[02:51] <JoshJ> Polygon89, and i still can't find the issue, someone in #compiz is who actually told me
[02:51] <chuy_max> ok, thx Dr_willis
[02:51] <wers> how do I permanently rotate images without using gimp?
[02:51] <christoz> hello does vlc supports .mp4 format files?
[02:51] <Dr_willis> chuy_max,  som4e server issue it seems at the download site
[02:51] <theFATMAN> how do i make a file in the terminal? i just realized i dont know how
[02:51] <JoshJ> Polygon89, what was the command to check direct rendering?
[02:51] <JoshJ> theFATMAN, "touch filename"
[02:51] <Polygon89> JoshJ, glxinfo | grep direct
[02:51] <Dr_willis> wers,  the 'imagemagik' package has some command line tools to do that I recall.
[02:51] <JoshJ> ah, thanks
[02:51] <christoz> anyone?
[02:51] <[KS]> usser, lol you ain't gonna believe it
[02:51] <[KS]> hahhaa, but everything went fine on -16 :))
[02:51] <wers> Dr_willis, cant I just use eog for that?
[02:52] <wers> or f-spot?
[02:52] <usser> [KS], what it modprobed?
[02:52] <Dr_willis> wers,  no idea.. did you TRY it?
[02:52] <syrius`> Anyone have any luck compiling linux-restricted-modules for a custom kernel?
[02:52] <JoshJ> fspot probably can, i doubt eog can
[02:52] <[KS]> usser, like a charm :)
[02:52] <JoshJ> theFATMAN, if it's a directory, "mkdir" does what you want
[02:52] <jepong> is there a update on hardy-proposed RE openoffice suite?
[02:52] <wers> Dr_willis, i did but I failed
[02:52] <theFATMAN> joshj, thanks, so...'touch /etc/init.d/iptables_azureus'  ?
[02:52] <flint> !apache2 ssl | flint
[02:52] <usser> [KS], hm....oh wow unbelievable
[02:52] <usser> [KS], iwconfig see it?
[02:52] <JoshJ> theFATMAN, that's syntactically correct, i have no idea if that's what you actually want to do though
[02:52] <JoshJ> you may have to sudo it due to the location
[02:53] <[KS]> usser lol yeah
[02:53] <theFATMAN> joshj, ah ok, well i'm doin a bit of port forwarding
[02:53] <[KS]> altough iwlwifi_mac80211 wont modload
[02:53] <christoz> does vlc or tottem  supports .mp4 format files?
[02:53] <[KS]> but iwlwifi modprobed
[02:53] <flint> [KS] sorry about that...
[02:53] <JoshJ> theFATMAN, don't ask me about that lol; i have no idea how to do that without the nifty linksys web interface :p
[02:53] <usser> [KS], as long as iwl4965 is there it shoulnt matter
[02:53] <Steve-Cal> theFATMAN: Are you trying to get azureus working with a router?
[02:53] <usser> [KS], pastebin modinfo iwl4965
[02:54] <Dr_willis> wers,  for doing a large # of taks imagemagick is handy. :)   http://www.imagemagick.org/script/index.php has some details of the packages features.  if you want a alterantive gui tool. I tend to use picassa a lot
[02:54] <theFATMAN> Steve-Cal, yeah
[02:54] <syrius`> Anyone with experience compiling linux-restricted-modules for a custom kernel that could assist me for a moment?
[02:54] <usser> [KS], or look for the version it should be 1.2.26k
[02:54] <[KS]> lol it's ok
[02:54] <JoshJ> theFATMAN, is the router the computer you're doing /etc/init.d modifying on?
[02:54] <[KS]> my wifi card is even in the dropdown list of the nm-applet
[02:54] <[KS]> :D
[02:54] <JoshJ> if not, you need to actually modify it in the *router*- see portforward.com
[02:54] <usser> [KS], hah
[02:54] <theFATMAN> joshj, yeah
[02:54] <jo_> OH HAI GUIS
[02:54] <usser> [KS], i bet the wifi LED doesnt work though
[02:54] <Steve-Cal> theFATMAN: the only port forwarding you should need to do is with your router configuration--you shouldn't need to mess with iptables on your machine.
[02:54] <Psyux> HOW R U DOIN?
[02:54] <[KS]> usser, it's always orange
[02:55] <ksbalaji> Steve-Cal: The URL is -http://pastebin.com/d6d6fc336
[02:55] <[KS]> cause this is HP Pavillion HDX9000
[02:55] <[KS]> has those touch thingie buttons
[02:55] <[KS]> quickplay I think
[02:55] <usser> [KS], yep, LED works with backports modules
[02:55] <theFATMAN> Steve-Cal, i wasnt sure, i was just going by their wiki, they have an ubuntu reference section
[02:55] <usser> [KS], but not with compat-wireless
[02:55] <theFATMAN> lol
[02:55] <[KS]> usser, thanks
[02:55] <[KS]> usser, led vs wifi, guess what I chose :D
[02:55] <mepsipax> how do I see how much space files are taking up?
[02:55] <usser> [KS], can u still pastebin modinfo iwl4965 i want to see it
[02:55] <usser> [KS], ?
[02:55] <[KS]> ok sure
[02:55] <JoshJ> mepsipax, "du"
[02:56] <Steve-Cal> theFATMAN: That's strange--do you have the URL for that info?
[02:56] <JoshJ> mepsipax, that takes a while if you don't add other stuff :p
[02:56] <theFATMAN> joshj, yeah, they dont have my router on that site
[02:56] <Flannel> mepsipax: ls -lh /path/to/file
[02:56] <astro76> mepsipax: also, df -h
[02:56] <[KS]> usser
[02:56] <usser> [KS], but u'll still want to go to newer kernel at some point
[02:56] <astro76> mepsipax: depending on exactly what you mean ;)
[02:56] <[KS]> but wifi does not see my network still
[02:56] <theFATMAN> Steve_Cal, here it is:  http://www.azureuswiki.com/index.php/NAT_problem#Detailed_guideline
[02:56] <JoshJ> mepsipax, also "ls -l" does it
[02:56] <[KS]> maybe I should restart?
[02:56] <JoshJ> (along with some other stuff)
[02:56] <usser> [KS], does it see other network?
[02:56] <Steve-Cal> ksbalaji: Did you install Audacity through the repositories or did you compile it yourself?
[02:57] <[KS]> no
[02:57] <[KS]> it says Wired Networks
[02:57] <[KS]> and WIreless networks
[02:57] <[KS]> but none are listed
[02:57] <FloodBot3> [KS]: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:57] <syrius`> Anyone with experience compiling linux-restricted-modules for a custom kernel that could assist me for a moment?
[02:57] <JoshJ> mepsipax, you should do "man" on the various things to find out for sure what you want and how to use them.
[02:57] <usser> [KS], give it some time... it takes maybe 2 mins on my laptop for it to initialize
[02:57] <theLichKing> hello
[02:58] <deeperror> when i get these recommended updates is that removing the files it is updating or does this add more and more every time?
[02:58] <usser> [KS], also try iwlist wlan0 scan
[02:58] <JoshJ> mepsipax,  ls -s gives filesize in blocks
[02:58] <[KS]> usser, what was the name of the graphic card driver
[02:58] <[KS]> the one you told me to change to ati?
[02:58] <astro76> deeperror: files are replaced
[02:58] <usser> [KS], fglrx
[02:58] <theFATMAN> how do i highlight a name in irc with x-chat?
[02:58] <bonhoffer> i just connected via sftp to another computer . . . how do i put a directory mput dir_name doesn't work
[02:58] <ksbalaji> Steve-Cal:Installation was thru repositories. I think beta version installations are enabled.
[02:58] <astro76> theFATMAN: type the nick like I just did
[02:58] <astro76> theFATMAN: tab completion helps
[02:58] <chetnick> my gnome-panel is very CPU intensive. Is there anything I can do about it?
[02:59] <theFATMAN> astro76: i had no idea it did that, lol
[02:59] <Steve-Cal> theFATMAN: Yes, based on the info on that page, I don't believe you need to do anything more then forward the necessary ports thru your router setup.
[02:59] <theLichKing> i installed the windows wireless drivers package, installed the driver, and now i wanna configure the network.. the problem is the network configurator asks for the name of the network.. how can i tell it to search the wireless networks that are available and choose from one?
[02:59] <[KS]> ok
[02:59] <[KS]> I did the restart
[02:59] <deeperror> astro76: thanks seemed like a lot of things being downloaded the other day just making sure that was the case
[02:59] <[KS]> after the restart I'll pastebin iwl
[02:59] <theFATMAN> Steve-Cal: ok, thanks dude
[02:59] <bonhoffer> i get skipping non-regular file MyDirectory
[02:59] <usser> [KS], kk
[02:59] <JoshJ> theFATMAN, you should be able to do it via xchat settings: settings -> preferences -> chatting -> alerts -> nicknames to always highlight
[02:59] <bonhoffer> if i do mput MyDirectory
[02:59] <Sergeant_Pony> is there a way to format a usb memory stick?
[03:00] <astro76> deeperror: well yeah the package has to be downloaded, but when it is installed it replaces files... however the .deb package is actually saved in /var/cache/apt/archives
[03:00] <Catslacks> I installed Warcraft 3 with Wine but it doesn't work. When I run it everything just flashes. I checked WineDB but it said there shouldn't be any problems.
[03:00] <[KS]> usser, ati driver was causing flicker in -16 kernel so i had to change it back
[03:00] <theFATMAN> Steve-Cal: i am a former windows user, how do i find my ip in the terminal?
[03:00] <astro76> deeperror: if you want to empty that, you can do sudo apt-get clean
[03:00] <deeperror> and the debs can be removed
[03:00] <Steve-Cal> ksbalaji: I think your best bet is give the 1.2.x version a try. Be sure to first uninstall your 1.3 version, and uou can download the 1.2.6 version here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty-updates/i386/audacity/download
[03:00] <deeperror> ahh cool
[03:00] <JoshJ> Catslacks, check #wine
[03:00] <syrius`> theLichKing: I wasn't able to view wireless networks with my windows drivers package, i had to manually enter the SSID to start the connection
[03:00] <deeperror> thanks
[03:00] <usser> [KS], i see
[03:00] <theFATMAN> Steve-Cal: never mind, just answered my own ?, lol, peace
[03:01] <syrius`> Anyone with experience compiling linux-restricted-modules for a custom kernel that could assist me for a moment?
[03:01] <Catslacks> joshJ: "YOU (Catslacks) have been booted from #wine by ChanServ (Invite only channel)"
[03:01] <bonhoffer> so to put a directory do i need to use a recursive option to mput
[03:01] <[KS]> doh
[03:01] <[KS]> iwlist wlan0 scan
[03:01] <astro76> Catslacks: you want #winehq
[03:01] <[KS]> no scan results
[03:01] <mepsipax> quota returns nothing
[03:01] <theLichKing> syrius`: that's very not practical, what if i was in a cafe?
[03:02] <JoshJ> Catslacks, see astro76 's comment
[03:02] <bonhoffer> the web says to use put -R MyDirectory -- but this doesn't work
[03:02] <roxahris> what commend do I use to rename files froma  consile
[03:02] <bonhoffer> is this really complicated -- thought folks would ftp directories a lot
[03:02] <roxahris> err
[03:02] <Flannel> roxahris: rename or mv
[03:02] <bonhoffer> roxahris: mv
[03:02] <syrius`> yeah I know, i was suprised.. i just couldn't do it with the gui.. i'm sure there is a command line way to do it
[03:02] <usser> [KS], sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
[03:02] <roxahris> Thanks
[03:02] <alexbOrsova> SeaPhor, well i didn't expect to see you here considering you're not in Digital-it
[03:03] <Immersion> Has anyone here tried Pixel? http://www.kanzelsberger.com/pixel/?page_id=12
[03:03] <yojesus> i just downloaded some screenlets but evrytime i turn off the computer and turn it back on they are never thier how do i get them to apear their all the time
[03:03] <[KS]> usser
[03:03] <[KS]> hm
[03:03] <syrius`> roxahris: I believe you can use the 'mv' command.
[03:03] <[KS]> Interface doesn't support scanning: Network is down
[03:03] <bonhoffer> does anyone here use ftp -- or is ftp too old for folks today
[03:03] <syrius`> Anyone with experience compiling linux-restricted-modules for a custom kernel that could assist me for a moment?
[03:04] <usser> [KS], wlan0 is your wifi for sure?
[03:04] <mepsipax> how do I uninstall a package?
[03:04] <bonhoffer> still getting: skipping non-regular file
[03:04] <Sergeant_Pony> does anyone know how to format a usb memory stick
[03:04] <Flannel> mepsipax: sudo apt-get remove package, or with synaptic, mark it for removal
[03:04] <moDumass> kdeinit: Aborting. No write access to '/home/modumass/.ICEauthority'. (newline) ERROR: KUniqueApplication: Can't setup DCOP communication.
[03:04] <[KS]> usser, iwconfig says so
[03:04] <astro76> bonhoffer: you could use scp
[03:04] <JoshJ> mepsipax, sudo apt-get remove packagename
[03:04] <Lachlan> Hi, does anybody know of a Remote Desktop client for Linux? (Remote Desktop as in the Windows Remote Desktop)
[03:05] <Dr_willis> Sergeant_Pony,  same as  You format any other filesystem.  I normally use 'sudo mkfs.XXXX /dev/devicename'
[03:05] <JoshJ> bonhoffer, you need a -b flag (or similar) to indicate that you want to transfer a binary file
[03:05] <astro76> bonhoffer: it's usage mirrors cp
[03:05] <JoshJ> Lachlan, you mean like rdp?
[03:05] <JoshJ> !rdp
[03:05] <Flannel> moDumass: Don't use sudo for graphical programs, use kdesu instead.  to fix this, delete or chown ~/.ICEauthority back to yourself
[03:05] <bonhoffer> astro76: so that is what folks use now, scp?
[03:05] <Dr_willis> bonhoffer,  if you can use ssh/scp over FTP.. its proberly best to do so, :)
[03:05] <Sergeant_Pony> Dr_willis: ok, cool I have 4 usb ports how can I tell what one it's connected to?
[03:05] <astro76> Lachlan: Applications > Internet > Terminal Server Client
[03:05] <astro76> bonhoffer: it's a part of ssh, as is sftp
[03:05] <JoshJ> that or they just use source control outright :p
[03:06] <xplug> who is skilled on centos or redhat
[03:06] <xplug> i need some help
[03:06] <astro76> bonhoffer: much more convenient on the command line
[03:06] <Flannel> xplug: #centos and #redhat, I imagine
[03:06] <Lachlan> astro76: Ahh silly me. Thanks very much. :)
[03:06] <JoshJ> probably the people in #centos and #redhat
[03:06] <bonhoffer> astro76: i'll give it a try
[03:06] <Dr_willis> Sergeant_Pony,  check 'sudo fdisk -l'  or the 'dmesg' output when you plug it in.. rember you partition, then format. :) if youw ant to change the filesystem type. you will need to do that befor you format.
