[04:04] <mrsno> Zynx great, now type sudo envy -t
[04:04] <mrsno> Zynx this will start the envy program, from there you can clean the nvidia drivers (remove) and then install the latest ones automatically
[04:05] <ikonia> octocore: ok, that just means there are no pciids for your hardware yet
[04:05] <spy80us> system architecture depends on processor or OS?
[04:05] <Zynx> mrsno: You are my hero :)
[04:05] <liquiddoom> processor.
[04:05] <Zynx> mrsno: Thanks alot for your time. Really appriciate it :D
[04:05] <spy80us> ok thanks
[04:05] <octocore> ikonia: :/ do i just need to wait for them then?
[04:05] <mrsno> Zynx my welcome :-)
[04:05] <ikonia> octocore: it doesn't matter, its not a bad thing
[04:05] <mrsno> err your welcome even ;]
[04:06] <octocore> ikonia: what is a pciid
[04:06] <jinx_xnij> id of a pci device
[04:07] <ikonia> just an identifier that maps a hardware address to an english desciption
[04:07] <jinx_xnij> a number thats assigned to it
[04:07] <spy80us> when i use the SHMconfig=off to disable touchpad while typing.. the delay to enable is too long.. any help?
[04:07] <anandanbu> How do i change the permissions for my USB pen drive to enable the write support
[04:08] <octocore> ikonia: well ty for the help.
[04:08] <octocore> ikonia: there isnt a way to maunally enter pciid's, or burn them to a disk and install is there?
[04:08] <ikonia> why do you want them ?
[04:09] <ikonia> what does it matteR ?
[04:09] <vonderer> can anyone here help me with mpdscribble, please?
[04:09] <_david> vonderer, whats up?
[04:09] <octocore> ikonia: because ubuntu isnt reading my video card or ethernet card.
[04:09] <octocore> so my max resolution is 800x600 and i cant connect to the internet
[04:09] <ikonia> octocore: pci-id's have nothing to do with that
[04:09] <vonderer> _david: when I install mpdscribble (aptitude install mpdscribble), I get this message: Musicscribble system service not installed
[04:09] <ikonia> octocore: as I said they just map hardware to an english description
[04:10] <_david> vonderer, hmm, I installed mpd + mpdscribble on my RHEL server, so I dont really know :/
[04:10] <octocore> ikonia: oh, well do you know what my problem might be then?
[04:10] <_david> have you tried apt-getting for musicscribble?
[04:10] <ticnailer69> dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem
[04:10] <ikonia> octocore: yes, your video card drivers are probably not the right ones, and your xorg setup is not cnofigured
[04:10] <bad_boy> lol dudes i'm so exited, i'll instal ubuntu in couple of hours:D
[04:10] <Zynx> A easy question :) With the new drivers i am not able to change my resolution to more than 1024x768. Where can i change it? :D
[04:10] <ticnailer69> and I enter it into the teminal and nothing happens
[04:11] <vlt> Hobbsee: Hmm ... I don't get it. I checked the required packages listed on your link (libdvdread3, libdvdcss2, libxine1-ffmpeg). All of these are installed and xine tells me that it's using it ("libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.9 for DVD access") But then "libdvdread: Error cracking CSS key for /VIDEO_TS/VTS_02_1.VOB (0x00013fa6)!!". What did I miss reading your links?
[04:11] <ticnailer69> can anyone tell me what this means?
[04:11] <Hobbsee> vlt: not sure.  it should be working
[04:11] <octocore> ikonia: how may i go about fixing these things?
[04:12] <ikonia> octocore: what video card do you have
[04:13] <Zynx> mrsno: A easy question :) With the new drivers i am not able to change my resolution to more than 1024x768. Where can i change it? :D
[04:13] <octocore> ikonia: it's just the intel integrated one.
[04:13] <ikonia> octocore: ok, so try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and answer the questions on screen
[04:13] <mrsno> Zynx you can either edit the xorg.conf (can be tricky first time) or alternatively, in the gui, open a terminal and run sudo nvidia-settings
[04:14] <Zynx> thanks again :)
[04:14] <mrsno> np :)
[04:14] <samaris> i have problem with my geteway3707 i cant hear any sound
[04:14] <octocore> ikonia: ok i'll try it and come back. ty.
[04:14] <_imran_> if you buy a motherboard, do you have to buy cables/wires to connect it to your pc?
[04:14] <ticnailer69> ok
[04:14] <samaris> some one can help me?
[04:15] <ticnailer69> going to bed:)
[04:15] <ticnailer69> pz
[04:15] <mrsno> _imran_ your case comes with screws to screw it into the case, its not for the faint of heart really
[04:15] <vlt> Hobbsee: What does "CSS/CPPM" mean? That is what the windows tool said about the used encryption/protection mode.
[04:16] <Savage-{> Is there a fix for the Flash 9 images overlapping objects on the web page?
[04:16] <_imran_> mrsno, i was just wandering, because i am busy looking for parts to buid my own pc
[04:16] <extern> I have 2 folders full of pictures. Is there any utility to check which files are exactly the same? The names of the same pictures differ in those two folders
[04:17] <psnel> Why does renaming /etc/rcX.d/S*.mdadm* to /etc/rcX.d/K*.mdadm* NOT prevent mdadm from trying to set up arrays and failing boot ?? (also removed script from /etc/cron.d)
[04:18] <psnel> How do I prevent mdadm form setting up array at boot?
[04:18] <ikonia> psnel: destory the array
[04:18] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: The mb comes with cables to connect the drives, the power supply that comes with the case has wires that plug into the mb you dont need to order cables by themselves
[04:19] <spy80us> any1 know how to view streaming video embedded in firefox
[04:19] <humbolto> how can I make startx not start xterm with it but something else?
[04:19] <dyrne> spy80us: i prefer mplayer package i believe its called mozilla-mplayer
[04:19] <_imran_> thanks Jack_Sparrow , but do you need to buy any seperate plugs/wires when you build a pc?
[04:19] <psnel> ikonia: how? I cant boot (this is knoppix)   -  (i still have working partitions i want to boot to)
[04:20] <ikonia> psnel: sorry, this is ubuntu support, not knoppix support
[04:20] <spy80us> dyrne: i have that but im unable to view.. can u try nba.com and any1 of the videos pls
[04:20] <psnel> ikonia: i know... i'm using koppix to try fix my feisty
[04:20] <abhi> what is best resolution for ubuntu?
[04:20] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: no
[04:20] <ikonia> psnel: just us mdadm to destroy the array
[04:20] <dyrne> spy80us: someone else here will have to. im not on an linux box atm. (work)
[04:21] <acecase> hello
[04:21] <_imran_> what about for harddrives?
[04:21] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: the mb should have the ribbon data cables, the power supply has the power cables
[04:22] <_imran_> Jack_Sparrow, ok cool
[04:22] <pawan> hi
[04:22] <pawan> is wubi and ubuntu not the same
[04:22] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: SInce you are new at this I would suggest a bare bones system.. they are cheap, tested usually assembled
[04:22] <Dante123> hi all....looking to buy a ADSL Modem/Wireless router in one unit. Currently interested in the 3Com OfficeConnect ADSL Wireless 54 Mbps 11g Firewall Router - Wireless router + 4-port switch - DSL - EN, Fast EN, 802.11b, 802.11g.   I run Ubuntu (and Windows XP on kids machine)  Does anyone have an opinion about 3com product line? Do you suggest another brand over them? Feedback is appreciated.
[04:22] <psnel> ikonia: during upgrade to feisty i specified "none" when asked about arrays... its still trying to configure arrays... don't I need to be booted into that OS's root to use mdadm? (this is on "ramdisk" with feisty root under /mnt/hdc1)
[04:23] <_imran_> Jack_Sparrow, what exactly is a bare bones system?
[04:23] <wers> how do I edit .xml files?
[04:23] <ikonia> psnel: mdam does not try to configure or build disks at boot time unless you've specificed arrays
[04:23] <abhi> what is best resolution for ubuntu?
[04:23] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: Look at places like egg or pricewatch and search for bare bones...  No-os and no hard drive
[04:23] <lunaphyte> what is the recommended method for getting dual monitor support to work with an ati firegl v3100?
[04:23] <pawan> i want to install ubuntu
[04:23] <pawan> how
[04:23] <Pici> !install | pawan
[04:23] <ubotu> pawan: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[04:23] <_imran_> Jack_Sparrow, ok
[04:23] <genii> Dante123: Well, frankly i would steer away from 3com. but that is just personal experience with this brand
[04:23] <dyrne> Dante123: id consider a cheaper modem/router and then a wrtg54L depending on what you need
[04:23] <wers> !xml
[04:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xml - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:24] <Pici> wers: Any text editor will do.
[04:24] <wers> how do I edit xml files?
[04:24] <wers> oooh
[04:24] <wers> okay
[04:24] <psnel> ikonia: i typed "none" as per instruction (could've also left blank) of the upgrad dialog.
[04:24] <acecase> has the way that grub uses UID of drives caused problems with VFS syncing (kernel panic at early boot)? I am a far cry from an expert but have compiled around 10 kernels for this system and I know I have my IDE chipset and filesystem information correct. I have also used my old (working) .config from 2.6.20 and still getting kernel panic "not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
[04:24] <pawan> can ubuntu access files from ntfs and fat32 filesystem
[04:24] <psnel> ikonia: /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf seems to have no values, only headers
[04:24] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: yes
[04:25] <ikonia> psnel: that seems fine, so whats the problem
[04:25] <acecase> pawan, yes it can do anything with fat32 and limited ntfs support
[04:25] <pawan> i have g: drive which is 48 gb and it has ntfs file system
[04:25] <pawan> i want to setup ubuntu on that drive
[04:25] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: if you want to write to the ntfs then look at ntfs-3g
[04:25] <_david> if you want to install to the drive you must format
[04:26] <pawan> format to what type
[04:26] <genii> Dante123: dyrne makes a point about using a separate modem then a wrt54, the wrt series is well supported for linux. If you need some all in one type solution however, perhaps look at SpeedStream wireless modem/router series. this is what Sympatico and others use
[04:26] <Pici> pawan: ext3
[04:26] <acecase> ntfs, as far as what i read, has full read support in kernel 2.6.2* but can only write to existing files if the length of the file isn't changed
[04:26] <psnel> ikonia: at boot i get err: "mdadm: No devices listed in conf file were found"
[04:26] <pawan> the whole 48gb
[04:26] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: You cant install ubuntu on ntfs.. you nee to leave unallocated space or create ext3 partition or another linux type
[04:26] <stinger_au> yo
[04:26] <ikonia> psnel: then what ?
[04:26] <Jack_Sparrow> !ntfs-3g
