[04:10] <jenda> zehntagebart: encrypted flashdrive for documents, no more :)
[04:10] <jenda> aww
[04:10] <jenda> zehntagebart: what is the problem?
[04:10] <jenda> ah
[04:10] <jenda> encrypted.
[04:10] <jenda> I can't help with that (0 experience)
[04:11] <LjL> jenda: yes keep in mind that that is only one of *several* of such howto. IIRC there's EncryptedFilesystemHowto2, EncryptedFilesystemHowto3, etc. again, not sure why
[04:11] <thomas_> Jowi, but how should i associate this to the shortcuts ?
[04:11] <ehird> Anybody have >suggestions<?
[04:11] <jenda> LjL: I know. (seems #3 deals with Luks)
[04:12] <jenda> LjL: thx
[04:12] <Jowi> thomas_, in gnome? no idea (I don't use gnome)
[04:12] <LjL> jenda: but, while i've not tried that howto (the first one i referred to i mean), i believe that partitioning the flash drive itself is very simple: it's just like partitioning an IDE drive. that done, i don't believe there's much difference between using a file or an actual partition
[04:12] <thomas_> Jowi, ok than i have to look for a gnome solution
[04:13] <LjL> jenda: and even if there is, you could still just create a huge (2gb) file in a normal partition. not too elegant perhaps, but it'll work... though i don't really believe you'd have to
[04:14] <mamboadm> is the extension on a C program .pid?
[04:15] <foolip> can I list all packages which are *not* autoinstalled, i.e. those that aptitude thinks I really want? I suspect that I have alot of things that should be marked autoinstalled that aren't, that could be removed
[04:15] <kubuntu> hallo
[04:16] <ehird> Ok i installed rEFIt
[04:16] <ehird> hope it works now
[04:16] <ehird> bye
[04:16] <The> test
[04:16] <The> test
[04:16] <LjL> The: succesful
[04:16] <Tux> whois TUX
[04:16] <LjL> foolip: a second
[04:17] <conspiracy> 6
[04:17] <LjL> Tux: try with a leading slash ( / ) - and i suggest you make tests in your status window rather than in channels
[04:17] <LjL> i also suggest avoiding clones
[04:17] <evian> oh twisties, I didn't see your request for help installing a different kernel until just now...
[04:18] <evian> twisties, do you want to upgrade from dapper to edgy, or what?
[04:19] <sorl_> is there really a point for installing 64 instead of 32 bits for a server?
[04:19] <patrick__> !macro
[04:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about macro - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:19] <forkqueue> sorl_: Yes, especially if you have lots of memory
[04:20] <hexidigital_> LjL: i dont even know where to check next... both memtest failed with the sticks alone (individually)
[04:21] <toty> !backup
[04:21] <ubotu> There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[04:21] <LjL> hexidigital_: hm i was thinking of another (quite remote) possibility. are the HD you were booting from and the CD you booted memtest from on the same cable?
[04:21] <hexidigital_> LjL: no
[04:21] <sorl_> forkqueue, 1gb is what ill be using...
[04:21] <hexidigital_> LjL: change to the same channel?
[04:22] <maddogPT> hi all
[04:22] <LjL> hexidigital_: no... i was thinking maybe a cable problem. but if they're on different cables, no way
[04:22] <hexidigital_> oh
[04:22] <LjL> hexidigital_: it could still be a problem with the motherboard's IDE, perhaps try the floppy
[04:22] <hexidigital_> LjL: no floppy installled
[04:22] <forkqueue> sorl_: Then to be honest you'll probably find there's pretty much no performance difference
[04:22] <LjL> hexidigital_: but it really sounds like a motherboard or CPU problem to me. do you have any spare RAM sticks anyway?
[04:22] <hexidigital_> LjL: i have 1... trying it now
[04:22] <forkqueue> sorl_: But if it were my box I'd install 64bit just because I can :)
[04:23] <maddogPT> can any1 give me a hand? how do i configure my samsung 205bw to display its correct res (1680x1050)?
[04:23] <LjL> hexidigital_: remove all the others of course
[04:24] <hexidigital_> LjL: of course :)
[04:24] <LjL> hexidigital_: also, go to the BIOS and select failsafe settings - try optimal too, if that still fails (at least... most BIOS's i've seen have such defaults)
[04:24] <LjL> hexidigital_: the CMOS could still have been reset for some reason (it happens...) and the BIOS soft settings for RAM gone astray
[04:24] <maddogPT> can any1 give me a hand? how do i configure my samsung 205bw to display its correct res (1680x1050)?
[04:25] <hexidigital_> LjL: i'll check
[04:25] <ssk> hy .. i want to put a ubuntu version , but on my pc i have already a SO (xp) i want to keep bouth ..can  i install something like lilo or something like this to chose what SO to boot ???
[04:25] <hexidigital_> LjL: the new ram stick failed quicker
[04:25] <LjL> hexidigital_: it's *still* quite a remove possibility (if the BIOS detects a checksum error in the CMOS, it normally just resets settings to failsafe defaults automatically), but if we really want to rule out a broken motherboard...
[04:25] <bXi> is there a sed regex which i can use to get the text between te first 2 ' characters ?
[04:26] <semsis> hi is there a way i can play mp3 and dvd on totem in ubuntu 6.10?

