[00:00] <Schuenemann> Stargazer, is the partition mounted in places?
[00:00] <Stroganoff> Phantomime_: no need for uninstalling. just use the cd of your next operating system and format (a.k.a. delete) the partition ubuntu is installed on.
[00:00] <Phantomime_> Anyone know what that error might be? I can physically open my cd drive by pushing the button.
[00:00] <Stargazer> Schuenemann: yeah, i guess.
[00:00] <IntuitiveNipple> Schuenemann: I've replied to your forum topic
[00:00] <Sertse> hi, building from a minimal install. what needs to be added where so I don't need root to shutdown/restart the comp.
[00:00] <Phantomime_> so, just insert the disk and boot from it?
[00:00] <Mike_92> I'm having trouble setting up my printer in Intrepid. Ubuntu has detected it, but when I try to print it just feeds the paper through about six times. Can someone please help me?
[00:00] <Stroganoff> Phantomime_: that's right
[00:01] <Phantomime_> How difficult is this for windows?
[00:01] <oobe> Phantomime_, what thos instructions are telling you to do is format the partition you install ubuntu on which isnt very wise from inside ubuntu
[00:01] <Schuenemann> IntuitiveNipple, I'll get the notebook and try. brb
[00:01] <jeffy> n wine
[00:01] <Phantomime_> I see..
[00:02] <oobe> the simplest way to uninstall ubuntu is to wipe the partition with the install disk you are trying to install over the top with
[00:02] <Phantomime_> I am going to try and do it ith the winxp cd
[00:02] <Phantomime_> with*
[00:02] <Stroganoff> with an xp it's pretty easy. you get to a screen where you can select partitions and delete them with the "D" key. it's all described on the screen. i imagine it's even easier with vista, so there should be no trouble
[00:02] <Stargazer> how do i copy paste my old /home using a LiveCD ?
[00:02] <Phantomime_> brb
[00:02] <Phantomime_> Thanks Stroganoff!
[00:02] <oobe> Phantomime_, yes that will work the ubuntu partition will show up as unknown disk in xp cause its dumb
[00:02] <Stroganoff> see you next time ;)
[00:03] <Stroganoff> Mike_92: first things first. what printer is it?
[00:03] <ricardo_> hello!
[00:04] <Mike_92> Stroganoff: Lexmark 3100 Series
[00:04] <ricardo_> bomdia
[00:04] <Mike_92> Stroganoff: it came with an installer CD, would I have to put that in to get it to work?
[00:04] <binarymutant> Is there a way to get gksu, and applications that use it like everything under the System-Administration menu, to not lock the screen?
[00:04] <Schuenemann> Stargazer, if the partition is moutned, just copy/paste somewhere
[00:04] <ricardo_> can ubuntu do faxing like Windows 95
[00:05] <Stargazer> Schuenemann: it's saying i don't have the permissions.
[00:05] <FlareDS> ricardo_: yes
[00:05] <Keith1> I really need some help with my wireless, I've tried everything, and I can not get it to work.  It is BCM43XG rev 01.  Worked when I installed Ubuntu, then after the first reboot it stopped.  Enabling it through Hardware Drivers does nothing.  Tried countless ndiswrapper guides, all failed.  Any ideas?
[00:05] <Schuenemann> Stargazer, sudo nautils and try again
[00:05] <jason_> I've got some wifi issues. I follow http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1026770 yesterday and got it working, but it's not working anymore today. can anyone help me?
[00:05] <ricardo_> if so please tell me how to fax in Ubuntu
[00:06] <little> rakudave: That is really nice! I like how it just does it without you having to tell it which language to translate from and to. (:
[00:06] <rainmanp7> .
[00:06] <olaf> if i install a really old version of ubuntu
[00:06] <olaf> is their an easy way to get it up to the latest
[00:06] <rakudave> little: glad you like it :)
[00:06] <olaf> ?
[00:06] <roger_> after i updated to kernel 2.6.27-11 the alsa driver quit working in wine, esound works, but it has a choppy sound, anyway to fix alsa to work again
[00:06] <ricardo_> please show me how to fax in ubuntu
[00:07] <olaf> through just upgrading
[00:07] <olaf> over the internet
[00:07] <little> rakudave: I'm on Amazon trying out different languages. (:
[00:07] <ricardo_> please show me how to fax in ubuntu
[00:07] <IntuitiveNipple> olaf: updates from older to newer are generally only supported from one LTS to another... how *old* is old?
[00:07] <ricardo_> please show me how to fax in ubuntu
[00:07] <olaf> lemme look at the cd
[00:07] <rakudave> olaf: wouldn't advise it, it probably takes more bandwidth to download all updates than just to download an iso
[00:07] <porter1> In Gedit, is there any way to replace all tabs with newlines?
[00:07] <ricardo_> please show me how to fax in ubuntu

[00:08] <Stroganoff> Mike_92: it seems there's little chance to get most lexmark printers to work. you could try this perhaps try this clue: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1693163&postcount=6

[00:09] <Keith1> ricardo_: Canon ip2600
[00:09] <IntuitiveNipple> ricardo_: Read this topic in the forums for Fax ideas (it assumes you have a supported fax/modem installed) http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=234456
[00:09] <mike12> to make it work
[00:10] <IndyGunFreak> !hardware | ricardo_ but usually lexmark runs pretty good... (atleast in my experience)
[00:10] <Keith1> ricardo_: Need to download a couple files from Canon Asia, but it works great
[00:10] <Mike_92> Stroganoff: I'll try that thanks. Do you have any recommendations for printers that work well with Ubuntu, I've been planning on getting a new one anyway.
[00:10] <mike12> actually the game is called enemy territory
[00:10] <Stroganoff> Mike_92: i just read in the course of googling your problem that EPSON printers work quite well
[00:10] <Mike_92> Stroganoff: Okay thanks :)

[00:11] <Stroganoff> anyway you should always check the model with google before you buy. something like this: "epson xyz1000 ubuntu" (without the ")
[00:11] <_cb> Using Clonezilla I choose local dev and a message that says "Collecting the disk info in this machine.." appears. Not sure if this step takes a whle or system is hung up.
[00:11] <Keith1> jason_: Good luck, I'm in here with virtually the same issue
[00:11] <IntuitiveNipple> Schuenemann: Am I correct in assuming the username you expect to see is "otto" as in my example commands?
[00:12] <jason_> Keith1: hmmmm thanks
[00:12] <Schuenemann> IntuitiveNipple, yeah
[00:12] <ricardo_> can anyone sync their zune? in which player?
[00:12] <Schuenemann> IntuitiveNipple, perhaps .xsession is the cause?
[00:12] <Schuenemann> fluxbox is only used in slackware
[00:12] <IntuitiveNipple> Schuenemann: okay, and that list you posted shows several what I would think are key directories/files that might be affected if they have the wrong owner
[00:12] <IntuitiveNipple> Schuenemann: snap, I was thinking that is a prime candidate
[00:12] <perillux> I have low frame rate on flash video playback, such as youtube videos.  However, videos in vlc for example play good.  It seems like flash videos should play good too if I can play them fine in vlc... is there maybe anything I can do to correct this?
[00:13] <Schuenemann> IntuitiveNipple, I only have gnome in ubuntu
[00:13] <ricardo_> can anyone sync their zune? in which player?

[00:15] <Schuenemann> IntuitiveNipple, I changed group for .xsession, didn't help. Sigh...
[00:15] <rainmanp7> Man I just don't know what to do with this Ubuntu I'm so use to fixing virusus and system crashes and always looking for problems now I'm just looking to do new things it's almost sick that i'm always expecting a crash like from windows or some malware crap ,but it jsut doesn't seem to happen.
[00:15] <IntuitiveNipple> Schuenemann: If it were me, using multiple distros, I'd have a separate /home/ for each, but then have all the common files (not application configuration files) in another location, and link to it from each /home/ with a symbolic-link. e.g. ~/Documents -> /home/common/ and have /home/common/ mounted in a separate partition/LVM volume
[00:15] <socksy> ricardo_: try not repeating the question so many times
[00:16] <Stroganoff> ricardo_: have you tried googling "ubuntu zune"
[00:16] <Schuenemann> IntuitiveNipple, I think it was a bad idea what I did. It was suggested by slackware installer
[00:16] <ricardo_> Stroganoffi
[00:16] <IntuitiveNipple> Schuenemann: Have you checked the user's .xsession log file?
[00:17] <swif> Is there CD/DVD burning software available for Linux that is capable of data disc spanning?  I don't want to split my files and folders manually, if I can help it.
[00:17] <ricardo_> sorry Stroganoff it is nice  that you can answer my question!
[00:17] <IntuitiveNipple> Schuenemann: ~/.xsessions-errors

[00:19] <Stroganoff> ricardo_: zune uses the proprietary "MTP" protocoll. i just gathered, that rythmbox might be able to support it

[00:20] <zaapiel> just installed kubuntu
[00:20] <etix> wewt for you

[00:22] <dmi3on> can any one tell why vnc server works with sudo and with out sudo i can see only black dotted screen
[00:22] <binarymutant> Is there a way to get gksu, and applications that use it like everything under the System-Administration menu, to not lock the screen? I'm using a tablet with no keyboard :(
[00:23] <little> dmi3on: Probably since it's the system that's serving it, and it provides you the freedom to log out and be replaced by another user without interrupting the service.
[00:23] <dmi3on> little, what system ?
[00:24] <little> dmi3on: The operating system rather than you, the user. That way if you, the user, log off, the server would still run. I'm just guessing.
[00:24] <Stroganoff> binarymutant: that's a good question. commencing google....
[00:24] <dmi3on> ok
[00:25] <dmi3on> little, do you know how to soleve thsi

[00:25] <boquita_dulce> alguien que hable español
[00:25] <little> dmi3on: No, sorry. I've never used it. I'm just guessing since it's serving something that it needs to be done by the operating system rather than by you.

