[19:46] <RioCunliffe> genii: it seems to ignore it
[19:46] <igorgue> vb: attach that image to the folder with the albumname.jpg name like
[19:46] <Andronicus> how do you set pidgin to update automatically with the synaptic package manager?
[19:46] <devdemon> Is there a problem with mysql5 on ubuntu server?
[19:46] <devdemon> it doesn't want to start
[19:47] <genii> RioCunliffe: It will add them to the admin group. You need to execute the command as a user that has sudo or admin rights already however
[19:47] <vb> igorgue: but it is fetching the cover art for older mp3's that I did not update today
[19:47] <ae88925> genii: his "admin" group is empty
[19:47] <RioCunliffe> genii: will it work in recovery?
[19:47] <Slart> Andronicus: I think it does
[19:47] <vb> igorgue: I have all mp3's in one folder, irrespective of the album, so the suggestion would not help in my case
[19:47] <Cyrus25801> how do i download flash videos from a website
[19:47] <Slart> Andronicus: there's no way to set it.. that's what apt-get does
[19:48] <vb> Cyrus25801: www.keepvid.com
[19:48] <tacone> OldSpice: what do you want to do ?
[19:48] <igorgue> vb: it does it automatically
[19:48] <Andronicus> so if I apt-get pidgin it will update?
[19:48] <tacone> format everything ?
[19:48] <Slart> Andronicus: yes
[19:48] <Turgon> Cyrus25801 : If you use Firefox, you could also try the "DownloadHelper" addon
[19:48] <genii> RioCunliffe: Since hd is mounted readonly in recovery, you need to remount it with r/w but yes
[19:48] <Cyrus25801> vb: cool thanx
[19:48] <shadowblade> Can someone help me get my sound working?

[19:48] <Jefo> (ot) anyone here from canada? i would like to know if you would adress someone in HR with their first name if they address you by first name. or is this a boss/(young) intern thing an shouldnt be used?
[19:48] <Slart> Andronicus: update to *the latest version in the repos*.... but the latest version in the repos might not be the latest from the creators
[19:48] <Jefo> same may be in us
[19:48] <RioCunliffe> genii: you need to remount it with r/w... How?
[19:49] <vb> igorgue: so there is no way it will fetch me the embedded cover art?
[19:49] <nnoeonn> Hiya guys ^^
[19:49] <tacone> OldSpice: i am not an expert, anyway. you just need to create another partition for linux and a little one for swap
[19:49] <genii> RioCunliffe: mount -o rw remount /
[19:49] <RioCunliffe> genii: thanks ill tryy it
[19:49] <OldSpice> tacone: do you reccomend how to split my partitions? i have 160gb hd and i have 33gb left.
[19:50] <nnoeonn> MasterShrek, hiya man ^^
[19:50] <Andronicus> mmmm where is the repository?
[19:50] <MasterShrek> hola
[19:50] <genii> RioCunliffe: Then:    usermod -G admin <theirnamehere>
[19:50] <RioCunliffe> okay
[19:50] <tacone> OldSpice: 33 gb 4 ubuntu are enough for quite a lot time
[19:50] <MasterShrek> argh, whats kde's window manager? kwin?
[19:50] <nnoeonn> Thnx for the other day man, really help me out ;)
[19:50] <MasterShrek> yep

[19:51] <steel_lady> hello, please I can not connect wirelessly in ubuntu with the new router. i didn't have any problems with the old router and with the new one I don't have problems in windows either. it has to be settings but I don't understand!
[19:51] <OldSpice> tacone: i want to be able to have windows on 1 partition, all my files (music/videos) on other, and ubuntu on the last. this way i can share files from windows/linux
[19:51] <Slart> Andronicus: the repositories are main site where all the ubuntu packages are kept.. like a big ftp-site
[19:51]  * genii sips a coffee
[19:51] <Chousuke> genii: -G is not really good, since it removes the user from any group not listed
[19:51] <tacone> oldspiece i've done the same thing you want to do
[19:52] <tacone> but i don't think it's that useful
[19:52] <tacone> i'd keep my files on win partition or ubuntu partition
[19:52] <ASTX813> OldSpice Ubuntu can access the windows partition if you just want to leave your music there.  That's how I'm doing it at work, actually
[19:52] <tacone> OldSpice: i agree with ASTX
[19:52] <Chousuke> genii: adduser user group is nicer.
[19:52] <OldSpice> astx813: i heard ubuntu can't write on ntfs files, and only read them. is this true?
[19:53] <tacone> OldSpice: last version writes by default :-)
[19:53] <ae88925> I always keep my files on a separate partition from any OS
[19:53] <Slart> OldSpice: not any more.. with ntfs-3g it's read and write
[19:53] <gucci> hello experts
[19:53] <DrJohnston> Anyone here running TFTP successfully?
[19:53] <genii> Chousuke: Ah, good point
[19:53] <gogzmer> How can I tell what my IP address is from the command line?
[19:53] <ASTX813> gucci Always goo to start with some sucking up ;)
[19:53] <gucci> i needhelp on gconf-editor pls
[19:53] <genii> Chousuke: Thanks for catching that
[19:53] <OldSpice> tacone: slart: oh wow that is cool! so i guess i just have to make 1 partition just for linux. but what is this "swap, home, et3" stuff?
[19:54] <ae88925> gogzmer: ifconfig
[19:54] <Phusion> OldSpice: thats the kind of filesystem
[19:54] <Vad1> How can I tell what's been grinding my harddrive for the last half hour? Its just not stopping.
[19:54] <shadowblade> anyone?
[19:54] <tacone> OldSpice: give the most space you can to / partition, and make a swap of 1gb
[19:54] <Phusion> OldSpice: you need a partition for linux and a partition for linux-swap
[19:54] <tacone> leave other blank
[19:54] <ASTX813> gucci Don't need to ask to ask, just ask you question.
[19:54] <DrJohnston> Can anyone give me any hints how i can troubleshoot TFTP?  I see it's listening  in netstat, but the connection always times out when trying to connect locally or otherwise
[19:54] <DrJohnston> udp        0      0 *:tftp                  *:*
[19:54] <genii> Chousuke: Should have been -a switch not -G for usermod in this case
[19:54] <Slart> OldSpice: hmm.. swap is a partition for swap... home is like documents and settings. (I'm guessing you're a windows guy).. etc is where all the configuration files are kept
[19:54] <Phusion> OldSpice: swap is like Windows's page file, its where your stuff goes when physical RAM is depleted
[19:54] <Chousuke> genii: yeah
[19:54] <tacone> OldSpice: you actual *can* mount /home (and so on) on other partitions, but you don't need to
[19:55] <gucci> gconf doesnt save my settings
[19:55] <tacone> (and as a home user, you normally don't want to)
[19:55] <gogzmer> ae88925: Thank You
[19:55] <DrJohnston> I need a networking or TFTP ninja
[19:55] <vb> igorgue: can you help me create the tree then?
[19:55] <OldSpice> tacone: so i just make two partitions? two separate ones for swap and the new OS?
[19:55] <row_> Anyone know of a skype 64bit deb?
[19:55] <Slart> OldSpice: here's some good documentation on all this, http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Partition/requirements.html
[19:55] <Chousuke> tacone: actually you do. it makes it easier to do a re-install if needed.
[19:55] <gucci> astx
[19:55] <ae88925> DrJohnston: Check your iptables rules
[19:55] <DrJohnston> how do i do that?
[19:56] <tacone> OldSpice: yes.
[19:56] <OldSpice> slart: thanks! i'll be sure to read up on this!
[19:56] <ae88925> this will list the rules: sudo iptables -nvL       but it will not teach you how to read them
[19:56] <gucci> astx18???
[19:56] <Ayabara> when I click a movie file in nautilus, I want the default action to be "open a terminal and run mplayer <filename>". is this possible to do?

[19:57] <Chousuke> hmmh
[19:57] <OldSpice> tacone: okay i think i get what to do now, but just to verify, this is what my partions should look like when i view "my computer"... Windows XP (C:), Ubuntu (D:), Swap (F:)... correct?
[19:57] <ASTX813> harm_ You try doing a disk check?  Sounds like a corrupted file/name
[19:57] <Andronicus> what version of pidgin is current in ubuntu?
[19:57] <Chousuke> OldSpice: you won't see the ubuntu partitions in XP at all

[19:59] <Andronicus> what is the standard keyboard shortcut for opening a terminal?
[19:59] <ASTX813> gucci I don't know, so that's why I haven't answered you.  If someone else does, they might speak up.
[19:59] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: that will do it.. ver 8 or higher if I remember
[19:59] <tacone> OldSpice: you're likely no needing that
[19:59] <gucci> thanks
[19:59] <tacone> ubuntu installation cd would do that.
[19:59] <OldSpice> tacone: i loaded up my live cd and its really difficult to do using manual mode, and there isn't an auto mode
[19:59] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: I prefer the gparted livecd
[19:59] <devdemon> how can i determine which ports are being used?
[19:59] <ASTX813> harm_ if you do a disk check with fsck, that should solve the problem.  It'll probably rename the file or remove it.
[20:00] <gucci> anyone encountered this problem ?gconf-editor not saves

[20:02] <robdig> gucci: then i don't know either...sorry...perhaps someone else does...
[20:02] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: I do like the stand alone gparted...  HAve you defragged your windows install.. twice...
[20:02] <brobostigon> shadowblade: we can all help, but cant do any thing unless we know the details??
[20:02] <OldSpice> tacone: ubotu: is gparted in the live cd from the .iso i created when i dled ubuntu?
[20:03] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: i defragged once.
[20:03] <jon_> Is there anyway to remove the link to my hard drive that is on my desktop without unmounting the drive?
[20:03] <shadowblade> brobostigon: it just doesn't work at all, the system beep works, thats it
[20:03] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: gparted is on the livecd... but I prefer the stand alone version from the earlier link
[20:03] <Andronicus> what irc client do you people use? xchat? pidgin?
[20:03] <Phusion> xchat
[20:03] <erUSUL> Andronicus: irssi
[20:03] <robdig> xchat
[20:03] <Phusion> BitchX
[20:03] <Slart> jon_: it's either all hard drives.. or no hard drives, I think
[20:03] <Phusion> irssi if yer l33t ;)
[20:03]  * Slart uses xchat-gnome
[20:04] <jon_> irssi most of the time but xchat right now
[20:04] <Phusion> I irc w/ my mind

