[04:59] <Neeled> andrew_, I use ALSA for WINE and don't have any problems.  What seems to be wrong?
[04:59] <daning> /who daning
[04:59] <gop> can you instll xubutnu on ubutnu server
[04:59] <Cuddles_in_KY> wondering if i'd have any trouble configuring for it.
[05:00] <andrew_> Neeled: I am trying to run Pokerstars, and i can't get any sound out of it
[05:00] <jasin> marcel, if its niot installed then you really screwed something up because the alsamixer is installed by default.
[05:00] <bimberi> !bluetooth | Cuddles_in_KY, there is this
[05:00] <ubotu> Cuddles_in_KY, there is this: For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[05:00] <Cuddles_in_KY> thanks bimberi. you've been a lifesaver.
[05:01] <marcel__> it says No such device
[05:01] <h0ndaracer2> hello people
[05:01] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: np, although we haven't got that zip working though.
[05:01] <bimberi> yet :)
[05:01] <marcel__> but I went to sinoptic and it has alsa checked
[05:01] <Neeled> gop, you should be able to, server only installs the text-only stuff, sudo apt-get install xubuntu should install it.
[05:01] <d1gita1> ok.. last time then i won't bother you all again..... i am writing a shell script and i need to change volume in mplayer. i have a FIFO set up and working  (echo "pause" > mplayer_pipe  works fine)  but i cannot seem to set the volume with 'echo "volume 50" > mplayer_pipe'  .  Any ideas?
[05:01] <h0ndaracer2> how do i get unrar i do sudo apt-get install unrar but its not their
[05:01] <jasin> marcel, you can get the alsa mixer here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy/sound/alsamixergui
[05:01] <mcquaid> w3ccv, tried those things, but no change
[05:01] <Neeled> Is there a way I can compare file names between two directories/devices and list ones that differ?
[05:02] <james296> well/
[05:02] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, if this reconfig fails, i'll just hook the drive to my win2k laptop [i know it works there]  and scp the files over.
[05:02] <gop> Neeled,  is server or xubuntu any good on a amd 1.2 ghz 256 mb of ram
[05:02] <h0ndaracer2> !unrar
[05:02] <ubotu> unrar is 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
[05:02] <gop> how much hd space can I put on a amd 1.2 ghz
[05:02] <gop> can I get three 250 gig
[05:02] <marcel__> o.k. I am downloading
[05:02] <gop> 3x250
[05:02] <viator> hmmmm im having a few probs with ubuntu kubuntu alternative cd installs
[05:02] <viator> well it installs fine
[05:02] <viator> on a few different boxes
[05:03] <viator> but afterwards iget  all these lines on the screens
[05:03] <Bhaskar> ziro: how can i format usb drive
[05:03] <viator> like the monitors are dying
[05:03] <communico_> hi everyone. i'm having trouble mounting one of my harddrives. The rest all work fine, but one gives an error that says mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdc1, [ 2313.986787]  EXT3-fs error (device sdc1): ext3_check_descriptors: Block bitmap for group 896 not in group (block 976368160)!
[05:03] <communico_> [ 2313.987255]  EXT3-fs: group descriptors corrupted !. I'm wondering if there's something I can do to restore the filesystem on it without losing the data
[05:03] <Neeled> gop, if I'm understanding you correctly, you could put as much hard drive space on it as you have hard drives for.
[05:03] <viator> i tried reconfiguring x but it didnt seem to work
[05:03] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, it's working now.
[05:04] <viator> maybe because i chose all the defaults?
[05:04] <Cuddles_in_KY> thank you so very much bimberi.
[05:04] <gop> Neeled,  ubuntu has no limit how about bios
[05:04] <viator> i couldnt read what it said
[05:04] <w3ccv> mcquaid, I new I shouldn't have said "I found it".
[05:04] <gop> I mean I understand some bios
[05:04] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: super cool! :)
[05:04] <viator> i just kind of guessed based on memory
[05:04] <gop> allow only 137 gig per drive
[05:04] <gop> k thanks
[05:04] <h0ndaracer2> q
[05:05] <viator> is there somthing wrong with the alternative install cd's
[05:05] <mcquaid> w3ccv, heh, but thx for all your help, i'm sure you've pointed me in the right direction.  just doing some reading now
[05:05] <Cuddles_in_KY> thanks again.
[05:05] <Neeled> gop, xubuntu should run on that easily.  I've got Ubuntu running fine on a 600mhz with 128mb RAM.  As far as BIOS, it depends on what kind it is.
[05:06] <nikin> viator: whatconfiguration did you choose on the x config? advanced?
[05:06] <trainer_> hi, I can't seem to get an internet connection. my network status looks ok, but ifconfig does not show an "inet addr", only one for ipv6. can anyone help me
[05:06] <jasin> you dont need 137 gigs to run ubuntu
[05:06] <gop> Neeled,  oh k I see
[05:06] <gop> Neeled,  I just saying, some in my condo throw away this computer
[05:06] <viator> i chose simple
[05:06] <marcel__> I have downloaded  and installed alsamixergui
[05:06] <gop> he took out the hd and ram
[05:06] <gop> but I have some ram left
[05:07] <gop> he or she
[05:07] <gop> hmm it has 6 pci slots
[05:07] <gop> and one agp
[05:07] <jasin> you can install everything listed in synaptics and still not use up 40 gigs
[05:07] <gop> jasin,  oh
[05:07] <vnieto> hi
[05:07] <gop> but if I wanted to save my dvr stuff
[05:07] <nikin> viator: and you have chosen the right size for your  monitor?
[05:07] <jasin> I know, I've done it lol
[05:07] <gop> sweet
[05:07] <w3ccv> mcquaid, I'm using DNS & Bind - the Grasshopper book - everything looks good.  I'm sure you have a missing punctuation somewhere but I don't see it., These problems are not easy to debug, but when you do you will have that flat spot on your forehead when you slap it and say "Yes Why didn't I see that !!!???"
[05:07] <Neeled> jasin, that must have been a fun download
[05:07] <gop> jasin,  why the need for everything
[05:07] <marcel__> but when I type alsamixer, it gives me an error message
[05:08] <jasin> marcel,  open alsa mixer, goto file  and then change device
[05:08] <viator> funny thing is i installed ubuntu and kubuntu on multiple pc's some with ati some with nvidia
[05:08] <viator> all different monitors
[05:08] <jasin> marcel, what error?
[05:08] <viator> but 17 inch
[05:08] <gop> is thier any speed difreence from ide to sata pci card
[05:08] <viator> same problem
[05:08] <Harkonnen20> I have a question
[05:09] <gop> seen it has no sata bulit in, would I see a speed increase in disk write and read from a sata pci card
[05:09] <nikin> marcel: and "alsamixergui" is not working?
[05:09] <Harkonnen20> Im trying to run the live cd of 6.1 and when I boot with the disc and hit start, it goes through some loading stuff then gives me an x server error.
[05:09] <gop> and sata disk
[05:09] <mcquaid> w3ccv, lol so true.  usually it's when you back away from the problem for a bit and come back and you find it in instantly.
[05:09] <gop> hmm
[05:09] <Neeled> gop, give it a shot, as long as it's the same kind of RAM as the computer needs it shouldn't be a problem, of course.
[05:09] <gop> yea
[05:09] <gop> I put the sdram and got a live cd to boot
[05:09] <gop> but
[05:09] <marcel__> I clicked Application, sound&video alsamixer but got this message"function snd... error no such device"
[05:09] <blanky> im open to questions!
[05:09] <gop> it has no Hd I guessw who ever was the person who throw it out
[05:09] <Neeled> blanky, Is there a way I can compare file names between two directories/devices and list ones that differ?
[05:10] <gop> gutted it hd and ram
[05:10] <w3ccv> mcquaid, I find that sodoku is the same way.  I've gotta run, but good luck
[05:10] <w3ccv> mcquaid, and look at my /part message
[05:10] <viator> you need 192 mb for the live cd to work properly
[05:10] <blanky> Neeled: well
[05:10] <gop> I just wonder if I get a sata card, and put sata based hd will it go faster or run faster in write and read compared to ide built in to mobo
[05:10] <nikin> marcel__ try the 'alsamixergui' command
[05:10] <blanky> Neeled: hold up a second
[05:10] <gop> !sata
[05:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sata - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:10] <Neeled> blanky, sure, I'm patient.
[05:11] <blanky> Neeled: you can use diff, a gui for it such as Kompare, and see which files are in which directories
[05:11] <blanky> I believe that's a smple way
[05:11] <marcel__> alsamixergui "can't open display"
[05:11] <blanky> you just choose both directories
[05:11] <genben> blanky: i have this rash ... 8-)
[05:11] <jasin> marcel, are you root?
[05:11] <marcel__> yes
[05:11] <blanky> genben: ice cream
[05:11] <genben> haha, cheers
[05:11] <Neeled> gop, I've got one of those IDE RAID cards and I don't notice any speed difference than when directly connected to the mobo
[05:11] <viator> oh and i have edgy
[05:11] <blanky> Neeled: you could also probably ls recursively (dont know the command at the top of my head) and pipe it to a file and then diff them both
[05:11] <nikin> marcel: do you have the X installed?
[05:11] <viator> not dapper
[05:11] <Falstius> gop: sustained writes will be faster, but for most things you won't notice the difference.  If you want to use it as a backup server or video editing, then you will.
[05:11] <viator> cd's
[05:12] <marcel__> X  you mean gnome?
[05:12] <blanky> Neeled: ls --recursive > directoryone.txt
[05:12] <andrew_> everyone: I figured it out!! the sound is going out of my onboard, in WINE, even though it should be using my soundlbaster :-(
[05:12] <blanky> and the same for the other directory, though I don't know if ls --recursive is the command
[05:12] <nikin> marcel: yep, ork KDE or whatever
[05:12] <marcel__> yes, I use Gnome
[05:13] <marcel__> the thing is my sound control is muted and when I try to turn it up it goes down automatically
[05:13] <nikin> marcel... and when you type ALT+F2 in gnome, and write there "alsamixergui" and hit enter... he writes it cant open the display?
[05:13] <Neeled> blanky, thanks I'll try that.
[05:13] <genben> andrew_: have you tried to turn off your onboard sound thru the BIOS? i had t do that to my VIA/AC97 to get my soundblaster to work
[05:13] <jasin> marcel, sounds like the sound card is not installed or ubuntu is not detecting it. Try installing all of the following: alsa-base, alsa-oss, alsa-utils, libasound2, linux-sound-base
[05:13] <blanky> Neeled: my pleasure, hope it works
[05:14] <jasin> marcel, you can get them off of synaptics, use the search word: alsa
[05:14] <andrew_> genben: I will
[05:14] <genben> default is onboard, always causes problems
[05:15] <marcel__> it says: alsamixer function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[05:15] <marcel__> I go to synoptic
[05:16] <snadge> for some reason gdm wont start anymore and i get the error "could not open default font 'fixed'" am I missing font packages? where should i look
[05:16] <marcel__> alsa-base, alsamixergui, alsa-util  = installed
[05:16] <blanky> snadge: what was the last significant thing you remember doing
[05:17] <blanky> snadge: before this happened
[05:17] <bimberi> snadge: you could try this, although it does relate to VNC...
[05:17] <bimberi> !vncfix | snadge
[05:17] <ubotu> snadge: If you are getting errors like "could not open default font 'fixed'" when running a VNC server: 'sudo ln -s /usr/share/X11/fonts /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts'
[05:17] <Spectus> Hey everyone ... I just installed Ubuntu 6.06 from the live CD and upgraded to 6.10 and my problem is that when I save files to the Desktop (/home/justin/Desktop) they aren't appearing in that folder and they don't show up on the desktop ... but if I open it in Thunar all of the files show up.
[05:18] <Spectus> So is there a Nautilus setting I need to change?
[05:18] <snadge> blanky: I cant remember.. i was running debian before i put the ubuntu drive back in.. and its been a while =)
[05:18] <bruenig> Spectus, the xfce desktop is funny
[05:18] <Spectus> I'm running the gnome desktop enviroment
[05:18] <bruenig> why thunar?
[05:18] <Spectus> Just an extra file manager I have I guess
[05:18] <Spectus> My point was, the files are there, but they aren't showing up in Nautilus
[05:18] <nikin> Bruening: you have to eneble Xfce to manage your desktop
[05:19] <bruenig> yes I do and the it goes away
[05:19] <nikin> ohh.. sorry.. spectus
[05:19] <bruenig> i don't ever keep anything on it so I don't worry abou tit
[05:19] <marcel__> any more ideas before I hit the bed?
[05:19] <gop> Falstius,  just use for saving my dvr stuff
[05:19] <gop> Falstius,  one last question in looking at hard drives
[05:19] <Spectus> nikin: I don't want to run xfce, I want nautilus to work right and display my files
[05:19] <gop> wtf is pata
[05:19] <gop> is that a new standard
[05:19] <gop> wtf annother standard
[05:20] <kitche> gop: it's IDE
[05:20] <gop> Parallel A
[05:20] <gop> oh
[05:20] <Harkonnen20> ya pata is regular drives
[05:20] <gop> ide opps
[05:20] <Spectus> I only brought Thunar into the picture to prove that the files are there and they just aren't showing up in Nautilus :s
[05:20] <gop> I know by ide opps
[05:20] <gop> I forgot
[05:20] <gop> I suck at computer jargon
[05:20] <nikin> Spectus: are you running gnome?
[05:20] <kitche> gop: they renamed them for some reason :)
[05:20] <Spectus> nikin: yes
[05:20] <blanky> hey guys, in the alternate install disk
[05:20] <blanky> i choose install base system right?
[05:20] <gop> oh they did
[05:20] <marcel__> o.k. than you for trying. good-night
[05:21] <gop> I always new for ide
[05:21] <isenmike> can anybody help me get my opengl hardware acceleration working?
[05:21] <gop> my pc bible
[05:21] <gop> said ide
[05:21] <nikin> Spectus: and if you look at the desktop folder in Nautilus.. it does show the contents of it? or just Thunar does?
[05:21] <tonyyarusso> How can you have uploaded files automatically chmoded with vsftpd?
[05:21] <isenmike> I have an ATI Radeon X800, I have installed the fglrx drivers, and everything works great until I try and run a game or a screensaver or anything with 3D, at which point things slow to a crawl
[05:22] <blanky> guys
[05:22] <blanky> in the alternate install disk
[05:22] <blanky> do i choose install base system?
[05:22] <Spectus> nikin: Nautilus shows Desktop as empty but Thunar shows all of the files
[05:22] <viator> yes
[05:22] <Harkonnen20> Hey guys I need some help. Im trying to run the live cd of 6.1 and when I boot with the disc and hit start. It goes through some loading stuff then gives me an x server error.
[05:23] <blanky> viator: im trying to install the desktop
[05:23] <viator> install base system
[05:23] <aNi`> can some one plz explian  export PS1="(chroot) $PS1"
[05:24] <andrew_> I just disabled my onboard sound, all the sound works in ubuntu except for logon/logoff and the other system sounds :-(
[05:24] <isenmike> when I run fglrxinfo, I get " Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0". "
[05:24] <bimberi> aNi`: it's adding "(chroot) " to the front of your existing bash prompt
[05:24] <tonyyarusso> Harkonnen20: One thing to note is that the live cd is limited in the graphics card / monitor combinations it can handle, so it's possible it won't work on your system.  Even if that is the case, you may be able to install off the !alternate cd and be just fine.  Something to consider.
[05:24] <nikin> Spectus: and if you create a dokument clicking with rigth button on the desktop and choosing create document?
[05:24] <aNi`> bimberi so its telling me that we are in a chroot enviroment?
[05:24] <Harkonnen20> i just wanna try it out, not install it though
[05:24] <Spectus> isenmike: I don't know if it would have anything to do with your problem, but no games worked right on my ATI card until I disabled Composite
[05:25] <Spectus> nikin: I tried creating a launcher on the desktop and it just disappeared
[05:25] <Harkonnen20> my monitor is widescreen maybe that is screwing it up?
[05:25] <MegaTrousers> I have an ATI mobility x1600 in my laptop. Resolution at 1440x900. How can I set my external 4:3 LCD to appear as, not a clone, but a horizontal extension on my LCD?
[05:25] <tonyyarusso> Harkonnen20: Do you have a funny monitor resolution or something?
[05:25] <Spectus> nikin: but thunar shows it
[05:25] <Harkonnen20> 1680x1050
[05:25] <tonyyarusso> Harkonnen20: That could be.  (Maybe ask a friend to borrow theirs ;)  )
[05:25] <isenmike> spectus: I tried that... didn't help
[05:25] <exs> guys, I've lost a bar thingy. So for example, when I click to close gaim ( the window ), instead of closing and then going into the tray, the tray is not there so I am unable to click it to see it again. This is the sae for all of my programs (no tray)
[05:26] <Spectus> isenmike: hmm, sorry then :S
[05:26] <trainer_> can anyone help me with this network issue?
[05:26] <Harkonnen20> bah i don't wanna bring that big honking thing up from downstairs lol
[05:26] <elyon225> What is the difference between 'Desktop User' and 'Unpriviledged User'?
[05:26] <tonyyarusso> exs: As in, you killed your gnome-panel?
[05:26] <isenmike> anybody else know anything about ATI drivers and OpenGL?
[05:26] <MegaTrousers> I have an ATI mobility x1600 in my laptop. Resolution at 1440x900. How can I set my external 4:3 LCD to appear as, not a clone, but a horizontal extension on my LCD?
[05:27] <bimberi_> aNi`: not in itself, but i imagine that's part of a larger script that does so? (sorry, got disconnected)
[05:27] <exs> tonyyarusso: Not quite. My gnome panel is still fine. it has applications / places, aswell as the shortcut icons, and my dictionary applet, and the network monitor, but it has none of the programs which should be there when they are running (for example the gaim icon)
[05:27] <Harkonnen20> im not getting a very good first impression from ubuntu if i can't even start it up :P
[05:27] <tonyyarusso> exs: and gaim does have it's system tray thing enabled?
[05:28] <aNi`> bimberi_ yeah it is some gentooo install guide just having trouble on dis one thing THX.. ur a big help
[05:28] <exs> tonyyarusso It does have it's systam tray thing enabled.
[05:28] <KHatfull> Hi, here's a question (and yes, I've searched the forums for an hour...):  Trying to install a command line system from the Feisty alternate CD, CD boots, installation starts, goes through keyboard selection, and then can't mount the CD to do the install.  I've burned a CD at the lowest speed I can, no go.  Any other ideas?  Oh, Thinkpad 600X is the machine.
[05:28] <tonyyarusso> Harkonnen20: Yeah, that's understandable.  It's one of the unfortunate results of trying to pack everything into one CD - it can't do everything.
[05:28] <bimberi> aNi`: np :)
[05:28] <tonyyarusso> KHatfull: #ubuntu+1 for feisty
[05:28] <nikin> Spectus: if you open nautilus and go toyour home dir is there a litle desktop like image on the right upper side of you desktop icom?
[05:28] <elyon225> What is the difference between 'Desktop User' and 'Unpriviledged User'?
[05:28] <KHatfull> my apologies..
[05:28] <jackson3246> how do I change the resolution of my xorg terminal (the one I use when not running a gui)?
[05:29] <tonyyarusso> exs: Maybe it's one of thing things you can add to panel?  Notification area perhaps?  I'm not really sure.
[05:29] <Harkonnen20> im guessing setting my resolution to 1024x768 in windows won't do squat :P
[05:29] <Spectus> nikin: I don't understand what you mean
[05:29] <exs> tonyyarusso:  same here, I don't know either. Maybe there's a gnome irc channel?
[05:29] <mena> hey friends i have aproblem i cant find my partitons after i had reformate them to ext3
[05:29] <tonyyarusso> exs: There is - on gimpnet I believe.
[05:29] <exs> tonyyarusso thanks
[05:30] <nikin> Spectus: select places menu > home folder
[05:30] <viator> yeah its notification
[05:30] <viator> area
[05:31] <Harkonnen20> so there is no other way to get this to work other than bringing up my other monitor...
[05:31] <andrew_> is there any way to re-load ALSA?
[05:31] <nikin> Spectus: that should open your home dir
[05:31] <dude> do you know if i can install sakai with free java  instead of jre
[05:31] <tonyyarusso> Harkonnen20: You could try checking out the resolution option on the live cd - it may be in there, may not.
[05:31] <Spectus> nikin: Yeah, I'm in my home dir but I don't see a desktop like image in the top
[05:31] <jackson3246> how do I change the resolution of my xorg terminal (the one I use when not running a gui)?
[05:31] <Harkonnen20> no idea where that is
[05:32] <exs> tonyyarusso I'm using gnomes xchat and I don't know how to tell it to connect to gimpnet ...
[05:32] <Harkonnen20> only linux i've ever used is knoppix live cd :P
[05:32] <nikin> soo the desktop folders icon is like any other folders
[05:32] <gop> !lxdoom
[05:32] <ubotu> lxdoom: Unix port of boom, an enhanced version of DOOM. In component universe, is optional.   Right when it starts, look around on that screen.  Somewhere on there I believe is something about resolution options (along with things like accessibility, etc).  Basically, just select it (arrow keys and enter), and poke around and see if any of that is useful.  Could also try safe graphics mode.
[05:34] <bimberi> exs: IRC -> Connect -> GimpNet -> Connect
[05:35] <tonyyarusso> exs: File > Servers | Gimpnet I think (don't use xchat, but did once)
[05:35] <toastytaco> Who do I talk to about some help with a linux media website??
[05:35] <Harkonnen20> starting it in safe graphics mode also takes it to the live cd right?
[05:35] <exs> viator:  no, not yet. I#m visiting gimpnet to ask in there
[05:35] <viator> all ya have to do is rightclick and choose add to panel and
[05:35] <viator> choose
[05:35] <exs> bimberi: thanks
[05:35] <viator> notification area
[05:36] <dude> do you know if i can install sakai with free java  instead of jre
[05:36] <tonyyarusso> mena: Define "find"

