[09:33] <Cntryboy> jadaz87 my problem is this, I downloaded it I chmod +x it, then ./filename to install it, I read the agreement hit Y for yes and it installed a folder on my desktop.. But at yahoo games it still says I need the plugin. Im lost :( and new to this
[09:33] <jadaz87> kudzubane: yeah there is no s sorry about that
[09:34] <Gambit--> gnomefreak, NoUse, nope, not found.  It's a 2.4.27 kernel, and it has apt-get style programs, but no lsb_release
[09:34] <pradeep> Flannel, yes ... i find that overwhelming :-/
[09:34] <jadaz87> Cntryboy: why do you not install the java package in the repos?
[09:34] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: sounds like debian
[09:34] <kudzubane> jadaz87: thanks
[09:34] <livingdaylight> Hexidigital: i have realplayer already
[09:34] <jadaz87> kudzubane: you are most welcome
[09:34] <kudzubane> Flannel: duh, thanks :)
[09:34] <m0Zzg> http://linuxff.org.ru/forum
[09:34] <Tommy2k4> how can i mount a networked windows drive without using the ip? all samba tutorials i find are for sharing linux to windows not vice versa
[09:34] <Bratsche> Is there any way to fix the following message: "BIOS bug, MP table errors detected"?
[09:34] <Flannel> pradeep: heh.  There are some frontends, search for them, I'm a svn guy myself, sorry.
[09:34] <Cntryboy> explain what repos mean jadaz
[09:34] <thoreauputic> Gambit--: cat /etc/issue
[09:35] <Flannel> !tell Cntryboy about components
[09:35] <Gambit--> thoreauputic, ah that did it, thanks :)
[09:35] <Bassetts> Ademan: i can access my xp share from smb://jason but how do i get my "Network Servers" folder to update
[09:35] <jadaz87> Cntryboy: repos are repositories or where you can get software packages that are already made for ubutnu
[09:35] <thoreauputic> Gambit--: :)
[09:35] <pradeep> Flannel, is svn easy?
[09:35] <mcpowley> bilange: Thanks for all the help!
[09:35] <count> Tommy2k4: use dns?
[09:35] <kudzubane> trying to get away from the cli as much as possible, decided it was time to join the 21st century
[09:35] <Bilange> mcpowley:  welcome :)
[09:35] <count> Tommy2k4: or netbios, but tha'ts bad
[09:35] <livingdaylight> Hexidigital: shame it works for Windows users but not me a linux user, hmpff... :'(
[09:35] <jadaz87> Cntryboy: go to System>Administration>Synaptic and you will see what i mean
[09:36] <we2by> hey gnomefreak
[09:36] <Cntryboy> well someone at linuxhelp told me where to go get it for ubuntu
[09:36] <Tommy2k4> count: but the dns changes every time she reboots
[09:36] <we2by> I neeed help with gnome
[09:36] <we2by> how do I configure gnome to draw the window border only when moving windows?
[09:36] <Tommy2k4> well her ip does
[09:36] <mcpowley> bilange: haha ill probably come back to try to figure out how to dual boot windows and ubuntu from the same drive
[09:36] <Cntryboy> because at first I was trying to install an rpm lol
[09:36] <thoreauputic> kudzubane: the CLI is still alive and well in the 21st century :)
[09:36] <count> Tommy2k4: dynamic dns?
[09:36] <tomas_> guys urgent help needed! I get a Error opening device when i try to select my webcam in amsn
[09:36] <jadaz87> Cntryboy: which one do you need? the runtime or the sdk?
[09:36] <kudzubane> thoreauputic: truth, but it's dead to me now :P
[09:36] <Warbo> we2by: That would be for Metacity (the window manager) but I don't think it's possible in Metacity
[09:36] <Bilange> mcpowley:  hmm, i would install windows first, then ubuntu
[09:36] <jrattner1> tomas_, that certainly sounds urgent : )
[09:36] <we2by> why not?
[09:36] <mcpowley> bilange: Okay
[09:36] <we2by> I think i have seen it before
[09:36] <Cntryboy> the one I have is jre-1_5_0_07-linux-i586.bin
[09:36] <Lpadmin> Gnomefreak, another exploit?
[09:37] <livingdaylight> Anyone know whether mms is a component i can get for Linux?
[09:37] <gnomefreak> hi we2by sorry working on something
[09:37] <kudzubane> thoreauputic: (side effect of working in it all freaking day long)
[09:37] <tomas_> jrattner1: yes, im talking to someone very important *-)
[09:37] <Cntryboy> I just want java installed so i can go to websites that use java
[09:37] <Bassetts> anyone? how can i get my "Network Servers" folder to update, my non existant old share still shows, but my new share does not, but the new share is accessible
[09:37] <Bilange> windows doesnt know how to boot linux partitions, but ubuntnu knows how to boot on windows
[09:37] <Warbo> we2by: Just that I don't think it's been implemented. You could use a different Window Manager if you want
[09:37] <tomas_> jrattner1: help would be appreciated
[09:37] <jrattner1> tomas_, unfortuantely this is an area i dont know about, sorry
[09:37] <Bilange> the thing is, Im not sure if everything will be set up automaticly, but you may just get back here for help once you're there
[09:37] <Flannel> pradeep: shrug, theyre about the same from a users perspective.  But you can get frontends for either, I just don't know of any for cvs, having never used it.
[09:37] <tomas_> jrattner1. oki, thanks anyway
[09:37] <Warbo> !tell Cntryboy about java
[09:38] <tomas_> ANYONE ELSE (forgive me for my capslock use)? I really have get my camera working in amsn
[09:38] <Cntryboy> let me read that brb
[09:38] <[Ex0r] > Now i'm about tired of stuff not being installed by default, or being installed incorrectly by default. Whenever I try running ant it gives me an error about not having a javac compiler
[09:38] <Tommy2k4> count:  is there no simple way to just do it by pc name like i can in windows
[09:38] <untwisted> anyone else using the jEdit IRC plugin to distract themselves with work here ;)
[09:38] <jadaz87> Cntryboy: just install that which Warbo gave you he beat me to it :-)
[09:38] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : if you installed ant, it should have drawn in the depends
[09:38] <Warbo> :)
[09:38] <EmxBA> anyone knows why apache for dapper doesn't work?
[09:38] <Cntryboy> and btw I installed linux for first time yester. so yah Im dumb to it lol.. But I installed bitchx, mounted my xp hds and some other stuff so lol Im coming along
[09:38] <[Ex0r] > I did install ant, but it's telling me it can't find javac
[09:38] <aridese> hi guys, i have breezy: how do i install kdevelop?
[09:38] <tomas_> can anyone please help me with my webcam?
[09:38] <untwisted> I run apache just fine EmxBA
[09:39] <pradeep> thanks Flannel ... there were two frontends in the repos ... both are really ugly and old...i guess ill keep looking
[09:39] <livingdaylight> Hexidigital: apparently mms component is missing
[09:39] <EmxBA> untwisted: how did you installed it
[09:39] <[Ex0r] > !paste
[09:39] <ubotu> Please do not flood the channel! Use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org for pasting long texts as it does not distrupt the channel. You might also want to install the "webboard" package from Universe.
[09:39] <livingdaylight> i need mms component for  mms://<IP_ADDRESS>:3003/worldcup2006
[09:39] <NoUse> aridese its call kdevelop3
[09:39] <gnomefreak> Lpadmin: no
[09:39] <N1X0N> is there a way to adjust server timeouts with evolution so that it doesn't sit stuck all the time at "fetching mail"?
[09:39] <cwojack> I am still waiting for help with my wifi problem. Please
[09:39] <untwisted> arides: sudo apt-get install kdevelop4
[09:39] <aridese> Nouse: i can use the gnome version?
[09:39] <aridese> it will work with gnome?
[09:39] <NoUse> aridese there is one version
[09:39] <NoUse> aridese it will run in gnome
[09:39] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: you know about mms component? cant get  mms://<IP_ADDRESS>:3003/worldcup2006 to work
[09:39] <Warbo> Cntryboy: The important thing is to start from scratch in terms of system administration. There are often easier ways to do things in Linux than applying WIndows methods :)
[09:39] <aridese> thanks guys
[09:39] <Flannel> pradeep: ocamlcvs, lincvs, gcvs, I see three.
[09:40] <[Ex0r] > http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15699
[09:40] <count> Tommy2k4: yeah, you can use netbios names if you have that installed on the windows machine
[09:40] <Lpadmin> Gnomefreak, what did he do?
[09:40] <[Ex0r] > that's the pastebin of the error i'm getting
[09:40] <count> Tommy2k4: it HIGHLY depends on your environment and setup on linux ANd windows
[09:40] <NoUse> livingdaylight from inside your browser?
[09:40] <thething> anyone know about "Xlib: Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key" when trying to 'startx'?
[09:40] <untwisted> XmeBA what was your question again, every time I scroll up it scrolls back down
[09:40] <livingdaylight> NoUse: how please?
[09:40] <Cntryboy> well the java I installed was what?
[09:40] <NoUse> livingdaylight install mozilla-mplayer
[09:41] <jrattner1> update alternatives
[09:41] <livingdaylight> i need a client like realplayer
[09:41] <count> thething: yeah, it means you dont have permission to launch X from that terminal
[09:41] <rbgCODE_> fuck real player
[09:41] <Cntryboy> if I already installed it why do I need to download it again? I have dialup at 2.1KB takes 1hr 45min to dl lol
[09:41] <NoUse> !language
[09:41] <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.
[09:41] <[Ex0r] > nalioth, did you get that error I pastebined ?
[09:41] <livingdaylight> NoUse: realplayer says mms is missing
[09:41] <NoUse> livingdaylight mozilla-mplayer is a plugin so firefox can play video from the web
[09:41] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : i'm sorry i missed it
[09:41] <gnomefreak> livingdaylight: open it with totem
[09:41] <[Ex0r] > http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15699
[09:41] <[Ex0r] > that's the exact error I am getting
[09:41] <Warbo> livingdaylight: RealPlayer is available for Linux, but I find Totem better for realmedia since in RealPlayer the picture freezes and only updates every few seconds (in my experience)
[09:41] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: it wont with totem
[09:42] <untwisted> XmeBA what was your question again, every time I scroll up it scrolls back down
[09:42] <rbgCODE_> Nothing beats VLC baby!!
[09:42] <livingdaylight> Warbo: id use totem but it wont open  mms://<IP_ADDRESS>:3003/worldcup2006
[09:42] <Warbo> rbgCODE_: svlc?
[09:42] <admiral_proFTW> rbgCODE_, seriously
[09:42] <Tommy2k4> count: i just used standard windows file sharing i dunno if that would be using netbios or not
[09:42] <Cntryboy> can someone msg me, this scroll is making me dizzy sick lol
[09:42] <rbgCODE_> http://videolan.org
[09:42] <Lpadmin> RbgCODE_, #Ubuntu-offtopic.
[09:42] <count> Tommy2k4: what version fo windows
[09:42] <gnomefreak> livingdaylight: i get an error saying to open it with totem but i need to know what format it is before i can tell you how to open it
[09:42] <frenchtomytoast> I have a question about my screen blacking out when I stop gnome. I just installed my nvidia drivers and that all works fine, but if I stop gnome, all I get is a black screen with no command line, any thoughts?
[09:43] <rbgCODE_> Cntryboy what is your problem PM me
[09:43] <Tommy2k4> xp sp2
[09:43] <untwisted> Frenchtomytoast: Are you using a laptop?
[09:43] <Warbo> livingdaylight: I have found Totems Internet capabilities lacking, yes (when playing RealPlayer files you cannot skip forwards or back, so if the stream loses it's connection halfway through you either have to start it again or [try to]  watch it in RealPlayer)
[09:43] <nathanael> I have a ubuntu system at home, and I am currently on a laptop with FC5, how can I initiate a remote X session on my home PC?
[09:43] <frenchtomytoast> untwisted: Yes
[09:43] <count> Tommy2k4: you might be able to do it with computer name
[09:43] <count> Tommy2k4: without a WINS server or dynamic dns it's not going to be reliable though
[09:43] <thoreauputic> !info mimms
[09:43] <ubotu> mimms: (MMS (mms://) streaming media download utility), section universe/net, is optional. Version: 0.0.9-2 (dapper), Packaged size: 12 kB, Installed size: 84 kB
[09:43] <Bassetts> anyone? how can i get my "Network Servers" folder to update, my non existant old share still shows, but my new share does not, but the new share is accessible
[09:43] <Flannel> nathanael: you'll need to ssh tunnel
[09:44] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: it told me with realplayer that mms component was missing  mms://<IP_ADDRESS>:3003/worldcup2006
[09:44] <thething> how can startx be used if 'sudo' won't?
[09:44] <Tommy2k4> how would i do it?
[09:44] <nathanael> ok - how do I do that?
[09:44] <Flannel> nathanael: or, some sort of tunneling
[09:44] <untwisted> Frenchtomytoast: I think its an ACPI issue not a video card driver, my Acer (uses an ATI card) does the same thing and I've heard of others with it (and no solution)
[09:44] <[Ex0r] > nalioth, - did you get it that time?
[09:44] <gnomefreak> livingdaylight: see what ubotu posted above
[09:44] <gnomefreak> ty thething
[09:44] <untwisted> livingdaylight: have you tried mplayer?
[09:44] <gnomefreak> oops
[09:44] <gnomefreak> thoreauputic: ty
[09:44] <NoUse> livingdaylight mms is microsoft media, it probably won't play in real players
[09:44] <VonGeist> I just finished installing ubuntu server and for some reason its not letting me log in. I've re-installed to make sure I put in the right uid and pwd but it keeps telling me login incorrect. Any ideas?
[09:44] <nathanael> When I SSH in and try to run xclock, it comes back with "couldn't open display"
[09:44] <frenchtomytoast> untwisted: It worked fine before I installed the Nvidia driver, that's why I think it's weird. Oh well, I'll just have to wait for a fix. Thanks :)
[09:44] <thoreauputic> gnomefreak: thank apt-cache search :)
[09:45] <Cntryboy> grr
[09:45] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: i 've got my media codecs, thx
[09:45] <SeanTater> Has anyone used Smart Package Manager in Dapper recently?
[09:45] <gnomefreak> NoUse: what about w32codecs
[09:45] <Cntryboy> bout time I got out of that query window lol
[09:45] <[Ex0r] > i used apt to install ant and java, so it should have automatically set it up
[09:45] <untwisted> frenchtomytoast: no prob, good luck with it, sorry I can't be of more help!
[09:45] <Cntryboy> i have to reg to be able to msg u rbgcode_
[09:45] <NoUse> gnomefreak does realplayer link to w32codecs?
[09:45] <Warbo> RealPlayer plays RealMedia files, but RealOne (on Windows) is designed as a complete replacement for the default media players
[09:45] <[Ex0r] > and in installed the java5 sdk
[09:45] <livingdaylight> untwisted:  mplayer alone? shows me no where i can paste link?
[09:45] <rbgCODE_> Cntryboy do you have AIM Yahoo or MSN or anything else
[09:45] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : for courtesy, i recommend you preface your sentences with the persons name you are talking to
[09:45] <Drake_> anyone have time to help me with suggestions of troubleshooting that networking connection dropping?
[09:45] <Cntryboy> yes
[09:45] <gnomefreak> NoUse: im thinking yes but i dont know for sure
[09:45] <NoUse> livingdaylight run mplayer <url>
[09:45] <Warbo> livingdaylight: copy it to a command line (gmplayer uses a GUI)
[09:46] <[Ex0r] > nalioth, not used to having this big and active of a channel. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15699 is the url
[09:46] <rbgCODE_> Cntryboy Y! and AIM = rbgCODE  MSN=<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[09:46] <Cntryboy> kk
[09:46] <N1X0N> is there a way to adjust server timeouts with evolution so that it doesn't sit stuck all the time at "fetching mail"?
[09:46] <cwojack> Still no help. Should I wait?
[09:46] <untwisted> livingdaylight: Try getting the mplayer-firefox plugin (I dont remember the name and I'm in [ugh]  window so I can't apt-cache it).  Then you can open the link in your browser, it works really well.
[09:46] <livingdaylight> Warbo: i use xine backend
[09:46] <pradeep> Flannel, lincvs looks promising thanks :)
[09:46] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : let me look
[09:46] <Drake_> when downloading large packages breezy seems to freeze up and then I don't have any connection to my gateway router, where would I found the source of that?
[09:46] <NoUse> untwisted livingdaylight its called mozilla-mplayer
[09:46] <SeanTater> Anyone here used Smart package manager?
[09:47] <Warbo> livingdaylight: MPlayer uses it's own engine which usually works (I prefer Totem for it's UI though :))
[09:47] <[Ex0r] > nalioth: I used apt to install java and jdk as well as ant, so it should have configured it all automatically
[09:47] <untwisted> nouse: thanks, thats it :D
[09:47] <ithiel> nalioth: hey. been a long time. thinking about joining a project
[09:47] <livingdaylight> NoUse: i have mozillamplayer installed
[09:47] <foxpaul> hi all - does anyone know if its possible to run shell commands from a telnet session?
[09:47] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : did you install the sun-java sdk ?
[09:47] <untwisted> livingdaylight: and opening the link in a browser doesn't work?
[09:47] <NoUse> livingdaylight so put that mms url in firefox
[09:47] <[Ex0r] > i installed the sun-java5-sdk
[09:47] <livingdaylight> untwisted:  and do what? i've got mplayer
[09:47] <Warbo> foxpaul: I think that's what telnet is for :)
[09:48] <livingdaylight> untwisted: totem kicks in
[09:48] <untwisted> ooooh
[09:48] <VonGeist> I just finished installing ubuntu server and for some reason its not letting me log in. I've re-installed to make sure I put in the right uid and pwd but it keeps telling me login incorrect. Any ideas why it would be doing that? Is there something I'm missing?
[09:48] <NoUse> livingdaylight have you install totem-xine and w32codecs?
[09:48] <[Ex0r] > nalioth, i installed the sun-java5-sdk
[09:48] <uXp> anyone know of a good desktop recording program?
[09:48] <foxpaul> Warbo but how do i run a shell command? only certain telnet commands are valid
[09:48] <livingdaylight> NoUse: of course
[09:48] <gnomefreak> livingdaylight: install mimms
[09:48] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : it looks like your ant settings are looking for an older java
[09:49] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: mimms, ok
[09:49] <[Ex0r] > nalioth- java5 was the only one that apt had
[09:49] <NoUse> gnomefreak that will enabled him to download a live stream of the world cup, kinda defeats the purpose, no?
[09:49] <Warbo> foxpaul: Well I don't use telnet sorry (only for MLDonkey, and SSH is too complicated)
[09:49] <untwisted> I personally would reinstall the mplayer-firefox but I'm noobish and don't know a better way of doing it.
[09:49] <foxpaul> Warbo: righto, cheers
[09:49] <thething> this is SO FRUSTRATING :|
[09:49] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : there are now 3 different java implementations available via synaptic
[09:49] <gnomefreak> NoUse: thats one thing to help him view it
[09:49] <foxpaul> anyone have an idea how to run shell commands from within a telnet session?
[09:49] <nalioth> ubotu tell untwisted about mplayer
[09:49] <count> foxpaul: is that a trick question?
[09:49] <NoUse> livingdaylight have you tried just opening the stream with mplayer?
[09:49] <uXp> anyone know of a good desktop recording program?
[09:50] <foxpaul> count: no
[09:50] <thething> surely it's a SIMPLE THING!
[09:50] <Warbo> [Ex0r] : You can install them all and use the alternatives system to choose which is default (galternatives is a GUI for that)
[09:50] <count> foxpaul: what do you mean?
[09:50] <NoUse> livingdaylight or vlc
[09:50] <untwisted> thanks nalioth, its not an mplayer issue so much as not knowing how to change config stuff ;)
[09:50] <count> foxpaul: like, /exec in an irc client or something?
[09:50] <foxpaul> count: run a kill command, for example
[09:50] <jrib> uXp: try istanbul
[09:50] <josh__> hello
[09:50] <[Ex0r] > nalioth, - what do I look under, jdk ?
[09:50] <livingdaylight> NoUse: its no use : ) how do i paste in mplayer
[09:50] <thething> i mean people must do this ALL THE TIME
[09:50] <livingdaylight> i try mimms
[09:50] <Warbo> jrib: I think that's broken in Dapper
[09:50] <count> foxpaul: on your local host or on the telnet destination?
[09:50] <NoUse> livingdaylight console: mplayer <url>
[09:50] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : search for 'java'
[09:50] <josh__> #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:50] <uXp> jrib:  it crashes while i use it
[09:50] <NoUse> livingdaylight pretty simple
[09:50] <thething> so why is it so fx83ng HARD?
[09:50] <Warbo> uXp: xvidcap
[09:50] <foxpaul> count: i've got a process which has gone nuts and can't ssh into the machine, but can telnet in on port 22 - so i need to kill the process
[09:51] <foxpaul> count on the destination
[09:51] <jrib> Warbo: oh..., uXp: never mind then, I only used it on breezy
[09:51] <[Ex0r] > nalioth, - i found the eclipse one
[09:51] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : join me in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[09:51] <count> foxpaul: you are running telnetd on 22?
[09:51] <count> or trying to telnet into the SSH port?
[09:51] <thething> I really would appreciate some help
[09:51] <Kyral_FreeBSD> eww Telnet
[09:51] <foxpaul> count: trying to telnet to the ssh port
[09:51] <count> foxpaul: dosn't work like that
[09:51] <count> foxpaul: unless you speak AES
[09:52] <uXp> Warbo:  from synaptic Pkg manager?
[09:52] <Agrajag> foxpaul: I hate to break this to you, but that's not going to work.
[09:52] <Kyral_FreeBSD> only thing Telnet is good for is playing Nethack on nethack.alt.org
[09:52] <Tommy2k4> hmm its not even letting me mount the network driving manually using the ip in console
[09:52] <count> telnet is great for debugging smtp problems :)
[09:52] <Agrajag> Port 22 is SSH, you're connecting to an unresponsive SSHd
[09:52] <Kyral_FreeBSD> that too
[09:52] <cwojack> So no luck getting help.  Oh well.
[09:52] <untwisted> Kyral_FreeBSD: thats not true!!  There are other MUDs too ;)
[09:52] <Tommy2k4> yet no errors
[09:52] <Kyral_FreeBSD> or showing off by sending Email just by conversing with the SMTP server :D
[09:52] <Warbo> uXp: I think it is in there, but there is a gvidcap program which I don't know if it is in Synaptic and that is a nice GUI (you may notice it on many screencasts)
[09:52] <thoreauputic> Kyral_FreeBSD: not so - telnet is useful for checking to see if a daemon is listening on a port ( 25, 22, whatever)
[09:53] <thoreauputic> telnet client, not server
[09:53] <Nightwish1986> Hi! Anyone experience in sound/ALSA  who can help me?
[09:53] <thething> bailing out cause i'm not finding the help i need :(

