[02:23] <Hobbsee> hey CrippsFX
[02:23] <bernier> avis ok ill try but the only way i can close adept is byt the X because i canot cancel while its "preparing" and after i closed it it always says theres a process in memory which is using the package system manager or something
[02:23] <beavis> c0nfidencal: well , you are only using one at the time , so use one at a time and see if its any better
[02:24] <wall0159> pitti: I'm not sure how to, because it mounts 'ro' automatically, and if I eject it, the device (/dev/sda) disappears
[02:24] <beavis> onlso try public dns lik <IP_ADDRESS> or <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:24] <Klaidas> which one of these keep internet connection: suspend or hibernate?
[02:24] <paolo_> ogra, renaming it in the same directory?
[02:24] <avis> bernier i believe for some reason amarok integrated with it to load with files
[02:24] <c0nfidencal> beavis, k i will try
[02:24] <c0nfidencal> thx
[02:24] <pitti> wall0159: sudo mount -o remount,rw /dev/sdaX (where X is the mounted partition, e.g. '1')
[02:25] <pitti> wall0159: if you just type 'mount', you will see which partition is mounted
[02:25] <ogra> paolo_, asl long as it doesnt end in .desktop it should be fine
[02:25] <wall0159> pitti: thanks! hang on - I'm trying... :-)
[02:26] <xxyyzz> Is there a special way to uninstall stuff on Linux, or do I just go around deleting all the files?
[02:26] <paolo_> ogra, ok
[02:26] <poje> xxyyzz: depends on what you are removing
[02:26] <ctothej> ATI Driver installed a program called fireglcontrol. What is it?
[02:26] <xxyyzz> poje, an application that I downloaded and installed
[02:26] <Netcad>  i want to send all outgoing mail to a development email address. I was told virtusertable was what i needed to look into but i don't think that will do what I want. Any suggestions?
[02:26] <poje> xxyyzz: how did you install it
[02:26] <Chris_C> Does anyone know how I can access the extra non-music data on an "enhanced CD"? (i.e. a movie burned on the outside edge)
[02:26] <xxyyzz> poje: ./configure ... make ... make install
[02:26] <Chris_C> I can't get anything to come up but the CD audio player
[02:27] <poje> xxyyzz: go to that directory and use make uninstall
[02:27] <xxyyzz> oh
[02:27] <xxyyzz> I didn't know you could do that
[02:27] <xxyyzz> Thanks
[02:27] <poje> xxyyzz: no problem, _most_ programs include uninstall targets :)
[02:28] <poje> xxyyzz: two things though: 1, if you delete the makefile (or the directory holding it, obviously), you lost that capability; and 2) try using ./configure, make, checkinstall
[02:28] <xxyyzz> poje, what does checkinstall do?
[02:29] <Jowi> !checkinstall
[02:29] <ubotu> I guess checkinstall is http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CheckInstall
[02:29] <poje> checkinstall is a package that uses make install to create a .deb package that registers it in your app list to make uninstalling easy
[02:29] <xxyyzz> I don't think there's a thing ubotu doesn't know...
[02:29] <VoX> !urmum
[02:29] <ubotu> No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, VoX
[02:29] <VoX> wrong
[02:30] <wall0159> pitti: thanks - that seems to have worked.  I need a swedish rare song ^^
[02:30] <pitti> wall0159: oh, 'force' is the reason why it doesn't happen automatically in the first place
[02:30] <wall0159> ahh! :-)
[02:31] <poje> Tobberoth: limewire is released for linux :)
[02:31] <pitti> wall0159: do you see anything in dmesg about a corrupted file system or so?
[02:31] <pitti> wall0159: in any case, can you please file a bug against pmount and include /var/log/kern.log and the facts?
[02:31] <Tobberoth> poje: Awesome! Thanks :)
[02:31] <pitti> wall0159: I'll try to come up with a fix, but I need some info (I don't have an iPod myself)
[02:31] <ROBOd> hellow
[02:32] <wall0159> pitti: this is the only questionable line:  HFS+-fs: write access to a jounaled filesystem is not supported, use the force option at your own risk, mounting read-only.
[02:32] <pitti> wall0159: oh, uh
[02:32] <Tobberoth> hmm, limewire is not in synaptic package manager.. don't know if I dare trying to install it then ^^
[02:32] <ROBOd> i want to use vnc4server instead of vnc3 for sharing my desktop in ubuntu 6
[02:32] <ROBOd> how to do that?
[02:32] <pitti> wall0159: please redirect the bug report against the kernel then (linux-source-2.6.15)
[02:32] <poje> Tobberoth: have you enabled the multiverse repository?
[02:32] <ROBOd> i have vnc4server, vnc4-common installed, but, of course, gnome won't use it
[02:32] <Tobberoth> poje, yeah
[02:32] <ROBOd> how to force it?
[02:33] <wall0159> pitti: ah ok. I wondered if it was a kernel issue
[02:33] <poje> Tobberoth: downloading a client from the LW site should be safe
[02:33] <Tobberoth> only binary though
[02:33] <Tobberoth> allright
[02:33] <pitti> wall0159: we should take this warning serious enough to not override it by default
[02:33] <poje> Tobberoth: as much as I love apt-get and rolling my own, binaries aren't bad
[02:34] <Frogzoo> !frostwire
[02:34] <ubotu> somebody said frostwire was a free peer-to-peer application that runs on the Gnutella network. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrostWire
[02:34] <h3sp4wn> !dpkg-cross
[02:34] <ubotu> Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, h3sp4wn
[02:34] <efbie> Hello ! Is there anybody here who knows how to convert html to pdf ?
[02:34] <Tobberoth> what should I open .rpm with?
[02:34] <wall0159> pitti: ok. That sounds fair enough. I've not submitted a kernel bug report before.. is that an Ubuntu based bug, since they've compiled the kernel?
[02:34] <nosklo> Tobberoth: you shouldn't
[02:35] <poje> Frogzoo: any particular reason you like frostwire over limewire?
[02:35] <poje> Tobberoth: possible but not advised
[02:35] <wall0159> pitti: the flip-side of that question - if I recompile my kernel, will that fix my probs? ;-)
[02:35] <poje> Tobberoth: hold on while I check their stuff
[02:35] <h3sp4wn> Tobberoth: Depends what it is you could try alien
[02:35] <_nano_> how do I change the splash screen?
[02:35] <nosklo> Tobberoth: but if you really want, you can use alien to convert it. It doesn't work all the times and may break your system, tho
[02:36] <Tobberoth> Nevermind, I'm going for that Frostwire, seems very easy to install
[02:36] <nosklo> Tobberoth: go for the packages in the repositories first, if that fails, then you look for external solutions
[02:36] <nosklo> Tobberoth: try gtk-gnutellla, nicotine, frostwire, amule, gift...
[02:38] <beavis> whats the difference between shell, console and screen session??
[02:38] <Celestar> hm
[02:39] <mr_sutz> ciao
[02:39] <Celestar> ubotu: LDAP
[02:39] <ubotu> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Celestar
[02:39] <ROBOd> somebody?
[02:39] <mr_sutz> qualcuno potrebbe darmi una mano?
[02:39] <_nano_> !splash
[02:39] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, open the gconf-editor and change the key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash-image
[02:39] <_nano_> !gconf-editor
[02:39] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, _nano_
[02:39] <jonesssss> Doesn't ALSA  support multipul applications using the sound driver?
[02:40] <Jowi> beavis: the shell is a command interpreter. it can be run in console or in a xterm. bash is a shell.
[02:41] <wall0159> pitti: I have to go - thanks a lot for your help. Gives me an idea of the problem, and I'll submit a bug report (to Ubuntu) Cheers mate! :-)
[02:41] <pitti> wall0159: it's basically a kernel problem
[02:41] <pitti> wall0159: the driver lacks the functionality, or sth.
[02:42] <wall0159> pitti: 'sth'?
[02:42] <pitti> wall0159: for now, just paste the warning in a bug report against the kernel and descsribe the problem (readonly ipod)
[02:42] <pitti> wall0159: sth == 'something' (sorry)
[02:42] <wall0159> pitti: ah! ok! will do. cheers!
[02:42] <edneymatias> hello all!
[02:42] <CrippsFX> windows is the best
[02:42] <beavis> Jowi: ok , but wouldnt it make the console not work without the shell?
[02:43] <Chris_C> reposting my question before I leave this computer for the day ...
[02:43] <Chris_C> Does anyone know how I can access the extra non-music data on an "enhanced CD"? (i.e. a movie burned on the outside edge)
[02:43] <Chris_C> I can't get anything to come up but the CD audio player
[02:44] <CrippsFX> Chris_C, if there's data on the outer edge of the CD, you *should* be able to mount it as a data CD
[02:44] <Jowi> beavis: the console by itself isn't very useful without by itself for the user (the system is another matter). think of the console as DOS without any user commands (for example, win98 provided most of the commands used in a DOS box)
[02:45] <Jowi> beavis: "useful without shell by itself"
[02:45] <Jowi> beavis: alot of "itself" in that sentence but you probably understood :)
[02:45] <Chris_C> CrippsFX: with just a standard mount command? (would need to dig up that syntax)  Won't already being mounted as an audio CD interfere?
[02:45] <CrippsFX> Jowi, I didn't ....
[02:46] <meuserj> Chris_C, audio CD's aren't mounted...
[02:46] <CrippsFX> Chris_C, audio CDs aren't *mounted* ....
[02:46] <meuserj> heh
[02:46] <Chris_C> oh cool, didn't know that
[02:46] <Jowi> CrippsFX: good that the sentence was for another person then:)
[02:46] <CrippsFX> Chris_C, man mount .... you'll get the syntax from there ... but for CDs it's usually as easy as: mount /dev/cdrom
[02:46] <CrippsFX> Jowi, ;)
[02:46] <beavis> Jowi: yeah, i get the point, thanks
[02:47] <Jowi> beavis: http://www.gnu.org/software/bash/ explain what bash (a shell) does.
[02:50] <tristan> Hey, anyone having trouble to input Japanese since he updated to Dapper?
[02:50] <Chris_C> CrippsFX: you are a prince among men, that worked, thanks!
[02:51] <CrippsFX> Chris_C, high praise, I don't deserve it. But, you are welcome :)
[02:51] <patrick_> hello there.  Is that possible?
[02:51] <patrick_> in a descent way? :-)
[02:52] <CrippsFX> patrick_, check out F.I.R.E. on www.linux.org
[02:52] <jimcooncat> Logged in with ssh to home machine, how can I issue a popup to the destop user?
[02:53] <CrippsFX> patrick_, http://biatchux.dmzs.com/
[02:53] <CrippsFX> jimcooncat, <command> >> /dev/vtty07   ... that might do it ....
[02:54] <CrippsFX> ... but I'm probably wrong.
[02:54] <jimcooncat> maybe export DISPLAY=0:0 && xenity "IM me!"?
[02:55] <CrippsFX> jimcooncat, that might work better than my idea :)
[02:55] <jimcooncat> CrippsFX, thanks, but I'm not sure how that would show up
[02:55] <CrippsFX> me neither :P
[02:55] <gabri81> hello
[02:55] <cef> jimcooncat: ssh into your own machine and try it *grin*
[02:56] <gabri81> i have a problem with ethernet card and motherboard asrock 939
[02:56] <jimcooncat> cef, I am, just have to use "zenity" not "xenity" :-)
[02:56] <gabri81> anyone have buy asrock?
[02:56] <cef> jimcooncat: woot!
[02:57] <Faileas> gabri81: asrock= asus's budget line
[02:58] <gabri81> faileas ok
[02:58] <Faileas> haven't run linux on any of their mobos that i have, sorry
[02:58] <Faileas> i have one of those though, caps exploded ;p
[02:59] <jeff__> Can anyone help me with apt-get (not sure if im right on names) updating from breezy to dapper?
[02:59] <byen> none of the wifi managers work on dapper... can someone help me
[02:59] <Samuli^> Faileas, exploded? whaat.
[02:59] <Vliegendehuiskat> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[03:00] <Faileas> Samuli^: the mobo went unstable and stopped working
[03:00] <Faileas> caps were bloty and leaking
[03:00] <Samuli^> Faileas, nice failure :)
[03:00] <verwilst> hellow!
[03:00] <jeff__> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[03:00] <jeff__> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[03:00] <jeff__> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[03:00] <verwilst> how do i install domxml support for php5 on dapper?
[03:01] <jeff__> (sorry for the spam)
[03:01] <verwilst> only php4-domxml exists...
[03:01] <byen> is synaptic open jeff__
[03:01] <Vliegendehuiskat> jeff do you have other apt programs running?
[03:01] <Vliegendehuiskat> like synaptic or the update manager
[03:01] <gabri81> faileas this problem is irrisolvable?
[03:01] <verwilst> no xml modules for php5 seem to exist even
[03:01] <jeff__> ah no
[03:01] <Hawkins> I can't get the resolution I want, anybody willing to help me ?
[03:01] <Faileas> gabri81: yours or mine?
[03:01] <gabri81> mine
[03:01] <Vliegendehuiskat> none of them running
[03:01] <jeff__> byen: ah wait, there
[03:02] <Faileas> gabri81: no reason why it shouldn't work. is the ethernet port (i assume its internal) working for any other OS?
[03:02] <Ng> verwilst: what kind of xml module?
[03:02] <verwilst> Ng: domxml
[03:02] <zewo> jeff__:  what Vliegendehuiskat says is correct although when I tried it said it would need to download 800mb, thats more than the iso image for a complete new dapper. my reason for attempting the update via apt-get was simply to save having to download the cd image your's may be different
[03:03] <gharz> guys... can ubuntu 6.06 dapper be a part of a windows server 2003 domain?
[03:03] <Vliegendehuiskat> was it 800 mb there?
[03:03] <jeff__> zewo: ah, lemme check
[03:03] <zewo> jeff__ and Vliegendehuiskat yeap just my experience :)
[03:03] <Vliegendehuiskat> hehehehe
[03:03] <sapperjanko> s3 trio-368
[03:03] <Vliegendehuiskat> i'm on 6.06 though
[03:03] <jeff__> zewo: tells me 107MB
[03:03] <Vliegendehuiskat> one little buggy there
[03:03] <gabri81> faileas yes i have asrock 939 and there is ethernet card realtek alc850
[03:03] <Vliegendehuiskat> usb keyboards lol
[03:04] <sapperjanko> ok im back, damn mouse i had to plug back in
[03:04] <gabri81> you use this card withj ubuntu?
[03:04] <jeff__> 78.9MB of disc space required
[03:04] <zewo> wow a lot less. dunno why I got 800 mb update needed then :D
[03:04] <cef> jimcooncat: figured it out?
[03:04] <Ng> verwilst: php5 doesn't include the domxml module anymore. http://pecl.php.net/package/domxml might help, or you could try searching with pear
[03:04] <Vliegendehuiskat> but my keyboard is not one that you see everywhere
[03:04] <jeff__> zewo: is mine correct?
[03:04] <Faileas> gabri81: hmm
[03:04] <zewo> jeff__ not sure, am fairly new at this myself. definitely said 800mb to me when I tried to update from breezy to dapper though.
[03:04] <zewo> jeff__ yours is probably correct.
[03:04] <Faileas> gabri81: i can't really think of anything else, sorry
[03:04] <verwilst> Ng: oh.. sucky
[03:04] <Vliegendehuiskat> It didn't say that to me
[03:04] <verwilst> i'll just use php4 then
[03:05] <jeff__> zewo: ah okay then, going ahead with it
[03:05] <Vliegendehuiskat> but whats the trouble with pushing alt f2
[03:05] <gabri81> faileas you are newbie?
[03:05] <chamo> any news about ATI and Dapper???
[03:05] <gharz> guys... can ubuntu 6.06 dapper be a part of a windows server 2003 domain?
[03:05] <Vliegendehuiskat> and doing gksudo update-manager -d
[03:05] <CrippsFX> chamo, they work.
[03:05] <cef> jimcooncat: 'DISPLAY=:0.0 zenity --info --text="This is a test."' works for me
[03:05] <lizardmane> What's a simple, easier to setup intrusion detection system for ubuntu?
[03:05] <chamo> CrippsFX: with acceleration ??
[03:05] <Faileas> gabri81: yeah, i'm a learner, i've done mostly windows, and a little suse
[03:05] <Vliegendehuiskat> chamo everything that is on debian works in ubuntu too
[03:05] <jimcooncat> cef --no not yet
[03:06] <Vliegendehuiskat> (almost everything)
[03:06] <CrippsFX> chamo, I'm currently running it.
[03:06] <lewis> hi
[03:06] <bernier> hi, i just installed java and when i try to run frostwire with konsole it says java is not installed but im completely sure it is .. i have sun-java5-bin
[03:06] <chamo> because I cannot get FGLRX to work. I have tried many things.
[03:06] <chamo> you got FGLRX ?
[03:06] <chamo> or ATI ?
[03:06] <chamo> drivers I mean
[03:06] <gabri81> someone help me for my problem about ethernet card
[03:06] <Mikelo> !java
[03:06] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[03:06] <chamo> !ati
[03:06] <ubotu> hmm... ati is http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/hardware.html#installatidriver or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI ... the radeon 9200 and below are supported by the open-source drivers
[03:06] <Mikelo> how do i enable java in firefox
[03:06] <cef> jimcooncat: that version has the added advantage of not modifying the display var for the session, so other X based commands SSH forward properly
[03:06] <Xappe> i'm using fglrx for my 9600 pro...no problems so far on dapper
[03:07] <lewis> hi my name is lewis and can you help me?

