[06:19] <vikku> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop didnt help installing the desktop ....says no such package
[06:19] <bastidraZor> ethan, once installed that should be the fix
[06:19] <st1ckly78> i am looking for some help acessing my second hard drive it is mounted and shows up on my desktop but i can not create a new folder in it or save anything to it
[06:19] <ethan> bastidraZor: I'll try restarting now
[06:19] <cozby> hey, what happend to the wmaker package?
[06:19] <xoRock> need help, i accidenly change root desktop resolution into unsupported resolution so the screen is blank, is there anyway to edit the setting manually?
[06:19] <cozby> no longer exists?
[06:19] <cozby> ppl don't like WindowMaker
[06:19] <slytherin> g0dd3ss: I mean do you have your own wireless router to which your PC connects or is it connection provided by your ISP?
[06:19] <vikku> how do i install the desktop in ubuntu server ed ?
[06:19] <cozby> thats insane?
[06:19] <JasonWoof> why do my firefox windows sometimes show up in the background? (I'm executing "firefox" from a terminal emulator)
[06:19] <st1ckly78> i am looking for some help acessing my second hard drive it is mounted and shows up on my desktop but i can not create a new folder in it or save anything to it
[06:19] <bastidraZor> Frawgie, i don't think i have that installed.. let me loook
[06:19] <Dangerous> xoRock /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:19] <bastidraZor>  -0
[06:19] <ethan> Frawgie: I'm going to try nvidia-glx-new brb.
[06:20] <slytherin> cozby: I am sure it is still there. Many use it. May be the package name changed.
[06:20] <abernanit> Do the nVidia glx drivers work with acpi=off?
[06:20] <Frawgie> ethan, that nvidia-glx-new driver didnt work for me, told me same thing about not being able to load t he kernel module.
[06:20] <vikku>  how do i install the desktop in ubuntu server ed ?
[06:20] <g0dd3ss> slytherin oh i have a wireless ap connected to a windows box which i use as an internet gateway.  the same setup is working fine when i boot that same computer into windows.
[06:20] <xoRock> Dangerous, which part should i look into?
[06:20] <cozby> slytherin: any idea how to 'search' for it?
[06:20] <cozby> slytherin: or list w* packages?
[06:20] <xoRock> Dangerous, i mean inside xorg.conf
[06:20] <Dangerous> its pretty difficult to miss the part focused on screen resolutions
[06:20] <astro76> cozby, apt-cache search windowmaker
[06:20] <cozby> astro76: nadda
[06:20] <Dangerous> anything looking like 1024x800 etc
[06:20] <Mercury> Frawgie: Add nvidia_legacy to /etc/defaults/linux-*, down at the bottom in the disabled modules variable.
[06:21] <cozby> astro76: i need to list'em
[06:21] <bastidraZor> vikku sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[06:21] <slytherin> cozby: apt-cache search packagename
[06:21] <cozby> because no package name is found by that
[06:21] <st1ckly78> i am looking for some help acessing my second hard drive it is mounted and shows up on my desktop but i can not create a new folder in it or save anything to it
[06:21] <astro76> cozby, I list a ton here, including wmaker (feisty)
[06:21] <cozby> no, you need an exact package name to get that
[06:21] <Mercury> Frawgie: That will fix the problem after a reboot, in the meantime, rmmod nvidia, modprobe nvidia.
[06:21] <cozby> really?
[06:21] <cozby> what the...
[06:21] <slytherin> g0dd3ss: Why does your interfaces list show eth1 as well as wlan0?
[06:21] <vikku>  bastidraZor: i did try but it says no such package
[06:21] <Khrajin> slytherin: Probably cause its a laptop
[06:21] <g0dd3ss> slytherin i dont know i am a noob. i use eth1 for my connection
[06:21] <Frawgie> Mercury, I'll give anything a whirl :) brb
[06:21] <astro76> !info wmaker
[06:21] <ubotu> wmaker: NeXTSTEP-like window manager for X. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.92.0-6.1 (feisty), package size 2355 kB, installed size 6280 kB
[06:22] <cozby> strange
[06:22] <bastidraZor> vikku you probably need to enable all your respositories
[06:22] <slytherin> g0dd3ss: Any chance you have 2 wireless cards?
[06:22] <g0dd3ss> slytherin nope
[06:22] <vikku> how ?
[06:22] <st1ckly78> i am looking for some help acessing my second hard drive it is mounted and shows up on my desktop but i can not create a new folder in it or save anything to it
[06:22] <doms> when is the release of the CNR in ubuntu
[06:22] <vikku>  bastidraZor: how ?
[06:22] <Malachi> Does anyone have a plain vanilla Ubuntu installation?
[06:22] <Malachi> I need a .tar.gz of the .icons folder
[06:22] <cozby> nothing is displayed when i do it
[06:22] <slytherin> g0dd3ss: Then try to copy Whatever is under eth1 also for wlan0. I mean try to make them same.
[06:22] <abernanit> stlckly78, is your second hard drive partitioned under Windows ntfs?
[06:22] <st1ckly78> no ext3
[06:22] <Mercury> Malachi: Why? (It matters.)
[06:23] <Photocopy> k slytherin
[06:23] <Malachi> I just did a backup, and overwrote my icons, but the backup seems to be corrupted =\
[06:23] <xoRock> Dangerous, u mean Section "Screen"?
[06:23] <Photocopy> i read thos wiki pages
[06:23] <Malachi> Mercury: That's why.
[06:23] <vikku> bastidraZor: how do i enable repositories ?
[06:23] <Photocopy> and i still dont understand
[06:23] <Photocopy> would you be kind enough to really explain what I need to do?
[06:23] <g0dd3ss> slytherin ok thanks i will try that, weird tho because i havent (knowinly) changed any settigns it just stop working :-\
[06:23] <JasonWoof> Malachi: like from the liveCD?
[06:23] <slytherin> Photocopy: Please tell us what you don't understand.
[06:23] <Photocopy> Well
[06:23] <Frawgie> Mercury, the only thing in that directory of a linux-* nature is linux-restricted-modules-common
[06:23] <Malachi> JasonWoof: Yeah. If you could tell me where they're located on the Live CD that'd be great, too.
[06:23] <Mercury> Frawgie: Correct, that's the one.
[06:23] <Eleaf> Frawgie, (ethan), I got it
[06:23] <Malachi> Otherwise, I just need a copy of the default icons.
[06:23] <Frawgie> k, one sec
[06:23] <Photocopy> the page linked to another talking about a multiverse repository but there wasnt really anything about one
[06:23] <Photocopy> in the page
[06:24] <Mercury> Frawgie: Not having a feisty system right infront of me, I couldn't remember the full name. :)
[06:24] <st1ckly78> abernanit, it is ext3
[06:24] <Photocopy> just how they work
[06:24] <slytherin> g0dd3ss: Looks like the card name has changed from eth1 to wlan0 and wlan0 is not configured.
[06:24] <Dangerous> xoRock there's only one section that deals with screen resolutions
[06:24] <bastidraZor> vikku, one sec..
[06:24] <Eleaf> Frawgie, I installed nvidia-glx-new, and X works.
[06:24] <Dangerous> unless you have more than one monitor
[06:24] <cozby> shit i think i installed an old version
[06:24] <cozby> fuck
[06:24] <vikku> bastidraZor: ok
[06:24] <Photocopy> and i still dont understand where I find it...
[06:24] <Mercury> Malachi: Wait, .icons, not one elsewhere in the system?
[06:24] <slytherin> Photocopy: Do you know how to install packages uing synaptic or apt-get?
[06:24] <Mercury> Malachi: As in ~/.icons?
[06:24] <Eleaf> bastidraZor, you reccomended that right?
[06:24] <JasonWoof> Malachi: where's it on your system? I have a ~/.icons, but it's empty
[06:24] <cozby> Linux version 2.6.15-26-386 (buildd@terranova) (gcc version 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5)) #1 PREEMPT
[06:24] <Photocopy> slytherin: im a total newbie
[06:24] <Mercury> Malachi: rm -rf ~/.icons, it should hopefully get regenerated if you need it.
[06:24] <Malachi> Mercury: Yes. Oh! You're right.
[06:24] <Eleaf> Frawgie, have you tried that
[06:24] <cozby> old
[06:24] <Dangerous> xoRock just change all the resolutions you see to one that your monitor supports and restart X window
[06:25] <JasonWoof> why do my firefox windows sometimes show up in the background? (I'm executing "firefox" from a terminal emulator)
[06:25] <slytherin> Photocopy: Then read that page completely. It also links to pages about installing software.
[06:25] <Photocopy> right........
[06:25] <st1ckly78> i am looking for some help acessing my second hard drive it is mounted and shows up on my desktop but i can not create a new folder in it or save anything to it
[06:25] <abernanit> stlckly78: I'm not sure why it wouldn't write, considering it is using the ext3 format
[06:25] <Malachi> Mercury: There some in /usr/share/icons or somewhere, but I'm assuming deleting this .icon directory should fix the problem.
[06:25] <Malachi> Let me try.
[06:25] <Photocopy> i dont know where synaptic or apt-get ARE on my aplications thingy
[06:25] <bastidraZor> vikku, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories?action=show&redirect=AddingRepositoriesHowto
[06:25] <st1ckly78> i think it has something to do with permissions but i am not sure
[06:25] <thepumpkin> how can I see the error of a program that was not launched from terminal?
[06:25] <Mercury> Malachi: Right, if the stuff in /usr/share/icons is corrupted, that's fixable too with aptitude. (Probably synaptic too, maybe even apt-get.)
[06:25] <bastidraZor> vikku, that page has all the info and a link that will help you add/enable in the GUI or CLI
[06:26] <JasonWoof> st1ckly78: is it mounted read/write?
[06:26] <Malachi> Thanks Mercury and JasonWoof. Deleting it fixed it.
[06:26] <st1ckly78> all i know is it is mounted
[06:26] <JasonWoof> st1ckly78: and have you checked the file owners?
[06:26] <DigitalNinja_> dd
[06:26] <slytherin> Photocopy: Have you gone through all the menus? Synaptic is right there.
[06:26] <brando> trying to set up a belkin wireless g f5d7000 pci device.  can anyone help with ndiskwrapper
[06:27] <thepumpkin> i mean, the application crashes only when I run it from a Launcher and not by Terminal
[06:27] <abernanit> Does anyone know how I can run the updated nvidia glx drivers with acpi=off without causing an X error?
[06:27] <st1ckly78> it says root
[06:27] <Photocopy> slytherin: didnt see it! XD
[06:27] <Malachi> Bye, guys.
[06:27] <Eleaf> thank you bastidraZor for suggesting nvidia-glx-new, why is this not automatically installed if it creates a fatal X situation?
