[05:15] <porky_scratching> I got a .dat file that contains all my passwords, they have been encrypted by a program, I know the password to unlock the file but it only opens up in the application and there is no way to copy them over so I can delete the application and use my passwords elsewhere does anyone know of a application I can use on the .dat file to make a plain txt copy , is this even possible? I assmue it is...
[05:15] <UH^MERLIN> hey
[05:15] <porky_scratching> ...becuase I know the key?
[05:15] <phreak97> nickrud, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10688
[05:16] <connfrey> I can't unmount a partition, it seems it's busy, BUT I don't not why; can I know what's busying the partition?
[05:16] <nena> hey
[05:16] <fyrestrtr> porky_scratching: what program did you use to encrypt it?
[05:17] <fyrestrtr> connfrey: if you have it open anywhere (like you have the folder open somewhere or some program is reading it).
[05:17] <porky_scratching> It is a password manager that came with a browser I use deepentexplorer
[05:17] <vars> hey is there a way to test memory with the ubuntu live cd?
[05:17] <fyrestrtr> porky_scratching: eeeeh, don't know if its possible.
[05:17] <vars> or any live CD
[05:17] <bsdfox> porky_scratching, you probably can't get the plaintext password out of it
[05:17] <refnumzx> akin_to you are going to have to look at smb.conf and make sure that your shares are setup properly
[05:17] <th0rndike> hello all
[05:17] <fyrestrtr> akin_to: if you are using two ubuntu boxes, you don't need samba problems.
[05:17] <fyrestrtr> you can just use nfs
[05:18] <eyequeue> 'dpkg -l | grep foo'    is there a value for foo that i need to grep for after changing to dapper, to make certain i don't have anything from backports left over?
[05:18] <connfrey> fyrestrtr, yes, I know, but I'm in console, and I'm not in thr waht?e dir of partition, something is using it, can I discove
[05:18] <connfrey> excuse me
[05:18] <nickrud> phreak97, you still need to correct the refresh rates for monitor[1]  : you are only allowing 60 hz there. Bingo.
[05:18] <th0rndike> guys i keep getting an update message but i press install and it doesnt install
[05:18] <connfrey> touchpad
[05:18] <porky_scratching> I would thought if I knew the key then maybe it would be simply a case of reversin gthe process, without having to result to brute forc
[05:18] <eyequeue> we had to do this after dist-upgrading to breezy i recall, not sure if that's still the case or not
[05:18] <Mez> eyequeue, dpkg -l | grep ~
[05:18] <phreak97> nickrud, that's my tv, ofcourse i'm only allowing 60Hz:P
[05:18] <fyrestrtr> porky_scratching: without knowing what encryption scheme is used, there is no use to brute force anything.
[05:18] <kronoz_> how do i configure CUPS?
[05:19] <connfrey> fyrestrtr, yes, I know, but I'm in console, and I'm not in the dir of partition, something is using it, can I discoveer what?
[05:19] <th0rndike> !nfs
[05:19] <ubotu> somebody said nfs was see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NFSClientHowTo and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NFSServerHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[05:19] <fyrestrtr> kronoz_: System -> Administration -> Printing
[05:19] <eyequeue> Mez: so the backports have a tilde? cool, that's familiar
[05:19] <JoeMorris> nickrud right but does this work even with betas?
[05:19] <th0rndike> ;)
[05:19] <JoeMorris> nickrud and alphas?
[05:19] <porky_scratching> yes knowing the algorithm is a good start but no idea even how to do that :/
[05:19] <phreak97> nickrud, i cant have monitor 1 go higher, it doesnt support it
[05:19] <kronoz_> fyrestrtr: i've tried that justs stays on initilizing manager
[05:19] <phreak97> it's my tv
[05:19] <graveson> i am receiving an error with k3b about encrypted dvd when trying to copy my dvd's.how can i get around this
[05:19] <Mez> eyequeue, sorry dpkg -l | grep \~
[05:20] <JoeMorris> nickrud:  what im getting at is if i install flight 5 dapper, and just keep updating, i will not need to install the new dapper when it comes out?
[05:20] <JoeMorris> and i never will?
[05:20] <kronoz_> graveson; libdvdcss
[05:20] <fyrestrtr> connfrey: you can perhaps find out from the process list, but if its something like a network mount --- it could be a delay in the network. If its a cd, it could be a bad cd (stuck on reading).
[05:20] <eyequeue> Mez: null output, that's not bash interpreting it as $HOME is it?  lol, gotcha
[05:20] <kronoz_> something like that
[05:20] <nickrud> phreak97, point to you, and there are no refresh & sync ranges in monitor 0 (sorry, I misread, that's the one you are using) I'm overmultitasking, I'll use that as my excuse :)
[05:20] <fyrestrtr> You can force unmount it if you want, but this is a last resort.
[05:20] <porky_scratching> I dont wanna trwal hacking sites so I need a good white hat cracking tool everyone trusts if there is such a thing

[05:21] <tristanmike> th0rndike, what's the update for ?
[05:21] <nickrud> phreak97, the values from your monitor manual
[05:21] <JoeMorris> which is the faq on monitors?

[05:22] <JoeMorris> everyone has issues with the monitors
[05:22] <dli> I'm on dialup, can I generate a list of needed .deb files for a package, so I can download them from other system
[05:22] <JoeMorris> with windows it doesnt detect it right either
[05:22] <fyrestrtr> everyone except for me :)
[05:22] <JoeMorris> but it gives me multiple refresh rates to choose
[05:22] <tristanmike> My monitor is just peachy
[05:23] <apokryphos> dli: you'll want to look into apt-zip
[05:23] <JoeMorris> not everyone i mean a handful
[05:23] <dli> apokryphos, thanks
[05:23] <nickrud> I had a card that didn't work with ddc, I had to do it by hand for every monitor I ever attached
[05:23] <JoeMorris> after one changes sync frequencies for the monitor, how do you add in the additional higher refresh rates?
[05:24] <dli> apokryphos, looks good, thanks
[05:24] <JoeMorris> also whats the faq for the sync frequency changing :P

[05:25] <phreak97>     VertRefresh 60 - 85
[05:25] <th0rndike> ok nvm i got it
[05:25] <phreak97> no im not
[05:25] <nickrud> phreak97, look up your monitor on the web, get the correct values
[05:25] <phreak97> nickrud, why?
[05:25] <nickrud> phreak97, cuz it matters?
[05:25] <dli> My xfce4-panel keeps crashing, any easy way to auto start it?
[05:26] <SilentJihad> Howdy, can anyone help me install Mplayer codecs? I FINALLY got Mplayer installed correctly
[05:26] <SilentJihad> but I cant seem to figure how to install all the codecs and stuf
[05:26] <SilentJihad> f
[05:26] <nickrud> !codecs
[05:26] <ubotu> Binary only codecs (such as w32codecs) can be downloaded from plf or cipherfunk, see !easysource for details on these repositories
[05:26] <vars> !codecs
[05:26] <_jason> ubotu: tell SilentJihad about w32codecs
[05:26] <nena> olaaaaaaaaaaaa
[05:26] <vars> ahh
[05:26] <nena> de donde
[05:26] <graveson> fyrestrtr: i have that installed already ,which software would you recommend to  use then to copy
[05:26] <Rawplayer> m?
[05:26] <soundray> malverian[work] : avahi looks promising. Thanks for the hint.
[05:26] <k31th> anyone know of this webadmin front end like cpanel but free i think its a debian only project
[05:26] <JoeMorris> nickrud:  i have to reinstall dapper, as i tried suse 10.1 beta 8, they had the heads up on some stuff like the boot screen and the fit and finish is just a tad sharper, but dapper is catching up nicely
[05:27] <kahuna_> Hi. How can I get a list of installed packages from the command line?
[05:27] <JoeMorris> dapper is nicer in other respects
[05:27] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, mPlayer and VLC come with their own built in codecs
[05:27] <soundray> kahuna_: dpkg -l
[05:27] <refnumzx> cahuna: dpkg -l
[05:27] <JoeMorris> the 2 best distros tho are definitely suse and ubuntu IMHO, fedora really is losing the edge it had back in the days
[05:27] <vars> tristanmike, mplayer does not play .wma  files out of the box
[05:27] <fyrestrtr> k31th: webmin ?
[05:28] <kahuna_> that easy? I can't believe I missed that in the man page
[05:28] <nickrud> JoeMorris, I have a dapper partition I use some; #ubuntu+1 probably has more useful help for you
[05:28] <JoeMorris> ok
[05:28] <JoeMorris> thanks :)
[05:28] <tristanmike> vars, i never said it did, and .wma, pfft, use a better codec :P
[05:28] <JoeMorris> nickrud a few bugs so far tho, tried to load some stuff, it did weird stuff
[05:29] <soundray> kahuna_: if you only want the names, try dpkg -l | tr -s " " | cut -d " " -f 2
[05:29] <gogo_> How do i make windows the default operating system?
[05:29] <JoeMorris> nickrud:  im glad dapper was extended to june 1st
[05:29] <soundray> gogo_: with grub?
[05:29] <JoeMorris> should be nice by then
[05:29] <gogo_> how exactly?
[05:29] <kahuna_> soundray: just what I was looking for,
[05:29] <kahuna_> thanks man.
[05:30] <nickrud> JoeMorris, biggest but is I can't use my useless modem which works in breezy; when I have time to fix that (if possible) I'll probably switch to dapper as my primary
[05:30] <soundray> gogo_: I mean, are you using grub? Use the default option, point it to the Windows stanza by number.
[05:30] <dli> nickrud, what modem? in lspci?
[05:30] <phreak97> nickrud, i have an lg studioworks 700s
[05:30] <soundray> gogo_: find out the number by counting the title lines, starting with 0
[05:30] <phreak97> nickrud, i cant find the specs
[05:30] <fyrestrtr> wow Banshee really is the best music program for Linux. Surprised I haven't heard of it, but damn, its nice :D
[05:30] <gogo_> yes i'm using grub
[05:31] <soop> when are they going to make wifi simple? :P
[05:31] <fyrestrtr> its like iTunes -- *exactly* like iTunes
[05:31] <soundray> gogo_: I should say that I'm talking about the file /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:31] <nickrud> dli, 0000:01:0b.0 Communication controller: Lucent Microelectronics 56k WinModem (rev 01)
[05:31] <soop> my cards autodetected but i can't connect to shit
[05:31] <fyrestrtr> nickrud: linmodem.org -- try there.
[05:31] <gogo_> thanx soundray
[05:31] <dli> nickrud, I heard lucent wrote some drivers for linux
[05:31] <nickrud> fyrestrtr, I know, I've just got to find the time (I'm already behind on normal work today ;)
[05:31] <soundray> soop: everything becomes simple to use once the specs are out in the open. Unfortunately, that is a problem with wireless and certain other technologies
[05:32] <fyrestrtr> ah right okay then :)
[05:32] <Lorvija> hmm.. little ot but how much is 9th root of 2.5? :E
[05:32] <fyrestrtr> yeah and with this 'pre-n' stuff coming out, its another headache.
[05:32] <Lorvija> cant find any calculator which can do that... and mine is currently @ school :E
[05:32] <dli> nickrud, I just went through the modem nightmare in past weeks, eventually, I spent $20 CAN to buy a hardware external modem
[05:32] <phreak97> nickrud, got an email address i can get you on? i seriously am going to bed now
[05:33] <phreak97> it's 3am and im not terribly well
[05:33] <dli> Lorvija, 1.10717
[05:33] <soundray> gogo_: this is neat: 'grep ^title /boot/grub/menu.lst | nl -v 0' to see which boot stanza is which by number.
[05:33] <Lorvija> dli thanks
[05:33] <grout_> how do i get ubunut to boot off my serial ata drive?
[05:34] <dli> Lorvija, 1.107173178889911071584407654114979682576317695417535569208650836 , if it matters
[05:34] <grout_> its automatically sets the boot loader to my ide drive
[05:34] <Lorvija> dli heh thanks ;)
[05:34] <fyrestrtr> dli: how did you find out my bank balance!
[05:34] <fyrestrtr> damn, should change that pass.
[05:34] <soundray> grout_, install it with 'sudo grub-install /dev/sda', where /dev/sda is your SATA drive.
[05:35] <dli> fyrestrtr, poor you
[05:35] <Esco> what is "sudo:unable to lookup via gethost by name()"
[05:35] <dli> soundray, I think "setup" in grub command line is still recommended over grub --install
[05:35] <fyrestrtr> Esco: when running what command?
[05:35] <nickrud> dli, I'll probably go that route. I miss motherboards with isa slots, I have a fine internal hardware modem.
[05:35] <phreak97> nickrud, i wrote down your nick and im pming you my email address, email me your own address..
[05:35] <Esco> sudo
[05:35] <fyrestrtr> Esco: sudo what?
[05:36] <grout_> soundray: when do i type the sudo-grub install in?
[05:36] <soundray> Esco: what's the point of asking a question if you ignore the replies?
[05:36] <dli> nickrud, do you have serial port?
[05:36] <MrCollins> why does it say if we have a linksys or netgear router for a firmware update?
[05:36] <g0dchild> !xchat
[05:36] <ubotu> hmm... xchat is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/XChatHowto http://www.xchat.org/

[05:36] <Esco> look here http://pastebin.com/618193

[05:37] <MrCollins> I want to setup a ftp server, can ubuntu do this easily?
[05:37] <fyrestrtr> but there are links to programs that do that on the wiki
[05:37] <alfonso> hi, does dd give any output while its running?
[05:37] <fyrestrtr> MrCollins: yes.
[05:38] <MrCollins> ok.
[05:38] <FliesLikeABrick> MrCollins sudo apt-get install vsftpd then edit /etc/vsftpd.conf and sudo /etc/init.d/vsftpd restart
[05:38] <graveson> can anyone help me copy a dvd ,i have intalled libdvdcss ,but still getting errors
[05:38] <MrCollins> im gonna install ubuntu on a box..
[05:38] <dli> nickrud, if so, you may try the model I bought, Actiontec EX560LKU , USB/Serial, it works for me in ubuntu
[05:38] <MrCollins> its just for pictures of family and friends..
[05:38] <soundray> graveson, some DVDs have more sophisticated copy protection than CSS.
[05:38] <FliesLikeABrick> k MrCollins  so save that instruction for later or be prepared to ask again ;)
[05:38] <MrCollins> ok thanks FliesLikeABrick
[05:39] <Esco> fyrestrtr:??

