[08:25] <sharky_> i'm having trouble getting ubuntu to recognize a second hard drive formatted with ntfs
[08:25] <[MH] Narc`Lap> soundray, I just previously chmoded 777 my entire usr directory. Would this have something to do with it?
[08:26] <NoUse> runes have you rebooted to see if hdd1 gets created?
[08:26] <soundray> [MH] Narc`Lap: yes, that will have done it.
[08:26] <sharky_> all the tutorials say to either mount it or use the Disk Manager but these don't seem to be working
[08:26] <NoUse> runes the only other thing I can think of is booting off knoppix or another livecd and seeing if it detects the filesystem
[08:26] <[MH] Narc`Lap> soundray now how would one go about undoing this ?
[08:26] <runes> NoUse, befoer I reboot what should I add to the fstab?
[08:26] <soundray> [MH] Narc`Lap: that wasn't a good idea at all... if it was my system, I would reinstall.
[08:26] <Kaius> sharky_> Are you running a custom kernel or the standard Ubuntu?
[08:27] <soundray> [MH] Narc`Lap: having said that, you may be able to boot recovery mode and reinstall sudo
[08:27] <NoUse> runes you don't need to add anything to fstab for the deviice to be created
[08:27] <NoUse> runes thats just to define mountpoints
[08:27] <sharky_> Kaius, standard
[08:27] <sharky_> straight off the liveCD
[08:27] <[MH] Narc`Lap> soundray, i don't understand what just happened that would warrant a reinstall
[08:27] <runes> NoUse, ok I will reboot
[08:28] <sharky_> Kaius, i did: sudo /sbin/hdparm -i /dev/hdb
[08:28] <Warbo> [MH] Narc`Lap: I think as long as your home dir and config files are 644 you will be OK
[08:28] <soundray> [MH] Narc`Lap: you have flattened all the carefully crafted permissions in all the files in your /usr directory.
[08:28] <inrelief> how does openoffice do in regards to manipulating/intgeracting with Microsoft Office Databases?....should I not even try and just use crossover office?
[08:28] <sharky_> Kaius, which tells me the the system does see the disk, but i guess it doesnt get mounted properly for some reason
[08:28] <Kaius> sharky_> NTFS support should be there, then.
[08:28] <soundray> [MH] Narc`Lap: there's more to permissions than read, write and execute.
[08:28] <Warbo> [MH] Narc`Lap: Oh "/usr" I thought you meant your "user" (home) directory. Don't pay attention to me
[08:28] <[MH] Narc`Lap> okay
[08:28] <JeezGodDang> how can i install dappers dhcpd3 on 5.10
[08:29] <sharky_> Kaius, yeah i know i was actually able to mount the drive when i was on the liveCD
[08:29] <Kaius> sharky_> I'm pretty sure you just need to load the module for the ntfs filesystem.
[08:29] <[MH] Narc`Lap> soundray: is there anything i can do that doesn't include a reinstall? i'm not a very picky linux person. I mean, is my system completely borked
[08:29] <tr1gg3r> JeezGodDang: apt pinning
[08:29] <jeanjean> JeezGodDang: why not apt-get distupgrade
[08:29] <{iT}ErAlzoe> hi
[08:29] <sharky_> Kaius, do you mean like apt-get some module or there is something i have that's just not running yet?
[08:29] <jeanjean> JeezGodDang: why not apt-get dist-upgrade sorry
[08:30] <soundray> [MH] Narc`Lap: the short answer is: I don't know. It may be that after you fix sudo, your system is fine again.
[08:30] <Kaius> You should already have the module on your system.  Just gotta install it.
[08:30] <Warbo> [MH] Narc`Lap: You can look at someone else's system who is running "ls -l /usr" (and everything inside) and redo all of the premissions manually
[08:30] <Kaius> sharky_> modprobe ntfs
[08:30] <soundray> [MH] Narc`Lap: chances are, however, that you will run into further repercussions of your bold chmod move...
[08:30] <sharky_> Kaius, nothing no output
[08:30] <Tykan> hi again guys =) may i ask how can i "go back" in console? i mean, by default it starts in my desktop, i want it to go to a folder inside "home"
[08:30] <simonpca> ++
[08:31] <Kaius> sharky_> You shouldn't see output from that.  Now do lsmod | grep ntfs
[08:31] <Warbo> Tykan: "cd .."
[08:31] <Kaius> You should see the module and a size in kilobytes.
[08:31] <Kaius> er, bytes.
[08:31] <Tykan> <3 Warbo, thanks
[08:31] <ekp> hi
[08:31] <uXp> y0
[08:31] <Kaius> Hey there, ekp.
[08:31] <sharky_> Kaius, ntfs                  101376  0
[08:31] <NoUse> Tykan also 'cd' by itself always brings you to HOME
[08:31] <Kaius> sharky_> Now you're cookin'.  Try to mount the volume now.
[08:31] <[MH] Narc`Lap> soundray: how do I just reinstall sudo?
[08:31] <ekp> there is a Xfce theme I really like.........can I install it to run in Gnome?
[08:32] <uXp> sudo mount -a
[08:32] <Warbo> ekp: I used to use "xfce-dusk" theme in GNOME
[08:32] <gnomefreak> [MH] Narc`Lap: why did you uninstall it?
[08:32] <tubbie> hikenboot, how do I allow windows to go below the gnome panel?
[08:32] <ekp> Warbo: where do I get default XFCE themes then to install
[08:32] <NoUse> [MH] Narc`Lap you can start in recovery mode via the boot menu, then you probably do apt-get --reinstall install sudo
[08:32] <[MH] Narc`Lap> gnomefreak: I chmoded my entire /usr/ directory to 777 Q_Q
[08:32] <runes> NoUse, ok I rebooted
[08:32] <soundray> [MH] Narc`Lap: boot in recovery mode and do apt-get --reinstall install sudo
[08:32] <tubbie> how do I allow windows to go below the gnome panel?
[08:32] <NoUse> runes is /dev/hdd1 listed?
[08:33] <[MH] Narc`Lap> nouse/soundray: thank you, I will get on that immediately
[08:33] <sharky_> Kaius, still nothing
[08:33] <SAM_theman> Wheres Your Head At!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[08:33] <uXp> idk
[08:33] <sharky_> Kaius, sudo mount /dev/hdb /home/shahrukh/media/ -t ntfs -o nls=utf8,umask=0222
[08:33] <SAM_theman> Wheres Your Head At!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[08:33] <uXp> idk
[08:33] <Warbo> ekp: They are packaged as gtk2-engines-xfce
[08:33] <gnomefreak> SAM_theman: stop

[08:33] <NoUse> SAM_theman stop

[08:33] <SAM_theman> Basement Jaxx on ubutnu 6.06
[08:34] <runes> NoUse, no but I have hda, hda1, hda2, hda5 and hdd
[08:34] <Kaius> sharky_> What is the output from that mount command?
[08:34] <ompaul> SAM_theman, that is kind of offtopic this is a help channel
[08:34] <runes> NoUse, in /dev
[08:34] <sharky_> Kaius, no output
[08:34] <Tykan> ok, here goes another question :) how can i see hidden folders while in console?
[08:34] <NoUse> runes 'dmesg | grep hdd'
[08:34] <Warbo> Tykan: "ls -A"
[08:34] <NoUse> runes and pastebin that
[08:34] <Spec> Tykan: ls -hal
[08:34] <runes> NoUse, ok
[08:34] <Warbo> Tykan: "ls -a" will include . and ..
[08:34] <SAM_theman> I know
[08:34] <Kaius> sharky_> Ahh.  I see it.  You're not giving it a partition to mount.  try /dev/hdb1
[08:34] <SAM_theman> Just having a little hummor
[08:35] <uXp> Tykan :CTRL + H
[08:35] <SAM_theman> is that a crime?
[08:35] <[MH] Narc`Lap> Is "Start Ubuntu in safe graphics mode" the same as booting in recovery mode? (I apologize for being terribly new to this)
[08:35] <Kaius> SAM_theman> "We here in the support channel do not have a sense of humor that we're aware of."
[08:35] <uXp> yup sam
[08:35] <soundray> SAM_theman: looks more like you're proving that you're underage
[08:35] <gnomefreak> SAM_theman: for humor join #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:35] <ompaul> SAM_theman, there are over 900 in here - so please take it to #ubuntu-offtoptic
[08:35] <uXp> owned again!
[08:35] <Warbo> Tykan: To use them in normal commands you have to give them explicitly (so "cp *" will not include anything hidden, but "cp .gnome*" will)
[08:35] <SAM_theman> O ok srry I was being a little crazy
[08:35] <gnomefreak> uXp: now you can stop that please
[08:35] <uXp> < owned
[08:35] <uXp> ok
[08:36] <NoUse> [MH] Narc`Lap no, at the grub menu, it will list each kernel you have installed and one will end with (recovery mode)
[08:36] <b0ef> what is the super user password in ubuntu?; I'm trying to help a friend
[08:36] <sharky_> Kaius, i tried /dev/hdb1 .. /dev/hdb5  all give mount: special device /dev/hdb4 does not exist
[08:36] <gnomefreak> b0ef: his user password
[08:36] <runes> NoUse, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15408
[08:36] <Kaius> sharky_> Is the disk in Windows a Dynamic volume or anything funky like that
[08:36] <Kaius> ??
[08:36] <[MH] Narc`Lap> NoUse: I don't think I have a grub menu. All I have is the ubuntu install menu screen because I left my cdrom in the drive
[08:36] <acke> hey guys, how do i restart X? tried restartX not working ^^
[08:37] <Frogzoo> runes: is this 2nd hdd usb or is it ide ?
[08:37] <Kaius> acke> CTRL-ALT-Backspace?
[08:37] <Krpano> what is a good text editor with line counter ???
[08:37] <soundray> [MH] Narc`Lap: the grub menu is what comes up at boot, right after the BIOS messages.
[08:37] <gnomefreak> acke: ctrl+alt+backspace
[08:37] <tritium> acke: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart
[08:37] <sharky_> Kaius, i remember when i was using the liveCD the i had to mount /dev/hdb5
[08:37] <NoUse> [MH] Narc`Lap I know a solution for that
[08:37] <b0ef> gnomefreak: he has not installed yet
[08:37] <sharky_> Kaius, not sure what that means
[08:37] <runes> Frogzoo, ide ata not sata
[08:37] <Hoxzer_> Yeah finally
[08:37] <Krpano> guys
[08:37] <Krpano> what is a good text editor with line counter ???
[08:37] <Hoxzer_> 85hz :)
[08:37] <OneSeventeen> When I try to install "Macromedia Flash Plugin" it tells me it is "not available in any software channel.  The application might not support your system architecture" (I'm on x86) how do I install flash?
[08:37] <gnomefreak> b0ef: when he does it will ask him for user name and password that is his sudo password
[08:37] <soundray> [MH] Narc`Lap: if you have installed grub to the hard drive (you normally would have done that during installation)
[08:37] <Frogzoo> runes: & how are the cables configd? 2nd ide chain, as slave? do you have a master on same channel?
[08:37] <gnomefreak> Krpano: vim or emacs
[08:37] <sharky_> Kaius, it was simply a storage disk i never booted from it
[08:38] <uXp> ok guys im gonna log into windows now cya all later
[08:38] <b0ef> gnomefreak: yeah, but I need the superuser password now, before he has installed
[08:38] <ompaul> Krpano, most of them have some facility, vim does it
[08:38] <Kaius> sharky_> It means that the partition is the first within an extended partition.  mounting /dev/hdb5 doesn't work?
[08:38] <Krpano> Thx guys...:)
[08:38] <NoUse> runes that doesn't look good
[08:38] <tritium> OneSeventeen: make sure you have multiverse setup properly
[08:38] <gnomefreak> b0ef: i dont understand what you would need it for

[08:38] <NoUse> dying*
[08:38] <Queen> hello who are you people
[08:38] <ompaul> b0ef, that gets set in the install
[08:38] <b0ef> gnomefreak: I want to guide him through fdisk
[08:38] <sharky_> Kaius, /dev/hdb5 does not work
[08:38] <gnomefreak> b0ef: what does you knowing have to do with him installing it?
[08:38] <b0ef> ompaul: yeah, but he hasn't installed yet

