[12:07] <MikeReiner> ziroday: haha I can't believe how bad ATi can be on linux
[12:07] <digital_k> Mike have you tried reconfiguring xorg to use the vesa driver instead?
[12:07] <zcat[1] > my ati worked ot of the box.. no 3d though of course..
[12:07] <driss> hi
[12:07] <Matrik> ziroday: It's still enjoyable
[12:07] <crdlb> actually old ati cards are supported extremely well
[12:07] <ziroday> MikeReiner: its unbelievable only one worst is creative
[12:07] <crdlb> as in full 3d
[12:08] <crdlb> just not new ones :|
[12:08] <zcat[1] > ati rage mobility in my lappy.. never had a problem with it.
[12:08] <MikeReiner> digital_k: No, I haven't. Is there a section in there that I can set it to vesa with?
[12:08] <digital_k> crdlb that is true somewhat, but the igp 340m is an oddball chipset
[12:08] <digital_k> even in the windows world...lol
[12:08] <Matrik> ziroday: but I prefer the True Combat Elite mod for enemy terrirtory
[12:08] <ziroday> crdlb: yeah but i have resolution issues that are unbelivable
[12:08] <ziroday> Matrik: thanks
[12:08] <theINC> you know what Ubuntu needs: Get Ubuntu ads, like the Mac posse have
[12:08] <digital_k> well you can open terminal and run the reconfigure command from there
[12:09] <ziroday> theINC: they also need money
[12:09] <theINC> lol.
[12:09] <zcat[1] > theINC: Novell's doing a few
[12:09] <MikeReiner> well i have xorg.confg open right now in gedit as root
[12:09] <catulluspoeta> remember the firefox new york times ad?
[12:09] <driss> if i run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and i choose the screen resolutions i want to have enabled and later restart the x-server or run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg again, the screen resolutions i chose are not available anymore.
[12:09] <zcat[1] > I have mixed feelings about novell though
[12:09] <ziroday> zcat[1] : same
[12:09] <driss> could this be because the graphic card doesn't support it?
[12:09] <driss> or is it a bug?
[12:09] <digital_k> i think novell is hurting open source, thats just an opinion.
[12:09] <cressy> How do i give all users access to my usb harddisk? (i run the latest version of ubuntu)
[12:10] <theINC> Hmm, I saw a Get a Mac ad on Engadget (Flash), and it's not on the apple site.
[12:10] <zcat[1] > they're also fighting SCO..  "Are you running Linux?" No..." "comeon, there's no shame"
[12:11] <theINC> see, those ads don't actually explain WHY Linux is better than PC/Linux.
[12:11] <theINC> *Mac.
[12:11] <driss> MikeReiner: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:11] <georgy_> MikeReiner, : sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:11] <zcat[1] > theINC: no, the latest is an i'm a mac, I'm a PC parody.. cute girl comes in and she's Linux..
[12:11] <digital_k> yes : sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg in terminal
[12:11] <MikeReiner> thanks you two heh
[12:11] <MikeReiner> or three
[12:11] <digital_k> thats a graphical walk thru
[12:11] <MikeReiner> k brb
[12:12] <digital_k> the only thing you need to change is when it first opens
[12:12] <digital_k> scroll down and select the vesa driver
[12:12] <catulluspoeta> zcat: what should i search for on youtube to find that?
[12:12] <digital_k> just click yes on the rest or change what you need in the other screens
[12:12] <theINC> zcat[1] : most linux distribs ('cept for Ubuntu of course) actually look like 'a cute girl' compared to OS X ;)
[12:12] <zcat[1] > "novell linux" I guess...
[12:12] <catulluspoeta> found it
[12:12] <driss> digital_k: do you have an idea about my question, too?
[12:13] <theINC> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVOnFdMf0RU
[12:13] <digital_k> i dont like the arrogant attitude of mac users towards ubuntu
[12:13] <digital_k> they highly underestimate it
[12:13] <El_Burro> they will learn :)
[12:13] <theINC> digital_k: stop glaring your virtual eyes at me ;) I'm downloading the ISO of Ubuntu on my Mac ATM
[12:13] <theINC> and I plan to dual-boot my Windoze PC.
[12:13] <digital_k> lol
[12:13] <theINC> I use all 3.
[12:13] <catulluspoeta> bah it's not funny
[12:13] <ncd> why
[12:13] <georgy_> We have bought a Macbook, and it work faster and better with feisty than MacOSx, ;)
[12:13] <digital_k> mac is ok for what it does, but apple takes alot from open source
[12:14] <digital_k> and they do not readily give back
[12:14] <zcat[1] > haha that was a guess, but the ad I'm talking about is first hit for "novell linux" in a google video search
[12:14] <zcat[1] > also third and fourth...
[12:14] <theINC> and incidentally Google Video searches YouTube
[12:14] <theINC> as well as Google's own repository.
[12:14] <zcat[1] > gootube?
[12:14] <digital_k> yes theINC
[12:15] <digital_k> it does now
[12:15] <joe7d6> the MS novell deal was simply business strategy, a bad/stupid one though. i think it will hurt novell in the long run. when i heard dell is in for the ms-novell deal providing suse linux enterprise server for their linux customers. i just sick of it...  (a ex suse user)
[12:15] <snowblind> Hi. does anyone here use xscreem (web dev IDE)
[12:15] <snowblind> ?
[12:15] <ncd> dell should piss off
[12:15] <cressy> How do i give all users access to my usb harddisk? (i run the latest version of ubuntu)
[12:15] <digital_k> the thing that gets me is that ms keeps saying that linux uses their innovations only they never said what exactly....
[12:15] <zcat[1] > I don't think the novell deal is going to hurn linux as much as it will hurt novell..
[12:15] <Hencke> I still prefer openSUSE over novell suse
[12:15] <ncd> m$ know they are disgraced
[12:15] <snowblind> cressy - console sudo nautilus
[12:16] <theINC> haha, it's funny because she says that open-source software (a jacket) will probably work on Mac but Windows will be wearing his leather (Vista) jacket for another 6 years or so
[12:16] <snowblind> then navigate to /media/usbdrivename
[12:16] <cressy> snowblind, thanks ill give it a try
[12:16] <snowblind> right click and go permissions, its pretty simple from there
[12:17] <ncd> Novel wanted to play corperate chargy chargey now they see that open source is better they want to play that instead
[12:17] <theINC>  okay, one ad suggests that the Mac guy designed a t-shirt on ilife = impossible
[12:17] <hagg1> !renew
[12:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about renew - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:17] <ncd> companys like them should of been locked in the opensource legalies
[12:17] <catulluspoeta> haha i like the jacket ad
[12:17] <theINC> GET UR FAXTZ RITE NOBELL
[12:17] <ncd> locked out*

[12:18] <ubotu> The #ubuntu-trivia channel is a place for testing your brain power and having fun! We schedule themed quizzes, every Friday, to test your knowledge of your favourite operating system (Ubuntu, of course!) and keep you exercising those cranial muscles.
[12:18] <zcat[1] > I like the #1 ad.. "how long have you been standing there?" "a long time.."
[12:18] <theINC> ubotu: I so have to steal that Idea for #macosx
[12:18] <joe7d6> novell has quite some cool stuff going on (at brainshare). but some of those is not exactly open source. ie suse linux real time. wheres the code? ...
[12:19] <catulluspoeta> !random
[12:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about random - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[12:19] <u-foka> Hy! Anyone can tell me something about ext2 / ext3 compression?
[12:19] <digital_k> file system comression?
[12:19] <u-foka> yes
[12:19] <joe7d6> !ext3
[12:19] <ubotu> ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[12:19] <theINC> 'There are an estimated 30 million Linux users out there" - not much.
[12:19] <u-foka> like ntfs
[12:19] <digital_k> compression*
[12:20] <digital_k> why would one need to compress the file system?
[12:20] <zaggynl> Does ubuntu hold statistics on how much it's used?
[12:20] <zigico> !software
[12:20] <ubotu> A general introduction to the ways software can be installed, removed and managed in Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoftwareManagement - See also !Packages, !Equivalents
[12:20] <zaggynl> or at least installed
[12:20] <u-foka> i have a small 10 gb external drive for my backup
[12:20] <digital_k> well i saw a recent video zaggynl and they claimed 6 million users
[12:20] <joe7d6> who use opera instead of firefox here? here
[12:20] <digital_k> im sure its more
[12:21] <digital_k> i use epiphany instead of firefox
[12:21] <zaggynl> would be cool if they had any online statistics, users per country, rate going up/down
[12:21] <zcat[1] > the thing is, I download one iso and burn off a dozen CD's from it, so nobody really knows...
[12:21] <crimsun> Tonnerre: about...?
[12:21] <ghatak> Hello guys, how do i easily convert .avi (divx) to SVCD or DVD
[12:21] <zcat[1] > and each of those CD's might end up installing on multiple machines
[12:21] <digital_k> well zcat i am sure its on many noninternet connected machines as well
[12:21] <digital_k> so really no way of knowing
[12:22] <zcat[1] > ghatak: devede
[12:22] <ncd> locked out dell, novell and m$  etc, from using it in anyway shape or form .... eg: they would be restricted from benifiting them selfs buy distrubution
[12:22] <zcat[1] > !info devede
[12:22] <ubotu> devede: Video DVD creator. In component multiverse, is optional.  Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[12:24] <ompaul> ncd, please mind your lanaguage this is a family friendly channel thanks
[12:24] <zaggynl> okami, thanks
[12:24] <cbs> how do I mount a CD *.ISO file from command line?

[12:25] <zcat[1] > joe7d6: nobody says you can't 'sell' free software. But the competition is a bit harsh..

[12:26] <David__> anyonr going to help?
[12:26] <digital_k> defian have you tried the restricted drivers manager?
[12:27] <zcat[1] > cbs: make an empty directory first (sudo mkdir /mount/cdrom) and try again
[12:27] <Defian> digital_k: Yeah, i'm using those drivers right now.
[12:27] <ncd> i was gona say ubuntus website needs to point out the fact that LINUX is driving it .. and what linux is a bit more indepth
[12:27] <David__> ??
[12:27] <David__> help guys
[12:27] <cbs> OH DUH...not /mount.../media
[12:27] <shuan_> whats wrong with dell?
[12:27] <zcat[1] > ncd: people are afraid of linux. Linux is hard and unfamiliar
[12:27] <digital_k> i believe the xorg configuration can be manually edited to add refresh rates, but I have never done that.
[12:27] <digital_k> and I dont want to give you wrong info.
[12:27] <ncd> like you know the readme file in the kernel .. .the one that patronises the living shit out of windows with out even mentioning windows once
[12:28] <zcat[1] > cbs: ahh yeah, that too
[12:28] <Defian> digital_k: At the worst case scenario, I know how to use the command prompt to restore my backed up xorg.conf.. i'm 'less' of a linux noob than I was yesterday :P
[12:28] <ziroday> who can help me with dependancy problems installing urban terror
[12:28] <David__> ??
[12:28] <shuan_> is there any way i can restore a file that i have sent to the trash can
[12:28] <digital_k> defian...lol ;)