[04:26] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[04:27] <stinger_au> Question: apache2 and php don't seem to be working together.. when i try to open a php file it wants to save it to disk ?
[04:27] <ikonia> stinger_au: there is a guide ont he ubuntu wiki to show you how to configure apache/php
[04:27] <pawan> if i go for wubi
[04:27] <acecase> ubotu, full read/write? safe?
[04:27] <ikonia> pawan: stop going on about wubi !
[04:27] <ikonia> pawan: we DON'T support it
[04:27] <acecase> :)
[04:27] <psnel> ikonia: also anoter err: "Alert! /dev/disk/by-uid/{...} does not exist" (cont...)
[04:27] <Pici> acecase: ubotu is a bot.
[04:27] <Jack_Sparrow> acecase: ntfs write is not considered stable.. and ubotu is a bot
[04:28] <ikonia> psnel: that shouldn't stop you booting
[04:28] <Jack_Sparrow> acecase: wrong
[04:28] <ikonia> psnel: if your system is still using raw disk - that should just be a warning
[04:28] <Jack_Sparrow> meant to say IS considered stab'e
[04:28] <pawan> so i should uninstall wubi and fresh install ubuntu
[04:28] <acecase> :) yeah he just told me to shut up basicly
[04:28] <ikonia> pawan: thats up to you
[04:28] <mrsno> Jack_Sparrow ntfs-3g is considered as stable as it will get really, but everyone should decide for themselves after reading their website
[04:28] <wers> I'm trying to edit my %gconf.xml. whenever I open it with a text editor, it is blank. should it really be that way coz its not blank if I open it with a web browser
[04:28] <psnel> ikonia: changed grub "root={}" to "root=/dev/hdc1", then got same err, with "Alert! /dev/hdc1 does not exist"
[04:28] <Jack_Sparrow> mrsno: I know. typing too fast
[04:28] <Pici> wers: use gconf-editor to edit gconf.
[04:28] <mrsno> :-)
[04:29] <Jack_Sparrow> mrsno: that was supposed to say is NOW not is NOT
[04:29] <ikonia> psnel: does hdc1 exist ?
[04:29] <dbzdeath[lappy] > hey i'm  having a lot of trouble getting wpa2 working with wpa_supplicant i have a ipw2200 could someone please help me?
[04:29] <mrsno> ahh i see :) nm
[04:29] <psnel> ikonia: then... Dropping to shell (very limited, not raw disk.. 'initramfs')
[04:29] <jinx_xnij> Whoever answered that music question, i appreciate it.
[04:30] <Jack_Sparrow> mrsno: I still wont do it, I keep a fat32.. I dont like either os writing to the other os home partition
[04:30] <psnel> ikonia: yes, I can mount it in knoppix... where i tried to disable it by renaming /etc/rc*.d/S*mdadm* .../K*...
[04:30] <acecase> so does anyone know if this is a common problem or if I am missing somthing? My suspect at this point is the way that grub is using UID of drive for root=   The default install will boot fine but it's using initrd and my kernel of course isn't
[04:30] <psnel> ikonia: sorry, "/mnt/hdc1/etc/..."
[04:31] <devilsreject> hello all
[04:31] <ikonia> very odd
[04:31] <pawan> i have two other os also installed
[04:31] <_imran_> Jack_Sparrow, do you need to build in a modem into your pc?
[04:31] <pawan> winxp and windows 2008 server
[04:31] <pawan> will it mess up
[04:31] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: ONly if you need a modem
[04:31] <psnel> ikonia: i was hoping that would stop the service at * runlevels during boot
[04:32] <devilsreject> for some reason "sound converter" isn't working can someone please tell me the command to convert .wav into .mp3 in terminal???
[04:32] <_imran_> Jack_Sparrow, i have an external modem
[04:32] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: If you are going to use a dialup I strongly suggest an external as they are easier to setup..
[04:32] <devilsreject> the file is on my desktop my username is devilsreject and the filename is theredealt1.wav
[04:32] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: You should be good to go.
[04:32] <_david> what is this "Dial up"?
[04:32] <psnel> ikonia: also removed periodic array-checking script from /mnt/etc/cron.d/mdadm
[04:32] <ikonia> psnel: mdadm builds arrays without an init script
[04:32] <_imran_> Jack_Sparrow, i have got an ADSL external
[04:33] <ikonia> psnel: mdadm is build into the kernel (not the binary)
[04:33] <devilsreject> Jack_Sparro -- any idea on the command for wav to mp3 in terminal
[04:33] <_imran_> Jack_Sparrow, which mb is better...AMD or Intel
[04:33] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: That isnt a dial-up.. you should be fine
[04:33] <psnel> ikonia: why's there init script then?
[04:33] <devilsreject> intel
[04:33] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: This is the wrong room for this discussion...
[04:33] <devilsreject> well it depends on which u get
[04:33] <ikonia> psnel: for things like monitoring
[04:33] <psnel> ikonia: how do i tell kernel to cut that $h1t out
[04:33] <acecase> _david, :) the tounge of these foreiners is abstract. They speak of strange /dev of which noone understands
[04:33] <OuZo> !font
[04:33] <ubotu> Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[04:33] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: Those are not mb's those are cpu's
[04:34] <psnel> ikonia: ohh. hmm
[04:34] <ikonia> psnel: you can start by not using bad language, there is no reason for it
[04:34] <_david> acecase, :)
[04:34] <_imran_> Jack_Sparrow, can you tel me a room for that type of discussions
[04:34] <psnel> ikonia: sorry, no offence. meant to joke
[04:34] <_david> gah
[04:34] <_david> cant find my ubuntu server disc
[04:34] <devilsreject> anybody even know if its possible to convert .wav to .mp3 in terminal??
[04:34] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: Not really...  You might try #Mepis
[04:34] <ikonia> psnel: run fdisk on your disk see if any of the partion types are set to "Raid auto detect"
[04:34] <_david> anyone can find it for me?
[04:35] <psnel> ikonia: one mo'
[04:35] <rustalot> Where can I find the Ubuntu Live keynote by Mark Shuttleworth?
[04:35] <_david> bugger
[04:35] <Jack_Sparrow> _david: Bottom left drawer, under the playboy mags
[04:36] <_david> just found my ubuntu server cd, its got a watermark all over it :(
[04:36] <_david> which means no ready by servery
[04:36] <wers> I'm trying to change the colors of libnotify, should they be changed by the gtk_color_scheme entry in gconf?
[04:36] <Jack_Sparrow> _david: That wont hurt, wash it off, dry it and use it
[04:36] <_david> Jack_Sparrow, its underneath
[04:36] <bullgard4> /usr/share/doc/tracker-search-tool/README.gz section 'Tracker And Nautilus Search' writes: "Once you have installed Tracker and have some indexed contents, you should now compile Nautilus which should auto detect that tracker is installed and automatically compile in tracker support." How can I do this Nautilus compilation?
[04:36] <_david> what you get from leaving CDs on the windowsill :P
[04:37] <_david> meh
[04:37] <_david> redownloading time :P
[04:37] <Jack_Sparrow> _david: Still no problem, bottom is even better..
[04:37] <wers> !libnotify
[04:37] <Jack_Sparrow> _david: Seriously
[04:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libnotify - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:37] <_david> Jack_Sparrow, underneath, not on the bottom, i.e. between the layers
[04:37] <_david> cheap cdrs :P
[04:37] <Jack_Sparrow> _david: Ok, that is a prob..
[04:37] <_david> never mind
[04:37] <acecase> I'm seeing loads of people with the same problem (correct kernel config and kernel panic compaining about (0,0)) but I'm not seeing any fixes
[04:37] <_david> its not quite 4pm yet :P
[04:38] <acecase> I blame grub
[04:38] <_david> I blame your node
[04:38] <stinger_au> ikonia i have found some it said to make sure php5 is installed which it is
[04:39] <stinger_au> ikonia any other ideas why its not picing up php files ?
[04:39] <acecase> my node?
[04:39] <psnel> ikonia: fdisk /dev/hda ; fdisk /dev/hdc  -- i can see partitions ('p'), how would I check  for "Raid auto detect"
[04:40] <_david> lol, was just gonna shutdown the wrong server
[04:41] <_david> forgot my internets goes through that one :P
[04:41] <genii> psnel Partition type defines raid autodetect
[04:42] <genii> hex, fd
[04:43] <bullgard4> Why do exist two directories /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.20/Documentation/ and /usr/share/doc/linux-doc-2.6.20//Documentation instead of one?
[04:44] <genii> bullgard4: Because not everyone has the source code directory populated but everyone has the shared doc directory
[04:45] <pawan> hi
[04:45] <syst3m> Hi, how can I make the partition size smaller to create a new one for ubuntu? I cant get qparted to install in aptitude
[04:46] <pawan> i want to install ubuntu on 19 gb fat32 partition
[04:46] <pawan> its totally empty
[04:47] <pawan> how to install
[04:47] <bullgard4> genii: I do not understand your answer very well: "Everyone has the shared doc directory." If this is true, why is the other provided in addition?
[04:47] <genii> pawan if it's totally empty to start with, why do you want it to be fat32?
[04:47] <pawan> then
[04:47] <psnel> genii: sorry, I can't determin  "raid autodetect" from the output, can you may be look at it here.. http://pastebin.com/m33d105f9
[04:48] <triden1> pawan: Ubuntu has to be installed on emptyspace, it can't be installed in a allready formatted space. Format over that space.
[04:48] <pawan> but on other drive there are other os such as winxp and windows 2008 server
[04:48] <pawan> will it affect other os
[04:49] <genii> bullgard4 When you install the kernel source code, you get the second document in /usr/src directory. But even without having that source code on a clean install you get the default documentation in the shared documentation area.
[04:49] <triden1> pawan: Not if you only use that space... and setup grub at the end.
[04:49] <nimbo> oi where can i find the source code to "killall" ?
[04:49] <genii> psnel Looking, back shortly
[04:49] <psnel> ikonia: can you determine "raid autodetect" from this fdisk output? http://pastebin.com/m33d105f9
[04:50] <arang> question: how do i find out what process or program is holding a mounting device from unmounting? (command line please)
[04:50] <nomad111> does anyone use eclipse in here
[04:50] <nimbo> nomad111: yeah sometimes
[04:50] <pawan> what type should i format and how much space
[04:50] <nomad111> nimbo: are u using the latest version
[04:50] <syst3m> is there an alternate partition software to make partitions smaller like qparted?
[04:50] <nomad111> 3.3
[04:50] <Pici> nimbo: killall is part of the psmisc package.  apt-get source psmisc
[04:50] <nomad111> or europa as it says for me
[04:50] <genii> psnel: You don't have any raid autodetect partitions. they are straight linux eg:partition type 83, not partition type FD
[04:51] <nimbo> thx pici
[04:51] <Pici> syst3m: gparted
[04:51] <nimbo> nomad111: ah i remember i had problems with it, so i downloaded it manually from eclipse.org
[04:51] <syst3m> pici: thx :)
[04:51] <zero-1> I just installed Ubuntu on my laptop but I cant get fglxr driver to work in it