[08:39] <runes> Frogzoo and NoUse  primary drive single master secondary ide drive primary master separate cables
[08:39] <tritium> OneSeventeen: have you updated your package list before trying to install it?
[08:39] <Frogzoo> runes: sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdc
[08:39] <Kaius> sharky_> I'm not sure what to do next then.  You have the filesystem module loaded, you know the partition...
[08:39] <gnomefreak> b0ef: he can manully partition it when he installs it
[08:39] <ompaul> Queen, we are talking about ubuntu, I have muted you as this is a hugely busy support channel for (ubuntu - a linux distro)
[08:39] <runes> Frogzoo and NoUse  all was rokign fine untill I had to reinstall on the primary drive today
[08:39] <runes> Frogzoo, I will try that brb
[08:39] <NoUse> runes you should buy a copy of spinrite http://www.grc.com/spinrite.htm
[08:40] <OneSeventeen> tritium: I'm trying that now
[08:40] <thompa> can someone help me install flash? I know about restricted formats page
[08:40] <NoUse> runes that harddrive is having hardware problems
[08:40] <tritium> OneSeventeen: and, of course, the package name is flashplugin-nonfree
[08:40] <Frogzoo> NoUse: this drive/partition should be hdc/hdc1
[08:40] <thompa> flashplugin-nonfree does not exist
[08:40] <runes> Frogzoo, ok brought me back to the command prompt
[08:40] <thompa> ive got universe enabled
[08:40] <tritium> thompa: yes it does, in multiverse
[08:40] <Sivik> ok, stupid question, what is the name of the sound controller app for ubuntu
[08:40] <gnomefreak> thompa: enable multiverse repos
[08:40] <thompa> ok
[08:40] <NoUse> Frogzoo 'sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdd' shows a partition at hdd1
[08:41] <OneSeventeen> tritium: thanks, I was only searching in the Add/Remove Applications because I couldn't remember the package name... lemme check synaptic
[08:41] <soundray> thompa: you have to enable the multiverse repository, then you will find that package
[08:41] <lastnode> Sivik, gnome-volume-control ?
[08:41] <njs12345> hmm
[08:41] <gnomefreak> Sivik: alsamixer i think
[08:41] <NoUse> Frogzoo look what his dmesg spits out http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15408
[08:41] <njs12345> I'm having the strangest problems with DNS
[08:41] <soundray> Well done ompaul
[08:41] <Frogzoo> runes: please check you have the drive jumpered as master
[08:41] <Sivik> there we go, thanks
[08:41] <ekp> Warbo: I install gtk2-engines-xfce........where would I look for themes to install in Gnome
[08:41] <NoUse> Frogzoo that drive is dying
[08:41] <kbrooks_>  J,,,
[08:41] <kbrooks_> Hmmmm
[08:41] <OneSeventeen> tritium: that doesn't show up when I search for it...
[08:41] <kbrooks_> I have a question
[08:41] <thompa> mulitverse is enabled in syanptics
[08:42] <gnomefreak> ekp: in synaptic under gnome or use apt-cache search themes
[08:42] <kbrooks_> a v. important question
[08:42] <kbrooks_> a .... well, never mind
[08:42] <tritium> OneSeventeen, thompa: something's wrong with how you've setup multiverse then, or you haven't updated your package list
[08:42] <gnomefreak> thompa: are you sure its not backports multiverse that you enabled?
[08:42] <runes> Frogzoo,  I wil have to shut down NoUse  I used the maxtor drive testing boot cd all came out fine
[08:42] <gnomefreak> thompa: also what arch are you running?
[08:42] <ekp> gnomefreak: I have installed theme engine but themes to not show up in Preferences
[08:42] <runes> ok I will be back going to chek jumper settings
[08:42] <ekp> have to install to Gnome?
[08:42] <kbrooks_> anyway, the question is, how do i kill all GUI programs started by me
[08:42] <thompa> good point, yest its backports
[08:42] <NoUse> runes I would get spinrite and run it on that drive *soon*
[08:43] <kbrooks_> is there a way?
[08:43] <thompa> its 386
[08:43] <Bahdie> penius
[08:43] <ompaul> kbrooks_, ctrl alt backspace
[08:43] <tritium> OneSeventeen: please also check that you're not thinking backports multiverse is your multiverse
[08:43] <gnomefreak> thompa: enable the right universe adn multiverse repos than apt-get update
[08:43] <Frogzoo> NoUse: hmmm... if the drive tests ok under doze, but errors under linux, I'm greatly thinking it's a wrong jumper
[08:43] <lgd_> hi all
[08:43] <NoUse> Frogzoo could also be DMA issues
[08:43] <thompa> how do i enable multivers, in syanptic everything is enabled
[08:43] <OneSeventeen> tritium: I think that's what I'm doing, I'll go check the wiki for adding the correct multiverse
[08:44] <lgd_> i try install xgl but not work i have a graphic board nvidia
[08:44] <lgd_> 128 Mb
[08:44] <thompa> i found it nevermind
[08:44] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell thompa -about multiverse
[08:44] <soundray> thompa: once you've done that, you still need to hit reload
[08:44] <Sir_Brizz> thomp: add multiverse at the end of your universe lines
[08:44] <tritium> ompaul: good call, that was the person formerly known as Queen
[08:44] <thompa> ok , that has been my problem all along then
[08:44] <ompaul> ahh

[08:44] <simp> how did you reload the package informations again?
[08:45] <speedsix> Hi, does anyone know if gaim needs any ports forwarding. Mine keeps disconnecting if I have the firewall enabled
[08:45] <thompa> i had to click edit, if you look at the channels list it seems as if everything is enabled
[08:45] <thompa> thanks
[08:45] <simp> no speedsix it doesn't
[08:45] <rendo> Nvidia is best supported by Linux correct?
[08:45] <ompaul> tritium, I got side tracked and was going to do more
[08:45] <rendo> Or is it ATI?
[08:45] <tritium> rendo: nvidia
[08:45] <campfire> i have 2 hardisk with ubuntu as master and windows as slave... but is looks like cannot mount windows because it doesn't "exist", do i have to configure fstab or something?

[08:45] <rendo> tritium: Thanks, I keep forgetting. :b
[08:45] <Kaius> njs12345> Progress.  Syslog tells me that in.tftpd cannot set groups for user nobody.
[08:45] <speedsix> simp, any idea why my gaim msn would keep disconnecting randomly?

[08:45] <Mgjs> I'm having some trouble getting TwinView up and running on my laptop.

