[05:47] <Math^> I've got some stupid question: why is the penguin a logo/symbol of linux? lol
[05:48] <kuma> Ben: that's the linux version of rainlendar
[05:48] <wick2o> Math^: id google that
[05:48] <wick2o> the answer is everywhere
[05:48] <Math^> wick2o, k :P
[05:48] <MKR> Math^: Because penguins are fierce
[05:48] <Ber> kuma: ber not ben
[05:48] <kuma> sorry ^
[05:48] <Music_Shuffle> Anyone able to tell me how to fix my apparently corrupted iTunesDB file?
[05:48] <wick2o> thats like asking if MS wrote dos
[05:48] <Simulator> XChat2.8.0
[05:49] <Instabin> MS didnt write dos
[05:49] <Simulator> anyone use XChat 2.8.0
[05:49] <martinimnetz> shripani: guess, i did a server install then. i'm sure i had sudo.
[05:49] <wick2o> Instabin: exactly
[05:49] <emss> gaim uses 30% cpu
[05:49] <Instabin> he bought it in college for 3 or 5 grand
[05:49] <Math^> the macintosh uses an apple as logo, becouse Steve Jobs loves that kind of fruit :)
[05:49] <wick2o> Instabin: point is, that answer is ALL over the net
[05:50] <kuma> Ber: http://img452.imageshack.us/img452/8910/1wx6.png
[05:50] <Ber> kuma: whats the name of the files that are in that .tar.bz2-file?
[05:50] <xtknight> g'morning
[05:51] <Ber> kuma: Kubuntu?
[05:52] <kuma> Ber: yup...
[05:52] <Rookie-1> !cube
[05:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cube - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:52] <Ber> kuma: KPackage is the prog of your choice
[05:52] <Rookie-1> !panel
[05:52] <miniman> Sometimes when I try to open the terminal, it just says "starting terminal" then closes....Does anyone know why it does this?
[05:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about panel - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:52] <miniman> Sometimes when I try to open the terminal, it just says "starting terminal" then closes....Does anyone know why it does this?
[05:53] <kuma> Ber: ok, i'm oppening it
[05:53] <seamus7> When running 'glxgears' in a terminal, is there supposed to be a rotating cube?
[05:53] <syd67ro> can I install skype via apt-get install? Is it in the multiverse repository? I'm talking with a friend with ubuntu and he can't install it this way
[05:54] <el-sio> Could someone help me a little with my soundcard ? It is working but the volume is very low even at max output on alsamixer...
[05:54] <miniman> syd67ro, download it from their website
[05:54] <Ber> syd67ro: Goto the Skype Website, they tell you which repository to use
[05:54] <syd67ro> so I can't install it with apt-get?
[05:55] <Ber> syd67.ro: Ad the repository and you will be able to do so
[05:55] <skmidry> !wireless
[05:55] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:55] <martinimnetz> el-sio, i don't want to sound like a wiseguy, but have you checked your "hardware" volume controls? No offence intended, but something like that happened to me.
[05:55] <miniman> syd67ro, download it from their website
[05:55] <syd67ro> Ber: ok, so I have to add a new repository just for skype. Why cant I grab it from multiverse?
[05:55] <miniman> Sometimes when I try to open the terminal, it just says "starting terminal" then closes....Does anyone know why it does this?
[05:56] <el-sio> thx martinimnetz but I have already checked that
[05:56] <Gaspipe> hey people
[05:56] <el-sio> everything is at max
[05:56] <Ber> syd67ro: Ask the ubuntu-ppl... it's not free software so it's not in it
[05:56] <martinimnetz> el-sio: Otherwise, my best guess would have been the alsamixer.
[05:56] <Gaspipe> i was here yesterday and ran the livecd disc for the 1st time....very nice...seems cool
[05:56] <syd67ro> Ber: but isnt multiverse for non-free software as well?
[05:56] <el-sio> yes but everything is at max in alsamixer too
[05:56] <el-sio> :/
[05:56] <curs0r> my system mysteriously started killing X every time i try to launch a 3d app... 7800gtx, edgy, amd x2... anyone?
[05:56] <el-sio> I don't get it...
[05:57] <Ber> sydro67ro: yez but not for everything
[05:57] <martinimnetz> el-sio: yeah, got that part. Darn thing...
[05:57] <Gaspipe> i saw a video on google that showed how to do a dual boot using the install cd which made a partition on a HDD with XP pro already runn' on it
[05:57] <mythrys> irc://irc.freenode.net/ubuntu-fr
[05:57] <el-sio> martinimnetz, can I ask you to check something ?
[05:57] <RandomDude16> how do I get
[05:57] <Gaspipe> how many gigs do u think i should allocate to ubuntu
[05:57] <Ber> syd67ro: try that: deb http://download.skype.com/linux/repos/debian/ stable non-free
[05:58] <RandomDude16> gtkpod
[05:58] <RandomDude16> to send all music files
[05:58] <RandomDude16> to the ipod?
[05:58] <el-sio> in alsamixer, when you push PCM to the max, what gain value do you have ?
[05:58] <curs0r> by the end of the day i'll have a triple boot, Ubuntu, OSX86, and FBSD
[05:58] <martinimnetz> el-sio: sure, go for it.
[05:58] <martinimnetz> el-sio: got it.
[05:58] <shriphani> RandomDude16, the tutorial i posted to you s installation instructions
[05:59] <Ber> kuma: Ok, the program I told you about is very important but I think you should be able to unpack that *.tar-file of rainlender to somewhere, goto that folder and start it by double-clicking it (have you tried that?)
[05:59] <martinimnetz> el-sio: gain value?
[06:00] <el-sio> db gain=0.0
[06:00] <el-sio> in the upper part
[06:00] <el-sio>  Item: PCM [dB gain=0.00, 0.00]
[06:00] <syd67ro> are there any extra steps required to make skype work after installation (regarding sound)?
[06:00] <hairulfr> bulmer: Hmm, I did mkfs, but I still don't have permission, the problem is that I'm running low on space on my /Home, and I need somewhere to move a lot of files
[06:00] <Ber> syd67ro: i installed it and it worked
[06:00] <shriphani> syd67ro, the latest version doesnt cause problems
[06:00] <bb_> j'ai un problme avec les v4l et les modules ov519

[06:01] <seamus7> Anyone using an ATI Radeon Mobile X1300 on Edgy Eft?
[06:01] <kuma> Ber: The rainlander wasn't in the Kpackager list
[06:01] <martinimnetz> el-sio: don't see any indication of that value, sorry. where should i see it?
[06:01] <Gaspipe> are drivers specific to xp? in other words i bought a linksys usb phone kit for skype...will that driver work for linux?
[06:01] <bulmer> hairulfr: you can pair down some files in /tmp see if you can regain some space...and regarding mount...you are mounting it as root?
[06:02] <Plaa> my laptop harddrive is clicking, the command hdparm -B 255 /dev/hda works but I have to do it everytime I reboot, is there any way to edit the hdparm.conf to do this automaticly???
[06:02] <makuseru> can someone please help me get sound working on edgy
[06:02] <Ber> kuma: might be in another repository... Ok, unpack all that files in a folder you like (e.g. /home/kuma/rainlender)
[06:02] <el-sio> alsamixer gives you a graphic of your channels level martinimnetz , and with left arrow, select PCM with UP arrow push it to max
[06:02] <hairulfr> bulmer: Yeah, it wouldn't let me mount as usr,
[06:02] <el-sio> and on the ITEM description line
[06:02] <el-sio> you should read
[06:02] <Ber> kuma: than go to that folder and start rainlendar2
[06:02] <hairulfr> bulmer: I have plenty of space, Ubuntu just won't write to it :(
[06:02] <el-sio>  Item: PCM [dB gain=0.00, 0.00]
[06:03] <el-sio> well actually not 0 i hope
[06:03] <kuma> Ber: ok, but doesn't the programs i install have to go in a default linux folder (like /bin/ or something like that?)
[06:03] <el-sio> :D
[06:03] <bulmer> hairulfr: typically devices are mounted as root, but you have already read the man pages on fstab right?
[06:03] <Ber> kuma: hm, do not know enough about linux if there is a special folder for programs, but you don't need to install rainlender
[06:04] <hairulfr> bulmer: Yes, I did, rather confusing I think, hmm.
[06:04] <martinimnetz> el-sio: just checking whether we're talking about the same screen. Seems we do, basically. But i only read: "Item: PCM" and nothing else.
[06:04] <kuma> Ber: ok... unpacking
[06:04] <bulmer> hairulfr: what is the fstab entry you made to mount that partition?
[06:04] <el-sio> humff
[06:04] <el-sio> strange
[06:04] <el-sio> so now I am quite sure the problems comes from here ^ ^
[06:05] <martinimnetz> el-sio: no indication of db gain whatsoever.
[06:05] <kuma> Ber: unpacked
[06:05] <hairulfr> bulmer: Uhm, I didn't use fstab, I just mounted it  - - that's the problem?
[06:05] <n2diy_> ! gnash
[06:05] <ubotu> An open source flash replacement.  It is still beta software. For current status or for more info http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/
[06:05] <el-sio> thx for trying martinimnetz
[06:05] <el-sio> :)
[06:05] <Ber> kuma: okay, try to start rainlendar2
[06:05] <bulmer> hairulfr: no its not a problem,,  type mount and paste here the line for that mounted partition you wish to write on
[06:06] <Ber> kuma: it's not working, is it?
[06:06] <kuma> Ber: yes it is :)
[06:06] <lisette> im on dapper and when i do "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" it tells me "ubuntu-desktop: Depends: x-window-system-core but it is not going to be installed" how to fix it?
[06:06] <martinimnetz> el-sio: sure, no worries. the only entry giving me a gain value is mic boost.
[06:06] <Ber> kuma: happy rainLendering
[06:06] <kuma> Ber: lol, thanks
[06:06] <Ber> kuma: welcome
[06:06] <el-sio> and what is this one martinimnetz ? mine is around 22
[06:07] <martinimnetz> el-sio: 20 db
[06:07] <mnoir> lisette: if you use apt-get you will need to do such dependent installs first.  if you use synaptic, alot of that will be done sutomatically
[06:07] <makuseru> can someone please help me get sound working on edgy
[06:08] <Anders> :O
[06:08] <hairulfr> buler: Oddly, that partition doesn't show up, but it's is mounted, I can read it
[06:08] <lisette> mnoir: what?
[06:08] <bulmer> makuseru: i dont know much about sound..but try  alsaconf  to see if it will detect your sound chips..etc
[06:08] <hairulfr> bulmer: Oddly, that partition doesn't show up, but it's is mounted, I can read it
[06:08] <el-sio> ok thx martinimnetz
[06:09] <mnoir> lisette: it is saying that a dependency must be met but you have not asked to install it
[06:09] <bulmer> hairulfr: thats odd..can you again type mount and see what partitions are mounted? you normally can not read an unmounted partition
[06:09] <mnoir> lisette: synaptic instead of apt-get is more helpful on this
[06:09] <lisette> mnoir: i have xorg installed
[06:10] <mnoir> lisette: i didn't see anything about xorg - your question referred to x-window-system-core
[06:10] <Stolencheese> 'Lo all, I'm back.. And you know what that means!
[06:10] <Stolencheese> I have a problem!
[06:11] <Music_Shuffle> lol
[06:11] <bulmer> hairulfr: which drive and which partition you want to use?
[06:11] <mnoir> Stolencheese: so do we?\
[06:11] <Stolencheese> *Yay! Cheer! Woot! Boo! Bah!*
[06:11] <Stolencheese> Doesn't everyone Mnoir, Doesn't everyone..

[06:12] <phr34ck> what am I suppose to do to fix it?
[06:12] <Stolencheese> By DVD, You mean Live CD yea?
[06:13] <curs0r> ok, this is starting to scare me, my screen is randomly turning itself on and off
[06:13] <Stolencheese> Curs0R, Check it's properly plugged in.
[06:13] <phr34ck> Owhhhhhhhhhhhh wait, nevemrind.
[06:13] <Tmi> curs0r: using DVI?
[06:13] <phr34ck> I put the wrong DVD, *went to search for the AMD version*
[06:13] <Tmi> heard DVI-connected screens might do that sometimes
[06:13] <ExxKA> Stolencheese you have got the propper codecs, right?
[06:13] <curs0r> Tmi, yes but it never did this until just now
[06:14] <Tmi> dont have one myself yet so i don't know
[06:14] <curs0r> Tmi, my X server has been mysteriously crashing on 3d apps too, just started a few days ago
[06:14] <skmidry> Anybody has experience with WPA with Intel 3945 wireless?
[06:15] <skmidry> I'm using dapper and am unable to configure WPA
[06:15] <skmidry> with my router being WRT54G linksys
[06:15] <Tmi> Afraid I'm a total linux newbie so I can hardly help :P
[06:15] <Stolencheese> Yep, Tbh, I installed Linux today and already been asked a load of questions.
[06:16] <curs0r> huh, i stopped mplayer and now my screen seems to have stopped blanking
[06:16] <hou5ton> my Home folder gets cluttered up with things I download and install, and then don't know how to move.
[06:16] <Stolencheese> And somehow managed to solve one.. o.O
[06:16] <baxter_kylie> Hi. I'm using 6.10 and can't find the madwifi module. Has this been rolled into the kernel?
[06:16] <jrib> hou5ton: go to places > home and move them
[06:16] <martinimnetz> Bye everybody.
[06:16] <Stolencheese> Hou5ton: Drag them to the bottom right corner, A little (orange?) trash can is there.
[06:17] <carlos> hello, i install rdesktop 1.5 but i still get "connection reset by peer" messages
[06:17] <hou5ton> jrib:   Stolencheese:  well ... actually, a couple of them are applications that got installed in my home folder because I didn't know better
[06:17] <hou5ton> For example, IE, Google Earth, .....
[06:18] <hou5ton> I have IE installed because FireFox won't work to update attendance and grades on the college website where I teach.
[06:18] <hou5ton> weird
[06:18] <emss> how would use speed up nautilus on ubuntu 6.10?
[06:18] <Ber> hou5ton: kick the webmaster of that site??
[06:18] <h3xis> hou5ton, maybe you should try a different browser
[06:18] <emss> use/you, this is an older system and nautilu is extremely slow, I mean over a seconds to display a directory with one directory inside it
[06:18] <emss> that is sloooooow
[06:18] <hou5ton> h3xis:   I did ... that's why I installed IE
[06:19] <h3xis> hou5ton, IE is terrible :P i mean opera
[06:19] <carlos> is there another client like rdesktop
[06:19] <cardboard_box> hello
[06:19] <hou5ton> h3xis:   all I need to do with it is enter grades and attendance ... just takes a few minutes
[06:20] <jrib> hou5ton: there's nothing wrong with leaving them there
[06:20] <hou5ton> jrib:   ya .... I was just saying that I wish I had known better when I installed them, so I would have put the someplace else .. they are kind of cluttering there
[06:21] <jrib> hou5ton: if you want to install something system-wide that isn't available in synaptic then /opt and /usr/local are good places, but your $HOME works fine too if you just have one user.  Do you know about sudo?
[06:21] <hou5ton> jrib:   yes
[06:21] <cardboard_box> how do i use ubuntu to kill my enemies?
[06:21] <jrib> hou5ton: k, so do you just want to know the "move" command then?
[06:22] <jrib> cardboard_box: ubuntu is a peaceful distro
[06:22] <h3xis> cardboard_box, youve already lost the battle
[06:22] <cardboard_box> damn!
[06:22] <Ber> jrib: Is there a posibility to make a new program available via bash from everywhere without typing in the exact folder?
[06:22] <hou5ton> jrib:   well .... if it's anything like windows, if I move something it is sure to break
[06:22] <Goldline> ey guys i got a question uh well im not sure if someone form outside can connect to my irc server, i know that it works over the lan, so i was hoping someone could ?
[06:22] <h3xis> Ber, yes. you need to put it in your $PATH. "how" you ask? i do not remember
[06:23] <jrib> Ber: sure, just put (a link to) the binary somewhere in your $PATH.  /usr/local/bin is usually a good spot for custom stuff
[06:23] <h3xis> Goldline, what's the server
[06:23] <Ber> thaxs @h3xis & jrib!
[06:23] <Goldline> sec
[06:23] <jrib> hou5ton: it should work, you can always move it back if it doesn't :)
[06:23] <TuxCrafter> does someone now what the apport service does?
[06:24] <dcordes> Did somebody try Far Cry on wine?
[06:24] <Goldline> h3xis i dont sail i pm the irc server address ? i dont have a domain yet...
[06:24] <mnoir> hou5ton: or cp instead of mv then test then rm the old one if ok
[06:24] <h3xis> Goldline, sure
[06:25] <Goldline> can u pm me, i cant find the pm button, srry
[06:25] <hou5ton> ok .... so where is the most likely folder that would be used for applications?  I don't see one named "Programs"  ??
[06:25] <jrib> hou5ton: if you want to install something system-wide that isn't available in synaptic then /opt and /usr/local are good places, but your $HOME works fine too if you just have one user.  Do you know about sudo?
[06:25] <jrib> erm ignore that last part, I just scrolled up
[06:26] <mnoir> hou5ton: optional
[06:26] <TuxCrafter> does someone now what the init.d/apport service does?
[06:27] <jrib> hou5ton: http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#OPTADDONAPPLICATIONSOFTWAREPACKAGES
[06:27] <mnoir> hou5ton: http://www.pathname.com/http://www.pathname.com/fhs// for more info

[06:29] <gurkZor> It did work some days ago
[06:29] <jrib> TuxCrafter: apt-cache show apport
[06:29] <emss> TuxCrafter: apport?
[06:29] <mnoir> gurkZor: release 6.06 or 6.10?
[06:30] <Goldline> eh anyone else want to try to ocnnect to my server, h3xis doesnt respond to my pms
[06:30] <Stolencheese> GurkZor: Try taking your socks out the discdrive. Bwahahaha! I'm so lame.. ;(
[06:30] <mnoir> of ubuntu?
[06:30] <h3xis> Goldline, i pmed you.
[06:30] <gurkZor> I've changed /etc/hosts, /etc/apache2/httpd.conf, /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[06:30] <TuxCrafter> jrib thanks i will keep that trick in mind
[06:30] <h3xis> Goldline, you didnt respond
[06:30] <Goldline> i pmed the irc server address back, u received that ?
[06:30] <gurkZor> mnoir:  6,10 (edgy?)

