[06:38] <Falstius> how do you set up a swap file (not a swap partition)?
[06:39] <preaction> kkrusty, you can find "business-card CD" network installers, those CDs that are cut in the shape of credit-cards, or the mini-cd thingys
[06:39] <Gwildor> FallenHitokiri, swapon /dev/hd**
[06:39] <Gwildor> FallenHitokiri, oops
[06:39] <Gwildor> Falstius, nvm
[06:39] <chrmm> Unimatrix9, I know, its pretty wierd
[06:39] <Unimatrix9> chrmm, its very strange...
[06:39] <Unimatrix9> scary!
[06:39] <jadacyrus> Hi all...Edgy/Nvidia 9625: Everytime I reboot after installing the 9625 Drivers, I get an API Kernel Mismatch error. Says the kernel module is like 7184 but the driver is 9625..How do I fix this?
[06:40] <barnetod> tabias
[06:40] <kkrusty> preaction: i have no such thing :)

[06:40] <preaction> kkrusty, i'm just saying, for example
[06:40] <Unimatrix9> chrmm, but okey, now do this to see what disks are  detected at boot in console type dmesg
[06:40] <chrmm> Unimatrix9: well, I used the alternate installation CD for drapper....
[06:41] <Unimatrix9> chrmm, you get an long list, in there you should pay attention to hda, and sda ...
[06:41] <kkrusty> preaction: ow well ubuntu will have to wait for tomorrow. thanks for the help though.
[06:41] <Tjoels> netpython: oooooooooooooh, it was because it was a broken link!!
[06:41] <Unimatrix9> chrmm, some will be the cdrom/dvd drives, and others should show your harddrive...
[06:41] <preaction> kkrusty, no problem. enjoy
[06:41] <netpython> Tjoelsssssssssssssssssssssss :-)
[06:42] <Unimatrix9> chrmm, some will be the cdrom/dvd drives, and others should should be the harddrive
[06:42] <chrmm> Unimatrix9, I get a loooong error list
[06:42] <Tjoels> netpython, sorry to have bothered....
[06:43] <netpython> Tjoels, anytime no prob
[06:43] <salim> connect irc.quakenet.org
[06:43] <Unimatrix9> chrmm, it looks bad, do you have raid or something?
[06:43] <Tjoels> netpython, thanks ;))
[06:43] <Blacken> Well, I borked it and overwrote my MBR with a Windows one (oops). I can't seem to puzzle out grub-install, though.
[06:44] <Blacken> Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm getting "not a block device" errors, which are a bit weird...
[06:44] <Unimatrix9> chrmm, how many hard disks does you pc have ?
[06:45] <chrmm> Unimatrix9: I DCed
[06:45] <Unimatrix9> chrmm, how many hard disk does your pc have?
[06:45] <chrmm> Unimatrix9: ooh only 1, its a laptop
[06:45] <KillerDemon> mine has 7 :D
[06:45] <KillerDemon> 1234 GB
[06:45] <KTurbo> hello
[06:46] <KTurbo> Could someone give me a hand here.
[06:46] <KillerDemon> *1235
[06:46] <Unimatrix9> chrmm,  what type?
[06:46] <chrmm> Unimatrix9: It was Ntfs on windows
[06:46] <KTurbo> I just bought a pc with ubuntu on it. And I wanna know how to make a new user, since I can't login. I have the root + password.
[06:46] <Unimatrix9> chrmm,  what type , as in brand ..dell/etc?
[06:47] <KTurbo> I tried to "adduser" but that doesn't work when I try to login
[06:47] <chrmm> Unimatrix9: FSC Amilo m1437g
[06:47] <KTurbo> Compac? Coould that be it.
[06:47] <georgeb> Blacken: what command do you run when you get not a block device ?
[06:47] <Lynoure> KTurbo: sudo adduser ?
[06:47] <KillerDemon> compaq is dead allready
[06:47] <KTurbo> yes, tried that
[06:47] <shwag> is it safe to install the 'rails' package? WIll that messup my rubygems ?
[06:47] <jstarcher> what's the command to edit user id's?
[06:48] <KTurbo> man usermod
[06:48] <KTurbo> I think
[06:48] <SupremacyGnu> Hello! Does aoss work with Teamspeak to use both Teamspeak and then play games and hear the sound from both of them? I can't get it to work... or do I really need two soundcards? Thanks
[06:48] <barnetod> are there good statistics programs for ubuntu?
[06:48] <Blacken> georgeb: Uh, let's go with "any". I've tried sd0, sda, sda3...
[06:48] <KTurbo> god damn, I hate command-line inviorment.
[06:48] <nonnis> Ive got serious issues with grub. Error18 on boot after fresh ubuntu install and now i can t use XP nor Ubuntu. Anyone can help me?
[06:48] <chrmm> How do I remove the "Shift+Backspace"shortcut btw?? I log out all the time
[06:48] <dvheumen> guys, I've got a very strange problem which may be hardware related, but I'd like some help from someone to point me to the correct log files...
[06:49] <georgeb> Blacken: hmm.. you are in livecd ?
[06:49] <Lynoure> KTurbo: does not work how? if it complains about the password you were given, it might be best to ask the people who sold it to you... or boot with a cd and go change it :)
[06:49] <_azrael> !ask > dvheumen
[06:49] <Blacken> georgeb: Right; I've chrooted into my box.
[06:49] <KTurbo> Well.
[06:49] <Blacken> er, partition...sorry, just woke up
[06:49] <KTurbo> He gave me his login and pass but it didn't work
[06:49] <KTurbo> and I do not have a cd here.
[06:49] <barnetod> nonnis hold on :)
[06:49] <Lynoure> KTurbo: call him?
[06:49] <barnetod> i may have something for you
[06:50] <georgeb> Blacken: you have a sata hard drive or ide ?
[06:50] <fdoving> chrmm: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf Search for and find 'ServerLayout' In that section, add: Option "DontZap" "true"
[06:50] <KTurbo> I send him some mess. and he told me his password and login but I just can't login.
[06:50] <KTurbo> sent*
[06:50] <georgeb> Blacken: if sata, then grub-install --root-directory=/boot/ /dev/sda should work
[06:50] <Blacken> georgeb: SATA, hence the "sd". =)
[06:50] <Unimatrix9> chrmm, you will need to do an reading on your laptop and support of linux on it, you have got an sata drive in this version, and might have to go for an long search for solutions..
[06:50] <barnetod> 18 : Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS. This error is returned when a read is attempted at a linear block address beyond the end of the BIOS translated area. This generally happens if your disk is larger than the BIOS can handle (512MB for (E)IDE disks on older machines or larger than 8GB in general).
[06:50] <nonnis> barnetod: oh thanks you so much, I only found 1 post about it in the forums i have no idea what it is
[06:51] <Lynoure> KTurbo: you are a paying customer to him. But you can also choose the Recovery mode from the grup menu and change the password through that
[06:51] <barnetod> nonnis  Try an update for your BIOS and/or move your boot partition to the front (or at least into the appropriate range).
[06:51] <KTurbo> I have the root pass atleast, thing is I'm not really good at linux.
[06:51] <Blacken> georgeb: Nope, and I just figured out why. There's no /dev when you're in a chroot.
[06:51] <KTurbo> No, I am not.
[06:51] <chrmm> Unimatrix9: Thanks for the try then! :)
[06:51] <dvheumen> I've got an Ubuntu 6.06 linux PC ... it's running now for a few weeks and I haven't noticed any strange behaviour, except... Sometimes when I come home from school, the PC is on but all LEDs (Power + HDD) are off and I doesn't repond to anything.
[06:51] <chrmm> fdoving: Tnx! :)
[06:51] <nonnis> barnetod but I have winXP on the first partition
[06:51] <georgeb> Blacken: depends on how you mount the partitions;
[06:51] <dvheumen> The problem is that this occured 3 times in the 2 or 3 weeks I'm running Ubuntu now
[06:51] <Tompu> dvheumen: hibernation?
[06:51] <KTurbo> I can make a user I just don't know what I am doing while I'm doing it. :P
[06:52] <barnetod> you did a fresh install right?
[06:52] <dvheumen> Tompu:  how can i check that?
[06:52] <KTurbo> password and such
[06:52] <barnetod> did you install windows xp first?
[06:52] <dvheumen> I didn't initialize hibernation myself
[06:52] <georgeb> Blacken: I think you could also install grub without chroot
[06:52] <Tompu> dvheumen: hibernate the system (and leave it for ten minutes or so) and then come back and see if it's how you described
[06:52] <TC`> is there a program like "nassi" to talk, send files ect.. in LAN?
[06:52] <yohskar> why bash environment variables are diferent depending i'm in a text console or desktop xterm
[06:52] <nonnis> barnetod: Yes ubuntu, XP on the first partition worked without problem before ubuntu install
[06:52] <yohskar> ?
[06:52] <TC`> for ubuntu and for win?
[06:52] <Unimatrix9> chrmm,  http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=363325
[06:52] <dvheumen> Tompu:  it occurs most times after at least 2 days
[06:52] <Unimatrix9> for the first reading...
[06:53] <ifireball> yohskar: because a lot more scripts get to run and setup your environment when you login to a graphical desktop
[06:53] <Tompu> dvheumen: well, if you're sure it isnt hibernation, try looking through your log files to see if you can see what caused it
[06:53] <Unimatrix9> chrmm,  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=79127
[06:53] <Lynoure> KTurbo: man adduser , then just add one for yourself and add it to /etc/sudoers mimicing the limes already there.
[06:53] <KTurbo> I just wanna get into the graphical user interface then I'm alright, I could simply just manager the users there
[06:54] <dvheumen> Tompu: yeah I figured that the log files should show me something, but I can't find anything... what log file should I look at?
[06:54] <KTurbo> well, how do I change password?
[06:54] <kkrusty> preaction: sorry but this was too hard to resist. I have got some old ubuntu 4.10 and 5.04 cds (live and installer) with me
[06:54] <Unimatrix9> chrmm,  sorry i could not be of more help...you can try asking here again.,, good luck :)
[06:54] <Falstius> KTurbo: passwd <username>
[06:54] <kkrusty> preaction: now what can i do?
[06:54] <yohskar> oh, and which file i should modify to set an environment variable for mine desktop xterm?
[06:54] <Lynoure> KTurbo: a well installed ubuntu shoul put you into graphical environment by default...
[06:55] <Skyrail> Agrajag: hey are you there?
[06:55] <KTurbo> yeah, I just need a login to get into it. :P
[06:55] <Agrajag> Skyrail: no
[06:55] <KTurbo> so I type: sudo useradd [NAME] /etc/sudoers?
[06:55] <Skyrail> Agrajag: ok :D wait a minute sorry I think I may have foiund an answer
[06:55] <Falstius> yohskar: ~/.bashrc should set environment variables for both xterm and the console (assuming you haven't changed your shell to something else)
[06:55] <ifireball> is there a nich gui (not swat) to do smbpasswd, its a shame the way Sys->admin->Share doesn't "just work" because they forgot about this...
[06:55] <Agrajag> Skyrail: ok
[06:55] <magickal1> Does anyone have any information on the possible cause or even better the solution to the random system lockups that seem to be plaguing quite a few people in the edgy upgrade?
[06:55] <SupremacyGnu> Hello! Does aoss work with Teamspeak to use both Teamspeak and then play games and hear the sound from both of them? I can't get it to work... or do I really need two soundcards? Thanks
[06:55] <nonnis> barnetod: I had XP and from there I fixed a partition for ubuntu (partition magic). And after installation of ubuntu I cant use either window nor ubuntu.
[06:55] <Tompu> dvheumen: /var/log/messages and /var/log/dmesg.0 if it's there
[06:55] <preaction> kkrusty, you can install one of them, and once it's installed you can try to do an apt-get dist-upgrade (but i wouldn't recommend it)
[06:56] <Skyrail> Agrajag: actually maybe not, do you use flash 9?
[06:56] <yohskar> falstius, i will tried
[06:56] <preaction> kkrusty, but it would be good practice, AND you'd get a taste of ubuntu (with Edgy being the main course when you buy a burnable CD)
[06:56] <dvheumen> Tompu: k, was looking at debug and debug.0 at the moment, but they don't show anything useful AFAICT
[06:56] <alecjw> is there any bulk file ranmeer for gnome?
[06:56] <Lynoure> KTurbo: if you can do sudo, you should already be able to log in x with that very password you use with sudo
[06:56] <alecjw> *renamer
[06:56] <kkrusty> preaction: so i cant update from the cd image that i downloaded?
[06:56] <Agrajag> Skyrail: yes
[06:56] <ifireball> alecjw: the command-line :P
[06:56] <tsoler> hey guys
[06:57] <magickal1> alecjw,  thats something you would do in a bash script using sed/awk
[06:57] <Skyrail> Agrajag: do you have any audio problems?
[06:57] <Agrajag> Skyrail: nope
[06:57] <tsoler> how do i get to this folder ~/.gnome2/deskbar-applet/GoogleSearch.wsdl
[06:57] <tsoler> :(
[06:57] <preaction> kkrusty, yes, you can, i just wouldn't recommend it
[06:57] <KTurbo> I don't know what I use with sudo? I just use the root and password. You know I have no idea what I'm doing really.
[06:57] <KTurbo> If I try to login to X with root it says it can
[06:57] <KTurbo> can't
[06:57] <Dimensions> Hiya ... i have just installed ubuntu and then installed xp as dual boot ... but i dont get any grup or select option for ubuntu ... instead it directly goes to xp ... what to do ?
[06:57] <Lynoure> tsoler: cd ~/.gnome2/deskbar-applet/ I bet the rest of it is a file not a folder
[06:57] <alecjw> ifireball and magickal1: i hav about 100 files to renam, i want to call them photo 001, photo 002, photo 003 etc.
[06:58] <preaction> kkrusty, i believe it's apt-get dist-upgrade. or there are instructions for pointing your apt repositories to Edgy
[06:58] <dvheumen> Tompu: I have found a curious reference in 'messages'. It says: 'syslogd 1.4.1#17ubuntu7: restart.'
[06:58] <Unimatrix9> Skyrail do you use alsa as sound system?
[06:58] <Skyrail> Agrajag: hmm ok, its just that when I open something that requires flash its ok for about 30 seconds or so and then the audio just crashes and repeats the same little bit over and over again...
[06:58] <Unimatrix9> flash depends on that...
[06:58] <kkrusty> preaction: and what are the reasons for not recommending it?
[06:58] <ifireball> alecjw: and how are they called now?
[06:58] <preaction> kkrusty, because it might not work right the first time, and then you're left trying to fix a mess
[06:58] <Skyrail> er...I don't know, I'm pretty much new with linux so you might have to explain a bit further
[06:58] <magickal1> alecjw, SOrry mate Im not going to write a script for you   but there are many out here   google for it  you will be pleased
[06:58] <tsoler> Lynoure : what is thi sign for ~  ???
[06:59] <KTurbo> so I type: sudo useradd [NAME] /etc/sudoers?  <<----------- is that right?
[06:59] <Agrajag> Skyrail: don't know what to tell you, flash is still beta, could be a bug in that, or your sound drivers
[06:59] <Tompu> dvheumen: that's the log daemon starting
[06:59] <KTurbo> Then I typ passwd <username>
[06:59] <georgeb> Blacken: did it work ?
[06:59] <alecjw> ifireball: they are called DSCF0563, DSCF0564 etc. i'm sure there's a graphical way of doing this
[06:59] <Tompu> KTurbo: that's wrong.
[06:59] <xordali> why i can't start kde (xserver) http://paste.debian.net/16212
[06:59] <KTurbo> yeah?
[07:00] <Lynoure> KTurbo: No, useradd [NAME]  if you are in as a root is enough
[07:00] <Skyrail> Agrajag: hmm, ok thats the problem, its still in beta...well I'll have to wait until it drops out of beta, any idea how long that will be?
[07:00] <Lynoure> tsoler: that's called tilde
[07:00] <KTurbo> good.
