[12:01] <monkey050> age6racer: That should bring up Network Settings
[12:01] <monkey050> You have to click the Wireless Connection and go to Properties.
[12:01] <age6racer> yup
[12:01] <monkey050> Then check Enable this connection
[12:01] <usr_rob> Do you need to defrag ext3 filesystem ?
[12:02] <monkey050> Then you'll need to enter your SSID.
[12:02] <Himura> usr_rob, nop
[12:02] <stefg> jokoon: i don't know quake, sorry . Try to search the wine/cedega forums. All I know is taht software emulation of 3D accel is of course too slow for games
[12:02] <age6racer> what is an SSID?
[12:02] <monkey050> The ID of your wireless router.
[12:02] <age6racer> like a workgroup name?
[12:02] <monkey050> No.
[12:02] <usr_rob> Himura: Okey, i've read it somewhere, just needed a confirm :) thx
[12:03] <|PaRaBoLa|> hello good night
[12:03] <|PaRaBoLa|> ..or day
[12:03] <age6racer> is there some way to find out the name of the router?
[12:03] <jokoon> stefg I'm not talking about an emulated game : quake 3 runs quite nicely in linux
[12:03] <Himura> usr_rob, http://geekblog.oneandoneis2.org/index.php/2006/08/17/why_doesn_t_linux_need_defragmenting
[12:03] <monkey050> If you have a windows computer you can just check the Wireless Connection for it.
[12:03] <monkey050> Yes
[12:03] <monkey050> Do you have access to a windows computer?
[12:03] <monkey050> You can find it on there.
[12:03] <vlt> age6racer, When card is finally running you can do a `iwlist scan`
[12:03] <usr_rob> Himura: Thx alot! :)
[12:03] <cmacis> is there a way to search networks?
[12:03] <cmacis> wireless ones
[12:03] <monkey050> Right, vlt.
[12:03] <monkey050> Didn't think of that.
[12:03] <Uboon2> ExM3th1x: i think that u need some mp3 codecs: try vlc and all plugins
[12:03] <Orangekid13> stefg: do i want to "use kernel framebuffer device interface" ? i have an NVIDIA e-GeForce 7300 and i've already installed the NVIDIA driver
[12:03] <monkey050> So age6racer, just check "Enable this connection" and then do what vlt said.
[12:04] <stefg> jokoon: i don't game (too much)... but maybe poke ubotu with !games and see if you can find info in the list
[12:04] <monkey050> Hey, I rebooted and my time saved.  Yay.
[12:04] <age6racer> i did it said hardware does not support scanning
[12:04] <monkey050> lol

[12:08] <kincade> ok here's what I want to do I'm trying to install the newest nvidia driver and need to know how to get it to boot into runlevel 3
[12:08] <vlt> age6racer, You can ask `aptitude show knetworkmanager`
[12:08] <Orangekid13> stefg: it already has "lv3:ralt switch" in the box for that
[12:08] <Uboon2> i never used totem or what ever
[12:08] <age6racer> ok i'll check the dependancies
[12:09] <Helpmeee> kincade, telinit3
[12:09] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Vlt, was that string a terminal string you mentioned before?
[12:09] <corevette> how do i edit gdm?
[12:09] <brussel> is there an irc server for just chatting about ubuntu?
[12:09] <stefg> Orangekid13: so keep that and 'enter'
[12:09] <Orangekid13> k
[12:09] <brussel> this one seems to be mostly about setup problems
[12:09] <ExM3th1x> Uboon2, you mean mplayer? it IS playeing everything very good... but i just get this error everytime i start mplayer
[12:09] <jrib> brussel: /join #ubuntu-offtopic

[12:10] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Ok
[12:10] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I think age6racer should just use that then
[12:10] <monkey050-Ubuntu> to find his SSID
[12:10] <Orangekid13> stefg: do i pick ImPS/2 or ExplorerPS/2?
[12:11] <stefg> Orangekid13: you have the autodetected settings already there... keep them, only change the resolutionas
[12:11] <Orangekid13> k
[12:11] <ExM3th1x> Uboon2, i tryed that
[12:11] <brussel> jrib, thank you
[12:11] <stefg> Orangekid13: IMPS/2 if in doubt
[12:11] <age6racer> i'm installing it now
[12:11] <vlt> :)
[12:11] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Age6racer, did you get the card enabled OK?
[12:11] <monkey050-Ubuntu> What name was it assigned?
[12:11] <age6racer> yeah it's enabled at the moment
[12:11] <lifepositive> firefox keeps wanting to connect to imrworldwide.com.  Anyone know what that is?
[12:12] <age6racer> eth1
[12:12] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Mine's "wlan0"
[12:12] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Ok
[12:12] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Was it enabled before when you tried to use it?
[12:12] <age6racer> yeah
[12:12] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Oh.
[12:12] <vlt> monkey050-Ubuntu: Do you use bcm43xx driver or ndiswrapper?
[12:12] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I didn't use anything.
[12:12] <monkey050-Ubuntu> It automatically recognized.
[12:12] <age6racer> I have both installed  :/
[12:12] <corevette> how do you edit GDM?
[12:12] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I just enabled it and ran pppoeconf
[12:12] <ExM3th1x> Uboon2, the way to fix that is adding "ac=ffmp3" to the mplayer config file
[12:13] <age6racer> i believe it is using bcm43xx
[12:13] <pacolato> hi
[12:13] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I still can't get bloody Rhythmbox to work.
[12:13] <stefg> corevette: what do you mean? editing the source code of gdm?
[12:13] <monkey050-Ubuntu> It won't play anything.  :(
[12:13] <vlt> On my BCM4311 I got only 125 kbit/s using bmc43xx
[12:13] <vlt> age6racer, On my BCM4311 I got only 125 kbit/s using bmc43xx
[12:13] <corevette> is there a gdm.conf file somewhere stefg?
[12:14] <Uboon2> ExM3th1x:  lol' i dont use mplayer so never seen the errors before
[12:14] <lifepositive> since I installed firefox plugin noscript. i keep getting the messahe firefox trying to connect to imrworldwide.com
[12:14] <vlt> age6racer, It seems to be a known problem
[12:14] <age6racer> right
[12:14] <corevette> stefg, when i uninstall xgl, gdm still looks for xgl, but i uninstalled it so it can't load the xserver
[12:14] <stefg> corevette: /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
[12:14] <Orangekid13> stefg: YAY THANK YOU

[12:15] <edd_> ok ive done FIREFOX_DSP=aoss but my sound still isnt working in flash, any1 else got any other ideas??
[12:15] <stefg> Orangekid13: a whispered thanks is more polite than a shouted one :-)
[12:15] <age6racer> i just ran pppoeconf and it said it couldnt scan
[12:15] <monkey050-Ubuntu> OK so now can anybody help me figure out why Rhythmbox refuses to play things despite the fact I got all the codecs and everything installed?
[12:15] <Orangekid13> stefg: do you have any experience with setting up NVIDIA TwinView for running dual monitors?
[12:15] <jrib> edd_: did you install aoss?
[12:15] <edd_> yeah
[12:15] <ExM3th1x> Uboon2, mplayer is just the best for me
[12:15] <vlt> age6racer: Can you try to activate it again and then look if there's something in `dmesg`?
[12:15] <ExM3th1x> :D
[12:15] <jrib> edd_: close all firefox.  Then run 'aoss firefox'.  Does it work now?
[12:15] <age6racer> how do I look in dmesg?
[12:15] <Uboon2> ExM3th1x:  :) ur desktop also looks nice man
[12:16] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Terminal
[12:16] <stefg> Orangekid13: sudo apt-get install nvidia-xconfig nvidia-settings
[12:16] <edd_> nope
[12:16] <stefg> Orangekid13: then you have a neat GUI-Tool to set up your stuff
[12:16] <vlt> age6racer, Type `dmesg` (w/o the ``)
[12:16] <ExM3th1x> Uboon2, thX
[12:16] <Uboon2> ExM3th1x,  yw
[12:16] <jrib> edd_: ok, does sound work on other things?
[12:17] <corevette> when i uninstall xgl, gdm still looks for xgl, but i uninstalled it so it can't load the xserver
[12:17] <monkey050-Ubuntu> (06:16:47 PM) vlt: age6racer, Type `dmesg` (w/o the ``)  <---- In a terminal
[12:17] <edd_> jrib: yeah

[12:17] <Uboon2> ExM3th1x,  i'm still trying to figure out: beryl or compiz
[12:18] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Is 9 out for Linux??
[12:18] <jrib> edd_: did 7 play sound?
[12:18] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I installed 7 from within firefox
[12:18] <jrib> monkey050-Ubuntu: 9 beta2
[12:18] <stefg> corevette: Did you create a separate xgl-session (like the wiki proposes)? Then simply cahnge the session type back to gnome, instaed of gnome-xgl (or whtever it's called
[12:18] <edd_> yep
[12:18] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Ok
[12:18] <Orangekid13> stefg: what do i do after that?
[12:18] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I better install that then.
[12:18] <jrib> edd_: maybe a bug with 9 then
[12:18] <monkey050-Ubuntu> My 7 wouldn't play an audio player
[12:18] <Orangekid13> stefg: ctrl+alt+bksp?
[12:18] <corevette> stefg, maybe, how do i find out if i have a gnome-xgl session
[12:18] <edd_> maybe
[12:18] <stefg> Orangekid13: look in your Application/System Tools menu...
[12:19] <age6racer> i'm just trying to use knetworkmanager. (my system is very slow) so you'll have to bare with me monkey050 / vlt
[12:19] <eyalw> i need help configuring php 5 to use mySQL libs
[12:19] <monkey050-Ubuntu> No prob
[12:19] <jrib> edd_: 9 is supposed to use alsa anyway so aoss shouldn't be needed

[12:19] <ExM3th1x> :D
[12:19] <monkey050-Ubuntu> The one i'm on now used to be a windows ocmputer.
[12:19] <monkey050-Ubuntu> until it ate itself in a chkdsk
[12:19] <khaled> is it wise to do "#How to add extra repositories" from http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy
[12:19] <stefg> corevette: then you xorg.conf is broken. restore a backup or sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

[12:19] <HDS_> Hi everybody.... have a prob. installed xgl, all nice and dandy but when it comes to launching it just gives me a mouse pointer and waits for about half a minute, gives the loading cursors and reverts back to the session login screen.... how can i make it work?
[12:19] <edd_> jrib: i know, it didnt work so i asked on here and  did that
[12:20] <RxDx> how can i save a video from XVidCap?

[12:20] <Orangekid13> stefg: what am i looking for?
[12:20] <age6racer> it crawls sometimes
[12:20] <corevette> well i can get on the xserver fine when i have xgl installed
[12:20] <Orangekid13> or do i have to restart gnome first?
[12:20] <age6racer> ok knetworkmanager doesnt show any networks up
[12:20] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Hey, I'm running an AWESOME 1.00GHz Pentium 3!
[12:20] <corevette> well i can get on the xserver fine when i have xgl installed, stefg
[12:20] <age6racer> wow beastpower
[12:20] <dope> is there a way to associate a domain to an IP like how localhost goes to <IP_ADDRESS>
[12:20] <stefg> Orangekid13: in Apps/system tools should be an entry : Nvidia X server settings
[12:20] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Oh yeah!
[12:20] <khaled> is it wise to do "#How to add extra repositories" from http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy
[12:21] <lifepositive> !adblock
[12:21] <Orangekid13> stefg: gah i restarted gnome and it failed

[12:21] <thomasevensen> Hi, I'm new to ubuntu and after installing edgy ..it froze while installing a new theme with gnome-art ... now I can't get past that brown box after i log in (the one that shows small icons of stuff beeing loaded). I can boot to recovery mode and the console, but I don't know what to look for.
[12:21] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Adblock's a Firefox extension.  WHo's looking for that?
[12:21] <age6racer> I'd kill for another 128mb of ram! I think i'm gonna have to buy some more
[12:21] <age6racer> anyway... wireless is the name of the game
[12:21] <monkey050-Ubuntu> lol
[12:21] <magic_ninja> how do i make my default shell bash
[12:21] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Right
[12:22] <stefg> corevette: hmmm... /j #ubuntu-xgl. beryl is troublesome, you knew that before.

