[03:38] <seraphim> eirejah: dist-upgrade to dapper
[03:38] <eirejah> seraphim: do i just do dist-upgrade?
[03:38] <eirejah> thats it
[03:38] <seraphim> you have to change all "breezy" in /etc/apt/sources.list to "dapper"
[03:39] <danf_1979> Who here works on ubuntu? programming, webhosting and other tech works?
[03:39] <eirejah> ok
[03:39] <seraphim> then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[03:39] <eirejah> and thats it then?
[03:39] <seraphim> but be warned
[03:39] <eirejah> ok right
[03:39] <seraphim> it's still testing
[03:39] <eirejah> ok
[03:39] <eirejah> what can that mean
[03:39] <eirejah> in worst case scenario
[03:39] <seraphim> that it can break your sys
[03:39] <eirejah> right

[03:49] <drcode> Is there program that I can sort my folder by size ?
[03:49] <Serpente> eirejah, once you've got the thing installed can you use debian packages or does ubuntu have its own versions of packages?

[03:54] <tanath> it's not making measurements
[03:54] <IdleOne> NeverDream, no it wasnt
[03:54] <IdleOne> NeverDream, www.ubuntu.com/testing for flight5 iirc
[03:55] <danf_1979> edoardo, do you have some good freebsd articules at hand?
[03:55] <tanath> i've installed chrony, and set the servers to online in the chrony.conf file, but it doesn't make measurements. can anyone help?
[03:55] <yamathan> Wait, wait, since when is my username owned by someone else?
[03:56] <NeverDream> is flight 5 fairly stable?
[03:56] <yamathan> Ah, nevermind.
[03:56] <yamathan> This is a windows-related question, but what's wrong with my router?  I'm attempting to do some port-forwarding and I'm getting some weird 404 errors.

[03:56] <IdleOne> NeverDream, get more info concerning dapper in #ubuntu+1 :)

[03:56] <NeverDream> IdleOne, ok, sorry 'bou that :)
[03:57] <gabbah> is .xpm a particular format or is it really just a png file?
[03:57] <IdleOne> NeverDream, no problem just telling you cause they can answer you better

[03:57] <Abnix> access, hmm that reminds me, what do I need to do to get ssh going here?
[03:57] <gabbah> can i just rename a .png to .xpm and use it as an icon?
[03:57] <eirejah> can someone PLEASE tell me where i can get libss.10.9.8  ?
[03:57] <tritium> Abnix: sudo apt-get install openssh-server

[04:02] <danf_1979> article, sorry

[04:04] <eirejah> crimsun: ok thanks
[04:04] <NeverDream> where does ubuntu keep it's apt cache?
[04:04] <NeverDream> s/it's/its/
[04:04] <crimsun> eirejah: if you desperately need the newer version, grab the deb-src from dapper and apt-get build-dep libssl0.9.8, then generate a deb locally (or use pbuilder)
[04:05] <jlhenry> can anyone tell me how can I do a script that move file named "filename.new" to "filename"?
[04:05] <crimsun> eirejah: sorry, that would be ``apt-get build-dep libssl0.9.7''
[04:05] <_jason> jlhenry: mv
[04:05] <jlhenry> _jason, ...
[04:06] <jlhenry> _jason, yes I know
[04:06] <_jason> jlhenry: no, seriously
[04:06] <jlhenry> _jason, but I've got 72 files
[04:06] <jlhenry> _jason, I know a bit "sed" but can't figure out how to use it to do that
[04:06] <_jason> jlhenry: do you just want to rename them?
[04:07] <dj-fu> Use find
[04:07] <jlhenry> _jason, I just want to know how i can say "remove the .new"
[04:07] <_jason> jlhenry: man rename, let me know if you have questions
[04:09] <jlhenry> _jason, the problem i think is not the tool, i could do it with rename or mv. the pb comes to write the argument
[04:09] <jlhenry> I do not know how I can say "mv ****.new ****"
[04:10] <_jason> jlhenry: rename -n 's/\.new//' *, should do work right.  If it works just get rid of the -n so it actually acts on the files
[04:11] <eggzeck> s/\.new//?? =o
[04:12] <jlhenry> _jason, thanks a lot!
[04:12] <_jason> jlhenry: np
[04:12] <jlhenry> that was the 's/\.new//' I was searching
[04:13] <_jason> jlhenry: do you understand it?
[04:13] <ifr> Hey all. Want to upgrade my OOo, but I'm told I have the latest by apt. I'm at version 1.9. somethin and on my dapper install it;'s 2.0.2 so what gives? I;m under breezy. Must I get a special source for OOo?
[04:13] <Fujitsu> eggzeck, s/something/something else/ will replace 'something' with 'something else'.
[04:13] <_jason> !ooo2
[04:13] <ubotu> To upgrade to OOo 2.0.x, see http://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2005-October/012520.html (add one of the 'deb' lines to sources.list and update+upgrade)
[04:13] <jlhenry> as I'm doing it on mutliple files and subdirectories, I use find
[04:13] <eggzeck> I know what a substitution is :)
[04:13] <ifr> nj -jason
[04:13] <eggzeck> ;P
[04:13] <jlhenry> _jason, yes I understand it. I was just not imagine that this was just like that! :)
[04:14] <eggzeck> but thanks for the enlightenment Fujitsu :P
[04:14] <ifr> I meant, thank you, _jason ;)
[04:15] <_jason> ifr: np
[04:16] <cabajgtr> Can some one help me fix a missing sound card problem?
[04:16] <cabajgtr> it shows up in "lspci" but esd says no card found
[04:16] <dj-fu> use alsa
[04:16] <jlhenry> _jason, there is probably shorter, but here what i done
[04:16] <jlhenry> for i in `find . -type f -exec grep -q hosts {} \; -print` ; do mv $i `echo $i | sed -e "s/\.new//"`; done
[04:16] <_jason> jlhenry: ouch

[04:17] <mebaran> hey
[04:17] <mebaran> I want a device availalbe from two folders
[04:17] <mebaran> /mnt/av and /home/av
[04:17] <mebaran> should I just mount the same device both places
[04:17] <mebaran> or use a bind mount
[04:19] <mebaran> I'm using a bind mount right now; is that the best way?
[04:19] <pippins> ln -s
[04:19] <jlhenry> dj-fu, :)
[04:20] <dj-fu> mebaran, as pippins says, a symlink is probably the best way to go.
[04:21] <pippins> dj-fu, same one from the blackhat days? :)
[04:21] <dj-fu> possibly
[04:21] <dj-fu> I don't think there are any other dj-fu's
[04:21] <mebaran> dj-fu, I have but one problem
[04:22] <mebaran> I need to overcome a chroot
[04:22] <mebaran> it has to cross a chroot which is why I'm doing bind mount
[04:22] <mebaran> ln -s I don't think let's you escape a chroot
[04:22] <mebaran> or else it's a GIANT security whole
[04:22] <mebaran> *hole
[04:25] <brownie17> how do i make all .avi's open with totem instead of vlc?
[04:25] <FunnyLookinHat> What should I install to unpack .rar files?
[04:25] <FunnyLookinHat> file-rollre doesn't handle
[04:26] <_jason> !rar
[04:26] <ubotu> hmm... rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FileCompression
[04:26] <FunnyLookinHat> ty
[04:26] <FunnyLookinHat> should have thought of that

[04:32] <[BreliC] > oops, wrong channel :)
[04:32] <sweven> I get completely through the CD and then after restarting it says "Operating system not found"
[04:32] <sweven> I've tried to install 3 times, partitioning different ways
[04:32] <brownie17> while installing it told me to get a computer that wasn't crap
[04:32] <pippins> check what is booting in the bios
[04:32] <sweven> with the same results
[04:32] <pippins> partition active?
[04:33] <sweven> it's set to look for the CD drive first, then the hard drive
[04:33] <makaveli> put hard drive 1st
[04:33] <sweven> I tried that, but I will try again
[04:33] <pippins> shouldnt make a difference
[04:33] <pippins> it will default to his drive if their is no cd in the drive
[04:33] <akcom> Has anyone had any success with either MOV or WMV files on ubuntu/ppc?
[04:34] <khafra> What does this mean?: Mar 23 22:30:52 localhost sensord:   Memory size (MB): Invalid 13 11 2 4
[04:34] <pippins> lm-sensor broke
[04:35] <khafra> Ah.  How 'bout if my motherboard is generally around 40-50C, and it says the max should be 40?
[04:35] <sweven> so yeah...  it's still not working?
[04:35] <sweven> I ran memtest earlier and the (small amount) of RAM is fine
[04:35] <sweven> I'm not so sure about the hard drive
[04:36] <pippins> are you sure you partitioned the drive correctly etc...
[04:36] <sweven> I did the guided partitioning
[04:36] <ubushine> sweven, can you boot with the livecd and see if you have /boot vmlinuzxxxx and other things in / ?
[04:36] <sweven> nothing special
[04:36] <pippins> fdisk
[04:36] <pippins> then p
[04:37] <sweven> Let me boot with the Live CD, brb

[04:38] <makaveli> !winmodem

[04:46] <crimsun> [oss vs. alsa]
[04:47] <Madpilot> pjv, you can get sudo to run w/o a password, but that's really not recommended
[04:47] <sweven> I know this is a difficult problem but please don't ignore me
[04:47] <ubushine> pjv, i used to have an example. i'll try to find
[04:47] <pjv> Madeye: i know but i'd like to try it out :(
[04:47] <pjv> damn there's a lot of users here
[04:48] <pjv> ubushine: ty

[04:49] <edoardo> ubushine, how do i start xdamage? in what section? how do i load the extension?
[04:50] <ubushine> pjv, here's what damn small linux does to /etc/sudoers: ALL=NOPASSWD :ALL

