[04:00] <axisys> z0di4k, lordkeiden so i could run ubuntu server and it should work fine correct?
[04:00] <Memener> im download that other cd and ill see if that will work
[04:00] <axisys> yes i dont care about xorg
[04:00] <genii> TTT_Travis: More likely slowdowns are either dns related or you have multiple router/hub/switch cascaded and lots of collisions
[04:00] <z0di4k> axisys: Absolutely.  You could have xorg also, but I prefer to not run X on servers just for resources.....
[04:00] <Milo-> hmm, I think I just broke something, I can't log on to ubuntu as my keyboard layout is messed up, for example L prints 3
[04:01] <genii> z0di4k: Exactly
[04:01] <frogzoo> fredl: check /var/log/syslog
[04:01] <lordkeiden> axisys: imho, unless you are runnung a sql based site and high volume of queries (say 100 per min), i would think so.
[04:02] <francois> rwc: weird, looks much like mine
[04:02] <francois> rwc: only thing is that you're hsing the jp servesr
[04:02] <Milo-> any suggestions?
[04:02] <francois> rwc: could alwyas change that
[04:03] <z0di4k> axisys: You are talking pretty light weight use.  I have Apache+PHP+MySQL running on 500 MHz boxes without any problems at all.  These are serving up pages that get hundreds of hits per minute.
[04:03] <genii> axisys: I have several cli boxes. I put some basic functional stuff like elinks,mailutils,ircii  and get along fine surfing,chatting and emailing
[04:04] <lordkeiden> z0di4k: are these hits mostly queries of just php pages?
[04:05] <z0di4k> lordkeiden: It is a custom built PHP application.  It is basically an interface to data stored in the MySQL database.
[04:06] <genii> francois Have one from Tim Horton's on me :)
[04:06] <geeksauce> installing linux on the rents' computer cause i'm tired of fixing windows every day.  can it run on 128 ram?  and can i install from the live cd without booting into the live part first?
[04:06] <francois> genii: you speak my language :P
[04:07] <rwc> francois, ok, might give that a shot
[04:07] <genii> geeksauce: You'll need 192 on it to use the livecd regular iso install. but it runs on 128 fine. You can install by alternate cd with less that 192Mb
[04:09] <lordkeiden> z0di4k: well, I see i ubderestimate them. my numbers are based on watching iis5 beg for mercy at the same load on a simular machine and an asp site, and knowing that LAMP is better. I guess that LAMP is actually way way better! =-)
[04:09] <geeksauce> genii i have broadband so d'ling the alternate cd and burning isn't a big deal but i'm doing a million other things at the same time... any way to use one of the 6.06 LTS CD i ordered?  a command line switch before boot perhaps?
[04:10] <Milo-> what is GDM's config file for default keyboard layout?
[04:11] <genii> geeksauce No, the minimalistic installer just isn't on it unfortunately.
[04:12] <genii> geeksauce What I normally do actually is get the server install cd which goes to a cli install. Then I do a   apt-get install ubuntu-desktop   and then it just goes for the rest over internet
[04:12] <Milo-> or more like a GDM's login manager's keyboard layout config file?
[04:12] <casadel> hola
[04:13] <HymnToLife> Milo-, in GDM, you have the keyboard layout defined in your xorg.conf
[04:13] <casadel> hello
[04:13] <geeksauce> genii:  you mean run the server install cd from another pc on the network?
[04:13] <HymnToLife> !hi | casadel
[04:13] <ubotu> casadel: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:13] <graulich> How do I configure Ubuntu to work with an HDTV?
[04:13] <casadel> my name is ashley and they?
[04:13] <Milo-> HymnToLife mmkay, the keyboard works in console and when i'm logged in to gnome, but at login screen i can only use letters "y" "h" and "n"
[04:14] <HymnToLife> Milo-, pastebin your xorg.conf
[04:14] <z0di4k> lordkeiden: You saw that I said 100 hits per minute, *not* per second, right?  That is a load, but not a very heavy load.  Does iis really struggle under that?
[04:15] <genii> geeksauce No, I mean use the server install cd to quickly get a basic system on the box. with little resources etc so usually successful. Then get whatever desktop you like installed  by way of the command apt-get install    kubuntu-desktop for KDE xubuntu-desktop for xfce or ubuntu-desktop for regular Gnome
[04:16] <geeksauce> genii: will that install all the default packages and respective dependencies that are normally installed with the alternate ubuntu cd?
[04:16] <Milo-> http://rafb.net/p/ftBrnz97.html there you go
[04:16] <genii> geeksauce Yes
[04:17] <graulich> What do I tell xorg.conf to get higher resolutions on an HDTV?
[04:17] <Rafa_Viva_Rev> Greetings
[04:18] <francois> graulich: i think you can just add higher resolutions, if you know them
[04:18] <francois> Rafa_Viva_Rev: hi
[04:18] <graulich> francois: no that doesn't work
[04:18] <chris_> hallo?
[04:18] <chris_> hello i am new here
[04:18] <geeksauce> genii: ok thanks.  their pc is a real heap.  celeron 466, 128 ram, 4 mb video... think i should install xununtu, or is that designed more to conserve hdd space?
[04:18] <chris_> i heve today installed linux
[04:18] <nipuL> i'm getting a strange behaviour where the home directory is nfs mounted, gksu{do} will not run unless from a terminal. Which does not bother me, but my wife doesnt like it (:\) any ideas why this is happeneing?
[04:18] <genii> graulich It depends on combo of vidcard and monitor. If you know the max resolutions both can handle just add them to the xorg.conf file ahead of the highest ones there already.
[04:19] <chris_> SOMEBODY NETHERLAND
[04:19] <chris_> SOMEBODY NETHERLAND
[04:19] <nipuL> the programs won't even run unless it is mounted nolock, so i guess that might have something to do with it
[04:19] <Rafa_Viva_Rev> It is my first time in this chat in the comunity
[04:19] <lordkeiden> z0di4k: yup.... i saw that, and yes, iis5 was sweating blood! the team that wrote it was very confident that it was a clean set of code...i was contracted to find bad hardware on the server or network. everything was good then and still is...
[04:19] <chris_> my too
[04:19] <mastroDani> hi all, i've a problem, i've an Epson Stylus CX-3650 and i followed this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=17314 and this http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_EPSON_CX3650_&_DX3850 guide, printer work, but scanner don't! i don't have /etc/hotplug/ so i cannot follow that guides.. if i try apt-get install hotplug it say that udev and module-init-tools substitute it
[04:19] <Rafa_Viva_Rev> how are you francois?
[04:19] <francois> hi all the new guys
[04:19] <graulich> so genii, there's nothing special that needs to be done?
[04:19] <francois> Rafa_Viva_Rev: good, did you need help with something ?
[04:19] <chris_> rafa this too my first time here
[04:20] <genii> geeksauce: Well, we have had a bit of debate earlier over that. but as for bang for the buck as goes a gui and usable, xubuntu is fine for something like that box is capable of
[04:20] <mastroDani> can anybody help me? why i don't have /etc/hotplug? how can i "install" it?
[04:20] <francois> graulich: you can do Xorg -configure
[04:20] <oblio> hi all
[04:20] <chris_> CAN I DOWNLOAD MSN FOR LINUX ???
[04:20] <Rafa_Viva_Rev> aMsn Chris
[04:20] <graulich> francois: you mean "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" or something else?
[04:20] <francois> chris_: you can use kopete,
[04:20] <pbureau> chris_,  look for aMSN
[04:21] <mastroDani> chris_, there's other tools.. aMSN, Gaim, Mercury Messenger
[04:21] <chris_> I HEVE ALREADY DOWNLOAD IT BUT HE DOND INSTALL IT
[04:21] <genii> graulich: Well, you will need to restart the x server to see if it takes of course. If not, then you go back and reverse the changes to the xorg.conf
[04:21] <Rafa_Viva_Rev> Gaim is good too
[04:21] <francois> graulich: yeah, but also Xorg -configure, they're different
[04:21] <francois> graulich: one is simply for the xorg, the other for the server
[04:21] <genii> holy capslock batman!
[04:21] <Rafa_Viva_Rev> In Aplications-> add Programs
[04:21] <Rafa_Viva_Rev> internet->
[04:21] <geeksauce> genii: so will it run any faster that way?  is the only different the gui? xfce instead of gnome?
[04:21] <Rafa_Viva_Rev> it  should installed on Aplications->internet
[04:22] <graulich> okay I'll try it, thanks francois, genii
[04:22] <Milo-> HymnToLife http://rafb.net/p/ftBrnz97.html
[04:22] <mastroDani> can anybody help me?
[04:22] <mastroDani> please
[04:22] <francois> mastroDani: surel
[04:22] <francois> mastroDani: ask away
[04:22] <oblio> see gyache for messenger; is very good...
[04:22] <genii> geeksauce: Basically the same sort of interface. in current xfce version tho, be warned is not intuitive how to make desktop shortcuts like in kde  or gnome tho.
[04:22] <chris_> ok
[04:22] <mastroDani> francois, tnx... i've already asked... i don't have the /etc/hotplug directory (ubuntu 6.06 fresh install) i need it for setting up my scanner
[04:23] <HeXiLed> hi guys.
[04:23] <mastroDani> francois, but if i try apt-get install hotplug it say that there's udev and module-init-tools that substitute it
[04:23] <HymnToLife> mastroDani, what makes you think you need it ?
[04:23] <mastroDani> i've debian with another system and i have udev but still have /etc/hotplug directory... so... how can i get back that?
[04:23] <Rafa_Viva_Rev> anybody knows its exist any driver for epson multifuncional cx7700? (sorry for my english, I'm a Latin guy)
[04:24] <francois> mastroDani: i don't beleive you need that directory anymore, let me look
[04:24] <mastroDani> HymnToLife, i've an Epson Stylus CX-3650 and i tried follow this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=17314 and this http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_EPSON_CX3650_&_DX3850 guide
[04:24] <mastroDani> francois, watch my link
[04:24] <HeXiLed>  i have a friend with an issue playing dvds with ubuntu. does he need any kind os codecs?
[04:24] <mastroDani> and.. as i said, with debian unstable i have that directory
[04:25] <genii> geeksauce Also by default gnome gdm login is installed, so you can put a minimalistic one if you like. i prefer wdm and then I uninstall gdm . It puts in a buinch on gnome stuff just to make the login screen pretty so I don't care to have it when I'm just going into xfce anyhow
[04:26] <mastroDani> HeXiLed, yes whatch here https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/dvdplayback.html
[04:26] <Rafa_Viva_Rev> mastrodani: thnx i will be rigth back

