[02:50] <sugoruyo> just installing is a total pain in the @$$
[02:51] <cwillu> sugoruyo; just for the hell of it, you might want to try noapic;  failing that, I think the ftp should work, just google for an example of ftp in /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:51] <cwillu> I don't know the syntax offhand
[02:51] <richard> johndarkhorse: yes i try but ocur this error http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9785

[03:00] <heyjoe1> the one under system tools?
[03:00] <cppnewbie> guys, whats edubuntu? :S for example what de does edubuntu use and why is it called like that??
[03:01] <gnomefreak> edubuntu is based more for educations uses
[03:01] <gnomefreak> educational uses*
[03:01] <Frogzoo> !edubuntu
[03:01] <ubotu> [edubuntu]  an Ubuntu version suitable for classroom use. See http://edubuntu.org or visit #edubuntu
[03:01] <Jarigo> Anybody here got counter-strike source working with ubuntu?
[03:01] <heyjoe1> thank you frogzoo
[03:01] <Zoroaster> what is a good newsreader for Ubuntu?
[03:01] <cppnewbie> what de does edubuntu use? or its all in the site? :S
[03:02] <sugoruyo> how do i disable apic?
[03:02] <exono> i installed xnetcardconfig, but the network did not started on boot.

[03:02] <usr> I am copying .rar files from a CD rom to a folder on my desktop and the icons have a small lock icon on them, why is that and how can I remove it.
[03:02] <cppnewbie> so its a totally different one? not related to ubuntu and kubuntu? :S
[03:02] <Jarigo> how do i install my wireless networkcard?
[03:02] <gnomefreak> go to the sites listed above for more details