[00:27] <Keith1> Why do I have a pan0 in my network manager? What is that?  Could it possibly be my nonworking wireless?

[00:28] <Keith1> zash_: I don't have a bluetooth adapter o.o
[00:28] <Stroganoff> binarymutant: ok i found that, too. but how to tell the settings menu and all those programs to use these paramters?
[00:28] <little> boquita_dulce: Do you not know the username and password?
[00:29] <binarymutant> Stroganoff, you change the commands the menu's use by going through System->Preference->Main Menu

[00:30] <Stroganoff> binarydigit all right thanks. i also just read that you can change that option globally in /etc/gksu.conf
[00:30] <little> boquita_dulce: Ah, if you are installing, then you get to give it a name and password - whatever name and password you would like to use. (:

[00:34] <little> slylias: The MBR is on the first 476 bytes of the boot drive.
[00:34] <slylias> Yes, but how do I find out where that is in my file system?
[00:34] <fiftyone_> i have such a  little screen 10" that sometimes programs are just to long and i cant see the botom of it any suggestions?
[00:34] <binarymutant> slylias, I think it lives outside the filesystem
[00:34] <|AR|> slylias: MBR doesn't belong to any filesystem
[00:34] <little> slylias: Do you know which drive you boot from in Ubuntu?
[00:34] <boquita_dulce> little bone I have to assign the user name and password, but I asked that

[00:44] <Baatti> I succesfully installed GTA San Andreas onto Intrepid using Wine, but now when I go to run the application it says that it can't find a CD/DVD ROM Drive...any suggestions?
[00:44] <skullone> does anyone know if theres been a final fix for the "laggy" video performance in firefox?

[00:45] <vince_> usser : Hey, Thanks for your help last night.  I finally got my sound working.
[00:45] <Schuenemann> Baatti, run winecfg and check in units
[00:45] <usser> vince_, what was the problem?
[00:45] <Baatti> ah
[00:45] <Baatti> alright
[00:45] <usser> vince_, new kernel?

[00:46] <BuntuNoob01> im using ibex with all the latest updates on a p4 2.53GHz w/ nvidia 6200XFX 256mb and restricted drivers 177.x --- The problem is that when I scroll long lists (firefox, amerok, file system nav) the whole pc seems to choke any one have a similar problem?
[00:46] <binarymutant> skinofstars11, is it freenode your connecting to? I think there are some NickServ commands you can do or just /nick skinofstars1 (or whatever the name you want)and see what happens
[00:46] <Schuenemann> hi, I'm getting this error all the time. Can someone give a hand? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1056434
[00:46] <vince_> usser : No Idea.. After beating my head agianst a wall  for half the day I fianaly backed up my home directory and nuked my / partion and reloaded everything.  Did a update on the clean system and then reloaded all my programs.  Works fine now LOL.  Sometimes a sledgehammer is better than a scalpel I guess.
[00:46] <skinofstars11> binarymutant: yeah freenode, irc.ubuntu.com doesn't seem to be working for me
[00:46] <[1]Jocke> unop, Thanks, I will!

[00:47] <damien> hello, I just purchased a 30" 2560x1600 monitor.  I have an ATI mobility radeon x1400 and am running 8.10.  Unable to get the monitor to recognize max resolution.  any suggestions?
[00:47] <the6step> therealnanotube: after I install it, where would I find ubuntuzilla?
[00:47] <usser> vince_, haha nice, glad to hear
[00:47] <binarymutant> skinofstars11, it's /msg nickserv ghost to reclaim nicks
[00:47] <therealnanotube> the6step: it goes into /usr/local/bin, so should be in your path by default. just open a terminal, and type the ubuntuzilla.py command to install firefox

[00:48] <swidmer> hello i need help with a bad dovecot install, i am unable to complete the install or remove the install we seem to be quite stuck...
[00:48] <binarymutant> Astray, bitlbee and pidgin has a cli app too
[00:48] <skinofstars1> binarymutant: all works now, thanks
[00:48] <redvamp128> Astray:  you could try possibly amsn - closest thing I have found that is like msn
[00:48] <Astray> binarymutant: Thanks
[00:49] <redvamp128> Astray:  though pidgin does connect well with it-- just without a lot of fancy things like winks -- webcams
[00:49] <therealnanotube> Astray: could also try naim or centericq
[00:50] <the6step> therealnanotube: **** I installed it in spanish.... so 2 questions.... first can I reinstall, and 2nd, what is the correct language code that I want?
[00:50] <vince_> Lucifer_Cat : LOL that works too.
[00:50] <the6step> I though es-en was english
[00:50] <therealnanotube> the6step: yes, you can reinstall, and the us english is "en-US" :)
[00:51] <Schuenemann> es = spanish, en = english
[00:51] <Schuenemann> so es-en makes no sense
[00:51] <redvamp128> es-en -- means spanish language -- english keyboard
[00:51] <Lucifer_Cat> vince_: actually is should be sledgehammer-<whatever the tiny hammer to finetune instruments is called>
[00:51] <therealnanotube> Schuenemann: he probably means "es-ES" :)
[00:52] <exodus_ms> If I want to backup my home directory and reinstall on a new system install could I use    tar cvpzf ~/username    and put the tar file on disk and then extract after I do a new system install?
[00:52] <Schuenemann> therealnanotube, could be
[00:52] <redvamp128> en = english language = us keyboard

[00:52] <NoVARaif> evening all...  I'm almost finished migrating my Intrepid Ibis installation to a new, larger hard drive.  I used the instructions I found here: http://www.linux.com/feature/152592 but have questions about resizing my partitions, and what gparted shows as used on the partitions versus what the partitions properties windows show
[00:52] <dsofws> two accounts, jason and theresa, i created theresa after i created jason. it worked. now, for some weird reason, in all the directory locations under 'places' takes me to everything in /home/jason, not /home/theresa. what would cause that, and where can i fix this? right clicking on the link just opens it as well.
[00:52] <sockets> uh, can someone help me with ndiswrapper and broadcom drivers?.. i uninstalled fwcutter (well it disappeared after i stopped using the restricted drivers, because they just wouldn't pick up anything).. i followed a guide to run a fix in *.sh format..  did all the commands, and checked "sudo ndiswrapper -l" it says driver installed, device present.. ect.. did modprobe.. rebooted.. "sudo iwlist scanning" tells me "lo" and "eth0" don't suppo
[00:53] <madmax__> ive been tryin to google a weird startup error ... i have to hit enter or other keys to get the splash bar to move during startup... hitting ctrl+f1 and watching the output shows nothing out of the ordinary just the normal startup messages but it hangs until i give it some input
[00:53] <madmax__> sockets: do you need the ndiswrapper for your wifi card
[00:53] <damien> hello, I just purchased a 30" 2560x1600 monitor.  I have an ATI mobility radeon x1400 and am running 8.10.  Unable to get the monitor to recognize max resolution.  any suggestions?
[00:53] <madmax__> alot of the broadcom cards are now supported
[00:54] <usser> damien, are you using ati drivers?
[00:54] <damien> usser, no, using fglrx
[00:54] <usser> damien, ati-config utility doesnt list the correct resolution?
[00:54] <damis648> ha thats funny... my name is damian.
[00:54] <swidmer> help dovecot install stuck, apt/ptitude can not finish the install or remove.
[00:55] <damis648> right on time.
[00:55] <damien> usser, dont think so
[00:55] <sockets> madmax__, well the restricted ones just don't pick up anything.. i don't know how to "scan" but i manually enter the name and it tries to connect but doesn't.. only time i got it responding at all was when i changed my wifi settings to WEP (Hex) and it kept asking for password but wouldn't accept any of the ones i gave it, just kept asking over and over
[00:55] <damien> how do i check?
[00:55] <damien> usser,  do you mean the catalyst control centeR?
[00:55] <usser> damien, yea, but there's also a command line tool
[00:55] <madmax__> sockets: can you pm me the output of lspci
[00:55] <damien> usser, right, aticonfig
[00:55] <damien> I'm not sure how to find it though
[00:55] <sockets> madmax__ btw i'm using hardy, and ok
[00:56] <usser> damien, it should be included just open terminal and type aticonfig
[00:56] <bits> DCC TSEND<PHONE_NUMBER>0987654322345678
[00:56] <usser> damien, also what does glxinfo | grep direct say?
[00:56] <usser> damien, do you have 3d acceleration?
[00:56] <damien> usser: direct rendering is yes
[00:57] <damien> just typing aticonfig returns back all the help options
[00:57] <usser> damien, and cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Driver
[00:57] <damien> don't see any resolutions...
[00:57] <dsofws> two accounts, jason and theresa, i created theresa after i created jason. it worked. now, for some weird reason, in all the directory locations under 'places' takes me to everything in /home/jason, not /home/theresa. what would cause that, and where can i fix this? right clicking on the link just opens it as well.
[00:57] <|AR|> damien: probably you want add the max. resol. to Xorg.conf manually
[00:57] <usser> damien, yea its a bit cryptic you'll have to read what it does
[00:58] <madmax__> sockets: does hardy support jockey?
[00:58] <usser> damien, its a secondary monitor i presume?
[00:58] <damien> |AR|, how do i manually add the right mode line in the new xorg format?
[00:58] <damien> usser, thats right secondary
[00:59] <damien> I tried adding a PairModes line to the Device section of xorg.conf
[00:59] <damien> think that might do it?
[00:59] <madmax__> sockets: did you blacklist the b43 and ssb
[00:59] <sockets> madmax__ i see packages : jockey-common and jockey-gtk for hardy
[00:59] <wims> !nvidia
[00:59] <usser> damien, something like aticonfig --dtop=clone
[00:59] <wims> !nvidia > wims
[00:59] <sockets> madmax__ no, lemme look that up and try that real quick, hold on
[01:00] <damien> usser, am i trying to reconfigure my x11 config?
[01:00] <damien> then?
[01:00] <usser> damien, yea back it up
[01:00] <redvamp128> dsofws: so I am assuming that you created a second account and it is still referencing the first account
[01:00] <madmax__> sockets: jockey is the restricted driver manager i have  in 8.10 its how my broadcom sta driver is toggled
[01:00] <damien> usser, okay, thanks guys, im gonig to restart x11
[01:00] <usser> damien, and then aticonfig --resolution2=WxH
[01:00] <damien> thanks
[01:00] <damien> usser, !
[01:00] <madmax__> sockets: try sudo jockey-gtk
[01:00] <usser> damien, this should set your second screen to clone and set the proper res
[01:00] <dsofws> redvamp128, i created the 2nd account, not knowing it would do something weird like this.
[01:01] <redvamp128> dsofws:  I think the fix for that is to specify a password for the second account-- then sign out of the first and sign into the second
[01:01] <usser> damien, try it im not sure it'll work
[01:01] <dsofws> the 2nd account does have a paswword.
[01:01] <usser> damien, ati is quirky
[01:01] <damien> usser, that command doesnt seem to work (resolution2)
[01:01] <damien> havent seen that one before...
[01:01] <dsofws> redvamp128, the accounts have their own home directories,
[01:01] <redvamp128> dsofws: that is the problem
[01:01] <sockets> madmax__ alright, i'll try that
[01:01] <damien> what version of fglrx is that in?
[01:01] <usser> damien, i dont how relevant it is, its from slackware 11 http://www.linuxstore.se/~jens/slackware-11.0/x11/aticonfig.txt
[01:02] <madmax__> sockets: i sent you a link too
[01:02] <dsofws> redvamp128, the 2nd account does have password. i did sign out, and now i'm signed into the 2nd account, and this is where i stand.
[01:02] <damien> okay
[01:02] <damien> thanks!  signing out!
[01:02] <redvamp128> dsofws:  try specify a password for the second account- should fix that issue
[01:02] <sockets> madmax__ when i do sudo jockey-gtk it loads up "hardware drivers" this is what i was using before the "broadcom b43 wireless driver", which just wouldn't connect..
[01:02] <NoVARaif> Might anyone here be able to lend a hand with resizing partitions after upgrading an Intrepid Ibis server install to a new drive?
[01:02] <dsofws> what do you mean by specific? i did set it up with a password. you have to type in a password to sign in with GDM.
[01:03] <madmax__> sockets: does you laptop have a wireless switch
[01:03] <dsofws> both accounts have diffferent passwords as well. and different home directories.
[01:03] <redvamp128> then go back under the first and try this fix for the .drmc -- should take back what is supposed to be its.Ubuntu .dmrc permission issue - a fix <http://www.ubuntuproductivity.com/journal/ubuntu/08/2008/fix-ubuntu-dmrc-permissions-error-on-login/>
[01:03] <sockets> madmax__ yeah, it isn't working though neither is Fn+F2 which i read somewhere might work

