[06:38] <chris2077> bruenig, there is a system monitor in admin tools, but it doesnt display mhz
[06:38] <IndyGunFreak> cc77: ok, then be sudo, but it shouldn't be necessary
[06:38] <PriceChild> devilsreject, recordmydesktop, istanbul, xvidcap ?
[06:38] <chris2077> only cpu usage
[06:38] <bruenig> chris2077, ok, as I said
[06:38] <nkayhan> I can't find the config file, and even if I did, I would have anything to paste into it
[06:38] <jeanre> hmmm
[06:38] <bruenig> no more gnome for me
[06:38] <finsta> PriceChild, any recommended recovery CDs to use?
[06:38] <jeanre> how can I see if Xorg is using 3d rendering
[06:39] <PriceChild> finsta, I don't know what the problem is so can't say sorry
[06:39] <bruenig> youser, I am sure it is just as customizable
[06:39] <devilsreject> PriceChild == where do i get any of those ill check synaptic
[06:39] <raven3x7> youser, i think the driver had not been commited to the mainline kernel when ubuntu was released.  take a look at this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=233540
[06:39] <billy> Is there an AcidPro-like program for Ubuntu?
[06:39] <PriceChild> jeanre, glxinfo | grep direct
[06:39] <jrib> billy: what does it do?
[06:39] <finsta> I think the FS is purely corrupted
[06:39] <youser> whats the newest ubuntu release? stable or unstable
[06:39] <jeanre> hmmm
[06:40] <raven3x7> billy AcidPro itsa a synth right?
[06:40] <jeanre> PriceChild: beryl feels slow
[06:40] <youser> i heard there may now be support for the 965 set
[06:40] <bruenig> youser, edgy eft is the last stable release, feisty is in alpha
[06:40] <PriceChild> youser, Dapper is "LongTermSupport", Edgy is latest
[06:40] <Demeskus> Weird..
[06:40] <billy> jrib : acid pro is an audio multitracker.
[06:40] <cc77> IndyGunFreak, googles anwsered me, its ./azureus to start azureus
[06:40] <bruenig> !info audacity
[06:40] <ubotu> audacity: A fast, cross-platform audio editor. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.4b-2.1ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 1850 kB, installed size 5444 kB
[06:40] <PriceChild> youser, Breezy is also still supported
[06:40] <Demeskus> Whenever I try to do something in Terminal I get "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem."
[06:40] <youser> yeah but my computer will not boot those versions
[06:40] <PriceChild> jeanre, #ubuntu-effects please
[06:40] <youser> what about herd?
[06:40] <jrib> billy: jokosher, audacity maybe
[06:40] <PriceChild> youser, herd's are alphas of feisty
[06:40] <mitsuhiko> apparently not :D
[06:40] <bruenig> youser, herd is the name of the feisty alpha, it is not stable
[06:40] <youser> i see
[06:40] <StoneNote> Demeskus, then you might want to run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[06:40] <nkayhan> Please, a little help with keyboard shortcuts?
[06:40] <Demeskus> And whenever I do that, it says I can't do that as I'm not an administrator :\
[06:40] <mitsuhiko> well if, i someone want to help out on a textmate port? :D
[06:41] <StoneNote> Demeskus, try  'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[06:41] <bruenig> nkayhan, gnome's keyboard shortcut scheme makes me vomit
[06:41] <Demeskus> I did.
[06:41] <StoneNote> and?
[06:41] <raven3x7> youser did you look at the link? well there is, but the kernel in the installation cd doesnt have the driver. so you either wait for feiisty or try to find a workaround.
[06:41] <PriceChild> Demeskus, prefix it wish "sudo"
[06:41] <Demeskus> Ah. That was it :D
[06:41] <PriceChild> Demeskus, sudo dpkg --configure -a
[06:41] <c0nka> wat is wine
[06:41] <bruenig> nkayhan, just go into the graphical keyboard thing and do whatever you want to do
[06:41] <bruenig> !wine
[06:41] <Demeskus> Foolish of me.
[06:41] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[06:41] <PriceChild> c0nka, I have answered you before.
[06:42] <c0nka> i no sorry but i had to restart the system sorry
[06:42] <billy> jrib: I don't think you can multitrack with audacity.  Audacity is a good wave editor, but I need something where I can mix tracks.
[06:42] <youser> so does anyone know if its the chipset causing the no boot or the sata hard drive?
[06:42] <nkayhan> bruenig: yea, but can I revert back to defaults, as I was trying to scroll through them, I made every thing down arrow
[06:42] <arooni> so do i have to run sudo apt-get update every so often?  or is that automatic
[06:42] <jrib> billy: jokosher then
[06:42] <jrib> !info jokosher | billy
[06:42] <ubotu> billy: jokosher: simple and easy to use audio multi-tracker. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.1-0ubuntu5 (edgy), package size 605 kB, installed size 1676 kB
[06:42] <bruenig> nkayhan, just change them to what you want, if you want to remove the shortcut completely I believe you can click on it and then hit backspace
[06:43] <nkayhan> bruenig: Ok, sure
[06:43] <bruenig> or delete or something like that
[06:43] <billy> jrib : thanks.  I'll check it.  1.6 MEGS !!!  Wow.  We'll see.
[06:43] <devilsreject> PriceChild -- i dl recordmydesktop from the website
[06:43] <nkayhan> bruenig: thanks
[06:43] <devilsreject> how do i install somethin
[06:43] <devilsreject> im used to usin the command prompt
[06:43] <jeanre> PriceChild: I am there
[06:43] <TheGateKeeper> vorbote: I created a file called /etc/apt/preferences with this in it http://pastebin.ca/389331, & the problem seems to have gone away thanx :-)
[06:43] <PriceChild> devilsreject, "sudo apt-get install packagename" or "sudo dpkg -i /path/to/package.deb"
[06:43] <nkayhan> devilsreject:apt-get install "program name"
[06:44] <IndyGunFreak> nkayhan: he'll need sudo more often than not.
[06:44] <bruenig> devilsreject, or is it source...
[06:44] <raven3x7> youser i dont think the chipset is supported. unless they backported the code into 2.6.17
[06:44] <arooni> anyone know how to install asterik for ubuntu?  i'm having *loads* of trouble (already googled it)
[06:44] <Demeskus> Hmm.. Is there a way to check if I'm the administrator? :S
[06:44] <bruenig> !rootsudo | Demeskus
[06:44] <ubotu> Demeskus: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[06:44] <youser> i heard that the 2.6.18 kernel may have support
[06:44] <Demeskus> Ah
[06:44] <MrFlibble_> I have an X config prob.  I can't get Ubuntu to create a working xorg.conf.  Debian Testing is able to do it (and produces 800x600@61Hz), but the same xorg.conf copied to Ubuntu 6.10 generates 800x600@81Hz, which the monitor can't display.  Any ideas where to start looking?
[06:44] <chris2077> IndyGunFreak, which installs do not require sudo?
[06:44] <nkayhan> devilsreject: or open synaptic under system, administration, synaptic
[06:44] <youser> what would i need to get that feisty?
[06:44] <surface> Demeskus, whoami
[06:44] <devilsreject> see its on my desktop in folder recordmydesktop-<IP_ADDRESS>
[06:44] <raven3x7> youser, you need a distro with a more recent kernel. 2.6.19 at least would be my guess
[06:44] <IndyGunFreak> chris2077: that was my point, most of them require sudo.
[06:45] <devilsreject> alright
[06:45] <bruenig> devilsreject, link me to the package
[06:45] <PriceChild> youser, feisty is not erleased and unstable. It is not for beginners #ubuntu+1 for support
[06:45] <Hoffmann> Anybody any idea how I should handle that: http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/8210/ ?
[06:45] <fatyoga> anyone could recommena a good book to learn c++?
[06:45] <devilsreject> got synaptic open
[06:45] <c0nka> how do i use ubuntu
[06:45] <bruenig> devilsreject, synaptic won't work if it is source which it sounds like it is
[06:45] <raven3x7> youser, yeah but ubuntu edgy 6.10 uses 2.6.17
[06:45] <Hoffmann> c0nka: More details please
[06:45] <surface> fatyoga, thinking in c++
[06:45] <PriceChild> devilsreject, read the readme inside the package... that will tell you how to install
[06:45] <c0nka> becouse i am new to linux
[06:46] <devilsreject> /home/devilsreject/Desktop/recordmydesktop-<IP_ADDRESS>
[06:46] <chris2077> c0nka, the live cd will teach you
[06:46] <orgy`> ive got a list of package i have to install, but i dont want to type them all behind a "apt-get install" command, how can i automate that process (i thought of pasting them into a text file one package each line and then some program can read it)
[06:46] <nkayhan> c0nka: f1
[06:46] <IndyGunFreak> c0nka: well what do you want to know how to do?
[06:46] <seppan> does anyone know how i join a channel containing the "" letter? when i try to join #frgesport get a reply in the status window saying "#frgesport :No such channel" xchat doesn't seem to accept ? in commands?
[06:46] <PriceChild> devilsreject, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=294605
[06:46] <c0nka> how to use it
[06:46] <PriceChild> seppan, That's not a valid character for a channel name
[06:46] <bruenig> devilsreject, you can use the debian sarge package if you want by doing this: wget http://apt.linex.org/linex2006/dists/cl/gnulinex/binary-i386/recordmydesktop_0.3.3-1~sarge1_i386.deb && sudo dpkg -i recordmydesktop_0.3.3-1~sarge1_i386.deb
[06:46] <IndyGunFreak> c0nka: how to use what?
[06:46] <nkayhan> c0nka: f1 will guide you through a lot
[06:46] <Hoffmann> Anybody any idea how I should handle that: http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/8210/ ?
[06:46] <devilsreject> readme said nothin about installin it
[06:47] <MrFlibble_> c0nka: play with it. Experiment. Learn.
[06:47] <seppan> PriceChild, it works in mIRC can i get a serverlist to browse in?
[06:47] <bruenig> devilsreject, yeah follow PriceChild's link
[06:47] <c0nka> indygunfreak ubuntu
[06:47] <IndyGunFreak> c0nka: you should chnage your name to "earsbroken"
[06:47] <bullgard1> Hoffmann: Na steht doch da: "To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line."
[06:47] <c0nka> why
[06:48] <nkayhan> c0nka: Are you new to computers?
[06:48] <IndyGunFreak> because you can't listen
[06:48] <devilsreject> i did that bruenig
[06:48] <c0nka> no to linux
[06:48] <Maul555> jeanre - use some of the more intensive screensavers, or games...
[06:48] <raven3x7> youser, you could try feisty but keep in mind it is not stale and updates are liokely to break things
[06:48] <devilsreject> that added my repository right it should be in synaptic now right
[06:48] <chris2077> c0nka, ubuntu is pretty much common sense for the basic stuff
[06:48] <fatyoga> surface: Thank you.
[06:48] <Maul555> whoops, just realized i was responding to a 5 minute old comment
[06:48] <youser> if i dual boot it wouldnt wreck my windows would it?
[06:48] <c0nka> well ive never used linux
[06:48] <surface> fatyoga, welcome
[06:48] <bruenig> youser, if dual boot recked windows it wouldn't be called dual boot
[06:48] <Maul555> youser:  backup backup backup!!!!
[06:48] <Hoffmann> bullgardl: same error msg
[06:49] <raven3x7> youser thats unlikely
[06:49] <youser> lol ok
[06:49] <bruenig> s/recked/wrecked/
[06:49] <youser> im gonna try feisty i think then
[06:49] <nkayhan> c0nka: Ubuntu's desktop enviroment (Gnome) is a lot like any other graphical enviroment like mac 0sx and windows, you shouldn't have problems opening things from the aplications menu
[06:49] <bruenig> youser, you should use xubuntu feisty, they need testers
[06:49] <IndyGunFreak> youser: always always always backup before messing with a linux install, even if not partitioning
[06:49] <chris2077> c0nka, you will notice a simirality to mac os x, if youve ever used that
[06:49] <billy> orgy`: isn't it just as easy to copypaste into a text file as it is to copypaste into a command line?
[06:49] <youser> xubuntuuuuu
[06:49] <raven3x7> youser, just be carefull with the partitioning. ;) default is to delete the entire drive
[06:49] <youser> lol
[06:49] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: lol
[06:49] <surface> xubuntu is cool
[06:50] <surface> i see it with berly
[06:50] <PriceChild> c0nka, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation
[06:50] <devilsreject> bruenig -- it should be showin up in synaptic package manager now right
[06:50] <Maul555> ok umm...
[06:50] <IndyGunFreak> surface: xubuntu is good, i like it.
[06:50] <IndyGunFreak> using Beryl with it defeats the purpose though
[06:50] <orgy`> billy not if they are formatted in a way that is not accepted by the command line :(
[06:50] <bruenig> devilsreject, I told you to follow PriceChild's link, I don't know about synaptic, I don't use it