[04:57] <lasindi> Madpilot: I can't seem to find anything. lilo messaged me telling me I had the vulnerability, and that I should go get a firmware upgrade (after reconnecting on port 8001), but I can't find that upgrade.
[04:58] <volmarias> Question: Where is the default configuration file for iptables in Ubuntu?
[04:58] <Madpilot> lasindi, I don't have a Netgear router, so I'm not sure - surprised you can't find it on their website, though
[04:58] <pjv> ubushine: i should of used visudo, that was the problem, ok ty it works now
[04:58] <Madpilot> !tell htrp about fonts
[04:59] <_jason> ubotu: tell htrp about fonts
[04:59] <ubushine> good to hear
[05:00] <miguel> hello. I'm having a problem to build a project. it's a program written in C. Two libraries are missing. I beleave these are standard libs. rhese are the libs: readline history ncurses.
[05:00] <truz24> Where is the screen to define shortcuts ? ( windows_key + D  to show desktop for instance )
[05:00] <miguel> did I missed some development packege?
[05:00] <_jason> truz24: system > preferences  > keyboard shortcuts
[05:00] <majd> Hey, what's a good program to burn video cds?
[05:00] <volmarias> Question: Where is the default configuration file for iptables in Ubuntu?
[05:01] <bimberi> majd: k3b
[05:01] <_jason> volmarias: iptables has no rules in a default install
[05:01] <lasindi> Madpilot: this is the closest I got: http://kbserver.netgear.com/products/wgr614v6.asp There's a firmware update there, but it was released in May 2005.
[05:01] <lasindi> Er, January 2006
[05:01] <volmarias> _jason, ok. If I make a change to iptables, will that change survive through a reboot? If not, how do I specify the default ruleset on startup?
[05:02] <majd> bimberi, i'm on gnome
[05:02] <_jason> !iptables-initscript
[05:02] <ubotu> [iptables-initscript]  to have iptables rules loaded at system startup you have to create your own initscript (try !initscript for more info), or use a tool like firestarter or shorewall, which both have their initscripts.
[05:02] <Kirsch> hey guys, i'm trying to install a linux module but i need the source code, but when i do "apt-get install kernel-headers-`uname -r`" it doesn't find it, should i apt-get something else?
[05:03] <dcgarri> could anyone tell me a speedy way (if it exists) to remove the gnome desktop environment?  I know have KDE and would like to use it as default
[05:03] <volmarias> thanks _jason
[05:03] <volmarias> !initscript
[05:03] <ubotu> somebody said initscript was make your own initscripts based on /etc/init.d/skeleton. To enable your initscript use update-rc.d.
[05:03] <bimberi> majd: for gnome there's graveman and gnomebaker, not sure if they do Video CD's though.  k3b will run ok - just brings in a lot of KDE libraries with it
[05:03] <Toma-> debfoster will do that dcgarri
[05:04] <dcgarri> thank you
[05:05] <eae> Hey guys, I can't work my wireless. Can someone troubleshoot me thru it?
[05:05] <eae> It works in Windows.
[05:05] <bryan986> Is it bad to put start up scripts that I want to run before I login in the /etc/init.d folder, it looks like there is system stuff in there...
[05:05] <miguel> hello. I'm having a problem to build a project. it's a program written in C. 3 libraries are missing. I beleave these are standard libs. rhese are the libs: readline history ncurses.
[05:06] <Toma-> bryan986: just make your own script and put it in init.d
[05:06] <mikes_> hey i need dome help. when i update ubuntu i get this W: Couldn't stat source package list cdrom://Ubuntu 5.10 _Breezy Badger_ - Release i386 (20051012) breezy/'universe Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/Ubuntu%205.10%20%5fBreezy%20Badger%5f%20-%20Release%20i386%20(20051012)_dists_breezy_'universe_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[05:07] <bimberi> mikes_: the CD doesn't have a universe (or multiverse) repository
[05:07] <Toma-> mikes_: open up /etc/apt/sources.list and put a # infront of the line about the ubuntu cd
[05:07] <Mabus06>
[05:07] <jodanlime> hey, I have a usb scanner and it says that sane supports it well, but I cant figure out how to get it to work under breezy, can somebody help me?
[05:07] <mikes_> toma-: thanks
[05:07] <Toma-> mikes_: np
[05:08] <mikes_> bimberi:thanks
[05:08] <bimberi> mikes_: yw :)
[05:08] <tux> hi guys
[05:09] <wannabe> anyone here knows how can i install macromedia flsh on my ubuntu?
[05:09] <Toma-> !flash
[05:09] <ubotu> Installation & troubleshooting for Flash is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[05:09] <john_> hey
[05:10] <wannabe> is there an alternative of flash on linux?
[05:11] <jodanlime> anyone know about sane and scanners?
[05:11] <Toma-> umm. flash is flash... theres a 'free' version of it?
[05:11] <tristanmike> !flash
[05:11] <ubotu> Installation & troubleshooting for Flash is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[05:12] <wannabe> i mean not the flash player but the application itself
[05:12] <Toma-> flash development?
[05:12] <wannabe> anyone knows if theres a wiki on how can i install it on ubuntu?
[05:13] <Toma-> !wine
[05:13] <wannabe> is there a complete wiki?
[05:13] <Toma-> ubotu: say wine
[05:13] <ubotu> Toma-: No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:13] <Kyral> wannabe: I tend to use Firefox as the player itself
[05:13] <wannabe> sowee im a newbie
[05:13] <Toma-> wannabe: you can use wine to run the windows version
[05:14] <Kyral> sometimes you have to look for the unorthodox solutions (which often are fun)
[05:14] <wannabe> Toma-, really, is there a wiki on it?
[05:14] <bryan986> If I wanted my startup script to run after gdm loads but before you login, where should i put it?
[05:14] <Toma-> ubotu: tell wannabe about wine
[05:14] <jodanlime> help with my scanner please!!
[05:14] <mikes_> runnin apilications on wine is slower than run them at windows?
[05:14] <wannabe> Toma-, a step by step guide?
[05:16] <Toma-> wannabe: yeh. copy and paste this into a terminal then. "sudo echo "deb http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt binary/" >> /etc/apt/sources.list" && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install wine"
[05:16] <Munchkinguy> You'll have to forgive me for asking a Xubuntu question here, but... How do I set up printers in Xubuntu.
[05:16] <Toma-> then run "wine ProgramThatYouWant.exe"
[05:16] <wannabe> Toma-, thnx a lot
[05:16] <Toma-> wannabe: np
[05:17] <poikol> hi all !
[05:18] <poikol> anybody can help me with an " 5.25'' external ide box
[05:18] <htrp> if you downloaded off a website, do you have to install them in /usr/share/fonts so other users can use it too?
[05:19] <htrp> fonts*
[05:19] <neo911> is red hat also debian based? thx
[05:20] <MistaED> red hat is red hat based, :)
[05:20] <Neurosis> Is there any good free news group servers or a free usenet that i can use with Pan?
[05:20] <htrp> redhat != debian
[05:21] <neo911> MistaED, they say ubuntu is debian based right? so red hat is at the same level as debian?
[05:21] <Madpilot> htrp, I think putting it into fonts:/// thru Nautilus gets it system-wide (not actually sure, though, this is a one-user computer...)
[05:21] <jodanlime> neo911, basically
[05:21] <neo911> how do i subscribe to a newsgroup server like comp.lang.c++ from ubuntu? thanks
[05:22] <MistaED> neo911: what do you mean by level? they both have the same gnu packages and linux kernel, just one uses rpm and the other uses deb packages, plus the filesystems are structured slightly differently, and probably the inits are different
[05:22] <greenwom> e
[05:22] <neo911> jodanlime, so what are the different "flavours" of linux? there'd be debian and what others? thx
[05:22] <sweven> So, uh 4 install attemps and 2 CDs later... "Operating System not found"
[05:22] <jodanlime> neo911, there are things built on red hat too, like suse and mandrake, but I seem to like the way debian based systems work much better, there are alot of stuff built on debian other than just ubuntu
[05:22] <IamEthos> how do I change which drives ubuntu mounts on startup?
[05:22] <cerebrix> www.distrowatch.org will show you most linux distros
[05:23] <greenwom> any one have dual monitor
[05:23] <cerebrix> in total, since if i wanted to, i could make my own, so could you.  i imagine theres in excess of 10000 different distros
[05:23] <greenwom> wallpapers
[05:23] <eae> Can anyone help me?
[05:23] <Neurosis> im getting dual monitor put in this week
[05:23] <neo911> jodanlime, right, i think that's what i wanted to know :-)
[05:23] <bimberi> IamEthos: edit /etc/fstab
[05:23] <Toma-> eae: probably....
[05:23] <eae> Ok, then...
[05:23] <greenwom> I love my dual head set up but there's limited wallpaper out there
[05:24] <eae> My wireless doesn't work. It works in Windows.
[05:24] <jodanlime> neo911, a good place to check out is distrowatch.com, you can learn all about different distros or "flavours" and wikipedia is a great place to get lots of information on specific distros, or anything else for that matter
[05:24] <greenwom> good wallpaper
[05:24] <neo911> btw, so anyone know hot to subscribe to a newsgroup from ubuntu, say comp.lang.c++? thx
[05:24] <htrp> is there a 'linux version' of that font named 'English', which is windows font
[05:24] <htrp> ?
[05:24] <sweven> make your own wallpaper :^)
[05:24] <neo911> jodanlime, ok, ive added it to my bookmarks
[05:24] <IamEthos> bimberi: just delete lines that I don't want to mount/
[05:24] <greenwom> <-- bad artist
[05:24] <_jason> neo911: I use pan
[05:24] <Madpilot> htrp, if it's a TTF font, it'll work in Ubuntu
[05:24] <Neurosis> im getting dual monitor put in this week
[05:24] <Neurosis> im getting dual monitor put in this week
[05:24] <jodanlime> can anybody help me set up my scanner with sane
[05:24] <eae> Toma-, you get that?
[05:24] <Neurosis> Is there any good free news group servers or a free usenet that i can use with Pan?
[05:25] <Munchkinguy> How do I add a printer in the console?
[05:25] <neo911> _jason, pan is an app i can install from synaptic?
[05:25] <_jason> neo911: yes
[05:25] <sweven> greenwom, post a request on the message board, I'll bet someone would make something up
[05:25] <htrp> ic
[05:25] <neo911> _jason, cool
[05:25] <kasemodz> i have been this problem on my ubuntu server. Basically, when I'm downlading something the download speed rapidly fluctuates and even in lan when im hardwired it starts at 11mb then goes down to g6 mb gradually and keeps fluctuating. anyone know how to tweak it?
[05:25] <bimberi> IamEthos: comment them out (you never know...) :)
[05:26] <IamEthos> and will that still allow me to mount them manually?
[05:26] <Sashi> hey
[05:26] <sweven> hi
[05:26] <Sashi> i got the AMD64 iso for some reason i cant boot it
[05:26] <Sashi> something about IRQ error
[05:26] <ReWT_AxS> Sashi, are you 64 bit?
[05:26] <Sashi> yes
[05:27] <Sashi> i have Athlon64
[05:27] <ReWT_AxS> did you try the 32 bit one?
[05:27] <greenwom> eae what kind of wireless card do you have>
[05:27] <kasemodz> i didn't use to have this problem before but it just happened. I did disable ipv6 last week but i didn't feel any noticeable difference.
[05:27] <Munchkinguy> Someone please help!
[05:27] <ReWT_AxS> !help
[05:27] <YukiCuss> !helpme
[05:27] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[05:28] <kasemodz> i also had privoxy and tor installed but i uninstalled em, however I didn't uninstall it completely. could that be the problem?
[05:28] <Munchkinguy> ubotuL I did ask a question
[05:28] <YukiCuss> Munchkinguy, ubotu is just a bot.
[05:28] <Neurosis> Is there any good free news group servers or a free usenet that i can use with Pan?
[05:28] <sweven> heheh
[05:28] <Munchkinguy> *ubotu
[05:28] <YukiCuss> Munchkinguy, fact is that many of us are just looking at the channel now, so we don't see your original request.
[05:28] <eae> greenwom, Intel proset or something like that
[05:28] <Munchkinguy> oh
[05:28] <ReWT_AxS> Munchkinguy, ask again. I don't see a question.
[05:29] <jayr168> is running kde apps in gnome not recommended?
[05:29] <sweven> Anyone have any last ditch advice for me to salvage this installation operation?
[05:29] <YukiCuss> jayr168, it's not *not* recommended, it just may look out of place.
[05:29] <Sashi> should i use x86? would it work?
[05:29] <sweven> Maybe try to get the Live CD working and poke around?
[05:29] <ReWT_AxS> sweven...whats the matter?
[05:29] <Munchkinguy> Well, I'm trying to "add" a printer in Xubuntu, but I don't know how (it's easier in GNOME)
[05:29] <tristil> How do I tell metacity to use Nautilus instead of Thunar in Gnome after trying Xubuntu?
[05:29] <ReWT_AxS> Sashi, it should.
[05:29] <eae> greenwom, is that enough or do you need more specifics?
[05:30] <tristil> I don't see the option in gconf.
[05:30] <sweven> I've tried to install 4 times, with 2 different CDs and I always get "Operating System not found"
[05:30] <Sashi> but
[05:30] <Sashi> whats the diff
[05:30] <ReWT_AxS> sweven, you dual booting?
[05:30] <Sashi> between x86 and the x86_amd
[05:30] <YukiCuss> Munchkinguy, perhaps just use gnome-cups-manager
[05:30] <sweven> nope
[05:30] <ReWT_AxS> Are you setting up your partition correctly?
[05:30] <sweven> I wiped the entire 20 GB hard drive
[05:30] <sweven> I used the guided partitioning
[05:31] <jodanlime> has anybody set up a scanner in breezy?
[05:31] <mikes_> can somebody help me,when i strt synaptic t get this error: W: Couldn't stat source package list http://gt.archive.ubuntu.com breezy/'universe Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/gt.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy_'universe_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[05:31] <mikes_> W: Couldn't stat source package list http://gt.archive.ubuntu.com breezy/multiverse' Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists
[05:31] <YukiCuss> jodanlime, from what I've heard, my friend just plugged it in, and pressed `Scan.'
[05:32] <ReWT_AxS> mikes_, it's your repositories.
[05:32] <ReWT_AxS> type sudo apt-get update in terminal
[05:32] <Sashi> is there really a difference between the x86 and the 64bit releases?
[05:32] <ReWT_AxS> See if that helps the error. Close synaptic before you do this.
[05:32] <jodanlime> YukiCuss, yeah, I tried that, it didnt work at all
[05:32] <ReWT_AxS> Sashi, yes.
[05:32] <ReWT_AxS> sweven, have you check forums?
[05:33] <Sashi> and that is?
[05:33] <joseph> hey I have a question
[05:33] <joseph> so
[05:33] <mikes_> but how can i fix the repositoriess
[05:33] <ReWT_AxS> I hear a lot of people were having similar problems as you and there are some tutorials there.
[05:33] <joseph> could I change my sources.list to dapper
[05:33] <joseph> would that work
[05:33] <ReWT_AxS> Sashi, one is 32 biy the other is 64?
[05:33] <ReWT_AxS> *bit
[05:33] <Sashi> lol?
[05:33] <ReWT_AxS> :-P
[05:34] <Sashi> well im redownloading 64bit one again
[05:34] <sweven> ReWT_AxS, yes I searched the forums but I couldn't find anything conclusive
[05:34] <ReWT_AxS> Sashi, don't forget to check the md5sum
[05:34] <bimberi> joseph: you want to upgrade from breezy to dapper?
[05:34] <ReWT_AxS> sweven, let me have a look, hold on.
[05:35] <joseph> bimberi: yea I think so does that sound right
[05:35] <bimberi> !tell joseph about upgrade
[05:35] <sweven> ReWT_AxS, I really appreciate it!  Thanks
[05:35] <ReWT_AxS> sweven, not a problem.
[05:35] <neo911> one thing w ubuntu that i like i havent encountered that i was asked to close an application when im installing or updating modules? how is that possible? or maybe i just haven't encountered installing a pkg that is in use at the time? do i make sense? :-)
[05:35] <YukiCuss> neo911, you won't have to close programs.
[05:36] <jodanlime> !sane
[05:36] <ubotu> What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, jodanlime
[05:36] <eae> Ok, one more time. I have a Intel ProSet Wireless card that works fine in Windows. However, I cannot use in Ubuntu. What could be wrong?
[05:36] <YukiCuss> neo911, binaries are loaded into memory, the actual file isn't locked when you're casually using programs, unlike in Windows.
[05:36] <Madpilot> !tell eae about wireless
[05:37] <eae> Ok thanks
[05:37] <Madpilot> !tell jodanlime about scanner
[05:37] <mikes_> hye i got this problem  whe i do "sudo apt-get update" y get this error
[05:37] <IamEthos> I have a swap partition on an external hard drive
[05:37] <mikes_> W: Couldn't stat source package list http://gt.archive.ubuntu.com breezy/'unive rse Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/gt.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy_'uni verse_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[05:37] <IamEthos> but I don't always have the hard drive with me
[05:37] <Munchkinguy> YukiCuss: Thank you, it worked.
[05:37] <IamEthos> so would it be better to comment it out and swapon after startup
[05:37] <YukiCuss> Munchkinguy, neat.
[05:37] <jodanlime> Madpilot, yeah, I'm reading that now but its not helping any
[05:37] <IamEthos> or leave it in fstab and deal with the errors?
[05:38] <bimberi> mikes_: it looks like you have a typo on your sources.list - does it have >>'unive rse<< instead of just universe somewhere
[05:38] <z6bt> hello what was the command to dist upgrade?
[05:38] <NickGarvey> apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:38] <bimberi> z6bt: sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[05:38] <NickGarvey> aptitude.. is a front end for apt-get?
[05:38] <NickGarvey> to google!
[05:39] <neo911> YukiCuss, can i rephrase to make sure i understand... so windows lock the binaries in primary storage when it loads the app while ubuntu just loads the binary into ram but does not lock the copy in primary storage??
[05:39] <mikes_> thanks ill check
[05:39] <ispiked> does the ubuntu live-cd support lvm/lvm2?
[05:39] <bimberi> to ubotu!
[05:39] <YukiCuss> neo911, correct.
[05:39] <bimberi> !tell NickGarvey about aptitude
[05:39] <NickGarvey> . /msg ubotu aptitude :)
[05:39] <NickGarvey> oh thanks heh
[05:39] <ReWT_AxS> sweven, still here?
[05:39] <av|r3x> hi all
[05:39] <YukiCuss> neo911, Windows also loads it into RAM, but for some reason locks the copy on disk too.
[05:39] <Toma-> is there another way to mount a usbdisk so that it writes all the info when you move it, rather than when you unmount?
[05:39] <sweven> ReWT_AxS, yes
[05:40] <av|r3x> question: will ubuntu 5.10 have problems with my Intel Centrino Wifi onbaord?
[05:40] <makaveli> i need a biatch
[05:40] <ReWT_AxS> sweven, use pastebin to paste sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.list
[05:40] <av|r3x> as in will it conect to hotspots, or do i have to massage it a lot first?
[05:40] <ispiked> Toma-: seems like I remember someone saying there was... maybe part of gnome.
[05:40] <Dr_Willis> wireless can still be a hassle. :(
[05:41] <ispiked> av|r3x: do you mean dapper? 5.10 is breezy badger.
[05:41] <zanth> is anyone aware if xgl will be available with dapper?
[05:41] <av|r3x> ah
[05:41] <Toma-> ispiked: ok
[05:41] <av|r3x> so, ubuntu is no good for laptops?
[05:41] <ispiked> av|r3x: no, it's probably the best distro for laptops.
[05:41] <sweven> ReWT_AxS, should I do that when I get the Live CD running?
[05:41] <useruser> Toma-: wouldn't the disk have to see into the future?
[05:41] <ReWT_AxS> av|r3x, I have ubuntu running fine on my notebook...
[05:41] <neo911> YukiCuss, ahh :-)
[05:41] <bimberi> av|r3x: what model wireless card?
[05:41] <Sashi> hmm
[05:41] <ispiked> lvm(2) support on the live-cd... anyone... anyone?
[05:41] <Sashi> does dual booting only work
[05:42] <Sashi> if you have two partitions?
[05:42] <av|r3x> @ispkided, 5.10. I don't know its nick. its the most current iso i found on teh site
[05:42] <Sashi> it will work if you have two hdds right
[05:42] <av|r3x> just standard wifi onboard
[05:42] <Sashi> ;p
[05:42] <av|r3x> centrino
[05:42] <ispiked> av|r3x: ah, ok. it's called breezy badger fyi.
[05:42] <ReWT_AxS> sweven, do you have anything else on the hard drive?
[05:42] <Dr_Willis> av|r3x,  i find it one of the best distros ive trie for laptops
[05:42] <Toma-> useruser: ...when i say "cp woot to /usbdisk/woot" it should copy then. not when i unmount. how is that the future? :)
[05:42] <bimberi> av|r3x: centrino implies it's probably intel for which the support is very good
[05:42] <useruser> Toma-: oh, i see. i thought you were asking the disk to predict when it was about to be unplugged, and write the data immediately beforehand
[05:42] <ispiked> Toma-: it doesn't copy it then?
[05:42] <av|r3x> i wanted to install debian, but now i thought about trying this one out
[05:42] <sweven> ReWT_AxS No, I wiped the whole thing and now it's just the main partition and the swap
[05:43] <mister_roboto> Dr_Willis: have you gotten suspend and hibernate to work though? i only had luck with Suse on that, outta the box
[05:43] <Dr_Willis> The problem is 'standard' wireless :) lol/ isent standard. sadly
[05:43] <ispiked> Toma-: I could've sworn it does.
[05:43] <av|r3x> thing is, suse does recognize the wifi onboard
[05:43] <Toma-> ispiked: its copying now, that ive passed umount
[05:43] <useruser> ispiked: it usually caches it
[05:43] <av|r3x> i thought that most every distro should do it
[05:43] <useruser> Toma-: you can run sync
[05:43] <ispiked> useruser: I still thought gnome supported "smart" unmounting when a drive was unplugged.
[05:43] <av|r3x> but i though about asking first, before trying
[05:43] <Dr_Willis> mister_roboto,  i disable those features even under XP. Nothing but problems with that stuff.
[05:43] <useruser> ispiked: physically unplugged? i don't see how
[05:43] <av|r3x> tnx 4 the info, ispiked
[05:43] <useruser> ispiked: if the data's cached at all, the os needs warning before unplugging
[05:43] <Dr_Willis> av|r3x,  the ubuntu wiki/forums is the place to look. :p
[05:43] <IcemanV9> anyone, will gparted revive the "dead" hd??
[05:43] <ispiked> useruser: maybe I just misunderstood what someone said.
[05:44] <mister_roboto> Dr_Willis: don't know why you'd do that. it's flawless under XP. I love suspend when moving laptop around. perfect for when you're bopping around meetings at work, for example
[05:44] <ReWT_AxS> sweven, Get on the live, run qtparted and make sure you have the right partition setup.
[05:44] <ispiked> av|r3x: yeah, no problem.
[05:44] <av|r3x> ubuntu wiki? i'll give it a try
[05:44] <ispiked> av|r3x: most wifi cards are supported.
[05:44] <Dr_Willis> mister_roboto,  'flawless' it is not.
[05:44] <av|r3x> oh, and another thing: any nzb dl'ers? mac has hellanzb, i was hoping there is a clone of it somewhere
[05:44] <sweven> ReWT_AxS, Okay, I'll check it out, brb
[05:45] <Dr_Willis> mister_roboto,  my problem is the hooking up of the devices and changing networks, and other doo dads. :P
[05:45] <pulgoki> can anyone tell me why firestarter would tell me i have active connetions yet when i run netstat -aut the connections that are supposedly open and active dont show?
[05:45] <ispiked> av|r3x: what is nzb?
[05:45] <av|r3x> tnk god about the wifi. i usually need to be connected 24/7
[05:45] <av|r3x> ah
[05:45] <av|r3x> nzb is a file protocol
[05:46] <eae> Ok, guys, back to the card thing. I found the following text on it:
[05:46] <eae> Card: [Intel]  PRO/Wireless 2200BG
[05:46] <eae>     * pciid: 8086:4220