[08:47] <Sir_Brizz> campfire, it doesn't see your windows drive as hdb5. Have you scanned your partition tabele to make sure that's where it really is?
[08:47] <ompaul> campfire, DON'T paste thanks, please read the message from ubotu
[08:47] <gnomefreak> ekp: no
[08:47] <ekp> where do the GTK2 themes reside so that I can install in Gnome.........I have downloaded and installed to /
[08:47] <campfire> gnome partition editor says it is hdb5
[08:47] <speedsix> simp, clock is right, yeah internet works fine, no error (although I haven't tried launching gaim via console)
[08:47] <Whyvas> if I do a modprobe ivtv, does the module stay there for the next reboots and if not what do I edit so it does?
[08:48] <tritium> ekp: there are ubuntu packages of gnome-themes and gnome-themes-extra
[08:48] <speedsix> simp, If I disable firewall it seems to work
[08:48] <gnomefreak> ekp: there should be an entry in system>prefferences>themes  if not try installing gnome-art
[08:48] <simp> oh, are you allowed you didn't disable the internet access for gaim?
[08:48] <ekp> tritium: I know I want Xfce themes to display in Gnome
[08:48] <simp> speedsix
[08:48] <tritium> ekp: ah
[08:48] <simp> speedsix: oh, are you allowed you didn't disable the internet access for gaim?
[08:49] <njs12345> hmm
[08:49] <gharz> anybody knows why i'm getting apm : BIOS not found whenever i restart my machine? my system hangs when it reaches the Deconfiguring Network Interfaces
[08:49] <njs12345> is there anybody here who knows a lot about DNS?
[08:49] <simp> speedsix: try creating an exeption fro gaim
[08:49] <ekp> tritium: I was told I need to apt-get install gtk2-engines-xfce
[08:49] <gnomefreak> most of the xfce themes do but some like tux and beastie dont :(
[08:49] <speedsix> I'm not sure what port?
[08:49] <ekp> which I have done
[08:49] <njs12345> DNS doesn't work in firefox or gaim, but does work in ping
[08:49] <simp> no port speedsix
[08:49] <Sir_Brizz> campfire, I'm not sure. That error typically means that /dev/hdb5 is not associated with any hardware
[08:49] <ekp> choices do not display in Preference|Themes
[08:49] <speedsix> simp, the options in gaim have a port range to 'listen' on
[08:50] <tritium> ekp: yeah, I didn't realize you wanted them for xfce
[08:50] <gnomefreak> ekp: are you on gnome atm?
[08:50] <ompaul> soundray, you got a pm
[08:50] <njs12345> if I monitor DNS traffic using ethereal, I can see that my router is sending a malformed DNS packet for some reason
[08:50] <ekp> yes
[08:50] <JeezGodDang> how can i install dappers dhcpd3 on 5.10
[08:50] <simp> hmm speedsix sorry not too familiar with gaim, wait i'l chek it out
[08:50] <gnomefreak> ekp: click on system than prefferences  you dont see themes near the bottom?
[08:50] <webwolf_27> what would be the acceptable ( and preferably fastest ) way to install the -dev packages of every package installed?
[08:50] <ekp> gnomefreak: no
[08:51] <tr1gg3r> speedsix: port range would depend on what protocol ur using
[08:51] <gnomefreak> ekp: install gnome-art
[08:51] <campfire> how do i scan my partition tabel
[08:51] <ekp> Ok
[08:51] <speedsix> simp, I see, I only use msn
[08:51] <JeezGodDang> campfire, fdisk -l /dev/blah
[08:51] <JeezGodDang> or just fdisk -l
[08:51] <njs12345> webwolf: I imagine you probably don't want to do that ;)
[08:51] <speedsix> simp, so what is the port range option in the gaim prefs for?
[08:51] <njs12345> do you know about build-dep? that makes installing development files much easier
[08:51] <Kaius> !tell kaius about pastebin
[08:52] <simp> speedsix: try disableing the listen if possible? i'm actualy more familyar with IRC
[08:52] <webwolf_27> njs12345, please tell me more
[08:52] <simp> speedsix: i have all my ports closed by my ISP but still gaim works
[08:52] <njs12345> well
[08:52] <tr1gg3r> speedsix: also if ur firewall is blocking inbound traffic only it should cause no issues with gaim, if u r blocking outbound traffic also then ull need to open ports
[08:52] <gharz> does anybody here experienced wherein when you reboot your machine it hangs when it reaches the Deconfiguring Network Interfaces???
[08:52] <njs12345> let's say you're trying to build the development version of XGL
[08:52] <speedsix> the firewall is blocking anything that is not port forwarded
[08:52] <netherworld> I have a problem! I needed to install python-wxgtk2.6 but it says that I need to have libc6. The problem is that I already have libc6... How can I uninstall libc6 without uninstalling all the other dependencies?
[08:53] <ekp> gnomefreak: still no joy
[08:53] <njs12345> a good place to start would be `sudo apt-get build-dep xserver-xgl`
[08:53] <tr1gg3r> speedsix: inbound or outbound
[08:53] <speedsix> both
[08:53] <njs12345> which gets all the required packages to build the current version of xserver-xgl from source
[08:53] <tritium> netherworld: _never_ uninstall libc6
[08:53] <tr1gg3r> speedsix: then u will need to open the outbound port for msn
[08:53] <webwolf_27> njs12345, thank you
[08:53] <njs12345> =)
[08:53] <ekp> I will work with Art Manager and see if that helps
[08:53] <netherworld> Then how can I install another version of libc6 over the old one?
[08:53] <snoops> hey umm I've installed xgl and it was working fine..but well I don't want to keep it..how do I remove it without breaking everything?
[08:53] <speedsix> tr1gg3r, forward the port? Which one for msn?
[08:54] <tr1gg3r> speedsix: google can tell you what port
[08:54] <netherworld> I really need python-wxgtk2.6 to make a certain program work.
[08:54] <tritium> netherworld: that should not require uninstalling libc6
[08:54] <webwolf_27> njs12345, and is there a way to install all packages containing xmms? I tried sudo apt-cache search xmms | sudo apt-get install - but it didn't work
[08:54] <speedsix> tr1gg3r, ok thanks. What about the 'Manually specify port range to listen on' option?
[08:55] <JeezGodDang> how can i run some programs at boot ? hdparm and ethtool
[08:55] <netherworld> Or can I force the installation of python-wxgtk2.6 without checking its dependencies?
[08:55] <netherworld> Or how
[08:55] <tritium> netherworld: I just simulated installing it.  It does not require any of that
[08:55] <netherworld> On mine ubuntu it says it needs libc6...
[08:55] <lee_> what's up with nfs-common not being part of the default installation but samba is?
[08:56] <_absolution_> I need help
[08:56] <Kaius> _absolution_> That's kinda vague. :P
[08:56] <tr1gg3r> speedsix: ur issue is not with listening ports it is with outbound connections, once u create a connection that state will tell ur firewall to let the incoming traffic in that corresponds to ur outbound traffic
[08:56] <Sir_Brizz> netherworld, what does apt-get install libc6 tell you?
[08:56] <tritium> netherworld: you should already have that
[08:56] <kallei> I am have been testing ubuntu for some days now and i think its really slow desktop in comparison to windows xp x64, i have amd 3200+ , 1024 ram ... i have tried xfce and gnome and both seem much slower than windows. i would really like to use ubuntu but i want it to be fast, is there any way to get it as fast as win xp?
[08:56] <_absolution_> why am I unable to delete files.....I'm a complete noob to linux
[08:56] <netherworld> It says it is already installed...
[08:56] <webwolf_27> lee_, thats a damn good question ( wish I had an answer )
[08:56] <tritium> _absolution_: what are you trying?
[08:56] <Kaius> _absolution_> Are you using the right command?
[08:56] <lee_> kallei, then use windows
[08:57] <speedsix> tr1gg3r, but it does connect and may last a few minutes before disconnecting?
[08:57] <Sir_Brizz> netherworld, you could try ap-get --reinstall install libc6
[08:57] <netherworld> Okay! Thanks!
[08:57] <_absolution_> trying to delete some folders on my desktop
[08:57] <tritium> netherworld: your libc6 installation should be fine
[08:57] <thompa> i got flashplugin-nonfree installed, but how do i get firefox to use it?
[08:57] <JeezGodDang> kallei, the difference is windows slows down exponentially as time goes on...linux remains the same or gets faster\
[08:57] <Frogzoo> lee_: probly if you know why you want nfs instead of samba, you can figure out the install without assistance
[08:57] <kallei> but as i said, i would gladly use ubuntu if it was just a bit faster... if there is any way to speed it up ?
[08:57] <tritium> thompa: restart firefox should be all you need to do
[08:57] <Kaius> _absolution_> left click and then press the Delete key?
[08:57] <lee_> thompa, what does about:plugins say in your browser location bar?
[08:57] <Kaius> kallei> video driver?
[08:58] <rabeldable> whats the limitation for the number of inodes in a directory?
[08:58] <webwolf_27> kallei, do you know how to compile your own kernel
[08:58] <_absolution_> it says that I don't have permission
[08:58] <kallei> i installed that to
[08:58] <lee_> Frogzoo, yeah yeah. but it's philisohpical. NFS is much simpler than samba but it's not a default, while samba is.
[08:58] <sbalneav> kallei: Maybe if you told us a few more things, like how you feel it's slow, and what kind of video card you have?
[08:58] <Frogzoo> kallei: how much mem you got? & what cpu?
[08:58] <Whyvas> kallei, stick to windows.
[08:58] <tr1gg3r> speedsix: what is output of sudo iptables -L
[08:58] <thompa> lee_: im trying to see this http://broadband.espn.go.com/broadband/EBB2/web/shellMain?ceid=2474224
[08:58] <thompa> it says nothing in bar
[08:58] <Kaius> _absolution_> You're in X as a user and not root.  Go in as root and change it so that your user owns the file and has write permission.
[08:58] <JeezGodDang> how can i run some programs at boot ? hdparm and ethtool
[08:58] <lee_> thompa, type "about:plugins" into your browser location bar
[08:58] <njs12345> webwolf_27: yes, there is..
[08:58] <njs12345> try
[08:58] <njs12345> sudo apt-cache search xmms | awk '{ print $1 }' | xargs sudo apt-get install
[08:58] <thompa> ok
[08:58] <kallei> amd x64 3200+ , 1gb ram (corsairs) , geforce ti4400
[08:59] <Frogzoo> lee_: nfs is also really solid - but I think the decision was made that samba was easier to setup for newbs
[08:59] <tritium> kallei: what do you want to speed up?  accelerated video?
[08:59] <thompa> lee_: I got swf enabled,
[08:59] <lee_> Frogzoo, yucky!
[08:59] <_absolution_> how do I do that?
[08:59] <kallei> webwolf_27 no , but i read something about it in the forums and it seemed intressting, can it make a huge difference?
[08:59] <webwolf_27> njs12345, noted
[08:59] <Frogzoo> kallei: how could ubuntu possibly be slow on that rig? what's slow in particular?
[08:59] <speedsix> tr1gg3r, all three sections say accept
[08:59] <eugman> can anyone help me set up a script like in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=15398?
[08:59] <thompa>     File name: libflashplayer.so
[08:59] <thompa>     Shockwave Flash 7.0 r63
[08:59] <kallei> tritium desktop, seem slows in the menus, windows etc
[08:59] <lee_> thompa, can you go to macromedia's site and see the flash content?
[08:59] <JeezGodDang> kallei, what video driver
[08:59] <speedsix> tr1gg3r, gaim has been running fine for a good 5 mins now, odd
[09:00] <runes> NoUse, this I do not understand!  ok I checked the cables and I had the boot drive as single master on ata66 controller  the secondary drive I had as a slave with the dvd burner as master
[09:00] <tr1gg3r> speedsix: sounds like u have no firewall running at all
[09:00] <Scorpmoon> if I find a program that is not installable via apt-get, is it ok to just install it by downloading the file?
[09:00] <speedsix> tr1gg3r, I'll run it via a prompt and see if it prints anything
[09:00] <Whyvas> thompa, you probably need flash 8 which isn't out for linux yet
[09:00] <kallei> i used some script from the ubuntu forums, it installed the lastest nvidia drivers i think 8756 or something like that
[09:00] <webwolf_27> kallei, yes, your then not loading anything you don't need, you can also use a thinner desktop like fluxbox
[09:00] <lee_> Scorpmoon, depends on what kind of file it is
[09:00] <speedsix> tr1gg3r, this is hardware firewall on my router
[09:00] <runes> NoUse, so I took the slave drive put it on the first controller booted up went into discs and was able to mount it to /mnt/80gig
[09:00] <Scorpmoon> this one, http://ksocrat.linux.kiev.ua/
[09:00] <thompa> lee_: that means i cant watch espn soccer highlites
[09:00] <tr1gg3r> speedsix: oh linksys or somesuch?
[09:00] <JeezGodDang> ya i heard athlon 64's are only fast with fluxbox haha
[09:00] <Scorpmoon> tar.bz2
[09:01] <Frogzoo> runes: ok, try 'sudo hdparm -I /dev/hdd'
[09:01] <kallei> webwolf_27 tried fluxbox a bit, seemed so unuseful :) or at least hard for me as a beginner
[09:01] <JeezGodDang> fluxbox is garbage
[09:01] <cartur25> What is the easiest way to increase my resolution with an intel integrated chip
[09:01] <Sir_Brizz> Scorpmoon, did you check on multiverse?
[09:01] <lee_> thompa, unfortunately, yes. bitch at adobe for that one. they refuse to compile flash 8 for linux
[09:01] <speedsix> tr1gg3r, its a cheapo connexant based one
[09:01] <NoUse> runes mixing hard drives and CD drives on the same IDE chain can cause problems sometimes becauase they operate at different speeds
[09:01] <JeezGodDang> carthik_, probably look up your monitor settings on google and put them in xorg
[09:01] <thompa> lee_: the link says i need fash plaer but it takes me to flash 7 download
[09:01] <Scorpmoon> no, someone didn't recommend those backlinks? is it really bad to install software manually
[09:02] <lee_> thompa, that's cause there's no flash 8 for Linux
[09:02] <kallei> webwolf_27 do u have any specific good urls to howto compile a kernel ?
[09:02] <tr1gg3r> speedsix: doubtful that that is blocking outbound traffic as none ive seen do
[09:02] <Sir_Brizz> Scorpmoon, not at all, actually
[09:02] <runes> Frogzoo, no such file or directory
[09:02] <thompa> lee_: thanks, do you know of any work around?
[09:02] <Whyvas> kallei, why do you want to use ubuntu?
[09:02] <tritium> Scorpmoon: what do you mean?
[09:02] <lee_> kallei, apt-get install kernel-package
[09:02] <runes> Frogzoo, no such file or directory
[09:02] <speedsix> tr1gg3r, I think you may be right
[09:02] <nootrope> dumbass question: what does LTS stand for?
[09:02] <lee_> thompa, don't use Linux? vmware?
[09:02] <thompa> lee_: maybe i will just find another site
[09:02] <Sir_Brizz> Scorpmoon, but getting all the right links in KDE and .usr/bin etc isn't as easy
[09:02] <Scorpmoon> i only submitted to universe repositories
[09:02] <made> hello all
[09:02] <tritium> Scorpmoon: it's preferred to use packages, or if you build from source, to use checkinstall to build a nice .deb from it
[09:02] <kallei> Whyvas it seems good, atleast what ive heard from all the hype about it ;)
[09:02] <JeezGodDang> nootrope, long term support...
[09:02] <uglymonke> hi all! Jemt i got some help earlier; after installing k7-smp kernel with apt-get i cant connect to internet. it wored fine before. i have static ip setup and dsl. the setup works with my mac and xp on same rig. ping gateway and dns results in:"unreachable destination host"
[09:02] <JeezGodDang> how can i run some programs at boot ? hdparm and ethtool
[09:02] <tr1gg3r> speedsix: u should need to do nothing with ur router to make gaim work
[09:02] <uglymonke> can anyone help or should i re-install?
[09:02] <nootrope> thanx, JeezGodDang!
[09:03] <webwolf_27> kallei, not off the top of my head but http://www.google.com/linux should bring a few
[09:03] <Whyvas> kallei, it seems like you have no need for it
[09:03] <Sir_Brizz> uglymonke, does eth0 even come up?
[09:03] <eugman> Anyone here have iptables set up with squid and dansguardian? I'd like to get iptables to work right.
[09:03] <Scorpmoon> ill try building the deb
[09:03] <speedsix> tr1gg3r, yeah it's odd, like I say it's been up for a good while now without disconnecting
[09:03] <NoUse> JeezGodDang hdparm is already run at boot
[09:03] <made> how do I activate restricted packages in 6.06?
[09:03] <zell1983> Alex_BO, sei pregato di non insultare le altre distro :P grazie, te lo dico da utente ubuntu
[09:03] <tr1gg3r> speedsix: maybe a network connectivity issue, or something with th msn server ur logging into
[09:03] <webwolf_27> Whyvas, he wants to speed up his system
[09:03] <JeezGodDang> NoUse, ethtool
[09:03] <Frogzoo> JeezGodDang: consider adding options to /etc/hdparm.conf & /etc/network/interfaces    - oh, & maybe use mii-tool instead
[09:03] <NoUse> JeezGodDang edit /etc/hdparm.conf
[09:03] <Jemt> uglymonke: Don't think I can help you any further - except advice you not to tweak the kernel - it is perfectly fine as it is :)
[09:03] <made> I can't find settings in the package manager
[09:03] <webwolf_27> njs12345, and thank you again
[09:03] <uglymonke> Sir_Brizz: i use eth0 and yes it pops up on ifconfig
[09:03] <winbond> is the fglrx ati driver proprietary?
[09:03] <Whyvas> webwolf_27, but it's slower when he clicks on the menus, so obviously it is a slow operating system....
[09:03] <NoUse> JeezGodDang I'm not sure how its done in breezy
[09:03] <speedsix> tr1gg3r, ok thanks for your help
[09:03] <Sir_Brizz> uglymonke, heh no clue then, my eth0 doesn't come up on the latest kernel
[09:04] <kallei> Whyvas main reason i want to try it is i think my windows is slow too, so i thought maybe i could get ubuntu to run even faster
[09:04] <tr1gg3r> speedsix: np
[09:04] <danfg> wow, aMule sucks compared to eMule, is there a better client out there?
[09:04] <jlramirez> t
[09:04] <acke> Hey guys, how do i make my networksettings make my wireless connection activated on bootup?
[09:04] <Whyvas> kallei, yeah, the menu speed is really critical factor in operating system rating
[09:04] <winbond> is the fglrx ati driver proprietary?
[09:04] <uglymonke> Sir_Brizz: funny hting is removing k7-smp kernel and booting w 386 i still cant get on the net
[09:04] <tritium> yes, winbond
[09:04] <lee_> winbond, yes
[09:04] <made> how do I activate restricted packages in 6.06?
[09:05] <made> I can't find settings in the package manager
[09:05] <jlramirez> winbond that is the problem
[09:05] <NoUse> !tell made about repos
[09:05] <webwolf_27> kallie, note however that you will need intimated knowledge of your hardware
[09:05] <webwolf_27> Whyvas, I suspect he meens boot speed
[09:05] <lampshade> Hey does anyone happen to know how to set Sun's java as my default java?  Right now java -version still shows the other one :-/
[09:05] <JeezGodDang> Frogzoo, um /etc/network/interfaces doesnt really have a place i can add ethtool
[09:05] <tritium> webwolf_27: ubuntu stock kernels should be sufficient for nearly all users.  Let's not recommend compiling kernels to newer users
[09:05] <Frogzoo> !tell lampshade about java
[09:05] <runes> Frogzoo, it is mounted to /mnt/80gig but when I browse the drive it only shows the lost and found and reports 71.2 gig left
[09:05] <winbond> ty
[09:05] <tritium> lampshade: with update-alternatives
[09:06] <Frogzoo> JeezGodDang: you want post-up
[09:06] <lampshade> tritium: thank you
[09:06] <Whyvas> WebMaven, he is basing his speed comparisons on the speed that the menu comes up when he clicks on applications vs clicking on start in windows...
[09:06] <JeezGodDang> Frogzoo, say what
[09:06] <gdolinerMI> I have a timestamp too far in the future problem when running sudo, any thoughts?