[06:53] <Migajoquinhas> hi people
[06:53] <apokryphos> the ubuntu server I'm on seems to save fetchmail'd mail straight into Maildir. I thought fetchmail only supported mbox -- is some kind of conversion going on here?
[06:53] <Huffalump> faceface, when do you see that warning?
[06:53] <IndyGunFreak> chris2077: well, i never played the original..lol, but i like a lot of these goofy linux games
[06:53] <raven3x7> xadloki, well if you are right and it does have bad sectors its usually just a matter of time before it breaks completely
[06:53] <chris2077> IndyGunFreak, yeah, where i found it
[06:53] <Migajoquinhas>  did you ever came to portugal?
[06:54] <IndyGunFreak> chris2077: its installing
[06:54] <nkayhan> C0nka: OK, well, you're on it right now, so you've learned how to install it, now what aspect of ubuntu do you want to know.  What task?
[06:54] <chris2077> IndyGunFreak, nice, and lol yeh, decent games are far and few between
[06:54] <devilsreject> it says that its installed in package manager
[06:54] <devilsreject> whre do i go to use it
[06:54] <StoneNote> c0nka, read everything here http://ubuntuguide.org/ and let me know when you've read it all
[06:54] <IndyGunFreak> nkayhan: just how to use it!.. don't you understand..lol
[06:55] <xadloki> raven3x7: well it's been reporting bad sectors occasionally for about 5 months already and im gonna push it till it get's totally screwed, I have other drives but I prefer to use this one for OS's
[06:55] <posingaspopular> StoneNote: thats a bit of heavy reading...
[06:55] <nkayhan> IndyGunFreak: I wanted to post this on digg, for some laughs so I was adding to the fire
[06:55] <StoneNote> posingaspopular, he said he wanted to know it all :)
[06:55] <posingaspopular> StoneNote: well then, thats different
[06:55] <IndyGunFreak> if he'd give even the vaguest of ideas as to what he wants to learn, for instance, "how to surf the internet", i might entertain him but he's just being a moron i do believe
[06:56] <StoneNote> that is one step on his journey grasshopper :)
[06:56] <Maul555> i have a nvidia driver issue with a FX5200...  opengl screensavers freeze the whole computer after about 30 seconds of working fine...  can anybody point me in the right direction?

[06:56] <posingaspopular> Maul555: reinstall the drivers, and see what happens

[06:57] <DinCahill> Hi. I'm about to install Ubuntu to a machine that already dual boots Windows Vista and XP. XP is installed on hda1 and Vista on hdb1. I assume the vista bootloader is on hda1 as I boot to HDD-0 in my BIOS. When installing Ubuntu, should I tell it to put GRUB on hd0,0? I know how to make GRUB recognize Vista, but am I right in assuming that installing GRUB on hd0,0 will not format it?

[07:02] <VII> oh ok, thanx, I was under the impression that you had to do some special way with beryl
[07:02] <thingy> chris2077, to see the difference between debian and ubuntu...ask that same question on #debian and see for yourself :-)
[07:02] <PriceChild> cypherdelic, remove beryl-plugins-extra

[07:03] <ChrisGo> alst question :) can you install gcc 4.1.1 current then install for example gcc 4.0.x and use something like gcc-config to switch environments?
[07:03] <raven3x7> c0nka, if you check the wiki theres a couple of articles there
[07:03] <aos> who can i instal DGuitar??
[07:03] <aos> *how
[07:04] <c0nka> ok
[07:04] <nkayhan> Me hungry, go eat cheese poofs for breakfast
[07:04] <raven3x7> nnyone/ what filesystem do you mount dvds as?
[07:04] <sebrock> anyone using 3ddesktop here?
[07:04] <Dr_willis> sebrock,  its not worth messing with...
[07:04] <Dr_willis> :)
[07:04] <posingaspopular> sebrock: try #ubuntu-effects
[07:05] <cypherdelic> PriceChild: What about dbus? Do i need to install? I cant!
[07:05] <sebrock> well it works...almost
[07:05] <Dr_willis> !info 3ddesktop
[07:05] <ubotu> 3ddesktop: "Three-dimensional" desktop switcher. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.2.9-5.1ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 74 kB, installed size 448 kB
[07:05] <Dr_willis> depends if he means THAT 3ddesktop or 'A 3d Desktop' :)
[07:05] <PriceChild> cypherdelic, "sudo apt-get remove beryl-dbus" don't need it.. and best to keep this in #ubuntu-effects
[07:05] <ChrisGo> what is the big diff between Ubuntu and Debian where is this going to be better?
[07:05] <cypherdelic> thanks
[07:06] <mando> Hi guys, i tried everything I found on the web, but nothing really helped. How can I make Counter Strike (or steam) run under ubuntu?
[07:06] <PriceChild> ChrisGo, the community makes ubuntu better imo
[07:06] <Dr_willis> ChrisGo,  'polish' and lots of 'twiddling' :)
[07:06] <billy> Maul555: try reading this.  --> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=208152&highlight=nvidia+opengl+freeze
[07:06] <surface> ChirsGo ubuntu is using debian as base
[07:06] <sebrock> Dr_willis, I neab that
[07:06] <pestilence> ChrisGo: debian has a lot slower release cycle
[07:06] <aos> any1 know how can i instal DGuitar?
[07:07] <surface> ubuntu user driven, debian server driven
[07:07] <pestilence> ChrisGo: and a much bigger package set in their main distro
[07:07] <Dr_willis> !find dguitar
[07:07] <ubotu> Package/file dguitar does not exist in edgy
[07:07] <Maul555> billy: oky, i was just getting confused about having multiple driver versions installed anyways...
[07:07] <Dr_willis> aos,  use the source I guess - its not in the repos.
[07:07] <c0nka> how do u no wat versoin of ubuntu you have got
[07:07] <posingaspopular> !version
[07:07] <ubotu> To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[07:07] <Dr_willis> :)
[07:08] <ChrisGo> if i just need a server with basic compilations and a java env do you recommend ubuntu server over debain then?
[07:08] <billy> Maul555: that sounds like it could be a problem.  Don't know much about nvidia, though.  I use an Intel (integrated).
[07:08] <Dr_willis> ChrisGo,  i imagine  either one can do that job.
[07:08] <pestilence> ChrisGo: if you want it to be production quality, go debian
[07:08] <mando> Anyone here that knows how to install CounterStrike?
[07:08] <dynamicdip> ls
[07:08] <pestilence> ChrisGo: debian stable
[07:08] <Dr_willis> ChrisGo,  some would advise using 'bsd' for a server. :)
[07:08] <Dr_willis> heh heh
[07:08] <Seveas> ChrisGo, Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
[07:09] <ChrisGo> i was all about centos since its really redhat but hey are on really old gcc versions
[07:09] <Seveas> only use debian if you want to get the same old things as centos :)
[07:09] <pestilence> ChrisGo: doesn't the latest CentOS have gcc 4.1?
[07:09] <ChrisGo> pestilence not with out exports and tweaking
[07:09] <raven3x7> anyone know what other filetypes dvds use besides iso9660?
[07:09] <mjr> udf
[07:10] <ChrisGo> plus redhat jacks all the lib files
[07:10] <cypherdelic> disconnect
[07:10] <mjr> (plus, of course, anything that you decide to burn on a dvd, but udf is the "canonical" filesystem)
[07:10] <billy> cypherdelic: did you think you were in a terminal?
[07:10] <pestilence> ChrisGo: i don't think that's true
[07:10] <aos> maybe some1 here know how to run ragnarok online server on ubu?
[07:10] <pestilence> http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/centos/4.4/os/i386/CentOS/RPMS/ has 4.1.0
[07:10] <arooni> can someone help me install asterick on edgy?
[07:10] <ChrisGo> i have heard they customize the gcc for redhat
[07:11] <pestilence> ChrisGo: i have gcc4 on my centos machine *dunno*
[07:11] <Maul555> billy:  oooh, this script looks promising, ill report back with what happens..
[07:11] <raven3x7> mjr thanks. that worked! :D so edgy doesnt automount udf. maybe i should file a bugreport if there isnt one already
[07:11] <billy> Maul555: hope it works.  get back to us and let us know.  ubuntuforums.org really is the first place we should be searching for problems.