[12:22] <lufis> Is there a way (aside from actually burning a CD :P) to see how fast my cd drive reads/writes?
[12:22] <jrib> lufis: look it up on google?
[12:22] <vlt> age6racer, dmesg?
[12:22] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I didn't use knetworkmanager so I don't know about it.
[12:22] <stefg> Orangekid13: what are you looking at now?
[12:22] <magic_ninja> jrib: mabye
[12:22] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I just enabled and had to run PPPoE conf
[12:23] <jrib> magic_ninja: chsh
[12:23] <lufis> jrib: well, the drive is hard to get to and doesn't have any of its brandings visible
[12:23] <monkey050-Ubuntu> And it's strange because I have the same bloody PCMCIA card as you!
[12:23] <jrib> magic_ninja: note taht the default is already bash
[12:23] <age6racer> oh surprise surprise. i just reopened networking and found that my wireless connection was not enabled anymore
[12:23] <age6racer> sorry activated
[12:23] <monkey050-Ubuntu> That's odd
[12:23] <age6racer> it is still enabled
[12:23] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Hm.
[12:23] <khaled> guys, i need help, is it wise to "add extra repositories" from the guide http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy ?
[12:23] <willskills> :o
[12:23] <Orangekid13> stefg: it's got my system information and something about my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[12:24] <jrib> lufis: use 'sudo lshw' to get a model number of some kind for it, then use google
[12:24] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I knew my SSID so I just put it in.  :?
[12:24] <AngryElf> alright -- so my ipod shuffle gets mounted fine by Edgy -- but it isn't detected as a "USB device" by VMserver -- any ideas on why it's not?
[12:24] <lufis> jrib: oh, cool, thanks!
[12:24] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I'm using 6.10 too so...
[12:24] <gabethemonkey> anybody in here wanna share a premade smb.conf that makes me get acces to shared folder on my ubuntu box from my xp?
[12:24] <gabethemonkey> i somehow cant figure out to make my own
[12:24] <Orangekid13> stefg: oh it scrolls... "Failed to load module "nvidia" (module does not exist,0)"
[12:24] <vlt> age6racer, So, you're still on 6.06

[12:26] <Orangekid13> stefg: i copy that exactly?
[12:27] <corevette> i installed xgl, but now i decide to uninstall it.  so when i uninstall xgl, the xserver says taht GDM can't find XGL so i'm stuck running in recovery mode because xserver gives me errors that say i need xgl to start up
[12:27] <CarrionReek> So how's Edgy going guys?
[12:27] <vlt> age you haven' installed fw yet
[12:27] <stefg> Orangekid13: yes... the command parts
[12:27] <monkey050-Ubuntu> brb, gonna install flash and audacity
[12:27] <HDS_> Hi everybody.... have a prob. installed xgl, all nice and dandy but when it comes to launching it just gives me a mouse pointer and waits for about half a minute, gives the loading cursors and reverts back to the session login screen.... how can i make it work?
[12:27] <age6racer> ok well i'll upgrage to edgy and then come back tomorrow then (if it doesnt work straight off the bat that is)
[12:28] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Join the club!
[12:28] <vlt> age6racer, You could give installing fw a try
[12:28] <age6racer> night all! and thanks so muc for all the help vlt & monkey050
[12:28] <type> what is the best way to move the /home folder to its own partition
[12:28] <age6racer> fw
[12:28] <age6racer> ?
[12:28] <thomasevensen> how can I revert back to the default theme by using the command line?
[12:28] <monkey050-Ubuntu> you're welcome
[12:28] <vlt> age6racer, firmware (I mentioned before)
[12:28] <Orangekid13> stefg: how long is the first part supposed to take? it's got a cursor on the line below... is it waiting for the root password?
[12:28] <shinda> hey, I'm having some permissions problems with curlftpfs anyone think they can help?
[12:28] <CarrionReek> So has it been none for dualbooting to completely destroy a computer?
[12:29] <corevette> i installed xgl, but now i decide to uninstall it.  so when i uninstall xgl, the xserver says taht GDM can't find XGL so i'm stuck running in recovery mode because xserver gives me errors that say i need xgl to start up
[12:29] <CarrionReek> "known"
[12:29] <age6racer> what does that entail?
[12:29] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I have the same card as him and didn't have to bother with "firmware"
[12:29] <type> what is the best way to move the /home folder to its own partition?
[12:29] <stefg> Orangekid13: not sure, put probably it's waiting for a password
[12:29] <vlt> monkey050-Ubuntu, You're on Edgy
[12:29] <CarrionReek> I was dual booting Dapper, and Windows.
[12:29] <monkey050-Ubuntu> We have the same Linksys card.
[12:29] <monkey050-Ubuntu> yeah
[12:29] <CarrionReek> And my computer went capoot.
[12:29] <monkey050-Ubuntu> 6.10.  ^)^
[12:29] <CarrionReek> kapoot
[12:29] <Orangekid13> i typed it and it showed up, hit enter and it's just got a cursor on the line below
[12:29] <age6racer> i'll upgrade to 6.10 and take it from there
[12:30] <stefg> kaputt is the right spelling in germen :-)
[12:30] <CarrionReek> But but it died.
[12:30] <Orangekid13> stefg: should i hit the reset button on my case?
[12:30] <age6racer> cheers guys/gals
[12:30] <stefg> Orangekid13: why?
[12:30] <CarrionReek> ANd I had to get a whole new computer, ironically I know it wasn't ubuntu that did it.
[12:30] <Orangekid13> stefg: it's not doing anything... there's no activity
[12:30] <type> what is the best way to move the /home folder to its own partition?
[12:31] <Music_Shuffle> Sometimes if you type in the wrong root pw it locks up like that.
[12:31] <CarrionReek> Is it hard to dualboot windows and ubuntu on one HD?
[12:31] <stefg> Orangekid13: ok then... to get back to a defined state it's probably good to reset
[12:31] <Music_Shuffle> CarrionReek, a lot of people do it.
[12:31] <CarrionReek> But is it difficult to set up?
[12:31] <vlt> type: boot into init 2, mv all files from /home to another partition, add partition as /home to /etc/fstab
[12:31] <willskills> no
[12:31] <CarrionReek> I had 2 hd's before.
[12:32] <CarrionReek> Now I have one 160gb.
[12:32] <MrRio_> hey
[12:32] <MrRio_> Windows XP has taken over my MBR
[12:32] <ubuntox> is it possible to move the /home folder to its own partition?
[12:32] <pkh> how do you set services to automatically start (from commandline?)
[12:32] <MrRio_> I have the edgy live cd, how do I restore?
[12:32] <vlt> ubuntox, type: boot into init 2, mv all files from /home to another partition, add partition as /home to /etc/fstab
[12:32] <pkh> ubuntox, yes.
[12:32] <tptak> I need some help with the Alsa Driver for Pro SoundCard HowTo.
[12:32] <Orangekid13> stefg: so do i pick recovery mode from grub?
[12:33] <CarrionReek> So I take it it wouldn't be hard to do o o;;;;;;
[12:33] <spacepod> well thanks for the help johns^ and mralphabet
[12:33] <ubuntox> vlt, mv will more all files...hidden as well?
[12:33] <CarrionReek> I'm curious to see if my computer will even work right with the new computer under ubuntu.,
[12:33] <stefg> Orangekid13: no... just boot up normal and see what happens
[12:33] <spacepod> note.. you guys ROCK!
[12:33] <ndw> Hi all. I upgraded this morning and now my Thinkpad dies after seconds or minutes. The screen goes black and that's it, game over. Anyone else reporting issues with the stuff that was new (in Edgy) today?
[12:33] <Orangekid13> k
[12:33] <spacepod> power to ubuntu...
[12:33] <jrib> vlt: runlevel 2 is default in ubuntu
[12:33] <Orangekid13> well i have the ubuntu logo, that's good
[12:33] <CarrionReek> wait there's new edgy?
[12:33] <ndw> I've found an older kernel, so it's not the kernel it's something else.
[12:33] <monkey050-Ubuntu> How do I start the FLash 9 installer?
[12:34] <ndw> Uh. Well, apt-get update got new stuff this morning.
[12:34] <vlt> ubuntox, Yes, mv will move ALL files
[12:34] <ubuntox> vlt, what about telling ubuntu where the /home went
[12:34] <Music_Shuffle> Later spacepod.
[12:34] <spacepod> monkey you need to download it
[12:34] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I downloaded and extracted it to my home folder
[12:34] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I need to know how to start it from the terminal
[12:34] <vlt> ubuntox : add aline to /etc/fstab
[12:34] <Orangekid13> stefg: ok now i have a prompt
[12:34] <spacepod> ok now typ ./flash-installer
[12:34] <Orangekid13> lost what you said to type though
[12:34] <monkey050-Ubuntu> In terminal?
[12:34] <spacepod> in the console
[12:34] <spacepod> yea
[12:34] <ndw> Going all the way back to the edgy CD is a painful thought, so I'm hoping for a clue-by-four
[12:34] <stefg> monkey050-Ubuntu: don't use it! theres .debs available from third-party repos
[12:35] <spacepod> might be ./flashplayer-install
[12:35] <ubuntox> vlt, duh...i didn't realize it was that painless...i figured there had to be more steps
[12:35] <spacepod> ls the dir
[12:35] <stefg> Orangekid13: sudo -s
[12:35] <dope> what port does vncviewer use?
[12:35] <monkey050-Ubuntu> bash: ./flash-installer: No such file or directory
[12:35] <CarrionReek> Have they fixed alot of the edgy problems yet?
[12:35] <kibab> konsole (in this ubuntu install) keeps wrapping my line about 20 characters prematurely and after the carriage return doesn't place a newline (starts overwriting the same line). Any ideas how I might fix it?
[12:35] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I got the same error for both
[12:35] <spacepod> it might be called flashplayer-install
[12:35] <spacepod> ls the dir in term
[12:35] <vlt> dope, The one you tel it to use.
[12:35] <HDS_> Hi, problem, tried installing XGL, successful install but crashes on session start..... any way i could find out what happens and how to fic it?
[12:35] <monkey050-Ubuntu> What's that mean?
[12:35] <dope> what's the default
[12:36] <stefg> !xgl
[12:36] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - Help in #ubuntu-xgl - See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[12:36] <vlt> dope, default is 5900
[12:36] <tptak> ok, I haven't asked for anything ;) My fault ;]
[12:36] <monkey050-Ubuntu> It's in my home folder
[12:36] <MrRio_> monkey050-Ubuntu:  for New flash 9, just read the readme, its one file, you need to copy into your plugin folder
[12:36] <dope> vlt: one more question.  how do i set system variables like $local
[12:36] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Plugin folder?
[12:36] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Where is that?
[12:36] <MrRio_> read the readme tyhat comes with flash 9
[12:36] <MrRio_> it says in there
[12:36] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I did read it.
[12:36] <vlt> dope, In a shell script?
[12:36] <stefg> monkey050-Ubuntu: why are you so keen on bypassing apt?
[12:37] <MrRio_> I should say something like copy the file to .mozilla/plugins
[12:37] <MrRio_> or something
[12:37] <thomasevensen> how can I revert back to the default theme by using the command line?
[12:37] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Perhaps because I didn't know about it?
[12:37] <dope> vlt, so i can access the variable from the console.  it's for an ip and it's easier to remember a name instead of an ip address
[12:37] <thomasevensen> or what file determines what theme is used?
[12:37] <stefg> thomasevensen: you can't... it's a gui for the gui settings
[12:37] <savvas> there is no more linux-image-k7 right?
[12:37] <gnomefreak> savvas: its generic
[12:37] <vlt> dope, FOO="<IP_ADDRESS>"
[12:37] <stefg> savvas: it's now -generic
[12:38] <gnomefreak> linux-image-generic
[12:38] <jrib> thomasevensen: gtk theme? metacity theme? icon theme?
[12:38] <savvas> gnomefreak: so the answer is no?
[12:38] <vlt> dope, 'vncviewer $FOO`
[12:38] <dope> ah ok
[12:38] <stefg> savvas: yes, no
[12:38] <vlt> dope, or better 'vncviewer ${FOO}`
[12:38] <dope> what about for ports?
[12:38] <gnomefreak> savvas: seperate kernel no but k7 modules are in -generic
[12:38] <thomasevensen> stefg: My machine froze when installing a new theme with gnome-art ... and after that I'm unable to get past login
[12:38] <spacepod> should be it in mozilla-firefox directory moneky
[12:38] <vlt> dope, ?
[12:38] <monkey050-Ubuntu> OK, it turns out i just redownloaded 7.  where do I find 9????
[12:38] <dope> like append a port onto the variable
[12:38] <Red-Sox> Hi, just wondering how I can determine what my CUPS printer's URL is...
[12:38] <gnomefreak> monkey050-Ubuntu: flash?
[12:39] <dope> vlt, like $foo:80
[12:39] <Orangekid13> stefg i did the sudo -s and now i have a root@[computer name]  prompt
[12:39] <gnomefreak> monkey050-Ubuntu: on edgy its in the backport repos
[12:39] <HDS_> Hi, problem, tried installing XGL, successful install but crashes on session start..... any way i could find out what happens and how to fic it?
[12:39] <vlt> dope, or better 'vncviewer ${FOO}:80`
[12:39] <monkey050-Ubuntu> ok
[12:39] <dope> ah ok
[12:39] <dope> thx a ton
[12:39] <gnomefreak> HDS_: see #ubuntu-xgl
[12:39] <dope> vlt, how do i delete the variable?
[12:39] <savvas> gnomefreak: hm.. if there was a k7, would it be faster? i never tried to switch to a k7 module kernel and compare before :\
[12:39] <vlt> dope, FOO=""
[12:39] <jrib> thomasevensen: it's stored in gconf keys.  /desktop/gnome/interface/gtk_theme for the gtk theme and /apps/metacity/general/theme for the metacity theme.  You can use gconftool-2 to edit gconf keys
[12:39] <stefg> thomasevensen: if you just used drag and drop in the them manager you could rename ~/.icons and ~/.themes to take that away f
[12:40] <killermach> how do I keep ubuntu from deleting devices I make in /dev/ with mknod???
[12:40] <Orangekid13> stefg: do i type "apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-'uname -r' nvidia-glx && nvidia-glx-config enable" or do i still put sudo first?
[12:40] <vlt> dope, don't know if there's a better way#
[12:40] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Is there a proper name for "backport"? I only have universal and multiverse to chose
[12:40] <wyld> what does the java installer mean when it says: "The file should be owned by root.root and be copied to /tmp."?
[12:40] <dope> heh that'll work
[12:40] <dope> thx again
[12:40] <gnomefreak> savvas: generic is generic
[12:40] <stefg> Orangekid13: no, you're root now... now more sudo's necessary
[12:40] <sam75412> Howdy all. I am having all kinds of problems installing 6.10 . The display driver it installs with is buggy, and I can't get the ATI drivers installed without crashing my whole installation and having to start over. Any ideas?
[12:40] <spacepod> well till next time
[12:40] <savvas> ok thx
[12:40] <gnomefreak> monkey050-Ubuntu: does it say backports in the repo itself?
[12:40] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Uh... no.
[12:41] <monkey050-Ubuntu> universe, main, multiverse, restricted
[12:41] <gnomefreak> monkey050-Ubuntu: hold on let me get you the backports repo. are you using edgy?
[12:41] <stefg> Orangekid13: _no_ more sudo's necessary
[12:41] <wyld> how do i change ownerships of a file?
[12:41] <Orangekid13> stefg: "couldn't find package linux-restricted-modules-uname -r"
[12:41] <monkey050-Ubuntu> 6.10 baby!
[12:41] <jrib> wyld: chown
[12:41] <monkey050-Ubuntu> yep
[12:41] <gribelu> yo.. one thing.. could eveyone just grab a window, move it around, and tell if if the CPU utilization goes over 20%? :)
[12:41] <wyld> thanks

