[02:53] <cablesm102> Jambon, just plug it in.
[02:53] <kupesoft> 00:0e.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5212 802.11abg NIC (rev 01)
[02:53] <eck> xtknight: it is a server
[02:53] <eck> no gui
[02:53] <cablesm102> Jambon, you should get a prompt when you plug it in
[02:53] <Jambon> ya f-spot is crashing like mad
[02:53] <xtknight> there's picasa too.  wont that import pics?
[02:53] <cablesm102> Jambon, you can just pull the photos off of it like a drive if you can't use f-spot
[02:53] <cablesm102> Picasa should work
[02:54] <Twish`> any ideas how to install ubuntu from hard disk?
[02:54] <eck> Twish`: if you have an extra partition, you can use grub to boot the CD's kernel
[02:54] <Jambon> cablesm102: so where is it located?
[02:54] <xtknight> what's the atheros module called?
[02:54] <Twish`> how?
[02:54] <eternalswd> aent, did you ever get the ssh connection working?
[02:54] <aent> yeah, thanks a bunch
[02:54] <MarcN> xtknight: ath_pci and related
[02:54] <eck> Twish`: um, search on the arch linux wiki, I used that method to install ubuntu
[02:54] <cablesm102> Jambon, Picasa?
[02:55] <xtknight> kupesoft, what does this report: "sudo modprobe ath_pci"
[02:55] <xtknight> MarcN, thanks
[02:55] <aent> eternalswd, actually, I got another question since you're clearly very knowledgable... :D how do I run an app on that computer and have the GUI appear on my screen? (X11 forwarding now?)
[02:55] <kupesoft> xtknight: FATAL: Module ath_pci not found
[02:55] <xtknight> kupesoft, i guess the server kernel doesn't have ath_pci.  strikingly odd
[02:55] <kupesoft> xtknight: xtknight, agreed!
[02:56] <cablesm102> Jambon, are you asking where Picasa is, or your camera? Picasa is at http://picasa.google.com/linux/, and your camera should show up on the desktop
[02:56] <kupesoft> xtknight: Can I switch kernels or something?
[02:56] <kupesoft> xtknight: Or can I install the restricted modules?
[02:56] <xtknight> kupesoft, i dont think it would be in restricted modules would it?
[02:56] <kupesoft> xtknight: I've no idea,
[02:56] <Galdunn> Hi guys, I need help
[02:56] <xtknight> !restricted-modules
[02:56] <cablesm102> !ask | Galdunn
[02:56] <ubotu> Galdunn: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:56] <Galdunn> I've looked all around the ubuntu forums, cannot find a solution.
[02:57] <cablesm102> !ask | Galdunn
[02:57] <Galdunn> During installation, after the ubuntu loading screen I get multiple errors.
[02:57] <kupesoft> xtknight: Thanks for the help thus far
[02:57] <Galdunn> hdd: timeout waiting for DMA
[02:57] <Jambon> cablesm102: where the camera is. It's not showing up when i plug it in
[02:57] <Jambon> and turn it on
[02:57] <Galdunn> Buffer I/O error on device hdd, logical block
[02:57] <xtknight> kupesoft, i think you can just install the desktop kernel on your server.  but dont replace it.  just install an extra linux-image
[02:57] <xtknight> kupesoft, that way you can choose at bootup in case the desktop kernel fails
[02:58] <xtknight> anyone know why the server excludes some networking modules?
[02:58] <Cin> can anyone direct me to a forum post about how to get the drivers install for Intel 915 video cards?
[02:58] <kupesoft> xtknight, just by apt-get install?
[02:58] <cablesm102> Jambon, I don't know. Do you have a camera that works as a USB mass storage device?
[02:58] <xtknight> kupesoft, look through synaptic for 'linux image'
[02:58] <Cin> I got a package from the intel web site, but it won't "compile"
[02:58] <kupesoft> xtknight: sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.17-10-generic ?
[02:58] <Twish`> if i have no cdrom, just an ubuntu image, how to install it from older ubuntu version?
[02:58] <kupesoft> xtknight: run that on the server?
[02:58] <Jambon> cablesm102: it usually shows up under windows. don't know what is going on
[02:58] <cablesm102> wait, kupesoft
[02:59] <kupesoft> cablesm102: ?
[02:59] <skel> does ubuntu have support for wpa psk/tkip and a friendly interface to manage it? or do I have to muck with wireless-tools etc?
[02:59] <xtknight> kupesoft, i guess.  see what cablesm102 has to say
[02:59] <cablesm102> xtnight, shouldn't he use linux, not linux-image? linux will come with restricted.
[02:59] <xtknight> i have no idea
[02:59] <cablesm102> as in linux-generic
[02:59] <xtknight> what are restricted modules in the first place?
[03:00] <xtknight> i was never familiar with it
[03:00] <Leafw> once I make changes to the /boot/grub/menu.lst, how do they get updated?
[03:00] <Galdunn> I'm having trouble installing ubuntu. After the ubuntu loading screen [with the orange progress bar] - it comes to a black screen with multiple errors including [hdd: timeout waitin for DMA] , and [Buffer I/O error on device hdd, logical block 357565] . Anyone know how to get it to work?
[03:00] <xtknight> madwifi is a restricted module?  is that why?
[03:00] <xtknight> binary blobs, right?
[03:00] <Leafw> is it like yaboot, that I have to cann ybin first to update the boot menu?
[03:00] <cablesm102> kupesoft, use linux-generic
[03:00] <kupesoft> Alright,
[03:00] <cablesm102> kupesoft, linux-generic will always depend on the latest linux kernel and related stuff like modules
[03:01] <xtknight> cablesm102, could he still use the server kernel with restricted modules then?
[03:01] <kupesoft> xtknight, cablesm102: sudo apt-get install linux-generic it is...
[03:01] <cablesm102> xtnight, i don't think it replaces the old kernel and modules
[03:01] <cablesm102> xtnight, i'm not a complete expert, but i had to install a kernel back on dapper
[03:01] <xtknight> linux-generic points to a server kernel or a generic kernel on a server sources.list setup?
[03:02] <cablesm102> xtnight, don't know.
[03:02] <Cin> how do I show the version of my video card?
[03:02] <xtknight> Cin, BIOS version?
[03:02] <Cin> version/type
[03:02] <Cin> xtknight, any, say, if I want to get the right driver for it
[03:02] <cablesm102> Cin, try lspci
[03:02] <kupesoft> xtknight, cablesm102: couldn't I just try installing the restricted modules rather than the desktop kernel?
[03:02] <EricL> Does it make sense to anyone that startx doesn't work, but xinit startkde does?
[03:02] <Eleaf> Hello
[03:03] <Eleaf> I'm trying to install a program, and it asks for gtk+ 2.6 or newer, but the repositories only seem to have gtk+ 2.0!!
[03:03] <xtknight> kupesoft, that's what i was thinking.  give it a shot
[03:03] <Cin> cablesm102, 915GM/GMS/910GML -- which is it?
[03:03] <Eleaf> libgtk2.0
[03:03] <xtknight> kupesoft, couldn't hurt
[03:03] <kupesoft> xtknight: I'll try that first,
[03:03] <Cin> cablesm102, or, which do I search for drivers?
[03:03] <Eleaf> How could ubuntu have such old gtk+?
[03:03] <xtknight> Cin, it can't tell.  those all use the same device ID
[03:03] <xtknight> Cin, they all use the same driver too so it doesnt matter
[03:03] <Cin> oh. fantastic
[03:04] <Brady_M> Anyone here have an logitech orbitz webcam
[03:04] <xtknight> Cin, just tell us your chipset if you really want to know which integrated one u have
[03:04] <kupesoft> xtknight: linux-restricted-modules-server doesn't exist
[03:04] <kupesoft> xtknight: linux-restricted-modules-generic will work?
[03:04] <xtknight> Cin, but yours uses an i810 driver to my knowledge
[03:04] <cablesm102> kupesoft, i'm really not that great at this stuff. i'd listen to xtnight.
[03:04] <lounge> Ahh.. good morning Ladies & Gentlemen
[03:04] <Brady_M> !quickcam
[03:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about quickcam - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:04] <cablesm102> !ask | lounge
[03:04] <ubotu> lounge: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:04] <slvmchn> ha this is pretty funny
[03:04] <slvmchn> http://www.ubuntuattack.info/
[03:04] <Brady_M> !logitech
[03:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about logitech - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:05] <Cin> xtknight, well Xorg is using that one, apparently. but it's not working properly
[03:05] <Brady_M> uhg!
[03:05] <xtknight> kupesoft, looks like you need the linux-generic kernel itself then (along with generic restr modul).  you will taint the kernel by using modules not compiled for its revision.
[03:05] <lounge> i was getting there cablesm102 ...
[03:05] <kupesoft> xtknight: What's my alternative here?
[03:05] <Cin> man this is tedious
[03:05] <lounge> any yous guys know about kiosk mode? without kde?
[03:05] <cablesm102> xtnight, linux-generic will depend on both linux-image and linux-restricted for your kernel version
[03:05] <kupesoft> xtknight: Compile the kernel module by hand?
[03:06] <xtknight> kupesoft, copy server kernel config and enable ath_pci, recompile
[03:06] <xtknight> kupesoft, also applies for kernel config, not only version as far as i know.
[03:06] <xtknight> err
[03:06] <xtknight> kupesoft, ignore that
[03:06] <xtknight> cablesm102, the last message i sent to kupesoft was what i meant to send to you
[03:07] <cablesm102> ok...
[03:07] <xtknight> i don't know exactly
[03:07] <Leafw> how can I change from which partition is grub reading the /boot/grub/menu.lst ? Now it's redaing from sda6, and I need it to read from sda5
[03:07] <xtknight> but restricted modules for generic wont work for server probably
[03:07] <xtknight> Cin, how is it not working?
[03:07] <xtknight> Cin, slow graphics?  have you enabled dri?
[03:07] <Cin> xtknight, yes, I have enabled DRI
[03:08] <Leafw> grub is in the MBr so it needs to be updated, how? I know yaboo,t not grub, does it work the  same way? needs an update with sudo somehow?
[03:08] <burzum> how can i mount a drive in fstab for all users?
[03:08] <burzum> im using fsdrivers to access a drive with windows and linux
[03:08] <Cin> xtknight, they graphics are slow. glxgears gives 500fps, and the windows on GNOME are just generally very slow
[03:08] <cablesm102> burzum, fstab doesn't depend on users
[03:08] <burzum> cablesm102 groups?
[03:09] <xtknight> Cin, odd im surprised glxgears is getting 500 fps
[03:09] <burzum> whatever, i want to access it without any trouble
[03:09] <Cin> xtknight, I have enabled DRI and RenderAccel. I can only assume its not the right driver
[03:09] <xtknight> Cin, is direct rendering enabled?  glxinfo
[03:10] <xtknight> burzum, umask to control user access afaik.
[03:10] <cables_malo> what is the soundcard mixer in ubuntu 6?
[03:10] <xtknight> burzum, it's octal though (like 0022) not like 666 permissions.  i have no idea how that num system works but its' not the same
[03:10] <xtknight> cables_malo, ALSA by default
[03:10] <Cin> xtknight, er, it was. or is. now that I've tried installing the Intel binary driver and failed, glxinfo is now display an error and direct rendering is not enabled
[03:10] <cables_malo> what is the command line to the app because i cant find it in the xubuntu GUI
[03:10] <Cin> xtknight, ERROR: line 114, Function intelInitDriver, File intel_screen.c
[03:11] <cables_malo> i can hear i just need a little more volume
[03:11] <xtknight> cables_malo, alsamixer is a command line one to hold you over.  im not sure what xubuntu's mixer is
[03:11] <cables_malo> should be the same
[03:11] <cables_malo> this is just ubuntu on a live CD with Xfce
[03:11] <cables_malo> i think
[03:11] <xtknight> does it have the gnome libraries?
[03:12] <kupesoft> xtknight: So what can I do to get ath_pci in the ubuntu server kernel. Or should I just use the generic one?
[03:12] <xtknight> sorry i dont know enough about xubuntu to properly conclude if you can run a gtk app on it or not.
[03:12] <burzum> xtknight, yea, the problem is, windows fsdriver can only write files as root
[03:12] <madman91> hello all.. i am running ubuntu 6.06-64bit.. and i am burning a dvd with gnome-baker .. it takes 100% cpu.. well it slows down my computer
[03:12] <cables_malo> im shure it does becasue cheesetracker is running so it must have gtk or something..
[03:12] <cables_malo> prolly
[03:12] <burzum> if i boot linux all files or changed files are only accessible as root
[03:12] <cables_malo> and amule
[03:12] <xtknight> cables_malo, aptget install  gnome-alsamixer i guess
[03:13] <bruenig> madman91, are you burning an iso?
[03:13] <xtknight> kupesoft, try the generic one i suppose.  dont uninstall any kernels though.  just install the generic image and it will appear on grub startup for you to choose.
[03:13] <xtknight> burzum, what is fsdriver?
[03:13] <madman91> bruenig: yes
[03:13] <shatrat> xtknight, its an ext2/ext3 driver for windows
[03:13] <xtknight> burzum, is it a new method of accessing ntfs?  i thought those used FUSE (kernel module) so that they would be accessible to users
[03:14] <burzum> http://www.fs-driver.org/
[03:14] <shatrat> i use it, !worksforme
[03:14] <cables_malo> thanks
[03:14] <burzum> its ext2/3 driver for windos
[03:14] <bruenig> madman91, you can see what sort of cpu usage you get doing it from command line: growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/hd?=whatever.iso
[03:14] <xtknight> burzum, so what is the problem exactly?
[03:14] <madman91> bruenig: does that burn?
[03:15] <bruenig> madman91, yeah
[03:15] <madman91> bruenig: well i am burning it now...
[03:15] <bruenig> madman91, make sure you replace ? and whatever
[03:15] <burzum> xtknight, as i said alreadY: if you save/change a file running windows on the ext2/3 partitiom its saved as root:root
[03:15] <bruenig> madman91, well what was your question then
[03:15] <deafboy> how does someone know when xdvdshrink is doing something? it doesn't have a progress report
[03:15] <volcom> anyone particularly good at trouble shooting audio problems
[03:16] <madman91> bruenig: why do k3b and gnomebaker use so much cpu power?
[03:16] <volcom> i've got a sound blaster audigy card
[03:16] <xtknight> madman91, possibly no DMA
[03:16] <volcom> and it randomly boots working
[03:16] <volcom> but most often boots with no sound
[03:16] <clbrown> Hi!  Trying to install Ubuntu for the first time.  I'm stuck on step 5 of the install where you choose where to mount all your partitions.  I have four partitions: hda1 (swap), hda2 (suse 10), hdb1(where i want to install unbuntu), and hdb2 (various stuff).  It correctly guessed my swap and mounting points for hda2 and hdb2.  I chose "/" for hdb1.  When I hit "Forward", I get an error that says "No root file system".  Help appreci
[03:16] <madman91> xtknight: nope .. dma is enabled
[03:16] <kupesoft> xtknight: Does it make a significant performance difference that I'm running a generic kernel instead of the server kernel?
[03:16] <bruenig> madman91, well you should test it from the command line, since that is the command they use and see if the cpu usage is different. If it isn't different then you know that it isn't the apps but the burning itself
[03:16] <xtknight> kupesoft, i dont know.  i thought the server just scheduled differently.
[03:17] <madman91> bruenig: ok thanks
[03:17] <madman91> bruenig: if it helps.. gnomebaker uses dd
[03:17] <xtknight> kupesoft, nothing huge probably but on a big server you may want to use the 'server' kernel.  is this a small or big one?
[03:17] <kupesoft> xtknight: Small server that's barely used ;/
[03:17] <bruenig> madman91, it uses growisofs, that little builtin dd thing is the first line of output from the growisofs command
[03:17] <kupesoft> xtknight: I'm rebooting it right now
[03:17] <xtknight> kupesoft, well generic wont be much trouble im assuming
[03:18] <Flannel> kupesoft: you'll be fine with generic
[03:18] <kupesoft> xtknight: I just installed linux-generic
[03:18] <Flannel> kupesoft: of course, youd be fine with -server too.  So, whatever you currently have, just... stick with it ;)
[03:18] <ljlolel> i have an iso, I don't want to mount it, how do I make it a device itself, like in /dev/cdrom?
