[12:01] <tovella> facerape: sorry i forgot  - totem is now the default. does totem play sounds?
[12:01] <Timir> ablyss, What do you mean WAN and LAN? _<
[12:01] <facerape> ok cool i set password
[12:01] <smax> but in list of the devices there no sound cards
[12:01] <gatekeeper> vilefridge: you have installed xubuntu?
[12:01] <tovella> jmpmjmpm: another part of why i got rid of the drivers.
[12:01] <ablyss> Timir, you best to use $40 NAT router.
[12:01] <Timir> ablyss, <_< I have a router...
[12:01] <facerape> fuck knows mate im able to play ogg vids
[12:02] <jmpmjmpm> lol
[12:02] <vilefridge> gatekeeper: correct.  Here's a thread regarding the RAID install process I followed: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=196005
[12:02] <ablyss> not that linux isn't good at NAT
[12:02] <facerape> from the examples folder
[12:02] <jmpmjmpm> did you also get rid of the printer?
[12:02] <Timir> A friend just went "Oh, it's not going to the internet because you don't have NAT set up!"
[12:02] <ablyss> but teaching you how to use linux as NAT ....i'd rather pull my hair out
[12:02] <vilefridge> gatekeeper: I'm 'eric.ws.anderson' in that thread
[12:02] <facerape> ok best video player for ubuntu
[12:02] <hawkaloogie> facerape, totem-xine
[12:02] <freezey> xmms
[12:02] <ablyss> Timir, you router should be NAT ready
[12:02] <facerape> i use videolan on my windows machines
[12:03] <tovella> facerape: good - that means your sound card is working.  do you have a DVD player and a DVD movie we could use test?
[12:03] <Timir> ablyss, If the computer is getting internet, then NAT is not needed, right?
[12:03] <kristian> I have now installed wine and mozilla (windows edition) and when I try to open http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/ to test the shockwave, mozilla want's me to download a default.cache file or something. Why and what's that file?
[12:03] <facerape> yeah it has a dvd player
[12:03] <facerape> ill just go get a dvd
[12:03] <facerape> brb
[12:03] <smax> People help me i've got to soundcard's what should i do to see them
[12:03] <ablyss> Timir, NAT is already in use... if you had no internet, you would not be using NAT
[12:03] <Timir> ablyss, k, thanks
[12:03] <ablyss> yw
 i use videolan on my windows machines <-- I use that on just about all platforms I use :P
[12:04] <smax> is there any tools like alsaconfig in Slackware
[12:04] <socket7> Has anyone here ever gotten idectl working properly?
[12:04] <smax> i want to run autodetect my soundcards
[12:05] <vircuser> I want to get Wireless for my house (from scratch...I have no components)...anyone know what requirements Ubuntu needs?
[12:05] <cntb> smax how old is your sound card ?
[12:05] <cntb> I hope not an ISAPNP
[12:05] <smax> it's work's on 5.10
[12:06] <tovella> vircuser: i don't think there are any special requirments.
[12:06] <vircuser> tovella: So if I go to my shop and just my any old wireless and wireless cards it will all work? :/
[12:06] <Reimu> Is there any way to make ubuntu's terminal colours white on black, instead of black on white? This setup bothers me >_>
[12:06] <vircuser> *buy
[12:06] <smax> this soundcard worked on 5.10 on 6.06 it doesn't work
[12:06] <gatekeeper> vilefridge: everything you have told me suggests that no sound stuff has been installed at all, the command lshw will tell you what your hardware is, but I am not sure how you would sort this one out
[12:07] <yallaman> how can i get dual monitors to work?
[12:07] <valehru> trying to get xgl up and running according to the how-to....have logged into a gnome xgl session
[12:07] <ablyss> Reimu, you can adjust gnome-terminals schema easily by editing the preferences
[12:07] <pandora--> AM_PATH_GTK... where would this be? and why cant i compile things that need it?
[12:07] <Reimu> ablyss: Oh its a gnome thing not a terminal thing?
[12:08] <vilefridge> gatekeeper: says it's the Nvidia CK804.  I tried installing Nvidia drivers, but taht didn't help either.
[12:08] <Reimu> ablyss: where is it?
[12:08] <valehru> the next step it says to do is" gnome-window-decorator & however I get the message  [1]  5680.  When I try and run compiz --replace gconf decoration wobbly fade minimize cube rotate zoom scale move resize place switcher water & I get the error message [1]    Exit 1                  gnome-window-decorator
[12:08] <valehru> valehru@ubuntu:~$ compiz.real: No composite extension
[12:08] <smax> Somebody help me! i have no sound in 5.10 everything worked fine but in 6.06 it doesn't.
[12:08] <tovella> vircuser: can't promise you that, but if you get a wireless router, and a wireless card or USB device from the same manufacturer, it should work.  I've had great success with the DLink products.
[12:08] <BoSJo> All: Hi, new to Linux, Using Kubuntu latest dist. and i'm just about 3 days in to Linux. Everything is now up and running, except my Brother MFC-8420 printer. Got an advice yesterday on how to install it, been sitting all day trying to remove it again since it f..... the whole sys. got rid of it now and sys is ok.
[12:09] <BoSJo> http://solutions.brother.com/linux/sol/printer/linux/cups_drivers.html
[12:09] <BoSJo> can i safly install these drivers for Debian
[12:09] <cntb> what is the competitor in ubuntu for exchange server for small business?
[12:09] <smax> 2 soundcards and no sound it's terrible
[12:09] <gatekeeper> vilefridge: think you need someone with a bit more knowledge than me sorry
[12:10] <facerape> smax - try removing one of them
[12:10] <tovella> BoSJo: i tried those drivers with a Beta of Dapper.    They haven't had any further development for a couple of years.
[12:10] <facerape> it maybe getting crossover issues with trying to run 2 at once
[12:10] <facerape> either way back and who wanted me to test a dvd?
[12:10] <Cntryboy> nickrud: see I told you, I would lose visual, everything boots up and everything but my screen is blankkk
[12:11] <Cntryboy> nickrud: i had to go through reconfig 3 times just to get back here with vesa driver
[12:11] <vilefridge> gatekeeper: ok, thanks for the help!
[12:11] <BoSJo> tovella: so no way to get it up and running then?? can i use some generic driver instead
[12:11] <facerape> tovella: what to do with this dvd?
[12:11] <smax> facerape I change motherboard on this motherboard this soundcard worked 2 mothes ago.
[12:11] <tovella> facerape: just remembered - DVD playing requires a codec that is NOT free, thus not included with Ubuntu.  I used EasyUbuntu http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/
[12:12] <facerape> can i steel it via torrents
[12:12] <facerape> and can you link me a torrent
[12:12] <facerape> i dont have internet on the ububtu b0x yet

[12:17] <facerape> ok what do i need to get dvd playback?
[12:18] <nosilver4u> is it possible to switch from 32-bit to 64-bit without reinstalling?
[12:18] <kristian> why do u want to do that nisilver4u?
[12:18] <Graig> eNons3nse: i thought qparted was a partition resizer.
[12:18] <mjr> nosilver4u, not really
[12:18] <nosilver4u> facerape: all the gstreamer plugin packages from universe and multiverse, and gxine
[12:18] <facerape> nocilver4u: i seriousely doubt it
[12:18] <nosilver4u> i just upgraded to a 64-bit cpu, and don't really care to reinstall if i don't have to
[12:18] <nikhil> yeah i'm back
[12:18] <eNons3nse> Graig: i don't know.  never done it before.
[12:19] <nikhil> sorry for the sudden brb nicolas___
[12:19] <nosilver4u> couldn't i just change my repositories, and upgrade?
[12:19] <facerape> tbh i have no idea
[12:19] <facerape> i know with win you need a full install
[12:19] <eNons3nse> Graig: what can i used to partition a new HD?
[12:19] <Graig> eNons3nse: try the "disks" applet under system, administration.
[12:19] <facerape> no upgrade from xp to xp64
[12:19] <tovella> k31th: yeah scp will work, so will rsync.
[12:19] <Graig> eNons3nse: there should be a create button under the hdd there.
[12:20] <iamelite> LOL...
[12:20] <nosilver4u> i'm not trying to do xp, i want ubuntu 64
[12:20] <valehru> gah
[12:20] <iamelite> Never ask #cedega for help with thier software.
[12:20] <socket7> Does anyone know how to make removable CD rom drives hotpluggable with ubuntu? I tried using idectl but it always errors out.
[12:20] <smax> So is there any tool like alsaconf in Slackware
[12:20] <facerape> otherwise you just end up forcing your 64 bit proc to run at 32
[12:20] <eNons3nse> Graig: i can see the drive in there, but the create button is greyed out (inactive).  it's like that for all my drives.
[12:20] <valehru> I need help....I tried to install xgl and now my windows manager has completely dissappeared
[12:20] <valehru> I have no window manager...help
[12:20] <facerape> does totem movie player do dvd?

[12:21] <Ribs> he seems to think I work for transgaming, or somehow owe him something
[12:21] <Skripo> ???
[12:21] <Ribs> *shrug*
[12:21] <nosilver4u> can you run 32-bit apps on ubuntu 64?
[12:21] <Skripo> What does that mean?
[12:21] <facerape> doesnt it need codecs?
[12:21] <nosilver4u> or do you have to go 64 all the way?
[12:21] <Cyorxamp> Can ubuntu play theora encoded video out of the box!?
[12:21] <Ribs> "got the hump" -> "Got annoyed"
[12:21] <tovella> facerape: you can download EasyUbuntu even with a windows machine.
[12:21] <Ribs> Cyorxamp: I believe so
[12:21] <Skripo> Ah
[12:21] <Graig> eNons3nse: type disks-admin in the console, for some reason the default had gksu in front of thename.
[12:21] <NickGarvey> Cyorxamp: I think so because its OSS
[12:21] <kdefreak> nosilver4u: in a chroot enviornment i would go 32bit all the way IMHO
[12:22] <Skripo> Maybe if he had a subscription he would get the help he needed
[12:22] <Cyorxamp> what other video codecs out the box?
[12:22] <facerape> i know that but i want to keep my system resonably cleen
[12:22] <facerape> i dont need all the shit easyubuntu installs
[12:22] <Ribs> Skripo: I think he does, or did... but had no idea how to actually ask for help

[12:24] <erUSUL> facerape: try sudo eject /dev/hdxx
[12:25] <anto9us> facerape, if it's mounted it won't, add the disk mounter to your panel, that's useful

[12:27] <majd> how can i find out if it's an ubuntu or a mac problem?
[12:27] <Jack_Sparrow> pawsilver: Wine
[12:27] <facerape> rather than copying the installation files to the hdd
[12:27] <facerape> and then install off that
[12:27] <facerape> or run
[12:28] <vizo> has anyone had any luck getting their quickcam to work with umbuntu?

[12:30] <anto9us> ubotu tell facerape about install
[12:30] <Jack_Sparrow> FAce, so you are running live right
[12:30] <realjimshady> I tried the "simple video method" as well
[12:31] <facerape> no idea
[12:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Tough to help you with that much info
[12:31] <realjimshady> Appreciate any suggestions.  I have 6+ other Dapper boxen, but this video thing is a weird one.  Google has been unhelpful
[12:31] <facerape> i dl'd the first file it has in the download section
[12:31] <linux_user400354> how can i get mozilla firebird?
[12:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Face, do you have an option on the desktop for INSTALL
[12:32] <Cyorxamp> linux_user400354 - search for firefox
[12:32] <smax> What soud server used dapper and where is my sound config
[12:32] <facerape> no idea
[12:32] <facerape> i deleted my windows partion
[12:32] <facerape> and stuck the disk in
[12:32] <linux_user400354> Cyorxamp i said firebird
[12:32] <Jack_Sparrow> linux_user400354: tought when it dosent exist, thunderbird howerver does and works fine using add programs
[12:32] <facerape> then it said install/run ubuntu
[12:32] <facerape> when i did it it b00ted up
[12:32] <Cyorxamp> linux_user400354 - so you want an old version of firefox?
[12:32] <facerape> then when i shut down and tried to boot again
[12:32] <anto9us> facerape, there's an installer available after you've booted
[12:32] <brotherJohn1234> linux_user400354: or songbird  ?
[12:32] <facerape> it went back to the same point
[12:32] <bjornkri> ohoy
[12:33] <linux_user400354> nevermind
[12:33] <realjimshady> facerape - where are you stuck at - I may be at the same point
[12:33] <facerape> im going through the boot process again

[12:34] <ubotu> I know nothing about cock
[12:34] <bjornkri> I've managed to connect to my work through VPN, but I'm not sure how to access the drives over there... Is there a way to access windows shares?