[01:04] <Townk> hi everyone, I just install Intrepid here and try to update my nvidia driver to the last version available on repository (180.11). It was smooth but now when I login into my account the screen goes black and nothing shows up until I change to a terminal (e.g. Ctrl+Alt+1) and then change back to graphical term. Anyone knows what this is?
[01:04] <redvamp128> dsofws:  the main one is the first one-- to set the user1 to take control of its folders
[01:04] <dsofws> where does gnome store the information for the "PLACES" menu? like path location and such?
[01:05] <OMGLOLPANTS> in the icon?

[01:28] <Midnight> Hello
[01:28] <joejc> hi
[01:28] <EnigmaCurry> I'm looking for a simple, zero configuration, webserver that just serves files from the current directory. Not for production use, just for when I need a throw-away webserver quickly. Anyone know of one?
[01:28] <usser> joejc, whats broken with your music?
[01:29] <joejc> the meta data
[01:29] <redvamp128> bling4mm:  try opening firefox with the firefox -profilemanger option create new user and see if something is up with the prior user-
[01:29] <Ahadiel> When using the Ubuntu liveCD to resize my /home (to take up 30gb of unallocated space), it spit out a resize error and told me to e2fsck the drive. The fsck shows 4.1% non-contiguous and the unallocated space no longer shows up in gparted (my /home is also still the same size). How would I go about fixing this?
[01:29] <redvamp128> bling4mm:  could be a corrupted profile
[01:29] <ghost_of_DNSsec> joejc, you can use the EasyTag software to alter your tags automatically or by hand
[01:29] <joejc> the file names are all wrong and theres no album art
[01:29] <bling4mm> My firefox's "save as" doesn't work... in fact none of the download of any kinds works (whether by left clicking a link or right clicking to save as). Does anybody have any solutions to this?
[01:29] <redvamp128> bling4mm:  read above
[01:30] <usser> EnigmaCurry, http://www.rejetto.com/hfs/
[01:30] <ghost_of_DNSsec> you can get EasyTag through synaptic package manager or with a sudo apt-get install EasyTag
[01:30] <TrentonH> Hello everybody!
[01:30] <bling4mm> sorry... there was a huge lag
[01:30] <EnigmaCurry> usser: Thanks, I'll check it out
[01:30] <TrentonH> Is their any antivirus/firewall support for Ubuntu?
[01:30] <theCzar> how do I change the mount point for an external volume?
[01:31] <ghost_of_DNSsec> Can anyone help me with my display problem on my user level account?
[01:31] <usser> !antivirus | TrentonH
[01:31] <_VIM_> TrentonH: yes but no need really.
[01:31] <redvamp128> bling4mm:  try a new profile for firefox Profile Manager - MozillaZine Knowledge Base <http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager>
[01:31] <usser> !firewall
[01:31] <madmax__> theCzar: edit /etc/fstab
[01:31] <TrentonH> I thought it was IP-Tables ^.^
[01:31] <NoVARaif> !gparted
[01:31] <TrentonH> I have Ubuntu 8.10 or whatever, is that Gnome edition or KDE?
[01:32] <redvamp128> bling4mm:  at the prompt type  ./firefox -profilemanager that will start up the profile manger and see if the problem persists-- could be a corrupted and or locked profile.
[01:32] <_VIM_> TrentonH: gnome
[01:32] <TrentonH> Ahh ha
[01:32] <bling4mm> k will try
[01:33] <_VIM_> Kubuntu=KDE + Ubuntu
[01:33] <kenalex> is there any advantage at all in using 64 bit over 32 bit linux
[01:33] <TrentonH> Alrighty, heres a tricky one. I need step by step details of how to delete the files off another harddrive thats on this PC and than expand this harddrive to use that one?
[01:33] <MikeShollen> I tried to install an nVidia driver for my 7900 card and my system won't boot into the GUI, it's giving me command prompt only.  How do I get back into the Gui?
[01:34] <ghost_of_DNSsec> TrentoH: Get the live cd for GPartEd. Reboot your computer with the live cd in the drive. Follow the graphical wizard they have, and just delete the old partition
[01:34] <_VIM_> !gparted | TrentonH read this
[01:34] <TrentonH> I'll put it in simpler terms, Harddrive 1: WinXP 320GB Hardrive2: Ubuntu 500GB I want to delete Harddrive 1 and use it together with Harddrive 2
[01:34] <theCzar> madmax__ ok, thanks.  how would I go about changing the mount point, I think I might be able to figure it out, but I'm not sure
[01:34] <TrentonH> Thats possible right?
[01:34] <redvamp128> MikeShollen:  try ctl-alt-backspace
[01:34] <MikeShollen> While I'm at command prompt?
[01:34] <redvamp128> yes
[01:35] <MikeShollen> doesn't do anything
[01:35] <redvamp128> MikeShollen:  should take you to the login screen
[01:35] <ghost_of_DNSsec> TrentonH: Yes, its possible. And GPartEd is the program that does it.
[01:35] <MikeShollen> says    michael@Alienware:~$
[01:35] <redvamp128> MikeShollen:  okay then try this command -- sudo nvidia-settings
[01:35] <TrentonH> Thanks, it is GParted on LiveCD right?
[01:35] <EnigmaCurry> Aha, I found a cool solution. Just type "python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8080" in the directory you want to serve files.
[01:35] <NoVARaif> I would really appreciate some help in determining if I did something wrong when migrating my Ibis server install to a new larger hard drive... anyone up to helping?  it would be greatly appreciated
[01:35] <ghost_of_DNSsec> you can get it on one. Or you could get it as an ubuntu package
[01:35] <TrentonH> Do I do the liveCD or the console version?
[01:35] <binarymutant> what's the difference between mlocate and slocate anyways?
[01:35] <MikeShollen> Error: the control display is undefined, please run 'nvidia-settings --help' for usage information
[01:36] <_VIM_> TrentonH: you need the Gparted Live CD
[01:36] <TrentonH> Alrighty then ^.^
[01:36] <redvamp128> MikeShollen:  then lets get you back on xorg
[01:36] <kansan> how do i get the current time zone my ubuntu machine is set up on?
[01:36] <ghost_of_DNSsec> Can anyone help me with my display problem?
[01:36] <TrentonH> I hope all of my games work on Ubuntu.... |:
[01:37] <ghost_of_DNSsec> ...
[01:37] <MikeShollen> Any chance I could talk to you in a priv channel redvamp so I can reduce all the other chat?
[01:37] <BlindCamel> Ubuntu 8.10 (intrepid) has problems with nvidia drivers i have tried everything i can think of
[01:37] <redvamp128> mike sure
[01:37] <GreedyB> Does anyone know how I can stop it from asking me for a password when I resume?
[01:37] <kenalex> does anyone here run Ubuntu 64 bit
[01:38] <GreedyB> ooops wrong button
[01:39] <jero> i installed the latests 9.1 ati drivers and now am not getting any acceleration (glxgears etc dont work). what is the command to setup the whole graphics properly after installing an ati driver?
[01:39] <NoVARaif> I am using the 8.10 LiveCD and GParted, and I am stuck trying to reconcile the partition information GParted is providing about the new partitions
[01:40] <Titan8990> jero: I'm not sure if it is different in Ubuntu but when the drivers are aquired from ATI the command is: aticonfig --initial
[01:40] <ari_stress> morning all :)
[01:40] <jero> titan oh yes, i think this was it, let me try
[01:40] <Titan8990> jero: then you will need to copy xorg.conf.new in root's homedir to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:40] <Titan8990> jero: backup your current xorg first
[01:40] <brunner> My Add/Remove Programs dialog shows no programs at all, but apt seems to work fine from the command line.  What can I do to fix this?
[01:41] <TrentonH> My Pidgin client just crashed :P
[01:41] <yeoj__> I'm getting 2,200 fps in glxgears with an nvidia geforce 7600gt.  What should I be getting?  Quake 3 feels much slower then it did on my windows partition...
[01:41] <TrentonH> And they say Linux is stable.......
[01:41] <brunner> TrentonH: Pidgin != Linux
[01:41] <TrentonH> Yeoj_ Maybe, it's your imaginiation....
[01:42] <TrentonH> brunner, Pidgin is Linux.
[01:42]  * NoVARaif begins to think he's talking to himself?
[01:42] <ghost_of_DNSsec> no, its really not
[01:42] <linxeh> TrentonH: err, no
[01:42] <madmax__> isnt pidgin cross platform
[01:42] <TrentonH> Well it came on my Linux cd...
[01:42] <linxeh> madmax__: yes, using GTK
[01:42] <brunner> madmax__: yes
[01:42] <brunner> TrentonH: so did Firefox, probably
[01:42] <garu> can someone tell me how do I configure a ubuntu machine as a client to connect to a kerberos server?
[01:42] <linxeh> TrentonH: it runs on macosx, windows, linux, etc etc
[01:43] <TrentonH> Yes....... it came /w Firefox but I already knew that.
[01:43] <MaT-dg> My system slows down randomly -> high cpu load caused by somehing..
