MartinW> How do I fix this?
[09:11] <dystopianray> NET||abuse: wget has a --load-cookies option, accepts a netscape format cookies file (which I assume firefox would use)
[09:11] <erUSUL> NET||abuse: from the wget man page  --load-cookies file
[09:11] <mobus> how long did you wait srixon? If you wait about 60 seconds, it might come on
[09:11] <mobus> the same thing happened to me
[09:11] <Srixon> I have to install it in "Safe Graphics" mode first anyhow,
[09:11] <Srixon> andi  let it go overnight
[09:12] <mobus> hmmmm
[09:12] <mobus> I don't know then.  Did you try moving the mouse to make sure it wasn't on standby?
[09:12] <Srixon> wheni load it up on recovery mode, it freeze on something with the TSC and processors
[09:12] <Srixon> yeah
[09:12] <NET||abuse> dystopianray, i'll try that line in a cookie file so.
[09:12] <wckdkl0wn> is there a way to convert kubuntu over to ubuntu?
[09:12] <mobus> Which installation cd are you using?
[09:13] <wckdkl0wn> but save everything i have installed
[09:13] <LjL> !kubuntu | wckdkl0wn, same goes both ways
[09:13] <ubotu> wckdkl0wn, same goes both ways: 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
[09:13] <dystopianray> wckdkl0wn: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[09:13] <LjL> !kde | wckdkl0wn, sorry i meant this
[09:13] <ubotu> wckdkl0wn, sorry i meant this: KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu.

[09:14] <LjL> wckdkl0wn: problem is, all the kubuntu stuff you have will be left installed. you can try "sudo apt-get autoremove kubuntu-desktop", but it may not work as you want -- in particular, pay attention to what it removes, it may remove stuff you wanted to keep

