[19:28] <keystr0k> oCean_, I didn't try to mount the drive manually... popped it in, and Ubuntu added it to the places menu
[19:28] <Daremonai> is there a way to run a command in su mode on startup? but I want it to run inside xterm.
[19:28] <keystr0k> sorrya ll
[19:28] <Mean-Machine> neosuki, try changing to PulseAudio
[19:28] <Jack_Sparrow> a931bw, Once that reaches eol it is a pain but we can try
[19:28] <oCean_> Daremonai: see /etc/rc.local.  Through place menu i mean
[19:29] <keystr0k> oCean_, I click "USB Drive" in places and nothing happens.
[19:29] <Daremonai> oCean_, this runs as a root?
[19:30] <Mean-Machine> neosuki, give it a go
[19:30] <oCean_> Daremonai: yes. But it's not exactly what you want ("run in terminal")?
[19:30] <Daremonai> I want something like gnome-terminal -command=.... but for xterm.
[19:30] <apimpl> folks.. is it possible to develop iPhone applications with Cocoa and objective-c on the ubuntu ?
[19:30] <Mean-Machine> neosuki, play around with the settings
[19:30] <hyperb0lix> cdavis: I would assume so
[19:30] <Jampiter> Hi
[19:30] <Jampiter> How can I password-protect a file?
[19:30] <oCean_> keystr0k: after adding the drive, use "dmesg" command and see output.. might be helpful hints there
[19:31] <hyperb0lix> Jampiter: You could try encrypting it with GnuPG (GNU's PGP implementation)
[19:32] <zsakr> ikonia!
[19:32] <Jampiter> hyperb0lix: How would I do that?
[19:32] <neosuki> Mean-Machine: no it's not working
[19:32] <hyperb0lix> Jampiter: You could start with the man page of gpg; you'll need to generate a key first
[19:32] <apimpl> please..anyone...I really need an answer..
[19:32] <hyperb0lix> Jampiter: gpg --gen-key
[19:32] <Mean-Machine> neosuki, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio
[19:32] <cbassett> I have a external hard drive and I want to be able to move around with it.  But I've heard that certain OS should not be run off of external hardware.  Would Ubuntu be a good OS for running directly off of a external hard drive
[19:33] <keystr0k> oCean_, output of dmesg here: http://pastebin.com/m762f406d
[19:33] <a931bw> http://paste.ubuntu.com/105273/

[19:33] <sarmisak> cbassett: I'm running mine on a usb disk for emergency situations, nothing wrong with it
[19:33] <hyperb0lix> Jampiter: Here's a nice resource: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto
[19:33] <gonewestcoast> cbassett: Just don't wiggle the drive when it's running.
[19:33] <oCean_> keystr0k: ah, the system found the drive, and it is attached as /dev/sdc (see output)
[19:34] <stefg> cbassett: basically yes, but that depends mostly on the bios of the host machine
[19:34] <neosuki> for instance, if i'm using skype, and in the mean time if i wish to listen to song, i can't :(
[19:34] <Jack_Sparrow> a931bw, See if this works and if not we can work on yours..  http://paste.ubuntu.com/105271/
[19:34] <oCean_> keystr0k: knowing that, you should be able to mount the drive like "mount /dev/sdc1 /mountpoint"
[19:34] <neosuki> some sound config need to be tuned up i guess
[19:35] <Jampiter> hyperb0lix: How do I now apply it to a file?
[19:35] <apimpl> mmm...anyone hear me ? )

[19:35] <cbassett> i have a top of the line computer and a not so cheap ext hd so how do i install it where vista stays default boot and has no affiliation with my internal hd
[19:35] <ericvw> How can I get the pop art squares screensaver?
[19:35] <keystr0k> oCean_, thanks, but error: mount: special device /dev/sdc1 does not exist
[19:35] <Jampiter> hyperb0lix: Thanks :)
[19:35] <zenwryly> Is there a way to get process level detail swap-in/swap-out out of vmstat or some other tool so I can see *which* processes are swapping?
[19:36] <Aeonis> I have a few questions and I only have about 20 mins :(
[19:36] <hyperb0lix> Jampiter: You can use the -e option to encrypt the file; you have a GPG password that goes with that, so it should be secret from prying eyes
[19:36] <a931bw> Still errpr
[19:36] <a931bw> Error
[19:36] <oCean_> keystr0k: oh, try /dev/sdc (removing the trailing 1)?
[19:36] <rydgel> hi
[19:36] <Aeonis> I just upgraded to 8.10 and I forgot how I was able to get my Video card to read better...that is vague.
[19:36] <Flannel> apimpl: It's entirely likely that no one in this channel has any idea whether you'd be able to develop iPhone apps on Ubuntu.  I'm sure there are better places you can ask to figure that out (Try asking them if its possible to develop on linux)
[19:36] <rydgel> is there a way to disable PAE support from ubuntu server ?
[19:36] <rydgel> because I can't boot
[19:37] <Jack_Sparrow> a93 paste errors please
[19:37] <Aeonis> I was able to enable desktop effects and such, but I had to get a driver for my video card.
[19:37] <keystr0k> oCean_, doh!  no such luck:  mount: No medium found
[19:37] <Aeonis> Before, I thought I went to System > Hardware Drivers, but it says that there are no propiortary drivers on the computer.

[19:38] <jafn> hi all
[19:38] <hyperb0lix> Hello
[19:38] <jafn> how can i see my floppy disk using ubuntu?
[19:38] <apimpl> Flannel, where  ? )
[19:38] <logophobia> hi, i just bought a new 1T HD for my pc. I want to use it as a sort-of multimedia share accessible by both my ubuntu and windows partition. Any recommendations on how to format it? ntfs? ext3? (it has a windows driver right?) other options?
[19:38] <Jack_Sparrow> a931bw, You should know by now to use the pastebin and not paste into the channel
[19:38] <dunas> How has Ubuntu progressed compared to, say, this time last year?
[19:38] <Flannel> a931bw, Jack_Sparrow: It's just old-releaeses.ubuntu.com, no archive.
[19:38] <apimpl> Flannel, I'm expecting that Mac developers don't know too )
[19:38] <xang> jafn: sudo mount /dev/fd0 /mountpoint
[19:38] <Katangawise> j/quit
[19:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Flannel, can you edit that for him
[19:39] <Flannel> apimpl: I'd start with whatever iphone development forums you have at your disposal.
[19:39] <rydgel> so guys ? My laptop doesn't support PAE so I can do nothing ?
[19:39] <jafn> umm but I have tried to do that
[19:39] <cbassett> how do I make it where without my external hard drive hooked up... it will boot vista as if i never installed ubuntu. but with the ext hd hooked up... i will have the choice of ubuntu or vista(with vista being default if I do not change anything)
[19:39] <xang> jafn: And?
[19:39] <jafn> but it says the device does not exist
[19:39] <oCean_> keystr0k: can you try "sudo fdisk /dev/sdc" ? Trying to list partitions on that disk. Howver, since it just said "no medium found" ... not sure
[19:39] <xang> jafn: Post exact error verbage.
[19:39] <dunas> oh, has the latest ubuntu moved to input hotplugging in Xorg yet?
[19:39] <apimpl> Flannel, ok... thanks...
[19:40] <stefg> a931bw: see... ubuntu just wants you to upgrade. Dont't use venerable Feisty anymore, do a backup of your settings and homedir and just do a hardy or intrepid install
[19:40] <hyperb0lix> dunas: Yes
[19:40] <keystr0k> oCean_, "Unable to open /dev/sdc"
[19:40] <Daremonai> is there a way to move certain programs to a specific desktop on startup, like for example, on startup, move thunderbird to desktop #2?

[19:40] <oCean_> keystr0k: long shot, but you've already unplugged it / plugged it back in? (and then see dmesg again for which device it is)
[19:40] <a931bw> i know it possivle
[19:41] <stefg> !feisty | a931bw
[19:41] <Flannel> a931bw: Right.  That's correct.
[19:41] <keystr0k> oCean_, thanks for the help btw...    same messages   [sdc] Attached SCSI removable disk
[19:42] <keystr0k> oCean_, maybe the flash drive is hosed?
[19:42] <unop> Daremonai, check wmctrl and xprop out -- you'd have to write a startup script using these two.
[19:42] <stefg> a931bw: you don't want to upgrade thru 3 versions, espicially if there's gutsy involved... just accept you need a fresh install, you can save and restore your settings
[19:42] <Daremonai> unop, thanks
[19:42] <dayo_> oCean_: do u have another one u could try?
[19:42] <a931bw> i'm can't fresh install!
[19:42] <oCean_> keystr0k: well maybe... hm.. even if nothing's on there you should be able to do a "fdisk -l"  ... thinking
[19:43] <xang> jafn: sudo mount /dev/sdb /mountpoint
[19:43] <razin> http://www.wkowtv.com/Global/story.asp?S=9667184

[19:43] <a931bw> i'm HAVEN'T free CD or DVD
[19:43] <a931bw> i'm need free Cd for it

[19:44] <Jack_Sparrow> razin, Please stop
[19:44] <unop> Daremonai, they are command line programs - and work with all X applications, so my guess is - yes.
[19:44] <jussi01> !ot | razin
[19:44] <Eghie> How can I debug an LTSP timeout (on boot, just after initrd loading)
[19:44] <Eghie> ?
[19:44] <Daremonai> unop, alright, thanks, I'll try them out.
[19:44] <oCean_> keystr0k: sorry, I'm not sure where to go from here. :/
[19:44] <dayo_> a931bw: well then wait till u get a DVD
[19:45] <Eghie> some clients do get timeout, some don't. And at random.
[19:45] <keystr0k> oCean_, it's okay! thanks again for the help.
[19:45] <oCean_> keystr0k: okay.. np.
[19:45] <Eghie> it will eventually timeout, and not load the rootfs
[19:45] <a931bw> i'm have Not mutch Time Only This day! because i'm need to install skype!
[19:45] <Dishmon> Hey all
[19:45] <Eghie> can it be that inetd or nbd has maximum connections?