[07:00] <dvheumen> Tompu: k, do you know anything about '-- MARK --' ? because I have never seen that? It repeats every 20 minutes
[07:00] <ifireball> alecjw: nope, GUIs are pretty much useless in this cases of power-use, you can't design a GUI strong enough
[07:00] <Lynoure> tsoler: it marks the home of the current user
[07:00] <tsoler> can i find this folder manually not but changing dir please?
[07:00] <ifireball> alecjw: so basically you want to remove the "DSCF" ?
[07:00] <Lynoure> tsoler: so probably /home/tsoler/.gnome and so on
[07:00] <Tompu> dvheumen: I'm not sure what its purpose is. it's normal though
[07:01] <Blacken> georgeb: Yeah, worked fine, thanks.
[07:01] <boggle> dvheumen: it's there so you know that logging is still working
[07:01] <Tompu> dvheumen: timestamp perhaps
[07:01] <KTurbo> I'll try that now, bbl
[07:01] <georgeb> alecjw: for images you can use gwenview; it has a batch rename function and I think it does exactly what you want; install gwenvie and in Plugins -> Batch Processing -> Rename images
[07:01] <finalbeta> Is it possible to have system wide equalization?
[07:01] <alecjw> ifireball: yes, but i ant to replace it with somethig like Photo  instead and make the numbers start from 0
[07:01] <Agrajag> Skyrail: no clue, don't know if that's where your problem lies either. Anyway, meeting time.
[07:01] <tsoler> so  ~/.gnome2/deskbar-applet/GoogleSearch.wsdl  is for home/tsoler/.gnome2/deskbar-applet/GoogleSearch.wsdl ???
[07:01] <kkrusty> preaction: i wonder if theres something i could do with the live cds then
[07:02] <Lynoure> tsoler: almost, for /home/tsoler/.gnome2/deskbar-applet/GoogleSearch.wsdl  if your user is tsoler
[07:02] <Dimensions>  Hiya ... i have just installed ubuntu and then installed xp as dual boot ... but i dont get any grup or select option for ubuntu ... instead it directly goes to xp ... what to do ?
[07:02] <Lynoure> tsoler: the beginning / is very important
[07:02] <yohskar> Ifirebal, Falstius, many thanks, i've modified .bash_profile but didn't work, modifying .bashrc i get my environment variable
[07:02] <Skyrail> Agrajag: er ok
[07:02] <dvheumen> Tompu: k, the only other thing I see in the log is: 'Nov  6 17:51:24 pegasus kernel: [17446627.716000]  skge eth1: Link is down.' and the next message about 'link up' ... but that's normal because I've got a crosslink connection to my other PC... Is Linux maybe reacting to this down-up behaviour?
[07:02] <ifireball> alecjw: yeah impossible with a GUI, and rateh coplex with a script, I suppse I can one-line it though, gimme a moment (I'm too nice...)
[07:02] <Gwildor> Dimensions, you will need to re-isntall grub.....always install windows THEN linux...
[07:02] <Dimensions> Gwildor:  how do i reinstall grub ?
[07:03] <Gwildor> Dimensions, i recommend, jstu re-isntall ubuntu
[07:03] <Tompu> dvheumen: i dont think that's the source of your problem
[07:03] <alecjw> ifireball: i think its soreted noww. georgeb's pointed me in the right driection
[07:03] <alecjw> thanks georgeb
[07:03] <tsoler> lynoure: how comes that i cannot find this folder in my home directory??
[07:03] <Tompu> dvheumen: next time it happens,
[07:03] <Daro> !shockwave
[07:03] <ubotu> Shockwave is currently only available for Windows. To run it under !Wine, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Shockwave
[07:03] <Tompu> dvheumen: look at the end of each log
[07:03] <Dimensions> Gwildor:  i remember doing same thing once before when my windows got crashed i installed it again and then i had done something in there but dont really remember ...
[07:03] <tsoler> .gnome2 doesnot apears
[07:04] <Lynoure> tsoler: where did you get that location anyway?
[07:04] <Tompu> dvheumen: I can't really suggest anything else unless you have more information
[07:04] <Daro> !explorer
[07:04] <Gwildor> Dimensions, 1 sec
[07:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about explorer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:04] <ifireball> alecjw: you're luckey, someone bothered making a GUI for exactly what you want...
[07:04] <Gwildor> Dimensions, http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Invoking-grub-install.html
[07:04] <tsoler> im trying to set up the dekbar to do a google live search

[07:05] <dannis_> GOOD MORNING
[07:05] <KTurbo> passwd just changes the root password, but how do you change a specific user's password?
[07:05] <Lynoure> tsoler: I mean I cannot promise a random search result says how things are on your computer
[07:05] <pyranha> I would like to create a local ubuntu mirror for doing kickstart installs on a private network, I only want to mirror i386 packages....doe sanyone know the correct syntax for the line that goes in /etc/apt/mirrors.list or know where there is documentation about it?

[07:06] <KTurbo> so I type: sudo passwd username... and then?
[07:06] <ompaul> KTurbo, do the password change for that user
[07:06] <Tompu> tsoler, are you sure deskbar supports live google search? i see a live yahoo plugin
[07:06] <Skyrail> Anyone know where there is a large range of linux fonts I can download?
[07:06] <KTurbo> ok, so it asks me for it.
[07:06] <KTurbo> thanks I'll try that
[07:06] <dvheumen> Tompu:  I understand, I'm looking at dmesg at the moment but it doesn't look like it offers any useful information either
[07:07] <Lynoure> tsoler: well, I do not even know what page you are looking at...
[07:07] <tsoler> its like the suggestions options on firefox
[07:07] <dannis_> #UBUNTU-ES
[07:07] <Tompu> dvheumen: dmesg only shows information relevant to this boot
[07:07] <phenex> upgrade from dapper to edgy - no sound. i hear my mic, but can't play music or record... what's the problem?
[07:07] <ifireball> Skyrail: linux can use truetype fonts, so I guess you could use any windows fonts website

[07:07] <tsoler> deskbar is an option for ubuntus panel
[07:07] <dannis_> o.k.
[07:08] <Skyrail> ifireball: ok I'll look into it :) its just that some of the links from the wiki aren't loading :(
[07:08] <tsoler> it adds different searcing options
[07:08] <ompaul> KTurbo, it asks for your password first then you give the new one for the user in question
[07:08] <dvheumen> Tompu: I do have a distributed.net client running on this pc... could it be possible that linux reboots because of a process that's continuously eating away cpu power?
[07:08] <tsoler> it does a google search, but if you want suggestion you need to add this file to the folder that i cannot find
[07:09] <Dimensions> Thanks Gwildor
[07:09] <jstarcher> argh, can someone help me with mount permissions please?
[07:09] <Gwildor> Dimensions, NP
[07:09] <Tompu> dvheumen: userspace apps shouldnt be able to do that :)
[07:09] <vostorga> mmm there is more people here than #debian
[07:09] <tsoler> lynoyre : try add to panel>deskbar
[07:09] <Greyscale> Question: Can I use a Debian netinstaller to install ubuntu from a repo?
[07:10] <Gwildor> Greyscale, its possible, sure.....not sure how well it would work, though
[07:10] <dvheumen> Tompu: I was actually referring to something like selinux checking for this sort of behaviour...
[07:10] <Greyscale> hmm
[07:10] <jstarcher> I try $ sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/flash -o gpid=1000 and it mounts fine but I still can't write to it unless I'm root
[07:10] <jstarcher> why?
[07:10] <Greyscale> we need a netinstaller CD
[07:10] <KTurbo> ok great :D
[07:10] <KTurbo> Now
[07:10] <KTurbo> How do I make a home catalog?
[07:10] <ifireball> Skyrail: here is a tip that seems to be not well documented, and not dumbed down in Ubunto: to install fonts go into "fonts:" in nautilus and drag the ttf files in there
[07:10] <Lynoure> tsoler: Sorry, I'm on kubuntu
[07:11] <barnetod> dude my college sucks
[07:11] <tsoler> its an all in one action bar
[07:11] <Tinned_Tuna> heya
[07:12] <tsoler> runs terminal , and aplies searces to folders files and the internet through predifined search engines
[07:12] <Tompu> tsoler, did you install a google live search plugin for deskbar?
[07:12] <jstarcher> I try $ sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/flash -o gpid=1000 and it mounts fine but I still can't write to it unless I'm root
[07:12] <Tinned_Tuna> what's the likley hood of getting M$ Orofice 2K3 Basic Edition running under Wine?
[07:12] <tsoler> im trying
[07:12] <tsoler> cant find the proper folder
[07:12] <KTurbo> How do I make a home catalog? sry ;)
[07:12] <Lynoure> KTurbo: What's a home catalog? Do you mean something related to real estate or home directory?
[07:12] <haakonn> i really can't get flash to work in edgy. it worked in dapper, but after the upgrade, it just crashes firefox/mozilla. how exactly do i get flash to work? any hints?
[07:12] <barnetod> why run it if you have open office tinned tuna?
[07:12] <plod> whats the name of the partitioner that used to be in the non gui install
[07:12] <Tompu> tsoler: give me a link to the plugin, i'll sort you out ;)
[07:12] <Tinned_Tuna> tsoler: you talking about Wine?
[07:12] <KTurbo> home directory
[07:12] <KTurbo> same thing. ;)
[07:12] <Tompu> Tinned_Tuna: no :)
[07:12] <oangefly> can anyone help setting up groups in ubuntu server....???....
[07:13] <Tinned_Tuna> damn :/
[07:13] <Tinned_Tuna> oangefly: /etc/groups ?
[07:13] <NET||abuse> hey does anyone know what ports i need to forward to connect to my exchange server with putty??
[07:13] <phenex> upgrade from dapper to edgy - no sound. i hear my mic, but can't play music or record... any idea what can cause this?
[07:13] <FlyingSquirrel32>  I did an apt-get upgrade and now sendmail won't start. It just hangs. Googling the prob. didn't help. Any help?
[07:13] <bthibault> anybody else having problems with FF 2.0 and Java?
[07:13] <NET||abuse> i have a linux box with ssh mapped to it inside my network, i'm stuck out on site and urgently need my email...
[07:13] <haakonn> java works, but flash won't
[07:13] <jstarcher> I try $ sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/flash -o gpid=1000 and it mounts fine but I still can't write to it unless I'm root
[07:13] <jstarcher> I try $ sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/flash -o gpid=1000 and it mounts fine but I still can't write to it unless I'm root
[07:13] <NET||abuse> really really stuck here...
[07:13] <Tinned_Tuna> NET||abuse: I believe the ssh flag is -D<port no>
[07:13] <jstarcher> no one?
[07:13] <Skorgu|Work> hey, I'm trying to install from the amd64 alternate cd and the boot hangs at libata initialization, anyone seen this?
[07:13] <bthibault> i got flash working, but no java
[07:14] <Tinned_Tuna> then config ur mail client to use that port
[07:14] <tsoler> tompu:  go to google acounts get the developers kit and a a google api key
[07:14] <NET||abuse> Tinned_Tuna: yeh, i need to figure out what port no to use
[07:14] <Tinned_Tuna> localhost:<portno>
[07:14] <Tinned_Tuna> anything
[07:14] <Tompu> tsoler: i have an api key
[07:14] <Tinned_Tuna> I tunnel web traffic over 7070
[07:14] <poopybutt> how do i figure out what version of java i have?
[07:14] <tsoler> for soap search?
[07:14] <KTurbo> cause it says it can't find my user's home directory
[07:14] <_-benz-_> poopybutt: java -version
[07:14] <NET||abuse> Tinned_Tuna: yeh, i know i can forward any port , but i don't know what ports i need to forward to allow my outlook 2003 to connect to the remote exchange server
[07:15] <Lynoure> KTurbo: it's easiest done by adduser, when making the user, that's why I recommended reading  man adduser  first, but you can just use mkdir /home/yourusername and then copy stuff from skel to there and change the ownership
[07:15] <Tinned_Tuna> NET||abuse: it should be any, you just need to force the client to use that port on local host as a proxy
[07:15] <NET||abuse> Tinned_Tuna: problem here is that OWA is currently broken on the exchange server
[07:15] <Tompu> tsoler: just give me a link to the plugin you're trying to install so i can see where it needs to go
[07:15] <tsoler> tompu: ok
[07:15] <DShepherd> why does the firefox icon in the gnome's main menu differ from the one in application main menu?
[07:15] <ubuntu_newb> just installed Ubuntu 6.10
[07:15] <KTurbo> k, I'll try that or make a new user. :P
[07:15] <NET||abuse> Tinned_Tuna: yes yes,, i know.. but i honestly don't know what port i need to output at the other end.
[07:15] <[HSNR] AR> hello, i have a problem while i was installing openswan
[07:15] <[HSNR] AR> ipsec_setup: FATAL: Error insertib padlock (/libmodules/2.6.17-10-generic/kernel/drivers/crypto/padlock.ko): No such device
[07:15] <[HSNR] AR> anyone have a hint ? it is possible to use ipsec without padlock, i think i don't need it
[07:15] <ubuntu_newb> Definitely seems to run better than 6.06
[07:16] <cedd> Hi! i downloaded ubuntu 6.10 alternate iso... to install on my amd64 with raid... but when the installation gets to the partitioning step, i dont have the option to create raid, so i was woundering hoe to c reate it
[07:16] <magickal1> Does anyone have any information on the possible cause or even better the solution to the random system lockups that seem to be plaguing quite a few people in the edgy upgrade?
[07:16] <NET||abuse> Tinned_Tuna: i don't know what ports exchange server uses for exchange type connections... i'm totally pickled on this one
[07:16] <oangefly> can you show me step by step how to create 1 group with 1 user....i should have it from there....
[07:16] <DShepherd> why does the firefox icon in the gnome's main menu differ from the one in application's (firefox icon)....
[07:16] <KTurbo> bbl
[07:16] <ubuntu_newb> cedd: you will probably need raid drivers
[07:17] <ubuntu_newb> How can I see how much ram Ubuntu is currently using on my system?
[07:17] <Tompu> tsoler: are you looking at this: http://linuxhelp.blogspot.com/2006/02/deskbar-applet-integrating-google.html ?
[07:17] <tsoler> tompu : Now download the developers kit and extract the GoogleSearch.wsdl file from it.  Copy this file to ~/.gnome2/deskbar-applet/GoogleSearch.wsdl
[07:17] <cedd> well i know how to make the raid work from breezy, i had the option to create raid... but i dont have this option in edgy in the partitioning menu
[07:17] <tsoler> tompu : where is this folder?
[07:17] <lilgg> Hello I just installed ubuntu 6.10 on my ibook and I'm tryin to install software using the Add/Remove Applications wizard. But I get this message "bla bla" cannot be installed on your computer type(powerpc). Either the application requires special hardware features or the vendor decided to not support your computer type.. what should i do?
[07:17] <Lynoure> ubuntu_newb: type   free
[07:17] <Tinned_Tuna> NET||abuse: try to start a connection and run netstat?
[07:18] <Tompu> tsoler: ~ means your home directory. for example, /home/tsoler/
[07:18] <Tompu> tsoler: /home/tsoler/.gnome2/deskbar-applet/GoogleSearch.wsdl
[07:18] <Lynoure> Tompu: I told him all that already
[07:18] <ProActive> Hi all
[07:18] <Skorgu|Work> I'm trying to boot Edgy from the amd64 alternate iso and the boot hangs at libata version 1.20 loaded. The x86 desktop CD boots fine, but I need to setup RAID on this box. Anyone seen this behavior?