[06:27] <bastidraZor> Frawgie, pray to the Xorg gods for help ;)
[06:27] <slytherin> Photocopy: How about System->Administration->Synaptic Package Manager?
[06:27] <Frawgie> Eleaf yah I did, got the error that says it has the wrong kernel version with that one, tried the legacy (til i read the notes), took that one back out, tried the *-9631 drivers, no go, tried the 100.14.* drivers, no go, tried the entire nvidia-glx-* set as well
[06:27] <cozby> wait i got 6.06LTS
[06:27] <Eleaf> X works now, although compiz just froze on me
[06:27] <cozby> thats not that old?
[06:27] <ColdFlo> why is 7.04 amd54 not install?
[06:27] <Mercury> bastidraZor: It's not an Xorg problem, it's an issue with the Ubuntu handling of the 3 different flavors of nvidia modules.
[06:27] <Eleaf> man Frawgie
[06:28] <slytherin> brando: I haven't used ndis but there is ndis-gtk which might help configuring from GUI
[06:28] <Mercury> bastidraZor: 4 different flavors now, but.
[06:28] <cozby> err apt sucks
[06:28] <Eleaf> bastidraZor, sounds pretty horrible by the ubuntu packaging team.
[06:28] <vikk1>  bastidraZor: do u know where the debian pkgs are generally stored in Ubuntu servr ed 7.04 ?
[06:28] <brando> ok thx how to install
[06:28] <cozby> it doen't even give me a no results msg
[06:28] <Frawgie> Eleaf lol yah i know, if there is something impossible, I'll bang my head til it works anyways :D
[06:28] <bullgard4> ping <IP_ADDRESS> responds: "19 packets transmitted, 0 received, +12 errors, 100% packet loss, time 18000ms, pipe 3." What does 'pipe 3' mean?
[06:28] <martman> i added a new solution to my X config, but i dont see it listed under screen resolutuon prefs
[06:28] <ColdFlo> i heard ubuntu was easiest to install on earth then denies me
[06:28] <martman> why?
[06:28] <slytherin> ColdFlo: What do you mean?
[06:28] <Eleaf> bastidraZor, does this mess everybody up?  Why not make the package required if it doesn't allow X to start, that's pretty important.
[06:28] <Mercury> vikk1: You mean after downloading?
[06:28] <brando> sudo apt-get install ndis-gdk?
[06:28] <Mercury> vikk1: /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:28] <ColdFlo> i go to intall i get i/o error
[06:28] <Photocopy> slytherin
[06:28] <slytherin> brando: ndis-gtk
[06:28] <brando> thx
[06:29] <Frawgie> ok, did all that Mercury, now without rebooting, is there is way I can tell if its working?
[06:29] <bastidraZor> vikk1, goto the link about managing via CLI.. that has the info you need
[06:29] <vikk1> Mercury:  bastidraZor: yes aftr downloading and i believe there cud be inbuilt pkgs with cd installation too !! ??
[06:29] <sinthetek> not sure why exactly but my swap quit starting at boot
[06:29] <sinthetek> err
[06:29] <slytherin> brando: Sorry, it is ndisgtk (without '-')
[06:29] <Mercury> Frawgie: Oh, without rebooting?  Different fix.  'rmmod nvidia' 'modprobe nvidia', restart gdm/kdm.
[06:29] <JasonWoof> is there some way to get all the development packages installed for the libraries I have installed?
[06:29] <ColdFlo> all i do is put disc in then use menus right?
[06:29] <sinthetek> quit being activated at boot*
[06:29] <Photocopy> slytherin i have opened synaptic, but the titles of packages are too confusing and the descriptions are too technical? Why dont they jsut make it Java runtime environment? Ugh! =P
[06:29] <brando> kk thx sly
[06:29] <FusE> ColdFlo, are you using Madwifi
[06:29] <JasonWoof> all of them I mean
[06:29] <Mercury> vikk1: The directory I just gave you is where it downloads the .debs to.
[06:29] <Frawgie> Mercury ok, brb
[06:29] <ColdFlo> no i dont like wifi
[06:29] <Typwn> I'm trying to setup my wireless internet. I have a WMP54g v4 and it sees my access point, just shows 0%
[06:29] <FusE> >.<
[06:29] <Typwn> Anything?
[06:30] <sinthetek> and with this new uuid thing, i don't know how to fix it. i've been just using mkswap/swapon manually for a while now, but i would like to figure out how to get it working properly
[06:30] <sinthetek> s/working/activating
[06:30] <slytherin> Photocopy: Install sun-java5-jre package
[06:30] <Photocopy> k...
[06:30] <xoRock> Dangerous, there is no xorg.conf, login screen is blank, root desktop si blank, my user desktop is okay
[06:30] <JasonWoof> Photocopy: click Applications (top left) then on Add/Remove...
[06:30] <Photocopy> what category is it in?
[06:30] <ColdFlo> excuse me installing ubuntu =s put in dvd then follow menus yes?
[06:30] <JasonWoof> Photocopy: that's a much simpler way to install things
[06:30] <Photocopy> jasonwoof
[06:30] <Cubey> hello
[06:30] <bastidraZor> Mercury, i prayed to Lord Xorg and he magically fixed my nVidia issues.. i also had to sacrifice a small lamb
[06:31] <Mercury> bastidraZor: Oh.
[06:31] <JasonWoof> Photocopy: it doesn't have everything though, so maybe that doesn't work for your needs
[06:31] <unagi> anyone know how to convert .flv to .mov on ubuntu?
[06:31] <ColdFlo> i dled the dvd off ubuntu site shet didnt work i wanna do aigxl +beryl
[06:31] <slytherin> sinthetek: You can find UUID of a partition. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingUUID
[06:31] <Mercury> bastidraZor: Damn, I'm just a Debian devel and Xorg developer, not one of those lords. :)
[06:31] <JasonWoof> unagi: ffmpeg can handle some .flv files
[06:31] <unagi> i haven't figured out ffmpeg
[06:31] <Cubey> Funny how life repeats itself. i'm having a problem I did the last time I did an ubuntu installation and I don't remember how I corrected it. or maybe I never did, I'm needing the VP61 codec to work
[06:32] <ColdFlo> what am i to do if install dvd didnt work?
[06:32] <Photocopy> its not on that list though i checked, jasonwoof
[06:32] <JasonWoof> unagi: ffmpeg infile outfile
[06:32] <Photocopy> thanks anyway
[06:32] <Photocopy> slytherin i think i got it
[06:32] <slytherin> sinthetek: Or also, ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid
[06:32] <Frawgie> Mercury! I LOVE YOU! IT WORKS!
[06:32] <Typwn> Can anyone help? I'm trying to setup my wireless internet. I have a WMP54g v4 and it sees my access point, just shows 0%. I've WEP, no WEP, static IP, DHCP, disabling roaming, wtc.
[06:32] <ColdFlo> hello?
[06:32] <bastidraZor> Mercury, do you accept small children as payment for services rendered.. i could father a few if so
[06:32] <bastidraZor> Frawgie, awesome
[06:32] <Frawgie> lol
[06:32] <Mercury> bastidraZor: I prefer cash or hardware. :)
[06:32] <sinthetek> slytherin: i believe it's mentioned here in fstab, but it doesn't seem to work with the mount command and isn't being recognized/activated at boot
[06:32] <Cubey> VLC is supposed to support VP61 however it's output message states it can't decode it
[06:32] <ColdFlo> hey im talking to you shets
[06:32] <slytherin> Cubey: Is VP61 implemented by anyone? I mean by ffmpeg or mplayer project?
[06:33] <cozby> how do you get a list of installed packages?
[06:33] <sinthetek> slytherin: whatever update switched it to using uuids edited fstab improperly maybe?
[06:33] <bastidraZor> Mercury, with children you could turn them to slave labor .. which in the long run would be a steady paycheck
[06:33] <unagi> [video4linux2 @ 0xb7f2c2d0] Missing/Wrong parameters
[06:33] <unagi> Could not find video grab device
[06:33] <Mercury> bastidraZor: Checks work, but not paypal or credit at this time. :)
[06:33] <slytherin> ColdFlo: File a bug
[06:33] <bastidraZor> heh
[06:33] <Cubey> slytherin, VLC unless I'm mistaken..
[06:33] <martman> i added a new solution to my X config, but i dont see it listed under screen resolutuon prefs. how can i fix this
[06:33] <ColdFlo> pssssht
[06:33] <Eleaf> Mercury, do you know why nvidia-glx-new isn't installed by default (what is it?)
[06:33] <slytherin> ColdFlo: Before that check that DVD is not corrupted
[06:33] <Mercury> bastidraZor: Nah, I can't be bothered to deal with it.
[06:33] <ColdFlo> it wasnt im getting another copy
[06:33] <bastidraZor> Mercury, yeah.. to much clean up
[06:33] <ColdFlo> i think its incompatibility
[06:33] <slytherin> sinthetek: It is possible. UUIDs were introduced in feisty
[06:34] <sinthetek> slytherin: i don't see the uuid that is in fstab
[06:34] <Typwn> Can anyone help? I'm trying to setup my wireless internet. I have a WMP54g v4 and it sees my access point, just shows 0%. I've WEP, no WEP, static IP, DHCP, disabling roaming, etc. Can anyone help? I've looked on the forums and nothing was really fixing my question.
[06:34] <Mercury> Eleaf: To be honest, I figured out the workaround I told Frawgie and stopped looking for why nvidia_legacy was getting loaded.
[06:34] <sn4cks> is there an apt-get for the java run-time environment plug-in for firefox?
[06:34] <lkthomas> hey guys
[06:34] <sinthetek> hrm...
[06:34] <lkthomas> any of you use vserver on feisty ?
[06:34] <Eleaf> Mercury, well what is nvidia-glx-new
[06:34] <Mercury> Eleaf: Since it wasn't my box, and that solution worked, I wasn't in a position to bother to try and fix it.
[06:34] <slytherin> !java > sn4cks
[06:34] <ColdFlo> anyone here running beryl?
[06:34] <Mercury> Eleaf: Obsolete already. :)
[06:34] <Eleaf> Mercury, ??
[06:34] <bastidraZor> already?
[06:34] <sinthetek> weird, this problem has existed on my system for a while but i only recently upgraded to feisty (ie yesterday and rebooted this morning)
[06:34] <bastidraZor> nice
[06:34] <TheCreationist> Is there a way to force the generation of thumbnails for videos/pictures in Nautilus?
[06:35] <Mercury> Eleaf: Alright, my memory is rusty so give me a minute to dig up the version numbers?
[06:35] <sinthetek> i've had uuids in there since and no swap since before then
[06:35] <sn4cks> slytherin: thanks a bunch!
[06:35] <Frawgie> Eleaf, im using the driver from nvidia's website, the 100.14.* one
[06:35] <slytherin> Cubey: Have you tried installing all gstreamer plugins and using totem?
[06:35] <Eleaf> Frawgie, noice!
[06:35] <MTecknology> how can I remap input events? like remapping 121 to 1 and unknown as of now to 3
[06:35] <brando> slytherin: im getting an error which doesnt allow ndisgtk to run ill copy the terminal
[06:35] <Frawgie> Eleaf, it should support your 6200 also