[12:34] <realjimshady> Anyone: Getting "Failed to start X server" at boot of a fresh install AND when using LiveCD's "safe video" mode -- any ideas?
[12:34] <Cyorxamp> !linux
[12:34] <ubotu> linux is the kernel (core) of the Ubuntu operating system. Many operating systems use Linux as kernel.  Also see http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 - !equivalents - http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm
[12:36] <bjornkri> Installing first :) Thanks
[12:36] <Cyorxamp> LOL!
[12:36] <bjornkri> I'll see how that goes
[12:36] <NickGarvey> Jack_Sparrow: okie, hes just special, thank you
[12:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Still want to see if we can help,
[12:36] <eNons3nse> NickGarvey: i gave up on getting my sata drive to work.  from what i figured out its a problem with that version of the kernel.  need to compile a newer one.
[12:37] <dli> gnome in dapper is too buggy for most?
[12:37] <coopster> dli: works fine for me
[12:37] <NickGarvey> eNons3nse: what version of ubuntu did you sue?
[12:37] <Jack_Sparrow> I have two or three machines running sata drives and did nothing to configure them
[12:37] <dli> coopster, memory leak, firefox keeps crashing (it works well in fluxbox)
[12:38] <chaos_of_apocaly> can anyone tell me the command to start the X server from the shell????
[12:38] <Expedia> X
[12:38] <erUSUL> Cyorxamp: please do /msg ubotu topic
[12:38] <coopster> chaos_of_apocaly: startx
[12:38] <facerape> Jack_Sparrow: where is this desktop installation thing
[12:38] <dli> chaos_of_apocaly, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[12:38] <Expedia> X is the command.
[12:38] <NickGarvey> chaos_of_apocaly: "gdm"
[12:38] <Expedia> Or use Xorg.
[12:38] <Jack_Sparrow> facerape: are you booted to the live cd?
[12:38] <facerape> i have no idea
[12:38] <Jack_Sparrow> do you see an install option on the desktop
[12:38] <Expedia> NickGarvey, doesn't that command start the Gnome Desktop Manager?
[12:38] <coopster> dli: no clue, havent heard of that
[12:38] <anto9us> chaos_of_apocaly, best to restart gdm,
[12:39] <NickGarvey> Expedia: yes, which starts X
[12:39] <facerape> ive booted to the first thing that is availiable in the dl section of the ubuntu
[12:39] <facerape> site
[12:39] <eNons3nse> dapper with the default kernel
[12:39] <Expedia> NickGarvey, roger and hello.
[12:39] <anto9us> chaos_of_apocaly, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[12:39] <NickGarvey> :)
[12:39] <Cyorxamp> erUSUL - lol
[12:39] <tanlaan> hey all
[12:39] <dli> coopster, how much ram do you have there?
[12:39] <Jack_Sparrow> facerape:  you put in the cd and power up or reboot and tell me everything you see beofre you touch anything
[12:40] <facerape> Jack_Sparrow: all i see is a blank desktop
[12:40] <tanlaan> i have just installed a few MOO servers using synaptic...where do i go to find them?
[12:40] <facerape> just black
[12:40] <coopster> dli: 1 gig
[12:40] <dli> coopster, memory leaking is noticed first on systems with tight memory
[12:40] <coopster> dli: i'm aware, i havent seen many people complaining about it though
[12:40] <dli> coopster, maybe that's why, I was talking about one with 192MB
[12:41] <coopster> ...
[12:41] <facerape> Jack_Sparrow: ok ive got examples + install on the desktop
[12:41] <coopster> gnomefreak: change of heart?
[12:41] <facerape> anyone got any ideas?
[12:41] <Jack_Sparrow> face, we need to start from something we can recognize...
[12:41] <gnomefreak> coopster: noi
[12:41] <gnomefreak> no
[12:41] <Jack_Sparrow> finally, click on INSTALL
[12:41] <smax> How can i change my sound card
[12:41] <cartesian1984> All right...I have xserver problems. Does it print to a logfile anywhere?
[12:41] <marktzar> anyone tell me how to change the permission to "write" of a drive I mounted? it wont let me because I'm "not the owner"
[12:41] <facerape> take one out and plug in a new one?
[12:41] <dli> smax, it should work auto
[12:41] <tanlaan> where can i find my programs that i have installed in synaptic?
[12:42] <smax> dli it doesn't
[12:42] <crimsun> smax: as in you have a new one, or?
[12:42] <dli> marktzar, can you mount with -ouid= (for ntfs), or simply chown ?
[12:42] <anto9us> tanlaan, click the package again in synaptic, select properties and you can list installed files
[12:42] <tanlaan> i know that
[12:42] <nickwebcouk> alright folks - quikie for yas.. i want to use spamassassin to filter my mail, but i retrieve it from a POP box on my webserver.. is there any way to have the mail downloaded to a folder, have spamassassin run on it, then let evolution retrieve it from the folder? (if that makes sense,..)
[12:42] <tanlaan> but...
[12:42] <pandora--> AM_PATH_GTK... where would this be? and why cant i compile things that need it?
[12:42] <pandora--> :(
[12:42] <smax> crimsun change motherboard on this motherboard this sound card worked fine last time
[12:42] <dli> smax, if it doesn't, lspci to find the model, and put the module name in /etc/modules
[12:43] <tanlaan> i cant find the right file it installed
[12:43] <cartesian1984> tanlaan: one of those installed files will be the binary, and you can just put the filename in the terminal and it should run.
[12:43] <cartesian1984> tanlaan: It will probably be in /usr/bin
[12:43] <johan_> I finally got compiz to work! I recommend all of you who have failed to try this guide instead: http://dl.tv/blogs/digitallifetv/default.aspx
[12:43] <tanlaan> ok
[12:43] <smax> dli and what server should i restart
[12:43] <tanlaan> thanks
[12:43] <tanlaan> ill try that
[12:43] <anto9us> tanlaan, do you know the name of it? Try locate <file> from a terminal window
[12:44] <Ackeubu_> hey guys i need libmp3lame.so for audiocity. i have found libmp3lame.so.0 on my system.. is that the file i need? or do i need to do anything with libmp3lame.so.o to make it an libmp3lame.so?
[12:44] <johan_> My login screen is 1600x1200 but I want it to be 1280x1024, what do I change?
[12:44] <Celeste> hi
[12:44] <crimsun> smax: ok, is the device detected? pastebin ``cat /proc/asound/cards && amixer''
[12:44] <tanlaan> yea i do know the name but i think i found the right ifle
[12:44] <tanlaan> file*
[12:44] <cartesian1984> johan_: My xserver didn't start when I tried. Do you know where I can find the xserver logfiles?
[12:44] <Celeste> what is a good p2p program which *really* works and does not use java?
[12:44] <dli> smax, modprobe the module first, then, sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[12:44] <bjornkri> realjimshady: smb4k is a KDE app, so it installed all sorts of junk, and in the end didn't even find the work network :\
[12:44] <anto9us> tanlaan, which <file> will tell you the first one in the path that matches and would run when you typed it
[12:44] <cartesian1984> Celeste: bittornado, gtk-gnutella, and especialy amule.
[12:44] <NickGarvey> !p2p
[12:44] <gnomefreak> Celeste: amule? im not sure if its java or not
[12:44] <ubotu> Conventional P2P clients: Limewire/GTK-Gnutella/Frostwire (Gnutella Network). BitTorrent: see !torrent Direct connect: try valknut
[12:44] <dli> cartesian1984, /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[12:44] <johan_> cartesian1984: no. Did you follow the same guide as I did?
[12:45] <crimsun> dli: why "restart" alsa-utils? That only resets volumes.
[12:45] <cartesian1984> dli: Thanks.
[12:45] <cartesian1984> johan_: Nah, different one.
[12:45] <nickwebcouk> anyone? : i want to use spamassassin to filter my mail, but i retrieve it from a POP box on my webserver.. is there any way to have the mail downloaded to a folder, have spamassassin run on it, then let evolution retrieve it from the folder? (if that makes sense,..)
[12:45] <dli> crimsun, to make sure it's up
[12:45] <crimsun> there's no such thing as "restarting the sound subsystem"
[12:45] <bjornkri> Any other thoughts? I thought I should be able to log into the domain somehow, using my login and password from there, but no such dialog appears when I try accessing the drives
[12:45] <Celeste> thank you cartesian1984, NickGarvey and gnomefreak
[12:45] <dibblego> I opened a bug in a gtk library a few days ago, and it's quite crippling - I've never opened a bug, so I don't know how long they usually take to fix, so I'm wondering how long it takes, and it is much longer, I'll have to use KDE - I don't mean to be pushy, but what's the usual bug fix time?
[12:45] <bjornkri> !samba
[12:45] <ubotu> samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[12:45] <gnomefreak> dibblego: what bug number?
[12:46] <crimsun> dibblego: we're very, very busy
[12:46] <dibblego> let me find it
[12:46] <_grout> how can i get ssh and vsftp to start on startup?
[12:46] <dibblego> crimsun, I understand that - I don't mean to sound rude or anything
[12:46] <johan_> I saw the guys on dl.tv use a nice little config app for xgl/compiz, not gconf but another one. Does anyone by any chance know the name of that one?
[12:46] <crimsun> dibblego: not to mention some of us do Ubuntu work in our spare time and not as a profession
[12:46] <dibblego> gnomefreak, 50836
[12:46] <gnomefreak> ty
[12:46] <Ackeubu_> Hey guys what is a file that ends with an .o ??
[12:46] <gnomefreak> dibblego: ill look at it
[12:47] <dibblego> crimsun, sure, I'm just not sure if I should use KDE in the meantime - again, I don't mean to sound pushy
[12:47] <Tiako44> If you have a static IP do you have to foward a port for every app you run?
[12:47] <smax> dli 0000:00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 40) -- i have this one. What should i write in /etc/modules
[12:47] <dibblego> Ackeubu_, an object file
[12:47] <marktzar> dli
[12:47] <crimsun> smax: don't touch /etc/modules
[12:47] <anto9us> _grout, ssh server? that will configure itself to run on startup when you install it, I don't know abotu vs
[12:47] <marktzar> hold on
[12:47] <dli> smax, most likely, snd_intel8x0
[12:47] <marktzar> !unmount
[12:47] <ubotu> I know nothing about unmount
[12:47] <gnomefreak> dibblego: kde is gonna be even busier i think
[12:47] <crimsun> dli: no.
[12:47] <anto9us> ..vsftp, I don't use it
[12:47] <marktzar> hmm, how do I unmount a drive?
[12:47] <crimsun> (snd_via82xx, but /don't/ touch /etc/modules)
[12:47] <Ackeubu_> dibblego so libmp3lame.so.o is the object and libmp3lame.so is the source??
[12:47] <dibblego> gnomefreak, yeah probably, but there is not much I can seem to do with GNOME at the moment because of this problem
[12:47] <userundefine> umount /dev/$device
[12:48] <crimsun> smax: please pastebin the output from ``amixer''
[12:48] <crimsun> smax: I'll give you further advice once I've read your paste
[12:48] <anto9us> marktzar, sudo umount <mount point>
[12:48] <smax> amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such device
[12:48] <crimsun> smax: lsmod |grep ^snd_via82xx
[12:48] <dli> smax, cat /proc/asound/cards
[12:48] <dibblego> gnomefreak, if I knew how to fix it, I'd do it myself - I might educate myself on it when I get time - haven't used C in a while
[12:48] <gnomefreak> dibblego: do a few things for me
[12:49] <dibblego> gnomefreak, sure
[12:49] <gnomefreak> dibblego: run sudo apt-get update
[12:49] <gnomefreak> dibblego: let me know when done
[12:49] <dibblego> ok
[12:49] <smax> root@smax:/etc# cat /proc/asound/cards
[12:49] <smax> --- no soundcards ---
[12:49] <crimsun> dibblego: (and make sure you have -security and -updates enabled)
[12:49] <dibblego> gnomefreak, done
[12:49] <dibblego> crimsun, I'm almost sure I do (I'll check)
[12:49] <crimsun> nickrud: are you intentionally triggering my sound highlight?
[12:49] <gnomefreak> dibblego: sudo aptitude install libgtk2.0-bin
[12:50] <gnomefreak> dibblego: use aptitude please
[12:50] <smax> dli no soundcard detected
[12:50] <dibblego> crimsun, yes I do
[12:50] <nickrud> crimsun, no, sorry
[12:50] <crimsun> smax: what's the output from the lsmod command I gave you above?
[12:50] <Jack_Sparrow> smax, what onboard sound does your system have?
[12:50] <dibblego> gnomefreak, segmentation fault
[12:50] <gnomefreak> dibblego: sudo dpkg --configure -a
[12:51] <dibblego> gnomefreak, segmentation fault
[12:51] <crimsun> dibblego: ``apt-cache policy libgtk2.0-bin''
[12:51] <gnomefreak> dibblego: ok give me a sec

[12:51] <smax> crimsun nothing
[12:51] <Jack_Sparrow> thanks
[12:51] <Ackeubu_> dibblego so libmp3lame.so.o is the object and libmp3lame.so is the source??
[12:51] <crimsun> smax: then it's not loaded. ``sudo modprobe snd_via82xx''
[12:51] <tanlaan> how would i go about...makeing a shortcut to start my program, and lets say to normally start my program *server* that i must cd to the directoty and type ./Startmux?
[12:52] <gnomefreak> lol brb have to do something
[12:52] <Ackeubu_> dibblego or what is the difference between libmp3lame.so and  libmp3lame.so.o??
[12:52] <dibblego> Ackeubu_, .so stands for shared object
[12:52] <tanlaan> or maybe how to make it so my computer will start the program that way on startup
[12:52] <dli> tanlaan, you can use menu, System -> Preferences -> Sessions
[12:52] <crimsun> Ackeubu_: that's a trailing zero '0', not a lowercase oh 'o'
[12:53] <DarkMageZ> anyone know of any repositories which have the fglrx 8.26 drivers?
[12:53] <dibblego> crimsun gnomefreak : http://rafb.net/paste/results/raUfgf87.html
[12:53] <tanlaan> dli:and use startup pograms?
[12:53] <tanlaan> *programs
[12:53] <dli> tanlaan, if you mean daemons, you can add to /etc/init.d/, and update-rc.d
[12:53] <dibblego> crimsun, note the last part for your last request
[12:53] <crimsun> smax: have you executed the modprobe command yet?
[12:53] <smax> crimsun yes
[12:54] <smax> but no sound
[12:54] <Ackeubu_> crimsun so what is the difference between a shared object .so and having an trailing .0 after the .so.0??
[12:54] <mag>  have somebody installed limewire or frostwire on your pc using compiz and xgl ?
[12:54] <crimsun> dibblego: so now ``sudo apt-get upgrade''
[12:54] <tanlaan> dli: well what im trying to do is make it so my MUSH server program will start on starup, so i dont need to interact with it to make it start
[12:54] <alcon> buenas noches alguien habla espaol