[12:29] <David__> ok hold
[12:29] <digital_k> thats not hard

[12:30] <David__> i get a reply
[12:30] <allblacks> hi i have a question : i have a TV tuner card from Kworld PVR 878 how can i make it work on UBUNTU , or better asked is how can i make my tv tuner run under ubuntu
[12:30] <BossMania> hello... after i try  "/etc/init.d/xinetd restart " i have a message when i want to connect to my ftp ( ftp localhost 21 ) " ftp: ftp/tcp: unknown service "
[12:30] <okami> David__: The problem is your system can't resolve host names in to ip addresses
[12:30] <kust0m> allblacks: install tvtime
[12:30] <NNForcer> but
[12:30] <okami> David__: What does your /etc/resolv.conf say?
[12:30] <zcat[1] > allblacks: install tvtime and see if it got detected already?
[12:30] <MistaED> allblacks, is it analog or digital first
[12:30] <NNForcer> i can ping google.com
[12:31] <NNForcer> ok hold on let me chack
[12:31] <zcat[1] > MistaED: bt878 means analog I think..
[12:31] <kust0m> allblacks: bt878 based..it's analog
[12:31] <joe7d6> im new to debian based distro. whats the difference between apt-get and aptitude? (it's still better than suse's 200mb memory hogging yast and smart ;)
[12:31] <okami> NNForcer, You mean ping www.google.com works
[12:31] <allblacks> analog
[12:31] <NNForcer> yea
[12:31] <kust0m> yeah, what he said.
[12:31] <MistaED> zcat[1] , mine is a digital and it's a brooktree 878
[12:31] <okami> Hmmm...
[12:31] <kust0m> MistaED: can you plug normal tv cable into it?
[12:31] <zcat[1] > hmm, ok :)
[12:31] <NNForcer> my resolv.conf dsyd
[12:31] <NNForcer> says*
[12:31] <MikeReiner> digital_k: I can see again without my eyes bleeding, Weeeee
[12:31] <allblacks> yes
[12:32] <NNForcer> nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[12:32] <MistaED> kust0m, it's terrestrial digital, uses the dvb-bt8xx module
[12:32] <allblacks> ok so i will use apt get tvtime??
[12:32] <kust0m> MistaED: random. didn't know that.
[12:32] <MistaED> allblacks, yep
[12:32] <peterka> how install seamonkey in 7.04?
[12:32] <MikeReiner> well apt-get actually
[12:32] <MikeReiner> and probably as sudo :P
[12:32] <NNForcer> ?
[12:32] <digital_k> apt-get and aptitude are essentially the same
[12:32] <MikeReiner> or root if you want proper terminology
[12:32] <zcat[1] > allblacks: cool, sudo apt-get install tvtime   in a terminal should do it..
[12:32] <digital_k> yay mikereiner! it worked?
[12:32] <okami> NNForcer, Do you have a local DNS server at <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[12:33] <NNForcer> u mean a router?
[12:33] <digital_k> i personally use apt-get
[12:33] <digital_k> all the time
[12:33] <NNForcer> ive got a router that i believe is <IP_ADDRESS>
[12:33] <MikeReiner> digital_k: well it's back to square 1 actually. See, i'm running 85Hz.. but UT04 thinks it's 50Hz.. thus fps is capped at 50... which is just not cool.
[12:33] <kust0m> MistaED: I have a DVB-S card. I might have to bust that out and see if I can get it to work.
[12:33] <zcat[1] > or aptitude, or synaptic, or the add/remove programsthing..
[12:33] <TheUnknownOne> I think I broke my xfce session.
[12:33] <digital_k> 50 fps can cause a seizure....geez
[12:33] <allblacks> also i would like to thank to the ubuntu comunity you help me quit on WIn
[12:33] <okami> NNForcer, Ok.. try this..
[12:33] <digital_k> thats alot of flashing isnt it
[12:34] <NNForcer> yep...
[12:34] <ncd> digital_k, really?
[12:34] <MikeReiner> it hurts my eyes after a few minutes
[12:34] <digital_k> well depending on the person, id say yes
[12:34] <zcat[1] > no, .ro? wtf?
[12:34] <okami> NNForcer, edit "sudo nano /etc/resolv.conf and add the line "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>" to the beginning
[12:34] <MikeReiner> well it's like, when you run a game that is sorta demanding.. the fps can go all over the place.. but it's just plain locked at 50.. where the refresh rate is 85... so it's ALWAYS showing the same frames a few times before updating
[12:35] <ncd> wow when something packs up on your gpu drops you down to 50fps and you wake up in ICU.. you know who too sue
[12:35] <TheUnknownOne> Does anyone know what to do about a screwed-over XFCE session?
[12:35] <NNForcer> ok
[12:35] <NNForcer> then do what
[12:35] <zcat[1] > TheUnknownOne: ctrl-alt-backspace perhaps?
[12:35] <NNForcer> try a site?
[12:35] <ghatak> Hi, i use ubuntu with no GUI, I have dual core system. how i check if both of my cpu cores are being used, and if they are how much each of them..... ?
[12:35] <digital_k> whats happened the unkownone?
[12:35] <allblacks> question : in Romania we use Pal-BG format and Tvtime has only PAL PAL nc PAl M Pal N PAL 60 option what should i chose
[12:35] <okami> NNForcer, So the first line in your /etc/resolv.conf reads: nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[12:35] <okami> NNForcer, Correct?
[12:35] <TheUnknownOne> I log in using XFCE session, it's a blank but ubuntu-default screen, and nothing happens.
[12:35] <NNForcer> yed
[12:36] <NNForcer> yes
[12:36] <NNForcer> (new keyboard still getting used to it
[12:36] <okami> NNForcer, Ok, try firefox again
[12:36] <TheUnknownOne> I can press the power button and log out back into GNOME, but it's annoying me\.
[12:36] <NNForcer> ok
[12:36] <digital_k> sounds like your xorg was improperly configured
[12:36] <digital_k> and you are getting terminal
[12:36] <TheUnknownOne> -\
[12:36] <zcat[1] > allblacks: pick one at random, if the colour doesn't look right pick another..
[12:36] <TheUnknownOne> I'm not getting terminal, it's a brown colour.
[12:36] <digital_k> do you get the login window at all?
[12:36] <NNForcer> WOO HOO
[12:36] <NNForcer> internet
[12:36] <digital_k> try changing the session
[12:37] <Yancho> hi i just installed pgadminIII but it is not appearing in the menu .. how can i know where it auto installed pls ?
[12:37] <ompaul> TheUnknownOne, ctrl alt f1 and then - sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg - then try your custom settings after that
[12:37] <joe7d6> ghatak: maybe cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ or cat /proc/cpuinfo
[12:37] <okami> NNForcer, :-) .. now check out www.opendns.com (that's where I got that <IP_ADDRESS> number from)
[12:38] <NNForcer> so what is actualy happening?
[12:38] <digital_k> i use opendns as well okami
[12:38] <digital_k> it is really fast
[12:38] <kust0m> NNForcer: DNS resolves an IP address to a domain name. Yours wasn't working.
[12:38] <NNForcer> am i using that dns as a server or sumthing (im s programmer so not a noob but im new to networking)
[12:38] <MikeReiner> uhg.. linux is so frustrating sometimes
[12:38] <NNForcer> oh
[12:38] <MikeReiner> I apparently broke my ut2004.. somehow.
[12:38] <Yancho> anyone knows where is the file pg_ctl in ubuntu pls ?
[12:38] <NNForcer> would this be rith
[12:38] <zcat[1] > how does opendnd work, and is it reasonably safe from poisoning?
[12:39] <NNForcer> sudo apt-get wine
[12:39] <digital_k> i think so zcat
[12:39] <kust0m> NNForcer: yep.
[12:39] <digital_k> ive never had an issue with it
[12:39] <digital_k> and i like the auto domain correction it uses
[12:39] <okami> NNForcer, You system was asking the system at <IP_ADDRESS> to resolve (change) the host name into an ip address but since the system at <IP_ADDRESS> doesn't know how... you weren't able to surf
[12:39] <ncd> MikeReiner, when your saying that about distros you have progressed to level 1.5
[12:39] <digital_k> say, you type google.comm or something it corrects it and sends you to the right place
[12:39] <joe7d6> opendns works fine for me :)
[12:39] <soundray> Do you guys know of any firefox extensions that let one attach notes to web pages?
[12:39] <zcat[1] > I might make a note of it, could be handy next time I need a dns server on some oddball network..
[12:40] <TheUnknownOne> digital_k: when I select xfce as my session, and log in, all I get is a blank brown screen, and no panel or icons.
[12:40] <digital_k> i have my router configured to use opendns as a nameserver as well
[12:40] <Yancho> yancho@Ubuntu:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/post* restart worked :)
[12:40] <MikeReiner> ncd: yeah well, to someone with little experience.. the first month is frustrating as hell.
[12:40] <NNForcer> thanx guys
[12:40] <NNForcer> u help me after ages
[12:40] <NNForcer> of waiting*
[12:40] <digital_k> TheUnknownOne: are you running ubuntu with xfce installed ?
[12:40] <okami> :-)
[12:40] <nonZero> Hi There!  anybody knows if it's possible to tame application windows to be closed with double click on the window menu (upper left corner)?
[12:41] <digital_k> you shouldnt get a brown screen in xubuntu
[12:41] <digital_k> im thinking
[12:41] <TheUnknownOne> digital_k: Yes. And kubuntu, and xubuntu.
[12:41] <allblacks> i have installed TV time and i have scanned the channels and i have a beautiful blue screen ( not WIN type) but no channels. does it require to have " a driver" for my tvtuner\?
[12:41] <digital_k> ahh i see
[12:41] <MikeReiner> well.. i DO like this
[12:41] <MikeReiner> but I just hate it when things that are completely unexplainable happen
[12:41] <zcat[1] > allblacks: no, but possibly it's got the card type wrong..
[12:41] <kust0m> allblacks: I believe it's included. bt878 is rather common. Can you change the input?
[12:42] <MikeReiner> for the past hour i've been playing around with xorg.. I made a backup before I did anything.. and just now I put my backed up one back in place so everything is back to how it was.. yet ut04 all of a sudden doesn't start anymore
[12:42] <ncd> there was no ubuntu channels when me and pals got intoo linux
[12:42] <MikeReiner> I had been playing for like 2 hours before that
[12:42] <ncd> just allot of grumpy bastards sceaming rtfm
[12:42] <ncd> hah :)
[12:42] <kust0m> ncd: sounds like when i started with slackware.
[12:42] <TheUnknownOne> digital_k: I've tried getting rid of the xfce config files. Didn't work.
[12:42] <allblacks> yes i can change the input , but into what?
[12:42] <MikeReiner> haha fedora was my first linux experience, then slackware
[12:42] <digital_k> ive used Ubuntu for 3 years, and the only problems I have had came from tweaking when I shouldnt have...lol
[12:42] <digital_k> it works well out of the box
[12:42] <eternaljoy> Can any rootkits, spyware, trojans or virus etc install onto Feisty Ubuntu if I visit bad websites using Opera?
[12:43] <kust0m> allblacks: tuner? dono.
[12:43] <digital_k> eternal, i think not.
[12:43] <feonix> eternaljoy, are you asking if they can or if it's likely they will?
[12:43] <zcat[1] > allblacks: set the input to 'tuner', if that's not the problem look through the output of dmesg and see if it identified the card correctly...
[12:43] <kust0m> eternaljoy: i doubt most websites are going to target linux.
[12:43] <feonix> Cause if you're asking if they CAN...
[12:43] <feonix> Then yes
[12:43] <feonix> If you're asking if it's likely... No
[12:43] <MikeReiner> most people use windows still, so making a virus for linux is sorta rare
[12:43] <allblacks> i have only the options television composite 1 ,3 and S-video
[12:43] <peterka> digital_k:http://youtube.com/watch?v=FPE9-YozpyQ
[12:44] <eternaljoy> feonix: so how would I know if Ubunt is infected with any rootkits, spyware, trojans or virus etc?
[12:44] <digital_k> making a virus for linux would be alot of work, and i think no one is willing to do it.
[12:44] <BossMania> hello... after i try  "/etc/init.d/xinetd restart " i have a message when i want to connect to my ftp ( ftp localhost 21 ) " ftp: ftp/tcp: unknown service "
[12:44] <kust0m> allblacks: television
[12:44] <feonix> beats me I'm a newb to linux
[12:44] <feonix> At least when it comes to checking for virii or whatnot
[12:44] <zcat[1] > MikeReiner: also if most users are in the habit of installing new software from repos then a virus or spyware is not going to get far
[12:44] <eternaljoy> how would I know if Ubunt is infected with any rootkits, spyware, trojans or virus etc?
[12:44] <digital_k> rootkits? thats not possible with linux , is it?
[12:45] <kust0m> eternaljoy: they have AV for linux, such as ClamAV. there's also tools to check for rootkits, although not foolproof.
[12:45] <MikeReiner> zcat[1] : yeah, and bogus repos can only be added if done intentionally by the user
[12:45] <glick> hey in some programs that you need to be root to run like wireshark for example ubuntu will ask you your username before it launches the program
[12:45] <kust0m> digital_k: why not?
[12:45] <eternaljoy> whats a good AV for Ubuntu?
[12:45] <eternaljoy> !av
[12:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about av - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:45] <n4th4n> hi, need wifi help - dlink dwl-520 (atheros 5212/madwifi) worked fine under edgy amd64, but after clean install of feisty amd64, wifi not working. ping to AP drops 50-90% of packets. iwconfig shows freq switching constantly. help!
[12:45] <zcat[1] > digital_k: I can assure you it IS.. had to reinstall a webserver more than once :(
[12:45] <peterka> eternaljoy: If you willtry install win on vmware or qemu:)
[12:45] <digital_k> lol
[12:45] <glick> how can i do that with my own programs that require the user to be root?
[12:45] <marcosc> has anyone installed the ATI drivers from AMD?
[12:45] <ncd> there are virus guards for linux
[12:45] <eternaljoy> peterka: why?
[12:45] <eternaljoy> ncd: like what?
[12:45] <feonix> peterka, is qemu better than vmware?
[12:45] <crdlb> marcosc: fglrx?
[12:45] <digital_k> well in linux, you can really get your system owned if you allow it. it kinda happens on its own with windows. ;)
[12:46] <digital_k> thats what i was getting at
[12:46] <flapster> eternaljoy, You only really need one if you intend to connect to windows pcs or run say a email server
[12:46] <tarzeau> feonix: yes
[12:46] <eternaljoy> how can I check my ubuntu for rootkits, spyware, trojans or virus etc?  What programs do I need?
[12:46] <kust0m> eternaljoy: get clamav.
[12:46] <crdlb> !info chkrootkit
[12:46] <ubotu> chkrootkit: Checks for signs of rootkits on the local system. In component main, is optional. Version 0.47-1build1 (feisty), package size 263 kB, installed size 740 kB
[12:46] <eternaljoy> flapster: but some ppl just told I may be infected
[12:46] <MikeReiner> ahahahahhahahahaha
[12:46] <zcat[1] > If you're not running a sshd, or an ftp server, or apache with some php script, the chanes of getting 0wned is just about zero..
[12:46] <kust0m> !info clamav
[12:46] <ubotu> clamav: antivirus scanner for Unix. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.90.2-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 849 kB, installed size 1280 kB
[12:46] <ncd> for the life of me i cant rember any names now
[12:46] <marcosc> crdlb, http://ati.de/support/drivers/linux/linux-radeon.html
[12:46] <n4th4n> eternaljoy: ps ax
[12:46] <Swetcurseee89> s
[12:46] <soundray> digital_k: that's right. You can't normally install a rootkit on Linux, unless there is a privilege escalation vulnerability. But those do exist, and so do rootkits.
[12:46] <ncd> but I know they are out there
[12:46] <theINC> could anyone find a tutorial about how to install Ubuntu, after Vista's been installed, to allow a dual-boot?
[12:46] <peterka> feonix: that was joke
[12:46] <eternaljoy> kust0m: does clamav update virus data files?
[12:47] <MikeReiner> ncd: I found out why ut04 isn't working
[12:47] <eternaljoy> n4th4n: ps ax ?
[12:47] <TheUnknownOne> marcosc: Yes I have, but it screwed over my login-logout commands.
[12:47] <glick> does anyone have any idea how to do that?
[12:47] <digital_k> good to know soundray, thanks
[12:47] <crdlb> marcosc: that's fglrx
[12:47] <feonix> I know I've just never heard of qemu before
[12:47] <crdlb> which is in ubuntu's repos
[12:47] <kust0m> eternaljoy: they release new defs daily.
[12:47] <TheUnknownOne> marcosc: Gave me damn decent 3d though...
[12:47] <crdlb> marcosc: what ati card do you have?
[12:47] <glick> how can i make ubuntu ask for the root program before it launches my program?
[12:47] <tawooh> attempting to install java 6, anyone know how to do this easily??
[12:47] <n4th4n> eternaljoy: yep. type at command prompt
[12:47] <MikeReiner> ncd: I was playing around for a moment, and set the res to 1600x1200 in ut04.. because I had added that res in the xorg... but then I changed it back.. so ut04 is like "WTF man.. there is no option for 1600x1200.."
[12:47] <marcosc> crdlb, X1600
[12:47] <eternaljoy> n4th4n: why?
[12:47] <marcosc> crdlb, mobility
[12:47] <kust0m> glick: are you using a shell script or something?
[12:47] <crdlb> marcosc: did you enable the restricted driver?
[12:48] <crdlb> glick: gksu
[12:48] <marcosc> crdlb, it failed?
[12:48] <MikeReiner> I feel like a nub
[12:48] <glick> kust0m, no its a custom program im writting
[12:48] <marcosc> crdlb, and I cant seem to get it back up?
[12:48] <glick> gksu?
[12:48] <crdlb> marcosc: that's the same driver
[12:48] <kust0m> glick: gksu is a graphical version of 'su' i believe.
[12:48] <crdlb> glick: gksu is a graphical version of sudo
[12:48] <crdlb> no gksu = gksudo
[12:48] <n4th4n> eternaljoy: it will tell you all processes running, for all users, regardless of controlling tty. the trick is to spot what shouldn't be running ;)
[12:48] <marcosc> crdlb, oh ok... do you know how I can get that screen up again to re-enable it.. or how to do it from the command line?
[12:48] <babimbab> irc.quikanet.org
[12:49] <TeleSkier> How do I add a Feisty CD to my repository list?
[12:49] <glick> coool
[12:49] <eternaljoy> n4th4n: i dont have the experience to know what shouldnt be running
[12:49] <glick> thanks
[12:49] <allblacks> ok i have change the input on PAL table frequency to europe and then scan channels and nothing
[12:49] <crdlb> marcosc: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[12:49] <crdlb> and choose vesa
[12:49] <n4th4n> eternaljoy: fair enough.
[12:49] <crdlb> that will get you X
[12:49] <Swetcurseee89> irc.sevgimnet.com
[12:49] <eternaljoy> n4th4n: do you?
[12:49] <zcat[1] > eternaljoy: seriously, if you're just doing ordinary desktop stuff and install software from the official repositories, there is basically zero chance of getting any viruses or spyware in ubuntu.
[12:50] <Swetcurseee89> irc.sevgimnet.com  http://www.sevgimnet.com
[12:50] <eternaljoy> zcat[1] : I visit many websites.
[12:50] <n4th4n> eternaljoy: not really, but i could compare it with mine...
[12:50] <eternaljoy> zcat[1] : can I get something using Opera?
[12:50] <feonix> n4th4n, couldn't someone change ps to exclude listing their rootkit? :)
[12:50] <eternaljoy> n4th4n: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20626/
[12:50] <crdlb> eternaljoy: you really can't get spyware from websites
[12:50] <crdlb> on linux
[12:50] <kust0m> eternaljoy: don't run it as root, and it's not likely.