[01:43] <madmax__> garu: google kerberos client ubuntu
[01:43] <brunner> TrentonH: well Firefox isn't Linux, either.
[01:43] <TrentonH> MaT-dg Did you open your Linux Process Manager or whatever it is called and view what is doing what?
[01:44] <yeoj__> TrentonH, maybe, but showfps shows that its actually quantifiable.  Thanks for your sarcastic help though.
[01:44] <TrentonH> brunner, But FireFox is KEWLL regardless if it's Linux or not....
[01:44] <TrentonH> yeoj_, Anytime :D Just saying ya know maybe it's all in your head....
[01:44] <letalis> im trying to get my console terminals to use another default font and i made changes to /etc/default/console-setup and it looked like at initial startup it changed, but after everything loaded it reverted back to the original ubuntu font. any ideas what would cause this to happen?
[01:44] <brunner> TrentonH: I use it, but it'd be "KEWLL"er if it didn't take up so much RAM
[01:45] <linxeh> TrentonH: I fear there is far more in yeoj__'s head than yours :o
[01:45] <TrentonH> brunner, get more ram ^.^
[01:45] <ghost_of_DNSsec> Also if it didn't have legacy code dating back to before Netscape Navigator
[01:45] <linxeh> ghost_of_DNSsec: you mean like IE ?
[01:45] <jero> anyone using ubuntu 9.04 already?
[01:46] <linuxman410> jero i am using 9.04
[01:46] <jero> linuxman - any new features worth noting?
[01:46] <ghost_of_DNSsec> linexh: lol, much like that. But because you can see inside the code,
[01:46] <Pici> !jaunty
[01:46] <ghost_of_DNSsec> you notice the horrible legacy problems
[01:47] <linxeh> ghost_of_DNSsec: if you pay enough you can see inside the IE code too :-)
[01:47] <iamelite> What is an extremely small window manager i can use for a resource costly application?
[01:47] <ghost_of_DNSsec> lol, that'd be nice, but I don't have the money
[01:47] <linuxman410> jero all of my stuff that would not run on 8.10 runs on 9.04
[01:47] <linxeh> :)
[01:47] <Harigh> I'm new to ubuntu and the website told me to come here for general help is anyone willing to help me?
[01:47] <linxeh> Harigh: if you tell us what the problem is yes :p
[01:47] <TrentonH> Erm, I have a slight problem..... just a small one nothing to big..
[01:48] <letalis> Harigh: whats the problem?
[01:48] <jero> linuxman nice, maybe i ll just screw this attempt with the ati driver on 8.10 and go straight for 9.04
[01:48] <TrentonH> I have like 50+ connections open on my PC.......
[01:48] <jero> cant get the acceleration to work anyway
[01:48] <Harigh> ok well you see my distro will boot all the way to the desktop and then stop the system icon doesnt show up and i cant do anything on it? does anyone know what i can do to fix it
[01:48] <ghost_of_DNSsec> jero: I'd be careful going to 9.04
[01:48] <ghost_of_DNSsec> it hasn't been released for a reason
[01:48] <jero> guess that will teach me to not mess with any ati drivers unless there is a package on synaptic
[01:49] <jero> i know i could get it to run, but it will be again a google orgy
[01:49] <tonsofpcs> anyone know of some X software that can record and playback keystrokes and mouse motions/presses either with or without timing [and repeat with or without delay] ?
[01:49] <kansan> how do i get the current time zone my ubuntu machine is set up on?how do i remove user foo?
[01:49] <kansan> how do i remove user foo?
[01:49] <linuxman410> jero it already had my ati driver i am using radeon 9200se
[01:49] <iamelite> I installed blackbox window manager into my computer, and i see half a desktop when i open it, like its working with 2 monitors, but i only have one. is there a configuration for this?
[01:49] <jero> linux 8.10 had it too, i just wanted the newest
[01:49] <MaT-dg> TrentonH: yes, it seems that pulseaudio and java are using the most cpu load
[01:49] <jero> i ve done it before but my memory is short. and i dont want to read all over again
[01:49] <linuxman410> jero my 3d effects work great
[01:50] <Lucifer_Cat> When i remote into my box the first time, it works fine. when i logout from the menu, all the icons and menu disappear and only the wallpaper remains. Even if i disconnect and connect again, i get the same thing. i need to restart to get it going again. What am i doing wrong?
[01:50] <TrentonH> MaT-dg is the Java jqs named? I know it is on WinXP
[01:50] <letalis> Harigh: system icon?
[01:50] <jero> linuxman they do, except i found that ubuntu 8.10 has my gfx card fan spinning constantly when the 3d acceleration is enabled.
[01:50] <jero> linuxman without, my laptop is absolutely silent
[01:50] <Harigh> the icon that says system and allows me to easily access the stuff connected to my computer i know its there because i ran it in vmware
[01:51] <TrentonH> jero: My PC sounds like an Apache helicopter because of the hardware I have in it. LOL
[01:51] <MaT-dg> TrentonH: what do u mean by that?
[01:51] <letalis> ahh the one that lets you access the filesystems
[01:51] <linuxman410> jero i have desktop and you can not even hear fan
[01:51] <Harigh> yes that one
[01:51] <jero> trenton - easily fixed. drill a hole in the wall and get usb cables through it, and work on the other side of the wall
[01:51] <TrentonH> MaT-dg: What is the name of the Java program thats running in process?
[01:52] <letalis> are you using kde or gnome Harigh?
[01:52] <Harigh> kde
[01:52] <the_lord> hello
[01:52] <Harigh> i assume that anyway
[01:52] <ghost_of_DNSsec> Is there anyone who can help me with my display issues?
[01:52] <Harigh> i just picked run without changes from the main menu
[01:52] <aazizorg> I'm repeatedly getting the error "[ ######] Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0" when i try to boot ubuntu live cd. I know it works on other PCs, I burnt it slow, and other linux live cd's don't work.
[01:53] <TrentonH> jero: It's not an issue to me, it was expected when I built gaming machine. I have an Air Cooled system and 3 vid cards and they constantly run and noisy.
[01:53] <letalis> does the lower left icon of the desktop have a K in a gear on it?
[01:53] <ghost_of_DNSsec> TrentonH, what games are you planning to run?
[01:53] <ghost_of_DNSsec> And have you made sure their developers support Linux?
[01:53] <ghost_of_DNSsec> Because there are many things Linux is excellent for, but so far the gaming community's been a little behind other sectors if I remember correctly
[01:54] <aitd> aazizorg: isn't fd0 the floppy?
[01:54] <linuxman410> jero i used old hardware a p4 1.8 and a gig of ram and ati radeon 9200se
[01:54] <letalis> run dmesg and pastebin it and post the link here
[01:54] <the6step> how can I download Adobe Flash for ubuntu gutsy?
[01:54] <TrentonH> ghost_of_DNSsec I have 4 hd's 2 are saved for my Windows games, I got them in Raid 0 and Crysis, Stalker, WoW,
[01:54] <letalis> !pastebin
[01:54] <aazizorg> aitd, i've been told this in #archlinux, im going to try to disable floppy (i dont have one anyways)
[01:54] <ghost_of_DNSsec> TrentonH: Oh, okay, you sound like you've got it
[01:54] <letalis> youll need to run dmesg in a terminal
[01:54] <Harigh> no the icon doesnt have the konqueror icon in it
[01:55] <MaT-dg> TrentonH: Azureus
[01:55] <letalis> was the desktop browns beiges and the like when you initially started it up?
[01:55] <TrentonH> ghost_of_DNSsec: I play WoW mostly, so it doesn't bother me. I just know i'm going to lagg mad becuase Linux doesn't support dialup.
[01:55] <Harigh> yes it was
[01:56] <letalis> okay youre running ubuntu with gnome as the desktop
[01:56] <letalis> :)
[01:56] <Harigh> do i need to run in it a different mode?
[01:56] <the_lord> I'm having problems with my wireless card
[01:56] <Harigh> oh ok
[01:56] <ghost_of_DNSsec> TrentonH: ah
[01:56] <the_lord> I have 8.10 and lspci says the card is Intersil Corporation Prism 2.5 Wavelan chipset
[01:56] <TrentonH> ghost_of_DNSsec: Do you know if their is any 56k support for Ubuntu?
[01:56] <letalis> in gnome the main menu up top has a item called places that will allow you to access all of the filesystems that your system knows about.
[01:57] <aazizorg> aitd, yeah that was it. had to disable floppy in bios. weird though
[01:57] <Harigh> ya but i cant open the applications menu the places menu or the system menu at the top
[01:57] <aitd> aazizorg: That was going to be my next suggestion.
[01:57] <Harigh> its like the only thing that works is the mouse
[01:57] <letalis> if you need to get on a windows share the network option will get you there.
[01:57] <PowhatanBob> I'm getting 503 5.5.1 "Authentication not enabled" when my rails app tries to send an email, what could be causing that?