[04:26] <ssk> some little help pls
[04:26] <j2daosh> ehird, ofcourse it does.... why wouldn't it? mac is no longer ppc
[04:26] <ehird> bitmvnch: it's working perfectly here
[04:27] <j2daosh> what do yall need help with?
[04:27] <bulmer> j2daosh: look at /etc/sshd.conf
[04:27] <__Jenny> find -iname *xsession-err* -exec rm {} \;
[04:27] <j2daosh> s/yall/y'all
[04:27] <ehird> j2daosh: Ohh macs don't use PPC now they use intel!! Surely their hardware ust work 100% the same now!!! ... not ...
[04:27] <bitmvnch> ehird: be sure to note that if you don't set up Boot Camp's BIOS emulation, you don't get accelerated video.
[04:27] <__Jenny> can some help me with this : find -iname *xsession-err* -exec rm {} \;
[04:27] <ssk> hy .. i want to put a ubuntu version , but on my pc i have already a SO (xp) i want to keep bouth ..can  i install something like lilo or something like this to chose what SO to boot ???
[04:27] <ehird> bitmvnch: yep, i did
[04:27] <bitmvnch> ehird: well, ubuntu doesn't work perfectly until it doesn't need BIOS emulation. ;)
[04:27] <Jellegant> um.... you mean OS?
[04:27] <awad> what's up? i'm on a fresh ubuntu system and *nothing* works! i downloaded this tool (aircrack-ng from aircrack-ng.org) and tried compiling it, that didn't work: www.home.no/hedhnta/paste.txt ... then i tried adding se basic software, apt-get install build-essential, apt-get install zsh ... but it complains it can't find any packages. i've asked in all linux channels i could find, and nobody can give me a straight answer, they just tell me to bugger of
[04:28] <bitmvnch>   :(
[04:28] <ssk> yes OS
[04:28] <bulmer> ss: easy, just install your ubuntu, and it will create a menu for you to select
[04:28] <Jellegant> bulmer's right.
[04:28] <ssk> bulmer thx
[04:28] <bitmvnch> ehird: did you not have to install lilo yourself via apt or something? i recall also having to do that step by hand.
[04:28] <__gotcha> I am trying to setup Java 1.5 on dapper drake
[04:28] <ehird> Boto camp-->Live cd + safe gfx (otherwise it messes up)-->lilo+ding dong the grub is dead tutorial-->oops that doesn't work-->install rEFIt-->partitoining tool in rEFIt-->allow it to sync-->"Boot Linux from " without a HD name :P-->lilo menu-->enter-->BOOM UBUNTU
[04:28] <mwe> __Jenny: what kind of help do you want with it?
[04:28] <__gotcha> any pointer to good doc ?
[04:28] <bitmvnch> maybe there is an updated 6.10 iso i should try?
[04:28] <ehird> bitmvnch: yeah, i had to backup+restore the mbr three times :P. then install lilo, but liloconf barfed so i had to manually write one
[04:29] <ehird> and it warned about OMG DOOM when i ran lilo, but after syncing up it works fine
[04:29] <bulmer> __gotcha: try to use synaptic to download it..
[04:29] <__gotcha> 1.4 only
[04:29] <Vlet> It seems that two of the files in http://archive.ubuntu.org/ubuntu/pool/main/g/glibc are read restricted to world (403 permission denied)
[04:29] <ehird> however... i havent isntalled video drivers aor anything yet
[04:29] <bitmvnch> ehird: sounds familiar..
[04:29] <rage_> awad: You are missing headers or something.
[04:29] <__gotcha> bulmer:
[04:29] <ehird> <3 1024x768 <3
[04:29] <ssk> bulmer  another question i have intel core duo - i download the ubuntu from the site... that desktop destribution... but i don't now if i have suport for core duo!
[04:29] <ehird> Still, it works good
[04:29] <ehird> ssk: it does
[04:29] <rage_> awad: you need to set up your package sources before you can install stuff.
[04:29] <bulmer> __gotcha: mine shows 1.5  im sure synaptic has it on its list..from the resources
[04:30] <ssk> ehird thx
[04:30] <ssk> by all
[04:30] <Jellegant> QUICK!!  What's the command to check and auto upgrade latest and best Ubuntu version   ---NOT apt-get!
[04:30] <mwe> !java | __gotcha
[04:30] <ubotu> __gotcha: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository
[04:30] <ehird> I might write a rough howto if there's demand
[04:30] <sikumkum> hello
[04:30] <rage_> awad: You might well be able to install aircrack from a multivers source.
[04:30] <bulmer> ssk: umm am not sure about the dual core, but why not try it and maybe you can spread the word if it works or not
[04:30] <rage_> awad: Someone might be able to point you at a sources.list generator.
[04:30] <sikumkum> how to apply the patch for edgy that wroten in this page: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssl/+bug/69239
[04:30] <rage_> !sources.list
[04:30] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections.  I'm COMPILING FROM SOURCE.@
[04:32] <floris84> lol
[04:32] <ehird> Is there a way to check what fs type a drive is? the mbr was synched up to a fat32 drive so i'm wondering if it morphed it into fat32 in linux' eyes ;p
[04:32] <bitmvnch> ehird: hum, i had no trouble with airport iirc, only the ati drivers
[04:32] <floris84> btw does anyone know howto add a file to your command search path?
[04:32] <ehird> bitmvnch: it doesnt even show upa s a device here
[04:32] <ehird> mght have to do trickery
[04:32] <ehird> as this is the latest batch of imacs, bought it in december
[04:32] <bitmvnch> ah-ha.
[04:33] <Vlet> two of the files on archive.ubuntu.com are 403 forbidden.. who would be the right person to contact about this?
[04:33] <bitmvnch> one day, this machine will die, and i will cry ;d
[04:33] <bulmer> floris84: you have to add it to your $PATH
[04:33] <soweto76> !EasySource
[04:33] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[04:33] <rage_> ehird: lol, yea
[04:34] <bitmvnch> ?ehird: imac has intel extreme graphics, no
[04:34] <bitmvnch> ?
[04:34] <floris84> bulmer: is there a good how-to about that?
[04:34] <sikumkum> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssl/+bug/69239 <-- anyone has tried to patch this bug
[04:34] <sikumkum> i notify the patch hasnt updated into ubuntu package yet
[04:34] <bulmer> ehird: to check what type of FS a hd has, do  a fdisk -l  /dev/hdx    where hdx is the drive
[04:35] <mamboadm> what extension do C programs end in?
[04:35] <foolip> LjL, did you have some idea about listing the not-autoinstalled packages?
[04:35] <bitmvnch> bulmer: that'll tell the partition type, not necessarily the fs type.
[04:35] <ehird> bitmvnch: no
[04:35] <bulmer> floris84: umm you just have to google and find command path bash
[04:35] <ehird> bitmvnch: the low end odel does
[04:35] <ehird> *odel
[04:35] <LjL> foolip: oh i was going to look about that, but i forgot sorry
[04:35] <ehird> Model
[04:35] <floris84> okay will do tnx
[04:35] <bitmvnch> ehird: yours have ATI or NV then?
[04:35] <ehird> but i got the 20@ oone
[04:35] <ehird> so ATI
[04:35] <ehird> ill prolly use the biniary drivers
[04:35] <bitmvnch> we're in the same boat, then
[04:35] <ehird> i need my beryl
[04:35] <bitmvnch> pretty sure you'll have to
[04:36] <bulmer> bitmvnch: umm FS is related to partition type, check the list in fdisk  and you'll see
[04:36] <bitmvnch> hopefully you are Boot Camp-ed right
[04:36] <ehird> well,
[04:36] <bitmvnch> BC does not like tri or quad-boot at all
[04:36] <ehird> boot camp obviously made a fat32 partition
[04:36] <goldeagle> hello, I do upgrade dapper-->edgy, but I have a error, http://sial.org/pbot/22609, I need help, please :)
[04:36] <ehird> so
[04:36] <ehird> i used its gparted to make ext3+swap
[04:36] <ehird> which out of synched it
[04:36] <ehird> and now boot cap complains about the type
[04:36] <bitmvnch> bulmer: not if the partition type is in conflict with the actual filesystem, which it sounds like may be the case for ehird
[04:36] <ehird> but the bios emulation works
[04:36] <ehird> and refit synced it back up so its all good
[04:36] <bitmvnch> ehird: boot camp will always do that, you can't fix it.
[04:36] <ehird> yeah
[04:36] <ehird> guessed so
[04:36] <bitmvnch> BC does not want you to touch the partitions
[04:36] <bitmvnch> period
[04:36] <bitmvnch> it knows
[04:37] <bitmvnch> like santa claus
[04:37] <sikumkum> why no one answering my question
[04:37] <sikumkum> :(
[04:37] <ehird> so, 1984 won't be like 1984... but 2007 will? ;)
[04:37] <__gotcha> ubotu: thanks !!
[04:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about thanks !! - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:37] <bitmvnch> sikumkum: sorry, not familiar with that patch myself..
[04:37] <ehird> lol@first-mac-advert
[04:37] <bitmvnch> ehird: i think future iterations of BC will improve
[04:37] <bitmvnch> but for now it blows
[04:37] <sikumkum> bitmvnch: i got problem for running stream_select
[04:38] <ehird> Cannot open /dev/sda3
[04:38] <ehird> -- "eff you" disk
[04:38] <LjL> foolip: the output of aptitude search is supposed to show "A" as the third character if a package was installed automatically... hold on, i'll try to give you a full command line
[04:38] <Junkies> does ubuntu support ufs partiton type ?
[04:38] <bitmvnch> Junkies: at least as read, for sure, or at least the linux kernel does last i checked.
[04:38] <ehird> Ok, i need to upgrade pkgs
[04:38] <ehird> libc6 or something has a borked upgrade, right
[04:38] <sikumkum> does anyone has tried the php5-cli with stream_select (openssl required) in ubuntu edgy 6.10 amd64 ?
[04:39] <bitmvnch> sikumkum: ah, php5, on your own
[04:39] <lojikal> sup?
[04:39] <bitmvnch> php5 *and* amd64
[04:39] <bitmvnch> ;d
[04:39] <matsyes> Hi i have ubuntu 6.06 installed on my comp and i want to upgrade to 6.10 however i do not have a working cdrom drive and no net connection on my ubuntu comp It however does have a usb port.I however have access to a net connection on a windows based comp and a usb drive with plenty of space for data transfer.Can anyone please advise me on how to upgrade?
[04:39] <LjL> foolip: "aptitude search ~M". matches all automatically installed packages
[04:39] <lojikal> install the latest ubuntu on that windows machine :) j/k
[04:40] <hexidigital_> is there a program to check the integrity of the hard disks? (not the data, the hardware)
[04:40] <__gotcha> ;-)
[04:40] <sikumkum> bitmvnch: no, its from the original package. the php itself required openssl libsss whereas included in ubuntu itself where it has a bg
[04:40] <sikumkum> *bug
[04:40] <LjL> foolip: "aptitude search \!~M" should match those *not* installed automatically
[04:40] <bitmvnch> sikumkum: not following
[04:40] <_Roman> I am trying to install kubuntu-desktop package into my Ubuntu 6.06 install.  I am having a problem with a library,  I can not install libpoppler1-qt because libpoppler1 is too new (it requires 0..5.1 I have 0.5.3)  I can not downgrade this package as it will uninstall my gnome install.  Does anyone have any solution to this problem?
[04:40] <Junkies> bitmvnch ok
[04:40] <matsyes> lojikal:ummm i really want 6.10 on the other machine :D
[04:41] <bitmvnch> matsyes: why not buy a cheap NIC for that ubuntu machine?
[04:41] <foolip> LjL, a, thanks. I can do my greping and sedding
[04:41] <sikumkum> bitmvnch: any application that required openssl, libssl which installed from apt-get.. mostly went crash
[04:41] <bitmvnch> it's no fun w/o the net anyway
[04:41] <bitmvnch> sikumkum: ah..
[04:41] <matsyes> bitmvnch>:whats nic
[04:41] <bitmvnch> sikumkum: consider downgrading openssl?
[04:41] <bitmvnch> or rebuilding a patched package yourself?
[04:41] <LjL> foolip: no need, those commands i gave you above will just work (i was going to try grepping and sedding too but there's no need really)
[04:41] <bitmvnch> matsyes: Network Interface Card ;)
[04:42] <sikumkum> bitmvnch: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssl/+bug/69239 <-- this page told me that ubuntu;s dev should replace the following files
[04:42] <LjL> foolip: you want http://people.debian.org/~dburrows/aptitude-doc/en/ch02s03.html for more elaborate searches without grep and sed
[04:42] <hexidigital_> LjL: i'm back into my server... but i dont know for how long.. do you know of a hdd checking utility?
[04:42] <foolip> LjL, ok, thanks. the inverse of ~M would be what I'm looking for
[04:42] <bitmvnch> sikumkum: if you don't see that change in ubuntu yet, you can always try applying it yourself
[04:42] <ehird> ... right?
[04:42] <matsyes> bitmvnch:ummm ...:d
[04:42] <LjL> foolip: yes, and that would be \!~M i believe
[04:43] <LjL> foolip: well, it would be !~M, but i guess ! has to be escaped
[04:43] <bitmvnch> matsyes: how does your windows computer get on the internet?
[04:43] <foolip> LjL, sweet
[04:43] <matsyes> but seriously any ideas on how to go about it
[04:43] <apollo2011> Does the legacy nvidia driver provide 3D glx support?
[04:43] <foolip> thanks
[04:43] <bitmvnch> matsyes: seriously, get a cheap NIC.
[04:43] <matsyes> bitmvnch:its at a totally different location
[04:43] <LjL> hexidigital_: i'd use smartmontools for a start
[04:43] <hexidigital_> ok
[04:43] <hexidigital_> thanks
[04:43] <bitmvnch> matsyes: then how might they possibly talk over USB?
[04:43] <bitmvnch> heh
[04:44] <evian> ok I found my answer how to remove multiple old dapper kernels now that I installed edgy, I do:ls sudo apt-get remove --purge 2.6.15-23*
[04:44] <bitmvnch> oh you just want to dump stuff onto a drive and copy it?
[04:44] <bitmvnch> hrmf.
[04:44] <_Roman> I am trying to install kubuntu-desktop package into my Ubuntu 6.06 install.  I am having a problem with a library,  I can not install libpoppler1-qt because libpoppler1 is too new (it requires 0..5.1 I have 0.5.3)  I can not downgrade this package as it will uninstall my gnome install.  Does anyone have any solution to this problem?
[04:44] <matsyes> bitmvnch:what can i say not an option :P
[04:44] <bitmvnch> good luck with that :/
[04:44] <apollo2011> I used to use the normal nvidia driver but it quit working and I tried installing it from the .bin and it insisted that my graphics card was only supported by the legacy driver so I installed that one and now I have it enabled and X11 works, but when I run Unreal Tournament 2004, it claims that GLX support is missing.
[04:44] <LjL> hexidigital_: "smartctl -A /dev/hdX" will tell you something, though it can be hard to interpret... probably, doing an offline test would be good too ("smartctl -t offline /dev/hdX")
[04:44] <hexidigital_> ok
[04:44] <evian> although I should reboot and see if I didn't destroy my system now
[04:44] <LjL> hexidigital_: anyway now it's running... using what?
[04:44] <bitmvnch> apollo2011: quite possibly true.
[04:44] <matsyes> bitmvnch:i didnt understand the last statement about usb talk
[04:44] <bitmvnch> what happened when it quit working..
[04:45] <bitmvnch> matsyses no matter, i think you're out of luck
[04:45] <heydabop> I'm having problems starting administrative applications. Add/Remove... won't work, niether will update manager, or gksudo gedit. I haven't tried more than that since I updated.
[04:45] <TSWoodV> Hello!  Got a problem with Edgy and a Matrox G400 video card.  Seems that when I (re)boot, I've got the correct 1600x1200 video settings.  After logging out, it reverts at gdm to 800x600 and won't let me set it any higher in Preferences->Screen Resolution.
[04:45] <bitmvnch> consider taking the ubuntu machine somewhere with network for the upgrade?
[04:45] <patrick__> now do i make a app run as soon as i login
[04:45] <sikumkum> gosh
[04:45] <apollo2011> I rebooted about a week ago and then X wouldn't load, I believe the last update before the reboot included a kernel upgrade

[04:45] <sikumkum> seems ubuntu was develop from desktop end-user
[04:45] <matsyes> bitmvnch:theres gotta be a way isnt there some way to make the upload thru a uxb boot???
[04:45] <patrick__> sheer
[04:45] <bitmvnch> once, when i was unemployed for an extended time with no internet connection of my own, i would take my laptop to friends' houses to run apt-get upgrade.
[04:46] <hexidigital_> LjL: my 1024 stick and my old 256 stick... i have no idea what's going on here
[04:46] <heydabop> patrick: I think in prefrences there's a startup thing.
[04:46] <bitmvnch> matsyes: the archive for ubuntu is large, i'm not sure how much trouble it would be to try and make it available on a usb drive
[04:46] <bitmvnch> maybe you can download all the available ISOs
[04:46] <ehird> do the binary ati drivers play nice with 64bit?
[04:46] <bitmvnch> ehird: no idea here.
[04:46] <jenda> LjL: I just can't translate that howto to a normal partition... you think you could give me a hand with that? I can't figure out that final cryptsetup command in the 'create the encrypted file' command.
[04:46] <LjL> hexidigital_: weird enough for sure
[04:46] <hexidigital_> LjL: started yesterday when i was at school.. i was SSHed in, and had to reboot the server, and it wouldn't come back up... 2 hours later, i find that the server never completely shut down... it was stuck
[04:47] <matsyes> bitmvnch:hehehe ... but yeah i gota a big usb drive and i have downloaded the iso's
[04:47] <heydabop> I'm having problems starting administrative applications. Add/Remove... won't work, niether will update manager, or gksudo gedit. I haven't tried more than that since I updated.
[04:47] <ehird> Wait, is the normal Desktop edition even 64bit?
[04:47] <bitmvnch> matsyes: well, mount the isos?
[04:47] <bitmvnch> ehird: probably not?
[04:47] <matsyes> bitmvnch:they are all on the usb
[04:47] <jenda> LjL: would that be "sudo cryptsetup -c aes -s 256 -h sha256 -y create usbkey /dev/sda2" or am I getting it totally wrong?
[04:47] <Jowi> ehird, no
[04:47] <ehird> Jowi: oh crap
[04:47] <matsyes> bitmvnch:how do i mount the iso's !!!
[04:47] <bitmvnch> matsyes, sure, mount them as filesystems
[04:47] <ehird> aaaaaaaaaarghm i bet it all craps up when i nistall the 64bit
[04:47] <bitmvnch> same way you mount any block device
[04:47] <Jowi> ehird, what hardware do you have?
[04:47] <mwe> is ctrl-alt-backspace supposed to make Xorg reread xorg.conf or only /etc/init.d/?dm restart?
[04:48] <heydabop> matsyes: What do you mean mount an .iso?
[04:48] <LjL> jenda, right now i don't really know. but i won't mind trying it out myself with my USB key in a moment
[04:48] <Sk8aelf> hmm   i have a kinda simple question if i could get some help.   with ubuntu 6.10 server
[04:48] <LjL> !loop | heydabop, matsyes
[04:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about loop - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:48] <heydabop> Ask the question.
[04:48] <jenda> LjL: cool, thanks.
[04:48] <LjL> !loopback
[04:48] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type "sudo mount -o loop my.iso <mountpoint>" There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before burning. Burning .iso files: see !burn
[04:48] <matsyes> bitmvnch:as in 'mount -t vfat *.iso folder
[04:48] <ehird> But when i boot into ubuntu it says about enabling 64bit...
[04:48] <heydabop> LjL: What?
[04:48] <bitmvnch> -t iso9660
[04:48] <heydabop> Oh, ok.
[04:49] <fotoflo3> hey all, im trying to setup a dyndns using ddclient, but ddclient isnt working (and its not telling me why!)     can anyone help?
[04:49] <LjL> heydabop: see above... i got the bot command wrong
[04:49] <Sk8aelf> have lamp server installed  and running  but cannot get proftpd installed   doing everything from the console
[04:49] <heydabop> Ok.
[04:49] <matsyes> heydabop:umm i'm trying to understand too