[05:36] <tonyyarusso> (if it succeeds)
[05:36] <mena> okay i have a problem with my partitions bec after i had reformate them to ext3 i cant see them or brows what to doo
[05:36] <Harkonnen20> yeah big if eh
[05:37] <Harkonnen20> also i noticed something else weird

[05:37] <austinguy> Hi. My sister (in Virginia) and I (in Texas) want to send files back and forth to each other.  We both have broadband.  What's the best way to do this if she has Windows and I have Ubuntu?
[05:37] <Harkonnen20> when i boot into ubuntu my cpu fan shuts off...
[05:38] <mena> and something happened to the file system
[05:38] <dude> mena, when you format it erases all data so all what u had is gone
[05:38] <nekohayo> hey people, I think there are some dbus updates in edgy-security that breaks gnome's setting daemon
[05:38] <nekohayo> could someone confirm this?
[05:38] <Spectus> nikin: apparently I had to hit Ctrl+R on the desktop to get my files to appear
[05:38] <tonyyarusso> Harkonnen20: does it stay that way after things get hot?
[05:38] <Spectus> nikin: Shouldn't nautilus be.. doing this automatically?
[05:38] <jasin> People like to blame linux when things go wrong, but most always -- its something we did.
[05:39] <craigbass1976> austinguy, whoever has windows use pscp (an ssh copy utility for windows)
[05:39] <Harkonnen20> i dunno i can't get ubuntu to run
[05:39] <mena> okay i know that but now i cant see them and i had mount them throw terminal and after arebort they cant be mount
[05:39] <Harkonnen20> thank god my cpu isn't one to get too hot
[05:39] <tonyyarusso> mena: add them to !fstab with the new fs
[05:40] <dude> mena, how did you format them
[05:40] <mena> throw gparted
[05:40] <xtknight> Harkonnen20: have the bios run the fan at full at all times, it will probably solve the problem.  mine got to 98C yesterday but i think that was the motherboard's fault (i told the mobo to control the fan itself, but now i tell it to run the fan at 100% all the time)
[05:40] <mena> and i dont know the waay to ad them
[05:40] <Harkonnen20> mine doesn't have that much control really
[05:40] <Harkonnen20> oem garbage
[05:40] <xtknight> oh
[05:40] <dude> mena, what version of ubuntu are you using
[05:40] <mena> i just installed the ubuntu and i dont know much
[05:41] <mena> 6.10
[05:41] <austinguy> Craigbass: I don't have a static IP, and she's not that technically adept (nor am I for that matter.)
[05:41] <Spectus> nikin: Well I guess its working now... Thanks for your help
[05:41] <Harkonnen20> last time i messed with the bios settings the fan didn't come on when i went into windows :P
[05:41] <Harkonnen20> i was trying to set warning and minimum temps
[05:42] <dude> mena, ok   try this ok    system -> administration -> disks
[05:42] <viator> go into the bios and choose the set defaults
[05:42] <dude> mena, do you understand
[05:42] <viator> maybe thatll fix it
[05:42] <mena> yes but i didnt find disks
[05:43] <Harkonnen20> brb gonna mess with my BIOS
[05:44] <dude> mena,  gedit /etc/fstab   then paste it in paste bin  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[05:44] <exs> just incase any of you were wondring, I fixed my panel via adding the 'notificaton area applet' to via programs that give an icon in the taskbar.
[05:44] <austinguy> Is there any way we can set up a VPN?
[05:45] <mena> ok
[05:45] <viator> exs great
[05:45] <viator> glad you got it straightened out
[05:46] <professor> hey all
[05:46] <austinguy> Or perhaps using GProFTPD to set up an FTP server?
[05:46] <craigbass1976> austinguy, have you gotten the private messages I sent?
[05:46] <mena> After That dude
[05:46] <austinguy> Ah, yes, didn't see em.
[05:46] <professor> how do you compile in ubuntu, and do all programs you download have to be compiled
[05:47] <dude> mena, what is the link to the paste bin
[05:47] <mena> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/518/
[05:47] <mena> Thisi
[05:47] <viator> ypu need the build essential package
[05:47] <viator> to compile stuff
[05:48] <lethargic> Hello.  I have two queries.  I removed an application via add/remove (gnome-xchat) and it IS gone, but it still is in the applications menu.  How do I remove it from there?
[05:48] <viator> you shouldnt need to compile much everything you could want is in the repos
[05:48] <craigbass1976> lethargic, I don't know as you can.  I think that is just a list of all possible apps you can install
[05:48] <superkirbyartist> !hello
[05:48] <ubotu> hello: The classic greeting, and a good example. In component main, is optional. Version 2.1.1-4 (edgy), package size 47 kB, installed size 472 kB
[05:48] <gop> why won't ident work in
[05:48] <simon^templar> excuse me, how do i add a normal user to bocome root or su?
[05:48] <gop> irc
[05:48] <gop> oident won't work
[05:48] <gop> with any irc client
[05:49] <gop> do I have to configue it by hand
[05:49] <lethargic> craigbass, i mean it is still in my applications/internet menu.  not in add/remove
[05:49] <dude> mena, you mis understood me  copy what text shows up in the gedit window
[05:49] <andrew_> anyone: When I installed ubuntu, I had my onboard enabled but was using a PCI soundcard, I disabled the onboard to clear some OSS problems, but now my ALSA wont work, is there any way to re-load ALSA?
[05:49] <craigbass1976> Oh, I don't know.  I'm in Fedora right now.
[05:49] <bimberi> lethargic: use the menu editor (right-click on Applications -> Edit Menus).  BTW, that is a bug, feel free to report it.
[05:49] <mena> okay soory
[05:49] <zmuth734> hi everyone i'm having kind of a crisis with my ubuntu after installing a theme, can someone PM me please?
[05:49] <dude> mena, then paste it
[05:49] <professor> how do you get to become a super user permentally in graphic interface mode
[05:49] <craigbass1976> Please, nobody throw tomatoes...
[05:50] <craigbass1976> professor, that's a bad idea
[05:50] <professor> really why
[05:50] <bimberi> professor: what do you need to do?
[05:50] <tonyyarusso> !pm | zmuth734
[05:50] <ubotu> zmuth734: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first.
[05:50] <craigbass1976> professor, to easy to muck things up.  That's how so many people break their Windows boxes.
[05:50] <imbecile> ok guys, i am missing out on something here, I have ipw3945 and i know it should run out of the box but i dont see any wifi connections in network manager.. is there perhaps some dependancies I'm missing?
[05:50] <lethargic> bimberi,  thank you.
[05:50] <Peebo> Ok here's one when I do this     nspluginwrapper -i /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so     I get this      .: 4: Out of file descriptors      <- twice
[05:50] <professor> I was trying to copy files to a folder and it says I dont have permission to be in there
[05:50] <lethargic> What if you wanted to be a super user in one folder... like /home/Desktop/audio
[05:51] <viator> professor change the permissions
[05:51] <lethargic> And have graphical-access to it at all times to drag files
[05:51] <viator> of the folder
[05:51] <professor> viator how do I do that
[05:51] <bimberi> professor: run the file manager as root.  'gksudo nautilus'
[05:51] <andrew_> anyone: When I installed ubuntu, I had my onboard enabled but was using a PCI soundcard, I disabled the onboard to clear some OSS problems, but now my ALSA wont work, is there any way to re-load ALSA?
[05:51] <craigbass1976> professor, you could open a terminal and sudo cp /files/you/want/copied /where/you/want/them
[05:51] <tonyyarusso> bimberi: Um...I've heard that's a bad idea, b/c it mucks up permissions.
[05:51] <viator> use the chmod command
[05:51] <dude> do you know if i can install sakai with free java  instead of jre
[05:51] <professor> what does gksudo do
[05:52] <zmuth734> Okay here's my question:  I accidentally dragged a mouse cursor theme into the gnome theme manager and applied it, and now everything is messed up.  How can I change the theme back?  I can't even get into ubuntu now
[05:52] <mena> dude , gtk_text_util_create_rich_drag_icon: layout size 360 19
[05:52] <mena> _gtk_text_util_create_rich_drag_icon: pixmap size 260 29
[05:52] <lethargic> bimberi, i actually also have the same problem as professor.  i tried gksudo nautilus, but folders i've created on the home/Desktop beforehand do not show up there.
[05:52] <bimberi> tonyyarusso: what, running nautilus? or using gksudo to run it?
[05:52] <craigbass1976> professor, or chown professor:professor /directory/where/you/can't/copy/stuff
[05:52] <viator> gksudo natulis runs natulis as superuser
[05:52] <viator> if i recall
[05:52] <tonyyarusso> bimberi: running nautilus as root
[05:52] <dude> mena, brb
[05:52] <professor> ok
[05:52] <mena> okay
[05:52] <craigbass1976> professor, where is the directory, by the way.  Is it a directory you shouldn't be copying into in the first place?
[05:52] <professor> where is a good place to learn terminal
[05:52] <andrew_> anyone: When I installed ubuntu, I had my onboard enabled but was using a PCI soundcard, I disabled the onboard to clear some OSS problems, but now my ALSA wont work, is there any way to re-load ALSA?
[05:53] <professor> well last night I had to reinstall ubuntu
[05:53] <bimberi> tonyyarusso: hmmk.  I'll stop recommending that then.  Thanks
[05:53] <nolimitsoya> this keeps returning 'Cowardly refusing to create an empty archive', what wrong: 'find -iname "\.*" | tar cpjf bkp.tar.bz2'?
[05:53] <professor> and I dont have a wireless card that is detectable
[05:53] <nolimitsoya> *
[05:53] <professor> so I needed ndiswrapper
[05:53] <imbecile> ok guys, i am missing out on something here, I have ipw3945 and i know it should run out of the box but i dont see any wifi connections in network manager.. is there perhaps some dependancies I'm missing?
[05:53] <zmuth734> how do you change themes from the terminal??
[05:54] <professor> So I had it on cd but I couild not install them, it came up as files not packages
[05:54] <professor> so I tried to cpy the files into the folder
[05:54] <professor> didnt work
[05:54] <viator> ndiswrapper?
[05:54] <Peebo> when I do this     nspluginwrapper -i /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so     I get this      .: 4: Out of file descriptors      <- twice  help please!
[05:54] <andrew_> imbecile: is your wifi turned on? is it a laptop?
[05:54] <viator> just install it via apt
[05:54] <craigbass1976> professor, ahh.  Then do the sudo cp /files/you/want/copied /where/you/want/them
[05:54] <viator> snaptic or whatever
[05:54] <n2diy> ! enter professor
[05:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about enter professor - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:54] <dude> mena, where do you live
[05:54] <professor> no no no I got it all now, I had to connect ot the internet
[05:54] <Harkonnen20> tonyyarusso it doesn't work in safe graphics mode either
[05:55] <tonyyarusso> Harkonnen20: :(
[05:55] <Harkonnen20> i even set the vga to 1024x768x32
[05:55] <Harkonnen20> no dice
[05:55] <bimberi> tonyyarusso: any further info.  such as _what_ permissions? or a link?
[05:55] <gop> !chess
[05:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about chess - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:55] <viator> its on the cd
[05:55] <andrew_> ubotu: When I installed ubuntu, I had my onboard enabled but was using a PCI soundcard, I disabled the onboard to clear some OSS problems, but now my ALSA wont work, is there any way to re-load ALSA?
[05:55] <Harkonnen20> says there are no screens
[05:55] <viator> if i recall
[05:55] <zmuth734> arghhh someone please help me i just broke ubuntu
[05:55] <professor> By the way this is a great IRC channel
[05:55] <tonyyarusso> bimberi: No - strictly hearsay on my end.  You'd have to ask around for something more in-depth.
[05:56] <andrew_> ubotu: I cannot run alsamixer anymore i get " function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device"
[05:56] <professor> where is a good place to learn terminal
[05:56] <mena> in egypt why
[05:56] <craigbass1976> professor, a bit crowded though sometimes... and it must be confusing to have me and a couple others throwing answers at you :)
[05:56] <nolimitsoya> this keeps returning 'Cowardly refusing to create an empty archive', whats wrong: find -iname "\.*" | tar cpjf bkp.tar.bz2
[05:56] <professor> lol yea it is
[05:56] <mena> dude, in egypt
[05:56] <professor> everyone has there own way to do stuff
[05:56] <professor> like master mechaincs for microchips
[05:56] <n2diy> professor: man bash
[05:57] <Harkonnen20> should i try setting it to 800x600?
[05:57] <andrew_> anyone: When I installed ubuntu, I had my onboard enabled but was using a PCI soundcard, I disabled the onboard to clear some OSS problems, but now my ALSA wont work, is there any way to re-load ALSA?
[05:57] <professor> man bash?  sorry I am a noob
[05:57] <craigbass1976> professor, see if this toots your horn http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-bash.html
[05:57] <Peebo> nolimitsoya: your piping into tar so it's trying to create an archine
[05:57] <craigbass1976> professor, man bash is kind of confusing
[05:57] <nolimitsoya> Peebo, yes, so far so good :)
[05:57] <FlyingSquirrel33> why is it that when I connect to vnc on my remote machine using the Terminal Server Client, it works fine, but when I do "vncviewer desktop:0" at the command line I get rejected?
[05:57] <dude> mena, there is one thing we can try ok  it is called remote desktop  so i can show you your problem by moveing your mouse and typing keys for you   does this sound like something you want to try
[05:57] <imbecile> andrew_,  I believe my wifi is up, I have it turned on in network manager but that is all the configuration i did
[05:57] <n2diy> professor: at the terminal prompt type ..man bash
[05:58] <mena> i know about it okay
[05:58] <professor> I want to learn the basics of moving around the terminal
[05:58] <professor> im not really good at it
[05:58] <mena> okay that would be slow
[05:58] <mena> or okay
[05:58] <professor> and I heard that if you want to be good you need to learn the terminal