[20:04] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: do i run the standalone gparted in windows or after i boot the live cd?
[20:04] <jon_> Slart; none would be fine
[20:04] <shaft350x> Hello
[20:04] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: It boots like the ubuntu livecd... all on its own
[20:04] <Slart> jon_: ok, start gconfeditor in a terminal
[20:04] <tacone> OldSpice: the installation gparted was fine enough for me.
[20:05] <Slart> jon_: sorry.. gconf-editor
[20:05] <DrJohnston> How can i figure out why TFTP connections are working if the service is running, there are no iptables rules?
[20:05] <DrJohnston> This is driving me nuts.....
[20:05] <ASTX813> Is there a command for dd that will give me some feedback so I can see how progress is going?  Other than occasionally sending a kill -USR1?
[20:05] <DrJohnston> The connection just times out
[20:05] <jon_> Slart: K
[20:06] <DrJohnston> My hosts.allow / hosts.deny are setup to allow all
[20:06] <vegananarchist> i Screwed something up and now none of my applications show in the notification area
[20:06] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: I would also suggest you add at least one extra ext3 partition ... one for root   /    one for /home  plus the swap
[20:06] <Slart> jon_:  go to applications, nautilus, desktop
[20:06] <DrJohnston> So i'm not sure why it's being blocked if the service is running and showing in netstat as well
[20:06] <vegananarchist> can someone help me fix it?
[20:06] <Slart> jon_: sorry.. apps, nautilus, desktop
[20:06] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: that's what im stuck on, i get almost everything else
[20:06] <tacone> Jack_Sparrow: I guess he doesn't need that to start
[20:06] <jon_> Slart: K
[20:06] <jon_> Slart: got it
[20:06] <vegananarchist> i Screwed something up and now none of my applications show in the notification area
[20:07] <ae88925> DrJohnston: it might be helpful to read the manpage for tftpd.  Some daemons have an option to run in foreground with debug messages.
[20:07] <Jack_Sparrow> tacone: He can do it with one ext3 plus the swap.. but better to have an extra made now....
[20:07] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: Do I just right click on the c drive and make 1 partition for the ubuntu os, 1 for root, and the swap and home are in the same partition?
[20:07] <DrJohnston> Ah
[20:07] <Slart> jon_: there might be some other way of changing that.. but this is the one I know
[20:07] <ader10> How do I change the "menu bar"?
[20:07] <jon_> Slart: now I have to restart nautilus before it takes effect right
[20:07] <ae88925> DrJohnston: In the past (years ago) I've seen tftpd problems with directory permissions
[20:07] <Slart> jon_: you shouldn't have to
[20:07] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: nope.. one for root      one for /home   and 2 gig or so for swap
[20:07] <ader10> I'd like to move the System menu into the Applications menu
[20:07] <Slart> jon_: at least mine reacts immediately
[20:07] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: three partitions
[20:07] <vegananarchist> can someone help me?
[20:08] <tacone> Jack_Sparrow: he doesn't need 2gb swap
[20:08] <jon_> Slart: let me try again
[20:08] <Slart> ader10: isn't there a menu editor in one if the menus
[20:08] <tacone> he has 512mb of ram.
[20:08] <DrJohnston> ae88925 - The directory setup is 777
[20:08] <tacone> more than twice is not useful, is it ?
[20:08] <DrJohnston> so anyone should be able to access it
[20:08] <jon_> Slart: ah I was root in the terminal that would do it
[20:08] <ader10> Slart: Yes, but that doesn't edit the menu bar. that only edits the menus inside
[20:09] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: sorry for flooding you with questions, but is root where ubuntu is being installed? and what exactly is /home? where i store documents?
[20:09] <harm_> How do i make it deleteable? rm: cannot remove `VA - 538 Dance Smash Hits 2005 Vol 2': Read-only file system
[20:09] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: 2 gig or so is based on your ram... 512 would normally be 1 gig swap.. but as you may in the future add some ram... if you can afford to lose 1 gig I would suggest 2 gig swap..
[20:09] <jon_> Slart: ok it worked thanks
[20:09] <Andronicus> does sudo make it an admin command or something?
[20:09] <tacone> !home
[20:09] <ubotu> Your home folder is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For mounting your home folder on a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome
[20:09] <vegananarchist> i Screwed something up and now none of my applications show in the notification area
[20:09] <Chousuke> DrJohnston: some apps refuse to access directories that have too lax permissions
[20:09] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: Home is where you will keep your programs and all your stuff.. making a reinstall much easier...
[20:09] <vegananarchist> can someone help
[20:09] <Slart> ader10: hmm.. you're right.. then I don't know how, sorry
[20:09] <Chousuke> DrJohnston: 777 is never really a good choice.
[20:10] <Slart> jon_: you're welcome
[20:10] <ASTX813> OldSpice /home is kinda like c:\documents and settings.  You'll have a folder in there for your account
[20:10] <hotmonkeyluv> what's the cli command to rename something?
[20:10] <DrJohnston> yea just for testing...
[20:10] <Chousuke> hotmonkeyluv: most people just use mv
[20:10] <DrJohnston> If i feel lucky i choose 777
[20:10] <ader10> Slart: Thanks for at least letting me know that I'm not ignored here :)
[20:10] <ader10> Anybody else have an idea on how to customize the "menu bar"?
[20:10] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: so if i make a partition called /root, ubuntu will automatically install on that partition correct?
[20:10] <Slart> ader10: people are rarely ignored here.. sometimes people just don't know the answer, that's all
[20:11] <brobostigon> no, /root is roots account folder
[20:11] <vegananarchist> I guess that's my case
[20:11] <hotmonkeyluv> chousuke: how so? like: sudo mv /folder/file1 /folder/file2
[20:11] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: you dont make it root.. during the install it is designated with simply  /
[20:11] <vegananarchist> Because no one is getting to me and my question
[20:11] <Chousuke> hotmonkeyluv: yes. except that you only need sudo if you don't own the file.
[20:11] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: likewise during the install you make the other /home
[20:11] <vegananarchist> I'll be back i'm going to try a restart
[20:11] <Chousuke> hotmonkeyluv: always try without sudo first.
[20:11] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: the installer will have you format both of those ... again..
[20:11] <Slart> vegananarchist: yes.. sounds like it.. someone will come along that knows the answer
[20:12] <hotmonkeyluv> chousuke: yeah, i kinda messed up my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file on a different partition....
[20:12] <jon_> OldSpice: its my understanding that you need a / partition to install ubuntu on but you may make different partitions for /root or /home
[20:12] <Chousuke> hotmonkeyluv: I see.
[20:12] <hotmonkeyluv> but I made a backup!
[20:12] <hotmonkeyluv> thank god
[20:12] <Chousuke> heh
[20:12] <Chousuke> backups are good for you
[20:12] <hotmonkeyluv> amen
[20:12] <Phusion> like vitamin c
[20:12] <Jack_Sparrow> jon_: correct...   I also have one for /var  which holds all of my upgrades and downloads
[20:13] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: so the partition i would just name the /root, "/" and inside the root do i make another partition? or would i just make another partition off my C:?
[20:13] <Raff7> hai
[20:13] <Jack_Sparrow> jon_: But I have room to burn on this drive
[20:13] <Raff7> hi*
[20:13] <Raff7> someone had problem while the last kernel upgrade?
[20:13] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: nope
[20:13] <Phusion> OldSpice: C: is a designation of a partition by Windows
[20:13] <Raff7> cos i had some issues with depmod
[20:13] <tacone> OldSpice: you'd better partition from the life cd, not from windows
[20:13] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: Are you in windows now.. partition magic?
[20:14] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: yes im in windows, partition magic
[20:14] <Jack_Sparrow> have you already shrunk your ntfs or fat32?
[20:14] <jon_> Jack_Sparrow: on my BSD box I have a separate /tmp partition so I am guessing you could do that in Ubuntu as well
[20:14] <Raff7> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48907/ this is the log (maybe the problem is about the ati drivers)
[20:14] <Jack_Sparrow> jon_: correct...
[20:14] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: there is an option in partition magic to "install another os"
[20:15] <slugone> afternoon all
[20:15] <amitprakash> anyone knows how to get a dell inspiron in built mic to work in ubuntu
[20:15] <Jack_Sparrow> No, but it will allow you to create ext3 's and linux swap partitions
[20:15] <banzai> hi, i'm trying to add a program to ubuntu's program menu and i keep getting errors. i can run the program fine through terminal when i type in the name 'xmaple' (an alias i created). thanks
[20:15] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: yes...  that is the new version then..
[20:15] <hotmonkeyluv> chousuke: thanks for the help. Is there a rename command, or is mv easier/faster/safer?
[20:16] <Chousuke> hotmonkeyluv: mv is just a "move" command
[20:16] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: so i will be able to install ubuntu using partiton magic correct? the gui seems way easier than the live cd
[20:16] <hotmonkeyluv> i know
[20:16] <Chousuke> hotmonkeyluv: there are more advanced rename commands available though.
[20:16] <hotmonkeyluv> such as?
[20:16] <Chousuke> such as the "rename" perl script
[20:16] <hotmonkeyluv> oh...
[20:16] <Chousuke> should be installable from APT
[20:16] <Chousuke> !info rename
[20:16] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: You want to create two ext3's  and a swap...   note you have a limit of 4 primary partitons and if you have other partitons you may need to create an extended partition and put logicals in there
[20:16] <ubotu> Package rename does not exist in gutsy
[20:16] <SpookyET> What's the difference between a GTK engine and a GTK theme?
[20:17] <Chousuke> hmm :/
[20:17] <jon_> OldSpice: Partition Magic works to create different partitions under windows but I would not recommend it for most users I think its scary. If you can try to use Gparted. It can all of the things you will need to get up and running
[20:17] <Chousuke> well I'm sure you'll find it somewhere :)
[20:17] <EtteSB> im doing ./configure for making a file (there isn't a .deb for it) and i get "configure: error: **** SDL version  not found !" anyone know whats wrong?
[20:17] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: No, you will not be using windows to install ubuntu.. only use it for creating the partitions...
[20:17] <shadowblade> brobostigon: i can't seem to get it working using that
[20:17] <amitprakash> anyone knows how to get a dell inspiron in built mic to work in ubuntu
[20:17] <user1> was the realtek high def sound issue fixed on the latest kernel update?
[20:18] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: or use the gparted livecd  50 meg download or something like that
[20:18] <Phusion> !sound > amitprakash
[20:18] <RioCunliffe> genii: the command 'mount -o rw remount /' (and variations) didnt work
[20:18] <Phusion> bah
[20:18] <tacone> OldSpice: ubuntu installer is not that difficult, come on.
[20:18] <Raff7> !sound | amitprakash
[20:18] <ubotu> amitprakash: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[20:18] <erUSUL> SpookyET: in a gtk engine there is some programming involved and changes are deeper on a theme you only change colors some shapes etc
[20:18] <brobostigon> i dont know then shadowblade, sorry
[20:18] <Raff7> Phusion: ^^
[20:18] <Phusion> tanx Raff7
[20:18] <robdig> banzai: think you need to use the actual path not an alias
[20:19] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: tacone: okay i'll defrag one more time and i'll try running the live cd again. this is about my 5th time so i want to do this right. i make three partitions. one for root, and two more for swap and home.
[20:19] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: when you run live and get to step 4 you will go into manual partitioning and setup the partitions there
[20:19] <banzai> robdig: but maple has an issue (displays blank screen)
[20:19] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: yes.. using whatever tools work for you
[20:19] <banzai> robdig: so i created an alias xmaple that does 'export AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit && /.../xmaple'
[20:19] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: and just another quickie, what is et3? et2?
[20:20] <mistermocha> hay y'all
[20:20] <tacone> !ext3
[20:20] <ubotu> ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[20:20] <xShadowCallx> hey, my friend installed gentoo (Dualbooted with vista) on my laptop. I feel completely lost as it is my first time using linux. I think Ubuntu would suite me better but i dont know how to install with dualboot so i keep vista
[20:20] <xShadowCallx> i have a LiveCD
[20:20] <tacone> !ext2
[20:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ext2 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:20] <erUSUL> OldSpice: is the name of the filesystem used in ubuntu ext2 is the old one without journaling
[20:20] <Raff7> nobody had the same problem with E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[20:20] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: partition formats.. like ntfs or fat32   ext3 has journeling as the main difference...  (something like that)
[20:20] <tacone> OldSpice: use ext3
[20:20] <mistermocha> !dual boot
[20:20] <ubotu> Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo - MACs: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookPro https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot
[20:20] <Raff7> while installing the last kernel ?
[20:20] <OldSpice> tacone: for all 3 partitions?
[20:21] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: nope for root and home   swap is just swap
[20:21] <tacone> OldSpice: no, swap is just swap
[20:21] <erUSUL> OldSpice: swap does not have a filesystem
[20:21] <robdig> banzai: but i don't think that aliases get set up for X...been a while but think .bashrc, .profile and friends only get executed by the shell...
[20:21] <Jack_Sparrow> erUSUL: Keep an eye on him... brb
[20:21] <mistermocha> does anyone know how to remap the scrollbar on a touchpad?
[20:22] <erUSUL> Jack_Sparrow: i will ;)
[20:22] <OldSpice> Okay thanks everyone! I hope this works!
[20:22] <banzai> robdig: ok, i tried adding that entire command entirely to the menu and it gives error saying can't find command export ...
[20:22] <Barracuda> hh
[20:22] <Barracuda> h
[20:22] <ASTX813> erUSUL how come he isn't just letting it do guided partitioning?
[20:22] <Desolator> bazhang?
[20:22] <EtteSB> im doing ./configure for making a file (there isn't a .deb for it) and i get "configure: error: **** SDL version  not found !" anyone know whats wrong?
[20:23] <robdig> banzai: export is a shell command...try writing a shell script to do this for you and it should work
[20:23] <Slart> EtteSB: you might have to install SDL
[20:23] <erUSUL> ASTX813: dunno; i jumped in late in the game. Maybe he just want to know what is exactly going on
[20:23] <Desolator> SDL, the -dev package, forgot how it was exactly called, just search for libsdl in synaptic
[20:24] <banzai> robdig, ok, i'll give it a try
[20:24] <EtteSB> thanks
[20:24] <robdig> banzai: don't forget to chmod +x yourscript       otherwise it won't execute...
[20:25] <Desolator> actually chmod u+x
[20:25] <kingace> hi all
[20:25] <EtteSB> Desolator: so i take the libsdl1.2-dev if im taking the dev one?
[20:25] <Desolator> EtteSB: yes, that one
[20:25] <banzai> robdig: haha, ok2. when you mention shell script, that's a good keyword for me to start researching. thanks much. :)
[20:25] <robdig> Desolator: thanks
[20:25] <EtteSB> desolator: thanks
[20:25] <RioCunliffe> How can i make  an account admin in recovery mode?
[20:25] <kingace> i just installed gusty x86 on my comp, it worked fine but when i start up it says "Starting up..." and then the splash screen never comes up and theres a blank screen
[20:25] <Desolator> rodbig, EtteSB: no problem
[20:26] <generic> !pastebin
[20:26] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[20:26] <kingace> i tried booting into recovery mode, which worked, and i changed my video driver around but radeon\ati\vesa all had the same affect
[20:26] <Lattyware> Hey all, is there a problem with a samba dependency at the moment?
[20:26] <kingace> and by same affect i mean, no change
[20:26] <Flare183> Is there an application for kde that like firefox that accepts the addons but still is a kde application
[20:26] <Desolator> OK, I was to lunch, well I've had the problem that networkmanager couldn't connect when booting, so I popped out the enthernet cable, but now it says it has found a new usb device (actually it's my printer), and then ubuntu hangs, without displaying the log-in screen
[20:26] <Desolator> any iseas why?
[20:26] <Desolator> *ideas
[20:27] <erUSUL> RioCunliffe: adduser existting_user admin
[20:27] <notv> can i get some help installing flash? im using gutsy. the terminal is telling me my x86_64 is not supported by the installer
[20:27] <kbrosnan> Flare183: if you mean by accept addons, you mean firefox addons. then the answer is no
[20:27] <Slart> notv: look at topic
[20:27] <RioCunliffe> erUSUL dont i have to specify a name?
[20:28] <Desolator> currently I can only boot in the recovery console because of that, I thought ubuntu doesn't need an internet connection to boot...I'm running gutsy (7.10) btw
[20:28] <erUSUL> notv: see the topic
[20:28] <erUSUL> RioCunliffe: existting_user has to be an existing username
[20:28] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: i think i got a problem, where should i place my swap?
[20:28] <RioCunliffe> erusul: cheers
[20:28] <docgnome> is anyone else having sound problems with Mozilla Thunderbird?
[20:28] <piv> hello everyone !
[20:28] <Karti> Hi all, could someone recommend a linux tool that would work along the lines of Magic Iso, and allow the creation of iso's and the addition of files to already created iso files. Many thanks
[20:29] <Desolator> OldSpice: anywhere, I personally make it a logical partition
[20:29] <erUSUL> notv: currently flash installation is no working you will have to wait for a fixed package
[20:29] <ae88925> notv: look into ns plugin wrapper, there's no x86_64 version of Adobe Flash
[20:29] <notv> slart: what topic?
[20:29] <maxo> hi
[20:29] <OldSpice> desolator: logical partition? is that another type of drive format?
[20:29] <notv> ah
[20:29] <maxo> Is anyone able to get full-screen mode with the flash plugin on ubuntu?
[20:29] <ASTX813> Is the phpinfo() function for some reason disabled in the php.ini-recommended?  I just made that one my php.ini and now I can't load up the phpinfo.php page
[20:29] <devdemon> does anyone use mysql on the ubuntu server?
[20:29] <piv> notv: sorry just popped in, flash is hosed right? the flashplugin-nonfree?
[20:29] <erUSUL> notv: once a fixed package is out you willl only have to go to youtube and accept the flash activation wizard