[03:08] <chamo> Did you install a fresh new version of dapper for make it run ?
[03:08] <torrentwoes> help?
[03:08] <CrippsFX> chamo, since the mobility R 9700 is older than mine, it should work.
[03:08] <lewis> help me my name is lewis my pc is not puting in divx? help
[03:08] <jimcooncat> cef: ok, I understand now, Xlib refused the connection
[03:08] <lewis> so help me?
[03:08] <chamo> mmmh
[03:08] <DavidJaq> ok... I got an error after trying to update breezy to dapper and it kept crashing X Server upon boot... so I was told to 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' on the command line... I did that and everything seemed to work... it boots up to the user logon screen... I logon and it shows me my mouse and a colored screen... and that's it. Goes no further.
[03:08] <cef> jimcooncat: yeah.. I got that wrong before too, which threw me off for a bit. *grin*
[03:08] <b14ck> torrentwoes:  i asume that you download with p2p. what prog do u use?
[03:09] <gr33npho3nix> an andybody maybe offer some suggestions about this message /usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware: /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libgcc_s.so.1/libgcc_s.so.1: version `GCC_3.4' not found (required by /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2)
[03:09] <lewis> help
[03:09] <ctothej> hey. im trying to reinstall fglrx drivers, but im getting an error when removing or installing the xorg-driver-fglrx using apt-get
[03:09] <torrentwoes> i dont download anything
[03:09] <jimcooncat> I guess xhost needs to be set
[03:09] <Hawkins> chamo, I am truly a newbie in linux world and I just got fglrx work with my Radeon 850XT, only problem is I can't get 1280x960 resolution
[03:09] <ctothej>  it says: dpkg-divert: rename involves overwriting `/usr/lib/libGL.so.1' with  different file `/usr/lib/fglrx/libGL.so.1.xlibmesa', not allowed
[03:09] <torrentwoes> i just got ubuntu working
[03:09] <gr33npho3nix> I tried changing the symlink to GCC-3.4

[03:09] <lewis> help
[03:09] <torrentwoes> i ran automatix
[03:09] <Xappe> chamo, you should just have to apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx and change the driver from ati to fglrx in your xorg.conf
[03:09] <torrentwoes> installed
[03:09] <amortvigil> hey i cant use my second hard disk i tried gksudo but even there i cant change its rights and i tried to chmod to 777 but than it still says read only premision
[03:09] <Jowi> gabri81: I don't know about that specific card. but if you can copy/paste "lspci -n" and paste it to this site http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/ you should at least be able to find out what driver to use.
[03:09] <torrentwoes> azureus wont launch
[03:09] <cef> jimcooncat: are you the same user as the logged in X user?
[03:09] <kemik> !dpkg-reconfigure x
[03:09] <b14ck> torrentwoes:  oh good. enjoy. i have done that myself only a little while ago
[03:09] <ubotu> kemik: Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[03:09] <torrentwoes> well.. it launches and then disappears
[03:09] <gr33npho3nix> amortvigil: what format is your second disk
[03:10] <chamo> my xorg.conf is already set up, the new driver have been installed, I even installed the headers. And it doesnt work :/
[03:10] <lewis> help me put in xvid
[03:10] <DavidJaq> ok... I got an error after trying to update breezy to dapper and it kept crashing X Server upon boot... so I was told to 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' on the command line... I did that and everything seemed to work... it boots up to the user logon screen... I logon and it shows me my mouse and a colored screen... and that's it. Goes no further.

[03:10] <amortvigil> gr33npho3nix: windows ntfs

[03:10] <Frogzoo> torrentwoes: -> #automatix
[03:10] <chamo> damn this is a mess
[03:10] <lewis> help me put in xvid
[03:10] <zewo> lewis: do you want to play xvid format video's?
[03:10] <gr33npho3nix> oh well thats about how you mount it
[03:10] <jimcooncat> cef, I think I got it by sudo su "user" first
[03:10] <torrentwoes> ooo
[03:10] <b14ck> lewis:  search in synaptic for nvidia
[03:10] <gabri81> jowi you can help me?
[03:11] <lewis> yes and divx
[03:11] <jeff__> When updating with apt-get, it will all install fine even when im logged in?
[03:11] <torrentwoes> ill try there
[03:11] <torrentwoes> thanks
[03:11] <DavidJaq> Jowi, you there?
[03:11] <b14ck> you don't need divx. just install mplayer
[03:11] <rusher> hello
[03:11] <gharz> guys... can ubuntu 6.06 dapper be a part of a windows server 2003 domain?
[03:11] <gr33npho3nix> amortvigil: windows ntfs doesn't like to mount read/write in face I can't remember if its compiled w\ such in ubuntu
[03:11] <b14ck> lewis: you don't need divx. just install mplayer
[03:11] <gr33npho3nix> you have to specify read write in the mounting options
[03:11] <Jowi> DavidJaq: more or less. dist-upgrade failed?
[03:11] <chamo> any idea why it doesnt work for me the ati/fglrx support ?
[03:11] <rusher> kaffeine and vlc work best for windows content
[03:11] <gr33npho3nix> unfrotunately you can't jsut chmod it
[03:11] <chamo> I always keep getting MESA
[03:11] <zewo> lewis: this webpage will explain all you need to know: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[03:11] <cef> jimcooncat: yeah.. it'll be xhost or Xauthority holding you back otherwise
[03:12] <DavidJaq> It seemed to work, but it won't load past the log on screen
[03:12] <jeff__> someone.. I was using dist-update and it just completed.. do i need to reboot?
[03:12] <b14ck> torrentwoes:  did u tried with bit torrent?
[03:12] <jimcooncat> cef, good, thanks a bunch!
[03:12] <amortvigil> gr33npho3nix: so whats the best thing to do?
[03:12] <cef> jimcooncat: no problem
[03:12] <Hawkins> chamo, what have you done so far ?
[03:12] <jenda> Can anyone recommend a text editor that allows me to open the last 5k lines of a file? For logs.
[03:12] <daxxar> How can I get visible-bell working with Gnome-Term? Audible-bell in .inputrc works fine, it beeps and is annoying, but setting it to visible makes it just ignore it (no sound, no blink).
[03:12] <Jowi> DavidJaq: (put my name in front of your message so i see it better) so you get to the login screen?
[03:12] <chamo> Hawkins: I have tried most of the steps found on the net.
[03:12] <gr33npho3nix> amortvigil:  i highly suggest that you don't try to make it writable in linux
[03:12] <gr33npho3nix> that could cause serious data loss
[03:12] <rafael> ho
[03:13] <Hawkins> I had the same problem about 2 hours ago
[03:13] <gr33npho3nix> but give me a second and will try to find you the propper commands
[03:13] <Frogzoo> gharz: http://www.wlug.org.nz/ActiveDirectorySamba
[03:13] <b14ck> can i download using wine =>> bit commet?
[03:13] <rafael> i need a help
[03:13] <rafael> with firefox update
[03:13] <lee_> Hey, so why is automatix bad?
[03:13] <amortvigil> gr33npho3nix: thanx
[03:13] <Frogzoo> jenda: tail -5000 blah.log | less     ;)
[03:13] <amortvigil> gr33npho3nix: welll data or no data is has to be writeble:P
[03:13] <zewo> jenda: try tail -n 5000 yourfilename - that will print out the last 5000 lines which you can redirect to another file and edit
[03:13] <cef> jenda: 'tail -n 5000 | vi -'
[03:13] <DavidJaq> Jowi: It seemed to work, but it won't load past the log on screen
[03:14] <chamo> Hawkins: I have all the repo well configured. I had XGL working well. I have updated kernel (to 2.6.15-23-686) and I have reinstalled xorg-driver-fglrx + linux-restricted-modules-XXXXXX coreseponding.... And my xorg.conf has the line "Driver "fglrx" in it.
[03:14] <jenda> hehe thanks