[19:46] <hyperb0lix> a931bw: Yes

[19:49] <Arsanerit> Hi, I'm helping my friend to install ubuntu. She is not very good with computers and I'm not physically near her. She's not good at English so I'm not sure if I understand her well.
[19:49] <dayo_> a931bw: tried installing libqt4-core, yet?
[19:50] <a931bw> How?
[19:50] <Arsanerit> She is currently using Windows. I think she downloaded ubuntu and burnt it to a CD.  I don't recognise that because I don't know what happens if you put a ubuntu CD in a drive while running Windows.
[19:50] <a931bw> i think it 8.** too
[19:50] <dayo_> a931bw: sudo aptitude install libqt4-core
[19:50] <Dishmon> Is the wusb100 (linksys) a good usb wifi card? or should I get a netgear or dlink ?
[19:51] <nt> 225
[19:51] <Arsanerit> What is supposed to happen if you put a (newly burnt) ubuntu CD in the drive while running Windows?
[19:51] <hyperb0lix> Arsanerit: It will just be mounted and displayed in a window
[19:51] <stefg> dayo_: ... a931bw can't install *anything* anymore.. feisty is dead, repos closed,
[19:51] <ActionParsnip> Dishmon: looks like its supported, you just gotta compile drivers
[19:51] <sarmisak> !wubi | Arsanerit
[19:51] <nt> thanks
[19:51] <michael_1> Arsanerit: it asked if you want to install wubi
[19:51] <dayo_> stefg: he's on feisty? oooooh
[19:51] <ActionParsnip> Dishmon: for home users all usb wifi is pretty much equal
[19:52] <ActionParsnip> Arsanerit: make sure you md5 check the iso as well as verify the cd is ok when you boot to it
[19:52] <Aeonis> I've lost the ability of using my video card as I did in 8.04.  I had to enable it, but it is not in the list.  How do I get this back?

[19:52] <a931bw> DAMNT!
[19:52] <ActionParsnip> Aeonis: what video card?
[19:52] <Pici> a931bw: you were told how to upgrade earlier today.
[19:52] <Dishmon> Does the wusb100 send/receive packets good ?
[19:52] <betterhands> hey guys--recently installed 8.10, and the one thing i'm still having trouble with is playing .m4a's in banshee.  i've installed the 'extras' packages that many folks have referred me to but i still get a orange cirle with a white 'x' next to each discovered .m4a banshee tries to play.  any suggestions are appreciated!
[19:52] <a931bw> But it Don't work to me

[19:53] <Arsanerit> ActionParsnip: Hm, she uses Windows and I don't know Windows and she doesn't know computers very well. IT's going to be hard to explain her to get a MD5sum.
[19:53] <dayo_> a931bw: dude u need to upgrade to at least hardy. i'd go with hardy since it's LTS
[19:53] <Arsanerit> Thanks for linking wubi though. I didn't know this. Thanks.
[19:53] <a931bw> It only allows update to 7.10 First
[19:54] <ActionParsnip> Arsanerit: its pretty important, yu may have a bad disk which will make for a bad install
[19:54] <juannicolas> HI!  I don't know if someone can help me, I have 2 ubuntu server in 2 differents places with internet and I would like to write,read,ect.. documents from a samba share in machine A in machine B via internet
[19:54] <a931bw> After that to next...
 can I get it to work on backtrack the same way ?
[19:54] <dayo_> a931bw: no. fresh install. back your stuff up and install hardy
[19:54] <ActionParsnip> Dishmon: i dont know what that is
[19:54] <hyperb0lix> ActionParsnip: BackTrack is a security distro :)
[19:54] <Arsanerit> ActionParsnip: I don't have any disk...
[19:54] <tixlegeek> hi guys
[19:54] <a931bw> I'm can't make it without cd or dvd?
[19:54] <tixlegeek> someone can help me about aptitude ?

[19:54] <kevinbrewster> Question: I have a server with apache2+ssl requiring a RCA pass phrase on start up. When I restart server, it hangs waiting for me to enter passphrase. Once I ssh to the server is there a way to bring that process to the "foreground" (so to speak) so I can enter in the passphrase?
[19:54] <dayo_> a931bw: do u have an external hard disk?
[19:55] <a931bw> no
[19:55] <ActionParsnip> Dishmon: you need to compile the driver for whatever system you are using, the driver makes the device work
[19:55] <a931bw> Only one
[19:55] <a931bw> With logic structure
[19:55] <stefg> a931bw: have a usb stick at hand (1GB) ?
[19:55] <a931bw> Nope
[19:55] <tixlegeek> after i have try to try (u___u) squid, aptitude is telling me "Connexion à localhost: 4001 (<IP_ADDRESS>) impossible. - connect (111 Connexion refusée)"
[19:55] <Flannel> a931bw: Just upgrade through the repos like a few people have mentiooned.
[19:55] <dayo_> a931bw: no other storage device or computer?
[19:55] <a931bw> C: D: etc only

[19:56] <ActionParsnip> a931bw: linux doesnt use drive letter, thats a windows thing

[19:56] <stefg> !shipit | a931bw
[19:56] <ActionParsnip> a931bw: if yuo run sudo fdisk -l you will see them ho linux sees them

[19:56] <Flannel> stefg: Please stop.  It's already been explained that reinstalling isn't an option.
[19:57] <a931bw> No i think

[19:57] <ActionParsnip> a931bw: doesnt matter, its a partition, linux will see them as /dv/sda1 etc
[19:58] <a931bw> My inet is like 3  mbit sec
[19:58] <ActionParsnip> a931bw: if your data is REALLY this important, you should have a backup
[19:58] <Guest67314> what are people using nowadays for a application dock in 8.10?
[19:58] <dayo_> a931bw: .......... i'd say that's fast enough for an upload.
[19:58] <stefg> Flannel: ok... so he's running pretty much out of options then (i went thru this with my gf's computer which ran feisty, and i didn't want to upgrade before she gets a new one... finally i gave in and did a last hardy install on her box after wasting days of time)
[19:58] <a931bw> I'm Installed linux 1 day ago :D
[19:58] <a931bw> All important data is on drive :F
[19:58] <a931bw> F:
[19:58] <regeya> you could always go for the linus torvalds backup:  upload it to multiple anonymous FTP sites, let others mirror it for you ;-)
[19:58] <ActionParsnip> dayo_: thats his downstream, upstream will probably by 256knps
[19:58] <Flannel> stefg: Upgrading works fine.
[19:58] <ActionParsnip> a931bw: not having a backup means the data is disposable
[19:59] <a931bw> i'm downloading With 600 kbps
[19:59] <dayo_> ActionParsnip: that bad?
[19:59] <ActionParsnip> a931bw: again, linux doesnt use drive letters

[20:00] <ActionParsnip> dayo_: well its home broadband, for downloading websites, its called ADSL (Asymetric Digital Subscriber Line) meaning the upload and download are different
[20:00] <arcad3> no back button no bookmarks

[20:26] <Joker_-_> perillux: if so, could you pastebin your smb.conf file?
[20:26] <ActionParsnip> Vash^2: change you primry boot device to the SDHC card instead of cd
[20:26] <Joker_-_> perillux: I honestly doubt that it's a windows problem.
[20:26] <perillux> Joker_-_: I just added remote again, ya I'm sure I had it right

[20:41] <perillux> Joker_-_: can I remove password encryption then and just allow any connection?
[20:41] <Joker_-_> perillux: have you ever considered a web config tool like swat? (Samba Web Administration Tool)<
[20:41] <ActionParsnip> tritium: it needs a kernel module from what i can see
[20:41] <Lokiase> tritium: I did, but i changed some things with the terminal... when I now restore everything in MCC it doenst work
[20:41] <Area52> answer me this .. is the xorg.conf file where all the info on the video devices held ?
[20:41] <Gerinych> i trying to install nvidia-glx-180 but after a restart the screen goes to 800x600, gives an error (no supported devices) and says that i have to reconfigure it somehow

[20:42] <jhonnyboy> Hello everyone i installed ubuntu the other day. My wireless worked for 2 days at very low connection then it has suddenly stopped working. What do you guys recommend i do to fix this?
[20:42] <paul68> Slart: ok and what would the command be to reduce all images from directory x to 800x640?
[20:42] <Joker_-_> perillux: as I dont know exactly what could be the problem you get nor how to fix it, I'd suggest starting over a new config file with a tool like swat. It's not "perfect" but it delivers.
[20:42] <jhonnyboy> can anyone help please??
[20:42] <eitreach> jrib: no such dir, it says.
[20:42] <Slart> Area52: there's not so much info about devices in xorg.conf.. it's the settings for X.. and these days it's mostly autodetected anyways

[20:43] <jhonnyboy> I installed ubuntu the other day. My wireless worked for 2 days at very low connection then it has suddenly stopped working. What do you guys recommend i do to fix this?
[20:43] <jhonnyboy> please i need some help
[20:43] <perillux> Joker_-_: how could I take away passwords and allow anyone to connect?
[20:43] <Slart> paul68: not sure.. it might be the "convert" command.. there are good documentation on their site
[20:43] <tritium> avis: sudo uses your user's password
[20:43] <Area52> thank you
[20:43] <Joker_-_> perillux: guest
[20:43] <Joker_-_> perillux: you'd need to enable guests, giving em access to the share
[20:44] <Insanelogger>  Can someone help me out with gnome-nettool 2.22.0?
[20:44] <wiseman1> jhonnyboy: I had a similar problem
[20:44] <avis> tritium, i know that buy synaptic package manager wont accept my sudo password
[20:44] <Slart> paul68: here's some info on the convert command http://www.imagemagick.org/script/convert.php
[20:44] <Gerinych> jhonnyboy: try moving closer to the router, my router's far away from my desktop, so i have to wobble the antenna to get it to connect
[20:44] <Joker_-_> perillux: something like "guest ok = yes"
[20:44] <paul68> Slart: thanks
[20:44] <tritium> avis: there is no "sudo password".  Again, it is your *user's* password.
[20:44] <ActionParsnip> tritium: says on those links but ive never done it mysefl
[20:44] <Joker_-_> perillux: without the quotes, of course
[20:44] <tritium> ActionParsnip: I'll check the scrollback

