[01:44] <Morris_The_Cat> Hi everyone... i just upgraded to Feisty which impressed me, but my internal master and slave disks were named sda and sdb by Feisty...why?
[01:45] <ExpositionOfEvil> When I turn on desktop effects on cube mode and set my bottom bar to show two desktops, and click the second one, both bars disappear.
[01:45] <strick1> Anyone know how to partiion and format an HFS+ (Apple format) USB drive on Ubuntu ?
[01:45] <nibsa1242b> Morris_The_Cat I can't tell you why, but I know its common and many people have reported that.
[01:45] <wallydalla1> kde is the GUI for Kubuntu.     Ubuntu has Gnome as the desktopmanager  i think.  i'm new
[01:45] <Supaplex> Morris_The_Cat: what were you using before? serial ata drives are now sdX
[01:45] <Hor|zon> you should be using ogg anyways
[01:45] <razzorz> i d/l the 7.4 iso how do i load it from the disk?..
[01:45] <Hor|zon> it's better than mp3 by a long shot
[01:45] <Gigi> This darn thing is crazy but nice.  I work a lot with the computer writing reports and doing investments.  This stuff will make it funnier :)  I have Linux Ubuntu since 2 years and I even remember what are blue dead screens and erros
[01:45] <nibsa1242b> Supaplex I thought sata drives were always sdx or at least mine were
[01:45] <dredhammer> well thats  a bummer
[01:45] <tiglionabbit> how do I upgrade to feisty from edgy?  The button isn't there
[01:45] <xjkx> wallydalla1, i know whats kde, i would just like to know if it comes by deafault, maybe bringing some qt libs
[01:46] <Morris_The_Cat> yesterday they were hda and hdb...after the installation they just changed to sda and sdb
[01:46] <xjkx> wallydalla1, try calling it there
[01:46] <randomwalker> i got a vexing question
[01:46] <Morris_The_Cat> i'm afraid something could happen to my files
[01:46] <AnRkey> I am trying to share a folder using SMB but i get this >> 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare: usershares are currently disabled
[01:46] <wallydalla1> pardon my ignornace but why is OGG better than MP3?    i don't think OGG is supported by many devices
[01:46] <sid> I messed with madwifi to try and run openhal(without proprietary HAL), and it didn't work...now when I click on the network manager at the top right in gnome, it doesn't show any wireless access points. What package do I install and to fix it? how can I have it auto-over-write any files in the way
[01:46] <randomwalker> how do you pronouce sudo?
[01:46] <Morris_The_Cat> i made a backup though
[01:46] <ajehuk> iain - can you try doing a 'sudo modprobe -i snd-hda-intel' and then restarting alsa.. and see what happens
[01:46] <Xamusk>     state 0x0, keycode 94 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
[01:46] <Xamusk> I want to bind this keycode to backslash bar
[01:46] <idefixx> Morris_The_Cat: thats normal dont worry. internal changes
[01:46] <Hor|zon> wallydalla1, you can install kde in normal ubuntu, just apt get the kde-desktop package and at login you can choose kde
[01:46] <xjkx> wallydalla1, ogg is a free format
[01:46] <wallydalla1> su  dough
[01:46] <Supaplex> nibsa1242b: there's recent kernel changes in 2.6 to move all sata and pata drivers into their own subclass.  A few drivers provide both, and didn't map drives like they should have.
[01:46] <ExpositionOfEvil> When I turn on desktop effects on cube mode and set my bottom bar to show two desktops, and click the second one, both bars disappear.
[01:46] <AnRkey> does any1 know how to give fix this?
[01:46] <AnRkey> 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare: usershares are currently disabled
[01:47] <nibsa1242b> wallydalla1 I believe you get better quality at a lower bitrate with ogg
[01:47] <wallydalla1> mp3 does not cost anything to use does it?
[01:47] <Hor|zon> it's not free
[01:47] <AnRkey> wallydalla1, no i use it and it never charges me :D
[01:47] <Morris_The_Cat> ok ok thanx a lot...i'm breathing calmly now
[01:47] <Morris_The_Cat> :)
[01:47] <Hor|zon> well there used to be royalties it might be free now
[01:47] <wallydalla1> but in 20 years will anything play OGG files?    I bet in 20 years you can still play MP3 files
[01:47] <Hor|zon> I think I heard the patent expired?
[01:48] <sethp> So, any self-proclaimed GRUB masters here?
[01:48] <ajehuk> wallydalla1 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MP3#Licensing_and_patent_issues
[01:48] <markelhas> hi ppl
[01:48] <xjkx> wallydalla1, it supports mp3 http://packages.debian.org/unstable/gnome/serpentine
[01:48] <iain> ajehuk> not a lot.
[01:48] <Hor|zon> wallydalla1 well since ogg is completely open it's more likely ogg will be around...
[01:48] <Supaplex> !ask | sethp
[01:48] <ubotu> sethp: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:48] <forQed> anyone try the Second Life Linux client yet?
[01:48] <randomwalker> is the reiserfs in feisty reiser4 or an earlier version?
[01:48] <wallydalla1> xjkx:   yes.     it is easy also to make the soundjuicer rip files as mp3
[01:48] <markelhas> trying to boot with ubuntu 7.04 cd in my laptop but always rebooting! any tips!?
[01:48] <ExpositionOfEvil> When I turn on desktop effects on cube mode and set my bottom bar to show two desktops, and click the second one, both bars disappear.
[01:48] <Xamusk> unfortunately, it looks like ogg has problems playing in embedded devices, because it uses floating points
[01:49] <AnRkey> forQed, there's a linux client? where?
[01:49] <Hor|zon> not really
[01:49] <idefixx> randomwalker: afaik rfs4 didnt make it to feisty... not sure tough
[01:49] <Hor|zon> I made sure all my players supported ogg
[01:49] <nibsa1242b> wallydalla1 I imagine the opposite will be ture; think about today can you still play old windows games in XP or VISTA... no most of the time you can't but you can in linux under WINE... ogg is an open format and the knowledge to be able to read and use it will still be there 20 years from now it may or may not be for mp3
[01:49] <forQed> AnRkey, it is on their webpage, listed as alpha
[01:49] <RealistR> in beryl.. can I have more than the 4desktops?i have the gnomepanel virtual desktop thing running too and it seems to be kinda differnt cubes?...
[01:49] <Johnny_> i cant install a partition over 250gb annyknow whhy
[01:49] <Hor|zon> any decent player supports ogg...if you're willing to spend the money for a decent one
[01:49] <azariah_d> Greetings! I'm trying to change my resolution from 1024x768 to 1280x1024, and I'm not sure what to add in the xorg.conf, when I added "1280x1024" under depth 24, nothing was displayed at startup.
[01:49] <iain> ajehuk> not a lot happened.
[01:49] <markelhas> trying to boot with ubuntu 7.04 cd in my laptop but always rebooting! any tips!?
[01:50] <Hor|zon> personally mine was $600 so it plays basically anything
[01:50] <Hor|zon> :P
[01:50] <ExpositionOfEvil> markelhas did u burn it correctly?
[01:50] <wallydalla1> yikes   $600 for a music player.
[01:50] <ajehuk> iain - OK situation is - drivers for the sound system are in, all relevant applications doing what they should but no sound.  the card isnt coming out of hibernate... 2 suggestions first, would be to log out and back in and see if it makes any difference (it wont) 2 report the bug with the hibernate people .  I would suggest there is a 50% chance of it being an issue with suspend and 50% problem with the driver..
[01:50] <AnRkey> forQed, never tried Second Life. what's it like?
[01:50] <randomwalker> wallydalla1, in the future ogg support will probably get better but at present it's crap
[01:51] <LoneShadow> do people still have to edit configure files by hand ?
[01:51] <nibsa1242b> I still need an anwser to if installing 32 bit fiesty on a system that used to have 64 bit edgy will mess anything up if I keep my /home but get rid of everything else.
[01:51] <LoneShadow> configuration*
[01:51] <forQed> AnRkey, I haven't either, but since they have a Linux client I thought I might give it a go
[01:51] <ExpositionOfEvil> When I turn on desktop effects on cube mode and set my bottom bar to show two desktops, and click the second one, both bars disappear.
[01:51] <adaptr> of course, only lusers use GUIs :P
[01:51] <nibsa1242b> LoneShadow, its the best way to go
[01:51] <ajehuk> nibsa1242b - no
[01:51] <iain> ajehuk> cool. Thanks bro. Logging out doesn't work. I've tried just restarting X which requires that....
[01:51] <iain> ajehuk> rebooting the comp does ergo my setup is usually fine.
[01:51] <adaptr> ExpositionOfEvil: that's ebcause beryl doesn't care about your desktop settings - use the manager
[01:51] <LoneShadow> I was under the impression, feisty was meant to invite people who dont want to mess with config files :)
[01:51] <iain> ajehuk> so it looks like there's a bug somewhere
[01:51] <ajehuk> iain - looks like the hardware state after coming out of suspend isnt 100% -
[01:52] <ExpositionOfEvil> adaptr and beryls built in?!
[01:52] <iain> ajehuk> where do I bugrep?
[01:52] <LoneShadow> There are lot of frontends for all configs, I hope they are packaged by default with feisty
[01:52] <AnRkey> forQed, i laughed when i saw that people buy virtual property and stuff
[01:52] <nibsa1242b> ajehuk thanks, I didn't think it would but edgy-> fiesty upgrade already messed up so much and I didn't relish doing a fresh install of fiesty and having to deal with all the custom config to get 64 to work as well as 32 does out of the box
[01:52] <markelhas> trying to boot with ubuntu 7.04 cd in my laptop but always rebooting! any tips!?
[01:52] <adaptr> ExpositionOfEvil: "when I turn on desktop effects on cube mode" - > beryl
[01:52] <sethp> Supaplex: Yeah, but every time I ask my question no one responds
[01:52] <LoneShadow> maybe questions to ask for next week :D
[01:52] <jeef> is there any way to easily troubleshoot sound problems? anyone?
[01:52] <azariah_d> LoneShadow: So thought I, until I noticed some options where not there in the graphic configurations.
[01:53] <wallydalla1> is anyone using GAIM right now to chat.   I need a few chat tips.
[01:53] <ExpositionOfEvil> adaptr Wrokspaces on a cube?
[01:53] <sethp> Supaplex: So I figured I'd ask that first, and let anyone who thinks they're a grub master get their ego to pressure them into answering me even if they really don't know what's going on
[01:53] <idefixx> Hor|zon: iPod + Rockbox?
[01:53] <Supaplex> sethp: try the forums or a mailing list.
[01:53] <adaptr> ExpositionOfEvil: erm, yes
[01:53] <azariah_d> wallydalla1: I am
[01:53] <bill> ok, I B a total newbie; in the past week I've repartitioned my HD, installed 64 bit Effy, figured out how to edit xorg.conf, struggled to get my dual monitors working, upgraded to Feisty, finally got the dual monitor working, installed Automatix, installed a whole mess of packages including 32bit Firefox with Flash, installed a network printer, got recognized on my home network and I just wanted to stop in and say "hello" to you all
[01:53] <Ax4> wallydalla1, huh? willing to bet most here use gaim....
[01:53] <adaptr> ExpositionOfEvil: is this new to you ? then I'm sorta curious what *you* meant
[01:53] <ExpositionOfEvil> adaptr kinda
[01:53] <adaptr> !beryl
[01:53] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[01:53] <LiENUS> What package do i need to compile znc with openssl support?
[01:53] <AnRkey> can anyone help me with a sharing problem in feisty? i get this when i try to share a folder >> net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare: usershares are currently disabled
[01:53] <Hor|zon> idefixx: nope...I wanted a linux based player
[01:53] <LoneShadow> azariah_d: atleast if the basic options are in the GUI setup thats good enough for now, maybe they can give GUI with advance options later
[01:53] <wallydalla1> azariah_d:  did you get this message ?   how do 2 people chat without all the high volume
[01:54] <AnRkey> sorry for asking again but it's driving me nuts
[01:54] <ajehuk> iain - interesting test would be to turn off the sound system - hibernate - start up again and enable it see if the problem is still there (it should be if its hardware but as I said it'd be interesting) as to bug reporting Im not sure who would be best to report to but I asume you'd go through the ubuntu but https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs looks like an option - either that or take alook at the man page for hibernate / suspend to s
[01:54] <nibsa1242b> bill your route would have been so much easier if you had just gone with 32 bit
[01:54] <Jack3> is cups included in ubunut?
[01:54] <Ax4> bill, glad you got your stuff working, might i suggest 32 bit next time
[01:54] <Hor|zon> idefixx: I went with a cowon because they have nice firmware updates...lots of new features every once in a while for free

[02:01] <gilda> dagmal what type of video card ?
[02:01] <Ax4> nihil_, no sweat :)
[02:01] <stefg> dagma1: Two possibilities... Either the CD is bad (but that would result in messages on screen like I/O error on block...) or your hardware isn't properly detected. That's hard to track down without further info
[02:01] <ajehuk> Jack3 - well anywa there is good suport for it with gutenprint
[02:01] <snaunton> badkitty - use qemu though, it is open source

[02:02] <snaunton> badkitty - did you use vmware via synaptic apt-get etc or from vmware's web site?
[02:02] <razzorz> I don't mean iso** forgive me..