[05:58] <zmuth734> I installed a mouse cursor theme in gnome theme manager by accident and now my ubuntu is broken!!! ur not supposed to install mouse cursor themes there but it did it anyway!!
[05:58] <nolimitsoya> Peebo, i guess my question is, why isnt the archive created with the output of the find command...
[05:58] <craigbass1976> n2diy, mayhaps he's looking ofr more of a tutorial.  Know of any good walkthroughs for bash?
[05:59] <n2diy> craigbass1976: roger that, wait.
[05:59] <dude> mena, i need to set it to accept a connection   k and let it allow me to control
[05:59] <kyncani> professor: The Linux command reference may be found here: http://justlinux.com/nhf/Command_Reference and here: http://justlinux.com/nhf/Shells/Basic_Console_Commands.html
[05:59] <Peebo> nolimitsoya: when I do     find -iname "\.*"      it returns      .         on a single line
[05:59] <craigbass1976> professor, the terminal ends up being faster I think.  Whenever I sit at a windows box now, I get very "thumb-twiddly."
[05:59] <mena> okay will see
[05:59] <professor> lol
[05:59] <professor> I like terminal
[05:59] <professor> but I suck at it
[06:00] <professor> really bad
[06:00] <professor> so many commands dont know where to start
[06:00] <nolimitsoya> Peebo, when i do it it returns all hiddens files and dirs in the current path :)
[06:00] <craigbass1976> Everybody does at first.
[06:00] <zhuqi> i got a problem on printing graphic with ubuntu 6.10 .. anybody know the solution please?
[06:00] <n2diy> ! enter |professor
[06:00] <ubotu> professor: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:00] <dude> mena, tell me when i can try
[06:00] <craigbass1976> Then after you get pretty good, you meet someone better and realize that you still suck
[06:00] <mena> okay now no prob
[06:00] <slicky> is there a PAL-B tv tuner support for linux? :S  cant get any signal on my tvcard..
[06:00] <d1gita1> is there a way to use mplayer and festival at the same time?
[06:00] <Peebo> prof, it's not called Terminal:   the terminal simply open the default shell   in my case BASH.  SO I would need to learn bash if I were in your case
[06:00] <professor> lol at craig
[06:00] <kyncani> professor: start getting good books
[06:01] <professor> like ???
[06:01] <professor> Craig where you from
[06:01] <craigbass1976> professor, see what OReilly has
[06:01] <craigbass1976> maine
[06:01] <n2diy> professor, here is everything, almost, you'll ever need to know about linux:  http://rute.2038bug.com/rute.html.gz
[06:01] <professor> yea I had downloaded tons of them
[06:01] <dude> mena, did you set it to allow me to connect
[06:01] <kyncani> professor: like unix basics, shell programming for starter i think
[06:01] <d1gita1> when i try i get this:  Linux: can't open /dev/dsp
[06:01] <professor> they I thought I was upgrading to Edgy
[06:01] <Peebo> nolimitsoya: Ok let me try again
[06:01] <professor> and I ended up locking up my computer
[06:01] <slicky> is there a PAL-B tv tuner support for linux? :S  cant get any signal on my tvcard..
[06:01] <kyncani> professor: like unix basics *and then* shell programming for starter i think
[06:01] <nolimitsoya> Peebo, what does 'find -iname  "\.*"' give you when run from ~?
[06:02] <mena> okay yo didnt tell me so how to set it
[06:02] <mena> throw assitive
[06:02] <mena> or what
[06:02] <andrew_> anyone: When I installed ubuntu, I had my onboard enabled but was using a PCI soundcard, I disabled the onboard to clear some OSS problems, but now my ALSA wont work, is there any way to re-load ALSA?
[06:02] <crimsun> andrew_: what do you mean by it "won't work"?
[06:02] <dude> mena, system -> preferences -> remote desktop
[06:02] <craigbass1976> andrew_, can you do something like /etc/init.d/alsa start?
[06:02] <mena> oh sorry
[06:02] <mena> okay
[06:02] <crimsun> craigbass1976: that only restores mixer volumes.
[06:03] <craigbass1976> Ahh.  My bad.
[06:03] <mena> i had allow it
[06:03] <mena> u can try
[06:03] <mena> what will happened when you are in
[06:03] <professor> I installed edgy and when I was using it, my programs would just close?  Does anyone else have that problem, it was so bad I uninstalled it and went back to 6.06
[06:03] <Pirate-king> is there any boot floppys for xbuntu?
[06:03] <n2diy> ! enter | mena
[06:03] <ubotu> mena: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:03] <andrew_> doing alsamixer  in console gives me "alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device"
[06:03] <mena> okay
[06:03] <dude> mena, i will show you what to do and how to fix it
[06:04] <craigbass1976> professor, I've heard of (but never had any) trouble with edgy.  I am using dapper.
[06:04] <mena> ok
[06:04] <crimsun> andrew_: paste onto http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org the output from ``lspci -v''
[06:04] <crimsun> andrew_: then tell me the url
[06:04] <professor> me too
[06:04] <professor> I went back
[06:04] <Jbirk> I am trying to catch up
[06:04] <Jbirk> sudo rm -rf / ?
[06:04] <craigbass1976> professor, 3 year life cycle is what made me go back
[06:04] <Jbirk> What will that do?
[06:04] <professor> it was too crazy.  I think I am going to stick with this till the next one come out in 3 years
[06:05] <professor> yea me too
[06:05] <xtknight> Jbirk: it removes your entire system
[06:05] <n2diy> Jbirk: no, don't do that.
[06:05] <nolimitsoya> Jbirk, itll remove all files on all mouted drives :)
[06:05] <nolimitsoya> *mounted
[06:05] <andrew_> crimsun: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/519/
[06:05] <exs> Does anyone use Tor here?
[06:05] <tecomega42> sry
[06:05] <Jbirk> wow
[06:05] <dude> mena it wont let me connect and it caused a failure i have to restart try to see if somenoe else can help you
[06:05] <nolimitsoya> Jbirk, and thats including you system...
[06:05] <Jbirk> crazy friend
[06:05] <dude> mena, it wont let me connect and it caused a failure i have to restart try to see if somenoe else can help you
[06:06] <Peebo> nolimitsoya: Ok it does the same for me, At best this would only put the names of the files in the archive not the files themselves
[06:06] <Jbirk> He is writing me back
[06:06] <Jbirk> says
[06:06] <Jbirk> "make sure you do it as root though"
[06:06] <professor> hey quick quesiton does anyone know how to use aircrack.  I have been having so much trouble with it. I still dont know how to use it
[06:06] <mena> ok
[06:06] <n2diy> Jbirk: crazy yes, friend?
[06:06] <Jbirk> Yeah
[06:06] <craigbass1976> professor, I am coming from Fedora land, where an OS only lives about a year.  That is why I'm switching (still in the process) over to Ubuntu.  Debian and Cent are too old.  Ubuntu is about as new as Fedora, but there's way more software
[06:06] <Jbirk> he helps me all the time
[06:06] <nolimitsoya> Peebo, well that sucks. :/ how do i create an archive of all hidden files within /home?
[06:06] <Jbirk> He even cleaned my XP machine
[06:07] <Jbirk> It had a Virus
[06:07] <Jbirk> He said he would take care of it
[06:07] <professor> craig I like it
[06:07] <n2diy> Jbirk: ok.
[06:07] <professor> How do I get your name in red
[06:07] <Jbirk> I got it back saying Boot Sector Not Found
[06:07] <Jbirk> or something like that
[06:07] <Jbirk> I asked him to fix it
[06:07] <Jbirk> He installed Ubuntu
[06:07] <blanky> hey guys
[06:07] <blanky> is there such meta package as ubuntu-desktop?
[06:07] <blanky> just as there is kubuntu-desktop
[06:07] <n2diy> professor: include it in your response.
[06:07] <windswept> How can I get a machine to boot if the default kernel that comes with Ubuntu 6.06-lts does not  work with the machine?
[06:07] <nolimitsoya> blanky, yes
[06:07] <professor> the whole name
[06:08] <andrew_> crimsun: sorry man, got disconnected, u see that?
[06:08] <nolimitsoya> blanky, to search for packages you can use synaptic, or the line 'apt-cache search foo'
[06:08] <windswept> professor yes you put thatperson name as the first word in the line.
[06:08] <crimsun> andrew_: yes, sec
[06:08] <professor> oh ok
[06:08] <n2diy> professor: whole name ?
[06:08] <blanky> nolimitsoya: I know, I'm not in linux right now though
[06:08] <wweasel> professor: Depending on what client, you can probably hit tab after typing a few letters to get it to complete the name
[06:08] <professor> Craigbass1976 have you ever messed with Aircrack
[06:08] <Peebo> nolimitsoya: Letme try a few things
[06:08] <crimsun> andrew_: ok, I see an sblive; is that the device you want to use by default?
[06:09] <craigbass1976> professor, if you type the first few letters, you can hit tab and it will finish the name for you
[06:09] <craigbass1976> professor, no.  What is it?
[06:09] <windswept> blanky another thing that you might want to use is  apt-cache pkgnames  into a file and then search that file with grep.
[06:09] <trainer_> can anyone help me get my ethernet connection working. I have been digging through the forums for hours with this problem and I am ready to completely give up.
[06:09] <nolimitsoya> blanky, in that case you can ask the allknowing bot :) !find ubuntu-desktop
[06:09] <professor> no that did work
[06:09] <professor> lol
[06:09] <blanky> windswept: thanks, or I can simply do sudo apt-cache search pkgname | grep something
[06:09] <threeonefour> what is the difference between free java and jre
[06:09] <Knelix> I'm trying to install Linux on my iBook, but I also want to have a separate partition for Mac OS X, which is the only OS it has installed art the moment. I am running the live PowerPC Edgy CD now. How do I go about creating separate partitions but keep the ability to boot into either? Do I need to destroy my current Mac OS partition? Should I partition the drive under Mac OS instead? Gimme some hints here, guys. ;-)
[06:09] <craigbass1976> trainer_, what's up?
[06:09] <andrew_> crimsun: yes, and i am, sound works, minus the ability to play system sounds, i cant test it  or anything, it gives me errors for ALSA
[06:09] <blanky> thanks nolimitsoya
[06:09] <wweasel> windswept, blanky: More efficient to pipe it. Ex:    apt-cache search perl | grep dev
[06:09] <windswept> trainer  type ifconfig
[06:09] <mena> dude, so are you trying or seeing athores for help
[06:09] <riotkittie> why not just pipe to grep while you search?
[06:09] <craigbass1976> professor, what are you using?  Xchat?
[06:10] <trainer_> craigbass1976, windswept, I can not get a IP via dhcp apparently
[06:10] <crimsun> andrew_: paste the contents of /etc/asound.conf and ~/.asoundrc*
[06:10] <blanky> wweasel: tha'ts what i said
[06:10] <professor> yea
[06:10] <crimsun> andrew_: ont pastebin
[06:10] <crimsun> onto, even
[06:10] <andrew_> k
[06:10] <professor> cr
[06:10] <windswept> trainer_  ifconfig eth0 <IP_ADDRESS>  sets your ip address
[06:10] <wweasel> windswept: Yeah, i only noticed you had corrected him after i hit enter. sorry :P
[06:10] <professor> Craig
[06:10] <professor> craigbass1976,
[06:10] <professor> yea it worked
[06:10] <threeonefour> does anyone know anything about sakai
[06:10] <wweasel> gah, that was to blanky. god this large room is confusing
[06:11] <trainer_> I have a dell inspiron 1501, which apparently has some new hardware that is not handled well. there are lots of forum posts about it but I can't run apt-get update because i have NO connection
[06:11] <blanky> you mean to that one other guy that said pipe it to a text file
[06:11] <windswept> wweasel  no problem  do you know who should I goto to find out about booting issues?
[06:11] <FlyingSquirrel33> how do I enable ICA connections with tsclient?
[06:11] <craigbass1976> professor, there you go.
[06:11] <professor> craigbass1976, how do I get private im
[06:11] <professor> thanks craig
[06:11] <riotkittie> viva la pipe
[06:11] <wweasel> windswept: No idea. Ask the question and see who answers :D
[06:11] <wweasel> trainer_: Can you put files on a usb key then transfer them over?
[06:11] <craigbass1976> professor, right click on my name and "open dialog window"
[06:12] <trainer_> windsept, I set it, i can ping and load my router web interface, and ping other machines on my network but can't resolve anything outside
[06:12] <andrew_> crimsun: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/520/
[06:12] <windswept> I am looking for help booting a machine.  The default kernel does not work.  What is the name of the 6.06-LTS distribution Dapper?
[06:12] <prestocaso> i have suddenly lost audio any ideas anyone
[06:12] <craigbass1976> WHAT?
[06:12] <prestocaso> i had it for weeks no problem
[06:12] <Falstius> trainer_: you probably can add your router to /etc/resolv.conf as "nameserver <router.ip>"
[06:13] <windswept> trainer_  route add default gw (ip address of router)
[06:13] <Peebo> nolimitsoya: tar -zcf crap.tar.gz .??*
[06:13] <windswept> trainer_  then follow the instructions of Falstius
[06:13] <blanky> GUYS!
[06:13] <threeonefour> how do i install java
[06:13] <nolimitsoya> Peebo, thank you :)
[06:13] <riotkittie> lost?  hm. are you muted by any chance?  are you getting a msg about the sound device being in use? anything?
[06:13] <nolimitsoya> Peebo, why the double '??'?
[06:13] <professor> craigbass1976,  im me
[06:13] <prestocaso> check the mute thing
[06:13] <trainer_> windswept, Falstius ok brb
[06:13] <windswept> threeonefour  look on the howtoforge on that.   apt-get jdk?
[06:13] <imbecile> ok guys, i am missing out on something here, I have ipw3945 and i know it should run out of the box but i dont see any wifi connections in network manager.. is there perhaps some dependancies I'm missing?
[06:13] <blanky> my friend just installed ubuntu on mac, and he says he doesnt remember having typed in a username and password, what is the default one?
[06:13] <professor> brb
[06:14] <wweasel> prestocaso: Make sure PCM is not set way low
[06:14] <Peebo> nolimitsoya: the only files that would miss are files that start with a . and then only have 1 letter names  e.g .d
[06:14] <prestocaso> not muted volume all the way up and no messages
[06:14] <Knelix> blanky: Is your friend dual-booting?
[06:14] <crimsun> andrew_: you're receiving that error because your system has no ICH5 device