[05:46] <mister_roboto> Dr_Willis: A quick ifdown eth0 && ifup eth0 usually fixes that  no problem :)
[05:46] <YukiCuss> !tell eae about patebin
[05:46] <YukiCuss> !tell eae about pastebin
[05:46] <eae> Sry
[05:46] <ispiked> eae: please pastebin that stuff in the future.
[05:46] <av|r3x> that's the card i got
[05:46] <Dr_Willis> mister_roboto,   I dont have a problem with Linux and it.. its windows xp thats a pain
[05:46] <Dr_Willis> :P
[05:46] <ispiked> av|r3x: eh?
[05:46] <ispiked> av|r3x: are ou eae?
[05:46] <eae> Hm?
[05:46] <av|r3x> a file protocol
[05:46] <ispiked> s/ou/you/
[05:46] <sweven> Wow!  The Live CD is actually working this time...  maybe the first one was a dud
[05:46] <av|r3x> similar to torrent
[05:47] <ispiked> hrm...
[05:47] <av|r3x> nope
[05:47] <av|r3x> not eae
[05:47] <eae> I have no idea what's going on.
[05:47] <av|r3x> but i got the same card
[05:47] <eae> And it works?
[05:47] <nubi> hello
[05:47] <av|r3x> that's the question i had to begin with
[05:47] <av|r3x> have no clue
[05:47] <eae> Try it?
[05:47] <av|r3x> i'll try it ou
[05:47] <eae> :)
[05:48] <av|r3x> yea
[05:48] <eae> :(
[05:48] <ispiked> av|r3x: ok, I have that same wifi card as well, and it works right out of the box.
[05:48] <nubi> hi how to start apache in ubuntu?
[05:48] <eae> Mine doesn't.