[09:54] <VonGeist> I just finished installing ubuntu server and for some reason its not letting me log in. I've re-installed to make sure I put in the right uid and pwd but it keeps telling me login incorrect. Any ideas why it would be doing that? Is there something I'm missing?
[09:55] <Nightwish1986> Warbo: Thanx for the effort  :)
[09:55] <Tommy2k4> how come in konqueror left clicking a file/folder will open it instead of selecting it?

[09:55] <Warbo> Nightwish1986: I'm exhausted after all of that :)
[09:55] <count> Tommy2k4: because kde is wierd
[09:55] <jrib> eugman: not sure, on the top you should see two magnifying glasses with a percentage between them.  And the default zoom is in the Preferences
[09:55] <thoreauputic> Tommy2k4: one click is default for KDE

[09:55] <NoUse> Dewbie yes

[09:56] <count> VonGeist: check caps I guess?  I've not had any issues like that so far...
[09:56] <eugman> YAR, that be the problem.
[09:56] <kudzubane> Tommy2k4: b/c it is configured that way for convenience, why click twice when you can click once
[09:56] <Nightwish1986> Warbo: I can imagine that..  Make sure no apps are using sound when you open Firefox
[09:57] <Dewbie> well it would be
[09:57] <VonGeist> count: already tried caps and such.

[10:00] <Dewbie> warbo good point
[10:01] <Dewbie> and after all 2000 reboots it would need another 500 to patched the patches I just downloaded

[10:05] <|rt|> you can use mplayer --dumpstream
[10:05] <Shaezsche> what is the difference between reiserf and reiser4?
[10:05] <Tommy2k4> i think we have to wait till flash 9
[10:05] <Warbo> eugman: Flash 8.5 (Flash 9) is very close to finished, so they are skipping Flash 8 for Linux