[20:29] <notv> ae88925 would i have been better off installing the 32 bit kernel?
[20:30] <devdemon> it's failing on me, and I can't figure out why (when trying to start mysql)
[20:30] <Desolator> OldSpice: sort of. there are primary partitions from which you can boot (there's a workaround, but I won't go into details) and logical ones, which are stored in an EXTENDED partition (that takes a primary slot)
[20:30] <ASTX813> devdemon Yes, but I'm not really great with it yet.  What'ss up?
[20:30] <piv> devdemon, i use mysql
[20:30] <hat0> hi everybody.  i'm having a problem with the video player (xubuntu, intel video drivers on xorg) - it crashes with an "X Window System error," BadAlloc
[20:30] <piv> whats wrong
[20:30] <devdemon> Cool, I give it the command /etc/init.d/mysql start
[20:30] <maxo> I can't get full-screen mode with flash on linux. Any ideas why?
[20:30] <devdemon> it gives me Starting mysql blah blah ...fail!
[20:30] <erUSUL> OldSpice: yes; a hd can only have 4 primary partitions so as work around you create one extended partition that can contain many logical partitions inside
[20:31] <devdemon> like fail needs the explanation point
[20:31] <Desolator> OldSpice: so as swap isn't used for installnig an OS on it, you should make it extended, it'll be at the end of the hard-disk, leaving room to resize partitions
[20:31] <ASTX813> devdemon that blah blah probably includes an error that might help you out.
[20:31] <banzai> robdig, sweet! it works. i love you man. :) thanks a lot
[20:31] <ae88925> notv: I run the 32 bit on x86_64 hardware because it's easier and I don't notice a performance difference with casual use
[20:31] <piv> devdemon, you have to start the daemon as root ,  use sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
[20:31] <SpamInaCan> how do i access the cups web interface on my server?, do i need to install cups first or does it come standard with ubuntu desktop install?
[20:31] <robdig> banzai: np

[20:31] <devdemon> that's the full message
[20:31] <devdemon> piv: I'm doing that
 OK, I was to lunch, well I've had the problem that networkmanager couldn't connect when booting, so I popped out the enthernet cable, but now it says it has found a new usb device (actually it's my printer), and then ubuntu hangs, without displaying the log-in screen

[20:31] <piv> sorry
[20:31] <devdemon> Just opened the syslog
[20:32] <OldSpice> desolator: erusul: okay thanks! so i can just make a logical partition off, lets say the "root" and place the swap there as well?
[20:32] <devdemon> got a bunch of stuff
[20:32] <piv> devdemon: sorry
[20:32] <erUSUL> SpamInaCan: point a webbrowser to server_ip:631

[20:32] <Raff7> cannot update the kernel cos of an error
[20:32] <Desolator> OLdSpice: well once you select the FS of the partition to swap, you won't be able to specify a mount point, since...it's used to simulate RAM, you can't put files in it
[20:33] <devdemon> http://pastebin.com/d3dac1144
[20:33] <ASTX813> devdemon check /var/log/messages and /var/log/mysql.err
[20:33] <piv> devdemon: can you log in? i mean is the daemon already running? /etc/init.d/mysql restart
[20:33] <devdemon> that's my errors
[20:33] <RioCunliffe> when i click on volume control i get the error: No volume control Gstreamer plugins and/or devices found.
[20:33] <banzai> what's is "export AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit" and what is it doing?
[20:33] <RioCunliffe> what do i do?
[20:33] <notv> ae88925: do you think running 32 bit on x86_64 hardware would have any affect on digital recording using ardour and a firewire device?
[20:33] <erUSUL> SpamInaCan: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PrintingCupsWebInterface
[20:33] <small_stripes> does ubuntu take up more resources if im running it thru wubi?
[20:33] <devdemon> it always tells me that it stops
[20:33] <EtteSB> what do you do after ./configure again? (im new to compiling myself)
[20:33] <devdemon> but can't start
[20:33] <small_stripes> the live cd seem more stable
[20:33] <EtteSB> i have a makefile
[20:33] <rash> ett: make
[20:33] <ae88925> notv: I have no idea
[20:33] <erUSUL> SpamInaCan: also you may need to enable other host to access cups interface
[20:33] <shadowblade> !sound
[20:33] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[20:33] <EtteSB> rash: thanks
[20:34] <ae88925> notv: my guess is 'yes'
[20:34] <OldSpice> desolator: I see! Thank you very much for your help. I guess the default partitioner no the live cd does this automatically correct? Not giving the option where to place the swap?
[20:34] <ASTX813> devdemon Yeah, it looks like you already have a running instance.  Or something else is already listening on :3306
[20:34] <RioCunliffe> when i click on volume control i get the error: No volume control Gstreamer plugins and/or devices found.
[20:34] <devdemon> how can I check what's listening on that port?
[20:34] <robdig> banzai: it is setting up an environment variable, that the program references for some purpose of its own
[20:34] <satan_> hey guys
[20:34] <RioCunliffe> help plz
[20:34] <EtteSB> !hi
[20:34] <ubotu> Hi!  I decided to boot into my Windows partition and just grap some images I had and put them in my USB Stick. So then I rebooted again but into ubuntu gusty. Then went back onto Counter Strike and now the ran runs slow
[20:34] <RioCunliffe> ubotu is gay :P
[20:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about is gay :p - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[20:35] <banzai> robdig: ah ok
[20:35] <ricanelite757> Before it was running perfect no issues at all
[20:35] <banzai> robdig: thx
[20:35] <ASTX813> does anything show up?
[20:35] <EtteSB> !foo
[20:35] <ubotu> bar
[20:35] <erUSUL> SpamInaCan: by default you can only access the interface from localhost
[20:35] <EtteSB> !foo is bar
[20:35] <ricanelite757> What can be the problem? all the settings are fine and the same as I left it
[20:35] <Desolator> I've had a problem with networkmanager, it couldn't connect when booting, so I popped out the enthernet cable, but now it says it has found a new usb device (actually it's my printer), and then ubuntu hangs, without displaying the log-in screen. I'm running gutsy, and I'm in Windows right now (since it's the only other OS I have installed).
[20:35] <RioCunliffe> when i click on volume control i get the error: No volume control Gstreamer plugins and/or devices found.
[20:35] <devdemon> yeah 2 things,
[20:35] <devdemon> one is my tail of the mysql.err
[20:35] <devdemon> second is sql
[20:36] <Fracture> Hey, im trying to dualboot Ubuntu with vista but when i click next after sorting my partitions it doesnt see Vista
[20:36] <Fracture> this is in the Ubuntu install
[20:36] <ASTX813> might you have a different sql server installed?  try killing that process.
[20:36] <bulmer> Desolator-> thats common when you get an i/o hang, as in either serial port, ethernet port, wifi or even hd i/o
[20:36] <erUSUL> Desolator: does ubuntu boot if you unplug you printer?
[20:36] <Desolator> I'll try
[20:36] <satan_> can somone tell me how to change thems in ubuntu
[20:37] <erUSUL> satan_: system>preferences>appearance
[20:37] <RioCunliffe> Fracture: i suggest getting rid of vista, it sucks :P
[20:37] <satan_> ok
[20:37] <Fracture> lol i know
[20:37] <RioCunliffe> when i click on volume control i get the error: No volume control Gstreamer plugins and/or devices found.
[20:37] <the_greeter> Fracture: no problem, its not hard to configure grub to boot vista manually.
[20:37] <Fracture> thats why im isntalling Ubuntu
[20:37] <Fracture> but ive got some stuff i NEED
[20:37] <RioCunliffe> fair
[20:37] <Fracture> o yes
[20:37] <RioCunliffe> when i click on volume control i get the error: No volume control Gstreamer plugins and/or devices found.
[20:37] <SpamInaCan> i restarted cups...., still cant connect.......
[20:38] <Fracture> the boot drive is the drive that the operating system will get installed onto yes?
[20:38] <Slart> Fracture: not necessarily
[20:38] <satan_> where can i download new better looking thems
[20:38] <Fracture> So if Sda1 and 2 are ntfs (vista) then my sda6 and sda7 can be my swap and boot drive ?
[20:38] <bulmer> SpamInaCan-> does your pc have an ip address? verify via ifconfig or ip a and also does it have a route table?
[20:38] <Slart> Fracture: but usually

[20:39] <small_stripes> does ubuntu take up more resources if im running it thru wubi?
[20:39] <devdemon> no other mysql running
[20:39] <Raff7> while upgrading the kernel i get a bus error, core dumped from depmod, how may i fix?
[20:39] <ASTX813> jp30 you create it yourself, usually in /etc/apache2
[20:39] <Lattyware> jp30: .htaccess files can be put anywhere that apache can read them.

[20:40] <devdemon> yeah
[20:40] <tacone> ciao Francesco.