[04:53] <Pici> NekoKun: grep foobar /directory/to/search/in/*
[04:53] <_david> ATI sucks :P
[04:53] <hinogi> but if i enter vor example games like a derivate of quake engine or enemy territory or such
[04:54] <hinogi> textures are messing up flashing and blinking

[04:58] <usr13> Is there a way to temporarily hide or remove the bar at bottom?  (I think it's called the "taskbar" - right?)
[04:58] <nomad111> usr13: right click on the bar and select properties
[04:58] <usr13> OR just somehow get it out of the way for a while?
[04:58] <psnel> genii: /mnt/hdc1/dev/md0..15
[04:58] <usr13> nomad111, O
[04:58] <triden1> usr13: Right click, preferences*, enable hiding.
[04:58] <nomad111> usr13: select show hide buttons
[04:58] <nomad111> usr13: or autohide
[04:59] <NekoKun> Ok... regarding the find... I need to make some mass replacing of text... I was trying something with SED but Im not going as well I was expected... can someone suggest me a way? let's say, replace all bar for foo_bar?
[04:59] <genii> psnel: So then no mdX entries in /dev but in the /mnt suddirs??

[05:00] <pawan> how much space to allocate to ubuntu from 19gb fat32 partition
[05:01] <triden1> pawan: How much you feel, I personally like more than 2 GBs.
[05:01] <usr13> nomad111, Ok, thanks very much.
[05:01] <psnel> genii: under /mnt/ only hda1&2, hdc1 and hdb (primary slave: cdrom)
[05:01] <xanith> Anyone got a second to help me out with an ubuntu-server problem?
[05:01] <pawan> i fell 5gb then
[05:01] <triden1> xanith: Sure.
[05:02] <xanith> Okay, I work for a Web Development company, and we have 2 servers running linux
[05:02] <gym> what
[05:02] <xanith> Just recently, the servers started displaying apostrophes as a black diamond with a white question mark in it
[05:02] <genii> psnel So this is wrong? "<psnel> genii: /mnt/hdc1/dev/md0..15"
[05:02] <xanith> We've never had this problem before, and these websites have been running for months with no changes
[05:02] <neverblue> xanith, can you do the question all in one line?
[05:02] <Davy_Jones> how can i tell gaim to go to the next tab in row when i press ctrl+tab and not the next active tab?
[05:02] <triden1> xanith: Sounds like a problem with your fonts...
[05:03] <psnel> genii: yes. there's no such entries
[05:03] <_Lucretia_> to install plone, the docs say to install plone and plone-site - I get an error in apt-get stating that plone doesn't exist - I'm on Ubuntu64-bit
[05:03] <xanith> Just recently, the servers started displaying apostrophes as a black diamond with a white question mark in it
[05:03] <xanith> We've never had this problem before, and these websites have been running for months with no changes
[05:03] <xanith> The sites are using charset UTF-8 as they always have been. I don't know why this problem all of a sudden?
[05:03] <psnel> genii: wait...
[05:03] <freepenguin> excuse somebody know why this site is off-line since somedays? http://amsn.lnxteam.org
[05:03] <neverblue> xanith, in which application  are you using?
[05:04] <triden1> xanith: Try re-installing the font packages? I personally don't run the server....
[05:04] <lunaphyte> ubuntuforums says "MergedFB only works with the open sources drivers (mga, ati, , which lack direct-rendering support for many Radeon models"  - how do i know which drivers i'm using?
[05:04] <xanith> An example of it's doing can be viewed here, http://www.mediathoroughbredgroup.com/blog/index.php/category/horse-racing-trivia/
[05:04] <neverblue> freeemind, we would not be able to tell that for you
[05:04] <xanith> neverblue: it does it in every browser, IE, Firefox and Opera
[05:04] <psnel> genii: under /mnt/hdc1/dev/ there is md0..15
[05:04] <acecase> the old way to use the root= flag in grub was just root=hd(0,0) rite? assuming my drive is first master IDE.
[05:04] <_Lucretia_> nd feisty
[05:04] <neverblue> xanith, its happening because your running apache?
[05:04] <psnel> genii: but aren't they just "placeholders"
[05:05] <genii> psnel: OK. Please use pastebin website to paste the contents of your file /etc/fstab
[05:05] <riaal> Anyone here happend to have a "new" 12" laptop running ubntu?
[05:05] <triden1> neverblue: Well, I believe running the server needs apache. :P
[05:05] <_Lucretia_> is anyone running plone?
[05:05] <dennisharrison> _Lucretia_, I use plone a lot
[05:05] <xanith> neverblue: how else would the web server work, every server is running apache that i know of, and they've never had these problems before until recently for some reason
[05:05] <nomad111> hey all how do i set the default jdk to use
[05:05] <nomad111> i want to use sun's one not gcj
[05:05] <_Lucretia_> dennisharrison: on which platform?
[05:06] <moonlite_> xanith: i'd guess that the problem is someone edited the pages and saved them as iso-8859-1
[05:06] <neverblue> xanith, when you said 'running stuff' on those servers, that could mean alot
[05:06] <dennisharrison> _Lucretia_, on a computer, AND a phone :)  What do you mean?
[05:06] <neverblue> xanith, excuse me for clarifying
[05:06] <moonlite_> the pages look ok when you change the encoding to 8859-1
[05:06] <genii> work, AFK
[05:06] <_Lucretia_> dennisharrison: fiesty? dapper? 32 or 64 bit?
[05:07] <Pitel> hi, i've a small problem -- some icons in gnome menu are missing, the looks like empty windows, but on my laptop, all icons looks nice. what can i do?
[05:07] <xanith> moonlite_: I do most of the coding here, and I know that I always hardcode UTF-8 and XHTML 1.0 Strict
[05:07] <dennisharrison> _Lucretia_, I am headed out, I have installed and used zope/plone in many versions on many different hardware/distro (even windows twice) combinations
[05:07] <moonlite_> xanith: what dou you mean by "hardcode"?
[05:07] <_Lucretia_> dennisharrison: ok, the docs say install plone, but it doesn't exist
[05:07] <dennisharrison> _Lucretia_, my public server is rhel3 though
[05:07] <psnel> genii: http://pastebin.com/m5a93a50e
[05:07] <dennisharrison> _Lucretia_, plone.org
[05:07] <triden1> xanith: Never even heard of that, did you install anything recently on either server? And, also, what are you using to write stuff?
[05:07] <dennisharrison> _Lucretia_, and #plone
[05:07] <dennisharrison> see yall later
[05:07] <_Lucretia_> through deb's
[05:07] <xanith> moonlite_: I specifically input to use charset UTF-8 and specify that document type to XHTML 1.0 Strict with the W3C link...
[05:08] <dennisharrison> _Lucretia_, naw don't do the debs, install from source, much better
[05:08] <xanith> triden1: I do all my coding for xhtml and css in notepad...
[05:08] <moonlite_> could it be that the page that you are showing fetches text from a database that is iso8859-1 encoded then?
[05:08] <acecase> lol I was going to get away from all the make-kpkg crap and just do it manualy (make && make modules_install) and add an entry to grub.conf but grub.conf is menu.lst now and I don't remember how to specify the root the old way
[05:08] <_Lucretia_> dennisharrison: ok, what about zope tho?
[05:08] <moonlite_> xanith: does notepad save as utf8?
[05:09] <moonlite_> i'm pretty sure it encodes as latin-1
[05:09] <genii> psnel: Ok, looking
[05:09] <triden1> xanith: Notepad on windows? A fine kettle of fish that brings up.
[05:09] <acecase> im thinking maby i should get back to gentoo
[05:09] <xanith> notepad doesn't save formatting, and when you save as an html document, it saves the code as strictly what you typed in
[05:09] <xanith> it's the most barebone way that you could ever code
[05:10] <triden1> xanith: Yes, but when you send the files, there could be a mishmatch of charater sets even though you specifically set them.
[05:10] <xanith> well i mean i guess i could code in vi or nano.. but they dont use linux on our normal pcs here at work :(
[05:10] <dyrne> acecase: debian maybe. i wouldnt use gentoo :)
[05:10] <liquiddoom> xanith: the most barebone way would be echo 'code' >> file
[05:10] <nomad111> !jdk
[05:10] <acecase> xanith, you can get xvim for windows
[05:10] <triden1> xanith: http://desktopondemand.com if you don't program top secret things.
[05:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jdk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:10] <nomad111> !sdk
[05:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sdk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:10] <moonlite_> xanith: you don't seem to understand what i mean. Notepad doesn't offer you the possibility to encode the file you're saving as utf-8, only iso8859-1
[05:10] <nomad111> !java
[05:10] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[05:11] <genii> psnel: Nothing to explain it there :(  (was looking for md devices)
[05:11] <xanith> moonlite_: some of these sites are also programed in dreamweaver, not using the visual, visual tab is a BIG NO NO here, we always use the coding tab...
[05:11] <xanith> moonlite_: and these sites as well have this problem
[05:11] <xanith> but reguardless, i don't think it has anything to do with the files themselves, because they have worked fine for months, all of a sudden the files (unchanged) started showing this weird symbol
[05:11] <genii> psnel Maybe you have some other HD which has partition types of FD (raid autodetect) ?
[05:12] <moonlite_> xanith: well then dreamweaver might also be encoding the pages as latin1?
[05:12] <xanith> it has to be within the server that is hosting them
[05:12] <acecase> dyrne, I don't know about the whole debian system. I'm sure it's great but I don't know how to do the basic crap with it. I know how to build a kernel for this box under gentoo because it just uses the basics. grub doesn't use grub.conf anymore but menu.lst is the same format
[05:12] <xanith> because i've copied one of the sites to my remote server for my personal website, and the problem was no longer there
[05:12] <xanith> i don't know what my hosting company does differently than we do
[05:12] <psnel> genii: I used to get a boot error about "dev/disk/by-uuid/{...}", after changing grub to root=/dev/hdc1... error also changed
[05:13] <moonlite_> xanith: you should probably ask the hosting company then. :)
[05:13] <psnel> genii: where's the mapping from /hdc1 to the UUID we see in fstab?
[05:13] <acecase> psnel, thank you. you just answered my Q :) I couldn't remember that
[05:13] <xanith> lol, i doubt that they'd be willing to just give up that kind of information, or even pay their admins to talk to me about it lol
[05:13] <Dante123> thanks for input on 3com products etc.  I had a speedstream 6300 with sympatico and it worked nicely.  I'll have to see how much they are.  3com has a good three year warranty with that particular product but I will consider others as well.
[05:13] <Steven_> Hi, is there someone who fixes bugs on launchpad?
[05:14] <IceLink> is there a program i can compress .ogg-files with?
[05:14] <triden1> Steven_: Well, depends on what bug you are talking about.
[05:14] <genii> psnel The system should be doing this automatically with blkid to decide the uuid of the / system
[05:14] <Pici> Steven_: A bug with launchpad itself, or an Ubuntu bug on Launchpad?
[05:15] <Steven_> and ubungu "bug"
[05:15] <humbolto> alternate installer is unable to mount my cdrom drive!
[05:15] <Steven_> i've found a "bug" with checksum offloading with my network card, drivery sky2
[05:15] <xanith> /channels
[05:15] <humbolto> the CDR is /dev/scd0 at a firewire port
[05:15] <Davy_Jones> !pidgin
[05:15] <ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.
[05:15] <humbolto> I can mount it by hand but bootstrap won't work
[05:15] <psnel> genii: /mnt/hdc1/dev/disk/by-uuid/ does not even exist, why would grub look for it there?
[05:15] <Pici> Steven_: Did you log a bug?
[05:16] <moonlite_> xanith: umm what information? You have a problem with their servers all of a sudden not showing your pages like they should. Ofcourse you should get help, or otherwise your hosting company isn't worrth much.
[05:16] <acecase> and that WAS it. :) just as i suspected. it was the way grub was using UID for the root=. changed it to root=/dev/hda2 and poof i'm up
[05:16] <Xenocide> is anyone able to help me with a simple shell script?
[05:16] <EoF> Hi
[05:16] <acecase> psnel, thank you again. without meening to you answered a question that noone else could.
[05:16] <Pici> Xenocide: Perhaps, whats up?
[05:16] <wbadger> Xenocide, maybe #bash will be more helpful
[05:16] <Steven_> Pici, log? if i've reported it?
[05:16] <genii> psnel /mnt/hdc1/<anything> has nothing to do with uuid mappings
[05:16] <triden1> !ask | Xenocide
[05:17] <xanith> moonlite_: lol no no, ok we have servers here that we use for offering hosting to our clients... because we do web development. our servers have the issue, when i moved one of our sites to my personal server that i have through another hosting company for my personal portfolio, the problem was solved. i don't know what they are doing that we aren't...
[05:17] <EoF> I want to buy a Matrox DualHead2Go but I would like to know first if it's possible to install it on Ubuntu
[05:17] <ubotu> Xenocide: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:17] <psnel> acecase: glad i did't meen to :-)
[05:17] <sharperguy> anyone know how i can mount a .bin disk image file?
[05:17] <genii> !iso
[05:17] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[05:17] <triden1> sharperguy: .bin is a diskimage? Since when? .dmg and .iso are all of the standard ones I know.
[05:17] <Xenocide> well i am trying to prase arguments from the command line, and i am able to get the last argument, but i cna't get the second to last argument
[05:18] <Shoopuf> Anyone here have a CMEDIA onboard sound card and have trouble with some programs with sound?
[05:18] <genii> sharperguy: Same as iso method listed above
[05:18] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, what is the problem you have?
[05:18] <Steven_> Pici, i've found a "bug", (something need to get fixed, or card blacklisted from checksum offloading).. i need to report it, wich package should I use? (linux-source?)
[05:18] <acecase> now the question is, why screw with something that works when there is no benifit? dpkg or kpkg, whichever sets that, is doing no good
[05:18] <xanith> triden1: .bin is a disk image file, but normally needs a .cue file to execute it properly?
[05:18] <EoF> anybody knows if it's possible to configure the Matrox dualHead2Go under ubuntu? There's windows and MAC drivers but i cannot find nothing for linux
[05:18] <JC_Denton_> has anyone gotten battlefield42 to work with cedega?
[05:18] <moonlite_> xanith: oh ok. You'll have to go through some trial and error-process then i suppose. Good luck!
[05:18] <Pici> Steven_: Yes. But check launchpad first, there are alot of sky2 driver bugs logged.
[05:19] <triden1> Steven_: You don't have to use a package, someone can some in and label it correctly later. (That's the lazy trident way of doing it.)
[05:19] <EoF> I don't want to be a Vista slave
[05:19] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: on our servers, just recently sites started displaying apostrophes as black diamonds with question marks in them..
[05:19] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: nothing was changed, it just happened all of a sudden, and we don't know why.
[05:19] <psnel> genii: yes, but the error (when booting into hdc1) was about there not being any /dev/disk/by-uid/{..} , theres not even a /dev/disk/
[05:19] <reverseblade> is it necessary to open a terminal for ".profile" file to run, or logging into a gnome/KDE session is suffcient ?
[05:19] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: you can see an example of what it's doing here, http://www.mediathoroughbredgroup.com/blog/index.php/category/horse-racing-trivia/
[05:19] <sharperguy> genii, it says i need to specify a filesytem type
[05:19] <Davy_Jones> EoF: i'm afraid you don't have the choice sometimes
[05:19] <Steven_> Pici, triden1: tnx
[05:20] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, any errors in your logs? It sounds like an encoding issue, e.g. you're using the wrong ISO version
[05:20] <orange__> I try to download installing flashplayer 9 tar gz and then ./flashplayer-installer and i get x86_64 is not supported
[05:20] <EoF> yes i think so
[05:20] <EoF> :'(
[05:20] <genii> sharperguy Is it some dos bootdisk image, or some cdrom image?
[05:20] <sharperguy> genii, its a cdrom
[05:20] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: we're using UTF-8, but what logs are you referring to? apache?
[05:20] <genii> sharperguy then use -t iso9660   as the filesystem type
[05:20] <sharperguy> ok
[05:21] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, yeah, but seeing it now, I don't think that will be in apapche logs - though ofc worth taking a look.
[05:21] <Pici> orange__: Thats because x86_64 isnt supported by the macromedia.
[05:21] <Jack_Sparrow> orange__: Flash.. 64bit... and the instructions say it is supported for 64?  Where?
[05:21] <Pici> !flash64 | orange__ check this out
[05:21] <ubotu> orange__ check this out: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[05:21] <EoF> I don't want to use never a Vista system. But isn't possible to aquire a laptop without it. And I'm ready to use fully ubuntu (no grub ini) but I need to setup 2 external screens to my laptop
[05:21] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, it doesn't appear to be just apostrophes actually - unless you have random apostrophes.
[05:21] <Alkaron> *help* wanted
[05:21] <sharperguy> genii, bad fs type :(
[05:21] <triden1> Pici: It's adobe now. :P
[05:21] <Pici> triden1: Er, I knew that.  :p
[05:22] <EoF> With the docking station (has 2 vga outs) isn't possible
[05:22] <Pici> !ask | Alkaron
[05:22] <ubotu> Alkaron: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:22] <genii> psnel That /dev/disk/by-uuid   thing is a way to find the uuid of a drive. but now is used the command blkid instead.
[05:22] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: I think it's actually apostrophes and hyphens maybe?
[05:22] <triden1> EoF: Maybe you should try a liveCD first and see if you can prod it to work.
[05:22] <genii> sharperguy If it's a DVD then use -t udf
[05:22] <Davy_Jones> EoF: there are laptops that ships with fedora
[05:22] <fluffles> hey guys, im trying to install 7.04. when manually partitioning i chose to use XFS, but it will only create a partition of 39GB large - no bigger (my volume is 1.75TB) -- what am i doing wrong?
[05:22] <EoF> and I'm searching the other way. Matrox has a great product, but not compatible with linux
[05:22] <Lunar_Lamp> Hyphens possibly, yes, but look at the end of the line "the white carnation is the official belmont flower" there is one there.
[05:22] <EoF> yes
[05:22] <sharperguy> genii, it isnt a dvd, and that didnt work either
[05:22] <psnel> genii: ok. new way of doing things
[05:23] <Alkaron> Ok!.. I downloaded the LIVE CD from ubuntu.com and it boots fine on my stationary PC .. but when using it on my LAPTOP (Celeron based) I just get an error message stating Cant access tty; job controll turned off ..
[05:23] <EoF> but if matrox not works under linux I don't want it
[05:23] <Davy_Jones> my Maxtor external hard drive works with linux
[05:23] <Davy_Jones> oh, matrox
[05:23] <Alkaron> and then I get a CLI-like prompt displaying (initramfs)
[05:23] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, also, it appears to be jus tthat page - check out the source.
[05:23] <psnel> genii: so, any idea on how to disable raid?
[05:23] <chimp_rex> i just installed beryl on my ubuntu feisty...i checked out the settings manager and found the <SUPER> key...what's a <SUPER> key, by the way. (pardon my ignorance)