[04:49] <TSWoodV> OK, so dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg fixed my problem.  Why?  Why did the machine boot into 1600x1200 like it should have, but after a logout it reverted to 800x600?  Somehow it had the correct settings to do 1600x1200 in the first place.   Add/Remove... won't work, niether will update manager, or gksudo gedit. I haven't tried more than that since I updated.
[04:50] <ehird> Does 64bit still use ubiquity etc
[04:50] <ehird> i.e. graphical
[04:50] <TSWoodV> heydabop: Can you run "sudo -i" and get a root shell?
[04:51] <Jowi> heydabop, sudo -i ?
[04:51] <ehird> if so i might be able to survive, otherwise i think i'll go kill myself before installing ubuntu again
[04:51] <apollo2011> bitmvnch: I rebooted about a week ago and then X wouldn't load, I believe the last update before the reboot included a kernel upgrade, however I was using the Ubuntu package for nvidia. I still don't understand how my graphics card could simply become unsupported by the nvidia driver. Their website still shows that my card is supported by the normal driver.
[04:51] <heydabop> TSWoodV: Just a second.
[04:51] <Sk8aelf> anybody familiar with installing proftpd on unbuntu lamp server ?
[04:51] <__gotcha> both Add/remove Applications and Synaptic show that JRE5 has been installed
[04:51] <ehird> For computers based on the AMD64 or EM64T architecture (e.g., Athlon64, Opteron, EM64T Xeon). It is not necessary for all (even most) processors made by AMD -- only their 64 bit chips. <-- Wait, is it only for AD then
[04:51] <ehird> AMD
[04:51] <__gotcha> however, when typing java -version, I still get 1.4...
[04:51] <matsyes> bitmvnch,heydabop:so too cool i can directly mount the iso cool but how do i make it the bootable device
[04:52] <ehird> matsyes: you cant boot from an iso
[04:52] <ehird> burn itt o a disk
[04:52] <matsyes> ehird:thats the prob my cd drive is jacked
[04:52] <TSWoodV> __gotcha: It's not uncommon to have multiple JRE/JDK versions installed simultaneously.  Various applications require specific Java versions.
[04:52] <ehird> matsyes: tough then, get a new one :/... you cant boot from an iso..
[04:53] <fotoflo3> my ddclient.conf is like 8 lines, can anyone help me for a minute?
[04:53] <Menisk> I need some more convicing about why to use ubuntu.
[04:53] <__gotcha> TSWoodV: iow, I should give a full path... any idea how I find where synaptic did the setup ?
[04:53] <ehird> Menisk: if freedom doesn't convince you, just don't use ubuntu, simple
[04:53] <matsyes> ehird:the original question was 'Hi i have ubuntu 6.06 installed on my comp and i want to upgrade to 6.10 however i do not have a working cdrom drive and no net connection on my ubuntu comp It however does have a usb port.I however have access to a net connection on a windows based comp and a usb drive with plenty of space for data transfer.Can anyone please advise me on how to upgrade? '
[04:53] <niklas_e> is all program avalible under amd64 that exists in i386?
[04:54] <ehird> Hmm, is there much benefit to using the 64bit edition?
[04:54] <Menisk> I have used it a fair bit, I have it on my server but I dunno why I should put it on my laptop.
[04:54] <basil> sudo apt-get install proftpd
[04:54] <ehird> Specifically i'm probably going to play some games and use beryl far too much :p
[04:54] <TSWoodV> __gotcha: Which repo(s) did you get your JRE/JDKs from?
[04:55] <__gotcha> TSWoodV:  multiverse
[04:55] <Menisk> I like windows because it does the stuff I want and like ubuntu for the fact it is FOSS and has a lot more support.
[04:55] <jewbilee> hey
[04:55] <Menisk> Hmmmmmm.
[04:55] <jewbilee> What is the name of the Java 5 SDK package?
[04:55] <ehird> Anyone?
[04:56] <rage_> ehird: speed?
[04:56] <mneptok> jewbilee: suh-java5-jdk
[04:56] <rage_> ehird: I would have thought.
[04:56] <mneptok> s/suh/sun/
[04:56] <Menisk> ehird, I have AMD64 on my laptop and it is backwards compatible with 32bit apps.
[04:56] <jewbilee> mneptok: jdk is the development environment?
[04:56] <ehird> Menisk: not in ubuntu i tisn't.
[04:56] <Menisk> It isn't?
[04:56] <Menisk> :(
[04:56] <Menisk> That puts me off 64it ubuntu.
[04:56] <rage_> ?
[04:56] <ehird> Plus, it's more OMG IT TOOK 2 DAYS TO GET UBUNTU INSTalled and working EVEN SLIGHTLY  ON THIS MAC PLEASE KILL ME NOW
[04:56] <Jowi> ehird, the software is compiled for 64bit. you can use the 32bit version fine though.
[04:57] <ehird> Jowi: well, yeah
[04:57] <mneptok> jewbilee: Java Development Kit. basic build and environment tolls. no IDEs or anything.
[04:57] <ehird> but i want to maximise speed, but is it really worth it?
[04:57] <Sk8aelf> anybody have an answer  to this question   ubuntu server 6.10 installed  sudo apt-get install proftpd cannot find packageproftpd  any fix ?
[04:57] <Jowi> ehird, what Mac do you have?
[04:57] <matsyes> ppl any suggestions???
[04:57] <Jowi> !proftpd
[04:57] <ubotu> proftpd: Versatile, virtual-hosting FTP daemon. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.3.0-9ubuntu0.1 (edgy), package size 594 kB, installed size 1532 kB
[04:57] <rage_> Sk8aelf: apt-get update
[04:57] <Menisk> Jowi in normal day to day stuff you wouldn't really notice the differnce in speed between 64 and 32 bit ubuntu would you?
[04:58] <basil> add extra repositories  for proftpd
[04:58] <Jowi> Sk8aelf, enable universe repo
[04:58] <TSWoodV> __gotcha:  As far as I understand, you just have to make sure that when a particular application needs a particular flavor of Java, that your paths (PATH, CLASSPATH, etc.) are correct for that app.
[04:58] <bulmer> Sk8aelf: suggestion, if the package is available on rpm, use alien to convert and install it...
[04:58] <mneptok> *tools. bah.
[04:58] <basil> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_add_extra_repositories
[04:58] <Jowi> Menisk, I don't know. Have only ever had 32bit CPUs
[04:58] <ehird> Jowi: Intel Core 2 Duo, 1GB ra, 2.1GHZ processor, from december
[04:59] <Jowi> ehird, oh ok. running ubuntu on a mac mini core duo (not the core 2 64 bit one)
[04:59] <Menisk> ehird AMD Turion 64 2.0Ghz 512kb L2, 1GB DDR2 533Mhz from december.
[04:59] <Menisk> :P
[04:59] <basil> Sk8aelf  adding  extra repositories  will resolve the issue for installing proftpd
[05:00] <Menisk> I like AMD better than intel.
[05:00] <ehird> Menisk: heh... I like AD too :p
[05:00] <ehird> But apple has a love affari with Intel
[05:00] <Menisk> Other than the fact the blow up with out their heatsink.
[05:00] <ehird> And I hate this keyboard with this laggy fgfx drivers
[05:00] <Menisk> Bad experience with that.
[05:00] <ehird> *gfx
[05:00] <faeryNatsuki> i need some help
[05:00] <y3it221_klce> hi, i need a project for my Final year.., any suggestions??
[05:00] <ehird> Anyway... is there >any< noticable advantage, to people who ahve actually cvedked
[05:00] <ehird> y3it221_klce: um
[05:01] <Menisk> I blew an  AMD Athlon XP 2400+ like that.
[05:01] <Menisk> :P
[05:01] <ehird> yay, exploding processors
[05:01] <ehird> they're like.. .exploding kittens... except processors
[05:01] <Jowi> ehird, you don't have an intel chipset in that one? on the video I mean.
[05:01] <Menisk> Intels are bloody durable though.
[05:01] <faeryNatsuki> installing winetools it tries to setup something in /usr/local/bin, but i don't have this folder... which folder is the correct?
[05:01] <TSWoodV> Menisk: I've had about 10 fans fail on the exposed core AMD processors now.  All of them burned up, some quite spectacularly...
[05:01] <faeryNatsuki> must i have to create that folder?
[05:01] <Menisk> I put a celeron through the microwave, it can still boot to BIOS.
[05:01] <Menisk> Weird.
[05:01] <heydabop> TSWoodV: Was it you who asked me to get to root terminal?
[05:02] <TSWoodV> heydabop: Yes.
[05:02] <heydabop> Well I got there.
[05:02] <ehird> Jowi: No, I got the leeter mdel with ATI
[05:02] <ehird> *model
[05:02] <TSWoodV> heydabop: OK, now try launching the applications that you couldn't via gksudo.
[05:02] <heydabop> Ok, brb.
[05:02] <onats> hi, how do i install a program which has an extension of .bin? or is that an executable already?
[05:02] <Menisk> ehird: which card does the 1337er model come with?
[05:02] <Jowi> ehird, tough. the intel driver (i810 and up) rock in linux. running Beryl without probs.
[05:02] <ehird> Menisk: ome random ati card
[05:03] <Menisk> .bin is an image
[05:03] <ehird> Jowi: i'm going to install the binary ati drivers oson...
[05:03] <Menisk> :P
[05:03] <ehird> anyyyyyway time to reboot to check out the 64bit version and if ill install it or not
[05:03] <twisties> can anyone tell me how to change to a 64bit kernel?
[05:03] <matsyes> Hi i know i'm repeating myself but ...well ] i have ubuntu 6.06 installed on my comp and i want to upgrade to 6.10 however i do not have a working cdrom drive and no net connection on my ubuntu comp It however does have a usb port.I however have access to a net connection on a windows based comp and a usb drive with plenty of space for data transfer.Can anyone please advise me on how to upgrade?
[05:03] <onats> Menisk, so what do i do with it?
[05:04] <Menisk> ehird: I have ATi Radeon Xpress 1150 in this. It is weird it has 256mb GDDR and 256mb of shared.

[05:04] <Menisk> You'll need to get a program that can extract a .bin
[05:05] <jm_dev> hi
[05:05] <matsyes> hey
[05:05] <heydabop> TSWoodV: Well, I tried gedit editing my sources.list, and it worked.
[05:05] <jm_dev> Is there any Gnome Planner-Evolution Integration?
[05:05] <Moniker42> hey, i've got some unallocated space split up across my hard drive, can i bring the three together to form one partition with gparted?

