[12:00] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, i think you need to install an older driver of xorg-drivers-via
[12:00] <ech0> chr1z: thank you
[12:00] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, But this is Dapper Drake as far as I know 6.06 right?
[12:00] <chr1z> djk_: lsmod?
[12:00] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, yes, but the way i fixed my problem was by forcing a different version of via drivers
[12:00] <gerardomt> I read about turboprint but i dont have credit card
[12:00] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, ofcourse, the two problems could be unrelated, but might be worth giving a shot
[12:01] <djk_> chr1z: that shows which modules are currently loaded
[12:01] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Here's an idea. My mother doesn't exactly do anything that requires 3D accel. Is there a generic driver like "x11" or something that I could use. I think there is one but I don't remember what it's called...
[12:01] <jadacyrus> Im trying to watch a dvd ISO throug gxine, however it seems to be playing fast and skipping through it? Any ideas?
[12:01] <yggdrasil> can somone tell me how to remove and reinstall kde and gnome .. im confusesd as to wheather its kubunt-desktop and gnome-desktop or just gnome
[12:01] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, try 'vesa'
[12:02] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, right. Hold on a second.
[12:02] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, in you xorg.conf, replace 's3' or 'via' with vesa see if it helps
[12:02] <ompaul> gentoo_helper, vesa >>S3 does exist << as a card type
[12:02] <chr1z> djk_: google.com?
[12:02] <gentoo_helper> ompaul, Ok. Then what should I do?
[12:02] <jadacyrus> Im trying to watch a dvd ISO throug gxine, however it seems to be playing fast and skipping through it? Any ideas?
[12:03] <ompaul> gentoo_helper, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg <<<< and choose the card type and then restart x - logout and in again
[12:03] <chr1z> jadacyrus: don't warez movies
[12:03] <gentoo_helper> ompaul, Yeah...but the driver for the S3 card is apparently what's causing the problem. I don't want use it again.
[12:03] <ompaul> jadacyrus, use mplayer
[12:03] <jadacyrus> chr1z who said anythng about warez
[12:03] <chr1z> jadacyrus: you!
[12:03] <ompaul> gentoo_helper, then vesa and via
[12:03] <__DeamoN> #irc.gigachat.net
[12:03] <jadacyrus> no i didnt
[12:04] <ompaul> gentoo_helper, then vesa and vga
[12:04] <amgad> guys, how can i open a udp port on firestarter????
[12:04] <jadacyrus> havign an iso of a dvd does not automatically imply copyright infringment
[12:04] <gentoo_helper> ompaul, I'm not sure I understand.
[12:04] <chr1z> jadacyrus: we don't support that here, please bring your illegal activity elsewhere
[12:04] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, try vesa then try vga
[12:04] <ompaul> gentoo_helper, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg <<<< and choose the card type and then restart x
[12:04] <gentoo_helper> ompaul, Choose vesa as my card type using dpkg-reconfigure?
[12:04] <jadacyrus> haha
[12:04] <ompaul> gentoo_helper,
[12:04] <ompaul> correct
[12:04] <jadacyrus> you have no idea what your talking about
[12:04] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, you can do it with either dpkg-reconfigure or editing xorg.xonf
[12:04] <gentoo_helper> ompaul, Ok. I'll give it a shot.
[12:05] <theeil> xfce lost its menu, how do I repair it?
[12:05] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, I'll try dpkg reconfigure first...
[12:05] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, ok :)
[12:05] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, ompaul, stand by guys.
[12:05] <pppoe_dude> boom
[12:05] <Subhuman> theeil, might be better asking in #xubuntu
[12:05] <theeil> Subhuman: i'll try that
[12:05] <chr1z> jadacyrus: obviously you don't, since you can't even play a downloaded movie
[12:05] <transgaming> hi
[12:06] <transgaming> known anyone where can i find the utility alien in ubuntu
[12:06] <Subhuman> transgaming, "alien"
[12:06] <pppoe_dude> transgaming, sudo apt-get install alien
[12:06] <_jason> !info alien
[12:06] <ubotu> alien: (install non-native packages with dpkg), section admin, is optional. Version: 8.64 (dapper), Packaged size: 101 kB, Installed size: 276 kB
[12:06] <_jason> transgaming: it is in the main repository, use synaptic or some other apt program to install it
[12:06] <amgad> guys, how can i open a udp port on firestarter????
[12:07] <nathan_> Q: I am trying to reinstall Oracle 10g and all a
[12:07] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Ok. Let me kill X and then try an apt-get
[12:07] <nathan_> I get is and error about post install scripts failing.
[12:08] <chr1z> jadacyrus: like i said before, we don't support illegal downloading of things here
[12:09] <Fizzeh> hey, I am new
[12:09] <Larsson-Sweden> How does festival work? I want to type something, and then a voice should be saying it.
[12:09] <Fizzeh> i have a quick question
[12:10] <Fizzeh> I jsut made a cd from the .iso for i386 ubuntu
[12:10] <Fizzeh> andi  have a messed up version of windows on an old computer
[12:10] <Fizzeh> how can i force a boot from CD?
[12:10] <craig> hey, can anyone tell me where i should go to get help with tvtime?
[12:10] <pppoe_dude> Fizzeh, you need to get into your BIOS setup and choose "boot from CD" under "boot" menu
[12:11] <Fizzeh> how do I go about that?
[12:11] <chr1z> craig: tvtime.com
[12:11] <Fizzeh> I have been striclty mac for a while
[12:11] <pppoe_dude> Fizzeh, have you ever booted from CD before?
[12:11] <Fizzeh> yeah, in mac I jsut hold a button
[12:11] <Fizzeh> haha, oo, is it like hold an f8 or something on start?
[12:11] <xcoder> anybody can help me to setup a tvtuner ?
[12:11] <Maje> Fizzeh, if it doesn't automatically boot from CD, you can usually just press a buttom (my computer is F2 or F12) to enter boot menus
[12:11] <craig> yeah, i am there, it doesn't have what i need on it though.  I need help with a specific tv card
[12:11] <pppoe_dude> Fizzeh, you need to press "del" or "f2" or "f10" when it first starts
[12:12] <Fizzeh> ok, thanks
[12:12] <Fizzeh> I will try that
[12:12] <pppoe_dude> Fizzeh, before windows starts
[12:12] <Maje> I was trying to install wireless nic drivers using ndiswrapper, and everything went fine, except iwconfig showed no "wlan0"...but there was no error message, anyone have ideas?
[12:12] <Fizzeh> brilliant, thanks guys
[12:12] <DarkRavenMixage> hey man where does wine saves the dos drive???
[12:12] <amortvigil> hey where can i check the specifications of my cideo card?
[12:13] <kieranDOA> Google?
[12:13] <amortvigil> video card
[12:13] <chr1z> wtf is a cideo card?
[12:13] <chr1z> rofl
[12:13] <chr1z> wow you're dum,b
[12:13] <Maje> Chill, chr1z
[12:13] <wubrgamer> hey guys, MAJOR issues with my ati graphix card, 1st ! i installed the proprietary drivers, they WORK ! (not without bugs though)
[12:13] <wubrgamer> 2) the only virtual terminal i can access is tty7, BUT when i hit ctrl-alt-(1-7) it goes black, and i cannot access ANY vt, or x session, and have to do a hard reset
[12:13] <wubrgamer> 3) well, 2 is really my only issue
[12:13] <amortvigil> hmmm isnt there any terminal thingy?
[12:13] <kieranDOA> Chr1z: works better when you spell dumb right.
[12:14] <Maje> amort, what video card do you have?
[12:14] <amortvigil> :P
[12:14] <AlienX> grr now grub error 25
[12:14] <chr1z> kieranDOA: i missed typed?
[12:14] <chr1z> rofl
[12:14] <wubrgamer> let's all just be friends, and help me with my vid card issues
[12:14] <amortvigil> an ati out 1989
[12:14] <chr1z> kieranDOA: GEE GEE
[12:14] <Maje> try googling that
[12:14] <Maje> see if you find specs
[12:14] <Echelon-H> how can I make XGL start things when it starts?
[12:14] <chr1z> kieranDOA: TRY AGAIN next TIME!
[12:15] <wubrgamer> if anybody is willing to help, you can also join #wubrgamer, please i will leave soon, how do i resolve this vt thing ?
[12:15] <kieranDOA> chr1z? What?
[12:15] <chr1z> kieranDOA: OWNED
[12:15] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Ok.
[12:15] <Fizzeh> for an install, do I want to install in text or oem mode?
[12:15] <BSDinux> kiddy...
[12:15] <kieranDOA> chr1z: Are you an asshole by trade or is it just a hobby?
[12:15] <wubrgamer> (vt=virtual terminal)
[12:15] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, ?
[12:15] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Things are getting really confusing.
[12:15] <chr1z> kieranDOA: neither, unlike ur mom owned
[12:16] <wubrgamer> hey guys, MAJOR issues with my ati graphix card, 1st ! i installed the proprietary drivers, they WORK ! (not without bugs though)
[12:16] <wubrgamer> 2) the only virtual terminal i can access is tty7, BUT when i hit ctrl-alt-(1-7) it goes black, and i cannot access ANY vt, or x session, and have to do a hard reset
[12:16] <wubrgamer> 3) well, 2 is really my only issue
[12:16] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, what happened?
[12:16] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, apt-get didn't reboot the system, but when I attempted to start xchat to let you know how things were going, the entire machine locked up when I clicked the "connect" button
[12:16] <BlueLaguna> hmm, uname -a always shows the kernel version, right?
[12:16] <chr1z> wubrgamer: try not buying a terrible graphics card next time, okay?
[12:16] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, This is getting really strange.
[12:16] <Maje> uname -r
[12:16] <Fizzeh> for an install, do I want to install in text or oem mode?
[12:16] <BlueLaguna> because the only version that apt-get is showing doesn't match uname -a
[12:16] <krazykit> BlueLaguna: uname -r gives ONLY the version
[12:16] <wubrgamer> ? it's integrated
[12:16] <BlueLaguna> for the kernel-headers
[12:16] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, is that on the vesa driver?
[12:16] <wubrgamer> and i'm poor
[12:16] <nathan_> Q: I removed Oracle 10g.  I now want to reinstall it.  I will not work.  I get post-install errors about no file or dir.  Thanks.
[12:16] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Yes
[12:16] <kieranDOA> chr1z: nice comeback, very original, Anyway. i don't feel like argueing with you
[12:16] <Echelon-H> how can I take a screenshot with the console?
[12:17] <ChrisCrepon> alright i'll be back some time later people
[12:17] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, and you restarterd X?
[12:17] <chr1z> argueing?
[12:17] <chr1z> rofl
[12:17] <openBack> What do I have to do to get filenames that have accented letters in them to display properly on my system? Right nw they get replaced with gibberish
[12:17] <Maje> Arguing on the internet is like the Special Olympics.  I restarted X. I did just notice that the dri line wasn't commented out for vesa, but I didn't think vesa used dri.
[12:17] <Echelon-H> how can I take a screenshot with the console (GNOME)?
[12:17] <eugman> Fizzeh, I'm pretty sure you'd want text mode. oem is good if you actually do distribute computers and want certain setings set and more specific ones not.
[12:17] <kieranDOA> pppoe_dude: i just said i wasnt going to argue :-)
[12:17] <BlueLaguna> I'm trying to get the kernel headers, but all I see is kernel-headers-2.4.27-2-*, when uname shows 2.6.15-23-
[12:17] <Fizzeh> thank eugman
[12:17] <wubrgamer> well, does anybody have any suggestions ?
[12:18] <pppoe_dude> kieranDOA, ok
[12:18] <crimsun_> meh.
[12:18] <pppoe_dude> :)
[12:18] <chr1z> pppoe_dude: he's a liar
[12:18] <SurfnKid> where can I check if my Wireless USB adapter has a compatible chip that ubuntu can load??
[12:18] <zenit> BlueLaguna: apt-cache search kernel-headers
[12:18] <squiddle> openBack  rename 'em or try iconv to correct the charset, if it is a not so good supported fs like vfat or ntfs try some other mount parameters
[12:18] <Maje> I was trying to install wireless nic drivers using ndiswrapper, and everything went fine, driver and hardware are recognized in ndis, except iwconfig showed no "wlan0"...but there was no error message, anyone have ideas?
[12:18] <wubrgamer> i'm in a family that NEEDS to have several users with different terminals (me = sudoer, other members of family = windows users, i cannot allow them to muck with my account, too uggy)
[12:19] <BlueLaguna> zenit: I did that, but as I said, it only shows kernel-headers-2.4.27-2-*
[12:19] <Eleaf> hmm
[12:19] <ajnewbold> hi, I just tried to compile something, and was told that I don't have a compiler :-/  what's the easiest way to get one?
[12:19] <spikeb> wubrgamer: accounts after the first one created dont automatically get sudo access
[12:19] <wubrgamer> i know
[12:19] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Perhaps I should give vga a shot?
[12:19] <wubrgamer> but i can't log them on
[12:19] <wubrgamer> not without loggin out
[12:19] <zenit> BlueLaguna: how about linux-kernel-headers?
[12:20] <BlueLaguna> ajnewbold: sudo apt-get install gcc
[12:20] <eugman> wurbgamer, have you tried switch user?
[12:20] <spikeb> in dapper, there's a fast user switcher
[12:20] <ajnewbold> thanks :-)
[12:20] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, yes. there is a chance also that there is a hardware problem. did u have things like this happening in windows?
[12:20] <wubrgamer> yes
[12:20] <_jason> ajmitch_: install build-essential it will give you gcc as well as the other stuff you need to compile
[12:20] <_jason> bah
[12:20] <ubuntu> hello guys
[12:20] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, No. Nothing like this in windows. :(
[12:20] <_jason> ajnewbold: install build-essential it will give you gcc as well as the other stuff you need to compile
[12:20] <BlueLaguna> zenit: I actually have that already installed, but that's an outdated kernel...
[12:20] <gentoo_helper> ubuntu, Hello.
[12:21] <ubuntu> am so happy to be here
[12:21] <DarkRavenMixage> someone knows how to play amr files?
[12:21] <SAM_theman> yo people
[12:21] <ubuntu> its my first time
[12:21] <ajnewbold> _jason: do I do that with the apt-get thing too?
[12:21] <wubrgamer> i know that, BUT i cannot do that without my screen blanking and my pc rendered unusable
[12:21] <_jason> ajnewbold: yep: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[12:21] <MTecknology> ubuntu, i'll be gentle
[12:21] <SAM_theman> ubuntu, what u mean?
[12:21] <BlueLaguna> zenit: I've been using Ubuntu for about a month and was using Breezy before I upgraded to Dapper, so it's possible I had that kernel before
[12:21] <gentoo_helper> ubuntu, Good for you. Hopefully your install went a little more smoothly than mine. :)
[12:21] <ajnewbold> _jason: cool, thanks
[12:21] <zenit> BlueLaguna: sorry, search for linux-headers
[12:21] <eugman> Ubuntu, your title is the default so that much is obvious. Need any help with anything?
[12:21] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, try disabling all the fancy modules but keep 'via' or 's3' as your driver.