[02:02] <josesordo> how to install X-Chat IRC...?
[02:02] <Jack3> ajehuk hehe
[02:02] <wallydalla1> At0mic_PC:  i would just buy a used or new sound card.   so cheap.  that is what I did.   now sound works
[02:02] <Ax4> 'sudo apt-get install xchat'

[02:02] <dagma1> ati mobility radeon x1400
[02:03] <atlantia> can someone please explain why it doesn't work?
[02:03] <ajehuk> Jack3 what you want is the control panel kcontrol (either alt+f2 then type kcontrol into the box) or look on your kmenu
[02:03] <razzorz> why not use Chatzilla instead
[02:03] <asdfasdf> nibsa1242b where were you going with it?

[02:03] <gordon> ^in^with
[02:03] <badkitty> Ive tried both bridged and NAT connection(vmware setting)
[02:03] <asdfasdf> nibsa1242b i have a 30 gb ssd one too but its screwy
[02:03] <At0mic_PC> No amount of tinkering has helped. I think my kids may have fixed it for me but I'm not sure what they did.
[02:03] <stockfisch> can anyone tell me how to mount a firewire device?
[02:04] <sanityx> What gets installed when you install a command line system off the alternate cd
[02:04] <dagma1> stefg: might be that my laptop is not supported
[02:04] <nibsa1242b> asdfasdf I'll go look, usb installing might be under something like network installiation or alternative install methods... I dunno if that part of the wiki is updated for fiesty yet
[02:04] <wallydalla1> At0mic_PC:   did you try some headphones and make sure the volume is turned up.
[02:04] <badkitty> I also looked at the config it says something like auto eth0 ifconfig eth0 dhcp inet ....
[02:04] <czer323> !ubuntu-basic
[02:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu-basic - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:04] <Dante123> hey what is the command for root gui access to nautilus???
[02:04] <stas> anyone know how to play m4v files?
[02:04] <stefg> dagma1: laptops are sometimes tricky .... see if you can find it in the hardware list
[02:04] <At0mic_PC> No I haven't tried headphones.

[02:04] <gilda> sudo nautilus
[02:05] <Zorko> stas have you tried vlc?
[02:05] <wallydalla1> it could be your speakers are blown or just not working
[02:05] <stas> no, let me look into it

[02:05] <Fylk> Has any one gotten DVD play back to work in fiesty?
[02:05] <asdfasdf> nibsa1242b um im going to do it with a edgy downloaded iso, i have a 256k dsl line so ill just do the upgrade tonight
[02:05] <ardchoille> !gksudo | gilda
[02:05] <ubotu> gilda: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>
[02:05] <At0mic_PC> Could be. I don't have any headphones though.
[02:05] <Dante123> thanks gilda
[02:05] <gilda> hehe well i stand corrected ;)
[02:05] <Ax4> Fylk, yes
[02:05] <wallydalla1> Fylk:   good question.  does automatix work with feisty
[02:05] <PaveloSLS> hi for all
[02:06] <badkitty> Any ideas for my networking issue anyone?
[02:06] <ardchoille> !automatix | wallydalla1
[02:06] <asdfasdf> !automatix | wallydalla1
[02:06] <ubotu> wallydalla1: Automatix2 is a proprietary script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[02:06] <asdfasdf> lol
[02:06] <Fylk> How did you get it working AX4? And I mean comiceral DVDs
[02:06] <ajehuk> badkitty - I missed it - whats up
[02:06] <nibsa1242b> asdfasdf ok, I'm pretty sure there is a manual out there that allows you to do that... I used it when I did a network install of my edgy and I'm pretty sure it mentioned something about usb I'm trying to google it
[02:06] <ExpositionOfEvil> When I turn on desktop effects and set a firefox window to fullscreen I cant close it
[02:06] <wallydalla1> At0mic_PC:    try to plug your speakers into some other ipod or something like that , boombox etc.
[02:06] <Ax4> Fylk, VLC works wonders, have you tried it?
[02:06] <ajehuk> Fylk - are you in the US?
[02:06] <asdfasdf> nibsa1242b ok i can wait
[02:06] <badkitty> Im trying to get vmware working with ubuntu server as far as network access... i have none
[02:07] <Fylk> I've used VLC. Hell, I use VLC in my windows partion. And yes, US.
[02:07] <asdfasdf> nibsa1242b i was hoping i could just dump the iso to the flash drive and choose to boot from it but that doesnt work

[02:07] <wallydalla1> is there any better solution that automatix.  i  find it works well for instlling google earth and real player and the java plugin for firefox.  all tools that i need when I setup systems for friends.
[02:08] <badkitty> I think i saw an upgrade from iso feature in the docs somewhere
[02:08] <asdfasdf> wallydalla1 ive had luck with easyubuntu
[02:08] <pavan> hi! I am trying to install netbeans but it says it requires java 1.5 but instead is finding 1.4 version.. 1.4 is installed, so how do I change the path?
[02:08] <Fylk> ajehuk, help?
[02:08] <nibsa1242b> asdfasdf I think its a tad more complicated then that you have to make the flash drive bootable or something and you might even need a special iso I don't remember I'm still looking so I don't want to say something incorrect
[02:08] <wallydalla1> what is easyubuntu?   is that like automatix
[02:08] <stefg> wallydalla1: getting a proper sources.list and using apt is cleaner and quicker
[02:08] <Ax4> pavan, sudo nano -w /etc/profile
[02:08] <asdfasdf> yea
[02:08] <spikeb> wallydalla1: yes, only it doesn't suck as much.
[02:08] <Ax4> pavan, add your new path in there
[02:08] <LjL> wallydalla1: why not just install them with the tool that's been provided since forever - APT? google earth is available from the medibuntu repository, same (i think) for real player, java is available in the official repositories
[02:09] <wallydalla1> ok, sucks less.  good.   i will google that now
[02:09] <badkitty> Automatix broke my system bad and I lost lots of time (especially cause I had beryl working after many issues)
[02:09] <pavan> Ax4: oh ok.. thanks..
[02:09] <stefg> !easyubuntu
[02:09] <ubotu> easyubuntu is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. See http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ - For help and or discussions about EasyUbuntu please join #easyubuntu
[02:09] <badkitty> Automatix actually installed an upgrade when there was none lol
[02:09] <asdfasdf> nibsa1242b lol my mobo and bios support usb in the boot, i do a f8 and it can boot to my ipod (it doesnt work though lol)
[02:09] <ExpositionOfEvil> When I turn on desktop effects and set a firefox window to fullscreen I cant close it
[02:09] <wallydalla1> yes. automatix broke a test system for me once.   post automatix i could not use APT-GET
[02:09] <nibsa1242b> wallydalla1 and installing stuff without a proper source list can make it difficult when you upgrade from your current version of ubuntu
[02:10] <ExpositionOfEvil> I found a bug
[02:10] <DB42> gr !
[02:10] <DB42> just updated from 6.10 to 7.04
[02:10] <DB42> also fixed my monitor resolution to 1680x1050
[02:10] <DB42> tons of error in installation
[02:10] <asdfasdf> whoa
[02:10] <wallydalla1> well i mostly use ubuntu for systems I never plan to upgrade.
[02:10] <Agony> Hey guys, I have a problem. After upgrading to Feisty from Edgy, my laptop now refuses to play sound, and gives the error: "Could not open resource for writing." everytime a sound is attempted to be played.
[02:10] <DB42> but everything seems to be working ok :)
[02:10] <ExpositionOfEvil> adaptr this bug has nothing to do with my card
[02:10] <stefg> I can only warn about the use of Automatix.... there's frequently people in here whose systems got hosed by it, to the point of format and reinstall
[02:10] <TokenBad> hmm...I can't use my terminal
[02:10] <OrTigaS> when i minimize a window, it was hidden. where i can enable it?
[02:10] <nibsa1242b> asdfasdf mine is the same... but just like you can't put all the files in an iso on a cd and expect it to boot I think there is a special way to make flash drives bootable
[02:10] <azariah_d> DB42: how did you change the monitor resolution?
[02:10] <wallydalla1> I have an ubuntu server and I never touch that.  when I want to play with ubuntu I use a different machine.
[02:11] <LjL> !away > stoft|away    (stoft|away, see the private message from Ubotu)
[02:11] <DB42> azariah_d, : i made up higher scan rates for the monitor, and added that resolution to xorg.conf
[02:11] <cedricshock> how can I turn the monitor backlight on and off (preferably from the command line)?
[02:11] <TokenBad> terminal opens but is all white
[02:11] <ExpositionOfEvil> Set desktop effects ON and move a window to the middle of the screen and make it full screen.  The only way to close it is by right clicking it on the bottom and sellecting close
[02:11] <DB42> making up scan rates monitor might be bad on crt monitors (i have WS LCD)
[02:11] <stoft|away> LjL: ok, thnx, didn't know that.
[02:11] <EADG> Evening all.
[02:11] <Agony> Anyone have any ideas?
[02:11] <Hor|zon> yeah can't you just read it off of the back of your crt?
[02:12] <DB42> desktop is even more amazing in high res
[02:12] <gotpunk> woohoo my work laptop loves fiesty
[02:12] <gotpunk> mm
[02:12] <ExpositionOfEvil> Set desktop effects ON and move a window to the middle of the screen and make it full screen.  The only way to close it is by right clicking it on the bottom and sellecting close
[02:12] <LjL> stoft|away: remember also that, with most unscripted clients, you can just type "/away reason" to set yourself away silently (i.e. people who /whois you will see that you're away, and people with a modern client may see your nick in a different color)
[02:12] <gotpunk> ExpositionOfEvil: you speak lies
[02:12] <bruenig> did they fix xubuntu feisty yet
[02:12] <gotpunk> works fine for me
[02:12] <TomTheGeek> I'm getting the error "no unused partitions of the type linux raid autodetect are available" when I try to setup software radi

[02:12] <badkitty> i hear feisty has improved support for vmware
[02:12] <dagma1> thanks guy... i go and start having fun with my installation ... as you said it my hardware is not completely supported
[02:12] <Zorko> I sort of wish the liveCD wouldn't insist on running at 1024xwhatever, it looks sort of bad when my screen is 1080p
[02:12] <At0mic_P1> Well I booted into windows and verfied that the sound card and the speakers are working.
[02:13] <gotpunk> Zorko: not all of us are spoiled rotten :-P
[02:13] <xtknight> greetings
[02:13] <nibsa1242b> asdfasdf ok I think I might have it... https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/installation-guide/i386/ch05s01.html#usb-boot
[02:13] <asdfasdf> nibsa1242b yea
[02:13] <DB42> now i need to try pivot mode 1050x1680
[02:13] <asdfasdf> nibsa1242b oops hold on
[02:13] <badkitty> ubuntu
[02:13] <xtknight> if i software-RAID0'd together a 50G and a 250G drive, it ends up being 300G?  how does that work?
[02:13] <Hor|zon> lol having a montiro from the last 5 years is "spoiled rotten"
[02:13] <Zorko> gotpunk, I am sure not all of you are lucky enough to find a HD screen in a skip
[02:13] <Hor|zon> nice definition
[02:13] <Zorko> that was a good day
[02:13] <razzorz> WHo i just read the Details for The new Distro and it wants to remove Beryl and everything corisponding with it.. can i stop this?
[02:13] <dunstabulos_> raid 0 is striping
[02:13] <Hor|zon> monitor*
[02:13] <DB42> ohh, HD, i'll try watching lost and see if it works
[02:13] <Agony> Hey guys, I have a problem. After upgrading to Feisty from Edgy, my laptop now refuses to play sound, and gives the error: "Could not open resource for writing." everytime a sound is attempted to be played.
[02:14] <TomTheGeek> xtknight what type pof raid did you set up ? LVM?
[02:14] <stefg> xtknight: don't do that... stupid idea
[02:14] <gotpunk> lol yeah that too
[02:14] <xtknight> TomTheGeek, mdraid i think
[02:14] <dunstabulos_> so some data goes on each drive
[02:14] <_shawn> what's the best way to replicate an ubuntu install/config to multiple machines?
[02:14] <ExpositionOfEvil> gotpunk the window cannot be touching the top when making it fullscreen
[02:14] <xtknight> stefg, why?  what happens?
[02:14] <Jon_yoosic> I'm having a hard time finding some information on compiling a Promise RAID driver for Ubunutu, can someone suggest a good place to find one???? I know I'm a bad person for using a Promise RAID controller but its what Ive got.