[07:18] <Tompu> Lynoure: I dont think he understood ;)
[07:18] <tsoler> i cannot not see .gnome2 folder
[07:19] <dvheumen> Tompu: the most curious thing I find is that log messages all stop after the 1000 Mbit crosslink connection comes up (which means my main PC has just booted into Windows) ... I've seen it in 2 different log files. And I do remember that the last time I encountered this problem, it also just occured when I started working on my PC. Any suggestions on how to get more information? (also when my Linux pc is frozen, the PCI (1 Gbit) LAN adapter
[07:19] <Tompu> tsoler: it's hidden
[07:19] <cedd> !ubotu raid
[07:19] <ubotu> Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[07:19] <ubuntu_newb> ouch...  Check this out...  Ubuntu is using all of my RAM
[07:19] <ubuntu_newb>              total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached

[07:19] <tsoler> how can i see it then?
[07:19] <ProActive> Skorgu|Work I have ubuntu 6.10 working with raid 5 from the CD server edition
[07:19] <Tinned_Tuna> ubuntu_newb it will appear to
[07:19] <tsoler> ok find it
[07:19] <Tompu> tsoler: are you using the console or the file browser (nautilus)?
[07:19] <coNP> ubuntu_newb: don't panic, most of it is cache
[07:19] <sonics> hi
[07:20] <Skorgu|Work> ProActive: I'll try that, thanks
[07:20] <coNP> it only means that it uses free memory to speed up things
[07:20] <Lynoure> tsoler: if you cannot see it with   ls -la /home/tsoler/.gnome2/deskbar-applet/GoogleSearch.wsdl it's prolly not there
[07:20] <ProActive> Skorgu|Work if you need any help, just ring
[07:20] <phaedrus44> hi all....
[07:20] <tsoler> nautilus
[07:20] <lilgg> Hello I just installed ubuntu 6.10 on my ibook and I'm tryin to install software using the Add/Remove Applications wizard. But I get this message "bla bla" cannot be installed on your computer type(powerpc). Either the application requires special hardware features or the vendor decided to not support your computer type.. what should i do?
[07:20] <Juan___> Hi
[07:20] <Skorgu|Work> ProActive: RAID isn't the problem, it's getting this @#$% Dell to boot properly :)
[07:20] <Tompu> tsoler: hit ctrl+L and tyoe the folder name
[07:20] <Skorgu|Work> Thanks though
[07:20] <sonics> hm, since I upgraded to edgy eft... ive got a lot of trouble, for exmaple the top bar of each xterms is gone (where there are the minimize buttons and stuff ) anyone know how to fix this??
[07:20] <Tompu> tsoler: if it doesnt work, you'll have to create it
[07:20] <ProActive> anyone have installed webmin on a ubuntu server 6.10?
[07:21] <ProActive> can't make webmin start
[07:21] <Tompu> tsoler: Lynoure will help you im sure, but i have to go :)
[07:21] <ProActive> it installed, but it don't start
[07:21] <phaedrus44> i have been using ubuntu for a year and a half now....debian for a few years before that....i was looking for some review of mepis and advantages of ubuntu over mepis
[07:21] <Juan___> I'm trying to mount a nfs filsesystem (ubuntu in the server, osx in the client) using: sudo mount -o -P <IP_ADDRESS>:/media/sda1 /Users/juanmedinpineiro/sda1/
[07:21] <Lynoure> Tompu: please don't go :)
[07:21] <KTurbo> OK that's it, I give up.
[07:21] <tsoler> ok guys i found it , it was just hidden:-[
[07:21] <Tompu> Lynoure: its 4:21am
[07:21] <ProActive> !ubotu webmin
[07:21] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[07:21] <KTurbo> I manage to login and all
[07:21] <phaedrus44> KTurbo: give up on what?
[07:21] <Lynoure> Tompu: sleep well :)
[07:21] <Juan___> But I'm unable to cd to it. It says I don't have permissions (even if I try as root)
[07:22] <Tompu> Lynoure: adopt a loud child
[07:22] <Juan___> Do you know if is there anything else to be done ?
[07:22] <KTurbo> But when I login it says it couldn't create home/username/gnome2
[07:22] <phenex> upgrade from dapper to edgy - no sound. i hear my mic, but can't play music or record... any idea what can cause this?
[07:22] <barnetod> anyone know a good statistics program for ubuntu?
[07:22] <sonics> hm, since I upgraded to edgy eft... ive got a lot of trouble, for exmaple the top bar of each xterms is gone (where there are the minimize buttons and stuff ) anyone know how to fix this?? pllzzz :(
[07:22] <KTurbo> and some more stuff
[07:22] <Tompu> Lynoure: maybe tsoler would be interested in having a finnish/english parent
[07:22] <lilgg> anyone?:/
[07:22] <Juan___> The message is "Permission denied"
[07:22] <KTurbo> after that it just returns to the login screen
 webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it. <- that is news for me, what should I use instead?
[07:22] <Lynoure> Tompu: I'm not really in the market to be a parent :)
[07:22] <mc__> ifireball: usermin
[07:23] <tsoler> Tompu : are u finnish?
[07:23] <KTurbo> "Your session lasted less than 10 seconds, if you didn't log off..."
[07:23] <netpython> mc__, isn't usermin a subset of webmin?
[07:23] <ifireball> mc__: but that is user-level setup, what if I want to manage an apache farm or a DNS server?
[07:23] <Juan___> hmm
[07:23] <Tompu> tsoler: no im not. but i am incredibly tired. good luck with your problem
[07:23] <Lynoure> KTurbo: Probably you did not do the chmod part of what I told you...
[07:24] <Lynoure> Tompu: sleep well :)
[07:24] <KTurbo> maybe I missed that part.
[07:24] <cedd> hi! im trying to setup raid on a fresh edgy installation, my problem is that i dont have the option to setup raid in the partitioning menu of edgy... did the raid configuring change from breezy to edgy?
[07:24] <ubuntu_newb> Thanks guys.  I was worred that this system wasn't good enough for Ubuntu 6.10.  It's a Pentium 4 1.4ghz with 256mb DDR.  Does that sound okay to run ubuntu 6.10?
[07:24] <KTurbo> Although, I don't recall reading it. :P
[07:24] <sharkett> hello
[07:24] <Lynoure> KTurbo: I'll repeat for you, this once
[07:24] <ifireball> ubuntu_newb: yes.
[07:24] <KTurbo> thank you
[07:25] <ProActive> cedd I'm using raid on a ubuntu 6.10 server
[07:25] <tsoler> Tompu?: have a nice sleep, i wiil fid out
[07:25] <ProActive> installed raid during ubuntu instalation
[07:25] <Lynoure> KTurbo: chown -r yourusername /home/yourusername
[07:25] <coNP> ubuntu_newb: sure
[07:25] <cedd> well can u help me out then
[07:25] <ProActive> is very easy even for me... i'm a newbie on linux
[07:25] <KTurbo> that's it?
[07:25] <eldon> Hi every 1
[07:25] <bthibault> I have sun-java5-plugin and the current JRE  but still can't get java working in FF 2.0
[07:25] <bthibault> am i missing something?
[07:26] <Lynoure> KTurbo: and even after it: chgrp -r yourusername /home/yourusername
[07:26] <Skorgu|Work> Anyone trying to do RAID, you should be aware that you need the server or alternate install CDs to do it easily.
[07:26] <eldon> does nebody know how to fix the lag with mplayer streaming quicktime movies in HD?
[07:26] <ifireball> bthibault: can you see java in about:plugins
[07:26] <cedd> i have the alternate cd
[07:26] <bthibault> ifireball: let me check
[07:26] <ifireball> eldon: buy a stronger machine :P
[07:26] <Lynoure> KTurbo: the first one changes the owner of your newly made home directory and stuff below it, the second changes the group
[07:27] <netpython> !dri
[07:27] <ubotu> dri is direct rendering infrastructure, a framework for allowing direct access to graphics hardware under the X Window System in a safe and efficient manner.
[07:27] <KTurbo> oh, ok. I see.
[07:27] <bthibault> ifireball: nope, i can't see java , only Flash
[07:27] <Gabby_Hayes> Howdy
[07:27] <KTurbo> change owner I guess. :P
[07:27] <roryy> Lynoure: the man pages say '-R', not '-r', fwiw
[07:27] <KTurbo> brb and I'll see
[07:27] <bthibault> when i got to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins though, the libjavaplugin.so is there
[07:27] <Lynoure> roryy: the man pages are more correct than me
[07:28] <ifireball> bthibault: your FF is the one that came with ubuntu or a one you've installed on your own?
[07:28] <barnetod> so why do people charge for some linux software and others don't
[07:28] <bthibault> one i've installed on my own
[07:28] <bthibault> ifireball: should i unstall it?
[07:28] <Juan___> hmm
[07:28] <Juan___> Anyone using NFS?
[07:28] <Lynoure> roryy: I sometimes get confused about upper/lower case and do not always check
[07:28] <coNP> Juan___: me
[07:28] <eldon> ifireball: i got a P4 3,00 Ghz with 512 MB of SDRAM and a 264 kB DSL connection
[07:28] <ifireball> bthibault: no, but you should link the plugin to where you've installed it
[07:28] <eldon> should be sufficient, no?
[07:29] <Juan___> coNP: do you know if you need to do something else than a sudo mount -o -P <IP_ADDRESS>:/media/sda1 /Users/juanmedinpineiro/sda1/ in the client ?
[07:29] <ifireball> eldon: apt-get install sense-of-humor
[07:29] <J-_> what flash plugin can I use for Opera?
[07:29] <coNP> Juan___: maybe give the type "-t nfs", but not sure; does it not work the way you try it?
[07:30] <Alphonso> Hi.. I just installed WINE using synaptic manager in Dapperdrake... now the I am wondering where in the name of god it (WINE) really is on my system ???
[07:30] <eldon> ifireball: sorry, but u did scare a newbie like me
[07:30] <tsoler> lynoure: do you have an idea where i should use this api key??
[07:30] <Lynoure> KTurbo: if you missed that thing, it's upper case R, not r
[07:30] <Juan___> coNP: No. It says 'Permission denied' when I try to cd to it.
[07:30] <coNP> Alphonso: you can check it by "which wine"
[07:30] <eldon> no really, neway of tweaking the streaming buffering in mplayer?
[07:30] <coNP> Juan___: what does "ls -l" say about this directory?
[07:30] <barnetod> alphonso which wine
[07:30] <barnetod> doh lol good call conp
[07:30] <ifireball> eldon: sorry, my bad for overrating you for using the word "lag" :P
[07:30] <Alphonso> U guys mean in terminal ?
[07:30] <coNP> barnetod: :)
[07:30] <barnetod> yes

[07:33] <coNP> barnetod: yep, sure I'm interested
[07:33] <Gabby_Hayes> barnetod  .. I thought M$ was publishing the book "Complete Idiot's Guide to Linux"  (which hade all the places that existed where you could buy M$ OS's  :-(
[07:33] <bthibault> ifireball: libjavaplugin.so is linked to /etc/alternatives/firefox-javaplugin.so
[07:33] <bthibault> is this correct
[07:33] <Lynoure> KTurbo: I'm glad to be of help. Soon going to sneak to watch more DVDs, though.
[07:33] <barnetod> no gabby not the version i have
[07:33] <tsoler> next thing is to put the key but dont know where
[07:33] <tsoler> haha
[07:34] <KTurbo> ok, but first
[07:34] <Juan___> coNP: Just added a NFS share using the system settings share. NFS options:: public
[07:34] <barnetod> whats best way to send to you conP?
[07:34] <KTurbo> How do I make a group?
[07:34] <dvheumen> Lynoure: Could you give me some pointers on how to investigate my problem? Tompu didn't have a clue, but I'm still stuck with this strange problem :-s. It's about a Ubuntu linux PC that freezes up without a trace of it in the logs...
[07:34] <barnetod> you want the torrent links?
[07:34] <cedd> any1 have the answer?
[07:34] <Juan___> coNP: Allowed hosts: * asynch, squash
[07:34] <glisse_> hi
[07:34] <Lynoure> dvheumen: lets see (doing lastlog)
[07:35] <ifireball> bthibault: its ok, "ls -l /etc/alternatives/firefox-javaplugin.so" to make sure its not a dead link, but I don't think it will be
[07:35] <roryy> KTurbo: if you're using gnome ('normal' ubuntu), try System -> Admin -> Users and Groups (valid in Ubuntu 6.06, not sure about 6.10)
[07:35] <coNP> Juan___: I see, it should work
[07:35] <glisse_> any easy way to boot with framebuffer desactived ? (no vesafb or any things like that just good old vga)
[07:35] <bthibault> ifireball: yes its there
[07:35] <coNP> Juan___: what does it write, when you try to cd in it?
[07:35] <KTurbo> roryy: I'm still in the terminal
[07:35] <Alphonso> Ok I found wine under usr/bin it says wine 4.5 kb executable..but it wont when I click ,double click or right click>open it.... :O(
[07:35] <roryy> KTurbo: ah
[07:35] <bthibault> ifireball: so its in my plugin dir. but firefox isn't accepting it apparently
[07:36] <dvheumen> Lynoure: what should I do with lastlog?
[07:36] <Juan___> coNP: bash: cd: sda1: Permission denied
[07:36] <Juan___> (as root)
[07:36] <Falstius> Alphonso: did you run winecfg?
[07:36] <roryy> KTurbo: in that case you can use the command 'addgroup'; try 'addgroup --help' or 'man addgroup' for more information
[07:36] <cedd> 4w8j55j8463w8j63988
[07:36] <ifireball> bthibault: its becasue FF2 is a custom install its probably looking for the plugins elsewhere, where did you install it?
[07:36] <KTurbo> what's the diffrence between man and the usuall
[07:36] <Juan___> I could try samba, but I'd like to know what isn't working
[07:37] <roryy> KTurbo: 'man addgroup' will show the manual page for the addgroup command
[07:37] <dvheumen> Lynoure: just running it doesn't produce any useful information
[07:37] <coNP> Juan___: what are the permissions on the directory (on the server machine?)
[07:37] <Lynoure> dvheumen: I was using it to see what you and Tompu talked about. He gave good pointers tou you
[07:37] <KTurbo> ok ok, I'll try that
[07:37] <KTurbo> oh wait
[07:37] <ifireball> bthibault: most howtos I've seen have you install FF2 somehere under /opt etc.
[07:37] <dvheumen> Lynoure: sorry, thought you meant a command... which actually exist and I didn't know :P
[07:37] <KTurbo> I tried "addgroup" but it said I only could use two names or something. :S
[07:37] <Alphonso> Falstius: nah.. OK I am now.. should I try Run interminal ,Display, or Run it ?
[07:37] <Lynoure> dvheumen: and I do not have that much time now, it's an interesting problem though
[07:37] <leofender_> hi
[07:38] <roryy> KTurbo: try 'addgroup --help' first
[07:38] <Falstius> Alphonso: when ever you are having problems, run things in the terminal so that you can see any errors.  So do it in the terminal.
[07:38] <leofender_> i need help please
[07:38] <Juan___> drwxrwx---
[07:38] <KTurbo> ok, I'll be back for more help later. ;)
[07:38] <dvheumen> Lynoure: I think it has something to do with the Gbit network adapter... is there some way to monitor such a thing?
[07:38] <bthibault> ifireball: yes its under opt
[07:38] <bthibault> ifireball: /opt
[07:38] <Juan___> coNP: drwxrwx---

[07:38] <burgermann> Hi. I run a web server with dapper the last few month and occasional reboots. However when I access it through ssh, it has suddenly begun to lag. So does the webserver and the users are complaining. There's no load on CPU and neither on the network. There's also plenty of space on the disk, so what could be wrong?
[07:38] <glisse_> leofender_, go ahead and shoot your question :)
[07:38] <barnetod> conP check your email im sending you an invite in a second
[07:39] <leofender_> how must i do for use partition magic on linux ?
[07:39] <bthibault> burgermann: .htaccess file possibly
[07:39] <ifireball> bthibault: something like /opt/firefox ? so you should probably add a link to /opt/firefox/plugins ...
[07:39] <coNP> barnetod: what kind of invite?
[07:39] <J-_> what java plugin can i use with Opera?