[20:45] <jrib> eitreach: pastebin the contents of the "about:plugins" page in firefox
[20:45] <ActionParsnip> avis: your sudo apssword is the same password you use to login
[20:45] <doolph> hello
[20:45] <eitreach> jrib: http://pastebin.com/m1b2be6f5
[20:45] <tritium> avis: are you able to run any commands with sudo?
[20:46] <avis> i realize that.  i know how to use sudo.  synaptic package manager is what isn't accepting my *user* password (which is is a sudoer)
[20:46] <avis> yes i sure can from command line
[20:46] <Lokiase> tritium: no solution? :s
[20:46] <doolph> anyone can help me with this screen problem?, I have dual monitor working, but how can I set my 2nd monitor as main monitor?
[20:46] <perillux> Joker_-_: thank you for all of your help

[20:47] <QWonder> just wanted to you everyone know that
[20:47] <Slart> QWonder: there's no reason to use language like that
[20:47] <guest1001> hi
[20:47] <tritium> Lokiase: I'm reading the URLs ActionParsnip gave you since you're too lazy to.
[20:48] <Insanelogger>  Can someone help me out with gnome-nettool 2.22.0?
[20:48] <TheFunkbomb> can anyone help me configure the Ubuntu firewall?
[20:48] <ActionParsnip> !firewall | TheFunkbomb
[20:48] <eitreach> jrib: nothing happens.
[20:48] <tritium> QWonder: don't do that again
[20:48] <Lokiase> tritium: no, i just dont understand, terminal and all is new for me :s
[20:48] <Absolute0> Which file do I modify to choose which daemons to start on boot?
[20:48] <noobem> hello all. quick question: tar.gz packages, where are they supposed to be installed? /usr/somehwere, /opt/..?
[20:48] <TheFunkbomb> thanks ActionParsnip
[20:48] <tritium> Lokiase: please read http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/ATI_Remote_Wonder
[20:48] <Slart> !boot | Absolute0
[20:48] <Whitor> Hi, I'm having audio problems with a specific application... I want to know where my audio hardware is sitting so I can address it manually right now, the app points to also hw:0,0 ... how do I confirm or deny this is the correct hw adress ?
[20:48] <jrib> eitreach: erm, ok: locate libswfdecmozilla.so
[20:49] <Lokiase> tritium: that link is the prob, I followed it, now it doesnt work anymore
[20:49] <Slart> Whitor: take a look at the output from "cat /proc/asound/cards"
[20:49] <eitreach> jrib: still nothing.
[20:49] <StuckMojo> damn. ubottu doesn't know anything about ext4
[20:49] <noobem> also, second question: how do i sudo in the filemanager?
[20:49] <tritium> StuckMojo: it's not supported until the next release anyway.
[20:49] <jrib> eitreach: sudo updatedb && locate libswfdecmozilla.so
[20:49] <Whitor> ok Slart checking now
[20:50] <StuckMojo> tritium: yeah but usually someone will come up with a nice way to shoehorn it into whatever is current
[20:50] <tritium> avis: I asked you if you could run any commands with sudo...
[20:50] <jrib> noobem: you shouldn't need to
[20:50] <Slart> Whitor: I think that tells you what the first number should be
[20:50] <noobem> jrib: ?
[20:50] <neosuki> \quit good nite guys!
[20:50] <jrib> noobem: you shouldn't need to sudo the file manager
[20:50] <avis> tritium, yes i sure can from command line
[20:50] <eitreach> jrib: wait, the previous one was good. here. http://pastebin.com/d39e68aee
[20:51] <tritium> avis: then there should be no reason you can't run synaptic
[20:51] <Whitor> Slart, ok... yeah, it says 0 [Intel          ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel   followed by  HDA Intel at 0xfe220000 irq 17
[20:51] <noobem> jrib: when i try to copy files to /opt it says access denied
[20:51] <Elmnas> hi how do I start im-sensors I downloaded it
[20:51] <lens247> anyone know if there r any other  options  after getting  this result from force command?  mount: special device /dev/sdal does not exist
[20:51] <Joker_-_> perillux: well, thanks but google on swat
[20:51] <jrib> noobem: what are you copying there?
[20:51] <jrib> eitreach: dpkg -S /usr/lib/swfdec-mozilla/libswfdecmozilla.so
[20:51] <Slart> Whitor: so the first number should be 0.. since that is the card number iirc
[20:51] <Joker_-_> perillux: and sorry I couldnt be of much help ;)
[20:51] <noobem> jrib: eclipse
[20:52] <tritium> Lokiase: then try undoing what you did, step by step
[20:52] <Slart> Whitor: I think the second one is which pcm you want to use..
[20:52] <jrib> noobem: eclipse is in the repositories.  Do you know about synaptic?
[20:52] <noobem> jrib: i'm used to win. dunno where to put packages like that. /opt not the place?
[20:52] <avis> tritium, well, synaptic isn't accepting my users password (which is the same i use to execute a sudo) i've typed it over and over to make sure i got it right.  there has to be a file that saves the password for that, thats different from my user password
[20:52] <Lokiase> tritium: so I did, and then I asked the question here :) because that didnt solve the prob :s
[20:52] <Slart> Whitor: each card can have several pcms.. they act differently.. some only allow recording, some allow only playing sounds etc etc
[20:52] <tritium> avis: there's not
[20:52] <s1ma0_> hi all
[20:52] <Elmnas> hi does someone know a easy and good fan program?
[20:53] <avis> tritium, i will attempt to type my password correctly, one more time.
[20:53] <jrib> noobem: you don't install software by manually downloading stuff (or at least you try to avoid it whenever possible).  Instead you use the repositories with the help of programs like System -> Administration -> Synaptic
[20:53] <noobem> jrib: found only vanilla eclipse in synaptic. wanted to install the eclipse j2ee package
[20:53] <ScottG> How do I find out what kind of wireless card I have?
[20:53] <nightrid3r> Elmnas: lmsensors
[20:53] <stanBR> hi all! I just finnished my first linux game. I created a .deb file and I would like to include it under the official ubuntu repository. What should I do?
[20:53] <jrib> noobem: ok, well 'gksudo nautilus' then
[20:53] <Elmnas> nightrid3r I installed it but how do I start it?
[20:53] <Slart> Whitor: you can look in /proc/asound/card0/ for folders that are named pcmXp or pcmXc
[20:53] <noobem> jrib: yeah. i'm familiar with the concept. thoung not everything is available in synaptic
[20:53] <tritium> stanBR: ask in #ubuntu-motu
[20:54] <stanBR> ok
[20:54] <eitreach> jrib: http://pastebin.com/d7862fa42
[20:54] <avis> tritium, wrong.  its definitely rejecting the *correct* password :/  i'll ask around later maybe someone else will know.  i can adminster my system from the command line thats alright by me
[20:54] <Slart> Whitor: the ones with a p on the end are for play sound.. the ones with c on the end are for Capturing sound
[20:54] <laurielegit> stanBR: is it in your ppa? i'd like to have a look :)
[20:54] <noobem> jrib: needs to be launched from terminal you mean?
[20:54] <Whitor> Slart, Ok... you've given me a lot to work with... I'm going to back and mess around
[20:54] <tritium> avis: no, not wrong.  There is *no* file that stores a separate password for synaptic.
[20:54] <tritium> Absutely not.
[20:54] <jrib> noobem: or press alt-f2 and type it there, yeah
[20:54] <Whitor> Slart, tyvm
[20:54] <nightrid3r> Elmnas: it start automaticaly when you boot, all you need now is get a readout tool like krelm
[20:54] <Slart> Whitor: understanding alsa isn't something you do in a 20 minute session =)
[20:54] <TheFunkbomb> okay, this IP table stuff confuses me
[20:54] <stanBR> laurielegit: I can upload it to my server. Wait a sec :)
[20:54] <noobem> jrib: brilliant! Cheers!
[20:55] <arussel> how can I set up skim ? I installed it, but control-space doesn't bring up anything when typing .
[20:55] <avis> tritium, ok.  understood.  well, irregardless of that fact, when my system wishes to update through a gui, i can't do anything about it
[20:55] <Slart> Whitor: browse around in the /proc/asound folder.. there are lots and lots of info.. files are mostly just text so you can just read them if you want
[20:55] <Elmnas> krelm ok
[20:55] <TheFunkbomb> where is my hero Jack_Sparrow?
[20:55] <Jack_Sparrow> Busy
[20:55] <jrib> noobem: sudo aptitude purge #

[20:57] <eitreach> jrib: done. :) Now what?
[20:57] <Jack_Sparrow> TheFunkbomb, There is no need for that.  I have gmail and did not edit my iptables
[20:57] <montu> server irc.rizon.neyt
[20:57] <montu> opps
[20:57] <jrib> eitreach: ls -l #
[20:57] <Jack_Sparrow> TheFunkbomb, Gmail has a tutorial on setting up thunderbird etc
[20:57] <stanBR> laurielegit: You may download it at http://insanerzshooter.googlepages.com/insanerzshooter_0.1_i386.deb and then install it using "dpkg -i insanerzshooter_0.1_i386.deb". This was my first game using C++ and SDL, so its kinda simple... ;)

