[02:59] <misty> thank you jrib
[03:00] <zenmonk> what about ext2fsd or fs-driver for windows?  does anyone know about or use that?
[03:00] <jrib> !ext3 > zenmonk (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:00] <jrib> zenmonk: fd-driver has worked fine for me in the past
[03:00] <misty> it still did not put them back :(
[03:00] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: I am in the live CD right now, let me reboot and get into the prompt
[03:00] <misty> I did the aptitude purge, and then apt-get install
[03:00] <jrib> misty: what file exactly?
[03:00] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, k
[03:00] <misty> I need /etc/nagios2/apache2.conf
[03:01] <n2diy_> jrib: why the private messages from Ubotu? Wouldn't everyone benefit from them?
[03:01] <misty> I backed up the whole nagios2 so that if all the files get overwritten I am ok
[03:01] <khin> im not going to install anything from there cause its the wrong version of ubuntu, actually. but i was curious why i couldnt even see what was in there
[03:01] <jrib> n2diy_: too much scrolling
[03:01] <jrib> misty: what does this command return: dpkg -S /etc/nagios2/apache2.conf
[03:01] <zenmonk> jrib: is there any advantage to picking fat32 or ext2 then?
[03:02] <jrib> zenmonk: ext2 will be able to retain unix permissions
[03:02] <n2diy_> jrib: could they be redirected to #ubuntu-classroom, which is mostly quite?
[03:02] <misty> jrib: 'not found'
[03:02] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: I am at the prompt, you want me to press CTRL+ALT+2?
[03:02] <jrib> misty: ok, well I'm going to guess that you want to purge "nagios2-common" and then reinstall nagios2
[03:03] <jrib> n2diy_: I suppose, but then -classroom would be spammed with them
[03:03] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, yes
[03:03] <Dimensions> guys when mounted with live cd if i do su it asks for passwd ... what to do ... ???
[03:03] <jrib> !sudo > Dimensions (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:03] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, actually CTRL+ALT+F2
[03:03] <fujin> don't use su
[03:03] <misty> jrib: I think it's a different package, yeah I think so too
[03:03] <Stwange> I am trying to install java development kit (JDK), but that isn't listed in Synaptic. There are about 8 different javas listed, which one should i install?
[03:03] <n2diy_> jrib: ok, I feel like I'm missing a lot of good info., and was hoping there was a work around?
[03:03] <jrib> !java > Stwange (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:04] <Stormx2> Is there an easy way to find out what executables a package provides?
[03:04] <jrib> Stwange: if you have enable multiverse, you should be able to see sun-java6-jdk
[03:04] <I_Have_No_Idea> I just updated and now X doesnt work how do i reset it?
[03:04] <jrib> Stormx2: dpkg -L PACKAGE_NAME | grep bin
[03:04] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: CTRL+ALT+2 didn't do anything
[03:04] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, F@
[03:04] <jrib> I_Have_No_Idea: what did you upgrade?
[03:05] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, sorry F2
[03:05] <I_Have_No_Idea> Jrib 611packs Soooo cant tell ya there
[03:05] <spAcE> i have two computers using ubuntu w/ a kvm switch between both, is there any way i can creat a network between the two so i can transfer files
[03:05] <n2diy_> mavsman4457: F2 not 2
[03:05] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: I think I tried that but I will give it a shot
[03:05] <misty> jrib thanks for your help
[03:05] <jrib> !xconfig > I_Have_No_Idea (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:05] <spAcE> or can i transfer files through a firewire? usb?
[03:05] <jrib> misty: np
[03:05] <zenmonk> thanks for the help ppls I think I know what I'm gunn do now
[03:05] <Stormx2> jrib: Thanks
[03:05] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, be right back  brb.
[03:06] <I_Have_No_Idea> jrib: TY
[03:06] <steel_lady> can you restart soundcard without  restarting your computer?
[03:06] <Stwange> jrib: ah ok thanks, I didn't think to look under sun.
[03:06] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, back
[03:06] <spAcE> Anyone know?
[03:06] <peepsalot> yay 508MB of updates
[03:07] <khin> i dont think you can use usb, at least.
[03:07] <spAcE> A way to set up a network with two computers w/ ubuntu
[03:07] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: it either made it boot or didn't do anything and it just booted by itself, still to no avail
[03:07] <mikaragua> hello world!
[03:07] <n2diy_> steel_lady: do you know what module the card uses?
[03:07] <peepsalot> hello mikaragua
[03:07] <nn> hows ubuntu ppc?
[03:07] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, did it give you a different kind of prompt?
[03:07] <jrib> !ppc > nn (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:07] <steel_lady> n2diy_ I don't know what is module
[03:07] <eNons3nse> my thumb drive was unplugged while it was writing.  now i've got empty folders on it that won't delete.  give's me an I/O error when i try.  how can i get rid of them?
[03:07] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: my timeout in my kboot.conf is set to 10
[03:07] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: no
[03:07] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: should I type in sh first?
[03:07] <n2diy_> steel_lady: linux speak for a driver.
[03:07] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, is this kubuntu?  no sh
[03:07] <nn> jrib: not where, how :P
[03:07] <KirillZ> I need to redirect incoming traffic to localhost at port 25 and redirect it to localhost at port 26? Please help!
[03:07] <mikaragua> what program should i use that can do vpn connection like what i did in winxp which has vpn that ask for username ,password and ip address of the vpn server?
[03:08] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: no it's ubuntu for ps3
[03:08] <Stwange> am I the only one who's noticed a faster internet connection under ubuntu? I have the same network card(s), the same router, and the same provider, but it seems to download about 33% faster - is it coincidence?
[03:08] <TaJMoX> Aynone have a good guide to install ubuntu onto my computer which uses nVidia RAID card ?    I have 2 SATA disks and I can't disable the raid
[03:08] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: feisty i believe
[03:08] <jrib> nn: oh :)
[03:08] <mikaragua> anyone knows that specific program to use for vpn connection just like winxp have?
[03:09] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, when you did the CTRL-ALT-F2 nothing different happened?  how 'bout CTRL-ALT-F6?
[03:09] <mosno> mikaragua: pptpclient
[03:09] <nn> !ppc
[03:09] <ubotu> PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ
[03:09] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: I'll give that a try
[03:09] <tamubuntu> how can I get my Acer Orbicam to work on Ubuntu Feisty
[03:09] <eubey> Stwange, depends what type of download, windows restricts the number of simultaneous tcp connections, and i dont think ubuntu does, so bit torrent downloads could be alot faster under ubuntu, also the drivers on the card could be different, this allowing a small threshhold for speed increases
[03:09] <n2diy_> mikaragua: have a look in menu > system > pref > remote desktop
[03:09] <tamubuntu> I've tried everythingincluding this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=322218&page=6
[03:09] <nn> jrib: debating debian or ubuntu due to ubuntu no longer supporting macppc

[03:10] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, I have the same prob with my Ubuntu Feisty install on one of my partitions.  When I hit enter, it boots into the gui anyway.
[03:10] <Stwange> it's downloading from ftp I've noticed, haven't tried torrents yet. Not complaining though :)
[03:10] <mavsman4457> Scunizi: that didn't do anything but I just realized that when I try to boot there is an error that I haven't noticed before, would you like me to put it in a pastebin and give that to you?
[03:10] <LunatikBunnie> Blegh.
[03:11] <LunatikBunnie> Still no solution to USB Dsl modems
[03:11] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, ok.
[03:11] <Dimensions> I just reinstalled Grub with livecd ... but still when i am booting the system it stops on splash screen ... any one knows what todo ?
[03:11] <nn> LunatikBunnie: sure there is.. use the ethernet connector on it
[03:11] <KirillZ> Can anyone please help me with IPTABLES or ROUTE?
[03:11] <khin> Stwange, that plugin you recommended is only for 64 bit operating systems, right?
[03:11] <LunatikBunnie> nn : there's no ethernet connector on my modem
[03:11] <nn> ?! wth
[03:11] <nn> thats.. uncool
[03:11] <Stwange> khin - yeah, sorry. Try installing flash straight if you have 32 bit
[03:11] <chadeldridge> LunatikBunnie:  call your DSL provider then .. get a modem made in the last 4 years :-D
[03:12] <khin> gee. im starting to feel the pain of using 32bit dapper.
[03:12] <LuiCal> hello, i need help, im a newbie and i need to install a palm sync tool for gnome, please help.
[03:12] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, So this error happens regardless if you pick the recovery kernel or the standard?
[03:13] <jamie> Any one tell me a way to share processes between users equally. I.e One users can not hog the cpu wile and other has 2%?
[03:13] <d4rkmonkey_> does anyone here know much about pidgin? I've tried looking for help in #pidgin but it takes really long to get a response, and most of the responses aren't helpful.
[03:13] <n2diy_> jamie: read up on Nice
[03:13] <TaJMoX> niiiice
[03:13] <d4rkmonkey_> nevermind, I think I can figure this out myself
[03:13] <imbecile> can someone tell me the name of nmap conf file?
[03:13] <chadeldridge> d4rkmonkey_:  whats the question ?
[03:13] <Stwange> try http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/ and click download now, it should detect your architecture (well, OS) and offer it for you to download
[03:14] <d4rkmonkey_> chadeldridge, I was just gonna ask about installing plugins for pidgin, but I found an install guide in the file I downloaded
[03:14] <Stwange> i think it supports 32 bit (that's why I needed the wrapper for 64 bit)
[03:14] <n2diy_> imbecile: nmap.conf ?
[03:14] <chadeldridge> cool .. k
[03:14] <Stwange> khin: sorry, the above was for you
[03:14] <Scunizi> mavsman4457, I've gotta run.. Hopefully someone here will pick up where I left off.. If all else fails, it'd be faster just to reinstall.
[03:14] <Dimensions> can some one help me please
[03:14] <khin> i saw it

[03:15] <imbecile> n2diy_,  i tried gksu gedit nmap.conf with no luck
[03:16] <andrewkk> If I add another network card to my computer, what should I do to make the system detect it and make it a network interface?
[03:16] <khin> for general notes, ive been thinking i should download the 64 bit version of stuff since i have a intel core duo proc. but since my OS is 32 bit, i guess this is a mistake
[03:16] <n2diy_> imbecile: ok, I was just guessing, did you try the man page for nmap, that should tell you what it is.
[03:17] <makaira> Is anybody here familiar with Xsupplicant 1.2.8? I'm having problems with it locating iwlib.h, despite my having it and it being located in the correct place.
[03:17] <LuiCal> help please, i need an gnome palm sync software
[03:18] <chadeldridge> LuiCal:  what version of ubuntu are you using ?
[03:18] <andrewkk> Can I have ubuntu detect new hardware automatically, or is there a configuration file I have to edit?
[03:18] <I_Have_No_Idea> Does anyone know why After updated my system X wont start due to failed to load modules and failed to initialize core devices and such
[03:18] <imbecile> n2diy_,  i was looking around in there... is there anyway to search for words in a man page?
[03:18] <LuiCal> feisty
[03:18] <ceil420> is it possible to bring up the colour selection dialog (GtkColorSelectionDialog) without opening a program like GIMP or Agave?
[03:18] <demoncorsair> hey room
[03:18] <demoncorsair> anyone have aim
[03:18] <makaira> I_Have_No_Idea, do you have an ATI video card?
[03:18] <mikaragua> mosno: so you know winxp is using pptp for the vpn connection, right?
