[11:54] <Baversjo> outbackwifi: Gdm I think
[11:54] <artyg> If you're in the terminal, shift+pageup or shift+pagedown
[11:54] <carbonmonoxide> outbackwifi: additionally i  checked EKiga
[11:54] <gyuszk> what should I install ?
[11:54] <carbonmonoxide> the video works correctly in it

[11:54] <Baversjo> outbackwifi: sry shell ofc, I'm using ssh.
[11:54] <Ahtenus>  artyg: :)
[11:54] <outbackwifi> dida: my_hostname is just an example; put in something like <IP_ADDRESS> (which is a root server); it should work
[11:54] <OdnsRvns> is there a way to revery from intrepid to hardy
[11:55] <gyuszk> OdnsRvns, i dont think
[11:55] <gyuszk> reinstall from hardy cd
[11:55] <gyuszk> :)
[11:55] <OdnsRvns> lol without that
[11:55] <tyrian> i have a problem , i installed entrepid over hardy and now my dual-boot windows-xp wont start anymore ?
[11:55] <tyrian> can anyone care to help me out ?
[11:55] <roofel> Ouch tyrian xD
[11:56] <OdnsRvns> you try messing with the grub
[11:56] <tyrian> i installed grub to dev/sde
[11:56] <tyrian> didnt mess with it
[11:56] <OdnsRvns> i bet it just re wrote teh grub
[11:57] <carbonmonoxide> outbackwifi: When i click the test button , the preview is all green and scrambled
[11:57] <gyuszk> tyrian, how do you boot the system?
[11:57] <tyrian> when i try to run windows from grub it says  Loading ....
[11:57] <pindakaas117> I can I tell Ubuntu that it can write in /cdrom? (It's actually an USB pen)
[11:57] <OdnsRvns> and now it goes to access like sda1 and it inst that anymore
[11:57] <gyuszk> do you use grub from MBR?
[11:57] <OdnsRvns> no
[11:57] <tyrian> i installed grub in dev/sde
[11:57] <carbonmonoxide> outbackwifi: is the problem in skype related to the video drivers i use ?
[11:58] <tyrian> and thibk its the mbr
[11:58] <outbackwifi> carbonmonoxide: no
[11:58] <Axz> Guys why is Ubuntu 8.10 way to laggy then 8.04
[11:58] <Axz> how come?
[11:58] <OdnsRvns> i know it horrid
[11:58] <amdpox> Axz, it's faster here
[11:58] <roofel> I kinda got no lag Axz, I only when im installing updates, nothing more :P
[11:58] <artyg> Listening to 50's music and playing with Linux makes my face hurt.
[11:58] <Axz> well running on DualCore 64bit 5000+ with 5GB DDR2
[11:58]  * outbackwifi has no probs either on a eeepc 1000H
[11:58] <Axz> still laggy guys
[11:59] <amdpox> outbackwifi, 1000H-high-five :D
[11:59] <pindakaas117> How can I tell Ubuntu that it can write in /cdrom? Because it's actually an USB pen
[11:59] <roofel> Btw guys, anyone got a clue on how to increase the size Ubuntu can use when installed with Wubi? :)
[11:59] <OdnsRvns> maybe its uss 5000 x2 cuz i am choppy as well
[11:59] <artyg> pindakaas117: I'm trying to figure that out at the moment, myself.
[11:59] <Dr_Willis> pindakaas117:  you may want to mount that thing someplace other then /cdrom then.
[11:59] <Reilithion> So, does Open Source in general have an anthropomorphic personification?  Or does it generally just borrow Tux the penguin?
[11:59] <artyg> Open source: GNU gnu?
[11:59] <Dr_Willis> I noticed wheni installed from USB PenDrive. the installer made a extra *(wrong)* entry in fstab for a cdrom drive on sda. I had to correct that.
[12:00] <amdpox> GNU is hardly open-source in general though
[12:00] <tyrian> is there a grub configure tool for gnome ?   i need to mess with it
[12:00] <artyg> Well, maybe Torvald is a furry.
[12:00] <amdpox> there's BSD and a lot of other licenses out there
[12:00] <tyrian> get my dual-boot windows xp back :S
[12:00] <fosco__> tyrian: startupmanager
[12:00] <tyrian> ok ty
[12:00] <Axz> No i mean is there way to make it faster because i have Rhythmbox running after openning FireFox Rhythmbox begins to lag for few secs
[12:00] <Axz> kinda weird on such fast machine
[12:01] <amdpox> Axz, very weird
[12:01] <roofel> Maybe its TO fast? :P
[12:01] <outbackwifi> Axz: i have currently ff, rhythmbox, thunderbird, and skype working great
[12:01] <amdpox> any other processes running?
[12:01] <Axz> outbackwifi, that cool but any idea whats going on here?
[12:01] <tyrian> fosco_  startupmanager too limited , need to change paths to windows
[12:01] <carbonmonoxide> outbackwifi: can you tell me where to look for skype video issues
[12:01] <artyg> Problem: Trying to mount my USB drive from /dev/ into /cdrom, using mount -t vfat /dev/cdroms/cdrom (after ln -s ../sdc cdrom in /dev/cdroms), it's saying "no such file or directory"
[12:01] <Axz> amdpox, not that i know off...
[12:01] <outbackwifi> Axz: if youre experiencing jitters in audio; its because of pulseaudio
[12:01] <fosco__> tyrian: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst, unlimited :-)
[12:02]  * amdpox wishes the Ubuntu team would stop changing the audio stack
[12:02] <tyrian> ty ty
[12:02] <amdpox> it was finally stable in 8.04
[12:02] <carbonmonoxide> outbackwifi: i am looking at the skypevideo page in ubuntu hwlp website
[12:02] <outbackwifi> carbonmonoxide: sorry mate; can you try the skype forums out on skype
[12:02] <OdnsRvns> yea i might revert back to 8.04
[12:02] <carbonmonoxide> outbackwifi: thanks :)
[12:02] <Axz> guys any how to test my benchmark on ubuntu by any tool?

[12:02] <Axz> i'm really wana know whats making him so laggy
[12:02] <fosco__> Axz: execute gstreamer-properties and make sure you are using alsa, not pulse
[12:03] <Dr_Willis> artyg:  a pendrive would be like /dev/sda1 or /deb/sdb1 or similer named. device.
[12:03] <tyrian> oops
[12:03] <Don123> Did the URL tell you anything about the monitor Outbackwifi?
[12:03] <znh> Hello,
[12:03] <Axz> fosco__, oke will try that
[12:03] <znh> I use rhtymbox to listen to songs on Jamendo.. It takes horribly long to load the catalog on this old laptop.. so I wondered if there are tweaks or alternatives available?
[12:03] <tyrian> that map stuff doesnt look ok ?
[12:03] <Dr_Willis> artyg:  plug it in and check 'dmesg' command in terminal to see where its seen assigned to.
[12:03] <roofel> Question: Anyone know how to increase the virtual disk size on my Ubuntu? :) Currently using 5g but thinking of using about 15 instead :)
[12:03] <OdnsRvns> i am with axz its not only audio its everything
[12:04] <Axz> yeah
[12:04] <Axz> :/
[12:04] <outbackwifi> roofel: do you mean swap size?
[12:04] <roofel> Got no clue, installed using Wubi :D
[12:04] <outbackwifi> Don123: missed it mate, you need to address it to me
[12:04] <Axz> hmmz fosco__ indded startup of Firefox increased and no lagg :/
[12:04] <szaszka> Hi! I have a laptop with Intel Pentium Dual-Core Mobile Processor T2390, which version of ubuntu should I download, i386 or amd64?
[12:05] <Axz> how come?
[12:05] <nyp4life> quick question.. i deleted my bottom panel in ubuntu (hardy) and i want to add the section where it shows all your open apps to the top panel.. anybody know how?
[12:05] <sorsis> Why my flash apps go grey occasionally?
[12:05] <tyrian> any grub / dual-boot pro's here ?
[12:05] <Don123> Outbackwifi: http://pastebin.com/fb0a4b0b
[12:05] <OdnsRvns> amd64
[12:05] <Dr_Willis> szaszka:  you could use 32bit  for the least amount of hassles.. Unles you got a lot of ram.
[12:05] <sorsis> tyrian: don't ask to ask. spit out your problem.
[12:05] <roofel> sorsis, my screen goes gray from time to time aswell, but that is because im updating applications and such :P
[12:05] <znh> szaszka, i386 will do fine, athough 64bit is faster.. it's a pain in the a
[12:05] <Axz> Amd64 works perfect on Ubuntu 8.10
[12:05] <Axz> its only lag that bin fixd thanks to fosco__ now
[12:06] <fosco__> nothing at all
[12:06] <OdnsRvns> how you fix it
[12:06] <Dr_Willis> Ive not had any issues so far on 8.10 64bit.. which suprised me. :)
[12:06] <Axz> i think its the pulse
[12:06] <OdnsRvns> ???
[12:06] <pwk> hi, I installed 8.10 amd64 yeasterday, and I have the problem that my usb mouse and usb keyboard stop working when unplugging/replugging them a couple of times...only things that seems to help is to (a) reboot or (b) attach a different keyboard (to a different usb slot too)
[12:06] <szaszka> So amd64-bit will work just fine?
[12:06] <OdnsRvns> yea
[12:06] <outbackwifi> Don123: thats your video chip   23.
[12:06] <tyrian> problem:  i installed entrepid  (had hardy)  just formatted the hardy partitions , and used them for entrepid but now my windows xp wont start from grub ?!