[12:21] <Anderson> I am trying to gzip -d a zip file, but I am getting the error gzip: temp2.zip: unknown suffix - - ignored
[12:21] <SAM_theman> well hell he created it :P
[12:21] <ubuntu> i have a problem
[12:21] <zenit> BlueLaguna: that should give some newer ones
[12:21] <SAM_theman> speak son
[12:22] <eugman> !ask
[12:22] <ubotu> For information on how to ask good questions please see http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html The more information you can give the better we can help you. If your going to give output of commands please use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[12:22] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, What counts as a "fancy" module?
[12:22] <wubrgamer> hey guys, MAJOR issues with my ati graphix card, 1st ! i installed the proprietary drivers, they WORK ! (not without bugs though)
[12:22] <wubrgamer> 2) the only virtual terminal i can access is tty7, BUT when i hit ctrl-alt-(1-7) it goes black, and i cannot access ANY vt, or x session, and have to do a hard reset
[12:22] <wubrgamer> 3) well, 2 is really my only issue
[12:22] <ubuntu> am running a live session
[12:22] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, like dri, glx, etc.
[12:22] <SAM_theman> k
[12:22] <ubuntu> i have mounted my NTFS
[12:22] <monteiro> how can i disable a service to startup ?
[12:22] <SAM_theman> I know its a little slow
[12:22] <SAM_theman> ok
[12:22] <BlueLaguna> zenit: ah, thanks
[12:22] <ubuntu> but cant access it
[12:22] <Anderson> I am trying to gzip -d a zip file, but I am getting the error gzip: temp2.zip: unknown suffix - - ignored.  The zip file was made in windows with a program called ALZIP. Does anyone have any ideas why this would not be working?
[12:22] <SAM_theman> o o k
[12:22] <Jowi> wubrgamer: make sure your /etc/inittab looks something like this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15496
[12:22] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Ok. And switch from using visa to using via? Or was "via" a typo?
[12:22] <zenit> BlueLaguna: you are welcome
[12:22] <BlueLaguna> zenit: why are there so many names for the same thing...?
[12:22] <ubuntu> its giving me an error like
[12:22] <eugman> ubuntu, do you want to read from it or write to it.
[12:22] <openBack> squiddle: so what would I use iconv in conjunction with
[12:22] <bullrage> Now that's a rather cool quote.. 'I have mounted my NTFS' hmm
[12:23] <ubuntu> //mnt: error
[12:23] <squiddle> openBack  start with man iconv
[12:23] <SAM_theman> i know right bullrage
[12:23] <wubrgamer> can i safely copy paste that ?
[12:23] <wubrgamer> jowi
[12:23] <SAM_theman> I think its because its a live cd
[12:23] <MTecknology> ntfs, use this command sudo nautilus
[12:23] <MTecknology> ubuntu,** use this command sudo nautilus
[12:23] <ubuntu> ok
[12:23] <Anderson> I am trying to gzip -d a zip file, but I am getting the error gzip: temp2.zip: unknown suffix - - ignored.  I can however open the file with the GUI archive manager. The zip file was made in windows with a program called ALZIP. Does anyone have any ideas why this would not be working?
[12:23] <ubuntu> let me try that staight away
[12:23] <SAM_theman> ubuntu, I think
[12:24] <Jowi> wubrgamer: should be safe. that is the default inittab for me
[12:24] <zenit> BlueLaguna: good question, I don't know.
[12:24] <MTecknology> ubuntu, you should be able to just open it once you are root
[12:24] <eugman> hey MTecknology,.......
[12:24] <eugman> !gksudo
[12:24] <ubotu> Use gksudo to run qt applications with root privileges. Using sudo to start gtk apps can scramble your user account permissions.
[12:24] <DarkRavenMixage> is there an equivalent for the ctrl alt cand of windows?
[12:24] <wubrgamer> alright
[12:24] <ubuntu> yea
[12:24] <DarkRavenMixage> canc
[12:24] <ubuntu> but i cant
[12:24] <gentoo_helper> ubuntu, Listen. I don't know how new you are to IRC, but it is difficult to see your comments among the hundreds of others showing up every few seconds. If you would care to address your remarks to someone (by adding something like gentoo_helper, <-- with a comma) it would be very helpful.
[12:24] <ubuntu> thats why i need a solution to that issue
[12:24] <Jowi> wubrgamer: you can just save it as another file and use "diff" to see the difference between your and mine
[12:24] <MTecknology> eugman, ty for that
[12:24] <SAM_theman> ubuntu, I told u the live cd doesn't let you acess everything
[12:24] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, to via or s3 which ever one was first
[12:24] <openBack> squiddle: I did that, but it seems that it deals with file contents. My issue is only with filenames, as I have mp3s with brazilian artist names, which are incorrect if I leave off the accents and such
[12:24] <Jowi> wubrgamer: btw, I am refferring to the vts
[12:24] <ubuntu> gentoo thanks for that adviceok
[12:24] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Hello? Sorry, but do you want me to keep visa as my driver?
[12:25] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Oh. Use via?
[12:25] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Hmm....Hold on.
[12:25] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, you will have to try diffrent combinations
[12:25] <ubuntu> SAM_theman thanks , i now know why
[12:25] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, you seem to have a cocktail of problems ;)
[12:25] <Jowi> wubrgamer: copy the text without linenumbers of course
[12:25] <SAM_theman> ubuntu, haha little ones..
[12:25] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, No kidding.
[12:25] <wubrgamer> jowi
[12:25] <wubrgamer> what is that file again ?
[12:26] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, I am really wondering why I don't have these same problems in Gentoo. I guess it's just 'cause I'm used to setting things up in Gentoo... :)
[12:26] <Jowi> wubrgamer: /etc/inittab. it describes the VTs
[12:26] <wubrgamer> alright
[12:26] <Jowi> wubrgamer: ...amongst other things
[12:26] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, might be a different version of X or different drivers
[12:26] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, did you use Xfree86 or Xorg in gentoo?'
[12:26] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Yeah. I usually just use generic drivers on ATI or via hardware.
[12:27] <wubrgamer> i'ma gonna reboot
[12:27] <eugman> Jowi, I think that st is redundant.
[12:27] <wubrgamer> gimme a secong
[12:27] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Xorg. Xfree86 is too old.
[12:27] <Jowi> eugman: I am not native english so I believe you :)
[12:27] <ubuntu> SAMtheman, how can i set up diskless clients on my network?
[12:28] <pppoe_dude> brb
[12:28] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Ok.
[12:28] <Warbo> Hmmm. #ubuntu-xgl seems very quiet. Does anyone in here know of issues between Compiz and the root window (chbg specifically)
[12:28] <eugman> Jowi, Either one would work but I think amongst puts more emphasis on location. Then again I could be wrong.
[12:28] <Echelon-H> how can I take screenshot inside XGL?
[12:28] <Jowi> Warbo: composite has that issue at least. I use feh to change background image
[12:29] <openBack> What would I have to do to get filenames that have accented letters in them to display properly on my system? Right now they get replaced with gibberish
[12:29] <Warbo> Echelon-H: The same way as normal (I like doing it from the GIMP)
[12:29] <SAM_theman> Yo guys here is my problem I was telling you hommies about a couple hours back -->(http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15497)
[12:29] <Jowi> !info feh
[12:29] <ubotu> feh: (imlib2 based image viewer), section universe/graphics, is optional. Version: 1.3.4-2 (dapper), Packaged size: 272 kB, Installed size: 528 kB
[12:29] <Warbo> Jowi: Does that change root window or Nautilus?
[12:29] <Echelon-H> Warbo, im sshing. I need to VNC or take a screenshot.
[12:29] <joost_> leave #ubuntu
[12:29] <eugman> Echelon-H, Would Applications->Accessories->Take Screenshot work?
[12:29] <Echelon-H> would ssh get a gui -_-?
[12:29] <Jowi> Warbo: root window as far as I know (I'm not using gnome)
[12:30] <Subhuman> Echelon-H, ssh can do X11Forwarding
[12:30] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Ok. Killing X.
[12:30] <SonicChao> Which is better? GNOME or KDE?
[12:30] <Warbo> Jowi: OK thanks
[12:30] <Subhuman> which forwards the desktop to the remote client.
[12:30] <Jowi> eugman: thanks for the correction
[12:30] <Geoffrey2> just gotta love it, 20 people in #crossover, not one saying a word
[12:30] <Subhuman> SonicChao, itz down to preference , ask at #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:30] <Echelon-H> Subhuman, alright now thats handy. how do I do that?
[12:30] <Warbo> SonicChao: They are both equally good, it is a matter of preference
[12:30] <Subhuman> Echelon-H, im not sure, i jus use vnc
[12:30] <xcoder> anybody can help me to setup a tvtuner pls ?
[12:30] <Subhuman> !xforwarding
[12:30] <ubotu> NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Subhuman
[12:30] <Echelon-H> Subhuman, me too, but I use X11vnc...
[12:31] <Subhuman> Echelon-H, google "forward X in SSH ubuntu"
[12:31] <mythicness> http://www.mirc.net/paste/?718
[12:31] <Subhuman> itz like one setting to change i think.
[12:31] <mythicness> can someone tell me what is wrong with my lilo.conf
[12:31] <Warbo> SonicChao: GNOME was originally made because KDE didn't use open source components (QT), but now QT is open source so there is no argument either way
[12:31] <Jowi> Echelon-H: it's simple: ssh user@hostname -X
[12:31] <mythicness> It just spits out a whole lot of 9A 9A 9A's when I try boot
[12:31] <mythicness> http://www.mirc.net/paste/?718
[12:31] <apokryphos> Warbo: no, it wasn't about whether the source was open, it was about the license being used.
[12:32] <LeoStewart> How can I restore the shortcut Control + F?
[12:32] <Warbo> apokryphos: Well, yes. But in layman's terms...
[12:32] <LeoStewart> For some reason it brings up a weird console..
[12:32] <wubrgamer> alright, didn't work
[12:32] <wubrgamer> jowi
[12:32] <apokryphos> Warbo: they're not the same at all; free is emphatically *not* the same as open source; ask RMS ;-)
[12:32] <kayde> i have a 'serious" problem...
[12:32] <Jowi> wubrgamer: then I have no idea what's up.
[12:33] <eugman> LeoStewart, System-> Preferences -> Keboard Shortcuts may have your solution but I dunno.
[12:33] <Warbo> apokryphos: I was going to write Free (capitalised), but realised that not everyone gets the meaning. QT was free, but not Free :)
[12:33] <Jowi> wubrgamer: might be connected to your video driver perhaps.
[12:33] <wubrgamer> problem with my virtual consoles, they don't exist, and when i try to launch them, the screen will go black, and i have to restart manually my computer
[12:33] <Nathanael> Does anyone here have their RHCE?
[12:33] <LeoStewart> eugman yeah, I tried that, but it wasn't listed there.
[12:33] <kayde> I need help with ubuntu keylogging removal1!
[12:33] <wubrgamer> probl
[12:33] <Echelon-H> Jowi, would work with xgl?
[12:33] <wubrgamer> i JUST installed a driver
[12:33] <wubrgamer> jowi
[12:33] <LeoStewart> eugman any other suggestions? ><
[12:33] <roo_> wubrgamer, i had a similar problem, what worked for me is adding vga=771 to my grub boot parameters
[12:33] <eugman> Appeasing the great penguin god?
[12:33] <wubrgamer> ?
[12:34] <wubrgamer> alright why 771 ?
[12:34] <wubrgamer> roo_
[12:34] <pppoe_dude> back
[12:34] <roo_> wubrgamer, well for me a process of trial and error that worked. i tend not to ask questions after something annoying like that gets fixed :)
[12:34] <hound> Does anyone know why I can't use dpkg-reconfigure to configure xorg.conf? using strace I can see that dpkg doesn't even attempt to md5sum xorg.conf, but I can't figure out what the problem is. I've tried setting the md5sums by hand, and I've dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[12:34] <wubrgamer> what made it 771 ?
[12:34] <wubrgamer> aack
[12:35] <roo_> wubrgamer, its a vga console mode, to do with resolution and colour depth
[12:35] <wubrgamer> alrght
[12:35] <wubrgamer> well i'll try that
[12:35] <roo_> wubrgamer, btw when you switch to VC1, does ctrl_alt_f7 not bring X back up?
[12:35] <Nathanael> As a professional, I am considering replacing Ubutnu on my work laptop with FC5 to encourage familiarity with the distro, but as an individual, I prefer ubutnu...
[12:35] <Nathanael> Moving towards an RHCE
[12:35] <roo_> wubrgamer, 771 is 800x600 and 773 is 1024x768
[12:36] <Jowi> Echelon-H: ssh -X (capital x) will let you log in with ssh but will also allow you to run graphical *applications* remotely. It's mostly useful over a fast line/local network.
[12:36] <wubrgamer> what is 1152*864
[12:36] <wubrgamer> roo_
[12:36] <kayde> I neeed help with removing a keylogger/mouse logger from mo linux pc!!!
[12:36] <wubrgamer> ??/
[12:36] <roo_> wubrgamer, no idea..
[12:36] <eugman> Kayde, how do you know it is there?
[12:37] <roo_> wubrgamer, google for "vga mode 771" and stuff?
[12:37] <Echelon-H> Jowi, it says somethimg about wrong authentication and .Xauthority or something...
[12:37] <Echelon-H> how can i fix this?
[12:37] <AK7> got another noob question: what's the command to start X window system from command line?
[12:37] <pppoe_dude> AK7, X
[12:37] <amortvigil> where can i see what my screen color bitrate is?
[12:37] <chowells2> AK7: startx
[12:37] <kayde> eugman, a warning popup came, saying "warning a malicios mouse logging/keaboard logging something has been detectted" i have the screen shots
[12:38] <AK7> thx
[12:38] <wubrgamer> startx
[12:38] <adaran> hello everyone. is it possible that 3d accelartion is enabled, even though "direct rendering" is reported as "no" with $ glxinfo ?
[12:38] <eugman> Just checking. I wish I could help you but dealin with that stuff is too high level for me.
[12:38] <wubrgamer> what driver is glx ?
[12:38] <yggdrasil> well i kinda fixed it
[12:38] <kayde> aaaughhh1
[12:38] <yggdrasil> at least kde isnt crashing now
[12:38] <yggdrasil> dont know how to fix my gnome
[12:38] <twysted> is there a way in dapper to let a normal user read from a ntfs drive?
[12:38] <Echelon-H> how can I fix the authentication?
[12:38] <pppoe_dude> kayde, was that while browsing the internet?
[12:38] <eugman> wurbgamer, binary nvidia iirc.
[12:38] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Oook. This is, without a doubt, a graphics driver issue.
[12:39] <kayde> pppoe_dude, nope,
[12:39] <yggdrasil> wasup
[12:39] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, anything new?
[12:39] <LeeJunFan> anyone know of a util I can cat text to and create a .ps file for later printing?
[12:39] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, The same reboot problem I just told you about with apt-get was caused by my clicking the "connect" button in Xchat.
[12:39] <kayde> pppoe_dude, ummm i was opennig network managment tool
[12:39] <kayde> pppoe_dude, i have screen shots
[12:39] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, In fact, opening "too many windows" seems to lock the machine up entirely while clicking on too many buttons seems to reboot the machine.
[12:40] <tuv> which version of ipw2200 driver does dapper's kernel has?