[09:14] <wckdkl0wn> i dont like kde thats why i want to go back thats all
[09:14] <wckdkl0wn> lol
[09:14] <mobus> which installation cd are you using serixon?
[09:14] <Srixon> Ive tried a few, Ubuntu from the website(latest 7.04).. ubuntu Edgy eft, Ultimate Gamer edition and Ultimate Edition
[09:14] <LjL> MartinW: if you do a "sudo apt-get update", do you get that error too?
[09:14] <mobus> no
[09:14] <mobus> is it the live cd or text cd
[09:14] <MartinW> Yes
[09:15] <Srixon> live cd
[09:15] <kristian_> i have a ext3 disk which i have too log into every time i want to use it because its owned by root (me)
[09:15] <dystopianray> FFighter: so select run
[09:15] <mobus> try the text cd
[09:15] <kristian_> how do i change this?
[09:15] <FFighter> dystopianray, yeah, but isn't there a way to "remember" this setting?
[09:15] <Srixon> does that still have the gui?
[09:15] <mobus> no
[09:15] <dystopianray> FFighter: make a shortcut to the script
[09:15] <mobus> but it has A gui
[09:15] <mobus> just a watered down one
[09:15] <LjL> wckdkl0wn: how long have you used it? KDE, in my opinion, looks terrible by default. once you make it suit your tastes more, though, it offers quite some power and an integrated environment
[09:15] <MartinW> I tried to add the key as dictated in the sources.list from the generator but that also gave me  an error.
[09:15] <Srixon> am i able to upgrade it?
[09:15] <mobus> just download teh feisty cd
[09:16] <LjL> MartinW: what error? can you pastebin the whole thing?
[09:16] <mobus> you won't need to
[09:16] <mobus> but yes
[09:16] <FFighter> dystopianray, a symlink?
[09:16] <MartinW> I'll just go and reproduce it.
[09:16] <FFighter> dystopianray, I tried it but the same behaviour
[09:16] <dystopianray> FFighter: gnome/kde can make shortcuts
[09:16] <Srixon> i mean upgrade the graphics to what the normal ubuntu is?  is the text cd just a text installer?
[09:16] <mobus> its just a text installer
[09:16] <dystopianray> FFighter: a desktop or menu shortcut
[09:16] <mobus> the system will be normal
[09:16] <Srixon> alright
[09:16] <Srixon> thanks
[09:16] <Srixon> ill try that
[09:16] <mobus> cool
[09:16] <mobus> glad to help
[09:16] <dystopianray> FFighter: in kde I can click on the desktop and go to 'create new -> link to application'
[09:16] <joebob777as7> if i install a nautilus script where does it install to?
[09:17] <mobus> #totem
[09:17] <LjL> Srixon: the *Server* CD gives you a text-only environment, but the *Alternate* CD is simple a text-mode installer for the full-blown Desktop version
[09:17] <UberPsyX> hey guys (and gals), im new to pc's but i just put a 2nd harddrive in my system, i couldnt find the jumper settings anywhere so i used trial and error, i got it to pick up in gparted but its set as a read-only drive, how do i set it up so i can install vista on it and have it as a seperate...thing..you get what i mean
[09:17] <Srixon> LjL: thanks
[09:17] <FFighter> dystopianray, Tried it, it won't run
[09:17] <NET||abuse> hmm, ok i cat path/to/firefox/cookies.txt | grep domainname.com and put all the lines there into a cookies file on my box in work,, i try wget --load-cookies cookies.txt http://domain.com/download?x=y&z=w  and it still gives a 401 authorization failed :(
[09:18] <dystopianray> FFighter: is there an error?