[03:18] <xtknight> Flannel, server kernel does not contain ath_pci for his card apparnetly so he has no choice
[03:19] <kupesoft> Flannel: I just installed generic in place of server for module/driver support, in case you missed that
[03:19] <Flannel> xtknight: ah, yeah, if theres hardware that the server kernel leaves out, yeah, use generi
[03:19] <volcom> anyone? Sound Blaster Audigy card on edgy 6.10 randomly works and mostly doesn't wrk
[03:19] <LjL> ljlolel: uhm, why would you make a device out of it, if you don't want to mount it?
[03:19] <Flannel> kupesoft: make sure you remove the ubuntu-server (and linux-image-server, and uh, linux-restricted-server, or watever) after you've swapped kernels
[03:19] <ljlolel> LjL I 'm running another script that requires as input a device and not a mounted drive
[03:19] <Flannel> kupesoft: or you'll keep getting updates for both -generic and -esrver kernels
[03:19] <kupesoft> Flannel: I'll keep it in case I need it,
[03:20] <mark_> Hi there. I have acquired a TV tuner card that I have put into my Edgy PC. I've spent hours trying to find out how to get it to go. Can anyonehelp?
[03:20] <kupesoft> Flannel: Does it matter?
[03:20] <LjL> ljlolel: and if you just give it the ISO file as input, it complains at you?
[03:20] <Flannel> kupesoft: keep the kernel, don't keep the meta packages.
[03:20] <kupesoft> xtnkight: I missed grubs timeout, heh
[03:20] <ljlolel> LjL it ignores the iso
[03:21] <Cin> The script will need to copy the DRI Xorg driver modules to your Xorg directories.
[03:21] <Cin> Xorg Dir         : /usr/X11R6
[03:21] <Cin> is that wrong?
[03:21] <deafboy> how does anyone know when xdvdshrink is working? it has no progress report?
[03:21] <Cin> what is it, etc/X11 ?
[03:21] <kupesoft> xtknight: boom!
[03:21] <kupesoft> xtknight: Thanks (=
[03:21] <li> Hello
[03:21] <Cin> ho ho ho
[03:22] <xtknight> Cin i think /usr/X11R6 is right
[03:22] <LjL> ljlolel: perhaps have a look at nbd-client and nbd-server
[03:22] <Cin> oki coki, let's hope for the best
[03:22] <li> I am new here. What is the topic?
[03:22] <kupesoft> xtknight, Flannel: It worked!  What meta-package should I erase?
[03:22] <xtknight> kupesoft, not sure about all the nomenclature
[03:23] <Flannel> kupesoft: let me check
[03:23] <kupesoft> Flannel: thanks,
[03:23] <xtknight> "linux-image-server" i think...or is it "linux-server"
[03:23] <xtknight> but definitely not any package with a version num on it
[03:23] <Flannel> kupesoft: linux-server and linux-image-server (but not the linux-[version] -server if you want to keep the kernel itself)
[03:24] <Cin> "Compiling... ERROR: Kernel modules did not compile. The DRI drivers can not be installed without the latest kernel modules. Installation will be aborted. See the dri.log file for information on what went wrong." here's what went wrong: "Makefile:173: *** Cannot find a kernel config file. Stop."
[03:24] <Cin> what do I need?
[03:24] <xtknight> rather offtopic from kupesoft's question, but what is the name of that program that makes pseudo or meta packages?
[03:24] <jriffle> can someone point me to a howto to get my hp laptop w/ nvidia graphics out of 1024 x 768 to 1200x800 (its not listed as an option in the screen resolution utility)
[03:25] <xtknight> Cin, sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-`uname -r`
[03:25] <clbrown> in 6.10 install step 5, I should be able to choose "/" as a partition on a slave HDD, right?
[03:25] <Cin> oh, god. I've seen that commandline before and experienced pain, I'm sure of it
[03:25] <chance1101> Where can i get additional smiles for gaim
[03:25] <xtknight> Cin, lol
[03:25] <Flannel> xtknight: as far as the package managers are concerned, metapackages are identical to regular packages.  So, the normal deb creation stuff.  You just feed it no files for the package, and only depends
[03:25] <Brady_M> anyone have a QuickCam Orbit
[03:25] <XNIT-01> is there any kind of hosting that isn't connection dependent?
[03:25] <XNIT-01> such as ventrillo?
[03:26] <Brady_M> I need help
[03:26] <xtknight> Flannel, i remember there was some special utility for strictly meta packages.  cant remember the name
[03:26] <Cin> xtknight, it appears to be installing, hurrah!
[03:26] <reima> jriffle, you could try editing your /etc/X11/xorg.conf by hand
[03:26] <xtknight> Flannel, it just made deb packages with only a "Depends" field
[03:26] <xtknight> Cin, youre compiling latest intel drivers right?
[03:26] <trev__> ok, my last synaptoc update failed so now minimised applications disipear, is there a way to force ubuntu to repeat the last update?
[03:26] <Cin> xtknight, attempting to, yeah
[03:26] <xtknight> Cin, congrats for undertaking that
[03:27] <jriffle> reima: i don't know that much, just installed ubuntu today so i'm trying to find how to, but get overload of info on google and none that targets the issue
[03:27] <Cin> er, thanks
[03:27] <Cin> :P
[03:27] <chance1101> Anyone?
[03:27] <reima> jriffle, there should be a how-to somewhere, just a second
[03:27] <Flannel> clbrown: yes.  Let me try and figure out/find/remember the workaround
[03:27] <xtknight> chance1101, try #gaim maybe
[03:27] <Jambon> ok
[03:28] <kupesoft> Flannel: What will uninstalling them do?
[03:28] <xtknight> trev_, minimized apps disappear?  what do you mean?
[03:28] <xtknight> trev_, did you just remove your gnome taskbar panel?
[03:28] <Jambon> f-spot crashes whevenever I use it, picasa won't install, and I can't find the camera as a mass storrage device. what on earth do i do?
[03:28] <clbrown> Flannel:  asking for more details?  or you understand the problem?
[03:28] <trev__> xknight:they don't appear on the bottom toolbar in gnome
[03:28] <trev__> xknight:im pretty sure it was the failed update
[03:28] <Jambon> and this is feisty, but their channel is asleep
[03:28] <Flannel> clbrown: no, I understand it.  We've seen it before.  I just don't remember/knwo where to find the workaround.
[03:29] <xtknight> kupesoft, it will prevent further updates.  the packages tied to a specific version number such as <IP_ADDRESS> (example) will not be bothered when <IP_ADDRESS> comes out because it is not an update to the <IP_ADDRESS> branch.  but to packages like "linux" (another example) that always points to the latest, it will bother you about updates
[03:29] <Cin> xtknight, wish me luck, you old bean!
[03:29] <clbrown> flannel:  i'm searching forums right now.
[03:29] <xtknight> godspeed, Cin
[03:29] <li> What version of Ubuntu do you use?
[03:29] <kupesoft> xtknight: Why don't I want the latest?
[03:30] <Flannel> clbrown: apparently removing and recreating that partition fixes it.
[03:30] <xtknight> kupesoft, you dont want updates to server because youre not using it ;)
[03:30] <xtknight> kupesoft, youll get updates to generic
[03:30] <trev__> does anyone know how to make ubuntu undo the last update?
[03:30] <XNIT-01> is there anything I can host to rake in a little bit of money to upgrade my network with 2.5 download and .4 upload ?
[03:30] <kupesoft> xtknight: Okay, gotcha
[03:30] <li> it cannot undo
[03:30] <xtknight> trev_, im not aware of a way to reinstall the latest batch of updates.  but if you know a specific erroneous package we can reinstall it.  you may be able to look at logs
[03:30] <kupesoft> xtknight: But I'm'a keep the old kernel, just in case.
[03:30] <clbrown> flannel:  ok, thanks
[03:30] <bruenig> trev_, what did you update
[03:30] <kupesoft> xtknight: Now the hard part begins.  Turning the server in to a wireless router!
[03:30] <xtknight> kupesoft, correct.  you are only shunning updates for the -server kernel
[03:30] <slyfox> Anyone here knwos how to use mobile phone tools ?
[03:30] <chance1101> Is their anything for wine to make it play Flight Simulator?
[03:30] <Flannel> clbrown: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdgyReleaseNotes#head-7348aa0831ef34256bdd066d1d9a1d112a4afa50  fourth one down
[03:31] <trev__> bruenig:just the update managers routine update
[03:31] <Flannel> chance1101: you might try asking in #winehq
[03:31] <chance1101> my lord
[03:31] <kupesoft> xtknight, Flannel: thanks for you time and help
[03:31] <bruenig> trev_, right, but to undo an update, there isn't some button you press. You need to know what you updated exactly to remove them and get the previous versions
[03:31] <xtknight> trev_, cat /var/log/dpkg.log   and post to pastebin.  we may be able to help recognize the latest updates
[03:32] <trev__> i think it is the package gnome-applet
[03:32] <li> Installing a previous package may cause problems, I am afraid.
[03:32] <trev__> that is what got hung up and would install
[03:32] <Galdunn> Hello I need help ;")
[03:32] <lhedrick> Hello,  I have a need for a software RAID 5 server.  Would like to use UBUNTU server.  After install there is no mkraid.  Can't find the packages I need to build a raid server.  Any help getting started would be great.
[03:32] <xtknight> trev_, sudo aptitude install gnome-applet=desired-version-string
[03:32] <xtknight> trev_, but i really dont recommend it
[03:32] <Flannel> !raid | lhedrick
[03:32] <ubotu> lhedrick: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[03:32] <Galdunn> When 'preparing mount points' during the installation, it won't let me move forward
[03:33] <juano__> Galdunn:
[03:33] <bruenig> who was the person asking about xdvdshrink
[03:33] <juano__> Galdunn: is this at boot time?
[03:33] <Galdunn> screen shot:  http://img182.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotgb6.png
[03:33] <Flannel> Galdunn: does it give you any errors or anything?
[03:33] <Galdunn> No
[03:33] <li> I have a question. Some engineering software cannot be installed under Ubuntu.
[03:33] <Galdunn> I selected which mounts, but the forward button is disabled
[03:33] <xtknight> trev_, what i suggest is `sudo dpkg --purge gnome-applet ; sudo apt-get --reinstall install gnome-applet`
[03:33] <Jambon> anyone know where i'd find my camera if it doesn't show up as a mass storage device?
[03:33] <li> But they work well under RHEL4 or the like.
[03:33] <xtknight> Jambon, camera or SD card?
[03:33] <Flannel> li: if they work under other linuxes, they can work under ubuntu
[03:33] <torrrrrrrrrr> hi
[03:34] <torrrrrrrrrr> which FTP server should I use?
[03:34] <trev__> i think that synaptic is fixing it, it told me to run dpkg --configure -a
[03:34] <xtknight> hmm
[03:34] <trev__> and now its reinstalling gnome applet
[03:34] <li> I want to install Cadence ic5141, but some errors with glibc, libx happens.
[03:34] <bruenig> torrrrrrrrrr, you should use a torrent if you are talking about getting an ubuntu iso
[03:34] <xtknight> well, sounds good
[03:34] <CyberCo2> does anyone know how to lock down panel configuration so it cannot be changed by user?  setting up desktop for a child
[03:34] <bruenig> oops
[03:34] <Galdunn> Anyone know why I can' click Forward?  http://img182.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotgb6.png
[03:34] <li> It depends on glibc 2.3, but edgy has glibc 2.4
[03:34] <li> So they cannot work properly.
[03:35] <xtknight> li, place glibc 2.3 in its working directory
[03:35] <Flannel> torrrrrrrrrr: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/serverguide/C/ftp-server.html recommends vsftpd, but it depends on what you want to use it for, really.
[03:35] <li> RHEL4 and Debian both can work
[03:35] <torrrrrrrrrr> bruening: no I am talking about installing ftp server
[03:35] <li> Ok, then libx depends on glibc 2.4
[03:35] <LjL> li: actually i see edgy having 2.3, not 2.4
[03:35] <li> and libx could not work now
[03:35] <Jambon> xtknight: camera with an sd card. it normally always shows up as mass storage under windows. but now since f-spot crashes whenever i use it and picasa won't install i'm kinda out of ideas on how to get my &&^%ing pictures of my camera
[03:35] <torrrrrrrrrr> Flannel: I want to use it for a small business that transfer files with its clients
[03:36] <torrrrrrrrrr> Flannel: in the graphics indestry
[03:36] <CyberCo2> are there certain files I could make read-only to accomplish this?
[03:36] <latinoguy> hi everyone
[03:36] <Flannel> torrrrrrrrrr: this is anonymouse ftp? or what?
[03:36] <li> It is Version: 2.4-1ubuntu12.3
[03:36] <MonstarMike> hello all, I am trying to add a second hard drive to my system.  I've got installed and mounted in /mnt/HDD2, but it is not showing up in the list of mounted of devices
[03:36] <torrrrrrrrrr> Flannel: manly not anonymous
[03:36] <xtknight> li: what package name exactly
[03:37] <li> libc6
[03:37] <latinoguy> i installed the ati software and i can see it in aplications/accesories
[03:37] <^YHN7ujm8> Hello everyone!  Does anyone know how to compile the linux-restricted-modules package for a kernel other than what is available?
[03:37] <Flannel> torrrrrrrrrr: do you want them to be real users on the system? or just ftp users?
[03:37] <torrrrrrrrrr> Flannel: just on the FTP
[03:37] <latinoguy> but when i opened it says "Driver does not provide the Fire GL extensions X11
[03:38] <xtknight> li: what is the software reporting exactly?  this is an installation error or a runtime error?
[03:38] <Cin> haha, since trying to install the 915 drivers I've actually regressed! direct rendering is no longer available
[03:38] <latinoguy> does someone knows how to fix that
[03:38] <xtknight> Cin lol
[03:38] <Cin> what good fun
[03:38] <CyberCo2> latinoguy  what card?
[03:38] <latinoguy> i just want to activate 3d support
[03:38] <Cin> latinoguy, who doesn't
[03:38] <volcom> anybody know why this card isn't giving me any audio: 01:01.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy (rev 04)
[03:38] <latinoguy> ati radeon 9250
[03:38] <trev_> thankyou everyone everything is fine now
[03:38] <juano__> !ati | latinoguy:
[03:38] <ubotu> latinoguy:: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:38] <Flannel> torrrrrrrrrr: alright, vsftpd is probably not what you want then. you probably want proftpd
[03:39] <MonstarMike> is there any way to have a second hard drive show up in the mounted devices list?
[03:39] <latinoguy> yeap is an ati card
[03:39] <CyberCo2> latinoguy  3d is better with opensource for that card... believe me, I installed one last week
[03:39] <Cin> xtknight, it did all the compiling, and then had some stupid error on trying to install
[03:39] <latinoguy> and how i can do that
[03:39] <kupesoft> Why do I have ath0 AND wifi0 for the same wireless card
[03:39] <slyfox> Anyone here knwos how to use mobile phone tools ?
[03:39] <latinoguy> so do i have to uninstall the ati software?
[03:40] <CyberCo2> latinoguy you change the driver to "radeon" in xorg.conf
[03:40] <latinoguy> thanns cyberco2
[03:40] <MonstarMike> is there a howto to installing a second hard drive to an ubuntu system?
[03:40] <CyberCo2> latinoguy do you plan on using the tvout function?
[03:40] <latinoguy> i just want to learn how to do it
[03:41] <Galdunn> Can somebody help me please?
[03:41] <latinoguy> im teaching a group of teenagers how to use linux
[03:41] <Galdunn> Anyone know why I can' click Forward?  http://img182.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotgb6.png
[03:41] <li> Just install it.
