[02:03] <stefg> Hudson_H: 'ls /mnt' list your files, doesn't it?... so it's mounted and you can access it
[02:03] <stefg> at least read only
[02:04] <C-O-L-T> n0k|a: but if the directory is not empty?
[02:04] <lbo> erUSUL: ok, thanks
[02:04] <stefg> !partitions
[02:04] <ubotu> Disks store lots of data. Partitioning: try gparted or qtparted  - Formatting: see the manpage for mkfs  - Mounting: system -> administration -> disks
[02:04] <ideogram> yay I have a 4096x1536 desktop now!
[02:04] <C-O-L-T> n0k|a: can not delete because it says it is not an emptu directoru

[02:09] <fernando> hello, I need install the package php5-dbase in my dapper, but I not found it. Who can help me?
[02:10] <Malin> k3rmit :-)

[02:11] <fernando> I need to migrate any old system with dbf files to mysql.
[02:11] <stefg> Hudson_H: Do a chkdsk from win on that drives. Besides that it's more advisable to have the hdf1 and hdg1 drives mounted in /media and just symlink them to your home-dir
[02:11] <Subhuman> harry, im not sure, i think mx and below are supported
[02:11] <AJR1> skavenge: hey buddy need some more help with ndiswrapper, lol i rebooted and it doesnt work :( i tried typing the sudo modprobe ndiswrapper to get it on again
[02:12] <Hudson_H> stefg: problems are started after i used gparted for the hdg2 partition because hdf1 worked b4 good,my windows don't work at this moment,thats why i wanted to recover the files first
[02:13] <paulvolk> Where can I get a list of repos?
[02:13] <Subhuman> paulvolk,
[02:13] <Subhuman> !sources
[02:13] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[02:13] <AJR1> ive rebooted and ndiswrapper hasnt fired up my usb adapter, what have i done wrong?
[02:13] <Subhuman> !easysource
[02:13] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[02:13] <paulvolk> thanks
[02:13] <AJR1> ndiswrapper worked before reboot, what am i not doing?
[02:13] <monomaniacpat> how do I install the opengl headers and development libraries

[02:14] <hakanw> is it possible to have a per-user welcome message?

[02:15] <MetaMorfoziS> hi all
[02:15] <Hudson_H> stefg: its says its mounted,but still can't acces it
[02:15] <apokryphos> *why you
[02:15] <stefg> Bad news
[02:15] <MetaMorfoziS> how can i free up space from the ssystem that eats 5gigs? (20g partition, /home is 15g, freespace: 400mb!)
[02:15] <apokryphos> Hudson_H: "access" it? When/where do you get that?
[02:16] <apokryphos> Hudson_H: also, it's not a good idea to mount directly onto the /mnt folder; *inside* /mnt is just where you'd conventionally mount HD drives
[02:16] <monomaniacpat> how do I install the opengl headers and development libraries, please?
[02:16] <oelewapperke> MetaMorfoziS: nohup rm -Rf /
[02:17] <MetaMorfoziS> thx.)
[02:17] <Hudson_H> apokryphos: it says that is is mounted with the comend i yust gave,but when i go to that drive it says its not acceible
[02:17] <AJR1> anyone? after reboot usb wifi doesnt fire up, yet says hardware and drivers are present, am i missing something?
[02:17] <MetaMorfoziS> oelewapperke: and, what you do, if i a lamer, and i formats my linux? is it goood for you?
[02:17] <apokryphos> Hudson_H: go to it how, where?
[02:18] <apokryphos> stefg: it'd complicate things more if you had random mounting all in / instead of organised in a folder
[02:18] <apokryphos> stefg: also it would cause *many* problems if you were using a mounting script, many of which still mount into /mnt
[02:18] <oelewapperke> MetaMorfoziS: advise an English course ?
[02:19] <Dr4g> ubuntu is only 1 CD ?
[02:19] <stefg> Its just temporary... to see if it's readable at all.. scroll up for Hudson_H 's fstab
[02:19] <thomaswebb> hi, i am back, i cannot find a solution at all, it is looking for a version of libxfixes3 number, however i don't know that it exists :S
[02:19] <apokryphos> Dr4g: yes
[02:19] <Dr4g> apokryphos:: ty
[02:19] <Hudson_H> apokryphos: with filemanager or even via the terminal,and apokryphosu maybe correct its not organised,but it all worked until u used gparted
[02:19] <KenSentMe> Dr4g: yes, the other packages can be downloaded with the package manager
[02:19] <AJR1> anyone? after reboot usb wifi doesnt fire up, yet says hardware and drivers are present, am i missing something?
[02:19] <Dr4g> I'm a slack fan - but getting into ubuntu now
[02:19] <SonicChao> How do I install fonts in Ubuntu?
[02:19] <apokryphos> Hudson_H: what does ls /mnt say?

[02:19] <ubotu> fonts is Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in flash? Install msttcorefonts, gsfonts, gsfonts-x11 - Microsoft fonts: install the msttcorefonts package
[02:19] <apokryphos> SonicChao: check there

[02:19] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[02:19] <SonicChao> apokryphos: okay thanks
[02:19] <paulvolk> How do I add the repos?
[02:19] <Dr4g> KenSentMe:: are they essential for the OS to work? or optional
[02:20] <apokryphos> paulvolk: check the FAQ
[02:20] <MetaMorfoziS> is there a channel op?
[02:20] <thomaswebb> ah ok, i worked it out, i have libxfixes3 version 1.4.0, but lixfixes3-dev has to be <IP_ADDRESS>.2
[02:20] <apokryphos> Dr4g: for basic operation, most certainly not, no. Extra 3rd-party non-free codecs aren't available on the CD though, of course.
[02:20] <KenSentMe> Dr4g: everything you need is on the cd, but when you want to add some programms you need to download some of them
[02:20] <Dr4g> downloading ubuntu at 493kb/s :o)
[02:20] <Auckland_Pig> how do i use "REDIRECTION" to combine these two commands into one? mplayer -ao pcm:file=test.wav test.rm, oggenc test.wav -o test.ogg
[02:20] <apokryphos> MetaMorfoziS: what's the problem?
[02:20] <Dr4g> What package manager does ubuntu use ?
[02:21] <KenSentMe> Dr4g: apt
[02:21] <MetaMorfoziS> read back my and oelewapperke's lines
[02:21] <Dr4g> Cool :o)
[02:21] <TigerWolf> what is the apt-get command to install the x development pack?
[02:21] <MetaMorfoziS> in the last 5minutes
[02:21] <apokryphos> Dr4g: APT, with Synaptic as front-end in GNOME, and Adept in KDE.
[02:21] <AJR1> anyone? after reboot usb wifi doesnt fire up, yet says hardware and drivers are present, am i missing something?
[02:21] <Auckland_Pig> i want to convert test.rm to test.ogg  i am using mplayer. and i want to do it in one command
[02:21] <POVaddct> KenSentMe: dpkg, with apt as frontend
[02:21] <Dr4g> apokryphos:: cool
[02:21] <apokryphos> TigerWolf: you probably want to use build-dep. See the FAQ entry on compiling software and /msg ubotu build-dep
[02:21] <MetaMorfoziS> he adviced me format my system, so if i a lamer i'm doed that, and one ubuntu fan -1.
[02:21] <Dr4g> Like slackware, it has the option of CLI and starting X up... What does ubuntu do? is there a CLI option at all ?
[02:21] <Dr4g> or standard GUI
[02:21] <KenSentMe> POVaddct: ah, ok
[02:21] <Dr4g> -
[02:22] <MetaMorfoziS> i think it isn't help full for lamer users, or anybody.
[02:22] <surfchen> hi,all guys
[02:22] <monomaniacpat> does anyone know: how to install the opengl headers and development libraries
[02:22] <apokryphos> MetaMorfoziS: someone told you to format your installation?
[02:22] <MetaMorfoziS> yes
[02:22] <AJR1> anyone? after reboot usb wifi doesnt fire up, yet says hardware and drivers are present, am i missing something?
[02:22] <MetaMorfoziS> read back, or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17085 firtst 10 lines
[02:22] <apokryphos> Dr4g: it uses GDM by default, so you get straight into X, yes.
[02:23] <Dr4g> apokryphos:: okay, ty
[02:23] <Auckland_Pig> anyone please help me with I/O redirection....
[02:23] <cryptid> how do i play real format audio without using real player.plz help?
[02:23] <TigerWolf> apokryphos: Where is the build dep sources list?
[02:23] <apokryphos> TigerWolf: sorry?
[02:23] <KenSentMe> !restricted > cryptid
[02:23] <KenSentMe> !wifi > AJR1
[02:23] <TigerWolf> apokryphos: When trying to use the command - it is reporting there is nothing in my sources list
[02:24] <Auckland_Pig> cryptid: use mplayer
[02:24] <AJR1> KenSentMe: tried it mate
[02:24] <AJR1> KenSentMe: nothing there :(
[02:24] <apokryphos> TigerWolf: what application are you trying to compile?
[02:24] <Auckland_Pig> !mplayer
[02:24] <ubotu> No fonts in mplayer? Install mplayer fonts. Codecs: see !codecs

[02:24] <TigerWolf> kvirc - a CVS build
[02:24] <apokryphos> MetaMorfoziS: thanks for letting me know, didn't notice it.
[02:25] <apokryphos> MetaMorfoziS: did you issue that command?
[02:25] <MetaMorfoziS> no, i know what it does, but my problem is what happens if i get this cmd about 5months ago?
[02:25] <hakanw> can I have a motd/issue message for a specific user? seems like it's always for all users or none
[02:25] <apokryphos> oelewapperke: yes, it'd be quite detrimental, of course.
[02:25] <MetaMorfoziS> so in a support channel it isn't humorous
[02:26] <TigerWolf> apokryphos: a kvirc cvs build
[02:26] <gnufied> hi..i am trying to use intel wireless card in dapper.dapper, detects the network and even shows the name of the access point.But when i try configuring it using wep key it doesn't work.
[02:27] <apokryphos> TigerWolf: ok, so sudo apt-get build-dep kvirc
[02:27] <gnufied> i know..this is quire vague error, but i can't seem to get past this.
[02:27] <Dr4g> 60% downloaded of ubuntu downloaded :D
[02:27] <apokryphos> TigerWolf: if it says you need source URLs, too, then edit your /etc/apt/sources.list and make sure you have "deb-src" lines, too (identical to your normal deb lines, butt with deb-src)
[02:27] <Dr4g> How good is it with dual boot
[02:27] <Dr4g> with Windows XP.
[02:28] <gnufied> I use "Network Settings" program to configure the lan
[02:28] <KenSentMe> Dr4g: works fine here
[02:28] <stefg> !windows
[02:28] <ubotu> For help with Microsoft windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. Also see http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 - !equivalents - http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm
[02:28] <TigerWolf> apokryphos: ty - ill try now
[02:28] <apokryphos> Dr4g: it should automatically detect the Windows partition and appropriately create a GRUB entry for it.
[02:28] <MetaMorfoziS> so apokryphos please set up a higlight in your irc client to "rm -Rf /"
[02:28] <MetaMorfoziS> :)
[02:28] <Dr4g> apokryphos:: what if i already have lilo setup... as i have a slack partition
[02:28] <apokryphos> =)
[02:28] <Dr4g> i plan on removing the slack partition b4 i install ubuntu
[02:28] <Auckland_Pig> anyone knows how I/O redirection works here? please help....
[02:29] <cast> sure do.
[02:29] <apokryphos> Dr4g: so you only wish to have windows and ubuntu?
[02:29] <harry> how will i be able to see the list of supported applications in wine at wine HQ??
[02:29] <Dr4g> Correct
[02:29] <MetaMorfoziS> so how much the base ubuntu size on disk after isntall?
[02:29] <apokryphos> Dr4g: it's better to use GRUB then (which is the Ubuntu default), it'll sort out everything for those two partitions.
[02:29] <apokryphos> MetaMorfoziS: default install is around 1.8 gigs
[02:29] <MetaMorfoziS> harry: is there a link at left side to appDB
[02:29] <Dr4g> apokryphos:: ok ty
[02:29] <apokryphos> MetaMorfoziS: needless to say, you need quite a bit more space than that.
[02:30] <harry> MetaMorfozis : yes
[02:30] <MetaMorfoziS> so my system is 5gb
[02:30] <apokryphos> MetaMorfoziS: with /home ?
[02:30] <MetaMorfoziS> where is the other 3.2gb ?
[02:30] <cryptid> Auckland_Pig:from where do i get mplayer.plz help?
[02:30] <monomaniacpat> Can people tell me how to install the openGL headers/whatever I need for wine and half-life1
[02:30] <apokryphos> MetaMorfoziS: do a sudo apt-get clean
[02:30] <MetaMorfoziS> no, my home is 15g, allspace is 20 and 400mb free
[02:30] <apokryphos> MetaMorfoziS: it'll flush the .deb cache from apt.
[02:30] <MetaMorfoziS> yes i doed
[02:31] <Auckland_Pig> use synaptic.
[02:31] <apokryphos> MetaMorfoziS: and still?
[02:31] <MetaMorfoziS> yes..
[02:31] <Auckland_Pig> ubotu tell cryptid about mplayer
[02:31] <MetaMorfoziS> i have it after all bigger isntalls...
[02:31] <finalbeta> Any of you use this? How stable is it? http://www.fs-driver.org ext2 support for windows.
[02:31] <MetaMorfoziS> i don't think ihave 3.2gb installed app
[02:31] <apokryphos> MetaMorfoziS: have you installed on top many applications?
[02:31] <apokryphos> MetaMorfoziS: ok, then use a program to see where the disk usage is going
[02:31] <apokryphos> !diskfree
[02:31] <ubotu> Graphical representations of where your disk-space is being used are: baobab (GNOME), filelight / kinfocenter (Kubuntu). On the terminal: df -h -T