[03:03] <heyjoe1> is there a simple command i can type
[03:03] <usr> can some please help me ?"
[03:03] <heyjoe1> i tried sudo apt-get install  gstreamer0.8-mad
[03:03] <dradul> Zoroaster,  it depends a lot on your needs and tastes. If you are used to Forte Agent in MS Windows, Pan is a good replacement. Else there are others: Evolution, Mozilla Thunderbird, slrn and a few others.
[03:03] <anildigital> How to see linux drives usin windows
[03:04] <anildigital> please tell
[03:04] <ompaul> !tell anildigital about ntfs
[03:04] <Seveas> richard, are you trying apt-get update from the same computer as where your IRC client is on?
[03:04] <henna> stupid question, but how much space does ubuntu need on my harddrive?
[03:04] <henna> (excluding /home)
[03:04] <gnomefreak> ompaul: i dont think thats gonna help him :(
[03:04] <gnomefreak> hes doing reverse
[03:05] <Seveas> richard, and are you using a web proxy?
[03:05] <Frogzoo> heyjoe1: aplay will do it from the command line - amarok is pretty good though
[03:05] <richard> Seveas: yes, i'm trying from the same computer, i use a lan
[03:05] <AMDXP> hi there
[03:05] <Frogzoo> anildigital: install samba
[03:06] <Seveas> richard, the server works fine for me, perhaps you are using a proxy?
[03:06] <engla> I noticed my computer is running slow.. it seems Xorg is grabbing 513M resident memory right now..!! (I have 768M physical) What to do?
[03:06] <Seveas> richard, what do you see if you go to http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openexr/ in your web browser?
[03:06] <engla> Could it be the cairo-clock that does it?
[03:06] <Frogzoo> engla: upgrade your xserver probly
[03:06] <engla> Frogzoo: upgrade to what?
[03:06] <heyjoe1> how can i play mp3s and other useful files not offered on linux? is there a simple command i can type. i tried sudo apt-get install  gstreamer0.8-mad which is on the ubuntu site but it didnt work.
[03:06] <Zoroaster> dradul, I use Outlook Express in windows for news, and I use newsgroups alot
[03:06] <Frogzoo> engla: what's top say? is it the xserver, or an app?
[03:07] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell heyjoe1 about mp3
[03:07] <engla> it doesn't normally do this, never went above 250M before
[03:07] <engla> Frogzoo: it's X
[03:07] <richard> Seveas: denied acces
[03:07] <Frogzoo> engla: well updating xserver to latest never hurts
[03:07] <dradul> Zoroaster, then I'd suggest Pan, or Sylpheed-claws
[03:07] <Frogzoo> engla: what's your vid card?
[03:08] <engla> Frogzoo: I could try.. it's built from CVS now (co in january)
[03:08] <txwikinger2> !tell txwikinger2 about upgrade ubuntu
[03:08] <engla> Frogzoo: ati radeon 9200 Mobility, r200_dri driver
[03:08] <Frogzoo> engla: probly no need to compile - just enable the seveas repo & install fglrx
[03:09] <Seveas> richard, can you make a screenshot of your webbrowser as you are on that page and put it on the pastebin
[03:09] <dradul> Zoroaster, although MozTb has a more similar model to MS-OE, the latter newsreading model is, IMO, a nuisance to say it mildly. (I use slrn, but that may not by your cup of tea ;-))
[03:09] <engla> Frogzoo: nope, on ppc nothing is simple. Compiling again should work
[03:09] <Frogzoo> engla: ah
[03:09] <C-O-L-T> Hello I have got a problem! My sound card was just working ok but two days ago does not work. I checked first my hard things but under windows my soundcard works
[03:09] <C-O-L-T> opinion?
[03:10] <Rubin> probably a conflict between the esound system, and direct access
[03:10] <engla> I'll kill and restart X for now atleast...
[03:10] <Rubin> configure all your applications to play sounds using esound instead of direct
[03:11] <C-O-L-T> Rubin: how to do that
[03:11] <C-O-L-T> ?
[03:11] <rcaskey_> does anyone have a suggestion on a good rss monitor that pops up notifications when sites are updated and lets you click to view the parent web page?
[03:11] <Rubin> C-O-L-T: depends what application.
[03:11] <sugoruyo> please can someone help? i need to get linux up running yesterday and i cant get past half the install, no one have any ideas as to how i can resolve this??
[03:11] <C-O-L-T> Rubin: I have no sound
[03:11] <C-O-L-T> Rubin: at all
[03:11] <Rubin> C-O-L-T: in what program?
[03:12] <richard> Seveas: this is the screnshot http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9787
[03:12] <C-O-L-T> Rubin: in every program. For example when I start ubuntu I can not hear the intromusic
[03:12] <cppnewbie> Rubin: i think he means no sound. nothing nowhere.
[03:12] <Rubin> c
[03:12] <Rubin> C-O-L-T: hmm.
[03:12] <Rubin> C-O-L-T: is the sound system enabled? volume up? etc?
[03:12] <C-O-L-T> Rubin: but a few days ago everything was fine
[03:13] <engla> Frogzoo: after restarting X, it now uses 26M resident :-)
[03:13] <Seveas> richard, that's an error with your proxy server - not an Ubuntu error
[03:13] <Frogzoo> does wine support a network adapter I can snoop (eg. l0phtcrack) ? I have winpcap installed, but there's no adapter visible...
[03:13] <hikenboot> sudo hdparm  -d1 -c1 -u1 /dev/hda   -----gives me --------------HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted------any ideas?
[03:13] <Frogzoo> engla: until it falls over next time :)
[03:13] <C-O-L-T> Rubin: in rythmbox everything is ok\
[03:13] <hikenboot> when its trying to set using_dma to true
[03:13] <Rubin> C-O-L-T: what output method is rythmbox configured to use?
[03:13] <engla> Frogzoo: I suspect a certain eye-candy app. So I'll investigate it
[03:13] <C-O-L-T> Rubin: ok now it works, how stupid I am
[03:14] <Rubin> C-O-L-T: hehe as long as you got it :)
[03:14] <cppnewbie> lol....
[03:14] <Frogzoo> hikenboot: try just 'sudo hdparm  -d1  /dev/hda '
[03:14] <richard> Seveas: ok i will try to contact the administrator.. Thanks for your help
[03:14] <aureus> hi
[03:15] <C-O-L-T> Rubin: Guess I have tried everything, looking for new hardware, everything, except this small thing
[03:15] <aureus> i thought about replacing my bmp with bmpx, is there any repo for it? or must i compile it myself?
[03:15] <Rubin> C-O-L-T: sound can be tricky, dont be hard on yourself
[03:15] <hikenboot> I have a nvidia chipset on an abit nf7-s2g   ---sudo hdparm -d1 /dev/hda gives HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted.....I compiled my own kernel and i think I enabled the nvidia chipset where it had to be
[03:15] <sugoruyo> it says it fails to put the initrd-tools into the target, then gives the absolute path to a non-existent log file...
[03:15] <Rubin> hikenboot: try it with sudo
[03:15] <C-O-L-T> Rubin: hehe :))) It is ok now
[03:16] <aureus> Rubin, he did with sudo :P
[03:16] <hikenboot> I did try it with sudo
[03:16] <C-O-L-T> Rubin: I have  another problem
[03:16] <belou> where can i find the kernel-tree for 2.6.12 kernel?
[03:16] <aureus> belou, kernel.org
[03:16] <hikenboot> its looking for somthing in the kernel which I am not sure what it is
[03:16] <Frogzoo> hikenboot: did you enable DMA in the kernel?
[03:16] <aureus> belou, or what do you mean? it's still available there
[03:16] <hikenboot> I think so I am almost positive i did
[03:17] <belou> aureus, it is not on synaptic
[03:17] <aureus> nobody knowing if there is a repo for bmpx?
[03:17] <Frogzoo> hikenboot: it's very very odd for 'hdparm -d1' to barf on any disk in the last 5 years...
[03:17] <dradul> hikenboot, it may very well be that the board drivers are not loaded. You can figure it out by examinig the output of "dmesg | less". You may need to recompile your kernel.
[03:17] <aureus> belou, ahh i thought you wanted to compile the kernel.
[03:17] <belou> i need to compile my nvidis driver
[03:17] <Seveas> aureus, linux-source-2.6.12
[03:17] <aureus> sad... i'll use bmp
[03:17] <belou> nvidia
[03:17] <C-O-L-T> Rubin: I have both KDE and GNOME but how can I change my KDE start-up screen to GNOME one
[03:17] <C-O-L-T> ?
[03:17] <C-O-L-T> Rubin: do you understand me
[03:17] <hikenboot> where do i find out what board driver it needs ...maybe the one i am using isnt the proper one
[03:18] <Rubin> C-O-L-T: by startup screen, you mean the login?
[03:18] <C-O-L-T> Rubin: that is the point, yes
[03:18] <Rubin> C-O-L-T: gdm is gnomes, kdm is kde's, so install one and uninstall the other
[03:18] <dradul> hikenboot. type "lsmod | less", or did you compile the nvidia drivers statically
[03:19] <C-O-L-T> Rubin: where to change those things
[03:19] <C-O-L-T> ?
[03:19] <S0me1> hi guys ;p
[03:19] <Rubin> C-O-L-T: system -> administration -> synaptec pacage manager
[03:19] <hikenboot> no they were compiled as modules...but i cant be sure I compiled every one of them in the right place is the problem there spread out all over the kernel config and I dont know where there is a list of this kernel parameters for my nf7-s2g abit motherboard
[03:19] <cppnewbie> how can i take a screen of my whole desktop? :S
[03:20] <cppnewbie> *screenshot
[03:20] <C-O-L-T> Rubin: thanks I wil try it soon
[03:20] <AMDXP> ccpnewbie you can use gimp to do it
[03:20] <gnomefreak> cppnewbie: system>screenshot :)
[03:20] <Fracture> cppnewbie: hit print screen
[03:20] <cppnewbie> and on kde? :S
[03:21] <hikenboot> ah wait this might be a clue from dmesg .....NFORCE2-U400R: neither IDE port enabled (BIOS)....is that mean its not enabled in the bios?
[03:21] <gnomefreak> right click on kde i think
[03:21] <Morfosomo> cppnewbie, with the keyboard, press print screen, also from the launcher go system->take snapshot
[03:21] <gnomefreak> its been a while
[03:21] <dradul> hikenboot, I suggest that you recompile the kernel using an ubuntu config as template, adding the extra things you me need (when doing make oldconfig) and using kernel-package to be able to create an installable deb with initrd support.
[03:21] <cppnewbie> print screen didnt work for me. dunno y
[03:21] <Frogzoo> cppnewbie: press the magic 'print' button
[03:21] <Fracture> or ALT-PrintScreen to capture the current window
[03:21] <munzir> Hi, I am reading on http://www.zend.com/products/zend_optimizer/general_faq that php should be compiled without debug support (the default configration of the standard PHP package). You can test if your PHP is non-debug by viewing the output of phpinfo() function. What shall I look for in phpinfo output? Build Debug? or report_zend_debug? or what?
[03:21] <dradul> hikenboot, that should help a lot with hardware detection at boot up time.
[03:21] <heyjoe1> hello, when attempting to use the oft recommended sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-plugins to enable mp3s on ubuntu, i get an error message saying E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[03:21] <heyjoe1> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[03:21] <heyjoe1>  any ideas on how to enable mp3s or fix this problem?
[03:21] <hikenboot> except ubuntu right now doesnt have a xen kernel which is the whole purpose of this mess
[03:21] <Seveas> heyjoe1, close synaptic
[03:22] <Morfosomo> !mp3
[03:22] <ubotu> hmm... mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[03:22] <Seveas> ot gnome-app-install or any other package manager
[03:22] <mivecz> DOes  anyone to help me install  e17 in  dapper drake
[03:22] <Seveas> !e
[03:22] <heyjoe1> i typed what it said in the ubotu recommended link
[03:22] <sugoruyo> i think you folks could at least say you cant/wont help me or sth...
[03:22] <gnomefreak> mivecz: please join #ubuntu+1 for dapper related questions
[03:22] <heyjoe1> what is synaptic
[03:22] <dradul> hikenboot, but do start by creating the config template based on an ubuntu kernel. When you use "make oldconfig" you'll be prompted to set up the extra configuration settings after you patch the sources.
[03:22] <Morfosomo> sugoruyo, i didint read your question,. please dont whipp me :)
[03:22] <gnomefreak> heyjoe1: graphical package manager
[03:23] <S0me1> heyjoe1, it's to mange software
[03:23] <hikenboot> ah so copy the .config file to the xen kernel build structure?
[03:23] <S0me1> hi gnomefreak ;p
[03:23] <heyjoe1> i dont think i have it open
[03:23] <gnomefreak> heyjoe1: do you have updates running
[03:23] <S0me1> how are you man
[03:23] <gnomefreak> hi S0me1
[03:23] <gnomefreak> im ok and you?
[03:23] <dradul> hikenboot, yeah!
[03:23] <sugoruyo> yeah well i've been asking for ages and haven't gotten a |dunno|
[03:23] <S0me1> not bad
[03:23] <hikenboot> I didnt know you could do that!
[03:23] <ux> hi2all
[03:23] <heyjoe1> i dont think so
[03:23] <munzir> heyjoe1: then reboot your pc and the first thing you do is to run apt-get install ...
[03:23] <hikenboot> is there directions on it somewhere?
[03:23] <sugoruyo> it says it fails to put the initrd-tools into the target, then gives the absolute path to a non-existent log file...
[03:23] <dradul> hikenboot, ;-D
[03:23] <sugoruyo> when installing
[03:24] <heyjoe1> ok
[03:24] <munzir> Seveas: isn't this a good solution that I gave to heyjoe1? ;)
[03:26] <hikenboot> or is it litterally as simple as copying the config and overwritting the original and the sudo make menuconfig oldconfig ?
[03:26] <fletch33> morning all :) anyone tell me how to turn off one pareticular upgrade alert in synaptic? i dont want to be reminded to upgrade this particular file becuase i like it the way it is.  thanks
[03:26] <hikenboot> also does it have to be the same kernel version...subversion?
[03:27] <heyjoe1> i was just on asking about mp3s and was told to restart and type something in the command line. i forgot what it was?
[03:28] <cwillu> fletch33; looking at force/pinning
[03:28] <Morg> Anyone know what package I should install to get gmake?
[03:28] <Lab0rized> Hello, anyone there know the site www.ubuntuguide.org ?
[03:28] <belou> rhaaa is there someone having nvidia quadro on 2.6.12-10 kernel?
[03:28] <cwillu> !ubuntuguide
[03:28] <ubotu> ubuntuguide is, like, totally, out of date, reported to break a lot and generally a bad source for information. Use help.ubuntu.com or wiki.ubuntu.com instead
[03:28] <cwillu> ya, we know about it :)
[03:28] <fletch33> cwillu,  ? you lost me
[03:29] <cwillu> in synaptic, there's a thing to force a package to stay with a certain major version, or an exact version
[03:29] <dradul> hikenboot, copy the config from your workin kernel in boot and start from there; there is no need that the running kernel and the one you wnt to compile be the same versio, as you are using the config merely as a starting point and the kernel configuration scripts are smart enough to figure out the differences..You can setup versions for the deb package using make-kpkg.
[03:29] <Lab0rized> thanks ubotu. Because i tried their guide to add extra repositories and they where down i think :)
[03:30] <fletch33> cwillu,  k thanks i will look into it
[03:30] <heyjoe1> sorry to ask again, but how can i make ubuntu play mp3s. it wasn't working before when i followed the link
[03:30] <cwillu> fletch33; package -> lock version maybe
[03:30] <dradul> heyjoel, install gstreamer0.8-mad if using Breezy.
[03:30] <fletch33> cwillu,  going there now
[03:31] <hikenboot> no kidding ...wow....thats great thanks!
[03:31] <heyjoe1> i tried that and it said install: too few arguments
[03:31] <heyjoe1> Try `install --help' for more information.
[03:31] <heyjoe1> frank@ubuntu:~$
[03:31] <port7> just wanna say Xgl is damn cool
[03:31] <port7> not sure what use it is, but damn cool!
[03:31] <dradul> hikenboot, ;-)
[03:31] <Morg> Anyone know how to install gmake in Ubuntu?
[03:31] <fletch33> cwillu,  well i locked it so we will see what happens. thnkas
[03:32] <cwillu> port7, you've just volunteered to help me get it working in #ubuntu+1 :p
[03:32] <port7> heh
[03:32] <cwillu> fletch33; lol, hope so;  everything should be using the same settings, so it should apply to the update manager too
[03:32] <Frogzoo> !buildessential
[03:32] <ubotu> NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Frogzoo
[03:32] <port7> cwillu: i just followed the instructions on the forum pretty much
[03:32] <Frogzoo> !build-essential
[03:32] <ubotu> it has been said that build-essential is a meta package for software building see !gcc for more info
[03:32] <dradul> heyjoel, use synaptic, or "sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-mad"
[03:33] <Frogzoo> Morg: install pkg 'build-essential'
[03:33] <Morg> Frogzoo: It's not in build-essential, if that's for me.
[03:33] <dradul> heyjoel, you need to enable the Universe reposotories (and the Multiverse asz well to be in the safe side".
[03:33] <Frogzoo> no? hmmm...
[03:33] <S0me1> heyjoe1, try sudo apt-setup
[03:33] <zeitfalle> apt-get install make
[03:33] <hikenboot> dradul: it looks like the configs are called config-2.6.12-9-386....is that the right file...I simply rename it to .config?
[03:33] <heyjoe1> dradul, when i tried that it said E: Type 'Major' is not known on line 7 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:33] <heyjoe1> E: The list of sources could not be read.
[03:33] <Morg> zeitfalle: make does not install gmake
[03:34] <dradul> hikenboot, just type make oldconfig, or make menuconfig, the configurationscripts will pick up the configuration file of the running server.
[03:34] <zeitfalle> Ok, it does on my debian box
[03:34] <zeitfalle> Sorry can't help then
[03:34] <heyjoe1> somel, when i tried your advice it asked for a cd rom
[03:34] <heyjoe1> how do i use synaptic to get what i want?
[03:34] <hikenboot> ah...the light turns on so thats what make oldconfig does...I miss understood...wow this has been really great thanks a lot!
[03:35] <nelson_> hola
[03:35] <S0me1> heyjoe1, you must put source for APT fisrt
[03:35] <dradul> heyjoel, that's very strange. Did you edit sources.list by hand?
[03:35] <cwillu> heyjoel; were you connected to the internet when you install ubuntu?
[03:35] <S0me1> heyjoe1, by sudo apt-setup  you will setup apt source but choose HTTP not CD
[03:35] <Frogzoo> Morg: guess pkg 'make' will do it
[03:36] <heyjoe1> i didnt install ubuntu myself
[03:36] <Morg> Frogzoo: It's already installed
[03:36] <heyjoe1> i edited something by hand
[03:36] <heyjoe1> i had to delete #s from some file
[03:36] <cwillu> heyjoel, check /etc/apt/sources.list and make sure it's got http sources listed
[03:36] <cwillu> and probably remove the cdrom sources (put a # before them to disable)
[03:36] <nickrud> heyjoe1: you removed too many ## ;)
[03:36] <Frogzoo> Morg: so what's the problem?
[03:36] <Jubei> hi guys. I'm having a bit of trouble with my monitor. X11 doesn't seem to respond to the modes I've listed in xorg.conf, any ideas why?
[03:36] <heyjoe1> permission denied
[03:37] <heyjoe1> what can i do for removing too many ##s
[03:37] <Morg> Frogzoo: Someone's telling me to use 'gmake' instead of 'make'. Are they full of it?
[03:37] <davalex> Is there made any iso images for drapy draker?
[03:37] <Frogzoo> make --version
[03:37] <Frogzoo> GNU Make 3.80
[03:37] <sugoruyo> is there anyone who knows if it can be done? is anyone reading this and my previous msgs? cant someone respond? am i forced to live without linux or go buy a new pc? ffs is linux any different or jsut a harder to use widows clone?
[03:37] <cwillu> heyjoel;  gotta open it via sudo;  be careful, you can break things
[03:37] <Frogzoo> Morg: as always, it depends - but the stock make is gnu
[03:38] <cwillu> "terminal|sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list"
[03:38] <nickrud> heyjoe1: if you could paste the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list to paste.ubuntu-nl.org, I'll take a look; use gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:38] <cwillu> ah, I always forget about gksudo :)
[03:38] <elkbuntu> sugoruyo, calm down will you. there's more than just you in the channel needing help
[03:38] <Frogzoo> Morg: you might also need pkg 'makedepend'
[03:38] <nickrud> I still have some bumps from the masters reminding me
[03:38] <tushkee> heyjoe1: do type: sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.backup
[03:39] <sugoruyo> i been in here four hours
[03:39] <heyjoe1> frank@ubuntu:~$ /etc/apt/sources.list to paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[03:39] <heyjoe1> bash: /etc/apt/sources.list: Permission denied
[03:39] <heyjoe1> frank@ubuntu:~$ gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:39] <heyjoe1> (gedit:8578): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
[03:39] <heyjoe1> Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
[03:39] <sugoruyo> with a very specific question
[03:39] <tushkee> heyjoe1: then do: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:39] <sugoruyo> i have an urgent problem
[03:39] <tushkee> heyjoe1: that will let you edit it
[03:39] <cwillu> sugoruyo; there are companies that will sell you personal expert support :)
[03:39] <heyjoe1> its not letting me by the looks of things
[03:39] <elkbuntu> sugoruyo, you've just come in on the back of a quiet time when it's mostly people with their own problems talking
[03:39] <tushkee> try sudo instead of gksudo
[03:40] <sugoruyo> and noone is even responding beyond update your bios, use the disc for your arch and read non-existent wiki pages
[03:40] <S0me1> heyjoe1, sudo  /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:40] <cwillu> sugoruyo; I think there are guide that you might be able to find on google to create a local deb repository
[03:40] <sugoruyo> on mac os x?
[03:40] <sugoruyo> or windows?
[03:40] <Frogzoo> for anyone interested - apparently nic snooping is beyond wine - so that fixes my problem :)
[03:40] <sugoruyo> i dont have second linux machine
[03:40] <cwillu> the archives don't care about platform
[03:40] <heyjoe1> nothings happening
[03:40] <S0me1> heyjoe1, when you put sudo before any command in ubuntu tha's mean you are have root
[03:40] <sugoruyo> that's what i'm talking about all this time
[03:40] <S0me1> root=admin
[03:40] <heyjoe1> ok lets start from the top
[03:41] <tushkee> nothing happens when you "sudo gedit" a file?
[03:41] <heyjoe1> i might be a little confused
[03:41] <tushkee> not even an error?
[03:41] <nickrud> heyjoe1: open your browser to paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[03:41] <cwillu> sugoruyo; if you can get an ftp or http server running, all that matters is that the right files are in the right folders, and that you point the installer to the right url :p
[03:41] <sugoruyo> ok
[03:41] <sugoruyo> step 1: what files should be where?
[03:41] <sugoruyo> step 2: how do i point the installer to the right url?
[03:42] <heyjoe1> ok i did the gedit thing
[03:42] <heyjoe1> and now a new window has opened up
[03:42] <S0me1> heyjoe1, cool :p
[03:42] <heyjoe1> would u like me to copy whats inside
[03:42] <sugoruyo> so far i've not received a single hint as to whether it is possible, only a link to wiki page that asks me to create it
[03:42] <sugoruyo> that's why im pissed
[03:42] <tushkee> yeah edit that
[03:42] <davalex> Anyonw?
[03:42] <tushkee> i hope you did backup your sources.list first
[03:42] <sugoruyo> cause basically i need this done yesterday
[03:42] <nickrud> heyjoe1: yes, paste that on the paste site

