[08:39] <pollywog> ja Linux Journal has some articles on SSH and I think one that might be of help to you.  You can use the search engine on their site and it is one of the first articles when you search for openssh
[08:39] <Asc> how di I install Java into Firefox with ubuntu ?
[08:39] <mnk0> gma but for the actual deployment i'll need the 'cvs commands'
[08:39] <gma> mnk0: cvs export -r HEAD module
[08:39] <mnk0> gma ahh k
[08:39] <Polygon89> Asc, one sec let me get the page
[08:39] <stefg> !java | Asc
[08:39] <ubotu> Asc: 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
[08:39] <JosefK> Asc: if you're using Sun Java from the repositories, installing the sun-java5-plugin package and restarting firefox is enough
[08:39] <gma> mnk0: by default the files get put in a local dir called 'name-of-module'. you can change that, like this:
[08:39] <pollywog> ja: just don't go getting into trouble with the info contained therein
[08:39] <whileimhere> I want to have a task list that is associated with the time/date on the panel. Is there one that is not built into the Evolution program?
[08:39] <gma> mnk0: cvs export -r HEAD -d /path/to/deployed/version module-name
[08:40] <ja> pollywog: don't worry about it. thanks :)
[08:40] <mnk0> gma; what is the cvs export for, grabbing the latest copy from repo ?
[08:40] <Asc> JosefK: ok, yes i've downloaded the file to my desktop, but how di I install it ?
[08:40] <gma> mnk0: export gets a copy from the repo, only it doesn't include all CVS's cruft in the results (as you have in your working copy)
[08:40] <gma> mnk0: so it's designed for deployment, basically
[08:40] <fouadbajwa> hi, needed some information on disk partitioning, what is the minimum and maximum sizes for the following:
[08:40] <fouadbajwa> swap
[08:40] <fouadbajwa> /
[08:40] <fouadbajwa> /boot
[08:40] <fouadbajwa> /home
[08:40] <fouadbajwa> /usr
[08:41] <fouadbajwa> /var
[08:41] <stefg> whileimhere: the gnome clock panel applet has a rudimentary function for that itself
[08:41] <mnk0> gma ahhh ok
[08:41] <gma> mnk0: if you want to get a copy to work on, use co instead of export
[08:41] <Polygon89> Asc, follow the instructions on this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java#head-f4267cc37a197ccf46397cc58ff0944838741956
[08:41] <Polygon89> easier =P
[08:41] <stefg> !paste | fouadbajwa
[08:41] <gma> mnk0: similar, but not the same
[08:41] <ubotu> fouadbajwa: paste 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)
[08:41] <JosefK> Asc: no, no need to download.  'sudo aptitude install sun-java5-plugin'
[08:41] <mnk0> gma ohhk, thankx for the advice, that makes so much sense now
[08:41] <needinfo> Have Xubuntu. I can ping the router, myself, and the second computer on the router, but not anything on the net. The resolv.conf has both DNS numbers correct. This system was working before. I am not sure what I did to kill it. What do I check next?
[08:41] <Shaba1> Hey any of you ever use partition logc
[08:41] <d03boy> anyone know how to tell if my wireless hardware is turned on in my laptop? ndiswrapper is running fine. it detects hardware, but it cant pick up any networks
[08:41] <Paulus> fouadbajwa: swap: 2x your RAM; I wouldn't split /, if you dont have a specific reason; then 10 for all is sensible
[08:41] <gnubolivar> hello
[08:41] <JosefK> !synaptic | Asc
[08:41] <ubotu> Asc: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[08:42] <fouadbajwa> you mean 10 GB for all?
[08:42] <d03boy> you have 5gb of ram?
[08:42] <gma> mnk0: no probs, cheers
[08:42] <kuma> Hi, i'm looking for some assistance on installing applications not listed in the add/remove applications list, can someone help me?
[08:42] <Odysseu1> Hi, does anyone know how I can auto "startx", like in the default Ubuntu installation? I messed some stuff up and it gives me a GDM: X server error, which - I can get pass by simply logging in to tty1, and using the familiar "startx" command. [Sorry for my inability to make this a bit clearer]
[08:43] <stefg> Paulus, fouadbajwa teh 2x RAM rule of thumb is obsolete. 512 MB is the maximum you'll ever need, when not using tmpfs and special things
[08:43] <Polygon89> kuma, try clicking "advanced" in the add/remove window, and then searching for the package you want
[08:43] <tom47> kuma try using synaptic
[08:43] <Lynoure> fouadbajwa: I do not think there is maximum sizes for anything, really. Swap usually about 2xRAM, /home, /usr and /var can be as large as you can afford, /boot can be usually tiny
[08:43] <Odysseu1> @ kuma do you mean form source or by using Synaptic?
[08:43] <n2diy> kuma: check out synaptic
[08:43] <kuma> errr... i'm using Kubuntu
[08:43] <d03boy> Odysseu1, get rid of GDM?
[08:43] <Paulus> stefg, is that true? even if I have 1G?
[08:43] <Asc> JosefK: thanx
[08:43] <Paulus> stefg, on a desktop system, that is
[08:43] <Odysseu1> do3boy, How? Isn't that a bit needed?
[08:43] <kuma> and i want to install rainlendar
[08:43] <stefg> Paulus: check your free -m
[08:43] <JosefK> Asc: np's
[08:43] <mnk0> gma cheers
[08:44] <n2diy> kubuntu doesn't come with synaptic installed?
[08:44] <fouadbajwa> how about suggesting a recommended/defacto size for all of them
[08:44] <fouadbajwa> say
[08:44] <tom47> kuma follow the menu System>Administration>Synaptic >Package Manager
[08:44] <Bagoor> I can use SNMP in my server for IP <IP_ADDRESS> but not from my computer. I use this command : snmpwalk -c public -v 1 x.x.x.x system --- should I add anything to be able use from my computer ?
[08:44] <tom47> kuma ! synaptic
[08:44] <Lynoure> fouadbajwa: For what kind of machine? What kind of use?
[08:44] <tom47> kuma !synaptic
[08:44] <Odysseu1> Or you can open up Konsole and type "apt-get".
[08:44] <fouadbajwa> i do 512MB-SWAP, 10GB-/home, 102MB-/boot
[08:45] <tom47> !synaptic > kuma
[08:45] <thisheregiraffe> !synaptic | kuma
[08:45] <ubotu> kuma: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[08:45] <fouadbajwa> this is a laptop with only 30 GB disk space
[08:45] <stefg> fouadbajwa: looks sensible
[08:45] <adaptr> Bagoor: you need to allow remote connections to snmp
[08:45] <thisheregiraffe> 8D
[08:45] <Paulus> stefg, you'll need at least the RAM size to suspend, though
[08:45] <tom47> thisheregiraffe ty
[08:45] <fouadbajwa> but i need to install both Ubuntu and RHLE ES and share the user files
[08:45] <kuma> The thing is that i came here earlier and a user named Ber helped me installing rainlendar, a calendar application, but he told me to just uncompress it in my /home/usr/ folder, now, the application is runnign, but i don't think that's the right way to install something in the OS
[08:45] <stefg> Paulus: ok, this is one of the 'special cases'
[08:45] <Paulus> fouadbajwa: for the system, 10G is fine really, maybe 8G
[08:45] <Lynoure> fouadbajwa: That's very little swap unless you hawe just 256MB of RAM, if it is a laptop, it could keep you from hibernating.
[08:45] <adaptr> fouadbajwa: so, you have only one /home
[08:46] <Polygon89> kuma, you are correct
[08:46] <Polygon89> kuma,  synaptic is much eaiser
[08:46] <pollywog> ja: the article I was thinking of is this one http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/8600
[08:46] <gRaCiOsO> Im trying to make detected my motorola v3 in edgy by usb i followed a web steps to do it but when i do sudo make in the packet that i wanna install it says this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1593/ someone could help me with that?
[08:46] <adaptr> fouadbajwa: say you set aside 5~8GB for each of the OSes, that leaves at least 15GB for home
[08:46] <Polygon89> kuma, because it automatically upgrades when there are upgrades, and if you want to remove it, you simply just search for it, right click and remove
[08:46] <riotkittie> only 30gb. pffft :P
[08:46] <fouadbajwa> 15GB is a good idea for /home so that can be used by all users from both systems
[08:46] <adaptr> fouadbajwa: it won't get any better with such a small HD - tough luck
[08:46] <Ber> Polygon89: I allready told him, but I'm not shure if reainlendar is available
[08:46] <n2diy> kuma: in linux there is more than one way to do anything, if the app is running, don't worry about it.
[08:46] <kuma> Polygon89: I didn't find the application in the Kpackage
[08:47] <gendor> I have a problem with folder sharing.  When I right click and change sharing status of a folder the changes do not stick.
[08:47] <fouadbajwa> actually its not small
[08:47] <stefg> riotkittie: you're invited to danat a bigger drive to him :-)
[08:47] <stefg> *donate
[08:47] <fouadbajwa> its a got 8gb consumed by embedded windows and have a 36GB part with windows on it that i am not allowed to remove due to some company licensing issue
[08:47] <kuma> n2diy: Hmmm, but, for example, is not listed in the Kmenu list of applications.
[08:47] <tom47> is there a quick way to type in someones nick?
[08:47] <toty> when my mouse cursor changes to the busy state it disappears, anyone got any ideas how to fix it, i've tried selecting another cursor set from mouse in pref, but it didn't work
[08:47] <adaptr> fouadbajwa: it is quite small by todays standards, more so if you want to multi-boot with another OS
[08:47] <riotkittie> stefg: nah. if i donate an bigger drive to anyone, it's going to be meee.  i've got a 11.2gb in my laptop
[08:47] <Polygon89> kuma, lets see if i can find a .deb for you to use
[08:48] <Lynoure> fouadbajwa: How much RAM you have?
[08:48] <fouadbajwa> i just had both ubuntu and Suse 10.2 SLES
[08:48] <thisheregiraffe> tom47: start typing the nick, and hit tab for it to auto-complete
[08:48] <adaptr> fouadbajwa: so it is not 30GB, it is at least 44 ?
[08:48] <fouadbajwa> on this machine
[08:48] <tom47> ty
[08:48] <fouadbajwa> but i screwed up testing
[08:48] <yurimxpxman> hey, I'm trying to use cdemu to mount a CUE/BIN image, but I don't know where it's mounting it to when I do it. It doesn't output any errors, so it must have worked, but it's not showing up in my mount directories.
[08:48] <angstmachine> heya all!
[08:48] <kuma> Polygon89: .deb? is tat like a RPM? (sorry, ui'm new at linux)
[08:48] <fouadbajwa> its 80GB,
[08:48] <connect1> can someone please advise me on the pro's con's of debian / ubuntu?
[08:48] <n2diy> kuma: some won't, but you maybe able to edit the menu to add it. I'm running Ubuntu, so I don't know how you would do it in kde?
[08:49] <gendor> I have a problem with folder sharing.  When I change sharing options of a folder the changes do not stick.
[08:49] <fouadbajwa> now my head is spinning in between RHLE, SUSE, and Ubuntu partitioning
[08:49] <Polygon89> kuma, ya, a deb is like a rpm, basically its like a installation file in windows (those .exe things) , you double click it and it installs it and adds it to synaptic and everyting
[08:49] <Lynoure> Either fouadbajwa ignores me or just does not want an opinion on the swap size :)
[08:49] <OrangeOrange> how can i dl i915resolution from uinversal
[08:49] <yurimxpxman> hey, I'm trying to use cdemu to mount a CUE/BIN image, but I don't know where it's mounting it to when I do it. It doesn't output any errors, so it must have worked, but it's not showing up in my mount directories.
[08:49] <kuma> Polygon89: I see, that would be great :)
[08:49] <tom47> thisheregiraffe: ty
[08:49] <adaptr> OrangeOrange: by adding the repo then using synaptic
[08:49] <angstmachine> so i changed my resolution in my xorg.conf, but it doesn't show up in sys-pref-resolution, nor can i change to it by using xrandr... any suggestions?
[08:49] <kimmern> Hey! My machine has two partitions..i've installed kubuntu on one of them, but how do i get to see the content on the other one?
[08:50] <tom47> thisheregiraffe: great!!!
[08:50] <Anders> Hello!
[08:50] <connect1> has anyone here put asterisk on ubuntu?
[08:50] <yurimxpxman> kimmern: go to /media/ and you'll see all of your partitions
[08:50] <adaptr> angstmachine: how do you know you have added them, then ?
[08:50] <Anders> remember me? ^_^
[08:50] <fouadbajwa> btw, what is the most common partition used by all there Redhat, Suse and Ubuntu
[08:50] <fouadbajwa> apart from home
[08:50] <Anders> the guy that had trouble with install from desktop cd a fe whours ago? lol
[08:50] <Anders> Ok
[08:50] <toty> any ideas? where is the settings file that sets what icons are set for different states, default, busy, resize, move etc?
[08:50] <Anders> Now I'm having trouble
[08:50] <gRaCiOsO> Im trying to make detected my motorola v3 in edgy by usb i followed a web steps to do it but when i do sudo make in the packet that i wanna install it says this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1593/ someone could help me with that?
[08:50] <Anders> installing a .sh file
[08:50] <kimmern> yurimxpxman: its not there
[08:50] <kuma> n2diy: But isn't that like... messy xD, i remember when i first installed a Linux distro (The one with the lizard) and i tried to install the most recent firefox
[08:51] <adaptr> fouadbajwa: you should share /home and swap, possibly /tmp, but that takes some skill to set up
[08:51] <zYe> i am having trouble running the program "tilda" anyone have any ideas?
[08:51] <Anders> Anyone: How do I 'install' a .sh file ?
[08:51] <adaptr> kuma: huh ? Edgy has FF2 by default, working more than fine
[08:51] <adaptr> Anders: run it
[08:51] <Anders> I did
[08:51] <TruthElixirX> After I install ubuntu and restart, as it is shutting down it says this "mount: function not implemented". Then when I turn it back on, its as if nothing installed. It says "lease insert boot media and hit enter or restart." And nothing happens. Any help?
[08:51] <angstmachine> adaptr: i put the new resolutions in the conf file for each color depth, i mean i don't think i forgot anything.
[08:51] <riotkittie> ./whatever.sh
[08:51] <zYe> anyone where running TILDA?
[08:51] <riotkittie> sh whatever.sh
[08:51] <adaptr> Anders: I guess not, or else what is your question ?
[08:51] <OrangeOrange> adaptr: do i have to restart before using synaptic.. cuz i cant find 915resolution in synaptic
[08:51] <Anders> Adapter: It tries to edit it with smoe word editting program
[08:51] <Polygon89> kuma, i cant seem to find a deb for it....
[08:51] <kuma> n2diy: I just uncompressed and there it was running, but the OS kept popping me the old version of the FF
[08:51] <n2diy> kuma: I suppose, but that is the way it is.
[08:51] <riotkittie> err no
[08:51] <fouadbajwa> what should be the minimum size of /root and max?
[08:51] <tom47> Anders: ou have to make it executable for it to work
[08:51] <Anders> some*
[08:51] <kimmern> anyone? how can i found my other partition? what do i mount?
[08:51] <__james> how can i install driver on my ubuntu? i have nvidia card
[08:52] <adaptr> OrangeOrange: you have ot add the universe/multiverse repositories to your sources, then reload synaptic
[08:52] <riotkittie> !nvidia
[08:52] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:52] <Anders> Tom47: how do I do that ? I downloaded it off introversions site: http://www.darwinia.co.uk/support/linux.html
[08:52] <Anders> I'm trying to get Darwinia running.. :P
[08:52] <adaptr> angstmachine: read you xorg log to see if Xorg picked them up
[08:52] <__james> ok thnx
[08:52] <adub> how do i get rid of console beep its aggravating
[08:52] <adaptr> +r
[08:52] <Polygon89> kuma, which is most likely why that guy told you to install it the way he did, cause there is no .dev and its not in the repos...
[08:52] <SzArAk> where can i find differences between ubuntu and vanilla kernel?
[08:52] <n2diy> kuma: I'm not familiar with rainlendar, so I don't know how it plays with FF?
[08:52] <kuma> ok, so is there at least any directory i can add the uncompressed directory w/o a conflict? it bothers me having a application in my /home/ folder
[08:52] <riotkittie> chmod +x somefile.sh
[08:52] <angstmachine> adaptr: lemmee check
[08:52] <gRaCiOsO> Im trying to make detected my motorola v3 in edgy by usb i followed a web steps to do it but when i do sudo make in the packet that i wanna install it says this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1593/ someone could help me with that?
[08:53] <yurimxpxman> kimmern: browse to your /device/disk folder and find the partition in there. You'll need to mount that.
[08:53] <tom47> anders ..... dont know the site but i would be very careful about downoading and executing script files off the net
[08:53] <zYe> anyone here running ubuntu?
[08:53] <Anders> It's a linux patch
[08:53] <tom47> anders ... anyway .....
[08:53] <zYe> hahaha
[08:53] <Anders> for a game
[08:53] <kuma> Polygon89: I see..
[08:53] <adaptr> zYe: no, nobody
[08:53] <adub> how can i get rid of console beep ???
[08:53] <zYe> haha :)
[08:53] <Pelo> !vmware >me
[08:53] <Anders> wich uses the windows CD to install it
[08:53] <tom47> anders you have to set the permissions on the file
[08:53] <zYe> at least i got a answer
[08:53] <riotkittie> zYe: people in here running ubuntu? doubtful, where do you think you are?
[08:53] <tom47> !permissions
[08:53] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[08:53] <n2diy> kuma, remove your current installation, and let synaptic install the new one.
[08:53] <TruthElixirX> ugh, sorry, did anyone address me/my problem whilst I was kicked?
[08:53] <adaptr> zYe: nor are you - you don't have the brain required
[08:53] <Anders> faster than me :P
[08:53] <zYe> i was being sarcastic