[02:03] <BattleStarJesus> I am trying to configure my computer so that I can log into it, using a GUI interface,  from a remote location.  I have come here for tutorial advice.  Suggestions?
[02:04] <herrkin> hola, hello.
[02:04] <yo-chen> heyho herrkin

[02:04] <damien> howdy
[02:04] <damien> usser, you still around
[02:04] <damien> ?
[02:04] <danbhfive> TrentonH: slow down, read more slowly.  If you are using ubuntu, then you don't need to worry about KDE nor KNetworkmanager
[02:04] <damien> |AR|, you around?
[02:04] <damien> still having trouble :(
[02:05] <herrkin> can anyone help me configure my intel card with compiz?
[02:05] <herrkin> I am on hardy
[02:05] <lakotajames> Could someone help me write a script?
[02:05] <jrib> lakotajames: best to just ask the channel your question.  If someone knows the answer, they will try to help you
[02:05] <damien> having trouble configuring fglrx, ubuntu 8.10 to run on a samsung 30" 2560x1600
[02:05] <|AR|> damien: yup
[02:05] <Svenstaro> lakotajames, #bash is what you want probably.
[02:05] <yo-chen> lakotjames: can try
[02:05] <lakotajames> Svenstaro: thanks.
[02:06] <Svenstaro> lakotajames, read the links in #bash motd, theyre extraordinarily helpful
[02:06] <herrkin> I just dont know what to do, I was googling it and they say it is supported by defoult but it doesnt work
[02:06] <Titan8990> damien: what problems are you having?
[02:06] <eternal> I am running on a usb drive 'live session' is there a way to expand the persistent storage file?
[02:07] <damien> Titan8990, I can't seem to get the maximum resolution displayed
[02:07] <damien> things were working okay on my old 20"
[02:07] <yo-chen> herrkin, which card, what problem?
[02:07] <Titan8990> damien: did you install your ati drivers via jockey-gtk or manually from the ati website?
[02:07] <herrkin> well intel x3100, compiz doesnt  work
[02:08] <damien> Titan8990, both, current is latest from ati
[02:08] <herrkin> I dont know what to do. I am new to linux
[02:08] <yo-chen> what did you try?
[02:09] <herrkin> I have ati on mi pc and it worked when I used envy
[02:09] <herrkin> but in this case I dont know what to do
[02:09] <Titan8990> damien: make a backup of your xorg.conf and manually add the resolution you want. You can change an existing resolution, or you can add another
[02:09] <damien> Titan8990, how do I add the resolution?
[02:09] <Titan8990> damien: just make sure you back up the orginal
[02:09] <blue_> windows rules