[05:40] <Esco> in the network options i delete the name from the networkcard
[05:40] <fyrestrtr> don't type sudo.
[05:40] <dli> Esco, a wrong hostname or DNS not available
[05:40] <SilentJihad> ok i tried to install with the directions from the website but it dosetn work
[05:40] <fyrestrtr> Esco: what is the output of ifconfig eth0
[05:41] <Esco> wrong hostname
[05:41] <SilentJihad> that giant line of code i typed in the concel but it didnt work
[05:41] <_jason> !doesn't work
[05:41] <ubotu> doesn't work is, like, something you should never say.  Be more specific.
[05:41] <UH^MERLIN> you have to use
[05:41] <Esco> the output i dont now
[05:41] <UH^MERLIN> Synaptic @ Silent
[05:41] <UH^MERLIN> install the packages
[05:41] <UH^MERLIN> reload them
[05:41] <soundray> graveson: there is no movie that can't be copied by filming it off the TV screen ;)
[05:41] <r0bby> xexi, DO NOT MESSAGE ME.
[05:41] <UH^MERLIN> then it works
[05:41] <Esco> dli:wrong hostname

[05:45] <_jason> SilentJihad: paste exactly what you entered

[05:53] <fyrestrtr> oh thanks Amaranth
[05:54] <fyrestrtr> Ohm: eclipse, kdevelop
[05:54] <Amaranth> wasn't me
[05:54] <Ohm> eclipse is for JAVA, isn't?
[05:54] <rafal> siema
[05:54] <eyequeue> the router, i've got a couple of them remotely deployed (hence fw upgrades are non-trivial) .. how bad is this hole that i presume exists?
[05:54] <fyrestrtr> Ohm: you can use it for C also with the appropriate plugin
[05:54] <g0dchild> ok, worthawholebean , the funniest thing- i remember installing a firewall trying to tinker with dnsmasq....now i caNT find the executable for the firewall...so i ma gonna install kmyfirewall and see if i can get it right once more

[05:55] <Ohm> fyrestrtr,  I have the eclipse installed, how can I install the plugin for C++?
[05:55] <fyrestrtr> Ohm: find one on the internet, then follow the install instructions.
[05:56] <cwoods> join #ubuntu
[05:57] <ompaul> cwoods, your there already
[05:57] <fyrestrtr> you are already there
[05:57] <eyequeue> cwoods: it worked, you're here ;)
[05:57] <cwoods> yep
[05:57] <cwoods> I am having some apt-get difficulties
[05:57] <fyrestrtr> Ohm: I use eclipse for java, c, c++, php and python
[05:57] <eyequeue> cwoods: ask
[05:57] <fyrestrtr> !ask
[05:58] <Ohm> fyrestrtr,  I will try install the plugin
[05:58] <fyrestrtr> gl Ohm :)
[05:58] <cwoods> I installed webmin from a tarball and now I am getting "E: The package webmin needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it."
[05:58] <cwoods> when running apt-get install [app]
[05:59] <dli> cwoods, I heard nobody should use webmin, unless it's not on public net
[05:59] <eyequeue> cwoods: what does 'apt-get install webmin' tell you?
[06:00] <fyrestrtr> cwoods: any reason you didn't use apt-get to install webmin?
[06:00] <cwoods> sudo apt-get install webmin
[06:00] <cwoods> Reading package lists... Done
[06:00] <cwoods> Building dependency tree... Done
[06:00] <cwoods> E: The package webmin needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[06:00] <eyequeue> cwoods: i'm presuming your /etc/apt/sources.list is good, of course start there if it is not
[06:00] <eyequeue> soundray: ;)
[06:00] <Ohm> fyrestrtr, You remenber where you found the plugin?
[06:00] <bosco> so what is u p
[06:01] <cwoods> yes it is good, and I am not sure why I did it from the tarball
[06:01] <eyequeue> !sources.list
[06:01] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[06:01] <akin_to> do you know where i can find downloaded files from update manager?
[06:01] <fyrestrtr> Ohm: eclipse-plugins.net or something like that.
[06:01] <akin_to> do you know where i can find downloaded files from update manager?
[06:01] <soundray> akin_to: /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:01] <akin_to> tnx
[06:01] <Ohm> fyrestrtr,  thanks
[06:02] <eyequeue> cwoods: sudo apt-get update, before the install command, just in case
[06:03] <eyequeue> cwoods: the 'can't find an archive for it' syntax is new to me
[06:03] <mikebot> how do i open the tutorial in emacs?
[06:03] <cwoods> yes I did try that prior to install
[06:03] <thefish_> fsckkkkk
[06:03] <soundray> akin_to: I don't know -- I would try 'sudo apt-get install wine'
[06:04] <eyequeue> mikebot: it's been a long time since i ued it, but the opening screen always mentione it, i thought
[06:05] <alekz> Can someone explain me why i have this problem? virus@home:~$ sudo -i
[06:05] <alekz> sudo: must be setuid root
[06:06] <bosco> i know the new dapper comes out this april so is it april 1 when ?
[06:06] <alekz> bosco, it'll come on june
[06:06] <soundray> !dapper
[06:06] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[06:06] <eyequeue> bosco: i believe the date was pushed back 6 weeks for testing
[06:06] <bosco> eyequeue, thank you cuZ i rhought i herd april but thanks
[06:06] <bosco> i will check into it
[06:06] <bosco> again
[06:07] <viller> i installed vim-gnome but how can i execute it? I tried vim-gnome in the terminal, but it doesn't work
[06:07] <soundray> alekz: to fix this, you will have to boot in recovery mode and run 'chmod u+s /usr/bin/sudo'
[06:07] <eyequeue> bosco: the normal date was april, but this is a one-time thing
[06:07] <alekz> soundray, why i have that problem ?
[06:07] <soundray> alekz: any idea how you got into this situation?
[06:08] <bosco> eyequeue,  that is all good i would rather have it work more out of the box and not have to mess with it anyways
[06:08] <alekz> soundray, i enabled root account, maybe that ?
[06:08] <soundray> alekz: if you enabled the root account, you can fix it without booting into recovery. Just run chmod u+s /usr/bin/sudo as root.
[06:08] <Alexi5> hello guys
[06:09] <eyequeue> bosco: yeah, we're looking for "perfection" on this one
[06:09] <soundray> alekz, perhaps check permissions on the file before and after with ls -l. They should be -rwsr-xr-x
[06:09] <Alexi5> i have a laptop with a intel 1.66GHZ centrino duo processor
[06:09] <bosco> eyequeue,  yup yup so i have heard much better than the last one
[06:09] <bosco> than breezy
[06:09] <soundray> Alexi5: congratulations
[06:09] <Alexi5> i want to know if ubuntu can work on it
[06:09] <alekz> ok soundray thanks
[06:09] <fyrestrtr> yes
[06:10] <eyequeue> that's the goal, though imo breezy has been quite good anyway
[06:10] <bosco> eyequeue,  do you know what some of the new things might be or does anyone know
[06:10] <bosco> in dapper
[06:10] <eyequeue> yeah, i know there's a page on it, but am drawing a blank, does anyone know offhand?
[06:10] <bosco> eyequeue,  i will look it up thanks
[06:10] <bosco> though
[06:10] <bosco> lol'
[06:10] <cwoods> eyequeue: any other suggestions for my apt-get problem?
[06:10] <eyequeue> bosco: if no one chimes in soon, search for Dapper in ubuntuforums
[06:11] <bosco> eyequeue,  will do will do
[06:11] <eyequeue> cwoods: no sorry, id say 'apt-get --reinstall install webmin' but that 'can't find an archive thing would probably prevent that
[06:12] <Mr_Morden> anyone runs WoW on Ubuntu?
[06:12] <eyequeue> cwoods: this is brute force, but can you try to manually eliminate any trace of webmin, then start over with that command?
[06:13] <malverian[work] > Someone wanted me?
[06:13] <cwoods> eyequeue: ok thanks
[06:13] <eyequeue> cwoods: actually, first, paste me the last line (only) of the following output
[06:13] <eyequeue> cwoods: dpkg -l webmin
[06:13] <soundray> malverian[work] : I said thanks for the pointer towards avahi a while ago.
[06:14] <malverian[work] > soundray, No problem.
[06:14] <eyequeue> cwoods: or rather the one line that talks about webmin, not webmin-something
[06:15] <munsa_> Hello, can anyone help me with Mplayer? I downloaded the Mplayer after 2 days i finally got it to work (Compiled from source) I installed the Codecs pack just now but It dosent seem to help, I have sound but no video

[06:15] <eyequeue> cwoods: what i get here is: ii  webmin         1.230-1        web-based administration toolkit

[06:17] <ubotu> methinks pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar ,
[06:17] <mackyman> And on another site:

[06:18] <cwoods> eyequeue: that is why I was kicked
[06:18] <eyequeue> cwoods: but anyway, you seem to have a version newer than i do, and i'm on dapper, so what gives there?
[06:18] <cwoods> eyequeue: well the latest tarball was 1.26
[06:18] <alekz> i want that a command be performed at startup how can i do it ?
[06:18] <snowblink> mackyman, man 5 crontab
[06:18] <mackyman> ok
[06:19] <munsa_> soundray :: this is what I get from mplayer -vo help
[06:19] <munsa_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10689
[06:19] <cwoods> eyequeue: gotta run to a meeting thanks for the help so far.
[06:19] <kedaeus> Could anyone explain to me why I can't install Anjuta-1.2.4? "*** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop."
[06:19] <Xenguy> alekz: in GNOME, look for submenu Sessions
[06:19] <eyequeue> cwoods: here's what i get some "apt-cache show webmin"    Filename: pool/universe/w/webmin/webmin_1.230-1_all.deb
[06:19] <eyequeue> cwoods: good luck, gotta run too
[06:19] <kedaeus> It's actually.. obviousl.. But I dunno where to go from there. :)
[06:20] <alekz> let me check Xenguy
[06:20] <soundray> munsa_: okay, then try running 'mplayer -vo gl yourvideo.wmv'
[06:20] <cwoods> eyequeue: crap I used alien to install the rpm, my bad
[06:20] <mackyman> Thanks snowblink
[06:20] <eyequeue> cwoods: gotcha
[06:21] <mackyman> Then it's incorrect in the unofficial ubuntuguide
[06:21] <munsa_> soundray
[06:21] <eyequeue> cwoods: maybe rpm --whatever to remove, and then apt-get install?
[06:21] <munsa_> just sound
[06:21] <eyequeue> cwoods: if you don'thave any version specific dire needs
[06:22] <alekz> Xenguy, but i want that the command start when the computer turns on
[06:22] <soundray> munsa_: maybe it's a WMV9 -- I don't think there's a codec for mplayer that plays that. Do you have an mpeg you can try?
[06:22] <Xenguy> alekz: what command?
[06:22] <alekz> Xenguy, a darkbot
[06:22] <_jason> soundray: w32codecs will play wmv9
[06:23] <Xenguy> alekz: no idea what that is
[06:23] <munsa_> humm, I think that my codecs did not install
[06:23] <soundray> munsa_: I stand corrected, thanks _jason.
[06:23] <alekz> 10x anyway Xenguy
[06:23] <munsa_> I am sure they downloaded but apparently they didnt install...
[06:23] <alekz> can someone tell me how to add a command to start when my pc turns on ?
[06:23] <timon> ubuntu laggs for me every 2sec for a millisec, dosent matter what i do screensaver or scrolling in fire fox, but i have no lagg when playing q4
[06:24] <kedaeus> Heh..
[06:24] <soundray> alekz: add it to /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh
[06:24] <alekz> thanks soundray
[06:24] <jeekl> Hi! Could someone help me with this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=836759
[06:24] <soundray> alekz: or put a script in /etc/network/if-up.d/ if it depends on the network.
[06:25] <munsa_> _jason, I downloaded the codecs from the website, they downloaded for a while, I assumed they installed correctly but I guess they didnt...  This is what I get when I run  the file
[06:25] <munsa_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10690
[06:26] <_jason> munsa_: did you install mplayer from the repositories?
[06:26] <munsa_> no
[06:26] <munsa_> from source
[06:26] <munsa_> _jason should I remove this and install from the repositorieS?
[06:26] <_jason> munsa_: that would be easiest
[06:26] <munsa_> because Gmplayer lockes up everytime I try and use it too
[06:27] <munsa_> how do I remove it?
[06:27] <_jason> munsa_: did you use checkinstall to install it?
[06:27] <munsa_> yea
[06:27] <munsa_> _jason yea I used checkinstall
[06:27] <_jason> munsa_: search for mplayer in synaptic and remove it (or aptitude if you prefer)