[08:53] <OrangeOrange> adaptr: i think i did .. i edit xorg.conf and uncomment the two lines for universal
[08:54] <zYe> thx
[08:54] <Geto> where can I download w32 codec for xine
[08:54] <kuma> n2diy: I think rainlendar is not listed in synaptic
[08:54] <yurimxpxman> kimmern: go to /dev/disk/by-label in your file browser and see the one you're looking for. Right-click it and choose Properties. Take a look at where that partition is, such as /dev/sda1. Then open terminal and type "mount sda1"
[08:54] <OrangeOrange> adaptr: i mean
[08:54] <adaptr> OrangeOrange: you edited xorg.conf ? that's ...erm wrong
[08:54] <Anders> Tom47:  BIG THANKS TO YOU!
[08:54] <OrangeOrange> adaptr: source list
[08:54] <zYe> what a douche
[08:54] <n2diy> kuma, did you enable all the repos in synaptic?
[08:54] <riotkittie> theres  a lin version of rainlender? sweeeet
[08:54] <kuma> n2diy: Besides, i don't have synaptic, since i'm running Kubuntu.
[08:54] <coir> I type - 'gksudo "update-manager -c -d"', and I get to where I can hit 'upgrade,' but afterwards I get a message saying 'Authentication failed.' Is this something I can work around somehow, or is it on server-end?
[08:54] <adaptr> OrangeOrange: just use the GUI tool please, it is less error-prone
[08:54] <KristianDK> Whats a logical hostname, and what would mine be ? :S
[08:54] <gendor> can anyone help?
[08:54] <SzArAk> where can i find differences between ubuntu kernel and vanilla kernel?
[08:54] <OrangeOrange> adaptr: where that?
[08:54] <yurimxpxman> gendor: what's your problem?
[08:54] <OrangeOrange> adaptr: sry me noob
[08:54] <kuma> n2diy: I searched in Kpackage w/o matches
[08:54] <adaptr> coir: that means you have repos that are not properly authenticated with public keys
[08:55] <gendor> whenever I change folder sharing of a folder the changes do not stick.
[08:55] <adaptr> OrangeOrange: go to system -> admin -> software sources
[08:55] <adub> how do i get rid of console beeping ??
[08:55] <n2diy> kuma, do you have aptitude?
[08:55] <Polygon89> kuma, you have multiverse and universe repos enabled (its in prefs somewhere)
[08:55] <kuma> adub i'lll help you with that
[08:55] <adaptr> coir: it's no big deal if you added repos yourself, say for beryl or something
[08:55] <yurimxpxman> gendor; are you typing the chmod command in terminal or using your file browser?
[08:55] <angstmachine> adaptr: yeah it's not in the log, it only loaded the one res. it's in the conf file, though, why wouldn't it load?
[08:55] <gendor> file browser
[08:55] <yurimxpxman> gendor: also, are you running as root?
[08:55] <kuma> adub: oh, console, nvm, i know how to get rid of the CPU beep, sorry
[08:55] <coir> adaptr: How can I fix that? I haven't added any besides multiverse an such.
[08:55] <adaptr> angstmachine: no idea what you mean
[08:56] <gendor> can I run the file browser as root?
[08:56] <yurimxpxman> gendor: yes. Are you using Gnome?
[08:56] <kuma> Polygon89 & n2diy: huh?
[08:56] <gendor> yes
[08:56] <adaptr> coir: then look closely at the output of "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"; this will do the same, but in console
[08:56] <zoidberg> hey guys
[08:56] <n2diy> kuma, do you have aptitude?
[08:56] <yurimxpxman> gendor: open Terminal and type "sudo nautilus /mydirectory" (no quotes and replace the dir with yours)
[08:56] <zoidberg> if i'm in the terminal and i want to print the terminal screen to a printer...what do i type?
[08:56] <adaptr> n2diy: dude, I have tons of 'tude :)
[08:56] <Polygon89> n2diy, im pretty sure he does as he is running kubuntu
[08:57] <unclemike> ? in ubuntu 6.10.. /dev/hda5 is supose to b ext3 /...hda7 is supose to be ext3 /home...but there listed as /dev/hda5 ? / /dev/hda7 ? /home...UUID=adc ext3 /...UUID=89 ext3 /home
[08:57] <kuma> n2diy: yes i do :)
[08:57] <coir> adaptr: No errors, but 0 upgraded, newly installed, removed, etc.
[08:57] <adub> kuma like when im inside of my prompt to type commands it will beep when i scroll at the end of the command line
[08:57] <n2diy> Polygon89: roger that.
[08:57] <angstmachine> adaptr: i added a new resolution to each color depth in the xorg.conf file, but, like we just established x didn't load the new resolutions.
[08:57] <zoidberg> guys can anyone help me please
[08:57] <zoidberg> ?
[08:57] <adaptr> coir: so it doesn't want to upgrade ? from what to what are you trying to upgrade ?
[08:57] <yurimxpxman> zoidberg: what's your problem?
[08:57] <gendor> yurimxpxman, which directory, the one I want to change?
[08:57] <yurimxpxman> gendor: yes
[08:57] <coir> From Edgy to Feisty.
[08:57] <yurimxpxman> gendor: or you could browse to it if you just type "sudo nautilus"
[08:57] <kuma> shoould i run aprirude?
[08:58] <kuma> *should
[08:58] <bjames> hi all, does anyone here know if a Sempron 2800+ would be adequate for a media box - running VLC decoding things like avi Xvid, mp3, wma, etc?
[08:58] <kuma> *aptitude (i'm a lousy writer)
[08:58] <adaptr> angstmachine: *we* did not establish anything.. you wrote some partial sentences I could not parse... and just use the one bit depth you use (that would be 24) because the rest is useless for a decent desktop
[08:58] <yurimxpxman> bjames: yes, that should run just fine
[08:58] <riotkittie> bjames: yea, it would be ok
[08:58] <adaptr> angstmachine: and you did restart X I hope
[08:58] <Shaba1> I am trying to figure out some way of testing out ubuntu on my HD but then be able to recover the disk space for windows if I start running short
[08:58] <OrangeOrange> adaptr: do i check all the universe part?
[08:58] <Shaba1> any ideas
[08:58] <zoidberg> yurimxpxman: if i'm in the terminal and i want to print the terminal screen to a printer...what do i type?
[08:58] <Polygon89> kuma, what package manager does kubuntu have?
[08:58] <bjames> yurimxpxman: cheers
[08:58] <adaptr> OrangeOrange: read the options carefully - they all mean something *different*
[08:59] <yurimxpxman> Shaba1: use Gparted to resize your partitions
[08:59] <adub> can someone please help me out a bid on this i need to stop console beeps
[08:59] <kuma> Polygon89 I think Kpackage, but i already searched there
[08:59] <adaptr> OrangeOrange: you want universe and multiverse for at least binary, updates, and security
[08:59] <bjames> will it also be "fairly" future-proof, i.e. when more intensive video codecs come out it will have at least a fighting chance
[08:59] <Polygon89> kuma, i just need you to enable universe and multiverse, cause that might be the reason its not showing up
[08:59] <otacon22__> something on linux to convert from avi to 3gp?
[08:59] <yurimxpxman> zoidberg: you can print terminal's text by copying and pasting it into a text editor and printing it from there.
[08:59] <kuma> Polygon89: ok, i'm running it now
[09:00] <adaptr> bjames: what do you mean, "more intensive" ? MPEG4 was discussed in 1999, and MPEG20 is already a standard, and nobody's even using that yet
[09:00] <yurimxpxman> zoidberg: CTRL+C doesn't work in most terminal apps, but you can usually right-click the text to copy it
[09:00] <zoidberg> yurimxpxman: i know that but is there a more direct way of doing it without opening a nother applicatino and pasting the text there?
[09:00] <gendor> yuri, ok if I type that then I get Nautilus in that folder, what then?
[09:00] <moocowmoocowmoo> hello, i'm trying to make a shell script to do automated backups of a windows file share, i used the smbmount command in the terminal and it worked, but is there a way to bypass entering a password so the script can run by itself?
[09:00] <kuma> Polygon89: whats atitude anyway?
[09:00] <yurimxpxman> gendor: then just set the permissions like you normally would. If you typed sudo, you're running as root.
[09:00] <adaptr> mooooo
[09:00] <Polygon89> kuma, somewhere in there is an option to edit the repos and enable multiverse and universe
[09:00] <moocowmoocowmoo> moo
[09:01] <stefg> !samba moocowmoocowmoo
[09:01] <Geto> i need help
[09:01] <bjames> adaptr: hi again, I mean would it struggle with todays video codecs and therefore probably not have a chance with more resource intesive ones later
[09:01] <ubotu> samba: a LanManager-like file and printer server for Unix. In component main, is optional. Version 3.0.22-1ubuntu4 (edgy), package size 2836 kB, installed size 7200 kB
[09:01] <adaptr> moocowmoocowmoo: does the share need to be mounted 24/7 ?
[09:01] <Polygon89> kuma, aptitude is just a program that keeps track of everything installed on your computer, and it checks daily for updates, downloads them, installs the updates and stuff
[09:01] <stefg> !samba | moocowmoocowmoo
[09:01] <ubotu> moocowmoocowmoo: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[09:01] <yurimxpxman> Geto: what's your problem?
[09:01] <angstmachine> adaptr: i have restarted x quite a few times as i have tweaked and re-tweaked this issue. and i do realize that i don't need to change the resolution for the other depths, i was simply following the instructions in the documentations i have been following.
[09:01] <adaptr> bjames: and by "it" you mean... ?
[09:01] <moocowmoocowmoo> no i'd rather its just mounted when the backup runs
[09:01] <Geto> where can i download w32 codec for xine
[09:01] <zoidberg> !samba
[09:01] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT

[09:01] <adaptr> angstmachine: can you paste the output of your xorg log?
[09:01] <gendor> yuri, what do I set my permissions to if I want this to be visible on a networked Mac?
[09:01] <yurimxpxman> Geto: I *think* it's available from the Ubuntu package manager.. just go to Add/Remove
[09:01] <TruthElixirX> Linux keeps failing to mount properly or something. Whenever I restart after installing, it never works. Tried like 10+ times. No idea whats wrong.
[09:02] <adaptr> moocowmoocowmoo: please address people in a busy channel such as this one :)
[09:02] <stefg> moocowmoocowmoo: read about credential-files in samba and the mount syntax for smb-shares
[09:02] <jrib> Geto: you may also want libxine-extracodecs from multiverse
[09:02] <Polygon89> kuma, sadly i have to go now, but look around for the option to edit the repos, and enable multiverse and universe, im not running kubuntu so i dunno where it is, and i have to go now
[09:02] <Polygon89> kuma, after you enable them try searching for it again, "hopefully" it will show up
[09:02] <yurimxpxman> Geto: set the owner to the username of your samba installation and set its permissions for samba to read and write
[09:02] <Pyromaniac_> does anyone have a fix for the Wine MFC libary problem?
[09:02] <bjames> adaptr: "it" being the 2800+ based system I mentioned previously
[09:02] <Taime1> no matter what i do, i cant get frostwire to start... can someone help me with this? ( i have the newest java)
[09:03] <kuma> Polygon89: ok, thanks :)
[09:03] <moocowmoocowmoo> ok adaptr, no i just want it mounted when its backing up
[09:03] <adaptr> bjames: I did not see that, my screen is not 463 lines high....
[09:03] <stefg> yurimxpxman: that's not good practice
[09:03] <Polygon89> kuma, , your welcome =P
[09:03] <yurimxpxman> woops.. my bad, I meant gendor
[09:03] <Geto> where can i do that
[09:03] <jrib> Geto: do what?
[09:03] <yurimxpxman> stefg: how so?
[09:03] <bjames> adaptr: (I'm having the same problem keeping track - lots of chatters today)
[09:03] <adaptr> moocowmoocowmoo: you can script username and password with smbmount, surely ?
[09:03] <errorlevel> I have two questions that are related:  I searched packages.ubuntu.com for what contained the program wlanconfig, but found nothing.  Where should I get it so I can configure my madwifi-ng supported card as an access point?  Failing that, where should I specify parameters to the module ath_pci?
[09:03] <TruthElixirX> I tried fixing GRUB but that didn't appear to work. Same thing happened.I'm at my wits' end. I have no windows to put on this computer and Ubuntu won't work. I need help bad. >.<
[09:03] <Geto>  set the owner to the username of your samba installation and set its permissions for samba to read and write!!this
[09:04] <yurimxpxman> Geto: sorry, I meant to type someone else's name
[09:04] <moocowmoocowmoo> adaptr: i'm pretty clueless about it
[09:04] <Geto> ok
[09:04] <stefg> yurimxpxman: the proper way is to have a credentials file for the samba login, so smbmount can read username and pass from there
[09:04] <adaptr> !madwifi | errorlevel
[09:04] <ubotu> errorlevel: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:04] <gendor> yuri, when I run nautilus as sudo the permission changes still won't stick
[09:04] <adaptr> moocowmoocowmoo: man smbmount; if user and pass are parameters then you can also put that in a script :)
[09:04] <yurimxpxman> gendor: what partition is it? Could you be trying to edit the permissions of a read-only one, like your NTFS partition?
[09:04] <Taime1> why wont frostwire start up on my computer?

[09:06] <yurimxpxman> have any of you used cdemu? I can't figure out where it mounted my BIN/CUE image.. it's not in the mnt or media directories
[09:06] <adaptr> moocowmoocowmoo: you would have to use a user that has access to the shares, obviously
[09:06] <dm__> jrib thanks
[09:06] <TruthElixirX> D?oes anyone know how to help me with my boot problems
[09:06] <bjames> adaptr: it'll be the onboard VGA (shared memory I think)
[09:07] <bjames> adaptr: shouldn't be a problem though really should it?
[09:07] <tarnold85> for some reason my system defaults to the totem movie player to open .dat files. How can I change this?

[09:07] <dm__> jrib yep thanks
[09:07] <gendor> yuri, darn even when I run gksudo I still can't change permissions from within the file browser
[09:07] <adaptr> bjames: then that is the single determining factor of your video capabilities; right now, they flux between Sucking and Impossible
[09:07] <r_rehashed> but the instructions are kind of confusing
[09:07] <Taime1> jrib, i guess i was mistaken, terminal tells me that i do not have the latest java installed, i will do that from java's site, then return if i still have problems
[09:07] <adaptr> bjames: a decent video card does not mean 3D - it means decent video
[09:08] <r_rehashed> especialy the repositories. do I add them in synaptic
[09:08] <adaptr> bjames: as in: pure video redraw speed, which you certainly need to support HDTV
[09:08] <jrib> Taime1: I'd recommend installing the version in the repositories
[09:08] <yurimxpxman> gendor: sorry then, I'm not sure what your problem is, unless you lost your permissions to your own home directory.
[09:08] <yurimxpxman> have any of you used cdemu?
[09:08] <Taime1> well, thats what i have installed, i use adept
[09:08] <adaptr> bjames: so yes, that is* your biggest problem as of now
[09:08] <r_rehashed> I wasn't able to add them in synaptic
[09:08] <jrib> !multijava | Taime1
[09:08] <ubotu> Taime1: To set which java version/implementation is to be used as default, use sudo update-java-alternatives
[09:08] <dm__> bjames if you play movies or do graphical work, you need your vid card to work properly, everything looks better ,
[09:08] <bjames> adaptr: well my thoughts were that it shouldn't need to be any good as all the codec work is done by the CPU - all the video card would need to do is spit the frame buffer out to the VGA port
[09:09] <adaptr> bjames: apart from that, it obviously doesn;t matter which OS you use to play HD video - you just need to be able to *play* it properly
[09:09] <vakosel> why cant i find wine in synaptic manager even though i have all repositories checked (main, restrictred, univ. multiv) ?
[09:09] <jrib> vakosel: what architecture are you using?
[09:09] <bjames> althought I've never used onboard vga, other than my laptop - and that's fine for video
[09:09] <tarnold85> How can I change the default program to open certain types of files?
[09:09] <yurimxpxman> have any of you used cdemu?
[09:09] <adaptr> bjames: that depends, but generally, yes
[09:09] <kevinl> Can anyone help me setup my wireless network? I can't seem to find anywhere to put in my WEP key

[09:10] <gendor> thanking for the tab completion :)
[09:10] <tiolpxe> hey ive installed ubuntu everything seems fine but how can i tell which if any drivers are incorrect etc like device manager in windows ????
[09:10] <gendor> yurimxpxman, You know I can change permissions on everything except the shared folder.
[09:10] <hotti> how could i minimize programs to upper dock in gnome? (like GAIM is doing)
[09:10] <errorlevel> Since my initial solicitation yielded a useless response:  I have two questions that are related:  I searched packages.ubuntu.com for what contained the program wlanconfig, but found nothing.  Where should I get it so I can configure my madwifi-ng supported card as an access point (not covered under the community docs)?  Failing that, where should I specify parameters to the module ath_pci?
[09:10] <adaptr> tiolpxe: start by forgetting the "like windows" mantra...
[09:10] <JosefK> tiolpxe: if it's working they're probably right, you could "dmesg | less" if you fancy some complex reading though
[09:10] <yurimxpxman> gendor: what happens if you stop sharing it? Can you change it then?
[09:10] <bjames> adaptr: is it the case that when you say "it either sucks or doesn't work" you're referring to the fact the onboard video isn't properly detected/supported by Linux and is therefore a waste of time, or do you mean it's physically uncapable of playing video at any decent frame rate?
[09:10] <gendor> yurimxpxman, I can't stop sharing it.  The change won't stick.
[09:11] <adaptr> errorlevel: already answered - !madwifi
[09:11] <yurimxpxman> gendor: ah, I see.
[09:11] <errorlevel> adaptr: No.  That is not an answer!
[09:11] <yurimxpxman> gendor: you should try the chmod command
[09:11] <kevinl> yuri: the only things in system>admin are 'networking', and 'network tools', neither have anywhere I can put in a WEP key
[09:11] <yurimxpxman> have any of you used cdemu? I've got a questiona bout it
[09:11] <gendor> yurimxpxman, Can I stop sharing through the terminal?
[09:11] <errorlevel> adaptr: Where at on the wifi page does it say anything about where to get wlanconfig?  Where does it say anything about how to specify module parameters?
[09:11] <tiolpxe> JosefK, yeah everything seems fine but im using a laptop so thought there may be a good chance that something may be missing
[09:11] <adaptr> bjames: a combination of both, really... support can be a paion depending heavily on the onboard chip used, and shoddy or cheaper onboard chips also deliver shoddy performance
[09:11] <errorlevel> adaptr: Did you read my question?
[09:11] <JosefK> tiolpxe: dmesg | less :)

[09:12] <yurimxpxman> kevinl: Yes, I meant Networking. What wireless adapter do you have? You may have an unsupported one. If that's the case, you'll need to use NdisWrapper to  use your Windows drivers
[09:12] <adaptr> ah
[09:12] <bjames> adaptr: it's an Asus board (who I've never had problems with before and are arguably the best mobo maker) K8V-VM
[09:12] <adaptr> that was the 5-second google, you probably need to do the 10-second one

[09:13] <Anders> Well
[09:13] <vakosel> jrib?
[09:13] <jrib> errorlevel: the madwifi wiki page explains
[09:13] <Schminux> Please help, I am a Ubuntu Noob...
[09:13] <Schminux> in shell scritpt file    /etc/init.d/rc.local
[09:13] <Schminux> I would like to add the console command    iwpriv ath0 authmode 2
[09:13] <M_Fatih> hi
[09:13] <Schminux> which sets WEP mode on wireless card
[09:13] <Schminux> 1) How do I open a text editor with admin priveledges to make the change?
[09:13] <Anders> Stefg: I'm using a WRT54GL
[09:13] <Schminux> 2) What should the command(s) actually look like in the script file?
[09:13] <Schminux> -----------------------
[09:13] <Schminux> Thanks to <stefg>, <ubotu>, and <czr> for helping me get this far!!!
[09:13] <Anders> Stefg: And It's working perfectly.
[09:13] <jrib> vakosel: what's the url?  Try to address me with my name so that my highlight works
[09:13] <linux_user400354> how can i see what type of partitions i have on my hard drive such as primary, extended, logical, etc?
[09:13] <elyon> Well, after a long absence of trying other distros, I'm back to Ubuntu and everything is going well.  Except I STILL have this nasty crash happening when people log out in X.  Could someone help me track down the cause?
[09:14] <LiquidScythe> hi!
[09:14] <kevinl> yuri, I have a netgear WG311v3 802.11g wireless PCI adapter, where can I check if it's supported?
[09:14] <errorlevel> jrib: Are you referring to the driver page in the ubuntu wiki?
[09:14] <Taime1> jrib, i checked in my java folder, it IS the newest java.. so i pastebin'd my output here: http://pastehere.com/?awmbes
[09:14] <TruthElixirX> Am I doing something wrong, that people won't help me?
[09:14] <jrib> errorlevel: yes
[09:14] <M_Fatih> i want to set dns, i'm changing my /etc/resolv.conf file but it returns default at next boot (~when restarted).. how can i change my dns adresses?
[09:14] <LiquidScythe> ok since i have been having loading problems with 6.10, is okay if i download 6.06 and then just update?
[09:14] <jrib> Taime1: is sun-java5-bin installed?
[09:15] <Taime1> yes it is
[09:15] <tom47> linux_user400354: you can use gparted (GNOME Parrition Editor) [under System>Administration]
[09:15] <errorlevel> jrib: It only has an invocation of the command and talks about compiling the module from source if I need to (which appears to be for older ubuntu versions [I'm running edgy] ).  Must I compile wlanconfig if I want it?
[09:15] <LiquidScythe> Taime1 was that for me?
[09:15] <yurimxpxman> kevinl: I'd check the Ubuntu wiki. I'm trying to find it right now..
[09:15] <Taime1> yes
[09:15] <linux_user400354> LiquidScythe: just updating wont give you 6.10, but there is a way to go from 6.04 to 6.10 without reinstalling
[09:15] <Taime1> sorry
[09:15] <LiquidScythe> k
[09:15] <jrib> Taime1: pastebin the output of 'sudo update-laternatives --config java'
[09:15] <Shaba1> hey folks
[09:15] <tuxvix> Hello everyone
[09:16] <Shaba1> what is ./configure