[12:52] <feonix> eternaljoy, if you do "sudo opera" it means you ran opera as the superuser.. meaning if someone can exploit your browser they'll have root on your system
[12:53] <eternaljoy> i typed: sudo apt-get install clamav   But how I now run it?
[12:53] <feonix> That is why you don't run things as root
[12:53] <eternaljoy> feonix: ok
[12:53] <kust0m> eternaljoy: run it without the 'sudo'
[12:53] <kust0m> eternaljoy: it runs as a daemon i think.
[12:53] <eternaljoy> kust0m: ok
[12:53] <ubuntuEdgy> no one can exploit opera

[12:54] <n4th4n> hi, need wifi help - dlink dwl-520 (atheros 5212/madwifi) worked fine under edgy amd64, but after clean install of feisty amd64, wifi not working. ping to AP drops 50-90% of packets. iwconfig shows freq switching constantly. help!
[12:54] <crdlb> marcosc: which the restricted manager should have installed if you ran it
[12:54] <kust0m> Desmaano: it's some kind of read error..you got this ona  cd?
[12:54] <crdlb> if not: follow

[12:54] <Endlessguitar> when I activated my desktop effects been all windows maximed so I cant move em anything how do I change it ?
[12:54] <zcat[1] > eternaljoy: there's a thing called 'freshclam' which updates it in the background..
[12:54] <defrysk> eternaljoy, thats all I know, i never use it
[12:54] <eternaljoy> ok cheers
[12:54] <theINC> question: if I'm installing Ubuntu, it comes with Gnome Partition Editor, so I'll be able to assign, say 40GB or so to it, and that'll let me dual-boot?
[12:54] <tom_g> hi all, can anyone that runs ut2004 on intel gfx please give me a hand with something, im getting strange white flashes every so often in the game, anyone got a clue?
[12:54] <kust0m> zcat[1] : I'm going to install that right now. :)
[12:54] <eternaljoy> i also was told to use rkhunter. any good?
[12:54] <Desmaano> kust0m: No i get it when i move files to my ubuntu fileserver from a windows client
[12:54] <feonix> n4th4n, can you do something like iwconfig ath0 channel 11?
[12:55] <kust0m> Desmaano: goooood luck.
[12:55] <crdlb> Endlessguitar: you mean you have no titlebars?
[12:55] <Desmaano> so why should ubuntu reject some of my files ?
[12:55] <ncd> yeah that is one major credit to ubuntu's installer
[12:55] <digital_k> so getting back to my original question, does anyone have any usage experience with innotek virtualbox?
[12:55] <digital_k> is it good?
[12:55] <Endlessguitar> well I guess its it
[12:55] <crdlb> Endlessguitar: nvidia?
[12:55] <Endlessguitar> yeah
[12:55] <n4th4n> feonix: yep, it does it without erroring, but doesn't change anything
[12:55] <Endlessguitar> I got the diver too
[12:55] <eternaljoy> !rkhunter
[12:55] <feonix> Hmm
[12:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rkhunter - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:55] <Endlessguitar> installed it yesterday
[12:56] <crdlb> Endlessguitar: did you use ther restricted manager to do it?
[12:56] <ncd> the fact that gparted is there and seems to work perfectly assuming the underlying is all good
[12:56] <crdlb> the*
[12:56] <ashton> digital_k: I tried an older version of virtualbox. it was fast, but at the time not very stable
[12:56] <kust0m> Desmaano: that's probably going to be hard to track down.
[12:56] <Endlessguitar> hmm
[12:56] <crdlb> system>administration>restricted manager
[12:56] <tom_g> please someone, this is my fav game i cant live without it!
[12:56] <Endlessguitar> no ;P
[12:56] <sp1d3r_> Does anyone know which is the right module of "php for mysql"?
[12:56] <marcosc> crdlb, I told the system to enable it, but how can I confirm that the driver is installed and active?
[12:56] <digital_k> i want to install it just to play around with it, maybe install windows 2000 or something
[12:56] <crdlb> Endlessguitar: that was your mistake
[12:56] <eternaljoy> rkhunter says: eth0: PACKET SNIFFER(/sbin/dhclient3[5483] )  Any ideas?
[12:56] <Endlessguitar> okej
[12:56] <Endlessguitar> :S
[12:56] <feonix> n4th4n, iwconfig ath0 freq can set the frequency
[12:56] <Endlessguitar> will I restall linux?
[12:56] <crdlb> marcosc: run: fglrxinfo
[12:56] <Endlessguitar> ok
[12:56] <crdlb> Endlessguitar: it's easy to fix
[12:56] <Endlessguitar> okej
[12:56] <Seveas> eternaljoy, that's a false positive
[12:57] <marcosc> crdlb, you rock!
[12:57] <crdlb> Endlessguitar: sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals -d 24
[12:57] <Desmaano> kust0m: it are some .iso and .rar files, strange it rejects my files i think
[12:57] <Endlessguitar> ok
[12:57] <crdlb> Endlessguitar: then restart X
[12:57] <ncd> thats also a great way to learn the ropes with regard to fs-tool manipulation
[12:57] <eternaljoy> Seveas: ok, pheew
[12:57] <n4th4n> feonix: i know - it doesn't. it's as if it's being ignored. i thought possibly some unknown app is scanning
[12:57] <Desmaano> is it because of incompatibility between NTFS and ext3?
[12:57] <ashton> digital_k: so long as they have fixed the one or two problems I had, which is likely, installing and running win2000 should be a breeze
[12:57] <Endlessguitar> what you mean with restart x server?
[12:57] <digital_k> what problems did you encounter ashton?
[12:57] <ashton> digital_k: random crashes :)
[12:58] <digital_k> lol
[12:58] <crdlb> Endlessguitar: log out and press ctrl+alt+bksp from the login screen
[12:58] <eternaljoy> Seveas: i use Opera a lot to browse many different websites.  Can websites install any virus,rootkit,spyware etc on my feisty?
[12:58] <Endlessguitar> ok
[12:58] <Endlessguitar> brb
[12:58] <LasoL_> hi
[12:58] <digital_k> eternaljoy, as was said, it may be possible, but i will say no.
[12:58] <crdlb> eternaljoy: there are no known examples of that in the wild
[12:58] <kust0m> eternaljoy: that's been answered. can they, yes. but it's not likely.
[12:58] <LasoL_> someone has a vaio fe? i am trying use the fn keys but dont work
[12:58] <eternaljoy> crdlb: ok ty
[12:59] <ashton> digital_k: i'm using vmware player for all my vm needs at the moment, but I'm about to install ubuntu into a virtualbox vm in a few minutes, to find a fix for a problem a friend has
[12:59] <Dj-skovsnegl> hallo i need some help with ogle, ive installed it from synaptic and the gui for it, i can open the program but it crashes when i load a dvd disk. i seem to remeber ive used it fine before why isent it working?
[12:59] <eternaljoy> kust0m: I know, but I wanted to ask Seveas too for his opinion.  thanks
[12:59] <digital_k> vmware player will only run a preconfigured virtual machine tho right?
[01:00] <Desmaano> !crc
[01:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about crc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:00] <ncd> eternaljoy, if you run it as root i would say there is a small chance.. but as ever the browser will ask you if you want to inflict serious injuries via a extention or in m$ spiel "addins"
[01:00] <ncd> its up to you if you say yes
[01:00] <eternaljoy> ncd: I run it from the menu
[01:01] <catulluspoeta> how do i make bash my default shell?
[01:01] <ncd> you havnt got much to worry about as a normal user
[01:01] <Dj-skovsnegl> anyone have expirience with ogle?
[01:01] <digital_k> is ogle a player or ripper?
[01:01] <marcosc> crdlb, it was not installed... when I try to install it tells me I need to be root. When I try to "su", it rejects my password? might have bigger problems than I thought?
[01:02] <sp1d3r_> quit
[01:02] <JJ|Laptop> marcosc: check capslock and case
[01:02] <Dj-skovsnegl> player
[01:02] <zcat[1] > eternaljoy: basically there is no reason you'd ever run the browser as root. And there are no remove-code exploits I know of..  It doesn't happen.
[01:02] <marcosc> JJ|Laptop, checked
[01:02] <digital_k> yes, could be the caps is engaged
[01:02] <digital_k> passwords are case sensitive
[01:02] <crdlb> marcosc: running what?
[01:02] <crdlb> fglrxinfo?
[01:02] <JJ|Laptop> might also wanna try to logout and then directly into root
[01:02] <eternaljoy> zcat[1] : ok cheers
[01:03] <crdlb> marcosc: you need to use the restricted manager to install the driver
[01:03] <ashton> digital_k: yep, sort of. you can use qemu-img to create empty images, and various web apps will let you generate vmware image config files, and you can get vmware tools from vmware server for the os you use, if needed
[01:03] <marcosc> crdlb, fglrxinfo told me that the driver was not installed
[01:03] <SoulChild> Hey Guys, can i copy the content of my "/boot"-Partition to the root dir and then format the Boot-artition without getting Problems on boot ?
[01:03] <ashton> digital_k: but virtualbox on the whole is easier
[01:03] <crdlb> marcosc: use the restricted manager to install it
[01:03] <zcat[1] > eternaljoy: however you will still run into annoying popup ads. I use firefox and adblock+ to deal with those...
[01:03] <ncd> with Grsecurity stack protection or something like it I think i would say no chance.. but the only problem with that is its so secure legit things can stop working with it
[01:03] <digital_k> i dabbled with vmware server on windows when a certain os from a fruit company became available for x86 ;)
[01:04] <marcosc> crdlb, how do I launch the restricted manager?
[01:04] <crdlb> marcosc: are you on ubuntu feisty?
[01:04] <Dj-skovsnegl> can anyone fix my crash problem? whats wrong?
[01:04] <marcosc> crdlb, sorry, just found it!
[01:04] <stefg> SoulChild: you've got to adapt /etc/fstab accordingly (delete the /boot entry so that no separate partition is assumed)
[01:04] <digital_k> Dj have you tried uninstalling it?
[01:04] <sambiase> hi..does anyone here run ubuntu as guest in vmware?
[01:04] <digital_k> and reinstall
[01:04] <SoulChild> stefg ok thanks
[01:05] <rob_p> Desmaano: How are your PCs connected?  Wireless or wired?
[01:05] <zcat[1] > Just for the record I regularly visit some of the most malware prone sites on the web, places like serials.ws and I've never had a problem...
[01:05] <eternaljoy> zcat[1] : good idea
[01:05] <sambiase> i need to install... gcc, binutils, make, kernel sources....how do i do that in ubuntu?
[01:05] <teaster> sambiase: sudo apt-get install binutils
[01:05] <zcat[1] > .. those sites will basically kill a windows box dead if you even take a peen using MSIE..
[01:06] <marcosc> crdlb, when I check the box for ATI accelerated drivers it asks me to confirm but then just unchecks the box :(
[01:06] <zcat[1] > *peek
[01:06] <sambiase> thanks
[01:06] <digital_k> lol zcat
[01:06] <digital_k> and any site that ends in .ru pretty much
[01:06] <Endlessguitar> crdlb
[01:06] <digital_k> ;)
[01:06] <Endlessguitar> look at this picture
[01:06] <crdlb> marcosc: then do it manually