[12:40] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, ya. nothing new with the via/s3/disbaling glx/dri/etc
[12:40] <roo_> LeeJunFan, abiword can save as pdf.. ?
[12:40] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Well yes actually.
[12:40] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, This is what I found out.
[12:40] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, oh ok. so nothing "better" ;)
[12:40] <roo_> LeeJunFan, otherwise you use tetex (latex), but thats more complicated than cat/copy..
[12:40] <wubrgamer> what is the alternative to getting 3d accell on an ati card without downloading the proprietary drivers ? also i need openGL
[12:40] <LeeJunFan> roo_: I need command line.
[12:40] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, the savage and vesa drivers are the only two that will drive X properly.
[12:40] <acidjedi> !gparted
[12:40] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, you don't have your old xorg.conf files by any chance do you?
[12:40] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, I have not yet tried commenting out anything other than dri.
[12:41] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, I might have a copy...
[12:41] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Let me look.
[12:41] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, ok
[12:41] <roo_> LeeJunFan, http://www.pathcom.com/~kujira/pdf2.htm
[12:41] <LeeJunFan> roo_: yeah, I was hoping of something simpler than tetex.
[12:41] <roo_> LeeJunFan, that should get you close/there.
[12:41] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Be warned. I need to open an xterm to look and it might lock up the machine. :(
[12:41] <ompaul> gentoo_helper, question, desktop?
[12:41] <pppoe_dude> haha
[12:41] <Jowi> Echelon-H: have a look here and see (for me it just worked) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AdvancedOpenSSH
[12:41] <acidjedi> Hmm, has anyone here used gparted and could help me with it?
[12:42] <LeeJunFan> roo_: yeah, that's it! Thanks. I think I used enscript to do this a long time ago for a fax gateway I setup.
[12:42] <eugman> acidjedi, I suggest you burna  livecd and use gparted from that so you are certain the drives you are affecting are not mounted.
[12:42] <roo_> LeeJunFan, ace, good luck :)
[12:42] <gentoo_helper> ompaul, What do you mean? Yes. This is a desktop machine. Installed from the ubuntu 6.06 alternate install CD for i386.
[12:42] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Sorry, the oldest copy I have shows me as using vesa, and I was originally using savage.
[12:43] <ompaul> gentoo_helper, got another video card to test it with?
[12:43] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Quite frankly the both lock up, so there isn't much difference.
[12:43] <kayde> i need help with synamptic1!!!!!!!!
[12:43] <gentoo_helper> ompaul, No. :(
[12:43] <gentoo_helper> kayde, Is it crashing?
[12:43] <eugman> kayde, specific if you please.
[12:43] <jake> ok heres the deal ... i cant install irssi on my ubuntu server edition. Its either breezy or hoary. Trying using apt. Whats my next step?
[12:43] <kayde> eugman, can i pm u?
[12:43] <acidjedi> eugman: when I try to use gparted now, it doesn't allow me to resize any drives or anything. If I boot from the live cd it will?
[12:43] <eugman> Sure
[12:43] <wubrgamer> so guys
[12:43] <wubrgamer> problem with my virtual consoles, they don't exist, and when i try to launch them, the screen will go black, and i have to restart manually my computer
[12:43] <bullrage> anybody got any good anagrams for incredibly thick computer users?
[12:44] <byen> Hey guys, I just installed Beagle... but i cant run it... how do i run it?
[12:44] <wubrgamer> please help
[12:44] <byen> can someone help
[12:44] <roo_> wubrgamer, did that not work then?
[12:44] <eugman> Acidjedi, no that's a saftey precaution. Do the drives have a lock symbol to the left?
[12:44] <kayde> egentoo_helper, no, i have an error messag
[12:44] <wubrgamer> nope
[12:44] <Andronicus> can I use itunes?
[12:44] <wubrgamer> nope
[12:44] <acidjedi> Yes
[12:44] <wubrgamer> i've tried
[12:44] <wubrgamer> no, wine doesn't really work with it
[12:44] <twysted> itunes will work in wine
[12:44] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, I guess I could start systematically commenting out the "fancy" features in my xorg.conf and see if that makes a difference.
[12:44] <wubrgamer> no it doesn't
[12:44] <wubrgamer> i've tried
[12:44] <spikeb> twysted: some of it will
[12:44] <twysted> really
[12:44] <twysted> is that why im running it right now
[12:44] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Let me give that a shot. I'll kill X and then I'll get back to you.
[12:44] <adaran> can anyone tell me how to get the ati DRI modules to work (not the fglrx stuff?). i can't find a decent howto for that
[12:44] <twysted> just because you couldnt get it to work doesnt mean it WONT work
[12:44] <Andronicus> can I use itunes?  if so, HOW on Ubunutu?
[12:44] <roo_> acidjedi, are you using 'sudo gparted' yeah?
[12:45] <Andronicus> twysted: only in wine?
[12:45] <spikeb> adaran: picking ati as your driver for x should do it
[12:45] <adaran> spikeb, yeah, but i get no "direct rendering"
[12:45] <twysted> Andronicus install wine =)
[12:45] <Andronicus> is there any way to use itunes besides going through wine?
[12:45] <adaran> spikeb, and ~ 200 fps in glxgears
[12:45] <Andronicus> twysted: is there any way to use itunes besides going through wine?
[12:45] <openBack> I use ubuntu on my laptop with a 1200x800, and used 855resolution to get it nice in X, but is it possible to get the console to use the full resolution also?
[12:45] <acidjedi> roo_: It asks for a pass when I start it up, so probably
[12:45] <twysted> nope gotta use wine
[12:45] <spikeb> hmm
[12:45] <Andronicus> twysted: NO other way?
[12:45] <LeoStewart> Andronicus: why do you need to use iTunes?
[12:45] <adaran> spikeb, however, i find the following line my Xorg.0.log : (II) RADEON(0): Acceleration enabled
[12:45] <AK7> Andronicus: it's a windows app... only wine or another windows emulator
[12:45] <spikeb> adaran: check out your xorg.conf and make sure dri on the list of modules to be loaded
[12:45] <adaran> spikeb, so i'm wondering what i'm missing
[12:46] <eugman> Acidjedi, if the drive or partitoion ahs a lock it means it is currently mounted or "in use" and would be unsafe to alter untill you unmounted it.
[12:46] <twysted> as far as i know, nope
[12:46] <Andronicus> LeoStewart: if you ask, you wouldnt understand the answer
[12:46] <Andronicus> AK7: ok
[12:46] <acidjedi> I'll just boot from live, thanks
[12:46] <kayde> LOL
[12:46] <adaran> spikeb, it is. here's my xorg.conf, if you want to take a look: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15494
[12:46] <Andronicus> hasnt been ported?
[12:46] <spikeb> adaran: ok
[12:46] <spikeb> adaran: i'll compare it to mine and see what the diff is
[12:46] <LeoStewart> Adronicus: are there no alternatives for the reason you're using it?
[12:46] <adaran> spikeb, thanks
[12:46] <sybariten> "E: Package irssi has no installation candidate" .... i normally dont have much apt-get problems. What do i do next? Searched the forums.
[12:47] <AK7> It's not open-source, and apple dosn't have great incentive to port for 3% of desktop users... and 3% that isn't fond of DRM :)
[12:47] <adaran> spikeb, d'oh, that was Xorg.0.log
[12:47] <kayde> Fujitsu, hello :-)
[12:47] <adaran> spikeb, one second =)
[12:47] <twysted> Andronicus if your wanting to use your ipod with itunes theres ways to do that as well but i dont know how =)
[12:47] <spikeb> adaran: hehe i just noticed
[12:47] <wubrgamer> problem with my virtual consoles, they don't exist, and when i try to launch them, the screen will go black, and i have to restart manually my computer
[12:47] <Fujitsu> Hi, kayde.
[12:48] <tuv> which version of ipw2200 driver does dapper's kernel have?
[12:48] <adaran> spikeb, getting a bit late, uploading the xorg.conf now
[12:48] <Fujitsu> kayde, join us in #ubuntu-au :)
[12:48] <spikeb> adaran: okie dokie
[12:48] <LeoStewart> Adronicus: you could try gtkpod, banshee, wine, crossover office, and/or VMWare
[12:48] <roo_> tuv, 1.1.1
[12:48] <spikeb> gtkpod is horrible
[12:48] <scud> is there a vpn client for linux that supports cisco vpn profiles?
[12:48] <SurfnKid> Question:
[12:48] <krazykit> Andronicus: amarok does ipod stuff too
[12:48] <wubrgamer> problem with my virtual consoles, they don't exist, and when i try to launch them, the screen will go black, and i have to restart manually my computer
[12:49] <tuv> roo_, great..
[12:49] <krazykit> as long as you install kioslaves, Andronicus
[12:49] <ompaul> scud run past the cisco and use OpenVPN
[12:49] <roo_> tuv, not working for you?
[12:49] <ompaul> :-)
[12:49] <adaran> spikeb, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15499
[12:49] <SurfnKid> when i run lsmod I cn see usbcore    129668 3 prism2_usb  does this mean my kernel supports it?
[12:49] <Mysta_> Hello, how do I change the hostname of a machine??????
[12:49] <LeoStewart> Does anyone know why when I press control+f it opens xterm?  And does anyone know how to stop this??
[12:49] <twysted> wubrgamer saw the first time wait for an answer
[12:49] <adaran> spikeb, pretty short, made by dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:49] <scud> ompau: my work uses cisco vpn. i was wondering if an oss app supported using cisco vpn profiles
[12:50] <scud> i would like to vpn to work from my ubuntu install
[12:50] <tuv> roo_, haven't upgraded yet.. i did not upgrade the kernel for a long time in breezy since its ipw2200 didn't used to work with wpa.. i had to install ipw2200 driver manually each time i upgrade the kernel
[12:50] <twysted> scud, more then likely not alot of that cisco vpn stuff is closed
[12:50] <roo_> tuv, ah, ok :
[12:50] <tuv> roo_, now that it's pretty new, i'm upgrading to dapper and we'll see how it goes
[12:50] <beerockxs> I only get about 65 fps in glxgears, although DRI is enabled. Radeon 8500, using the open source driver. What's wrong?
[12:50] <spikeb> adaran: try changing "ati" to "radeon"
[12:50] <wubrgamer> problem with my virtual consoles, they don't exist, and when i try to launch them, the screen will go black, and i have to restart manually my computer
[12:50] <spikeb> adaran: that's all i can think of
[12:50] <roo_> tuv, make sure you have the new ipw2200 driver on hd somewhere/cd in case it doesnt work and you need to compile it.
[12:50] <Fujitsu> scud, vpnc.
[12:51] <scud> cool
[12:51] <scud> thanks
[12:51] <Fujitsu> scud, it requires a different config file.
[12:51] <Ernz> Hello room. I was wondering: I have an old laptop, with 80MB (wow!) of Physical RAM. This should be enough to run Ubuntu on. The problem I have is that the laptop BIOS does not allow boot from CD (Which Ubuntu is...) Is there a way I can boot from floppy disk to start with CD support, and then load Ubuntu installer from CD?
[12:51] <Fujitsu> scud, but it's fairly easy to convert them. I did it a couple of days ago for my father.
[12:51] <adaran> spikeb, tried already =)
[12:51] <tuv> roo_, i did :) just downloaded the driver and the firmware in case..
[12:51] <spikeb> adaran: i dunno then
[12:51] <adaran> can you upload your glxinfo ?
[12:51] <odin__> I had some trouble updating ubuntu and now my screen is stuck in a different display dimension, though I'm not sure if that's the only problem
[12:51] <DarkJesus> Everyone join #splendid
[12:51] <Mysta_> Hello, how do I change the hostname of a machine??????
[12:51] <twysted> DarkJesus>  go to hell
[12:51] <DarkJesus> It's about ubuntu, but less crowded
[12:51] <roo_> tuv, heh, good luck dude, im sure you'll be pleased with dapper.
[12:51] <wubrgamer> rightsry
[12:51] <Fujitsu> DarkJesus, please don't.
[12:51] <krazykit> Ernz: i think a grub or lilo floppy ought to do that.  i don't know the specifics though.
[12:51] <wubrgamer> l8r
[12:51] <wubrgamer> i g2g now
[12:51] <tuv> roo_, thanks
[12:51] <odin__> I'm wondering if I should try to downgrade back to Breezy Badger
[12:52] <Ernz> A grub boot disk krazykit?
[12:52] <roo_> Mysta_, edit /etc/hostname?
[12:52] <cyphase> anyone know why an iBook wouldn't be booting from the dapper live cd?
[12:52] <krazykit> odin__: it's a good way to completely nuke your system
[12:52] <cyphase> i tried holding and tapping the C key
[12:52] <semotrucker> can anyone help a newbie in here
[12:52] <twysted> Ernz> there is a opensource bootloader floppy out there i just cannot remember it off the top of my mind, i used it all the time with older machines search sf.net for it
[12:52] <Mysta_> roo_: let me check, thanks
[12:52] <odin__> krazykit:  that doesn't sound very pleasant
[12:52] <roo_> semotrucker, you should just ask the question :)_
[12:52] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, hostname <new name>
[12:52] <krazykit> odin__: it'd be easier to reinstall
[12:52] <Ernz> Ill have a look'see twysted. BRB
[12:53] <odin__> krazykit:  save for the file backup I'd need to do; I heard people saying how they upgraded and downgraded ubuntu all the time
[12:53] <semotrucker> i just installed the newest version and this is my first time useing linux
[12:53] <semotrucker> i'm lost on installing software that i already had
[12:53] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude: does it require a restart?
[12:53] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Ok. This looks pretty bad.
[12:53] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, it will change your hostname for that terminal, and if you restart it will change it for the system
[12:53] <krazykit> odin__: well, i wouldn't suggest it.  various config files have differing defaults and syntaxes between version.  i think it'd be a huge pain in the butt to downgrade.
[12:54] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, On the one hand, I now have a reproducible error.
[12:54] <DAC1138> cyphase, try holding the command key and C
[12:54] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, lol
[12:54] <imagery> after I added some hard drives, grub gives error 17 instead of booting. I booted up the kubuntu liveCD and ran grub-install /dev/sdb (that is the HD with kubuntu on it). no change, so I booted up the liveCD again and mounted sdb1 (I only have one partition), chrooted in and ran grub-install /dev/sdb. This gives me "not found or not a block device". fdisk -l returns "cannot open /proc/partitions"
[12:54] <DAC1138> cyphase, when you reboot, that is
[12:54] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, On the other hand, it doesn't back up the "apt-get is bugged" or the "X is misconfigured" hypotheses.
[12:54] <roo_> semotrucker, what do yo need to install?
[12:54] <krazykit> odin__: basically, i don't know how smart apt/dpkg is about config versioning, if it'll keep a newre config or if it'll use the default.
[12:54] <Warbo> twysted: Is there any way to get GRUB on a floppy or CD to chainload another GRUB on a device unsupported by the BIOS? (I currently boot my USB hard drive from a CD)
[12:54] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, And before you ask, the DRI section at the bottom is in fact commented out.
[12:54] <cjones> how do you convert a wmv to a dv?