[03:41] <CyberCo2> check out the "untested" page below, i wrote it last week
[03:41] <CyberCo2> !tvout
[03:41] <ubotu> For help with enabling the TV-Out, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaTVOutNewbieEdition (Nvidia cards) or http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Tvout (ATI cards, *untested*)
[03:41] <li> and it works.
[03:41] <latinoguy> and want to learn as much as i can
[03:41] <li> Or do mean mount?
[03:42] <Flannel> MonstarMike: I see this one : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingANewHardDrive  haven't read it personally though
[03:42] <CyberCo2> latinoguy that wiki article was written using a 9250
[03:42] <MonstarMike> Flannel, thanks, I'll check that out
[03:42] <xtknight> Galdunn, did you choose mount points for the other entries?
[03:42] <latinoguy> where is the link?
[03:42] <CyberCo2> MonstarMike, do you have it mounted in fstab?
[03:42] <latinoguy> cyberco2
[03:43] <CyberCo2> !tvout | latinoguy
[03:43] <ubotu> latinoguy: For help with enabling the TV-Out, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaTVOutNewbieEdition (Nvidia cards) or http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Tvout (ATI cards, *untested*)
[03:43] <Galdunn> I tried using up all the entries
[03:43] <Galdunn> it won't let me click the forward button
[03:43] <latinoguy> i dont need tv out
[03:43] <Cin> yeah, ANY forum post that tells you how to install 915 Intel drivers would be great appreciated
[03:43] <latinoguy> i want to try beryl
[03:43] <MonstarMike> CyberCo2, I have it mounted through fstab to /mnt/HDD2
[03:43] <juano__> latinoguy: join beryl and see www.beryl-project.org
[03:43] <CyberCo2> latinoguy, ok, sorry, then just  sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change from "fglrx" in the driver section to "radeon"
[03:44] <Flannel> MonstarMike: basically, just format it (however you'd like) and then pick your mount points, then add them to fstab so they get mounted each bootup
[03:44] <CyberCo2> MonstarMike.... try changing the folder you've got it mounted to
[03:44] <MonstarMike> Flannel, that is what I did
[03:44] <latinoguy> ok let me try it
[03:44] <Flannel> MonstarMike: had problems with it
[03:44] <Flannel> ?
[03:44] <MonstarMike> CyberCo2, I've been changing it between /media/HDD2
[03:45] <alanhaggai> I have set up a Webserver in my Ubuntu PC. It is working perfectly, except for me. Whenever I give the IP address, I get the page: 'Unable to Connect'. Why is it so?
[03:45] <MonstarMike> Flannel, well the problem is that I would like to have the mount show up in the places list like you would if you had a CD installed
[03:45] <canadianman> how do i install nvidia kernel drivers
[03:45] <CyberCo2> monstarmike, its a stupid question, but it is formatted right? does it show up in gparted?
[03:46] <MonstarMike> Flannel, I have three samba shares mounted from fstab that have mount points in the /mnt
[03:46] <Flannel> MonstarMike: ah.  Hmm, I imagine that's doable.  Not needing to remount, but needing to config places menu.  I think stuff in /media/ might automatically show up in places
[03:46] <CyberCo2> monstarmike also, do you have permissions to see that folder where you mounted it? have you looked in there in root mode?
[03:46] <slyfox> MonstarMike: what do you need with samba mounting, maybe I can help
[03:46] <latinoguy> i dont see fglrx
[03:47] <MonstarMike> Flannel, the samba shares sit in /mnt and show up in the places menu, as well as my ISOs that I mount in the /media directory
[03:47] <latinoguy> how can i do a copy paste
[03:47] <cablesm102> I just compiled Audacity from source, and I'm not sure where to put the executable. Where's a good place to put it?
[03:47] <CyberCo2> latinoguy what does it say down under the Device section?  next to Driver
[03:47] <CyberCo2> !pastebin |latinoguy
[03:47] <ubotu> latinoguy: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:47] <MonstarMike> slyfox, thanks for the offer.  I don't have samba issues.  I was just referring to how when I mount my shares they show up in the places menu
[03:47] <cablesm102> MonstarMike, i can help you
[03:47] <joebIII> cablesm102, make install will put it the right place.
[03:48] <canadianman> how do i fix Error: unable to load nvidia kernel driver! Be sure to have installed
[03:48] <canadianman> the nvidia driver for your running kernel.
[03:48] <cablesm102> joeblll, it didn't put it anywhere.
[03:48] <kairu0> cablesm102, put everything in a folder called /usr/share/audacity, then make a link from /usr/share/audacity/audacity to /usr/bin/audacity
[03:48] <^YHN7ujm8> Anybody know how to compile the restricted modules for a different kernel?
[03:48] <cablesm102> MonstarMike, there's an Ubuntu Wiki page on that, I'll help you with that in a sec
[03:48] <latinoguy> ok i will do a copy past hold on
[03:48] <cablesm102> kairu0, thanks
[03:48] <MonstarMike> cablesm102 thanks
[03:48] <slyfox> MonstarMike: you mean System Menu - storage places ?
[03:49] <cablesm102> MonstarMike, private chat?
[03:49] <alanhaggai> I have set up a Webserver in my Ubuntu PC. It is working perfectly, except for me. Whenever I give the IP address, I get the page: 'Unable to Connect'. Why is it so?
[03:49] <MonstarMike> slyfox, no the Places menu next to application
[03:49] <CyberCo2> alanhaggai  perhaps you need to use your internal network IP instead of public one
[03:50] <XNIT-01> is there a command to install apache web server?
[03:50] <latinoguy> this is my copy paste CyberCo2 thanks for your help http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/3166/
[03:50] <CyberCo2> latinoguy looking... one moment
[03:50] <eternalswd> xnit-01, sudo apt-get install apache?
[03:50] <Flannel> XNIT-01: sudo apt-get install apache2
[03:50] <XNIT-01> thanks
[03:50] <slyfox> MonstarMike: oops, soory I was thikning KDE for a moment, you are Ubuntu. I use Kubuntu
[03:50] <alanhaggai> CyberCo2: Localhost is working perfectly. It is only the public one that is not taking me anywhere. Is it because of any particular settings in Ubuntu?
[03:50] <lskd-120> canadian, I had the same problem earlier in the week
[03:50] <MonstarMike> slyfox, no prob
[03:51] <cablesm102> MonstarMike, my IRC prog just crashed
[03:51] <CyberCo2> i dunno.. i dont use it... i was just encountering some lan related problems the other day
[03:51] <Cin> is there a way I can do a sort of re-install of Ubuntu without a CD? just to sort of start a fresh with no errors?
[03:51] <canadianman> lsk-120 how did you fix it?
[03:51] <alanhaggai> Ok.
[03:51] <Cin> I've got half-installed drivers all over the place
[03:51] <XNIT-01> ubuntu server is the same as ubuntu desktop but ubuntu desktop has a GUI, right?
[03:51] <latinoguy> CyberCo2 in driver says ati
[03:52] <clbrown> flannel:  what is the best file system to choose for my install?  I think I've always used reiser with suse.  the default came up with ext3.  any suggestions?
[03:52] <CyberCo2> latinoguy  on the pastebin page, line 95... says Driver    "ati"    change "ati" to "radeon"
[03:52] <EnsignRedshirt> XNIT-01: I think the kernel is different, too.
[03:52] <lskd-120> I have the I removed the beryl and used the script they post at their website to reinstall
[03:52] <latinoguy> identifier say generic video card
[03:52] <latinoguy> just that?
[03:52] <CyberCo2> then ctrl+alt+backspace
[03:52] <eternalswd> Cin, what do you mean half-installed drivers? either they're installed or their not
[03:52] <CyberCo2> yep just that
[03:52] <XNIT-01> ok i think it's done installing apache
[03:52] <latinoguy> and then what else do i have to do?
[03:52] <XNIT-01> where do i access the folder that everybody else sees?
[03:52] <Cin> eteranalswd, ho ho ho, that's what you might think
[03:53] <Flannel> XNIT-01: /var/www
[03:53] <lskd-120> canadianman, It's real slick
[03:53] <latinoguy> just change ati to radeon?
[03:53] <lskd-120> check it out
[03:53] <eternalswd> Cin, are you in Ubuntu right now, if so then the drivers can hardly be half installed otherwise it wouldn't boot
[03:53] <CyberCo2> ctrl alt backspace to restart x server... yeah, you're already using the open source driver... changing it to "radeon" activates a few radeon specific tweaks to the open source driver
[03:53] <latinoguy> and what about the identifier "generic video card" do i have to change it
[03:54] <CyberCo2> no, don't change anything else
[03:54] <XNIT-01> thanks
[03:54] <latinoguy> ok i will do that
[03:54] <latinoguy> and what about the ati control panel that is in aplications menu
[03:54] <XNIT-01> so
[03:54] <CyberCo2> latinoguy, its useless
[03:54] <Cin> eternalswd, I got the 915DRI drivers from dri.freedesktop.org to install them. compiled, and then copied a few bits, and then failed on some of them. so now I've actually regressed from 300fps driver that sort of worked, a bit. to some (perhaps back) driver that only gets 100fps on glxgears
[03:54] <XNIT-01> if i tell somebody else my IP, they can access my folder?
[03:55] <Flannel> XNIT-01: unless you have a router, yeah.  (or if you have a router, and you've forwarded the correct port (80), then they can)
[03:55] <LjL> XNIT-01: your IP is <IP_ADDRESS>, and if you base your security on that, forget it as well
[03:55] <latinoguy> ok i will try the control alt backspace
[03:55] <LjL> XNIT-01: so no - hopefully
[03:55] <XNIT-01> uh
[03:55] <eternalswd> Cin, okay, so this is a video card issue?
[03:55] <latinoguy> i will try to conect again if everything goes fine
[03:55] <CyberCo2> make sure you save the file
[03:55] <XNIT-01> i need security?
[03:55] <XNIT-01> lol
[03:55] <Cin> eternalswd, indeed
[03:56] <eternalswd> Cin, what type?
[03:56] <XNIT-01> how do i turn off apache lol, i have no security xd
[03:56] <DeeRawzzz> Real Quick: I'm running Ubuntu off of a CD; Is that why I can't change my background or is there just something wrong with me?
[03:56] <LjL> XNIT-01: ubuntu should be relatively secure by default, that's of course if you don't enable weird stuff like folder sharing and give the world access to it
[03:56] <Cin> eternalswd, Intel 915G blah
[03:56] <XNIT-01> ok
[03:56] <LjL> XNIT-01: sudo update-rc.d apache2 remove
[03:56] <XNIT-01> why should i remove it?
[03:56] <LjL> Ubotu, tell XNIT-01 about firewall | XNIT-01, see the private message from Ubotu
[03:56] <LjL> XNIT-01: you just asked
[03:56] <XNIT-01> can't they just see whatever i put on there
[03:56] <XNIT-01> oh , lol, sorry, thanks
[03:56] <CyberCo2> DeeRawwzzz never had any problems changing it in a live disk
[03:57] <XNIT-01> by the way, can people just see what i put on apache at this point
[03:57] <XNIT-01> or can they access my computer through it
[03:57] <Cin> eternalswd, here we are. Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML
[03:57] <Flannel> XNIT-01: yes.  No, they can't access your computer through it.  Yes, they can view your webfolder
[03:57] <latinoguy> thanks for your help to CyberyCo2
[03:57] <latinoguy> be right back
[03:57] <XNIT-01> flannel, can you see it?
[03:57] <DeeRawzzz> Hmm, ok, I'll play around a bit. Thank you CyberCo
[03:57] <LjL> XNIT-01: if it's decently configured, and if you keep up on security updates, they'll only access your web directory
[03:57] <XNIT-01> go to my ip =D
[03:57] <Flannel> XNIT-01: I can.  You have nothing in there.
[03:57] <CyberCo2> latinoguy go into terminal and type    glxgears -printfps
[03:57] <XNIT-01> hehe this is so cool
[03:57] <XNIT-01> lol
[03:58] <CyberCo2> if it works you have 3d support
[03:58] <XNIT-01> i hope my web company doesn't sue me
[03:58] <eternalswd> Cin, did you use checkinstall or just make install?

[03:58] <oidia> ...
[03:59] <Cin> eternalswd, I'm not sure what it used. it's some automatic install script that compiles and copies over for you
[03:59] <Cin> eternalswd, one of these: http://dri.freedesktop.org/snapshots/
[03:59] <tonyyarusso> was that all one guy?
[03:59] <craigbass1976> Hey guys, I'm stuck in 640x480 and I can't ssh into the box frm away.  I installed ssh and started up the server
[03:59] <clbrown> anyone:  is there an obvious best choice for the filesystem format to choose for installation?
[03:59] <rob> tonyyarusso: yes
[03:59] <rob> got him
[03:59] <tonyyarusso> k
[03:59] <chance1101> wow
[03:59] <Cin> eternalswd, I used i915-20060403-linux.i386.tar.bz2
[03:59] <chance1101> what happend
[03:59] <XNIT-01> is there a way to buy a domain for like $4 and have this computer run it instead of my IP?
[03:59] <XNIT-01> i can't wait for my cisco equipment and p4 servers to come in
[03:59] <XNIT-01> this is so fun =D
[04:00] <Flannel> XNIT-01: check out dyndns
[04:00] <EnsignRedshirt> craigbass1976: Is your question about being stuck in 640x480, or about ssh?
[04:00] <XNIT-01> their site won't load =(
[04:00] <craigbass1976> both.  How bout ssh first
[04:00] <XNIT-01> i don't mind spending $4 on a .com, i just want to know if my computer can host it though
[04:00] <volcom> holy hell, if someone can help me trouble shoot my audio problem i'd be obliged to add them to an mp3 site i run
[04:01] <wastrel> hi, if i create a .deb with checkinstall, can i install it on a different machine than the one i built it on?
[04:01] <Flannel> XNIT-01: er, it's probably against your TOS, and isn't too feasible with a dynamic IP
[04:01] <foufou> how can i install glade-3 on dapper ?
[04:01] <volcom> sound blaster audigy card
[04:01] <craigbass1976> EnsignRedshirt, both, but how about ssh first
[04:01] <XNIT-01> what if i use a site like no-ip and direct it to my no-ip
[04:01] <XNIT-01> yea.. it is probably against my TOS, forget it
[04:02] <latinoguy> ok im back
[04:02] <CyberCo2> volcom what is the problem?
[04:02] <EnsignRedshirt> craigbass1976: First, the basics: is sshd running?  (It should be if you have the ssh server package installed.)
[04:02] <CyberCo2> latinoguy any luck?
[04:02] <latinoguy> CyberCo2 thanks im back
[04:02] <XNIT-01> atleast if i get ddosed i can just shut down the server fast
[04:02] <XNIT-01> lol
[04:02] <volcom> cyberco2: i just switched from gentoo -> ubuntu and for some reason
[04:02] <XNIT-01> with my dynamice ip xd
[04:02] <latinoguy> dont notice any difference
[04:02] <volcom> i have no sound
[04:02] <volcom> i had it when i started but after i installed some nvidia drivers
[04:02] <craigbass1976> It says ok when I /etc/init.d/ssh start or restart
[04:03] <craigbass1976> EnsignRedshirt, It says ok when I /etc/init.d/ssh start or restart
[04:03] <volcom> i no longer have sound
[04:03] <Cin> eternalswd, the compilation appear to be fine, I have the log of that. no errors.
[04:03] <latinoguy> it is supose that my 3d support is activated
[04:03] <kidstar64> hello, i log in ass root but i cannot change the drive ownership, i want to write to the drive but i cant?
[04:03] <craigbass1976> EnsignRedshirt, there is no /var/log/secure though, which seems odd
[04:03] <task0> hello, how can i make ubuntu to detect my monitor refresh rate?!
[04:03] <CyberCo2> volcom does your motherboard have an onboard sound chip?
[04:03] <latinoguy> but im not sure
[04:03] <volcom> yes cyberco2
[04:03] <eternalswd> Cin, did you use sudo to run the script?