[09:16] <adaptr> bjames: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=328972
[09:16] <vakosel> deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper main restricted universe multiverse
[09:16] <linux_user400354> tom47: i am using that. where is the information about primary, logical, etc?
[09:16] <tuxvix> I bought one box especially for ubuntu =)
[09:16] <bjames> adaptr: cheers
[09:16] <LiquidScythe> well what is so differnent between 6.06 and 6.10?
[09:16] <tuxvix> Will this be good box for Ubuntu >>> http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320069498022
[09:16] <adaptr> bjames: it's an unsupported VIA piece of c**p
[09:16] <elyon> I also can not get a resolution higher than 1024x768 (even though I edited xorg.conf to include more)
[09:16] <LiquidScythe> do i really need 6.10?
[09:16] <bjames> adaptr: I've googled it as well
[09:16] <yurimxpxman> Shaba1: ./configure readies your source code to be compiled for your system
[09:16] <adaptr> bjames: ..which is more or less what I said
[09:16] <adaptr> bjames: *ANY* $30 PCIe card will do better
[09:16] <tuxvix> of course I will change the hd to bigger one ;-)
[09:16] <Shaba1> so it runs the c compiler and preproccesor on its own?
[09:17] <tom47> linux_user400354: if there are logical partions these show as a sort of subheading
[09:17] <jrib> errorlevel: from the page, "With the new -ng module things work differently. "  So I assume it is implying that the version in ubuntu doesn't have that command
[09:17] <adaptr> bjames: but if you really want HDMI out you'll have to spend the money for it
[09:17] <TruthElixirX> Is there *anywhere* I can get some help?
[09:17] <Taime1> jrib, here ya go http://pastehere.com/?ydeopc
[09:17] <anirudha> what is the equivalent software package of Windows Media Player, on Ubuntu?
[09:17] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: that depends what you need help with
[09:17] <shwag> how do I remove a pgk with dpkg, and override dependencies.
[09:17] <tonyyarusso> !players
[09:17] <ubotu> Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Banshee, Beep Media Player, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine  -  See also !codecs
[09:17] <vakosel> jrib you got the address?
[09:17] <yurimxpxman> kevinl: check this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported
[09:17] <adaptr> anirudha: there are dozens, take you rpick
[09:17] <tonyyarusso> anirudha: ^^
[09:17] <elyon> TruthElixirX: Welcome to my world... been asking the same question for 2 weeks and have gotten a response ONCE lol
[09:17] <tuxvix> Compaq Ipaq Mini CPU Tower PC: 500MHz, 128MB RAM, 8.4GB HDD, NIC, USB.
[09:17] <bjames> adaptr: to be honest VGA is just as good
[09:17] <BackPacker> Shaba1: ./configure checks the environment in which the compilation will take place, and it builds a makefile. The command then runs the commands in the makefile
[09:17] <tuxvix> will that be enoff for Ubuntu 6.10 ??
[09:17] <bjames> adaptr: I've never had a problem with noise
[09:17] <r_rehashed> what are DRM modules?
[09:17] <TruthElixirX> After installing Ubuntu, I restart, and it never boots. Says "please isnert boot media"
[09:18] <jrib> vakosel: I need you to pastebin the entire file on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org and then give me a link.  Or is your sources.list just that one line?
[09:18] <TruthElixirX> and that is all
[09:18] <linux_user400354> how can i see what type of partitions i have on my hard drive such as primary, extended, logical, etc. I have fdisk, cfdisk, and GParted, but I dont see the information about primary, logical, etc for each partition that i have?
[09:18] <tuxvix> any one
[09:18] <adaptr> bjames: that makes no sense - is the TV a fake-HDTV ? if it really has HDMI resolution then believe me.. you *will* notice the difference
[09:18] <errorlevel> jrib: Ahh, so the version included with edgy is the old madwifi driver then....
[09:18] <coz_> question... is there a way on edgy, to diable the recent documents wiitout getting any errors or crap behavior frm the system/
[09:18] <Amadeo> I have a Volume control that's in-line on my USB headset (Plantronics DSP-500)...the headset works ok, but the Volume control seems to control the master volume of the sound card in my PC rather than for itself...is there any way I can make the volume control only adjust its own volume?
[09:18] <elyon> TruthElixirX: Did you install a boot loader?
[09:18] <anirudha> Is there one media player that works best, or is mostly used on ubuntu?
[09:18] <Caleb> someone try to install nforce drivers on ubuntu 6.10?
[09:18] <TruthElixirX> I'm not sure? I just ran the "install" icon on the live CD
[09:18] <gendor> yurimxpxman, Ok I actually fixed it on my own. :)
[09:18] <TruthElixirX> And followed those steps
[09:18] <adaptr> tuxvix: you might want to upgrade th ememory to 256MB minimum, 512 would be better yet
[09:18] <toty> how do i uninstall mouse pointers from edgy?
[09:18] <gandalfcome> nvidia-xconfig only writes driver and identifier into my xorg.conf. it doesnt really work. Please help
[09:18] <yurimxpxman> gendor: awesome! What was the problem?
[09:18] <shwag> im trying to get a .deb uninstalled.
[09:18] <elyon> TruthElixirX: Okay... there was a section there asking where you wanted to install the boot loader... do you remember that?
[09:18] <jrib> errorlevel: it's probably whatever was around last october, but the package info should let you figure out the version
[09:18] <r_rehashed> anirudha: try video lan
[09:18] <fastly> anyone here know how to mount my sony memorystick? it's not being auto-detected...
[09:19] <pppoe_dude> k i have a problem
[09:19] <gendor> yurimxpxman, I deleted a line in the nfs configuration file that had the directory listed.  Restarted the nfs server.  Now it works.
[09:19] <___james> how to install video acceleration?
[09:19] <coz_> toty, you need to have an app  called gcursor for the gui way fo doing that
[09:19] <pppoe_dude> i am trying to upgrade from breezy to dapper
[09:19] <fastly> it's build into my laptop
[09:19] <jrib> Taime1: you want to choose 3
[09:19] <thisheregiraffe> shwag: what's the name of the .deb?
[09:19] <shwag> I cant uninstall the package because its complaining about dependencies.
[09:19] <pppoe_dude> but, i cannot see an upgrade button
[09:19] <TruthElixirX> @elyon: Nope...? I remember time zone, keyboard config, username/pass, HDD to install/format, and that is all
[09:19] <r_rehashed> supports almost every commonly used video format under the sun
[09:19] <d03boy> anyone know how I can turn my wireless adapter ON? It usually needs to be turned on through a Function+F2
[09:19] <errorlevel> jrib: It's included with linux-restricted-modules, I'm not sure how to get the version from that.
[09:19] <vakosel> i sent it to you
[09:19] <anirudha> r_rehashed,  what's video lan? Which package?
[09:19] <toty> coz_: thanks, i'll check it out
[09:19] <vakosel> to your name with a new dialog
[09:19] <bjames> adaptr: HDMI isn't a resolution - VGA can carry 1366x768 so no scaling is required and hence the video quality will be exactly the same as HMDI based systems
[09:19] <pppoe_dude> i can only see the message telling me theres a new version
[09:19] <pppoe_dude> that is after i ran 'update-manager -d'
[09:19] <shwag> thisheregiraffe: its an i810 xorg package i downloadeded manually
[09:19] <gendor> yurimxpxman, Thanks for the help anyhow.  I learned a lot.
[09:19] <M_Fatih> i want to set dns, i'm changing my /etc/resolv.conf file but it returns default at next boot (~when restarted).. how can i change my dns adresses?
[09:19] <Taime1> -s java-1.5.0-sun/jre/bin/java ?
[09:19] <shwag> thisheregiraffe: I need to get the original one installed, but apt-get wont overwrite it.
[09:19] <thisheregiraffe> shwag: and aptitude/synaptic won't remove it for you?
[09:19] <bjames> adaprt: HD does not explicitly imply the need for HMDI
[09:19] <r_rehashed> search for vlc in synaptic. u'll get it
[09:19] <vakosel> you saw it?
[09:19] <coz_> toty, apt-get instal gcursor and after install it will be under system preferences  cusor selection
[09:19] <Kaelten> there is never an easy answer is there?
[09:19] <jrib> errorlevel: check the changelog
[09:20] <jrib> errorlevel: or anything in /usr/share/doc/package_name
[09:20] <TruthElixirX> where is the place to install a boot loader at?
[09:20] <adaptr> bjames: that would depend on whether the TV would actually *use* the provided VGA quality you feed it.. quite apart from the obvious - IT'S NOT DIGITAL
[09:20] <bjames> adaptr: when I say "VGA can carry..." I mean a D-sub 15 cable
[09:20] <jrib> vakosel: I can only see it if you give me the url, the pastebin doesn't tell me about things
[09:20] <___james> how to install video accelerator?
[09:20] <adaptr> bjames: what is the use of having a HDTV when you don't feed it 1366x768 digita in
[09:20] <jrib> !nvidia | ___james