[07:39] <coNP> Juan___: I see, now I have no idea
[07:39] <barnetod> to a torrent site
[07:39] <coNP> barnetod: thanks
[07:39] <Lynoure> dvheumen: I really need to go now, but there are some trace (strace) commands you could look into if monitoring the logs do not help you...
[07:39] <J-_> JRE1.4?
[07:39] <Juan___> coNP: Well, I'll try Samba then. Thank you anyway.
[07:40] <dvheumen> Lynoure: tnx, will look :D
[07:40] <barnetod> if you haven't heard of oink yet be prepared
[07:40] <ifireball> burgermann: do you have some kind of traffic shaping setup?
[07:40] <leofender_> i need know how to use partition magic on linux
[07:40] <barnetod> your hard drive is going to explode
[07:40] <Alphonso> Falstius: thnx for the tip ...I ran it ..it seems it is having problems says fixme:midi:OSS_MidiInit Synthesizer supports MIDI in. Not yet supported.
[07:40] <pazemlsqdfmoj> when i try to crontab -e, i get: Error reading /home/myuser/.nano_history: Permission denied
[07:40] <Alphonso> err:advpack:create_tmp_ini_file Unable to create temp ini file
[07:40] <Alphonso> Failed to open the service control manager.

[07:40] <Alphonso> fixme:midi:OSS_MidiInit Synthesizer supports MIDI in. Not yet supported... but I see the configuration window just been opened
[07:40] <barnetod> just search ubuntu when you get logged in
[07:40] <LjL> !paste
[07:40] <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 (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[07:40] <barnetod> and a whole list of books comes up
[07:40] <tale-wkstn> I'm running dapper.  For some reason, rhythmbox locks up when I start it each time.  I've deleted my ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox directory already and it still occurs.  Rhythmbox use to work fine.
[07:40] <coNP> Juan___: altough this makes me unhappy, I hate unsolved problems
[07:40] <J-_> can i use jre 1.4 for Opera?
[07:40] <leofender_>  i need know how to use partition magic on linux
[07:40] <Tinned_Tuna> heya, does anyone know how to fix broken deps? I tried sudo apt-get install gcc
[07:40] <burgermann> ifireball: Not at all. I not very experienced with server administration
[07:40] <Tinned_Tuna> and got broken deps :/
[07:40] <J-_> can i use jre 1.4 for Opera?
[07:40] <Skorgu|Work> Anyone have success installing 6.10 amd64 to a Dell E521?
[07:40] <barnetod> leo why not use gparted?
[07:40] <glisse_> leofender_, it's more a partition magic question than a linux one
[07:41] <bthibault> ifireball: i owe you a beer
[07:41] <Skorgu|Work> Mine is hanging on libata init with both alternate and server install CDs
[07:41] <pazemlsqdfmoj> when i try to crontab -e, i get: Error reading /home/myuser/.nano_history: Permission denied
[07:41] <Juan___> coNP: Don't worry It must be something that I'm missing here
[07:41] <bthibault> ifireball: i was working out of /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
[07:41] <coNP> Juan___: sure :)
[07:41] <burgermann> bthibault: I guess it can't be the .htaccess file, since that doesn't explain the laggy ssh connection
[07:41] <barnetod> juan whats the problem?
[07:41] <Falstius> alphonso, it is normal to see lots of warnings and "this command not yet supported" stuff in wine.  Just configure it how you want it, and then you run a .exe in wine with "wine windows_program.exe"
[07:41] <ifireball> bthibault: and where in the world should you be, may I decide to collect?
[07:41] <glisse_> leofender_, if you can do what you want to do with partition magic maybe partition magic cannot do it
[07:41] <bthibault> ifireball: i'll be in Vegas next week for PubCon
[07:42] <bthibault> ifireball: other than that Columbus, OH
[07:42] <pazemlsqdfmoj> anyone?
[07:42] <ifireball> burgermann: sounds like something you should solve with the network experts at your ISP
[07:42] <Juan___> barnetod: I've shared a dir using NFS. I'm unable to access it from another computer.
[07:42] <leofender_> i need to make a new partition in ma hda for install windows on this little partition!
[07:42] <burgermann> I've tried doing a tcpdump to watch what kind of traffic is going on, but there doesn't seem to be any suspicous things
[07:42] <leofender_> how do that ?
[07:42] <barnetod> whats are you using to navigate
[07:42] <J-_> can i use jre 1.4 for Opera?
[07:42] <barnetod> i had a problem until i used konqueror
[07:42] <pazemlsqdfmoj> how to cron a php job in ubuntu?
[07:42] <burgermann> ifireball: the desktops using same connection doens't have any problems at all :/
[07:43] <Legendre> Hey all.. has a fix been made for the 'can't print PDFs' in Edgy?
[07:43] <tale-wkstn> pazemlsqdfmoj, install php-cli package
[07:43] <barnetod> im in windows right now so can't look at NFS
[07:43] <gh0st> ??? i have a very strange problem: my sound card SUDDENLY doesn't give sound anymore !!?
[07:43] <pazemlsqdfmoj> tale-wkstn: i would prefer to use cron
[07:43] <ifireball> bthibault: cheers
[07:43] <tale-wkstn> you have to install php-cli
[07:43] <leofender_> other similar partition magic soft but for linux ?
[07:43] <barnetod> legendre i can print them in edgy
[07:43] <tale-wkstn> then you can call it from cron
[07:43] <Juan___> barnetod: I'm unable even to cd to it.
[07:43] <barnetod> leofender use Gparted
[07:43] <pazemlsqdfmoj> tale-wkstn: what exactly does php-cli do?
[07:43] <Elko> gh0st: muted?
[07:43] <Legendre> barnetod - not here, and it's only PDF and PS
[07:43] <shwag> If I run ./script/server in this app I brought down from svn...it doesnt launch. But if I do it in my own project that I created with  rails myapp , then the server starts fine.
[07:44] <tale-wkstn> command line interpreter for php
[07:44] <gh0st> Elko: no :-)
[07:44] <barnetod> hmm juan let me look for a minute
[07:44] <leofender_> oh thanks barnetod
[07:44] <pazemlsqdfmoj> gh0st: ubuntu has been giving me a lot of crap with my soundblaster as well
[07:44] <barnetod> legendre is there a config file for printing?
[07:44] <tale-wkstn> allows you to run a php script like $ php somepage.php
[07:44] <J-_> can i use jre 1.4 for Opera?
[07:44] <Juan___> barnetod: ok
[07:44] <pazemlsqdfmoj> on installing nvidia driver, my sound went dead, and on installing a general update, my soundcard was just uninstalled :|
[07:44] <barnetod> im new and not sure what all configs there are
[07:44] <leofender_> bye. i will make that. will look ;)
[07:44] <barnetod> so mine may be different
[07:44] <KTurbo> well
[07:44] <KTurbo> damn
 so what did you do? i hav sb live too
[07:44] <Alphonso> Falstius: k I am trying to run PS7 ..I can see my window partition but dont see Ps7 folder under programe files.. Infact I see only one folder that too is empty
[07:45] <KTurbo> I couldn't make it, alot of things I didn't understand there
[07:45] <ifireball> burgermann: its way too freaky for me to try and deagnose over IRC... could be anything from bad cable to faulty NIC, to slow CPU
[07:45] <burgermann> ifireball: ok, thanks anyway ;)
[07:45] <pazemlsqdfmoj> gh0st: after the nvidia problem i followed http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Comprehensive_Sound_Problems_Solutions_Guide#Configuring_default_soundcards_.2F_stopping_soundcards_from_switching <--
[07:45] <chuckyp> hrm... ktorrent is a no go in edgy all kinds of problems
[07:45] <barnetod> juan is it a windows folder?
[07:45] <pazemlsqdfmoj> im not entirely sure wot steps i took to fix ita fter the update (a friend helped me)
[07:45] <chuckyp> what are you guys using out there for torrents?
[07:46] <barnetod> azureus in ubuntu
[07:46] <barnetod> and u torrent in windows
[07:46] <Juan___> No. It's a directory in a ubuntu box
[07:46] <Falstius> Alphonso: I don't know what PS7 is
[07:46] <Alphonso> Photoshop 7
[07:46] <dacableguy> utorrent also works well under wine
[07:46] <dacableguy> i used to use it
[07:46] <tale-wkstn> there is a new torrent client for gnome
[07:46] <dacableguy> deluge?
[07:46] <tale-wkstn> pretty slick
[07:46] <roryy> KTurbo: what group name do you want create?
[07:46] <tale-wkstn> yep
[07:46] <barnetod> utorrent is the only stable one for me
[07:46] <chuckyp> barnetod, isn't azureus borked atleast the one in the repos?
[07:46] <KTurbo> "Familj"
[07:46] <pazemlsqdfmoj> tale-wkstn: php-cli is installed, now what?
[07:46] <ProActive> Ok. I've decided! I want webmin!!!
[07:46] <dacableguy> ive looked at it...but i still like the options/customizability of utorrent and azureus
[07:47] <barnetod> chucky thats why im logged into windows
[07:47] <barnetod> and downloading something
[07:47] <barnetod> :)
[07:47] <ProActive> anyone have webmin with 6.10 working?
[07:47] <KTurbo> (That's the swedish word for family)
[07:47] <roryy> KTurbo: i recommend using lowercase.  Did you try 'sudo addgroup familj' ?
[07:47] <KTurbo> no, I did not.
[07:47] <Falstius> Alphonso: how are you trying to run it?  I would think you'd run: wine "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop\photoshop.exe"
[07:47] <tale-wkstn> pazemlsqdfmoj, call your web page from the command line.  i.e. $ php /path/to/my/php/page.php
[07:47] <chuckyp> dacableguy, what are you using?
[07:47] <KTurbo> I'll try that.
[07:47] <tale-wkstn> once you verify it works, put it in a cron script
[07:47] <chuckyp> dacableguy, for torrents that is.
[07:47] <phaedrus44> ProActive:   usermin?
[07:47] <pazemlsqdfmoj> tale-wkstn: this will not pop a browser screen right? :)
[07:47] <lullabud> what's the chat room where the edgy discussion happens?
[07:48] <Falstius> Alphonso: replacing photoshop.exe with whatever the photoshop executable is ... I don't have it.
[07:48] <tale-wkstn> no
[07:48] <KTurbo> brg
[07:48] <KTurbo> brb
[07:48] <dacableguy> what am i using for what?
[07:48] <dacableguy> ah
[07:48] <tale-wkstn> pazemlsqdfmoj, I use this in a cron job to update my jinzora install
[07:48] <dacableguy> i use azureus at the moment, but utorrent works great under wine too
[07:48] <pazemlsqdfmoj> tale-wkstn: what do i do when i want to add ?something=something at the end?
[07:48] <barnetod> bittorrent is the worst client out besides bitcomet
[07:48] <glisse_> anyone know how to boot with framebuffer disabled under edgy ?
[07:49] <tale-wkstn> just add it
 i just figured out it switched to another, and unfortunately your link is not for ubuntu :-(
[07:49] <Alphonso> Falstius: U dont have it and dont know what it is .. but still u still got it perfectly alright :)
[07:49] <pazemlsqdfmoj> "could not open input file"
[07:49] <dacableguy> bittorrent is just good for people who need it to just work without wanting to configure a bunch of stuff
[07:49] <barnetod> dacable if i use utorrent under wine will it still keep my activities under windows in there?
[07:49] <lullabud> glisse_:  can you use a vga= string on boot?
[07:49] <pazemlsqdfmoj> gh0st: its the link i used, so should work :|
[07:49] <barnetod> i havent bothered trying it
[07:49] <chuckyp> dacableguy, how idd you install azureus from the repos?
[07:49] <tale-wkstn> is that output from your script?
[07:49] <Alphonso> k let me give it a try
[07:49] <pazemlsqdfmoj> tale-wkstn: no
[07:49] <glisse_> lullabud, this parameter seems quietly ignored
[07:49] <Gabby_Hayes> !edgy
[07:49] <ubotu> Ubuntu 6.10 (codenamed Edgy Eft) is the latest version of Ubuntu. To upgrade to Edgy, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades  -  To download Edgy: http://www.ubuntu.com/download (please use BitTorrent if you can!)
[07:49] <dacableguy> if you dual boot with windows, utorrent wont touch your windows activities....the 2 installs of utorrent will be completely separate from each other
[07:49] <tale-wkstn> verify the path to the php file you are trying to run
 i have no /proc/asound/modules !?
[07:50] <pazemlsqdfmoj> tale-wkstn: i tabbed my way to it
[07:50] <macaco> hello
[07:50] <lullabud> glisse_:  edgy is freakin weird man... i'm having troubles with it too.
[07:50] <dacableguy> i didnt install it from the repos, as its broken...i dled it from the officical site and extracted the tarball into /opt and voila, it worked
[07:50] <tale-wkstn> pazemlsqdfmoj, check out the docs in /usr/share/doc/php-cli
[07:50] <michaels_> on Xubuntu Edgy on a very weak system I tried to play around with UI and WM settings and now after I logged out and then in most fonts are tiny and hardly readable. this is only the case on my own account. what do I do?
[07:50] <macaco> can I ask ubuntu server's questions here?
[07:50] <Falstius> sometimes I forget that I still have windows installed on a partition of my machine.
[07:50] <lullabud> glisse_:  like, why the hell is /bin/sh symlinked to dash?  it messed up a custom kernel compile. =/
[07:50] <barnetod> chucky im looking for a good repo site for you
[07:50] <tale-wkstn> it has it's own php.ini file for the cli
[07:50] <barnetod> fal if it werent for school and statistics and calculus i wouldnt use windows
[07:50] <tale-wkstn> you may need to enable some parameters
[07:51] <Gabby_Hayes> lullabud .. am trying to get edgy on a 64-bit AMD system ... sigh  :-(
[07:51] <macaco> I need to set up my ipaddress thru dhcp on a ubuntu server
[07:51] <pazemlsqdfmoj> gh0st: hmm, could be the file location is different, i dont recall, and im no ubuntu expert :)
[07:51] <pazemlsqdfmoj> tale-wkstn: k
[07:51] <psusi> Gabby_Hayes: what's the problem?
[07:51] <dacableguy> edgy is working great for me
[07:51] <barnetod> edgy works great for me
[07:51] <chuckyp> dacableguy, extract to /opt and then you made a symlink or you launch it from there?
[07:51] <lullabud> Gabby_Hayes:  i'm trying to get it on a 64-bit xeon system.  *sigh*
[07:52] <dacableguy> every now and then ill have it randomly freeze though...not sure why
[07:52] <lullabud> Gabby_Hayes:  actually it installed pretty well.  dapper had trouble recognizing the raid array for me, but edgy recognized it fine.  no network though.
[07:52] <barnetod> i had it freeze one time
[07:52] <lullabud> Gabby_Hayes:  what problems are you seeing?
[07:52] <barnetod> when using synaptic
[07:52] <dacableguy> no symlinks needed
[07:52] <Gabby_Hayes> psusi .. can't get it to copy to a DVD from another system, or even after a d/l, it won't run  (have no idea, why)
[07:52] <fredl> Hmm, firefox in Edgy uses google suggest....
[07:52] <michaels_> xubuntu edgy problem: on one single user account, title fonts and most other UI fonts are tiny and hardly readable. what do I do?
[07:52] <fredl> or doesn't it?
[07:52] <Alphonso> Falstius : Dude I am trying to  add Applictaion in configuration window of wine .. but I still I dont see any file.. the path u mentioned back there  "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop\photoshop.exe" plz let me know how to use it
[07:52] <barnetod> lol chucky the azureus website locked my firefox up
[07:52] <barnetod> hahaha
[07:53] <doccy> can anyone help me figure this out? on boot i always get "PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 7 of bridge"
[07:53] <psusi> Gabby_Hayes: you can't burn the install cd?
[07:53] <macaco> is there a room for ubuntu server?
[07:53] <fredl> uhm #ubuntu-server ?
[07:53] <chuckyp> dacableguy, /opt is in your path?