[09:18] <recon69> got a question, has the dvd encryption got better recently, as I am having problems playing dvd's on my system and am wondering if it time to get a new dvd player?
[09:18] <FFighter> dystopianray, I created a launcher
[09:18] <FFighter> dystopianray, no
[09:18] <FFighter> dystopianray, It just fails silently
[09:18] <dystopianray> FFighter: you must be doing it wrong
[09:18] <erUSUL> NET||abuse: why not use the full cookies.txt??
[09:18] <FFighter> dystopianray, the path to the sh script is correct
[09:18] <NET||abuse> erUSUL, umm, i suppose, i could just copy it..
[09:19] <cox377> would anyone mind giving me a hand with HTTPD?
[09:19] <dystopianray> FFighter: is the working directory correct?
[09:19] <recon69> can even play the copy-protection bit at the start of dvd, but I get a "can't read NAV"  error when i try to watch main feature?
[09:19] <joebob777as7> if i install a nautilus script where does it install to?
[09:19] <FFighter> dystopianray, it only has a "command" field where I can put the command to run
[09:20] <mobus> I tried to load a movie into Totem, and the sound will play, but there is no video, its all black.    How do I fix this?
[09:20] <Marlun> If I've got some mp3 file which actually is like 3min long but serpentine and other burning programs for gnome tells me the songs are like 20min, I was told something about changing bitrates yeasterday (unfortunately I don't remember exactly what was told). Can I fix this somehow? some tool? =)
[09:20] <NET||abuse> erUSUL, ok, sftp'd the cookies.txt file and it still isn't authorized :( What's wrong here?? my current firefox session is still authorized apparently?
[09:20] <dystopianray> FFighter: hrrm, I don't know much about gnome so i'm not sure what else you can do
[09:20] <dystopianray> recon69: there is something wrong with the dvd
[09:20] <dystopianray> recon69: the disk has errors on it
[09:21] <erUSUL> NET||abuse: dunno, sorry. i've never used cookies with wget... just read the man page...
[09:21] <MartinW> Oh no! I'm such an idiot, I forgot sudo, thats why it that gave me an error.
[09:22] <MartinW> Sorry
[09:22] <dystopianray> marlun: changing bitrates won't affect the length of the song, only the quality
[09:22] <recon69> dystopianray: these disks work fine on my regular DVD player
[09:22] <FFighter> dystopianray, nevermind
[09:22] <FFighter> dystopianray, thanks anyway
[09:22] <dystopianray> recon69: regular dvd players are more tolerant of errors
[09:22] <proxosi> I have strange fonts ' with the files in Korean / Japanese character how i fix that
[09:22] <proxosi> How i see video files in rmvb format ... for real video 4.0 codec???
[09:23] <Marlun> dystopianray: got any idea what could be causing this then and how I may fix it? =)
[09:23] <Wulfie> where besides xorg.conf can I tell ubuntu my resolution to start X in?  Currently it wants to start it at 1440x1440 even though xorg.conf says 1440x900
[09:23] <dystopianray> marlun: not really, sorry
[09:23] <recon69> dystopianray: hmm, thinking my computers DVD player is stuffed, just wanted to ask as I would feel really stupid if i bought a new one and it did not fix the problem ( and poorer )
[09:24] <dn4> what type of number system did the maya use to calculate ?
[09:24] <kaserek> Witam, szukam odpowiednika SopCasta pod Ubuntu (w koncu dzis liga mistrzow)...