[05:05] <onats> nice
[05:06] <TSWoodV> matsyes: If your computer will boot from a USB stick, then you can put 6.10 image on the stick and boot from there.
[05:06] <Moniker42> twisties, re-install - with the 64-bit version
[05:06] <Menisk> !.in
[05:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about in - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[05:06] <Menisk> !anything
[05:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about anything - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:06] <onats> yes
[05:06] <onats> jowi, yes
[05:07] <matsyes> menisk:thats hilarious :P
[05:07] <Sk8aelf> how do you add in extra repositories   thru the console   ?
[05:07] <TSWoodV> matsyes: You'll need to google to determine how to transfer the .iso to the stick for booting.  It's doable.
[05:07] <Moniker42> twisties, i don't know - i'm not an expert. but probably not. it might be that even if you could do it the easiest thing would be to reinstall with a 64bit version
[05:07] <Menisk> matseyes: What is?
[05:07] <Jowi> onats, in a terminal "chmod +x GoogleEarthLinux.bin" to make it executable. then type "./GoogleEarthLinux.bin"
[05:07] <Moniker42> i've got some unallocated space split up across my hard drive, can i bring the three together to form one partition with gparted?
[05:07] <onats> ooooooooohhkay!
[05:07] <Jowi> onats, that should run the installer for you
[05:08] <onats> so basically, binaries are executables right?
[05:08] <onats> @jowi, thanks
[05:08] <faeryNatsuki> !winetools
[05:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about winetools - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:08] <frogzoo> Moniker42: not easily, no
[05:08] <matsyes> TSWoodV:ok will do that but glad to know the basis for the process thanks a lot!!!
[05:08] <Moniker42> i've got some unallocated space split up across my hard drive, can i bring the three together to form one partition with gparted?
[05:08] <Menisk> matsyes: What;'s hilarious?
[05:08] <Moniker42> frogzoo, k...
[05:08] <Jowi> onats, .bin can be binaries, yes
[05:08] <Jowi> onats, executables i mean
[05:08] <matsyes> Menisk:the response to !anything
[05:08] <Menisk> Meh.
[05:09] <onats> there we ... installing
[05:09] <onats> thanks

[05:09] <Jowi> np onats
[05:09] <jm_dev> Does anyone know about a gnome-planner/evolution integration?... (planner-eds package doesn't exists for ubuntu)
[05:10] <LjL> jenda: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2749/
[05:10] <LjL> jenda: i guess what you missed was the reboot
[05:10] <matsyes> TSWoodV:so effectively i have to convert the iso into an image that can be put into an usb and bootable for it btw what filesystem should i choose
[05:11] <twisties> Moniker42: Hmmm, I'd rather not re-install. strange thing is i started with a LIVE cd which installed a generic kernel. the nvidia driver i installed in order to us beryl needed a non-generic kernel so somewhere along the line ive moved to a 386 kernel and now both are in my grub menu. I just hope I can install a 64 bit kernel seeing im on an amd64.
[05:11] <hexidigital> LjL::  i'm sorry to keep pestering you.. smartctl -t offline will output or log the data?  (by the way, -A shows old_age and Pre-fail)
[05:11] <Nerd42> the freaking electricity went out just now
[05:11] <jenda> LjL: I don't think there was a reboot yet...
[05:12] <Nerd42> TERRIBLY SORRY everyone ... I tried to ask a question a while ago ... did anybody respond while the power was out ?
[05:12] <LjL> jenda: i don't know if it's mentioned in the howto... still you need to reboot when my paste says so
[05:12] <jenda> LjL: aha, I missed cfdisk
[05:12] <LjL> jenda: well cfdisk is optional, you can use gparted or whatever you like instead
[05:12] <jenda> LjL: how's that different from making a partition in gparted?
[05:12] <jenda> ok
[05:12] <calvarez> hello! I've a question, are there any F/OSS party games similar to Mario Party or Super Monkey Ball?
[05:12] <apokryphos> does anyone know what bugtracker http://www.cups.org/str.php is?
[05:13] <basil> Sk8aelf    edit    /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:13] <Garito> hi all!
[05:13] <zylche> It adds strength to the bugtracker.
[05:13] <lojikal> anyone good at networking tricks?
[05:13] <LjL> calvarez: i'm not sure what those are, but perhaps there's a game i have in mind that might be similar to that... a second
[05:13] <Garito> how can I install a ubuntu edgy server from alternate cd?
[05:13] <zylche> don't go to int.php, we don't want an ai server!
[05:13] <hexidigital> lojikal::  shouldn't that go to #ubuntu-offtopic?
[05:13] <hexidigital> lojikal::  or is it specific to troubleshooting?
[05:13] <zylche> hexidigital thats still ontopic, technically ..
[05:13] <calvarez> LjL, they're games where several people can play on the same machine, the screen divides if necessary
[05:14] <tzbishop> please, can anyone help me with the microphone?
[05:14] <Garito> is possible to install the server from an alternate cd of edgy?
[05:14] <hexidigital> zylche::  yeah, i just read tricks :)  my fault
[05:14] <tzbishop> tzbishop.homelinux.net:8080
[05:14] <LjL> calvarez, hm then no, i guess not
[05:14] <calvarez> the closest thing I can find is tuxcart
[05:14] <lojikal> well, it's ubuntu related -- trying to configure a proxy type deal, but i'll try there
[05:14] <glombool> !sound
[05:14] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin
[05:14] <Nerd42> About the channel topic: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ doesn't work
[05:15] <hexidigital> lojikal::  no, if it's related to tech issues, ask here... i just read the tricks part, my appologies
[05:15] <Sk8aelf> basil::  did that ..... says error with mime-type   hmm   might be time for a clean load yet again ....
[05:16] <LjL> jenda: mind that the adding of a new user was totally unnecessary with all probability... i just did it because the howto warned about that, but then the howto is about using an encrypted partition *for gpg key storage*, which is not what i've done
[05:16] <jenda> LjL: hehe... I just finished that part, wondering ;)
[05:16] <jenda> LjL: but no matter.
[05:17] <LjL> jenda: oh whoops - i missed something in that log. you need to install cryptsetup, and *then* reboot ;-) the reason you need to reboot is that cryptsetup changes the initrd
[05:17] <jenda> hehe
[05:17] <jenda> I have that.
[05:17] <Garito> is possible to install edgy server with the alternate cd?
[05:17] <jenda> I probably missed that, then, you're right.
[05:17] <tzbishop>  tzbishop.homelinux.net:8080/7.png
[05:17] <basil> Sk8aelf ...  was you able to  install proftpd
[05:17] <tzbishop> can anybody help me w/ the mic, please?
[05:17] <arsentop> how would i browse files on a card reader? (vaio tx1hp / edgy buntu)
[05:18] <LjL> jenda: if the error that you had was about devicemapper version incompatible with something and something else - then yes
[05:18] <lojikal> well, i'm trying to take all my ports from my comptuer, socks/vpn/proxy type thing them into one port and tunnel through there (prolly horribly mucking up the vocab there), but its because the connection i'm on only has one port outside the network open to access the computer
[05:18] <lojikal> and i dont' know how to do it
[05:19] <jenda> LjL: not exactly. It was something about ioctl, I think.
[05:19] <tzbishop> can anybody help me w/ the mic, please?
[05:19] <Nerd42> PLEASE HELP ME: I have a computer that looks like this, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Ibook12.jpg minus the mouse, and when I try to login to Ubuntu it gives me an error message that looks like this: http://paste.lisp.org/display/35855
[05:19] <Garito> anyone knows if is possible to install edgy server from alternate cd?
[05:19] <LjL> jenda: hm not sure about that (cannot see the error i had got anymore anyway)... you're on edgy anyway?
[05:19] <LjL> garito: yes
[05:19] <Garito> LjL: thanks! how please?
[05:20] <LjL> Garito: by just doing it. you will be asked what flavor to install during the installation process
[05:20] <Garito> and what choose?
[05:20] <LjL> !ask | tzbishop
[05:20] <ubotu> tzbishop: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:20] <LjL> Garito: what about "server"? ;)
[05:20] <Garito> aja
[05:20] <Garito> but in the menu?
[05:20] <LjL> Garito: what menu?
[05:20] <Garito> I'm a little newbie
[05:21] <Garito> the boot one
[05:21] <Garito> oem installation
[05:21] <Garito> other options...?

[05:21] <ultraNOOB> hi all
[05:21] <ultraNOOB> how do i know if i have libio-socket-ssl-perl  installed?
[05:21] <tzbishop> I have a mic working on windows but i can't make it work on ubuntu. tzbishop.homelinux.net:8080/7.png -> that's the screenshot of the mixer.
[05:21] <LjL> Garito: hmm, it's either just "Enter" or type "server" and then Enter
[05:21] <Garito> ok
[05:21] <LjL> Garito: try "server"
[05:21] <Nerd42> PLEASE HELP ME: I have a computer that looks like this, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Ibook12.jpg minus the mouse, and when I try to login to Ubuntu it gives me an error message that looks like this: http://paste.lisp.org/display/35855

[05:22] <bugihugi> lojikal: you want to look for openvpn
[05:22] <tzbishop> LjL: which one should be red?
[05:22] <LjL> tzbishop: "Mic"
[05:22] <LjL> tzbishop: it's the lights at the bottom
[05:23] <tzbishop> LjL: only mic?
[05:23] <LjL> tzbishop: click on the Mic one, and it'll become bright red
[05:23] <LjL> tzbishop: yes
[05:23] <Crema10> Eric B and Rakim

[05:44] <Nerd42> ok
[05:44] <mustaukko> Nerd42: Is the computer on atm?
[05:44] <Nerd42> well ... 1 sec here - i just burned another ubuntu cd (version 1 6)
[05:44] <xmOD> i did it with the help of a friend and i dont remember any steps
[05:45] <mustaukko> Nerd42: Do you have the error there in front of you?
[05:45] <Nerd42> er .. no at the moment it is busy trying to boot to another ubuntu CD
[05:45] <mustaukko> Nerd42: ok. see how that goes then. :)
[05:45] <Nerd42> should i turn it off and try to get the prompt instead?
[05:45] <Taime1> why do you want the windows bootloader?
[05:45] <Nerd42> ok ... fancy start up noise just happened
[05:46] <mustaukko> Nerd42: Nah, you planning to reinstall anyways, it seems. :D
[05:46] <Nerd42> Whats "on atm" mean ?
[05:46] <mustaukko> Nerd42: AtTheMoment.
[05:46] <xmOD> cause my linux hdd crashed and now wheneva comp starts, it tries to load grub which cannot be accessed and so i cant log in anywhere on any os
[05:46] <Nerd42> mustaukko: I only started trying that when it seemed that nobody was answering
[05:46] <Taime1> i see... so there is no botloader present
[05:46] <Jowi> _rogue780, just to verify that the myth script actually works. how about replacing config = /usr/local/bin/mythpowerbutton.sh" with "config = echo test &" and restart irexec in a terminal then press the power button. "test" should be printed in the terminal each time you press it.
[05:46] <Taime1> boot*
[05:46] <Nerd42> mustaukko: On the CD I was using before, reinstalling didn't help - the same message still came up