[06:35] <brando> ndis-gtk
[06:35] <Eleaf> Frawgie, I am using nvidia-glx-new

[06:35] <slytherin> brando: What error?

[06:36] <Mercury> Eleaf: In the beginning nVidia had a unified driver system, one driver package that worked for all their cards from the beginning of time to the present, and it was Good.
[06:36] <avis> SwordManX, hellanzb works wonderful
[06:36] <sinthetek> oh well, thanks a lot. i should be able to figure it out from here
[06:36] <martman> i added a new solution to my X config, but i dont see it listed under screen resolutuon prefs. how can i fix this

[06:36] <ColdFlo> irc warps the atmosphere
[06:36] <avis> ColdFlo, i certainly wasn't rude
[06:36] <Cubey> slytherin, thanks, i bet that's the problem. installing gstreamer plugins and such now.
[06:36] <Eleaf> Mercury, ye
[06:36] <ColdFlo> all the sudden everyone was on a power trip
[06:36] <Mercury> Eleaf: And then around the time of the 71xx drivers it got to be too bloody much of a pain to support the latest and greatest cards in the same driver as something that can barely do OpenGL.
[06:36] <Photocopy> it appeares to have worked slytherin
[06:37] <xubuntu> how can i get sound whilst watching video? thanx
[06:37] <slytherin> Photocopy: Good. :-)
[06:37] <ColdFlo> jordan can you do any cool desktop manipulation with that?
[06:37] <slytherin> xubuntu: Which video?
[06:37] <Photocopy> slytherin
[06:37] <Photocopy> after this ill need morehelp...
[06:37] <Jordan_U> ColdFlo, If you have an nvidia card it is required for Compiz / Beryl
[06:37] <Mercury> Eleaf: And there was a great cry and gnashing of teeth as there was the Split, where one version of the driver was needed for older cards, and another for newer cards.  But all was well, as it could be labeled old, and all was good.
[06:37] <bastidraZor> speaking of children.. i am needed
[06:37] <Photocopy> =D cause i have another seperate problem
[06:37] <Frawgie> Eleaf, what was that you had installed, the Com* something?  Isnt it for desktop manipulation or something?
[06:38] <ColdFlo> oh i see cool i thought that sounded related good deal
[06:38] <slytherin> Photocopy: If I am here then sure. I may go to meeting after sometime.
[06:38] <ColdFlo> im an nvidia whore
[06:38] <bastidraZor> nVidia 5200 == older card

[06:38] <ColdFlo> i have every new card
[06:38] <ColdFlo> i have 79 series
[06:38] <MTecknology> how can I remap input events? like remapping 121 to 1 and unknown as of now to 3 - these are button click events
[06:38] <Eleaf> Frawgie, compiz, it's a 3d window manager; pretty popular
[06:38] <ColdFlo> 68series
[06:38] <Frawgie> thats the one, thanks :)
[06:38] <Mercury> Eleaf: But behold, there was still pain in the land of nVidia driver maintainers, and so there was another split in the time of 96xx, once more dropping support for older cards (but not as old as the 71xx drivers handle) in favor of newer cards.
[06:38] <Photocopy> slytherin
[06:38] <Eleaf> Frawgie, compiz/beryl
[06:38] <martman> unagi i think it can convert to pretty much anything
[06:38] <Typwn> Can anyone help? I'm trying to setup my wireless internet. I have a WMP54g v4 and it sees my access point, just shows 0%. I've WEP, no WEP, static IP, DHCP, disabling roaming, etc. Can anyone help? I've looked on the forums and nothing was really fixing my question.
[06:38] <unagi> i just dont understand how to make it do that
[06:38] <Photocopy> slytherin, it did not work.
[06:39] <Cubey> hm, something else. maybe this is something simple but I can't figure out how to change the clock in KDE from 24hour format to AM/PM
[06:39] <Photocopy> Firefox still says missing plugins...
[06:39] <Eleaf> Mercury, wow
[06:39] <ColdFlo> i think coders are just lazy
[06:39] <slytherin> Photocopy: What did not work?
[06:39] <ColdFlo> a port they have done a million times before
[06:39] <Mercury> Eleaf: And there was _great_ crying and ganshing of teeth among the distributions, for behold they now had to choose between _three_ different driver versions, and this caused much trouble for those that had called the 71xx driver old, for now there was another not quite as old.
[06:39] <ColdFlo> shouldnt take much time
[06:39] <ColdFlo> but it does
[06:39] <ColdFlo> nvidia also doesnt get all their stuff signed
[06:39] <Photocopy> slytherin; my installation of the package apparently
[06:39] <Frawgie> Ok, here's another one for ya now.  I try to use apt-get install <package> and it keeps telling it cant find one as if its not even trying to go out and find it.
[06:39] <Mercury> Eleaf: And behold, there were support issues, and holes made in walls by the heads of distribution packagers.
[06:39] <ColdFlo> but with ms charging them up the wazoo i dont blame them
[06:39] <slytherin> Photocopy: What is error?
[06:39] <Photocopy> slytherin it said success in synaptic, but it doesnt give an error
[06:40] <lkthomas> does ubuntu support jail ?
[06:40] <Eleaf> Mercury, haha, I see.
[06:40] <Photocopy> just appears exactly like how running an applet without java normally looks in firefox
[06:40] <Photocopy> its a white square with a green puzzle piece saying missing plugin
[06:40] <Mercury> Eleaf: And then there was the great renumbering, and drivers have become 100.14.n, and the potential for yet another Split.
[06:40] <Eleaf> Mercury, there should be a messaging system that says if you have this card and up, upgrade to nvidia-glx-new.
[06:40] <Cubey> nsv warning: unknown codec VP61
[06:40] <Jordan_U> Frawgie, It doesn't need to connect to the internet to check the list of available applications
[06:40] <slytherin> Photocopy: Did you restart Firefox?
[06:40] <Photocopy> yup
[06:40] <TheCreationist> Is there a way to force the generation of thumbnails for videos/pictures in Nautilus?
[06:40] <Mercury> Eleaf: And the distribution packagers started screaming and yelling and throwing things.

[06:41] <slytherin> Photocopy: Try this command, sudo update-alternatives --config java , and then restart firefox.
[06:41] <Frawgie> Jordan_U it did all day yesterday though, it would go out and download the ones i needed and install them.  now its not even trying :(
[06:41] <Mercury> Eleaf: IMHO, Ubuntu should adopt the same scheme that Debian nvidia package owner has done, calling them nvidia-legacy-71xx, nvidia-legacy-96xx, etc.
[06:41] <Photocopy> slytherin
[06:41] <slytherin> dissection: It should work
[06:41] <Mercury> Eleaf: No more of this old, current, new stuff.
[06:41] <ColdFlo> dissection thats a little too specific
[06:42] <ColdFlo> thats something you just have to fiind out
[06:42] <Photocopy> i just want you to know i use xubuntu, if it makes any difference
[06:42] <Photocopy> ill try that command
[06:42] <Mercury> Eleaf: Anyhow, that is the tale of why we have nvidia-glx-new.
[06:42] <gravemind> I need help with Chrono Trigger
[06:42] <slytherin> Photocopy: No it doesn't make a difference
[06:42] <martman> i added a new solution to my X config, but i dont see it listed under screen resolutuon prefs. how can i fix this
[06:42] <dissection> ColdFlo, so its safe to install? I don't know how to uninstall it if it doesn't work.
[06:42] <Eleaf> I see Mercury
[06:42] <Mercury> Eleaf: And why the people maintaining those packages don't want to answer email asking why right now. :)
[06:42] <ColdFlo> well you better learn

[06:42] <astro76> !rpm | dissection
[06:42] <ubotu> dissection: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[06:43] <dissection> yikes
[06:43] <Jordan_U> Frawgie, What are you trying to install?
[06:43] <ColdFlo> data is unforgiving
[06:43] <dissection> astro76, rpm as in the files will be with .rpm extension?
[06:43] <ColdFlo> you are messing with large amounts you have to be able to have it conffigured properly

[06:55] <kapace> soz, i was enjoying ubuntu and seeing how its soo similar to macOS, then i realized, ubuntu isn't based on mac, macos is an expensive version of ubuntu, am i right?
[06:55] <Jordan_U> dissection, sh is like a rectangle, bash is like a square, on most machines sh is linked to bash so they are the same thing, but people shouldn't depend on it and so it's like asking for a rectangle when you really need a square just because people usually give you a square when you ask for a rectangle
[06:56] <iratik> alright ... here goes my question : http://img366.imageshack.us/my.php?image=devvideo0rf2.png    , as you can see from dmesg... when i plug in the usb webcam -- it shows up and is identified properly ... i show that /dev/video0 is available..