[07:53] <Gabby_Hayes> am going to try that soon,  as soon as I get it  d/l   (on a slow aDSL)
[07:53] <psusi> Gabby_Hayes: which image are you downloading?  and what program are you using to burn it with?
[07:53] <pazemlsqdfmoj> tale-wkstn: i have a curious problem, when i open the file in my brower, it opens perfectly, but when i do it in command line, it fails to include_once() the files i need
[07:53] <lasse> what do i have to do to get rhythmbox to support last.fm ?

[07:54] <fredl> I love X Windows.

[07:54] <femi> i have to configure a network
[07:55] <lullabud> i love xdmcp
[07:55] <Pensacola> just a quick message to thank everyone for the best operating system ever!
[07:55] <Legendre> so, anyone feel like helping with my PDF/PS printing issue?
[07:55] <femi> actually i have to configure a ethernet connection between 2 pcs
[07:55] <psusi> Gabby_Hayes:  I'm confused... if you have not finished downloading it yet, what is the problem?
[07:55] <Legendre> in short, I can't print any PS or PDF.
[07:55] <fredl> Pensacola - you're not on #solaris
[07:55] <barnetod> you using a router?
[07:55] <femi> and i dunno howto
[07:55] <Pensacola> nope I'm not :)
[07:55] <kikiwitc1> fredl: lol
[07:55] <barnetod> legendre what file is ps
[07:55] <femi> one has ubuntu 6.06, the other ubuntu 6.10
[07:55] <Pensacola> ubuntu all the way
[07:55] <barnetod> ?
[07:55] <Legendre> barnetod - postscript
[07:55] <leofender_> how can i install "gaparted.tar.gz" ??
[07:55] <Gabby_Hayes> psusi  .. this is a different attempt
[07:55] <femi> no, i am using simple ethernet connection
[07:55] <femi> just a cable
[07:55] <fredl> Pensacola, Ubuntu isn't even an OS dweeb.
[07:55] <kikiwitc1> Pensacola: should you not thank Linus for the Linux Kernal then?
[07:56] <leofender_> im new in linux
[07:56] <Legendre> All other printing seems to work just fine, it's only ps/pdf that will not print
[07:56] <barnetod> leo ill get you a site
[07:56] <Pensacola> well yeah, that's why I said everyone :)
[07:56] <barnetod> legend let me search :)
[07:56] <psusi> Gabby_Hayes: ok... so what did you try the first time and what went wrong?
[07:56] <leofender_>  how can i install "gaparted.tar.gz" ??
[07:56] <femi> how can i configure it?
[07:56] <JasonF> Hey, I'm having trouble finding the download page for edgy pxe images .. anyone have a link?
[07:56] <femi> i mean what do i have to configure?
[07:56] <MarcN> leofender_: do you mean gparted?
[07:56] <tale-wkstn> pazemlsqdfmoj, I'm sure it is because of the paths
[07:56] <doccy> how do i find out what kernel im running?
[07:57] <Legendre> doccy - uname -a
[07:57] <barnetod> leo you have synaptic?
[07:57] <jvolkman> doccy: uname -a
[07:57] <doccy> thanks
[07:57] <pazemlsqdfmoj> tale-wkstn: what paths?
[07:57] <meherenOS-X> how do i install a soure tarball again? (without doing the hole ./configure...make...sudo make install thing)
[07:57] <tale-wkstn> run the script from the directory were the file is
[07:57] <barnetod> go to administration then synaptic software manager or whatever
[07:57] <leofender_> i got a gparted.
[07:57] <barnetod> and look for gparted on there
[07:57] <lullabud> isn't there a separate edgy discussion room?  i remember the mods always used to get pissed when we'd talk about dapper in here before it was released....
[07:57] <psusi> meherenOS-X: you don't
[07:57] <meherenOS-X> psusi, yes you can... ive done it before
[07:57] <barnetod> synaptic will install it for you
[07:57] <psusi> meherenOS-X: install the package via synaptic
[07:57] <barnetod> rather than use a tarball install
[07:57] <dacableguy> edgy is released
[07:57] <femi> cause i have two ethernet cards: one for the dsl router and one to connect to my lapto
[07:57] <MarcN> meherenOS-X: that is the definition of installing a source tarball!  ./configure ; make install, etc
[07:58] <tale-wkstn> the paths are probably are relative to the directory where the script is ran
[07:58] <leofender_> i have gparted.tar.gz
[07:58] <fredl> some people need to get their credits right methinks.
[07:58] <barnetod> hold on leo :)
[07:58] <lullabud> dacableguy:  right, but i remember there was a chat for next-gen cutting edge unstable type stuff.
[07:58] <psusi> meherenOS-X: no.. you can not... source code needs to be compiled to get a program
[07:58] <leofender_> and i dont know what make!
[07:58] <Gabby_Hayes> psusi .. tried to d/l to the target 64-bit system (using Dapper 32-bit) .. and then upgrade .. but it never starts upgrading .. just hangs .. doing nothing
[07:58] <pazemlsqdfmoj> tale-wkstn: you mean where the php-cli is installed or the original page that i call is located?
[07:58] <meherenOS-X> psusi, there is some program that did it for you
[07:58] <meherenOS-X> i mean it compiled it turned it into a .deb then installed it
[07:58] <Gabby_Hayes> so will try to d/l to another box, and burn a DVd
[07:58] <psusi> Gabby_Hayes: you can not upgrade from 32 to 64 bit
[07:58] <MarcN> leofender_: it is better to install the gparted package that is prebuilt.  Use synaptic or apt-get install gparted
[07:58] <meherenOS-X> maybe it was alien...
[07:58] <psusi> Gabby_Hayes: you need to install 64 from the get go if you want to run that
[07:59] <fredl> Ubuntu should thank Debian, Debian should thank the FSF and Linux, and Linux should thank Minix and Minix should thank Andrew Tanenbaum.
[07:59] <fredl> or something.
[07:59] <JasonF> Hey, I'm having trouble finding the download page for edgy pxe images .. anyone have a link?
[07:59] <fredl> get it right :)
[07:59] <tale-wkstn> pazemlsqdfmoj, if the script is located in /var/www/yoursite/script.php, then cd into /var/www/yoursite and then run the script like php script.php
[07:59] <Gabby_Hayes> ahh .. hxs .. psusi  .. didn't see that problem anywhere  :-(
[07:59] <psusi> meherenOS-X: alien takes rpms and turns them into debs
[07:59] <barnetod> leo
[07:59] <pazemlsqdfmoj> tale-wkstn: ah, and how would i solve this in the crontab?
[07:59] <psusi> meherenOS-X: to work with a source tarball though, you have to ./configure and make
[07:59] <barnetod> i pmd you
[07:59] <tale-wkstn> make a script that cd's to the proper directory and then calls php script.php
[08:00] <meherenOS-X> psusi, i know there is a way! i have done it before!
[08:00] <leofender_> yeah. but not install gparted because not know where is the package
[08:00] <fredl> anybody wanna give a cheer to Linus?  I tried krusader, but it didn't hit the spot, even though total commander is my favorite in windows
[08:00] <tale-wkstn> pazemlsqdfmoj, glad to help
[08:00] <fredl> hey guys, I'm trying to install a theme in firefox, any idea why that doesn't seem to work??
[08:00] <Legendre> Ok, so this is a known issue for HP printers, with NO fix?
[08:00] <leofender_> synaptic ? whats this ?
[08:00] <Legendre> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=279306
[08:01] <leofender_> ok. will look
[08:01] <barnetod> leo in your console
[08:01] <barnetod> type
[08:01] <barnetod> sudo apt-get install gparted
[08:01] <leofender_> lol. sory but i new on linux O
[08:01] <leofender_> SOS
[08:01] <leofender_> jajaj
[08:01] <barnetod> load up terminal
[08:01] <leofender_> will look
[08:01] <barnetod> go to applications
[08:01] <barnetod> then accessories
[08:01] <barnetod> then terminal
[08:01] <kronoman> Ayabara: try midnight commander (console) or gnome commander
[08:01] <psusi> leofender_: synaptic is the package management program you will fine in the admin menu... you use it for installing and removing things
[08:01] <kronoman> they are very similar to norton commander
[08:01] <chuckyp> Okay i'm trying to figure this out
[08:02] <barnetod> psusi im trying to help him he is lost
[08:02] <barnetod> maybe you can spell it out for him
[08:02] <Ayabara> kronoman: I'll check them out. thanks
[08:02] <chuckyp> I extracted azureus to /opt/azureus   so now I want to make it system wide executable
[08:02] <leofender_> oooh
[08:02] <leofender_> okey
[08:02] <leofender_> will look
[08:02] <leofender_> thanks
[08:02] <barnetod> you get it loaded leo?
[08:02] <Ayabara> http://impressive.net/people/gerald/1996/ugweb/HOW_TO_EMACS.html
[08:02] <kronoman> Ayabara: as far as  I know, they aren't in the main repository of ubuntu
[08:02] <barnetod> the terminal? or synaptic
[08:03] <Legendre> barnetod - find anything useful?
[08:03] <barnetod> legend still looking
[08:03] <barnetod> these sites suck :)
[08:03] <kronoman> Ayabara: check here : http://www.nongnu.org/gcmd/
[08:03] <MarcN> Ayabara: that is eVIl
[08:03] <Legendre> I found the link about, someone else same issue, older HP printer
[08:03] <Legendre> *above
[08:03] <Ayabara> MarcN: maybe I should state clearly that it's a joke :-)
[08:03] <chuckyp> Anyone know how I make a symlink in /usr/bin to /opt/azureus/azureus   ???
[08:03] <Ayabara> in case someone tries it out
[08:03] <Legendre> chuckyp - man ln
[08:04] <fredl> the Firefox themes appear to be using some different icons.... but nothing about color schemes Hrmmm
[08:04] <barnetod> legendre you tried /usr/bin/lp -d printername
[08:04] <chuckyp> Legendre, I looked at the man pages for ln
[08:04] <chuckyp> Legendre, but i'm not sure if thats what I have to do make a symlink or a hardlink  and I tried it and it didn't make it.  Or if it did I have no idea where it created it.
[08:04] <fredl> Tangerine is 950K and all it's getting me is some different navigation icons Htmmm
[08:04] <Legendre> chuckyp - what part about ln -s doesn't make sense?
[08:04] <psusi> chuckyp: sudo ln -s /usr/bin/azureus /opt/azureus/azureus
[08:04] <voluspa> ln -s /opt/azureus/azureus /usr/bin/azureus
[08:05] <Legendre> barnetod - well, lpr -P lj4 in this case, yes, I tried it
[08:05] <voluspa> the target comes first
[08:05] <barnetod> k :)
[08:05] <Legendre> barnetod - there are no errors generated in any log, or on the console
[08:05] <barnetod> you trying to print from firefox?
[08:05] <barnetod> or from reader itself?
[08:05] <chuckyp> ahh I was in /usr/bin and was just doing ln -s azureus /usr/bin/azureus
[08:05] <Legendre> in any PDF viewer app
[08:05] <chuckyp> Normal users can write to /opt
[08:05] <barnetod> ah
[08:05] <Legendre> evince, xpdf, from the commandline etc
[08:05] <voluspa> yep good thing ln warns you by "theres already a file named..."
[08:06] <Ayabara> kronoman: gnome-commander looks like what I need. kinda similar to krusader..
[08:06] <Legendre> voluspa - unless you ln -sf ;-)
[08:06] <voluspa> hehe
[08:06] <leofender_> i cant install gparted because  is not possible to find the package
[08:06] <leofender_> why ?
[08:06] <voluspa> bad move...
[08:06] <leofender_> if i have the package
[08:07] <Ayabara> kronoman: gnome-commander is in universe
[08:07] <graveson> how cna i find out which java verion i am usinr and is it worth it to upgrade to jre 1.5
[08:07] <Legendre> barnetod - this issue is screwing me badly at work..
[08:07] <barnetod> i understand legendre lol
[08:07] <Legendre> barnetod - I blew away a stable slackware system for Ubuntu..
[08:07] <barnetod> im searching
[08:07] <chuckyp> Okay it said it created the symlink but its not there.
[08:07] <barnetod> you have the cups pdf package installed?
[08:07] <Legendre> barnetod - I have a default install
[08:08] <barnetod> leo load up the terminal
[08:08] <fredl> anybody know what this message means: ALSA lib confmisc.c:1105:(snd_func_refer) Unable to find definition 'defaults.pcm.ipc_key'
[08:08] <voluspa> Legendre: I blev away a LinuxFromScratch for Ubuntu today :-) I'm very satisfied.
[08:08] <leofender_> and ?
[08:08] <Legendre> voluspa - get my pdfs to print, and I might be satisfied as well..
[08:08] <barnetod> type this leo
[08:08] <Legendre> the rest works OK so far
[08:08] <barnetod> sudo apt-get install gparted
[08:08] <leofender_> ok
[08:08] <leofender_> tell me :)
[08:08] <leofender_> ok
[08:08] <Legendre> what's this about a cups-pdf package, barnetod ?
[08:09] <barnetod> sudo apt-get install cups-pdf
[08:09] <barnetod> try that
[08:09] <barnetod> see if it works
[08:09] <Legendre> heh.
[08:09] <voluspa> Legendre: Sorry, I'm a newbie in ubuntu... totally different concept than a selfcompiled system
[08:09] <fredl> oh, known error....
[08:09] <fredl> and nobody fixed it yet two weeks after releasing edgy grr
[08:09] <Elko> voluspa: heh, finally decided it's better to be lazy, too? ;^)
[08:10] <leofender_> oh no!. its not possible to find the package!. i will cry!
[08:10] <leofender_> lol
[08:10] <chuckyp> voluspa, Okay I did ln -s /usr/bin/azureus /opt/azureus/azureus  it said it created the symlink but its not there.
[08:10] <barnetod> not able to find package?
[08:10] <voluspa> Elko:  Yep. Slackware in 1996, then lfs 2000 and now ubuntu. Progress!
[08:10] <MarcN> leofender_: please go read up on how to use synaptic.  I
[08:11] <cybervegan> hello guys... can anyone help with an adsl modem problem, please?
[08:11] <chuckyp> voluspa, I was using sudo as well.  forgot to add that.
[08:11] <barnetod> leo
[08:11] <barnetod> ubuntuguide.org
[08:11] <leofender_> que ?
[08:11] <leofender_> yep? :P
[08:11] <barnetod> read a little bit on synaptic
[08:11] <barnetod> it will help you
[08:11] <Elko> voluspa: about the same here, only some little bite of gentoo in between
[08:11] <leofender_> okey
[08:11] <dfcarney> cybervegan: just state the problem -- hopefully, someone will know the answer
[08:11] <leofender_> thank!
[08:11] <leofender_> :D
[08:11] <cybervegan> ok, here goes ;-)
[08:11] <barnetod> legend im searching forums real fast
[08:12] <barnetod> ill brb
[08:12] <charle97> chuckyp, it's ln -s /opt/azureus/azureus /usr/bin/azureus
[08:12] <cybervegan> i'm in th uk, using a bt voyager 105
[08:12] <voluspa> chuckyp: Ah, I've done away with sudo. Did a "sudo su", then "passwd root", now I just "su" .
[08:12] <cybervegan> i've tried an old (2005 - hoary) procedure that uses pppoa from debian
[08:12] <MarcN> leofender_: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Partition_Editor_.28GParted.29
[08:12] <rich_> hey guys i have a boot question.  I have linux-686-smp installed but its only showing 2.6.17-10-generic for an option to boot in.  any suggestions?
[08:12] <cybervegan> plus eciadsl from ubuntu i think
[08:13] <chuckyp> charle97, that didn't work either.
[08:13] <cybervegan> the procedure says to use a special .bin file rather than the default
[08:13] <ubuntu_newb> in ubuntu if you want to run as root just type sudo in front of the command (for example sudo apt-get remove program-name)
[08:13] <cybervegan> but it's not in the .deb files apparently
[08:13] <barnetod> i use the generic rich
[08:13] <charle97> chuckyp, you installed azureus in opt?