[03:06] <moDumass> Flannel, i did a system upgrade and it wont start
[03:06] <xplug> Flannel JoshJ no one there :S
[03:07] <usser> [KS], im lost. i dunno what the hell is going on
[03:07] <xmp> aiii
[03:07] <astro76> xplug: it's still offtopic here ;)
[03:07] <moDumass> Flannel, if i delete will it replace the file?
[03:07] <Flannel> xplug: Perhaps that's the wrong channel.  You should check their websites for where their IRC channel is
[03:07] <Flannel> moDumass: yeah, when it needs it again
[03:07] <moDumass> cool, thanks
[03:07] <toyo|desk> anyone know how to get rid of old kernels that have been piling up it says /boot is full
[03:07] <Flannel> toyo|desk: remove their packages through package management
[03:08] <xplug> ok FloodBot3
[03:08] <binarymutant> Open Arena keeps freezing on me does anyone else have this problem?
[03:08] <xplug> Flannel
[03:08] <Sergeant_Pony> dr_willis: mkfs.XXXX? what are the x's for?
[03:08] <dfox1> Anyone running compiz on a ECS 6100-pm-m mainboard?
[03:08] <will01> is it possible to have amarok's collection folder be on a samba share?
[03:09] <[KS]> usser, could it be that wifi device is disabled by default?
[03:09] <astro76> Sergeant_Pony: type mkfs then hit <TAB><TAB>, you'll see the different commands that start with mkfs.
[03:09] <[KS]> usser, there is nothing in BIOS about it... can that be a problem?
[03:09] <dfox1> will01: probably, but it might be slow. amarok disk activty is pretty heavy in collection scanning (64bit here)
[03:10] <usser> [KS], yes that may be in fact thats one of the known bugs with iwl driver but you had different symptoms in the beginning
[03:10] <will01> dfox1: what im trying to do is limit the amount of hard drive space consumed on a laptop and id like some guidance on this one
[03:10] <usser> [KS], take a look in dmesg is there anything like this iwl4965: Radio disabled by HW RF Kill switch
[03:10] <will01> dfox1: and cant you completely disable the occasional scan and just do it manually?
[03:11] <Dr_willis> Sergeant_Pony,  for whatever filesystem type you want. :) linux basics.
[03:12] <usser> [KS], just type dmesg in terminal
[03:12] <Dr_willis> Sergeant_Pony,  what filesystem are you trying to format to? if you dont understand what i mean by filesystem - well  theres some linux basics to be learning befor you  do this.
[03:12] <bonhoffer> cool -- it works (thanks)
[03:12] <moDumass> Flannel, I searched my filesystem for .ICEauthority and found nothing
[03:12] <Invert314> which commands can i enter into fdisk to safely add a few mbs of unallocated disk space between partitions without losing any valuable data?  when i start fdisk, it says press m for help which lists a series of commands.  I don't know which commands to choose.  can someone please help me?
[03:12] <dfox1> will01: not sure if it can be disabled, but what I'd try first is copy the files over to a shared folder and point amarok to it.
[03:12] <moDumass> Flannel, Im using gnoime
[03:12] <[KS]> usser, it's full of it
[03:12] <[KS]> :D
[03:12] <Sergeant_Pony> Dr_willis: I have a memory stick I want to reformat for linux
[03:12] <dfox1> will01: unforch I don't do samba, no windows boxes here
[03:13] <will01> dfox1 ok thanks, but i mighta just figured it out
[03:13] <Dr_willis> Sergeant_Pony,  so what kind of filesytstem to you want to put on it? ext3? will it JUST be used by linux? if you want windows to access it also you will wan tto use fat32, or fat16 filesystem (known as vfat in linux terms)
[03:14] <Dr_willis> !format
[03:14] <KenSentMe> My laptop tends to hang completely this evening. I can only reboot it by a hard shutdown. How can i check if this is a hardware or a software failure?
[03:15] <Steve-Cal> Dr_willis: Actually there are programs in Windows (free ones even) that allow you to access EXT3 filesystems. That's not necessarily a problem.
[03:15] <Dr_willis> Steve-Cal,  ive tried them.. and  there can be problems. :)
[03:15] <NMajik> What exactly am I seeing if I run sudo cat /dev/core or sudo strings /dev/core?
[03:15] <[KS]> usser, is there a solution?
[03:15] <___Alex___> KenSentMe: use the diagnostic software provided by your laptop manufacturer
[03:16] <Flannel> moDumass: it's in your home folder, make sure you ctrl-H to see hidden files
[03:16] <ksbalaji_>  Steve-Cal:Were you able to get the errors list please? Can I repair and just keep the beta version or choose a stable version of audacity?
[03:16] <Steve-Cal> Dr_willis: Hmmm... I have no problems with the one I'm using, I forget the exact name though.
[03:16] <moDumass> Flannel, yeh i was using a search tool, but found it through lookin around
[03:16] <Sergeant_Pony> Dr_willis I got it formatted and mounted but it formatted it for superuser only?
[03:17] <Dr_willis> Steve-Cal,  problems can vary.. but what if he takes that stick to a friends/work/school where he cant install the softwware.. ive also had  beginners have issues with  files they move around gettting owned by root and so forth.
[03:17] <syrius`> Anyone with experience compiling linux-restricted-modules for a custom kernel that could assist me for a moment?
[03:17] <selocol> Hello, can someone tell me the name of "Add/Remove Programs" programs, so I can run it in a non-Gnome WM? Thanks.
[03:17] <selocol> Or the path to it. Thank you.
[03:17] <Dr_willis> Sergeant_Pony,  for a ext2/3 filesystem -  always make a directory on the filesystem, thats then chowned by the user. to give them full access to that directory.
[03:17] <ksbalaji_> Steve-Cal: I just got disconnected and missed a few lines for 10minutes.
[03:18] <Jack_Sparrow> selocol apt-get or aptitude
[03:18] <Mr_Bad_News> when i try to put my card into monitor mode i get   Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) : SET failed on device ath0 ; Invalid argument.
[03:18] <selocol> Jack_Sparrow: No, I'm asking specifically about the Add/Remove Program interface.
[03:18] <KenSentMe> ___Alex___, is there no way Ubuntu do some diagnosis?
[03:18] <Steve-Cal> ksbalaji: I see, well I suggested going ahead and trying the 1.2.6 stable release, which you can get at: http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty-updates/i386/audacity/download  (be sure to uninstall the 1.3 version first)
[03:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Sergeant_Pony Would this help First, check the ownership by going to /media and doing a ls -la ... Then, do the following, replacing “yourPartition” with the name of the partition (e.g. /sdb1)... sudo chown -R username:username /yourPartition  followed by... sudo chmod -R 755 /yourPartition ... Finally, check to see if it worked by doing another ls -la
[03:19] <astro76> selocol: run add/remove, then do ps -aux, it should be the next to last process in the list
[03:19] <moDumass> ok, so i can get ktorrent up and working but it doesnt accept torrent files, they just dont start dloading
[03:19] <moDumass> its strange
[03:19] <selocol> astro76: ok thanks
[03:19] <Steve-Cal> Dr_willis: Yes, that's a very good point. I agree with you since it's a USB stick--I was thinking more of my linux partition getting mounted in Windows.
[03:19] <Mr_Bad_News> does that mean i cant use aireplay for injections?
[03:19] <Sergeant_Pony> Jack_sparrow I'm going to have to start this over from step 1
[03:20] <erinrylee> is there any kind of migration tool I can use to transfer my firefox,evolution, and pidgin files/configs after I've already installed?
[03:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Sergeant_Pony I was just passing through.. Just thought that might apply
[03:20] <Jack_Sparrow> !clone | erinrylee
[03:20] <Flannel> erinrylee: Migration from what to what?
[03:20] <Dr_willis> Steve-Cal,  ive also had windows crash.. and trash my linux filesystem once.  I always unmount the linux drives when done when i access tehm from windows. :) and befor i exit windows
[03:20] <Steve-Cal> Mr_Bad_News: Are you using ndiswrapper for your wireless?
[03:20] <Mr_Bad_News> madwifi-ng
[03:21] <Sergeant_Pony> Jack_Sparrow I'm just trying to reformat a usb memory stick to put my college papers on as a backup
[03:21] <erinrylee> Flannel, from gentoo to ubuntu
[03:21] <klosk1> does ubuntu support hfs out of the box ??
[03:21] <Mr_Bad_News> or do i have to set it in monitor mode using airmon first?
[03:21] <Flannel> erinrylee: just backup your home folder, that contains all your personal settings
[03:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Sergeant_Pony Use windows or gparted and make it fat32 or fat 16
[03:21] <Dr_willis> Sergeant_Pony,  so what filesystem did you format it to?
[03:21] <Steve-Cal> Mr_Bad_News: Just checking, because ndiswrapper does not support RF monitor mode. I think your madwifi does though.
[03:21] <Sergeant_Pony> Jack_Sparrow good Idea
[03:21] <syrius`> Anyone with experience compiling linux-restricted-modules for a custom kernel that could assist me for a moment?
[03:22] <ksbalaji_> Steve-Cal:Thanks Steve ! (and other users too!) and bye!
[03:22] <Sergeant_Pony> Dr_willis ext2
[03:22] <erinrylee> Flannel, eek my homedir is a mess...my gentoo install is from 2001
[03:22] <Steve-Cal> ksbalaji: No problem, good luck with it. :)
[03:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Sergeant_Pony I agree with Dr_willis ...   virtually always
[03:22] <Dr_willis> Sergeant_Pony,  you realize that if you take your drive to most window machines it wont be able to read it .. right?
[03:22] <Flannel> erinrylee: Well, just backup the preferences you want.  Pidgin, Evolution, Mozilla
[03:23] <syrius`> this could take a while to figure out... bleh.. :p
[03:23] <Sergeant_Pony> Dr_willis yes I understand. I want it to backup my papers for college and I do them under ubuntu only
[03:23] <erinrylee> Flannel, will firefox use my <IP_ADDRESS> settings in 3.0beta?
[03:23] <Flannel> erinrylee: I have no idea
[03:23] <Dr_willis> Sergeant_Pony,  for my external disks  - i normally 'sudo mkdir /media/WHATEVER/username_storage '   then 'sudo chown /media/WHATEVER/username_storage username.username'
[03:24] <Jack_Sparrow> Sergeant_Pony Fat32 or Fat 16 will let you access them from either os
[03:24] <Dr_willis> Sergeant_Pony,  that way the files on the usb device have proper ownership.
[03:24] <erinrylee> me either, what a beotch
[03:24] <tetraedr> hi everyone
[03:24] <Flannel> erinrylee: I imagine if the file formats are different, FF will convert it the first time you read it
[03:24] <Sergeant_Pony> Dr_Willis: why does it default to superuser on a format?
[03:24] <tetraedr> I'm trying to install ubuntu 8.04LTS from USB Stick made with UNetbootin
[03:24] <Dr_willis> Sergeant_Pony,   why shouldent it?  :) its not owned by ANYONE unless you tell it to..
[03:25] <Sergeant_Pony> Dr_Willis: ok, good point
[03:25] <tetraedr> but installer can't find CD even when I'm mounting it with mount -t vfat /dev/sdc1 /cdrom
[03:25] <syrius`> Would anyone be able to direct me to some useful resources regarding compilation of the restricted-modules source if they don't know first hand?
[03:25] <tetraedr> what should I do?
[03:25] <Dr_willis> tetraedr,  a cdrom is not a vfat filesystem.
[03:25] <Dr_willis> tetraedr,  -t iso9660
[03:26] <PCcertified> Hi peeps, I just installed ubuntu 8.04 LTS desktop edition and ust say it looks nice but, when using the preinstalled firefox (V3) I lost my top toolbar, as in no window decoration, no bar, no max/min buttons etc.   any ideas how to get it back?
[03:26] <tetraedr> Dr_willis, I'm trying to install from USB Stick and there can't be iso9660
[03:27] <selocol> Can someone tell me the path to "Add/Remove Applications"? I can't find it in ps -aux.
[03:27] <Dr_willis> tetraedr,  Im not clear on what you are doing then. There is a '  !install ' factoid that has links to alternative methods of installing.
[03:27] <Flannel> selocol: it's gnome-app-select, or something like that
[03:27] <DIL> i have a pci sound card installed - youtube audio can be heard on the mobo audio jacks but not on the pci audio card; rythmbox radio stations can only be heard through the pci sound card
[03:27] <Jack_Sparrow> PCcertified try in a term   compiz -replace   or emerald --replace
[03:28] <tj83> DIL .. Did you disable the on-board audio in the bios?
[03:28] <tetraedr> Dr_willis, I've made usb stick with UNetbooin and ubuntu 8.04 LTS and trying to install ubuntu from it, but I don't know how to make installer see flash drive as CD or consider so
[03:28] <rainman> hey how can i run a iso image without burning?
[03:28] <Dr_willis> rainman,  you can 'mount' an iso image and access its file.. if thats what you want.
[03:28] <PCcertified> selocol it's usr/bin/gnome-app-install
[03:29] <smehmood> what is System > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts doing behind the scenes? I assume its a GUI frontend to some other config file. Anyone know where/how I can get at that directly?
[03:29] <DIL> tj83: not that i recalled i changed jumpers to enable front jacks
[03:29] <Jack_Sparrow> tetraedr THis may help   Make an iso on usb bootable http://jak-linux.org/tmp/iso2usb.sh                 or read you at pendrivelinux.com
[03:29] <selocol> PCcertified: thank you! may i ask how do i, in general, find the path of an app such as this one? ones where i can't just do "which <app>"?
[03:29] <tetraedr> Jack_Sparrow, thnx will try it
[03:29] <Zaiden> Is it possible to have WINE and pulseaudio work together so that I can hear all my sound?
[03:30] <tj83> DIL.... i dont think that using 2 audio controllers is recommended if you want to make use of forward jacks they should be re routed to your PCI card.
[03:30] <rainman> thanks the thing is i dont have any dvds haha
[03:30] <DIL> tj83: is it a software issue or hardware the reroute
[03:31] <Sergeant_Pony> Jack_Sparrow and Dr_willis thanks got it going correctly so now I can get into it
[03:31] <tj83> DIL... I would physically re-route the audio cables from the forward jacks to your PCI card and disable the on-board audio from the bios
[03:31] <DIL> tj83: ty
[03:31] <sosriqwe> selocol, whereis <app>
[03:32] <chaosrl> does anyone know how to get the terminal to finish what i type using the "page up" key?
[03:32] <selocol> sosriqwe: how would i know the name of an app such as "Add/Remove Applications"? thanks
[03:32] <tj83> DIL.... as i have not re-configured and audio.. you may still have to reconfigure the audio afterwards
[03:32] <tommy> how do i mount my hidden ntsf partition?  ubuntu 7.10 used to see it, but hardy doesnt
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Sergeant_Pony Great
[03:32] <sosriqwe> selocol, ps -a   will give you a list of running apps..