[12:42] <HDS_> How to change default display w/ FGLRX?
[12:42] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Wait so did i just have to checkmark the other 2 things???
[12:42] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I didn't know what a backport was
[12:42] <jrib> !support | sam75412
[12:42] <ubotu> sam75412: For your support options, see http://www.ubuntu.com/support
[12:42] <gnomefreak> monkey050-Ubuntu: do you see that line in /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:42] <monkey050-Ubuntu> um, hold on
[12:43] <Orangekid13> ok so it worked, mad a backup (like i would want to revert to that) and gave me the command to revert if it doesnt work
[12:43] <gnomefreak> monkey050-Ubuntu: if you see a check box for backports yes check it
[12:43] <MrRio_> sam75412: Canonical
[12:43] <monkey050-Ubuntu> It doesn't say backports, but it has the 4 kinds of things, 2 which are on by default.
[12:43] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Oh
[12:43] <MrRio_> http://www.canonical.com/support/webtolead
[12:43] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Then I just have to checkmark the things I guess.
[12:43] <CarrionReek> also why does the text install take 3 hours to do?
[12:43] <Red-Sox> Anyone here use CUPS?
[12:43] <sam75412> this is so frustrating

[12:48] <vlt> dope, Don't know very much abou that. Google for "export" ... or if it's onyl for IP addresses: list them in /etc/hosts
[12:48] <gnomefreak> monkey050-Ubuntu: take all the # away from any line that starts with deb
[12:48] <sam75412> ok, do you have AIM?
[12:48] <Stormx2> Got some issues setting up my wifi USB card. Check here: http://pastebin.ca/279352 Any help much appreciated. I really don't know what to do here.
[12:48] <gnomefreak> monkey050-Ubuntu: you have every repo but main commented out
[12:48] <monkey050-Ubuntu> ok
[12:48] <monkey050-Ubuntu> hold on
[12:49] <jrib> itsmabus: gnome-system-monitor is the package, do a google image search for "gnome system monitor".  The thing for logs is different.  Which did you mean?
[12:49] <gnomefreak> monkey050-Ubuntu: once you get rid of the # from all lines starting with deb save and close the file than sudo apt-get update
[12:49] <itsmabus> jrib: Oh, I meant the thing for logs, not the thing for monitoring processes.
[12:49] <Orangekid13> stefg: total noob here or i don't have it... i don't find anything that says nvidia
[12:49] <monkey050-Ubuntu> ok
[12:49] <gnomefreak> monkey050-Ubuntu: also at lines 17 and 18 add the word multiverse to the end
[12:49] <gnomefreak> monkey050-Ubuntu: never mind dont do that
[12:50] <xushi> hi all
[12:50] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I just did!
[12:50] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Wait... i removed the num symbols
[12:50] <gnomefreak> monkey050-Ubuntu: leave 17 and 18 with the #
[12:50] <jrib> itsmabus: package gnome-utils contains /usr/bin/gnome-system-log (do a google image search for "gnome system log")
[12:50] <stefg> Orangekid13: sudo aptitude install nvidia-xconfig
[12:50] <gnomefreak> monkey050-Ubuntu: some reason you decided to put everything on one line instead of the way ubuntu does it
[12:50] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I didn't put anything anywhere
[12:50] <CarrionReek> w00ps.
[12:50] <CarrionReek> Oh well.
[12:50] <monkey050-Ubuntu> That's how it came
[12:51] <corevette> i installed xgl, but now i decide to uninstall it.  so when i uninstall xgl, the xserver says taht GDM can't find XGL so i'm stuck running in recovery mode because xserver gives me errors that say i need xgl to start up
[12:51] <stefg> Orangekid13: sudo aptitude install nvidia-settings
[12:51] <monkey050-Ubuntu> What do I have to put back where?
[12:51] <zamadara> so does anybody know how to set up the printer manager so that it doesn't "stop" the printer all the time? I'd like it to always be "started"
[12:51] <gnomefreak> monkey050-Ubuntu: leave 32 and 33 commented out also
[12:51] <xushi> You must get these 2 questions a thousand times, but, 1) Is the sole difference between kubuntu and ubuntu kde/gnome? 2) Should i base my choice between those two distros solely on that matter?
[12:51] <monkey050-Ubuntu> OK now is it safe?
[12:51] <stefg> xushi: yes and yes
[12:51] <Orangekid13> stefg: "score is -301" "accept this solution? Y/n/q/? "
[12:51] <itsmabus> jrib: thanks a ton
[12:52] <stefg> Orangekid13: yes
[12:52] <Orangekid13> stefg: it wants to remove nvidia-glx
[12:52] <xushi> stefg: they're both developed by the same group/organisation ?
[12:52] <monkey050-Ubuntu> can I sudo apt-get now?
[12:52] <xushi> thanks. I'm actually tempted to give it a try. You've convinced me =)
[12:52] <stefg> Orangekid13: oh... no, we don't want taht
[12:52] <Orangekid13> stefg: before i choose anything it says "remove the following packages: nvidia-glx"
[12:52] <Orangekid13> stefg: didn't think so
[12:52] <monkey050-Ubuntu> gnomefreak can I sudo apt-get now?
[12:53] <stefg> Orangekid13: ok, then say no

[12:59] <stefg> Shaba1: that means your CD is a coaster
[12:59] <eviltwin> could someone give me a hand changing allot of the elements of the way that ubuntu looks? (splash screen, theme, gdm theme, background colour when the splash screen is active, etc)
[12:59] <monkey050-Ubuntu> It updated the GDM

[01:00] <jrib> !splash | eviltwin
[01:00] <ubotu> eviltwin: To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash-image using !gconf-editor
[01:00] <stefg> Orangekid13: What card do you have?
[01:00] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Oops, I pressed Ctrl+C and it said something
[01:00] <jrib> eviltwin: I think that covers everything
[01:00] <gnomefreak> monkey050-Ubuntu: run the last command you ran over
[01:00] <monkey050-Ubuntu> what was it?  sudo apt-get upgrade, right?
[01:01] <Orangekid13> stefg: my video card isn't on the legacy list from nvidia
[01:01] <gnomefreak> monkey050-Ubuntu: yes

[01:01] <gnomefreak> Orangekid13: your card better not be on legacy
[01:01] <monkey050-Ubuntu> OK I have the $

[01:01] <Orangekid13> stefg: i managed to drag the system tools menu item somewhere and now i can't find it
[01:01] <gnomefreak> monkey050-Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[01:02] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Instaling 9.
[01:02] <gnomefreak> stefg: nvidia-glx should bring in l-r-m and nviodia-glx
[01:02] <gnomefreak> monkey050-Ubuntu: good
[01:03] <Dial_tone> Is bmpX actually usable?
[01:03] <monkey050-Ubuntu> It said warning: /usr/lib/Xll/fonts/Type1 does not exist or is not a directory like 3 times.  But it looks like it worked.
[01:03] <RxDx> please, how can i save a video from XVidCap?
[01:03] <ramvi> Wineing world of warcraft hangs my computer. It must be fglrx. What's wrong - what do I do?

[01:04] <monkey050-Ubuntu> LOL. When my brother helped put my keyboard back together yesterday he flipped F5 and F6 and it's confusing.
[01:05] <gnomefreak> corevette: you need to undo everything you did to install it
[01:05] <justin_> On what port does Ubuntu's remote desktop connection connect locally?
[01:05] <idigital> is there a way i sort my files in a hard drive like music into one folder?
[01:05] <daeds> anyone know if ubuntu supports and detects the rt2500 wireless chipset automatically?
[01:05] <gnomefreak> corevette: all scripts you made all changes to xorg you made ect. use the guide you used to install and work backwards :)
[01:05] <justin_> idigital: Yeah umm, move them to one folder
[01:05] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Flash 9 is success.
[01:05] <cyphase> Any possibility that CUPS will be Avahi enabled in Feisty?
[01:05] <stefg> corevette: backups are always a good idea, especially if you#re doing something potentially harmful
[01:05] <justin_> monkey050-Ubuntu: Flash 9 a success? - *giggles*
[01:06] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Yep
[01:06] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Well... you know.