[06:30] <Goldline> huh, hows that possible, i pmed u back
[06:30] <Gizmo_the_Great1> Is there a chess app that compares to MSN Chess? All the one's I've found for Linux either look terrible or are not very intuitive. MSN Chess is great though. Anything similar for Ubuntu?
[06:30] <grimboy> I shall call it rapid sync.
[06:31] <mnoir> gurkZor: 1.  what goal for your changes.  2.  maybe restore all your backups of those files and start over slowly?
[06:31] <h3xis> Goldline, do /msg h3xis blahhh
[06:31] <TuxCrafter> bye gus thanks for the help
[06:31] <curs0r> turns out the problem with my video driver was that one really should pay attention and run that script as root
[06:31] <mnoir> gurkZor: i have a working lamp sys on 6.10 and 6.06 here :)
[06:31] <gurkZor> mnoir: 1. I was at a LAN-party, 2. Backups? :-D
[06:31] <gurkZor> I'll try to find my backups..
[06:32] <glyn> hey, how do I mount a CD-ROM drive?
[06:32] <Alakazamz0r> mount /media/cdrom
[06:32] <Goldline> u got it
[06:32] <glyn> hmm it gave me this message
[06:32] <h3xis> Goldline, no. just do it in pastebin or something
[06:32] <N1kki> Hi, just a quick question, is there any way to get Ubuntu to auto login
[06:32] <glyn> mount: special device /dev/hdc does not exist
[06:32] <Alakazamz0r> glyn, do you have a CDROM in it?
[06:32] <glyn> yeah
[06:32] <Alakazamz0r> glyn, try "mount -a"
[06:32] <mnoir> gurkZor: hmm - so you were just making it all work on the temp lan?
[06:33] <gurkZor> Yup mnoir
[06:33] <Stolencheese> N1kki: I don't think so... I wish there was!
[06:33] <jin> I love Ubuntu
[06:33] <mnoir> gurkZor: my files are pretty plain vanilla on 6.10 - you want me to pastebin?
[06:33] <glyn> hmm that doesn't do anything at all
[06:33] <N1kki> oh, darn :(
[06:33] <Gizmo_the_Great1> When I close the lid on my laptop it hibernates, as per the Power Management settings. But it doesn't actually turn itself off (unlike the Windows hibernate) - it just goes into like a Stand By mode. Any ideas how to get it to hibernate but turn itself off to preserve battery, other than a full shutdown!ny ideas why hibernate on Edgy
[06:33] <higltypig> hi guys -I've got my speedtouch ADSL kinda working but it seems that I have to manually run the pppd command everytime to get it to connect - any way to get this to autoconnect?
[06:33] <Goldline> h3xis just pm me again, it has to work
[06:33] <gurkZor> mnoir: no thx, I'll try to use my backups
[06:34] <Stolencheese> N1kki: I've just been informed, You can!
[06:34] <h3xis> there i pmed you again Goldline
[06:34] <glyn> I've been having problems with the CD-ROM drive but I thought maybe I'd have to mount it to get it to work
[06:34] <N1kki> i've got 3 machines and am working with iptables, only one monitor attached to the middle pc, hence when i turn them all on i wanted it so it autologins
[06:34] <mnoir> gurkZor: ok - if you figure out exactly what went wrong let me know :)
[06:34] <N1kki> or can I login via SSH even if no one is logged in yet?
[06:34] <Goldline> h3xis i justy pmed: you see this message now, u got that ?
[06:35] <h3xis> n1kk1 you can use ssh even if no1 is logged in
[06:35] <h3xis> Goldline, no.
[06:35] <Stolencheese> N1kki: Found the answer!!
[06:35] <Stolencheese> Everyone listen for Auto-Login!!
[06:35] <mnoir> N1kki: yes ssh will work - the machine is not using the local x session for the remote access
[06:35] <h3xis> Goldline, it's on your end because im able to pm other people now
[06:35] <Goldline> hm what now, i dont wanan give out my ip to everyone
[06:35] <mnoir> N1uuh - the remote x session i mean
[06:35] <h3xis> Goldline, why not?
[06:35] <baxter_kylie> Anyone know how to get madwifi working in 6.10?
[06:35] <Goldline> h3xis could you set up ur own room, so i can give my ip there
[06:35] <Stolencheese> System > Administrator > Login Window > Security      For Auto login!!
[06:35] <N1kki> wowser
[06:36] <h3xis> Goldline, #goldline
[06:36] <N1kki> sorry my kid brother typed that!
[06:36] <cypherdelic> hello

[06:37] <N1kki> yes :)
[06:37] <cypherdelic> can anyone help me with "no sound playing videos", xmms works!
[06:37] <N1kki> answer was to login via SSH right?
[06:37] <N1kki> oh i got you
[06:37] <N1kki> i just saw your msg now
[06:38] <Stolencheese> Anmswer was for Auto-Login,