[20:40] <devdemon> ASTX813:  That's the only thing it give me after the ps waux | grep sql
[20:41] <ASTX813> Hmm.  I dunno.  It's gotta be something blocking that port or something, I'd think.
[20:41] <OldSpice> tacone: well im defragging it on windows right now. if this instalation goes smoothly on my laptop, i'll also be doing th is on my PC as well.
[20:41] <tacone> poeloq: ?
[20:41] <jp30> Does anyone know how to create custom error messages in apache2?
[20:41] <slugone> is there an easy way to change the font color of my menu's without changing the font color of my desktop icon names ? ? ? ? ?
[20:41] <tacone> OldSpice: ok, nice.
[20:41] <bulmer> jp30 there is a #apache channel for specific assistance
[20:41] <ASTX813> jp30 .htpaswd has encrypted data in it, so you don't want to make any changes in vi.
[20:42] <jp30> thanks,
[20:42] <poeloq> tacone: Stay on topic - i.e request or give help. No personal chat. :)
[20:42] <OldSpice> tacone: just a quick question, this is where i got stuck before. how would i make partitions using this screenshot as a guide? (not mine) http://i.cmpnet.com/infoweek/galleries/automated/24/ubuntu_install_full.jpg

[20:52] <henrique_> Does ubuntu have socket connection limit?
[20:52] <Slart> Jezz: huh? you usually install stuff using a network connection.. but if you're not online.. you can bring a dvd to install packages from
[20:52] <BHP> tthe_greeer: yes. it seems that we tried that already but it didn't work. We are going to try once more before saying that it doesn't work, Just one minute
[20:52] <Slart> henrique_: don't think so
[20:52] <Jezz> ok then i just install the live cd
[20:53] <Slart> Jezz: do that.. that's what most people do
[20:53] <BloodyScum> henrique_ i have never came accrost one
[20:53] <Jezz> ok
[20:53] <Jezz> whats the latest stable version?
[20:53] <ActySofts> alright, I'm in ubuntu now, thanks
[20:53] <slugone> okay about that thread....my desktop theme doesnt allow me to change colors do i got any options from the cli???
[20:53] <henrique_> Slart, when i open about 100 sockets, i can't open anymore, it drops the connection automatically
[20:53] <ActySofts> now, ALSA seems to have gone wacky overnight and I can't change anything regarding volume, and PCM is muted
[20:53] <ActySofts> any ideas?
[20:54] <poeloq_> re
[20:54] <henrique_> And it's not my connection.
[20:54] <blizzkid> I know it's not a Ubuntu question, but I didn't know a better starting point. I'm trying to establish an ssh tunnel from work to home. At work, only outgoing traffic on port 443 is allowed. At home, the ISP blocks traffic at ports below 1024, so I'll have to set up a portfowrward on my router from eg 8443 to 22 internal. But I need a step somewhere between that, to route traffic from port 443 to 8443. Does such a service exist?
[20:54] <slugone> wow support like this would cost atleast 199$ a month from ms...LOL
[20:54]  * TiredGuy is away: killing my neighbor's hamster !!
[20:54] <BloodyScum> henrique_ your ISP is most likely doing that
[20:54] <Slart> henrique_: hmm.. sounds weird..  your own software does the opening?
[20:54] <BloodyScum> henrique_ comcast used to do that to me, but i found a way arround

[20:55] <k3ks> Hi, i've got problems with my bluetooth adapter in my notebook
[20:55] <luciash> anyone using kdenlive 0.5 in ubuntu/kubuntu ?
[20:55] <k3ks> it doesn't find any device
[20:56]  * TiredGuy is back (gone 00:01:37)
[20:56] <henrique_> BloodyScum, I'm sure isn't the isp, because i'm on lan and don't have this problems on the other pcs
[20:56] <MasterShrek> TiredGuy: please turn that away message off
[20:56] <shawn34> I have a second hd mounted at boot. when I delete something from it it tells me its "unable to move file to trash, do you want to delete permanently?" why?
[20:56] <Phusion> shawn34: is the second drive ntfs?
[20:56] <luciash> i have trouble to get nice result while exporting (rendering) the timeline - it is always "choppy" video while there are some horizontally moving shots
[20:56] <k3ks> i tried to find my mobile with a bluetooth dongle and it worked, but with the buld in adapter it doesn't
[20:56] <TiredGuy> why is that MasterShrek ?
[20:56] <shawn34> Phusion, no
[20:57] <BloodyScum> henrique_ I dont know then, i can go well above 100 without any problem.
[20:57] <bulmer> henrique_-> am sure a system has limits including the number of sockets allowed, remember sockets are like file descriptors, so fd table has to be modified to allow more?
[20:57] <shawn34> Phusion, i don't think so at least, let me check
[20:57] <Joshooa> Hey I'm running Ubuntu with Gnome and I want to try KDE again, is there a way to install KDE WITHOUT having it install all it's crap into my Gnome menus?

[20:57] <slugone> im converting my friend to ubuntu.....when i boot live it doesnt recognize the internet as being plugged in.....if i install  ubuntu could the internet possibly work then ? ...or if live doesnt detect it am i "hooped"
[20:57] <ubotu> TiredGuy: You should avoid changing your nick in a busy channel like #ubuntu - it causes unrequired scrolling which is unfair on new users. The same goes for using noisy away messages : use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently - See also !Guidelines
[20:57] <Jezz> um what is gnome, and what is kde?
[20:57] <Slart> henrique_: here's someone else with the same problem.. http://osdir.com/ml/network.poptop/2005-11/msg00037.html

[20:58] <henrique_> Hmm...
[20:58] <Jezz> gonna install it when it finished, is it not too hard?
[20:58] <Jezz> oh ok
[20:58] <Phusion> shawn34: well, if its a windows drive, or you formatted it w/ windows, its gunna be fat32 or ntfs
[20:58] <Joshooa> slugone: There's a good chance you can get it working after the install, depends what drivers and stuff you can get.
[20:58] <TiredGuy> ahhh .. point taken MasterShrek :)

[21:03] <seanpr> @kitsuneofdoom: passive usually means you are behind a firewall or don't have correct ports opened in a router

[21:06] <bthornton> All I can find are the files "Packages.bz2", "Packages.gz", and "Release" in every mirror I check.
[21:06] <kitsuneofdoom> seanpr: It's a private connection, however, the hub is on the network. I'm pretty sure it's either a problem with my network settings on the machine, or LinuxDC++
[21:06] <Jack_Sparrow> piedownjoe: Try asking in #Ubuntustudio  that variant is not supported here

[21:08] <kitsuneofdoom> seanpr: I know which port it is.

[21:08] <Jack_Sparrow> piedownjoe:  All the more reason to go with a version that is supported
[21:08] <boris> i got a friend that keeps bothering me about buying something, how do i do something bad to his comp, like make and send a script to him that rotates the screen ? (hes got windoze)

[21:09] <tacone> OldSpice: how much space free you have ?
[21:09] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: I covered that earlier.. remember extended partitions.. limit of 4 primary etc

[21:09] <kitsuneofdoom> seanpr: Oh. As I said, I'm almost positive the problem lies in the OS/app level, I could reboot to windows and try from there. Pretty sure it'd work, though.
[21:09] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: It should let you create an extended partition
[21:09] <boris> Lunar_Lamp: im really really angry at him !
[21:09] <tacone> OldSpice: then probably jack is right. doesn't it lets you to create an exended ?