[03:14] <zewo> oh nice one cef :D *tries that*
[03:14] <chamo> Rebooting and everything. Tried already theses steps a few times
[03:14] <jenda> cef: please don't recommend vi to newbies ;)
[03:14] <b14ck> can i download using wine =>> bit commet?
[03:14] <kemik> !keyboard
[03:14] <ubotu> kemik: parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[03:14] <cef> jenda: true true
[03:14] <Hawkins> chamo, I had to add fglrx into modules file which is loaded at boot
[03:15] <bernier> !frostwire
[03:15] <ubotu> methinks frostwire is a free peer-to-peer application that runs on the Gnutella network. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrostWire
[03:15] <Frogzoo> !tell b14ck about appdb
[03:15] <Ng> verwilst: the suggested route seems to be to port your code to the new DOM module, which should be included in php5
[03:15] <gharz> Frogzoo, thanks! i'll check the website.
[03:15] <Hawkins> chamo, I don't remember where it was located, but I'm searhing it at the moment
[03:15] <b14ck> ty Frogzoo
[03:15] <chamo> etc/modules I think
[03:15] <Hawkins> chamo, you're right
[03:15] <chamo> and fglrx is in there....
[03:15] <Jowi> DavidJaq: try to press ctrl-alt-f1, login there, delete the gnome directories "rm -rf .gnome* .gtkrc*" then press crtl-alt-f7 and try again.
[03:16] <cef> unfortunately gnome-text-exitor doesn't accept standard input
[03:16] <chamo> Hawkins: any other idea ?
[03:16] <Hawkins> chamo, sudo gedit /etc/modules
[03:16] <chamo> maybe the modul is not well loaded
[03:16] <SAM_theman> Yo hommies
[03:16] <Hawkins> If you don't have fglrx listed there, add it and save
[03:16] <ijeff> okay, i just finished using dist-upgrade.. do I have dapper now then?
[03:16] <SAM_theman> And Goodmoring
[03:16] <h3sp4wn> jenda: Why is that vi was the first text editor I used in unix , (after emacs which I couldn't use at all) - I read unix in a nutshell - then understood enough about vi for it to be useful - stil use it , I think you are making the mistake of assuming people who are new to something are incapable / unwilling to learn
[03:17] <zewo> ijeff: i would guess so :) as i said i didnt end up using that method
[03:17] <ijeff> zewo: ah cool, that was surprisingly quick and easy!
[03:17] <chamo> Hawkins: fglrx is in the modules to load file
[03:17] <mig> bonjour
[03:17] <mig> des franais par ici ??
[03:18] <cef> hrm, just found a bug in gedit
[03:18] <Hawkins> chamo, hmm... I didn't have it there first... I think just a plain booting system might help
[03:18] <cef> at least in breezy
[03:18] <DavidJaq> Jowi, I'll try that and be right back
[03:18] <Bruc> mig:ici
[03:18] <RandolphCarter> anyone know which package has the M4 macros for building gnome apps?
[03:18] <chamo> can you post your /etc/X11/xorg.conf to www.pastebin.com please and send me the url ??
[03:18] <Hawkins> chamo, at least it made my driver work, if not, we should check your xorg.conf... or ask somebody who has been using linux more than one day :)
[03:19] <chamo> lol
[03:19] <chamo> did u make a fresh install of fglrx ?
[03:19] <zewo> ijeff: i'm not really sure actually, all release announcement indicated you would have to download several hundred megabytes. now i know this was for the release candidate but the instructions should be the same: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2006-May/000081.html
[03:19] <SAM_theman> Well anyway I get this message when trying to play UT2004 "demo"
[03:19] <SAM_theman> http://pastebin.com/767287
[03:19] <h3sp4wn> RandolphCarter: Do you already have gnome-devel installed ? I would expect it to be somewhere in all that junk
[03:20] <dou213> Hawkins, u have ATI video card?
[03:20] <Hawkins> chamo, roger, I'll put it there. I installed Dapper 32bit just recently and then installed fglrx
[03:20] <Hawkins> dou213, yep, x850XT
[03:20] <RandolphCarter> h3sp4wn: just fixed it - the automake metapackage install automake1.4?  package I was building needed 1.8 min
[03:20] <SAM_theman> and quake 4
[03:20] <dou213> Hawkins, then send me the link too pls
[03:20] <gr33npho3nix> amortvigil: it appears the kernel needs to be rebuilt to support it on dapper
[03:21] <gr33npho3nix> a grep of my kernel config shows that ntfs rw is not enabled
[03:21] <RandolphCarter> building Gimmie :) http://beatnik.infogami.com/Gimmie
[03:21] <mig> hello everybody.   Do this discution IRC could works with firefox, with Java runtimes environment ???
[03:21] <ijeff> zewo: ah ill look into it then\
[03:21] <ijeff> zewo: thx
[03:22] <h3sp4wn> RandolphCarter: using pbuilder ?
[03:22] <mig> i'm Linux nexbie :)
[03:22] <Hawkins> chamo and dou213 here's my xorg.conf at the moment http://pastebin.com/767290
[03:22] <chamo> be right back
[03:22] <RandolphCarter> h3sp4wn: just checked out the CVS, it's pretty bare right now
[03:22] <amortvigil> gr33npho3nix so ill have to wait?
[03:22] <amortvigil> gr33npho3nix: so ill have to wait?
[03:22] <CrippsFX> what port does VNC broadcast on?
[03:22] <RandolphCarter> h3sp4wn: runs fine though :)
[03:22] <dou213> thx
[03:23] <chamo> these WACOM thing have always been strange for me
[03:23] <chamo> to e
[03:23] <chamo> me
[03:23] <gr33npho3nix> so you have to recompile the kernel yourself
[03:23] <Hawkins> chamo, I have no idea about those, I can only help a bit with ATI + fglrx stuff
[03:24] <gr33npho3nix> theres no waiting I don't believe stabilities in the near future and I therefore don't believe it will be default in the future
[03:24] <chamo> bom
[03:24] <gr33npho3nix> amortvigil: find debian howto on building a new kernel and set aside a few hours
[03:25] <amortvigil> gr33npho3nix: well to be honest :P im new to linux and i dont even know what a kernel is
[03:25] <Hawkins> dou213 , did you find that listing helpful ?
[03:25] <gr33npho3nix> ubotu: tell amortvigil about kernel building
[03:25] <Frogzoo> mig: chatzilla
[03:26] <ijeff> zewo: wow, Update Manager has a button called "New distribution release '6.06 LTS' is available" "Upgrade"
[03:26] <zewo> ijeff: ok cool! press it then and see what it tells you it will need to download?
[03:26] <amortvigil> where can i read that/?
[03:26] <Hawkins> dou213, I can't respond in private as I'm not registered user, but no I'm on desktop
[03:26] <ijeff> zewo: 539MB to download, seems right!
[03:26] <dou213> i'll look at it some other time, gotta go now... fact is i tried myself to install xgl, but it didn't work
[03:27] <zewo> ijeff: ok yes thats much more like it
[03:27] <amortvigil> gr33npho3nix: where can i read that/?
[03:27] <DavidJaq> Jowi, that didn't do any good.
[03:27] <void^> amortvigil: don't bother, just don't write to ntfs. it's not reliable and certainly not for beginners. :)
[03:27] <gr33npho3nix> void^: already said that
[03:27] <ijeff> zewo: will be a few hours, thanks! ill let it install now - ttyl! thanks again!
[03:28] <zewo> ijeff: cool ok cya
[03:28] <shifa^away> just want to know is LAMP ready with mail, web, DNS, file serving ?
[03:28] <void^> gr33npho3nix: just putting some extra stress on it.. :)
[03:28] <zenithsN00b> I have no acceptable C compiler... what do I need to do to fix that?
[03:28] <gr33npho3nix> haha thanks
[03:28] <amortvigil> void^: just format it?
[03:28] <zewo> amortvigil: what you might be able to do though is get something in windows that is able to read and write the ext2fs / ext3fs if your using those filesystems in ubuntu
[03:28] <matt0440> is there a gstreamer mpeg plugin????
[03:29] <Jemt> matt0440: Yep, sec
[03:29] <Jowi> DavidJaq: ok. did you install ubuntu-desktop?
[03:29] <shifa^away> help! just want to know is LAMP ready with mail, web, DNS, file serving ?
[03:29] <void^> amortvigil: you could use a small fat32 partition to exchange files, or install a ext2 driver on windows to read ext2/ext3 and probably write it
[03:29] <SAM_theman> brb
[03:29] <zewo> amortvigil: explore2fs is something i have used to copy files from linux into windows when i was using the default ubuntu filesystem of ext2fs
[03:29] <DavidJaq> no :( Give me the command to do that... is it sudo apt-get install unbuntu-desktop?
[03:29] <zewo> ext3fs i mean
[03:30] <Jowi> DavidJaq: yep
[03:30] <Jowi> brb
[03:30] <DavidJaq> I'll try that and be right back
[03:30] <matt0440> jemi: is there a command for it?
[03:30] <amortvigil> void^: okay:) but i aint got windows
[03:30] <Jemt> matt0440: Yep, sec
[03:30] <zewo> amortvigil: lol :)
[03:31] <matt0440> jemi: k thx
[03:31] <amortvigil> zewo: does that work in linux either?
[03:31] <void^> amortvigil: just get rid of ntfs then
[03:31] <mmatnj> pa here
[03:31] <mmatnj> philly
[03:31] <zewo> amortvigil: no explore2fs is a windows program to write to ntfs
[03:31] <chennaituxian> amortvigil: whats ur problem ?
[03:31] <zewo> amortvigil: from ext2 and ext3 filesystem
[03:31] <cef> zewo: you mean that allows access to ext2
[03:31] <zenithsN00b> I have no acceptable C compiler, what do I need to install... it's on the tip of my tounge
[03:31] <zewo> cef: yeah getting confused in my typing :D
[03:31] <chennaituxian> zenithsN00b: gcc
[03:31] <tritium_away> zenithsN00b: build-essential
[03:32] <amortvigil> chennaituxian: i have only linux on my computer but an nttfs disk with all my wondows information how to get the information on linux
[03:32] <mmatnj> any idea of where to get a cisco vpn client for ubuntu?
[03:32] <zenithsN00b> ok thanks!
[03:32] <Jemt> matt0440: I think this is what you need : 'apt-get install gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg'
[03:32] <tritium> zenithsN00b: you'll want build-essential, as it has more than just gcc as dependencies
[03:32] <Jemt> matt0440: Wait - you are using Dapper, right?
[03:32] <shifa^away> help! just want to know is LAMP ready with mail, web, DNS, file serving ?
[03:32] <Faileas> amortvigil: i think there's a readonly NTFS driver
[03:32] <amortvigil> yeb
[03:32] <zewo> amortvigil: ubuntu should have mounted your ntfs disk during install? yeah mine did, and its a readonly NTFS
[03:32] <Killaz> guys I need some help configuring ulogd.... for my firewall (shorewall) can you help me?
[03:32] <zenithsN00b> I think it was build-essential I was trying to think of.
[03:32] <Jemt> shifa^away: LAMP is Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP - no web server
[03:33] <Faileas> shifa^away: as far as i can tell, you need to install the mailserver yerself
[03:33] <Jemt> shifa^away: No MAIL server :)
[03:33] <cef> Jemt: was about to say.. apache IS a web server
[03:33] <gharz> anyone here who uses Konica Minolta Magicolor 2300W?
[03:33] <pinkisntwell> how do i upgrade to dapper using the alternate cd?
[03:33] <amortvigil> Faileas: indeed its readonly  so i cant use them
[03:33] <C-O-L-T> I use Ubuntu 6.06 and cannot connect to the internet via nor via DHCP neither via Static IP. Under WIN XP everything works well.
[03:33] <chennaituxian> amortvigil: AFAIK, ntfs is readable, only writing is not adviced
[03:33] <amortvigil> zewo: indeed its readonly  so i cant use them
[03:33] <Jemt> cef: I know. It was a typo :)
[03:33] <Killaz> uhmmm so noone with some ulogd experience?
[03:33] <Faileas> amortvigil: you can copy then ;p
[03:33] <zewo> amortvigil: you mean you can't even see the files on the disk?
[03:34] <amortvigil> zewo: indeed
[03:34] <shifa^away> Jemt Faileas  ooo ic
[03:34] <chennaituxian> amortvigil: why don't u copy those data u need, from ntfs to ur linux ?
[03:34] <mig> hello i've a little newbie's question...
[03:34] <amortvigil> zewo: i can see them only in root mode but them iu cant move them
[03:34] <Jemt> C-O-L-T: Your network adapter is properly installed ?
[03:34] <Faileas> shifa^away: good rule of thumb, watch boot
[03:34] <Faileas> shifa^away: all the servers need to initialise then
[03:34] <amortvigil> chennaituxian: i can see them only in root mode but them iu cant move them
[03:35] <zewo> amortvigil: ok, way to mount them properly is under system->administration->disks
[03:35] <robewald> hi, i have problems with the norwegian keymap on a blueberry imac in dapper drake
[03:35] <C-O-L-T> Jemt: I suppose because sometimes works my network and sometimes not it is like weather :)
[03:35] <SAM_theman> Yo hate to be rude but anyone here has skype
[03:35] <chennaituxian> u dont move 'mv' u copy 'cp'
[03:35] <mig> hello everybody.   Do this discution IRC could works with firefox, with Java runtimes environment ???
[03:35] <Jemt> C-O-L-T: Is it a wireless card ?
[03:35] <robewald> how can I boot into the shell?
[03:35] <robewald> on said imac
[03:36] <C-O-L-T> Jemt: no it is an Nvidia Ethernet Card and I use LAN
[03:36] <Faileas> discution?
[03:36] <shifa^away> Faileas I want to install something to operate my xp with ubuntu, but what should I install, some people recommend me SAMBA, other than that what else can be install?
[03:36] <william__> If I get a program from .deb source do I do dpkg to use it?
[03:36] <mig> discussion
[03:36] <Jemt> C-O-L-T: does 'ifconfig -a' display your card ?
[03:36] <bernier> what does that mean? debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process
[03:36] <mig> i'm french :)
[03:36] <amortvigil> zewo: it's set to active
[03:36] <chennaituxian> shifa^away: what u mean by operate xp with ubuntu, u have 2 systems ?
[03:37] <amortvigil> zewo: too /home/amortvigil/Desktop/hdd
[03:37] <jimcooncat> mig, if you find a java IRC client it should
[03:37] <Faileas> shifa^away: Samba is good, or you could install FTP servers in each system
[03:37] <mig> OK !
[03:37] <jimcooncat> mig, simpler to use gaim or xchat
[03:37] <xmoogle> eep, big channel. umm, i was kinda wondering where in the ubuntu menus the terminal was. such as gnome-terminal or whatever, trying to help someone with it and i don't know where to get her to launch a graphical terminal from (as while i'm familiar with unix/linux i don't know ubuntu specifically and the terminal doesn't seem easily findable)...
[03:37] <matt0440> jemi: yes im on dapper
[03:37] <mig> ok
[03:37] <mig> thanks
[03:37] <C-O-L-T> Jemt: I can not say because now I am in windows and if I boot to ubuntu I don't have net so I always have to boot in order to talk with you. But I have tried to use Static IP and everything, I tried iptables --flush, everything and sometimes works and sometimes not
[03:37] <zewo> amortvigil: and the status is set to accessible?
[03:37] <daxxar> xmoogle, press 'Applications' in the top-left, then 'Accessories', then 'Terminal'. :-)
[03:37] <Faileas> shifa^away: personally, zeroconf is the best but its not very supported by both linux and windows
[03:37] <shifa^away> chennaituxian Faileas What actually I mean is I want to access by network places in xp
[03:37] <xmoogle> ty daxxar :)
[03:38] <Faileas> shifa^away: samba then, definately
[03:38] <chennaituxian> use samba,
[03:38] <amortvigil> zewo: where can you check that?? there is a button next to the activation butoon in wich i van enter them maps
[03:38] <mig> i thinked that could work with java environment but....no ok
[03:38] <shifa^away> Faileas chennaituxian oic..
[03:38] <mig> sorry for my english
[03:38] <Jemt> C-O-L-T: Well, don't touch things you don't understand - I don't understand the IP tables either, heh. Anyways, are you SURE there is a DHCP service running ?
[03:38] <chennaituxian> mig, what u want is a IRC which works in java environment ?
[03:38] <amortvigil> zewo: when i enter it says : you have not enough rights to enter
[03:39] <cr3> how do I enable Ubuntu to join the Windows domain?
[03:39] <Jemt> C-O-L-T: If you have DHCP running, then we'll go with that
[03:39] <SAM_theman> Hold on I have to take the trash out
[03:39] <zewo> amortvigil: on mine i have device, filesystem, access_path, size, status and next to status i have disable / browse
[03:39] <bernier> hi, I installed java and frostwire but please take a look at the orror message it gives me when I open frostwire with the konsole
[03:39] <bernier> http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/767284
[03:39] <Faileas> mig: try PJIRC or ...
[03:39] <C-O-L-T> Jemt: under windows works well, my provider says that they recognize computers from their ethernet card address so called MAC address.
[03:39] <mig> i am on  www.ubuntu-fr and i click on irc
[03:40] <gharz> guys, i tried playing a VCD and i got this message => Totem could not play 'vcd:///media/cdrom0'.  There is no input plugin to handle the location of this movie... what does it mean?
[03:40] <Faileas> OHHH
[03:40] <mig> and firefox say java is requiered
[03:40] <Jemt> C-O-L-T: Ok, good.
[03:40] <Faileas> mig: then install java ;p
[03:40] <mig> thats all :)
[03:40] <zewo> amortvigil: on my working system the values are: device=/dev/sda5, filesystem=WindowsNTFS, accesspath=/media/d_drive, size=157GB, 123Gb free, Status= Accessible
[03:40] <shifa^away> why everytime I type useradd blabla, then home directory for blabla wasnt created
[03:40] <C-O-L-T> Jemt: so what is the problem
[03:40] <tat> dpkg gives me this error when i run aptitude install or upgrade: "dpkg: fgets gave an empty string from diversions [i] "
[03:40] <shifa^away> help!! why everytime I type useradd blabla, then home directory for blabla wasnt created
[03:41] <tat> anyone got an idea of whats wrong?
[03:41] <Jemt> C-O-L-T: But next time you boot into Ubuntu, notice the boot-splash screen! There might be errors [failed]  messages. Then, from a console, try 'ifconfig -a' to see if the card is found. If a IP is not assigned, try 'dhclient eth0' (eth0 is the name of your network card)
[03:41] <tat> (running dapper lts)
[03:41] <Hawkins> How can I get a custom resolution work, running on Ubuntu 32bit Dapper / Gnome / ATI / fglrx ?
[03:41] <C-O-L-T> Jemt: I have tried dhclient eth0 and cannot connect to network
[03:41] <zewo> amortvigil: remount it using this disks tool to a different folder - i had your exact same problem under breezy
[03:41] <Jemt> C-O-L-T: Unfortunately, my wireless network card is not reliable in Dapper either. It is found on every 3rd boot - so I haft to use my wired LAN instead
[03:41] <mig> i tried with command line but no result
[03:42] <mig> i followed instructions but result
[03:42] <Jemt> C-O-L-T: Any errors ?
[03:42] <mig> no result
[03:42] <matt0440> jemi: the command worked just its not letting me play mpeg's
[03:42] <mig> anyway
[03:42] <daxxar> How can I tell Ubuntu that the system time (BIOS) is not UTC? (I'm running a dualboot with Windows, and my Windows relies on it being the local time)
[03:42] <shifa^away> help!! why everytime I type useradd blabla, then home directory for blabla wasnt created. do i have to create it manually?
[03:43] <Jemt> matt0440: Are you sure it is mpeg? You cannot trust extensions (.mpg)
[03:43] <amortvigil> okay:)
[03:43] <C-O-L-T> Jemt: I am gonna boot to ubuntu now look for errors and something any useful commands which I can try in terminal>?
[03:43] <SAM_theman> Ok back
[03:43] <gharz> guys, i tried playing a VCD and i got this message => Totem could not play 'vcd:///media/cdrom0'.  There is no input plugin to handle the location of this movie... what does it mean?
[03:43] <Faileas> daxxar: at install?
[03:43] <daxxar> After instal. =)
[03:43] <Jemt> C-O-L-T: Good
[03:43] <daxxar> install*
[03:44] <mlopes> Hi. I'm about to make a software raid in ubuntu server 6.06. Can anyone tell me how can I format the partitions as Linux RAID from the shell? I've installed the system already a long time ago
[03:44] <tritium> daxxar: look at /etc/default/rcS, and make sure it says UTC=no
[03:45] <tat> Im running Dapper LTS and dpkg gives me this error when i run aptitude install or upgrade: "dpkg: fgets gave an empty string from diversions [i] " Anyone got an idea of whats wrong, and how to fix it?
[03:45] <matt0440> jemi: its not working should i restart my computer?
[03:45] <mlopes> btw, following this instructions http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_software_raid
[03:46] <daxxar> Thanks tritium.
[03:46] <zenithsN00b> arghg ...  how do I install gtk?
[03:46] <alchemist> does anyone have a pointer on how to make the included madwifi-ng the default vs. the old madwifi?
[03:46] <zewo> shifa^away: you need to use the -k option to force the creation of user home directory
[03:46] <jighead> mlopes, use fdisk to format the partitons and set their type to fd
[03:47] <SAM_theman> brb
[03:47] <tritium> zenithsN00b: it's already installed for gnome apps.  Do you mean the development libraries?
[03:47] <zewo> shifa^away: sorta like 'useradd -k ....'
[03:47] <shifa^away> useradd -k zewo just like that??
[03:47] <jighead> mlopes, fdisk will write your partition table and you will lose all data on the disk
[03:47] <zenithsN00b> well I'm trying to install nmap, and it says gtk isn't installed and it cant use a gui.
[03:47] <zenithsN00b> tritium^
[03:47] <gharz> what's the command line to check the version of a certain installed package? in fedora it's rpm -q <package name> and for ubuntu?
[03:47] <shifa^away> zewo useradd -k zewo just like that??
[03:48] <michael117> !tell xgl
[03:48] <mlopes> I'll try it! thks jighead
[03:48] <tritium> zenithsN00b: apt-cache depends nmap doesn't list gtk as a dependecy
[03:48] <zewo> shifa^away: i think so - i just looked in the man page to be honest ... 'man useradd'
[03:48] <michael117> !tell michael117 xgl
[03:48] <michael117> !tell xgl michael117
[03:48] <amortvigil> zewo: i changed it to /root/Desktop/zxzzx but now i even aint able to get in at root mode
[03:48] <Fjodor> !xgl
[03:48] <ubotu> I guess xgl is "XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeManager - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems.  Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/"
[03:48] <amortvigil> im going to gormat it as ext3
[03:48] <michael117> thanks
[03:48] <cef> zenithsN00b: what's complaining about gtk? when you try to install nmap or nmap itself?
[03:49] <michael117> gormat... hehe
[03:49] <amortvigil> zewo: i'm going to format it as ext3
[03:49] <DavidJaq> Jowi, guess what?
[03:49] <Jowi> DavidJaq: ? please tell :)
[03:49] <DavidJaq> I'm chatting at you from my Linux installation :)
[03:49] <zewo> amortvigil: lets try a safe option first and put it into /media like i did we know its working for me
[03:49] <mlopes> jighead, do you know the option to format a partition through fdisk? didn't find one
[03:49] <Jowi> cool DavidJaq so ubuntu-desktop was all that was needed?
[03:49] <amortvigil> zewo: okkie
[03:49] <mlopes> jighead, no problem, these are brand new Seagate 160GB hdds :-)
[03:49] <jighead> mlopes, when you open fdisk, hit m, and you will get a list of options
[03:49] <DavidJaq> actually, I needed dpkg --configure -a
[03:49] <jighead> mlopes, n will create a new part
[03:50] <DavidJaq> or something like that
[03:50] <zenithsN00b> cef, I'll pastbin it, hold up...
[03:50] <zewo> amortvigil: am assuming you know what will happen if you format as ext3 - you will lose all data on that disk
[03:50] <DavidJaq> I went to install ubuntu desktop and it gave me an error saying I needed to type that dpkg thing so I did, then it put me back at the login screen so I logged in... and here I am
[03:50] <Jowi> DavidJaq: ah, ok, as in the upgrade wiki. happy it worked well for you :)
[03:50] <mlopes> but it doesn't ask me for the partition type
[03:50] <shifa^away> zewo hmm..
[03:51] <jighead> mlopes, use t to set the type
[03:51] <zewo> shifa^away: did it work?
[03:51] <DavidJaq> Don't cheer too soon... it told me I needed to reboot and rebooting is where my problem always starts... so I may be back in here with a new problem in just a moment. Wish me luck.