[10:23] <tr1gg3r> [Jonne] : u can easily run this run the cmd line: ./something.bin
[10:23] <Equin> I believe I have to mount my filesystem first or something
[10:24] <Warbo> Equin: In intall CD it is VERY complex (I've done it before, but I was following a guide I didn't understand) do it from a LiveCD (preferably an Ubuntu one)
[10:24] <v0lksman> megaman123: its definately easiest to select in synamptic but I believe 'sudo apt-get kernel-image-2.4.27-2-686' might work too...
[10:24] <jenda> mada: well, booting live is ;) I could try mounting the swap later, although I don't know how.
[10:24] <Dewbie> o I have about 75GB of freespace on this HDD, but Ubuntu doesn't see it, how do I make it see it and write/read it
[10:24] <Equin> oh
[10:24] <Equin> I didn't know there was a diffrence live/boot
[10:24] <Warbo> tr1gg3r: "sh something.bin" gets around permissions easily
[10:25] <blimpdude> Warbo, only if its a shell script
[10:25] <uXp> Warbo:  i do the ./configure and i get no errors
[10:25] <blimpdude> Warbo, .bin files arent usually scripts
[10:25] <Dewbie> matter of fact, windows doesn't see it either
[10:25] <Equin> where do I get a livecd?
[10:25] <Warbo> blimpdude: Most .bin files start with #!/bin/sh anyway
[10:25] <[Jonne] > thanks, that works
[10:25] <v0lksman> Dewbie:  Sounds like you need to partition it
[10:25] <jenda> mada: OK, when booting live, that screen with two rectangles appears as well, but only for a split second... strange... I guess the install tries to start X and fails miserably...
[10:25] <[Jonne] > but is there a way to fix it so it just works with doubleclicking?
[10:25] <Dewbie> an easy way to do that?
[10:26] <mada> jenda: interesting, does it give you a desktop?
[10:26] <megaman123> v0lksman: found it ..and installing
[10:26] <blimpdude> [Jonne] , probably if you right click and select "open with"
[10:26] <uXp> whats that site with pastebin?
[10:26] <tr1gg3r> Dewbie: fdisk, create a partition reboot then create a filesystem on it
[10:26] <Warbo> uXp: I was saying configure NEVER gives errors (unless you have a really screwed up system that cannot run programs)
[10:26] <megaman123> v0lksman: thanks
[10:26] <v0lksman> Dewbie: In X System -> Administration -> Disks
[10:26] <Warbo> !paste
[10:26] <[Jonne] > what should i ppick then? all i can choose are other programs
[10:26] <ubotu> Please do not flood the channel! Use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org for pasting long texts as it does not distrupt the channel. You might also want to install the "webboard" package from Universe.
[10:26] <mada> jenda: what kind of laptop did you say it was?
[10:26] <Equin> Where can one download a ubuntu live cd?
[10:26] <blimpdude> [Jonne] , run in terminal
[10:26] <jenda> mada: the live does. the install doesn't... (live = destkop live session; install = alternate install CD)
[10:26] <v0lksman> http://www.ubuntu.com
[10:27] <jenda> mada: Acer Travelmate 240
[10:27] <Equin> I was on ubuntu.com... can't find it there :\
[10:27] <blimpdude> [Jonne] , 1 sec ;)
[10:27] <thoreauputic> Equin: the default CD is a live CD with an installer ( desktop CD)
[10:27] <Warbo> Equin: For Dapper it is
[10:27] <jenda> mada: I had Ubuntu working on that very same model (different piece) before. Live session up.
[10:27] <Bassetts> what could be used to make a ftp server for my xp maching to access?
[10:27] <Equin> is 6.06 dapper?
[10:27] <Warbo> Equin: Yes
[10:27] <thoreauputic> Equin: yes
[10:28] <EmxBA> does ayone know where can i find .inf file for orinoco wireless chipset
[10:28] <EmxBA> for ndiswrapper?
[10:28] <Dewbie> it tells me freespace isn't available in the disks thingy v0lksman
[10:28] <blimpdude> [Jonne] , try to choose "terminal" in the list
[10:28] <mada> jenda: ok, well hmm... i think if the live session will give you a X desktop then the installation should go smoothly, it might be slow but it should just install X and give it the current config the live session is running
[10:28] <thoreauputic> Equin: but make sure you get the 6.06 CD - not an earlier dapper beta etc
[10:28] <v0lksman> Dewbie: was it already partitioned (IE FAT or FAT32?) what was on this drive previously?
[10:28] <uXp> Warbo:  look http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15700
[10:28] <tr1gg3r> EmxBA: orinoco classic cards are supported byt default in the kernel
[10:28] <jtj> i have just downloaded and installed what i thought were the correct drivers, rebooted and my screen is completely black could anyone help please
[10:28] <jenda> mada: whoa... the live session is actually reasonable now.
[10:28] <[Jonne] > i tried typing sh, and that  seemed to work
[10:28] <mada> jenda: fantastic
[10:28] <Dewbie> it was freespace on the windows drive before
[10:29] <EmxBA> tr1gg3r: no, the generic driver doesn't support scanning using iwlist
[10:29] <blimpdude> [Jonne] , did you chmod +x for the right user?
[10:29] <v0lksman> Dewbie: What flavor of windows?
[10:29] <[Jonne] > but now have a google earth install wizard to attend to ;)
[10:29] <EmxBA> where can i get .inf file, anyway
[10:29] <[Jonne] > yes, to jonne (which is me)
[10:29] <Dewbie> xp pro MCE
[10:29] <tr1gg3r> EmxBA: true but not sure niswrapper would allow that anyway
[10:29] <AskHL> jtj, so you don't even have a terminal ? How about ctrl+F5 for example, does that not give you a terminal?
[10:29] <AskHL> jtj, I mean ctrl+alt+F5
[10:29] <v0lksman> Dewbie: and now neither windows nor linux can see the space?
[10:30] <Dewbie> yes
[10:30] <jtj> i havent tried, i literally cannot see anything. i logged on by sound
[10:30] <Dewbie> exactly
[10:30] <v0lksman> hrm....pickle
[10:30] <Ayabara> is there a way to check that my display driver is performing as it should?
[10:30] <PTWalrus> is there a debain package somewhere for the Mozilla ActiveX control?
[10:30] <jtj> ok ill try ctrl+alt+f5
[10:30] <Warbo> uXp: I am researching xvidcap a bit, hang on......
[10:30] <EmxBA> tr1gg3r: i am not n00b, so please just tell me do you know any site which offers .inf file for orinoco or not.
[10:30] <AskHL> jtj, good
[10:30] <uXp> Warbo:  ok
[10:30] <v0lksman> Dewbie:  When you bring up the disks window and it lists the partitions on the left...what does it list?
[10:30] <jtj> ive done tht
[10:30] <eugman> Hey, if I hypothetically had a program, what would I have to do in order for it to be added to the universe repositories.
[10:30] <tr1gg3r> EmxBA: NO!
[10:30] <AskHL> jtj, so did you get to a terminal ?
[10:30] <jtj> i dont know
[10:30] <jtj> its still a blacked out screen
[10:31] <thoreauputic> eugman: try asking in #ubuntu-motu
[10:31] <Dewbie> it lists my HDD, the card reader on my printer, and the cdrom
[10:31] <EmxBA> tr1gg3r: what no
[10:31] <EmxBA> ?
[10:31] <mada> jenda: how's the live install going?
[10:31] <gnomefreak> anyone remember the update command for flash on dapper?
[10:31] <thoreauputic> eugman:  motu = Masters of the Universe :)
[10:31] <v0lksman> Dewbie: and when you click on your drive what does the partition list say?
[10:31] <Bassetts> is there an easy way to uninstall everything that got install at a certain time in the synaptic history?
[10:31] <jenda> mada: well... thanks for your attention :) I'll be back if the install doesn't finish right. I'm wondering why the live session didn't work before.
[10:31] <AskHL> jtj, hm okay, then it cannot even display text mode right now. Hmmm.
[10:32] <EmxBA> gnomefreak: remember me? i remember you :)
[10:32] <v0lksman> Dewbie:  (sorry hit the partitions tab once you hace selected the drive)
[10:32] <gnomefreak> EmxBA: yes
[10:32] <EmxBA> :)
[10:32] <jtj> someone in the forum gave me a command to run but i cldnt bring up the terminal
[10:32] <hawkes>  i installed a game from synaptic manager so how to i play it
[10:32] <megaman123> quick question... i got the 6.06 server image by mistake ... can i install gnome on it ??
[10:32] <mada> jenda: it is strange, and i really don't know ... normally linux is extremely consistant
[10:32] <uXp> <3
[10:32] <jtj> i did as you said if thts broguht up a termeinal shall i try the line?
[10:32] <AskHL> jtj, if you have a boot cd or something you should be able to get a working session and tinker with xorg.conf and so on
[10:32] <KuLover> Anyone have problems playing music and such wile a micraphone is in use?
[10:32] <MarcN> megaman123: sure.  Install ubuntu-desktop.
[10:32] <AskHL> do you have such a cd ?
[10:32] <v0lksman> megaman123: likely...just might be some work
[10:32] <Dewbie> it gives the windows partition, the swap partition, the free space and a 275 meg partition thats also (why Ill never know) free space
[10:33] <uXp> hawkes:  applications GAMES
[10:33] <EmxBA> anyone, help?
[10:33] <jenda> mada: Yes I know... I've been using ubuntu exclusively for almost a year now ;) But is it possible that the live session get's progressively slower?
[10:33] <jtj> ah ok
[10:33] <jtj> yeah i'll try tht
[10:33] <Dewbie> oh and the / partition
[10:33] <uXp> hawkes:  APPLICATIONS > GAMES
[10:33] <pedr1> Does anybody know if the Ubuntu CD's have started being sent ?
[10:33] <jtj> if i just broguht up the terminal how do i close it?
[10:33] <hawkes> yes but the games not there
[10:33] <megaman123> ok ... i actually wanted the desktop edition .. is there much difference ??
[10:33] <Klowner> jtj: ctrl+d, or exit, or hit X on the window
[10:33] <uXp> pedr1:  they are being sent, they takes weeks t arrive
[10:34] <pedr1> ok, tanx
[10:34] <jtj> yeah cept i cant see the window
[10:34] <v0lksman> Dewbie:  sounds like the partition table may be a little messed up for some reason.
[10:34] <jenda> mada: in fact, it seems to be doing just that... or it's just the partitioner loading several minutes (understandable, I guess)
[10:34] <Warbo> uXp: I found this (seems current, from June 11th) and extracted the relevent bits http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15701
[10:34] <jtj> ok i tired ctrl shift q i recall thts correct for closing window
[10:34] <v0lksman> Dewbie:  How big is the drive in total?  What does it identify the 275G space as?  (Partition type)
[10:34] <mada> jenda: that could be, it might have just over paged and over cached and the ramdisk couldn't keep up (sorry, didn't realize you were an experienced user, i normally don't assume any linux experience because it seems to cause for more questions than its worth :) )
[10:34] <uXp> KuLover:  how you get hte mic to work?
[10:34] <Dewbie> 145GB
[10:34] <Klowner> jtj: as in, you can see it on your window list, but not on the screen?
[10:34] <jtj> is there a way to rebbot or will i have to power down?
[10:35] <Dewbie> the space it says if free and unpartitioed
[10:35] <jtj> no as in my screen is completely black
[10:35] <AskHL> jtj, since you had pressed ctrl+alt+f5 you are in a terminal.
[10:35] <avis> i was wondering.  i am using a new monitor with my new linux tower.  it seems to want to start x at a higher than preferred refresh rate.  it also doesn't acknowledge that it can do higher refresh rates.  anyone lend a hand ?
[10:35] <Klowner> jtj: oh, you're in a vt
[10:35] <jenda> mada: of course, no problem. I might as well have been, for this matter ;) well, I'll ask again if it doesn't load in 30 minutes ;)
[10:35] <KuLover> uXp, the mic works, but no other sound will play when its in use.
[10:35] <AskHL> Login by writing your name, then your password, then sudo reboot (followed by password)
[10:35] <v0lksman> Dewbie:  Hrm....seen this in windows never in linux...the besst fix was to wipe the partitions on the drive and start over....not much help I know....
[10:35] <Klowner> jtj: try ctrl+alt+f7
[10:35] <jtj> ok hold on
[10:35] <mada> jenda: ok, happy hacking! :)
[10:35] <AskHL> or you could simply press ctrl+alt+f7 to get back to the desktop, thus enabling the key combinations there
[10:35] <chris12349> Im trying to install "gnome-devel" and I get this message   "libglib2.0-dev: Depends: libglib2.0-0 (= 2.10.2-1ubuntu3) but 2.10.3-0ubuntu1 is to be installed" anybody know a fix?
[10:36] <KuLover> uXp, For example.. when voiceing on Skype, I can play music on amaroK.
[10:36] <jtj> askhl ive brought up the termianl again
[10:36] <Dewbie> you've got to be kidding me
[10:36] <jtj> what happens if i command sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:36] <v0lksman> Dewbie:  You can always try fdisk or cfdisk if that even still exists in Linux...they are the back end to most partition apps
[10:36] <Warbo> KuLover: Did your mic "just work" because mine doesn't :(
[10:36] <AskHL> jtj, then it will start a program which lets you select video modes and such.
[10:36] <jtj> ah ok well i still wldnt see tht tho wld i
[10:36] <AskHL> jtj, but if you cannot see anything (not even a terminal) it won't help you much.
[10:37] <AskHL> jtj, so you have to get a working session running first (live cd, for instance)
[10:37] <KuLover> Warbo, I had to mess around with Kmix a bit to get it working.
[10:37] <jtj> so if i boot into the cd wld i be able to run commands for the installation from there?
[10:37] <uXp> Warbo:  i did the sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libpng12.so.<IP_ADDRESS> libpng.so.2 nothing happened
[10:37] <Warbo> KuLover: KMix... (shudder)
[10:37] <AskHL> jtj, or you could log in to your computer if you have an ssh server running (you probably don't)
[10:37] <jtj> ok so im going to close the terminal
[10:37] <v0lksman> Dewbie:  The only other thing I can offer is get a windows based disk utility (if you don't have one the best I can offer off hand is UBCD) and try to rebuild the partitions live (IE ala Partion Magix style)
[10:37] <funkja> Is there a tutorial somewhere that will teach me how to use Dual Monitors
[10:37] <jtj> no
[10:37] <tr1gg3r> chris12349: have ran apt-get update lately ?
[10:38] <Warbo> uXp: Good. ln doesn't give an output, it just makes a link somewhere. If it says something then it has gone wrong :)
[10:38] <jtj> is there an instruction to reboot or shall i have to power down
[10:38] <uXp> Warbo:  how do I acces xvid
[10:38] <AskHL> jtj, I already told you two ways to do it.
[10:38] <AskHL> But I suppose you could also just power down.
[10:38] <chris12349> tr1gg3r, yup, im trying to install all the build tools and gnome-devel looks like it has most of what i need... but the versions are off for gtk. I'm going to try and force it in synaptic
[10:38] <jtj> sorry thtere was too much traffic
[10:38] <Warbo> uXp: "xvidcap"
[10:38] <Klowner> jtj: sudo reboot
[10:38] <v0lksman> Dewbie:  Acronis makes a decent disk utility that will reset partitions live without destroying them.  of course you always have to assume you WILL loose the data when playing with partitions
[10:38] <uXp> did
[10:38] <uXp> nothing came up
[10:38] <basti> !xgl
[10:38] <ubotu> XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeManager - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems.  Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[10:39] <uXp> Warbo:  sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libpng12.so.<IP_ADDRESS> libpng.so.2
[10:39] <Dewbie> acronis messed up my whole box last time I used it
[10:39] <tr1gg3r> chris12349: sounds like a bug int he pkg u r trying to install
[10:39] <uXp> Warbo:  bash: xvidcap: command not found
[10:39] <Dewbie> the bootloader couldn't find anything
[10:39] <Warbo> uXp: You did INSTALL the package right? (double click on it)
[10:39] <uXp> basti:  you trying to install xgl?
[10:39] <mada> jtj: just a warning, if you reboot from the command line, the ubuntu shutdown plash screen might freak out a little, it has been known to do that ... it doesn't mean anything is broken
[10:39] <Dewbie> ntldr or anything
[10:39] <chris12349> tr1gg3r, hopefully not, its an to date version of dapper
[10:39] <uXp> ah oops
[10:40] <kallei> im trying to configure my /boot/grub/menu.lst to dualboot my windows xp partititon.  right now i have  root		(hd1,0)   (xp is on my second sata drive, /dev/sdb1)  . when i tried to boot it said something about  "Partition type 0xe7" ....  and could not boot.  Am i doing something wrong here?
[10:40] <v0lksman> Dewbie:  yeah their boot cds suck....I always used PE or UBCD to boot then used their software to restore or manage partitions
[10:40] <hawkes> i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!
[10:40] <hawkes> i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!
[10:40] <Warbo> When I press my power button in Dapper it brings up the logout dialog, is there anyway to tell it to initialise shutdown? (Whenever X crashes I have to do a hard reset)
[10:40] <uXp> Warbo:  Setting up xvidcap... (taking while)
[10:40] <basti> uXp, actually I have installed it, but I have some things that confuses me when I run glxinfo :) why?
[10:41] <mindamp> if i removed an /etc/ config directory... how would i go about rebuilding this after i apt-get remove the package?
[10:41] <Dewbie> warbo type sudo reboot
[10:41] <uXp> basti:  i was just seeing if you were trying to install it
[10:41] <hawkes> i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!
[10:41] <v0lksman> there is also a /fixmbr flag you can set in a windows recovery console but I can't for the life of me right now remember if that would help here or not
[10:41] <uXp> lol, im a noob, it already installed it
[10:41] <mindamp> anyone?
[10:41] <mindamp> suggestions?
[10:41] <Warbo> Dewbie: But this is when X crashes and the keyboard doesn't respond (so I can't get into a console or press ctrl-alt-fX)
[10:41] <basti> uXp, did you get it to work?
[10:42] <uXp> basti:  yea been using it for days now, along with my dual monitor
[10:42] <Dewbie> warbo... ohhhh
[10:42] <Dewbie> pull the plug
[10:42] <hawkes> i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!
[10:42] <uXp> w00t w00t
[10:42] <mindamp> am i invisible?
[10:42] <Warbo> Dewbie: Power button is the only responsive thing, and it used to be OK in Breezy
[10:42] <basti> uXp, awesome. do you own an ati card?
[10:42] <mindamp> ehlo?
[10:42] <uXp> nvidia, much easier
[10:42] <joebush> After booting from the cd, Ubuntu doesn't seem to be able to use my usb mouse.
[10:42] <AskHL> mindamp, I can't see you from here
[10:42] <ijbgreen> hi everybody
 Hello ijbgreen!
[10:42] <Warbo> uXp: You have xvidcap working?
[10:42] <v0lksman> mindamp:  simmer now....what do you mean you removed /etc and now want to rebuild it?
[10:42] <uXp> basti:  no i own a nvidia
[10:43] <ijbgreen> hi
[10:43] <mindamp> volksman... i actually just removed /etc/awstats
[10:43] <hawkes> i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!
[10:43] <jrattner> mindamp, yes u are
[10:43] <uXp> war, yea now i have to find a place to put it because it linkin to my desktop and i hate a cluttery desktop
[10:43] <ijbgreen> i'm new here
[10:43] <mindamp> but lets say i did it for postfix as well
[10:43] <basti> uXp, I got an ati... *sigh* well its working now, although a bit slow at times.. never again ati for me
[10:43] <uXp> basti:  yea everyone who owns an ati is saying thta =\
[10:43] <AskHL> hawkes, thank you very much! I heard it the first time.
[10:43] <mindamp> how would i go about rebuilding the etc confs after removing the package? becuase a regular apt-get install packagename WILL NOT create new etc files
[10:43] <joebush> Without mouse, installation is a bit difficult since this is obviously graphical so that anyone could do it  hehe
[10:44] <Dewbie> and the send, third, fourth, fifth...
[10:44] <Warbo> uXp: I have Nautilus turned off for drawing my desktop and use chbg for background and gdesklets for icons (wow, python is so slow!)
[10:44] <mindamp> hrm?
[10:44] <eugman> Hey, I'm trying to make a gpg key with gpa but it says my passphrase is insecure. Anyone know of a site deatiling the requirements of a secure passphrase?
[10:44] <v0lksman> mindamp: it doesn't?
[10:44] <mindamp> nope
[10:44] <mindamp> !