[06:40] <varmint> works fine I think...
[06:41] <apokryphos> grout_: /msg ubotu grub
[06:41] <potto> Another question for you pro's, how can i extract .RAR?
[06:41] <_jason> !rar
[06:41] <ubotu> somebody said rar was a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FileCompression
[06:41] <cyphase> i hate when people say stuff like "SIP-based"
[06:42] <cyphase> is it using SIP, or is it a protocol that looks like SIP
[06:42] <oskari> #ubuntu-fi
[06:42] <soundray> jeekl: synaptic stores its proxy settings under /root/.synaptic/ -- that shouldn't affect apt at all. Did you change anything under /etc/apt?
[06:42] <cyphase> *sigh*
[06:42] <potto> thanks _jason
[06:43] <jeekl> soundray: No, I didn't do a thing with apt. And my lack of a apt-conf file also alerts me some. Should I have one?
[06:43] <eobanb> cyphase, you're referring to the new yahoo messenger?
[06:43] <varmint> sry must go, bye all.
[06:43] <cyphase> eobanb, yea
[06:43] <eobanb> heh.
[06:44] <cyphase> eobanb, i realize it's probably using SIP
[06:44] <cyphase> but it's not always the case
[06:44] <eobanb> probably.
[06:44] <eobanb> right
[06:44] <eobanb> cyphase, apple's ichat uses SIP but that doesnt mean it inter-operates with other stuff
[06:44] <soundray> jeekl: there is no apt-conf file. There should be a directory of conffiles called /etc/apt/apt.conf.d though.
[06:44] <cyphase> eobanb, yea..
[06:44] <jeekl> soundray: IU have one of those :-)
[06:44] <lperezf> hola
[06:44] <jeekl> Should be I have
[06:45] <grout_> can u install ubuntu from the live cd's?
[06:45] <cyphase> :P
[06:45] <boogieman> Hello all, I need your help. I'm new to Ubuntu (Breezy); installed skype and it's having very ugly fonts, i googled and found out about this post : http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-69459.html which is similar to my problem. However the steps didn't work for me.
[06:45] <cyphase> grout_, with Dapper you can
[06:45] <cyphase> grout_, Dapper is the next version of ubuntu
[06:45] <grout_> so how do i change grub if i cant get into the system?
[06:46] <cyphase> boot into a live cd and change the config file
[06:46] <apokryphos> Grout58: you're going to have to use a LiveCD
[06:46] <cyphase> what happened to it?
[06:46] <soundray> grout_, didn't it say on the wiki page you got from ubotu earlier?
[06:46] <soundray> !tell grout_ about grub
[06:46] <soundray> grout_, you can reinstall grub from the install CD.
[06:47] <grout_> yes but how do i tell it to go to the sata drive and not hda
[06:48] <soundray> jeekl: this is hard to diagnose remotely. Do you want to try a blind fix?
[06:48] <cyphase> grout_, just load the live cd, then go to System -> Administration -> Disks
[06:48] <grout_> after i install the base system right?
[06:49] <jeekl> soundray: A blind fix? What would that be? I have a openssh-server installed if you want to meddle with my system.
[06:49] <soundray> jeekl: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure apt'
[06:49] <cyphase> grout_, what are you talking about?
[06:50] <soundray> jeekl: don't offer people on IRC a login on your system, it's not safe.
[06:50] <cyphase> grout_, do you want to fix grub, or do you want to reinstall ubuntu?
[06:50] <kedaeus> :)
[06:50] <jeekl> soundray: Okey, I'll try that.
[06:50] <Centurion_[Roger> Hallo, people! :) Tell me anybody plz why KDM might not start on system start? Breezy Badger 2.6.13
[06:50] <grout_> can i pm you?
[06:50] <cyphase> ok
[06:50] <jeekl> soundray: I know it's not safe, but someone who puts that much effort into helping me is trustworthy. And i change my passwords quite often...
[06:51] <soundray> grout_, cyphase, can you invite me?
[06:51] <cyphase> soundray, invite you?
[06:51] <cyphase> it's a pm..
[06:51] <cyphase> we could go into some channel
[06:52] <jeekl> soundray: did a reconfig, problem still there though.
[06:52] <ZyLoR> hi guys.. i have a problem when i try to get ubuntu live 64bits edition to work with my computer...it won't detect my grpahic card and gives a error that can't run graphical interface because of it... i have: amd 64 3500+ 1Gb DDR400, a nForce 4 SLI and a Ati Radeon x550 256Mb PCI-E when i start the live cd it won't let me try it because the erro that appears is: " Ubuntu can't start X server (graphical display...)."

[06:53] <grout_> lets just go into a channel
[06:53] <kedaeus> Lol..  :P
[06:53] <epinephrine> eep
[06:53] <soundray> jeekl: just be a bit suspicious, it makes good sense.
[06:53] <humbolt> How can I best run windows apps on my ubuntu breezy?
[06:53] <humbolt> Wine sort of sucks!
[06:53] <ZyLoR> can anyone help me please?
[06:53] <ZyLoR> :(
[06:53] <Centurion_[Roger> repeat: telll me anybody plz why KDM might not start on system start? Breezy Badger 2.6.13
[06:53] <epinephrine> humbolt: vmware or qemu
[06:53] <grout_> cyphase: go into the chanel #grout
[06:53] <jeekl> soundray: I'm not a total newb, I think I would notice if you tried compiling rootkits into my kernel or something like that ;-)
[06:53] <ccc_> Centurion_[Roger: maybe you should update it to the current kde version, if it's not already up to date.
[06:53] <soundray> jeekl: you could try the following:
[06:54] <humbolt> How does VMware work? Is there a way, I can use my existing WinXP partition?
[06:54] <cyphase> grout_, #cyphase :P
[06:54] <cyphase> soundray is there
[06:54] <Centurion_[Roger> ZyLoR: try vmware
[06:54] <ZyLoR> men
[06:54] <epinephrine> you can boot from a real partition, but I wouldn't recommend it
[06:54] <ZyLoR> i'm new @ linux
[06:54] <ZyLoR> :(
[06:54] <notre12> noter 12
[06:54] <ZyLoR> how do i use it?
[06:54] <humbolt> epinephrine: what is qemu?
[06:54] <ZyLoR> Centurion_[Roger
[06:54] <epinephrine> similar to vmware
[06:55] <epinephrine> just open source, free and a bit slower and harder to setup
[06:55] <Centurion_[Roger> ccc_: it is up to date
[06:55] <soundray> jeekl: you could try a purge and reinstall of apt. That's a bit involved, though...
[06:55] <humbolt> epinephrine: is it from the same software company but the scaled down free version?
[06:55] <boogieman> Hello all, I need your help. I'm new to Ubuntu (Breezy); installed skype and it's having very ugly fonts, i googled and found out about this post : http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-69459.html which is similar to my problem. However the steps didn't work for me.

[07:00] <boogieman> Can some one pls. help me? Anybody :) ??
[07:01] <soundray> !helpme
[07:01] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[07:01] <soundray> ^^ I like this one ;)
[07:01] <boogieman> Well, i have being asking the question for sometime
[07:01] <boogieman> Hello all, I need your help. I'm new to Ubuntu (Breezy); installed skype and it's having very ugly fonts, i googled and found out about this post : http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-69459.html which is similar to my problem. However the steps didn't work for me.
[07:02] <jeekl> soundray: hehe, Thanks. One thing though: 'sudo dpkg --purge apt ; sudo dpkg -i /safe/place/apt*' got me thinking... I've never used purge before, what would be a safe place to install apt into?
[07:02] <ViRuSaKe> can anynoe help me ?
[07:02] <Amaranth> jeekl: don't uninstall apt
[07:03] <ViRuSaKe> *anyone
[07:03] <Amaranth> ViRuSaKe: Please ask a question.
[07:03] <ViRuSaKe> how should i get the permissions to read hdd`s in ubuntu ?
[07:03] <soundray> jeekl: you install apt in the usual place. My suggestion is to move its archive out of the cache dir before you purge, because the cache dir may get removed during the purge.
[07:03] <potto> Can anyone help me with some Firefox problems? it feels like my Firefox is out of date.. i get a heck load of pop-ups and i can't get flash to work quite right
[07:04] <Amaranth> ViRuSaKe: Tring to mount a windows partition?
[07:04] <jmorris1> !fixres
[07:04] <ubotu> Please read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[07:04] <soundray> jeekl: then, when you install apt again with a "fresh" configuration, you know that the archive is still there. Know what I'm saying?
[07:04] <GigaClon> potto, what verson
[07:04] <ViRuSaKe> they are allready mounted but i don`t have the permission to view them
[07:04] <Amaranth> !ntfs
[07:04] <ubotu> ntfs is, like, the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[07:04] <Amaranth> ViRuSaKe: That link shows you how to mount them so you can view them.
[07:05] <potto> GigaClon: 1.0.7
[07:05] <jenda> What are the amazing thing I can do if I now have two 100% Ubuntu PCs, one of which is a laptop? :)
[07:05] <oskude> boogieman, i remember seeing something in forums, sec ill try to find it...
[07:05] <_jason> jenda: juggly them would be amazing
[07:05] <_jason> jenda: s/juggly/juggling
[07:05] <jeekl> soundray: Be right back. Give me ten minutes. ;-)
[07:05] <soundray> jeekl: got my fingers crossed ;)
[07:06] <jenda> _jason: Aughta try that... damn, dropped my laptop on top of my desktop ... (too many tops)
[07:06] <soundray> grout58: still here?
[07:06] <GigaClon> potto, stop vistiting sites with popups ;)
[07:06] <GigaClon> or check your option in the popup blocker
[07:06] <ViRuSaKe> Amaranth  but they are mounted
[07:07] <boogieman> oskude: thanks
[07:07] <potto> GigaClon, gah :P
[07:07] <Amaranth> ViRuSaKe: But they aren't mounted correctly, read that page.
[07:07] <bohors> hello
[07:07] <ViRuSaKe> by the way i did something bad :( i activated the root login option
[07:07] <potto> GigaClon, what about flash then? some flash sites are kinda messed up
[07:07] <_jason> ubotu: tell ViRuSaKe about root
[07:07] <soundray> jenda: a fun thing to find out is if you can wake one with the other (ethtool, etherwake).
[07:08] <jmorris1> can someone help me fix my monitor res
[07:08] <jenda> wow, that's cool :)
[07:08] <ViRuSaKe> and i typed the command: sudo -R username /
[07:08] <jmorris1> in the existing file it has this:
[07:08] <jmorris1> Section "Monitor"
[07:08] <jmorris1>         Identifier      "Generic Monitor"

[07:09] <jmorris1> ok anyways
[07:09] <jmorris1> i got the correct numbers
[07:09] <Esco1234> -jason:yes i try but it did not work
[07:09] <jmorris1> do i change the monitor type
[07:09] <soundray> jenda: also check out rsync and unison for syncing the homedirs between the pair.
[07:09] <jmorris1> or just keep it with generic monitor but change the #s
[07:09] <_jason> Esco1234: what do you mean by didn't work?
[07:10] <ViRuSaKe> Amaranth so can u help me fix the problem or not ?
[07:10] <Amaranth> jmorris1: change the numbers
[07:10] <_jason> Esco1234: your pastebin still appears to have the old /etc/hosts
[07:10] <Amaranth> ViRuSaKe: Follow that guide.
[07:10] <Amaranth> ViRuSaKe: That's all you have to do.
[07:10] <ViRuSaKe> yes but i did something bad also
[07:10] <Esco1234> i make what you tell me,but the same mistake came "sudo unable to lookup via get host by name()