[03:18] <demoncorsair> I need to discuss changing my kernel
[03:18] <I_Have_No_Idea> Nvidia
[03:19] <n2diy_> imbecile: take a look at the bottom of the page, there should be an "also see" list?
[03:19] <chadeldridge> LuiCal:  the palm sync software is already included then  System / Prefs ... its there
[03:19] <demoncorsair> why doesn't make menuconfig work
[03:19] <jscinoz> Hey guys, im trying to get my SMB shares to mount every boot via /etc/fstab, yet no matter what i do only root has write access, what should i do? my /etc/fstab can be read here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28278/
[03:20] <scary> does anyone know why every time I install my sound card drivers they disappear when I reboot my computer
[03:20] <mikaragua> n2diy_, it's not remote desktop i think.
[03:20] <makaira> I_Have_No_Idea: Sorry, I'm quite new to this. I just knew there was a problem with the X1600 ATI cards and thought I may be able to help.
[03:20] <LuiCal> thanks
[03:20] <n2diy_> mikaragua: ??
[03:21] <n2diy_> mikaragua: it works here on Dapper.
[03:21] <demoncorsair> is linux-generic buggy
[03:21] <jscinoz> When mounting a smbfs share should the gid be the group name (smbusr) or id (1002(
[03:21] <mikaragua> n2diy_, you said lately that remote desktop is possible but i think not.
[03:21] <mikaragua> it might be using pptp
[03:21] <mikaragua> n2diy_, what is dapper?
[03:21] <n2diy_> mikaragua: it works here on Dapper.
[03:21] <XiXaQ> can someone tell me a while that exists on kubuntu but not xubuntu? I need to be sure I'm on the right partition :)
[03:22] <n2diy_> mikaragua: Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
[03:22] <demoncorsair> anyone here having that same problem?
[03:22] <chadeldridge> mikaragua:  rdp is built into fiesty .. and it works perfectly
[03:22] <jamie> n2diy: Is it possible to run nice on all processes,  run by a all users and share it out resources  equally. This is what I need.? I cant find any good licky on nice.
[03:22] <imac_dude> hi, any ideas how to turn off the crt monitor on the imac when another monitor is attached?
[03:22] <n2diy_> jamie: Sorry, I don't know the answer to that.
[03:22] <chadeldridge> imac_dude:  what video card do those have ?
[03:23] <jrib> I_Have_No_Idea: pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[03:23] <andrewkk> XiXaQ: do you mean file?
[03:23] <khin> Stwange, well thanks. though after installation i still cant view the trailer. i can apparently view the ad beforehand though, so i guess it did something.
[03:23] <Stwange> khin: what does it do?
[03:24] <khin> it plays the ad and then tells me to get a plugin.
[03:24] <tamubuntu> Acer Orbicam still won't show on ekiga phne
[03:24] <imac_dude> chadeldridge, not sure, 1 sec lemme check
[03:24] <mikaragua> chadeldridge, i have a m0n0wall firewall/server that has an enabled vpn pptp connection, and now i want to connect to it using this ubuntu 7.04 desktop, that is why i need a pptp  client program with gui if possible
[03:24] <tamubuntu> phone
[03:24] <XiXaQ> Andrew67, yes, hehe, a file :)
[03:24] <chadeldridge> imac_dude:  multimonitor support for laptops is horribe in ubuntu ... basically the best way to fix it is to use either the nvidia-settings or the ATI control panel to just turn that monitor off and only enable your external monitor.  Everytime you disconnect the external it will go back to internal after a reboot and then you will have to do this all over again once you reconect the external .. its annoying as hell
[03:24] <jscinoz> how can i tell what graphics card i have in my computer? can i cat something in /proc?
[03:24] <imac_dude> 0000:00:10.0 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage 128 PR/PRO AGP 4x TMDS, chadeldridge
[03:24] <andrewkk> XiXaQ: look for kdm
[03:24] <n2diy_> jscinoz: lshw
[03:24] <ponicg> jscinoz, you can try lspci
[03:25] <imac_dude> chadeldridge, not a laptop, its an old imac
[03:25] <chadeldridge> uugh .... gl with the ATI card ... but there should be a control panel application for it that allows you to just turn off the internal monitor and enable the external lone
[03:25] <chadeldridge> works the same
[03:25] <imac_dude> chadeldridge, ok ill check out the ati site
[03:25] <chadeldridge> cool
[03:25] <jscinoz> Geforce MX 400 is legacy right?
[03:25] <ponicg> chadeldridge, can't you use ati-config in a script to do so? then bind the script to a key?
[03:25] <chadeldridge> !ati | imac_dude
[03:25] <ubotu> imac_dude: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:25] <XiXaQ> andrewkk, where is it?
[03:25] <chadeldridge> ponicg:  probably but i have no systems with ATIs .. so i am spotty on supporting them
[03:26] <chadeldridge> night all .. gl
[03:26] <mavsman4457> When I try to boot up it just gives me this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28279/
[03:26] <mavsman4457> how do I fix that?
[03:26] <jscinoz> I have nvidia-glx-legacy installed and running but i dont have any hardware acceleration, glxgears says it cant find a RGB double buffered visual
[03:27] <digilink> I'm having a problem with sound, I have 2 soundcards, one is onboard and the other is an Audigy 2. When I have onboard sound enabled, I lose all sound, even though the default mixer is set to Audigy 2 (alsa mixer) as well as sound events and music and movies playback set to ALSA as well. I am running Feisty Fawn
[03:27] <andrewkk> XiXaQ: if you have shell access to the filesystems try running "locate kdm". you should get LOTS of results on the kubuntu drive.
[03:27] <n2diy_> mavsman4457: any idea what /dev/ps3da1 is?
[03:27] <XiXaQ> andrewkk, and none on an xubuntu system?
[03:28] <crimsun_> digilink: blacklist the onboard.
[03:28] <andrewkk> maybe 2-3 depending on what apps or documentation is installed
[03:28] <defcon> what are some good ways to optimize memory consumption in ubuntu
[03:28] <digilink> well I need to use both of them, will that kill it's functionality? and how do I do that?
[03:28] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: well I installed a custom kernel for my PS3 so it changed sda1 to ps3da1
[03:28] <defcon> my ubuntu often freezes and wont open apps
[03:29] <crimsun_> digilink: yes, blacklisting it prevents the driver from loading, which disables the hardware.
[03:29] <XiXaQ> andrewkk, but I've mounted the partition in /media/disk. How do I search that filesystem only?
[03:29] <n2diy> mavsman4457: Umm, what is a PS3?
[03:29] <andrewww> Im having troubles viewing my own created videos with recordmydesktop.  When i load them in VLC player it just closes really fast.  What can i do to fix it?
[03:29] <digilink> crimsun_: tnx, but that won't help me :( I need both soundcards to work, I am using the onboard for one application
[03:29] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: a video game console made by Sony wihch can run ubuntu
[03:29] <crimsun_> digilink: no way around that.
[03:29] <defcon> andrewww, try reinstalling VLC and your codecs
[03:30] <crimsun_> digilink: you _may_ have an ACPI issue.
[03:30] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: PS3 = Playstation 3
[03:30] <defcon> also try using another player cuz the file may be currupt
[03:30] <n2diy> mavsman4457: Ah, a Play Station? Sorry, don't have a clue. GL.
[03:30] <digilink> what does ACPI have to do with it? this is a desktop? besides, I already have the onboard sound disabled in the BIOS
[03:30] <andrewkk> XiXaQ: locate's output gives the full path to the files, which should tell you which drive it's on.
[03:30] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: haha sorry but does GL mean goes looking?
[03:31] <preaction> good luck
[03:31] <andrewww> defcon, at first i thought it was the whole ogg format thing, but i converted to avi and it still doesnt work.  I also have w32 codecs installed
[03:31] <n2diy> mavsman4457: No, it means good luck!!! :)
[03:31] <mikaragua> ok i got it now
[03:31] <n2diy> mavsman4457: you can do the looking! ;)
[03:31] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: it doesn't matter if you know what a ps3 is or not, it's just a kind of computer
[03:31] <mikaragua> this might be the one pptpconfig
[03:32] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: could you still help me?
[03:32] <defcon> andrewww, does the file(s) work with any other player?
[03:32] <n2diy> mavsman4457: Yes, but they are kinda new, and your the first I've seen here, playing with one, so your out on the edge.
[03:32] <andrewww> defcon, No, no player will load it up.  But for every other video i download, it works perfectly (whichever application i use)
[03:33] <pandora--> is it possible to upgrade ubuntu to the latest, without wiping out my system?
[03:33] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: that doesn't really matter, it's still a computer that will work the same way as any other PowerPC
[03:33] <defcon> must be a bug with the record desktop, it doesnt work for me either
[03:33] <n2diy> mavsman4457: I have to run soon, I'd suggest Google would be your best source of ideas?
[03:33] <KirillZ> Is there a log file for all TCP connections made to the machine?
[03:33] <khin> hi, can anyone play the trailer (which follows the ad...i can see the ad) at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0440963/trailers-screenplay-E32394-10-2 and if so, what are you using (OS version, player, plugin)
[03:33] <mavsman4457> n2diy_: screw this I'm just going to reinstall everything

[03:36] <LuiCal> pilot
[03:36] <calc> scary: removed how, unloaded or what?
[03:36] <defcon> andrewww, sudo apt-get remove recordmydesktop gtk-recordmydesktop , then sudo apt-get install recordmydesktop gtk-recordmydesktop
[03:36] <ali1234> andrewkk: just plug it in and configure with the network applet
[03:36] <khin> hi, can anyone play the Bourne Ultimatum trailer (which follows the ad...i can see the ad) at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0440963/trailers-screenplay-E32394-10-2 and if so, what are you using (OS version, player, plugin)
[03:36] <scary> calc: the kernel/sound directory is removed
[03:36] <defcon> sometimes removing and reinstalling works
[03:36] <calc> scary: interesting
[03:36] <Stwange> how do I set root.root ownership, and is there a way of copying out of synaptic? It keeps coming up with URLs in it's little terminal but there's no right click menu and ctrl+c stops the thread
[03:36] <teratoma> how do i install Java ?
[03:36] <andrewww> Will try it, thanks defcon
[03:36] <mikaragua> damn im beginning to love ubuntu
[03:36] <calc> scary: not sure why that happens, no
[03:36] <onexused> What can I do to let other computers on my network access the DNS server(s) this computer uses?  I have dialup and the DNS IP often changes.
[03:37] <defcon> andrewww, np
[03:37] <Stwange> teratoma: enable multiverse synaptic and look under sun-java or something similar
[03:37] <scary> calc: do you have any idea who would know?
[03:37] <n2diy> mavsman4457: still there?
[03:37] <Stwange> teratoma: not synaptic, repository, use synaptic to find it
[03:37] <calc> scary: maybe someone else in here
[03:37] <wiglaf> Is it possible to set time limits on user accounts? If so, how? (I'm looking for some parental control)
[03:37] <onexused> Or, how could I make this computer a DNS server?
[03:37] <Hizzeh> Man
[03:37] <LuiCal> please help me, i dont know how to setup my palm in gnome pilot
[03:37] <Hizzeh> I couldn't get it to work :(
[03:38] <Hizzeh> ndiswrapper failed me
[03:38] <Hizzeh> I couldn't find out how to install it
[03:38] <Hizzeh> So it appears I also have to download some source for it?
[03:38] <Hizzeh> and the ATI drivers from the website didn't want to run, either
[03:38] <aneviltrend> Is it possible for me to add a second IDE drive and create a raid 1 as my boot disk, without having to reinstall ubuntu?