[05:48] <ispiked> !tell pescuesito about spanish
[05:49] <nubi> ispiked : yes...
[05:49] <pescuesito> hello
[05:49] <pescuesito> im not inglish
[05:49] <nubi> my friend has install cactii for me
[05:49] <av|r3x> a question: any app in debian repos
[05:49] <pescuesito> im mexican
[05:49] <IcemanV9> pescuesito: #ubuntu-es
[05:49] <av|r3x> may be installed on ubuntu?
[05:49] <nubi> but when i restart my ubuntu
[05:49] <ispiked> nubi: try /etc/init.d/apache start.
[05:49] <eae> ispiked and av|r3x, mine doesn't work out the box. Now what?
[05:49] <ispiked> eae: odd...
[05:49] <nubi> thx
[05:50] <eae> ispiked, did you need to config it or something?
[05:50] <av|r3x> i'll install it, then call back
[05:50] <eae> Do anything?
[05:50] <ispiked> eae: so `iwconfig -a' doesn't show any supported wireless interfaces?
[05:50] <av|r3x> i haven't installed ubuntu yet
[05:50] <eae> Hold on
[05:50] <ispiked> eae: also, does `dmesg |grep ipw' show anything?
[05:50] <eae> Ok, hold on
[05:51] <mockme> hi guys
[05:51] <mockme> is there a flash for linux?
[05:51] <Dr_Willis> !flash
[05:51] <ubotu> Installation & troubleshooting for Flash is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[05:51] <ReWT_AxS> mockme, yes.
[05:51] <eae> ispiked, first one says "No such device", second does nothing.
[05:51] <av|r3x> debian apps do install and ru properly on ubuntu?
[05:51] <mockme> ReWT_AxS, what is that>
[05:52] <useruser> av|r3x: not necessarily
[05:52] <Dr_Willis> av|r3x,  best to use the ubuntu repos. not debian packages.
[05:52] <ReWT_AxS> !tell mockme about flash
[05:52] <av|r3x> k tnx
[05:52] <eae> ispiked, are you sure -a is a valid flag?
[05:52] <ispiked> eae: yes, it just tells it to show all the interfaces.
[05:52] <ispiked> eae: I think.
[05:52] <mockme> ReWT_AxS, i mean the development package
[05:52] <ispiked> eae: try just plain `iwconfig'.
[05:53] <eae> That gives instructions.
[05:53] <eae> No sorry.
[05:53] <eae> Just kidding.
[05:53] <eae> !pastebin
[05:53] <ubotu> pastebin is probably a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar ,
[05:53] <knight> hi
[05:54] <knight> I am having problems with video display
[05:54] <ispiked> eae: I honestly don't know why that card wouldn't work out of the box.
[05:54] <ispiked> eae: I guess the only difference between mine and yours is that mine is ipw2000 ABG.
[05:54] <eae> ispiked, here's what I get: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10705
[05:55] <ispiked> eae: aha. you're in better shape than you thought you were.
[05:55] <knight> I have a laptop averatec 1000
[05:55] <eae> ispiked :)
[05:55] <IamEthos> whenever I run disks manager, I get an error saying "Could not find /tmp/disks-conf-sda1."
[05:55] <IamEthos> why?
[05:55] <knight> display  resolution is low
[05:55] <ispiked> eae: try doing `sudo ifup eth1'.
[05:56] <ispiked> IamEthos: tried googling that error?
[05:56] <IamEthos> nope
[05:56] <IamEthos> I'll check it out
[05:56] <ispiked> IamEthos: don't include the sda1 part, because that's probably specific to your system.
[05:56] <knight> My display resolution is low
[05:57] <knight> I need resolution to be higher I have a averatec 1000
[05:57] <ispiked> knight: are their larger ones available in the gnome settings for resolution?
[05:57] <knight> no
[05:57] <knight> jusy
[05:57] <hayden> whats a program that i can rip an mp3 from a mpg video file?
[05:57] <fr500> hello
[05:57] <eae> ispiked, "ifup: interface eth1 already configured" I tried configuring it earlier without having any idea what I was doing
[05:57] <ispiked> knight: ok... you might need to add something to your xorg.conf to fix that.
[05:57] <knight> ok
[05:58] <knight> what should I add
[05:58] <ispiked> eae: try doing `sudo dhclient eth1'.
[05:58] <IamEthos> ispiked: three responses, 1 in french and 2 irrelevant
[05:58] <fr500> hi
[05:58] <fr500> can u read me?
[05:58] <ispiked> knight: not sure exactly.
[05:58] <knight> lol
[05:58] <knight> wow
[05:58] <IamEthos> I get that error whenever the hard drive isn't mounted or isn't connected
[05:59] <eae> ispiked, what am I supposed to be seeing?
[05:59] <IamEthos> for some reason it only complains about sda1
[05:59] <IamEthos> not the others
[05:59] <ispiked> eae: should see some stuff printed out about it trying to get an ip addresss.
[05:59] <knight> anybody can help me fix resolution for averatec 1000
[05:59] <ispiked> knight: back up xorg.conf before you do anything.
[06:00] <knight> ok
[06:00] <dcgarri> just installed ubuntu.. still sort of new with linux... just need to know how to "execute" a .run file
[06:00] <ispiked> knight: then look where the other resolutions are mentioned, and try adding a similar section for your desired resolution.
[06:00] <knight> ok
[06:00] <knight> thanks
[06:00] <ispiked> dcgarri: where did this .run file come from?
[06:00] <eae> ispiked, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10707
[06:01] <knight> sh ./ and the file name
[06:01] <knight> I think
[06:01] <dcgarri> It's an ATI installation utility
[06:01] <dcgarri> ok, i try
[06:01] <Dr_Willis> !ati
[06:01] <ubotu> hmm... ati is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI or http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24557&page=1&pp=10 or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=423589
[06:02] <ispiked> eae: ok. so you're sure there's a router close by that's willing to give you an IP?
[06:02] <joseph> is gnome 2.14 in dapper?
[06:02] <ispiked> joseph: yeah.
[06:02] <ispiked> eae: how is your router set up?
[06:02] <ispiked> eae: if you even know.
[06:02] <eae> ispiked, ehm... It's the university's.
[06:03] <ispiked> eae: do they use any type of password/key for their wireless?
[06:03] <Toba> argh, why is php5 not in the breezy repositories?
[06:03] <IamEthos> is it possible to change the owner of a vfat partition?
[06:03] <eae> ispiked, usually when you have wireless on, no mattter what site you try to access, it'll forward you to the login site
[06:03] <IamEthos> or at least give read/write access to another user
[06:03] <ispiked> IamEthos: when you mount it you can specify that stuff.
[06:03] <Hobbsee> eae: what's the essid for the uni?  is it shown in iwconfig?
[06:04] <Hobbsee> eae: if not, specify it manually, then do a dhclient again.  that's waht i have to do for my uni
[06:04] <ispiked> eae: ok, but that shouldn't prevent you from actually connecting, afaik.
[06:04] <eae> Hobbsee, "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10707"
[06:04] <eae> sry
[06:04] <eae> no
[06:04] <jodanlime> anybody know how to get an actec_eplus48u scanner to work in ubuntu, or in debian, because on the wiki it says that nobody has been able to do it in breezy yet
[06:04] <IcemanV9> Toba: yes, it's there - 5.0.5-2ubuntu1 (breezy)
[06:04] <jodanlime> artec*
[06:04] <eae> Hobbsee, "eth1      unassociated  ESSID:off/any"
[06:04] <ispiked> eae: yeah, Hobbsee has some good advice.
[06:04] <Toba> IcemanV9: awesome!
[06:04] <ispiked> eae: do you know the essid of the school's network?
[06:05] <eae> ispiked, no sir.
[06:05] <ispiked> eae: do `iwlist eth1 scan' and see what that outputs.
[06:05] <Hobbsee> eae: yes, i saw.  use iwlist eth1 scan
[06:05] <Hobbsee> hehe
[06:05] <joseph> anyone here use epiphany as their main browser
[06:05] <ispiked> joseph: what's your question. usually surveys don't yield help.
[06:06] <joseph> don't need help
[06:06] <joseph> just wonderin
[06:06] <IamEthos> can I specify that in the fstab file?
[06:06] <eae> ispiked, Hobbsee : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10708
[06:07] <ispiked> eae: hrm...
[06:07] <Hobbsee> eae: which uni do you go to?  do they have a link to their wireless stuff on one of their pages?
[06:07] <Dr_Willis> !mount
[06:07] <ubotu> from memory, mount is the command to add partitions to your filesystem - for full instructions see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingANewHardDrive For mounting windows partitions, see !windowsdrives or http://tinyurl.com/bly9f
[06:08] <eae> Hobbsee, University of Miami. Could the problem be that it's set on ad hoc?
[06:08] <Aaronfromchina> no idea.
[06:08] <Hobbsee> eae: do you have the webpage for that?  it's likely to be on there
[06:08] <holobyted> how do I config gnome to open all dialog boxes in the center of the screen?
[06:09] <eae> Hobbsee, the webpage for wireless log-in?
[06:09] <Hobbsee> eae: if you cant figure it out, i'd leach off WirelessCanes - as it has no encryption, and is one of the fast ones
[06:09] <Hobbsee> eae: yeah, or just wireless info in general
[06:09] <eae> Hobbsee, wireless canes is the wireless here
[06:09] <eae> Hobbsee, Miami isn't big on Internet security
[06:10] <Hobbsee> eae: so that's the one you want to connect to?  do a "sudo iwconfig eth1 essid WirelessCanes"
[06:10] <Hobbsee> then try iwconfig, check that it's now showing, if not, repeat step 1, and then run a dhclient
[06:10] <Hobbsee> then, hopefully, you'll be connected
[06:10] <Hobbsee> then again, our uni network is open too - but there is a webpage to sign into if you want to view http stuff...
[06:11] <ispiked> Hobbsee: is an ad hoc network a legitimate wifi network?
[06:11] <Hobbsee> ispiked: not sure on that one - i think it relies on computer to computer connections, rather than to an AP
[06:11] <Hobbsee> if it works though, go for it :P
[06:11] <ispiked> Hobbsee: yeah.
[06:11] <eae> Hobbsee, I think the other one is faster
[06:11] <coz> can anyone tell me about vnc
[06:12] <Hobbsee> some of my uni stuff is ad-hoc, some is managed.  depends which AP i connect to
[06:12] <Hobbsee> !tell coz about vnc
[06:12] <ispiked> Hobbsee: afaik, you can't connect to ad hoc wifi networks.
[06:13] <ispiked> coz: what do you want to know about it?
[06:13] <ispiked> eae: so did you do what Hobbsee told you about setting the essid and running dhclient again?
[06:13] <coz> ispiked, I have this applications named vnc2swf which does flash movies of desktop
[06:13] <Hobbsee> ispiked: you may well not be able to - kwifimanager refers to ad hoc networks, but i've never been terribly sucessful with that program
[06:13] <coz> it uses the vnc server to do this but I hav enever used either
[06:14] <ispiked> coz: read the documentation on them... I'm sure it tells you how.
[06:14] <IamEthos> so the default is suid
[06:14] <Eleaf> Man, I'm getting pretty bad freezups in Ubuntu on my server
[06:14] <IamEthos> I don't want that
[06:14] <Eleaf> I think it's only in X, but it has gotten substantially worse
[06:14] <ispiked> Eleaf: might be a bad driver.
[06:14] <Eleaf> Liek freezes within 2 seconds..
[06:14] <coz> ispiked, good idea but I have tried that  but thanks
[06:14] <regeya_> vnc2swf is awesome.  yes, you need a vnc server.
[06:14] <Eleaf> ispiked: really?
[06:15] <Eleaf> Wouldn't think that would be a problem in linux, hmm.
[06:15] <ispiked> Eleaf: my only experience with freezing was when using a bad ndiswrapper driver.
[06:15] <Eleaf> humm
[06:15] <Eleaf> I see.
[06:15] <ispiked> eae: still around?
[06:16] <regeya_> my only ubuntu experience with freezing had to do with powernowd
[06:16] <Eleaf> Will somebody try ethanlofton.no-ip.org and make sure my server is still hosting?
[06:17] <ispiked> Eleaf: wfm.
[06:17] <Eleaf> ?
[06:17] <Eleaf> wfm?
[06:17] <ispiked> Eleaf: works for me.
[06:17] <Eleaf> oh ok
[06:17] <Eleaf> you get the page?
[06:17] <ispiked> Eleaf: haha. the live screenshot thing is great.
[06:17] <Eleaf> hehe
[06:17] <Eleaf> ispiked: It isn't running right now though
[06:18] <Eleaf> ispiked: I don't have X running currently.
[06:18] <Puffball> When running a configuration script, I keep getting "configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check" even after reinstalling cpp, and nothing seems to work.
[06:18] <Eleaf> made a little python script.
[06:18] <ispiked> Eleaf: I don't even have x installed on my server.
[06:18] <Eleaf> yea
[06:18] <eae> Hobbsee, ispiked : "eth1      IEEE 802.11b  ESSID:"WirelessCanes""
[06:18] <eae> Good?
[06:18] <Eleaf> ispiked: I do use this server for generally browsing and working on some stuff though (programming, etc.)
[06:19] <ispiked> Eleaf: yeah.
[06:19] <Eleaf> ispiked: I wouldn't have X installed normally on this server, but it's multi-purpose.
[06:19] <eae> Ok, something went definately wrong.
[06:19] <ispiked> eae: ok. now do `sudo dhclient eth1'.
[06:19] <mikes_> i need help please, i think i ruin my sorce.list , how can i fixed
[06:19] <Eleaf> anyways, I'm installing upgrading to dapper, who knows, it might fix the freezups ispiked .
[06:19] <ispiked> Eleaf: yep.
[06:20] <Eleaf> I also think it might be due to the processor overheating, haven't had this problem yet not running X though, so who knows
[06:20] <sweven> Thanks for your help everyone, I'm going to start fresh tomorrow and get to the bottom of this!
[06:21] <Hobbsee> !tell mikes_ about repos
[06:22] <z6bt> hello what is the package to make an nfs servger
[06:22] <z6bt> i tried to apt-cache but all i get is webmin
[06:22] <z6bt> and i know thats not it
[06:22] <ispiked> z6bt: there might not be one.
[06:22] <eae> ispiked, I think it worked. How to check?
[06:22] <eae> ispiked, deactive land line?
[06:22] <danf_1979> anyone has a howto for installing apache mod_security?
[06:22] <ispiked> eae: well...
[06:23] <eae> ispiked, did you say something?
[06:23] <ispiked> eae: what's ifconfig look like?
[06:23] <ispiked> eae: no, just "well...".
[06:23] <fr500> does anyone here use an ipsec vpn?
[06:23] <z6bt> anyone here set up an nfs server?
[06:23] <jmorris1> hmm
[06:24] <Eleaf> ispiked: I wonder how I should get some of these processes down.  I'm currently running 75 processes with no X.   (come on, I should get it to be like 10 ;))
[06:24] <Eleaf> =p
[06:24] <ispiked> Eleaf: yeah, that does sound like a lot. :\
[06:24] <ispiked> danf_1979: the people in #apache might be of some help.
[06:24] <jmorris1> after using ubuntu for awhile now and having upgraded to dapper, this is the best linux to date :)
[06:25] <IcemanV9> Eleaf: wanna know the temp of CPU? type "acpi -V"
[06:25] <zF> Hi
[06:25] <jmorris1> fully usable, much faster than previous ones
[06:25] <jmorris1> on par with windows :)
[06:25] <zF> What's the terminal command to change a Hidden NTFS partition to a NTFS partition
[06:25] <jmorris1> heh
[06:25] <zF> fstab?
[06:25] <eae> ispiked, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10709 and my Internet connection is really unstable atm
[06:25] <Eleaf> IcemanV9: well, I usually use the lm-sensors module and 'sensors' to find the temp.
[06:26] <Eleaf> IcemanV9: this is an old AMD Duron and the temps sometimes get very, very high...
[06:26] <Eleaf> IcemanV9: like 36 C now.  Can get to upper 90's! lol
[06:27] <danf_1979> Ok ispiked, thanks...
[06:27] <ispiked> eae: looks good. you should be able to take down the LAN and be able to use wifi.
[06:27] <IcemanV9> Eleaf: ah. ok. mine shut down when it hits 72 C.
[06:27] <z6bt> 4/wc
[06:27] <berto-> hi everyone.  i am having trouble with my ubuntu box.  i started off using dhcp and then i changed it to a static IP.  in the dns information i set my nameservers, but daily, they keep getting wiped out.  any idea where i can permanently set them?
[06:27] <eae> ispiked, here goes nothing :)
[06:27] <Eleaf> IcemanV9: yea, this old thing gets pretty hot.
[06:28] <ubuntu> o.O
[06:28] <Eleaf> ispiked: dapper 8% ;)
[06:28] <Eleaf> ispiked: on my 256k up/down line yay.. lol
[06:28] <ispiked> Eleaf: ouch.
[06:29] <Eleaf> ispiked: I also have a 1.5 mbit down / 800 Kbps up line.
[06:29] <Eleaf> ispiked: I still insist on using this line for my server ;)
[06:29] <Eleaf> does quite well actually.
[06:29] <bingogu> so quick  are u using the cd-rom as your resources
[06:30] <Eleaf> Alright
[06:30] <Eleaf> Goodnight!
[06:30] <bingogu> Now is morning :p
[06:31] <ispiked> ah, should've told eae that he will need to reconnect.
[06:32] <zF> hi
[06:32] <zF> what is the terminal command to edit the /etc/fstab
[06:32] <ispiked> hi, zF.
[06:32] <ispiked> zF: what would you like to use to edit it?
[06:32] <zF> I need to change a Hidden NTFS to a NTFS partition type so that Windows will boot.
[06:32] <zF> Anything.
[06:32] <ispiked> zF: `sudo gedit /etc/fstab' should work.
[06:33] <ispiked> zF: or, if you want a command-line editor you could do `sudo nano /etc/fstab'.
[06:34] <ispiked> zF: oh, hold up. I don't think that can be done in fstab.
[06:34] <zF> last time I used a terminal tool
[06:34] <highvoltage> and if you don't, you can press ALT+F@, then type gksudo "gedit /etc/fstab"
[06:34] <zF> to edit the partition type
[06:34] <bingogu> my firefox can't open a button which attrib is <javascript:window.location('movie_list.asp?listType=%E5%8A%A8%E7%94%BB%E7%89%87')>
[06:34] <ispiked> zF: what makes you think you need to change the filesystem time?
[06:34] <highvoltage> (alt+F2, that is)
[06:34] <zF> ispiked: i've encounted this bug before
[06:34] <ispiked> bingogu: "can't open"?
[06:34] <zF> with dual booting
[06:35] <mockme> anyone here knows f4l?
[06:35] <ispiked> zF: seems like you'd need to use a partitioning program to change that.
[06:35] <vinux> Any ideas how to fix totem-xine's plugin in mozilla to stop freezing? It starts with no sound and just stops
[06:35] <zF> ispiked: Yes, I've used a terminal one to before.
[06:35] <ispiked> zF: /etc/fstab only tells linux what to do with partitions.
[06:35] <jayr168> how do I change mouse wheel sensitivity in gnome?
[06:35] <jayr168> how do I change mouse wheel sensitivity in gnome?
[06:35] <ispiked> zF: cfdisk maybe?
[06:35] <ispiked> jayr168: it's under system > prefs. > mouse.
[06:36] <jayr168> its not there, I mean the mouse scrol wheel sensitivity
[06:36] <ispiked> jayr168: oh... hrm...
[06:36] <ispiked> vinux: the one that I've had the most luck with is mplayerplug-in.
[06:37] <ispiked> vinux: embedded video on linux sucks for the most part, though. :(
[06:37] <vinux> ispiked, yea mplayer is trusty but I just thought I try out the totem plugin
[06:37] <zF> ispiked: Yes, it's cfdisk
[06:37] <zF> Just found it in google.
[06:38] <zF> Thanks.
[06:38] <ispiked> zF: cool. I can usually never remember the name of it either.
[06:38] <jsmidt> I am trying to configure mutt.  How do I configure it to take mail from gmail's pop server pop.gmail.com?
[06:38] <ispiked> zF: just remember that it's in curses. so if you google curses paritioning it usually comes up.
[06:38] <jsmidt> do I make a change in .muttrc to get mail off a pop server?
[06:39] <ispiked> basanta: please describe your problem in more detail.
[06:39] <mockme> anyone here can help me installing f4l or flash for linux
[06:39] <ispiked> mockme: using firefox?
[06:40] <ardchoille> mockme: you mean flash in firefox?
[06:40] <bingogu> yes

[06:40] <nanang> i can't use gmake to install postgre in my ubuntu
[06:40] <bingogu> no idont mean flash

[06:41] <nanang> i use Synaptic to search from repository but i cannot find it
[06:41] <nanang> can anyone here help me?
[06:41] <ispiked> bingogu: what do you mean you "can't open" a link like that?
[06:41] <ispiked> nanang: you're looking for what?

[06:43] <coz> jbritz22, sorry it ws right there I had no control
[06:43] <ispiked> bingogu: ok. it's probably something that's wrong with the site, not firefox.
[06:43] <nanang> ispiked : gmake
[06:43] <coz> dman-, what scsi card are you using???
[06:43] <ispiked> bingogu: does anything related to that link show up in tools > javascript console?

[06:44] <ispiked> nanang: dunno... I always use `make'.
[06:44] <dman-> but the drives connected to it dont show up
[06:44] <coz> dman-, mm I use adaptec i ak not sure let me check
[06:44] <dman-> i think its an issue with 'megaraid' driver
[06:44] <jbritz22> so why didnt my cdrom automount?
[06:44] <ispiked> rob138: it should pick up the windows drive...
[06:44] <ispiked> rob138: trying running update-grub.
[06:44] <ajoshi> what happens when u type mount /media/cdrom
[06:44] <bingogu> ispiked yes wrong msg was shown in the javaconsole
[06:45] <ispiked> bingogu: ok, then you know it's the site's problem and not firefox's.
[06:45] <ispiked> bingogu: you can e-mail the site about it if you want to. I doubt that'll do anything, though.
[06:45] <rob138> ispiked, it only finds the ubuntu installation i am on
[06:45] <ispiked> rob138: hrm...
[06:45] <coz> dman-, is this on a mac??