[04:27] <francois> mastroDani: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=26911
[04:28] <francois> mastroDani: it explains about firmware, for your scanner, and how to get it working
[04:28] <mastroDani> francois, wait i read it
[04:28] <HymnToLife> visik7, that's what you should have done from the start :p
[04:28] <Amaranth> HymnToLife: he seems to have stopped
[04:28] <Amaranth> oh
[04:28] <Amaranth> missed the kick
[04:29] <mastroDani> francois, are you sure? i don't find CX 3650 there
[04:29] <graulich> umm, how do I stop the X server and go into a true console?
[04:29] <francois> mastroDani: it doesn't matter the make, you have to follow the same steps to get the firmware working,
[04:29] <oblio> pls. guys, I've Edgy Eft and I wanna install libgnomeui-dev : how to proceed ?
[04:29] <francois> mastroDani: just use the same steps, but for your scanner
[04:29] <apokryphos> oblio: take a look at the FAQ <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions> as linked to in the channel /topic
[04:29] <BetaCookies> hmm
[04:30] <mastroDani> graulich, CTRL+ALT+F1 (don't stop X server, change to terminal, hit ALT+F7 to return on X)
[04:30] <francois> graulich: use alt + f1 and then go
[04:30] <oblio> apokryphos,tnx !
[04:30] <selinuxium> how do i unload modules?
[04:30] <visik7> HymnToLife: yes but before I  had to be sure that nothing works
[04:30] <francois> graulich: /ect/init.d/kdm stop
[04:30] <selinuxium> hi apokryphos!
[04:30] <mastroDani> francois, i don't have a firmware (.bin)
[04:30] <HymnToLife> visik7, why is that ?
[04:30] <apokryphos> selinuxium: modprobe :P
[04:30] <HeXiLed> thanks
[04:30] <francois> mastroDani: you can prolly find it on the cd that came with your scanner, or online, at their website
[04:30] <BetaCookies> I'm trying to compile something, and I get this: "***Error***: some autoconf macros required to build slab were not found in your aclocal path, or some forbidden macros were found.  Perhaps you need to adjust your ACLOCAL_FLAGS?"
[04:31] <graulich> francois: I'm on gnome =x
[04:31] <visik7> HymnToLife: uh ?
[04:31] <oblio> bye all
[04:31] <mastroDani> :/
[04:31] <selinuxium> apokryphos: I thought that was for loading them! should really read the man files... :)
[04:31] <Milo-> HymnToLife http://rafb.net/p/ftBrnz97.html that xorg.conf file
[04:31] <mastroDani> but i'm sure there's a way to get the /etc/hotplug directory
[04:31] <knovak> So, what would you say is the best free RPG for Linux?
[04:31] <francois> graulich: ah, i forget what the manager name was for gnome, just replace kdm with it
[04:31] <Milo-> any idea what's wrong
[04:31] <apokryphos> selinuxium: both
[04:31] <HymnToLife> Milo-, nothing wrong in it...
[04:31] <selinuxium> apokryphos: PM quickly?
[04:31] <apokryphos> selinuxium: ok
[04:31] <HymnToLife> maybe your GDM config is FUBAR
[04:31] <Milo-> HymnToLife obviously something is wrong as the login manager fails to use his keyboard
[04:32] <francois> Milo-: maybe broken keyboard ?
[04:32] <HymnToLife> Milo-, yes but the wrong thing is not in your xorg.conf :p
[04:32] <olafski> 'lo, I'm having trouble installing nvidia drivers for my geforce 6200, could anyone perhaps assist? :)
[04:32] <Milo-> francois keyboard is working just fine as soon as he logs in
[04:32] <christopherl> How do I know if usb2.0 is enabled on my computer? I move files between my usbdisk and computer, it's very slow.
[04:32] <Milo-> as well as in console
[04:32] <francois> Milo-: ah
[04:32] <francois> olafski: which drivers? from the website ?
[04:33] <Milo-> HymnToLife any deas where else the problem could be in?
[04:33] <olafski> francois: I used add/remove software from the menu to install nvidia proprietary drivers
[04:33] <HymnToLife> Milo-, your GDM config maybe, but I can't help you with it
[04:33] <francois> olafski: i use the drivers from the website, much better,
[04:33] <sts> hello folks
[04:33] <Milo-> ;<
[04:33] <sts> is there a mod_perl 2.0 package for ubuntu?
[04:33] <olafski> francois: ok, can give that a try, would "better" imply that they work? cause these ones make my screen go black and the system unresponsive
[04:34] <HymnToLife> francois, but also much more complicated for a beginner to install :p
[04:34] <francois> olafski: so whats wrong with the drivers after you installed them ?>
[04:34] <olafski> after I enable them (forgot how I did that, something with glx enable), I restart X and the screen goes black
[04:34] <francois> HymnToLife: agreed, but they may be his only solution
[04:34] <HymnToLife> olafski, did you check the troubleshooting section in !nvidia ?
[04:34] <francois> olafski: ok, pastbin your xorg.conf file
[04:35] <francois> olafski: true, do that first
[04:35] <Herpes> Has Ubuntu linux kernel 2.6.20?
[04:35] <olafski> hm I already put a backup back in place
[04:35] <olafski> !nvidia
[04:35] <olafski> ?
[04:35] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:35] <olafski> ah
[04:35] <HymnToLife> Herpes, !feisty has a 2.6.20 kernel
[04:36] <geeksauce> genii: second statement you lost me... i thought you were using gnome with a minimalistic login screen, then you said something about "when i'm going into xfce anhow"
[04:37] <Rafa_Viva_Rev> anybody could install autodesk maya 8.0?
[04:37] <Pici> sts: libapache2-mod-perl2
[04:38] <Marco_> !GRUB
[04:38] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[04:38] <olafski> francois / HymnToLife: I'm using kubuntu by the way, so there's no "system" menu, but I assume it works more or less the same?
[04:38] <francois> olafski: should be, yup
[04:38] <francois> Rafa_Viva_Rev: i think you can install it with wine
[04:39] <willytell> someone know about courier, postfix
[04:39] <willytell> ?
[04:40] <genii> geeksauce wdm is a minimalistic x display manager. But even if you install only xubuntu-desktop for instance, it wants to pinstall a bunch of stuff gnome related just to give you gdm
[04:40] <Rafa_Viva_Rev> but the rendering it work normally?
[04:40] <francois> Rafa_Viva_Rev: yeah should be ok, let me check something before though
[04:41] <olafski> francois: hm I can't find this "restricted copyright" section in the repositories
[04:41] <arnnnn> is there a way to search files that has certain string inside ?
[04:41] <francois> olafski: are you running kde ?
[04:41] <olafski> yes
[04:41] <arnnnn> is there a way to search files that has certain sentence inside ?
[04:42] <francois> arnnnn: use grep
[04:42] <paiiiiii> Hi, i cannot find my wired networkcard. Ill find it in "lspci" but not in "ifconfig"
[04:42] <paiiiiii> any suggestions?
[04:42] <francois> olafski: download the linux drivers from nvidia.com and i'll guide you through them
[04:42] <paiiiiii> :((
[04:42] <paiiiiii> "Unknown device"
[04:42] <olafski> francois: excellent, will that include a kernel module? if I'm naming this correctly, I have no idea ;)
[04:42] <paiiiiii> "Agere Systems Unknown device"
[04:42] <HymnToLife> olafski, yeah, that's the whole point :p
[04:43] <Canute_> Hi guys. I just recently installed Edgy, worked out great, got fglrx working too :D. However, I was editing my xorg.conf so it supports my Logitech MX510 mouse, in the guide i was following it suggested to do alt+ctrl+f1 and then /etc/init.d/gdm restart, i tried that but it the system wouldn't show the console so i just hard-rebooted with th powerbutton. When I now logged on, the sound didn't work, first it was just muted, but when i unmu
[04:43] <Canute_> ted it still didn't work.
[04:43] <HymnToLife> but be sure to deinstall your restricted-modules before to avoid conflicts
[04:43] <olafski> francois: ok I downloaded the .run file to my desktop
[04:43] <Rafa_Viva_Rev> olafski use automatix2
[04:43] <francois> olafski: ok, you need to uninstall the restricted modules, otherwise we'll have problems
[04:44] <HymnToLife> !automatix
[04:44] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[04:44] <Rafa_Viva_Rev> it works for my

[04:44] <HymnToLife> !worksforme
[04:44] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[04:44] <olafski> :)
[04:44] <olafski> francois: alright, where can I find this?
[04:44] <genii> Canute_ After you do ctrl-alt-f1 to get a console, you get back to X by alt-f6 or alt-f7
[04:44] <Canute_> Heh, too late now...
[04:44] <arnnnn> francois, thanks
[04:44] <francois> olafski: in your package manager, in the menu, just searched for installed packages and search restricted, and remove them
[04:44] <HymnToLife> olafski, open up Adept, search for any package with restricted-modules in it, and remove it
[04:45] <olafski> alright, shows 3, removing those now :)
[04:45] <HymnToLife> and also nvidia-glxc
[04:45] <HymnToLife> glx*
[04:46] <olafski> hm seems that was one of them
[04:46] <francois> olafski: yeah, its a dependancy
[04:46] <olafski> when searching for 'nvidia' there's also "nvidia-kernel-common", should that go as well?
[04:46] <genii> Canute_ Check the mixer by right-click on the speaker icon and see that the PCM device is unmuted
[04:46] <HymnToLife> nope, keep that one
[04:46] <francois> olafski: thats ok,
[04:46] <olafski> ok
[04:46] <olafski> ready :)
[04:46] <francois> HymnToLife: you know how to guide him ?
[04:46] <Milo-> HymnToLife weird, those fonts in "xorg.conf" doesnt exist
[04:47] <HymnToLife> no, I never installed the nvidia.com driver is Ubuntu
[04:47] <francois> ok
[04:47] <francois> olafski: now, write this down, because you'll only have 1 chance,
[04:47] <olafski> :)
[04:47] <olafski> I'm IRC'ing on another pc
[04:48] <francois> olafski: you need to do alt+f1, and that will give you a console, now, type sudo /ect/init.d/kdm stop,
[04:48] <Canute_> genii: it was muted, however, nothing changed when i unmuted it.
[04:48] <francois> olafski: now cd to your folder where you saved the drivers
[04:48] <punjab> Hi. Work KVM without running X? I wont run system in KVM on remote server.
[04:49] <francois> olafski: type sh drivername.run
[04:49] <ircusr> hiall
[04:49] <Canute_> genii: ok, had to move the sliders aswell, right, now it works :p
[04:49] <francois> olafski: go through the install, agreeing to what it says
[04:49] <HymnToLife> francois, it won't work in Edgy
[04:49] <Canute_> genii: thanks ;)
[04:49] <HymnToLife> there are a few other things to do
[04:49] <HymnToLife> but I don't know what :p
[04:49] <francois> HymnToLife: i'm running edgy, and it runs fine
[04:49] <ircusr> im running dapper, and it's great
[04:50] <genii> Canute_ Well, check perhaps all the other mixer devices and experiment to see if it is in there somplace. If not, you may also want to go into system settings and change the driver to something else like oss then change it back and restart it. You can also test from in there
[04:50] <olafski> francois: I assume this is right, but just to check: I need to type "sudo sh drivername.run" right?
[04:50] <genii> Canute_ Ah, OK :)
[04:50] <geeksauce> genii: ah ok.  either way i should use wdm though?  it's not gonna be passworded and there will only be one account other than root, so i'd set to autologin anyway
[04:50] <francois> olafski: where drivername is like NVIDIA-INSTALLER or whatever its named
[04:50] <olafski> aye just checking about the sudo part, you didn't mention that and the installer said it needs to be root
[04:51] <francois> olafski: yeah sorry,
[04:51] <olafski> download a kernel interface?
[04:51] <francois> olafski: just agree to it
[04:51] <francois> olafski: it won't find any,, but its ok
[04:51] <ircusr> ah
[04:51] <genii> geeksauce If only 1 account with autologin then you don't need a display manager. If it wants one by default then wdm is lightest.
[04:52] <The_Machine> I want to remove captive NTFS from my operating system.  I don't know how though.  Could someone *please* help me?  It's killing the performance of the OS.
[04:52] <francois> olafski: how are things ?
[04:52] <olafski> francois: it says it needs to compile a kernel interface
[04:52] <olafski> and is doing that right now
[04:52] <francois> olafski: ok, do it
[04:52] <olafski> now it says it was forced to guess the X library path and X module path
[04:52] <geeksauce> genii: gotcha, thanks.
[04:52] <francois> olafski: ok keep going
[04:53] <genii> geeksauce np
[04:53] <olafski> "would you like to run the nvidia-xconfig utility?"
[04:53] <olafski> yes I assume :)
[04:53] <francois> olafski: yup
[04:53] <olafski> all done
[04:53] <francois> olafski: this will modify your xorg to run on the new drivers
[04:53] <francois> ok
[04:53] <olafski> kdm start?
[04:53] <genii> The_Machine: By "captive" NTFS what do you mean?   Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine  -  See also !codecs
[04:54] <francois> mastroDani: awsome, you should post a forum about it, to help others
[04:54] <ProN00b> can anyone recommend a nntp client ?
[04:54] <francois> olafski: do you know how to open your xorg.conf ?
[04:54] <olafski> francois: aye
[04:55] <francois> olafski: awsome, check the drivers, and see if its set to nvidia
[04:55] <Milo-> GRrrrrrrrrrrr
[04:55] <christopherl> is usb 2.0 enabled by default in Ubuntu 6.10?
[04:55] <Milo-> frustrating
[04:55] <Milo-> i cant get my gdm's login screen to work!
[04:55] <ircusr> i think it is
[04:55] <Milo-> not with keyboard
[04:55] <olafski> francois: driver "nvidia"; BoardName "nv"
[04:55] <genii> The_Machine: Nevermind, just looked it up, read write NTFS package. If you installed it by deb package just do apt-get remove --purge <exact package name here>
[04:55] <nothlit> christopherl: it should be
[04:55] <secion8> hello everybody
[04:55] <ircusr> h
[04:55] <francois> olafski: ok, now back to console, and restart kdm
[04:55] <ircusr> hi
[04:56] <francois> /ect/init.d/kdm restart
[04:56] <christopherl> nothlit: do you know where I can check if it's enabled?
[04:56] <dreamer> hi, I just apt-get quake2, and when I try to start I get: Error: Couldn't load pics/colormap.pcx
[04:57] <nothlit> christopherl: try lspci | grep usb
[04:57] <olafski> francois: all done, I got a grey screen with a blinking cursor where kdm should be
[04:57] <genii> The_machine If you compiled it from source, go to the directory you ran make from and put sudo make dist-clean
[04:57] <secion8> I am following this tutorial http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197102&highlight=bcm+4318
[04:57] <genii> sometimes just make dist
[04:57] <francois> olafski: a grey screen ?
[04:57] <secion8> Everytime I blacklist bcm43xx my wireless interface dissapears.
[04:57] <francois> olafski: nothing showing up ?
[04:57] <olafski> yes, on alt+f7
[04:57] <The_Machine> it wasn't that
[04:57] <The_Machine> i found it
[04:57] <olafski> black on alt+f8
[04:57] <The_Machine> hmm
[04:57] <The_Machine> heh
[04:57] <The_Machine> you konw
[04:57] <christopherl> nothlit: nothing
[04:58] <secion8> I do not understand how to use the wifi carfd if it dissapears
[04:58] <HymnToLife> secion8, it's normal, since you disabled the driver...
[04:58] <The_Machine> i've been trying this for about a month
[04:58] <francois> olafski: if you type startx, what happens ?
[04:58] <The_Machine> and finally when i ask someone in the chan about it
[04:58] <The_Machine> is when i find the answer
[04:58] <The_Machine> anyway :)  hehe
[04:58] <secion8> how do I bring the interface up if it is not listed when I run iwconfig
[04:58] <olafski> francois: (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module!
[04:58] <The_Machine> bbiaf!
[04:58] <genii> The_Machine: :) cool. Like a name you have on the tip of your tongue then it comes to you
[04:58] <francois> olafski: ok
[04:58] <nothlit> christopherl: try just lspci
[04:58] <francois> olafski: do Xorg --configure
[04:59] <Lunar_Lamp> !amarok

[04:59] <olafski> francois: unrecognised option: --configure
[04:59] <nothlit> olafski: also have you ever installed the nvidia drivers manually or not from the repos?
[04:59] <Milo-> seriously, is here anyone who could tell me what can be wrong with gnome's login screen, as my keyboard is not working at the login screen, but it works in console, and it would start working after logon screen!
[04:59] <IdleOne> Zeveaz: it was a joke :(
[04:59] <olafski> nothlit: never done such a thing, I installed kubuntu today :)
[05:00] <mustafa> I am trying to watch vcd on totem first it worked I watched the first cd but when I had put the second cd it couldnt play and now it doesnt play anythin can some one help me
[05:00] <olafski> HymnToLife: thanks, but if you don't mind I'll stick to one method at a time ;)
[05:00] <mastroDani> francois, i would like.. but i have to register...
[05:00] <olafski> bookmarked though
[05:00] <mastroDani> i'll do it
[05:00] <francois> olafski: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, type this,
[05:00] <nothlit> Milo-: you need to reconfigure your keyboard for xorg
[05:01] <christopherl> nothlit: I got a lot of text, but didn't say anything about usb 2.0
[05:01] <matsavhalev> anyone have experience with TFTP and PXE booting? having a small problem cant seem to figure it out
[05:01] <nothlit> christopherl: no mention of anything usb at all?
[05:01] <Milo-> nothlit http://rafb.net/p/ftBrnz97.html here is my xorg.conf
[05:01] <francois> olafski: and then look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log, and post it on pastebin and gimme link
[05:01] <Milo-> i cant see what is wrong with it
[05:01] <nothlit> matsavhalev: you should ask in #edubuntu, they're good at LTSP stuff
[05:01] <Milo-> it worked yesterday
[05:01] <Milo-> then i installed some fonts, and now even after uninstalling those fonts, it is not working
[05:01] <genii> matsavhalev: Yes, I have a server mirroring dapper and edgy to a local lan here where they netboot and install.
[05:02] <HymnToLife> olafski, it seems you need to pass a few parameters to sh *.run
[05:02] <christopherl> nothlit: 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801CA/CAM USB (Hub #1) (rev 02)
[05:02] <christopherl> 00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801CA/CAM USB (Hub #3) (rev 02)
[05:02] <olafski> francois: that command gives me one of those 'visual' menu systems to configure X, I assume I should run through that before I post the Xorg log?
[05:02] <HymnToLife> maybe that's why it didn't work
[05:02] <francois> olafski: yeah
[05:02] <nothlit> Milo-:  "XkbLayout"     "fi" ? you're not using the standard us layout?
[05:02] <Wanderer> !beryl
[05:02] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[05:02] <Milo-> no, finnish layout
[05:02] <francois> HymnToLife: his doesn't need to pass parameters
[05:02] <nothlit> christopherl: kk gimme a sec
[05:02] <christopherl> ok
[05:03] <nothlit> christopherl: try dmesg | grep usb
[05:03] <HymnToLife> nothlit, here's some news : not everyone in the world live in the US !
[05:03] <HymnToLife> yes, yes, it's true :p
[05:03] <nothlit> HymnToLife: i don't either
[05:03] <genii> matsavhalev: What is the cause of your frustration involving pxe and tftpd ?
[05:03] <olafski> ok, now to find out how I am going to post that file without a graphical environment :s
[05:03] <olafski> just a sec
[05:04] <matsavhalev> genii: i followed http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_pxe_install_server_p2 till the end of page two, the PXE boots and gets a dhcp ip addy but it says TFTP file not found
[05:04] <francois> ah
[05:04] <francois> olafski: try using links
[05:04] <nothlit> Milo-: does the keyboard only not work in GDM or all of X
[05:04] <francois> olafski: or you can just read through it, and tell me the errors you'll find, they're posted with EE at hte beggininig
[05:04] <genii> matsavhalev: Yes, you have to enable it in the file /etc/default/tftpd
[05:04] <matsavhalev> genii: tried playing with it again and again :-) no luck findingthe file, when i do a tftp localhost i can see it though so i dont understand
[05:05] <olafski> I ftp'd the log to my other pc, fastest way I knew ;)
[05:05] <Milo-> nothlit only not in this login screen
[05:05] <olafski> !pastebin

[05:05] <matsavhalev> genii: did that, are you using tftp or tftp-hpa?