[03:33] <Jack_Sparrow> chaosrl tab ?
[03:33] <tommy> any ideas please?
[03:33] <tetraedr> Jack_Sparrow, didn't work, its still looking for CD :(
[03:33] <Sergeant_Pony> Jack_sparrow, nope.. I'm wrong I can't access it still
[03:33] <erinrylee> Flannel, cp over .mozilla seems to halfway work...at least my bookmarks are there
[03:33] <sosriqwe> selocol, start the app and type ps -a in a console..
[03:33] <selocol> sosriqwe: doesn't show it
[03:33] <tommy> !mount hidden ntfs partition
[03:33] <Jack_Sparrow> tetraedr I was able to use that script to get iso to work on usb
[03:33] <PCcertified> selocol wish I could remember.  I'm just getting into linux myself after a few years of being forced to use the other OS.  I located this path by right clicking the applications menu and selecting edit, then I located add/remove and right clicked it for properties info
[03:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Sergeant_Pony What format did you use on it
[03:33] <tommy> !mount hidden
[03:34] <chaosrl> Jack_Sparrow: well i want it to finish something i previously had, such that if i typed "killall avant-window-navigator," no matter what i had typed after that, if i type "killall av" then page up, it would finish it
[03:34] <tommy> !mount
[03:34] <theFATMAN> is anyone here A+ certified?
[03:34] <PCcertified> selocol I suppose if you don't know the name of the app, you'll have to ask or d some research .
[03:34] <tommy> !DiskMounter
[03:34] <PastorBones> A+ Certification is just a piece of paper
[03:34] <tetraedr> Jack_Sparrow, this in not the problem of boot or sort of, it's a problem of installer which looks for CD only, and can't see USB as CD
[03:34] <tommy> ubottu NTFS-3g hidden partition
[03:34] <techno_freak> tommy, a search engine can end you up in better results
[03:34] <smehmood> how can i found out the mount point of my CDROM drive? or what is the defailt in Hardy?
[03:34] <selocol> PCcertified: great, thanks for letting me know how you found it. :)
[03:35] <sparkleytone> tommy: sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdx
[03:35] <sosriqwe> selocol, you can right click on the app icon. add it to the panel and get the info...
[03:35] <tommy> techno_freak, google found nothuing
[03:35] <sparkleytone> tommy: x is generally sdb sdc sda, etc
[03:35] <Jack_Sparrow> chaosrl I use arrow up
[03:35] <tommy> sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdx  did nothing
[03:35] <vic1ous> Hey, can someone help me get my microphone working on Ubuntu?
[03:35] <selocol> sosriqwe: im wondering why ps commands dont show it
[03:35] <theFATMAN> is anyone here A+ certified?
[03:35] <Sergeant_Pony> Jack_Sparrow it's ext2
[03:35] <erinrylee> is pidgin's configs now in .purple instead of .gaim?
[03:35] <Jack_Sparrow> tommy sudo fdisk -l
[03:36] <stpere> hi, quick question! How can I see if my /dev/sda drive is using dma?
[03:36] <chaosrl> Jack_Sparrow: ha. i totally forgot about arrow up. thanks!
[03:36] <Sergeant_Pony> Jack_Sparrow I know why I cna't access it
[03:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Sergeant_Pony USe what I gave you earlier to set permissions or use fat16/32
[03:36] <sosriqwe> selocol, what are you looking for with ps?
[03:36] <Jack_Sparrow> chaosrl sorry took me a minute
[03:36] <Sergeant_Pony> Jack_sparrow it has it mounted 2x sdb1 and sdb2
[03:37] <selocol> sosriqwe: the path to "Add/Remove Applications" which is currently open
[03:37] <stpere> it's an IDE drive, but it's identified by sda anyway.. but, hdparm doesn'T give me that info anymore
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Sergeant_Pony gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[03:37] <Flannel> selocol: `which gnome-app-install` will give you a full path

[03:45] <Joeb454> of your pastebin
[03:45] <froduntu> and I wanted to be able to do something like
[03:45] <m_newton> IS spybot NEEDED on linux (RECOMENDED)
[03:45] <Joeb454> m_newton, no
[03:45] <erinrylee> GreatLifeForYou, try kino
[03:45] <froduntu> find ./ -iname <myfilename> -cp /home
[03:46] <froduntu> what I really want to do
[03:46] <PCcertified> m_newton  no spybot is not required because you don't usually operate as the admi
[03:46] <tommy> Jack_Sparrow, that url didnmt help.  any other ideas?
[03:46] <PCcertified> admin*
[03:46] <froduntu> is search for a file and if it finds it to copy it to a certain folder
[03:46] <GreatLifeForYou> thank you erinrylee, will do.
[03:46] <m_newton> Any good SECURITY MEASURES when running a WEBSERVER?
[03:46] <Jack_Sparrow> tommy nope
[03:46] <tommy> Joeb454, you are talking a lot, but offer no solution
[03:46] <tommy> Jack_Sparrow, ok ty anyway
[03:46] <Jack_Sparrow> m_newton /join #Ubuntu-server
[03:46] <tommy> nobody knows :(
[03:47] <PCcertified> m_newton a hardware firewall, and setting up apache correctly.
[03:47] <froduntu> does anybody know how can I do with a one liner to have something like 'find ./ -iname <myfilename> -cp ~/
 when you say hardware firewall?
[03:48] <PCcertified> most routers act as a firewall, but you can also use the linux software firewall, search google for apache security
[03:48] <augusto> How can I install cairo-dock for ubuntu 64bits?
[03:48] <froduntu> does anybody know how can I do with a one liner to have something like 'find ./ -iname <myfilename> -cp ~/'?
[03:49] <Jack_Sparrow> !chroot
 when you say  linux software firewall
[03:49] <PCcertified> you ca set up a macro, a command that executes it most of the code for you but I forget how
[03:50] <froduntu> PCcertified: I thought the find command could do expressions
[03:50] <PCcertified> selocol why do you keep changing your nick
[03:50] <froduntu> but I don't know how exactly to word it
[03:50] <Jack_Sparrow> froduntu  I dont do much of that but            find ./ -iname <myfilename> | cp ~/
[03:50] <selocol> PCcertified: sorry about that
[03:50] <froduntu> thanks I'll try it
[03:51] <Jack_Sparrow> froduntu Read up on pipes
 No problem
[03:51] <froduntu> thanks Jack_Sparrow
[03:51] <Jack_Sparrow> froduntu Did that do it
[03:52] <froduntu> because I know you can say find and if found delete
[03:52] <Dr_willis> i thought find had a -exec option
[03:52] <froduntu> Jack_Sparrow: not really
[03:52] <m_newton> Question: Is there any 'additional security' like firewalls, or anti spyware software on Hardy Heron (when running desktop version with appachi)
[03:52] <tj83> Jack_Sparrow ... off topic.... but i am curious... How many years of linux experience do you have? (looking up to your wisdom as a beginner)
[03:52] <froduntu> find: paths must precede expression
[03:52] <froduntu> Usage: find [-H] [-L] [-P] [path...] [expression]
[03:52] <froduntu> that is what I get
[03:52] <Jack_Sparrow> tj83 mid 90's
[03:52] <Dr_willis> !firewall | m_newton
[03:53] <opop> are they doing some sort of minor release?  lots of updates past couple of days.
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> tj83 Off and on..
[03:53] <Dr_willis> m_newton,  as for spyware - its not really an issue in Linux.
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> Time to head out
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> Goodnight
[03:54] <tetraedr> so any ideas how to make installer see usb stick as cd?
 how about viruses, worms, exploits?... any sure fire way to be secure (assuming you update regularly already)
[03:55] <froduntu> thanks, and have a good one Jack_Sparow
[03:55] <Dr_willis> m_newton,  ubottu  is a bot. :) and viruses are not really an issue either.  - keept up to date. is about all i have to do.

[04:05] <tj83> PCcertified it may.... but it wont be a long term soulution
[04:05] <tj83> PCcertified what kind of video card?
[04:05] <codecaine> worked for me froduntu
[04:05] <codecaine> find . -iname ki2 -execdir cp {} /home/codecaine/Desktop/ \;
[04:05] <PCcertified> tj83 what do you mean?  it won't be a long term solution,
[04:06] <PCcertified> using FX5200 128MB NVIDIA
[04:06] <jack-desktop> I can't get any music to play on my computer (local files, internet sound works fine)
[04:06] <tj83> PCcertified and your using the free or non free drivers?
[04:06] <usser> jack-desktop, do u have restricted-extras installed
[04:07] <usser> jack-desktop, on the terminal do sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[04:07] <PCcertified> Ubuntu complained that I need to use the non-free drives and provided me an option to select it
[04:07] <jack-desktop> usser, whats the full package?
[04:07] <tj83> PCcertified one min.. i will pastebin my compiz --replace output for you.. i get similar errors
[04:07] <usser> jack-desktop, ^^
[04:07] <froduntu> let me try it codecaine
[04:07] <jack-desktop> usser, yeah slow typing, i hit tab and "user_" popped up, I had to fix that
[04:07] <tj83> PCcertified... i assume you accepted the non free drivers.... it is best
[04:08] <hummin> nick BigTomato
[04:08] <codecaine> find . -iname filename -execdir cp '{}' /home/codecaine/Desktop/ \; 2> /dev/null
[04:08] <hummin> NICK BigTomato
[04:08] <hummin> whoami
[04:08] <PCcertified> point is, I can no longer move or resize windows so it's kinda hard to manipulate
[04:08] <codecaine> 2> if there errors like no file premissions etc it will got o null you won't have too look at it in terminal
[04:08] <PCcertified> yes I did tj83
[04:08] <Luhta> I seem to have lost tab completion for anything that wouldn't appear in which, does anyone know how I would resolve that
[04:09] <froduntu> hey everybody listen, codecaine absolutely rocks
[04:09] <froduntu> codecaine: thank you man
[04:09] <codecaine> np
[04:09] <PCcertified> whats that? codeine on cocaine?
[04:09] <froduntu> even though it should have been simple it was driving me nuts
[04:09] <codecaine> codecaine = addicting to programming code
[04:09] <froduntu> PCcertified: codecaine helped me with a command
[04:09] <froduntu> hahahaha
[04:09] <Roughneck_cowboy> hello I just need some help, few hours ago my Nvidia9600GT was already active in 1680x1050 but after a reset It goes down by default at 800x600 it could be a Xorg-conf problem ?
[04:10] <froduntu> yeah I know the bugg
[04:10] <froduntu> sorry bug
[04:10] <usser> Roughneck_cowboy, did u do update recently?
[04:10] <froduntu> codecaine: I know this is going to sound stupid but I do batch scripting
[04:10] <tj83> PCcertified... http://www.debian.pastebin.com/m42e5d9dc
[04:10] <froduntu> I would dare insult anybody by calling it programming
[04:10] <Roughneck_cowboy> I just installed the driver few hours ago
[04:11] <Mr_Bad_News> if iwlist scan outputs a wireless networks quality 7/70 but the nm-applet has 90% what should i believe?
[04:11] <froduntu> but I really do a lot of it
[04:11] <PCcertified> frod batch scripting is noble
[04:11] <froduntu> yeah I know
[04:11] <Roughneck_cowboy> worked nicely with Nvidia driver
[04:11] <froduntu> but tell that to a C programmer
[04:11] <codecaine> It has fundamentals of programming but its scripting
[04:11] <PCcertified> I do web scripting
[04:11] <froduntu> adn they'l spit you in th eface
[04:11] <froduntu> PCcertified: I wish I'd have the time, even though I'm getting there
[04:12] <codecaine> I like python also for scripting :)
[04:12] <narothepharoh> just updated firefox and its not working now? firefox 3 beta 5
[04:12] <froduntu> the problem is that I work fixing computers so 8 to 5 I'm removing viruses
[04:12] <froduntu> and building Sh$$5##%^*ty computers
[04:12] <Jester45> froduntu: so you install ubuntu all day?
[04:12] <codecaine> sometimes in pascal, c, or c++ I don't feel like long coding I can do quick faster string manipulations in python
[04:12] <froduntu> I wish
[04:12] <Roughneck_cowboy> anyone have an idea to solve the problem ?
[04:12] <froduntu> no, I work for a small computer repair ship
[04:13] <froduntu> I mean shop
[04:13] <jack-desktop> usser, i just installed restricted-extras and it still didnt fix the sound in Movie Player or VLC
[04:13] <codecaine> Roughneck_cowboy just ask the question :)
[04:13] <froduntu> so I only get to do more interesting stuff when I get back from work
[04:13] <froduntu> like now
[04:13] <Roughneck_cowboy> ou do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server.     Thats what the Nvidia programm told

[04:16] <codecaine> Maybe I don't consider myself a advance user yet, but I know my way around.
[04:16] <MSTK> what's wrong with it, narothepharoh?
[04:16] <kenshin> I still can't get my ubuntu to get network from my router :(
[04:16] <MSTK> does it start up
[04:16] <komputeran> search for gisomount
[04:16] <Roughneck_cowboy> ok my question is : how can I correct the Xorg to make my driver & Nvidia working
[04:16] <Roughneck_cowboy> ?
[04:17] <codecaine> you already installed the nvidia drivers?
[04:17] <komputeran> boring
[04:17] <amenado> kenshin-> which nic interface?
[04:17] <BeeBuu> how to know what's upload via SFTP?
[04:17] <Roughneck_cowboy> You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server.    How can I do that ?
[04:17] <m_newton> Anyone know what a sabayon user is?????
[04:17] <BeeBuu> how to know what's uploaded via SFTP?
[04:18] <transience> does anyone know how to get amarok to work with keyboard media player buttons?
[04:18] <codecaine> ctrl alt backspace or just logged out of ubuntu and log back in
[04:18] <kenshin> amenado, i don't know it's built in with my board
[04:18] <wers> what's the keybind for switching tabs on epiphany?
[04:18] <dthacker> m_newton: where are you seeing this?
[04:18] <jack-desktop> usser, that did not work
[04:18] <yojesus> how do i make a file into a root file
[04:18] <kevinmcq__> any thinkpad users in here? (no one is responding in ##ibmthinkpad)
[04:18] <codecaine> type sudo nvidia-xconfig need root privledge to do it
[04:18] <amenado> kenshin-> what have you done to troubleshoot it?