[09:06] <__doc__> hi, anybody an idea how I make ubuntu copy text I select automatically and paste it upon mouse right click?
[09:06] <soundray> JeezGodDang: run ethtool from /etc/rc.local
[09:06] <Whyvas> webwolf_27, , he is basing his speed comparisons on the speed that the menu comes up when he clicks on applications vs clicking on start in windows...
[09:06] <JeezGodDang> soundray, ok
[09:06] <tritium> lampshade: look in /etc/alternatives for java, and use update-alternative with the --config option to change them
[09:06] <KevLee> hi all - can anyone tell me where to get codecs package for Totem ?
[09:06] <NoUse> soundray does /etc/rc.local exist in breezy?
[09:06] <JeezGodDang> soundray, doesnt exist
[09:06] <Frogzoo> JeezGodDang: man interfaces & check out the post-up option
[09:07] <sbalneav> __doc__: use the middle mouse button
[09:07] <tritium> NoUse: no
[09:07] <acke> Would clicking activate in my network settings for my Ath0 interface corespond to doing ifconfig up Ath0 in the terminal?
[09:07] <soundray> JeezGodDang: then use /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh instead
[09:07] <tritium> acke: yes
[09:07] <__doc__> sbalneav: 1. I don't have a middle mouse button, 2. it does not copy selected text automatically
[09:07] <Frogzoo> JeezGodDang: & if you're trying to set speed/autoneg, mii-tool might do a better job
[09:07] <soundray> NoUse: no, I know...
[09:07] <tritium> JeezGodDang: or use update-rc.d to install your own initscript
[09:07] <timmower_> hello could someone help me with samba? I cannot connect to shares on an ubuntu fileserver from an os10.4 laptop.
[09:07] <JeezGodDang> soundray, thanks
[09:07] <soundray> NoUse: wasn't it you who told me?
[09:07] <acke> tritium, so is there a way to add ifconfig up to the cron?! to get it to startup on bootup?
[09:08] <uglymonke> Hey! how did people manage before icq? i cant seem to fix any error in ubuntu that stops me from reaching the net
[09:08] <tritium> acke: it's easier than that.
[09:08] <kallei> Whyvas yes as a matter of fact , to me it is, i cant sit around wating too long just to get the desktop menus, folders, windows to pop up, i want it lightning fast
[09:08] <lonegeek> Can someone help me get picasa working.... Ive installed it mutliple times but nothing happens when i click launcher
[09:08] <sbalneav> __doc__, What happens when you press both buttons at the same time?  Usually that emulates a middle click.
[09:08] <NoUse> soundray I don't know
[09:08] <timmower_> i have tried switching to a static ip address, using my known good config from gentoo, and turning on and off encrypted passwords
[09:08] <tritium> acke: simply make sure it's set to "auto" in /etc/network/interfaces
[09:08] <winbond> thanks guys , i know, ati fuckin sucks at making linux drivers
[09:08] <tritium> acke: that's also configurable from the gui tools
[09:08] <__doc__> sbalneav: look that's not what I want it to do
[09:08] <Frogzoo> acke: you just need to give the i/f the auto option in /etc/network/interfaces for the i/f to come up at boot
[09:08] <tritium> winbond: language, dude!
[09:08] <made> http://www.shorten.ws/?r=93y <- screen shot of my software properties.. there isn't a settings button.. what am I missing?
[09:08] <__doc__> sbalneav: I want to have a single click on my right mouse to paste text and be it copyied automatically when I select it
[09:09] <KevLee> anyone... how can I get wmv files to play in totem ?
[09:09] <__doc__> sbalneav: alternatives are uninteresting as I do not want them
[09:09] <Whyvas> kallei, you're a windows user, stick to it.
[09:09] <kallei> i just wanted some tips to speed up the whole feeling while using the desktop =]
[09:09] <sbalneav> __doc__: ok, so then how are you going do distinguish between a right click paste, and a right click properties?
[09:09] <NoUse> !tell KevLee about wmv
[09:09] <kermitX_> KevLee, extracodecs & w32codecs see www.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[09:09] <tritium> winbond: don't use that language here in the future
[09:09] <winbond> alright
[09:09] <runes> NoUse and Frogzoo  it's as if the drive is hiding the data since I can only see 72 out of 80 gigs
[09:09] <KevLee> kermitX thanks I'll look there... :)
[09:09] <JeezGodDang> kallei, you are uising the 64 bit ubuntu right?
[09:09] <NoUse> runes ls -a to see hidden files
[09:10] <__doc__> sbalneav: I could distinguish by the fact that a click is a click, and when I hold it a menu comes up
[09:10] <tritium> winbond: thanks :)
[09:10] <lonegeek> runes: you sure thats not the formated size of the drive?
[09:10] <made> NoUse: did you get that screen shot?
[09:10] <kallei> JeezGodDang yep
[09:10] <timmower_> is there an ubuntu server irc channel?
[09:10] <Frogzoo> runes: have you played with any hdparm settings?
[09:10] <runes> NoUse, nope not a thing
[09:10] <runes> Frogzoo, nope
[09:10] <JeezGodDang> kallei, it shouldnt be slow...its fast here
[09:10] <acke> tritium my ath0 line in interfaces is auto ath0 already. but it doesnt activate after loggin
[09:10] <cartur25> How do I figure out the root password on my computer?
[09:10] <JeezGodDang> kallei, fast on a 1ghz
[09:10] <soundray> !tell cartur25 about root
[09:10] <jenda> !cz
[09:11] <ubotu> My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, jenda
[09:11] <JeezGodDang> cartur25, sudo -s and then passwd
[09:11] <tritium> acke: is the "auto" line above the iface line?
[09:11] <acke> no
[09:11] <sbalneav> __doc__: I don't think X windows can do what you want.  You'll either have to learn to find alternatives intersting, or spend 5 bucks and buy a 3 button mouse :)
[09:11] <soundray> JeezGodDang: don't give that advice please
[09:11] <acke> tritium no should it be_
[09:11] <acke> ?
[09:11] <JeezGodDang> soundray, thats the advice i was given
[09:11] <tritium> acke: also, is the proper kernel module being loaded?
[09:11] <JeezGodDang> works great
[09:11] <SAM_theman> http://pastebin.com/770580
[09:11] <runes> Frogzoo, when I had the crash thismorning after trying to run the penguins applet I rebooted could not get anywhere so I reformatted only the main drive but I backed up the data to the second drive (80 gig ext3) that was all I did
[09:11] <soundray> JeezGodDang: it shouldn't have been given to you, either.
[09:11] <__doc__> sbalneav: I'm running one of the most expensive mouse you can get for money, and it has no middle button....
[09:11] <tritium> acke: yes, please try moving it before the iface line for it
[09:11] <Frogzoo> runes: those errors from dmesg - are they continual, or just occur as startup?
[09:11] <SAM_theman> I can't seem to play any of my Linux Native games
[09:11] <lonegeek> anyone want to help me with my ati card  ...details here   http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1114090#post1114090
[09:11] <JeezGodDang> soundray, any reason?
[09:12] <acke> tritium, the ath0 works great when i activate it in the gui settings
[09:12] <soundray> JeezGodDang: the wiki explains it.
[09:12] <kallei> well i think ill try reinstalling and try to compile my own kernel then, img going to get this thing fast :) thanks for the tips, wish me luck ;)
[09:12] <acke> tritium, tyim gonna try that
[09:12] <runes> Frogzoo, I will try it again and see the results
[09:12] <tritium> acke: okay, so presumably the module _is_ loaded
[09:12] <sbalneav> __doc__: LOL
[09:12] <soundray> !tell JeezGodDang about sudo
[09:12] <JeezGodDang> sometimes sudo just doesnt cut it
[09:12] <__doc__> sbalneav: don't believe me?
[09:12] <sbalneav> __doc__: Sure I beleive you.
[09:12] <runes> Frogzoo, it is only showing the ide1 specs
[09:13] <soundray> JeezGodDang: then you boot in recovery mode or use a live CD. Much safer.
[09:13] <keir> how do you make middle-click go to the address in the clipbord in firefox?
[09:13] <__doc__> sbalneav: that's my mouse http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/products/details/CA/EN,CRID=2135,CONTENTID=10716
[09:13] <JeezGodDang> soundray, hm root doesnt scare me though
[09:13] <Frogzoo> runes: so like pages of hdd errors?
[09:13] <made> "Click the Settings button at the bottom and tick Show disabled software sources. Then click the Close button." I can't even get that far because I can't access settings in the software properties...
[09:13] <runes> Frogzoo, could this problem be a result of using the format to ext3 under administratio>discs in the initial install a few ways ago?
[09:13] <sbalneav> __doc__: that's got a middle button
[09:13] <soundray> keir: enter "about:config" in the adress field. Filter for "middle" and set options appropriately.
[09:13] <Flannel> JeezGodDang: that's fine for you, don't recommend it to others though, as they might not understand the full implications of being root.
[09:13] <runes> Frogzoo,  no no pages of errors at all
[09:14] <snoops> can I switch all the effects off in xgl?
[09:14] <JeezGodDang>    Use the dhcp3-server (dhcp3-server_3.0.3-6ubuntu4) from Dapper (Although it is not officially released).
[09:14] <JeezGodDang> how do i do that
[09:14] <sbalneav> __doc__: press down on the scrolly wheel.
[09:14] <keir> soundray, thanks!
[09:14] <__doc__> sbalneav: that's horrible to use
[09:14] <NoUse> snoops probably ask in #ubuntu-xgl
[09:14] <nootrope> anyone know how i can disable tapping on my laptop's touchpad?
[09:14] <Frogzoo> runes: when you say you tested this drive under doze, you sure you did a non-destructive test? you didn't actually write the drive did you?
[09:14] <snoops> okay thanks NoUse
[09:14] <soundray> JeezGodDang: this discussion keeps coming up, I don't feel like having it again. Suffice it to say that "being scared of root" is not the problem that the policy is designed to address.
[09:14] <wsjunior> how do i configure my wireless card?
[09:14] <uglymonke> Hi all! How can i reinstall networking packages directly fom dapper cd? i want to avoid reinstall but i cant reach internet on ubuntu :) thanks for any help!
[09:14] <__doc__> sbalneav: besides the point, that still doesn't make it copy automatically
[09:14] <soundray> !tell wsjunior about wireless
[09:14] <GodAllah> soundray, id take my advice back if i could..hopefully it didnt help him
[09:15] <acke> I think my synaptic manager is broken, i get these error mesg : http://pasteit.org/view.php?num=27 Coudl someone please have a look at it
[09:15] <sbalneav> __doc__: In my Dapper, when I highlight something, then move somewhere else, and middle click, it pastes.
[09:15] <sbalneav> __doc__: does it in OpenOffice, does it in gedit, does it in vi, does it everywhere.
[09:15] <timmower_> uglymonke: can you not configure the network manually?
[09:15] <timmower_> uglymonke: or have you removed the packages?
[09:16] <cartur25> Once I have logged into sudo with "sudo -s" how do I return to my regular user name?
[09:16] <__doc__> sbalneav: I got a button on that mouse that's be good for middle click, but it's not the middle button...
[09:16] <_absolution_> is openoffice included on Dapper??
[09:16] <timmower_> cartur25:
[09:16] <tritium> _absolution_: definitely
[09:16] <Frogsnooze> _absolution_: yup
[09:16] <soundray> cartur25: with exit
[09:16] <_absolution_> I can't see it
[09:16] <Flannel> cartur25: don't log in like that, but exit will get you out
[09:16] <siofwolves> are network-manager & network-manager-gnome the same ?
[09:16] <timmower_> cartur25: ctrl -D
[09:16] <sbalneav> __doc__: then you could remap it with xmodmap.
[09:17] <cartur25> I'm trying to increase my resolution to 1600x1200 and it says in the intstructions to log in as root
[09:17] <soundray> siofwolves: no. apt-cache show network-manager ; apt-cache show network-manager-gnome
[09:17] <Flannel> cartur25: where are the instructions?
[09:17] <runes> Frogzoo, I'm not sure how to explain this but I'll do my best: Installed dapper final release two days ago on the primary 40 gig I used the 80 gig separately and fromatted it from ntfs to ext 3 and mounted it to /mnt/80gig after creating the directory 80gig.  All was workign fine even transferred mp3 torrents and all y documents to the 80 gig oincase I had to blow out the 40.  Today I had to reformat the 40 and reinstall ubuntu.  on the
[09:17] <runes>  install (live) it asked me which drive so I selected the 40..installed fine got to the desktop and the 80 gig was nowhere to be found
[09:17] <lonegeek> how can i see logs that picasa is outputting...because its not loading
[09:18] <__doc__> ya thx
[09:18] <cartur25> Flannel	: http://www.geocities.com/stomljen/readme.html
[09:18] <sbalneav> __doc__: Your welcome.
[09:18] <_absolution_> why am I see locks on my folders?
[09:18] <soundray> lonegeek: try 'ls -lart /var/log' -- the last lines are the most recently changed log files/directories.
[09:18] <timmower_> runes: did you use the automatic partitiioning?
[09:18] <runes> timmower_, yes
[09:19] <Flannel> oh.  That's why, it's not official.  Well, in the future, whenever something tells you to use root, you can use sudo.  But, this is the recommended resolution one:
[09:19] <TomekB> hello
[09:19] <Flannel> !tell cartur25 about resolution
[09:19] <acke> HEy guys my synaptic package manager is broken!? i get errormsg everytime i use it, this is an excample http://pasteit.org/view.php?num=27
[09:19] <runes> timmower_, it did ask me which drive to select though
[09:19] <acke> PLZ
[09:19] <Scorpmoon> tritium, could you clarify how I use checkinstall
[09:19] <TomekB> anyone tried upgrading from debian sid to dapper?
[09:19] <lonegeek> soundray: i dont see picasa in there....
[09:19] <timmower_> runes: then I should think it is just not mounted
[09:19] <tritium> !checkinstall
[09:19] <ubotu> well, checkinstall is http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CheckInstall
[09:19] <tritium> Scorpmoon: ^^
[09:19] <Scorpmoon> thx
[09:19] <gnomefreak> TomekB: i wouldnt
[09:19] <acke> is it normal to have error msg like that?
[09:19] <siofwolves> soundray, do i type apt-cache show network-manager-gnome into the terminal ?
[09:19] <soundray> lonegeek: grep the files with the most recent dates for picasa
[09:19] <gnomefreak> TomekB: you open up for major issues that way
[09:20] <timmower_> runes: Ive not done the automatic partitioning, but I am guessing it doesn't scan for other partitions and mount them - I could be wrong though
[09:20] <NoUse> runes have you run fsck against the drive since you moved it to the different IDE controller
[09:20] <timmower_> runes:
[09:20] <soundray> siofwolves: to see a summary of what the package is about, yes.
[09:20] <timmower_> runes: do you know how to mount a drive, and which drive it is?
[09:20] <lonegeek> soundray: sorry i dont follow
[09:20] <winbond> the sound icon stopped showinf in the menu bar , any clue how to make it comeback??
[09:20] <timmower_> runes: under linux?
[09:20] <TomekB> gnomefreak: so my only option is too backup my $HOME and do a clean install?
[09:20] <Flannel> acke: you misspelt multiverse (no l)
[09:20] <runes> timmower_, not really
[09:20] <siofwolves> how do i run it, i can only run network-manager
[09:20] <acke> 'flannel woow, thanks
[09:20] <gnomefreak> TomekB: i would do it that way
[09:20] <runes> fsck ok sec
[09:20] <gharz> can somebody tell me how to access the logs whenever i reboot my system coz i'm having problem. my system hangs and doesn't reboot. it gets stuck to deconfiguring network interfaces.
[09:21] <timmower_> runes: you comfortable with the terminal?
[09:21] <TomekB> gnomefreak: what do you recommend then?
[09:21] <dustin> what's the irc channel here for Ubuntu-XGL questions specifically?
[09:21] <NoUse> runes sudo fsck.ext3 /dev/hdx1 - I don't remeber what x should be
[09:21] <acke> FLannel where do i find the conf file_
[09:21] <Flannel> dustin: #ubuntu-xgl
[09:21] <dustin> thank you
[09:21] <soundray> lonegeek: do you get any output from 'ls -rt | tail -n 4 | xargs grep -il picasa' ?
[09:21] <runes> it said recovering journal
[09:21] <gnomefreak> TomekB: i recommend doing a clean install and only backing up personal files
[09:21] <Flannel> !tell acke about repositories
[09:22] <soundray> lonegeek: apart from error messages?
[09:22] <lonegeek> soundray: no that just brings up some file i downloaded.....and says no such file
[09:22] <uglymonke> !checkinstall
[09:22] <ubotu> [checkinstall]  http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CheckInstall
[09:22] <thespore> After upgrading to Dapper, I cannot connect to a windows share (on MSHOME workgroup), where I previously was able to.  I just use the Places->Connect to Server->Windows Share->Private IP of PC with the share, it says smb://<IP_ADDRESS>/ is not a valid location
[09:22] <soundray> lonegeek: sorry, I forgot something
[09:22] <soundray> lonegeek: do you get any output from 'ls -rt /var/log/ | tail -n 4 | xargs grep -il picasa' ?
[09:22] <Scorpmoon> tritium, i'm a noob, cc is not installed. checkinstall only said it depended on "Make" so I installed those
[09:22] <wsjunior> could anybody help me to configure my wireless card? it is a Broadcom Corporation Dell Wireless 1470 DualBand WLAN (rev 02)
[09:22] <Scorpmoon> gcc neither
[09:23] <lonegeek> 4 files with no such file or directory
[09:23] <thelostpatrol> hey
[09:23] <TomekB> gnomefreak: ok, thanks!
[09:23] <thelostpatrol> i have some questions for you guys
[09:23] <lonegeek> should i try to install picasa from source instead of deb package?
[09:23] <NoUse> runes try mounting it after it finishes
[09:23] <wsjunior> i found it is supported by ndiswrapper but the link to the driver is broken :(
[09:23] <thelostpatrol> i just installed ubuntu
[09:23] <soundray> lonegeek: no
[09:23] <tritium> Scorpmoon: you should install build-essential
[09:23] <gnomefreak> Scorpmoon: build-essential and checkinstall ;)
[09:23] <thelostpatrol> and i need to know how to get nvidia drivers installed
[09:23] <thelostpatrol> anyone?
[09:23] <NoUse> !tell thelostpatrol about nvidia
[09:23] <soundray> lonegeek: sorry, it's me getting it wrong...
[09:23] <Kiko0123> !tell Kiko0123 about ati
[09:23] <tritium> thelostpatrol: we've gone over that already, haven't we?
[09:24] <soundray> lonegeek: 'cd /var/log/ ; ls -rt | tail -n 4 | xargs grep -il picasa'
[09:24] <gharz> can somebody tell me how to access the logs whenever i reboot my system coz i'm having problem. my system hangs and doesn't reboot. it gets stuck to deconfiguring network interfaces.
[09:24] <runes> timmower_,  yes
[09:24] <lonegeek> soundray: auth.log    now im in directory of /var/log$
[09:24] <runes> NoUse, ok I will try
[09:24] <tritium> gharz: they're all kept in /var/log
[09:24] <freakazoid0223> i have a desktop with a radeon 9800pro will that work "right out of the box" dapper
[09:25] <soundray> lonegeek: okay, it looks like picasa isn't logging to anything in /var/log
[09:25] <Flannel> freakazoid0223: it'll work, if you want accelleration on the ATI, you'll need to install some drivers.
[09:25] <neuron_> hey
[09:25] <neuron_> i got a problem
[09:25] <freakazoid0223> ok thanks
[09:25] <lonegeek> soundray: when i type picasa from bash... it sits for about 10 seconds then nothing happens... once out of maybe 20 times license agreement message came up...but that was it
[09:25] <dustin> hey guys... question: compiz is giving me this: Window manager warning: Log level 32: could not find XKB extension. I think this is why it's crashing... can anyone tell me what this really means?