[05:05] <olafski> francois: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4296/
[05:06] <battlesqu1d> i think i have messed up the /etc/groups and now sudo doesn't work, please help!
[05:06] <secion8> can someone please help me bring up my wireless interface, it is not listed when I run iwconfig
[05:06] <francois> olafski: reboot the computer while i read this :)
[05:06] <christopherl> nothlit: I got this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4297/
[05:06] <genii> matsavhalev: I use tftpd-hpa and my netboot root is /var/lib/tftpboot  where pxelinux.0 is. Under that is the pxelinux.cfg directory where the default boot file is
[05:07] <matsavhalev> genii: i have the same setup
[05:07] <battlesqu1d> is there some way to restore /etc/groups?
[05:07] <olafski> alright
[05:07] <SmAcKaSs> Alright, who is around to troubleshoot my lack of a network connection on a fresh install?
[05:07] <olafski> I'm going to pray it will boot into anything usable ;)
[05:07] <genii> matsavhalev: This is a good place to look at for conf settings and so on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuOnCluster
[05:08] <francois> olafski: it'll still be usable if you change the driver to nv in your xorg, until we can resolve this
[05:08] <battlesqu1d> i think i have messed up the /etc/groups and now sudo doesn't work, please help! is there some way to restore /etc/groups or is there some other way?
[05:08] <genii> matsavhalev: The yp stuff you don't neccesarily need
[05:08] <SmAcKaSs> My network-admin gui is all screwy too.
[05:08] <genii> (nis)
[05:09] <olafski> francois: it booted with a text login
[05:09] <francois> olafski: text ? you mean console ?
[05:09] <olafski> eh yeah
[05:09] <francois> olafski: ok,
[05:09] <francois> olafski: did you have your headers installed ?
[05:09] <jackson> to play 'ape' files what's the name of the plugin i'd need....thanx
[05:09] <rjg_> When every i try to icompile from source, I do exactly as the instruction say, and everything goes fine. The, i get to make, and I always get this error: make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[05:09] <olafski> headers..? not that I know of
[05:09] <nothlit> christopherl: oh ok i figured it out: lspci | grep usb | grep ehci
[05:10] <rjg_> I'm SURE i've done everythign else right
[05:10] <francois> olafski: gimme a sec
[05:10] <nothlit> christopherl: if you get any output, you're running usb2
[05:10] <ProN00b> can anyone recommend a nntp (news) client ?
[05:10] <genii> matsavhalev: This is useful as well http://wiki.koeln.ccc.de/index.php/Ubuntu_PXE_Install
[05:10] <NaPsTeR_> when does 7.04 come out?
[05:10] <matsavhalev> genii: unfortunately this computer is my pxe server so have to disconnect every time i wanna try it :0)
[05:11] <nothlit> christopherl: for me i just had a line like 00:10.4 USB Controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. USB 2.0 (rev 86) but if you don't, EHCI will tell you if you do
[05:11] <francois> olafski: write uname -r, at console,
[05:11] <Milo-> nothlit did you have any help for me? -_-
[05:11] <francois> olafski: then apt-get install linux-headers-{output of prev step here}
[05:11] <olafski> francois: 2.6.17-10-generic
[05:11] <secion8> Is anyone willing to help me with ndiswrapper and bcm4318 rev2? Please?
[05:12] <genii> matsavhalev: Those 2 sites I gave have between them pretty much all the stuff you need to do. If you need help with preseed files let me know, I had to reverse engineer mine but they auto setup over netboot fine now
[05:12] <nothlit> Milo-: sorry, i'd investigate but i don't have gdm/kdm even installed
[05:12] <olafski> francois: linux-headers-2.6.17-10-generic is already the newest version.
[05:12] <francois> olafski: ok awsome,
[05:12] <francois> olafski: just a moment
[05:12] <matsavhalev> genii: cool thanks, actually just looking to get feisty on my coreduo but the cdrom drive burnt out
[05:12] <olafski> sure :) thanks a bunch for all the time so far by the way
[05:13] <matsavhalev> genii: figured i could do it over pxe
[05:13] <genii> matsavhalev: Yeah it's a bit of a learning curve but works great once it's setup
[05:13] <christopherl> nothlit: got nothing, seems that I don't have usb 2.0, do you know where I can get it?
[05:14] <Lunar_Lamp> Is there an easy way to convert a lot of m4a files to mp3?
[05:14] <nothlit> christopherl: do you have any usb 2.0 devices plugged in?
[05:14] <Lunar_Lamp> (or ogg)
[05:14] <olafski> francois: it also mentioned some packages were automatically installed and are no longer required by the way (libsmokeqt1, binutils-static, nvidia-kernel-common)
[05:14] <francois> olafski: thats ok, have you done a sudo apt-get update and then upgrade ?
[05:14] <herede> Hi, does Ubuntu still have the 'custom' boot option?
[05:15] <olafski> francois: not that I remember, should I?
[05:15] <herede> I don't want a regular desktop setup.
[05:15] <Kolin5485> hello, sorry for very dumb question. In midnight commander when I'm in / I want to type 'los' to make cursor jump on 'lost+found' Just like in windows explorer.
[05:15] <francois> olafski: do it, just in case, it'll bring your system up to date
[05:15] <christopherl> nothlit: yes, my usb 2.0 8gb flash drive
[05:15] <olafski> francois: nothing upgraded, I did install the updates when KDE prompted me to, guess that did it
[05:15] <genii> herede Unfortunately you need to get the alternate install cd for stuff like dialog based install
[05:15] <francois> olafski: ok good
[05:16] <nothlit> !usbtree
[05:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about usbtree - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:16] <francois> olafski: go back into your xorg
[05:16] <olafski> francois: xorg.conf?
[05:16] <francois> olafski: yeah
[05:16] <olafski> alright
[05:16] <nothlit> christopherl: are you sure your hardware supports usb 2?
[05:17] <francois> olafski: and under the module section, remove the dri and GLCore lines if they are there, and add the glx module, Load "glx"
[05:17] <Kolin5485> hello, sorry for very dumb question. In midnight commander when I'm in / I want to type 'los' to make cursor jump on 'lost+found' Just like in windows explorer.
[05:17] <herede> genii: okay, thanks for the info
[05:17] <christopherl> nothlit: yes, it's says so in manual
[05:17] <olafski> francois: dri removed, GLCore isn't there, glx is already loaded
[05:17] <genii> herede np
[05:18] <francois> olafski: save the file,
[05:18] <francois> olafski: type startx now
[05:18] <nothlit> christopherl: well its because you shouldn't have to do anything to enable it, the default kernel has support compiled in
[05:18] <olafski> francois: looks like that produces the same error
[05:19] <nothlit> christopherl: the manual for your computer says its usb 2.0 <capable> ?
[05:19] <Smexi> Quick question guys, Wheres the sudo'ers file?
[05:19] <christopherl> nothlit: ok, thanks anyway
[05:19] <genii> Smexi: /etc/sudoers
[05:19] <olafski> francois: it says failed to load NVIDIA kernel module, and then screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration
[05:19] <francois> olafski:
[05:19] <Smexi> Thankyou! :D
[05:19] <christopherl> nothlit: it took me 25min to transfer a 1.4gb file from usb to computer, isn't that slow?
[05:19] <francois> olafski: maybe the config file isn't working with your monitor
[05:20] <HymnToLife> francois, if it fails to load the module, I doubt the problem is with the monitor
[05:20] <francois> olafski: backup the xorg.conf file, use cp xorg.conf xorg.conf.old
[05:20] <olafski> francois: but shouldn't that kernel module error be resolved anyhow? I'll check out the settings, don't know the exact settings for my screen though
[05:20] <olafski> francois: alright backed up, what needs changing :)
[05:20] <francois> HymnToLife: it says it detects the module, and the monitor, but doesn't have a stable running
[05:21] <francois> olafski: heres the funny part, delete your xorg.conf

[05:21] <francois> olafski: :P
[05:21] <genii> christopher1 Remember that altho the usb can do great speeds, the ide or sata drive in the usb enclosure can only do speeds which an IDE interface allows
[05:21] <olafski> francois: done
[05:21] <nothlit> christopherl: yes .93 mb/s is on the slow side
[05:21] <christopherl> ok
[05:22] <francois> olafski: OK, try startx, and/or restarting kdm manager
[05:22] <viller> how to enable wmv support (dapper)?