[01:06] <Endlessguitar> crdlb
[01:06] <Endlessguitar> look :P
[01:06] <zcat[1] > not sure about .ru sites, but serials.ws is where I send windows users when they tell me they've never had a problem with spyware..
[01:06] <Endlessguitar> I send you one file
[01:06] <skylight> ANYONE KNOW IF PIXER RENDER MAN RUNS IN LUNUX
[01:07] <crdlb> Endlessguitar: imageshack.us
[01:07] <skylight> NEONE
[01:07] <skylight> oops
[01:07] <zcat[1] > even firefox in windows isn't totally safe there
[01:07] <digital_k> i was owned on a russian serial site once, i stupidly went there with IE, av loaded with firewall. i was owned in seconds.
[01:07] <sambiase> i got the error Couldnt find package binutils
[01:07] <digital_k> seconds!
[01:07] <Chilling_Silence> Im getting an error with Feisty, in Gaim, on multiple workstations (i386 laptop & amd64 Desktop): Message could not be sent because the user is offline. Only thing is I know the users are all online...
[01:07] <Chilling_Silence> Only seems to happen for Msn
[01:07] <digital_k> it probably would be with the noscript extension , zcat
[01:08] <digital_k> thats a handy extension
[01:08] <abaddon> can you guys help me with compiling?
[01:08] <sambiase> what is the package name for the kernel sources?
[01:08] <crdlb> abaddon: compiling what?
[01:08] <sladen> sambiase: linux-source
[01:08] <sambiase> thanks
[01:08] <abaddon> im trying to install lineage 2
[01:08] <rob_p> Desmaano: ?
[01:08] <zcat[1] > perhaps.. they do some truly evil stuff though... There's probably a flash exploit or two on it.
[01:08] <abaddon> and the instructions say compile as you always do, which doesnt help me in the least
[01:08] <sambiase> and bintuils?
[01:09] <sladen> skylight: yes, Renderman runs on Linux (big time)
[01:09] <Dj-skovsnegl> no i havent digital
[01:09] <digital_k> noscript will block anything from happening unless you allow the site, i use it  even in Ubuntu
[01:09] <sladen> skylight: all the hollywood studios use the setup
[01:09] <Dj-skovsnegl> ill try
[01:09] <Chilling_Silence> Anybody with ideas on MSN errors in Gaim?
[01:09] <stefg> I'm having trouble configuring my fonts. If i set autohinting on (by having a .font.config in my ~ ) the desktop looks nice and the DejaVu sans condensed is actually condendensed :-) .. But the rendered pages in Firefox look horribly (not the UI, the content). without autohinting FFs rendering is alright, but the desktop looks crap :-( any deskmodder knows a solution to this?
[01:09] <zcat[1] > I probably should too, I've had the odd site crash firefox with idiotic scripting
[01:09] <crdlb> abaddon: you're trying to run it in wine right?
[01:09] <sladen> Chilling_Silence: try the main upstream GAIM website, they may have a FAQ, as sometimes MS change the protocol
[01:09] <abaddon> yes
[01:10] <crdlb> abaddon: then what compiling are you talking about?
[01:10] <crdlb> compiling wine?
[01:10] <Chilling_Silence> sladen: no problems prior to Ubuntu, was running Gaim2.0Beta6 this morning in XP fine
[01:10] <sacater> hello! need a bit of help, my new(2nd hand old) laptop has pcmia support, when I put a pcmia card in, nothing happens, how do I mount, Xubuntu 7.04
[01:10] <Endlessguitar> http://img522.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotdy2.png
[01:10] <abaddon> here ill post the link

[01:10] <zcat[1] > allblacks: how's the tv card going?
[01:10] <allblacks> hi still problems with TV tuner i have looked in the device database
[01:10] <abaddon> http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=5069
[01:11] <Desmaano> rob_p: sorry im back now :P
[01:11] <rob_p> Desmaano: Ok.
[01:11] <Desmaano> rob_p: wireless, does it make any difference?
[01:11] <pawitp> Anyone know a reason why 64bit apps keep crashing?
[01:11] <allblacks> and it says at the cipset is BT 878 brooktree corp vendor
[01:11] <crdlb> Endlessguitar: #ubuntu-effects
[01:11] <Chilling_Silence> pawitp: what kinda 64-bit apps? they're fine here
[01:11] <rob_p> Desmaano: Yes.  Mainly because a crapy wireless connection can cause that sort of trouble.
[01:11] <zcat[1] > allblacks: probably have to pass CARD=?? in the module config.. I could takea look at mine, I have two bt878 cards here.
[01:11] <Endlessguitar> aha will I join?
[01:11] <Chilling_Silence> allblacks: thats fine, its supported :)
[01:12] <Desmaano> rob_p: so if i copy my files with a cable it might work ?
[01:12] <pawitp> Chilling_Silence: Alot, including konqueror
[01:12] <sladen> Chilling_Silence: when MS change the protocol, it affects everyone, regardlessly
[01:12] <pawitp> and X seems to be acting funny as well
[01:12] <driverz> Hi room... Someone kindly gave me a link the other day (which I've misplaced)  to a page that explained the changes between dev & UUID ayone know where that explanation can be found
[01:12] <allblacks> it is scanning but nothing if somebody from here lives in Romania and had the same problem like me
[01:12] <rob_p> Desmaano: Cyclic Redundancy Check (crc) errors often happen on intermittant networks where packets get lost, etc.
[01:12] <Dj-skovsnegl> still crashes
[01:12] <Chilling_Silence> sladen: I just re-signed in on another 3rd PC, using the same Gaim version, its fine
[01:12] <Endlessguitar> hmm
[01:12] <Chilling_Silence> sladen: Its not Microsoft, its something specific...
[01:12] <sladen> Chilling_Silence: can you reproduce the error on the first PC?
[01:12] <rob_p> Desmaano: I'd be willing to bet it would.
[01:13] <sladen> Chilling_Silence: if you can reproduce it, you should file a bug report
[01:13] <Desmaano> rob_p: ok that would be awesome, I'll try this afternoon, thanks :)
[01:13] <Chilling_Silence> pawitp: when did it start?
[01:13] <pawitp> Chiling_Silence: KDE crashes and the wallpaper goes on an off
[01:13] <rob_p> Desmaano: ...but I've lost a few bets in my day too!  :-)
[01:13] <crdlb> abaddon: it's possible it will work with normal wine
[01:13] <crdlb> so you don't need to compile your own version of wine
[01:13] <Chilling_Silence> pawitp: you're not trying kde4 are you?
[01:13] <pawitp> Chlling_Silence: It's stable KDE and I just installed it today
[01:14] <pawitp> KDE 3.5.6
[01:14] <abaddon> ok so simply try it and see if it works
[01:14] <zcat[1] > allblacks: there should be a CARDLIST file somewhere, findthe exact card you have and pass it's number in /etc/modutils/something  (I'd have to look it up)
[01:14] <Chilling_Silence> pawitp: run it from a konsole and see if it gives you any info as it crashes
[01:15] <premier_> hello, I'm trying to play a media file with strange, ultra new windows codecs called h264... how do I install them?
[01:15] <Chilling_Silence> premier_: works in any of the media players
[01:15] <stefg> !ping | stefg
[01:15] <pawitp> Chilling_Silence: I can't reproduce it just right now
[01:15] <rob_p> Desmaano: Perhaps you can improve the performance of your wireless network by adjusting the location(s) of your wireless clients and access point for better signal strength?
[01:15] <MikeReiner> premier_: they work for me in VLC
[01:15] <premier_> Chilling_Silence: not for me
[01:15] <Chilling_Silence> premier_: you'll be prompted to install codecs
[01:15] <ncd> what is the equivlent of winamp?
[01:15] <premier_> nope
[01:15] <Chilling_Silence> premier_: what player? mplayer works? totem (gstreamer) needs plugins downloaded though
[01:15] <allblacks> xmms
[01:15] <crdlb> !audacious
[01:15] <ziroday> ncd: xmms
[01:15] <ubotu> audacious is included in !Feisty. A !repository also exists for !Edgy: see http://audacious-media-player.org/Downloads
[01:15] <ncd> xmms support themes yet?
[01:15] <Chilling_Silence> Audacious, not xmms
[01:16] <crdlb> xmms is dead
[01:16] <ncd> i should of put a little exclude on xmms ;)
[01:16] <crdlb> and has been for a long time
[01:16] <MikeReiner> i need help getting the sound to work in quake3.. it's just not the same without the grunting and gun fire effects :P
[01:16] <premier_> Chilling_Silence: vlc, mplayer, kplayer, kaffine, xine
[01:16] <zaggynl> Anyone knows what's new on the Sennheiser pc151 compared with pc150? except the 0->1 :{
[01:16] <ncd> xmms was ahead of its time though
[01:16] <PowerDemon> hey guys is there much advantage in useing the 64 bit version of ubuntu or should i stick with the 32bit one?
[01:16] <Desmaano> rob_p: it could be improved, but the file has to be transfered only once (or maybe twice when i copy it back) so plugging a cable isnt a big deal
[01:16] <Chilling_Silence> premier_: if you've got mplayer from apt, it'll have support
[01:16] <crdlb> MikeReiner: you need to close all other apps using sound
[01:16] <crdlb> then it will work
[01:16] <Chilling_Silence> premier_: you sure its h.24?
[01:16] <allblacks> can i find somewhere a counter strike for linux to play on?
[01:17] <MikeReiner> crblb: nope. tried that long ago
[01:17] <crdlb> PowerDemon: it's not worth it
[01:17] <ncd> while shite amp was chewing up cpu's world wide ... xmms's devs were fast asleep dreaming about their next projects
[01:17] <Chilling_Silence> PowerDemon: Speed in x64 is nice :)
[01:17] <flapster> allblacks, Counter strike runs well through Wine, www.winehq.org or #winehq
[01:17] <MikeReiner> crdlb: doesn't work, i tried that already
[01:17] <ncd> ejoying there 0.00% cpu usage
[01:17] <premier_> Chilling_Silence: apparently its a new version (version 2?)
[01:17] <Chilling_Silence> PowerDemon: Encoding videos seems to be faster for me
[01:17] <sercik> how can i exclude autoupdate of a package?
[01:17] <Chilling_Silence> premier_: whats a new version? version of the codec? mplayer isnt at 2.X....
[01:17] <MikeReiner> flapster: really? cs 1.6 ran terrible for me on wine.. the fps would go from 20-100 randomly.. so sporadic
[01:17] <tawooh> okay, trying to install limewire, i get an error about not being able to find java, but i have the newest java installed... haelp??
[01:17] <zcat[1] > ncd: and I was playing mp3's on my 486 using mpg123 :)
[01:17] <PowerDemon> is it much better than the 32 bit version tho?
[01:17] <premier_> Chilling_Silence: codecs
[01:18] <crdlb> !pinning | sercik
[01:18] <ubotu> sercik: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto
[01:18] <MindOfChaos> 486?
[01:18] <PowerDemon> i have both versions but not sure which one to instal
[01:18] <feonix> allblacks, just put tahoma.tff font file into /home/user/.wine/drive_c/windows/fonts and then run the steaminstaller in wine.. and that's it, can play as normal
[01:18] <MindOfChaos> Wow
[01:18] <zcat[1] > Yeah... 486
[01:18] <MindOfChaos> you can still get those?
[01:18] <crdlb> PowerDemon: use the 32bit version
[01:18] <Chilling_Silence> PowerDemon: it doesnt support flash plugins, only x86 does
[01:18] <MindOfChaos> I have not seen one in years
[01:18] <Endlessguitar> crdlb hmm?
[01:18] <ziroday> tawooh: how are you installing frostwire
[01:18] <cbs> omg I love ubuntu
[01:18] <Chilling_Silence> premier_: nah mate....
[01:18] <sercik> crdlb i need that a particculary will not be automatically updated
[01:18] <Endlessguitar> what do you think  I need 2 do?
[01:18] <allblacks> thanks
[01:18] <MindOfChaos> To the point im pulling 1 GHz computers out of bins
[01:18] <flapster> MikeReiner, I never looked at 1.6 only Source :)
[01:18] <PowerDemon> ah ok, so will that change in future tho?
[01:18] <MindOfChaos> not 486s
[01:18] <teaster> tawood: use frostwire instead its lot better.
[01:18] <crdlb> sercik: read the guide
[01:18] <MikeReiner> flapster: well it's the same thing with source too
[01:18] <Chilling_Silence> premier_: play it from terminal with mplayer, see what it says, /msg me
[01:18] <ncd> heheh zcat
[01:18] <tawooh> running the linux based installer off the limewire website...
[01:18] <sercik> ok
[01:19] <MikeReiner> flapster: it runs just as sporadic
[01:19] <ttjl> hey does anyone know how i get widescreen res?
[01:19] <zcat[1] > back when mp3's first came out and you needed a pentium to run winamp or xmms..
[01:19] <flapster> MikeReiner, Oh  my source runs perfectly, stays around 40 fps
[01:19] <MindOfChaos>  I had a cyrix
[01:19] <MindOfChaos> back then
[01:19] <zcat[1] > and I didn'[t have a pentium back then!
[01:19] <flapster> MikeReiner, Quite crap compared to the 100 in windows but oh well :)
[01:19] <MikeReiner> flapster: ehh.. i can't live with that personally
[01:19] <MindOfChaos> Cyrix 150
[01:19] <MindOfChaos> With 120MHz
[01:19] <MikeReiner> flapster: I only play games on wine that run at full speed
[01:19] <teaster> tawood: sudo apt-get install frostwire <---- More features and only a free version.
[01:19] <allblacks> is there also a notepad on ubuntu or something close to that
[01:19] <premier_> ERROR: Could not open required DirectShow codec wmv9dmod.dll.
[01:19] <premier_> You need to upgrade/install the binary codecs package.
[01:20] <flapster> MikeReiner, I found opensuse to be the best to run CS:S when I had it, around 70fps
[01:20] <zcat[1] > I had a 486DX4-100 :(
[01:20] <nichlas> allblacks: gedit

[01:20] <tondar> !frostwire
[01:20] <ttjl> how do i install i915 resolution
[01:20] <ubotu> frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[01:20] <rob_p> Desmaano: I see.  Well, a wired connection will probably be the ticket for ya then.  Good luck with it.
[01:20] <ziroday> allblacks: *gedit in Apps > Accesories > Text Editor
[01:20] <Chilling_Silence> premier_: you need win32codecs for mplayer or the bad-plugins for gstreamer
[01:20] <zcat[1] > !i915
[01:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about i915 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:20] <MikeReiner> flapster: bah, i wish that game would just get ported to linux
[01:20] <zcat[1] > wtf..
[01:20] <tondar> !limewire
[01:20] <ubotu> limewire is a popular P2P client running on the Gnutella network. To get it running, install !java first, then download Limewire from http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and finally run runLime.sh. Consider !FrostWire as an alternative.