[02:09] <damien> Titan8990, so many options!
[02:10] <Titan8990> damien: when you look at the file: /etc/X11/xorg.conf     you should see the resolutions listed, most likely it will be the screen section
[02:10] <Pici> !x
[02:10] <bamhm182> you here nickrud?
[02:10] <damien> Pici, thanks :)
[02:10] <damien> Titan8990, thanks I'll try that
[02:10] <Prometheus1981> Hello everybody
[02:11] <nickrud> bamhm182, around, but not really here yet
[02:11] <lakotajames> #bash seems pretty dead.
[02:11] <bamhm182> alright, I didn't need help, just wanted to let you know that I got everything sorted
[02:11] <lakotajames>  I need to make a script that will write the names of all the avi files in a directory to a text document like this: stream = http://<IP_ADDRESS>/Video/Lakota/(directoyname)/(video.avi)
[02:11] <bamhm182> in case you didn't get the PM
[02:11] <nickrud> bamhm182, yeah, I caught your pm, good to hear
[02:11] <bamhm182> alright, cool
[02:11] <dbansal> hello everyone! I am using ubuntu 8.10 and I have problems with open office. The menus do not display correctly. Does anyone else know how to solve this issue?
[02:12] <Prometheus1981> Has anyone tried to install ubuntu in a USB flash drive, and got it to boot?
[02:12] <madmax__> Prometheus1981: yes
[02:12] <eternal> Prometheus1981, yes I am on one now
[02:12] <Mean_Admin> eh! what's the   #    coloumn in crontab?!
[02:12] <kattollikisd> hi everybody... I need help, I was trying to find a good letter to make a Power Point .ppt but I can't find it... I was trying to find this letter http://www.colegioeuropamalaga.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/letra-gotica-inglesa.gif can someone give me a hand?
[02:13] <Prometheus1981> I have installed it several times and when I try to boot, it keeps telling me that it's corrupt
[02:13] <The_Spazzz> Good Afternoon, I was wondering if someone could help me with a very annoying glitch with Compiz in 8.10.  For some reason when I click on a window I can move it but it will not gain focus unless I ALT-TAB into it.  I can work around this by setting windows to focus by moving my mouse over them but this just adds another aggivation and I'd like it to keep the normal behavior.
[02:13] <jrib> Mean_Admin: read 'man 5 crontab'.  The # just comments the first line so it gives you column headings and cron ignores that line
[02:13] <subliminal> anyone notice jaunty hardware drivers manager is now accepting nvidia...not going to trash my system is it ?
[02:13] <Mean_Admin> jrib: i'm so stupid! you're right
[02:14] <bamhm182> what's the cube effect called? I want to look into getting that installed
[02:14] <The_Spazzz> I've also searched GOOGLE without much luck.
[02:14] <bamhm182> would that just be the Ubuntu cube
[02:14] <jrib> !jaunty | subliminal
[02:14] <Titan8990> subliminal: there is a seperate irc for the unstable version of Ubuntu
[02:14] <subliminal> thanks ubottu
[02:14] <lstarnes> bamhm182: it's a plugin for compiz-fusion
[02:14] <bamhm182> thanks lstarnes
[02:15] <Titan8990> subliminal: ubottu is bot (most of the time), thank jrib
[02:15] <dbansal> hello! does anyone know how to solve open office problems? My menu is not displaying the text correctly. Everything else works fine
[02:15] <subliminal> thanks jrgp  :P
[02:15] <bamhm182> I remembered that it was a plugin, but I couldn't remember compiz-fusion
[02:15] <iistii> ????
[02:15] <subliminal> err jrib ..
[02:15] <Prometheus1981> Does anyone know why my usb boot won't work?
[02:15] <linux_guy> Prometheus1981, how did you create it?
[02:16] <linux_guy> Prometheus1981, i just got done with this
[02:16] <yo-chen> herrkin, what happens, if you type compiz --replace &  in a shell?
[02:16] <herrkin> I havent tryed
[02:16] <TrentonH> I am having problems.... I typed in a command wvdialconf and it said no modems detected and go to go this website http://open.nit.ca/wiki/?WvDial and the website doesn't work!
[02:16] <madmax__> Prometheus1981: try writing zeros to the whole drive then using the make usb startup disk option in ubuntu
[02:16] <herrkin> I'll check
[02:16] <Prometheus1981> Yes, I used ubuntu 8.10 live cd
[02:17] <linux_guy> i found the usb startup thing in 8.10 to suck.  i used unetbootin
[02:17] <Mean_Admin> 0 4 * * 1,3,5 /home/pompei/backupscript
[02:17] <Prometheus1981> I have tried several times and it says that it was complete succesfully, but when I reboot it says that it's bad
[02:17] <Mean_Admin> does that look okay as a crontab?
[02:18] <linux_guy> Prometheus1981, what is the errror?
[02:18] <Prometheus1981> Will try
[02:18] <eternal> Prometheus1981, on the same drive?
[02:18] <madmax__> Prometheus1981: what size stick
[02:18] <jrib> Mean_Admin: sure
[02:18] <herrkin> yo-chen, it looked for xgl and then said not present
[02:18] <letalis> does anyone have any idea why /etc/default/console-setup wont hold its settings after ubuntu finishes booting? when the kernel spewed its usual memory crap at the beginning it changed to what i set it to but then the consoles reverted back to the ubuntu default. any idea what would cause this?
[02:18] <Mean_Admin> jrib: all right thanks
[02:18] <eternal> Prometheus1981, some sticks just won't boot, I had 2 of 3 of mine boot, 1 just won't
[02:18] <Prometheus1981> Oh ok
[02:18] <linux_guy> oh my....
[02:18] <marine> how do i get an exe file to open so that i can burn an iso out of it
[02:19] <jrib> letalis: did you check if 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup' has the same behavior?
[02:19] <eternal> Prometheus1981, is it a newer stick your trying with?
[02:19] <madmax__> Prometheus1981: ive noticed when using a 1gb stick that if you save files to the stick and fill it completely things start having errors
[02:19] <yo-chen> herrkin, try sudo apt-get install xserver-xgl
[02:19] <Prometheus1981> Sort of
[02:19] <letalis> jrib: let me try it out
[02:19] <herrkin> yo-chen, ok
[02:19] <Prometheus1981> I got it at a seminar 6mo ago
[02:19] <hacker_kid> i have edited my .profile to add a directory to my $PATH, how can i reload the .profile without rebooting?
[02:19] <eternal> Prometheus1981, you might try reformating it - that brought one of mine around.
[02:20] <Prometheus1981> Ok, thanks
[02:20] <linux_guy> format and unetbootin, i'm telling you
[02:20] <jrib> hacker_kid: source ~/.profile
[02:20] <eternal> good luck
[02:20] <[1]Jocke> I'm trying to learn some Linux. I've installed bzr to download an application coded in python. How do I compile it from the console?
[02:20] <linux_guy> i spent several hours on this a few days ago
[02:20] <jspiros> I'm thinking about setting up Ubuntu as dual boot on my currently Mac OS X-only MacBook
[02:20] <jrib> [1]Jocke: you don't compile python
[02:20] <hacker_kid> jrib, ty
[02:20] <Titan8990> [1]Jocke: python is not compiled
[02:20] <jrib> [1]Jocke: you should join #python
[02:20] <GeffIsLegend> hey guys, is there a way i can save settings on ubuntu, like every time i get on it, i have to reload flash player and things like that, is there a way iwont have to do that every time i log on?
[02:21] <jspiros> Does anyone know of a VM solution taht would let me boot my Mac OS X installation from within Ubuntu, on my MacBook?
[02:21] <Titan8990> [1]Jocke: it is it interpretted and should just run
[02:21] <marine> how do i get an exe file to open so that i can burn an iso out of it
[02:21] <madmax__> GeffIsLegend: are you using a live cd
[02:21] <eternal> linux_guy, do you know how to expand the persistant storage file?
[02:21] <yo-chen> herrkin, i found a nice forum thread, maybe you want to check it
[02:21] <GeffIsLegend> yeah a live cd i burnt myself
[02:21] <yo-chen> herrkin, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=127090
[02:21] <herrkin> yo-chen, thanks, let me see
[02:21] <linux_guy> yeah, well for me, unetbootin has the option of 'how much' space you'd like to allow
[02:22] <linux_guy> it was very easy
[02:22] <madmax__> GeffIsLegend: short answer no...make a live usb stick with a persistant file and it will save...your cd is read only
[02:22] <TrentonH> Can somebody tell me how to install scanmodem?
[02:22] <jrib> !dialup > TrentonH
[02:22] <GeffIsLegend> well i want to make Ubuntu the main OS of my computer but im having issues with that if youre intrested in helping me
[02:22] <marine>  how do i get an exe file to open so that i can burn an iso out of it
[02:23] <jrib> marine: 1) your question doesn't really make sense  and 2) please don't repeat so quickly
[02:23] <Achluon> GeffIsLegend: Perhaps you should start with what the problems are.
[02:23] <linux_guy> exe?
[02:23] <Titan8990> marine: you can use WINE but only certain apps are supported
[02:23] <eternal> linux_guy, I installed mine,  but I realized the amount I allowed was a bit small
[02:23] <nickrud> marine, an exe is a window executable file; it's not something you 'unpack'
[02:23] <Achluon> We don't really need an introduction.
[02:23] <Titan8990> !wine | marine
[02:23] <linux_guy> eternal, what did you use to create yours
[02:23] <madmax__> GeffIsLegend: do you have a flash drive
[02:23] <linux_guy> ?
[02:23] <eternal> marine, if it's a self-extracting archive, you might try 7zip
[02:24] <GeffIsLegend> well when i go to "install" from the cd i get to step 4 of 7 and partition part, and it wont let me select any partitions to use
[02:24] <punzada> is kde4.2 in the ibex repos or should I install from the same repo as the beta build?
[02:24] <marine> nickrud, so how do i get it to open
[02:24] <GeffIsLegend> and no i dont have a flash drive :[
[02:24] <nickrud> marine, I totally missed the idea that it might be a self extracting archive; eternal has a good idea
[02:24] <linux_guy> has anyone used DVD2HDD?
[02:24] <letalis> jrib: thanks man i think that got it
[02:24] <marine> eternal, is that in the repoz
[02:25] <eternal> Linux_guy I am looking I believe it's cd2usb  it's the windows  util to do it.
[02:25] <eternal> marine: I believe so.
[02:25] <marine> eternal, i tried to use archive manager and it didn't work
[02:25] <GeffIsLegend> well when i go to "install" from the cd i get to step 4 of 7 and partition part, and it wont let me select any partitions to use-should i create a partition table in the gparted?
[02:25] <Titan8990> marine: what is it exactly?
[02:25] <madmax__> GeffIsLegend: what is currently installed on your hard drive
[02:25] <GeffIsLegend> windows vista
[02:26] <linux_guy> i got 'could not launch menu item' -- failed to execute child process /usr/bin/DVD2HDD - no such file or directory...???
[02:26] <marine> Titan8990, it's a dos/windows bootdisk
[02:26] <Titan8990> GeffIsLegend: there is nothing wrong with that option but it is recommended that you backup your system prior to messing with partitions
[02:26] <The_Spazzz> Does anyone have any idea why I can't click on a window and have it focus when Compiz is enabled?
[02:26] <linux_guy> i went into terminal, and typed DVD2HDD and got errors also
[02:26] <marine> ulitmate boot cd trying to fixmr
[02:26] <linux_guy> how can i start this program?
[02:26] <linux_guy> how can i see if this installed correctly?
[02:27] <dobblego> should I expect difficulty in setting up 3 monitors with two nvidia graphics cards?
[02:27] <tritium> linux_guy: that's not in the repositories.  You must have installed some 3rd party software.
[02:27] <linux_guy> i got if from sourceforge or softpedia
[02:27] <madmax__> boot into vista goto control panel>computer managment>disk managment and right click your c drive select shrink volume ...free up some space for ubuntu...also make sure that you shutdown not hibernate the resume image will cause issues

[02:28] <GeffIsLegend> sorry about that, pigin crashed
[02:28] <marine> Titan8990, where did you find it
[02:28] <linux_guy> how can i check to see if this program installed correctly?
[02:28] <Titan8990> marine: http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/download.html
[02:28] <marine> Titan8990, ecause i was there an there isn't a mirror for an iso just an exe

[02:29] <madmax__> linux_guy:  google error
[02:29] <linux_guy> madmax__, been there, done that
[02:29] <marine> Titan8990, i will use the iso format then burn to disk
[02:30] <GeffIsLegend> oh okay, thanks madmax, then after that what should i do? just load back into ubuntu?
[02:30] <Titan8990> lanoxx: are you wanting it to mount on boot?
[02:30] <Titan8990> marine: good luck
[02:30] <madmax__> lanoxx: install ntfs-3g
[02:30] <TrentonH> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto/ScanModem
[02:30] <madmax__> linux_guy: what error
[02:30] <jrib> locate kif
[02:30] <TrentonH> That link doesn't work...
[02:30] <marine> Titan8990, is that suppose to mean good luck or watch out
[02:30] <linux_guy> i got 'could not launch menu item' -- failed to execute child process /usr/bin/DVD2HDD - no such file or directory...???
[02:30] <tritium> marine: that's installed by default
[02:30] <madmax__> GeffIsLegend: yes
[02:31] <GeffIsLegend> okay cool, thanks ill go try it, ill be back
[02:31] <lanoxx> Titan8990, mount it, i have installed ntfs-3g already and i can mount the partition, but its always mounted with root access rights and if i right click and choose share, then i get a message saying that i dont own the folder
[02:31] <marine> tritium, where at
[02:31] <eross> i have the mx-3200 logitech wireless keyboard and mouse. is there a reason why in openarena, W (forward) + A (left) + spacebar doesn't work? It works with the right strafe key
[02:31] <eross> spacebar = jump
[02:31] <tritium> marine: what do you mean "where at"?  It's one of the packages that is installed by default.
[02:32] <TrentonH> I type ./ScanModem and it says Continuing as this update is only 2 weeks old, but the current Update is always at: http://somewebsite than it syas grep: 04:00.0: No such file or directory
[02:32] <linux_guy> madmax__, ever seen it?
[02:32] <marine> tritium, what package are you referring to 7zip or something else???
[02:32] <Mean_Admin> if I just created a new user and I want ssh to allow new user to use private keys and such, I have to make a .ssh folder in the new user's home folder ?
[02:33] <tritium> marine: ntfs-3g
[02:33] <tritium> marine: sorry, wrong nick.  Was intended for madmax__.
[02:33] <madmax__> eross: try a wired kbd see if its the keyboard or OA
[02:33] <marine> tritium, that must e someone else not me
[02:34] <tritium> marine: correct.  See above.
[02:34] <madmax__> linux_guy: try doin it in terminal you'll get a lil more info
[02:34] <madmax__> also try sudo
[02:34] <eross> it's the keyboard madmax, my older one i replaced was working ok in that respect
[02:34] <marine> tritium, ok the iso is finshed
[02:34] <Titan8990> lanoxx: you don't need ntfs-3g in ubuntu, or really any recent kernel.   try:     chown -R USER:GROUP /mount/point
[02:34] <[1]Jocke> I can't figure it out. I downloaded the source for gnome-specimen, coded in python. How do i run it? In the root folder there is Makefile.am and autogen.sh.