[05:23] <francois> olafski: ok, use alt+f1 again, and open up the new xorg, it should of created one, and then check the drivesr, see if they're set to nvidia
[05:23] <viller> thx nothlit
[05:23] <SmAcKaSs> well mine is a Broadcom in a laptop
[05:24] <SmAcKaSs> i can see it in iwconfig, but the gui is acting up
[05:24] <secion8> smackass, what chipset?
[05:24] <HymnToLife> SmAcKaSs, shouldn't be difficult to get working with ndiswrapper
[05:24] <Bobsworth> genii thanks, i'll try that
[05:24] <olafski> francois: there's no xorg.conf, should I close X first?
[05:24] <genii> Bobsworth np
[05:24] <secion8> hymntolife, I did the ndiswrapper procedure and my interface disspaeared
[05:24] <francois> olafski: yeah, close the display, and then see if there was a file created
[05:24] <SmAcKaSs> Hymn: not familiar with ndiswrapper, is it built into ubuntu?
[05:24] <HymnToLife> !ndiswrapper | SmAcKaSs
[05:24] <ubotu> SmAcKaSs: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:25] <genii> SmAcKaSs: Also google for fw-cutter and bcm43xx and you'll find some help
[05:25] <freezey> does ubuntu have a .tt2 creator?
[05:25] <Smexi> Uhmmm
[05:25] <HymnToLife> secion8, it's normal your interface disappears before you install ndiswrapper
[05:25] <tuna-fish-> Is there a separate channel for feisty herd3 or does talk about it belong here?
[05:25] <lordkeiden> network manager issue, i think.
[05:25] <Smexi> Im trying to add my dear old mother to the sudoers file, So I can fix her printer but I need a hand...
[05:25] <Smexi> Do I just add her name to it?
[05:25] <Kolin5485> hello, sorry for very dumb question. In midnight commander when I'm in / I want to type 'los' to make cursor jump on 'lost+found' Just like in windows explorer.
[05:25] <Smexi> (Using "visudo" of course..."
[05:25] <genii> tuna-fish #ubuntu+1
[05:25] <HymnToLife> Smexi, add the login to the admins group
[05:25] <secion8> Before i install, But should it be back after i am done and reboot? Or do I got it wrong?
[05:26] <olafski> francois: no such file, it does say "using default builtin configuration"
[05:26] <Smexi> HymnToLife Thanks =]
[05:26] <olafski> francois: also mentions something about xf86AutoConfig
[05:26] <secion8> Hymn, How do I bring it up?
[05:26] <HymnToLife> Smexi, sudo nano -w /etc/group, spot the admin line, add the user, voil?
[05:26] <francois> olafski: ah, ok,
[05:26] <Smexi> Thanks for that...
[05:26] <francois> olafski: just a sec
[05:26] <HymnToLife> secion8, do you have ndiswrapper installed proplerly (i.e. ndiswrapper -i says "driver installed, hardware present") ?
[05:26] <lordkeiden> network manager report my wifi as eth1, and in the ndiswrapper gui in control panel, it shows no windows drivers, even though i used ndiswrapper to get my bcm4318 wifi card to work. whats up?
[05:27] <SmAcKaSs> I've read the ubuntu docs. i've trouble shot on my own, i'm looking to see if there is someone that can help me.
[05:27] <HymnToLife> SmAcKaSs, what exactly do you neet hepl with ?
[05:27] <SmAcKaSs> i'm fairly sure that my card will be compatible
[05:27] <secion8> hymn, yes, it says driver is installed and hardware present
[05:27] <HymnToLife> secion8, sudo iwconfig <= do you have a wireless interface there ?
[05:27] <francois> olafski: type Xorg -configure
[05:28] <SmAcKaSs> Hymn, well i see my card on eth0 in iwconfig, but the GUI network-admin is not getting anything connected
[05:28] <francois> olafski: it'll create a new xorg file in your home directory,
[05:28] <secion8> hymn, nope
[05:28] <HymnToLife> SmAcKaSs, screw the gui, do sudo iwconfig eth0 essid YOUR_ESSID key YOUR_WEP_KEY
[05:28] <francois> olafski: and then type Xorg -config xorg.conf.new, where that last part is the new file
[05:28] <olafski> francois: driver "nv"
[05:28] <HymnToLife> than sudo dhclient eth0 to use DHCP
[05:29] <SmAcKaSs> Hymn, thats along the lines of what i was looking for :-p thank you
[05:29] <HymnToLife> secion8, do   sudo depmod -a    and then    sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[05:29] <secion8> HymnToLife, I have lo, No wireless extensions and eth1 no wireless extensions
[05:29] <genii> Anyone know of some decent web frontend to blackice?
[05:29] <francois> !blackice
[05:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about blackice - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:30] <lordkeiden> also, i do a ndiswrapper -l and it indeed reportd the driver.
[05:30] <AlexC_> define "decent", genii
[05:30] <francois> olafski: are you ok ?
[05:30] <HymnToLife> lordkeiden, "driver installed, hardware present" ? do what I told secion8 in my last message
[05:30] <genii> AlexC Sorry, wrong name... was ICES2 server LOL
[05:30] <olafski> francois: eh.. I'm fine, but the pc doesn't seem to be ;)
[05:30] <secion8> HymnToLife, When i run sudo modprobe ndiswrapper i get: FATAL: module ndiswrapper not found
[05:31] <secion8> the first command ran fine
[05:31] <francois> olafski: are you stuck on a display ? with a big x in the middle ?
[05:31] <olafski> francois: no, just a bunch of errors
[05:31] <genii> Anyone know of some decent web frontend to ices or ices2 ?
[05:31] <HymnToLife> secion8, hmm, that's weird, how did you install ndiswrapper ?
[05:31] <olafski> francois: I did sudo X -config /home/olafski/xorg.conf.new
[05:31] <genii> eg: Tune selection or queuing etc
[05:31] <olafski> francois: errors: failed to initialize GLX extension, xf86openserial: cannot open /dev/mouse, mouse0: cannot open input device, preinit failed for input "Mouse0"
[05:32] <francois> olafski: ah thats ok,
[05:32] <francois> olafski: we'll fix that
[05:32] <Bobsworth> If I want to easily access a directory from my desktop is it best to create a nautilus launcher or a symlink?
[05:32] <francois> olafski: ok, open up the new file,
[05:32] <francois> olafski: change the drivers to nvidia,
[05:32] <olafski> francois: still though, it uses the "nv" driver rather than "nvidia", should that matter?
[05:32] <francois> olafski: did you do the Xorg -configure first ?
[05:32] <olafski> francois: yes
[05:32] <francois> olafski: ok
[05:32] <secion8> HymnToLife, From synaptics, I also then ran a script from http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197102&highlight=bcm+4318
[05:32] <olafski> francois: now editing the xorg.conf.new and changed the driver to nvidia
[05:33] <francois> olafski: ok, theres another step, let me look itup
[05:33] <jpjacobs> olafski, with dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg you can often solve the problem
[05:33] <lordkeiden> HymnToLife: my wifi works fine, but the gui lies... the reason that seems importand t me is cuz gui's make me feel warm and fuzzy... i an moving this hard drive to a new lappy and i know i will need to remove the current driver and setup the new card in the new lappy. i can go to the cold baren terminal...but it scares me. the word terminal has something to do with it i think
[05:33] <olafski> jpjacobs: thanks, I did try that earlier and it didn't help much I'm afraid
[05:33] <francois> olafski: for the mouse, change the line to /dev/input/mice
[05:34] <olafski> francois: done
[05:34] <HymnToLife> lordkeiden, if you don't like the terminal, Ubuntu is not for you
[05:34] <AlexC_> HymnToLife: I wouldn't say that really,
[05:34] <francois> olafski: is the driver mouse, and protocol set to auto ?
[05:34] <HymnToLife> I would
[05:35] <olafski> francois: aye.. but just a sec, says I can't save the file.. guess I should've edited as root :)
[05:35] <AlexC_> HymnToLife: If you don't like terminal, Gentoo isn't for you! I would agree with that ... but Ubuntu....you can do most without terminal
[05:35] <francois> olafski: lol yeah ok,
[05:35] <HymnToLife> AlexC_, most, not all
[05:35] <olafski> francois: done
[05:35] <secion8> HymnToLife, Is there a command to completely clean the ndiswrapper out and reinstall?
[05:35] <genii> the command-line is your friend :)
[05:35] <francois> olafski: ok, so you change the mouse, and the nvidia driver, ?
[05:35] <olafski> francois: yes
[05:35] <HymnToLife> secion8, IIRC, sudo ndiswrapper -r driver_name
[05:36] <lordkeiden> of all the linux distros, ubuntu is in a class by itself. up and above the rest, imho. i'm not leaving. but the terminal is so differant that cmd in win2k... my old comfort zone...
[05:36] <HymnToLife> then remove your ndiswrapper packages
[05:36] <francois> olafski: ok now do Xorg -config xorg.conf.new
[05:36] <HymnToLife> (but keep the tarball with the Windows drivers)
[05:36] <secion8> Yes I agree, If you want to run linux, you need to be somewhat comfy with a terminal.
[05:36] <lordkeiden> guess I'll have to study a bit  =(
[05:36] <olafski> francois: back to the old "failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module!"
[05:36] <CarinArr> olafski: have you tried envy?
[05:37] <olafski> CarinArr: I assume I didn't, unless it implicitly did that at some point ;)
[05:37] <CarinArr> !envy | olafski
[05:37] <ubotu> olafski: envy is a Python script that eases installation of the official Nvidia and ATI drivers. Please see http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html . Developers may be interested in https://launchpad.net/products/envy - See also !Nvidia
[05:37] <Bobsworth> Can anybody answer my question? ^^ Launcher or symlink?
[05:37] <secion8> HymnToLife, Thank you I will try that now
[05:37] <olafski> CarinArr: thanks, I'll bookmark that one and try it if francois runs out of options before this works ;)
[05:38] <HymnToLife> secion8, then follow these instructions, and nothing else :https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[05:38] <HymnToLife> (and please don't use this script)
[05:38] <genii> Bobsworth I like symlinks
[05:38] <francois> olafski: gimme a sec
[05:39] <joeljkp> what's the easiest, least obtrusive way to get a sendmail program on ubuntu?
[05:39] <francois> olafski: are you running dapper ?
[05:39] <hsn> hello.i wanna connet vpn server to my notebook.i us' ubuntu 6.10
[05:39] <joeljkp> i don't want to receive mail, process mail, anything, just be able to send it with a script
[05:39] <Gl3nn> Can someone help me with the setup for wireless in Ubuntu? I can setup WEP, but can not set up WPA. Have installed wpa_supplicant, but still WPA don't work. Network manager is also installed. The card is a Linksys WMP54G v4.. Help me please :) msg..
[05:39] <olafski> francois: no, edgy
[05:40] <CarinArr> olafski: it automatically removes remnants of old versions and puts things in the right place
[05:40] <Bobsworth> The problem with a symlink would be that if it were later deleted things could break
[05:40] <renelies> hello :)
[05:40] <lordkeiden> what is a goot site to unbiased reviews of linux apps and the windows counterparts? and to get reviews of linux apps that just work, and ones that are still too raw to give to a computer (not just linux) newbie?
[05:40] <CarinArr> i haven't had a single nvidia problem since i started using envy for install
[05:41] <hsn> help please.i wanna using vpn
[05:41] <olafski> CarinArr: looks good, but after all the time francois has put into my case I'd prefer to let him handle things until he doesn't want to anymore ;)
[05:41] <francois> olafski: going to send you my xorg file
[05:41] <renelies> If somebody could help me with uninstalling mpt-status, that would be nice :) It expects a daemon to be running, but there isn't
[05:41] <renelies> so apt-get fails
[05:41] <Canute_> I have kind of a strange problem. I have mounted a directory using FUSE sshfs. If i try to edit that textfile with gedit it refuses to save (something about not having write permission), however if i use nano it works like it should.
[05:42] <olafski> francois: in pastebin or dcc?
[05:42] <webben> Canute_, happens to me all the time
[05:42] <francois> olafski: pastebin,
[05:42] <webben> Canute_, I don't think I've filed a bug, but you might like to.
[05:42] <olafski> francois: excellent :)
[05:42] <webben> Canute_, I used gvim ... and it never seems to happen with that.
[05:42] <webben> just gedit
[05:42] <Canute_> webben, does it only happen with mounted directories?
[05:42] <webben> Canute_, I haven't experimented with other editors. Yes only seems to happen with FUSE.
[05:43] <lordkeiden> wow...did my last post sound like i is an iliterate indian or what?!
[05:43] <Gl3nn> Have someone a Linksys WMP54G v4 card, and WPA-encryption enabled?
[05:43] <alex_> hey I have just upgraded to edgy but I seem to have problems with windows, when I open a terminal I have its window in the top left corner of the screen
[05:43] <ircusr> hi greyghost
[05:43] <francois> olafski: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4298/
[05:44] <francois> olafski: copy that to your xorg, but keeping your make and model of video card
[05:44] <Canute_> webben, hm, okay. Got any good php editors to recommend? gedit was ok for me ;)
[05:44] <alex_> I don't seem to be able to have the right click menu neither
[05:44] <olafski> francois: just keep those 2 lines?
[05:44] <francois> olafski: reinstall the drivers, and don't override the xorg file,
[05:44] <francois> olafski: yeah,
[05:45] <olafski> francois: so "VendorName" and "BoardName"?
[05:45] <webben> Canute_, Yes... gvim. Also should try out emacs.
[05:45] <webben> but mainly gvim
[05:45] <alex_> where I should be looking at ? and what for ?
[05:45] <webben> Canute_, some people like bluefish and quanta
[05:45] <francois> olafski: yeah, thats should be enough, just keep the rest
[05:45] <renelies> yeah :)
[05:46] <renelies> Now... how to install mpt-status 1.2 when it's not in the repository?
[05:46] <Canute_> webben, thanks
[05:46] <francois> renelies: you can download the .deb file
[05:47] <Supre_Me> hi! I've been having some problems with my harddisk lately and now I want to reinstall my Ubuntu but keep my home partition as usual. But the partition manager won't apply the new partition settings. It doesn't hang or anything but it doesn't apply them. What can I do?
[05:47] <renelies> francois: and if there isn't, should I compile thing by hand then? (what's not a big deal, but I do think i'm missing some dependencies in that way)
[05:47] <usr13> I'm trying to backup a laptop HD onto nfs share using command "dd if=/dev/hda1 | gzip - > /pub/image.gz"  and it's taking a LONG time.
[05:47] <usr13> Is there something I could have done that would have been faster.
[05:47] <francois> renelies: yeah, i guess thats the only other way for you to get it,
[05:48] <usr13> (It is wireless link)
[05:48] <renelies> ok... acceptable :)
[05:48] <francois> olafski: and ?
[05:48] <francois> olafski: did it crash and walk away on you ?
[05:49] <olafski> francois: I only just managed to get that file to my ubuntu pc
[05:49] <usr13> But, really, I'm more concerned with accuracy than speed... so... well, just killing time and thought I'd see if there's a better way than how I'm doing it?
[05:49] <francois> olafski: ok
[05:49] <olafski> francois: changed the boardname, now what do I do to reinstall the driver again?
[05:49] <Foolish> In fedora I can use mount -t cifs to mount a samba share. Doing this in ubuntu results in a message saying: wrong fs type. What am I missing?
[05:49] <olafski> francois: rerun that shell script?
[05:49] <unop> usr13,  you have quite a few things working against speed .. first one nfs, second the wireless link and third the compression over these media
[05:49] <francois> olafski: type sh nvidiainstaller.run
[05:50] <usr13> unop: suggestions? _________________
[05:50] <olafski> alright doing that now
[05:50] <renelies> hmm :)
[05:50] <GreyGhost> ircusr ,hello
[05:50] <unop> Foolish,  the canonical name for cifs is smbfs .. try that instead
[05:50] <usr13> unop: what would have been faster than nfs?
[05:50] <SmAcKaSs> Hymn -- still here?
[05:51] <GreyGhost> ircusr ,and thanks .. i didn know ppl knew me in here :)
[05:51] <unop> usr13,  well, i should imagine it is faster if you create the backup image locally and then transfer it over to the nfs share later .. but it's not going to give you anything substantial
[05:51] <Lanny> ol
[05:51] <renelies> francois: how to verify dependencies before installing from a .deb?
[05:51] <ircusr> well, i do
[05:51] <ircusr> :)
[05:51] <francois> renelies: it'll calculate them when you run the install
[05:51] <GreyGhost> :)
[05:51] <olafski> francois: the exact same error again :s
[05:51] <usr13> unop: not possible to create it locally, (It is a laptop).
[05:51] <francois> olafski: whats the error again ?
[05:51] <cisco1> here's a question... why isn't bittorrent-gui available? because of wxgtk? because that's insane.
[05:51] <renelies> francois: but i don't know if I want to install it when, let's say it installs about 100 extra packages
[05:51] <renelies> :)
[05:51] <francois> olafski: did you make sure you dindt' overide the xorg ?
[05:51] <unop> usr13,  errm, well, i think you just have to brave it out then .. it's going as fast as it can go
[05:51] <olafski> francois: can't load the kernel module, screens found but none have a usable configuration
[05:52] <usr13> Trying to make do with what I have.
[05:52] <olafski> francois: I put that file you gave me in my home dir and started with "sudo X -config /home/olafski/xorg.conf"
[05:52] <francois> X ? or Xorg ?
[05:52] <cisco1> doesn't matter
[05:52] <olafski> francois: X
[05:52] <cisco1> anybody? bittorrent?
[05:53] <usr13> unop: Ok, just wondering if there was anything I could have done that would have made the process go a little faster. (But I'm pretty much stuck with copying it to a nfs share.)
[05:53] <renelies> ok
[05:53] <renelies> it's alright
[05:53] <secion8> HymnToLife, I have reinstalled and still get FATAL: module ndiswrapper command not found
[05:53] <renelies> it does nothing until dependencies are fixed
[05:53] <francois> olafski: does Xorg work instead ? if it does, do that
[05:53] <renelies> thnx :)
[05:53] <BetaCookies> brb, switching to KDE
[05:53] <secion8> I dont get it
[05:53] <unop> usr13,  errm, you using gzip?
[05:54] <olafski> francois: let's try
[05:54] <HymnToLife> secion8, that's really weird, did you follow exactly the link I sent you ?
[05:54] <secion8> HymnToLife, that is when i run sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[05:54] <olafski> francois: same thing
[05:54] <ndee> is it somehow possible to decrypt songs bought in the itunes music store?
[05:54] <francois> olafski: ok, a sec
[05:54] <HymnToLife> ndee, yes, but illegal
[05:54] <thespirit> is there any way to install redhat packages in ubuntu?
[05:54] <secion8> HymnToLife, I missed the link, Send it again I will check it out, Sorry.
[05:54] <HymnToLife> ubotu, tell thespirit about rpm | thespirit, see the private message from ubotu.
[05:55] <hiro_> hmm, I just got a small problem. I cannot open the terminal anymore. I see the terminal down at the bar and it says "Starting terminal" for about 5-7 seconds. Then it disappear..
[05:55] <minskmaz> Hi I'm having a lot of difficulty getting my ldap server set up. I'm using the standard ubuntu openLDAP configuration file with minor edits for rootdn and rootpw
[05:55] <secion8> I just reinstalled
[05:55] <ndee> HymnToLife: oh ok. That sux :D I think I have to boot windows, start qtfairuse and convert them :D
[05:55] <HymnToLife> secion8, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[05:55] <minskmaz> can anyone lend a hand with looking at this with me
[05:55] <HymnToLife> ndee, I think so too
[05:55] <cisco1> does ubuntu support any normal bittorrent clients?
[05:55] <HymnToLife> cisco1, define "normal"
[05:55] <apokryphos> !torrent
[05:55] <ubotu> Torrent clients: Azureus (Java), BitTornado (Shell with python front-end), KTorrent (KDE/Qt)  -  Bittorent FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/FAQ.html
[05:55] <francois> olafski: do modprode nvidia
[05:55] <unop> minskmaz,  you should ask in #ldap
[05:56] <cisco1> bittorrent and bittornado
[05:56] <secion8> HymnToLife, Reading now, Will let you know. Thanx
[05:56] <olafski> francois: sh: /sbin/lrm-video: not found
[05:56] <olafski> francois: FATAL: Error running install command for nvidia
[05:56] <thespirit> what way is it dangerous to install rpm in ubuntu?
[05:56] <cisco1> it's not dangerous, it just might not work.
[05:56] <juano__> thespirit: you can use alien
[05:57] <Herrfalcor> http://youtube.com/watch?v=PV4Hzjl2OL4 <-- a whole Pablo comedy show, brilliant :)
[05:57] <hiro_> anyone know whats wrong when i cant open the terminal anymore?
[05:57] <juano__> thespirit: there are some packages that will work, others wont
[05:57] <thespirit> oh ill try it out aand come back
[05:57] <unop> thespirit,  well, debian differs quite substantially from redhat/mandrake for which the .rpms were created .. some of the directory structure is quite substantially different .. so installing an rpm on a debian system is likely to place the files in the wrong places and whatnot
[05:58] <renelies> anywho... i'm gone again
[05:58] <renelies> cu
[05:58] <cisco1> that and dependencies...
[05:58] <thespirit> i want to install ymsger _1.0.4
[05:58] <secion8> HymnToLife, Ok first thing it says is for x86 only, I am running AMD64 w/ 64 bit ubuntu.  Guess that could do it. :( I followed the link for 64 bit but it was dead. Any Advice?
[05:58] <thespirit> .deb file
[05:58] <cisco1> so, no bittorrent clients then?
[05:58] <secion8> Should have mentioned that
[05:58] <AlexC_> thespirit: just double click it,
[05:59] <unop> thespirit, thats yahoo messenger right?
[05:59] <thespirit> it says dependendyis not satisfiable : libssl0.9.6
[05:59] <francois> olafski: try to stop your kdm managger again,
[05:59] <olafski> francois: this might be a bit late by the way, but I'm running the 32 bit version of kubuntu on a 64 bit CPU, dunno if that matters?
[05:59] <francois> olafski: i have a feeling it might be running
[05:59] <thespirit> ive tried installing it through apt
[05:59] <alex_> what daemon deals with the windows in edgy ?
[05:59] <olafski> francois: it is indeed running
[05:59] <thespirit> yes
[05:59] <unop> thespirit,  thats another thing with installing .rpms .. the dependencies are not installed
[05:59] <thespirit> it is yahoo msgr
[05:59] <AlexC_> alex_: metacity ?
[05:59] <francois> olafski: stop it,
[05:59] <unop> thespirit,  you need to install libssl manually
[06:00] <francois> olafski: and run the install of the drivers again,
[06:00] <thespirit> unop, but how?
[06:00] <francois> olafski: maybe it was running last time we installed
[06:00] <thespirit> only libss.0..7 is available
[06:00] <olafski> francois: it probably was, I still don't want to overwrite the xorg.conf?
[06:00] <alex_> AlexC_: I seem to have a problem with my windows,should I look in the log of metacity then ?
[06:00] <unop> thespirit,  IIRC, yahoo gives .tar.gz tarball of yahoo messenger that is not platform dependent
[06:00] <francois> olafski: well, just make sure you're using the one i sent you,
[06:00] <olafski> alright
[06:00] <cisco1> wow....
[06:00] <unop> thespirit,  sudo aptitude install libssl
[06:00] <thespirit> then
[06:00] <AlexC_> alex_: I would, or just ask about the problem your having in here
[06:00] <francois> olafski: and that its placed in /ect/X11/xorg.conf
[06:01] <thespirit> jus a sec
[06:01] <mikeballas> anyone here help me out with an install issue on PowerPC