[12:55] <odin__> krazykit:  well might there be any way to fix my display?  I think it may have gotten messed up cuz I'm using xinerama for dual-monitor display, but that wasn't the only error message I got when it was updating
[12:55] <semotrucker> i am trying to install a game called second life i downloaded unpacked it but i'm lost from there
[12:55] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, lol
[12:55] <krazykit> Warbo: technically, you don't even need to chainload, you can boot straight from that
[12:55] <cyphase> nope
[12:55] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, What's so funny?
[12:55] <DAC1138> cjones, mencoder
[12:55] <roo_> semotrucker, where did it unpack to?
[12:55] <krazykit> odin__: sorry, i don't know anything about xinerama.
[12:55] <semotrucker> desktop
[12:55] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, nothing :)
[12:55] <Warbo> krazykit: That is what I do, but if I can chainload then I don't have to rewrite the disc every time I upgrade my kernel
[12:55] <cjones> dac1138 can i apt get that
[12:55] <pianoboy3333> HELP!!!
[12:55] <DAC1138> cjones, go to freshmeat.net for a frontend to mencoder if the command line is too daunting
[12:55] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, im trying to think of other causes
[12:55] <roo_> semotrucker, is there not a install/setup program in there?
[12:55] <DAC1138> cjones, sure can. mencoder is included with MPlayer
[12:56] <DAC1138> cjones, just make sure you have the win32 video codecs installed
[12:56] <cjones> oh i already have mplayer
[12:56] <pianoboy3333> Oh fuckin god help me
[12:56] <pianoboy3333> please, someone!
[12:56] <semotrucker> none that i can find but like i said i'm totaly new to linux i've been useing windows way to long
[12:56] <Warbo> krazykit: I actually wrote a guide in the Wiki for it as well :) (BootFromUSB)
[12:56] <krazykit> Warbo: ah... then chainloading should work.  it's just not the most elegant solution.  i assume this i san old machine that doesn't have a BIOS update?
[12:56] <imagery> after I added some hard drives, grub gives error 17 instead of booting. I booted up the kubuntu liveCD and ran grub-install /dev/sdb (that is the HD with kubuntu on it). no change, so I booted up the liveCD again and mounted sdb1 (I only have one partition), chrooted in and ran grub-install /dev/sdb. This gives me "not found or not a block device". fdisk -l returns "cannot open /proc/partitions"
[12:56] <pianoboy3333> I'm sorry for cursing, just someone!
[12:56] <krazykit> pianoboy3333: just ask the question
[12:56] <eugman> pianoboy3333, what the problem?
[12:56] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Here's how you reproduce the error: open up xterm and start installing something with apt-get. Then load up an app that has lots of shiny buttons (or at least on or two buttons) like Xchat.  JUST ASK!
[12:56] <odin__> oh, hey, does anybody know how to get to a laptop's BIOS?  it wont seem to let me get to it on this P2 Compaq Armada 1750
[12:56] <roo_> odin__, i usually hammer as many keys as i can :)
[12:57] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, *click and *one or two buttons
[12:57] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, lo... that is what's funny. but i guess it is reproducible
[12:57] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, i suggest filing a bug report
[12:57] <krazykit> odin__: compaq?  i think it's either f2 or f12
[12:57] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude: after running that command, i cannot restart. I receive an error stating, "sudo: unable to lookup atl-vmware01 via gethostbyname()"
[12:57] <Warbo> krazykit: Well it is a few years old. Booting into GRUB from a floppy or CD and trying to access the USB hard drive is unsuccessful though, so I think GRUB relies on the BIOS for getting it's device information
[12:57] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, This is in no way funny. The fact that my last Ubuntu install had errors just as serious (on a nvidia card, no less) is really not giving me a good imperssion. :(
[12:57] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, You honestly think this is a bug?
[12:57] <eugman> Just calm down and clearly state your problem. This is the ubuntu support channel, not cleo's help hotline. I'm sure a bunch of us will be glad to help you pianoboy if you tell us what the matter is.
[12:58] <pianoboy3333> I just tried to install xubuntu on to an external drive, but it wrote over my main drive, and formatted the backup on my external drive too
[12:58] <odin__> krazykit:  all the function keys don't work, the best I can get is the boot menu for Windows 2000
[12:58] <pianoboy3333> it's all gone
[12:58] <pianoboy3333> am I totally screwed?
[12:58] <krazykit> odin__: what about escape?
[12:58] <D1> what do you guys think is the fastest audio play between the two? rhythmbox or banshee?
[12:58] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, or bad hardware... im not sure.  Likely. I don't think there is much in the way of undeletion with linux.
[12:58] <D1> I mean, less memory intensive, sorry.
[12:58] <roo_> pianoboy3333, did you triple check the parition part of the install?
[12:58] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, i've never had such problems (lockups, reboots) with ubuntu
[12:58] <gentoo_helper> rixth, No? Do you have an S3 Inc prosavage card using the savage driver with DRI enabled?
[12:59] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Then I must be very unlucky. :)
[12:59] <Fujitsu> pianoboy3333, there is some possibility to recover.
[12:59] <rixth> gentoo_helper, man, do you haVE A pENTIUM ii OR SOMETHING?
[12:59] <rixth> E, caps.
[12:59] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: like?
[12:59] <Warbo> pianoboy3333: If it was merely formatted then you could probably get your data back, but if something else has been written to it then you are screwed (either by losing your data or by paying extortionate fees for data recovery experts)
[12:59] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, afraid so ';(
[12:59] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Just so you know the Kubuntu install (that I had difficulties with) was on a different machine. I may have mentioned that or something.
[12:59] <eugman> Now , pianoboy3333, how did the stuff go away? Did you delete it? did it disappear?
[12:59] <pianoboy3333> ok
[12:59] <pianoboy3333> now
[12:59] <pianoboy3333> this is what happened
[12:59] <gentoo_helper> rixth, No. It's an Athlon XP 2400+
[12:59] <rixth> pianoboy3333, stop using the drive NOW
[12:59] <pianoboy3333> so I am, and was on the xubuntu live cd
[12:59] <pianoboy3333> I'm not on the drive now
[12:59] <rixth> pianoboy3333, have you got more than one PC in your household?
[01:00] <pianoboy3333> yes
[01:00] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, sorry but im all out of ideas
[01:00] <pianoboy3333> but I'm on the live cd now
[01:00] <roo_> pianoboy3333, what filesystem types were the partitions wiped?
[01:00] <pianoboy3333> ext3
[01:00] <pianoboy3333> hold on
[01:00] <pianoboy3333> so
[01:00] <g0dchild> I've installed vsftpd - how can i allow users to access files - after creating users for them that is-
[01:00] <pianoboy3333> lemme tell the story
[01:00] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Well...
[01:00] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, how are you restarting?
[01:00] <pianoboy3333> I have an external drive partitioned with a 40 gb ext3, another 30 gb ext3, a fat32 and a linux-swap
[01:01] <Warbo> pianoboy3333: ext3 is a bit harder to recover than fat, since it constantly moves data around to stop fragmentation. However, I know it is easier to recover than ReiserFS
[01:01] <g0dchild> :S
[01:01] <rixth> pianoboy3333, http://www.stellarinfo.com/linux-data-recovery.htm Windows program. Totally excellent. Try it out, the demo version will allow you to see what files can be recovered.
[01:01] <pianoboy3333> ok, hold on
[01:01] <pianoboy3333> lemme finish
[01:01] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, I will systematically comment out extra features until the error can no longer be reproduced. If it can be reproduced, then I'll let you know (if you're still here). At that point I may consider putting in a bugreport.
[01:01] <pianoboy3333> no
[01:01] <pianoboy3333> it blew my ubuntu partition
[01:01] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, sounds good! :)
[01:01] <pianoboy3333> I'm mortally screwed
[01:01] <pianoboy3333> but let me finish
[01:01] <cjones> dac1138 ok so how do i do it in console?
[01:01] <pianoboy3333> so
[01:01] <g0dchild> gack, i am gonna go crazy...i know its a bit selfish of me...but i'd appreciate anyone who can help me to get this done with in a matter of minutes- thats all i have :D
[01:01] <Mysta_> stop floodin' the channel plz
[01:01] <Warbo> rixth: Ha. Sounds like a good marketing plan, show you your stuff but make you pay to get it back
[01:01] <pianoboy3333> Warbo: rixth: roo_: I got onto the live cd
[01:01] <Fujitsu> pianoboy3333, have you got enough space on another computer to make a full 40GB backup of that partition?
[01:01] <pianoboy3333> Warbo: rixth: roo_: or desktop cd as they call it now
[01:02] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: it's gone
[01:02] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, One last thing.
[01:02] <pianoboy3333> but yes
[01:02] <Fujitsu> pianoboy3333, the partition isn't gone...
[01:02] <rixth> !newline
[01:02] <ubotu> newline is, like, a newline is not punctuation!
[01:02] <Andronicus> I installed Breezy months ago!  How can I upgrade to the Latest version?
[01:02] <Andronicus> is Breezy the latest still?
[01:02] <Fujitsu> ubotu, tell Andronicus about upgrade
[01:02] <Andronicus> if I may ask; does anyone here make a full time income using Ebay?
[01:02] <gnuNewb007> I have the AMD64 install of Dapper running, is there anyway I can run x86 32bit programs?
[01:02] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude: after running that command, i cannot restart. I receive an error stating, "sudo: unable to lookup atl-vmware01 via gethostbyname()"
[01:02] <Warbo> AA! My super (windows) key doesn't work in Compiz!
[01:02] <pianoboy3333> Warbo: rixth: roo_: Fujitsu: no, I have the first partition on my main sata drive as 47 gb ext3, the first on the external as ext3 and 40 gb
[01:02] <roo_> ubotu, heh :)
[01:02] <ubotu> roo_: Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:02] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, I believe the motherboard has a via chipset (north bridge) on board. I have had trouble in the past with via boards when it comes to sound (onboard sound failed on my other machine), perhaps this is another onboard chipset failure?
[01:02] <adaran> is there anything like opengl-config oder gentoo's eselect gl on ubuntu?
[01:02] <Polibio> buenas
[01:02] <Fujitsu> pianoboy3333, you may wish to try to install the `autopsy' package.
[01:03] <kbrooks> Anderson: we talk dapper, not breezy
[01:03] <Andronicus> is Dapper the latest stable version?
[01:03] <kbrooks> Anderson: yes
[01:03] <Andronicus> Fujitsu: is Dapper the latest stable version?
[01:03] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Though if that's the case, then perhaps I should be having these problems in windows.
[01:03] <Mysta_> Andronicus: yep
[01:03] <Fujitsu> Andronicus, yes.
[01:03] <Andronicus> Mysta_: so I can safely upgrade to that?
[01:03] <pianoboy3333> Warbo: rixth: roo_: Fujitsu: I chose a drive which was 41 gb, but the 1 may have been a 7 now that I think
[01:03] <rixth> pianoboy3333, I have already told you my advice. Load Windows onto a computer, plug your drive in to that computer as slave, then use Stellar Phoenix to have a lookie.
[01:03] <Andronicus> Fujitsu: so I can safely upgrade to that?
[01:03] <pianoboy3333> FUCKIN NOW!
[01:03] <Fujitsu> kbrooks, what do you mean we don't talk Breezy!?
[01:03] <Mysta_> Andronicus: I'd say so
[01:03] <Andronicus> Mysta_: have you?
[01:03] <Fujitsu> pianoboy3333, watch the language please.
[01:03] <rixth> pianoboy3333, keep it cool.
[01:03] <pianoboy3333> rixth: but there is the xubuntu I installed on it
[01:03] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, ok then change your hostname back to what it was
[01:03] <pianoboy3333> I don't know what
[01:03] <pianoboy3333> to do
[01:03] <pianoboy3333> I think it's lost
[01:04] <pianoboy3333> gone gone
[01:04] <Fujitsu> pianoboy3333, please install the `autopsy' package.
[01:04] <Polibio> in the callendar on the upper right corner of gnome, how can I make tha Sun(days) appear on the right instead of on the left?
[01:04] <rixth> pianoboy3333, I TOLD YOU WHAT TO DO.
[01:04] <kbrooks> pianoboy3333: WHAT HELP DO U WANT
[01:04] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: I can't on the xubuntu desktop
[01:04] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, then, go to system>admin>networking and under general tab change the hostname
[01:04] <pianoboy3333> it can't find it
[01:04] <rixth> pianoboy3333, if you aren't willing to even listen, don't ask for help.
[01:04] <pianoboy3333> I am
[01:04] <pianoboy3333> but
[01:04] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude: I have no GUI
[01:04] <Fujitsu> pianoboy3333, you need to enable the universe repository.
[01:04] <kbrooks> rixth: CUT THE CAPS OR I'LL CONTINUE CAPPING UP ON YOU
[01:04] <pianoboy3333> but...
[01:04] <Fujitsu> !enter
[01:04] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[01:04] <Andronicus> what does "gksudo "update-manager -d" do?
[01:04] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: ok, how
[01:04] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, hostname <old hostname>
[01:04] <kbrooks> !universe
[01:04] <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.
[01:04] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: I never really played with sources.list
[01:04] <Fujitsu> pianoboy3333, open up Synaptic...
[01:04] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Ok. I'll commence with the commenting.
[01:04] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, :(
[01:05] <troy_s> pianoboy333:  final warning.  what is done is done, so panicking will accomplish nothing.  listen to the advice in a calm manner and try what they suggest.
[01:05] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, good lucj
[01:05] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude: I get that error when I try and change it back
[01:05] <Daynah> Yikes! Breezy was fine for me, I used the update manager and Dapper started freezing. I had already backed up, so I go to do a reinstall and it's freezing again. Have you guys heard of this problem before? I'm a full switch, so I'm a friend's computer. :)
[01:05] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Thanks man. :)
[01:05] <SurfnKid> where is the Linux Source Tree??
[01:05] <amortvigil> hey is there somethign special to do when im going to chgange the vidio card? or can i just turn it off put the old one out and the other one in?
[01:05] <rixth> Stellar Phoenix supports recovery from :a) Deleted Files / Folders b) Missing Files / Folders c) Formatted Partitions d) Lost Partitions e) Re-partitioned Logical drives
[01:05] <Blissex> SurfnKid: in the Garden of Delights of course.
[01:05] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, are you doing "sudo hostname <name>"?
[01:05] <kieranDOA> Reconfigure x and install drivers.
[01:05] <rixth> Try it pianoboy3333. It is probably your best bet.
[01:05] <troy_s> amortvigil:  put new card in, install probable proprietary drivers and fly.
[01:05] <roo_> SurfnKid, 'sudo apt-get install linux-headers' always works for me
[01:05] <cjones> once you download a program how do you install it ?
[01:05] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: ok, I'm installing the autopsy package
[01:05] <SurfnKid> Blissex, deep in the forest :P
[01:05] <kbrooks> i can read minds.
[01:06] <Fujitsu> pianoboy3333, good.
[01:06] <kbrooks> i'll tell you what you want.
[01:06] <Daynah> Happiness, and anger, is all in the mind, peeps.  It may amuse many people. :)
[01:06] <SurfnKid> roo_, do i have to be online? im trying to install the wifi card, no network
[01:06] <amortvigil> okay
[01:06] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude: yea I am
[01:06] <gnuNewb007> does anyone have any idea how to get opera working with an amd64
[01:06] <SurfnKid> roo_,  will it get it from the cd
[01:06] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, so what exactly is wrong right now?