[07:11] <_jason> Esco1234: what do the first lines in/etc/hosts and /etc/hostname look like now?
[07:11] <Guard] [an> hello
[07:11] <Amaranth> jmorris1: first is horizontal
[07:11] <Guard] [an> i can't wait for dapper official release :)
[07:11] <ViRuSaKe> also sudo doesn`t work anymore is user mode
[07:11] <soundray> jmorris1: horizontal is fast, vertical is slow
[07:11] <Esco1234> hostname its ubuntu
[07:11] <oskude> boogieman, try this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=76633
[07:11] <Amaranth> ViRuSaKe: I don't know about that. I leave sudo and root alone.
[07:12] <jmorris1> soundray so then the 2nd one is horizontal?
[07:12] <jmorris1> its faster
[07:12] <Esco1234> and hosts its <IP_ADDRESS> localhost.localadmin localhost ubuntu
[07:12] <soundray> jmorris1: no, look at the units.
[07:12] <_jason> Esco1234: try rebooting
[07:12] <soundray> jmorris1: the k means a factor of 1000
[07:12] <jmorris1> oh
[07:12] <jmorris1> gotcha
[07:12] <sfar-ubu> is it possible to save my panel/background/desklet-settings etc when i later upgrade from breezy to dapper?
[07:12] <Esco1234> yes i done it bus it doesnt work

[07:13] <oskude> boogieman, but i remember seeing a simpler method, but cant find it anymore... (or i recall incorrect)
[07:13] <_jason> Esco1234: are you sure there is not typo anywhere? get rid of any stray characters like newlines in /etc/hostname
[07:13] <soundray> sfar-ubu: they will remain untouched.
[07:13] <sfar-ubu> ah
[07:13] <boogieman> oskude: thanks again. I'll try this method and let you know

[07:21] <rend> soundray: everything was working fine till i rebooted
[07:21] <ViRuSaKe> it sounds like this: Your $HOME/.dmrc file has incorrect permissions and is being ignored.This prevents the default session and language for being saved.File should be owned by user and have 644 permissions
[07:21] <jeekl> soundray: Back. A friend came over to get some stuff. Back ontrack now. dpkg is giving me dependecy errors when trying to uninstallm apt, should I force it?
[07:21] <_jason> kedaeus: it will install kde
[07:22] <kedaeus> _jason: Woot! :)
[07:22] <zaibiechu> if i want to write a c program, to comple it which package should i install
[07:22] <pder> can ubuntu be installed on a computer?
[07:22] <_jason> ViRuSaKe: might want to wait for someone with more experience to help you out.  I don't know what would be the best course of action for you
[07:22] <polpak> _jason, actually, I'm wrong. Everything in / except the users home directories is owned by root
[07:22] <kedaeus> pder: No it has to be installed in a toaster.
[07:22] <ViRuSaKe> ok _jason
[07:22] <soundray> rend, I don't have an answer for you atm. Please ask the channel again.
[07:22] <avu> zaibiechu: build-essential gives you the basics
[07:22] <ViRuSaKe> but don`t tell me i have to install it again
[07:23] <soundray> jeekl: you can safely force it, because you are going to reinstall it again in a minute.
[07:23] <avu> zaibiechu: depending on what you want to write it may be more or less than you need but it's a good start in every case
[07:23] <_jason> ViRuSaKe: well try chown'ing / back to root.  Then just chown /home/virus to virus
[07:23] <polpak> ViRuSaKe, I'd suggest using a LiveCD or boot into recovery mode, then chown -R root /
[07:23] <zaibiechu> no stdio.h
[07:23] <polpak> ViRuSaKe, then chown -R virus /home/virus
[07:23] <jeekl> soundray: right, issuing it now... Trying apt-get update...
[07:23] <jeekl> soundray: No.
[07:24] <avu> zaibiechu: after installing build-essential? sure?
[07:24] <soundray> jeekl: to early. apt-get update will only work once you've installed apt again...
[07:24] <soundray> *too
[07:24] <rend> soundray i just reran the installer and it worked fine.. maybe ill try to fix it again on next reboot (next month) ;)
[07:24] <jeekl> soundray: apt is installed: sudo dpkg --force-all --purge apt; sudo dpkg -i /home/jeff/apt_<IP_ADDRESS>ubuntu9_i386.deb
[07:25] <zaibiechu> avu, it sayes i don't have stdio.h
[07:25] <avu> zaibiechu: did you install build-essential?
[07:25] <marcow> hi
[07:25] <jmorris1> ok i fixed the res and installed the ati driver, the right one i assume was the regular file not the server one right?
[07:25] <zaibiechu> avu, no let me have a try,ths
[07:26] <jmorris1> system seems faster
[07:26] <soundray> jeekl: still 404 errors?
[07:26] <ViRuSaKe> ok i will try
[07:26] <ViRuSaKe> brb
[07:26] <jeekl> soundray: Yeah... Could it be something with my resolv or something like that?
[07:26] <marcow> i've got a soundcard named "Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller ". and when i play some music, in the brackground there are always some "klicks"... has anyone an idea what is wrong?
[07:27] <soundray> jeekl: let's think this through from the beginning.
[07:27] <jeekl> soundray: Sure.
[07:27] <elad`> I have to "ping www.google.com" and use the IP address I get there, I can't directly type "www.google.com" into firefox (and this server into x-chat) and be connected. Help?
[07:27] <jmorris1> soundray:  For ATI radeon 9200, the appropriate driver was the non server one right?
[07:27] <jmorris1> seems to work nicely :)
[07:28] <elad`> How do I correctly configure my DNS servers?
[07:28] <soundray> jeekl: 404 errors normally come from a web server. They could come from a proxy, too. So let's make sure your apt isn't still somehow set up for a proxy.
[07:28] <polpak> elad`, you don't have your DNS servers messed up somehow. Though I don't see how you'd be able to use ping either
[07:28] <tom44> salut  tous
[07:28] <soundray> jmorris1: I'm the wrong person to ask.
[07:28] <polpak> elad`, err you do have them messed up I mean
[07:28] <soundray> Salut tom44