[03:51] <jighead> mlopes, use l to see a list of part types
[03:51] <michael117> What ever happened to that one wavy watery graphical thing that was shown for red hat a few years ago?
[03:51] <mlopes> ohh, it's a hidden feature :-)
[03:51] <jighead> mlopes, but fd is the one you want for raid auto-detect
[03:51] <jighead> mlopes, nope, it all shows up if you hit m for help
[03:51] <mlopes> I did and it didn't show up
[03:52] <shifa^away> zewo nope
[03:52] <mlopes> err
[03:52] <mlopes> never mind
[03:52] <amortvigil> zewo: i know:( but i realy need it:(
[03:52] <jighead> mlopes, :)
[03:52] <mlopes> it's called change a partition's system id
[03:52] <mlopes> :-)
[03:52] <mlopes> thanks for your precious help!"
[03:52] <amortvigil> zewo: i tried it diddnt do well either
[03:52] <zewo> amortvigil: thats ok, so long as you are ok about losing the data on the ntfs disk
[03:53] <mlopes> btw, is there any CLI GUI for mdadm?
[03:53] <mlopes> :-)
[03:53] <mlopes> it would help a lot
[03:53] <zewo> Jenny_buntu: : can you type here the exact command like you are trying to run?
[03:53] <zenithsN00b> I pastebined it...  "GUI's are for wimps"...  to all who are helping me with the GTK nmap thing...   http://pastebin.com/767333
[03:54] <DavidJaq> Jowi, well, I just rebooted and all seems fine :)
[03:54] <Jenny_buntu> zewo I want to sudo useradd kamal <- but this isnt create kamal home directory
[03:54] <cef> zenithsN00b: any particular reason you're compiling it?
[03:54] <Jowi> cool DavidJaq
[03:55] <zenithsN00b> Yeah, I just like security as a hobby.
[03:55] <DavidJaq> thanks for all the help, Jowi. I owe you a great many.
[03:55] <zewo> Jenny_buntu: you must run 'sudo useradd --create-home kamal'
[03:55] <Jowi> DavidJaq: np. glad i could help
[03:55] <cef> zenithsN00b: ahh ok.. well you need to tell the nmap compile process to not use gtk most likely, or install the gtk devel libs
[03:56] <cef> zenithsN00b: you are aware you can just install it though, without compiling your own version
[03:56] <cef> ??
[03:56] <zewo> Jenny_buntu: or you can also go to the System->Administration->Users and Groups tool and add the new user there if you have the desktop installed.
[03:56] <jighead> mlopes, i am not aware of one, and searching apt for raid and md doesn't turn anything up
[03:56] <zenithsN00b> cef oh how so, I am not sure what to type in bash?
[03:56] <zenithsN00b> cef to do it the simple way.
[03:56] <zenithsN00b> cef or is it in add programs?
[03:57] <cef> zenithsN00b: to just install nmap try "sudo apt-get install nmap" or go through synaptic
[03:57] <zenithsN00b> k I'll try that and brb let you know cef, thx!
[03:57] <mlopes> jighead, it turns out that it's pretty simple.. mdadm --create --verbose /dev/md0 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/hda1 /dev/hdc1 note to self: google is my friend!
[03:57] <mlopes> ;-)
[03:57] <Jenny_buntu> zewo no I dont have desktop install
[03:58] <zewo> Jenny_buntu: OK then just run the command as 'sudo useradd --create-home kamal' :)
[03:58] <SAM_theman> Guys wtf ]
[03:58] <SAM_theman> http://pastebin.com/767342
[03:58] <SAM_theman> and I have my nvidia drivers install
[03:58] <SCOttlebut> ALl -- Just installed 5.10 then upgraded to 6.06.  Looking for gdm-stop, gdm-restart commands (see man gdm) but can't find them anywhere.  What's up with that?
[03:58] <whizz-> can the high scores in gnometris, etc be reset?
[03:58] <Jenny_buntu> zewo then to remove user?
[03:59] <starkmjolk> eavning :)
[03:59] <zewo> Jenny_buntu: 'sudo userdel -r kamal'
[04:01] <traveller> i'm using dapper amd64, tvtime is giving me static for audio, does anyone know how to fix this?
[04:01] <Hexidigital_> good morning everyone
[04:01] <Jenny_buntu> zewo ok it help me lot thanks
[04:01] <zewo> Jenny_buntu: no problem. If you want to lookup the help on those commands try use the 'man useradd' or 'man userdel' command and it will bring up a help screen#
[04:02] <starkmjolk> there seem to be an issue with hardware compability for my laptop in dapper
[04:02] <jighead> SCOttlebut, use /etc/init.d/gdm [stop|start|restart]
[04:02] <wizzlefish> me too, starkmjolk ;)
[04:02] <starkmjolk> after doing my dist-upgrade, the sound stopped responding at all
[04:02] <starkmjolk> (compaq armada m700)
[04:02] <Judeu_Errante> buenas
[04:02] <Hexidigital_> starkmjolk:: are you using alsa?
[04:02] <SCOttlebut> jighead, OK, but where are the other commands? ANy idea why they are not installed?
[04:03] <wizzlefish> hey that happened to me, too, starkmjolk - then I reinstalled completely and it was fine
[04:03] <Hexidigital_> Judeu_Errante:: hablas inglais?
[04:03] <Judeu_Errante> Hexidigital_,  a little bit
[04:03] <starkmjolk> Hexidigital_: to be honest I can't recall. :) I've never had to struggle much on the hardware side in linux (:
[04:03] <jighead> SCOttlebut, nope, you can use which or locate to see if they are still around
[04:03] <zenithsN00b> Cef, thanks, I got it to work with Synaptic
[04:03] <Hexidigital_> Judeu_Errante:: vas #ubuntu-es
[04:03] <Hexidigital_> starkmjolk:: in a terminal, type alsamixer
[04:03] <gharz> why is my machine can't play VCD? i can play DVD. :((
[04:04] <Judeu_Errante> Hexidigital_, thanks, #ubuntu-br
[04:04] <starkmjolk> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[04:04] <SCOttlebut> jighead, yeah, tried that, they are AWOL.    I guess the man pages need updating.
[04:04] <Hexidigital_> Judeu_Errante:: :) lo siento
[04:04] <Judeu_Errante> Hexidigital_, why "lo siento"?
[04:05] <Hexidigital_> Judeu_Errante:: wrong dialect
[04:05] <Judeu_Errante> bueno
[04:05] <Judeu_Errante> :)
[04:05] <Hexidigital_> starkmjolk:: one moment
[04:05] <starkmjolk> Hexidigital_: sure man. :)
[04:06] <sapperjanko> I have just installed ubuntu but havint problems getting into it
[04:07] <sapperjanko> it somes up saying could not open default font 'fixed'
[04:07] <Hexidigital_> starkmjolk:: type ls /dev/snd/controlC0
[04:08] <sapperjanko> is anyone able to help me my question
[04:08] <SCOttlebut> jighead, OK -- so I killed gdm. any idea how to recover my screen, short of rebooting?  the keyboard doesn't respond, but I'm ssh'd in from another box
[04:08] <jbirdAngel> is doing sudo network-admin the only way to get online in ubuntu? or atleast if i use WEP, and there isnt a way for it to remember my wep key?
[04:08] <jighead> SCOttlebut, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[04:08] <starkmjolk> Hexidigital_: it's there, anything you wanted to know?
[04:08] <Sir_Brizz> sapperjanko, did you install Dapper?
[04:08] <Hexidigital_> starkmjolk:: are you registered in freenode?
[04:09] <starkmjolk> don't think so no
[04:09] <Hexidigital_> ubotu:: tell starkmjolk about register
[04:09] <zewo> jbirdAngel: it should be storing the WEP key in /etc/network/interfaces
[04:09] <Hexidigital_> starkmjolk:: follow those directions, and private message me when finished
[04:09] <Hexidigital_> starkmjolk:: the directions from ubotu
[04:10] <jbirdAngel> zewo: okay ya its there, but when i started the comp up it didnt automatically get online i did sudo network-admin and typed it in as it wasnt already there
[04:10] <starkmjolk> got it Hexidigital_, thanks
[04:11] <sapperjanko> Sir_Brizz: I think so
[04:11] <Hexidigital_> starkmjolk:: when you are done, private message me the output from that command
[04:11] <jbirdAngel> it said this is this okay ** (network-admin:5091): CRITICAL **: gst_xml_element_set_content: assertion `no de != NULL' failed
[04:11] <Sir_Brizz> sapperjanko, Ubuntu or Kubuntu or Xubuntu?
[04:11] <sapperjanko> Ubuntu
[04:11] <Sir_Brizz> hmm...
[04:12] <Sir_Brizz> what kind of video card?
[04:12] <wizzlefish> how do I get rid of a link emblem on a link to a folder I made? It's not listed in "emblems"
[04:12] <sapperjanko> S3
[04:12] <zewo> jbirdAngel: hmm weird. bit of a newbie myself so can't really help beyond saying that if its configured in /etc/network/interfaces it should remember across reboots. because network admin tool is just a user interface that writes stuff into that file.
[04:12] <sapperjanko> s3 trio 3d/2x
[04:12] <Sir_Brizz> sapperjanko, in the past that error was related to the video card driver being loaded wrong or not at all
[04:13] <jbirdAngel> zewo: okay maybe i need to comment outh the eht0 stuff i think they had me do that before on kubuntu, not sure if it was the same file tho
[04:13] <rizuntu> Is there a HOWTO on how to use the "open source" ATI driver?
[04:13] <jbirdAngel> zewo: do you know if that thing the terminal said after doing sudo network-admin is okay?
[04:13] <usuario> hghgih
[04:13] <usuario> jkj
[04:13] <sapperjanko> Sir_Brizz: well i have tried three that it could have been
[04:13] <rizuntu> I got bit by bug #47371 with the binary ATI driver
[04:13] <torrentwoes> do i have to run firestarter to be able to use bittorrent?
[04:13] <sapperjanko> i have done s3, s3virge, vesa
[04:13] <wizzlefish> ugh
[04:13] <Sir_Brizz> Someone here know how to load the generic video card driver? I can't remember
[04:14] <zewo> jbirdAngel: yes its OK i'm a software developer myself and although its a log message telling an error if the network admin tool opened and you used it then its probably OK
[04:14] <adamant1988> is there any virtualization software included in the Ubuntu repos?
[04:14] <LeaChim> adamant1988, qemu
[04:14] <lemsx1> hello all
[04:15] <lemsx1> anybody has any idea why do Xv colors (video) go back (or how to fix them)
[04:15] <lemsx1> i have two ubuntu dapper boxes side-by-side. one has good colors in videos and the other doesn't
[04:15] <Ng> lemsx1: are you using totem? its preferences have a hue slider that can often compensate for strange Xv discolouration
[04:15] <jbirdAngel> zewo: okay thank you, im kinda concerned i get that error, xchat-gnome was crashing when id try to use the xchat systray plugin (im guessing its not compatible with xchat-gnome) and adept/synaptics often doesnt open, i thought it was supposed to do stuff like that less than windows, not more, no offense
[04:16] <jbirdAngel> not concrend just wondering
[04:16] <zewo> jbirdAngel: no offence taken lol its not my software :D when i said i develop software i meant in a commercial sense for another company
[04:17] <lemsx1> Ng: everything that uses video looks bad. totem included. i just tried Helix PLayer and Real Player
[04:17] <tempered> I used the server disk to do a lamp install, but I wasn't asked for a superuser account.  I want to setup SFTP... what do I do?
[04:17] <zewo> jbirdAngel: its just the kinda junk that developers leave in their programs, the only reason you saw it is because you started the program from the console otherwise you wouldnt have normally seen it :)
[04:17] <jbirdAngel> zewo: i didnt htink you meant you do it for ubuntu, but didnt want to upset anyone by my comment as i think sometimes people get too upset
[04:17] <zewo> jbirdAngel: oki doke :)
[04:17] <lemsx1> Ng: changing the video output sink in multimedia preferences yields the same for SDL and No Xv
[04:18] <jbirdAngel> zewo: well thank you for yoru help
[04:18] <Ng> lemsx1: hmm, that's quite strange
[04:18] <lemsx1> Ng: i'm actually starting to think that the video card is bad... who knows
[04:18] <zewo> jbirdAngel: one more suggestion then, perhaps you can backup the interfaces file in its present working state so you can go back to it easily
[04:18] <Ng> lemsx1: might be worth checking that X is running in enough colours
[04:18] <oezguer> hi, Why ist the Sound Quality of XMMS very bad when i listen some Radios? :8
[04:18] <MikkelRev> How to setup my soundcard in ubuntu ?
[04:18] <lemsx1> Ng: yep. X does run with millions of colors at 1280x1024 (LCD display)
[04:19] <chamo> How can I show a custom popup in gnome ?
[04:19] <Ng> lemsx1: I'm not sure then, sorry
[04:19] <jbirdAngel> zewo: okay thank you
[04:19] <djcabz> how nice... I notice with dapper I am now able to come out of hibernation on my Dell.  Good...
[04:19] <jbirdAngel> zewo: ill try commenting out the ehto's first
[04:19] <lemsx1> Ng: both computers use the same display setting. the same monitor plug to both. etc... but, the computers themselves are different. one is HP other IBM
[04:19] <jbirdAngel> er eth0
[04:19] <zewo> jbirdAngel: sure go for it :)
[04:19] <lemsx1> Ng: no problem. is just weird
[04:19] <Ng> lemsx1: do you have a spare graphics card you could test with?
[04:19] <tempered> is the LAMP install what I should of done ?   why didn't it ask for a su account?
[04:20] <Faileas> tempered: there's no root
[04:20] <Rootsy> Can someone point me toward information on higher resolution than 1280x1024 for dapper drake?
[04:20] <Faileas> use sudo and the first accoint to do it
[04:20] <tempered> thank you
[04:20] <xxyyzz> I just tried to do "sudo chmod 755 /usr/bin" and it said "xxyyzz is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported."... reported to whom?
[04:20] <izi> hello, is there something i can check to know why my laptop freezes randomly ? I have nothing in the log files...
[04:20] <jighead> Rootsy, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:20] <lemsx1> Ng: this box only takes PCI cards and i have no card at this moment
[04:21] <tempered> can anyone direct me to a STFP install doc?
[04:21] <lemsx1> Ng: i was wondering if there is anything from gconf or some obscure setting somewhere...
[04:21] <Soir> xxyyzz: whoever owns the box? If it's you, then you haven't put that user in the right group. ^^
[04:21] <Ng> lemsx1: not as far as i know
[04:21] <xxyyzz> Soir, I own the computer
[04:21] <xxyyzz> Soir, how do I change who is in which group?
[04:21] <xxyyzz> Is it juts "Users & Groups" in the menu?
[04:21] <xxyyzz> just*
[04:21] <lemsx1> Ng: xvinfo is no help either
[04:22] <lemsx1> Ng: it shows the same output for both systems
[04:22] <Soir> xxyyzz: It should be. I assume that there's more than one user account on your machine?
[04:22] <xxyyzz> Yep
[04:22] <florian> hi, is there a good free mathematical software to differentiate, matrix multiplication and so on ?
[04:23] <xxyyzz> Soir, thanks I will try Users & Groups
[04:23] <Soir> xxyyzz: Yeah, so go on one that can sudo and then set group, it should work then
[04:23] <xxyyzz> aaaah
[04:23] <xxyyzz> ic
[04:23] <l3dx> Am I the only one getting kernel panic when trying to boot ubuntu-6.06-desktop-i386 ?
[04:23] <XplOzIon> has anyone installed a ventrilo server?
[04:24] <tempered> can anyone help me setup SFTP on a LAMP install?
[04:24] <lemsx1> florian: anything wrong with octave ?
[04:25] <xxyyzz> Soir, do you know where the sudo-attempts get reported? Is there a file I should look for?
[04:25] <lemsx1> tempered: sftp is setup as soon as you install openssh-server
[04:25] <florian> lemsx1: didn't even hear of it until now, i'll try it
[04:25] <tempered> so:  sudo apt-get install openssh-server?
[04:25] <MikkelRev> How to setup my sound and wireless networkingcard in ubuntu ?
[04:25] <izi> my laptop freezes under dapper, but works fine under winXP and openbsd, it 's a sony vaio pcg-k115, anyone has the same problem here ? i'm stuck...
[04:25] <power1> Is Intel GMA950 supported by Linux?
[04:26] <lemsx1> l3dx: how much ram is in the box that you are using to test that CD ? you need more than 128mb
[04:26] <tempered> by default does ubuntu look for other places besides that install cd for packages?
[04:26] <lemsx1> florian: octave is poor-man's Matemathica for Linux ;-)
[04:26] <jbirdAngel> im looking for the link on ubuntulinux.nl that has the auto mount partitions thing on it?
[04:26] <lemsx1> florian: or that other famous math program. i can't recall it now...
[04:27] <l3dx> lemsx1: 512
[04:27] <lemsx1> tempered: no. you have to enable the sources in Synaptic
[04:27] <Soir> xxyyzz: My first thought is that they get shown as soon as root logs in. But of course, on ubuntu, root never logs in. Might be worth thumbing through /var/log anyway though
[04:27] <zero> hello
[04:27] <lemsx1> l3dx: weird. are you sure that the md5sum of that ISO you burned matched the one online?
[04:27] <florian> lemsx1: i tried scilab, but that didn't work fine. what about axoim?
[04:27] <lemsx1> l3dx: try burning the ISO to a different media (other brand name) and perhaps use a different computer to burn it
[04:27] <florian> axiom
[04:28] <l3dx> I haven't tested, but Iv'e downloaded it twice, from different mirrors
[04:28] <zero> so
[04:28] <lemsx1> florian: never heard of any of those. i always use octave
[04:28] <zero> i just uprgraded my Ubuntu to dapper
[04:28] <florian> lemsx1: installed it, will try it now, thank you
[04:28] <tempered> lemsx1: thank you.   Is there a tutorial about how to do the basics of ubuntu setup?   like configuring repositories and such?
[04:28] <zero> before i upraded, installers wouldnt run at all
[04:28] <zero> NOW
[04:28] <lemsx1> florian: i'm not an octave master, but solving matrix is one of the many things octave can do well
[04:28] <zero> they only run in terminal
[04:28] <lemsx1> florian: np
[04:28] <zero> can anyone help me?
[04:29] <lemsx1> tempered: wiki.ubuntu.com ?
[04:29] <tempered> thank you I'll read
[04:29] <lemsx1> zero: what's the rpoblem?
[04:29] <zero> i want to run my installers for programs in GUI mode
[04:29] <l3dx> lemsx1, I'll try burnin' on a different computer then.. :)
[04:29] <eugman> Will the bottlaoder from the live isntall be able to detect xp?
[04:30] <florian> argh is there a possibility to let firefox not open pdf files in a browser tab?
[04:30] <sambrista> eugman: usually it does it
[04:30] <sambrista> eugman in most of the cases
[04:30] <kbrosnan> florian, are you using the adobe reader or an open source one?
[04:31] <zero> some installers wont run at all...
[04:31] <jighead> zero, can you provide an example, what are you trying to install?
[04:31] <zero> VMware
[04:32] <zero> i try and run the installer, wont go
[04:32] <florian> kbrosnan: using evince
[04:32] <jbirdAngel> anyone know the location of the auto diskmount script i can run to auto mount my partitions that is somehwere on ubuntulinux.nl
[04:32] <eugman> Heh, That usually sounds a bit unnerving like "This safety belt usually works." Of course I can always edit grub so it is no biggie. Let's say for some reason it didn;'t detect it. Would reisntalling grub so anything of use?
[04:32] <zero> try and go with the isntaller in the terminal, and it wont go either
[04:33] <kbrosnan> florian, the you need to find the plugin file and remove it often plugins are in firefox binary location/plugins
[04:34] <sas171> how can I change my titlebar fontcolor in the theme? Is it a metacity option or gtk?
[04:34] <gharz> i can't watch vcd ... it says => Totem could not play 'vcd://media/cdrom0'. No URl handler implemented for "vcd". what could be wrong?
[04:34] <gharz> please help
[04:34] <gharz> i've followed the wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictredFormats yet it doesn't work.
[04:34] <gavagai> When I run ubuntu as the live cd i get sound.  When I install, it recognizes no soundcard.  Why is it doing this?  I thought the point of the livecd was partially to see if your hardware works!
[04:34] <gnomefreak> 0000ghtry either w32codecs or totem-xine  im not sure about that format though
[04:35] <phos-phoros> hey all, after having installed ubuntu on a gateway solo laptop (500Mhz/32MB memory) and having taken the disc out, rebooted, after having the system configure/recognize hardware devices, I get open: Read-only file system
[04:35] <phos-phoros> /usr/sbin/termwrap: line 140: $tmpfile: ambiguous redirect
[04:35] <phos-phoros> /usr/sbin/base-config: line 31: /var/log/base-config.timings: Read-only file system
[04:35] <phos-phoros> any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
[04:35] <gnomefreak> s/0000ghtry/gharz try
[04:35] <phos-phoros> and then of course, the system just hangs
[04:35] <gharz> any idea would be greate appreciated.
[04:35] <gharz> gnomefreak, is that a command line?
[04:35] <gnomefreak> gharz: try w32codecs or totem-xine
[04:36] <gharz> gnomefreak, i've already installed w32codes and installed totem-xine. it doesn't work. i can't even play DVD.
[04:36] <skydragon38> anyone know the name of the program that can use windows-based wireless card drivers on linux
[04:37] <Bassetts> hi, i was wondering if there is a program like newton wiki for kubuntu?
[04:37] <Soir> skydragon38: ndiswrapper?
[04:37] <gnomefreak> gharz: im not sure than im assuming you have libdvdcss and libdvdread
[04:37] <drape> i changed my default runlevel in /etc/inittab to 3. how can i change the default virtual terminal?  it always starts at alt+ctrl+f8...
[04:37] <gharz> gnomefreak, i tried re installing it again. it says it's already installed.
[04:37] <cyne> how do i switch my laptop from mains power supply to battery power supply in ubuntu?
[04:37] <gnomefreak> gharz: can you play it in mplayer?
[04:38] <Soir> cyne: pull out the mains? :)
[04:38] <__mikem> cyne unplug the laptop
[04:38] <gharz> gnomefreak, nope. mplayer says error: seek failed
[04:38] <eugman> Gavagai, I'm not sure if this would apply to you but with some pieces of hardware sme tweaks with the installation would be needed to get things working. Check ubuntuforums to see if that's the case .
[04:38] <Hajuu> argh my tar keeps hanging when I try and extract this archive
[04:38] <Hajuu> grrr
[04:38] <Ng> Hajuu: how are you calling it?
[04:39] <Hajuu> ....
[04:39] <Ng> Hajuu: as in, what command are you running
[04:39] <Hajuu> how do you mean?
[04:39] <Frogzoo> Hajuu: cat the file & > /dev/null - to check you can read it
[04:39] <Hajuu> tar.
[04:39] <__mikem> .... should be a bad command
[04:39] <Ng> Hajuu: I meant the full command you used :)
[04:39] <cyne> Soir, it is strange... i bought my laptop 2 days ago... it seemed to be on "battery mode"... i.e. when i had the mains plugged in for ages the battery was fully charged and then the screen flashed and the system slowed down as a consequence until i unplugged
[04:39] <Hajuu> Frogzoo: its in my homedir so course I can read it
[04:39] <scorpix> how to stop popups in epiphany browser?
[04:39] <__mikem> bash: ....: command not found
[04:39] <Hajuu> Ng: tar -x archive.tar
[04:39] <Ng> Hajuu: tar -xf archive.tar
[04:39] <Hajuu> ah
[04:39] <Hajuu> my bad
[04:40] <Ng> Hajuu: otherwise it will be expecting an archive on stdin
[04:40] <gnomefreak> gharz: run this please sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh
[04:40] <cyne> Soir, and now i've somehow got it onto "mains mode" where i unplug the laptop, and it's like it has no battery at all
[04:40] <gnomefreak> gharz: let me know what that says
[04:40] <gnomefreak> or does
[04:40] <Zaggynl> Hi, how do I restart inetd? 'sudo /etc/init.d/inetd' wont work =(
[04:40] <Ng> Zaggynl: sudo /etc/init.d/inetd restart    ?
[04:40] <cyne> Soir, so you think it's more of a laptop issue than an ubuntu issue?
[04:40] <Soir> cyne: sounds like a strange laptop to me. mine uses mains when it has it, battery when it doesn't. But how the thing deals with power should exclusively be a hardware issue, yah
[04:41] <Zaggynl> Ng, ups I made a typo in that, I tried the restart thing after /etc ...
[04:41] <skydragon38> soir: much appreciated?
[04:41] <skydragon38> -?
[04:41] <Ng> Zaggynl: hmm. also you could try "killall -HUP inetd"
[04:42] <Zaggynl> okay
[04:42] <Ng> Zaggynl: but the init script should work (although it's /etc/init.d/inetutils-inetd on mine)
[04:42] <gharz> gnomefreak, http://papernapkin.org/pastebin/app/view/418
[04:42] <Zaggynl> Ng, did't work, ill try ineutils..
[04:42] <gnomefreak> gharz: good ;)