[06:38] <N1kki> nice one :)
[06:38] <atoponce> driving me nuts
[06:38] <mnoir> N1kki: you can but he was giving you another answer
[06:38] <Stolencheese> Go to Login Screen, And there's lots of options,
[06:38] <Stolencheese> Even Remote acess.
[06:38] <djm62> alok: double-click on a .torrent file or click on a torrent link
[06:38] <N1kki> yep sorry just saw that, good work!
[06:38] <N1kki> thanks stolencheese
[06:38] <Stolencheese> Np,
[06:38] <curs0r> oh good, mplayer is doing it too
[06:38] <Gizmo_the_Great1> what command will list the IP addresses of all the machines running on my netwrok?
[06:38] <dcordes> wow we cracked the +1000-users-on-the-channel-mark
[06:38] <Stolencheese> Nikki: I set my custom message to: If your not James! Restart and select Windows this time! Linux Ftw!
[06:39] <djm62> alok: bittorrent should start automatically then
[06:39] <whta> How can I get sound recording working with a USB mic?
[06:39] <higltypig> in the DIAL file for the speedtouch ADSL, if I increase the sleep=1 to sleep=50 - that would make it wait longer between tries right?
[06:39] <N1kki> lol
[06:40] <Goldline> h3xis i dont see you on my irc server
[06:40] <Goldline> so i closed it
[06:40] <h3xis> Goldline, because it refused my connection. it said i wasnt authenticated
[06:40] <Goldline> how can i fix that ?
[06:40] <cypherdelic> can anyone help me with "no sound playing videos", xmms works!
[06:41] <cypherdelic> please
[06:41] <atoponce> a have a daemon running on ports [6666|7|8|9] . any idea how to figure out what the daemon is?
[06:41] <h3xis> Goldline, no idea. ive never ran an ircd
[06:41] <whta> also i read somewhere that there's an official package out for windows fonts. how can i get hat?
[06:41] <cypherdelic> ive tried installign the codecs from synaptics
[06:41] <curs0r> well... i guess i have to go back to windows, ubuntu is unusable if it's going to do this
[06:41] <h3xis> whta, sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts
[06:41] <Goldline> did you put in my ip without the port number and did you then press the connect button ?
[06:41] <whta> thanks h3xis
[06:41] <h3xis> Goldline, i type /server <your ip>
[06:41] <parktownprawn> cypherdelic: what codec did you try install
[06:42] <Hoag> Hey, is it possible to make a program independant of the set theme?
[06:42] <Goldline> is that the same as you would have added me through the netwoel list ?
[06:42] <Goldline> network list *
[06:42] <N1kki> ok just restarted, hopefully should auto-login (although it didnt ask for my password, just selected the user to login)
[06:42] <Hoag> Ie, Have open office display the human theme, while the rest show my custom theme?
[06:42] <alok> djm62: thnx 4 ur valuable info
[06:42] <h3xis> Goldline, i guess? i'm in bitchx
[06:42] <tim167> i have dualhead working, two identical screens, but mouse cursor just on one how come ?
[06:42] <h3xis> Goldline, it defaults to 6667
[06:43] <Goldline> i opened up 6667 tcp, and i forwarded it to my lan ip in the router/firewall
[06:43] <h3xis> Goldline, it's not a forwarding issue
[06:43] <N1kki> nice it worked!
[06:43] <ardchoille42> Hoag, I don't think so. Usually, the app just loads and gnome-settings-daemon takes care of the theme stuff.
[06:43] <h3xis> Goldline, sounds like identd
[06:43] <Goldline> identd ?
[06:43] <curs0r> i think this might be the most annoying possible event
[06:44] <tim167> why doesnt my second monitor show the mouse cursor (everything else is mirrored) ??
[06:44] <Goldline> so you suggest turning off that option ?
[06:44] <h3xis> Goldline, it's the auth protocol
[06:44] <h3xis> Goldline, yes
[06:44] <Hoag> ardchoille42: Alright, cheers. Then, is there any fast way to switch themes, like a panel button?
[06:44] <Goldline> how ?
[06:44] <h3xis> Goldline, i dont know :P
[06:44] <Goldline> do you know how i can turn it off ?
[06:44] <higltypig> in the DIAL file for the speedtouch ADSL, if I increase the sleep=1 to sleep=50 - that would make it wait longer between tries right?
[06:44] <Oncer> What is the path of the desktop folders in Ubuntu
[06:44] <Oncer> Please.
[06:44] <h3xis> Goldline, no. refer to the deamon's documentation or google it?
[06:45] <ardchoille42> Hoag, There might be, although I have never seen this. This would be quite cool.
[06:45] <h3xis> Oncer, /home/your_user/Desktop
[06:45] <Oncer> Thanks.
[06:45] <Hoag> ardchoille42: Hehe, alright. I'll prowl the internet. Thanks for the time.
[06:45] <ardchoille42> Hoag, You can do a search at http://www.gnomefiles.org/ and if you find something there,  check to see if the app is in the repos before installing from source.
[06:46] <curs0r> over 1000 people in here and no one has any idea?
[06:46] <carlos> nope
[06:47] <h3xis> curs0r, just because you cant get it to work in ubuntu doesnt mean you should revert back to windows :P
[06:47] <N1kki> sorry curs0r whats teh problem, your monitor turns off?
[06:47] <N1kki> i just cant link firefox to your monitor turning off
[06:48] <Hoag> ardchoille42: Can't find anything. I'll keep my eyes peeled though, cheers :)
[06:48] <QuaLjyn> h3xis: sometimes ubuntu does lead to show-stopping problems though :(
[06:48] <curs0r> N1kki, this just started today, not just firefox, almost any app other than xchat or gaim or termianl
[06:48] <curs0r> terminal
[06:48] <djm62> curs0r: what has changed since it didn't happen?
[06:48] <rmorris84> curs0r: what's wrong? lol
[06:48] <ardchoille42> curs0r, Before you "go back to Windows", if you can't get it fixed, try a different Linux distro. I have found that an unfixable problem in one distro won't even be a problem in another distro.
[06:48] <h3xis> QuaLjyn, actually i was referring to the hint of choosing another distro :P
[06:48] <Stolencheese> http://tech.mikelopez.info/2006/09/14/worlds-dumbest-hacker/
[06:48] <N1kki> very strange, i mean if it was a program that changed your resoluton or something to work then its understandable
[06:48] <QuaLjyn> h3xis: haha, i assumed so :)
[06:49] <curs0r> my 3d apps are no longer taking out X since i recompiled the nvidia 97xx driver, but i hve this intermittent blanking
[06:49] <N1kki> xchat and gaim have GUI too right?
[06:49] <sgorf> curs0r: Sounds like a dodgy graphics card or driver or dodgy monitor to me. Try lowering your screen res.
[06:49] <h3xis> N1kki, uh. yeah. that's all they have
[06:49] <hou5ton> UGH ... lost the link you guys posted that describes all about the file structure of linux.  Still got it??
[06:49] <tim167> Dual monitor setup, two identical screens, but no mouse cursor visible on one of them, how come ?
[06:49] <curs0r> sgorf, so it's just luck that it's been working fine for the last 2 months?
[06:49] <QuaLjyn> h3xis: actually i'm a windows lover myself. But my work leads me to interest myself in linux - and of the many different distros ubuntu (debian) seems the best to me
[06:49] <gili> hello...do you guys know what i neeed to install to have aMSN read hebrew the correct direction...Right2left?
[06:49] <N1kki> just trying to think what does xhchat and gaim do differently from firefox
[06:50] <whileimhere> Can anyone tell me what app is running the bar on the bottom of this screen shot? http://twiki.im.ufba.br/pub/Main/CleytonFabio/pixies_kde_ubuntu_4.10.png
[06:50] <djm62> curs0r: is it definitely /because/ you launch firefox or similar? not just happening at a similar time?
[06:50] <sgorf> curs0r: If you've not changed anything then it's even more likely to be a hardware fault. Once it goes off does pressing Ctrl-Alt-F1 bring it back?
[06:50] <QuaLjyn> h3xis: I do quite a lot of .net next to my primary work as an oracle admin. But linux sure seems nice :)
[06:50] <h3xis> QuaLjyn, i use debian now. only reason im here is because i like helping people when i feel like it and problems are are usually easy to troubleshoot
[06:51] <curs0r> sgorf, that has no effect on it really, it stays blank the same amount of time and then tty1 shows
[06:51] <N1kki> right gotta go, C ya later, thanks for the help guys
[06:51] <tim167> h3xis: i have an easy one : Dual monitor setup, two identical screens, but no mouse cursor visible on one of them, how come ?
[06:51] <N1kki> good luck curs0r, dont let this put you off
[06:51] <curs0r> now it's doing it with only xchat running
[06:51] <chavo> whileimhere, probably superkaramba
[06:51] <QuaLjyn> h3xis: not that many months ago i hired one like you. A brilliant technician who advocates ubuntu, but uses debian himself :)
[06:51] <h3xis> QuaLjyn, well, let's just say i dont advocate ubuntu haha
[06:51] <whileimhere> chavo: Thanks it looks aweosome is there anything like it in gnome?
[06:51] <QuaLjyn> h3xis: and he kinda stirred my interest in linux :)
[06:52] <QuaLjyn> :))
[06:52] <ardchoille42> whileimhere, that is the kicker (panel in KDE) that just has transparency set for the background of the kicker.
[06:52] <chavo> whileimhere, gdesklets
[06:52] <h3xis> tim167, give me a sec and i'll look it up and ask around
[06:52] <gili> hello...do you guys know what i neeed to install to have aMSN read hebrew the correct direction...Right2left?
[06:52] <ardchoille42> whileimhere, notice the KDE menu button on the far left?
[06:52] <djm62> curs0r: I didn't come in when you were describing the problem originally: can you give a quick summary of the ways in which your setup differs from ubuntu 6.10 straight after installation?
[06:52] <chavo> archangelpetro, I think he means the dock type bar abothe kicker
[06:52] <tim167> h3xis, that would be great, it took me several hours to get the second display already :)
[06:52] <whileimhere> ardchollie42 yes I see that I meant above that first bar.
[06:52] <sgorf> curs0r: One of two things is happening: 1. something decides to change your (monitor) clock speed (eg. change res), or 2. hardware/driver fault. There's no reason why starting an app would change screen res unless you're using a really weird window manager. So if you've not changed anything a hardware fault sounds likley
[06:52] <curs0r> djm62, quick? no...
[06:52] <ardchoille42> chable, oh, my bad
[06:52] <wishyjr> hello chaps, i'm getting a 'failed to fetch' error when trying to upgrade to edgy from dapper. The actual error is: Failed to fetch http://media.blutkind.org/xgl/dists/dapper/Release.gpg Could not connect to media.blutkind.org:80 (<IP_ADDRESS>). - connect (111 Connection refused)
[06:53] <h3xis> tim167, that in itself is already a great feat. time after time i see people come in here dying to know how to do that
[06:53] <ardchoille42> Well, there's two people bitten by tab completion, lol
[06:53] <chavo> it might be gdesklets also
[06:53] <wishyjr> any thoughts? is there a server down or anywhere i can get what i need?
[06:53] <ircusr> hey
[06:53] <ircusr> someone please tell me the command to rename a file in linux
[06:53] <ircusr> ??
[06:53] <chavo> whileimhere, there are also a couple of dock programs available that can do the sam thing
[06:53] <ardchoille42> ircusr, mv
[06:53] <h3xis> ircusr, mv filename filename2
[06:54] <curs0r> sgorf, if that's true then my hardware was damaged by ubuntu or an app under ubuntu
[06:54] <eamusic> Hi there!
[06:54] <Rookie-1> mv old.name new.name
[06:54] <ircusr> isnt that for moving a file?
[06:54] <whileimhere> chavo like?
[06:54] <h3xis> ircusr, yes but it renames
[06:54] <ircusr> ah
[06:54] <ircusr> ok
[06:54] <sgorf> curs0r: In that case I think you're trolling
[06:54] <ircusr> thanks!!
[06:54] <ardchoille42> ircusr, it's the same thing
[06:54] <k010> Rookie-1, also used to rename
[06:54] <k010> Rookie-1, if its in the same dir
[06:54] <mike-e> i need to burn a dvd using .avi's i downloaded, do i need to convert them to some other format?
[06:54] <tim167> h3xis: I dove into xorg.conf hacking like a pro ;)
[06:54] <curs0r> sgorf, just because you don't know the answer doesn't mean i'm trolling jerk
[06:54] <eamusic> How i activate the openGL rendering in ubuntu 6.10 edgy
[06:54] <h3xis> tim167, my xorg.conf is a virgin
[06:54] <chavo> whileimhere, kooldock,kiba dock or ksmoothdock are some
[06:55] <parktownprawn> wishyjr: looks like you added some repository to install xgl right?
[06:55] <HymnToLife> eamusic, do you have correct drivers for your graphics card installed ?
[06:55] <whileimhere> They all seem to be KDE based
[06:55] <sgorf> curs0r: If you have recent hardware it isn't possible for any OS to damage hardware
[06:55] <whileimhere> I am thinking of going to try out KUbuntu
[06:55] <djm62> curs0r: as lengthy a description as it takes of the difference between your current setup and ubuntu 6.10 straight off the CD would be handy.  (Installing a new kernel is more relevant than installing emacs, for instance)
[06:55] <k010> Rookie-1, sry man thought u were asking the questin
[06:55] <chavo> kiba dock isn't kde based, but I believe it needs XGL/AIGLX
[06:55] <gili> hello...do you guys know what i neeed to install to have aMSN read hebrew the correct direction...Right2left?
[06:55] <chavo> I haven't tried any of the dock apps in a while
[06:56] <Rookie-1> k010 - nope, just answered on the q howto rename
[06:56] <ardchoille42> mike-e, You can burn the avi's to a dvd with a burning app. If you mean to create a viewable DVD from avi files, try looking at this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=337268
[06:56] <djm62> curs0r: or just anything you've done in the time between when you last knew it was definitely working and when you first realised it definitely wasn't... whichever is easiest
[06:56] <h3xis> tim167, im still looking. ive found people who have been able to get it working but theyre not telling how
[06:56] <curs0r> sgorf, then my hardware isn't damaged
[06:56] <wishyjr> parktownprawn: yeah, i think i did
[06:57] <wishyjr> do i need to remove that?
[06:57] <k010> how can i excute a bash script using a shortcut
[06:57] <curs0r> sgorf, if it were this problem would have arisen long ago
[06:57] <tim167> h3xis: hmm
[06:57] <parktownprawn> wishjyr: well i would advise removing that first
[06:57] <jrib> k010: use a symlink
[06:57] <wishyjr> parktwonprawn: thanks. i'll try that
[06:57] <h3xis> tim167, when you go into console does it span across both of them or are you given 2 consoles?
[06:57] <eamusic> HymnToLife: I have installed all drivers for my Nvidia FX5500 and its working
[06:58] <sgorf> curs0r: Have you tried an alternate monitor? Have you tried lowering your screen res? No? Then we don't know. You should try it because then at least you've eliminated that possibility
[06:58] <tim167> h3xis 2 consoles, and that's what I need btw
[06:58] <LiquidScythe> hi
[06:59] <parktownprawn> wishjyr: i would also advise checking out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades
[06:59] <ardchoille42> hi
[06:59] <eamusic> HymnToLife: i have installed CEDEGA, but when it goes to rendering probe of openGL it fails
[06:59] <pollywog> when I use the less command to view a file and I then use 'v' to edit, nano opens the file, how can I change this behavior to open vim?
[06:59] <gili> hello...do you guys know what i neeed to install to have aMSN read hebrew the correct direction...Right2left?
[06:59] <HymnToLife> can't help you with cedega, sorry
[06:59] <LiquidScythe> when i try and boot up ubuntu from the cd it freezes at the loading bar screen
[06:59] <HymnToLife> maybe you could try some native game to sse if openGL works there
[06:59] <LiquidScythe> it just freezes at the last bar of the loading bar
[06:59] <HymnToLife> see*
[06:59] <pollywog> eamusic: Nvidia?
[06:59] <Pobega> LiquidScythe: How much RAM do you have?
[07:00] <LiquidScythe> hmm
[07:00] <parktownprawn> wishjyr: it might be advisable to remove any non standard: ie. not from the Ubuntu repositories before upgrading
[07:00] <MKR> dihydrogen monoxide is fun
[07:00] <ardchoille42> pollywog, I just put "export EDITOR=vim" (without quotes) into ~/.bashrc and it worked.
[07:00] <LiquidScythe> 750 MB i think and like 512 MB video RAM
[07:00] <pollywog> ardchoille42: thanks
[07:00] <MKR> oh, wrong channel
[07:00] <h3xis> tim167, i'm not sure about this dual monitor stuff as ive never done it before, but i keep seeing a reference to "xinerama" are you using that?
[07:00] <wishyjr> parktownprawn: hey, that worked -thanks very much!
[07:00] <Pobega> LiquidScythe: Then that isn't the problem. What speed did you burn the CD at?
[07:00] <ardchoille42> MKR, yes, water is fun ;)
[07:01] <pollywog> eamusic: Nvidia?
[07:01] <MKR> :D
[07:01] <LiquidScythe> very low speed
[07:01] <tim167> h3xis: yes, xinerama was the only way i could have 2 identical screens
[07:01] <parktownprawn> wishjyr: good luck
[07:01] <Pobega> LiquidScythe: Did you check the ISO's md5sum?
[07:01] <LiquidScythe> yes
[07:01] <tim167> h3xis, that I know of at least...
[07:01] <LiquidScythe> i chose the boot iso image
[07:01] <LiquidScythe> in nero
[07:01] <LiquidScythe> it took a while tho for some reason
[07:01] <LiquidScythe> like half an hour to 45 mins
[07:02] <eamusic> pollywog: Yes
[07:02] <Pobega> LiquidScythe: To burn?
[07:02] <LiquidScythe> yes
[07:02] <ardchoille42> pollywog, You may have to log out and back in for the system to pick up changes to ~/.bashrc
[07:02] <h3xis> tim167, what video card?
[07:02] <curs0r> sgorf, there's nothing wrong with my hardware, now say something useful or let someone else try to help
[07:02] <Pobega> LiquidScythe: 4x speed I assume, hm.
[07:02] <LiquidScythe> yes
[07:02] <LiquidScythe> im pretty sure
[07:02] <sgorf> curs0r: And you know this how?
[07:02] <Pobega> LiquidScythe: I would just try a simple reburn then, it took me about 6 CDs even on 4x.
[07:02] <pollywog> ardchoille42: yes thanks
[07:02] <curs0r> well because it's fine in windows and osx86
[07:02] <tim167> nvidia drivers, card = Gainward 6600 -something
[07:02] <LiquidScythe> reburn?
[07:02] <Pobega> LiquidScythe: Use another CD though, don't wipe/burn.
[07:03] <pollywog> eamusic: what does the glxgears command do?
[07:03] <LiquidScythe> k i have one left
[07:03] <h3xis> tim167, okay im seeing that TwinView works
[07:03] <LiquidScythe> should i change the speed?
[07:03] <Pobega> RW or R?
[07:03] <pollywog> what does it show, gears?
[07:03] <sgorf> curs0r: That doesn't tell you anything. Windows and OS X will be using different clock rates even at the same resolution
[07:03] <LiquidScythe> or what
[07:03] <Pobega> Well I did mine on 8x, seemed to work fine. I'd keep it on 4x though, just to be safe.
[07:03] <h3xis> tim167, it tricks X into thinking there is 1 screen so that you can use your mouse across them
[07:03] <Pobega> Are these CDs old/scratched?
[07:03] <sgorf> curs0r: That's why I said drop your res as then if it works you know that it could be the X ModeLine
[07:03] <LiquidScythe> no
[07:03] <LiquidScythe> they are new
[07:04] <LiquidScythe> and in the case
[07:04] <Pobega> Are they CD-R or CD-RW?
[07:04] <LiquidScythe> CD-R
[07:04] <LiquidScythe> CD-RW
[07:04] <tim167> h3xis is TwinView an Option for ServerFlags ?
[07:04] <h3xis> tim167, i'm looking
[07:04] <curs0r> sgorf, wrong, there's no frequencies specified in my modelines
[07:04] <Pobega> Okay, I'd try to redownload and burn it onto another CD if possible.
[07:04] <h3xis> tim167, try this: http://www.ublug.org/ubuntu/twinview/twinview-howto-breezy.html
[07:04] <pollywog> eamusic: try the glxgears command in a console and see if you see gears spinning
[07:05] <mnk0> sup
[07:05] <mnk0> im having problems with mounting a 83/linux drive
[07:05] <sgorf> curs0r: Then it's using the default or whatever it's got using DDC or whatever it's called. You still have them. If you're not prepared to accept suggestions then please go away, or accept that you aren't going to have your problem fixed.
[07:05] <h3xis> tim167, tell me how it goes, im kind of interested
[07:05] <mnk0> ive always just used mount -t ext3 /dev/hdc /mnt/hdc
[07:05] <LiquidScythe> can you find me a link to download
[07:05] <mnk0> i get wrong fs type error now
[07:06] <eamusic> pollywog: i gonna do
[07:06] <curs0r> sgorf, as i requested before, say something useful or be silent
[07:06] <Pobega> mnk0: Try mount -t auto
[07:06] <pollywog> eamusic: k
[07:06] <curs0r> that's interesting, totem doesn't blank the screen, mplayer does...
[07:06] <mnk0> Pobega: still same error about must specify the filesystem type
[07:07] <PORDO> when i press the "power" button, i'm being logged out, instead of seeing the options menu (hibernate, restart, log out, switch user, etc.)
[07:07] <eamusic> pollywog: it works!
[07:07] <PORDO> this just started.
[07:07] <sgorf> curs0r: Drop your resolution and see if it stops, or try a different monitor. That will help eliminate a hardware fault and maybe isolate it to your modeline
[07:07] <pollywog> eamusic: okay that's good but it means I don't know why that test fails
[07:07] <Pobega> mnk0: Hmm...Does it recognize your drive? Try dmesg | grep hd
[07:07] <eamusic> pollywog: it apear 2 pieces moving
[07:07] <pollywog> eamusic: try asking on the Transgaming forums
[07:08] <pollywog> they might know why it fails
[07:08] <eamusic> pollywog: i think is that CEDEGA
[07:08] <mnk0> [17185862.288000]  VFS: Can't find ext3 filesystem on dev hdb.
[07:08] <mnk0> [17185862.368000]  VFS: Can't find ext3 filesystem on dev hdc.
[07:08] <mnk0> when i try to mount
[07:08] <parktownprawn> PORDO: that might mean the gnome-power manager is not running or has crashed
[07:08] <pollywog> Transgaming is Cedega
[07:08] <Pobega> mnk0: Like I said, try
[07:08] <Pobega> dmesg | grep hd
[07:08] <eamusic> yeah
[07:08] <nikin> hy
[07:08] <parktownprawn> PORDO: has the battery icon gone?
[07:08] <ardchoille42> mnk0, Are those cd or dvd drives?
[07:08] <Pobega> mnk0: Wait, sorry, I think i got that wrong.
[07:09] <mnk0> Pobega: i did that, and saw that there, ide hard disks
[07:09] <pollywog> because whenever I have seen it fail, it was missing glx or a mesa package
[07:09] <curs0r> sgorf, forgive my impatience, i just don't think that's right and i don't have another monitor
[07:09] <sgorf> curs0r: So drop your resolution then
[07:09] <mnk0> hmm, anything to look for in particular in the output of dmesg?
[07:09] <Pobega> mnk0: Yeah sorry, hold on.
[07:09] <LiquidScythe> can someone find me the link
[07:09] <LiquidScythe> to ubuntu

[07:09] <tim167> h3xis, I'll do without mouse cursor on 2nd screen for now, I'll look at it later, thanks anyway!
[07:09] <mnk0> kk
[07:09] <LiquidScythe> can someone find me the link