[03:43] <nickrud> well, we know what his problem is, anyway

[03:44] <GTX> Where can I get something to par broken files
[03:45] <jose__> what is the simplest method to go about finding a fixed point on a continuous function?
[03:45] <elkbuntu> hmm i'm missing the codec for the media on that page it seems...
[03:45] <XVampireX> Can't wait for Ubuntu to arrive... My CDR's are either broken or unplugged :P
[03:45] <cwillu> sugoruyo; just trying to figure out how much I can assume you know
[03:45] <jose__> sorry, wrong channel
[03:45] <GTX> !info par
[03:46] <liable> sugoruyo: yes, it is possible. let me see if i can try and find a link
[03:46] <XVampireX> Do you like penguins?
[03:46] <GTX> How do I use pars to fix broken files
[03:46] <ubotu> par: (Paragraph reformatter), section universe/text, is optional. Version: 1.51-1 (breezy), Packaged size: 39 kB, Installed size: 120 kB
[03:46] <sugoruyo> cwillu, so what does that say about me?
[03:46] <sugoruyo> cwillu, i'm not really interested in how windows works internally
[03:47] <concept10> when I add info to /etc/hosts, do I have to reload something in order for the added hosts to become recognized?
[03:47] <sugoruyo> cwillu, i basically need linux to be up and running and updated by friday
[03:47] <XVampireX> Are there no social conversations in this channel?
[03:47] <cwillu> xvlun; basically no :p
[03:47] <GTX> !info par2
[03:47] <cwillu> bah

[03:47] <cwillu> xvamp; not really :p
[03:48] <XVampireX> cwillu: Need to open up a social channel for ubuntu then
[03:48] <concept10> XVampireX, why would someone want to have a social conversation
[03:48] <cwillu> #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:48] <nickrud> XVampireX: #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:48] <cwillu> sugoruyo; did you see the google link?
[03:48] <XVampireX> Because it's cool
[03:48] <cwillu> I don't know that it's got a link for you, but that's basically what you're looking for
[03:48] <johndarkhorse> XVampireX: you can be cool in #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:49] <S0me1> GTX, run synaptix > edit > fix
[03:49] <elkbuntu> cwillu, i think he just ignored my assistance
[03:49] <cppnewbie> how can someone use proxies on linux? :S
[03:49] <nickrud> concept10: no, you don't
[03:50] <sugoruyo> cwillu, i'm checkin out the repo howto
[03:50] <cwillu> elkbuntu; or he just saw it (it was right before that paste dump) and is looking at it :)
[03:50] <sugoruyo> from debian.org
[03:50] <cwillu> k
[03:50] <heyjoe2> ok, im very sorry for pasting into the channel
[03:50] <nickrud> heyjoe2: , live and learn
[03:50] <heyjoe2> i didnt know where to paste
[03:50] <concept10> nickrud, thanks
[03:50] <cwillu> no worries, we may even forget about the incident in a year or two
[03:50] <heyjoe2> ok, so where should i paste my sources.list?
[03:50] <aboyousif> hello , what is the root pasword for ubuntu :)
[03:50] <XVampireX> Even though I respect that there is a social channel but it doesn't seem that social, since no one is talking. LOL!
[03:51] <cwillu> !paste
[03:51] <ubotu> Don't flood the channel! Please use the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ or the channel #flood to paste large amount of text.
[03:51] <cwillu> sugoruyo; it should basically be a matter of copying the data off the cd into appropriately named folders
[03:51] <Mandible> root password is the same as the first user you made
[03:51] <dradul> heyjoe2, you can create a new sources.list that includes all the known good repositories by using the tool at http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[03:51] <cwillu> sugoruyo; might be able to get an idea of what it should look like if you put one of the deb source http:// lines into your browser
[03:51] <S0me1> brb
[03:52] <aboyousif> Mandible, thanks alot
[03:52] <nickrud> heyjoe2: but, we saw them already. You need to rebuild them. The simplest way is to simply replace them with the ones inhttp://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 and go from there
[03:52] <belou> is someone has compiled nvidia driver with 2.6.12-10 kernel?
[03:52] <gnomefreak> what would e17 show up as in syanptic?
[03:52] <nickrud> heyjoe2: once you've done that, remove the # from lines 19 & 20, and add the word multiverse at the ends of lines 19 & 20
[03:53] <cwillu> gnomefreak; I just looked up wm I think
[03:53] <cwillu> ewm?
[03:53] <heyjoe2> ok i went to that website the source o matic one
[03:53] <gnomefreak> ok ty
[03:53] <heyjoe2> and i followed the instructions and i got a bunch of information
[03:53] <heyjoe2> what do i do with it
[03:53] <XVampireX> Hey, it's kinda off-topic but I found this website on DIGG: http://euronode.com
[03:53] <heyjoe2> ok just read nickrud
[03:54] <heyjoe2> theres no # on lines 19 and 20
[03:54] <heyjoe2> and multiverse is already there
[03:54] <Frogzoo> !e17
[03:54] <Frogzoo> nooooo......
[03:55] <heyjoe2> should i just copy that into my sources.list file and save it?
[03:55] <gnomefreak> the bot might not know it
[03:55] <nickrud> heyjoe2: yeah, so they are. Not quite official, actually better.
[03:55] <nickrud> heyjoe2: yes
[03:55] <Frogzoo> root_: irc under root is an extremely bad idea...
[03:55] <heyjoe2> ok
[03:55] <heyjoe2> so just to confirm
[03:56] <heyjoe2> im deleting all the other information and pasting the info from the website
[03:56] <heyjoe2> then saving?
[03:56] <cppnewbie> how can someone use proxies on ubuntu :D ? :S
[03:56] <nickrud> heyjoe2: yes
[03:56] <heyjoe2> thank you so much
[03:56] <Frogzoo> cppnewbie: you configure the proxy in the app, yes?
[03:56] <nickrud> heyjoe2: you gotta have good sources ;)
[03:56] <cppnewbie> i dunno
[03:56] <heyjoe2> now back to the original question: how can i play mp3s and the other files that linux wont let me?
[03:56] <cppnewbie> :p
[03:57] <cppnewbie> heyjoe2 http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[03:57] <nickrud> heyjoe2: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[03:57] <snowblink> !tell aboyousif about sudo
[03:57] <heyjoe2> ok
[03:57] <nickrud> slow
[03:57] <cppnewbie> :D
[03:57] <dradul> heyjoe2, open a terminal and type without the quotes: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-mad"
[03:57] <cwillu> sugoruyo; any progress?
[03:57] <nickrud> heyjoe2: start at the top, and work your way down. That'll get you set up for most media
[03:58] <sugoruyo> cwillu, slow
[03:58] <heyjoe2> hey it seems to be working. thanks dradul
[03:58] <ubuntu_> nenas
[03:58] <ubuntu_> kachondonas
[03:58] <cwillu> did you ever give noapic a shot?
[03:58] <sugoruyo> cwillu, me?
[03:59] <heyjoe2> next question, i just plugged a thumbdrive into my usb port. how do i access it?
[03:59] <cwillu> yse
[03:59] <cwillu> yes
[03:59] <sugoruyo> cwillu, not since i couldn't get someone to tell me the parameter i need
[03:59] <sugoruyo> cwillu, and it's not on the help of the installer
[04:00] <cwillu> noapic on the kernel prompt
[04:00] <cwillu> okay
[04:00] <sugoruyo> cwillu, just like that?
[04:00] <cwillu> been a while since I played with it
[04:00] <nickrud> heyjoe2: I don't have a thumb drive, but i think it should show up under places on the top menu bar
[04:00] <ompaul> !bootoptions
[04:00] <ubotu> bootoptions is, like, totally, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootOptions not the full complement of boot options but it is some of them
[04:00] <cwillu> believe so, if you google it, you should get some hits
[04:00] <cwillu> nevermind
[04:00] <ompaul> cwillu, ^^^^^
[04:00] <cppnewbie> when my name is somebody's line i get a beep! any way to disable this? :S
[04:00] <cwillu> what ompaul said
[04:00] <cwillu> nevermind; _do_ what ompaul said :)
[04:00] <cwillu> why does everything I say come out wrong the first time?
[04:01] <fluxy> Hello. I am making a presentation on linux. Does anyone have an idea where I could get flash/impress presentations on ubuntu?
[04:01] <ompaul> cwillu, look at the wiki at PaulsKludge it also helps - gotta log off
[04:01] <heyjoe2> doesnt appear to be there
[04:01] <ramlez> if  i used command apt-get upgrade i will  have installed ale updates?
[04:01] <cwillu> sugoruyo; what ompaul said
[04:01] <cwillu> the wiki can be a bit weird;  if it says no such page, look at the right column for the page name
[04:02] <nickrud> ramlez: if you did apt-get update first, yes
[04:02] <ramlez> nickrud, :) thx
[04:02] <sugoruyo> is it possible it's an apic problem since some distros and live-cd freeze up on something about IRQ 16 or 11?
[04:03] <cwillu> sugoruyo; I honestly don't know, but it sounds suspicious
[04:03] <sugoruyo> cwillu, i'll give it a shot, tnx
[04:03] <gnomefreak> wm and enlightenment the same?
[04:03] <gnomefreak> wm = windos maker
[04:03] <cwillu> no
[04:03] <gnomefreak> ok so no interchanging apps than
[04:04] <johndarkhorse> gnomefreak: i don't understand. 'entrance' is the WM iirc of enlightenment
[04:04] <gnomefreak> johndarkhorse: it is the login screen for it
[04:04] <GTX> hi I want to mount my 2nd hdd to another directory on my server, The problem is the 1st directory its mounted to his alot of stuff in it. and I want to mount it to another user to store big files, but when I mount it to there folder unfortanly it just shows everything which I had in my 1st folder of course, how can I make something like /dev/sdb1/2nddir/ then I could mount that and it would be empty.
[04:05] <gnomefreak> but what i meant is window maker apps run on enlightenment?
[04:05] <gnomefreak> will*
[04:06] <cwillu> GTX, mkdir the folder you want to mount it in, and then mount it there
[04:06] <sugoruyo> cwillu, ok so the thing about the repo says i should use some dpkg command, but i'm on a mac so? is the directory tree on the dvd ready for use or do i have to manually create the one needed?
[04:06] <GTX> cwillu, explain :S
[04:07] <GTX> cwillu, I did that but then it displays everything on the 1st directory.
[04:07] <cwillu> gtx; are the files you don't want to see already on the second hd?
[04:07] <GTX> correct.
[04:07] <GTX> and I want them to stay there
[04:07] <dbzdeath> is there any way to stop memory leaks? i'm sick of coming to my pc after a while and finding that my pc is almost completely out of ram and it takes me 10 mins to kill the application responsible because it's so slow
[04:07] <cwillu> ahh, I get it
[04:07] <GTX> indeed hehe
[04:07] <cwillu> you want to mount the hd in two places, with two seperate partions, basically?
[04:08] <cwillu> sugoruyo; I'm not dead sure
[04:08] <GTX> cwillu, I guess thats how you say it yes.
[04:08] <heyjoe2> hi, another question, im trying to access my usb thumbdrive and it is not appearing anywhere in 'places'
[04:08] <heyjoe2> i plugged my mp3 player into the usb and its drive automatically loaded. any idea how to fix it?
[04:09] <cwillu> sugoruyo; peek at a normal web accesible repository and see if the files are the same types
[04:09] <engla> Hmm.. my ipod does not mount automatically. How do I mount it? Does it depend on hotplug?
[04:09] <cwillu> GTX, you might want to investigate hard links
[04:09] <cwillu> I _think_ that's what you want
[04:09] <nickrud> GTX: you might want to try using the --bind option to mount
[04:09] <GTX> exlain nickrud
[04:09] <engla> I can see the ipod with lshw.. but how do I find out which /dev it is?
[04:10] <cwillu> for anyone who might know better:  what I'm think is that he would make a dir on his homedrive mount, and make a hardlink elsewhere to that folder that gives others access to the subdir;  is this even close to right?
[04:10] <nickrud> GTX: it allows you to mount a subdir of your second drive to a location on your first drive. I've used it a couple of times (academically)
[04:11] <liable> engla: dmesg might give a clue
[04:11] <engla> liable: not much.. I have "usb 4-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3
[04:11] <GTX> nickrud, Ok how would I do that if I wanted to mount /dev/sdb1 to /home/metroid/public_html/files/ but I dont want it showing exactly what is in /dev/sdb1 as thats where my files are.
[04:12] <engla> and "usb-storage: device found at 3"
[04:12] <liable> then it doesnt look like its given it a /dev. i dont know anything about them. surely google has something to say about ipods and linux?
[04:13] <nickrud> GTX: I'd create a dir below the top level on sdb1, and bind mount that dir to .../files/ .
[04:13] <drezha> why wont my DVD's play? what do I hvae to download to get them to work?
[04:13] <GTX> nickrud, Ok, how could I do this, if you could go through it step by step, I am very new on mounting stuff :p
[04:13] <HymnToLife> !dvd
[04:13] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[04:13] <cribbon> hrm, what program should i use to split a 800 mb movie to get it on a 700 cd ? ( would be rar on windows, what should i use here ? ( gui please ))
[04:14] <heyjoe2> can ubuntu search for thumbdrives?
[04:14] <cwillu> sugoruyo; http://www.experts-exchange.com/Operating_Systems/Linux/Linux_Setup/Q_21433112.html has something that might be useful;
[04:14] <nickrud> GTX: heh. I'd have to relearn the exact steps. I hate saying this, but man mount and searching for --bind would probably be smarter
[04:15] <GTX> nickrud, Ive already looked at that still have no idea what to do
[04:15] <liable> rar to split a movie? try avidemux
[04:15] <drezha> so how do I get that DVD thing downloaded?
[04:15] <cppnewbie> who controls ubotu in here? who made the infobot? :S
[04:16] <liable> cppnewbie: cafuego
[04:16] <HymnToLife> cppnewbie> anyone an make an infoox
[04:16] <HymnToLife> can*
[04:16] <cppnewbie> i cant lol :p
[04:16] <HymnToLife> yes you can
[04:16] <HymnToLife> pm me :)
[04:16] <HymnToLife> I'll tell you how
[04:17] <nickrud> GTX: mount your sdb1 to it's normal place (not .../files/) ; then sudo mount --bind /path/to/sdb1/subdir .../files should work
[04:17] <HymnToLife> !ntfs
[04:17] <ubotu> I guess ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows 2000 and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[04:19] <cwillu> all I wanted was a cup of coffee
[04:20] <cwillu> all I got was spoiled milk in that coffee
[04:20] <engla> My ipod doesn't want to get a device node in /dev why? Can I create one manually?
[04:20] <nickrud> cwillu: that was not the last cup, I hope
[04:20] <sugoruyo> cwillu, it says i have to subscribe
[04:20] <GTX> Thanks nickrud got it working
[04:20] <GTX> ;D
[04:20] <edulix> hi! drupal or php in general doesn't seem to succeed sending the confirmation email
[04:21] <edulix> how can I configure my ubuntu/apache/php5 correctly?
[04:21] <nickrud> GTX: glad to hear it. Luckily, it was simple enough I remembered enough
[04:21] <cwillu> sugoruyo; scroll down
[04:21] <HymnToLife> !php
[04:21] <ubotu> it has been said that lamp is Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP, one of the standard internet server installations. Installing LAMP in Ubuntu is fairly straightforward. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[04:21] <cwillu> sugoruyo; 'bout 2 thirds of the way down it starts getting useful
[04:21] <johndarkhorse> ubotu: tell edulix about lamp
[04:22] <bSON> hi
[04:22] <bSON> does somebody here use anjuta?
[04:22] <sugoruyo> cwillu, you mean the directory structures?
[04:22] <cwillu> sugoruyo; note, this implies that you can get at least to a command prompt
[04:22] <edulix> let's see this lamp thingie - I had searched in google for ubuntu lamp without much success
[04:23] <cwillu> sugoruyo; were you talking about the expertexchange link?
[04:23] <johndarkhorse> edulix: check your priv msgs
[04:23] <sugoruyo> cwillu, yes
[04:23] <[blah] > why does my scrollwheel stop working?
[04:23] <cwillu> search the page for 'accepted answer'
[04:23] <drezha> hum...better try SUSE again...
[04:23] <cwillu> sugoruyo; have you been able to get to a command prompt at least?
[04:23] <edulix> johndarkhorse: in that webpage that ubotu gave me there's no info about configuring mail/sendmail or whatever
[04:24] <sugoruyo> cwillu, where? you mean the linux installer?
[04:24] <cwillu> a linux command prompt, yes
[04:24] <SirKillalot> does someone know a linux compatible TV card for digital sattelite?
[04:25] <sugoruyo> i guess alt+ctrl+f2 should do the job while i'm on the installer
[04:25] <johndarkhorse> edulix: 09:21 < edulix> how can I configure my ubuntu/apache/php5 correctly?  <<< i don't see anyting about sendmail here. i answered your question
[04:25] <cwillu> okay, ya, wasn't sure if you were even getting that far
[04:25] <ufo> SirKillalot: why not buy an digibox with linux... dreambox
[04:25] <cwillu> (btw, nopaic gave the same problem?)
[04:25] <sugoruyo> cwillu, the experts... page don't have an accepted answer reference
[04:26] <edulix> johndarkhorse: sorry that was my fault then ;)
[04:26] <cwillu> ?
[04:26] <sugoruyo> cwillu, i'm on the installer noapic right now will have an answer shortly
[04:26] <cwillu> k