[05:23] <triden1> chimp_rex: Windows key.
[05:23] <abo> can anyone point me to the guide to install wireless cards in ubuntu?
[05:23] <Pici> chimp_rex: The super key is your windows key.
[05:23] <Davy_Jones> chimp_rex: is the win key
[05:24] <chimp_rex> oh. thanks! triden1
[05:24] <Prophezy> hi there :)

[05:24] <Prophezy> how r you in here ?
[05:24] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, the marker is in the SOURCE code of the page, hehee - someone has most likely edited the file in a dodgy editor :-)
[05:24] <Alkaron> hello?
[05:24] <Davy_Jones> but why is it super?
[05:24] <Stormx2> Ah I'm getting tired of this. Whenever nautilus crashes, it goes into "uninteruptable" mode, and won't die. I can't open another copy of nautilus either. Any ideas?
[05:24] <triden1> Davy_Jones: Because windows is a trademark?
[05:24] <Davy_Jones> does it fly?
[05:24] <genii> psnel Frustratingly, no. Since you have no raid devices in /etc/fstab, and no raid definition file in /etc/raid/raidtab
[05:24] <markzor> can anyone help me with my problem, details at this thread on the community forums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=507664
[05:24] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: Yea I know the source code shows them that way, but that file when viewed locally (the file that was uploaded to the server) does not have those characters, the server views them that way, and the source code shows them that way
[05:24] <markzor> thanks
[05:24] <chimp_rex> yeah, why is it super?
[05:24] <genii> psnel As well as no discernable autodetect raid partitions
[05:25] <Pici> chimp_rex: because they needed a good name for another meta-key.
[05:25] <chimp_rex> it has the windows logo on, and it's called super. :-)
[05:25] <bullgard4> In  http://tinyurl.com/2vy5ul FUNCTION: acpi_evaluate_object: What is meant with "find and evaluate the given object"?
[05:25] <markzor> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=507664 have a look and leave any help or suggestions on the thread, thanks
[05:25] <Davy_Jones> because a cape is stamped on it and it looks like super man's cape.. so they called it the super key
[05:25] <chimp_rex> ok, thanks again.
[05:25] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: and these files haven't been changed in months... and it's not only that site, it's more than one site on the server that all started showing things this way at once...
[05:25] <psnel> genii: can't we just tell the kernel to not use raid?
[05:25] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, hmm, where re you viewing the file locally? via a local apache install? What happens if you login to the server and edit them out?
[05:25] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, perhaps something has become corrupted?
[05:25] <triden1> !repeat | markzor
[05:25] <ubotu> markzor: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[05:26] <genii> sharperguy: Then the image is not some standard cdrom image file and you likely need to convert it then to something like iso before it is usable
[05:26] <Prophezy> can anyone recommend a similar software like Dreamweaver for Ubuntu?
[05:26] <bagualas> Why I can't listen two things at the same time? Like a video on Youtube and xmms? Using the onboard nvidia sound

[05:26] <ubotu> The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[05:26] <Alkaron> hmmm..
[05:26] <Pici> bullgard4: This might a question better suited to #ubuntu-devel or possibly #ubuntu-kernel
[05:26] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: Yes, viewing the file locally (as i created it) does not have those characters.
[05:26] <Davy_Jones> Prophezy: Nvu
[05:26] <Alkaron> I guess there are too many people in here and too many questions pending
[05:26] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: and that's my question what could've become corrupt or what could i change to get things back to they way they were
[05:26] <sharperguy> genii, ok
[05:26] <Davy_Jones> !Nvu | Prophezy
[05:26] <ubotu> Prophezy: nvu is a WYSIWYG and code dual-function HTML editor for easily creating web pages.  The original developer is working on a full rewrite; meanwhile, another is doing bugfixes.  It is not in the Ubuntu repos for Feisty Fawn, but add your name to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WaitingForNvuFeisty to be notified when packages are available.  See also !html.
[05:26] <reverseblade> Prophezy, tried dreamviewer itself with wine ?
[05:26] <markzor> yep
[05:26] <psnel> genii: maybe theres some other "mapping" in the blkid mechanism for UUID that includes raid? something not specified in /etc/fstab
[05:26] <Alkaron> !tty
[05:26] <ubotu> To get to the tty terminals 1-6, use the keystroke ctrl + alt + F1-F6 respectively (Alt+F7 will get you back to your graphical login).
[05:26] <bullgard4> Pici: But I am no ubuntu-developer.
[05:26] <markzor> far too many questions
[05:27] <Prophezy> Davy thanks i will try that one
[05:27] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, hmm, you could try reuploading the original and seeing if that fixes it,  if it does it's likely just the file itself that's corrupt.
[05:27] <Pici> bullgard4: But you're asking a programming question..
[05:27] <Davy_Jones> Alkaron: there are far more people that ask than people that contribute
[05:27] <triden1> markzor: Hm, it dosen't sound like total toast, but, try to get your data out of there and then do what the responder said.
[05:27] <Alkaron> Davy_Jones: seems like it
[05:27] <Prophezy> Ubutu i will try yours to :) thanks alot
[05:27] <Alkaron> Unf..
[05:27] <markzor> ill leave it to you guys but whenever you have time id appreciate it if someone could look at my situation

[05:27] <bullgard4> Pici: Thank you for your suggestion. I will give it a try.
[05:27] <genii> psnel: The only other thing offhand which comes to mind is that one of the other hard drives has some partitions which are the "araid autodetect" partition type. Or possibly in grub configuration some remnant raid thing
[05:27] <Prophezy> i can
[05:27] <triden1> markzor: Try getting your data out, and just hold on a bit.

[05:31] <acecase> I just got my kernel together and booted and I only have 5 modules set to load but for some reason ubuntu in a very Windows like fashion has decided for me to load a whole host of other modules for which I have NO dependencies.
[05:32] <berent> if i have ubuntu on /dev/hda1 and i copy everything by a copy command to /dev/hda2 will it boot/work there just by changing root = (hd0,x) to (hd0,x+1)
[05:32] <gamalegy> hello

[05:33] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, it might be worth having a chat in apache then, but something in that file is being interpreted as those chars - what are you writing your files in? nano/vim? or something more complex?
[05:33] <daedra> it says I don't have the authority - though I can run terminal programs over ssh
[05:33] <acecase> berent, there are a lot of other places with configuration specific setting (eg. /etc/fstab)
[05:33] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: some of them are coded in dreamweaver's code tab, some are in nano/vim...
[05:33] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: but all are having the same issues
[05:33] <Lunar_Lamp> hmm, ok
[05:34] <Lunar_Lamp> I think you might want to have a chat in #apache then to see if someone can give you a pointer, i'm not sure what would be causig that - I'm not really an expert at all.
[05:35] <_david> why is lvm setup on ubuntu server really buggy? :/