[09:26] <NoUse> dustin #ubuntu-xgl for xgl stuff
[09:26] <Flannel> dustin: #ubuntu-xgl for xgl questions
[09:26] <acke> Flannel i would prefer editing the conf file. dont remember where i find it hough
[09:26] <soundray> lonegeek: sorry, I don't know anything about picasa specifically.
[09:26] <yuheng108> hi, does anyone know how to set up the vimicro usb pc camera 301x?
[09:26] <dustin> yeah... they weren't answering over there :/
[09:26] <tritium> acke: what do you want to edit?
[09:26] <Flannel> acke: that page tells you if you scroll down a bit, or... maybe, yeah, click "editing sources form the command line" at the top.
[09:26] <yuheng108> hi, does anyone know how to set up the vimicro usb pc camera 301x?
[09:26] <eXistenZ> how can I reload fonts cache?

[09:27] <wastrel> ubuntu
[09:27] <yuheng108> does anyone know how to set up the vimicro usb pc camera 301x?

[09:27] <wastrel> hello
[09:27] <wastrel> i installed the mail notification applet
[09:27] <Aesop> Hey, does anyone know where the message that displays before you login on a tty is located?
[09:27] <soundray> neuron_: what do you want to achieve, other than switching consoles?
[09:28] <neuron_> soundray: well, it works if i sudo
[09:28] <gnomefreak> Aesop: you mean when the modules are loading?
[09:28] <runes> NoUse, ok I mounted it
[09:28] <neuron_> soundray: i got Xorg and Xgl running on two differet vt`s
[09:28] <Aesop> Nah, just the test that says 'Ubuntu 6.06 hostname'
[09:28] <neuron_> i got Xorg running for cedega
[09:28] <lee_> how can I change the time offset if I accidently told the system my bios clock is in GMT?
[09:28] <NoUse> runes anything on the drive or in lost+found?
[09:28] <runes> NoUse, but still no data just the lost+found
[09:29] <tritium> Aesop: /etc/issue ?
[09:29] <Aesop> I thought there was a way to put something there, such as ASCII art
[09:29] <Aesop> Might be it, thanks
[09:29] <NoUse> runes have you looked in lost+found?
[09:29] <runes> nope checked
[09:29] <soundray> lee_: sudo tzconfig
[09:29] <lee_> thanks
[09:29] <NoUse> runes I don't know
[09:29] <thespore> After upgrading to Dapper, I cannot connect to a windows share on my workgroup.  It says smb://<IP_ADDRESS> is not a valid location.  Help please?
[09:29] <runes> NoUse, but  the crep command shows three lines
[09:29] <soundray> lee_: see also /etc/default/rcS
[09:29] <runes> grep that is
[09:29] <NoUse> runes what lines?
[09:30] <wastrel> I would like to be able to bump the fetchmail server on my remote mail server computer from my laptop with an rsh type command.  can anyone point me to a howto on this?
[09:30] <Kaius> Gotta split.  Later guys!

[09:30] <neuron_> soundray: how can i reasign the vt`s to ctrl+alt+fx?
[09:30] <lee_> soundray, hey, that's neat. Debian's rcS is much more complicated
[09:30] <NoUse> runes what does 'df -h' show for that drive?
[09:30] <Scorpmoon> tritium, this time it got alot further, but came to an error at "checking for libz" error: not found
[09:30] <roler> there are certain chars in my gnome-terminal which aren't being shown, but I know my font can handle it. Is that a locale? How can I change mine?
[09:30] <soundray> neuron_: I don't know - it should work. Does the order matter? (ctrl-alt vs. alt-ctrl)
[09:31] <runes> NoUse, woudl you rather I post it on the post site?
[09:31] <tritium> Scorpmoon: you'll need to install that too
[09:31] <soundray> neuron_: or have you changed the location of the Ctrl key?
[09:31] <neuron_> soundray: nope, it still doenst work
[09:31] <tritium> Scorpmoon: you probably need zlib1g-dev
[09:31] <neuron_> soundray: how do i do that? :D
[09:31] <NoUse> runes if its just one line you can put it here, otherwise pastebin
[09:31] <soundray> neuron_: sometimes it ends up where Caps lock is normally
[09:31] <runes> ok pastebin it is
[09:31] <runes> sec
[09:31] <gnomefreak> tritium: what are you guys building?
[09:31] <wastrel> why isn't the mail notification applet working :p
[09:32] <eXistenZ> Is it possible to choose different window title font for other languages?
[09:32] <tritium> gnomefreak: I don't even know ;)
[09:32] <gnomefreak> im thinking build-dep ;)
[09:32] <soundray> neuron_: there are options in xorg.conf and in System-Prefs-Keyboard Prefs-Layout Options
[09:32] <tritium> gnomefreak: it's not a source package, though
[09:32] <eXistenZ> gnomefreak, Can you help me with this?
[09:32] <gnomefreak> ah
[09:32] <tritium> Scorpmoon: what are we building
[09:32] <gnomefreak> eXistenZ: with what?
[09:32] <tritium> ?
[09:32] <bob1111> anyone have any expeience getting wireless to work with ubuntu
[09:32] <neuron_> soundray: where do i fhind theese setting in kde?
[09:32] <cartur25> It says that my laptop screen's max resolution is 1200x800 - what happens if I set it to 1600x1200?
[09:32] <Scorpmoon> i am building http://ksocrat.linux.kiev.ua/

[09:33] <NoUse> runes I dont know what happened
[09:33] <Weirdbro> During boot-up, it switched out of graphic boot-info with the splash to text. Why would that happen? It never happened before.
[09:33] <NoUse> runes doesn't look good

[09:34] <bob1111> tritium: i cant seem to get internet working though
[09:34] <thelostpatrol> help! :P
[09:34] <Aesop> tritium, Thanks. Knew it was there somewhere, but I was thinking it was MOTD
[09:34] <tritium> Aesop: :)
[09:34] <Flannel> thelostpatrol: right click on the top one "add panel" then drag it to the bottom, then right click on it, and "add to panel"
[09:34] <runes> NoUse, this si the second time after reinstalling that I lose the ext3 partition only to find that it shows the exact amount of data used that I saved to it
[09:34] <kane77> thelostpatrol, try right click and select new panel...
[09:34] <wastrel> soundray:  tha works 100%
[09:34] <thespore> After upgrading to Dapper, I cannot connect to a windows share on my workgroup.  It says smb://<IP_ADDRESS> is not a valid location.  Help please?
[09:34] <tritium> bob1111: what hardware?
[09:34] <soundray> Weirdbro: it happens occasionally when there are unusual things to report, like fsck results.
[09:34] <gnomefreak> thelostpatrol: right clicka nd add one
[09:34] <thelostpatrol> don't have that option
[09:34] <Weirdbro> soundray: Thanks
[09:34] <wastrel> now i just need to get the mail-notification thingy working.
[09:34] <Scorpmoon> tritium, this time "X includes" :-)
[09:34] <cartur25> It says that my laptop screen's max resolution is 1200x800 - what happens if I set it to 1600x1200?
[09:34] <tritium> thelostpatrol: is that IP address right?
[09:35] <thelostpatrol> what
[09:35] <neuron_> soundray: my ctrl seems to be asigned to <None>
[09:35] <gnomefreak> brb gonna play on sources forge i need something to build lol
[09:35] <tritium> Scorpmoon: what are we building?
[09:35] <Flannel> thespore, not thelostpatrol
[09:35] <kiko0123> !tell kiko0123 ati
[09:35] <bob1111> tritium: its a compaq laptop, I'd have to boot it into windows to get hardware specifics, i don't know how to do that in linux
[09:35] <thelostpatrol> oh, hehe
[09:35] <runes> NoUse, normally I'd just format but since I want to use Ubuntu for a production server I have to knwo the how and why I can't remount
[09:35] <thespore> tritium, yes ;)
[09:35] <soundray> neuron_: that would explain it! :)
[09:35] <clin1> how do I access the Bootloader Administration?
[09:35] <Scorpmoon> tritium, Ksocrat from http://ksocrat.linux.kiev.ua/
[09:35] <NoUse> runes cd to the dir you have the drive mounted  to and run 'ls -a *'
[09:35] <Stormx2> cartur25: Your video card will melt
[09:35] <neuron_> soundray: you were the first person tu figure this out
[09:35] <timmower_> thespore: I am having the same problem with samba
[09:35] <tritium> !info ksocrat dapper
[09:35] <ubotu> ksocrat: (English/Russian and Russian/English Dictionary), section universe/text, is optional. Version: 3.2.1-1ubuntu1 (dapper), Packaged size: 35 kB, Installed size: 244 kB
[09:35] <tritium> Scorpmoon: ^^
[09:35] <tritium> It's in dapper
[09:35] <kane77> clin1, sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst... that's the only one I know of...
[09:36] <timmower_> thespore: but noone else seems to acknowledge it
[09:36] <Scorpmoon> ehh
[09:36] <clin1> The help says "You can start Bootloader Administration Tool in the following ways: Applications menu   Choose System Tools  Boot." but that does not exist
[09:36] <thespore> timmower_, well.. i can verify it :)
[09:36] <soundray> neuron_, sometimes it needs someone who has had diagnostic training ;)
[09:36] <timmower_> thespore: i think I am going to try building samba from source
[09:36] <runes> NoUse, . and ..
[09:36] <eXistenZ> gnomefreak, How is it possible to install the driver of ATI 9200? As the gnome guide works only for 9500+ ?
[09:36] <Stormx2> tritium: Me too.
[09:36] <Scorpmoon> if I try to inistall ksocrat with synaptic, i am told ksocrat-data can't be installed with apt-get
[09:36] <NoUse> rune it should have lost+found there too
[09:36] <kiko0123> !tell kiko0123 about ati
[09:36] <timmower_> thespore: I have tried encrypted passwords, copying a known good config from gentoo linux, and security = share
[09:36] <neuron_> soundray: but when i try to setxkbmap -option -option ctrl:ctrl_aa i get setxkbmap -option -option ctrl:ctrl_aa Use defaults: rules - 'xorg' model - 'pc101' layout - 'us' Couldn't find rules file (xorg)
[09:36] <gnomefreak> eXistenZ: i dont do ati they are un fun ;) nvidia easy
[09:36] <kiko0123> !tell about kiko0123 ati
[09:37] <timmower_> thespore: or I might be switching from ubuntu
[09:37] <gnomefreak> eXistenZ: im thinking use the atibinaryhowto it will have one for that
[09:37] <runes> NoUse, it seems almost as if the original ext3 partition is hidden or that the data is..strange though as I formatted the drive completely in ext 3 two days ago prior to loading my backup data to it
[09:37] <tritium> Scorpmoon: you've updated your package list?
[09:37] <eXistenZ> gnomefreak, video drivers are fucked up in linux
[09:37] <Scorpmoon> yes i think so
[09:37] <clin1> this does not make sense
[09:37] <tritium> Scorpmoon: works fine here
[09:37] <Flannel> eXistenZ: watch your language
[09:37] <gnomefreak> eXistenZ: language  please and only ati
[09:37] <clin1> why would the help tell me to do something I can not do?
[09:37] <tritium> Scorpmoon: make sure you update it
[09:38] <acke> Flannel i cant figure out the second error though http://pasteit.org/view.php?num=28
[09:38] <soundray> neuron_: not sure what to make of that. Are you sure pc101 is what you need?
[09:38] <Scorpmoon> tritium by that you mean press Reload in synaptic?
[09:38] <tritium> Scorpmoon: yeah
[09:38] <Scorpmoon> so I did
[09:38] <runes> NoUse, I am going to redownload the util from Maxtor just as a sanity check even though I did a week ago it is still possible that the drive is failing
[09:38] <wastrel> i'm trying to figure out why mail-notification isn't seeing new mail at my imap inbox - anyone good at troubleshooting imap?
[09:38] <NoUse> runes ok
[09:38] <soundray> neuron_: maybe set different kb types in 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[09:38] <Scorpmoon> you try and mark ksocrat for installation, you will get the same error msg?
[09:38] <Flannel> acke: you using se.archive.ubuntu.com for anything else?
[09:39] <DaveyJ> opinion time..
[09:39] <bob1111> tritium: Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG WLAN
[09:39] <tritium> eXistenZ: oh no you didn't...
[09:39] <acke> FLannel, i have no idea of what i use for anything
[09:39] <DaveyJ> what do you think is the best irc client for gnome?
[09:39] <wastrel> Davey:  xchat
[09:39] <eXistenZ> :)
[09:39] <tritium> bob1111: that should work out of the box, with no hassle
[09:39] <Ohzie> Does anybody else have really buggy and slow video playback, that they've managed to solve?
[09:39] <DaveyJ> i'm using that now.. but i cant seem to connect to my BNC through it
[09:39] <neuron_> soundray: does that totaly replace my xorg.conf file or just updates it?
[09:39] <DaveyJ> wont let me specify the port
[09:39] <DaveyJ> tried host/port
[09:39] <DaveyJ> still doesnt work
[09:39] <tritium> !enter
[09:39] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[09:39] <administrador> #ubuntu-es
[09:40] <Flannel> acke: well, you're editing that file, right?  do you see any other se.archive urls?
[09:40] <soundray> neuron_: it creates a new one, using the old one for defaults.
[09:40] <wastrel> Davey:  try host:port
[09:40] <DaveyJ> i tried that too
[09:40] <neuron_> oh, so if i have some modified settings they will be kept