[01:06] <justin_> Yeah sure monkey, if you enjoy crashing every few pages ;) --- but it depends, are we still talking "BETA" here?
[01:07] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Yay.  Listening to Battlefield Modcast on Linux!
[01:07] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Now if it would work in Rhythmbox
[01:07] <justin_> Because Flash 9 beta.. is horrible, it works for a while and then it starts t crash and mash the system.
[01:07] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I don't know if it's beta
[01:07] <justin_> Well not the system.. just Firefox/Opera
[01:07] <monkey050-Ubuntu> but it's working
[01:08] <justin_> *for now* ;)
[01:08] <monkey050-Ubuntu> lol

[01:14] <Orangekid13> i'm new to IRC too, is there some way of keeping track of you?
[01:14] <Orangekid13> do you have aim or msn?
[01:14] <ciscosurfer> Jumper: open a Terminal and enter in: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[01:15] <jrib> globe: start it in a subshell (cd foo && command) .  That's what comes to mind anyway
[01:15] <Jumper> thanks
[01:15] <ciscosurfer> Jumper: ...
[01:15] <ciscosurfer> Jumper: you can also manually set resolutions (modelines) in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file

[01:23] <willskills> overridex, yes, just right click it
[01:23] <willskills> and choose auto hide :)
[01:23] <stefg> willskills: a popular problem is that the mic input is muted or switched to mic2 (or switched to mic1 while 2 would be right)

[01:29] <vanberge> so.. anybody know of a 'good' way to run Counterstrike ?  :-P   been reading for awhile now and its all cedega/wine.  are those really the only options?
[01:29] <kitche> vanberge: yes

[01:29] <ablyss> vanberge: some wine apps run better than on native windows
[01:29] <stefg> !build | h00t
[01:29] <ubotu> h00t: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[01:30] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Can anybody help me with Rhythmbox Media Player??????
[01:30] <ablyss> vanberge: another alternative would be vmware
[01:30] <vanberge> kitche, HDS43 ablyss ... tyvm.  :-*
[01:30] <ablyss> though you'd get better frame rate w/ wine
[01:30] <vanberge> ignore the kissy.. .meant :-)
[01:31] <stefg> monkey050-Ubuntu: even on gnome the best solution would be sudo aptitude remove --purge rhythmbox && sudo aptitude install amarok :-)
[01:31] <globe> quit
[01:31] <Shaba1> Its must be a bad image. The file size is only 8.53mb
[01:31] <monkey050-Ubuntu> But I want rhythmbox's functionality
[01:31] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I wanna be able to use the podcast stuff
[01:32] <stefg> amarok has it
[01:32] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I'll just sudo install amarok
[01:32] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I dont' want to get rid of rhythmbox
[01:32] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Bruenig, I'm signed in on 2 computers.  it's to differentiate where I am.
[01:33] <overridex> willskills: i use a usb headset with teamspeak...
[01:33] <limesoap> is nm-applet the utility for automatic network connection
[01:33] <limesoap> ?
[01:33] <HDS43> anyone with ATI in here running, or who ran XGL?!?!?!?!!?
[01:33] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Anyways, I don't want to worry about KDE stuff.
[01:33] <LjL> bimberi: ping, and can i pm you
[01:33] <un_operateur1> :thinks of the divider as nothing but a cosmetic blemish
[01:33] <bruenig> HDS43, #ubuntu-xgl
[01:34] <bimberi> hi LjL, sure
[01:34] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Is there a way to get rhythmbox to play my files?
[01:35] <kitche> monkey050-Ubuntu: what files?
[01:35] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Any of them!
[01:35] <un_operateur1> errm, yea, what files?
[01:35] <bruenig> your .doc files, no
[01:35] <monkey050-Ubuntu> My MP3's, the Battlefield Modcast which I host
[01:35] <un_operateur1> lol
[01:35] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I'm not that stupid...
[01:35] <Alakazamz0r_> yeah you are
[01:35] <Alakazamz0r_> :P
[01:35] <monkey050-Ubuntu> You wish.
[01:35] <kitche> monkey050-Ubuntu you need to install codecs
[01:35] <Alakazamz0r_> heheh
[01:35] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I installed them ALL
[01:35] <un_operateur1> rhythmbox ought to play all files that it finds codecs for
[01:36] <bruenig> monkey050-Ubuntu, you have been to the restricted formats page of the wiki?
[01:36] <monkey050-Ubuntu> yYes
[01:36] <monkey050-Ubuntu> That's where I got my codec install instructions from
[01:36] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I did it all except the DVD one because I Don't have a working CD drive on this comp
[01:36] <bruenig> monkey050-Ubuntu, rhythmbox should work then. You didn't use anything else, automatix maybe...
[01:36] <monkey050-Ubuntu> The fact is that it doesn, and I want to make it.
[01:37] <bruenig> monkey050-Ubuntu, what all did you install then
[01:37] <HDS43> anyone with ATI in here running, or who ran XGL?!?!?!?!!? And i have already been to #ubuntu-xgl.....nobody alive in there...
[01:37] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I went in the terminal and installed the 3 lines of codecs like it said
[01:37] <khaladan> hi
[01:37] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I followed exact instructions
[01:37] <monkey050-Ubuntu> the "quick way" thing.
[01:38] <khaladan> i downloaded ubuntu 6.06 server iso for amd64.  my cpu is actually a xeon.  will that work?  i thought so, but when i tried starting it, i got a message that said this wasn't amd64 hardware.
[01:38] <khaladan> it said "This is not an amd64 machine"
[01:38] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Did you accidentally install the AMD version, khaladan?
[01:38] <erUSUL> khaladan: there are 32bit xeons
[01:38] <khaladan> this is a new xeon, says it has x86-64
[01:39] <khaladan> i've not installed anything
[01:39] <bruenig> monkey050-Ubuntu, what about gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
[01:39] <un_operateur1> so why did you get an AMD64 iso??
[01:39] <khaladan> BECAUSE THE AMD64 ISO SAYS IT WORKS WITH XEONS
[01:39] <jroes> ergh, fsck failed on my box -- what does one normally do when it asks whether to copy the backup to original or original to backup?
[01:39] <bruenig> khaladan, don't yell
[01:39] <khaladan> ok
[01:39] <bruenig> khaladan, hurts my ears
[01:39] <khaladan> right, sorry
[01:40] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I put them ALL, bruenig
[01:40] <erUSUL> un_operateur1: amd64 means that it works in x86_64 hard intel or amd
[01:40] <bruenig> monkey050-Ubuntu, do sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
[01:40] <monkey050-Ubuntu> The ugly, beastly, ogrely... all of them.  Whatever they were, I Did them all
[01:40] <khaladan> so anyway i am kind of confused
[01:40] <monkey050-Ubuntu> hokay
[01:40] <bruenig> khaladan, just go with the i386
[01:40] <monkey050-Ubuntu> i'll do it again
[01:40] <un_operateur1> well, the case that it fails means that a better alternative is to be used, no>
[01:40] <un_operateur1> ?
[01:40] <khaladan> drat
[01:40] <erUSUL> un_operateur1: no
[01:40] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Why.
[01:40] <khaladan> i hoped i could get a 64-bit version working
[01:41] <monkey050-Ubuntu> gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly is already the newest version.
[01:41] <khaladan> but i guess i386 is my only choice
[01:41] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I told you!
[01:41] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I'm not that stupid.  I installed ALL of them.
[01:41] <erUSUL> khaladan: maybe you need to pass noapic or acpi=off boot options in order to boot?
[01:41] <bruenig> monkey050-Ubuntu, well you certainly do know it all. Now tell me why exactly mp3's aren't playing
[01:41] <willskills> overridex, - check your PM please :)
[01:41] <monkey050-Ubuntu> MP3s play in the movie player fine.
[01:42] <monkey050-Ubuntu> but rhythmbox doesn't play anything
[01:42] <monkey050-Ubuntu> It won't play imported files, it won't download podcasts
[01:42] <khaladan> erUSUL, thinik so? i can try that right now.
[01:42] <erUSUL> monkey050-Ubuntu: totem works? (no totem-xine i mean)
[01:42] <bruenig> monkey050-Ubuntu, was that the rhythmbox that came with it. I know some scripts will install a newer version...
[01:43] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Totem will play MP3s.
[01:43] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Rhythmbox is still stock.
[01:44] <monkey050-Ubuntu> is there some kind of sudo apt-get upgrade rhythmbox or something similar?
[01:44] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Am I on the right train of thought?
[01:44] <erUSUL> monkey050-Ubuntu: check gstreamer-properties to see if everything is all right
[01:44] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Is that a terminal cmd?
[01:44] <erUSUL> monkey050-Ubuntu: yes
[01:44] <khaladan> so i pressed F6 and added noapic to the end, but it said the same thing
[01:44] <aussieaubs> anyone here running ubuntu behind a proxy???
[01:44] <jroes> how do I mount an ext3 partition?
[01:44] <khaladan> now i'll try acpi=off
[01:44] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Ok, what do I do in the box?
[01:44] <catisonh> is there a program I can use to let me burn a huge directory to multiple DVDs?
[01:45] <monkey050-Ubuntu> It skipped some unavailable plugins
[01:45] <vanberge> monkey050-Ubuntu, did you try easyubuntu?  you're jsut trying to get mp3 playback??
[01:45] <monkey050-Ubuntu> those being artsdsing, pulsesink, sdlvideosink, v4lmjpegsrc, qcamsrc, esdmon, and pulsesrc
[01:45] <erUSUL> monkey050-Ubuntu: just check that it uses alsa as output
[01:46] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Output is autodetect right now
[01:46] <monkey050-Ubuntu> set it to ALSA?
[01:46] <bruenig> monkey050-Ubuntu, what is rhythmbox doing when you play mp3's
[01:46] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Nothing
[01:46] <monkey050-Ubuntu> It won't play it
[01:46] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I go to import file and it does Nada
[01:46] <CowEdgy> where can i download gnome themes?
[01:46] <kitche> CowEdgy: gnome-look.org
[01:46] <bruenig> monkey050-Ubuntu, have you tried right clicking on an mp3 and then opening with rhythmbox
[01:47] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I just tested with ALSA and i get the beep
[01:47] <CowEdgy> thanks kitche
[01:47] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Yes
[01:47] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I tried that too
[01:47] <bruenig> monkey050-Ubuntu, it skips it or gives an error or what
[01:47] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Just does nothing
[01:47] <khaladan> i added noapic and acpi=off to the end, but it said the same thing -- "This is not an amd64 machine. Please install the i386 distribution of Ubuntu."
[01:47] <monkey050-Ubuntu> The MP3s are on a flashdrive
[01:47] <bruenig> monkey050-Ubuntu, does it launch?
[01:47] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Hold on hold on, so many people helping at the same time
[01:47] <khaladan> argh. too bad i can't get this to work
[01:47] <un_operateur1> khaladan, you could do that and then upgrade to a xeon kernel later
[01:48] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Dang, now it plays.
[01:48] <monkey050-Ubuntu> It's playing the MP3 I told it to.
[01:48] <monkey050-Ubuntu> This doesn't make much sense but OK...
[01:48] <bruenig> monkey050-Ubuntu, what was the problem then?
[01:48] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I have no idea!
[01:48] <monkey050-Ubuntu> It just wouldn't do anything.
[01:48] <khaladan> un_operateur1, true--but arent't all the packages compiled for amd64 too?
[01:48] <bruenig> monkey050-Ubuntu, I am just that good of a helper
[01:48] <monkey050-Ubuntu> lol
[01:48] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Now I'll try downloading a podcast.
[01:48] <kitche> maybe he forgot to close down and reopen it?
[01:49] <monkey050-Ubuntu> no, I closed it a million times
[01:49] <speedy> i lost sound after recent kernel update, how can i fix it?
[01:49] <un_operateur1> khaladan, not all, some -- I suppose synaptic/aptitude should take care of that and install them when you upgrade -- i'm guessing
[01:49] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Podcast downloads still fail.
[01:50] <overridex> is there anyway to allow windows to be on top of/cover up the top panel in gnome?
[01:51] <kitche> overridex: yes you have to change the properties of the top panel and uncheck always on top
[01:52] <arrenlex> !beryl > HDS43
[01:52] <will__> overridex, how did you get your usb headset working with ts?
[01:52] <overridex> kitche: when i right click on it and click properties, i don't see any mention of always on top - where is it?
[01:52] <arrenlex> !xgl > HDS43
[01:52] <overridex> will__: i basically just plugged it in, it became /dev/dsp2 (/dev/dsp is my soundcard, and /dev/dsp1 is my tvcard) and pointed teamspeak at dsp2
[01:52] <will__> overridex, Right click and Choose Properties..........
[01:52] <will__> ok
[01:53] <magic_ninja> cedega doesn't display buttons when i run the cedega setup wizard from a fresh install, has anyone found a fix for this
[01:53] <magic_ninja> !cedega } magic_ninja
[01:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cedega } magic_ninja - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:53] <overridex> all i see for the panel is orientation, size, expand, autohide, show hide buttons, arrows on hide buttons
[01:53] <CaBlGuY> anyone help me install googleearth from a .bin file..
[01:53] <overridex> does it need to be a different type of panel or something?
[01:54] <arrenlex> CaBlGuY: chmod +x <file.bin> && ./<file.bin>
[01:54] <clearscreen> chmod a+x then ./.........
[01:54] <clearscreen> too fast for me arrenlex :P
[01:54] <arfonzo> hi, is there a way i can make the "this-is-a-symlink" part of an icon smaller for ubuntu-desktop?
[01:54] <CaBlGuY> arrenlex:  K...
[01:54] <lazerbeak> hi there I just downloaded a driver for my wireless card how do I install it?
[01:54] <mike1980> How or where do I configure proftpd from please? GUI?
[01:54] <arfonzo> (or hide it altogether)
[01:55] <clearscreen> lazerbeak what kind of driver is it? module?
[01:55] <lazerbeak> it has two folders module and wpa_supplicant
[01:55] <CaBlGuY> arrenlex:  real quick, I have to be in the dir. folder yes, and not use Sudo..  is that right?
[01:55] <lazerbeak> its a wireless usb driver
[01:56] <lazerbeak> its a wifi usb adapter
[01:56] <arrenlex> CaBlGuY: The .bin file will tell you if you need to run it with sudo. And yes, same folder, of course.
[01:56] <clearscreen> CaBlGuY just depends on the bin file
[01:56] <CaBlGuY> k, gimme a sec..  bbiab
[01:57] <abo> I found the other day someone who used wine to run IE on linux, ... anyone knows about running msn messenger on linux?
[01:57] <zho> ???
[01:57] <clearscreen> try it abo :P
[01:57] <zho> use GAIM
[01:57] <will__> abo, use GAIM?
[01:57] <arrenlex> abo: I know about it, and it doesn't work well.
[01:57] <arrenlex> abo: Use GAIM. =P
[01:57] <clearscreen> or if you like the msn theme more: amsn
[01:57] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Hey you guys- you were just talking about Teamspeak - is there a Ubuntu version???
[01:58] <clearscreen> I believe there's a linux version of teamspeak
[01:58] <kitche> monkey050-Ubuntu: you can only get Teamspeak from their website
[01:58] <abo> arrenlex,will__, I'm using GAIM.. but i miss many of the nice annimations/video/audio features of msn
[01:58] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I know that, I'm a Server Admin.
[01:58] <zho> why i can't order from shipit for 6.10?
[01:58] <mike1980> can anyone help please where do I configure proftpd from please? GUI? I want to be able to upload pages remotely to var/www
[01:58] <arrenlex> abo: a) What animations are these? b) amsn supports video and audio conversations.
[01:58] <ski-worklap> anyone tried beryl on ubuntu?
[01:58] <will__> monkey050-Ubuntu, yes there is a linux version
[01:58] <clearscreen> abo: try amsn, and if that doesn't work out, I guess there is no choice then to go for wine + msn messenger
[01:59] <bruenig> ski-worklap, #ubuntu-xgl
[01:59] <kitche> zho: dapper is still being supported
[01:59] <khaladan> is there any way i can try to FORCE the ubuntu amd64 install to think that i have an amd64 compat. CPU?
 I know that, I'm a Server Admin. > then what's the problem?
[01:59] <zho> kitche: ic..
[01:59] <ski-worklap> bruenig, thanks!
[01:59] <bruenig> ski-worklap, your welcome!
[01:59] <lazerbeak> any ideas clearscreen?
[01:59] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I didn't know about a Linux version until now
[02:00] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I'm a WINDOWS PERSON.  *girly scream*
[02:00] <un_operateur1> sudo dpkg-reconfigure --priority low proftpd  << might work
[02:00] <clearscreen> ah; lazerbeak is it a broadcom?
[02:00] <rever> Hi is there a systray applet for evolution?
[02:00] <magic_ninja> monkey then dual boot lol at least for the first 6 months