[21:02] <Cakarakoo> Hi all
[21:02] <eitreach> er, pardon
[21:03] <trojatra> I tried installing linux-rt to no avail (something about not being able to be configured), so now I'm trying to remove it (it partially installed or something) and I'm getting errors when trying to remove "linux-restricted-modules-2.6.27-3-rt" (I can provide exact errors if needed)
[21:03] <deany> saj:  prefs/appearance, effects off :))
[21:03] <|ntegra|> !networkmanager
[21:03] <Slart> lotuspsychje: doesn't sound like normal behaviour.. do you get any kind of error messages?
[21:03] <Gerinych> !nvidia
[21:03] <trojatra> http://paste.ubuntu.com/105323/
[21:03] <lotuspsychje> slart: no virtualbox and wine just crash feels like some kind of tcp/ip patch like the eventid for xp?
[21:04] <eitreach> jrib: seems like it's working - thank you kindly.
[21:04] <deany> offtopic but ive found out how to get wine full screen apps to show properly with compiz enabled.. wine config, turn off "allow window manager control windows" in graphics..
[21:04] <lotuspsychje> slart: you think there might be a limit on half open connections on ubuntu?
[21:05] <jrib> eitreach: no problem
[21:05] <Slart> lotuspsychje: I have no idea about xp and it's problems, sorry..
[21:05] <Squideshi> What's the difference between Debian and Ubuntu? What is added to Ubuntu?
[21:06] <Slart> lotuspsychje: there might be a limit somewhere.. but I don't know enough about it to say for sure
[21:06] <tritium> !debian | Squideshi
[21:06] <lotuspsychje> slart: ok tnx anyway for the reply
[21:06] <eighthour> is there an app to see what folders are using up hard drive space....like in a chart....???....
[21:06] <saj> thanks, mine is an old ati rage mobility p/m agp 2x card
[21:06] <deany> Squideshi: ubuntu customised it to make more friendly for less advanced people
[21:06] <jrib> eighthour: accessories -> disk usage analyzer
[21:08] <Cakarakoo> I connected an extra monitor to my laptop but whenever I try to close the lid Ubuntu gets in suspend mode, where can I disable this please?
[21:08] <eighthour> jrib: thanks, but i was looking for more of a breakdown....like where the bulk usage is....
[21:08] <deany> system/preferences, power manage
[21:09] <jrib> eighthour: it does that, doesn't it?
[21:09] <saj> i am using xubuntu am i in the right place here?
[21:09] <Slart> eighthour: just sort it by size..
[21:09] <eighthour> gotcha....thanks....trying to do some cleaning....
[21:09] <n8tuser> Cakarakoo-> usually laptops have a switch that when you close the lid it puts it in sleep mode, look around the hinges, i doubt it if you can disable that
[21:09] <Slart> saj: there might be some channel specializing in xubuntu but you can ask here too
[21:10] <maximus_1> I was called by a network administrator saying I had caused a 'logical loop' and shut down my Internet access
[21:10] <maximus_1> does anyone know what I would need to disable? supposedly some gateway thing
[21:10] <Insanelogger>  Can someone help me out with gnome-nettool 2.22.0?
[21:11] <Slart> maximus_1: logical loop? sounds like someone needs a weekend course in people skills..
[21:11] <jrib> Insanelogger: ask your question and find out
[21:11] <sh2> what is the difference between normal booting and init=/bin/sh in bootarguments
[21:12] <lens247> anyone know if there r any other options after getting this result from force command? mount: special device /dev/sdal does not exist
[21:12] <jrib> sh2: init=/bin/sh will drop you straight into a shell, it's really just for extreme emergencies when nothing else is working
[21:12] <Cakarakoo> So, can anyone disable the suspen mode when closing the lid of a laptopo?
[21:12] <Squideshi> Is there a place to place bounties on desired development in Ubuntu?
[21:12] <n8tuser> maximus_1-> sounds like you had a spare cable from a switch connected back to the router and things are getting in a loop?
[21:12] <sh2> and normal booting where you get a init
[21:12] <sh2> what is the purpose?
[21:12] <jrib> Cakarakoo: system -> preferences -> power management  have an option?   I tried to fix video flickering, now ubuntu goes blank.
[21:18] <emil__> ok ty :)
[21:19] <Slart> TheFunkbomb: but I guess you knew that before you decided you wanted to run that option
[21:19] <trojatra> I tried installing linux-rt to no avail (something about not being able to be configured), so now I'm trying to remove it (it partially installed or something) and I'm getting errors when trying to remove "linux-restricted-modules-2.6.27-3-rt" (I can provide exact errors if needed)

[21:19] <n8tuser> yikes, i just took a peek at the tv and in ny a continental plane ditched on the river
[21:19] <TheFunkbomb> Slart, I'm an idiot lol

[21:19] <trojatra> Sorry for the double-post.
[21:20] <jeremy_> Can anyone help me. I am trying to get information on how to get my nvidia2 MX 400 working on my PowerPC does anyone have any experience in this matter?
[21:21] <yaris123456789> what is a good editor for replacing many strings for txt files in the range of 20~40mb ?
[21:22] <Slart> yaris123456789: grep
[21:22] <Slart> yaris123456789: or sed
[21:22] <ari_stress> morning all :)
[21:22] <xang> yaris123456789: sed
[21:22] <Slart> yaris123456789: definately sed.. grep is more of a search tool
[21:22] <yaris123456789> Slart: how do i use it with sed ? say replace 'sundays' with 'mondays'
[21:23] <tgb> Hey guys, quick question....
[21:23] <xang> yaris123456789: sed "s/sundays/monday/g filename
[21:23] <yaris123456789> i dont need regex.....just need to replace a string
[21:23] <Slart> yaris123456789: sed 's/sundays/mondays/' bigtextfile.txt I think
[21:23] <yaris123456789> oh
[21:23] <yaris123456789> ok
[21:23] <xang> sed "s/sundays/mondays/g" filename
[21:23] <yaris123456789> what is s/ and /g
[21:23] <miik> ... /g is global
[21:23] <TheFunkbomb> I'm hosed
[21:23] <yaris123456789> is it case sensitive ?
[21:23] <miik> s/ is like search and replace
[21:23] <miik> its case sensitive if you had /i
[21:24] <n8tuser> yaris123456789 -> after those suggestion  you have to  >  anewfile
[21:24] <Fade2Blk> if i want to install the driver for my nvidia card all i have to do is activate it in the restricted driver list correct?
[21:24] <Slart> yaris123456789: it is a regexp.. s is a command of a sorts.. "search" perhaps?
[21:24] <miik> or insenisitive :p
[21:24] <tgb> I'm going to be upgrading my Slackware Linux RAID server to Ubuntu RAID with all new HD's.  To pull this off, I'm going to install everything on a different computer, copy all the data over, and then move the HD's into the old server.  My question is this:  Are there any problems moving an Ubuntu HD from one machine to another?  I'd presume the answer is no (it would be yes for WinXP), but I just wanted to check.
[21:24] <Slart> yaris123456789: there are lots and lots of examples out there.. sed has been around for a long time
[21:24] <yaris123456789> so sed "s/i/sundays/mondays/g" bigfiletxt > newfile.txt
[21:24] <xang> right n8tuser...so "sed s/sundays/mondays/g" filename > newfile
[21:25] <SteveHill> I just upgraded to 8.10 from 8.04 and my sound no longer works.  Can anyone suggest a troubleshooting scenario??
[21:25] <yaris123456789> so /i will make it case sensitive ?
[21:25] <n8tuser> yaris123456789 -> and xang   affirmative
[21:25] <peepsalot> is it now forbidden to use Ctrl-Alt-F1, etc.  virtual terminals?  I used to be able to use them, but now I get instantly kicked back to X when I try to switch
[21:25] <Moppelkotze> hallolo
[21:25] <n8tuser> yaris123456789 -> i  should be at the end
[21:25] <yaris123456789> oh
[21:25] <Slart> peepsalot: mm.. I think it's a video driver issue.. afaik it's not forbidden
[21:26] <F_or_F> test
[21:26] <yaris123456789> n8tuser: do i have to escape anything else when searching? like ' or & ?
[21:26] <Area300> !xinerama
[21:26] <peepsalot> stupid nvidia! ughgahg
[21:26] <n8tuser> yaris123456789 -> you can use a different delimeter like  ;
[21:27] <Stieffers> Anyone help me out with an Nvidia driver problem? (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6550754#post6550754)
[21:27] <tgb> Hmm, alternately perhaps I should move the Slackware RAID drives to the new machine, and then just install Ubuntu on the hardware directly.
[21:28] <tgb> As long as my network drivers work that should be OK...
[21:28] <yaris123456789> n8tuser: liek this is what i wanna do. i want to find all 's and replace it with \'s......this is a big .sql file, and it has problems with a single quote...so i need to escape all possessive 's
[21:28] <yaris123456789> sed "s/'s/\'s/g/i bigfile > filetext
[21:28] <yaris123456789> woudl that work ?
[21:29] <delhage> hi jsm
[21:30] <sifuschwager> i edited xorg.conf device config and now my ubuntu wont start. anyone able to offer any help?

[21:30] <n8tuser> yaris123456789 -> try it, but dont put /g/i  it should be something like /ig
[21:30] <Stieffers> Does ubuntu not start or does KDE/Gnome not start?
[21:30] <illovae> hi o/

[21:30] <Stieffers> sifusschwager: Does ubuntu not start or does KDE/Gnome not start?

[21:31] <slipst> Hi, I'm looking for a simple way of ripping a DVD. I don't want to encode it or anything, I just want it saved on my harddrive, nothing else.
[21:32] <nightrid3r> jsm its a windows cd so it will never work in ubuntu
[21:32] <jsm> And I'm not able to access my school curriculum online because Dell sent me a laptop with Ubuntu on it
[21:32] <Slart> jsm: it wasn't you on the news with the DELL computer, right? http://entertainment.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09%2F01%2F15%2F158216&from=rss
[21:32] <slipst> Slart, was thinking the same thing :)
[21:33] <Joxtro> hey everyone
[21:33] <SteveHill> I just upgraded to 8.10 from 8.04 and my sound no longer works. Can anyone suggest a troubleshooting scenario??