[04:18] <kenshin> amenado, mii-tool gives eth0 link ok
[04:18] <jack-desktop> usser, ALAS works in VLC
[04:18] <IpodLinux> Have anyone played N (the game) on their machine? I can't seem to get controls to work on mine
[04:18] <kenshin> amenado
[04:18] <yojesus> wait what howe do i doit
[04:18] <kenshin> http://paste.ubuntu.com/15748/
[04:18] <kenshin> http://paste.ubuntu.com/15750/
[04:19] <m_newton> I have not created this account, but when i go to Users settings in Administrator i see a Sabayon user
[04:19] <kenshin> the router ip doesn't even respond to pings
[04:19] <yojesus> codecaine: wat do u mean
[04:19] <jack-desktop> usser, i just set everything in my Sound settings to ALAS
[04:19] <Roughneck_cowboy> ok I noticed the process, is that all ?
[04:19] <m_newton> The home directory /var/run/sabayon-admin
[04:19] <usser> jack-desktop, good :)
[04:19] <codecaine> was replaying to Roughneck_cowboy yojesus
[04:20] <kenshin> the led doesn't even flash when i'm in ubuntu
[04:20] <kenshin> PS: im in a xp machine now
[04:20] <amenado> kenshin-> now paste your   route -n and cat /etc/resolv.conf  results
I have not created this account, but when i go to Users settings in Administrator i see a Sabayon user; aslo  The home directory /var/run/sabayon-admin
[04:20] <codecaine> but to answer your questions yojesus you would use chown
[04:20] <amenado> !who | kenshin
[04:20] <codecaine> sudo chown thefile root
[04:20] <kenshin> i manually put dns servers and static ips, but still won't budge
[04:21] <Chrysalis> whats the equivalent to the Tahoma font in linux
[04:21] <kenshin> hmm
[04:21] <kenshin> !tab
[04:21] <rice> Oi, does anybody know the command to start a dockable app in the dock (I remember it's like "$ <app-command> && docked" or something similar)
[04:21] <codecaine> I mean sudo chown root thefile
this user has no privalages though and my sudo passwd wont let me login into this account. This is not the root passwd only the sudo passwd
[04:21] <froduntu> codecaine: it works like a charm
[04:21] <Carbonflux> you mean this m_newton ? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabayon_Linux
[04:22] <transience> does anyone know how to get amarok to work with keyboard media player buttons? I have a microsoft wireless keyboard.
[04:22] <kenshin> !tab amenado
[04:22] <kenshin> lol
[04:22] <Carbonflux> m_newton, maybe you mean this: http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/gnome/sabayon
 Whoa, actually i have ubuntu hardy heron
[04:23] <amenado> kenshin-> you type the first few chars of my nick then tab to complete
[04:23] <kenshin> huh?
[04:24] <jramsey> in what dir is the sudoers file?
[04:24]  * Carbonflux collects his check from google
[04:24] <kenshin> like amenado thanks amenado for amenado reminding me amenado that amenado i know amenado how to use amenado this
[04:24] <fooks> does anyone know of any irc channels for engineering?
[04:24] <fooks> mainly, electrical engineering?
[04:24] <kamiro87> does anyone know how to stop x from starting when runlevel 3 is entered?
[04:24] <kamiro87> in ubuntu 8.04
[04:25] <amenado> kamiro87-> in level 2-5,  X is active
 Close, i got hardy so ...http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/gnome/sabayon (but what is this for, some sort of graphics config tool right)?
[04:25] <kamiro87> i would like to use the nvidia beta installer for the 9600 drivers but it keeps complaning about the active x server and when i boot in recovery mode into level 1 it complains that its in level one and wants to be in 3.
[04:26] <kamiro87> i'm playing whackamole with X
[04:26] <Terrasque> kamiro87: take a look in the /etc/rcX folders, check the symlinks there
[04:26] <kamiro87> ah
[04:26] <newbieOnShell> electrical engineering
[04:26] <usser> kaminix, just do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[04:26] <amenado> kamiro87-> perhaps you can try /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[04:26] <Jester45> or just kill X install then run it again
[04:26] <Terrasque> kamiro87: or just stop gdm, of course :D
[04:26] <jtaylor13> i put a dvd in and can NOT play it with totem or mplayer.
[04:26] <Carbonflux> m_newton, looks like its used for "nesting" one xserver inside another
[04:26] <newbieOnShell> use vlc
[04:27] <kamiro87> ok i'l try to stop gdm
[04:27] <Carbonflux> vlc is buggy in the context of pulse audio tho
[04:27] <kamiro87> (thats whats reviving it right?)
[04:27] <jtaylor13> group:i put a dvd in and can NOT play it with totem or mplayer.any help?
[04:27] <codecaine> you could make a script on startup and if its runlevel 3 to stop gdm
[04:27] <amenado> kenshin-> have i lost you yet?  paste  route -n  and cat /etc/resolv.conf
[04:27] <transience> does anyone know how to get amarok to work with keyboard media player buttons?
[04:27] <froduntu> is there a way to have irc ignore all of this server stuff
[04:27] <newbieOnShell> no
[04:27] <froduntu> such and such joins or leaves
[04:27] <froduntu> etc.
[04:27] <froduntu> hm
[04:27] <Carbonflux> depends on your client
 srry for the noobish talk, but what does that mean exactly, is it like an emulation, a vertual desktop graphics configure user??
[04:28] <froduntu> I mean isn't there a way of telling xchat ok ignore that
[04:28] <codecaine> maybe if you made a filter to do it
[04:28] <Carbonflux> froduntu, yes there is
[04:28] <shane2peru> how about konversation?  can it filter that?
[04:28] <Flannel> shane2peru: yes
[04:28] <froduntu> Carbonflux: that would be super
[04:28] <shane2peru> Flannel: oooooh, how???
[04:28] <froduntu> thanks Carbonflux I'll look into it
[04:28] <Carbonflux> froduntu, right click on the channel buttons and deselect part/join messages
[04:28] <chris420> hi i am wondering how i can find out what network ports i have opened?
[04:28] <newbieOnShell> aids
[04:29] <Terrasque> chris420: netstat command
[04:29] <amenado> chris420-> lsof -i
[04:29] <froduntu> ohh
[04:29] <usser> chris420, nmap
[04:29] <jtaylor13> group: i click play dvd movie totem gives me the error ( AN ERROR OCCURRED) Under it says.Failed to connect stream:invalid argument.
[04:29] <froduntu> that is sooo much better already
[04:29] <chris420> or open i should say... as i have actually open none myself lol
[04:29] <chris420> sweet thank you...
[04:29] <khimera2000_> grrrr >.< i havent used IRC in a LONG TIME >.<
[04:29] <Carbonflux> m_newton, you know about how linux run's xserver and then a window manager like meta-city talks to the xserver and then gnome talks to metacity, all generating a gui in the end?
[04:30] <PCcertified> tj83 ROCKS
 can you elaborate, i have never heard of a  xserver
[04:30] <PCcertified> ;)
[04:30] <Roughneck_cowboy> I did not succed with "nvidia-xconfig"
[04:30] <Carbonflux> m_newton, there are times when you might want to run one xserver inside of another, its really a dev thing or only needed for very specific applications
[04:30] <shane2peru> Flannel: found it!  :)
[04:31] <froduntu> speaking of that has anybody here experimented with xming?
[04:31] <froduntu> I don't know if it is exactly that
[04:31] <shane2peru> froduntu: thanks for bringing that up, wow, that is much better!
[04:31] <will01> im trying to have a computer access music on a windows share over a vpn connection. is there a good program out there that would do that/
so it is, not a prank a friend played on me?
[04:31] <Carbonflux> m_newton, the xserver is what talks to the graphics hardware to put it very simply
[04:31] <codecaine> Roughneck_cowboy try jockey-gtk
[04:32] <Roughneck_cowboy> well I'm new in linux (2 days atm)
[04:32] <chmac> Anyone know a quick way to send a test system email to my username on Ubuntu?
So xserver basically a graphics driver so to speak
[04:32] <Carbonflux> m_newton, no, I think its part of Ubuntu, seems like you must have the nested xserver stuff installed, let me check my machine and see
[04:32] <froduntu> xming (if I remember correctly) is this little Xserver emulation for windows
[04:32] <PCcertified> Roughneck_cowboy: your nvidia-xconfig requires root to properly save the conf file.  try editing your menu to launch it with gksu
[04:32] <jramsey> anyone know why apache won't execute php in a .html file, even with the following in .htaccess: AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .htm
[04:32] <froduntu> where you can run with putty on a windows machine applications that are being served from an ubuntu workstation
[04:32] <froduntu> or ubuntu server
[04:32] <froduntu> it is really cool
[04:33] <Carbonflux> m_newton, no, its not like windows persay, its more of a graphics server that talks to the graphics drivers, linux gui has more layers then windows for example, its also far more modular :)
[04:33] <Terrasque> jramsey: because apache is more sane than you are? :)
[04:33] <jtaylor13> group: if you can"t play a simple dvd in ubuntu then what are people using it for other then surfing the net?
[04:33] <froduntu> the coolest part is that you could have everybody virtually surf the net from their dumb windows machines virus free
[04:33] <Roughneck_cowboy> do I have to type gksu ?
[04:33] <Mr_Bad_News> what is svn ?
[04:33] <chmac> Mr_Bad_News: Subversion
[04:33] <codecaine> yes roughneck_cowboy
[04:33] <Terrasque> jramsey: on a serious note.. It could be .htacces is disabled in server config, or limited
[04:33] <Mr_Bad_News> svn checkout http://svn.madwifi.org/madwifi/trunk/ madwifi-ng  command not found
[04:33] <Mr_Bad_News> ?
[04:33] <jramsey> Terrasque, there's nothing wrong with php code in .html files; that's why the AddType is available in .htaccess
[04:34] <chmac> Mr_Bad_News: You'll probably need to install subversion...
[04:34] <Roughneck_cowboy> and ? when edited ?
[04:34] <jramsey> Terrasque, how can i check if .htaccess is disabled?
[04:34] <Mr_Bad_News> whats the package name chmac ?
[04:34] <chmac> Mr_Bad_News: svn :)
[04:34] <codecaine> you just check enabled enabled accelerated graphics
[04:34] <froduntu> well people, I think it is night night for me
[04:34] <froduntu> guys, thanks
[04:34] <Mr_Bad_News> not found
[04:34] <Roughneck_cowboy> ok I'm trying
[04:34] <froduntu> codecaine: you were superb my friend
[04:35] <Terrasque> jramsey: check the apache config files? Uusually you can turn on or off all or parts of what htacces can change, per directory basis if needed
[04:35] <froduntu> thanks a lot once again
[04:35] <chmac> Mr_Bad_News: Hmm, I'm pretty sure it's called svn...
[04:35] <codecaine> :)
[04:35] <codecaine> np
[04:35] <Carbonflux> m_newton, I don't have that user on my machine, I am not sure whats up, it could be you installed something that installed the nested x server stuff
[04:35] <joshual> suddenly plugging in my mp3 player everything is read only...
[04:35] <jtaylor13> group: what can you use to watch a dvd? i tied totem.mplayer it says audio out put busy
[04:35] <chmac> Mr_Bad_News: It's called subversion, not svn, sorry
 Ya probably some dependencies that i dont need or software
[04:36] <joshual> cant copy to
[04:36] <wepeel> Hi everybody. Fresh install of hardy on my laop top. Has anyone had trouble with flash being sloooow on ff3?
[04:36] <rich_freecomm> has anyone ever used 'dump' and 'restore'? Does it (b|g)zip?
[04:37] <Carbonflux> m_newton, ya, not sure about the issues related to deleting it, I can see why you asked tho, I would worry about getting hacked if I did not understand why that account is there, you said a friend could be playing a joke on you? other people have access to this machine?
[04:37] <Terrasque> jramsey: look for AllowOverride, think thats what it was called
[04:37] <wepeel> like, the maps on weather.com are really slow
[04:37] <codecaine> wepeel no but they had 2 flash installed and had to unistall both flashes then install just one
[04:37] <jramsey> Terrasque, yeah that's what i'm looking for now; but i have to find the config file first!
[04:37] <codecaine> caused firefox to crash a lot
[04:37] <kesi> can anyone help me with a wifi wpa2 issue?  Sometimes I can connect and sometimes, like now, I can't.  Usually deleting the network from the list does this trick but not tonight. I've rebooted the router and the computer.  It's WPA2 TKIP.
[04:37] <wepeel> codecaine, ah...flashplugin-nonfree and...?
[04:37] <codecaine> yea thats a good plugin
[04:37] <chmac> Anyone know if I have to do anything to get mail working locally?
[04:38] <chmac> I have nothing in /var/mail/ - but I have cron jobs set to echo errors...
[04:38] <wepeel> codecaine, know what the other plug was? Did it cause flash to not work at all?
[04:38] <codecaine> I would open up synapitcs and type flash and look for multiple flash for monzilla installed
[04:38] <Carbonflux> m_newton, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4909036
[04:38] <wepeel> codecaine, good call thanks
[04:38] <codecaine> can't remember off the back of my head I know its all over google
[04:38] <narothepharoh> just updated firefox and its not working now? firefox 3 beta 5 ??
[04:39] <jramsey> Terrasque, how do i restart apache?
[04:39] <prem> what is the best way to partition a 160 GB hard disk to install ubuntu
[04:39] <wepeel> cusious, however, it can't be my vid driver as everything else is wicked fast, right?
[04:39] <wepeel> *curious
[04:39] <Flannel> jramsey: sudo /etc/init.d/apache restart
[04:39] <[RICE]> @narothepharoh, how is it not working? Explain.
[04:39] <jramsey> Flannel, txs
[04:39] <obione> jra,   sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[04:39] <m_newton> What is DSA?
[04:39] <PCcertified> prem is this your first linux install
[04:39] <Terrasque> jramsey: apache2ctl restart if you have apache2, or using /etc/init.d/apache2 script
[04:39] <codecaine> its probably just firefox
[04:39] <Terrasque> jramsey: just for the record, I don't think moving html to php is a good long term idea. There are reasons for them being different :)
[04:39] <prem> no

[04:40] <wepeel> codecaine, I'll bide my time untl full release then :)
[04:40] <Carbonflux> m_newton, it looks like in this case sabayon can be used to manage more then one gnome user profile
[04:40] <wepeel> so, anyone had trouble upgrading to hardy from 6.10, ha.ha.
[04:40] <[RICE]> Wow... weird. No idea.
[04:40] <wepeel> the machine I'm on now is running 6.10 and I think I'll upgrade or clean install. likely the second is best, no?
[04:40] <chris420> sweet nmap sems to know what the hell is going on haha thanks to who ever  turned me to it.... piece out
[04:40] <narothepharoh> #Xubuntu
[04:41] <amenado> wepeel-> clean install
[04:41] <codecaine> I hate upgrade I just fresh install all the time :) can copy a list of dpkg installs
[04:41] <codecaine> :)
[04:41] <Carbonflux> m_newton, at a guess I don't think its a problem, removing it might be a problem if you have several gnome profiles etc, seems like the main use is to manage settings for these profiles
 cool, i just have my username and root, not much to manage so to speak
[04:41] <jramsey> Terrasque, it is a great idea if .htm/.html files are linked in search engines and you want to make a site dynamic; this is how it's done, e.g. <?php include("index.php"); ?>
[04:41] <Terrasque> wepeel: from 6.10 you have to do a lot of upgrades.. first to 7.04 then to 7.10 and then to 8.04 iirc
[04:41] <wepeel> amenado, because of the old version or because hardy is best from clean install?