[02:32] <Hudson_H> gstef i have it hard to follow,but maybe u have something at this info,i started gparted again,and i see an ! after those 2 troubled ntfs partitions when i ask information,it says it cant read the content of the filesystem

[02:33] <_ShoGo_> hi, anybody can help me? Im trying to make work my avertv 203 tv capture
[02:33] <apokryphos> MetaMorfoziS: so use one of the graphical front-ends to get a clearer picture of where it's going
[02:33] <apokryphos> MetaMorfoziS: I haven't used that GNOME app, but I've used filelight there and it gives a very nice representation of where your space is going.
[02:33] <apokryphos> !info filelight

[02:34] <MetaMorfoziS> okay i check
[02:35] <stefg> Hudson_H: the funny thing is that hda1 works, but the upper ones do not....
[02:35] <Hudson_H> stefg: its not funny,i can't loose the data
[02:36] <Dr4g> I'm using partition magic to make a partition for ubuntu..
[02:36] <Dr4g> What File system should i use
[02:36] <MollocH> Hi There
[02:36] <AJR1> skavenge: you around mate?
[02:36] <Dr4g> and do i need to make a seperate swap partition ?
[02:36] <stefg> funny == not easily explainable
[02:36] <azcazandco> hi everyone
[02:36] <Hudson_H> stefg: ok my bad
[02:36] <apokryphos> Dr4g: it's better to just use the ubuntu partition manager on the live session during installation
[02:36] <MollocH> has someone Experiences with Ubuntu in VMWare ?
[02:36] <apokryphos> Dr4g: like Slack, it uses ext3 though :P
[02:36] <orlowsks> Has anyone had or heard of hard lock ups with version 6? Nothing in the logs. Maybe video?
[02:36] <azcazandco> anyone know how i can install my ati radeon 9600pro under ubuntu?
[02:36] <apokryphos> actually, did slack use reiser?
[02:37] <azcazandco> I am pretty much a total newbie btw
[02:37] <Dr4g> ok i shall setup a small ext3 partition now..
[02:37] <AJR1> any ndiswrapper experts :P?
[02:37] <apokryphos> hm, it does indeed
[02:37] <stefg> Hmmm.... Hudson_H so dont put the partitons at risk then by trying to let gparted do something there
[02:37] <Dr4g> and i will format it upon installation apokryphos
[02:37] <Dr4g> UBUNTU DOWNLOADED :D
[02:37] <apokryphos> either way
[02:37] <installproblem> hey can some one tell me how to get th gui to start at bootup
[02:37] <apokryphos> =)
[02:37] <apokryphos> installproblem: it should by default. What goes wrong?
[02:38] <Hudson_H> stefg: its to late,and like i said one disk i cant acces,and i have done a thing at that disk
[02:38] <installproblem> nothing
[02:38] <installproblem> i guess
[02:38] <stefg> My advice would be to get a recovery Disk like Ultimate-Boot-CD or something and do a backup first of everything
[02:38] <apokryphos> installproblem: straight to a tty?
[02:38] <installproblem> yup
[02:38] <apokryphos> installproblem: what happens if you sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart?
[02:38] <installproblem> ?!
[02:38] <installproblem> i dont know bro im completly new to ubuntu
[02:38] <installproblem> i have type that in yet
[02:38] <installproblem> should i
[02:39] <KenSentMe> installproblem: yes
[02:39] <Hudson_H> stefg: how can i backup if i can't acces it
[02:39] <apokryphos> installproblem: give it a shot, yes.
[02:39] <installproblem> let me write that down
[02:39] <apokryphos> Hudson_H: did you mention what happened when you ls /mnt?
[02:39] <_ShoGo_> please, anybody can help me? my avertv 203 tv capturer doesn't work
[02:40] <stefg> Hudson_H: raw imaging... but not from a system running off hd... get a recovery CD and run from there
[02:40] <Hudson_H> apokryphos:  nothing
[02:40] <apokryphos> Hudson_H: sudo ls /mnt ?
[02:40] <Hudson_H> yep
[02:40] <Hudson_H> apokryphos: yes
[02:40] <apokryphos> Hudson_H: and it's definitely mounted?
[02:40] <installproblem> ok just need some basic i guess
[02:40] <Hudson_H> apokryphos: it start a new line with no error
[02:41] <installproblem> how those ubuntu differ from other distro out their
[02:41] <apokryphos> Hudson_H: what's the output of cat /etc/mtab|grep mnt ?
[02:41] <KenSentMe> installproblem: did you install the ubuntu-desktop cd?
[02:41] <MollocH> Anyone experiences with Ubuntu and VMWare ?
[02:41] <t-thing_> Hi. For some reason, usb connected canon digital camera doesn't work with dapper. There's no /dev/sda1. I've used same port with external keyboard and it works. lsusb shows the camera. Where's the problem?
[02:41] <apokryphos> installproblem: see ubuntu.com
[02:42] <installproblem> i did im reading the hand book right now
[02:42] <Dr4g> apokryphos::
[02:42] <Dr4g> ubuntu-6.06-alternate-i386.iso is the right filename ?
[02:42] <apokryphos> installproblem: are you asking what are its strengths?
[02:42] <Dr4g> for standard x86 ubuntu ?
[02:42] <apokryphos> Dr4g: standard Ubuntu installation is done with the desktop CD
[02:42] <installproblem> yea
[02:42] <apokryphos> Dr4g: desktop is a live+install CD.  You might want to use a mirror closer to you, if you're not in the UK.
[02:45] <Dr4g> I am in the UK :o)
[02:45] <apokryphos> MetaMorfoziS: if you use filelight, you can easily descent into a directory (like /usr) and etc
[02:45] <apokryphos> Dr4g: that's your one, then =)
[02:45] <MetaMorfoziS> yes
[02:45] <Dr4g> Indeed :O)
[02:45] <Dr4g> Thanks for the help.. ;o)
[02:45] <Dr4g> I plan on setting up PHP/mySQL and Apache server on ubuntu
[02:45] <apokryphos> s/descent/descend/
[02:45] <stelki> Hey, where do I change wtuff like how fast my mouse scroll is?
[02:46] <stelki> actually, its just that
[02:46] <apokryphos> Dr4g: cool, just /msg ubotu lamp (in here) once you've got ubuntu running
[02:46] <installproblem> thnx for you help bro
[02:46] <Dr4g> linux, apache mysql, php :D
[02:46] <Dr4g> GAMP is the gentoo version lol
[02:46] <Dr4g> and WAMP = windows version
[02:47] <apokryphos> 8)
[02:47] <Dr4g> How about UAMP for ubuntu :O)
[02:47] <apokryphos> =)
[02:48] <MetaMorfoziS> hmm i need to short my /home i seem:)
[02:48] <KenSentMe> !lamp > Dr4g
[02:48] <Dr4g> :oP
[02:52] <MetaMorfoziS> last question, can du lists only the dir sizes? without the contained fiels?
[02:53] <Fatal`> awwww, i thought it was finally stable and then it just freezes on me
[02:53] <Fatal`> :(
[02:53] <Fatal`> different type of freeze than before
[02:53] <Fatal`> the mouse could still move, but the system was unrespnsive
[02:53] <Fatal`> the music that was playing continued
[02:54] <monomaniacpat> openGL dev packages - where can I find them?
[02:54] <mwe> Fatal`: check the log files /var/log/syslog etc
[02:55] <mwe> MetaMorfoziS: a dir almost doesn't take up any space in itself
[02:56] <Inazad> Salut all, comment on fait pour crer une image d'un CD/DVD ?
[02:56] <monomaniacpat> !#ubuntu-fr
[02:56] <ubotu> I know nothing about #ubuntu-fr
[02:56] <monomaniacpat> !ubuntu-fr
[02:56] <ubotu> I know nothing about ubuntu-fr
[02:56] <Fatal`> does this mean anything?
[02:56] <Lynoure> !fr
[02:56] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.

[02:57] <trygg> Do xgl work with an ati radeon 9000?
[02:57] <Toma-> Fatal`: sure doesd
[02:57] <Toma-> -d
[02:57] <mwe> yggdrasil: sudo hdparm /dev/hda or whatever the drive is
[02:57] <Matrikz> how do i install a c compiler
[02:57] <Matrikz> ?
[02:57] <Toma-> Fatal`: anything important? no.
[02:57] <Matrikz> or what is a good one to install?
[02:57] <mwe> sudo aptitude install build-essential
[02:57] <Fatal`> :/
[02:57] <Lynoure> Fatal`: it looks like it means "congrats, your logs got rotated"
[02:57] <mwe> Matrikz: ^^
[02:57] <yggdrasil> ahh i was just doing hda
[02:58] <MetaMorfoziS> mwe: yes i know, i thinked, only the dir size (with containing files) but without printing that (the file sizes)
[02:58] <Matrikz> trying to configure gaim beta3
[02:58] <Matrikz> and there is no c compiler to do it
[02:58] <mwe> MetaMorfoziS: du -hs
[02:59] <Dribbel> Stupid GLX. It stil doesn't work. X keeps complaning about: (EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not found) any ideas (using nv driver, since nvidia driver locks up the systems. The live CD runs smoothly on the other hand, but i haven't found any differences between the config files)
[02:59] <yggdrasil> hmm and how do i tweak my drive then ? i was doing audio recording and it was messing up so i figured i could do this to make it a little zippier
[02:59] <MetaMorfoziS> it isn't print's the dirnames:)
[02:59] <MetaMorfoziS> only the full size
[02:59] <MetaMorfoziS> so i have /home i need to it prints .kde is xmb . foo is xy mb ...
[02:59] <mwe> Matrikz: why don't you get the .deb instead?
[03:00] <MetaMorfoziS> but in the normal way it prints .kde is x mb and after that it printss all of the files .kde contains
[03:00] <MetaMorfoziS> :D
[03:01] <mwe> MetaMorfoziS: play with du --max-depth maybe
[03:01] <MetaMorfoziS> OKAY, THX:)
[03:01] <MetaMorfoziS> sry
[03:01] <mwe> MetaMorfoziS: --max-depth=1
[03:02] <Toma-> Is $1 the first command line variable in a bash script?
[03:02] <johannes__> hi
[03:02] <ideogram> I just installed gcc 4.0 and when I try to run it it fails with /usr/bin/ld: crt1.o: No such file: No such file or directory
[03:02] <MetaMorfoziS> it excepts the size counting? or only printing?
[03:02] <reiki> I'll be assembling a new machine soon. Completely different processor, video card, etc. Only reusing hard drive and optical. Will I be better off just doing a complete reinstall of Ubuntu?
[03:02] <mwe> Toma-: yes
[03:02] <Frogzoo> ideogram: install 'build-essential'
[03:02] <ideogram> ok thanks
[03:02] <Toma-> mwe: thanks :)
[03:02] <MetaMorfoziS> hm no, it works!
[03:02] <MetaMorfoziS> thx
[03:02] <MetaMorfoziS> :)
[03:02] <mwe> Toma-: $0 is the script name
[03:02] <Toma-> oic
[03:02] <bobp> has anyone had issues with dapper slowing down after a few weeks on their laptop?
[03:02] <mwe> Toma-: $@ is all of them
[03:02] <Toma-> $2 is 2nd variable?
[03:03] <mwe> Toma-: you got the point :)

[03:05] <mwe> Toma-: yes
[03:05] <Toma-> mwe: its a standard avi file
[03:05] <Toma-> with pcm audio
[03:05] <mwe> I see
[03:05] <debian_> is there a way to search for packages, either through apt on the command line or synaptic, based on repository only? like returning all the packages from the main repo, or universe, or multiverse, etc
[03:06] <Toma-> generally, 177x148 or something with 48kb/s video and 8kb/s audio
[03:06] <Toma-> really, quite horrendous.
[03:06] <Jack_Sparrow> My Apologies to all for last night.    Mom has been in intensive care since Friday and I was not in the mood to listen to him.  I ignored him after one response.  Again, my apologies to anyone I may have offended
[03:06] <mwe> well good enough for my phone :)
[03:06] <Toma-> mwe: its watchable :)
[03:07] <CrazyDoode> has anyone tried those usb ide drive chassis with ubuntu? do they just plug and play like a normal removable usb device?
[03:07] <mwe> yeah. on my nokia 6280 it's actually all right I think
[03:07] <Toma-> CrazyDoode: yep, you just set bios to boot from USB and way you go
[03:07] <mwe> on the sony ericson k700i it was terrible
[03:07] <CrazyDoode> mmm..

[03:08] <apokryphos> stelki: does ctrl+tab work?
[03:08] <MetaMorfoziS> isthere a good app that finds duplicated files on the hd?
[03:08] <AJR1> why does "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" not fire up my usb adapter, it worked yesterday before i rebooted?
[03:08] <MetaMorfoziS> ^^ detto
[03:08] <MetaMorfoziS> :)
[03:08] <Toma-> stelki: ctl-left and right
[03:08] <mwe> stelki: I don't know if there is by default but I think you can define one
[03:08] <jojoman02> stelki: yes, <ctrl><alt> right/left
[03:08] <AJR1> why does "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" not fire up my usb adapter, it worked yesterday before i rebooted?
[03:08] <CrazyDoode> stelki: ctrl alt f<n>
[03:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Ste hover over the bar and use the wheel
[03:08] <mwe> huh
[03:08] <apokryphos> MetaMorfoziS: duplicates in the same place can't exist on a linux filesystem
[03:08] <Jack_Sparrow> or as above
[03:08] <stelki> Ah, thanks alot to everybody who answered, hehe, ctrl alt worked
[03:08] <MetaMorfoziS> same place not...
[03:08] <mwe> ctrl-alt-fX will switch to the vt
[03:08] <MetaMorfoziS> but other place?
[03:09] <MetaMorfoziS> and i need it for old win files and all drives...