[05:51] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, That's the problem.  Your client isn't allowed to connect to the server.  From inside the server trust zone, you can connect to it with SSH and then let ssh tunnel it out, but you can't start from the outside.
[05:52] <absenth> anyone have experiance with modern HP Pavillion laptops, and the integrated webcam?
[05:52] <psnel> genii: heh. thanks! talk again soon. rebooting.....
[05:52] <nibbs> how do i search for a file from the CLI?
[05:52] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Am I making sense?
[05:52] <shahab_sh> falcon409: look, it's my first day that i'm using ubuntu, befor that i used debian etch. now i just wanna know if i can use my debian packages in ubuntu
[05:52] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: so what should I do?
[05:52] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: no that made no sense
[05:52] <genii> kayzu: How were you planning for the computer to load ubuntu then? lilo or some other boot loader?
[05:52] <CardinalBiggles> You could turn off authentication altogether.  if you are allowed to log in, you're allowed to connect to the X host.
[05:52] <shahab_sh> because i dont have high speed internet but i have 3dvds for debian etch
[05:52] <Punkunity> need help please with an update manager problem
[05:52] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, ^
[05:52] <erUSUL> nibbs: locate or find
[05:52] <DShepherd> nibbs, find ./ -iname <filename> #try that. man find for more info
[05:53] <nibbs> nice one people!!
[05:53] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, From the X server trust zone,  $ xhost +localhost
[05:53] <DShepherd> nibbs, locate is nice too. thanks erUSUL
[05:53] <kayzu> genii: I'll let NTLDR load GRLDR
[05:53] <CardinalBiggles> (Or something like that.)
[05:53] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: but I _am_ allowed to log in - I can tunnel non X apps over ssh just fine
[05:53] <bouwiex> Hello, I enabled my wake on lan in my bios. Problem now is when i shutdown the computer it reboots. When I disable the function in the bios, shutdown works fine. Earlier i had windows on this computer and there the wake on lan and shutdown worked. Any Idea?
[05:54] <Shoopuf> Anyone have a guide on painlessly installing Windows for doing a dual-boot?
[05:54] <kayzu> I just don't want GRUB to mess with my MBR because windows is my main OS
[05:54] <CardinalBiggles> You could turn off authentication altogether, meaning then that if you are allowed to log in, you're allowed to connect to the X host.
[05:55] <GigaClon> Shoopuf, install windows first on the first partition on the hard
[05:55] <genii> kayzu Have you edited the windoze file boot.ini before?
[05:55] <rolfen> can copy dvd to a file image using brasero... it says there is not enough space but there is actually 16G of empty space on my drive... why is it doing this?
[05:55] <GigaClon> err Hard Drive
[05:55] <slimjimflim> shoopuf, make sure you install windows first, or else it will take over mbr
[05:55] <orange__> i can't find a folder for /usr/local/firefox32/plugins/ ???
[05:55] <DShepherd> http://www.howtoforge.com/dual_boot_windows_xp_vista_ubuntu_feisty -- this might help Shoopuf
[05:55] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: ok I'll try that
[05:55] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, A better way is to SSH the other way.  From within a process spawned inside X, there, run SSH and connect out.
[05:56] <rolfen> Session error : the selected location does not have enough free space to store the disc image (1616 MiB needed)
[05:56] <rolfen> i have 16 GiB empty space on that location!
[05:56] <kayzu> genii: yes. But how can I get GRUB to install to the root dir instead of the MBR ? I don't won't have a /boot partition, just / and swap
[05:56] <Pici> orange__: What makes you think that directory should exist?
[05:56] <genii> kayzu At any rate, if you have installed ubuntu to some other hard drive entirely, install grub to the main drive of that eg: /dev/hdb or /dev/hdc  or so on. Do not install grub to a specific subpartition eg: /dev/hdb1 /dev/hdc1 or so on. this will mess it up
[05:56] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: no that doesn't work either
[05:57] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, What doesmn't work?
[05:57] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: (from within X tunneling out)
[05:57] <Punkunity> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30923/
[05:57] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: i'm still trying the first
[05:57] <Punkunity> anyone>??
[05:57] <Punkunity> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30923/
[05:57] <Pici> Punkunity: Whats the issue?
[05:58] <Punkunity> update manager
[05:58] <obelix> Any bartending software?
[05:58] <Punkunity> pici
[05:58] <orange__> sudo mv ~/Desktop/install_flash_player_9_linux/libflashplayer.so /usr/local/firefox32/plugins/
[05:58] <Pici> Punkunity: What error are you getting?
[05:58] <orange__> to instal flash player 9 linux
[05:58] <kayzu> genii, I don't want GRUB on any MBR :/
[05:58] <orange__> installing the plugin
[05:58] <Pici> orange__: perhaps you need to create that folder first.
[05:58] <Punkunity> the update manager is saying that all 17 updates url's are wrong or something pici
[05:58] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, I assure you that tunneling out (not in) does work.  Perhaps you have some other restriction preventing it, that I don't know about?
[05:58] <orange__> but i cant'
[05:58] <orange__> not allow
[05:58] <DShepherd> orange__, sudo maybe?
[05:58] <Pici> orange__: you can using sudo

[05:59] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, "xeyes"?
[06:00] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: that happens when merely doing ssh <IP_ADDRESS> -X from within X
[06:00] <obelix> does anyone knows any bartending software?
[06:00] <genii> kayzu You cannot install it to some subpartition as i just explained. So if you put ubuntu on second hard drive, put grub on the main of that drive eg: /dev/hdb for slave on main IDE or so on. There is no way I know of to not have grub on the beginning of at least the drive linux is installed to
[06:00] <seanw> There is a figlet clone called toilet, a debian package exists. Would someone please adopt it so I can apt-get or something similar? :-)
[06:00] <orange__> Pici not working
[06:00] <irmarquez> ola
[06:00] <Pici> seanw: toilet exists in the repos, you might need to enable the universe.
[06:00] <orange__> i try going to the dir and sudo mv libflashplayer.so /usr/local/firefox32/plugins
[06:00] <Pici> Punkunity: looking.
[06:01] <orange__> Pici i try going to the dir and sudo mv libflashplayer.so /usr/local/firefox32/plugins
[06:01] <Shoopuf> slimjimflim, GigaClon, DShepherd: Oh man, I already installed Ubuntu, I'd hate to uninstall it again. :(
[06:01] <Pici> orange__: are you getting an error when you try to create /usr/local/firefox32/plugins ?
[06:01] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, "xeyes"?
[06:01] <seanw> Pici, I'm 99% certain that I have them all turned on - how can I check?

[06:02] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, alright, then it's not an ssh problem.  If you can't run '
[06:02] <genii> kayzu: Conceivably you could not install grub at all, if you know the exact windoze-type boot.ini entry which will point it to the exact partition you installed it to. but that is beyond the scope of this channel, you will need to seek help in a windows support
[06:02] <seanw> Pici, nvm, I just checked - it's all uncommented and enabled, only one turned off is backports.
[06:02] <Pici> seanw: look at /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:02] <psnel> genii: Error 21: device not found (or something)
[06:02] <seanw> hehe, just did, sorry.
[06:03] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, alright, then it's not an ssh problem.  If you can't run 'xeyes' then you can't also connect ssh to that port.
[06:03] <orange__> Pici same

[06:03] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: strange. I can run nano through ssh
[06:03] <genii> psnel Bleh
[06:03] <slimjimflim> Shoopuf, well, you can also install windows on another hard drive
[06:03] <coltrane> hi ! I'm new with Ubuntu. I 'm using ubuntu 7.04 , Geforce FX5900XT ( i installed the drivers with the "resctricted Drivers manager"). I cannot set up the monitor frequency to 85 htz as it should go
[06:03] <car_watt> I want to runn Ubuntu on one laptop what laptop recommended buy
[06:03] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: yep
[06:03] <car_watt> ?
[06:03] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, "nano" doesn't connect to X, does it?
[06:03] <orange__> Pici i trying install flash player 9 in firefox as plugin
[06:03] <Shoopuf> slimjimflim: LOVE IT, thanks. I would much rather just do that. :)
[06:03] <slimjimflim> then use cmos to select a drive at boot time
[06:03] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: no
[06:03] <orange__> Pici and its not working out for me
[06:03] <psnel> genii: 2xBleh
[06:04] <aricz> Hi, anyone know of a commandline .pdf-viewer?
[06:04] <genii> psnel Need to go order lunch, back in about 5 minutes
[06:04] <kayzu> genii: oh.. but where can i choose where grub installs when i install from the live cd?
[06:04] <Pici> orange__: the howto I linked to you earlier explains that you need to move the extracted diretory into /usr/local/firefox32 did you do that?
[06:04] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: but I'm just saying that ssh localhost nano works
[06:04] <slimjimflim> Shoopuf love what, my sage-like wisdom?
[06:04] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, You lack a fundamental understanding of how X works.  :\  You may learn something in the next few minutes...
[06:04] <daedra> but within that same ssh, X doesn't work
[06:04] <psnel> genii: kk. I'm telling you its blkid... its doing something we're not aware of
[06:04] <BlackGhos> Does Ubuntu have the ability to be Remote Desktoped from a Windows Machine ?
[06:04] <daedra> xclock, xcalc, xfoobar
[06:04] <Shoopuf> slimjimflim: That and the fact that it gives me an excuse to get a new hard disk. :P
[06:04] <orange__> FirefoxAMD64FlashJava?
[06:04] <kayzu> genii: or how do i get grub to not install at all?
[06:04] <psnel> genii: chew it over :-)
[06:05] <seanw> Pici, I believe you, but I am getting "E: Couldn't find package toilet"
[06:05] <genii> kayzu If you want to NOT install it, I think there is an option not to. Otherwise like i said, put it on main of the hard drive device you put ubuntu on, like /dev/hdb or /dev/hdc or whatever
[06:05] <psnel> BlackGhos: yes.. using VNC
[06:05] <orange__> Pici do i need to install Install 32 Bit Emulation Libraries? first
[06:05] <kayzu> okay, thanks
[06:05] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, You're sitting at an X server, yes?  You have a terminal open.  What kind of terminal?  "xterm"?  "gnome-terminal"? what?
[06:06] <falcon409> orange__, : what are you trying to do
[06:06] <falcon409> ?
[06:06] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: echo $TERM gives xterm
[06:06] <Punkunity> pici some guy was saying to change my sources list thing with a text editor
[06:06] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, okay.  Now, type "xterm" at the prompt.  What happens?
[06:06] <orange__> falcon409 i trying install flash player 9 in firefox as plugin
[06:06] <Pici> Punkunity: Do a find/change in /etc/apt/sources.list and replace http://mirrors.xmission.com to http://us.archive.ubuntu.com
[06:06] <falcon409> are you using 64 bit ?
[06:06] <slimjimflim> Shoopuf just make sure you get the jumpers set to slave on one and master on the other...doesn't matter which one....they just can't be the same...other than that you're good to go
[06:07] <Pici> seanw: Thats odd.
[06:07] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: at the prompt _within_ ssh or normally
[06:07] <seanw> Pici, just what I was thinking!
[06:07] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, No ssh.  Forget ssh.
[06:07] <slimjimflim> Shoopuf i imagine you're familiar with your cmos enough to pull it off?
[06:07] <Pici> seanw: What version are you running?
[06:07] <stealthy> Ok, this is pissin me off
[06:07] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: it spawns another xterm
[06:07] <EchoBinary> so i learned that old USSR has a standard time, and that there was a sickle and hammer as a sundial outside the Kremlin used to Sync the time - they called it "Hammer Time"
[06:07] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Good.
[06:07] <stealthy> KDE is saying it's running at 2560x960, which is what it should be
[06:07] <Shoopuf> slimjimflim: not really but i can figure it out :) gonna be another week or two before i can afford one anyway so im not too worried about it
[06:07] <Punkunity> pici how do i do that??
[06:07] <stealthy> But it's viewporting to monitor0 640x480
[06:07] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, So, $ echo $DISPLAY

[06:08] <seanw> Pici, not sure - how can I check?
[06:08] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: echo $DISPLAY gives :1.0
[06:09] <Pici> seanw: lsb_release -a
[06:09] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, excellent.  Now, "xeyes".
[06:09] <Punkunity> so just delete that one part and replace it with the other right wehere the original was pici
[06:09] <slimjimflim> shoopuf, just get a cheap one at a garage sale or on froogle.....you shouldn't need to spend over 30 bucks for a 50 gig or so....and to get to your bios/cmos options, at boot hit your function keys and delete until it opos up
[06:09] <Pici> Punkunity: Exactly.
[06:09] <seanw> Pici, dapper, it seems
[06:09] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: yep it works
[06:09] <Punkunity> ty pici
[06:09] <genii> kayzu I'm pretty sure there is something like "skip this step" or similar you can choose
[06:09] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Ah.  So, local clients can connect to the X server.
[06:10] <daedra> yep
[06:10] <Pici> seanw: Looks like toilet was first introduced in Feisty.
[06:10] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Now, $ ssh -v -X remotehost
[06:10] <seanw> Pici, so there is no way I can get to it from dapper?