[21:10] <boris> ill stop
[21:11] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: It should let you create an extended partition
[21:11] <boris> verb3k: just for note : he doesnt speak english
[21:11] <Myrtti> thanks
[21:11] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: tacone: i dont see any option to create an extended partition from any of the three.
[21:11] <jUSTm> trying to install intel-isubh101008-10.1.008 and the ./iccvars.sh won't execute
[21:11] <verb3k> boris, should that be a puzzle or something?
[21:11] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: not from any of those three...
[21:11] <boris> verb3k: no
[21:11] <dkulchenko> Jack_Sparrow: it's not there. i think it's becauseyou also need to edit the applications.menu file
[21:11] <nickweb> okies - my wlan0 interface isnt appearing.. I've just tried following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/mrv8k and it all looks installed ok - i cant scan tho (at the end of the documtn) - but under manage connections, wlan0 isnt listed.. any ideas?
[21:11] <MasterShrek> jUSTm: tried using sudo?
[21:12] <jUSTm> i did
[21:12] <jon_> justm: check the permissions
[21:12] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: however i do see the option for "new partition table" which clears my windows xp OS
[21:12] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: Do you have unallocated space available?
[21:12] <mgim> any xorg gurus? having problem with a card that seems to be in 8 bit mode
[21:12] <jUSTm> i tried sudo ./iccvars.sh
[21:12] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: unallocated? meaning free space on my hard drive?
[21:12] <jon_> justm: a "chmod +x" may do the trick
[21:13] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: yes.. space not allocated to a partition
[21:13] <jUSTm> i did that too
[21:13] <jUSTm> not found
[21:13] <marko-_-> ok so here's a problem... what would you do if you had windows and suddenly someting is fucked up ( you don't know if the disk is dead ) my friends want's to access the partition on the disk with kubuntu but he doesn't know how... any ideas ?
[21:13] <dissect> Hi, I installed Cedega but when I try to play a game, the window just shows up for a split second and disappears... How do I fix this
[21:13] <jon_> justm: did you use sudo on the chmod?
[21:13] <BloodyScum> henrique_
[21:13] <henrique_> BloodyScum
[21:13] <BloodyScum> henrique_ u in here?
[21:13] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: uhm i don't think so. i have all 160 gigs on either C: or D:. 150gb on C and 10gb on D. however on the C: drive i have about 30 gb left
[21:13] <henrique_> Yeah
[21:13] <Flare183> Should I have 3 kernels install at one time
[21:13] <jUSTm> yes
[21:13] <PriceChild> dissect, get suppose from transgaming.org
[21:13] <Slart> clear
[21:14] <BloodyScum> henrique_ k i have over 700 open right now
[21:14] <jUSTm> i keep trying every trick
[21:14] <PriceChild> Flare183, yes, older ones stay installed which you can fall back on if things go wrong.
[21:14] <jUSTm> i heard of
[21:14] <jUSTm> :)
[21:14] <henrique_> On different ips and same port?
[21:14] <marko-_-> it's an emergency if anyone knows...
[21:14] <Flare183> PriceChild:> thanks
[21:14] <PriceChild> dissect, *support* sorry, not suppose
[21:14] <tacone> you have windows data on d: ?
[21:14] <LjL> !language | marko-_-
[21:14] <ubotu> marko-_-: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[21:14] <LjL> marko-_-, first thing is, try from a live CD « sudo mount /dev/whatever /some/temporary/directory » where /dev/whatever is the Windows partition
[21:14] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: You have one drive ... with windows on the first partition
[21:14] <shawn34> PriceChild, I can't move files to trash on my storage hd, this is my fstab: /dev/sdb1	/var/local/storage	ext3	user,auto	0	2, any idea?
[21:15] <OldSpice> tacone: nope, windows data all on C: along with my documents. D: is for recovery and i can't even open up that drive.
[21:15] <ironfoot> register c3po5923
[21:15] <jon_> justm: don't know what to tell you. you could open the script in an editor and look to see if there is a problem with it
[21:15] <henrique_> BloodyScum, On different ips and same port?
[21:15] <jUSTm> i'll be back
[21:15] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: under devices top right you should show /dev/hda
[21:15] <nickweb> okies - my wlan0 interface isnt appearing.. I've just tried following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/mrv8k and it all looks installed ok - i cant scan tho (at the end of the documtn) - but under manage connections, wlan0 isnt listed.. any ideas?
[21:15] <tomg_> hi all, im trying to map some keyboard keys with xmodmap, but they arent picked up by xev, is there another way i can try?
[21:15] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: yes i see /dev/hda under devices
[21:15] <tacone> recovery ? preinstalled laptop manufactorers BS :-)
[21:15] <BloodyScum> henrique_ yes
[21:16] <Flare183> nickweb:> it could be eth1
[21:16] <OldSpice> tacone: haha but it saved me a bunch of times when reformatting. it also saves keeping track of recovery disks.
[21:16] <Flare183> nickweb: instead of wlan0
[21:16] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: and you say you have 30 unallocated on C not in use by windows?   One physical drive or two?
[21:16] <henrique_> So why the hell is this happening?
[21:16] <nickweb> eth1 is listed as a wirless connection (i have a wired port on the computer)
[21:17] <whabo> how do i open up ZIP files anyone??? what programs are there are unpacking and packing zip / rar / etc ??? anyone? thx
[21:17] <Jack_Sparrow> !ohmy | henrique_
[21:17] <marko-_-> LjL, thanks
[21:17] <ubotu> henrique_: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[21:17] <Flare183> nickweb:> oh
[21:17] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: i have only 1 hard drive. it is split into two partitions as of now. C: and D:. D: can't be touched because it is for recovery.  On drive C: i have 30 gb left that is not occupied
[21:17] <PriceChild> whabo, double click it to see what's inside
[21:17] <Slart> henrique_: are you sure iptables isn't running? perhaps you installed firestarter a long time ago?
[21:17] <erUSUL> whabo: file roller yu need to install the rar or unrar program
[21:17] <erUSUL> !rar | whabo
[21:17] <ubotu> whabo: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[21:18] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: not occupied.. as in free space on your windows C   or unallocated.. there is a difference
[21:18] <whabo> PriceChild = it gives me an error whern i do that
[21:18] <tacone> Jack_Sparrow: i guess it's free space, not unallocated :-)
[21:18] <henrique_> Slart, it's not running.
[21:18] <jaggz-> how do I get vnc (server) to only be accessible via certain hosts?  does it use hosts.allow/deny or do I have to use firewalling?
[21:18] <juancho> aqui se habla español, ingles o ambos??
[21:18] <MasterShrek> !es | juancho
[21:18] <erUSUL> !es | juancho
[21:18] <ubotu> juancho: Si busca ayuda en español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, allí obtendrá más ayuda.
[21:18] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: free space on windows C. I'm not that computer savy :[
[21:18] <EnderTheThird> just a heads up:  homemade break is awesome!
[21:18] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: So you didnt shrink your ntfs with partition magic?
[21:19] <PriceChild> whabo, the error might be handy...
[21:19] <whabo> erUSUL: i cant get file roller to download... why? i mena i keep getting an error file not found when i try to on synaptic .. HElp please
[21:19] <juancho> oh, sorry, I just wanted to know the official languaje here...
[21:19] <jaggz-> breaking bread?
[21:19] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: no i did not. i just jumped straight to gparted
[21:19] <jaggz-> what's "ambos"?
[21:19] <MasterShrek> juancho: ingles :)
[21:19] <EnderTheThird> there was a recipe on digg a couple months ago.  finally got around to making some last night.  awesome
[21:19] <erUSUL> whabo: go to Aplication>Add Remove
[21:19] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: ok  so click on your c drive in gparted then go up and umount-unmount it
[21:19] <Slart> jaggz-: firewalling I think.. that's what I use
[21:20] <whabo> erUSUL: okay thx ill try there
[21:20] <jaggz-> how do we firewall nowadays?
[21:20] <erUSUL> !firewall
[21:20] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[21:20] <Slart> jaggz-: you can restrict it to only listen on a certain interface.. but for anytihng finer you'll have to use a firewall I think
[21:20] <jaggz-> okay, still using iptables.  Jjjjjjjjjust making suuuuuuuuuure :)
[21:20] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: FYI running out of free space on windows is not a good thing.....
[21:20] <jaggz-> my kb repeat is weird :/
[21:20] <juancho> i've just installed the x-chat.... it is to get support or something??
[21:20] <Slart> jaggz-: same as 10 years ago I guess. iptables.. firestarter or similar if you want to
[21:20] <ActySofts> I'm having some serious problems with ALSA, the volume is locked at 100% for everything and so it PCM, locked on mute, and I can't change them at all...help?
[21:20] <erUSUL> juancho: is an irc client
[21:21] <jaggz-> slart,                 hmm.. ok, thanks.
[21:21] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: im using the built in gparted. i don't see a option to unmount C. and if i do unmount it, wil i lose my data?
[21:21] <jaggz-> slart, i use          ibtables I think for some things
[21:21] <jaggz-> regarding some bridge code patch I haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad to put into a system a long time ago
[21:21] <morphles> how come fluxbox is installed wit super shi***y configuration without even a root menu?
[21:21] <tacone> OldSpice: unmounting won't harm data.
[21:21] <juancho> irc client?? what does it means??
[21:21] <jaggz-> this is not typical kb repeat ratttttttttte by the way.. there's something wrong with this system
[21:22] <erUSUL> juancho: a program to acces channels like this one is like mirc in windows
[21:22] <ActySofts> juancho: it's what you're using currently to chat with us
[21:22] <Flare183> !irc
[21:22] <ubotu> A list of official Ubuntu IRC channels, as well as IRC clients for Ubuntu, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat - For a general list of !freenode channels, see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#channellist - See also !Guidelines
[21:22] <juancho> ah, all right....
[21:22]  * arashOio is back (gone 04:02:44)
[21:22] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: since you dont have much room free....  I would not bother with the extra partitions and all that...    back out of the installer and use the installer option to shrink your ntfs and automatic install...  I hate to see people working at this level without any sort of backup.
[21:22] <Martin_Nilsson> hi there, any1 here know about a page for F/OSS bounties?
[21:22] <ActySofts> I'm having some serious problems with ALSA, the volume is locked at 100% for everything and so it PCM, locked on mute, and I can't change them at all...help?
[21:22] <juancho> so, Can I get support or give support here, right??
[21:23] <ActySofts> juancho: right, if it's about something related to ubuntu
[21:23] <erUSUL> juancho: yes you can... and in #ubuntu-es you can do so in spanish
[21:23] <jaggz-> juancho, both have to be possible though I think.
[21:23] <OldSpice>  firsttacone: jack_sparrow: well i have 30 gb left on my C drive and that's all the space i have. I think it would be best if i put all my files on my external hd to clear up space than try this again. I'm not really familiar with unmounting and unallocated spaces.
[21:23] <juancho> oh... I love it... hahaha
[21:23] <EnderTheThird> Anyone know of a better mp3 streamer than gnump3d?  I'd rather it be able to act as though the MP3's were local so I could use Portable Winamp to browse my music while at work and whatnot
[21:24] <juancho> it is what i was looking for!!!!
[21:24] <erUSUL> ActySofts: alsamixer on console doesn't work ?
[21:24] <mustafa> hi, i've problem on my gutsy i can not use compiz
[21:24] <ActySofts> erUSUL: no
[21:24] <mustafa> my graphics card is GeForce 7300 LE TC
[21:24] <MasterShrek> EnderTheThird: is it over a samba share?
[21:24] <Flare183> !compiz | mustafa
[21:24] <ubotu> mustafa: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - help in #compiz-fusion
[21:24] <erUSUL> ActySofts: are you on the audio group ?? run id on a console
[21:24] <jon_> wow I am lagging in IRC but I am getting 42582k/s on this download I don't get it
[21:24] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: i'm going to boot up in windows and use partition magic.
[21:24] <tacone> OldSpice: i guess you should do that just as a safety measure
[21:24] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: I would hate to see you try to use all available space on C  .. if you have options for backing up some files to an external or wherever.  I would use them
[21:24] <ActySofts> erUSUL: of course I am, it worked before
[21:25] <EnderTheThird> MasterShrek: No, it's not within my LAN.  For my LAN, I just mount the media HDD over the network.
[21:25] <tacone> brb
[21:25] <juancho> Im kinda new at Linux, at Ubuntu, actually.... so... I was never heard about this x-chat... It's grate....
[21:25] <ActySofts> Flare183: try to use '>' instead of '|' with ubotu so you won't clutter up the channel
[21:25] <MasterShrek> oh i see now that i read it again EnderTheThird, im not really sure though...
[21:25] <ActySofts> please
[21:25] <Flare183> ActySofts: ok
[21:25] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: tacone: okay thanks. well it looks like i have to battle ubuntu later after i make some unallocated space.
[21:26] <void^> EnderTheThird: try sshfs
[21:26] <EnderTheThird> MasterShrek:  yeah.  Gnump3d is functional, but manually setting up playlists through the web interface kinda sucks when you're used to Exaile and the like.
[21:26] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: We are here to help.. and want to help you avoid a problem at this point
[21:26] <tacone> OldSpice: is not that hard. but given the situation, better not risk to loose data
[21:26] <ActySofts> OldSpice: don't forget to defragment first!
[21:26] <EnderTheThird> void^:  I'm in Windows at work.  That matter?
[21:26] <tacone> just for the logs: i was fine for a while with a 10gb ubuntu installation
[21:26] <void^> EnderTheThird: oh. no idea.
[21:26] <ActySofts> help?
[21:27] <tacone> fine and happy :-)
[21:27] <juancho> ActySofts: I know that ext3, the filesystem ubuntu uses, doesn't need to defragment....
[21:27] <ActySofts> tacone: I have about 7 gigs dedicated to ubuntu
[21:27] <juancho> it is right??
[21:27] <ActySofts> juancho: I mean to defrag your window partition
[21:28] <juancho> ActySofts: ah, all right... I had that little doubt...
[21:28] <EnderTheThird> void^:  heh, alright.  thanks for trying though.    I wish I could pause those downloads through ssh.  Though I suppose I could just kill the process and restart the program later (should auto-resume, i think)
[21:28] <ActySofts> I'm having some serious problems with ALSA, the volume is locked at 100% for everything and so it PCM, locked on mute, and I can't change them at all...help?
[21:28] <Jack_Sparrow> juancho: HE was talking to a specific user where we were talking about a windows partition.... and needed to shrink it before installing ubuntu...
[21:29] <kingace> yo, i get a blank screen when i boot ubuntu with fglrx
[21:29] <juancho> Jack_Sparrow: ok, thanks, and sorry for disturbing, hehehe
[21:29] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[21:29] <nano__> how is azureus pronounced?
[21:29] <void^> EnderTheThird: i suppose you could setup a vpn tunnel to access samba securely
[21:29] <kingace> any ideas as to how i could fix that?
[21:29] <DrAk0> why dpkg-reconfigure locales is not poping the menu just generating all the locales its want
[21:29] <Jack_Sparrow> tacone: Yes, 30 would be fine.. but... I am more concerned about him having nothing left in windows...
[21:30] <EnderTheThird> void^:  sounds like a lot of work, heh
[21:30] <ActySofts> nano__: this is the support channel, we don't handle that stuff, go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azureus for that
[21:30] <jUSTmE> what is the command icc ?
[21:30] <ActySofts> I'm having some serious problems with ALSA, the volume is locked at 100% for everything and so it PCM, locked on mute, and I can't change them at all...help?
[21:30] <juancho> ActySofts: wich computer do you have??
[21:30] <Jack_Sparrow> !patience | ActySofts
[21:30] <ubotu> ActySofts: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[21:30] <ActySofts> juancho: what do you mean?
[21:30] <tacone> Jack_Sparrow: he could have done a 15 gb install, but you're right. better for him to backup his data first. I do have a coscience :-)
[21:30] <rsfriends> when i try to start awn, i dont star, what can the problem be?
[21:30] <jUSTmE> icc version
[21:30] <ActySofts> sorry jack,
[21:31] <mrdinkles> How can i install Flashplayer-- Is the plugin still down?
[21:31] <juancho> model, factory
[21:31] <jUSTmE> icc -- version
[21:31] <the_greeter_> jUSTmE: see man page?
[21:31] <void^> EnderTheThird: definitely a lot of work, yes ;)
[21:31] <jUSTmE> none listed
[21:31] <juancho> ActySofts: model, mark
[21:31] <jUSTmE> no icc
[21:31] <erUSUL> mrdinkles: yes still down
[21:31] <crush_groove> is there a hardware chan ?
[21:31] <jUSTmE> how do i check a version for a software
[21:31] <jUSTmE> ?
[21:31] <SlimShaggy> show
[21:31] <Jack_Sparrow> tacone: at 15 gig for ubuntu he would have less than 10% free in his windows install which is too close for me to call.
[21:31] <mrdinkles> erUSUL: is there an alternative, what about gnash?
[21:31] <ActySofts> juancho: an old dell desktop, p3 600 mhz, 256 megs of sdram, 13 gigs hdd (maxtor i believe), ati rage 3d pro x2 with 8 megs
[21:32] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: how much space do you recommend to leave on windows and make for unallocated spaces?
[21:32] <erUSUL> jUSTmE: apt-cache policy package
[21:32] <jUSTmE> k
[21:32] <EnderTheThird> void^:  I guess Gnump3d will work just fine for now, ha.
[21:32] <rsfriends> when i try to start awn, i dont star, what can the problem be?
[21:32] <erUSUL> mrdinkles: never used it. i have flash instaled (did it before the breakage)
[21:32] <mrdinkles> nooooo
[21:32] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: I try to keep a minimum of 10%
[21:32] <juancho> ActySofts: so, your problem is you cant up or down the volume,isn't it??
[21:33] <dn4> http://www.verifiedvotingfoundation.org/article.php?id=6529  <--- Hax on Texas Voting mAchines possible
[21:33] <the_greeter_> jUSTmE :http://chautauqua.bu.edu/computation/linuxcluster/manpages/icc.html
[21:33] <ActySofts> juancho: yes, all is locked up
[21:33] <melkor> wow kde 4 is not cool
[21:33] <ActySofts> if I turn it down, it goes back up
[21:33] <Slart> mrdinkles: last time I tried gnash it only worked on the simpler flash applets.. the annoying ads mostly =/
[21:33] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: 10% of the total amount of hd space for ubuntu or free space?
[21:33] <mustafa> Flare183: well my problem is when i activate aestetical graphics my system reboots and after my graphics driver switching to VESA
[21:33] <ActySofts> if I try to unmute PCM, it stays muted
[21:33] <tacone> OldSpice: 10% of total win partition.
[21:33] <juancho> ActySofts: demn!!! try to do it in a term....
[21:33] <wols_> mustafa: what driver do you use?
[21:33] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: 10% of the space you use for windows should be free... but that is my personal choice
[21:34] <ericvw> Is there a way to limit home directory space for addtional user accounts in ubuntu?
[21:34] <Flare183> mustafa: well then i would at least try the mesa driver if that doesn't work then ask the compiz people
[21:34] <mustafa> wols_: hello, i'm using ubuntus own which cames with install
[21:34] <erUSUL> ericvw: disk quotas
[21:34] <ActySofts> Slart: it works fine even on youtube vids, however, it's alpha, thus the movie is kinda laggy, and the interface of it is broken, but in the end it works ok
[21:34] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: so if your total windows install is 150 gig... add 15 gig for free for a total of 165 for that partition
[21:34] <shamas> does anybody know why all of a sudden the icons in the toolbars of open office would change to text???
[21:34] <wols_> mustafa: ubuntu comes with more than a dozen drivers for videocards. which one do you use?
[21:34] <ActySofts> juancho: alsamixer doesn't work as well
[21:34] <juancho> ericvw: make a partition with mount point in /home
[21:34] <Slart> ActySofts: oh? they have improved it then.. good to know
[21:35] <ActySofts> yeah, it's getting better, still alpha though
[21:35] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: It may just be my opinion, but anything less is cutting it too close
[21:35] <ericvw> juancho: I don't want to do it based on partitions though
[21:35] <mustafa> wols_: i selected GeForce 7series from Graphics Settings and also install nvidia glx (new)
[21:35] <Bounce> does anybody know something about nic bonding with gutsy x64 ?
[21:35] <juancho> ericvw: hahah sorry...
[21:35] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: You can also ask in #windows what they feel should be free space on that drive
[21:35] <Ademan> does anyone know how to "focus" on the gtk menu bar with just the keyboard?
[21:36] <juancho> ericvw: so, I don't have any idea to do that... sorry...
[21:36] <ericvw> juancho: Thanks though
[21:36] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: okay thanks a lot!
[21:36] <juancho> ActySofts, what do you men??
[21:36] <mustafa> wols_: brb i downloaded nvidias own driver from their site i need to exit from Xwin
[21:36] <juancho> ericvw, your wellcome....
[21:36] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: we would love to see you up and running.. but We would rather you have both working fine for the long run
[21:37] <ActySofts> juancho: I mean alsamixer can't change the volume or unmute anything
[21:37] <maddash> ActySofts: are you kiding?
[21:37] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: haha ya same here. would you recommend making a 1 partition for windows, 1 for documents, and the other for ubuntu?
[21:37] <ActySofts> no
[21:37] <juancho> ActySofts, so, why don't you try to control it in a terminal??
[21:37] <Phusion> thats exactly what alsa does
[21:37] <mrdinkles> Whats the command i use for when Flashplayer is back up and working?
[21:37] <ActySofts> I wish I could record a video but my card is very weak
[21:37] <jUSTmE> there is a  icc.cfg
[21:37] <ActySofts> juancho: I am from a terminal...
[21:38] <maddash> ActySofts: that was rhetorical. you obviously don't know what alsamixer does. :)
[21:38] <juancho> ActySofts, or you have??
[21:38] <Tilllinux> heya guys :) I've got some problems with totem. Whenever I open *any* kind of file with totem, processor usage goes up to 100% and ma ram is also filled with... umm I don't have a clue ;)
[21:38] <erUSUL> Bounce: i guess it is the same as in any other ubuntu/debian system... http://www.howtoforge.com/nic_bonding
[21:38] <juancho> ah, ok.....
[21:38] <juancho> ActySofts, wich ubuntu version u have??
[21:38] <jUSTmE> icc.cfg it was installed in the intel directory
[21:38] <the_greeter_> ericvw: http://www.debianadmin.com/implement-and-manage-disk-quotas-in-linux.html
[21:38] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: primary for windows.. extended with logical partitions for docs and stuff,  ext3 for root  ext3 for home plus swap and wherever your restore partion ends up is fine
[21:38] <tacone> !ext3 | tacone
[21:38] <ActySofts> maddash: I know exactly, I've used it lots of times before, now it just doesn't work at all ,how hard is it to understand?
[21:38] <ActySofts> juancho: I'm using gutsy
[21:39] <Bounce> I have tried that i actualy found a link aggretation document on the forums
[21:39] <maddash> ActySofts: oh, sorry. you were describing your problem (I thought you were making an assertion)
[21:39] <juancho> ActySofts, before you change to gutsy, it used to work as well??
[21:39] <maddash> ActySofts: so the recording volume is too low?
[21:39] <ActySofts> juancho: I installed gutsy directly
[21:39] <MasterShrek> Tilllinux: install xine and see if the problem persists
[21:39] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: so that would be a total of 4 partitions correct?
[21:40] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: 5 with swap
[21:40] <Bounce> but I have to create an conf file in the directory modutils
[21:40] <Bounce> which I cannot find
[21:40] <ActySofts> maddash: everything is at 100%, but PCM is muted, and everything is locked, I can't change the vol of ANYTHING and I can't mure/unmute anything
[21:40] <wols_> Bounce: look in /etc
[21:40] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: but swap and home can share a partition correct?
[21:40] <juancho> oh...
[21:40] <Jack_Sparrow> no
[21:40] <OldSpice> oh
[21:41] <MasterShrek> ActySofts: open a terminal and type: sudo alsamixer
[21:41] <Jack_Sparrow> swap is its own partition
[21:41] <Bounce> Wols I know but there is no modutils
[21:41] <morphles> maybe stupid question but: wtf with sudo requiering user and not a root passwd????
[21:41] <OldSpice> but it can be on a logical so it will be an extension?
[21:41] <wols_> Jack_Sparrow: if you use a swapfile...
[21:41] <LjL> !root > morphles    (morphles, see the private message from Ubotu)
[21:41] <macd> Bounce,  /etc/modutils/ is on every ubuntu system.
[21:41] <juancho> ActySofts, you know?? I think this realese is not estable at all....
[21:41] <Jack_Sparrow> wols_: yes... IF you use a swap...
[21:41] <ActySofts> MasterShrek: nope, still the same
[21:41] <Bounce> nope not on the server version
[21:41] <maddash> ActySofts: pastebin /var/lib/alsa/asound.state
[21:41] <macd> Bounce, if for some reason its not, "sudo mkdir /etc/modutils"
[21:41] <stinkyfoot> how do i run xorgcfg from cli?
[21:41] <wols_> morphles: sudo requring would make sudo moot
[21:41] <Jack_Sparrow> bbl
[21:42] <morphles> wols_: what?
[21:42] <ActySofts> /var/lib/alsa/asound.state
[21:42] <Bounce> does modutils not correspond with some utils ?
[21:42] <wols_> stinkyfoot: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[21:42] <Slart> morphles: I think it's just a setting.. the user is allowed to do stuff.. he must prove that he is that user... I don't think a root password would make it any different
[21:42] <MasterShrek> stinkyfoot: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[21:42] <morphles> root is root
[21:42] <ActySofts> oops: bash: /var/lib/alsa/asound.state: No such file or directory
[21:42] <maddash> ActySofts: try again.
[21:42] <dkulchenko> Jack_Sparrow: well, i managed to get it to work
[21:42] <Phusion> stinkyfoot: probably a sudo in front of that command
[21:42] <stinkyfoot> wols_ that doesn't autoconfigure
[21:42] <wols_> morphles: it would mean there is no reason for sudo
[21:42] <juancho> ActySofts, why don't u try with the 6.06 relese?? Is the more stable.....
[21:42] <morphles> yes indeed
[21:42] <ActySofts> jauncho: it's too old
[21:42] <stinkyfoot> i don't know most of the specs for my graphics gard
[21:42] <macd> Bounce, just create the directory, create the config file from within it.
[21:42] <morphles> you su when you want to install...
[21:42] <ActySofts> and I'm not very keep of installing ubuntu again
[21:42] <Jack_Sparrow> dkulchenko: glad to hear it.. sorry I got a bit busy there. Hope that page helped
[21:42] <stinkyfoot> how do i get xserver to autoconfigure?
[21:42] <Phusion> stinkyfoot: you don't
[21:43] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: so i now have 80gb free space. i just took off all my videos off and install files. would this be enough for adding some unallocated space?
[21:43] <maddash> ActySofts: as root, 'alsactl store', then 'ls -l /var/lib/alsa/asound.state'
[21:43] <PriceChild> !xconfig | stinkyfoot
[21:43] <wols_> stinkyfoot: remove your xorg.conf. I doubt you like the results. have fun
[21:43] <ubotu> stinkyfoot: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg » - To configure only the driver and resolution, type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh » - See also !FixRes
[21:43] <Slart> morphles: with the current setting different users can have different kinds of root access.. one can be allowed to run gparted.. one can be allowed to run ping -f.. with a single root password it's all or nothing
[21:43] <Phusion> stinkyfoot: this is linux, you do things the hard way with linux :)
[21:43] <PriceChild> stinkyfoot, the second command
[21:43] <Jack_Sparrow> OldSpice: plenty
[21:43] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: i can leave 40 gb for windows and the other 40 for ubuntu correcT?
[21:43] <morphles> is there a way to change whis sudo behaiwour?
[21:43] <xzased> Howdy. How can I tar a folder?
[21:43] <Bounce> I have done that but no effect, in this file I need the command probeall
[21:43] <stinkyfoot> lies xorg.com says xorgconfig autoconfigures
 stinkyfoot: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[21:43] <Jack_Sparrow> I need to go, work calls
[21:43] <morphles> no way
[21:43] <dkulchenko> Jack_Sparrow: it did, thanks!
[21:43] <maddash> xzased: kerosene
[21:43] <ActySofts> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7841 2007-12-19 23:43 /var/lib/alsa/asound.state
[21:43] <morphles> there is such thing as groups
[21:43] <Bounce> but I cannot run it
[21:43] <wols_> morphles: no. as I said then sudo had no point existing
[21:43] <morphles> as i recall
[21:43] <OldSpice> jack_sparrow: okay, thank you for all your help
[21:43] <maddash> xzased: otherwise, 'man tar'
[21:43] <Slart> morphles: check man sudo.. might be something in the conf-file
[21:43] <Bounce> Wait I will check the document
[21:43] <linuxrookie> How do I remove flux from within the terminal
[21:43] <maddash> ActySofts: great, go pastebin it
[21:44] <juancho> ActySofts, but is the most estable!!!! but... wherever... I just have the gutsy because is the only one which have the driver for my wlan....
[21:44] <Phusion> linuxrookie: I'd imagine sudo apt-get remove flux
[21:44] <wols_> linuxrookie: flux being fluxbox? apt-get remove <stuff>
[21:44] <ActySofts> maddash: what to pastebin?
[21:44] <stinkyfoot> i need to completely reconfigure my graphics setup automatically
[21:44] <maddash> ActySofts: the file I told you before
[21:44] <stinkyfoot> how do i do this?
[21:44] <linuxrookie> got it thanks.. Rookie here trying to figure this stuff out
[21:44] <ActySofts> juancho: stop insisting, if we don't solve this then it will remain buggy
[21:44] <stinkyfoot> obviously there is a way since upon install ubuntu does it
[21:44] <ActySofts> maddash: ok
[21:44] <Slart> morphles: plus.. sudo makes it harder to just walk by someones workstation and do rm -f / | echo y or something
[21:45] <nickrud> stinkyfoot, the newest X is supposed to, not the one in ubuntu. those commands given, the ones with -phigh (or replace with -pcritical) will autoconfig
[21:45] <PriceChild> Slart, please never put that command in here ever again
[21:45] <morphles> well just dont leave the root chell
[21:45] <Slart> PriceChild: I know.. I didn't even do it right
[21:45] <Linuxrookie> sorry I booted myself
[21:45] <morphles> shell*
[21:45] <stinkyfoot> nickrud i ran the first one, without phigh, and it didn't autoconfigure
[21:45] <juancho> ActySofts, ok, ok... I'll stop... why don't u try changing the sound controller... use the other (I don't remmember the name) instead alsa....
[21:45] <nickrud> stinkyfoot, true
[21:45] <morphles> and when sudo requires user passwd then whats the point? ir someone knows user pass they can do anything