[01:02] <Nobbs> I have a bunch of *.cbr files, and a program is assigned to open them (comix)... but still they have the default gnome icon. How do I change the icon for this file type?
[01:02] <JadeRobbins> dli: it's not hidden, it's corrupt. i CANT cd into it
[01:02] <Warbo> smax: You need to reboot to use a newer kernel
[01:02] <GregAsche> Okay, in Ubuntu I created 5 FAT32 partitions spread accross 3 drives, but only two of them register when I boot to Windows. Any idea what's up?
[01:02] <dli> JadeRobbins, which fs? ext3 ?
[01:02] <smax> don't worry i reboot
[01:02] <crimsun> Ackeubu_: sorry, that would be liblame-dev
[01:02] <crimsun> !info liblame-dev
[01:02] <riddlebox> crimsun, thank you so much now I can do apt-get build-dep mythtv! and compile it myself
[01:02] <ubotu> liblame-dev: LAME Ain't an MP3 Encoder. In repository multiverse, is optional. Version 3.96.1-1 (dapper), package size 168 kB, installed size 464 kB
[01:03] <ubuntu> i hope what i did does not mean i have to reinstall windows... looked a little strange.......
[01:03] <Warbo> GregAsche: Are any in "extended" partitions? They might not show up
[01:03] <tanlaan> dli: ok i dont get what i need to do in the Startup programs section
[01:03] <ubuntu>  is 6.06 edgy?
[01:03] <smax> crimsun i have usplash and so on like in dapper
[01:03] <crimsun> ubuntu: no, that's Dapper.
[01:03] <ubuntu> oh ok
[01:03] <tanlaan> dli: i know that i need to click add program...but then what do i need to select?
[01:03] <crimsun> smax: but you're using an old kernel.
[01:03] <ubuntu> this is a nice new little install/livecd thing going on
[01:03] <crimsun> smax: so. ``sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade''
[01:03] <Ackeubu_> crimsun thanks a bunch
[01:03] <crimsun> Ackeubu_: np
[01:03] <dli> tanlaan, gnome-session-properties ?
[01:03] <Ackeubu_> crimsun thanks alot
[01:03] <crimsun> riddlebox: np
[01:04] <`underOATH> is ubuntu good enough to handle a hlds server with metamod and lots of crazy plugins ?
[01:04] <JadeRobbins> dli: yes ext3
[01:04] <tanlaan> dli: what?
[01:04] <ubuntu> only monkeys can do that
[01:04] <ubuntu> underOATH
[01:04] <dobblego> crimsun, sorry, network problems, the upgrade command caused a segmentation fault: http://rafb.net/paste/results/nH5MPD88.html
[01:04] <dli> JadeRobbins, boot a livecd, and run fsck
[01:04] <smax> crimsun but on this kernel this sound worked fine!
[01:04] <dli> tanlaan, you can Add
[01:04] <tanlaan> dli: well the thing i want to add, is a shell script
[01:05] <Dial_tone> I misconfigured compwiz/xgl so I'm gonna try again when I get home
[01:05] <crimsun> smax: and that kernel is incompatible with Dapper's udev!
[01:05] <facerape> ok who wants free porn?
[01:05] <crimsun> facerape: cut it
[01:05] <facerape> im in a generouse mood
[01:05] <tanlaan> dli: its a shell script that starts up my program
[01:05] <dli> tanlaan, whatever, it's a command
[01:05] <Jack_Sparrow> facerape: did you get it going
[01:05] <facerape> crimsun: sending
[01:05] <tanlaan> dli: so should i add the shell script? or what
[01:05] <crimsun> take the offtopic crap out of here now.
[01:06] <Blinocac200sx> This is gonna sound stupid, but I forgot how to boot from a CD with my mac
[01:06] <facerape> jack: yeah its installing to the hdd as i speak
[01:06] <smax> crimsun i started dist-upgrade but no kernel upgrade there
[01:06] <Jack_Sparrow> great
[01:06] <dobblego> crimsun, should I restart GNOME and retry it with the 2.8.18 version perhaps?
[01:06] <facerape> crimsun: you gonna accept or what?
[01:06] <ubuntu> crimsun lol last time i was in this channel crimsun you were a linux noob...
[01:06] <Warbo> tanlaan: Scripts can be added to startup/login but they don't work if there is a space in the path (that's my experience)
[01:06] <Nobbs> According to the Gnome documentation there's a thing called File Types and Programs.... where?
[01:06] <dli> tanlaan, there's a Help there! just test it
[01:07] <tanlaan> ok ill try it :P
[01:07] <GregAsche> Warbo: What do you mean extended partitions?
[01:07] <cartesian1984> Blinocac200sx: You press apple+c or something at boot. Google for boot mac key combinations or something.
[01:07] <Blinocac200sx> ok
[01:07] <cartesian1984> Blinocac200sx: sorry, I don't remember...
[01:07] <Blinocac200sx> thats allright, it's commin back to me
[01:07] <Blinocac200sx> it's just been so long since I did it
[01:07] <crimsun> smax: ``sudo apt-get install linux-image-386''
[01:08] <cartesian1984> Say...is it possible to get direct rendering with the open source ATI driver on a radeon X300?
[01:08] <ubuntu> yes
[01:08] <Warbo> GregAsche: DOD-type harddrives (PC ones, unless you use BSD) can only have up to 4 partitions. However, you can add more by creating an "extended" partition, then create more logical partitions inside that. This is done transparently in Ubuntu, but Windows doesn't really support it
[01:08] <Warbo> DOS-type, sorry
[01:08] <ubuntu> but you have to sacrafice your first born...
[01:08] <cartesian1984> ubuntu: I'm cool with it.
[01:09] <Nobbs> I have a bunch of *.cbr files, and a program is assigned to open them (comix)... but still they have the default gnome icon. How do I change the icon for this file type?
[01:09] <Nobbs> Is this really a tricky thing to do in Nautilus?
[01:09] <ubuntu> actually its very hard, i used to have a laptop with that vid card in it... and lemme tell you... omg just hang yourself now
[01:09] <ubuntu> now  i have a Nvid Quadro NVS 120m
[01:09] <GregAsche> Warbo: I don't really get it, but I don't think I am, as Windows can see that the partitons are there and that they are FAT32, but it won't assign them a letter
[01:10] <GregAsche> or is that an indication that they are extended?
[01:10] <cartesian1984> ubuntu: They say the ones in laptops are difficult to configure, its even worse with the desktop variant..
[01:10] <ubuntu> nah
[01:10] <smax> crimsun after instaling new kernel my sound should be work?
[01:10] <ubuntu> i found the desktop more difficult
[01:10] <crimsun> smax: is it installing 2.6.15-25-386?
[01:10] <frajata> hola todos
[01:10] <ubuntu> the laptop one is cut and dry
[01:10] <cartesian1984> ubuntu: I had it with fglrx drivers, but those are buggy.
[01:11] <ubuntu> just smash it with a hammer and get an nvidea
[01:11] <ubuntu> nvidia*
[01:11] <Nobbs> A Mse once bit my sister ...
[01:11] <ubuntu> nice face.. how did you get unbanned?
[01:11] <smax> crimsun it say that my version it good
[01:11] <crimsun> smax: what does that mean?
[01:11] <dli> cartesian1984, I'm using the quite crappy open source nv driver now :( I heard ati open source driver is better, but still stay away from nvidia/ati, if you can
[01:11] <Ackeubu_> crimsun thank you so much you saved my day. >)
[01:11] <Ackeubu_> byr
[01:11] <Ackeubu_> bye
[01:12] <LuisMendes> anyone used ipod shuffle on dapper?
[01:12] <JadeRobbins> dli: what if i need to fsck a drive othher than the primary one?
[01:12] <smax> crimsun it don't want update kernel
[01:12] <cartesian1984> dli: Are there any decent cards with open source drivers that work?
[01:12] <dli> JadeRobbins, fsck all :(
[01:12] <ubuntu> NVIDIA!
[01:12] <crimsun> smax: pastebin the entire command you're using and the output
[01:12] <Celeste> does anyone have a "server file"  for amule which is good?
[01:12] <Nobbs> Mynd you, mse bites Kan be pretty nasti...
[01:12] <dli> JadeRobbins, if you have no idea how it messed up, time to backup personal data now
[01:12] <frajata> alguien sabe como instalar epson stylus1500
[01:12] <tanlaan> adding the script to startup didnt work
[01:13] <smax> crimsun you don't understand because it's on russian
[01:13] <JadeRobbins> dli: how do i fsck hde1?
[01:13] <cartesian1984> ubuntu: Yeah, I knew nvidia, I was wondering about the other companies. All I ever hear about is ATI/nVidia.
[01:13] <tanlaan> actually wait...
[01:13] <Warbo> GregAsche: Are there any partitions with a number 5 or more that you are trying to use?
[01:13] <JadeRobbins> dli: fsck /dev/hde1?
[01:13] <tanlaan> apparently it deleted it
[01:13] <crimsun> smax: $LANG doesn't matter
[01:13] <ubuntu> thats pretty much it cart
[01:13] <mikedouglas> Is there a edgy channel?
[01:13] <Warbo> GregAsche: (in Ubuntu, like /dev/sda7 or something)
[01:13] <ubuntu> ubuntu+1
[01:13] <mikedouglas> ubuntu: thanks
[01:13] <crimsun> dobblego: ``uname -a''
[01:13] <[A] ndy80> hey boys!
[01:14] <[A] ndy80> a good news :)
[01:14] <ubuntu> lol face how you et unbanned?
[01:14] <dli> JadeRobbins, if you don't care about data loss, " e2fsck -f -y /dev/hde1 "
[01:14] <[A] ndy80> Skype 1.3 is out :P
[01:14] <GregAsche> Warbo: NO
[01:14] <dobblego> crimsun, Linux fjr 2.6.15-25-386 #1 PREEMPT Wed Jun 14 11:25:49 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[01:14] <[A] ndy80> ALSA support!! yeah :)
[01:14] <GregAsche> er, no
[01:14] <LuisMendes> anyone used ipod shuffle on dapper?
[01:14] <smax> crimsun http://pastebin.ca/74383
[01:14] <Warbo> GregAsche: Then I don't know the problem (it seems like a Windows paroblem)
[01:14] <crimsun> dobblego: is Ubuntu running on an amd64 cpu, or is it actually ia32?
[01:15] <GregAsche> gah
[01:15] <GregAsche> thanks for your help
[01:15] <dobblego> crimsun, ia32
[01:15] <riddlebox> apt-get installs everything in /usr right?
[01:15] <JadeRobbins> ug this pisses me off because i'm SURE it's just a screwed up directory pointer and the data is all there
[01:15] <Nobbs> What's the name of the program that handles all the back-end stuff of Gnome again? Not gnome-conf but.... arrgh...
[01:15] <crashzor> Nobbs, mean xorg
[01:15] <smax> crimsun my dist-upgrade think that i have new kernel
[01:15] <Warbo> riddlebox: Important system stuff is in / (/bin, /sbin) and all configs are in /etc
[01:16] <Nobbs> crashzor: nope, not that one
[01:16] <uXp> help installing vnc for ubuntu osmeone
[01:16] <crimsun> dobblego: there's definitely something broken with libc6
[01:16] <Warbo> Nobbs: gconf2
[01:16] <riddlebox> Warbo, if I am compiling from source I should do ./configure --prefix=/usr right?
[01:16] <BSoDirl> has anyone had a problem with symlinks not saving in breezy?
[01:16] <uXp> !vnc
[01:16] <crimsun> dobblego: you can boot from a live cd and verify that everything works properly?
[01:16] <ubotu> vnc is a (slow) way of doing remote desktop, x11vnc uses your current session. A faster remote desktop is !freenx
[01:16] <dobblego> crimsun, excuse my noobness, but I'm not sure what that means
[01:16] <erick> #ubuntu-es
[01:16] <dobblego> crimsun, I'll have to look around for a live CD then get back to you
[01:16] <Nobbs> gconf-editor is the one I'm looking for.. thanks :P
[01:16] <Warbo> riddlebox: I wouldn't, since I like to keep my packages and custom builds seperate
[01:17] <uXp> !freenx
[01:17] <crimsun> smax: ls /boot/vmlinuz*
[01:17] <ubotu> freenx is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreeNX
[01:17] <BSoDirl> i changed my kernel image/headers/rest. modules to k7, and now my '/dev/536ep0 /dev/modem' link will never ever save.
[01:17] <BSoDirl> :*[
[01:17] <smax> crimsun /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.12-9-386  /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-25-386
[01:17] <BSoDirl> reinstalled the modem too, can't be that.
[01:17] <Warbo> riddlebox: Stuff in /usr/local can use all of the libraries and stuff that are in /usr, so I would not recommend installing to /usr. However, I would recommend using checkinstall instead of make install
[01:17] <dobblego> crimsun, I don't have a Ubuntu live CD handy
[01:18] <crimsun> smax: reboot into 2.6.15-25-386, and we'll continue troubleshooting
[01:18] <Nobbs> Is it impossible to assign an icon to a file type in Nautilus?
[01:18] <crimsun> dobblego: please download one, and use it to test
[01:18] <dobblego> crimsun, will do, I'll get back to you later (perhaps an hour?)
[01:18] <Warbo> Nobbs: That is in the MIME database. I think it is /usr/share/shared-mime-info or something
[01:18] <BSoDirl> anyone help me?
[01:18] <erick> #ubuntu-mx
[01:18] <crimsun> facerape: you weren't devoiced, you were muzzled. Off-topic discussion belongs in #ubuntu-offtopic, NOT in here.
[01:18] <BSoDirl> i outlined my problem above.
[01:19] <smax> crimsun What should i change in grup to reboot with another kernel
[01:19] <anto9us> Nobbs, right click a document of that type, select properties, click the icon in that dialog, you can select a custom one there
[01:19] <Nobbs> Warbo: Ah, that should get me somewhere.. thanks
[01:19] <Dapallo> hey, I just installed the latest Gaimn version with Synaptic Package Manager, but everytime I start Gaim, its still the older version.  What do I need to do
[01:19] <salah> which program should I use for taking backup of a VCD?
[01:19] <crimsun> smax: just choose the 2.6.15-25-386 kernel in the grub menu
[01:19] <Warbo> anto9us: That is just for that one file, not the whole filetype
[01:19] <Nobbs> anto9us: Nope, that just changes the icon for that one file, I need all files with a certain extension to change
[01:19] <BSoDirl> hello?
[01:19] <crimsun> smax: do you also use nvidia/fglrx drivers?
[01:19] <elie> sup