[03:38] <ali1234> onexused: other machines on your network should not need to know the dial up ip, they cannot use it anyway
[03:38] <MSIGuy> Anyone know where I can find a "FBI looking" theme for Gnome's login page?
[03:38] <Hizzeh> I have the 64 bit of ubuntu installed (AMD), so I downloaded the linux version of the ATI drivers but it didn't want to run
[03:39] <ali1234> onexused: just set up nat instead
[03:39] <MSIGuy> Or like CIA or NSA or something like that?  Just with the logo and the login box?  I think that would be sweet...  lol
[03:39] <onexused> ali1234: How can I do that?
[03:39] <n2diy> wiglaf: research linux kiosks.
[03:39] <wiglaf> n2diy: thanks...I'll google away
[03:39] <onexused> !NAT
[03:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nat - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:39] <n2diy> wiglaf: GL
[03:40] <pike_> MSIGuy: i have an fbi grub theme i put together :)
[03:40] <Ai-> I have a web server machine at home using XP Pro SP2 and Apache2. I set up everything right, I can see the page when I go localhost. I forwarded port 80 (default) in my router but it cannot be accessed from outside of network. I also tested it with firewall on (allow port80) and off. I'm thinking of switching to ubuntu with apache2 if it solves this problem. Thanks
[03:40] <MSIGuy> pike_, cool?  Can I see/have it?  lol
[03:40] <ali1234> onexused: i only know how to do it the hard way :)
[03:41] <aneviltrend> Ai-: your isp could be blocking port 80
[03:41] <onexused> ali1234: okay.  I'll look it up then : )
[03:41] <ali1234> onexused: there's probably some ubuntu package that will do it all for you, but i use a separate router
[03:41] <Ai-> Ah forgot about my ISP,
[03:41] <Ai-> thanks aneviltrend
[03:41] <Ai-> ill check it
[03:41] <aneviltrend> @Ai- np
[03:41] <Amelie21> what is the name of the dark spot people have under the eyes when they dont sleep ... i am french and want to know the english word :)
[03:41] <LuiCal> please help me, dont know how to setup my palm in gnome pilot
[03:41] <pike_> MSIGuy: no ;p though its easy enough to do yourself. if you had any questions ill be in chan tomorrow
[03:41] <onexused> ali1234: ok
[03:41] <MSIGuy> Okay.
[03:42] <andrewww> decon, still no luck.  Though, i did sudo vlc player to see if any errors came up and it spit this back at me...http://www.privatepaste.com/cdvxUbE1YE
[03:42] <pike_> Amelie21: bags under the eyes
[03:42] <Amelie21> orly ?
[03:42] <Hizzeh> Hey, could anyone help me with several issues I'm having with Ubuntu? They're all very basic, but today is my first day running any linux distro ever. I don't want to spam up #ubuntu, so if anyone would be willing to help me in a PM, I'd be thrilled :D
[03:42] <imbecile> can anybody tell me how to fix this? Failed to find device eth0 which was referenced in /proc/net/route
[03:42] <scary> anyone know how to stop my alsa drivers from being removed on reboot?
[03:42] <vip3rousmango> Hizzeh: just ask your questions
[03:42] <pike_> Amelie21: yeah. that is most common phrase
[03:42] <Hizzeh> ok
[03:43] <ali1234> imbecile: er, did you change network cards?
[03:43] <Amelie21> thanks !!!
[03:43] <pike_> Amelie21: probably not as poetic is french :)
[03:43] <Hizzeh> #1: Does anyone know if ATI has Linux capable drivers for Ubuntu 64 bit for AMD computers? Their download for the x86_64 seems to only work with intel computers
[03:43] <imbecile> ali1234,  well i'm trying to run from my wireless card not a wired connection
[03:43] <Amelie21> in french its ... black butter eyes ...
[03:44] <vip3rousmango> Amelie21: ok that sounds odd..
[03:44] <Amelie21> fuckyea
[03:44] <Hizzeh> #2 What do I need to install properlly ndiswrapper? I downloaded ndiswrapper-1.47.tar.gz on my windows side, burned it to a disk, and put it on my Ubuntu side (to get my linksys adapte rworking for wifi), but I couldn't find out how to get it installed
[03:44] <Hizzeh> adapter working*
[03:44] <ali1234> imbecile: oookay. did you go editing conf file or something? eth0 should still be around unless you unplugged it
[03:44] <Hizzeh> #3 How do I specify to use my motherboard's built in soundcard instead of my PCI soundboard?
[03:44] <andrewkk> ali1234: okay so I put in my new network card and dmesg/lspci show that it was detected as a PCI device, but there is no corresponding network interface to go with it
[03:44] <khin> hi, can anyone play the Bourne Ultimatum trailer (which follows the ad...i can see the ad) at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0440963/trailers-screenplay-E32394-10-2 and if so, what are you using (OS version, player, plugin)
[03:44] <ali1234> andrewkk: ifconfig -a
[03:45] <aneviltrend> Anyone know how to set up a raid 1 with an existing drive after adding a second drive?
[03:45] <khin> ...im starting to feel the pain of using dapper, i think, here.
[03:45] <ali1234> andrewkk: otherwise it wont show up until it is configured
[03:45] <slestak> my old edgy install, upgraded to feisty, is working fine.  the original install auto sized / at only 280M, and assigned gigs to the other file systems.  my / is completely filled up, ive cleaned /root down to the bone.  cant seen to find where the 280M is used.
[03:45] <khin> ive tried mplayer, totem and vlc plugins for firefox and they all fail
[03:45] <imbecile> ali1234,  it is unplugged.. i havent edited the file yet because i cant fin it... the man page is 2500 lines long
[03:45] <andrewkk> ali1234: alright thanks.
[03:45] <khin> i cant figure out what is going on
[03:45] <slestak> ive been using du -h --max-depth=1, but with the other 7-8 fs's its getting lost in the fray

[03:46] <jscinoz> Hey guys, im trying to get my SMB shares to mount every boot via /etc/fstab, yet no matter what i do only root has write access, what should i do? my /etc/fstab can be read here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28278/
[03:46] <vip3rousmango> Hizzeh: You need to get Driver Manager from Synaptic Package Installer, and Restricted Drivers Package
[03:46] <imbecile> ali1234,  im trying to setup nmap
[03:46] <KirillZ> Anybody knows how to see open network connections to your Ubuntu computer?
[03:46] <ali1234> imbecile: you shouldnt need to edit the file... the network applet should handle it all for you
[03:46] <slestak> KirillZ: netstat -an
[03:46] <ali1234> imbecile: and nmap doesnt need any setup
[03:46] <MrXorg> Can anyone tell how to replace xorg.conf with a backup?
[03:46] <Hizzeh> What do they do, vip3rous, and does that only apply to my first question?
[03:46] <KirillZ> slestak: thank you
[03:47] <kitche> MrXorg: cp <backup> <file you want to replace>
[03:47] <slestak> KirillZ: netstat has lots of output, may need to look at the man page
[03:47] <imbecile> ali1234,  i dont quite understand what the error means then
[03:47] <lgc> Hi. How can I login to the server? /msg nickserv what?
[03:47] <fujin> I'm trying to mirror two servers, have just finished installing the second one. What tool can I use to provide a list of installed packages to the second server? dpkg something?
[03:47] <palomer> hey guys
[03:47] <MrXorg> Thanks kit
[03:47] <palomer> I have an ssh account
[03:47] <Pelo> lgc,  /nickserv help
[03:47] <ali1234> imbecile: it means you dont have an eth0 anymore because you unplugged it.
[03:47] <lgc> Pelo, thanks.
[03:47] <khin> anyway, im giving up. ill make a note to give it a go on feisty when i get a new box
[03:47] <ali1234> imbecile: your wifi nic will not be called eth0, but maybe wl0 or ath0 or something
[03:48] <vip3rousmango> Hizzeh: No, they apply for #2 and #3
[03:48] <d4rkmonkey_> my wifi is eth1
[03:48] <d4rkmonkey_> :D
[03:48] <vip3rousmango> Hizzeh: er.. sorry, only #3
[03:48] <ali1234> imbecile: yes, or maybe eth1
[03:48] <d4rkmonkey_> :D
[03:48] <nimbo> KirillZ: etherape
[03:48] <Hizzeh> alrighty, vip3rous
[03:48] <Hizzeh> my main concern is getting my wireless adapter working
[03:49] <imbecile> ali1234,  its eth1,  when i do a scan though it tells me hundreds of ports are open
[03:49] <khin> you may find ifconfig eth<num> informative
[03:49] <Hizzeh> I'm using a WUSB54GSC linksys adapter
[03:49] <ali1234> imbecile: and?
[03:49] <khin> for connection information
[03:49] <Hizzeh> so to get that installed, I need ndiswrapper installed, right?
[03:49] <Hizzeh> But I Can't figure out how to install ndiswrapper
[03:49] <KirillZ> nimbo: app? I need to know if anybody is connected on port 26
[03:49] <Pelo> !enter | Hizzeh
[03:49] <ubotu> Hizzeh: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:49] <nimbo> KirillZ: lsof -i :26
[03:49] <nimbo> iirc
[03:49] <imbecile> ali1234,  why would it say all those are open?
[03:49] <Hizzeh> k
[03:49] <Pelo> !wifi | Hizzeh
[03:49] <ubotu> Hizzeh: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:50] <ali1234> imbecile: i dont know. pastebin the output and maybe i can tell you
[03:50] <Pelo> Hizzeh, sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper
[03:50] <ali1234> imbecile: maybe because they are open?
[03:50] <linxeh> is there a viable set of packages for an exchange replacement in the repos ?
[03:50] <KirillZ> nimbo: thanks!
[03:51] <nimbo> :)
[03:51] <nimbo> np
[03:51] <Pelo> linxeh,  exchange ?
[03:51] <Hizzeh> Pelo, when do I type that in terminal? Is that when I have the ndiswrapper-1.47.tar.gz on my desktop?
[03:51] <ali1234> imbecile: or maybe because you have some firewall that pretends to have open ports to fool scanners... who knows
[03:51] <Hizzeh> and what files do I need to download, just the one I listed above? (Sorry about the entering again :( )
[03:51] <linxeh> Pelo: yes, the microsoft email/calendar/contacts/sharedfolder/etc server
[03:51] <imbecile> ali1234, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28282/
[03:51] <Stwange> (sorry if you already replied to this, I got called AFK) how do I set root.root ownership, and is there a way of copying out of synaptic? It keeps coming up with URLs in it's little terminal but there's no right click menu and ctrl+c stops the thread
[03:52] <linxeh> Pelo: it's what powers MS outlook in many enterprises / businesses
[03:52] <Pelo> Hizzeh, you have a tar gz ?  sorry different proceedure ,   first unpack the tar.gz ,  then look for a readme or an install file , read the install file first if you ahve it it often contains instrucitons
[03:52] <Pelo> linxeh,  so your looking for a mail backend ?
[03:52] <Hizzeh> It said something about a source package. I have no idea what it's talking about. Also, what is "Universe" in reference to repositories?
[03:52] <Stwange> !root.root
[03:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about root.root - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:52] <pike__> Stwange: you are wanting to change ownership of what? typically youd do 'sudo chown username:username filename'
[03:53] <Pelo> linxeh,  isnT'  evolution decent enough for you ?