[09:51] <tritium> bob1111: ok
[09:51] <Samus_Aran> how can I make Synaptic not think that the system is broken because of this missing package ?  it keeps uninstalling Opera
[09:51] <_absolution_> I still can't access my friggin folders.....
[09:52] <Samus_Aran> -the

[09:54] <nootrope> um... where's the default place to install new apps? i just D/L'ed Thunderbird and the release notes just say to extract it and run it. Any opinions where it should live?
[09:54] <Scorpmoon> how do I install a .deb file
[09:55] <acke> HEEEY guys ubuntu 6.06 boots on my acer TM 4670 but ubuntu 5.10 does not.. Its great news, couse no other distro (pretty much) even boots as live cds (knoppix for ex does not)
[09:55] <LjL> nootrope: don't extract it, and don't run it
[09:55] <Hexidigital_> !dpkg
[09:55] <ubotu> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Hexidigital_
[09:55] <jenda> Scorpmoon: sudo dpkg -i aoeu.deb
[09:55] <Cin> How do you force what version of a package you want to install with apt-get?
[09:55] <LjL> nootrope: just type "sudo aptitude install mozilla-thunderbird"
[09:55] <Scorpmoon> can I install it from an URL too
[09:55] <Samus_Aran> Hexidigital_: I would just use MPlayer for streaming video ... it can handle everything out there.  wmv/asf, quicktime, realplayer, etc.
[09:55] <lnx^> hmm strange
[09:55] <nootrope> LjL: thanks. i knew i messed up somehow
[09:55] <jenda> Scorpmoon: no harm in trying. dunno.
[09:55] <Hexidigital_> Samus_Aran:: thanks, much appreciated
[09:55] <Scorpmoon> ok
[09:55] <lnx^> hibernating stopped working suddenly

[09:57] <eugman> Anyone know how I can setup content filtering?
[09:57] <TMT[fi] > So no1 have no idea how to stop that dsp value changing in every boot? :(
[09:57] <lnx^> any idea about my problem?
[09:57] <siofwolves> mine too
[09:57] <Samus_Aran> Hexidigital_: mplayer can be used on the command line as "mplayer rtsp://foo.com/blah.rm  mms://bar.com/foo.asf" or you can use the GUI by running "gmplayer"
[09:57] <alamba> eugman: squid/squidguard
[09:58] <Samus_Aran> Hexidigital_: or just install the MPlayer plugin for Mozilla, then it will work in your browsers
[09:58] <LjL> Y
[09:58] <Hexidigital_> Samus_Aran:: excellent
[09:58] <thelostpatrol> next question: how do i install a .run file that i downloaded onto the desktop?
[09:58] <thelostpatrol> it's nvidia drivers
[09:58] <mgorbach228> is there an easy way to set up networkmanager with wpa in dapper?
[09:59] <mgorbach228> thelostpatrol, i think thats just a normal script
[09:59] <Scorpmoon> would an i386.deb file install on a 64bit os?
[09:59] <mgorbach228> run it from the command line
[09:59] <Sivik> ok, when i try to ssh into a machine, it says the host key verification failed, how do i fix that?
[09:59] <tritium> mgorbach228: it already uses wpasupplicant
[09:59] <siofwolves> mgorbach228 i have the same problem as you
[09:59] <mgorbach228> im looking at a guide here and it seems its a huge pain
[09:59] <Samus_Aran> so does anyone know how I can go about preventing Synaptic from thinking that the "opera" package is broken, when all it is missing is a dummy package that no longer exists which just links to two libs I have installed ?
[09:59] <mgorbach228> you need to get CVS version of networkmanager and WPA_supplicant
[09:59] <tritium> mgorbach228: on dapper, just install and use
[10:00] <mgorbach228> it works out of the box with dapper LTS?
[10:00] <graveson> is there any documentatation for configuring DVB's -if so where can i find it
[10:00] <tritium> mgorbach228: it should, yes
[10:00] <Scorpmoon> if I install a .deb file, can I delete it after installation?
[10:00] <mgorbach228> hmm ... why the big long guide here then
[10:00] <mgorbach228> http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Network_Manager_with_WPA
[10:00] <tritium> Scorpmoon: yes, you can
[10:00] <thelostpatrol> i don't know how to get it running
[10:00] <timmower_> all i want to do is get samba file sharing working - takes 10 minutes on every distro I have ever used, except ubuntu.  What gives?
[10:00] <tritium> mgorbach228: that's not an ubuntu site
[10:00] <thelostpatrol> the .run file
[10:00] <Inf3ctedFx> Hello everyone
[10:01] <thelostpatrol> it tells me it can't run
[10:01] <Inf3ctedFx> anyone knows about "smart" does ubuntu need it? or there is one for ubuntu?
[10:01] <timmower_> does anyone think it will be worth building samba from source
[10:01] <tritium> timmower_: it's no different
[10:01] <mgorbach228> hmm ... well tritium i hope you are right ... gonna go home now and give that a try on my girlfriends laptop
[10:01] <Mgjs> Does anyone have some experience with TwinView? For some reason I can only get a signal to one of my monitors. Got my xorg.conf here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15414
[10:02] <tritium> timmower_: no, just install the package, and use
[10:02] <TMT[fi] > thelostpatrol: sudo ./path/file.run
[10:02] <mgorbach228> do i need to install wpa supplicant?
[10:02] <thelostpatrol> thanks
[10:02] <bob1111> tritium: it's a Broadcom 802.11b/g WLAN
[10:02] <tritium> mgorbach228: no, it's a dependency, so it will get installed anyway
[10:02] <LjL> Inf3ctedFx: smart what? it's a quite generic term :)
[10:02] <mgorbach228> so i just install networkmanager?
[10:02] <tritium> bob1111: oh, I see.  And dapper isn't liking it?
[10:02] <timmower_> tritium: something must be different. It is just completely refusing to work
[10:02] <wastrel> gnubiff is teh schweet
[10:02] <tritium> mgorbach228: you might also grab the gnome version of it
[10:03] <mgorbach228> right ... the applet?
[10:03] <tritium> timmower_: what is not working?
[10:03] <Inf3ctedFx> LjL: smart package manager like pakman or gorub or something like that
[10:03] <Inf3ctedFx> !smart
[10:03] <ubotu> hmm... smart is Install the smartmontools package and check out http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Monitor_your_hard_disk(s)_with_smartmontools
[10:03] <bob1111> tritium: right, I also tried plugging into my router directly with no success either
[10:03] <tritium> mgorbach228: network-manager-gnome
[10:03] <mgorbach228> ok
[10:03] <tritium> bob1111: it should be suported on dapper, but you have to try ndiswrapper
[10:04] <LjL> Inf3ctedFx: i don't know what those are. there are a few "package managers" for Ubuntu, not sure they're what you have in mind... Synaptic, apt-get, Adept
[10:04] <bob1111> tritium: I have no idea what that is
[10:04] <CrippsFX> !last.fm
[10:04] <ubotu> CrippsFX: Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:04] <CrippsFX> damn
[10:04] <Scorpmoon> !lastfm is http://people.debian.org/~pxt//lastfm/
[10:04] <ubotu> Scorpmoon: okay
[10:04] <tritium> bob1111: it allows you to use the windows drivers, essentially
[10:04] <fuffalo> can i sync a palm treo (windows mobile os) with anything in linux(specifically on ubuntu)?
[10:05] <Inf3ctedFx> LjL:  look http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_Package_Manager
[10:05] <bob1111> tritium: how would i go about performing tihs operation
[10:05] <wsjunior> hello i cant get my wireless card working. i found the driver installed it and ndiswrapper -l says that the drive and the hardware are present, but i cant see a wlan0 with ifconfig. what could be happening?
[10:05] <tritium> bob1111: I'm not sure if you can on the LivecD.  You certainly can on an installed setup
[10:06] <wsjunior> what more do i have to configure to have my wireless card working?
[10:06] <acke> Hey guys, the system monitor only shows one processor. does that mean ubuntu only finds one or does it mean that the system monitor only knows/shows one of them???
[10:06] <LjL> Inf3ctedFx: i see. it doesn't look like it's a very widespread thing... if it were for me, i would stay clear of it (or any other package manager that bypasses the native system)
[10:06] <roler> how can i make gnome-terminal display all characters, not just low ascii?
[10:06] <bob1111> tritium: i was going to install anyway, so thats fine, but would you recommend I partition my drive with a partitioning software first since I want to dual boot with windows?
[10:06] <Bladedge> acke, What's your hardware config
[10:06] <Inf3ctedFx> ok LjL  thx now last question what do u think about XGl from novell??
[10:07] <graveson> does anyone know a workaround to SBM not recognising external USB CD-ROM to install Ubuntu
[10:07] <Inf3ctedFx> can I install xgl on ubuntu the last version?
[10:07] <wsjunior> hello i cant get my wireless card working. i found the driver installed it and ndiswrapper -l says that the drive and the hardware are present, but i cant see a wlan0 with ifconfig. what could be happening?
[10:07] <LjL> Inf3ctedFx: that it looks nice, but that it's quite far from being usable right now
[10:07] <Tmob> hi, anyone know how to forward NFS thru ssh tunnel?
[10:07] <Inf3ctedFx> ohh ok
[10:08] <eXistenZ> what is a kernel module
[10:08] <wsjunior> eXistenZ: it is a driver for some piece of hardware to work under linux.
[10:08] <eXistenZ> ah
[10:09] <wildman> lo *
[10:09] <bob1111> tritium: i was going to install anyway, so thats fine, but would you recommend I partition my drive with a partitioning software first since I want to dual boot with windows?
[10:09] <wildman> does anyone know the ubuntu 'equivalents' of chkconfig and service ?
[10:09] <kthakore> Anyone here use a ati 9200se on 6.06
[10:10] <wildman> chkconfig is used to add/remove services from boot startup list
[10:10] <wildman> and service is used to control those services (service bla start, for example)
[10:10] <wsjunior> wildman: they are at /etc/init.d/
[10:10] <wildman> the services management applet in ubuntu 6.06 doesn't list all services on /etc/init.d...
[10:10] <biberao> hey
[10:11] <biberao> how could i make a partition for data?
[10:11] <wildman> wsjunior: I know, but how do I set a particular one to run automatically at system boot?
[10:11] <blue-frog> wildman: you do it by hand
[10:11] <squiddle> wildman  there is bum if you don't feel offended of a gui
[10:11] <wildman> squiddle: I don't
[10:11] <searayman> how do i install java run time enviroment?
[10:11] <blue-frog> wildman man update-rc.d
[10:11] <wildman> trying
[10:11] <LjL> !javadebs
[10:11] <ubotu> In Breezy: j2re1.4 is in multiverse. In Dapper: sun-java5-jre is in multiverse
[10:11] <acke> <-- inluvwithubuntu
[10:11] <wildman> blue-frog: thx
[10:11] <wsjunior> wildman: i see. i thing every file there with x permission will be executed at startup
[10:11] <wsjunior> think*
[10:12] <wildman> wsjunior: not sure, still didn't reboot ;)
[10:12] <acke> Bladedge dual core T2500
[10:12] <blue-frog> wildman: update-rc.d mysqld start 2 3 4 5 . stop 0 1 6 .             for example
[10:12] <biberao> hello pls?
[10:12] <jbirdAngel> lol whats up with my battery time tester? im plugged in right now but i have over 29 hours of battery it says?
[10:12] <kthakore> Anyone know why i am not geting full 3d acceleration out of my ati 9200se on 6.06
[10:12] <wildman> blue-frog: ah... I think chkconfig is then a frontend to it.
[10:12] <wildman> thx a lot blue-frog!
[10:12] <jbirdAngel> or does linux use that much less power than windows ;)
[10:12] <blue-frog> wildman: the name of the serice must match one  listed in /etc/inint.d
[10:12] <wsjunior> kthakore: because ati is crap
[10:12] <wildman> blue-frog: yep, gotcha
[10:12] <kthakore> lol
[10:12] <wsjunior> kthakore: same thing here
[10:12] <Bladedge> acke, Oh, so it's a DUO
[10:12] <LjL> !ati
[10:12] <ubotu> from memory, ati is http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/hardware.html#installatidriver or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI ... the radeon 9200 and below are supported by the open-source drivers
[10:13] <kthakore> thats true but do u know what i can do
[10:13] <jbirdAngel> jumped through the first 25 hours pretty quick when i unpluged
[10:13] <Bladedge> acke, Install some other system monitor, for example ksysguard
[10:13] <wsjunior> kthakore: u can try to read the link above and pray to make it work.
[10:13] <kthakore> ok thax man
[10:13] <acke> Bladedge okay ty
[10:13] <Bladedge> acke, np
[10:14] <blue-frog> wildman: chkconfig and services are a suse, redhat hing afaik