[09:24] <recon69> dystopianray: and some of the DVD i'v tried did not have a mark on them , so i think it's my pc's dvd player
[09:25] <dystopianray> recon69: it may be a copy protection designed to screw with dvd-rom drives
[09:25] <hjmills> recon69, do what I did and use the excuse to buy a lightscribe writer then find the other one isnt broken and end up with 2 drives
[09:26] <hjmills> recon69, no, I never have written a lightscribe disc, but the logo on the drive tray looks cool...

[09:28] <flo_> hi. simple question. python2.5 is current on my system (feisty, i guess). How to install python module in 2.4 ?
[09:29] <ice2cool> i have installed winxp there but how do i get my video card configured......it dosent detect my video card
[09:29] <xtknight> i am aware of the alternate cd, but by any method is it possible to mount a RAID volume and install using ubiquity-installer?  would modprobing mdadm be enough for /dev/md0 to show up *somewhere*?
[09:29] <proxosi> I have strange fonts ' with the files in Korean / Japanese character how i fix that
[09:29] <proxosi> How i see video files in rmvb format ... for real video 4.0 codec???
[09:29] <xtknight> !w32codecs | proxosi
[09:29] <ubotu> proxosi: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[09:29] <zi2> what is the best way to install M$ office on ubuntu? I heard there is a better way then WINE
[09:29] <joebob777as7> ice2cool, i know in vmware you have to install vmtools it pops up when you log in...
[09:29] <ice2cool> which graphic driver will work in vmplayer?
[09:29] <xtknight> proxosi, there's an RV40 codec in w32codecs, for mplayer
[09:29] <xtknight> ice2cool, any
[09:30] <wckdkl0wn> if i do sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop dont i have to uninstall the kubuntu-desktop?
[09:30] <joebob777as7> ice2cool, none will work right
[09:30] <xtknight> ice2cool, be more specific
[09:30] <dystopianray> wckdkl0wn: no you don't
[09:30] <wckdkl0wn> ok ty dystopianray
[09:30] <NET||abuse> ahhh,, ok, gottit.. logged in using wget --keep-session-cookies --save-cookies cookie.txt --post-data 'username=xyz&password=zvw' http://www.domain.com/login/ and then wget --keep-session-cookies --load-cookies cookie.txt http://www.domain.com/download/filetodownload.zip
[09:30] <dystopianray> ice2cool: there is a specific vmware driver
[09:30] <xtknight> what happens when you install both ubuntu and kubuntu-desktop?  does it give you a choice via gdm?
[09:30] <joebob777as7> ice2cool, vmware and vmplayer won't allow direct access to hardware it emulates hardware by installing a driver. you will not have great vga performance with it...
[09:31] <dystopianray> xtknight: you select kde/gnome through the session menu on gdm/kdm
[09:31] <magnetron> xtknight: yes
[09:31] <xtknight> ahh
[09:31] <Sivik> xtknight: it should, you should be able to choose if you want to login with gnome or kde
[09:31] <qmyro> hi all i am trying to build boost from source could does someone have a how to or a link
[09:32] <NET||abuse> hoohooohahaha,, nice,, 800MB in 32Minutes.. that'll do :)
[09:33] <proxosi> xtknight what is w32codecs for>?
[09:33] <xtknight> proxosi, it contains Windows DLLs for playing those media codecs such as RV40
[09:33] <ompaul> !w32codecs | proxosi
[09:33] <ubotu> proxosi: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[09:33] <xtknight> proxosi, they are proprietary, so they can not be distributed freely
[09:33] <mark488> dazrour and others....  avidemux doesn't have codec for .mov audio.  Basic editor that can handle .mov ?
[09:33] <erUSUL> NET||abuse: it's a looooooong command invocation ;)
[09:34] <xtknight> proxosi, mplayer (a media player program) can use these DLLs to play back your RV40-files
[09:34] <ice2cool> how do i get that specific vmware driver
[09:34] <NET||abuse> erUSUL, well, means i can console in and download junk from behind a login now..
[09:34] <xtknight> ice2cool, it is automatically detected and installed in the VM if you use linux, most of the time.  Else, use VMWARE Tools
[09:34] <Funcan> Hi. Is there a debian/ubuntu 'proper' way of removing a server from a runlevel, so that upgrades don't put it back?
[09:34] <xtknight> Funcan, removing it from Services
[09:34] <xtknight> ?
[09:35] <NET||abuse> erUSUL, now if only there was an automated way :P
[09:35] <proxosi> xtknight the link u gave me what i'm looking for to download?
[09:35] <cox377> can anyone recommend a good https how to?
[09:35] <ice2cool> okz
[09:35] <NET||abuse> erUSUL, know of a remote download queue manager or some such thing :)
[09:35] <ice2cool> are vmware tools free?
[09:35] <dystopianray> ice2cool: they were recently made open source
[09:35] <NET||abuse> ice2cool, they are or were just open sourced
[09:35] <xtknight> proxosi, add these to /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:35] <xtknight> proxosi, deb http://mirror3.ubuntu.com/ feisty-seveas extras freenx
[09:35] <xtknight> deb-src http://mirror3.ubuntu.com/ feisty-seveas extras freenx
[09:35] <Funcan> xtknight: I've been rming the symlinks to /etc/init.d. What do you mean removing it from services?
[09:35] <kane77> can theme cause freezes? like you cannot click on anything?
[09:36] <IndyLucian> i cant find anything on help.ubuntu.com about compatibility with PCI TV Tuner cards. Anyone know if any work for sure with ubuntu?
[09:36] <xtknight> proxosi, if that doesn't work you'll have to find a mirror that does work.  replace http:// with an address listed as a mirror.
[09:36] <cox377> !https
[09:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about https - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:36] <cox377> !httpd
[09:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about httpd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:36] <xtknight> Funcan, system->admin->services is the proper way to remove a lot of stuff.  do you see your Server in there?
[09:36] <NET||abuse> gotta go home before that download is finished so i can kick off another :)
[09:36] <NET||abuse> laters all.