[08:13] <anuvis07> http://teletrece.canal13.cl/t13/html/
[08:14] <rich_> hmm im trying to install vmware and i think having the wrong headers is giving me a problem
[08:14] <chuckyp> charle97, voluspa perhaps you guys don't understand.  I've downloaded azureus and extracted it to /opt/azureus  I want to make it system wide executable so don't I just create a link in /usr/bin  but for some reason the link is not being created.
[08:14] <fredl> anybody have a clue why totem locks my mouse??
[08:14] <thor> chuckyp: are you creating it as root (sudo)
[08:14] <pazemlsqdfmoj> whats the extension of a linux script again? :D
[08:14] <chuckyp> charle97, voluspa i've tried both sudo ln -s /usr/bin/azureus /opt/azureus/azureus  and the other way around.  Neither puts a link in /usr/bin
[08:15] <pazemlsqdfmoj> the linux equivalent of .bat
[08:15] <chuckyp> thor, yes i'm using sudo
[08:15] <rich_> what kernel is everyone running on edgy?
[08:15] <ubuntu_newb> kernel?
[08:15] <fredl> 2.6.17-10
[08:15] <ubuntu_newb> how can I find that out?
[08:15] <pazemlsqdfmoj> rich_: im running none at all!!
[08:15] <chuckyp> pazemlsqdfmoj, it doens't need an extension it just needs to be executable
[08:15] <ubuntu_newb> I just installed edgy
[08:15] <thor> chuckyp: leave off the last azureus
[08:15] <pazemlsqdfmoj> chuckyp: k thx :)
[08:15] <ubuntu_newb> not sure
[08:15] <fredl> ubuntu_newb, uname -r
[08:15] <ubuntu_newb> thanks
[08:15] <thor> chuckyp: and the source is first, then the link location
[08:15] <chuckyp> thor, so just link to the directory?
[08:15] <ifireball> chuckyp: what does "ls -l /usr/bin/azureus" give you ?
[08:16] <chuckyp> ifireball, its not there.
[08:16] <voluspa> chuckyp: ? I'm a newbie here... Perhaps something with security is preventing you. Don't know
[08:16] <fredl> cool, I can watch por... ehr video in my browser again.
[08:16] <d-snp> hey, where does an application throw an error if it exits unexpectedly?
[08:16] <thor> chuckyp: sudo ln -s /opt/azureus/azureus /usr/bin
[08:16] <_bt> hi guys im trying to install xgl following instructions in the wiki, when i try to install the packages im getting "beryl not found"
[08:16] <d-snp> dmesg is empty..
[08:16] <ifireball> chuckyp: ok, what does "/opt/azureus/azureus" give you
[08:16] <ubuntu_newb> Kernel version for my edgy is 2.6.17-10-generic
[08:16] <chuckyp> ifireball, that will launch azureus
[08:16] <voluspa> Anyways. Off I got to find instructions how to compile a kernel in this environment... Should be funl.
[08:17] <ifireball> chuckyp: sorry i mean "ls -l /opt/azureus/azureus"
[08:17] <barnetod> legendre what reader you using?
[08:17] <chuckyp> thor, ty
[08:17] <ifireball> chuckyp: also, what thor said should work
[08:17] <charle97> rich_, the 2.6.17-10 kernel should already be smp
[08:17] <gh0st> .why do i have 2 things in my gnome-mixer: my soundblaster 5.1 AND another one i don't know what it is. It does mute the card however!?
[08:17] <chuckyp> thor, didn't realize that i didn't need to name the link
[08:18] <thor> chuckyp: you are free to rename it after it is created
[08:18] <CarlFK> what is the package name of the java plugin for firefox?
[08:19] <ifireball> chuckyp: naming it shouldn't have given you any trouble though
[08:19] <green-earz> cybervegan: the adsl modem you have now is usd connection ? which can be setup but you need to google for " linux bt voyager 105 "  I would say that you would be better off getting a netgear DG384 of ebay
[08:19] <fredl> ever get the impression that there are too many people here asking too many questions about often rather specialized subjects?
[08:19] <chuckyp> thor, but for some reason the program won't launch if i'm using the link it errors out.  But if I go to /opt/azureus and ./azureus it works just fine.
[08:19] <lukas_> CarlFK: apt-cache search j2re1.4-mozilla-plugin
[08:20] <thor> chuckyp: open a terminal, type 'azureus' and tell me the error indication
[08:20] <fredl> I don't often see 'dumb questions' nor do I ask them myself I think, but to have exactly the same conditions as somebody who's asking a question is frequently a small chance.
[08:20] <rixxon> where to clear "recent documents" history for the gnome-main-menu package applet?
[08:20] <fredl> oh well, I should stop babbling.
[08:20] <CarlFK> lukas_: thanks
[08:20] <IA-Outdoors> is there an ubuntu channel specific to laptops?
[08:20] <chuckyp> thor, java errors in "main"
[08:21] <ifireball> chuckyp: that just bad head-in-ass scripting for you... its probably looking for other scripts in the directory it was launched from, you're better off making a script rather then a link in /usr/bin
[08:21] <tim167> hi all, I plan to install ubuntu as second boot on my (now xp) thinkpad G40, any do's and don'ts before I start ?
[08:21] <chuckyp> thor, then it terminates  to many lines to paste bout 5 lines in all.  But like I say if I cd to opt and launch it it works.
[08:21] <thor> chuckyp: I just checked and /usr/bin/azureus is a script...so a link won't work
[08:22] <ifireball> chuckyp: or just add /opt/azureus to the path
[08:22] <fredl> are the fglrx kernel modules still in the linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r` ?
[08:22] <gh0st> how can i disable OSS without recompiling kernel?
[08:22] <charle97> ghost, blacklist it
[08:22] <concept10> !swap
[08:22] <ubotu> swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[08:22] <chuckyp> thor, yeah it is a script bummer.   So do I need to create a hardlink then instead of a symlink or am I totally confused.
[08:23] <sybariten> dear ubuntuers
[08:23] <thor> chuckyp: it looks like you need to be in /opt/azureus.
[08:23] <sybariten> i needed a tool to check the installed memory in a headless box
[08:23] <fredl> hmm I have the fglrx kernel modules loaded but get Mesa GL
[08:23] <sybariten> i did an apt-cache search for "memtest"
[08:23] <ifireball> chuckyp: no a hardlink won't help you here
[08:23] <leofender_> hi
[08:23] <leofender_> de synaptic its installed
[08:23] <thor> chuckyp: I think a simple bash script that changes to /opt/azureus and then runs ./azureus would work
[08:23] <chuckyp> ifireball, I thought making the link was just executing it from /opt
[08:23] <chuckyp> thor, yeah I could just do that.
[08:23] <sybariten> i tried installing a tool called "memtest86+", but apt says i already have the latest version. anybody know what the binary is called, that i wanna run?
[08:24] <sybariten> cause its not "memtest"
[08:24] <thor> chuckyp: I think that is the easiest solution
[08:24] <chuckyp> ifireball, but it copied the script to /usr/bin
[08:24] <thor> (assuming it works
[08:24] <Juan___> Do you know any human way to connect a Mac to an Ubuntu server ? NFS doesn't work
[08:24] <psusi> sybariten: in a headless box?  that's going to be hard
[08:24] <CarlFK> sybariten: you pick memtest from your boot options
[08:24] <sybariten> psusi: how so ?
[08:24] <mel> Does anybody know how to add a search result to an existing search result ?
[08:24] <chuckyp> thor, yeah it will work.  So how do I remove the link now just rm it?
[08:24] <psusi> sybariten: how do you expect to see its output?
[08:24] <IA-Outdoors> anybody here speak hungarian by chance?
[08:24] <sybariten> psusi: in the shell ?
[08:24] <coNP> IA-Outdoors: sure
[08:24] <thor> chuckyp: yes...just 'rm' it
[08:24] <IA-Outdoors> coNP can I msg you?
[08:24] <ifireball> chuckyp: no it didn't copy it, but symling essentially makes the system behave as if the file is there
[08:24] <psusi> sybariten: memtest is not a linux program... it has to run outside the kernel
[08:24] <coNP> IA-Outdoors: sure
[08:24] <chuckyp> ifireball, gotcha
[08:25] <sybariten> CarlFK: ok ... its a server ... i was hoping do do something shell-wise
[08:25] <mel> For example user1 = account.users.first; users2 = account.users.last; user3 = user1 + user2
[08:25] <psusi> sybariten: you boot directly into it instead of linux... so you will need to plug a monitor into this box at least to see the results
[08:25] <sybariten> psusi: i see.... strange then that apt senses it
[08:25] <sybariten> psusi: ok
[08:25] <CarlFK> sybariten: memtest wants to be the only thing running so it can test all memory - it moves itself around
[08:25] <thor> chuckyp: I usually put scripts like we are talking about in ~/bin so I remember "I" wrote them
[08:25] <mel> eerrr wrong channel
[08:25] <psusi> sybariten: the package installs the program and configures grub to boot into it... it is installed by default so when you are booting up you can choose it as a boot option from the grub menu
[08:25] <chuckyp> thor, yeah I don't really know the proper directory structure i'll put it in bin
[08:25] <sybariten> so, anyone know any bulletproof way of checking via shell how much installed memory i have? i'm sure there is some easier way to do it thatn installing 3d party software
[08:26] <gh0st> how can i disable OSS without recompiling kernel?
[08:26] <leofender_> i m going to sleep!. thank guys!
[08:26] <sybariten> psusi: cool
[08:26] <leofender_> thanks for all!
[08:26] <thor> chuckyp: that is 'bin' in your home directory
[08:26] <ubuntu_newb> N tud beszl magyar.
[08:26] <leofender_> xD
[08:26] <psusi> sybariten: you just want to see how much memory you have or test that it is workign properly?
[08:26] <atlas95> hello
[08:26] <thor> chuckyp: it should be in your path...should be added at login
[08:26] <atlas95> could you help me please?
[08:26] <gh0st> how can i disable OSS without recompiling kernel?
[08:26] <ifireball> chuckyp: /usr/local/bin may be a better choice here
[08:26] <sybariten> psusi: just see how much i got
[08:26] <atlas95> Starting Music Player Daemon: cannot open music_directory "/media/DOCUMENTS/Ma musique/" (config line 14): Permission denied
[08:26] <atlas95> failed.
[08:26] <psusi> sybariten: ohh, then just run free or vmstat
[08:26] <ifireball> !ramdrive
[08:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ramdrive - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:26] <sybariten> psusi: well, the optimal would be to see if its PC100 or 133, but i doubt a simple shell tool can do that
[08:26] <ifireball> !ramfs
[08:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ramfs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:27] <sybariten> psusi: i did try vmstat, but the output didnt make me any smarter ... never tried "free" though
[08:27] <thor> atlas95: just a guess...did you mount /media/DOCUMENTS as root?
[08:27] <sybariten> well, whaddaya know. Looks like i have 256 megs installed.
[08:27] <atlas95> it is an usb disk
[08:27] <atlas95> and i can read it
[08:27] <chuckyp> ifireball, IS that the proper one?  Both are in my path however.  /usr/local/bin doens't exist but its in my path.
[08:27] <atlas95> but it is just mpd which bug :/
[08:28] <atlas95> when i do ls -l /media/DOCUMENTS/Ma \Musique
[08:28] <hoelk> hmm i have two soundcards (and a tv card which is also recognized as soundcard), and whenever i boot they are adressed differently (eg: plughw:0,0 plughw:1,0 etc...), how can i assign them a fix adress?
[08:28] <atlas95> I have atlas:atlas
[08:28] <hoelk> (alsa)
[08:28] <sybariten> thanks psusi
[08:28] <ifireball> chuckyp: basically its where you put stuff you install locally so you can neatly seperate is from the package system
[08:29] <chuckyp> ifireball, gotcha also is /opt supposed to be writable by users?
[08:29] <ragnar_123> hey guys
[08:29] <atlas95> thor: ... :
[08:29] <atlas95> (
[08:29] <bieb_work> I am having an issue with installing 6.06 on my system with a 3ware 80062LP, 2 80gb drives in RAID1, after the install when it reboots, it comes up with "Boot from CD/DVD" but there is no CD or DVD in the drive, then it just dies
[08:29] <thor> atlas95: <thinking>
[08:29] <chuckyp> ifireball, cuz it doesn't look that way but I just wrote to it as a user without using sudo
[08:29] <ifireball> chuckyp: /opt is a redhat invention I'm opposed to, but users shouldnt be able to write anywhere outside of /home and /var
[08:30] <jvolkman> and /tmp
[08:30] <chuckyp> ifireball, yeah but I can try it  write to /opt
[08:30] <thor> atlas95: don't have experience with mpd...and don't have it installed so I can't try it.
[08:30] <selinuxium> since upgrading to edgy totem has  taken over instead of mozilla-mplayer. how do i get mplayer working in the browser again
[08:30] <selinuxium> ?
[08:30] <thor> atlas95: but it sounds like a permission problem. I have run into those before with usb drives.
[08:30] <atlas95> erf ok :(
[08:31] <ifireball> chuckyp: if you can write there I suppose you should chown and chmod it
[08:31] <chuckyp> ifireball, wth I know I moved azureus here and didn't use sudo maybe I did let me scrool up
[08:31] <lullabud> ifireball:  is opt really a redhat thing?
[08:31] <lullabud> ifireball:  i'm pretty sure i saw that in solaris too...
[08:31] <coNP> I think it is a unix thing :)
[08:31] <thor> atlas95: I found I have to give the system a minute after plugging in the drive to sort things out or I have permission problems
[08:31] <psusi> bieb_work: what is the name of the device you installed to?  can you get an fdisk -l on it?
[08:31] <lullabud> coNP:  that's what i think.
[08:31] <jvolkman> yeah, it is in solaris
[08:31] <coNP> lullabud: okay...
[08:31] <ifireball> lullabud: it came from old some unix, redhat afaik were the 1st to adopt it
[08:31] <psusi> yea, /opt was around long before redhat
[08:32] <bieb_work> psusi... I can look with the Ubuntu CD
[08:32] <atlas95> but my hard disk is plug since ...
[08:32] <lullabud> coNP:  oh, i mean i was agreeing with you... haha, not underscoring my opinion or anything
[08:32] <rukuartic> Hey all, figured I might ask here. I did some poor programming and ended up with lots of coredumps. Where does Ubuntu store coredumps? (They weren't in the working directory)
[08:32] <ifireball> lullabud: e.g. in Linux, note that everything from sourceforge ususally goes to /usr/local
[08:32] <psusi> bieb_work: and are you sure you have your bios configured to boot from the array?
[08:32] <bieb_work> yeah
[08:33] <psusi> rukuartic: iirc, they are disabled by default via setting the ulimit for core dump size to 0
[08:33] <bieb_work> psusi, I think Ubuntu sees it as a scsi array... one sec
[08:33] <chuckyp> ifireball, nm I did have sudo in there i'm retarded.
[08:33] <chuckyp> ifireball, if you are apposed to /opt where would you put software such as this in /usr/local/bin?
[08:33] <rukuartic> psusi: I'm sure I've gota bout a gig sitting around somewhere... but how would I check the ulimit? Is itin /etc?
[08:33] <psusi> bieb_work: yes, it should see one big scsi disk
[08:33] <ifireball> chuckyp: indeed
[08:34] <fredl> anybody happen to have bcm43xx_microcode2.fw for me?
[08:34] <chuckyp> ifireball, so just mv /opt/azureus /usr/local/bin/azureus
[08:34] <concept10> fredl, get it from the main site
[08:34] <ragnar_123> i have set up a tiny server, here at home. and i installed ubuntu successfully. right now everything works fine, but it's a server without screen, so i thougt of improving preformance by disabling the gui. how do i do that?
[08:34] <psusi> rukuartic: man ulimit... since it is set to 0 by default, you get no core dumps... but they usually go to the cwd of the process
[08:34] <fredl> I wanted to use bcm43xx-fwcutter but don't have the driver disk anywhere.