[10:44] <basti> uXp, well, its their own loss if they dont apply to the supply/demanh chain. more and more people demand better linuxdrivers.. so they better start applying
[10:44] <ubotu> mindamp: I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:44] <uXp> Warbo:  i like my desktop the way it is =]
[10:44] <mindamp> dpkg?
[10:44] <darkgamer20> is there a guide to optimize ubuntu?
[10:44] <uXp> Warbo:  want to see a screenshot?
[10:44] <ikken> what is the best way to change the permissions of an ftp folder recursively?
[10:44] <MarcN> darkgamer20: how do you want to optimize it?
[10:44] <Warbo> darkgamer20: Install with the "server" option :)
[10:44] <ijbgreen> anybody knows how can i activate hardware acceleration for my old nvidia Riva TNT2 in Dapper?
[10:44] <uXp> basti:  yea i know
[10:44] <MarcN> Warbo: ;-)
[10:45] <hawkes> i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!
[10:45] <joebush> Anyone know how to get my usb mouse working with the Ubuntu install?
[10:45] <v0lksman> mindamp: I thought apt-get would...and I assume the same of dpkg....it will only create examples though...not rebuild your previous conf
[10:45] <darkgamer20> MarcN: like i wanna make it faster
[10:45] <jenda> mada: hmm... do you have any idea how to help Ubuntu _not_ slow down so bad? It seems it won't be able to even load the partitioner today...
[10:45] <hawkes> i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!
[10:45] <darkgamer20> Warbo: lol
[10:45] <LjL> Warbo: that would mainly just weed out "less-needed" packages, correct?
[10:45] <jenda> mada: such as mounting the swap... I suppose that could help a bit.
[10:45] <thoreauputic> hawk: stop repeating
[10:45] <mindamp> volklsman... well thats not really true at all, but whatever
[10:45] <LjL> !spam
[10:45] <ubotu> Stupid Pointless Annoying Messages, or the pork luncheon meat whose name is the acronym of Shoulder of Pork and hAM
[10:45] <blimpdude> jenda, are you on live CD?
[10:45] <mindamp> this channel blows
[10:45] <Warbo> uXp: Well I wouldn't be able to match it since a) My homemade them is a little dodgy at the moment and b) I accidentally deleted my launcher desklet and my new one isn;'t configured yet :)
[10:45] <thoreauputic> hawkes: if you repeat like that you will be out of here
[10:45] <Dewbie> lol
[10:45] <mada> jenda: lemme look it up real quick, i forget the command
[10:45] <v0lksman> mindamp:  no?  what do you mean?
[10:46] <darkgamer20> MarcN: you know any guides?
[10:46] <jenda> blimpdude: trying to install from that. 240 MB ram.
[10:46] <blimpdude> jenda, is UDMA enabled on your CD device?
[10:46] <hawkes> i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!
[10:46] <hawkes> help me
[10:46] <LjL> !ops
[10:46] <jenda> blimpdude: it slows down gradually... the first two minutes are bareable.
[10:46] <LjL> hawkes: go away
[10:46] <ubotu> Help! lilo, hedgemage, lamont, Keybuk, jdub, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot, ompaul, rob, Hobbsee or gnomefreak!
[10:46] <Tommy2k4> how come some how the k-menu button is between the system menu and konqueror buttons
[10:46] <MarcN> darkgamer20: what is too slow for you?  browsing? web serving? compiling?  Basically shut off or remove any unused services, say mysql, postgres, exim, imap, that you may have running.
[10:46] <ijbgreen> hello
[10:46] <Tommy2k4> there doesnt seem to be a way to drag to move it
[10:46] <gnomefreak> ?
[10:46] <uXp> Warbo:  gotcha
[10:46] <rukuarti1> Hey, I'm looking to capture video from a DVD to use in a slideshow, not the entire video--just a few seconds. Can anyone reccommend a piece of software?
[10:46] <joebush> Would love to give Ubuntu a shot, but without usb mouse active during install it is quite difficult.. :(
[10:46] <Tommy2k4> nvm got it
[10:46] <Tommy2k4> but more importantly
[10:46] <uXp> Warbo:  how do you use xvidcap
[10:46] <thoreauputic> heh
[10:47] <Tommy2k4> i was doing nothing and then all of a sudden my monitor said out of range or whatever
[10:47] <joebush> Someone must know about the problem
[10:47] <uXp> Warbo:  im trying to make a quick movie for a buddy of mine of my whole desktop
[10:47] <Seveas> eh-oh
[10:47] <Tommy2k4> and i had to reoot it
[10:47] <mada> jenda: i am pretty sure you just mount the swap partition and type "sudo swapon"
[10:47] <Seveas> we're at 911 users
[10:47] <Seveas> someone call 911!
[10:47] <jenda> 911
[10:47] <Dewbie> haha
[10:47] <ijbgreen> hi anybody can help me?
[10:47] <blimpdude> jenda, try sudo hdparm -i /dev/hdb or hdc and see if udma is enabled
[10:47] <MarcN> darkgamer20: and add more memory ;-)
[10:47] <blimpdude> Seveas, 912 is the real numeber
[10:48] <LjL> Seveas: !ops is just my shortcut for kickban. who said ones needs to be op? ;)
[10:48] <Seveas> LjL,
[10:48] <Bassetts> what could be used to make a ftp server for my xp maching to access?
[10:48] <jenda> blimpdude: gimme a while, I'll have to reboot the LiveCD. I can't do it at this stage of slow-down :(
[10:48] <Tommy2k4> how do i stop the kde wallet manager from opening on boot
[10:48] <blimpdude> jenda, lol.. try from ctrl-alt-f1?
[10:49] <Bassetts> Tommy2k4: #kubuntu
[10:49] <Tommy2k4> k
[10:49] <jenda> blimpdude: I can't even move the mouse. C-A-F1 doesn't do anything (or not fast enough).
[10:49] <blimpdude> jenda, ok
[10:50] <ijbgreen> hi anybody knows how can in activate hardware acceleration for my nvidia riva tnt2 in 6.06
[10:50] <Terminus> hello. alt+f2 doesn't give me a run dialog. i'm using the dvorak keyboard layout. is that an issue?
[10:50] <Mastastealth> !nvidia
[10:50] <ubotu> it has been said that nvidia is Help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[10:50] <geeksauce> i've got an upgrade question: should i keep or replace the configuaration file?
[10:51] <jenda> mada, blimpdude, could booting the LiveCD in safe graphics mode help?
[10:51] <jtj> the damned live cd won't load
[10:51] <Warbo> uXp: Sorry, I was looking through a website. Use "man xvidcap" or "xvidcap --help" to see it's options
[10:51] <Seveas> geeksauce, depends on the file, which one is it asking about?
[10:51] <blimpdude> jenda, it might - can always try that
[10:51] <rukuarti1> Hey, I'm looking to capture video from a DVD to use in a slideshow, not the entire video--just a few seconds. Can anyone reccommend a piece of software?
[10:51] <ijbgreen> yes i installed di nvidia-glx-legacy but i didn't work
[10:51] <jenda> I am now.
[10:51] <jtj> its freezing at uncompressing linux...ok, booting the kernel
[10:51] <mada> jenda: actually, it might because i blieve it runs vesa, which is a very fast X server for older laptops
[10:51] <blimpdude> jenda, however sounds to me like a dma issue
[10:51] <gnomefreak> whats the red square with an x in it on lower right corner of a file mean?
[10:51] <joebush> Is there a way to force Ubunto to find usb mouse so I can actually install Ubuntu? It doesn't seem to do it on its own.
[10:51] <Seveas> gnomefreak, that you can't access it
[10:51] <cyphase> http://adequacy.org/public/stories/2<IP_ADDRESS>056.2147.html
[10:51] <Warbo> rukuarti1: Maybe set up a gstreamer pipeline? (If you've never done it before, son't try!)
[10:52] <jenda> blimpdude: will be the first thing I'll try.
[10:52] <rukuarti1> Thanks Warbo
[10:52] <gnomefreak> Seveas: no permissions though?
[10:52] <mada> brb
[10:52] <gnomefreak> not*
[10:52] <Agent_bob> joebush can't install without mouse ?
[10:52] <BioVorE> gnomefreak: If I had to guess..  A broken symlink
[10:52] <flossgeek> joebush:I use a wireless usb mouse and mine is fine..
[10:52] <geeksauce> Seveas,  /etc/login.defs
[10:52] <Seveas> gnomefreak, 'can't access' == 'no permissions'
[10:52] <ijbgreen> at this day i have my X server working
[10:52] <nahoj> anyone here know any working howto for xgl/compiz? i have nvidia geforce MX 400
[10:52] <Seveas> geeksauce, you will want to let it *replace* that one
[10:52] <ijbgreen> but the Quake 3 arena
[10:52] <joebush> Agent_bob: Not sure, can I? And why in the world would a livecd not detect something as simple as usb mouse anyway?  hehe
[10:52] <jrib> gnomefreak: I think it's the lack of read permission
[10:52] <ijbgreen> doesn't works good
[10:53] <eugman> Nahoj, I wouldn't be surprised if a search in the forums turns one up.
[10:53] <flossgeek> joebush: what make is your mouse?
[10:53] <gnomefreak> Seveas: its read write exe for everyone thats what is weird to me
[10:53] <] GoldenDragon> hmm, how do I install wine? i used the synaptic manager but I am not sure what to do now
[10:53] <joebush> flossgeek: Logitech
[10:53] <nahoj> eugman, i have tried that twice, had lots of troubles...
[10:53] <Seveas> gnomefreak, that's a symlink I guess, check the permissions of the file it points to
[10:53] <BioVorE> ijbgreen: what graphics card you have?  (Quake3/UT2k4/Quake4/Doom3 all work well here on nvidia)
[10:53] <flossgeek> joebush: I am using a logitech too
[10:53] <flossgeek> hmmmm
[10:53] <ijbgreen> i have a RIVA TNT 2
[10:53] <joebush> flossgeek: MX1000 here
[10:53] <geeksauce> Seveas, why?  (just curious...trying to understand linux...i'm still somewhat of a n00b when it comes to this OS)
[10:53] <MarcN> I've created a number of "Network Places" over the last few months.  How do I edit them? -- some addresses have changed.  Not via properties tab.  gconf-editor?!
[10:54] <Agent_bob> joebush why the live didn't detect it,  idk ?    but yes you should be able to install    use the tab  and  space keys.
[10:54] <xDCDx> hello
[10:54] <mag_> My ATI Radeon X850XT (PCIE) hangs when I switch to console from X with the proprietary drivers (fglrx). Does anyone know a solution to this? I have a LCD display thru DVI
[10:54] <xDCDx> is there an easy way I can print a binary file in base2 form (like '11101010011...') ?
[10:54] <BioVorE> joebush: with the MX1000 you might want to look at useing evdev for input.. then all the buttons work and are ussable in X
[10:54] <Ademan> mag_: laptop?
[10:54] <Seveas> geeksauce, it should never have asked about it. I'm 100% sure you never touched the file so the question is unnecessary
[10:54] <Seveas> it's a known bug that it asks, and keeping the fie will result in login and/or sudo errors
[10:54] <joebush> Agent_bob: Tab didn't seem to get me to the desktop so I could run install
[10:54] <jenda> blimpdude: on the live cd, prolly without sudo, right?
[10:54] <flossgeek> joebush: do you have anothe rmouse you could use temporaraly
[10:54] <blimpdude> jenda, for the -i ya
[10:54] <] GoldenDragon> hmm, how do I install wine? i used the synaptic manager but I am not sure what to do now, I'm trying to install shockwave
[10:54] <gnomefreak> broken link fixing it now
[10:54] <gnomefreak> ty guys
[10:54] <mag_> Ademan: no, stationary computer with nforce motherboard and asus gfx card
[10:55] <joebush> flossgeek: nope
[10:55] <disasm> on dapper install it freezes at 70% everytime on my desktop (athlon 2200+ with 768 mb ram and nvidia graphics card)
[10:55] <blimpdude> jenda, i think
[10:55] <flossgeek> :-(
[10:55] <pianoboy3333> Can I have some help with hard drive recovery? Ubiquity messed up my current main hard drive, and I'm trying to see if there's a way to recover some of my data, for more info read at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1132513 basically, I got xubuntu installed over my main ubuntu partition, and I'm trying to recover some data from it... any ideas?
[10:55] <Tommy2k4> on ubuntuguide.org under how to browse networked pcs it says "Places -> Network Servers" where can i find this?
[10:55] <Agent_bob> joebush never mind.
[10:55] <flossgeek> joebush: keys is another way
[10:55] <Seveas> Tommy2k4, in the gnome menu
[10:55] <joebush> BioVore: I can't install...
[10:55] <thoreauputic> !ubuntuguide
[10:55] <ubotu> methinks ubuntuguide is a bad outdated resource. Please use help.ubuntu.com
[10:55] <Tommy2k4> under kde?
[10:55] <Seveas> Tommy2k4, and ubuntuguide.org should be avoided
[10:55] <Ademan> usually that sort of problem can be fixed by: boot with the kernel option vga=791  (i think thats the number, but lemme check real fast)  but thats for laptops iirc, but it might be lcd displays in general
[10:55] <joebush> flossgeek: can't seem to get to desktop to run install
[10:55] <Seveas> Tommy2k4, kde doesn't have such a menu
[10:55] <blimpdude> jenda, check to see which mode has a * next to it
[10:55] <Tommy2k4> oh
[10:55] <flossgeek> joebush: ah no wonde rmouse aint working
[10:56] <rpt> doh how can ubuntu not install gcc by default :p
[10:56] <salah> hm .. is there any application for convertion .dv files to mpg/avi?
[10:56] <flossgeek> joebush: are you getting the login screen GDM?
[10:56] <jenda> blimpdude: udma2
[10:56] <Tommy2k4> what i need is a way to mount a networked ntfs drive using the pc name instead of the ip. any ideas how i could do this?
[10:56] <BioVorE> joebush: you have to install evdev kernelmodule and then manualy configure X.. its a bastard to get right.
[10:56] <mag_> Ademan: hmm do you need vga16fb for that?
[10:56] <blimpdude> jenda, o i c. then dma isnt the problem
[10:56] <geeksauce> Seveas, oh, ok.  so it only asks about files i've modified?
[10:56] <jenda> blimpdude: plan 2 - mounting swap... can you help?
[10:56] <blimpdude> jenda, did you try running top to see whats actually using CPU/RAM?
[10:57] <Seveas> geeksauce, in theory, sometimes it asks about things you did not modify and you should simply let it replace them
[10:57] <ijbgreen> BioVorE: you can help me
[10:57] <jenda> blimpdude: ATM, there's nothing interesting there...
[10:57] <montbazin> Hi everybody
[10:57] <montbazin> I'm with kubuntu on a machine with an ADM Duron processor at 950 Mhz.
[10:57] <montbazin> The trouble I encounter is that all applications are very slow while opening, Mainly Openoffice and Skype are causing trouble.
[10:57] <montbazin> I have 256 Mo ram
[10:57] <montbazin> Is there a way to make this runnin faster
[10:57] <geeksauce> Seveas, what is that config file for, anyway?
[10:57] <Seveas> geeksauce, several login/su settings
[10:57] <Bassetts> what could be used to make a ftp server for my xp machine to access?
[10:57] <simian__> how can i kill gnomepilotd from the command line
[10:57] <AskHL> montbazin, you'll want to use Xubuntu instead of regular Ubuntu. That takes less RAM
[10:58] <blimpdude> jenda, try sudo mount -t swap /dev/hdax
[10:58] <AskHL> montbazin, errr, instead of Kubuntu I mean
[10:58] <nahoj> is it always safe to change the busID in xorg.conf to "PCI:1:0:0"? when I run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and do auto-detect it sets the busID to "PCI:1:0:3" (i think)
[10:58] <Seveas> montbazin, OO.o is dog-slow, not much you can do about that...
[10:58] <blimpdude> jenda, thats about as much as I know about swap mounting
[10:58] <Ademan> mag_: is that part of fbdev? i don't think so, I think you're fine as is, I was able to use that option on a default ubuntu install
[10:58] <AskHL> montbazin, also it's most likely RAM that's your problem and not the processor
[10:58] <Seveas> Bassetts, bsftpd
[10:58] <Tommy2k4> how can i mount a networked windows drive using the pc name instead of the ip
[10:58] <jenda> OK
[10:58] <geeksauce> Seveas, i changed some login settings via the gui and enabled root access, so i may have modified that file.
[10:58] <Bassetts> thanks Seveas
[10:59] <blimpdude> jenda, run sudo fdisk -l |grep -i swap to find your swap partition
[10:59] <flossgeek> joebush: I would add a post to the forum...
[10:59] <mag_> Ademan: I'll try it. Did your box hang on reboot/shutdown and switching to vt console?
[10:59] <Seveas> geeksauce, those are different settings
[10:59] <Ademan> hold on i'll try switching lol
[10:59] <thoreauputic> montbazin: you can set OOo to quickstart under tools - options but that uses RAM
[10:59] <Ademan> oh before? my screen would blank on shutdown (rather than going into the console)
[10:59] <montbazin> AskHL: do you 512 MO ram will improove the whole thing drastically ?
[10:59] <Ademan> and then i don't know whether it would hang or not
[10:59] <thoreauputic> montbazin: skype is always dog slow btw
[10:59] <arnau1> hello
[10:59] <Ademan> but it wouldnt power down
[11:00] <mag_> Ademan: ok
[11:00] <we2by> !codecs
[11:00] <ubotu> Binary only codecs (such as w32codecs) can be downloaded from plf or cipherfunk, see !easysource for details on these repositories. Also refer to !restricted
[11:00] <Bassetts> Seveas, that isnt in the repos
[11:00] <arnau1> could anyone help me with Samba??
[11:00] <Seveas> !info vsftpd dapper
[11:00] <Ademan> mag_: well i can still switch to console
[11:00] <ubotu> vsftpd: (The Very Secure FTP Daemon), section net, is extra. Version: 2.0.4-0ubuntu4 (dapper), Packaged size: 107 kB, Installed size: 404 kB
[11:00] <Seveas> Bassetts, according to ubotu it is
[11:00] <montbazin> thoreauputic: what is OOo ?
[11:00] <AskHL> montbazin, I believe you can simply do sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop then you'll just have to select the Xfce window manager from the login screen. 512 MB is fine for my laptop (but it also has a much faster processor... I just don't feel any bad caching going on)
[11:00] <mag_> Ademan: Ok, I'll try that then!
[11:00] <jtj> the live cd keeps hanging on booting the kernel
[11:00] <geeksauce> crap, i thought it was done dowloading the update...it was just starting
[11:00] <Ademan> mag_: good luck
[11:00] <Bassetts> [21:58]  <Seveas> Bassetts, bsftpd << typo =P
[11:00] <thoreauputic> montbazin: Open Office.org
[11:01] <arnau1> ???
[11:01] <Seveas> Bassetts, heh, sorry
[11:01] <megaman123> is there a download accelerator for breezy ??
[11:01] <mitcheloc> does anyone know the default password for the vmware appliance for ubuntu? vmware is not it
[11:01] <||cw> does the bootup process fsck non-root volumes when it tried to mount them?  I have a couple jfs formated lvm volumes that would not mount till after I fsck'd them
[11:01] <Bassetts> np Seveas
[11:01] <Bassetts> ty
[11:01] <arnau1> ????
[11:01] <AskHL> montbazin, I won't GUARANTEE anything but I find it very likely that the low amount of RAM causes constant swapping (it did on my old computer which now usese xubuntu)
[11:01] <arnau1> can anyone help me for samba??
[11:01] <jenda> blimpdude: Argh... the swap mount command doesn't help.
[11:02] <montbazin> ok OOo thanks
[11:02] <arnau1> I can't get it work...
[11:02] <mattm591> hi, i managed to break X trying to install xgl. so now i just wanna go back to the regular xserver if anyone can tell me. i'm getting this error everytime i load ubunt... "GMD: xserver not found: /usr/bin/xgl/ :0 :0 --fullscreen -ac -accel glx:pb Error: command could not be exectured. Please install the X serer or correct GDM config and restrt GDM"
[11:02] <AskHL> montbazin, try installing xubuntu before you invest in anything expensive
[11:02] <nny> anyone here know how to recover a raid 0 array ?
[11:02] <jenda> blimpdude: err... work.
[11:02] <blimpdude> jenda, try ading a '-o sw' option to it
[11:02] <jenda> OK
[11:02] <||cw> nny: from a failed disk?  not possible, by design
[11:02] <montbazin> AskHLI have anoter machine with pentium III and 256Mo and that works much better
[11:02] <geeksauce> does the ubuntu server edition have a gui?
[11:02] <megaman123> is "aget" the right thing ??
[11:03] <Kyral_FreeBSD> geeksauce: nope
[11:03] <arnau1> How do we get help here lol??
[11:03] <Seveas> nny, man mdadm should help (wish I could be more useful, but I also always need the manpage :))
[11:03] <||cw> geeksauce: if you install one
[11:03] <jenda> blimpdude: nope
[11:03] <Kyral_FreeBSD> arnau1: come around when people are paying attention? :P
[11:03] <pollo> hi all
[11:03] <Kyral_FreeBSD> geeksauce: Servers don't NEED X :P
[11:03] <montbazin> AskHL have anoter machine with pentium III and 256Mo and that works much better
[11:03] <arnau1> when then?