[06:58] <iakona724> i keep getting that when i try to install ubuntu 7.04
[06:58] <slytherin> kapace: Wrond. mac OS is based on BSD which is one of the original favours of Unix. Ubuntu is based on GNU tools and Linux (which is Free implementation similar to Unix)
[06:59] <FusE> Is there a way to copy all the old network information to a newer kernel from a old one
[06:59] <iakona724> Can someone help me out with installing Ubuntu 7.04 and just trouble shoot me?
[06:59] <snake_> i get an api mismatch error. nvidia kernel module is not the same with the x server module. what can i do to resolve this please
[06:59] <slytherin> kapace: Apart form that Most of the tools in Mac OS are closed/proprietary. Ubuntu is mostly Free (as in freedom to modify)
[06:59] <astro76> FusE, the kernel doesn't store any information... what are you trying to do?
[06:59] <Cubey> humm
[06:59] <kapace> ya
[07:00] <FusE> astro76, ive had network problems for three days, my network works on a old kernel version (dapper/breezy) but hasn't worked since I ugpraded dapper to edgy
[07:00] <kapace> but it has like the same screensavers :D
[07:00] <FusE> ON edgy, I turned off security and it worked, In Feisty, it does not work at all
[07:00] <slytherin> kapace: Similar, not same. :-)
[07:00] <Frogzoo> FusE: what nic?
[07:01] <FusE> "nic"?
[07:01] <astro76> FusE, any configuration information is under /etc/, I wouldn't recommend blindly copying though
[07:01] <iratik> why must you leave slytherin
[07:01] <astro76> FusE, ethernet card
[07:01] <iratik> you were the only one helping me
[07:01] <FusE> sec I should have a log
[07:01] <FusE> http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/30178/ is a lspci output
[07:01] <iratik> FusE: try copying /etc/network/interfaces from edgy to feisty... if that doesn't work ... make sure you have the same /etc/hosts.allow, /etc/hosts.deny configuration in both
[07:02] <iratik> if that doesn't work.. you may check to make sure iptables or some other firewall software is not running on oneversus the other
[07:02] <FusE> I booted to dapper, upgraded = no network, disabled security = network, and upgraded to Feisty = no network at all
[07:02] <g0dd3ss> HI can anybody help me, I am using ubuntu fiesty and my wireless usually connects automatically when  I boot, but it's stopped doing it all of a sudden, I don't know why I havent shanged anything. does anyone know how I can fix this? or manually start my wireless?
[07:03] <FusE> g0dd3ss I fel your pain
[07:03] <g0dd3ss> fuse lol yeah dammit im gonna reformat soon, stupid to do that for a silly lil problem but idk what else to do :-\
[07:03] <astro76> g0dd3ss, what happens? why can't you connect manually?
[07:03] <Cubey> lordy. flash isn't working either. i had no problem on the other machine. ugh
[07:03] <FusE> Im getting clos etho
[07:03] <iratik> FusE: personally.. for some crazy reason --- feisty had trouble with the exact same router i was using on dapper previously .....  i ended up using open dns in prepend-name-servers on /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
[07:04] <bulmer> g0dd3ss: your ubuntu does not connect to that AP still?
[07:04] <g0dd3ss> astro76 idk how im a stupid noob it usually just connect by itself
[07:04] <FusE> iratik, so how would I go about fixing this
[07:04] <kapace> what is 6.06's name?
[07:04] <FusE> While keeping my security
[07:04] <FusE> Dapper
[07:04] <iratik> kaspace: dapper
[07:04] <g0dd3ss> bulmer it sees the ip but idk how to get it to connect
[07:04] <g0dd3ss> ap*
[07:04] <kapace> k'
[07:04] <Frogzoo> FusE: that nic will be well supported
[07:04] <FusE> "will".....
[07:04] <iratik> FusE:. you have to identify the problem... one --- (please tell me you are not trying to use wireless)
[07:04] <Frogzoo> FusE: what's 'ifconfig eth0' say
[07:04] <astro76> g0dd3ss, can you click on the network manager applet in your tray (next to the clock) and see wireless networks?
[07:05] <megatill> good monirg :) how can i find out how hot my cpu is, with a programm not in bios?
[07:05] <bulmer> g0dd3ss: when you say it sees the ip...what command you used to test that?
[07:05] <iratik> FusE: then ... what frogzoo said --- ifconfig  see what your ip and default gateway are
[07:05] <g0dd3ss> astro76 yes i see it there
[07:05] <ColdFlo> has edgy eft ever slid one to fiesty fawn?
[07:05] <FusE> Frogzoo Ill pastebin in a sec
[07:05] <asaup> i get an api mismatch error. nvidia kernel module is not the same with the x server module. what can i do to resolve this please
[07:05] <Frogzoo> FusE: pastebin /etc/network/interfaces with hit
[07:05] <g0dd3ss> bulmer the ip looks all good using ifconfig. i can see the ap with wifiradar and kismet :-\
[07:05] <iratik> FusE: make sure you can ping your default gateway
[07:06] <bulmer> g0dd3ss: now, type ip a  and see if the nic has the ip address assigned
[07:06] <pedro> buenos dias
[07:06] <FusE> Froozoo k sec
[07:06] <iratik> FusE: if you can get a response from your default gateway -- then try resolving a dns ...  ping ntp.ubuntulinux.org --- see if it can resolve that to an ip
[07:06] <iratik> FusE: if it can't.. then its your dns configuration that is faulty
[07:07] <trias> i have a reinstall problem where i tried to install the 32 bit fiesty over the 64 bit one but ended up with both
[07:07] <iratik> in feisty.... the auto networking configuration will overwrite your resolv.conf file (the file normally used to specify name servers) .. you will need to find the section  "prepend-name-servers" in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
[07:07] <bulmer> trias you have to select the same partition as the 64bit to overwrite it
[07:07] <dissection> Jordan_U: It gives me a syntax error saying unexpected ")"
[07:07] <iratik> get the addresses for the opendns servers ... and uncomment that section with those servers instead... --- then /etc/init.d/networking restart
[07:07] <FusE> sec iratik
[07:08] <iratik> alright ... here goes my question : http://img366.imageshack.us/my.php?image=devvideo0rf2.png    , as you can see from dmesg... when i plug in the usb webcam -- it shows up and is identified properly ... i show that /dev/video0 is available.. (stat @ http://pastie.caboo.se/79366) ... why isn't camorama webcam viewer able to see the webcam (error message displayed in screenshot) ???
[07:08] <Jordan_U> dissection, Ok, check the script and see if it starts with #! /bin/sh
[07:08] <Jordan_U> dissection, If it does then change the sh to bash there also
[07:08] <trias> bulmer, ok i just selkected option 1 obviously the wrong choice what should i do now?
[07:09] <FusE> iratik, Frogzoo: http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/30190/
[07:09] <Jordan_U> dissection, And if it works after that then send them a bug report
[07:09] <bulmer> trias: depends what you want done...you want to erase the 64bit since you have the 32 bit already installed?
[07:09] <iratik> FusE: did you do everything i said?
[07:09] <John`> hmm I don't know if anyone have this problem but.. I try to use xmms to listen to music and if I play mplayer or something, it doesn't have any sound
[07:09] <FusE> havent pinged yet
[07:09] <Eleaf> hi
[07:10] <iratik> oh what the heck man
[07:10] <trias> bulmer, yes the 32 bit is working fine i want to remove the 64 bit and add the space to the 32 bit
[07:10] <dissection> Jordan_U: Yes it does. So change to #! /bin/bash?
[07:10] <iratik> the first thing i told you FusE: "tell me you are not trying to connect via wireless"
[07:10] <Frogzoo> FusE: you're trying to bring up the wireless nic ?
[07:10] <Jordan_U> dissection, Yes
[07:10] <dissection> Jordan_U: Okay let me try it..
[07:10] <FusE> Im trying to connect to my network via wireless
[07:11] <SurfnKid> hi guys
[07:11] <John`> anyone have that problem?
[07:11] <bulmer> trias: you can erase that partition assigned to 64bit
[07:11] <SurfnKid> i need some help changing permissions on some files
[07:11] <FusE> iratik, I cannot be wired, its a distance issue
[07:11] <Jordan_U> FusE, What chipset?
[07:11] <SurfnKid> and it requires a skilled user
[07:11] <trias> bulmer, ok how do i do that?
[07:11] <Frogzoo> !wifi | FusE
[07:11] <ubotu> FusE: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:11] <iratik> FusE: i'm out man.... all i can tell you is that you haven't configured that right as far as i can tell
[07:11] <SurfnKid> sup Frogzoo
[07:11] <Frogzoo> SurfnKid: /wave
[07:11] <FusE> Frogzoo, Ive ben googling and wiki'ing for three days
[07:11] <John`>  I try to use xmms to listen to music and if I play mplayer or something, it doesn't have any sound
[07:11] <SurfnKid> heh
[07:11] <FusE> I tried ndiswrapper
[07:11] <Frawgie> Jordan_U i installed the fusion version, but nothing works in it, so i have to turn it on or seomting? :P
[07:11] <iratik> FusE: noone is really going to tell you what will work.... you will just get RTFM thrown in your face
[07:12] <FusE> RTFM?
[07:12] <Sensae> I wiped track 0 on one drive out of my RAID 1 set, but seatools wouldn't let me do the other. Now the drive that hasn't had track 0 wiped can't even be read to. Anyone have any suggestions?
[07:12] <SurfnKid> is there a way to do a chmod batch?
[07:12] <SurfnKid> on all files and folders?
[07:12] <bulmer> trias for one, you have to mount that 64bit partition then erase it,
[07:12] <FusE> iratik, how would I go about verifying if it is a dns issue
[07:12] <astro76> John`, it uses oss I believe, it's outdated in several ways, you should look into audacious or beep, which are new forks of xmms
[07:12] <Jordan_U> Frawgie, Compiz Fusion is still very Beta
[07:12] <bulmer> SurfnKid: write a script ?
[07:12] <iratik> FusE: well.. dude--- okay... can you get to your default gateway
[07:12] <SurfnKid> bulmer, no idea really
[07:12] <iratik> FusE: paste this
[07:12] <John`> astro76: what is audaciou and beep?
[07:12] <Frogzoo> SurfnKid: chmod -R
[07:12] <SurfnKid> bulmer,  i know nothing of python
[07:13] <FusE> I typed ping (router ip) and it just hang'ed, no reply
[07:13] <iratik> welll.. dude i see why!
[07:13] <SurfnKid> Frogzoo, ah
[07:13] <maddog39> hallo
[07:13] <FusE> ?
[07:13] <bulmer> SurfnKid: there is bash, perl and other scripting languages in linux other than python
[07:13] <iratik> you don't even have an IP address
[07:13] <trias> bulmer, ok i mounted it how do i erase it?
[07:13] <FusE> wher
[07:13] <kooz> whois
[07:13] <kooz> does that work here?
[07:13] <SurfnKid> bulmer, ok let me rephrase, i know no programming languages, im an integrator and network engineer, :(
[07:13] <maddog39> i have a question thats not really ubuntu related but dunno where else to ask
[07:13] <bulmer> trias what the name of the mount point ?
[07:14] <astro76> John`, audacious and beep-media-players are audio players that look like xmms, but are up to date
[07:14] <Dangerous> #Fc
[07:14] <Dangerous> what is the channel for fedora?
[07:14] <maddog39> its programming related however
[07:14] <SurfnKid> Frogzoo, I copied some files to a disk and everything is 'root' and Im trying to change a few foldres with a gizillion files to a specific user
[07:14] <John`> hmm thanks
[07:14] <astro76> John`, they both do winamp skins
[07:14] <avis> what reasons would a person choose to use the low latency kernel ?
[07:14] <g0dd3ss> screw this, i go to reinstall now XD fun fun fun
[07:14] <Jordan_U> SurfnKid, just use chmod / chown -R
[07:14] <maddog39> im trying to move an app i started developing in php-gtk over to something else because im having issues with the php-gtk binding now
[07:14] <Dangerous> whats the channel for fedora core?
[07:14] <FusE> g0dd3ss
[07:14] <FusE> Just wait
[07:14] <trias> bulmer, "/media/disk"
[07:14] <maddog39> and i cant decide between C or Python
[07:14] <bulmer> SurfnKid: well as someone suggested maybe chmod -R  assuming they are all under one directory
[07:14] <Jordan_U> avis, Serious AV work
[07:15] <SurfnKid> Jordan_U, ok you just spoke to me in chinese
[07:15] <FusE> Dangerous, did you check #fedora
[07:15] <g0dd3ss> lol wait for what i could have had it reinstalled hours ago :P
[07:15] <Frogzoo> SurfnKid: sudo chmod -R
[07:15] <kooz>
[07:15] <Dangerous> yes
[07:15] <bulmer> trias then rm -rf /media/disk/
[07:15] <Dangerous> i guess i am in there... only 48 peeps :(
[07:15] <FusE> Dangerous... apparently not, #fedora exists
[07:15] <SurfnKid> Frogzoo, and how do i give it read and write to all  ?  777 ?

[07:15] <FusE> iratik, where does it say that I do not have an IPaddr
[07:16] <iratik> FusE: do you see an ip address in your ifconfig?
[07:16] <SurfnKid> Jordan_U, thanks
[07:16] <iratik> FusE: do you see a default gateway ?
[07:16] <Jordan_U> SurfnKid, np
[07:16] <maddog39> any1 have any opinions?
[07:16] <trias> bulmer, it comes up with many permission denied messages
[07:16] <RoC_MasterMind> beep is discontinued as of 2005, audacious is the living fork.
[07:17] <g0dd3ss> one last before reinstall hah.... HI can anybody help me, I am using ubuntu fiesty and my wireless usually connects automatically when  I boot, but it's stopped doing it all of a sudden, I don't know why I havent shanged anything. does anyone know how I can fix this? or manually start my wireless?
[07:17] <bulmer> trias do it as root...using sudo
[07:17] <kapace> what should you *not* do if you have ntfs write enabled?
[07:17] <iratik> FuSE: all i can tell you ... is i don't know jack about wireless on ubuntu -- all i know is i couldn't get it to work -- i bought a 100 foot cord... and ran it from the router downstairs up along the side of my house to get internet on here
[07:17] <FusE> iratik, whenever it needs to dhcp, I get the "no dhcpoffers found" "no lease found"
[07:17] <iratik> FusE: &&
[07:17] <John`> astro76: does audacious support last.fm plugin?
[07:17] <FusE> ?
[07:17] <John`> astro76: for feisty that is
[07:17] <bulmer> g0dd3ss: i tried to help you. but you kept forgetting to prefix a nick, so i miss your follow up questions
[07:17] <Jordan_U> iratik, Wouldn't it have been easier to buy a supported card instead?
[07:18] <dissection> Jordan_U: When I run install.sh again, it overwrites the file in /etc/rconnect/ back to sh
[07:18] <astro76> John`, according to the package description it does
[07:18] <iratik> Jordan_U: meh.... i didn't want to screw with it --- i know the hard wire cord will always work
[07:18] <FusE> bulmer, mind repeating it for me? Ive got pretty much the same error, no network on ufeisty but had on udapper
[07:18] <RoC_MasterMind> Jordan_U, no way, 100 foot ethernet cable is $10 on newegg and you don't have to find one that's "linux comaptible"
[07:18] <g0dd3ss> bulmer sorry yes the wireless has an IP, i set it static. havent touched the settings and it worked this morning
[07:18] <bulmer> FusE: which comment i made?
[07:19] <FusE> sec ill look up
[07:19] <astro76> !audacious-plugin-extras | John`
[07:19] <astro76> !info audacious-plugin-extras | John`
[07:19] <ubotu> john`: Package audacious-plugin-extras does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[07:19] <bulmer> g0dd3ss: so your AP can assign a static ip address to your ubuntu?
[07:19] <Frawgie> im running a linksys wWUSB54G v1 USB adapter on here, took me a bit to get it to work
[07:19] <iratik> Whenever the vendors who make wireless cards quit giving microsoft reach arounds to facilitate their domination of the home-user market as a final hinderance to the propagation of linux in the home market .. i'll get a wireless card and install it on ubuntu
[07:19] <John`> astro76: I guess I have to install it from the tar file at the site huh?
[07:20] <g0dd3ss> bulmer no i set the static address in ubuntu myself
[07:20] <FusE> Frogzoo, any ideas?
[07:20] <iratik> untill then ... its quicker to slap a cat5 cable along the side of my house
[07:20] <John`> astro76: and there is no repo for feisty yet
[07:20] <bulmer> g0dd3ss: and the ip address you assigned is not known to the AP..so dont expect it to be served by the AP
[07:20] <astro76> John`, something's weird here
[07:20] <John`> astro76: what do you mean?
[07:21] <iratik> microsoft would rather make deals with vendors of wifi cards to make it difficult for anyone to use wireless on ubuntu -- so that people will give up and just use vista or xp ..... thats bs -- i'm proud to have a blue ribbon of cable snaking aroudn my house
[07:21] <g0dd3ss> bulmer huh? i set it the way i always set it, usually works fine
[07:21] <astro76> John`, I see it in my synaptic, I'm only using standard feisty repos and medibuntu
[07:21] <trias> bulmer, i get "rm: cannot remove directory `/media/disk/': Device or resource busy
[07:21] <trias> "
[07:21] <John`> astro76: I see it too, but its not an up to date version
[07:21] <SurfnKid> ok i gotta read some more
[07:21] <g0dd3ss> gateway <IP_ADDRESS> , ap <IP_ADDRESS>, ubuntu <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:21] <John`> astro76: the version at main site islike 1.3.2 or something
[07:21] <bulmer> g0dd3ss: whats the ip address you assigned to your ubuntu? whats the ip address range used by the AP?
[07:21] <Jordan_U> trias, You need to unmount the partition first
[07:21] <iratik> alright ... here goes my question : http://img366.imageshack.us/my.php?image=devvideo0rf2.png    , as you can see from dmesg... when i plug in the usb webcam -- it shows up and is identified properly ... i show that /dev/video0 is available.. (stat @ http://pastie.caboo.se/79366) ... why isn't camorama webcam viewer able to see the webcam (error message displayed in screenshot) ???
[07:21] <trias> ok
[07:22] <g0dd3ss> bulmer  gateway <IP_ADDRESS> , ap <IP_ADDRESS>, ubuntu <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:22] <bullgard4> ping <IP_ADDRESS> responds: "19 packets transmitted, 0 received, +12 errors, 100% packet loss, time 18000ms, pipe 3." What does 'pipe 3' mean?