[02:15] <cplgrayson> Hey guys im having a problem gettin ZD8000 HP laptop to connect with wireless card,
[02:15] <stefg> xtknight: you might get 'stripes' on the same disk... awful performance and stressing the disk for no reason
[02:15] <xtknight> stefg, ahh hmm
[02:15] <doc|> cplgrayson,  chip ?
[02:15] <nibsa1242b> asdfasdf its not always that easy... and that guide is specific to the alternate install cd, but I don't see why that wouldn't work with the regular one
[02:15] <pavan> josesordo: see ubuntuguide.org where they talk about medibuntu repo what has the codecs
[02:15] <xtknight> stefg, i would have thought it just striped the first 50G or somethin
[02:15] <Agony> Anyone have any ideas?
[02:15] <At0mic_P1> Well now I feel retarded. I moved up some bars in alsamixer and sound works.
[02:15] <razzorz> Would anyoe know how to stop the rmoveal of beryl during the update??
[02:16] <badkitty> lol
[02:16] <TomTheGeek> what would I need to do to setup mirroed drives witha promise controller?
[02:16] <razzorz> Anyone**
[02:16] <At0mic_P1> Man... I am one pathetic loser!
[02:16] <LinuxRox_> hi during the ugpgrade from 6.10 edgy to 7.04 fawn i got a box that had a link to report upgrade problems....i didnt write it down ...anyone have it?
[02:16] <asdfasdf> nibsa1242b ok thats a little complex for me, i think im going to need to be walked through that
[02:16] <xtknight> stefg, well time to reverse the damager and make it 100G instead.  is there an easy raid management tool i can use as easy as the one in the alternate installer CD?
[02:16] <nibsa1242b> asdfasdf I prefer the advanced options from the alternate cd anyway... I never use the normal one execpt to show off Ubuntu to skeptics
[02:16] <rookiehwm> if i could just have itunes on ubuntu, i'd be set
[02:16] <rookiehwm> grr
[02:16] <stefg> xtknight: it would work if you soft-raid *partitions* of the same size... but, blieve me, it isn't worth it

[02:24] <ajehuk> Fylk - those lines need to be added to /etc/sources.list (anywhere at the bottom) but you can happily replace edgy with feisty i.e. 'deb http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repo/ edgy free non-free' becomes 'deb http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repo/ feisty free non-free'

[02:29] <dunstabulos_> ozymandias: ubuntu does not enable the root account as standard, the user you created is setup to have sudo rights
[02:29] <Kazol> Does anyone here know howto change settings in Peerguardian??
[02:29] <TirEoghain> Hi Impaque, thanks for that. I have checked through the WIKI and I am still having issues unfortunately, I am unable to run the aticonfig --initial command and when I edit the xorg.conf directly, unfortunately, I am unable to get it to work

[02:29] <Dante123> ajehuk.....do you know what ISO my neighbour needs for his HP intel duo core processor?  The regular desktop i386 one or a special iso?
[02:29] <Impaque> TirEoghain: details?
[02:30] <dunstabulos_> ozymandias: you should use your accounts password
[02:30] <randomwalker> Dante123: regular
[02:30] <TirEoghain> Well, this is where it breaks down, lol, I am unable to provide you with details as I am new to Linux (at least install proprietary drivers) and I am not sure what is going wrong
[02:30] <ajehuk> Dante123 - no idea, havent had the chance to look at the dual cores yet.. I would guess the regular CD would work - but that is a guess ( a blind one really )
[02:30] <Impaque> Dante123: i386 would be a safe bet, though if he feels brave and daring, he might try amd64 version
[02:30] <stp2007> question. How long does the Ubuntu installation take from CD? If the answer is 40 minutes or so (on an admittedly older laptop) then everything is ok.
[02:31] <zazeem> Hello, i have an mx310 mouse and was wondering how to configure it in my xorg config, i tried multiple online guides and each time it just messed me up when i restarted my x, it would say xorg cfg error and wouldnt boot into ubuntu

[02:31] <Abom> what's the registry editor called in ubuntu?
[02:31] <Dante123> ok.......thanks all
[02:31] <TirEoghain> fglrxinfo confirms that I am not using ATI drivers, however, when I started my machine, Unbunutu warned me I was using 'proprietary drivers'
[02:31] <Abom> someone said I should look for the windows equivelant of the registry editor
[02:31] <wastrel> Abom:  there's no registry as such
[02:31] <zipped20x> i have a question
[02:31] <wallydalla1> pixelation: first un maximize by pressing keyboard    alt + f4    then move with alt  + f7
[02:31] <debaser> hello
[02:31] <nuked_omen> zipped20x: try another repository
[02:31] <Winkerbean> So, how does one mount a blank dvd-rw for read/write access?
[02:31] <wastrel> Abom:  they're probably thinking of gconf-editor
[02:31] <zipped20x> i just got my computer online
[02:31] <Kazol> I need suggestions on what OS to use for a webserver, that will allow me to use RAID-1 easily (I already tried Ubuntu).
[02:31] <Impaque> TirEoghain: what card do you have?
[02:31] <debaser> can anyone help me with a problem upgrading from 6.10 to 7.04?
[02:31] <zipped20x> and i'm downloading some updates for it
[02:32] <nuked_omen> there is no registry in ubuntu (thank god_
[02:32] <TirEoghain> Mobility Radeon 9700
[02:32] <ajehuk> Kazol - software raid or hardware raid?
[02:32] <randomwalker> Impaque: they seem to have core duo not core 2
[02:32] <Abom> ahh this is it, thanks wastrel, I saw this before :)
[02:32] <zazeem> Hello, i have an mx310 mouse and was wondering how to configure it in my xorg config, i tried multiple online guides and each time it just messed me up when i restarted my x, it would say xorg cfg error and wouldnt boot into ubuntu
[02:32] <debaser> *USE GENTOO
[02:32] <zipped20x> how do you add a repository?
[02:32] <wallydalla1> Kazol: try ubuntu from the server cd ISO image.  some call it the alternate cd i think.
[02:32] <zazeem> are there any nvidia tweaks to add in the xorg cfg other than on ubuntu guide?
[02:32] <pixelation> wallydallal, thanks man, umm, all my windows have no border and only open on the left top of my screen and are unmovable without f7, what's up with that, how do I fix it?
[02:32] <Kazol> ajehuk: software, I've spent over 4 hours trying to get it to work
[02:32] <FreeKFC_Guy> its not good time to upgrade cuz so many ppl doing at same time
[02:32] <Kazol> wallydalla1: I need an easy way to setup RAID-1. I'm new to linux.
[02:32] <Impaque> randomwalker: ah, 32-bit then
[02:32] <randomwalker> stp2007, no way to know for sure, but if you 256 mb or mor eof memory its very likely less than half an hour

[02:33] <rob1n> do i have to upgrade incrementally to get from Dapper to Feisty?

[02:33] <obsethryl> hello, are there any known issues in the lvm setup using the alternative cd install? I have a rather huge lvm + raid storage set here i want to plug in during installation
[02:33] <ajehuk> Kazol - hmm ubuntu should do, I'd use debian stable for it, but the issues would be similar on both.  For a webserver that will be under any sort of load I would suggest hardware raid tho
[02:33] <debaser> well I'm not here to discuss that
[02:33] <Impaque> debaser: read up on slashdot and such.. staying current through bleeding edge is VERY bad
[02:33] <FreeKFC_Guy> there is a official ubuntu torrent page

I don't know where to find out my Server address to be added to exports I think.
[02:34] <VividHazE> probably a stupid newbie question :S
[02:34] <zipped20x> is there a place where i can download it one at a time so that it's less likely to fail me?

[02:34] <zazeem> can anyone help?
[02:34] <Impaque> TirEoghain: what card again, sorry?
[02:34] <randomwalker> debaser, oh sorry
[02:34] <debaser> "I was upgrading but it seems the process was interrupted, and now ubuntu doesn't boot."
[02:34] <stp2007> randomwalker, I have 256 meg and its been about 40 minutes with a lot of CD drive access. A new window (titled Install) opened up in the last 5 or 10 minutes but is empty. Just for clarity sake after booting from the Ubuntu CD I should click on the Installl icon right?
[02:35] <TirEoghain> sorry, its a Mobility Radeon 9700
[02:35] <ajehuk> Kazol - hmmm that sounds odd. what errors were you seeing?
[02:35] <wallydalla1> pixelation:  u r welcome.  uhhh i don't see your screen .  did u try to reset the x server config.    try this command...      sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg      just hit enter to answer all questions
[02:35] <randomwalker> stp2007: right
[02:35] <nuked_omen> zipped20x: the 7.04 repositories are not that stable, i'm having problems with em too
[02:35] <stp2007> randomwalker, ok thanks. I guess its just going to take a while.
[02:35] <debaser> is there a way to resume the upgrade or do it again, considering I can't boot with any kernel?
[02:35] <randomwalker> stp2007: looks like there's a problem with either the CD or the memory
[02:35] <VividHazE> What is my server name when setting up shares in etc/exports???
[02:36] <Kazol> ajehuk: I got "could not execute pmount", I even tried formatting the hd's with the windows CD.
[02:36] <VividHazE> or more to the point how do I find it
[02:36] <franky723> nuked_omen: i can download it normally but i only get 25kbps so i was looking for a 7.04 torrent. i can only find torrents for 6.10

[02:39] <debaser> so, I asked in the forums but I still have no answer and I'm really desperate to get help
[02:39] <VividHazE> Ax4: Could you please help me with my problem. I'm setting up NFS, and I entered my share and followed the thread on it and I still can't access the folders.
[02:39] <NobleCommerc1> hey, anyone know why x says my refresh is 50hz when my xorg.conf specifies 60? Its a tv.
[02:39] <debaser> is there a way to resume a broken upgrade?
[02:40] <Ax4> VividHazE, wait your turn, got other people with questions lol, this is turning into a job! :p
[02:40] <VividHazE> :)
[02:40] <zipped20x> is there a website or some place i could go to download updates for my computer one at a time?
[02:40] <randomwalker> stp2007, describe exactly what happened after you clicked install. just a blank window?
[02:40] <debaser> NobleComm, use /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[02:40] <nuked_omen> debaser: when my upgrade gets broken, it resumes automatically when i start it again
[02:40] <obsethryl> excuse me for repeating the request, are there any known issues in the lvm setup using the alternative cd install? I have a rather huge lvm + raid storage set here i want to plug in during installation; current google search gives nothing but i want to avoid mistakes, thanks
[02:40] <Ax4> zipped20x, yes, im finding it for you, sec :)

[02:40] <stp2007> randomwalker, lots of disk access and eventually a blank window. To be honest I can't remember because I was doing other things as well. I just rebooted and will try to reinstall again.
[02:41] <Impaque> VividHazE: did you do sudo exportfs -ra afterwards?
[02:41] <randomwalker> stp2007, if you have 256 megs
[02:41] <Impaque> VividHazE: (reloads /etc/exports)
[02:41] <VividHazE> on the client or the server impaque
[02:41] <VividHazE> both?
[02:41] <randomwalker> stp2007, you don't have enough memory to install and do lots of other things at the same time
[02:41] <debaser> actually I can't start it again
[02:41] <rookiehwm> my keyboard shortcut isn't working :( alt-f2 is still opening the gnome terminal, not aterm
[02:41] <rookiehwm> anyone know how to fix this?
[02:41] <debaser> I can't boot
[02:41] <randomwalker> stp2007, so try not opening other programs other than the installer
[02:41] <stp2007> randomwalker, I was doing the other stuff on my other laptop :)
[02:41] <randomwalker> stp2007, oh. then try to see how much memory it's using
[02:41] <ajehuk> Kazol - back to your raid issue -
[02:42] <Kazol> ajehuk: ok
[02:42] <stp2007> randomwalker, how can I determine that?
[02:42] <ajehuk> Kazol - does this machine have any other OS's installed?