[01:06] <roo_> SurfnKid, yup, it should be on the cd.
[01:06] <Warbo> gnuNewb007: 32bit chroot
[01:06] <Dreamglider> can anyone tell me why the mplayer plugin for mozilla plays the video in an external window and not inside firefox ?
[01:06] <SurfnKid> grr
[01:06] <troy_s> gnunewb007:  just an opinion, try supporting an open source browser and making it better.
[01:06] <SurfnKid> says it couldnt find packag
[01:06] <gnuNewb007> opera is open source
[01:07] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: I'm encountering extreme lag, hold on
[01:07] <Fujitsu> pianoboy3333, OK.
[01:07] <Warbo> gnuNewb007: No it isn't. It is gratis, but not libre
[01:07] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude: If i try and restart I receive the error stated above, and if I try and change my hostname back, I still get the same error
[01:07] <gnuNewb007> oh
[01:07] <roo_> SurfnKid, not on the cd?
[01:07] <gnuNewb007> thanks for the info
[01:07] <pianoboy3333> I'm okish
[01:07] <Blissex> SurfnKid: you need the binary kernel sources package.
[01:07] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, and that happened after you did hostname <new hostname>?
[01:07] <SurfnKid> roo_, might have to enable universe and multiverse but i dont know
[01:07] <gnuNewb007> alright well i have no problem with firefox, i was just curios
[01:07] <codeyman> hey could anyone get the bluetooth to work on dapper?
[01:07] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude: yes
[01:07] <cjones> once you download a program how do you install it ? whats the "exe"
[01:07] <Polibio> in the calendar on the upper right corner of Ubuntu gnome, how can I make that Sun(days) to be the last day of the week instead of the first?t?
[01:07] <Blissex> SurfnKid: it should be on the CD.
[01:07] <Warbo> gnuNewb007: Anyway, there is a guide somewhere.... (I walked a mate through it over MSN the other day)
[01:07] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude only command i ran
[01:07] <gnuNewb007> what about the flash plugin with mozilla
[01:07] <troy_s> gnunewb007:  give epiphany a try perhaps.
[01:07] <roo_> SurfnKid, can't plug in to ethernet to install wifi?
[01:07] <SurfnKid> Blissex, yes i think i do. Will i be able to get that on the main CD/DVD
[01:08] <flo> does anyone have a hint on how can i get a trust usb tablet to work corectly on my dapper?
[01:08] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, 1 sec
[01:08] <Daynah> Polibio, trying to change the setting in Evolution. That cal is connected to Evolution
[01:08] <SurfnKid> roo_, no eth card or adapter, old laptop
[01:08] <troy_s> gnunewb007:  on 64bit, there is no flash nor java plugin, so you will need to look to !flash64 for help.
[01:08] <codeyman> bluetooth anyone?
[01:08] <Fujitsu> gnuNewb007, install flashplugin-nonfree.
[01:08] <Polibio> thanks Daynah
[01:08] <codeyman> any pointer?
[01:08] <Blissex> SurfnKid: should be on the main CD/DVD.
[01:08] <troy_s> flo:  trust?
[01:08] <Daynah> Polibio, I'm not sure exactly WHERE 'cause I'm not on it, but there's a place to fiddle :)
[01:08] <roo_> SurfnKid, cd drive?
[01:08] <Polibio> ok :)
[01:09] <Warbo> gnuNewb007: If you set up a 32bit chroot system then you can install any 32bit apps and link your 64bit system to them
[01:09] <sidewinder> espaol
[01:09] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: ok, it's open
[01:09] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: now what?
[01:09] <troy_s> gnunewb007:  and there are easier ways than the chroot.
[01:09] <gnuNewb007> Warbo: thanks I found the guide

[01:09] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[01:09] <SurfnKid> Blissex, what name should i look for
[01:09] <Dreamglider> can anyone tell me why the mplayer plugin for mozilla plays the video in an external window and not inside firefox ?
[01:09] <sidewinder> espaol
[01:09] <gnuNewb007> troy_s: which are?
[01:09] <troy_s> gnunewb007:  again, if you support opensource, you can make the browser you want
[01:09] <sidewinder> quienhabla espaol
[01:09] <flo> troy_s: it's similar to aiptek they say!
[01:09] <Warbo> gnuNewb007: This is the guide I told a friend to use (but make sure you use "dapper" in the sources and not "hoary") http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24575
[01:09] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, can you try doing hostname <oldhostname> without sudo. I'll brb
[01:09] <troy_s> ubotu, tell gnunewb007 about flash64
[01:10] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude sure will
[01:10] <Daynah> Sorry for the repost, Breezy was working fine for me but when I updated to using the update it started freezing. I then reinstalled using the CD (now I have a clean install) and it's STILL freezing. Has anyone heard of this before?
[01:10] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: ok, sorry, internet cut out
[01:10] <francis> did anyone noticed the zsnes bugs since dapper drake ?
[01:10] <SurfnKid> roo_, yeap Dapper is installed, My Wifi USB adapter is detected, Im trying to configure, compile stuff but I get an error saying Linux source tree /usr/src/linux is incomplete or missing
[01:10] <troy_s> daynah:  lynching at lockup?
[01:10] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: ok, autopsy is running, now what
[01:10] <Fujitsu> pianoboy3333, OK. Have you got to the web interface?
[01:10] <troy_s> daynah:  rather boot i meant.
[01:10] <Warbo> troy_s: chroot seems to be the most extendable for the future (install loads of apps)
[01:10] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: yes, it says I should disable js should I?
[01:10] <Blissex> SurfnKid: try 'linux-kernel-devel_2.6.15-23.39'
[01:10] <pianoboy3333> javascript that is
[01:10] <SurfnKid> Blissex, ok
[01:10] <troy_s> warbo:  linux32 works just fine on bins assuming you have the install correctly.
[01:10] <Daynah> I reboot at lock up is that what your asking?
[01:11] <pianoboy3333> damn I'm so freaked out
[01:11] <nootrope> wiki sez that my USB wifi card (linksys usb54g) isn't "supported in installed system" and doesn't "work out of the box".  Anyone know how much cajoling is ahead of me if i try to install it nonetheless? i'm a newbie to linux but experienced in other OSs.
[01:11] <pianoboy3333> I can't believe I freakin did this
[01:11] <troy_s> warbo:  i have had zero problems with the !flash64 technique regarding horrible legacy 32bit issues.
[01:11] <Warbo> troy_s: Well I don't have a 64bit system, one of my friends wanted to know how to run WINE
[01:11] <Fujitsu> pianoboy3333, I think Javascript is fine...
[01:11] <cjones> hey what do we do if pastebin is broke ?
[01:11] <pianoboy3333> ok
[01:11] <SurfnKid> Blissex, man it aint there, do i have to enable multiverse and universe?
[01:11] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: so now what?
[01:11] <Daynah> Pianoboy, don't worry, computers sometimes actually explode. As long as it's not doing THAT, you're fine. :)
[01:11] <troy_s> warbo:  no need for wine really, imho.
[01:11] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: new case?
[01:11] <roo_> SurfnKid, does 'iwconfig' show up wifi adapter?
[01:11] <Blissex> SurfnKid: it is on the CD...
[01:11] <Fujitsu> pianoboy3333, yep.
[01:11] <Warbo> troy_s: Well he insisted :)
[01:11] <codeyman> Has anyone successful configuring bluetooth?
[01:11] <Fujitsu> pianoboy3333, just enter the name of the case, name of the machine, as you go through the steps.
[01:11] <SurfnKid> Blissex, thru synaptic tho right
[01:11] <troy_s> warbo:  oh well.  some people have troubles with their security blankets :)
[01:12] <SurfnKid> roo_, NM doesnt show anything but the PPP adapter
[01:12] <Warbo> codeyman: It works for me with a bit of setting up (KDE was flawlessly automatic, but GNOME isn't)
[01:12] <Daynah> Troy: I reboot when it freezes using the button, is that what you're asking?
[01:12] <codeyman> Warbo: can u tell me the packages?
[01:12] <troy_s> daynah:  do you get SOME use out of it before it lynches?
[01:12] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: what should I put for investigator names?
[01:12] <SurfnKid> roo_, lsmod shows usbcore with a prism_usb   and 'lsusb' shows WUSB12 Linksys adapter
[01:12] <eXistenZ> Is it possible to install ubuntu on a computer that doesn't have a screen?
[01:12] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: and what exactly does this program do?
[01:12] <Chicken_Fire> hi folks
[01:12] <Blissex> SurfnKid: yes, and also 'linux-source-2.6.15_2.6.15-23.39'
[01:12] <Chicken_Fire> How do I change the download timeout in for adept? do I have to change it for apt-get? how?
[01:12] <cjones> can someone help me install dpencoder
[01:12] <codeyman> Warbo: is it gnome-bluetooth?
[01:13] <Warbo> codeyman: gnome-bluetooth (and you may want to use Konqueror for transfering files and stuff)
[01:13] <troy_s> daynah:  if so, i would put dollars to doughnuts that you have an ati or nvidia card and the proprietary drivers are causing x to lynch up.  try flipping to a virt term via ctrl/alt/f1 etc.
[01:13] <Daynah> Troy: Yeah, a bit. I would guess somewhere between 2-5 minutes though. Just enough to open up an im and start complaining. ;)
[01:13] <Blissex> SurfnKid: you can register a CD with APT, using 'apt-cdrom'. Read 'man 8 apt-cdrom'
[01:13] <zcat[1] > eXistenZ: you mean like a server?
[01:13] <eXistenZ> zcat[1] , exactly
[01:13] <troy_s> daynah:  am i right regarding the gfx card?
[01:13] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: you there?
[01:13] <codeyman> Warbo: I did an apt-get but its giving me python error...
[01:13] <zcat[1] > Probably easiest to plug in a screen for the install, but it will definately run with no screen.
[01:14] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: are you there?
[01:14] <Daynah> troy: I believe it's an ati card
[01:14] <Fujitsu> pianoboy3333, just leave the names blank.
[01:14] <SurfnKid> Blissex, it reads the CD, I installed Dapper all from it, Im just looking for that linux-kernel file you mention
[01:14] <Fujitsu> pianoboy3333, I was called away for a minute.
[01:14] <pianoboy3333> Fujitsu: can we start a pm?
[01:14] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, back
[01:14] <troy_s> daynah:  bingo!  change your driver to vesa, and i bet it will quit locking up.
[01:14] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, did it work
[01:14] <Fujitsu> pianoboy3333, yes.
[01:14] <Warbo> codeyman: The package worked for me, so I think it may be a problem with the way your system is set up (is that a python dependency, or does it install fine but gets a Python error when running it?)
[01:15] <troy_s> daynah:  then you will need to crimp back some of the options in xorg.conf for the proprietary ati drivers and you should be fine.  as fine as you can get with closed source drivers that is :)
[01:15] <Blissex> SurfnKid: if you register the CD with APT, Synaptic will just load the right packages from it.
[01:15] <kieranDOA> Speaking of python
[01:15] <codeyman> Warbo: It installs fine but error is there when running it
[01:15] <Daynah> Troy: Thanks baby! I've only been using Linux for about 7 months. How do you think I can get linux to give me more time?
[01:15] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude nope it told me i had to be sudo
[01:15] <Warbo> troy_s: You seem to like your Freedom :)
[01:15] <kieranDOA> Does anyone know of a good python IDE for ubuntu PPC?
[01:15] <troy_s> daynah:  say goodbye to x for a few minutes.
[01:15] <troy_s> daynah:  boot to a recovery cli only mode.
[01:15] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, ok, try typing "sudo su" do you get that same error?
[01:15] <SurfnKid> Blissex, oh I see, DVD too? the whole 3.2GB?
[01:15] <Mysta_> ppp
[01:15] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude yes i do
[01:15] <troy_s> warbo:  its very important, especially regarding computers.
[01:16] <troy_s> kieranDOA:  no opinions:  eric, idle, boa
[01:16] <Warbo> codeyman: Try installing any python packages which seem relevent (check gnome-bluetooth's suggested and recommended packages in Synaptic)
[01:16] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, ok are you in a virtual terminal?
[01:16] <troy_s> kieranDOA:  ultimately you can use plugins for vi and emacs too.
[01:16] <codeyman> Warbo: hmmm... will try that
[01:16] <Daynah> Troy: Thanks a LOT! I'll be on later to help you guys more with the easier questions if I can :) But for now... BOYFRIEND!
[01:16] <jatilq> how do I get dpkg to overwrite while installing?
[01:16] <kieranDOA> Bah, IDLE sucks, ill try the others :-)
[01:16] <troy_s> daynah:  you will need to be comfortable with a cli only editor
[01:17] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude: im connected via SSH, and the computer is in our server Room
[01:17] <jatilq> is it dpkg -r
[01:17] <troy_s> daynah:  nano, emacs, vi -- i am a vi fellow, but for a newer person start with nano :)
[01:17] <jatilq> or something?
[01:17] <kieranDOA> eric looks promising :-)
[01:17] <SurfnKid> Blissex, I added it, thru synaptic
[01:17] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, oh, i.c. this is probably why this is happening
[01:17] <SurfnKid> Blissex, reading index files
[01:17] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, can you open up another ssh session to that same computer?
[01:17] <troy_s> mysta:  what is your issue exactly?
[01:17] <Blissex> SurfnKid: ah yes, its will take a while.
[01:17] <SurfnKid> Blissex, i dont care :P
[01:17] <troy_s> kieranDOA:  i prefer plain text editors... it helps your coding really in the end.
[01:17] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude: when i look at my /etc/hosts file it still states the old host name
[01:17] <kieranDOA> troy_s: How so?
[01:18] <codeyman> Warbo: Synaptic shows it as already installed... isnt it just a front end to apt-get
[01:18] <Mysta_> troy_s: I wanted to change my hostname and now it seems i can't run any sudo commands...
[01:18] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, your hostname wont change until you rstart
[01:18] <troy_s> kieranDOA:  ide's tend to lend to being crutches... look at all the folks who can't code now without visual studio. :)
[01:18] <Warbo> My super keys don't work anymore, can someone suggest anything (just switched to XGL again)
[01:18] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, but because you are on ssh, i think this is happening with you
[01:18] <troy_s> mysta:  you logged on with an admin account via ssh?
[01:18] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude: do you suggest i attempt to restart locally as oppose to via SSH
[01:18] <Mysta_> troy_s: yes
[01:19] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Ok.  Is there a channel for the ubuntu developers? Because they might like to hear about this.
[01:19] <troy_s> mysta:  sudo vi /etc/hostname
[01:19] <kieranDOA> troy_s: its normally alot easier to manage alot of files etc using an IDE, and i started of with vim and gcc. so i dont depend on an IDE :-)
[01:19] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, first try opeing another ssh session, and change it back from there (or see if it is different)
[01:19] <troy_s> mysta:  that's all there is.  if you can't sudo, then your pass or account isn't admin.  plain and simple.
[01:19] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, if that's ok, then restart
[01:19] <Warbo> codeyman: Packages have dependencies which must be installed, recommended which make them useful and suggested which are nice. Try all three catagories (in Synaptic just right click a package and go on Properties)
[01:19] <jatilq> is it dpkg -i --force-overwrite that it?