[01:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about i810 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:20] <MikeReiner> flapster: more than likely it will never happen though
[01:20] <zcat[1] > damn bot..

[01:21] <flapster> MikeReiner, Nope, very few companies are willing to spend the money too

[01:21] <arnon> hey guys and gals. I'm looking for help using wlan with a dlink usb dongle (on 7.04)
[01:21] <Tonnerre> 915resolution is practically obsoleted by the intel driver
[01:21] <arnon> anyone up for it?
[01:21] <Endlessguitar> ?
[01:21] <ncd> ubotu i would shame you with my knowelege of intel driver crapness
[01:21] <ncd> ;)
[01:21] <Tonnerre> xserver-xorg-video-intel - X.Org X server -- Intel i8xx, i9xx display driver
[01:21] <ttjl> fine but i cant get widescreen on my vaio and im a moron
[01:21] <crdlb> but the new intel driver is only in universe
[01:21] <Tonnerre> That one doesn't need to get the modes from the VBIOS
[01:21] <crdlb> and has some problems with compiz/beryl
[01:22] <daath> I am pretty rusty in using linux, I just installed feisty ubuntu on my new htpc - remind me how I force a specific graphics mode - i.e. resolution and refresh in linux? I edit xorg.conf and set a "modeline" somewhere?
[01:22] <Tonnerre> crdlb, works well here
[01:22] <Tonnerre> (i945GM)
[01:22] <crdlb> Tonnerre: some problems :)
[01:22] <Endlessguitar> crdlb
[01:22] <crdlb> not for everybody
[01:22] <ttjl> How do i edit xorg.conf?
[01:22] <Endlessguitar> I checked my resoution
[01:22] <MindOfChaos> daath stuff if I know
[01:22] <Endlessguitar> Its just 50 hz
[01:22] <Endlessguitar> in windows when  I look is it 60 hz
[01:22] <Endlessguitar> how do I exchange it?
[01:22] <zcat[1] > 50Hz? Owwww...
[01:22] <crdlb> Endlessguitar: that's nvidia being stupid
[01:22] <crdlb> it's an lcd right?
[01:22] <Endlessguitar> okej
[01:23] <Endlessguitar> lcd widescreen 17 "
[01:23] <zcat[1] > ahh, that's ok then..
[01:23] <MindOfChaos> ttjl /etc/X11
[01:23] <rob_p> ttjl: What Vaio model?
[01:23] <Endlessguitar> hmm
[01:23] <MindOfChaos> sudo gedit xorg.conf
[01:23] <ttjl> umm pcg 791m
[01:23] <daath> In the "Monitor" section in xorg.conf it says "DPMS" - do I just put the modelines there?
[01:24] <Chilling_Silence> premier_: that work?
[01:24] <Endlessguitar> mindofchaos
[01:24] <Endlessguitar> hmm
[01:24] <Endlessguitar> its one empy
[01:24] <crdlb> !gksu
[01:24] <Endlessguitar> window
[01:24] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>
[01:24] <Endlessguitar> what need I to do?
[01:25] <ttjl> so XORG.CONF is empty? whats to edit?
[01:25] <ncd> I was reading last night that DirectX 8 implemented some vertex shading via software and the api was crufted to beable switch .. some guy was like well why cant we do it with pixel shader.. and the response he got was well damning you would need at a absolute minimum a TOP speed dual core processor and some super fast bus's .. then its perfectly possible :D .. the loading as he explained it is quite exponential
[01:25] <MindOfChaos> no caps
[01:25] <daath> wow this interlaced graphics mode sucks when you move windows around :|
[01:25] <MindOfChaos> No caps lock ttjl
[01:25] <MindOfChaos> remeber its case sensitive
[01:25] <nichlas> ttjl: no caps, there's a difference between XORG.CONF and xorg.conf
[01:26] <Endlessguitar> crdlb?
[01:26] <ttjl> oh sorry i didnt use caps in the terminal
[01:26] <Endlessguitar> I restall linux??
[01:26] <Endlessguitar> and then
[01:26] <crdlb> what would that do?
[01:26] <Endlessguitar> can you help me to isntall my graphic drivers?
[01:26] <tondar> how much do you guys consider frostwire??
[01:26] <Endlessguitar> then
[01:26] <crdlb> they're already installed
[01:26] <Endlessguitar> but its fucked up :S?

[01:28] <Endlessguitar> :S
[01:28] <flapster> feonix, Yeah, One of
[01:28] <ivx> joe7d6 would any 8xxx be supported?
[01:28] <crdlb> Endlessguitar: are you going to do it?
[01:28] <Endlessguitar> what? :S
[01:28] <MindOfChaos> 7600GS nvidia cards are nice
[01:29] <ttjl> zcat[1]  it is /home/tom
[01:29] <flapster> MikeReiner, If you get stuck ask Enverex inside #winehq , he knows a damn lot!

[01:29] <soundray> marais: have you got a backup of the data on it?
[01:29] <crdlb> ivx: only the 8800 by feisty's driver
[01:29] <crdlb> if that's what you're asking
[01:29] <Endlessguitar> whats that?
[01:29] <Endlessguitar> aha
[01:29] <Endlessguitar> okej
[01:29] <flapster> MikeReiner, Want a link to the appdb page?
[01:29] <marais> no soundray :( it's too big
[01:29] <MikeReiner> flapster: sure
[01:29] <flapster> MikeReiner, One mo
[01:30] <ncd> sending millions of istructions to the cpu which should of ended up at the gpu in real time isnt going to work out too well for the singal core coyote
[01:30] <Endlessguitar> what for syntax will I take?
[01:30] <marais> I think it's a question of format of the unit
[01:30] <crdlb> Endlessguitar: doesn't matter
[01:30] <Endlessguitar> ok
[01:30] <ivx> crdlb, 829 buck though :(
[01:30] <crdlb> ivx: get a 7xxx
[01:30] <MindOfChaos> Intel Core 2 Duo
[01:30] <zcat[1] > hmmm .. I need sleep
[01:30] <marais> I think it's a question of format of the unit soundray
[01:30] <MindOfChaos> Kicks ass
[01:30] <iggyboy> hiya... I'm new to ubuntu irc here, quick intro... i'm from malaysia and start to ubuntu since dapper drake LTS:)
[01:31] <flapster> MikeReiner, If you first follow the HOWTO on this http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=1554 to get Steam, then click on the Source link and follow that too
[01:31] <soundray> marais: when a drive suddenly becomes read-only, there are several possible reasons. The worst case is that the filesystem has somehow become inconsistent, in which case your data is in danger.
[01:31] <Endlessguitar> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20631/
[01:31] <MindOfChaos> Hey iggyboy
[01:31] <MindOfChaos> PM me a question
[01:31] <ivx> crdlb, would all 7xxx be supported?
[01:31] <Tonnerre> How does one get a list of all available cpufreq governors?
[01:31] <marais> soundray: I think the problem is that it got suddenly unplugged
[01:31] <MikeReiner> flapster: alright, I saved that link. i'll have to do it later.. 5:30 am.. keke see ya
[01:31] <crdlb> ivx: yes, be sure to install nvidia-glx-new though
[01:32] <iggyboy> i got a quick question here... do CLI accept file name with spaces? i think i got problem here with file names that consist of space :(
[01:32] <soundray> marais: what filesystem is on the drive?
[01:32] <crdlb> iggyboy: quote it
[01:32] <ttjl> OK got xorg.conf up now what bit do i change ;)
[01:32] <ivx> crdlb, aight thanks
[01:32] <iggyboy> Hi... :)

[01:33] <Tonnerre> joe7d6, ah, thanks
[01:33] <crdlb> Endlessguitar: looks ok, try a full reboot
[01:33] <marais> thanks a lot soundray :) i'll try anyway
[01:33] <zlx> Is there a way to change the amount of lines the mouse wheel scrolls?
[01:34] <soundray> marais: unmount it first, and have a look at 'man dosfsck' before you go ahead
[01:34] <sacater> hello! need a bit of help, my new(2nd hand old) laptop has pcmia support, when I put a pcmia card in, nothing happens, how do I mount, Xubuntu 7.04
[01:34] <iggyboy> more or less I am a bit familiar with CLI and can do some basic settings using it, but sometime the file names with space get trancated.
[01:34] <hacked_kernel> When compiling a program written in c++ and gtk using glade, i get this err   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20632/plain/  does any one knows what does that mean?
[01:34] <abaddon> how do i configure gdesklets to have an image sitting somewhere on my screen thats not the stupid dirty dancing picture
[01:34] <marais> thanks a lot soundray:) I'll do it like that
[01:34] <iggyboy> is it NOT adviseble to have file name with spaces?
[01:34] <feonix> iggyboy, you can put the whole file name in quotes
[01:34] <obsethryl> is anyone into raid6 / raid60 in here please? thank you very much
[01:34] <soundray> marais: dosfsck is in the dosfstools package (which should be installed already, so I'm saying it just in case).
[01:35] <obsethryl> i am implementing such an array right now and i would like to exchange some information regarding that
[01:35] <crdlb> iggyboy: it's generally better to avoid them, but if you put everything in quotes, you should be ok
[01:35] <iggyboy> ic... quota is the trick :)
[01:35] <feonix> iggyboy, if you don't use quotes it takes each space as a new parameter.. putting it in quotes will make it use it as one
[01:35] <feonix> yep
[01:35] <iggyboy> i got it.