[10:14] <wsjunior> krispo: maybe ubuntu-es
[10:15] <void^> wsjunior: you need to load the ndiswrapper module (and unload any other modules for the device first)
[10:15] <wsjunior> blue-frog: yes, eth1 but it doesnt work :(
[10:15] <blue-frog> wsjunior: you need to configure it

[10:17] <LjL> !anyone
[10:17] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? </hint>
[10:17] <Redent> i know this is probs a wide spread problem but i have no sound
[10:17] <wildman> blue-frog: chkconfig and service are in Mandriva too ;)
[10:17] <Redent> anyone? pleasE?
[10:18] <wildman> Redent: more details?
[10:18] <Flannel> Redent: we can't help you until you ask a question
[10:18] <void^> wsjunior: there should be more than that. if not, there's probably another driver loaded.
[10:18] <wsjunior> well i give it up configuring wireless awhile.. ill try the bluetooth
[10:18] <_absolution_> where do I log in as root?
[10:18] <LjL> !root
[10:18] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[10:18] <wsjunior> void^: there is just that there
[10:18] <Redent> ok, my onboard sound isn;t being detected
[10:18] <Redent> therefor, no sound
[10:19] <wsjunior> void^: which driver could be? its a broadcom 4319
[10:19] <wildman> Redent: sudo lspci and try to figure out which sound card (onboard or not) you have?
[10:19] <Redent> i know
[10:19] <wildman> Redent: so ppl has an idea of which one you have
[10:19] <Redent> i have the folliwng chipse

[10:25] <Healot> it is half-closed port... well not intended to be use on the  Internet
[10:25] <dpod> bob1111: there is a fair bit of info on that on the mailing lists. You might be better looking there, since some are real step-by-steps.
[10:26] <EnsilZah> After installing the driver and rebooting the computer gets stuck on a black screen when starting x.
[10:26] <Hexidigital_> anyone know where i could find the character map in dapper? i need to find a symbol for a german word
[10:26] <bob1111> thanks gor the info
[10:26] <bob1111> for
[10:26] <SeanTater> bob1111: bcm4318 can be tricky in other distros, but it was fairly easy in ubuntu -- for the other bcm models, I do not know -- read !broadcom
[10:27] <dpod> Has anybody else had a problem with LTS knocking out working eth0 from Breezy? I.e. losing wired internet after updating.

[10:28] <assasukasse> i need some help about sleep, my laptop goes on sleep fine, and wakes up fine, but doesn't go sleep anymore during that session...what to do? how can i check which module gives the defect?
[10:28] <kthakore> Redent: how do I figure out the chisset
[10:28] <kthakore> Redent: I think it is 9200se
[10:29] <Redent> google it for the make and model of ur PC or laptop
[10:29] <SeanTater> kthakore: what chipset are you trying to find -- lspci might help
[10:29] <Redent> unless it's home built in which case do lspnp -v i believe
[10:29] <dpod> SeanTater I had it work fine on one box and not on the other. Weird thing is I've never had trouble with eth on Ubuntu before.
[10:30] <Redent> can anyone help? my sound aint working on my laptop under ubuntu, chipset <kthakore> wsjunior: I have done everything on the link and I get 3d stuff, but I don't get the speed as I used to in breezy

[10:30] <ompaul> Redent, please do not do that again.
[10:31] <Redent> i aint doing it on perpose :(
[10:31] <assasukasse> could someone tell me how can i identify which module stops my laptop from going sleep after the first sleep?
[10:31] <graveson> does anyone know a workaround to SBM not recognising external USB CD-ROM to install Ubuntu
[10:31] <ompaul> Redent, well copy the letter A into a buffer and remove that other stuff thanks
[10:31] <Redent> snd-opl3sa2 ,_ thats the chipset for the onbored sound card that isn't being detected, any idea please?
[10:32] <freakazoid0223> redent have you tried posting to the forums , they get checked quite often
[10:32] <SeanTater> dpod: ping
[10:32] <amortvigil> help when i installed ubuntu breeze today it gave an error in installing packets at 84% lucky enough i could already get into gnome i was wondering if i update to the new ubuntu if i get all packet
[10:32] <SeanTater> dpod: still here?
[10:32] <Redent> yep, and tried all the work arounds
[10:32] <ompaul> Redent, or https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users join that and ask there actually search it
[10:32] <dpod> SeanTater: No luck. I'm noogetting a DHCPDiscover. I'm guessing it must be a config file but don't know where to start looking. I am getting a problem with postconf as part of the ifdown or network restart
[10:33] <EnsilZah> Can anyone help me with the nvidia driver then?       I tried installing it in many ways and every time after rebooting it gets stuck on a black screen when starting x,  there's also this line in the log file: "(EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not found)"
[10:33] <dpod> The error is postco: fatal: open /etc/postfix/main.cf
[10:33] <SeanTater> dpod -- it looks like dhcp is not there
[10:33] <SeanTater> dpod: do you have a router?
[10:34] <zorgluuu> q. where is the lock for the .deb database. my adept seems to hit it, even if apparently i got no other application running on the database. my guess is that a lock file has been forgotten
[10:34] <dpod> SeanTater: yes. The problem is that it isn't receiving a DHCP offer. And if I give it a fixed IP I still get nothing.
[10:34] <zenithsN00b> I literally have a fetish for grammar checking... thought you might chuckle at that... abiword doesn't seem to be doing it in Dapper... what is working?
[10:35] <SeanTater> dpod: okay -- you can only give it a static IP if you are behind a router -- assuming you are -- you'll need to put in DNS too, did you do that?
[10:35] <dpod> Checking...

[10:35] <amortvigil> what is the link to update ubuntu to ddapper?
[10:35] <amortvigil> for terminal
[10:35] <Gistybit> hm.. when trying to run the "Disks-admin" program i get the following error. "line 107 parser error, input is not proper UTF-8, indicate encoding!". Then it lists a <model>LIT?-ON L?44?dL?dL?</model> which is my cd rom drive.. but how do i fix this?
[10:35] <SeanTater> ubotu tell amortvigil about upgrade
[10:36] <wildman> amortvigil: redefine apt-get sources and apt-get upgrade ?

[10:36] <kikuro> I've got a problem to install ubuntu 6.06 from fedora core 5, can someone help me?
[10:36] <graveson> is there any documentatation for configuring DVB's and mythtv -if so where can i find it
[10:36] <kthakore> whenever i restart my compy My keyboard's delete key don't work
[10:36] <amortvigil> wildman: how do i do that?
[10:36] <dpod> SeanTater: there was an entry already: it points to the router. Right now I'm still looking for dhcp, since that's what I've always done and since it only caused problems after the upgrade.
[10:37] <tr1gg3r> zorgluuu: likely in /var/lock somewhere, but u should try ps aux and look for adept dpkg or apt processing using
[10:37] <wildman> amortvigil: euh... this is my 2nd day on Ubuntu and am not yet fully accustomed to apt, sorry.
[10:37] <wildman> amortvigil: sorry, maybe some of the Ubuntu gurus here can give you more precise instructions
[10:38] <kyle> hello
[10:38] <SeanTater> dpod: good -- the dns server should ususally point to the router -- but for dhcp -- try the following in a terminal ans pastebin it's output
[10:38] <ompaul> amortvigil, chage the word breezy into dapper with the help of sed or sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list; then >>sudo apt-get update&& sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[10:38] <SeanTater> dpod: find /usr/sbin -name '*dhcp*'

[10:38] <kyle> what can u do with this ubnutu??
[10:38] <zorgluuu> tr1gg3r, looking without sucess
[10:39] <ompaul> DShepherd, the question was in a terminal
[10:39] <SeanTater> dpod: sorry -- that won't work

[10:39] <Nixdorf> anyone know smart boot manager? i need boot from external usb dvd-rom !

[10:39] <brighteyes_fan> yo
[10:39] <DShepherd> ompaul: ok
[10:39] <ompaul> DShepherd, and my understanding is that update-manager -d will move you to edgy (way before its ready to do be used by a computer let alone a human)