[11:06] <dougsko> anyone know how to get the video to go on the tv when i hook my laptop up to my television with an s-video cable?
[11:06] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we cannot actually help you. :)
[11:06] <montbazin> AskHL : sorry, a stupid question, is ther a fast way to enter a niknane when writing on x-chat, I always use copy/paste
[11:06] <Seveas> montbazin, use <tab> to complete nicknames
[11:06] <arnau1> I need some help with samba
[11:06] <Seveas> arnau1, ask specific questions
[11:06] <nanotube> i am writing some articles (latex/plain tex), and wanted to find a good version control software for it. i know there is subversion, but i am wondering if there is something more "desktop-oriented" that is good for text documents.
[11:07] <arnau1> I can't share my folders
[11:07] <Kyral_FreeBSD> arnau1: whats wrong with it
[11:07] <jenda> blimpdude: add quotes to the echo?
[11:07] <geeksauce> Kyral_FreeBSD, i don't know very much about linux, so installing a dedicated ftp server or something like that would be quite difficult without knowing my way around the whole setup
[11:07] <ompaul> !samba
[11:07] <ubotu> well, samba is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba2/book/toc.html
[11:07] <blimpdude> jenda, no
[11:07] <rpt> Seveas: thanks really helpful, still cant understand why this shouldnt be installed by default :o)
[11:07] <jenda> ok
[11:07] <AskHL> montbazin, I use irssi and there <tab> will complete. Seems it should work in X-chat too
[11:07] <Kyral_FreeBSD> geeksauce: HowtoForge.net is your Friend :D