[04:41] <chmac> Does anybody know if there is a default MTA installed on Ubuntu?
[04:41] <amenado> wepeel-> clean install is much better
[04:41] <Rayvis> Anyone know a good online linux game, preferably an mmorpg?
[04:41] <wepeel> I thought so, too, but I had no backup for that opinion
[04:42] <PCcertified> I'm using the latest ubuntu 8.04 LTS and it's cool, tried Debian and both kubuntu's first
[04:42] <PCcertified> EVE ONLINE
[04:42] <Terrasque> jramsey: it also means that apache have to run all html files in that dir through the php processor, and some programs and systems can get confused. And it's messy :)
sort of a trivial thing but how does one (Remote closed the connection)
[04:42] <Rayvis> also preferably free
[04:42] <kdc1956> bxflag
[04:42] <PCcertified> if you like space games. they have a linux client
[04:42] <kdc1956> bz
[04:43] <wepeel> Rayvis, try Runescape
[04:43] <wepeel> it's got nothing to do with linux, but it's a decent free MMORPG
[04:43] <jramsey> Terrasque, running all .html files thru the php processor or having php spit out html, what's the difference?
[04:43] <Roughneck_cowboy> gksu  =>  Gtk - Warning ** cannot open display
[04:44] <jramsey> the php processor still has to run
[04:44] <Carbonflux> m_newton, this is a fairly new install? seems like you might have installed it as a dependency or something, it does not seem like the kind of thing one would install without knowing what it is. One thing you can try is go into the Synaptic package manager and select it, look at the dependencies tab in the info display, or you can mark it for removal and see what it wants to remove in addition, then unmark it if that seems bad.
[04:44] <chmac> jramsey: The former allows you to use <?php ?> tags in your HTML files, the latter does not
[04:44] <will01> how do i mount a samba share to a local folder?
[04:44] <chmac> will01: Try Places > Connect to Server
[04:44] <jramsey> chmac, precisely ... and the former lets google linked pages remain intact with php added
[04:44] <Daisuke_Ido> runescape's engine would have been embarrassing 8 years ago, let alone now -_-
[04:44] <kenshin> I had network issues
[04:44] <squidly> does anyone have a recomendation for a p2p application that is easy to use for a linux/computer newb?
[04:44] <Rayvis> Has anyone played Planeshift?
[04:45] <kenshin> Now ubuntu will just not start
[04:45] <kenshin> :|
[04:45] <kenshin> i see the boot screen and i login
[04:45] <Terrasque> jramsey: not for static html files, saves the server for a lot of work. There are also some cosmetic and structural reasons. You could also use the rewrite module to send visitors from the html page to the php page.
[04:45] <Roughneck_cowboy> Anyone could help me ?
[04:45] <will01> chmac, what im trying to do is set it up so that amarok can see it and use that as its collection folder
[04:45] <wepeel> Daisuke_Ido, doesn't mean it's not fun
[04:45] <Rayvis> Squidly: I use Frostwire
[04:45] <narothepharoh> just updated firefox and its not working now? firefox 3 beta 5
[04:45] <squidly> Rayvis: ok thanks. I usualy use torrents but my gf needs something easier :D
[04:45] <PCcertified> roughneck try this gksu /usr/bin/nvidia-settings
[04:45] <jramsey> Terrasque, agreed
[04:45] <kenshin> then i see a white box and the computer just freezes
[04:45] <Rayvis> Squidly: There's also Nicotine+ which is a Soulseek client for linux
[04:46] <Daisuke_Ido> wepeel: i'm a drod addict, i can attest to the fact that games don't need fancy graphics to be good, but it would turn most gamers away pretty quick
[04:46] <PCcertified> you can use synaptec to install it if it's ot installed
[04:46] <Roughneck_cowboy> ok
[04:46] <chmac> jramsey: I'd recommend against running all your html files through the PHP process if you're going to experience any kind of load
[04:46] <chmac> jramsey: You can use 301 redirects to redirect to the new PHP pages
[04:46] <wepeel> Daisuke_Ido, fair enough :)
 I dont see any harm in keeping it, it doesnt seem to have any admin privlages. No harm can occur, unless sudo passwd  is compramised, it is not in the root group so that is good, I think i will just keep it till it gets in the way
[04:46] <squidly> Rayvis: they both work well?
[04:46] <PCcertified> I'
[04:46] <squidly> in a gui?
[04:46] <PCcertified> I'
[04:46] <chmac> jramsey: Or better, use pretty urls like /contact/blah/etc/ - then you can respond with HTML / PHP / whatever else
[04:46] <PCcertified> I'll b back. gotta reload my X
[04:46] <wepeel> Daisuke_Ido, probably just my type of gameplay I guess
[04:46] <chmac> will01: Does Places > Connect to Server not mount it for you somewhere?
[04:46] <jramsey> chmac, yep
[04:46] <Carbonflux> m_newton, ya I agree, kind of scary tho heh, until you know what it is. :)
[04:46] <chmac> will01: Or do you want to mount it automatically at boot?
[04:47] <Daisuke_Ido> wepeel: nothing wrong with that at all :)  if you like strategy/action games, check drod out - the architect edition is free as in beer
[04:47] <Daisuke_Ido> and available in linux flavour!
[04:47] <hisingh1> Anyone familiar with the term DHS?? i found this term in the ssh folder in etc. Is it like PGP????
[04:47] <chmac> jramsey: The other advantage of linking to directories instead of files is that you can very quickly replace dynamic PHP files with static HTML files if you get "dugg" / etc
[04:48] <kenshin> amenado!
[04:48] <will01> chmac, it mounts, id like it to mount automatically at boot, but what id first like to do is connect it so that i can actually retrieve the music
[04:48] <narothepharoh> just updated firefox and its not working now? firefox 3 beta 5
[04:48] <Daisuke_Ido> hisingh1: department of homeland security?
[04:48] <chmac> will01: So if it mounts through Places > Connect to Server, can you not load the music from them?
[04:48] <chmac> will01: Sorry, from there
[04:48] <wepeel> Daisuke_Ido, Drod looks rather Zelda-esque...will try thanks!
[04:48] <usser> narothepharoh, do sudo killall -9 firefox-bin
[04:48] <Rayvis> Squidly: I haven't used Nicotine+ much but Frostwire works as well as the Windows Client, It's pretty much the pay version of Limewire, but free
[04:49] <chmac> narothepharoh: Only run that command if you want to kill all running firefox instances
[04:49] <Daisuke_Ido> wepeel: far from zelda-esque, it's actually turn-based, which seems odd until you play
[04:49] <will01>  chmac well the music player is trying but amarok cannot see the folder
 I was scared that my friend had accessed my computer or i had been hacked. First time for everything i guess
[04:49] <chmac> narothepharoh: On the whole server
[04:49] <usser> narothepharoh, and then run firefox from the terminal see if u get any errors
[04:49] <codecaine> just killall firefox-bin -9 is last resort
[04:49] <squidly> Rayvis: ok awesome that is what I'm looking for
[04:49] <chmac> will01: So the problem is not mount related at this point?
[04:49] <kenshin> hey amenado
[04:49] <hisingh1> Anyone familiar with the term DHS?? i found this term in the ssh folder in etc. Is it like PGP????
[04:49] <will01> chmac no i guess not
[04:49] <Daisuke_Ido> !repeat | hisingh1
[04:49] <kenshin> !who
[04:50] <chuy_max> hi, I have a hardy heron CD, but it is not the stable one, its a daily build, how can I now when it was built?
[04:50] <squidly> Rayvis: any iptables issues I should look out for?
[04:50] <Rayvis> Squidly: Glad I could be of help. Frostwire is also a BitTorrent client as well
[04:50] <JonasNZ> I have an ldap server and another box authenticating its users against the ldap, i can login, and i get any groups that are in the ldap for that user, but the user is always in the root group any ideas?
[04:50] <Rayvis> Squidly: Not that I'm aware of
[04:50] <squidly> Rayvis: yea. that will work for her with a gui. I need to get her used to the cli so I can get her to use screen for torrents :D
[04:50] <hisingh1> srry !ubottu
[04:50] <wepeel> aw gee
[04:51] <wepeel> to clean install my machine will take about 8 DVDs for backup
[04:51] <wepeel> which I do not have tonight
[04:51] <codecaine> whys that?
[04:51] <Rayvis> How do I reply when someone messages me privately?
[04:51] <Roughneck_cowboy> gksu /usr/bin/nvidia-settings  => Cannot open display
[04:51] <codecaine> Rayvis /msg username yourmessage
[04:51] <squidly> Rayvis: what im client are you using?
[04:51] <m_newton> Is it possible to run mozilla firefox using ssh? ssh -X ... does not work :( Help!
[04:52] <JuzzyD_> I think i might stab my gfx card in the face, or alternatively, does anyone know why my x800 flakes out when asked to render anything using 3d effects
[04:52] <Daisuke_Ido> wepeel: in the future, put / and /home on separate partitions :)
[04:52] <wepeel> codecaine, fiels, mp3s etc
[04:52] <narothepharoh> usser: same thing it gives me this error I cant get online to paste
[04:52] <Rayvis> Squidly: I'm using XChat
[04:52] <wepeel> Daisuke_Ido, good idea
[04:52] <JuzzyD_> It kind of flashes, sometimes showing the 3d image, sometimes showing the desktop
[04:52] <codecaine> oh I always keep that type of stuff on external hds :)
[04:52] <chuy_max> hi, I have a hardy heron CD, but it is not the stable one, its a daily build, how can I now when it was built?
[04:52] <darcknite> hello ppl
[04:52] <squidly> Rayvis: /dialog $USERNAME opens a chat windows,
[04:52] <Terrasque> wepeel: I've upgraded a 6.10, or upgrading to be exact. Working on upgrading to 7.10 atm. Lots of cruft hanging around, and it's going to need another upgrade before its at 8.04
[04:52] <wepeel> well, can I repartition and just move stuff?
[04:52] <usser> narothepharoh, sudo apt-get remove purge firefox && sudo apt-get install firefox
[04:52] <rkazak> chuy_max: The date the files were burned onto the disk...
[04:53] <wepeel> that seems doable
[04:53] <rich_freecomm> has anyone ever used 'dump' and 'restore'? Does it (b|g)zip?
[04:53] <usser> narothepharoh, sudo apt-get remove --purge sorry
[04:53] <Terrasque> wepeel: and thats why having /home on a seperate partition is a stellar idea ;)
[04:54] <wepeel> I am having a momemnt of enlightenment ;)
[04:54] <m_newton> !<usser> what is the diffrence btwn remove and purge??
[04:54] <wepeel> ok
[04:54] <darcknite> i need heeeelp.... i installed ubuntu 8.4 and am really happy except a minor glitch... my broadband connection is very very slow....but the same in xp is fast...any workarounds??????
[04:54] <wepeel> so
[04:54] <wepeel> let's say I partition and move ./home to another partition
[04:54] <usser> m_newton, --purge also deletes any config files or other files created by the program in the process
[04:55] <Cogumelo_> anyone can help me?
[04:55] <m_newton> oh
[04:55] <Cogumelo_> i need configure my SiS 760GX
[04:55] <Terrasque> usser: except the user's own files
[04:55] <wepeel> then, I install 8.04 on the now /home-less partition...
[04:55] <hisingh1> exit
[04:55] <chuy_max> rkazak, ok thanks, I was not sure about that, the day it was built might not be the same as when it was burnt
[04:55] <Terrasque> wepeel: and under install, tell it to use your home partition for /home
[04:55] <wepeel> won't there be a /home on the nes intall
[04:55] <Cogumelo_> i install ubuntu 8.04 but how i optimized my vga card? is a onboard SiS 760GX
[04:55] <wepeel> ah
[04:55] <usser> Terrasque, right
[04:55] <narothepharoh> usser: same thing it gives me the same error
[04:56] <wepeel> yes, that makes sense
[04:56] <wepeel> thansk !
[04:56] <wepeel> thanks!
[04:56] <usser> narothepharoh, does it even start?
[04:56] <m_newton> Hey, Is it possible to make an aliase that works on irssi???
[04:56] <narothepharoh> it starts but gives me this error sorry i cant paste

[04:57] <Terrasque> wepeel: good luck :) it should be just to select manual partition, select your root partiton, tell it to format it and use as root, select your home partition, tell it not to format it, and use it as /home :)
[04:58] <wepeel> and this shouldn't cause my programs to freak out, even though they are using 6.10 version prefs in /home to run 8.04 version ?
[04:58] <Miesco> Does anyone connecting to a wireless router have to keep reseting the network settings?
[04:58] <anonqwerty02> I'm usually a mac user.  Does anyone know a way to switch the Ctrl and Alt keys in Ubuntu so it's more similar to the mac experience?
[04:58] <[RICE]> @narothepharoh, have you tried reinstalling Firefox?
[04:58] <Terrasque> wepeel: you might find some problems here and there.
[04:58] <narothepharoh> yes i just did
[04:58] <usser> narothepharoh, try opera wget http://ftp.iasi.roedu.net/mirrors/ftp.opera.com/linux/950b2/final/en/i386/static/opera-static_9.50b2-20080422.9-static-qt_en_i386.deb
[04:58] <rkazak> chuy_max: maybe look inside a static library, hmm what about the file /etc/*release*
[04:59] <usser> narothepharoh, sudo dpkg -i opera-static*
[04:59] <a7c> how exactly do I install ndiswrapper properly?
[04:59] <wepeel> Terrasque, notably in version changes? HTe two programs I use the most would have version jumps (ff and kile)
[04:59] <darcknite> i need heeeelp.... i installed ubuntu 8.4 and am really happy except a minor glitch... my broadband connection is very very slow....but the same in xp is fast...any workarounds??????
[04:59] <m_newton> what is oh no backwards??
[05:00] <wepeel> a phrase?
[05:00] <Terrasque> wepeel: have no idea tbh. But those files wouldn't be touched if you went the long way (upgrading) either. So I guess the programs can handle it.
[05:00] <m_newton> sry for last comment
[05:00] <Terrasque> wepeel: never tried that stund with a desktop tho, so can't know
[05:00] <anonqwerty02> darcknite, I've found that sometimes a network card can be really slow in linux for no particular reason.  Do you have another card you can try?
[05:00] <a7c> how exactly do I install ndiswrapper properly?
[05:00] <[RICE]> @a7c, You get the .deb package and open it to install ndiswrapper. And then follow the steps in your system documentation. You may need to go a few steps furtehr though.