[04:03] <volcom> hold on
[04:03] <volcom> dmesg reports no errors
[04:03] <Cin> eternalswd, yes I did
[04:03] <volcom> 01:01.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy (rev 04)
[04:03] <CyberCo2> latinoguy, if you saw gears moving you got 3d
[04:03] <kidstar64> hello, i log in as root but i cannot change the drive ownership, i want to write to the drive but i cant?
[04:04] <latinoguy> gears like what??
[04:04] <volcom> i already put emu10k1 into /etc/modules and have modprobed it manually
[04:04] <volcom> still no luck though
[04:04] <CyberCo2> and there wouldn't be a difference in normal operation, that is 2d... in terminal type glxgears -printfps
[04:04] <Cin> latinoguy, cogs
[04:04] <Cin> latinoguy, like in a clock
[04:04] <EnsignRedshirt> craigbass1976: I have no /var/log/secure, either, and I can ssh into my computer from within my local (home) network.
[04:04] <CyberCo2> volcom   make sure onboard is turned off in bios if that is possible
[04:04] <latinoguy> aaaaaa ok sorry for that
[04:04] <kidstar64> hello, i log in as root but i cannot change the drive ownership, i want to write to the drive but i cant?
[04:04] <volcom> gotta boot into bios ?
[04:04] <latinoguy> im form mexico some words are not vary familiar for me
[04:04] <eternalswd> Cin, do you have a log of the errors that did occur?
[04:05] <cablesm102> latinoguy, try #ubuntu-es
[04:05] <craigbass1976> EnsignRedshirt, ok, any other reasons you can think of why it's not accepting logins?
[04:05] <CyberCo2> volcom otherwise, you'll need to make sure to choose the audigy as the default sound card
[04:05] <volcom> alright how do i do that first
[04:05] <Cin> eternalswd, no, unfortunatley it didn't output it to any file
[04:05] <cablesm102> I compiled Audacity from source, but i'm not sure where to put the executable. Someone helped me, but then my IRC client crashed...
[04:05] <latinoguy> thanks a lot cablesm102
[04:05] <kidstar64> SO CAN ANYONE HELP ME
[04:05] <volcom> because it randomly boots
[04:05] <volcom> with sound
[04:05] <kidstar64> sry,caps
[04:05] <latinoguy> but i like to learn in english too
[04:05] <cablesm102> kidstar64, what's the problem you're having
[04:05] <latinoguy> im learnig linux
[04:05] <volcom> i've rebooted 10-15 times and 2 times i've had sound
[04:05] <eternalswd> Cin, are the errors still visible on your terminal?
[04:05] <cablesm102> latinoguy, then stay here :)
[04:05] <latinoguy> and englsih too
[04:06] <kidstar64> i log in as root but i cannot change the drive ownership, i want to write to the drive but i cant?
[04:06] <CyberCo2> volcom     System >Preferences> Sound
[04:06] <cablesm102> latinoguy, i know a tiny bit of spanish...
[04:06] <latinoguy> i apreciete your help
[04:06] <latinoguy> lol
[04:06] <XNIT-01> are ventrillo servers in the ubuntu repositroy by any chance?
[04:06] <XNIT-01> repository*
[04:06] <latinoguy> how can you do that that you put my name in red
[04:06] <volcom> oh ok
[04:06] <cablesm102> XNIT-01, why don't you check?
[04:06] <volcom> default sound card was on the onboard sound
[04:06] <CyberCo2> latinoguy   no problem
[04:06] <craigbass1976> EnsignRedshirt, I'll figure itout later.  Gotta go.
[04:06] <cablesm102> latinoguy, it just happens when i mention your name
[04:06] <volcom> i switched it to the audigy sound blaster
[04:06] <volcom> should i reboot
[04:06] <EnsignRedshirt> craigbass1976: OK
[04:06] <volcom> nvm
[04:06] <volcom> sound works
[04:06] <latinoguy> but frist or last
[04:07] <Cin> eternalswd, I did it in TTY2, it clears the screen for each stage, so it cleared the errors. I am _hoping_ that it mearly moves the cursor down and I can scroll upwards. if I can figure out how to scroll upwards
[04:07] <kidstar64> i log in as root but i cannot change the drive ownership, i want to write to the drive but i cant?
[04:07] <CyberCo2> volcom no, just test your sound, and make sure to set the volume icon to associate with the audigy as well
[04:07] <foufou> how can i install glade-3 on dapper ?
[04:07] <tamacracka> ughhh i wanna boot this person offline, he's spamming racism (><)
[04:07] <cablesm102> tamacracka, you've been asking about this for over an hour
[04:07] <latinoguy> cablesm102 i want to install beryl just for educational propuses
[04:07] <volcom> CyberCo2: check your pm
[04:07] <latinoguy> is it easy or hard?
[04:07] <cablesm102> tamacracka, this is an UBUNTU support chatroom.
[04:07] <CyberCo2> latinoguy do not put beryl on that video card
[04:07] <kidstar64> i log in as root but i cannot change the drive ownership, i want to write to the drive but i cant?
[04:07] <tamacracka> exactly.
[04:07] <pbureau> hello to all is there an app to install RPM packages on ubuntu ?
[04:08] <Flannel> !alien | pbureau
[04:08] <ubotu> pbureau: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu does not use RPM, but !APT, and RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[04:08] <tamacracka> support the anti-idiot trolls who annoy ubuntu users :P
[04:08] <matthe1> help!  i accidentally deleted menu.lst somehow.  Can someone point me to a grub menu.lst template so I can fill a new one in?   There are instructions for edgy here. I can help on some things if you need it.
[04:08] <kidstar64> yea
[04:08] <cablesm102> latinoguy, here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BerylOnEdgy
[04:08] <shifty> how i put gaim on startup
[04:08] <CyberCo2> volcom i got no PM

[04:09] <Cin> eternalswd, heh, doesn't seem to support scrolling. there's no chance I'm getting that error message now
[04:09] <lskd-120> kidstar64, do sudo gedit /root/directory/file   and your cookin'
[04:09] <latinoguy> CyberCo2 so your recomendation is not to do it
[04:09] <volcom> cyberco2 are you on efnet
[04:09] <volcom> or somewhere that i don't have to register
[04:09] <tombow> tamacracka, nice nick :-)
[04:09] <MonstarMike> latinoguy, if you're using nvidia I suggest using their binary drivers instead of the ones in the repository
[04:09] <tamacracka> thanks :D
[04:09] <CyberCo2> latinoguy, yes don't do it unless you upgrade to an nvidia
[04:09] <latinoguy> im using radeon 9250
[04:09] <CyberCo2> volcom no, i do use yahoo
[04:10] <latinoguy> my nvida card will get pretty soon from ebay
[04:10] <tamacracka> joebill.. no one cares :\
[04:10] <Cin> eternalswd, I repeated the install to see if I could repeat the error, but then no error was displayed -- to which I thought "hurrah, something actually worked" but now direct rendering doesn't work at all, as opposed to before, where it sort of pretended to work
[04:10] <eternalswd> Cin, the script uses a logfile called dri.log
[04:10] <Cin> eternalswd, yeah, it only printed the compile output to dri.log
[04:10] <matthe1> how can I recover my grub menu.lst? I accidentally deleted it
[04:10] <CyberCo2> volcom be right back
[04:10] <Cin> eternalswd, the error log was the first thing I checked after it cleared the screen and put me back into the prompt
[04:10] <eternalswd> Cin, that's rather foolish of them not to output errors to the log, that's the most important part
[04:11] <Flannel> matthe1: grub-install
[04:11] <Flannel> matthe1: er, sorry
[04:11] <binarydigit> i somehow deleted my trash bin from the desktop, anyone know how i can get it back.... i miss it =(
[04:11] <mlalkaka> is there any tool that comes with ubuntu that allows you to view which wireless networks are in range?
[04:11] <lskd-120> matt, I could paste mine on pastebin and you can copy it and see if it works
[04:12] <binarydigit> mlalkaka: network-manager
[04:12] <Flannel> matthe1: update-grub
[04:12] <matthe1> lskd-120:  please do!  thakns
[04:12] <latinoguy> i bought and nvidia card is this one is this good for beryl? thanks Geforce FX 6200 256MB AGP
[04:12] <Cin> eternalswd, it was at the copying stage. it says "copying blah to x...copying this to that... error " and then I can't remember, I couldn't make any sense of the error which is probably why I don't remember it. i guess I should've written it down
[04:12] <matthe1> ohh ok Flannel
[04:12] <matthe1> never mind then lskd-120
[04:12] <latinoguy> sorry for my english
[04:12] <matthe1> thanks anyways
[04:12] <kidstar64> so i sudo gedit /root/directory/file but it justs opens a blank text documant
[04:12] <eternalswd> Cin, have you tried reinstalling libgl1-mesa-dri
[04:12] <cablesm102> tamacracka, you still here?
[04:12] <mlalkaka> binarydigit: do you have to install it from repositories though?
[04:12] <Cin> eternalswd, no
[04:12] <tamacracka> yeah? what's up?
[04:13] <cablesm102> someone ping tamacracka please
[04:13] <kidstar64> so i sudo gedit /root/directory/file but it justs opens a blank text documant
[04:13] <binarydigit> mlalkaka: umm i can't remember if it came with the default install
[04:13] <tamacracka> why ping me?
[04:13] <MonstarMike> latinoguy, that should be good to run beryl
[04:13] <Cin> eternalswd, how do I re-install?
[04:13] <mlalkaka> binarydigit: ok. thanks for the name of the program though
[04:13] <lskd-120> matthe1, you don't want it?  alrighty
[04:13] <binarydigit> np
[04:13] <eternalswd> Cin, go to synaptic and try marking it for reinstallation and than apply
[04:13] <kidstar64> lskd-120 so i sudo gedit /root/directory/file but it justs opens a blank text documant
[04:13] <cablesm102> nvm, i thought you were gone, but my client is acting screwy
[04:13] <latinoguy> MonstarMike thanks for your coment
[04:13] <Cin> eternalswd, oki
[04:13] <XNIT-01> why can't i execut an executable.. lol
[04:13] <matthe1> lskd-120:  No thanks, I think i got it now.  thanks anyways, I really appreciate it
[04:13] <tamacracka> yeah im not tryin to annoy anyone.
[04:14] <XNIT-01> its ventrilo_srv
[04:14] <XNIT-01> linux version
[04:14] <MonstarMike> hey when I chown in terminal will it show up immediately in nautilus?
[04:14] <lskd-120> kidstar64, you wanted to write to it?  or edit an existing file?
[04:14] <MonstarMike> latinoguy, no problem I have a similar card an it makes beryl fun!
[04:14] <Flannel> MonstarMike: relatively immediately, yeah.  You might need to refresh
[04:14] <Cin> XNIT-01, did you chmod +x the executable?
[04:14] <kidstar64> i just want to change it so i can write, change files, and copy
[04:14] <MonstarMike> Flannel thanks
[04:14] <kidstar64> all of my drives are like this
[04:14] <MonstarMike> Flannel, how to refresh?
[04:14] <eternalswd> Cin, the script says something about not running while X is running.  you could also try installing without X running and see what happens.
[04:15] <Flannel> !ntfs | kidstar64
[04:15] <ubotu> kidstar64: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions. For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[04:15] <lskd-120> kidstar64, do the same thing......... sudo gedit /root/directory_to/"that_file"   and your cookin'
[04:15] <MonstarMike> Flannel, nm found it
[04:15] <Cin> eteran, I did /etc/init.d/gdm stop and ran it from tty1
[04:15] <Cin> eternalswd,  I did /etc/init.d/gdm stop and ran it from tty1
[04:15] <Cin> eternalswd, does that stop X?
[04:15] <Flannel> lskd-120, kidstar64, no.  Not with ntfs.  You need to install those other (beta) drivers for write support on NTFS
[04:16] <sivik> Cin: try sudo killall gdm
[04:16] <eternalswd> Cin, I believe so
[04:16] <Cin> sivik, there is a chance it was running more than once?
[04:16] <eternalswd> Cin, you could try ctrl+alt+f1
[04:16] <lskd-120> oh, he's talking about ntfs.....
[04:16] <lskd-120> nevermind then
[04:16] <Cin> eternalswd, yeh, that's how I got to the tty
[04:16] <cablesm102> I just compiled Audacity from source, but I don't know where to put the executable. Someone told me a while ago, but then my computer crashed. Can anybody help me with this?
[04:16] <CyberCod> volcom you still around?
[04:17] <ivan`> has anyone used ntfs-3g on 64 bit without corruption?
[04:17] <Cin> I guess I could try killall gdm and reinstall
[04:17] <sivik> why are you trying to reinstall it, whats the problem?
[04:18] <eternalswd> Cin, okay, try reinstalling libgl1-mesa-dri then.  You should have been out of X when you ran that script
[04:18] <Cin> because after it compiles, it copies whatever it compiled over to X11 directories, one or some of them failed for reasons I couldn't understand (and don't remember)
[04:18] <Cin> eternalswd, okay
[04:18] <TheShrimp> hello, I have a problem, I found my old laptop and installed ubuntu on it, I used the alternative CD, and it took 3 hours to install on my laptop, now at the login screen it's saying I have the wrong username and password, is there anyway I can change it???

[04:20] <GMWeezel> I am trying to uninstall an application with "rpm -e" but it says it's not there and is also not listed under "rpm -qa"
[04:20] <Cin> eternalswd, okay, mesa's reinstalled (I was out of X when I ran the script as far as I know, I'll try killall gdm and re-run the script)
[04:20] <shifty> where are all the program installed in ubuntu ?
[04:20] <GionnyBoss> What does 'proposed updates' and 'backported updates' mean? I'm confused... I don't know if I should enable these checkboxes in Synaptic or not
[04:20] <cablesm102> GMWeezel, Ubuntu doesn't use RPM.
[04:20] <MonstarMike> ok this hard drive thing is really starting to piss me off
[04:20] <GMWeezel> The java installation did
[04:20] <lskd-120> shifty, what?
[04:20] <shifty> where are all the program installed in ubuntu ?
[04:20] <shifty> the folder
[04:21] <cablesm102> shifty, it depends
[04:21] <shifty> how bout gaim ?
[04:21] <MonstarMike> can anyone explain how to get the permissions right for the mount point so I can copy to it?
[04:21] <cablesm102> shifty, open terminal, do "whereis gaim"
[04:21] <Flannel> shifty: /usr/bin, but you don't need to know that to run it
[04:21] <Fjodor> shifty: What exactly do you mean?
[04:21] <lskd-120> shifty, they are scattered
[04:21] <cablesm102> shifty, open terminal, do "whereis gaim"
[04:21] <Agaliarept> Hey is there a place where I can download the cdcovers for ubuntu?
[04:21] <gezzabob> morning all
[04:21] <DOlores> dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig --- > Regenerating fonts cache... failed.  >> how can i fix this??? what is wrong ://
[04:21] <eternalswd> GMWeezel, whater rmp it was, it was probably converted to a .deb while you were installing
[04:21] <Galdunn> Ahhh
[04:21] <shifty> ok
[04:21] <Galdunn> I'm in the terminal, how do I get back to the desktop?
[04:21] <ticktock> Does crontab work in 6.10?  When I crontab -e it returns with no errors, but the job never runs.
[04:21] <shifty> cos i want it to starhub
[04:22] <GMWeezel> eternalswd: how do I remove a deb?
[04:22] <cablesm102> Galdunn, try startx
[04:22] <joebIII> MonstarMike, mount ... ..  -o uid=youruserid
[04:22] <TheShrimp> hello?
[04:22] <Fjodor> shifty: For instance, not all application data is in one folder
[04:22] <shifty> *startup
[04:22] <MonstarMike> joebIII
[04:22] <MonstarMike> joebIII, thanks
[04:22] <MonstarMike> joebIII, how do you do that in fstab?
[04:22] <cablesm102> shifty, you don't need to know that. Just put "gaim" into the box for command, and that will work
[04:22] <lskd-120> DOlores, sudo fc-cache -f -v  ..... will rebuild the cache
[04:22] <Galdunn> cablesm102, it's not doing anything now
[04:22] <eternalswd> !synaptic
[04:22] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[04:22] <Galdunn> fatal server error
[04:23] <DOlores> lskd-120, thanks!!! will try that
[04:23] <eternalswd> !synaptic | GMWeezel
[04:23] <Fjodor> shifty: What is starhub, and how did you install it?