[09:21] <vakosel> deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper main restricted universe multiverse
[09:21] <___james> ok
[09:21] <bjames> adaptr: trust me on this I know a lot about video/audio - a VGA cable will do fine
[09:21] <mohshami> hey guys, I've been using ubuntu for a while and I love it, one of my clients is looking for a hosing provider, anybody knows a dedicated hosting provider running ubuntu?
[09:21] <yurimxpxman> have any of you used cdemu?
[09:21] <jrib> vakosel: ok, that one line is your entire file?
[09:21] <Juan> i have a webcam which works on my user account, but it doesn't work on others
[09:21] <___james> how to automatically enable numlock on boot?
[09:21] <adaptr> bjames: then get a decent video card - nvidia is very well supported under Linux, but quality-wise you might prefer a cheap ATI
[09:21] <vakosel> no also to secur updates , updates, and backports the same to all
[09:22] <mnk0> anyone play warcraft 3 ?
[09:22] <bjames> adaptr: I always go NVidia, ;-)
[09:22] <adaptr> bjames: the board you showed also has zero upgrade options - you do know that, I hope ?
[09:22] <n2diy> ! cdemu
[09:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cdemu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:22] <r_rehashed> anirudha: to get the latest stable version and also to be able to play dvds using vlc, add the foll. repository in synaptic, deb http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf/ edgy-plf free non-free
[09:22] <adaptr> bjames: not a problem when you're using it as a mythtv box, I suppose
[09:22] <jrib> vakosel: please join me in #ubuntu-classroom by typing the following command in your irc client:  /join #ubuntu-classroom
[09:22] <___james> how to automatically enable numlock on boot?
[09:23] <yurimxpxman> ubotu: do you know of any other apps that'll mount BIN/CUE images?
[09:23] <nRkiSt> can someone point me to to the howto to login/su as root?
[09:23] <r_rehashed> anirudha: or better, visit http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-ubuntu.html
[09:23] <bjames> adaptr: I really don't understand what you mean by "zero upgrade options" - it can always be upgraded to the limit of it's I/O ports
[09:23] <toty> coz_: thanks, and then to remove a cursor set i just delete the cursor folder and choose another theme?
[09:23] <TruthElixirX> Okay, I'm at the "prepare disk space" on ther install thing. What do I do to make sure a boot loader gets installed? Am I to that step yet?
[09:23] <tom47> linux_user400354: unless its identified differently then parttions are primary partitions ... if the ere extended partition then another partition marked 'extended' is shown in gparted with the extended partitions inside of it grouped under it
[09:24] <ben_> nRkiSt: sudo passwd root
[09:24] <coz_> toty, essentially yes or install another cursor theme grom gnomelook.org
[09:24] <Juan> hi, i'm on ubuntu edgy and i have a webcam which works on my user account (admin), but it doesn't work on other accounts
[09:24] <yurimxpxman> does anyone in here know how to mount BIN/CUE images in Linux? I'm trying to mount a playstation ROM
[09:24] <anirudha> Okay, but if there is a website that on which I watch videos with Windows Media Player. What software on Ubuntu should I have to watch those videos.
[09:24] <adaptr> bjames: socket 754 is the budget amd64 platform, not likely to ever get new cpu's or buses
[09:24] <jrib> !sudo | nRkiSt
[09:24] <ubotu> nRkiSt: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[09:24] <goodgerster> yurimxpxman: use the mount command, google for details
[09:24] <anirudha> r_rehashed, Okay, but if there is a website that on which I watch videos with Windows Media Player. What software on Ubuntu should I have to watch those videos.
[09:24] <Alin4leX> hello
[09:24] <TruthElixirX> How do I install a boot loader correctly?
[09:24] <adaptr> anirudha: there are plugins for firefox
[09:24] <goodgerster> anirudha: use VLC
[09:24] <Juan> yurimxpxman, get bchunk to cconvert to iso
[09:25] <adaptr> !grub | TruthElixirX
[09:25] <ubotu> TruthElixirX: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[09:25] <Alin4leX> any AMD AM2 user ?
[09:25] <jrib> yurimxpxman: use bchunk
[09:25] <yurimxpxman> goodgerster: from my understanding, the mount command can't mount BIN/CUE files
[09:25] <jrib> !anyone | Alin4leX
[09:25] <ubotu> Alin4leX: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[09:25] <goodgerster> yurimxpxman: pay attention to the people screaming "BCHUNK" at you then
[09:25] <stefg> yurimxpxman: google for cdemu
[09:25] <roxlu> Does someone knows a good "colorpicker" for ubuntu/linux?
[09:25] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: is there another disk in your system, or is it a SATA disk ? does it have windows on it ?
[09:25] <goodgerster> roxlu, I recommend agave
[09:25] <moocowmoocowmoo> So I have the line "sudo smbmount $SHARE $SMBMP" in my shell script for backup... is there a way to bypass the sudo so i dont have password prompt?
[09:25] <Alin4leX> Does anyone have AMD AM2 mainboard?
[09:26] <TruthElixirX> SATA, brand new HDD, and I already tried that tutorial the bot just linked me too.
[09:26] <unique> how can i write my dmesg report in a file?
[09:26] <unique> posted to a file
[09:26] <bjames> adaptr: this isn't a high-performance system I'm building, but I want it to be able to run video and other media, it doesn't need to record/encode anything either
[09:26] <nRkiSt> Ben thanks but that doesn't work. I was never prompted for a root passwd when I installed
[09:26] <adaptr> unique: it always is in a file: /var/log/dmesg
[09:26] <Juan> hi, i'm on ubuntu edgy and i have a webcam which works on my user account (admin), but it isn't even recognized on other accounts
[09:26] <n2diy> unique: it all ready is written, it is in /var/logs
[09:26] <goodgerster> nRkiSt: yes, ubuntu doesn't have a root password by default. you need to create one using "sudo passwd root"
[09:26] <bjames> adaptr: my main system is an AMD X2 3800, 3GB RAM, 500GB hard drive, NVidia 7800GT
[09:26] <unique> adaptr: yea i know but let say for another use... how can i write stuff like that to a file?
[09:26] <bjames> ;)
[09:26] <jrib> nRkiSt: read the link from ubotu
[09:26] <adaptr> bjames: as I said: sure, if you want to run a mythtv box then it'll probably do fine - but be sure to check the video performance, and it may be agoo didea to get a better video card afterwards
[09:26] <unique> dmesg was just an example.. :b
[09:27] <TruthElixirX> Could it be possible my mobo is bad or something? Anyway to test that?
[09:27] <anirudha> adaptr, goodgerster , r_rehashed, Thanks everyone, I'll try it out! = )
[09:27] <adaptr> bjames: but then, you can always do that later, so I don't really understand your original question
[09:27] <goodgerster> good grief, this room goes fast
[09:27] <roxlu> goodgerster: thanx! (you're a webdeveloper?)
[09:27] <adaptr> unique: write what into a file ?> the output from a command ?
[09:27] <goodgerster> roxlu: er, ya
[09:27] <roxlu> working with ubuntu?
[09:27] <Juan> i'm on edgy and i have a webcam which works on my user account (admin), but it isn't even recognized on other accounts; how do i get it to work on all accounts?
[09:27] <unique> adaptr: yes
[09:27] <Caleb> if someone can help me with my sound, please speak to me
[09:28] <goodgerster> roxlu: yes. there's also a number of firefox plugins which are more specifically geared to colour picking
[09:28] <stefg> !sound | Caleb
[09:28] <ubotu> Caleb: 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
[09:28] <adaptr> Juan: admin is *not* a normal user account
[09:28] <Juan> i know
[09:28] <adaptr> unique: run_file > filename
[09:28] <Caleb> i know
[09:28] <bjames> adaptr: the original question was is the CPU good enough for the codecs (I have no experience with Semprons) so I was just looking for a finger in the air "I've got one and it runs mp4, Xvid, etc, fine for me"
[09:28] <goodgerster> roxlu: but agave does colour scheme generation and such
[09:28] <Juan> but i want to use the webcam with all user accounts
[09:28] <roxlu> goodgerster: oke thanx! which editor do you use?
[09:28] <adaptr> unique: man bash, rute user's guide (google for it)
[09:28] <jrib> Juan: check the groups that your first account is part of.  Check what the others lack.  Probably plugdev (guessing)?
[09:28] <Caleb> its other prblem sorry
[09:28] <goodgerster> roxlu: I use Bluefish and/or Gedit
[09:28] <yurimxpxman> whomever recommended bchunk: bchunk seems to be working perfectly. Thanks to whomever recommended it! =D
[09:29] <Caleb> in my case is that the center/lfe speaker are conected to the mic conection
[09:29] <goodgerster> yurimxpxman: that was about five people
[09:29] <goodgerster> :P
[09:29] <bjames> adaptr: if the mobo gfx sucks I can always get a card as you say, so it was just the codec question (I don't want to have to get a gfx card and CPU)
[09:29] <roxlu> goodgerster: did you use jedit?
[09:29] <yurimxpxman> LOL
[09:29] <adaptr> bjames: well, semprons do have smaller caches, but streaming video isn't about cacheing anyway - I have an athlon 64 3200+ which will run about anything
[09:29] <Caleb> because my center/lfe conection is broken
[09:29] <goodgerster> roxlu: never heard of it

[09:30] <Sir-Sid[Linux] > How do I tell it not to use one
[09:30] <toty> coz_: is it safe to delete the whole .icons directory>
[09:30] <Sir-Sid[Linux] > if it isnt necesarry
[09:30] <Caleb> do you understand me ubotu
[09:30] <Caleb> ?
[09:30] <TruthElixirX> Are there any alternatives to GRUB?
[09:30] <goodgerster> bjames: you can do that with any other architecture windows runs on
[09:30] <jrib> ubotu: tell Caleb about yourself
[09:30] <adaptr> bjames: okay, well if you already have the sempron system, why ask ? go  try it out !
[09:30] <LiquidScythe> hey
[09:30] <LiquidScythe> umm
[09:30] <coz_> toty, there should be no need to do that why? what is happening?
[09:30] <adaptr> !Lilo | TruthElixirX
[09:30] <ubotu> TruthElixirX: lilo is an alternative [Li] nux Boot[Lo] ader. Note: it is recommended that you use GRUB on Ubuntu instead.
[09:30] <jrib> TruthElixirX: lilo
[09:30] <bjames> I don't have a Sempron system
[09:30] <LiquidScythe> so if i get 6.6 it wont be that different than 6.10
[09:30] <goodgerster> TruthElixirX: yes, but the alternative (lilo) is shite and is unlikely to work in any case. stick with grub
[09:30] <LiquidScythe> like what will i be missing out on
[09:30] <Caleb> jrib: can yo help me?
[09:30] <LiquidScythe> i just want ubuntu with xgl installed
[09:30] <LiquidScythe> thats all

[09:31] <TruthElixirX> GRUB isn't working
[09:31] <jrib> Caleb: what's the question?
[09:31] <adaptr> bjames: I know
[09:31] <goodgerster> LiquidScythe: XGL is horrid, get 6.10 and use AIGXL which is built-in
[09:31] <TruthElixirX> I can't get anything to work
[09:31] <bjames> adaptr: (and a 2.66GHz P4 laptop, but I don't count that)

[09:31] <TruthElixirX> IT isn't there, or so it appears
[09:31] <coz_> toty, mmm doesn't sound correct, i assume you highlighted the cursors youwant in gcursor?
[09:32] <TruthElixirX> I haven't aqcutally seen it

[09:32] <jrib> Caleb: oh, no sorry I don't know anything about that
[09:32] <TruthElixirX> but I assume it is
[09:32] <TruthElixirX> I've tried the walk throughs

[09:32] <gandalfcome> I download the NVIDIA driver from NVIDIA install it. At first it works but after reboot it tells me that the kernel module is not loaded and x doesnt start
[09:32] <nRkiSt> how do I esit sudoers file if i'm not root?
[09:32] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: what have you tried so far ? it takes only 10 minutes to troubleshoot a grub installation

[09:32] <yurimxpxman> have any of you actually used PCSX before? I can't get it to load the ROM

[09:32] <LiquidScythe> OK IM REDOWNLOADING 6.10
[09:32] <kitche> nRkiSt: the password that sudo is asking for is your user password not the password that will be roots

[09:32] <Juan> yurimxpxman, use epsxe
[09:32] <jrib> nRkiSt: sudo visudo

[09:32] <Juan> i'm on edgy and i have a webcam which works on my user account (admin), but it isn't even recognized on other accounts; how do i get it to work on all accounts?
[09:32] <toty> coz_: and i get all the other icons but just not the busy one in the themes
[09:32] <Caleb> jrib: if you know someone that can help me
[09:33] <goodgerster> gandalfcome: google for "edgy nvidia" and do the kernel module step this time
[09:33] <fastly1> anyone here know how to mount my built-in memorystick reader?
[09:33] <goodgerster> LiquidScythe: shut up
[09:33] <TruthElixirX> I tried the "https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows" tutorial, and no, I cannot boot
[09:33] <fastly1> vaio laptop
[09:33] <toty> coz_: ok i
[09:33] <toty> coz_: ok i'll try
[09:33] <coz_> toty, mm yeah that doesn't sound right unless you uninstalled the default theme
[09:33] <goodgerster> TruthElixirX: what error do you get?
[09:33] <fastly1> any idea how to find out what to mount?
[09:33] <jrib> Juan: did you try what I suggested before?
[09:33] <gandalfcome> goodgerster, thanks will try that
[09:33] <stefg> TruthElixirX: define: cannot boot'
[09:33] <TruthElixirX> "Please insert boot media and hit a key or restart."
[09:33] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: what does "cannot boot" mean ? do you get to see the grub menu ?
[09:33] <Juan> jrib, yeah, they just lack admin things
[09:33] <Juan> which i don't intend to give
[09:33] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: remove the Ubuntu CD first
[09:33] <gRaCiOsO> where can i see a route of a usb device connected ?
[09:33] <TruthElixirX> I get a black screen with those words on it after installing Ubuntu and restarting
[09:33] <goodgerster> TruthElixirX: check your BIOS to ensure it's booting off the hard disk grub is installed on
[09:33] <TruthElixirX> I did
[09:34] <jrib> nRkiSt: have you read the rootsudo link from ubotu?  There is no need to have a root password
[09:34] <TruthElixirX> ?I mean, I did remove the CD
[09:34] <TruthElixirX> And, I have checked the BIOS
[09:34] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: so that is your BIOS sayig that ?