[06:45] <jbritz22> lol
[06:46] <dman-> coz ill boot and get some dmesg info
[06:46] <coz> dman-, i am finding most of the problems to be associated with macs
[06:46] <bingogu> ispiked is it? but it's work under IE
[06:46] <ispiked> bingogu: the site is probably using some ie-specific javascript.
[06:47] <bingogu> ispiked the site's for MS only,OK, i.c.
[06:47] <bingogu> ispiked thks for your kind help
[06:48] <rob138> if windows isn't on the primary harddrive can it still boot? i have ubuntu set as primary at IDE and windows is secondary on SATA and i dont know how to configure grub to boot into windows? can anyone help
[06:51] <dman> coz it loads a symbios driver for scsi
[06:52] <coz> dman, hold on i will check
[06:52] <ispiked> bingogu: you're welcome.
[06:52] <ispiked> rob138: the people in #grub might be of some help. I honestly don't know how to do it manually.
[06:53] <rob138> ispiked, no one seems to like to talk in #grub
[06:53] <coz> dman,  try this i will keep looking http://episteme.arstechnica.com/groupee/forums/a/tpc/f/96509133/m/934004087731
[06:54] <ispiked> rob138: searched on the ubuntu forums any?
[06:54] <rob138> ispiked, tried but cant seem to find the right keywords
[06:55] <ispiked> rob138: maybe "grub windows"?
[06:56] <wenko> ahahahahaha
[06:56] <coz> dman,  that is the extent of what I could find however if you want to check again , google, ubuntu install hang then the scsi driver name
[06:56] <ispiked> rob138: I'm off to bed. good luck.
[06:56] <rob138> ispiked thanks

[07:02] <mockme> hi
[07:02] <mockme> anyone knows how to fix these error
[07:02] <mockme> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[07:02] <mockme>   f4lm: Depends: libqt3c102-mt (>= 3:3.2.3-3) but it is not installable
[07:02] <mockme> E: Broken packages
[07:05] <berto-> can someone point me to a howto on making source .deb packages?
[07:07] <schmirgo> hi, i want to start a script after gdm started up but before i logged in. where do i have to place the command for the script?
[07:07] <tonyyarusso> mockme: The default response is try apt-get -f install and see what it thinks it can do to fix it for you.  If that's got nothing, then neither do I.  Good luck.
[07:07] <nalioth> mockme: please don't paste in here, use a pastebin instead (read the /topic)
[07:08] <nalioth> berto-: visit debian.org and look at "the new maintainers guide"
[07:08] <mockme> k tenks
[07:08] <mockme> sowee
[07:08] <berto-> nalioth: i think i've already been there.  it simply talks about making a .deb for a single binary.  or i may be thinking of another howto.
[07:09] <omega21> hi there, im having an issue with launchpad/shipit..
[07:09] <nalioth> berto-: there is no such thing as a "source deb"

[07:31] <Auckland_Pig> how can i start a program in minimized mode? i want to start VLC minimized....
[07:32] <nalioth_zZz> Auckland_Pig: open a console and type "vlc --help"
[07:33] <Nameeater> how can I attempt to recover an accidentally deleted folder?
[07:33] <Auckland_Pig> nalioth_zZz: it doesnt say how to minimize...
[07:34] <nalioth_zZz> Auckland_Pig: it doesnt have a "start minimized " option?
[07:34] <kangpeh> Auckland_Pig:  Unfortunately, it is possible that the software does not offer a 'start minimized' option.
[07:34] <kangpeh> Auckland_Pig:  For your best bet, you may want to refer to the VLC Media Player documentation.
[07:34] <Auckland_Pig> nalioth_zZz: no it doesnt :(
[07:35] <Auckland_Pig> kangpeh: ok...
[07:35] <kangpeh> Auckland_Pig:  Make sure you let us know if you find out any new information related to this topic.
[07:35] <kangpeh> Auckland_Pig:  The sharing of information is what drives Open Source!
[07:35] <Auckland_Pig> oh sure.... kangpeh
[07:35] <kangpeh> =)
[07:35] <Auckland_Pig> but whom should i tell?
[07:36] <kangpeh> Auckland_Pig:  You could even make a nice little HOW-TO:  "HOWTO:  Start VLC Media Player Minimized:
[07:36] <kangpeh> ;)
[07:36] <Auckland_Pig> kangpeh: lol...
[07:40] <Kovecses> dead in here
[07:42] <earthen> what do I need to install to un-rar rar files
[07:42] <protocol1> yeah it is quite slow compared to the times ive seen it
[07:42] <kangpeh> sudo apt-get install rar
[07:42] <Fujitsu> unrar-nonfree
[07:42] <kangpeh> unrar-nonfree
[07:42] <kangpeh> sorry ;)
[07:43] <earthen> so apt-get unrar-nonfree
[07:43] <kangpeh> sudo apt-get install unrar-nonfree
[07:43] <kangpeh> if thta is the package name lol
[07:43] <Auckland_Pig> when i click "System -> Preferences -> multimedia system selector" i get an error "Cannot launch entry: failed to execute child process gstreamer-properties: no such file exists"
[07:43] <VR_> i just do sudo apt-get install rar
[07:43] <VR_> and it works
[07:44] <kangpeh> VR_: Me too
[07:44] <kangpeh> :D
[07:44] <VR_> =)
[07:44] <Auckland_Pig> how about using 7z for unraring?
[07:44] <defrysk> in dapper its just rar yes
[07:44] <earthen> well it worked so
[07:44] <defrysk> in breezy its unrar-nonfree
[07:45] <defrysk> in dapper its unrar even
[07:46] <earthen> anyone running draper 64 bit
[07:47] <earthen> I'm running brezzy 64 running good was just wondering if upgrading to drapper is stable yet or at least farly stable
[07:48] <Auckland_Pig> i get soooo many errors with sound.... saying child process cannot execute... no such file exists
[07:48] <Auckland_Pig> but i can play music...
[07:48] <Auckland_Pig> just cant start volume manager or audacity and some programs
[07:49] <earthen> what sound Daemon you using
[07:49] <Auckland_Pig> earthen: i think its esd
[07:50] <UH^MERLIN> ne programers in here?
[07:50] <Mabus06> how come my system is so laggy? I have a 2.8ghz processor and 1gb of ram, and no processes in the system log are using much of it at all. But gedit shortcut doesn't work, only gedit from terminal. Totem plays horribly out of sync, and lags like 30 seconds between items on the playlist. Rhythmbox is just as bad. Can anybody please give me some ideas?
[07:50] <earthen> Auckland_Pig, ok same as me
[07:50] <Mabus06> UH^MERLIN: what is your question exactly?
[07:51] <UH^MERLIN> I have a few app's i coded for windows coded in VB and C++ , im wondering how i would go about porting them to linux as im new to the *NIX enviroment
[07:51] <earthen> Auckland_Pig,  mine is working fine but i had problems like that first when it was under ALSA
[07:51] <Auckland_Pig> earthen: no its not esd... i cant find esd in my system monitor
[07:51] <wenko> merlin just forget getting vb in *nix
[07:51] <Mabus06> UH^MERLIN: C++ generally works across platforms, depending on what the code is you should be able to compile the source on linux and run it like that.
[07:51] <wenko> err nux
[07:51] <Fujitsu> UH^MERLIN, VB has not a chance.
[07:52] <Mabus06> UH^MERLIN: as for VB, I am pretty sure that's just windows
[07:52] <earthen> check in the Multimedia systems selector
[07:52] <Auckland_Pig>  earthen : i kept changing all kinds of things... its not esd anymore.... how do i find out what i'm using
[07:52] <Fujitsu> UH^MERLIN, is C++ using MFC or Windows API calls?
[07:52] <Mabus06> UH^MERLIN: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[07:52] <Auckland_Pig> earthen: i cant even start it. :( it says failed to launch entry
[07:52] <UH^MERLIN> VB can be ported, my friend moorer from www.moorer-software.com has ported all his VB app's to linux but he is offline
[07:52] <earthen> Auckland_Pig,   go to System / preferances/
[07:52] <Auckland_Pig> earthen:  i did.... it gives some error message
[07:53] <Mabus06> UH^MERLIN: I think you misinterpreted him personally.... but if you say so.
[07:53] <UH^MERLIN> guess ill wait till he comes back online =D
[07:53] <YukiCuss> UH^MERLIN, I am convinced you are wrong.
[07:53] <earthen> Auckland_Pig, ok mmm I don't know how to fix that then, I'm really still a bit of a noob at this all
[07:53] <Mabus06> Basic (and VB) are windows languages.
[07:53] <Fujitsu> UH^MERLIN, VB would have to be completely rewritten. It is not portable at this time, and writing software to port it is very non-trivial.
[07:53] <kingspwned> depends if ported means rewrote
[07:53] <Auckland_Pig> earthen: thanks for trying to help me
[07:54] <Fujitsu> Porting it would involve rewriting.
[07:54] <earthen> Auckland_Pig,  no problem people in here helped me with my sound so I try and pass on what i have learned
[07:54] <Auckland_Pig> earthen: oh thanks...
[07:54] <altos> how can i add acpi=off option into grub loader?
[07:54] <Auckland_Pig> earthen: the strange thing is... i can play music... dvd's... blah blah blah...
[07:54] <Auckland_Pig> lol
[07:55] <Mabus06> altos: type it and press enter when at the boot prompt
[07:55] <YukiCuss> altos, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[07:55] <Frogzoo> altos: -> kopt
[07:55] <UH^MERLIN> i code alot of various crackers, example: SSH crackers etc.. i would like to port them and run them on my *NIX box
[07:55] <earthen> Auckland_Pig,  yeah I could to but it was really bad and laggy when i was using ALSA
[07:55] <Auckland_Pig> ok
[07:55] <altos> after editing menu.list do i have to run grub> root(hd0); setup(hd0) ??
[07:56] <kingspwned> altos; shouldnt be necessary to do anything, afaik
[07:56] <Frogzoo> altos: update-grub
[07:56] <altos> thanks all
[07:56] <Fujitsu> You don't need to
[07:56] <earthen> Auckland_Pig, I know there is a command line command to change it but I don't remember
[07:56] <Auckland_Pig> earthen: ok...
[07:57] <Mabus06> UH^MERLIN: check /msgs
[07:58] <UH^MERLIN> i just typed that command in
[07:58] <UH^MERLIN> says no such command
[07:58] <UH^MERLIN> on on the GAIM irc client
[07:58] <UH^MERLIN> im*
[07:58] <Mabus06> um
[07:58] <Mabus06> I /msg 'ed you
[07:58] <Mabus06> /msgs isn't a command
[07:59] <Mabus06> Oh, nm. You're not registered.
[07:59] <UH^MERLIN> i messaged u
[07:59] <Mabus06> /msg nickserv register password
[07:59] <earthen> Auckland_Pig,  try man esd in command line you mite find something
[07:59] <kangpeh> UH^MERLIN:  If you are able to write software that is able to crack, for instance, SSH and so forth, I feel you would be able to port said software without asking an IRC channel such as this one for help.
[07:59] <Mabus06> I can't read your messages because your nickname isn't registered, UH^MERLIN
[08:00] <Frogzoo> kangpeh: +1
[08:00] <Auckland_Pig> earthen: yes... must do that
[08:00] <UH^MERLIN> nick is reg'ed now
[08:00] <YukiCuss> UH^MERLIN, your discussion is getting a bit off topic.
[08:01] <earthen> Auckland_Pig,  good luck
[08:01] <Mabus06> Hence my suggestion for a /query
[08:01] <Auckland_Pig> earthen: thanks earthen
[08:01] <UH^MERLIN> brb
[08:01] <earthen> Auckland_Pig,  I'm heading to bed good night 3 am here
[08:01] <Fujitsu> kangpeh, +infinity
[08:01] <Auckland_Pig> earthen: g.nite
[08:02] <Auckland_Pig> or g.morning....
[08:02] <kingspwned> kangpeh, good point (to UH^MERLIN)