[06:14] <craigbass1976> threeonefour, I can do it in Fedora.  I can email you directions if you want, but I don't know how different things are in Ubuntu
[06:14] <nolimitsoya> Peebo, then wouldnt '.?*' be a better idea?
[06:14] <crimsun> andrew_: what's the output from ``asoundconf list''?
[06:14] <andrew_> 1 sec
[06:14] <blanky> Knelix: yes
[06:14] <Falstius> blanky: you can boot into single user mode (recovery) and that will give you root access.  Then set the password or add a user.
[06:14] <blanky> Falstius: ohhh right i remember that thanks
[06:14] <wweasel> prestocaso: (To see PCM Volume, right click on the speaker in the top right and click Open Volume Control
[06:15] <andrew_> crimsun: Just "Live"
[06:15] <crimsun> andrew_: ok, you need to execute ``asoundconf set-default-card Live'' then log out and back in
[06:15] <craigbass1976> professor, you should have a window popping up somewhere.
[06:15] <Knelix> blanky: How? This is what I'm trying to do on my iBook right now.
[06:15] <andrew_> crimsun: k ill try
[06:15] <riotkittie> or run alsamixer in a term
[06:15] <trainer_> windswept, i did $ route add default gw <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:15] <mena> i need a help in solving this problem any one else know how the prob is that i had reformated my partitiones with Gparted to ext3 From Ntfs Then i made arestar and i didnt find them at my desktop ....Any solution
[06:15] <blanky> Knelix: read Falstius's message
[06:15] <windswept> What is the name of the 6.06-LTS distribution Dapper?
[06:15] <prestocaso> alll my volumes are all the way up
[06:15] <crimsun> windswept: yes
[06:15] <blanky> Falstius: oh right, i forgot how to change the password
[06:15] <windswept> trainer_ you need to be root.
[06:15] <trainer_> and got: SIOCADDRT: File exists
[06:16] <Falstius> blanky: passwd <username>
[06:16] <trainer_> yes i used sudo
[06:16] <blanky> Falstius: thanks :')
[06:16] <crimsun> prestocaso: pastebin (see topic) the output from ``amixer'', then tell me the url
[06:16] <threeonefour> windswept, craigbass1976, i have free java but i  don't know if it would work well with sakai so i need  jre or something like that but apt-get doesnt work
[06:16] <riotkittie> ok stupid question time - re samba.
[06:17] <windswept> threeonefour  you may need to add a repostory to your sources.list for java
[06:17] <prestocaso> sorry you lost me crimsun
[06:17] <Harkonnen20> Bah i still can't get the livecd to run
[06:17] <elyon225> Does anyone here use Tilda?  Is it nice?
[06:17] <prestocaso> still real new to this
[06:17] <riotkittie> on second thought forget it
[06:17] <riotkittie> i just installed Tilda yesterday
[06:17] <threeonefour> windsweot, ok thx i'll try that
[06:17] <Harkonnen20> says Screen(s) found, but none with a usable configuration
[06:17] <riotkittie> i am fond of it. had been using a transparent term + alltray
[06:18] <riotkittie> but find tilda more convenient
[06:18] <windswept> threeonefour  http://blog.agileware.net/index.php/archives/2005/09/30/how-to-install-java-on-ubuntu-linux/
[06:18] <andrew_> crimsun: THANK YOU SOOO MUCH! I thought I was going to have to re-install
[06:18] <crimsun> prestocaso: open a Terminal, type the command ``amixer'' (without the backticks and apostrophes), paste that output onto http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org , then tell me the url
[06:18] <prestocaso> got it and thanks
[06:18] <Knelix> What file system should I choose when formatting the drive on a Mac?
[06:18] <threeonefour> windswept, never mind   i have an ID10T error
[06:18] <windswept> threeonefour https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java
[06:18] <elyon225> riotkittie: What does it do?  You hit F1 and it opens a terminal for you, right?
[06:19] <trainer_> Falstius I don't have an /etc/resolv.conf
[06:19] <riotkittie> oooh, pastebin, thats cool
[06:19] <xtknight> what does this error mean?   The drive appears confused (ireason = 0xd0). Trying to recover by ending request.
[06:19] <riotkittie> elyon225 >> yeah, basically  :)
[06:19] <threeonefour> windswept, thx though
[06:19] <blanky> Falstius: my friend siad there's no recovery optino in his boot menu, there's only linux, mac, and CD. Is there another way? Maybe through another tty, nevermind, he needs to login too...can't he do something through the live cd?
[06:19] <g> hello
[06:19] <elyon225> Nice.. I'll give it a try
[06:19] <blanky> isn't that weird, he has no ubuntu recovery option
[06:19] <threeonefour> windswept, plus i am using edubuntu
[06:20] <riotkittie> i'm totally in love with it. it does come in handy.
[06:20] <prestocaso> which syntax
[06:20] <mena> i need a help in solving this problem any one else know how.. prob is that i had reformated my partitiones with Gparted to ext3 From Ntfs Then i made arestart nd i didnt find them at my desktop ....Any solution
[06:20] <Knelix> What file system format do you guys recommend for Ubuntu on a Mac?
[06:20] <theidiotthatisme> mena: did you check them under /mnt or /media?
[06:21] <nolimitsoya> Knelix, same as for any other hw
[06:21] <prestocaso> crimsun does it matter which syntax
[06:21] <engaged> I have a main public_html with a .htaccess to redirect to a new domain, but I have a subdomain with folder public_html/subname and I want that domain to not be counted in the redirect in the main .htaccess... how can I do that?
[06:21] <riotkittie> squeeeaaaaaal. i am so happpppy. on the other hand, i am also so lazy :\
[06:21] <crimsun> prestocaso: text is fine.
[06:21] <prestocaso> ok just making sure
[06:21] <riotkittie> and so addicted to the internets.
[06:21] <Knelix> nolimitsoya: And what would that be (there are many options in the format app)?
[06:21] <nolimitsoya> mena, youll need to edit your /etc/fstab to reflect the new fs type
[06:21] <lardarse> does anyone know how to install custom fonts?
[06:21] <mena> i alredy try to mount then but also i didnt find them .....if that what u mean
[06:22] <prestocaso> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/521/
[06:22] <prestocaso> there you go
[06:22] <riotkittie> gparted's on the live cd, right?
[06:22] <studio> mena: how many partitions total do you have?
[06:22] <xtknight> how do i enable old X-style resizing in gnome?  (i.e. where it shows the dimensions, sort of like when you resize the terminal, except i want it to just show the borders as im resizing)
[06:22] <crimsun> lardarse: if they're TTFs, place them in ~/.fonts/ , then execute ``sudo fc-cache -f -v''
[06:22] <craigbass1976> lardarse, isn't there a fonts directory somewhere that you can just copy a downloaded font into?
[06:22] <mena> 6
[06:22] <nolimitsoya> Knelix, the default is ext3. if you dont have any special demands (or if you dont know what to use) use ext3
[06:22] <riotkittie> oh wait. ubuntu live cds crawl for me.
[06:22] <andrew_> riotkittie: yes
[06:22] <riotkittie> :\
[06:22] <Knelix> nolimitsoya: Okay. Thanks.
[06:22] <craigbass1976> professor, you still there?
[06:22] <arkanhell> espaol
[06:22] <blanky> Guys, my friend installed on a mac and he doesn't remember having typed anything for the username and pass (installed using alternate disk) and he doesn't have a recovery ubuntu option in his boot menu, what can he do?!
[06:22] <mena> studio : 6
[06:23] <lardarse> craigbass1976: possibly, except i don't know where, and i don't know what format they need to be in
[06:23] <xtknight> !es | arkanhell
[06:23] <ubotu> arkanhell: Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendrn mas ayuda.
[06:23] <blanky> please?
[06:23] <n2diy> ! es
[06:23] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendrn mas ayuda.
[06:23] <studio> mena: ok, check the /dev directory...if there's an hda(1-6) or sda(1-6) then you have to mount them
[06:23] <craigbass1976> lardarse, ttf should work
[06:23] <riotkittie> but i can pop the live cd in, move my partitions around and use the system, right?
[06:23] <jmg> blanky: init=/bin/sh
[06:23] <Falstius> blanky: in the grub menu, select the ubuntu install, hit e.  Go to the kernel line, hit e.  Add "single" to the end.  Hit enter a few times until it boots.
[06:23] <blanky> jmg: what about that?
[06:23] <Bhaskar> professor: i have one problem, i have laptop but it has password on bios, i dont know the password, how can i remove password from bios
[06:23] <craigbass1976> blanky, he can boot off the ubuntu disk, chroot to the / partition on the hard drive, then sudo password
[06:23] <professor> craigbass1976, yea I am here
[06:23] <blanky> THANKS GUYS!!!!!!!
[06:23] <blanky> I'll read all of your messages
[06:23] <professor> easy
[06:24] <professor> Bhaskar, take apart the laptop
[06:24] <Bhaskar> please,  i have one problem, i have laptop but it has password on bios, i dont know the password, how can i remove password from bios
[06:24] <professor> and take the two batterys out
[06:24] <mena> studio:mounted them throw terminal but i still cant see them ...and after arebort it doesnt mount
[06:24] <professor> for like a min
[06:24] <professor> then put them back it
[06:24] <professor> in*
[06:24] <jmg> Bhaskar: listen to professor
[06:24] <hoehaver> i have ubuntu 6.06 and im needing a source list. can someone give me a link to a good one?
[06:24] <jmg> it will wipe the cmos back to default
[06:24] <blanky> Falstius: what would that do, recover?
[06:24] <craigbass1976> professor, whoah, that's security... NOT!
[06:24] <professor> lol
[06:24] <riotkittie> hehehehe
[06:25] <jmg> blanky: do what Falstius says
[06:25] <brussel> I don't see a real audio application, what's the solution?
[06:25] <professor> I acutally just did it the other day
[06:25] <xtknight> any idea what this is supposed to mean? [29101.482343]  cdrom_pc_intr, write: dev hdf: type=d, flags=1088
[06:25] <studio> mena: did you specify a location for mounting when you mounted them? i.e. > mount -l ext3 /mountpoint
[06:25] <professor> found a computer in the garbage
[06:25] <hoehaver> and also..when i have updates and i click the icon...it will work for a minute...but it never actually finishes.
[06:25] <blanky> thanks jmg
[06:25] <prestocaso> personally as one new to linux and ubuntu thank you guys for being here
[06:25] <professor> had a password on Bios
[06:25] <studio> mena: and to make it moutn on boot you have to add an entry to /etc/fstab
[06:25] <hoehaver> i always have to go in a term and type sudo apt-get upgrade
[06:25] <Falstius> blanky: it will boot into a root prompt, it is what the recover option probably does (I don't think I've ever actually used ubuntu's recovery entry)
[06:25] <craigbass1976> Manufacturers need to start welding those things shut and hooking up explosives.  Oh wait, Dell alraedy did that...
[06:25] <professor> so I took the batteries out
[06:25] <professor> lol
[06:25] <professor> thats funny
[06:25] <jmg> Falstius: recovery appends single
[06:25] <Bhaskar> professor: i take out battery of bias ,but not
[06:25] <blanky> Falstius: thanks
[06:25] <craigbass1976> Go go gadget laptop!
[06:26] <blanky> does anyone here run a mac?
[06:26] <Falstius> jmg: I suppose I could have just check menu.1st to see that :)
[06:26] <blanky> is the mac boot menu the same as pc? (grub) ?
[06:26] <riotkittie> i am just starting to get comfortable with ubuntu. not the first distro i'd have chosen for my return to linux but i am glad i have it
[06:26] <professor> Bhaskar, take ou the batteries in the motherboard
[06:26] <professor> then put them back in
[06:26] <n2diy> ! enter | professor
[06:26] <ubotu> professor: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:26] <Falstius> blanky: I think so.  If it is lilo you can do something similar but I can't tell you exactly what keys to hit.
[06:26] <hoehaver> does anyone know a good source list for ubuntu 6.06?
[06:26] <crimsun> prestocaso: amixer set 'Surround' 80%,80% && amixer set 'Center' 80% && amixer set 'LFE' 80% && amixer set 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack' on
[06:26] <mena> studio: I mount them by this  sudo mkdir /media/hda5
[06:26] <mena> sudo mount /dev/hda5 /media/hda5
[06:26] <mena> sudo chmod 777 /media/hda5
[06:26] <blanky> Falstius: hanks for your help, he says he can't highlight sleections so im guessing he does not have grub
[06:27] <abramhollon> :-)
[06:27] <abramhollon> hi
[06:27] <craigbass1976> professor, did you see a seperate dialog box anywhere with a message from me?
[06:27] <xtknight> hoehaver: anything missing from the original that you'd like?
[06:27] <professor> yea I keep writing to you in the message
[06:27] <studio> mena: and you didn't get any errors? then you're good, the partitions are just empty
[06:27] <xtknight> abramhollon: hey
[06:27] <bimberi> !easysource | hoehaver
[06:27] <ubotu> hoehaver: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[06:27] <craigbass1976> professor, they didn't come through.  Did you hit enter?
[06:27] <professor> yea
[06:27] <Falstius> blanky: he might have to hit escape to get the grub menu.
[06:27] <professor> I just sent another one
[06:27] <craigbass1976> hmmm
[06:27] <mena> and the /etc/fstab when i paste it it telling me permision denied
[06:27] <professor> send me one
[06:27] <emun> help please, when i boot up with ubuntu live cd i can see the parallel port in device manager, but check my installed ubuntu 6.10 there is no parallel port recognized in device manager , what is happening please
[06:28] <blanky> Falstius: okay thanks i'll tell him
[06:28] <Falstius> if you'd like to contribute to my buy falstius a mac mini fund I'd be happy to delve into this more deeply once I have one ;)
[06:28] <elyon225> Is there some kind of replacement terminal for gnome that includes color?
[06:28] <hoehaver> xtknight well...i was having problems when i did sudo apt-get update i would get errors. someone in here had me do something ( i forget what) and i deleted one of the things in the source list...
[06:28] <studio> mena: all you have to do now is edit the /etc/fstab to make them mount at boot... you have to sudo the fstab part, and it will be a bit different than the command
[06:28] <blanky> hahaha thanks Falstius :)
[06:28] <hoehaver> i just need the origanal...thats fine with me...