[09:42] <Wulfie> where besides xorg.conf can I tell ubuntu my resolution to start X in?  Currently it wants to start it at 1440x1440 even though xorg.conf says 1440x900
[09:42] <xtknight> qmyro, if you find a bug it would be helpful to submit a bug report to LaunchPad so we can either Sync the new version of boost or backport a patch to the current one.

[09:49] <Wulfie>     Option         "metamodes" "1440x900 +0+0; 1152x864 +0+0; 1024x768 +0+0; 832x624 +0+0; 800x600 +0+0; 640x480 +0+0"
[09:49] <Wulfie> would it be that?
[09:50] <xtknight> Wulfie, do you have dual monitors?  if not, that doesnt need to be there
[09:50] <dazrour> rediz what have you tried so far?
[09:50] <Wulfie> I don't currently no
[09:50] <xtknight> Srixon, logical volume management
[09:50] <acecase> Funcan, It doesn't get to that point before it fails to connect. dmesg doesn't give me anything useful
[09:50] <Srixon> xtknight: whats it do?
[09:50] <xtknight> Wulfie, that line is probably messing things up
[09:50] <Srixon> or rather, Should i use it?
[09:50] <xtknight> Srixon, i believe it allows RAID.  you shouldn't use it unless you know you need it
[09:50] <Wulfie> okay let me try this then
[09:50] <Srixon> Alrighty, thanks
[09:50] <xtknight> Srixon, or, combining multiple drives to single partitions, etc.
[09:50] <Srixon> Gotcha, thanks much *gives cookie*
[09:50] <acecase> wireless works perfectly at home with encryption enabled so I don't know why it won't connect to an open AP
[09:51] <bobesponja> atomicfreeze: just found xbacklight that does the job :-)
[09:51] <Geeunkown> I just wanted to know if I could chaged the outlook of my desktop to look that way also..
[09:51] <Srixon> HP Pavilian Laptops make Ubuntu Cry...  difficult to install it on them.
[09:51] <Srixon> Pavilion*
[09:51] <rediz_> dazrour iv started ndis what command do i use to piont it to driver
[09:51] <Funcan> acecase, start trying to connect, kill nm-applet, check iwconfig still shows the right essid then run sudo dhclient, see if it can get an IP that way...
[09:51] <xtknight> Srixon, my hp pavilion dv2000 worked well
[09:52] <xtknight> even dapper wroked
[09:52] <Srixon> mines a dv6000
[09:52] <CountX> where can i get help with avidemux?
[09:52] <xtknight> ahh
[09:52] <CountX> !avidemux
[09:52] <proxosi> xtknight http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37823/
[09:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about avidemux - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:52] <xtknight> i heard of troubles w/ that
[09:52] <Funcan> acecase, that make sense?
[09:52] <Srixon> and im having sooo many problems... the wifi dnt work, nor does the touchpad.
[09:52] <acecase> Funcan, thanks I'll try that. Is nm-applet the network-manager-gnome applet?
[09:52] <Srixon> but i wub ubuntu. so i will make it work
[09:52] <dazrour> i would open a terminal and navigate to the folder wher the windows driver is kept using cd ...
[09:52] <Funcan> acecase, yes
[09:52] <Srixon> especially since my fav game is ocming to it.. Eve Online
[09:52] <Discerer> asking again: does anyone here know how to solve the "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off" problem? I get it when trying to install from the live cd
[09:52] <dazrour> then  "sudo ndiswrapper -i ****.inf
[09:53] <xtknight> proxosi, see "Errors when using this repository" on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[09:53] <acecase> Funcan, yeah, I thought that applet may be causing me problems but it gets my home network up when I can't do it with iwconfig manually so I keep it. I'll try what you said. :)
[09:53] <dazrour> once you have done that give me a ahout
[09:53] <plantperson> Hey,  how come ubuntu no longer supports nvu?
[09:53] <Srixon> Quick Question.... when i started upt he txt installer... The first thing to pop up after i selected install was "Bios Bug #1"
[09:53] <Srixon> whats that mean
[09:53] <xtknight> plantperson, it's being replaced by Kompozer
[09:53] <tonyyarusso> plantperson: Stagnant upstream.  +what xtknight said
[09:53] <Funcan> acecase, it caused me loads of problems with my work wireless network, but seems fine everywhere else
[09:53] <plantperson> Kompozer?  Is it any good?
[09:54] <rediz_> getting driver now 2 mins
[09:54] <erUSUL> !info nvu
[09:54] <tonyyarusso> plantperson: it's the same original codebase plus bugfixes and improvements.
[09:54] <ubotu> Package nvu does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[09:54] <acecase> I don't know what the problem is but if I setup my connection with ifconfig/iwconfig the same way I do with every other box here it won't work for this one.
[09:54] <acecase> Funcan, ^
[09:54] <plantperson> sounds cool
[09:54] <tonyyarusso> !kompozer | plantperson
[09:54] <ubotu> plantperson: kompozer is a WYSIWYG HTML editor for easily creating web pages, and the continuation of the dead Nvu project.  It will be in the Ubuntu repos for 7.10 ("gutsy"); meanwhile for other versions add the following to your /etc/apt/sources.list:  "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/tonyyarusso/ubuntu {dapper,edgy,feisty} universe"  (pick your release and list it without brackets, and no quotes)

[09:58] <jlouis_> lizard_: whats 'cut out' specifically?
[09:58] <e\ectro_> but when it boots, I dont see it picking up the preseed file
[09:58] <gravemind> jlouis_: it says its wave audio. maybe speex doesn't understand all types of waves
[09:58] <Funcan> acecase, I'm missing sound on this laptop, and any form of powersaving on the may other
[09:58] <jlouis_> no sound at all, or?