[03:53] <Stwange> I'm trying to download netbeans, and it says the installation I downloaded isn't actually an installation, and I need to download that from the website, and put it in /tmp with root.root ownership, so would that command work?
[03:53] <linxeh> Pelo: evolution is a client no ?
[03:54] <Pelo> Hizzeh, forget the apt-get line I gave you , if you have the ndiswrapper souce code  you will just have to compile it
[03:54] <ali1234> imbecile: you are nmapping your public IP from behind your natted network... results are likely to be unreliable
[03:54] <linxeh> Pelo: and no, not just a mail backend  - something that has calendar support, and the ability to send and recognise meeting requests sent in email, etc
[03:54] <Scunizi> linxeh, kontact may have an exchange component you can use to hook into a system.
[03:54] <vip3rousmango> Hizzeh: when you do sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper: it gets installed automaticaly by the terminal
[03:54] <Hizzeh> Nope, do I need the ndiswrapper source code along with the ndiswrapper-1.47.tar.gz?
[03:54] <linxeh> Scunizi: I want to replace exchange
[03:54] <imbecile> ali1234,  so how could i fix that?
[03:54] <Pelo> linxeh, sorry I got confused a bit ,   do a search in synaptic   for evolution,  see what the dependencies are and the related packages, that might give you a clue
[03:54] <Scunizi> linxeh, ah.. came in late and didn't catch that.
[03:54] <Hizzeh> Vip3rous, can I do that without internet access?
[03:55] <vip3rousmango> Hizzeh: you wont need the .tar.gz that you downloaded
[03:55] <Hizzeh> So I only need the source code?
[03:55] <pike__> Stwange: i guess. that seems a little strange though. itll work for a single file. for a dir youd include the -R for recursive
[03:55] <ali1234> imbecile: there is nothing to fix
[03:55] <vip3rousmango> Hizzeh: oh, no you do need the internet..
[03:55] <linxeh> Pelo: I'm not sure how the evolution client is going to help me replace a MS exchange server
[03:55] <Scunizi> linxeh, how 'bout Zimbra.com... anyone can access that. It's web based
[03:55] <Hizzeh> Crap...can't access the internet untill I figure out how to get Ubuntu to recognize my linksys adapter
[03:55] <DanaG> /usr/share/gconf/schemas/desktop_gnome_* could not be found
[03:55] <imbecile> ali1234,  well how do i get a more reliable scan then?
[03:55] <Pelo> linxeh,  I was giving you a line of inquiry to find out what you need to know
[03:55] <ali1234> imbecile: the warning about eth0 is just a warning. fix it by plugging in your eth0. and the fact that nmap is giving out unreliable results is probably something to do with your router or ISP and there's not much you can do about those
[03:55] <vip3rousmango> Hizzeh, can you not just disable the network temporairly and just directly from modum into ethernet port?
[03:56] <Stwange> pike_: everything I've downloaded so far to do with java has made me do this, well, the java documentation and netbeans - maybe I'm exaggerating. The annoying thing is I can't copy the link out of the terminal I have to rewrite it each time
[03:56] <Scunizi> linxeh, asside from that you could also set up a ldap server
[03:56] <Hizzeh> Vip3rous, can't connect this physically to a router. Too far away
[03:56] <vip3rousmango> Hizzeh: =\ sorry dude, still kinda new to this as well.. im just trying to think of ideas
[03:57] <Pelo> Hizzeh,  you have the tar gz file ?   pastebin the intall file for me so I can have a look and tell you how to install it
[03:57] <Hizzeh> I appreciate it greatly
[03:57] <linxeh> Scunizi: yeah, I can probably do everything manually, but it would be nice to get something that works as well as exchange
[03:57] <imbecile> ali1234,  ahh so i should probably open a port to connect to nmap right? i know i havent done that yet
[03:57] <Hizzeh> pastebin? Sorry, not familiar with that terminology. I can link you to what I downloaded, though...
[03:57] <linxeh> Scunizi: the closest ive seen is www.opengroupware.org
[03:57] <muszek> hi... english language question  (sorry for posting it here). "people who benefit from" (a project) are called ... ?
[03:57] <ali1234> imbecile: what? sorry what you just said makes no sense
[03:57] <vip3rousmango> !pastebin
[03:57] <Pelo> Hizzeh,  or better yet, give me a link to where you got the file , I'll dl it and have a look myself
[03:57] <ubotu> 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 (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:57] <fujin> How can I disable ubuntu's spam at SSH login?
[03:57] <Scunizi> linxeh, I've heard of that but don't know anything about it.
[03:57] <fujin> motd file or something somewhere?
[03:57] <DanaG> /etc/motd.tail
[03:58] <ali1234> imbecile: nmap detects open ports but it can be confused by nat and firewalls
[03:58] <DanaG> I believe.
[03:58] <fujin> ah, /etc/motd contains the spam I'm after.
[03:58] <vip3rousmango> lol
[03:58] <ali1234> imbecile: try nmap localhost
[03:58] <DanaG> motd is regenerated at every login.
[03:58] <fujin> by what?
[03:58] <Hizzeh> Alrighty, I'll link you to what I downloaded
[03:58] <LuiCal> please helpme, dont know how to setup my palm lifedrive in gnome pilot
[03:59] <DanaG> Some script, I think.
[03:59] <fujin> DanaG: it appears that nulling out /etc/motd worked
[03:59] <Hizzeh> Pelo: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper-1.47.tar.gz?modtime=1181699252&big_mirror=0
[03:59] <pike__> fujin: grep motd /etc/init.d/* to find the script
[03:59] <Pelo> Hizzeh,  hold on
[03:59] <fujin> I see, thanks
[03:59] <khin> well, it looks like linux is not to blame here with this trailer at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0440963/trailers-screenplay-E32394-10-2 . Vista does the same thing: plays the ad and then cannot play the trailer.
[03:59] <Lenny> can anyone help me with installing Ubuntu on a usb flash stick?
[03:59] <Hizzeh> Ok. I'm on my windows side of the same computer that has Ubuntu installed, because I have internet working on this side.
[04:00] <imbecile> ali1234,  yeah localhost works.. my friend asked me to check if he had backdoor installed still though
[04:00] <vip3rousmango> Lenny: are you freakin kidding me??
[04:00] <LuiCal> please help
[04:00] <defcon> quick question, will apt-get remove beagle remove beagle search, search database files and all beagle stored information or is there another command argument for that
[04:00] <khin> LOL
[04:00] <kitche> nmaping localhost doesn't work very well just so you know
[04:00] <imbecile> ali1234,  on a diff network
[04:00] <Lenny> i dont want the cd version ... i want the full versin on a 4gb flash drive
[04:00] <d4rkmonkey_> anyone have any good suggestions on what to do with the super key in Ubuntu?
[04:00] <Pelo> Hizzeh,  pop in your ubuntu cd and type the following line in the terminal  ,    sudo apt-get update ,   sudo apt-get install build-essential
[04:00] <vip3rousmango> Lenny: how large is the flash disk? and if you want a good portiable linux try Damn Small Linux..
[04:00] <ali1234> imbecile: oh that is someone else's ip you are scanning? well in that case maybe he does still have the backdoor. either that or he runs some crazy firewall
[04:00] <Hizzeh> Pelo, those don't require the internet, right?
[04:01] <Flannel> !install | Lenny

[04:01] <imbecile> kitche,  it showed all  the ports i opened
[04:01] <Pelo> Hizzeh, ok no it shouldn'T but if you are running ubuntu on the same computer you are using to chat here we're gonna have a problem
[04:01] <khin> wait a minute. you can actually install an OS on a flash drive? ive never had one
[04:01] <Hizzeh> yeah
[04:01] <Lenny> thx everone
[04:01] <kitche> imbecile: but localhost doesn't really go though the firewall if he has one setup
[04:01] <scary> Does anyone why my sound drivers are removed from the kernel upon reboot?
[04:01] <Hizzeh> Pelo, would you be able to outline all of the steps I'd need to take? I'm writing all of this down
[04:01] <khin> but... what is the point?
[04:01] <d4rkmonkey_> anyone have any good suggestions on what to do with the super key(windows symbol) in Ubuntu? Its sitting on my laptop all lonely because its like the only unused key
[04:02] <mosno> scary: module black list?
[04:02] <mzuverink> Is there no way to pipe messages to spamassassin in thunderbird?
[04:02] <mosno> scary: unlikely
[04:02] <Pelo> Hizzeh,  meet me in pm
[04:02] <scary> mosno: how do I check
[04:02] <scary> mosno: it's the alsa-drivers
[04:02] <imbecile> kitche,  ant commands to throw at it so it does?
[04:02] <mosno> scary: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist on my system
[04:03] <mosno> but i really wouldnt know
[04:03] <scary> It's worth a try
[04:03] <peepsalot> i have fedora core and ubuntu installed on the same computer.  they both were working fine, then i downloaded a kernel upgrade for ubuntu, and it broke my fedora boot
[04:04] <Flannel> peepsalot: You need to put the fedora entries after the `## end debian automagical kernel list` lines in menu.lst
[04:04] <peepsalot> i guess the problem stems from ubuntu overwriting the whole grub menu
[04:04] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: do you know the name of your snd card module?
[04:04] <scary> dread_pirate_rob:intel-hda
[04:04] <Flannel> peepsalot: right.  Each time you get a new kernel, ubuntu runs update-grub, which overwrites menu.lst with a new one.
[04:04] <peepsalot> Flannel, does it make a backup of the previous?
[04:04] <kitche> imbecile: man nmap but I m not sure myself but you could use netstat to see
[04:05] <peepsalot> i dno't know what the working entries looked like
[04:05] <Lenny> Flannel: The first link tells me how to download and install from the USB but i want it so i can run Ubuntu from the USB as if it was my promary harddrive
[04:05] <rustalot> what company makes wifi cards that work with ubuntu? (i.e. out-of-box)
[04:05] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: if you do lsmod | grep -in intel   does it show up?
[04:05] <scary> dread_pirate_rob:  I install the alsa-drivers and then reboot and the kernel/sound directory disappear
[04:06] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: nope
[04:06] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: how are you installing the module?  modprobe?
[04:06] <Flannel> Lenny: further down: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromUSB
[04:07] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: compiling them
[04:07] <scary> dread_pirate_rob:  I compile them, install them via mod-probe
[04:07] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: try `modrobe intel_hda`
[04:08] <Feint-Dc> hello
[04:08] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: it is not in the modprobe list
[04:09] <MSIGuy> Anyone here have an ipw2200 wireless card?
[04:09] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: are you compiling your kernel from scratch?
[04:09] <logreeval> Hi, Im using Vmware and when i try to open my virtual machine file it says "No permission to open...."
[04:09] <MSIGuy> Or I guess I mean the Intel Pro Wireless card?
[04:09] <Feint-Dc> could anyone help me with Wubi please? I downloaded the alternate iso and put it in the same folder but it doesn't recognise it and goes on to download the iso again..
[04:09] <MSIGuy> Common in alot of notebooks?
[04:09] <euphoria> hi everyone does anyb ody know ow i can get drivers for the4 dialup modem in my toshiba satellite a100 laptop, i believe teh modem is integrated into the soundcard ?
[04:09] <peepsalot> Flannel, do you know how i can recover my old grub entries?
[04:09] <pike__> !winmodem | euphoria
[04:09] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: yes, you can see a summary of my config here  http://pastebin.ca/600745
[04:09] <ubotu> euphoria: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[04:09] <pike__> euphoria: its not much help sorry ;)
[04:09] <MSIGuy> I can't put my card in monitor mode, and I found that I need to install a new driver, but I'm just verifying I need to do so.