[05:00] <wepeel> Terrasque, fair enough. I'll give it a try tomorrow, thaks for the help
[05:00] <m_newton> How do i configure apachi?
[05:01] <a7c> @[rice]: the package i have is .tar.tar -.- not .deb
[05:01] <Terrasque> wepeel: no problem, and once again, good luck :)
[05:01] <wepeel> Terrasque, ty :)
[05:01] <Rayvis> My wireless quit working properly about 2 days ago. It will stay connected for about 10 minutes or so then quit working, but still says it's connected and I have to restart the computer for it to work again, but it quits after about 10 minutes again. Anyone know a fix for this?
[05:01] <[RICE]> Ew, that's nasty. Google ndiswrapper and you'll find a page with a deb somewhere (can't remember where).
[05:01] <a7c> alrighty, thanks RICE
[05:01] <wepeel> 4Rayvis, and it worked properly before that?
[05:02] <wepeel> Rayvis, and did you update between the working properly and the not working properly
[05:02] <[RICE]> @a7c, No problem. There will probably be a little driver setup guide you can get either with or right next to the deb.
[05:04] <wepeel> Rayvis, is this Hardy?
[05:04] <selje> "May 31 06:01:37 ubuntulaptop sudo:    selje : unable to resolve host ubuntulaptop" anybody knows how to solve this problem?

[05:04] <poopha> I just installed ubuntu 8.04 and I need to get my wireless working
[05:04] <wepeel> rayvis, Hurm, is it at every wireless access point you use?
[05:05] <poopha> I went to the restricted drivers thing but it didnt have the wireless driver on it like it did in 7.10
[05:05] <Terrasque> selje: /etc/hosts i guess
[05:05] <selje> cant get my administation autorisation to start
[05:05] <garrettkajmowicz> Where can I point apt at so that I get updates for 6.10 (I'm doing this in preparation to upgrade my system)
[05:05] <poopha> can someone help me in a private message?
[05:06] <wepeel> Rayvis, Ok, Have you set up a location in the network window for this connection?

[05:08] <justm1> selje why would you want to run as admin
[05:08] <poopha> I used the one that was installed through the restricted drivers
[05:08] <a7c> RICE: I can't seem to find a ndiswrapper.deb download...little help?
[05:08] <wepeel> Rayvis, I'm new to Hardy's network setup, but that worked for me after I had the same problem you did
[05:08] <selje> because i need to install the upgrades justm1
[05:08] <usser> poopha, what was the name of it?
[05:08] <wepeel> Rayvis, is it WEP?
[05:08] <poopha> I dont remember broadcom somthing

[05:09] <selje> i cant unistall/install programs, i have over 200 updates waiting, because of this
[05:09] <fde> a7c: It is on the install CD... type sudo aptitude install ndiswrapper-utils and it'll grab it for you.
[05:09] <wepeel> Rayvis, then see if you get kicked off
[05:09] <a7c> fde: alright...attempting that -.-
[05:09] <wepeel> Rayvis, if so, try another network manager like Wicd
[05:09] <usser> poopha, oh i wouldnt know about it, should be in restricted manager
[05:10] <wepeel> Rayvis, at worst, you'll have to submit a bug report and wait :(
[05:10] <justm1> use synaptic    gksu /usr/sbin/synaptic
[05:10] <poopha> The wireless doesnt pop up at all there htough
[05:10] <poopha> should I try reinstalling it?
[05:10] <fde> usser: It's no longer called that, it's now called the more appropriate "Hardware Drivers" same app though (jockey-gtk)

[05:14] <Arrick> Right now, I have eth3 setup with a static IP, <IP_ADDRESS>... I can ping this server from my laptop on the same network, yet this same server cannot ping google.com, and also cant pull packages... any ideas?
[05:14] <rich_freecomm> partitions
[05:14] <Arrick> (there is no gui on this server)
[05:14] <Jaysun> (Trying to install apache/mysql/php on ubuntu 8.04 - no net access on ubuntu system) I've tried install apache first by downloading the packages from the net on my xp pc - but every package seems to depend on another, and it's just crazy going back and forth to/from computer =( It's really not going well..
[05:14] <rich_freecomm> the d=command 'dump'
[05:14] <a7c> fde: rather sure i have hardy...it came with a preset background of a heron -.- exact error is, "couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "ndiswrapper-utils-1.9"
[05:14] <rich_freecomm> - d=
[05:14] <Terrasque> selje: you should have a /etc/hosts with a few entries in. It's the static list of names and the ip they resolve to. The error you get is because the system can't find ubuntulaptop, probably because /etc/hosts is fucked up in some way
[05:14] <Flannel> Jaysun: Grab the server CD, you can install from that, or just install the packages from that.
[05:14] <kexp903> can ubuntu handle wide screens?
[05:14] <Flannel> kexp903: yes
[05:15] <kexp903> even wide screen lcd's
[05:15] <Terrasque> selje: you should have a line in the file that says "
[05:15] <justm1> jaysun what good are thewithout net?
[05:15] <Flannel> !language | Terrasque
[05:15] <justm1> setup net access
[05:15] <fde> a7c: Yes... but you have an internet connection on the machine you're using right now... so I can point you to where the .debs are, you can grab them and sneaker net them over...
[05:15] <rich_freecomm> Flannel: wasn't aware dump and restore had any other purposes than to backup partitions...ok..I'll re-read
[05:15] <Flannel> a7c: try apt-cache search ndiswrapper
[05:15] <DIL> kexp903: i am on a 22 and it is sweet how wide
[05:15] <Terrasque> selje: something like this : <IP_ADDRESS>       localhost.localdomain   localhost  ubuntulaptop
[05:15] <a7c> fde: i found a .deb file on my own, i'm going to give it a shot
[05:15] <selje> <IP_ADDRESS> localhost
[05:15] <selje> <IP_ADDRESS> ubuntulaptop.SIMPSON
[05:16] <selje> this is the entry in hosts
[05:16] <tesseracter_> hello. i'm installing a clean 8.04, just got a alfa 036H wireless card, but my google-fu is a bit off today. anyone got a sweet link to how to install the drivers?
[05:16] <Flannel> rich_freecomm: Well, dump and restore might've been arguments to some other program, they're not really specific to a particular domain (although those programs are)
[05:17] <selje> but i dont think the problem is there.. i dont get the admin autorisation window to open
[05:17] <Terrasque> selje: it might be the .SIMPSON part that throws it off. what's the search entry in /etc/resolv.conf ?
[05:17] <selje> SIMPSON is ny network
[05:17] <Arrick> how does one flush his dns cache from terminal?
[05:17] <rich_freecomm> oh ok..then let me rephrase,...has anyone ever used the shell commands of 'dump' and 'restore'? Does it (b|g)zip?
[05:17] <Terrasque> selje: yes, but does the laptop know that? :)
[05:17] <runlevel> in the LIVE CD 8.04 it detects my webcam fine but after i installed 8.04 it doesnt detect it.. how do i get the exact copy of the live cd installed so it works?
[05:17] <justm1> runlevel what webcam you got
[05:17] <runlevel> justm1,  Logitech QuickCam Fusion
[05:18] <Terrasque> Flannel: should I use b0rked from now on then?
[05:18] <Jaysun> Cheers Flannel, - I don't have the server CD, only the Desktop edition as a personal computer is still it's primary use - I've looked on the CD but have had no luck finding anything.. :$ Mind you, I've found that I'm quite computer-illiterate since trying out linux =P
[05:18] <Flannel> Terrasque: sure
[05:18] <selje> but i just need to get to the screen where i put in the password for admin autorisation
[05:18] <fde> runlevel: plug it in and type 'lsmod | grep gspca' ... any output?
[05:18] <runlevel> lsmod | grep gspca   returns nothing
[05:18] <selje> May 31 06:14:35 ubuntulaptop sudo:    selje : unable to resolve host ubuntulaptop
[05:18] <selje> May 31 06:17:01 ubuntulaptop CRON[6761]: pam_unix(cron:session): session opened for user root by (uid=0)
[05:18] <selje> May 31 06:17:01 ubuntulaptop CRON[6761]: pam_unix(cron:session): session closed for user root
[05:19] <selje> and thats the answer i get from auth.log
[05:19] <Flannel> Jaysun: http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/ server CD can be found there.  Once you've got the CD, and put it in to your desktop, sudo apt-cdrom add (or go through software sources) and then you can install those packages easily
[05:20] <runlevel> fde, lsmod | grep gspca   returns nothing
[05:20] <Terrasque> selje: and it clearly tells you it can't resolve the host ubuntulaptop, which is the machine its running on. And that makes sudo panic and refuse anyone to log in.
[05:20] <Kalamarencu> !vinagre
[05:20] <Kalamarencu> guys anyone knows what do I need to enable disable in Hardy to be able to log in remotely?
[05:20] <Miesco> How do I tell if I have a microphone built in my laptop?
[05:20] <Flannel> Kalamarencu: install openssh-server
[05:20] <a7c> @everyone: installed ndiswrapper-common...shows up in installed packages, however, "ndiswrapper -i bcmw15.inf" command returns "no versions of ndiswrapper found"
[05:21] <RoAkSoAx> Kalamarencu, log in remotely as in ssh ?
[05:21] <Kalamarencu> Miesco: usually the microphone is a little hole in your LCD check your computer specs
[05:21] <Jaysun> Ahh - alright, thanks Flannel :) I'll defenitely try that - will take a while for download to complete though.. Thanks though :)
[05:21] <Kalamarencu> Flannel:  I mean Remote Desktop Connection like a log me in client with vinagre
[05:21] <fde> !webcam | runlevel
[05:21] <Terrasque> Flannel: In case you haven't seen (and have a sense of humor), open http://insecure.org/stf/Nmap-3.50-Release.html and search for "b0rked" :)
[05:22] <fde> runlevel: See if something changed for that cam.
[05:22] <a7c> fde: could you pm me a link to that ndiswrapper.deb?
[05:22] <Rayvis> Anyone know a good ubuntu theme site?
[05:22] <Kalamarencu> RoAkSoAx: I meant control my computer remotley like Remote Desktop or logmein
[05:22] <rich_freecomm> hmm
[05:22] <rich_freecomm> !dump | grep zip
[05:22] <runlevel> thanks ill look into that
[05:22] <rich_freecomm> ok
[05:22] <Kalamarencu> Rayvis: other than gnome-look ?
[05:22] <rich_freecomm> cool
[05:23] <RoAkSoAx> Kalamarencu, System>Preferences>Remote Desktop
[05:23] <gregbrady> Any Open Office Base gurus out there tonight?
[05:23] <afallenhope> runlevel: also another idea is to get a PS2 EyeToy camera for like $20 and simply use that
[05:23] <runlevel> true
[05:23] <runlevel> good idea thanks man
[05:24] <neo_> hello
[05:24] <afallenhope> runlevel: no prob.
[05:24] <afallenhope> gregbrady: what do you need help with
[05:24] <alpharesearch> I lost the workspace switcher in the lower task bar, where is the configuration point?
[05:24] <rich_freecomm> heh It's just wrong to type 'man dump', almost as wrong as 'man mount'
[05:25] <van> could you teel me the cn ubuntu?
[05:25] <afallenhope> runlevel: I have a Ps2 EyeToy webcam and it works like a charm. frame rate andquality is beautiful
[05:25] <runlevel> badass
[05:25] <afallenhope> runlevel: works off the D-Link drivers.. but there's tutorials on google
[05:25] <schnauzer> I can't seem to sort my playlists in GTKPod; Anyone know of an ipod syncing program that'll let me do this?
[05:25] <runlevel> now i can get abunch of uniform lookin cams, and finally make a nice survailence system
[05:25] <Terrasque> rich_freecomm: what's worse, you can grep the man for release :)
[05:25] <gregbrady> afallenhope: When opening a Base file that worked just moments ago, it now gives a General Error.  Even the backup file from yesterday will not open.
[05:25] <rich_freecomm> heh
[05:25] <ZachIsHere> A long time ago I tried Ubuntu and there was a tool that let me adjust the volume level for individual applications running. I have Herdy now and that isn't around. Am I missing something? Really loved that feature.
[05:26] <garrettkajmowicz> How can I get the latest upgrades for my 6.10 system?  It looks likle the archives don't work any more.  I'm doing this in preparation of updgrading to a new release...
[05:26] <afallenhope> gregbrady: have you checked the permissions
[05:26] <alpharesearch> the setting in compizconfig for virtual horizontal desktops is set to 4
[05:26] <Kalamarencu> thanks RoAkSoAx it was right there :P I did not look hard enough.. will this allow me to use a VNC viewer from windows to connect to my desktop
[05:26] <Kalamarencu> !evolution
[05:26] <RoAkSoAx> Kalamarencu, yep
[05:26] <Kalamarencu> nice, thanks mate
[05:27] <RoAkSoAx> Kalamarencu, welcom ;)
[05:27] <rich_freecomm> kemee rivise the question once more: has anyone ever used the shell command 'dump -z' especially in dealing with making a non-tape backup of a partition
[05:27] <___Alex___> anyone know of a gnome panel applet that allows you to set your CPU frequency, like XFCE's panel applet?
[05:27] <joshual> hey folks is USP (ubuntu system panel) no longer active?
[05:27] <Leefmc> Flannel: ping
[05:27] <LaneLimited> Hello all! Might you suggest a good music player and organizer for ubuntu I can install and how to get it... Thanks everyone!
[05:27] <joshual> !usp
[05:27] <chmac> Anyone know how much authority this page has? https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/installation-guide/hppa/mail-setup.html
[05:28] <sgmadison> i have downloaded ubuntu-desktop it installs fine but after the loading screen goes to a black screen, same from livecd - this is an optiplex 745 that has installed debian and linuxmint just fine - any ideas?
[05:28] <Terrasque> LaneLimited: amarok
[05:28] <gregbrady> afallenhope: Permission are ok.  I have read/write
[05:28] <Arrick> !bridge
[05:28] <xocite> LaneLimited: mpd + sonata haha
[05:28] <Terrasque> LaneLimited: you find it in add/remove programs
[05:28] <pmartin> hey can any of you guys help me troubleshoot a really strange wireless problem i'm having?
[05:28] <Arrick> !network Bridge
[05:28] <Arrick> !network
[05:28] <Arrick> !lan
[05:28] <Arrick> grr
[05:28] <pmartin> No, no, nothing that a doc can help with, I guarantee taht
[05:29] <getoo> can i get a little help with vlc , i am trying to watch a movie and its all yellow
[05:29] <Arrick> who can point me to a wiki on how to setup a bridge betweed two gig etherenet ports?