[21:46] <OldSpice> May I ask for some assistance on making unallocated space?
[21:46] <nickrud> stinkyfoot, if you hit enter on every suggested option there, you will end up with what -pcritical would give you. not including the option lets you review or change to taste
[21:46] <PriceChild> maddash_, I am here. There was little ned for that.
[21:46] <the_greeter_> OldSpice: yes, of course
[21:46] <morphles> im seriousle considering ill could be going back to gentoo....
[21:47] <wols_> PriceChild: you took your sweet time tho...
[21:47] <maddash_> maddash_: and I've got a tiny term
[21:47] <maddash_> PriceChild: ^^
[21:47] <stinkyfoot> nickrud this might sound stupid but it tells me video card is in pci.1.0.0 is that the agp slot?
[21:47] <xzased> Thanks
[21:47] <wols_> stinkyfoot: if lspci agrees, then yes
[21:47] <OldSpice> the_greeter_: thank you, i'm going to be using partiton magic to do this, do you know how much space i should make? I have a 160 gb hard drive and it is all being occupied by windows. i have 80gb free space left.
[21:48] <nickrud> stinkyfoot, see wols
[21:48] <stinkyfoot> yea this isn't working because it's not telling me how much ram is in the card
[21:48] <maddash> maddash_: remain still next time
[21:48] <wols_> stinkyfoot: that is irrelveant both RAM size and PCI bus can be left blank without any problem
[21:48] <nickrud> stinkyfoot, doesn't need to, X will determing that at run time
[21:48] <tacone> !ask | OldSpice
[21:48] <ubotu> OldSpice: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[21:48] <stinkyfoot> k
[21:48] <thomy> lol
[21:49] <OldSpice> lol okay.
[21:49] <stinkyfoot> anyone; should i write default files section to the configuration file in xserver-xorg configure?
[21:49] <Phusion> stinkyfoot: yes
[21:50] <the_greeter_> OldSpice: I've never used partition magic before, but I think half for windows and half for ubuntu sounds fine. You may want a swap partition for ubuntu depending on how much ram you have.
[21:50] <Phusion> OldSpice: you definitely want swap space
[21:50] <LjL> ActySofts: you did this *three* times in a row after being kicked... be a little careful please :|
[21:50] <OldSpice> phusion: yes i do, i was planning 2gb of swap
[21:50] <LjL> [22:50:16] <ActySofts> here it is: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48936/
[21:50] <stinkyfoot> ok how do i launch my gui now?
[21:50] <Phusion> OldSpice: thats good, a bit much, but yeah
[21:50] <stinkyfoot> to see if all of this workeD?
[21:50] <Phusion> stinkyfoot: startx
[21:50] <tacone> OldSpice: 1gb should suffice.
[21:50] <OldSpice> so would 30gb for ubuntu, 2gb for swap be good?
[21:51] <Phusion> yeah OldSpice, just use 1GB though 1024MB
[21:51] <OldSpice> pusion: tacone: alright.
[21:51] <Tilllinux> MasterShrek: thanks, worked ;)
[21:51] <Phusion> :/
[21:51] <stinkyfoot> k i guess configuration worked fine but im in a different user name
[21:51] <the_greeter_> hehehe
[21:51] <stinkyfoot> should i just restart
[21:51] <Phusion> stinkyfoot: yah
[21:51] <lImItaO> anyone with a nokia 6120 working on Ubuntu??
[21:52] <MasterShrek> np Tilllinux
[21:52] <Phusion> stinkyfoot: actually ctrl + alt + backspace will restart you to login screen
[21:52] <OldSpice> the problem is i need to make some unallocated space first so i can install ubuntu. im aware of i need to make a /root partition, /home partition, and a swap right?
[21:52] <stinkyfoot> thanks much
[21:52] <Phusion> how'd that work out for ya Linuxrookie
[21:52] <stinkyfoot> anyone know a good beginners linux book?
[21:52] <Phusion> OldSpice: you need to shrink your current partition
[21:52] <Linuxrookie> how do I know if I have the best repos to date? someone told me earlier to update my repos?
[21:52] <Phusion> stinkyfoot: O'Reilly's "Running Linux" is good for a general linux perspective
[21:52] <MasterShrek> OldSpice: the /home isnt nessicary, but you can make it if you want to
[21:52] <Phusion> stinkyfoot: but isn't Debian or Ubuntu based
[21:52] <stinkyfoot> k
[21:52] <ActySofts> LjL: I know, once I got banned from my own channel (on another IRC server) when Firefox didn't copy a link properly to the clipboard and I still had a 400+ lines long text file in the clipboard, and got my bot to ban me, I had to kill it
[21:53] <OldSpice> matershrek: /home is for documents correct?
[21:53] <stinkyfoot> how about an online resource?
[21:53] <tacone> stinkyfoot: ubuntu specific books should also be available
[21:53] <PriceChild> Linuxrookie, by default, ubuntu will ensure that it is updated fine.
[21:53] <Phusion> stinkyfoot: ubuntuforums.org
[21:53] <stinkyfoot> yes yes
[21:53] <MasterShrek> OldSpice: its for user settings, and documents and whatnot
[21:53] <stinkyfoot> but i want from the ground up
[21:53] <Linuxrookie> PriceChild: Thank you
[21:53] <Linuxrookie> PriceChild: I wasn't sure, like the name says I'm a rookie
[21:53] <OldSpice> phusion: how would i shrink my current partition? you mean create unallocated space?
[21:53] <ActySofts> OldSpice: you should read this: https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/windows/C/
[21:53] <Phusion> OldSpice: you're in windows w/ partition magic?
[21:54] <nickrud> Linuxrookie, and if you have any doubt, system->admin->synaptic , reload button
[21:54] <OldSpice> phusion: yea
[21:54] <Phusion> OldSpice: one partition? just one big hard drive?
[21:54] <OldSpice> phusion: yes
[21:54] <Phusion> OldSpice: you need to smallerize the partition
[21:54] <Linuxrookie> nickrud: Ok thanks
[21:54] <Phusion> which will leave unallocated space
[21:54] <OldSpice> phusion: okay thank you, and actysofts i'll read that thank you.
[21:54] <MasterShrek> lol "smallerize"
[21:54] <Phusion> OldSpice: got it? you're using all your space now, you need to make your NTFS partition smaller to allow for Ubuntu
[21:54] <Phusion> :)