[02:36] <dmotd> hello, i'm about to edit my partition table, which will have the effect of changing the device name on my ubuntu partition.. what files will need to be fixed so ubuntu can boot again?

[02:38] <bamhm182> It says For Kubuntu 8.04 you should use the installer KMenu -> System -> Desktop Effects. on the website, this is just for Kubuntu, not Ubuntu, correct?
[02:39] <The_Spazzz> Does anyone have any idea why I can't click on a window and have it focus when Compiz is enabled?
[02:39] <joljam> my ubuntu intrepid slows down and processor starts becoming when i stream videos from you tube... utlimately freezing u the the whole comp.

[02:44] <billythegoat101> how do you restart things through the terminal?
[02:44] <linux_guy> is it normal for synaptic to take its sweet time to download and install various packages?
[02:44] <tabidachi_> rempresent, #top
[02:44] <grindking> brez`: you forward the port to the local ip on your router's settings

[02:48] <Tyrath> yeah, i've only got one layer
[02:48] <Tyrath> should i make another?

[02:50] <rempresent> carpii_: guess i will erase those from my list
[02:50] <billythegoat101> ?how do you make conky start on startup
[02:50] <Titan8990> linux_guy: you can use    echo 'STUFF I AM ADDING HERE' >> /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:50] <jrib> !startup | billythegoat101
[02:50] <Titan8990> linux_guy: or open in your favorite text editor
[02:50] <billythegoat101> thanks

[02:51] <pyromaniaman> jrib, sorry
[02:51] <linux_guy> jrib, im trying to run this DVD2HDD program.  which has gbx errors because i need to get 'gambas'
[02:51] <devz0r> funny thing is happening
[02:51] <Tyrath> pyromaniaman: that worked. thanks. now i'm wondering what A4 size is
[02:51] <linux_guy> i installed gambas2 from the repos andd it still wont start
[02:51] <Tyrath> pyromaniaman: like in pixels that is
[02:51] <jrib> linux_guy: what's the program for?  There isn't a decent alternative in the repositories?
[02:51] <tritium> linux_guy: gambas is in the repositories.  You likely already have the right repo line in /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:51] <pyromaniaman> Tyrath, you can specify that in new image size
[02:52] <exodus_ms> is there a command I can use in ubuntu similar to this    rpm -qi --whatprovides /usr/bin/updatedb
[02:52] <linux_guy> in my synaptic i only have gambas2
[02:52] <jrib> exodus_ms: dpkg -S  is my guess
[02:52] <Tyrath> pyromaniaman: it won't let me
[02:52] <brEz-> linux_guy: sudo gedit /etc/apt/source.list
[02:52] <brEz-> sources* rather/

[02:54] <jrib> linux_guy: you realize there are tons of dvd rippers in the repositories that will just work after you install them in synaptic?
[02:54] <pyromaniaman> Titan8990, isn't that the interpreter? he could try doing sh file
[02:54] <Titan8990> linux_guy: does this command return anything:      which gbx

[02:55] <Titan8990> linux_guy: search the repositories for xgb, its going to be a language interpretter of some kind
[02:55] <exodus_ms> jrib: I guess I'm trying to find out what package owns the file, so     dpkg -S  /usr/bin/updatedb     doesn;t produce any results or does it take a while?
[02:55] <dirthead> Last time I installed ubuntu was 2006. I just installed it today on a co-workers laptop. It was easier to install than Windows. Wireless setup was simple. Are there articles somewhere about the latest Ubuntu? Its amazing. Oh wait, I found one. I'm going to start installing it on everybody's computer.
[02:55] <linux_guy> jrib, the abbreviation is PITA lol
[02:55] <jrib> linux_guy: have you tried anything in the repositories?
[02:55] <imaginativeone> which folder is apache serving my local web files from?
[02:56] <BlindCamel> any one here use lostIrc ?
[02:56] <nathan1> Pardon, does anyone know where I could look to disable middle click emulation?
[02:56] <linux_guy> jrib, i've been reading about ARccOS for most of the day
[02:56] <tritium> dirthead: :)
[02:56] <Titan8990> TrentonH: what happens if you do:    which grep
[02:56] <Kelen> there is no connection while install nvidia driver when it's download nvidia kernel from nvidia's ftp..
[02:56] <TrentonH> What?
[02:56] <jrib> imaginativeone: /var/www/ is default
[02:56] <linux_guy> i have tried several apps in my windows virtual machine
[02:56] <tritium> Kelen: use the ubuntu-packaged drivers
[02:56] <Tyrath> pyromaniaman: it seems to just be blowing it up to huge proportions
[02:56] <TrentonH> Titan8900: Please explain
[02:56] <pyromaniaman> Tyrath, that's A4.
[02:56] <Titan8990> TrentonH: open up the terminal and type that command in:        which grep
[02:57] <pyromaniaman> Tyrath, at printing size, anyway
[02:57] <Kelen> tritium: but i wanna try newest version of nvidia driver.
[02:57] <tritium> Kelen: 180 is in the repos
[02:57] <TrentonH> Titan8900: Gives me /bin/grep
[02:57] <jrib> nathan1: there's  a bug on launchpad about it (because of new X).  If you can't find it i'll look
[02:57] <linux_guy> Titan8990, i can't find xgb in synaptic
[02:57] <Tyrath> pyromaniaman: could i try to change print size to get it to go A4?
[02:57] <linux_guy> Titan8990, could it be in apt-get?
[02:57] <corey_> whats the best flash player adobe flash player, swfdec, or gnash swf player
[02:57] <BlindCamel> ubuntu 8.10 has issues with some nvidia drivers  i have a Gforce 8400 GS and none of the drivers will load they all say active but not in use
[02:57] <Titan8990> linux_guy: apt-get and synaptic is the same thing
[02:57] <kavitha> how to disconnect and reconnect socket?
[02:58] <linux_guy> Titan8990, ok thanks.  now what?
[02:58] <tritium> BlindCamel: have you tried nvidia-glx-180?
[02:58] <Kelen> tritium: just only version 169.12 in there..
[02:58] <Titan8990> TrentonH: what is the program that you are trying to use?
[02:58] <jrib> corey_: depends on your meaning of "best".  adobe's is probably the most compatible, but certanly not the most Free
[02:58] <nathan1> jrib: I'll poke around some. 8.10 is the first and only ubuntu I've used, hopefully launchpad helps me figure out what I'm after
[02:58] <BlindCamel> yes thats the ones i have now