[06:01] <AlexC_> !anyone | mikeballas
[06:01] <ubotu> mikeballas: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[06:01] <alex_> AlexC_: I did but noone answered: I just upgraded to edgy and I have a problems with windows, they all opens in the left top corner and they dont have the bar with the three buttons
[06:01] <francois> olafski: so that error was when you tried to start kdm ? or startx ? or installing the drivers ?
[06:02] <olafski> francois: I did startx this time
[06:02] <AlexC_> alex_: sounds to me like Metacity isn't even loading,
[06:02] <francois> olafski: yeah try modprobe
[06:02] <alex_> AlexC_: ok I look into it thanks
[06:02] <cisco1> jesus christ, there aren't any in your little repositories? what kind of distro is this?
[06:02] <thespirit> unop, this is the thing i get "Reading package lists... Done
[06:02] <thespirit> Building dependency tree... Done
[06:02] <thespirit> Package libssl is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[06:02] <thespirit> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[06:02] <thespirit> is only available from another source
[06:02] <thespirit> E: Package libssl has no installation candidate"
[06:02] <AlexC_> alex_: in terminal type "metacity &"
[06:02] <AlexC_> !paste | thespirit
[06:02] <ubotu> thespirit: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[06:03] <Myk0> is there any specific PPC channel to help out Apple PPC users?
[06:03] <olafski> francois: sh: /sbin/lrm-video: not found
[06:03] <unop> thespirit,  sudo aptitude install libssl0.9.8
[06:03] <cisco1> i would have thought that it would have forced me to use some blessed bt client that hooked in well with everything - but there aren't any?
[06:03] <olafski> francois: FATAL: error running install command for nvidia
[06:03] <alex_> AlexC_: you were right, I just had to invoke it: metacity, who should do that ? my session right ?
[06:03] <thespirit> that is allready installed
[06:04] <AlexC_> alex_: I suppose you could add it to your session yes
[06:04] <Bartek> could someone point me to some good, web-based RSS reader?
[06:04] <thespirit> unop, is there anyway installin yahhomsgr?
[06:04] <Bartek> something to replace Google Reader
[06:04] <Lippesack> Hi

[06:04] <cisco1> just use a firefox plugin
[06:04] <unop> thespirit,  yep, there's a .deb file here http://messenger.yahoo.com/unix.php
[06:05] <AlexC_> alex_: it's not in mine, just checked - you can add it in and if it works it works. But you may wanna find out why it's not loading on start up
[06:05] <unop> thespirit,  http://us.dl1.yimg.com/download.yahoo.com/dl/unix/ymessenger_1.0.4_1_i386.deb
[06:05] <zdogde> hi, i have ubuntu feisty installed with kernel 2.6.20-generic and the package xorg-driver-fglrx. but the fglrx driver gets not loaded... i have no 3d acceleration. modprobe says there does not exists a module called fglrx... can anyone help me? :)
[06:05] <cisco1> do any of you even use bittorrent?
[06:05] <ircusr> i do
[06:05] <alex_> AlexC_: that is what I meant where are thinks meant to load at start up ?
[06:05] <seravitae> hey, how can i 'unblock' my soundcard, it says a program is in use but it isn't.
[06:06] <olafski> francois: is it ok if we continue this later or something? my dinner is done :/
[06:06] <seravitae> i just got out of a game that uses my soundcard so i assume it's because of that
[06:06] <francois> olafski: sure, i got to go to school
[06:06] <cisco1> ircusr: what client do you use?
[06:06] <francois> olafski: you should try the envy script, see what happens
[06:06] <AlexC_> zdogde: you do realise that Feisty is in development and should not be used on a normal, every day PC, also #ubuntu+1 feisty talk
[06:06] <unop> seravitae,  check to see if esd is running -- ps aux | grep -i esd
[06:06] <francois> olafski: email me at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>if you need more help
[06:06] <olafski> francois: excellent, thanks in advance :) I will try envy, thanks for your time and see you later
[06:06] <seravitae> nup not running
[06:06] <zdogde> Alexc_ thank you
[06:06] <x-r00t-x> hey can anyone help me?
[06:06] <AlexC_> no
[06:07] <AlexC_> Ask a question!!!!!!!!!
[06:07] <unop> seravitae,  you sure you closed down all sound applications including browsers, instant messengers, etc?
[06:07] <Commander-Crowe> Hi, whenever i download something via apt-get or synaptics it slows down to like 6KB/s and then for a few seconds back up to its normal speed. Help?
[06:07] <unop> !ask | x-r00t-x
[06:07] <ubotu> x-r00t-x: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:07] <x-r00t-x> umm ok. i got problem with ext3-fs.
[06:07] <sts> AlexC_: i asked a question :)
[06:07] <seravitae> unop: yeah. ive had this happen before.. i just played ut2k4
[06:07] <cisco1> seravitae: just rmmod and modprobe your soundcard module.
[06:07] <thespirit> unop, i have downloADED .DEB FILE
[06:07] <seravitae> how can i bring my sound down and up again?
[06:07] <seravitae> i wonder what my sound module is
[06:07] <puggy> I recently installed ubuntu edgy and I only seem to have sun-java6 available to me. How do I get sun-java5?
[06:08] <IdleOne> seravitae: with the volume control
[06:08] <AlexC_> sts: I was refering to someone else as they were asking for someone to help them and not asking a question
[06:08] <cisco1> so... it's safe to assume that i'll be uninstalling ubuntu because the repository doesn't have any gui bittorrent clients then... right?
[06:08] <x-r00t-x> see nobody anser me.
[06:08] <IdleOne> puggy: sudo aptitude install sun-java5-jre
[06:08] <x-r00t-x> i cannot run ubuntu..
[06:08] <sts> AlexC_: i asked by nobody replyed :-P
[06:08] <sts> AlexC_: just kidding ;-)
[06:08] <OneOfTheMany> !ask | x_r00t-x
[06:08] <AlexC_> x-r00t-x: probably because "I got a prooblem" is not a question ... ask your question, then you will get help
[06:08] <ubotu> x_r00t-x: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:08] <seravitae> IdleOne, cisco1, unop - it just fixed itself. :)
[06:08] <x-r00t-x> Alexc90i never see you here
[06:08] <seravitae> guess it just needed some time.
[06:09] <puggy> IdleOne: java5 is not in my sources at all.
[06:09] <x-r00t-x> OneOfTheMany yeah yeah
[06:09] <thespirit> unop, you there

[06:09] <infu> hello
[06:09] <IdleOne> puggy: it should be unless they updated and removed java5
[06:09] <unop> thespirit,  yep, whats up now?
[06:09] <cisco1> seriously? nobody here knows of a gui bt client in the repositories...
[06:09] <Hoosteen> howdy!