[07:23] <Cyber_Stalker> as in i was stupid
[07:23] <bulmer> g0dd3ss: and you have the AP working as dhcp server right? so the <IP_ADDRESS> may not be usable as the AP controls the allocations of those ip addreses
[07:24] <iratik> Cyber_Stalker.. thanks for at least looking at it ... you are the first person in 25 minutes

[07:25] <FusE> Frawgie yes
[07:25] <g0dd3ss> bulmer: no, the ap has dhcp turned off. the ubuntu laptop has windows installed on it also. i se the same ip addressing with windows and it is working fine. it is something scrwed up in ubuntu somewhere but idk where 8-\

[07:27] <trias> bulmer, ok
[07:28] <five_star> does vnc work on 7.04 yet or is that glitch still there?
[07:28] <iratik> so i guess they don't have an #ubuntu-wireless channel yet

[07:28] <Frawgie> FusE here's what I used, I started at the section" Windows Wireless Drives" and followed it step by step
[07:28] <FusE> !ubuntu-wifi
[07:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu-wifi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[07:28] <Jordan_U> five_star, It is only a problem with Desktop Effects enabled
[07:28] <astro76> John`, you sure you can't apt-get install audacious-plugins-extra ?
[07:29] <bulmer> tiras: i am not familiar with diskpart..this is the app to add/subtract spaces to your existing ones (32 bit)
[07:29] <FusE> thanks frawgie
[07:29] <five_star> Jordan_U: :( but that's what I wanted to show to the person that would be VNCing in, what's the problem?
[07:29] <John`> astro76: I haven't try that yet.. I just wonder if I should get the old version or the new one at the site
[07:29] <astro76> John`, I tend to stick with what's in the distro unless there's a necessity otherwise
[07:29] <Frawgie> Jordan_U the compiz-fusion isnt working :( how do i go back to the way it was?
[07:30] <bulmer> trias  maybe  system -->administration --> disk   and look around to resize you partitions
[07:30] <John`> astro76: all right, thanks
[07:30] <trias> bulmer, ok i will look
[07:30] <Jordan_U> five_star, AIGLX does not correctly convey what has changed on the screen so VNC doesn't think the screen has changed and doesn't try to update
[07:30] <iratik> !info spca5xx
[07:30] <ubotu> Package spca5xx does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[07:30] <five_star> Jordan_U: is that what C/F uses?
[07:30] <trias> bulmer, i have no disk in that menu do i need to install something?
[07:31] <FusE> Frawgie, I installed ndiswrapper, but ill reboot
[07:31] <Jordan_U> five_star, You can connect with x11-vnc and there is an option to refresh everything no matter what changes, it's slow but it works
[07:31] <elpargo> hi I'm using df on my disk and it's missing a couple of GBs
[07:31] <bulmer> trias hang on..let me see whats behind it
[07:31] <Frawgie> FusE just follow it step by step, it werkd fer me :D
[07:31] <elpargo> is there a more acurate tool?
[07:31] <Jordan_U> five_star, That is what any 3D accelerated window manager uses
[07:31] <krinns_> helo
[07:32] <five_star> Jordan_U: how slow? also, where can I find a decent guide for VNCserver? Would it allow somebody from windows xp to do it? Also, figured, wasn't sure, I get them mixed up with driver names sometimes.
[07:32] <krinns_> any one works on evolution
[07:32] <bulmer> trias  its disks-admin..so try gksu disks-admin
[07:32] <astro76> elpargo, you use df -h? what's it say and what do you think it should say?
[07:32] <Jordan_U> elpargo, Did you factor in the space taken by the file system itself?
[07:32] <revilodraw> is anyone having trouble with amarok 1.4.6 being slooooow on feisty?
[07:33] <FusE> Feisty Fawn should be renamed Feisty WifiFailure
[07:33] <elpargo> astro76, yes it's giving 44Gb for my data partition while cfdisk says 46Gb
[07:33] <FusE> Id like to see a ubuntu for Wifi
[07:33] <bulmer> five_star: try the NxClient by nomachine ..extremely fast..you need to download it..google for NXclient
[07:33] <revilodraw> fuse: mine works fine
[07:33] <iratik> FusE: throw away your wireless card and get one that noone else has problems with
[07:34] <Jordan_U> FusE, Works great for cards from manufacturers that give a damn
[07:34] <LaserLine> five_star: for VNC you can go here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC
[07:34] <iratik> what did i say 20 minutes ago?
[07:34] <FusE> I got mine free :P
[07:34] <ChazGreymane> fuze, what wifi card you have again?
[07:34] <John`> astro76: just checking, so you still using the old version in the universe?
[07:34] <FusE> my dad brought it home
[07:34] <five_star> bulmer/Laserline/Jordan_U thanks
[07:34] <FusE> sec
[07:34] <Jordan_U> FusE, Even some that don't like broadcom
[07:34] <ChazGreymane> is it the dell broadcom 1390?
[07:34] <elpargo> Jordan_U, don't think ext3 takes 2GB and I believe cfdisk does.
[07:34] <astro76> John`, I haven't used/installed it
[07:34] <iratik> "Whenever the vendors who make wireless cards quit giving microsoft reach arounds to facilitate their domination of the home-user market as a final hinderance to the propagation of linux in the home market .. i'll get a wireless card and install it on ubuntu"
[07:35] <John`> astro76: oh ok
[07:35] <trias> bulmer, when i type that i get the prompt no info displayed
[07:35] <elpargo> FusE, on the contrary networkmanager is great.
[07:35] <cozby> hey, ok, so I'm running dapper and the package i want is in feisty.. how do I go about getting it?
[07:35] <bullgard4> ping <IP_ADDRESS> responds: "19 packets transmitted, 0 received, +12 errors, 100% packet loss, time 18000ms, pipe 3." What does 'pipe 3' mean?
[07:35] <bulmer> iratik: am using an airlink101 cheap card for my ubuntu
[07:35] <FusE> http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/30178/
[07:35] <FusE> thats my network card
[07:35] <bulmer> trias: gksudo must be in the gui not from a console
[07:35] <avis> bulmer, i got an airlink101 wireless usb adaptor that just cost me $10 that works great in ubuntu
[07:35] <iratik> FusE: take bulmer's advice
[07:35] <FusE> I miss the dapper login sound
[07:36] <iratik> FusE: then go back to dapper
[07:36] <FusE> bulmer's advicE?
[07:36] <elpargo> cozby, either you backport it, or get/find someone that did it or upgrade ur system.
[07:36] <bulmer> avis I agree..i gave one to a friend...it works great for her
[07:36] <elpargo> iratik, should it be simpler to redownload it?
[07:37] <cozby> elpargo: thx
[07:37] <iratik> elpargo: what are you talking about?
[07:37] <revilodraw> is anyone having trouble with amarok 1.4.6 being slooooow on feisty?
[07:37] <iratik> apparently airlink101 works well with feisty and only costs 10 bucks... i'd almost consider seeing what that's all about and getting one ... i spent 14 bucks on this cable that snakes around my house
[07:37] <trias> bulmer, ok where do i enter it then?
[07:37] <ChazGreymane> you have the amdtech. I have the dell broadcom one and it works after I found a post on it in the forums.
[07:37] <elpargo> iratik, going back to dapper to get a sound...
[07:37] <cozby> elpargo: ok on the website package search wmaker appears, however when i do apt-cache search wmaker, i get nothing? is it possible my cache is out of date?
[07:37] <ChazGreymane> I thought maybe the 6400 was an alternate model to the e1505
[07:37] <cozby> elpargo: it appears in both feist and dapper
[07:37] <bulmer> trias on you graphical log-in..
[07:37] <FusE> whats airlink101
[07:38] <Frawgie> FusE what's the problem?
[07:38] <PurpZeY> How do I setup an audio passthrough?
[07:38] <elpargo> cozby, are you sure you got multiver or whatever that package is on?
[07:38] <elpargo> is in, on*
[07:38] <FusE> Frawgie, how do I verify that ndiswrapper is working
[07:38] <Frawgie> ndiswrapper -l    see if your driver is listed
[07:38] <bulmer> FusE: some East Indian knock off brand..lolz
[07:38] <cozby> elpargo: multiversion?
[07:38] <FusE> lol
[07:38] <Frogzoo> FusE: ifconfig will show an ip
[07:38] <FusE> so Im looking for adapter
[07:39] <FusE> Frogzoo, doesnt
[07:39] <cozby> elpargo: how might i go about turning thison?
[07:39] <ChazGreymane> I have (i hope) a simple question, how do you change the default program for a certain file type?
[07:39] <ChazGreymane> like I want .swf files to open in firefox
[07:39] <elpargo> cozby, ups sorry multiverse, universe ,etc.
[07:40] <trias> bulmer, I do not see where my graphical login needs the command
[07:40] <Frawgie> brb
[07:40] <cozby> elpargo: i'm not aware of what those are?
[07:40] <cozby> elpargo: some setting for apt?
[07:40] <Jordan_U> ChaoticGood, Right click -> properties
[07:40] <elpargo> ChazGreymane, it's in the context menu 4th tap under properties
[07:40] <bulmer> trias: i meant where you have your graphics stuff..like you can use your browser, but not from a console where its not graphical
[07:41] <bulmer> trias where you can launch xterm
[07:41] <elpargo> cozby, oh that's probably it, could someone send him the ubutu link for the different package repos.
[07:41] <ChaoticGood> (2007-07-17 13:40:27) Jordan_U: ChaoticGood, Right click -> properties <<< huh?

[07:49] <revilodraw> what is demonoid?
[07:49] <Talcite> Why would I be getting trouble with installing ubuntu server 7.04 on a virtual machine?
[07:49] <cozby> elpargo: ah, that was it, cheers mate =)
[07:49] <Talcite> I've tried both VMware and VirtualBox
[07:49] <Jordan_U> Talcite, What kind of trouble?
[07:49] <Talcite> The install completes perfectly, but the machine never boots up
[07:49] <trias> bulmer, a "disksseekd" command wrote in
[07:50] <FusE> oh crap, bulmer, it says storage temperature on this thing: 70 degrees, it can get up to 89/90 in my room
[07:50] <trias> bulmer, oops rather a "diskseekd" command wrote in
[07:50] <elpargo> cozby, great be sure to learn about the repo's you will need it when installing third-party stuff.
[07:50] <Talcite> Jordan_U: it never boots up
[07:50] <FusE> Hobbsee, add "#ubuntu-wifi for Wireless" please
[07:50] <FusE> Its an actual channel
[07:50] <cozby> elpargo: cool, will do
[07:50] <FusE> idk who made it
[07:50] <Talcite> Jordan_U: install and reboot are flawless, the server just never starts for the first time
[07:50] <Hobbsee> FusE: ?
[07:50] <FusE> >.<
[07:50] <eboyjr> How can I install an X11 mouse scheme on Ubuntu?
[07:50] <FusE> bulmer, could temperature affect this
[07:51] <Jordan_U> Talcite, Any errors? Does it get to GRUB ?