[04:23] <ubotu> GMWeezel: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[04:23] <shifty> that's a typo Fjodor
[04:23] <cablesm102> Galdunn, then it won't start until you fix the system
[04:23] <Fjodor> shifty: nvm
[04:23] <joebIII> MonstarMike, the options are the fourth column.
[04:23] <shifty> thanks man i shall re log in and see if it workks see ya later
[04:23] <MonstarMike> joebIII, ok so add that next to defaults?
[04:23] <cablesm102> shifty, to add something to startup in System>Preferences>Session, you don't need the location. Just put "gaim" into the box. This works because /usr/bin is in your PATH.
[04:23] <joebIII> MonstarMike, defaults,uid=xxxxx
[04:24] <gezzabob> simple question where did the disk option go from the system -> administration menu it was there when i put on dapper but now go after upgrade to edgy that was a useful tool ?
[04:24] <DOlores> lskd-120, im trying to install the msttcorefonts package... must i do a dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig after?
[04:24] <eternalswd> Galdunn, have you tried reconfiguring X?
[04:24] <MonstarMike> joebIII, alright I'll do that, thanks again
[04:24] <Galdunn> I don't get what you're saying
[04:24] <Galdunn> I hit the Ctrl alt f1 thing
[04:24] <Galdunn> Now I don't know how to exit the termial
[04:24] <Galdunn> terminal*
[04:24] <Xenguy> Galdunn: Ctrl-d
[04:25] <Xenguy> Galdunn: or exit
[04:25] <eternalswd> Galdunn, were you editting your xorg.conf file?
[04:25] <lskd-120> DOlores, I don't think so, that command I gave will "register" them
[04:25] <shifty> hey one more question
[04:25] <Galdunn> No
[04:25] <gezzabob> galdunn how did you get to the terminal ?
[04:25] <Galdunn> I was installing ubuntu
[04:25] <Galdunn> lol
[04:25] <Galdunn> probably just lost my installation progress
[04:25] <GMWeezel> eternalswd: ah thanks; i could not figure out why it was not showing under synaptic but i forgot about having to refresh
[04:25] <joebIII> Galdunn, ctrl alt f7
[04:25] <ticktock> Does crontab work in 6.10?  When I crontab -e it returns with no errors, but the job never runs.
[04:25] <shifty> how do i start up gaim on startup in the background, meaning i dun want the buddylist to show.
[04:25] <Galdunn> joebIII, TY!!
[04:26] <cablesm102> shifty, unless there's a commandline option for that, you can't. I'm hoping there is, because I want that too...
[04:26] <DOlores> lskd-120, must i restart X for the effects to apply?
[04:26] <gezzabob> so galdunn are you saying you have just install ubuntu and it hasnt started a GUI just a terminal ?
[04:26] <Galdunn> nono
[04:26] <Galdunn> lol
[04:26] <MonstarMike> joebIII, that uid=xxxx gave me an error, obviously I put my username in for xxx...
[04:26] <shatrat> shifty, there might be a "gaim --minimized" option or something, go poking around in gaim documentation
[04:26] <Galdunn> I was installing ubuntu, a friend told me about the terminal [ctrl alt f1]  so I hit that
[04:26] <DOlores> lskd-120, the original fonts looked so ugly.. specially in firefox
[04:26] <lskd-120> DOlores, what is it you want to do?  I wouldn't think so, you can use them if that is what is the question
[04:27] <Galdunn> and it put me in the terminal, I didn't know how to get out until joe here told me to hit the other Ctrl command
[04:27] <eternalswd> shifty, are you using 2.0 or 1.5?
[04:27] <shifty> hey shat :)
[04:27] <cablesm102> shifty, there's a package called "devilspie" that i think may help you
[04:27] <shifty> 2.0
[04:27] <joebIII> MonstarMike, try the actual number.  find your username in /etc/passed.  The UID is the third entry.
[04:27] <Flannel> shifty, cablesm102, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=343466
[04:27] <gezzabob> ok galdunn you now have a blank screen with just the terminal and want to get back to the gui
[04:27] <lskd-120> DOlores, you can try it, if that is the trouble,
[04:27] <joebIII> MonstarMike, /etc/passwd
[04:27] <thug> shouldnt be a line " AUTHMODULES="..." in /etc/courier/imapd ?
[04:27] <stephans> azureus was dog slow and a mem hog cuz ubuntu was using some open source ver of java
[04:27] <DOlores> lskd-120, what fonts do you use?
[04:28] <Galdunn> Er, joebIII already told me how to get back to the desktop, lol
[04:28] <stephans> instad of the sun version
[04:28] <shifty> haha i really like the dawn of ubuntu wallpaper
[04:28] <crimson> how do i make a su account?
[04:28] <lskd-120> I got some ttf from a BSD web sight
[04:28] <stephans> what is this /etc/alternatives junk anyway?
[04:28] <kitche> stephans: yeah it uses gij by default ubuntu does
[04:28] <gezzabob> and what did joebIII tell you #
[04:28] <stephans> why not just use the real java?
[04:28] <Galdunn> ctrl alt f7
[04:28] <lskd-120> I'm trying those right now, I have msttcore also
[04:28] <kitche> stephans: the license that java had
[04:28] <stephans> what is gij
[04:28] <Galdunn> It worked, and I didn't loose my installation progress
[04:28] <MonstarMike> joebIII, I don't understand what this file /etc/passwd is
[04:29] <gezzabob> what did ctrl alt f7 do ?
[04:29] <stephans> man!
[04:29] <pwk> hi
[04:29] <kitche> stephans: gnu java pretty much
[04:29] <joebIII> MonstarMike,  just type " cat /etc/passwd"  The number next to your username is the uid.
[04:29] <cablesm102> thank you, Flannel
[04:29] <crimson> !su
[04:29] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:29] <pwk> i'm wondering if i can install ubntu where i got vista on my comp. now?
[04:29] <stephans> It would have save me so much trouble if that was made clear after the upgrade to egy...
[04:29] <DOlores> lskd-120, okay cool :) they still don't look as "clear" as i want them. do i need to edit xorg.conf?
[04:29] <lskd-120> don't forget to tweak the font ap in the system/preferences menu
[04:29] <groklem> I have an odd issue. I have ntfs disk that doesnt mount at boot time but does mount with 'mount -a' so fstab is ok...
[04:30] <DOlores> lskd-120, i did that though :)
[04:30] <viator> !ot
[04:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ot - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:30] <groklem> any ideas?
[04:30] <lskd-120> hold on
[04:30] <torrrrrrrrrr> hi
[04:30] <torrrrrrrrrr> how do I add OS to GRUB?
[04:31] <task0> hello, how can i change my monitor refresh rate?
[04:31] <gezzabob> Galdunn what happens when you press ctrl + alt + f7
[04:31] <shatrat> torrrrrrrrrr, you could edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst and add it.  Im sure there are GUI tools to edit it too but I dont know of any
[04:31] <viator> do you guys know of any applications for laying out floor plans in linux
[04:31] <viator> ?
[04:31] <task0> i cant move it over 60
[04:31] <Galdunn> It puts you back to the desktop
[04:31] <DOlores> lskd-120, ok
[04:31] <gezzabob> is that what you wanted Galdunn ?
[04:32] <Galdunn> Yes
[04:32] <torrrrrrrrrr> shatrat: file is OK too, but is there some command that need to be executed after the edit?
[04:32] <stephans> OK OK -- everybody. I have a great idea...
[04:32] <Cin> okay
[04:32] <Galdunn> Anyone know if XGL works for people using Parallels on OS X
[04:32] <shatrat> torrrrrrrrrr, you just have to save the list and next time you boot grub that is what you see
[04:32] <gezzabob> ok cool you can switch between the gui and several terminals with ctrl + al Fkeys have fun
[04:32] <shatrat> Galdunn, I doubt it, does parallels have hardware acceleration?
[04:32] <Cin> eternalswd, I wrote down the whole output on the terminal and typed it up
[04:32] <stephans> Lets influence Ubuntu to have a kind of welcome screen
[04:32] <gezzabob> simple question where did the disk option go from the system -> administration menu it was there when i put on dapper but now go after upgrade to edgy that was a useful tool ?
[04:32] <Cin> eternalswd, http://rafb.net/p/jWc2nq57.html
[04:33] <shatrat> stephans, What do you mean?
[04:33] <stephans> that gives you the option to install codecs and the real java etc.
[04:33] <stephans> Ala easy ubuntu
[04:33] <QwertyM> mmm, like an automatix on install
[04:33] <shatrat> gezzabob, gparted you mean?  I dont think its part of the default install in edgy
[04:33] <stephans> but with a few more options
[04:33] <shatrat> stephans, they are working on those things in Feisty Fawn
[04:33] <shifty> dawn of ubuntu wallpaper for the win!
[04:34] <stephans> i see...
[04:34] <Cin> shifty, hehe
[04:34] <QwertyM> yeah they got a meta package for all the necessary stuff in it I hear ...
[04:34] <torrrrrrrrrr> shatrat: Is there no tool to check there is no problem that grub will crash on?
[04:34] <shifty> haha, ubuntu wallpaper looks better than windozze
[04:34] <shifty> :o
[04:34] <QwertyM> windoze luna lmao sucks
[04:34] <Cin> eternalswd, I can see now why I didn't remember the error at all
[04:34] <stephans> But how about a control center like suse and Mandrake have?
[04:35] <Cin> GNOME Art has some sweet nature wallpapers
[04:35] <shifty> i have a mac skin over my windows
[04:35] <shifty> :o
[04:35] <shatrat> torrrrrrrrrr, Im sure there is a GUI tool to help you set up a new grub entry,but I dont know a name of one off the top of my head.  Try searching.  A bad grub entry isnt the end of the world though, as long as you still can boot with this one
[04:35] <QwertyM> stephans: yep thats coming for fiesty too
[04:35] <shifty> gnome art?
[04:35] <CyberCod> gezzabob  try using gksu disks-admin   or getting the disks-admin from synaptic
[04:35] <stephans> With tools to setup more thinks -- join a windows domain, see what serrvices are running
[04:35] <shatrat> stephans, theyre actually moving to something like that in feisty as well
[04:35] <stephans> ah so fistey is fistey...
[04:35] <viator> ummm like system>administration?
[04:35] <gezzabob> shatrat erm nope it wasnt gpart i know thats not default install I had to in stall that but it was a dialog that show you what disks and what partitions onthem so you could quickly enable the parttions it kinda bugging me
[04:35] <viator> heheh
[04:36] <CyberCod> gezzabob  gksu disks-admin
[04:36] <stephans> ok good i am happy then
[04:36] <QwertyM> D:
[04:36] <zero-9376> can someone help me with a cannon i560 printer
[04:36] <shifty> is there a tracert cmd in shell ?
[04:36] <viator> edgy was a bit of a letdown
[04:36] <shatrat> gezzabob, Storage Device Manager maybe?  I never used Dapper so Im not sure really
[04:36] <shifty> i mean terminal
[04:36] <shatrat> shifty, its called "traceroute" and it isnt installed by default, "sudo apt-get install traceroute"
[04:36] <lskd-120> dolores, I would use this command ( vi /var/log/Xorg.0.log ) as a guideline and edit the font section in xorg  instead of going through dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg .
[04:37] <viator> i reverted to dapper and am awaiting fiesty
[04:37] <gezzabob> ive had a look through synaptic for something like that disc program but unable to see anything like it strange i know it was there used it before when on dapper
[04:37] <CyberCod> gezzabob  i'm on dapper right now  the terminal command behind Disks is gksu disks-admin
[04:37] <felixhummel> hi
[04:37] <CyberCod> so i guess its not available for edgy
[04:37] <gezzabob> shatrat could be do you know how to involk that from edgy ?
[04:37] <shifty> thanks shat
[04:37] <felixhummel> gnomebaker doesn't show music files, when I want to create an audio cd. any suggestions?
[04:37] <DOlores> lskd-120, hm okay
[04:37] <dimeo> sounds like feisty faun is gonna have some big new features!
[04:38] <shifty> traceroute is a useful stuff
[04:38] <gezzabob> great cybercod your a star !
[04:38] <lskd-120> I might be doing it the hard way but that's just me,  I'm tired of going and editing the xserver again
[04:38] <QwertyM> dimeo: yep! D:
[04:38] <shatrat> gezzabob, the "Storage Device Manger" executable is called "psydm"
[04:38] <DOlores> lskd-120, thanks for your help. i'll try it out :)
[04:38] <torrrrrrrrrr> say what does that (hd0,0) means in GRUB?
[04:38] <shifty> oh god i have 1.3gb left in ubuntu
[04:38] <lskd-120> or you can do the -phigh variable posted at the top of the file
[04:39] <dimeo> is it a smooth upgrade from one edition to the other?  I've only ever done a fresh install on a new system
[04:39] <QwertyM> torrrrrrrrrr: it means your first HDD
[04:39] <shatrat> felixhummel, I like Serpentine for making audio CDs, I usually use GnomeBaker for copying and backups
[04:39] <CyberCod> gezzabob  found you this page   http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=317742
[04:39] <felixhummel> shatrat, thx, I will try this.
[04:39] <shatrat> torrrrrrrrrr, hd0,0 is the first partition on the first hd, like hda1
[04:39] <eternalswd> Cin, try running the command modprobe agpgart
[04:39] <dimeo> For example when feisty comes out in april... can I just do an "upgrade" from edgy?
[04:39] <Rudeh> I tried to install Beryl but I'm stuck on restarting X11. It froze and now it's hanging at a blank screen.
[04:39] <burzum> Rdeh, ATI?
[04:39] <Rudeh> No, Intel.
[04:39] <torrrrrrrrrr> QwertyM: If I have 4 HDs, it was once the 1st, and I moved it to the 4th place /dev/sdd1?
[04:40] <shatrat> dimeo, im sure there will be an upgrade method, how well it will work is anyones guess.
[04:40] <Rudeh> Do I just restart? Will it work? o_o
[04:40] <shatrat> dimeo, probably the more custom stuff you have installed the more likely it is to fail, ie XGL,  self compiled software, 3rd party repos.
[04:40] <gezzabob> doesnt seem it enabled on edgy im just installing xfce so will take a look in a min
[04:40] <felixhummel> maybe it's because it says unsupported file types...
[04:40] <DOlores> lskd-120, phigh?
[04:41] <shatrat> felixhummel, what file types? Do you have the codecs installed?
[04:41] <torrrrrrrrrr> shatrat: is that (hd3,0) then?
[04:41] <felixhummel> mp3s... xmms plays them
[04:41] <user01> is there anything like daemon manager for wine?
[04:41] <shatrat> torrrrrrrrrr, I believe so.  Thats a lot of HDs bro
[04:41] <Rudeh> T_T   Ahhhh I'm just gonna restart Ubuntu
[04:41] <lskd-120> DOlores, yeah, at the top of the xprg.conf file there is a line regarding re issuing the construct command, check it out
[04:41] <gezzabob> thanks CyberCod that look just like what I was talking about thanks all
[04:41] <lskd-120> xorg
[04:41] <dimeo> One of the things I love about ubuntu is how easy it is to get back your fav software with an apt-get install command.... with a list of 20 programs all at once!  then I just basically copy my home folder over
[04:42] <felixhummel> what is gnome's standard music player -> want to check codecs...
[04:42] <lskd-120> xorg.conf
[04:42] <dimeo> after I do a fresh install... it's that easy
[04:42] <shatrat> felixhummel, totem I believe is default for most media stuff
[04:42] <felixhummel> thx
[04:42] <torrrrrrrrrr> shatrat: what can I do bro. BTW I want to install the RAID support, do you know that?
[04:42] <user01> i need to make wine think that a directory is a  virtual cd rom device
[04:42] <shatrat> torrrrrrrrrr, Im a JBOD man myself.  Cant help you there.