[07:30] <springer> i need to info about repository for synaptic on-line
[07:30] <oskude> boogieman, nice
[07:30] <elad`> So, how do I correct my DNS servers? Where's the appropriate file?
[07:30] <jeekl> soundray: Yes, I blanked all the lines.
[07:30] <_jason> Esco: go ahead
[07:30] <zaibiechu> polpak, sorry i copy those in ~/.vimrc but it does not work,can you help me
[07:30] <polpak> elad`, /etc/resolv.conf, Or you can do it in System->Administration->Networking
[07:31] <Esco> jason:my router works with dhcp but i dont became a ip
[07:31] <soundray> jeekl: what, in synaptic?
[07:31] <polpak> zaibiechu, you can pastebin the file if you like
[07:31] <_jason> Esco: ah don't know about that, someone else in the channel will probably help you out in a bit
[07:31] <jeekl> soundray: Yes, in synaptic, the lines for proxy use. I blanked the lines and unchecked it
[07:31] <Esco> jason:ok thanks
[07:31] <Esco> hello erverybody i have a problem with dhcp
[07:31] <MacSlow> Can someone tell me how to get OpenOffice 2.0.2 to render itself using the native theme-style? Currently it looks like a plain win95 program under Dapper.
[07:32] <soundray> jeekl: did you set it to "Direct connection..."?
[07:32] <MacSlow> I remember a OO 2.x beta to nicely integrate with the default gtk+ look and feel.
[07:32] <jeekl> soundray: Yes, that's what I meant by unchecked it. Sorry for being fuzzy.
[07:32] <MacSlow> Sofar I've not found any option in the menus that hints me to get this native look-and-feel back.
[07:33] <oskude> MacSlow, dapper is in #ubuntu+1
[07:33] <jmorris1> how do i traceroute from ubuntu?
[07:33] <MacSlow> ups... oskude sorry
[07:33] <elad`> I'm trying to add them, but, well, it isn't working. Should I reboot?
[07:33] <soundray> jeekl: what does synaptic say when you hit Reload?
[07:33] <RageMax> MacSlow: might want to just download the RPMs from the OO website, that's what I'm running and it's fine
[07:33] <jmorris1> is it installed on default?
[07:33] <jeekl> soundray: /root/.synaptic/synaptic.conf shows:   useProxy "0";
[07:33] <zaibiechu> avu, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10692
[07:33] <Esco> hey how can i get an ip with dhcp??
[07:33] <toxic_> hi, can anyone help me with acpi. It seems that some events aren't being triggered, and yet there are event specified in /etc/acpi/events. For instance there is a close-lid script there that doesn't run when I close the lid.
[07:34] <zaibiechu> avu, could you help me
[07:34] <zaibiechu> to run c program just in vim
[07:34] <jeekl> soundray: Fail and 404. Like apt.
[07:35] <avu> zaibiechu: I don't really use vim for stuff like that. But the guys in #vim may be able to help you there
[07:35] <elad`> How do I reboot my internet connection thingies without rebooting the computer?
[07:35] <soundray> jeekl: for sanity, could you check that no proxies are set in /etc/wgetrc pls?
[07:35] <jmorris1> dang traceroute had to be added
[07:35] <Blippe> elad`, sudo /etc/init.d/network restart
[07:35] <jmorris1> why isnt traceroute installed by default?
[07:35] <toxic_> jmorris1, try tracepath
[07:35] <mikebot> anyone know how to open the tutorial in emacs?
[07:35] <jmorris1> doesnt make sense :P its so basic
[07:35] <elad`> sudo /etc/init.d/network restart
[07:35] <jmorris1> oh
[07:35] <elad`> em
[07:36] <elad`> sudo: /etc/init.d/network: command not found
[07:36] <jmorris1> tracepath is installed?
[07:36] <MacSlow> RageMax, you meant .debs I assume :)
[07:36] <sfar-ubu> what does this (error thingy) mean:
[07:36] <sfar-ubu> sfar@ububox:/$ mount | grep hda1
[07:36] <sfar-ubu> /dev/hda1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
[07:36] <toxic_> jmorris1, in breezy it is
[07:36] <jmorris1> gotcha
[07:36] <jeekl> soundray: #use_proxy = on
[07:36] <jmorris1> i guess it was outdated
[07:36] <Top|Work> not sudo: just sudo /etc/init.d/network
[07:36] <jmorris1> i like traceroute :-)
[07:36] <Esco> i dont get an ip with dhcp can someone help me?
[07:36] <toxic_> :D
[07:36] <RageMax> MacSlow: no, I mean RPMs, that's what they're distributed as when you download the zip
[07:36] <toxic_> Esco, are you connected to a DHCP server ?
[07:37] <jmorris1> you were right
[07:37] <RageMax> you can use both RPM and apt on the same system
[07:37] <MacSlow> RageMax, well... just found a .deb at oo.org and will try that.
[07:37] <elad`> I changed that to "networking", but still, nothing's fixed, and I'm still connected here somehow.
[07:37] <jmorris1> might as well have traceroute :-)
[07:37] <toxic_> jmorris1, hehe ok
[07:37] <Esco> Toxic:no to a router
[07:37] <toxic_> Esco, the router must be set to hand out dhcp ip, have you configuered in the router interface ? Then you can just type dhclient3 to obtain a new ip.
[07:38] <elad`> Shit - when I did that "restart" thing, my /etc/resolv.conf was wiped clean. How do I keep that from happening?
[07:38] <soundray> jeekl: try wget on the commandline and give it one of the failed urls from your apt-get update run.
[07:38] <Blippe> elad`, stop using dhcp?
[07:38] <toxic_> Esco, of course, initally try and ping your router to make sure you can access it at all.
[07:38] <sfar-ubu> if i open the gnu menu from the panel, and then press printscreen.. the menu doesn't appear in the screenshot.. how can i make it visible? :)
[07:38] <sfar-ubu> gnu=gnome
[07:38] <soundray> jeekl: eg. http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/breezy-backports/multiverse/source/Sources.gz
[07:38] <elad`> Blippe, walk me through it?
[07:39] <Esco> toxic:when i ping my router "Network is unreachable"
[07:39] <C-O-L-T> where to get w32coecs?
[07:39] <Blippe> ok, you don't stop using dhcp, because that is how you get your ip-address... (if you don't have static)
[07:39] <_jason> !w32codecs
[07:39] <ubotu> I heard w32codecs is a compilation of binary win32 A/V codecs for many popular proprietary formats not currently supported by free implementations under linux. See http://tinyurl.com/e4a5s to install
[07:39] <toxic_> hi, can anyone help me with acpi. It seems that some events aren't being triggered, and yet there are event specified in /etc/acpi/events. acpid is up and running ..
[07:39] <C-O-L-T> _jason: thansk
[07:39] <soundray> toxic_: the problem is with the ACPI implementation of your computer, then.
[07:39] <toxic_> Esco, probably you need to connect the cable correctly ..
[07:40] <elad`> Am I still connected?
[07:40] <elad`> That didn't go so well...
[07:40] <Esco> yes i have
[07:40] <Blippe> elad`, what you did wrong was probably the ":" after sudo!
[07:40] <toxic_> soundray, yeah I guess. It worked before I upgraded the breezy kernel though. The same events are there, the daemon is running, but the events doesn't trigger.
[07:40] <soundray> toxic_: I have this on one of mine -- tried fixing the DSDT, didn't help me, but apparently worked for other people.
[07:40] <elad`> Blippe, what?
[07:41] <elad`> Blippe, I changed from DHCP to static IP, and was disconnected for a while here.
[07:41] <soundray> toxic_: to what did you upgrade?
[07:41] <Blippe> but, if you have a dynamic dhcp, your computer probably negitiated a new ip address from you internet service provider...
[07:41] <elad`> Blippe, I changed it back, and voila, here I am again, without even reconnecting or rebooting.
[07:41] <saol> ccc
[07:41] <toxic_> soundray, Fixing DSTD ? I'm running 2.12-10 now
[07:41] <Esco> toxic:when i make static ip and ping he saiys "Destination Host Unreachable"
[07:41] <toxic_> soundray, <IP_ADDRESS>, used <IP_ADDRESS> before :P
[07:41] <saol> qualcuno mi sa dire un tema per gnome per farlo assomigliare a windows sxp?
[07:41] <Blippe> elad`, so what are you trying to fix, (or are you trying to "break internet")
[07:42] <soundray> toxic_: DSDT. I followed some instructions I found on the web.
[07:42] <polpak> elad`, you should use System->Administration->Networking
[07:42] <jeekl> soundray: Hmm... Wget complains about wrong portnumbers on proxy http://localhost: But the wgetrc is set to not use proxies?
[07:42] <toxic_> Esco, you need to check your router, make sure that it doesn't have any active filter blocking LAN / WAN traffic. I'm sure the problem lies with your router setup.
[07:42] <polpak> elad`, to set your DNS servers etc
[07:42] <soundray> toxic_: does it work again when you go back to <IP_ADDRESS>?
[07:42] <elad`> Blippe, thanks for trying to help, but WHY answer when you're not sure what the question is? You're just making me work harder that way.
[07:43] <soundray> jeekl: pls run 'env | grep localhost'
[07:43] <toxic_> soundray, I tried that earlier today, but I failed to boot using that kernel.
[07:43] <elad`> polpak, I did, but the thing is wiped clean in regular intervals. I remember, in that past, someone told me how to stop that from happening. Any ideas?
[07:43] <ArIeZ> Hello, I've jus downloaded Ubuntu via torrent burnt the iso to disc then tried to install on my 1 month old sony dvd rw, when i boot up the installation starts after it scans the cd rom it stops and says the its having trouble reading the disc
[07:43] <hartz> HELP!!! How can I get Move, Minimize, Resize and "Send to another workspace" on Enlightenment's "system" menus!!?
[07:43] <Blippe> you asked how you restarted networking, you do that by typing "sudo /etc/init.d/network restart" so i told you so...
[07:43] <polpak> elad`, disable dhcp (also in  System->Administration->Networking)
[07:43] <_jason> ArIeZ: burn the cd at like 2x or 4x
[07:43] <ArIeZ> i then changed back to my old dvd rom
[07:43] <deltron> ArIeZ: check the md5 on your download, it could be corrupt
[07:43] <ArIeZ> and it installed perfectly
[07:43] <soundray> toxic_: the kernel that worked fine before now doesn't boot? That's strange.
[07:43] <jeekl> soundray: Aha! I think we're getting somewhere here... http_proxy=http://localhost: HTTP_PROXY=http://localhost:
[07:44] <elad`> polpak, the only way to disable it is to move it to "static ip", and I don't know what to put in the fields in that case.
[07:44] <ArIeZ> i have cleaned the lens on the dvd rom
[07:44] <toxic_> soundray, yeah, it hung in the installation trying to initialize hotplug. I didn't give much consideration to it though since I'm not using it. But yeah, I find that strange as well.
[07:44] <ArIeZ> and am still having same problems
[07:44] <toxic_> soundray, Installation -> Bootup :P
[07:44] <Blippe> ArIeZ, lots of people have been complaining about that, try to burn it at a lower speed...
[07:44] <polpak> elad`, I would have assumed that you used a static IP since your DNS servers are statically assigned
[07:44] <polpak> elad`, hrm
[07:44] <ArIeZ> i burnt it as slow as possible
[07:44] <soundray> jeekl: to find out where that is set, you may have to 'find /etc -print0 | xargs -0 grep -l HTTP_PROXY'
[07:45] <elad`> polpak, could it be "<IP_ADDRESS>"?
[07:45] <polpak> elad`, could be
[07:45] <ArIeZ> its jus my new dvd rw drive wont read it
[07:45] <elad`> polpak, well, it doesn't work.
[07:45] <monzie> hi all
[07:45] <ArIeZ> old drive reads it fine
[07:45] <Blippe> ArIeZ, i had the same problem, and i just tried a couple of times and finally it worked... not the best solution :(
[07:46] <soundray> toxic_: perhaps you aren't loading all required acpi modules?
[07:46] <polpak> elad`, ok, well leave your IP assigned by dhcp then, but on the DNS tab you added your DNS servers?
[07:46] <ArIeZ> do u think there is something wrong with my dvd rw
[07:46] <monzie> is there anyone who's willing to help me set up a mailing list for Ebuntu?
[07:46] <jmorris1> Microsoft Reorganizes Windows Unit hah
[07:46] <jmorris1> im using dapper now and for the first time realize LINUX IS READY FOR PRIME
[07:47] <jeekl> soundray: That gives me /etc/alternatives/links, /etc/environment, /etc/lynx.cfg and /etc/elinks/elinks.conf
[07:47] <soundray> toxic: try 'lsmod | grep button'
[07:47] <shoun> hey, hoe can i apt-update
[07:47] <elad`> polpak, yes, and as I have said, whatever I put there disappears after a very short time. I tried doing the same by editing the file manually, and the same things happens.
[07:47] <jmorris1> dapper isnt final i realize, but its pretty damn close :)
[07:47] <Blippe> ArIeZ, i wouldn't know... but i would bet on something wrong with the cd...
[07:47] <soundray> jeekl: /etc/environment is the probably culprit. Edit it and comment out the proxy setting in there.
[07:47] <soundray> *probable
[07:47] <shoun> i put apt-get update
[07:47] <shoun> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[07:47] <ArIeZ> i done an md5 check on the file
[07:47] <toxic_> soundray, hmm, possibly.  Need to consult the manual for the module list and make sure.
[07:47] <polpak> elad`, in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf you can remove the request for domain-name-servers
[07:48] <ArIeZ> it was fine
[07:48] <ArIeZ> the disc is fine too
[07:48] <ArIeZ> so when i changed back to my old drive
[07:48] <soundray> toxic: try 'lsmod | grep button'?
[07:48] <ArIeZ> it worked
[07:48] <polpak> elad`, which will make it so you don't get updates to your DNS from DHCP
[07:48] <ArIeZ> so i guess its my new drive
[07:48] <Esco20> my dhcp doesnt work
[07:48] <Esco20> and its not my router
[07:49] <soundray> toxic_: if button isn't loaded, run modprobe button and retry the lid thing.
[07:49] <elad`> polpak, that's exactly what I was looking for, I remember someone telling me to do that once, and it working. Now, what exactly do I change in that file?
[07:49] <Goshawk> hi, how does the live cd start without X support (i need command line)?
[07:49] <polpak> elad`, remove the part that says "domain-name-servers,"
[07:50] <toxic_> soundray, I am loading acpid and acpi-support during startup.  Modprobe button ? What specifically do you mean by "button" ?
[07:50] <elad`> polpak, under "request"? Shouldn't I remove anything else?
[07:50] <polpak> elad`, I don't think so
[07:50] <elad`> OK, answer me only when I say I'm back, otherwise, though I will still appear connected, I will not get it.
[07:50] <Esco20> i have a router with dhcp and i got no ip!what is it
[07:50] <toxic_> soundray, I did modprobe button, but nothing of interest happened, and lid event was triggered either.
[07:50] <Top|Work> Is there a minimal iso for flight 5 of dapper?
[07:51] <soundray> Goshawk: use 2 as a kernel option, or switch to console with Ctrl-Alt-F1
[07:51] <toxic_> soundray, ok, button as in ACPI Button Driver, got it. Didn't work though.
[07:51] <jeekl> soundray: Very strange. The file says that those lines has been added by anon proxy. I did tinker a bit with anon proxy a couple of weeks ago but uninstalled it.  Be back in a few ;-)
[07:53] <elad`> I'm back. We aren't quite there yet.  I removed that entry from dhclient.conf, but resolv.conf is still being overwritten by something.
[07:53] <Top|Work> thx Blippe. I can't seem to find one
[07:53] <Hoxzer> is it possible to add HDD usage, CPU tempature to the ubuntu (gnome) desktop?
[07:53] <toxic_> Esco20, do you have another computer / another cable, or are you at all connected to the internet via the router ?
[07:53] <oskude> Esco, what is your NIC, and is it suppoerted under linux ?
[07:54] <LinuxJones> Hoxzer: you can install gdesklets
[07:54] <soundray> toxic_: do a ls /lib/modules/2.6.12-10-amd64-k8/kernel/drivers/acpi/ and see if any of those modules may be needed for the operation you require.
[07:54] <fly-away> hiall
[07:54] <toxic_> Esco20, find the MAC address of the router, probably on a sticker on it's back. Then try to arp the adress and see if you can find any ip matching it.
[07:54] <Esco20> oskude mit NIC ist supported
[07:54] <pepi69> hola
[07:54] <Hoxzer> LinuxJones: I think I already have them
[07:54] <Esco20> toxic:i will do it
[07:55] <LinuxJones> Hoxzer: did you install the gdesklets-data package as well ?
[07:55] <Blippe> Top|Work, if i remember correcly it should be the iso on: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/dapper/main/daily-installer-i386/current/images/netboot/
[07:55] <elad`> OK, it's working now. Hopefully it won't be overwritten again in a short while.
[07:55] <soundray> toxic_: sorry: replace your kernel version (obviously).
[07:55] <oskude> Esco, my /etc/network/interfaces has as last line "iface eth0 inet dhcp"
[07:55] <Top|Work> thx Blippe, I'll check it out
[07:55] <Hoxzer> Linux: probably not
[07:55] <fly-away> if i will be update my breezy to dapper how it describe in http://www.macewan.org/2006/02/23/upgrading-breezy-to-dapper/
[07:56] <fly-away> can it make any problem for me?
[07:56] <Hoxzer> installing it now
[07:56] <polpak> fly-away, well dapper's not stable yet...
[07:56] <toxic_> soundray, Yeah I figuered that. Yeah, I'll most likely need a few of those mods. I'll modprobe some of the essential ones and see what happends.
[07:56] <Top|Work> Blippe, Found it, thx
[07:56] <fiendskull9> !delete
[07:56] <ubotu> fiendskull9: I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:56] <fiendskull9> !del
[07:56] <ubotu> I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, fiendskull9
[07:56] <soundray> toxic_: you know about adding them to /etc/modules ?
[07:56] <fly-away> polpak, hooo, its not feary))
[07:56] <fiendskull9> how do i delete a dir in the terminal
[07:56] <LinuxJones> Hoxzer: there are about 50 desklets in that package like weather, clocks, hard disk /cps monitors etc
[07:56] <toxic_> soundray, sure
[07:56] <oskude> fly-away, yes it could (change is low, but its still very possible to go "wrong")
[07:57] <elad`> Once inside vim, editing a file requiring sudo permissions without having them, can I acquire them without exiting the program and reentering with sudo, thus losing all my changes and having to repeat them?
[07:57] <_jason> fiendskull9: rmdir if it is empty, rm -r if not
[07:57] <Esco20> oskude:my /etc/network/interfaces is iface eth0 inet dhcp is iface eth1 inet auto auto eth0 auto eth1
[07:57] <fly-away> ok, thx all
[07:57] <polpak> elad`, no
[07:57] <polpak> elad`, but
[07:57] <oskude> Esco, so you got 2 NICs ?
[07:57] <conn> nobody's answering in the other channel, has anyone gotten the flash plugin installed for firefox under dapper? Automatic install fails, gplflash crashes the browser, and flashplugin-nonfree doesn't install anything.. anyone?
[07:57] <polpak> elad`, you can save your changes to a different file
[07:58] <Esco20> oskude:lan and Wlan
[07:58] <polpak> elad`, then copy over the old one with the new one using sudo
[07:58] <katodas> Hi, when i install ubuntu ican't connect to the internet, the problem is the provider uses an adsl-pppoe connection, which uses a service tag, i can't find anything in the docs about service tags :-/ pppoeconf also doesn't seem to help on this.
[07:58] <soundray> conn: amd64?
[07:58] <conn> soundray, nop, plain x86
[07:59] <cwoods> I need help, I installed webmin with alien and now when I run apt-get I am getting the following error: "E: The package webmin needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it."
[07:59] <soundray> conn: does flashplugin-nonfree say anything about its failure mode?
[07:59] <soundray> conn: I mean the install
[07:59] <oskude> Esco, i cant remember what to do with wlan (only did it once)...
[08:00] <conn> soundray, there was no error, let me reinstall and verify
[08:00] <polpak> !webmin
[08:00] <ubotu> See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WebminWithoutARootAccount for webmin instructions for Ubuntu. Webmin runs on https://localhost:10000
[08:00] <cwoods> I have tried to run 'apt-get update'
[08:00] <elad`> polpak, thanks!
[08:00] <Esco20> oskude:there is a wlan and a lan on one board
[08:00] <polpak> cwoods, you don't need to use alien.. There's a deb package
[08:00] <katodas> anyone?
[08:00] <elad`> Does anyone here recommend I _not_ use Automatix?
[08:00] <elad`> *don't*
[08:01] <cwoods> polpak: I know that now and I am trying to get rid of the rpm
[08:01] <Hoxzer> daaamn
[08:01] <soundray> katodas, what kind of modem hardware?
[08:01] <Hoxzer> How do I enable 1200 x 800
[08:01] <oskude> Esco, and "ifconfig" doesnt show any ip's ?
[08:01] <Hoxzer> resolution?
[08:02] <Esco20> oskude:no there is no ip
[08:02] <katodas> someone please have a look at my problem :[
[08:02] <soundray> katodas, what kind of modem hardware?
[08:02] <EvilGuru> can someone tell me a good smtp server that is easy to set up
[08:02] <katodas> uh?
[08:02] <conn> soundray, there's no error from apt-get/dpkg, it installs fine, but no plugin is installed (or seen by firefox).. I think it's a bad package from hoary
[08:03] <Hoxzer> honestly
[08:03] <katodas> it's a realtek card, it's setuped on rl0 i believe.
[08:03] <Hoxzer> Is there any howto for
[08:03] <Hoxzer> it
[08:03] <Hoxzer> I remeber when ubuntu asked for it on install
[08:03] <soundray> katodas, a realtek ADSL PCI modem?
[08:03] <katodas> yes.
[08:04] <oskude> Esco20, well, if you have "iface eth0 inet dhcp" in your config and restarting with "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" wont help, i dont know further either... maybe read some logs...
[08:04] <toxic_> soundray, I modprobed modules likely needed for acpi. Neither the hotkeys nor the closing-lid triggered an event. They've been added in /etc/modules, but as modprobed then I can't see the need to reboot the system, or do I ?
[08:04] <IamEthos> okay
[08:04] <oskude> Esco20, assuming "eth0" is your lan NIC
[08:04] <IamEthos> so I used GParted to format a hard drive as Fat32
[08:04] <IamEthos> but Ubuntu still wants to mount it as ext3
[08:04] <IamEthos> how do I fix that?
[08:04] <soundray> conn: I take it you've restarted firefox and checked 'about:plugins'?
[08:04] <akin_to> help
[08:05] <elad`> Someone send me some .wav please, I think there's something wrong with my audio card.
[08:05] <conn> soundray, exactly
[08:05] <oskude> IamEthos, i think (never used) gparted doesnt format...
[08:05] <crimsun> elad`: use /usr/share/sounds/
[08:05] <akin_to> i use smb://ip_address/sharedfolder but i cant browse the shared folder
[08:05] <IamEthos> okay
[08:06] <IamEthos> so I have this unformatted, fat32 partition
[08:06] <IamEthos> how do I format it?
[08:06] <jeekl> soundray: Know what? That solved it.  I thanky you from the bottom of my heart. I win't forget it. Give me a shout if you're ever coming to Sweden and I'll buy you a round of beer.
[08:06] <katodas> soundray: anything you could share on this?
[08:06] <elad`> Totem threw unknown errors, then crashed. Help? I've got a plain old SoundBlaster Live! 5.1.
[08:06] <oskude> IamEthos, if you want format fat32 in a partition do "mkfs.vfat /path/to/your/partition"
[08:06] <Blippe> IamEthos, in gnome : system - administration - disks
[08:07] <IamEthos> Blippe: I tried that
[08:07] <Blippe> IamEthos, what happens?
[08:07] <soundray> Actually, jeekl... can I pm you?
[08:07] <jeekl> Sure
[08:07] <IamEthos> however it's still recognizing the partition as ext 3
[08:08] <soundray> katodas, has anyone ever got that kind of card to work under linux?
[08:08] <Mr_Morden> what source do I need to add for the msttcorefonts package?
[08:08] <EvilGuru> anyone help me set up an smtp server on my ubnutu pc
[08:08] <IamEthos> oh
[08:08] <IamEthos> I think I fixed it
[08:08] <katodas> soundray: i do not know. :-/
[08:08] <IamEthos> nope
[08:08] <IamEthos> I didn't
[08:09] <elad`> Fresh installation of Ubuntu, no sound. Help?
[08:09] <soundray> katodas, stfw then ;)
[08:09] <IamEthos> I formatted it as vFAT with that (the only FAT option)
[08:09] <toxic_> elad`, what's your soundcard ?
[08:09] <IamEthos> and now it says inaccessible
[08:09] <elad`> It used to have sound ootb on this machine, with the same version of Ubuntu, I think.
[08:09] <elad`> toxic_,  SoundBlaster Live! 5.1.
[08:09] <katodas> eh.
[08:09] <katodas> that was rude.
[08:09] <toxic_> elad`, Soundblaster, I think that should work well with the alsa drivers
[08:09] <crimsun> elad`: pastebin output from the following: cat /proc/asound/cards && amixer -c0
[08:10] <jbritz22> hey all
[08:10] <Timeline> Good afternoon everyone.
[08:10] <oskude> IamEthos, post the result of "sudo fdisk -l" to pastebin
[08:10] <soundray> katodas, rude is something else.
[08:11] <elad`> http://pastebin.com/618467
[08:11] <jbritz22> how do I make it so if I have a transparent terminal in fluxbox, everytime it loads up, so will that terminal, with the same settings, and how do I make it so loads up the same background each time?
[08:11] <sfar-ubu> !mp3
[08:11] <ubotu> I heard mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[08:11] <eae> Anyone have the link with instructions to install firefix 1,5?
[08:12] <eae> *firefox 1.5
[08:12] <grout58> what directory does ubuntu keep all the drives in again
[08:12] <oskude> !firefox
[08:12] <oskude> !firefox1.5
[08:12] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[08:12] <eae> Cheers
[08:13] <IamEthos> http://pastebin.com/618470
[08:13] <Blippe> grout58, /dev/
[08:13] <oskude> grout58, do you mean the device nodes in /dev ?
[08:13] <IamEthos> I'm trying to format sda2
[08:13] <Blippe> they start with hd..
[08:14] <oskude> IamEthos, i think you have to make it fat32 as partition type first, then format with mkfs.vfat
[08:14] <crimsun> elad`: your onboard sound is the primary (default) card
[08:14] <trace> Hello all
[08:14] <toxic_> elad`, I'd: wget ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/driver/alsa-driver-1.0.9rc4a.tar.bz2   And then install the new drivers. That is of course if you can't get it running with your current drivers.
[08:14] <elad`> crimsun, oh, right, damn it, the BIOS was reset.
[08:14] <crimsun> elad`: change it using System> Preferences> Sound> Set default sound card
[08:14] <grout58> how can i find the name of a unmounted hard drive?
[08:15] <IamEthos> oskude: so first make fat32, then mkfs.vfat?
[08:15] <IamEthos> make fat32 in gparted?
[08:15] <Timeline> How do I set up SSH/SFTP on a ubuntu server so I can transfer files from a windows machine?
[08:15] <oskude> IamEthos, fat32 = vfat
[08:15] <sfar-ubu> Hmm, there's no sound when im playing mp3's.. the sound is working (when i play videos etc).. and i have gstreamer0.8-mad installed
[08:15] <elad`> crimsun, toxic_, thanks!
[08:15] <crimsun> toxic_: completely irrelevant, but thanks.
[08:15] <IamEthos> ah
[08:15] <oskude> IamEthos, yes make fat32 in partition program
[08:15] <blackhood> HARE BROW
[08:15] <grout58> how can i find the name of a unmounted hard drive?
[08:16] <elad`> Man, that was silly.
[08:16] <oskude> grout58, maybe "sudo fdisk -l"
[08:16] <elad`> Another thing - my clock is all wrong.
[08:16] <grout58> thanks
[08:17] <elad`> Man, my resolv.conf was just reset back to contain only "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:17] <elad`> ". I didn't do anything to provoke this!
[08:17] <kung> hi
[08:17] <IamEthos> oskude: the path being /dev/sda2 or /media/sda2?
[08:17] <toxic_> crimsun, hehe np :P By the way, you wouldn't have a clue why I can't get acpi to trigger on events (I've modprobed most of the modules in .../kernel/drivers). Events worked fresh from the box, but then I had a kernelupdate to <IP_ADDRESS> and it seemed that it stopped working somewhere along that time.
[08:18] <oskude> IamEthos, /dev/xxxxx is the "physical" location of the device and /media/xxxx is the path where it is/willbe mounted
[08:19] <oskude> IamEthos, btw, when you partition or format the partition must NOT be mounted
[08:19] <elad`> How do I permanently stop /etc/resolv.conf from being overwritten?
[08:20] <IamEthos> I bet partition magic could do all of this much more easily
[08:20] <IamEthos> I may just have to boot to windows and do that
[08:20] <oskude> dunno, never used
[08:20] <kung> I updated to ubuntu dapper (from breezy) now I have about 3 versions of installed, which one do I really need?
[08:20] <crimsun> toxic_: on Breezy? Hmm, no
[08:20] <kung> 3 versions of gcc
[08:20] <IamEthos> is x-chat the best irc clinet for ubuntu?
[08:20] <Seveas> kung, you only need the latest 4.x version
[08:21] <toxic_> crimsun, ok thx anyway
[08:21] <grout58> i just used the command sudo mount /dev/hdd1 /home/grout now i cant get into my home dir, says i dont have permission
[08:21] <Seveas> IamEthos, that depends ov your taste
[08:21] <kung> Seveas thx
[08:21] <dejx> chmod all-w /etc/resolv.conf
[08:21] <oskude> IamEthos, "best" is relative...
[08:21] <grout58> and i cant get into terminal now cause i dont have permission
[08:21] <IamEthos> seveas: wow, using katakana as a smiley face....
[08:21] <elad`> dejx, thanks, I'll try that. We won't know if it works for another hour, though.
[08:22] <IamEthos> that's true
[08:22] <grout58> now i cant open anything
[08:22] <dejx> elad`, or chmod 444 /etc/resolv.conf
[08:22] <rim> Where can I find a screensaver that locks while displaying the desktop applications?
[08:22] <IamEthos> okay, what are my other options?
[08:22] <IamEthos> that should be easier to answer
[08:22] <toxic_> I need some ACPI assistance. I can't get it to trigger events (buttons, closeing lid etc). It used to work on my last kernel, but doesn't now. acpid daemon running ...
[08:22] <IamEthos> and will x-chat let me choose to connect a server automatically on startup?
[08:22] <grout58> someone help
[08:23] <IamEthos> and run commands on connect to a network?
[08:23] <oskude> IamEthos, yes, but dunno about commands on connect
[08:23] <IamEthos> (so that I can identify to nickserv right off the bat
[08:23] <elad`> dejx, it seems it already was on 444 to begin with.,
[08:23] <Blippe> what should i do if ubuntu can't find the local filesystems?
[08:23] <C-O-L-T> how to select firefox as default browser cause I have konqueror too
[08:23] <oskude> grout58, reboot (but theres allso a command to remount according to fstab, but i forgot)
[08:24] <grout58> oskude why did it do that?
[08:24] <dejx> dejx@notebook:~/Desktop/wlscan-0.1$ ls -la /etc/resolv.conf
[08:24] <dejx> -rw-r--r--  1 root root 52 2006-03-23 15:10 /etc/resolv.conf
[08:24] <oskude> IamEthos, good idea, i would need that too :)
[08:24] <oskude> grout58, you told it to do so...
[08:24] <polpak> elad`, can you check your modem settings and make sure that the DNS servers are set right? The only other thing I can suggest is to comment out the function calls in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-script.. (put a # in front of line 201 and 260)
[08:24] <mackyman> culd someone help me config my apache server? Just want it to be public. I have tried too google but I find nothing
[08:24] <sfar-ubu> I cant hear no sound when playing MP3's (only then).. gstreamer0.8-mad installed.. What to do??
[08:24] <grout58> oskude, i told it to mount the drive in /home/grout  how did i do it?
[08:25] <_jason> sfar-ubu: what player?
[08:25] <oskude> grout58, ???, you just posted what you did...
[08:25] <elad`> polpak, what exactly should I comment out there?
[08:25] <elad`> oh, 201-260
[08:25] <polpak> elad`, just those 2
[08:25] <grout58> ok but why did it lock me out?
[08:25] <toxic_> I need some ACPI assistance. I can't get it to trigger events (buttons, closeing lid etc). It used to work on my last kernel, but doesn't now. acpid daemon running ... /etc/init.d/acpid restart -> /proc/acpi/event: Device or resource busy.
[08:26] <sfar-ubu> _jason: xmms and beep media player
[08:26] <sfar-ubu> just noticed that it works in mplayer tho :)
[08:26] <polpak> elad`, they should just say make_resolv_conf with nothing else on the line right now
[08:26] <oskude> grout58, you mounted it with sudo, so it took the rights of root user (or something like that)
[08:26] <elad`> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[08:26] <elad`>   kate: Depends: kdelibs4c2 (>= 4:3.4.3) but it is not going to be installed
[08:26] <elad`>         Depends: libqt3-mt (>= 3:3.3.4) but it is not installable
[08:26] <elad`> E: Broken packages
[08:26] <_jason> sfar-ubu: do you use esd as the sound output?
[08:26] <grout58> oooh
[08:27] <eae> How I can make this not open a new window everytime I open a folder?
[08:27] <junming> hello i have a locale problem
[08:27] <polpak> elad`, so if you put a # sign in front it won't call that function
[08:27] <grout58> so how can i mount a drive like that?
[08:27] <sfar-ubu> _jason: i dont know, where do i look that  up?
[08:27] <junming> how do i modify the locales forever?
[08:27] <_jason> sfar-ubu: system  > preferences > multimedia systems selector
[08:27] <junming> "sudo dprk-reconfigure locales" doesn't work
[08:28] <oskude> grout58, add it in /etc/fstab
[08:28] <Blippe> eae, you open nautilus, choose edit, preferences, go to the second tab (Behavior) and chechk "always in open browser"
[08:28] <sfar-ubu> _jason:  sink:esd, source:oss
[08:28] <junming> does anyone know?
[08:28] <elad`> Crap, that chmod 444 thing didn't work, and now it's just a nuisance. What should I chmod it back to? What is it by default?
[08:29] <oskude> grout58, but i dont know what parameters it should have...
[08:29] <_jason> sfar-ubu: go to preferences in xmms and beep and select esd as the audio output
[08:29] <Blippe> elad`, 0711
[08:29] <grout58> what line in fstab should i add for /dev/hdd1
[08:30] <kingspawn> any of you guys have any idea what could be wrong when ubuntu suddenly resolves hosts extremely slowly? my debian machine still works like a charm
[08:30] <oskude> grout58, as it is your home directory, i dunno (otherwise i would make it look like the floppy line)
[08:30] <polpak> elad`, 644
[08:30] <sfar-ubu> _jason:  thanks.. that did the trick:D
[08:30] <eae> What's the closest thing to Notepad?
[08:30] <crimsun> gedit?
[08:30] <eae> That didn't work
[08:30] <eae> Anything else?
[08:30] <polpak> elad`, or you can do the new method chmod u=rw,go=r
[08:30] <oskude> junming, its "dpkg"
[08:30] <crimsun> eae: what are you trying to do?
[08:31] <polpak> eae, define "didn't work"
[08:31] <junming> oskude, typo, i typed dpkg
[08:31] <eae> open a non text file as text
[08:31] <sambagirl> anyone speaking italian?
[08:31] <elad`> Which is it? 0711 or 644?
[08:31] <polpak> eae, ...... what kind of non-text file
[08:31] <oskude> junming, you know "doesnt work" doesnw really help... any error messages ?
[08:31] <polpak> elad`, 644 or u=rw,go=r
[08:31] <crimsun> sambagirl: #ubuntu-it?
[08:31] <elad`> Also: kate:
[08:31] <elad`>  Depends: kdelibs4c2 but it is not going to be installed
[08:31] <elad`>  Depends: libqt3-mt (>=3:3.3.4) but it is not installable - What and why?
[08:32] <junming> oskude, no error messages, it says everything works fine, but the changes just don't remain
[08:32] <elad`> (I need kate to find lines 201 and 260)
[08:32] <eggzeck> is it really bad to install ubuntu without a swap partition?
[08:32] <crimsun> elad`: do you not have the ubuntu main repo enabled?
[08:32] <crimsun> eggzeck: no
[08:32] <elad`> crimsun, I'm not sure.
[08:32] <polpak> elad`, why do you need kate?
[08:32] <crimsun> elad`: pastebin: apt-cache policy kate
[08:32] <elad`> crimsun, it's a fresh installation of Ubuntu, so I guess I do.
[08:33] <polpak> elad`, use either nano or vi, works fine
[08:33] <eggzeck> crimsun: ty
[08:33] <Esco> how can i change ipv6 in ipv4?
[08:33] <Blippe> eae, you have to start a new nautilus for it to take effect