[07:52] <Talcite> Jordan_U: yeah, the grub has no problems. In VMware, it starts running rc.conf and freezes. In VirtualBox, it never begins loading the kernel. It gives some error with hex addresses and flags
[07:52] <elpargo> FusE, try to get an intel card they have the best support, if we are still taking about wifi
[07:52] <bulmer> trias  type this....  disks   then press tab twice would show if disks-admin is installed on your system

[07:54] <trias> ok

[08:00] <bluebanana> or perhaps I just don't know how
[08:00] <ama5> any filipino here???? pls. ping me
[08:00] <bryantcaley> gday shiester_miester ;]
[08:00] <bulmer> trias: then use it..am not familiar with the partd options
[08:00] <LMNT_OX> hey all trying to connect to internet via PPPoE with Ubuntu? how do i do so???
[08:01] <FusE> bulmer, what about the $54 dollar one her: http://intel.links.channelintelligence.com/pages/showdealeritems.asp?nVID=11115&nRGID=328
[08:01] <elpargo> FusE, that link is wrong.
[08:01] <FusE> errr no its not
[08:01] <tupa> what's the difference between Desktop and Server edition disks?
[08:01] <xoRock> RoC_MasterMind, ok thx, ill check it
[08:01] <elpargo> FusE, then that's not a wifi card
[08:01] <bulmer> FusE: I dont know man..pick whatever suits your budget..mine i picked the airlink101 because it was 15 bux when it was on sale..lolz
[08:01] <FusE> tupa, Server edition is for, well, running a server
[08:01] <bur[n] e1> server edition has no GUI
[08:01] <tupa> FusE aha, and what if I use it for both !!
[08:01] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, any luck?
[08:01] <sauvin> Once I get Ubuntu installed on this machine, I don't imagine it comes with an IRC client. I prefer XChat. How to install it?
[08:02] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, Still looking
[08:02] <FusE> bleh
[08:02] <sauvin> That, and Kopete. Are these available for ubuntu?
[08:02] <MTecknology> sauvin, sudo apt-get install xchat
[08:02] <FusE> tupa, then get desktop
[08:02] <tupa> FuSE, why 2 discs, it would be wiser to do a network installation
[08:02] <Jordan_U> sauvin, Applications -> Add / Remove
[08:02] <Music_Shuffle_> sauvin, or you could just use Synaptic and find it.
[08:02] <bur[n] e1> sauvin: applications -> add remove -> check xchat
[08:02] <tupa> but ok, I'm installing desktop
[08:02] <ama5> hey watz up man I need help
[08:02] <ljsmithx> hello
[08:02] <sauvin> Kk, thanks.
[08:02] <RoC_MasterMind> !server > tupa
[08:02] <elpargo> tupa, server + gnome = Desktop
[08:02] <Frawgie> sauvin acutally, it does come with an IRC capable client, gaim will do it, but if you want xchat, do:  sudo apt-get install xchat
[08:03] <Jordan_U> sauvin, It does come with Gaim ( though xchat is better for IRC )
[08:03] <bluebanana> how do i get japanese language input support in ubuntu?
[08:03] <tupa> mmmm, server lacks GUI
[08:03] <bryantcaley> ubuntu detects my photo card!! it never did before....awesome
[08:03] <sauvin> Yes, XChat is vastly preferable. :)
[08:03] <RoC_MasterMind> tupa, exactly!  15MB of ram usage!
[08:03] <Jordan_U> !japanese | bluebanana

[08:07] <RoC_MasterMind> ama5, yeah well that is good way to get kicked out.
[08:07] <ChazGreymane> I have another stupid question. what kind of themes can you use in a standard install of Ubuntu? I'm looking on Gnome-look.org and confused as to which themes I can use. lol
[08:07] <tupa> WTF??, at least 256 MB RAM to run desktop install CD????, what about legacy PCs
[08:07] <mo0osah> ama5 ask the question
[08:07] <elpargo> ama5, start with behaving
[08:07] <ama5> hahahah
[08:07] <shiester_miester> ama5, being new is no excuse for deliberately annoying the crap out of everyone
[08:07] <ama5> hahah so
[08:07] <FusE> how is it that my name got highlighted when Chaz said that
[08:07] <FusE> ama5, stfu
[08:07] <astro76> !ohmy | FusE
[08:07] <ubotu> FusE: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:07] <tupa> what if I don't have at least 256 MB RAM
[08:07] <ljsmithx> you guys may need more help channells...
[08:07] <tupa> ?
[08:07] <elpargo> tupa, you may want to check out xubuntu
[08:07] <shiester_miester> ljsmithx, why dont you start one ;)
[08:07] <Jordan_U> FusE, Whenever someone uses your name in a comment it gets highlighted in your client
[08:07] <FusE> astro, we don't want kids reflecting his behaviour
[08:07] <FusE> lol
[08:07] <bastidraZor> xubuntu can run on little as 64mb
[08:08] <MrTsunami> FusE: because there is a fuse in confuse :P
[08:08] <elpargo> that will run in 16 or something ancient like that.
[08:08] <RoC_MasterMind> tupa, you could use it, you will just use some of your swap space..make sure you got some of that...maybe 512MB?
[08:08] <Frawgie> FusE he used the word "confused" and your name is in it :P
[08:08] <FusE> lol
[08:08] <ljsmithx> coz i dont know much about linux in general
[08:08] <elpargo> ahh there you go 64.
[08:08] <martman> i just enabled dektop effects, including the cube(to switch desktops). when ever i switch to a different screen i loose both panels
[08:08] <martman> anyone know why>?
[08:08] <tupa> elpargo I'm using Debian in legacy PCs, and both work fine, I wanted to see what are the differences with ubuntu
[08:08] <sauvin> Does ubuntu use ext3?
[08:08] <ljsmithx> this is confusiung
[08:08] <FusE> I dont get why this is a 'family' channel, considernig it takes alot of knowledge to install ubuntu (ama5 got lucky)
[08:08] <xoRock> instaled ffmpeg, its seem that it only work in terminal, is there anyway i can install the gui version?
[08:08] <Jordan_U> sauvin, Yes
[08:08] <tupa> does Ubuntu installs more stuff than Debian that requires more RAM?
[08:08] <sauvin> Very cool.
[08:08] <ljsmithx> is there a powerpc ubuntu channel?
[08:08] <RoC_MasterMind> sauvin, why...yes
[08:08] <astro76> FusE, so set a good example
[08:08] <Jordan_U> sauvin, Thought you can use whatever you want
[08:09] <Jordan_U> ljsmithx, No
[08:09] <ljsmithx> dang
[08:09] <RoC_MasterMind> xoRock, there's a GUI version?
[08:09] <Frawgie> FusE acutally, the live cd makes it really easy :)  just wondering if ama5's timezone is right
[08:09] <sauvin> Some distros are a bit limited, is my understanding.
[08:09] <Jordan_U> ljsmithx, You can ask here though
[08:09] <FusE> lol
[08:09] <FusE> Well, Im still without network
[08:09] <xoRock> RoC_MasterMind, i dunno, ^^;
[08:09] <ljsmithx> yeah i would, but this channells like flodding with questions
[08:09] <Frawgie> FusE did that tutorial help at all?
[08:09] <FusE> nop
[08:09] <RoC_MasterMind> xoRock, the CLI version functions pretty well and is available to those with CLI and with a GUI.
[08:09] <FusE> But I dont know If I did it correctly
[08:10] <ljsmithx> i wish i new about apt-get before I stoped using ubuntu
[08:10] <FusE> >.<
[08:10] <Frawgie> fuse, you have the windows drivers for that card on hand?
[08:10] <Frawgie> FusE, you have the windows drivers for that card on hand?
[08:10] <ljsmithx> now im on mac
[08:10] <Frawgie> oops, lag ><
[08:10] <FusE> Frawgie, I have the drivers
[08:10] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, I think I got it
[08:10] <xoRock> RoC_MasterMind, i installed trough apt-get ffmpeg
[08:10] <bur[n] e1> ljsmithx: i'm pretty sure ubuntu can work on mac hardware
[08:10] <RoC_MasterMind> ljsmithx, that is a big thing to miss..but don't dispair, Ubuntu runs on Mac too!
[08:10] <ljsmithx> it can
[08:11] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, What is the keycode according to xev?
[08:11] <xoRock> RoC_MasterMind, what should i do to get the GUI version?
[08:11] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, ?
[08:11] <MTecknology> 121
[08:11] <MTecknology> ??
[08:11] <RoC_MasterMind> xoRock, I've never used one, the CLI version was fine for me.  Google around.
[08:11] <Frawgie> fuse, ok, go to the directory where the drivers are and type:  ndiswrapper -i <driver name>.inf
[08:11] <FusE> I did that
[08:11] <ljsmithx> yes, i stoped using it on my x86 bomb beacause there was nothing telling me about installing apps
[08:11] <FusE> ndiswrappers -l said my driver is installed
[08:11] <Frawgie> fuse, ok, type:  ndiswrapper -l
[08:11] <xoRock> RoC_MasterMind, ok thx
[08:11] <Frawgie> k, did it say the device was detected?
[08:11] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, Try running "xmodmap -e 'keycode 121 = Pointer_Button1' && xkbset m"
[08:12] <ljsmithx> i got given my mac
[08:12] <FusE> Frawgie, driver installed, device present
[08:12] <ljsmithx> guys, there is a #ubuntu-powerpc
[08:12] <ljsmithx> ZOMG!
[08:12] <FusE> lol
[08:12] <Frawgie> k, then all you should have to do is:   sudo depmod -a      then:  sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[08:12] <FusE> thers alot of channels you probably dont know about
[08:12] <Jordan_U> ljsmithx, I guess I was wrong :)
[08:12] <ljsmithx> LIAR!
[08:12] <FusE> Frawgie did that
[08:12] <ljsmithx> :D
[08:13] <GraBBer2> What is Z in front of OMG? =p
[08:13] <Dag_> Hey guys, I've been a long time Windows user, 12 years.
[08:13] <Dag_> Now I went all Ubuntu!
[08:13] <bur[n] e1> ljsmithx: it's not supported by new versions of ubuntu
[08:13] <Dag_> Love Gnome, Ubuntu! :D
[08:13] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, should it just begin working?
[08:13] <nathan_> What's the 'next' button in Beryl keybindings?
[08:13] <astro76> Dag_, congratulations
[08:13] <Frawgie> fuse, ok, type:  lfconfig and see if it shows the device, should be like:  wlan0
[08:13] <Dag_> :D
[08:13] <ljsmithx> bur[n] el, i know
[08:13] <shiester_miester> thanks Dag_
[08:13] <gravemind> Frawgie: doesn't he have to modprobe?
[08:13] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, Yes, I guess that means it didn't :(
[08:13] <MTecknology> :(
[08:13] <Dag_> And it's really not so hard either, Ubuntu. I got my friends interressted too, specially with the Beryl installed :D
[08:13] <Frawgie> gravemind he said he did that :)
[08:13] <tupa> is gutsy the unstable version?
[08:13] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, there must be something i'm missing
[08:14] <gravemind> Frawgie: cool beans :)
[08:14] <ljsmithx> im thinking about doing it
[08:14] <ljsmithx> the Z u ask?
[08:14] <tupa> I don't know what to install, gutsy or feisty, I want the latest but not so unstable
[08:14] <FusE> Frawgie, shows what device
[08:14] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, Can you pastebin the actual output from xev?
[08:14] <Dag_> Do you guys know of any cool sites with 1240x1024 or something I think my desktop was, uhm, yeah backgrounds? Cool Linux backgrounds?
[08:14] <Dag_> I needs them :>
[08:14] <gravemind> tupa: feisty
[08:14] <shiester_miester> I'm having a weird network problem.  I'm connecting through a router/modem via CAT5.  The modem connects to the Internet perfectly, but ubuntu doesnt.  About 50% of the time, it just doesn't get an internet connection, at all.  sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart doesnt fix the problem, the only thing that fixes it is restarting ubuntu until it starts working for no apparent reason
[08:14] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, umm...... ok
[08:14] <Jordan_U> tupa, Feisty
[08:14] <Frawgie> fuse, should show the wireless device as wlan0 or something to that effect if the driver is working
[08:14] <FusE> my interface is eth1
[08:14] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, I'll just send it to a file and nopaste that
[08:15] <eboyjr> When shutting down the computer, it does not completely turn off. The last thing that it says is "Will now halt". How can I make it so that it just turns off completely?
[08:15] <ljsmithx> ZOMG! is more exitment than OMG!
[08:15] <tupa> gravemind, and what is gutsy for?
[08:15] <ljsmithx> ZOFMG
[08:15] <shiester_miester> ljsmithx, lol
[08:15] <tupa> is it the developers version gravemind?
[08:15] <ljsmithx> ZOMFG!*
[08:15] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, pastein isn't in the repos... :)
[08:15] <shiester_miester> tupa, gutsy is an unstable new version
[08:15] <|GraBBer|> ljsmithx, k LoL So Z doesn't mean anything particular like the F does? =p
[08:15] <shiester_miester> tupa, its not finished development yet, so we don't usually offer support for it
[08:15] <ljsmithx> yes...