[04:42] <DOlores> lskd-120, ok.. i found some warnings in the log file about the font directories missing
[04:43] <felixhummel> that's it. totem can't play the files. what is the mp3-codec's name?
[04:43] <MonstarMike> I am trying to mount a second hard drive. I have it in the machine, partitioned, and formated ext3.  I can't write files to it.  Can anyone help?
[04:43] <DOlores> lskd-120, (WW) The directory "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/" does not exist
[04:43] <shifty> !ext3
[04:43] <ubotu> ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[04:43] <shifty> !ext2
[04:43] <lskd-120> DOlores, yeah, open the xorg.conf and edit the lines if you want to do it that way or reissue that command I talked about
[04:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ext2 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:44] <chairmeleon> does anyone know, is it possible to run Debian etch/sid against an ubuntu kernel?
[04:44] <CyberCod> monstar mike  check the permissions
[04:44] <chairmeleon> (i.e for better power management support e.t.c)
[04:44] <MonstarMike> CyberCod, on the mount point?
[04:44] <torrrrrrrrrr> mdadm? is that the right package to get?
[04:44] <DOlores> lskd-120, ok..
[04:44] <gezzabob> has there been any evidence to suggest that an ext3 drive will ever need defraging and if so is it recomended
[04:45] <dimeo> monstar  you need to configure your fstab
[04:45] <dimeo> http://www.linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/tutorials/4232/1/
[04:45] <lskd-120> DOlores, good luck, I gotta go
[04:45] <CyberCod> monstarmike, yes, go into root nautilus     gksudo nautilus   then go to the folder and right click it and hit properties... make sure that others have read and write permissions
[04:45] <graft> anyone with a thinkpad know how to get the vga-out working? mine only works if it's connected on boot - i can't use fn-f7 to switch
[04:45] <felixhummel> wine throws an error, that it can't find /dev/snd/seq and that libjack.so is missing. what can I do about that?
[04:45] <MonstarMike> dimeo, thanks I'll read that
[04:45] <MonstarMike> CyberCod, I've done that already
[04:45] <shifty> hey my ext hd is fat32 can i write to it ?
[04:46] <dimeo> monstarmike.. the last section has info on fstab
[04:46] <MonstarMike> dimeo, thanks a bunch
[04:46] <shatrat> gezzabob, from my understanding, ext2 and ext3 place files in such a way that they dont get fragmented in the first place.
[04:46] <CyberCod> monstarmike, also is a read-only/write access modifier in the fstab file you may wanna check out
[04:47] <shatrat> shifty, absolutely, mount it as vfat in yoru fstab and you're golden
[04:47] <MonstarMike> CyberCod, I am looking into that now.  If that doesn't work I'll ask for help again.  Thanks
[04:47] <gezzabob> yes I was thinking that myself shatrat dont you just love linux :D
[04:47] <CyberCod> type    man fstab     in terminal
[04:47] <shatrat> gezzabob, some days
[04:47] <CyberCod> go get the manual
[04:47] <CyberCod> *to
[04:47] <shifty> fstab vfat o.o
[04:47] <Cin> total and utter failur
[04:48] <eternalswd> Cin, try running the command "sudo modprobe agpgart" and see if there's an error
[04:48] <Cin> eternalswd, does modprobe output to a file? it doesn't print anything
[04:49] <Galdunn> How do you copy/paste in AIM?
[04:49] <Galdunn> I mean ubuntu**
[04:49] <Cin> Ctrl + C
[04:49] <dimeo> any thoughts as to what the *best* ubuntu package is ?
[04:49] <gezzabob> whats not to like about linux it whatever you are willing to make it.  you get the people who just want it to work well for them there is software out there that just works .... Linux for me seems to work the ways I want it  ...
[04:49] <EbilPhish> Galdunn: You can also select the text, then press middle mouse to paste
[04:49] <eternalswd> Cin, try "lsmod | grep agpgart"
[04:49] <shatrat> dime, fortune
[04:49] <dimeo> I've been really impressed with tremulous... nice game
[04:50] <Cin> eternalswd, agpgart 34888  1 drm
[04:50] <Rudeh> Is anyone else here running Ubuntu on VMWare/Virtual PC?
[04:50] <Cin> eternalswd, did you get the error log I pasted?
[04:50] <CyberCod> dimeo  i'm fond of k3b
[04:50] <Cin> Rudeh, I have done... great init :D
[04:50] <Rudeh> Cool.
[04:51] <dimeo> cyber... better than gnomebaker?
[04:51] <Rudeh> Did you get beryl installed correctly?
[04:51] <eternalswd> Cin, yeah, I got the error log, I'm trying to figure out where it went wrong.  try "lsmod | grep intel"
[04:51] <shifty> !fat32
[04:51] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[04:51] <Cin> eternalswd, http://rafb.net/p/z99PuT17.txt
[04:51] <gezzabob> im curious any folks out there started out in the computer world on linux and tried to switch to windows only to find that it isnt as easy just like them out there that had started out on windows and found the switch to linux hard ???
[04:52] <gezzabob> and no I am not tring to start a flame war just wondering
[04:52] <shifty> !filesystem
[04:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about filesystem - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:52] <Cin> gezzabob, I imagine switching to Mac would be hard for me
[04:52] <shatrat> gezzabob, it seems to me the learning curve is just as steep in windows if you want to actually use your computer and not just be a botnet email server for some guy in romania
[04:52] <dimeo> gezza... if I imagine me starting out in ubuntu and *having* to set up a windowz system.. I'd tear my hair out with all the EULAs, virius, serials, nonfree software...
[04:52] <Cin> gezzabob, as a Win32 user..
[04:52] <eternalswd> Cin, try running the command "sudo modprobe intel_agp"
[04:53] <Cin> eternalswd, oki
[04:53] <Cin> aha!
[04:53] <shifty> how do i check the fileserver of a drive?
[04:53] <Cin> FATAL: Module intel_agp not found.
[04:53] <shatrat> shifty, you mean filesystem?
[04:53] <shifty> yea
[04:53] <Cin> eternalswd, what is intel_agp?
[04:53] <gezzabob> yes probably for me too Cin never really used a mac so I would have a lot to learn
[04:53] <shifty> filesystem :x
[04:53] <Gladier> anyone know anything about installing with software raid? - not fakeraid??
[04:53] <rellik> do I have to do anything special to get flash to work in firefox?  I installed flashplugin-nonfree but I get get errors on websites about "you must have flash installed and javascript enabled" (and javascript is enabled)
[04:53] <Pirate-king> where can I get good themes and stuff for ubuntu
[04:53] <eternalswd> Cin, I believe it allows intel to use agpgart
[04:54] <Cin> Pirate-king, try gnome art (google that)
[04:54] <eternalswd> Cin, I'm guessing that's why the script failed
[04:54] <EbilPhish> shifty: If its mounted it should show up when you type mount
[04:54] <Pirate-king> ok
[04:54] <Cin> eternalswd, shall I try apt-get'ing it/
[04:54] <EbilPhish> shifty: Otherwise gparted should beable to detect it
[04:54] <shifty> all my drive are like auto mounted
[04:54] <eternalswd> Cin, no not yet
[04:55] <Cin> eternalswd, okay
[04:55] <EbilPhish> shifty: They it should show up when you type 'mount' in a terminal
[04:55] <Gladier> anyone know anything about installing with software raid? - not fakeraid??
[04:55] <EbilPhish> Gladier: google LVM
[04:55] <templarius> :P
[04:55] <dimeo> Any thoughts to if beryl is worth the resources, or will I just use 100% RAM and processing for a 3D cube to look at....?
[04:55] <gop> hmm
[04:55] <shatrat> rellik, you can download the flash plugin from adobe and extract it to your .mozillia/firefox/plugins direcotry
[04:55] <shifty> hope that they come out wif the ntfs write driver real fasst =)
[04:55] <gop> is it possible that a bios update effect ubuntu installion
[04:56] <Gladier> ebilphish: ive looked at lvm and guides on it but i cant get it to work
[04:56] <shatrat> shifty, there is one, its just not very safe.
[04:56] <dimeo> a better question might be.. . has anyone here bothered with beryl yet?
[04:56] <gop> is it possible that a bios update can give me access to usb botting
[04:56] <gop> boooting
[04:56] <MonstarMike> dimeo, I love beryl
[04:56] <gop> any here ever tryed to update the bios of a dell
[04:56] <EbilPhish> dimeo: Beryls funtastic, although the latest version is memleaking xorg but i'm running unstable
[04:56] <rellik> shatrat, thanks I will try tha
[04:56] <Cin> dimeo, I have. it's pretty good
[04:56] <gop> yea beryl kick ass
[04:56] <Rudeh> I love how Ubuntu downloads updates/packages two at a time.
[04:56] <turbolover> hey why is aiglx better than xgl and how can i tell if my system supports it
[04:56] <shatrat> shifty, and considering that NTFS is undocumented and bloated and...bad.  People arent tryingi all that hard to write a driver for it.  Only dual-booters care.
[04:56] <dimeo> wow.. mebbie I'll give it a try.
[04:56] <gezzabob> anybody know of a gnome chat channel may have a few ideas to bonce of some of the people that maintain it
[04:56] <Rudeh> I'm pretty new to Ubuntu, and I'm happy to say I'm addicted. =D
[04:56] <gop> anyhere updated thier bios in dell, to support usb
[04:56] <shifty> shat ; yea i noe, i dun wanna mess up my windows stuff, i got impt programming stuff on it
[04:56] <rexxenexx> Anyone know why my hostname appears as an asterisk instead of the name on my router?
[04:56] <dimeo> does it do anything more than a 3D cube for desktop switching?
[04:57] <MonstarMike> dimeo, I have the stable release that on aiglx and it seems to be stable and fast
[04:57] <MonstarMike> dimeo, it does
[04:57] <gezzabob> and me Rudeh I love ubuntu its great and getting better every day
[04:57] <EbilPhish> dimeo: Expose rippof, wobbly windows, animation closing/resizing
[04:57] <shatrat> turbolover, aiglx is built into the normal xorg of edgy.  XGL is a different xserver and you cant run 3D applications in it
[04:57] <Coir> I am trying to ssh -X to a connection, but when I try to run a program I get this: "/usr/bin/X11/xauth:  error in locking authority file /home/coir/.Xauthority"
[04:57] <Coir> Rather, I get that when connecting via -X
[04:57] <shatrat> turbolover, #ubuntu-xgl if you want to know about compositing window managers
[04:58] <Rudeh> I can't wait for FF.
[04:58] <turbolover> shat rat: ahh, well im on dapper, so i guess that puts me out
[04:58] <PhibreOptix> shifty: go here  http://www.debianadmin.com/mount-your-widows-partitions-and-make-it-readwritable-in-ubuntu.html
[04:58] <dimeo> ebil: what do you mean by expose rippof?
[04:58] <Cin> Rudeh[AWAY] , , firefox?
[04:58] <EbilPhish> dimeo: I also find the cube very usefull for finding windows on the other desktops, expessially if the cube its set to be transparent all the time
[04:58] <Gladier> ebilphish: ive looked at lvm and guides on it but i cant get it to work
[04:58] <Rudeh[AWAY] > fawny farn or whatever
[04:58] <Rudeh[AWAY] > :P
[04:58] <Rudeh[AWAY] > I forgot the name
[04:58] <Rudeh[AWAY] > brb
[04:58] <PhibreOptix> Fesity fawn
[04:58] <shifty> i wonder if i should install my nvidia drivers , any suggestions ?
[04:58] <PhibreOptix> *Feisty
[04:58] <Coir> Can anyone help with the ssh -X problem?  ^_^
[04:58] <shifty> i am using a nvidia geforce 5200fx go 64mb
[04:58] <rexxenexx> also does a freash install of Ubuntu have a firewall built in? I cant find what is blocking port 2302
[04:59] <Cin> Rudeh[AWAY] , I haven't used Ubuntu for a while, I'm still on Dapper. last I heard, Dapper was new and excitingpper was the newest thing out.
[04:59] <Gladier> rexxenexx - are you sure you actually have a service running???
[04:59] <EbilPhish> Gladier: Ive never used lvm myself so i carn't help, just unionfs which lets you have files in multiple directories/drives appears as if there in the same one
[04:59] <rexxenexx> which service?
[04:59] <dimeo> I love how my fav os comes with ubuntuforums.org.... it rocks
[04:59] <noobie0057> how can I install images2mpg ?
[05:00] <shifty> i wonder if i should install my nvidia drivers , any suggestions ?
[05:00] <Gladier> rexxenexx - you have said that something is blocking your port - possibly the port is not open because there is no service running
[05:00] <shifty> i am using a nvidia geforce 5200fx go 64mb
[05:00] <felixhummel> is there a "browser" for all doc files like man pages and those in /usr/share/doc?
[05:00] <graft> hrm... i don't get any acpi events like lid closing on my laptop
[05:00] <deafboy> does anyone use DVD::Rip when i tried to transcode a movie that i split into chapters it says ihave not enough space?
[05:00] <graft> how do i enable that?
[05:01] <rexxenexx> Im on my Ubuntu now, everything works (i just installed this IRC client) but trying to run a dedserver that uses that port
[05:01] <felixhummel> i dislike typing less /usr/share/doc/<tab>/xyz<tab> always
[05:01] <dimeo> himm I thought beryl and compiz were the same... but they're not?
[05:01] <EnsignRedshirt> Groovy... this thing is working... coming to you from my vintage 1996 laptop with 40meg, via a serial connection to my ubuntu box.
[05:01] <Galdunn> Where do you go to update ubuntu
[05:01] <rexxenexx> yea, I tried DMZing the server but it didnt help
[05:01] <Cin> graft: system > preferences > power management
[05:01] <Galdunn> And is there a task manager in ubuntu?
[05:01] <torrrrrrrrrr> (hd3,0) didn't work
[05:01] <Cin> Galdunn, gnome-system-monitor
[05:02] <shatrat> dimeo, beryl is a fork off compiz with more stuff
[05:02] <torrrrrrrrrr> any idea what should I have writen for /dev/sdd1?
[05:02] <Gladier> rexxenexx - open a terminal and type: telnet <IP_ADDRESS> [portno]
[05:02] <Cin> Galdunn, it's under system > administration > system monitor
[05:02] <dimeo> galdunn: administration-->system monitor
[05:02] <Gladier> put your port no in the brackets
[05:02] <Rudeh> Does Ubuntu restart if it crashes? It just stopped working when I started beryl and it went to the login screen
[05:03] <Rudeh> and it's still KDE
[05:03] <threeonefour> i cant print
[05:03] <rexxenexx> telnet: could not resolve <IP_ADDRESS>/[portno] : Servname not supported for ai_sock type
[05:03] <shatrat> Rudeh, well, if the xserver crashes (not unusual if you just installed beryl) then it can kick you to the kdm
[05:03] <rexxenexx> oh you mean 2302 1 sec
[05:03] <Gladier> rofl rexx
[05:03] <Galdunn> Where do you go to update?
[05:03] <rexxenexx> lol
[05:03] <rexxenexx> telnet: could not resolve <IP_ADDRESS>/[portno] : Servname not supported for ai_sock type
[05:04] <dimeo> ok... so what's the difference between xgl and AIGLX?
[05:04] <rexxenexx> damn copypaste
[05:04] <Cin> Galdunn, system > adminstration > update manager
[05:04] <Galdunn> thakn you
[05:04] <rexxenexx> telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
[05:04] <shatrat> dimeo, #ubuntu-xgl
[05:04] <Cin> Galdunn, most of the things you are asking about are in that menu
[05:04] <rexxenexx> phaha
[05:04] <Galdunn> ok
[05:04] <graft> Rudeh: beryl isnt a desktop environment, it's a window manager - it runs within KDE or Gnome or XFCE, etc.
[05:04] <Gladier> rexxnexx - check the service is running
[05:04] <Cin> eternalswd, are you gone?