[12:06] <nyp4life> quick question.. i deleted my bottom panel in ubuntu (hardy) and i want to add the section where it shows all your open apps to the top panel.. anybody know how?
[12:06] <Axz> OdnsRvns, <fosco__> Axz: execute gstreamer-properties and make sure you are using alsa, not pulse
[12:06] <Axz> worked fine
[12:07] <Axz> try it buddy
[12:07] <outbackwifi> nyp4life: add the window list applet to your top panel
[12:07] <Axz> just set it from AutoDetect to ALSA
[12:07] <fosco__> there are many things that can slow down ubuntu, pulse is one of them
[12:07] <OdnsRvns> where is gstreamer
[12:07] <Baversjo> outbackwifi: Did you know any way to write a message to the shell when a user is denied access in pam_limits?
[12:07] <Axz> OdnsRvns, juust Terminal > gstreamer-properties
[12:08] <vixey> hi
[12:08] <fosco__> OdnsRvns: execute ina a terminal, dude
[12:08] <nyp4life> outbackwifi: ahhhh there it is!! lol didn't see it the first time.. thanks!
[12:08] <Axz> hehe its easer mate
[12:08] <vixey> does anyone have a guide for getting emacs to support unicode?
[12:08] <pindakaas117> artyg & Dr_willis:  I found out that root CAN write in /cdrom, but once I tried to change it using sudo nautilus or sudo chmod 777 /cdrom nothing happens..
[12:08] <OdnsRvns> lol im a bit new srry
[12:08] <Axz> no problem everyone is new "[
[12:08] <Axz> :p
[12:08] <tyrian> locate fstab
[12:08] <artyg> I got my USB device to mount in /cdrom.
[12:08] <tyrian> oops
[12:08] <outbackwifi> Baversjo: if the user is at remote, then he hasnt got a shell yet (since he couldnt login)
[12:08] <amdpox> tyrian, this is not your xterm, also, /etc/fstab
[12:09] <pindakaas117> can you write init as a normal user?
[12:09] <fosco__> artyg: everytime or just now?
[12:09] <Baversjo> outbackwifi: n
[12:09] <Axz> fosco__, is this normal top - 13:09:04 up 23 min,  2 users,  load average: 0.97, 0.49, 0.42
[12:09] <Don123> Outbacwifi: So what do I do to fix the problem?
[12:09] <tyrian> is my dualboot windows xp  also mentioned in /etc/fstab
[12:09] <artyg> Well, it worked once O.o
[12:09] <tyrian> ?
[12:10] <outbackwifi> Don123: you need to check whether that s3 driver is the one your X server is using
[12:10] <fosco__> Axz: yeah, quite normal
[12:10] <fosco__> top - 13:10:34 up 15:14,  2 users,  load average: 0.57, 0.56, 0.69
[12:10] <fosco__> mine
[12:10] <tyrian> can i just uninstall grub and reinstall LILO ?  so it will detect my dualboot winXp correctly again ?
[12:10] <Don123> Outbackwifi:  Newbie here... how do I do that?
[12:11] <Baversjo> outbackwifi: No but I've seen Pam modules bypassing this and writing a message anyway. Or maybe I'm wrong?
[12:11] <outbackwifi> Don123: do this in a terminal sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-s3
[12:11] <hellues> hey
[12:11] <hellues> how can i set opendns
[12:11] <hellues> i cant find any suitable source
[12:11] <hellues> can you suggest one
[12:11] <OdnsRvns> well seems a bit better
[12:11] <Axz> yep[s
[12:12] <OdnsRvns> thanks you 2
[12:12] <outbackwifi> Baversjo: if it were at the machine itself, you couldve sent a message to stdout, but cant figure out how you would do that in ssh unless you changed it in code somehow
[12:12] <tyrian> how do i see all hds  by  hdd0   sde1   etc ?
[12:12] <artyg> Damn, my router is on the fritz.
[12:12] <tyrian> which file ?
[12:12] <OdnsRvns> now if i can find a reverse kvm my night will be made
[12:12] <Axz> only i ;m facing some problem when switching windows
[12:12] <Axz> from firefox to other one
[12:12] <outbackwifi> tyrian: sudo fdisk -l
[12:12] <tyrian> ty
[12:12] <OdnsRvns> you using compiz
[12:13] <Axz> OdnsRvns, no
[12:13] <Baversjo> outbackwifi: Ok thx
[12:14] <Axz> i mean Visual Effects are turned off
[12:14] <OdnsRvns> hmm weird
[12:14] <Axz> i do use a Theme
[12:14] <tyrian> ok back to opensuse , anyone know best prog to burn images with ?
[12:14] <Axz> not Ubuntu's standard one
[12:14] <OdnsRvns> shouldnt matter i wouldnt think
[12:15] <Axz> yeah even with such performances :/
[12:15] <Don123> Outbackwifi: Should I reboot now?
[12:15] <outbackwifi> tyrian: brasero
[12:15] <outbackwifi> Don123: you just need to press ctl+alt+backspace to restart the X server
[12:15] <effie_jayx> hey all .. I am currently trying to share a folder using virtualbox ose, my question is , I need to have guest addition in the guest machine?
[12:16] <effie_jayx> guest-addtions being the tools for mount the vboxsf
[12:16] <Dr_Willis> effie_jayx:   you install on the 'os inside the virtualbox system' yes...
[12:16] <spunk> effie_jayx: yes, if you are to use VB's concept of shared folders.
[12:16] <outbackwifi> Axz: can you check what glxinfo says? is it using software acceleration or hardware
[12:16] <Dr_Willis> They really should use a differnt term then 'share' :)
[12:17] <Axz> sure outbackwifi sec
[12:17] <effie_jayx> Dr_Willis,  right...
[12:17] <pindakaas117> how do I make sure that files such as /etc/fstab and sudoers don't return to default after reboot?
[12:17] <OdnsRvns> does anyone know if it is possible to use 2 keybourds and mice if i have a virtual os runnigg
[12:17] <pindakaas117> on my Live usb-stick tat is
[12:17] <nachi_> hey. ive created a nameservers on my dedicated server, im using webmin and ubuntu 8, i got about 10 domains and i want to host them, i pointed them to my nameservers, now, i need to bind each domain to A name server or just make virtual domain or what?
[12:18] <Axz> outbackwifi, http://pastebin.com/m15d6b31f
[12:19] <outbackwifi> Axz: you seem to be ok in that department :)
[12:19] <Baversjo> outbackwifi: Do you know anyway to logout an old user if a new one with the same username tries to connect in PAM?
[12:19] <suskun0027> slm
[12:19] <outbackwifi> pindakaas117: you need to create a persistent image
[12:20] <outbackwifi> Baversjo: cant say i do; havent played with PAM for a long time now
[12:20] <Baversjo> outbackwifi: k
[12:20] <Don123> Outbackwifi:  That didn't change anything.  It still gives me the virtual screen when I put it into 1440x900.
[12:20] <suskun0027> alooo
[12:21] <pindakaas117> outbackwifi: and  you happen to know how to do that? :)
[12:21] <outbackwifi> Baversjo: you should be looking to do this in ssh though and not PAM
[12:21] <artyg> Okay, I've got my USB stick mounted as /cdrom, but the Ubuntu installer keeps saying that it doesn't read.
[12:21] <outbackwifi> Don123: can you pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[12:21] <wizkoder1> I use kdesvn on kde. what to use with gnome and nautilus?
[12:22] <DIFH-iceroot> wizkoder1: qsvn is much better
[12:22] <DIFH-iceroot> wizkoder1: but you have to build from surce
[12:22] <EugenMayer> iam trying to install the restricted ati drivers. but i get a dkms error :http://paste2.org/p/98969
[12:22] <EugenMayer> any ideas?
[12:22] <amdpox> but you need a gui tool to get that source from svn
[12:22] <amdpox> and you die in a pool of vicious circleness.
[12:23] <wizkoder1> does it integrate into nautilus?
[12:23] <outbackwifi> pindakaas117: this is for an older distro but i guess the process is the same http://www.pcmech.com/article/ubuntu-804-persistent-install-to-usb-stick/
[12:23] <DIFH-iceroot> wizkoder1: no
[12:23] <DIFH-iceroot> wizkoder1: its a standalone svn client
[12:23] <pindakaas117> outbackwifi: k thanks I will look into it
[12:24] <amdpox> wizardyesterday, try nautilus-script-collection-svn - Nautilus subversion management scripts
[12:24] <afflux> EugenMayer: pastebin /var/lib/dkms/fglrx/8.542/build/make.log please
[12:24] <amdpox> wizkoder1, even
[12:24] <fez> when i run compiz, i get an error about not being able to load libpcre.so.0
[12:25] <fez> what package contains libpcre.so.0
[12:25] <outbackwifi> !info libpcre | fez
[12:25] <outbackwifi> !info libpcre3 | fez
[12:26] <EugenMayer> afflux: http://paste2.org/p/98970
[12:26] <outbackwifi> fez: its already installed since its in 'required'
[12:26] <afflux> fez: ubuntu only has pcre3, which is newer than libpcre0
[12:26] <EugenMayer> afflux: iam googliing arround and it seems like the current amd driver 8.10 is not working with intrepid ( xorg version =
[12:26] <fez> outbackwifi, yes, i have package libpcre3 installed, however, when I run compiz, it says it cannot load libpcre.so.0 and fails to metacity
[12:26] <fez> why is that
[12:27] <EugenMayer> afflux: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Intrepid_Installation_Guide#Installing%20the%20restricted%20drivers%20manually%20%20Installing%20the%20restricted%20drivers%20manually
[12:27] <EugenMayer> *sorry*
[12:27] <fez> running 8.04.1
[12:27] <EugenMayer> what a guge zrl..
[12:27] <outbackwifi> fez: oh ok
[12:27] <afflux> EugenMayer: I heard the same, not sure though whether that was the latest news
[12:27] <fez> compiz workef fine *yestersday*, did a simple shutdown, restart, now it fails, have tried rebooting and reinstalling the package
[12:27] <fez> whyt did ubuntu decide to fail
[12:27] <zbyszek> hi how can i install gnome in kubuntu 8.10?
[12:28] <afflux> EugenMayer: let me do some research
[12:28] <pfaqes> hi
[12:28] <afflux> zbyszek: sudo aptitude install gnome-desktop
[12:28] <afflux> zbyszek: err
[12:28] <afflux> zbyszek: ubuntu-desktop that is
[12:28] <FreeFull> zbyszek: install the ubuntu-desktop package
[12:28] <fez> also, libpcre.so.0 is not part of libpcre3.  that has libpcre.so.3 only
[12:28] <fez> what package contains libpcre.so.0
[12:28] <fez> why does compiz want it
[12:28] <zbyszek> FreeFull  afflux thanks
[12:28] <FreeFull> fez: have you tried libpcre0?
[12:29] <fez> is therse such a package?
[12:29] <fez> could not find package libpcre0
[12:29] <fosco__> libpcre3
[12:29] <FreeFull> There is libpcre++0
[12:30] <tony_> I'm having a problem finding a package:libboost-date-time1.34.1. Any ideas?
[12:30] <amdpox> tony_, uh, it's in the repositories
[12:30] <fez> i installed apt-file, according to that , libpcre.so.0 is not part of libpcre3, libpcrecpp0, libpcre3-dev, libpcre++0, or libpcre++-dev
[12:31] <scensis> hey, anyone wanna help me with wine?:p
[12:31] <FreeFull> scensis: There is ##wine-hq
[12:31] <scensis> ah, thanks
[12:31] <fez> according to apt-file, libpcre.so.0 does not exist in *ANY* package, so why does compiz die on that file?
[12:31] <tony_> amdpox, I have an old imac running Dapper. It cannt find it with apt-get
[12:31] <jrib> tony_: pastebin what happens when you try to install it after running 'sudo apt-get update'.  Also pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:32] <amdpox> tony_, ah, right
[12:32] <amdpox> You may need to find sources and compile it, but dependency hell may ensue
[12:32] <amdpox> is upgrading feasible?
[12:32] <fez> well
[12:32] <fez> in any case
[12:32] <EugenMayer> afflux: what xorg version does intrepid has?
[12:33] <Bergcube> Evolution: I want to use Evolution to read USENET. I do not want it as my email client. Evolution insists on me setting up an email account. How can I bypass this?
[12:33] <fez> i did ln -s libpcre.so.3 libpcre.so.0, and that made compiz work
[12:33] <afflux> fez: 7.4
[12:33] <jrib> tony_: that version does not exist in dapper.  dapper has libboost-date-time1.33.1
[12:33] <afflux> EugenMayer: ^^
[12:33] <tony_> I tried Hardy but it wont install.
[12:33] <fez> i would however like to know why compiz believes that libpcre.so.0 should exist
[12:33] <effie_jayx> vbox's way of sharing folders is painfully frustrating... is there an easier way to share files?
[12:33] <afflux> fez: in a normal isntall, it doesn't.
[12:33] <fez> afflux, thi is a normal install, ubuntu 8.04.1
[12:33] <sabalord> fyi: this is not a online dating service
[12:34] <fez> why did compiz want that file
[12:34] <jrib> effie_jayx: you can just use samba
[12:34] <effie_jayx> jrib, I'll try that thanks
[12:34] <Don123> Outbackwifi:  Apparently I've forgotten the correct syntax.  Can you give me the pastebin command on that?
[12:34] <tony_> jrib, I want to view youtube vids and trying to install gnash, ant other ideas on Flash?
[12:34] <outbackwifi> Don123: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit
[12:34] <EugenMayer> afflux: so there must be a 8.10 beta driver for 7.4 as far as i can read
[12:35] <jrib> tony_: just install flashplugin-nonfree from dapper-backports
[12:35] <rempeths> hello ubuntu friends
[12:35] <artyg> Hello rempeths.
[12:35] <jrib> tony_: ah wait, you're on ppc?
[12:35] <tony_> Yes
[12:35] <tony_> I think I'm beat...
[12:35] <Ohkie> hi im running ubuntu hardy..... what (if anything) do i need to do to upgrade to intrepid? How can i confirm I am running intrepid?
[12:35] <pfaqes> plkzq;mzn,lfakz^lùzEkfùolzkfêùkfz^p$sqfl$
[12:35] <pfaqes> zemro^zakpeâkl
[12:35] <afflux> EugenMayer: at least one person over at #ubuntu-de got fglrx running without issues. I remember having the issues in the pre-release time on a different machine, I'm checking now.
[12:36] <pfaqes> porefo^z
[12:36] <jrib> tony_: you need to do some compiling then.  Or try to sort out your install troubles with hardy
[12:36] <jrib> pfaqes: english please
[12:36] <amdpox> Ohkie, alt-f2 and then "gksudo update-manager --dist-upgrade"
[12:36] <outbackwifi> Ohkie: press alt-f2; in that dialog type update-manager -d and enter; after a couple of hours you may be in ibex
[12:36] <jrib> -d shouldn't be necessary after intrepid has been released
[12:37] <afflux> EugenMayer: note that you're not using the latest kernel sources. Can you please install fglrx-kernel-source 8.543-0ubuntu4?
[12:37] <artyg> Wow, making a USB installer for Ubuntu in Windows takes a longcat time.
[12:37] <EugenMayer> afflux: i use the latest ones ?
[12:37] <amdpox> longcat time is long
[12:37] <artyg> I know, looooooong.
[12:37] <EugenMayer> afflux: install fglrx-kernel-sources is what fails
[12:37] <artyg> It's unpacking all the files from the main cab.
[12:38] <Ohkie> outback: I've run that command and it says my system is up to date?
[12:38] <artyg> Probably to spite me.
[12:38] <tony_> jrib, when I try to install hardy, I get through the install, it reboots then shuts off. You turn it back on..it gets thru yaboot... screen turns white then it shuts off.
[12:38] <Ohkie> amdpox: nothing seems to happen when i run that command?
[12:38] <afflux> EugenMayer: the logs you're showing show 8.542 instead of .543. Note that .542 has never been published with ubuntu. Sounds like you're using non-ubuntu packages.
[12:38] <afflux> EugenMayer: I'm off for lunch for half an hour or so.
[12:38] <outbackwifi> Ohkie: type lsb_release -a in a terminal; that should tell you if youre on ibex or hardy
[12:38] <jrib> tony_: but the desktop cd is loading fine?
[12:38] <Ohkie> still on 8.04
[12:38] <tony_> alternate install cd
[12:38] <Bloc> helllo
[12:39] <jrib> tony_: you ran "check the cd for defects"?
[12:39] <amdpox> Ohkie, that's because I screwed the syntax
[12:39] <jA_cOp> Have I come to the right place for some ubuntu installation help? If not, could someone point me in the right direction? :)
[12:39] <Ohkie> :)
[12:39] <Bloc> vmware for ubuntu 8.04 link
[12:39] <Bloc> ?
[12:39] <jrib> jA_cOp: you're in the right place
[12:39] <artyg> jA_cOp: I hope so.
[12:39] <amdpox> Ohkie, "gksudo update-manager -- --dist-upgrade"
[12:39] <jA_cOp> nice
[12:39] <Bergcube> Evolution: I want to use Evolution to read USENET. I do not want it as my email client. Evolution insists on me setting up an email account. How can I bypass this?
[12:39] <tony_> jrib, yes and re-burnt it several times.
[12:39] <outbackwifi> amdpox: even if you dont give a gksudo it prompts you later on
[12:40] <jrib> tony_: tried intrepid?
[12:40] <amdpox> outbackwifi, damn ubuntu has to be all user-friendly
[12:40] <Ohkie> amdpox: says my system is up to date, yet running lsb_release -a says im running release 8.04?
[12:40] <tony_> jrib: Same thing
[12:40] <jA_cOp> Ok I am using UNetbootin from windows, and I got Ubuntu 8.10_live and am on the Live CD at the moment. The installer does not find any of my hard drive partitions, am I supposed to use gparted beforehand to free up space?
[12:41] <outbackwifi> amdpox: :)
[12:41] <jrib> tony_: you're using the community ppc port right?
[12:41] <Ohkie> amdpox: oh wait. i clicked check and it gave me an error after downloading some files: W: GPG error: http://packages.medibuntu.org hardy Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 2EBC26B60C5A2783
[12:41] <oz7t> test
[12:42] <amdpox> Ohkie, remove medibuntu from your Software Sources
[12:42] <Ohkie> amdpox: cool
[12:42] <tony_> jrib: Xubuntu
[12:42] <Don123> Outbackwifi:  It says something about it being a 'pre-release version'.  http://pastebin.com/f647226c6
[12:43] <Bogaurd_> I'm trying to setup my crypttab for use with cryptsetup.. I need to set some environment vars - how can I set these so that they will take effect on bootup?
[12:43] <jA_cOp> Why is the resize option grayed out on the device with the boot flag? I want to free up space for the install on it.
[12:43] <fosco__> jA_cOp: it has to be unmounted
[12:43] <pedro_> !nvidia
[12:43] <v|kt0r> why this: http://is.gd/6M12 isn't working for me ?
[12:43] <jrib> tony_: where are you getting the disk aimage?
[12:44] <jrib> tony_: image even
[12:44] <jA_cOp> fosco__: What is a mounted drive?
[12:44] <jA_cOp> I see the mount/unmount options
[12:45] <fosco__> mounted partition is an accessible one, unmounted partitions are not accessible
[12:45] <pedro_> hey
[12:45] <tony_> I googled "Xubuntu ppc for imac" and someone had a link to an old ubuntu page that had it
[12:45] <v|kt0r> anyone to help me ?
[12:45] <pedro_> how do I configure NVIDIA driver?
[12:45] <fosco__> pedro_: execute nvidia-settings
[12:46] <jA_cOp> fosco__: I happen to want to free up space on the drive with the /cdrom mountpoint on it, but it won't unmount due to being busy. Is this impossible while on the Live CD? I have really no other way to use gparted atm
[12:46] <pedro_> Section "Device"
[12:46] <pedro_>         Identifier      "Configured Video Device"
[12:46] <pedro_> EndSection
[12:46] <pedro_> where is that "Configured Video Device"?
[12:46] <v|kt0r> how to stop entering default keyring each login ?
[12:46] <jrib> tony_: you could try with the regular ubuntu disk to see if it mattered.  That one probably gets more testing
[12:46] <jrib> tony_: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/intrepid/release/
[12:46] <outbackwifi> Don123: your video driver is loading ok; its your monitor thats not letting  you get into higher resolution
[12:47] <fosco__> jA_cOp: there are many ways to get a partition unmounted, liveCD is a good way