[21:33] <Joxtro> any idea how i can register out here ?
[21:33] <n8tuser> jsm  you can try just launching your browser and point to your school web site?
[21:33] <Demios> when i get an error like this make[3]: *** [gmpc] Error 1
[21:33] <Demios> make[3]: Leaving directory
[21:33] <Stieffers> Steve: Make sure that all your audio mixers are up, and make sure you have all the outputs muted. (Such as digital out)
[21:33] <Demios> it means root could not be accessed?
[21:33] <Gerinych> !nvidia
[21:33] <Demios> or soemthing??
[21:33] <Slart> !register | Joxtro
[21:34] <|ntegra|> how can I reset networkmanager / delete previous essid etc?
[21:34] <zoddan> Hi
[21:34] <|ntegra|> hi
[21:34] <Fade2Blk> what do i need to do to start my nvidia driver?
[21:34] <IndyGunFreak> |ntegra|: just create a new connection
[21:35] <Matson> what is the state of service management on ubuntu nowadays?
[21:35] <zoddan> anyone knows how to boot ubuntu with a CD as a "starter", my grub is not working
[21:35] <Fade2Blk> i just finish install from the restricted driver list
[21:35] <Slart> jsm left?.. I sure hope it wasn't that woman.. imagine going into a support channel and everyone already knows who you are and what the problem is..
[21:35] <Matson> are people using /etc/initd?  upstart?  Sun's Service Management Facility?
[21:35] <disappearedng> my nautilus keeps crashing
[21:35] <|ntegra|> It hasn't worked like that, every time I reboot it reverts back to old essid/account
[21:35] <eraggo> can someone highlight me? just a test :)
[21:35] <IndyGunFreak> zoddan: are you on the live CD now?
[21:35] <disappearedng> what should I do ?
[21:35] <Matson> (I don't run ubuntu)
[21:35] <Flannel> eraggo: In the future, things like that belong in #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:35] <zoddan> IndyGunFreak: no i have ubuntu installed on my harddrive but ubuntu wont work :/
[21:35] <zoddan> IndyGunFreak: so i want to use the CD as a "helper"
[21:36] <eraggo> Flannel, ok :)
[21:36] <Slart> eraggo: there is a test channel.. guess what it's called =)
[21:36] <IndyGunFreak> zoddan: id on't understand what you mean by helper, are you trying to reinstall grub?
[21:36] <eraggo> i think joining there now
[21:36] <zoddan> IndyGunFreak: grub is not working on the HDD so im using a CD to try to boot ubuntu
[21:37] <IndyGunFreak> !grub | zoddan use the instructions here to reinstall grub
[21:37] <guntbert> Matson: #ubuntu-offtopic would be the place for such discussions
[21:37] <zoddan> IndyGunFreak: thats was not my question ...
[21:37] <jony_kalavera> hi
[21:37] <Matson> guntbert: thanks
[21:37] <|ntegra|> hi
[21:37] <Whitor> hi
[21:37] <|ntegra|> hi
[21:37] <wash-hasted> hi
[21:37] <zoddan> IndyGunFreak: my question was: how do i boot ubuntu with the help of a cd
[21:38] <jony_kalavera> how can i downgrade php5 to php4 in 8-04?
[21:38] <|ntegra|> haha
[21:38] <adrian_> anyone here ever installed ubuntu on a google search appliance box? 12gig ram, quad xeon, 250gig raid1+0
[21:38] <|ntegra|> damn"
[21:38] <adrian_> customised bios
[21:38] <guntbert> |ntegra|: please stop that
[21:38] <zoddan> IndyGunFreak: ?
[21:39] <jony_kalavera> is it posible tu have php4 and 5 in the same apache instance
[21:39] <jony_kalavera> }?
[21:39] <Slart> adrian_: seems you're the first one here.. can you run the live cd on it?
[21:39] <zoddan> anyone knows how to boot ubuntu with a CD as a "starter", my grub is not working
[21:39] <laggerbear> is there any worthy media players xcept totem?
[21:40] <Flannel> !media | laggerbear
[21:40] <Seveas> jony_kalavera, yes, but your php4 files should be called .php4 (or the php 5 ones .php5) and you need some config tweaking. Also, Ubuntu doesn't support php4
[21:40] <IndyGunFreak> laggerbear: i like vlc
[21:40] <zoddan> no one?
[21:40] <guntbert> zoddan: you can repair grub
[21:40] <zoddan> guntbert: that was not my question
[21:40] <IndyGunFreak> guntbert: he doesn't want to do that apparently, thats why i just stopped responding to him
[21:40] <zoddan> guntbert: my question is how i boot with a CD
[21:41] <adrian_> nope slart ... i think the bios/firmware might be locked down
[21:41] <Slart> zoddan: I would just boot a live and fix grub from there
[21:41] <Adam_> zoddan: just boot from the cd, choose the use ubuntu from cd option
[21:41] <adrian_> american megatrends bios, munged by google
[21:41] <zoddan> Slart: ok how?
[21:41] <Slart> !grub | zoddan
[21:41] <IndyGunFreak> zoddan: using the link i gave you 10minm ago
[21:41] <zoddan> Slart: no i dont want to do that
[21:41] <hajmola> what's a good program to create live-usb drives? (one that supports more than just ubuntu)
[21:41] <burkmat> Would `dd if=/dev/hda1 of=/dev/hda2` work assuming sizeOf(hda1) <= sizeOf(hda2)?
[21:41] <zoddan> i want to get into my current system with the CD
[21:41] <zoddan> not repearing grub