[07:19] <asaup> we are both in kubuntu
[07:19] <rjg_> Jrib: I want to add apps to lunch, just under the rest, not on the scripts menu.
[07:19] <Seveas> ofn, the dvd has more packages, but they're just as easy to install via the internet
[07:19] <raven3x7> ofn, the dvd includes the alternate install
[07:19] <Demeskus> They drives not listed in the 'Places' menu or anything. I can see them in System -> Device Management though. :\
[07:19] <ofn> okay, thanks Seveas and raven3x7 :)
[07:20] <jrib> rjg_: if you're really interested and can't find an easier way, you could look at the source for nautilus-open-terminal

[07:34] <BigMac> Hey all. I have a dell 1501 with a broadcom chipset in ubuntu edgy eft. I Have ndiswrapper'd the driver, set it up and my wifi light is lit, but I can't find eth 1 under right clicking the networking icon in the task pane.
[07:34] <jrib> Botamis: you should have a "Third-Part" tab
[07:34] <mando> billy: done ;)
[07:34] <jrib> "Third-party" even
[07:35] <NewbieUser00001> ima tryin
[07:35] <Maul555> downloading packages on dialup sucks...
[07:35] <Botamis> jrib: Ok i'm there, I clicked add. Now what?
[07:35] <bluefox83> BigMac, wireless doesn't use eth1 it uses wlan
[07:35] <jrib> Botamis: now continue with the page
[07:35] <Seveas> bluefox83, not all wireless do that
[07:35] <Botamis> jrib: it says to check some boxes, but i don't see the boxes to check
[07:35] <Seveas> my wireless is eth1
[07:35] <mando> billy: is that it ? Is that all ... seems impossible to me :S
[07:35] <billy> mando: exit the text editor. be sure to save it.  then you'll need to restart.  press ctrl+alt+backspace.  log back in.  test it, come back here, and report.
[07:35] <soundray> NewbieUser00001: have you looked at it yet?
[07:35] <jrib> Botamis: join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[07:35] <NewbieUser00001> don't know how
[07:35] <BigMac> bluefox83: I have never seen that as an option
[07:35] <bluefox83> Seveas, oh...
[07:36] <mando> billy great
[07:36] <soundray> NewbieUser00001: it's in /var/lib/dpkg/info/samba.prerm
[07:36] <billy> mando: no prob.
[07:36] <Cyrus25801> is there a tut out there that helps you setup a server: I want to be able to create accounts and limit bandwidth and down and up limit's.Windows PC must be able to connect too.  I have searched the Internet but nothing that is very much detail.
[07:36] <Seveas> bluefox83, and on another machine ath0
[07:36] <NewbieUser00001> attempting "sudo apt-get install -f
[07:36] <bluefox83> i've never heard of wireless using anything but wlan >.>
[07:36] <mando> billy thx for help, be right back ;)
[07:36] <Seveas> and on the third it's wifi0
[07:36] <NewbieUser00001> same output
[07:36] <NewbieUser00001> will look at the file
[07:36] <billy> mando: right on.
[07:37] <_F00BaR> hey
[07:37] <lauchazombie> hi , does someboy have been able to use siefs ?
[07:37] <_F00BaR> can i have some help please
[07:37] <_F00BaR> i just installed ubunttu
[07:37] <soundray> !ask | _F00BaR
[07:37] <ubotu> _F00BaR: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:37] <soundray> !enter | _F00BaR
[07:37] <ubotu> _F00BaR: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[07:38] <BigMac> bluefox83: my light is on but lo, eth 0 , eth1 and sit0 all return nothing when I "iwlist scanning"
[07:38] <_F00BaR> when i try to compile something i get this error: configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[07:38] <Seveas> !compilw _foo
[07:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about compilw _foo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:38] <thcmonkey> can uncommenting also mean to remove ; not just #?
[07:38] <soundray> _F00BaR: install build-essential and read the pm from ubotu
[07:38] <Seveas> !compile | _F00BaR
[07:38] <ubotu> _F00BaR: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[07:38] <lauchazombie> instal bult essential
[07:38] <lauchazombie> in synaptic
[07:39] <Seveas> BigMac, is it a broadcom chip?
[07:39] <BigMac> Seveas: yes
[07:39] <lauchazombie> you have to enable multiverse and staff
[07:39] <Seveas> BigMac, did you install the firmware?
[07:39] <NewbieUser00001> soundray: ok i'm in it... but I don't know what I'm looking for
[07:39] <Seveas> broadcom wifi does not work out-of-the-box
[07:39] <cyris> Is it mee or is the number 1 wireless problem i see in this channel always to do with broadcom cards :S man broadcom sucks
[07:39] <Seveas> cyris, indeed
[07:39] <soundray> NewbieUser00001: something that looks like you might have force-removed it although samba depended on it.
[07:39] <BigMac> Seveas: Not unless it was covered in this guide http://ubuntu1501.blogspot.com/2007/01/fixing-wifi-on-dell-1501.html
[07:40] <mando> billy: It does work, but ... :S the mouse has lots of buttons. And the buttons, that did this job on windows don't do anything, but the buttons that didn't do anything on windows function now as back and forward
[07:40] <Seveas> BigMac, try this: dmesg | grep bcm43xx
[07:40] <Seveas> and pastebin the output
[07:40] <rjg_> HEy guys, I've successfullly install nautilius actions...
[07:40] <Seveas> BigMac, btw: that guide SUCKS
[07:41] <NewbieUser00001> it is rather short, and doesn't seem to have much going on in there
[07:41] <billy> mando: I see.  Did the "ZAxisMapping" read "4 5" before?  What did they read, if not?
[07:41] <BigMac> Seveas: Sorry, I just used it because it was expressly written for my computer
[07:41] <Seveas> BigMac, that guide may very well have broken your system completely
[07:41] <soundray> NewbieUser00001: have you opened it with sudo?
[07:41] <Seveas> BigMac, do you mind if I pm you?
[07:41] <BigMac> no
[07:42] <NewbieUser00001> nautilus in root mode... its open in gedit
[07:42] <rjg_> now, I'd like to be able to rgiht click a blank section of my desktop and in the dropdown, see entries like "Firefox" that when clicked on run firefox, etc..... Now, nautilius actions curently does this for me, but only when I right click, say, a shortcut...How can I fix this>
[07:42] <thcmonkey> can uncommenting also mean to remove ; not just #?
[07:42] <soundray> NewbieUser00001: okay. Insert 'exit 0' as the second line and save. That will force a success on 'apt-get -f install'
[07:42] <mando> billy don't really know what you are asking for :S the option said 4 5  before and then i changed it to 6 7 - i know I'm not a really big help ... sorry
[07:43] <tonyb2006> i forgot the root pw for this ubuntu box and now it says the hdd failed fsck and wants to go into maitence mode
[07:43] <NewbieUser00001> ok.
[07:43] <soundray> NewbieUser00001: fairly unclean, but when you install it again (from the repositories please), it should be all right.
[07:43] <headphase> hello
[07:43] <adminx> anyone with success using sd carders on laptops in ubuntu
[07:43] <adminx> I have a toshiba laptop with builtin carder, I would like for it to auto mount
[07:43] <headphase> I can't get my external hd to work
[07:44] <Cyrus25801> is there a tut out there that helps you setup a server: I want to be able to create accounts and limit bandwidth and down and up limit's.Windows PC must be able to connect too.  I have searched the Internet but nothing that is very much detail.
[07:44] <tonyb2006> score, usb flash drive
[07:44] <soundray> tonyb2006: you have to chroot into it from a live CD or so and reset the password. Please leave the root account locked next time -- saves you pain and is more secure.
[07:44] <NewbieUser00001> nice trick... but now its giving post-installation script returned error exit status 102 samba
[07:45] <billy> mando: `sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf`.  change "6 7" to "8 9".  remember to save the file, log out (ctrl+alt+backspace), come back and let me know.
[07:45] <tonyb2006> it might be locked
[07:45] <soundray> NewbieUser00001: you may have to do the same trick on /var/lib/dpkg/info/samba.postinst then.
[07:45] <NewbieUser00001> ok
[07:45] <NewbieUser00001> will do
[07:45] <mando> billy: what does 6 and 7 stand for? cant i just change it to more - considering that it stands for the amount of buttons
[07:45] <mando> billy: ok ... thx
[07:46] <mando> billy be right back
[07:46] <soundray> NewbieUser00001: but please get used to the thought that the system will need a reinstall to fix it long-term.
[07:46] <adminx> anyone with success using sd carders on laptops in ubuntu
[07:46] <tonyb2006> meh im not at my house (where various livecds are scattered everywhere) so I cant find one
[07:46] <bdina> i need help getting intel ht working -- can anyone here help me with that?
[07:46] <knoppix> bjc
[07:47] <nekr0z> Hello all! Have problem with a camera, it used to connect to my laptop OK, but after some update F-Spot says I'm not allowed to access USB device or something like this. I have found in forums, that camera should be in /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libgphoto2.rules to work good, but mine IS ALREADY there, so I seem to be stuck. Any ideas?
[07:47] <lauchazombie> i need help browsing the files in my phone is a siemens m65
[07:47] <soundray> adminx: the word is card reader. Most SD card readers work with kernel 2.6.17 -- so if you're not on edgy yet, an upgrade might fix it.
[07:47] <NewbieUser00001> soundray: it finished successfully
[07:48] <NewbieUser00001> what next?
[07:48] <xamox> anyone have a good performance tweaking guide for edgy?
[07:48] <mando> billy: Now none of the extra buttons work
[07:48] <bdina> Is anyone running edgy with HyperThreading???
[07:48] <soundray> NewbieUser00001: read the help:
[07:48] <soundray> !samba > NewbieUser00001
[07:48] <NewbieUser00001> okiedokie
[07:48] <billy> mando: relax.  fixing it is as simple as going back and changing xorg.conf.
[07:48] <adminx> soundray i'm on 7.04
[07:48] <billy> mando: remember how to do that?
[07:49] <mando> billy: do you have any other suggestions? if not, i ll just stick to the option before :D
[07:49] <billy> mando: yes.   i have other suggestions. :)
[07:49] <nblracer> i dont recalling seeing a patch, but was there an update for the timezone/daylight savingtimes chnage for the US
[07:49] <mando> yeah, linux doesnt seem all that complicated - dont know what all the people are talking about
[07:50] <soundray> NewbieUser00001: also, check out the sections on " How to mount/unmount network folders..." in http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy
[07:50] <mando> billy: oh you do ... Well then, whats the next idea :P
[07:50] <billy> mando: me neither.  it has a slight learning curve, but ... hey ... with all this help.
[07:50] <soundray> NewbieUser00001: it's an unofficial guide, but this section is quite useful
[07:50] <soundray> adminx: in that case, ask in #ubuntu+1 please
[07:51] <mando> billy: Thats the main reason i changed ... Ubuntu has even its philosophy !!
[07:51] <soundray> nblracer: there is. Install tzdata
[07:51] <mando> billy: so what was the other suggestion you had ?
[07:51] <mando> billy:  hahaha
[07:51] <billy> mando: `sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf`.  change the "ZAxisMapping" back to "4 5".  Let me know when you do that? (remember, it takes me a second to type.)
[07:51] <soundray> nblracer: and check whether the DST dates are correct with "zdump -v /etc/localtime | grep 2007"
[07:52] <nekr0z> mando: Hey, I used to think that way too, but now I just connect a device that worked 2 weeks ago, and it doesn't, and no one seems to have the clue... So I'm not so sure now :(
[07:52] <MTec007> hello, is there a way to install without loading X?
[07:52] <soundray> nekr0z: I've missed your problem description so far
[07:52] <mando> billy: changed back to 4 5
[07:52] <nekr0z> soundray: Have problem with a camera, it used to connect to my laptop OK, but after some update F-Spot says I'm not allowed to access USB device or something like this. I have found in forums, that camera should be in /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libgphoto2.rules to work good, but mine IS ALREADY there, so I seem to be stuck. Any ideas?
[07:53] <soundray> MTec007: yes, choose a server install
[07:53] <whieimhere> Is there an easy way to divide a 1.1 gig movie file into two smaller movie files to be burned to CD
[07:53] <Gena-Trius> Hi!
[07:53] <MTec007> i cant load the live cd, i need to not load X at all'
[07:53] <nblracer> soundray im little new, how do i go about installing that
[07:53] <Gena-Trius> Does anyone have this card? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsBuffalo
[07:53] <flake> can I make my own gnome session without overwriting the default one?
[07:53] <nekr0z> soundray: Maybe it was too long for the channel... Are there limits here?
[07:53] <billy> mando: now add this line below the "ZAxisMapping" line.  `Option    "ButtonMapping"    "1 2 3 6 7".  Save.  Log out.  Test it and report back.
[07:54] <flake> i want to use a desklet taskbar and get rid of the top applications menu, but be able to go back if I mess something up
[07:54] <soundray> nekr0z: are you a member of group plugdev? If not, run 'sudo adduser $(whoami) plugdev'
[07:54] <kubie> hi there
[07:54] <kubie> I got the ubuntu cd
[07:54] <Gena-Trius> It's coming with my new laptop, and I need to make sure that what is says in the Comments section is ALL I'll need to do.
[07:54] <billy> mando: don't put the ` character into your xorg.conf text file though.  8\
[07:54] <kubie> but I cant choose LVM when it asks me to format the disk
[07:54] <kubie> has anybody got an idea what I supposed to do?
[07:54] <mando> nekrOz: I know what you are talking about. For example my printer won't work under linux :( Which is pretty stupid, cause i need to switch to win just to print a document ... same with my microphone
[07:54] <nekr0z> soundray: I'll do, but just for convenience: how do I see if I am already?
[07:54] <soundray> nblracer: just open a terminal and run "zdump -v /etc/localtime | grep 2007"
[07:54] <mando> billy i see
[07:55] <Gena-Trius> Hello?
[07:55] <AlexC_> hi,
[07:55] <soundray> nekr0z: enter just 'groups' and see if plugdev is listed
[07:55] <billy> Gena-Trius: what's up?
[07:55] <thcmonkey> is there a way of sending a network message from an ubuntu machine to an xp machine? - obviously when on the same network
[07:55] <MTec007> soundray: i cant load the live cd, i need to not load X at all, is that possible?
[07:55] <kubie> thcmonkey: netsend
[07:55] <nekr0z> soundray: It is.
[07:55] <kubie> eeer
[07:55] <kubie> thcmonkey: smbmessage
[07:55] <kubie> or something like that
[07:55] <soundray> MTec007: yes, you will need the alternate CD. See ubotu's pm
[07:55] <soundray> !alternate > MTec007
[07:55] <Gena-Trius> This card ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsBuffalo ) is coming with my new laptop, which I mean to install ubuntu on. Is that, in the Comments box, ALL I'll need to do?
[07:55] <thcmonkey> kubie: awesome, cheers dude
[07:56] <VII> Ive downloaded a tar.gz-file containing icons, how do I use them?
[07:56] <kubie> thcmonkey:  but yeah, there a util in the samba package
[07:56] <mando> billy: do i need to put option in the first row ?
[07:56] <PriceChild> VII, extract to ~/.icons
[07:56] <kubie> why did they make the installer so retard?! :/
[07:56] <AlexC_> VII: drag n drop them into the the theme editor window thingy, System->Prefs->Theme
[07:56] <VII> hm
[07:56] <flake> can I copy my current gnome session and edit that so if I mess anything up I can go back to my default gnome session?
[07:56] <billy> mando: yeah.  do your best to line up all those words with the words above them.  For instance, the "Option" should line up with the other "Options".
[07:56] <kubie> is there an alternate cd for herd? does anybody know?
[07:57] <thcmonkey> kubie: know how i access it from a terminal?
[07:57] <mando> billy cool
[07:57] <AlexC_> kubie: #ubuntu+1
[07:57] <feta> on xubuntu, festival complains when trying to play 'Hello': '/bin/sh: /usr/bin/esd: not found #<Utterance 0xb71ada18>'. why is that and how to fix?
[07:57] <billy> mando:  I don't think that's very important to get the entire line perfect.
[07:57] <soundray> nekr0z: are you plugging the camera while you're already logged in?
[07:57] <nekr0z> flake: You definitely can, but I'm afraid I don't know how. Hang on a second, I'll try to figure it out.
[07:57] <billy> mando: you did put that new line *below* the "ZAxisMapping" line, right?
[07:57] <flake> ok
[07:58] <nekr0z> soundray: Sure.
[07:58] <mando> billy: dont wanna be a dush ... just dont wanna make a mistake ... yes i put it there
[07:58] <cpsalvestrini> Hi all
[07:58] <AlexC_> Hi