[06:20] <psnel> genii: just got some coffee.. ok. will try it... rebooting

[06:20] <BlackGhos> Does Ubuntu have the ability to be Remote Desktoped from a Windows Machine ? HELP PLEASE!!!!
[06:20] <BlackGhos> I get an error when mounting mu cdrom I get a Cannot Mount Volume " Invalid Mount Option wehn trying to mount "UDF Volume " Any help ???
[06:20] <panfist> blackghos yes it does
[06:20] <BlackGhos> k
[06:20] <panfist> blackghos you need to install a vnc server on ubuntu, and a vnc client on windows, there are a few of each available
[06:21] <rampy> triden1: i  tried some solutions online but nothing seems to work including wpa supplicant
[06:21] <diafic_> !maintainer xchat
[06:21] <Yggdrasil> whats the cmd to find out the uuid of a drive ?
[06:21] <triden1> rampy: Try installing the beta network manager: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/NetworkManager
[06:22] <BlackGhos> Can I USE a windows remote desktop client and goto a VNC SERVER on linux side ?
[06:22] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: hello?
[06:22] <Yggdrasil> whats the cmd to find out the uuid of a drive ?
[06:22] <triden1> BlackGhos: Nope, but there are really tiny standalone clients for doing that.
[06:22] <BlackGhos> K
[06:22] <panfist> blackghos you must use a vnc client, but there are several free, small vnc clients for windows,
[06:22] <BlackGhos> thanks
[06:22] <rampy> triden1: i tried network manager too but nothing works...i don't get the WPA-PSK option at all
[06:22] <BlackGhos> I get an error when mounting mu cdrom I get a Cannot Mount Volume " Invalid Mount Option wehn trying to mount "UDF Volume " Any help ???
[06:23] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, I see three attempts to ssh there, yes?
[06:23] <pilotlg747> hello everybody. My mouse wheel is working the wrong way. Is there an option in the xorg.conf?
[06:23] <triden1> rampy: Hm, sorry I'm of no help, my connection to WPA works with my atheroscard.
[06:23] <rampy> triden1:  do u get WPA option?
[06:23] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: yeah, sorry - I can paste a cleaner dump if you wish
[06:23] <triden1> rampy:  Yup, connected to my WPA router right now.
[06:23] <apprado> loco
[06:23] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, The last one is what we care about, I'll assume.
[06:24] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: yes, its the one I logged into
[06:24] <bad_boy> i instaled ubuntu, and default booting os is ubuntu. Where to change that????
[06:25] <bad_boy> i instaled ubuntu, and default booting os is ubuntu. Where to change that????
[06:25] <triden1> bad_boy: hit esc at startup.
[06:25] <bad_boy> then?
[06:25] <triden1> Use arrows to change OS.
[06:25] <bad_boy> yea, but i want default to be windows.  :P
[06:26] <octocore> can someone explain how to install my ethernet driver? i can't connect to the internet w/o it!
[06:26] <panfist> im having trouble getting ubuntu to install on my desktop...the feisty live cd and alternate CD were giving me errors which people thought were part of the new kernel, and now the edgy live CD hangs after i choose "boot or install ubuntu" help please
[06:26] <genii> psnel: Back with a sandwich :) Any further/different error msg?
[06:26] <kazol> Very interesting news about Vista connecting to gov't agencies (it was on Digg): http://www.abandonia.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=15364&st=0
[06:26] <triden1> panfist: How much RAM do you have?
[06:27] <panfist> triden1 2 gigs
[06:27] <DShepherd>  bad_boy you can change it permanently by editing /boot/grub/menu.lst. change default 0 to default <number>. number is where windows falls in the list
[06:27] <psnel> genii: not rebooted yet.
[06:27] <jrwr> ill post it again, DONT Spawn me off to that wiki ether, ive tried all that..... LOOK at the log http://pastebin.ca/630932 what does it mean?
[06:27] <mc44> !offtopic > kazol
[06:27] <jrwr> http://pastebin.ca/630930 :)
[06:27] <NekoKun> I need to make some mass replacing of text... I was trying something with SED but Im not doing it properly... can someone suggest me a way? let's say, replace all bar for foo_bar?
[06:27] <triden1> panfist: Oh. Hm, did you try the fiesty live CD? (Might be different.)
[06:27] <genii> psnel: Remember to remove that top line, i forgot to in the original cut/paste from your example
[06:27] <panfist> tridenl yes ive tried feisty live, alternate, edgy live
[06:27] <stealthy> triden1, turns out the issue was compiz was viewporting me for some reason
[06:27] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, drop back to your native shell.  What happens when you type "xauth"?
[06:28] <stealthy> CardinalBiggles, USA?
[06:28] <johnxag> hello
[06:28] <triden1> panfist: This is a "maybe this will work" solution, try Kubuntu. It has a slightly different way of running the installer, could be different.
[06:28] <johnxag> new to chat
[06:29] <triden1> !hi | johnxag
[06:29] <ubotu> johnxag: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:29] <kazol> mc44: I just wanted to show one more reason to use Ubuntu than Windblows.
[06:29] <feo> hi
[06:29] <pilotlg747> If somebody has some time. My mouse wheel is working the wrong way. Is there an option in the xorg.conf?
[06:29] <mc44> kazol: well, this channel is for support only please
[06:29] <kazol> fine
[06:29] <sepelester> Gnome takes forever to start, around a minutes pause when the notification area loads. Does anyone know of a problem?
[06:29] <CardinalBiggles> stealthy, Yes, fl.us.
[06:29] <stealthy> ah
[06:29] <feo> pilotlg747 yes you must edit the xorg.conf file and change de mouse configuration
[06:29] <stealthy> figured you might be getting the one that we were just eating last night, IA
[06:30] <Cromag> !openssh
[06:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about openssh - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:30] <slimjimflim> does anyone know the command to run a command in the background...so i can open it w/ bash then close or reuse the shell?
[06:30] <stealthy> Alright, next issue: I need a fullscreen app to only use one monitor
[06:30] <stealthy> is that possible?
[06:30] <genii> !info openssh
[06:30] <ubotu> Package openssh does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[06:30] <mc44> slimjimflim: add a & at the end
[06:31] <zmeiat_joro> hm, what's the first thing to check if sound suddenly stops working
[06:31] <pilotlg747> feo, do you know the parameter?
[06:31] <slimjimflim> mc44, with a space?
[06:31] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: I get xauth: /home/simon/.Xauthority not writable, changes will be ignored
[06:31] <mc44> slimjimflim: yep
[06:31] <triden1> stealthy: Mine usually do that... what the devil happens?
[06:31] <Purfier> !info openssh-server
[06:31] <ubotu> openssh-server: Secure shell server, an rshd replacement. In component main, is optional. Version 1:4.3p2-8ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 230 kB, installed size 596 kB
[06:31] <varka> slimjimflim: no without space
[06:31] <genii> Purfier: thx
[06:31] <Purfier> np
[06:31] <slimjimflim> mc44 i tried that, but it doesn't do it
[06:31] <slimjimflim> ohok
[06:31] <stealthy> triden1, I'm using a dual monitor set up... and well, cedega tries to do a game on both monitors
[06:31] <stealthy> whereas damn near everything else is smart enough to only use one monitor
[06:31] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Ah!  Figure out what that means.
[06:32] <stealthy> and there are no resolution options for the game, other than the 2560x960
[06:32] <mc44> slimjimflim: it doesn't work?
[06:32] <octocore> hello, i need help getting connected to the internet (installing drivers for intel netword adaptor 82562v-2 10/100). anyone know how?
[06:32] <iphv37> ppl..
[06:32] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: durrrr I think I need to chmod it to be writable
[06:32] <varka> mc44: you told him to put a space between command and & which is wrong
[06:32] <pi3> spelester: try #gnome
[06:32] <iphv37> ..how do i install a .x86.run game?
[06:33] <slimjimflim> mc44 no, and i tried it w/ and w/o the space
[06:33] <mc44> varka: its not wrong... well it works here at least
[06:33] <slimjimflim> it still starts the prog though
[06:33] <varka> !worksforme
[06:33] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[06:33] <triden1> stealthy: No idea, I don't play games.... really.
[06:33] <stealthy> hmm
[06:33] <DShepherd> iphv37, sh ./file.run #try that
[06:33] <tehtechman> iphv37: its probably just a shell script... so type sh file
[06:33] <JonRob> hi all, i can't get the live cd to boot - end up getting a blinking cursor and that's it
[06:33] <mc44> varka: why is it "wrong" then? :)
[06:33] <triden1> JonRob: How much ram do you have?
[06:34] <JohnsonsWhatever> How do I get run screen up?
[06:34] <JonRob> 1gb
[06:34] <slimjimflim> JonRob, checksum?
[06:34] <JonRob> slimjimflim: it's prob worth pointing out too - it's a modified image
[06:34] <elkbuntu> JonRob, modified from what version?
[06:34] <slimjimflim> well, try one that's not modified
[06:35] <facecoos> need help with proftpd
[06:35] <JonRob> 7.04 - i've made it custom to add some files to the desktop for a demo disc i'm putting together
[06:35] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: even when I chmod it it doesn't work
[06:35] <mc44> slimjimflim: what happens when you add a &, anything different
[06:35] <JohnsonsWhatever> How do I get RUN screen up!?
[06:35] <BlackGhos> I get an error when mounting mu cdrom I get a Cannot Mount Volume " Invalid Mount Option wehn trying to mount "UDF Volume " Any help ???
[06:35] <JohnsonsWhatever> ALT+F2+!?!? Something!
[06:36] <eBoxNet> alt + f2 ..
[06:36] <triden1> JohnsonsWhatever: Yes, but no !.
[06:36] <slimjimflim> mc44, like i just said, it doesn't help, whether i do `commandX &` or `commandX&
[06:36] <iphv37> DShepherd and tehtechman, ty!
[06:36] <JohnsonsWhatever> lol, i'm with the stupid triden1, sorry.
[06:36] <DShepherd> iphv37, np
[06:36] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Who owns it?
[06:36] <mc44> slimjimflim: I mean, does it do anything different to when you don't use &
[06:36] <genii> JonRob: If cd is good, most common is: 2 or dual-head videocards where out put is going to monitor you don't expect   or: the cpu needs a kernel option like noacpi or for some dualcore, the option  notsc