[03:09] <CrazyDoode> mwe: heh, that's what i thought he was askin
[03:09] <jojoman02> stelki: you can also hold shift (with those keys) to drag a selected app with you around
[03:09] <Jack_Sparrow> So many ways to do everything..
[03:09] <mwe> stelki: you can bind a key to toggle full screen
[03:09] <stelki> But thanks, makes my life easier :p
[03:10] <jhares> hello, please i have only utf8 in locale -a; how can i export iso-8859-2??
[03:10] <stelki> jojoman02: hah, thats neat

[03:11] <mwe> AJR1: did you update the kernel maybe?
[03:11] <AJR1> macsim
[03:11] <AJR1> mwe: erm i dont think i do no, but it worked fine yesterday dont understand how a reboot can stop it from working
[03:12] <mwe> AJR1: it could if the kernel updated and not the module
[03:12] <AJR1> mwe: any ideas how i fix?
[03:12] <stelki> jojoman02: alright, will go look that up :D
[03:12] <mwe> AJR1: yes tell me what errors you get when you try modprobe ndiswrapper and also pastebin dmesg|tail -n 20 after that
[03:13] <Toma-> gosh i love bash.
[03:13] <mwe> AJR1: post the name of your interface with it
[03:13] <AJR1> mwe: ok give me two moments
[03:13] <AJR1> mwe: "modprobe ndiswrapper" doesnt give any errors
[03:14] <mwe> AJR1: well sudo modprobe. silence is a good sign though
[03:14] <AJR1> mwe: again silence
[03:14] <mwe> AJR1: it means it should have worked
[03:14] <AJR1> mwe: no light on usb like was yesterday

[03:16] <erUSUL> !ntfs > Noeve
[03:16] <Noeve> Thanks erUSUL.
[03:16] <mwe> AJR1: I can't help you then
[03:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Noeve is that ntfs or fat32?
[03:16] <jojoman02> boga: that is not dapper, it probably the flash plugin (it happens on youtube with me)
[03:16] <nofx_br> ok...gonna do that.... i was thinkin tortoise.. just click and "make this folder a repository" .. tnx mwe
[03:16] <erUSUL> Noeve: no problem
[03:16] <AJR1> mwe: its cool m8 thx all same
[03:16] <mwe> AJR1: I can't help without logs
[03:16] <jojoman02> boga, you can thank macromedia for that
[03:16] <CrazyDoode> AJR1: have you tried to bring the device up manually   ifconfig <dev> up
[03:17] <nofx_br> jojoman02: now is Adobe.. = )
[03:17] <AJR1> CrazyDoode: no, i dont know how to
[03:17] <mwe> AJR1: look at the output of dmesg to see if you understand it and if it suggests something
[03:17] <jojoman02> nofx_br: yeah, i was just bout to say
[03:17] <CrazyDoode> type ifconfing to see if the device is listed
[03:17] <boga> jojoman02: so you are living with this problem? Does it have any solutions?
[03:17] <nofx_br> player 9 in december for linux.. .they said
[03:17] <AJR1> CrazyDoode: says eth0 and lo
[03:18] <finalbeta> Any of you use this? How stable is it? http://www.fs-driver.org ext2 support for windows.
[03:18] <AJR1> CrazyDoode: as its wifi i would be expecting to see wlan0?
[03:18] <DK-> hi there
[03:18] <jojoman02> boga, adobe is set to release a new beta 9 of their flash software soon (i'm hoping) within possibly like a month or two
[03:18] <CrazyDoode> AJR1: the device is not installed properly.  yes, in ubuntu eth1 usually
[03:18] <Frogzoo> quick question - is it possible to power down a laptop's internal usb hub?
[03:18] <boga> jojoman02: OK
[03:18] <AJR1> CrazyDoode: ok so im completely stuck because it seems to be installed properly
[03:18] <blaamann> How do I (re)start subversion, it is down on my server, and I can't figure out how to start it again ?
[03:19] <CrazyDoode> AJR1: what kind of hardware do you have?
[03:19] <AJR1> CrazyDoode: says drivers and harware present
[03:19] <mwe> AJR1: you need to look at dmesg like I suggested
[03:19] <AJR1> CrazyDoode: its a NetG WG3111T
[03:19] <AJR1> CrazyDoode: usb wifi thing
[03:19] <mwe> AJR1: you need to look at dmesg like I suggested
[03:20] <AJR1> mwe: checked dont understand it, just looks like well non sensical
[03:20] <mwe> AJR1: nothing about ndis?
[03:20] <CrazyDoode> why did you go to ndiswrapper? did you blacklist the default driver?
[03:20] <AJR1> CrazyDoode: no i just read that was the only way to get your wireless to work with a windows driveR?
[03:20] <mwe> AJR1: modprobe -r ndiswrapper then modprobe ndiswrapper and then dmesg again
[03:21] <snoops> jojoman02 didn't adobe say next year for flash 9 for linux
[03:21] <mwe> AJR1: doesn't it say anything about ndiswrapper?
[03:21] <jojoman02> snoops: i just read the other day ppl were comainping no linux release they said BETA will be this summer...
[03:22] <AJR1> mwe: yeah it has a few lines about ndiswrapper
[03:22] <jojoman02> snoops: beta being the key word...
[03:22] <finalbeta> Why doesn't gedit remove the ~ filess when you close it? it's making a mess.
[03:22] <mwe> AJR1: what do they say?
[03:22] <thomaswebb> hi, when a ./configure tells you to  set the environment variables GNOME_OSD_CFLAGS and GNOME_OSD_LIBS, what does this mean?
[03:22] <mwe> AJR1: errors or what?
[03:22] <mwe> AJR1: an interface name?
[03:22] <AJR1> mwe: ndiswrapper version 1.8 loaded preempt = yes smp = no | ndiswrapper driver athfmwdl loaded | ndiswrapper rtlqueryregistervalues unimplemented (3 lines of that) | usbcore: registered new driver ndiswarpper
[03:22] <snoops> ah right jojoman02.. yeah the internet can really complain when it wants to these days
[03:23] <mwe> AJR1: nothing about the interface name?
[03:23] <AJR1> mwe: not that i can see
[03:23] <mwe> AJR1: what about sudo ifconfig -a ?
[03:23] <Toma-> thomaswebb: "export GNOME_OSD_CFLAGS=/what/ever/you/need && export GNOME_OSD_LIBS /whatever/else/it/is && ./configure
[03:23] <Toma-> "
[03:24] <mwe> AJR1: does it show the name?
[03:24] <AJR1> mwe: eth0 sit0 and lo
[03:24] <mwe> AJR1: it seems to load all right
[03:24] <AJR1> mwe: no interface name there as far as i can see on dmesg
[03:24] <AJR1> mwe: i know according to everything its loaded fine
[03:24] <mwe> AJR1: hmm. what was the name when it worked?
[03:24] <AJR1> mwe: just wont work for some reason, worked perfect yesterday and nothings changed
[03:24] <AJR1> mwe: i didnt check the interface stuff, i assumed it was configd and would work correctly after reboot
[03:25] <thomaswebb> ah. not quite sure /what/ever/you/need is meant to be? it is complaining that no python gtk 2.0 package is found, yet it is installed
[03:25] <nofx_br> why VLC isn't a default player in linux distros? the players that came can't play shit...
[03:25] <mwe> AJR1: odd. is it plugged in right and all that? working in windows maybe?
[03:26] <foxiness> i want a good download manager on gnome
[03:26] <AJR1> mwe: yeah plugged in fine, i unplugged it and plugged it back in again before and ubu crashed
[03:26] <thomaswebb> it says "you may set them to avoid the need to call pkg-config"
[03:26] <mwe> AJR1: dmesg should say hardware present
[03:26] <mwe> AJR1: odd. was it plugged when you booted?
[03:26] <AJR1> mwe: yeah plugged in on boot
[03:26] <AJR1> mwe: this might be of interest too you about that dmesg
[03:26] <lingo> How and where do I request that certain packages be moved from "universe" to "main"?
[03:27] <thomaswebb> any help is much appreciated Toma...
[03:27] <mwe> AJR1: make sure you're using the windows driver suggested for the card on the list on ndiswrapper.sf.net
[03:27] <AJR1> mwe: i ma
[03:27] <AJR1> mwe: i am*
[03:27] <mwe> hmm
[03:27] <mwe> it bothers me it doesn't light up or anything
[03:27] <Toma-> thomaswebb: use my name when speaking to me or any other helper, as most clients have a little thing that alerts me when you say my name...
[03:28] <AJR1> mwe: dmesg says > "ndiswrapper iowmiregistrationcontrol 1003" "ndiswrapper dree_all_objects332 object f7887dc type 4 was not freed, freeing it now"
[03:28] <Toma-> thomaswebb: you need the -dev packages of gtk+
[03:28] <Toma-> thomaswebb: what are you building?
[03:28] <thomaswebb> gnome osd
[03:28] <CrazyDoode> AJR1: what does ndiswrapper -l  give you?
[03:28] <thomaswebb> problem is toma that i get an error when i try to install the -dev
[03:28] <Toma-> whats the error?
[03:28] <AJR1> mwe: athfmwdl driver rpesent, hardware present | netwg11t driver present
[03:28] <boga> foxiness: Hane a look at D4X
[03:29] <mwe> AJR1: ok
[03:29] <mwe> AJR1: hmm
[03:29] <AJR1> mwe: before i typed sudo modprobe ndiswrapper (yesterday) and it just started flashing and worked
[03:29] <lingo> Who do I talk to to get Kile and KDVI moved into the main section?
[03:29] <mwe> AJR1: why do you have two drivers installed?
[03:29] <AJR1> mwe: try that today and nothing happens
[03:29] <Jack_Sparrow> thomaswebb: Most clients will auto complete the username by hitting the TAB key
[03:29] <mwe> AJR1: why do you have two drivers installed?
[03:29] <AJR1> mwe: i ned the ath and netwg11t drivers
[03:29] <thomaswebb> toma: libgtk2.0-dev but it is not going to be installed
[03:30] <mwe> AJR1: you don't need two drivers for it
[03:30] <AJR1> mwe: skavenge said i needed both he talked me through this yesterday
[03:30] <Toma-> thomaswebb: weird. have you got universe and multiverse enabled?
[03:30] <AJR1> skavenge: you about m8?
[03:30] <spacefinn> join #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:30] <spacefinn> oops
[03:30] <mwe> AJR1: really. that sounds weird
[03:30] <AJR1> mwe: dont think he is around maybe AFK
[03:30] <AJR1> mwe: yeah he checked somewhere and told me what to copy from the cd
[03:30] <spacefinn> clearly it is too early for me to be on IRC :)
[03:31] <thomaswebb> Toma-: yes both, i try to install only libgtk2.0-dev and i get two more of those errors: libxfixes-dev but it is not going to be installed and libxcursor-dev but it is not going to be installed
[03:31] <lingo> spacefinn: use /join
[03:31] <spacefinn> oh, I know
[03:31] <spacefinn> xchat just ate my /
[03:31] <Toma-> thomaswebb: sounds liek your sources.list is hosed
[03:32] <foxiness> boga, am using now this app but it not work anymore! xchat,ff but d4x not work "sever return bad answer:((" am using internet with wlan eth1+firestarter
[03:32] <thomaswebb> Toma-: basically, i trace it back to not being able to install libxfixes-dev
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Toma-: What folder is the sources list in?
[03:32] <thomaswebb> Toma-: could you take a look at my sources.list?
[03:32] <AJR1> mwe: what does "modprobe config already contains alias directive" mean? shall i try and edit this modprobe config
[03:32] <Toma-> thomaswebb: sure. put it up on pastebin
[03:32] <lingo> thomaswebb: What happens trying to install libxfixes-dev
[03:32] <Toma-> Jack_Sparrow: /etc/apt/
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> thanks
[03:33] <thomaswebb> Toma-: what's the address for pastebin again
[03:33] <boga> foxiness: D4x is the best one avaolable in my opinion.
[03:33] <lingo> pastebin.com
[03:33] <Toma-> !pastebin
[03:33] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[03:33] <Toma-> ok, im VERY cross at gnome-bluetooth. someone fix it damnit
[03:34] <mwe> AJR1: where is that coming from?
[03:34] <vijay> hi all, i bought a new hard disk(250Gb).., is it possible to copy my previous ubuntu and xp as it is from my old(80Gb) hdd to this one?
[03:35] <thomaswebb> Toma-: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17090 , thnaks for your help :)
[03:35] <stefg> vijay: define 'copy'
[03:35] <foxiness> boga, i have this d4x with tango theme and i like it,but i can not get it download anything from yesterday
[03:36] <vijay> stefg: should i type that in my terminal??
[03:36] <boga> foxiness: Are you sure it's the fault of the software?
[03:36] <foxiness> boga, it stop after 35% of 600mb iso file and i cannot get ruby cast
[03:36] <Toma-> thomaswebb: thats all fine...
[03:36] <foxiness> boga, no
[03:36] <stefg> no... you should make clear, what you want to do
[03:37] <thomaswebb> Toma-: it is really strange, i will just paste the libxfixes-dev error for you to see
[03:37] <markc> anyone know when edgy might be synced to Debian etch ?
[03:37] <Toma-> ok
[03:37] <boga> but you could resume the download...By the way, do you have enough disk space?
[03:37] <aunes> how can I bind key X to an action? ie: open a terminal window
[03:37] <Noeve> I still can't write to my NTFS, does anyone have a way out ?
[03:37] <foxiness> boga, yes more than 5GB
[03:37] <thomaswebb> Toma-: Depends: libxfixes3 (=1:<IP_ADDRESS>-0ubuntu3) but 1:4.0-0ubuntu1 is to be installed
[03:38] <mwe> aunes: in keyboard shorcuts from the menu
[03:38] <thomaswebb> so it is like it is looking for a version that is out of date?
[03:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Noeve: Some feel writing to NTFS is still not ready to use.  BE sure to have a good backup
[03:38] <aunes> thx
[03:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Noeve: Do yo still want to do it, I would rather you set up fat32 for sharing files between XP and Ub
[03:39] <Barkley> anyone have a script that compresses a windows partition? can someone paste their tar line? i'm curious how people do it (using SYSV syntax or not) and if there's a standard list of excludes that works well when dealing with windows shares
[03:39] <stefg> ntfs writing has still an 'experimemtal'-label sticking on it
[03:39] <Noeve> Jack_Sparrow, I can manage that myself, I just would prefer being able to write to Windows. I guess it isn't essential right now though, thanks :)
[03:39] <Barkley> really?
[03:39] <foxiness> boga, i think the firewall block this app "firestarter"
[03:39] <Toma-> thomaswebb: the REAL: dapper version is "1:<IP_ADDRESS>-0ubuntu3" looks like one of your extra repos has something fishy going on
[03:39] <finalbeta> Can xen run windows now? they said it would in the 3 branch, but now we have a 3 branch, and they don't mention the word even.
[03:39] <boga> foxiness: then disabl it for a while.
[03:40] <thomaswebb> Toma-: :O, how do i fix it?
[03:40] <mxpxpod> why doesn't bonobo-slay work?  I just got an error from evolution that told me to run bonobo-slay and nothing happens
[03:40] <Toma-> thomaswebb: open up synaptic and uncheck your extra repos in the repo editor and reload, then try installing
[03:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Noeve:  The script Diskmounter will set your partitions to automount and offer to let you write to NTFS after a stern warning..  http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter
[03:41] <unity> DLS-base Wavetable music synthesizer <-- hello, does anyone know if that feature means my sound card can hardware synthesize midi?
[03:41] <stefg> ask #hardware
[03:42] <Noeve> Jack_Sparrow,  yep, I'd already seen that, thanks.
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> k
[03:42] <Noeve> I'll try it out sometime.
[03:42] <unity> thanks stefg