[01:19] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, #ubuntu-dev
[01:19] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, all to obvious. :)
[01:19] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Ok. Let me go check
[01:19] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, ok
[01:19] <troy_s> kieranDOA:  good then.  just don't crutch out!  laf.
[01:20] <DynaStab> HELLO
[01:20] <gentoo_helper> pppoe_dude, Wait...Can I join that channel? When I join it shows me as the only person there...
[01:20] <SurfnKid> Blissex,  got the Kernel Devel and Kernel Sources. I guess Im going to compile something it seems like
[01:20] <Mysta_> troy_s: i built this machine like 20 minutes ago, its the only account on the machine. i receive this error when running sudo shutdown -r now, "sudo: unable to lookup atl-vmware01 via gethostbyname()"
[01:20] <codeyman> Warbo: apt-get takes care of that... it installs all the dependencies for u
[01:20] <kieranDOA> :-)
[01:20] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude: i'll try to connect via another ssh session
[01:20] <pppoe_dude> gentoo_helper, sorry might be #ubuntu-devel
[01:20] <troy_s> mysta:  vmware?!?!?!?!
[01:20] <Warbo> codeyman: Yes, but it does not install RECOMMENDED and SUGGESTED
[01:20] <troy_s> mysta:  you are vmwaring one of the boxes?
[01:21] <Blissex> SurfnKid: fine, but I wonder why you need to compile kernel sources, the standard binary package got practically everything.
[01:21] <SurfnKid> Blissex, if you read something for me maybe you can suggest what i have to set up
[01:21] <Mysta_> troy_s: nope
[01:21] <Warbo> codeyman: A music player might DEPEND on ALSA, RECOMMEND MP3 libraries and SUGGEST visualisations
[01:21] <Mysta_> troy_s: brand new dell poweredge server
[01:21] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, if the new ssh session shows your new hostname, then i think you can safely restart
[01:21] <troy_s> mysta:  something very strange there... vmware error on a darn pure nix system???
[01:22] <raptros-v76> hey, everyone. is gstreamer still broken?
[01:22] <troy_s> mysta:  try a sudo reboot maybe.
[01:22] <Warbo> raptros-v76: When was GStreamer broken?
[01:22] <raptros-v76> Warbo: it hasnt worked for me in dapper. ever
[01:22] <fireloard> has ne1 had any luck setting up a CVS server on ubuntu server 6?.. i keep googling but after setup I try to login and just get "unrecognized auth response fromlocalhost: pam failed to release authenticator"
[01:23] <troy_s> raptros:  that's funny, it works for everyone else.  do you mean dvd playback?
[01:23] <Warbo> raptros-v76: I've had no problems, but I like VLC a lot so I use that
[01:23] <Blissex> SurfnKid: just explain what you are trying to achieve, not what you are trying to do...
[01:23] <SurfnKid> Blissex,  ftp://ftp.linux-wlan.org/pub/linux-wlan-ng/README  In the Prerequisites:
[01:23] <SurfnKid>   part I dont understand whta i need
[01:23] <j3r0m3> hey
[01:23] <raptros-v76> wait.
[01:23] <raptros-v76> maybe it didnt work under the beta
[01:23] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude: I successfully connected to another ssh session, but i still get the same error. neuralis, from #ubuntu-server stated this, "if you look at /etc/hosts, you'll find your old hostname in the <IP_ADDRESS> line. replace it with the new hostname."
[01:23] <[nige] > anyone know if the big desktop and ati drivers are fixed yet?
[01:24] <troy_s> mysta:  you STILL shouldn't be getting  a reboot error.  Sort that out FIRST.  sudo reboot
[01:24] <SurfnKid> Blissex, Trying to install the drivers for the prism chip that the linksys adapter supports, and I looked at the ubuntu supported devices and threw this page with a TAR of instructions and files
[01:24] <troy_s> mysta:  that is way more worrysome than the hostname (which is easy to change)
[01:24] <SurfnKid> Blissex, the adapter is WUSB12v1 Linksys 802.11b adapter
[01:25] <Blissex> SurfnKid: you are approaching this completely from the wrong angle, you are doooooomed.
[01:25] <raptros-v76> anyway, i dont worry about gstreamer any more. i use xine for media.
[01:25] <SurfnKid> Blissex, :S
[01:25] <Blissex> SurfnKid: however, the 'wlan-ng' drivers are available precompiled for the Ubuntu kernel.
[01:25] <SurfnKid> Blissex, ok tell me this then
[01:25] <Mysta_> troy_s: but I am, and I haven't done anything other than install openssh-server. i came to this channel, and figured out how to run sudo hostname atl-vmware01. then i tried to run sudo shutdown -r now, and received this error. this all happen within 20 mins of building this server
[01:26] <codeyman> Warbo: Still gives me errors... I went to the options and marked recommended as dependencies...
[01:26] <Blissex> SurfnKid: just add the suitable sources and then search for "wlan-ng" with Synaptic
[01:26] <SurfnKid> Blissex, is this why i can see the the usbcore prism driver when i run 'lsmod'?
[01:26] <SurfnKid> Blissex, oh ok
[01:26] <Blissex> SurfnKid: probably indeed.
[01:26] <Warbo> codeyman: I will check how mine is set up
[01:26] <SurfnKid> Blissex, i see, Ithougght Dapper would already have things installed and in the kernel
[01:26] <troy_s> mysta:  you should only change the hosts file to change hostname
[01:26] <eXistenZ> where can I get the ubuntu server from
[01:26] <codeyman> Warbo: Thanx
[01:26] <DynaStab> dapper makes me wet
[01:26] <troy_s> mysta:  but try a reboot and see if it fixes it.
[01:26] <pianoboy3333> Can anyone help me with a hard drive problem? Fujitsu started helping me with the program autopsy, but he had to leave, can someone finish helping me?
[01:27] <Blissex> SurfnKid: Dapper has got a lot of stuff installed, but some of it requires proprietary drivers, and those are an optional extra...
[01:27] <troy_s> pianoboy3333:  hang in there, someone will help you.
[01:27] <pianoboy3333> ok
[01:27] <Mysta_> troy_s: see I did not know that, someone suggested sudo hostname as does tldp.org. it seems the only way to restart is a hard reset
[01:27] <Blue89> I downloaded source code to a game not found in synaptic, I cd into it's folder, type ./configure, and it says "configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
[01:27] <Blue89> "
[01:27] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, you can either try that or go to the actual machine, open a virtual console and restart it from there (or double check to see if sudo works)
[01:27] <troy_s> mysta:  yes... it is causing a hostname lookup failure.
[01:27] <SurfnKid> Blissex, i found the linux-wlan in synaptic
[01:28] <troy_s> mysta:  try the reboot, then learn from the mistake.  sudo reboot
[01:28] <Seveas> !tell Blue89 about compiling
[01:28] <troy_s> mysta:  that should hopefully skip the hostname lookup.
[01:28] <Blissex> SurfnKid: that would avoid a lot of grief...
[01:28] <Blue89> Seveas, ty
[01:28] <SurfnKid> Blissex, definitely :D
[01:28] <roo_> Blue89, install gcc
[01:28] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, although sudo should work from within the new session
[01:28] <neo_> can any one helpme with my ati m9 configuration the guides from the website dont seem to work for me
[01:28] <troy_s> mysta:  if that fails, change the hostname BACK to the original using the sudo command, THEN adjust hosts, THEN reboot.  phew.
[01:28] <eugman> Anyone know why gaim continues to flash incessantly even after I clicked the text window?
[01:29] <MTecknology> Is there any way to get the whole list that ubotu uses for my personal reference?
[01:29] <troy_s> mteck:  try asking him help
[01:29] <Blue89> roo_ cc1 is present
[01:29] <apokryphos> MTecknology: it's searchable -- /msg ubotu list
[01:29] <MTecknology> ok
[01:29] <SurfnKid> Blissex, so once that is installed I guess i have to go thru those utilities
[01:29] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude and troy_s: ok, I'll go try that.
[01:29] <troy_s> mysta:  try sudo reboot first :)
[01:29] <Mysta_> troy_s: k
[01:29] <troy_s> mysta:  then try from there.  it is good to learn how to overcome your errors remotely
[01:29] <gorski> problem with totem; want play files, says: This is an audio-only file, and there is no audio output available.
[01:29] <Blissex> SurfnKid: there are nice GUI frontends for those....
[01:29] <pianoboy3333> Can anyone help me with a hard drive problem? Fujitsu started helping me with the program autopsy, but he had to leave, can someone finish helping me? I seem to have installed xubuntu over my main hard drive, but Fujitsu was helping me try and recover some files that may still be there,  can anyone else help?
[01:30] <Warbo> codeyman: these are my installed packages when I search for bluetooth: bluez-pin bluez-utils gnome-bluetooth kdebluetooth libbluetooth1 libbluetoothq-dev libbtctl2 libgnomebt0 python2.4-libbtctl qobex
[01:30] <Blue89> roo_, it is  /usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.0.2/cc1
[01:30] <SurfnKid> Blissex, so let me get this right, i just installed the utils not the GUI.  Christ almighty, im learning something new
[01:30] <Mysta_> troy_s: thats very true. I'm glad this happen @ the beginning. It seems i cannot run sudo reboot via SSH.
[01:30] <uXp> does anyone know how i can add a exit menu unde application in ubuntu?
[01:30] <roo_> Blue89, does gcc/cc give you aything in a terminal?
[01:31] <troy_s> mysta:  ok. so that sudo command broke stuff...
[01:31] <troy_s> mysta:  change back to orignal hostname, try a reboot
[01:31] <Blissex> SurfnKid: the GUI is part of GNOME or whatever else...
[01:31] <troy_s> mysta:  ok?
[01:31] <Mysta_> troy_s: k
[01:31] <codeyman> Warbo: Hey I was able to transfer a file to my computer... from the menu
[01:31] <Mysta_> troy_s: brb
[01:31] <troy_s> mysta:  that's a foolish way to change hostname anyways.
[01:31] <Blue89> roo_, cc1 doesn't do anything, you have to type the whole filename
[01:31] <codeyman> Warbo: The command promt gave me an error
[01:31] <Mysta_> troy_s: my mistake, i had no idea
[01:31] <uXp> does anyone know how i can add a exit menu unde application in ubuntu?
[01:31] <fireloard> so uh.. .no1 here knows about cvs server?
[01:31] <Blue89> I added a symlink to /gcc
[01:31] <Warbo> codeyman: Generally it is the PIN which is a bitch to set up
[01:31] <troy_s> mysta:  yep, but for future ref:  /etc/hostname :)
[01:31] <gorski> problem with totem; want play files, says: This is an audio-only file, and there is no audio output available.
[01:31] <johnsie> hi... what's the command to get into applications configuration?
[01:32] <johnsie> (in gnome)
[01:32] <codeyman> Warbo: I din set the pin... it directly took it ... strange
[01:32] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, might've been my bad advice ;) but thats how i cange my hostname
[01:32] <Warbo> johnsie: gconf-editor
[01:32] <SurfnKid> Blissex, right, Ive got the wlan utils installed what should i do to try to see if the usb adapter responds.  just a ball park suggestion :)
[01:32] <johnsie> thanks :-)
[01:32] <uXp> does anyone know how i can add a exit menu unde application in ubuntu?
[01:32] <MTecknology> can anybody put data into ubotu?
[01:32] <codeyman> Warbo: Can u use it to control presentations?
[01:32] <troy_s> mteck:  yes.
[01:32] <apokryphos> MTecknology: that's right
[01:32] <pppoe_dude> MTecknology, yes with care
[01:32] <Blissex> SurfnKid: try to run the command to list networks.
[01:32] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude: its cool, no worries, I learn something so thats whatt I'll take from it
[01:32] <SurfnKid> ah ok
[01:32] <apokryphos> troy_s: /msg ubotu tab :P
[01:32] <MTecknology> wow, that's cool
[01:32] <uXp> does anyone know how i can add a exit menu unde application in ubuntu?
[01:33] <Mysta_> pppoe_dude: the guy from #ubuntu-server sent me this link, http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1045047&postcount=3
[01:33] <Warbo> codeyman: I have only used it for file transfer really (wow, MP3 phone!) and I DID manage to set it up as a serial device letting me dial the Internet through my mobile, but I would not recommend doing that ()
[01:33] <troy_s> mysta:  hostname controls the name
[01:33] <pppoe_dude> Mysta_, sounds good
[01:33] <Blissex> SurfnKid: again GNOME should have a GUI for messing around with WiFi, look at the Ubuntu Wiki for a WiFi tutorial
[01:33] <uXp> does anyone know how i can add a exit menu unde application in ubuntu?
[01:33] <troy_s> mysta:  hosts controls how you want to reference it outside of <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:34] <troy_s> mysta:  or localhost
[01:34] <DynaStab> wut is bettar ubuntu or xubuntu
[01:34] <Warbo> codeyman: There are various ways of controlling XMMS, etc. using bluetooth so it should be possible. As to whether someone has written a program for doing it, I don't know
[01:34] <troy_s> dynastab:  try them both, pick one.
[01:34] <raptros-v76> kubuntu. if you like kde
[01:34] <Chicken__Fire> aarg, I have to press ok for the java licences to install java 1.5, but the adept installer hides it ;((((
[01:34] <DynaStab> troy_s, can i install all the xfce4 stuff on DAPPER
[01:34] <pianoboy3333> Please, can someone help me? I think I mortally screwed my ubuntu partition, I meant to install xubuntu on an external, but it seems to have installed over my main partition, Fujitsu was helping me before and we had started using autopsy to try, but he had to leave
[01:34] <codeyman> Warbo: is there a plugin for xmms?
[01:34] <troy_s> dynastab:  i believe so.
[01:34] <uXp> does anyone know how i can add a exit menu unde application in ubuntu?
[01:34] <siimo> Ubuntu desktop CD refuses to work on my pc  o_X  i get this "Buffer I/O error on device hda"  anyone help?? i tried booting in safe graphical as well!
[01:34] <codeyman> Warbo: or is it inbuilt?
[01:34] <DynaStab> troy_s, i love you
[01:35] <Warbo> codeyman: Not in Ubuntu, but through Google :)
[01:35] <troy_s> uxp:  what is an exit?
[01:35] <codeyman> Warbo: oh k...
[01:35] <kallei> i have compiled my own kernel, and now im trying to install nvidia drivers. It seems like the installer cannot find the kernel headers,  am i supposed to create some symlinks or something to get the headers right?
[01:35] <troy_s> siimo:  test your media before you do an install!!!!
[01:35] <roo_> siimo, a bad burn? try reburning at slowest speed?
[01:35] <uXp> troy_s: like a logout restart menu  like the one located at the top right
[01:35] <troy_s> kallei:  linux must point to your currently compiled kernel
[01:35] <Warbo> kallei: Have you done "make modules_install" in your kernel source tree?
[01:35] <SurfnKid> Blissex, I will do that, thanks for the help, Im gonna play around with the settings a bit to see if i can connect to my AP
[01:35] <codeyman> kallei: use synaptic to download the headers for you
[01:35] <Warbo> codeyman: It is a custom kernel
[01:36] <eugman> siimo, either it proabaly wouldn't be god to install or you have a bad cd. I think there is an option to do an integrity check on it.