[06:36] <JohnsonsWhatever> triden1: remember what to write to start Beryl thememanager etc?
[06:36] <slimjimflim> mc44 exactly the same
[06:36] <mc44> slimjimflim: what command are you trying to run?
[06:37] <JonRob> genii: thanks - i'll try the different kernel options
[06:37] <slimjimflim> azureus
[06:37] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: me now (simon)
[06:37] <triden1> JohnsonsWhatever: I don't run beryl anymore... uh... i'll go look.
[06:37] <CardinalBiggles> "now"?
[06:37] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: I've done chown/chmod 655
[06:37] <psnel> genii: partial success
[06:37] <JohnsonsWhatever> triden1: thanks man! i need to know :)
[06:37] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, "chown 555" is like two kinds of broken.
[06:37] <maco> Hi folks. How safe it is to upgrade server running 6.10 to 7.4 ?
[06:38] <genii> psnel Able to boot to it finally?
[06:38] <daedra> lol
[06:38] <sepelester> I debootstrapped my fiesty, and for some reason it doesn't ask for a password when I sudo or gksu?
[06:38] <CardinalBiggles> maco, Make a backup, as always.
[06:38] <mc44> slimjimflim: ahh, silly java program. doesn't work here doing that either.
[06:38] <LadyNikon> maco: back up your system ..and it should be fine
[06:38] <panfist> can anyone recommend a media player that is light like xmms, but also has a decent library?
[06:38] <triden1> JohnsonsWhatever: beryl-manager
[06:38] <slimjimflim> yea, i just tried gedit, and it worked
[06:38] <DShepherd> panfist, xmms :-)
[06:38] <maco> CardinalBiggles: its a remote system, i do not have access to it :)
[06:38] <slimjimflim> i wonder if there's a workaround
[06:39] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Just "rm ThatFile" and start over.  "xauth"
[06:39] <nibbs> can i run xwindows remotely from my hosted ubuntu?
[06:39] <psnel> genii: booting to the new kernel gave the same error. I chose an older kernel. It booted, but gave a bunch of errors (deprecated stuff, udev-rule errs, etc.)
[06:39] <panfist> dshepherd heh, so i guess there's a media library for xmms? a google search for "xmms media library" was not very fruitful\
[06:39] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: ok
[06:39] <triden1> nibbs: What's the client OS?
[06:39] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, xauth should give some output, I think.
[06:39] <DShepherd> panfist, try beep-media-player
[06:39] <maco> nibbs: yes - VNC
[06:39] <A[D] minS^AwaY> Bye all .. c u tomorrow from Dubai .
[06:40] <psnel> genii: synaptic gave "run dpkg --configure -a manually" message
[06:40] <panfist> dshepherd where do i go to find plugins
[06:40] <DShepherd> panminal
[06:40] <DShepherd> oops
[06:40] <maco> Has anybody tried to upgrade server version of Ubuntu from 6.10 to 7.04 ?
[06:40] <DShepherd> sorry.. for beep panfist ?
[06:40] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: yep - "creating new authority file..."
[06:40] <rampy> how to install firefox 2.05 in ubuntu 6.06 lts
[06:40] <panfist> dshepherd yeah
[06:40] <genii> psnel OK, so if it did finally come up, you can try to clear out the package manager, then put in a newer kernel comparable to the one you wanted to load
[06:40] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: and a prompt xauth>
[06:41] <genii> !fix apt-get
[06:41] <PriceChild> rampy, what's wrong with the firefox in dapper?
[06:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fix apt-get - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:41] <genii> bah
[06:41] <psnel> genii: how would i replace the kernel?
[06:41] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Okay.  I'm not certain about this part.  control-d.  Then, try "xeyes" to make sure it still works.
[06:41] <DShepherd> panfist, http://bmp.beep-media-player.org/index.php/BMP_Homepage -- here maybe.. not sure though
[06:41] <genii> Anyone remember "unstick aptitude/apt-get" help ?
[06:41] <rampy> how to install latest version of firefox in 6.06 lts
[06:41] <daedra> yeah it works
[06:42] <psnel> genii: there was also an error about invalid line in fstab...
[06:42] <PriceChild> rampy, what's wrong with the firefox in dapper?
[06:42] <DShepherd> panfist, you can check out bmpx too.. its supposed to be the newer version to beep-media-player
[06:42] <maco> LadyNikon: have you tried to upgrade from 6.10 to 7.04 ?
[06:42] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, now, "ssh -X localhost xeyes"
[06:42] <zmeiat_joro> what's the first thing to check if sound suddenly stops working
[06:42] <genii> psnel Well, first you should make sure your package manager is good. lag.. do you remember invalid line in fstab? Maybe it is the one I said to remove, where you echoed it from knoppix before
[06:42] <panfist> dshepherd yeah screw that, bmpx uses 5x the amount of ram when it starts and of xmms and keeps going up
[06:42] <rampy> maco:  how can one upgrade from 6.06 to 7.04 like winows?
[06:42] <Prendy> Hi
[06:43] <DShepherd> panfist, oh... ok
[06:43] <CardinalBiggles> maco, It's never ever been done.  Sorry.  :P
[06:43] <Prendy> Ok
[06:43] <pilotlg747> sorry i cant find the right setting do swap the way that my mouse wheel works
[06:43] <maco> rampy: what do you mean?
[06:43] <BlackGhos> I get an error when mounting mu cdrom I get a Cannot Mount Volume " Invalid Mount Option wehn trying to mount "UDF Volume " Any help ???
[06:43] <panfist> dshepherd i was thinking about trying out xmms2 but it's still early in development
[06:43] <kshahnjd> MTA=Postfix, MDA=Dovecot, and I need both?
[06:43] <maco> CardinalBiggles: its probably not ery recomended
[06:43] <Prendy> I'm just wondering how can I have XP and Ubuntu and choose which onw I want at start-up?
[06:43] <genii> psnel: eg:   root@1[knoppix] # cat /mnt/hdc1/etc/fstab
[06:43] <rampy> maco:  i mean can one upgrade from 6.06lts to 7.04 ..i have 6.06 lts installed in my laptop
[06:43] <DShepherd> panfist, well it may not be as light as xmms though.. but hey.. give it a go
[06:44] <eBoxNet> Prendy: try the installer
[06:44] <psnel> genii:i removed that one
[06:44] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: WHAT!? xauth _says_ its created a new .Xauthority but when I ls -la for it nothings there
[06:44] <triden1> Prendy: When you install ubuntu, you can choose at startup what you want.
[06:44] <dyrne> Prendy: ubuntu does that by default if you make sure you install xp first then ubuntu. rule of thumb.. always give linux the last word
[06:44] <gemidjy> does the Live CD of Ubuntu, have syslinux or GRUB for booting (the live cd, not installed ubuntu) ?
[06:44] <psnel> genii:cant see anything wrong with it
[06:44] <genii> psnel Good, then it's likely one of those others to do with hdb
[06:44] <rampy> maco:   i also want to know how can one install firefox 2.05 ...i don;t see in the repositary
[06:44] <CardinalBiggles> maco, It's done often.  You should be asking "how do I make a backup" instead of asking the same question over and over.
[06:44] <kshahnjd> gemidjy:yes
[06:44] <maco> rampy: well I do have 6.10 on the server however I would like to move to 7.04 but it is kind of critical server so Im asking if its worth to upgrade :)
[06:44] <kshahnjd> MTA=Postfix, MDA=Dovecot, and I need both?
[06:44] <Prendy> Oh, ok thanks.
[06:44] <gemidjy> kshahnjd: yes?? I asked dual question
[06:45] <CardinalBiggles> maco, if you don't have a very good reason, don't do it.
[06:45] <Prendy> I might try to install ubuntu with my crappy connection maybe tommorow if I get the chance :P
[06:45] <gemidjy> kshahnjd: syslinux or GRUB
[06:45] <kshahnjd> gem:Grub
[06:45] <maco> CardinalBiggles: excellent, thanks for talking me out of it :)
[06:45] <CardinalBiggles> My pleasure.
[06:45] <Prendy> Is there a way to download a smaller file and get the iso?
[06:45] <s-ndh-c> hey ppl
[06:45] <grimboy_uk> When starting jackd from qjackctl with the configuration outlined on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/QuickTips I get http://pastebin.ca/630939 Anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?
[06:45] <mzanfardino> I'm preparing to install ubuntu on a new server and I don't know for sure whether or not it's got a 32 or 64 bit processor.  Is there a utility that I can run froma liveCD that will tell me?
[06:45] <triden1> !hi | s-ndh-c
[06:45] <ubotu> s-ndh-c: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:46] <genii> psnel You might want to comment out those 2 lines that start: LABEL=backup1 and LABEL=backup2
[06:46] <maco> mzanfardino: look into /proc/cpuinfo
[06:46] <s-ndh-c> how do i prevent that x11 loads the nvidia.ko from restricted-modules instead of the one i installed manualy?
[06:46] <dyrne> mzanfardino: unless you have a need for 64 bit. go with 32 regardless of proc type
[06:46] <slimjimflim> does anybody know how to run a java program in the background?
[06:46] <s-ndh-c> it allways loads the wrong one
[06:46] <panfist> mzanfardino if youre not even sure i would say use the 32bit install...it will always work and the 64 bit software is rarely worth the trouble
[06:46] <triden1> mzanfardino: IFyou don't know, 90% chance it's a 32... but...
[06:46] <rampy> triden1:  finally my wpa works ...do u know how to install firefox 2 in 6.06
[06:46] <triden1> rampy: Try searching for firefox 2 .deb.
[06:46] <joules> hey guys .. so i found out kde was not for me ... i had it on ubuntu i uninstalled it but somehow my amarok is still showing the mac-style bar anyone knows how to fix this?
[06:46] <genii> !blacklist
[06:46] <ubotu> To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u
[06:46] <dyrne> mzanfardino: though on a dedicated server i guess id go with 64bit
[06:46] <mzanfardino> thank you.  I would generally steer toward 32bit, but the machine will be running as a virtualization server and I'd like to take advantage of the 8gb ram
[06:46] <gemidjy> kshahnjd: and why not syslinux just as every other distro? :) (just curious)
[06:47] <grimboy_uk> slimjimflim, Not quite sure what you mean but maybe "java app.jar &"?
[06:47] <DShepherd> panfist, http://audacious.nenolod.net/Main_Page -- check out that one too
[06:47] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: you there?
[06:48] <Computa_mike> hi - back again - trying to get multi head working on ubuntu 7.04 - tried big desktop - don't work... Tried xinerama that don't work  - the ATI drivers (restricted) also fails to work - I have tried manually editin my xorg.conf file to within an inch of it's life - anyone got any ideas?