[08:33] <toxic_> I need some ACPI assistance. I can't get it to trigger events (buttons, closeing lid etc). It used to work on my last kernel, but doesn't now. acpid daemon running ... /etc/init.d/acpid restart -> /proc/acpi/event: Device or resource busy.
[08:34] <elad`> polpak, how do I find a line by its number in vi?
[08:34] <polpak> elad`, in command mode, type 201G
[08:34] <kingspawn> the sollution to my problem was that i am a dunce.
[08:34] <kingspawn> i am now wearing the dunce hat.
[08:34] <polpak> elad`, or you can type :set nu to see the line numbers
[08:34] <eggzeck> elad`: /x where x is the number
[08:35] <Esco> how can i change ipv6 in ipv4?
[08:35] <elad`> polpak, Are you sure it's 201 and 260 I need to comment out? And, how do I comment out in that kind of file? ";"?
[08:35] <oskari> #ubuntu-fi
[08:36] <polpak> elad`, use a # sign to comment a shell script
[08:36] <polpak> elad`, they should just say make_resolv_conf with nothing else on the line right now
[08:36] <polpak> elad`, so if you put a # sign in front it won't call that function
[08:36] <Esco> how can i change ipv6 in ipv4?
[08:36] <Blippe> polpak, aint that problem elad haves with installing kate typical after a automatix install of skype?
[08:36] <elad`> OK, commented out. /me crosses its fingers.