[01:21] <crashzor> Dapallo, gaim -version in console plz

[01:21] <viper550> This is a pretty cool thing I think 6.10 should have: http://beatnik.infogami.com/Gimmie
[01:21] <salah> rpedro, no, it's not doing the job...
[01:21] <crimsun> viper550: add it to the candidate list, then.
[01:21] <Dapallo> 1.2.1
[01:21] <viper550> Where that be?
[01:21] <Dapallo> crashzor: 1.2.1
[01:22] <crashzor> notice it ;)
[01:22] <Dapallo> ok
[01:22] <crashzor> let met think for a sec :P
[01:22] <crimsun> viper550: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/New
[01:22] <Dapallo> k
[01:22] <BSoDirl> can anyone hear me at all?
[01:22] <crashzor> Dapallo, you installed 1,5,0 i think ?
[01:22] <BSoDirl> my problem which I've mentioned several times : " I have to type 'ln /dev/536ep0 /dev/modem' everytime I reboo"
[01:22] <Dapallo> yes
[01:22] <davids> hi everyone
[01:22] <Dapallo> no, wait
[01:22] <Dapallo> one sec
[01:22] <nu2ubuntu> hello
[01:22] <crimsun> smax: you need an entry for the new 2.6.15-25-386 kernel. Installing it should have created it for you. Did it not?
[01:23] <brizola> Warbo: only that???
[01:23] <crashzor> BSoDirl, yes but thing is not like a hel desk we don't try to help if we don't know ;) many try to inset it in the boot script or sameting like
[01:24] <BSoDirl> ok that'd be fine crashzor , but where "is" the boot script?
[01:24] <gavagai> how do i share my printer?
[01:24] <nu2ubuntu> i am new to ubuntu and i was wondering if it is possible to dualboot with my existing installation of windows easily
[01:24] <rpedro> salah: try graveman, or k3b
[01:24] <Warbo> brizola: That set up my 17" monitor with 1280x1024 resolution (along with loads of others I have tried)
[01:24] <Dapallo> crashzor: Synaptic Package Manager says the latest version is 1.2.1-1.4 and it used to be 1.2.1-1.1
[01:24] <BSoDirl> ....in breezy?
[01:24] <gavagai> i tried putting the printer's name in 'add printer' thing in windows, it doesn't find it
[01:24] <BSoDirl> n2ubuntu you should be able to just fine.
[01:24] <crashzor> Dapallo, dan it just did update i think
[01:24] <crashzor> BSoDirl, 20 sec plz need to look it up
[01:24] <Warbo> Dapallo: Package versions are not necissarly program versions. Updates may contain the same version, but packaged a little better
[01:25] <Dapallo> oh, okay.
[01:25] <BSoDirl> ty crashzor: everyone else is ignoring me.
[01:25] <davids> can anybody help me? (wifi connection)
[01:25] <kalosaurusrex> !helpme
[01:25] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)

[01:26] <Dapallo> well, actaully, I have another question.  I installed Audactiy, but it gives me some Audio I/O error, are there any drivers I need to download?
[01:26] <Flashq009> what command do I use to decompress a *.tar   file?
[01:26] <crimsun> smax: then you need to tell lilo about the new kernel.
[01:26] <crimsun> Dapallo: does regular sound work?
[01:26] <Dapallo> yes
[01:26] <cartesian1984> Flashq009: just plain tar?
[01:26] <Warbo> nu2ubuntu: Just read the options carefully, don't just "next, next, next, next....."
[01:26] <cartesian1984> Flashq009: No gz?
[01:26] <Flashq009> ok will try it now
[01:26] <crimsun> Dapallo: then all you need to do is uncheck System> Preferences> Sound> Enable software sound mixing (ESD)
[01:27] <cartesian1984> Flashq009: oh, no, I mean the extension,
[01:27] <crimsun> Dapallo: and make sure all other audio apps are closed.
[01:27] <uXp> anyone here use VNC?
[01:27] <Dapallo> ok
[01:27] <PacketScan> uXp, yar
[01:27] <cartesian1984> Flashq009: Its tar -xf file.tar if its just .tar.
[01:27] <styles> is there a faq on reinstating ubuntus root user
[01:27] <Flashq009> ok I will try it again
[01:27] <crimsun> smax: does Ubuntu on your install boot using grub or lilo?
[01:27] <smax> crimsun http://pastebin.ca/74396 my grub
[01:27] <uXp> PacketScan:  can you help me install it?  can i use it like this, view my ubuntu desktop from windows?
[01:27] <Warbo> cartesian1984: -xf will do bz2 and gzip as well, it detects them
[01:27] <Dapallo> umm, there is no Enable software sound mizing

[01:28] <crashzor> BSoDirl, make a new file put into /etc/rc5.d and start using S99 dat woud work i think
[01:28] <elie> anyway 2 play wmv9?
[01:28] <cartesian1984> Stormx2: sudo apt-get install totem-xine libxine-extracodecs
[01:28] <cartesian1984> I think thats it.
[01:28] <crimsun> crashzor: runlevel 2 is our default.
[01:28] <BSoDirl> *thinks*
[01:28] <Flashq009> cartesian1984: it worked ... thank you.
[01:28] <Dapallo> ok, thanks you crimsun and Warbo
[01:29] <Stormx2> cartesian1984: Cheers!
[01:29] <BSoDirl> what's S99 do?
[01:29] <tanlaan> how can you stack commands in terminal?
[01:29] <cartesian1984> Flashq009: No problem. Warbo had a better way.
[01:29] <smax> crimsun which one booting not from hda1?
[01:29] <crashzor> crimsun, how you mean runlevel 2 is default ?
[01:29] <Flashq009> whats a better way?
[01:29] <Warbo> elie: I installed the Nemo codec pack in WINE and copied all of the files it installed to /usr/lib/codecs and now MPlayer can play pretty much anything
[01:29] <crimsun> crashzor: Debian-based distros don't differentiate between init 2 and init 5 by default
[01:29] <crashzor> BSoDirl, S99 run it as last think there is it runs them on nummer order
[01:29] <crimsun> crashzor: they're identical
[01:29] <cartesian1984> Flashq009: just -xf for bzip or gzip. It will autodetect.
[01:29] <Flashq009> cool good to know
[01:29] <BSoDirl> touch foo, sh -c "echo ln /dev/536ep /dev/modem >> foo"?
[01:29] <kalosaurusrex> tanlaan: you mean like, ls | grep <filename>
[01:29] <cartesian1984> Flashq009: Well, tar -xf, you know the score.
[01:29] <Flashq009> than you again
[01:29] <styles> is there a faq out there that shows how to reinstate ubuntu's admin account?
[01:30] <Flashq009> oops thank you again
[01:30] <crashzor> crimsun, i think it das same thinks we i switch from init 3 to init 5
[01:30] <tanlaan> that might be what im looking for
[01:30] <BSoDirl> aha ty crashzor Ill try that
[01:30] <elie> how 2 get wine?
[01:30] <crimsun> BSoDirl: I recommend you create the symlink in /etc/rc.local.
[01:30] <BSoDirl> /etc/rc.5/?
[01:30] <stevekl> Is there a way to display CPU temperature in the notification area in gnome?
[01:30] <crimsun> BSoDirl: put it /before/ the "exit 0"
[01:30] <tanlaan> well in my case i want do a cd and then run a shell script
[01:30] <stevekl> (like next to the clock)
[01:30] <BSoDirl> i didnt see rc.local "looks again"
[01:30] <Warbo> styles: Go into recover mode and run "adduser <usernametobecomeadmin> admin" then reboot
[01:30] <crimsun> BSoDirl: no, don't use /etc/rc5.d/ . We don't play runlevel games.
[01:30] <tanlaan> and i need to stack commands because i want to just make a launcher
[01:30] <BSoDirl> ahh good brb
[01:30] <crimsun> smax: I don't understand what you just said
[01:31] <crashzor> crimsun, becausly if you creat it there it probley wil work out it wil find in on its own its less hackis
[01:31] <talon218> i'm having a problem with sceen res.  I'm stuck on the lowest setting and i can't change it using the screen res utility
[01:31] <BSoDirl> it aint gonna hurt to make a new rc.local is it?
[01:31] <styles> Warbo, will that make it run like other distrobutions where u need an admin account to do everything?
[01:31] <smax> crimsone I have 2 Ubuntu on one hard drive first is not this system
[01:31] <crimsun> crashzor: by default the /correct/ place to place things like that is /etc/rc.local
[01:31] <davids> my wifi connection is now working, but randomly it crush. Ubuntu sometimes stop the usb device (dwl-122; prism2_usb) and "ifdown wlan0","ifup wlan0" don't work. any idea?
[01:31] <Ro1> anyone use powertweak? how do i get it to run?
[01:31] <crashzor> BSoDirl, cd /etc/ then find -name rc.local usefull we can search are systems ;)
[01:31] <talon218> can anyone help me out with the screen res??
[01:32] <tanlaan> dammit that | didnt work
[01:32] <elie> warbo that didnt helped any other ideas>
[01:32] <crashzor> crimsun, realy never know dat woud same me creating a lot of file then ;)
[01:32] <Ro1> anyone use powertweak? how do i get it to run?
[01:32] <BSoDirl> crashzor,  nothin
[01:32] <smax> crimsun I have 2 Ubuntu on one hard drive first is not this system
[01:32] <cartesian1984> talon218: What's your graphics card/supported resolution etc?
[01:32] <crimsun> smax: do you mean you have two different Ubuntu installations on two different root partitions?
[01:32] <Warbo> styles: Ubuntu lets users in the "admin" group run system admin stuff with "sudo commandname". If you accidentaly removed yourself from admin, or deleted all of the admin users, then that command will add the user "usernametobecomeadmin" back into the admin group, so they canonce again do administrator stuff
[01:32] <hyphenated> ubotu: tell talon218 about resolution
[01:32] <BSoDirl> surely the system will read rc.local if i create it though right?
[01:32] <smax> crimsun yes
[01:32] <tanlaan> how can i run a shell script in a launcher?
[01:32] <crashzor> crimsun, were is rc.local hiding today ?
[01:32] <BSoDirl> tanlaan, sudo <script>
[01:32] <PMantis> my laptop is really slow, unless I wiggle the mouse or tap a key on the keyboard. Gnome animation, Ekiga SIP call, Flash, etc. All is slow/choppy unless I wiggle the mouse. Ideas?
[01:32] <Ro1> !resolution talkon218
[01:33] <ubotu> I know nothing about resolution talkon218
[01:33] <crimsun> crashzor: /etc/rc.local in Dapper.
[01:33] <styles> i just want root to do admin stuff, and users to do users stuff
[01:33] <BSoDirl> oh wait, gksudo <script>
[01:33] <Ro1> anyone use powertweak? how do i get it to run?
[01:33] <Warbo> tanlaan: Make a launcher which has the full path to the script in the "command" box
[01:33] <viper550> I see Gimmie has some python dependencies
[01:33] <crashzor> crimsun, there is no file there ;)
[01:33] <crimsun> BSoDirl: then use /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh
[01:33] <XVampireX> viper550, gimmie is written in python
[01:33] <talon218> hello??
[01:33] <cartesian1984> PMantis: ok, there are a few things that could be.
[01:33] <BSoDirl> AHH ty brb
[01:33] <smax> crimsun and newer kernel is on another installation
[01:33] <dli> tanlaan, type in filename in gnome-session-properties , make sure you type in full path also
[01:33] <Dapallo> hey crimsun, its not giving me that error anymore, but it wont record anything now
[01:33] <cartesian1984> PMantis: Hrm....let me think...
[01:33] <cartesian1984> PMantis: How's your graphics card supported?
[01:34] <viper550> ISN'T IT IRONIC! I forget, did Ubuntu come with Python packahes?
[01:34] <crimsun> smax: those two kernels, according to the paste you showed me, are in the same /
[01:34] <tanlaan> dli: where do i access gnome-session-properties?
[01:34] <KuLover> What does it mean when I try to sudo and it says that sudoers is in 0660 and should be in 0440?
[01:34] <PMantis> cartesian1984, Where do I start? heh. I went from Breezy to Dapper beta, to full dapper. Somewhere alone the line, is started acting up.
[01:34] <tanlaan> dli: in the session thing i couldnt access it
[01:34] <elie> how 2 get wine?
[01:34] <crimsun> Dapallo: make sure you've unmuted the 'Capture' element and set it to a non-zero level
[01:34] <viper550> sudo apt-get install wine
[01:34] <uXp> !wine
[01:34] <Ro1> anyone use powertweak? how do i get it to run?
[01:34] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[01:34] <dli> tanlaan, type in a terminal: gnome-session-properties
[01:34] <Ro1> anyone use powertweak? how do i get it to run?
[01:34] <Warbo> elie: In synaptic
[01:34] <crimsun> Dapallo: also you need to select which element to actually record
[01:34] <BSoDirl> viper550: took me almost 3 hrs to dl wine :)
[01:34] <uXp> can i use a windows desktop to acces ubuntu through vnc?
[01:34] <BSoDirl> with the fonts and all..
[01:35] <crimsun> Dapallo: you should be able to do all that via the mixer applet
[01:35] <viper550> Took me 3 minutes on Yum
[01:35] <Ro1> uxp: i suppose so
[01:35] <BSoDirl> you can BET I backed wine up on my usb stick
[01:35] <tanlaan> dli: ok
[01:35] <Dapallo> in Audacity?
[01:35] <jrib> uXp: yes
[01:35] <Ro1> anyone use powertweak? how do i get it to run?
[01:35] <crimsun> Dapallo: in gnome.
[01:35] <cartesian1984> PMantis: Well, try doing glxgears -printfps, and see if its the video card. Also, you might be the victim of the gam_server memory leak. Do killall gam_server to resolve that.
[01:35] <smax> crimsun just a moment i reboot and check
[01:35] <XVampireX> Hi, I don't know if it's a problem with ubuntu sound or with VisualBoyAdvance, but whenever I try to play a rom (any rom), the game runs usually fine (Although in smaller screen it runs faster than needed), but the sound is not working very well.
[01:35] <crimsun> Dapallo: the volume control
[01:35] <Dapallo> okay.
[01:35] <crashzor> uXp, if you install a vnc server probley yes
[01:35] <BSoDirl> erm, I live in a very safe rural neighborhood once I get satellite I'll be set :D
[01:35] <tanlaan> dli: and i just add it to the startup programs?
[01:35] <Dapallo> i have capture unmuted
[01:35] <uXp> anyone here that can help me install VNC
[01:35] <n0ctuRnaL-fieNd> is there a gui app i can use to test the cpu overclock stability ???
[01:35] <uXp> i tried the howtis, don't work
[01:35] <AJR1> hey all
[01:35] <BSoDirl> oh btw yall, I did the dri.freedesktop crap and i still dont have 3d accel on my s3 prosavage8
[01:35] <BSoDirl> :|
[01:35] <crashzor> uXp, apt-cache search vnc-server or sameting like ;)
[01:35] <PacketScan> uXp, i'm not sure what you woudl need help with..   i'm always just installed and used it. not much configuration.
[01:35] <Ro1> anyone use powertweak? how do i get it to run?
[01:35] <PMantis> cartesian1984, lspci one liner: VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[01:36] <AJR1> im living dangerously and installing ubuntu as my main OS :/ god help me
[01:36] <PacketScan> uXp, have you installed the packages needed?
[01:36] <uXp> wich
[01:36] <tanlaan> dli: because last time i tried it when i restarted it was automatically deleted :(
[01:36] <BSoDirl> all the files installed fine, just "no" DRI whatsoever.
[01:36] <pppoe_dude> uXp, can you be more specific?
[01:36] <BSoDirl> AJR1: I've booted into windows ONCE in 2 weeks.
[01:36] <viper550> I think Gimmie might be a perfect match for Ubuntu
[01:36] <Warbo> elie: If you want to do the Nemo thing I said then you may want to change the owner and group of the files in the fake windows directory that WINE creates, then you can use ls -l | grep yourusername to find out which files Nemo installed
[01:36] <AJR1> BSoDirl: really? enjoying ubuntu that much
[01:36] <uXp> Im trying to find out if i can acces my ubuntu from my dads laptop wich is windows
[01:36] <tanlaan> dli"ahh well ill try it anyways
[01:36] <XVampireX> viper550, indeed, gimmie is very good
[01:36] <BSoDirl> well, aside from a few quirks.
[01:36] <BSoDirl> it kinda likes my hw
[01:36] <cartesian1984> PMantis: All right...my xserver is broken ATM. I would check to be sure you have direct rendering first.
[01:36] <pppoe_dude> uXp, you can
[01:36] <XVampireX> I don't use it, I think it needs some concept rethinking, but it's good
[01:36] <BSoDirl> putty :)
[01:36] <uXp> ok
[01:37] <elie> k thnx
[01:37] <AJR1> BSoDirl: what you think of gaming on it?
[01:37] <stevekl> Is there a way to display CPU temperature in the notification area in gnome?
[01:37] <crashzor> uXp, just setup a vnc server and install vnc client on you'de day's laptop
[01:37] <viper550> I just can't install it because it requires a CVS version of "gnome-python-extras"
[01:37] <BSoDirl> there's a 2d directx MMORPG I run with wine and I want my DRI to work.
[01:37] <uXp> Can someone help me install the server? The howtos don't do much =[
[01:37] <WOLFdude> hey is ubuntu good?
[01:37] <cartesian1984> PMantis: normally I would google around for a intel Direct rendering guide.
[01:37] <BSoDirl> it works on puppy, im sure it can work in ubuntu somehow..
[01:37] <viper550> But it does look like a perfect match for Ubuntu, may be very useful!
[01:37] <uXp> WOLFdude:  yea, depends what yoiur looking for
[01:37] <AJR1> BSoDirl: nice one
[01:37] <AJR1> BSoDirl: im waiting to see what damage ive done to these partitions :P
[01:37] <pppoe_dude> uXp, run: vnc-server -geometry 800x600 -depth 16
[01:37] <Dial_tone> stevekl, probably not. try gdesklets
[01:37] <WOLFdude> i need to host websites
[01:37] <pppoe_dude> uXp, and replace your res.
[01:37] <AJR1> BSoDirl: do you know if i can easily re allocate all these stupid partitions ive created
[01:38] <elie> i get :
[01:38] <elie> Cannot open display "default display"
[01:38] <BSoDirl> I did the recommended dri.freedesktop.org installs on ubuntuforums.org, everything seems to have installed fine
[01:38] <elie> ./ssam_lnx: error while loading shared libraries: libogg.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[01:38] <elie> ERROR: ld.so: object './libvorbis.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.
[01:38] <elie> Cannot open display "default display"
[01:38] <WOLFdude> uxp: ?
[01:38] <Dapallo> how do i get audacity to record from my mic
[01:38] <stevekl> WOLFdude, wow that's so much information
[01:38] <pppoe_dude> uXp, it will ask for a password and give you  a link to connect to
[01:38] <PMantis> cartesian1984, ok: 3925 frames in 5.0 seconds = 784.890 FPS
[01:38] <BSoDirl> AJR1: hope so *crosses fingers*
[01:38] <XVampireX> Hi, I don't know if it's a problem with ubuntu sound or with VisualBoyAdvance, but whenever I try to play a rom (any rom), the game runs usually fine (Although in smaller screen it runs faster than needed), but the sound is not working very well.
[01:38] <PMantis> cartesian1984, without wiggling the mouse
[01:38] <PacketScan> uXp, open a console as root.
[01:38] <WOLFdude> i need to host websites
[01:38] <edu> smb client doesn't work... it was working a few hours ago
[01:38] <BSoDirl> but xdriinfo says "no direct rendering available" which total BS
[01:38] <cartesian1984> PMantis: Yeah, can't be the video card.
[01:38] <uXp> PacketScan:  ok now
[01:38] <AJR1> BSoDirl: crosses everything that can be crossed
[01:38] <AJR1> :P
[01:38] <pppoe_dude> PacketScan, uXp don't do vnc as root...
[01:38] <PacketScan> uXp, then "apt-get install vncserver"