[07:09] <LiquidScythe> can someone find me the link
[07:09] <daniel1988_> hi folks! how to set up keybord shortcut for changing keyboard layouts in gnome? Thanks
[07:09] <h3xis> tim167, alright
[07:09] <sgorf> curs0r: If your monitor turns off there are two reasons. Either you're using a modeline that it doesn't support or you've asked it to turn off (power saving).
[07:10] <sgorf> curs0r: That's it.  It knows your hdc drive is there.
[07:10] <ardchoille42> LiquidScythe, ???
[07:10] <n2diy_> sgorf: will dropping the res lower the horz. scan rate?
[07:10] <pollywog> I have a small problem with my wifi card being enabled when I boot, even though I have not set it up to do that, is there a way to fix that?
[07:11] <whileimhere> Okay this is not ment to start a flame war so please dont  but what is the big difference between KDE and GNOME aside from looks? Is there a major license issue somewhere?
[07:11] <mnk0> i had them mounted fine .. on my other system
[07:11] <sgorf> n2diy_: It would normally drop everything
[07:11] <mnk0> as ext3
[07:11] <ardchoille42> LiquidScythe, Was that not what you wanted?
[07:11] <eamusic> pollywog: thank u very much
[07:11] <adaptr> !language | LiquidScythe
[07:11] <ubotu> LiquidScythe: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:11] <LiquidScythe> can someone get me the direct link
[07:11] <Pobega> mnk0: Hm, give me a minute to think.
[07:11] <LiquidScythe> =/
[07:11] <curs0r> sgorf, so mplayer decides my monitor frequency? i don't think so
[07:11] <pollywog> whileimhere: there were licensing issues but no more, it is a matter of preference
[07:11] <adaptr> !ubuntu
[07:11] <ubotu> Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuHowCome
[07:11] <Pobega> mnk0: What kind of drive is this?
[07:11] <ardchoille42> LiquidScythe, That is a direct link to what you asked for
[07:12] <Pobega> LiquidScythe: It's on the site, just browse a minute.
[07:12] <whileimhere> Is that so pollywag
[07:12] <LiquidScythe> i know
[07:12] <C_REATiVE> hy
[07:12] <LiquidScythe> i just dont want to get the wrong one
[07:12] <sgorf> curs0r: If your modeline isn't really supported by the monitor and is borderline, then the monitor may occasionally decide that it's too high and go off until you change what you're doing. It's all analog remember. I've seen it before. I'm betting you're using VGA and not DVI.
[07:12] <Pobega> x86 architectue?
[07:12] <mnk0> western digital
[07:12] <whileimhere> pollywog: what kind of issues?
[07:12] <pollywog> I find KDE has more apps and is "fancier" but again that is a matter of debate
[07:12] <curs0r> sgorf, wrong again
[07:12] <Pobega> mnk0: External?
[07:12] <n2diy_> sgorf: roger, sounds like curs0r has is h. scan rate to high, and is overheating the h. output transistor, which will eventually frie, if he doesn't correct it.
[07:12] <mnk0> no internal
[07:12] <pollywog> the OLD issues had to do with the licensing of QT
[07:12] <Oncer> How do I boot a GUI from root terminal?
[07:13] <Pobega> pollywog: KDE has always seemed too busy for me ;D
[07:13] <mnk0> there on the secondary IDE chain
[07:13] <nikin> what is the best vector based drawing program for Ubuntu?
[07:13] <pollywog> but Trolltech has addressed that
[07:13] <ardchoille42> LiquidScythe, Which version of Ubuntu do you want? Alternate LiveCD? Edgy? Dapper? Server?
[07:13] <whileimhere> QT? Quicktime?
[07:13] <daniel1988_> hi folks! how to set up keybord shortcut for changing keyboard layouts in gnome? Thanks... anyone?
[07:13] <h3xis> nikin, inkscape, so ive heard
[07:13] <pollywog> Pobega: yes I can see that some might think KDE is too busy
[07:13] <PORDO> parktownprawn battery icon?
[07:13] <Oncer> How do I boot the GUI from root terminal?
[07:13] <PORDO> gdm ?
[07:13] <tim167> how strange, when I want to power down I can only chose 'hibernate'. shut down and restart have dissapeared
[07:13] <parktownprawn> Oncer: typing "init 5" will start gdm
[07:13] <Pobega> mnk0: I'm still thinking about it, sorry.
[07:13] <pollywog> whileimhere: no, the QT widget set
[07:13] <Pobega> mnk0: I haven't forgotten you ;P
[07:13] <nikin> ok ty
[07:14] <Oncer> Thanks.
[07:14] <sgorf> n2diy_: I still reckon that his hardware understands and will protect itself. Everything built after maybe about 1985 will. But yes - some parameter in his modeline is borderline out of range for what his hardware will accept
[07:14] <mnk0> Pobega: ahh k that koewl, im tryin out some other things also
[07:14] <whileimhere> I see.
[07:14] <whileimhere> Okay
[07:14] <whileimhere> Hmm so its now just a matter of preference?
[07:14] <pollywog> whileimhere: Gnome uses GTK rather than QT
[07:14] <ircusr> hey
[07:14] <ircusr> i have a question
[07:14] <pollywog> whileimhere: yes
[07:14] <mnk0> Pobega: strange thing is, they were mounted in 'ubuntu 6.06' fine, i reinstalled my system with 'xbuntu 6.10' and now in this situation
[07:14] <ircusr> im running ubuntu from vmware
[07:14] <curs0r> i didn't even use autodetect (or dpms whatever it is) i specified the exact freqs of my montior
[07:14] <parktownprawn> PORDO: i mean the gnome-power panel applet - it disappears if the gnome-power manager crashes
[07:15] <ircusr> and im wondering if i can enable 3d accel from vmware
[07:15] <n2diy_> sgorf: agreed.
[07:15] <Pobega> mnk0: I'm using Xubuntu as well, it's a nice tidy DE isn't it?
[07:15] <erisco> what is a good hex editor? I did a cache search, but it came up with quite a few... any recommendations?
[07:15] <whileimhere> I used to love K3B and still use it but also tried gnomebaker
[07:15] <curs0r> well if you 2 are done jerking each other off...
[07:15] <pollywog> QT is not completely free, for example, you cannot use the free version of QT to make commercial software, only software that is not sold
[07:15] <ircusr> hello?
[07:15] <gouchi> Hi
[07:15] <whileimhere> Well I dont think its a problem for me cause I dont program software just use it
[07:15] <h3xis> ircusr, i do not think so
[07:15] <gouchi> I'm trying to login into Gnome
[07:16] <ircusr> it's not possible to have 3d accel from vmware?
[07:16] <gouchi> but I have this error on my .xsession-errors
[07:16] <mnk0> Pobega: oh yeaj i kno it's really sweet
[07:16] <oknewbie> greetings
[07:16] <Pobega> mnk0: Are you able to mount CDs, or is this problem isolated to just your drive?
[07:16] <pollywog> whileimhere: do you read TUX magazine?
[07:16] <gouchi> http://rafb.net/p/3dKbZx11.html
[07:16] <mnk0> it's just the drive.
[07:16] <h3xis> ircusr, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=84344
[07:16] <whileimhere> pollywog: I have
[07:16] <sgorf> erisco: Years ago I used khexedit or something. That evolved into some kind of more generic binary editor IIRC. It was the best one I could find. Never found a GNOME/GTK one.
[07:16] <ircusr> what does it say?
[07:17] <pollywog> whileimhere: Mango Parfait?
[07:17] <h3xis> ircusr, go to it and see for yourself
[07:17] <gouchi> mkdtemp: private socket dir: Permission denied running on Edgy
[07:17] <n2diy_> curs0r: heh, my monitor worksl! Your the one frying yours.
[07:17] <ircusr> my browser doesnt work
[07:17] <ircusr> could you read it to me plz?
[07:17] <erisco> sgorf, I will look into it, thanks
[07:17] <whileimhere> pollywog: Yes I read those
[07:17] <mnk0> Pobega: well also.. i had the cdrom .. on dev/hdc , when i installed, and then after i took the cdrom out, and put these drives in
[07:17] <pollywog> :)
[07:17] <curs0r> n2diy_, you're both idiots, i just fixed it
[07:17] <gouchi> is it related to xorg security fix ?
[07:17] <h3xis> ircusr, it's a website of instructions on how to get it to work.
[07:17] <h3xis> ircusr, i cant and wont read it to you
[07:17] <h3xis> ircusr, if youre having problems with your browser you should get that fixed first
[07:18] <Pobega> mnk0: Did you edit it in /etc/fstab? I'm not 100% sure if this is nessecary, but I wouldn't doubt it.
[07:18] <ircusr> ok
[07:18] <Pobega> mnk0: Actually, it is nessecary.
[07:18] <ircusr> but it can be done then
[07:18] <mnk0> Pobega: well i will edit in etc/fstab, once i can mount it
[07:18] <oknewbie> anyone here good with vpn setups?
[07:18] <pollywog> I thought we could not call ppl idiots here
[07:18] <mnk0> Pobega:  then i will know that it mounts first,
[07:18] <Pobega> mnk0: Well paste your /etc/fstab to http://www.rafb.net/paste/ if you can.
[07:18] <gouchi> any idea ?
[07:19] <whileimhere> Okay another question. When a software package gets installed it sometimes has other packages that it NEEDS to work. When you go to uninstall a package is there anyway to also auto uninstall those packages as well?
[07:19] <h3xis> ircusr, i dont know, probably
[07:19] <h3xis> ircusr, according to that site it can
[07:19] <Pobega> whileimhere: Use aptitude instead of apt-get
[07:19] <oknewbie> whileimhere use aptitude purge packagename
[07:19] <mnk0> Pobega: http://rafb.net/p/dvz2Cb30.html
[07:19] <gouchi> it seems it was related to /tmp right
[07:19] <Oncer> If my ndiswrapper version doesn't match up with the kernel, can I still connect to the net?
[07:19] <sgorf> whileimhere: Also, look into deborphan
[07:20] <gouchi>  chmod 1777 /tmp  makes it work
[07:20] <mnoir> whileimhere: no - there is a package called gtkorphan that can help though
[07:20] <mnk0> Pobega: the last 2 lines i added, and they error with same thing
[07:20] <Crescendo_> Why is sound bad quality when PCM volume is all the way up?  I have to turn it most of the way down to get good loud sound from my speakers.
[07:20] <pollywog> I have a small problem with my wifi card being enabled when I boot, even though I have not set it up to do that, is there a way to fix that?
[07:20] <whileimhere> mnoir: Really?
[07:20] <Tonren> Anyone familiar with rsync?
[07:20] <mnk0> Tonren: what about it?
[07:21] <mnk0> Tonren: ssh hostkeys?
[07:21] <Tonren> I'm trying to synchronize my home directory with a backup on a 60GB external USB 2.0 pocket hard drive with rsync, but when I use the --progress option, I can see that it's re-transferring files that were already backed up last time.  What's going on?
[07:21] <Pobega> mnk0: Hmm...It's just giving you a filesystem error?
[07:21] <h3xis> pollywog, deactivate it in Networking and it shouldn't be activated on boot
[07:21] <mnoir> whileimhere: i am not sure how to respond.  I didn'tmake it up...
[07:21] <mnk0> Pobega: wrong FS Type
[07:21] <Tonren> This is my command: rsync -avz --progress --exclude="music" --exclude="iso" --exclude=".*" /home/mcantor/* /media/WD\ Passport/mcantor
[07:21] <mnk0> Tonren: try --recursive
[07:21] <whileimhere> mnoir lol
[07:21] <Tonren> mnk0: -a includes --recursive
[07:22] <Pobega> mnk0: It sounds like something's up. What's on this drive, if you don't mind me asking?
[07:22] <mnk0> oh
[07:22] <pollywog> h3xis: I have 3 profiles and it is active in only one, or should be, but doesn't seem to work
[07:22] <machok> I'm using Ubuntu AMD64. My integrated NVidia 6100 is not recognised. When I go to "applications", it sais for the NVidia legacy driver - "In this version you cannot instal this driver". So, will it help if I install the i386 version - will it recognise my VC?
[07:22] <Tonren> mnk0: Also it's not *failing* to send files that's the problem, it's sending files that are already there.
[07:22] <sgorf> Tonren: What does 'speedup' say?
[07:22] <mnk0> Pobega: just data, it's got mp3's movies, and shit like that
[07:22] <pollywog> I guess I will disable it in all 3
[07:22] <Tonren> machok: I'm running 32bit ubuntu on my AMD64 and it runs fine
[07:22] <pollywog> thanks
[07:22] <whileimhere> In synaptic whats the difference between "Mark for Removal" or "Mark for Complete Removal"?
[07:22] <Tonren> sgorf: Command not found.
[07:22] <mnk0> Tonren: what about just update?
[07:22] <TruthElixirX> I need some help/advice on how to get Ubuntu running on my system. Everytime after I finish installing it, I reboot, and when it comes back on it says "Please insert boot media or restart." and it won't detect that Ubuntu has been installed on it. Its like the boot order is wrong or something? I'm not sure.
[07:23] <pollywog> whileimhere: the latter removes the config files too I think
[07:23] <Pobega> mnk0: Is it mountable through a LiveCD?
[07:23] <Tonren> mnk0: Command not found.
[07:23] <sgorf> Tonren: Sorry, it appears at the end of the rsync report.
[07:23] <Tonren> sgorf: Oooh.
[07:23] <mnk0> Pobega: yeah it was
[07:23] <machok> Tonren OK, so I should switch to i386 version?
[07:23] <Tonren> machok: Definitely.  Flash will work better, too, among other things
[07:23] <mnk0> Tonren: rynch --update
[07:23] <whileimhere> Pollywog why did you ask about mango?
[07:23] <Pobega> mnk0: Is it still? I mean, is it just not mounting from your Xubuntu install?
[07:23] <machok> Tonren OK, 10x
[07:23] <mnk0>  -u, --update                skip files that are newer on the receiver
[07:23] <machok> I hope they will fix the AMD64 version soon :)
[07:23] <pollywog> whileimhere: because she often jokes about KDE being better than Gnome
[07:23] <Tonren> mnk0: They won't be newer, though - they'll have the same times.
[07:24] <pollywog> if she is a she
[07:24] <Tonren> sgorf: I haven't seen the end of the report yet, because I haven't let it finish.  It would take days to completely retransfer every single file.
[07:24] <whileimhere> Pollywog: Oh I see. I didnt like the magazine because it was one sided. I am interested in using the best app for the job not for a system really
[07:24] <mnk0> Pobega: hdb will mount from the liveCD
[07:24] <mnk0> hdc is swaped with the cdrom
[07:24] <parktownprawn> Tonren: are you sure the files haven't changed
[07:24] <Pobega> mnk0: How about hdc?
[07:24] <Tonren> parktownprawn: Absolutely, positively, completely, utterly sure.
[07:24] <mnk0> like thats what i have to unplug to use the cdrom
[07:25] <Tonren> mnk0: I think --update might have done the trick
[07:25] <pollywog> whileimhere: I was quite irritated by it the first time I read it, because it is one-sided
[07:25] <mnk0> Tonren: gj
[07:25] <mnk0> ls
[07:25] <pollywog> whileimhere: but it is funny
[07:25] <parktownprawn> Tonren: hmmm - it seems strange - no idea
[07:25] <whileimhere> pollywog: Honestly I only read it because my cats name is Mango!
[07:25] <Pobega> mnk0: I had a very similar problem recently, but with the Gentoo 2006.0 LiveCD. I wasn't able to solve it, it wasn't recognizing anything on my HDD. I'd post this problem at http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=135, and hope that someone with a bit more knowledge than me can help you solve your problem.
[07:25] <Tonren> parktownprawn: Yeah, it seems like it shouldn't need to have -u to make it ignore the already sent files, but wahtever...
[07:26] <pollywog> whileimhere: oic
[07:26] <mnk0> Pobega: /dev/hdc1               1       30401   244196001   83  Linux
[07:26] <oknewbie> anyone know how to vpn into ms network over broadband not dialup like all the howtos show
[07:26] <afflux> hi. i wantet to test the herd 6 release (please don't say anything, i know that it is alpha) and didn't want to install a new system but wanted to upgrade my existing ("no matter if it breaks..."). apt-get now says: "Internal Error, Could not perform immediate configuration (2) on python-minimal". any ideas on how to fix this?
[07:26] <mnk0> when i fdisk /dev/hdc
[07:26] <mnk0> it recognizes the drive
[07:27] <Pobega> mnk0: Hmm...So try mounting /dev/hdc1 instead of /dev/hdc?
[07:27] <mnk0> oh
[07:27] <mnk0> LOLLLL
[07:27] <mnk0> LOOOALLALLALAL
[07:27] <mnk0> thats it
[07:27] <mnk0> =/
[07:27] <Pobega> mnk0: Tell me if it works, haha.
[07:27] <mnoir> afflux: you might want to ask in #ubuntu+1 which is the correct channel for feisty
[07:27] <mnk0> no
[07:27] <curs0r> yeah... totally fine now, it was a permissions issue for some bizarre reason
[07:27] <Pobega> mnk0: Not working?
[07:27] <mnk0> i already know that , that was it
[07:27] <whileimhere> pollywog: of course now understand that my cat is a giant orange cat that is bigger than my dog.
[07:27] <mnk0> i'll put down $1k
[07:27] <Pobega> mnk0: Oh, haha. Man, I can't believe it was something so simple.
[07:27] <afflux> mnoir: k, thanks. haven't seen this.
[07:27] <curs0r> i fail to see how that would have given me half-operation as opposed to none but whatever
[07:28] <mnk0> HAHAH yeah man
[07:28] <mnk0> it worked
[07:28] <Pobega> mnk0: :D Congrats
[07:28] <mnoir> afflux: np - it isn't as well known as it should be :)
[07:28] <Oncer> I'm having trouble with ndiswrapper.
[07:28] <mnk0> Pobega: thankx mate, man, that was hilarous
[07:28] <parktownprawn> Tonren: perhaps you can test things by trying to back up a small directory with a few files which won't take too much time
[07:28] <mnk0> i can't belive i didnt think that
[07:28] <Pobega> mnk0: Yeah I know, that was great. Might want to update your fstab too? :P
[07:28] <Oncer> I have it set up and it says that it recognizes the driver and hardware.
[07:28] <mnk0> yeye ;)
[07:28] <Tonren> parktownprawn: Good idea.
[07:29] <Pobega> Okay well, I'm logging off. Bye everyone!
[07:29] <Oncer> But it has erros detecing my connection.
[07:29] <Oncer> errors*
[07:29] <Tonren> parktownprawn: Do you know of a way to compare two directory trees, to see if they're equal?
[07:29] <pollywog> Oncer: are you using a rt2500 card?
[07:29] <toty> hi, when the system is busy i should get the "busy/working in back ground" mouse curso instead the cursor disappers until the default pointer cursor returns... do i need to reinstall the cursors? how do i do that?
[07:29] <Oncer> Yes, how do you know?
[07:29] <mnoir> Tonren: diff
[07:29] <pollywog> oh good I can probably help
[07:29] <Tonren> mnoir: I didn't know that worked on directory trees
[07:30] <pollywog> Oncer: all you need to do is modify /etc/network/interfaces to get it working
[07:30] <curs0r> well i guess this is a good lesson, i wasn't watching for that kind of thing. i will in the future
[07:30] <mnoir> Tonren: there are a lot of options to make the output valuable as well - man diff for more
[07:30] <Oncer> Okay.
[07:30] <Tonren> mnoir: Examining it now
[07:30] <mnoir> Tonren: there are also gui versions
[07:30] <daniel1988_> hi folks! how to set up keybord shortcut for changing keyboard layouts in gnome? Thanks... anyone?
[07:30] <pollywog> I went through all sorts of howtos until I found that out last night
[07:30] <Tonren> mnoir: Oooh.  Any packages you nkow of?
[07:30] <Goldline> i need help
[07:30] <parktownprawn> Tonren: well just make a test directory foo/foo with some files foo1 foo2 etc  - shouldn't be hard to check by eye to get a handle on what rsync is doing
[07:30] <turbolover> hey has anyone had problems with firefox beign incredibly sluggish?
[07:30] <curs0r> Goldline, a little more to go on would help
[07:30] <TruthElixirX> Whenever I follow the instructions from here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[07:30] <TruthElixirX> I get this:
[07:30] <TruthElixirX> grub> setup (hd0,3)
[07:30] <TruthElixirX>  Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... yes
[07:30] <TruthElixirX>  Checking if "/boot/grub/stage2" exists... yes
[07:30] <Oncer> Pollywog:  It detects everything, but not networks and it doesn't pass modprobes
[07:30] <TruthElixirX>  Checking if "/boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5" exists... yes
[07:30] <pollywog> Oncer let me hop to my other machine and get you a url
[07:30] <Goldline> can nayone here try ocnnecting to my irc server, i asked many times but everyone is refusing
[07:31] <TruthElixirX>  Running "embed /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 (hd0,3)"... failed (this is not fatal)