[02:42] <Impaque> VividHazE: server
[02:42] <TirEoghain> that paste service is a damn good idea, how long do the entries stay live for?
[02:43] <stp2007> randomwalker, ok will give that a try when able to. Might be a bit because I really didn't have mouse control (slow. etc)
[02:43] <foxhound> Hi,I have an asus wl-167g wireless USB adapter and I would like to know if it is going to be recognised by ubuntu,or if I have to make some configurations

[02:46] <Impaque> Winkerbean: (afaik, it still can't work as in WinXP f.e., to open it, drag & drop some files and just select "burn" from a menu)
[02:46] <DARKGuy> hey, anybody knows how to record the screen output ?
[02:46] <xtknight> how do i remove a raid0 array for good?  it's not as easy as it sounds.....

[02:46] <DARKGuy> like, to make a video of an app or my desktop
[02:46] <debaser> *BASH REDIRECTION
[02:46] <nuked_omen> debaser: why not plug your harddrive as a slave in another computer and take whatever you want, or you can boot a live cd and get all your data on dvds or an external hard drive
[02:46] <zipped20x> brb
[02:46] <Winkerbean> Impaque: Oh. Whoops. :-[  Thanks.
[02:46] <nuked_omen> then you can play with it without the risk
[02:47] <mistaWAC> hello?
[02:47] <Winkerbean> TirEoghain, thank you, as well.
[02:47] <TirEoghain> np
[02:47] <mistaWAC> am I finally in this chat thing?
[02:47] <Kazol> ajehuk: Thanks. Is it text-based and will it be easy to use software RAID-1?
[02:47] <DARKGuy> mistaWAC: yeah
[02:47] <Winkerbean> Yes, mistaWAC, wuzzup?
[02:47] <Impaque> Winkerbean: np, just find a nice DVD burning app
[02:47] <nuked_omen> mistaWAC: no
[02:47] <mistaWAC> nice....new to linux and been at joining this server for a while
[02:47] <debaser> I can boot in the network and copy everything through samba but I haven't any computer with more than 2 GB free, and I need at least 6
[02:47] <zipped20x> trying. . . .
[02:47] <zipped20x> would having edgy make a difference?
[02:47] <DARKGuy> mistaWAC: welcome :D
[02:47] <VR_> !avi
[02:47] <mistaWAC> thanks
[02:47] <DARKGuy> !avi

[02:48] <DARKGuy> anybody knows how to record the screen output? like, for recording a video of my desktop or app tutorial? o.o;
[02:48] <Impaque> VividHazE: space is a no-go
[02:48] <debaser> There are a wide variety of solutions but the most fast is trying to resume reinstall, so I first want to discard that
[02:48] <debaser> that possibility
[02:48] <Impaque> VividHazE: try quoting
[02:48] <Kazol> What is your opinion? I have a 800Mhz 256MB 2x10GB webserver; how many connections\bandwidth will it hadle before saturation?
[02:48] <debaser> *the faster
[02:48] <DARKGuy> !ask | mistaWAC
[02:48] <NobleCommerc1> debaser: i checked my log, no metion of the refresh rate at all
[02:48] <ubotu> mistaWAC: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:48] <debaser> *the fastest
[02:48] <debaser> sorry
[02:48] <ajehuk> Kazol - but then thats true for all.
[02:48] <chrissturm> is it safe to upgrade to feisty on a server with a software raid and lvm2?
[02:48] <mistaWAC> !ask
[02:48] <mistaWAC> whoops
[02:48] <mistaWAC> what?  I'm new to linux mn...throw me a bone
[02:48] <VividHazE> impaque: space is a no go? try quoting?  Call me stupid, which I am, but what do you mean? :S
[02:49] <DARKGuy> mistaWAC: just ask your question :P
[02:49] <mistaWAC> lol
[02:49] <DARKGuy> if anybody knows, they'll reply
[02:49] <debaser> NobleComm: I don't know what could be the problem, there should be a message there
[02:49] <Kazol> ajehuk: I'll try it. I am making efforts to convert everything to Ubuntu now.
[02:49] <Impaque> VividHazE: you have a space in directory name. "Shared Files"
[02:49] <mistaWAC> okay...this is the thing...I'm trying to turn this Ubuntu box into a server for a VPN that Windows Clients can connect to.
[02:49] <Impaque> VividHazE: you'll have to quote, or, prepend a \ before space, like this: Shared\ Files
[02:49] <mistaWAC> Can that be done and if so, hw?
[02:49] <VividHazE> impaque: ahhh, ok i'll try brb
[02:49] <Impaque> VividHazE: (ie. "escape" it)
[02:49] <DARKGuy> anybody knows how to record the screen output? like, for recording a video of my desktop or app tutorial?
[02:49] <debaser> NobleComm: it should be preceded by a WW
[02:50] <TirEoghain> Impaque, I am looking through this log again, and the ATI driver seems to load fine, could that be possible, there is no (EE) type messages around where I think it loads the fglrx module
[02:50] <Morpheus_74> lliniinux basics
[02:50] <Impaque> TirEoghain: does lsmod show fglrx module?
[02:50] <NobleCommerc1> nope :(
[02:50] <jessid> hello. I have installed Ubuntu 7.04 for x86 arch. when I try to enable the restricted module of Nvidia, it does not allows me...is that possible to fix? how??? thanks a lot!!!
[02:50] <wallydalla1> mistaWAC:   you might buy a linksys box to use while you debug your ubuntu box.  this will keep you sane.
[02:50] <Impaque> TirEoghain: (or what's the name again, i'm not using that driver..)
[02:51] <NobleCommerc1> the tv out is working, looks great... i just want to make sure the refresh is 60hz
[02:51] <debaser> NobleComm: or you're using another configuration file, or another log file, or you didn't check with enough precission, that's all I can tell you, but could be perfectly something else.
[02:51] <randomc0de> is there a way I can force Firefox to use the non-msttcore fonts without removing the package?
[02:51] <TirEoghain> Impaque, : fglrx                 540004  0
[02:51] <VR_> whenever i play an .avi file in totem, my whole system freezes. i do have "Ubuntu restricted extras" installed as well as w32codecs. am i missing something?
[02:51] <southafrikanse> No sound on Ubuntu Feisty. Need help
[02:51] <wallydalla1> does anyone know a PCI wifi card that i can buy used that will work easily with Ubuntu?
[02:51] <TirEoghain> so i guess that means yes?
[02:51] <eck> randomc0de: you can change the default font, but many web pages will specify the font to use for the page by font name (e.g. Arial)
[02:51] <boss> For kickstart configuration of Ubuntu, if I specify a postinstallation script with %post, am I by default in a chroot?
[02:51] <debaser> I don't know how you can do it, but I've had that problem and checking in monitorworld and setting up things correctly was the solution
[02:51] <mistaWAC> Wally, lol...sanity isn't a problem..I am fairly patient and if a basic idea is given on how to do this, I can probably manage to figure it out
[02:51] <NobleCommerc1> well i'm sure i'm using xorg.conf, cause i just set the tv out settings in it and tv out began working
[02:52] <boss> If so, does %post --nochroot work in Ubuntu?
[02:52] <debaser> but I guess that's not your problem
[02:52] <DARKGuy> anybody knows how to record the screen output? like, for recording a video of my desktop or app tutorial?
[02:52] <NobleCommerc1> i defined my monitor with a horizontal rate to 30-50, vertrefresh 60

[02:52] <DARKGuy> cool, thanks crimsun
[02:52] <debaser> than I can't help you more, I just recommend you check very carefully the settings
[02:52] <Ax4> mistaWAC, its is possible to setup a VPN connection via ipsec, look into "vpnc"
[02:52] <Ax4> it*
[02:52] <southafrikanse> crimsun: Need help again
[02:52] <crimsun> southafrikanse: ?
[02:52] <VividHazE> Whats the command to display my IP address?
[02:52] <southafrikanse> crimsun: I had to reinstall Ubuntu again
[02:52] <mistaWAC> I have KVpnc though, but from the looks of it it's just a client thing...how do I configure taht
[02:53] <eck> boss: isn't kickstart redhat/fedora only?
[02:53] <debaser> ifconfig
[02:53] <mistaWAC> configure it to be a server?
[02:53] <boss> eck: No, it's available for Ubuntu as well.
[02:53] <VividHazE> thanks debaser
[02:53] <debaser> VividHaZe: ifconfig
[02:53] <wastrel> there's kickstart for ubunto i saw a web page about it
[02:53] <NemesisD> hi guys, real quick because my memory is failing me, whats the command to view all connected hard drives and partitions on them?
[02:53] <southafrikanse> crimsun: You helped me yesterday with my sound problem

[02:53] <wallydalla1> NobleCommerc1:   i am a teacher and i use hardware.   i got a 2 boxes.   an avermedia box that converts VGA to composite video.  Then you can use any firewire camera hooked up to iMovie
[02:53] <boss> eck: It's just not as well integrated as Redhat's ISOs are.
[02:53] <eck> i see
[02:53] <southafrikanse> crimsun: But I had to reinstall Ubuntu again
[02:53] <southafrikanse> crimsun: Don'y know if you remember me