[11:07] <Seveas> no, doesn't exist..
[11:08] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Compile time!
[11:08] <montbazin> Seveas,  thanx it works fine - and if you want to leave a short message before leving ?
[11:08] <Seveas> Bassetts, look in /usr/share/doc/vsftpd
[11:08] <Bassetts> thanks
[11:08] <ompaul> mattm591, you need to say what is wrong with X and the cards in use
[11:08] <Seveas> montbazin, type it as you leave, like: /quit Bye everyone!
[11:08] <mark105> i just updated from breezy to dapper, i see dapper has a new kernel, i have a smp server box so does the dapper kernel support smp?
[11:08] <nanotube> i am writing some articles (latex/plain tex), and wanted to find a good version control software for it. i know there is subversion, but i am wondering if there is something more "desktop-oriented" that is good for text documents. any recommendations?
[11:08] <Seveas> nanotube, bzr
[11:08] <mattm591> ok, well basically when i load i get this error GMD: xserver not found: /usr/bin/xgl/ :0 :0 --fullscreen -ac -accel glxb
[11:08] <mattm591> Error: command could not be exectured.
[11:08] <mattm591> Please install the X serer or correct GDM config and restrt GDM
[11:08] <Seveas> bzr is the best
[11:08] <geeksauce> will ubuntu run on those new intel-based macs that are capable of booting windows?

[11:09] <montbazin> Seveas, Thanks for having answered my silly questions, but it helps
[11:09] <ompaul> mattm591, as Seveas said
[11:09] <Kyral_FreeBSD> geeksauce: IntelMacs == Core Duo == Normal x86 :D
[11:09] <nanotube> Seveas, thanks for the response :) i will search for bzr and see what it's all about, and get back

[11:10] <Seveas> nanotube, it's a damn easy to use and powerful revision control system, www.bazaar-ng.org, apt-get install bzr and /join #bzr for questions
[11:10] <blimpdude> jenda, oh no
[11:10] <geeksauce> cause prices for those notebooks are really low comapared to their pc counterparts
[11:10] <megaman123> anyone here familiar with LIRC ??