[01:38] <PMantis> gam_server: no process killed
[01:38] <AJR1> guys do you know if its easy to put these partitions ive stupidly created back using fdisk or something?
[01:39] <WOLFdude> dtevekl: what?
[01:39] <cartesian1984> PMantis: oh well...
[01:39] <BSoDirl> cfdisk :)
[01:39] <PMantis> cartesian1984, Ubuntu default GDM/Gnome
[01:39] <pppoe_dude> crashzor, you can!
[01:39] <PacketScan> uXp, as pppoe said you never connect with vnc as root..  always a normal user account.
[01:39] <uXp> PacketScan:  ok done
[01:39] <AJR1> BSoDirl: cfdisk?
[01:39] <cartesian1984> PMantis: ok, run gnome-system-monitor

[01:42] <Ro1> anyone know a good overclocking program for ubuntu
[01:42] <Warbo> Ro1: I just used my BIOS
[01:42] <Dapallo> Warbo: i did.  that got rid of the error, but, It still wont record
[01:42] <PMantis> cartesian1984, And it's full blash right now.. @77% CPU, and I only have XChat and gnome-system-monitor open
[01:42] <Ro1> my BIOS suck
[01:42] <uXp> PacketScan:  so many ips, don't know ich
[01:42] <smax> crimsun it boot's from backup file
[01:42] <Terminus> Warbo: i'm guessing you didn't use screen. can't you kill it and start it under screen? then you can terminate X. :)
[01:42] <cartesian1984> PMantis: I don't know....that definitely shouldn't be that high...
[01:42] <Warbo> Dapallo: Sorry, my microphone is crappy so I have never bothered trying
[01:43] <uXp> PacketScan:  is that the internet address?
[01:43] <edu> smb client doesn't work... it was working a few hours ago
[01:43] <Warbo> Terminus: It is a compression program which has been running for a while and has a while to go
[01:43] <Warbo> Terminus: Would ctrl-z stuff help?
[01:43] <pppoe_dude> uXp, www.whatismyip.com
[01:43] <crimsun> smax: ok, well, do whatever you need to do to boot 2.6.15-25-286
[01:43] <PacketScan> uXp, could be.. or could be your internal network address.
[01:43] <Flashq009> anyone know of a very good and up to date fully packed security tools kit for linux/ubuntu?
[01:43] <uXp> ok ill keep the IP in mind
[01:44] <eugman> You know when the zoom on the screen is too big for the monitor it will let you scroll around the screen by moving the mouse near the edge? How can I disab;e that?
[01:44] <uXp> im going to my dads now, i will be back in 30 mins
[01:44] <uXp> PacketScan:  do i need to open any ports?
[01:44] <Warbo> eugman: You can only enable one resolution in xorg.conf
[01:44] <Terminus> Warbo: i don't even know what ctrl-z is... the way i see it, you have to choices. either wait for it to finish and then kill X, or restart it under screen and then kill X.
[01:44] <smax> crimsun but in menu.lst~ there are no such kernel
[01:44] <AJR1> ok lol im booting into ubu from my hd master lol this could be messy :( can anyone explain how the hell i use ndiswrapper
[01:44] <cartesian1984> PMantis: I hate to say this...but have you considered doing a clean install of dapper?
[01:44] <Terminus> s/to/two/
[01:44] <PacketScan> uXp, that's what i was trying to gander but you are evading my questions.
[01:44] <PacketScan> brb
[01:44] <PMantis> cartesian1984, I'm tempted to reinstall the whole thing... but that *shouldn't* be necessary
[01:44] <PMantis> LOL
[01:44] <cartesian1984> Yeah...
[01:44] <uXp> PacketScan:  too many people talking to me sry
[01:44] <crimsun> smax: so cp menu.lst menu.lst~
[01:45] <uXp> PacketScan:  what you need
[01:45] <PMantis> cartesian1984, I think I'll try a live CD first... see how the CPU acts then.
[01:45] <cartesian1984> PMantis: good idea.
[01:45] <crimsun> smax: like I said, you know your system better than I do, so just make it boot 2.6.15-25-386
[01:45] <PMantis> But... I have lots of special configs here, and I don't want to loose that.
[01:45] <Dapallo> does anyone know why audacity wont record from my mic ???
[01:45] <Warbo> Terminus: I think pressing ctrl-z then typing "bg" will detach it from the terminal, like putting an & at the end, but I have had problems with &s before (programs closing when I close the terminal)
[01:45] <uXp> i did  the whatismyip and got an IP adress
[01:45] <gavagai> I have cupsys running as a service.  There is no firewall on the box.  I can ping the box from windows.  But i can't add my printer?  How do I add my ubuntu printer in windows?
[01:45] <PMantis> cartesian1984, Like encryption of some dirs...
[01:45] <eugman> Warbo, When I try to play a certain game though wine it'l enlarge the screen so the small size game looks fullscreen. The problem is i can mouse out of it. How do I stop that?
[01:45] <cartesian1984> PMantis: With what software? Truecrypt?
[01:46] <Terminus> Warbo: yeah... coz the process spawns as a child.
[01:46] <uXp> PacketScan:  dude??
[01:46] <PMantis> cartesian1984, If I was to reinstall, I'd want to create a special initrd that grabs a key from an SD card, and decrypts the HD before boot.
[01:46] <lostar4545> what program do i use to extrack  ace files
[01:46] <PMantis> cartesian1984, Heh, no EncFS (FUSE)
[01:46] <Kyral> unace!
[01:46] <Terminus> Warbo: maybe there's a way to make it an orphan. =D
[01:47] <pppoe_dude> PacketScan, go to #ubuntu-classroom
[01:47] <Warbo> eugman: That is nothing to do with ctrl-alt-+ stuff (in fact, ctrl-alt-+ and ctrl-alt-- helps recover from it). It is a problem with some fullscreen things, which are actually running in a window but pretend to be fullscreen by zooming into a window (I find it mostly happens with dodgy games which crash X a lot)
[01:47] <smax> crimsun Can I boot now from lilo? I don't like grub i don't understand it
[01:47] <uXp> pppoe_dude:  y0
[01:47] <uXp> pppoe_dude:  what ports do i need open?
[01:47] <pppoe_dude> uXp, /join #ubuntu-classroom
[01:47] <uXp> for what
[01:47] <uXp> im trying ot do this ina hurry
[01:47] <uXp> before i go
[01:48] <pppoe_dude> uXp, this is how you do it in a hurry.. no noise there
[01:48] <cartesian1984> PMantis: Ah...I never was able to get that working. I'm about to reinstall myself, actually, as soon as I can get a CD. Messed up the xserver and I don't remember what I did exactly.
[01:48] <Warbo> Terminus: Well it says 12000 seconds remaining, which is about 3 hours I think
[01:48] <eugman> Warbo, well is there anything which can be done about the situation?
[01:48] <pppoe_dude> uXp, i told yo u how like 20 times
[01:48] <PMantis> cartesian1984, BBL... putting kids to bed now...
[01:48] <PacketScan> uXp, goto #ubuntu-classroom
[01:48] <Warbo> eugman: Nothing that I can think of, or else I would be running Gish right now
[01:48] <cartesian1984> PMantis: All right.
[01:48] <crimsun> smax: if you install (re)lilo and remove grub, sure
[01:48] <PMantis> cartesian1984, Thanks for trying to help.
[01:48] <AJR1> ok can anybody tell me where i find ndiswrapper inside of ubuntu?
[01:48] <cartesian1984> PMantis: Sorry I couldn't do more.
[01:48] <Terminus> Warbo: what are you compressing? don't tell me your ubuntu installation... from my previous experience, it's not worth the cpu cycles to compress the entire damn thing.
[01:49] <Warbo> Terminus: I'm making (another) LiveCD
[01:49] <bennyboy> AJR1, what are you tryin to do
[01:49] <Terminus> Warbo: oh... go to the coffee shop and come back in 3 hours. =D
[01:49] <AJR1> bennyboy: get my wireless usb adapter to work
[01:49] <Warbo> Terminus: But I have learnt to stay away from 7zip this time :)
[01:49] <bennyboy> sudo apt-get install ndisgtk
[01:50] <AJR1> bennyboy: ok done :)
[01:50] <Warbo> Terminus: Cool, know any coffe shops open at 1am? Maybe I'll just go to bed............ or probably not
[01:50] <AJR1> bennyboy: now what :P
[01:50] <bennyboy> ndisgtk
[01:50] <bennyboy> then select your driver
[01:50] <Terminus> Warbo: one time i was cloning drives and i thought bzip2 would let me save space. turns out it took just the same space as a tar archive. >_<
[01:50] <AJR1> bennyboy: ok it says "could not find  package"
[01:50] <AJR1> bennyboy: im on a laptop here and im on another machine with ubuntu that doesnt have wifi setup inside of ubuntu yet