[02:54] <Shaba1> hey guys and ladies
[02:54] <peeps> can anyone help me boot from a USB external cd drive?  I can't figure it out
[02:54] <VividHazE> debaser: When I'm entering my IP address so I can share files do you use the inet address or the Broadcast address?
[02:54] <Fylk> Guys, how do I install from a tar?
[02:54] <Shaba1> is there a reliable vnc server for linux
[02:54] <Hobart> Anyone know how to blow away all graphic configs and ask Ubuntu to re-detect / configure graphics like it does during install?
[02:54] <crimsun> southafrikanse: which model did you have to use?
[02:54] <Shaba1> I have not found one by seaching synamptic
[02:54] <wallydalla1> peeps:  your motherboard BIOS must support boot from USB.
[02:54] <Impaque> TirEoghain: no idea :( try following the guide again, sorry
[02:54] <randomc0de> Fylk: is depends on what you want to install
[02:54] <Fylk> Wait..
[02:54] <debaser> VividHaZe: you want to access a computer?
[02:54] <NemesisD> anyone? what's the command to view all hard disks and their volumes? i've forgotten it
[02:54] <peeps> wallydalla1, it does supposedly.  I set the first boot device to USB-CDROM, but it is not working
[02:54] <debaser> if that's the case you use IP
[02:54] <boss> wastrel: !kickstart > username prevents the channel from getting spammed. Just as an aside.
[02:55] <southafrikanse> crimsun: LG P1-5005P
[02:55] <randomwalker> NemesisD: df
[02:55] <debaser> broadcast is for sending packages to every machine in the network
[02:55] <VividHazE> debaser: No I'm setting up NFS and I need to enter the location of the file...wait...gah i'm stupid brb
[02:55] <peeps> wallydalla1, i have USB 2.0, but the drive is telling me it is connected to 1.1 (it has a red/green) indicator light
[02:55] <debaser> well in that case you use IP
[02:55] <techfiz_> Hi All
[02:55] <wallydalla1> peeps:  well then i guess you should reformat your USB drive and then install the OS to the USB.  many tools to do that see google
[02:55] <techfiz_> i'm trying to nat the connection to my vmware ubuntu installation
[02:55] <debaser> or hostname if you have a correct /etc/hosts
[02:56] <ozymandias> for future reference, how does one select the desktop enviroment when installing? I don't want to have to download 200meg to fix this if I can just do it right from the start
[02:56] <jessid> hello. I have installed Ubuntu 7.04 for x86 arch. when I try to enable the restricted module of Nvidia, it does not allows me...is that possible to fix? how??? thanks a lot!!!
[02:56] <Yahooadam> hey guys, i want to mount an iso on a networked computer, how do i find a network computer in terminal to use - sudo mount file.iso /media/iso/ -t iso9660 -o loop
[02:56] <techfiz_>  1012  iptables --append FORWARD --in-interface vmnet1  -j ACCEPT
[02:56] <techfiz_>  1013  iptables -A INPUT -i vmnet1 -s <IP_ADDRESS>/24 -d <IP_ADDRESS> -j ACCEPT
[02:56] <mistaWAC> how am I supposed to configure KVpnc to make my Linux desktop act as a server and allow Windows clients to log in and be a part of the VPN?
[02:56] <Ax4> mistaWAC, you want a server setup? ok look into pptpd
[02:56] <Fylk> Random, I'm trying to install Libdvdcss
[02:56] <TirEoghain> Impaque, thanks for the help! I have nothing on this Ubuntu install, so might just reformat and go back to the free driver
[02:56] <TirEoghain> thanks again
[02:56] <peeps> wallydalla1, ?? it's a CD drive, what do you mean reformat
[02:56] <NemesisD> randomwalker, thanks!
[02:56] <techfiz_> do I need to do anything else on vmware guest operating system
[02:56] <Impaque> TirEoghain: sorry i wasn't of more help, good luck!
[02:56] <Ax4> mistaWAC, sudo apt-get install pptpd
[02:56] <mistaWAC> okay...thanks
[02:56] <wallydalla1> peeps:   have you ever gotten your USB drive to boot >
[02:57] <eck> mistaWAC: vpnc is a client only
[02:57] <peeps> wallydalla1, no i just got it
[02:57] <mistaWAC> grr...I thought so
[02:57] <mistaWAC> but a bunch o people said it was server side too
[02:57] <cabajgtr> Whats the best way to migrate an install from one hard drive to another when I can't connect them simultaneously ( but I can copy them to 3rd firewire drive )
[02:57] <Ax4> mistaWAC, i misunderstood your needs, use pptpd
[02:57] <eck> mistaWAC: if you want a free vpn server you might fo with openvpn
[02:57] <mistaWAC> thanks
[02:57] <wallydalla1> peeps:  if it is new, you have to install an OS before u can boot
[02:57] <debaser> Yahooadam: explain more precisely please, the computer is booted from network or the iso is in a network?
[02:57] <crimsun> southafrikanse: echo options snd-hda-intel model=lg|sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
[02:57] <mistaWAC> I thought that was for Linux-Linux connections only though?
[02:57] <Yahooadam> debaser - the iso is on a networked computer
[02:57] <kbidd> does ubuntu have a firewall enabled by default?
[02:57] <Ax4> mistaWAC, edit pptpd's config at /etc/pptpd.conf
[02:58] <eck> mistaWAC: no, it is cross platform
[02:58] <Ax4> once you haev it installed
[02:58] <Ax4> have*
[02:58] <randomwalker> Yahooadam: ssh or samba or something else?
[02:58] <eck> mistaWAC: we used to use openvpn at work, had clients on linux/windows/mac
[02:58] <debaser> Yahooadam: then you must first mount the partition holding the iso file
[02:58] <mistaWAC> I had that earlier and couldn't get any Linux-Windows help for it...will try that too
[02:58] <wallydalla1> hey,   has anyone out there found a WiFi card that is plug and play with Ubuntu.  I don't want to mess with NDIS or any command line stuff
[02:58] <mistaWAC> thanks
[02:58] <Fylk> Some one help me with: http://download.videolan.org/pub/libdvdcss/1.2.9/
[02:58] <NobleCommerc1> cabajgtr: boot from cd, copy one drive to the firewire, connect the other drive, boot again from cd, partition the new drive, migrate files?
[02:58] <Ax4> mistaWAC, well you have a few options, pick one of ours and get back to us! lol
[02:59] <Yahooadam> randomwalker - its on a windows computer, and i can see the folder in the graphical viewer thing, i just dont know how to get at it from the terminal
[02:59] <debaser> Yahooadam: ssh, telnet or rsh work but I think its not the correct solution, you should use smbmount (samba) or NFS
[02:59] <randomc0de> Fylk: trying to install libdvdcss?
[02:59] <NobleCommerc1> cabajgtr: i've never moved an install from one drive to another though, that may not work at all
[02:59] <Ax4> im sure eck's would work as well, i've only used pptpd
[02:59] <bernarderase> Anyone have a clever idea how I can get fullscreen video output to a tv (using vlc & nvidia drivers)
[02:59] <mistaWAC> so either pptpd or openvpn works?
[02:59] <peeps> wallydalla1, i am trying to boot a live cd.  FROM A CD ROM DRIVE
[02:59] <Fylk> Random: Yep.
[02:59] <Ax4> mistaWAC, try one heh
[02:59] <Yahooadam> debaser - ok - how do i do that :p
[02:59] <debaser> Yahooadam: you must mount it
[02:59] <debaser> Yahooadam: see the documentation of smbmount
[02:59] <Ax4> mistaWAC, ubuntu is about choice :p
[02:59] <VividHazE> debaser, Impaque: OMG! It isn't working yet but its saying more than "can't recognise what your on about" message, its saying Permission denied. So...what do I do now? If you have a spare minute :S
[02:59] <kbidd> does ubuntu have a software firewall enabled by default?
[02:59] <wallydalla1> peeps:  ohhh sorry.       did you set your BIOS to boot from CD as the first device.
[02:59] <randomc0de> Fylk: do you have vlc installed?
[03:00] <wizard> crimsun: do you know if my sound issue has been resolved in feisty on the released version?
[03:00] <Shaba1> Anyone here ever use snort
[03:00] <Fylk> Random: Yes
[03:00] <Impaque> VividHazE: paste your /etc/exports on pastebin pls
[03:00] <Shaba1> I wonder how it compares with IPCOP
[03:00] <peeps> wallydalla1, yeah
[03:00] <snowbert> #xbins
[03:00] <eck> kbidd: i believe it is installed, but does not run by default
[03:00] <[ithaycu] > My sound issues have not cleared yet.
[03:00] <debaser> pls I still need help
[03:00] <debaser> anyone?
[03:00] <kbidd> eck, do you know which firewall it is -- i need to verify its turned off.
[03:00] <Yahooadam> so id do 'smbmount *compname* /path/to/mount' ?
[03:00] <[ithaycu] > Of course I messing around with ffmpeg right now
[03:00] <eck> kbidd: iptables
[03:00] <Fylk> Debaser, what is wrong?
[03:00] <debaser> yes
[03:00] <southafrikanse> crimsun: options snd-hda-intel model=lg
[03:00] <wallydalla1> peeps:  ok,  now,   do you have a CD that you know is good for booting.  aka it will boot from CD in your friend's computer?
[03:00] <southafrikanse> crimsun: Now what?
[03:01] <debaser> Yahooadam: but for example //PC/shared
[03:01] <debaser> check the documentation
[03:01] <eck> kbidd: just run iptables-save and check that there is no output
[03:01] <rogue780|laptop> can someone point to some kind of tutorial on making a usplash theme?
[03:01] <VividHazE> Impaque: For the server or the client? or both?
[03:01] <debaser> Fylk: I can't boot because of a broken upgrade
[03:01] <Fylk> Arg, not good.
[03:01] <Impaque> VividHazE: server. client can mount using a single line..
[03:01] <debaser> Fylk: I want to know if I can resume the upgrade booting from a CD.
[03:02] <Impaque> VividHazE: for client, you don't use /etc/exports at all! you mount using the command-line, or, if you want it permanent, via /etc/fstab
[03:02] <debaser> Fylk: anyway I can reinstall from scratch after backing up but this is much faster.
[03:02] <stefg> !usplash
[03:02] <ubotu> To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[03:02] <ardchoille> rogue780|laptop: Does this help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto?highlight=%28usplash%29
[03:02] <crimsun> southafrikanse: reboot
[03:02] <randomc0de> Fylk: there's a script for it at /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh
[03:03] <rogue780|laptop> ardchoille, probably, thanks
[03:03] <southafrikanse> crimsun: Don't need to save anything?
[03:03] <ozymandias> how do i get ubuntu to install kde when I install ubuntu? this whole having to download a giant set of packages and then manually remove gnome thing is sort of retarded
[03:03] <peeps> wallydalla1, yeah the cd is good
[03:03] <mistaWAC> whomever was helping me before...what am I editing after downloading pptpd and openvpn?
[03:03] <Fylk> Random, how do I run that?
[03:03] <wallydalla1> ok, well goodnight everyone.   this was an interestng first time.    I wish there was better support for Wireless PCI cards.   Or I wish there was a list of cards that worked 100% PnP.
[03:03] <southafrikanse> crimsun: I will have sound afterwards?
[03:03] <VividHazE> Impaque: Ok, silly me :S  Here is my /etc/exports http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16951
[03:03] <boss> ozymandias: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[03:03] <debaser> ozymandias: download kubuntu
[03:03] <ozymandias> no, seriously
[03:03] <stefg> !kubuntu | ozymandias
[03:03] <ubotu> ozymandias: Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[03:03] <debaser> boss: he's just asking not to do that
[03:03] <xtknight> how do i rebuild initrd?
[03:03] <eck> mistaWAC: with openvpn you will want to read the documentation at openvpn.net, there are a lot of ways to configure your vpn
[03:03] <debaser> mkinitrd
[03:04] <mistaWAC> okay
[03:04] <randomwalker> debaser: i've never tried this, but try booting from cd, mounting your / directory, removing the cd's /bin and /usr/bin from your $PATH and replacing them with the /bin and /usr/bin on the hosed system, and run apt-get. hopefully it'll be as if you're running on the old system
[03:04] <southafrikanse> crimsun: reboot where? Put that on the terminal?
[03:04] <mistaWAC> thanks a lot
[03:04] <cabajgtr> Should I be able to Rsync one feisty install over a messed up install to fix it?
[03:04] <Impaque> VividHazE: and the IP of the client machine is..?
[03:04] <debaser> randomwalker: it's better to do a chroot, isn't it?
[03:04] <randomc0de> Fylk: open a terminal, type "sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh", enter your passwork when prompted
[03:04] <VividHazE> Impaque: <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:04] <stefg> cabajgtr: interesting experiment... let me know of the resukts :-)
[03:04] <randomwalker> debaser: yeah, good idea
[03:05] <kbrooks> So...
[03:05] <Impaque> VividHazE: and you're trying to mount the first exported dir to no avail?
[03:05] <ozymandias> no, seriously. I would like a serious answer to this, not "download a different distro/iso" that seems.... like a stupid -non-solution
[03:05] <debaser> I guess I'll try
[03:05] <Yahooadam> SMB connection failed
[03:05] <debaser> I did it to check logs but I didn't try to run upgrade-manager
[03:05] <Yahooadam> :S
[03:05] <kbrooks> I need sensible answers for a few questions for #ubuntu-trivia
[03:05] <eck> cabajgtr: there are a few files you would want to not copy over
[03:05] <eck> cabajgtr: e.g. ssh keys
[03:05] <cabajgtr> Well, I tried it, and it still booted into the old install
[03:05] <Ax4> mistaWAC, if you installed pptpd, the config will be located in /etc at /etc/pptpd.conf - you can edit it in terminal by running the command 'sudo nano -w /etc/pptpd.conf' or using the GTK text editor by 'sudo gedit /etc/pptpd.conf'