[07:58] <cpsalvestrini> I'm having some trouble with gnome keyring manager
[07:59] <soundray> nekr0z: I've no idea at the moment, but check every hour or so if someone has logged on who can help... sometimes it takes some patience.
[07:59] <mando> billy:  do you want me to put an 8 after the seven ?
[07:59] <danny31> Hi all
[07:59] <AlexC_> Hi
[07:59] <NewbieUser00001> soundray: I know how to use it, I just didn't know what was wrong with i
[07:59] <NewbieUser00001> it
[07:59] <billy> Mando: we'll try that *after* we try this.
[07:59] <NewbieUser00001> thanks for the help... i appreciate it
[07:59] <danny31> how can i open dicom files?
[07:59] <cpsalvestrini> Specifically, the keyring manager does not store my passwords
[07:59] <mando> billy: kk
[07:59] <bariel> hello, what should i do if i get this error: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_CONFIG_HEADERS
[07:59] <soundray> NewbieUser00001: you're welcome. Come back and help others when you're through the initial newbie stage ;)
[07:59] <grandi> is there channel for more general chat?
[07:59] <AlexC_> #ubuntu-offtopic grandi

[08:01] <mjg> Can anyone help with installation of  wireless nic (D-LINK DWL-G510) on Ubuntu Edgy?
[08:01] <soundray> nekr0z: I'm not sure. I'd do a 'ls /dev >/tmp/devlist1', then plug the camera and do 'ls /dev/ >/tmp/devlist2 ; diff /tmp/devlist1 /tmp/devlist2'
[08:01] <NewbieUser00001> soundray: I do try... i'm in here often under the name CyberCod... this is just a desktop I set up to sell... i made a shortcut to irssi that was pre-configured to come in here with this name
[08:01] <bariel> Ng, i have another information, i got If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.. how can i use it?