[05:29] <pmartin> this is truly in the realm of absolutely the strangest wireless thing I have seen
[05:29] <getoo> anyway to remove that
[05:29] <fde> chmac: what do you mean "authority"? that describes the default mail server... you are free to pick and choose whatever you want, it's your machine
[05:29] <Arrick> I want eth2 and eth3 to use the same IP address
[05:29] <getoo> this is a dvd , but all my avi are kinda bright
[05:29] <chmac> fde: It says mutt and exim will be installed by default, which they're not on my system
[05:29] <SeaPhor> pmartin, please elaborate
[05:29] <LaneLimited> Terrasque: Thanks, I am installing it now
[05:29] <pmartin> Thanks SeaPhor
[05:30] <afallenhope> Arrick: so you want to bridge them>
[05:30] <pmartin> So I have a Vaio TXN25N
[05:30] <fde> chmac: They should be... certainly exim4
[05:30] <pmartin> it came with intel pro wireless 3945
[05:30] <chmac> fde: I'm wondering if it's community contributed documentation, wiki style, so it might be completely wrong, or if I should tell someone that it's not necessarily correct
[05:30] <Arrick> yes afallenhope
[05:30] <Terrasque> pmartin: well, it *is* wireless. I won't call it strange until it start sending pink ponies around the room.
[05:30] <afallenhope> !bridge | Arrick
[05:30] <Leefmc> Question: If a livecd version seems to be running fine, is it safe to assume a full install will work?
[05:30] <afallenhope> well that sucks
[05:30] <chmac> fde: Hmm, exim4 definitely wasn't and isn't installed, but I'm not sure why
[05:30] <SeaPhor> pmartin, whaoa
[05:30] <Arrick> afallenhope already tried that lol
[05:30] <pmartin> Well, i swapped this ipw3945 card with an atheros ar5006 based card
[05:30] <afallenhope> oaky..
[05:30] <chmac> fde: My /etc/aliases file was setup correctly though
[05:30] <PCcertified> Leefmc:  yes
[05:30] <SeaPhor> pmartin, please all on one line
[05:30] <sgmadison> i've been asking for 12 hours and no one has any idea?
[05:30] <afallenhope> Arrick: I remember seeing an application for that hold up
[05:30] <fde> chmac: It is wiki docs... but you can change it if it's completely wrong... I'm positive it's not though...
[05:31] <PCcertified> Leefmc:  it will work fine until you begin to modify it ;)
[05:31] <codename> I have 2 HDD's one of which has Ubuntu on it, and the other one has Vista, if I wanted to remove Vista how would I do it.
[05:31] <codename> on the other HDD
[05:31] <pmartin> because another os that i run doesn't support the ipw3945.  anyway, after rebooting wireless works fine, but the drivers it's using, according to NetworkManager is still teh iwl3945 drivers
[05:31] <chmac> fde: On my clean install, no mutt and no exim, actually, no working email at all
[05:31] <codename> let me see
[05:31] <afallenhope> Arrick: mind if I msg you?
[05:31] <Arrick> afallenhope dont forget, its a ubuntu *server* install no gui
[05:31] <fde> chmac: Note though that it describes the server distro... not the desktop system...
[05:31] <pmartin> This is confirmed by perusing the output of dmsg
[05:31] <PCcertified> SeaPhor: create a batch file
[05:31] <afallenhope> yeah
[05:32] <Arrick> go ahead afabian
[05:32] <Arrick> afallenhope ^
[05:32] <Terrasque> pmartin: same chipset?
[05:32] <dolphin_noel> is there some away to i enable the compiz water effect everytime o login to one acount?! to dont need to be allways pressing shift more f9
[05:32] <pmartin> Not even close, this is the ar5006x chipset, which would require madwifi drivers
[05:32] <van> could you tel me the china ubuntu server?
[05:32] <pmartin> That's why I am so confused right now
[05:32] <alpharesearch> I lost the workspace switcher in the lower task bar, where is the configuration point?
[05:32] <DIL> !ch
[05:32] <chmac> fde: Aha, ok, in which case it's probably correct
[05:33] <DIL> !cn
[05:33] <PCcertified> aside from the no gui, whats the diff between the server install and the egular install
[05:33] <alpharesearch> the setting in compizconfig for virtual horizontal desktops is set to 4
[05:33] <chmac> fde: I think this is the correct link for my i386 system https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/installation-guide/i386/mail-setup.html
[05:33] <Terrasque> pmartin: and you physically removed the old card from the machine? And it's working?
[05:33] <PCcertified> is it just a cleaner install with no X or gui
[05:33] <chmac> fde: It has the same info though, saying mutt / exim4 will be installed
[05:33] <___Alex___> ok, this doesn't make sense...  cpufreq-selector in gnome doesn't give me options to change CPU frequency (supposedly because it can't support it on my hardware?) but xfce can???
[05:33] <alan_m> van, heres an easier way to get a server close to you, click on software sources under system->administration
[05:33] <garrettkajmowicz> How can I get the latest upgrades for my 6.10 system?  It looks likle the archives don't work any more.  I'm doing this in preparation of updgrading to a new release...
[05:34] <alan_m> van, then click the download from box, and click other.
[05:34] <pmartin> Yeah, I have the old card right here in front of me, inserted the new card and all that...I even double checked the card itself to make sure I pulled the right one off the shelf
[05:34] <fde> chmac: Yup... you're right neither are on a desktop system... but on a server, yes
[05:34] <codename> Anyone?
[05:34] <Leefmc> Flannel: I am having trouble installing. I keep getting partition failures
[05:34] <codename> I have 2 HDD's one of which has Ubuntu on it, and the other one has Vista, if I wanted to remove Vista how would I do it. I wanted to add another Linux distro.
[05:34] <alan_m> van, then click select best server, it pings all our servers, and the one who has the best ping time...is the one it selects.
[05:34] <chmac> fde: I'd have thought at least exim would make sense on a desktop system, without it I wasn't getting any mails from cron, etc
[05:34] <Arrick> afallenhope go ahead and pm
[05:34] <Leefmc> Flannel: I even said screw it and tried to install a full install, its not letting me past the partition step
[05:34] <pmartin> I'm pretty sure I don't even have madwifi installed on my system right now
[05:35] <chmac> fde: Any idea how I'd go about notifying someone to update it, or can I edit it directly somewhere?
[05:35] <Flannel> Leefmc: What errors?
[05:35] <SeaPhor> PCcertified, ? why?
[05:35] <alan_m> im sorry, i know i threw the enter key all out crazy, if i tried to put that all on one line, it wouldnt have done it.
[05:35] <Terrasque> pmartin: Tux moves in mysterious ways? Be happy that the gods of networking have granted you wireless? TBH I have *no* idea what's causing it
[05:35] <pmartin> lol
[05:35] <fde> chmac: log in and hit "edit" at the top
[05:35] <van> o,i known,thanks
[05:35] <DIL> codename: just delete the partition
[05:35] <Leefmc> Flannel: Well first off, I should be using Guided Resize?
[05:35] <codename> how?
[05:35] <codename> Where do I do that at
[05:35] <pmartin> The only thing that worries me is that this might be a serious problem for my other OSes on my computer
[05:36] <Arrick> codename fdisk /dev/blah
[05:36] <chmac> fde: I don't see any login / edit / etc options on that page
[05:36] <alan_m> ah, sory then van :)
[05:36] <Arrick> then m for help
[05:36] <pmartin> Is it possible that the currently loaded driver is being reported wrong?
[05:36] <Flannel> Leefmc: or manual.  Manual isn't difficult, and the error could be with the guided portion, so try manual I suppose
[05:36] <chmac> fde: Looking at the homepage, it looks like that page is aimed at the "alternate" i386 install
[05:36] <Leefmc> Flannel: Crap heh, i just got an error, "Error informing the kernel about modifications to partition /dev/sda5"
[05:36] <fde> chmac: You have to log in to the wiki
[05:36] <codename> will fdisk work with vista?
[05:36] <afallenhope> Arrick:  I have
[05:36] <Leefmc> Flannel: Theres more too it, want it all?
[05:37] <DIL> codename: if you know the disk and partition cfdisk, fdisk, qtparted gpartedcan do it
[05:37] <Terrasque> pmartin: not dmesg, i think
[05:37] <Flannel> Leefmc: sure thing
[05:37] <Arrick> afallenhope sorry, didnt realise I had them ignored, lol, can you resend?
[05:37] <PCcertified> exit
[05:37] <PCcertified> lol
[05:37] <LaneLimited> Terrasque: Seems good this amarok,  thank you very much
[05:37] <Leefmc> Flannel: Error informing the kernel about modifications to partition /dev/sda5 -- Device or resource busy. This means Linux won't know about any changes you made to /dev/sda5 until you reboot -- so you shouldn't mount it or use it in any way before rebooting.
[05:37] <bpds> Anyone else having trouble with gnome-print not working in Hardy
[05:37] <neo_> How do I reinstalll the task bar?
[05:37] <neo_> the bottom bar that shows open programs
[05:37] <Terrasque> LaneLimited: good to hear you like it :)
[05:37] <Terrasque> pmartin: tried the card in the other os'es? The only explanation i can think of is that the chipset have enough similarities that the driver works on the new chipset too..
[05:38] <afallenhope> Arrick: sure
[05:38] <Leefmc> Flannel: Any thoughts as to whats wrong? I already tried to clear Windows (not that i _want_ to, but as a last resort..), so im almost afraid to even reboot.. in fear of a brick.
[05:39] <pmartin> Terrasque: Thanks for the help, I'm going to try it in another OS as soon as I get it installed (today is upgrade day for my secondary laptop)
[05:40] <chmac> fde: I can't find that documentation page on the wiki anywhere...
[05:40] <Leefmc> Flannel: It seems to just be having a bad time trying to override my harddrive.. ugh
[05:40] <Flannel> Leefmc: You won't need to clear windows.  Whether you did already remains to be seen.  Um, try quitting the installer, installing gparted, and then using that to resize/etc
[05:40] <Tweaker> Ok I got like a quick question, how do I get it so when I unplug my laptop it dosent beep? Its hard on my ears when Im listening to music!
[05:40] <Leefmc> Flannel: Qutting the installer into what, windows?
[05:40] <Flannel> Leefmc: No, Ubuntu
[05:41] <bpds> Anyone else having trouble with gnome-print not working in Hardy
[05:41] <Flannel> Leefmc: the LiveCD that you previously thought was a regular install ;)
[05:41] <Leefmc> Flannel: Oh right, when you said quit the installer i was thinking this LiveCD version heh
[05:41] <Leefmc> Flannel: So "gparted", google it? Or will it be in that package manager
[05:41] <Flannel> Leefmc: It'll be in the package manager
[05:42] <afallenhope> Anyone know the issue with Virtual Terminals? When I hit <CTRL> <ALT> <F 1-6> it sends me to a black screen rather than the virtual terminal. I hit <CTRL> <ALT> <F7>  and that does as it's supposed to

[05:43] <Tweaker> So....how do I get it so when I unplug/bump the powercord my laptop it dosent beep?
[05:43] <afallenhope> Tweaker: it's in the power settings
[05:43] <Tweaker> Thank you afallenhope let me check
[05:43] <Leefmc> Flannel: Gnome Partition Editor?
[05:44] <afallenhope> Tweaker: System>Preference>Power Management
[05:44] <Tweaker> Ok afallenhope: I have it unchecked yet its still beeping
[05:44] <Flannel> Leefmc: yes
[05:44] <Tweaker> Its under Extras: Use sound to notify of an event right?
[05:44] <afallenhope> Tweaker:  try clicking it... then unclicking it

[05:44] <mixed> i want to install the version of kde prior to 4.0, which app should I install??
[05:44] <Tweaker> afallenhope:  its still happening
[05:45] <Leefmc> Flannel: Seems it was already installed, however i loaded it and got that same kernel error
[05:45] <xaandy> is better, oss or alsa?
[05:45] <Leefmc> Flannel: "The kernel is unable to re-read the partitiontables on the following devices:
[05:45] <Leefmc> - /dev/sda"
[05:45] <Leefmc> Flannel: Because of this you will only have limited access to these devices. Unmount all mounted partitions on a device to get full access.
[05:45] <afallenhope> Tweaker: perhaps the battery is dead
[05:45] <jdrake> Is there any way of making a running process use less cpu or disk resources? I have changed the nice value to 19 and it still doesn't help.
[05:45] <Tweaker> afallenhope: Its 100% charged
[05:45] <ricket> How can I configure my system so that I can middle-click a window in the Window List to close it?
[05:46] <xaandy> is better, oss or alsa?
[05:46] <ricket> xaandy: alsa
[05:46] <Tweaker> it just irritates me because it sucks when Im listening to music and its in my lap and I bump the cord and it beeps.
[05:46] <bpds> Anyone else having trouble with gnome-print not working in Hardy
[05:46] <xaandy> ok
[05:46] <DIL> dont bump the cord
[05:46] <Flannel> Leefmc: Hmm, that sonds like its because your windows partition was mounted.  go to a terminal, sudo umount -a, and check if theres anything in /media/ (ls /media/)
[05:46] <a7c> any help?
[05:46] <Tweaker> Dil: That's kind of hard
[05:46] <Tweaker> if I shift it beeps
[05:46] <DIL> just kidding
[05:47] <Tweaker> Ill try a restart and if that doesn't work I will be back
[05:47] <afallenhope> Tweaker: I was going to suggest run a hard drive self test
[05:47] <a7c> when I run "ndiswrapper -i bcmwl5.inf", terminal returns error , "couldn't open bcmwl5.inf: No such file or directory at /usr/sbin/ndiswrapper-1.9 line 219" any ideas or fixes? I really need my darn wifi!
[05:47] <mixed> how do  install kde  3.5.9?
[05:47] <Flannel> mixed: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[05:47] <Leefmc> Flannel: Thoughts?
[05:48] <SeaPhor> a7c, are you in the dir where the file bcmwl5.inf is/resides?
[05:48] <mixed> flannel, will that install 3.5.9 or KDE 4.0??
[05:48] <mixed> !kde
[05:48] <garrettkajmowicz> How can I get the latest upgrades for my 6.10 system?  It looks likle the archives don't work any more.  I'm doing this in preparation of updgrading to a new release...
[05:48] <a7c> I assume so, it's on my desktop
[05:48] <usser> a7c, try to specify the full path to inf fule
[05:48] <Flannel> mixed: 3.5, 4.0 is only the remix
[05:48] <neo_> I deleted my bottom panel
[05:48] <DIL> a7c: netgear wg511t works right out the box
[05:48] <neo_> How do I get it backkkkkkkkkkkk
[05:48] <Flannel> garrettkajmowicz: You'll need to change your sources to point to old-releases.ubuntu.com
[05:48] <neo_> How do I get my bottom panel back????????
[05:48] <mixed> Flannel, thanks! I'll install it right now
[05:48] <drkokolok1> !kde4
[05:49] <a7c> usser: tried that, didn't work....DIL: I don't have a netgear...or money to buy one -.-
[05:49] <xenos_> aight dudes; why isn't rhythombox not detecting my ipod
[05:49] <SeaPhor> a7c, no then cd to the dir,, cd /home/<user>/desktop
[05:49] <codename> Could I technically format a Vista HDD with a Linux disc.