[05:04] <somerville32> *Xfce
[05:05] <Galdunn> every time I open something it shows Starting [process name]  in the taskbar
[05:05] <Galdunn> then closes and nothing is open
[05:05] <Cin> eternalswd, say 'yes' if you are
[05:05] <rexxenexx> which service?
[05:05] <Gladier> rexx: your irc server
[05:05] <eternalswd> Cin, I'm still here, just doing some searching on the problem
[05:05] <Max_-> Hellooo!  anyone can give me a clue about "Package console-common is not available, but is referred to by another package... blah blah"  What do I need to do then to get it installed?
[05:05] <Cin> Galdunn, what program, for example?
[05:06] <Rudeh> Garr Beryl isnt starting in my Ubuntu VM
[05:06] <Galdunn> System Monitor
[05:06] <Galdunn> and GAIM
[05:06] <Cin> eternalswd, oh, thanks. much appreciated
[05:06] <rexxenexx> its a flashpoint dedicated server
[05:06] <Rudeh> I start it using beryl-manager
[05:06] <Rudeh> should I try beryl?
[05:06] <Cin> Galdunn, do you know how to open a terminal?
[05:06] <Gladier> rexx: are you running the server or are you trying to connect?
[05:06] <Galdunn> Yes
[05:06] <Galdunn> im in one now
[05:06] <rexxenexx> trying to run the flashpoint server
[05:07] <threeonefour> i say print testpage but iti doesnt print any one can help
[05:07] <Cin> Galdunn, try simply entering 'gnome-system-monitor' and see if there is an error output
[05:07] <shatrat> Rudeh, are you running ubuntu in vmware and trying to use beryl? that isnt gonna fly bro
[05:07] <dimeo> !beryl
[05:07] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-xgl
[05:07] <Rudeh> Success! Beryl started :D
[05:07] <Rudeh> nevermind
[05:07] <Rudeh> lmao
[05:07] <Rudeh> What do you mean?
[05:07] <Galdunn> (gnome-system-monitor:18810): Gtk-WARNING: **: cannot open display:
[05:07] <gop> dam my usb bios won't boot usb
[05:07] <Rudeh> Should I enable 3D?
[05:08] <rexxenexx> I think it might have something to do with the hostname not showing up in the router which might mean its not showing up to the masterserver
[05:08] <Cin> Galdunn, I thought as much. although I cannot say as to why this would happen. have you done any updates that might change X or require restart?
[05:08] <Galdunn> I just did a bunch of updates
[05:08] <Galdunn> i'll try restarting
[05:08] <Gladier> rexx: i have never used flashpoint ded irc server
[05:08] <rexxenexx> it seems like the port is open
[05:08] <TooR4u> hee is there any tool in linux whoose working is same as MICRO MEDIA FLASH?
[05:08] <Cin> Galdunn, indeed. or simply logging off and logging back on
[05:09] <rexxenexx> right?
[05:09] <Galdunn> how do you logg off?
[05:09] <Gladier> rexx: how did you check
[05:09] <Galdunn> NVM I see
[05:09] <Max_-> How did we enable searching in more servers for packages.. can't remember.. there was something about it..
[05:09] <Cin> Galdunn, System > Quit
[05:09] <Galdunn> lol, it's not doing anything
[05:09] <Cin> Galdunn, might want to restart then, hehe
[05:10] <Cin> was it a large update?
[05:10] <Cin> :/
[05:10] <rexxenexx> what could I serve now to check for sure?
[05:10] <Galdunn> Took about 30 mins
[05:10] <Cin> Galdunn, on broadband!?
[05:10] <Gladier> rexx: well point your irc client at yourself at the port you said
[05:10] <Galdunn> Yeah
[05:10] <Galdunn> It's all working now
[05:10] <eternalswd> Cin, try "ls /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/char/agp | grep intel"
[05:10] <Galdunn> I did a ctrl alt backspace and logged back in
[05:10] <Cin> Galdunn, ah, cool
[05:10] <Galdunn> But a notification came up telling me to restart
[05:11] <Cin> Galdunn, aha, there we go
[05:11] <Cin> eternalswd, oki
[05:11] <shifty> is there any shortcut key to open system monitor ?
[05:11] <Cin> eternalswd, http://rafb.net/p/fCOCB198.txt
[05:11] <Cin> eternalswd, it seems only backups were made and the new one never copied over
[05:12] <threeonefour> i say print testpage but iti doesnt print any one can help
[05:13] <makkk> I'm using shfs, i'd like to mount a remote file system, but give my normal user (not root) ownership of this file system. can someone help me find the right combination of options to do this?
[05:13] <Cin> threeonefour, sorry, I don't know about printing in Linux
[05:13] <eternalswd> Cin, cd to your i915 folder and run the command - find . -type f -name "intel-agp.ko"
[05:13] <Max_-> Hellooo!  anyone can give me a clue about "Package console-common is not available, but is referred to by another package... blah blah and it says to maybe look for other locations.."  What do I need to do then to get it installed?
[05:13] <wolfwalker> !DHCP
[05:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about DHCP - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:13] <Cin> eternalswd, righto
[05:14] <xtknight> !ipv6
[05:14] <ubotu> To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[05:14] <wolfwalker> Okay, I ran the ubuntu alternate cd. It said it couldn't configure my DHCP network.
[05:14] <wolfwalker> So what gives?
[05:14] <rexxenexx> it says: Unknown host. Maybe you misspelled it?
[05:14] <threeonefour> Cin, i am just using cups  but ok thx anyway
[05:14] <Cin> eternalswd, wait, the install folder or the modules folder?
[05:14] <shatrat> threeonefour, You might want to look up your printer on linuxprinting.org
[05:14] <Gladier> rexx: <IP_ADDRESS> is your loopback address which means that it points directly back at your computer without hitting a router
[05:14] <eternalswd> Cin, where the install.sh file is
[05:14] <Cin> eternalswd, right
[05:15] <Rudeh> What's the minimum and reccomended RAM for Ubuntu?
[05:15] <wolfwalker> There's no place like <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:15] <Rudeh> recommended*
[05:15] <gezzabob> right hopefully back soon just install xfce and running on this slow low mem gnome it a bit sluggish
[05:15] <Cin> I think the minimum is around 256, it's on the web site
[05:15] <inono> whats the package name for manuals of common C functions like gets, strcmp, etc?
[05:15] <rexxenexx> im gonna try to host telnet on that port
[05:15] <Gladier> !wolfwalker too true
[05:15] <Cin> eternalswd, "find . -type f -name "intel-agp.ko"" brings up nothing
[05:15] <wolfwalker> Okay, I ran the ubuntu alternate cd. It said it couldn't configure my DHCP network.
[05:15] <wolfwalker> So what gives?
[05:16] <wolfwalker> What is it talking about?
[05:16] <threeonefour> shatrat, i did the drivers that work for it are in a rpm   so i used alien and converted to a deb file but it dont work
[05:16] <wastrel> wolfwalker:  it couldn't autodetect your internet connection
[05:16] <noobie0057> any suggestions to transform a series of png files and a single ogg audio file into a mpg movie?
[05:16] <shatrat> threeonefour, alien is a last resort.  search for ubuntu specific stuff instead
[05:17] <Rudeh> What's the default pass for root?
[05:17] <wolfwalker> Big whoop, the computer's not even connected to the internet
[05:17] <Flannel> Rudeh: ubuntu doesn't use root
[05:17] <Flannel> !sudo | Rudeh
[05:17] <ubotu> Rudeh: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:17] <wolfwalker> Can't it take care of that if and when that computer gets a modem on it?
[05:17] <Rudeh> oh.
[05:17] <Rudeh> lol
[05:17] <aN1> sed -e 's/\(<[^ ] *>\)\([ ] *\)\(<[^ ] *>\)/\3\2\1/g'  can some one please explain why regexpr 1 and 3 are closed off by < >
[05:17] <roy> Has anyone managed to get MS Flight Simulator to run using WINE ??
[05:18] <Rudeh> Other question, how do I open a root terminal with terminal?
[05:18] <frogzoo> !appdb | roy
[05:18] <ubotu> roy: Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org
[05:18] <shatrat> wolfwalker, yeah it can, but usually it tries to install updates during the install
[05:18] <wolfwalker> |Rudeh:| to become root type sudo in front of the command
[05:18] <shifty> wow i love ubuntu for its stable memory usage
[05:18] <mathrick> aN1: probably because they're intended to match on something eclosed by <> ?
[05:18] <shatrat> Rudeh, sudo -i
[05:18] <slvmchn> noobie0057: ffmpeg and/or mencoder
[05:18] <Rudeh> Thanks
[05:18] <shatrat> shifty, I havent rebooted yet this week
[05:18] <wolfwalker> |Rudeh:| so if the command is apt-get install Audacity, the command as root would be sudo apt-get install Audacity
[05:18] <noobie0057> slvmchn, I;ll check it out thanks
[05:18] <shifty> haha shat :p
[05:19] <rexxenexx> there is no firewall installed on Ubuntu right?
[05:19] <wolfwalker> That particular command I strongly recommend, btw. Audacity rocks!
[05:19] <Flannel> !firewall | rexxenexx
[05:19] <ubotu> rexxenexx: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[05:19] <shatrat> wolfwalker, exactly
[05:19] <Gladier> rexx: no firewall
[05:19] <aN1> matherik nope just whole words
[05:19] <shifty> the only thing keeping on windows server is aspx
[05:19] <Flannel> Gladier, no... it has a firewall.  All linux has firewalls built in
[05:19] <mathrick> aN1: you can press TAB to complete nicks
[05:20] <Rudeh> Okay, this beryl on Ubuntu VM is NOT going to work >-<
[05:20] <mathrick> aN1: also, what is the context there? You just drop in with some regex and ask strange questions, how's anyone supposed to know that?
[05:20] <Cin> Firestarter is bloody brilliant
[05:20] <Rudeh> uncontrollably?
[05:20] <Rudeh> yes.
[05:20] <mathrick> aN1: AFAICS, they'll just match on stuff enclosed in <>
[05:20] <Flannel> aN1: probably because of greedy modifiers
[05:20] <Cin> Rudeh, why not?
[05:20] <threeonefour> shatrat, any suggestions
[05:21] <Rudeh> Cause it just wont work on VM.
[05:21] <aN1> mathrick sorri i typed ur name wrong yeah i was reading rute
[05:21] <Rudeh> I start it but it doesnt open
[05:21] <Cin> Rudeh, oh, because the graphics card is just an emulation?
[05:21] <aN1> Flannel wut u mean by greedy modifiers?
[05:21] <Rudeh> and ubuntu craskes and redirects me to login
[05:21] <Rudeh> Yep.
[05:22] <Rudeh> Although there is experimental support for 3D.
[05:22] <Cin> Rudeh, guess the only logical step is to install Ubuntu over Windows
[05:22] <Galdunn> Anyone know a good guide for XGL setup
[05:22] <IdleOne> !xgl
[05:22] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - Help in #ubuntu-xgl - See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[05:22] <eternalswd> Cin, the fact that it never built intel-agp.ko is likely the problem here
[05:22] <Rudeh> lol nah I don't touch my physical hardrive with OS's
[05:22] <Rudeh> and plus, its a shared computer.
[05:22] <Galdunn> ty
[05:23] <Max_-> Hellooo!  anyone can give me a clue about "Package console-common is not available, but is referred to by another package... blah blah and it says to maybe look for other locations.."  What do I need to do then to get it installed?
[05:23] <Cin> eternalswd, is there a way I can force it (although it is strange that it wouldn't do that by itself). where are you reading this from?
[05:23] <Flannel> aN1: your first and third things match 0 or more of anything that isn't a space inside of brackets.  So why wouldn't it include the brackets?
[05:23] <KorN[CM] > !dmraid
[05:23] <ubotu> dmraid: Device-Mapper Software RAID support tool. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.9+1.0.0.rc9-2ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 117 kB, installed size 460 kB
[05:23] <rexxenexx> is there a fontend to iptables?
[05:24] <Flannel> rexxenexx: firestarter
[05:24] <rexxenexx> thx
[05:24] <Cin> rexxenexx, firestarter is bloody great
[05:24] <KorN[CM] > any dmraid gurus here???? I need some help please.
[05:24] <Galdunn> Is 6.10 Dapper or Edgy?
[05:25] <chairmeleon> Edgy
[05:25] <eternalswd> Cin, just for curiousity in the install.sh directory run - find . -type f -name "agpgart.ko"
[05:25] <Cin> eternalswd, righto
[05:25] <rexxenexx> i dont see it in the package manager (firestarter)
[05:25] <Cin> eternalswd, like this? "find . -type f -name "agpgart.ko""
[05:25] <rexxenexx> could i apt-get it?
[05:26] <eternalswd> Cin, yes, without the outer quotes though
[05:26] <Cin> eternalswd, indeed. that returns nothing
[05:26] <the> hi
[05:26] <aN1> Flannel, mathrick, ok thx i was reading rute i think he meant to use \< \> b/c he was saying about matching whole words
[05:26] <Galdunn> When I try to do [gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf]  it gives a Cannot Open Display error
[05:26] <Galdunn> Anyone know why?
[05:26] <the> hi
[05:27] <Cin> eternalswd, what is a .ko file?
[05:27] <oidia> Galdunn: usen nano
[05:27] <Cin> hi, the
[05:27] <shatrat> Galdunn, I think you need gksudo gedit and not gksu
[05:27] <Galdunn> So what do I type instead?
[05:27] <shatrat> I'd also recommend just using nano to edit
[05:27] <shatrat> sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:27] <Galdunn> ok ty
[05:27] <Goldfisch> Is anybody aware of xorg driving the graphics card with varying intensity? I noticed while watching a show through MythTV,  dark sections would dim, while bright parts would get brighter. When I opened a terminal, all black caused the windowbars to dim, while lots of white text caused them brighten up.
[05:28] <Cuddles_Laptop> evening all.
[05:28] <Leet44X0R> could someone help me with eggdrop?
[05:28] <eternalswd> Cin, just for curiousity try this then - find . -type f | grep "\.o"
[05:28] <Cuddles_Laptop> question. why do i randomly get the message ''acpi: disabling irq 11'' and how can i stop it?
[05:29] <Goldfisch> In fact, I can switch between XChat and a black gnome terminal, and watch the window title bars vary intensity. I guess one last test to verify it isn't my HDTV doing this is to hook up a monitor to it and see if replicates the behavior there as well.
[05:29] <Cin> eternalswd, lots of .o and .o.cmd files
[05:29] <eternalswd> Cin, okay, thanks
[05:29] <Cin> eternalswd, http://rafb.net/p/VP4oWz35.txt
[05:29] <shatrat> Goldfisch, I suspect its the TV trying to be smart and even out the gamma or something
[05:30] <sanityx_> Anybody have any experience using ubuntu on an inspiron 1500/1501?
[05:30] <sanityx_> I've got it installed, that's not my question
[05:30] <Leet44X0R> hello?
[05:30] <denver> well try asking your question :)
[05:30] <rexxenexx> how do i dl firestarter?
[05:30] <Cuddles_Laptop> leet44x0r, try #eggdrop
[05:30] <Leet44X0R> k thx cuddles
[05:31] <denver> rexxenexx, sudo apt-get install firestarter does not work for you?
[05:31] <kporter> hey i have a file that fails to install when i run apt-get.  so instead i installed it from source...   but apt-get keeps trying to install it.  how can i make it quit?  where does apt-get store its "to be installed" file?
[05:31] <shatrat> rexxenexx, you might have to enable universe and multiverse repos to see it
[05:31] <rexxenexx> havent tried thx

[05:31] <Galdunn> How do I save and exit GNU Nano?
[05:31] <denver> Galdunn, ctrl-x
[05:32] <Galdunn> ok ty
[05:32] <Flannel> Galdunn: ctrl-O to save, ctrl-X to quit
[05:32] <shatrat> Galdunn, there are instructions at the bottom of the terminal in Nano
[05:32] <Galdunn> oh
[05:32] <rexxenexx> dling now thx
[05:32] <Galdunn> didn't notice them
[05:32] <Cuddles_Laptop> question. why do i randomly get the message ''acpi: disabling irq 11'' and how can i stop it?