[21:47] <zoddan> Flannel: im using the Debian netinstall CD
[21:47] <yaris123456789> i'll try again
[21:47] <Flannel> zoddan: Or at least, its extremely easy to do with an alternate CD
[21:47] <jhonnyboy> can you guys stop ignoring me and someone please help :(
[21:47] <blue-printf> ive tried different power adapters to check if its ther hardware
[21:47] <n8tuser> zoddan -> we already told you can not, if you like to insist, keep on trying your magic
[21:47] <guntbert> zoddan: I understand you don't want to listen, you don't want to fix your system, you don't want to be polite and patient
[21:47] <Flannel> !repeat | jhonnyboy
[21:48] <Arsanerit> My friend doesn't know English very well, is there a Greek language equivalent of help.ubuntu.com ?
[21:48] <Slart> yaris123456789: if you write.. echo 'test' it does just that.. writes test... but if you write echo 'test and press enter it waits for the next '.. and you get the > prompt
[21:48] <zoddan> guntbert: well it seems to me that you dont even read my question
[21:48] <zoddan> and talking about something else
[21:48] <yaris123456789> n8tuser: newfile.txt wasn't created
[21:48] <jhonnyboy> hey guys i just finished installing ndiswrapper on ubuntu and installed the windows drivers for it. Do i need to restart for everything to take effect? When i try to configure the network through ndis it says could not find a network configuration tool. What could be the cause/solution of this?
[21:48] <Flannel> jhonnyboy: Please don't repeat your question so often.  We all read it the first four times.
[21:49] <Slart> zoddan: why not write a post about it on the forums.. if you keep this up in here you'll just get kicked when you get annoyed enough to start screaming insults at us.. it doesn't seem like any of us can understand what you want to do
[21:50] <rxbandit> does anyone know if you can run Hardware Drivers (restricted drivers) from the command line? Or how to search for the available commands like that?
[21:50] <commander_> hello guys
[21:50] <Slart> zoddan: don't take this the wrong way.. it's not an insult.. it's just that I've seen these kinds of discussions before.. they usually end up with one person calling someone else some bad things and then the ban hammer falls
[21:50] <blue-printf> is there a bug that makes ubuntu run on the battery power instead of netpower?
[21:51] <zoddan> Slart: i just want to boot my kernel with the help of a CD, whats not to understand?
[21:51] <Iornman1> can someone help me trouble shoot a bad nvidia card install
[21:51] <n8tuser> blue-printf -> what do you mean netpower?
[21:52] <Slart> zoddan: I'm not sure.. but several people here, including myself, don't understand what (or perhaps why) you want to do
[21:52] <Iornman1> after installing the nvidia driver through the restricted driver menu i restarted as asked now when i try and boot i get a black screen that ask me to log in
[21:52] <zoddan> Slart: ..
[21:52] <blue-printf> n8tuser: uh the power from the poweradapter. sorry dont know the word
[21:52] <Kai_wp> I'm trying to get dual-moniters working on my Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron installation with an nVidia 8600 GT XXX. I have the latest nVidia binary drivers installed. And I read on the forums that it should be easy to configure with "gksudo nvidia-settings". But when I run it a program starts in the bottom bar with the caption "Starting Administrati..." and then it closes a few seconds later. Does anyone know why it would do this? (Both mon
[21:52] <Kai_wp> plugged in through DVI by the way)
[21:52] <zoddan> Slart: ok i have a working installation of ubuntu on my harddrive, ok?
[21:52] <Slart> zoddan: perhaps you could try to explain why you want to do this.. there might be another way..
[21:53] <Slart> zoddan: ok
[21:53] <zoddan> Slart: but grub wont start so i cant start my ubuntu. ok?
[21:53] <Slart> zoddan: ok
[21:53] <blue-printf> i have my laptop on the poweradapter cord but the laptop is using  the battery
[21:53] <Iornman1> can anyone help me?
[21:53] <wassy121> Why do I need to run my 'gconftool-2 --get' commands through dbus-launch?
[21:53] <zoddan> Slart: o i have a Debian netinstall CD that i booted from, and im at the "boot" promt, ok?
[21:53] <n8tuser> blue-printf -> typically the brick power adapter charges your battery at same time powering your laptop
[21:53] <Slart> zoddan: so far, it's a common problem.. it happens for example when you install windows after you've installed ubuntu
[21:54] <zoddan> Slart: so need the command fo how to start the kernel on my harddrive from that promt,,, ok?
[21:54] <Slart> zoddan: boot prompt? in grub?
[21:54] <zoddan> Slart: i dont have windows
[21:54] <zoddan> Slart: no not in grub
[21:54] <blue-printf> n8tuser: its discharging the battery
[21:54] <Slart> zoddan: in lilo?
[21:54] <zoddan> Slart: when you but a Debian netinstall CD in you get to a promt
[21:54] <zoddan> Slart: you can type "expert" or "rescue" and so on
[21:54] <Flannel> zoddan: Right, that's a boot line.
[21:54] <zoddan> ye
[21:55] <zoddan> i need the command for the boot line to understand that it is suppose to boot my kernel thats on my harddrive
[21:55] <zoddan> ok?
[21:55] <n8tuser> blue-printf -> that is odd,  the brick is supposed to charge and power your laptop not to discharge the battery, did you check the brick if it has the correct output voltage?
[21:55] <Slart> zoddan: one sec...
[21:56] <Iornman1> after installing nvidia driver and restarting my computer will not start ubuntu now
[21:56] <Iornman1> how do i fix this
[21:56] <quentusrex> how do I restart alsa?
[21:57] <wassy121> quentusrex: sudo alsa reload
[21:57] <wassy121> or sudo alsa force-reload
[21:57] <blue-printf> n8tuser: its the original power adapter. i also tried one from another hp laptop
[21:57] <cplusplus2> whats the command to run a search from a path in the console?
[21:57] <blue-printf> hope my hardware isnt defect
[21:57] <cplusplus2> wann look for a highgui.h
[21:58] <guntbert> blue-printf: does your laptop have LEDs to show the powerstatus?
[21:58] <n8tuser> blue-printf -> check the brick if it is really have any output, i have a few that dont have the output voltage, the xfomer is burn i guess
[21:58] <blue-printf> found the problem
[21:58] <blue-printf> tried a third adapter and its working now
[21:58] <Slart> zoddan: going to try this in a vm.. almost finished the download of the netinstall iso
[21:59] <blue-printf> damn need a new one again
[21:59] <MatBoy> aah !!! why does ubuntu find not any network when everything is set right, route looks OK, and on dhcp it works
[21:59] <blue-printf> thanx for the help anyway
[21:59] <n8tuser> cplusplus2 -> find    man find
[21:59] <Gerinych> i get an error when i boot ubuntu "can't run module "type 1" (module does not exist)" or something similar. How do i fix this
[22:00] <n8tuser> MatBoy -> what network is it supposed to look for?
[22:01] <MatBoy> n8tuser: a local one, a debian box is working on it and a previous ubuntu install was too
[22:01] <Area300> what is the command to restart x after a config change in xorg.conf
[22:01] <Gerinych> how do i install module type1
[22:02] <n8tuser> Slart -> i suspect thats a busybox command prompt, and so i suspect a "boot"  with the correct params ?
[22:02] <rww> Area300: if X is running, Ctrl-Alt-Backspace. If not, "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" (assuming you're using GNOME)
[22:02] <Area300> rww: thank you i am on the latter
[22:02] <n8tuser> MatBoy -> is this wireless? ethernet? can you describe your network layout?
[22:03] <MatBoy> n8tuser: wired... to a route that is it's gateway
[22:03] <[aw]> hey anybody familiar with the "timer not connected to IO-APIC" error? Ubuntu 8.10 wont install for me
[22:03] <zoddan> anyway, you was so into fixing the grub... this i what grub says:
[22:03] <zoddan> grub-install '(hd0)'
[22:03] <zoddan> "/dev/sda5: Not found or not a block device"
[22:03] <MatBoy> n8tuser: weird is that is works on dhcp tho
[22:03] <zoddan> grub-install /dev/sda
[22:03] <zoddan> "/dev/sda: Not found or not a block device"
[22:03] <FloodBot1> zoddan: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:03] <Slart> n8tuser: don't think it's busybox.. afaik busybox has ls and other commands available
[22:03] <zoddan> that was only 4 lines, what is the problem?
[22:03] <Area300> I need to add BusID to both of my nvidia cards in the xorg.conf does anyone have any info on doing this that would help me please
[22:03] <portz> Anybody know why a bluetooth mouse scroll wheel wouldn't work?
[22:04] <zoddan> n8tuser: that is what grub says
[22:04] <Area300> !bluetooth
[22:04] <portz> Ah. Thanks.
[22:04] <jussi_> hello. Anyone know if there drivers for ati radeon hd 3850 AGP that work on Ubunutu
[22:04] <n8tuser> MatBoy -> maybe am not following, your box is getting an ip address? and have the correct route table entries but could not get very far?
[22:05] <MatBoy> n8tuser: on dhcp it works ok, bt when I set working parameters manually it doesn't
[22:05] <portz> Area300: Not the information I need. The mouse works fine. The scroll wheel doesn't.
[22:06] <arkanabar> I wrote a 50mb partition onto a 150g drive; is there any software that can help me recover that data?
[22:06] <n8tuser> MatBoy -> am not really following you, on dhcp as oppose to what?  what working parameters are you referring to? what command are you issuing?
[22:06] <Slart> n8tuser: it's using something called SBM.. Smart Boot Manager.. perhaps that's it
[22:06] <SudoKing> Hello ... I recently tried to change the deinterlacing method in my system settings, however, after rebooting my computer, the setting appears to be the same and the music has a different accent, and doesn't even work in some applications.  Can I reset the configuration for Xine or have it reconfigure the soundcard?
[22:07] <Kai_wp> Does anyone have any idea of a solution for my dual-moniter problem?
[22:07] <MatBoy> n8tuser: justa interfaces setup and a resolv.conf
[22:07] <MatBoy> justd efault stuff
[22:07] <Area300> portz: maybe your mouse needs a spcific driver to function properly
[22:07] <jony_kalavera> so basicaly i need to complile php4 from scratch? or is there a repository i can add to install it in 8.04?
[22:07] <n8tuser> Slart ahh okay, smart boot managers do have a list of commands too, i cant recall those command off hand at the moment
[22:08] <on_new_box> How much swap should I partition for with 4gb or RAM?
[22:08] <tenang> hey guys how you all doin
[22:08] <portz> Area300: Didn't come with a drivers disk, I don't think.
[22:08] <Slart> n8tuser: hmm.. I just found a screenshot of SBM and it's more of a norton commander type of gui
[22:08] <RPS> guys does anyone know if there is an irc channel that deals with the email client Evolution? I've not had any luck finding one. :(
[22:08] <n8tuser> MatBoy -> its really hard to understand what you have done, can you kindly  tell me what commands you issued?
[22:08] <tenang> mozzilla thunderbird
[22:08] <tilgovi> I can't seem to get Vinagre to exit fullscreen mode. Tried Ctrl-Alt, F11, F8, which i've seen listed around. Nothing works. Any ideas
[22:09] <n8tuser> Slart -> right, its like an old ncurses menu if i recall
[22:09] <zoddan> "dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part 5 does not have any corresponding BIOS driver."
[22:09] <zoddan> "dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc does not have any corresponding BIOS driver."
[22:09] <GringoChapin> Hi all, I'm trying to setup automatic time correction on a Ubuntu box.  Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be able to connect to ntp servers. It's possible that those ports are blocked by an external firewall.  Does anyone know of one running on port 80, or another work around?
[22:09] <MatBoy> n8tuser: ok, it seems that it can't ping the gatway
[22:09] <MatBoy> *gateway
[22:09] <tenang> so who knows where I can download wine 1.18 for 8.10 ubuntu intrepid?
[22:10] <arkanabar> I accidentally used CloneZilla to write a 50mb partition onto a 150gb disk -- is there anything I can do to recover data from the lost partition?
[22:10] <n8tuser> MatBoy -> would you like to step back a few and lets go over what you have done?
[22:10] <MatBoy> n8tuser: listen, I have a working debian install with the same settings
[22:11] <Area300> portz: i dont konw if it will work but this post is talking alot about your problam http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-355695.html
[22:11] <MatBoy> so, same switch, so I figure out WHY it can't ping the gatway
[22:11] <zoddan> n8tuser: got any smarter?
[22:11] <n8tuser> MatBoy -> what commands you typed on ubuntu?
[22:11] <MatBoy> n8tuser: come on, I not a n00b, ping,traceroute, so on
[22:12] <dimm> hello! how i can recovery password for irc?
[22:12] <MatBoy> dimm: don't logout first !!
[22:12] <MatBoy> dimm: ask #freenode
[22:12] <MatBoy> they can help as long as you didn't logout
[22:12] <commander_> does anyone know if you can sync a Blackberry curve 8330 w/Ibex/
[22:13] <n8tuser> zoddan -> nope, I doubt it if you can boot that bootloader and then point to another partition to pick up the rest..but you seem to be a good at boot loading, you can try anything
[22:13] <tenang> anyone know where to get wine v1.18 for ubuntu intrepid?
[22:14] <n8tuser> MatBoy -> one last time, what command did you use in ubuntu to check?  other than ping, do you have an ip address?
[22:14] <Dueland> Hi, do I have to reinstall my ubuntu-server system if i add more ram?
[22:14] <Myrtti> Dueland: no
[22:14] <Dueland> figures, thanks :)
[22:14] <MatBoy> n8tuser: yes, sorry, I will figure it out my own... thanks
[22:14] <tenang> who knows how to install combat arms?
[22:14]  * MatBoy is getting tired of the same questions
[22:15] <zoddan> n8tuser: what?
[22:15] <n8tuser> MatBoy -> you seem to have an issue with answering a simple question of what command you typed
[22:15] <arkanabar> I accidentally used CloneZilla to write a 50mb partition onto a 150gb disk -- is there anything I can do to recover data from the lost partition?
[22:15] <MatBoy> n8tuser: I told you man, maybe you should read better ?
[22:15] <GringoChapin> Anyone have any ideas on how I might keep my system clock in sync when the standard ntp ports are blocked?
[22:15] <MatBoy> n8tuser: you are quite annoying in being right, sorry...
[22:16] <n8tuser> zoddan ->  i dont believe what you're trying will work..
[22:16] <portz> Well, I found another mouse. Thanks anyway, Area!
[22:16] <zoddan> n8tuser: what am i trying then?
[22:16] <parceltounge> hi