[12:47] <PixelSmack> what package is the cleanup tool in intrepid?
[12:47] <Ohkie> amdpox: ok removed medibuntu. its now saying my system is up-to-date again :/
[12:47] <nachi_> once i have dns server ns1. and ns2. on my server i dont need to add to each domain somthing on bind section? just make it on apache config?
[12:48] <Don123> Outbackwifi:  1440x900 is the monitor's native resolution.  How do I fix it?
[12:48] <amdpox> Ohkie, system -> admin -> software sources -> updates tab -> release upgrade, what is selected there?
[12:48] <tony_> jrib: I'll try that THANKS!!
[12:48] <jA_cOp> fosco__: I'm not actually using a physical CD, I'm using the UNetbootin tool to emulate it and let it boot the Live CD from my hard drive. So I'd have to free up space on a different drive than the Live CD is on?
[12:48] <jA_cOp> different parition*
[12:48] <pedro_> how do I install nvidia driver?
[12:49] <jrib> pedro_: system -> administration -> hardware drivers
[12:49] <outbackwifi> Don123: do you remember/can you find out your monitor's horizontal and vertical refresh rates?
[12:49] <pedro_> jrib, there is NOTHING there
[12:49] <Ohkie> amdpox: long term support releases only
[12:49] <amdpox> ah, there''s the issue :)
[12:49] <amdpox> Ohkie, change it to "normal releases"
[12:49] <fosco__> jA_cOp: sorry, but i don't know your needings
[12:49] <amdpox> then you should be able to upgrade
[12:49] <jrib> pedro_: did you read the release notes about nvidia?
[12:49] <IxoRai> HOYGAN KE HES HUVUNTU?
[12:49] <rkpisanu> pedro_, easy way sudo apt-get install envyng-gtk   Applications --> System Tools --> EnvyNG
[12:50] <jA_cOp> fosco__: Ok sorry, thanks for the help! :)
[12:50] <Ohkie> amdpox: cheers mate :)
[12:50] <jrib> IxoRai: what language?
[12:50] <IxoRai> Turkish, please
[12:50] <outbackwifi> !tr
[12:50] <pedro_> jrib, yes, that's nonsense
[12:50] <jrib> pedro_: what's nonsense?  Does it apply to you?
[12:50] <IxoRai> Thanks
[12:51] <pedro_> jrib, Ubuntu NVIDIA's support is confuse
[12:51] <jrib> pedro_: you didn't answer my question :/
[12:52] <pedro_> jrib, well, I installed it ok, but it isn't showed up in the hardware drivers
[12:52] <Ohkie> amdpox: interesting. your version with the --dist-upgrade doesnt seem to show that 8.10 is available, but outbackwifi's -d did. just thought you'd wanna know? Thanks for your help guys :)
[12:52] <pedro_> and running is completely buggy
[12:52] <jrib> pedro_: does the nvidia section in the release notes apply to you?
[12:53] <amdpox> Ohkie, you would have needed to throw a -c in for mine to work, it had to check
[12:53] <pedro_> where is it
[12:53] <Ohkie> amdpox: cool. thanks man. :) catcha!
[12:53] <jrib> pedro_: you told me you had read them when I asked you before...
[12:53] <jrib> !notes > pedro_
[12:55] <rkpisanu>
[12:55] <rkpisanu> Someone has successfully installed maniadrive on ubuntu 8.10 64-bit?
[12:55] <outbackwifi> rkpisanu: that sounds dangerous !
[12:55] <rkpisanu> yeah
[12:55] <artyg> Will regular Debian drivers work in Ubuntu?
[12:56] <outbackwifi> rkpisanu: whats a maniadrive
[12:56] <fosco__> artyg: no
[12:56] <artyg> Curses, stupid generic Kernel drivers.
[12:56] <jrib> artyg: "regular debian drivers"?  What's wrong with the drivers ubuntu provides?
[12:56] <outbackwifi> artyg: its not about debian or ubuntu; drivers are part of the kernel and should work anywhere
[12:56] <artyg> Because apparently Ubuntu is not chock-full of Realtek 8187 drivers.
[12:57] <Don123> Outbackwifi:  No clue on the h/v refresh rates.  It is a relatively new monitor but I've moved and the manual is lost.  I still don't understand why 7.10 worked fine with it and 8.04.1 doesn't.
[12:57] <rkpisanu> maniadrive is a game similar to track mania
[12:57] <rkpisanu> the issue is library
[12:57] <outbackwifi> rkpisanu: oh ok.  i'm not into games sorry
[12:57] <j2daosh> ok, i gots a problem guys
[12:58] <rkpisanu> ok thanks outbackwifi
[12:58] <j2daosh> im trying to SSH into my home system, i have 3 different boxes at home i can SSH into, but all are on different ports
[12:58] <outbackwifi> Don123: can you pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf please
[12:58] <artyg> If you got a problem, we'll solve it, check out the beat while the DJ revolves it.
[12:58] <j2daosh> SSH doesn't seem to care though and thinks that someone is doing a man in the middle because the keys aren't matching
[12:58] <j2daosh> anyway i can turn off this "strict checking" of the RSA key?
[12:58] <werdna> yeah
[12:59] <werdna> but you should probably just delete the key from known_hosts
[12:59] <outbackwifi> j2daosh: thats because you're portforwarding; just go into the .known_hosts file in each box and delete the offending key
[12:59] <mikethk> I have a problem with mounting externall devices from windows? I have tried alot
[12:59]  * werdna suffocates on carbon_monoxide
[13:00] <outbackwifi> mikethk: this is a ubuntu support channel
[13:00] <mikethk> I know. I have ubuntu, cant mount devices used in windows
[13:00] <photon> Hello. Out of a sudden I have no sound anymore in Ubuntu. Just 20 mins ago I could play music files, now I have no sound, not even in System->Prefs->Sound-> Test. What can I do?
[13:00] <ziroday`> mikethk: any errors?
[13:00] <outbackwifi> mikethk: what error do you get?
[13:01] <artyg> "Out of a sudden" - I'm remembering this phrase.
[13:01] <leohartx> what is best graphic card for ubuntu ?
[13:01] <mikethk> you are not privileged to mount this device
[13:01] <outbackwifi> photon: first thing to check is 'check for unplugged speaker'
[13:01] <photon> outbackwifi: where would I do that?
[13:02] <javajeff> chuckmoney: how's it going?  good to see you again!
[13:02] <jA_cOp> Anyone here used Unetbootin or anything other virtual mounting of the Live CD to install Ubuntu?
[13:02] <jA_cOp> any*
[13:02] <outbackwifi> mikethk: the easiest way to circumvent that is to install pmount and add the devices to /etc/pmount.allow
[13:02] <iman_> I have a question: can i put a pci-e 2 graphics card in an abit ip35 pro?
[13:02] <photon> artyg: good for you.
[13:02] <artyg> jA_cOp: I'm working on that right now.
[13:02] <mikethk> I have installed pmount, how do i do the last add thing?
[13:02] <artyg> iman: PCIe 2.0 is backwards compatible with the original specification, just doesn't have the same speed.
[13:02] <jA_cOp> artyg: Same. I found that I cannot unmount the drive the Live CD is mounted on, so I'm back on Windows to clean up my other partition instead.
[13:02] <outbackwifi> mikethk: gksu gedit /etc/pmount.allow
[13:02] <iman_> ok, good
[13:02] <leohartx> what is best graphic card for ubuntu ?
[13:03] <Iradieh> Does anyone know how I can add a screen and other applications on autostart on Xubuntu?
[13:03] <ziroday`> !best | leohartx
[13:03] <DasEI> !best|leohartx:
[13:03] <outbackwifi> Iradieh: in your .xstartuprc file i think
[13:03] <DasEI> leohartx: running hardy ?
[13:04]  * Jos_ is missing plain old xchat in the intepid repo
[13:04] <outbackwifi> leohartx: i would first check out the ubuntu hardware compatibility list to see if its supported
[13:04] <leohartx> DasEl:no, intrepid
[13:04] <outbackwifi> !hcl | leohartex
[13:04] <javajeff> evga 9600gt is affordable and runs great!
[13:04] <sken> does anybody know the default settings for skype in ubuntu?
[13:04] <iman_> the next question is this then: I have around $200 for a graphics card. I do lots of 3d modeling, and I know the gpu isn't used during rendering (yet, open cl might change that) but when I'm setting things up it is really slow. I have around 2000 dominoes that are all transparent, and a preview
[13:04] <iman_> what shoudl I get?
[13:04] <sken> because my microfone doesn't work
[13:04] <artyg> iman_: Ask me to render it for you X-D
[13:04] <mikethk> It tells me that it will allow users to mount all devces listed here. But noone is listed
[13:05] <|neon|> how can i get my desktop settings to stay, when i changed them they look ok, however every time i reboot i loose them, any way that i can make them stick, i tried session manager without luck thx
[13:05] <Iradieh> outbackwifi: some are terminal applications
[13:05] <DasEI> leohartx:some ati's are still hard (9500-x600), nvidia is better supported right now
[13:05] <iman_> I have an evga 9600 gt, and am thinking of an 9800
[13:05] <outbackwifi> sken: in options, change from pulse to alsa etc and try
[13:05] <xiangfu> what is benchmark in a software project?
[13:05] <mikethk> outbackwifi can i write to you so it shows ini red? as you do to me?
[13:05] <jA_cOp> mikethk: Is that in the installer or gparted?
[13:05] <DasEI> Jos: its in the repos
[13:05] <iman_> artyg: I use blender (a renderfarm) and it takes around 900 days in cpu seconds
[13:05] <leohartx> outbackwifi:ok, i'll change my question: which graphic cards are highest compatible with ubuntu ?
[13:05] <outbackwifi> mikethk: sure just type the first few characters of my nick and press tab
[13:05] <artyg> What's your CPU?
[13:06] <javajeff> I bought the 9600gt when it first came out.  I may get a 9800gt as well
[13:06] <Iradieh> I need to put a setup up, where I want screen to start with screen -DRU command there I want it to start some screens and applications for me.  Like start screen 1, start irssi, screen 2 start rtorrent you get the idea
[13:06] <iman_> I have a quad core
[13:06] <javajeff> any news on getting an MS vx3000 webcam to work in 8.10?
[13:06] <outbackwifi> leohartx: have you seen the hcl at all?
[13:06] <jA_cOp> Nvidia drivers are better at the moment, I think. Do correct me if ATI has caught up. Using ATI myself.
[13:06] <iman_> q9700
[13:06] <dbugger> Hello people
[13:06] <artyg> It's running multithreaded with any possible SIMD instructions turned on, right?
[13:06] <javajeff> nvidia drivers have been better since the history of the video card competition.
[13:07] <mikethk> jA_cOp, ? ot sure what you mean.... I typed /etc/pmount.allow and a window shows up
[13:07] <dbugger> I have a problem. yesterday Rythymbox collapsed and now my laptop speakers only make a cracking noise.... any idea how can I fix it? I already reinstall "pulseaudio" and didnt work
[13:07] <jA_cOp> mikethk: Sorry, thought you were doing something else.
[13:07] <Don123> Outback: http://pastebin.com/f2edc41e8
[13:07] <leohartx> outbackwifi:it has just finished loading :)
[13:07] <outbackwifi> mikethk: type that command in a terminal
[13:07] <iman_> i'm thinking of an evga 9800 gt but is there anything faster for $200 give or take $20
[13:07] <mikethk> outbackwifi, k. Well i get ths window that tells me i can mount all listed devices but nothing is listed
[13:08] <outbackwifi> mikethk: you need to add your devices there, save and exit
[13:08] <artyg> jA_cOp: Want to know if I can get Ubuntu on USB to work at some point?
[13:08] <DasEI> iman_:join #hardware
[13:08] <Iradieh> I need to put a setup up, where I want screen to start with screen -DRU command after boot there I want it to start some screens and applications for me.  Like start screen 1, start irssi, screen 2 start rtorrent you get the idea.
[13:08] <mikethk> outbackwifi, how to add the device?
[13:08] <jA_cOp> artyg: UNetbootin lets you make a USB device bootable
[13:08] <mikethk> outbackwifi, im pefectly noob :)
[13:08] <outbackwifi> mikethk: just follow the example that is commented out
[13:09] <Chousuke> Iradieh: you need the screen -m switch
[13:09] <artyg> Yeah, UNetbootin also doesn't take care of the small things that make the Ubuntu install possible from USB.
[13:09] <Iradieh> Chousuke: what does m do?
[13:09] <Chousuke> Iradieh: the screen man page will tell you more
[13:09] <Baversjo> outbackwifi: Hey again, I think that stdout is redirected to the sshd. In Pam I can enable/disable the module for displaying motd and when i disable it I don't get any motd when loggin into ssh anymore. So I think that if a module stdout something it will show up in my ssh-session :D So I ask agian, is there anyway to print the pam_limits error to the shell instead of outputing it to the log? :D
[13:09] <Iradieh> Chousuke: I try to read it, its long
[13:09] <Chousuke> Iradieh: use the search
[13:09] <jA_cOp> Yeah artyg, the only thing it seems really useful for at the moment is fixing the boot loader so you can load the Live CD from a hard drive
[13:10] <artyg> iman_: You might want to look up reasonably-priced FireGL's or Quadro's if you render a lot.
[13:10] <outbackwifi> mikethk: add the devices by their name like /dev/sdb1 etc
[13:10] <mikethk> outbackwifi, but i dont know the name on the device
[13:10] <Iradieh> Chousuke: you mean -d -m like starts one, but doesnt attach?
[13:10] <outbackwifi> mikethk: sudo fdisk -l  or looking at dmesg should tell you
[13:11] <Chousuke> Iradieh: yeah
[13:11] <Yuji1> How would one go about using a system pre-bias for tone and treble?
[13:11] <dbugger> I hope I dont have to reinstall ubuntu
[13:12] <outbackwifi> Baversjo: motd shows up *after* logging in i.e a tty has been assigned to the user not before
[13:12] <sken> does anybody know the default settings for skype
[13:12] <Yuji1> Like, a control panel for treble/bass.
[13:12] <sken> i mean for audio
[13:12] <NBrepresent> hello, can someone please help me fix my desktop? for some reason it now appears to be my home folder.
[13:12] <mikethk> outbackwifi, I guees the name is /dev/sdb1 then.... Where to add? in terminal ?
[13:12] <outbackwifi> mikethk: yes inside that file
[13:12] <Chousuke> Iradieh: basically, you'll want to write a screenrc with multiple "screen" commands in it to start multiple windows, then run screen -md -c customscreenrc in some startup script
[13:13] <technopagan> sken: I can tell you what works for me if that helps?!
[13:13] <Don123> Outbackwifi: http://pastebin.com/f2edc41e8
[13:13] <Baversjo> outbackwifi: Ye, but the pam_limits module is also shown in the tty
[13:13] <Chousuke> Iradieh: http://sunsite.ualberta.ca/Documentation/Gnu/screen-3.9.4/html_chapter/screen_6.html
[13:13] <sken> ok tell me
[13:13] <|Dreams|> hw do i run a c program from the shell>?
[13:13] <technopagan> sken:
[13:13] <NBrepresent> i read about a hack here http://lifehacker.com/5067996/some-productive-ubuntu-kung-fu that does that, but i never tried it... just for some reason i turned on the comp this morning and everything in my home folder is on my desktop. Also, the places link in nautilus to the desktop actuallyi points to the home folder.
[13:13] <Yuji1> Any one know of any control panel or applet or any thing that can change system-wide treble/bass? Ubuntu has...odd sound workings.
[13:13] <Chousuke> |Dreams|: if it's in path, just type its name and it'll be run.
[13:14] <jA_cOp> |Dreams|: If not, type the path and the name
[13:14] <mikethk> outbackwifi, after opening the gksu gedit /etc/pmount.allow i got this window.... I add it there?
[13:14] <technopagan> sken: I've set everything in Audio to "Pulse" and unchecked "Automatically configure audio" beneath
[13:14] <|Dreams|> so like just type abgx360.c
[13:14] <jrib> |Dreams|: first you compile the source code (gcc -Wall -o my_program my_program.c), then you can execute the resulting binary as usual (./my_program)
[13:14] <artyg> Yuji1: If you use ALSA, maybe http://alsa-eq-plugin.sourceforge.net ?
[13:14] <outbackwifi> Don123: sorry, i saw that file; you need to put in the values for your monitor in that Monitor section on line 36
[13:14] <outbackwifi> mikethk: yes
[13:14] <Chousuke> |Dreams|: no. that's not a C program :p
[13:14] <Yuji1> oh thats right, EQ thats what I meant.
[13:14] <Yuji1> And yeah ALSA.
[13:14] <Chousuke> |Dreams|: that's a C source file. you can't run them
[13:14] <technopagan> sken: Please make sure that your mic is ready to record in the Volume-settings
[13:15]  * Yuji1 checks it out.
[13:15] <artyg> I just googled it, so don't expect much.
[13:15] <lyhana8> Hi, why do my scim-panel looj ugly ?
[13:15] <jA_cOp> |Dreams|: You need to compile to an executable file first
[13:15] <Yuji1> It'll help I bet.
[13:15] <rober1> hello guys
[13:15] <sken> where are the volume settings?
[13:15] <Yuji1> Better than nothing, so still thank you.
[13:15] <RandomCake> Hi, I've got Ubuntu and Vista dual booting, I've just installed DSL and need to add it to Grub, it's on hda4, so what should I put into menu.lst? :S
[13:15] <technopagan> sken: I mean the volume setings of Ubuntu
[13:15] <|Dreams|> how do i do that
[13:15] <Chousuke> |Dreams|: often, compiling is as easy as ./configure && make && make install
[13:15] <Chousuke> |Dreams|: but not always
[13:15] <|Dreams|> ther is no configure or make
[13:15] <Kate_Mins> Hello , I need help please , i am trying to compile old package of NLP tool for my research , in the instructions :  In order to compile on Unix, you should clean them of the "Line Feed" (^M) characters. You can do this automatically using the command unzip -aa , because its very old package (i think from 1998-9) i dont know if the unzip -aa its correct ?
[13:16] <lyhana8> Hi, why do my only scim-panel (gtk) looj ugly ?
[13:16] <Don123> Outbackwifi:  Newbie here... how do I do that?
[13:16] <Chousuke> |Dreams|: in that case, you'll have to read any README or INSTALL files included with the source and figure out how to compile it.
[13:16] <sken> doesn't say here something about microphone
[13:16] <|Dreams|> there isnt any either haha
[13:16] <rober1> can sobebody tell me if ubuntu 8.10 supports the atheros ar5008 xspan?
[13:16] <technopagan> sken: Right-click on the speaker-icon in your tray and choose the second possibility beneath "Mute"
[13:16] <mikethk> outbackwifi, possible you can tell me what to write from start to end... I just under the listed here, added /dev/dsb1
[13:16] <Chousuke> |Dreams|: in that case, I think it's beyond your skills to compile it.
[13:17] <notrust_nopain> hello ?
[13:17] <artyg> And I shall now attempt to run an Ubuntu Intrepid installer from a USB drive. *Drumroll*
[13:17] <jA_cOp> |Dreams|: if it's a simple program, try just running it through a C compiler
[13:17] <notrust_nopain> can any one see me ?
[13:17] <Yuji1> artyg: Good luck with it.
[13:17] <|Dreams|> good answer cheers for that Chousuke
[13:17] <Chousuke> |Dreams|: though you *could* try gcc *.c -o executable
[13:17] <jA_cOp> I don't know if Ubuntu comes with any compilers by default
[13:17] <Yuji1> Trying to figure out how to install that EQ.
[13:17] <sken> yeah i cked that
[13:17] <Johan-UbuntuNewb> hi!
[13:17] <artyg> Stupid MP-BIOS bug.