[05:49] <xenos_> !ipod
[05:49] <sabrebutt> Neo, right click the top panel and add a new one
[05:49] <codename> For example, I have 2 HDD's, and one has Ubuntu and one has Vista, I want the HDD with Vista to have Linux, so if I put in a Linux CD, could I reformat Windows Vista partition?
[05:49] <neo_> How do i get the bottom panel back
[05:49] <swazo> quick Q: can i substitute the cd of ubuntu ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro ) with a bootable thunmbdrive?
[05:49] <garrettkajmowicz> Flannel: Thanks!
[05:49] <neo_> comeone mannn its a easy asnwer
[05:50] <sabrebutt> neo_ right click the top panel and add a new one
[05:50] <SeaPhor> a7c, once there do ls  see if you see the file bcmwl5.inf
[05:50] <troxor> neo_: right click on top panel -> Add Panel
[05:50] <chuy_max> codename, you can repartition your drive
[05:50] <troxor> neo_: er, "New panel"
[05:50] <Tweaker> It didn't work :(
[05:50] <neo_> How do I make it
[05:50] <neo_> so that minimized windows can be clicked open there
[05:50] <troxor> Tweaker: modprobe -rv pcspkr ?
[05:50] <neo_> on the new panel
[05:51] <sabrebutt> neo_ right click the new panel
[05:51] <Tweaker> troxor:  let me try that
[05:51] <troxor> neo_: add the tasklist
[05:51] <sabrebutt> Click add to panel
[05:51] <ricket> neo_: right-click the new panel, add to panel, Window List
[05:51] <troxor> neo_: arg, Window List
[05:51] <mohadib> hello
[05:51] <troxor> that's what /me gets for trying to do it off memory :(
[05:51] <xenos_> just read the how-to; not very helpful!
[05:51] <Tweaker> troxor: ok it says the mod is not promitable
[05:52] <swazo> quick Q: can i substitute the cd of ubuntu ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro ) with a bootable thunmbdrive?
[05:52] <troxor> Tweaker: sudo modp...
[05:52] <mohadib> is it possible to shrink the *giant* pager in XFCE
[05:52] <meltingclock> would the jre be on the ubuntu desktop cd by any chance...? i added the cd as a source to check;with no luck but thought maybe it might be listed under a different package name...? (dialup heh, trying to avoid downloading a huge file)
[05:52] <Tweaker> whoops lol yea
[05:52] <troxor> mohadib: add more rows, or shrink the panel's size
[05:52] <mohadib> it has 4 rows
[05:52] <mohadib> and the panel is all the way across the screen
[05:52] <Tweaker> nope its still happening
[05:52] <Flannel> meltingclock: no, it wont
[05:53] <meltingclock> alright, thanks. figured that but wanted to double check
[05:53] <mohadib> troxor: any other ideas? :(
[05:53] <mixed> which default display manger for KDE do you recommend gdm or kdm??
[05:53] <troxor> Tweaker: General tab of Power Management Preferences -> untick "Use sound to notify in event of an error" ?
[05:53] <Tweaker> troxor:  that is off, so I don't know why it continues
[05:53] <troxor> mohadib: hm, iirc, the pager will scale to the height of the panel it's in
[05:54] <troxor> Tweaker: what about disabling sounds in Sound Preferences?
[05:54] <mohadib> troxor: i dont mind the hight
[05:54] <mohadib> troxor: its the width thats huge'
[05:54] <Tweaker> troxor: wouldn't that disable music?
[05:54] <joetheodd> after closing vmware, my ctrl, capslock, numlock, shift, and alt keys stop working. can anyone help
[05:54] <ricket> Tweaker: System > Preferences > Sound > System Beep tab > uncheck Enable system beep
[05:54] <troxor> mohadib: then reduce the number of workspaces ;)
[05:55] <mohadib> :s
[05:55] <troxor> Tweaker: nope, only event sounds, afaik
[05:55] <Tweaker> ricket: I think that might of worked
[05:55] <Tweaker> ricket: wait Nope
[05:56] <swazo> is there anyway i can drag my iso of ubuntu on to the thumbdrive, and be able to boot tto it to insall it? i dont have a blank cd
[05:56] <troxor> mohadib: I keep the pager in a small top panel, it doesn't take up too much space.
[05:56] <ricket> Tweaker: Can you repeat what and when is beeping? I joined just after you explained
[05:56] <troxor> swazo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[05:56] <swazo> cheers
[05:56] <DIL> iso itself is not bootable
[05:57] <Tweaker> Ricket: It beeps when I unplug it or plug it in, this is a problem because it's a loose cord and I bump it a lot when its in my lap. So when I'm listen to music, its quite irritating
[05:57] <troxor> Tweaker: what kind of beep, coming from the internal speaker (which modprobe -rv pcspkr would dispatch), or generated like a system sound?
[05:58] <Tweaker> troxor: its like just a beep, a speaker beep. Nothing with the system
[05:58] <ricket> Tweaker: and you're sure unchecking the system beep didn't work? it seemed to be the solution for this person with a similar problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=785950
[05:58] <Tweaker> I can screen cap if you like, but it is disabled
[05:59] <troxor> Tweaker: what about all the "System Sounds", changing those no "No sound" ?
[05:59] <ricket> Tweaker: Haha, no, I believe you. It's just odd.
[05:59] <ricket> troxor: I doubt that will solve it
[05:59] <Tweaker> Yes Troxor I have, and alright Ricket, its odd I think...
[05:59] <swedekid> ok I'm trying to set up xp with virtual box and I started it and got this error
[05:59] <swedekid> http://paste.ubuntu.com/15924/
[05:59] <ricket> Tweaker: does this beep happen in other operating systems? could it be a BIOS thing, not an Ubuntu thing?
[06:00] <Tweaker> Ricket: it is ubuntu because it never happened on windows...that I know of
[06:00] <ethan> Hi all! I was wondering if there was someone around who could learn me on a couple different questions about networking and routers etc..?
[06:00] <ricket> Tweaker: what is the model of this laptop?
[06:00] <Tweaker> It is a IBM Thinkpad R52
[06:01] <troxor> swedekid: check if your user is in the vboxusers group. if it isn't, add it, and re-login
[06:01] <swedekid> how do i do that?
[06:01] <troxor> swedekid: System->Administration->Users and Groups
[06:02] <ricket> swedekid: or just run this and reboot: sudo usermod -G vboxusers -a [your username]
[06:02] <swedekid> ok
[06:03] <Jessica_lilly> i need help i installed ubuntu (gutsy) on a old laptop of mine and i let it update and now im getting the error " failed to allocate mem resource #6:10000@f4000000 fir 0000:01:00.0" and " kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)" anyone know how i can fix it
[06:03] <swedekid> can i just log out or do i have to reboot?
[06:03] <ricket> umm... afaik you have to reboot. i'm not sure. is there much of a time difference, does it really hurt to reboot? :)
[06:03] <swedekid> takes forever for this POS computer to reboot but eh got nothing else to do
[06:03] <Tweaker> So troxor or ricket, did you find a solution or a link?
[06:04] <troxor> ricket: iirc, changing groups only needs a relogin
[06:04] <swedekid> yay
[06:04] <Tweaker> I don't mind working, if some one gets the ball rollin
[06:04] <troxor> Tweaker: `modprobe -rv snd_*` ;)
[06:04] <ricket> Tweaker: sorry, no, I'm stumped
[06:04] <Tweaker> So modprobe -rv snd_* with the * as well
[06:04] <troxor> Tweaker: no, just kidding- that would disable sound completely
[06:04] <sco01> There's a known bug preventing me from browsing samba shares on a win network from nautilus in 8.04. Any workarounds?
[06:04] <ricket> troxor: oh ok... i'm pretty new to linux and the tutorial i used (which said that command) just said to reboot :)
[06:04] <Tweaker> lol Ok whew
[06:04] <troxor> Tweaker: although the * probably wouldn't expand out ;)
[06:05] <Tweaker> That's not good troxor
[06:05] <Dr_willis> sco01,  ive found that 'smb4k' lets me browse/mount shares.. but its a kde app.
[06:05] <Jessica_lilly> i need help i installed ubuntu (gutsy) on a old laptop of mine and i let it update and now im getting the error " failed to allocate mem resource #6:10000@f4000000 fir 0000:01:00.0" and " kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)" anyone know how i can fix it
[06:05] <Tweaker> Man I wonder why this damn sound keeps doing that
[06:05] <ricket> Tweaker: haha, crash course in learning not to run arbitrary commands handed to you over IRC
[06:05] <Dr_willis> sco01,  ive even had issues with the smbfuse tool.  :( that samba bug.. is annoying.
[06:05] <Tweaker> lol oh yea ricket I've learned big time
[06:06] <sco01> Dr_willis: thanks. The bug is that it doesn't prompt for username/passwd.
[06:06] <meltingclock> jessica_lilly: try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=27709
[06:06] <Dr_willis> sco01,  heck.  The reason is that nautilus doesn't think it needs to get a uname/pwd from you and then times out
[06:08] <Tweaker> Gonna kill my computer now Troxor? lol
[06:08] <Chubbly> what would the quality of my experience be compared to windows on a celeron M 1.7 Ghz, 256MB machine with 7.10?
[06:08] <troxor> Tweaker: tbh, I don't really know what would generate the sound you're talking about, but if it's a gnome thing, I'd just try killing all processes until it shuts up ;)
[06:08] <Chubbly> it runs like a dog in XP
[06:08] <Dr_willis> sco01,  that dont explain why i am having issues with KDE's file manager, and the smbfuse tools - however.
[06:09] <troxor> Tweaker: not this time :)
[06:09] <kdc1956> some dogs can run
[06:09] <Tweaker> Ok, I guess I can always restart if need be
[06:09] <Jessica_lilly> ok im going to try and fix the problem with the laptop im going to bed its 6:09am and i havnt slept yet
[06:09] <Jessica_lilly> damn english time
[06:09] <sco01> Dr_willis: Found this bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/207072
[06:09] <meltingclock> hope it helps
[06:09] <Jessica_lilly> yer so do i
[06:09] <KsRyno> hello need help with ndiswrapper/broadcom under 8.04
[06:09] <KsRyno> can anybody help?
[06:10] <Jessica_lilly> im sure ill figgure it out
[06:10] <Tweaker> Blah, seriously that didn't help. Stupid IBM
[06:11] <troxor> Tweaker: can you pastebin the output of `sudo lsmod`? maybe there's some module that initializes some ibm-specific sound generating hardware
[06:11] <elninja> For some reason, when I zoom in with compiz, as soon as I move my cursor it moves to the right edge of the screen. and I can't move it off the right border. It just moves back.
[06:11] <co_nyari_co_smu> hallo
[06:11] <Tweaker> troxor: let me try
[06:12] <cwgannon> hello
[06:12] <mai> what irc client is the best?
[06:12] <jussi01> !best | mai
[06:12] <elninja> bizzare... I restarted X, and the problem still occurred... I enabled the "scale cursor" option in the plugin for zooming, and it fixed it. So I disabled it, and I still have no more problems...
[06:12] <Tweaker> troxor: http://pastebin.com/m4d149168
[06:12] <ether_c> I'm trying to set up Ubuntu so that my network looks like this:    INTERNET --> UBUNTU_BOX --> ROUTER --> OTHER_LAN_COMPUTERS ... any ideas on what I will need to install on the Ubuntu box to enable this?
[06:12] <cwgannon> the dev/sda/ or dev/sdb tags are assigned how?  that is, how does each drive get assigned said letter?
[06:13] <ether_c> mai: xchat is easy to use
[06:13] <ether_c> some people like irssi
[06:13] <jussi01> !ics | ether_c
[06:13] <swedekid> so basically after I install xp in virtualbox its exactly the same as xp except i have ubuntu with me too and don't have to reboot?
[06:13] <ether_c> cool, thanks
[06:13] <Dr_willis> ether_c,  what do you plan on gaining by doing it that way?
[06:13] <Dr_willis> !ics | ether_c
[06:13] <ether_c> Dr_willis: actually, I'm just playing around with an old router I found
[06:13] <ether_c> and wondering if I sit in the back room of a class
[06:13] <ether_c> with a router
[06:13] <ether_c> where wireless internet usually reaches
[06:13] <Dr_willis> ether_c,  thers some internet connect shareing under ubuntu howto.  You basicially enable ip-masquerading on the linux box.
[06:13] <ether_c> if I could share that using the router
[06:14] <ether_c> to other people
[06:14] <FloodBot3> ether_c: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:14] <ether_c> jeez, my bad
[06:14] <troxor> Tweaker: perhaps the thinkpad_acpi ?
[06:14] <swedekid> ok i have another question how would I go about removing a xp partiton on a computer im dual booting xp and ubuntu?
[06:14] <troxor> Tweaker: what if you remove that one
[06:14] <Tweaker> troxor: Possibly?
[06:14] <mak2> hey, i seem to be having trouble with a sata drive. i am able to log in maybe 5 percent of time
[06:14] <Tweaker> troxor:  I really have no clue, I have never really got into messing with the insides
[06:15] <elninja> swedekid, any software you run in your virtualized XP setup won't have direct access to the video hardware either. So, you may notget the best performance in graphic intensive games, but other than that, yes.
[06:15] <DIL> cwgannon: sd=scsi disk, a the order of the disks, 1=partitions
[06:15] <meltingclock> swedekid: i would assume you would boot up from the winxp cd , go to install xp which will allow you to format the select xp partition, then you can get out of the boot cd once its finished
[06:16] <Kalamarencu> RoAkSoAx: it worked with the free vncviewer...
[06:16] <Tweaker> troxor: That looks like what I would need to remove, but I also need the function buttons : http://ibm-acpi.sourceforge.net/
[06:16] <swedekid> well thing is i don't have the media center disc just the xp disc which is a different version of xp
[06:16] <troxor> ether_c: I don't know if there's a graphical way to do it, but you'll need  iptables MASQUERADE and something in /proc/sys/net/ip_forward or somesuch
[06:16] <swedekid> could i delete it with gnome partition editor?
[06:16] <meltingclock> swededisk: it should still allow you to partition/format inside of the cd ?
[06:17] <troxor> Tweaker: hm, in that case, yeah- probably not a good idea
[06:17] <ricket> With the Window List, I enabled Window Previews in compiz but the previews collide with the default mouseover thing (alt text?) - how can I disable that text so that only compiz's preview is shown?
[06:17] <DIL> cwgannon: sd=scsi disk hd=ide, a,b,c... the order of the disks, 1,2,3=partitions
[06:17] <ether_c> troxor: if I do that, will it go back to normal after I reboot the box?
[06:17] <elninja> swedekid, to remove an XP partition you just use any software for editing your partition table. gparted, fdisk, etc.