[08:05] <kangpeh> linuxboyfriend, to be honest, I wouldn't be able to give you a step by step method to convert a .PDF file to a .DOC file (if you are referring to the file formats).
[08:06] <ChankLappy> howdy ive got a question about vnc remote desktop
[08:06] <YukiCuss> !helpme
[08:06] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[08:06] <kangpeh> linuxboyfriend, however, if you are searching for software that can complete such a process for you, you maybe in luck by searching on your favorite search engine for "PDF to DOC Convertor, linux".
[08:06] <sfar-ubu> linuxboyfriend: googled?
[08:07] <linuxboyfriend> kangpeh, sfar-ubu: yes i am googling but most of the results are for windows
[08:07] <kangpeh> linuxboyfriend: I see.
[08:08] <firebird619> Is there a program for Ubuntu for creating slideshows and has the ability to add transition effects, audio, etc.
[08:08] <YukiCuss> firebird619, of course. OpenOffice.org Impress
[08:08] <kangpeh> firebird619:  You may be in luck with the OpenOffice Suite!
[08:08] <kangpeh> firebird619:  OpenOffice is said to be comparable to <and> better than other Office applications in many ways.
[08:09] <kangpeh> firebird619:  In addition, you can completely work with other file formats from other Office Suites very easily, including the large Office Suite written by Billy.
[08:09] <firebird619> I was thinking more for pictures, etc and then be able to burn them to CD and save to hard drive, etc.
[08:09] <rfmonk> I need a 'point me' to a howto configure .deb package manually plz...
[08:10] <Fujitsu> rfmonk, what do you mean?
[08:10] <rfmonk> oident.deb
[08:10] <ChankLappy> can someone help me with remote desktop?
[08:10] <rfmonk> didnt get it from repository
[08:10] <Fujitsu> You want to install it, rfmonk?
[08:10] <rfmonk> yes
[08:10] <Fujitsu> sudo dpkg -i oident.deb
[08:11] <Fujitsu> In a terminal...
[08:11] <Frogzoo> rfmonk: sudo dpkg -i blah.deb
[08:11] <dj-fu> Would anyone be able to tell me how I can make a .deb file from a .tar.gz with dpkg-buildpackage?
[08:11] <rfmonk> do you have to cd somewhere first?
[08:11] <rfmonk> okok thanks
[08:12] <Sashi> hey
[08:13] <Sashi> just did a fresh installation
[08:13] <Sashi> but i cant boot into gnome
[08:13] <Sashi> says no screens are found
[08:15] <rfmonk> is that it that was way to easy....
[08:15] <carbo> can anyone recommend a MUD/telnet client?
[08:16] <Sashi> i was thinking that it was the depth size
[08:16] <rfmonk> =]  thanks, kinda curious though, i put it in tmp before i dpkg -i it, that gona work after reboot
[08:16] <rfmonk> ?
[08:16] <YukiCuss> carbo, telnet! :)
[08:17] <carbo> YukiCuss: haha. I'm looking for something with more features... triggers/aliases/macros for MUDding
[08:17] <carbo> YukiCuss: don't think the default telnet client does that
[08:17] <rfmonk> is there a best practice for placing packages when not using aptitude or whatever?
[08:17] <YukiCuss> carbo, just type `apt-cache search MUD'; there are about 15 results, some useful.
[08:17] <FlannelKing> carbo: my favorite (albeit requiring wine) is Mushclient
[08:18] <carbo> FlannelKing: yep I love Mushclient too, but I was wondering if there was a linux client so I don't have to use wine
[08:18] <carbo> YukiCuss: alright, thanks
[08:18] <linuxboyfriend> is there any site for gnome as it is there for kde(kde-look.org)?
[08:18] <YukiCuss> linuxboyfriend, art.gnome.org
[08:18] <chavo> linuxboyfriend, gnome-look.org believe it or not
[08:18] <FlannelKing> carbo: no, not similar. They're all tintin based.  Or all that I know of.  So, more like zmud, with the "worlds" being a big initalization list and stuff.
[08:19] <linuxboyfriend> lemme check both of them
[08:19] <carbo> FlannelKing: ah, i see... well I'll try some out, but I have this feeling I'll be sticking to MUSHclient then :D
[08:20] <Sashi> a little question
[08:20] <ReWT_AxS> Back.
[08:20] <Sashi> under command
[08:20] <FlannelKing> carbo: Nick's done a lot to make it wine friendly, I haven't had problems or anything.
[08:20] <Sashi> how can i set a root password
[08:20] <rfmonk> ok one last anoying ? what is the Ubuntu Silc client used
[08:20] <ReWT_AxS> Sashi...
[08:20] <ReWT_AxS> Why would you want to?
[08:21] <kingspwned> !root
[08:21] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[08:21] <Frogzoo> !root
[08:21] <Sashi> well i need to set one
[08:21] <ReWT_AxS> lol why?
[08:21] <Sashi> cuz i gotta edit my xorg conf
[08:21] <ReWT_AxS> use sudo?
[08:21] <dli> ubuntu does "apt-get update" in cron, is it okay to disable it? I want the apt package list don't expire (for apt-cache search, for example), untill I manually "apt-get update"
[08:21] <carbo> FlannelKing: so you just run the mushclient installation using wine, or do you have to get the actual client exe
[08:22] <Frogzoo> Sashi: sudo vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:22] <linuxboyfriend> chavo, wow, gnome-look,org is just like kde-look.org :)
[08:22] <ReWT_AxS> sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:22] <chavo> yes it is :)
[08:22] <Sashi> sudo doesnt need a root password?
[08:22] <ReWT_AxS> it needs your pw
[08:22] <Madpilot> Sashi, sudo uses your own user pw
[08:22] <Frogzoo> Sashi: sudo needs YOUR password
[08:22] <Madpilot> !tell Sashi about sudo
[08:22] <Sashi> ah ok :P
[08:22] <FlannelKing> carbo: There is a thread on the forums (MC forums, not ubuntu forums) regarding how to 'install' it.
[08:22] <ReWT_AxS> :)
[08:22] <rfmonk> hmm like, i searched the ubuntu dbase didnt find silc...
[08:22] <carbo> FlannelKing: alright, thanks again.
[08:22] <FlannelKing> carbo: no problem.
[08:23] <rfmonk> anyone recomend a silc client for ubuntu dapper?
[08:23] <rfmonk> hmm like, i searched the ubuntu dbase didnt find silc...
[08:24] <Madpilot> rfmonk, do you mean silc the chat thing?
[08:24] <rfmonk> yes
[08:24] <rfmonk> my buds keep goin silc, i aint got one Madpilot
[08:24] <Madpilot> rfmonk, looks like there's something called "silky"
[08:25] <Madpilot> !info silky
[08:25] <ubotu> silky: (SILC (Secure Internet Live Conferencing) GTK+ based client), section universe/net, is optional. Version: 0.5.2-2 (breezy), Packaged size: 208 kB, Installed size: 1076 kB
[08:25] <rfmonk> cool thanks man
[08:25] <rfmonk> cool thanks man
[08:25] <Sashi> hmm
[08:25] <carbo> another question.. is there any way to transfer files from a Nokia phone to ubuntu using infrared?
[08:26] <Sashi> what would be a depth problem if xorg tells me that no screens found
[08:26] <C-O-L-T> how to make to play mp3 in amarok? I have w32codecs but still does not want to play
[08:27] <dli> Sashi, what's the exact error message? pastebin that part of your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[08:27] <sfar-ubu> !mp3
[08:27] <ubotu> mp3 is, like, a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[08:27] <Sashi> em im not on my nix atm
[08:28] <Sashi> im on my windows hdd but all from my mem is that it says no screens found :P
[08:28] <ReWT_AxS> sashi did you try to reconfigure xorg?
[08:28] <Sashi> well from other distros id had expereince
[08:28] <Sashi> it was a depth problem
[08:28] <Sashi> i had to set it to 16
[08:28] <dli> Sashi, no screen found could be a video card driver problem, or screen configuration problem
[08:28] <ChankLappy> has anyone tried installing counterstrike dedicated server on ubuntu
[08:28] <ChankLappy> ?
[08:30] <dli> Sashi, if you set it to 16 already, very likely, it's not a depth problem, maybe, you didn't set videoRam correctly in BIOS (like intel 8x5 chipsets), or you choose an invalid resolution modem
[08:30] <Sashi> well i have a ATI chipset
[08:30] <Don> A question: How is it possible to let other users (aka accounts) access my X display or X session. I want to run certain applications within Gnome as other user.
[08:31] <ReWT_AxS> sashi what ati ?
[08:31] <mebaran> vsftpd is acting up
[08:31] <mebaran> not sure why
[08:31] <Sashi> well from CPUZ
[08:31] <dli> Sashi, then, follow the ati howto, ati is anti-linux :( their driver may or may not work
[08:31] <mebaran> on localhost it works alright
[08:31] <Seveas> Don, man xhost
[08:31] <Don> thx
[08:31] <mebaran> but if I try a remote connection just calling my dyndns name
[08:31] <mebaran> it timesout
[08:32] <Seveas> ("xhost +" is the quick and dirty and quite unsafe way)
[08:32] <mebaran> I can't even get a directory listing.  Any ideas?
[08:32] <Sashi> !ati
[08:32] <ubotu> I heard ati is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI or http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24557&page=1&pp=10 or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=423589
[08:32] <dli> Sashi, however, it's always a good idea to use "ati" 2D driver from Xorg to do testing
[08:32] <mebaran> Seveas, does anyone understand xauth
[08:32] <mebaran> I've never quite figured it out
[08:32] <Seveas> mebaran, unlikely ;)
[08:33] <dli> mebaran, usually, you don't do anything about it, it should work
[08:33] <ChankLappy> is anyone actually listening?
[08:33] <Don> Seveas: perfect,thx, didnt know it was that easy
[08:33] <ReWT_AxS> ChankLappy, yes.
[08:33] <mebaran> dli, just wondering
[08:33] <FlannelKing> ChankLappy: that just means that no one has.
[08:33] <mebaran> it feels very cryptic
[08:34] <mebaran> anyway, my vsftpd is acting up
[08:34] <mebaran> and the logs don't give me any hints
[08:35] <Don> mebaran: Does it run in passive mode ?
[08:35] <mebaran> no
[08:35] <mebaran> passive mode times out as well
[08:35] <mebaran> I've tried both
[08:35] <Sashi> well atm
[08:35] <Sashi> my xorg conf file
[08:35] <Don> so, it does not do any connection ?
[08:35] <Sashi> is using ati driver
[08:36] <ReWT_AxS> Sashi what ati chipset?
[08:36] <Sashi> rs
[08:36] <Sashi> 480
[08:36] <dli> Sashi,  try, "X -configure" for testing
[08:36] <ReWT_AxS> sashi, has it ever worked?
[08:36] <Sashi> well i never used nix on this comp
[08:37] <ReWT_AxS> 64 bit?
[08:37] <Sashi> yea
[08:37] <ReWT_AxS> hmm in xorg.conf
[08:37] <ReWT_AxS> under device
[08:37] <Sashi> erm
[08:37] <mebaran> hmm
[08:37] <Sashi> well its 64bit
[08:37] <ReWT_AxS> try    option    "no accel"
[08:37] <Sashi> but i install i386
[08:37] <mebaran> the logs keep giving everything it tries to put out as a failed dll
[08:37] <mebaran> I think all my ports are forwarded
[08:37] <mebaran> what might cause vsftpd to fail to allow dll's
[08:38] <Don> did you try the connection from another host, not just yours ?
[08:38] <YukiCuss> ReWT_AxS, NoAccel is one word.
[08:38] <Sashi> where do i add that
[08:38] <carbo> i installed some things using Automatix, but Ubuntu's "Add Applications" shows those programs unchecked.. is it okay to install them with "Add Applications" again?
[08:38] <Sashi> nvm :P
[08:39] <dli> is it okay to remove apt from /etc/cron.daily ?
[08:39] <mebaran> what is really weird is friends outside my network can dial in
[08:39] <mebaran> to my ftp server
[08:40] <Don> mebaran: try to use a proxy to check
[08:40] <mebaran> but I can only use it if I open localhost, not my domain
[08:40] <mebaran> Don, how
[08:40] <mark105> when adding something to sources list im told deb http://debian.syscp.de/ <name of distribution>/ but what do i put in <name of distribution>?
[08:40] <dli> mebaran, it's a good idea to do acl in the program, and in iptables
[08:40] <ReWT_AxS> oops it is one word :-P
[08:40] <mebaran> dli, not sure what acl is, and iptables have always been a mystery
[08:41] <dli> mebaran, acl is "Access Control List"
[08:41] <mebaran> Don, where would I find a proxy server for ftp
[08:41] <dli> mebaran, try to use some frontend tools of iptables
[08:42] <mebaran> dli, iptables feels very complicated
[08:42] <mebaran> and how woudl I set up an acl
[08:42] <mebaran> for vsftpd that is
[08:42] <Don> mebaran: I am not sure where exactly, try on anonymous proxy lists
[08:42] <schmirgo> how can i get the ./configure options Xorg from ubuntu repository is compiled with?
[08:42] <Seveas> schmirgo, apt-get source the thing and look in debian/rules
[08:42] <dli> mebaran, iptables is the way to go, if you want it secure, read some iptables howto
[08:43] <YukiCuss> mebaran, iptables is actually quite simple.
[08:43] <Don> mebaran: how is your client secured: just on your server with iptables or do you have a router in between ?
[08:43] <schmirgo> Seveas, thanks
[08:43] <carbo> !firefox1.5
[08:43] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[08:43] <altos> how can i install stardict in ubuntu?
[08:43] <mebaran> router sits in between
[08:43] <mebaran> I have forwarded pors 20-21 though
[08:43] <Don> mebaran: I could check your server if it works for me too
[08:44] <mebaran> sure
[08:44] <mebaran> just my media
[08:44] <mebaran> nothing too interesting
[08:44] <mebaran> let me make a fake password
[08:45] <Adriano> 'morning
[08:45] <Don> ok
[08:45] <YukiCuss> Adriano, evneing.
[08:45] <YukiCuss> evening*
[08:45] <Adriano> that, too
[08:45] <Don> I am not interested on your server stuff, I just test if it connects
[08:45] <mebaran> ok
[08:45] <mebaran> Don<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[08:45] <tapox> What's the purpose of the 'bug report tool'? It isn't bug buddy, all it is is a launcher for Ubuntu's old bug tracker.
[08:45] <Adriano> I tried asking on dapper, but no-one seems to be able to help me there:
[08:45] <mebaran> thanks
[08:45] <Adriano> what steps do you take to configure a print server?
[08:46] <Adriano> I've tried what I can think of and the other computer still can't print
[08:46] <Don> connects.....
[08:46] <tapox> Shouldn't it be removed, or updated to point towards malone?
[08:46] <Don> ok, there is the problem
[08:46] <Don> it connects, but it wont give me the file list as it runs in passive
[08:46] <mebaran> Don, what?
[08:46] <Don> you have to define a passive range and route this one too
[08:46] <alumno> ji po comerme los webos
[08:47] <mebaran> Don, okkkkk
[08:47] <YukiCuss> alumno, english? language?
[08:47] <mebaran> any advantages to running in passive mode
[08:47] <mebaran> ?
[08:47] <mebaran> I've tried setting passive to true in the ftp client
[08:47] <Don> errr, not sure exactly, but I think, it is more secure
[08:47] <ReWT_AxS> where would i find my firefox folder? i installed 32 bit here on my 64 bit but my mozilla icons are gone?
[08:47] <alumno> ye, of course
[08:47] <Don> its not about the client, it is about the server
[08:47] <mebaran> and that doesn't affect much
[08:47] <mebaran> ok
[08:47] <Don> check the vsftp config
[08:47] <mebaran> I have a default install of vsftpd; do I have to whack the router?
[08:47] <Don> and define a passive range
[08:48] <Don> for instance 60000-60020
[08:48] <Don> and then open it on the router
[08:48] <Don> worked for me
[08:49] <Don> no clue if this is the perfect way, but it worked on my setup (with IPCop as router)
[08:49] <mebaran> but it works on and off
[08:49] <ReWT_AxS> where would i find my firefox folder? i installed 32 bit here on my 64 bit but my mozilla icons are gone? i need to put the icon folder back in
[08:50] <dj-fu> `man find`
[08:50] <dj-fu> find / -name firefox
[08:50] <Don> mebaran: what do u mean with it works on and off ?
[08:50] <dj-fu> icons are usually in /usr/share/pixmaps
[08:51] <mebaran> Don, like today it worked from a friends house and he just dll'ed some media
[08:51] <mebaran> but now it continually timesout
[08:52] <Don> mebaran: it does not timeout when you connect via localhost - ergo, there is a connection problem
[08:52] <Don> mebaran: why it worked for your friend - no clue
[08:52] <ReWT_AxS> dj-fu, i dont see my 64 bit firefox folder in the share folder
[08:52] <Don> mebaran: I just can say, I faced the same problems till I opened up a passive range
[08:52] <mebaran> Don, continaully timeouts?
[08:52] <dj-fu> ReWT_AxS, I thought you were looking for an icon
[08:52] <mebaran> I think it might be a router mangling thing
[08:53] <ReWT_AxS> i am
[08:53] <mebaran> my router is pretty nice for a cheap box; a wrt54gc
[08:53] <Don> well, it connects
[08:53] <mebaran> yeah
[08:53] <ReWT_AxS> the little one beside the name in firefox
[08:53] <mebaran> but it might mangle the high ports
[08:53] <Don> but, when it tries to retrieve the file list
[08:53] <Don> it times out
[08:53] <Don> it goes into passive mode
[08:53] <Don> was the exact problem with my install once
[08:53] <Don> as soon as I opened the pasv range
[08:53] <Don> it worked
[08:54] <ReWT_AxS> find: WARNING: Hard link count is wrong for /proc: this may be a bug in your filesystem driver.  Automatically turning on find's -noleaf option.  Earlier results may have failed to include directories that should have been searched.