[22:16] <MatBoy> *smoked
[22:16] <zoddan> ?
[22:16] <n8tuser> MatBoy -> you can not answer a simple question of does your box have an ip address?
[22:16] <MatBoy> zoddan: you don; t know where he is talking about "trying"
[22:16] <tenang> so I take it no one here knows how to get wine v1.18?
[22:17] <Slart> zoddan: the boot loader is called isolinux
[22:17] <sifuschwager> why do you need wine 1.18?
[22:17] <MatBoy> n8tuser: huh what has that to do with what I typed ?? yes it has !! as I said before, I can't ONLY ping the gatway
[22:17] <n8tuser> zoddan -> are you here to troll? i told you i dont believe what you're attempting will work
[22:17] <MatBoy> *gateway
[22:17] <on_new_box> How much swap should I partition for with 4gb or RAM?
[22:17] <MatBoy> n8tuser: you are seriously trolling and not reading well
[22:17] <zoddan> n8tuser: ..... that was my atempt to fix grub but ok .....
[22:17] <sifuschwager> 4gb
[22:17] <tenang> wine 1.18 is the only one that will install a game that kept me on windows called combat arms
[22:17] <sifuschwager> fo sho
[22:17] <n8tuser> MatBoy -> is the gateway on same subnet as your ip address?
[22:17] <tenang> the newer wine doesn't work with it in intrepid
[22:17] <sifuschwager> have you tried fallout 3 perchance?
[22:18] <Slart> zoddan: http://syslinux.zytor.com seem to be the main site for isolinux.. not sure if there is anything useful
[22:18] <parceltounge> configure: error: You can't use libhal _and_ libusb. Select only one.
[22:18] <parceltounge> im getting this error
[22:18] <MatBoy> n8tuser: yes, and as I said.. I have the same settings, only different IP on a debian host that works perfectly
[22:18] <parceltounge> im trying to install libusb modual
[22:18] <tenang> fallout 3 as in the game?
[22:19] <sifuschwager> yeah
[22:19] <sifuschwager> i was trying to get it working
[22:19] <MatBoy> I have the idea that itś a ubuntu-server issue
[22:19] <martin__> i just plugged in an ntfs formatted hard drive via usb and i don't see it, though dmesg says it mounted to sdd1 and ntfs-3g is up to date, any tips?
[22:19] <tenang> lol my rl life friends are on combat arms otherwise I might be up for it
[22:19] <sifuschwager> too bad.
[22:19] <capa> how to install kismet in hardy?
[22:19] <n8tuser> MatBoy -> why is it you are making it  so difficult to answer my queries?
[22:19] <sifuschwager> i just couldnt figure out how to get it installed.
[22:20] <core_> help!!! dnsmasq start failed,  Address already in use
[22:20] <tenang> I think cebega is supposed to get fallout 3 working
[22:20] <sifuschwager> its been out for a few months so i figured somebody had it
[22:20] <sifuschwager> i havent heard of this
[22:20] <MatBoy> n8tuser: sorry... going to ignore you, you are trolling only with several of people... take some pills ?
[22:20] <capa> how to install kismet in hardy?
[22:20] <n8tuser> Matboy dont worry you are the one having a fit ..
[22:20] <psicobra> any one here know anything about synce
[22:21] <tenang> look at the tutorial?
[22:21] <alanbell> is there an Ubuntu MID or lpia architecture (Atom) IRC channel?
[22:21] <jpds> alanbell: #ubuntu-mobile.
[22:22] <sifuschwager> its not listed under their compatibility chart
[22:22] <Fuzzy> guys help me, when my friend is booting the live cd he has the error reading CD, what it could be?
[22:22] <martin__> Fuzzy, does the cd work in another computer?
[22:22] <tenang> noooooo isohunt doesn't have v1.18 lol
[22:22] <Slart> Fuzzy: scratched cd, broken cd reader
[22:22] <sifuschwager> to get the obvious out of the way- the cd works right>
[22:22] <alanbell> jpds: thanks
[22:22] <on_new_box> How much swap should I partition for with 4gb or RAM?
[22:23] <Flannel> on_new_box: Do you plan on hibernating?
[22:23] <Slart> on_new_box: do you plan on using hibernation?
[22:23] <sifuschwager> anyone feel like helping me get fallout 3 going on my new computer?
[22:23] <Slart> bah..need faster fingers =)
[22:23] <tenang> id swap 2 personally just because I don't like swapping much
[22:23] <on_new_box> Flannel:   Slart:  Probably.
[22:23] <Flannel> on_new_box: Then you'll need at least 4GB
[22:23] <Slart> sifuschwager: have you checked the application database?
[22:23] <gradin> how can i embed video stored on my webserver and stream it
[22:24] <tenang> yah he has 4gb lol
[22:24] <Flannel> on_new_box: but, I don't see any reason to have more than that.
[22:24] <n8tuser> on_new_box -> and if you do plan, a swap can easily be created or expanded,
[22:24] <Slart> sifuschwager: http://appdb.winehq.org
[22:24] <sifuschwager> Ive spent quite a  bit of time looking online.
[22:24] <Fuzzy> martin__, and what if on another computer it will work?
[22:24] <sifuschwager> but not this particular area. thanks Ill check.
[22:24] <core_> help!!! I try to serup dhcp server, dnsmasq can't start:  Address already in use * failed
[22:24] <Slart> on_new_box: I have 4GB and had no swap at all for a long time
[22:24] <Slart> on_new_box: but I didn't use hibernation
[22:25] <on_new_box> Flannel: n8tuser:  Thanks.  I'm not sure if I will be using hibernation as it is a desktop machine.
[22:25] <simplexio> gradin: there is several ways for it. chech about vlc, darwin etc
[22:25] <on_new_box> Thanks as well Slart
[22:25] <GringoChapin> fuzzy: then the CD drive on your friends computer is probably broken.
[22:25] <hectorpal> Help: I can't type the letter 'o' in gnome-terminal, but I can here, gedit, etc. Any idea?
[22:25] <snake_> hello to all. i have a strange problem. i was playing with the icons and now i get a very big mouse pointer in the desktop only. in every window and folder the pointer is ok but in the desktop not. anyone ? thank you
[22:26] <Slart> hectorpal: try checking the shortcut keys.. it's in one of the menus
[22:26] <hectorpal> Thanks
[22:27] <hectorpal> weird, it self repaired
[22:27] <bazzelio> hi all
[22:27] <hectorpal> snake_ have you restart?
[22:27] <snake_> i tried changing the pointer and restarting X but that didnt helped. the pointer changes but not in desktop
[22:27] <hectorpal> hum...
[22:28] <hectorpal> oh, no! That's even more weird. If I have multiple tabs in gnome-terminal, I can't type 'o'. But having one tab, works perfect
[22:30] <n8tuser> does anyone ever come across a laptop that has  Spanish language in the bios? how was that made? i called sony and they only support english
[22:30] <Gerinych> >>>where do i get type1 module from
[22:32] <persei> No more room in my /boot directory ;-( is it possible using synaptic to do a search for let's say 2.6.24-16 and to remove the five files with that termination. I want to be sure all files related to that 2.6.24-16 kernel will be removed.
[22:32] <hectorpal> n8tuser: I've seen that. There should be an option in bios for changing it
[22:32] <GringoChapin> Anyone have any ideas on how I might keep my system clock in sync when the standard ntp ports are blocked?
[22:32] <rww> Gerinych: Did you manually put it in xorg.conf, or is it getting loaded automatically somehow? Because type1 got replaced by freetype in most systems a while ago.
[22:33] <hectorpal> persei: I think you can use dpkg to remove the old kernel
[22:33] <lappi> join/ ubuntu-de#
[22:33] <rww> n8tuser: I have, but there was an option to change the BIOS language in there, so it wasn't too problematic.
[22:33] <Gerinych> rww: i ran nvidia-xconfig through terminal and it added a line to load it
[22:33] <n8tuser> hectopal i did aske Sony support, and they claim ignorance, we only suppot english..nah nah na..
[22:33] <lappi> join/ ubuntu-de#
[22:33] <rww> Gerinych: I don't use nvidia, but I'm pretty sure you can just remove that line.
[22:33] <rww> lappi: /join #ubuntu-de
[22:34] <lappi> thx
[22:34] <n8tuser> rww do you recall which key combination you pressed to change it to spanish?
[22:34] <Gerinych> rww: i did, but my driver is still screwed up, i think i need that line to fix the driver
[22:34] <persei> hectorpal: apt-get or dpkg ? does that work : dpkg deinstall *2.6.24-16* ?
[22:34] <hectorpal> n8tuser: look around in the bios until you see spanish or "español" and click it.
[22:35] <Brack102> downloading openoffice.org from http://archive.us.ubuntu.com is going REALLLY slow....shouldn't it be at least kinda fast?
[22:35] <hectorpal> persei: I don't think that's the name of the package
[22:36] <hectorpal> persei: try to find the name of package first: dpkg --search /boot/a-file-i-am-sure-belongs-to-that-kernel, it returns package name. then you uninstall it
[22:36] <persei> ok, thanks
[22:36] <rww> n8tuser: I opened up the BIOS and navigated around until I found something that looked like "Language", then changed it from there =/
[22:37] <n8tuser> Hector -> nope, i have not seen anything at all in the bios to indicate switching to another language or locale, i was hoping some of you may have the key combo, that am not aware of
[22:37] <Hector> . . wha?
[22:37] <hectorpal> HELP: If I have multiple tabs in gnome-terminal, I can't type 'o'. But having one tab, works perfect. Having two maps, and typing 'o' in the most left one, switch to the next tab.
[22:37] <n8tuser> rww is it a Sony vaio by chance?
[22:37] <Hector> n8tuser -> Wrong Hector.
[22:37] <cplusplus> how could a add the path of a .so file during starting of a program?
[22:37] <n8tuser> hectorpal -> nope, i have not seen anything at all in the bios to indicate switching to another language or locale, i was hoping some of you may have the key combo, that am not aware of
[22:37] <rww> Gerinych: Hmm. I doubt that's the problem; try some of the troubleshooting steps in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia#Troubleshooting , maybe?
[22:37] <rww> n8tuser: nope, sorry :(
[22:38] <TheFunkbomb> hey, what's google's IP address?
[22:38] <cplusplus> how could a add the path of a .so file during starting of a program?
[22:38] <GringoChapin> Brack102: there are lots of reasons it could be a slow download, server/network congestion is a good bet.
[22:39] <rww> TheFunkbomb: They have a bunch of them. One is <IP_ADDRESS>.
[22:39] <cplusplus> TheFunkbomb, <IP_ADDRESS>