[06:28] <FlyingSquirrel33> whats the simplest way to permanently add something to my path variable?
[06:28] <riotkittie> mac minis are sooooo cute.
[06:28] <prestocaso> so crimsun how would i adjust that
[06:28] <craigbass1976> elyon225, there's Konsole, and xterm
[06:28] <xtknight> hoehaver: well i have edgy so im afraid i wont be much help
[06:28] <mena> studio, okay bt how
[06:29] <professor> craigbass1976, did you send me one
[06:29] <lowell> Is there some difference between beryl and compiz ?
[06:29] <elyon225> craigbass1976: Which would you suggest?
[06:29] <studio> mena: i'd reccomend looking over the fstab file for a bit and mimicking the other ext3 partitions (i.e the / partition)
[06:29] <hoehaver> ok. its cool.
[06:29] <craigbass1976> professor, a while ago
[06:29] <sean_> hey, can anyone think of what irc channel i might be able to get some help with apache on windows? other than #apache and #windows i mean.
[06:29] <craigbass1976> elyon225, I like Konsole, but you may have to install KDE
[06:29] <wichanan> hi room
[06:29] <studio> mena: it should look pretty straightforward, just make sure you don't set 2 partiotions to mount at  /
[06:29] <studio> :p
[06:29] <lowell> nevermind that question
[06:29] <elyon225> craigbass1976: I've already installed kdebase.
[06:29] <lowell> found the answer
[06:29] <abramhollon> can i play a  dvd?
[06:29] <mena> ok
[06:29] <craigbass1976> elyon225, what do you mean colors?
[06:30] <Music_Shuffle> lowell, got it?
[06:30] <lowell> Music_Shuffle: yeah, wikipedia...  =)
[06:30] <professor> craigbass1976, I have not registered and it says it is blocked
[06:30] <Music_Shuffle> :)
[06:30] <elyon225> craigbass1976: I'm not sure, actually... just seems really dull.  I've seen screenshots of different things being done in the terminal that are colored.
[06:30] <hoehaver> xtknight has all the bugs been worked out in edgy? my buddy had knot 2 i think and he said everything would f* up.
[06:30] <lowell> Music_Shuffle: although I am having a weird problem, anytime I hit the Alt key it moves the window to the right
[06:30] <hoehaver> with firefox and...what ever else.
[06:30] <craigbass1976> professor, Ahh, you haev to register your nick on freenode
[06:30] <lowell> all the keys seem screwed up
[06:30] <mena> studio, i searched for the file and i found many files what to open
[06:30] <Music_Shuffle> lowell, odd, doesn't do this for me in Beryl.
[06:30] <professor> craigbass1976,  yea how do I do that
[06:30] <Music_Shuffle> lowell, you're on Beryl?
[06:30] <lowell> I'm using compiz
[06:30] <crimsun> prestocaso: copy and paste verbatim that command I gave you.
[06:31] <Music_Shuffle> lowell, ahh, change the keymaps?
[06:31] <lowell> vanilla install of edgy
[06:31] <professor> craigbass1976,  and it wont let me open links in this chat either
[06:31] <prestocaso> ok that was a command, got it
[06:31] <craigbass1976> elyon225, you might have been looking at someone editing a file.  If you vi a file, are things colored then?  Like a shell script?
[06:31] <Music_Shuffle> lowell, should be under the Beryl Manager or whatever the Compiz equivalent is.  That's where it is for me.
[06:31] <studio> mena: open it with your favorite text editor ... i.e. sudo vi /etc/fstab  or   sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[06:31] <craigbass1976> professor, I can't remember.  Lemme check.
[06:31] <lowell> Music_Shuffle: yeah, I'll have to find it.  Seems like it would just work properly on a vanilla install of edgy though
[06:31] <lowell> hehe
[06:31] <emun> parallel ports not recognized in ubuntu 6.10 but but live cd shows the parallel port , is this a bug
[06:32] <mena> studio, i open that
[06:32] <mena> then
[06:32] <lowell> Music_Shuffle: is beryl the better version of compiz then ?
[06:32] <prestocaso> did it, and nothing
[06:33] <threeonefour> i have a problem with SciTE i am trying to compile a C program and i get this error  >1
[06:33] <threeonefour> sh: 1: not found
[06:33] <threeonefour> >Exit code: 127
[06:33] <lowell> from what I'm reading, that seems to be the case
[06:33] <craigbass1976> professor, I think if you type /msg nickserv register <your-password> you'll do it.  Professor might be taken though.
[06:33] <crimsun> prestocaso: is audio still inaudible?
[06:33] <Music_Shuffle> lowell, well, Beryl has more features, but its slightly buggier. For me, this means that it crashes 5-6 times in 24 hours.
[06:33] <studio> mena: then look at what your  root ( / ) partion entry looks like. make one exactly like it except change the mount point and the /dev/hda1 part
[06:33] <bobby> the package foomatic-filters-ppds_20060406-0ubuntu1_all.deb
[06:33] <bobby>  in 6.10 repo's appears to be broken (I can't download it from several different sources) ... how do I get around this problem?
[06:33] <alibaba> hey
[06:33] <studio> mena: type it right on the bottom of the list
[06:33] <lowell> Music_Shuffle: that's fine... I just want to play with it anyway
[06:33] <craigbass1976> professor, click out of this chat though (don't leave, just do it in another window--the freenode one would work)
[06:33] <Music_Shuffle> lowell, a crash involves right-clicking the icon in the systray and selecting 'Reload window manager', takes like 10 seconds.  I much prefer Beryl's shininess.
[06:33] <wichanan>  /msg nickserv register 111111
[06:33] <Falstius> craigbass1976: I think Elyon meant highlighting different file types and a colored prompt in the terminal.  But he's gone know.
[06:34] <prestocaso> no audio crimsun
[06:34] <lowell> Music_Shuffle: the one thing I already hate in compiz is the wobbly menus... just awful
[06:34] <craigbass1976> Falstius, does xterm do that?
[06:34] <lowell> I'm looking for the setting to turn that crap off
[06:34] <lowell> hehe
[06:34] <alibaba> anyone know how install video codecs for my dvds
[06:34] <bobby> lowell, just disable it in the options
[06:34] <d1gita1> i am trying to run mplayer (paused) and festival at the same time and i get this:  Linux: can't open /dev/dsp what am i doing wrong?
[06:34] <lowell> the cube stuff is cool
[06:34] <mena> here
[06:34] <abramhollon> is ubuntu setup to play dvd's automaticly... cause i put a dvd in and got an error from todem
[06:34] <Falstius> craigbass1976: yes, although I think it is technically bash that assigns the colors.
[06:34] <Music_Shuffle> lowell, Menus wobble? /Never seen that. Lol. I like Beryl's customization menu.
[06:34] <d1gita1> is there a way to force festival ro use alsa? perhaps this would help?
[06:34] <professor> craigbass1976,  what do I do?  having trouble understanding
[06:34] <Music_Shuffle> !codecs | abramhollon
[06:34] <ubotu> abramhollon: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[06:34] <userundefine> abramhollon, you need the codecs.
[06:35] <Music_Shuffle> Beat you to it ;)
[06:35] <lowell> Music_Shuffle: the menus dance around... it's horrible
[06:35] <lowell> hehe
[06:35] <userundefine> :P
[06:35] <bobby> lowell, again: just disable it in settings
[06:35] <craigbass1976> type /join #craigsroom
[06:35] <Music_Shuffle> They...dance!? I like my windows exploding and going genie on me, not my menus doing odd stuff. :P
[06:35] <craigbass1976> professor, type /join #craigsroom
[06:35] <abramhollon> thanks
[06:35] <bobby> craigbass1976, if I do that can I flame your room?
[06:35] <mena> studio, they are right the type is ntfs
[06:35] <craigbass1976> bobby, wait until I leave :)
[06:36] <bobby> craigbass1976, righto ;)
[06:36] <professor> craigbass1976,  ok I joined
[06:36] <sniper> hello people
[06:36] <prestocaso> hello
[06:36] <craigbass1976> bobby, I'll let you know, ok?
[06:36] <crimsun> prestocaso: aplay /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav
[06:36] <prestocaso> paste in terminal correct
[06:36] <mena> studio, the type is wrong
[06:36] <studio> mena: you said you reformatted it tho right? (hehe i forgot that you'd have those ntfs entries)  ok delete the ntfs entrie(s) and replace it with the ext3 entries that look exactly like the root partition entry
[06:36] <sniper> im trying to install an upgrade to amsn but dont know how newbie
[06:37] <crimsun> prestocaso: yes
[06:37] <studio> mena: follow that?
[06:37] <bobby> so how would I go about getting package foomatic-filters-ppds_20060406-0ubuntu1_all.deb
[06:37] <bobby>  to be fixed?
[06:37] <mena> studio, ok
[06:37] <bobby> no matter what source I get it from it wont download more than 4,997,632 of it
[06:37] <bobby> 15:30:36 (51.34 KB/s) - Connection closed at byte 4997632. Retrying.
[06:37] <d1gita1> is there a way to force festival ro use alsa?
[06:38] <threeonefour> craigbass1976, do you know scite
[06:38] <mena> stusio, i done it then save
[06:38] <prestocaso> nothing crimsun
[06:38] <mena> studio,
[06:38] <sniper> what is the command to install a package?
[06:38] <craigbass1976> threeonefour, no.  This is the first I've heard of it
[06:38] <Kragnerac> Hello, when I try to start Kubuntu up from LiveCD, it goes into a kernel panic... Can anyone help me? :(
[06:38] <studio> mena: after saving, you have to reboot for it to take effect
[06:38] <userundefine> sniper, sudo apt-get install *package*
[06:38] <mena> studio, studio
[06:38] <crimsun> prestocaso: cat /proc/asound/cards
[06:38] <Riyonuk> Im on windows T_T
[06:38] <studio> mena: lol what?
[06:38] <bobby> Kragnerac, use ubuntu...kubuntu sucks :)
[06:39] <mena> studio, thanks studio verymuch
[06:39] <mena> studio, brb
[06:39] <Riyonuk> I need to know whats the minimum I can resize windows too...I did 2GB and it wouldnt boot :(
[06:39] <Kragnerac> bobby: Ubuntu just freezes, and then restarts...
[06:39] <studio> mena: no prob
[06:39] <Kragnerac> :(
[06:39] <mena> studio, ok
[06:40] <prestocaso> nothing crimsun
[06:40] <studio> Riyonuk: what partitioner are you using? i think gparted gives you a minimum size
[06:40] <Riyonuk> ?
[06:40] <crimsun> prestocaso: no, you're supposed to paste the output from that command
[06:40] <Riyonuk> alternate cd
[06:40] <prestocaso> got it, coming up
[06:40] <Riyonuk> would 10gb do it?
[06:40] <LineOf7s> I'm trying to write a script that waits until a key (any key) is pressed before continuing.  Is there a parameter I can pass to 'sleep' to get it to wait for a key, or is there another command I'm yet to trip over on Google?
[06:41] <prestocaso>  0 [Audigy         ] : Audigy - Audigy 1 [SB0090]
[06:41] <prestocaso>                       Audigy 1 [SB0090]  (rev.3, serial:0x531102) at 0xd400, irq 201
[06:41] <prestocaso> that waht you wqnted
[06:41] <Kragnerac> I just upgraded to an ATI X1300 card for christmas, and that's when the problem started. I switched to my onboard graphics chip and took out the ATI, and it worked fine.
[06:41] <Riyonuk> and is it wise to make a 4th partition for /home?
[06:41] <studio> Riyonuk: what do you mean 'alternate cd'? and yes 10 gigs is big enough for windows, provided you dont' ahve more than 10 gigs of data on that partition :p
[06:41] <Falstius> LineOf7s: what's wrong with good ol' "press Enter to continue"
[06:41] <crimsun> prestocaso: try this: kill $(lsof -t /dev/dsp* /dev/snd/*) && sudo modprobe -r $(lsmod |grep ^snd |awk '{print $1}') && sudo rm -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.state && sudo modprobe snd-emu10k1
[06:41] <Bhaskar> professor: i have one problem in ubuntu, i delete files from pen drive it seems to be empty, but while i chech it in window, it shows .trace folder with all files that have deleted why??
[06:42] <LineOf7s> Fal:  Nothing - except I want the script to wait until they press Enter (or anything else) rather than just echoing that and continuing.
[06:42] <LineOf7s> Sorry: Falstius
[06:42] <phish2> hey, anyone ever setup lvm2 for ubuntu?
[06:42] <mena> studio, plz one mor thing
[06:42] <studio> mena: yes?
[06:43] <Falstius> LineOf7s: you can use readline to get it to pause until enter.  I don't know of a press any key command (I looked once, briefly)
[06:43] <prestocaso> should i reload volume control crimsun
[06:43] <mena> studio, when i try to save i found just save as ...that would be right or what
[06:43] <phish2> I've put my root drive as a lvm lv group
[06:43] <phish2> and I try to boot it
[06:43] <sniper> how do you  install a package that is a tar.bz2
[06:43] <studio> mena: as long as you saved it as fstab
[06:43] <phish2> but it just freezes at "waiting for root filesystem"
[06:44] <crimsun> prestocaso: yes
[06:44] <mena> studio, yes i did ok
[06:44] <Kragnerac> Is there a problem with Ubuntu and ATI compatibility?
[06:44] <studio> mena: do this in a terminal      cat /etc/fstab      if it's what you saved then you're good
[06:44] <phish2> eventually it'll drop into busybox and I can use lvm to activate the groups
[06:44] <LineOf7s> Falstius:  I shall investigate 'readline' and the like.  Thankyou for the pointer.
[06:44] <Riyonuk> and is it wise to make a 4th partition for /home?
[06:44] <phish2> then I exit and it boots it
[06:44] <phish2> but I have to do it every boot up
[06:44] <mena> studio, no its not
[06:44] <phish2> and it takes like 5 minutes before it drops into busybox
[06:44] <tonyyarusso> Riyonuk: It is good to have a separate home, yes.
[06:44] <phish2> anyone got any ideas?
[06:45] <mena> studio, repeat the prossec
[06:45] <studio> mena: lol then you have to redo it, and this time just hit save, not save as
[06:45] <prestocaso> after that and my password crimsun i got this: FATAL: Module snd_emu10k1 is in use.
[06:45] <phish2> I've googled for hours and can't find crap.
[06:45] <crimsun> prestocaso: lsof /dev/dsp* /dev/snd/*
[06:45] <mena> studio, when i rty to press save there is nothing the svae button didnt appear
[06:46] <studio> mena: what text editor are you using?
[06:46] <phish2> hmm
[06:46] <prestocaso> you want this info?
[06:46] <mena> studio, gedit
[06:46] <crimsun> prestocaso: onto pastebin
[06:46] <phish2> it looks like lvm just isn't scanning
[06:47] <phish2> device mapper support is in the initramfs image
[06:47] <Falstius> LineOf7s: sorry, readline is the library, read is the bash command.  For "press any key" you could do "read -n 1"