[11:10] <delire> geeksauce: apparently it kind of runs. there are far better laptops (and better laptops to run Ubuntu on) in my opinion..
[11:10] <ompaul> mattm591, it is the xgl support channel
[11:10] <blimpdude> jenda, you can also edit /etc/fstab and just put that line in the end
[11:10] <Seveas> mattm591, restore your gdm config to the default

[11:11] <Seveas> mattm591, same way as you put xgl in it, #ubuntu-xgl for more support

[11:12] <Kyral_FreeBSD> geeksauce: In theory there is no reason why not

[11:12] <|rt|> is there a way to install ubuntu server on top of an existing installation of another linux distribution (mainly I want to replace the OS but keep the homes untouched)
[11:13] <Sivik> how do i go about closing an image when i don't have the open to close it via file or the x
[11:13] <Seveas> |rt|, as long as /home is on a separate partition that can work
[11:13] <Kyral_FreeBSD> |rt|: if the /home is on a seperate partition
[11:13] <|rt|> yeah it's on it's own partition
[11:13] <geeksauce> Kyral_FreeBSD, i like to mess around with mac osx, i'm learning linux, and i know xp like the back of my hand.

[11:13] <Seveas> |rt|, sure, just tell the installer to not touch that partition and mount it under /home
[11:13] <geeksauce> Kyral_FreeBSD, therefore, it would be nice to tri-boot

[11:13] <Linuturk> Does anyone have a good suggestion for a reciept printer that works well with Ubuntu? I've looked on linuxprinting.org, but haven't found anything.

[11:28] <Supremacy> ok
[11:29] <byron> Hello I am trying to mount my perminentaly mount my second harddrive with fstab
[11:29] <byron> what would I add
[11:29] <byron> it is located at /dev/hdc1
[11:29] <byron> so would I add
[11:29] <fissy>  which filesystem?
[11:29] <Kyral_FreeBSD> byron: <partitoinnode> <mountpoint> <fstype> <options> 0 0
[11:29] <byron> ok
[11:30] <byron> thanks
[11:30] <Kyral_FreeBSD> I assume you know what to put there
[11:30] <byron> wait
[11:30] <Kyral_FreeBSD> if you need help ask or do "man mount"
[11:30] <byron> one more question
[11:30] <Dewbie> is a green penguin a sick penguin?
[11:30] <byron> it is formated by windows
[11:30] <Kyral_FreeBSD> byron: NTFS?
[11:30] <byron> fat
[11:30] <fissy> /dev/sda1       /media/windows     ntfs    defaults,user,noauto,umask=000,ro     0       0
[11:30] <SilentBlue> can enyone say me how to activate shortcuts with xgl?
[11:30] <jd65pl> exit
[11:30] <byron> vfat?
[11:30] <fissy> damn :(
[11:30] <Tommy2k4> fk
[11:30] <fissy> yes, vfat
[11:30] <Kyral_FreeBSD> vfat == FAT
[11:30] <Tommy2k4> i bent the pins on my mouse
[11:31] <byron> ok
[11:31] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Tommy2k4: sounds like a hardware problem :P
[11:31] <ompaul> loanwolf, do uname -a and I think you will find that you have a 2.6 kernel running
[11:31] <fissy> /dev/hdc1    /your/mountpoint    vfat   defaults    0 0
[11:31] <Tommy2k4> haha
[11:31] <megaman123> how do you install a theme ??
[11:31] <Tommy2k4> yeah my mouse is broke and it keeps moving and clicking for no reason
[11:31] <Tommy2k4> and sometimes it stops moving so i have to unplug it and put it back in
[11:31] <ompaul> Tommy2k4, get a new mouse
[11:31] <BockBilbo> mm i meant F2 sorry
[11:31] <Tommy2k4> but i bent the pins
[11:31] <Tommy2k4> and this window has focus
[11:31] <Kyral_FreeBSD> I had that happen...but because someone put my optical in his pocket...
[11:31] <Tommy2k4> so thought id talk in here
[11:32] <fissy> megaman123: either extract the archive into /home/user/.themes or drag the archive onto the theme chooser in system preferences
[11:32] <Dewbie> how do I clean up old and obsolete kernels from my system and from grub
[11:32] <loanwolf> ompaul: uname -r   ....2.6.15-23-386
[11:32] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Dewbie: apt-get remove <kernel pack>
[11:32] <ompaul> Tommy2k4, this is not a chat channel, it is a ubuntu support channel, I think you will find that is a hardware issue
[11:32] <jessid> hello, ladies and gentlemen...how is everything?
[11:32] <megaman123> fissy: will try now ..thanks
[11:32] <fissy> dewbie, just remove them in synaptic, but make sure the latest one is still there
[11:32] <ompaul> loanwolf, so your running the latest
[11:32] <Dewbie> ahhh
[11:32] <Kyral_FreeBSD> ick...synaptic..
[11:32] <Supremacy> hey guys do you know any links for optimizing ubuntus performance (good instructions plz, i am a "n00b" in linux stuff) thank you..
[11:32] <Dewbie> ok
[11:32] <Tommy2k4> yea sorry i wasnt asking for help
[11:33] <fissy> :O heresy!
[11:33] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Supremacy: Get more Ram :P
[11:33] <PS> hi, has anyone got thunderbird imap account notification working in dapper using ssl?
[11:33] <loanwolf> ompaul: why is this slow
[11:33] <jessid> I come here to listen to god, jejejeje
[11:33] <fissy> synaptic is one of the few things that impresses windows users (i find)
[11:33] <gorski_> anybody, i have no sound in alsa player!
[11:33] <Dewbie> I like synaptic
[11:33] <ompaul> loanwolf, power of processor, network connection something else, your not saying what is slow
[11:33] <fissy> i like it too, it's the only thing to like about ubuntu
[11:33] <Sphygmos> hey.. i'm trying to get xinerama working on ubuntu and im about to blow my head off.. i have an Intel onboard gfx card and a generic AGP DVI card.. ubuntu doesn't seem to detect the AGP card, so I can only get it to clone the desktop.. then i got an ATI Rage Pro PCI gfx card.. but when i plug that in xorg crashes completely and i can't figure out how to get it up again.. can anyone help?
[11:33] <geeksauce> Kyral_FreeBSD, what was that link you sent me in reference to setting up ubuntu server?
[11:33] <Supremacy> Kyral_FreeBSD: i dont mean the memory issue now, and i am planning to get another gb of ram ;)
[11:33] <Kyral_FreeBSD> fissy: Sorry, people who know me know I am a command line junkie and am convinced that NO GUI package management will match the simplicity and quickness of command line
[11:33] <rpt> anyone know which packet I need to install for a program configure script to find Python.h? i have python, python2.4 and python2.5 and their dev packages!
[11:34] <jessid> I have a litle question: can you recomend me some powerful language, or something to write applications using serial port? what about qt? is it good?
[11:34] <fissy> Kyral_FreeBSD: :P
[11:34] <Kyral_FreeBSD> geeksauce: Look around on HowtoForge :D