[13:18] <sken> i mean what can i click in the volume control now?
[13:18] <Pizarro> I cant finish the installation of UBunutu 64 bits 8.04, it gets stuck on "Cofnfiuration APT"..!! the funny thing is that just one hour before I installed it successfully but I had done some mistake and I wanted to install it again, now it gets stuck, please I NEED HELP

[13:19] <technopagan> sken: MAke sure that the slider for Microphone is higher than Zero
[13:19] <technopagan> sken: So that the mic can actually record
[13:19] <EugenMayer> does somebody has sovled the problems with ATI cards + suspend to ram and back to "black screen" ?
[13:19] <Pizarro> No error message on screen, it jus say "Configuring APT 82%"
[13:19] <paul68> !attitude |notrust_nopain
[13:19] <sken> which slider the PCM?
[13:20] <sken> i don't have slider for microphone
[13:20] <Pizarro> it supposed that Ubuntu shoudl be human frendly....I see, it even lets you know what happens
[13:20] <mikethk> outbackwifi, still not working. still no privileged
[13:20] <rober1> hi ubottu
[13:20] <Chousuke> jA_cOp: it doesn't, but you get gcc by installing build-essential
[13:20] <Don123> Outbackwifi Are you telling me to edit xorg.conf?
[13:20] <jA_cOp> Chousuke: Ok, but I think I'll just get MinGW
[13:20] <eedd> Hi
[13:20] <technopagan> sken: There should be a slider for Microphone if the system recognized it...
[13:20] <outbackwifi> Don123: yes
[13:20] <paul68> !hi |eedd
[13:20] <Chousuke> jA_cOp: mingw? are you going to compile windows programs?
[13:21] <Pizarro> Help please
[13:21] <eedd> what can be used in place of "yum provides stuff" in ubuntu ?
[13:21] <artyg> Dear freakin' lord, stupid netbooks and their lack of CD drives.
[13:21] <jA_cOp> I am a Windows programmer, yes :P
[13:21] <sken> i don't have that one
[13:21] <Chousuke> eedd: apt provides stuff
[13:21] <w0ls0n> well I upgraded from ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10 I had 2 issues. One is it uninstalled vmware server and the other was it changed a drive letter of another drive that was installed.
[13:21] <jms32> Can someone tell me soft for editing ISO files?
[13:21] <technopagan> sken: Try clicking the Settings-button below the slider and make a check at the line for Microphone
[13:21] <Chousuke> jA_cOp: well, mingw on ubuntu uses gcc :p
[13:21] <jA_cOp> Yeah Chousuke, I just remembered :D Kind of stupid of me
[13:21] <dr_willis> jms32,  depenmds on what you want to do.. i recall 'kiso' not sure of any others
[13:21] <dr_willis> !info kiso
[13:22] <outbackwifi> mikethk: how did you install pmount?
[13:22] <technopagan> sken: Then the slider for microphone should appear
[13:22] <dr_willis> w0ls0n,  drive 'letter' ?
[13:22] <sken> you mean the capture mux explain
[13:22] <eedd> aptitude search stuff does not apparently do it
[13:22] <jms32> 28-dr_willis- I think that is what i need Thanks
[13:22] <w0ls0n> yea instead of hdb1 its now sdb1
[13:22] <sken> doesn't say here anything about microphone
[13:22] <Pizarro> Please anyone with this issue or just want to give me a hand please?
[13:22] <w0ls0n> drive I should have said
[13:22] <dr_willis> w0ls0n,  thats not a letter.. thats the device name.. and the move from hdXX to sd## has been going on for some time now..
[13:22] <Bodsda> eedd, your trying to use apt to search for something?
[13:22] <eedd> apt provides stuff : bash: apt: command not found
[13:23] <w0ls0n> I just upgraded last night :-)
[13:23] <Chousuke> eedd: use aptitude :P
[13:23] <Guest81454> i love ubuntu user !!! :x
[13:23] <eedd> I am trying to see what is provides by what package
[13:23] <vililikku> Hi! Where can I download Ubuntu base image, without X and other default programs?
[13:23] <Chousuke> eedd: but the package manager is called APT
[13:23] <mikethk> outbackwifi, I used the terminal.
[13:23] <dr_willis> w0ls0n,   theres some rewriting of the IDE code base that has   cleaned things up.. so now most every ide drieve should be accessed as sd##
[13:23] <eedd> for instance, in CentOS you can do: yum provides unbuffer
[13:23] <technopagan> sken: Now I'm out of ideas ... If the system does not even offer you any microphone-settings I guess it does not recognize it
[13:23] <eedd> this shows that, expect provides the unbuffer command
[13:23] <w0ls0n> ok then. I was able to change the fstab without an issue
[13:23] <technopagan> sken: But that's just me guessing
[13:23] <Chousuke> eedd: ah like that
[13:23] <Chousuke> eedd: hmm
[13:24] <Frogzoo> eedd: expect is damn ugly, use perl
[13:24] <Chousuke> eedd: apt-file can search for files
[13:24] <Don123> Outbackwifi:  Can you give me a command for that or do I need to use a command line editor program?
[13:24] <dr_willis> w0ls0n,  thats part of the reason to the move to 'UUID' in fstab.. then the /dev/XXX name wont matter
[13:24] <Guest81454> abc i'm new at irc ~ i'm a guest huh ?
[13:24] <outbackwifi> mikethk: does pmount /dev/sdb1
[13:24] <outbackwifi> Don123: gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[13:24] <sken> so can i put that?
  try the command /nick ILike_ThisNick
[13:24] <outbackwifi> mikethk: does pmount /dev/sdb1 work?
[13:24] <Chousuke> eedd: also, by default the ubuntu bash will tell you the name of a package if you ttry to use a command that doesn't exist.
[13:24] <Chousuke> eedd: but I don't know how it does that.
[13:24] <eedd> the thing expect package should provide "unbuffer" command this is good for things like grepping the output of tail
[13:25] <eedd> unbuffer tail -f ~/error_log | grep -i stuff
[13:25] <dr_willis> Chousuke,  uses the 'command not found package' :) i belive.. some sort of alias/setting calling an app.
[13:25] <Chousuke> yeah but what does it call :/
[13:25] <Don123> Outbackwifi:  And change monitor to-- what was it-- 24 or 25?
[13:25] <Kate_Mins> Hello , where i can get old version of G++ for ubuntu ? (in synaptic the old version is 4.1 i am looking for 3.4 or less  )
[13:25] <eedd> installing apt-file right now
[13:25] <mikethk> outbackwifi, Not sure i did it rigth. gives me a failure
[13:26] <Chousuke> Kate_Mins: there should be gcc-3 or something there too
[13:26] <Guest81454> :P You all so nice ~
[13:27] <Chousuke> hmm
[13:27] <Chousuke> apparently there isn't
[13:27] <Chousuke> oh wait
[13:27] <Chousuke> Kate_Mins: there's gcc-3.4
[13:27] <Guest81454> how do i change my name in here ?
[13:27] <Chousuke> Guest81454: /nick newname
[13:28] <Guest81454> Thank you chousuke !!! :x
[13:28] <dr_willis> Chousuke,  check out  /usr/share/doc/command-not-found/README
  try the command /nick ILike_ThisNick
[13:28] <outbackwifi> mikethk: whats the error ?
[13:28] <no> abc
[13:28] <dr_willis> no - is a bit of a dull nick. :)
[13:28] <outbackwifi> Don123: i think 36
[13:28] <mikethk> outbackwifi, an_> ok, good
[13:28] <mikethk> * I
[13:29] <mikethk> outbackwifi, ups
[13:29] <Chousuke> apparently "no" is registered
[13:29] <Chousuke> can't use it if it is :)
[13:29] <dr_willis> Guest77717 try something a bit more original thats proberly not allready taken. :) like /nick LOLCatLover
[13:29] <Guest77717> figuring out what will be the best.. for my permant id
[13:30] <Guest77717> thank you dr_willis ~
[13:30] <Guest77717> :x
[13:30] <dr_willis> Guest77717 You can always change it. Not a big deal
[13:30] <mikethk> outbackwifi, only root can mount /dev/sdb1 on media/lager disk       lager disk is my other external HD that makes same mount failure, but it aint connected :S