[09:08] <roxanne> 256 mb I think
[09:08] <h0nus> lol well i have a gig and it still isn't much faster than windows for me
[09:08] <glick> roxanne, one way would be to run a different desktop-enviornment, gnome with all the bells and whistles really needs 512Mb ram
[09:08] <glick> roxanne, try the xubuntu-desktop
[09:09] <roxanne> okay, how do I change that?
[09:09] <glick> roxanne, which is a lite-weight version of gnome really
[09:09] <h0nus> brb
[09:09] <roxanne> glick, where would I go to download that?
[09:09] <glick> roxanne, first you enable the universe repositories
[09:09] <gnomefreak> roxanne: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[09:09] <roxanne> Glick, thats way over my head
[09:10] <glick> roxanne, you edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:10] <roxanne> I dont know anything but the GUI
[09:10] <glick> hmm
[09:10] <roxanne> how do I do all that editing and changing?
[09:10] <jbritz22> when rtunning gnome-spound-recorder i get a could not open resource for writing error when I try to play
[09:10] <glick> im not sure how to add universe repos through synaptic
[09:10] <glick> i know you can do it though
[09:10] <glick> hold up
[09:10] <roxanne> I'm what they call a 12 o clock flasher.
[09:11] <ReWT_AxS> arg i cannot get my icons working in this 32 bit firefox
[09:11] <ReWT_AxS> >.<
[09:11] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell roxanne about universe
[09:11] <glick> by the way i found a bug in gaim
[09:11] <carbo> how do i put a link to my Trash on my desktop? I can only have it as a panel applet and I can't find the trash folder anywhere
[09:11] <glick> i hope the devels fix it
[09:11] <ReWT_AxS> glick whats that
[09:11] <glick> i sent in a bug report
[09:12] <plbgnr> hello, is there opposite to modprobe?
[09:12] <The_Don> rmmod
[09:12] <arrinmurr> plbgnr: modprobe -r ?
[09:12] <ReWT_AxS> opposite?
[09:12] <gnomefreak> roxanne: the instructions are in you rpm there should be some for using synapitc
[09:12] <jbritz22> when rtunning gnome-spound-recorder i get a could not open resource for writing error when I try to play
[09:12] <glick> ReWT_AxS, apparently when the buddy list isnt available from the AOL serves immediately, gaim opens a bazillion error windows freezing the desktop
[09:12] <ReWT_AxS> hmm never had it here
[09:12] <glick> 1.5
[09:12] <glick> dont know if 2.0 does that
[09:12] <plbgnr> arrinmurr:thanks
[09:13] <glick> ReWT_AxS, me neither and ive been using giam for many years
[09:13] <carbo> never had that in 1.5 or 2.0 on both Ubuntu and Windows
[09:13] <ReWT_AxS> anyone here running 64 bit with 32 bit firefox?
[09:14] <YukiCuss> ReWT_AxS, I used to.
[09:14] <ReWT_AxS> Yuki, were your icons messed up?
[09:14] <YukiCuss> Which ones in particular?
[09:14] <ReWT_AxS> Like the little one next to the window title
[09:14] <ReWT_AxS> I have a white box there
[09:14] <ReWT_AxS> Ive tried figuring out how to fix it but i cannot?
[09:14] <YukiCuss> I can't really remember, I don't use GNOME's window manager, so I don't see the icons.
[09:15] <roxanne> i' loading the page
[09:15] <ReWT_AxS> Think you could help me figure it out?
[09:15] <YukiCuss> tristansleepin, don't rename.
[09:15] <YukiCuss> !away
[09:15] <ubotu> Please don't use public away messages or change your nick to 'someone|away'.  We know you're away when you don't respond to messages. See http://sackheads.org/~bnaylor/spew/away_msgs.html
[09:15] <roxanne> I'm going to do a bit of reading and stuff then i'll be back
[09:15] <YukiCuss> ReWT_AxS, hmm..
[09:15] <jbritz22> can anyone help me?
[09:15] <YukiCuss> !helpme
[09:15] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[09:15] <YukiCuss> ReWT_AxS, that's stored as a part of the binary; I can't imagine why it would be that way.
[09:16] <jbritz22> when rtunning gnome-spound-recorder i get a could not open resource for writing error when I try to play
[09:16] <YukiCuss> jbritz22, sounds like it doesn't like the idea of your sound device.
[09:16] <The_Don> jbritz22: I just faced this when I tried to save, it seems like it is very buggy
[09:16] <jbritz22> any other lightweight sound recorders?
[09:16] <ReWT_AxS> i dunno
[09:17] <YukiCuss> ReWT_AxS, it's not particularly a large issue, though, is it?
[09:18] <carbo> how do i put my Trash on my desktop? I can only have it as a panel applet.. if I just put a link to ~/.Trash it won't show if the Trash is empty or full
[09:18] <ReWT_AxS> its extfemely annoying?
[09:18] <roxanne> when i'm adding multi verse how do I decide whether I use binary or source?
[09:19] <YukiCuss> ReWT_AxS, I don't know why it would happen, other than a bug in the firefox binary. How did you install it?
[09:19] <YukiCuss> roxanne, use binary.
[09:19] <YukiCuss> roxanne, you only need source if you're planning on recompiling packages from it.
[09:19] <jbritz22> any other lightweight sound recorders?
[09:19] <YukiCuss> Cat feeding, back later. jbritz22, ask questions less rapidly!
[09:19] <jbritz22> ok
[09:19] <jbritz22> lol
[09:19] <ReWT_AxS> Yuki, the tutorial on forums
[09:19] <arrinmurr> jbritz22: sound-recorder
[09:20] <ReWT_AxS> !flash
[09:20] <ubotu> Installation & troubleshooting for Flash is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[09:20] <sfar-ubu> whats the command to list all my .mp3-files in /, in terminal?
[09:20] <YukiCuss> sfar-ubu, find /path/to/dir -iname *.mp3
[09:21] <variant> sfar-ubu: or ls -R /*.mp3
[09:21] <carbo> is there any way to put my Trash on my desktop? I can only have it as a panel applet.. if I just put a link to ~/.Trash it won't show if the Trash is empty or full
[09:22] <sfar-ubu> YukiCuss and variant: thanks
[09:22] <ReWT_AxS> flustern, sup man
[09:22] <roxanne> I used binary, clicked edit, and it doesn't say anything about universe or multiverse.
[09:22] <flustern> nm u?
[09:22] <kingspwned> sfar-ubu, append something like "> MyMP3" at the end of that, and you get all the output into a file called MyMP3. innit neat?
[09:22] <ReWT_AxS> Yuki, i see no where on the tut about fixing it?
[09:23] <sfar-ubu> kingspawn: to the find-command?
[09:23] <sfar-ubu> or to any command? :)
[09:23] <kingspwned> sfar-ubu, to any command. the > redirects the output of something into what you type after it
[09:23] <gnomefreak> roxanne: do you have synaptic open right now?
[09:23] <roxanne> yes
[09:23] <sfar-ubu> kingspawn: ah, thanks for the tip :)
[09:24] <kingspwned> :)
[09:24] <gnomefreak> roxanne: in a box in middle of screen do you see clicked boxes in there?
[09:24] <BedalvomKaktehen> Hi
[09:24] <roxanne> yeah.
[09:24] <BedalvomKaktehen> i've a problem, after an update my system doesn't boot
[09:24] <gnomefreak> roxanne: scroll all hte way down make sure all the boxes are clicked
[09:24] <roxanne> one sec,
[09:25] <roxanne> all of them should be?
[09:25] <gnomefreak> roxanne: yes they should be
[09:25] <BedalvomKaktehen> oh, i must say that i use dapper
[09:25] <BedalvomKaktehen> after a update dapper doesn't boot
[09:25] <roxanne> Gnomefreak, Thanks, Hold on.
[09:25] <gnomefreak> BedalvomKaktehen: dapper support please refer to #ubuntu+1
[09:26] <roxanne> gnomefreak, nom they are.
[09:26] <roxanne> *now
[09:26] <gnomefreak> roxanne: now click close and synaptic should update your list
[09:27] <glick> i hope that dapper will feature more stable kde enviornment
[09:27] <gnomefreak> glick: are you using kde 3.5?
[09:27] <glick> does anyone besdies me find kubuntu desktop really unstable
[09:27] <msimundic> hey hey guys got a problem with ndiswrapper. can anyone help me. p.s. I'm a harsh n00b
[09:27] <glick> gnomefreak, yeah i was
[09:27] <roxanne> gnomefreak, It is reloading the package list from servers for the effect to be felt.
[09:28] <gnomefreak> roxanne: ;) goodie
[09:28] <sfar-ubu> YukiCuss and kingspwned