[05:47] <bbird> Hi. I have a problem with my (k)ubuntu edgy. The wireless network interface seems to work correctly, but it is not able to connect to the wireless network of my office
[05:47] <mustaukko> Nerd42: You see, like in windows you have system eventlog, in linux you have /var/log/ folder that contains a heap of log files.
[05:47] <xmOD> taimel: the grub is configured as the bootloader and i wanna put the windows loader back there so that i can atleast log into windows
[05:47] <Taime1> well, in my opinion, the easiest thing to (since i dont know how to load the windows boot loader) is to reinstall grub the the MBR
[05:47] <Nerd42> ah
[05:47] <Nerd42> ok and u are wanting to go see what those say ?
[05:47] <hamre_> excuse me, i just installed ubuntu on my laptop, i'm trying to compile a program but i get many error messages: www.home.no/hedhnta/paste.txt ... i've tried edited /etc/apt/sources.list and run apt-get install build-essential but it keeps telling me it can't find any packages...
[05:47] <Taime1> then, grub will find windows at bootup
[05:47] <mustaukko> Nerd42: I'd like you to go through these log files, and we could check out what they contain.
[05:47] <Nerd42> OK! :)
[05:47] <Taime1> and whala! you are in windows
[05:47] <mustaukko> Nerd42: So this is a fresh install?
[05:48] <mamboadm> how do i script alias something?
[05:48] <Nerd42> mustaukko right now its running off a cd
[05:48] <xmOD> well u dont understand.. there is NO grub.. NO linux HDD, my comp looks for something that aint present
[05:48] <Nerd42> and taking forever
[05:48] <mustaukko> Nerd42: Ok, no install, just the livecd. You are trying it out, thinking about install. :) Bad start for ubuntu!
[05:48] <bbird> Can you help me ? I used the network settigs interface to set the ESSID and the wep key, the "DHCP" server doens't reply.
[05:48] <Nerd42> er ... why ?
[05:48] <Nerd42> er no wait
[05:49] <Taime1> grub can be installed to the mbr
[05:49] <Nerd42> its on livecd RIGHT NOW - i was getting the message before running form the hard drive
[05:49] <bbird> In my office, all computers work correctly with that wirelesse network
[05:49] <xmOD> taimel: even if i dont have linux loaded?
[05:49] <Taime1> it doesnt have to be installed on the root partition of your linux hd
[05:49] <mustaukko> Nerd42: It takes long for it to start from cd, because it needs to load a lot more over slower media than from hard disk.
[05:49] <Taime1> absolutely
[05:49] <mustaukko> Nerd42: ok, great!
[05:49] <Taime1> its a bootloader
[05:49] <xmOD> taimel: how how?
[05:50] <Taime1> what live cd are you using?
[05:50] <xmOD> i wanna load it at hd(0,0)
[05:50] <xmOD> ubuntu
[05:50] <mustaukko> Nerd42: It's edgy (6.10) right?
[05:50] <Taime1> doesnt it have an option to reinstall grub?
[05:50] <_rogue780> Jowi, would that send it to a ssh terminal?
[05:50] <smultron> is anyone good with Xorg configuration? I can't get my 1440x900 display to work...
[05:50] <xmOD> no
[05:50] <Crescendo> Is there a way to stream media from Rhythmbox to a shoutcast server?
[05:50] <Nerd42> ok i opened a terminal window
[05:50] <Taime1> does anyone know how to reinstall grub in ubuntu?
[05:50] <Jowi> _rogue780, did it print "test" when you pressed the power button on the remote?
[05:50] <xmOD> taimel: lol
[05:50] <Taime1> yeah yeah
[05:50] <mustaukko> Nerd42: then do a sudo bash and put in your passwd
[05:51] <Jowi> _rogue780, I doubt it
[05:51] <Nerd42> mustakko: no this is 6.06
[05:51] <tsmithe`> is someone being me?
[05:51] <tsmithe`> (not me)
[05:51] <mustaukko> Nerd42: ok
[05:51] <Taime1> ive done it in mepis...
[05:51] <hexidigital> LjL::  thanks for all your help... i *think* my hdds are failing... my ram is OK, as is my video card, and others i could think of replacing
[05:51] <Nerd42> mustaukko: um ... er ... the "LTS" one on the web site
[05:51] <Taime1> there is a really cool option to reinstall grub
[05:51] <mustaukko> Nerd42: lets see..
[05:51] <hamre_> excuse me, i just installed ubuntu on my laptop, i'm trying to compile a program but i get many error messages: www.home.no/hedhnta/paste.txt ... i've tried edited /etc/apt/sources.list and run apt-get install build-essential but it keeps telling me it can't find any packages...
[05:51] <hamre_> can somebody  help?
[05:51] <Nerd42> IF you think i should go with 6.10 i could try that instead
[05:52] <bbird> where can I find some network log..
[05:52] <xmOD> I know this can be done.. it can be done through the terminal, we can install windows loader on the first slot of the MBR..  but HOW???!!!
[05:52] <mustaukko> Nerd42: Well, I took 6.10, and I've lived to tell the story. :)
[05:52] <Nerd42> lets go with what i've got for now
[05:52] <mustaukko> Nerd42: Real life, not much difference. Server's and critical stuff... a lot of difference.
[05:53] <Nerd42> a whole bunch of error messages popped up when i started
[05:53] <Nerd42> i said "dont delete" on all of them
[05:53] <faeryNatsuki> hi again
[05:53] <Taime1> http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Installing-GRUB-natively.html
[05:53] <mustaukko> Nerd42: yeah, the fault is not in lts
[05:53] <Nerd42> ok
[05:53] <giulius> ciao a tutti, qualcuno che mi pu aiutare in italiano?
[05:53] <_rogue780> Jowi, nothing happenes
[05:53] <faeryNatsuki> any suggestion for DVD burner as good as k3b but for gnome?
[05:53] <mustaukko> Nerd42: What kind of errors?
[05:53] <OrT> no :]
[05:53] <Nerd42> i am looking at the terminal window now ...
[05:53] <smultron> i've tried everything to get my display working, but still doesn't work. here's my forum post of the problem http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2038404#post2038404
[05:53] <Taime1> gnome3b?
[05:53] <Jowi> _rogue780, why did you ask if it would echo to ssh?
[05:53] <Taime1> just kidding
[05:53] <Nerd42> er "This applet doesn't work, that applet doesn't work" plus the same ones I pasted before
[05:53] <mustaukko> Nerd42: have you typed 'sudo bash' already?
[05:53] <Nerd42> um 1sec
[05:54] <Nerd42> ok i typed that
[05:54] <faeryNatsuki> gnome3b?
[05:54] <Taime1> i was kidding
[05:54] <_rogue780> I'm sshed into the box, due to lack of keyboard
[05:54] <Nerd42> the prompt changed from a -$ to a -#
[05:54] <Taime1> sorry
[05:54] <faeryNatsuki> :P
[05:54] <mustaukko> Nerd42: ok, those applets that it's talking about are applets that are on the gnome-toolbar.
[05:54] <_rogue780> Jowi, my last was to you
[05:54] <faeryNatsuki> !DVD
[05:54] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[05:54] <Nerd42> which, as a MS-DOS 6.2 user, officially makes my head explode
[05:54] <Sk8aelf> basil:  used vi   still gettin an error
[05:54] <faeryNatsuki> !burner
[05:54] <ubotu> CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, serpentine, graveman Nautilus cd burner (Gnome), gtoaster, xcdroast, cdrecord (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[05:54] <Nerd42> mustaukko: yeah thats what it said
[05:54] <mustaukko> Nerd42: yeah, great. Now you are running the terminal with root (superuser) rights. It's like the administrator in windows.
[05:54] <faeryNatsuki> wich is better?
[05:55] <Nerd42> k ;)
[05:55] <faeryNatsuki> excuse me, which
[05:55] <Nerd42> "sudo bash" - i should remember that command ;)
[05:55] <xmOD> taimel: how do i get that grub promt?
[05:55] <Jowi> _rogue780, ok, I just tried executing irexec from an ssh session and it does not work for me (nothing happens here as well)
[05:55] <SnakeDiver> What's a 'Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block' error mean?
[05:55] <mustaukko> Nerd42: ok, lets go take a look at those logs.. (with sudo, you can run any command you like with root rights.)
[05:55] <Jowi> _rogue780, gotto go. good luck.
[05:55] <Taime1> so, xmod, i hope that grub tutorial at least lhelps you to be able o boot into windows... then you can take it from there...at least you will have an operatin system
[05:55] <Taime1> http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Installing-GRUB-natively.html
[05:55] <_rogue780> Jowi, thanks
[05:56] <mustaukko> Nerd42: type 'cd /var/log'
[05:56] <mustaukko> Nerd42: and then 'ls'
[05:56] <Taime1> piece of crap keyboard
[05:56] <xmOD> taimel: wat does that native environment mean?
[05:56] <mustaukko> Nerd42: ls is the command that lists things. like dir in dos.
[05:56] <Jowi> _rogue780, at least your remote is working according to irw. c u
[05:56] <Nerd42> ok
[05:57] <mustaukko> Nerd42: by the way, you have tab-completion, so when unsure couple of tabs shows you options.
[05:57] <Nerd42> ok i see a buncha folders
[05:57] <mustaukko> Nerd42: and a couple of files too i hope.
[05:57] <mustaukko> namely ones that start with Xorg
[05:58] <giulius> who can help me with my wireless?
[05:58] <Nerd42> "Display all 1865 possibilities? (y or n)" I think thats a bit too much information
[05:58] <Nerd42> er um some of the names are black and some are blue
[05:58] <pike_> xmOD: might try http://sourceforge.net/projects/btmgr/ for a quick fix also
[05:58] <mustaukko> Nerd42: type in 'cat Xorg.* |grep EE'
[05:58] <Nerd42> are the black ones files and the blue ones directories / folders ?
[05:59] <pike_> xmOD: assuming you have a floppy drive
[05:59] <biegl__> hey peoples
[05:59] <Nerd42> see, thats why normal people liek "Somebody's Mom" will never use linux in its current form
[05:59] <xmOD> pike: no floppy drive.. i mean i got one but does'nt work :-(
[05:59] <Unt0uchable> sup ubuntu folks?
[05:59] <Nerd42> there is no way that a normal person would spend time typing in stuff like that which is totally unEnglishlike
[05:59] <Nerd42> anyway :) i did it
[06:00] <Nerd42> it says "system error: last item seen: X"
[06:00] <mustaukko> Nerd42: cat is the command that just prints files to screen. grep is a program that selects stuff from something. in linux you can pipe these together and do amazing stuff.
[06:00] <Nerd42> "Garbled time"
[06:00] <Jowi> _rogue780, found something that does work btw. instead of "echo test &" set it to "touch /home/yourusername/remotepress &". run irexec from ssh. press pwer button. ctrl-c to end irexec and see if the file remotepress is in your homedir. *now* I really need to go
[06:00] <Nerd42> ok
[06:00] <dromer> how do I run a .jar file?
[06:00] <glombool> !sound
[06:00] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin
[06:00] <mustaukko> Nerd42: yeah, I know it's a hard to get hold of, but once mastered, you really don't want to go through all the data without grepping the relevant data fomr it.
[06:01] <Nerd42> its liek "You have no chance to survive make your time"
[06:01] <Vom> Jowi, yey.
[06:01] <smultron> any monitor help? 1440x900 acts very strangely... please don't make me re-install windows :(
[06:01] <mustaukko> Nerd42: type in 'cat Xorg.* |grep EE' WITH CAPITAL EE
[06:01] <_rogue780> Jowi, thanks a bunch
[06:01] <Vom> Now I have ubuntu on a DVD, all backups done and so on :-)
[06:01] <Vom> We're soon ready to roll!

[06:02] <Nerd42> hey wait ... thats the last thing i typed in before
[06:02] <OrT> there's a fluxbuntu?
[06:02] <OrT> is it like lower on resources than xubuntu?
[06:02] <vittorio> i have eth0 as my only network device (and lo). how can i change this to be eth1 (so theres no eth0) ?
[06:02] <Nerd42> it printed out a buncha stuff
[06:02] <fr500> hello