[22:41] <lifenova> Help, anyone? I want to convert my home folder to a separate partition rather than including it in the root partition. Can I do this without reinstalling?
[22:41] <GringoChapin> nslookup google.com
[22:41] <rww> !separatehome | lifenova
[22:41] <lifenova> rww, thanks.
[22:42] <rww> lifenova: you're welcome. I'll get around to doing that too at some point :)
[22:42] <Area300> ok does anyone here use Nvidia 8 or 9000 siers video cards 2 at a time? if so can i look at your xorg.conf and see what i am missing ?
[22:42] <hectorpal> Slart: thank you! it works
[22:42] <Slart> hectorpal: you found some shortcut key?
[22:43] <TheMusicGuy> Help, please...I'm not sure why, but I can't hear Rythmbox playing anymore, though I can hear Totem, Exaile, Audacity, etc.
[22:43] <hectorpal> Slart: yes, it was changed to 'o', but I haven't done anything
[22:43] <Slart> hectorpal: hmm.. computers.. reliable.. pfff =)
[22:43] <hectorpal> Slart: :-)
[22:43] <rww> hectorpal: this happened to someone else with pidgin a while ago. give me a minute and i'll look for how we fixed it.
[22:43] <Area300> TheMusicGuy>have you tryed turning the sound back up in Rythmbox ?
[22:43] <TheMusicGuy> the sound is not off.
[22:44] <TheMusicGuy> I checked.
[22:44] <hectorpal> rww: I've corrected mine. I've use pidgin, but not today.
[22:44] <TheMusicGuy> I turned the Rythmbox volume (top-right corner, right?) all the way down and back up again.
[22:44] <snake_> ok i tried restarting x and the pc but that doesnt solve the problem. i get the big mouse pointer now in folders and all windows borders but not inside the apps. i get a big mouse in firefox borders but not inside firefox. any idea ?
[22:44] <Gerinych> rww: i tried something from there, the type1 is gone, but i get a new error when i boot ubuntu "Your screen, graphics card, and input device settings could not be detected correctly. You will need to configure these yourself" any way to fix this?
[22:45] <Area300> TheMusicGuy: there is main volume and Rythm volume .. did that once .. one was all way down and other wasnt
[22:45] <rww> hectorpal: oh, sorry, didn't see that Slart helped you already. Glad you got it fixed :)
[22:45] <hectorpal> rww: thanks!
[22:45] <TheMusicGuy> Area300: Well, when you mention my name, Pidgin chimes to tell me, so I know my main volume is fine.
[22:45] <hectorpal> bye people! Ubuntu go!
[22:45] <Area300> TheMusicGuy: or it may be trying to output on the wrong device

[22:46] <SteveHill> I just upgraded to 8.10 from 8.04 and my sound no longer works. Can anyone suggest a troubleshooting scenario??

[22:46] <perillux> I hate samba with a passion!
[22:47] <dr_willis> perillux,  i got no issues with samba.. its with how MS seesm to constantly change things with visa/xp/confuse things.. that i have issues with.
[22:47] <perillux> dr_willis: it never works for me, I've tried everything!
[22:47] <lifenova> Another question; I'm trying to resize my windows partition (winxp: ntfs), but I have an error icon next to it in gparted. Clicking on information gives me this, at the bottom: "Warning! Unable to read the contents of this file system! Because of this some operations may be unavailable." It's not mounted, I've checked.
[22:47] <Gerinych> does anyone know how to fix this error: "Your screen, graphics card, and input device settings could not be detected correctly. You will need to configure these yourself." It appears when I boot ubuntu
[22:48] <Area300> TheMusicGuy: hmm my box is down right now or i could tell you lol .. i think it was under options or somehting like that look for play back and it should be hmm thats where i get fuzzy ... your sound card i bleave but not positive
[22:48] <dr_willis> perillux,  I have few issues with it.. other then some quirks with vista/xp at the moment.   I  do tend to follow some procedures to keep things simple.. Install samba server.. edit smb.conf to set workgroup. enable home shares.. give each user  a samba password with 'sudo smbpasswd -a USERNAME' and on the window machines I also
[22:48] <dr_willis> perillux,  give each windows users the identical password.  - That seems to cure a lot of issues
[22:49] <TheMusicGuy> Area300: There's nothing like that in the preferences.
[22:49] <Area300> TheMusicGuy: i would think that there website would have some more indepth info on it.
[22:49] <unluckier> hi. can someone give me thed efault permissions for /tmp please?
[22:49] <jrib> unluckier: 777 root:root
[22:49] <perillux> dr_willis: none of my windows users have passwords
[22:49] <n8tuser> unluckier -> drwxrwxrwt
[22:49] <jrib> unluckier: +t  as n8tuser said :)
[22:51] <dr_willis> perillux,  that may be the whole issue then
[22:51] <dr_willis> perillux,  ive noticed that windows dosent like to save some info/reconnect without users havving passwords
[22:51] <fariq> selam
[22:51] <dr_willis> perillux,  you may want to check out 'guest' shares in the samba docs.  There may be some info on getting around that in there.
[22:52] <TheMusicGuy> Rythmbox says "could not connect to socket", and later it says "Rhythmbox-WARNING **: Could not open device /dev/radio0"
[22:52] <archman_> guys, can you name some rapidshare manager with premium support?
[22:52] <ikonia> archman_: thats offtopic here
[22:52] <jrib> archman_: wget
[22:52] <perillux> dr_willis: ok i'll check it out
[22:53] <bogdan> is it possible to increase the wubi partition to more than 30 gigs?
[22:53] <archman_> jrib: tnx!
[22:53] <jrib> archman_: you probably want to google "wget rapidshare"
[22:54] <Flannel> bogdan: I don't think there's a limit put on it; but I may be ignorant.
[22:54] <dr_willis> perillux,  just dont ask me why my Vista Machines cant see each other.. but both can access the linux samba server. :) Been fighting that for a week
[22:54] <Jack_Sparrow> bogdan, Please read the wubi faq and understand how it differs from a regular partition install and you will understand why I wont use nor recommend wubi as a method of installation
[22:54] <Gerinych> does anyone know how to fix this error: "Your screen, graphics card, and input device settings could not be detected correctly. You will need to configure these yourself." It appears when I boot ubuntu, my nvidia drivers are busted and i have no idea how to fix them
[22:55] <rww> bogdan: Go to http://lubi.sourceforge.net/lvpm.html and scroll down to the "Resizing virtual disks..." section near the bottom. It's a little complicated, but doable.
[22:55] <bogdan> rww: okay, thanks.
[22:55] <ito_> hi. quick cli question. how do I ssh using an interface eth1 or higher? My pc wont let me ssh into a computer on the same network usin my eth1 plug
[22:55] <n8tuser> dr_willis -> why does your vista machines do not see each other?  hehehe
[22:55] <bogdan> Jack_Sparrow: I'm not using it permanently, it's just that I need to do a task under Linux, and it's easier this way.
[22:55] <Kai_wp> I'm trying to get dual-moniters working on my Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron installation with an nVidia 8600 GT XXX. I have the latest nVidia binary drivers installed. And I read on the forums that it should be easy to configure with "gksudo nvidia-settings". But when I run it a program starts in the bottom bar with the caption "Starting Administrati..." and then it closes a few seconds later. Does anyone know why it would do this? (Both mon
[22:55] <Kai_wp> plugged in through DVI by the way)
[22:55] <jester-> Gerinych: need to insert refresh video rate in xorg.conf
[22:56] <dr_willis> n8tuser,  i wish i knew.. been having this issue for a fes days now.. Im wonder ing if its not some how getting the wrong names from my samba server. I gotat go downstairs to print. :(
[22:56] <perillux> dr_willis: my windows machines can SEE my samba server (but not connect)  and my samba server can't even see itself  lol
[22:56] <Gerinych> jester-: where exactly
[22:56] <n8tuser> ito_ -> can you elaborate on your network layout? how many nics on same subnet? route table okay?
[22:56] <Jack_Sparrow> bogdan, Not a problem..  We have had two people here in the last 24 hours that lost their ntfs / winodws OS partition while using Wubi.. but the two factors are not completely related
[22:57] <n8tuser> dr_willis -> they each have an ip address? can they ping one another?
[22:57] <dr_willis> perillux,  do NOT NOT NOT 'trust' the gnome file manager to see shares/servers - ive found that it is very probelmatic in broswing/exploreing the shares/servers -  It wont see anything.. i type in the full url   to the fileserver/share  - an Poof it sees it then.
[22:57] <dr_willis> n8tuser,  yes. :) they can also access the fileserver fine.

[23:01] <Mallen_> a basic college 150 C++ class assignment
[23:01] <Gerinych> jester-: ill try that, thanks
[23:01] <dr_willis> Mallen_,  you really need to be more specific and proper in your terms...      You are wanting a C++ COmpiler?
[23:01] <dr_willis> 'c++ program' is really really vague.
[23:02] <hoboman> and or, does anyone know why i cant add 'screens and graphics' (displayconfig-gtk) to the apps other menu in ibex, why it doesnt work? i was considering to install ibex but i cant fix my resolution from being too big unless i get that settings controller open.
[23:02] <lifenova> I'm trying to resize my windows partition (winxp: ntfs), but I have an error icon next to it in gparted. Clicking on information gives me this, at the bottom: "Warning!

[23:03] <Stieffers> To re-enable: /etc/init.d/kdm restart
[23:03] <Stieffers> If you're running KDE.
[23:03] <TheMusicGuy> I have a different question.

[23:06] <hoboman> i tried to find out by running gksu displayconfig-gtk .... however it didnt load under ibex whats with that
[23:06] <TheMusicGuy> I had to redirect the Rhythmbox audio stream to ALSA rather than RTP
[23:07] <newserbunto> any ideas?