[04:10] <euphoria> heh thnx 8-}
[04:10] <euphoria> idk even where to look to find out the hardware info model number thingos
[04:11] <ubuntu22> p
[04:12] <Flannel> peepsalot: do you have a grub.list/grub.conf whatever in /boot/grub?
[04:12] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: are you trying to compile alsa as a module? or just the driver?
[04:12] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: both
[04:12] <pike__> euphoria: lspci -v or sudo lshw is a good starting point. then id do a google search first thing like 'site:ubuntuforums.org modemmodel'
[04:12] <peepsalot> Flannel, yes i have grub.conf
[04:13] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: last time i checked you have to compile alsa into the kernel and make the drivers modules
[04:13] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: I have tried both
[04:13] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: I had the alsa-guys walk me through it
[04:13] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: They could not figure out why it disappeared when I rebooted
[04:13] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: They told me to come here
[04:13] <logreeval> anyone know how to fix the no permission in VMware server?
[04:13] <euphoria> pike__ thanks
[04:14] <dread_pirate_rob> try adding intel_hda to /etc/modules  and do a /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[04:14] <onexused> I dial to the internet using this computer.  How can I use the internet from other computers on my network?
[04:14] <teratoma> how do i make my sound work after hibernation?
[04:15] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: try adding intel_hda to /etc/modules  and do a /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[04:15] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: What is a /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart?
[04:15] <Flannel> peepsalot: grub.conf is what fedora uses by default (it's fedoras menu.lst equivalent), so you'll take the fedora entries out of that, and put them at the very end (after that comment) of your menu.lst
[04:15] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: that should restart alsa services
[04:15] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: The drivers are not loading
[04:15] <peepsalot> agh, 100% disk use on /boot
[04:15] <scary> dread_pirate_rob:  there is no /kernel/sounds
[04:16] <scary> dread_pirate_rob:  I have done that several times
[04:16] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: did you put intel_hda into /etc/modules?
[04:16] <Flannel> peepsalot: How many kernels do you have in there?
[04:16] <scary> dread_pirate_rob:  I tried it, and the alsa guys told me to remove it
[04:16] <scary> dread_pirate_rob:  It didn't work.
[04:17] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: how many snd cards do you have on you system
[04:18] <scary> dread_pirate_rob:  2
[04:19] <mzuverink> What do I need to do to get evolution to use spamassassin?
[04:19] <onexused> I have a connection to the internet on this computer.  How can I use the connection from another computer on the same network?
[04:19] <shavex> scary, if you put acpi=off noacpi in the menu.lst
[04:19] <dread_pirate_rob> scary: are you using them each for specific jobs?
[04:19] <xerophyte> Does anybody know any good open source CRM solution, other than vtiger or sugarCRM ?
[04:20] <magicmactel> anyone a bluez expert?
[04:20] <pike__> onexused: supposedly firestarter makes this pretty easy
[04:20] <pike__> onexused: you want to set it up as a gateway right?
[04:21] <scary> shavex: then?
[04:21] <preaction> xerophyte: WebGUI
[04:21] <slestak> i think my webserver install is screwed.  i have a 250M / on sda1, and a 155G lvm on sda6.  i cannot resize / since the dsik is now full, and / is not in the lvm.
[04:21] <mzuverink> Anyone know why the standard spamassassin plugin in evolution does not seem to work, even though i have spammassassin and bogofilter installed
[04:21] <xerophyte> preaction, yes
[04:21] <scary> dread_pirate_rob: my main card is not supported in linux yet, so I enabled my onboard card
[04:21] <onexused> pike_: yes, I do.
[04:21] <illriginal> anyone know if ventrilo is compatible to linux?
[04:22] <thehound666> fglrx serious help needed. I changed kernels and reinstalled the drivers. Now I can't get 3D to work for the life of me, even on the old kernel
[04:22] <shavex> scary, add it to the first... this is what it should look like
[04:22] <pike__> onexused: id install firestarter.
[04:22] <shavex> scary, title		Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.20-16-generic

[04:22] <shavex> kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-16-generic root=UUID=1d633f9f-883c-4b39-9c97-dc54bdaaf744 ro quiet splash acpi=off noacpi
[04:22] <thehound666> install produces 0 errors
[04:22] <thehound666> done exact way I always do it
[04:22] <NickGarvey> !paste | shavex
[04:22] <ubotu> shavex: 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 (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[04:22] <onexused> pike_: I'll look into it
[04:22] <shavex> then when you save it
[04:23] <shavex> scary, you save it then reboot
[04:23] <vladuz976> why does ubuntu use firefox as its default browser but for the mail client stick with evolution? wouldn't it be better to stick to both mozilla or both evolution?
[04:23] <thehound666> I tried every "fix" on the web and I need 3D
[04:23] <thehound666> :(
[04:23] <preaction> vladuz976: evolution is not a web browser?
[04:24] <scary> shavex:  thank you, I will give that a try
[04:24] <onexused> When I use 'apt-get install firestarter', it tells me the package can't be verified.  What's that mean?
[04:24] <vladuz976> preaction: there used to be a browser right?
[04:24] <vladuz976> preaction: in the last release. it wansn't firefox
[04:24] <nwbie> macogw: are you there?
[04:25] <macogw> nwbie: just came back
[04:25] <pike__> onexused: all will be well just hit y
[04:25] <kms375> vladuz976: epiphany
[04:25] <preaction> vladuz976: huh? evolution has been and always will be a replacement for Outlook, nothing else
[04:25] <kms375> not evolution
[04:25] <onexused> pike_: Okay, but what does it mean?
[04:25] <ali1234> vladuz976,preaction: yeah there is a gnome browser - epiphany. but you dont want to use it
[04:25] <vladuz976> kms375: yeah that's what i meant?
[04:25] <vladuz976> ali1234: why?
[04:25] <preaction> ali1234: thanks, don't care
[04:25] <thehound666> noone knows why fglrx always messes up when you get a kernel update and need to recompile it?
[04:25] <cg0def> is there a graphical interface for configuring alsa?
[04:25] <vladuz976> ali1234: that used to be the default browser
[04:26] <macogw> thehound666: because it has to be compiled against your currently running kernel and if it's something you installed separately and had to compile the first time, you'll have to compile it forever
[04:26] <ali1234> vladuz976: try it and see :P
[04:26] <kms375> epiphany doesnt have mail funtions and evolution doesnt have web browsing functions afaik
[04:26] <thehound666> ???
[04:26] <thehound666> I recompiled it
[04:26] <peepsalot> Flannel, i'm not sure, which ones are kernels.  initrd.img...?  System.map...? config-2.6....?  vmlinuz-2.6...?
[04:26] <vladuz976> ali1234: ok, but evolution beats thunderbird?
[04:26] <pike__> onexused: something about public keys. i honestly dont have alot of exp with debian systems
[04:26] <thehound666> but I can't get 3D acceleration back
[04:26] <kms375> thats why you cant use one for both
[04:26] <thehound666> this has made me format before
[04:26] <ali1234> vladuz976: dunno, i use gmail :D
[04:27] <thehound666> but I got too much data now
[04:27] <macogw> thehound666: the fglrx you compiled the first time is only going to work for the kernel you compiled it on.  when there's a kernel update, the one you compiled before won't work.  you have to compile it again for the new kernel
[04:27] <illriginal> Does anyone know if it's possible to get Ventrilo to work?
[04:27] <troythetechguy> I'm running Ubuntu 6.10 and cannot get the 'cpdir' command to work under bash.  Any ideas?
[04:27] <Stwange> what language is ubuntu mostly programmed in?
[04:27] <nwbie> macogw: hello there, I could not save my files because the problem is in my folder /home/owner, the permission for owner is set 1000 instead of my name, do you think I could change back to owner?
[04:27] <thehound666> read above
[04:27] <thehound666> I DID recompile
[04:27] <thehound666> 8 times to be exact
[04:27] <preaction> Stwange: ubuntu is based on GNU software, written mostly in C/C++
[04:27] <NickGarvey> 9 could be the charm
[04:27] <macogw> nwbie: is xp your other partition?
[04:27] <cg0def> Stwange: which part of Ubuntu?
[04:28] <nwbie> macogw: yes
[04:28] <macogw> nwbie: you can yank the files into your xp partition while booted on xp
[04:28] <thehound666> is there any fix to this that's known to work?
[04:28] <Newbean> May i but in?
[04:28] <preaction> troythetechguy: what is "cpdir"? do you mean "cp -R" ?
[04:28] <macogw> nwbie: http://www.fs-driver.org/download.html
[04:28] <Newbean> i have a question myself?
[04:28] <Stwange> thanks :)
[04:28] <nwbie> macogw: ok
[04:28] <macogw> nwbie: thats a driver for windows for ext2.  itll work for ext3 too.  then you can backup into windows
[04:28] <troythetechguy> preaction, Yes.  cp -r works, but the book I'm using says cpdir.
[04:29] <peepsalot> Flannel, i was updating from edgy to feisty, and i got a little tooltip warning from the systray that the partition was full.  but it didn't look like a solid error, and as far as I can tell the upgrade completed successfully
[04:29] <peepsalot> not sure though
[04:29] <thehound666> I tried all 3 fixes in wiki.cchtml.com
[04:29] <Stwange> cg0def: the OS itself, not including the GUI, is that split down further?
[04:29] <thehound666> and tried a few others
[04:29] <peepsalot> it's only 100mb /boot
[04:29] <troythetechguy> preaction, Is cpdir an older version of cp -r, and maybe is not in the version of bash I'm running?
[04:29] <macogw> troythetechguy: possible
[04:29] <nwbie> macowg: all right, I'll try that thanks
[04:30] <jp79> anyone here set up mythtv before?
[04:30] <Newbean> anyone know how to make a rar into a .zar for linux using windows?
[04:30] <cg0def> Stwange: well there is a lot of code in python but that is mostly gui programs. The OS itself is in C
[04:30] <ant-> my /boot is only 100MB
[04:30] <preaction> troythetechguy: there is no cpdir that i'm aware of. it's not a standard system util. cp is not a bash utility, it's a system utility. bash runs other programs to do its work. cpdir is not "in bash" any more than "cp" or "rm" or "mv" are
[04:30] <thehound666> this is hopeless isn't it?
[04:30] <thehound666> I'm going to have to backup 200 gigs
[04:30] <thehound666> and format
[04:30] <macogw> troythetechguy: i just googled it and it looks like cpdir is a script
[04:30] <magicmactel> jp79: i have a myth setup
[04:30] <macogw> troythetechguy: http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/scripts/submittedScripts/cpdir.sh.txt
[04:31] <preaction> Stwange: what do you mean by "the OS"? you have a kernel, you have userspace utils, you have system utils, you have X (the GUI). if you went line-by-line, most would be written in C/C++
[04:31] <peepsalot> i'm not sure which things I can safely delete from /boot
[04:31] <imbecile> i cannot get this to install as per instructions for feisty any suggestions? wget http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/20989/rubygems-0.9.4.tgz /usr/local
[04:31] <troythetechguy> macogw, Thanks.
[04:31] <Stwange> preaction: mostly the kernel I'm interested in, I've done rough courses on what OSs do, but I would like to see how they work
[04:31] <Nutubuntu> troythetechguy:  if you are trying to copy an entire directory structure recursively you might want to look into the 'tar' command
[04:32] <Flannel> peepsalot: well, delete your old kernels (the ones from edgy) and you'll free some space
[04:32] <Newbean> i amign winrar will that work or....