[08:34] <ifireball> chuckyp: dont bother, it isn't that important
[08:34] <Vaske_Car> What command it used to start real player from bash?
[08:34] <concept10> you dont need the driver disk
[08:34] <rukuartic> psusi: Thanks for the info :3
[08:34] <dcordes> all join #ubuntu-ch
[08:35] <fredl> concept10, oh they have a copy there? cool.
[08:35] <rukuartic> psusi: no man for ulimit. Found the exe though. I'll probably look online though. Thanks again.
[08:35] <fredl> concept10, http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/ ?
[08:35] <concept10> fredl, just go there, you'll see its easy... yes
[08:35] <chuckyp> ifireball, did you have to sudo mkdir /usr/local/bin  cuz I noticed on my edgy install its not there but its in my users path
[08:36] <recon0> In apt-cache, there is emacs and emacs21. What's the difference?
[08:36] <fredl> concept10, I must be blind then....
[08:36] <lullabud> recon0:  emacs is for minors.
[08:36] <Vaske_Car> its realplay   forun it....
[08:36] <thor> chuckyp: bin dirs should only contain executables...if you don't want /opt I would suggest /usr/local/share/azureus
[08:36] <jvolkman> nice one lullabud
[08:36] <thor> chuckyp: but I use /opt and I think it is part of LSB
[08:36] <ifireball> chuckyp: I have it, bun my system isn't a clean install, I suppose you should make it if you don't have it
[08:37] <bieb_work> PSUSI... if I go into System --> Admin --> Disks, the partition is listed as /dev/sda1
[08:37] <ifireball> chuckyp: sorry for my bad typing
[08:37] <quintin> I need a command line software sound equalizer
[08:37] <quintin> any ideas?
[08:37] <recon0> lullabud: does that amount to "don't use emacs"?
[08:37] <concept10> fredl, ok, let me refresh my mind on this.  I know that you get the files (looking) and the fwcutter tool should be in the repos
[08:37] <jvolkman> chuckyp, just use /opt, man
[08:37] <ifireball> quintin: you mean a volume control?
[08:37] <rukuartic> jvolkman: would you just ln -s something to /usr/bin then?
[08:37] <psusi> bieb_work: and it only shows sda correct?  no sdb?
[08:37] <ifireball> !aumixer
[08:37] <lullabud> recon0:  well, are you over 21?
[08:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about aumixer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:38] <quintin> ifireball: I mean what I just frikkin said.  equalizer.  not volume control.
[08:38] <ifireball> !aumix
[08:38] <ubotu> aumix: Simple text-based mixer control program. In component universe, is extra. Version 2.8-17 (edgy), package size 75 kB, installed size 440 kB
[08:38] <rukuartic> ubotu: uptime
[08:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about uptime - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:38] <recon0> lullabud: no.
[08:38] <lullabud> recon0:  actually i don't know what i'm talking about.  i use vim.
[08:38] <recon0> ...
[08:38] <darklinux> i have problems to compile amarok with ubuntu patches 1.44 with helix support
[08:38] <fredl> concept10, all I've found so far is that you need to have the driver disk for your NIC and then use bcm43xx-fwcutter to extract the firmware.
[08:38] <lullabud> recon0:  it was a joke man!
[08:38] <darklinux> http://paste.lisp.org/display/29381
[08:38] <bieb_work> psusi... sda1 is swap and sda2 is 72gb of unused
[08:38] <darklinux> sorry
[08:39] <psusi> bieb_work: then where did you install to?
[08:39] <jvolkman> recon0: apt-cache show emacs
[08:39] <jvolkman> recon0: clearly says that it simply points to the current version of emacs (emacs21)
[08:39] <concept10> fredl, no, that shouldnt be correct. You need to get the bcm43xx linux drivers. the fwcutter just extracts the firmware into a directory on your system
[08:40] <psusi> bieb_work: it looks like you never installed ubuntu
[08:40] <bieb_work> that is a good question.. I thought Ubuntu auto built the /boot partition, cause I didnt see an option for it when it gave me the install properties list
[08:40] <concept10> fredl, are you on dapper or edgy?
[08:40] <fredl> concept10, well I got the Linux driver installed but it complains it can't find the firmware so I think I need to extract the firmware from the original driver CD now.
[08:40] <fredl> concept10, Edgy
[08:40] <psusi> bieb_work: you don't have to have a seperate /boot, but you certainly need a root
[08:40] <quintin> My java plugin works with firefox.ubuntu, but not with my /opt/firefox which is mozilla.com build.  any ideas?
[08:40] <bieb_work> psusi... I am restarting the installer...
[08:41] <Gnewf> any way from the command line to get a frame from a video file and save it as an image?
[08:41] <concept10> fredl, okay, gimme a sec, im still looking
[08:41] <thor> quintin: just copy all the files in the original firefox/plugins directory to the /opt/firefox/plugins directory
[08:41] <yah_> bonjour a tous
[08:42] <bieb_work> psusi... I am at the install/edit partition screen
[08:42] <fredl> concept10 I also still have the original windows installed on another partition so I *should* have the driver files, no?
[08:42] <fowlduck> anyone have ubuntu running on the intel macs?
[08:42] <chuckyp> F it i'm just going to use gnome-bt
[08:42] <psusi> bieb_work: ok... the big unused partition should be set to be mounted as /
[08:42] <B_Lizzard> My Ubuntu has gone wild!
[08:42] <justin_> To remove a "binary" program I compiled myself to /usr/local/bin -- can I simply delete it? and the menu entry? - Or do I need to find the equivalent to windows dll/libs etc?
[08:43] <quintin> justin_: 'make uninstall clean' from the source dir.
[08:43] <fredl> B_Lizzard, cool.
[08:43] <justin_> quintin: There is no uninstall file :(
[08:43] <fowlduck> psusi, if there isn't an OS installed on it, don't mount it as /
[08:43] <bieb_work> psusi.. I have linux swap at 2gb
[08:43] <justin_> I have tryed that before, program in question is Amule
[08:43] <B_Lizzard> It failed to recongise my sound card at startup for the first time in 1 year, and the system beep has moved it's way to my speakers!
[08:43] <quintin> justin_: no, there is a Makefile.  In the source directory.
[08:43] <psusi> justin_: hopefully the original tarball contains a rule for make uninstall, otherwise yea, you have to hunt down all the files by hand
[08:43] <cdubya> I have an older Debian system that was running dual drives and the machine froze at one point and has since only gotten worse (I suspect the primary drive is failing). That said, I tried to boot the Dapper LiveCD and try to mount the drives from there, but I couldn't even get it to boot fully without errors if the primary was hooked up and wouldn't finish booting with just the secondary hooked up. Anyone have any ideas for me to
[08:43] <cherubiel> justin_: there should be an uninstall target in the makefile
[08:43] <yah_> je me demandais avec ma config (cpu:600mhz ; ram:128) si je pouvais passer de ubuntu 5.10 a unbuntu/kubuntu 6 ?
[08:44] <quintin> justin_: make uninstall.
[08:44] <quintin> justin_: or make deinstall
[08:44] <psusi> fowlduck: there will be when he tells the installer to use it for /
[08:44] <quintin> yah_: speak frikkin english. :)
[08:44] <cherubiel> !fr | yah_
[08:44] <ubotu> yah_: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[08:44] <quintin> ooh
[08:44] <B_Lizzard> allez!
[08:44] <quintin> there are channels for different languages?  cool
[08:44] <concept10> fredl, Check this out.  Youre not understanding me.  You dont need the windows drivers anymore.  this is not ndiswrapper, these are drivers written for linux.  They call it 'firmware'  You have to find the source and the bcm43xx-fwcutter just extracts them to /usr/lib/firmware
[08:44] <Vaske_Car> I had a lot less problems with 6.06 than with Edgy....
[08:44] <yah_> sorry I though be in ubuntu-fr
[08:44] <justin_> I deleted the /Amule/ source directory, so I guess I removed the make 'uninstall' file huh lol :()
[08:45] <fowlduck> psusi, oh, i thought something else was goin on, ignore me :)
[08:45] <fredl> concept10, oh okay cool. So where do I find the source for my NIC?
[08:45] <quintin> justin_: so get it again then.  and next time install with apt ;)
[08:45] <psusi> bieb_work: and?
[08:45] <bieb_work> psusi, I added the 72.5 gb as ext3 and will give it a mount point of /   correct?
[08:45] <justin_> quintin: Apt is not bad, but I like to watch my PC "make" files ;D
[08:45] <psusi> bieb_work: yes
[08:45] <thor> justin_: when I compile a program I always move the source to /usr/local/src...just for this reason
[08:45] <bieb_work> ok
[08:45] <Poser> How do I add new apps to start when my system starts? IE Gmail Notifier?
[08:45] <quintin> justin_: uhm.  right!
[08:45] <fredl> concept10, I find a lot of different sources in /usr/share/doc/bcm43xx-fwcutter/README.gz
[08:45] <concept10> fredl, I dont know where they moved the driver download (im looking) ... they have since moved the driver into the linux kernel so I think they took the download down
[08:45] <cherubiel> Poser: gnome?
[08:46] <secretum> I have a question
[08:46] <Poser> Yup.
[08:46] <justin_> thor: Yeah, seems like I will do that from now on.. - I always thought Linux binaries were stand alone files, that simply were dependant on libs already installed.
[08:46] <Poser> System>Prefs>Sessions>Startup... but what if I don't know the exact name of the executable? How can I find it?
[08:46] <thor> justin_: no, if anything they are sometimes worse than windows dll files (did he really say that!)
[08:46] <recon0> I just compiled a perfectly good c "hello world" program with gcc, and when I try to run it, I get "Segmentation Fault (core dumped)". I'm pretty sure that's not supposed to happen.
[08:47] <psusi> justin_: the make process does not install any libs... you have to do that yourself... but it probably installs a number of files including man pages, help files, config files, in addition to any binaries
[08:47] <concept10> fredl, hmm, i didnt have that readme on my system
[08:47] <denmagisketanogp> Is there anyone who has a script which can show the syslog onto the desktop background?
[08:47] <bieb_work> psusi... the installer is running
[08:47] <quintin> recon0: pastebin the source
[08:47] <justin_> Oh well you learn something new every day, and now I guess I understand why I am losing so much freespace so quickly.. even though I "Delete" the programs heh
[08:47] <secretum> I am testing out Ubuntu using the live CD right now, I have tried both Dapper and Edgy, but I have a problem with Edgy which is not a problem in Dapper
[08:47] <fredl> concept10, it's part of the bcm43xx-fwcutter package on Edgy.
[08:47] <pumaandre> Q: I want to set up an MTA on my Ubuntu box. I need IMAP/POP/SMTP. I know it might be a silly question, but what is the best server software for this task?
[08:47] <justin_> alright thanks
[08:48] <recon0> quintin: after including stdio.h, the source is "void main(){printf("\nHello World\n");}".
[08:48] <quintin> pumaandre: define 'best'.
[08:48] <concept10> fredl, thats cool
[08:48] <fredl> concept10, I just don't have a clue which 'source' to chose though.
[08:48] <mnepton> pumaandre: postfix or exim, depending on your kink
[08:48] <quintin> pumaandre: that's VERY ambigous, don't you think?  I use courier-imap and courier-imaps
[08:48] <concept10> fredl, te edgy package?
[08:48] <quintin> pumaandre: and postfix
[08:48] <fredl> concept10, this wireless card is built in on the mobo and I don't have a clue what brand/make it is.
[08:48] <psusi> pumaandre: I use dovecot for imap and postfix for smtp
[08:49] <pumaandre> quintin: does postfix support imap?
[08:49] <concept10> fredl, what does lspci tell you?
[08:49] <secretum> Edgy doesn't allow me to set my monitor to my normal resolution, 1280x1024, only 1024x768.  However, on Dapper it works fine. Does anyone have an idea why?
[08:49] <fredl> concept10, I just see it in lspci output: 03:01.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4303 802.11b Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
[08:49] <psusi> pumaandre: no... postfix is an smtp server...
[08:49] <fredl> OH!
[08:49] <fredl> argh
[08:49] <fredl> wait
[08:49] <fredl> I suck
[08:50] <fredl> DUUUUUH, I'm sorry it's not in the mobo it's a linksys card I put in!
[08:50] <fredl> by god am I forgetfull sometimes.
[08:50] <fredl> sjeez.
[08:50] <drarem> is there a way to free up some space on my dev/hda2?  after installing a few games and utils, my freespace dropped from 1.2Gb to 570Mb
[08:50] <secretum> Edgy doesn't allow me to set my monitor to my normal resolution, 1280x1024, only 1024x768.  However, on Dapper it works fine. Does anyone have an idea why?
[08:50] <pumaandre> ok, thanks. So why would I want postfix+some imap server when courier gives me both? (sorry if this seems stupid:-D)
[08:50] <fredl> now that should make it easier to choose since it's a linksys card.
[08:50] <jgarbers> hi - sorry for newb question but it looks like i installed Ubuntu without the development packages -- need to do a quick build, but i don't seem to have make, etc -- what's the appropriate package(s) for me to get, and how?
[08:51] <quintin> jgarbers: apt-get install build-essential
[08:51] <cherubiel> jgarbers: build-essential
[08:51] <concept10> fredl, so youre trying to get the linksys card working not the broadcom?
[08:51] <jgarbers> thanks
[08:51] <fredl> concept10, there's a broadcom chipset on the linksys card.
[08:51] <quintin> ifireball: I installed aumix, but I don't have a bass or treble control inside it
[08:51] <psusi> drarem: yea... delete some stuff?
[08:51] <rukuartic> From my ephesius fredl and concept10, the bcm drives that come preloaded don't work
[08:51] <drarem> i guess, is there like an uninstall or something
[08:52] <drarem> or resizing the partition?
[08:52] <bulong> ISO the download from ubuntu site should be bootable right?
[08:52] <rukuartic> *experience = ephesius
[08:52] <cherubiel> drarem: gparted
[08:52] <quintin> bulong: yes
[08:52] <rukuartic> bulong: You can boot from it, but you don't need to "burn it as bootable"
[08:52] <kikokos> hi I have short q: "I want to have ftp server" what application program you can reccomend me ?
[08:52] <psusi> drarem: if there is free space or another partition you can shrink, sure
[08:52] <quintin> drarem: what are you trying to resize?  partition or filesystem ?
[08:52] <mnepton> kikokos: vsftpd
[08:52] <rukuartic> kikokos: proftpd, it should be in the repositories
[08:52] <kikokos> thankyou
[08:53] <rukuartic> kikokos: either way you can search with apt-cache search ftpd
[08:53] <quintin> proftpd sux
[08:53] <psusi> drarem: fire up gparted from the livecd to resize partitions
[08:53] <cedd> ok i finaly partition the disk in raid 0 --- i created a non raid 1g boot on sda (/media/sda1)... when ubuntu finish installing all package, it want to install the boot loader, so i specify the location /dev/sda1 .. but it fails to install any idea why
[08:53] <mnepton> vsftpd has the lowest security silouhette
[08:53] <concept10> fredl, I checked the bcm43xx-fwcutter, it looks like it doesnt include the firmware
[08:53] <drarem> its the /dev/hda2 - contains my ubuntu
[08:53] <fredl> concept10, I know!
[08:53] <bulong> my system doesnt seem to recognize its a bootable CDROM after I burned it..its the ISO download, i can mount it okay thoug via -o loop, any other checks  I can make to see if its bootable?
[08:53] <drarem> the /dev/hda1 is the windoze one
[08:53] <fredl> heh
[08:53] <concept10> fredl, i dont know why the hell they moved the downloads
[08:54] <pumaandre> quintin: you say you use courier. Why is that? Why is it better than the rest?
[08:54] <fredl> concept10, copyright issues maybe?