[08:17] <Frawgie> fuse jordan_u ahh that might be why, mine is USB.  ok then fuse, all you should have to do is go to System > Administration > Network to configure the connection
[08:17] <Jordan_U> homerhomer, The framework is better, but just like before if there are good drivers for your card it will work, if not it won't

[08:20] <shiester_miester> ljsmithx, we don't use notepad here ;)
[08:20] <ljsmithx> yep
[08:20] <shiester_miester> telexicon, uhh...2 i think
[08:20] <ljsmithx> i know, i use text edit
[08:20] <shiester_miester> telexicon, 2 of them are plugged in
[08:20] <telexicon> shiester_miester, so you are on 2 networks?
[08:20] <Frawgie> fuse did you blacklist the bcm43xx
[08:20] <PrimoTurbo> from offical images and burned disks, I think the drives are broken but I had no problem installing Windows XP & Vista and can burn movies & music no problem
[08:20] <shiester_miester> kyja, compiz-fusion is even better :D
[08:20] <telexicon> shiester_miester, can you pastebin the output of 'cat /etc/network/interfaces'
[08:20] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, I don't think that it is mapped to a keycode at all, I don't know what to give to xmodmap
[08:21] <FusE> Frawgie, no, but the interfaces file is missing
[08:21] <shiester_miester> telexicon, no, the second one isnt really being used, since I can't get ubuntu > windows networking happening
[08:21] <kyja> realy
[08:21] <kyja> hmmmm
[08:21] <Jordan_U> !install | PrimoTurbo
[08:21] <ubotu> PrimoTurbo: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[08:21] <Frawgie> fuse you have to blacklist that or it wont work at all
[08:21] <telexicon> shiester_miester, is this computer acting as a router?
[08:21] <weltschmerz> can anyone help explain to me in an nfs share what "network" is?
[08:21] <FusE> how
[08:21] <Frawgie> fuse type this:   echo 'blacklist bcm43xx' | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[08:21] <shiester_miester> telexicon, http://pastebin.com/m3b6a2ac0
[08:21] <shiester_miester> telexicon, nope
[08:21] <weltschmerz> i assume netmask is like <IP_ADDRESS> or something.
[08:22] <FusE> Frawgie, wait, I need that file back
[08:22] <ljsmithx> lol, #ubuntu-ljsmithx
[08:22] <Frawgie> if you lose connection, thats in the  /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist file at the end
[08:22] <shiester_miester> telexicon, I'm trying to get a little home network set up but thats unrelated to this problem and none of it is working anyway, except for this computer's internet connection
[08:22] <dissection> When I looked for my USB devices in terminal the last line shows this,,, [25429.994044]  ftdi_sio ttyUSB0: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now disconnected from ttyUSB0
[08:22] <Jordan_U> Frawgie, Just wondering, did he try the native drivers with firmware first?
[08:22] <Frawgie> fuse what file?
[08:22] <FusE> interfaces file
[08:22] <Frawgie> jordan_u no idea :P
[08:22] <telexicon> shiester_miester, are both the cables plugged into the router thing?
[08:22] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, alrighty... I'm going to get some sleep though, i gotta get in in a couple hours
[08:22] <shiester_miester> telexicon, no, just one
[08:22] <zanaga> weltschmerz: usually it's your IP address ending with .0 for example my network is <IP_ADDRESS> with netmask <IP_ADDRESS> and my ip address is something like <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:23] <telexicon> shiester_miester, and the other one is plugged into a switch somewhere else?
[08:23] <Jordan_U> Frawgie, I would suggest he does before trying ndiswrapper
[08:23] <shiester_miester> telexicon, no, its plugged into another computer downstairs which isn't turned on at the moment
[08:23] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, if you come across anything you can drop me a message, thanks for the help
[08:23] <zanaga> weltschmerz: a handy tool to calculcate all these is ipcalc if you want the easy way to find out your equivalents
[08:23] <Frawgie> jordan_u well he said some time back he had wiki'd and whatnot a bunch tryin to figure this thing out, so i would assume he ran across it somewhere, didnt ask though
[08:23] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, np
[08:23] <shiester_miester> telexicon, i dont have any fancy network hardware ;) all i have is my adsl modem, 3 computers and 3 crossover cables
[08:23] <shiester_miester> thats all
[08:23] <telexicon> shiester_miester, ok
[08:24] <telexicon> shiester_miester, why the static ip address?
[08:24] <Jordan_U> FusE, Did you try bcm43xx-fwcutter already ?
[08:24] <ljsmithx> i dont have the os 10 install disks, so should i erase os 10 and install ubutnu?
[08:24] <FusE> hold on
[08:24] <FusE> my interfaces file is missing
[08:24] <shiester_miester> telexicon, thats for the one not plugged into the modem.  apparently I need to use a static IP to be able to network with the other computer and use internet connection sharing
[08:24] <Jordan_U> ljsmithx, No, keep it for firmware updates if nothing else
[08:25] <ljsmithx> what do u mean?
[08:25] <telexicon> shiester_miester, which eth is plugged into the modem and which to the other comp?
[08:25] <tupa> does ubuntu/kubuntu/xubuntu use the same packages but different desktop environments?
[08:25] <Pozaro> is gnash any good
[08:25] <weltschmerz> but zanaga but i don't know what is meant by "Network"
[08:25] <Jordan_U> ljsmithx, You can't get any firmware updates with Ubuntu
[08:25] <telexicon> Pozaro, its getting there, not ready yet
[08:25] <bur[n] er> Pozaro: as good as advertised
[08:25] <shiester_miester> telexicon, the one that doesnt have a static IP is plugged into the modem, otherwise I wouldn't be online right now ;)
[08:25] <ljsmithx> ok
[08:25] <Pozaro> :(
[08:25] <shiester_miester> telexicon, i think its ETH1
[08:25] <telexicon> shiester_miester, good point
[08:26] <Pozaro> so the best thing is to get the flashlugin-nonfre
[08:26] <Pozaro> where do i install it
[08:26] <ljsmithx> Jordan, how do I know if im uptodate im using an old imac atm
[08:26] <zanaga> weltschmerz: in /etc/exports? it means the network address (the address i just mentioned)
[08:26] <Jordan_U> ljsmithx, You will need to turn off journaling in OSx to be able to resize the partition
[08:26] <ljsmithx> ok
[08:26] <FusE> Frawgie
[08:26] <Frawgie> fuse i can give you a cope of mine, but i dont think that would help :P
[08:26] <ljsmithx> ill open disk util
[08:26] <telexicon> shiester_miester, type: sudo ifdown eth1
[08:26] <FusE> errr
[08:26] <telexicon> shiester_miester, er, eth0
[08:26] <FusE> what should I do >.<
[08:27] <weltschmerz> zanaga no, not in /etc/exports  in the gnome sharing program.
[08:27] <Jordan_U> ljsmithx, Check the update-manager, I guess on something that old there probably won't be any updates
[08:27] <Frawgie> did you type that blacklist command in?
[08:27] <ljsmithx> whos the person who wanted the mac fonts?
[08:27] <astro76> Pozaro, just type the command: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[08:27] <weltschmerz> whatever it's called.
[08:27] <shiester_miester> telexicon, how will turning off the other device help?
[08:27] <FusE> not yet
[08:27] <tupa> oh okey, I checked it in wiki
[08:27] <weltschmerz> invoked from nautilus
[08:27] <shiester_miester> i mean the other connection
[08:27] <telexicon> shiester_miester, it makes things simpler
[08:27] <telexicon> shiester_miester, it removes variables
[08:27] <ljsmithx> yeah, the os itself needs updating
[08:27] <shiester_miester> ok
[08:27] <ljsmithx> im on os 10.4.9
[08:27] <zanaga> weltschmerz: hmm.. i'm not too familiar with that, but i'd assume it's still that same address
[08:27] <Pozaro> astro and fter i type that i can use flash ?
[08:27] <shiester_miester> telexicon, done
[08:27] <Jordan_U> ljsmithx, So I guess you could just whipe OSx
[08:27] <telexicon> shiester_miester, whats the ip of the router?
[08:27] <Frawgie> fuse type it, it wont hurt you til you reboot, then it should let you use the wireless, if it doesnt, just depmod and modprobe again and it should fire up
[08:27] <elpargo> FusE, listen to the little voice inside your head
[08:27] <ljsmithx> yeah, but i have two problems
[08:27] <telexicon> shiester_miester, pastebin 'route -n'
[08:28] <Jordan_U> FusE, Did you try bcm43xx-fwcutter already ?
[08:28] <FusE> elpargo, the one that says burn my computer?
[08:28] <telexicon> shiester_miester, and 'cat /etc/resolv.conf'
[08:28] <Frawgie> brb, need a drink :)
[08:28] <elpargo> FusE, umm yup that's probably it.
[08:28] <telexicon> shiester_miester, and ethtool eth1
[08:28] <ljsmithx> ill probly ask this when the chans alittle quiet but i need to know how to compile from source
[08:28] <iiiyel> ha ha ha
[08:28] <ljsmithx> :(
[08:28] <Jordan_U> !compile | ljsmithx
[08:28] <ubotu> ljsmithx: 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!)
[08:29] <Jordan_U> ljsmithx, You will almost never need to do it though
[08:29] <ljsmithx> kool
[08:29] <ljsmithx> isnt there a lack of support for powerpc linux apps?
[08:29] <shiester_miester> telexicon, http://pastebin.com/m25f7e9b1
[08:30] <Jordan_U> ljsmithx, No, everything open source available for x86 is available for PPC
[08:30] <FusE> Frawgie, I ran it
[08:30] <shiester_miester> telexicon, the first part is from route -n
[08:30] <shiester_miester> i forgot to label it
[08:30] <Jordan_U> ljsmithx, Same repository lists basically
[08:30] <ljsmithx> AHHHHHHHHHH
[08:30] <telexicon> shiester_miester, dang, i hate it when ISP give out lame private IPs
[08:30] <ljsmithx> great
[08:30] <telexicon> shiester_miester, im sorry
[08:30] <Confuse-a-cat> Hello, I need help on an Ubuntu installation that continually crashes on bootup, both in regular installation mode and in safe mode. Can anyone help?
[08:30] <ljsmithx> GOOD GOOD
[08:30] <shiester_miester> telexicon, eh?
[08:31] <FusE> Frawgie, I ran it
[08:31] <ljsmithx> aww dude, thats been teh thing thats stoped me from installing ubuntu
[08:31] <Jordan_U> ljsmithx, And with proprietary apps compiling from source won't do much good :)
[08:31] <ljsmithx> the*
[08:31] <ljsmithx> WIKED
[08:31] <zanaga> Confuse-a-cat: what kind of an error is displayed when it crashes?
[08:31] <ljsmithx> i might install it today then
[08:31] <telexicon> shiester_miester, oh maybe its your router/modem
[08:31] <ljsmithx> yesyesyesyesyesyesy