[21:55] <tacone> good night|day|whatever to all. bye
[21:55] <Linuxrookie> I recently switched over from Microcrap to linux and I like to do webdesigns is quantis the closest thing to dreamweaver?
[21:55] <learninglinux> here's an odd question - i'm trying to run a headless server,  but occasionally i lose the ability to ssh or vnc into it.  when i hook up a keyboard/mouse/monitor -it's still running, but without internet.  when i open a terminal locally, and ping google, it works.  then i can access it remotely again.  it is possible that the ethernet port is falling asleep? if so, how to keep awake?
[21:55] <OldSpice> phusion: okie dokie! do you advice making 1 partition just for 1 windows, and another for ubuntu, and one big document partition in fat32 so ubuntu and windows can both share it?
[21:55] <dominik> i have installed on my gibbon: compiz and xgl-server, after restart i see only wallpaper and cursor, what i need to do??
[21:55] <the_greeter_> stinkyfoot: have a look at slackbook.org ("If you learn RedHat/Fedora/Suse/Mandriva, you know RedHat/Fedora/Suse/Mandriva. If you learn Slackware you know Linux")
[21:55] <ActySofts> well, back to my problem, has anyone read my paste?
[21:56] <MasterShrek> slackware ftw!
[21:56] <Druciferre> hello, can someone help me with a wireless problem ?
[21:56] <Phusion> OldSpice: I'm not sure what you just said right now, but what you need to do is make your current partition smaller, then you can do the rest of the partitioning within the linux installer
[21:56] <jpeterman> Can someone tell me the difference between "Desktop User, Administrator, and Limited" is for users?
[21:56] <Phusion> OldSpice: the ubuntu installer will ask you if you want to manually edit your partitions, you can do that, create an ext3 partition, then a swap
[21:56] <LjL> ActySofts: yes, but i don't know what the problem is, i missed that part
[21:56] <Phusion> OldSpice: you'll be fine
[21:57] <Phusion> OldSpice: use that extra space you made in Windows, you'll see it as UNUSED SPACE or some such nonsense
[21:57] <genii> jpeterman: Thats a question for ##windows not here
[21:57] <OldSpice> phusion: and if i decide to make a /home partition too, should i also make it as a ext3?
[21:57] <Bruuttus> How can i get Ntfs working in ubuntu. Or can i?
[21:57] <ActySofts> LjL: ok, if I try to use any piece of software to change the volume or mute/unmute any channels, I can't, because the volume is locked at 100% for everything ad PCM is muted (and locked), thus I have no sound
[21:57] <Phusion> OldSpice: yes.
[21:57] <LjL> !ntfs > Bruuttus    (Bruuttus, see the private message from Ubotu)
[21:57] <ActySofts> LjL: I'm using Gutsy
[21:58] <the_greeter_> !ntfs > the_greeter_
[21:58] <Druciferre> Bruutus: NTFS support is supposed to work in 7.10 Gutsy perfectly fine
[21:58] <wib> hi there. i can't get my mic to work. in the sound settings dialogue, i get "Failed to construct test pipeline for 'gconfaudiosrc ...". (feitsy)
[21:58] <h40> If i am dual-booting windows/unbutu and delete my ubuntu partition, will I still be able to boot windows?
[21:58] <Druciferre> h40, yes
[21:58] <Phusion> h40: yeah, in theory, the boot loader is loaded into MBR, not hard drive
[21:58] <Druciferre> assuming you have Grub or LILO installed
[21:58] <h40> will ubuntu still be an entry on my MBR?
[21:58] <Phusion>   ^^^^^^
[21:59] <Phusion> h40: GRUB or Lilo will, yes.
[21:59] <ActySofts> h40: yes

[21:59] <MasterShrek> nvm, no pm lol
[21:59] <h40> if i re-install ubuntu will it create another MBR entry or use the existing one?
[21:59] <ActySofts> h40: plug in your windows cd, use the recovery console and type "fixmbr"
[21:59] <Druciferre> h40: create a new one,
[21:59] <h40> ok thanks alot guyts
[21:59] <Phusion> da
[21:59] <h40> ./girls
[22:00] <genii> h40: If you want to revert to what windows was using boot to it's install cd and the recovery console and use the fixmbr command from there. You can ask in ##windows channel for more help if need be
[22:00] <Druciferre> Can anyone help me with a wireless problem ?