[01:36] <pianoboy3333> Please can I have some help
[01:36] <neo_> when i do fglrxinf it retuns this http://paste.ubuntubrasil.org/298 how can i solv it ?
[01:36] <pianoboy3333> kbrooks: do you know about using autopsy?
[01:36] <siimo> eugman  roo_ troy_s: i have tested it, infact it boots fine on my other system, i tried kubuntu as well, same error, it never goes past mounting the root filesystem
[01:36] <kallei> now, when should i have made that  after dpkp -i   or ?
[01:36] <Ohzie> Has anybody here gotten media buttons to work?
[01:36] <codeyman> Warbo: oh... my bad
[01:36] <gorski> i have no system sounds!
[01:36] <uXp> does anyone know how i can add a exit menu unde application in ubuntu?
[01:36] <raptros-v76> Ohzie: whatkind of media buttons?
[01:36] <troy_s> siimo:  if you are certain the installation media is good, your hda might be a good starting point looking for errors.
[01:36] <pianoboy3333> please, I really need help, I feel like I'm going to vomit...
[01:36] <raptros-v76> uXp: make a launcher
[01:37] <Ohzie> raptros-v76: volume up/down
[01:37] <codeyman> pianoboy333: what is the problem?
[01:37] <troy_s> piano:  patience.  someone will help.  unfortunately no one is paid to be here.
[01:37] <siimo> troy_s: hda is a brand new DVD+-RW from samsung and its fine with all cds except for ubuntu/kubuntu
[01:37] <kallei> the installer is looking for the headers in /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.16-ck12-myname   , and the dir is there, but is it something wrong in the headers or why are they not accepted?
[01:37] <troy_s> siimo:  change media
[01:37] <DynaStab> i want to install dapper
[01:37] <troy_s> siimo:  and i bet it will work.  some drives are very fussy regarding inks.
[01:37] <troy_s> dynastab:  do it.
[01:37] <Warbo> Ohzie: If they make random symbols when you press them in a console, like [^4 or something then I think it can be done by telling X to map them to something, then tell GNOME to map that to a function (like volume, etc.) I have never done it so please don't ask for specifics
[01:38] <uXp> raptros-v76: then what
[01:38] <siimo> but like i said ive tried 2 different media as well   and also kubuntu
[01:38] <gorski> i have no audio output available problem.
[01:38] <siimo> ive even tried CD-RW after CD-R didn't work
[01:38] <troy_s> siimo:  other option is to change hda to your hard disk... shooting in the dark though.
[01:38] <DynaStab> troy_s, im scared, wont it mess up m windows ME
[01:38] <pianoboy3333> I really, really need hard drive help, I'm desperate, please please, can someone help me? I think I mortally screwed my ubuntu partition, I meant to install xubuntu on an external, but it seems to have installed over my main partition, Fujitsu was helping me before and we had started using autopsy to try, but he had to leave
[01:38] <rzuf> ?
[01:38] <uXp> raptros-v76: then what
[01:39] <pianoboy3333> I need someone to continue helping me with autopsy
[01:39] <raptros-v76> uXp: use the menu edit tool.

[01:57] <neo_> DynaStab admint it you dont know how to do it
[01:57] <Fizzeh> codeyman and seveas: a bunch of stuff was printed, what do you want to know from it?
[01:57] <Mysta_> troy_s: probably, we've got alot of admins, i just happen 2 be the the novice on linux
[01:57] <navreet> anyone here use facebook?
[01:57] <troy_s> mysta:  even so, you should have been able to correct it via the cli in ssh.  but at least you are up again.
[01:58] <apokryphos> navreet: why?
[01:58] <navreet> when I try to add photos (which uses firefox), firefox crashes
[01:58] <Seveas> Fizzeh, anything that looks like a network/ethernet adapter
[01:58] <navreet> amd64... used to use sun's jre
[01:58] <navreet> not sure which jre to use
[01:58] <troy_s> navreet:  there is no java plugin for amd64
[01:58] <navreet> amd64 install was a bad idea IMO =[, flash doesn't work, stuff crashes :(
[01:58] <apokryphos> navreet: facebook doesn't use java, so that's irrelevant.
[01:58] <Mysta_> troy_s: im not sure why, but I would like to know. this forum post states that there is no way to run sudo commands after doing such a thing
[01:58] <troy_s> navreet:  you will need to go to 32bit mode via !flash64 route
[01:58] <navreet> apokryphos, it uses java
[01:59] <troy_s> navreet:  amd64 rocks.  fast.  solid.  stable.
[01:59] <apokryphos> navreet: for adding photos? Erm...
[01:59] <cafuego> navreet: Yeh, for desktop use, pick i386 even on an amd64.
[01:59] <navreet> what's via !flash64
[01:59] <troy_s> mysta:  sounds ill informed.  were you not able to flip it back to the orignal name via that sudo command?
[01:59] <cafuego> navreet: most stuff inn fact runs _faster_ that way.
[01:59] <navreet> troy_s, ya ya... I interned at AMD in 2004
[01:59] <Fizzeh> codeyman and seveas:  0000:02:09.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4303 802.11b Wireless LAN Controller (rev 01)
[01:59] <troy_s> ubotu, tell navreet about flash64
[01:59] <Mysta_> troy_s: nope i couldnt run ANY sudo commands
[01:59] <Seveas> ah, broadcrap
[01:59] <troy_s> mysta:  eek... yes that sound horrific!
[01:59] <kallei> i have compiled my own custom kernel and now I am trying to install the nvidia drivers from albertomilone.eu/ubuntu/nvidia/scripts/envy_8762_64. the problem is that the installerscript says it cannot find the kernel headers. A strange thing is that to me, it seems as the kernel-headers is there in the /usr/src ???
[01:59] <Seveas> Fizzeh, I missed the beginning, are you on dapper or breezy?
[02:00] <Fizzeh> seveas: its old - its whats been there for 4 years maybe
[02:00] <troy_s> mysta:  did you logout and log back in ?
[02:00] <Mysta_> troy_s: yes, i attempted that as well
[02:00] <Fizzeh> seveas: I think breezy
[02:00] <Bruva> hya all
[02:00] <troy_s> mysta:  sounds awful for certain.
[02:00] <Tedd> kallei, the kernel headers might have to be in usr/src/linux
[02:00] <Tedd> I might be wrong though
[02:00] <Seveas> Fizzeh, what's the content of /etc/issue?
[02:00] <ompaul> cafuego, mind if I message you?
[02:00] <Polibio> bye
[02:00] <troy_s> kallei:  you need a sym link to your /usr/src/blahheaders from /usr/src/linux
[02:01] <kallei> i have a  symbolic link also
[02:01] <Fizzeh> permission denied, does sudo work on linux (im a mac user)
[02:01] <Mysta_> i have another small issue if you'd like to take a stab @ it, it has to deal w/ a CDROM not being able to  be browsed.....
[02:01] <cafuego> ompaul: Only if saying "yes" would not stop you ;-)
[02:01] <navreet> Fizzeh, sudo works on linux
[02:01] <troy_s> kallei:  /usr/src/linux MUSt point to your currently running / compiled kernel.
[02:01] <Bruva> hey folks - anybody here as can help me? I just need to get the permissions right so as I can access my ntfs drive
[02:01] <Seveas> Fizzeh, it's a file, not a command
[02:01] <Fizzeh> should I do cat?
[02:01] <ompaul> cafuego, hmmm tough call
[02:01] <Seveas> just open it in a text editor
[02:01] <apokryphos> Bruva: FAQ
[02:01] <Seveas> or with cat
[02:01] <troy_s> kallei:  if you do that, all is well.  if all is not well, you have not done that.
[02:01] <SirGrok> Hello world.
[02:02] <Fizzeh> Urbuntu 6.06 LTS \n \l (but its not an l) - codeyman and seveas
[02:02] <Coffeecup> How can I kill a window where the close X no longer works, and it does not show up in ps -all, or in the top command.  (falconseye locked up)
[02:02] <SirGrok> I am trying to configure my wireless internet, and I can't seem to figure it out.
[02:02] <Seveas> Fizzeh, then you're on dapper, good
[02:02] <Fizzeh> ok
[02:02] <SirGrok> I have a intel 2950abg (which uses that 2200's driver), and it is installed.
[02:02] <Seveas> Fizzeh, go to ubuntu.cafuego.net and download the broadcom firmware package
[02:02] <harry> how will know the version of my ubuntu. in the terminal
[02:02] <Seveas> Fizzeh, and install it
[02:02] <harry> what command
[02:02] <troy_s> harry:  uname -r
[02:02] <gnomefreak> hmmmmmmm
[02:02] <kallei> troy_s: i have it pointing there,   linux -> /usr/src/linux-2.6.16ck12
[02:03] <harry> troy_s: Thanks
[02:03] <Fizzeh> do USB drives work with ubuntu, or will it not know what my mac formatted one is thinking?
[02:03] <SirGrok> I have tried just about everything that I can think of, and I just can't get it.
[02:03] <Mysta_> troy_s: do i have to mount or alter anything to read from a CD-ROM i just popped in
[02:03] <kallei> and i have a dir cointaing the headers, /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.6.16-ck12-mycustomname/
[02:03] <kallei> is that right?
[02:03] <troy_s> mysta: sorry?
[02:03] <harry> troy_s: how will i know if i'm upgraded to dapper drake???
[02:03] <troy_s> harry, what kernel version is listed?
[02:03] <cafuego> Fizzeh: USB drives work fine, Linux also reads and writes to HFS (though it has some problems writing to hfs+)
[02:03] <threeseas> is all hope lost for getting a printer working under ubuntu?
[02:03] <Drakonik> Is it possible to use Rhythmbox to interact with my iPod?
[02:04] <Drakonik> Or am I stuck with gtkpod?
[02:04] <cafuego> Drakonik: Depends on the printer, eh?
[02:04] <Fizzeh> cafuego: is it fine with reading hfs+?
[02:04] <ompaul> threeseas, what is the printer
[02:04] <harry> troy_s: listed where. i'm not so familiar with all the stuffs in linux
[02:04] <troy_s> kallei:  you need your headers / src in one dir.  point linux to it.  compile kernel form there.
[02:04] <cafuego> Fizzeh: Yep.
[02:04] <ompaul> Seveas, take it easy
[02:04] <Drakonik> ...
[02:04] <troy_s> harry:  what kernel comes up with uname -r
[02:04] <gnomefreak> Seveas: good night
[02:04] <harry> troy_s: i'm a windows user before
[02:04] <SirGrok> Does anyone know where to point me so that I can get help?
[02:04] <Drakonik> cafuego: I'm not tlaking about a printer.
[02:04] <Fizzeh> seveas: do I want the .deb?
[02:04] <harry> troy_s: 2.6.12-9-386
[02:04] <gnomefreak> Fizzeh: yes
[02:04] <Fizzeh> thanks gnomefreak
[02:05] <gnomefreak> yw
[02:05] <kallei> troy_s:  i believe that is what i have done
[02:05] <Rawplayer> when i use transparecy in aterm it works fine but when i maximize the aterm window it gets white
[02:05] <cafuego> Fizzeh: I ran a mac mini with OSX/Linux for a while and had /Users mounted as /home - sharing the homedirs.
[02:05] <Mysta_> troy_s: i cannot read from a CDROM i just put in my drive, do I have to mount something or alter any files???
[02:05] <Rawplayer> how is that possible?
[02:05] <gnomefreak> cafuego: do you host broadcom drivers for breezy and dapper?
[02:05] <Concord_Dawn> Mysta_: You shouldn't.
[02:05] <cafuego> gnomefreak: No, only a firmware package.
[02:05] <threeseas> ompaul: its a canon bjc 4000 and is supported ... but I have never had any success getting any printer working under any linux on any hardware
[02:05] <harry> troy_s: what version is 2.6.12-9-386
[02:05] <troy_s> mysta:  you running ubuntu on it?
[02:05] <gnomefreak> oh ok
[02:05] <Concord_Dawn> Mysta_: You might have to mount your CD drive though
[02:05] <troy_s> harry: not dapper
[02:06] <kallei> i extracted the kernel to /usr/src/linux-2.6.16ck12   , compiled, installed, and then i got the dirs /usr/src/linux-2.6.16-ck12-mycustomname
[02:06] <Concord_Dawn> harry: That
[02:06] <cafuego> Drakonik: Ah :-)    gtkpod is (currently) the only way of managing files.
[02:06] <Mysta_> Concord_Dawn: how do i verify this?
[02:06] <Concord_Dawn> harry: That's a kernel version.
[02:06] <Drakonik> Blargh.
[02:06] <kallei> oops wrong,  i  got the dirs /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.6.16-ck12-mycustomname
[02:06] <Fizzeh> so now what do I do with this .deb?
[02:06] <Drakonik> Okay. Next question.
[02:06] <Mysta_> if i run ls against cdrom or cdrom0, it returns nothing
[02:06] <gnomefreak> brb gonna look for a page witht he drivers so maybe we can add it to ubotu ;)
[02:06] <niki> can someone suggest a fast pic viewer that i can associate with image files?  it has to be _FAST_!
[02:06] <Concord_Dawn> try ls /media/cdrom
[02:06] <Drakonik> Without VMware or something similar, is it possible for me to run Windows without having to boot Ubuntu down?
[02:06] <Mysta_> but i know theres somethign on the disk
[02:06] <cafuego> gnomefreak: drivers?
[02:07] <harry> am i able to upgrade to dapper drake when running sudo apt-get dist-upgrade???
[02:07] <gnomefreak> for broadcom
[02:07] <Concord_Dawn> Drakonik: No.
[02:07] <kbrooks> Drakonik: qemu
[02:07] <threeseas> ompaul: on ubuntu draper drake it ask for user name and password twice (cups - add printer) and never gets it working
[02:07] <cafuego> gnomefreak: They're in the default kernels.
[02:07] <kbrooks> Concord_Dawn: qemu
[02:07] <Drakonik> Gemu?
[02:07] <gnomefreak> oh ok
[02:07] <kbrooks> Drakonik: q, not g
[02:07] <Concord_Dawn> kbrooks: Qemu is a VM program.
[02:07] <kbrooks> #qemu
[02:07] <Drakonik> Ah.
[02:07] <Mysta_> Concord_Dawn: still nothing
[02:07] <kbrooks> Concord_Dawn: no, it isnt just that
[02:07] <cafuego> niki: pornview?
[02:07] <kbrooks> Concord_Dawn: ITS A EMULATOR
[02:07] <Fizzeh> thanks everyone who helped me out!
[02:07] <Concord_Dawn> Mysta_: /media/cdrom0
[02:08] <ompaul> threeseas, the way to do that on ubuntu is rather simple. System Administration Printing, and follow through
[02:08] <Mysta_> Concord_Dawn: same result. this is really confusing
[02:08] <Concord_Dawn> kbrooks: He wants to run WINDOWS. Not emulate it.
[02:08] <Concord_Dawn> Mysta_: Try /dev/cdrom and /dev/cdrom0.
[02:08] <Concord_Dawn> Other than that, I'd have to say that Ubuntu can't find your CD drive.
[02:08] <kbrooks> Concord_Dawn: ok, so wine doesnt countthen
[02:09] <threeseas> ompaul: there is no system admin printing menu item
[02:09] <Concord_Dawn> There is no way to physically run 2 OSes at the same time without a VM.