[08:02] <soundray> NewbieUser00001: good, I'll know who you are ;)
[08:02] <cpsalvestrini> arooni use sudo -i
[08:02] <billy> arooni: there is no root for Ubuntu.
[08:02] <Gena-Trius> Can anyone help me?
[08:02] <nblracer> soundray thanks it all looks good
[08:02] <mjg> cps: Documentation says it should work with ath_pci module and madwifi
[08:02] <AlexC_> not if you don't ask a question, Gena-Trius
[08:02] <bradford> Any help here??
[08:02] <Gena-Trius> I have, twice.
[08:02] <AlexC_> !ask | bradford
[08:02] <ubotu> bradford: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:02] <Gena-Trius> This card ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsBuffalo ) is coming with my new laptop, which I mean to install ubuntu on. Is that, in the Comments box, ALL I'll need to do?
[08:02] <nblracer> soundray Is there a way i can turn auto updates on too
[08:03] <bradford> ok my question is Tried to run software update and got error E could not lock var/cache/apt/archives/lock open (11 resouce temporarily unabalible) E: unable to lock the download directory.
[08:03] <mando> billy so much about the complicity of linux systems ... it all works great now PLUS even the buttons, that didn't work on win work now ... besides one button, which i dont even know what its supposed to be for
[08:03] <cpsalvestrini> ok mjg. it might be a firmware / chipset driver if you can't get your card to work.
[08:03] <mando> billy GLAD :D
[08:03] <MTec007> where can i get the "Alternate CD"?
[08:03] <Ng> bariel: it's more likely you need to run ./autogen.sh or install a newer automake, but it's hard to say
[08:03] <cpsalvestrini> that's why i suggested ndiswrapper and windows drivers
[08:03] <AlexC_> bradford: do you have synaptic or apt-get running ?
[08:03] <Ng> MTec007: should be in the same place as the desktop one
[08:03] <nekr0z> soundray: I'll give it a try.
[08:03] <mando> billy thx man, you've been a great help ! ;)
[08:03] <MTec007> i dont it
[08:03] <MTec007> see it*
[08:04] <bradford> AlexC I'm not sure what you mean.
[08:04] <AlexC_> bradford: is Synaptic open?
[08:04] <billy> mando: please go to ubuntuforums.org and post a thread.
[08:04] <Gena-Trius> Also, the person selling the laptop said it was WLI-CB-G54m but the card listed here has an L at the end of it's name. Might this be bad?
[08:04] <mjg> cps: Not sure what you mean by that. I have 2 ubuntu computers, one runs, the other does not... makes no sense to me...
[08:04] <AlexC_> Gena-Trius: probably. Try it when it arrives,
[08:04] <Comrade-Sergei> by default where does ubuntu put the executuble for its programs?
[08:04] <Gena-Trius> The thing is, if anything goes wrong, I don't get to keep the laptop.
[08:04] <ChrisGo> ok jsut installed the server cd 6.10 and it never asked me for root password what is the default so i can change it?
[08:04] <billy> mando: I'm really glad to help.
[08:04] <AlexC_> Comrade-Sergei: depends, usually though it's /usr/bin
[08:04] <Comrade-Sergei> ty
[08:04] <Gena-Trius> I can't have any probablies...
[08:04] <bradford> AlexC not sure.  How do I know
[08:04] <flake>  /usr/bin i think
[08:05] <flake> you can do a whereis
[08:05] <mando> billy, i will ... i just hope my english is good enough for that :S...
[08:05] <AlexC_> bradford: look in the window list thing and the bottom?
[08:05] <billy> mando: you're english is great.
[08:05] <mando> billy: ;)
[08:05] <ramza3> how do I change the "Text Editor" from gedit to something else
[08:05] <Gena-Trius> I'll ask on the forums.
[08:05] <cpsalvestrini> jmg: cards by a same manufacturer might use different chips in later revisions of the card... that's what i meant by that.
[08:05] <flake> whereis konqueror
[08:05] <mando> billy: Ashame :S
[08:05] <AlexC_> it's over here
[08:05] <bradford> Software update is open.
[08:05] <mando> billy: hahaha
[08:05] <ChrisGo> when you install the server cd it doesnt propt you for root password how do you su or sudo if you dont know the password?
[08:05] <CheshireViking> is there a good, working speech recognition system for Ubuntu/Linux, I'm just downloading Sphinx from the repo's, just wondering if this is the only one and whether it can integrate with other apps like openoffice etc
[08:05] <dimeotane> when I delete a file nautilus/desktop freezes for a couple seconds... anyone have this problem or have suggestions?
[08:06] <cpsalvestrini> bradford: close software update if you want to run apt-get manually
[08:06] <Comrade-Sergei> AlexC_ do you  have bittorrent, thats the one im looking for
[08:06] <ChrisGo> is there a default password?
[08:06] <nekr0z> flake: The default session is in /usr/share/gnome/default.session and I believe that you can locate the file where your current session is saved (try "gnome-session-save" and see what files appear in your home directory) at that moment. You can remove them later or replace with the default one.
[08:06] <mjg> cps: Thanks for the info... I've given up on trying to fix this. I'll use ndiswrappers for now... The card worked fine in Dapper, broke in edgy...
[08:06] <ChrisGo> about 10 seconds and im never looking back this is bad
[08:06] <AlexC_> Comrade-Sergei: just download a .torrent file and double click it
[08:06] <bradford> I am just trying to run software update.
[08:06] <cpsalvestrini> yw mjg:)
[08:07] <bradford> So how do I get software update to run?
[08:08] <cpsalvestrini> i have an issue with gnome keyring manager: it won't save my passphrases. no matter what i do, it won't save passphrases. i've even manually deleted my keyrings (and by doing that i think i fubared it) but so far no dice.
[08:08] <gnudoc> bradford: do you just want to upgrade your installed software?
[08:08] <bradford> Yes
[08:08] <billy> bradford: system>administration>update manager
[08:08] <caravena> Hello, how to install package dcopprinter in Ubuntu Dapper?
[08:08] <nekr0z> soundray: diff returns empty string. Do you have ANY indea of what the hell is happening?
[08:09] <dumbalien> using scribus in windows; does it work better under linux?
[08:09] <bradford> billy that is what I am doing and get the error.
[08:09] <gnudoc> bradford: several ways. are you comfortable with typing into the terminal?
[08:09] <AlexC_> nekr0z: soundray left,
[08:09] <MTec007> Ng: i wonder if the server install CD will load, while the live cd wount
[08:09] <billy> bradford: what does the error read?
[08:09] <bradford>  E could not lock var/cache/apt/archives/lock open (11 resouce temporarily unabalible) E: unable to lock the download directory.
[08:09] <nekr0z> AlexC_: thanks, I've missed it.
[08:09] <phewl> is it weird that my ubuntu runs worse without xgl?
[08:09] <Ng> MTec007: in what way does the live CD not load?
[08:09] <phewl> like it lags way more
[08:09] <AlexC_> phewl: nope,
[08:09] <Comrade-Sergei> wow bittorrent.com must have taken quite a legal beating since i last saw it. lol
[08:09] <phewl> whys that?
[08:10] <niyanta> Hi, I installed Ubuntu on my compaq presario v3000z. I'm having a problem with wireless. I followed this guide: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Windows_Wireless_Drivers_.28Ndiswrapper.29 and installed my windows broadcom driver. This is the output if ndiswrapper -l: " Installed drivers: bcmwl5 driver installed, hardware present". But when I try to connect using sudo iwconfig eth1 essid "<MyEssId>" key <MyWEPKey>, it's
[08:10] <niyanta>  not working
[08:10] <AlexC_> phewl: xgl/compiz/beryl use the Graphics Card instead of the CPU to do drawing of the desktop,
[08:10] <billy> bradford: open synaptic.
[08:10] <ChrisGo> just installed the server cd and it didnt ask me for root password is there a default so i can change it?
[08:10] <dumbalien> using scribus in windows; does it work better under linux?
[08:10] <inthepit> anyone available to help me with teamspeak
[08:10] <phewl> well cuz i updated and the beryl-core update broke my xgl and im working on downgrading to get it working again
[08:10] <MTec007> its real slow, i shut the pc off after staring at a orange screen with 2 all grey empy toolbars for 20 minutes
[08:10] <AlexC_> phewl: so it actually, kinda, speeds up you're pc - as it's not using the cpu (as much)
[08:10] <mvfeinstein> Hello, I have a pretty new install of ubuntu feisty and it is running kind of slow. Can anyone here point me in the right direction on how to speed it up
[08:10] <PriceChild> !sudo | ChrisGo
[08:10] <ubotu> ChrisGo: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[08:10] <Ng> MTec007: hmm, was the CD drive still making noises?
[08:10] <Ng> ?win 81
[08:10] <PriceChild> ChrisGo, root is disabled by default in ubuntu
[08:10] <Ng> erk
[08:10] <MTec007> yep
[08:10] <AlexC_> mvfeinstein: Feisty is in Heavy development, only use if you know it _will_ break! and for Feisty questions go in #ubuntu+1 please
[08:11] <atomiku> ive just copied a folder to another hard drive how can I checksum thingy the two folders to make sure its copied correctly?
[08:11] <Maul555> whats with all these people running unstable versions all of a sudden and then wondering why they have problems?
[08:11] <mvfeinstein> AlexC_ thanks for the tip
[08:11] <phewl> AlexC_, but with xgl i cant play games like tremulous or it runs but it'll be in a different resolution then my screen and when i join a server its all in a weird language but the main menu is all the same just when i join it looks like its encoded or something
[08:11] <billy> atomiku: is checksum like md5sum?
[08:11] <bradford> where is synaptic?
[08:11] <AlexC_> Maul555: I have _no_ idea. I've seen loads of people running Feisty who are new to Linux then complaining it's not working,
[08:11] <atomiku> yeah
[08:11] <AlexC_> bradford: system->admin->synaptic
[08:11] <Ng> bradford: System->Administration
[08:12] <Nick_oi> hi guys, what does it mean if i get bash: ./jdk-6-linux-i586.bin: Permission denied?
[08:12] <AlexC_> you don't have permission,
[08:12] <inthepit> anyone able to help me with a quick TeamSpeak question
[08:12] <cpsalvestrini> bradford: system > administration>synaptic package manager
[08:12] <MTec007> ng: alt CD: "installs on systems with less than about 192MB of RAM." <-- this applys to me.
[08:12] <Ng> Maul555: because people see Herd release announcements on Digg and don't read :/
[08:12] <Maul555> im new to linux, but i know better than to try to run an unstable version...
[08:12] <Nick_oi> well i tried it as root
[08:12] <billy> atomiku: you can use the `md5sum /example/folder` command in a terminal to check them.
[08:12] <Ng> MTec007: ah that could well be the reason then
[08:12] <MTec007> yes.
[08:12] <MTec007> so i do need the alt cd then im guessing
[08:13] <cpsalvestrini> Nick_oi: try doing the same thing with sudo before ti
[08:13] <ChrisGo> so basically sudo -u root su works ?
[08:13] <MTec007> i dont want x installed any way, server only
[08:13] <Nick_oi> cpsalvestrini: i tried as root
[08:13] <inthepit> in TeamSpeak i need to pick my onboard sound and not my sound card...  not sure how cause its not named the same as on the volume selector
[08:13] <AlexC_> MTec007: the Alternate CD does still install X,
[08:13] <AlexC_> MTec007: if you want no X, use the Server CD
[08:13] <ChrisGo> MTec007 the server cd is a base as it gets :)
[08:13] <nekr0z> AlexC_: If asked for...
[08:14] <cpsalvestrini> Nick_oi: did you check the permissions for the file in question? make sure it's executable
[08:14] <atomiku> ive just copied a folder to another hard drive how can I checksum thingy the two folders to make sure its copied correctly?
[08:14] <billy> bradford: have you found and opened synaptic yet?
[08:14] <MTec007> but what about the memory issue?
[08:14] <AlexC_> !repeat | atomiku
[08:14] <ubotu> atomiku: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[08:14] <ChrisGo> how do you add auto start services like in gentoo rc-update add sshd default works?
[08:14] <cpsalvestrini> Nick_oi: also, try looking for a deb package for java 6, it installs better
[08:14] <billy> atomiku: use the md5sum command in a terminal.
[08:14] <nekr0z> MTec007: how much memory do you have?
[08:14] <MTec007> 128
[08:15] <atomiku> billy: how, i read the --help but it didnt tell me much
[08:15] <phewl> haha
[08:15] <superkirbyartist> !virus
[08:15] <inthepit> Nick_oi: use automatix to install java.  not easyubuntu
[08:15] <phewl> it tells you exactly how to do it
[08:15] <ubotu> A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[08:15] <Nick_oi> cpsalvestrini: sorry stupid, stupid ,stupid windows habits:)
[08:15] <cpsalvestrini> atomiku: try looking up the manpage for the app you're trying to run
[08:15] <superkirbyartist> !swap
[08:15] <ubotu> swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[08:15] <lilrayray> hi all, how would I go about disabling one of my cores on my dual core intel processor?
[08:15] <inthepit> automatix installs 6 easyubuntu installs 5
[08:15] <nekr0z> MTec007: should be enough for a system without x
[08:15] <AlexC_> lilrayray: no idea, but why would you want to do that?
[08:15] <cpsalvestrini> lol Nick_oi :) I know, took me a while to care about permissions
[08:15] <maggi> hi there! i'm trying to build a custom live cd from ubuntu 6.10. all i want is using a patched kernel instead of the one that came with caspar. my problem: after booting caspar from the cd (testing done with VMWare) and chosing my patched kernel, the kernel fails to boot because it isnt able to open /scripts/caspar (message: "/init: .: 124: Can't open /scripts/caspar") and ends up with a panic. any idea?
[08:16] <cheeseboy> hi can someone help me configure mythtv with lirc?
[08:16] <atomiku> im trying to check a folder though
[08:16] <Nick_oi> thanks a lot cpsalvestrini :)
[08:16] <freak1> i want to download vlc player  And codecs Where i can download this things for Ubuntu?
[08:16] <kny> if i install ubuntu using this computer on a hdd i afterwards put into another computer, will it cause any trouble? like, is the hardware it was being installed upon of any importance?
[08:16] <AlexC_> freak1: open up Synaptic and search for "vlc"
[08:16] <cpsalvestrini> yw Nick_oi :)
[08:16] <lilrayray> AlexC_: because ubuntu seems to be incapable of handling a dualcore processor.  Ubuntu freezes up COMPLETELY every so often
[08:16] <inthepit> freak1: use automatix
[08:17] <inthepit> http://getautomatix.com
[08:17] <freak1> And codecs?
[08:17] <atomiku> how can I md5sum a folder?
[08:17] <_ant_> !automatix
[08:17] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[08:17] <inthepit> all of it is on there
[08:17] <AlexC_> freak1: VLC comes with a lot of codecs, but also:
[08:17] <Ng> don't use automatix
[08:17] <MTec007> nekr0z: will the ram be a problem? the live cd wouldnt load for me to install it. im thinking the install gui may pose the same threat
[08:17] <Ng> read the wiki
[08:17] <AlexC_> !restricted | freak1
[08:17] <ubotu> freak1: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[08:17] <kanzie> Is there something wrong with the lupine.me.uk-repos? They take forever to update...
[08:17] <ChrisGo> wow never get answers lol
[08:17] <phewl> !worksforme
[08:17] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[08:17] <AlexC_> lilrayray: I've ran Ubutun on both a AMD X2 and an intel core 2 duo ... both cores work fine
[08:17] <nekr0z> kny: I did that without any issue. But the video card can be a problem as far as I understand
[08:17] <ChrisGo> ok how bout this ont he server cd is sshd installed by default?
[08:18] <kny> oh, so the videocard setup is being determined during installation only? nothing else?
[08:18] <lilrayray> AlexC_: well your lucky. I have an older Pentium D, and it freezes up somewhat often
[08:18] <nekr0z> MTec007: Try XFCE for GUI, not GNOME.
[08:18] <AlexC_> ChrisGo: to connect the the server you'll need to install openssh-server
[08:18] <billy> atomiku: i'm not sure if you can do entire folders.  if you make sure the contents of each folder is identical and then md5sum a couple of the files, there's a exceeding high chance that everything went fine.
[08:18] <AlexC_> lilrayray: weird, never heard of any one have problems with that cpu
[08:18] <Alpenmilchschoko> I still cannot understand..what is so special about Ubuntu?
[08:18] <MTec007> how would i do that?
[08:18] <nekr0z> MTec007: but I myself have run Dapper on 96 MB system
[08:18] <ChrisGo> AlexC_ thanks so i do have to install just didnt know if it was instaleld by default thanks
[08:18] <AlexC_> Alpenmilchschoko: use it and see for you're self
[08:18] <dumbalien> can i partition an active windows hd, without aff ecting the files
[08:18] <atomiku> billy: i need to be completely sure
[08:19] <cheeseboy> can someone help me configure mythtv with lirc
[08:19] <cheeseboy> ?
[08:19] <slvmchn> i have two soundcards, but when i boot they randomly get put in order, so sometimes my onboard is /dev/dsp and other times it's dev/dsp1. is there somewhere i can actually assign these? and the volume menu only lets me swith between them, i want to be able to specify which soundcard is /dev/dsp and which is /dev/dsp1
[08:19] <Alpenmilchschoko> AlexC_: i do
[08:19] <apallo> is it possible to make everything in gnome passwordless?
[08:19] <billy> Alpenmilchschoko: geared for those new to Linux.  "Sees" a lot of hardware, and has a huge support group (us).
[08:19] <fwtest> where can i find header file which defines FRIBIDI_CHARSET_UTF8 ?
[08:19] <PriceChild> Alpenmilchschoko, this is a support channel... best to go #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:19] <nekr0z> kny: No, but the settings for video driver are in xorg.conf and system might not run GNOME without reconfiguring xorg if you migrate from NVidia to ATI, for example.
[08:20] <kny> ah, i see. thank you.
[08:20] <Alpenmilchschoko> thanks
[08:20] <cheeseboy> anyone?
[08:20] <kny> would it also work if the host system is virtual, as in vmware, only?
[08:20] <lilrayray> AlexC_: I have read that linux tends to have problems with dualcores.  Anyway, I noticed on 6.06 that, by default, only one core was active, and it worked quite well.  I then installed the 64bit 6.06 and started getting these freezes.  Im running 6.10 i386 and it shows two cores active, and I am getting these freezes
[08:20] <MTec007> nekr0z: i have 6.10 not 6.06
[08:20] <cheeseboy> help
[08:20] <billy> atomicu:  one moment.  I'll see what I can dig up about md5sum/chksum'ing an entire folder.
[08:20] <billy> where's bradford?
[08:20] <AlexC_> cheeseboy: how do you expect us to help if you just go "help" ?
[08:20] <dumbalien> can i partition an active windows hd, without aff ecting the files
[08:21] <maddash> atomicu, billy: why not just tar the folder
[08:21] <slvmchn> i have two soundcards, but when i boot they randomly get put in order, so sometimes my onboard is /dev/dsp and other times it's dev/dsp1. is there somewhere i can actually assign these? and the volume menu only lets me swith between them, i want to be able to specify which soundcard is /dev/dsp and which is /dev/dsp1
[08:21] <cheeseboy> i asked my question twice
[08:21] <cpsalvestrini> dumbalien: yes you can, there's ways to do that
[08:21] <twysted> llilrayray, it almost sounsd like a hardware issue
[08:21] <atomiku> maddash: the folder is like 30gig
[08:21] <Ng> cheeseboy: #mythtv might be a better option
[08:21] <AlexC_> cheeseboy: just ask you're question again, next time, instead of just going "help". I'm not going to go hunting up and down this IRC channel trying to find you're question,
[08:21] <nekr0z> MTec007: Didn't try 6.10 (that machine died in a battle against a cup of coffee), sorry :(
[08:21] <dumbalien> cpsalvestrini - is it difficult , dumbalien = newbie
[08:21] <ChrisGo> kinda windows like it asked for the cd
[08:21] <MTec007> lol
[08:21] <Maul555> cheeseboy:  this is a very busy chan, sometimes you have to repeat your entire and concise question several times, but not so often as to annoy the ops...
[08:22] <halasao> hello all
[08:22] <ChrisGo> lol not good if server is off site
[08:22] <cheeseboy> how do i configure mythtv with lirc?
[08:22] <maddash> atomiku: then grab the "ls" of each directory and "diff" them
[08:22] <halasao> who can tell how to mount ntfs in ubuntu
[08:22] <cpsalvestrini> dumbalien: not at all, unless your partition in MS WinBloze is very full
[08:22] <nekr0z> Have problem with a camera, it used to connect to my laptop OK, but after some update F-Spot says I'm not allowed to access USB device or something like this. I have found in forums, that camera should be in /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libgphoto2.rules to work good, but mine IS ALREADY there, so I seem to be stuck. Any ideas?
[08:22] <atomiku> maddash: how?
[08:22] <AlexC_> cheeseboy: #mythtv
[08:22] <ChrisGo> can you disable apt-get install from asking for cd?
[08:22] <_F00BaR> hey