[06:02] <Nerd42> including "Xorg: no such file or directory"
[06:02] <mustaukko> Nerd42: ok, did you type it with correct capitals?
[06:02] <fr500> i installed vmware-server on a headless server (no xserver or anything)
[06:03] <fr500> show can i access it?
[06:03] <Nerd42> Directories! I remember "directories"! I always thought calling them "folders" was stupid
[06:03] <mustaukko> Nerd42: hmm. strange.
[06:03] <Nerd42> yeah
[06:03] <arsentop> anyone recommend a tool for formatting my micro SD card in inbuilt card reader
[06:03] <arsentop> i can access the card ( mountable etc already)
[06:03] <pibarnas> hi folks, I've just installed edgy and spent almost 2 h waiting for upgrading packages... but there are 2 that I can't have upgraded: libc6-i686_2.4-1ubuntu12.2_i386.deb and libc6_2.4-1ubuntu12.2_i386.deb. The error: 403 Forbidden [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80] . Any ideas?!?
[06:03] <xmOD> ok can someone tell me if this'll work for me? Mount windows drive and then install grub on hd0(windows drive)?? will this boot windows for me?
[06:03] <smultron> mustaukko: seen anything like it?
[06:03] <dromer> how do I run a .jar file?
[06:03] <mustaukko> Nerd42: So, type in 'apt-cache policy xserver-xorg'
[06:04] <dan-erik_> Today I have set up a new linux community at http://www.ubuntusociety.org/ if anyone want to join. Not only forum, there is also blog, guestbook, and so on... Need help with people writing articles and publishing content.
[06:04] <datachild> pibarnas; you have the error already, forbidden ip?
[06:04] <dromer> !jar
[06:04] <mustaukko> smultron: yeah, I had one of these issues in the past..
[06:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jar - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:04] <mustaukko> smultron: has it worked for you previously?
[06:04] <pibarnas> datachild nope. it's happening the first time.
[06:04] <mustaukko> smultron: Or is this a fresh install and it just did not work?
[06:04] <datachild> how do i like "make && make install" in fluxbuntu? anyone?
[06:04] <xmOD> pike: tell me if this'll work for me? Mount windows drive and then install grub on hd0(windows drive)?? will this boot windows for me
[06:05] <mustaukko> smultron: because in my case the problem was in the drivers I was using.
[06:05] <tapas> what's an lrm filesystem?
[06:05] <pike_> xmOD: no need to mount but yes you can do like:   grub> root(hd1,0)   <-- this is the partition with ubuntu installed then setup(hd0)  or hd1 whichever hd is setup to boot in your systems bios
[06:05] <nivekz> Hi, there. I have root account and i want to share a folder (including its sub) but those ***-ftpd are too advanced to be secure for me. are there any easy way to share it?
[06:05] <mustaukko> smultron: I had a lcd that went to 1600x1200 and just got measly 1280x1024 of it.
[06:05] <pibarnas> datachild I'd like to install other softwares, but I'm afraid this library lack mess up my system...
[06:05] <smultron> mustaukko: i've only been able to get it working in windows. i've been trying every distro i could download, and none support my card/monitor
[06:06] <mustaukko> Nerd42: What did it tell you?
[06:06] <Nerd42> apt-cache policy xserver-xorg
[06:06] <pike_> xmOD: the recover howto gives a better explanation of that
[06:06] <Nerd42> 1 sec
[06:06] <hamre_> i'm in ubuntu and cannot compile anything. i did an apt-get install linux-kernel-headers but still things won't work.
[06:06] <datachild> yeah, looks weird.. pibarnas
[06:06] <mustaukko> smultron: Which card is that?
[06:06] <Lunar_Lamp> hamre_, did you install build-essential ?
[06:06] <datachild> hamre_, apt-get install g++ ?
[06:06] <pibarnas> datachild It's like a server problem, but I can't find these packages anywhere...
[06:06] <Lunar_Lamp> !build-essential
[06:06] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[06:06] <snail> hamre_: "apt-get install build-essential"
[06:06] <Nerd42> what the crap is xorg anyway? doesn't it have to do with graphics somehow? sounds like a rejected Star Trek plot
[06:06] <mustaukko> smultron: Linux does support many kinds of resolutions, but card drivers vary.
[06:07] <pike_> xmOD: in other words you can install grub to whatever hard driver mbr you wish regardless of which driver ubuntu is on
[06:07] <datachild> maybe they are old as hell?, i've got no idea pibarnas
[06:07] <xmOD> pike: at present i dont have any linux OS on my comp as the linux HD crashed leaving grub in MBR
[06:07] <Nerd42> Invalid operation policy
[06:07] <bitmvnch> is there a new fstab format?
[06:07] <Nerd42> lemme check if i spelled it right
[06:07] <_rogue780> Jowi, I got it working. I found out that openbox had to be the last thing executed. go figure... anyway I hope you get this messag
[06:07] <smultron> mustaukko: some integrated intel one... old machine
[06:07] <mustaukko> smultron: if you do a 'lspci' what does it tell you?
[06:07] <_rogue780> e
[06:07] <mustaukko> smultron: intels should be supported.. let me check
[06:07] <Nerd42> oh
[06:07] <pibarnas> datachild It seems they're too new...
[06:07] <hamre_> snail: it says something about there not being any installation candidate for that package
[06:07] <Nerd42> I did it wrong before
[06:08] <barra> so , I updated dapper to edgy, everything seems fine , except for this one issue, if I close the lid on my laptop and it supends, when I open the lid again my wireless doesn't reconnect. any ideass??
[06:08] <frogzoo> bitmvnch: yes, it's same as the old format, but with UUIDs instead of device names
[06:08] <Nerd42> my "C" key is messed up
[06:08] <hamre_> i don't know the exact meaning i'm using a norwegian locale
[06:08] <datachild> pibarnas, but every other package works?
[06:08] <_rogue780> how do I become an editor of the wiki?
[06:08] <xmOD> pike: I just need a little help.. jus tell me how i can install grub on hd0 to boot windows? or how can i install the windows bootloader back into MBR??? the second option is preferred by me if u can help
[06:08] <bitmvnch> frogzoo: where do the UUIDs come from?
[06:08] <pibarnas> datachild well, I can't see problems...
[06:08] <frogzoo> bitmvnch: it's part of the label
[06:08] <Nerd42> OK it says "M Unable to locate package server - M Unable to locate package xorg
[06:08] <mustaukko> smultron: I got it.. you need a 915package.
[06:08] <hamre_> snail?
[06:08] <snail> hamre_: can you install anything? maybe
[06:08] <mustaukko> smultron: I got
[06:09] <datachild> i have no idea, you'll have to ask anyone who knows better.. sorry pibarnas
[06:09] <mustaukko> smultron: http://www.math.dartmouth.edu/~sarunas/D620F6.html
[06:09] <frogzoo> bitmvnch: blkid
[06:09] <mustaukko> smultron: have you tried that?
[06:09] <snail> hamre_: maybe the problem is that the system can't connect to the network to download and install packages?
[06:09] <xmOD> please help me anyone who has experience with grub.. i really need help
[06:09] <pibarnas> datachild thank you for your patience! :)
[06:09] <datachild> No problem :)
[06:09] <hamre_> snail: nope, i'm running a dist-upgrade right now
[06:09] <hamre_> so it works
[06:09] <mustaukko> Nerd42: 'apt-cache policy xserver-xorg' with a DASH
[06:10] <snail> hamre_: and it's installing what kinds of packages? just one example will do
[06:10] <Nerd42> oh crap! youre right! sorry!!
[06:10] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: you need to be able to boot windows?
[06:10] <hamre_> firefox
[06:10] <hamre_> hehe
[06:10] <xmOD> yeah
[06:10] <vittorio> i have eth0 as my only network device. how can i change this to be eth1 (so theres no eth0) ?
[06:10] <mustaukko> Nerd42: No problem. :) I'd paste you some of my results, but it's not in english so...
[06:10] <smultron> mustaukko: i don't think so
[06:10] <Nerd42> "Unable to locate package "server-xorg"
[06:10] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: and you already have grub installed so as to boot linux, right?
[06:10] <xmOD> please help as linux hd crashed and i cant boot anymore
[06:11] <rikstah> vittorio, why do you want to do that
[06:11] <snail> hamre_: ok. first wait until that has finished, then try the apt-get command from before
[06:11] <mustaukko> Nerd42: 'apt-cache policy xserver-xorg'  and not with a xserver-xorg
[06:11] <snail> hamre_: you can't run two at once
[06:11] <mustaukko> Nerd42: 'apt-cache policy xserver-xorg'  with a x that is. :)
[06:11] <xmOD> i need to somehow install windows bootloader into MBR..
[06:11] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: ok well, if you install grub to the windows drive's MBR...
[06:11] <Nerd42> ok
[06:11] <smultron> mustaukko: though i've tried manually editing the 915resolution default file, if that's what this does
[06:11] <mustaukko> smultron: So, that could solve it..
[06:11] <kamok> #jojn chelm
[06:11] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: grub-install (hd0)
[06:11] <xmOD> ok fine.. but will it autoboot windows?
[06:11] <vittorio> rikstah, a commercial program needs eth1
[06:11] <Nerd42> its doing stuff
[06:11] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: no.
[06:11] <Nerd42> ok here it goes
[06:11] <xmOD> then?
[06:12] <rikstah> vittorio, and you cannot change the config?
[06:12] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: yeah, this is the difficult part...
[06:12] <netpython> hi
[06:12] <vittorio> rikstah, no way
[06:12] <rikstah> vittorio, i think when you modprobe the module, you can give it a parameter
[06:12] <Nerd42> ok thers like five lines of stuff
[06:12] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: in the short term, if you write down what you will need to type in once it loads grub, you can do that
[06:12] <mustaukko> smultron: could you run the lspci command and tell what it says?
[06:12] <Nerd42> it says it installed somethin and has this version table thing
[06:12] <pike_> xmOD: to repair windows mbr (dont do it! stick with linux) boot to windows or from windows boot disk type "fdisk /mbr" i think is right
[06:12] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: otherwise, your best option is to install linux somewhere again
[06:12] <vittorio> rikstah, shouldnt there be a modprobe.conf somewhere?
[06:12] <Nerd42> which part of that is important or should i type up the whole hting?
[06:12] <tapas> what does lrm stand for?
[06:12] <xmOD> write wat down?
[06:12] <lovloss> !pastebin
[06:12] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[06:13] <mustaukko> Nerd42: the one with three stars is the line that you've installed.
[06:13] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: the grub commands to load windows
[06:13] <smultron> mustaukko: well, actually I'm in SuSE right now :P another failed attempt to get it working
[06:13] <xmOD> well wat are those?
[06:13] <mustaukko> Nerd42: Mine is *** 1:7.1.1ubuntu6.2 0
[06:13] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: it's like.... "root (hd0,1)" "chainloader +1" "boot"
[06:13] <rikstah> vittorio, modules.conf maybe
[06:13] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: something like that... i can look it up to make sure
[06:13] <xmOD> will i need to use them everytime i wanna boot windows at startup?
[06:13] <mustaukko> smultron: on the same computer though?
[06:13] <smultron> mustaukko: yes
[06:13] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: it has something to do with what drive/partition windows is on
[06:14] <mustaukko> smultron: I'd like to know the model, so suse has 'lspci' too.
[06:14] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: yes, if all you do is install grub to the MBR
[06:14] <smultron> mustaukko: model of what?
[06:14] <mustaukko> smultron: try 'lspci | grep VGA'
[06:14] <xmOD> i can just write that option to grub permanently so that i jus select the option and grub loads windows?
[06:15] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: your best option is to run the Ubuntu livecd (is that what you're doing already?) and do the install, resizing your windows partition down like 5gb at the end, and install ubuntu... that will put grub back in and autodetect/configure windows booting as well
[06:15] <smultron> mustaukko: lspci command not found
[06:15] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: read: best == easiest
[06:15] <ubuntulive> sudo lspci
[06:15] <mustaukko> so, suse has yast2 right?
[06:15] <smultron> yeah
[06:15] <mustaukko> smultron: try 'sudo lspci | grep VGA'
[06:15] <ubuntulive> Can someone help me install Grub from the LiveCD ?
[06:16] <ubuntulive> this is what i get
[06:16] <smultron> command still not found
[06:16] <ubuntulive> "ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo grub-install /dev/sda
[06:16] <xmOD> well am not really comfortable with that as if something goes wrong then really valuable data will be lost? no other way? cant u tell me how to load windows bootloader into MBR?
[06:16] <ubuntulive> Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[06:16] <ubuntulive> "
[06:16] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: without a boot partition for grub to read data from, I have no idea how to give grub permanent configuration data :( all I can guarentee is that you'll get a grub command prompt, from which you could boot
[06:16] <mustaukko> smultron: lets see, might be that you have to install it. wait I'll look it up
[06:16] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: well, like someone said earlier, "fdisk /mbr" should do it, if you can get back to windows once
[06:16] <smultron> mustaukko: thank you
[06:16] <xmOD> huh?
[06:17] <xmOD> i din get u on that?
[06:17] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: open a command prompt in windows and type "fdisk /mbr"
[06:17] <mustaukko> smultron: it's called pciutils the package that you should install.
[06:17] <xmOD> ok then?
[06:17] <rm_you|somewhere> yes.
[06:17] <xmOD> it'll surely install windows in MBR?
[06:17] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: that should fix it (or so i've heard)
[06:17] <netpython> didn't know windows has fdisk
[06:18] <mustaukko> Nerd42: So, what was the version installed?
[06:18] <smultron> mustaukko: ok
[06:18] <xmOD> i need to know the exact command in windows so i can try it
[06:18] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: that would be it
[06:18] <rm_you|somewhere> xmOD: "fdisk /mbr"
[06:18] <xmOD> hmm.. ok lemm try to boot
[06:18] <grndslm> anybody know of a decent graphical debugger for linux??  like insight or ddd?  maybe even an IDE if it was better than kdevelop, etc....
[06:18] <xmOD> be right back
[06:18] <mustaukko> Nerd42: And if you type '/etc/init.d/gdm stop' (stop the graphical gui for logging in)..
[06:19] <mustaukko> Nerd42: and try to log in without it from console using 'startx'
[06:19] <mustaukko> Nerd42: what does it say?
[06:19] <ubuntulive> Here I post my problem about Grub: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-newbie/83163-pc-bsd-ruined.html
[06:21] <Nerd42> 1second
[06:21] <Nerd42> I'm sorry - i have several different things ogng on at once here
[06:21] <ubuntulive> Nerd42: to whom are you speaking... ?
[06:21] <Nerd42> its 7.0.0-0ubuntu45
[06:22] <Nerd42> mustaukko
[06:22] <lftl> so... is there a preferred way to get subversion 1.4.x installed on edgy?
[06:22] <mustaukko> Nerd42: ok.. what about the other commands?
[06:22] <mustaukko> Nerd42: And if you type '/etc/init.d/gdm stop' (stop the graphical gui for logging in)..
[06:22] <giulius> netgear wpn111 ubuntu 6.10 crash who can help me?
[06:22] <mustaukko> Nerd42: and try to log in without it from console using 'startx'
[06:23] <Nerd42> ok
[06:23] <Nerd42> i'm tryin that now
[06:23] <hamre_> what do i need to do to be able to compile apps in ubuntu?
[06:23] <ubuntulive> build-essential
[06:23] <hamre_> it can't install it
[06:23] <ubuntulive> hamre_: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[06:24] <hume> is there any way in ubuntu to convert an avi film to DVD format (or VCD) to make it viewable on TV?