[04:32] <troythetechguy> preaction, Thanks for the the clarification.
[04:32] <Newbean> i am using*
[04:32] <preaction> Stwange: the kernel is written in mostly C, goto www.kernel.org to get the sources for linux
[04:32] <cg0def> Stwange: kernel is written in c and some assembly
[04:32] <thehound666> I would like to know how to fix this. this driver has made me format 10x more than I format windows
[04:32] <thehound666> this is no good
[04:32] <ali1234> Newbean: you can get rar for linux
[04:33] <macogw> imbecile: did you do as the readme says?
[04:33] <ali1234> Newbean: and any other archiver you want
[04:33] <peepsalot> ok down to 44m yay
[04:33] <pike__> thehound666: get mad a switch to freebsd for a month or two. its what i do. then ill come crawling back for some reason or other :)
[04:33] <macogw> thehound666: you shouldnt need to format when X breaks on a kernel update. just recompile the driver.
[04:33] <imbecile> macogw,  i was trying to do an install as it said on a site for feisty
[04:34] <thehound666> I have been doing that
[04:34] <macogw> imbecile: well the readme for that tar says to open a terminal and as root run "ruby setup.rb" so why not just do taht?
[04:34] <thehound666> and no 3D acceleration
[04:34] <thehound666> I put it to load in modules under etc
[04:34] <cg0def> Stwange: most of the linux core is written in C and C++ is only used for programs and then you have KDE which is entirely written in c++
[04:34] <thehound666> hoping that was it
[04:34] <macogw> thehound666: did you have 3d with it on a different kernel?
[04:34] <thehound666> yes and tried it with that one too
[04:34] <thehound666> I can't get it back
[04:34] <thehound666> this has happened more than I like
[04:35] <wadachicken> Hello...I'm having some Burning Troubles
[04:35] <imbecile> macogw,  ruby: No such file or directory -- setup.rb (LoadError)
[04:35] <peepsalot> feisty has nvidia drivers in repos now?
[04:35] <macogw> thehound666: well, its not something youre likely to be able to fix unless you can sneak into ATI headquarters, steal the info on the specs for the driver, learn a lot of C, decompile the driver, and modify it
[04:35] <pike__> wadachicken: ? :-)
[04:35] <thehound666> I don't have nvidia
[04:35] <wadachicken> I downloaded the .iso, and burned the image to the disk. But It's not working...
[04:35] <thehound666> I have ati
[04:35] <Stwange> ok thanks guys
[04:35] <wadachicken> The disk doesent even show any sort of booting when I restart my computer
[04:35] <imbecile> macogw,  i can just install rubygems in synaptic right?
[04:35] <wadachicken> Just goes straight to windows..
[04:36] <Nutubuntu> wadachicken did you checksum the cd? did you set your cd as the first boot device in cmos?
[04:36] <macogw> imbecile: oh, yeah you can, so do that
[04:36] <thehound666> ok I'll rephrase. I want to get 3 D back without formatting
[04:36] <pike__> wadachicken: typically id suggest burning at slowest possible setting just in case. other than that make sure its booting cdrom before hd in bios
[04:36] <thehound666> I have too much data to lose
[04:36] <macogw> imbecile: i thought you were getting the tar because it's not in the repos
[04:36] <wadachicken> In BIOS I changed the first one to boot cd
[04:36] <wadachicken> I used slowest speed and everything
[04:36] <peepsalot> how can i get nvidia drivers installed so that every kernel update does not break x?
[04:37] <pike__> wadachicken: what does it do? just a black screen?
[04:37] <imbecile> macogw,  i think i got it now
[04:37] <wadachicken> I got it working once before, but it only got to startup screen and said said 'Ubuntu Error 20'
[04:37] <Stormx2> wadachicken: Have you booted other CDs on this machine previously?
[04:37] <raddy> Hello Everybody
[04:37] <macogw> peepsalot: if the drivers arent in the repos and linux-restricted-modules, you can't.
[04:37] <thehound666> You don't, but at least nvidia recompiles
[04:37] <raddy> I just now updated my ubuntu
[04:37] <thehound666> my wife has nvidia
[04:37] <wadachicken> pike_, after I had burned the image
[04:37] <macogw> peepsalot: youll have to recompile on each kernel upgrade
[04:37] <wadachicken> I stuck it back in and retstarted
[04:37] <Rob125> Quick question: Best-supported RAM for ubuntu?
[04:37] <raddy> now vista entry in menu.lst is gone
[04:37] <wadachicken> I hear the cd running...then it just goes up to windows, I've got it set to boot cd and everything
[04:38] <wadachicken> in the BIOS
[04:38] <raddy> can anybody help me get it back?
[04:38] <macogw> Rob125: id say thats more a matter of your hardware than the os.  for instance, hp gets evil about "generic" ram
[04:38] <thehound666> you guys have nothing for me to try outside of what I've done?
[04:38] <Stormx2> wadachicken: Did you checksum the iso?
[04:38] <pike__> Rob125: youre better off going to your motherboard manufacturers website and seeing best ram for your mb
[04:38] <thehound666> this format is going to hurt
[04:38] <wadachicken> Not sure how to do that..
[04:38] <Nutubuntu> Rob125 - "supported RAM"? that's a hardware issue, not an os issue. Check compat with your mobo
[04:38] <peepsalot> macogw, i think the drivers are in the repos, i'm just not sure what package i need
[04:38] <Nutubuntu> Oh.
[04:38] <illriginal> brb
[04:39] <macogw> thehound666: recompiling & then b****ing at ATI are all you can do
[04:39] <Rob125> Nutubuntu, pike__, macogw: thanks, but it's not for me. Wanted to verify my comments to the guy (thumbs up)
[04:40] <peepsalot> oh hell, now i don't have X or ethernet
[04:40] <Adam1213>  is there an ubuntu dvd?
[04:40] <Adam1213>  or something like ubuntu on dvd
[04:40] <Adam1213>  or a games ubunutu
[04:40] <Nutubuntu> Rob125 - well if he won't take the word of a bunch of pseudonymous strangers, he's just a plain ol' orn'ery suspicious type
[04:40] <arooni> help!
[04:40] <arooni> when i load terminal.. nothing happens
[04:40] <macogw> Adam1213: there's an ubuntu dvd in the official ubuntu book which has the alternate, server, and desktop cds all combined
[04:40] <Rob125> Nutubuntu: actually, that nails him on the head, so I'm here for him :P
[04:40] <macogw> Adam1213: i think there are also ones on amazon.com that have extra packages
[04:41] <arooni> i can't load terminall... basically it spins for awhile and then goes away (terminal never loads).... i *was* messing around with my xorg config file, but that shoulldn't change anything riht?  firefox still loads
[04:41] <macogw> arooni: nothing happens when you try?
[04:41] <Stwange> preaction: sorry if this sounds dumb, but I can't find the source for the kernels on kernels.org, I'm looking through the ftp but there are so many files with similar names I'm not sure what I'm looking for
[04:41] <arooni> macogw: it shows up in taskbar... and spins up... but i never see the window
[04:41] <OmegaCenti> is there an net install of ubuntu?
[04:41] <macogw> arooni: no, that shouldnt change gnome-terminal. try going to a tty (ctrl alt f1) and installing xterm and see if that can load
[04:41] <macogw> OmegaCenti: yeah
[04:41] <Nutubuntu> OmegaCenti it is called the Minimal CD
[04:41] <Stormx2> !verify > wadachicken
[04:42] <preaction> Stwange: doesn't sound dumb, but i can't help you. i imagine you'll want to use "git" since that's what they use for the source repository (look for FAQ on that page)
[04:42] <OmegaCenti> What If I have no CD's whatsoever...
[04:42] <nwbie> hello there, is there any way to change permissions from 1000 to root?
[04:42] <djkorn_> arooni, go to terminal.... then type firefox
[04:42] <djkorn_> then see what's the error.
[04:42] <pike__> OmegaCenti: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation has a number of options
[04:42] <Nutubuntu> OmegaCenti you'll need a bootable device with about - I *think* - 8MB capacity. Can you boot the computer in question from a USB stick?
[04:43] <macogw> OmegaCenti: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot
[04:43] <OmegaCenti> Nutubuntu: I think so...
[04:43] <Bladey> All hail the mighty Bladey!
[04:43] <Nutubuntu> Night - gotta go for now
[04:43] <peepsalot> anyone know how to install nvidia drivers from repos in feisty?
[04:44] <ubuntu22> hi, anybody knows were's ubuntu's temp dir? (to save a video from youtube)
[04:44] <Bladey> Question, can anyone tell me how to burn Ubuntu to a disc using NERO
[04:44] <pike__> peepsalot: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx; sudo nvidia-xconfig   <-- that is for cards that arent too old and not too new
[04:44] <nimbo> ubuntu22: /tmp ?
[04:44] <imbecile> whats a good beginners sql package to learn on?
[04:44] <bronze> Does anyone know how to shut down a windows PC on my local area network from linux? Preferably no password or login needed
[04:45] <Bladey> Question, can anyone tell me how to burn Ubuntu to a disc using NERO
[04:45] <envi0us> shutdown command?
[04:45] <arooni> how do i launjch the 'run app ' thing
[04:45] <Rob125> imbecile: I learned on mysql+phpmyadmin.
[04:45] <preaction> Bladey: you just do it?
[04:45] <Bladey> How...
[04:45] <Hazarath> I just burned a Data DVD from my desktop, running Feisty, to my lappy, that's running the same, but, can't read it. 'Probably no media on the disk'. Help?
[04:45] <Bladey> I have no knowledge of NERO
[04:45] <macogw> Bladey: pick the one about an image
[04:45] <rich1> is there a wireless irc?
[04:45] <Bladey> K
[04:45] <Bladey> Thanks
[04:45] <pike__> bronze: i dont know if itll work but pstools is a great resource. you might be able to get psshutdown to work with wine
[04:45] <MenZa> rich1: ...a what?
[04:45] <bayu_kr> i can't use command gmake
[04:45] <imbecile> Bladey,  left click and use nero to open it
[04:45] <macogw> Bladey: i dont have nero installed right now becuase of lack of windows, but if it's smart start, it's under "data" and then "burn from image" i think
[04:46] <preaction> bayu_kr: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[04:46] <macogw> imbecile: i think thats right click
[04:46] <peepsalot> pike, i tried but X is still broken
[04:46] <arooni> macogw: do u know how i get the 'run app' screen?>
[04:46] <pike__> bronze: otherwise if youll need to admin win boxes id recommend either qemu or vmware-server
[04:46] <onexused> Some other distros use /sbin/service to start and stop services manually.  How do I do it in Ubuntu?
[04:46] <macogw> arooni: alt + f2
[04:46] <imbecile> macogw,  oops yeah
[04:46] <rich1> MenZa irc for ubuntu wireless.
[04:46] <imbecile> Bladey,  RIGHT click and use nero to open it
[04:46] <onexused> pike_: Thanks for the info about firestarter.  It works for me.
[04:47] <MenZa> rich1: o_O. I don't quiet get what you're saying.
[04:47] <rich1> MenZa: an irc for ubuntu wireless.
[04:47] <pike__> peepsalot: did you use the nvidia.run installer?
[04:47] <peepsalot> pike_, i had previously installed nvidia drivers directly from the driver install file on the nvidia site.