[04:27] <heyjoe2> cwillu?
[04:27] <cwillu> no, that was for sugor :p
[04:27] <cwillu> sorry
[04:27] <cwillu> heyjoe2; does it work if you have it plugged in while you boot?
[04:27] <heyjoe2> no probs
[04:27] <heyjoe2> i dont know
[04:28] <heyjoe2> should i restart my computer and try?
[04:28] <cwillu> worth a shot
[04:28] <cwillu> detection works differently iirc at boot
[04:28] <heyjoe2> ok
[04:28] <heyjoe2> thanks
[04:28] <heyjoe2> ill give it a whirl

[04:32] <sugoruyo> cwillu, the latest error i've gotten from the install [but not with noapic -yet]  is the inability to put initrd-tools on the hdd or sth like that
[04:32] <edulix> johndarkhorse: now it seems that it's working, thanks for your help, bye!
[04:32] <ruzgar> HymnToLife can you write an example code?
[04:33] <trappist> HymnToLife: so I should be able to untar what that installs, cd into it and do a make-kpkg and end up with the same kernel I'm running?

[04:34] <heyjoe2> how do i get to synaptic
[04:34] <heyjoe2> ?
[04:34] <trappist> why are there not different packages to distinguish between, say, 2.6.15-15 and 2.6.15-17
[04:34] <HymnToLife> ruzgar> the man ln page is pretty clear I think
[04:34] <cwillu> system|admin|synaptic package manager
[04:34] <cwillu> or gksudo synaptic from run app
[04:34] <ruzgar> HymnToLife i dont understand very well from man page but i'll try thanks
[04:34] <HymnToLife> to creaty symlinks it's somethink like (sudo) ln-s /path/do/dir /parth/to/link
[04:35] <bipolar> am I not suposed to be able to use auto-apt search to find out what package provides a file? auto-apt search samba.schema.gz returns no results when I know for a fact it is installed. :\
[04:35] <ruzgar> ok thanks
[04:35] <johndarkhorse> ubotu: tell heyjoe2 about synaptic
[04:35] <HymnToLife> ln -s*
[04:36] <trappist> HymnToLife: yeah linux-source-* doesn't look like the package I'm looking for
[04:36] <HymnToLife> [16:34]  trappist why are there not different packages to distinguish between, say, 2.6.15-15 and 2.6.15-17 <= lhe lats Ubuntu patched kernel is 2.6.12-10 afaik
[04:36] <HymnToLife> latest*
[04:36] <cwillu> sugoruyo; nothing at that link!?
[04:36] <trappist> HymnToLife: ok those are dapper versions, but the same question with different digits applies to breezy.
[04:36] <sugoruyo> cwillu, the experts exchange one?
[04:36] <cwillu> yes
[04:37] <cwillu> (btw, do _not_ click the view solution button!)
[04:37] <HymnToLife> well I dunno
[04:37] <HymnToLife> never messed with the kernel since 2.4.27-3 on Debian :p
[04:37] <sugoruyo> cwillu, what should i do exactly?
[04:37] <trappist> HymnToLife: I'm beginning to suspect there is no answer.  /me files a bug report.
[04:38] <cwillu> scroll down
[04:38] <cwillu> what browser are you using?
[04:38] <heyjoe2> does synaptic have limewire?

[04:40] <dooglus> how do I see what's in my trash?  I got rid of the 'trash' icon from the panel
[04:40] <cwillu> ahh
[04:40] <cwillu> safari might be breaking the site
[04:40] <nickrud> dooglus: ~/.Trash
[04:40] <cwillu> do you have access to just about anything but safari?
[04:40] <cwillu> mozilla, firefox, seamonkey all work
[04:40] <dooglus> nickrud: I mean using nautilus
[04:40] <cwillu> i.e. works, but you probably don't have that
[04:40] <sugoruyo> opera shiira firefox explorer
[04:40] <cwillu> try firefox
[04:41] <cwillu> i.e., I'm looking at it in firefox
[04:41] <nickrud> dooglus: ctl-l , enter ~/.Trash (or, menu option show hidden files)
[04:41] <cwillu> note:  there's the question, then some advertising junk, and then a whole bunch of comments;  it's the comments I'm pointing you to
[04:41] <dooglus> nickrud: ok, thanks.  (and control-h toggles hidden files I think)
[04:41] <nickrud> dooglus: better: ctl-l trash://
[04:42] <ruzgar> how can i remove a shortcut link from my desktop in console mode ?
[04:42] <dooglus> nickrud: better stil:  ctl-l trash:

[04:42] <nickrud> yes!