[09:28] <dli> is it okay for me to remove /etc/cron.daily/apt ? I'm on dialup
[09:28] <driggers> any one know of a page explaining how to install armagetron?  step by step like the one for firefox?
[09:28] <YukiCuss> sfar-ubu, just ignore that. You probably shouldn't want to search all of /
[09:28] <gnomefreak> roxanne: when its done click search and type in xubuntu-desktop   <<<if that was what you wanted
[09:28] <glick> is dapper shipping with kde 4
[09:28] <glick> and will that be more stable?
[09:28] <gnomefreak> no glick
[09:28] <YukiCuss> roxanne, not a problem.
[09:29] <glick> am i the only one that bitches about kde?
[09:29] <MistaED> glick: what's so terribly unstable about kde 3.5?
[09:29] <glick> i like kde, i just cant have my shit crashin on me all the time
[09:29] <Langly1> is the ubuntu live cd SMP capable?
[09:29] <gnomefreak> glick: no but i thought 3.5 was fairly stable
[09:29] <kingspwned> sfar-ubu, in linux, files and devices can be the same thing, etc, so sometimes there are incidents like that. its no problem
[09:29] <glick> MistaED, konqueror for one would always crash on me
[09:29] <MistaED> i've found it to be quite stable compared to like, kde 3.3 and lower
[09:30] <dli> Langly1, usually, you don't need smp livecd, you can enable smp after installation
[09:30] <Langly1> dli how, only thing i have ever done smp with is gentoo
[09:30] <glick> i like the idea of kde
[09:30] <dli> gnomefreak, k3b, kstars, kopete are all good
[09:30] <roxanne> My computer just got really slow, but I can still type.
[09:30] <gnomefreak> dli: and they all run under gnome ;)
[09:31] <dli> Langly1, oh, you can build your kernel with smp, or choose pre-built ubuntu kernel with "smp" in name
[09:31] <wd3> is it necsry to install firewall and antivirus on linux?
[09:31] <gnomefreak> !firewall
[09:31] <ubotu> Ubuntu has, like every other linux distribution, firewalling built into the kernel. A simple frontend to this firewall is firestarter, which can be installed via synaptic.
[09:31] <Langly1> dli so on install, or just the kernel you boot
[09:31] <Langly1> is there a guide I can read
[09:31] <dli> gnomefreak, then, you still use kde for something
[09:31] <dli> Langly1, smp is in kernel only
[09:32] <wd3> thank you but is it worth installing?
[09:32] <zF> you are never going to get laid
[09:32] <Langly1> yes, when installing the computer, or on picking the kernel on the boot
[09:32] <zF> what are you doing with yor lives
[09:32] <zF> go die
[09:32] <dli> Langly1, if you want to program for smp, you need a howto, but setting smp up is in BIOS and kernel only
[09:32] <zF> you are useless
[09:32] <Badm4n> how to check running cron tab on my box ?
[09:32] <zF> deriously go get a girl....any girl
[09:32] <Langly1> dli I KNOW
[09:33] <zF> becaue you suck
[09:33] <Langly1> I am asking when to choose that kernel
[09:33] <Langly1> Stop telling me what I have said I already know and answer the question
[09:33] <dli> Langly1, apt-cache search linux-image
[09:33] <gnomefreak> dli: ho i dont have kde installed at all i have edubuntu installed ;)
[09:33] <wd3> langly1, i was told that linux is safr than win so firewall and antivirus isn't needed.
[09:33] <sfar-ubu> is it possible to take a screenshot with menus and mouse cursor visible?
[09:33] <gnomefreak> zF: the is not the place for that
[09:33] <gnomefreak> s/ho/how
[09:33] <roxanne> I'm a girl, and anyone who calls themself a geek is good people.
[09:34] <dli> sfar-ubu, try, ksnapshot, it can take after a delay
[09:34] <sfar-ubu> aight, thank you dli
[09:34] <zF> no you're not - you're a guy, you're not fooling anyone.
[09:34] <gnomefreak> !ops
[09:34] <ubotu> Help! lilo, fabbione, lamont, Keybuk, jdub, mdz, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot, ompaul, rob or Hobbsee
[09:34] <Langly1> dli ok that about answers it, just need to change out the kernel that grub picks on the starup after installing the correct kernel, or will installing that kernel automaticly configure grub
[09:34] <flie> anybode have this file /boot/initrd.img-2.6.12-9-amd64-generic?
[09:34] <alexnicol> Morning
[09:34] <glick> zF, whats your problem dude?
[09:35] <dli> roxanne, "anyone who calls himself/herself is a good person", just some logic, no offending
[09:35] <alexnicol> anyone know anything about printer drivers?
[09:35] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell alexnicol about print
[09:35] <roxanne> seriously, if I were a guy, I wouldn't be asking for a walk through, I would be pushing buttons hoping it would work.
[09:35] <dli> Langly1, if not sure, run "update-grub"
[09:35] <roxanne> sorry about that guy/girl thing, I am dealing with a stereotype.
[09:35] <roxanne> sorry.
[09:35] <dli> alexnicol, be more specific, "anyone" doesn't help you at all
[09:36] <sfar-ubu> dli, i noticed it was for kde.. will it work in gnome also?
[09:36] <alexnicol> Ok - I have spent a couple of months scouring the net for drivers for my MP370.  From what I can gather it is another printer redesigned with a scanner on top
[09:36] <dli> sfar-ubu, what is for kde?
[09:36] <gnomefreak> alexnicol: you will know about printer drivers if you look in your pm ;)
[09:36] <sfar-ubu> dli: ksnapshot
[09:36] <ReWT_AxS> anyone here running 64 bit with 32 bit firefox?
[09:36] <glick> i must say i love kontact
[09:36] <sfar-ubu> dli: atleast the description says so
[09:37] <glick> kontact is one sweet app
[09:37] <dli> sfar-ubu, it's program, should work in all X
[09:37] <sfar-ubu> dli, ok :)
[09:37] <roxanne> okay, when I find xbuntu on the list I just mark them all?
[09:37] <glick> roxanne, just xubuntu-desktop
[09:38] <Badm4n> how to check running cron tab on my box ?
[09:38] <glick> Badm4n, crontab -l
[09:38] <Langly1> dli ok and sorry for getting a little mad, I knew SMP was only in the kernel and was just asking when to select the right kernel, during the install or if there was more than one to pick from on cd/install as you can select your kernel at times there
[09:38] <Langly1> and you just kept popping back with "smp is in kernel only"
[09:39] <roxanne> okay, then do I click apply?
[09:39] <ReWT_AxS> err whats the keystroke to show desktop?
[09:39] <glick> roxanne, yes
[09:39] <Langly1> I have some anger issues when it comes to instead of answering the question I asked repeating no brainer info I already know
[09:39] <Xenguy> Badm4n: or ps aux |grep cron  (should output '/usr/sbin/cron' if cron is running)
[09:39] <Badm4n> i c
[09:39] <gnomefreak> Langly1: during default install you dont choose but that can be changed fairly easy after install is done
[09:39] <gnomefreak> roxanne: you got it ;)
[09:39] <Langly1> ok, thats what i needed to know
[09:39] <MistaED> hey talking about scanners, could someone suggest one which is compact and has great support in linux? i know looking up sane is the way to go but from a friend i know, his scanner has "good" support but really, there isn't
[09:39] <roxanne> After it does it's thing, then what?
[09:40] <Langly1> I have the odd problem of failing simple installs but always getting the most complex stuff right
[09:40] <gnomefreak> roxanne: you can log out and on the log in screen click sessions than choose xfce and log in ;)
[09:40] <Langly1> like my stage3 gentoo installs fail at times, but stage1's always work perfectly
[09:40] <dli> Langly1, "apt-cache search linux-image" to search, find the one you need, and "apt-get install"
[09:41] <Langly1> thanks
[09:42] <dli> Langly1, or get kernel source, "apt-cache search linux-source", or get from kernel.org , and build your own
[09:42] <roxanne> okay, i'll be back, and if something happens I'd like to say thanks.
[09:42] <gnomefreak> roxanne: it should install a lot of apps for xfce if you find that you need one that it doesnt install open synaptic and search for xfce and just find the apps if any you will want
[09:43] <dli> roxanne, apt-get install xfce4
[09:43] <gnomefreak> dli: no she has xubuntu
[09:44] <roxanne> okay, thanks for the tips do i get xfce4?
[09:44] <MistaED> i always find xfce4 lacking too much and i end up adding all the services and nautilus from gnome to the point where there really isn't any point of running xfce4 =/
[09:44] <Badm4n> how to make idle screensaver at remote console ( from putty )
[09:45] <dli> Badm4n, xset -display :0 s off
[09:45] <Badm4n> root@safana:/home/mirza# xset -display :1 s off
[09:45] <Badm4n> bash: xset: command not found
[09:46] <dli> Badm4n, do you have apt-file? "apt-file update;apt-file search xset
[09:47] <gnomefreak> roxanne: xubuntu-desktop is xfce4 with other apps
[09:47] <gnomefreak> brb again
[09:47] <dli> gnomefreak, does xfce4-panel crashes in xubuntu, it keeps crashing here
[09:47] <Badm4n> dli : root@safana:/home/mirza# xset -display :1 s off <-- is this correct ? and where i should to put this command? i want to auto running xmatrix at my putty.exe when im idle in 10s
[09:48] <glick> ill brb gonna try out kubuntu
[09:49] <Kezzer> I broke my Ubuntu after having it for a week, gah =(
[09:49] <driggers> i'm installing xubuntu.  should i install gdm?  of kdm?  i mean are they a lot nicer than the basic?
[09:50] <h0nus> BRB
[09:50] <dli> driggers, I like gdm, auto login without passwd
[09:50] <Kezzer> I installed kubuntu-desktop last night, then I removed it and now I just get issues
[09:51] <Badm4n> dli : root@safana:/home/mirza# xset -display :1 s off <-- is this correct ? and where i should to put this command? i want to auto running xmatrix at my putty.exe when im idle in 10s
[09:51] <dli> driggers, please tell me whether your xfce4-panel crashes
[09:51] <Kezzer> if I log out it no longer asks me if I want to shut down or whatever, it just goes to a blank screen
[09:51] <Healot> doesn't really matter which dm you use :)
[09:51] <driggers> dli i don't think i could if i wanted to
[09:51] <Kezzer> I can't open the login screen setup in the admin option
[09:51] <dli> Badm4n, I don't understand your english, make it in short sentences, english is not my language
[09:51] <gnomefreak> Kezzer: sudo apt-get install gnome-art
[09:52] <Zalbor> I need to get the command "modprobe snd-seq" to be run automatically every time I boot, with root privileges. They told me to put it in the init script, how do I do that?
[09:52] <gnomefreak> Kezzer: is it in the admin optios?
[09:52] <gnomefreak> options*
[09:52] <Badm4n> dli : i want to run cmatrix ( screensaver ) when i'm idle in 10second .. ( FYI : i want it to run at my putty.exe
[09:52] <dli> Zalbor, /etc/modules
[09:52] <Kezzer> gnomefreak, yes
[09:53] <MistaED> kezzer: did you change from gdm to kdm when it asked?
[09:53] <Kezzer> I installed kubuntu-desktop, used kdm instead, then I removed it all
[09:53] <glick> hmm resolution is crappy
[09:53] <gnomefreak> Kezzer: try killall gnome-panel than see if it will open (are you on breezy?)
[09:53] <Kezzer> MistaED, I told it to, but nothing happened
[09:53] <Zalbor> dli, So I just add it to the list? Thanks
[09:53] <Badm4n> dli : in other word ... how to make screen saver ( run cmatrix ) when i'm idle on my remote console
[09:53] <MistaED> sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm possibly?
[09:53] <MistaED> to make it the default
[09:53] <Kezzer> gnomefreak, I've been using linux for a week so this is confusing me ;)
[09:53] <Kezzer> how can I tell which desktop manager is running?
[09:54] <dli> Zalbor, yes
[09:54] <Kezzer> 'cause I'm not sure if gdm or kdm is running at the moment
[09:54] <Zalbor> Thanks
[09:54] <gnomefreak> Kezzer: where is your menu?
[09:54] <dli> Badm4n, run any screensaver with some options
[09:54] <driggers> hm.  if  already have a gui running do i automatically have xubuntu?
[09:54] <driggers> dli?
[09:54] <Kezzer> At the top
[09:54] <gnomefreak> Kezzer: you are using gnome
[09:54] <Kezzer> Ok =)
[09:54] <dli> driggers, you could or couldnt
[09:54] <Badm4n> dli try to apt-cache search cmatrix
[09:54] <Kezzer> but I did apt-get remove qtlib3-mt last night
[09:54] <Kezzer> and all of the kubuntu stuff is still there
[09:55] <Kezzer> and it won't let me get into the panel to change the login screen at all
[09:55] <gnomefreak> Kezzer: libqt3-mt
[09:56] <Kezzer> ok done that gnomefreak, it asks if I want to stop the kdm daemon, but if I do that it'll kill off the desktop and will go back to command line without letting me enter any commands
[09:56] <dli> Badm4n, however, running screensaver across net is a bad idea, huge traffic load for your net
[09:57] <visik7> is there any inconvenience in using a vanilla kernel over the ubuntu kernel? I mean: is there some patches vital for ubuntu not privided by vanilla kernel ?
[09:57] <Badm4n> this only for local server ... gateway server only
[09:57] <dli> visik7, I use vanilla kernel, 2.6.16 now
[09:57] <visik7> no problem for evms ?
[09:57] <Badm4n> dli : this only for local server ... gateway server only
[09:58] <gnomefreak> Kezzer: yes you want to stop it (rebooting should fix that
[09:58] <dli> Badm4n, pointless to add the traffic load, running a windows screensaver sounds better
[09:58] <glick> damn my fonts and resolution in kubuntu is aweful
[09:58] <Kezzer> Ok, give me a second
[09:58] <glick> maybe its cause gnome is interfereing with it somehow
[09:59] <Badm4n> dli : i want to create like "autolog - Terminates connections for idle users "but i want to run screensaver not kick
[10:00] <glick> haha konqueror just crashed again on me
[10:00] <glick> i love it!
[10:00] <dli> glick, which version of konqueror?
[10:01] <Badm4n> dli : i want to create like "autolog - Terminates connections for idle users "but i want to run screensaver not kick
[10:01] <dli> glick, my xfce4-panel crashes in about every 10 minutes
[10:01] <driggers> dli xfce does not crash
[10:01] <driggers> and it's cute
[10:01] <glick> dli, 3.4.3
[10:01] <Badm4n> xfce it simple
[10:01] <Badm4n> where is ubuntu artwork channel ?
[10:01] <dli> Badm4n, you can make sshd keep connections (idle time?)
[10:02] <dli> driggers, it keeps crashing for me
[10:02] <driggers> oh :(
[10:02] <Badm4n> dli : what is the command/config ?
[10:02] <glick> is 3.4.3 not the version i want to be  using?
[10:02] <Kezzer> Heh, that didn't work whatsoever
[10:02] <dli> glick, too bad :( I don't want to try 3.5.1
[10:02] <Kezzer> I think it'd be easier if I reinstalled Linux
[10:02] <dli> Badm4n, in /etc/ssh/sshd_config, mand sshd_config
[10:02] <driggers> Kezzer did u say u have a mac mini?
[10:02] <Kezzer> Nope
[10:02] <driggers> k
[10:02] <Badm4n> i know
[10:02] <ubushine> dli, probably bad fonts
[10:03] <Kezzer> Gah, how did I break Ubuntu so easily?
[10:03] <Badm4n> but how to run my "sh" when ever the user idle ?
[10:03] <dli> ubushine, it shouldn't crash still :(
[10:03] <ubushine> dli, with bad fonts it will
[10:03] <Badm4n> rite now my sshd = keep alive
[10:03] <Badm4n> but i want to run cmatrix ( some program ) when i have idle user
[10:03] <dli> ubushine, could be, by openning some windows created filenames
[10:03] <Badm4n> like a screensaver
[10:03] <Gareth> hm, what would be a mid-range processor for a desktop?
[10:04] <Badm4n> nvm ... thx dli ..
[10:04] <Badm4n> anyone know what is ubuntu art channel ?
[10:05] <Healot> entry-level? hum I would suggest  a P4 for today
[10:05] <Gareth> yeah, was thinking a P4
[10:05] <Healot> AMD Athlon or something in the same class
[10:05] <Gareth> not worth going with dual core yet?
[10:05] <roxanne> Hooray! I'm running xfce4!
[10:06] <Healot> dual core?
[10:06] <Gareth> yeah, the Pentium D line
[10:06] <MistaED> kezzer: run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm"
[10:06] <Healot> unless you have that intel compiler, then go with duel-core
[10:06] <ubushine> roxanne, me too. good choice
[10:07] <roxanne> the settings are way harder than gnome.
[10:07] <Healot> i guess there is no need for a duel-core CPU, at least for me...
[10:07] <Kezzer> kezzer@kezzer:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[10:07] <Kezzer> Password:
[10:07] <Kezzer> grep: /etc/X11/default-display-manager: No such file or directory
[10:07] <Kezzer>  * Reloading GNOME Display Manager configuration...  * Changes will take effect when all current X sessions have ended.
[10:07] <Kezzer> invoke-rc.d: initscript gdm, action "reload" failed.
[10:07] <Kezzer> doh, it still retains formatting, sorry
[10:07] <Badm4n> anyone know what is ubuntu art channel ?
[10:07] <roxanne> ubusunshine, do you know any more basic types?
[10:07] <dli> roxanne, I think you have play the trick, "Exit", "Save Sessions for Future Use"
[10:08] <MistaED> kezzer: rubbish, you can fix this :) sudo apt-get install gdm
[10:08] <roxanne> It asked me if I want this as my default session.
[10:08] <gnomefreak> Badm4n: did you try #ubuntu-artwork?
[10:08] <roxanne> I said yes.
[10:08] <ompaul> Badm4n, try #ubuntu-art
[10:08] <Badm4n> ok
[10:09] <ubushine> roxanne, basic types of what?
[10:09] <gnomefreak> yeah what ompaul said
[10:09] <ompaul> actually wait a moment
[10:09] <glick> heh looks like #kubuntu is dead
[10:09] <gnomefreak> it just turned 4am here
[10:09] <roxanne> ubusunshine, basic GUIs
[10:09] <Kezzer> MistaED, I did that, it said gdm is already the latest version then it configured kdm =X
[10:10] <gnomefreak> the one i said has a few people in it
[10:10] <MistaED> kezzer: ok there's a way to fix up installed packages using apt but i cannot remember the exact way of doing this
[10:10] <ubushine> roxanne, i'm ubushine not ubusunshine. basick window managers/desktop managers. there are lots. one of my favourits is enlightenment. grab yourself a copy of elive and be amazed!
[10:10] <gnomefreak> its #ubuntu-artwork unless theres another one
[10:11] <xsquared> hi, is there a Lighttpd package for breezy that i could download somewhere?
[10:11] <ompaul> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InternetRelayChat  <-- list of all channels no art channel so go with that one
[10:11] <Frogzoo> !info gnome-art
[10:11] <ubotu> gnome-art: (install GNOME themes from art.gnome.org), section universe/gnome, is optional. Version: 0.2-1ubuntu1 (breezy), Packaged size: 26 kB, Installed size: 200 kB
[10:11] <ompaul> have a look on the wiki for the art team

[10:11] <Frogzoo> !themes
[10:11] <gnomefreak> its #ubuntu-artwork it has 10-20 people in there