[13:32] <gam3r111> does anyone know how to get compiz fusion sphere?
[13:32] <mopped> How can I create a partition? I'm using ubuntu and I'm going to have to install winXP for some games, any tutorials on how to create a prtition from ubuntu? :P
[13:32] <outbackwifi> mikethk: that means that /dev/sdb1 is not the correct device. its probably listed in /etc/fstab in which case pmount will not work
[13:32] <gam3r111> ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????
[13:33] <mikethk> outbackwifi,  Oki, now it tells me i have newest version of pmount.
[13:33] <Guest77717> <= new @ linux
[13:33] <madmartian> disaster has struck... ubuntu installer wiped the hard disk instead of resizing it. any ideas?
[13:33] <dr_willis> mopped,  i normally use a live cd with gparted on it..  Windows likes to be the first primary partion to be safest.
[13:33] <outbackwifi> mopped: system-administration-partition editor
[13:33] <razor1394> Anyone else having a problem with sata_mv? My expansion card doesn't even show up on lspci anymore. What's up with that?
[13:33] <gam3r111> ok i guess not
[13:33] <artyg> Is there a magical way to make a mount point in /mnt/? my /mnt folder is completely empty.
[13:33] <paul68> !patience |gam3r111
[13:33] <oz7t> test
[13:34] <outbackwifi> artyg: the magic is mkdir /mnt/magicmountpointthatartywants
[13:34] <bn43> hi - I'm getting to like gnome-do alot - however still running hardy which has a default 0.4 version - anyone running 0.6 on hardy?
[13:34] <mikethk> outbackwifi, Oki so any idea how to make it work then if it dossent work in pmount?
[13:34] <artyg> That's a little long, I'll just make it something easier ;-P
[13:34] <dr_willis> artyg,  normally mountpoints are in /media
[13:34] <Petein> hi.whats the problem with ubuntu 8.10 repositories? i can't install mpi, xine gui, opera etc
[13:34] <rconan> is it possible to reassign jacks on realtek soundcards under linux like you can on windows?
[13:34] <feng14> anyone help me
[13:34] <dr_willis> artyg,  this differs from one disrto to another.
[13:34] <artyg> dr_willis: There is no /media/ folder here.
[13:34] <paul68> !anyone |feng14
[13:34] <artyg> These are not the droids you are looking for.
[13:35] <paul68> !ask |feng14
[13:35] <feng14> i install the xubuntu, how to uninstall it
[13:35] <dr_willis> artyg,  then you got somthing really weird going on.. every Ubuntu reelase ive ever seen uses /media/   make one if you want.. or not..
[13:35] <artyg> Well, the installer shell doesn't use /media/
[13:35] <bn43> anyone running gnome-do?
[13:35] <outbackwifi> mikethk: you need to find out whether the device name is correct; second is to remove the line from /etc/fstab and use pmount ; to automate it, the device is listed in /etc/pmount.allow
[13:35] <Guest77717> me gnome
[13:35] <Guest77717> dont know gnome-do
[13:36] <dr_willis> artyg,  installer shell?
[13:36] <ziroday`> bn43: yes, whats wrong?
[13:36] <mopped> How can I check what version of ubuntu I have? :P
[13:36] <artyg> Yes, like if you boot into Ubuntu Intrepid Alt Installer and try to mount your USB drive as a CD-ROM drive just using the installer's shell.
[13:36] <Don123> Outbackwifi:  You are talking about the vertical and horizontal refresh values to put on line 36 right?  What format do I use?  A v and number then an h and number or is there a line there I can just change when I find the correct values?
[13:36] <ziroday`> mopped: lsb_release -a
[13:36] <Guest77717> mopped that's really nice question :x
[13:37] <dr_willis> artyg,  if you are manually mounting a device.. You could mount it wever you want.
[13:37] <mopped> thanks
[13:37] <Guest77717> coool
[13:37] <artyg> But how do I access it after I mount it? Can't do it through /dev/.
[13:37] <dr_willis> artyg,  you access the Mountpoint.. niot the /dev/entryname
[13:37] <artyg> Problem: There is no mountpoint.
[13:37] <dr_willis> artyg,   mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1
[13:37] <dr_willis> artyg,  then MAKE ONE.. its just a directory
[13:38] <outbackwifi> Don123:  the format is speficied here -> http://www.x.org/archive/X11R6.8.0/doc/xorg.conf.5.html
[13:38] <artyg> Then it says "Cannot find (mount point) in /etc/fstab".
[13:38] <Iradieh> Is there way to start a screen at startup, with X ammount of windows each opening programs like irssi and rtorrent?
[13:38] <artyg> I know, I'm really retarded, but please do bear with me.
[13:38] <outbackwifi> artyg: you need to use the proper mount command
[13:38] <dr_willis> artyg,  you may want to read up on/google 'mounting drives in linux'
[13:39] <dr_willis> artyg,  mkdir /media/sda1
[13:39] <outbackwifi> artyg: it is sudo mount /dev/devicename /mnt/mountpoint
[13:39] <dr_willis> artyg,  mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1
[13:39] <Guest77717> this is really really nice program with nice ppl :P
[13:39] <dr_willis> artyg,  ls /media/sda1   0------ Ta Daa!

[13:39] <vampirefrog> hi guys. when I shut down or reboot, the system just stalls at 'shutting down alsa' (dunno, i press alt+F7 to see the log, after X quits)
[13:39] <bn43> ziroday`: using .04 on hardy - want to upgrade gnome do so I can use the funky plugins
[13:39] <ziroday`> bn43: okay...
[13:40] <Petein> Hello. im using synaptic to install mpi, opera and xine gui and the application can't find them. what's wrong with the repositories? i ve just installed ubuntu 8.10
[13:40] <Don123> Outbackwifi:  Thanks for all your help.  Gotta go.
[13:40] <bReakMyFaLL> how to play .swf file ?
[13:40] <outbackwifi> Don123: ok
[13:40] <outbackwifi> Don123: the format for xorg.conf is here --> http://www.x.org/archive/X11R6.8.0/doc/xorg.conf.5.html
[13:40] <artyg> Sudo is not in the installer shell. In fact, very very few programs are here.
[13:40] <bn43> ziroday`: I'm not planning on upgrading my lappy to intrepid yet - I've got her just so and tweaking just a bit :-)
[13:40] <Guest77717> how do i find #ubuntu-offtopic ?
[13:40] <dr_willis> artyg,  you dont need to use sudo when in that  shell.
[13:41] <ziroday`> bn43: okay. and what is exactly wrong?
[13:41] <outbackwifi> artyg: in the installer shell you already are root; if you see # you know you are
[13:41] <dr_willis> artyg,  but in normal usseage you sould.
[13:41] <ziroday`> Guest35428: type in /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:41] <Guest77717> thank you ziroday ~
[13:41]  * dr_willis wonders why artyg  is messing with the shell on the installer.
[13:41] <Guest77717> thank you all bye ~
[13:41] <artyg> Okay, let's see if the installer wants to recognize it.
[13:41] <nekrojakub> Hi people! Is there a Wubi specific chat?
[13:41] <bn43> ziroday`: nothing wrong - just want to know if anyone has upgraded to the latest gnome-do on hardy and how they went about it?
[13:41] <artyg> I'm messing with the shell because an install from the alt installer from a USB drive needs a "cd-rom"
[13:42] <bn43> ziroday`: and problems etc?
[13:42] <artyg> And the cloudbook is completely CD-ROM-less.
[13:42] <ziroday`> bn43: ah right, you are aware the maintain an externel repo right? I personally had no problems when using hardy and the externel repo
[13:42] <Gomik> Hi, can i run aspx code in Ubuntu box?
[13:42] <Guest77717> this is #ubuntu+1
[13:42] <jtisme> nekrojakub, try  /join wubi and see
[13:42] <mikethk> outbackwifi, how to move the line from fstab to pmount?
[13:42] <bn43> ziroday`: no I did not
[13:42] <outbackwifi> artyg: you seem to have started from a wrong premise and are trying to work around that
[13:43] <ziroday`> bn43: lemme dredge up the link for you
[13:43] <bn43> ziroday`: any instructions on how to go about it?
[13:43] <nekrojakub> No channel named wubi, heh.
[13:43] <outbackwifi> mikethk: gksu gedit /etc/fstab find the line with /dev/sdb1 and delete it
[13:43] <nekrojakub> I'm trying to introduce someone to Ubuntu by using Wubi, but when he reboots after installing Wubi he can't access Ubuntu, the choose your system screen doesn't show and XP boots normally...
[13:43] <artyg> I would've installed from the normal Ubuntu live distro, but alas, no Via CX700 support.
[13:44] <ziroday`> nekrojakub: try /join #wubi
[13:44] <snowrichard> hi just did an install of ubuntu desktop cd and firefox doesn't start as my normal user but does as root
[13:44] <outbackwifi> artyg: the way i did it with a eeeppc was to install standard distro and replace the kernel with one specific  to the eeepc
[13:45] <nekrojakub> ziroday: It's empty
[13:45] <artyg>  Of course, the EeePC actually has users, the Cloudbook and alternative installs don't go together.
[13:45] <ziroday`> bn43: you add the ppa to your /etc/apt/sources.list. Do you know how to do that?
[13:45] <outbackwifi> snowrichard: how did you install firefox?
[13:45] <snowrichard> it was installed by the cd
[13:45] <ziroday`> bn43: see http://do.davebsd.com/wiki/index.php?title=Installing_Do#8.04_.28Hardy.29
[13:46] <outbackwifi> snowrichard: and how did you know that root can start it?
[13:46] <mikethk> outbackwifi, and now add it to gksu gedit /etc/pmount.allow?
[13:46] <snowrichard> I did sudo /bin/bash and ran firefox
[13:46] <outbackwifi> mikethk: only the device name not the whole line from fstab
[13:46] <noelferreira> how can i check both L1 and L2 cache of my CPU? hardinfo only gives me information about a cache parameter without specify if it is L1 or L2.
[13:46] <outbackwifi> mikethk: before you do that do a pmount /dev/sdb1 and see if that works
[13:46] <bn43> ziroday`: awesome thanks!
[13:47] <bn43> ziroday`: google did not bring that one up
[13:47] <outbackwifi> mikethk: if all fails read this --> http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Understanding_fstab#pmount
[13:47] <ziroday`> bn43: no problem :)
[13:47] <artyg> Can I install Ubuntu from a different Linux? o.o
[13:48] <mikethk> outbackwifi, OMFG it worked...... but plz fast tell me.... what is pmount and fstab? I only know what to type, not what i am doing