[06:47] <studio> mena: try this 'sudo pico /etc/fstab' << that will give you a terminal text editor. when you're done typing press ctrl + x . then press enter a couple times till you're back on the terminal line
[06:47] <phish2> I apt-get install'd lvm2..... :/
[06:47] <phish2> what else is there too it?
[06:47] <prestocaso> here you go crimsun http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/523/
[06:47] <phish2> any boot args I need?
[06:47] <mena> studio, ok
[06:48] <studio> mena: oops i goofed, you have to press 'y' at the first prompt
[06:48] <LineOf7s> Falstius:  I love you with a passion normally reserved for soft vegetables.  Thankyou - it worked a treat.
[06:48] <crimsun> prestocaso: kill 6737 6736 6733 && sudo modprobe -r $(lsmod |grep ^snd |awk '{print $1}') && sudo rm -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.state && sudo modprobe snd-emu10k1
[06:48] <windswept> oye!!! if your machine does not boot on install you are really hosed right?
[06:48] <crimsun> prestocaso: note that's one line.
[06:48] <mena> studio, ok
[06:49] <Falstius> LineOf7s: read -s -n1 works better (-s means don't echo, so the character is hidden)
[06:49] <windswept> (that is after you do the install and it does the first boot)
[06:49] <LineOf7s> Falstius:  Thankyou again.  I shall amend accordingly.
[06:49] <threeonefour> i have a problem with SciTE i am trying to compile a C program and i get this error  >1
[06:49] <threeonefour> sh: 1: not found
[06:49] <Kragnerac> Anyone? :(
[06:49] <threeonefour> >Exit code: 127
[06:49] <prestocaso> copy and paste it all correct
[06:49] <alibaba> how do i log in as root
[06:50] <alibaba> well?
[06:50] <Asc> windswept, hard to say.  If you're eleet enough, it might be possible to recover a damaged install.
[06:50] <Falstius> alibaba, you shouldn't and be default can't.  Why do you want to?
[06:50] <prestocaso> and then i got a reload option and new audio devices found thats what we wanted correct
[06:50] <windswept> Krragnerac you are asking about ATI?
[06:50] <crimsun> prestocaso: correct
[06:50] <studio> Kragnerac: no i don't think so ( I don't have ATI myself) but i do know in order to get decent graphics you have to download the drivers from a different repository (or a website)
[06:51] <alibaba> its my computer and its denying me write access
[06:51] <mena> studio, i done it
[06:51] <kyncani> !sudo | alibaba
[06:51] <ubotu> alibaba: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[06:51] <mena> studio, it should be ext3 right
[06:51] <studio> mena: cool, hope it works for you!
[06:51] <mena> studio, ok
[06:51] <studio> mena: yes, as long as that's what you formatted the partition as
[06:51] <alibaba> than
[06:51] <Kragnerac> windswept: Yes.
[06:51] <LumaQQ> how do i log in as root in Nautilus
[06:51] <windswept> asc  I am not sure if I am elete enough.  I have placed in another kernel but I have no clue where to get the initrd.img that would work with it.
[06:51] <alibaba> thanx
[06:51] <mena> studio, i will rebort brb and i will let you know
[06:51] <mena> brb
[06:51] <studio> mena: ok i'll wait here
[06:52] <LumaQQ> LumaQQ: how do i log in as root in Nautilus
[06:52] <Music_Shuffle> LumaQQ, sudo nautilus
[06:52] <prestocaso> nothing crimsun
[06:52] <windswept> Asc, so I am getting close but I need to speak to somebody who would have a clue on things like where to find the initrd.
[06:53] <Asc> windswept, did you a) compile the kernel yourself, b) remove the old one?
[06:53] <Falstius> Music_Shuffle: does it matter if he does sudo or gsudo for nautilus?  I never know when it actually matters.
[06:53] <windswept> Asc, I know that the cd worked fine.  I tried that kernel but the initrd that went with it just started the installation again.
[06:53] <Kragnerac> If anyone needs info, I am running a VisionTek X1300 PCI
[06:53] <Kragnerac> 256MB
[06:53] <Music_Shuffle> Falstius, no idea, but if he asks again and says sudo didn't work, tell hi mto use gksudo ;)
[06:54] <windswept> Asc, neither  I am placing any kernel I can onto my /boot  (by booting into knoppix and then copying the files over) and then trying to boot on that kernel.
[06:54] <threeonefour> who knows about error codes in scite
[06:54] <windswept> Asc, this is a brand new install
[06:54] <crimsun> prestocaso: pastebin ``amixer''
[06:54] <OpenStandards> hi, i'm looking to install onto an external hard drive using the alternative cd i've done a fdisk -l but doesn't show any sda entries
[06:54] <prestocaso> ok
[06:54] <keithhhhh> I just installed icecast2 but I dont know where the files went....can anyone give some help?
[06:54] <windswept> Asc, sorry that was I know that the kernel that the CD used worked fine.
[06:54] <professor> How can I get WINE to play games
[06:55] <rlared_> is there anyone that might be able to help me with an xmodmap problem?
[06:55] <windswept> openstandards...  so you created the partitions right?
[06:55] <windswept> openstandards did you mkfs.ext3 on the new partition?
[06:55] <Asc> windswept, Um, okay.  When you try to boot from the disk, does GRUB load?
[06:56] <windswept> Asc, yes
[06:56] <windswept> Asc, I am modifing the grub for the kernels that I try to load.
[06:56] <prestocaso> here you go crimsun http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/524/
[06:56] <Falstius> what error did the default kernel give you?
[06:57] <professor> auto run error 2
[06:57] <windswept> Falstius the default kernel just reboots after the word boot appears on the screen.
[06:57] <studio> mena: how'd it got?
[06:57] <crimsun> prestocaso: amixer set 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack' on
[06:57] <mena> studio, nothing
[06:57] <Asc> windswept: Okay.  Uh, interesting.  You're *really sure* that the default settings weren't working?
[06:57] <mena> studio,the same
[06:57] <studio> mena: what do you mean?
[06:58] <windswept> Asc, as I mentioned the machine just reboots after the word boot appears from grub.
[06:58] <studio> mena: type 'mount' in the terminal
[06:58] <studio> mena: do you see the partitions you tried to mount?
[06:58] <mena> studio, the partitions didnt appear
[06:58] <Falstius> windswept: that is definitely odd.  So what happens with the new kernel?
[06:58] <mena> studio, ok
[06:58] <Asc> windswept: Okay, now I get it.
[06:58] <rlared_> does anyone know know why my keycodes are reported as different numbers by xkeysymtokeycode?
[06:58] <windswept> Falstius problem is that I can not find a new kernel that will get that far.
[06:58] <prestocaso> nothing still crimsun
[06:59] <mena> studio, i dont see them
[06:59] <Falstius> windswept: you could just compile a vanilla kernel and install it.
[06:59] <studio> mena: balls.
[06:59] <renton> Hm, xubuntu alternative install was going fine until 85%, now it appears to have hung
[07:00] <renton> yet i can change to other terminals with perfect response
[07:00] <threeonefour> who knows about error codes in scite
[07:00] <Falstius> windswept: its also possible that the problem isn't the kernel but grub.  I've never seen a kernel problem do that.
[07:00] <renton> any ideas why it's stopped proceeding?
[07:00] <someguy22> can somebody tell me what a generic kernel is?
[07:00] <mena> studio,so
[07:00] <studio> mena: so its not even listed?
[07:00] <OpenStandards> well windswept yes unplugged it and plugged back in and detected... so sorted
[07:00] <windswept> Falstius  this is my first machine that I am using with ubuntu.  I am speaking with you from my windows laptop.
[07:00] <studio> mena: sorry lol i'm thinking
[07:00] <spitwise> does anyone know about decompressing a .sit (stuffit)tm file?
[07:00] <mena> studio, yeb but in the Gparted its there
[07:00] <crimsun> prestocaso: amixer set 'Tone' on
[07:01] <windswept> openstandards when you did fdisk did you see partitions?
[07:01] <mena> whomee
[07:01] <studio> mena: hold on one second
[07:01] <mena> ok
[07:01] <andrew_> anyone: anyone here know how to install Hamachi? or if they dont, at least want to explain how to install things?
[07:01] <windswept> someguy a gerneic kernel is one that you can easily download.
[07:02] <spike723> anyone know how I can have a vga console?
[07:02] <OpenStandards> just hda1. but now i see sda so sorted
[07:02] <prestocaso> nothing crimsun
[07:02] <spike723> I pass grub something like vga=791?
[07:02] <andrew_> anyone: if anybody wants to explain to me how to do this : http://hamachiwiki.com/Install_on_Linux thank you very much!
[07:02] <renton> it's like it's waiting for some response behind the main install script.
[07:02] <windswept> Asc,  Falstius... I just downloaded the package  linux-image-2.6.15-27-386  and it had a kernel but no initrd.  would you know what the deal with that is?
[07:02] <Falstius> someguy22: a generic kernel is either a kernel compiled to work with any x86 processor or a 'vanilla' kernel meaning it hasn't been modified for a particular distribution (like ubuntu)
[07:02] <crimsun> prestocaso: are you -positive- the speakers/headphones are plugged in snugly and into the correct jack(s)?
[07:03] <andrew_> crimsun: can you help me out real quick, check this out http://hamachiwiki.com/Install_on_Linux
[07:03] <prestocaso> let me look again just to be absolutley sure
[07:03] <crimsun> prestocaso: and how are you testing?
[07:03] <Falstius> windswept: it probably creates the initrd when it is installed using mkinitrd
[07:03] <windswept> Falstius, Asc,  btw, I have tried a standard kernel from joeyhess's daily build but that ended up installing debian.
[07:03] <prestocaso> im using test sound in prefrences and also a mp3 file
[07:04] <studio> mena: try looking at this http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html
[07:04] <Falstius> windswept: er, createinitrd (or something like that, I can't remember the exact command)
[07:04] <crimsun> prestocaso: use the aplay command I gave you a while ago
[07:04] <mena> studio, okay
[07:04] <andrew_> anyone: if anybody wants to explain to me how to do this : http://hamachiwiki.com/Install_on_Linux thank you very much!
[07:04] <harrisony> andrew_: what is it
[07:04] <crimsun> prestocaso: I'm away for a phone conference
[07:04] <prestocaso> give me that command again crimsun
[07:05] <xtknight> where should i report a kernel bug (i'm beyond certain that only people who code the kernel can answer the obscure errors i'm getting)
[07:05] <crimsun> prestocaso: aplay /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav
[07:05] <andrew_> its basically a program that puts you on the same network with anybody you want, virtually
[07:05] <crimsun> xtknight: on launchpad.net
[07:05] <andrew_> harrisony: did you see those directions?
[07:05] <prestocaso> got it ill check it and if nothing ive got to go also thanks
[07:05] <xtknight> crimsun: not the LKML?
[07:05] <harrisony> il lookin
[07:05] <brian_> does anyone know how to get my wireless nic to give out ips and dns and everything
[07:05] <crimsun> xtknight: not the lkml.
[07:06] <crimsun> xtknight: the only exception is if you're using a stock kernel.org kernel
[07:06] <studio> mena: i'm not sure what you'd have to do to mount it, as i can't see your fstab file, but it definitly is mountable if gparted can see it. maybe try to mimick one of the examples in that third box
[07:06] <xtknight> crimsun: hm, well i compiled one myself based on edgy's config.  <IP_ADDRESS>.  does that count?
[07:06] <crimsun> xtknight: then send it to lkml.
[07:06] <harrisony> andrew_: have your tried installing
[07:06] <mena> studio, how to log in as a root....bec when i try it telling me i cant from this screen
[07:06] <prestocaso> got to run crimsun just wnated to say thanks for the help
[07:06] <mena> studio. ok
[07:06] <Falstius> brian_: you need to install a dhcp server and probably configure bind.  You could buy/download a book on network administration.
[07:06] <andrew_> harrisony: i dont know even where to start :-/
[07:06] <xtknight> crimsun: actually, it would probably belong on lkml because the driver im having issues with was only added after Edgy's kernel
[07:06] <xtknight> thanks
[07:07] <harrisony> andrew_: ok 1 sec
[07:07] <harrisony> andrew_: have  you downloaded it
[07:07] <studio> mena: you have to do something (that i dont' know how to do) in order to make that possible...sudo should work fine though, and if you have to start a gui program as root then do 'sudo program-name'
[07:07] <brian_> I have dhcp install but how do I get it to give out a essid
[07:08] <andrew_> harrisony: yes
[07:08] <threeonefour> studio, dont forget the mtab file
[07:08] <harrisony> ok can you get a terminal open with it in that folder
[07:08] <mena> studio,ok
[07:09] <andrew_> harrisony: i can open a terminal, i dont know how to point it to my desktop though
[07:09] <d1gita1> cd Desktop
[07:09] <harrisony> ok were is the folder on you desktop?
[07:09] <studio> threeonefour: sorry i'm not sure what that is...i'm actually not an ubuntu user (opensuse)
[07:09] <harrisony> whats the folder called andrew_
[07:09] <andrew_> harrisony: i named it Ham
[07:09] <mena> studio, how to know the program
[07:10] <harrisony> ok go cd ./Desktop/Ham
[07:10] <mena> studio, sorry but i am new in that
[07:10] <studio> mena: the program for what?
[07:10] <threeonefour> studio, i am a suse user as well but there still is an mtab file it can hold info like the fstab file
[07:11] <mena> studio, that you telling me the gui prgram
[07:11] <andrew_> harrisony: k
[07:11] <Falstius> threeonefour: mtab holds information about mounted filesystems and shouldn't be edited by hand (unless you have a really bizarre error)
[07:11] <harrisony> andrew_: sudo make install
[07:11] <studio> mena: o sorry i didn't mean to confuse you with that, i meant if you wanted something like gedit to be run as root then you start it from the command line with 'sudo gedit' etc
[07:12] <andrew_> harrisony: thanks, that worked, lemme read on, i know ill need more help :-)
[07:12] <mena> ohhh reallt
[07:12] <mena> realy
[07:12] <mena> okay
[07:12] <studio> threeonefour: ok i'm not aware of that, i just know how to partition :p
[07:12] <threeonefour> falstius, i have had to edit my mtab  ntfs
[07:12] <harrisony> andrew_: then do sudo /sbin/tuncfg
[07:13] <andrew_> harrisony: i did that