[02:00] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Lol
[02:00] <gilligan_> hi
[02:00] <abo> arrenlex, annimation in msn, I think they call them winks, and there is the audio messages (not the full audio message)... anyway I didn't know amsn had audio/video
[02:00] <magic_ninja> i did
[02:00] <magic_ninja> now i am full fledged windows free
[02:00] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Ubuntu is on my old crappy computer.
[02:00] <arrenlex> abo: Oh. Nothing supports winks as far as I know because they are Flash.
[02:00] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Windows ate itself and I wanted to use it somehow as a "toy backup"
[02:00] <magic_ninja> i got ubuntu on my new comp and this old laptop i aquired
[02:01] <CaBlGuY> arrenlex:  seems to be working..  at this point..  :p
[02:01] <gilligan_> does anyone here using mergedfb with a ATI radeon and two TFT monitors ? (not a laptop + tft ) ? I am having some problems and it would be nice to see a working xorg.conf file
[02:01] <lazerbeak> its a ralink RT2571W
[02:01] <monkey050-Ubuntu> But my new computer is a Windows thing.  I use it for podcasting and web editing and all other windows stuff.
[02:01] <arrenlex> CaBlGuY: Good to hear.
[02:01] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Like... Windows.
[02:01] <lazerbeak> I have the right driver
[02:01] <abo> clearscreen, arrenlex, amsn says there is a newer version, shouldn't the ubuntu update manager tell me about that and update my amsn?
[02:01] <lazerbeak> i just have clue how to install it
[02:01] <arrenlex> abo: Not if the newer version is not yet in the ubuntu repositories.
[02:01] <clearscreen> lazerbeak this shows you how to install ralink drivers; http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=296281
[02:01] <zho> magic_ninja: if you have good internet connection it's ok, but if you have bad connection windows is better hahaha...
[02:02] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Do Linux FFox download speeds differ from windows ones?  Maybe it's just the server I'm downloading from.
[02:02] <overridex> can i at least change how many pixels are shown when a panel is on auto-hide mode?
[02:02] <will__> overridex, read the gone documentation :)