[08:23] <dumbalien> cpsalvestrini - would i be better off , reformatting and then dual booting
[08:23] <MTec007> nekr0z: so can i run XCFE from the boot screen?
[08:23] <twysted> _F00BaR what are you trying to install
[08:23] <cpsalvestrini> _F00BaR: What pkg ar you trying to install?
[08:23] <_F00BaR> Xchat
[08:23] <twysted> _F00BaR from source or from a package?
[08:24] <_F00BaR> .deb
[08:24] <twysted> _F00BaR sudo apt-get install xchat
[08:24] <AlexC_> _F00BaR: just go into Synaptic and serach for "xchat"
[08:24] <flake> my desklets didn't start back up, dont know if it would be a good idea to do away with top taskbar in gnome
[08:24] <maddash> atomiku: `ls -l <path to folder>   >  filename ; ls -l <folder2>  > filename 2 ;  diff filename filename2;`
[08:24] <_ant_> heh, so many ways...
[08:24] <cpsalvestrini> try installing the dbus library from synaptic F00BaR
[08:24] <ChrisGo> the packages.ubuntu site just died
[08:24] <|Jason8|> I just reformatted my hard drive and reinstalled ubuntu, but grub didn't come along.  Now when I boot, it gives me a Grub 15 error.  How can I fix this?
[08:24] <ChrisGo> its just really slow my bad
[08:24] <nekr0z> MTec007: Well, XFCE is not supplied on Ubuntu CD. You might install a non-GUI system and apt-get xubuntu-desktop (or try Xubuntu CD :)
[08:24] <_F00BaR> cpsalvestrini link?
[08:25] <Maul555> chrisgo: whew...
[08:25] <ChrisGo> _F00BaR did you try apt-get install libdbus-1-3 ?
[08:25] <AlexC_> _F00BaR: we install software differently in Linux, we don't go to websites and downloading random files, and double clicking on them.