[09:58] <CountX> how can i convert an ogg video file down to a smaller resolution?
[09:58] <acecase> Funcan, what are they?
[09:58] <CountX> like scale it?
[09:58] <xtknight> !usplash | EMO
[09:58] <ubotu> EMO: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[09:59] <erUSUL> crowley1027: some need 3d acceleration working
[09:59] <jlouis_> gravemind: heh, you could try to convert it around. The soundconverter package may be able to do it
[09:59] <EMO> thanks
[10:00] <crowley1027> erUSUL: how do i fix that then
[10:00] <Secher> do you know if i can merge a partition together with the root drive?
[10:00] <Funcan> acecase, this one is an HP nc440, other is an acer media thing

[10:00] <panosru> if its possible
[10:01] <crowley1027> How do i enable 3D accelaration?
[10:01] <jlouis_> lizard_: nothing interesting in /var/log which could hint?
[10:01] <acecase> Funcan, you don't seem like the type who has failed to use Google so I'd say you have tried anything I could suggest.
[10:01] <dj_red> ubuntu its like linux?

[10:03] <crowley1027> this is a temp
[10:03] <acecase> Funcan, seems like there is always something that has to be hacked together dosen't it.

[10:06] <mildner> I have got a external HD how can I formate it...its with windows and I have to change the read an write rights
[10:07] <TU> jlouis_: they take forever
[10:07] <TU> jlouis_: so long they time out sometimes
[10:07] <xtknight> qmyro, well the link shows packages that have the file you need
[10:07] <TU> every where else it is almost instantaneous
[10:07] <TU> (my other devices i mean)
[10:07] <xtknight> qmyro, i'd install latest versions of all those listed pkgs
[10:07] <CountX> whats a good program for converting ogg video to something smaller
[10:07] <qmyro> ok thanks i will
[10:07] <CountX> anyone?
[10:07] <Railer> Hey Just got my oil changed and the shops computers all ran ubuntu, just though I'd mention it
[10:07] <vader1102> TU my gosh how many times you going to hit the enter key?
[10:07] <jlouis_> TU: you could dig around in /etc/resolv.conf and check it is the same as the other PCs.
[10:08] <kr00l> Railer, where was that at? State?
[10:08] <CountX> Railer: which version?
[10:08] <jlouis_> CountX: I'd use mplayer/mencoder for that

[10:09] <vader1102> Railer, awesome news for the Ubuntu team :)
[10:09] <TU> jlouis_: but the looks ip FINE
[10:09] <jlouis_> TU: yes, but are they using the same DNS server?
[10:09] <TU> jlouis_: no clue.  My router does all that.
[10:09] <gilster> are there any recent issues with firefox?
[10:09] <vader1102> gilster, not to my knowledge
[10:09] <TU> my laptop's /etc/resolv.conf is kinda wierd too.
[10:10] <gilster> my firefox keeps randomly shutting down :-(
[10:10] <TU> jlouis_: it has the nameserver as <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:10] <mildner> nrx: sorry I wasn't pushing
[10:10] <jlouis_> TU: mine has too ;)
[10:10] <[nrx] > TU, that's correct.. but you should have another nameserver line, too
[10:10] <TU> jlouis_: which dosn't make sense because i don't run a dns server unless dnsmasq (which was installed by defualt) is doing it too
[10:10] <TU> [nrx] : does search unh.edu (my school) count?
[10:10] <ephesius> does anyone know of a way to search a lan for a dc++ hub?
[10:11] <gilster> my firefox keeps randomly shutting down :-( does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?
[10:11] <xerophyte1> does anybody know why do i get this error EXT3-fs error (device sda6): ext3_free_blocks: Freeing blocks not in datazone - block =<PHONE_NUMBER>, count = 1
[10:11] <[nrx] > TU, wouldn't have thought so, but if it's a valid DNS server, there's no reason why not
[10:11] <gravemind> jlouis_: I suppose I could encode it as flac, then decode it back to wav and then try again
[10:11] <TU> [nrx] : Okay. fair enough.  I think it is defualting to that to do lookups which is why it is so f'ing slow.