[01:42] <ttjl> please
[01:42] <MenZa> !resolution | ttjl

[01:43] <crdlb> ttjl: what video card?
[01:43] <ttjl> nvidia not sure which
[01:43] <Endlessguitar2> geforce 7600
[01:43] <Mino> Hi I need a little help with my wireless on feisty fawn. I have a broadcom bcm4318, I managed to install the drivers with both ndiswrapper and bcm43xx-fwcutter. iwconfig does show my wireless correct (as far as I know). Yet iwlist eth1 scan does not result in any networks...
[01:43] <feonix> ttjl, do you have the nvidia driver installed?
[01:43] <crdlb> Endlessguitar2: still not working?
[01:43] <Endlessguitar2> no well
[01:43] <Endlessguitar2> I havent done yet
[01:43] <ttjl> yes i have the driver installed I just checked
[01:43] <Endlessguitar2> :S
[01:43] <Endlessguitar2> did you send any link or something?
[01:44] <ncd> hrm
[01:44] <bsm> hey, anyone using vmware server with feisty? my version is unconfigured after every reboot....
[01:44] <crdlb> Endlessguitar2: link for what?
[01:44] <feonix> ttjl, type "sudo nvidia-settings" in console
[01:44] <ttjl> feonix: ok one sec
[01:44] <Endlessguitar2> I sended you the text link
[01:44] <Endlessguitar2> did you done something with this?
[01:44] <feonix> ttjl, then it's the second line down.. XDisplay
[01:44] <ncd> Mino, this laptop has a bcm43xx and I never needed to use ndiswrapper
[01:44] <crdlb> Endlessguitar2: the pastebin?
[01:44] <Endlessguitar2> yeah
[01:44] <AccessExcess> hello, i need the output of 'id' from a regular user account on feisty
[01:44] <Endlessguitar2> I sended you one link to that
[01:44] <Endlessguitar2> #pastebin
[01:44] <crdlb> Endlessguitar2: it was fine, then I told you to reboot
[01:44] <Endlessguitar2> okej..
[01:44] <Endlessguitar2> Aha
[01:44] <Endlessguitar2> oke I be back
[01:44] <Endlessguitar2> brb
[01:45] <AccessExcess> can anyone help please?
[01:45] <Mino> well I understood you needed to install drivers anyway because it was legally not possible to include broadcom drivers in ubuntu
[01:45] <rakeer> omri: did you get my pm?
[01:45] <omri> no
[01:45] <ncd> ah that was under backtrack2..
[01:45] <Mino> but it worked for you right out of the box?
[01:45] <rob_p> ttjl: I thought your graphics adapter was Intel!  Now you are trying to install nvidia drivers for it?
[01:45] <feonix> AccessExcess, just use id
[01:46] <omri> sec, I know what do to
[01:46] <ttjl> HANGS HEAD IN SHAME
[01:46] <soundray> AccessExcess: what are you trying to do?
[01:46] <omri> that's it. you can PM me
[01:46] <feonix> Did it work ttjl?
[01:46] <svu> how would I set two ip addresses (automatically assigned at startup - dhcp and static ones) to one ethernet adapter?
[01:46] <b52> has someone ever build a ralink kernel module?
[01:46] <AccessExcess> feonix: i forgot to use -a with usermod when i added my default user to a new group
[01:46] <ttjl> no
[01:46] <ncd> under backtrackk2 yes.. i turned the thing off but it seemed to be working ok..
[01:46] <feonix> What happened/
[01:46] <LjL> snowblind: if i get what you mean by "virtual folder"... i suppose symlinks are the most obvious route in unix
[01:46] <ncd> but bt2 does not like the fcc/law very much :)
[01:46] <ncd> woot
[01:46] <AccessExcess> now i don't have access to sound, and prolly some other stuff
[01:46] <omri> rakeer, you can PM me now
[01:46] <ttjl> feonix: umm it said error unable to determine number of...
[01:47] <feonix> AccessExcess, dunno.. that is beyond me, sorry :\
[01:47] <AccessExcess> feonix: i just need the output of 'id' so i know to what groups i need to add my user to
[01:47] <rob_p> ttjl: If it is Intel (which I know Vaios commonly use), then you want to look into the 915resolution utility as previously suggested.
[01:47] <ziroday> !register
[01:47] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[01:47] <feonix> AccessExcess, what happens when you try to do id?
[01:48] <AccessExcess> uid=1000(axe) gid=1000(axe) groups=1000(axe),1002(vboxusers)
[01:48] <camh> AccessExcess: groups you'll probably need for a desktop: cdrom floppy audio video plugdev
[01:48] <ttjl> rob_p I think you must be right. How do I use the 915 resolution utility
[01:48] <soundray> AccessExcess: typical supplemental groups are adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev lpadmin scanner admin fuse birgit ixi
[01:48] <Endlessguitar> IT works :D:D:D
[01:48] <jscinoz> Hi everyone, I'm having some major problems with the Nvidia drivers (the ones installed through apt). I had the ones installed from nvidia's site before but  uninstalled them as i wanted to install them through synaptic, however now neither work, both install correctly but i cannot start X, it says "failed to load NVIDIA"
[01:48] <Endlessguitar> thanx crdlb
[01:48] <Endlessguitar> :D
[01:48] <feonix> Oh I see what you're asking for
[01:48] <soundray> AccessExcess: oops, forget about the last two
[01:48] <AccessExcess> soundray: thanks, heh :)
[01:49] <rob_p> ttjl: Well, I understand that it's available in the repos now.  However, back when I installed it, I had to write an init script for it.
[01:49] <Endlessguitar> all beryl
[01:49] <soundray> AccessExcess: I recommend 'adduser username newgroup' instead of usermod -a
[01:49] <LjL> jscinoz: there might be "remains" of the old drivers i suppose, but if that's the case i'm not sure what you should try... for starters though, pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list and let me make sure there aren't any mismatched repositories
[01:49] <ttjl> rob_p: I know this is massively ignorant but what do you mean by available in the repos
[01:50] <LjL> svu: hm? a single interface can't have two addresses...
[01:50] <LjL> svu: or you mean "try DHCP, and if it fails, use static"?
[01:50] <ncd> is that ubuntustudio website working yet?
[01:50] <rob_p> ttjl: That means you can use apt-get, synaptic, etc to install it.
[01:50] <ziroday> can someone tell me how to contact the nickserv in gaim
[01:50] <ttjl> so it would be apt-get 915resolution
[01:50] <soundray> !software > ttjl, ubotu sends you a private message about repositories and adding software from them.
[01:50] <b52> has someone ever build a ralink rt25 kernel module?
[01:51] <rob_p> ttjl: However, it was also mentioned that the latest Intel drivers are now supporting the chipsets that require the vbios hack.
[01:51] <ttjl> soundray: thanks
[01:51] <soundray> b52: you are repeating yourself. What's the issue?
[01:51] <afaana> hei
[01:51] <jscinoz> LjL, alright one sec
[01:51] <b52> soundray http://nopaste.php-q.net/294375
[01:52] <ttjl> rob_p: so what does that mean for me?>
[01:52] <rob_p> ttjl: If you cannot get it from the repos using one of the package managers, I could dig up the one I made for my Vaio.
[01:52] <ttjl> rob_p: im going to try and get it now. just trying to work out how to use the package managers
[01:53] <jscinoz> LjL, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20635/
[01:53] <soundray> b52: hmm, version <IP_ADDRESS> I haven't tried myself. It looks like it depends on a newer kernel.
[01:53] <rob_p> ttjl: Well, I can only give you my experience with the 915resolution utility.  I don't know about the latest Intel drivers.
[01:53] <jobezone> Hi guys, I have a laptop which I have upgraded to Feisty Fawn. After the reboot, it hangs with the infamous "Begin: Waiting for root file system ....". The problem is, the CD-reader of the laptop is broken, plus I can't boot it with a usb, so my only chance now to get to my system is using the busybox shell that it drops into. Any busybox knowledgable people here? Especially how to use it to mount partitions?
[01:53] <ncd> what the fudge
[01:54] <ziroday> can i test pming with someone?
[01:54] <svu> LjL, no. Two IP addresses. It is possible, I know for sure. I just do not know how
[01:54] <svu> using syntax eth0 and eth0:0
[01:54] <ttjl> rob_P: what would i put in terminal to get 915resolution (i really am a moron)
[01:55] <LjL> jscinoz, i strongly suggest that you disable feisty-proposed, it may create problems at best, and break your system at worst. also, automatix is a very good way to break a system.
[01:55] <ttjl> WOW got it on my own
[01:55] <zlx> how can I get rid of the shortcuts to my HDD's from my desktop?
[01:55] <ttjl> I rule
[01:55] <LjL> jscinoz: that aside, though, which kernel are you running? (try uname -r)
[01:55] <jrib> !icons > zlx (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:55] <zlx> thankx :)
[01:55] <MindOfChaos> cool ttjl
[01:56] <MindOfChaos> you fixed your own problem
[01:56] <MindOfChaos> awesome
[01:56] <b52> someone else ever tried to build ralink <IP_ADDRESS> under kernel 2.6.20-15 ?
[01:56] <MindOfChaos> on your way to becoming a linux techie
[01:56] <snowblind> ln -s<EMAIL_ADDRESS>symlinkname - Doesnt work. how do you make a ftp symlink??
[01:56] <soundray> b52: do the stock drivers not work at all?
[01:56] <jscinoz> LjL, 2.6.20-15-386 (suspend2 2.29)
[01:57] <jscinoz> got it from trevino's repo
[01:57] <rob_p> ttjl: apt-get install 915resolution
[01:57] <LjL> jscinoz, i'd try using the -generic kernel. you should be able to keep both installed, anyway
[01:57] <b52> soundray which  stock drivers?
[01:57] <soundray> b52: the ones that come with the ubuntu kernel
[01:57] <LjL> jscinoz: also, what's the output of "apt-cache policy nvidia-glx"? i'm just interested in the Installed and Candidate lines
[01:57] <jscinoz> unfortunately i cant
[01:58] <b52> well my device is listed under iwconfig
[01:58] <jscinoz>   Installed: 1:1.0.9631+<IP_ADDRESS>-15.20
[01:58] <jscinoz>   Candidate: 1:1.0.9631+<IP_ADDRESS>-15.20
[01:58] <jscinoz>   Version table:
[01:58] <jscinoz>  *** 1:1.0.9631+<IP_ADDRESS>-15.20 0
[01:58] <jscinoz>         500 http://archive.ubuntu.com feisty/restricted Packages
[01:58] <jscinoz>         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
[01:58] <b52> but i cant create a connect with wpasupplicant with this device
[01:58] <soundray> b52: I see. Does <IP_ADDRESS> claim WPA support?
[01:58] <rob_p> ttjl: If you cannot get it, I found the package I made a couple of years ago.  You can grab it here:  http://rob.pectol.com/i800_900_resolution.tgz
[01:58] <ttjl> umm maybe not. So I've managed to call up the list of resolutions-what do i do now :)
[01:58] <b52> soundray sure
[01:58] <jscinoz> should i boot up into the generic kernel and see if it works better?
[01:59] <LjL> jscinoz, when i said i was only interested in those lines, i also meant it isn't a good idea to flood the channel...
[01:59] <joe7d6> i'm curious if mac pro runs linux fine...
[01:59] <tawooh> any suggestions for newsreader software/freeware??
[01:59] <LjL> jscinoz: yeah, i think you should try that indeed
[01:59] <jscinoz> sorry ;P
[01:59] <soundray> b52: what's your device ID (from lsusb)?
[01:59] <jrib> tawooh: liferea is in the repositories
[01:59] <jscinoz> alright i'll reboot into generic when i finish printing something
[01:59] <jrib> tawooh: or pan, depending on what kind of news you mean
[01:59] <b52> i thinks its this: Infrastructure and Ad-hoc mode with open or shared or wpapsk or wpa2psk authentication method.
[01:59] <b52> WEP-40 and WEP-104 or tkip or aes encryption.
[01:59] <b52> aeh sorry
[01:59] <b52> this: Bus 003 Device 002: ID 114b:0110
[02:00] <premier_> I'm trynig to read a wmv3 file (video codec) and I can't get it to work.  Does anyone know what I need to install?
[02:00] <SurfnKid> hi guys whats the mount command to mount an .iso ?
[02:00] <jrib> !iso > SurfnKid (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:00] <kust0m> premier_: there's a set of win32 codecs. i think they're part of medibuntu.
[02:00] <jscinoz> mount -o /pathtoiso /mountpoint
[02:00] <jscinoz> i think
[02:00] <jscinoz> sudo that.
[02:00] <omri> no
[02:00] <jrib> premier_: are you on feisty?
[02:00] <premier_> yeah
[02:01] <jscinoz> !iso > jscinoz
[02:01] <rob_p> ttjl: Since I do not know what is contained in the one from the repos, I could only guess.  But I would imagine it puts an init script in your system that will run on boot-up.
[02:01] <omri> mount -o loop -t iso9660 /path/to/iso /path/to/mountpoint
[02:01] <jrib> premier_: hmm, double clicking on it in nautilus doesn't prompt you to install some packages?
[02:01] <premier_> jrib: I'm on kde
[02:02] <premier_> kust0m: how do I install medibuntu?
[02:02] <c1|freaky> is there allready some information about the next release of kubuntu?
[02:02] <rob_p> ttjl: As long as your xorg.conf has a valid resolution mode listed, and the 915resolution utility gets run before gdm loads, it should come up fine.
[02:02] <tawooh> thank you, pan was the one...
[02:02] <SurfnKid> jrib, thx
[02:02] <jrib> !gutsy > c1|freaky (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:02] <Enverex> Can anyone help with an Unreal Tournament 2004 error? When I try and start UT2004 I just get "Assertion failed: sizeof(*this)==GetClass()->GetPropertiesSize() [File:UnGame.cpp]  [Line: 149] "
[02:02] <sysadmin> can someone enlighten me as to why hosts on my eth1 segment can't forward to hosts outside my eth0 net?
[02:03] <jrib> premier_: hmm, what does kde use as the default player?
[02:03] <Enverex> jrib, Probably Kaffiene if nothing else is installed
[02:03] <premier_> jrib: well, theres several, kaffine is the default, theres also vlc, mplayer, kmplayer, etc
[02:03] <wysiwyg> hihi
[02:04] <wysiwyg> how do i move windows without showing its content?
[02:04] <jscinoz> you dont
[02:04] <jscinoz> :P
[02:04] <premier_> wysiwyg: why, are you on a super slow computer?
[02:04] <soundray> b52: there aren't any reports for that device that I can find. Have you checked the serialmonkey project whether they have a WPA-capable driver for your device?
[02:04] <wysiwyg> yeap pr
[02:04] <wysiwyg> premier_, yeap
[02:04] <jscinoz> or maybe he doesn't want onlookers to see his prons >_<
[02:04] <jrib> wysiwyg: you can try /apps/metacity/general/reduced_resources in gconf-editor
[02:04] <b52> serialmonkey?
[02:05] <jrib> premier_: ok, try w32codecs I guess but I thought vlc and mplayer played those now without codecs
[02:05] <wysiwyg> there was an option in 6.10
[02:05] <jrib> !medibuntu > premier_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:05] <soundray> b52: the open-source driver project that Ralink Tech supports
[02:05] <wysiwyg> but i cant find it in feisty
[02:05] <jscinoz> Does anyone know how to change the default media player under Gnome? I've changed the file associations but i want my multimedia keys still control rhytmbox rather than my new media player
[02:06] <jscinoz> !medibuntu > jscinoz
[02:06] <ncd> yeah I wanted to try that
[02:06] <blahblahx> do you guys know linux mint?
[02:06] <ncd> the mediacenter for ubuntu but when i goto the website it doesnt seem to mention 7.04
[02:07] <Mitchman> hi
[02:07] <fluxy> hello
[02:07] <blahblahx> do you guys think linux mint is a real distro or just a remastered ubuntu with codecs?
[02:07] <Mitchman> i need some help with my ubuntu box
[02:07] <larson9999> yay! the hal upgrade fixed my thumbdrive not mounting!
[02:07] <jrib> jscinoz: last time I bothered to look into it, it was hard-coded.  It's easier to just create custom commands and bind your keys to those.  Use /apps/metactiy/keybind_commands to create commands and then bind them in /apps/metacity/global_keybindings in gconf-editor
[02:07] <soundray> blahblahx: please ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:07] <NessieLiberation> hello - metacity doesnt always start up when i load gnome
[02:07] <fluxy> nice, means i should get it myself then ;)
[02:08] <premier_> jrib: how do I install w32codecs?  I can't find a package with apt-cache
[02:08] <jrib> !ask | Mitchman
[02:08] <ubotu> Mitchman: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:08] <NessieLiberation> "doesn't always" = rarely or never
[02:08] <jscinoz> gah.. it works by default in KDE, but i prefer gnome
[02:08] <b52> soundray i dont see a usb version of the serialmonkey drivers
[02:08] <jrib> premier_: you need a repository like medibuntu
[02:08] <soundray> b52: they do support USB, though
[02:08] <premier_> jrib: nevermind
[02:08] <larson9999> when my wife asks me if she can ask a question, i'm in trouble.
[02:08] <soundray> NessieLiberation: any errors in $HOME/.xsession-errors?
[02:08] <Mitchman> i 've got an wifi adapter with adhoc running and a good connection. but the connection
[02:08] <wysiwyg> jrib, didnt worked as i expected, isnt another way? thx =
[02:09] <jrib> wysiwyg: that's the only way I know
[02:09] <wysiwyg> ok thx
[02:09] <premier_> jrib: once I get w32, which players should be able to play?
[02:09] <jrib> premier_: *mplayer at least
[02:10] <premier_> aw, crub... its going to take 16 minutes to download... 14MB at 13kb/s
[02:10] <NessieLiberation> soundray, yeah, seems so
[02:10] <Mitchman> but the connection to the internet doesnt work
[02:10] <NessieLiberation> cant see too many metacity related ones though
[02:10] <Mitchman> and i cant get an adress from the dhcp server which is located in my modem/router
[02:10] <jrib> premier_: but it is strange you can't play them already.  I'm on amd64 which doesn't have w32codecs and can play WMV3 on vlc, mplayer, and totem-gstreamer
[02:11] <NessieLiberation> soundray, make that none, cat $HOME/.xsession-errors | grep -i metacity = blank
[02:11] <Mitchman> i need to create the "bridge" from the wlan0 to the eth0.
[02:11] <Mitchman> can someone help me with that?
[02:11] <premier_> jrib, my computer has been feeling a little sluggish, and a freind told me it was pretty slow for linux, but my cpu is not not being used (5-10%) and I have a very powerful computer... is there anyway I can look to see whats up?
[02:11] <soundray> NessieLiberation: I remember fixing a configuration issue where metacity complained about a key with a "blank" value.
[02:11] <jscinoz> O_o http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Studio why wasn't i told about this...
[02:12] <NessieLiberation> soundray, like:
[02:12] <norbia> hi all
[02:12] <soundray> NessieLiberation: don't paste please
[02:12] <ncd> jeez
[02:12] <ncd> http://gnome-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=2&id=57437&file1=57437-1.png&file2=57437-2.jpg&file3=57437-3.jpg&name=H-K+Suite+-+Emerald+Theme
[02:12] <jrib> NessieLiberation: try renaming ~/.gnome2/session  that seems to randomly fix metacity issues sometimes
[02:12] <ncd> now that looks crazy
[02:12] <NessieLiberation> soundray, i was going to paste the single line
[02:12] <premier_> jrib: you use 64 bit?  whats it like?  I heard you have to jump through some hoops... I want to get a 64bit computer this summer, so I want all the details
[02:12] <norbia> anybody help
[02:12] <premier_> norbia: whats up?