[22:01] <ubotu> Druciferre: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[22:01] <adam> hello all
[22:01] <adam> ive got a problem with gutsy
[22:01] <the_greeter_> !hi > adam
[22:01] <adam> i just isntalled it on my computer
[22:02] <brobostigon> adam: whats the problem??
[22:02] <ActySofts> bump to my problem
[22:02] <abranches> hello everyone
[22:02] <lomez> Sorry, i got booted off my wifi network
[22:02] <the_greeter_> !hi > abranches
[22:02] <adam> and when the video driver is ati it boots with no usplash, but when its fglrx radeon or anything it just hangs on a blank screen where usplash should be
[22:02] <ActySofts> hmm, where has !hi gone?
[22:02] <lomez> Can someone tell me the difference between "Desktop User, Administrator, and Limited" is for users?
[22:02] <macogw> the_greeter_: you just sit around waiting for people to say that, so you can send the bot at them?
[22:02] <alecwh> I'm using Ubuntu 7.10 with my laptop [Dell Latitude D630], and I cannot get WPA wireless to work. Can someone help me get it working? I don't know where to start.
[22:02] <macogw> ActySofts: > makes it PM the perso
[22:02] <macogw> n
[22:03] <the_greeter_> macogw : im very alone
[22:03] <ActySofts> oh, I forgot, lol
[22:03] <PriceChild> adam, the driver isn't loaded until a long time after usplash.
[22:03] <abranches> how can I change my themes back to metacity themes? I tried compiz and now I can't have the effects and the default ubuntu theme at the same time
[22:03] <Druciferre> I can connect to wireless networks, however, after viewing a page internet access seems to die, but all indicators say i'm still connected the to network. I've used Sabayon, Ubuntu, and tested both on my desktop and laptop, and I tested the laptop on two different networks.
[22:03] <PriceChild> abranches, are you missing window borders completely?
[22:03] <Druciferre> the problem is the same in every situation
[22:03] <Bruuttus> !FUSE
[22:03] <ubotu> FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) is a !kernel driver that allows non-root users to create their own filesystems. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_in_Userspace for more on FUSE.  Some examples of filesystems that use FUSE are !ntfs-3g, sshfs and isofs. A full list of Filesystems that use FUSE is here:  http://fuse.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/FileSystems
[22:04] <savvis00> abranches you used the emerald?
[22:04] <adam> PriceChild: well when it's ati it eventually boots into ubuntu, but when its fglrx it eventually brings up gdm, albeit without usplash
[22:04] <lomez> Can someone tell me the difference between "Desktop User, Administrator, and Limited" is for users?
[22:04] <abranches> PriceChild: no I don't. I simply have the compiz/emerald themes instead of the default themes
[22:05] <jorgp> I just purchased a new 17" LCD widescreen, using ubuntu 7.10 how do I tell it to use the 1440x900 resolution, its not in the list
[22:05] <docgnome> is there a app for ubuntu that is like stickies on os x?
[22:05] <PriceChild> adam, not effected by the X driver.
[22:05] <adam> PriceChild: well then waht could it be?
[22:05] <ActySofts> docgnome: Tomboy Notes?
[22:05] <brobostigon> iomez: its obvious, desktop use has limited permissions, admin can do anything, and limited is the same as desktop.
[22:05] <PriceChild> abranches, the default uses gtk-window-decorator which displays the gtk themes...
[22:05] <morphles> how do i make that when i change keyboard input language it changes for ALL windoes not only for current?
[22:05] <PriceChild> adam, I don't know.
[22:05] <Stylee> why does the cursor of the mose desapear in dosbox? I know I gt the mose back in X with ctrl f10
[22:06] <docgnome> ActySofts: thanks
[22:06] <dominik> hello, i have installed on my gibbon: compiz and xgl-server, after restart i see only wallpaper and cursor, what i need to do??
[22:06] <ActySofts> If I try to use any piece of software to change the volume or mute/unmute any channels, I can't, because the volume is locked at 100% for everything ad PCM is muted (and locked), thus I have no sound; I'm using Gutsy
[22:06] <adam> PriceChild: but why is it that with different X drivers i get different results
[22:06] <adam> as in, wtih one it eventually boots and witht he other it freezes
[22:06] <jorgp> or better yet, have i redetect my monitor
[22:06] <savvis00> abranches try to uninstall emerald, remove the .emerald (and .compiz i think) folder from your home folder, and then reinstall compiz. after that reboot your machine, that should do it
[22:06] <PriceChild> adam, I don't believe you.
[22:07] <Jasnation> ubuntu isn't recognizing my swap partition. it says there is 4gb free swap space, but it won't utilize it, and it won't hibernate(it just crashes). what should I do?
[22:07] <Nanim> !
[22:07] <dominik> thanks savvis00
[22:07] <Flare183> How can I remove a place off of the "Remote Places" on Konqueror
[22:07] <Phusion> Jasnation: tried looking at swap file w/ livecd?
[22:07] <dominik> savvis00: will try
[22:07] <adam> pricechild, i dont mean differnet results in general; i mean in relation to my problem, since u said it doesnt make any difference
[22:07] <savvis00> dominik it wasn't for you, it was for abranches :)
[22:08] <abranches> PriceChild, I typed "gtk-window-decorator --replace" in the terminal and now I have the GTK themes. Thanks!
[22:08] <Druciferre> Jasnation: there is a command to turn on swap space,i believe it's "swapon /dev/hda2" where /dev/hda2 is your swap partition
[22:08] <Jasnation> phusion: I don't have a live cd
[22:08] <dominik> savvis00: will be something for me?? :)
[22:08] <brophat> can I buy any wireless nic?
[22:08] <brobostigon> flare183: try #kubuntu
[22:08] <Phusion> Jasnation: do you have an Ubuntu install cd?
[22:08] <Mazon> how do I install ubuntu without installing the mono stuff ?
[22:08]  * PriceChild highfives abranches
[22:08] <Phusion> Jasnation: cuz thats a livecd
[22:08] <Flare183> brobostigon: i have no answer
[22:08] <abranches> savvis00, that's not necessary anymoe I have found the solution :)
[22:08] <Jasnation> druciferre: what can I use to see my partitions
[22:08] <Flare183> brobostigon: their just talking about nonsense
[22:08] <mikebot> Can someone here help me get Starcraft running on ubuntu?
[22:08] <Druciferre> the command "parted" is really nice, or you can use GParted
[22:08] <Jasnation> phusion: I did a while ago, I think I gave it to a friend
[22:09] <brobostigon> flare183: we specialise here ubuntu, you are in kde, sp you need #kubuntu
[22:09] <savvis00> dominik, no idea, i just turn on the advanced effects in gutsy gibbon to activate compiz-fusion :)
[22:09] <ActySofts> mikebot: install wine, put your starcraft cd in and install as in windows
[22:09] <Flare183> k
[22:09] <Phusion> Jasnation: well, that sure would help.
[22:09] <KiD_ChAoS> what program do you guys use to burn data cd's
[22:09] <hdevalence__> what's a really fast filesystem?
[22:09] <Phusion> KiD_ChAoS: NeroLINUX
[22:10] <KiD_ChAoS> Phusion, ok
[22:10] <dominik> savvis00: i can`t :) only wallpaper i see
[22:10] <MasterShrek> KiD_ChAoS: is that a reference to californication with david duchovny?
[22:10] <Jasnation> phusion: how can I view all the partions on my harddrive from ubuntu (just to see their names)?
[22:10] <adam> why is fglrx freezing my startup on gutsy?
[22:10] <brobostigon> flare183: there mat be a #kde you can try??
[22:10] <ActySofts> hdevalence: XFS for big files, ext2 for general use (no journaling- watch out)
[22:10] <dominik> savvis00: and xchat, than i runed
[22:10] <MasterShrek> (your nick)
[22:10] <Phusion> hdevalence__: ext2 is super fast
[22:10] <Flare183> brobostigon:> ok
[22:10] <Phusion> hdevalence__: its non journalized like ext3, so it's quicker
[22:10] <dominik> savvis00: sorry for my english
[22:10] <Phusion> hdevalence__: that criminal Reizer says his fs is the fastest, but I dont think so
[22:11] <hdevalence__> XFS is better for big files?
[22:11] <ActySofts> yes
[22:11] <PriceChild> Phusion, that really isn't needed.
[22:11] <savvis00> dominik: press alt+F2 does it pop up the run window?
[22:11] <hdevalence__> Phusion: hasn't been proven
[22:11] <Phusion> PriceChild: he ASKED what was the fastest
[22:11] <dominik> savvis00: it is
[22:11] <Phusion> hdevalence__: nor disproven, but thats offtopic.
[22:11]  * Phusion hides
[22:11] <mikebot> ActySofts: I did that, but I get some video resolution error.
[22:11] <ActySofts> oh
[22:11] <savvis00> dominik: try this: killall gnome-panel
[22:11] <PriceChild> Phusion, You know exactly what I'm talking about, no more.
[22:11] <dominik> savvis00: kl
[22:12] <dominik> savvis00: k
[22:12] <ActySofts> mikebot: just a sec, lemme run winecfg, and you should, too
[22:12] <rhalff> wow ubuntu is unstable
[22:12] <dominik> savvis00: add this to autorun?? ;p
[22:12] <savvis00> wow so is vista
[22:12] <ASTX813> rhalff I'm gonna have to disagree with you on that one
[22:12] <KiD_ChAoS> wow im unstable
[22:12] <savvis00> dominik, no it should be fixed afterwards
[22:12] <mikebot> ActySofts: OK, I'll try that.
[22:13] <ActySofts> mikebot: run winecfg, go to graphics, check the "emulate a virtual desktop" and introduce a resolution, doesn't matter
[22:13] <Phusion> rhalff: out of the box, with supported hardware, I've found that not to be the case.
[22:13] <dominik> savvis00: ok :)
[22:13] <rhalff> uhm, how come I'm still able to do anything with all those amd64 packages installed running an intel dual core... :)
[22:13] <savvis00> dominik log off and restart it, see what happens
[22:13] <mikebot> ActySofts: OK, and now try running it?
[22:13] <ActySofts> yes
[22:13] <grout> I have a gutsy desktop and gutsy server on the same network.  I can see the comp but I cant see any directories.  Do i have to setup samba or something?
[22:13] <ActySofts> it'll be windowed, however
[22:13] <dominik> savvis00: ok, i will back i few moments
[22:13] <Phusion> grout: yes
[22:13] <savvis00> dominik ok waiting :)
[22:13] <brobostigon> ubuntu is not always unstable, it depends on many factors, for some people its unstable for some people its very stable.
[22:13] <Phusion> grout: sudo apt-get install samba or just search samba in synaptic
[22:14] <Mazon> anyone know how to install ubuntu without the mono dependencies ?
[22:14] <ActySofts> If I try to use any piece of software to change the volume or mute/unmute any channels, I can't, because the volume is locked at 100% for everything ad PCM is muted (and locked), thus I have no sound (http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48936/); I'm using Gutsy
[22:14] <grout> phusion: i have to setup a custom config file right?
[22:14] <Phusion> grout: yeah, I think there's a trigger for that
[22:14] <Phusion> !samba | grout
[22:14] <ubotu> grout: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[22:14] <brophat> are most wireless nics supported?
[22:14] <Flare183> !samba > grout
[22:14] <Phusion> god, I love pipes :)
[22:14] <rhalff> brobostigon: no it's very stable, I just replaced my motherboard and cpu, and the old one was an amd system, with an amd64 ubuntu, or shouldn't that matter ? :)
[22:14] <Phusion> |'s
[22:14] <rhalff> now it's an intel
[22:15] <Flare183> well i was told not to use the "|" but to use the ">"s
[22:15] <Phusion> I'd imagine the 64 arch is similar enough
[22:15] <Phusion> well the >'s didn't work for me.
[22:15] <ActySofts> ">"'s pm the user
[22:15] <rhalff> Phusion: ah
[22:15] <mikebot> ActySofts: Perfect, thanks!
[22:15] <ActySofts> mikebot: no problem
[22:15] <brobostigon> rhalff: he different platforms do have differences, but in my experinece they are fairly the same.
[22:16] <dORSY> http://www.best-hollywood.hu/try/pingvin.htm
[22:16] <Flare183> !spam > dORSY
[22:16] <ricanelite757> does Ubuntu 7.10 Gusty have Bittorrent?
[22:16] <dORSY> sorry

[22:17] <pike_> ricanelite757: there are several torrent apps available many many
[22:17] <ActySofts> yes, though the client is kinda old, I recommend azureus or beluge
[22:17] <brobostigon> ricanelite757: it does, yes
[22:17] <savvis00> ricanelite757 yeah, you have bittorrent, deluge-torrent, azureus, etc.
[22:17] <ActySofts> *deluge
[22:17] <dominik> savvis00: still the same
[22:17] <Cpudan80> ricanelite757: Yes it does - but the built in client isnt great

[22:18] <ActySofts> night
[22:18] <kafar> is enybody there :P
[22:18] <Phusion> maybe it was gtorrent
[22:18] <ActySofts> we need a !bye
[22:18] <Phusion> yeah, gtorrent, its a gnome torrent client
[22:18] <filo86> web pages load very slowly (better: slowly as hell)
[22:18] <Linuxrookie> ricanelite757:Limewire has a linux version available
[22:19] <savvis00> dominik hm.. did you just install ubuntu? have you updated it yet?
[22:19] <Phusion> my eyelid is twitching
[22:19] <dominik> savvis00: fresh update and few restarts
[22:19] <bugmanx2000> i'm running ubuntu 6.06 and having a bit of trouble getting sound to work.  i highly suspect flash on firefox is using the sound device but i cannot close firefox because other users are on the machine.  is there a way i find out what processes are using the sound device?
[22:19] <ActySofts> filo86: browser, ubuntu version ?
[22:19] <filo86> that is my general linux problem
[22:19] <filo86> firefox ubuntu f-f
[22:20] <pike_> !ipv6 | filo86
[22:20] <ubotu> filo86: To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[22:20] <pike_> filo86: also cat /etc/resolv.conf and make sure only 1 nameserver is present
[22:20] <ConstyXIV> what is vbetool and why is it using half my CPU?
[22:20] <Phusion> bugmanx2000: you can kill the firefox process
[22:20] <kafar> are here pepole from poland

[22:20] <Phusion> ConstyXIV: it seems its a video app of some kind
[22:20] <dominik> yes kafar
[22:20] <dominik> ;p
[22:20] <savvis00> dominik you could report a bug at http://bugs.ubuntu.com - it could help clear out the problem, just explain what were you doing the last time when you first saw this happening
[22:21] <Phusion> ConstyXIV: vbetool uses lrmi in order to run code from the video BIOS. Currently, it is able to alter DPMS states, save/restore video card state and attempt to initialize the video card from scratch.
[22:21] <kafar> wow
[22:21] <kafar> :P
[22:21] <pike_> Linuxrookie: kill the window manager :)

[22:21] <dominik> kafar: Tczew
[22:21] <Phusion> ConstyXIV: does it eat up your CPU on every boot?
[22:21] <savvis00> dominik and add it in the sessions, maybe it will help you temporarily :)
[22:21] <kafar> hehe
[22:21] <dominik> kafar: a Ty?
[22:21] <Linuxrookie> pike_: ? Kill the window manager? won't that shutdown the system?
[22:21] <Phusion> ConstyXIV: also, google = good.