[03:05] <Fylk> Random: still no good.
[03:05] <hydrozen> Hi. Just wondering... I just upgraded to feisty from edgy... and when I enable desktop effects (compiz), window decorations don't work. Is there a quick fix for this????
[03:05] <Yahooadam> it asks me to type a password but wont accept what i put in .....
[03:06] <Morpheus_74>  Can anyone help me with a display issue?
[03:06] <Morpheus_74>  I cannot get the refresh rate to 85 Hz, when scrolling with my mouse it is choppy, and when I go to tty1,2,3,... the font is so large that I cannot see what I'm typing.
[03:06] <stefg> ozymandias: err, things are as they are. this is the only answer possible
[03:06] <kbrooks> ozymandias, what do u wanna do
[03:06] <debaser> Yahooadam: check samba services are running and configured correctly (especially wiindows group) and at last check wiring
[03:06] <ozymandias> apt-get install kde has just taken longer than the install did in the first place
[03:06] <brunoUT> yo peeps....i am trying to play the game tremulous...but when the game starts i can not see anything and its all distorted....any ideas?
[03:06] <stefg> !slow
[03:06] <ubotu> The Ubuntu repositories and ISO mirrors are currently under heavy load due to the release of !Feisty. Please consider using !torrents to download ISO images, and be patient with APT updates.
[03:06] <randomc0de> how can I force firefox to use the non-msttcorefonts?
[03:06] <symtab> can anyone give me a link where i can file bug reports?
[03:06] <wastrel> !bugs > symtab
[03:06] <Stormx2> How do I un-gz a file? Currently it is README.gz
[03:06] <kbrooks> ozymandias, what do u wanna do < cooperate pls
[03:06] <VividHazE> Impaque: Yup, well what command should I be entering?  Here is what I have been writing: sudo mount <IP_ADDRESS>:/home/vividhaze/files /file
[03:07] <brunoUT> yo peeps....i am trying to play the game tremulous...but when the game starts i can not see anything and its all distorted....any ideas?
[03:07] <kubuntu_usr> ozymandias: that is so true
[03:07] <randomwalker> Stormx2: gunzip filename
[03:07] <kbrooks> Stormx2,gunzip
[03:07] <Impaque> Stormx2: zless README.gz
[03:07] <ozymandias> kbrooks i would like a serious answer on how I can use the install disk I have to install a desktop enviroment like KDE initially, so I dont have to apt-get install kde, and then apt-get remove all teh useless pieces of gnome
[03:07] <yell0w> hey folks, how do i find out what's running on a port ?
[03:07] <randomc0de> anyone having trouble with accessing the repository should find a mirror and change apt to use that, I switched to the easynews mirror and my speeds went up by a factor of 10
[03:07] <debaser> Stormx2: zcat README.gz
[03:07] <VividHazE> Impaque: I wrote file instead of files there, but it still says the same permission denied
[03:07] <southafrikanse> crimsun: You're still here?
[03:07] <Stormx2> Got it, thanks all
[03:07] <Impaque> yell0w: netstat -anp | grep PORTNUMBER
[03:07] <eck> randomwalker: you would have to set firefox to ignore the fonts that sites specify altogether, if a site specifies a MS font in the css then that is the font that firefox will use
[03:08] <Stormx2> debaser: Is your name a reference to the pixies song?
[03:08] <yell0w> tx Impaque
[03:08] <debaser> yell0w: nmap
[03:08] <Impaque> yell0w: np
[03:08] <kubuntu_usr> funny is how a upgrade from 6.06 takes longer and downloads more packages than the install itself o_O
[03:08] <randomwalker> eck: that wasn't me :)
[03:08] <debaser> Stormx2: yes man!
[03:08] <eck> oops
[03:08] <hydrozen> Hi. Just wondering... I just upgraded to feisty from edgy... and when I enable desktop effects (compiz), window decorations don't work. Is there a quick fix for this????
[03:08] <eck> randomc0de:
[03:08] <debaser> Stormx2: from Doolitle
[03:08] <stefg> ozymandias: are you trolling?
[03:08] <ozymandias> downloading KDE packages during install is acceptable, downloading a second 700 MB iso to do something trivial like this is not
[03:08] <kbrooks> ozymandias, we are trying to seriously aswer
[03:08] <debaser> Stormx2: besides, I think it's cool
[03:08] <Stormx2> debaser: Great album :)
[03:08] <m4rk> kooeeeeeee
[03:08] <randomc0de> eck: why was it using the non-MS font before then?
[03:08] <Stormx2> Ima listen to it now
[03:08] <debaser> Stormx2: GREAT ALBUM!
[03:09] <brunoUT> yo peeps....i am trying to play the game tremulous...but when the game starts i can not see anything and its all distorted....any ideas?
[03:09] <Nick_Hill> If I change the kernel boot parameters in /etc/grub/menu.lst, when the kernel updates, the new line doesn't have the parameter. Can I make a change elsewhere so that the update system adds the boot parameter?
[03:09] <eck> randomc0de: because there are fallback fonts in the css
[03:09] <kbrooks> stefg, i wonder if he is cooperating at all
[03:09] <wastrel> ozymandias:  the ubuntu install disk doesn't contain kde packages.  you need the kubuntu install disk for that.
[03:09] <eck> randomc0de: and there is a default font as well
[03:09] <kbrooks> !repeat | brunoUT
[03:09] <ubotu> brunoUT: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[03:09] <eck> randomc0de: look at the css for the page you are viewing
[03:09] <Impaque> VividHazE: hmmm..
[03:09] <randomc0de> eck: that makes sense, but is very annoyting
[03:09] <VividHazE> Impaque: I'm using DHCP for my network would that cause a problem?
[03:09] <yell0w> Impaque, it says list of process ids must follow p, so throw p out ?
[03:09] <wastrel> ozymandias:  so the choice is , download the kubuntu iso or install kubuntu-desktop
[03:09] <Stormx2> debaser: I can play "Here comes your man" on guitar. But anyway this is all ot and I've got work to do ;)
[03:09] <brunoUT> thanks kbrooks
[03:09] <brunoUT> people dont scroll up looking for question
[03:09] <brunoUT> genious
[03:09] <zipped20x> ok so i'm new on this whole unbuntu linux stuff and my guru just left me so i'm going to be asking ALOT of questions for a little bit
[03:09] <kbrooks> brunoUT, dont rant
[03:09] <symtab> thanks
[03:10] <zipped20x> so just let me know when i get on your nerves lol
[03:10] <Fylk> I got DVDs work, just not with menus
[03:10] <debaser> Stormx2: great!
[03:10] <brunoUT> kbrooks: STOP talking to me
[03:10] <Stormx2> brunoUT: How did you install the game?
[03:10] <Impaque> yell0w: sorry, just add t for TCP or u for UDP
[03:10] <brunoUT> yes i did storm
[03:10] <randomc0de> Fylk: check the latest version of libdvdread is installed, libdvdread3 iirc
[03:10] <eck> randomc0de: that's why when you make a website you should just choose a font family like "sans" rather than forcing your ugly fonts on people :-)
[03:10] <kbrooks> brunoUT, dont order me around :-)
[03:10] <brunoUT> but its all messed up graphically
[03:10] <southafrikanse> Is crimsun still here?
[03:10] <ozymandias> wastrel i have an active net connection during install though, why download a 700meg iso rather than the 10 meg of kde packages? and even if i install it after i install the image, i still haev to deal with gnome being installed, as i was never givien an option during the install to NOT install gnome.
[03:10] <Fylk> iirc?
[03:10] <debaser> Stormx2: a friend has a bass and I could play it (Here Comes your man)
[03:10] <Stormx2> brunoUT: How.
[03:10] <Impaque> yell0w: f.e. netstat -anpt | grep 22
[03:10] <kbrooks> ozymandias, kubuntu _does not_ total 10 mb
[03:10] <feisty-beginner> I have just created a local feisty repository using apt-mirror and launched it on my local server using apache.  other machine are able to access this local repository via apt.  However when I tried to netboot via http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz this boot image fails to retrieve from my local repository despite it can access the offic
[03:10] <feisty-beginner> ial one, what's wrong with my local repository?
[03:10] <brunoUT> through apt-get install tremulous
[03:10] <ardchoille> Fylk: iirc = If I Remember Correctly
[03:11] <brunoUT> Stormx2: through apt-get install
[03:11] <kbrooks> ozymandias, it in fact is much bigger
[03:11] <Impaque> yell0w: or even better netstat -anpt | grep :22
[03:11] <ozymandias> as i now have to remove all these silly gnome packages that are wasting disk space
[03:11] <Stormx2> debaser: I'm starting a band with this girl I know, and she's a big pixies fan. I've sung "Monkey gone to heaven" live with my friend's band
[03:11] <wastrel> ozymandias:  that's now how the installer works.
[03:11] <randomc0de> eck: the weird part was that I moved the directories to hide the fonts from firefox, and it still used them
[03:11] <VividHazE> Impaque: Am I screwed then, I was hoping to have all my files on the one computer so the other computers and laptops in the house could read it from them :(
[03:11] <ozymandias> wastrel so where is teh bugzilla to report that to?
[03:11] <Impaque> VividHazE: the only thing that comes to mind is that the user/group is preventing from mounting
[03:11] <VividHazE> I thought this network stuff would be easy enough, gah!
[03:11] <NemesisD> hi guys, when upgrading to feisty, should I use: apt-get dist-upgrade or apt-get upgrade?
[03:11] <Impaque> VividHazE: you can try doing this:
[03:11] <wastrel> !launchpad > ozymandias
[03:12] <debaser> Stormx2: I wish I could say something like that, but I don't know much people interested in rock music because I am a classical guitar player.
[03:12] <stefg> !upgrade | NemesisD
[03:12] <ubotu> NemesisD: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[03:12] <randomc0de> Fylk: also, go to File->Open Disc in VLC, and you can find options for DVD (With Menus) and DVD (No Menus)
[03:12] <Impaque> VividHazE: sec, i'll post the fix on pastebin.. hold on
[03:12] <Ax4> it's my opinion that a fresh install is always the best
[03:12] <brunoUT> Stormx2: through apt-get install tremulous
[03:12] <VividHazE> k
[03:12] <zipped20x> so is the reason my update files failing because everyone's updating thier files as well?
[03:12] <Fylk> Yeah, menus didn't ever open.
[03:12] <Stormx2> brunoUT: File a bug.
[03:12] <yell0w> Impaque, uhm that doesn't give me any info about which process it is
[03:12] <stefg> feisty-beginner: have you adapted your /etc/apt/sources.list, so that it point to your local repo?
[03:12] <Fylk> Wait!! it worked!
[03:12] <Shadow_X> hey guys I got a question about SYNAPTIC, so u SPM experts listen up
[03:12] <brunoUT> ummm...no?
[03:12] <debaser> Stormx2: but I listen to a lot of music and try to help friends doing a rock band. I hope it works someday, and I wish luck for your project
[03:13] <hydrozen> Hi. Just wondering... I just upgraded to feisty from edgy... and when I enable desktop effects (compiz), window decorations don't work. Is there a quick fix for this????
[03:13] <Stormx2> debaser: Ah. I've been playing since christmas... just learning chords and the odd tab... Tis fun ;)
[03:13] <randomc0de> /Fylk: give VLC a minute on commercial DVD's too - brute-force cracking that encryption key is tough!
[03:13] <feisty-beginner> stefg: yes, in the installer ,I explicitly pointed to my local repository
[03:13] <Impaque> VividHazE: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16954/
[03:13] <Shadow_X> please dont ask me to explain the whole reason I need this, but how can I FORCE Synaptic to redownload packages for reinstallation, even if it says it already has them?
[03:13] <Fylk> I love VLC.
[03:13] <VividHazE> Impaque: Trying now
[03:13] <debaser> Stormx2: very good, it's quite a great achievement for that short time.
[03:13] <brunoUT> how can i set VLC as my default player for DVDs....when i put a DVD in gay totem always comes up and cant play it
[03:14] <dunstabulos_> i have installed swat, do i need xinetd to run it?
[03:14] <Impaque> yell0w: it does. if you have sshd running, it will show the PID of the process and name (sshd)
[03:14] <sanityx> Is there a way to mount bin or cue files without burning them
[03:14] <Stormx2> debaser: You learn quick if you enjoy what you play. What kind of things do you play? I know next to nothing about classical guitar..
[03:14] <stefg> !info cdemu
[03:14] <eric> Shadow_X: Try apt-get clean. That will clear out your cached downloads.
[03:14] <ubotu> Package cdemu does not exist in feisty
[03:14] <randomc0de> brunoUT: System->Preferences->Removable Drives and Media
[03:14] <Stormx2> sanityx: Yeah. but I forget >.<
[03:14] <yell0w> Impaque, it just says tcp
[03:15] <sanityx> I could run daemon tools in wine :-P
[03:15] <randomc0de> brunoUT: Multimedia Tab
[03:15] <stefg> sanityx: there's a program called cdemu to do that. It's not in the repos, so google for it
[03:15] <Shadow_X> please dont ask me to explain the whole reason I need this, but how can I FORCE Synaptic to redownload packages for reinstallation, even if it says it already has them?
[03:15] <witless> so, am i basically screwed with Desktop Effects until nvidia fixes their driver?
[03:15] <Impaque> yell0w: you must run as root: sudo netstat -anpt
[03:15] <debaser> Stormx2: I'm studying and I'm actually playing studios of Giuliani, Villa-Lobos, Ponce and Brouwer