[02:04] <zho> intrepidus: what happend to your grub?
[02:04] <intrepidus> Sorry.
[02:04] <intrepidus> It's not what happened, it's what I need to do: I need to reinstall grub.
[02:04] <arrenlex> intrepidus: What are you on right now?
[02:04] <clearscreen> don't think it only worked on KDE, arrenlex.. I used to use it on windows; so it's probably also compatible with gnome
[02:04] <intrepidus> I'm told if I reinstall grub with Ubuntu as the primary drive, and XP on another drive, it will recognize XP and I can dual boot.
[02:04] <intrepidus> arrenlex: Ubuntu at the moment.
[02:04] <arrenlex> clearscreen: kmeleon is a windows-only program.
[02:04] <khaladan> Hey, is there a kernel option to set the CPU type? I'm worried that Linux might be guessing incorrectly. it's supposed to be amd64 compatible.
[02:04] <intrepidus> I found the thread on how to reinstall grub, so that's not a huge problem.
[02:04] <clearscreen> arrenlex it is?
[02:04] <Gigaamd> i need help on installing libdvdcss2.  i am having a difficult time
[02:04] <arrenlex> clearscreen: Yes.
[02:04] <magic_ninja> cedega doesn't display buttons when i run the cedega setup wizard from a fresh install, has anyone found a fix for this
[02:05] <intrepidus> The larger problem is identifying which drive to reinstall grub on, because I don't understand grub ordering well. :/
[02:05] <arrenlex> intrepidus: How did you get into ubuntu if you need to reinstall grub?
[02:05] <limesoap> how can I get network-manager to work on 6.10? I have installed network-manager and network-manager gnome and it still doesn't find my net connections?
[02:05] <monkey050-Ubuntu> Sudo installing now
[02:05] <zho> hd0,1 means hdd 1 partition 1
[02:05] <zho> it's that true?
[02:05] <intrepidus> arrenlex: As I said above, I need to reinstall grub to get a dual boot.
[02:05] <arrenlex> zho: No. hdd1, partition 2.
[02:06] <zho> magic_ninja: any cedega package on ubuntu?
[02:06] <LjL> zho: no
[02:06] <intrepidus> But, how do I determine which hdd is 0, 1, 2, 3, etc? I have two SATA channels with a master/slave each. So, is channel 1 hard drive 0 and 1, and channel 2 hard drive 2 and 3?
[02:06] <magic_ninja> zho: what do you mean?
[02:06] <arrenlex> intrepidus: If grub is working why do you need to reinstall it? Just change the settings.
[02:06] <magic_ninja> v5.2
[02:06] <intrepidus> arrenlex: I've yet to find a thread detailing how to just change it...and I don't know grub well enough.
[02:06] <Gigaamd> i need help on installing libdvdcss2.  i am having a difficult time
[02:06] <un_operateur1> why change something that ain' broke
[02:06] <un_operateur1> ?
[02:07] <arrenlex> intrepidus: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:07] <intrepidus> Because it is broke.
[02:07] <un_operateur1> whats broken?
[02:07] <arrenlex> intrepidus: Add an entry like this: http://arrenlex.diff.be/win
[02:07] <foo> I just stuck my new hard drives in a new system that has a different motherboard and what not. The drive is on /dev/hdb instead of /dev/hda like it was.. so I edited /etc/fstab to what it should be. Anything else I need to do? Still looks like I'm having some issues
[02:07] <arrenlex> intrepidus: Where (hd0,0) is the location of your windows partition: (hd0,0) = windows on first hard drive, first partition.
[02:08] <limesoap> I have followed everything at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/NetworkManager
[02:08] <CaBlGuY> ok, out..
[02:08] <CaBlGuY> thanks arrenlex o/
[02:08] <foo> Actually, Ubuntu starts up, but hangs on "Loading essential drivers." Bah
[02:08] <arrenlex> intrepidus: If you've forgotten, you can use sudo fdisk -l to list all your partitions.
[02:08] <magic_ninja> zho: i tried cedega 5.2
[02:08] <limesoap> it does detect the wired connection and connects
[02:08] <limesoap> but not the wireless
[02:09] <zho> magic_ninja: ic...
[02:09] <MakotoOgawa> http://pastebin.ca/279450  <--- can anyone explain that dmesg to me
[02:09] <Gigaamd> i need help on installing libdvdcss2.  i am having a difficult time.  It shows errors problems
[02:09] <intrepidus> arrenlex: It doesn't list the drive if I do fdisk -l, though.
[02:09] <intrepidus> arrenlex: I'm blind.
[02:09] <arrenlex> intrepidus: sudo fdisk -l ?
[02:10] <arrenlex> intrepidus: ... for real?
[02:10] <precious> hello
[02:10] <intrepidus> arrenlex: Sorry, I couldn't read. It's there.
[02:10] <astronouth7303> (I did this before, but that was awhile ago) sound isn't working at all. all the appropriate levels seem to be up, nothing muted, hardware seems ok. But I can't hear a thing. How do I track it down and fix it?
[02:10] <arrenlex> intrepidus: ...oh. o_o
[02:10] <precious> its ok
[02:10] <vanberge> if i'm runing 6.06 on a laptop (not this computer)  can i upgrade it to 6.10 with apt?  i thought there was an upgrade dist or dist upgrade... something like that
[02:10] <intrepidus> arrenlex: So it tells me it's /dev/sdb...does that mean it's hd(1,0)?
[02:10] <kitche> vanberge: update-manager -c
[02:10] <precious> hello
[02:11] <arrenlex> intrepidus: /dev/sdb is an entire hard drive, not a partition. I'm pretty sure your windows is supposed to be on a partition.
[02:11] <vanberge> kitche, you always help me!  :-)   thanks!!
[02:11] <intrepidus> Er, sorry, yes, meant that-/dev/sdb1.
[02:11] <astronouth7303> crimsun_ had said to post the results from amixer
[02:11] <green_earz> Gigaamd: paste the error that http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/  and put the link back here
[02:11] <arrenlex> intrepidus: Yep, (hd1,0)
[02:11] <intrepidus> arrenlex: Ok, I'll give it a shot then. Thank you, a ton!
[02:11] <arrenlex> intrepidus: Just change that file, save it, and reboot. You don't have to reinstall anything; grub reads options from there every time.
[02:11] <arrenlex> intrepidus: Good luck.
[02:12] <lazerbeak> clearscreen thanks
[02:12] <precious> what
[02:12] <clearscreen> yw lazerbeak
[02:12] <precious> i dnt understand
[02:13] <lazerbeak> its very compicated
[02:14] <precious> i dnt understand
[02:14] <arrenlex> precious: I don't think anyone even said anything to you. What don't you understand?
[02:15] <Arwen> question - if I install the new kernel version from the security repository, will I have to rebuild my kernel modules or is this version backwards compatible?
[02:16] <eltech> hey guys .. something different in the partitionin scheme in the new 6.10?
[02:16] <precious> it so very dificult the that u used
[02:16] <green_earz> astronouth7303: check to see what the sound card driver name should be at >  http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/   then use the cammand : lsmod | grep snd      to see if it installed
[02:16] <Arwen> eltech, not reallky
[02:16] <eltech> seems like there is no more slider to make it easier to setup dual boot systes
[02:16] <precious> hi
[02:16] <Drako60> http://pastebin.ca/279450  <--- can anyone explain that dmesg to me
[02:17] <precious> hi
[02:17] <LjL> precious: questions? ask.
[02:18] <eltech> should i have partitioned the hard drive for ubuntu or could it have done it itslef?
[02:18] <eltech> itself*
[02:18] <precious> what is ur name pls
[02:18] <arrenlex> eltech: The installer will take care of it.
[02:18] <LjL> eltech: it can do it by itself
[02:18] <precious> f
[02:18] <eltech> ok
[02:18] <precious> u
[02:18] <LjL> precious: ?
[02:18] <arrenlex> ...?
[02:18] <eltech> so ill just re-merge the partition
[02:18] <eltech> and let ubuntu do it
[02:18] <intrepidus> Oy.
[02:18] <precious> what
[02:18] <Arwen> eltech, not reallky
[02:19] <precious> balo dry
[02:19] <Arwen> eltech, not reallky
[02:19] <arrenlex> intrepidus: Problems?
[02:19] <intrepidus> Well, that didn't go so hot. When I chose XP, it just sat there blinking a single _ at me.
[02:19] <precious> no
[02:19] <LjL> precious, are you just churning words randomly...?
[02:19] <m12> how do I remove the "trash" and "computer" icons from the desktop?
[02:19] <Arwen> question - if I install the new kernel version from the security repository, will I have to rebuild my kernel modules or is this version backwards compatible?
[02:19] <intrepidus> arrenlex: copy-pasted the code from that link and changed the drive to the hd(1,0) to reflect my system...just a blinknig line.
[02:19] <arrenlex> precious: The cheese moon will emancipate cold water kittens by daylight.
[02:19] <Arwen> m12, run gconf-editor and go to apps>nautilus and uncheck the "show foo icon" box
[02:20] <bhudda> We are all but travelers in time and space
[02:20] <LjL> Arwen, what i know is that it isn't just a security patch from Ubuntu, but actually a new kernel revision from upstream... <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:20] <precious> what do u mean by that
[02:20] <arrenlex> precious: Absolutely nothing. Do you have a question to ask?
[02:20] <Arwen> LjL, eww.... rebuild....
[02:20] <Gigaamd> Ok here is the link you request.  Please help
[02:20] <Gigaamd> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37091/
[02:20] <precious> no
[02:20] <eltech> Arwen is my thinking right and the preparing was a bad move if i didnt need any advance mount point options?
[02:20] <eviltwin> ok, so I get how to setup my theme, the gdm theme and the splash screen image
[02:21] <eviltwin> but I don't get howto change the background colour when the splash screen is there
[02:21] <arrenlex> Gigaamd: You need to install libdvdcss2 first.
[02:21] <Arwen> eltech, sorry, those messages to you were mistakes - my scrollback history was wiped at your comment, lol - ignore it
[02:21] <eviltwin> or how to change the default theme for new users
[02:21] <Gigaamd> where?  i download the deb package
[02:21] <arrenlex> intrepidus: ...you're sure the partition is correct?
[02:21] <Arwen> LjL, anway, update-manager says it's still 2.6.17-10
[02:21] <eltech> oh
[02:21] <eltech> so
[02:21] <datil> hi
[02:21] <eltech> something different in the partitionin scheme in the new 6.10?
[02:22] <arrenlex> intrepidus: Oh! I think I know... a second...
[02:22] <green_earz> Gigaamd:   sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2
[02:22] <eltech> seems like there is no more slider to make it easier to setup dual boot systems
[02:22] <intrepidus> arrenlex: fdisk -l says the boot (*) is on /dev/sdb1, format NTFS...has to be, I think.
[02:22] <Arwen> green_earz, doesn't work that way
[02:22] <m12> Arwen:  I don't see a "show foo icon"  box anywhere.
[02:22] <datil> is the Marvell Yukon ethernet controller supported in 6.10? (asus p5b motherboard)
[02:22] <eltech> should i have partitioned the hard drive for ubuntu or could it have done it itself
[02:22] <intrepidus> datil: Yep, mine works. :)
[02:22] <LjL> Arwen: apt-cache policy says Installed: <IP_ADDRESS>-10.34
[02:22] <datil> intrepidus, what board do you have?
[02:22] <intrepidus> datil: I have it on a P5GDC, no problems at all.
[02:22] <arrenlex> intrepidus: try adding "makeactive" between the savedefault and chainloader lines.
[02:22] <eltech> is my thinking right and the preparing was a bad move if i didnt need any advance mount point options?
[02:22] <Arwen> m12, terminal > gconf-editor > apps > nautilus > desktop
[02:22] <Arwen> sorry
[02:22] <intrepidus> arrenlex: Ok, I'll try
[02:22] <LjL> Arwen: the package *name* still ends with 2.6.17-10, yes, but i guess that doesn't really mean much
[02:22] <eltech> and let ubuntu resize and create the partitions?
[02:23] <datil> intrepidus, i have a p5b deluxe which has two Marvell ethernet controllers.. i was using 6.10 livecd and apparently it detected one of the two but i couldn't connect to internet
[02:23] <eviltwin> datil, my marvel yukon nic working with 6.10 (asus p5n32-sli, I think)
[02:23] <Arwen> LjL, I see.... damn it, it replaces the old kernel, I can't go back if I get a build error
[02:23] <Gigaamd> green_earz: it says the package is no longer available.
[02:23] <green_earz> Arwen: the error out put say it need it, from the paste > libdvdcss2-deb depends on libdvdcss2;
[02:23] <astronouth7303> the amixer output is http://www.astro73.com/pastebin/pastebin.php?show=1
[02:23] <schisms> Do you people think that ubuntu is a good host for linux from scratch?
[02:24] <datil> eviltwin, ifconfig shows one as detected but then through gnome setting the ip, gateway and dns correctly it does nothing
[02:24] <ianp> you know what's one of the most annoying parts of ubuntu's UI?
[02:24] <schisms> Well?
[02:24] <m12> Arwen:  no boxes under Desktop either for me.  none that say that for any of the branches under nautilus
[02:24] <ianp> grabbing the bottom right corner of a window
[02:24] <LjL> Arwen: i suppose you're right... and i've never tried downgrading a kernel
[02:24] <eviltwin> datil, I haven't actually tested whether it WORKED ;)
[02:24] <Arwen> green_earz, sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh
[02:24] <drkm> is there anyway I can get Gnome to confirm a deletion when I press del?
[02:24] <ianp> i cant just grab the area, i have to move the mouse exactly on the corner
[02:24] <astronouth7303> crimsun_: you get that?
[02:24] <eviltwin> I only knew it was detected... so I guess I dunno
[02:24] <schisms> Do you people think that ubuntu is a good host for linux from scratch?
[02:24] <monkey050-Ubuntu> OK now I need some Teamspeak help
[02:24] <datil> eviltwin, heh..
[02:24] <green_earz> Arwen: thanks for that
[02:24] <Arwen> LjL, I remember that it was possible to have multiple vmlinux's on previous ubuntus...
[02:25] <arrenlex> schisms: Could you rephrase your question please? No comprendo.
[02:25] <eviltwin> I would test it, but I use wireless while I have my desktop at home
[02:25] <eviltwin> :)
[02:25] <schisms> Sorry.
[02:25] <monkey050-Ubuntu> The Linux version has me set to automatically muted headphones and microphone and I think i might have to change the audio device.  I need to know what to change.
[02:25] <Arwen> LjL, techinally, you just remove the vmlinux and add an older one
[02:25] <green_earz> Gigaamd: Arwen say :   sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh
[02:25] <schisms> I'm building an lfs system and I was wondering whether or not ubuntu has the right stuff.
[02:25] <Arwen> green_earz, yes - it'll fetch a deb and install it
[02:25] <schisms> An lfs system is a linux from scratch system.
[02:25] <Gigaamd> yes i do thanks arwen!!!!
[02:25] <LjL> Arwen, i think it's still quite possible to have multiple kernels. but one thing is having two different *packages* - those should be handled nicely, get their Grub entries each, etc.... but in this case, it's the same package, just a new package version. that's different
[02:26] <schisms> Basically, you create your own distro
[02:26] <schisms> It's good practice.
[02:26] <green_earz> Arwen: nice one
[02:26] <Arwen> LjL, yea - don't like that.... should be multiple packages...
[02:26] <Arwen> some of us have to compile source drivers...
[02:26] <schisms> What do you think arrenlex?
[02:27] <arrenlex> schisms: Not familiar with lfs. Sorry.
[02:27] <LjL> Arwen: well, one could assume that same package version = binary module compatibility. if it were my computer, honestly, i'd probably just try it... but then many things i do on my computer aren't quite recommendable ;-)
[02:28] <Arwen> LjL, true - heck, this new one might even fix compatibility with a stable version of my drivers...
[02:28] <Arwen> though I doubt it
[02:28] <intrepidus> arrenlex: No change. Do I need the kernel and initd lines or somethnig?
[02:29] <arrenlex> intrepidus: As awesome as it would be to have a Linux kernel running under Windows.... no, you don't. =P
[02:29] <Mando> ok i have a problem.. my graphics card used to average around 2000 fps when i used glxgears to check
[02:29] <schisms> Don't worry about it.