[08:25] <atomiku> okay thanks
[08:26] <twysted> _f00BaR what doesnt work
[08:26] <cpsalvestrini> F00BaR: type this on a terminal: sudo apt-get install libdbus-1-3
[08:26] <AlexC_> twysted: other distros have repositories as well =)
[08:26] <AlexC_> _F00BaR: we have a central 'repository' system, that you can access thousands of software by going to "System-->Admin->Synaptic"
[08:26] <_F00BaR> cpsalvestrini, done
[08:27] <_ant_> hey is there a list of "non-official" repos out there?
[08:27] <cpsalvestrini> okay. now try installing xchat
[08:27] <AlexC_> _ant_: my guess is it would be too big a list,
[08:27] <AlexC_> _ant_: anyone can setup their own repo, so, there will be loads

[08:27] <|Jason8|> _F00BaR, try sudo apt-get install x-chat
[08:28] <AlexC_> _F00BaR: why are you root ?
[08:28] <cpsalvestrini> that's a good Q F00BaR
[08:28] <bikini> what do you type into the command line after a command to make it run as a background process.. so that i can close the console without shutting down the program?
[08:28] <AlexC_> bikini: you can just press alt+f2 to "run" it
[08:28] <maddash> bikini: run it with "alt+f2"
[08:28] <lisapc> hi
[08:28] <lisapc> whats the difference between ubuntu-6.10-alternate-i386.iso and ubuntu-6.10-desktop-i386.iso ?
[08:28] <AlexC_> _F00BaR: sudo apt-get install xchat-gnome
[08:29] <cpsalvestrini> F00BaR: Did you check that universe / multiverse repos are enabled?
[08:29] <bikini> maddash: i'm trying to run checkgmail, but its not in my programs list so i open it in the console.
[08:29] <AlexC_> lisapc: one has a LiveCD and the other doesn't. Desktop is the LiveCD version
[08:29] <AlexC_> lisapc: so you can try it before you install
[08:29] <maddash> bikini: my suggestion holds
[08:29] <bikini> wait nevermind
[08:29] <_ant_> AlexC_ : i think foobar needs to add some repos (multi and such)

[08:33] <maggi> hi there! i'm trying to build a custom live cd from ubuntu 6.10. all i want is using a patched kernel instead of the one that came with caspar. my problem: after booting caspar from the cd (testing done with VMWare) and chosing my patched kernel, the kernel fails to boot because it isnt able to open /scripts/caspar (message: "/init: .: 124: Can't open /scripts/caspar") and ends up with a panic. any idea?

[08:33] <AlexC_> _F00BaR: did you read the link I gave you?

[08:33] <billy> aorthr33; not sure gnome supports that.  maybe though, I'd like to know myself.
[08:34] <_F00BaR> could not find package

[08:51] <ArthurB> Hi, I have a bit of a problem with lvm and mdadm
[08:51] <rdw200169> garuhhh, what you are interested in is what iptables has in it's FORWARD table
[08:51] <ArthurB> I don't use raid - at all -
[08:52] <rdw200169> garuhhh, do this, type $sudo iptables-save
[08:52] <garuhhh> rdw: ok... what needs to be forwarded and to where...
[08:52] <rdw200169> this shows you the rules you have right now
[08:52] <ArthurB> but I use LVM... it seems after last upgrade a package called mdadm dealing with raid had problems
[08:52] <ArthurB> it produces warning when installed
[08:52] <garuhhh> rdw... ok i'll do that..
[08:52] <ArthurB> and when I reboot
[08:52] <ArthurB> /dev/mapper isn't found ...
[08:52] <ArthurB> while it still exists (I can chroot in it from a livecd for example)
[08:53] <ArthurB> anyone knows what to do ?
[08:53] <rdw200169> garuhhh, you should see a bunch of stuff in after INPUT, OUTPUT, INBOUND, OUTBOUND, LSI, and LSO
[08:53] <rdw200169> garuhhh, what you want is what's after FORWARD
[08:53] <jeanre> can you show a file stucture in vim on the side?
[08:54] <rdw200169> garuhhh, for ex, mine says "-A FORWARD -p icmp -m limit --limit 10/sec -j ACCEPT"
[08:54] <homerj> push it to the limmit
[08:54] <rdw200169> garuhhh, then "-A FORWARD -j LOG_FILTER"
[08:54] <rdw200169> garuhhh, then "-A FORWARD -j LOG --log-prefix "Unknown Forward" --log-level"
[08:54] <rdw200169> garuhhh, and that's it
[08:55] <garuhhh> rdw... i can't see to understand what i saw! :D there's a whole lot of them!
[08:55] <ChrisGo> i see universe to uncomment in the sources.list but no multiverse do i have to manually add?
[08:55] <rdw200169> garuhhh, with the FORWARD ones?
[08:56] <nekr0z> ChrisGo: check again, it shoud be there. But you can add one as well :)))
[08:56] <garuhhh> ok.. i see forward
[08:56] <AlexC_> ChrisGo: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/extra-repositories.html
[08:56] <ChrisGo> AlexC_ I dont have gui
[08:56] <garuhhh> rdw: yes it has FORWARD and finally the j LOG_FILTER
[08:57] <bruenig> ChrisGo, do this: echo "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy multiverse" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list && sudo apt-get update
[08:58] <diezare> Does the gcc, work with c++?
[08:58] <bruenig> !info gcc
[08:58] <ubotu> gcc: The GNU C compiler. In component main, is optional. Version 4:4.1.1-6ubuntu3 (edgy), package size 5 kB, installed size 64 kB
[08:58] <ArthurB> use gpp
[08:58] <bruenig> hmm just says c
[08:58] <nekr0z> diezare: g++ does
[08:58] <garuhhh> rdw: in firestarter, the FORWARD service policy seems to be blank
[08:58] <diezare> nekr0z: ok, thanks alot.
[08:58] <garuhhh> rdw: but in the iptables... lots of them!
[08:59] <ChrisGo> bruenig thanks

[09:00] <freak1> yA Cyrus25801 Go in System Tab There is option About Ubuntu
[09:00] <bruenig> Muffelmuff, at least by default, maybe the alternative has some option or something that I didn't see because I wasn't looking for it

[09:01] <nekr0z> Have problem with a camera, it used to connect to my laptop OK, but after some update F-Spot says I'm not allowed to access USB device or something like this. I have found in forums, that camera should be in /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libgphoto2.rules to work good, but mine IS ALREADY there, so I seem to be stuck. Any ideas?

[09:04] <Cyrus25801> ?
[09:04] <nekr0z> Cyrus25801: Sligtly different kernel.
[09:04] <Pelo> Cyrus25801,  server stuff part of the default install , you think ?
[09:04] <bruenig> freak1, it says on the website how to do it
[09:04] <Muffelmuff> bruenig, i can only find the alternative-cd with kernel <IP_ADDRESS>-386, but i need the kernel 2.6.15-23-386 for crpytsetup and LUKS...