[08:31] <dissection> When I looked for my USB devices in terminal the last line shows this,,, [25429.994044]  ftdi_sio ttyUSB0: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now disconnected from ttyUSB0
[08:31] <weltschmerz> what is meant by "network" in the Nautilus share configuration?
[08:31] <FusE> zanaga, nothing crashes
[08:32] <Jordan_U> ljsmithx, To be clear there are a lot of closed source apps that can't be installed at all like flash
[08:32] <dissection> Anyone knows what to do?
[08:32] <FusE> 65
[08:32] <ljsmithx> yeah
[08:32] <ljsmithx> Adobe's flash u mean?
[08:32] <Jordan_U> ljsmithx, Yes
[08:32] <FusE> Frawgie, I ran it
[08:32] <ljsmithx> is there an open-source clone somewear?
[08:32] <Jordan_U> ljsmithx, gnash can give you your youtube fix though :)
[08:32] <telexicon> shiester_miester, well, now the only problem is, i need all this information again when its not working
[08:32] <shiester_miester> telexicon, it can't be, because I just turn it on and don't touch it.  the lights on it report a working connection, its only ubuntu that doesn't do it for some reason, and if i restart once or twice it usually works (again, without touching the modem at all)
[08:32] <ljsmithx> kool
[08:32] <bur[n] er> weltschmerz: samba or nfs network
[08:32] <ljsmithx> well
[08:33] <Pozaro> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[08:33] <Pozaro> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[08:33] <FusE> hi bur[n] er, guess what im her for :P
[08:33] <Confuse-a-cat> zanaga: occasionally I get a kernel panic, but it's been quite varied. Rarely I'm able to get to a desktop screen and attempt an installation, but it always crashes out. It sounds like a hardware issue, but I can't imagine what could be causing it.
[08:33] <RoC_MasterMind> ljsmithx, there is a workaround, and there are two Free flash projects.
[08:33] <shiester_miester> telexicon, if it was a problem with the modem then restarting ubuntu certainly wouldn't make any difference, since the modem has it's own connection altogether
[08:33] <conorkirkpatrick> Pozaro: sudo su
[08:33] <Pozaro> can someone please tel me why im getting this
[08:33] <telexicon> shiester_miester, i understand
[08:33] <ljsmithx> i might start backing up my stuff, and ill get going on the install soon
[08:33] <Jordan_U> ljsmithx, And anything that you can get a .flv from with soething like getvid you can play the actual .flv file just fine
[08:33] <zanaga> Confuse-a-cat: have you tried running the memory tester from the installation CD?
[08:33] <dissection> Pozaro: Check if synaptic is running.
[08:33] <RoC_MasterMind> !flash64 > ljsmithx
[08:33] <Pozaro> yup
[08:33] <zanaga> Confuse-a-cat: it could be a memory issue
[08:33] <dissection> Pozaro: You need to close it
[08:33] <ljsmithx> umm
[08:34] <Confuse-a-cat> zanaga: yes, I thought so as well, but the memory test all checked out.
[08:34] <shiester_miester> telex, I can make it reliably not work :P all I do is turn on ubuntu before I turn on the adsl router and it refuses to connect no matter what I do
[08:34] <ljsmithx> its a 32-bit powerpc
[08:34] <weltschmerz> bur[n] er no, i've already chosen nfs.
[08:34] <FusE--> Im tired of my name being highlighted lol
[08:34] <shiester_miester> *telexicon,
[08:34] <telexicon> shiester_miester, it would be interesting to see if these things worked, ping <IP_ADDRESS>, ping <IP_ADDRESS>, ping <IP_ADDRESS>... when the connection isnt working
[08:34] <ljsmithx> not AMD-64
[08:34] <zanaga> Confuse-a-cat: odd. Which distribution version?
[08:34] <shiester_miester> telexicon, ok then
[08:34] <Pozaro> :)
[08:34] <FusE--> Frawgie, you there?
[08:34] <Confuse-a-cat> zanaga: 7.04
[08:34] <bur[n] er> weltschmerz: ok, have fun with that
[08:34] <telexicon> shiester_miester, as well as all the other information you sent me :)
[08:34] <shiester_miester> telex, yup
[08:34] <Pozaro> thanks it let me tpe the command now
[08:34] <ljsmithx> brb, u guys are SOOOOO MUCH HELP!!!
[08:34] <ljsmithx> :D
[08:34] <shiester_miester> telexicon, what other information was it again?
[08:34] <telexicon> shiester_miester, you can press tab to autocomplete names :)
[08:35] <weltschmerz> :(
[08:35] <Pozaro> but now i have 1 more problem :( linuxis confusing
[08:35] <zanaga> Confuse-a-cat: do you have a Wireless NIC?
[08:35] <Pozaro> Package flashplugin-nonfree is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[08:35] <shiester_miester> telexicon, yes i know, i just forgot to
[08:35] <Pozaro> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[08:35] <Pozaro> is only available from another source
[08:35] <weltschmerz> why is this so freakin complicated?  it should be so simple.
[08:35] <telexicon> shiester_miester, cat /etc/network/interfaces, cat /etc/resolv.conf, ifconfig, ethtool eth1
[08:35] <Confuse-a-cat> zanaga: no, just the ethernet that came with the Mboard
[08:35] <FusE--> Frawgie....
[08:35] <Jordan_U> Pozaro, You need to enable all the repositories
[08:35] <dissection> Pozaro: You'll need to add repos
[08:35] <Pozaro> ahh
[08:35] <Jordan_U> Pozaro, System -> Administration -> Software Sources
[08:35] <zanaga> Confuse-a-cat: too bad, there was an issue in the broadcom driver that caused something similar
[08:36] <|_ocke> so im trying to do steam in wine, i've got it all running and logged in and the fonts working and everything
[08:36] <Cubey> ugh, and this is why i don't like linux. stuff freaken doesnt work
[08:36] <|_ocke>  i can browse the webpages that show up, but i cant click any of the menus or click on 'my games' to got counterstrike source downloaded
[08:36] <Confuse-a-cat> zanaga: ahh, I wish it were something with an easy explanation
[08:36] <shiester_miester> Cubey, I feel your pain
[08:36] <|_ocke> any ideas?
[08:36] <Cubey> i've been trying for 3 hours to get flash to play
[08:36] <telexicon> Cubey, it can have some issues
[08:36] <shiester_miester> Cubey, although similar things happen with any OS
[08:36] <zanaga> Confuse-a-cat: you could try an older version just to see if the problem is just in 7.04
[08:36] <Jordan_U> Cubey, Try #winehq
[08:36] <bur[n] er> Cubey: 64-bit or 32-bit?
[08:36] <Cubey> 32
[08:36] <telexicon> but it doesnt run on 75% of supercomputers by not working
[08:36] <Confuse-a-cat> zanaga: Thanks, I will give that a try
[08:36] <Cubey> i can't even get normal flash to play in firefox
[08:36] <bur[n] er> Cubey: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[08:37] <shiester_miester> Cubey, its not a linux problem, its because the people who make software rarely devote as much attention to linux code as they do to windows code
[08:37] <FusE--> Jordan_U I blacklisted that bmww.... thing
[08:37] <telexicon> Cubey, adobe has some serious issues also
[08:37] <shiester_miester> Cubey, if they worked as hard on linux code as they did on windows code, everything would be much better ;)
[08:37] <bur[n] er> shiester_miester: it's not that either... its that flash is proprietary and can't be included with Ubuntu
[08:37] <Pozaro> updates right
[08:37] <Jordan_U> FusE--, Have you actually installed NDISwrapper yet?
[08:37] <FusE--> yews
[08:38] <shiester_miester> bur[n] er, yes but they could always make a downloadable installer for it
[08:38] <Cubey> shiester_miester, package can't be foundf
[08:38] <Jordan_U> FusE--, If it is working then fine, just know that there are native open source drivers built into Ubuntu
[08:38] <RoC_MasterMind> shiester_miester, we have that.
[08:38] <Confuse-a-cat> zanaga: I think this might be a little telling... this computer has gone through a few moves overseas, and after trying to install XP recently I discovered sound drivers would install, but no sound would be produced.
[08:38] <FusE--> its not
[08:38] <Jordan_U> FusE--, They just need furmware that broadcom won't let them distribute
[08:38] <shiester_miester> RoC_MasterMind, i was referring to one that has had as much attention devoted to it as to the windows version
[08:38] <_atomic> Hi
[08:38] <bur[n] er> Cubey: that apt-get line works to get flash if you have universe enabled... alternatively, click applications, add/remove, in the top right change to "all available applications" then search for "restricted" to get ubuntu restricted extras
[08:38] <shiester_miester> RoC_MasterMind, such that it is equally usable and stable etc
[08:38] <telexicon> Cubey, you ready to have it work?
[08:38] <FusE--> gtg
[08:38] <dissection> [25429.994044]  ftdi_sio ttyUSB0: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now disconnected from ttyUSB0 <---- Why does it say this?
[08:39] <Confuse-a-cat> zanaga: I'm suspecting there could be some real quirky hardware issues
[08:39] <bur[n] er> telexicon: i beat you to it ;)
[08:39] <zanaga> Confuse-a-cat: it could be a motherboard issue then. Usually when i've run in to motherboard issues it's more like on/off type of thing
[08:39] <Jordan_U> FusE--, Then Remove ndis and sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[08:39] <RoC_MasterMind> yeah i'd wait a couple days
[08:39] <RoC_MasterMind> for the fixed version of flash to get released *.48
[08:39] <RoC_MasterMind> some security fixes.
[08:39] <Cubey> hohum... i'm in KDE. so i have the other package manager
[08:39] <telexicon> bur[n] er, perhaps
[08:39] <shiester_miester> telexicon, I'll restart and do those commands when the connection isnt working
[08:39] <RoC_MasterMind> I mean..for it to make it down to us.
[08:39] <telexicon> shiester_miester, ok
[08:39] <RoC_MasterMind> I'd love to know if there's a way I can upgrade what I have on the other computers.
[08:39] <bur[n] er> Cubey: i am not a kde user, so I don't know the specifics, but you need the universe repositories enabled and then you get "ubuntu-restricted-extras"
[08:39] <zanaga> Confuse-a-cat: the only way to find out for sure is to start switching parts, and that's no fun
[08:40] <Jordan_U> RoC_MasterMind, What do you mean?
[08:40] <Cubey> I have them all set to universe. i think.
[08:40] <RoC_MasterMind> Upgrade the Flash plugin.
[08:40] <bur[n] er> Cubey: then you're hosed
[08:40] <bur[n] er> heh
[08:40] <bur[n] er> !sources.list
[08:40] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[08:40] <Confuse-a-cat> zanaga:  Yeah... I've been messing with this thing for a few days already and am about ready to start again from scratch.
[08:40] <RoC_MasterMind> Also flashplugin-nonfree is broken right now....I'm not sure if I should use the browser-based install toolbar whenever you goto a flash site.