[13:54] <VirusKongen> how do i fix video flickering in opengl apps avd videos in winwolved  mode?
[13:54] <VirusKongen> no flickering in fullscreen
[13:54] <Simetrical> Firefox has stopped working.  When I open it, it gives the "Starting Firefox Web Browser..." item in the task bar, but it disappears after a few seconds, with a firefox process left running, but nothing appears on the screen..
[13:55] <snowrichard> just get the prompt again
[13:55] <Simetrical> Something very similar happens with Epiphany, so I'm guessing it's related to Gecko somehow.  Is there any way I could debug further?
[13:55] <outbackwifi> VirusKongen: check if you have software acceleration with glxinfo
[13:55] <Simetrical> This happened to me once before and I only fixed it by restarting my computer (restarting X didn't work), which would be annoying.
[13:55] <rabe> how can i search IN files with nautilus?
[13:55] <outbackwifi> rabe: what files are those
[13:55] <rabe> txt
[13:55] <subdolus> what's the easiest way to implement IPSEC on a mixed-os network?
[13:55] <Simetrical> Typing "firefox" on the command line just hangs, no output of any kind.
[13:56] <outbackwifi> rabe: search for them or inside them?
[13:56] <rabe> inside...
[13:56] <snowrichard> i can try rebooting again
[13:56] <Simetrical> Same for firefox -safe-mode.
[13:56]  * Simetrical gets the impression that there are more questions than answers here, presently
[13:56] <outbackwifi> rabe: nautilus cant do that (i think) you need to use grep
[13:56] <iman_> what is the best graphics card I can get for around $200?
[13:57] <simon> does anyone know the command for openarena
[13:57] <outbackwifi> VirusKongen: you should pastebin that; not pm me with that data
[13:57] <rabe> grep?
[13:57] <VirusKongen> outbackwifi: ??
[13:57] <mikethk> outbackwifi, the link you gaved me didnt work

[14:05] <Bupsss> hello....
[14:05] <nwarrenfl> i am on ubuntu intrepid livecd with a nvidia geforce 9800GT and my screen res is 800x600 and i can't set it higher, what can i do?
[14:05] <mikethk> outbackwifi, Oki I tried workig on my HD now. External. I was it would work easily now i could just put in the name on device in pmount.allow     but it wont work. Other device is still working
[14:05] <subdolus> are you able to tell me exactly what would be producing 'LLC' packets on my  seemingly inactive ath0? tcpdump shows nothing, but kismet is capturing thousands of them
[14:05] <Bupsss> i just upgraded to 8.10 but.... did they changed some icons name?
[14:05] <jvm_> hi. i dont like gnome. i was used to e17 and xfce, in the past. yet, i love the zoom, expose and shadow feature i can use with desktop effects enabled, nowadays. is there a way to combine this with a faster, slimmer desktop environment?
[14:06] <bakarat> is there a way to use svn over the network without webdav (and as such the need for apache)?
[14:06] <ktwo> hi how can i change LAN speed from Automatic to 10Mbit Full Duplex?
[14:06] <Bupsss> and.... why do i have now 2 buttons, one to shutdown and one for the session?
[14:06] <outbackwifi> ktwo: use ethtool
[14:06] <jvm_> nwarrenfl, changes are pretty high this is caused by wrong modelines, if your monitor is connected via vga.
[14:06] <ktwo> i dont have it i just installed a clean ubuntu 8.10 and LAN does not work despite of that
[14:07] <ktwo> i need to set it from 100 to 10mbit
[14:07] <outbackwifi> mikethk: you need to understand how pmount works; read the documentation
[14:07] <Peter_Swinkels1> Hello, I have a similair problem to the one discribed here: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/43038 - unfortunately no clear solution is given, can any one help?
[14:07] <outbackwifi> mikethk: ive been feeding you commands for the last 2 hours
[14:07] <jvm_> nwarrenfl, try to search a modelines for your monitor via google (by typing in 'modeline <monitor>' and add them to the xorg.conf; after restarting the xserver you might have the possibility to choose other resolutions.
[14:08] <mikethk> outbackwifi,  I will read the documentation.  I been working on it for 20
[14:08] <outbackwifi> mikethk: thanks
[14:08] <simon> what is the command for game openarena
[14:09] <ktwo> so theres no way to change LAN speed without a working internet connection to get ethtool?
[14:09] <Myrstidal> Excuse me, I need some help with Debian Packaging this BIN please, help would be greatly appreciated
[14:09] <chmac> I've just created a new logical volume with lvm, now I want to format it, can I do that with gparted without causing any issues?
[14:09] <djk> I'm having trouble getting changes to networking settings to stick. Using the network connections GUI. Any hints how to make the changes to a static IP stick on a restart?
[14:09] <outbackwifi> ktwo: ethtool is installed by default