[01:52] <Warbo> Terminus: I tried to compare file sizes between compressors once, but couldn't be bothered to wait for 7zip's maximum compression (only about a 2MB file to be compressed). Oh well, I suppose I can just start again but with lower settings and hope it fits on the disc
[01:52] <AJR1> bennyboy any idea
[01:52] <AJR1> ?
[01:52] <edu> smb client doesn't work... it was working a few hours ago
[01:52] <elie> iany1 kan help with this---->http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16720
[01:52] <__mikem> Why do people like that exist
[01:52] <bennyboy> you have to download the package http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/download.pl?arch=all&file=pool%2Funiverse%2Fn%2Fndisgtk%2Fndisgtk_0.6-0ubuntu1_all.deb&md5sum=820f3a749abd2cb2d097c362103cd07e&arch=all&type=main
[01:52] <AJR1> bennyboy: how do i do that with no net access on ubuntu machine?
[01:52] <__mikem> What does he get out of doing that?
[01:53] <bennyboy> transfer it using a usb key or floppy or somethin
[01:53] <elie> i have 2 dn the package?
[01:53] <AJR1> bennyboy: oh ok
[01:53] <bennyboy> you will also need to download the ndiswrapper package
[01:53] <n0ctuRnaL-fieNd> is there a gui app i can use to test the cpu overclock stability ???
[01:53] <ardchoille> __mikem: mentally sick people exist to balance out the rest of us
[01:53] <elie> bennyboy ru talking 2 me?
[01:53] <bennyboy> sorry that was to AJR1
[01:53] <__mikem> ardchoille so I hear :)
[01:54] <edu> __mikem: what people?
[01:54] <elie> k
[01:54] <Terminus> Warbo: maybe large compression jobs should have a dedicated box. or just pipe it to /dev/null. XD
[01:54] <__mikem> the spammer that was just booted
[01:54] <bennyboy> AJR1, it would be easier if you could hardwire to the internet as apt will automatically resolve depencies
[01:54] <edu> __mikem: uh, I see...
[01:54] <Terminus> s/pipe/redirect/
[01:55] <__mikem> Ill take half horse half man for 800
[01:55] <elie> any1 kan help with this---->http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16720
[01:55] <Warbo> Terminus: Well I am always one for speed, so if you'll excuse me I will start a new X server and connect to it from within a chroot based on a USB1 drive, restart my compression and get on with some vector based animation work. Oh yeah, and I'll stick AmaroK on too :)
[01:56] <edu> smb client doesn't work... it was working a few hours ago
[01:57] <Edvinas> where to find cookies?
[01:57] <SAM_theman> In firefox in ubuntu Dapper Drake is there a way to view foreign languages into english???
[01:57] <eugman> Is it possible to vnc a computer that has someone who can type commands into it but is behind a router without port forwarding set up?
[01:57] <dli> SAM_theman, what do you mean?
[01:57] <XVampireX> Someone help me, please
[01:58] <Edvinas> where to find cookies in firefox?
[01:58] <bennyboy> XVampireX, with what
[01:58] <SAM_theman> Like this site (http://perso.orange.fr/speedtiti/tutoriels.htm)
[01:58] <edu> I have Kubuntu installed... and now I wanna reinstall the whole system but from MY DESKTOP, I don't wanna boot from the CD...
[01:58] <kbrosnan> SAM_theman, there are several extensions that will send the page you are currently looking at to a translation service
[01:58] <XVampireX> Having problems with sound in VisualBoyAdvance
[01:58] <dli> eugman, I got the same question :)
[01:58] <edu> I have Kubuntu installed... and now I wanna reinstall the whole system but from MY DESKTOP, I don't wanna boot from the CD... HOW COULD I DO THAT?
[01:58] <XVampireX> I don't know where to ask :O
[01:58] <kbrosnan> Edvinas, cookies.txt in ~/.mozilla/firefox/
[01:59] <lostar4545> i just downloaded the latest unace from winace website and extracted it but it only  has a file called unace how do i  use it
[01:59] <parker`> I just moved from Fedora distros to Ubuntu and was just wondering what the Ubuntu equiv to yum exists
[01:59] <eugman> Now if only someone had the answer
[01:59] <bennyboy> apt-get
[01:59] <pppoe_dude> lostar4545, try typing unace --help
[01:59] <Cyorxamp> edu - how can you re-install what is currently in use? - think about it
[01:59] <parker`> cool thanks
[01:59] <Edvinas> kbrooks, how to view the source of that like in windows?
[01:59] <pppoe_dude> eugman, not without port forwarding
[02:00] <edu> Cyorxamp: ok, I guess it is not possible
[02:00] <kbrosnan> Edvinas, if you want to remove individual cookies you should use edit -> preferences -> privacy -> cookies -> view cookies
[02:00] <bennyboy> parker`, you might want to check out http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper
[02:00] <pppoe_dude> eugman, or at least not in any easy way... you might be able to tunnel ssh or somethn
[02:00] <eugman> pppoe_dude, darn. I was hoping there might be a way if the vnc'd computer were to initiate it.
[02:00] <pppoe_dude> eugman, but doubtful
[02:00] <parker`> bennyboy: thanks
[02:01] <edu> Cyorxamp: but I heard that some people restore a whole system from a backup while the OS is running...
[02:02] <gavagai> CUPS web interface is prompting me for a user/pass, but it won't accept mine.  It seems to want real root or something.  What's up with cups web interface on ubuntu?
[02:02] <iceyes> is there any newer kernel than breezy?
[02:02] <Edvinas> kbrooks, i cant edit them
[02:02] <elie> any1 kan help with this---->http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16720
[02:03] <iceyes> !kernel
[02:03] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux'). You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[02:03] <eugman> So can ssh work without port forwarding?
[02:03] <AJR1> how do i get my other drives working under ubuntu
[02:03] <kbrosnan> Edvinas, i am kbrosnan, just double click on the file
[02:03] <AJR1> says could not execute pmount or something
[02:03] <Dapallo> anyone know how to get the sound to play from Firefox?
[02:03] <Miles> Anyone know how to actually DISABLE the goddamn motherboard sound card?
[02:03] <Cyorxamp> edu - you may find something that can do that but it can only restore things that are not in use without restarting
[02:03] <NickGarvey> does the live cd have a "toram" option?
[02:04] <Miles> Or make it NOT change the IRQ of it at the same time as the other sound card?
[02:04] <parker`> wow this Dapper guide is amazing, bennyboy
[02:04] <Cyorxamp> edu - if you want to 're-install' then your not keeping anything that currently exists - thus it needs wiping, thus no OS to exist to use to help with the reinstall
[02:04] <Dapallo> anyone?
[02:04] <The_Spider> Question: I'm using 6.06, ISO but it will not boot on my system, It locks up after it detects my 3wire card, is there a way to bypass this autodetect via boot command line?
[02:04] <kbrosnan> Miles, it is likely a bios setting which are changed by hitting a key before the computer starts loading the opreating system
[02:05] <Miles> I DID THAT. REPEATEDLY.
[02:05] <bennyboy> yeah it has alot of good info
[02:05] <iceyes> is there something newer than breezy?
[02:05] <Cyorxamp> iceyes - dapper
[02:05] <__mikem> um yes iceyes
[02:05] <Edvinas> kbrooks, and it doesnt open
[02:05] <riddlebox> what do I need to see php files for apache?
[02:06] <edu> Cyorxamp: ok, look... this is my problem: my CD install crashes always
[02:06] <Miles> I hit F2, went to the sound area. It had 'on' and 'off'. I went to PCI IRQ settings. I tried changing the IRQ of the motherboard sound. It changed the sound card to match the mobo one.
[02:06] <parker`> this guide ought to hold me over for a few hours....
[02:06] <Cyorxamp> edu, then to my knowledge - your fucked
[02:06] <kbrooks> Cyorxamp: language
[02:06] <chris__> how do i manully install the nvidia driver
[02:06] <Dapallo> please, I really need to know how to get my sound to work from Firefox
[02:06] <Miles> Of course, maybe this wouldn't be a problem if Ubuntu would actually LET ME SET A DEFAULT SOUND CARD.
[02:07] <edu> Cyorxamp: I see...
[02:07] <iceyes> !dapper
[02:07] <ubotu> dapper is the 4th and latest release of Ubuntu. Version 6.06 LTS, codename "Dapper Drake"
[02:07] <crimsun> Dapallo: you mean for Flash?
[02:07] <nickrud> edu, have you checked the burn? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto
[02:07] <Dapallo> yeah
[02:07] <Dapallo> pretty much
[02:07] <Cyorxamp> !ubuntu
[02:07] <ubotu> Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuHowCome
[02:07] <crimsun> Dapallo: install 'alsa-oss' from universe, then use ``aoss firefox''
[02:07] <kbrosnan> Edvinas, once again stop autocompleteing the nick if you are going to keep getting it wrong. then just use text editor in the accessories and open that fiel
[02:07] <chris__> how do i manully install the nvidia driver
[02:07] <brizola> Warbo: i think it didnt work....
[02:07] <parker`> this is a general hardware question for you guys: I have a video card with both a VGA and DVI out, and I have an LCD on the DVI and a CRT on the VGA, when I turn my computer on, output defaults to the VGA, even Ubuntu is using the VGA instead of the LCD or both monitors
[02:08] <Dapallo> use 'aoss firefox ' in the command line?
[02:08] <Cyorxamp> !computers
[02:08] <ubotu> I know nothing about computers
[02:08] <crimsun> Dapallo: yes
[02:08] <chris__> how do i manully install the nvidia driver
[02:08] <Edvinas> kbrosnan, can you tell me the place where is it in console (the cookies)
[02:09] <chris__> how do i manully install the nvidia driver

[02:09] <crimsun> smax: update-grub
[02:09] <zanzabuntu> soooo, does the live cd make your windows drive mounted or not?
[02:09] <zanzabuntu> or is there some linux voodoo that must be done?
[02:09] <gnufied> how do i disable startup services in ubuntu dapper? the  program there in admin menu looks quite lame?
[02:10] <chris__> how do i manully install the nvidia driver
[02:10] <kbrosnan> Edvinas, it is in your profile folder ~/.mozilla/firefox/ more detail at http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Folder#Firefox
[02:10] <gnufied> do i have to manually edit the rc.d files?
[02:10] <Dapallo> what do you mean from universe crimsun?
[02:10] <chris__> can somebody please help me ;(
[02:10] <cartesian1984> gnufied: sudo apt-get install rcconf
[02:10] <cartesian1984> gnufied: everything is in there.
[02:10] <Miles> ...
[02:11] <`underOATH> is there a way to downgrade from the new version back to breezey, some of my things dont work in dapper
[02:11] <blacktears> hey everybody whats up
[02:11] <gnufied> cartesian1984: cool
[02:11] <cartesian1984> `underOATH: I think you can replace your sources.list with the breezy one and do a dist-upgrade
[02:11] <chris__> can somebody please help me
[02:11] <cartesian1984> `underOATH: Google for source.list generator
[02:12] <cartesian1984> chris__: check the ubuntu forums, theres a guide there.
[02:12] <`underOATH> cartesian1984. sounds like to much work. i think i'll just reformat and reinstall
[02:12] <`underOATH> lol
[02:12] <chris__> how do i do that
[02:12] <cartesian1984> `underOATH: Nah, after you replace the list, its just sudo apt-get dist-upgrade.
[02:12] <gnufied> cartesian1984: do i really need rsync?does ubuntu uses this for updating the system?
[02:13] <cartesian1984> gnufied: I don't think so.
[02:13] <cartesian1984> gnufied: I think its more for backup.
[02:13] <chris__> how do i manully install the nvidia driver
[02:13] <Dapallo> crimsun: what do you mean by, "install alsa-oss from universe"
[02:14] <crimsun> Dapallo: apt-get install alsa-oss
[02:14] <gnufied> cartesian1984: oh..so i can safely disable that!! how abt Nvidia kernel? i dont think i need that either.Because i dont have nvidia thingy!!
[02:14] <cartesian1984> chris__: search the ubuntu forums. There is a howto there. www.ubuntuforums.com look at the search bar in the upper left, and search nvidia
[02:14] <cartesian1984> gnufied: Yeah, you can disable that too.
[02:15] <cartesian1984> chris__: say...why do you need to manually install it? Are you trying to get some highly graphical thing?
[02:15] <chris__> yeah
[02:16] <cartesian1984> Ah...
[02:16] <Geoffrey2> what is the command to take ownership of a file or folder?