[04:42] <florian> kbrosnan: thank you, i uninstalled mozplugger, it know works
[04:43] <gnomefreak> gharz: restart totem and let me know if not i have one other thing that sticks out in my mind
[04:43] <Zaggynl> Ng, not there either :(
[04:43] <gharz> gnomefreak, ok. i'll do that.
[04:43] <Bjarkan> anyone with a palm tx that solve the sync problem?... any ideas?
[04:44] <gharz> gnomefreak,  i closed totem and tried playing a VCD and i got this message again => Totem could not play 'vcd:///media/cdrom0'.  There is no input plugin to handle the location of this movie.
[04:44] <gnomefreak> gharz: ok good
[04:45] <gnomefreak> gharz: sudo apt-get install regionset
[04:45] <rdz> hi all. i installed cpufreqd for some testing and then uninstalled it again. now when i start ubuntu, a popup tells me, that 'cpu frequency scaling is not working or not supported by my hardware or by misconfiguration'. what can i do in order to scale cpu frequency automatically again?
[04:45] <gharz> gnomefreak, regionset is already the newest version.
[04:45] <Bassetts> anyone know of a program like newton for KDE?
[04:45] <gnomefreak> gharz: is the dvd in the drive?
[04:45] <gharz> yes
[04:46] <gharz> gnomefreak, right now it's a vcd.
[04:46] <torrentwoes> what is the command to find out your ip?
[04:46] <gnomefreak> gharz: close totem and type in terminal regionset
[04:46] <rdz> torrentwoes, ifocnfig
[04:46] <torrentwoes> ty
[04:46] <rdz> torrentwoes, ifconfig
[04:46] <Zaggynl> Ng, this is really weird, /etc/inetd.conf exists
[04:46] <Zaggynl> Ng, also it does its job by starting my swat service
[04:46] <kane77> I thought I was past it but... How do I unpack something that looks like this   wsh.sh.gz   gzip -d wsh.sh.gz doesn't work...
[04:46] <gnomefreak> gharz: if the above doesnt work than im not real sure what next
[04:47] <Bjarkan> anyone with a palm tx that solve the sync problem?... any ideas?
[04:47] <jighead> rdz, is powernowd installed?
[04:48] <Zaggynl> anyone: how do you restart your inetd service?
[04:48] <gharz> gnomefreak, http://papernapkin.org/pastebin/app/view/419
[04:48] <Zaggynl> I'm using Ubuntu 6.06
[04:48] <torrentwoes> anybody know how to open a port?
[04:48] <mrmist> Hi all
[04:48] <Ixzat> is there a apt guru around here? i get the following when doing apt-get install postfix: update-rc.d: /etc/init.d/postfix: file does not exist, and then it quits
[04:48] <rdz> jighead, no it wasn't. thanks for the tipp
[04:48] <Deft> torrentwoes: a port is open if something is listening on it
[04:49] <jighead> torrentwoes, /etc/services controls allowed ports
[04:49] <rdz> jighead, but now it is still on 1,7GHz...
[04:49] <torrentwoes> how about forward a port then?
[04:49] <rdz> jighead, do i need to reboot?
[04:49] <Stormx2> What is an IP tunnel, and can ubuntu do it?
[04:49] <gnomefreak> gharz: try it again but im not sure what else to go with
[04:49] <kane77> I thought I was past it but... How do I unpack something that looks like this "wsh.sh.gz"   "gzip -d wsh.sh.gz" doesn't work...
[04:49] <gnomefreak> brb doggy wants out
[04:49] <jighead> rdz, powernowd tries to scale your cpu down as low as the sys load will allow
[04:49] <KenSentMe> Ixzat: this is the first time you install postfix on that system?
[04:50] <mrmist> I need to repartition one of my drives.. resize one partition, and create a new one... How do I do it ??
[04:50] <fourcheeze> anyone running kolab on dapper?
[04:50] <Ixzat> KenSentMe: no, i have been fiddling with postfix a few times now
[04:50] <jighead> so unless you are doing something intensive, it will report a lower freq
[04:50] <rdz> jighead, my cpu-load is 1% but still on 1,7GHz
[04:50] <tempered> I edited the /etc/apache2/apache2.conf to make the line: ServerRoot "/home/tempered/WWW" ( and I created a WWW directory there ) but it's still serving from the default.  I also restarted apache, how do I get apache to look in /home/tempered/WWW instead of the default?
[04:50] <KenSentMe> Ixzat: but this is a fresh install of postfix?
[04:50] <richiefrich> mrmist gparted/cfdisk/fdiak
[04:50] <jighead> rdz, do you expect it to be higher or lower?
[04:50] <fourcheeze> which bits of kolab do I need to get a working server on dapper?
[04:50] <richiefrich> s/fdiak/fdick
[04:50] <Ixzat> KenSentMe: well, i uninstalled it a few times aswell :)
[04:50] <jighead> rdz, you may just need to do sudo /etc/init.d/powernowd start
[04:50] <rdz> jighead, i expect it to go down to 600MHz
[04:51] <mrmist> richiefrich: I'm trying gparted now, but it won't let me choose "resize"
[04:51] <KenSentMe> Ixzat:  maybe you can do sudo apt-get --purge remove postfix
[04:51] <rdz> jighead, thanks, i'll try that
[04:51] <KenSentMe> Ixzat: so that all files are deleted
[04:51] <KenSentMe> Ixzat: maybe this works
[04:51] <mrmist> richiefrich: Am I doing something wrong ?
[04:51] <Killaz> guys maybe you can answer this? which of these log analyzers (firewall) would you recommend: fwanalog or lire?
[04:51] <richiefrich> mrmist well do u have on selected ?
[04:52] <Ixzat> KenSentMe: will try...
[04:52] <richiefrich> mrmist  what part.  type ?
[04:52] <mrmist> richiefrich: of course. I'm right clicking ON the disk
[04:52] <mrmist> it's an ext 3 partition type
[04:52] <richiefrich> mrmist  that maybe why
[04:52] <rdz> jighead, now i see; when i install cpufreqd, powernowd is going to be removed...
[04:53] <OneSeventeen> how do I know what to add as the location of my windows partition in grub?
[04:53] <mrmist> richiefrich: doesn't help to choose my ntfs-partition either
[04:53] <Stormx2> Is there an apache monitor of some sort for ubuntu, so I can see if any files are being downloaded?
[04:53] <richiefrich> mrmist  if it's jfs i kow u can enlarge them
[04:53] <rdz> jighead, i try to reboot and see what happens then..
[04:53] <MikkelRev> How do I set up my soundcard ?  when i try to play a mp3, "Totem could not startup... could not establish connection to sound server"
[04:53] <mrmist> richiefrich: maybe it's because I've got an op.sys on both ??
[04:53] <OneSeventeen> (the howto says assuming /dev/hda1 is the location, it would be hd0,0, but mine is /dev/sda2, so would that be sd0,1?)
[04:53] <richiefrich> mrmist thats not supported the ntfs... only experimental
[04:53] <KenSentMe> tempered: delete the default server in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled
[04:53] <mrmist> richiefrich: But the installer managed ?
[04:53] <Deft> Stormx2: any sort of apache log monitor will tell you that, it won't be an ubuntu specific thing
[04:54] <richiefrich> mrmist managed what
[04:54] <Killaz> guys maybe you can answer this? which of these log analyzers (firewall) would you recommend: fwanalog or lire?
[04:54] <Stormx2> Deft: ok ;) What is an apache log manager?
[04:54] <Ixzat> KenSentMe: worked like a charm... thanks, didnt know about --purge
[04:54] <mrmist> richiefrich: I had winxp on the machine. The installer resized the partition, and made a new ext3 partition to install Kubuntu
[04:55] <__mikem> My password on irc is really easy to guess, how do I know if someone has used it in the past without my permition?
[04:55] <KenSentMe> Ixzat: with remove you don't remove all config files etc. with --purge you completely remove all postfix files from your system
[04:55] <slg_> Hello all, need someone who can help me with a script  http://www.miraclesalad.com/webtools/clip.php?clip=35e
[04:55] <richiefrich> mrmist yes it does that.. but resizing them... is different
[04:55] <Stormx2> __mikem: is it mikem or password?
[04:55] <__mikem> no
[04:56] <rdz> jighead, it works now! many thanks for your help
[04:56] <gharz> gnomefreak, it doesn't work. i chose Region 2 (Europe, Middle East, etc). this is frustrating. :((
[04:56] <mrmist> How can that be any different? I just want to do exactly the same thing once more, only not installing ubuntu on the new partition
[04:56] <Killaz> I guess my questions cant be answered in this channel.... ;)
[04:56] <gharz> gnomefreak, my ofcmate also installed ubuntu but he can play DVD/VCD
[04:56] <OneSeventeen> If /dev/hda1 is (hd0,0), what is /dev/sda2 ?
[04:56] <__mikem> Killaz what question
[04:57] <slg_> last line -> update_fslist {}   http://www.miraclesalad.com/webtools/clip.php?clip=35e
[04:57] <karim> hi brothers
[04:57] <Ng> OneSeventeen: it's kinda hard to predict. if there are no other drives it will probably be hd1, but the only way to tell really is to fire up grub and have a look
[04:57] <Killaz> which of these log analyzers (firewall) would you recommend: fwanalog or lire?
[04:57] <Stormx2> How do I check to see if a package exists and where it is located, with ubotu?
[04:57] <Linuturk> where is the php.ini file in the LAMP install?
[04:57] <__mikem> Killaz, it really doesn't matter. Try them both.
[04:58] <xxyyzz> if you installed something with apt-get install <app>, and you don't like it, can you use apt-get to uninstall it?
[04:58] <KenSentMe> Linuturk: /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini ?
[04:58] <Killaz> __mikem: ok!
[04:58] <Ng> Linuturk: most likely in /etc/php5/apache2/ but it depends which versions of php and apache you are using
[04:58] <rdz> xxyyzz, apt-get remove <app>
[04:58] <__mikem> If one is a GUI based and the other is a CLI based, you should go with the gui based one though
[04:58] <Gilaun> OneSeventeen: Depends on the number of drives in you system.  It will always be hd#,# reguardless of drive type.
[04:58] <xxyyzz> rdz, thanks :-)
[04:58] <KenSentMe> xxyyzz: sudo apt-get remove
[04:58] <luc1fersflowers> Noob question> How do I get audio/video codecs for ubuntu? Do I need an all round AV program, or can I just integrate new codecs to make all AV files playable?
[04:58] <OneSeventeen> Ng: There is only one drive, but it is a SATA...
[04:58] <Ng> OneSeventeen: then it should still be hd0
[04:58] <KenSentMe> !tell luc1fersflowers about restricted
[04:59] <kane77> xvidcap: error while loading shared libraries: libpng.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory where can I get it???
[04:59] <OneSeventeen> Gilaun, Ng: cools, so probably (hd0,1) (since it is the second partition on the first drive)?
[04:59] <markgrif> Hello, What do I get so that xmms has some EQ settings like for rock,techo etc?
[04:59] <xxyyzz> I'm just curious why it's called "apt-get" if you're not actually getting anything... you're getting rid of something =/
[04:59] <Ng> OneSeventeen: yep
[04:59] <gnomefreak> gharz: this will play them gtkwave
[04:59] <eugman> Would having ubuntu taking up the first two partitions and windows the third work or does windows have to be on the primary partition?
[04:59] <KenSentMe> xxyyzz: don't ask such hard questions :p
[04:59] <luc1fersflowers> thank you KenSentMe
[04:59] <xxyyzz> heh
[04:59] <Ng> xxyyzz: because apt-get is the tool that sits on top of dpkg for manipulating the state of packages. you can do dpkg -r packagename, but it won't be as helpful with respect to dependencies
[04:59] <xxyyzz> aaah, okay
[04:59] <OneSeventeen> NG, Gilaun: Awsome, thanks guys
[05:00] <xxyyzz> Thanks :-)
[05:00] <KenSentMe> eugman: doesn't matter, as long as you isntall windows first
[05:00] <jighead> xxyyzz, you can use aptitude or synaptic if the question keeps you up at night ;)
[05:00] <xxyyzz> Synaptic is hard...
[05:00] <Gilaun> OneSeventeen:  Glad you got it.
[05:00] <Bassetts> anyone know of a program like newton for KDE?
[05:00] <joe_> hi, i'm trying to install gaim2.0 and apt-get tells me i'm missing deps? where can i find those?
[05:00] <gnomefreak> gharz: you can try installing libxine-extracodecs and than see if totem will play it
[05:00] <xxyyzz> I like apt-get 'cause you just type in one line
[05:00] <__mikem> YOu should be able to put windows on any partition. GRub doesn't actually boot windows, but will call the windows boot loader, its called "chainloading"
[05:00] <gharz> gnomefreak, ok
[05:00] <gharz> thanks for the help.
[05:00] <gharz> i'll check on this.
[05:00] <gnomefreak> gharz: yw
[05:01] <eugman> KenSentMe, You are referring to windows attitude of "Wheeeee installing new bootloader, Wheee" I'm asumming?
[05:01] <KenSentMe> joe_: doesn't it tell you what dependencies it's missing?
[05:01] <eugman> As to why it must be first
[05:01] <joe_> KenSentMe, yeah, but i don't know where to get them
[05:01] <__mikem> Duelbooting is hard to do though, I would recomend you get a copy of vmware and practice a few times on a virtual machine so you don't screw things up
[05:01] <gnomefreak> gharz: if you type apt-cache search vcd | less it gives you all packages that will play or whatever with them 1 page at a time use page down to move to next page
[05:02] <KenSentMe> eugman: yes, if you install windows after ubuntu it's hard to boot ubuntu, windows bootloader is not great
[05:02] <__mikem> KenSentMe. As I said, typically, you want grub to load first. THen you want ubuntu to be in the next partition, then after that the windows boot loader and windows
[05:03] <KenSentMe> __mikem: you're right
[05:03] <mrmist> Should I install Kubuntu again then, and format it correctly ?
[05:03] <__mikem> GRub will either load ubuntu or "chainload" the windows bootloader
[05:03] <mrmist> Instead of resizing ?
[05:03] <__mikem> depending on what you want
[05:03] <skydragon38> anyone know the command to upgrade to dapper
[05:03] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell skydragon38 -about upgrade
[05:03] <KenSentMe> joe_: maybe google for them, but as gaim2.0 is not in the repositories yet, so it's possible that there aren't any deb for the other packages yet
[05:03] <eugman> Thanks kensentme, Mikem_, I understand that stuff and was just wondering if windows had any partiton location requirements. I'm planning on setting up a friends laptop to dual boot. The wierd think is she'd like Xp, ubuntu, and 98 if possible. (8 for some old obscure game apparently.
[05:04] <kaning> skydragon: gksudo "update-manager" -d
[05:04] <__mikem> IF you want to duelboot its safest to install linux first
[05:04] <fooman> is there a way to read file contents using bash scripting?
[05:04] <NoUse> __mikem I find it to easier to install Windows first
[05:04] <LeaChim> ...
[05:04] <LeaChim> __mikem, it's much safer to install windows first
[05:04] <Ng> fooman: try googling for the bash scripting howto, it should cover stuff like that
[05:04] <NoUse> __mikem that way ubuntu finds Windows and sets up the boot menu automagically
[05:04] <kaning> http://www.kaning.co.uk/blog to see how i did mine
[05:04] <LeaChim> windows will destroy the MBR when you install it.
[05:05] <KenSentMe> __mikem: that's not true it think, ubuntu sets uop grub automaticly to boot windows also, windows doesn't do the same with ubuntu
[05:05] <LeaChim> it will ignore ubuntu completely
[05:05] <LeaChim> ubuntu will set dualboot up correctly
[05:05] <__mikem> LeaChim, the problem is, windows has this nasty tendency to take up the entire disk not allowing room for additional partitions
[05:05] <joe_> editing window's boot.ini to boot linux is well documented and _very_ easy, i don't see what the problems are, but i'd still prefer grub in my MBR.
[05:05] <fooman> Ng, i'm trying to script a service to run in the background to takedown potential hazards such as forkbombs
[05:05] <LeaChim> __mikem, not when you install it manually
[05:05] <KenSentMe> __mikem: choose the right options at install
[05:06] <KenSentMe> __mikem: never had a problem with that
[05:06] <LeaChim> you just have to choose your partition size :/
[05:06] <Concord_Dawn> __mikem: Not if you partition correctly.
[05:06] <Concord_Dawn> indeed.
[05:06] <KenSentMe> I guess __mikem gets the point now
[05:06] <mrmist> A GRUB question: I've got XP and Ubuntu now. If I reinstall Linux, will GRUB handle it ?? Or will it still try to connect to the "old" linux installation?
[05:06] <Concord_Dawn> The easiest way to do it is to install Windows first and make two partitions, then reformat the second partition when you install Linux.
[05:06] <__mikem> YEh I do
[05:06] <metallitux> can someone help me fix GRUB?
[05:06] <Concord_Dawn> mrmist: It should be fine.
[05:06] <Concord_Dawn> ubotu: tell metallitux about grub
[05:06] <KenSentMe> mrmist: if you install it over the old linux it wont
[05:07] <__mikem> Hold on, I have to ruscel me up some GRUB
[05:07] <__mikem> lol
[05:07] <__mikem> brb
[05:07] <mrmist> KenSentMe: I'm reformatting the Linux drive
[05:07] <metallitux> !GRUB
[05:07] <ubotu> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/GrubHowto or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows or troubleshooting grub: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Troubleshooting
[05:07] <KenSentMe> mrmist: then there's no problem
[05:07] <Concord_Dawn> This is a question about dapper drake. If I have an 8 year old x86 box lying around, am I better to go with Breezy or Dapper?
[05:08] <mrmist> KenSentMe: I really just want to separate out the "/home" folder to a separate partition, but I can't do it in Linux it seems
[05:08] <Concord_Dawn> KenSentMe: yes you can.
[05:08] <KenSentMe> Concord_Dawn: dapper, but try the alternative iso for download
[05:08] <Concord_Dawn> err.
[05:08] <Concord_Dawn> mrmist: yes you can.
[05:08] <__mikem> Concord_Dawn you should use dapper, but if you are worriecd about speed, you can use Xubuntu, or ubuntu-lite
[05:08] <h3sp4wn> Concord_Dawn: 8 years probably hoary or xubuntu
[05:08] <mrmist> Concord_Dawn: Know how ??
[05:08] <Concord_Dawn> yes.
[05:08] <Concord_Dawn> Just mount the second hdd at /home.
[05:08] <Concord_Dawn> !mount
[05:08] <ubotu> mount is probably the command to add partitions to your filesystem - for full instructions see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingANewHardDrive For mounting windows partitions, see !windowsdrives or http://tinyurl.com/bly9f
[05:09] <Concord_Dawn> ubotu knows everything.
[05:09] <ubotu> Concord_Dawn: NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:09] <KenSentMe> mrmist: choose to manually partition your hd and then choose /home for the second partion for ubuntu
[05:09] <KenSentMe> Concord_Dawn: sorry xubuntu instead of alternative iso
[05:09] <avis> i am using xubuntu on my 2.4 1ghz machine and everytime i click on "open browser" link it wont open firefox
[05:09] <Concord_Dawn> bleh.
[05:09] <Concord_Dawn> Can I do a dist-upgrade from Breezy to Xubuntu?
[05:09] <__mikem> do a dpkg-reconfigure on firefox
[05:10] <avis> thanks
[05:10] <__mikem> don't mention it
[05:10] <simonpca> plop
[05:10] <Concord_Dawn> !upgrade
[05:10] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade. Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades . Note: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the latest development verison: (eft when its open)
[05:10] <__mikem> dpkg-reconfigure can fix a lot of problems, its  areally nice command
[05:10] <Concord_Dawn> dpkg ftw.
[05:10] <KenSentMe> hail dpkg
[05:10] <kaning> anyone know how to upgrade firefox without waiting for update manager
[05:10] <kaning> ?
[05:11] <mrmist> Concord_Dawn: er... I've only got to partitions on my current system. One with WinXP, and one with Linux. Now I want "/home" to have it's own partition, so I may reinstall linux without deleting the partition
[05:11] <avis> __mikem: no such luck with dpkg-reconfigure
[05:11] <KenSentMe> kaning: it's better to wait
[05:11] <__mikem> what EXACTLY did you type
[05:11] <__mikem> ?
[05:11] <mrmist> Concord_Dawn: I know how to mount :)
[05:11] <avis> dpkg-reconfigure firefox
[05:11] <kane77> xvidcap: error while loading shared libraries: libpng.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory where can I get it???
[05:11] <OneSeventeen> how can I mount my windows partition for read only, it claims to be HPFS/NTFS
[05:11] <markgrif> So anyone know how I can get presets for xmms EQ?
[05:11] <ciasa> does anyone here know if the xine package in ubuntu is supposed to include ogg vorbis support?
[05:12] <__mikem> what message did you get
[05:12] <avis> __mikem: none
[05:12] <__mikem> did you do it as root
[05:12] <DarkRavenMixage> someone knows how to configure 5.1 audio under ubuntu?
[05:12] <Concord_Dawn> ciasa: have you tried searching for ogg or vorbis in the repos
[05:12] <OneSeventeen> (following the ntfs mounting tips in the wiki don't work, it returns wrong fs type...)
[05:12] <avis> yes
[05:12] <tempered> where is the default phpmyadmin on ubuntu lamp install?  what address do I hit to see it?
[05:12] <Concord_Dawn> OneSeventeen: Wierd. Works for me.
[05:12] <ciasa> yeah, i have all the ogg and xine packages installed
[05:12] <Concord_Dawn> You have to type -t ntfs though
[05:12] <KenSentMe> tempered: it should be in localhost/phpmyadmin i think
[05:12] <__mikem> do me a favor, try opening firefox again
[05:13] <markgrif> The speakers on this laptop really suck.
[05:13] <avis> ok
[05:13] <Concord_Dawn> wow @ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu <--- "beening."
[05:13] <Gilaun> mrmist: you can try resizing your 1 linux partition down, the adding a new partition in the empty space.  You are going to have to do some googling for the details though.
[05:13] <OneSeventeen> Concord_Dawn: I'm adding it to my fstab, setting the type to "ntfs"
[05:13] <Concord_Dawn> *shrug*.
[05:13] <Concord_Dawn> I don't know. The last time I tried it was with Hoary and it was a USB 2.0 external.
[05:13] <DarkRavenMixage> someone knows how to configure 5.1 audio under ubuntu?
[05:13] <avis> Concord_Dawn: not too much info there eh ?
[05:13] <Concord_Dawn> !surround
[05:13] <ubotu> Concord_Dawn: Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:13] <ciasa> amarok refuses to load any ogg files (with the xine plugin selected) and xine proper wont load them either
[05:13] <zuhause01xx> hello, i accidentally removed the waste basket from mydesktop, how can i get it back?
[05:14] <Concord_Dawn> ciasa: you tried install w32codecs?
[05:14] <__mikem> avis did it work?
[05:14] <DarkRavenMixage> concord_dawn do you know how to play amr audio?
[05:14] <ciasa> it seems like the file /usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.1.1/xineplug_decode_ogg.so is missing
[05:14] <avis> nope
[05:14] <DarkRavenMixage> ciasa run gstreamer
[05:14] <Concord_Dawn> DarkRavenMixage: Not in the slightest.
[05:14] <Concord_Dawn> What's wrong with 2.1?
[05:14] <__mikem> interesting, and this is in a NEW xubuntu install
[05:14] <tempered> KenSentMe: http://<IP_ADDRESS>/phpmyadmin isn't working ( or various casings of that too, phpMyAdmin, etc ).  But php is working and it's a LAMP install.  Where else could I check?
[05:15] <ciasa> gstreamer isn't an availabe engine with the amarok 1.4 packages yet
[05:15] <dradul> zuhause01xx: right-click on an empty panel, it can be the one on the top, and select add to panel
[05:15] <Concord_Dawn> tempered: Not use LAMP.
[05:15] <avis> default action command is the problem its having
[05:15] <Driverz> hey
[05:15] <zuhause01xx> thanks
[05:15] <ciasa> and the xine engine is more stable
[05:15] <LeaChim> tempered, try apt-get instapp phpmyadmin first
[05:15] <Concord_Dawn> yeah.
[05:15] <dradul> zuhause01xx: click on the trash icon, drag and drop it to the low-right corner of the screen,
[05:15] <Concord_Dawn> apt-get install apache2, php5, phpmyadmin, mysql, etc etc.
[05:15] <mythicness> hey guys
[05:15] <Concord_Dawn> It's all in the repos. You don't need LAMP.
[05:15] <mythicness> can someone help me
[05:15] <Driverz> any1 know how i go about connecting using a psybnc?
[05:15] <__mikem> oh, do me a favor, tell me what command the shortcut boints to