[03:15] <brunoUT> randomcode: thanks i just found it
[03:15] <Stormx2> Shadow_X: I think you can make apt-get do that.
[03:15] <Stormx2> Shadow_X: Have a look at the man page
[03:15] <Impaque> yell0w: are you still not getting the info, even that way?
[03:15] <sanityx> i dont like to install non repo stuff
[03:15] <debaser> Stormx2: you can listen somethings at sky.fm
[03:16] <randomc0de> witless: I've been using the SVN/experimental repository for months now and it works fine, switching to it is a bit of a pain, but not impossible
[03:16] <stefg> sanityx: then forget it
[03:16] <sanityx> mm
[03:16] <brunoUT> randomc0de: where is VLC player stored by default?
[03:16] <randomc0de> witless: command line is pretty much required though
[03:16] <yell0w> Impaque, ok, i  got it, portmap
[03:16] <yell0w> Impaque, now how should i disable portmap ?
[03:16] <randomc0de> brunoUT: stored? like the executable that you actually run?
[03:16] <alienseer23> I am looking for help trying to set up lirc, I really don't know what to do, is there a good how to?
[03:16] <yell0w> lol
[03:16] <Stormx2> debaser: I've never been much of a fan of the whole classical music thing, though as I get older I can really see it as something of an art. Peter and the wolf is about the closest I got, heh. Oh, and "A Hawk And A Hacksaw"
[03:16] <brunoUT> randomc0de: yes sir thats correct
[03:16] <randomc0de> brunoUT: you can just put "vlc" in the box instead of totem
[03:16] <brunoUT> word
[03:16] <brunoUT> thanks
[03:16] <witless> randomc0de: is there some kind of fix to the driver in SVN?
[03:16] <zipped20x> so nearly ALL of my update files are failing on me
[03:17] <randomc0de> witless: you're having trouble with the window decorator?
[03:17] <zipped20x> why is that?
[03:17] <stefg> sanityx: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Mount_ISO_script
[03:17] <randomc0de> witless: and the nvidia proprietary driver?
[03:17] <Jump86> finally got feisty upgrade to work.. time to showoff my desktop: http://img207.imageshack.us/img207/5020/screenshot100ql9.png
[03:17] <sanityx> cool
[03:17] <Kevin> hello
[03:17] <debaser> Stormx2: I don't really enjoy classical music as much as prog rock, but it's fun to play it and I think it's a good step before playing prog rock, space rock or things like that
[03:17] <eck> zipped20x: how do you mean failing?
[03:17] <Impaque> yell0w: sudo /etc/init.d/portmap stop
[03:18] <Kevin> how do i shutdown x
[03:18] <witless> randomc0de: actually the biggest problem is that when i switch away from my desktop (eg alt-f1 into terminal) and them come back, i see nothign but a black screen and the mouse pointer (which i can move around)
[03:18] <Impaque> yell0w: but it will break nfs (if you have some dirs mounted etc.)
[03:18] <Leftmost> Is there a package with restricted modules that can be compiled for/used with a custom-rolled kernel?
[03:18] <brunoUT> Jump86:  that is so tight.....how did u get all that?
[03:18] <randomwalker> Jump86: is that gdesklets?
[03:18] <VividHazE> Impaque: That didn't work either, but I found out that if I type the su command and enter my root password it says it won't let me too, is that normal?  When I enter the password for sudo it works ok
[03:18] <ardchoille> Kevin: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[03:18] <yell0w> Impaque, sorry, i mean remove it from booting ?
[03:18] <brunoUT> Jump86:  with the MAC OS icons on top
[03:18] <corevette> what is everyone's favorite linux game?
[03:18] <Kevin> ardchoille, thankyou
[03:18] <Jump86> brunoUT, it's gdesklets, yes
[03:18] <Opiate> Jump86:  Does Feisty look like MAC OS freshly installed or is that a theme of some sort ?
[03:19] <brunoUT> Jump86:  what is that?
[03:19] <Jump86> OpenTokix, it's Kore Suite + Gdesklets
[03:19] <randomc0de> witless: nvidia proprietary driver?
[03:19] <Ax4> hey guys, how do i find the path to open ssl?
[03:19] <debaser> Stormx2: I actually enjoy any music which is about more than selling. That's rock, prog rock, jazz, blues, tango, and a great and large etc
[03:19] <Impaque> VividHazE: yes, it's normal for ubuntu. ubuntu uses sudo instead of su
[03:19] <Stormx2> debaser: My friend is a big prog rock fan... well actually I'm not sure. my knowledge of genres goes blurry with alt/prog. I guess you're talking about 20 minute songs with offbeat rhythms?
[03:19] <zipped20x> eck: i mean almost ALL of the files that's downloading says failed
[03:19] <witless> randomc0de: yes
[03:19] <Jump86> brunoUT, sudo apt-get install gdesklets
[03:19] <Lam_> what file do i put a command into to have it run at startup?
[03:19] <randomc0de> witless: try installing and running beryl-manager
[03:19] <Impaque> VividHazE: sudo uses your user password, while su uses root password, which is disabled by default
[03:19] <brunoUT> Jump86:  is that wheere u get the weather from too?
[03:19] <witless> hmm ok
[03:19] <VividHazE> Impaque: Ok thanks.  So am I screwed for networking then? :S
[03:20] <eck> zipped20x: i think it is just because the servers are slow right now
[03:20] <witless> i thought that was actually less stable than "desktop effects"
[03:20] <Impaque> VividHazE: what do you mean?
[03:20] <Impaque> VividHazE: btw did that line work?
[03:20] <debaser> Stormx2: well, there's a JethroTull disc called "Thick as a Brick" which has one track, 42 minutes long, and it's just orgasmic.
[03:20] <Jump86> brunoUT, weather is an app for gdesklets for not a default one.. i had to get it from some other website.. google for "goodweather gdesklets" and youll find it
[03:20] <eck> zipped20x: with the feisty release, and all
[03:20] <zipped20x> eck: so should i wait and if so how long?
[03:20] <randomc0de> witless: I'm not sure what they've done with the "desktop effects" but the amount of options there are far too few for me
[03:20] <VividHazE> Impaque:  No it didn't work, same Permission Denied error. Does it make a difference the client is a laptop using Wireless?
[03:20] <brunoUT> Jump86:  sounds good
[03:20] <tgm4883_> how do you change a networking device from eth1 to eth0?
[03:21] <Impaque> VividHazE: no
[03:21] <debaser> Stormx2: but Pink Floyd, for example, is a high quality and known prog rock band, with offbeat rhythms
[03:21] <eck> zipped20x: I'd just let it run in the background... you can also hold out a few days until things clear up
[03:21] <corevette> what are some good linux games
[03:21] <zipped20x> eck: so should i wait and if so how long?
[03:21] <debaser> Stormx2: Peter Gabriel is also very good
[03:21] <VividHazE> Impaque: Being able to transfer files across my network is nearly the only thing that doesn't work for me, its not an essential thing, but its pretty cool and so annoying it doesn't work
[03:21] <Fin> corvette: armagetron advanced and tux racer are two free good ones, you can go buy doom or something if you want though
[03:21] <Kevin> ardchoille. how to I get to comand line now, its just got a blinken cursor after *running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local)
[03:22] <dimeotane> fin: don't forget tremulous
[03:22] <ardchoille> Kevin: CNTRL+ALT+F2  (or F3, F4, F5, F6)
[03:22] <zipped20x> eck: yea but letting it run in the backround (being on dial-up) wouldn't almost all of them fail?
[03:22] <debaser> ardchille: you should call "control" key CTRL
[03:22] <vik> I've just upgraded from an older ubuntu via backup and re-install, and I want to get my evolution settings back. I have all of the dot files from the home folder, and have copied .evolution and .gconf/apps/evolution, but when i start it up it still wants to go through the setup process. Any ideas?
[03:22] <Fin> dimeotane: never heard of that one to be honest *downloads*
[03:22] <VividHazE> Impaque: And I know it isn't linux fault its my fault, if a linux expert were right here it would probably be working in 10 seconds, lol.  Anyway if you've no more advice I'll head on here, thanks for the time you spent trying.
[03:23] <Kevin> ardchoille thanks again
[03:23] <ardchoille> debaser: Ah, yes, thanks.
[03:23] <dimeotane> corevette: have you tried tremulous yet? it's the crown jewel of ubuntu games if you ask me
[03:23] <ardchoille> Kevin: You're welcome :)
[03:23] <Stormx2> debaser: Pink Floyd are great heh. I love a lot of their stuff.
[03:23] <holycow> don't forget your .evolution folder too
[03:23] <Impaque> VividHazE: is nfs service started and all? is portmap started on the client? gimme some logs
[03:23] <corevette> yes i have dimeotane...doesn't have enough strategy for me
[03:23] <eck> zipped20x: the ones that are successful will go somewhere in /var and when you run apt again you won't have to download them again
[03:23] <ardchoille> !ot
[03:23] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[03:23] <VividHazE> Impaque: Gimmie some commands to get those logs, or locations or something :S
[03:23] <kkathman> I just installed 7.04 but have no sound - but it defaulted to the onboard rather than the SB live...do I need to restart the sound daemon ?
[03:23] <dauoalagio2> hello i just tried installing feisty but came up with an error, so i rebooted and now my computer gets past grub and shows KUBUNTU in big letters with a progress bar but the progress bar doesn't move and after a little while it opens busybox or something.  some command line - don't remember the name.  any ideas?
[03:24] <Ax4> hey guys, how do i find the path to open ssl?
[03:24] <eck> zipped20x: although i guess if nearly all of them are failing you might as well just hold out
[03:24] <dimeotane> corevette: the strategy is in the base layout... try being a builder
[03:24] <debaser> Stormx2: they're just great, I have the entire discography, I'm a great fun and I recently had alucinations in a concert of Dark Side of the moon of Roger Waters, jaja, really great
[03:24] <owh> Has anyone got any suggestions on where I go to learn more about how iocharsets work? Specifically, I'm trying to learn how it relates to file system mounting.
[03:24] <eck> Ax4: what component of openssl?
[03:24] <zipped20x> eck: for a day or two or four?
[03:24] <debaser> Ax2: try something like pkg-config
[03:24] <Impaque> VividHazE: sudo tail -f /var/log/messages while mounting, it should show the error
[03:24] <kkathman> !sound
[03:24] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[03:24] <corevette> dimeotane: have you ever played 'true combate : elite'    thats my personal favorite
[03:25] <Stormx2> debaser: heh. I haven't got their full discography. I only have Piper at the gates of dawn, dark side of the moon and the wall
[03:25] <Ax4> eck im trying to configure ezbounce, ./configure --with-ssl[=PATH]
[03:25] <PauloZanoni_> hi guys! update-manager is NOT telling me that there is a a newer version... there are no buttons to click! how to I tell it i want to upgrade?
[03:25] <eck> zipped20x: i really have no idea -- i'd just try later in the week
[03:25] <Alon_005> I'm having a problem with sound. I can't hear any sound.
[03:25] <eck> Ax4: just --with-ssl should work
[03:25] <Ax4> eck, just not sure what path they want, i've tried a couple
[03:25] <ardchoille> Stormx2: Please take that to #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:25] <NemesisD> randomwalker, is there another command to show all the hard drives? i remember one command I used before shows info on the drives as well as the volumes
[03:25] <eck> Ax4: if you have the dev libraries of course
[03:25] <musya> anybody know of a program like winamp?
[03:25] <Ax4> eck, ok i'll try sec
[03:25] <ardchoille> musya: xmms
[03:25] <delire> musya: xmms
[03:25] <Kevin> ardchoille, you know anything about nvidia graphics drivers?
[03:25] <eck> Ax4: i'm not sure why configure does that, but i always just leave it blank and it works
[03:25] <Fin> corevette, dimeotane: railroad tycoon 2 is pretty damn good too :P
[03:25] <stefg> !info xmms | musya
[03:25] <ubotu> musya: xmms: Versatile X audio player. In component main, is optional.  It seems to piss my family off ;)
[03:26] <vik> My windows partition appears on the desktop as 'sda3'. Is there any way to change the display name?
[03:26] <Alon_005> How do I make it so that I can hear sounds?
[03:26] <Stormx2> debaser: not the craziest psychedelia I've heard heh.
[03:26] <owh> vik: Change the label.
[03:26] <debaser> Stormx2: actually the name of their first disc comes from "The Wind in the Willows". Syd Barret was insane, just as you said, but did something good.
[03:26] <randomwalker> NemesisD: or fdisk -l
[03:26] <zipped20x> eck: does the updates affect anything i do whether it's online or offline?
[03:26] <vik> owh: thnx
[03:26] <Fin> Alon_005: have you configured your sound card?
[03:26] <randomwalker> NemesisD: or gparted with a gui
[03:26] <Alon_005> How do I do that?
[03:27] <Stormx2> debaser: Twasn't their first disc ;)
[03:27] <NemesisD> randomwalker, bingo, that fdisk -l, i think that was it
[03:27] <Kevin> ardchoille, I just tried to install, and it said : Error, you do not appear to have libc header files installed on your system. Please install your distro's libc development package
[03:27] <eck> zipped20x: what do you mean?
[03:27] <Fin> Alon_005: system - preferances - sound