[10:40] <DShepherd> ompaul: really?? are you sure?
[10:40] <ekp> hi

[10:44] <Flannel> kthakore: read that page, it discusses it.
[10:44] <SeanTater> rambo3: if you want to hear junk from a bot, say @chuck in #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:44] <MisterN> ompaul: who was faster?
[10:44] <ekp> Dshepard: is that for only the open apps?   I would like to setting for panel by default.
[10:44] <ompaul> ekp, you would be better asking the channel as I don't have an answer for that
[10:44] <ekp> not just current session
[10:44] <kthakore> Flannel: thanx a lot buddy
[10:44] <kthakore> Flannel: ps will it work for win 98
[10:44] <ompaul> ekp, unless ps auwx | less in a terminal
[10:44] <Gistybit> When trying to run the "Disks-admin" program i get the following error. "line 107 parser error, input is not proper UTF-8, indicate encoding!". Then it lists a <model>LIT?-ON L?44?dL?dL?</model> which is my cd rom drive.. but how do i fix this?
[10:44] <Flannel> kthakore: yeah
[10:45] <ekp> ompaul: thnks
[10:45] <kthakore> Tell me about ati
[10:45] <ompaul> once upon at time there was a video card
[10:45] <ompaul> !ati
[10:45] <ubotu> ati is, like, totally, http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/hardware.html#installatidriver or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI ... the radeon 9200 and below are supported by the open-source drivers
[10:45] <wildman> lol
[10:46] <glennh> !username
[10:46] <ubotu> glennh: Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:46] <Installer36> Could my desktop problems..Freezing be caused when I do the updates..I just reinstalled Dapper and have no freezing like I have been having the past 9 days..But Ihave yet to do the updates.I have tried new clean installs and upgrade and I get the same results ie.I can log in then get theboot splash then the desktop freezes before Application,Places, System.
[10:46] <kthakore> cool
[10:46] <ompaul> glennh, what are you trying to figure out
[10:46] <ekp> I would also like to edit xorg.conf but do not see setting for verticle and horizontal refresh.........just make of monitor
[10:46] <glennh> ompaul: trying to find a way to change the username for an account.
[10:46] <amortvigil> isnt there a comman line action to install ubuntu dapper
[10:46] <wildman> Gistybit: try: export LANG=C && export LANGUAGE=C && export LC_ALL=C
[10:46] <_antix> ekp: google the monitor?
[10:46] <wildman> Gistybit: then try to run the prog again
[10:47] <amortvigil> ompaul: this wont work it gives errors of a cd all the times
[10:47] <ekp> I know the specs but want to edit xorg.conf
[10:47] <wildman> Gistybit: if you get output fine, then maybe the prog has a 'bug' cuz it's not 'utf8-ified' properly
[10:47] <lab> Ubuntu refuses to read my NTFS drives and show them in /dev/
[10:47] <lab> What should I do ?
[10:47] <ekp> have done it before in other distros
[10:47] <ompaul> glennh, that is a nasty idea, ownship of files and all that, create a new user and copy materials to it
[10:47] <wildman> Gistybit: or maybe the terminal does have the bug
[10:47] <IcemanV9> ekp: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf &
[10:47] <glennh> ompaul: okay, thanks.
[10:47] <Gistybit> wildman: ok.. thx.. (it also happend through the ubuntu gnome menu)
[10:47] <ompaul> glennh,  chown -R username:username .* for the home directory
[10:48] <Gistybit> checking now
[10:48] <ompaul> amortvigil, you not got a cd so you put a # in front of the line that points at the C
[10:48] <glennh> ompaul: do that after the new account is created to chown everything?
[10:48] <ompaul> amortvigil,  CD that is
 xorg.conf does not have entry for refresh rates which seems odd to me
[10:48] <ekp> just monitor type
[10:48] <Tmob> anyone using skypehere ?
[10:49] <ekp> must use modelines?
[10:49] <Gistybit> wildman: didnt help.. its a gnome application so i get no other output than the error
[10:49] <ompaul> glennh, yeap and I strongly suggest you do copy files to the new user
[10:49] <DShepherd> lab have you tried mounting them yourself?
[10:49] <adamant1988> Hey, when I download some programs from synaptic (because the Add/remove programs button doesn't show them) in the multi and universe repos I can't get them to start.  the problem child in particular is tuxcart
[10:49] <glennh> ompaul: alright, thank you very much.
[10:49] <wildman> Gistybit: oh, I thought it was a CLI app
[10:49] <speyer> hi all
[10:49] <adamant1988> Does anyone know how to get tuxcart started... even from a CLI?
[10:49] <Tmob> i have it running on amd64... but keep getting some sound device error
[10:49] <ompaul> glennh, don't delete the other one until you are 101% sure
[10:49] <Tmob> anyone know how to fix this?
[10:49] <speyer> what do i need to be able to make a audio cd with k3b from a mp3 file ?
[10:49] <mjr> adamant1988, "tuxkart"
[10:49] <lab> DShepherd: yes many times
[10:49] <Gistybit> wildman: no its the diskmanager from System -> Administration -> Disks
[10:49] <inrelief> is there any way to shut off cpu frequency scaling when my notebook is plugged in?  it seems silly to scale back the cpu w/an unlimited power supply.
[10:49] <ekp> IcemanY9:  the problem I am having is scan lines when scrolling pages
[10:50] <wildman> Gistybit: wait plz
[10:50] <lab> DShepherd: I get errors saying that I need some NTFS plugin (from gParted)
[10:50] <adamant1988> ok, just a second
[10:50] <Scorpmoon> my ubuntu screensaver runs at like 1 fps, on a p3 800mhz with geforce 4 mx
[10:50] <glennh> ompaul: will do.  thanks for the help.
[10:50] <Scorpmoon> do I need to update my drivers?
[10:50] <ekp> so I want to change refresh rate from the default
[10:50] <DShepherd> lab: what are you trying to do exactlY?
[10:50] <lab> DShepherd: and then when I try to mount /dev/hdb1 it just says mount: special device /dev/hdb1 does not exist
[10:50] <IcemanV9> ekp: i used modelines as i found it at its webpage (like viewsonic)
[10:50] <adamant1988> wow, I was mispelling it mjr... lol.
[10:50] <lab> DShepherd: mount an nfts drive to read only
[10:50] <speyer> why i am not able to make a audio cd with k3b from mp3 files ? what package do i need ?
[10:50] <DShepherd> lab: maybe because it doent
[10:50] <wildman> Gistybit: strange, I have an UTF-8 environment set and I can run it w/o pbs at all
[10:50] <DShepherd> !tell lab about ntfs
[10:50] <wildman> Gistybit: 6.06 LTS x86_64 here
[10:50] <ompaul> ekp, read the message from the bot
[10:51] <Gistybit> wildman: me too, when the cdromdrive is not connected..
[10:51] <Gistybit> wildman: it seems like the cdrom drive's modelname fucks it's config file up
[10:51] <DShepherd> lab: what ubotu told you should get you thru the mounting of ntfs
[10:51] <speyer> no one knows ?
[10:51] <ompaul> !language
[10:51] <mjr> inrelief, yes there is, though I don't think it's been made easy. Anyway, grid power is not unlimited and there's no reason to waste it
[10:51] <ubotu> Please watch your language. We try to be nice and help but some of us don't like to see such things on our screen.
[10:51] <speyer> wtf is this
[10:51] <lab> DShepherd: thanks,
[10:51] <wildman> Gistybit: no foul lang plz
[10:51] <ompaul> Gistybit, please mind your language
[10:51] <dpo1> SeanTater: Thought turning the router on and off worked, but it didn't. I'm wondering about this missing /etc/postfix/main.cf error I'm getting from postconf during ifdown eth0
[10:51] <Gistybit> wildman: ompaul: sry..
[10:51] <ompaul> speyer, that is also not liked
[10:51] <DShepherd> speyer: you need a package. let me tell you the name
[10:51] <mjr> it's not like the scaling back is usually noticable
[10:51] <amortvigil> ompaul: i got a better solution i use synaptic to firsst install all packages who have not been installed correctly
[10:51] <amortvigil> then ill update
[10:52] <IcemanV9> ekp: i played a lot with xorg.conf 'til i got it right. o_O
[10:52] <wildman> Gistybit: stupid Q: are you sure your CD is jumpered properly?
[10:52] <speyer> DShepherd yes please
[10:52] <valehru> im using gproftpd to set up my ftp server, is there anyway I can encrypt whatever is being downloaded from my server so that it's not seen over the network?
[10:52] <inrelief> mjr, ahh, the environmentalist respone ;).  anyhoo - thanks for the feedback...i'll keep googling around
 I am having problems with scan lines I think a problem with refresh?
[10:52] <wildman> Gistybit: I mean, does it work when connected? (appart from the fact that the disk admin shows gibberish)
[10:52] <siofwolves> how do I start network-manager-gnome ?
[10:52] <Gistybit> wildman: well it worked and burned just finde under windows.. but i'll doublecheck
[10:52] <DShepherd> speyer: libk3b2-mp3 <-- thats the name. and please.. what your language the next time, thanks
[10:52] <amortvigil> ompaul: yeah diddnt knwo i could install all packages which is misses
[10:52] <DShepherd> what- watch
[10:53] <_absolution_> why didn't I get openoffice when I upgraded??
[10:53] <IcemanV9> ekp: make it little bit bigger e.g. add 10 to whatever you put in vert & horiz
[10:53] <wildman> Gistybit: if it worked fine under another OS and u didn't change connections no need to double check, was just a stupid Q
[10:53] <DShepherd> _absolution_: you should.
[10:53] <_absolution_> I tried apt get
 then that is not the problem
[10:53] <speyer> DShepherd thanks a lot
[10:53] <ompaul> amortvigil, dist-upgrade does the work - upgrade will break moving from version to version, -- concept a small enough machine will only do 118 megs on upgrade but 685 on dist-upgrade
[10:53] <Gistybit> wildman: oh well.. i tried anyway, and ubuntu can copy files from it just fine.. :)
[10:53] <DShepherd> speyer: your welcome
[10:53] <ekp> running at 85hz but capable of 100
[10:53] <wildman> Gistybit: ok
[10:54] <ompaul> ekp, I had the bot send you a message
[10:54] <Gistybit> wildman: i was wondering if i can change the config file which Disks-admin uses, since it's only the model name which causes the parser error
[10:54] <IcemanV9> ekp: then you'll need modeline @ 100
[10:54] <Scorpmoon> should i get nvidia-gfx from synaptic to ensure i have the latest driver?
[10:54] <speyer> DShepherd could you please tell me where about in k3b i can see all the plugins i can install ?
[10:54] <ekp> ompaul: I got it just trying to figure it out
[10:54] <wildman> Gistybit: didn't dive that deep, sorry...
[10:54] <ompaul> k
[10:54] <bensode> Oh good someone here already talking about nvidia ... I'm at my wits end for something that I am overlooking
[10:54] <lab> DShepherd: didn't work man same problems
[10:54] <speyer> DShepherd settings > configure k3b > plugins is it ?
[10:54] <amortvigil> ompaul: i donot understand what your trying to say
[10:55] <thelostpatrol> i can't get mine to install either
 I am not sure that is the problem....have you seen anything like what I describe?
[10:55] <thelostpatrol> my nvidia driver
[10:55] <DShepherd> speyer: not sure. check there.
[10:55] !lilo:*! Another new channel note: ##licensing , for discussion of FOSS license issues.
[10:55] <DShepherd> lab: .hmmm.. really.
[10:55] <gnomefreak> bensode: whats the problem?
[10:55] <DShepherd> lab:  do you know your nfts partition?
[10:55] <Scorpmoon> thelostpatrol, you tried getting nvidia-gfx ?
[10:55] <lab> DShepherd: still got the special device /dev/hdb1 does not exist
[10:55] <wildman> Gistybit: the export I've suggested before should put your system 'out' of UTF-8... so it should work
[10:55] <ompaul> amortvigil, do not upgrade to dapper do a dist-upgrade, it does the work - upgrade will break moving from version to version, -- small machine: 118 megs on upgrade but 685 on dist-upgrade
[10:55] <DShepherd> lab: i guess becuase it doesnt
[10:55] <lab> DShepherd: fdisk -l lists it but notes
[10:55] <gnomefreak> thelostpatrol: bensode sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[10:56] <wildman> Gistybit: of course, that's just temporary (u lose those settings when closing the terminal window)
[10:56] <bensode> I have dual screens setup and working with the xorg.conf file BUT they are backwards.
[10:56] <DShepherd> lab: sudo fdisk -l <-- tell me what that gives you. put it in the pastebin
[10:56] <lab> DShepherd: This doesn't look like a partition table
[10:56] <ompaul> DShepherd, -- utf-8
[10:56] <Gistybit> wildman: okay.. yeah i know its temporary.. i ran it from the same terminal window..
[10:56] <shadeofgrey> hey
[10:56] <hermes> how do i change the icon of an application?
[10:56] <IcemanV9> ekp: yes. my xorg.conf only sees at 75, but CRT can do the best @ 89. so, i create modeline from somewhere i learned from google. now, it is running at 89.
[10:56] <shadeofgrey> does anybody know if theres a channel for the evolution email program?
[10:56] <Gistybit> wildman: oh well.. thx for your help :)
[10:56] <thelostpatrol> all i get is command not found
[10:56] <gnomefreak> bensode: are you using the wiki for xinearama
[10:56] <devonst17> Yo, I heard Ubuntu had official nvidia drivers preinstalled,
[10:56] <devonst17> is this true?
[10:56] <wildman> hermes: right click on the launcher icon and properties IIRC
[10:56] <DShepherd> hermes: right-click and properties doesnt change it for you?
[10:56] <lab> DShepherd: http://pastebin.com/770813
[10:56] <dli> devonst17, it's on livecd
[10:57] <gnomefreak> thelostpatrol: did you enable universe and multiverse repos?
[10:57] <wildman> Gistybit: sorry, for not being more helpful
 I do not necessarly want to change refresh just get rid of scan lines.........will that take care of the problem?
[10:57] <phanter> anybody got hybernation working with the ATI binaries?
[10:57] <shadeofgrey> devon:  no but they're easily attainable and a breeze to install
[10:57] <Gistybit> wildman: no problem :)
[10:57] <Scorpmoon> someone needs to update the wiki on enabling universe and multiverse for dabber
[10:57] <ekp> scan lines only show when scrolling
[10:57] <shadeofgrey> devonst17, check the wiki for information.  it gives step by step instructions
[10:57] <ompaul> hermes, try with Applications Accessories Alacarte
[10:57] <ompaul> Scorpmoon, whats wrong with it?
[10:57] <thelostpatrol> (21:59:20) gnomefreak: thelostpatrol: did you enable universe and multiverse repos? <-- what?
[10:57] <ompaul> Scorpmoon, as it will be detailed msg me
[10:57] <IcemanV9> ekp: maybe, you'll need to experiement with it or find some answers from ubuntuforums.org
[10:58] <devonst17> shadeofgrey: eh? I just want to use it to test my gfx card
[10:58] <carlfk> my laptop has a dual CF/Sony memory stick reader.  it works for CF, I tought it worked for the Sony stick a few days ago, but currently when I put a stick in, nothing happens - no "import photots?", nothing in dmesg, nothing gets mousted - any ideas what I need to do?
[10:58] <gnomefreak> thelostpatrol: nvidia-glx is in multiverse repo  if i remember right
 reading now what ompaul sent me too
[10:58] <ekp> to
[10:58] <devonst17> shadeofgrey: I have a bunch of hardware problems I need to diagnose
[10:58] <hermes> ompaul: i see no alacarte :(
[10:58] <siofwolves> how do i run network-manager-gnome ?
[10:58] <amortvigil> ompaul: you mean  upgrade is the same als dist upgrade only upgrade updates everyfile and dist upgrade only the nessesary files?
[10:58] <d-rock> Good afternoon
[10:58] <lab> DShepherd: what do you think ?
[10:58] <devonst17> dli: Is it on 5.04?
[10:58] <maddy> need help with memtest
[10:58] <shadeofgrey> devonst17, to truly test nvidia you need to download nvidia-glx and make sure that its set properly (mainly just to make sure that the drivers are loaded everytime the system boots so that you get 3d support immediately)
[10:58] <DShepherd> lab: is your ntfs harddrive about 20G+?
[10:58] <d-rock> maddy: what's up?
[10:59] <ekp> I see pretty easy really just did not want to add the lines to xorg.conf
[10:59] <gnomefreak> thelostpatrol: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx is nvidia srivers
[10:59] <ekp> but is OK
[10:59] <ompaul> amortvigil, NO, you should do a dist-upgrade
[10:59] <gnomefreak> drivers
[10:59] <lab> DShepherd: It's a 160, partioned into 2 80gb
[10:59] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell bensode -about xinerama
[10:59] <dli> devonst17, 5.04 is probably too old, so, I don't know, I guess yes
[10:59] <amortvigil> ompaul: butt... why???:S
[10:59] <DShepherd> lab: oh...
[10:59] <maddy> d-rock, my x apps were crashing and a dude suggested memtest
[10:59] <gnomefreak> benplaut: it tells you how to do it there
[10:59] <djcabz> see you folks next week... thanks for the assistance!
[10:59] <Scorpmoon> probably i forgot to do nvidia-glx-config enable
[10:59] <devonst17> Grah, guess i have to reinstall
[10:59] <speyer> DShepherd any ideea what package i need to handle wma files with k3b ?
[10:59] <lab> it read one ntfs drive
[10:59] <devonst17> Alright.
[10:59] <acidjedi> !wine
[10:59] <ubotu> Wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on linux.  see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Wine for more info.
[10:59] <devonst17> thanks all
[10:59] <DShepherd> lab: well it doesnt seem to like your drives
[10:59] <d-rock> quick question: I just upgraded to 6.06 and in Nautilus word/excel/ppoint files get an image preview but OpenDoc files do not. Is something broken, or is that just the way it is?
[10:59] <nomego> are there any newer ndiswrappers than 1.8 packaged for 6.06 ?
[10:59] <ompaul> amortvigil, reconfigurations to tell things that things have moved
[10:59] <maddy> d-rock, test 5 gives many errors
[11:00] <thelostpatrol> yeah i'm done with this, i can barely take anymore
[11:00] <DShepherd> speyer: its not burning wma?
[11:00] <thelostpatrol> i've been trying to install these drivers since noon
[11:00] <lab> thelostpatrol: modem ?
[11:00] <amortvigil> ahhh oaky:)
[11:00] <speyer> DShepherd nope
[11:00] <thelostpatrol> no, i'm on cable
[11:00] <lab> thelostpatrol: what drivers ?
[11:00] <fr500> hello
[11:00] <gnomefreak> nomego: no that the latest
[11:00] <thelostpatrol> nvidia
[11:01] <valehru> hey guys, anyone have a guide on how I can setup TLS on GPROFTPD?
[11:01] <gnomefreak> nomego: in ubuntu dpper
[11:01] <thelostpatrol> the guide doesn't help
[11:01] <fr500> is there a way of undoing an update? i installed some libs with apt and i want to undo what i did
[11:01] <gnomefreak> thelostpatrol: did you install the nvidia-glx drivers?
[11:01] <Scorpmoon> nvidia-settings wants me to uninstall nvidia-glx