[05:16] <Concord_Dawn> Driverz: yes.
[05:16] <Driverz> cool
[05:16] <markgrif> I downloaded the Dapper desktop iso. Is there a server version hidden on it?
[05:16] <mythicness> just got a new macbook pro
[05:16] <mythicness> i installed it
[05:16] <zuhause01xx> ok
[05:16] <zuhause01xx> got it
[05:16] <tmn> is there any support for apt-setup in ubuntu dapper drake.. I get the command not found when i try to use it
[05:16] <markgrif> Sweet, mythicness!
[05:16] <Concord_Dawn> Driverz: Start psybnc, then connect to the port it's listening to.
[05:16] <mythicness> but when its booting grub just hangs
[05:16] <Concord_Dawn> Follow the instructions it gives you, et woila.
[05:16] <tempered> thanks guys I thought LAMP installed it by default
[05:16] <Concord_Dawn> voila, even.
[05:16] <__mikem> avis, also, when you are done, open up a terminal window and type exec firefox &
[05:16] <Gilaun> !parted

[05:17] <Concord_Dawn> Some_Person: Why do you need to reinstall Ubuntu?
[05:17] <tempered> the docs that I specified /home/tempered/WWW
[05:17] <Some_Person> I screwed it up

[05:17] <gharz> gnomefreak, i installed vlc and yet it doesn't work. i'm getting frustrated.... do u think if i re install ubuntu it will fix the problem?
[05:17] <Concord_Dawn> How Some_Person?