[04:47] <Bladey> k
[04:47] <preaction> rich1: uhm... IRC is IRC. wireless is a way to send TCP/IP over air. what do you want?
[04:47] <bayu_kr> build-essential is already the newest version
[04:47] <preaction> rich1: do you want an IRC Channel for wireless help?
[04:47] <pike__> peepsalot: might do sudo NV*.run --uninstall  first then reinstall nvidia-glx again. i dunno though
[04:47] <preaction> bayu_kr: why not use "make" instead of "gmake"?
[04:47] <Hazarath> Can't read a DVD I burned with ubuntu on my lappy, same OS, help please.
[04:47] <peepsalot> pike_, ok thx i will try taht
[04:48] <Vaske_Car> Is it possible to make windows transparent like in Vista?
[04:48] <preaction> Hazarath: did you verify the DVD was written properly?
[04:48] <preaction> !beryl | Vaske_Car
[04:48] <rich1> preaction: yes.  i didn't want to ask in wrong rm.  i'm sorry for the confusion
[04:48] <bayu_kr> in the README, it use gmake not make
[04:48] <ubotu> Vaske_Car: beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[04:48] <Hazarath> preaction, It said it verified. Lemme check, really don't like running back and forth.
[04:48] <preaction> bayu_kr: gmake is gnu make, which is installed as "make" on ubuntu and other GNU/Linux systems
[04:48] <logreeval> is Vmware Player available as 2.0 on any package?
[04:49] <preaction> Hazarath: most likely the DVD itself is bad
[04:49] <arooni> hey folks i'm having loads of trouble with either twin view or ... xinerama.  i have 7.04, geforce fx 5200, and i can get video out on both my 1280x1024 capable lcds... but i can only get 800x600 max on the second lcd..... (both with twinview and xinerama).... suggestions?
[04:49] <pike__> Vaske_Car: i dont know about gnomes wm but i kde and xfce it is very easily done
[04:49] <shavex> is it possible to record from the speakers using the default recorder in ubuntu
[04:49] <bayu_kr> ok, i will try
[04:49] <pike__> Vaske_Car: might also /join #ubuntu-effects
[04:49] <rich1> is there a channel for ubuntu wireless?
[04:49] <preaction> shavex: sure, plug them into the microphone jack
[04:49] <pike__> rich1: here
[04:50] <Vaske_Car> pike_, installing beryl
[04:50] <onexused> shavex: If you have a cord you can connect the microphone and speaker jacks
[04:50] <shavex> well they are built into the computer
[04:50] <MSIGuy> What bittorrent client should I install that's most like uTorrent (I'm in gnome)
[04:50] <rich1> thanks.  i have to replace my hd and can't remember if bcm 4318 drivers were included in feisty kernel.
[04:50] <arooni> how do i find out out what BUSId my garphics card is on (its in an agp slot)?
[04:50] <PurpZeY> !torrent
[04:50] <ubotu> Torrent clients: Azureus (Java), BitTornado (Shell with python front-end), KTorrent (KDE/Qt), rTorrent (C++) -  Bittorent FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/FAQ.html
[04:50] <arooni> like:  PCI:0:0:1 or something
[04:50] <PurpZeY> MSIGuy: ^^
[04:50] <Stormx2> MSIGuy: Azureus is a good one.
[04:51] <macogw> rich1: they are, but the firmware isnt. for that, "sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter"
[04:51] <pike__> MSIGuy: deluge maybe but python isnt exactly c++ :) rtorrent is cli but its fast an reliable though it takes a while to learn
[04:51] <Hazarath> preaction, it verified on my desktop, it pop up, and started reading the files.
[04:51] <onexused> shavex: Maybe there's a way around it.  Why do you want to record from the speakers?
[04:51] <preaction> Hazarath: then i'd start worrying about the lappy's DVD drive
[04:51] <rich1> macogw: and will that get me full speed on wireless?  ie:  not limited to 11mps?
[04:52] <macogw> rich1: it should
[04:52] <macogw> rich1: still now wpa on broadcoms though
[04:52] <Hazarath> preaction, inserting a brand new DVD, Harry Potter 3...
[04:52] <shavex> onexused, uhm its my way of ripping things from a protected format
[04:52] <macogw> rich1: at least with network manager. i havent checked with wifi-radar or wicd + wpa_suppicant
[04:52] <arooni> hey folks i'm having loads of trouble with either twin view or ... xinerama.  i have 7.04, geforce fx 5200, and i can get video out on both my 1280x1024 capable lcds... but i can only get 800x600 max on the second lcd..... (both with twinview and xinerama).... suggestions?
[04:52] <whiteboy_> anyone know if Desktop Effects is possible with ATI 9800 pro
[04:52] <whiteboy_> ?
[04:52] <rich1> macogw: cool.  no need for wpa.  i'm only using wep.
[04:53] <onexused> shavex: oh.  If you're using mp4, for example, have you ever tried HYMN?
[04:53] <whiteboy_> probably one of a thousand asking this... because I see about 30 different answers
[04:53] <Hazarath> preaction, DVD works fine.
[04:53] <onexused> shavex: just a suggestion
[04:53] <rich1> macogw: i've read about problems with net-man on forums.  any thoughts on wicd?
[04:53] <shavex> onexused, ok thanks!
[04:53] <onexused> whiteboy_:desktop effects are possible with my integrated Intel card
[04:54] <peepsalot> pike_, i'm still getting "Failed to load Nvidia kernel module"
[04:54] <peepsalot> :(
[04:54] <macogw> rich1: ive never used it.  NM and WPA works on any drivers that use WEXT.  the ones that dont require something else and wpa_supplicant.  non-wpa will always work on NM though, AFAIK
[04:54] <macogw> whiteboy_: the open source driver should work
[04:54] <whiteboy_> onexused: yeah but Intel != ATI...
[04:54] <Hazarath> preaction, DVD video looks spiffy, and steady, as well.
[04:54] <peepsalot> i guess at worst i can go back to reinstalling the drivers after every kernel update
[04:54] <whiteboy_> open src driver is not the flgrx one correct?
[04:54] <macogw> whiteboy_: http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_feisty_beryl_ati_radeon
[04:54] <macogw> whiteboy_: right
[04:55] <peepsalot> i just don't get why i can't use the repos
[04:55] <rich1> macogw: ok.  what about connecting to open networks?  are there still probs there in feisty?
[04:55] <macogw> rich1: no. unencrypted and wep  should always work
[04:55] <macogw> rich1:  the problems are just with wpa
[04:55] <Hazarath> preaction, help?
[04:55] <macogw> rich1: i have that card in this computer and until the neighbors' wireless got password-protected, i could connect
[04:56] <pike__> macogw: wep?
[04:57] <macogw> peepsalot: what driver do you use?
[04:57] <pike__> macogw: nm wasnt following conversation
[04:57] <rich1> macogw:  cool.  wish me luck with the new hd.  thxxxx for the help.
[04:57] <onexused> pike_: Wireless Equivilency Privileges I think
[04:57] <onexused> pike_: if that's what you wanted to know
[04:57] <macogw> pike__: the neighbor's encryption? yeah it's wep.  i'm the one that set it.  then i realized that was dumb because now i cant use it with my laptop.  the id10ts still havent figured out it's unusable in the current state
[04:57] <rich1> pike__: i thought it was policy.
[04:58] <Hazarath> Need DVD help, please.
[04:58] <arooni> hey folks i'm having loads of trouble with either twin view or ... xinerama.  i have 7.04, geforce fx 5200, and i can get video out on both my 1280x1024 capable lcds... but i can only get 800x600 max on the second lcd..... (both with twinview and xinerama).... suggestions?
[04:58] <macogw> i thought it was Wired
[04:58] <onexused> pike_: or maybe Wired Equivilent Privacy or something
[04:58] <peepsalot> macogw, just whatever the latest nvidia driver is
[04:58] <Stormx2> !install > wadachicken
[04:58] <sethglickman> hey, can someone help me get my graphics card set up?
[04:58] <macogw> onexused: yeah what you said
[04:58] <rich1> macogw:i thought it was WEIRD.
[04:58] <sethglickman> it's an intel integrated one
[04:58] <macogw> peepsalot: is it nvidia-glx or nvidia-glx-new or nvidia-glx-legacy?
[04:58] <sethglickman> i just bought a vista pc from dell
[04:58] <pete_> Hazarath, do other DVDs work on your computer?
[04:59] <macogw> peepsalot: or is it something else?
[04:59] <sethglickman> and i'm having trouble with the graphics card
[04:59] <Hazarath> pete_, Yes, this is a data DVD, however, Harry Potter 3, I just bought today, works fine.
[04:59] <onexused> rich1: W.E.I.R.D. == WE Is Really Dumb? :P
[04:59] <Hazarath> pete_, the data DVD works fine on my desktop, running Feisty.
[04:59] <pete_> Hazarath, then obviously the problem is with the DVD you burnt
[04:59] <peepsalot> macogw, well, previously i was using the install file from the nvidia site, and just now i was trying to use nvidia-glx.  it looks like i also have nvidia-common installed
[04:59] <sethglickman> can someone help me?
[04:59] <sethglickman> with the graphics card?
[04:59] <macogw> peepsalot: what card is it?
[05:00] <Hazarath> pete_, It works on my desktop...
[05:00] <pete_> Hazarath, sorry, the data DVD works on feisty? then what is the problem?
[05:00] <macogw> sethglickman: naming the card would help
[05:00] <sethglickman> umm, intel graphics media accelerator x3000
[05:00] <sethglickman> i believe
[05:00] <raddy> Hello Everybody
[05:00] <peepsalot> macogw, not sure exactly, it's a laptop, couple years old.
[05:00] <Hazarath> pete_, this lappy, that runs the same, won't read it.
[05:00] <raddy> One small doubt
[05:00] <macogw> sethglickman:  should work perfectly
[05:00] <sethglickman> how do i get it to?
[05:00] <macogw> peepsalot: do "lspci" and see what it is
[05:00] <pete_> Hazarath, does the Laptop play the harry potter DVD?
[05:00] <sethglickman> i'm really a complete newbie
[05:00] <scary> what package contains the alsa drivers?
[05:00] <macogw> sethglickman: you shouldnt need to do anything
[05:00] <sethglickman> ideally, i'd have beryl running
[05:00] <sethglickman> but
[05:01] <sethglickman> i can't seem to get it to work
[05:01] <Hazarath> pete_, perfectly, yes. No lag, notta.
[05:01] <sethglickman> well, it's showing up
[05:01] <sethglickman> i have a 22-inch widescreen monitor
[05:01] <sethglickman> but the resolution is wrong, and i can't get it any higher
[05:01] <raddy> when i install some packages via web browser, i get a message saying the same package is available in software channel
[05:01] <sethglickman> and desktop effects won't work, let alone beryl
[05:01] <pete_> Hazarath, so the Harry Potter DVD works on both, but the Data only works on the desktop, but not the laptop?
[05:01] <peepsalot> macogw, NVIDIA Quadro FX Go700 rev a1
[05:01] <stinger_au> yo
[05:01] <macogw> sethglickman: intel graphics should work immediately and nearly perfectly (with the exception of not allowing a res > 1024x768 until you install 915resolution)
[05:01] <Hazarath> pete_, yes.
[05:01] <raddy> but when i search for that package in Add/Remove, i can't find that
[05:02] <raddy> what is the reason?