[03:44] <CblickVA> ill give wit a shot thanks
[03:44] <Jack_Sparrow> CblickVA: You installed all the MM stuff correct ?
[03:45] <CblickVA> yea, sometimes I get no demuxer errors, sometimes it connects and I just cant hear anything
[03:45] <johnnyX> can someone tell me how to change the settings so i dont have to type in a password everytime i close my laptop
[03:45] <johnnyX> i'm on breezy
[03:45] <orgonix> hello
[03:45] <mwe> johnnyX: you mean you don't want it to lock when you close the lid?
[03:46] <johnnyX> yea mwe
[03:46] <mwe> johnnyX: what do you want it to do if anything?
[03:46] <johnnyX> just come back on
[03:46] <stefg> !codecs > Noeve
[03:47] <johnnyX> i dont really need any security like that on it since im the only one who uses it
[03:47] <johnnyX> and it gets in the way
[03:47] <johnnyX> because i'm on the move alot
[03:47] <Applemacmad> hello, can someone help me with something please?
[03:47] <johnnyX> do you know how to change it mwe ?
[03:47] <vijay> hi all, i bought a new hard disk(250Gb).., is it possible to copy my previous ubuntu and xp as it is from my old(80Gb) hdd to this one?
[03:48] <johnnyX> does anyone know?
[03:48] <mwe> johnnyX: if you wanna ignore it all together put the event name into /etc/acpi/events.ignore
[03:48] <thomaswebb> Toma-: still get same error
[03:48] <Applemacmad> i have downloaded the ppc 6.06 iso, and it is 701.5mb - and my CDs are 700mb, how can I remove files i don't need?
[03:48] <johnnyX> whats the event name?
[03:48] <Toma-> thomaswebb: well thats weird.
[03:49] <CblickVA> vlc is able to start the stream but I still cant hear anything. My sound does work. Maybe a codec issue or something?
[03:49] <mwe> johnnyX: button[ /] lid I think
[03:49] <thomaswebb> i have no idea what to do other than a fresh install of ubuntu
[03:49] <johnnyX> thats all i type?
[03:49] <Applemacmad> how can i remove files i don't need from an iso??
[03:49] <johnnyX> i'm new to this
[03:49] <Applemacmad> like ppc64
[03:49] <Toma-> thomaswebb: how about a pre-compiled gnome-osd?
[03:49] <mwe> johnnyX: yeah. put that at the end of events.ignore
[03:50] <johnnyX> and if there is no events.ignore do i need to make one or is it another file?
[03:50] <thomaswebb> it is not just that package, there are others that rely on libgtk2.0-dev which i cannot install
[03:50] <Toma-> thomaswebb: try another repo
[03:50] <stefg> vijay: yes and no
[03:50] <johnnyX> so the only thing is button[ /] lid ?
[03:50] <thomaswebb> a ubuntu reinstall would not be too bad, only installed it yesterday so i have nothing valuable on here
[03:51] <Toma-> thomaswebb: go back to source-o-matic and get another sources.list made up and see if that works
[03:51] <thomaswebb> Toma-: which repo?
[03:51] <Tobler> is anyone familiar with the problem when your router refuses to communicate with your ubuntu installation?
[03:51] <mwe> johnnyX: that's the acpi event for the lid
[03:51] <Toma-> thomaswebb: any other. the main one will be best
[03:51] <vijay> stefg:how is there any gnu tool for it?
[03:51] <Barkley> is bz2 the best compression?
[03:51] <mwe> johnnyX: if you make it ignore it nothing should happen
[03:51] <Barkley> size matters here
[03:51] <stefg> ! info partimage
[03:51] <stefg> !info partimage
[03:51] <ubotu> partimage: backup partitions into a compressed image file. In repository universe, is optional. Version 0.6.4-14 (dapper), package size 261 kB, installed size 936 kB
[03:51] <johnnyX> so thats all i need?
[03:51] <mwe> johnnyX: right
[03:52] <mwe> johnnyX: should be
[03:52] <johnnyX> it wont let me save the file
[03:52] <mwe> johnnyX: you need to open it with superuser perms
[03:52] <mwe> johnnyX: normal users can't tamper with system files in lunux
[03:52] <mwe> linux*
[03:52] <Toma-> thomaswebb: ive gotta go
[03:52] <thomaswebb> ok, i think i will just start from scratch
[03:52] <thomaswebb> thanks for help anyway :)
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> mwe: sorry to ask another stupid question but what folder has the "Events.ignore
[03:53] <maxx__> what is the best way to remove the root password on my debian box?
[03:53] <Toma-> thomaswebb: ok. try the sources.list, its probably going to fix it. bye
[03:53] <mwe> johnnyX: gksudo gedit /etc/acpi/events.ignore
[03:53] <johnnyX> here goes nothing
[03:53] <mwe> johnnyX: huh?
[03:53] <Applemacmad> how can i fit a 701.5mb iso on a 700mb CD??!!
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> maxx__: no root password for Ubuntu
[03:53] <mwe> johnnyX: gksudo gedit /etc/acpi/events.ignore gives you nothing?
[03:53] <wheelswitch> Applemacmad: it will fit
[03:53] <wheelswitch> just burn it
[03:53] <Applemacmad> ok, thanks
[03:53] <johnnyX> it still asks me for my password mwe
[03:54] <mwe> johnnyX: then type your password
[03:54] <maxx__> Jack_Sparrow, yes i know.. i want to get this same config on my debian box
[03:54] <johnnyX> now when i close the lid
[03:54] <johnnyX> no*
[03:54] <mwe> johnnyX: I don't understand did it work or not?
[03:54] <Tobler> my router doesn't want my ubuntu installation to connect to it =/
[03:54] <johnnyX> no
[03:54] <johnnyX> it still asks for my password
[03:54] <maxx__> Jack_Sparrow, i thought of editing /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow... but surely there is a better way?
[03:54] <mwe> johnnyX: hmm
[03:54] <ltibor65> Hi! Guys! In which file is the $PATH given?
[03:54] <mwe> johnnyX: paste.bu
[03:55] <johnnyX> ?
[03:55] <mwe> johnnyX: paste.ubuntu-nl.org the output of tail -n20 /var/log/acpid
[03:55] <jojoman02> i get a segfault when starting gdmsetup (where is the config for this prog?)
[03:55] <johnnyX> should i put it into /etc/acpi/events?
[03:55] <mwe> johnnyX: just after closing the lid
[03:55] <mwe> johnnyX: no
[03:55] <mwe> johnnyX: paste.ubuntu-nl.org the output of tail -n20 /var/log/acpid
[03:55] <mwe> johnnyX: please
[03:56] <johnnyX> what does that mean?
[03:56] <erUSUL> ltibor65: given? you can set your path in ~/.bashrc (PATH=/some/dir:$PATH)
[03:56] <n0dl> is there a new name for the package for the mp3 encoder lame?
[03:56] <mwe> johnnyX: it means go to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org and paste the output of the command 'tail -n20 /var/log/acpid'
[03:56] <mwe> johnnyX: then paste the url here
[03:57] <lancel00t> i am new to ubuntu and i have a few questions about the distro
[03:57] <ltibor65> erUSUL, can I set there also PYTHONPATH?
[03:57] <jramsey> lancel00t, just ask
[03:57] <erUSUL> ltibor65: yes, whay not?
[03:57] <erUSUL> why*
[03:57] <maria> does anyone know if i have to uninstall skype to install the new beta version, or can i just install the new deb package to update the old version of skype, im asking this because i dont want to lose my contact list
[03:57] <Alexiel> *don't
[03:57] <BWF89TAA> im not on Linux right now, can anyone check if the irc client "jIRCii" is in the Ubuntu repositories
[03:57] <Alexiel> *I'm (unless you mean IM.)
[03:57] <lancel00t> does it support jdk1.5 and what is the package management system like.
[03:57] <maxx__> nobody knows the command to remove root pass?
[03:58] <jramsey> lancel00t, pkt mgmt is standard debian dpkg/apt and yes it supports jdk1.5
[03:58] <mwe> maxx__: passwd -d root
[03:58] <Ng> BWF89TAA: there's ircii, but I don't see a jircii
[03:58] <maxx__> mwe... sweet thanks buddy i'll try it out
[03:58] <lancel00t> jramsey: how do you upgrade between releases or is that not possible?
[03:58] <BWF89TAA> thanks
[03:58] <atlantian> hello
[03:58] <erUSUL> maria: i do not use Skype but if it is a sane app it will keep your data through updates (probably in a folder in your hame dir ~/.skype)
[03:58] <johnnyX> mwe, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17093
[03:58] <maria> erUSUL, thanks
[03:59] <jramsey> lancel00t, between releases of what? jdk or ubuntu?
[03:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Not on repos
[03:59] <lancel00t> ubnutu
[03:59] <lancel00t> ubuntu*
[03:59] <atlantian> does apt-get have a list of software available? as in i would like to know if RARLINUX was included as i cannot install the tar.gz make install doesnt do anything
[03:59] <Alexiel> *doesn't
[03:59] <jramsey> lancel00t, not sure what u mean; do u have breezy or dapper ubuntu?
[03:59] <apokryphos> lancel00t: possible and very easy. See the FAQ.
[03:59] <Ng> atlantian: synaptic can show you a list, or you can do "apt-cache search rar" (rar is in multiverse)
[03:59] <mwe> johnnyX: oh. try 'sudo /etc/acpid restart' then see if it works if not tell me
[04:00] <mwe> johnnyX: sorry
[04:00] <jrib> atlantian: do you just want to open rar files?
[04:00] <mwe> johnnyX: sudo /etc/init.d/acpid restart
[04:00] <mwe> johnnyX: not /etc/acpid
[04:00] <atlantian> yeh
[04:00] <johnnyX> didnt work
[04:00] <Alexiel> *didn't
[04:01] <Boglizk> is there any text editor which can replace with wildcards? (eg. replace .jpgblah with .jpeg)
[04:01] <jrib> !rar > atlantian
[04:01] <johnnyX> is there a file on how to do this?
[04:01] <jrib> Boglizk: vim
[04:01] <Ng> Boglizk: all of them ;)
[04:01] <erUSUL> Boglizk: sed ;)
[04:01] <atlantian> thanks
[04:01] <Boglizk> i dunno how to do it..
[04:01] <maxx__> mwe... do u by any chance also know how to disable root login... i wouldn't ask but otherwise i have a slight security problem ;-)
[04:01] <Jack_Sparrow> atlantian: Unrar-free is in the repos
[04:01] <atlantian> Man this same IP address keeps port scanning me every day its doing my head in
[04:01] <Boglizk> i try *, but it doesn't find
[04:01] <jrib> Boglizk: maybe .* if it is using regex
[04:02] <nyxie> hello... there's a way to restart the sound?
[04:02] <buzzed> thoughts on a good torrent client?
[04:02] <J_P> hey all, I was compiling new kernel in my ubuntu, but I have this error : http://deadbeefbabe.org/paste/1002 . Any idea that what can be ?
[04:02] <mwe> maxx__: well sudo passwd -d root will
[04:02] <johnnyX> ktorrent works pretty well buzzed
[04:02] <Boglizk> i'll try that "vim", is it available in Synaptic?
[04:02] <jrib> Boglizk: vim is already installed :)
[04:02] <atlantian> everyone using bittorrent these days jesus
[04:02] <Boglizk> ah
[04:02] <erUSUL> buzzed: nowadays i'm triyng utorrent through wine.
[04:02] <maxx__> mwe, it doesnt seem to be... i'll reboot and see
[04:02] <apokryphos> atlantian: you say it as if it were a negative thing
[04:02] <Alexiel> *doesn't
[04:02] <jrib> Boglizk: to be honest though, it takes a bit to learn at first... you may want to run vimtutor first
[04:03] <mwe> johnnyX: is it working or what?
[04:03] <johnnyX> no
[04:03] <atlantian> not a fan of bittorrent or p2p as whole
[04:03] <atlantian> so yeah
[04:03] <ltibor65> erUSUL,  here is PATH in the /etc/environment set, and not in bashrc. Is this good?
[04:03] <Ng> atlantian: we're not interested in what you do or don't like ;)
[04:03] <buzzed> i am currently trying gnome-btorrent
[04:03] <atlantian> never said you was
[04:03] <atlantian> making conversation thats all
[04:03] <atlantian> ;)
[04:03] <Alexiel> *that's
[04:03] <apokryphos> atlantian: bittorrent is not only in theory (but in practice) used in MANY useful cases.
[04:03] <mwe> johnnyX: then just remove the action from action= in /etc/acpi/evenet/lidbtn
[04:04] <mwe> johnnyX: /etc/acpi/events/lidbtn that is
[04:04] <atlantian> legally its great yeah, for legal purposes, but so many dont use it for that
[04:04] <Alexiel> *don't
[04:04] <Ng> atlantian: my point is that this is a very busy channel and we don't have time/space for personal opinion, that's #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[04:04] <mwe> johnnyX: you probably mistyped what you put into events.ignore
[04:04] <apokryphos> atlantian: for Free/Open Software projects (like Ubuntu) it can lessen the strain of the servers quite significantly. And it can actually mean that a particular file is available on release date even if the servers are bogged down
[04:04] <Alexiel> *can't
[04:04] <erUSUL> ltibor65: if you want to modify the path to all the users you should do it in /etc/environment or /etc/skel/.bashrc but if you want to modify it only for you use your own .bashrc
[04:04] <johnnyX> this isnt going to f up my system will it?
[04:04] <Alexiel> *isn't
[04:04] <apokryphos> atlantian: many don't, many do.
[04:04] <buzzed> Gnome-btdownload actually
[04:05] <mphill> how so i configure the language from the command line?
[04:05] <atlantian> oh as a service for legal files its brilliant no doubt, but when i think of it i instantly only really think warez
[04:05] <maxx__> mwe, no joy it's accepting root with no password at the logon prompt... any suggestions?
[04:05] <erUSUL> mphill: you have to set your LC_* variables
[04:05] <johnnyX> did i need to put something else in /etc/acpi/events/lidbtn?
[04:05] <johnnyX> i commented out actions and its still not working
[04:05] <apokryphos> atlantian: the problem appears to be in your mind, then :)
[04:06] <mphill> erUSUL: can i edit a file?
[04:06] <mwe> maxx__: it is? after sudo passwd -d root?
[04:06] <atlantian> haha
[04:06] <atlantian> yeah
[04:06] <atlantian> indeed
[04:06] <mphill> erUSUL: i want to make it system wdie
[04:06] <johnny69> The default desktop for Ubuntu is Gmome,  correct?
[04:06] <maxx__> mwe.. yup
[04:06] <jrib> johnny69: yes
[04:06] <Jack_Sparrow> mwe: WOuld maybe editing the hibernate script work for that?
[04:06] <erUSUL> mphill: usually in you .bashrc or system wide /etc/environment
[04:07] <johnny69> jrib:   Ok...next question...how much of a disaster is it to get Kde installed instead?
[04:07] <ltibor65> erUSUL, very thanks.
[04:07] <mwe> maxx__: it's broken then. file a bug. however, sudo vim /etc/shadow and put bogus as the encrypted password will work
[04:07] <erUSUL> mphill: change the LANG variable
[04:07] <johnnyX> mwe, am i supposed to do anything else
[04:07] <johnnyX> because that didnt work
[04:07] <Alexiel> *didn't
[04:07] <Jack_Sparrow> johnny69:  Kubuntu has it already done for you
[04:07] <Deanodriver> i'm trying to set up compiz, and I keep on getting: compiz.real: No composite extension
[04:07] <mwe> johnnyX: what did you do?
[04:07] <Deanodriver> and i can't get it working properly
[04:07] <Absenth> is there an ubuntu repo similar to the debian non-free?
[04:07] <jrib> johnny69: you can a) just install Kubuntu instead of Ubuntu or b) install the kubuntu-desktop package after installing ubuntu, very easy
[04:07] <Deanodriver> does anyone know why it's coming up with that message?
[04:07] <apokryphos> johnny69: it's not a disaster at all, KDE is officially supported by Ubuntu.
[04:07] <Deanodriver> :)