[09:07] <Cyrus25801> nekr0z: could you pls go into more detail. im a newbie
[09:07] <tuntis> anyways, I'm not sure if I need it, since I've got 10gb of unallocated space in the hard disk I wanna install to
[09:07] <tuntis> can the installer's "basic functions" automatically make use of it?
[09:07] <nekr0z> Cyrus25801: You have Synaptic on that system, don't you?
[09:07] <tuntis> uh, I mean unpartitioned
[09:08] <Cyrus25801> nekr0z: yes
[09:08] <ArthurB> anyone ?
[09:08] <maggi> i'm still having trouble booting my custom live cd..
[09:08] <maggi> i'm trying to build a custom live cd from ubuntu 6.10. all i want is using a patched kernel instead of the one that came with caspar. my problem: after booting caspar from the cd (testing done with VMWare) and chosing my patched kernel, the kernel fails to boot because it isnt able to open /scripts/caspar (message: "/init: .: 124: Can't open /scripts/caspar") and ends up with a panic. any idea?
[09:08] <ArthurB> I have LVM but not raid... do I need mdadm ?
[09:08] <nekr0z> Cyrus25801: fire it up and look for installed package linux-image-{something}, that's a kernel
[09:09] <Peacefulmunda> can any1 help to mount my fat32 and ntfs partitions in linux
[09:09] <Cyrus25801> !
[09:09] <Peacefulmunda> i mean in ubuntu
[09:09] <Peacefulmunda> :D
[09:09] <bruenig> Muffelmuff, here is a link to the ubuntu package of that kernel you want, seems like you could install ubuntu and then just wget and install this, http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.15/linux-image-2.6.15-23-386_2.6.15-23.39_i386.deb
[09:09] <Jowi> !mount | Peacefulmunda
[09:09] <ubotu> Peacefulmunda: Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[09:10] <nekr0z> Cyrus25801: you'll see this package name ending with "-generic", that is, a kernel for ordinary system. There's another one, with same number, but ending with "-server"
[09:10] <Peacefulmunda> i dont know how to use the command line
[09:10] <Peacefulmunda> i am new to ubuntu
[09:10] <nekr0z> Cyrus25801: That one is for servers, you need to install it.
[09:10] <Jowi> Peacefulmunda, then the first you need is this
[09:10] <Jowi> !commands | Peacefulmunda
[09:10] <ubotu> Peacefulmunda: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[09:10] <Peacefulmunda> Jowi: okay
[09:10] <inthepit> anyone else have a lifecam vx3000?
[09:11] <Tonren> Peacefulmunda: It's intimidating at first, but it starts to make a lot of sense after a week or two.
[09:11] <reap> does anyone knoe if there is an installatioin of ubuntu that has an edited xorg so that my video doesnt come up all messed up
[09:11] <Peacefulmunda> wat do u mean by the exclamation mark?
[09:11] <nekr0z> Cyrus25801: After you do, reboot, and you'll have option, which kernel to load. Choose a server one.
[09:11] <bruenig> !repeat | inthepit you will probably get more help on something so specific as that in the forums
[09:11] <ubotu> inthepit you will probably get more help on something so specific as that in the forums: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you.

[09:11] <reap> i cant use the liveCD or alternate installations on 6.10 or 6.06\
[09:11] <maggi> reap: you could try building a custom live cd
[09:11] <maggi> i'm on it myself

[09:11] <reap> how difficult is that to do?
[09:11] <maggi> ...withou success, so far :D
[09:11] <jamison_>  #ubuntu
[09:11] <reap> lmao
[09:11] <nekr0z> Cyrus25801: Then fire up Synaptic again and remove the unneeded generic kernel. That's it.
[09:12] <reap> i guess i have no choice if i want to ever get ubuntu installed
[09:12] <freak1> want to install Oracle9i how can i ?
[09:12] <Cyrus25801> nekr0z: cool but there are more than one that says server
[09:12] <maggi> i dont think so
[09:12] <Peacefulmunda> bruengi: well i am new to irc as well and dont know much abt it
[09:12] <maggi> you could install it in text-mode
[09:12] <Peacefulmunda> but i really want to switch to linux
[09:12] <bruenig> Peacefulmunda, right so I am telling you
[09:12] <Flosoft> hey
[09:12] <Flosoft> how do I enable MP3 support in Rhythmbox?
[09:12] <Peacefulmunda> i am listening ...
[09:12] <maggi> and install proper graphic card drivers afterwards
[09:12] <bruenig> Peacefulmunda, if you set it up right in the installer, you should have been able to have them mounted already by default
[09:13] <bruenig> !quicktime | Flosoft
[09:13] <ubotu> Flosoft: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[09:13] <reap> maggi, the problem i have is as soon as it goes into graphical mode everything on the screen is corrupt and town looking
[09:13] <reap> torn*
[09:13] <nekr0z> Cyrus25801: sure, they are different versions and for different systems. Yours should be the same as in installed generic one.
[09:13] <Jowi> Flosoft you install the codecs. see the restrictedformats page above.
[09:13] <Flosoft> ok
[09:13] <Peacefulmunda> man there was somthing like install to the largest free portion and i selected that
[09:13] <Peacefulmunda> apart from that there was no other options to configure the hard disk ...
[09:14] <_ant_> heh
[09:14] <maggi> reap: msg
[09:14] <jamison_> Does anyone know how to get out of full screen mode in VMWare
[09:14] <maggi> strg+alt+escape
[09:15] <joe4444> ok, looks like memtest found a problem with the RAM: "Unexpected Interrupt - Halting" then it shows a bunch of stuff that looks like memory addresses
[09:15] <nekr0z> Cyrus25801: Read a comment that Synaptic provides for every package to understand the whole idea a bit closer.
[09:15] <Cyrus25801> nekr0z: so if the one installed now is "kernel image for version 2.6.15 on 386" then i should choose "Linux kernel image for version 2.6.15 on Server Equipment" (but there is also one that is called big iron)
[09:15] <joe4444> so one of these sticks could be bad?
[09:15] <bruenig> Peacefulmunda, I am not very good with fstab which is what is required to get them to mount automatically. I have some rudimentary knowledge of it but I have yet to get into the specifics of UID and all the other nuances, but if you want to mount something in general you would do something like this "sudo mount -t vfat /dev/whatever /path/to/mount/point" for fat32 at least which is what you said one of your partitions is
[09:15] <reap> maggi, msg?
[09:15] <Cyrus25801> nekr0z: so if the one installed now is "kernel image for version 2.6.15 on 386" then i should choose "Linux kernel image for version 2.6.15 on Server Equipment" (but there is also one that is called big iron)
[09:15] <Maul555> joe4444:  boot with just one stick, and then the other...  youll find the problem stick..
[09:15] <maggi> query..
[09:15] <nekr0z> Cyrus25801: Yes, exactly. Your system isn't BigIron, is it?
[09:16] <Peacefulmunda> bruengi: thats a lot of help man
[09:16] <joe4444> k, one sec
[09:16] <Peacefulmunda> bruengi: thumbs up :D

[09:16] <Cyrus25801> nekr0z: i see thanx a stack man
[09:16] <bruenig> Peacefulmunda, you  need to know /dev/whatever and /mount/point, although you can just choose the /mount/point wherever you want it to be so long as it is an empty directory
[09:16] <nekr0z> Cyrus25801: You're welcome! ;-)

[09:18] <Tonren> How do I mount an "ace" archive as a cdrom image?  Can I?
[09:18] <Peacefulmunda> bruengi: i went there and there was a button saying activate
[09:18] <maggi> Tonren: nope, afaik
[09:19] <Peacefulmunda> bruengi: i tried to active but it didnt
[09:19] <maggi> ace isnt GPLed...
[09:19] <Tonren> maggi: Hmm.. ok, how do I extract it?  do I need to install some kinda stupid package?
[09:19] <nekr0z> Cyrus25801: But indeed, the generic and server kernels are the same, just tuned differently (one for server performance, another one for ordinary system). They both would work on a server in fact :))))
[09:19] <maggi> yes
[09:19] <maggi> called "unace"
[09:19] <Tonren> maggi: thanks

[09:21] <nekr0z> _ant_: That's what I like about sitting here. Didn't solve my own problem, but gained a lot anyway :)))
[09:21] <ArthurB> dpkg
[09:21] <bruenig> Joboo, sudo dpkg -i *.deb
[09:21] <Joboo> thanks
[09:21] <_ant_> nekr0z : your time will come.. just wait for the right geek.
[09:22] <_ant_> he's idling in here somewhere
[09:22] <Maul555> what does "sudo dpkg -i *.*" mean?
[09:22] <nekr0z> _ant_: That's exactly what I'm doing :)))
[09:22] <bruenig> Maul555, nothing, asterisks are wild card character, so it would have dpkg try to install anything that has a dot in it
[09:22] <dumbalien> help: is it worth installing ubuntu so i can try beryl, if my comp is a P3-2Ghz 256mb ram and 32mb Nvidia geforce ???
[09:22] <_ant_> and help a couple of easy ones along the way
[09:22] <ArthurB> super user call the dpkg program to install every package you find in the current directory
[09:23] <jrib> Joboo: just double click on it, make sure it is for your version of ubuntu and is not in the ubuntu repos already
[09:23] <Maul555> ok... i used asteriks on purpose because i know that... i was referring to the rest of it...
[09:23] <mynikkie> hi
[09:23] <kitche> dumbalien: that is really up to you to decide if it's worth it or not but beryl can run fine on that system
[09:23] <maggi> dumbalien: msg
[09:23] <bruenig> Maul555, oh, sudo is super user, dpkg is the  debian package manager, -i is the flag that means install
[09:23] <dumbalien> maggi: msg??
[09:23] <Tonren> maggi: wtf... "unace l" works fine, but when I "unace e": File compressed with unknown method. Decompression not possible.
[09:24] <Maul555> ahh, coo
[09:24] <maggi> yes
[09:24] <maggi> i encountered that problem too
[09:24] <maggi> unace does not seem to be compatible to all ace-versions
[09:24] <bruenig> it is all very logical if you take the time to understand it
[09:24] <Tonren> maggi: That's completely lame.  What do I do?
[09:25] <Maul555> bruenig: yeah, there is just so much...