[02:13] <ttjl> Sorry everyone
[02:13] <jscinoz> Does anyone know where i can get the theme used in ubuntustudio
[02:13] <norbia> can u tell me wht s beryl?
[02:13] <soundray> NessieLiberation: go on then, I hope you don't get kicked ;)
[02:13] <premier_> !beryl
[02:13] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[02:13] <ttjl> i was following a tutorial and set up another terminal then didnt know how to exitg
[02:13] <ttjl> :(
[02:13] <NessieLiberation> soundray, nevermind... it's not there
[02:13] <IdleOne> what do I do with a .sh file?
[02:13] <premier_> norbia: basically, cool, but useless, 3d effects for your desktop
[02:13] <NessieLiberation> IdleOne, run it ?
[02:13] <Mitchman> i need help to
[02:13] <IdleOne> NessieLiberation, how?
[02:13] <norbia> ok
[02:13] <NessieLiberation> jrib, rename that to what?
[02:13] <NessieLiberation> IdleOne, .sh is a shell script
[02:13] <norbia> wht all things it need?
[02:14] <premier_> norbia: what kind of video card do you have
[02:14] <NessieLiberation> IdleOne, meaning it runs itself in a terminal, if you trust it, you can run it with, for example, bash
[02:14] <norbia> ati
[02:14] <norbia> a re done
[02:14] <premier_> norbia: which model?
[02:14] <premier_> radeon?
[02:14] <norbia> i think so
[02:15] <rob_p> ttjl: So, where are you at in your quest for proper resolution?  I'm assuming you installed 915resolution from the repos, correct?
[02:15] <norbia> it doesnt support DX9
[02:15] <soundray> NessieLiberation: I remembered. In gconf-editor, look at /apps/metacity/window_keybindings and ensure that toggle_shaded is set to disabled (rather than an empty string).
[02:15] <jrib> premier_: it takes a few extra steps to do some things.  It's not really worth it though if you just use your computer as a desktop machine.  wine has a repository now so that's easy.  flash, you need to setup nspluginwrapper which is not packaged.  And the only thing that is a pain is the java plugin.  But I ended up just using blackdown's java plugin and that's been working fine.  Anything that's open source shouldn't be a big deal on 64bit, it's usually c
[02:15] <premier_> norbia: you might be sol... some of the newer radeon cards are only compatible with a mediocre grahpics driver called fglrx... you have to jump through some hoops to get it working and they arent as good
[02:15] <luca> hi everyone
[02:15] <ttjl> rob_p: yes I did, I'm using a tutorial at: http://users.skynet.be/thomasvst/linux-on-laptop/#wide
[02:15] <NessieLiberation> soundray, i'll have a look, thanks
[02:15] <soundray> IdleOne: what's that .sh file you have?
[02:15] <luca> does someone here use amsn? 'cause it's gettig me nuts, it won't function because it does not have tcl
[02:16] <norbia> i m not sure of radeon
[02:16] <ttjl> unfortunately I didnt know how to get out of the terminal i opened
[02:16] <jrib> NessieLiberation: mv ~/.gnome2/session{,.backup}
[02:16] <IdleOne> soundray, new version of Boinc
[02:16] <norbia> i told u a red one
[02:16] <rob_p> ttjl: Going there to check it out...
[02:16] <Mitchman> luca: try mercury or kopete
[02:16] <Otacon22>  is ekiga compatible with usb voip phones?
[02:16] <norbia> premier?
[02:16] <Mitchman> amsn is quite slow building the userslist
[02:16] <luca> Mitchman: the point is that it functioned before today
[02:16] <norbia> arr u there
[02:16] <NessieLiberation> soundray, i set toggle shading to alt+f11 deliberately
[02:16] <premier_> jrib: is it worth it to buy an amd64 and run a 32 bit OS on it, maybe dual boot a 64 bit?
[02:16] <premier_> norbia:
[02:16] <premier_> yeas?
[02:17] <luca> now, all of a sudden, bum! does not function any more
[02:17] <norbia> tell me wht all libraries it needs?
[02:17] <premier_> norbia: can you type into a terminal "lspci | grep ati"
[02:17] <Mitchman> i don't know amsn, don't like it
[02:17] <soundray> NessieLiberation: that's fine then, it just mustn't be empty. That wasn't your problem, then.
[02:17] <shuan> anyone have any problems with ubuntu
[02:17] <NessieLiberation> soundray, i do have plenty of <no value>s though
[02:17] <norbia> i mean wht all things beryl needs
[02:18] <Mitchman> i need some help, please
[02:18] <premier_> norbia: you have feisty?
[02:18] <norbia> and unfortunately i m no in linb
[02:18] <norbia> knoppix 5.1.1
[02:18] <Mitchman> i 've got an wifi adapter with adhoc running and a good connection
[02:18] <Mitchman> but the connection to the internet doesnt work
[02:18] <Mitchman> and i cant get an adress from the dhcp server which is located in my modem/router
[02:18] <jrib> premier_: well all the processors are 64-bit now aren't they?
[02:18] <soundray> NessieLiberation: well, maybe it would help to set those. Or go with jrib's suggestion (do it in a failsafe session, though).
[02:18] <rob_p> ttjl: Ok, so have you successfully followed the steps on the tutorial?
[02:19] <shuan> hi
[02:19] <premier_> norbia: oh... funny you are in the ubuntu forums, but anyway, I think I can still help... can you type "glxinfo | grep direct" into a terminal?
[02:19] <jrib> !enter > Mitchman (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:19] <premier_> norbia: it should then say, "direct rendering: Yes"
[02:19] <ttjl> rob_p: no I launched the terminal but imagined it would open in a small window, so I couldnt see the instructions and didnt know how to kill the terminal and return to my normal view
[02:19] <norbia> i told u i m not in linux now
[02:19] <norbia> i m using another OS
[02:20] <norbia> then?
[02:20] <soundray> NessieLiberation: no_values don't seem to cause a problem here. Only empty strings do.
[02:20] <shuan> i'm have problems when i click on the menu and highlight an option, sometimes it doesnt high light
[02:20] <premier_> norbia: windows?  well, I think you need to do this in linux
[02:20] <jscinoz> Does anyone know where i can get the theme used in ubuntustudio?
[02:20] <NessieLiberation> soundray, jrib, thanks i'll have a play later
[02:20] <pawitp> 64Bit konqueror crash: KCrash: Application 'konqueror' crashing...
[02:20] <shuan> i'm have problems when i click on the menu and highlight an option, sometimes it doesnt high light
[02:21] <rob_p> ttjl: How did you launch the terminal?  Because windows can be (re)sized so as to view both...
[02:21] <mrstuxit> test
[02:21] <NNForcer> how the hell do u use compiz
[02:21] <premier_> norbia: if it says, direct redndering: yes, then you should be able to just "sudo apt-get install beryl" and then log out and log back in... (i think... I actually am not the best person to ask here)
[02:21] <ttjl> rob_p: ctrl alt f1
[02:21] <jrib> !compiz > NNForcer (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:21] <soundray> !language | NNForcer
[02:21] <rob_p> ttjl: ...unless you actually went to one of the ttys (ctrl-alt-F1-F5)
[02:21] <ubotu> NNForcer: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:21] <ttjl> rob_p: thanks for all the help by the way
[02:22] <rob_p> ttjl: Oh.  That explains it!
[02:22] <b52> soundray http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/wiki/index.php?title=Downloads i dont see there a rt2500 usb?
[02:22] <ttjl> lol
[02:22] <NNForcer> lol ok
[02:22] <ttjl> rob_p: so how else would i launch it
[02:22] <premier_> jrib: well, I want to get an AMD processor... intel processors aren't 64 bit (mostly) yet
[02:22] <rob_p> ttjl: You can get back to your graphical environment by doing ctrl-alt-F7 afterwards.
[02:22] <premier_> jrib: but I really want my 64 bit OS to go with my 64 bit PC
[02:22] <NessieLiberation> premier_, i thought all barring celeron were 64bit now?
[02:22] <NessieLiberation> isnt pentium D ?
[02:22] <soundray> b52: rt2570 is the one you want (unless you have one of the later rt73 devices)
[02:23] <b52> soundray i dont realy know
[02:23] <ttjl> rob_p: ok going to try now
[02:23] <b52> how can i check it?
[02:23] <premier_> NessieLiberation: I don't think the stock intels that ship with desktops are 64 bit *yet* although some can be, if you ask for it
[02:23] <premier_> NessieLiberation: besides, as I understand intel64 just isn't as good
[02:24] <jrib> premier_: well your idea of having two partitions, one with 32bit and one with 64bit would be a nice way for you to evaluate it
[02:24] <B4c> portscanning me?
[02:24] <bagrupe> all core 2s and newer pentium 4/d have 64bit
[02:24] <B4c> i m norbia
[02:24] <NessieLiberation> premier_, intel64 is the same architecture of amd64
[02:24] <soundray> b52: judging by your USB ID, rt2570 is the right one.
[02:24] <norbia_> premier
[02:25] <rob_p> ttjl: Might I suggest just grabbing my version and running the installer script that is included with it?  It would make your life much easier, I think.
[02:25] <norbia_> are u there?
[02:25] <premier_> jrib: I'm thinking I'll have vista/XP, kubuntu and debian... not sure which will be 64 and which 32...
[02:25] <premier_> norbia_: hi
[02:25] <norbia_> u did that fuck?
[02:25] <NessieLiberation> !ohmy
[02:25] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:25] <premier_> norbia: ?
[02:25] <premier_> !ohmy?
[02:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ohmy? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:26] <ttjl> rob_p ok will try
[02:26] <norbia_> somebody portscanned me
[02:26] <premier_> norbia_: whats up?
[02:26] <norbia_>  and i lost conxn
[02:26] <rob_p> ttjl: once you have it downloaded, tell me and I will walk you through it.
[02:26] <premier_> norbia_: whats portscanning?
[02:26] <norbia_> come on
[02:27] <ttjl> rob_p: could you post the link again
[02:27] <NessieLiberation> premier_, brute forcing all ports to see if they're open
[02:27] <norbia_> there s a shitstorm of portscans
[02:27] <premier_> !portscanning
[02:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about portscanning - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[02:27] <premier_> !ohmy > norbia
[02:27] <norbia_> if u r tht much interested in scanning my port, u can do tht
[02:27] <rob_p> ttjl: http://rob.pectol.com/i800_900_resolution.tgz
[02:27] <soundray> norbia_: portscans happen all the time. Doesn't justify swearing on the channel. In fact, it's offtopic here.
[02:27] <Memories> hello everyone
[02:27] <arro> I'm trying to connect my computer to the internet, and when i type lshw I get 2 things that say network, one has a driver loaded and one says latency=0 do I need to find a driver for the second one?
[02:27] <Memories> my cable guy just installed a new connection
[02:27] <Memories> am using EDGY
[02:27] <b52> soundray, make and install worked fine, but i dont see it on my iwconfig
[02:28] <norbia_> but don't restart me and my conxn
[02:28] <norbia_> ok?
[02:28] <Memories> its a point to point connection
[02:28] <ttjl> rob_p: got it where should i extract to?
[02:28] <b52> only the one which doesnt work
[02:28] <Memories> and i cant seem to figure out how to configure FIRESTARTER firewall
[02:28] <soundray> b52: have you removed the old driver with rmmod?
[02:28] <b52> no
[02:28] <rob_p> ttjl: open a graphical terminal
[02:29] <soundray> b52: installing is not enough.
[02:29] <ttjl> rob_p: graphical terminal? : /
[02:29] <rob_p> ttjl: Applications --> Accessories --> Terminal
[02:29] <up365> !joystick
[02:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about joystick - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:29] <ttjl> ok
[02:29] <Memories> which should i choose for the firewall to monitor! the ppp0 or the eth1 ?
[02:29] <ttjl> yup
[02:29] <b52> which driver i have to remove?
[02:29] <IdleOne> soundray, who do I talk to about packaging the latest version of boinc for ubuntu?
[02:29] <IdleOne> soundray, requesting rather
[02:30] <soundray> !motu | IdleOne
[02:30] <ubotu> IdleOne: motu is short for Masters of the Universe. The brave souls who maintain the packages in the Universe section of Ubuntu. See  http://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU
[02:30] <premier_> wow, fullmetal alchemist looks fantastic with wmv3 compression, and at only 200MB/30minutes... thanks guys!
[02:30] <NessieLiberation> Memories, eth1 is likely to be an ethernet RJ45 connection
[02:30] <soundray> IdleOne: or file a wishlist bug on launchpad
[02:30] <rob_p> ttjl: Ok, change to the directory that contains the tgz archive you just downloaded.
[02:30] <b52> soundray when i do lsmod | grep rt there is only listed the one i installed
[02:30] <soundray> b52: what's the name of the module?
[02:30] <b52> rt2570
[02:30] <Memories> nessieliberation, well my cable is plugged into the ethernet card.. though wht im askign is which one should i choose for the firewall to monitor!
[02:30] <IdleOne> soundray, thank you
[02:31] <Memories> nessieliberation , should it b the ppp0 or eth1 !
[02:31] <rob_p> ttjl: If you downloaded it to your desktop, do something along the lines of, "cd ~/Desktop"
[02:31] <NessieLiberation> Memories, load a system monitor, and see which one moves
[02:31] <NessieLiberation> chances are it might be both
[02:31] <b52> soundray http://nopaste.info/2755d6a311.html
[02:31] <ttjl> rob_p: yup
[02:31] <NNForcer> compiz wont install cuz theres loads of requirements
[02:31] <soundray> b52: what do you get from a "modinfo rt2570 | grep description"
[02:32] <Memories> nessieliberation , yup its loadded allready and ur right! both of them are moving
[02:32] <NNForcer> dependencys
[02:32] <b52> soundray rausb1 was already there before i installed the new driver
[02:32] <NNForcer> can i just download them all at once
[02:32] <b52> soundray modinfo rt2570 | grep description
[02:32] <NessieLiberation> Memories, then a guess would suggest that both would be the safest option
[02:32] <soundray> b52: that kind of proves that you're using the old driver still
[02:32] <NessieLiberation> although just ppp0 might work
[02:32] <drevil> lz
[02:32] <b52> soundray description:    Ralink RT2570 usb 802.11g WLAN driver 1.0.0 - BETA2 2006/06/18
[02:32] <Memories> nessieliberation i ran the wizard and it only lets me choose one!
[02:32] <XMR2F77> is there a player in gnome the can handle DVB-T  PCI cards
[02:32] <rob_p> ttjl: ok.  Now do, "tar -zxvf ./i800_900_resolution.tgz"
[02:32] <Airforce5555> has the feisty problems been fixed yet? is it safe to upgrade?
[02:32] <soundray> b52: that's ancient.
[02:33] <aidan> If I wiped my MBR by installing windows (sorry... I just had to, I tried so hard to be pure :/) how do I rewrite grub to it so I can dual boot?
[02:33] <NessieLiberation> Memories, try ppp0 and then see if it works
[02:33] <Airforce5555> has the feisty problems been fixed yet? is it safe to upgrade?
[02:33] <soundray> !repeat | Airforce5555
[02:33] <ubotu> Airforce5555: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[02:33] <larson9999> i'm not good enough to handle all those wizbang wobbly windows and four sides.  heck, i can't find stuff on the one desktop i use now.
[02:33] <arro> I'm trying to connect my computer to the internet, and when i type lshw I get 2 things that say network, one has a driver loaded and one says latency=0 do I need to find a driver for the second one?
[02:33] <tuskernini> Airforce5555: i had feisty form the launch... was fixed then
[02:33] <b52> soundray $ modprobe -r rt2570
[02:33] <b52> FATAL: Module rt2570 is in use.
[02:34] <Airforce5555> k
[02:34] <b52> how can i unload it?
[02:34] <ttjl> rob_p: ok so it listed a bunch of ./1800_900 resolution
[02:34] <Memories> nessieliberation , thts wht i did! the firewall is active now monitoring ppp0 though in "network" both ethernet and ppp0 has activity
[02:34] <rob_p> ttjl: Now enter the new i800_900_resolution directory (cd ./i800_900_resolution)
[02:34] <NessieLiberation> Memories, so check to see if your connection is firewalled
[02:34] <thezenmaster> Hi!
[02:34] <rob_p> ttjl: You will see an install file called, "install.sh" in it.
[02:34] <soundray> b52: you probably have to 'sudo invoke-rc.d networking stop' before you can remove it. You may also have to stop NetworkManager
[02:34] <Memories> nessieliberation , am obviously a newbie with linux could u show me how tht is done!
[02:34] <ttjl> rob_p: yuop[
[02:35] <kust0m> b52: rmmod also unloads modules i think
[02:35] <ttjl> rob_p: or maybe
[02:35] <loiic_> Hi
[02:35] <NessieLiberation> Memories, i dont know these things very well either, but what settings have you set on the firewall?
[02:35] <loiic_> i am studying the possibility of doing an office network 100% linux where all the user account would be centralized on a NFS server (so that user can use any computer as if it were their), but i am wondering how i could deal with the laptops, would anyone have some recommendation ?
[02:35] <rob_p> ttjl: Do, "sudo ./install.sh" at the command prompt and it will walk you through it.
[02:35] <b52> kustOm rmmod says the same, i tried before
[02:35] <NessieLiberation> Memories, to be honest, you'd expect it to be pretty secure even without a firewall... but still
[02:35] <Memories> nessieliberation , everything's set automatialy not to leave any port open
[02:35] <thezenmaster> can't NTFS external hard drives be unmounted/ejected? mine keeps remounting after I choose eject
[02:35] <kust0m> loiic_: ldap?
[02:35] <Memories> nessieliberation , EXACTLY... "but still"
[02:36] <NessieLiberation> Memories, yeah, i know
[02:36] <NessieLiberation> turn it off, check a port
[02:36] <rob_p> ttjl: If it doesn't run, you might need to make sure it is set executable (chmod 755 ./install.sh).
[02:36] <NessieLiberation> turn it on, check a port
[02:36] <BrianHH> Hi, Everyone.  I've got an ATI X1300 graphics card.  To configure it, I used the instructions here:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=414194  When I follow those instructions, though, all I get is a blank screen when I boot up.  Can anyone  help me configure the system for 3d acceleration?  Thanks!
[02:36] <NessieLiberation> compare
[02:36] <NessieLiberation> there are websites you can use to check ports
[02:36] <loiic_> kust0m: ldap would solve the authentication problem, i am more concerned about how to set up a sort of synchonization mecanism
[02:36] <ttjl> rob_p: ok it told me to edit some configuration doc. going to do that now
[02:36] <Memories> nessieliberation , how can i scan my ports!
[02:36] <rob_p> ttjl: Ok, good.  Yes, do that.
[02:37] <UHT> Hi, I was hoping to get some help here. Whenever I open a video file with totem (gstreamer or xine) it just displays the busy icon indefinietely.
[02:37] <AmirB> hey guys
[02:37] <NessieLiberation> Memories, "there are websites which can do it" just use google and look for a port scanner
[02:37] <soundray> b52: did you try that?
[02:37] <Memories> um ok thank you :)
[02:37] <b52> soundray, still say the same