[04:08] <atlantian> i tried that kmess today, i quite like it compared to GAIM
[04:08] <maxx__> mwe, i think it might be because i'm doing this on an xbox... the xbox-linux distro has a lot of bugs
[04:08] <mwe> johnnyX: what's in /etc/acpi/event.ignore?
[04:08] <johnny69> apokryphos:   you mean johnnyx??  (I didn't paste anything)   :)

[04:19] <dr_willis> Its fast for me. Could try disabling the ipv6 stuff and check the ubuntu wiki perhaps for other tips
[04:19] <Ng> !anyone
[04:19] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:19] <Ng> siriusnova: ^^ is what he was trying to tell you ;)
[04:19] <Killeroid> Ng: thanks
[04:19] <Ng> siriusnova: ie, ask your question and we'll see if anyone is expert enough to help :)
[04:19] <johnnyX> i dont see a power manager erUSUL
[04:19] <siriusnova> okay well i want to install madwifi drivers from source so i can patch them to support packet injection
[04:20] <Hudson_H> stefg: why does that mathers,he accesed it like a IDE and the HDG2 part works also
[04:20] <siriusnova> anyone know which version i should download, ie stable or madwifi-ng
[04:20] <mwe> siriusnova: madwifi-ng
[04:20] <Ng> siriusnova: why do you want to download it? ubuntu ships with madwifi drivers that should make many cards Just work
[04:20] <siriusnova> Ng - to support packet injection
[04:20] <siriusnova> you have to patch the drivers
[04:20] <gdb> siriusnova: If you're trying to make a tutorial on how to crack people's WEP routers, then I'd think you should know which wifi drivers to install in advance.
[04:20] <mwe> siriusnova: I think it's not really mature and it sucks bad with wpa so I use ndiswrapper instead. but go ahead and try
[04:21] <Geev8> dr_willis: my browser is very slow when i open any page but when i connect another computer with the some ip address it is fine what should be done to improve browsing speed
[04:21] <johnnyX> could it b e in another folder erUSUL ?
[04:21] <siriusnova> gdb - i do im just curious what dapper uses
[04:21] <stefg> Hudson_H: i think gparted got confused by the presence of the raid controllers...  paste you 'dmesg' output
[04:21] <gdb> siriusnova: Having to ask looks sort of newbish wwhen you're trying to be a l33t h4x0rz.
[04:21] <erUSUL> johnnyX: well it is there in my gconf-editor... (/apps/gnome-power-manager) try searching
[04:21] <dr_willis> Geev8,  try connecting by ip# - if thats fast - then you got some slowdown in the dns lookup.  Other then that. Not sure what else to tell ya other then to try differnet browsers.
[04:21] <siriusnova> gdb - ...

[04:29] <Geev8> erUSUL: is any configuration is need after i complete to install pdnsd name server
[04:29] <whyami> erUSUL: I just found the $USER variable too. Any reason to use one or the other?
[04:29] <J_P> erUSUL: not is more secure use kernel-source from ubuntu dapper ?

[04:31] <erUSUL> Geev8: take a look at /etc/pdnsd.conf and see if it looks sane (it should be server{} stanzas for your isp's nameservers)
[04:31] <tritium> wheelswitch: :)  If it's a laptop, and you want to hibernate, you'll want swap >= mem size

[04:39] <kristian> jramsey, a message came when I installed fglrx and fglrx control, something that I had to update restricted modules... and had to edit something..
[04:39] <wheels351972> Yeah Broadcomm
[04:39] <adamlinux> how to i create one tar.gz source one deb package?
[04:39] <jramsey> kristian, post the msg on the pastebin then paste the link here

[04:39] <wheels351972> Jack:  is there ANY distro that will work with a broadcomm
[04:39] <nofx_br> easiest way to put KDE here... ? gnome sux
[04:39] <skavenge> wheels351972: you cant use ndiswrapper? i thought the kernel module bcm43xx was just broken

[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Looks like it should work
[04:42] <jrib> tanlaan: python should be installed.  What exactly are you looking for?
[04:42] <LeeT91> hi
[04:42] <kristian> jramsey, that's not the message I got
[04:42] <erUSUL> tanlaan: which python library?
[04:43] <LeeT91> Hi, how do I change a removable drive's label in Ubuntu Linux?
[04:43] <jramsey> kristian, ok paste ur msg

[04:43] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[04:43] <kristian> The updater showed me a message, I don't know how to find it now, but something I had to install/update and edit...
[04:43] <dr_willis> LeeT91,  whats the file system?
[04:43] <LeeT91> FAT32
[04:43] <nofx_br> wow..200mb kde... sit and wait.. he he... and about Xgl, E, what you guys think ? E17..cool on ubuntu?
[04:43] <jramsey> kristian, do u still have the msg?
[04:43] <dr_willis> LeeT91,  use the mtools perhaps.
[04:43] <LeeT91> it's an external 250GB HDD
[04:44] <LeeT91> How do I get to mtools?
[04:44] <kristian> jramsey, no sorry...
[04:44] <dr_willis> !info mtools
[04:44] <ubotu> mtools: Tools for manipulating MSDOS files. In repository main, is optional. Version 3.9.9-2.1ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 191 kB, installed size 468 kB
[04:44] <tanlaan> well im trying to install "nakedmud", and while trying to "make" it it came up with errors, and the start file *one giving directions on how to use it* told me to change another file
[04:44] <tanlaan> in that file it told me to change part of a variable to the directory of the python library
[04:44] <dr_willis> LeeT91,  or pop it on a windows machine and relabel it.. i dident think a fat32 drive could be 250gb large
[04:44] <LeeT91> Neither did I
[04:44] <jramsey> kristian, ok say again what u can recall the msg was
[04:44] <LeeT91> I thought it was 32Gb Max?
[04:45] <dr_willis> LeeT91,  i wouldent trust it too much then. :P somthing seems.. odd.
[04:45] <tanlaan> to find the library it told me to goto my python directory /usr/lib/python2.4 and type in find . -name "libpython*a" -print
[04:45] <LeeT91> Its always worked, it works fine but I just dont like the label
[04:45] <tanlaan> once i did that it came up with nothing
[04:45] <tanlaan> thats why im here asking'
[04:46] <kristian> jramsey, I had to update a restricted module file, and edit something, the file was written with BIG TEXT.
[04:46] <kristian> jramsey, I can remove the to files I installed, and then the updater will find the files and download-install, then maybe the msg will come again?