[07:31] <Gizmo_the_Great1> how do you update an installed package with command line? Is it 'apt-get update packagename'?
[07:31] <curs0r> TruthElixirX, use a pastebin geez
[07:31] <TruthElixirX> pastebin?
[07:31] <Tonren> Gizmo_the_Great1: It should automatically update installed packages.
[07:31] <mnoir> Tonren: looking - i would use synaptic and search for diff - they all have diff in the name like kdiff, gdiff and so on
[07:31] <pollywog> Oncer: I had exactly the same problem but does lsmod show rt2500 loads?
[07:31] <n2diy> ! pastebin | TruthElixirX
[07:31] <ubotu> TruthElixirX: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:31] <Oncer> One sec.
[07:31] <Goldline> cursor could you try to connect to my irc server, i just need to know if it works, thats all i sweaer
[07:31] <Tonren> mnoir: Cool
[07:31] <TruthElixirX> oh
[07:31] <curs0r> yeah sure
[07:31] <Gizmo_the_Great1> Tonren: Its aMSN - every time I start it it tells me about a new version, but its the app telling me, not the OS
[07:32] <Tonren> Gizmo_the_Great1: Probably, the new version hasn't hit the repositories yet.
[07:32] <Gizmo_the_Great1> Tonren: OK thanks
[07:32] <whileimhere> Whats a good alternative to kdes Kate?
[07:32] <Goldline> cursor, i dont see you in the list, so i cant pm you, do you see me in the list, could you pm me
[07:33] <curs0r> whileimhere, lol what is kate?
[07:33] <Tonren> mnoir: "apt-cache search diff" yields over 1000 results... XD
[07:33] <Wassili> hello
[07:33] <whileimhere> A great text editor
[07:33] <Tonren> mnoir: Time to pipe it into less
[07:33] <curs0r> whileimhere, and you need one for what DE?
[07:33] <Oncer> PollyWog: rt2750 shows up
[07:33] <naknomik> I want to compile and install some packages, when I run ./configure it complains there's no c compiler installed. Is there a metapackage that installs devlopment tools?
[07:33] <mnoir> Tonren: that is the unix way.  btw, most is better than less for some things
[07:33] <Oncer> A few other rt things too.
[07:33] <Oncer> So I would think so.
[07:34] <pollywog> Oncer: good, let me post you a URL it shows what you need to do
[07:34] <parktownprawn> whileimhere: depends what you want - something like abiword maybe?
[07:34] <Tonren> mnoir: Wait... there's more, less AND most?  WTF is most?
[07:34] <Oncer> Thanks a bunch.
[07:34] <mnoir> Tonren: cmmdline, colordiff is good too
[07:34] <toty> "busy" mouse cursor is blank, how do i get back the ubuntu "hourglass" type cursor back?
[07:34] <mr_> Hi! I've got some trouble getting my PCMCIA card to work on an IBM Thinkpad 600X. Can anyone help me, please?
[07:34] <parktownprawn> Tonren: dirdiff
[07:34] <mnoir> Tonren: ok, i am only going to say this once.  less is more and most is the most bestest one
[07:35] <Tonren> mnoir: Hardcore.
[07:35] <TruthElixirX> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1584/
[07:35] <parktownprawn> Tonren: apt-cache search diff | grep directory
[07:35] <Tonren> parktownprawn: Good call.
[07:35] <mnk0> man i feel like a noob after that ordeal
[07:35] <mnk0> hahaha

[07:35] <mnoir> Tonren: :)
[07:35] <pollywog_> Oncer: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-78250.html
[07:35] <sgorf> Tonren: If you're still looking, I understand that star will do a binary directory tree comparision. I've never managed to find it though
[07:35] <Oncer> pollywog_: Thanks.
[07:35] <mnoir> Tonren: there is also a triple input diff
[07:36] <pollywog_> do what it says there and you will have WPA
[07:36] <sgorf> Tonren: Oh that's interesting, it's actually available. Hmm
[07:36] <Tonren> sgorf: What's actually available?
[07:36] <riotkittie> whats so great about most?
[07:36] <mr_> Hi! I've got some trouble getting my PCMCIA card to work on an IBM Thinkpad 600X. Can anyone help me, please?
[07:36] <Tonren> sgorf: Oh, oh.  "star".
[07:36] <toty> anyone have a clue?
[07:36] <Tonren> sgorf: Oh.  /ESS/-tar.  Not /STAR/.  Freaking GNU names
[07:37] <mobile> how do i get something added to my PATH variable when i log into GDM?
[07:37] <sgorf> Tonren: Hold on - what are you looking for? Binary directory comparision? That's it, right?
[07:37] <naknomik> Is thare an metapackage using which I can pull in all the necessary tools for compiling C programs?
[07:37] <mr_> Hi! I've got some trouble getting my PCMCIA card (LAN, not W-LAN) to work on an IBM Thinkpad 600X. Can anyone help me, please?