[04:42] <dooglus> nickrud: unless you have a // key...
[04:42] <nickrud> oohh
[04:42] <sugoruyo> cwillu, now i see some comments...
[04:43] <cwillu> okay
[04:43] <cwillu> the accepted answer has a couple possibilities;  I believe there's one about ftp on windows
[04:43] <cwillu> which should be basically the same on a mac
[04:43] <dooglus> I'm having trouble trying to view remote windows shares
[04:43] <heyjoe2> im trying to run limewire but it wont open because its an rpm file. is opening it in synaptic an alternative possibility? or do i have to enable rpm files? if so, how do i do this?
[04:43] <dooglus> just now I was able to view a share using nautilus, but now it's asking me for a password.
[04:44] <exono_> hi
[04:44] <framirez> hi
[04:44] <dooglus> I didn't change anything, locally or remotely.  so why the change?
[04:44] <gnomefreak> !limewire
[04:44] <ubotu> first you need !java, then download the http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and unpack it. Then just run the runLime.sh file. Voila. Consider !frostwire as an alternative.
[04:44] <zAo^> who can help me with a internet radio station?
[04:44] <zAo^> I need to play "mmsh://"
[04:44] <heyjoe2> !java
[04:44] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[04:44] <framirez> i was wondering ... im tired of using kde... and i wanna move to gnome
[04:44] <framirez> how can i move from kubuntu to ubuntu
[04:44] <zAo^> !mmsh
[04:44] <ubotu> zAo^: parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[04:44] <framirez> ?
[04:45] <heyjoe2> what type of java should i get
[04:45] <sugoruyo> cwillu, i'm not really making much sense of it
[04:45] <heyjoe2> blackdown?
[04:45] <gnomefreak> heyjoe2: enable multiverse and use synaptic to grab blackdown
[04:45] <sugoruyo> cwillu, its a bunch of commands but where are those to be run?
[04:46] <heyjoe2> gnomefreak: how do i enable multiverse
[04:46] <HymnToLife> !terminal
[04:46] <heyjoe2> !terminal
[04:46] <sugoruyo> i mean the dpkg-... was my problem with the HOWTO as well
[04:46] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell heyjoe2 about multiverse
[04:46] <framirez> how can i move from kubuntu to ubuntu?
[04:46] <sugoruyo> cwillu, it's not possible to do that under windoze
[04:46] <HymnToLife> framirez> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[04:46] <framirez> thanks
[04:47] <cwillu> sugoruyo;  there's two options listed in that answer
[04:47] <zuyock> is there a native package for JBoss 4.
[04:47] <sugoruyo> cwillu, yeah now i got it
[04:48] <cwillu> :p
[04:48] <sugoruyo> cwillu, he talks either about setting up a repo or an ftp
[04:48] <cwillu> yes
[04:48] <sugoruyo> cwillu, so putting the contents of the cdrom under a dir  which is accessible via anynymous ftp
[04:48] <robertalexander> im trying to set my friend up with ubuntu. he's having trouble using gaim messenger to connect to msn. it says there's some kind of port block. does anyone have any ideas? he was able to connect to msn with windows messenger before
[04:48] <cwillu> sugoruyo; might do the trick
[04:49] <sugoruyo> cwillu, should allow me to install?
[04:49] <sugoruyo> cwillu, what about the can't put initrd-tools on target disk complaint?
[04:49] <HymnToLife> robertalexander> certainly some kind of router/firewall problem
[04:49] <ugha> exit
[04:50] <robertalexander> hymntolife, do you have any ideas how to sort it? he connects on a university campus network
[04:50] <HymnToLife> robertalexander> is it behind a proxy ?
[04:51] <robertalexander> i think so yes
[04:51] <HymnToLife> then configure GAIM to use the proxy :)
[04:51] <robertalexander> how do i do that?
[04:52] <[blah] > are there any good games for ubuntu?
[04:52] <cwillu> sugoruyo; don't know, could be the cd is bad (bad download, etc, check the md5 signatures), could be the hd actually is faulty, another bios issue, who knows
[04:52] <katie> why is it sound works great when booting to the ubuntu live cd but not when booting to my installed version?
[04:52] <babo> Hi guys, I need some info on the bash 'read' fucnction .. no there is no man page. And I can't seem to find any info on it
[04:52] <sugoruyo> hmmmm
[04:52] <Ng> babo: it'll be in the bash man page
[04:53] <Ng> albeit very hard to find because of its unhelpfully generic name
[04:53] <heyjoe2> which java package should i grab from synaptic for limewire?
[04:53] <gnomefreak> blackdown
[04:53] <heyjoe2> i cant find it
[04:53] <gnomefreak> heyjoe2: search for java it will be in that section
[04:53] <Lillismannen> #ubuntu.se
[04:53] <cwillu> I'd make sure the cd is good (md5 check it, don't just try another cd), see if the hd is good (can you install onto that hd in a different computer?), the various kernel flags
[04:54] <heyjoe2> theres java common?
[04:54] <gnomefreak> heyjoe2: yes
[04:54] <sugoruyo> cwillu, how can i check the md5 sigs of the disc?
[04:54] <Ng> babo: if you call up the bash man page and then type "/^SHELL BUILTIN COMMANDS" it'll skip to the right section, then you can do "/^ *read " to find the read command :)
[04:54] <heyjoe2> thanks
[04:54] <gnomefreak> heyjoe2: you will still need a java package i think
[04:54] <babo> Ng: thanks
[04:54] <heyjoe2> should i mark it for reinstallation
[04:54] <katie> can anyone explain why is it sound works great when booting to the ubuntu live cd but not when booting to my installed version?
[04:55] <gnomefreak> mark what for re-install?
[04:55] <heyjoe2> the java package
[04:55] <heyjoe2> thats the option i get
[04:55] <gnomefreak> j2re?
[04:55] <cwillu> sugor, two things
[04:55] <bipolar> anyone know how to create random ascii from the command line? /dev/random is binary, I need ascii.
[04:55] <cwillu> !md5
[04:55] <ubotu> it has been said that md5 is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VerifyIsoHowto
[04:55] <heyjoe2> javacommon
[04:55] <halpo> how do i get wlan work on ubuntu
[04:56] <gnomefreak> no just grab j2re1.4 blackdown now
[04:56] <[blah] > anybody know any good games for ubuntu?
[04:56] <gnomefreak> !games
[04:56] <ubotu> games is probably http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=5153 or http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Loki_Installers_for_Linux_Gamers  News http://www.linux-gamers.net/
[04:56] <cwillu> and people make very poor linux terminals
[04:56] <[blah] > thanks gnomefreak
[04:56] <heyjoe2> ah ok
[04:56] <cwillu> this means:  I can't, and won't try, to look every damn thing up for you (:))
[04:56] <heyjoe2> i didnt see that one initially. thanks
[04:57] <cwillu> even though that's exactly what I've been doing for the last 2 hours
[04:57] <Itze_> hey there. Can someone tell me, how i change my desktop from gnome to kde, after getting the kubuntu-desktop package via apt-get?
[04:57] <HymnToLife> Itze_> on the login screen
[04:57] <HymnToLife> you hae a Sessions thing, choose KDE
[04:57] <heyjoe2> !limewire
[04:57] <ubotu> first you need !java, then download the http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and unpack it. Then just run the runLime.sh file. Voila. Consider !frostwire as an alternative.
[04:57] <Itze_> ..ahhh. Thanks :)
[04:57] <halpo> how do i get wlan work on ubuntu
[04:58] <cwillu> please realize, I just spent _two_hours_ working for free
[04:58] <HymnToLife> !wireless
[04:58] <ubotu> methinks wireless is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards if it does not work out of the box https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper windows drivers
[04:58] <katie> anybody know how one might be able to rip sound settings from a live session?
[04:58] <cwillu> granted, I'm willingly procrastinating from other work... :p
[04:58] <tulio2> i have got windows and ubuntu installed
[04:58] <sugoruyo> cwillu, are you talking to me?
[04:58] <cwillu> yes :)
[04:58] <HymnToLife> katie> you mean rip a CD ?
[04:58] <jenda> hey, is there a way to minimise a full screen game and return to the desktop? NWN in particular. Something like what Alt Tab would do in *shudder* windows.
[04:58] <tulio2> i have got windows and ubuntu installed, but i installed ubuntu with no boot loader, because i want to create a floppy boot disk, how i do that ?
[04:59] <sugoruyo> cwillu, didn't really realize how time went by sorry :(
[04:59] <cwillu> lol
[04:59] <HymnToLife> jenda> tried Alt+Tab ?
[04:59] <cwillu> it happens
[04:59] <jenda> HymnToLife: yes, thank you very much :) It doesn't work.
[04:59] <sugoruyo> cwillu, it's just you're actually the only one who answered, noone else did
[04:59] <sugoruyo> cwillu, not even with a "dunno"
[04:59] <HymnToLife> I don't know then :/
[05:00] <heyjoe2> i just downloaded the zip file from http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and an error message saying  "an error occurred while loading the archive"
[05:00] <cwillu> sugoruyo; I mean more in terms of, when you don't quite understand the answer, do a mini research on it before you ask what I meant
[05:00] <heyjoe2> anything else i can do to get limewire to work
[05:00] <cwillu> that's why I was asking about your compentency before;  I was wondering at what point you'd be able to figure things out yourself :)
[05:00] <katie> i installed breezy ubuntu but can't get sound to work
[05:00] <katie> so i boot to a live cd and sound works great. wtf??
[05:01] <heyjoe2> !frostwire
[05:01] <ubotu> frostwire is probably a free peer-to-peer application that runs on the Gnutella network, which can be found at http://www.frostwire.com/
[05:01] <cwillu> sugoruyo; generally, the best you're gonna get off irc is a clue as to what direction you're going to be looking
[05:01] <katie> obviously my laptop's sound will work, how do i config the drivers?
[05:01] <sugoruyo> cwillu, well i'm working on three different machines at the same time :|
[05:01] <sugoruyo> cwillu, yeah i know it's just i'm not really having any luck with other stuff
[05:02] <sugoruyo> like that problem with initrd-tools
[05:02] <heyjoe2> limewire!
[05:02] <heyjoe2> !limewire
[05:02] <katie> HymnToLife: didn't notice i can't pm, doh!
[05:02] <ubotu> first you need !java, then download the http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and unpack it. Then just run the runLime.sh file. Voila. Consider !frostwire as an alternative.
[05:03] <katie> HymnToLife:  no, just rip the audio settings so i can get sound to work in normal ubuntu
[05:03] <HymnToLife> hmm dunnoare they any different ?
[05:03] <heyjoe2> i tried running the zip file from http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther but it didnt work. any ideas on how else to get limwire to work?
[05:04] <katie> i don't know. i'm rather lost unfortuneately and my bf is clueless :)
[05:04] <HymnToLife> !limewire
[05:04] <ubotu> first you need !java, then download the http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and unpack it. Then just run the runLime.sh file. Voila. Consider !frostwire as an alternative.
[05:04] <cwillu> sugoruyo; I've gotta get back to work now;  explore the ftp approach and see if that gets you any further
[05:04] <tushkee> heyjoe2: there's a wiki how to get it running, it's fairly easy.
[05:04] <sugoruyo> cwillu, i will thanx a whole lot....
[05:04] <heyjoe2> ok thank u
[05:04] <cwillu> np
[05:04] <HymnToLife> have you ran the sh file heyjoe2 ?
[05:04] <sugoruyo> cwillu, sorry for keepin ya
[05:04] <craigrse> hi i wonder if someone could kindly help me with a apache problem? I've installed ubuntu 3 times and each time, after awhile apache (through localhost), mysql and my access to another computer stop working. Something is being blocked, im not sure where to look
[05:05] <HymnToLife> craigrse> certainly the configuration of your router
[05:05] <trappist> craigrse: it would help if you could define "stop working"
[05:05] <HymnToLife> also check your server box if the apache daemon didn't die for some reason
[05:06] <craigrse> apache is running, im not sure about its the router, each time i install ubuntu it works fine for a couple of restarts then stops workings
[05:06] <craigrse> ie. cant connect
[05:06] <craigrse> to localhost
[05:06] <craigrse> obviously im installing stuff along the way
[05:07] <HymnToLife> it's a bad idea to run a server on a desktop
[05:07] <trappist> craigrse: sometimes when you restart apache, some running processes fail to be killed, and since they're still bound to port 80 it can't restart.  do an apache stop, check for running process, kill em if they're there, then apache start.
[05:08] <craigrse> ok trappist thanks ill try that
[05:08] <mylo> what would i need to add in the repos for source packages ?
[05:08] <trappist> there are lots of reasons to run apache on a desktop.  e.g. for development.
[05:08] <heyjoe2> the wiki info pack on limewire isnt working for me
[05:09] <josch> hi, is there a german ubuntu chatroom?
[05:09] <cwillu> hymn; not talking about a public server
[05:09] <[blah] > is there a way to have ubuntu automatically install dependencies for apps when I run ./configure?
[05:09] <trappist> josch: #ubuntu-de
[05:09] <josch> tnx
[05:09] <trappist> [blah] : no
[05:09] <heyjoe2> any alternative to starting limewire other than the one suggested on the wiki
[05:10] <sbalneav> [blah] : aptitutde show auto-apt
[05:10] <cwillu> hey, does the irc chat get logged anywhere?
[05:10] <aeolist> [blah] , if the package is in the repositories, you can try sudo apt-get build-dep [package]  but that requires the deb-src repositories on the sources.list
[05:10] <Marlun> Is there a nice alarm clock that you can get from the repositories?
[05:11] <HymnToLife> heyjoe2> why would you need it ? the one on the wiki works very well
[05:11] <craigrse> just thinking,  the big coincidence is that i cant connect to my other networked computer (when originally i could right after install), aswell as apache and mysql, also when i ping localhost nothing happens (although should it?)
[05:11] <HymnToLife> alternatively, you can just buy your CDs...
[05:11] <renewip> can I install Ubuntu i386 breezy on an AMD64 PC?
[05:11] <trappist> craigrse: run ifconfig and make sure lo exists and has ip <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:11] <trappist> craigrse: if not, sudo ifup lo
[05:11] <HymnToLife> renewip> of course
[05:12] <ufo> renewip: you can but there are some apps w
[05:12] <ufo> rem
[05:12] <ufo> n
[05:12] <ufo> :)
[05:12] <[blah] > aeolist, they are not dep-src :\
[05:12] <renewip> ufo: for example?
[05:12] <ufo> renewip: you can use win32codecs
[05:13] <ufo> cant
[05:13] <craigrse> sorry trappist im a bit of a newbie to linux, what should i see in ifconfig? and should sudo ifup lo return nothing?
[05:13] <^ac> plz help with sound!!!!!!!
[05:13] <^ac> SB 24 bit
[05:13] <trappist> craigrse: in ifconfig you should see an lo device, similar to eth0 etc. and if sudo ifup lo returns nothing, that's good.
[05:14] <^ac> sound no playing
[05:14] <HymnToLife> !sound
[05:14] <ubotu> methinks sound is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems or http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundProblemsHoary
[05:15] <craigrse> oh my god!!!!!! it works.. i love you.. what the hell.. unbridled overjoy.
[05:15] <craigrse> thank you so much
[05:15] <trappist> :)
[05:15] <confrey> ciao a uttti
[05:15] <craigrse> do you know what may have caused it? i think im repeating the same mistake on all three reinstalls
[05:16] <trappist> craigrse: I've noticed that when I reboot if my regular network device (eth0 in my case) fails to come up, lo doesn't come up either and I have to bring it up manually (with sudo ifup lo)
[05:16] <lillismannen> jag lade till ett nytt arkiv o s
[05:17] <HymnToLife> craigrse> it is already a big mistake
[05:17] <HymnToLife> to ru a web server on a desktop
[05:17] <HymnToLife> better use a dedicated box
[05:17] <trappist> HymnToLife: why
[05:17] <lillismannen> #ubuntu.se
[05:17] <HymnToLife> for security issues obviously
[05:17] <HymnToLife> and performance
[05:17] <HymnToLife> and also this kind of problems ;)
[05:18] <trappist> HymnToLife: I for one do development on my local box.  apache only listens on <IP_ADDRESS> so there's no real outside security risk, and if I'm worried about performance I'll just stop the webserver when I'm not using it.
[05:18] <cwillu> HymnToLife; that's simply not the case for private stuff
[05:18] <cwillu> it's not a public server he's talking about
[05:18] <HymnToLife> for developpement yes
[05:18] <cwillu> hell, that's how 'x' works
[05:18] <cwillu> local server :)
[05:18] <HymnToLife> not for production
[05:18] <cwillu> yes!
[05:18] <trappist> of course not for production
[05:19] <craigrse> trappist: interesting cause i've been commenting out the auto stuff in /etc/network/interfaces because it would hang at boot
[05:19] <HymnToLife> ok, forget what I said :p
[05:19] <trappist> craigrse: well that's why, then.  at least uncomment lo
[05:19] <confrey> can anybody use x11vnc? I'm trying to strat server, but it can't connect to Xserver
[05:20] <trappist> craigrse: if the other stuff is hanging at boot, find out why and fix it.
[05:20] <ubuntu_> testing
[05:20] <trappist> craigrse: it'll usually be because you said dhcp and don't have a dhcp server, or something like that.
[05:20] <adfs> can I send somebody a PRIVATE IM message & he responds?
[05:21] <adfs> can anybody help on this?
[05:21] <trappist> adfs: /msg ubotu hello
[05:21] <Xappe> i'm trying to compile guifications 2.13beta2 on breezy, but i'm stuck with errors during "make". Suggestions? http://pastebin.com/587115
[05:21] <tulio2> i have got windows and ubuntu installed, but i installed ubuntu with no boot loader, because i want to create a floppy boot disk, how i do that ?
[05:21] <gnomefreak> anyone know what the right click menu for fluxbox is called?
[05:22] <craigrse> trappist: thanks for all of this, i will look into the hanging issue. i am truely in your debt
[05:22] <cwillu> send cheques to... :p
[05:22] <asad2005> I have a problem with my PCIE NVIDIA Corporation NV43 [GeForce 6600?]  does any one have a working xorg.conf I had to use vesa driver to get to work
[05:22] <Frogzoo> tulio2: grub-floppy
[05:23] <craigrse> cwillu: (:
[05:23] <halpo> how do i know wich wlan drivers works in my computer
[05:23] <mcf501> hey, still cannot get opengl to work, can anyone help me with this error? prac6.c:16:19: error: GL/gl.h: No such file or directory
[05:23] <mcf501> prac6.c:17:20: error: GL/glu.h: No such file or directory
[05:23] <mcf501> prac6.c:18:21: error: GL/glut.h: No such file or directory
[05:23] <trappist> asad2005: you should be able to make a working config by running sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:23] <Frogzoo> halpo: lspci & figure out what your wifi card is - then find a driver
[05:24] <trappist> mcf501: sudo apt-get install libglu1-mesa-dev
[05:24] <asad2005> trappist, Thanks I did same problem even with breezy live cd
[05:24] <trappist> mcf501: and libgl1-mesa-dev
[05:24] <mcf501> trappist: thanks will try that now
[05:25] <trappist> mcf501: unless you have an nvidia card, in which case nvidia-glx-dev
[05:25] <visik7> is there a program like virtualdub ?
[05:25] <Sanne> Xappe, looks like an error specific to that program code. If there's a amiling list or irc channel for that program, you should get better replies if you ask there, I think.
[05:26] <dyggMerald> anyone else having a bad experience with "evince"
[05:26] <dyggMerald> its real crappy
[05:27] <engla> I like evince for the most part
[05:27] <mylo> dyggMerald, why is that ?
[05:27] <engla> some redraw problems though
[05:27] <mcf501> trappist: i have an ati, and installing the dev files has removed alot of errors, but i still have some GLUT errors, 'GLUT_DOUBLE undeclared (first use in this function)
[05:27] <mylo> i prefer evince than xpdf, ggv or other
[05:28] <mylo> mcf501, have you install gl lib ?
[05:28] <ObiWantKannabis> hi
[05:28] <dyggMerald> mylo: using breezy evince rarely lasts more than 5 minutes.. and you can make it crash in much less if you push it
[05:29] <craigrse> hmm for some reason i can't edit menu items in the top gnome menu, this is after running automatix... it says its starting but nothing happens after that, has anyone else come across this?
[05:29] <ObiWantKannabis> sudo mount jdk-1_5_0_06-linux-i586-rpm.bin /home/pedro/Desktop/java/
[05:29] <ObiWantKannabis>  ---- what miss here or how can i do this ??
[05:29] <Xappe> Sanne: mhm, i'll try the sourceforge forums...
[05:29] <dyggMerald> mylo: graphical interface and looks arent bad.. stability is ridiculous
[05:29] <gnomefreak> ObiWantKannabis: why did you get the rpm?
[05:29] <stpeter> how can i extract from a tar archive only files in /bin?
[05:29] <Sanne> Xappe, yes, seems like a ggod idea, good luck :)
[05:29] <gnomefreak> ubuntu doesnt use rpms
[05:30] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell ObiWantKannabis about javadebs
[05:30] <Xappe> Sanne: thanks :)
[05:30] <sbalneav> dyggMerald: is this on a particular .pdf file, or in general?  I've been using it quite a bit, and it's worked fine for me.
[05:30] <ObiWantKannabis> gnomefreak,  should i get the other one? was 2 options and i optioned by one
[05:30] <mylo> dyggMerald, i just realized i didn't install evince in this machine
[05:30] <ObiWantKannabis> lol
[05:31] <gnomefreak> ObiWantKannabis: yes you dont want to use rpms on ubuntu (more trouble than its worth
[05:31] <ObiWantKannabis> oh ok
[05:31] <ObiWantKannabis> thanks
[05:31] <dyggMerald> sbalneav: in general
[05:31] <mylo> where can i find ubuntu-version ?
[05:31] <mylo> there only /etc/debian_version
[05:31] <gnomefreak> !version
[05:31] <ubotu> [version]  'lsb_release -a' or 'cat /etc/issue'
[05:32] <GTX> Where can I findout what starts on startup
[05:32] <Ng> GTX: /etc/rcS.d/ and then /etc/rc2.d/
[05:32] <mylo> gnomefreak, hmm okay thanks, so it's in issue
[05:32] <pedrocr> server irc.debian.org
[05:33] <sbalneav> dyggMerald: Odd.  Might be worth everyone's while to file a bug report.  I'd also (if you can) attach a pdf that gives you particular trouble.