[02:18] <dli> smax, " sudo update-grub "
[02:18] <FatDwarf> i updated my ubuntu kernel and lost usplash. could someone point me in a direction that explains how to get it back? i have searched the ubuntu forums with no success.
[02:18] <smax> crimsun same as was
[02:18] <gavagai> because cups wants a root password and i'm sick of fighting with it
[02:18] <riddlebox> where is the apache conf file?
[02:18] <ardchoille> gavagai: my question is, why do you need it? There really isn't any reason to log in as root.
[02:18] <smax> crimsun in root konsole
[02:18] <gavagai> ardchoille, please setup cups on my computer then
[02:18] <gavagai> because it doesn't care about my mere admin username and password
[02:18] <dli> FatDwarf, maybe, your kernel doesn't support splash, or, you got the kernel options in grub wrong
[02:19] <smax> crimsun it said that find 2.1.15.x kernel and old kernel to but
[02:19] <smax> ups sory
[02:19] <cartesian1984> gavagai: you can just do sudo -i. You become root without having to have a root password.
[02:19] <gavagai> i am not logging in, it is a web interface
[02:19] <tao36> does anyone know how to solve the xfce4 problem with the apps menu?
[02:19] <FatDwarf> grub is ok but im not sure about the kernel. it is from kernel.org, 2,6,17,1
[02:19] <gavagai> CUPS admin interface
[02:19] <BCK14> whats OEM install on alternate CD ?
[02:19] <BCK14> ?
[02:19] <FatDwarf> it goes to the black screen unless i tell grub nosplash
[02:20] <ardchoille> gavagai: you can run any gui app using gksuexec
[02:20] <gavagai> to add a printer i need to give it the root password.  admin group isn't helping, even though cups config file is set to let admin group make changes.  it wants a root username and pass
[02:20] <gavagai> ardchoille, it is not a gui app
[02:20] <cartesian1984> BCK14: OEM is Original Equipment Manufacturer. I think its to customize an installation for particular hardware or something.
[02:20] <smax> crimsun update-grub said that find 2.6.15.x kernel and old 2.6.12 kernel
[02:20] <BCK14> !oem
[02:20] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[02:20] <gavagai> i will try launching the browser as root and going to the web interface but I doubt that is going to make any difference because cups doesn't know whose browser process it is
[02:20] <smax> crimsun but but menu is old!
[02:20] <gavagai> please just tell me how to activate root.
[02:21] <Kyral> !root
[02:21] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:21] <pppoe_dude> gavagai, root wont help with cups
[02:21] <tao36> !xfce4
[02:21] <gavagai> thanks
[02:21] <ubotu> I know nothing about xfce4
[02:21] <crimsun> smax: as in the boot menu is old?
[02:21] <NickGarvey> !xfce
[02:21] <ubotu> I know nothing about xfce
[02:21] <NickGarvey> wow
[02:21] <gavagai> pppoe_dude, what username/pass does its web interface want then?
[02:21] <gavagai> because it doesn't accept my password
[02:21] <crimsun> smax: can you take a digital photo of the grub menu at boot?
[02:21] <pppoe_dude> gavagai, you need a cups account iirc
[02:21] <tao36> the bot knows nothing...
[02:21] <Warbo> Does anyone know where my root window background setting is stored? gnome-setttings-daemon changes my root window back to Ubuntu's brown image
[02:21] <ardchoille> NickGarvey: wow is right. I thought for sure..
[02:22] <tao36> !ubotu
[02:22] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[02:22] <smax> crimsun I can gave you my old backup menu( which i see when reboot)
[02:22] <NickGarvey> !xfce is a lightweight desktop environment for linux, you can get xfce with "apt-get install xubuntu-desktop", or using a branch of ubuntu called xubuntu, join to #xubuntu for more details
[02:23] <Dapallo> damnit, whats the delete command in the terminal
[02:23] <tao36> this all-knowing infobot knows nothing about xfce4..:/
[02:23] <Warbo> rm
[02:23] <Dapallo> aww, thats it
[02:23] <pppoe_dude> Dapallo, be very careful with rm
[02:23] <cartesian1984> gavagai: have you tried gksudo firefox or similar?
[02:23] <Dapallo> oh, i know
[02:23] <Dapallo> i just could remember it
[02:23] <edu> problem, smb://winXP was working perfectly but not any more...
[02:23] <Evaso2> how could i debug an acpi S3 sleep mode that doesn't work fine?
[02:23] <smax> crimsun it's steel old. grub said that find 2 kernels and in menu i have onlu 1
[02:23] <Warbo> I was htinking of writing a script which moves stuff to the wastebin instead of deleting it, just as a test for my scripting knowledge
[02:24] <Dapallo> okay, how do i delete a directory
[02:24] <tao36> NickGarvey been there..no one helped..
[02:24] <Warbo> Dapallo: rm -r
[02:24] <pppoe_dude> Dapallo, rmdir
[02:24] <NickGarvey> tao36: it is a channel though right?
[02:24] <Dapallo> which one
[02:24] <NickGarvey> yes
[02:24] <Dapallo> lol
[02:24] <tao36> right!
[02:24] <kb3mkd> why do two of my ubuntu installations ask me to upgrade to drake, but the 3rd doesn't?
[02:24] <pppoe_dude> Dapallo, if you want to delete the contents of the directory, rm -R <dir name> but be very careful
[02:24] <__mikem> rm -r is dangerous, don't use it if at all posible, and if you must do so with caution
[02:24] <edu> problem, smb://winXP was working perfectly but not now
[02:25] <Dapallo> i want to delete an entire directory, and folder
[02:25] <Warbo> Dapallo: rmdir will remove an empty directory, rm -r will go through the directory removing everything in it, then the directory itself
[02:25] <Dapallo> its contents, and the folder
[02:25] <Dapallo> ok
[02:25] <smax> crimsun i don't have cable to send you photo
[02:25] <tao36> NickGarvey well you've been there..
[02:25] <tao36> :)
[02:25] <cartesian1984> edu: Try using a command line smb client and see if it gives you an error.
[02:25] <smax> crimsun but menu doesn't changed
[02:26] <Dapallo> okay, now i want to move  different folder over to this directory, how do i do that
[02:26] <trippyskippy> hey guys, is there any way that being
[02:26] <alpha9> wow its hard to find this channel
[02:26] <alpha9> can someone assist me with an install?
[02:26] <kb3mkd> why do two of my ubuntu installations ask me to upgrade to drake, but the 3rd doesn't?
[02:26] <Kyral> Dapallo: mv
[02:26] <tao36> NickGarvey the infobot is the same in both channel...s
[02:26] <tao36> :(
[02:26] <NickGarvey> tao36: yup
[02:27] <jackal`inst> hi (:
[02:27] <elknof1> hi everybody, can someone tellme how to restart Xserver??
[02:27] <trippyskippy> i get errors when trying to reload my repositories in synaptic, is there any chance that i need to port forward anything?
[02:27] <edu> cartesian1984: good idea, how?
[02:27] <__mikem> elknof1 hit control alt backspace
[02:27] <alpha9> can someone tell me how to install this operating system, i have the cd....
[02:27] <elknof1> thanks
[02:27] <cartesian1984> edu: I don't know of any, let me ask some other friends.
[02:27] <trippyskippy> elknof1,  or type "/etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[02:27] <__mikem> alpha9 what specificly do you need help with
[02:28] <alpha9> im new to linux
[02:28] <kb3mkd> why do two of my ubuntu installations ask me to upgrade to drake, but the 3rd doesn't?
[02:28] <smax> crimsun what should I do? to change boot menu
[02:28] <alpha9> and there is no install guide
[02:28] <__mikem> the instalation should be prety streight forward
[02:28] <edu> cartesian1984: thanks a lot
[02:28] <cartesian1984> edu: do sudo apt-get install smbclient
[02:28] <cartesian1984> edu: No problem.
[02:28] <alpha9> windows doesnt recognize it and i cannot boot from the cd
[02:28] <crimsun> smax: I'm very busy atm. Keep in mind you can always just edit the kernels and initrds chosen.
[02:28] <__mikem> brb
[02:29] <crimsun> smax: as in with the 'e' keypress
[02:29] <edu> cartesian1984: I have already installed... I can run smbclient now
[02:29] <trippyskippy> alpha9, i would guess you have a bad cd/drive then
[02:29] <Patrick_> has anyone ever experienced a purplish outline on windows and boarders in XGL?
[02:29] <Patrick_> lo
[02:29] <Patrick_> lol
[02:29] <Patrick_> almost like purple shadows I should say...
[02:29] <trippyskippy> Patrick_, its the drop shadow effect
[02:29] <cartesian1984> alpha9: there is an install guide, if you google around for ubuntu installation screenshots you should find one.
[02:29] <alpha9> should it boot from the cd on startup?
[02:29] <cartesian1984> edu: all right, try accessing that share, then.
[02:29] <pppoe_dude> alpha9, google: ubuntu osdir
[02:29] <Patrick_> trippyskippy how do I fix ti?
[02:30] <trippyskippy> Patrick_, what compiz packages are you using? do you have gsetcompiz?
[02:30] <smax> crimsun OK thankyou very muck for good advice's
[02:30] <ardchoille> does xfce use less resources than gnome? Is it faster?
[02:30] <smax> *much
[02:30] <trippyskippy> Patrick_,  try doing "gset-compiz" from a terminal, it should allow you to play with your drop shadow settings
[02:30] <NickGarvey> ardchoille: oh yes it is
[02:30] <cartesian1984> ardchoille: Yeah.
[02:31] <Patrick_> trippyskippy how would one find out? my desktop isatn exactly useable... lol. like, I have to resize the windows to get it to render correctly
[02:31] <cartesian1984> ardchoille: very much so. You can run it in half the RAM.
[02:31] <Patrick_> but, when I move the windows its fully animated and smooth
[02:31] <Dapallo> okay, I have to versions of Firefox on here, and when I type in firefox in the terminal, it loads the one i dont want it too, how can i change that
[02:31] <trippyskippy> Patrick_, sounds like it isnt the drop shadow then, if its the effect then the shadows should only be small
[02:31] <ardchoille> W00T! I'm gonna try xfce :)
[02:32] <alpha9> im finding mostly news articles
[02:32] <zanzabuntu> hi, i copied some file in ubuntu to my jumpdrive, and when i move the jumpdrive to a windows box, the files arent there
[02:32] <cartesian1984> Dapallo: symlink the firefox binary to /home/username/firefox.
[02:32] <zanzabuntu> am I missing something obvious here?
[02:32] <alpha9> ah yes ive found something
[02:32] <Dapallo> do what cartesian1984?
[02:33] <alpha9> its just screenshots
[02:33] <pppoe_dude> zanzabuntu, what filesystem do you have for the jumpdrive?
[02:33] <zanzabuntu> no freaking clue
[02:33] <zanzabuntu> fat 16 or 32
[02:33] <zanzabuntu> most liekly
[02:33] <zanzabuntu> and the files were from an ntfs hard drive
[02:33] <ardchoille> Dapallo: launch the version of firefox you want to use but use the path in the launch:  /path/to/desired/firefox
[02:33] <cartesian1984> Dapallo: I believe its ln -s /path/to/firefox/binary ~/firefox
[02:33] <Dapallo> ok
[02:34] <t4ken> if you go to a launcher lets say a firefox launcher and you look under properties and you select launcher properties what does the %u mean?
[02:34] <cartesian1984> Dapallo: Where ~ is the home dir.
[02:34] <edu> cartesian1984: it connects OK
[02:34] <t4ken> after firefox
[02:34] <Patrick_> trippyskippy, the drop shadow effect is small, its just purple for some odd reason.. and as I said before, the windows aren't rendering correctly, I can't see the contents or they don't update without my resizing the window...
[02:34] <cartesian1984> edu: Ok....odd.....maybe its a problem with the browser then?
[02:34] <zanzabuntu> hell, just getting the hard drive accesible was an excercise, i used umask=022 should i use something else?
[02:34] <cartesian1984> edu: Or maybe the hostname was changed
[02:34] <elie> damn i keep getting :
[02:34] <elie> Cannot open display "default display"
[02:34] <elie> ./ssam_lnx: error while loading shared libraries: libogg.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[02:35] <tulga> I need restart usb ports every 4 hours. is it possible?
[02:35] <edu> cartesian1984: I know what's the problem now: NETBIOS hostname
[02:35] <cartesian1984> Ah...
[02:35] <Dapallo> okay, this is really starting to piss me off
[02:35] <Dapallo> i have to versions and i only want the updated version
[02:35] <Dapallo> i want to get rid of the other one
[02:36] <Dapallo> expect i dont know which one is which
[02:36] <Dapallo> in the directorys
[02:36] <zanzabuntu> hmmmmm, no ideas?
[02:36] <Cyorxamp> !computers
[02:36] <cartesian1984> Dapallo: were they installed with synaptic/dpkg?
[02:36] <ubotu> I know nothing about computers
[02:36] <elie> damn i keep getting :