[07:17] <Spaghetti_Knife> Hi. I have a problem. Whenever I try to open Firefox now, it says that Firefox is running in the background. i force quitted firefox because it was frozen, and i don't know how to shut down the process.
[07:17] <tyme-> Spaghetti_Knife:  kill
[07:17] <Falstius> elyon225: is MUSIC ntfs?
[07:17] <monzie> Falstius: nope

[07:17] <monzie> Falstius: it just says "now wireless extensions" to all of them
[07:17] <elyon225> Falstius: No.  Its a folder I copied from my MP3 player to my Linux system.
[07:17] <Falstius> monzie: and modprobe ndiswrapper didn't give an error?
[07:18] <andrew_> harrisony: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/525/
[07:18] <Spaghetti_Knife> typing kill didn't work.

[07:18] <tyme-> ps shows the running processes
[07:18] <harrisony> Spaghetti_Knife: try kill-all firefox-bin
[07:18] <Falstius> elyon225: you could check the permissions with ls -lh /media first
[07:18] <tyme-> man ps for more options
[07:18] <mena> studio, when i told you about logging in did you that i mean when i log throw the login screen and try to log as as root it yelling me cant log throw this screen
[07:19] <elyon225> Falstius:  sudo chmod -r a+rwX /media/MUSIC
[07:19] <kyncani> r4g3: i think you have a bad cd, download the iso again, check the md5sum and burn it to cd
[07:19] <mena> studio, is this the same as you tell me before((the solution))
[07:19] <elyon225> oops
[07:19] <Spaghetti_Knife> harrisony- Didn't work.