[07:37] <mnoir> naknomik: build-essential
[07:37] <TruthElixirX> Would the Super Grub disk work for me, perhaps?
[07:37] <riotkittie> toty: try mouse settings under ... the system menu?  either in pref or admin. probably preferences
[07:37] <curs0r> whileimhere, in gnome, probably not
[07:37] <faintofhearts> Hello everyone.
[07:38] <Goldline> cursor, i dont know why you dont reply., but did you get any of my pms ?
[07:38] <Tonren> sgorf: I want to backup my home directory to a pocket HD
[07:38] <faintofhearts> For some reason my direct rendering won't become enabled.
[07:38] <curs0r> Goldline, not a one
[07:38] <Goldline> oh i said: can u get onto my server
[07:38] <sgorf> Tonren: I think rsync is what you want for that! I'm not sure why it isn't working for you but that's what I'd look at
[07:38] <Goldline> therefore i pmed the ip
[07:38] <Goldline> you received the ip
[07:38] <Tonren> sgorf: Yeah, I'm running some small tests
[07:38] <curs0r> Goldline, you may be spelling my name wrong that's a 0 not an o
[07:38] <Tonren> sgorf: I still haven't figured it out though.  For some reason, if I run it without the -u option, it retransfers files that i've already transferred
[07:39] <faintofhearts> Does anyone think they would be able to help me with a direct rendering problem?
[07:39] <riotkittie> nick completion is your friend
[07:39] <Crescendo_> Why is sound bad quality when PCM volume is all the way up?  I have to turn it most of the way down to get good loud sound from my speakers.
[07:39] <Tonren> sgorf: And even though I ran it with -r, it DIDN'T transfer some directories that had changes
[07:39] <sgorf> Tonren: Only thing I'd suspect is filesystem type and matching dates and things. FAT stores to the nearest 2 seconds for example I think. I'd make it ext2.
[07:39] <Oncer> pollywog_: So exactly what do I do?
[07:39] <Goldline> cursor can u set up a private room so i can give you the ip there, i dont wanna give it to everyone
[07:39] <faintofhearts> The problem being that I can't get it enabled.
[07:39] <Oncer> Sorry I'm a newb.
[07:39] <mobile> when i run gnome-terminal from a gnome session, my PATH variable doesn't contain ~/bin, so my personal scripts aren't found.  it works when i log in without X running.  how do i fix this?
[07:39] <Mirro> i got problem with WLAN on my notebook, too few networks are shown, what can i do?
[07:39] <houston> whats the mouse theme app called???  i forget and I want to install it
[07:39] <Tonren> sgorf: I mean, i'ts retransferring stuff that's been there for months
[07:39] <toty> riotkittie:  tried setting to another cursor set but still no dice :(
[07:39] <curs0r> Goldline, i sent you a pm, look in the list on the left for my name
[07:39] <tim167> cant get online with ubuntu desktop machine help please ?
[07:39] <Oncer> Never mind.
[07:39] <pollywog_> Oncer: did you find the part in that URL that says to add about 6 lines to your interfaces file?
[07:39] <PORDO> does edgy use xkb or xmodmap?
[07:40] <sgorf> Tonren: By default rsync checks location and mtime only I think. Could you check manually that the mtimes match on something it's trying to transfer? Use stat
[07:40] <Goldline> your name isn ot there i only see: ubuntu server andu nder that room # ubuntu
[07:40] <riotkittie> toty: :(   i have no idea. sorry.
[07:40] <sgorf> Tonren: Oh and size too
[07:40] <curs0r> Goldline, ok, i'll send you another
[07:40] <Oncer> No.
[07:40] <toty> riotkittie: np, thanks for the go ;)
[07:40] <Goldline> yes i see your name now
[07:40] <Tonren> sgorf: Sure.
[07:40] <curs0r> Goldline, there, did you get that?
[07:41] <ziska> hello all
[07:41] <pollywog_> Oncer: it's almost halfway down that page
[07:41] <faintofhearts> Direct rendering doesn't work, and I can't figure out why. Does anyone think they could help me fix this and get rendering working?
[07:41] <curs0r> Goldline, now click on my name on the left and type
[07:41] <Tonren> sgorf: Also, watching rsync with --progress -v , I see that it PAUSES once every few seconds
[07:41] <Tonren> sgorf: It just...stops, then starts again after about 5 - 10 seconds
[07:41] <sgorf> Tonren: That'll be the USB being slow
[07:41] <sgorf> Tonren: Are you using USB2?
[07:41] <sgorf> Tonren: lsmod|grep ehci
[07:41] <Tonren> sgorf: Lame.  It's a USB2 device on a USB2 port
[07:41] <mr_> Hi! I've got some trouble getting my PCMCIA card (LAN, not W-LAN) to work on an IBM Thinkpad 600X. Can anyone help me, please?
[07:41] <ziska> can someone tell me how i can repartition the ntfs drive on my dual boot, i tried gparted, qtparted, tried both of those from live cd, and even tried partition magic in windows
[07:41] <Goldline> yea ?
[07:41] <pollywog_> Oncer: starts with a line like this: iface ra0 inet dhcp
[07:42] <Tonren> sgorf: usbcore               130304  5 usb_storage,libusual,ehci_hcd,ohci_hcd
[07:42] <tim167> can anyone help me get online with ubuntu ? I checked network settings, is DHCP, but doesnt work
[07:42] <Tonren> ehci_hcd               32520  0
[07:42] <parktownprawn> Tonren: sgorf might be onto something FAT could be  confusing rsync
[07:42] <Tonren> parktownprawn: That sounds likely.
[07:42] <pollywog_> just add all that stuff to /etc/networ/interfaces and put in your own SSID and passphrase
[07:42] <Oncer> Okay thanks.
[07:42] <pollywog_> and configure your router for either MIXED or B
[07:42] <mobile> how do i get something added to my PATH variable when i log into GDM?
[07:43] <sgorf> Tonren: You should be on high speed then. You can dig through /proc/bus/usb/devices (IIRC) but it's a pain to wade through it. Even when using USB2 it still does hang for a moment while Linux flushes stuff. End result is that it still runs close to top speed.
[07:43] <tim167> help please: no internet acces, checked all reasonable network settings, no idea what's wrong
[07:43] <Goldline> cursor II join room #goldline, plz join so i can give you the ip thats faster i think
[07:43] <Tonren> sgorf: Usually it transfers at 3-4MB/s
[07:43] <faintofhearts> I am having much difficulty enabling direct rendering. Anyone think they could help me out?
[07:43] <Tonren> sgorf: It dropped to 800KB/s during a large file transfer, though
[07:43] <pollywog_> Oncer: also install RaConfig
[07:43] <sgorf> Tonren: Check the stat thing though. I've never had the issue but FAT does store only to nearest two seconds I think.
[07:43] <ziska> help please, cant resize ntfs partition on dual boot
[07:43] <Tonren> sgorf: I'm running dirdiff on the two trees
[07:43] <pollywog_> because the utils in Ubuntu do not do WPA
[07:44] <Oncer> Okay thanks.
[07:44] <pollywog_> it was easy even for me
[07:44] <Tonren> curs0r: Sup, dude?
[07:44] <wick2o> pollywog_: there is a tool you can apt-get that does wpa
[07:44] <mnoir> mobile: PATH is a list of directories.  what do you want to add and why not add it permanently in the .bashrc ?
[07:44] <ziska> called network manager
[07:44] <ziska> network manager does wpa
[07:44] <wick2o> i forget what it is, but i found it in ubuntu unleashed and dont have my book handy
[07:44] <curs0r> Tonren, hi, have we spoken before?
[07:45] <faintofhearts> I am in great need of help in order to enable direct rendering.
[07:45] <Tonren> curs0r: No, but if I can help you with your IRC woes, I'd like to.
[07:45] <otacon22__> Next sathurday I have a hackmeeting and some people had asked me if will be possibile to make an apt server bacause we don't have internet, I can do it, but I don't know howto do
[07:45] <otacon22__> anyone know?
[07:45] <riotkittie> wick2o: network-manager-gnome?
[07:45] <tom_biggy> hello folks!
[07:45] <Polygon89> Hello, i need help troubleshooting "sound-juicer", whenever i launch it , it just disappears. If i launch it from the terminal, it doesn't do anything. If i specifiy run in terminal it just crashes on the spot. Ive tried reinstalling through synaptic but it still is a problem. Suggestions?
[07:45] <HymnToLife> !hi | tom_biggy
[07:45] <ubotu> tom_biggy: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[07:45] <wick2o> riotkittie: that sounds like it
[07:45] <Oncer> What router do you have?
[07:45] <wick2o> but like i said, i dont really remember
[07:46] <jon__> sony hd5 on linux anyone?
[07:46] <tim167> i rebooted, restarted modem, waited for 2 hours, checked networking settings, all is normal, still no network, help please
[07:46] <Oncer> And what wireless device did you use pollwog_
[07:46] <faintofhearts> Looking for help for enabling direct rendering.
[07:46] <curs0r> Tonren, i wasn't referring to me haha i been using irc since 95
[07:46] <sgorf> otacon22__: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/repository-howto/repository-howto.en.html and apt-proxy may help you too
[07:46] <HymnToLife> !anyone | jon__
[07:46] <ubotu> jon__: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:46] <riotkittie> yah thats it. i am also reading unleashed. along with the oreilly ubuntu book.
[07:46] <Tonren> curs0r: Ahh, ok.  Sorry.
[07:46] <hairulfr> Hey all, anyone know a mirror to easyubuntu? (freecontrib.org is down)
[07:46] <mnoir> otacon22__: if  you google for 'local apt server' many links come up  http://lists.slug.org.au/archives/slug/2005/09/msg00430.html for example - shows some promise
[07:47] <otacon22__> tnx
[07:47] <mobile> mnoir: i don't think .bashrc is read when i run a command by, eg, pressing Alt-F2 and entering a command there
[07:47] <Oncer> pollywog_ what router do you have, and what wireless device?
[07:47] <mobile> mnoir: but i will try it again to be sure
[07:47] <faintofhearts> I can't use OpenGL because direct rendering it's enabled. Can someone help me enable it?
[07:47] <mnoir> mobile: you may be right.
[07:47] <faintofhearts> isn't*
[07:47] <pollywog_> I am using a Linksys WRT540GS
[07:48] <tom_biggy> can someoune help me? i can't mount removable devices after upgrading to kde 3.5.5
[07:48] <mnoir> mob - but one of the profile type files is...
[07:48] <Oncer> Okay.
[07:48] <Polygon89> faintofhearts: do you have your video card drivers installed/working?
[07:48] <tom_biggy> there MUST be a solution...
[07:48] <pollywog_> with not the original firmware but DD-WRT
[07:48] <faintofhearts> Polygon89: Yes, I do, but I still can't get direct rendering to enable.
[07:48] <pollywog_> my laptop has a ralink rt2500
[07:48] <Tonren> sgorf: The files on the WD Passport (external HD) are all newer
[07:48] <parktownprawn> otacon22_: http://www.howtoforge.com/local_debian_ubuntu_mirror
[07:48] <Crescendo_> Why is sound bad quality when PCM volume is all the way up?  I have to turn it most of the way down to get good loud sound from my speakers.
[07:48] <tom_biggy> ohhh fuck ubuntu....
[07:49] <pollywog_> it worked out of the box in Linspire but took some work in Ubuntu
[07:49] <Tonren> sgorf: FAT32 is storing the time of change instead of rsync -a's request to store the original date
[07:49] <Oncer> pollywog_:  I see where the key goes in the config file, but not the passcode.
[07:49] <Polygon89> faintofhearts: you use ati or nvidia?
[07:49] <PriceChild> !language | tom_biggy
[07:49] <ubotu> tom_biggy: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:49] <curs0r> Crescendo, are you running a pre-amp or eq app?
[07:49] <jrib> mobile: use ~/.xprofile or ~/.gnomerc
[07:49] <tom_biggy> arrrgh
[07:49] <faintofhearts> Polygon89: Neither :P I have a very old intel chipset.
[07:49] <pollywog_> Oncer: just a sec
[07:49] <Crescendo_> curs0r, nope
[07:49] <sgorf> Tonren: I guess that's it then :)
[07:49] <faintofhearts> But it should be able to handle direct rendering easily.
[07:49] <Oncer> pollywog_ sure.
[07:49] <riotkittie> tom_biggy:  are you getting some kind of error message when you try to mount?
[07:49] <sgorf> Tonren: If you don't need another OS reading the disk I'd format it ext2
[07:50] <Polygon89> faintofhearts: so do you even have a video card or is it just intregrated on the motherboard?
[07:50] <tom_biggy> no i don't get any errors
[07:50] <tom_biggy> but
[07:50] <Tonren> sgorf: Aye.
[07:50] <tom_biggy> before upgrading an icon appeared on desktop
[07:50] <sgorf> Tonren: Or you could store the files differently like inside a tar or zip or something then use zip's only-update stuff
[07:50] <tom_biggy> but it doesn't appear now
[07:50] <pollywog_> pre-up iwpriv ra0 set WPAPSK="passphrase"
[07:50] <tom_biggy> :(
[07:50] <Shaba1> Hello folks
[07:50] <faintofhearts> Pollygon89: Intregrated I suppose.
[07:50] <Tonren> sgorf: The idea of a 20 GB zip/tar file literally terrifies me.
[07:50] <peace-keeper> then use rar
[07:50] <peace-keeper> :D
[07:50] <sgorf> Tonren: I deal with ~60G afio files :)
[07:50] <Oncer> Thanks pollywog_
[07:51] <pollywog_> yw
[07:51] <Tonren> sgorf: afio?
[07:51] <Shaba1> anybody here a windows user and ever use partition logic to get back and ubutu partition?
[07:51] <tom_biggy> do it doesn't mount it automaticly...
[07:51] <faintofhearts> However, when I was running on windows it saw better performance.
[07:51] <riotkittie> tom_biggy: have you checked your fstab? i dont see why that would have changed... but
[07:51] <sgorf> Tonren: Just a different format like tar cpio etc. It deals with large files and lots of inodes and devices nodes and everything properly
[07:51] <mnoir> Tonren: tar has been around forever - it actually means Tape ARchive :)
[07:51] <Tonren> mnoir: I knew that one, actually
[07:51] <Polygon89> faintofhearts: did you reconfigure xorg and all of that?
[07:51] <tom_biggy> just wait a minute :
[07:51] <tom_biggy> :)
[07:51] <Tonren> sgorf: Sweet.
[07:52] <Oncer> pollywog_ it isn't in the file.
[07:52] <Oncer> One second.
[07:52] <faintofhearts> Polygon89: Yes, and nothing.
[07:52] <faintofhearts> I have done it twice already >.<
[07:52] <whileimhere> Is there anyway to speed up gnome with any tweaks?
[07:52] <tom_biggy> /dev/hdc        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
[07:52] <tom_biggy> here's my cd rom string
[07:52] <pollywog_> Oncer: do you mean in your /etc/network/interfaces?
[07:52] <riotkittie> Shaba1: get back a ubuntu partition ?
[07:52] <mobile> jrib: thanks, i'll try that
[07:52] <pollywog_> or the file as shown in the url?
[07:52] <Polygon89> faintofhearts, what is the name of the intel chipset/integrated video card
[07:53] <faintofhearts> Hold on, I'll get it.
[07:53] <toty> "busy" mouse cursor is blank, how do i get back the ubuntu "hourglass" type cursor back? tried setting to another cursor set in prefs but that didn't work, any other ideas?
[07:53] <riotkittie> tom_biggy: ok that looks normal. i am clueless. sorry.
[07:53] <pollywog_> Oncer: that line is in the file I actually use
[07:53] <faintofhearts> Polygon89:  VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82815 CGC [Chipset Graphics Controller]
[07:53] <Oncer> Oh.
[07:53] <tom_biggy> :(:(:(:(:(
[07:54] <Oncer> It itn'st in mine.
[07:54] <tom_biggy> someone said the problem is with HAL!
[07:54] <tom_biggy> i have to upgrade my hal
[07:54] <tom_biggy> but how?
[07:54] <tom_biggy> they said with the kde 3.5.4 repository
[07:54] <Oncer> Yes in that file polywog_, I don't know what's wrong.
[07:54] <tom_biggy> but i added it :(:(:(:(:(:((:(
[07:54] <pollywog_> Oncer: you have to add all those lines, they are not in your default interfaces file
[07:54] <tom_biggy> and nothing
[07:54] <tom_biggy> it says the newest version is installed
[07:55] <wwallace>  how the command would be if i want to install everything apt-cache search finds   like  apt-cache search xmame |   what?
[07:55] <Oncer> Okay.
[07:55] <whileimhere> Can Nautilus do FTP or will I need another prog for that?
[07:55] <riotkittie> tom_biggy: have you tried #kubuntu ? they may be more knowledgable about KDE and KDE problems there
[07:55] <sgorf> wwallace: apt-get install `apt-cache search xmame|awk '{print $1}'` but I haven't tested this!
[07:55] <jrib> whileimhere: it can do ftp, there is also gftp
[07:55] <pollywog_> Oncer: can I open a chat window to you?
[07:56] <tom_biggy> yes i tried
[07:56] <tom_biggy> :(
[07:56] <tom_biggy> but they took no notice :(:(:(:(:(
[07:56] <stepanstas> hey guys
[07:56] <Oncer> Sure.
[07:56] <riotkittie> #kde perhaps?
[07:56] <mr_> Hi! I've got some trouble getting my PCMCIA card (LAN, not W-LAN) to work on an IBM Thinkpad 600X. Can anyone help me, please?
[07:56] <tom_biggy> hmm
[07:56] <curs0r> huh, irssi is pretty nice...
[07:56] <mobile> jrib: mnoir: .xprofile worked for me.
[07:56] <Polygon89> faintofhearts: hold on, im looking at this site: http://www.intellinuxgraphics.org/index.html
[07:57] <Antler> hello, could someone help this newbie to install rar/unrar please?
[07:57] <riotkittie> pretty nice is an understatement. irssi rocks the casbah.
[07:57] <stefg> !rar | antler
[07:57] <ubotu> antler: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[07:57] <stefg> !unrar-nonfree
[07:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about unrar-nonfree - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:57] <pollywog_> Oncer: I am blocked
[07:57] <Polygon89> faintofhearts, it appears that your chipset isnt listed there. Where did you read instructions on how to install drivers for your chipset?
[07:57] <Oncer> Huh.
[07:58] <Oncer> It's probably because I'm not registered.
[07:58] <riotkittie> mr_: have you tried searching the forums? you may find help there. search with your laptop model, or specific card.
[07:58] <Oncer> I got it working though!
[07:58] <stefg> !info unrar-nonfree
[07:58] <ubotu> Package unrar-nonfree does not exist in any distro I know
[07:58] <mobile> should i have an environmental variable named _alias() that is many, many lines long, containing function definitions, etc?
[07:58] <Oncer> Thanks a ton for your help!!!!
[07:58] <pollywog_> oh that's it I need to change my nick
[07:58] <Kennell> Hello everyone - is this Channel for Support?
[07:58] <riotkittie> Kennell: uh huh.
[07:58] <roryy> stefg: looks like the packages are 'unrar' and 'unrar-free'
[07:59] <wwallace> sgorf, thanks ill post the results so you tell meif it worked?
[07:59] <faintofhearts> Polygon89: I had someone walk me through it. They had me install the i815 driver, or something along those lines.
[07:59] <stefg> roryy: yup!.... i hate it when packages cgange name in every friggin' release
[07:59] <faintofhearts> Perhaps it was i810.
[07:59] <Kennell> Cool, well i installed Ubuntu 6.1 now ... but Internetconnection isnt working (i amm now in WinXP Prof.)
[07:59] <whileimhere> Has anyone tried out Xara/ I am thinking about it since I hate how the GIMP has a million ssperate windows rather then just a single all encompasing window like photoshop
[08:00] <Skymarshal> We'd like to customize a Ubuntu CD with UCK. We need a fix IP address on the Ubuntu CD which we build with UCK. But it starts the DHCP client. Is there a clean way to disable the DHCP client and to preconfigure a fix IP address?
[08:00] <stefg> Kennell: aha!
[08:00] <ctkroeke1> Are the http://security.ubuntu.com edgy repos down? I just did a reinstall and I keep getting the following error :
[08:00] <ctkroeke1> Err http://security.ubuntu.com edgy-security/main linux-headers-2.6.17-10 <IP_ADDRESS>-10.34
[08:00] <ctkroeke1>   Bad header line
[08:00] <baxter_kylie> Hi. I'm having trouble starting my wireless support. Could anyone assist me? I have an atheros card.
[08:00] <ctkroeke1> oops
[08:00] <ctkroeke1> shoulda used pastebin
[08:01] <sancho> ftg
[08:01] <pollywog_> baxter_kylie: does that card use rt2500?
[08:01] <Kennell> I activated DHCP ... but Internetconnection is not working; i did not install Drivers for Lan (its onboard lan on a Asus P5B Deluxe Board)
[08:01] <n2diy> ! irssi
[08:01] <ubotu> irssi is a command line interface IRC client ( "sudo apt-get install irssi" without the quotes to try it out )
[08:01] <whta> my wine is broken! when i try to play cave story, i get a small black box in the upper left instead of my game window. sound and input works, but i can't see anything. anyone have any idea?
[08:01] <Kennell> do you HAVE to install network drivers?
[08:01] <mobile> can someone with edgy installed tell me if you have an env var named "_alias ()" that is very long, containing function definitions, etc in it?\
[08:01] <riotkittie> Kennell: i am basically useless when it comes to network issues. but throw some more info at us - are you on dialup? broadband? behind a router?
[08:01] <Amadeo> Trying to install the last World of Warcraft patch under wine...it's telling me "Waiting for files to close", but nothing happens after that
[08:01] <Polygon89> faintofhearts, hmm, ive seen this one two websites now,"The driver supports hardware accelerated 3D via the Direct Rendering Infrastruc-
[08:01] <Polygon89> ture (DRI), but only in depth 16 for the i810/i815 and depths 16 and 24
[08:01] <Polygon89> for later chipsets."
[08:01] <Kennell> its DSL; and yes, i am Behind a router
[08:02] <baxter_kylie> pollywog_: I have no idea. I don't think so. I'm just trying to get ath_pci modprobed but it can't find it and I don't see it in the repositories.
[08:02] <roryy> Kennell: for ethernet (i.e., standard wired LAN), typically there's no need to install a driver. It does depend on your hardware.
[08:02] <NeoGeo64> I got a problem.  When I try and use a higher fullscreen resolution on ZSNES, after the resolution sets the system freezes.  I have to reboot when it happens.
[08:02] <Kennell> Yeah its wired ... but im behind Router ...
[08:02] <curs0r> Kennell, ifconfig eth0
[08:02] <ablyss> mobile: not me
[08:02] <Li`lEndian> can anyone tell me a remote administration application for ubuntu that can connect to windows machines?
[08:03] <rohan> does the (k)ubuntu cd include 915resolution on the CD ?
[08:03] <faintofhearts> Polygon89: But direct rendering isn't enable. I SHOULD be able to enable it, but I can' figure out how.
[08:03] <Kennell> under windows?
[08:03] <pollywog_> baxter_kylie: I have just gotten my rt2500 to work and I know lots of ppl have trouble with them
[08:03] <ctkroeke1> Are the http://security.ubuntu.com edgy repos down? I just did a reinstall and I keep getting the following error : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1586/plain/
[08:03] <Tonren> sgorf: lol, I got an external hard drive so I could back up my laptop while I reformatted.  Now I'm gonna have to backup my external hard drive on my laptop while I reformat it.
[08:03] <curs0r> Kennell, under linux, this is ubuntu help not windows help
[08:03] <tim167> you know what ? I couldn't get network, because I powered off my desktop, but not entirely, and apparently the network card stays active (doesnt really reset) until you physically switch the pc off (with switch on the backside).
[08:03] <Tonren> Li`lEndian: How would you like to connect?
[08:03] <wwallace> sgorf, http://paste.debian.net/20066
[08:03] <Kennell> ... ok .. ill be back in a secound ... have to switch to ubuntu
[08:03] <wwallace> did it worked ok?
[08:03] <sgorf> Tonren: :)
[08:04] <NeoGeo64> Can anyone help me with my prob?
[08:04] <pollywog_> I have edgy and env does not show a long function like that
[08:04] <riotkittie> ahhh. people with only one pc scare me :P
[08:04] <sgorf> wwallace: Looks right to me
[08:04] <mnoir> !anyone  | NeoGeo64
[08:04] <ubotu> NeoGeo64: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[08:04] <sgorf> wwallace: Not sure that's what you wanted but you got what you asked for!
[08:04] <curs0r> how on earth was he going to configure his ubuntu nic settings under windows?
[08:04] <NeoGeo64> I got a problem.  When I try and use a higher fullscreen resolution on ZSNES, after the resolution sets the system freezes.  I have to reboot when it happens.
[08:04] <whta> my wine is broken! when i try to play cave story, i get a small black box in the upper left instead of my game window. sound and input works, but i can't see anything. anyone have any idea? i just tried reinstalling it to no avail.
[08:04] <roryy> ctkroeke1: security.ubuntu.com is up as far as i can tell (try browsing the URL with firefox, e.g.).  Do you possibly have a line 'http://security.ubuntu.com edgy-security/main linux-headers-2.6.17-10 <IP_ADDRESS>-10.34' in your /etc/apt/sources.list file ?
[08:04] <baxter_kylie> pollywog_: The wireless card isn't even in the system yet. I have to prep a hdd for physical installation on a machine with a kernel so that the machine will go up with an ssh server so that I can finish installation. That can't happen if the machine can't connect to the internet (wireless) so part of the prep is getting the wireless module set to start at boot.
[08:05] <mobile> ablyss: i have _ImageMagick() and _alias() env vars defined that contain function definitions'
[08:05] <wwallace> sgorf, thanks
[08:05] <parktownprawn> Li`lEndian: tsclient
[08:05] <Li`lEndian> Tonren, is there a graphical way to do it? i've heard some popular apps like vnc- have to look it up though
[08:05] <Tonren> whta: Gah!  Cave Story is a VITAL activity.  We have to get your Wine working.
[08:05] <Tonren> Li`lEndian: VNC could definitely work for you.
[08:05] <Tonren> whta: Have you tried noodling around in winecfg?
[08:06] <Li`lEndian> vnc, it is then :D
[08:06] <ctkroeke1> no, just "http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy-security main restricted universe multiverse" both deb and source
[08:06] <pollywog> mobile: have you tried Google Linux and searched for the card?
[08:06] <Tonren> Li`lEndian: You'll have to install a VNC Server on the Windows box, and use "vncviewer [ipaddress] " to connect to it
[08:06] <Tonren> Li`lEndian: I think a good free VNC server/client pair is called SmartVNC.  Also maybe TightVNC.
[08:06] <mobile> _alias() contains function names like _apt_get(), _apt_cache(), etc
[08:06] <Tonren> Li`lEndian: I'm not sure if Windows' default Remote Desktop feature is a plain old VNC server, but I doubt it.
[08:06] <roryy> ctkroeke1: hrm, that looks right. could you perhaps put your sources.list on the pastebin?
[08:07] <pollywog> oops that was not for mobile
[08:07] <stepanstas> i have a panasonic printer and i have its driver cd compatable with win and mac, how do i install it (i was able to launch the install window)
[08:07] <pollywog> baxter_kylie: have you tried Google Linux?
[08:07] <stefg> !info tsclient