[08:46] <oskude> Esco, what is your routers ip and what is your machines ip ? is the cable 100% ok ?
[08:46] <Esco> i have static ip but i cant ping my router!i dont now
[08:46] <elad`> crimsun, could you help me with Kate please?
[08:46] <Esco> router <IP_ADDRESS> my <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:47] <funtable> Esco: type #sudo mii-tool
[08:47] <crimsun> elad`: what's the issue?
[08:47] <northie> How would I disable my microphone?
[08:47] <oskude> Esco, do you get your machines ip with "ifconfig" ?
[08:47] <funtable> and look if your interface is up
[08:47] <elad`> crimsun, it won't install.  Here it goes again:
[08:47] <elad`> http://pastebin.com/618522
[08:47] <rambo3> esco is mask and gatwayset correct ?
[08:47] <gabbah> how do i restart X?
[08:48] <Esco> funtable:eth0 failed:bad adress
[08:48] <Esco> oskude:no
[08:48] <Esco> rambo3:yes i think so
[08:48] <oskude> gabbah, ctrl+alt+backspace or "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[08:48] <rambo3> sudo route add default gw <IP_ADDRESS>  and so on?
[08:48] <funtable> Esco: must apper something like : eth0: negotiated 100baseTx-FD, link ok
[08:49] <crimsun> elad`: you don't have the 'main' repo enabled in /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:49] <oskude> Esco, if "ifconfig" doesnt show an ip address for your device, then its not working yet...
[08:50] <elad`> How did I miss that one? I didn't uncomment it.  Thanks.
[08:51] <Esco> ifconfig there is an ip <IP_ADDRESS> netmask <IP_ADDRESS> gw <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:51] <northie> How would I disable my microphone?

[08:51] <soop> anyone around?
[08:52] <Matic`Makovec> ask.
[08:52] <elad`> How do I fix my clock?
[08:52] <soop> anyone here running multiple broswers?
[08:52] <Matic`Makovec> you could go with ntpdate
[08:52] <elad`> soop, not me. Why?
[08:52] <Matic`Makovec> or you could use date
[08:52] <soop> i need someone to confirm something ... go to ask.com ask it something in IE then ask it something in firefox
[08:52] <soop> i get different results
[08:52] <elad`> ntpdate, thanks.
[08:52] <Matic`Makovec> and set the clock.
[08:53] <oskude> Esco, could help if you post your "cat /etc/network/interfaces" file and messages that "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" produces... (and maybe some logs that i dont know atm)
[08:53] <oskude> Esco, and posting mean in pastebin!
[08:53] <Esco> oskude: ok wait i will do it
[08:54] <patrick522> how do i umount a dvd which i inserted
[08:54] <oskude> soop, google.X produces different results too, i assume for money...
[08:54] <_jason> patrick522: gnome should mount it automatically
[08:54] <Matic`Makovec> patrick522,  umount /dev/drive ?
[08:54] <soop> yah but this is the same site, only wiuth different browsers
[08:55] <_jason> patrick522: oh didn't see ``umount'', sorry :)
[08:55] <Matic`Makovec> for drive you insert the name of drive (it can be cdrom, hda, ..)
[08:55] <oskude> patrick522, or right click and "eject"
[08:55] <xerxez> i just recompiled the kernel and i don't get a boot screen, i mean when it's loading everything..
[08:55] <xerxez> (ubuntu 5.10)
[08:55] <makol> using namespace std; what mean that's,,,,,,,,,i put this line and the compilation works!!
[08:55] <Matic`Makovec> oskude, that works only if he has permissions
[08:55] <elad`> I need a fresh sources.list
[08:55] <oskude> patrick522, or i think typing just "eject" in terminal should do it too...
[08:55] <_jason> makol: that's c++
[08:55] <Matic`Makovec> elad`, go to ubuntu homepage
[08:55] <patrick522> has any body installed unreal tournament 2004 on linux
[08:56] <Matic`Makovec> you can "make" a sources.list there
[08:56] <Matic`Makovec> with specifying where are you from and stuff..
[08:56] <fiendskull9> hello
[08:56] <fiendskull9> i know you guys dont like illegal stuff
[08:56] <Rawplayer> ?
[08:56] <Matic`Makovec> and we don't help with it
[08:56] <alecs> hi! can you tell me ? ubuntu has .deb or .rpm packages?
[08:56] <fiendskull9> but if anyone wants a ebook of the linux bible 2005 edition, let me know.
[08:56] <fiendskull9> alecs, it uses deb
[08:56] <xerxez> any ideas?? i mean it works great it just won't show the booting sequence..
[08:57] <patrick522> i want one
[08:57] <Matic`Makovec> alecs, .deb ofcourse since it's debian based
[08:57] <soop> fiendskull9: wow i bet it tells me how to install red hat fc4 or something right?
[08:57] <ftg2> where do i add new session types for xdm/gdm/kdm? supposing i wanted to make additional kde installations available
[08:57] <fiendskull9> soop, only fc3, as 4 came out early 06
[08:57] <fiendskull9> soop, its only gonna be hosted for tonight
[08:57] <oskude> xerxez, you mean you dont get grub ?
[08:58] <patrick522> can i have a copy of the ebook
[08:58] <Esco> oksude:http://pastebin.com/618581
[08:58] <xerxez> yeah, after grub.. when the ubuntu logo is suppose to show and everything is suppose to load.. i mean it does, i just can't see it.. i can see some white _ blinking on the bottom line some time though
[08:59] <oskude> Esco, hmm
[08:59] <patrick522> how do i view .pdf format
[08:59] <fiendskull9> patrick522 & soop, did you get my pm's?
[08:59] <patrick522> yep

[08:59] <ubotu> fiendskull9: Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:59] <_jason> patrick522: evince or xpdf
[09:00] <fiendskull9> patrick522, are u in ubuntu?
[09:00] <soop> fiendskull9: im not a fan of linux bibles etc, they only get you to post install and maybe a small apache config and thats it usually
[09:00] <patrick522> im using ubuntu
[09:00] <soop> and they call it linux bible when it uses all of redhats tools or something for admin
[09:00] <soop> pfft
[09:00] <rambo3> hasent hotplug been removed with new kernels?
[09:00] <elad`> eladalon@AM:~$ sudo ntpdate