[05:17] <Killaz> __mikem: ok np
[05:17] <gnomefreak> gharz: i wouldnt think it would help
[05:17] <kaning> but i think you will need to install the programmes all over again
[05:17] <markgrif> vls doesn't work for me either.
[05:17] <KenSentMe> !tell redrumz about ati
[05:17] <__mikem> avis, that sounds like a problem with X then
[05:17] <Some_Person> I can't just reinstall ubuntu without losin my stuff?
[05:18] <Driverz>  Disconnected (Remote host closed socket).
[05:18] <Concord_Dawn> you need to authenticate.
[05:18] <Killaz> __mikem: maybe that's the diff not enough documentation about fwanalog on the net
[05:18] <kaning> Some_person: you can backup your personal settings
[05:18] <mythicness> anyone have any idea why grub would be hanging on my macbook pro?
[05:18] <ijeff> Upgrade from Breezy -> Dapper Complete!

[05:20] <xst> I have installed ruby but there is no "ruby" command. Only "ruby1.8". This nameing makes some scripts broken. E.g. the lyrics in amarok. Is this a bug in the ruby package?

[05:20] <Some_Person> I can only log in to ubuntu with the "Failsafe-Terminal"
[05:20] <KenSentMe> du_: depends on what file you are trying to play

[05:23] <Concord_Dawn> Driverz: anyways, you need to enter your username in the ident field, and your password in the password field.
[05:23] <Gilaun> Drivers: Wine allows you to run windows apps on linux.
[05:23] <Driverz> ok
[05:23] <Driverz> i must get wine then
[05:23] <Concord_Dawn> nerdzyboy: Why do you need to become root?
[05:23] <KenSentMe> !tell ijeff about ati

[05:25] <kaning> try clamAV
[05:25] <Concord_Dawn> ok, I'm running a gdm update.
[05:25] <__mikem> I love saying HOLLY CRAP
[05:25] <KenSentMe> SurfnKid: strange indeed
[05:25] <Concord_Dawn> It tells me that I need to kill all X sessions.
[05:26] <SurfnKid> it sure is
[05:26] <Concord_Dawn> But how do I kill all X sessions without stopping Synaptic from closing?
[05:26] <llpamies> When I suspend to ram, and resume, the screen don't works very well, like if some parts of it doesn't refresh the content
[05:26] <SurfnKid> KenSentMe: and I cant proceed to install anything else
[05:26] <kaning> Driverz: clamAV is probably what you're looking for
[05:26] <Driverz> ok
[05:26] <Some_Person> nerdzyboy: set a root pass on System>Administation>Login
[05:26] <gharz> gnomefreak, this is weird. i can watch dvd... but i can't watch VCD!!!!
[05:26] <llpamies> Anybody knows this problem ?
[05:26] <william__> Hey Guys, whats the best program for *backing up dvds*
[05:26] <Ng> Concord_Dawn: you can't. are you sure it says you "need" to, or is it just telling you that gdm changes won't be applied until you do close all x sessions? (I suspect the latter, in which case you are fine)
[05:26] <gharz> gnomefreak, uhmmm... i wonder what the problem is.
[05:26] <du_> KenSentMe, nothing..i installed all gstreamer plgin
[05:26] <Concord_Dawn> oh
[05:26] <Concord_Dawn> use it's the latter.
[05:26] <Concord_Dawn> ues*
[05:27] <du_> KenSentMe, same gnomebaker error
[05:27] <Concord_Dawn> yes*
[05:27] <gnomefreak> gharz: im not sure ive never tried vcd's before
[05:27] <Some_Person> now, how do i backup my crap without login in?
[05:27] <Concord_Dawn> that's it. No more crack for me.
[05:27] <nicoduck> hi
[05:27] <KenSentMe> du_: sorry i can't help you then
[05:27] <Concord_Dawn> Some_Person: you booted from the LiveCD?
[05:27] <Ng> Concord_Dawn: then when you're finished with synaptic and other stuff, just log out and hit ctrl-alt-backspace at the gdm screen and it will restart :)
[05:27] <Some_Person> oh
[05:27] <jenda> Ubuntu Dapper crashes occassionally for absolutely no obvious reason. X simply disappears and reappears on tty8! When I switch to tty7, all I see is an error message about X being disabled and restarting it when GDM is configured correctly. Below that is a note: ***glibc detected***corrupted double linked list: 0x0something***
[05:27] <ijeff> how can i go about installing Mobility Radeon 7500 drivers?
[05:27] <gharz> gnomefreak, anyway, VCD's are becoming obselete now. i guess this is not a major issue anymore. :)
[05:27] <nicoduck> can anybody help me please with am ppc problem??
[05:27] <ijeff> does anyone know how can i go about installing Mobility Radeon 7500 drivers?
[05:27] <SurfnKid> gnomefreak: are you on dapper. i have a connectivity problem maybe you have advice