[14:10] <bn43> hi I followed this  http://do.davebsd.com/wiki/index.php?title=Installing_Do#8.04_.28Hardy.29 for installing latest gnome-do
[14:11] <tdawgedogg> hay does anyone know why 8.10 wont detect my raid array...it just shows 2 separate drives during installation
[14:11] <bn43> but I'm having a problem
[14:11] <outbackwifi> ktwo: ok what about mii-tool
[14:11] <tdawgedogg> and then i install to one and i get a grub error 2
[14:11] <vocis> hi guys, how do i use proprietary drivers for the radeon 9200se?
[14:11] <bn43> is anyone running gnome-do .06 on hardy?
[14:11] <outbackwifi> !ati
[14:12] <vocis> thank you kindly
[14:12] <vocis> Aha. If you are using an ATI Radeon card that is older than above, you need the open source drivers: RadeonDriver (NOT fglrx).
[14:12] <bn43> anyone?
[14:13] <vocis> not me, bn43
[14:13] <jrib> bn43: best to just ask the channel your question.  If someone knows the answer, they will try to answer you
[14:13] <Myrstidal> Sorry to ask again, but I need some help with Debian Packaging this BIN please, help would be greatly appreciated
[14:14] <Myrstidal> It just says a file doesn't exist
[14:14] <outbackwifi> djk: did you riight click on network manager applet and select edit connections?
[14:14] <djk> anybody know how to get network setting to stick in 8.10?
[14:14] <jrib> Myrstidal: what bin?
[14:14] <djk> yes
[14:14] <jA_cOp> Ok, I am in the gparted resize screen, resizing an existing windows partition cannot remove any data, right?
[14:14] <outbackwifi> Myrstidal: what file is that
[14:14] <akafurious> hey djk
[14:14] <bn43> I'm using .04 gnome-do on hardy but would like to use .06
[14:14] <ktwo> mii-tool seems not to work
[14:14] <jrib> jA_cOp: you have backups right?
[14:14] <bn43> I've followed  http://do.davebsd.com/wiki/index.php?title=Installing_Do#8.04_.28Hardy.29 but encountering a problem
[14:14] <Myrstidal> A Java BIN
[14:14] <ktwo> it does show up 10mbit now but network manager still uses 100
[14:14] <vocis> running a fully blown linux network in the office, using xubuntu and archlinux for server
[14:14] <outbackwifi> djk: and did you remove the auto eth0 line?
[14:14] <jrib> bn43: you should tell us the problem
[14:14] <jA_cOp> I dont have the luxury of backing it up, jrib
[14:14] <vocis> i need someone who can help me to make it comfortable for my users
[14:15] <outbackwifi> ktwo: that might not be the problem
[14:15] <djk> outbackwifi: yes, edited the auto eth0 for a static even renamed it
[14:15] <jrib> jA_cOp: then it's data you don't care about
[14:15] <vocis> anyone interested to help me out? :)
[14:15] <jA_cOp> I simply cleared 30gb of space
[14:15] <tumeconnaisoupas> salut
[14:15] <outbackwifi> djk: what does it contain now?
[14:15] <djk> restarted the eth0 and it worked
[14:15] <tumeconnaisoupas> y'a ti'il des francais?
[14:15] <jrib> !fr | tumeconnaisoupas
[14:15] <vocis> speak english, please.
[14:15] <djk> but on reboot it goes back the auto
[14:15] <bn43> problem is that the install says there is an unresolved dependancy
[14:15] <Myrstidal> jrib: I'm just trying to install Java in Ubuntu, and I hit a snag
[14:15] <jrib> bn43: pastebin
[14:15] <jrib> Myrstidal: java is in the repositories
[14:15] <ribas1> aloha neighbors
[14:15] <ktwo> hm what then? :> i just need to change from 100 to 10 mbit why is such a thing so hard to to with ubuntu >.<
[14:16] <Peter_Swinkels1> Any one? Any idea?
[14:16] <vocis> ktwo, don't be daft. Try mii-tool.
[14:16] <jA_cOp> So what does the resizer actually do?
[14:16] <ktwo> i DID
[14:16] <jrib> Peter_Swinkels1: ask an actual question
[14:16] <vocis> and?
[14:16] <outbackwifi> ktwo: most modern cards are autonegotiating types you dont actually need to set it
[14:16] <ktwo> eth0: 10Mbit, half-duplex, link ok
[14:16] <ktwo> BUT: still no connection
[14:16] <vocis> well did you check the cable then?
[14:16] <Myrstidal> jrib: I'm using a tutorialat http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=180131, and I'm up to a part where I need to Debian Package a BIN file
[14:16] <vocis> maybe it's broken.
[14:16] <Peter_Swinkels1> I did ask an actual question, just check above:  Hello, I have a similair problem to the one discribed here: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/43038 - unfortunately no clear solution is given, can any one help?
[14:16] <outbackwifi> ktwo: it may be something else; like you didnt get an ip; didnt set a route etc
[14:16] <ktwo> yes but in that case i need to: 100mbit does NOT work (even under Windows) only if i set it to 10Mbit
[14:16] <IndyGunFreak> jA_cOp: what do you mean what does it do?... it resizes the partitions on the drive.
[14:16] <tdawgedogg> hay does anyone know why 8.10 wont detect my raid array...it just shows 2 separate drives during installation
[14:16] <noelferreira> how can i check both L1 and L2 cache of my CPU? hardinfo only gives me information about a cache parameter without specify if it is L1 or L2.
[14:17] <jrib> Myrstidal: no, use the repositories
[14:17] <ktwo> its because of the cable length
[14:17] <ribas1> 8.10 is quite fast ..however, after I installed xbuntu and the usual mods. firefox sometimes takes too loong to display the pages
[14:17] <vocis> ktwo, freaky :)
[14:17] <djk> outbackwifi: any thoughts>
[14:17] <jrib> Myrstidal: what java do you want to install?
[14:17] <bn43> http://paste.ubuntu.com/69639/
[14:17] <Myrstidal> jrib: So I opened up the terminal and used "fakeroot make-jpkg root/jre-1_5_0_06-linux-i586.bin", but it says that the BIN doesn't exist
[14:17] <jA_cOp> Yes IndyGunFreak, but what happens to the data on the partition I resize?
[14:17] <GoGi> Can I somehow turn off that I always get "The program xy is not installed, ..." when I type xy in the terminal
[14:17] <jrib> Myrstidal: why are you not listening?
[14:17] <jA_cOp> It is an NTFS partition
[14:17] <GoGi> A simple "xy: command not found" is sufficient
[14:18] <DIFH-iceroot> GoGi: remove "command-not-found
[14:18] <IndyGunFreak> it will all be on the original partition, and the "new" partition will be blank.
[14:18] <Fermio91> hi guy
[14:18] <DIFH-iceroot> GoGi: its a program which tells you what you have to install if a command is not fund
[14:18] <GoGi> DIFH-iceroot: from where?
[14:18] <sudobash> so I am polly about to update to IBEX.... Any Insane bugs?
[14:18] <IndyGunFreak> jA_cOp: *usually* it goes w/o a hitch, but if you have important data, its silly to do it w/o a backup
[14:18] <GoGi> DIFH-iceroot: I see
[14:18] <jrib> !notes > sudobash
[14:18] <DIFH-iceroot> GoGi: apt-get remove command-not-found
[14:18] <outbackwifi> djk: i just deleted the auto eth0 line and added a new one with static and it worked for me across reboots
[14:18] <jvargas_> hi
[14:18] <jA_cOp> Well I moved all my important data to a flash drive, only lots of games left
[14:18] <Stalker72> hey
[14:19] <jvargas_> i think i did something wrong with my partition table
[14:19] <jA_cOp> So absolutely expendible
[14:19] <alex_> has anyone experience with "Mainboard S-775 INTEL DX48BT2" on Ubuntu 8.10 ?
[14:19] <bennymack1> If I cat out /etc/debian_version I get lenny/sid. I'm not sure how to translate this to a version number and I don't seem to have lsb_release
[14:19] <outbackwifi> !hcl | alex_
[14:19] <IndyGunFreak> jA_cOp: ok,... how big is your current drive?
[14:19] <jrib> !version | bennymack1
[14:19] <DIFH-iceroot> bennymack1: lenny == debian 5.0
[14:19] <ribas1> sudobash: none so far, just the annoyance of having windows open after logiin from the last session
[14:19] <GoGi> DIFH-iceroot: thank you.
[14:19] <DIFH-iceroot> GoGi: no problem
[14:19] <GoGi> Is it possible to install mysql on the desktop version of ubuntu?
[14:19] <jA_cOp> IndyGunFreak the drive in question is already parted in two NFTS partitions by windows, each being 89gb
[14:19] <ribas1> talking about xbuntu 8.10
[14:19] <DIFH-iceroot> GoGi: apt-get install mysql
[14:20] <GoGi> It doesn't seem to be listed in the graphical package manager
[14:20] <Fermio91> i would know what are the .dll files i have to add into "winecfg" libreries to install and use flash CS3 on my Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid (using wine)
[14:20] <Stalker72> is there a big difference in features between normal releases and LTS releases?
[14:20] <IndyGunFreak> jA_cOp: ok.. and what are you wanting to do... shrink the second 89gig partition, for Linux?
[14:20] <jrib> bn43: pastebin: apt-cache policy libpango1.0-0
[14:20] <GoGi> DIFH-iceroot: I see.
[14:20] <jA_cOp> Exactly IndyGunFreak, is this sensible?
[14:20] <outbackwifi> Stalker72: yes; the time for which support is available
[14:20] <DIFH-iceroot> GoGi: sudo apt-get install mysql-server
[14:20] <IndyGunFreak> jA_cOp: thats what i would do...
[14:20] <rodolfo> hi there guys
[14:20] <jrib> Myrstidal: did you find the java you wanted in the repositories?
[14:20] <ribas1> sudobash: boot time has improved a lot
[14:20] <sudobash> hmmm well what about migrating docs and settings from 8.04 does it work well like Firefox favs?
[14:20] <IndyGunFreak> jA_cOp: i just can't stress to you enough, make sure anything i mportant is backed up
[14:20] <bn43> jrib: do I put apt-cache policy libpango1.0-0 in command line?
[14:20] <bennymack1> Thanks DIFH-iceroot, ubottu. I seem to have 7.10. That's pretty old huh?
[14:21] <jrib> bn43: yes
[14:21] <rodolfo> how do I format a pendrive using the terminal commands?
[14:21] <Stalker72> outbackwifi: Except long-term support, are there more differences?
[14:21] <outbackwifi> sudobash: if you upgrade distro everything works
[14:21] <bn43> will do - be right back
[14:21] <outbackwifi> Stalker72: nope
[14:21] <DIFH-iceroot> bennymack1: its from october 2007
[14:21] <gentle> hey I try to get a iMon VFD working on Ubuntu 8.10 with LCDproc, I got the lirc_imon module loaded and IR is working like a charm, but the /dev/lcd0 device does not exist and will not be created if I load the lirc_imon module with "modprobe lirc_imon is_lcd=1"
[14:21] <jA_cOp> IndyGunFreak: The resizer is kind of confusing to me, how do I do it?
[14:21] <sudobash> you mean sudo apt-get dist-upgrade?
[14:21] <DasEI> is there stilla way to have a topbar (os-x like in hardy) in ibex ?
[14:21] <sudobash> or from CD?
[14:21] <IndyGunFreak> jA_cOp: are you on the live CD now?
[14:21] <Stalker72> outbackwifi: There's a release every 6 months?
[14:21] <sudobash> cause someone said dist-upgrade caused crashes
[14:21] <outbackwifi> Stalker72: of course normal releases would be cutting-edge
[14:21] <jA_cOp> Yes IndyGunFreak, on the pidgin that comes with it
[14:22] <rodolfo> does anyone know hoe can I format a pendrive using the terminal commands....?
[14:22] <ribas1> sudobash: export -import for firefox..migrating dos? dunno, have home in a separated partition so never have to migrate anything, sorry...
[14:22] <skyper> Hello guys..can anyone tell me the direction of the Ubuntu livecd updated ? looks like they call daily-image or something like that...
[14:22] <IndyGunFreak> jA_cOp: ok.. tyupe this w/o quotes.. "/join #indygunfreak"
[14:22] <ribas1> docs
[14:22] <joaopinto> sudobash, you are expected to use update-manager, not dist-upgrade
[14:22] <Myrstidal> jrib: Sorry about that, let me rephrase that, I'm installing the Java SE Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 10 BIN
[14:22] <outbackwifi> sudobash: someone was wrong. just alt-f2 and  type update-manager -d in it and in the morning you have new distribution
[14:22] <DasEI> rodolfo:see man fdisk, but I'd prefer gparted
[14:22] <bn43> http://paste.ubuntu.com/69643/
[14:22] <joaopinto> outbackwifi, -d is not required and should not be used at this time
[14:22] <TheBlasphemer> How do I find out where a symlink points to ?
[14:22] <rodolfo> DasEI, gparted can do the job?
[14:23] <jrib> Myrstidal: ok.  Throw the bin in the trash.  Java is in the repositories.  Just install the sun-java6-jre package
[14:23] <raheem> -d means download only, correct me if i am wrong
[14:23] <ribas1> tao joao pinto? mataste a mosca! :)
[14:23] <bennymack1> DIFH-iceroot: How could I go about finding what version of perl is packaged with 8.10? /me hopes 5.10.0
[14:23] <outbackwifi> joaopinto: well it so happens it was required when i did it yesterday
[14:23] <IceWind> Hi! Is it possible to make grub always show the menu? Instead of the text with the countdown that chooses the default option?
[14:23] <joaopinto> Myrstidal, os the openjdk version
[14:23] <jrib> TheBlasphemer: readlink (or ls -l)
[14:23] <djk> outbackwifi: something odd going on. I will not stick for me. It is running under virtualbox but that should not make a difference
[14:23] <DIFH-iceroot> bennymack1: apt-cache search
[14:23] <DasEI> rodolfo:sure, make safe the drive is unmounted first
[14:23] <sharperguy> Anyone know why send/receive is grayed out with no explanation as to why on my evolution?
[14:23] <joaopinto> outbackwifi, is not required if you read the upgrade instructions
[14:24] <rodolfo> DasEI, UNmounted?
[14:24] <Peter_Swinkels1> Alright, perhaps I should put my question another way: - Does any one know if and how access to NTFS partitions can be restricted to specific users and/or groups in Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex)?
[14:24] <joaopinto> specifically if you enable the non LTS upgrades
[14:24] <outbackwifi> joaopinto: ok anyways im not the one who wants it; please address it to the OP
[14:24] <snowrichard> got the firefox problem fixed with chown -r richard:richard .mozilla
[14:24] <Stalker72> outbackwifi: Do we know about any features that will be included in 9.04?
[14:24] <rodolfo> DasEI, but if it is UNmounted how can I format it?
[14:24] <snowrichard> -R rather
[14:24] <snowrichard> it was owned by root
[14:24] <jrib> Peter_Swinkels1: set the proper gid mount option in fstab
[14:24] <outbackwifi> djk: are you running livecd inside virtualbox
[14:25] <skyper> Can anyone tell if this is the last ubuntu daily-build image? http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/20081029.5/
[14:25] <outbackwifi> snowrichard: thats great
[14:25] <DasEI> rodolfo:unmounted just means not assigned to a directory, though attached
[14:25] <yoyoned> !groups
[14:25] <jrib> skyper: intrepid is released.  Use the stable intrepid release
[14:25] <outbackwifi> Stalker72: you could track the ubuntu website etc
[14:25] <joaopinto> skyper, it is preferable to just use the final image and performing the updates from it
[14:25] <sudobash> so ibex has a 3d menu sorta....
[14:25] <bennymack1> DIFH-iceroot: but on my 7.10 box apt-cache showpkg perl is telling me 5.8.8. Is that the same that I'd get if I were on 8.10 ?
[14:26] <rodolfo> DasEI and how can I make sure the pendrive is not assigned to a directory?
[14:26] <skyper> jrib: yeah im using intrepid..but i want i up-to-date image of ubuntu...
[14:26] <outbackwifi> bennymack1: yes thats the perl version
[14:26] <DIFH-iceroot> bennymack1: dont know but 8.10 should have a newer one
[14:26] <bn43> jrib: output on http://paste.ubuntu.com/69643/
[14:26] <sparrow-jack> is there any changes in 8.10 themes?
[14:26] <joaopinto> skyper, you just need to install the upgrades that you usually get notified about
[14:26] <skyper> joaopinto: isnt better to download and install the most up-to-date image of ubuntu? with all its actualizations
[14:26] <outbackwifi> bennymack1: ive got 5.10.0
[14:26] <DIFH-iceroot> skyper: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/
[14:26] <DasEI> rodolfo:type mount in aterminal to see which partis/drives are actually mounted, in gparted right-click>unmount
[14:27] <joaopinto> skyper, no, getting the updates from the repository is the recommended procedure
[14:27] <snowrichard> anyway now i need to get my wireless card working
[14:27] <jrib> skyper: notice the date on that daily and see the date of release for intrepid
[14:27] <bennymack1> outbackwifi: excellent! And you installed it with apt-get somehow?
[14:27] <snowrichard> I'll need ndiswrapper
[14:27] <skyper> DIFH-iceroot: i know..i just wanna know what is the most actualized one..
[14:27] <outbackwifi> bennymack1: it came with the distribution upgrade
[14:27] <DIFH-iceroot> skyper: 8.10 with apt-get upgrade
[14:27] <joaopinto> skyper, the livecds may not be properly tested and they don't provide any advantage over the regular updates
[14:27] <Myrstidal> jrib: Thanks a lot!  You've been a great help.
[14:28] <djk> outbackwifi: no it is a installed desktop version. Other changes stick
[14:28] <ribas1> snowrichard: have you checked  fw?
[14:28] <riegersn> Are there any bot scripts for XChat for managing an irc room? like the bot in this room??
[14:28] <rodolfo> DasEI hang on..
[14:28] <outbackwifi> djk: hmm weird
[14:28] <skyper> joaopinto: right? i mean, i want to install Ubuntu on 5 pcs.. so i dont wanna install it and download 69mb again..thats why i would download and install a daily-build image..with all its actualizations included
[14:28] <Stalker72> outbackwifi: How many people convert to Linux / Ubuntu each day? :P
[14:28] <bennymack1> ahh. So, since this is a fresh box, should I just run apt-get upgrade? Or am I better off just having the host slap 8.10 on there for me?
[14:28] <outbackwifi> Stalker72: im only human ask the bot :)
[14:28] <heret1c> Has anyone had problems with mouseemu interfering with the workings of the keyboard?
[14:29] <djk> outbackwifi: agreed, I'll check later if you come up with any thoughts. Thank you.
[14:29] <Stalker72> outbackwifi: What bot?
[14:29] <[newnick]> Using a beta of intrepid I had a folder called private in my home folder, it was claimed to encrypt my data in that folder. Now however there is no such folder (after reinstalling with the non beta intrepid)
[14:29] <jrib> bn43: looks like an issue with the ppa, contact the author
[14:29] <skyper> joaopinto: hmm interesting..thx mate guess im gonna use the normal image
[14:29] <joaopinto> skyper, you can copy /var/cache/apt/archives with the updates packages
[14:29] <bn43> jrib: thanks - will do
[14:29] <outbackwifi> Stalker72: the one that runs the show here
[14:29] <outbackwifi> !hi | Stalker72
[14:29] <outbackwifi> him
[14:29] <skyper> joaopinto: yeah that to..
[14:30] <bennymack1> dam, apt-get upgrade and apt-get upgrade perl doesn't do anything .
[14:30] <sudobash>  so what about compiz and restricted drivers from 8.04 to 8.10 do I have to reload these drivers?
[14:30] <Stalker72> outbackwifi: Well... Can he tell me anything about that? :P
[14:30] <outbackwifi> Stalker72: dunno mate
[14:30] <[newnick]> Using a beta of intrepid I had a folder called private in my home folder, it was claimed to encrypt my data in that folder. Now however there is no such folder (after reinstalling with the non beta intrepid), how do I install such a private folder?
[14:30] <outbackwifi> bennymack1: are you on 8.04 or 8.10?
[14:30] <bn43> hi I've got an opportunity to introduce linux to a user who is frustrated with the speed of xp with office2007 on his laptop
[14:31] <dr_willis> sudobash,  on my system they got updated
[14:31] <sudobash> cool
[14:31] <riegersn> Are there any bot scripts for XChat for managing an irc room? Im looking for something like the Help bot in here
[14:31] <dr_willis> sudobash,  assuming you dident use envyng or somting like that
[14:31] <rodolfo> DasEI OK, I just unmounted the pen drive using the unmount option
[14:31] <ikonia> !offtopic | riegersn

[14:31] <kanhiya78> i have monitor resolution problems and i am not able to get higher resolution
[14:31] <bn43> I want to load linux but it needs to be lightning fast - he has a p4 with 256mb ram
[14:31] <sudobash> nope
[14:31] <pedro_> hey
[14:31] <ikonia> bn43: he's lacking a little ram
[14:31] <goog> Hey People! How would you updated Ubuntu 7 from Gimp 2.2 to the latest version?