[06:10] <daveyates> cisco1: apt-cache search bittorrent
[06:11] <IdleOne> cisco1: search synaptic for torrent and they should all come up
[06:11] <Commander-Crowe> hbaigu oh ok
[06:11] <lskd-255> when upgrading ones video card, should one be aware of a single prevailing or a variety of possible problems that may arise?
[06:11] <puggy> So has java5 been removed from ubuntu edgy?
[06:11] <cisco1> wow, all of these have a humongous amount of deps
[06:12] <IdleOne> puggy: you have the universe and multiverse repos enabled Im assuming
[06:12] <puggy> IdleOne: yup
[06:12] <bauer77> can anyone recommend a good program for playing movie clips etc...other than Totem?
[06:12] <unop> puggy,  errm, no, you probably havent enabled the multiverse repository
[06:12] <AlexC_> bauer77: vlc
[06:12] <thespirit> unop, Error:Dependecy is not satasfiable: libssl0.9.6
[06:12] <mikeballas> anyone help me out on a PPC install, having major problems with powerbook livecd install?
[06:12] <nothlit> bauer77: vlc, mplayer, totem-xine
[06:13] <bauer77> thanks
[06:13] <IdleOne> puggy try apt-cache search sun-java5-jre see if it comes up
[06:13] <AlexC_> !anyone | mikeballas
[06:13] <ubotu> mikeballas: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[06:13] <puggy> IdleOne: it doesn't
[06:13] <bauer77> ah xine is the one I forgot about...thank you
[06:13] <IdleOne> puggy: I dont understand why because I am running edgy and it is there
[06:13] <nothlit> bauer77: totem-xine is better than gxine/xine-ui
[06:13] <unop> thespirit,  try this - sudo aptitude install libssl=0.9.6 libssl0.9.6
[06:13] <mikeballas> My livecd keeps stalling into a white screen when i put in the cd, tried the 6.10 edgy ppc and alternate cd, no luck , cant seem to get the installer booting up, any ideas?????
[06:14] <puggy> unop: If I look in synaptic there are multiverse packages there, so it must be enabled.
[06:14] <unop> puggy,  do or dont you have the multiverse repo enabled?
[06:14] <cisco2> so, it's either i manually install azureus - or i install this gigantic gnome frontend
[06:14] <cisco2> fantastic
[06:14] <unop> puggy,  well, all these packages are in the multiverse repo - http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin//search_packages.pl?version=edgy&subword=1&exact=&arch=any&releases=all&case=insensitive&keywords=java5&searchon=names
[06:14] <Myk0> is there a PPC support channel?
[06:14] <Ramunas> is it just me or beryl is broken after last update on edgy?
[06:15] <AlexC_> Myk0: for Ubuntu....your in it,
[06:15] <Kajin> cisco2: Manually install Azureus? sudo apt-get install azureus should be enough to get everything working.
[06:15] <Se2> this xubuntu is so slow ...
[06:15] <Myk0> Alexc, i cant seem to get live cd running i am totally out of options read everything on the forums
[06:15] <puggy> unop: java6 isn't on that list.
[06:15] <Myk0> i tried livecd, edgy , and alternate ppc cds
[06:15] <thespirit> unop, Unable to find a version "0.9.6" for the package "libssl"
[06:15] <puggy> unop: even when I modify the search
[06:15] <AlexC_> Myk0: I know, you just asked your question about a minute ago =)
[06:15] <genii> Myk0 Since the operating system runs the same regardless of platform, most questions can just be asked here
[06:15] <IdleOne> Myk0: you holding the C down when booting?
[06:15] <Myk0> hehe
[06:15] <Myk0> thanks genii
[06:15] <thespirit> and then something very lenghty happenedd
[06:15] <unop> puggy,  errm, sorry, did you say java5 or java6?
[06:15] <genii> Ah to boot off cd, yes :)
[06:16] <Myk0> so any explainations towards the stall on the white screen?
[06:16] <mikea> I've just install ubuntu 6.10 without using mouse. I used touchpad but I haven't touchpad configuration section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Instead of it I has mouse section. How can I turn off touchpad in this situation??
[06:16] <puggy> unop: I have java6 because that's what was available, I want java5.
[06:16] <thespirit> the last line was Writing extended state information... Done
[06:16] <cisco2> Kaj: it's not in my repo
[06:16] <Myk0> i was wondering if its my video card thats causing the issue
[06:16] <puggy> unop: but I'm suggesting that list is out of date as I'm being offered 6 and not 5.
[06:16] <Se2> how to install amarok with terminal?
[06:17] <unop> puggy,  you using edgy?
[06:17] <IdleOne> Se2: sudo aptitude install amarok
[06:17] <Se2> thanks
[06:17] <x-r00t-x> ok here we go
[06:17] <St3ffen> what's a good irc client for ubuntu?
[06:17] <Se2> but how to search with terminal programs
[06:17] <x-r00t-x> x-chat
[06:17] <Kajin> St3ffen: irssi
[06:17] <IdleOne> St3ffen: xchat irssi bitchX there are plenty
[06:17] <alecjw> hi. when i set my sound card driver to ALSA, i get this error and nothign happens: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4305/ i'm using OSS instead, but it only allows me to u se 1 program at once and doesnt give me very good quality sound.
[06:17] <bauer77> what command do I use to search for a file name on the computer?
[06:17] <unop> thespirit,  well, there were two packages to be installed there -- libssl0.9.6 should have been installed -- verify with this command - dpkg -l | grep -i libssl
[06:18] <adam_> Ok. So I installed Xubuntu. It took ages. Then I fire it up, on my G3 iBook, and find: 1) No trash can. 2) I can't install OpenOffice in any easy way. 3) That when try to change the settings in the top left window, it just closes at its whim, before I can even read the list. 4) The help included stinks. So now I'm here. Anyone care to tell me how to, say, delete a file from my desktop?
[06:18] <lordkeiden> what do i unstall to be able to control cpu speed, like for power management?
[06:18] <St3ffen> okay, thanks
[06:18] <x-r00t-x> the error is ext3-fs: error loading journal. anyone can help me?
[06:18] <puggy> unop: Yes.
[06:18] <luckyone> exit
[06:18] <lskd-255> St3ffen, are you hardcore?  Load BitchX if so.
[06:18] <cisco2> okay, that gnome frontend that installed all of the useless gnome libraries was worthless- is there anything other than azureus (which i wouldn't want to install even if it were in the repository)
[06:19] <St3ffen> mmmh, i think i'll try irssi
[06:19] <IdleOne> Se2: apt-cache search amarok
[06:19] <puggy> unop: I've just noticed that in my config with multiverse it specifies the repository as edgy-backports, should that be in addition to edgy multiverse
[06:19] <thespirit> unop, libssl0.9.6 is not installed
[06:19] <unop> puggy,  let's have a look at your /etc/apt/sources.list then -- please !pastebin

[06:19] <unop> thespirit,  is there a specific reason you want yahoo messenger? doesnt gaim do it for you?
[06:19] <x-r00t-x> the error is ext3-fs: error loading journal. anyone can help me?

[06:20] <IdleOne> x-r00t-x: you also need some patience due to the fact that ppl here are voluteers and we might not know the answer
[06:20] <x-r00t-x> how do i fix it ?
[06:20] <thespirit> i want to see my baby in the webcam
[06:20] <cisco2> is there some other repository i need to add to get actually useful packages?
[06:20] <x-r00t-x> :(

[06:23] <adam_> I used a Mac until this morning.
[06:24] <IdleOne> Myk0: when booting the ppc with the ubuntu cd in the machine you need to hold down the letter C. sounds stupid I know but give it a shot and thank me later :)
[06:24] <adam_> Aha. Alright. I'll give that a shot.
[06:24] <redbox> adam_: http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2006/09/23/how-to-show-the-trash-can-and-others-on-your-desktop-in-ubuntu/

[06:27] <St3ffen> has somebody a really good guide to install xgl and beryl on a computer with a radeon-graphic card?
[06:27] <morti1s> hexiled, ytalk
[06:27] <juano__> !blackbox
[06:27] <ubotu> blackbox: Window manager for X. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.70.1-1.1ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 251 kB, installed size 768 kB

[06:27] <AlexC_> St3ffen: the Beryl wiki has a great guide on installing ... let me get a link
[06:27] <lskd-255> HeXiLed, bitchX ?
[06:27] <alecjw> x-r00t-x, i've read that i need to chmod /dev/audio and /dev/dsp to 666 to make it work, but i still get nothing. the sound manager works if i gksudo it....
[06:27] <HeXiLed> nop
[06:27] <AlexC_> St3ffen: http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu
[06:27] <steel_lady> AlexC, my question is a bit specific. I have seen people doing something, I can not reach them to ask but I need to do it again. I need to mount hard disk of another machine in the window of Conquer
[06:27] <St3ffen> thanks!
[06:28] <St3ffen> so, i have to install xgl first, and then beryl?
[06:28] <HeXiLed> its simple. lets say that there are 2 people logged by ssh
[06:28] <HeXiLed> and thet want to chat like that
[06:28] <AlexC_> St3ffen: yes, all is explained here: http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu

[06:28] <morti1s> hexiled, ytalk i said
[06:28] <Myk0> anyone help with a livecd hangup to white screen PPC issue
[06:29] <HeXiLed> checking
[06:29] <AlexC_> St3ffen: yes, of course - try it and see
[06:29] <St3ffen> okay, great :)
[06:29] <Myk0> seems as if livecd, and alternate live cd doesnt work for me, just stalls
[06:29] <AlexC_> !anyone | Myk0
[06:29] <ubotu> Myk0: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[06:29] <morti1s> alexc_, would you happen to have an idea of whether i should just go with x86 32 bit on my intel core 2 duo?
[06:29] <MarcN> St3ffen: those beryl instructions are very good.  A little more work if you are using dual screen.
[06:29] <ircusr> is it possible to boot ubuntu from a usb hard drive?
[06:29] <jackson> hi...is there a way i can configure a bittorrent client to recognise torrent files?..thx
[06:29] <morti1s> ircusr, if your motherboard supports it
[06:29] <ircusr> it does
[06:29] <morti1s> then yes
[06:29] <ircusr> how do i do it
[06:30] <IdleOne> ircusr: only if your bios support usb boot
[06:30] <ircusr> ah
[06:30] <morti1s> well, install it to the usb disk, and boot from it
[06:30] <AlexC_> morti1s: please, next time just ask everyone instead of just me =) But I would suggest getting the 32bit Ubuntu instead of 64bit, I run 32bit on my Core 2 Duo
[06:30] <ircusr> but i dont want to use the entire usb disk
[06:30] <linuxnewbie756> where is the text file i need to put a # in front of or something like that to enable backport repositories?
[06:30] <morti1s> alexc_, i did - no answer!
[06:30] <ircusr> i should partition it?
[06:30] <dcordes_> what do i need to install in order to get multi language and keyboard layout support in KDE?
[06:30] <morti1s> ircusr, yes
[06:30] <dcordes_> (i came from gnome)
[06:30] <dcordes_> edgy
[06:30] <ircusr> ok
[06:30] <Myk0> Alexc_: any ideas ????
[06:30] <xtknight> i'm using 64-bit on a core 2 duo
[06:30] <thespirit> unop help me plz i jus can t wait to see my baby
[06:30] <GreyGhost> ircusr ,i thin an OS running on an USB stic (if thats same as flash..) is gonna kill the stick soon ...
[06:30] <morti1s> xtknight, amd64 iso?
[06:31] <bryroz> Hey whats up I have a question i need some people to ponder the answer to.  My keyboard's right arrrow key does not work on my computer, however it used to.  And it works fine on other comps.  I dont have an apcid in bum and im a noob<EMAIL_ADDRESS>is my email please email me with a detailed description of how i could fix it or ignore me and i will suffer the powned noob fate
[06:31] <steel_lady> AlexC_ I forgot to tell you I am at my work conected to the network of my organization and I have username and pass for that other machine
[06:31] <xtknight> although 32-bit is faster on the core 2 duo due to macro fusion (it combines instructions to speed up).  that could account for 5-10% performance increase on a core 2 duo in 32-bit mode
[06:31] <ircusr> why you say that greyghsot?
[06:31] <xtknight> morti1s: yes
[06:31] <AlexC_> Myk0: No, I was purly pointing out the fact that saying "Anyone help me install Ubuntu on PPC" will not help you - Ask your main question instead
[06:31] <unop> thespirit,  one sec
[06:31] <morti1s> xtknight, so why are you running 64 if 32 would be faster?
[06:31] <Myk0> ah ok
[06:31] <unop> puggy,  you there? http://pastebin.ca/341450
[06:31] <AlexC_> Myk0: I'd like to help but I have no expirance of installing Ubuntu on PPC,
[06:32] <xtknight> morti1s: because i want to run a 64-bit virtual machine and i need a 64-bit host for that
[06:32] <unop> thespirit,   where did you place that .deb file you downloaded?
[06:32] <Myk0> no worries thanks , just feel kinda bad repeating the question so often until someone responds
[06:32] <GreyGhost> ircusr , maybe cos .. the OS is gonna keep writing stuff over and over again on the drive... and i dont really know how much they can take..(though i maybe totally mistaken..)
[06:32] <morti1s> xtknight, ah, valid point, but if you didn't you'd run 32?
[06:32] <steel_lady> Is it possible to install ubuntu on PPC???
[06:32] <AlexC_> yes, of course
[06:32] <xtknight> morti1s: almost certainly
[06:32] <ircusr> damn
[06:32] <morti1s> xtknight, alexc_, thanks for the input, much appreciated
[06:32] <puggy> unop: k, will try,
[06:32] <AlexC_> steel_lady: Linux runs on many many many architectures,
[06:32] <Myk0> Been trying to install ubuntu PPC, system keeps getting a white screen every time it runs the LIVECD, used alternate cd too on 6.10 any ideas guys???
[06:33] <ircusr> i've been running ubuntu from my usb drive using virtualization
[06:33] <GreyGhost> ircusr , i am not really sure myself.. i picked that up at #ros ..
[06:33] <ircusr> can that kill my usb drive?
[06:33] <ircusr> ah
[06:33] <morti1s> what are the real advantages of 64 bit, except memory allocation?
[06:33] <Khem> if I leave my machine running over weekend idling its dead on monday I have Edgy installed :(
[06:33] <Khem> How can I see what went wrong
[06:33] <GreyGhost> ircusr ,if that didnt kill ur drive.. i dont think installing it will ;)
[06:33] <Khem> I have to hard boot it
[06:33] <steel_lady> AlexC_and how does it work with installing other programs on PPC in Ubuntu, I suppose there are still much less programs than on woin
[06:33] <ircusr> well, my drive is not dead i think
[06:33] <puggy> unop: it was as I expected, I hadn't got main multiverse. Thanks a lot.
[06:33] <ircusr> then what are usb drives good for?
[06:34] <GreyGhost> ircusr ,then i suppose its not a problem ..
[06:34] <ircusr> i have a 250gb usb drive
[06:34] <thespirit> unop, on the desktop
[06:34] <steel_lady> AlexC_can you help me with this window mounting, I have a lot of work I have to do
[06:34] <AlexC_> steel_lady: afaik, you'd need to install a PPC version of software
[06:34] <xtknight> morti1s: bigger gprs (general purpose registers)
[06:34] <GreyGhost> ircusr ,i dont have any ..so i'm not sure..
[06:34] <GreyGhost> ;)
[06:34] <AlexC_> steel_lady: ask the entire channel, not just me.
[06:34] <pbureau> Khem, check dmesg or /var/log/messages
[06:34] <unop> thespirit,  ok, try this command -- sudo dpkg -i --force-all file.deb
[06:34] <ircusr> ah
[06:34] <slyfox> Need help - when I choose seesion type and Console - the only thing I get is a black screen. I tried to press cntrl+alt+F1 and nothing happens. I also tried this from my normal session: sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop   and I again get a balck screen, cntrl+alt+F1 does nothing. The only thing that works on that balck screen is CTRL+ALT+Delete to estart my laptop. That is it. Help.
[06:34] <morti1s> xtknight, i see, thanks
[06:35] <unop> puggy,  yea, i suspected you were missing a section or two -- but your sources.list was all over the place hence the one i suggested
[06:35] <GreyGhost> ircusr ,but if i read correctly ..there are some distros that wok off usb drives... so i suppose its fine to use ..
[06:35] <d0dge> I can't find almost anything through apt-get and I've tried apt-get update, but it doesn't work
[06:36] <thespirit> jus a sec the dpkg pack is being used by synaptic
[06:36] <torrrrr> I dont have any network
[06:36] <ircusr> ah
[06:36] <Myk0> why does PPC architecture give so much trouble :(
[06:36] <Khem> pbureau: checked but found nothing related to it freezing
[06:36] <ircusr> thanks for the tips!
[06:36] <puggy> unop: thanks again
[06:36] <d0dge> Can anyone help me with this? When I update, It goes thru some list and "Fetched 3B in 0s (4B/s) "
[06:36] <thespirit> tryin to install alien
[06:36] <ircusr> im downloading 6.10
[06:36] <GreyGhost>  d0dge ,what are u looing for?
[06:36] <xtknight> d0dge: that just means ther's no updates
[06:36] <torrrrr> I ping even on the LAN and I get no responce
[06:36] <d0dge> GreyGhost: I found aterm and Eterm in Kubuntu, but can't find it in ubuntu :D
[06:36] <unop> puggy,  yw :)
[06:36] <Hoosteen> quick question..anybody know how to disable the touchpad clicking on a laptop?
[06:36] <d0dge> GreyGhost: Same source ?
[06:36] <steel_lady> I asked alrerady several times: I need to mount another machine's hard disk in the window, to be able to do windows-type put and get files through that window. I have username and pass of the other machine. I have see people do it 2 ways: over Conquer browser or through simple folder but I do not know how
[06:37] <GreyGhost>  d0dge , i havent ever used it but they must be in the ubuntu repos as well.. try "apt-cache search aterm"
[06:37] <juano__> steel_lady: you want to mount a remote HDD ?
[06:37] <jharr> how can I see what channels are available?
[06:37] <steel_lady> yes juano
[06:37] <unop> steel_lady,  what OS does the other computer run?
[06:38] <IdleOne> jharr: /list
[06:38] <juano__> steel_lady: what is the remote machine ? windows ?>
[06:38] <d0dge> GreyGhost: It does nothing
[06:38] <Myk0> sorry for asking again: Been trying to install ubuntu 6.10 on a PPC powerbook, every time i boot the livecd i get stuch at a white screen , no installer, tried the alternate cd aswell no luck, any ideas?
[06:38] <GreyGhost> d0dge ,is this an out of the box Ubuntu install ?
[06:38] <jharr> IdleOne: can I search it somehow?
[06:38] <Hoosteen> anybody know how to disable the touchpad clicking on a laptop?
[06:39] <steel_lady> I am at work where they have red hat network, I am on my laptop runing Ubuntu and I need to mount the disk of my red hat desktop machine that has its name in the network, I have my username and pass
[06:39] <IdleOne> jharr: /list ubuntu will list all channels with ubuntu in the name
[06:39] <IdleOne> jharr: or it is supoposed to :/
[06:39] <thespirit> unop, Errors were encountered while processing:
[06:39] <juano__> steel_lady: and the smb.conf in your redhat machine, what permissions does it give to the HDD your mounting ?
[06:39] <jharr> IdleOne: yeah, that's what I was thinking
[06:39] <andy912> Hoosteen I guess your talking ubuntu however if its windows this will help http://photography-on-the.net/forum/archive/index.php/t-28494.html
[06:40] <IdleOne> jharr: using xchat?
[06:40] <quaal_mac> does anyone know how to change the installation from one hd to another? for some unknown reason ubuntu changed the root drive from hdd to hdc.
[06:40] <jharr> IdleOne: irssi
[06:40] <quaal_mac> how do i point it to hdc now ?
[06:40] <GreyGhost> d0dge ,yes?
[06:40] <IdleOne> jharr: I dont know irssi but the irc commands should be the same. try #irssi
[06:40] <unop> steel_lady,  well, you can get the red_hat machine to share folders in quite a few ways -- nfs and samba are the two most popular -- if the red_hat machine runs gnome -- run the shares-admin utility to help you with this
[06:40] <steel_lady> juano_ I don't have any idea what are you talking about. I am blonde. whe in principle do not have any permissions there like users. we can not install anything
[06:40] <Hoosteen> andy912: talking ubuntu :D
[06:40] <jharr> IdleOne: thx
[06:41] <IdleOne> jharr: yup
[06:41] <Hoosteen> andy912: thanks though :D
[06:41] <d0dge> GreyGhost: Um, what do you mean? I just downloaded the ISO and installed..
[06:41] <thespirit> unop, Errors were encountered while processing:
[06:41] <Crescendo> If I leave an SSH Nautilus window open, I can't open files after a period of time, and I have to restart.
[06:41] <Crescendo> Is there any way from terminal to kill the ssh connection, and reconnect, fully?
[06:41] <torrrrr> can any oen help me with a network problem?
[06:41] <unop> thespirit,  please !pastebin (not paste in here) those errors you see
[06:42] <steel_lady> unop, I have seen people just mount it like I have mounted other partitions of my disk and you have tpo put user and pass and path to that remote disk somewhere and that's all
[06:42] <juano__> steel_lady: lol, ok. well if you can access the remote PC with user and pass through window sharing and you cant see the HDD the remote pc is sharing it probably is a permission problem
[06:42] <d0dge> GreyGhost: Well thanks for help, I try to install those items myself :)
[06:42] <St3ffen> hi, ive got a question about beryl
[06:42] <GreyGhost>  d0dge yeah thats what i meant... ok try this .. http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_add_extra_repositories and then try apt-get install eterm
[06:42] <unop> steel_lady,  well exactly, but firstly you need to have a share on the other machine sharing the folder you want shared before you can do that from this machine
[06:42] <stevenb486> pretty specific question but... in firefox, does anyone know how to change the font size of toolbars and menu bar?
[06:42] <d0dge> GreyGhost: Thanks
[06:43] <unop> steel_lady,  but again, you'll need sufficient permissions to be able to share folders
[06:43] <jharr> IdleOne: heh, chanserv
[06:43] <quaal_mac> ubuntu changed my root install drive from /dev/hdd to /dev/hdc. now it doesnt boot. anyone know how i can change the settings to make it boot from the new /dev/hdc ?
[06:43] <steel_lady> juano_ no, I cen not access it because I don't know how to set that. I have seen it on other computer
[06:43] <IdleOne> jharr: chanserv? whats the command syntax?
[06:43] <sputnik2012> Hi all, anyone know of any free window x11 clients?
[06:43] <jharr> IdleOne: /msg chanserv help
[06:43] <juano__> steel_lady: try sharing the remote HDD from the remote computer
[06:43] <jharr> IdleOne: /msg chanserv list #*blah*
[06:43] <juano__> steel_lady: try sharing it, like you share a folder
[06:43] <unop> stevenb486,  edit -> preferences -> content -> fonts and colors
[06:43] <einPaule> quaal_mac, which bootloader do you use?
[06:43] <quaal_mac> einPaule, grub
[06:43] <IdleOne> jharr: ty good to know :)
[06:44] <steel_lady> unop, from what I remember, they do not put that other disk on share because I can not change any permissions on that disk
[06:44] <GreyGhost> Myk0 ,err.. ure using the ppc build of Ubuntu ?
[06:44] <Crescendo> If I leave an SSH Nautilus window open, I can't open files after a period of time, and I have to restart. Is there any way from terminal to kill the ssh connection, and reconnect, fully?
[06:44] <steel_lady> it goes in the way that you like log on somehow every time
[06:44] <Myk0> Anyone help me with a PPC install issue, downloaded isos of 6.10 PPC and alternate trying to isntall on powerbook , pop in the cd, reboot, and hold c, it seems to read the cd, then load into a WHITE screen and freeze, on all versions
[06:44] <unop> steel_lady,  well, then there is no way you can do what yoou want to do -- except approach the network/system admin and get him/her to do the sharing
[06:44] <andy912> Hoosteen http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-134865.html any help?
[06:44] <xaos> hey, can i use the 2.6.20-6 headers for the new 2.6.20 kernel, or do i have to wait...?
[06:44] <knovak> Myk0, have you tried using version 6.06?
[06:45] <einPaule> edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[06:45] <einPaule> quaal_mac,
[06:45] <quaal_mac> einPaule, thank you sir
[06:45] <steel_lady> juano_ I can not share because you can share only with desktop computers that are in your working group and it doesn't recognize my laptop as the institute machine and I can not change those permissions
[06:45] <Myk0> knovak no i have not, im downloading it now, you think it might be the issue
[06:45] <torrrrr> if no one can help, I'll just format the disk and install an other distro
[06:45] <Myk0> knovak: though it was the video card that causes the installer to crash
[06:45] <unop> xaos,  you should be able to use them -- but beware of potential problems
[06:45] <knovak> Well, im no expert, but i had issues with the 6.10 cds
[06:46] <_Falkon_> Can someone walk me through installing Open Arena on Edgy?
[06:46] <knovak> but my 6.06 CD worked fine
[06:46] <torrrrr> can any one recomend an other distro?
[06:46] <juano__> steel_lady: ok,, what ip is your laptop set to ?
[06:46] <xaos> i can always recompile the kernel modules later, hopefully
[06:46] <IdleOne> !networking | torrrrr
[06:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about networking - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:46] <knovak> and when I tried upgrading to 6.10 after installing 6.06, it only gave me issues... so I recommend sticking to 6.06 Dapper
[06:46] <HymnToLife> _Falkon_, there is a howto in the !forums
[06:46] <steel_lady> unop I can not because admin is not here and I have a lot of work to do. I have seen him to put the network address to the other machine somehow in the address line of conquer and then it asked for my user and pass
[06:46] <_Falkon_> ok thanks
[06:46] <St3ffen> torrrrr: you may try xubuntu or kubuntu
[06:46] <quaal_mac> einPaule, hmm it doesnt have anything there while booted in the livecd
[06:46] <steel_lady> juano_ where can I see it?
[06:46] <jharr> Can someone point me to the right channel for getting help with an automated install (preseed & such)?
[06:46] <quaal_mac> einPaule,  do i need to boot from the HD install
[06:46] <juano__> steel_lady: ifconfig
[06:46] <einPaule> no
[06:47] <juano__> steel_lady: do they use samba over there ?
[06:47] <torrrrr> St3ffen: what is the difference, can't get the network up and running, the infrastructure is the same
[06:47] <einPaule> quaal_mac, do you have the file system mounted (hdd was it?)
[06:47] <thespirit> unop, Setting up ymessenger (1.0.4_1) ...
[06:47] <Myk0> knovak: what type of apple comp are you using? and what issues did you have running 6.10
[06:47] <_Falkon_> btw if someone is having trouble with the cd, use INFRARECORDER and try a few different check boxes (I know you should use buffer underrun protection but uncheck a few other things)
[06:47] <thespirit> thats the last massage
[06:47] <steel_lady> juano_ they do not
[06:47] <crazy_penguin> hi all!
[06:47] <ircusr> hi
[06:47] <_Falkon_> It took me a couple tries burning, but I got one that worked fairly easily
[06:47] <quaal_mac> einPaule, originally i installed it to /dev/hdd yes. now for some reason ubuntu has changed that drive with the ubuntu intallation to /dev/hdc
[06:48] <storeyzy_bio> i want to buy a lcd monitor. where can i find a list of lcd monitor supported by linux?
[06:48] <unop> thespirit,  well, it's likely that yahoo messenger was installed and those were just warnings you saw -- try launching it now
[06:48] <juano__> steel_lady: try smb://machinename
[06:48] <einPaule> did you change the partition table quaal_mac ?
[06:48] <quaal_mac> einPaule, not that i know of.

[06:49] <quaal_mac> einPaule, maybe that changed the partition table, i dont know?
[06:49] <unop> !paste | thespirit
[06:49] <steel_lady> juano_ where on the terminal of my ubuntu laptop?
[06:49] <juano__> steel_lady: or nautilus
[06:49] <visik7> thespirit: why don't you use another client like gaim ?
[06:49] <Ace2016> Anyone here use opera?
[06:49] <juano__> steel_lady: on a nautilus window
[06:49] <juano__> steel_lady: launch nautilus
[06:49] <einPaule> no, you probably did not quaal_mac the order of the drives changed, not a big problem
[06:49] <quaal_mac> Ace2016, i use opera on the mac here and on windows
[06:49] <quaal_mac> Ace2016, been using firefox on ubuntu though
[06:49] <rockzman> can anyone help me to upgrade to feisty?
[06:50] <rockzman> http://pastebin.ca/341469
[06:50] <thespirit> visik, it does not have vedio confferencing
[06:50] <rockzman> what is wrong
[06:50] <einPaule> do you have hdc mounted, quaal_mac
[06:50] <quaal_mac> einPaule, so how do i access the correct /boot/grub/menu.lst ?
[06:50] <Ace2016> quaal_mac: does panning work properly when your zoomed?