[05:53] <tomas__> is there anyone that has got vloopback working?
[05:53] <lesshaste>  how do i distinguish between man 5 resolver  and man 3 resolver  with info ?
[05:53] <phisrow> I've a question about X11 in Ubuntu. I recently set up a Debian server(headless) with the intention of SSHing in from my Ubuntu laptop and running X apps over the SSH tunnel. SSH is working fine, and I've done the export DISPLAY=<relevant IP>:0 on the debian box and the xhost+<relevant IP> on the Ubuntu machine. Despite that, I'm getting "cannot open display" Is there anything besides the xhost setting that might be doing acce
[05:54] <trappist> lesshaste: I'm pretty sure you don't
[05:54] <nickrud> lesshaste: man 5 is for configuration files; man 3 is programming interfaces, I think
[05:54] <Ng> phisrow: run sudo gdmconfig and tell it to listen on a tcp port, or you could tunnel the X stuff over ssh
[05:54] <lucasvo_> anybody know the userpassword from ubuntu on the virtual machine?
[05:54] <lesshaste> nickrud, sure but info gives you man pages if the info page isn't there... but it seems to choose one of them for you
[05:54] <trappist> phisrow: use ssh -X instead of doing all that.  X starts with 'nolisten tcp' on debian and ubuntu, so that way won't work
[05:54] <lesshaste> nickrud, can't see how to do info 5 resolver for example
[05:55] <nickrud> lesshaste: man 5 resolver
[05:55] <ProN00b> i need a desktop magnifier
[05:55] <phisrow> Many thanks, Trappist and Ng.
[05:55] <nickrud> lesshaste: info, I never used that much
[05:55] <lesshaste> nickrud, sure but that means you have to use man which is a pain as man pages are deprecated in gnu tools
[05:55] <trappist> lesshaste: info pages aren't man pages, and I don't think they're broken down that way - or at all.
[05:55] <Ng> phisrow: gnome-mag :)
[05:55] <[blah] > so I installed freeciv via ./configure + make, now how do I know what the command to run it is?
[05:55] <HymnToLife> tried freeciv ?
[05:55] <nickrud> lesshaste: but prefered in ubuntu, man pages are required by policy
[05:56] <bjorn_> Dr_Willis: (this is ayako_) that didn't work
[05:56] <lesshaste> trappist, sure but "info" reads the man pages if there aren't any info pages
[05:56] <trappist> phisrow: for better performance, ssh -X -c blowfish
[05:56] <lesshaste> nickrud, well.. for gnu tools they are deprecated so unless ubuntu people are writing them...
[05:56] <nickrud> lesshaste: yes, it's part of package maintenance
[05:56] <bjorn_> Dr_Willis: I noticed that the account that wont start gnome is missing the .gnome file
[05:56] <lesshaste> nickrud, interesting...
[05:57] <trappist> [blah] : freeciv is available as a package.  why build from source?
[05:58] <[blah] > because the forum i found it on said it wasnt :S
[05:58] <phisrow> Hmm. I'm still getting the same behavior.
[05:58] <[blah] > trappist, can I uninstall it from source?
[05:58] <[blah] > uninstalling
[05:58] <trappist> [blah] : if the Makefile supports it.  try 'make uninstall'
[05:58] <[blah] > just did
[05:59] <ProN00b> i installed gnome-mag, how can i launch it ?
[05:59] <nickrud> lesshaste: http://qa.debian.org/man-pages.html (as far as I know, ubuntu follows this)
[06:00] <trappist> ProN00b: dpkg -L gnome-mag | grep bin to see what executables are installed
[06:01] <southern> hi all
[06:01] <southern> I've got problem with dyndns under breezy
[06:01] <southern> it doesn't update automatically
[06:01] <stardust> Hey. I need a HOWTO to install my ASUS WL-167G USB2.0 Wireless Adapter
[06:01] <nickrud> southern: ddclient?
[06:02] <visik7> stardust: lsusb ?
[06:02] <[blah] > trappist, I downloaded the .deb file how do i install it (sudo apt-????  file )??
[06:02] <stardust> Can i install that?
[06:02] <southern> nickrud: no, I followed the official ubuntu dyndns howto
[06:02] <gnomefreak> [blah] : sudo dpkg -i file.deb
[06:02] <trappist> [blah] : don't download it.  just sudo apt-get install freeciv
[06:02] <southern> my crontab is OK
[06:03] <[blah] > why do I do things the hardware...
[06:03] <southern> other jobs run periodically but dyndns no :(((
[06:03] <nickrud> southern: what howto?
[06:05] <stardust> lsusb gives me: Bus 004 Device 003: ID 0b05:1706 ASUSTek Computer, Inc.
[06:05] <Itze_> hey. When an application doesnt start, but just loads and loads and then....just doesnt start, is there a way to find out whats wrong?
[06:05] <Itze_> i started azureus and it updated
[06:05] <Itze_> and then one more time after a restart
[06:05] <alteroo> hey
[06:06] <Itze_> but then, it just wouldnt run again
[06:06] <alteroo>  what's the name of the package for the nvidia 3d acceleration driver
[06:06] <alteroo> ?
[06:06] <HymnToLife> !nvidia
[06:06] <ubotu> I heard nvidia is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[06:06] <stardust> And how do i make sure it have my USB card working?
[06:07] <gnomefreak> alteroo: depends on the card
[06:07] <kristof> does anyone know where I can find a driver for a hp deskjet 6122?
[06:07] <alteroo> HymnToLife: thanks
[06:07] <gnomefreak> all need nvidia-settings
[06:07] <gnomefreak> unless runnning dapper :)
[06:07] <moyogo> this is really strange, i can't do apt-get upgrade in gnome-terminal but it works in xterm
[06:07] <nickrud> southern: simplest method is to install ddclient, fill in the blanks, and edit /etc/default/ddclient for run_daemon true
[06:07] <Ng> moyogo: what happens in gnome-terminal?
[06:07] <ProN00b> gnome-mag doesn't work, is there an other magnifier i could try ?
[06:08] <alteroo> gnomefreak: I am running dapper :-)
[06:08] <moyogo> Ng: connection timeout
[06:08] <daN^^> how do i change the background color behind the gnome services are loading bar that shows when gnome starts?
[06:08] <gnomefreak> alteroo: than you should ask your questions in #ubuntu+1
[06:08] <HymnToLife> moyogo> are you behind a proxy ?
[06:08] <Ng> moyogo: that is kinda weird
[06:08] <alteroo> gnomefreak: oh... ok
[06:08] <southern> nickrud: I followed this: http://www.hup.hu/wiki/index.php/Ubuntu_Breezy_Kalauz#Hogyan_.C3.A1ll.C3.ADthatok_be_automatikus_DynDNS_szolg.C3.A1ltat.C3.A1st.3F
[06:08] <rysiek|pl> ProN00b: gimme a sec
[06:09] <stardust> I found my card with lsusb but how to make it work?
[06:09] <tonyyarusso> Could someone explain festival syntax to me?  I just want to mess around with it to check it out, but I don't know how it works.
[06:09] <moyogo> Ng: oh, that's it, i left the proxy config thingy on :/
[06:09] <alteroo> gnomefreak: is there a new driver are something? nvidia-glx doesnt work?... its working here... I just wanted to know the name of the package...  I've installed all the packages and still no dice
[06:10] <Ng> ProN00b: I think you also want to install gnopernicus and then enable it from the Assistive Technologies gnome preference item
[06:10] <mcf501> !executable
[06:10] <ubotu> mcf501: Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:11] <ProN00b> Ng
[06:11] <southern> nickrud: I have question
[06:11] <zulfiqar> anyone having probl;ems with Automatix?
[06:11] <HymnToLife> lint > which plugin ?
[06:11] <LjL> !automatix
[06:11] <ubotu> automatix is unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'ynYn'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, but it's often best to read the documentation. (see !easyubuntu)
[06:11] <Amaranth> lint: You have totem-xine and the totem firefox plugin?
[06:11] <nickrud> southern: I'm not familar with ipcheck, so I'm not sure how it works, and, additionally, I don't read polish
[06:11] <lint> Amaranth: no i did it the mplayer route
[06:11] <Amaranth> lint: ick
[06:11] <lint> Do you suggest totem instead?
[06:11] <ProN00b> ok, Ng, thanks
[06:11] <southern> nickrud: I'm using adsl...
[06:11] <Amaranth> lint: I don't think the mplayer plugin in breezy has a UI of any kind
[06:12] <lint> nope
[06:12] <lint> haha
[06:12] <Amaranth> lint: it just plays, you have no control
[06:12] <rysiek|pl> southern: I read Polish, what's the problem?
[06:12] <southern> "Interface used for dynamic DNS service" : ppp0?
[06:12] <HymnToLife> Amaranth> there _is_ a mplayer GUI
[06:12] <lint> i'll try totem then
[06:12] <HymnToLife> I don't find it nice though, VLC all the way for me :p
[06:12] <pavier> salu les pd
[06:12] <Amaranth> HymnToLife: I know, but not in the mozilla plugin in breezy.
[06:12] <HymnToLife> !ops
[06:12] <ubotu> Help! lilo, fabbione, lamont, Keybuk, jdub, mdz, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot or ompaul
[06:12] <nickrud> southern: if you're using ppp over ethernet, yes
[06:12] <LjL> ?
[06:12] <southern> thanks
[06:12] <pavier> you fuck my wife motherfucker ?
[06:12] <Amaranth> HymnToLife: What do you need an op for?
[06:13] <HymnToLife> [18:12]  pavier salu les pd <= "pd" means gay :/
[06:13] <LjL> oh
[06:13] <HymnToLife> guess it's the same guy
[06:13] <southern> done with setup
[06:13] <nickrud> southern: try ddclient, it's a well made package.
[06:13] <southern> yes I've done with setup and config...
[06:13] <frank23> lint: instead of dealing with those firefox plugins, I just use the mediaplayerconnectivity extension, everything plays in a external media player of your choice
[06:13] <lint> frank: ah, good call
[06:13] <aridese> hi guys when does dapper come out? april?
[06:13] <asterisk99> Help!!! I was cleaning up ... well... don't ask... I deleted my home directory (yeah... I know dumb!!!!) --- I've added it back and set chmod and chown, but.... I cannot launch Terminal, get to my Desktop Folder... arrrrgggg!!!!!!!!!   Any advice? (other than don't do that!!)
[06:13] <lint> Yeah i can't use totem anyway because i'm in KDE
[06:13] <Ng> yes
[06:13] <tonyyarusso> aridese: April 20th.
[06:13] <southern> it says: * dynamic DNS service update utility not in use"
[06:13] <Amaranth> april 4th, i think
[06:14] <Amaranth> oh
[06:14] <aridese> lol, april 4th is my birthdya
[06:14] <Amaranth> lint: Sure you can
[06:14] <southern> do I have to do anything else??
[06:14] <lint> Amaranth: Adept claims its for GNOME
[06:14] <johndarkhorse> i love a parade
[06:14] <Amaranth> lint: It is, but you can use it anywhere.
[06:15] <nickrud> southern: don't forget /etc/default/ddclient, then sudo invoke-rc.d ddclient restart
[06:15] <tonyyarusso> frank23: Does that actually work for you?  I tried that extension once (a while ago) and had some issues with it.
[06:15] <southern> ok thank you
[06:15] <LinuxIdiot> hi im stuck on installing sagem f@st 800 modem on ubuntu 5.10
[06:15] <frank23> tonyyarusso: I found it to work very well. once in a while you have to do a reload to see it but that's it
[06:16] <Ng> tonyyarusso: works here :)
[06:16] <tonyyarusso> asterisk99: I don't know if there's a 'correct' way to handle that, but presumably you no longer have any data anyway, so I personally would try deleting it again, deleting the user, and adding the user back.
[06:16] <zulfiqar> anyone having problems with Automatix?
[06:17] <lint> installed totem and still no dice
[06:17] <LjL> ubotu, tell zulfiqar about automatix
[06:17] <Ng> asterisk99: you might want to copy things from /etc/skel/ to your home directory too
[06:17] <lint> i can't even get flash to work
[06:17] <mcf501> hey how do you configure your console so you can open executables by just typing their names?
[06:17] <tonyyarusso> frank23, Ng: All right, maybe it's improved.  Stuff seems to do that over the course of a year or more!
[06:17] <LjL> mcf501: that's considered a security risk. you can already "just type the name" of programs that have been installed, and for programs in your current dir, just type ./ before the name
[06:18] <Itze_> hey, could anybody help me here. My azureus doesnt start anymore... is there a way to run any diagnostic on it to find out whats wrong?
[06:18] <edward0> lint: there is an mplayer mozilla plugin I think
[06:18] <gnomefreak> mcf501: what type of file
[06:18] <airjump> hello
[06:18] <lint> edward: have that installed already
[06:18] <lint> I even have both versions installed
[06:18] <gnomefreak> mcf501: you would need to write a script for that to happen please refer to the abs guide in synaptic
[06:18] <mcf501> well, they are just application/x-executable im doing some opengl projects
[06:19] <LjL> why a script?
[06:19] <zulfiqar> how do i install wmv codecs?
[06:19] <lint> I've got flashplayer-mozilla installed and I have flashplugin-nonfree installed
[06:19] <LjL> ubotu, tell zulfiqar about wmv
[06:19] <airjump> one question dashboard function like the same in MAC OS X in UBUNTU?
[06:19] <mcf501> ./ works fine thanks
[06:19] <gnomefreak> LjL: depends what it is
[06:19] <edward0> lint: that is flash
[06:19] <gnomefreak> as i said above
[06:19] <asterisk99> tonyyarusso: I sudo'ed as root now (thank god)... you think I can simply deluser and adduser again?  What about all my permissions (is: sudo, etc.)
[06:19] <tonyyarusso> Would there be any way to get information from the wiki (paused to be static, b/c otherwise surely this would be too complicated) into something resembling the Gnome help (yelp), such that users could access it offline?
[06:20] <lint> edward: ?
[06:20] <edward0> lint: what type of video are you trying to view?
[06:20] <lint> for example nba.com
[06:20] <LjL> tonyyarusso: couldn't you just mirror the wiki? not sure how big it is
[06:20] <xoz> is the sensor module working in G4 ppc?
[06:20] <lint> i get a message saying flash 5 is needed near the top bar
[06:20] <asterisk99> Ng: directory /etc/skel is empty
[06:20] <lint> "You need Flash 5 to run this application."
[06:20] <tonyyarusso> asterisk99: Oh right...  Um, I'm not sure what would happen with sudo.  If you had root enabled it would be simple, but that's not how Ubuntu's set up, so I'm really not sure.  Sudo expertise anyone?
[06:21] <Ng> asterisk99: ls -A /etc/skel :)
[06:21] <tonyyarusso> LjL: Maybe?  What would be the most efficient means for doing so do you think?
[06:21] <LjL> asterisk99: is that your primary user? the only one with sudo access?
[06:21] <lint> If you fix this for me edward, i'll love you forever
[06:21] <tonyyarusso> Anyone know/know how to find out the total size of the wiki?
[06:21] <zulfiqar> how can i make a script files with multiple apt-get comands and run it once?
[06:21] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell lint about flash
[06:21] <LjL> tonyyarusso: i would just run wget.   "wget --mirror https://wiki.ubuntu.com" or perhaps something slightly smarter
[06:22] <tonyyarusso> asterisk99: You could set up another user with sudo access first otherwise.
[06:22] <Emperor> if you want root enabled, you could use sudo, or give root a password with the following command "sudo passwd root"
[06:22] <gnomefreak> zulfiqar: check the abs guide in synaptic
[06:22] <edward0> lint: you can run firefox and in the location bar type about:plugins that will show you all loaded plugins
[06:22] <tonyyarusso> LjL: It's the slightly smarter part I would be wondering what it would be.
[06:22] <LjL> zulfiqar: if you mean for running "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade", you'll be better off with an alias than a script, probably
[06:22] <chell> Hi
[06:22] <asterisk99> LjL: admittedly, yes. That's my primary user.
[06:22] <lint> Although i do appreciate the autobot answer gnomefreak; i've already done all that
[06:22] <LjL> asterisk99: i wouldn't delete it
[06:23] <LjL> asterisk99: what happened exactly? i didn't follow from the beginning
[06:23] <LinuxIdiot> does anyone have a sagem f@st modem working well under ubuntu??
[06:23] <lint> edward: interesting, it lists no plugins
[06:23] <zulfiqar> LjL, how do i create an alias?
[06:23] <LjL> tonyyarusso: well, not sure. best is to try i guess, i'll give it a try myself
[06:23] <zulfiqar> is there a howto or help file out there?
[06:23] <tonyyarusso> LjL: All right!   I was testing an install script that creates a new group, user, and loads files into /home/testuser/ yada yada yada
[06:24] <LjL> tonyyarusso: perhaps you could wait for me to try - i've got 10mbps
[06:24] <tonyyarusso> LjL: I think I will, thanks.
[06:24] <asterisk99> LjL: I wanted to test it again to make sure that I preoperly created all the correct files but wanted to clean up before
[06:24] <zulfiqar> johndarkhorse, "man alias" says no command found
[06:24] <edward0> lint: you installed the gpl flash player?
[06:25] <johndarkhorse> zulfiqar: join us in #ubuntu-offtopic and we can explain it to ya
[06:25] <asterisk99> LjL: So Mr. Dumb-ass here types in (as root) rm -r /home/ instead of rm -r /home/testuser
[06:25] <LjL> asterisk99: oh :)
[06:25] <chell> I'd really like to do my ubuntu fresh install now. Unfortunately, I've got to wait till wednesday :-(
[06:25] <asterisk99> LjL: As Homer Simpson would say ... DOOOOHHHHHH
[06:25] <lint> edward: i believe so..
[06:26] <LjL> asterisk99: well your files are gone anyway, correct?
[06:26] <brian_> unbutu is pretty sweet heh.  damn
[06:26] <lint> whats the package name?
[06:26] <brian_> ubuntu*
[06:26] <chell> yeah I love it
[06:26] <tonyyarusso> erez: /set term_charset utf-8
[06:26] <brian_> i usually run openbsd, but i like this linux distrobution
[06:26] <erez> tonyyarusso: thanks
[06:26] <asterisk99> LjL: Ooooo Baby. Yes. I created a new /home/me  (me = my master user)
[06:27] <LjL> asterisk99: well i don't think you'd really need to remove/readd the user... i suppose your worry is that you don't have any configuration files in your new home, right?
[06:27] <asterisk99> LjL: Then added /home/me/Desktop ... set up permissions and ownership
[06:27] <asterisk99> LjL: The user cannot do anything ... can't access any of the System apps