[08:07] <eclipse__> org
[08:07] <Li`lEndian> ok, lemme search for it a bit then i mean the vnc server port for windows
[08:07] <wwallace> thanks forthe help good bye sgorf
[08:07] <richard501> where is microphone volume control?
[08:07] <ctkroeke1> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1589/plain/
[08:08] <Tonren> richard501: Double click on the speaker icon in your panel
[08:08] <pollywog> richard try kmix
[08:08] <pollywog> richard501:  try kmix
[08:08] <NeoGeo64> I got a problem.  When I try and use a higher fullscreen resolution on ZSNES, after the resolution sets the system freezes.  I have to reboot when it happens.
[08:08] <baxter_kylie> pollywog: All I need to do is start the wireless module ath_pci at boot which first means I need to install the module but I don't see it in the repos which means it's either rolled in the kernel or it's under a different name. I just need to know which.
[08:08] <richard501> thankyou .... Tonren thats great
[08:08] <Tonren> richard501: np
[08:08] <ctkroeke1> I'm on amd 64 athlon. I have ubuntu 64 bit installed
[08:09] <Tonren> ctkroeke1: I'm so sorry.  :(
[08:09] <pollywog> baxter_kylie: is this for Edgy?
[08:09] <stepanstas> is it possible to install a printer driver from a win and mac compatable cd
[08:09] <baxter_kylie> pollywog: Yes.
[08:09] <Antler> i cant find the unrar package, am i doing something wrong?
[08:09] <stefg> !printer | stepanstas
[08:09] <recu> i have bootloader problems between ubuntu and another linux on the same machine but another disk using lvm
[08:09] <Amadeo> Anyone happen to play WoW in wine?
[08:09] <ubotu> stepanstas: Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[08:09] <Kennell> Here i am again .. i just tried "ipconfig eth0" in Terminal ... its says Command not Found
[08:09] <pollywog> baxter_kylie: lib/modules/2.6.17-10-386/madwifi/ath_pci.ko
[08:09] <ctkroeke1> I've never had this happen before, until now with 64 bit ubuntu
[08:09] <pollywog> that is from my system
[08:10] <panos_bcn> hi guys xcuse me which is the channel for c++ programming?
[08:10] <Tonren> panos_bcn: I don't think there's a channel for that, really, because it isn't attached to a specific open source project.
[08:10] <Tonren> panos_bcn: Actually, it appears that there are 400 people in #c++
[08:11] <Tonren> Kennell: The Linux command is i*f*config, ifconfig, not ipconfig.
[08:11] <mnoir> Tonren: i was about to tell you that....
[08:11] <Tonren> Kennell: That got me for a while, too.
[08:11] <stepanstas> stefg:thanks, was looking for that
[08:11] <roryy> ctkroeke1: hrm, that looks OK. I have a last idea, which is to delete files from /var/lib/apt/lists, and force apt to re-download them
[08:11] <gma> panos_bcn: ##c++
[08:11] <panos_bcn> thanx
[08:11] <Kennell> oh dman :D - well ill be back in a min again ... switching to ubuntu ..
[08:11] <pollywog> baxter_kylie: so it would seem to be the madwifi Google 'madwifi ubuntu edgy'  I see there are problems with that one
[08:11] <roryy> ctkroeke1: you'd probably want to delete one of the security.ubuntu.com_* files
[08:11] <NeoGeo64> How do I get xchat to show the nick list?
[08:12] <riotkittie> NeoGeo64: are you using xchat or xchat-gnome?
[08:12] <gma> NeoGeo64: is it the xchat-gnome version? if so, Ctrl-U
[08:12] <NeoGeo64> whatever synaptic has
[08:12] <gma> NeoGeo64: it has both
[08:12] <gma> NeoGeo64: in different packages
[08:12] <NeoGeo64> xchat gnome
[08:12] <BenFP> is WINE what i need to run ms office on ubuntu?
[08:12] <roryy> ctkroeke1: if you do an ls -l /var/lib/apt/lists, it should be obvious how the files are named; main_binary is probably where linux-headers (the package giving the error) lives.
[08:13] <baxter_kylie> pollywog: I'm running a server kernel. What you're showing is a kernel module. I'm going to place a bet and guess that wifi has been removed from server kernels. I'll try a desktop kernel.
[08:13] <pollywog> baxter_kylie: see also http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/Distro/Ubuntu
[08:13] <mnoir> BenFP: if it behaves itself - have you been to the wine site to check?
[08:13] <BenFP> no i'm on the add/remove window in ubuntu
[08:14] <NeoGeo64> I'm using xchat gnome
[08:14] <NeoGeo64> and i cant see the nick list
[08:14] <BenFP> it sais it can support some ms programes... so i thought that is what i need to run ms office
[08:14] <stefg> baxter_kylie: haven't followed your conversation, but you read !wifi already, didn't you?

[08:15] <baxter_kylie> stefg: Yes. I'm installing a basic system (just a server installation + ssh) onto a hdd that will be mailed to my mother and put into her system since her hdd died. I'll finish installation over ssh but first I need wifi working else I won't be able to ssh in. Right now I can't get ath_pci modprobed
[08:15] <NeoGeo64> gma: I'm sorry, no I didn't.
[08:16] <NeoGeo64> gma:  Thank you.
[08:16] <gma> NeoGeo64: does it do anything?
[08:16] <Antler> is archive manager the same as unrar?