[02:09] <theine> Mysta_: Does /dev/scd0 exist?
[02:10] <Mysta_> Concord_Dawn: ls dev/cdrom returns dev/cdrom
[02:10] <Mysta_> theine: let me check
[02:10] <Concord_Dawn> theine: Thanks. I forgot what it was called.
[02:10] <Coffeecup>  Is there a way to kill a gnome window that refuses to close?
[02:10] <theine> Mysta_: what does "ls -l /dev/cdrom" give?
[02:11] <Andronicus_> what sources.list should I use when upgrading to Dapper?
[02:11] <apokryphos> Andronicus: faq
[02:11] <Concord_Dawn> !tell Andronicus about dapper
[02:11] <Andronicus> apokryphos: what?
[02:11] <ProN00b> i need a simple paint program, like mspaint is on windows
[02:11] <apokryphos> Coffeecup: xkill in terminal
[02:11] <apokryphos> Andronicus: read the FAQ :)
[02:11] <Concord_Dawn> !tell Andronicus about update
[02:11] <ProN00b> (maybe with slight vector abilitys)
[02:11] <Mysta_> theine:   lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2006-06-10 19:52 /dev/cdrom -> hda
[02:11] <Andronicus> apokryphos: no need to swear :P
[02:11] <Coffeecup> apokryphos Thanks.
[02:12] <Fizzeh> Does anyone here know about the program "synergy"?
[02:12] <Sivik> anyone here use enlightenment?
[02:12] <Concord_Dawn> Sivik: I've looked at it, what do you need?
[02:12] <Mysta_> theine: and scd0 does not exist
[02:12] <mky375> Fizzeh did you mean Cenergy?
[02:12] <Sivik> Concord_Dawn, i am trying to figure out how to make a submenu in the e17menuedit
[02:12] <Mysta_> theine and Concord_Dawn: i was able to install openssh-server via my ubuntu 6.06 server CD
[02:12] <Concord_Dawn> Andronicus: Check the FAQ. There's a page that shows you how to upgrade to Dapper without editing anything.
[02:12] <swim> hey folks is there howto for e17 dapper?
[02:12] <Concord_Dawn> good stuff.
[02:13] <bennyboy> can someone tell me how to change the name of a partition that shows up in the gnome places menu?
[02:13] <Sivik> Mysta_, what is your problem?
[02:13] <theine> Mysta_: try "sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt"
[02:13] <Andronicus> Concord_Dawn: ok ok
[02:13] <Andronicus> thanls
[02:13] <Fizzeh> no, synergy, its a program that allows you to use one mouse / keyboard with mulriple computer (mky375)
[02:13] <Mysta_> Sivik: I cannot read from a CDROM in my cd drive
[02:13] <Coffeecup> ProN00b: would TheGimp work for you?
[02:13] <Mysta_> theine: i will try that now
[02:13] <Fizzeh> or, just in general, how do I install a .rpm
[02:13] <Andronicus> Concord_Dawn: I just loaded Upgrade Manager and clicked on UPGRADE button
[02:13] <Fizzeh> or how do I compile source
[02:13] <Sivik> Mysta_, did you mount it?
[02:13] <ompaul> threeseas, is that the first user created on that machine?
[02:13] <harry> does running sudo apt-get dist-upgrade will able to upgrade to ubuntu dapper drake 6.06???
[02:13] <bennyboy> i have 2 partitions  one is /media/music and the other is /media/movies and under the gnome places menu the music partition shows up just as music while the movies partition shows up as /media/movies
[02:13] <Mysta_> Sivik: im not sure
[02:14] <Sivik> harry: yes
[02:14] <apokryphos> harry: you need to tinker a couple of things first
[02:14] <ompaul> !upgrade
[02:14] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade. Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades . Note: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the latest development verison: (eft when its open)
[02:14] <swim> hey folks is there howto for e17 dapper?
[02:14] <ProN00b> Coffeecup, no, thats more like photoshop, i need something simple (i wasted arround 3 minutes trying to figure out how to draw a box in gimp, and i didn't find it)
[02:14] <Sivik> harry: as long as your change all the places it says breezy to dapper in the source.list file
[02:14] <kallei> what dir should the  /lib/modules/'uname -r'/build   point to?
[02:14] <Andronicus> what does LTS mean?
[02:14] <ompaul> long term support
[02:14] <something_else> people, Im trying to understand something regarding active directories. Is there a way to manage windows profiles in linux?
[02:14] <cafuego> andronicusL Little Tiny Sausages
[02:14] <ajnewbold> what should I apt-get to obtain 'ncurses' ?
[02:14] <Mysta_> theine: "sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt" returned "mount: block device /dev/cdrom is write-protected, mounting read-only"
[02:14] <bennyboy> long term support i think
[02:14] <Andronicus> what does 6.06 LTS mean?
[02:14] <theine> Mysta_: That's fine, now do "ls /mnt"
[02:14] <Tano> Hi everyone
[02:15] <Andronicus> ompaul: ok
[02:15] <swim> anyone?
[02:15] <Sivik> Andronicus, long term support
[02:15] <ompaul> Anderson,  ...  long term support
[02:15] <harry> Sivik: yeah i did that. i copied somewhat like that i pasted on the sources.list. then i run the sudo apt-get dist-upgrade.
[02:15] <krazykit> Andronicus: long term support
[02:15] <Andronicus> bennyboy: ok
[02:15] <ProN00b> so, does anyone know a simple drawing program ? (like mspaint on windows)
[02:15] <apokryphos> ProN00b: kolourpaint
[02:15] <Sivik> harry: then you should be right, what does your man /proc/version say the kernel version is
[02:15] <ompaul> ProN00b, xpaint
[02:15] <Tano> I just installed ubuntu 6.06 but I can't change the resolution
[02:15] <Mysta_> theine: wow i see the contents, can you give me quick run down of what just went on?
[02:15] <IcemanV9> xpaint?
[02:15] <apokryphos> Tano: FAQ
[02:15] <swim> hrmm
[02:15] <Tano> it's stuck to 640x480 @ 60 hz
[02:15] <Sivik> Tano: then you haven't installed the correct video drivers yet
[02:15] <theine> Mysta_: You mounted the CD
[02:15] <ompaul> !resolution
[02:15] <ProN00b> apokryphos, is that kde ?
[02:15] <ubotu> rumour has it, resolution is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[02:15] <Andronicus> im using a modem, so how can I upgrade to 6.06 1 file at a time??
[02:15] <Andronicus> ompaul: im using a modem, so how can I upgrade to 6.06 1 file at a time??
[02:15] <Tano> no
[02:15] <theine> Mysta_: This should really happen automatically I guess
[02:16] <IcemanV9> OR gpaint
[02:16] <apokryphos> ProN00b: a KDE application, yes. It of course runs perfectly in GNOME.
[02:16] <Tano> I installed on HD
[02:16] <harry> Sivik: 2.6.12-9-386: am i right.
[02:16] <apokryphos> Tano: read the FAQ
[02:16] <Tano> and everythig works gret
[02:16] <bennyboy> maybe try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:16] <Tano> great
[02:16] <Sivik> harry: not right, thats the brezzy
[02:16] <harry> SivikL i checked it on the uname -r
[02:16] <Mysta_> theine: Is there a file should check to make sure it happens this way in the future?
[02:16] <theine> Mysta_: In order to be able to access data CD's, they have to be mounted
[02:16] <ProN00b> apokryphos, ya, ryte i am going to install 150 megs of kde libs
[02:16] <cafuego> Seveas: You're doing well, webalizer reckons the mirror is moving ~ 50GB per month.
[02:16] <bennyboy> tano: maybe try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:16] <Andronicus> Concord_Dawn: im using a modem, so how can I upgrade to 6.06 1 file at a time??
[02:16] <jadenguy> Hello help channel.
[02:16] <theine> Mysta_: perhaps /etc/fstab
[02:16] <Sivik> harry: run "man /proc/version"
[02:16] <ompaul> Andronicus, get the CD it will save you far too much pain, the other thing would take days (its hundreds of megs of download)
[02:16] <Sivik> and then tell me the output
[02:16] <Mysta_> theine: ok
[02:16] <jadenguy> I'm interested in a little help here.  Could anybody be of assistance right now?
[02:16] <harry> Sivik:so i'm still on the breezy? right now i'm running the package manager.
[02:16] <Andronicus> ompaul: really?
[02:16] <apokryphos> ProN00b: kdelibs is nothing like that. Are you low on space?
[02:16] <Sivik> and pastbin your sources.list file
[02:17] <theine> Mysta_: Does that file contain a line that starts with "/dev/hda"?
[02:17] <apokryphos> !info kdelibs dapper
[02:17] <Alethes> I've downloaded all of gnome with a modem
[02:17] <Sivik> harry: thats cool
[02:17] <ubotu> kdelibs: (core libraries from the official KDE release), section kde, is optional. Version: 4:3.5.2-0ubuntu18 (dapper), Packaged size: 34 kB, Installed size: 88 kB
[02:17] <Tobberoth> I want my monitor to be set to 60hz. I went to System->Preferences->Screen resolution, but it won't let me change hz to anything but 75hz
[02:17] <Alethes> it takes about 2 days
[02:17] <gorski> totem want play (This is an audio-only file, and there is no audio output available.)
[02:17] <apokryphos> well, not that
[02:17] <Andronicus> ompaul: I can upgrade ysing the CD?
[02:17] <Tano> any suggestions?
[02:17] <Sivik> harry: pastebin your sources.list and then give the url and i can check it
[02:17] <Tano> in private chat?
[02:17] <Sivik> Tano: what kind of card
[02:17] <ompaul> Andronicus, u can start it
[02:17] <Andronicus> ompaul: upgrade manager startred, how can I stop it?
[02:17] <Tano> ati radeon 9600 128 MB ram
[02:17] <ompaul> click on close
[02:17] <Sivik> !tell Tano about ati
[02:17] <apokryphos> Tano: why is it so hard to read the FAQ? It provides the exact instructions.
[02:17] <swim> hey folks is there howto for e17 dapper? anyone at all?
[02:18] <jadenguy> Anybody know how to install 6.06 using the livecd and not changing your time to UTC, if i use windows with ubuntu?
[02:18] <ProN00b> apokryphos, that doesn't calculate the deps, does it
[02:18] <Mysta_> theine: /dev/hda        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
[02:18] <Sivik> swim: use the cvs
[02:18] <bennyboy> Tano: maybe try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:18] <harry> whats the site for paste bin. and the command again to see my sources.list from the terminal
[02:18] <theine> Mysta_: That looks very fine
[02:18] <Andronicus> ompaul: upgrade manager has started, how can I stop it?  there is no close or end button
[02:18] <ompaul> Andronicus, do you pay for bandwith used? or connection time
[02:18] <ProN00b> apokryphos, Need to get 17.6MB of archives.
[02:18] <ProN00b> After unpacking 61.0MB of additional disk space will be used.
[02:18] <kallei> i get the following error E: Couldn't find package linux-headers-2.6.16-ck12-custom    what in gods name should i do to get this right?
[02:18] <theine> Mysta_: Are you using KDE or Gnome?

[02:18] <apokryphos> ProN00b: can't spare the space?
[02:18] <Tano> wow
[02:18] <Mysta_> theine: NO GDM
[02:18] <Andronicus> ompaul: upgrade manager has started, how can I stop it?  there is no close or end button
[02:18] <theine> Mysta_: ?
[02:18] <Tano> I'm really new with linux
[02:18] <Tobberoth> Anyone who can help me? My monitor dies all the time!
[02:18] <ompaul> Andronicus, are you going to ask my last question
[02:19] <Mysta_> theine: neither, i dont have any GUI installed. I plan on installin xfce
[02:19] <theine> Mysta_: What do you mean?
[02:19] <jadenguy> kubuntu's installer let you install in a windows mode, and wouldn't change your time setting.
[02:19] <theine> Mysta_: Aha! That's why
[02:19] <Andronicus> Tobberoth: get a new monitor you cheapskate
[02:19] <Sivik> Tobberoth: maybe try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:19] <theine> Mysta_: If you're not using any desktop environment, you have to mount the CD manually
[02:19] <Alethes> man, it's weird seeing all these problems people have with Ubuntu.  I just installed from the live cd and it just worked -- everything
[02:19] <Tobberoth> Sivik: I'd rather not, too many options I don't know much about.
[02:19] <Mysta_> theine: man this is awesome, im learning.... so nothing gets mounted when there is no GUI
[02:19] <ompaul> Andronicus, you could do this, open a terminal, type xkill and click on that window
[02:19] <Tobberoth> I think the problem is it's set to 75hz, it only supports 60.
[02:19] <Mysta_> theine ok ok ok
[02:19] <Andronicus> ompaul: using diual up only! infinate bandwith
[02:19] <Tobberoth> But it won't let me change the value
[02:19] <bullrage> You guys read about Mark Shuttleworth and his VISA fiasco?
[02:19] <Sivik> Tobberoth: then use the drivers for your video card to do it
[02:19] <Andronicus> ompaul: why?
[02:20] <Tobberoth> Sivik: Howd?
[02:20] <detectiveinspekt> I updated ubuntu 5.10 and restarted now the gui fails to open now
[02:20] <Sivik> harry: are you doing both of those?
[02:20] <harry> Sivik: i need the exact command for the sources.list. my permission was denied
[02:20] <Sivik> Tobberoth: what kind of video card
[02:20] <apokryphos> bullrage: no, tell us in #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:20] <theine> Mysta_: To unmount you do either "sudo umount /mnt" or "sudo umount /dev/cdrom"
[02:20] <Tobberoth> Sivik: It's a Nvidia 7800GS
[02:20] <linux_user400354> does vino server work in xfce or can it only work in gnome?
[02:20] <harry> Sivik: what those???
[02:20] <Sivik> harry: sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:20] <Sivik> harry: run "sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:21] <Sivik> harry: without the "
[02:21] <Andronicus> ompaul: I killed it with xkill!  seeing it started to upgrade, has it damaged my boot now?
[02:21] <ompaul> Andronicus, your going to give all your time to downloading for the next few days - a CD should be easy enough to get to, then you change the sources file back, sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list and change the word dapper back to breezy
[02:21] <Andronicus> ompaul:  it says there are 560 updates :P LOL
[02:21] <theine> Mysta_: Also, you can mount the CD in any (empty) directory you want. Just replace /mnt with the desired directory
[02:21] <Sivik> Toberroth: install the nvidia drivers
[02:21] <harry> Sivik: vi command not found
[02:21] <Tobberoth> Sivik: I have them installed
[02:21] <bennyboy> detectiveinspekt, what error message are you getting
[02:21] <Sivik> Tobberoth: then i have no clue
[02:21] <theine> Mysta_: A good place to mount the CD is /media/cdrom0
[02:22] <Sivik> harry: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:22] <aquarius> The Ubuntu docs at http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/installing-from-cd.html say I can pick "Install to the hard disk" or "Install a LAMP server", but I don't get those options when booting a newly downloaded Dapper CD; just "Start or Install Ubuntu".
[02:22] <Mysta_> theine: i have it mounted to /mnt right now right?
[02:22] <Tobberoth> Sivik: Actually, it's when I installed them I got the problem in the first place.