[02:36] <pppoe_dude> ubotu tell elie about pastebin
[02:36] <Dapallo> no, one of them, the updated one, I downloaded my self from the website
[02:37] <elie> k
[02:37] <edu> cartesian1984: smbclient //server/shared DOES NOT WORK, but smbclient //<IP_ADDRESS>/shared works OK
[02:37] <cartesian1984> Dapallo: Are you running dapper or breezy?
[02:37] <Dapallo> ehh
[02:37] <cartesian1984> edu: oh, all right.
[02:37] <Patrick_> trippyskippy, the drop shadow effect is small, its just purple for some odd reason.. and as I said before, the windows aren't rendering correctly, I can't see the contents or they don't update without my resizing the window...
[02:37] <Dapallo> bout that
[02:37] <Dapallo> hoery (sp)
[02:37] <dgl> does anyone know it dapper server does run at old computers?
[02:37] <trippyskippy> Patrick_, you need to run "gset-compiz" from a terminal
[02:37] <cartesian1984> dgl: yup.
[02:38] <cartesian1984> dgl: As little as a pentium I with 32MBs of RAM.
[02:38] <Dapallo> can you still help?
[02:38] <edu> cartesian1984: thanks for your help
[02:38] <cartesian1984> dgl: Though you'll be quite cramped.
[02:38] <cartesian1984> Dapallo: yeah.
[02:38] <cartesian1984> edu: no problem
[02:38] <Dapallo> ok
[02:38] <dgl> cartesian1984, I ve try a lot, but it only work with dapper alternate
[02:38] <cartesian1984> Dapallo: ok, what are the firefox versions?
[02:39] <Timir> mikere, You there?
[02:39] <Dapallo> one sec, let me see
[02:39] <alpha9> ok im sure ive got a corrupt live cd install.............
[02:39] <Remo_A> hi all, I'd like to try out xgl, but the tutorial http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Baustelle/Xgl?highlight=%28%5EBaustelle/.%2A%29 here is only for gnome, how can I adopt that using kubuntu (thus kde)?
[02:39] <pppoe_dude> alpha9, did u md5sum your iso image?
[02:39] <mikere> Timir: hey =)
[02:39] <cartesian1984> dgl: Thats all right, the normal dapper is mainly intended for newish desktops anyway.
[02:39] <Timir> mikere, I found the bug
[02:39] <mikere> Timir: oh?  What was it?
[02:39] <Timir> mikere, It has a special Linux and Mac nwn.ini
[02:39] <Dapallo> cartesian1984: the one i want to keep is <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:39] <dgl> cartesian1984, ow... It should be write at download page! I spend 1 day to discover that
[02:40] <kb3mkd> why do two of my ubuntu installations ask me to upgrade to drake, but the 3rd doesn't?
[02:40] <Timir> mikere, It was in there but it asked to override and I thought "Probably shouldn't", redid it, bam, worked, one problemo though
[02:40] <Remo_A> alpha9: I had wrong md5sums on 2 of 3 mirrored files!
[02:40] <mikere> Timir: ah - what problem still?
[02:40] <cartesian1984> Dapallo: ok, <IP_ADDRESS> is updated in the repos, so you should be able to delete the one you downloaded.
[02:40] <Timir> mikere, It won't go out to the net
[02:40] <Patrick_> trippyskippy, what good will that do, really?
[02:40] <JadeRobbins> i hate linux now
[02:40] <JadeRobbins> i HATE it
[02:40] <jackal`inst> ehm..i want to set up my system with xubuntu and i am now at the point where i am asked to partition the root / there are many filesystems - what is your recommendation? ext2/3 reiserfs? have no idea :-/ help :-)
[02:40] <mikere> Timir: firewalled?
[02:40] <Timir> mikere, Like it's not being broadcasted
[02:40] <Patrick_> trippyskippy, the settings in that aren't really screwed up, it seems to be deeper now.
[02:40] <edu> cartesian1984: do you know how the hostname ATLAS can be associated with its IP?
[02:41] <Dapallo> okay, I moved that one to the /etc directory
[02:41] <Timir> mikere, Could a router firewall do it?
[02:41] <cartesian1984> edu: sorry...dunno.
[02:41] <pppoe_dude> jackal`inst, ext3 should do
[02:41] <mikere> Timir: yes
[02:41] <Ademan> anyone here used gparted to partition raid drives?
[02:41] <trippyskippy> Patrick_, it will let you change the purple colour, you could also try changing the refresh rate and see if it helps
[02:41] <Timir> mikere, Or does Mandrake 10.1 come with a firewall? I have the ports forwarded but they're being blocked..
[02:41] <JadeRobbins> jackal dont' do ext3
[02:41] <jackal`inst> pppoe_dude, k thx *g*
[02:41] <Dapallo> where is the pre-installed one at?
[02:41] <edu> cartesian1984: ok, it's all right
[02:41] <jackal`inst> dont oO
[02:41] <JadeRobbins> there are better tools to diagnose ext2 problems
[02:41] <JadeRobbins> like recover
[02:41] <cartesian1984> JadeRobbins: sorry it didn't work out for you. I'd be happy to help with anything if its possible.
[02:41] <JadeRobbins> i'm finding out right now
[02:41] <JadeRobbins> hehe
[02:41] <JadeRobbins> well i did a fsck
[02:41] <mikere> Timir: easy to check the mandrake settings - just iptables -L
[02:41] <JadeRobbins> and as to be expected deleted it
[02:41] <Cyorxamp> !raid
[02:41] <ubotu> Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[02:42] <Cyorxamp> !sata
[02:42] <jackal`inst> JadeRobbins, so if i want to recover deleted files ext2 is the better choice?
[02:42] <ubotu> I know nothing about sata
[02:42] <Timir> mikere, what do you mean?
[02:42] <t4ken> has anyone hear ever made a custom launcher
[02:42] <nbjayme> please help... i have a problem printing to win2k server from ubuntu...i can see my job at the Win2k printing queue but somehow it does not go to the printer...?
[02:42] <Cyorxamp> !howtohavesex
[02:42] <ubotu> I know nothing about howtohavesex
[02:42] <JadeRobbins> so now i'm using some stupid windows program to try and undelete problems
[02:42] <pppoe_dude> !botabuse
[02:42] <ubotu> Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots
[02:42] <kb3mkd> how do i do an automatic upgrade without downloading and burning a cd
[02:42] <JadeRobbins> jackal`inst: dont listen to me, i'm disgruntled :D
[02:42] <elie> any 1 can hel with this plz------>http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16727
[02:42] <jackal`inst> k oO
[02:42] <nbjayme> The printer is HPDeskjet3744
[02:42] <Dapallo> cartesian1984: when I go to the gnome menu, and click on it there, it still loads the 1.0.8 version
[02:42] <cartesian1984> jackal`inst: yeah. There isn't much you can do about ext3 if you need to recover files.
[02:42] <mikere> Timir: all linux firewalls are iptables based - can use iptables -L from command line to list the rules
[02:42] <t4ken> !customlaunchers
[02:42] <ubotu> I know nothing about customlaunchers
[02:42] <pppoe_dude> Cyorxamp, ubotu is not google... please
[02:43] <t4ken> !custom launchers
[02:43] <cartesian1984> Dapallo: do you have breezy or dapper?
[02:43] <ubotu> I know nothing about custom launchers
[02:43] <t4ken> :(
[02:43] <trippyskippy> jackal`inst, AFAIK ext2 is the only linux filesystem which is easy to undelete from
[02:43] <Dapallo> then when I manualy load it through the dircetory and terminal, it loads the updated on
[02:43] <pppoe_dude> t4ken, ubotu is not google
[02:43] <t4ken> lol
[02:43] <Dapallo> cartesian1984: i said neither, i have hoery(sp)
[02:43] <cartesian1984> Oh, sorry.
[02:43] <Dapallo> np
[02:43] <Patrick_> trippyskippy, I can't change the refreash rate, I'm on a laptop
[02:43] <ubuntu_Iz> i've got a weird problem with ubuntu :/
[02:43] <mikere> Timir: then I'd check NWN docs/forums/etc for info on which ports to forward or allow
[02:43] <Timir> mikere, unknown command iptables
[02:44] <Cyorxamp> !aboutpppoe_dudesshortcomingsdownthereyoushouldaskhim
[02:44] <ubotu> I know nothing about aboutpppoe_dudesshortcomingsdownthereyoushouldaskhim
[02:44] <mikere> Timir: need root mebbe
[02:44] <Dapallo> cartesian1984: thats why i asked you if you could still help
[02:44] <elie> any 1 can hel with this plz------>http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16727
[02:44] <cartesian1984> Ok, hoary....so open up synaptic, and go to mozilla-firefox or firefox, wherever it is in hoary.
[02:44] <mike8901> my ubuntu install on my laptop froze at "configuring hardware."  I have to bloody resize the window to make it refreash....
[02:44] <jackal`inst> cartesian1984, dont think that my main work will be recovering files *g* so ... ext3? or reiserfs? heard some good things about reiser...fast? is that true? or not that good? omg im so clumsy oO
[02:44] <Timir> mikere, ok that worked
[02:44] <Cyorxamp> !ubuntu
[02:44] <ubotu> I know nothing about ubuntu
[02:44] <spikeb> wow.
[02:44] <pppoe_dude> Cyorxamp, please stop
[02:45] <trippyskippy> Patrick_, yeah thats why i think your problem is refresh, compiz has its own refresh rate setting, if this is set too high you often get rendering problems
[02:45] <gnufied> \leave bye
[02:45] <Patrick_> trippyskippy, I can't manipulate anything like this tho...argh
[02:45] <Dapallo> cartesian1984: synaptic says that 1.0.8 is the latest version
[02:45] <[NP] Tangent> ugh
[02:46] <[NP] Tangent> file manager crashed and now it refuses to open again
[02:46] <cartesian1984> jackal`inst: reiser4 is very fast, but experimental. Reiserfs is stable and comparible in speed to ext3. You need a specialized kernel to use reiser4. XFS is the fastest, but you can lose data due to power outages. JFS is slow but good on cpu usage.
[02:46] <Timir> mikere, Okay, how do I use that?
[02:46] <cartesian1984> Dapallo: ok, click on properties.
[02:46] <mikere> Timir: hehe, that's a long discussion =)
[02:46] <Cyorxamp> !thischannelorubuntuasIamawasteofspace
[02:46] <ubotu> I know nothing about thischannelorubuntuasIamawasteofspace
[02:46] <Dapallo> k
[02:46] <kb3mkd> why do two of my ubuntu installations ask me to upgrade to drake, but the 3rd doesn't?
[02:46] <cartesian1984> Dapallo: and find if its placed files in /usr/bin
[02:46] <Warbo> Anyone know how to start Epiphany without running GNOME?
[02:47] <jackal`inst> cartesian1984, ok..your final answere? ext3 or reis? :)
[02:47] <nbjayme> anybody successfully printed to win2k server from Ubuntu?  i can see the print job but it does not go through the  printer.
[02:47] <mikere> Timir: but if the output from iptables -L gives you a list of INPUT, FORWARD and OUTPUT and the default policy is ACCEPT for each, you shoud be ok
[02:47] <gnomefreak> Warbo: you should beable to start it anywhere
[02:47] <pppoe_dude> Cyorxamp, please either ask questions or leave... do not troll in here
[02:47] <elie> any 1 can hel with this plz------>http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16727
[02:47] <cartesian1984> jackal`inst: if you're willing to patch the kernel, reiser4. Its pretty stable now. Otherwise, ext3 is all right, unless you REALLY need file recovery stuff.
[02:47] <Timir> mikere, Thats what it says, like Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
[02:47] <Patrick_> trippyskippy, my refreash rate is 60, what should I set it to? (thats as high as the laptop goes btw)
[02:47] <Dapallo> yes it did
[02:47] <mikere> Timir: ok, it's not the box itself that's blocking
[02:47] <jackal`inst> cartesian1984, i thank you :) i will now continue the installation :)
[02:48] <cartesian1984> Dapallo: what are the names?
[02:48] <cartesian1984> jackal`inst: no problem. Good luck!
[02:48] <mikere> Timir: now I'd check what settings NWN recommends on your router
[02:48] <Warbo> gnomefreak: I am in E16, running from within a chroot in an X in the host system
[02:48] <parker`> Not trying to start a flamewar or anything, but I am a pretty new Linux user that's used both Fedora and Ubuntu, and I was just wondering what you guys like more about Ubuntu that something like FC5
[02:48] <trippyskippy> Patrick_, turn off "automatic" and try it at 50
[02:48] <Dapallo> /usr/bin/firefox  &  /usr/bin/mozilla-firefox
[02:48] <gnomefreak> well that changes a bit than  you can try in terminal
[02:48] <yipe> parker`, head into ubuntu-offtopic for stuff like that