[08:16] <Stolencheese> Question: Gaim connects with ICQ, But when it connects on to MSN it shuts down after a few seconds. Completely goes away, No warning or anything, Any ideas?
[08:16] <stefg> baxter_kylie: alright, you're at it... good lick :-)
[08:16] <OrangeOrange> if i enable ubuntu for universal repostitry .. what will that do?
[08:16] <stefg> *luck
[08:17] <NeoGeo64> is there any way i can make the nick list stay on screen? i keep having to hit ctrl+u everytime i want to see it?
[08:17] <BenFP> so is gaim going to let use pit display pics up soon?? and does it support webcams?
[08:17] <mnoir> OrangeOrange: allow you  to d/l pkgs in universal
[08:17] <ctkroeke1> makes no diff
[08:17] <baxter_kylie> Antler: No. archive manager is a gui application to act as a frontend to things like unrar or p7z or tar
[08:17] <Stolencheese> BenFP: You can already use display pictures.
[08:17] <OrangeOrange> mnoir: i dl these packages via cmd line?
[08:17] <gma> NeoGeo64: I've seen a screenshot with the side bar split in half vertically; not sure which version it was or how to reproduce it though
[08:17] <gma> NeoGeo64: bottom half had nick list in
[08:17] <BenFP> really :P where do i set that up? i couldn't find it
[08:17] <Stolencheese> Question: Gaim connects with ICQ, But when it connects on to MSN it shuts down after a few seconds. Completely goes away, No warning or anything, Any ideas?
[08:18] <curs0r> Stolencheese, well rest assured it has nothing to do with msn being poorly designed haha
[08:18] <mnoir> OrangeOrange: you can, or use synaptic or one of the other nice gui front ends
[08:18] <NeoGeo64> what kind of irc client doesnt have a nick list onscreen? sheesh
[08:18] <Vigo> Stolencheeze: Have you tried the YIM?
[08:18] <riotkittie> NeoGeo64: xchat-gnome, for starters :P
[08:18] <mnoir> NeoGeo64: i hate having the nick list on screen
[08:18] <OrangeOrange> mnoir: thanks.. so synaptic packet manaager get a list online?
[08:18] <Tonren> Whooo!   For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[08:19] <riotkittie> NeoGeo64: try regular xchat
[08:19] <mnoir> OrangeOrange: it gives you the list and tools to choose and install
[08:19] <NeoGeo64> i will
[08:19] <Kennell> so .. here i am Again ..^^ the ifconfig eth0 didnt change anything ..
[08:19] <curs0r> NeoGeo64, dude, use classic xchat
[08:19] <NeoGeo64> i remember xchat being awesome
[08:19] <NeoGeo64> this is a gay version of xchat
[08:19] <riotkittie> or if you dont need the GUI, irssi is the way to go
[08:19] <mnoir> NeoGeo64: there are a zillion irc clients :)
[08:19] <Antler> Thanks baxter, i just installed unrar, but .rar archives are automaticly still open by archive manager.. how can i open rar archives with unrar?
[08:19] <gma> NeoGeo64: get the non gnome version then
[08:19] <curs0r> xchat is the pimp mirc wishes it was
[08:19] <roryy> ctkroeke1: hrm. I only have linux-headers-2.6.17-10_2.6.17-10.33 (as far as I can tell); your error refers to 10.34 though
[08:19] <NeoGeo64> riotkittie: IN 2007 we use journalised file systems and guis.
[08:19] <OrangeOrange> !i915
[08:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about i915 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:19] <OiPenguinn> Is it possible to find a version 6.10 of Ubuntu which is based on kernel version 2.16.18 or higher?
[08:19] <OrangeOrange> damn.
[08:19] <Stolencheese> Vigo: What's YIM?
[08:20] <roryy> oh well
[08:20] <curs0r> Stolencheese, are you serious?
[08:20] <stefg> Antler: file-roller is a /common/ frontend to a variety of packagers
[08:20] <riotkittie> NeoGeo64: journal, schmournal. gui, shmui.
[08:20] <Stolencheese> I'm assuming, Yahoo Instant Messaging?
[08:20] <curs0r> Stolencheese, bingo!
[08:20] <Stolencheese> I don't use Yahoo
[08:20] <Stolencheese> Just MSN and ICQ.
[08:20] <NeoGeo64> thats why you need a JFS
[08:21] <BenFP> so how do i put a display picture on gaim?
[08:21] <jimmyk> anyone able to help me with the graphical network monitor and a wireless connection, as it's saying signal strength is 0%?
[08:21] <roryy> OiPenguinn: no, the kernel version is fixed per release; only critical updates are done.  You could try to compile your own kernel, though I believe there are many potential problems.
[08:21] <curs0r> i never saw a reason to use YIM, i'm already pestered to death by msn and aim
[08:21] <Vigo> Stolencheese: YIM is Yahoo Messenger, as I understand things, Yahoo and MSN have merged, perhaps useing the YIM will give you access to MSN clients
[08:21] <Antler> @ stefg is that an application? sorry i installed ubuntu for the 1st time today, its all really new to me
[08:22] <stefg> !file-roller | Antler
[08:22] <ubotu> file-roller: an archive manager for GNOME. In component main, is optional. Version 2.16.1-0ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 680 kB, installed size 4952 kB
[08:22] <riotkittie> ooh babys up. bbiab.
[08:22] <chrismhampson> can two linux distros share the same swap partition?
[08:22] <stefg> baah
[08:22] <riotkittie> chrismhampson: yes
[08:22] <tom47> chrismhampson yes
[08:22] <Antler> many thanks, gonna give it a try >:)
[08:22] <BenFP> so i can use WINE to run ms office right?
[08:22] <BenFP> any other app i can use that might be better then WINE?
[08:22] <OiPenguinn> roryy: I'm asking because my USB wireless adapter isn't supported in previous versions. I'm new to Linux and that's a crucial problem. Compiling a kernel (while offline!) is not an option ;-) Any suggestions?
[08:23] <tom47> benfp yes
[08:23] <curs0r> BenFP, that would depend greatly on the version of office
[08:23] <BenFP> like Cedega? is that only for games ?
[08:23] <dbbolton> BenFP codeweavers (proprietary)
[08:23] <hotti> how can i export mails from evolution?
[08:23] <Raffaello> hi everybody I wanna ask something about ubuntu audio system, I have 7+1 sound system but I can use only two speaker :D How can I set that problem?
[08:23] <NeoGeo64> You know, Linux used to be fast.  Ubuntu actually runs SLOWER than Windows XP on my machine.
[08:23] <stefg> Antler: File roller is only sort of a GUI shell for all the command line archivers on your system... so it deals with all the zip rar tgz and bz2 files, and passes them to the right 'engine'
[08:23] <NeoGeo64> I have 1.4GHz p4, 512mb ram
[08:23] <chrismhampson> riotkittie, thanks
[08:23] <NeoGeo64> im not a troll
[08:23] <curs0r> BenFP, cedega doesn't even work well for games much of the time
[08:23] <chrismhampson> tom47, thanks
[08:23] <adaptr> NeoGeo64: that's ancient
[08:23] <NeoGeo64> I know.
[08:23] <BenFP> can i use WINE for games too?
[08:23] <whileimhere> LOL
[08:23] <Polygon89> BenFP: i am curious on why you want to run ms office with wine. Open office and most likely abiword has really good ".doc" support
[08:23] <Antler> ok, do i need to configure it with command lines?
[08:23] <adaptr> NeoGeo64: then try kubuntu or xubuntu
[08:24] <curs0r> of the games i have that are on cedega's supported list 2 out of 12 work
[08:24] <roryy> OiPenguinn: hrm. easyish suggestions are look for another distro with a newer kernel (check fedora, opensuse, etc), or wait for Ubuntu 7.04 (or .0something) (``Feisty Fawn''), due in April (I think...?)
[08:24] <NeoGeo64> ubuntu is reaaaally slow.
[08:24] <Antler> if so i wont bother lol\
[08:24] <OiPenguinn> roryy: By the way, I have a ZyDAS zd1211 USB2.0 wlan adapter
[08:24] <Polygon89> BenFP, games are really shaky with wine and cedega
[08:24] <BenFP> i like the powerpoint on ms office...
[08:24] <Raffaello> is there any helper?
[08:24] <gma> NeoGeo64: my laptop is 1.1GHz (mobile chip) with 768MB RAM. it's fine.
[08:24] <dbbolton> http://winehq.org
[08:24] <adaptr> NeoGeo64: we get it, enough
[08:24] <BenFP> ah i see
[08:24] <riotkittie> i have a 650mhz / 256mb ram ... and notice no difference between xp and ubuntu
[08:24] <stefg> Stolencheese: blame MS/N) and /j #gaim
[08:24] <Polygon89> BenFP, the only game i have gotten to work on wine was "starcraft" and thats from like 98 lol
[08:24] <whileimhere> I dont know I use Win XP and Server 2003 at work with about 300 machines and they are always having issues with the databases or networks. I call Microsoft Products - Job Security!
[08:24] <BenFP> LOL
[08:24] <riotkittie> if anything, ubuntu is somewtha faster
[08:25] <gma> Polygon89: how hard was it to get it to run? I've been trying that a bit but it didn't fly
[08:25] <Stolencheese> GaiN?!
[08:25] <BenFP> i was told wine or cedega could possibly work.. guess i'll have to try
[08:25] <mnk0> anyone familiar with cvs ?
[08:25] <BenFP> should i get wine and cedega and then just test?
[08:25] <kestaz> how to disconnect from pppoe connection ?
[08:25] <gma> mnk0: yep
[08:25] <whileimhere> My neighbor uses Cedega and loves it.
[08:25] <wick2o> BenFP: those are kinda hit or miss
[08:25] <curs0r> BenFP, if you're that heavily invested in windows it's probaby better to dual boot
[08:25] <tom47> !gaim
[08:25] <ubotu> Instant Messenger Clients: Gaim (GNOME, http://help.ubuntu.com/community/GaimHowto), Kopete (KDE), both supporting MSN, Jabber, AIM, Gadu-Gadu, Novell Groupwise, ICQ and IRC.
[08:25] <pollywog> someone asked how to put a pic in Gaim go to Modify account > basic and click on the small console icon
[08:25] <Polygon89> gma, not that hard. The secret was to run winecfg and make sure that the cd drive that the cd was in and make sure it was mounted or detected right in winecfg
[08:25] <stefg> kestaz: sudo poff -a
[08:25] <kestaz> stefg, thx
[08:25] <BenFP> dude i hate windows... but i like ms office... :P
[08:25] <gma> Polygon89: okay, thanks. did you run it as a win95 or 98 system?
[08:25] <mnk0> gma: k, i got a question when i check files into the repository, it makes a file .. eg "index.jps,v"
[08:26] <mnoir> BenFP: or use openoffice which can open and store office docs
[08:26] <gma> mnk0: yeah
[08:26] <roryy> OiPenguinn: ah-ha. Fedora Core 6 has kernel 2.6.18
[08:26] <curs0r> BenFP, open office has mad kung-fu
[08:26] <sheriff> i have an usb flash disk but when i copy something into the drive , it doesnt appear when i plug-in again, so is there anything that i have to do?
[08:26] <Polygon89> gma, afterwards, it ran fine. I had to fool with the audio settings a bit to get so it wasnt like listening to static, but otherwise it ran fine
[08:26] <mnk0> gma how do i make use of that file ?
[08:26] <roryy> OiPenguinn: http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/release-notes/fc6/en_US/sn-OverView.html  -- and fedora.redhat.com in general
[08:26] <gma> Polygon89: brilliant, cheers. will try it
[08:26] <mnk0> gma:  like to use in my application code
[08:26] <gma> mnk0: you don't
[08:26] <Polygon89> gma, i forget what i ran it as, the default i think. just make sure its running in a WINDOW
[08:26] <gma> mnk0: you leave it well alone
[08:26] <panos_bcn>  hi guys, sorry, how can i make the userlist of each channel appear in xchat?
[08:26] <tom47> sheriff are you unmounting the flash drive ?
[08:26] <gma> mnk0: it's internal to your repository, and only the cvs program should use it
[08:26] <pollywog> does anyone know if spams can be blocked in Gaim when they are disguised as AUTH requests?
[08:26] <sheriff> no
[08:26] <Vigo> Stolencheese: Yahoo Instant Messenger is YIM, YIM and MSN are in collaboration now, they merged or something, anyhoots, if you can connect to YIM your friends or contacts are perhaps available through that medium, I knos it is not a fix, but it may be a workaround for you to try.
[08:26] <BenFP> lol ok ok i'll give oppenoffice a try.. i just know that i tried to do a presentation on openoffice and it completly fudged up when i ran it on powerpoint
[08:26] <Polygon89> gma, if you run it as full screen its gonna screw stuff up, I ran it at 800x600 fine (i use 1024x768)
[08:26] <sheriff> tom47: no
[08:26] <gma> mnk0: you should use a copy in a 'working directory'
[08:26] <mnk0> gma oh, so then how do i deploy the latest copy
[08:27] <gma> mnk0: in other words you need to check it out to another location
[08:27] <sheriff> tom47: do i have to unmount it?
[08:27] <mnk0> gma oh ok, so how do i do that?
[08:27] <gma> mnk0: where is your repository? on your own computer?
[08:27] <curs0r> Stolencheese, there are other im clients as well gaim is not the end-all
[08:27] <ja> hi all
[08:27] <gma> Polygon89: cheers, noted
[08:27] <mnk0> gma:  no another box
[08:27] <gma> Polygon89: (and 'shame!')
[08:27] <mnoir> BenFP: the conversion may not be 100% - you gotta play a little.
[08:27] <tom47> sheriff then try doing that ... buffers are not flushed unless you unmount it .. eject i think ... right click on the icon on yr desktop ane ejct/unmount properly
[08:27] <ja> guys, anybody knows how to run ssh so that it gets password from stdin?
[08:27] <gma> mnk0: okay. are they both on your own network, with a secure link between them, or is one out on the net?
[08:27] <ja> ssh user@host < file_contaioning_the_pw does not work
[08:28] <pollywog> ja why not use ssh-agent?
[08:28] <stefg> Ja: why don't you set up RSA auth?
[08:28] <BenFP> and what about photoshop? i love that application... anyways to run it on ubuntu?
[08:28] <OiPenguinn> roryy: Fedora and OpenSuse are both five CD's and from what I can tell does not a live version which is equally easy to use. Plus, I'm concerened about the degree of userfriendlieness and size/support of the community compared to Ubuntu. Do you have any general comments?
[08:28] <curs0r> BenFP, have you tried Gimp?
[08:28] <Polygon89> BenFP, you can try "gimp" which is a really powerful program
[08:28] <yanger> ben42, only 7.0 seems safe to run under wine/ubuntu
[08:28] <boguh> hi, i have the problem that my sound is running to fast, mp3s and so on are played too fast
[08:29] <ja> stefg: because I haven't got a way to do it
[08:29] <Polygon89> BenFP, and you can try "gimpshop" or something to make the gimp have menus and the setup of photoshop
[08:29] <roryy> OiPenguinn: hrm. I believe there is a fedora live cd out, actually. I'll look for a link in a mo
[08:29] <sheriff> tom47 : i ejected it but how can i copy files now?
[08:29] <mnk0> gdm yes that is the case
[08:29] <yanger> ben42, gimp is nice too though
[08:29] <ja> pollywog: huh? ssh-agent?
[08:29] <gma> mnk0: which is the case? both on your network?
[08:29] <mnoir> BenFP: the gimp is the app of choice but it does not have some of the plugins that PS has
[08:29] <BenFP> i know how photoshop works though... i guess i'll have to learn how gimp works... :(
[08:29] <mnk0> gdm yeah both on same network, with secure link
[08:29] <pollywog> yes 'ssh-agent add'
[08:29] <OiPenguinn> roryy: I was hoping someone had compiled Ubuntu 6.10 with a later kernel and made it publicly available. Is that unlikely?
[08:29] <BenFP> oh yeah i'll try the gimpshop then :)
[08:29] <roryy> OiPenguinn: I think that using FC6 will be a lot easier than compiling and installing a kernel, unless you have some software development background
[08:29] <tom47> benfp gimp is excellent however if you absolutely must continue with photosop and many do have to, then you can use WINE/Crossover Linux quite happily
[08:29] <gma> mnk0: it's gma not gdm; I'm having trouble seeing your replies
[08:29] <yanger> is there a way to blank a dvd+rw media? when I throw a dvd+rw media into my drive (which has data on it) and k3b tries to burn it, it just stalls and stalls...
[08:29] <mnk0> gma: omg, sorry man.. heh
[08:29] <pollywog> you might have to do 'ssh agent bash' first
[08:30] <stefg> ja: his means you can't run ssh-keygen -t rsa and copy the pubkey over to the other achine?
[08:30] <gma> mnk0: there are two options; the preferred one uses ssh. do you have ssh setup already?
[08:30] <mnk0> gma it was the first that came up
[08:30] <roryy> OiPenguinn: yeah, it is unlikely. You could try the pre-release for the next ubuntu, but I really wouldn't recommend that for a novice
[08:30] <gma> mnk0: np
[08:30] <mnk0> gma yes ssh setup
[08:30] <hotti> how can i export mails from evolution?
[08:30] <killown> how I do to switch boot splash ubuntu?
[08:30] <Polygon89> BenFP,  there are tons of tutorials for gimp as well to help you learn, becasue its not just for linux, its like the standard free image program on windows and mac too
[08:30] <anirudha> I have installed HP 656C printer using cups, but it doesn't print webpages.
[08:30] <gma> mnk0: cool. on your client machine type something like this...
[08:30] <pollywog> to copy a key to another machine 'ssh-copy-id -i <key.pub>
[08:30] <roryy> OiPenguinn: http://lwn.net/Articles/217350/  (fedora live cd)
[08:30] <yanger> anirudha, firefox?
[08:31] <gma> mnk0: export CVSROOT=:ext:$USER@server:/path/to/repo
[08:31] <anirudha> yes firefox
[08:31] <tom47> sheriff sorry lets be clear .... you plug it in, copy the files or do whatever, then b4 you unplug it or turn off the computer right click on that icon and eject it ... you can then unplug it as the buffers will have been flushed ... sometimes the file is not actually written to the flash drive immediately
[08:31] <ja> stefg: no, I cannot do it, really. I don't get a shell there, the connection just needs to be established for *a_thing* to work :)
[08:31] <anirudha> it only prints out blank pages
[08:31] <Vigo> Kubuntu has a version of the latest release..I think,,let me look again
[08:31] <gma> mnk0: I'm assuming you have an account on both computers, and that the account names are the same
[08:31] <mnk0> gma yes,
[08:31] <gma> mnk0: substitute hostname or IP address for 'server'
[08:31] <killown> how I do to switch boot splash ubuntu?
[08:31] <yanger> anirudha, there's a setting that needs to be set for printing from firefox, i never figured it out either - all i do right now is print to file, convert to pdf, and print the pdf :|
[08:31] <stefg> ja : k... never used ssh inthis manner... sorry no idea
[08:31] <Polygon89> killown,  what do you mean switch boot splash ubuntu
[08:31] <gma> mnk0: let me know when you've typed it
[08:31] <pollywog> ja is this for doing backups or something like that?
[08:31] <ja> stefg: nop, thx anyway
[08:31] <mnk0> gma ok
[08:31] <OiPenguinn> roryy: Yeah, I'll check out Fedora Live CD, while eagerly awaiting Ubuntu 7.04. Thanks for your advice!
[08:32] <roryy> OiPenguinn: np. good luck.
[08:32] <yanger> anirudha, just a workaround :|
[08:32] <killown> Polygon89 boot imagem
[08:32] <ja> pollywog: nope, actually for authenticating myself against my ISP
[08:32] <pollywog> oic
[08:32] <killown> image during boot
[08:32] <anirudha> yanger, that's a good idea, I'll try that : )
[08:32] <ja> pollywog: and really dont ask what ISP it is ;)
[08:32] <Vigo> OilPenguin: Yes, the latest Kubuntu is 7.04,,
[08:32] <Polygon89> killown,  do you mean like its showing kubuntu but you want it to show ubuntu? or are you wanting a custom splash image
[08:32] <pollywog> ja: I won't
[08:32] <yanger> anirudha, tried mozilla?
[08:32] <killown> Polygon89 yes customize
[08:32] <jussi01> Hei all, Ive installed compiz, everythings good except after a few mins I seem to loose my borders - anyone know how to fix this?
[08:32] <mnk0> gma i typed it
[08:32] <yanger> i haven't tried mozilla printing either
[08:32] <yanger> prolly the same issue
[08:32] <anirudha> yanger, no I have not
[08:32] <pollywog> maybe ISPfromhell.com

[08:33] <gma> mnk0: right, you should now be all set. choose the name of one of your CVS modules (i.e. a top level directory inside your repository) and try this: 'cvs co name-of-module'
[08:33] <killown> pollywog, how I do to custom ubuntu splash?

[08:33] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:33] <sheriff> tom47: i did and it worked thanks but if i do it when there are files in the disk, will they be deleted?
[08:33] <baxter_kylie> !wifi
[08:33] <ja> pollywog: you can give me a hint, though ;)
[08:33] <gma> mnk0: co is short for checkout (which you could type instead if you prefer)
[08:33] <mnk0> gma what is co
[08:33] <mnk0> gma ohh k
[08:33] <pollywog> killown: I do not know I am new to Ubuntu though not to Linux
[08:33] <stefg> baxter_kylie: wifi and madwifi are aliased
[08:34] <baxter_kylie> stefg: What are they aliased as?
[08:34] <gma> mnk0: ah, I forgot to tell you something
[08:34] <mnk0> gma ok so that checks it to the "cvsroot/project"
[08:34] <BenFP> i have to purchase cedega?
[08:34] <stefg> baxter_kylie: the bot spits out the same factoid for both keywords
[08:34] <tom47> sheriff if you simply eject the flsh drive before you remove everything is fine
[08:34] <gma> mnk0: er, not really.  'checks it' doesn't really mean anything; you could check in, or you could check out, but you can't just check
[08:34] <gma> mnk0: slow down a bit though, I forgot something
[08:34] <gma> mnk0: type this too; export CVS_RSH=ssh
[08:35] <riotkittie> BenFP: yes.
[08:35] <mnk0> gma ohh yeah, i already typed that tho
[08:35] <gma> mnk0: really? you need to CVS_RSH and CVSROOT seperately.
[08:35] <Kervan> hi. I hav lost my php mysql support while installing GD library how can i get it back?
[08:35] <mnk0> gma like ive been able to checkout from client machine to repositiory,a nd a new version history shows up
[08:35] <Polygon89> killown, here is a page that i found that should help you: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto
[08:36] <killown> Polygon89, thanks
[08:36] <gma> mnk0: you can't check out from client to repository, only from repo to client
[08:36] <gma> mnk0: that's how you make your working directory
[08:36] <OiPenguinn> vigo: The latest Kubuntu is alpha, right? I won't risk using that as I have to make a dual boot with XP.
[08:36] <gma> mnk0: I'm guessing about how far you've got which is silly. how far have you got?
[08:36] <mnk0> gma but on the repo, is the working dir
[08:36] <gma> mnk0: no, the working dir is on the client
[08:37] <gma> mnk0: the cvs co command makes the working dir
[08:37] <mnk0> gma oh k yeah ,
[08:37] <yanger> what does the STAT D<L+ mean?
[08:37] <jussi01> so no one knows how to fix border loss in compiz?
[08:37] <mnk0> gma but the production directory is on the repo
[08:37] <mnk0> gma like where the code is deployed