[09:35] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: re-boot the install CD and open a terminal
[09:35] <__mikem> lol @ goodgerster
[09:35] <Odysseu1> Haha. Yeah.
[09:35] <TruthElixirX> I'm on the install/live CD now
[09:35] <goodgerster> TruthElixirX: that's because grub never got installed *refers to adaptr*
[09:35] <goodgerster> __mikem: :)
[09:35] <TruthElixirX> Terminal opened
[09:36] <adaptr> goodgerster: of course it was installed - just not to his boot drive
[09:36] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: okay, now run grub
[09:36] <TruthElixirX> So where is it then? I only have one HDD
[09:36] <goodgerster> adaptr: not to the drive the BIOS is booting to, and he says he checked it
[09:36] <gRaCiOsO> where can i see a route of a usb device connected ?
[09:36] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: SATA, right ? and on an unsupported interface ?
[09:36] <adaptr> !lsusb | gRaCiOsO
[09:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lsusb - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:36] <n2diy> gRaCiOsO: /media?
[09:36] <stefg> TruthElixirX: it's in the boot-sect prolly, but you need it on MBR
[09:36] <adaptr> sjeez - useless bot!
[09:37] <TruthElixirX> SATA, yes. Unsupported interface? Not sure what you mean.
[09:37] <Sir-Sid[Linux] > How do you tell ubuntu that you dont need to use a gpg key
[09:37] <jrib> Sir-Sid[Linux] : what is asking you for one?
[09:37] <kitche> Sir-Sid[Linux] : for what?
[09:37] <gandalfcome> goodgerster, I think I found the error
[09:37] <goodgerster> Sir-Sid[Linux] : how do you know you don't? context please
[09:37] <TruthElixirX> just type "grub" in terminal to run it right? Done
[09:37] <goodgerster> gandalfcome: yes?
[09:37] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: what you are experiencing - that's what I mean :) grub doesn't see the drive as hd0 (zero), so it doesn't install there
[09:37] <Sir-Sid[Linux] > Its for the wine repo
[09:37] <Sir-Sid[Linux] > no key was given
[09:37] <ashika> Whats a good text editor with C syntax highlighting for ubuntu
[09:37] <Amadeo> Is there a way to completely turn off mouse acceleration without making your mouse incredibly slow?
[09:38] <goodgerster> Sir-Sid[Linux] : you can probably ignore that, but you do need a key
[09:38] <Sir-Sid[Linux] > I cant connect to the repo becaues I get an error
[09:38] <gRaCiOsO> adaptr,  i shows this Bus 001 Device 007: ID 22b8:4901 Motorola PCS i wanna see just the route where it is
[09:38] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: you have to install it by hand to (hd0), or possibly (hd1) or (hd2)
[09:38] <gandalfcome> goodgerster, I still had the nvidia-glx from synaptic installed and this module was probably loaded and not my downloaded driver
[09:38] <adaptr> gRaCiOsO: route ?
[09:38] <jrib> ashika: gedit, vim
[09:38] <gandalfcome> goodgerster, im rebooting now to see if it works
[09:38] <goodgerster> Amadeo: no, disabling mouse acceleration will disable your mouse... that is the meaning of acceleration - the transition from not moving to moving
[09:38] <TruthElixirX> I'm not sure what you mean as far as what am I experiencing. When trying to boot I jsut get "please insert boot media and reboot". Thats really al lthat happens
[09:38] <gRaCiOsO> adaptr,  yes
[09:38] <goodgerster> gandalfcome: wrong
[09:38] <TruthElixirX> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[09:38] <TruthElixirX> follwo that right?
[09:38] <Sir-Sid[Linux] > goodgerster: does every repo need a key then?
[09:38] <n2diy> ashika: gedit? but you have to specify whick language you want it to check.
[09:38] <kimmern> how do i exit x-server?
[09:39] <goodgerster> Sir-Sid[Linux] : the ones whose admins know anything about security, yes
[09:39] <vakosel> jrib, everything is working fine!
[09:39] <jrib> vakosel: great
[09:39] <Lars_G> What was the dpkg-reconfigure method to change scripts called at initlevel?
[09:39] <ashika> n2diy: I said C
[09:39] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: the problem with grub and sata disks at the moment is tricky: grub does not see your drive as the same drive from the install CD as when it is booted to the HD - so it always gets it wrong....
[09:39] <goodgerster> gandalfcome: you need to install restricted kernel modules as per the guide
[09:39] <nRkiSt> COOL!!  Got it guys! Thanks for the help !!
[09:39] <LiquidScythe> :D
[09:39] <Amadeo> goodgerster: Isn't that what mouse sensitivity is?
[09:39] <goodgerster> nRkiSt: *waves*
[09:39] <n2diy> ashika: so?
[09:39] <vakosel> jr, i mean synaptic manager too! didnt use reload button :(
[09:39] <goodgerster> Amadeo: no, that doesn't seem to have any bearing on anything for me..
[09:39] <TruthElixirX> @adaptr: so what do I do exactly, or where do I read what to do?
[09:39] <adub_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1601/     <--- im getting weird compile errors for cowpatty
[09:39] <ashika> n2diy: OH you mean tell the program?
[09:39] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: it won't help, as ubuntu install would have done it right the first time if that's your problem
[09:39] <n2diy> ashika: yes
[09:40] <putz`> http://img238.imageshack.us/img238/900/0114071434wx9.jpg
[09:40] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: you run grub, and experiment
[09:40] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: did you run grub yet ?
[09:40] <kimmern> i'm installing new video drivers, and need to exit x-server first..si how?
[09:40] <goodgerster> *breathes*
[09:40] <jrib> putz`: what is that?
[09:40] <goodgerster> kimmern: type ctrl-alt-backspace
[09:40] <adaptr> kimmern: no need to exit
[09:40] <Snake> Anyone know how I can manage videos on my ipod with linux?
[09:40] <putz`> jrib, a corrupt openfirmware boot screen
[09:40] <Lars_G> Bipolar: I know you.
[09:40] <goodgerster> but yes, adaptr is correct, you can reboot it later
[09:40] <gandalfcome> goodgerster, I didnt find with edgy nvidia other than xgl beryl stuff, will try howto edgy nvidia
[09:40] <TruthElixirX> I went to the terminal typed "grub" and now it just shows "grub >" I would really love to experiment, but I have no idea what I am experimenting with...
[09:40] <putz`> jrib, happens every time I try to boot into ubuntu
[09:40] <goodgerster> gandalfcome: yes, I said that ages ago
[09:40] <Amadeo> goodgerster: Mouse acceleration to me (and in Windows) has always been what users can tweak in order to adjust the rate in which the mouse increases in speed from a slow to fast movement...with it off, the mouse would have a continuous rate of travel...with it on, it varies depending on the speed you move it...I would rather not have it change and stay constant
[09:41] <putz`> yaboot settings are correct (as far as I can tell)
[09:41] <vakosel> jrib, are you interested in python programming?
[09:41] <kitche> TruthElixirX: with grub sata drives are sd instead of hd unless they are running as pata the grub manula as more about grub and Sata drives
[09:41] <Snake> Anyone know how I can manage videos on my ipod with linux?
[09:41] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: then type: "root (hd," EXACTLY as shown, and press TAB
[09:41] <gandalfcome> goodgerster, no you said search for edgy nvidia
[09:41] <jrib> vakosel: I like python yes, but we should continue this in #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:41] <gandalfcome> goodgerster, not howto ;-)
[09:41] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: r-o-o-t-space-(-h-d-zero-comma-TAB
[09:41] <nRkiSt> as long as I'm here, what's up with 'make'? When I tried to make mozlugger, it complained that it couldn't find make! ubuntu doesn't ship gcc?
[09:41] <goodgerster> Amadeo: that's ludicrous, you're asking the cursor to move at a completely arbitrary speed irregardless of the speed of the mouse
[09:42] <TruthElixirX> Error 23: Error while parsing number

[09:42] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: sorry, it's either hd TAB or hd0 TAB

[09:43] <jshadias> goodgerster: acceleration is almost necessary with big resolutions and the built-in laptop "mice"
[09:43] <bertrand> really ? ok. i'm having troubles with root authentification in the Konsole on Kubuntu. When the password is requested, i can't enter anything so i can't be root !
[09:43] <TruthElixirX> Error 21: Selected disk does not exist
[09:43] <TruthElixirX> is what I keep getting
[09:43] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: what happens
[09:43] <goodgerster> Amadeo: in ubuntu the mouse moves in the direction you move it and proportionally to the speed at which you move it
[09:43] <stefg> nRkiSt: right
[09:43] <jrib> nRkiSt: sudo apt-get install mozplugger  should work if you have enabled the universe repository
[09:43] <abelle> I'll think about it
[09:43] <goodgerster> Amadeo: windows also does that
[09:43] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: type root (hd and then press TAB
[09:43] <goodgerster> Amadeo: as does OS X
[09:43] <Amadeo> goodgerster: Yes, but acceleration changes the speed between slow and fast movements..
[09:43] <yanger> is there a reason why k3b fails file verification in ubuntu?
[09:43] <Amadeo> it varies as you move it
[09:43] <yanger> says can't find source file
[09:43] <Amadeo> That's what I don't want

[09:44] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: did you run grub as root ?
[09:44] <dad> thanks
[09:44] <Amadeo> goodgerster: If you turn it all the way down in Ubuntu/Linux, the mouse gets too slow
[09:44] <stefg> !nvidia | vakosel
[09:44] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: quit grub and run "sudo grub"
[09:44] <ubotu> vakosel: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:44] <jrib> !nvidia | vakosel
[09:44] <yanger> vakosel, apt-get install nvidia-glx, modify xorg.conf
[09:44] <goodgerster> vakosel: google for "edgy nvidia" and follow the first result
[09:44] <yanger> vakosel, does not work for everyone
[09:44] <goodgerster> Amadeo: move your mouse faster, then
[09:45] <TruthElixirX> Yes
[09:45] <jrib> goodgerster: that actually has instructions for installing beryl :P
[09:45] <Amadeo> goodgerster:  You're very helpful
[09:45] <goodgerster> jrib: yes, but it does the nvidia drivers first
[09:45] <bluefox83> ok, i just edited the samba config file (smb.conf) as best i can, now how to i start samba, or is there anything i have to start in the first place?
[09:45] <vakosel> great community ! thx a lot guys !
[09:45] <jrib> goodgerster: unstable ones,  google has failed us!
[09:45] <bertrand> have you heard my question ?
[09:45] <goodgerster> Amadeo: well, you're rather less helpful in expecting the mouse to not do what you've told it to do, i.e. move at the rate it's moved
[09:45] <goodgerster> jrib: stable also, methinks
[09:45] <mnk0> anyone know about settin up button options for a gaming mouse?
[09:45] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: so when you type up to hd and then press TAB grub doesn't show you ANY drives ? that's your problem right there, then...
[09:45] <stefg> !samba | bluefox83
[09:45] <ubotu> bluefox83: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[09:46] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: because it can't install itself anywhere either
[09:46] <adub_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1601/     <--- im getting weird compile errors for cowpatty
[09:46] <Amadeo> goodgerster: That's why they make high DPI mice, such as 2000dpi, so the rate of cursor motion is faster than the physical speed the mouse travels...
[09:46] <bertrand> hello, is my english so bad ?
[09:46] <TruthElixirX> wait wait. I think I got it this time
[09:46] <Snake> Anyone know how I can manage videos on my ipod with linux?
[09:46] <jrib> !root | bertrand
[09:46] <ubotu> bertrand: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[09:46] <TruthElixirX> Something different happened
[09:46] <LordUltimaDavid> i am having dvd burning problems, here is my brasero log http://pastebin.ca/316638
[09:46] <goodgerster> Amadeo: move your mouse faster, fiddle with X, buy a high-res mouse or enable acceleration
[09:46] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: it should say: possible disks are:"
[09:46] <bertrand> ok i'll see there
[09:47] <Tox> my printer it dznt print even if it recognized and shows print job what i have to do ?
[09:47] <goodgerster> Snake: afaik you have to move them over in nautilus and hope
[09:47] <Amadeo> goodgerster: Nevermind, you don't understand how mice work
[09:47] <jrib> bertrand: when you type the password, it doesn't show that you typed anything, but it is reading it in anyway
[09:47] <goodgerster> Amadeo: you don't understand how gnome works
[09:47] <Snake> goodgerster: that wont work with the ipod, it would work with your standard flash based player
[09:47] <PwndMopar> So, Edgy only offers old school JDK releases? D;
[09:47] <goodgerster> Amadeo: just fiddle until you bork it sufficiently to make it work, that usually works :)
[09:47] <Snake> goodgerster: but the ipod contains a database that would need to be updated ;)
[09:47] <Amadeo> goodgerster: You just told me it's the same in Windows and OSX..it's not :P
[09:47] <TruthElixirX> Okay, I was re-reading that tutorial. and I tried writing to the MBR instead of the linux partition, and every thing succedded when I typed "set up" this time.
[09:48] <TruthElixirX> Should I restart and see what happens?
[09:48] <goodgerster> Snake: yeah, but one can but hope with video ipods
[09:48] <Snake> Uhhh... ill pass...
[09:48] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: okay, then you should check the disks in grub's config first - do that now, it'll save you a reboot
[09:48] <TruthElixirX> how do I do that? "find /boot/grub/stage1"?
[09:48] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: cat /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:48] <gRaCiOsO> someone has connected sometimes a motorola v3 in ubuntu and could help me?
[09:48] <goodgerster> Snake: I personally use windows for my ipod
[09:48] <MA77iAS> hi ppl
[09:49] <jrib> Snake: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/iPodVideo ?
[09:49] <Amadeo> goodgerster: It seems the terminology in Gnome is backwards
[09:49] <Lord_Apex> Anyone have ubuntu on a mac book?
[09:49] <Snake> goodgerster: I don't have windows ;-)
[09:49] <MA77iAS> need som help with mounting hdd
[09:49] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: use less for a scrollable view
[09:49] <Snake> jrib: Thanks! I ll check it out
[09:49] <bertrand> okay, but the password i specified when installing doesn't work anyway; well, i'll see the url you typed then perhaps tell you what is still wrong
[09:49] <goodgerster> Amadeo: exercise your right as user and file a bug then
[09:49] <TruthElixirX> Error 12: Invalid device requested
[09:49] <bastiq> Anyone know why dpkg complains about /var/lib/dpkg/available?
[09:49] <goodgerster> Amadeo: you will be told that you are wrong/backwards
[09:49] <MA77iAS> i get error : /dev/sdb1 is allready mounted or /mnt/path is busy
[09:49] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: invalid device requested
[09:50] <Lord_Apex> MA77iAS: then its mounted or you using it
[09:50] <adub_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1601/     <--- im getting weird compile errors for cowpatty
[09:50] <goodgerster> anyone not being served?
[09:50] <Amadeo> goodgerster: Well, Gnome is the only thing I've ever used that has it backwards like this :P  Even Quake (Carmack) has it the other way around
[09:50] <goodgerster> apart from adub?
[09:50] <bastiq> o/
[09:50] <PwndMopar> i r need the helps pls
[09:50] <MA77iAS> Lord_Apex: nops.. its not mounted.. and the mountpath is not used
[09:50] <Lord_Apex> MA77: did you already mount it and want to umount it?
[09:50] <goodgerster> Amadeo: take that up with the developers, please. it works for me
[09:50] <goodgerster> next!
[09:50] <goodgerster> PwndMopar: what's the trouble?
[09:50] <omong_kosong> hi all