[06:50] <unop> thespirit,  do not paste into the channel -- now, what command did you use because the one i gave you should not have given you that output
[06:50] <einPaule> go to /media/hdc/boot/grub/
[06:50] <thespirit> but does it suppert yahoo?
[06:50] <quaal_mac> einPaule, hmm in the livecd ?
[06:50] <grumillo> i have sound only on one side, any help? thanks
[06:50] <quaal_mac> einPaule,  let me check
[06:50] <juano__> steel_lady: in the address tab at the top of the window
[06:50] <steel_lady> juano_ looks like it works
[06:50] <rockzman> IdleOne, can you check the pastebin please?
[06:51] <Myk0> knovak: what type of apple comp are you using? and what issues did you have running 6.10
[06:51] <einPaule> yes quaal_mac , if you have the harddrive mounted, it will be there
[06:51] <x-r00t-x> hey can anyone tell me. where is the apt-get download those .deb file to?
[06:51] <visik7> x-r00t-x: /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:51] <juano__> steel_lady: does it ask for user and pass ?
[06:51] <Myk0> anyone have liveCD install issues on PPC with edgy 6.10??
[06:51] <steel_lady> juano_ but it shows only my scratch there
[06:51] <knovak> Myk0: i'm not running an apple comp., I just speak from experience on my PC
[06:51] <thespirit> sudo dpkg -i --force-all file.deb
[06:51] <genii> x-r00t-x: They go to /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:51] <Myk0> ahhhhh
[06:51] <steel_lady> juano_ I actually need my home folder that is shared on all the machines
[06:52] <Myk0> knovak: u have pc issues with 6.10?
[06:52] <juano__> steel_lady: you have to enter the remote pcs name
[06:52] <steel_lady> juano_ yes it asked and then suddenly it pops out only the scratch of all folders
[06:52] <knovak> myk0: yes, I did over the weekend
[06:52] <knovak> So I decided to stick with 6.06
[06:52] <steel_lady> juano_ yes I entered the remote PC name and I see the scratch on that PC
[06:52] <Myk0> knovak: i think it might be different for PPC however..
[06:52] <unop> thespirit,  what does this return -- dpkg -l | grep -i libssl
[06:53] <IdleOne> rockzman: fiesty is not stable or even near stable why do you want to upgrade ? also try #ubuntu+1 for help with fiesty
[06:53] <juano__> steel_lady: ok, what folder do you want to see ?
[06:53] <knovak> Myk0: Perhaps, I have no way of knowing though, I'm just telling you what I know, or at least I think I know...
[06:53] <juano__> steel_lady: i mean, is the HDD you were talking about in there ?
[06:53] <quaal_mac> einPaule, /dev/hdc1 is the ext3 partition. so sudo mount /dev/hdc1 /mnt/ubuntu ?
[06:53] <rockzman> IdleOne, did you saw the pastebin?
[06:53] <rockzman> see*
[06:54] <Myk0> i am trying to install PPC 6.10 edgy using the desktop iso and alternate iso on my powerbook g4, and when i reboot with the disk in it just freezes on a white screen.. anyone have experience with this
[06:54] <IdleOne> rockzman: yes and you have an error with installing python. ask in #ubuntu+1 they can probably help more
[06:54] <einPaule> if you already created the folder /mnt/ubuntu yes, if not better create a folder in the /media/ folder
[06:54] <steel_lady> juano_ with the thing you told me, I entered to that machine HDD b ut it allows me to see only /scratch and not my /home
[06:54] <einPaule> and mount it there quaal_mac
[06:54] <quaal_mac> ok
[06:54] <thespirit> unop how shall i paste the thing?
[06:54] <stjepan> what's this font: http://ubuntuforums.org/gallery/data/500/urxvt-conky20060823.png ?
[06:54] <juano__> steel_lady: thats cause /home isnt with right permissions
[06:55] <unop> thespirit,  use this http://pastebin.ca
[06:55] <thespirit> how can i show you the result?
[06:55] <juano__> steel_lady: you have to change the /home permissions in that pc you are entering
[06:55] <unop> thespirit,  once you have submitted your paste there, it gives you a URL that i can use to access it, just paste the url in once you're done
[06:55] <juano__> steel_lady: if you dont have the access to do that, try contacting someone there , administrator
[06:55] <rockzman> IdleOne, im trying to update my python version, why would i have tio go on ubuntu+1 if i am using a 6.10 version
[06:55] <steel_lady> juano_ how can I do that? I mean I have to give permissions to my laptop somehow
[06:56] <hjmills> stjepan, which one - there are two in the picture? (i dont know either but just wondering)
[06:56] <IdleOne> rockzman: you said you had an issue with upgrade to fiesty
[06:56] <steel_lady> juano_ if I could contact admin, I wouldn't be here on xchat
[06:56] <juano__> steel_lady: rofl
[06:56] <stjepan> hjmills, left one
[06:56] <juano__> steel_lady: your right..
[06:56] <quaal_mac> einPaule, http://pastebin.ca/341480
[06:56] <rockzman> IdleOne, yep sorry it is a missunderstood i am trying to install some updates, and it cant be done because of my python
[06:56] <unop> rockzman,  upgrading/changing the python version is likely to break a majority of python-dependent packages -- why do you need to upgrade python anyway?
[06:57] <hjmills> stjepan, thought so - the right one could be from the vista C font set (consolas, constantia etc) and the left i guess could be silkscreen or one of the artwiz fonts
[06:57] <HeXiLed> can anyone recommend a good app to encrypt and store passwd?
[06:57] <rockzman> unop, i dont need to, the new version of this python is included on my packages to be updated...
[06:57] <profoX`> I can choose between VMWare Server of Player, they are both free, right? What are the differences?
[06:57] <juano__> steel_lady: :P, mmm ok, well the thing is that you need to access as root from the other machine, or maybe try accessing with a user that has permissions to /home and try sharing what you want from the remote system
[06:57] <stjepan> hjmills, on the right is Bitstream Vera Sans Mono
[06:57] <_Falkon_> Can someone send me a link to the Open Arena how-to in the forums?  I searched but couldn't find it.
[06:57] <einPaule> sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/hdc1 /mnt/ubuntu
[06:58] <juano__> steel_lady: so you can access it from your laptop
[06:58] <hjmills> stjepan, oh - fair enuff - i never seemed to get it to look that pretty on my screen
[06:58] <LjL> profoX`: you cannot create virtual machines with the Player. however, that's very easy to do with external tools. also other differences i'm not entirely sure about (i think i'd read that Server has no sound, but i've been told that's not the case...)
[06:58] <einPaule> quaal_mac, any luck with that?
[06:58] <steel_lady> juano_ one question: id I go to my terminal, I can do for eg. scp to my home, why can't I mount it like this?
[06:58] <Mortuis> I hate peaceful monster
[06:58] <Mortuis> s
[06:58] <thespirit> unop, htt://pastebin.ca/341481
[06:58] <unop> rockzman,  are you upgrading to fesity by any chance?
[06:58] <LjL> the one obvious advantage of the player, profoX`, is that it's packaged in our repositories
[06:58] <Mortuis> stupid giant keeps breaking the door to my stash
[06:58] <GalaZ> if I've a file .rar ... how can i decomprime it?
[06:58] <juano__> steel_lady: this is cause of samba permissions
[06:58] <rockzman> unop, nah im just trying to update some packages on my 6.10
[06:59] <juano__> steel_lady: smb://  ----> samba
[06:59] <_Falkon_> Can someone send me a link to the Open Arena how-to in the forums?  I searched but couldn't find it.
[06:59] <quaal_mac> einPaule, getting same error message :(
[06:59] <IdleOne> !rar | GalaZ
[06:59] <ubotu> GalaZ: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[06:59] <juano__> steel_lady: if the samba protocol isnt properly configured from the remote PC then permissions arent well configured
[06:59] <Crescendo> If I leave an SSH Nautilus window open, I can't open files after a period of time, and I have to restart. Is there any way from terminal to kill the ssh connection, and reconnect, fully?
[06:59] <einPaule> the folder /mnt/ubuntu exists?
[06:59] <Crescendo> GalaZ, you should be able to right click the rar and "extract here"
[06:59] <steel_lady> juano_ so it would not change anythin just changing properties of the folder, it has to be done in samba, no?
[06:59] <sith-lord> sup?
[06:59] <quaal_mac> einPaule, yes
[06:59] <Pntkl> sup
[07:00] <profoX`> LjL: okay.. thanks..
[07:00] <Crescendo> If I leave an SSH Nautilus window open, I can't open files after a period of time, and I have to restart. Is there any way from terminal to kill the ssh connection, and reconnect, fully?
[07:00] <LjL> !vmware > profoX`    (profoX`, see the private message from Ubotu)
[07:00] <_Falkon_> Can someone send me a link to the Open Arena how-to in the forums?  I searched but couldn't find it.
[07:00] <juano__> steel_lady: actually yes, smb.conf would have to be configured properly
[07:00] <steel_lady> juano_ you do not have other idea how to do just plain login through conquer to muy homje?
[07:00] <unop> thespirit,  errm, one last try -- sudo aptitude install openssl
[07:01] <rockzman> unop, i just would like to know why ii receive this errors
[07:01] <unop> rockzman,  pastebin those errors
[07:01] <rockzman> yea sure
[07:01] <juano__> steel_lady: if you want window file sharing to work properly you would have to configure /etc/samba/smb.conf in the remote computer
[07:01] <steel_lady> juano_ even if admin would be here, they wouldn't let me change those permissions. they are a bit paranoid
[07:01] <einPaule> hmm quaal_mac I don't know then, if you are sure that the HD is called hdc1 then I don't know
[07:01] <juano__> steel_lady: lol :-)
[07:01] <_Falkon_> Can someone send me a link to the Open Arena how-to in the forums?  I searched but couldn't find it.
[07:02] <profoX`> LjL: thanks, I already sort of knew all that :) but I have a friend who wanted to know the differences between them 2 (player, server) ... I guess player will be best choice to start with
[07:02] <einPaule> quaal_mac, if you are not sure if it is called hdc1, then you can use qtparted to find out
[07:02] <Myk0> anyone know how to fix white screen issue on LIVECD PPC 6.10 install on a powerbook g4?
[07:02] <quaal_mac> god dammit this is ridiculous
[07:02] <unop> steel_lady,  usually you approach them and they do it for you
[07:02] <quaal_mac> einPaule,  thanks for the help
[07:02] <einPaule> sorry mate, q
[07:02] <einPaule> sorry mate, quaal_mac
[07:02] <juano__> steel_lady: try nfs://<remoteiporpcname>
[07:02] <IdleOne> !ohmy | quaal_mac
[07:02] <ubotu> quaal_mac: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:02] <quaal_mac> einPaule, yea i have gparted open.. hdc1 is he name of the ext3 partition
[07:02] <_Falkon_> Can someone send me a link to the Open Arena how-to in the forums?  I searched but couldn't find it.
[07:03] <LjL> profoX`: i'm quite positive that it is, for the fact that you don't have to install non-packaged stuff if nothing else. had a look at VirtualBox as well?
[07:03] <steel_lady> juano_ i went to another comp and I am there in smb.conf
[07:03] <rockzman> unop,
[07:03] <einPaule> quaal_mac, did you try dmesg | tail
[07:03] <einPaule> ?
[07:03] <rockzman> unop, ok im pastebining it
[07:03] <profoX`> LjL: nope, virtualbox is pretty new isn't it?
[07:03] <steel_lady> juano_ tell me what to do there and I will see if it lets me save changes
[07:03] <Bsims> how do I get a list
[07:03] <Kajin> Hm, is Ubuntu.com slow/down for anybody else?
[07:03] <IdleOne> _Falkon_: that is getting annoying. try searching some more and when someone has the link they will give it to you . asking every 45 seconds wont get it for you any faster :)
[07:03] <LjL> profoX`: yes, it's pretty new. the good thing of it is it's GPL
[07:03] <quaal_mac> einPaule,  running now
[07:03] <profoX`> LjL: and how does it work? like qemu?
[07:03] <juano__> steel_lady: well youll have to go to the bottom of the file
[07:03] <unop> steel_lady,  well, did you use sudo to edit the file?
[07:04] <LjL> profoX`: way faster than qemu. probably a bit slower than vmware - especially as far as graphics drivers go
[07:04] <Bsims> how do I get a listing of all packages that can be congfigured with dpkg-reconfigure
[07:04] <EdgEy> is there any way to reset the root password back to nothing as it is by default, you can't su without doing sudo passwd?
[07:04] <_Falkon_> IdleOne: k sorry
[07:04] <quaal_mac> einPaule, http://pastebin.ca/341495
[07:04] <juano__> steel_lady: then check read only = no
[07:04] <rockzman> unop, http://pastebin.ca/index.php
[07:04] <rockzman> take that
[07:04] <IdleOne> _Falkon_: np
[07:04] <juano__> steel_lady: in the /home section
[07:04] <ross> hi
[07:04] <profoX`> LjL: yea well vmware even has (experimental?) 3D acceleration now..
[07:04] <unop> rockzman,  that takes me to their front page -- :) check the URL again
[07:04] <juano__> steel_lady: if /home is shared, you should see a [home]  part in that file
[07:04] <profoX`> LjL: i'd like to try it out, but my fastest pc right now is a shameful 256MB ram pc :$
[07:05] <quaal_mac> einPaule, hdd is the ntfs drive i installed
[07:05] <LjL> profoX`: well, yes, but i wasn't talking about that (i don't really know just how experimental it is - probably quite so), just about screen redrawing speed in general
[07:05] <m0dY> is there a diff command for the file system ?
[07:05] <profoX`> LjL: doesn't really work for emulation ;)
[07:05] <juano__> steel_lady: check that there is a line read only = no
[07:05] <thespirit> unop now what?
[07:05] <Amadeo> I'm having problems with Feisty, I can't get my Network properties to open so I can configure it...it just hangs
[07:05] <vdv> hi all
[07:05] <juano__> steel_lady: and writable = yes
[07:05] <vdv>  when i transfer files from my usb flash they are all executable flag set
[07:05] <m0dY> to know the difference made to the filesystem after installing some app
[07:05] <LjL> profoX`: oh, it does... just launch a failsafe X without GNOME or KDE and run vmware/virtualbox in it, with like 192 megs for itself :)
[07:05] <profoX`> LjL: well shouldnt give too much trouble, if you disable the 2D effects in the vm guest os
[07:05] <vdv> which option to mount must i specify to do not interpret files on my usb as executables?
[07:05] <unop> thespirit,  did that install? openssl?
[07:05] <thespirit> yes
[07:06] <IdleOne> Amadeo: #ubuntu+1 for fiesty help
[07:06] <LjL> m0dY: you can use plain "diff". but of course you have to snapshot it *before* you make the change, too
[07:06] <unop> thespirit,  try the dpkg command again
[07:06] <rockzman> unop, ops hehe http://pastebin.ca/341496 there you are
[07:06] <Amadeo> Thanks
[07:06] <steel_lady> juano_ there is no home part, only scratch. can I copy the whole thing for scratch and put the title home?
[07:06] <juano__> steel_lady: that would give you permissions to read and write on your /home
[07:06] <m0dY> LjL: snapshot the filesystem ?
[07:06] <torrrrr> I have a network problem on ubuntu, can't ping even on the LAN , The network seems to be up though, static IP. Using resolvconf. Can anyone spare a hint?
[07:06] <einPaule> quaal_mac, It looks to me like the harddrive has some corruption, but I can't tell you how to check it and if it is how to repair, let me google...
[07:06] <grout> i just installed enlightenment and i went to extract something on my desktop but it didnt go to my enlightenment desktop it went to my gnome desktop, how can i fix this?
[07:07] <steel_lady> juano_ it tells me that the file is read only :(
[07:07] <juano__> steel_lady: yes, the important thing is to put path = /home   ---->your home path
[07:07] <LjL> m0dY, just type "ls -R -l /", and you get a pretty accurate snapshot of the filesystem state. pipe that to a file, and you can use diff on it later.
[07:07] <juano__> steel_lady: lol, then no luck with that
[07:07] <quaal_mac> einPaule, the dmesg command was operating on hdD i seems, not the ubuntu drive, hdC
[07:07] <IdleOne> grout: I believe enlightenment doesnt use desktop icons
[07:07] <juano__> steel_lady: you will need root access
[07:07] <steel_lady> juano_ no I can not write in smb.conf
[07:07] <thespirit> unop, http://pastebin.ca/341497
[07:07] <unop> rockzman,  what does this do for you?  sudo aptitude install python2.5-minimal
[07:08] <Bsims> how do I get a listing of all packages that can be congfigured with dpkg-reconfigure? any ideas my google -fu is weak
[07:08] <steel_lady> juano_, anything I need root access for, admin will not do
[07:08] <einPaule> oh right, quaal_mac , blind of me
[07:08] <juano__> Bsims: dpkg -L
[07:08] <rockzman> unop, actually nothing i just want to have an apt-get upgrade so i'll have the latest softwares version
[07:08] <pbureau> torrrrr, if you type lspci do you see your network card and does it identify the chipset on it?
[07:08] <steel_lady> juano_ let's try that thing with nfs
[07:08] <unop> thespirit,  sorry, not this one -- the dpkg -i --force-all ymsgr.deb