[02:37] <ttjl> rob_p: umm so how do i edit it?
[02:37] <b52> oh well
[02:38] <fr0nk> can someone please help me getting my mobile phone connecting via bluetooth to my pc?
[02:38] <kust0m> balbir97: which package?
[02:38] <AmirB> every time I turn on my computer, I have to type in "sudo dhclient eth" to get the internet to work (eth1 is the interface ndiswrapper assigns the card to).
[02:38] <soundray> b52: in that case, you'll have to reboot. Make sure the install replaced the correct rt2570.ko though:
[02:38] <fr0nk> it worked about one week ago and now the mobile phone says it can't estabilish a connection
[02:38] <AmirB> this isn't a problem per say, but I would like to have it work out of the box
[02:38] <AmirB> anyone know anything about this?
[02:38] <balbir97> kust0m: I installed libphp-jpgraph using apt-get
[02:38] <fr0nk> bluetooth-applet is running and configured to accept connections
[02:38] <b52> i just made make install
[02:38] <b52> i didnt replace anything
[02:39] <balbir97> I am new to apt-get
[02:39] <rob_p> ttjl: You can do, "sudo gedit /etc/init.d/i800_900_res_patch.sh"
[02:39] <soundray> b52: do a 'locate rt2570.ko | grep $(uname -r)' and ensure that the file that is returned is the same as in the directory where you compiled the module.
[02:39] <NessieLiberation> balbir97, apt-get install [package]  to install
[02:39] <kust0m> balbir97: well, that probably doesn't have something you can runfrom the consol. maybe "sudo find / -name '*jpgraph*'
[02:39] <NessieLiberation> apt-get remove [package]  to remove
[02:39] <NessieLiberation> those are the 2 main ones
[02:39] <arkanabar> rob_p:  isn't that gksu gedit?
[02:40] <soundray> b52: am I making sense?
[02:40] <thezenmaster>  can't NTFS external hard drives be unmounted/ejected? mine keeps remounting after I choose eject (maxtor one touch)
[02:40] <b52> he only returns /lib/modules/2.6.20-15-generic/kernel/ubuntu/wireless/rt2x00-legacy/rt2570/rt2570.ko
[02:40] <rob_p> arkanabar: Yeah, that'll work too.  :-)
[02:40] <rob_p> arkanabar: Probably better too!  Thanks.
[02:40] <soundray> b52: what's the pathname of the directory where you compiled it?
[02:40] <b52> and the file is the same
[02:40] <ttjl> rob_p: one last ignorant question...how many bits do i want

[02:41] <AmirB> every time I turn on my computer, I have to type in "sudo dhclient eth" to get the internet to work (eth1 is the interface ndiswrapper assigns the card to).

[02:41] <hedonistic-heath> I was playing around yesterday and tried installing a driver for my ATI card via envy, when I rebooted later in the day I was able to login but as soon as gnome is loading my desktop I'm immediately logged out - I abondoned windows completely on my desktop, so I would really appreciate it if someone would look over the details I've posted here:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=441713 - and provide any suggestions, Thanks.
[02:42] <ep|k> i setup my pc as web server
[02:42] <ttjl> rob_p: so now I just restart
[02:42] <ncd> any one play sauerbraten much?
[02:42] <Flannel> ep|k: you need to, in your virtualhost or in your general apache config, add a ServerName directve
[02:42] <b52> he says the files arent the same
[02:42] <rob_p> ttjl: Yes.  Well, that and cross fingers!  :-)
[02:42] <soundray> b52: I suspected that.
[02:42] <ttjl> rob_p: ok will let you know how it goes
[02:43] <rob_p> ttjl: But that should do it, yes.  I'll wait around for your return.
[02:43] <ep|k> Flannel: at apache2.conf?
[02:43] <soundray> b52: 'sudo cp /home/nightmare/rt2570-1.1.0-b2/Module/rt2570.ko /lib/modules/2.6.20-15-generic/kernel/ubuntu/wireless/rt2x00-legacy/rt2570/rt2570.ko' -- then reboot
[02:44] <compositore> beos!!!! ... fantastico!
[02:44] <ep|k> Flannel: where to add server name?
[02:44] <Flannel> ep|k: or in /sites-available  Anywhere
[02:45] <kust0m> eh.. which package was that again? php-jpgraph?
[02:45] <b52> soundray where is the interface file located?
[02:45] <peterka> AmirB:ADSL modem?
[02:45] <b52> ive to purge something
[02:45] <larson9999> linux rocks

[02:46] <rob_p> arkanabar: modify your /etc/resolv.conf file

[02:46] <rob_p> arkanabar: welcome
[02:47] <AmirB> peterka: I have a dell truemobile 1350 card. it worked fin on edgy but when I upgraded to feisty it started needing the "sudo dhclient eth1" treatment :)
[02:47] <AmirB> peterka: * :(
[02:48] <arkanabar> rob_p:  different DNS would explain why FF spends 10-20s looking up hosts under linux, and <2 under Win2k, yes?
[02:48] <ep|k> Flannel: ok..and then?
[02:48] <rob_p> arkanabar: perhaps, yes.
[02:48] <strance> in #ubuntu-cn
[02:48] <arkanabar> rob_p:  well, I'm off to try it.
[02:49] <rob_p> arkanabar: Make sure they are correct for your network.