[09:51] <PwndMopar> goodgerster, I'd like to install JDK 1.5.0_10
[09:51] <bastiq> dpkg complains about the file /var/lib/dpkg/available when i try to remove, install or anything else with apt or dpkg
[09:51] <Amadeo> goodgerster: It's not a huge deal to me as long as it works, but I don't know why you have to be so abrasive..this is supposed to be a help channel and open community :)
[09:51] <MA77iAS> Lord_Apex: its not in /media/
[09:51] <goodgerster> Amadeo: yes, but I gave several answers a while ago
[09:51] <goodgerster> PwndMopar: what's the problem with installign?
[09:51] <roxlu> does someone knows a good util/app to copy file to a remote webserver?
[09:51] <Lord_Apex> MA77: is it listed when you type mount
[09:52] <PwndMopar> I can get it to extract, anyways, but I don't know how to setup the environment variables (Or the equiv of it)
[09:52] <goodgerster> roxlu: GNOME has inbuilt FTP capabilities

[09:53] <yurimxpxman> sorry, I didn't realize it'd do that
[09:53] <bertrand> thank you jrib, i have found how to set a root passwd, it's allright now :)
[09:53] <PwndMopar> Edgey
[09:53] <Seveas> stefg, ?
[09:53] <MA77iAS> Lord_Apex: sdb1 is confed in fstab
[09:53] <stefg> Seveas: sorry, i suspected a 16 kB paste
[09:53] <Lord_Apex> MA77: where do you have it mounting to then?
[09:53] <MA77iAS> Lord_Apex: sdb1 is not listed with cmd mount
[09:53] <jrib> bertrand: note that you don't actually need to set one, you can use sudo for everything
[09:53] <Seveas> heh
[09:53] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: how bad is that that it doesn't show up?
[09:53] <yurimxpxman> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1602/
[09:53] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: do you have the file or not ?
[09:53] <pianoboy4333> I need help killing a program on another tty
[09:53] <MA77iAS> Lord_Apex: it should be mounted in /opt/sdb
[09:53] <goodgerster> PwndMopar: I suggest you try the documentation that presumably is on the website with the package you downloaded, as I've always used the repo
[09:53] <goodgerster> sorry
[09:54] <eni191> whois goodgerster
[09:54] <jrib> pianoboy4333: can't you just use the PID?
[09:54] <adaptr> pianoboy4333: kill
[09:54] <goodgerster> eni191: hey ho
[09:54] <PwndMopar> :/
[09:54] <TruthElixirX> I don't guess? Is it on the live CD? Do I need to get it somewhere? I'm new to this.
[09:54] <PwndMopar> Alright.
[09:54] <yurimxpxman> do any of you know what's causing this problem? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1602/
[09:54] <bertrand> to use apt-get in konsole, i must be root, and i didn't succeed in the authentification
[09:54] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: run "ls -l /boot/grub", and see what it says...
[09:54] <Lord_Apex> MA77: what happens when you do a mount -a
[09:54] <LordUltimaDavid> i am having dvd burning problems, here is my brasero log http://pastebin.ca/316638
[09:54] <goodgerster> bertrand: you need to use sudo and your password
[09:54] <pianoboy4333> adaptr: jrib: I tried killall blobAndConquer, but that's not working, is there a way to just totally end it, or is that killall...
[09:54] <jrib> bertrand: no, you can just do this:  sudo apt-get install irssi
[09:55] <r_rehashed> hey, how to come out of git!
[09:55] <adaptr> pianoboy4333: kill takes the PID as argument
[09:55] <r_rehashed> ?
[09:55] <jrib> pianoboy4333: kill -9  ?
[09:55] <pianoboy4333> adaptr: how would I find the pid
[09:55] <MA77iAS> it give me the error : mount: /dev/sdb1 is allready mounted or /opt/sdb is busy
[09:55] <TruthElixirX> ls: /boot/grub: No such file or directory
[09:55] <adaptr> pianoboy4333: you look in ps or top
[09:55] <bertrand> okay thanks
[09:55] <Lars_G> What gcc is kernel on edgy compiled with? 4.0 or 4.1?
[09:55] <goodgerster> pianoboy4333: press alt-f2 and type xkill then click the window you want to kill
[09:55] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: is you on an x86 system, or a Mac ?
[09:55] <goodgerster> Lars_G: 4.1 I think, but don't quote me
[09:55] <MA77iAS> Lord_Apex: it give me the error : mount: /dev/sdb1 is allready mounted or /opt/sdb is busy
[09:55] <Lord_Apex> MA77:  I would comment out that fstab line for that drive.  Reboot
[09:55] <TruthElixirX> x86
[09:55] <jrib> bertrand: sudo uses your user password
[09:55] <tjansson> I have this strange problem. I just finish moving my old files fra my previous ubuntu installation to my new computer but for some reason log in - the screen goes black and then the login screen returns.
[09:55] <goodgerster> Lars_G: it's the same as the one that comes with it, anyway
[09:55] <MA77iAS> Lord_Apex: did that
[09:55] <Lord_Apex> MA77:  then try to mount it manually
[09:55] <pianoboy4333> goodgerster: I can't, it took up the whole screen, so it froze the screen
[09:55] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: oh wait - you booted off the livecd, right ?
[09:56] <MA77iAS> Lord_Apex: have done that too
[09:56] <TruthElixirX> Correct
[09:56] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: sorry, my mind must be on Sunday
[09:56] <goodgerster> pianoboy4333: press ctrl-alt-backspace
[09:56] <TruthElixirX> No problem.
[09:56] <bastiq> E: Seb-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned error code (2)
[09:56] <blade> Is it a boot idea to install Ubuntu on my external hard drive instead of my internal hard drive? Is that safe?
[09:56] <bastiq> that's what i get :/
[09:56] <blade> *good
[09:56] <pianoboy4333> goodgerster: I don't want to do that, cause then I'll lose all that's open
[09:56] <LordUltimaDavid> i am having dvd burning problems, here is my brasero log http://pastebin.ca/316643
[09:56] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: please paste the output of fdisk -L /dev/hda somewhere (not here!)
[09:56] <bertrand> ok, i understand, now i will use this way
[09:56] <Lord_Apex> MA77: Well if its commented out in fstab it shouldnt mount there for it shouldnt be busy.  I dont know what else to do.
[09:56] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: I want to see your disk layout
[09:56] <goodgerster> pianoboy4333: that isn't much worse than having your computer frozen
[09:56] <gRaCiOsO> someone has connected sometimes a motorola v3 in ubuntu and could help me?
[09:56] <TruthElixirX> okay
[09:56] <yurimxpxman> does anyone know the cause of this problem? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1602/
[09:56] <n2diy> blade: can you boot from your ext. drive?
[09:57] <pianoboy4333> goodgerster: well, I can kill it somehow, I just don't know how

[09:57] <New> hi everyone, quick question, can ubuntu tell me exactly which video card is in my computer?
[09:57] <adaptr> gRaCiOsO: *what* is a motorola v3 ?
[09:57] <Lord_Apex> MA77:  do a man umount ,  and read how to force it to unmount
[09:57] <goodgerster> tjansson, you need to reinstall and select a different username, then copy your files over... it's a complicated problem
[09:57] <pianoboy4333> jrib: how do you scroll down with top?
[09:57] <Bipolar> hi Lars_G
[09:57] <yurimxpxman> New: go to System > Administration > Device Manager
[09:57] <adaptr> New: lspci
[09:57] <blade> n2diy I think so.. I can run games off of it and such.
[09:57] <jrib> pianoboy4333: use htop, or just use system  >administration > system monitor
[09:57] <Bipolar> Lars_G: missed your msg :)
[09:57] <Lars_G> Is there no way to check?
[09:57] <fremen> how do I install a PCMCIA sound card for my laptop?
[09:57] <Lars_G> Bipolar: sup?

[09:57] <New> thanks
[09:57] <yurimxpxman> anyone know the cause of this problem in epsxe? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1602/
[09:57] <bertrand> a last post,  i find linux nice :D i have been using it for one day  !
[09:57] <adaptr> gRaCiOsO: and you have tried the usual programs ?
[09:57] <goodgerster> pianoboy4333: try using ctrl-alt-f1 to open a new screen, log in, "startx" then kill it using task manager
[09:57] <n2diy> blade: If you can't boot off it, Ubuntu won't play.
[09:57] <Lord_Apex> Anyone have Ubuntu installed on a mac book?
[09:58] <MA77iAS> Lord_Apex: hmm yeh. thats should be that way.. made a manually mount for the first time , didnt work.. made fstab to take care of the mount.. didnt work.. same error whatever i do
[09:58] <bruenig> it is the celestial teapot guy
[09:58] <pianoboy4333> goodgerster: how many times do I have to tell you I don't want to do that
[09:58] <gRaCiOsO> adaptr,  sure i tried it but i cant see my movil files
[09:58] <gRaCiOsO> it doesnt connect
[09:58] <Nielsken> hi is there someone that can help a noob with installing tar.gz file for a wifi usb stick
[09:58] <Bipolar> Lars_G: watching tv, just have the laptop hooked up for the heck of it :)
[09:58] <adaptr> then I'm out of ideas - sorry
[09:58] <blade> n2diy: But since I can run games and exe files off of it, doesn't that mean that I can boot off it?
[09:58] <pianoboy4333> jrib: I can't use sys. m onitor, cause that screen is frozen, since the prog crashed, which took up the whole screen
[09:58] <goodgerster> pianoboy4333: ....you didn't tell me that, you said you didn't want to kill the existing copy of X. I then told you to open a new one
[09:58] <roxlu> hmm getting "Bad file handle" when I try to copy an image... some advise?
[09:58] <TruthElixirX> adaptr : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1604/
[09:58] <Lord_Apex> MA77:  is that disc partitioned up or is it just 1 partition?
[09:58] <tjansson> goodgerster: I did reinstall and copied all the files over and then "chown -R tjansson:tjansson" on my home folder. For some reason it will not open the graphics. However I made a test user and he can easily get inside kde.
[09:58] <goodgerster> pianoboy4333: read it properly
[09:58] <n2diy> blade: nope.
[09:58] <jrib> pianoboy4333: k, use htop  or  ps -ef | grep -i blob
[09:58] <adaptr> Nielsken: you usually only want to do that when there is no built-in driver available
[09:59] <Lars_G> Bipolar: I'm suffering right now, I missed my paxil two days in a row, and I'm suffering the side effects :/
[09:59] <pianoboy4333> jrib: I don't have htop, is it in the repos?
[09:59] <goodgerster> tjansson: you forgot chmod, methinks
[09:59] <jrib> pianoboy4333: yeah
[09:59] <Nielsken> adaptr: there is a linux driver
[09:59] <MA77iAS> Lord_Apex: its 1 partion at the hdd
[09:59] <roxlu> goodgerster: did you ever get a "Bad file handle" while copying a file to a ftp ?
[09:59] <Nielsken> adaptr: but I don't know the files to install
[09:59] <gRaCiOsO> adaptr,  ok thanks
[09:59] <goodgerster> roxlu: nope, sorry
[09:59] <blade> n2diy How do I find out if I can boot off it then?
[09:59] <adaptr> Nielsken: first see if Ubuntu has it already
[09:59] <pianoboy4333> jrib: the ps command worked, I have two numbers, which should I use with kill, the first or second?
[09:59] <yurimxpxman> anybody know the cause of this problem in epsxe? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1602/
[09:59] <Lars_G> goodgerster: It actually seems to be 4.0, i'm compiling kqemu module, it dies in fire when modprobing a module compiled with 4.1, but accepts one done with 4.0
[09:59] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: looking at it now
[09:59] <Bipolar> Lars_G: my wife takes that. nasty withdrawl
[09:59] <n2diy> blade: is it a usb drive?
[09:59] <TruthElixirX> adaptr : going to restroom. So I might not respond for a few seconds... :p
[09:59] <gRaCiOsO> someone have connected sometimes a movil motorola v3 in ubuntu and could help me?
[09:59] <heydabop> How do I download a .deb file, and automaticly download all of it's dependincies?
[10:00] <Nielsken> its a driver for my wt-2000usb stick
[10:00] <adub_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1601/     <--- im getting weird compile errors for cowpatty
[10:00] <blade> n2diy: Aye, it is
[10:00] <Nielsken> nu ubuntu driver
[10:00] <jrib> pianoboy4333: one probably corresponds to your grep command
[10:00] <goodgerster> Lars_G: the problem being?
[10:00] <tjansson> goodgerster: how is that? I copied with "cp -a". What rights do I need to set to get to make it work?
[10:00] <tjansson> goodgerster: is there a file that should be writetable?
[10:00] <jshadias> i'm trying to send and receive with a usb->serial(db9) convertor. i confirmed the serial cable working on its own, but i don't really know where to start with this convertor. dmesg shows a usb device connected but lsusb is all zeroes.
[10:00] <Lars_G> Bipolar: Yes, but at least i get one full day before withdrawal, with effexor I got two hours to miss the pill before I'd gone down
[10:00] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: erm.. try fdisk -l, *like the output tells you to*
[10:00] <goodgerster> tjansson: I'm not sure. but all dot-files should be writeable by the user
[10:00] <n2diy> blade: ok, go into your system bios, and see if you can change the usb drive to be first in the boot sequence.