[09:01] <fiendskull9> soop, its worth a gander
[09:01] <Esco> oskude:what do you mean?
[09:01] <skypa> greetings
[09:01] <oskude> Esco, is eth0 the lan interface ?
[09:01] <Esco> yes
[09:01] <patrick522> yep
[09:02] <rambo3> esco wasnt it static interface not dhcp that you where talking about
[09:02] <skypa> any suggestions where to start reading? :)
[09:02] <_jason> skypa: about what?
[09:02] <Esco> rambo:it is dhcp, but with static it doesnt work too
[09:02] <rambo3> ok
[09:03] <oskude> Esco, try commenting all lines after "iface eth0 inet dhcp" and do "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" and look if "ifconfig" shows any ip for your device
[09:03] <tonyyarusso> skypa: That link *might* help, not sure if it's exactly what you need.
[09:03] <RDKING> hey everyone.  I need some help creating a launcher to run a wine command on a hidden directory.  How do I code the command to issue a terminal command
[09:03] <tonyyarusso> skypa: Whoa, wait, without hard drive or without CD-ROM drive?
[09:03] <skypa> w/o hd :)
[09:03] <skypa> so I'd like to tell my BIOS to boot a basesystem from another machine in the network
[09:03] <tonyyarusso> skypa: Hmm, then it might not be as useful.  Still worth a look maybe, dunno.
[09:04] <_michael_> Is it possible to be running 3 display managers on the same computer?
[09:04] <Esco> oskude:no there is only lo <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:04] <_michael_> 2*
[09:04] <skypa> well, there is a ready to go damn small linux image which would do the netboot job, but I'd like to use ubuntu
[09:05] <oskude> Esco, then try with static ip
[09:05] <elad`> So, how do I fix ntpdate?
[09:05] <Esco> oskude:static ip doesnt work,too
[09:05] <Matic`Makovec> fix?
[09:06] <Matic`Makovec> well
[09:06] <fraka> hi all
[09:06] <elad`> 24 Mar 00:04:46 ntpdate[18770] : no servers can be used, exiting
[09:06] <Matic`Makovec> elad`, search for ntp servers and do ntpdate ntp.server.com
[09:06] <Matic`Makovec> elad`, where are you from ?
[09:06] <grout58> whenever i mount my second drive i lose permission to everything becuase i have to sue sudo, where can i mount the drive ?
[09:06] <Matic`Makovec> oh israel
[09:06] <eggzeck> haha, ubuntu will NOT install on my G4 on ext3 journaling type partition
[09:06] <fraka> wen i install new them it says already installed but not anyone
[09:06] <funtable> Esco, try to make easyer mode, em X-windows, Go do ( System / Administration / Networking )
[09:06] <Matic`Makovec> well elad` , try google with israel ntp servers
[09:06] <eggzeck> I had to use ext2 without a swap patition
[09:07] <elad`> Matic`Makovec, thanks.
[09:07] <funtable> Esco, and look if your interface is enable, and configure your IP there
[09:07] <nickrud> elad`, when you find one, add it to /etc/default/ntpdate
[09:07] <tonyyarusso> elad`: ntp.ubuntulinux.org, isn't it?
[09:07] <oskude> Esco, btw "man interfaces" shows info about that file... (check your syntax)
[09:08] <Esco> ok
[09:08] <oskude> Esco, or as funtable suggested, try the GUI
[09:08] <fraka> wen i install new them it says already installed but not anyone
[09:08] <IamEthos> sudo apt-get install mozilla-thunderbird <- that would install a version of thunderbird that came with Ubuntu, right?
[09:08] <IamEthos> or am I crazy?
[09:08] <funtable> in the GUI you cant make a wrong config ;)
[09:08] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: Correct.
[09:09] <wamty> anyone know how to install flash player for mozilla in ubuntu dapper? flashplugin-nonfree doesn't work and flashplayer-mozilla doesn't exist :|

[09:09] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: 1.5 will be in Dapper, otherwise:
[09:09] <tonyyarusso> !thunderbird1.5
[09:09] <ubotu> it has been said that thunderbird1.5 is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ThunderbirdNewVersion
[09:09] <wamty> anyone know how to install flash player for mozilla in ubuntu dapper? flashplugin-nonfree doesn't work and flashplayer-mozilla doesn't exist :|

[09:10] <fraka> wen i install new them it says already installed but not anyone
[09:11] <oskude> funtable, thats ok, we need gui support too :)
[09:11] <IamEthos> tonyyarusso: does this install the new version alongside the old version?
[09:12] <IamEthos> I think that's what firefox did
[09:12] <IamEthos> instead of replacing
[09:12] <fraka> please help
[09:12] <fraka> please help
[09:12] <JRGC> How can i configure the IP address, default gateway and DNS from the console on ubuntu? Where are the config files?
[09:12] <fraka> wen i install new them it says already installed but not anyone
[09:12] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: Only if the old version is installed (Firefox is default and required in Ubuntu, TB is not), but if you install both, then yes.
[09:12] <nickrud> JRGC, /etc/network/interfaces
[09:12] <fraka> wen i install new theme it says already installed but not anyone

[09:13] <IamEthos> aah
[09:13] <oskude> !helpme
[09:13] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[09:13] <IamEthos> is there an update tool for ubuntu?
[09:13] <IamEthos> or just reinstall?
[09:13] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: Apt/Synpatic will update everything.
[09:14] <IamEthos> aaah
[09:14] <oskude> ive heard dapper will have somekind of "easy update"
[09:14] <wamty> anyone?
[09:14] <orion_fr_24> !javascript
[09:14] <ubotu> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, orion_fr_24
[09:14] <IamEthos> so when dapper comes out, synaptic will just say "Hey, new stuff!"
[09:14] <IamEthos> and get it all?
[09:14] <oskude> i assume yes
[09:14] <fraka> can someone install themes on ubuntu=?
[09:14] <_jason> IamEthos: no, you have to update the repositories
[09:14] <_jason> ubotu: tell fraka about themes
[09:15] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: I don't think it will quite do dist-upgrades automatically, but it will for the next release after that.
[09:15] <markd> the partition tool with ubuntu wont work for me anymore, what other tool(s) can i use?
[09:15] <wamty> anyone know how to install flash player for mozilla in ubuntu dapper? flashplugin-nonfree doesn't work and flashplayer-mozilla doesn't exist :|
[09:15] <markd> windows wont boot or anything for me
[09:15] <JRGC> nickrud:  This file doesn't contain the IP or default gateway

[09:15] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[09:15] <IamEthos> is Ubuntu suitable as a primary operating system?
[09:15] <wamty> so?
[09:15] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: A few quick things to tell Synaptic "hey, look for Dapper now", and then it will gladly handle the upgrade process.
[09:15] <Fawzib> hello, I'm trying to make a deb for a python application, but all the samples are for compiled apps not interpreted ones. Is there a skeleton debian/rules for python programs or a site with samples?
[09:15] <_jason> IamEthos: it is for me
[09:15] <fiendskull9> can someone tell me where i can get the beta iso of dapper?
[09:15] <fk6> markd, who needs windows?
[09:15] <fiendskull9> i was told earlier, but forgot
[09:15] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: Most certainly.
[09:15] <IamEthos> I do a lot of HTML work, a lot of student-type work
[09:16] <IamEthos> imaging stuff
[09:16] <markd> lol fk
[09:16] <oskude> IamEthos, i have linux as "primary" 4years now
[09:16] <markd> i cant do anything with my computer tho
[09:16] <markd> ubuntu wont install
[09:16] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: Nvue for the HTML, Gimp for images.
[09:16] <markd> i think i ruined my partition table
[09:16] <markd> and the boot partition utility wont work
[09:16] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: *Nvu , no e.
[09:16] <oskude> markd, i hope you made backup...
[09:16] <nickrud> JRGC, that's where you can set that info; I'm just good enough for myself; man interfaces has all the details about the format & the like
[09:16] <markd> nah, i didnt, but i didnt have any important files
[09:17] <markd> im just wondering if my harddrive is still usable
[09:17] <fk6> markd, maybe time for re-format...you have back-up?
[09:17] <IamEthos> does Gimp hold it's own against photoshop?
[09:17] <oskude> IamEthos, if you like vector gracphic, see this http://xaraxtreme.org/ (it can even draw and save allready)
[09:17] <markd> fk, thats what i would like to do, but i dont know what tool to use
[09:17] <nickrud> IamEthos, I've been told by many people, 'don't recommend gimp to photoshop pros'
[09:18] <_jason> IamEthos: photoshop is definitely superior imo, but it depends on what you need to do.  For me, GIMP does everything I need it to
[09:18] <oskude> IamEthos, for the normal web usage is gimp more than enough...
[09:18] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: It can once you learn it.  There's also a version designed to have a Photoshop-like interface.  Additionally, there's some talk around the internet about Photoshop finally being ported to Linux, so you might be in luck in the future.
[09:18] <IamEthos> that'd be nice
[09:18] <fk6> mrkd, just stick in your ubuntu disk..or am I missing something.....I had smilar prob.
[09:19] <markd> fk, my ubuntu disk cant create the first ext3 partition or whatever
[09:19] <simongo> hello
[09:19] <IamEthos> as for Nvu: how convenient is it as an editor, if you disclude WYSIWYG features?
[09:19] <markd> and i cant use my windows install cd either so i dont know what to do
[09:19] <IamEthos> because I'm not really a WYS kind of guy
[09:19] <fk6> markd, you need a low level format disk...hi simongo
[09:20] <IamEthos> I prefer to type by hand
[09:20] <JRGC> nickrud:  And where can I set the DNS?
[09:20] <IamEthos> does it make things easier?
[09:20] <markd> fk, how can i create one?
[09:20] <oskude> IamEthos, gedit is enough for my html/php/bash/python ...
[09:20] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: Just for the code then?  Like Dreamweaver, with a 'source' tab.  If you never want the WYSIWYG stuff, you can always use other things too, Gedit, Bluefish, Screem, etc.
[09:20] <schnable> hi, i need to install ubuntu on a rackmont machine that has no cdrom or floppy. it currently has freebsd on it.  any suggestions?
[09:20] <nickrud> JRGC,  /etc/resolv.conf is where you'd enter that
[09:21] <SilentJihad> Wazzup my nizzyz
[09:21] <SilentJihad> haha
[09:21] <fk6> markd, I have one..hang on ill dig it out...find out who its from.
[09:21] <IamEthos> is there anything that has a large 3rd party plugin base?
[09:21] <markd> thanks fk :)
[09:21] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: Nvu, Gedit, and Bluefish all have highlighting/formatting for HTML to make it more readable, I assume Screem does too.
[09:21] <IamEthos> I reallly like HTML-Kit because so many users create really useful plugins for it
[09:21] <oskude> schnable, couple options: debootsrap from existing linux, network boot, hmm...
[09:22] <IamEthos> but alas, no HTML-Kit on linux
[09:22] <SilentJihad> Hey, for Windoze I use this Download accelerator, it's really cool it lets you pause and resume downloads anytime you want to. Do you know if there is anything like that for linux/ Ubuntu? Also, is there something similar to Dreamweaver for Linux?
[09:22] <IamEthos> without Wine at least
[09:22] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: Starting with Dapper (Gnome 2.14) Gedit is extensible, don't know about the rest.
[09:22] <eirejah> hell
[09:22] <eirejah> o
[09:22] <SilentJihad> howdy erie
[09:22] <eirejah> can anyone help me out with ssl on ubuntu?
[09:22] <schnable> oskude: what do you mean by debootstrap? is that where i download vmlinuz from the installer and set my loader to load it?
[09:22] <nickrud> SilentJihad, gwget, d4x , there are others as well
[09:22] <JRGC> nickrud:  thank you very much!!
[09:23] <nickrud> JRGC, yw
[09:23] <tonyyarusso> SilentJihad: Plenty, you'll just have to choose one.  I think gwget2 fulfills  your first request, then Nvu for the second.  I've also heard some say Dreamwever might run with wine.
[09:23] <SilentJihad> nickrud what is d4X?
[09:23] <SilentJihad> ahh
[09:23] <nickrud> SilentJihad, downloader for X
[09:23] <SilentJihad> cool
[09:23] <SilentJihad> ok cool
[09:23] <funtable> SilentJihad, in linux you can use wget, to substitute Download Acelerator, this apps, can resume downloads, limit-rate, etc.
[09:24] <SilentJihad> yea, I used wget a bunch of times its awsome, just type in the address or whatever...
[09:24] <funtable> Dreamweaver dont suport linux :(
[09:24] <oskude> schnable, i only did this once (debootstrapped a suse to debian) and i followed a howto from net, so i dont know how "compatible" that is with ubuntu
[09:24] <kahuna_> Hi. Where can I find lame?
[09:24] <tonyyarusso> funtable: Have you tried it in wine?
[09:24] <SilentJihad> yea, Microshot is lame
[09:24] <SilentJihad> !vmware
[09:24] <ubotu> SilentJihad: I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[09:25] <kahuna_> !lame
[09:25] <ubotu> kahuna_: Huh?  Version: 3.96.1-1 (breezy), Packaged size: 222 kB, Installed size: 620 kB
[09:25] <oskude> schnable, but in all it was just making the partitions, debootstrapping the root partition, install grub and reboot (IIRC)
[09:25] <funtable> tony, i have a windows desktop to use win apps, i never tried wine
[09:25] <SilentJihad> !info vmware
[09:25] <kahuna_> crap. I can't find it.
[09:25] <tonyyarusso> funtable: Ah.  Might be worth looking into if you want to give it a shot.
[09:25] <markd> sorry
[09:26] <schnable> oskude: sure, that makes sense, but i dont know how freebsds bootloader works
[09:26] <markd> i was trying to find something
[09:26] <schnable> is my problem
[09:26] <oskude> schnable, well, it will/could be replaced
[09:26] <kahuna_> hmm. no multiverse that's why.
[09:26] <SilentJihad> The bot rocks
[09:26] <SilentJihad> haha
[09:26] <SilentJihad> !Tell SilentJihad he is sexy