[03:28] <Fin> Alon_005: test if its working or not, and if you hear nothing, check it isnt muted

[03:28] <debaser> Stormx2: ok!
[03:28] <tom_> hey can someone help me please?
[03:28] <vik> owh: how does one change an ntfs label?
[03:28] <orange1> where can i find a changelog for feisty?

[03:28] <Kevin> ardchoille, that for me?
[03:28] <rimtech> The instructions on the ubuntu wiki is not clear.... it states to install flashplugin-nonfree but this package doesn't exist in the repositories for feisty fawn
[03:28] <orange1> !changelog
[03:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about changelog - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:28] <Kevin> ok thanks
[03:28] <Fin> Alon_005: if you're using the intel-hda chipset on a laptop (which is the only one ive ever seen that doesnt work out of the box) i can help you fix it :P

[03:28] <Jordan_U_> orange1, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/704tour ?
[03:29] <rimtech> jughead: yeah, flash for firefox
[03:29] <eck> Ax4: you haven't installed build-essentail
[03:29] <orange1> Jordan_U_: thanks
[03:29] <Fujitsu> orange1: It's about 30MiB, and is at https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/feisty-changes/
[03:29] <wastrel> zipped20x:  no, but the only updates are for security so it's good to install them.
[03:29] <wastrel> (by default anyway)
[03:29] <Alon_005> Fin:  I'm using a desktop computer.
[03:29] <Fujitsu> orange1: It's probably not what you wanted, though. A little detailed.
[03:29] <eck> zipped20x: the updates are only security fixes
[03:29] <tom_> My computer is running very choppy is there anyway to put shit back to defualt or should I just reinstall fiesty for the 4th time or just I just go back to windows and get rid of the problems that a linux has
[03:29] <jughead> rimtech, go to the adobe website and download the tar.gz installer.  It's extremely easy
[03:29] <rimtech> jughead: trying to install flash player for mozilla firefox under feisty fawn
[03:29] <Alon_005> Fin:  I still don't hear any sound, and I made sure that it wasn't muted.
[03:29] <rimtech> jughead: oh, just do it manually?
[03:29] <Fujitsu> eck: Not necessarily. Other important bugs are fixed too...
[03:29] <rimtech> jughead oh, ok
[03:29] <Ax4> eck, oh silly me, lmao
[03:29] <sh00t1> any how to's to install RealMagic DVD Decoder Card on ubuntu 6.10
[03:29] <Jordan_U_> sh00t1, excuse my curiosity. What does a DVD decoder card do ?
[03:29] <jughead> rimtech, I just installed feisty on my desktop and laptop and it's that easy
[03:30] <Fujitsu> rimtech: Install flashplugin-nonfree in Synaptic.

[03:30] <eck> Ax4: you'll probably need a ton of dev libraries too
[03:30] <orange1> Fujitsu: i want to see if any changes happened for broadcom wifi support
[03:30] <zipped20x> oh
[03:30] <Fin> Alon_005:  Ah right, try going into the hardware manager, finding your chipset, then searching linuxquestions or the ubuntu forums for help
[03:30] <sh00t1> take the decoding load off the CPU
[03:30] <zipped20x> ok
[03:30] <zipped20x> so it wont affect what i do all that much?
[03:30] <Fujitsu> zipped20x: The upgrades are all thoroughly tested, so no.
[03:30] <jughead> rimtech, yeah, I guess it's manual but when you run the installer there are only 2 steps then you're done
[03:30] <GionnyBoss> vik: I have a terminal command "ntfslabel" that does what you want. If I remember right, I installed a package that was called something like "ntfsprogr"... try it
[03:31] <sh00t1> any how to's to install RealMagic DVD Decoder Card on ubuntu 6.10 em3800 chipset
[03:31] <Alon_005> Fin:  I can't seem to find the Hardware Manager.
[03:31] <Ax4> eck, yea leaving the path blanked prevented completion of the configure script
[03:31] <rimtech> jughead i ran the installer.... nothing popped up
[03:31] <vik> GionnyBoss: will try, thanks
[03:31] <Ax4> eck, it doesn't see openssl unfortunately :\
[03:31] <Fujitsu> Alon_005: System->Preferences->Hardware Information
[03:31] <Fin> Alon_005:  System - preferances - hardware information
[03:31] <zipped20x> ok, that's reassuring
[03:31] <rimtech> jughead nevermind
[03:31] <VividHazE> Impaque: Sorry it took so long, does this help any? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16955/
[03:31] <masjito-> helppppp plsssssssssss
[03:31] <Pelo> sh00t1,   try searching the forum
[03:31] <Fujitsu> zipped20x: They're called stable for a reason :)
[03:31] <sh00t1> i have

[03:31] <ubotu> masjito-: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[03:31] <Alon_005> Fin:  It's not there. I'm using Ubuntu 6.06 by the way.
[03:32] <Fujitsu> Hm, that didn't work.
[03:32] <Pelo> masjito-,  begging doesn'T do as much as asking an actualy question
[03:32] <darkram> Question, when getting a binary should I get the GTK 1.2 or GTK 2 version using 7.04?
[03:32] <eck> Ax4: did you install the openssl development libraries?
[03:32] <orange1> Fujitsu: so this would be the place to look  on specific hardware support that may have been added
[03:32] <Fujitsu> Alon_005: System->Administration->Device Manager or so. Maybe under preferences.
[03:32] <zipped20x> lol like i said earlier i'm still new to all this *nix stuff
[03:32] <Ax4> Alon_005, you could also do "lspci -v | grep Audio"
[03:32] <eck> darkram: gtk2
[03:32] <Pelo> darkram,   gtk 2
[03:32] <Kix> darkram: 2,
[03:32] <Alon_005> Fin:  I have no idea what that is.
[03:32] <zipped20x> i know only what i've read in *nix for dummies
[03:32] <masjito-> I got problem with my wifi ( chipset atheros )
[03:32] <darkram> thanks
[03:33] <masjito-> low signal
[03:33] <Pelo> !wireless > masjito-   check your pm
[03:33] <GionnyBoss> tom_: you can't just say that linux has got problems... Linux is the kernel and application that runs on this kernel. If you're not happy with a distro or if you can't configure your distro right, it's another matter. You can't just say that linux has problems
[03:33] <debaser> about my problem: update-manager throws a segmentation fault. It seems it can't properly connect to X server. I'll try copying /tmp files and things like that
[03:33] <Fin> Alon_005: What what is? just scroll down until you see something related to audio in the hardware manager (or device manager etc.)
[03:34] <sh00t1> any how to's to install RealMagic DVD Decoder Card on ubuntu 6.10 em3800 chipset
[03:34] <Ax4> eck, libssl-dev ?
[03:34] <eck> Ax4: i believe so
[03:34] <Ax4> k :)
[03:34] <justin64> anybody know how to fix this problem: "hdb: drive not ready for command"?
[03:34] <Alon_005> Fin:  Well, in the Device Manager at the bottom I see something that says "AT-style speaker sound"
[03:34] <Pelo> sh00t1,   try searching the forum
[03:34] <Ax4> eck, god i love prebuilt binaries at a time like this heh
[03:34] <WrektAA> I got everything working within Ubuntu! Except sound. I can't use my Creative Sound Blaster Live! 24bit sound card. Currently i'm using my Realtek sound card. Right now i'm listening to my music and it's TOO BASSey. Like it's all heavy, it their a way to lower that in any way?
[03:34] <Fujitsu> Ax4: What are you trying to compile?
[03:35] <GionnyBoss> justin64: which command were you trying? which program is this error output of?
[03:35] <dauoalagio2> i'm getting this error and have no idea what to do http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=392854
[03:35] <Fin> Alon_005:  That should be it, just click on it and find a chipset of some sort, then search for it in the ubuntuforums or linuxquestions
[03:35] <Ax4> Fujitsu, ezbounce
[03:35] <Pelo> WrektAA,   try  running alsamixer from the terminal , play around with those it might help
[03:35] <Ax4> Fujitsu, having some openssl path resolution problems heh
[03:35] <Fin> Alon_005:  Updating ALSA sometimes also works
[03:35] <Fujitsu> Ax4: Ensure you have libssl-dev installed.
[03:36] <Ax4> Fujitsu, yup workin on that now
[03:36] <Alon_005> Fin:  So, I click on "Ubuntu Device Database"?
[03:36] <Fin> Alon_005:  No, that will just do a series of tests to report your hardwares compatibility
[03:36] <Ax4> eck, Fujitsu , libssl-dev did the trick! :)
[03:36] <Fujitsu> Ax4: Great :)
[03:36] <Fin> Alon_005:  you need to find its chipset
[03:36] <Ax4> now i can 'make' this sucker :p
[03:36] <debaser> I think I'll have to perform a complete reinstall
[03:36] <Ax4> finally
[03:37] <justin64> GionnyBoss: it outputs on all the consoles (ctrl-alt-f1,....) constantly
[03:37] <Fujitsu> debaser: Why?
[03:37] <WrektAA> I typed [Alsamixer]  in the terminal but it shows a black screen with weird color bars, how do I play around with it?
[03:37] <megafauna> hey, i downloaded the iso and burnt it. there wasn't an upgrade button, just plain install
[03:37] <Intangir> i just got fiesty, the wifi setings stuff is alot different, it doesnt seem to work either!
[03:37] <Alon_005> Fin: How do I find the chipset?
[03:37] <Korvak> Greetings, I installed an nVIDIA driver and have it in my restricted driver's manager. The nVIDIA logo now shows when I boot, but my max screen resolution is limited to 1024 x 768. How can I resolve this issue?
[03:37] <Fin> WrektAA: Use tab, space and enter
[03:37] <Fujitsu> WrektAA: Arrow keys.
[03:37] <Pelo> WrektAA,   arrows,  tab key , the usual stuff
[03:37] <Jordan_U_> WrektAA, arrow keys to switch channels and levels, "m" to mute / unmute