[06:24] <ubuntulive> and a c compiler
[06:24] <hamre_> it says there's no installation candidate
[06:24] <ar2k7> is it hard to remaster the ubuntu livecd??
[06:24] <ubuntulive> hamre_: enable your universal repositories in /etc/apt/sources.lst
[06:24] <Nerd42> ok it said "Stopping GNOME display manager
[06:24] <hamre_> wait
[06:24] <ubuntulive> hume: try k9copy
[06:25] <Nerd42> and then i typed "startx
[06:25] <Nerd42> er, it wont let me do that i guess ... i hav eto restart the computer don it
[06:25] <smultron> mustaukko: no luck with installing 'lspci'... i could just re-install ubuntu quickly if you think it would be fixable from there....
[06:25] <JNeverMind> good morning all
[06:25] <Nerd42> oops
[06:25] <Nerd42> typos
[06:25] <hamre_> ubuntulive: this is my sources.list: http://paste.husk.org/7575
[06:25] <xmOD> ok am INTO WINDOWS somehow
[06:25] <mustaukko> Nerd42: no, just wait a sec
[06:25] <JNeverMind> is there a documented way to slipstream ubuntu updates into my 6.06 install cd ?
[06:26] <mustaukko> smultron: it should well be.
[06:26] <ubuntulive> hamre_: go to the ubuntu wiki and add the universal repositories
[06:26] <mustaukko> smultron: but wait a minute first.
[06:26] <xmOD> the fdisk /mbr does'nt work as fdisk is not a recognized command
[06:26] <hexidigital> should i be aware of any problems i will encounter by doing a fsck -f on a mounted drive?
[06:26] <smultron> mustaukko: ok
[06:26] <mustaukko> smultron: are you in terminal?
[06:26] <ubuntulive> hamre_: do you have Dapper Drake or edgy ?
[06:26] <smultron> mustaukko: yes
[06:26] <hamre_> edgy i think
[06:26] <hamre_> whatever the latest is
[06:26] <hamre_> i installed it just now
[06:26] <mustaukko> Nerd42: so what did startx tell you?
[06:26] <Jowi> _rogue780, "touch" worked with the power btn?
[06:26] <hamre_> and my sources.list (the one in that paste i gave you) i got off the ubuntu wiki
[06:26] <snail> xmOD: if you want to install the MS windows boot loader into the MBR, isn't that a windows issue? have you tried the windows channels?
[06:27] <ubuntulive> hamre_: hold on let me try and find the edgy repos for you then
[06:27] <CodeWarrior_> I have had problems about xinerama and opengl, my two gpus (nvidia and 3dfx) are configured fine, but I can't get opengl running, any tip ? anybody uses similar solution ?
[06:27] <mustaukko> smultron: so go root (either with su or sudo, what ever is your flavour)
[06:27] <hamre_> thanks a lot man!
[06:27] <smultron> mustaukko: ok
[06:27] <xmOD> snail.. its actually a linux issue but loading the windows bootloader is one option to solve the prob
[06:27] <mustaukko> Nerd42: does this look like your issue? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/control-center/+bug/61381
[06:28] <mustaukko> smultron: type  lspci now
[06:28] <GNeRaL> helo
[06:28] <mustaukko> smultron: it's really common program. usually installed from get go.
[06:28] <GNeRaL> how to fix: "short read in buffer_copy (backend dpkg-deb during `./usr/bin/nmblookup')"
[06:28] <smultron> mustaukko: oh, there it goes. printed a lot of stuff
[06:29] <snail> xmOD: if you don't explain the problem, and I'm not telepathic, how can i help you fix it?
[06:29] <mustaukko> smultron: type 'lspci|grep VGA'
[06:29] <mustaukko> Nerd42: They have a fix for it in there
[06:29] <smultron> mustaukko: gave me the chipset name
[06:30] <Lunar_Lamp> The volume control in ubuntu controls the wrong volume by default (it controls the wrong sound card, my laptops inbuilt one rather than the usb one). How do I alter this?
[06:30] <mustaukko> smultron: paste it here
[06:30] <mustaukko> Nerd42: check out message:  Re: gnome-settings-daemon crashes at login   from Markus Olausson  at 2006-11-14 12:57:48 UTC
[06:30] <hamre_> any luck there ubuntulive
[06:30] <ubuntulive> hamre_: these are mine, add them but replace dapper with whatever version of ubuntu you have
[06:30] <ubuntulive> # deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper universe
[06:30] <ubuntulive> # deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper universe
[06:30] <gb_> hi
[06:30] <hamre_> cool
[06:30] <hamre_> i will, thanks
[06:30] <ubuntulive> and of course remove the '#' infront
[06:30] <mustaukko> Nerd42: if this looks like your problem, then let's fix it like they suggest.
[06:30] <smultron> mustuakko: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL/GE
[06:30] <ar2k7> reconstructor.. im impressed
[06:31] <Nerd42> um
[06:31] <Nerd42> i read that
[06:31] <Nerd42> it looks ... simlar
[06:31] <Nerd42> though not the exact same error message
[06:31] <hamre_> ubuntulive: still nothing :/
[06:31] <Nerd42> Is there an OS i could put on here that would just WORK ?
[06:31] <Nerd42> lol
[06:31] <xmOD> snail: actually GRUB was loaded on my MBR and eveytime my comp booted, GRUB helped me boot linux/windows.. now the linux HD crashed and i cant boot into any of the OS'es anymore as MBR cant find GRUB.. so i was thinking if someone can help me install windows bootloader back into MBR so i can boot windows while my linux hd is repaired
[06:32] <K1GPL> is there an im client for ubuntu which will allow webcam video?
[06:32] <Nerd42> it doesnt have to have a buncha features really
[06:32] <ubuntulive> hamre_: do this
[06:32] <ubuntulive> sudo apt-get update
[06:32] <ubuntulive> and then try it
[06:32] <hamre_> i've done that
[06:32] <hamre_> dist-update too
[06:32] <Nerd42> I don't understand 85% of what they're talking about on that page you linked to
[06:32] <netpython> xmOD, boot from the windows CD and choose repair
[06:32] <JNeverMind> k1gpl what about amsn ?
[06:32] <snail> xmOD: the approach I'd take would be to boot the install disk and run grub from that, which should automagically detect the windows partition
[06:32] <gb_> xmOD,  can i help?
[06:33] <K1GPL> amsn?  i dunno, i will try it
[06:33] <xmOD> gb: sure
[06:33] <mustaukko> smultron: it's a laptop?
[06:33] <hamre_> or wait
[06:33] <gb_> xmOD,  r u on xp?
[06:33] <ubuntulive> hamre_: then i dnt know, search google for repositories for ur distro
[06:33] <xmOD> gb: yes at the moment
[06:33] <smultron> mustaukko: no, old gateway tower
[06:33] <hamre_> thanks man
[06:33] <hamre_> thanks a lot :D
[06:33] <mustaukko> Nerd42: I'd suggest 6.10 ubuntu.
[06:33] <gb_> xmOD,  insert cd in drive and bootup in recovery console mode of xp
[06:33] <gb_> ok?
[06:34] <mustaukko> smultron: So you can update it then.. but let's see what can be done.
[06:34] <hamre_> ubuntulive: it worked!!!! thanks an
[06:34] <hamre_> * man
[06:34] <gb_> type there fixmbr to fix xp's mbr
[06:34] <Nerd42> http://uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu LOL LOL LOL
[06:34] <Nerd42> ok
[06:34] <trichalo> /last
[06:34] <Nerd42> i'll DL 6.10 ubuntu
[06:34] <trichalo> hmm
[06:34] <xmOD> gb: yeah .. go on
[06:34] <ubuntulive> hamre_: no prob
[06:34] <jitsu> hi, my
[06:34] <gb_> that si all u gotta do
[06:34] <jitsu> oops
[06:34] <gb_> xp will be fixed
[06:34] <gb_> u will be able to boot into it
[06:34] <K1GPL> does amsn require you to register with msn?
[06:35] <gb_> kgpl hotmail account will work
[06:35] <xmOD> gb: by recovery console u mean the blue screen thingy that we get when xp disk boots?
[06:35] <gb_> xmOD,  nope sir
[06:35] <xmOD> umm.. then
[06:35] <smultron> mustaukko: yeah, i was thinking a new graphics would fix it, but it'd be nice if it just worked as is...
[06:35] <gb_> when u boot from xp cd, it ask u to press enter to start setup or press r to enter recovery mode
[06:36] <jitsu> my keybord isn't working. nywy. i bought  new usb keybord, since my computer is refusing to boot when the ps2 one is plugged in... but when i try to boot ubuntu, it sys something bout tty. ny ide how i cn fix it with the live cd/
[06:36] <gb_> u press r to enter recovery mode
[06:36] <rm_you|inclass> woo, plugins-extra finally built
[06:36] <xmOD> and then?
[06:36] <mustaukko> smultron: Yeah.
[06:36] <netpython> xmOD, and than enter fixmbr
[06:36] <gb_> it will detect ur xp partition and ask the admin password for it
[06:36] <gb_> once pass. is given
[06:36] <gb_> type fixmbr command
[06:36] <mustaukko> smultron: Have you tried the 855resolution?
[06:36] <gb_> and ur xp mbr will be back on
[06:36] <smultron> mustaukko: only the 915
[06:36] <Nerd42> i am really sick of tweaking this thing
[06:37] <mustaukko> smultron: Do you have latest intel drivers?
[06:37] <mustaukko> smultron: They are said to be here: http://support.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/CS-010512.htm
[06:37] <gb_> xmOD,  good luck
[06:37] <xmOD> am not really sure my windows disk gives the recovery option, so before rebooting into the disk can i try something while am on windows right now as it was really hard to boot into windows
[06:37] <_rogue780> Jowi, after I rearranged my script so openbox is last it worked
[06:37] <Nerd42> as much as i love tinkering with computers, this is really 1. out of my leauge and 2. never going to work perminantly if it requires this much tweaking
[06:38] <mustaukko> Nerd42: Hey, let's try it out, since it's a simple tweak.
[06:38] <gb_> ok
[06:38] <davmor2> In irc is there a way to switch off the messages about people logging on and off?
[06:38] <davmor2> I'm using gaim
[06:38] <timo> gd he need all the luck he can get
[06:38] <smultron> mustuakko: they were only available via git... i didn't know how do obtain them that way
[06:39] <JNeverMind> google is not pulling through for me here guys, do you know of a documented way to 'slipstream' my 6.06 cd with the updates ?
[06:39] <xmOD> gb: any ideas?
[06:39] <NthDegree> davmor2m there are 2 ways
[06:39] <smultron> musaukko: see: http://www.intellinuxgraphics.org/download.html
[06:39] <jitsu> ok, different uestion. this keybord isn't working well in ubuntu, ny ide how to fix it/ for exmple, the letter before b in the lphbet isn't coming out t ll
[06:39] <hamre_> how do i set my wireless nic into monitor mode? the command wlanconfig isn't available in ubuntu...
[06:39] <mustaukko> Nerd42: in terminal (if you are still there...) write: 'sudo chmod 644 /etc/libnss-ldap.conf'
[06:39] <ubuntulive> can someone help me please!
[06:39] <gb_> from within xp it would be hard
[06:39] <NthDegree> davmor2m: on X-Chat (NOT GNOME) you can alter text events
[06:39] <gb_> but there is a way
[06:39] <CodeWarrior_> anybody here uses xinerama ?
[06:39] <ubuntulive> i need to re-install grub
[06:39] <gb_> do u have a floppy drive there
[06:39] <xmOD> go on..
[06:39] <NthDegree> davmor2m: or you can script it out
[06:39] <xmOD> uh no
[06:39] <xmOD> lol
[06:39] <xmOD> not working
[06:40] <gb_> ouch :(
[06:40] <mustaukko> Nerd42: Nah, it's just to get you going. Once you get the hang of it, it just works.
[06:40] <xmOD> we cant do things with DOS?
[06:40] <davmor2> nthdegree thanks
[06:40] <mustaukko> Nerd42: But yeah, I remember that it was a really steep learning curve.
[06:40] <NthDegree> yeep
[06:40] <NthDegree> xmOD, DOS is ANCIENT
[06:40] <gb_> nada it will work in rcovery mode with xp cd in
[06:40] <mustaukko> Nerd42: such a different world of computing.
[06:41] <gb_> but there is 1 more thing u cna do
[06:41] <gb_> :)
[06:41] <bronze_0_1> NthDegree: So is Unix. :)
[06:41] <gb_> y not install linux that u had back on
[06:41] <Nerd42> mustaukko, i will have to do all this stuff on every computer i install ubuntu  on?
[06:41] <gb_> reinstall it boot loader
[06:41] <Nerd42> this shouldn't be happening
[06:41] <gb_> boot win from there
[06:41] <mustaukko> smultron: 855 could work well for you
[06:41] <rance> is there a way to tell in a script if a package is installed?
[06:41] <Nerd42> MS-DOS 6.2 rules. Always has, always does.
[06:41] <mustaukko> Nerd42: No.
[06:41] <netpython> boot win and stay away from linux :-)
[06:41] <xmOD> i need to get back my linux drive for that which will take some time
[06:41] <bronze_0_1> rance - use theapt commands and test
[06:41] <NthDegree> bronze_0_1, yeah and who uses ancient UNIX?  *BSD && GNU/Linux FTW!!!
[06:41] <mustaukko> Nerd42: It's not that hard, really. Usually it's automatic.
[06:42] <gb_> which linux u got there?
[06:42] <bronze_0_1> NthDegree: Point being age does not confer good or bad upon software. :-)
[06:42] <xmOD> ok ok.. go over the recovery console method again.. can u?
[06:42] <xmOD> ubuntu
[06:42] <timo> install linux to get your mbr back
[06:42] <Nerd42> MS-DOS rules for three reasons: 1.  2. It has an awesome selection of really cool games that are easy to install and run and 3. There is no "shut down" command - if you're at the command prompt, you can just flip the switch and BOOM - its off.
[06:42] <gb_> then reinstall grun for ubuntu
[06:42] <gb_> add win to grub
[06:42] <gb_> :)
[06:43] <xmOD> for tat i need to get my HD back.. thats wat i had done earlier
[06:43] <ubuntulive> i cant install grub
[06:43] <ubuntulive> from livecd
[06:43] <netpython> Nerd42, and it runs your games
[06:43] <ubuntulive> i installed pc-bsd and now i cant boot back into ubuntu
[06:43] <bronze_0_1> Biggest problem with DOS: People think its OK to to: "just flip the switch and BOOM - its off."
[06:43] <bauer77> MSdos, wasnt that the first virus ever invented?
[06:43] <bauer77> lol
[06:43] <snail> Nerd42: that assumes you're not using the early disks that weren't self parking
[06:43] <gb_> Ubugtu,live why?
[06:43] <mustaukko> Nerd42: Those things apply for all operating systems that are slim. And remember that msdos is really old and does not support multitasking.. :)
[06:43] <ubuntulive> and sudo grub-install /dev/sda doesnt work either
[06:43] <Nerd42> yeah i kno
[06:43] <xmOD> gb, can u go over the recovery console method again?
[06:44] <gb_> xmOD,  ok
[06:44] <gb_> insert cd and boot from it
[06:44] <Nerd42> bronze_0_1 what makes you say that?
[06:44] <mustaukko> Nerd42: but hey, do you want to try it out?
[06:44] <Nerd42> isnt that what you're supposed to do?
[06:44] <Nerd42> in dos?
[06:44] <smultron> mustaukko: maybe i'll just go back to windows until (if) i get a new graphics card. i've been banging my head for 2 weeks trying to get this monitor working :P
[06:44] <gb_> press r to enter recovery mode, enter admin passy when asked
[06:44] <gb_> enter fixmbr
[06:44] <Nerd42> want ot try out what mustaukko ?
[06:44] <gb_> after it is done , reboot
[06:44] <mustaukko> Nerd42: fix for your error message
[06:44] <xmOD> ok am gonna try that now
[06:44] <NthDegree> bronze_0_1:  RECOVER C:\
[06:44] <NthDegree> *wink*
[06:44] <bronze_0_1> :-)
[06:45] <ubuntulive> aaaarrrrrrr plz help some1
[06:45] <mustaukko> smultron: Well, I'd give 855 a go if you've not tried it already.
[06:45] <Nerd42> what ?
[06:45] <mustaukko> smultron: It's designed for older chipset than 915
[06:45] <Nerd42> mustaukko: want ot try what out ?
[06:45] <gb_> Ubugtu, live hi
[06:45] <smultron> mustaukko: alright
[06:45] <NthDegree> and NOT being able to alter hidden and system attribs in like the first 4 versions of DOS
[06:45] <NthDegree> that sucked
[06:45] <gb_> did u mount ur partion first and then chroot it?
[06:45] <ubuntulive> gb_: Could I send you a private message and explain my problem maybe ?
[06:45] <mustaukko> smultron: and the designer said that he made it in order to get 1440x900 to work. :)
[06:45] <ubuntulive> this chat is going too fast for me
[06:45] <gb_> ok go ahead plz
[06:45] <hamre_> has anybody managed installing madwifi-ng? how is it done? apt-get install madwifi / apt-get install madwifi-ng doesn't work...
[06:46] <Nerd42> ubuntulive - yeah me too i think i missed something important
[06:46] <Nerd42> and also i am having terrible lag probs
[06:46] <smultron> mustuakko: well, technicially i got it running in 1440x900, it just had repeating pixels on the right and bottom
[06:46] <timo> better off just installing linux
[06:46] <rapid> hamre_, I installed it through CVS. from memory.
[06:46] <mustaukko> Nerd42: fix for your error
[06:46] <hamre_> i see i see