[04:49] <jramsey> rtux, ur running dapper?
[04:49] <Jack_Sparrow> LeeT91: Did you fix that yet?
[04:49] <rtux> Take care, if you do that, don't reboot until you replace the drivers with another one.
[04:49] <rtux> Yes I am
[04:49] <LeeT91> What's the syntax with MTOOLS to change the drive label of /dev/sda1 (mounted at /media/LARGEDRV)?
[04:50] <LeeT91> hello?
[04:50] <LeeT91> What's the syntax with MTOOLS to change the drive label of /dev/sda1 (mounted at /media/LARGEDRV)?
[04:50] <kristian> rtux, regretted? My english are really bad...:P
[04:50] <KenSentMe> !patience
[04:50] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[04:50] <jramsey> rtux, are you building the ati dvr from source? you sure you have the distro here => `/home/rtux/install_files/ati'
[04:50] <ideogram> one thing I found annoying about Ubuntu is I tried to not install some updated packages (games and themes) but it kept popping up a notification that updates were available so I had to give in and install them
[04:50] <rtux> regretted means "I wish I never did that" :)
[04:51] <Jack_Sparrow> LeeT91: I have never used Mtools, but you could gksudo nautilus from term and edit the fstab that way
[04:51] <kristian> rtux, Ok thanx:)
[04:51] <rtux> Yes yes.. I have the .run file
[04:51] <nofx_br> any tips with the logitech 510 mouse ? it is fast but not precise... i cant find a good config for it... and use all the buttons too
[04:51] <LeeT91> I don't understand that - im new to linux
[04:51] <Warbo> ideogram: You can change that in the software preferences I think (or tell it to get them automatically, which will also get rid of the message)
[04:51] <dr_willis> nofx_br,  i saw some info on those kind of mice on the Gentoo wiki's   :)
[04:51] <ideogram> oh well I just installed it so didn't know that
[04:52] <Warbo>  /media isn't handled by fstab
[04:52] <bjohnson> what iso should I use to install ubuntu on a existing multiboot system (mixture of linux and windows paritions)
[04:52] <Jack_Sparrow> LeeT91: The file you need to edit is /etc/fstab
[04:52] <LeeT91> kk
[04:52] <nofx_br> dr_willis: gentoo wiki.. ok.. try to find something tnx
[04:52] <LeeT91> It's an external HDD
[04:52] <dr_willis> nofx_br,  they had a lot of info on my Mx518
[04:53] <nofx_br> dr_willis: my is the mx510.. should be too different
[04:53] <nofx_br> what you did ?
[04:53] <LeeT91> fstab isn't in /etc?
[04:53] <kristian> is there a log for Update Manager? Maybe I can see the msg there..?
[04:53] <Warbo> bjohnson: The desktop CD may be OK, but if you want to be certain then the alternate CD should usually work (but you lose GUI goodness). Also, install GRUB onto a partition, NOT the MBR (then add a chainloader entry to the GRUB which is already on the MBR to get it to boot your new GRUB)
[04:53] <tritium> LeeT91: it is
[04:53] <Jack_Sparrow> LeeT91: My bad...
[04:53] <LeeT91> fonts - foomatic, no other F's
[04:53] <rtux> LeeT91 this is what you write on the command line: sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[04:53] <LeeT91> k
[04:54] <bjohnson> Warbo: thnx
[04:54] <zhan> hello~
[04:54] <Warbo> LeeT91: I think it is HAL or Gnome-Volume_manager or something which controls the entries in /media. The only way I know to change them is to add them to fstab yourself and bypass HAL (although this isn't very good for removable drives)
[04:55] <jpgvietnam> hi
[04:55] <LeeT91> I've got fstab open
[04:55] <LeeT91> it's /dev/sda1 so...
[04:55] <stelki> Anybody else having problems with X crashing due to some glibc problem? happens while using firefox
[04:56] <LeeT91> /dev/sda1        /media/ExtHDD  auto    rw,user,noauto ?
[04:56] <ManOwaR`> Hello. Is there any repositories for Gnome 2.15 ?
[04:56] <Warbo> LeeT91: The easiest way to add an entry is to copy one which is already there, but change the values to what you want (although fstab is ONLY used at boot, or when called manually. It won't detect if you plug/unplug your USB drive)
[04:56] <LeeT91> Damn
[04:56] <LeeT91> what can I do then
[04:56] <rtux> jramsey are you still there?
[04:57] <LeeT91> It's a vfat / Windows Virtual FAT drive
[04:57] <jramsey> rtux yeah i am looking on the wike and google; you are not alone in ur problem
[04:57] <LeeT91> 233.74GiB
[04:57] <finalbeta> !sound
[04:57] <ubotu> If sound is not working, first try system -> prefrences -> multimedia system selector change it to alsa. If you still have problems then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems
[04:57] <thesonork> is there some kind of list which dlls i need for wine to run all the common sutff, cause i dont use winetools cause it damages my wine i think
[04:57] <rtux> oh my god.. are you sure?
[04:57] <dr_willis> i though i just used the right click/properties/items - ti rename the drive  on my usb drives LeeT91  and it kept the new name.
[04:57] <Reijk|CAGS> Hi, im having trouble with software raid 1, i can boot the kernel , then "mdam /dev/md0 hasbeen stardted with 2 drives.", same for md1 and md2
[04:57] <finalbeta> Does someone have an URL explaining exactly how sound works in Ubuntu? (not a troubleshooting guide)
[04:57] <Reijk|CAGS> then there can be mounted
[04:57] <tritium> thesonork: it doesn't damage wine.  It simply assists in setting up your personal config files
[04:57] <jramsey> rtux, what ati graphics chipset do u have?
[04:57] <wheelswitch> silly i know, but i have lost the network manger icon up in the top right hand corner, how do i get it back?
[04:58] <LeeT91> On the Properties the Name field is non-editable
[04:58] <rtux> Alastor Radeon ATI 9700 pro (R300)
[04:58] <KenSentMe> finalbeta: what do you want to know about sound?
[04:58] <PDani> hi
[04:58] <thesonork> tritium, on my opinion i just assists wine to crash and to have it reinstalled
[04:58] <Warbo> LeeT91: "gksudo nautilus"
[04:58] <thesonork> it*
[04:59] <PDani> how can i determine the distribution type of a linux system froma  bash-script?
[04:59] <KenSentMe> wheelswitch: right click on the menu bar, select add and choose the applet you want to add
[04:59] <Reijk|CAGS> mount: Mounting dev md1 on /root failed: no such device
[04:59] <Reijk|CAGS> any suggestions?
[04:59] <PDani> at least, decide between ubuntu or debian...
[04:59] <LeeT91> ah
[04:59] <LeeT91> its editable now
[04:59] <LeeT91> THANKS!
[04:59] <Warbo> WINETools is illegal isn't it? (Since it gets Idiot Exploiter which you are only allowed to use in Windows)
[05:00] <LeeT91> Wait.
[05:00] <Hudson_H> stefg: back,and in the live part its workable,must i dont be so noob as i am,i will reinstall it directly,but needet a lot of help to get erverythong working,:(
[05:00] <finalbeta> KenSentMe, ubuntu seems to be using Alsa, but I have applications using OSS. I see a program called Metacity, and two proccesses called ESD. How does it all work together. Because for my TV card I need to use SOX. That is OSS, and it gives me 5.1 sound, on alsa I get 2.5 or something sound.
[05:00] <thesonork> Warbo, is it?
[05:00] <Toma-> Warbo: only if you dont own a windows licnese
[05:00] <rtux> LeeT91
[05:00] <thesonork> alright
[05:00] <Stormx2> guys buy some CDs off shipit. They give you free stickers! it makes using ubuntu all worthwhile
[05:00] <LeeT91> ye rtux
[05:00] <finalbeta> KenSentMe, it looks like an awfull mess to me, I almost understand how the things work, but not how they all work together.
[05:00] <thesonork> so there is no list or something ?
[05:00] <dsah> I can't get my internet working :(
[05:00] <jramsey> rtux, does linux start in text mode? i mean is it usable?
[05:00] <Toma-> Warbo: alot of people do, since most OEM PC's have windows pre-installed
[05:00] <Warbo> thesonork: I'm not sure (there's nothing really wrong in running it, just that it may be hard to get hold of) WINEDoors is a newer effort
[05:01] <wheelswitch> KenSentMe, haha, that was the password at the start of lesuire suit larry, anyway, network manager is not listed in those items, to add to the bar.
[05:01] <rtux> You mean at startup? Yes it's text mode.. but then Gnome opens
[05:01] <LeeT91> Microsoft do a magazine to PC retailers urging them not to let a customer go without a preinstall of Windows
[05:01] <Warbo> Toma-: I thought the point was that you aren't allowed to run IE in a non-M$ environment, even Mac or something
[05:01] <jramsey> rtux, is gnome usable?
[05:01] <thesonork> Warbo, winedoors? never heard of *stupid me* where to get that one?
[05:01] <stefg> Hudson_H: this only proves something broken in the /etc/fstab or so... you could as well try a fix
[05:01] <kristian> If followed the howto to install ati driver, i did down till "sudo aticonfig --overlay-type=Xv". After that i did "sudo dpkg reconfigure xserver xorg" . I choosed Ati. Do I have xorg. conf now? And what happend when I selected ati as the driver in reconfigure?
[05:01] <Toma-> Warbo: nah
[05:01] <rtux> Yes.. now it is, after I restored fglrx
[05:01] <rtux> I uninstalled it due to that documentation page.. and then I got stuck in a black terminal..
[05:01] <dsah> how does one get ethernet to work? :P
[05:01] <rtux> until I fail safed..
[05:01] <Warbo> thesonork: I think wine-doors.org , but last I checked it was still heavily in alpha
[05:01] <LeeT91> "Sorry, couldn't rename LARGDRV to ExtHDD"
[05:02] <Hudson_H> stefg: ok thats sounds a bit more hopefull,but where do u find the fix that i need,or bether what fix do i need?
[05:02] <reiki> I'll be assembling a new machine soon. Completely different processor, video card, etc. Only reusing hard drive and optical. Will I be better off just doing a complete reinstall of Ubuntu?
[05:02] <thesonork> Warbo, well i think it will be better using that instead of DL'ing all the dlls and stuff one-by-one
[05:02] <Reijk|CAGS> Hi, im having trouble with software raid 1, i can boot the kernel , then "mdam /dev/md0 hasbeen stardted with 2 drives.", same for md1 and md2, then there cant be mounted. mount: Mounting dev md1 on /root failed: no such device
[05:02] <dr_willis> LeeT91,  your choice in names.. is.... well.. lacking. :P
[05:02] <thesonork> trying that thanks
[05:02] <jpgvietnam> how to intall a software in linux ?
[05:02] <Reijk|CAGS> any suggestions?
[05:02] <LeeT91> leet not because i'm 1337.
[05:02] <KenSentMe> wheelswitch: you do mean the icon whit the flashing screens? I have them under system & hardware section
[05:02] <LeeT91> I'm not
[05:02] <wheelswitch> nah
[05:03] <dr_willis> jpgvietnam,  it pays to read the ubuntu beginner guides and check out the ubuntu web siet.
[05:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Hudson_H: I know I am comming in late, but the script Diskmounter might clean up your fstab for you
[05:03] <dr_willis> site.
[05:03] <LeeT91> Why can't I rename my drive ! :(
[05:03] <jpgvietnam> i want ti intall jdk5.0
[05:03] <wheelswitch> its the network manager icon, it enables you to easily select what wireless network you want to connect to etc, KenSentMe
[05:03] <dr_willis> !java
[05:03] <ubotu> java is an object oriented programming language. To install a java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java For the runtime Sun Java install sun-java5-jre from the Multiverse repository
[05:03] <jramsey> rtux, sry i can't find the magic solution ... reask your question now and see if anyone else has a suggestion; dr_willis may
[05:03] <Hudson_H> Jack_Sparrow: late is not a problem,if it get fixed i'm happy
[05:03] <tanlaan> looking for support with this, tried "make"ing a file, everything is in this http://pastebin.ca/77888
[05:03] <Stormx2> jpgvietnam: Then you want to use Synaptic Package Manager
[05:03] <rtux> ok.. dr_willis.. are you free now?
[05:04] <stefg> Hudson_H: save a copy of the fstab from the Live-System somewhere and see how /media looks now... recreate this situation in your installed system
[05:04] <Stormx2> jpgvietnam: Go to System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager
[05:04] <dr_willis> rtux,  depends. :P biskets are done.. brb
[05:04] <finalbeta> KenSentMe ? :p can you help.
[05:04] <tanlaan> if anyone could help me solve what i need to make it i would be very grateful
[05:04] <rtux> :D
[05:04] <jpgvietnam> yes , i will try
[05:04] <voyage34> Hi all. Can I upgrade to 6.06  via apt-get?
[05:04] <Jack_Sparrow> Hudson_H:   http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter
[05:04] <rtux> tyt dr_willis

[05:04] <KenSentMe> finalbeta: no, sorry. Maybe you could try googling because it's not an ubunut thing
[05:04] <twa1296> hi, i've got my hd partitioned into ntfs, fat32 and ext3 and i want to delete the fat32 and merge into ext3. could this be problematic?
[05:04] <tanlaan> looking for support with this, tried "make"ing a file, everything is in this http://pastebin.ca/77888
[05:05] <LeeT91> I can't rename the /media/LARGEDRV -> "Sorry, couldn't rename "LARGEDRV" to "TEST"