[14:31] <pedro_> when I open it, I get a blank screen
[14:31] <rodolfo> DasEI and now it's just right click on it > format > fat32?
[14:31] <kanhiya78> please help me solving this
[14:31] <bennymack1> outbackwifi: 7.10 :)
[14:31] <sudobash> bn43 upgrade to 512
[14:31] <bn43> he only uses it for mail, opening office documents and internet
[14:31] <outbackwifi> bn43: go with DSL not ubuntu
[14:31] <jrib> Myrstidal: no problem!
[14:31] <ikonia> goog: you don't, it's not back ported
[14:32] <kanhiya78> i have monitor resolution problems and i am not able to get higher resolution
[14:32] <sudobash> or use Xubuntu
[14:32] <ikonia> goog: you'd need to update ubuntu
[14:32] <bn43> dsl?
[14:32] <pedro_> and when I open Gnome, metacity doesn't run!
[14:32] <sudobash> Damn Small Linux
[14:32] <dr_willis> mikebeecham,  depending on the codec and stuff you can often just 'cat' them together.. the mencoder faq mentions this topic.. and mencoder can do it. :)
[14:32] <DIFH-iceroot> bn43: xubuntu or dsl
[14:32] <DasEI> rodolfo:yup, and then apply button
[14:32] <heret1c> When starting up, the laptop touchpad doensn't work. Killing off mouseemu enables kbd, disables tpad. What's going on?
[14:32] <joaopinto> goog, you will need to compile from source, and still you may not have the required dev libraries so you are better by just upgrading your release
[14:32] <outbackwifi> bennymack1: the only way you can probably get a higher version of perl is to download and install with cpan
[14:32] <pedro_> I'm getting really annoyed with this
[14:32] <sudobash> Damn Small is harder to learn the xubuntu
[14:32] <kanhiya78> i have monitor resolution problems and i am not able to get higher resolution than 800x600
[14:32] <sudobash> for new ppl to linux
[14:32] <bn43> ah damn small

[14:33] <sudobash> damn small is super quick though
[14:33] <ribas1> sudobash: DSL is debian based, terminal should be almost the same
[14:33] <bn43> I just need to configure it for opening mail - thunderbird
[14:33] <DasEI> [newnick]:see http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/810  /rivate folder

[14:33] <blue112> Hello everyone, I've experimenting problem in connecting to an ssh-1 serv... Can I get some help ?
[14:33] <jrib> [newnick]: you can run ecryptfs-setup-private from the ecryptfs-utils package
[14:33] <rodolfo> DasEI thank you it worked ;)
[14:33] <joaopinto> sudobash, there is nothing harder on using xubuntu, and please stop doing off-topic chat here, try on #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:33] <DIFH-iceroot> blue112: just post your error
[14:33] <ribas1> sudobash: isn't knoppix debian based?
[14:33] <DasEI> rodolfo:oops, really ? np
[14:33] <[newnick]> thank  you
[14:33] <outbackwifi> theuniverse: the installed version of 8.10 has an option under system-adminstration
[14:33] <dr_willis> mikebeecham,  mencoder can do all sorts of things..  as i said it depends on the codec of the video also.
[14:33] <sudobash> you right lol
[14:33] <Myrstidal> jrib: Uh oh, this is a really newbish question, (I just started Ubuntu) but I got this "Package Configuration" window in my terminal
[14:33] <blue112> DIFH-iceroot: ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
[14:33] <sudobash> knoppix is debian lol

[14:34] <theuniverse> thank you

[14:34] <kanhiya78> anybody listen to me, i have monitor resolution problems and i am not able to get higher resolution
[14:34] <Myrstidal> jrib: What shall I do now?  Or what can I do?
[14:34] <blue112> DIFH-iceroot: I don't know why, but I think it's ssh-1.
[14:34] <joaopinto> blue112, is the sshd running and bind to the proper IP address on the server ?
[14:34] <outbackwifi> !patience | kanhiya78

[14:34] <blue112> joaopinto: I don't really know, I can't connect...
[14:34] <joaopinto> goog, you don't you should upgrade to the latest ubuntu version

[14:35] <goog> joaopinto: apt-get distupgrade?

[14:35] <Myrstidal> jrib: It's just "Configuring sun-java6-jre" and gives me a lot of legal jargon
[14:35] <rsa_md5> is python 2.6 in the repos for hardy?
[14:35] <joaopinto> blue112, if the problem is on the server and you are working on the client, no, you can't
[14:35] <mikebeecham> dr_willis...sorry mate, new linux user...that makes no sense to me what you just typed
[14:35] <Myrstidal> And I don't know how to accept it
[14:36] <jrib> Myrstidal: right, just accept (assuming you agree to sun's license)
[14:36] <pedro_> !xorg.conf
[14:36] <jrib> Myrstidal: hit enter, or maybe tab then enter
[14:36] <blue112> joaopinto: But maybe the problem is on the client ?
[14:36] <sudobash> bin is for binaries lib for libraries mnt for mounting
[14:36] <jrib> Myrstidal: or space bar.  A combination of those :)
[14:36] <blue112> I don't know anything about ssh-1, that's why i'm asking for help
[14:36] <joaopinto> Myrstidal, unless you have a specific need for the sun jre, you can use openjdk-6-jre, which does not have those legal requirements
[14:36] <dr_willis> mikebeecham,  time to learn some linux/command line basics then i guess.. thats about as basic a command as ya get...

[14:41] <Yuji1> zunk: No clue. :/
[14:41] <goog> No one answered, so I try again: Is updating from one version of ubuntu to another as good as installing the latest ubuntu from scratch, or are there any benefits in installing the latest version from scratch?
[14:42] <kanhiya78> ok  thanksyal of you
[14:42] <sudobash> goog I am doing it now
[14:42] <Yuji1> goog: Clean install sounds nice though. Personally I found upgrading from 8.04 to 8.10...Hell.
[14:42] <dft> goog: I went from 7.10 to 8.04 on two machines with great success
[14:42] <a_c_m> trying to get a webcam to work, it seems to be loaded (/dev/video0) but when i try to play out from it, i just get a green screen with some static on it. its a Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Communicate STX

[14:42] <a_c_m> anyone got any ideas?
[14:42] <sudobash> update-manager -d
[14:42] <outbackwifi_> blue112: is this the server log or client?
[14:42] <Yuji1> If 8.10 I'd just rather clean install from now on.
[14:42] <sudobash>  I will let you know
[14:42] <dft> although, clean installs are always the best
[14:42] <a_c_m> or were i should start looking
[14:42] <raheem> Yuji1: i did it successfully, though
[14:42] <blue112> outbackwifi_: Client. I can't access to server
[14:42] <Brucevdk> goog: I've recently upgraded to 8.10 from 7.04, clean installs are for wussies
[14:42] <zunk> Yujil: Ok. Ill try the forum. Less hectic. Thanks =)
[14:42] <sudobash> 1 minute remaining on dl
[14:42] <technopagan> goog: Well, upgrading from one version to another MIGHT cause problems in certain applications due to config-files left over in your home

[14:43] <zunk> haha.. damn.
[14:43] <raheem> Yuji1: yeah i guess so. i had to run it 4 times though =))

[14:43] <Yuji1> raheem: First one for me.
[14:43] <sudobash> it will be nice....
[14:43] <yoyoned> goog, it depends.  if you can back up all you data and don't care about any of the tweeks you have made, do the clean install.  Otherwise upgrade
[14:43] <dft> they reverted to sqlite2 from sqlite3
[14:43] <blue112> outbackwifi_: I want to use password auth.
[14:43] <Yuji1> raheem: After upgrade I now have a problem with Evolution. It does not SEND mail but can always receive?
[14:44] <sudobash> i didnt backup anything I am just trying the upgrade... I have confidence in this distro
[14:44] <Yuji1> sudobash: ...Well, prize for the brave one.
[14:44] <sudobash> I remember problems from 7.10 to 8.04
[14:44] <kanhiya78> DasEI: where you have gone
[14:44] <outbackwifi_> blue112: you can use that only if the server allows it
[14:44] <Yuji1> sudobash: I had none from 7.10 to 8.04..
[14:44] <Yuji1> xD
[14:44] <[newnick]> !gnome
[14:44] <raheem> never had such problem, except with the wifi broadcom driver, but that was my mistake
[14:44] <sudobash> strange.....
[14:44] <sparrow-jack_1> !Windows
[14:44] <goog> yoyoned: its not about my data. the data is always backupped. its about all the config stuff. i really deeple reconfig ubuntu when i use it.
[14:44] <sudobash> its different for everyone
[14:44] <kanhiya78> DasEI:  you was giving me answer
[14:45] <blue112> outbackwifi_: Server admin gives me a password, so I think that it allows it... But maybe i'm asking wrong ?
[14:45] <sudobash> installing upgrades
[14:45] <outbackwifi_> blue112: what command are you using to connect?
[14:45] <blue112> out
[14:45] <blue112> outbackwifi_: ssh -vv servrl -1
[14:46] <technopagan> goog: I did a clean install this time and it took me 4 days to get the system running the way I needed it ... So yeah, clean installs are exhausting
[14:46] <blue112> (with no -1 i've got the same error but with more debug, say it doesn't understand the key)
[14:46] <outbackwifi_> blue112: can you do a ssh -vv user@server-ip-address-or-hostname ?
[14:46] <blue112> Yep.
[14:46] <Yuji1> !evolution
[14:46] <sudobash> that why I said screw it if I have to recover my data I can
[14:46] <outbackwifi_> blue112: pastebin the output of that please
[14:47] <sudobash> it takes to long to clean install sometimes with backups and restores
[14:47] <kwak> hi,
[14:47] <DasEI>  kanhiya78:should work for you : http://pastebin.com/m44be157d
[14:47] <kwak> i'm going to buy new computers this week for our lab and was thinking if it's better to go wireless than wired. any suggestions?
[14:47] <kanhiya78> DasEI:  let me try
[14:47] <Yuji1> Wired.
[14:47] <blue112> outbackwifi_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/69652/
[14:48]  * DreadKnight ~ hello! how can i record sound using a microphone in ubuntu (intrepid) ?
[14:48] <DasEI>  kanhiya78:backup your old xorg.conf first
[14:48] <Yuji1> No transmit problems by wired.
[14:48] <kanhiya78> DasEI: how i am new to linux
[14:48]  * Yuji1 grumbles, wishing he was wired, but he'd have a line across the block...*cough WEP brute*
[14:49] <DasEI>  kanhiya78:mind a pm ?
[14:49] <snowrichard> I'm on with my wireless card now
[14:49] <outbackwifi_> kwak: you would be faster than wired @100mb/s if you went 802.11n
[14:49] <DasEI> !pm > kanhiya78
[14:50] <sudobash> WEP brute with Back|Track or did you just install all the tools in Ubuntu?
[14:50] <blue112> outbackwifi_ ?
[14:50] <kwak> outbackwifi_ ic, my only concern is wireless cards that is compatible and will work out of the box with intrepid
[14:50] <outbackwifi_> blue112: that isnt making sense. your connection attempt isnt going farther than the key exchange; has this worked before?
[14:50] <Yuji1> outbackwifi_: Incorrect assumption.
[14:51] <Yuji1> Wired can easily surpass wireless.
[14:51] <blue112> outbackwifi_: It works, but not for me ^^'
[14:51] <outbackwifi_> Yuji1: ok, we're comparing apples to oranges
[14:51] <blue112> Now it doesn't work for the one who tries before.
[14:51] <DasEI>  kanhiya78 : I'll send you pm, right ?
[14:52] <outbackwifi_> blue112: before?
[14:52] <Yuji1> ...I prefer apples, but still. Stem and colors and taste need be taken into account.
[14:52] <blue112> outbackwifi_: before it doesn't xD
[14:52] <Yuji1> Wired, no transmit problems, phones, etc. Has capability to surpass wireless speeds.
[14:52] <goog> technopagan: any benefit of clean installs over incremental installs?
[14:52] <Yuji1> Wireless, no cords every where, eh...Hrm, thats about it for that..
[14:53] <kanhiya78> DasEI: see my private message
[14:53] <outbackwifi_> blue112: im all confused. do this and try again.. run ssh-keygen to generate your keys. delete known_hosts
[14:53] <DaveDixonII> Anyone know where i can download the Ubuntu login screen for xUbuntu?
[14:54]  * outbackwifi_ needs to step out for dinner
[14:54] <blue112> Ok
[14:54] <snowrichard> it auto connected to my wireless after reboot cool
[14:54] <kwak> well, ok. the lab will be used just for browsing let's say. will this be a problem?
[14:54] <technopagan> goog: Well, had the chance to encrypt my partititions + I took the chance to clean up my files -> Freed 3 Gigs by that ;)
[14:54] <kwak> what are the drawbacks?
[14:54] <Halow> DaveDixonII: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[14:54] <blue112> outbackwifi_: It doesn't ask me to add it to the knows hosts :/
[14:54] <killerbyte> hello
[14:54] <killerbyte> can anybody see this message?
[14:54] <DaveDixonII> Halow: I already have xUbuntu
[14:54] <Halow> DaveDixonII: When you log in, choose the Xfce Session instead of Gnome.
[14:55] <killerbyte> i seem to have a large lag
[14:55] <Halow> DaveDixonII: Oh, other way around. XD ubuntu-desktop, Gnome instead.
[14:55] <technopagan> goog: Plus it is extra hard tracking down bugs caused by incremental updates...
[14:55] <Yuji1> kwak: Well I kinda already said, but eh..
[14:55] <DaveDixonII> Halow: I dont think you understand. I just want the login screen.

[14:56] <billgoldberg> Hi,  a little quesion. I'm trying to install Ubuntu on the Asus eeepc 900. I created a bootable partition on my external hdd and added a boot flag to it. When I boot from the external hdd, it never start booting. Could this be because in gparted the bootable partition is listing as extended and is only the second partition. Does it has to be the first partition?
[14:56] <Halow> DaveDixonII: You want the Ubuntu login screen for Xubuntu? They both use GDM, do they not?