[02:29] <arrenlex> intrepidus: Have you ever run Windows from a slave drive before? I don't know if it's capable. I know for a fact you can't install Windows to a logical partition...
[02:29] <Mando> now that ive installed the fglrx driver.. it averages 8000 fps on xgl, and only 300 on the normal session!
[02:29] <intrepidus> arrenlex: Heh. Well to make sure I'm not missing something simple, maybe something's not lined up right, so here's the order (if it matters): Ubuntu first, followed by XP, then Ubuntu (recovery mode), and finally memtest86. Is that all good and in order?
[02:29] <schisms> Are there any good software dev tools that go smoothly with ubuntu?
[02:29] <Arwen> 'nother question - is it possible to switch from ubuntu to kubuntu (i.e., install kubuntu-desktop and remove all the ubuntu-desktop related packages)?
[02:30] <intrepidus> arrenlex: Actually, no. I thought it was on the other SATA master, but apparently not. Think that's my issue?
[02:30] <Arwen> schisms, gedit
[02:30] <schisms> Yes Arwen
[02:30] <LjL> Arwen: it's possible to do the first part, it's harder to do the second part
[02:30] <Mando> anyone?
[02:30] <Arwen> LjL, because of configuration files?
[02:30] <slipttees> hello
[02:30] <LjL> Arwen: installing kubuntu-desktop is a matter of, well, installing it. but you can't just say "now remove all ubuntu-desktop related packages" to APT
[02:30] <schisms> You could download the kde enviroment
[02:30] <arrenlex> intrepidus: It's a random guess based on almost unrelated snippets of information I've heard a long time. Please take them as such.
[02:30] <eltech> anyone before i give this a try and waste time
[02:30] <abo> another question, does wine support other architectures then x86?
[02:30] <LjL> Arwen: no, just because uninstalling ubuntu-desktop itself won't uninstall anything else
[02:31] <Arwen> LjL, could I search for dependant backages on ubuntu-desktop and purge those?
[02:31] <slipttees> please, somebody repost this bug for me:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37094/
[02:31] <arrenlex> a long time *ago
[02:31] <eltech> should i not partition the hard drive and let ubuntu do so?
[02:31] <slipttees> :)
[02:31] <Mando> please anyone help.. graphics are very important to me.. i need to get my fps rate atleast back to 2000 fps
[02:31] <Arwen> LjL, or will that screw me over later?
[02:31] <intrepidus> arrenlex: I'll give it a shot. Be back in a cable switch :)
[02:31] <schisms> arwen
[02:31] <Mando> where are all the helpful people of the ubuntu community
[02:31] <LjL> Arwen: that's possible, it's a lot of packages though. what i usually do is remove libgnome, that way most gnome-related stuff goes away...
[02:31] <LjL> !offline | Arwen
[02:31] <ubotu> Arwen: If you need to download Ubuntu packages using another machine or OS, http://apt.byethost14.com/ may help you with determining which dependencies to fetch
[02:31] <schisms> I recommend simply installing the KDE environment.
[02:31] <Arwen> LjL, ?
[02:31] <LjL> Arwen: also this might be of some help, but note it's experimental enough
[02:31] <schisms> And checking it out.
[02:32] <Arwen> schisms, I know - I want GNOME and it's stuff gone though
[02:32] <Arwen> its*
[02:32] <slipttees> PLEASE , somebody repost this bug for me:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37094/
[02:32] <schisms> I think you should just install kubuntu, you wouldn't have to go through all of the trouble.
[02:32] <drkm> is there anyway I can get Gnome to confirm a deletion when I press del?
[02:32] <schisms> good question.
[02:32] <arrenlex> Arwen: You want gnome gone? http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde
[02:32] <Arwen> schisms, low disk space, lol - I only reserved 8G for system
[02:33] <schisms> Ah
[02:33] <Arwen> arrenlex, hmm
[02:33] <schisms> What are you duel booting with?
[02:33] <Arwen> schisms, nothing - I just allocated the rest to /home
[02:33] <Mando> please someone help me
[02:33] <LjL> Arwen: anyway, if you remove libgnome, not everything gnome-related is guaranteed to go away... but in practice, i think you should be good to go honestly
[02:34] <Arwen> LjL, alrighty
[02:34] <Arwen> say, what's with the lost+found folders on all the partitions?
[02:34] <LjL> !lost+found | Arwen
[02:34] <ubotu> Arwen: lost+found is where !fsck places any files it gleans from a corrupt filesystem.  These are files which had become unlinked from their parent directories.
[02:34] <Arwen> ah
[02:34] <Arwen> LjL, if I deleted it, would it pwn me later?
[02:34] <intrepidus> arrenlex: Well, no luck there - they're both already set as masters :P
[02:34] <LjL> Arwen: i wouldn't delete it
[02:35] <phrizer> How do i make an application the default application for a document?
[02:35] <arrenlex> intrepidus: I meant, the first hard drive. hd0.
[02:35] <Arwen> LjL, if I make a new one, would that fix it?
[02:35] <LjL> Arwen: you can delete the files it contains, if after checking them you see you don't care about them
[02:35] <intrepidus> arrenlex: I'm confused?
[02:35] <arrenlex> And gone, I see.
[02:35] <LjL> Arwen: i'm not sure. i think fsck will create one anyway next time it needs to. when i said "i wouldn't delete it", i just meant i wasn't entirely sure of the consequences... but they shouldn't be too bad i think
[02:35] <intrepidus> Oops.
[02:35] <arrenlex> ...and hi. xD
[02:36] <Arwen> ok
[02:36] <intrepidus> AIGLX was angry, it ate xchat./
[02:36] <Mando> i thought people are supposed to get help here :(
[02:36] <arrenlex> intrepidus: Again, I remind you that I have no idea what I'm babbling about.
[02:36] <cyber_brain_mfkg> hello! i need help! i tryed to uninstall rhitmic box and after i restarted X gnome is not as it used 2 be! i can't run synaptic(it says : wrong password) and panels do not work as they should :S
[02:36] <Arwen> btw - I lacked foresight and made my /home partition XFS - is there anything wrong with that?
[02:36] <arrenlex> intrepidus: That said, maybe windows doesn't like being on hd1. Maybe it likes hd0.
[02:36] <intrepidus> arrenlex: I've got less. So what's this about the hd(0)?
[02:36] <intrepidus> arrenlex: But won't that result in the Windows bootloader firing up first?
[02:36] <LjL> Mando: i can't speak for the rest of the people of course, but i have nvidia. hardly can help with ati issues
[02:36] <intrepidus> arrenlex: Or should I just rearrange the sequence?
[02:36] <cyber_brain_mfkg> what 2 do?
[02:37] <arrenlex> intrepidus: Whatever is in the MBR will run.
[02:37] <Arwen> cyber_brain_mfkg, 1. stop talking in txt. 2. what's rhitmic box?
[02:37] <arrenlex> intrepidus: Of the first drive... I think.
[02:37] <Mando> oh ok
[02:37] <LjL> Arwen: bad... it's a filesystems. some people like some filesystems, other people like other filesystems. i'm just staying with ext3 because it's known to be quite reliable
[02:37] <intrepidus> arrenlex: Guess I'll play some more then
[02:37] <arrenlex> intrepidus: so you would have to reinstall grub... I think... ...I really don't know what I'm talking about at this point. I'll stop talking before I do more harm than good.
[02:37] <arrenlex> Good luck. = /
[02:37] <LjL> if not exceptionally fast or feature-packed
[02:38] <cyber_brain_mfkg> *rythmbox
[02:38] <Arwen> lol - whatever, when it kills me, it'll have killed me
[02:38] <klees> what's the command to install/upgrade a *.deb package?
[02:38] <arrenlex> Arwen: You're discussing ReiserFS, aren't you.
[02:38] <Arwen> does anyone know how to change from octal permissions to access control lists?
[02:38] <Arwen> arrenlex, XFS
[02:38] <intrepidus> arrenlex: One last question: the tutorial for re-installing grub says to type root(hd0,0) and then "setup hd(0)"...did they mean "setup hd(0,0)" or is that right?
[02:38] <klees> i would like to upgrade the older version
[02:38] <LjL> arrenlex: XFS actually
[02:38] <arrenlex> Arwen: Oh. That's not ironic then.
[02:38] <monkey050-Ubuntu> I've got some work to do.  I'll be back later.  bye
[02:39] <Arwen> arrenlex, lol :-P
[02:39] <Arwen> say, has Hans Reiser been convicted yet?
[02:39] <monkey050-WinXP> Bye bye!
[02:39] <LjL> !offtopic | Arwen, sorry, got to give you this
[02:39] <ubotu> Arwen, sorry, got to give you this: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:39] <arrenlex> Arwen: He's pled not-guilty last I heard... but then I get all my news from his wikipedia entry.
[02:39] <Arwen> so - I'd really like ntfs-style access control lists instead of octal permissions, how can I do this?
[02:40] <cyber_brain_mfkg> Arwen: rhythmbox!
[02:40] <LjL> Arwen: that's supported on ext3 as well
[02:40] <LjL> !ack | Arwen
[02:40] <ubotu> ack: Kanji code converter. In component universe, is extra. Version 1.39-8 (edgy), package size 16 kB, installed size 92 kB
[02:40] <Arwen> cyber_brain_mfkg, removing it shouldn't break anything - can you print ~/.xsession-errors to !pastebin ?
[02:40] <cyber_brain_mfkg> Arwen: i think i removed something that gnome use
[02:40] <Arwen> LjL, how?
[02:40] <Arwen> LjL, more details?
[02:40] <LjL> Arwen: blah, i meant acl of course... anyway, it would just have given you a package entry
[02:40] <Arwen> !acl
[02:41] <ubotu> acl: Access control list utilities. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.2.39-1ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 42 kB, installed size 220 kB
[02:41] <LjL> Arwen, i have to dig the details myself. i just live with octal permissions (though, well, i don't use the octal notation usually :P)
[02:41] <Arwen> LjL, meh - for a couple folders I need multiple groups
[02:41] <cyber_brain_mfkg> Arwen: what?
[02:41] <LjL> Arwen: hold on a minute
[02:42] <Arwen> cyber_brain_mfkg, ~/.xsession-errors is a file, it has an error report - put it to !pastebin
[02:42] <drkm> my secondary hard-drive which I have mounted sounds like it is turning off after 5 minutes in inactivity.. how do I make it longer?
[02:42] <Arwen> drkm, is that setting in your bios?
[02:43] <drkm> Arwen: I don't think so. It wasn't doing this when I had windows installed..
[02:44] <LjL> Arwen: what you need are mostly the "setfacl" and "getfacl" commands, which are indeed in the "acl" package
[02:44] <cyber_brain_mfkg> Arwen: i can't find that file!
[02:44] <Arwen> LjL, more info? I don't just want to install stuff
[02:44] <eltech> anyone know a utility that can merge partitions?
[02:44] <Arwen> cyber_brain_mfkg, it's in your home folder, is hidden, and is called .xsession-errors
[02:44] <Gigaamd> QT can i believe eltech
[02:44] <Arwen> eltech, gparted.... but it's not worth it
[02:44] <eltech> Arwen gparted is great .. i used it to create the partition
[02:45] <LjL> Arwen: i have some more info, but... they're on slides in italian ;) that stuff just happened to be explained some weeks ago at uni. i didn't listen though
[02:45] <eltech> Gigaamd qtparted on a live cd like gparted?
[02:45] <Arwen> LjL, a gui tool would be nice, lol - I'm not very smart
[02:45] <LjL> Arwen: http://security.dico.unimi.it/sicurezza0607/stuff/02b_lab_sicurezza_18-10-2006.pdf - you can probably glean something from the examples
[02:45] <Arwen> LjL, I thought you said they were italian?
[02:45] <LjL> !eiciel | Arwen
[02:45] <ubotu> eiciel: graphical editor for POSIX ACLs and extended user attributes. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.2-1 (edgy), package size 454 kB, installed size 1076 kB
[02:46] <Arwen> LjL, yay... lol - is it GTK or QT?
[02:46] <LjL> Arwen: they are indeed... but the examples are still Linux commands :)
[02:46] <Arwen> LjL, localized?
[02:46] <LjL> Arwen: haven't checked, but the keywords i searched for are "gnome acl" ;)
[02:46] <Arwen> ok
[02:46] <Arwen> gotta go
[02:46] <LjL> Arwen: no
[02:47] <dredhammer> hi can someone tell me why the mplayer plugin for firefox launches the embedded video in  window outside the browser? is there a config argument i need to fix this?
[02:47] <cyber_brain_mfkg> !pastebin
[02:47] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[02:47] <LjL> eiciel actually says it integrated with Nautilus... wonder if there's something similar for KDE. doesn't seem to.
[02:49] <cyber_brain_mfkg> someone?
[02:49] <mistone> I think the linux-wlan-ng package should be installed by defualt
[02:50] <drkm> if /home is a mounted partition, should I have a problem trying to mount /dev/hda3 as /home/media ?
[02:51] <LjL> drkm: no... but perhaps you should consider using /media/something
[02:51] <cyber_brain_mfkg> can someone help me with my gnome
[02:51] <cyber_brain_mfkg> ???
[02:51] <cyber_brain_mfkg> :(
[02:51] <drkm> LjL, ah sorry I meant /home/user/media
[02:52] <LjL> drkm: that works as well
[02:52] <cyber_brain_mfkg> drkm: can u help me?
[02:53] <drkm> cyber_brain_mfkg: whats the problem?
[02:54] <Sith_Man> arrenlex
[02:54] <cyber_brain_mfkg> drkm: i tryed to uninstal rhythmbox and i probably removed something that gnom uses
[02:54] <Sith_Man> i got ubuntu working. i had to make a GRUB floppy. and now it works. im so happy.
[02:54] <drkm> cyber_brain_mfkg: what is gnome doing that it shouldn't be?
[02:54] <der_steppenwolf> hi
[02:55] <jorgelopez100> hello
[02:55] <der_steppenwolf> I use cvs to checkout a project, but it seems the file names of the project are encoded in iso8859-1. So, when I see the file names I see '?' characters. I can change the encoding to UTF-8 by using the command convmv. However, if I want to see the differences using diff with my files and the files in the CVS obviously they are different. Is there any other way to work more transparently?
[02:55] <cyber_brain_mfkg> drkm: and now desktop is strange,don't have icons,cant open synaptic(it says wrong password),keyboard is strange...
[02:55] <cyber_brain_mfkg> *don't have icons in menu and panel(some of them)
[02:56] <drkm> cyber_brain_mfkg: sounds like a problem with your home directory
[02:56] <n0deal> anyone wind up with a xen 2.6 as their default OS options in Grub when they ran the last update?
[02:56] <cyber_brain_mfkg> can open theme
[02:56] <ryanakca> how do I make all new files in a directory have 755 permissions?
[02:56] <jorgelopez100> somebody knows how to install webmin in ubuntu ?
[02:56] <cyber_brain_mfkg> my home?
[02:56] <cyber_brain_mfkg> what to do?
[02:56] <drkm> cyber_brain_mfkg: /home/username
[02:56] <n0deal> ryanakca: sudo chmod 755 *
[02:56] <drkm> cyber_brain_mfkg: I'm not too sure as I can't tell what it's removed..
[02:56] <n0deal> ryanakca: in that directory
[02:57] <drkm> cyber_brain_mfkg: probably see if someone with a bit more experience than me can help you
[02:57] <ryanakca> n0deal: that makes all current / existing files 755, not the ones that will be created
[02:57] <drkm> cyber_brain_mfkg: I haven't used linux in years until recently and I'm still brushing up
[02:57] <ablyss> jorgelopez100: usually downloading source and ./configure ; make && make install
[02:57] <n0deal> ryanakca: sorry I misunderstood
[02:57] <cyber_brain_mfkg> ok! thanx anyway
[02:57] <ablyss> sudo make install
[02:57] <ryanakca> n0deal: don't worry about it
[02:57] <cyber_brain_mfkg> anyone knows how to repair gnome problem?
[02:58] <drkm> cyber_brain_mfkg: np
[02:58] <ryanakca> cyber_brain_mfkg: what's your bnome problem?
[02:58] <ablyss> jorgelopez100: webmin usually wants the root password.. so you will need to create a root passwd
[02:58] <nofeardjb> where can i find the small iso for ubuntu? (its around 7mb)
[02:58] <infidel> anyone use a palm in ubuntu?
[02:58] <cyber_brain_mfkg> ryanakca:  i tryed to uninstal rhythmbox and i probably removed something that gnom uses
[02:59] <cyber_brain_mfkg> ryanakca: and now desktop is strange,don't have icons,cant open synaptic(it says wrong password),keyboard is strange...
[02:59] <cyber_brain_mfkg> don't have icons in menu and panel(some of them)
[02:59] <ryanakca> cyber_brain_mfkg: go to a terminal and go "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"...