[05:05] <tanlaan> if anyone could help me solve what i need to make it i would be very grateful
[05:05] <adamant1988> query: I installed Kubuntu-desktop on my ubuntu install and it is causing all kinds of weird behavior.. (computer not shutting down correctly etc) how can I remove it?
[05:05] <voyage34> thanks Ng
[05:05] <KenSentMe> !patience > tanlaan
[05:05] <Hudson_H> stefg: in fstab i didn't saw the partition,but there i started gparted again,and it gave the info of my partitions correct
[05:05] <Hobbsee> adamant1988: sudo apt-get remove libqt3-mt
[05:05] <tanlaan> kensentme: sorry :(
[05:06] <LeeT91> I can't rename the /media/LARGEDRV -> "Sorry, couldn't rename "LARGEDRV" to "TEST"
[05:06] <Warbo> tanlaan: That looks very specific (especially the lack of a configure script) so you would need to find someone who has tried that specific piece of software
[05:06] <kristian> What drivers do i remove to remove fglrx?
[05:06] <Hudson_H> Jack_Sparrow: my response is a bit late,but the problem is not in the fstab
[05:06] <tanlaan> warbo: ok, thank you
[05:06] <Jack_Sparrow> k
[05:06] <adamant1988> Hobbsee, will that remove all the kde packages? (including the programs that I use like ktorrent?)
[05:06] <rtux> LeeT91.. did you find out the solution? Please tell me because I want to know that ;)
[05:07] <dr_willis> yummy
[05:07] <LeeT91> I still havn't figured it out
[05:07] <Hobbsee> adamant1988: yes...
[05:07] <stefg> Hudson_H: something went wrong, no doubt... but i don't have the instinct of being able to tell you what from a + 2000 km distance :-)
[05:07] <hareem> i need some help guys. Can any one tell me how i can setup ubuntu to act as a kiosk
[05:07] <adamant1988> I want to keep some of the programs though...  I just want the desktop files removed.
[05:07] <rtux> Shame. Nobody knows how to label a hard-drive? That's a good reason to switch to XP :P
[05:07] <adamant1988> the stuff that could be causing this odd behavior
[05:08] <thesonork> umm damn only able to get it via svn >_>
[05:08] <Warbo> adamant1988: You could use aptitude (sudo aptitude) which will let you go through the list of what is to be removed and you can press colon to keep some of them
[05:08] <terror__> Hay algn juego tipo Sonic para LInux?
[05:08] <Jack_Sparrow> rtux: Want me to walk you through it..
[05:08] <adamant1988> it would probably be easier to take down a list and reinstall the ones I want... wouldn't it?
[05:08] <stefg> !es
[05:08] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[05:08] <Hudson_H> stefg: i don't blame u,but like u pointed out the problem is in te dmesg and there i don't have a clue to fix something
[05:09] <hareem> hi. any one know how to make ubuntu into a public kiosk.
[05:09] <rtux> Yeah, I will be glad to Mr. Jack_Sparrow
[05:09] <terror__> Da
[05:09] <terror__> The english is shit.
[05:09] <dr_willis> hareem,  with firefox?
[05:09] <Jack_Sparrow> rtux: go to terminal  type gksudo nautilus
[05:09] <Huh1> Hey. I'm running Dapper Drake with Gnome. Since I've installed some multimedia stuff in automatix my sound isn't working anymore properly, i.e. on youtube I get no sound as well as in beep media player. I got the totem movie player back with sound by reinstalling all those gstreamer plugins. is this a known bug?
[05:09] <AntiWindows> ** (nautilus:16332): WARNING **: Hit unhandled case 32 (Directory busy) in fm_report_error_renaming_file
[05:09] <stefg> Hudson_H: but let the drives be mounted in /media and only symlink them to your home-dir..
[05:09] <rtux> did it
[05:09] <Warbo> adamant1988: If you go in aptitude, use "/" to search and put in "kubuntu-desktop" then press "-" to remove it, press "g" to "go", then look through the list of packages to be removed. Deselect some, then press "g" again and it will remove what is selected
[05:09] <hareem> but if i use firefox kiosk would it allow the user to use openoffice etc
[05:09] <Ng> Huh1: it's unfortunately a bit late now, but automatix is mostly junk and worth avoiding
[05:10] <Jack_Sparrow> rtux:  browse to /media after hitting the up arrow til it greys out
[05:10] <dr_willis> hareem,  thats not really a koisk then :)
[05:10] <Jack_Sparrow> rtux:  then rename it
[05:10] <Ng> Huh1: there is a channel for it though, I think, #automatix
[05:10] <stefg> Hudson_H: so if you didn't customize too much, maybe a reinstall is the least pain
[05:10] <rtux> I am in media now
[05:10] <Hudson_H> stefg: i don't get why u keep pointing that direction,it worked fine like it stood there,ok its not nice,but cleaning up i can do later
[05:10] <Jack_Sparrow> right click rename
[05:10] <AntiWindows> Jack_Sparrow it wont let me : Error, cannot rename.......
[05:11] <hareem> well basically i need to setup ubuntu for public access. But i dont want people snopping into admin section of the os
[05:11] <Jack_Sparrow> anti, did you enter your user password when asked
[05:11] <Warbo> Huh1: Youtube uses Flash, and theproprietary Flash player steals the sound card, so it has to be started when nothing else is making a noise, and then you can't use anything else with sound until you close the youtube window
[05:11] <rtux> Jack_Sparrow thank you so much :)
[05:11] <tritium> Huh1: automatix should be avoided
[05:11] <Hudson_H> stefg: i needed a lot of help to get my graphics working en to be able to listen to the music on that particular drive that i now can't acces anymore
[05:11] <AntiWindows> Yes
[05:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Glad to help
[05:11] <Jack_Sparrow> AntiWindows:  It works for me and rtux..
[05:11] <dr_willis> hareem,  kde has some very advanced 'lockdown' features that can limit what users can do. but it takes some learning and twidling with the config files.. Not sure if gnome has same features or not
[05:12] <Huh1> I know now that automatix is utter bullshit.
[05:12] <AntiWindows> Looking in the terminal: ** (nautilus:16474): WARNING **: Hit unhandled case 32 (Directory busy) in fm_report_error_renaming_file
[05:12] <Jack_Sparrow> AntiWindows:  try again slowly
[05:12] <rtux> Jack_Sparrow I am afraid to tell you that this was no the problem I was experiencing, I had another problem which I will be happy if take a look.
[05:12] <Huh1> but well I did it back then.
[05:12] <tritium> Huh1: yes, but please watch the language here
[05:12] <Huh1> so how do I get my sound back properly
[05:12] <Warbo> !easyubuntu
[05:12] <ubotu> EasyUbuntu is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. For help with and discussion of easyubuntu please join #easyubuntu.
[05:12] <Huh1> tritium:  sorry for that
[05:12] <hareem> so ubuntu can't do anything
[05:12] <tritium> Huh1: your sound problem is one of the reasons we don't recommend or support automatix.  It can break your system.
[05:12] <nofx_br>  I still dont get this no root user... i'm using my account with privileges...and I have to enter this acc pass again to install and admin stuff...
[05:12] <nofx_br> ok.... is this the correct ? I made another user acc for me, but I have to login in this one to do stuff! so pretty boring
[05:13] <jesus> ola
[05:13] <Jack_Sparrow> rtux:  I though you just wanted to rename your fat32 drive
[05:13] <dr_willis> hareem,   it can do everything. :P you just got to learn to use what tools are out to do the job you want to do.
[05:13] <AntiWindows> Can anyone help me? Trying to rename my vfat drive and: ** (nautilus:16474): WARNING **: Hit unhandled case 32 (Directory busy) in fm_report_error_renaming_file
[05:13] <tritium> nofx_br: anyone in the admin group has sudo priveleges
[05:13] <Warbo> nofx_br: Any user in the "admin" group can do system admin stuff
[05:13] <rtux> No, I was just asking this problem for LeeT91.. she wanted that.
[05:13] <KenSentMe> hareem: add a new user through System - Administratio - Users and groups
[05:13] <AntiWindows> I'm a he
[05:13] <Jack_Sparrow> AntiWindows:  do you have something from that drive open?
[05:13] <AntiWindows> No I don't
[05:14] <hareem> i know i can limit user access in the GUI under the add user thingy. But the problem now is how can i get users to log off at a specific time
[05:14] <Jack_Sparrow> AntiWindows:  looks like something is using it..
[05:14] <AntiWindows> I can turn it off and on again if you like
[05:14] <nofx_br> so the good practice is make another acc for me in the admin group
[05:14] <AntiWindows> Off...
[05:14] <AntiWindows> On...
[05:14] <Warbo> hareem: You could maybe do that with Cron?
[05:14] <hareem> ok
[05:14] <tritium> nofx_br: only one is needed
[05:14] <Warbo> nofx_br: The point of sudo is that you only need one account per user
[05:14] <Jack_Sparrow> rtux:  did she get it ok?
[05:14] <AntiWindows> Still don't work
[05:15] <spatieman> problem: I just installed Ubuntu 6 on my new machine, on the harddrive there is also a version of Window ,i am using a bootmanager to switch between window and Ubuntu, with ubuntu 5.10 i had to install a lilo for correct booting Ubuntu, but Ubuntu 6 installes grub, and after creating a new login on the boot manager, the boot manager refuses to load the new ubuntu setup, how do i force ubuntu to install a lilo for correct loading ubuntu true
[05:15] <hareem> i used openkiosk. But the darn thing doesnt install
[05:15] <Jack_Sparrow> rtux:  what was your question.. not that I would know the answer
[05:15] <TanitoARG> Hello!!! I need help. I can't find neither can't install PHP interpreter binaries (not APACHE MODULE) in Ubuntu Dapper... Where is that? Where can I find that .deb or apt-get repo..?
[05:15] <tich> my dvd reader can't read a data dvd i made on XP. does anyone have any advice on how to fix it?
[05:15] <Warbo> spatieman: Whathappens when you try to boot?
[05:15] <Hudson_H> stefg: a kernel reinstall is that not enough?
[05:15] <stefg> no
[05:15] <dr_willis> tich,  depends on How you made it under xp.
[05:15] <NotWorking-ImAHe> Why does it say something is using it?
[05:15] <rtux> Jack_Sparrow I think she already left the chatroom.. anyway. I will tell you my question, see if you can do something about it.
[05:15] <dr_willis> tich,  could try mounting it as a udf file system
[05:15] <malv> anyone know of a good bt program for managing multiple DLs?

[05:17] <default> hi
[05:17] <paulvolk> it claims on there site that is safe
[05:17] <Ng> paulvolk: it may work fine for some people, but for others it just causes more problems than it solves
[05:17] <rtux> paulvolk I don't recommend automatix. Not that it's not good, but maybe it just installs everything and it might cause future problems.
[05:17] <tritium> paulvolk: do you trust every website you read?
[05:17] <Warbo> Ng: Like Win XP SP2 :)
[05:17] <TanitoARG> tritium, sure? .. but not only php apache module .. I need php stand alone  binaries
[05:17] <tich> Jack_Sparrow, there is a good chance i didn't (what is the MM stuff?)
[05:17] <Reijk|CAGS> here same problem posted on forum but no reply's with a solution
[05:17] <Ng> paulvolk: by far the best solution is to read the docs on help.ubuntu.com, or ask in here and do the things by hand
[05:17] <spatieman> when i reboot, my CAG bootmanger is loaded, when i press the button for loading ubuntu i get the message Boot sector not found of vallid

[05:17] <tritium> TanitoARG: there are a ton of packages
[05:18] <tich> warbo, it isn't corrupt i checked it on a XP machine.
[05:18] <TanitoARG> tritium, Where? .. I installed "apt-get install php5" and I have no "php" executable in my PC ... only apache modules..
[05:18] <Warbo> tich: Just my experience
[05:18] <tritium> TanitoARG: some may be in either the universe or multiverse repos, so be sure to configures your /etc/apt/sources.list for those

[05:18] <default> small question:  When tryping to compile something I get the error msg "no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH" - I have gcc-4.0 and it works but it seems that the link to gcc is wrong. Could someone give me an example, how the link must look like that the command 'gcc' is always redirected to 'gcc-4.0'?
[05:18] <nofx_br> TanitoARG: but php is an apache module
[05:18] <Ng> TanitoARG: you probably need php5-cli
[05:18] <tritium> default: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[05:18] <TanitoARG> Ng, ok... that could be...
[05:19] <Warbo> default: "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
[05:19] <Ng> TanitoARG: by default it will just install the apache module, as you noticed
[05:19] <rtux> Sparrow... you still there?
[05:19] <twa1296> is it problematic to increase the size of an ext3 partition?
[05:19] <stefg> !info php

[05:19] <TanitoARG> Ng... Yes... I have already installed php5-cli .. but no php interpreter executable is in my machine...
[05:19] <TanitoARG> sorry, I have a phone call
[05:19] <TanitoARG> just a min
[05:19] <default> Warbo & tritium: thanks
[05:19] <Warbo> twa1296: My old system was screwed around with all the time, and it seemed to handle it fine
[05:20] <tich> Jack_Sparrow, oh yes, i have installed all the restricted formats. the disk won't even mount sometimes.
[05:20] <Stormx2> zomg stickers :D:D
[05:20] <Kennie> does Ubuntu have trouble with software raid?
[05:20] <Ng> TanitoARG: should be /usr/bin/php5
[05:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Warbo:  have you seen this for burning ISO's in Windows, just double click and off it goes  http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm
[05:20] <twa1296> Warbo: i have a fat32 on my hd that i want to delete and merge into an existing ext3, so should be fine?
[05:20] <Warbo> Jack_Sparrow: Wow, that might have been useful to me 2 years ago :)
[05:20] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[05:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Usefull for people trying to burn Ub disks..
[05:21] <Warbo> twa1296: Yes. The command to resize ext2 (if you are doing it manually) fills the partition by default, which makes growing it easy (or you can use GParted I think)
[05:21] <twa1296> Warbo: i see, thanks
[05:22] <rtux> Is there any Linux Gurus here? :)
[05:22] <Ng> rtux: ask your question and find out
[05:22] <Warbo> Jack_Sparrow: Does it take loads of RAM/SWAP to burn an ISO or not, like from a LiveCD
[05:22] <rtux> Ng This is my question, and not yet any solutions: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=208268
[05:23] <Warbo> Jack_Sparrow: I have burned an 8MB boot CD from DSL before, so I can't tell :)
[05:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Not
[05:23] <TanitoARG> Ng, that worked! THANKS! ... Now I need to install PDO drivers for PHP5 ... I couldn't find the packages :( ...
[05:23] <Ng> rtux: why are you using fakeroot?
[05:23] <Ng> rtux: oh, you're trying to build a package, ignore that
[05:23] <Ng> rtux: I'm no ati expert, unfortunately
[05:23] <rtux> Ng this was the written advice on the documentation page
[05:24] <rtux> On my post.. get to the link ABOVE
[05:24] <rtux> you will know why I wrote that.
[05:24] <Warbo> rtux: You know I have not seen fglrx driver in module assistant, are you sure that is possible to do?
[05:24] <jramsey> kristian, sry was afk; check this log /var/log/dpkg.log
[05:25] <Jack_Sparrow> rtux:  I have no idea.. HAving a blond day her..
[05:25] <rtux> man I am a total linux newbie. I know nothing about drivers modules etc.
[05:25] <Warbo> rtux: Just run "sudo m-a" then look in "select" and see if there is any fglrx driver
[05:25] <spatieman> WARBO: press the button for loading ubuntu i get the message Boot sector not found of vallid
[05:26] <spatieman> of=or

[05:26] <Trae> Does anyone here know what time it is now in BST?
[05:26] <Warbo> boot sector I mean
[05:26] <Warbo> 16:27
[05:26] <nofx_br> where ubuntu mounts one samba share I have opened in nautilus?
[05:26] <Trae> Warbo, ahhh thanks
[05:26] <rtux> Warbo I don't find it in Select
[05:26] <spatieman> should be in the MBR, but my boot manager is master of the MBR.
[05:27] <Ng> nofx_br: it doesn't, they are accessed using gnome-vfs, which is a virtual filesystem
[05:27] <dr_willis> nofx_br,  it dosent as far as i know. it just scans the share and shows the info.,   'smb4k' can actually mount the shares
[05:27] <Warbo> rtux: Yeah, neither do I. That's why I am unsure that it is possible to do in module assistant (but I always use it for nvidia)
[05:27] <nofx_br> ahh I see....smbmount // so...
[05:27] <spatieman> the question is than, can i force ubunto to install a lilo on the / partition so CAG can start ubuntu
[05:27] <nofx_br> there is a way to acess trought bash without mouting?
[05:27] <Warbo> spatieman: sudo apt-get install lilo ?
[05:27] <dr_willis> nofx_br,  not that i know of.
[05:27] <tich> is there any advice for why my dvd won't read a data disk? (it reads movie disks fine)
[05:27] <rtux> Warbo did you check the documentation link provided in my thread? Please check it and see it, maybe that page is buggy.
[05:27] <mc-rpg> hi everyone
[05:28] <kingruedi> I need help with configuring my tv-out on an nvidia card. I configured X11 according to the nvidia readme. My TV is connected to S-VHS Out (via a S-VHS-2-Scart Connector). But when I restart X11. My Monitor gets no signal (Which should be the Default Monitor). But I can't see anything on my TV neither.
[05:28] <nofx_br> cool
[05:28] <cntb> sudo apt-get install lynx
[05:28] <Ng> nofx_br: there are some gnome-vfs command line tools, but generally it'd probably be easier to mount it
[05:28] <jramsey> tich, where was the disk burned and is it an R or RW?
[05:28] <kingruedi> the card is an geforce2 card from asus
[05:28] <spatieman> me n00b on linux, howto ,whereto sudo apt-get ?, in a console ?