[05:33] <kporter> hey i have a file that fails to install when i run apt-get.  so instead i installed it from source...   but apt-get keeps trying to install it.  how can i make it quit?  where does apt-get store its "to be installed" file?
[05:33] <eternalswd> Cin, try "ls /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/char/agp | grep agpgart"
[05:33] <gansinho> please, I made a full backup of my home directory before reinstall of ubuntu, and now I want to transfer it back to my home folder, could anyone help me with the correct "cp" command? to copy all the folders and subfolders and files (even the protected and invisible ones)?
[05:33] <Pirate-king> how do you put skins in xmms
[05:33] <rexxenexx> wow that was fast :) firestarter up and running
[05:34] <CyberCod> pirate king... hold a sec, i know this one
[05:34] <Pirate-king> where is the xmms folder
[05:34] <Cin> eternalswd, that outputs agpgart.ko
[05:34] <shatrat> gansinho, well, you could use ctrl H to show the hidden files in nautilus if you have it mounted and are looking at it
[05:34] <Pirate-king> Im a newbee can you tell
[05:34] <xtknight> Pirate-king: type "locate xmms" that should guide you to the right place
[05:34] <shatrat> gansinho, and then just drag and drop, thats what I'd do
[05:34] <CyberCod> pirateking its .xmms in your home folder.... you gotta show hidden files
[05:34] <eternalswd> Cin, only that one?
[05:34] <Cin> eternalswd, yeah, just one
[05:34] <chairmeleon> Pirate-king: /home/<your_username>/.xmms I suppose
[05:35] <gansinho> shatrat, the thing is, I've done that and nautilus aparently doesn't deal well with a bunch of files, it copy most of the things, but it still misses other
[05:35] <xtknight> Pirate-king: /usr/share/xmms/Skins   if you want to install the skin for "All Users" (in windows terms), or ~/.xmms/Skins if you just want to skin for you.  it's your choice.
[05:35] <matthew_> how do I turn OFF quicksearch in  Places > Search for files?
[05:35] <Pirate-king> ok thanks
[05:35] <Galdunn> Where do I get XGL
[05:35] <xtknight> !xgl | Galdunn
[05:35] <ubotu> Galdunn: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - Help in #ubuntu-xgl - See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[05:36] <gansinho> Galdunn, look in google for beryl
[05:36] <Goldfisch> shatrat: You're right! I dug into my TV manual. Seemed like an easier line of research than xorg configuration settings. I found the tv has seven different AV modes, 3 of which automatically adjust based on the source signal. I switched to a non-dynamic setting, and now it behaves more approriately.
[05:36] <xtknight> Galdunn: i recommend beryl personally.  go to the #beryl channel to get the full scoop
[05:36] <Galdunn> ok
[05:36] <starz> \o/
[05:36] <Cuddles_Laptop> why do i randomly get the message ''acpi: disabling irq 11'' and how can i stop it? my wireless card is on 11, and the only way i can fix it is a full reboot, which is getting annoying.
[05:36] <shatrat> Goldfisch, it sounded like just the sort of annoying thing your average home electronics manufacturer would do
[05:36] <kporter> hey i have a file that fails to install when i run apt-get.  so instead i installed it from source...   but apt-get keeps trying to install it.  how can i make it quit?  where does apt-get store its "to be installed" file?
[05:36] <xtknight> Cuddles_Laptop: laptop i assume?
[05:36] <Cin> Goldfisch, that's interesting
[05:37] <Cuddles_Laptop> xtknight, correct.
[05:37] <starz> hm
[05:37] <starz> im installing ubuntu on a system that has total crap stats....
[05:37] <xtknight> Cuddles_Laptop: new one?  Core 2 duo?
[05:37] <Cuddles_Laptop> xtknight, no, older latitude laptop
[05:37] <shatrat> kporter, I think if you search for it in synaptic you can mark it with "Never upgrade" or something like that
[05:37] <starz> i was thinking ubuntu [gnome]  + automatix .... anyone know if it works on xubuntu ?
[05:37] <shatrat> kporter, thats my only thought on the subject
[05:37] <xtknight> Cuddles_Laptop: interesting.  newer hardware is known to have problems which is why i wondered.
[05:37] <matthew_> how do I turn OFF quicksearch in  Places > Search for files?
[05:37] <Goldfisch> This is my favorite setup. I run a dedicated machine in my living room with MythTV. It is hooked up to a 42" HDTV. I can flip between watching TV shows, firefox, and xchat. Of course, I run it all on ubuntu!
[05:37] <starz> [im too lazy to manually set this one up as its for a friend to mess with.,......]
[05:37] <xtknight> Cuddles_Laptop: you could try changing the pnp OS option in the bios
[05:38] <xtknight> Cuddles_Laptop: all it says it disabling irq...no reason or anything?
[05:38] <kporter> shatrat: thanks ill see if its there... I don't remember seeing it in synaptic
[05:38] <Cuddles_Laptop> xtknight, i've tried 4 different cards, and it happens every time. as for the bios, no such settings.
[05:38] <starz> also if i just give say 1 gig swap 4 gigs root 2 gigs home it wont go any slower b/c its got a small root partition rite?
[05:38] <Cuddles_Laptop> xtknight, exactly.
[05:38] <eternalswd> Cin, sudo mv /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/char/agp/old.intel-agp.ko.old /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/char/agp/intel-agp.ko
[05:38] <xtknight> Cuddles_Laptop: it is randomy appearing in dmesg?
[05:39] <starz> also any word on support for the x-fi ?
[05:39] <Cin> eternalswd, *gulp*
[05:39] <eternalswd> Cin, and then restartx
[05:39] <Cin> eternalswd, okay
[05:39] <Cuddles_Laptop> xtknight, well, normally i just see it after the wireless drops and i pull up /var/log/messages
[05:39] <xtknight> Cuddles_Laptop: so it is actually impairing your hardware also?
[05:39] <Cuddles_Laptop> xtknight, exactly. i get that message, and then no network.
[05:40] <xtknight> Cuddles_Laptop: you may try booting the kernel with the pci=routeirq option.
[05:40] <Cuddles_Laptop> xtknight, where would i add that?
[05:40] <xtknight> Cuddles_Laptop: you know the grub screen at bootup?
[05:40] <starz> oh yeah and how is ndiswrapper with dlink wireless cards?
[05:40] <Cuddles_Laptop> xtknight, yes
[05:40] <GionnyBoss> There's a PETITION to Macromedia, to bring a Shockwave Player for Linux at: http://www.petitiononline.com/linuxswp/petition.html . I wanted to inform you, if you want to vote for that. Thanks for listening me.
[05:41] <BHSPitMonkey> GionnyBoss, it should be made out to Adobe.
[05:41] <rexxenexx> anyone know why my hostname on my router (DHCP) is just "*" ?
[05:41] <graft> also, does anyone even use shockwave?
[05:41] <GionnyBoss> BHSPitMonkey, really? is it in program?
[05:41] <BHSPitMonkey> I'd like to
[05:41] <BHSPitMonkey> GionnyBoss, huh?
[05:41] <GionnyBoss> ah sorry
[05:41] <GionnyBoss> I misunderstud
[05:41] <BHSPitMonkey> I just run firefox in wine
[05:41] <BHSPitMonkey> and it works fine
[05:41] <Cuddles_Laptop> starz, i don't know about dlink, but linksys sucks with it.
[05:41] <XNIT-01> shockwave player is garbage though
[05:41] <GionnyBoss> I'm not English :P
[05:41] <BHSPitMonkey> mostly
[05:42] <BHSPitMonkey> GionnyBoss, neither am I...
[05:42] <xtknight> Cuddles_Laptop: i believe you press E to edit the bootup line.  there is a line for the kernel, which will contain "vmlinuz".  this is the one you need to edit.  at the end of the line you should add "pci=routeirq" (all options are separated by spaces, and this is one option you need to add to the list)
[05:42] <XNIT-01> want to go play miniclip? lol..
[05:42] <BHSPitMonkey> I'm an American :/
[05:42] <xtknight> Cuddles_Laptop: you then press B to boot the operating system.  we can permanently add the option, this is just for testing
[05:42] <kairu0> BHSPitMonkey, i'm gonna have to ask for some ID..
[05:42] <Cuddles_Laptop> xtknight, and if i wanted to make it permanent?
[05:42] <eternalswd> not to mention that petition for shockwave must be ages old since it's petitioning macromedia and not adobe
[05:42] <GionnyBoss> BHSPitMonkey, well, but I think that this would be important... I don't know if there are better petitions to Adobe... but... well... I think that this is an important thing
[05:42] <BHSPitMonkey> kairu0, I'm gonna have to ask for some leave-me-alone
[05:43] <xtknight> Cuddles_Laptop: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and add "pci=routeirq" to the vmlinuz line in there
[05:43] <jontec> hey, if lspci has my audio device as an unknown one, but still lists "audio device", can I use the alsa drivers, tools, and utilities to install the drivers?
[05:43] <xtknight> Cuddles_Laptop: just for reference there are other options you can try like nolapic, noapic, acpi=off.  see what pci=routeirq does
[05:43] <BHSPitMonkey> GionnyBoss, anyway, it's useless to talk about it in here. It's just off-topic.
[05:43] <rexxenexx> anyone know why the hostname on my router is just " * " ?
[05:44] <starz> Cuddles_Laptop i would have thought that linksys cards would be easier to support......
[05:44] <GionnyBoss> BHSPitMonkey, ok sorry for that... I just thought that this could be a topic of Linux users' interest... sorry
[05:44] <BHSPitMonkey> GionnyBoss, ##linux :)
[05:44] <shatrat> rexxenexx, maybe its configured that way in the router?
[05:44] <tomw> Anyone here successfully set up a triple head installation?  I'm having some problems and would love some pointers. I'm not sure if my issues are hardware related or if the problem is my Xorg.conf, my third monitor is not getting a signal, but xserver dosent complain about the xorg configuration.
[05:44] <BHSPitMonkey> GionnyBoss, this channel is busy enough with support requests
[05:44] <mocoloco> quick .. someone tell why i should go ubuntu over xubuntu .. in 20 words or less
[05:44] <rexxenexx> my other M$ comps say the correct  hostname
[05:44] <BHSPitMonkey> mocoloco, because you have more than 128MB of ram?
[05:44] <NineTeen67Comet> How come Kernel Panic messages are so lacking of information? .. grrrr .. Just installed mobo, ram, cpu & pci video card .. leads to Kernel Panic .. ideas on where to look? (Ubuntu Server 6.10 after I click install it goes for a moment, then hands out a Kernel Panic... )
[05:45] <starz> rexxenexx i agree with shatrat :>
[05:45] <eternalswd> mocoloco, does it really matter unless it's a ram issue?
[05:45] <kporter> BHSPitMonkey: what part of America, north or south?  Brazil, Canada, or Mexico?
[05:45] <starz> NineTeen67Comet i believe its kept in the logs tho
[05:45] <eternalswd> Cin, any luck?
[05:45] <BHSPitMonkey> North America.
[05:45] <tomw> Mocolo: GNOME
[05:45] <xtknight> mocoloco: i prefer gnome over xfce.  there are more gnome apps and gnome apps look better under gnome than xfce
[05:45] <GionnyBoss> BHSPitMonkey, yeah I know that... and you guys are great to help everyone... keep doing the good work and thanks for your time here (you were great with me when I had problems). Bye!
[05:45] <starz> p'haps not :/
[05:45] <Cin> eternalswd, okay, I did that and direct rendering is still disabled.
[05:45] <mocoloco> well .. i am sold.!
[05:45] <rexxenexx> cant be, the other hostnames are there, only the Ubuntu comp says " * "
[05:45] <Cin> eternalswd, I'm pretty sure I've got it configured right on xorg.conf. would you might having a look at it?
[05:45] <eternalswd> Cin, can you post your xorg.conf?
[05:46] <NineTeen67Comet> starz: may I access the logs that early in the install? .. I can't even use the keyboard when it kernel panics ..
[05:46] <Cuddles_Laptop> xtknight, thanks. now all i need to do is wait for it to happen again.
[05:46] <pwk> hi
[05:46] <starz> xtknight if your short on cpu and know what proggies you like try server install + gnome-core + x-window-system-core
[05:46] <xtknight> Cuddles_Laptop: check out the 'dmesg' to see if you notice anything different from when pci=routeirq was not in there.  see if there's any irq stuff
[05:46] <Cuddles_Laptop> xtknight, possibly related.. when i try to reboot, the system just shuts down.
[05:46] <Cin> eternalswd: http://rafb.net/p/sRPAAC49.html
[05:46] <xtknight> Cuddles_Laptop: sounds like acpi problems, quite possibly related
[05:46] <rexxenexx> is there a reason why one comp would hide its hostname?
[05:46] <pwk> i got windows vista on my comp. now... and i wanna put ubntu on to daul boot.. can anyone help?
[05:47] <xtknight> Cuddles_Laptop: maybe there's a bug in your acpi chip or something.
[05:47] <starz> NineTeen67Comet dunno really i just thought i had heard of something.... perhaps my panic was later while trying to go to some runlevel ?
[05:47] <starz> pwk
[05:47] <starz> thats actually really easy
[05:47] <starz> 1. resize your windows partiton
[05:47] <pwk> windows part. alredy rsized
[05:47] <starz> 2. insert ubuntu install disk
[05:48] <NineTeen67Comet> starz: no problem .. I'm thinking I've got a hardware issue "somewhere" .. my other mobo won't even power up ..
[05:48] <starz> 3. install and make sure when it does the grub option it sees windows
[05:48] <Cuddles_Laptop> xtknight, wouldn't suprise me.
[05:48] <CanadianMan__> i can't a resolution beyond 640x480, i have higher ones defined in xorg.conf, i'm using nvidia drivers
[05:48] <starz> 3.a. if it doesnt see windows edit /boot/grub/menu.1st from linux and reboot to see both options
[05:48] <xtknight> Cuddles_Laptop: in that case, acpi=off nolapic and noapic options may help you.
[05:48] <eternalswd> Cin, it probably doesn't help that your driver is set to i810 rather than i915.  Make a backup of your xorg.conf and change the driver to i915 on line 72
[05:48] <pwk> will it see windows vista
[05:48] <starz> it should yeah
[05:48] <pwk> ok
[05:48] <pwk> thx..bbl
[05:48] <Cin> eternalswd, oh I see. okay
[05:48] <starz> CanadianMan__ open terminal:
[05:48] <Cuddles_Laptop> xtknight, thanks again. i'm off to wait for it to die again.
[05:49] <starz> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:49] <templarius> how do I install fglrx drivers?
[05:49] <xtknight> Cuddles_Laptop: benefits of having acpi on are few and far between anyway.  all it does is cause problems with old devices.  for newer cpus/ thermal management it can be needed, still no big deal
[05:49] <starz> make sure to select nvidia ^^;;
[05:49] <eternalswd> templarius, search ubuntuforums.org, there's plenty of guides there
[05:49] <templarius> yeah they are from june
[05:49] <templarius> I know there is more recent drivers than that
[05:49] <starz> you might wanna backup current xorg.conf first: sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
[05:49] <Cin> eternalswd, wish me luck :P
[05:50] <eternalswd> templarius, the guide still works, you might just need to change the fglrx version numbers in the commands
[05:50] <starz> CanadianMan__ we typically do support in chan instead of pm so that others can see and remember solutions for future.....
[05:50] <ubunturox> @_@ open
[05:51] <ubunturulesj00> lol
[05:51] <rexxenexx> Under the General tab in the Network settings window is what a DHCP server should take as a Hostname right?
[05:51] <ubunturulesj00> eh
[05:51] <christopher> Hey guys, I dual booted windows xp pro and ubunu 6.10
[05:51] <christopher> porblem is, windows now blue screens while loading.
[05:51] <starz> eh pwk how did that go
[05:51] <pwk> l
[05:51] <pwk> hi
[05:51] <pwk> before i go,
[05:51] <starz> christopher eh?