[06:48] <ubuntulive> gb_: i sent you like 10 already
[06:48] <Nerd42> Do i boot to the cd or to the hard drive ?
[06:48] <smultron> mustaukko: if i do get a graphics card, any suggestions for a low-end linux compatible one?
[06:49] <gb_> ubuntulive,  join #fixmbr
[06:49] <ubuntulive> gb_: Ok could you pm me then maybe since this is not working from this side...

I found an utility "Storage Device Manager" (command "pysdm"), but it isn't so friendly like Disks (my friend needs something user-friendly for easy disks managing). Can you help me?

[06:57] <Lyco|Ubuntu> I had heard that in the nvidia drivers for linux, there was an easy, no command line to set up twinview/dual monitors - is this true?
[06:57] <aalhamad> i have an image scanned... and there is a text on it that i want to erase. I selected it my color but i can't remove it.. (im using gimp)

[06:58] <Sikh> first copy of Ubuntu Worked
[06:59] <LjL> jenda: hm it works for me if you write to it as root. i guess it's just a matter of mounting it with the right options (not that i can ever remember what they are)
[06:59] <Sikh> and it was 6.06 so i burned another copy for text purposes
[06:59] <Sikh> when i run it
[06:59] <kelsin> HairyDude: yeah, just use the link I sent, just requires adding two lines to /etc/apt/sources.list, adding his gpg key and then installing the emacs.snapshot-gtk package, ask me if you need help with any ot those steps

[07:00] <Sikh> i even used Wipedisk to do 3 passes so i can reformat my computer and try Ubuntu that way and it doesnt work
[07:00] <aalhamad> sikh i dont think there is something wrong with your hardware..
[07:01] <oolon> kikabola: it's partioned
[07:01] <kikabola> thx
[07:01] <Sikh> ok. because it goes to Configuing X on Ubuntu 6.06 and then goes to where it Loads the Drivers and Crashes
[07:01] <JNeverMind> well if you have the correct linux driver loaded it should work too unless youve found others with your prob
[07:01] <oolon> kikabola: it's partitioned*
[07:01] <Sikh> i took pictures of it if you want to understand better.
[07:01] <aalhamad> sorry Sikh .. i dont think i can help.. somebody else can help u..
[07:01] <smultron> i haven't

[07:02] <jenda> LjL: it seems that it fails to mount altogether, though.
[07:02] <netpython> kikabola, you have to partition in order to have a swap,so logically..
[07:02] <Sikh> o. it worked for me first time few weeks ago
[07:02] <sedrake> Anyone know what expression is needed to change window title of a program with Devils Pie in gnome?

[07:03] <kikabola> sikh, does it have to be a live cd or could you install it using the alternate?
[07:04] <Sikh> i havent tryed alternate
[07:04] <Sikh> should i?
[07:04] <jenda> LjL: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/mapper/usbkey, missing codepage or other error
[07:04] <Sikh> i was thinking about going that route, but wasnt sure.
[07:04] <kikabola> i dont know that it will work but that is what i am trying when i had a problem with live cd
[07:04] <Sikh> did it work?
[07:04] <HairyDude> still looks ugly... probably just needs customizing
[07:04] <kikabola> dont know yet
[07:04] <Sikh> what is alternate install? does it just start instattion?
[07:04] <Sikh> installation.
[07:05] <kikabola> it is a text installer
[07:05] <Sikh> ok, in what bases?
[07:05] <HairyDude> oh, you have to fiddle with .Xresources?
[07:05] <Sikh> like Command Text, or Text Prompt

[07:05] <Sikh> like it tells you if its installing or configuring X like Live CD Ubuntu 6.06

[07:27] <sharperguy> gb_, like i said, its installed, I just need to know how to type it
[07:27] <rebz> it doesnt seem to be able to vnc to my mac mini
[07:27] <ProN00b> Ha1, c/c++, perl, even ruby (if you like a language because of its "fancyness" factor) are better than python, also, try a different keyboard layout...
[07:27] <rebz> but i can vnc on other computers to it
[07:27] <HairyDude> kelsin: that's right
[07:27] <netzen> I am trying to install pengaol and I get a lot of errors
[07:27] <gb_> :(
[07:27] <Sikh> Python is better then RUBY
[07:27] <Sikh> Perl is good so is C/C++ C#, Java
[07:28] <HairyDude> netzen: sorry, I wasn't trying to answer your question
[07:28] <Ha1> Ive done the whole keyboard setting fiddling with, ProN00b. I need specific instructions
[07:28] <netzen> np
[07:28] <HairyDude> oh ffs
[07:28] <Ha1> Can you help me at all, ProN00b? With specifics... random fiddling didnt work too well
[07:28] <jobo> I have a strange problem. I'm trying to setup my internet connection from my ubuntu machine. I want it to use my public static ip. I used /etc/network/interfaces to configure my device. I have checked the configurations over and over again and everything is correctly configured. When I do a ifup eth0 I get: "SIOCSIFNETMASK invalid argument" and it fails. Then I do a ifconfig and sees that the netmask is completly wrong: <IP_ADDRESS>. Any ideas?
[07:28] <master_tux> dude
[07:28] <sharperguy> argh
[07:29] <ProN00b> Ha1, well, did you find the place where you can switch keyboard layouts ? which one do you currently use ?
[07:29] <gb_> jobo,  hi
[07:29] <sharperguy> zomg
[07:29] <kelsin> jobo: have you typed "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" to reload those configs?
[07:30] <erUSUL> jobo: can you post the interfaces file to a pastebin?
[07:30] <kelsin> jobo: nevermind, you just stated you called ifup eth0
[07:31] <jobo> kelsin yeah, networking restart gives me as expected the same error
[07:31] <ProN00b> Sikh, you can't regard all of those languages as good... c#, java are sucky simply because they are inferior implementations of c++... (python and ruby are just fancy good for nothing scripting languages)
[07:31] <HairyDude> aah, programming language holy wars :)