[03:04] <TrentonH> I can't get this blasted thing to work!!
[03:04] <pepperjack> jarlen: you want to turn it off?
[03:04] <pyromaniaman> jpablo, it does routine checks and also when your computer isn't properly turned off
[03:04] <newb12345> is there a way that i can log all my tcp packets back & forth w/ a particular server, say www.google.com ?
[03:04] <ben44b> is there someone that can help me with a booting up problem?
[03:04] <pepperjack> newb12345: wireshark comes to mind
[03:05] <exodus_ms> !details > ben44b
[03:05] <rempresent> how can you check to see if samba is running? also, how can you make it run automatically on boot?
[03:05] <pepperjack> rempresent: ps -A to see all running processors
[03:05] <pyromaniaman> rem1500, pstree | grep samba
[03:05] <pyromaniaman> oops
[03:05] <ben44b> exodus...when I first turn on my comp. it says no hard drive found...press f1 to repeat boot sequence
[03:05] <pepperjack> rempresent: ors es
[03:05] <pyromaniaman> rempresent, , pstree | grep samba
[03:05] <Kelen> tritium: could not find nvidia-glx-180 package.. is it needs some source before that?
[03:06] <pyromaniaman> Kelen, have you enabled the right repositories?
[03:06] <madmax__> newb12345: wireshark
[03:06] <pepperjack> rempresent: on a default ubuntu install it is though started automatically
[03:06] <pyromaniaman> Kelen, press alt + F2 and type gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:06] <Tyrath> pyromaniaman: ok i've just realised it doesn't seem to matter what size i make the canvas it still prints at the same size
[03:06] <jpablo> pyromaniaman: I checked the system with fsck /dev/sda after I reboot the systema and The problem dissapear
[03:06] <exodus_ms> ben44b: ide or sata?
[03:06] <rempresent> i am guessing that the session "smbd" is samba
[03:06] <pepperjack> rempresent: yes
[03:07] <Titan8990> ben44b: check the BIOS to see if it detects the drive, if not, open the case and make sure it is still spinning
[03:07] <Tyrath> pyromaniaman: anyway around this?
[03:07] <pyromaniaman> jpablo, it does that a lot
[03:07] <jpablo> pyromaniaman: But I dont understand why
[03:07] <ben44b> exodus...how do i find that out?
[03:07] <rempresent> great, thanks
[03:07] <pyromaniaman> Tyrath, probably the printer
[03:07] <Titan8990> ben44b: and all the connections are correct
[03:07] <pyromaniaman> jpablo, bad hard drive?
[03:07] <club-inntegrapv> #xubuntu
[03:07] <Titan8990> ben44b: you can verify whether it is sata or pata by looking at it, or by checking your BIOS
[03:07] <Tyrath> pyromaniaman: but the borders seem to be different for word docs and images
[03:07] <exodus_ms> ben44b: it's the connection your hard drive use to connect to mainboard
[03:07] <ben44b> yeah, it looks like the connections and bios are ok
[03:08] <ben44b> i eventually get ubuntu going but only after one or two CTRLALTDEL
[03:08] <pyromaniaman> ben44b, power, connections, make sure it's spiing up and set to boot from that drive
[03:08] <pyromaniaman> ben44b, try your hdd check delay
[03:09] <intouchnathan> how is every today
[03:09] <exodus_ms> ben44b: Try running from a Live CD and going into the system /boot/grub and editing MENU.LST using an editor. Then make sure the drive/partitions are correct.
[03:09] <jpablo> pyromaniaman: I dont know..the system was functionally good a week..and after...."bum" the message of fsck
[03:09] <pyromaniaman> every time you start it up?
[03:09] <ben44b> exodus...i don,t know how to do that
[03:10] <ben44b> :-[
[03:10] <Titan8990> exodus_ms: it doesn't sound like he is getting to a bootloader.... sounds like his drive is dead or not connected to the board
[03:10] <pyromaniaman> ben44b, does your bios have a setting for hard drive delay?
[03:10] <pyromaniaman> Titan8990, he says it works after 3 or 4 cad's
[03:10] <pyromaniaman> so
[03:11] <pyromaniaman> probably the drive not spinning u fast enough
[03:11] <pyromaniaman> *up
[03:11] <ben44b> pyro not sure
[03:11] <tabidachi_> what up accident
[03:11] <ben44b> i've been asked to go to the freehelpline
[03:11] <Kelen> pyromaniaman: your mean i must got nvidia source before that?
[03:11] <skeebo> Can anyone tell me what the main benefits to using fluxbox is? Or is it strictly user preference, with no real benefit?
[03:11] <exodus_ms> ben44b: tell me exactly what you have done. i.e. how you installed ubuntu, did you install along side windoze, etc...
[03:12] <_VIM_> skeebo: its lighter than most other window managers
[03:12] <madmax__> skeebo: lightweight
[03:12] <Kelen> pyromaniaman: before i install nvidia package from source.

[03:25] <BlindCamel> where do i get that
[03:25] <danopia> hi, apt is being an idiot wen i try installing rubygems
[03:25] <rashed2020> Can anyone explain what "auto eth0" in /etc/network/interfaces does?
[03:25] <xubuser> hlelo People.
[03:25] <xubuser> *Hello
[03:25] <Aghmed> do you know how to use Terminal?
[03:25] <BlindCamel> yes
[03:25] <Aghmed> Hi there X
[03:25] <danopia> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[03:25] <danopia>   rubygems: Depends: libgems-ruby1.8 (= 0.9.4-4) but it is not going to be installed
[03:25] <prince_jammys> skeebo: welcome
[03:25] <xubuser> is there a reason to leave Totem on the machine?
[03:26] <Aghmed> Okay, install ubuntu-tweak.
[03:26] <Aghmed> Totem? none.
[03:26] <prince_jammys> xubuser: no
[03:26] <BlindCamel> apt-get ubuntu-tweak    ?
[03:26] <nxnn14> Does anyone know what it means when I have the boot error  "unsupported PM caps regs version(7) kernel panic not syncing attempted to kill init!"
 And it's the default for every format....
[03:26] <TheOrz> here is the launchpad bug number: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/296167 anyone know when this fix is getting in?!
[03:26] <danopia> how would i go abuot getting rubygems on apt?
[03:26] <Aghmed> sudo aptitude is better
[03:26] <xubuser> argh!!!!!!
[03:26] <xubuser> prince_jammys: cool. removing. just thought to check.
[03:27] <pepperjack> rashed2020: brings up eth0 typically using dhcp on startup
[03:27] <prince_jammys> xubuser: install a different player, and you're done
[03:27] <cgd> i need mysql for ubuntu
[03:27] <cgd> who hava
[03:27] <xubuser> prince_jammys: yeah, I have installed  mplayer but everytime a new drive is plugged in somehow totem wants to be the one playing media files. :)
[03:27] <_VIM_> !tab | Aghmed (type the first 3 letters of the persons nick then press TAB Key)
[03:27] <rashed2020> I thought that was "iface eth0 inet dhcpd"
[03:27] <BlindCamel> Aghmed~ what is the command ?
[03:28] <prince_jammys> !defaultapp | xubuser
[03:28] <rashed2020> I'm pretty sure auto eth0 is something else cuz my network card didn't work with a static address untill I put it
[03:28] <nxnn14> Can anyone help me with the following error I get when I boot up now?  "unsupported PM caps regs version(7) kernel panic not syncing attempted to kill init!"
[03:28] <Aghmed> sudo aptitude install ubuntu-tweak
[03:28] <_VIM_> !who
[03:29] <danopia> how would i go abuot getting rubygems on apt?
[03:29] <pepperjack> rashed2020: basically the script does an ifup -a  and anything set to auto is automatically brought up otherwise youd have to ifup eth0 manually
[03:29] <joljam> firefox is freezing repeatedly on me
[03:29] <BlindCamel> done
[03:29] <Aghmed> okay, then run it.
[03:29] <madmax__> what is ubuntu-tweak
[03:29] <xubuser> prince_jammys: hehe, I have set the defualt app... many times. but now it's better to remove totem. More than all that, thanks for your quick reply. Totem gone. Problem solved. :)

[03:31] <prince_jammys> danopia: hm. and apt-get isn't installing the required packages?
[03:31] <pepperjack> BlindCamel: not sure why that doesnt work. its tough to tell with X autodetecting everything instead of just looking at the config file. have you tried just the binary package from nvidia? or just runnign nvidia-settings?
[03:31] <Diehardy> I need help with my eeepc701

[03:32] <Diehardy> I already have UBUNTU on my eepc
[03:32] <_VIM_> joljam: have you tried deleting /home/joljam/.mozilla and then try firefox again? (Back it up first though)
[03:32] <Aghmed> Camel, then you will be able to "pimp" Ubuntu, and install what is need.
[03:32] <TML> "Right-Alt+F1" and "Left-Atl+F1" both seem to go to tty1 - I can't seem to find the magic incantation to get "Right-Alt+F1" to go to tty13. Any pointers to the correct documentation would be appreciated.
[03:32] <nxnn14> Can anyone help me with the following error I get when I boot up now?  "unsupported PM caps regs version(7) kernel panic not syncing attempted to kill init!"
[03:33] <pepperjack> nxnn14: did you recently update?
[03:33] <nxnn14> pepperjack: no

[03:35] <nxnn14> pepperjack:I have tried booting with all 4 kernels that are available as well to no avail
[03:35] <Aghmed> You want to look for a green icon... with black ubuntu logo within
[03:36] <_VIM_> !who | Aghmed

[03:36] <BlindCamel> ~aghmed pm me
[03:37] <xubuser> guys my volume control in XFCE is not doing anything. Do I need to restart some service?
[03:37] <madmax__> squidly: you home directory should have all your personal settings ... just move that over
[03:37] <nxnn14> pepperjack; there was some more cryptic looking information I can boot it up to send it to you if you would like. I am on another computer now
[03:37] <squidly> madmax__: not really
[03:37] <squidly> my laptop is a pretty customized
[03:37] <madmax__> ok

[03:38] <squidly> _VIM_: I would have used that but there was no ability to make a cd
[03:38] <madmax__> squidly: couldnt you just copy the whole partition
[03:38] <joljam> i am getting frustrated about this firefox ubuntu problems.. its a big pain
[03:38] <squidly> madmax__: i'm actually moveing from 32-bit to 64bit
[03:38] <Aghmed> Blind, can you move to #ubuntu-co
[03:39] <skeebo> squidly: check out clonezilla, that should do what you want i think
[03:39] <madmax__> squidly: ohhhhhhh
[03:39] <_VIM_> squidly: you coudl stick the resulting .iso on a thumbdrive and mount the iso i bet it would do the same thing
[03:39] <pepperjack> squidly: you want all installed packages backed up?
[03:39] <_VIM_> !iso
[03:39] <madmax__> wouldnt the conf file be transferrable
[03:39] <squidly> madmax__: I would think so.. but I'm not sure how to move it
[03:39] <xubuser> anyone know why my volume controls are not responding?
[03:39] <xubuser> or how to debug that?
[03:39] <JackBeSlow> I have an issue with hibernate messing up my network connections, anyone available to help?
[03:39] <squidly> pepperjack: pretty much..
[03:40] <pepperjack> squidly: sudo dpkg --get-selections > packages.txt  you can then on the new install sudo dpkg --set-selections < packages.txt  then sudo aptitude install   <-- assuming i didnt have any typos
[03:40] <pepperjack> squidly: google that command anyway and you should find a howto
[03:40] <prince_jammys> !clone
[03:40] <squidly> pepperjack: did that... but the already installed packages screwed me up