[11:34] <selinium> Hi all, i am trying to convert a asf file to a vcd. I thought I might be able to use mencoder, but it doesn't seem to be installed. But mplayer is?
[11:34] <interferon> i am getting errors from gdm that it can't start my gnome session.  it drops me into an xterm, and from there i can run gnome-session without a problem.  how do i resolve this>
[11:34] <Kyral_FreeBSD> jessid: PERL!! :D
[11:34] <selinium> hi ompaul
[11:34] <Seveas> selinium, then install mencoder
[11:34] <fissy> Kyral_FreeBSD: apt-get is fine, but it doesn't respect my locked packages that I set in synaptic
[11:34] <ompaul> selinium, evening
[11:34] <Kyral_FreeBSD> fissy: Use Apt-Pinning
[11:35] <jessid> Kyral_FreeBSD is it cross plataform???
[11:35] <Kyral_FreeBSD> holy heck, Synaptic actually came up with something original
[11:35] <selinium> Seveas: I thought it was bundled with mplayer? I cant find it in the repos..... :)
[11:35] <loanwolf> ompaul:  ubuntu it self......i was running kde 3.5.3 in mandriva 2006 4 times faster then im runing gnome in ubuntu...
[11:35] <Seveas> !info mencoder
[11:35] <ubotu> mencoder: (MPlayer's Movie Encoder), section multiverse/graphics, is extra. Version: 2:0.99+1.0pre7try2+cvs20060117-0ubuntu8 (dapper), Packaged size: 2912 kB, Installed size: 7004 kB
[11:35] <geeksauce> if i want the number of scollback lines in x-chat to be infinite, will setting that number to zero work?
[11:35] <Kyral_FreeBSD> jessid: Oh...you have never heard of Perl? The Ducttape of the Internet, the Unix Sysadmin's Swiss Army ChainSaw?
[11:36] <Dewbie> obviously
[11:36] <Seveas> Kyral_FreeBSD, the horror of anyone who tries to read code written by someone else...
[11:36] <ompaul> loanwolf, ask in #kubuntu I guess they know the most about kubuntu - could be eye candy issues or maybe something else
[11:36] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Seveas: Ah yes but I come from C++ background and I know how to use whitespace and comments :D
[11:36] <Seveas> Kyral_FreeBSD, *pfew*
[11:36] <fissy> surely whitespace isn't allowed?
[11:37] <loanwolf> ompaul:  im not runing kubuntu..im runing ubuntu with gnome...kde was in mandriva'
[11:37] <Bassetts> does anyone have the trouble with azureus where the torrent just goes waiting, allocating, downloading, over and over
[11:37] <jessid> Kyral_FreeBSD oh man, I think I am not at your level :-( I have heard of perl, but never paid attention...I have tried with java, but i am tired of fighting with that api...
[11:37] <fissy> I thought the point of perl was to write 1000 line regular expressions to guarantee you can't be fired :D
[11:37] <Kyral_FreeBSD> fissy: Perl has a history of being incredibly powerful, but also incrediblely unreadable
[11:37] <jessid> Kyral_FreeBSD can you tell me more, please?
[11:37] <selinium> Seveas: I don't remember switching off multiverse..... :)  Doh!
[11:37] <Kyral_FreeBSD> jessid: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perl
[11:38] <fissy> nooooo don't infect more people
[11:38] <Seveas> fissy, that pretty much is perls main use
[11:38] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Seveas: Ruby is supposed to be fun...Kass goes on and on about it
[11:38] <Seveas> ruby is
[11:38] <fissy> persevere with java and it might actually get you a job
[11:38] <Seveas> python FTW
[11:38] <mumbles-laptop> how do i back up the boot loader?
[11:38] <Lpadmin> Seveas, you don't like C++?
[11:38] <jessid> Kyral_FreeBSD jejejeje...yeah! thats right...the wiki...good, very good idea...
[11:38] <mumbles-laptop> i need to reinstall windows
[11:38] <Kyral_FreeBSD> EWW JAVA!!
[11:38] <kbrooks> Seveas: ruby is evil?
[11:38] <Lpadmin> Seveas, where did you get those fonts?
[11:38] <Seveas> but let's stop the offtopic in here
[11:38] <mumbles-laptop> erm - backup grub even
[11:38] <megaman123> how can i get on msn messenger ?? if is possible :))
[11:38] <ompaul> loanwolf, ahh, so I don't know, it should be faster, so what kind of proc have you got, what kind of video card, what kind of disks and how much room, and how much ram
[11:38] <jessid> Kyral_FreeBSD thanks man....i will start there!!!
[11:38] <jessid> chao!
[11:38] <BioVorE> python and perl pwn for scriping languages
[11:38] <Dewbie> java in my cup, not on my puter
[11:39] <kbrooks> Dewbie: whoo!
[11:39] <Kyral_FreeBSD> The most micromanaged language! ICK!
[11:39] <Seveas> **but let's stop the offtopic in here**
[11:39] <Kyral_FreeBSD> meh we were hgaving fun
[11:39] <ikken> ubuntu is running a little slow - what can I do to optimize it?
[11:39] <fissy> meanie
[11:39] <Seveas> come to #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[11:39] <fissy> what is the most obvious symptom of the slowness ikken?
[11:40] <darius_> megaman123: GAIM
[11:40] <Kassah> is there a compat libs for 32bit debs while runnning 64-bit ubuntu?
[11:40] <lampshade> Arch is yummy
[11:40] <Kyral_FreeBSD> uhoh I did it again
[11:40] <Seveas> Kassah, ia32-libs-*
[11:40] <apokryphos> Kyral_FreeBSD: how's bsd these days?
[11:40] <Feriaman> hi people .. could anyone help me to configure amule please ? (the amule canal seams to be dead)
[11:40] <Kyral_FreeBSD> apokryphos: it can multitask like no other :D
[11:40] <loanwolf> ompaul: p2 450...384 mb ram.... 128 mb nvidia geforce4.....120 gig hdd.....unbuntu....   /11 gig    /swap  1 gig /home 36 gig
[11:40] <ikken> fissy: well, maximizing or focusing windows is slow sometimes
[11:41] <apokryphos> Kyral_FreeBSD: I burnt some ISOs last night, gonna give them a shot tomorrow. We'll see 8)
[11:41] <Kyral_FreeBSD> apokryphos: if you have used Gentoo, Ports is what Portage wanted to be :P
[11:41] <Kassah> Seveas: will that allow me to install a i386 deb?
[11:41] <ikken> fissy: especially Thunderbird and Flock - but GAIM chat windows load pretty fast - strangely, gedit loads slowly
[11:41] <Seveas> Kassah, no
[11:41] <jdmpike> hello everyone does anyone in here use f-spot and xgl together?
[11:41] <ompaul> loanwolf, you should use "xubuntu" for that - >> sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop << it will be a lot faster
[11:41] <ikken> fissy: I think the problem is all the business of GNOME - running everything in Fluxbox certainly shows a speed difference
[11:41] <Seveas> jdmpike, #ubuntu-xgl for xgl
[11:42] <jdmpike> Seveas, it is very quiet in there though
[11:42] <Seveas> jdmpike, then be patient
[11:42] <darius_> Kyral> uhem .. I think Portage is what Ports wanted to be
[11:42] <loanwolf> ompaul: ok
[11:42] <darius_> or should have been
[11:42] <fissy> ikken, you could try running XGL if it's general window management that is slow
[11:42] <Kyral_FreeBSD> darius_: FreeBSD was around LONG before Gentoo
[11:42] <ikken> fissy: what's xgl?
[11:42] <Seveas> Kyral_FreeBSD, will you ever stop being off-topic or do I have to kick you?
[11:42] <Kyral_FreeBSD> darius_: read the Portage documentation. "Inspired by Ports"
[11:43] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Seveas: sorry I keep seeming to do this without meaning to
[11:43] <darius_> Kyral_FreeBSD: indeed, I've use FreeBSD/ports for a long time.
[11:43] <ompaul> !offtopic
[11:43] <ubotu> Non Ubuntu support related discussions may be carried out in the channel #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
[11:43] <Kyral_FreeBSD> I know...
[11:43] <ompaul> we have a channel for that
[11:43] <Kassah> Also, is there a way to wrap a single program to make it think there is only 1 screen when there really are two with Xinerama?
[11:44] <fissy> ikken: xgl is a way of getting the graphics card of your computer to draw the desktop instead of using your processor. It makes things a lot faster because you're using the power of your 3d graphics card, but it's quite complicated to set up
[11:44] <Kyral_FreeBSD> also buggy
[11:44] <ompaul> darius_, Kyral_FreeBSD please take the conversation to #ubuntu-offtopic that is what that channel is for
[11:44] <Kassah> for instance... bzFlag... uses both screens... and I'd much rather have it use 1...
[11:44] <Kyral_FreeBSD> oy oy I did lol
[11:44] <ikken> fissy: well, I have a very bad graphics card, one of those "Intel Integrated" ones, do you think there would be any benefit?
[11:45] <ikken> fissy: I know it supports OpenGL and all that jazz, though
[11:45] <mumbles-laptop> how do i backup grub ?
[11:45] <jessid> good bye!
[11:45] <geeksauce> should i replace gdm.conf ?
[11:45] <anzio_> how do I uninstall, like I want to uninstall hcfpcimodem
[11:45] <mumbles-laptop> i need to do a reinstall and the last time i did that i dident back it up and had to reinstall
[11:45] <Kyral_FreeBSD> anzio_: sudo apt-get remove --purge foo
[11:46] <anzio_> thanks
[11:46] <anzio_> foo
[11:46] <fissy> ikken, it would probably be up to the job but it is hard to configure. You said you could get everything running in fluxbox and it was noticably faster. Is there a reason you couldn't keep using fluxbox as that would be easier?
[11:46] <Kyral_FreeBSD> anzio_: foo == Generic Placeholder used in MANY Unix things :P
[11:46] <madewokherd> geeksauce: I don't know, but if something happens to grub, you should be able to recover with a livecd
[11:46] <anzio_> oh lol
[11:46] <rhyddin> hey all .. anyone here tried Hydrogen drum kit?
[11:46] <Kyral_FreeBSD> see also, bar :P
[11:46] <ikken> fissy: well, I think I can deal with it - would upgrading my 512MB RAM to 2GB help at all?
[11:47] <fissy> ikken... maybe if you're running out of ram now
[11:47] <nanotube> Seveas, well, i aptitude-installed bzr, and am playing with it. so far, works like a charm. :)  so thanks!
[11:47] <geeksauce> which i don't feel like wainting another hour to download when the upgrade is almost done
[11:47] <rhyddin> ok, another q - does anyone know how to change the default sound server from esd to jack?
[11:47] <madewokherd> geeksauce: get the gentoo livecd
[11:47] <madewokherd> that one's small
[11:48] <ikken> fissy: I'm looking into this Xgl thing, is there a terminal command to see what graphics card I have? I probably shouldn't be even bothering with this, but I'm going to try it anyway. :)
[11:48] !lilo:*! Tor hidden service upgrade in process
[11:48] <Seveas> ikken, lspci
[11:48] <nanotube> geeksauce, as long as you haven't made any funky changes to your gdm.conf, might as well replace it. if you have, make backup first. (unless the upgrade process makes a backup automatically, which would be the smart thing to do)
[11:48] <delire> ikken: lspci | grep VGA
[11:48] <ikken> cool, thanks Seveas
[11:48] <warpzone> hey guys, has anybody had problems with Rhythmbox since upgrading from 5.05?
[11:49] <damg> what could the problem that i cannot go into suspend via the battery manager anymore (I changed nothing) while calling /etc/acpi/hibernate.sh with su rights works flawlessly?
[11:49] <Kyral_FreeBSD> 5.05?
[11:49] <Kyral_FreeBSD> we had a 5.05?
[11:49] <ompaul> no we did not
[11:49] <warpzone> um, whatever Badger was :-P
[11:49] <Kyral_FreeBSD> I know, I'm being a smartass :P
[11:49] <shocktrooper1> I replaced a second copy of ubuntu on my hd1 with windows.  I reinstalled the hd0 containing kubuntu.  How do I update my grub?
[11:49] <ompaul> warpzone,  5.10
[11:49] <ikken> 5.10
[11:49] <warpzone> lol thanks
[11:49] <damg> the battery manager says that HAL couldnt execute the command
[11:50] <ompaul> Kyral_FreeBSD, 5.04 and 5.10 people will be mixed up :-/
[11:50] <geeksauce> i haven't that i can rememeber
[11:50] <warpzone> Im constantly mixed up
[11:50] <judah> shocktrooper1: update-grub
[11:50] <Set> how can I check what version of ipw I have installed?
[11:50] <amarokker> Can someone please help me with vsftpd? Someone tried accessing it and got 'server too busy' msg.
[11:50] <megaman123> i just re-installed 5.10 .. what do i need to use 'make' .. which package ?
[11:50] <geeksauce> madewokherd, is the gentoo live cd in the gento CVS?
[11:50] <amarokker> Is it something to do with configuration?
[11:50] <Kyral_FreeBSD> !compile
[11:50] <ubotu> A nice howto about compiling software from source code can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilingSoftware (but remember to search !apt first, after adding all the !repos)
[11:50] <shocktrooper1> judah, I did that.  it still reads ubuntu
[11:50] <lime4x4> is anyone else having trouble updating there resource lists? I keep getting Sub-process bzip2 returned error code 2
[11:50] <megaman123> !make
[11:50] <ubotu> megaman123: Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[11:51] <ompaul> !buildessential
[11:51] <ubotu> ompaul: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[11:51] <Kyral_FreeBSD> amarokker: without looking at the logfiles I don't know
[11:51] <OrganStoff> strange question: where is the <Super> key? i'm on german QWERTZ
[11:51] <judah> shocktrooper1: investigate the file /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:51] <nanotube> megaman123, just install package "build-essential". that will have make, and gcc, and a bunch of other build stuff
[11:51] <ompaul> !build-essential
[11:51] <ubotu> build-essential is probably a meta package for software building see !gcc for more info
[11:51] <Kyral_FreeBSD> OrganStoff: it usaully means the "Windows" key
[11:51] <shocktrooper1> judah, did that too. :D
[11:51] <megaman123> nanotube: thanks :)
[11:51] <Kyral_FreeBSD> OrganStoff: at least on American QWERTY
[11:52] <warpzone> Rhythmbox can't read any media I've tried so far. Keeps saying "not a valid stream"
[11:52] <[Jonne] > there's something odd with the UI elements that control volume: if i drag the slider up, it goes down, and the whole thing is flipped
[11:52] <arnau1> Hello
[11:52] <nanotube> megaman123, no prob :) that's probably one of the most asked questions about ubuntu. for some reason unknown to anyone i asked, ubuntu doesn't include the dev-tools in the default install. so everyone always asks "hey, why can't i build source packages" :)
[11:52] <tristanmike> !tell warpzone about restricted
[11:52] <amarokker> Kyral_FreeBSD: I'll be happy to show them to you- in a min.
[11:52] <fissy> are you looking at the screen upside down Jonne?
[11:52] <nanotube> fissy, haha
[11:53] <judah> nanotube: because supported packages are already in binary format.
[11:53] <[Jonne] > no
[11:53] <tristanmike> warpzone: you probably need to install the proper codecs to play the stream, take a look at the guide ubotu pointed you too in the pm :)
[11:53] <amarokker> Kyral_FreeBSD: Before we do that, are there any logging directives that needs to be enabled in the conf file?
[11:53] <Kyral_FreeBSD> nanotube: the official position (when I asked) was basically, "Your grandmother doesn't need GCC"
[11:53] <fissy> :(
[11:53] <madewokherd> geeksauce: ftp://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo/releases/x86/current/installcd
[11:53] <judah> nanotube: in theory default users would have no reason to build software.
[11:53] <larsson_> how importand is dirmngr for my system?
[11:53] <Kyral_FreeBSD> amarokker: no idea, never used it
[11:53] <warpzone> tristanmike: will do, thanks man
[11:53] <fissy> Jonne, that's a very weird bug. Have you tried searching for it in the ubuntu bugs database?
[11:53] <gavagai> anyone have experience using ubuntu as a voicemail system?  what software is easy?
[11:53] <amarokker> gack! Am I the only one then :D
[11:53] <arnau1> I really need special help with samba : I can see windows computer on my network and I can do what I want with the files... But windows computer can see my samba serveur but don't have permission to access...
[11:53] <arnau1> Can anyone help me please?
[11:53] <nanotube> judah, that's really a bad excuse. especially since as time gets further from release time, default packages get older, and there is more need to install new versions from outside the repos. at least its a bad excuse in my opinion
[11:54] <[Jonne] > i'm using google, but i'm at a loss what exactly to look for
[11:54] <[Jonne] > which keywords
[11:54] <PS> hi, anyone: why am i getting "checking for GTK+ - version >= 2.6.0... no" when trying to compile mail-notification (sorry if this is a dumb-ass q!)
[11:54] <Keps> arnau1; did you make a user acount with samba?
[11:54] <larsson_> how important is dirmngr for my system? what does it do?
[11:54] <arnau1> I did
[11:54] <Kyral_FreeBSD> nanotube: rumblings on the -Devel ML are pushing it to be in Edgy by default