[03:00] <nofeardjb> anyone know where i can find the mini iso installation of ubuntu?
[03:00] <ryanakca> cyber_brain_mfkg: ctrl-alt-f1 , log in with your username and pass... to get back, go ctrl-alt-f7 ... might be F8 or F9 on your system... then run the apt command
[03:00] <LjL> nofeardjb: yes
[03:00] <cyber_brain_mfkg> ryanakca:  and now should i reset X?
[03:00] <nofeardjb> LjL: i love you
[03:00] <nofeardjb> LjL: what's the link?

[03:13] <progek> Hi room, can someone help me with a MySQL question?
[03:13] <agent> !ask | progek
[03:13] <ubotu> progek: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:13] <cyber_brain_mfkg> ryanakca: same thing happends
[03:14] <cyber_brain_mfkg> maybe i should reset system
[03:14] <progek> I cannot connect to mysql from another computer. I have installed mysql on my server which works fine. However, if i try to connect to mysql from another machine it states that it cannot connect. For example-> mysql -h myHost -u user -p does not work when I am on another machine.
[03:15] <progek> I also notice..
[03:15] <progek> that nmapping localhost shows the mysql port open but not nmapping my lan ip

[03:15] <TheGuru> Question, how do I turn my microphone amplifier off?
[03:16] <TheGuru> I want to use my mic on skype, but without the amp
[03:16] <cyber_brain_mfkg> ryanakca: r u there?
[03:16] <TheGuru> I have all that unwanted feedback
[03:16] <ryanakca> cyber_brain_mfkg: back, sorry... no clue
[03:17] <cyber_brain_mfkg> look what happends when i try to change my theme
[03:17] <cyber_brain_mfkg> The default theme schemas could not be found on your system. This means that you probably don't have metacity installed, or that your gconf is configured incorrectly.
[03:17] <cyber_brain_mfkg> metacity is instaled
[03:17] <agent> progek: by default mysql does not allow external connections for security reasons - check your config file and more info is in the mysql documentation
[03:18] <progek> agent, thanks
[03:18] <agent> !mysql > progek
[03:18] <agent> !mysql | progek
[03:18] <ubotu> progek: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[03:18] <TheGuru> Anyone?
[03:18] <agent> progek: that has information on how to change the config file to enable connections

[03:20] <MasterLexx> whatimpact has the number of inodes on the speed of a filesystem like ext3fs?
[03:20] <momal> Anyone have an recommendations for good video editors under linux. Advanced ones with lots of features?
[03:20] <conic> i reinstalled ubuntu 6.10 now amule, xmule wont connect to any server also frostwire wont connect...all other internet stuff works fine
[03:21] <bruenig> !info avidemux
[03:21] <conic> i click on server and it says "connection lost" straight away
[03:21] <ubotu> avidemux: a small editing software for avi (especially DivX). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1:2.1.2-0.0ubuntu3 (edgy), package size 2738 kB, installed size 6956 kB
[03:21] <xabbott> momal: video editing is pretty weak for linux rightnow
[03:21] <agent> momal: cinderella is more advanced that you can dream of... hollywood uses cinderella - shrek, for example, was created using it!!
[03:22] <Jordan_U> agent: On par with Final Cut?
[03:22] <momal> cinderella... that sounds fimilar. I'll go have a look at it thanks :)... avidemux I use for encoding its not much of a video editor :p
[03:23] <agent> Jordan_U: final cut is not for pro studios but for power users, right? i mean, do the big hollywood studios use final cut? (i have no idea)
[03:23] <[Ithaycu] > Is it possible to remove updates without using synaptic or from the command-line
[03:23] <agent> Jordan_U: but i bet its more powerful otherwise the big studios would not use it
[03:23] <MasterLexx> cinderella is the wrong one
[03:23] <bruenig> [Ithaycu] , what do you mean remove updates? Remove the update process or remove a particular update that you don't want to enact
[03:24] <[Ithaycu] > I ran synaptic yesterday and installed the updates
[03:24] <bruenig> by update process I mean updating in general
[03:24] <[Ithaycu] > and now I cannot get x to run
[03:24] <momal> MasterLexx: what do you mean ?
[03:24] <MasterLexx> cinderella is not for video editing it seems
[03:24] <Jordan_U> agent: Final Cut Pro was used in LOTR and many other movies, I had actually heard that cinnerela was pretty bad
[03:25] <bruenig> [Ithaycu] , the new kernel messes with some nvidia stuff
[03:25] <Pervo_Roffe> let play jeopardy :D    name a program that shows all the wireless networks available?
[03:25] <MasterLexx> but avidemux looks quite promising
[03:25] <[Ithaycu] > the xserver dumps with no error code
[03:25] <Jordan_U> MasterLexx: No "d" cinnerella
[03:25] <[Ithaycu] > I didn't update the kernel
[03:25] <MasterLexx> argh, see, in windows all programs have ultra long ames...
[03:25] <[Ithaycu] > But I did notice an Xorg update
[03:25] <MasterLexx> *names
[03:25] <Jordan_U> Pervo_Roffe: Terminal or GUI?
[03:25] <jrib> Pervo_Roffe: in jeopardy, you give the answer and we ask the question :)
[03:26] <Pervo_Roffe> GUI :)
[03:26] <Lam_> when i run $sudo shutdown -P now   on my server, i can hear it shutdown the hard drive and everything, but the computer stays on and the fans are still running. how do i completely shut down and power off the system using the terminal?
[03:26] <agent> momal: what MasterLexx is probably trying to say is that cinderella is probably way overkill for normal video editing... i suggested it because you wanted something "powerful"
[03:26] <Pervo_Roffe> reversed jeopardy, sorry :P
[03:26] <Toma-> Lam_: 'poweroff' works nice
[03:27] <lordbelial> hi.... anybody can help me?
[03:27] <momal> well... I want something that I can put clips together put sound over text/special effects etc
[03:27] <cyber_brain_mfkg> i think i found problem just don't know how to solve it! something is wrong with my window menager!!!
[03:27] <Jordan_U> Pervo_Roffe: Network-manager-gnome is good, so is wifi-radar
[03:27] <Pervo_Roffe> Jordan_U: GUI pls
[03:27] <cyber_brain_mfkg> workspaces problem! someone to help?
[03:27] <Pervo_Roffe> Jordan_U: Thanks a bunch
[03:27] <Lam_> Toma-: if i don't use --force for poweroff, it works the same as if i did $ shutdown
[03:27] <agent> momal: then cinderella is way overkill for you :) thats not motion picture editing that you need there ;)
[03:27] <MasterLexx> cinderella is something different
[03:27] <Jordan_U> !anybody | lordbelial
[03:27] <ubotu> lordbelial: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:28] <MasterLexx> is there any website with screenshots of cinnerella?
[03:28] <lordbelial> Ok sorry
[03:28] <momal> Then any idea what i need ?
[03:28] <Toma-> MasterLexx: the cinelerra website maybe?
[03:28] <nofeardjb> !ask
[03:28] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:28] <[Ithaycu] > I've tried the following drivers 'nv' 'nvidia' 'fbdev' and all three dump the X server
[03:28] <MasterLexx> can't find it
[03:28] <Toma-> MasterLexx: http://heroinewarrior.com/cinelerra.php3
[03:28] <lordbelial> I want to know: how can I configure a draw tablet?
[03:28] <[Ithaycu] > I also updated the nvidia driver to the latest release version
[03:28] <Defend> whats it say in the log?
[03:29] <agent> momal: try kino if you are editing dv files or try lives for other files
[03:29] <drkm> since i've installed ubuntu my eyes have felt like they are under a lot of strain and I've been getting headaches.. I've installed the correct driver, using the same resolution and refresh rate I had on windows... is there anything I've missed?
[03:30] <ADD> Hey, thank you very much Gigaamd.  That worked.
[03:30] <agent> MasterLexx: its a video editor, screenshots wont show you anything except the "eye candy" of the program that no one cares about (except maybe mac users)
[03:30] <lambo4jos> hey everybody
[03:30] <xabbott> refresh rate is the only thing I know that affects that
[03:30] <MasterLexx> not really
[03:30] <lordbelial> Jordan?
[03:30] <drkm> xabbott: that to me?
[03:30] <MasterLexx> you can see the tools and the workspace
[03:30] <MasterLexx> command line video editing won't do it for me
[03:30] <xabbott> drkm: yes, sorry
[03:31] <drkm> xabbott: ah ok thanks
[03:31] <xabbott> drkm: maybe it is the ui change?
[03:31] <drkm> xabbott: nah, it's definately a configuration change I need to make somewhere
[03:31] <agent> MasterLexx: but 1) screenshots may not be complete and 2) that every "tool" is in a toolbox or workspace somewhere
[03:31] <ShakaGoldSaint> hi, i'm having problems trying to install edgy, X fails to start, i've already tried safe video mode just like i did with dapper, that time it did the trick, i have a radeon x800 gto, any suggestions?, how can i make a text-mode install?
[03:32] <agent> MasterLexx: but yea, im sure it gives you some clues as to its capabilities ;)
[03:32] <lambo4jos> has anyone had problems with the binary installation package of the mysql-query-browser on ubuntu dapper.  It installs fine, but I think the binary is broken cause it shuts down when I try to edit tables.  anyone know how to fix this?
[03:32] <[Ithaycu] > Defend: the last thing in the Xorg log is FreeFontPath: FPE "/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc/" refcounf is 2, should be 1; fixing.
[03:32] <xabbott> ShakaGoldSaint: you need the alternate cd
[03:32] <Defend> hmm
[03:32] <Defend> try reinstalling x maybe
[03:33] <[Ithaycu] > Defend: my problem with Xorg is related to perms

[03:33] <[Ithaycu] > Defend: I just started X successfully as root