[08:54] <mnepton> fredl: you get the fw cutter app, use it to extract the firmware injected into the card or from the Windows driver, and then inject that firmware into the card to use it under Ubuntu
[08:54] <quintin> pumaandre: I use it because it works.  please don't bother me on this topic.  just use what works for you
[08:54] <ifireball> bulong: you can try hex-reading the 1st 1024 bytes, othewise try booting it with vmware or some other vm
[08:54] <chuckyp> Anyone know how to redraw the desktop without restarting X or loging out?
[08:54] <zukalk> has anyone got any idea on why i have to manually enter the nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf (i do it through network-admin) every time i boot? i connect wirelessly to a router
[08:55] <psusi> bulong: check its md5sum?
[08:55] <pumaandre> ok, sorry
[08:55] <phanter> hi people. I am strugling with lvm2 and it is not going as planned. I just had to fix a hardware problem and then a drive changed from location in /dev/hdc1 to /dev/hdb1. How do I now remove the old (non excisting) drive from the lvm and how to isntall the new one (the man pages are very unclear about this)
[08:55] <recon0> quintin: forget about it. I recompiled it, and it worked. weird.
[08:55] <fredl> mnepton, well that's the issue, I can't find my friggen driver CD for that card anymore :)
[08:55] <quintin> zukalk: /etc/resolv.conf is reset by dhcp when you boot.   search the ubuntu forums for /etc/resolv.conf
[08:55] <concept10> fredl, no, it cant be copyright issues, they wouldnt have included the firmware in the kernel
[08:55] <quintin> quintin: ok.  I forget what I'm forgetting about.  but I trust you
[08:55] <zukalk> quintin: i will, thanks
[08:55] <mnepton> fredl: download the Windows driver from Linksys
[08:56] <psusi> cedd: could you be more specific?   also 1 gig is HUGE for /boot, 50-100 megs should be sufficient

[08:58] <cedd> ubuntu will be my unique os
[08:58] <Juan___> Is anyone using NFS ?
[08:58] <fredl> mnepton I found the disk, it's a linksysWAP11v2.6
[08:58] <psusi> cedd: for starters, what do you mean by "it fails to install"?  "it does not work" is not a good error description... and why are you installing the boot loader manually?  the setup program does this for you

[08:59] <malcobich> hi
[08:59] <malcobich> hi
[08:59] <malcobich> hi
[08:59] <lk11mn> howdy... so anyway, i downloaded and installed dmraid, and done dmraid -ay and it activated 2 of the disks i have in raid 1 on isw, but my sil disks dont seem to activate, any ideas psusi?
[08:59] <fredl> concept10, you are *sure* about that?
[08:59] <malcobich> hi
[08:59] <dredhammer> hmm it seems to give me an error related to x264 about an unknown parameter
[08:59] <GaiaX11> Which is the best linux mp3 downloader?
[08:59] <ifireball> quintin: yea, I suppose you want a REAL soft DSP, I donno any such programs
[08:59] <dv_> GaiaX11, mplayer
[08:59] <cedd> psusi yes it ask me do i want to install it in raid or i can choose a specifique location... i create a /boot partition outside the raid on my first hd
[08:59] <dv_> -dumpstream is your friend
[08:59] <GaiaX11> dv_: Not a player.
[08:59] <fredl> concept10, I mean I'm happy to go along with what you're saying but it's different from what mnepton just said and what I have understood in the past.
[08:59] <quintin> GaiaX11: no war3z talk, eh
[09:00] <drarem>   /dev/hda2     ext3     11G  9.3G  353M  97% /
[09:00] <savvas> GaiaX11: wget
[09:00] <cedd> thats where i m trying to install it in /sda1
[09:00] <psusi> cedd: and?
[09:00] <concept10> fredl, thats what I attempted to explain earlier
[09:00] <mnepton> pazemlsqdfmoj: >/dev/null 2>&1
[09:00] <dv_> GaiaX11, with -dumpstream mplayer behaves just like a downloader
[09:00] <drarem> that means i have 3% available?
[09:00] <dv_> it dumps the stream into "stream.dump"
[09:00] <GaiaX11> dv_: A program to download mp3 songs
[09:00] <dv_> yes, I know
[09:00] <savvas> GaiaX11: wget is a downloader
[09:00] <psusi> drarem: yes
[09:00] <sioux> a programamm to lissen radio?
[09:00] <drarem> and /dev/hda1     ntfs     60G   38G   23G  63% /media/windows
[09:01] <concept10> fredl, bcm43xx is a friver (firmware) written for linux for broadcom based cards, youre not wrapping a windows driver
[09:01] <ubuntu_newb> pazemlsqdfmoj: as long as rss_update is the name of the file you wish to run.  It don't have an extension such as .php
[09:01] <cedd> when i tell lilo to install it in /dev/sda1.. its telling me this partition is not active, then ask me if i wanna make it active, i said yes.. then i get the error that lilo failed to install in /dev/sda1
[09:01] <dv_> whats so special about an "mp3 downloader" that cannot be done with wget or mplayer?
[09:01] <zukalk> quintin: found a very, ahem, technical solution to my problem, which is to sudo chmod -w /etc/resolv.conf. i'll still have to find out what caused this in the first place (problem started a few days ago)
[09:01] <pazemlsqdfmoj> ubuntu_newb: i know, its a small script which has a php command inside it
[09:01] <savvas> dv_: maybe he meant p2p, like frostwire heh
[09:01] <psusi> cedd: why not use grub?  and you want to install to /dev/sda... not sda1
[09:01] <fredl> concept10, well then there's still the issue where I find the firmware for this card that I have identified as a WAP11v2.6 card.
[09:01] <dv_> savvas, oh
[09:02] <sioux> runs froswire?
[09:02] <cedd> ok so i dont need to put the 1 after sda
[09:02] <lk11mn> psusi i used dmraid, it picks up both of my raid controllers, but it only activates the intel one, the sil one doesnt seem to activate, even tho dmraid -r lists it and all the drives on it
[09:02] <GaiaX11> savvas: I know, but i'd like something similar to kazzar. But, better
[09:02] <dv_> GaiaX11, amule (emule cross-platform version). but if you download ILLEGAL stuff with it the **AA will bite you.
[09:02] <cedd> well lilo is the one that popup in the installation
[09:02] <dv_> so download only legal stuff. </disclaimer>
[09:02] <psusi> lk11mn: you run dmraid -ay and you only see the one array in /dev/mapper?
[09:02] <concept10> fredl, is that the same one based on the 4303 chipset
[09:03] <volvoguy> i'm back with more questions, aren't you thrilled?!
[09:03] <ubuntu_newb> pazemlsqdfmoj: Then you will probably want to add .php at the end of that cron command
[09:03] <ubuntu_newb> it is most likely a .php script
[09:03] <zukalk> volvoguy: i sure am
[09:03] <volvoguy> zukalk, :)
[09:03] <GaiaX11> dv_: I tried this, but it is very slow
[09:03] <ubuntu_newb> I believe that cron should run every 30 mins the way you have it configured.
[09:03] <fredl> concept10, yup. this is the WAP card: 03:01.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4303 802.11b Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
[09:03] <dv_> GaiaX11, probably you didnt forward the ports correctly
[09:04] <dv_> are you behind a router?
[09:04] <lk11mn> psusi well yeh, the same one shows up twice isw_hebacbgjj_data/data_1
[09:04] <pazemlsqdfmoj> ubuntu_newb: the script has a cd, a php and a wget command in it
[09:04] <volvoguy> is the server kernel SMP capable?
[09:04] <cedd> i thought i needed to say /dev/sda1 since i got a /boot swap and raid in sda
[09:04] <psusi> lk11mn: but not the via?  yet it shows up in dmraid -r?  hrm...
[09:04] <dv_> anyway, if your ID is low, then your ports dont forward correctly
[09:04] <savvas> GaiaX11: frostwire: www.frostwire.com
[09:04] <zukalk> volvoguy: the thrill has faded away... can't help you on that one ;)
[09:04] <psusi> lk11mn: what raid type is it?
[09:04] <volvoguy> zukalk, dang.
[09:05] <Poromenos> What's a good program for burning CDs and DVDs?
[09:05] <sioux> here frost does not start
[09:05] <savvas> GaiaX11: you'll also need sun java: sudo apt-get install sun-java5-bin sun-java5-jre
[09:05] <psusi> cedd: the boot loader needs installed to the master boot record of the drive rather than in an individual partition
[09:05] <savvas> sioux: it starts for me
[09:05] <lk11mn> psusi Sil is stripe and isw is "group"
[09:05] <pazemlsqdfmoj> is cron turned on by default?
[09:05] <pazemlsqdfmoj> or do i have to activate it somewhere?
[09:05] <psusi> cedd: but I would suggest you use grub, and a smaller /boot... 50-100 megs is sufficient
[09:05] <sioux> savv how you did?
[09:05] <cedd> so it will auto detect /boot sda1 if i say sda
[09:05] <dv_> savvas, aint kazaa very much dead by now?
[09:06] <savvas> sioux: you have to change #!/usr/sh to #!/usr/bash in the script :P
[09:06] <savvas> dv_: gnutella is not kazaa :)
[09:06] <volvoguy> i have RAID questions too, but i'll let these settle down before i add to the confusion. :)
[09:06] <sioux> savv which script?
[09:06] <psusi> cedd: no... it is asking where to install the MBR... that goes in the first sector of the disk... it has nothing to do with where /boot is
[09:06] <yahalom> can someone tell me where i can find the fedora equivalent of etc/sysconfig/network in ubuntu?
[09:06] <fr500> hello
[09:06] <concept10> fredl, the reason is as I expected, they removed the drivers due to the fact that they are now included in the kernel.  but you still should be able to download them somewhere
[09:06] <Poromenos> What's a good program for burning CDs and DVDs?
[09:07] <psusi> lk11mn: which one doesn't show?  the strip or the group?
[09:07] <Tinned_Tuna> Foromenos: K3b
[09:07] <dv_> savvas, IIRC gnutella was a bandwith killer?
[09:07] <quintin> where is the default firefox plugins folder ?
[09:07] <Poromenos> Tinned_Tuna: great, thanks
[09:07] <volvoguy> but anyone feel free to chime in about the server kernel as i continue to google.
[09:07] <fr500> is there a filesystem that can make HDs on other computers appear as part of my local hod?
[09:07] <fr500> HD
[09:07] <quintin> Poromenos: k3b
[09:07] <savvas> sioux / GaiaX11 : when you install frostwire, do: sudo gedit /usr/bin/frostwire
[09:07] <cedd> ok ill try it if it doesnt work ill come back with more details in the error msg
[09:07] <Tinned_Tuna> lol, I can neither spell nor read
[09:07] <quintin> fr500: ehm.  smbmount, nfs, etc, etc
[09:07] <savvas> sioux / GaiaX11 : then change #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bash
[09:07] <fredl> concept10, Hmmm. so if it's included in the kernel now... could it be I'm still using the old module which I built to try and get it to work?
[09:07] <sioux> ok i will
[09:08] <lk11mn> the one i want doesnt show... group (isw)shows up, but stripe(sil) is missing
[09:08] <fr500> quintin: hmm
[09:08] <fr500> not exactly
[09:08] <lk11mn> psusi the one i want doesnt show... group (isw)shows up, but stripe(sil) is missing
[09:08] <notwist> where is the default apache dir? with the .html file that says "apache is installed" and whatever?
[09:08] <fr500> i want them to work as a part of my main partition
[09:08] <quintin> notwist: /var/www
[09:08] <psusi> lk11mn: strange....
[09:08] <notwist> quintin: thanks
[09:08] <quintin> fr500: so mount them wherever.
[09:08] <quintin> where are firefox plugins at ?
[09:09] <psusi> lk11mn: only 2 disks in the stripe?
[09:09] <bieb_work> psusi... the installer has completed, and rebooted... still the same issue.. no boot
[09:09] <concept10> fredl, the problem is that edgy used 2.6.17, they are in the 2.6.18 kernel, I know, I downloaded it the other day
[09:09] <Scorpmoon> how do you know beforehand buying a monitor, if Ubuntu supports it?
[09:09] <fr500> quintin: still not, i know i can mount, i want some disk on a remote pc to appear as it was part of my main HD, like it was one bigger HD. Like LVM ovcr the net or something
[09:09] <concept10> fredl, but try this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185174&highlight=broadcom
[09:09] <foysavas> generally all monitors are supported
[09:09] <Rick-uk> new to this - could someone help me with getting the bbc.co.uk website audio/video to work?  I am running Edubuntu and Firefox.  Plug-ins don't install on thislike they do on Windoze or Mac
[09:09] <lk11mn> psusi dmraid -r shows all 5 disks, 2 in "group" (isw) and 3 in "stripe" (sil)
[09:09] <fredl> concept10, according to http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/: This driver was included into the Linux kernel since 2.6.17-rc2
[09:09] <spamyboy> Pleas anyone click on this link (afiliat): http://www.tufat.com/aff.php?id=3138 (i need more 40 click to purcha one script) Thank you
[09:10] <quintin> fr500: beyond me.
[09:10] <foysavas> support for certain video cards is the issue most the time
[09:10] <fr500> i think gfs had such thing
[09:10] <concept10> fredl, oh
[09:10] <anan> hi, can someone help me please ? Where is the startup programs lists(default) located ?
[09:10] <psusi> bieb_work: which partition did you assign to the root?
[09:10] <Scorpmoon> Does anyone use Mirai DML-519W100 19" widescreen with Ubuntu ?
[09:10] <psusi> lk11mn: and is that information correct?
[09:10] <bieb_work> sda2 is /
[09:10] <concept10> fredl, that forum page says you need the driver cd, but if you read it, it doesnt even use it in the instasll
[09:10] <foysavas> System -> Preferences -> Sessions has the startup stuff for individual users
[09:11] <lk11mn> psusi yeh 100%
[09:11] <volvoguy> seems strange that it's not documented anywhere (that i can find) if the server kernel supports SMP. weird.
[09:11] <psusi> bieb_work: and what does the disks applet on the livecd say about that partition?
[09:11] <fredl> concept10, well the readme for bcm43xx-fwcutter says you need the driver CD too.
[09:11] <anan> thanks foysavas, but i need the file where this list is stored
[09:11] <GaiaX11> savvas dv_ thx a lot. I am downloading frostwire to have a go
[09:11] <bieb_work> hold one sec as I restart with the livecd
[09:11] <psusi> lk11mn: try asking dmraid to activate that set explicitly
[09:11] <concept10> fredl, try this http://boredklink.googlepages.com/wl_apsta.o
[09:12] <bmk789> flash player wont output any sound, is there a simple solution to solving this?
[09:12] <lk11mn> yeh i went dmraid -ay sil (which is supposed to do that)
[09:12] <fredl> concept10, but maybe we're talking apples and oranges and is that forum page for pre 2.6.17 kernels and I'm just having problems because of earlier attempts that mess up the running kernel somehow
[09:12] <grndslm> lvm, anyone?
[09:12] <GaiaX11> dv_: Can mplayer download mp3 songs?
[09:12] <dv_> GaiaX11, not like a p2p app
[09:12] <savvas> GaiaX11: if it's still not running after changing that line in the script, select sun jre: sudo update-alternatives --config java
[09:12] <dv_> but for example if you have an mp3 stream
[09:12] <Poser> Hey! Are there any "Must have" apps for ubuntu I should know about? Like cool applets for the desktop and such?
[09:12] <dv_> you can get it directly with -dumpstream
[09:12] <lk11mn> psusi i tried dmraid -ay sil (which is supposed to do that)
[09:12] <dv_> this way you can also grab mms/rtsp streams
[09:12] <sioux> savv it already was as y mentioned
[09:13] <kamui> anyone have any knowledge on why the synaptic touchpad driver is so unstable after upgrading to edgy?  the mouse cursor sometimes sticks, and occasionally just warps around the screen when I touch the pad
[09:13] <lk11mn> and also with the name quoted from dmraid -r
[09:13] <jsteidl> Hi all!
[09:13] <psusi> lk11mn: and what did dmraid say?