[07:20] <Spaghetti_Knife> harrisony: What do I do?
[07:20] <harrisony> andrew_: yep
[07:20] <studio> mena: all i said was that in ubuntu you can't login as root from the main login screen, unless you mess with some things. as far as the solution (to mounting) you could email me a copy of the fstab file you currently have and i could see what i can do
[07:21] <r4g3> kyncani: at what point do I choose that?
[07:21] <harrisony> Spaghetti_Knife: can you paste the output of the command to the pastebin

[07:24] <mena> studion, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/526/
[07:24] <studio> mena ok'
[07:24] <mena> studio, ok
[07:25] <threeonefour> falstius, eg    tar -xzf blah.tar.gz /usr/local/
[07:25] <Falstius> threeonefour: no, if you want to extract it to a different directory it is tar -xzf blah.tar.gz -C /usr/local
[07:25] <studio> mena: what partitions are you trying to mount as ext3?
[07:25] <Menisk> Is there a program that I can use to stream a TV card accross the web with/
[07:25] <threeonefour> falstius, thank you i will write that down
[07:25] <Menisk> ?*
[07:26] <Falstius> threeonefour: or cd to the directory you want to install to and point tar at the original file.
[07:26] <mena> studio, hda6 hda7 hda8 hda5
[07:26] <studio> mena : ok
[07:26] <threeonefour> falstius, how do i point
[07:26] <mena> studio, ok
[07:26] <windswept>  falstius, AHHH!!! I fell and I can't get up oye making mkinitrd  oh no...
[07:26] <windswept> they cann't include that with the kernel?
[07:26] <Falstius> threeonefour: cd /usr/local; tar -xzf /home/me/blah.tgz
[07:27] <Falstius> windswept: no, since it depends on the machine.
[07:27] <threeonefour> oh ok
[07:27] <Falstius> threeonefour: I usually use -C, but it is easy to forget that switch :)
[07:27] <lkas> xsane cannot start
[07:28] <windswept> Falstius there would be differences between the 386 machines?
[07:29] <Falstius> windswept: yes, depending on the hard drive controller, chipset, etc.
[07:29] <Falstius> initrd holds modules that the kernel needs to read the files it needs to boot.  In most cases this is just ext3.ko though.
[07:30] <studio> mena: ok sorry the pastebin is being mean to me, i'll upload it on my server a min...
[07:30] <mena> studio, ok
[07:30] <andrew_> harrisony: you still here?
[07:31] <windswept> falstius and the command again to make that?  (sorry I am right now on a knoppix box and can not mount the true root because it is on a LVM of a raid partition)
[07:31] <harrisony> harrisony is still here
[07:32] <studio> mena: ok here, try this http://www.garslo.com/fstab.txt
[07:32] <elyon225> Since installing kdebase, every link I click on brings up Konqueror - I would rather use FireFox... Firefox is my default web browser.  How do I fix this?
[07:32] <andrew_> harrisony: i got it, now i need your helo installing the graphical front end for it
[07:32] <andrew_> harrisony: ill give you a pastebin URL with the readme
[07:32] <mena> studio,ok
[07:32] <studio> mena: ah crap hold on
[07:32] <harrisony> ok
[07:32] <studio> mena: sorry gotta change one things
[07:32] <mena> ok
[07:32] <Falstius> windswept: I still suspect the problem is with grub (maybe pointing to the wrong place) and not the kernel.  mkinitrd
[07:32] <Falstius> you can read the man page for it to get the arguements.
[07:33] <simon^templar> how do i add normal user to become root/su ?
[07:33] <windswept> falstius sorry I wish that was the case.  but when I point it to new files like those from the cd it worked fine.
[07:33] <andrew_> harrisony: here ya go http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/528/
[07:34] <noiesmo> simon^templar, sudo -i
[07:34] <Falstius> windswept: this page talks about making an initrd file on Debian, should be the same for ubuntu: http://www.edseek.com/archives/2004/03/22/creating-an-initrd-image-on-debian-gnulinux/
[07:34] <noiesmo> simon^templar, sorry misread
[07:34] <windswept> falstius the files systems were enough for me to try over 3 different installes over the past 3 days
[07:34] <studio> mena: ok now try it ...make sure you refresh the page if ur already there
[07:34] <harrisony> chmod +x ghamachi andrew_
[07:34] <elyon225> Since installing kdebase, every link I click on brings up Konqueror - I would rather use FireFox... Firefox is my default web browser.  How do I fix this?
[07:34] <cypher1> simon^templar: /etc/sudoers
[07:34] <harrisony> andrew_: then ./ghamachi
[07:34] <zgerrz> can someone help me get a a usb flash drive to be recognized in my front usb ports instead of only the usb ports located on the back of my desktop tower?
[07:34] <mena> studio,ok
[07:35] <studio> mena: you may have to add some options right after the 'defaults' part under 'options' ...just do a little googling if you can't write to them
[07:35] <windswept> Falstius I am taking teh original initrd and then trying to add the drivers for this kernel. and then will pray that this works.
[07:35] <mena> studio, ok
[07:35] <Falstius> windswept: you're probably going to want to create a fresh initrd instead of modify an old one (you could do that, but it is trickier)
[07:35] <harrisony> andrew_: it work?
[07:36] <andrew_> harrisony: i dont get what to do
[07:36] <harrisony> ok in terminal
[07:36] <harrisony> chmod +x ghamachi
[07:36] <mena> studio, would You Give me the terminal order
[07:36] <andrew_> harrisony: cannot access, no such file or directory
[07:36] <andrew_> harrisony: dont i need to point it somewhere first?
[07:36] <mena> studion, to run etc/fstab as root
[07:37] <harrisony> oh yeah in the Ham directory
[07:37] <studio> mena: oh ok, this time you'll want to make a backup of your original fstab
[07:37] <mena> okay
[07:37] <andrew_> harrisony: i did it i think
[07:37] <studio> mena : so this >>> sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.backup
[07:37] <zgerrz> does anyone know how to get a a usb flash drive to be recognized in my front usb ports instead of only the usb ports located on the back of my desktop tower?
[07:37] <studio> mena: then >>>> sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[07:38] <harrisony> andrew_:now ./ghamachi
[07:38] <heapme> whats the diff between ubuntu and debian?
[07:38] <studio> mena : copy and paste from the website to gedit, overwriting anything that's currently in your fstab
[07:38] <andrew_> harrisony: i think i need to start the other prog, one sec
[07:39] <mena> studio, now i can press save lol
[07:39] <studio> mena: lol good deal

[07:45] <studio> mena: lol no problem, i konw what these things can be like
[07:45] <harrisony> Knelix: it does that to me as well
[07:45] <harrisony> heapme: it would be a bit slower

[07:46] <studio> mena: if you want to change the mount point, like to /home/mena/directoryname you have to edit the fstab again, change where it says /media/hdaX to whatever you want the partition mounted

[07:50] <harrisony> Knelix: do you?
[07:50] <Knelix> And how the heck do I do that anyway?!!
[07:50] <Knelix> harrisony: I have no idea!
[07:51] <harrisony> !forum | Knelix
[07:51] <ubotu> Knelix: The Ubuntu forums can be found at http://www.ubuntuforums.org
[07:51] <Knelix> The Mac OS installer is very automatter, thus I've never needed to handle these things.
[07:51] <harrisony> im sure there are some mac geeks there
[07:51] <Knelix> *automatic

[07:51] <Knelix> I was hoping to get this done tonight.
[07:52] <Knelix> It always take much longer than I expected with Linux..... !!!!!
[07:52] <xtian> anyone know how to paste text into a terminal without a middle mouse button?
[07:52] <harrisony> xtian: ctrl-alt-v
[07:52] <spitwise> shift+insert
[07:52] <renton> how do i make sure the ubuntu cd is in the apt-get source?
[07:52] <harrisony> *ctrl-shift-v
[07:52] <gouki> xtian, CTRL+C, CTRL+V ?
[07:52] <spitwise> heh
[07:52] <harrisony> renton: alternate or live cd
[07:53] <xtian> neither work
[07:53] <xtian> its emacs readline
[07:53] <renton> apt-cdrom install /cdrom/
[07:53] <renton> would do?
[07:53] <harrisony> hmm
[07:53] <xtian> oh
[07:53] <harrisony> renton: what type of cd is it the ubuntu live cd,ubuntu alternate or other
[07:53] <xtian> harrisony, nvm, ctrl-shift-V worked

[07:54] <alibaba> linux is a bunch of bullshit
[07:54] <harrisony> alibaba: why? were all happy users here
[07:54] <alibaba> im so confused
[07:54] <harrisony> alibaba: whats confusing?
[07:54] <alibaba> installling files is so complicating
[07:55] <xtian> harrisony, why is it that ctrl-v doesnt work, is it because i am using emacs for a readline
[07:55] <alibaba> why cant they just make .exe just like windows
[07:55] <harrisony> xtian: dont know
[07:55] <gouki> alibaba, that doesn't make GNU/Linux bad, you just need to learn it
[07:55] <xtian> harrisony, oh well, thanks
[07:55] <harrisony> alibaba: sudo apt-get install firefox < is that hard to install firefox?????
[07:55] <autoklauen> i have qa problem configuring my routher through firefox - it has worked before , but now it goes : firefox <IP_ADDRESS> - response : segmentation fault (firefox gets killed).  -- if i run it as root or sudo firefox <IP_ADDRESS> it opens fine .

[07:56] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel.  :P

[08:07] <NetVenture> Can some one direct me to a channel for debian packaging help
[08:07] <timfrost> !automatix | alibaba
[08:07] <ubotu> alibaba: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[08:07] <gouki> NetVenture, ##debian-mentors
[08:07] <gouki> NetVenture, I also recommend reading the documenation on debian.org
[08:07] <NetVenture> thanks gouki
[08:08] <alibaba> o ok thats reasurring

[08:09] <ubuntux> question: i have a .htaccess file to deny file listing (Order allow,deny).. but it doesnt work
[08:09] <ubuntux> deny from all
[08:11] <gouki> ubuntux, don't take this the wrong way, but this is not the channel for that kind of problem (make sure the .htaccess is on the same folder on which you want to deny listing)
[08:11] <alibaba> why is windows so easy and linux so hard?
[08:11] <ubuntux> gouki, it is in the folder i want to deny listing.. do i have to ask ik in #apache or something?
[08:11] <andrew_> alibaba: One word buddy....Free
[08:12] <alibaba> ah true
[08:12] <gouki> ubuntux, it would be better if you do. They will give better support
[08:12] <ubuntux> gouki, ah okay, but it should be an easy one for guys also over here

[08:28] <alibaba> the dvd is spinning but its not appearing
[08:28] <mlalkaka> what program can i use in linux to determine my RAM's frequency and timings? i'm looking for something like cpu-z on windows?

[08:28] <mena> what is the deffrent between gnm and kdm

[08:30] <alibaba> theres to many audio packetes in the buffer
[08:30] <burepe> Is the server install the same as the desktop install?
[08:30] <ask_> Hi all! I just spent 2 hours trying to mount an Ipod Nano
[08:31] <timfrost> yakumo: I don't have an answer to that - NZ uses English, so I don't know how to deal with mixed languages
[08:31] <ask_> Somebody want to lend a hand?
[08:31] <ndlovu> can anyone tell me what the 'dhcp' does in 'iface br0 inet dhcp' (from /etc/network/interfaces)
ok thnks anyway
[08:32] <ndlovu> is bridge-utils the best way to share a connection or should I do some more research on masquerade?
[08:33] <timfrost> ndlovu: That tells the system that br0 is to get its configuration via DHCP (rather than being hard-coded)
[08:33] <Blario> I have a Vista DVD that edgy doesn't seem to be able to read
[08:33] <mlalkaka> mena: do you mean gdm? if so, then GDM is Gnome Display Manager, and KDM is the KDE Display Manager.
[08:33] <heapme> how can i make it so i can write to my windows/ntfs partition?
[08:33] <Blario> it's UDF (ISO-13346)
[08:33] <timfrost> !ntfs | heapme
[08:33] <ubotu> heapme: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions. For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[08:33] <vega-> ask_: mine worked out of the box, using amarok
[08:33] <burepe> Is there a server install option when installing from the cd?
[08:33] <Blario> when viewing it, i see one "readme.txt" that reads "This disc contains a "UDF" file system and requires an operating system
[08:33] <Blario> that supports the ISO-13346 "UDF" file system specification."
[08:34] <mena> okay thanks
[08:34] <elyon225> Could someone please help me with Amarok?  I need to get my system tray icon working.  Right now its just showing a floating icon on the desktop.
[08:34] <deepsa> oh i am in fiesty
[08:34] <mlalkaka> mena: although their names are associated to GNOME and KDE, both of them can be used with many different desktop environments and window managers
[08:34] <mena> how to switch bettewn them
[08:34] <ndlovu> timfrost, thanks - why would the bridge need an ip address itself? Isn't it just forwarding traffic from one ip (eth0) with another (eth1)?
[08:34] <mlalkaka> what program can i use in linux to determine my RAM's frequency and timings? i'm looking for something like cpu-z on windows?
[08:34] <Blario> secondly, do you guys actually trust ntfs-3g?
[08:35] <timfrost> ndlovu: are they in different networks? (check network masks)
[08:35] <mena> mlalkaka, bec i have ubuntu and i run the ubunt chrsitian edition installer