[06:28] <chell> A question: Does ubuntu have support for different english"es" (like UK, AUS, US...) or just US?
[06:28] <brian_> wow, i pasted it wrong LOL, that's a first.
[06:28] <HymnToLife> asterisk99> what's the problem ?
[06:28] <HymnToLife> add the user to the admin groop as root
[06:28] <LjL> asterisk99: no need to reinstall
[06:28] <HymnToLife> ant it will be able to use sudo
[06:29] <LjL> asterisk99: you can always boot into rescue mode even if you lose root priviledges
[06:29] <LjL> asterisk99: so i guess you could try that, even though i'm quite sure there has to be a safer way
[06:29] <lint> Fun, adept just crashed
[06:30] <edward0> lint: lol
[06:30] <tonyyarusso> LjL: Can you tell overall progress with the wiki with wget like that, or just for the current file?
[06:30] <darkstar_> g'night people ...
[06:30] <edward0> lint: download the linux flash player from macromedia and install it?
[06:30] <asterisk99> LjL: Yeah .... true .... I've been programming since 1967 --- this isn't the forst dumb-ass mistake I've made [I once melted $40,000 worth of core memory on an IBM /360]
[06:30] <chell> good day darkstar_ ;-)
[06:31] <engla> asterisk99: cool! :-)
[06:31] <tonyyarusso> asterisk99: That's gotta hurt.    Toroids on wires are pretty :)
[06:31] <LjL> tonyyarusso: it was going, but i stopped it because i realized html links wouldn't work - found out you'll need the "--convert-links" option
[06:32] <tonyyarusso> LjL: Okay.  Do you know yet what the total size would be?
[06:32] <LjL> tonyyarusso: not really, that will only be known when it's finished ;)
[06:32] <chell> Any idea on the dapper drake release date?
[06:33] <tonyyarusso> LjL: Hmm.  I wish there was a way to check, but short of e-mailing an admin, dunno.
[06:33] <LjL> tonyyarusso: though, there is still something wrong with links even with that option
[06:33] <tonyyarusso> chell: April 20th.
[06:33] <zulfiqar> how to install a deb package?
[06:33] <LjL> tonyyarusso: don't think there is one
[06:33] <chell> So long to go :-(
[06:33] <tonyyarusso> !deb
[06:33] <ubotu> To install a .deb file: sudo dpkg -i filename.deb  (but note that the program you want might be installable using !apt from the !repos)
[06:33] <lnx_> anyone know how to chane the XMMS icon in the panel?
[06:33] <tonyyarusso> LjL: Do you know what's wrong with the links?
[06:33] <tonyyarusso> lnx_: Right click > Properties > Icon.
[06:34] <roccociro> ciao
[06:34] <roccociro> sono gomez
[06:34] <chell> Is it possible to upgrade from one flight cd to another and then to the final version of dapper?