[06:48] <ubotu> Computa_mike: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:48] <psnel> genii: the others are on hda... hdb is cdrom. theres an err in /var/log/messages about hdb
[06:48] <zmeiat_joro> guys, really: sound stopped working and when i installed a gadget to control it from the taskbar all devices were muted
[06:48] <slimjimflim> grimboy_uk, that's what i've been trying, but it doesn't work...trying to open azureus....i did the same w/ gedit successfully
[06:49] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, I'm here.
[06:49] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Are you switching users, or sudo'ing or something?
[06:49] <genii> psnel Is your cdrom the slave drive on the main IDE channel? or did you move it also now to be slave on second IDE?
[06:50] <psnel> genii: primary slave
[06:50] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, $ ls -la $HOME |grep Xaut
[06:50] <s-ndh-c> so does someone know howto prevent x11 from loading the wrong nvidia.ko?
[06:50] <genii> psnel then hdb is correct
[06:50] <Pici> s-ndh-c: Blacklist
[06:50] <Pici> !blacklist | s-ndh-c
[06:50] <ubotu> s-ndh-c: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u
[06:50] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: no - but this might help - typing help at the "xauth>" prompt says that CTRL+D'ing out aborts changes and deletes .Xauthority
[06:50] <slimjimflim> grimboy_uk, oh, nm...i just got it. it was just lagging a bit. thanks though
[06:50] <s-ndh-c> its very ugly to have to logon on console and remove the wrong module and load the right one using insmod
[06:50] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Huh.
[06:51] <pc22> where can i find list repositories?
[06:51] <s-ndh-c> Pici: that wont work, i want nvidia but it loads the wrong one
[06:51] <dumbalien> RAID hardware question... ANy takers?
[06:51] <Pici> s-ndh-c: So, blacklist the 'wrong one;
[06:51] <BlackGhos> I get an error when mounting mu cdrom I get a Cannot Mount Volume " Invalid Mount Option wehn trying to mount "UDF Volume " Any help ???
[06:51] <triden1> !reoi | pc22
[06:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about reoi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:51] <CardinalBiggles> s-ndh-c, Make a backup and "$ dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[06:52] <Computa_mike> yeah - tried installing the ati drivers - i have them as an option under system,  administration , restricted drivers manager , ATI Accelerated  graphics driver - i tried enabling that and thenX doesn't work - i have to restore the xorg.conf
[06:52] <triden1> !repo | pc22
[06:52] <ubotu> pc22: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[06:52] <s-ndh-c> Pici: i have two nvidia.ko one from restricted-modules and one i installed manualy, dont think blacklisting would work for that
[06:52] <s-ndh-c> or am i wrong?
[06:52] <hdh> BlackGhos: see the end of the output of dmesg for a hint
[06:52] <CardinalBiggles> ^  sudo in there.
[06:52] <pc22> thanls
[06:52] <BlackGhos> k
[06:52] <triden1> Computa_mike: Did you make a backup?
[06:52] <Pici> s-ndh-c: I'm pretty sure blacklisting works for all modules
[06:52] <genii> psnel Ayhow, to find installation candidates for a newer kernel image, use: sudo apt-cache search linux-image|grep 386|more
[06:52] <psnel> genii: can't locate boot log /var/log/boot is from yesterday??
[06:52] <genii> psnel Assuming your package manager is OK
[06:53] <s-ndh-c> Pici: but it only works on module names or am i wrong? i mean the wrong is named nvidia and the right one too
[06:53] <s-ndh-c> never seen any blacklist entries with full path to the module
[06:53] <genii> psnel I wouldn't worry about the /var/log/boot much at this point
[06:53] <dumbalien> how good is software RAID vs. Cheap RAID card
[06:54] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, I'm not at my linux box, or I could help more with xauth.  Try logging out and loggint back in.  That should generate a new one.  Or, read the man page.
[06:54] <Pici> s-ndh-c: I'm sorry, I'm not sure :/
[06:54] <psnel> genii: kernel candidate: "linux-image-2.6.20-15-386 - Linux kernel image for version 2.6.20 on i386"
[06:54] <BlackGhos> hdh: I looked at dmesg and it says UDF-fs No filesystem found...
[06:54] <s-ndh-c> ok
[06:54] <s-ndh-c> :)
[06:54] <JohnsonsWhatever> How do I open a Limewire.deb file? How do I install LimeWire?
[06:54] <xpoint> http://xkcd.com/178/
[06:54] <Computa_mike> yeah - i made a backup of xorg.conf - i then restored it when i wasn't able to use the ati drivers
[06:54] <Computa_mike> currently i am using the vesa drivers
[06:54] <Pici> xpoint: #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:55] <hdh> BlackGhos: so it's likely that the media isn't formatted in udf
[06:55] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: ok - thanks for the help by the way :)
[06:55] <BlackGhos>  Unable to identify CD-ROM format.
[06:55] <genii> psnel Good, then you could use apt-get install linux-image-2.6.20-15-386         and you will have the newer kernel which may resolve all that udev stuff
[06:55] <genii> psnel Maybe use sudo with that btw
[06:55] <IdleOne> !frostwire | JohnsonsWhatever
[06:55] <ubotu> JohnsonsWhatever: frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[06:55] <BlackGhos> I can open it on my Xp box
[06:55] <xpoint> JohnsonsWhatever, try "sudo apt-get install gtk-gnutella"
[06:55] <psnel> genii:cool. I hope so. (sudo. ok)
[06:55] <panfist> dshepherd i could not find media libraries for audacious or beep
[06:56] <hdh> BlackGhos: I know of only udf and ISO-6990, maybe a corrupted disc?
[06:56] <dumbalien> how good is software RAID vs. Cheap RAID card
[06:56] <BlackGhos> I can open it on my Xp box
[06:56] <rampy> which are good graphical desktop options for ubuntu
[06:56] <JohnsonsWhatever> xpoint: I will, thanks.
[06:56] <eBoxNet> try another cd?
[06:56] <JohnsonsWhatever> Ubuntu Studio, anyone try'd it? Is it goood?
[06:56] <JohnsonsWhatever> http://ubuntustudio.org/downloads
[06:57] <IdleOne> rampy, gnome kde xfce fluxbox icewm ......
[06:57] <Computa_mike> johnsons - i tried it Sunday - took me ages to install
[06:57] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: YES! logging out and back in worked
[06:57] <JohnsonsWhatever> Computa_mike, why?
[06:57] <Computa_mike> primarily I got a screwed up partition system on my hdd - i would imagine if your partitions were 'normal' it would be fine
[06:57] <coNP> my feisty box says no plugins available to play DVDs
[06:57] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: have a toffee
[06:57] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, It was your Xauth file.  I bet you didn't own it or something.
[06:57] <PriceChild> JohnsonsWhatever, #ubuntu-studio please.
[06:57] <coNP> can you please help me what to install?
[06:57] <genii> rampy xfce is pretty fast and not bad window manager that comes with xubuntu install
[06:57] <JohnsonsWhatever> PriceChild: thanks
[06:58] <Computa_mike> and jack seems very difficult to configure (for a noob)
[06:58] <IdleOne> !dvd | coNP
[06:58] <ubotu> coNP: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[06:58] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, It could happen if you sudo or something and mess with X from a different user (like root).
[06:58] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: yeah I do that a lot
[06:58] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: thanks anyway
[06:58] <Computa_mike> i'll try multi head again tomorrow - i got a colleague working on it also - see ya later all
[06:58] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Well, be careful with xauth in the future.
[06:58] <coNP> thanks IdleOne
[06:58] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Cheers, and good luck.
[06:59] <psnel> genii: btx that hdb err (dmesg) was "[17179602.868000]  hdb: packet command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }"... "[17179602.868000]  ide: failed opcode was: unknown" ... "[17179602.868000]  cdrom: failed setting lba address space" (sorry for flood)
[06:59] <coNP> it is a real shame feisty cannot play DVDs out-of-the-box
[06:59] <IdleOne> coNP, it can but for legal reason it doesnt
[06:59] <coNP> sure, it is still a problem
[06:59] <coNP> as if it were illegal to play a DVD you bought in the nearest store
[07:00] <dumbalien> anyone use a PCI SATA card with linux software RAID
[07:00] <genii> psnel: Hmm. OK. I'm not entirely sure what to make of that. Main thing right now i'm working on is that your HD is booting properly and not groaning
[07:00] <DShepherd> panfist, what do you mean? i just install audacious.. and it is playing fine
[07:01] <psnel> genii:i agree
[07:02] <psnel> genii:maybe it'l be fine after dpkg -configure -a (still working) then I can revert to the upgraded fstab
[07:03] <psnel> genii: changing fstab did not solve it... it's to do with the kernel
[07:03] <panfist> dshepherd i want a plugin (or it could be built in) to will scan my hard drives/network drives for songs and let me search/browse within the player
[07:03] <panfist> dshepherd i want the lightest and most basic player that lets me sort my library by metadata
[07:04] <genii> dumbalien i have a few boxes using Promise SATA300 TX4 controllers (non-RAID types) with software raid and it works fine
[07:04] <DShepherd> panfist, exaile maybe then? have you tried rhythmbox?
[07:04] <psnel> genii:something i could've done this morning (9am!!) it is now 19:03 pm .. 10 hrs. geesh
[07:04] <ninix> hi. is it possible to solve the problem of the SQUAEW MOUSE with my ATI dual screen monitor (lcd + tv) with xinerama ?
[07:04] <DShepherd> panfist, http://www.exaile.org/ -- maybe exaile is what you would like..
[07:04] <CardinalBiggles> ninix, What?
[07:05] <panfist> dshepherd i dont remember which was which, but one of them was using 40 megs of ram, and the other was using 15 megs, and it launched a python or perl process or something that was using another 15
[07:05] <ninix> *SQUARE mouse.
[07:05] <genii> psnel It's been a while, i know :)
[07:05] <genii> work, AFK 2-3 minutes
[07:05] <CardinalBiggles> Ah, that helps, some.  Enlighten us, what does it mean?
[07:05] <psnel> genii: hey thanks for your time. really
[07:05] <panfist> dshepherd was that memory usage reported actually shared? anyway, i only have 190 megs of ram so I can't really spare 30 for a media player
[07:06] <yoyo> hi all
[07:06] <DShepherd> panfist, ok
[07:06] <ninix> CardinalBiggles: 2 mins, i gonna make a screen shot
[07:06] <CardinalBiggles> panfist, most libraries and such are shared with others, I bet.
[07:06] <sebrock> Please anyone, I set the dir to 777 but I still cant upload anything... proftpd is a b*tch to configure
[07:06] <ninix> emm no mouse in printscreen.. nevermind
[07:06] <yoyo> ninix plop
[07:06] <CardinalBiggles> ninix, So, it's a visual problem on the screen, not a hardware problem?  Something to do with th epointer?
[07:07] <rampy> how can i play real player in firefox
[07:07] <rafaelscj> Who know an easy-to-use proxy server?
[07:07] <rampy> i was able to download and play real player
[07:07] <XLV> ninix, if your problem is that the cursor is surrounded by a square, its most likely hardware cursor support, toggle it, in xorg.conf
[07:07] <ninix> yeah it's only that. my mouse is replaced by a ugly square when i move my mouse on my TV
[07:07] <baastrup> hey there, im looking for a way to convert movies to my ipod, can anyone help?
[07:07] <JC_Denton_> has anyone gotten battlefield 1942 to work with cedega? experiencing crashing issues when loading maps
[07:07] <rampy> but can't make it work with firefox
[07:07] <CardinalBiggles> rafaelscj, PRoxy of what?  HTTP?  Animal noises?  DNS?  Odors?
[07:08] <panfist> cardinalbiggles i mean when exaile (or rhythmbox maybe, cant remember) reported 15, and python was also using 15 megs, were those the same 15 megabytes? or were they using 30 together
[07:08] <ninix> XLV: toggle what ?
[07:08] <tRSS> how can I add domain users to local linux groups?
[07:08] <rafaelscj> CardinalBiggles, some like squid
[07:08] <rampy> real player to work with firefox?
[07:08] <alesan> hi
[07:08] <genii> psnel Back. No problem with the helping, it is the troubleshooting part that always takes all the time
[07:09] <rafaelscj> CardinalBiggles, to share
[07:09] <rampy> how do one change the desktop look to gnome..i downloaded but nothing happened?
[07:09] <CardinalBiggles> panfist, Hrm.  It's notoriously hard to see what is new.  I suggest you use them and notice whether it's causing a problem.
[07:09] <CardinalBiggles> rafaelscj, Ah, HTTP, then?  Or, everything, all Internet access?
[07:09] <XLV> ninix, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/21545
[07:09] <alesan> I am writing an application that needs to be run as root (it interacts with kernel etc). right now I must run it with sudo in front of it, how to make that iot asks for the passowrd (and the screen gets gray etc)?
[07:10] <rafaelscj> CardinalBiggles, yes
[07:10] <rafaelscj> CardinalBiggles, http
[07:10] <XLV> ninix, Option "SWcursor" "true" is what you need to add to xorg.conf
[07:10] <alesan> I mean when selected from the menu
[07:10] <CardinalBiggles> Not a yes/no question.  Okay, I think you want to look for "masquerading".
[07:10] <panfist> hey everyone, one question...kde or gnome? go!
[07:10] <ninix> XLV: nice, i go try it.
[07:10] <alesan> pan KDE
[07:11] <genii> panfist thats more of an #offtopic
[07:11] <CardinalBiggles> rafaelscj, Is it that you have a linux machine that sits between other machines and the 'net?
[07:11] <alesan> panfist KDE
[07:11] <Purfier> panfist gnome;)
[07:11] <rafaelscj> CardinalBiggles, I want to share my intenet connection
[07:11] <djm62> could anyone tell me a good way to put my computer to sleep and have it wake up at the same time I want to wake up, and make a loud noise?  Preferably a Gnome tool....
[07:11] <psnel> genii: when I'm versed enough in the intricacies of linux I'll come help ppl tourbleshoot too :)
[07:12] <CardinalBiggles> rafaelscj, Very good.  Go search for "iptables masquerading"
[07:12] <genii> psnel: Thats the idea
[07:12] <blairellis> Just as an FYI the place to download the REAL PLAYER package has been removed from your DVD ubotu help file FAQ. Not sure who takes care of that, but the link is broken and I can't find it within the ftp site either.
[07:12] <rafaelscj> CardinalBiggles, okay, tnks
[07:12] <panfist> it's not really off topic, im trying to decide which dist to install...i couldn't get feisty live, feisty alternate, edgy live, dapper live CDs to install, I finally got PXE to boot and now the choice is on the screen...ku, xu, or ubuntu?
[07:13] <rampy> i downloaded gnome  desktop look for debian but it does now change the desktop look
[07:13] <genii> panfist kubuntu is most windows-like, ubuntu (gnome) is classic and xubuntu (xfce) is for light resource use
[07:13] <seanoh> Hi, i'm asking this here because I couldn't find a designated help channel for OpenOffice.  Does anyone know if there's a color picker in Impress?  As in the kind that grabs the color from somewhere in the current presentation?
[07:14] <panfist> genii i notice that KDE uses the most resources, is it "worth" it?
[07:14] <blairellis> If a computer is say 8 hours stable with Orthos under XP is it safe to assume that it would be 100% stable within Ubuntu?
[07:14] <m3nt0r> hello. i want to compila php with imap on ubuntu. what package do i need to get the missing imap devel headers?
[07:14] <rampy> can anyone help me to change the look of debain to gnome?
[07:14] <genii> panfist: If you want a gui with a Windows sort of metaphor, it is a good wayy to transition.
[07:14] <JohnsonsWhatever> Shit! I just installed this from ----> http://awn.wetpaint.com/page/Ubuntu+Feisty+Repository?t=anon <--- How do I delete everything I just installed!??! Don't want it!!!
[07:15] <ikonia> JohnsonsWhatever: there is NO need for that language
[07:15] <PriceChild> JohnsonsWhatever, watch the language please *looks*
[07:15] <JohnsonsWhatever> wops! sorry guys
[07:15] <angell> Hello
[07:15] <PriceChild> JohnsonsWhatever, didn't you make a note of what it installed/updated/
[07:15] <JohnsonsWhatever> PriceChild: I did what it says on that page.
[07:15] <panfist> genii the initial configuration of any dist doesn't really apply, because i will tear apart the desktop and customize it the way i want it, so the quesiton is which is nicer to configure and has more options
[07:15] <Jkessler> ikonia's right.
[07:16] <rampy> anyone to help to convert debain look into gnome ?
[07:16] <JohnsonsWhatever> PriceChild: So I guess yeah
[07:16] <Jkessler> poop is more fun to say anyway
[07:16] <PriceChild> JohnsonsWhatever, So uninstall/downgrade what you saw being changed
[07:16] <ikonia> rampy: debian look ?
[07:16] <ninix> XLV: ur right. but.... the quality is very bad of my mouse now. (visually)
[07:16] <genii> panfist Nicer to configure- KDE more options-Gnome
[07:17] <rampy> ikonia:  i downloaded the gnome desktop environment  for the 6.06 lts , so that desktop looks like gnome
[07:17] <tRSS> how can I add domain users to local linux groups?
[07:17] <ikonia> rampy: the desktop "IS" gnome
[07:17] <JohnsonsWhatever> PriceChild: In the Synapic organise thingy?
[07:17] <PriceChild> JohnsonsWhatever, however you want.
[07:18] <angell> I want to install my display driver on unbuntu 4.07
[07:18] <XLV> ninix, how you mean bad quality? also whats the gfx card, make and model, and what drivers do you use, and what version of ubuntu?
[07:18] <angell> the resolution is not as high as it is in vista
[07:18] <PriceChild> angell, 7.04 ?