[10:00] <heydabop> How do I download a .deb file, and automaticly download all of it's dependincies?
[10:00] <fremen> how do I install a PCMCIA sound card for my laptop?
[10:01] <goodgerster> ublender: no, it's non-addictive
[10:01] <jrib> heydabop: use apt-get
[10:01] <heydabop> K.
[10:01] <pianoboy4333> jrib: one's the pid, one's the ppid, which do I use?
[10:01] <jrib> pianoboy4333: pid

[10:01] <heydabop> apt-get [link to /deb]
[10:01] <heydabop> Like that.
[10:01] <goodgerster> ublender: it's also not packaged in filthy smoke with carcinogens
[10:01] <Nielsken> adaptr: I don't really know, and also don't know where to find it
[10:01] <ublender> goodgerster: then why do people get withdrawal symptoms from it?
[10:01] <TruthElixirX> back... oops.. sorry

[10:01] <jrib> heydabop: no, what are you trying to install?
[10:01] <pianoboy4333> jrib: ok, it's still not killing it, what else should I try besideds ctrl alt bkspace
[10:01] <PwndMopar> I moved a file, and it didn't go where I had intended.  I actually have no idea where it went :P
[10:01] <jrib> pianoboy4333: kill -9 PID

[10:02] <n2diy> blade: just see if it is an option, don't set it as the first one yet.

[10:03] <adaptr> Nielsken: google doesn't know it
[10:03] <Lars_G> Bipolar: One thing I notice is paxil tends to almost eliminate phase two (cumulative effect) on my ritalin, so I wonder if you felt something similar on Lexa pro.
[10:03] <heydabop> jrib: I'm trying to install kde-games.

[10:04] <heydabop> Thanks
[10:04] <PwndMopar> jrib, it didn't return anything.
[10:04] <jrib> heydabop: you should use adept or apt-get for everything
[10:04] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: okay, then just click on the hda1 icon that should be on the livecd's desktop
[10:04] <heydabop> Ok.

[10:05] <jrib> PwndMopar: you renamed it to "home"
[10:06] <blade> n2diy I have no idea why I was wanting to put it onto my external HD.. I'm wayy to tired to be doing this.
[10:06] <fremen> could somebody please help me? how do I install a PCMCIA sound card for my laptop?
[10:06] <bruenig> home isn't a directory, how is that lawl worthy
[10:06] <Gunslinger|Deags> ok so i installed ubuntu and it worked fine but not i turned my computer off and tried to start it up at a different time and it stops on both recovery mode and regular boot mode
[10:06] <adaptr> Nielsken:     *  Ralink  Semiconductor, you could google for linux support for that
[10:06] <goodgerster> fremen: plug it in, reboot and hope. beyond that, google
[10:06] <PwndMopar> Oh hell, I did rename it home, didn't I? XD
[10:06] <jrib> PwndMopar: also, java is in the repos
[10:06] <n2diy> blade: ok.
[10:06] <tyler_> can someone help me with installing vmware?
[10:06] <blade> I just remembered that I move my laptop around alot, thus, I unplug my external HD... so I'd lose whatever I was working on in the process.
[10:06] <PwndMopar> jrib, older version is
[10:06] <tyler_> i'm getting an error, "Unable to get the access rights of source file "./vmware-vix/bin"."
[10:06] <fremen> er, more correctly, how do I install the drivers for a PCMCIA based soundcard?
[10:06] <Nielsken> adaptr: on the air live website is a linux driver
[10:06] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: it might have, but if it got the partitions wrong (which is likely) then you'd only have to boot the livecd *again*
[10:07] <blade> n2diy Will I still be able to save files onto my external HD when I'm in Ubuntu?
[10:07] <jrib> PwndMopar: true
[10:07] <n2diy> blade: yes, that shouldn't be a problem.
[10:07] <Nielsken> adaptr: but I will see if I can finf something
[10:07] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: okay. I'll restart and see what happens.
[10:07] <goodgerster> fremen: have you tried google? the make and model of the card helps also
[10:07] <bruenig> blade, yes, assuming it has a compatible filesystem, i.e. pretty much anything except ntfs
[10:07] <blade> n2diy Sweetness.
[10:07] <adaptr> Nielsken: you could certainly try that, but there is no guarantee that it'll work with this kernel - unpack the targz and read the readme to see which kernel it supports
[10:07] <PwndMopar> How do I move files, now? :P  Since, I had the totally wrong command for it.
[10:07] <bruenig> PwndMopar, mv
[10:07] <zoidberg> hey guys i've got a question
[10:07] <PwndMopar> I used that, and it renamed it :P
[10:07] <zoidberg> i have an IPOD connected to my compputer
[10:07] <Gunslinger|Deags> ok so i installed ubuntu and it worked fine but no i turned my computer off and tried to start it up at a different (about a week later) time and it stops on both recovery mode and regular boot mode
[10:07] <jrib> PwndMopar: that's the right command.  But if a directory doesn't exist, it will rename it
[10:07] <goodgerster> zoidberg: ask it
[10:07] <Lars_G> Bipolar: can I msg you once?
[10:07] <PwndMopar> :O, I see
[10:07] <TruthElixirX> be back. Wish me luck. >.<
[10:08] <PwndMopar> Thanks.
[10:08] <goodgerster> zoidberg: and?
[10:08] <zoidberg> ubuntu recognizes but i want ot back up some files on it but it wont let me copy and paste files onto the ipod?
[10:08] <bruenig> PwndMopar, wha mv /path/to/whatever /path/to/new/whatever
[10:08] <tyler_> if someone could help me with installing vmware, could you message me?
[10:08] <Bipolar> Lars_G: sure
[10:08] <blade> n2diy Is it possible to use a flash drive to boot Ubuntu? I'm having a hard time locating a CD...
[10:08] <bruenig> PwndMopar, you needed to use /home in that command not home
[10:08] <Nielsken> adaptr: I will do that, thanks
[10:08] <jrib> PwndMopar: just use   ~
[10:09] <zoidberg> goodgerster: can u help me?
[10:09] <adaptr> blade: you can put puppy on a flash stick, then do the network install from that
[10:09] <PwndMopar> jrib, got it.  Thank you :]
[10:09] <tyler_> if someone could help me with installing vmware, could you message me?
[10:09] <kimmern> how can i exit x-server? im installing new video drivers
 ok so i installed ubuntu and it worked fine but no i turned my computer off and tried to start it up at a different (about a week later) time and it stops on both recovery mode and regular boot mode
[10:09] <goodgerster> zoidberg: sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[10:10] <tyler_> restart x with ctrl alt + backspace
[10:10] <johns^> tyler_: just write what the problem is
[10:10] <thisissean> Hello, I am on the Ubuntu Live CD right now and I'm trying to install Ubuntu without installing grub. (I already have grub installed for another Linux install and I want to just add Ubuntu to that one later) How do I install Ubuntu without installing Grub?
[10:10] <PwndMopar> jrib, you know anything about setting up environmental variables?
[10:10] <tyler_> i'm getting the error, Unable to get the access rights of source file "./vmware-vix/bin".
[10:10] <firebird619> I am going to be installing Ubuntu. What partitions are recommended aside from the default ones Ubuntu creates? I have 120 GB HDD and 256 MB for RAM.
[10:10] <jrib> kimmern: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop    "replace" start with "stop" to start it again
[10:10] <adub_> pcap.h what do i need to apt-get in for that
[10:10] <blade> adaptr So it'd work just like a CD? Hopefully?
[10:10] <goodgerster> zoidberg: find the line that mentions your ipod
[10:10] <tyler_> i have searched on the forumsa nd google and have found that othe rpeople have this problem but i havent seen a solution
[10:10] <adaptr> thisissean: you really want the alternative install CD for that
[10:10] <jrib> !nvidia | kimmern
[10:10] <ubotu> kimmern: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:10] <adaptr> blade: what do you mean ?
[10:10] <johns^> tyler_: are you installing from an nfs filesystem or something?
[10:10] <goodgerster> zoidberg: where it says "defaults", add ",user"
[10:10] <tyler_> nope
[10:10] <adaptr> blade: does your system support booting from an USB stick ?
[10:10] <tyler_> new install, just downloaded the vmware binary
[10:10] <jrib> PwndMopar: sure
[10:11] <thisissean> adaptr: what is "the alternative install CD" ?
[10:11] <goodgerster> then save and restart... I am not responsible for you borking your system at this point
[10:11] <johns^> tyler_: how are you installing. with sudo?
[10:11] <adaptr> !alternative
[10:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about alternative - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:11] <tyler_> am following hte guide on http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=183209
[10:11] <adaptr> sjeez
[10:11] <tyler_> yes, with sudo
[10:11] <blade> adaptr I don't know, I'm sorry, I'm seriously new to this.. I'm just trying to figure out a way to boot Ubuntu and install it to my HD..
[10:11] <max_> hi, before i start digging the net for my problem: is it possible in GnomeBaker to burn additional files to already existing DVD-RW??
[10:11] <adaptr> !alternate
[10:11] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[10:11] <tyler_> it makes it though all the questions, then pauses and gives me that error
[10:11] <goodgerster> thisissean: the alternative CD has a text-only installer which is not as patronising as the licecd
[10:11] <johns^> tyler_: try chomd -R root:root vmware-vix
[10:11] <johns^> tyler_: sorry chown
[10:11] <adaptr> blade: well.. there are floppy ways
[10:11] <kitche> max_: if it's multisession yes if the dvd is already closed then no
[10:11] <zoidberg> goodgerster: so there are two places it says default, instead of default i should put there "user" or "zoidberg" (my username)
[10:11] <adaptr> !floppy | blade
[10:11] <ubotu> blade: To mount floppy disks, see here : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MakeFloppyDriveAvailableToEveryone
[10:11] <shinobi2> bruenig: i installed it, still can't play applet
[10:11] <tyler_> okay, mind explaining what that does?
[10:12] <blade> adaptr I don't have a floppy drive in my laptop, though..
[10:12] <tyler_> or how you knew to try that
[10:12] <adaptr> NOOO ! it's all going wrong now
[10:12] <jrib> PwndMopar: depends on what they are and how you want to set them up.  You can use ~/.bashrc, or something like ~/.xprofile depending on what they are
 ok so i installed ubuntu and it worked fine but no i turned my computer off and tried to start it up at a different (about a week later) time and it stops on both recovery mode and regular boot mode
[10:12] <goodgerster> zoidberg: no, find the ipod line
[10:12] <adaptr> blade: but it does boot from USB ?
[10:12] <PwndMopar> Hmm,
[10:12] <goodgerster> it will mention /media/ipod or something similar
[10:12] <adaptr> blade:  does the laptop have a CD drive ?
[10:12] <blade> adaptr I'd assume so, I don't know how to find out for sure
[10:12] <kimmern> jrib didnt work
[10:12] <johns^> tyler_: you need root privs to install. so chown makes root the owner of the whole tree vmware-vix
[10:12] <goodgerster> then where on that line it says "defaults" add ",users"
[10:12] <bruenig> shinobi2, in firefox enter about:plugins in the address bar, see what it says about java
[10:12] <jrib> kimmern: did it stop successfully?
[10:12] <blade> adaptr Yup, I've got a CD drive. The problem is, I don't have any blank CD's that I can find...
[10:12] <adaptr> well, you look at the laptop, and see if it has a CD tray....
[10:12] <max_> should be multisession .. I did not tell it to close the first time i burned
[10:13] <kimmern> invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/gdm not found.
[10:13] <zoidberg> goodgerster: what is the ipod line?
[10:13] <kimmern> jrib
[10:13] <tyler_> oh so maybe i didnt have permission of something in that directory
[10:13] <PwndMopar> Oh man, this looks ocnfusing :P
[10:13] <bjames> adaptr: just out of interest, do you mind if I ask what your profession is?
[10:13] <goodgerster> zoidberg: the line that references the ipod
[10:13] <jrib> kimmern: ok, kdm or xdm, whatever you use
[10:13] <adaptr> blade: hmmm.. that is a tricky one.. do you have RW cd's that you can afford to erase >?
[10:13] <Caleb> how can i open KMix??
 ok so i installed ubuntu and it worked fine but no i turned my computer off and tried to start it up at a different (about a week later) time and it stops on both recovery mode and regular boot mode

[10:13] <bjames> adaptr: just wondering
[10:13] <ashika> after installing it
[10:13] <jrib> ashika: type 'vim'
[10:13] <ashika> I did
[10:13] <blade> adaptr I've got RW's, yeah, but they're only 650MB for some odd reason... the ISO file I've got is 698MB
[10:13] <tyler_> johns^: still gave me the same error
[10:13] <jrib> ashika: and?
[10:14] <jrib> ashika: you mean, "how do you use vim?"
[10:14] <ashika> it comes with a screen I cant type in