[05:28] <Larsson-Sweden> My swap partition is being used by Ubuntu. Is this a bad thing?
[05:28] <mc-rpg> someone knows what is the font of ubuntu logo, is for an artwokr im planning to do
[05:29] <rtux> spatieman >> Applications >> Accessories >> Terminal
[05:29] <nofx_br> hummm i think samba isnt installed.... that other command  mount  smb ... something like... will work
[05:29] <spatieman> ollala
[05:29] <vimemo> k tal?
[05:29] <jramsey> Larsson-Sweden, the swap partition is owned by Ubuntu; you want it to use the swap partition
[05:29] <spatieman> on the install CD i hope :)
[05:29] <Warbo> rtux: Well I have never tried that method, but I have run the ATI program and generated some .deb files from it and they worked OK, no module assistant needed (I think that is to make them update when you update your kernel. Without module assistant you would need to reinstall after a kernel upgrade)
[05:29] <Larsson-Sweden> jramsey, Ok, so it's not a bad thing at all? I think Open office is stealing some RAM for me.
[05:30] <Larsson-Sweden> *from
[05:30] <nofx_br> samba is here... why tehre isn't smbmount ?? hehehe
[05:30] <jramsey> Larsson-Sweden, nah it's a good thing other than it may be an indication you need more RAM but OO is a RAM hog anyway
[05:30] <HorzA> is it possible to check the cpu temperature through console?
[05:30] <Larsson-Sweden> jramsey, thanks!
[05:30] <jramsey> Larsson-Sweden, yw
[05:30] <rtux> I get some of what you say. Warbo, I have the .run ATI file can you give me some commands to use to make the .deb files and get it installed without module assitant?
[05:30] <nofx_br> HorzA: i wanna know this too
[05:30] <Trae> Warbo, thanks again. :)
[05:31] <joyce> hi
[05:31] <joyce> anyone here
[05:31] <Warbo> rtux: Usually "sudo ./<whatever>.run" will do it, and that will make some .deb files (depending on what you tell it) then "sudo dpkg -i <whatever>.deb" will install a deb
[05:31] <Schamane> moin
[05:32] <rtux> So I do those respectively and then they will be installed and replace any existing drivers?
[05:32] <Warbo> rtux: I don't know about replacing. You should probably uninstall any that are already installed first
[05:32] <joyce> hey man
[05:33] <haze76> hello
[05:33] <haze76> I cannot install Ubuntu on a Apple iBook 700 mhz, because I am unable to change the screen resolution to more than 640x480, and the installer window is bigger than that. Any ideas?
[05:34] <rtux> uninstalling drivers seems risky to me, the last time I did that I was stuck in X-Windows. Actually the existing drivers are ATI drivers fglrx so I wouldn't think it would be any harm to leave them.
[05:34] <Warbo> haze76: You could tell the GUI to use something like 1024x768, then press ctrl-alt-+ to "zoom in" and get a smaller resolution, but with a screen larger than your display
[05:35] <Warbo> rtux: There is no point removing "ati" drivers, only "radeon" or older "fglrx" ones
[05:35] <pharcvde> quit
[05:35] <Warbo> pharcvde: OK
[05:35] <pharcvde> oops
[05:35] <Warbo> :)
[05:35] <gumpish> How big does a /boot partition need to be? (Old machine, old BIOS.)
[05:35] <pharcvde> lol
[05:35] <rtux> Ok Warbo. Thanks :) Now another question: this command sudo ./ something.run did not work for me
[05:35] <rtux> sudo: ./ati-driver-installer-8.26.18-x86.run: command not found
[05:36] <Warbo> gumpish: Maybe 50MB to be on the safe side
[05:36] <pharcvde> has anyone successfully made a loki installer before?
[05:36] <gumpish> groovy
[05:36] <Warbo> rtux: Don't put a colon after sudo
[05:36] <Tommy2k4> he didnt the colon is in the error msg
[05:36] <Warbo> rtux: Hang on, are you in the right directory
[05:36] <rtux> Warbo there is no :)
[05:36] <Warbo> Tommy2k4: Just realised :)
[05:36] <rtux> yes
[05:37] <spatieman> RTUX: i suplose to install the package when i am in ubuntu ,and not the liveCD ,if yes,  i cant boot ubuntu ,couse CAG Boot manager cant find a vallid bootblok for the ubuntu partition
[05:37] <Warbo> rtux: Maybe "sudo sh <whatever>.run"
[05:37] <reb42> hello!
[05:37] <Warbo> hello
[05:37] <rtux> spatieman I don't quite understand you.
[05:37] <rtux> Warbo I will try the command now
[05:37] <spatieman> :)
[05:38] <Surfer> hi
[05:38] <rtux> WORKS
[05:38] <Warbo> spatieman: Use the LiveCD, mount your HD install then use chroot to access it (and bind /dev to the /dev of your system)
[05:38] <rtux> Warbo.. I have a gui open for me now.. there are two options
[05:38] <rtux> Install driver 8.....
[05:38] <rtux> and also Generate distribution specific driver
[05:39] <Warbo> rtux: second one
[05:39] <JonathanHarford> Can I get a hand installing wifi on my laptop (Ubuntu 6.06)?
[05:39] <rtux> Now three options: Redhat Suse + Other packages :)
[05:39] <Warbo> rtux: Erm, well it isn't RedHat or Suse.....
[05:39] <Geheimnis> I'd like to create DVDs from AVI files. However, the file would be bigger than a 4.7 GB DVD disk allows, is there any program that allows to compress the file so that it fits on a 4.7 GB DVD ?
[05:39] <rtux> I know.. that's the problem.
[05:39] <spatieman> RTUX: I have a 80GB SATAn HD for my OS's ,I installed the CAG Boot manager so that i can switch betwean windows and ubuntu ,Booting to windows works ok, but the manager seems not to handle the GRUB loader for ubuntu ,so it cant load ubuntu
[05:40] <Warbo> rtux: Try the "other"
[05:40] <spatieman> RTUX: On ubuntu 5.10 i could force to isntall the LILO so ,the boot manager can handle it
[05:40] <Warbo> spatieman: If you want lilo boot into a LiveCD (and talk to me, not rtux :))
[05:40] <rtux> spatieman calm :) I am a newbie like you. But all I know is that the Grub that comes with Ubuntu is enough to dual boot with windows
[05:40] <spatieman> oh ,sorry !!!!!!
[05:41] <reb42> how do you remove the kubuntu splash - unistall kubuntu-artwork or what?
[05:41] <Jemt> Greetz. I been having a weird problem. When I run 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg', I only get the option to set up my Video Card, not the monitor. Why is that ?
[05:41] <rtux> just make sure you install Windows and THEN Ubuntu.
[05:41] <spatieman> WARBO: My humble exuses!
[05:41] <spatieman> Warbo: sorry, i thought he was from the helpdesk
[05:41] <Warbo> spatieman: You can boot into a LiveCD then mount your ubuntu system
[05:41] <haze76> Warbo: The problem is that it seems impossible for me to make the GUI be anything but 640x480. Can you zoom in, but not out?
[05:41] <Warbo> spatieman: That lets you access it without booting it, so you can install lilo
[05:42] <skavenge> haze76: push comes to shove the alternate install cd uses a text install ..
[05:42] <spatieman> Warbo, me n00b, how to mount ?
[05:42] <rtux> Warbo I know you've got pressure on you now. Feel free to take a rest whenever you want ;)
[05:42] <haze76> skavenge: thats what I have to do I think
[05:42] <Warbo> spatieman: "sudo mount /dev/<whatever your partition is> /mnt"
[05:42] <spatieman> moment.
[05:43] <kristian> fakeroot sh ./ati-driver-installer-<version>.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/dapper, How do I use this? <version> should be switched with 8.26.18 ... But still I write wrong?
[05:43] <Warbo> Dammit, seems I got sunburned from riding my bike to pick up a CD :(
[05:43] <reb42> how do you remove the kubuntu splash - unistall kubuntu-artwork or what?
[05:43] <nofx_br> what is wrong? sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=Guest //<IP_ADDRESS>/torrents /mnt/whata     "wrong fs type"
[05:43] <reb42> Warbo: an ubuntu cd?
[05:43] <spatieman> sunburn not good!
[05:43] <Surfer> I'm configuring kernel and don't know if I should include HPET in kernel or not... now when I boot Ubuntu on my laptop everything freezes when the line with HPET [something]  high-res timesources [something]  appears, the only way to boot system is adding acpi=off. Maybe there is something wrong with HPET? I have ASUS laptop with Celeron M420 processor... Can anyone help me?
[05:44] <Warbo> reb42: Sort of, I need a custom bootCD to run my system (and I left it at my Dad's house)
[05:44] <haze76> skavenge: however, this means that the final install will be severely crippled as well.
[05:44] <rtux> After choosing "Packages for other Distributions" a message comes out that says: "To generate packages for distributions other than RedHat and SusE, restart the installer from the command line with the --listpkg option to view the complete list of generatable packages. The use the --buildpkg option to build a package from the list. The --listpkg option provides instructions for using --buildpkg. Warbo
[05:44] <skavenge> haze76: at least then it would get installed and you could edit the x server config manually to your screen size if it still didnt detect it after an install
[05:44] <haze76> The only Linux flavor that works well with Macs seems to be Yellow Dog, but I really dislike their style, so I want to use eithet Ubuntu, or Fedora if that does not work well
[05:45] <reb42> to answer my own ?: remove kubuntu-artwork-usplash
[05:45] <Warbo> rtux: Then do that (run "sudo sh <whatever>.run --listpkg")
[05:45] <Ro1> i have my ubuntu distro like perfect now, how can i save this ...i mean like up make a rescue disk or somethingl ike that
[05:45] <reb42> haze76: what doesnt work well?
[05:45] <Warbo> Yellow Dog seemed to be a PowerPC Fedora, then Fedora embraced PowerPC themselves (and nicked YD's package manager :))
[05:46] <haze76> reb42: After booting the ppc LiveCD, I am unable to change the screen resolution to anything but 640x480, the option is not available in the control panel Screen Resolution. Therefore, I cannot install Ubuntu, since the installer window is too large to fit in 640x480
[05:46] <haze76> Yellow Dog has really nice drivers for Macs, why cant the other PPC Linux flavors "steal" it? Proprietary?
[05:46] <reb42> haze76: you can grab the window with alt to move it
[05:47] <Surfer> Should HPET be in kernel or not?
[05:47] <Warbo> haze76: Try the alternate CD (you can use alt-leftclick to drag a window around, but the GNOME panel stops it. Myabe turn off the panel?)
[05:47] <haze76> reb42: I cant move it  in such a way that the bottom of the window becomes visible, therefore I cannot press "next"
[05:47] <reb42> haze76: and when you get installed i can help you find the right xorg settings for higher resolution
[05:47] <Warbo> spatieman: Are you in a LiveCD with your system mounted at all?
[05:47] <kristian> SOmeone help me with this? "fakeroot sh ./ati-driver-installer-<version>.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/dapper" and switch version with the version of the ati installer! But when I have done that, it dosen't work! Can't find file directory........
[05:47] <reb42> haze76: not even grabbing it with alt?
[05:47] <haze76> Warbo: I am downloading the alternative CD now
[05:48] <nofx_br> how do you guys mount a samba share ? ?
[05:48] <Warbo> haze76: remove the top panel and try again
[05:48] <haze76> reb42: holding alt and grabbing it you mean? I will try that ASAP and tell you what happens
[05:48] <haze76> Thanks a lot by the way
[05:48] <spatieman> Warbo: I was..
[05:48] <Warbo> spatieman: Just wondering if you still wanted some help
[05:48] <haze76> I tried removing the top panel, it's not enough