[06:34] <roccociro> ciao raga
[06:34] <asterisk99> nickrud/tonyandrusso: Yup that hurt. It was in college (almost got turfed, but my marks were A+  --- phewwww!)
[06:34] <roccociro> sono gomez
[06:34] <tonyyarusso> lnx_: The icon in the panel.
[06:34] <tonyyarusso> asterisk99: Oh man...
[06:34] <tushkee> hey guys, im trying to setup VNC thru SSH
[06:35] <lint> edward: i love you so much
[06:35] <lint> flash is now working
[06:35] <LjL> tonyyarusso: maybe nothing is wrong. i seem to understand from the man pages that the links will get fixed when the corresponding page is downloaded, so i guess links that are wrong have simply not been downloaded yet
[06:35] <tushkee> i just installed vncviewer v.4+ and the -via switch is gone
[06:35] <tonyyarusso> LjL: That sounds like it makes sense.
[06:35] <lnx_> tonyyarusso, i mean the icon when the application is actually running
[06:35] <lint> now to get streaming video in firefox working
[06:35] <asterisk99> nickrud/tonyandrusso: It's what happened if you try to IPL (boot) a /360 mainframe with the disk drive powered down ---- you'd think IBM would have tested this, but noooooooooooooo.....  (they covered it under warranty)
[06:35] <tushkee> what's the switch to direct VNC thru SSH?
[06:35] <tonyyarusso> lnx_: Oh...not sure about that one.
[06:36] <nickrud> asterisk99: your very first destructive testing, I take it
[06:36] <LjL> tonyyarusso: (though i actually mean to say they're currently *wrong*, not just that i get a "not found" 'cause they haven't been downloaded ;)
[06:36] <tonyyarusso> LjL: What kind of wrong?  (ex.?)
[06:36] <dooglus> tushkee: which connected using ssh, type ~C to get a special prompt from ssh, then type -L localhost:5901:localhost:5900
[06:37] <chell> cya
[06:37] <LjL> tonyyarusso:   like,  file://blah, with no path. instead, they're supposed to be converted to relative links that will work from any path. let's see
[06:37] <dooglus> tushkee: (to request that port 5901 on the local host should be forwarded to port 5900 on the remote host)
[06:37] <asterisk99> nickrud: hahahaha   yes .... very!!!!   better than one of the operators at Control Data who had a head crash on a removable disk pack, removed the pack, and tried it on 8 other disk units.... transferring metal oxide bits to every obne of the drives (thus, ruining them)
[06:37] <LjL> tonyyarusso: actually, not with no path -- with a root path. like file:///blah
[06:37] <dooglus> tushkee: then connect using vncviewer: vncviewer localhost:1
[06:38] <LjL> tonyyarusso: and they appear to not work even after the corresponding file has been downloaded, either :\  though the man page seemed to make it pretty clear that "--convert-links" was the right option to use
[06:38] <tonyyarusso> LjL: Got it.
[06:38] <nickrud> asterisk99: heh
[06:38] <Deft> hi, is there anyone here who can tell me what's happening in the build queue with sound-juicer?
[06:38] <joaolesi> hi
[06:38] <LjL> tonyyarusso: i suppose, in the worst case, they could be fixed manually with a giant "sed" command =)

[06:39] <napsy> I have a problem with xwidcap. When I record all went fine. But when I playback the movie (mpeg4) the movie is way too fast. What's wrong?
[06:39] <tushkee> dooglus: im gonna try that now, thx
[06:40] <HymnToLife> joaolesi> unplug all USB devices when boting
[06:40] <tulio2> how ?
[06:40] <dooglus> tushkee: I'm assuming you already have a VNC server running on the remote host, listening on port 5900
[06:40] <joaolesi> yeah but this in a laptop, no connections...
[06:40] <joaolesi> i don't really know what to do
[06:40] <HymnToLife> hmm that's funny

[06:40] <LjL> tonyyarusso: would be something like    find /directory -name "*.htm*" -exec sed "s/a href=\"\//a href=\"" \;
[06:40] <LjL> tonyyarusso: hope it won't really come to this ;)
[06:40] <joaolesi> i made this post but was no help ...
[06:40] <maxtor> hello helpmeeeeeeeee
[06:41] <tonyyarusso> LjL: I'm writing it down anyway though.
[06:41] <tushkee> dooglus: it's all set, i can connect just fine, but not via SSH
[06:41] <tulio2> :p
[06:41] <tulio2> :D
[06:41] <tulio2> :)
[06:41] <LjL> tonyyarusso: no need, i don't think it will work. i'm not the kind of guy who can write working sed commands without trying them first :)

[06:42] <lint> odd, i just relogged in and i tried installing a package and it claimed that something else was using the process
[06:42] <LinuxJones> maxtor: dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

[06:44] <nickrud> joaolesi: you may need to boot a rescue disk, and edit the blacklist that way. Not the best answer, but hardware is hard sometimes
[06:45] <dooglus> tushkee: hit return in ssh, then ~ then C straight away.  no backspacing, etc.
[06:45] <LinuxJones> maxtor: what do you mean configure your video card ?
[06:45] <tonyyarusso> LjL: Some of these should be launchpad profiles, not wiki pages.
[06:45] <lint> anyone?
[06:45] <gnomefreak> maxtor: sorry i never heard of that :(
[06:45] <dooglus> tushkee: and make sure it's a capital C

[06:47] <sveri> hi, i have a computer with onboard nic, i can ping my own nic (<IP_ADDRESS>) but no other in my network, gateway and subnet ist set correctly, does somebody have an idea what the problem could be?
[06:47] <dooglus> tushkee: now you should be able to run "vncviewer localhost:1" on your local machine (not in ssh) to connect
[06:47] <nickrud> joaolesi: download damn small linux (find it on distrowatch.com) and burn it as a CD
[06:48] <tushkee> dooglus: k, ill try it now
[06:48] <nickrud> joaolesi: if you have a high speed net, download the ubuntu live cd. dsl is 50M, ubuntu live is >600M
[06:48] <engla> X is gathering memory again. Uses 362M resident memory  (14M shared), and sysprofiler tells me 350M of that is from [heap] . I really want to find the offender
[06:48] <tulio2> http://img400.imageshack.us/img400/4568/screenshot0sk.png *** where is the ubuntu partition ? :S
[06:48] <dooglus> tushkee: if you hit return in the ssh window you should get a shell prompt.
[06:48] <maxtor> my kernel is <IP_ADDRESS>-686
[06:49] <LjL> tonyyarusso: ouch - i think i know what's wrong with the links
[06:49] <dooglus> tushkee: but you want to run vncviewer on your local machine, not in the ssh window
[06:49] <HymnToLife> wow that's old maxtor
[06:49] <LjL> tonyyarusso: wiki links don't have a .html extension, so wget ignores them =) there's an option for that though
[06:49] <tonyyarusso> LjL: And what's that?
[06:49] <asterisk99> nickrud: This is pretty kewl.... My user id looked quite broken... I logged of to get ready for the Rescue boot, but tried to log back in again... linux repaired itself... happy camper time :)
[06:49] <engla> (well actually, that's 350M from WM that is on heap. it still is a lot though). I don'
[06:49] <HymnToLife> are you running hoary ?
[06:49] <maxtor> an how to upgrade it
[06:49] <tonyyarusso> LjL: Do you remember the option?
[06:49] <maxtor> ?
[06:49] <maxtor> yes

[06:49] <tushkee> dooglus: i run the vncviewer on local, and it says - end of stream  ?
[06:50] <engla> *I don't feel the pain though until there is less than 50M free (caches included)
[06:50] <dooglus> tushkee: "vncviewer localhost:1" ?
[06:50] <LjL> tonyyarusso: yeah... the complete command line i would use, right now, is    wget --force-html --convert-links --mirror https://wiki.ubuntu.com
[06:50] <nickrud> asterisk99: something was out of sync, it seems. Perseverance Provides ;)
[06:50] <lint> HymnToLife: If my terminal is claiming that the resource is temporarily unavailable (somehow adept is running in secret) how can i kill the process?
[06:50] <asterisk99> nickrud: And... dumb luck
[06:50] <tushkee> dooglus: yeah...the remote btw is on LAN.
[06:50] <dooglus> tushkee: it shouldn't matter.
[06:51] <tushkee> dooglus: lemme try it again...
[06:51] <tonyyarusso> LjL: It looks like it needs an option to not check the certificate too.

[06:55] <dooglus> tushkee: try "nc localhost 5900" in the ssh window.
[06:55] <tulio2> guys, http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/7570/partition6nc.png thats right or not ?
[06:55] <tushkee> it's a tightvncserver and yes, i can connect to it normally by issuing vncviewer

[07:20] <lint> whats your sources.lst look like?
[07:21] <lint> if its the default
[07:21] <lint> just wait a bit and try again
[07:21] <ramlez> no
[07:21] <cwillu> where yesterday = whenever you were on before
[07:21] <nickrud> SirTorte: sudo chown -R <user>:<user> /path/to/dir
[07:21] <tushkee> is freeNX available yet on Dapper?
[07:21] <lisi> nope
[07:21] <DeMoNSeEd> lisi,  i see
[07:22] <tulio2> what is the best way to install ati driver?
[07:22] <nickrud> !tell tulio2 about ati
[07:22] <SirTorte> nickrud: Thanks! I'll try right away.
[07:22] <tulio2> nickrud: i already reat that
[07:22] <ramlez> lint,  i have sources.lst from polish forum, I'll try again leter but it must download again all 450,b ? :| :(
[07:22] <tulio2> but what is the better way ?
[07:22] <cwillu> ies4 didn't work either, you said?
[07:22] <tulio2> that u guys recommend ?
[07:22] <lisi> cwillu: you mean uninstall and reinstall, or just clear out the dir (ie rename or something)?
[07:22] <scarabatwork> !dhcp
[07:22] <ubotu> What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, scarabatwork
[07:22] <cwillu> rename
[07:22] <SirTorte> Oh, I forgot to mention that I want to have full access to it to, so I'd rather him not 'owning' the folder.
[07:22] <lisi> it did work to download the ie files, which it did through the shell script which runs in linux
[07:22] <nickrud> tulio2: I don't have an ati, so I can't judge. That's supposed to be the 'best' advice
[07:22] <cwillu> uninstall may leave config files around, which will defeat the purpose
[07:23] <cwillu> ya, but not any further
[07:23] <LoCusF> !symbian
[07:23] <ubotu> LoCusF: Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:23] <tulio2> thanks