[05:28] <Concord_Dawn> I'm currently running my Windows box.
[05:28] <Driverz> ok
[05:28] <william__> ijeff, you need the ATIBInary Howto
[05:28] <Concord_Dawn> Some_Person: They should be mounted.
[05:28] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell william__ -about ati
[05:28] <Some_Person> they dont on livecd
[05:28] <Driverz> im gonna have to install windows on my nix box upsatairs
[05:28] <Driverz> this was my windows box
[05:28] <ijeff> KenSentMe: unfortunately i dont have them on me, i wiped my computer last night to rid it of windows
[05:28] <gmccreight> I've been looking on the website, but I can't seem to find what the "Long Term" in LTS stands for.  How long does it last?
[05:28] <gharz> gnomefreak, thanks for the help. i appreciate it.
[05:28] <SurfnKid> gnomefreak: im on now, as yoyu can see here.. but apt-get fails to update all sources,  as if dns resolving failed. However I can browse or ping anything else,
[05:28] <Some_Person> so how do i do it?
[05:28] <Concord_Dawn> !tell Some_Person about grub
[05:29] <KenSentMe> ijeff: look at the wiki page
[05:29] <ijeff> william__: ATIBinary HowTo?
[05:29] <Some_Person> I know about freakin grub
[05:29] <Concord_Dawn> Check out the fixing grub after install winblows link.
[05:29] <Peregrino> Can anyone help me with a KDE issue?
[05:29] <gnomefreak> SurfnKid: can you ping archive.ubuntu.com?
[05:29] <KenSentMe> ~tell ijeff about ati
[05:29] <Concord_Dawn> That will tell you how to mount your HDD on LiveCD.
[05:29] <Some_Person> i want a command to mount my partitions on the livecd
[05:29] <KenSentMe> !tell ijeff about ati
[05:29] <SurfnKid> gnomefreak: yes
[05:29] <Driverz> does it matter that im runnin dd
[05:29] <Driverz> and its for bb
[05:29] <jrattner> QUESTION: If I have a mailserver set up for a domain, and I want it to accept mail for that domain AND another domain on the same server how do I set mail up to accept it from both domains?
[05:29] <SurfnKid> gnomefreak: 0% packet loss
[05:29] <mo0se> !wmv
[05:29] <ubotu> [restricted]  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[05:29] <gnomefreak> SurfnKid:no im not sure than
[05:30] <kaning> aight guys i'm out
[05:30] <KenSentMe> jrattner: what mailserver have you got?
[05:30] <Concord_Dawn> Read what I just said. Read the first bit. It will show you how to mount your HDD in a LiveCD so you can get anything you need off of there.
[05:30] <gnomefreak> SurfnKid: it might just be apt can you open synaptic ok?
[05:30] <gharz> gnomefreak, i don't know if this could be a factor. i'm watching VCD burned from divx movie formats. and these VCD's were created by NERO. does it make any sense?
[05:30] <SurfnKid> gnomefreak: it does the same thing, when it finishes updating, throws a window with all the failed links, says maybe a network problem?  How! im on now :(
[05:30] <jrattner> Kennie, I use dovecot, procmail and postifx
[05:30] <Some_Person> just tell me the command to mount my partitions thru the LiveCD
[05:31] <Concord_Dawn> I DON'T REMEMBER IT.
[05:31] <gharz> gnomefreak, i'm trying to play a DVD burned by NERO from a divx format and it doesn't work as well.
[05:31] <de1> Is it possible for the "alternative" install CD to reconize my previous LVM and RAID setup on bootup? It seems only the Live CD does this.
[05:31] <gnomefreak> SurfnKid: have you changed your domain name or pc name lately?
[05:31] <SurfnKid> gnomefreak: and i cant proceed to install anythingn else
[05:31] <selinium__> hi all, any network printer people around, i am trying to connect to a brother MFC-620CN via the network. All the Windows machines can see it, but I am a little stumped with CUPS...
[05:31] <SurfnKid> gnomefreak: not at all this is a fresh install, just did yesterday, formatted
[05:31] <selinium__> hi gnomefreak :)
[05:31] <gnomefreak> hi selinium__
[05:31] <jrattner> KenSentMe, any ideas?
[05:32] <Kwong> hi, how to replace gnome-desktop by fluxbox?
[05:32] <Some_Person> Does anyone know the command to mount partitions (not read only) through a LiveCD?
[05:32] <rdz> silly question: how can i get the size of a directory and all its containing files?
[05:32] <gnomefreak> SurfnKid: im not real sure than maybe apt is being sent through a proxy (ive seen it before just dont know hwot o check nor fix sorry)
[05:32] <KenSentMe> jrattner: try /etc/postfix/main.cf and look for mydestinations
[05:32] <fooman> can somoene tell me how to start up usage of the limits.conf file?
[05:32] <KenSentMe> jrattner: add you second domain there
[05:32] <SurfnKid> gnomefreak: exactly thats what i think too
[05:32] <farous> Kwong: just download fluxbox then from the session manager choose fluxbox
[05:32] <Gilaun> rdz: du --max-depth=2
[05:32] <SurfnKid> thanks anyway :)
[05:33] <eugman> Hey, how do I change the default nick for irssi?
[05:33] <SurfnKid> br
[05:33] <munckfish> Some_Person: I'd have to look in 'man mount' for the options to do that
[05:33] <SurfnKid> b
[05:33] <Some_Person> !mount
[05:33] <ubotu> from memory, mount is the command to add partitions to your filesystem - for full instructions see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingANewHardDrive For mounting windows partitions, see !windowsdrives or http://tinyurl.com/bly9f
[05:33] <Kwong> farous: is there anyway to remove completely gnome-desktop?
[05:33] <fooman> !limits.conf
[05:33] <ubotu> Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, fooman
[05:33] <jrattner> KenSentMe, alright give me a second ill give it a try
[05:33] <farous> Kwong: i do not remember the exact package name for it
[05:33] <dradul> Kwong: remove glib2 and then reinstall ubuntu-standard
[05:34] <gnomefreak> Kwong: ubuntu-desktop
[05:34] <munckfish> Some_Person: also when I tried to mount my partitions from the LiveCD it sort of looked like the necessary drivers weren't there to do it as the Gnome disk manager thingey hadn't ID'd the filesystem types properly
[05:34] <KenSentMe> eugman: go to /home/eugman/.irssi/config and change your nick at the bottom
[05:34] <Kwong> gnomefreak: apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop?
[05:34] <KenSentMe> jrattner: oki
[05:34] <Driverz> hum
[05:34] <Driverz> whats apt
[05:34] <Jon_> eugmen: there's #irssi for that
[05:34] <rdz> Gilaun, many thanks
[05:34] <KenSentMe> !tell Driverz about apt
[05:34] <tanath> can someone help me get online (i'm on the livecd now)? when ubuntu starts loading and gets to 'configuring network interfaces' it says failed. i brought eth0 and lo up with 'ifconfig eth0 up' and 'ifconfig lo up' but it still doesn't work
[05:34] <Gilaun> :-)
[05:34] <gnomefreak> Kwong: are you trying to use kde instead of gnoem? what are you attempting to do?
[05:34] <farous> Kwong: ubuntu-desktop is a meta package it is mainly used for update purposes
[05:34] <Driverz> ta
[05:35] <dradul> Kwong: No. You need to remove *all* gnome and gtk apps. All depend on glib.
[05:35] <Kwong> gnomefreak: i want to remove the gnome desktop to replace by fluxbox, wanna free some resources
[05:35] <dradul> Kwong: So, you remove glib and then reinstall ubuntu-standard, to restore a *server* install.
[05:35] <tanek> whats a good program for finding wireless networks?
[05:35] <gnomefreak> Kwong: than remove --purge glib but iirc flux will bring back glib
[05:35] <tanath> i've been slowly updating to dapper, and i think that's what's causing my problems
[05:35] <jrattner> KenSentMe, how do i restart postfix now to test it
[05:35] <farous> Kwong: but doing soo you will remove nautilus the file manager you will remve a lot of stuff you need. fluxbox is just a window manager not a desktop env
[05:36] <dradul> Kwong: On top of that you can install wither kubuntu-destop, edubuntu-desktop or xubuntu-desktop, your choice.
[05:36] <KenSentMe> jrattner: sudo /etc/init.d/postfix restart
[05:36] <gharz> gnomefreak, now i got another problem. the color is not showing the right one. the saturation/hue is bad.
[05:36] <farous> Kwong: have you considered xubuntu, xface
[05:36] <tanath> anyone?
[05:36] <Kwong> farous: because i usually remote to my ubuntu box only
[05:37] <Kwong> farous: so i dont really need the gnome-desktop
[05:37] <Ichigo> I hope I dont get banned for this but, I am trying to setup keybindings and this app I have no clue what to do with it: xbindkeys-1.7.2.ebuild
[05:37] <__mikem> why can't I pipe the output of ps to another command
[05:37] <Kwong> farous: i want something light
[05:37] <__mikem> I want to do ps -C less -o pid --no-heading -w | kill
[05:37] <klubber> how can i check what software & on what port is listening?
[05:37] <__mikem> in a shell script as a way to kill a process by its command name
[05:37] <farous> Kwong: just remeber to pick up some light applications for other stuff you need like browsing and file managing
[05:38] <__mikem> in this case less is the name of the command I want to kill
[05:38] <synic> __mikem: killall commandname
[05:38] <mluser-work> Is it possible to tell the livecd installer to install/setup grub into /dev/hda7 instead of /dev/hda?
[05:38] <viper474> hello, I can't get the files burned to a disk
[05:38] <tanath> can someone help me get online (i'm on the livecd now)? when ubuntu starts loading and gets to 'configuring network interfaces' it says failed. i brought eth0 and lo up with 'ifconfig eth0 up' and 'ifconfig lo up' but it still doesn't work
[05:38] <Ichigo> did anyone get transparency to work with the scroll mouse wheel running the new Xgl compiz server?
[05:39] <Kwong> farous: i currently running some services on ubuntu, if i remove the glib, will it effect anything to those services?
[05:39] <synic> Kwong: glib, probably not.   glibc yes.
[05:39] <Ng> Kwong: if you try to remove glib you will be told about anythign that requires it
[05:40] <Kwong> Ng: oh alrite, that makes sense to me, thanx
[05:40] <gmccreight> How Long Term is LTS?
[05:40] <Ng> gmccreight: 3 years for the desktop profile, 5 for the server profile
[05:41] <gmccreight> thanks!
[05:41] <__mikem> HEres a question, Ubuntu versions are named after creatures indiginous to south africa, what exactly is a dapper?
[05:41] <tempered> what file do I edit or how do I set the ip address to not be dhcp?
[05:41] <viper474> i connot burn the image to a cd properly, I have wasted 5 cds...
[05:42] <synic> __mikem: it's dapper drake
[05:42] <__mikem> tempered system>administration>networking
[05:42] <Ng> __mikem: it's dapper drake. a drake is a type of duck, dapper is an adjective :)
[05:42] <__mikem> oh
[05:42] <tempered> console only, what do I edit?
[05:42] <__mikem> why must you use the console
[05:42] <eugman> Hey, is it possible to add the ssh server but make it so only one account is ssh accessable?
[05:42] <Ng> tempered: /etc/network/interfaces
[05:42] <__mikem> unless you can't get into x
[05:42] <synic> tempered: /etc/network/interfaces
[05:42] <tempered> thanks
[05:42] <Ng> tempered: see "man interfaces" for documentation for the file format
[05:43] <a22> anyone know how to enable the file /etc/security/limits.conf
[05:43] <dradul> __mikem: drake is either a male duck or a make dragon. Dapper means elegant as in: dressed-to-kill.
[05:43] <Daemonic> Dressed to kill duck?
[05:43] <synic> eugman: sure... only give that user a valid shell
[05:44] <dradul> make dragon -> male dragon
[05:44] <tanath> can someone help me get online (i'm on the livecd now)? when ubuntu starts loading and gets to 'configuring network interfaces' it says failed. i brought eth0 and lo up with 'ifconfig eth0 up' and 'ifconfig lo up' but it still doesn't work
[05:44] <synic> Daemonic: be very afraid
[05:44] <__mikem> Cool. And this distro is definitely dressed to kill redhat
[05:44] <Ng> eugman: you can put entries in /etc/ssh/sshd_config to only allow specific users or groups ssh access
[05:44] <mluser-work> eugman: modify sshd_config and add this to it "AllowUsers <username>"
[05:44] <Ng> eugman: I use "AllowGroups ssh" and then add users to the "ssh" group if they are allowed to ssh in :)
[05:44] <Ng> eugman: or what mluser-work said :)
[05:44] <henriquemaia> -about nfs
[05:44] <dradul> Daemonic: Exactly. All Ubuntu code names are puns that point to the release intention/condition. E.g., Hoary Hedhog. A hedhog is an ant-eater and that release was full of bugs.
[05:45] <__mikem> !nfs
[05:45] <ubotu> I guess nfs is see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NFSClientHowTo and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NFSServerHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[05:45] <mluser-work> Is it possible to tell the livecd installer to install/setup grub into /dev/hda7 instead of /dev/hda?
[05:45] <henriquemaia> !nfs
[05:45] <a22> tanath, do you get your ip address using dhcp or do you have to manually assign the ip address from your router?
[05:45] <igorzolnikov> how i can use Wine?
[05:45] <SurfnKid> no luck :(
[05:45] <tanath> how do i manually configure an interface (eth0)?
[05:45] <henriquemaia> Thanks __mikem
[05:45] <tanath> a22, dhcp
[05:45] <__mikem> henriqumeia your welcome, ! is the triger for the irc bot
[05:45] <a22> tanath, try dhcpd eth0
[05:45] <eugman> Ah, perfect thanks. I don't need to make a whole group since this is just going to be a fix my aunts laptop remotely account.
[05:45] <henriquemaia> Thanks.
[05:45] <tanath> a22, hrm, thanks
[05:45] <henriquemaia> !nfs
[05:45] <ubotu> methinks nfs is see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NFSClientHowTo and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NFSServerHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[05:45] <__mikem> any tim
[05:45] <SurfnKid> whats the command apt-get runs when it fetches updates?
[05:46] <gnomefreak> SurfnKid: apt-get update
[05:46] <mluser-work> SurfnKid: sudo apt-get update

[05:46] <tritohc> hello i think i messed up xchat somehow, it won't start anymore.  where would i look for a log telling me why?
[05:46] <gnomefreak> do not play with the bot in the channel
[05:46] <SurfnKid> gnomefreak: right.. but when it does the http:// connecting does it wget or something else
[05:46] <tanath> a22, actually, 'ifconfig eth0 up' seems to work, but i can't ping my router. says network unreachable
[05:46] <__mikem> Bare in mind ubotu doesn't know everything, and will be quick to point out when it is ignorent
[05:46] <viper474> i connot burn the image to a cd properly, I have wasted 5 cds...
[05:46] <__mikem> for instance
[05:46] <__mikem> ubotu nothing
[05:47] <ubotu> __mikem: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:47] <gnomefreak> SurfnKid: i would assume wget but for sure i dont know
[05:47] <__mikem> brb
[05:47] <farous_> dam this firmware error and bad programming :(
[05:47] <a22> tanath, login to your router and see if your boxes domain name is coming up
[05:47] <SurfnKid> gnomefreak: ah
[05:47] <viper474> i connot burn the image to a cd properly, I have wasted 5 cds...
[05:47] <tanath> a22, doesn't have one
[05:47] <viper474> i cannot burn the image to a cd properly, I have wasted 5 cds...
[05:47] <tanath> a22, and i wouldn't be able to if i can't connect to it :p
[05:47] <farous_> viper474: use a low burn speed 2- 4x
[05:48] <viper474> farous_ cannot find out how to lower it
[05:48] <DarkRavenMixage> someone knows how to configure 5.1 audio under ubuntu?

[05:48] <Skwid_> ?
[05:48] <tanath> a22, when i bring it up with ifconfig it seems to be configured.. just doesn't work
[05:48] <ijeff> the howTo wont help for my video card.. ATI Mobility RADEON 7500
[05:49] <farous_> viper474: depend on what program you use so can not help you there
[05:49] <viper474> which would you use?
[05:49] <farous_> i use k3b
[05:49] <SurfnKid> maybe i have a character conflict or something
[05:49] <Skwid_> what's up with the crappy menu ?
[05:49] <farous_> but all other programs have this functionality so just look for help on your specific program
[05:49] <a22> tanath, do you possibly have an io error?
[05:49] <ijeff> anyone know if i can reach a higher resolution above 1024x168 with my video card.. ATI Mobility RADEON 7500
[05:50] <tanath> a22, i don't believe so. not that i know of
[05:50] <ijeff> anyone know if i can reach a higher resolution above 1024x768 with my video card.. ATI Mobility RADEON 7500
[05:50] <gnomefreak> ijeff: should but can you monitor handle a higher res?
[05:50] <farous_> !tell ijeff about resolution
[05:50] <ijeff> gnomefreak: yep, but do i need to install new drivers/
[05:50] <a22> tanath, try lspci see if your nic comes up
[05:50] <farous_> ijeff: check ubutu pm
[05:50] <tanath> a22, when you're in gnome's network settings, and you click 'activate' on an interface, what does that do? that's what i need to do
[05:51] <a22> tanath, all it does is ifconfig eth0 up
[05:51] <gnomefreak> ijeff: i dont use ati anymore (thankgod) but no not for a higher res you shouldnt have to
[05:51] <tanath> a22, i'm on a livecd now.. i'd have to reboot, and i'd have no more connection :p
[05:51] <a22> tanath, also if you have a wireless nic in there make sure you have that one down before you activate that
[05:51] <tanath> a22, hrm, well that's not working anymore :/
[05:51] <tanath> a22, nope
[05:52] <a22> tanath, do you have more than one nic?
[05:52] <SurfnKid> is there a network monitor system log i can check?
[05:52] <tanath> a22, why would it suddenly fail to configure on boot?
[05:52] <tanath> a22, no
[05:52] <Zkillz|Guest> how do i access my cdrom drive in ubuntu server? I have a file in there i just burned as "data disc", it's in tar type. But i cd'ed to /cdrom and didnt find anything ?
[05:52] <tanath> a22, this wasn't a problem until i rebooted. all i've done is start upgrading to dapper
[05:52] <a22> tanath, hmm not sure some cards don't work until you get into gnome i'm not sure why
[05:52] <tanath> a22, may be a bug