[05:02] <macogw> sethglickman: ah ok if you mean res, then install 915resolution
[05:02] <sethglickman> macogw: does that working perfectly include beryl/compiz/desktop effects, and how do i install it
[05:02] <pete_> Hazarath, what happens when you put the data disc in the laptop?
[05:02] <macogw> sethglickman: yes, its why i only  use intel graphics
[05:02] <macogw> sethglickman: "sudo apt-get install 915resolution"
[05:02] <stinger_au> I just updated to 2.6.20-16-generic and now for some reason kaffeine no longer show any DVB options: all my DVB drivers and modules are loaded and kaffeine -verbose gives no error about the card - Just seems like the DVB option all together is gone ? any ideas why
[05:02] <sethglickman> ok, i just ran that
[05:02] <vulcansz> Hey everyone. )
[05:02] <peepsalot> macogw, i never use the "legacy" drivers, just the regular ones from nvidia always worked fine.  it's just annoying to reinstall after every update
[05:03] <macogw> peepsalot: legacy wont work.  your card's newer.
[05:03] <macogw> peepsalot: nvidia-glx-new *should* work
[05:03] <Hazarath> pete_, spools up, seems to read it, then sooner or later spools down. I double click the icon, it says 'Cannot mount the volume: There is probably no media in the drive'.
[05:03] <sethglickman> when i go to Enable Desktop Effects, it says "Desktop effects could not be enabled"
[05:03] <sethglickman> but now the resolution's right
[05:03] <arooni> can someone help me getting dual desktop workin?  ive tried for 5 hours
[05:03] <macogw> sethglickman: ok lemme look up what youre supposed to do after installing 915resolution to get it to go..oh it did it automagically?
[05:03] <sethglickman> yeah
[05:04] <sethglickman> thank you very much
[05:04] <sethglickman> is there an easy way to install beryl/compiz?
[05:04] <macogw> sethglickman: on one of my comps it was automagic and on another it took hand config
[05:04] <sethglickman> hmmm
[05:04] <sethglickman> i see
[05:04] <adante> howdy
[05:04] <macogw> sethglickman: for beryl just "sudo aptitude install beryl emerald-themes"
[05:04] <logreeval> i am having some trouble installing VMwareplay
[05:04] <logreeval> er
[05:04] <adante> what would be the most straightforward way of getting emacs installed?
[05:04] <macogw> sethglickman: no the config i meant was for 915resolution
[05:04] <macogw> sethglickman: my typing was getting behind :p
[05:05] <adante> as it doesn't appear to be in add/remove or the synaptic thing
[05:05] <sethglickman> oh
[05:05] <osxdude|palmTX> There is compiz  on my comp. How do I access it?
[05:05] <sethglickman> well, the desktop effects should work
[05:05] <sethglickman> right?
[05:05] <VulcanSZ> Would anyone mind helping me with a problem with my Beryl settings?
[05:05] <macogw> sethglickman: yes
[05:05] <sethglickman> i mean, without setting anything else up
[05:05] <sethglickman> they don't
[05:05] <sethglickman> and i have no idea why
[05:05] <macogw> osxdude|palmTX: system > pref > desktop effects
[05:05] <adante> and for that matter how can i install gvim? when i click on it in add/remove it says "GVIM Text editor cannot be installed on your computer type (i386) which is.. a shame?!
[05:05] <pete_> Hazarath, has the laptop read any other burnt data dvds?
[05:05] <Wikkedfin^> When i enable desktop effects the minimize/ buttons are gone
[05:05] <Hazarath> pete_, Ya, had to back up my system data a few times.
[05:06] <macogw> sethglickman: open a terminal and type: glxinfo | grep direct
[05:06] <osxdude|palmTX> macogw, rly?
[05:06] <sethglickman> a lot of lines that say "Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[05:06] <macogw> osxdude|palmTX: yes but for actually configuring it to do nice things instead of being boring, you should install gnome-compiz-manager
[05:06] <sethglickman> and then Error: couldn't find RGP GLX visual
[05:06] <sethglickman> and then more lines from above
[05:06] <peepsalot> its amazing they still haven't changed the system bell to default to a sound card yet.  pc speaker is @#$%$%^& annoying
[05:06] <macogw> sethglickman: did you include the | grep direct ?
[05:06] <sethglickman> yes
[05:07] <macogw> sethglickman: and multiple lines came out?  weird.  it should just tell you if direct rendering is enabled
[05:07] <sethglickman> yeah, multiple lines came out
[05:07] <macogw> sethglickman: can you do "sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[05:07] <sethglickman> sure
[05:07] <macogw> sethglickman: leave off the quotes
[05:07] <sethglickman> ok, it's open
[05:08] <sethglickman> should i edit something in Module?
[05:08] <sethglickman> or copy/paste what i have?
[05:08] <sethglickman> i'm actually on a different computer right now
[05:08] <sethglickman> but i can re-type it
[05:08] <Hazarath> pete_, any clue at all?
[05:08] <peepsalot> macogw, nvidia-glx-new does not seem to work either
[05:09] <pete_> Hazarath, it sounds tough. But what device is it called?
[05:09] <adante> hi, what is the standard way for installing packages in ubuntu? the faq is telling me synaptic is the advanced method, but i can't seem to find emacs in it?
[05:09] <ponch_> ? on proftp command <limit>if someone can help out?
[05:09] <adante> or, how would one go about installing emacs
[05:09] <macogw> sethglickman: does it say "dri" anywhere?
[05:09] <sethglickman> yes
[05:09] <sethglickman> Load "dri"
[05:09] <bayu_kr> ok it's done...  gmake = make
[05:09] <sethglickman> bitmap, ddc, dri, extmod, freetype, glx, int10, and vbe
[05:09] <sethglickman> all under Section "Module"
[05:09] <macogw> sethglickman: ok that all looks right
[05:09] <osxdude|palmTX> !flood
[05:09] <Nutubuntu> adante,  I believe emacs is part of the Ubuntu suite of apps by default
[05:09] <ubotu> 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 (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:10] <Hazarath> pete_, 'CDRW/DVD SBW 241'
[05:10] <mister_roboto> hey, what happened to freenode with the klines for the past few days?
[05:10] <macogw> sethglickman: can you pastebin your xorg.conf?
[05:10] <Nutubuntu> adante,  if not, sudo apt-get install emacs ought to get you the basic app
[05:10] <sethglickman> the whole thing?
[05:10] <windio00> are there any channels for building a home linux file server?
[05:10] <chrisjs169> I can't seem to play DVDs on Kubuntu - I get the following (Includes error from kaffeine, as well as from /var/log/messages): http://pastebin.ca/600473
[05:10] <sethglickman> what do i type?
[05:10] <chrisjs169> libdvdcss2 is installed
[05:10] <macogw> sethglickman: and pastebin the output from glxinfo
[05:10] <mister_roboto> does anyone know? i couldn't find news online
[05:11] <pete_> Hazarath, I meant like /dev/cdrom
[05:11] <macogw> sethglickman: go to  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[05:11] <Yahooadam> how do you find sambas status (eg /etc/init.d/samba status - except that doesnt work)
[05:11] <Stwange> all I partitioned for ubuntu was one linux ext2 (or 3?) partition for the root, and one swap - but all the reviews of distros I'm reading show like 6 partitions, should I have had more?
[05:11] <osxdude|palmTX> chrisjs169: go to #kubuntu
[05:11] <adante> Nutubuntu: hmm ok, how do i run it?
[05:11] <Hazarath> pete_, /dev/scd0
[05:11] <macogw> Stwange: no that's fine.  when there's more its usually for servers
[05:11] <pete_> Hazarath, what happens if you type "mount /dev/scd0" at a terminal?
[05:11] <Nutubuntu> Stwange,  I'd recommend a separate partition for /home
[05:11] <windio00> i was wondering if i needed to get at least one PATA hard drive if SATA-300 wasnt well supported yet
[05:12] <iphv37> how do i install the newest codecs for feisty fawn?
[05:12] <Nutubuntu> adante, that *was* how you run it ;P
[05:12] <stinger_au> So any one able to help me with kaffeine no showing DVB options after updating to newer kernel ?
[05:12] <Stwange> Nutubuntu: to restrict user space?
[05:12] <adante> Nutubuntu: sorry, *what* was how i run it? :s
[05:12] <mister_roboto> Stwange: a separate partition for home is nice if you have to reinstall so you don't lose all your personal settings and whatever else you stick in /home
[05:12] <Nutubuntu> Stwange,  no, so that if/when you reinstall, you don't wipe out the data in /home
[05:12] <macogw> Stwange: because /var can grow with error logs so to avoid root filling up, that's put separate on servers.  /home is separate so that if you reinstall your stuff's still there.  /usr can be separate on servers sometimes too to save the installed programs (ditto on /opt)
[05:12] <Stwange> ah ok that makes sense
[05:13] <Hazarath> pete_, hazarath@hazarath-laptop:~$ sudo mount /dev/scd0

[05:13] <quio> Hello
[05:13] <adante> Nutubuntu: ok, so apt-cache search emacs gives me one package: dictionaries-common
[05:13] <gneale> #!#!#############################!#!##!#!#!#!##!##!#!#!#!#!#!#!#!#!#!#!#!#
[05:13] <iphv37> how do i install the newest codecs for feisty fawn?
[05:13] <macogw> iphv37: add medibuntu repos
[05:13] <macogw> iphv37: then if you try to play an mp3 itll prompt  you

[05:13] <sethglickma1> macogw: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28284/ is both of them
[05:13] <adante> Nutubuntu: i'm not very familiar with ubuntu or apt, is there something else i should be doing to get emacs?
[05:13] <sethglickma1> the grep direct is first
[05:13] <macogw> sethglickma1: ok ill have a look
[05:13] <adante> Nutubuntu: or is there a guide to installing emacs perhaps \o/
[05:13] <Hazarath> osxdude|palmTX, it wassn't 20 lines.
[05:13] <sethglickma1> thank you
[05:13] <Stwange> doesn't having all these extra partitions slow data transfer down though? or is that just a windows thing
 I use VLC and have yet to need to install any codecs.
[05:14] <peepsalot> what is the nvidia-common package for?
[05:14] <Nutubuntu> adante,  'sudo apt-get install emacs' in a terminal will get you emacs. If you're more comfortable in a graphical interface, start Synaptics. It will ask you for your password. Once it's open, search for emacs.
[05:14] <peepsalot> nvidia-kernel-common i mean
[05:14] <osxdude|palmTX> Hazarath: Itwas more than one line.
[05:14] <scary> Does anyone have any idea why my alsa module in /lib/modules/ is removed when I boot?
[05:14] <Newbean> any sugguestions on a good interface for rars for unbuntu
[05:14] <adante> Nutubuntu: searching for emacs in synaptics gives me the same result (one package: dictionaries-common)
[05:15] <adante> Nutubuntu: apt-get install emacs gives me E: Couldn't find package emacs"
[05:15] <quio> Does anyone know any interior design programs for Ubuntu?
[05:15] <iphv37> macogw: yeah.. i'd already done it! put i can't see in fullscreen mode!!
[05:15] <macogw> iphv37: doesnt sound like a codec thing
[05:15] <iphv37> quio, was that a question?
[05:15] <iphv37> yeah, i know..
[05:15] <osxdude|palmTX> it was
[05:15] <Hazarath> pete_, got that?
[05:16] <scary> does anyone know how modules can be removed upon boot?
[05:16] <pete_> Hazarath, yeah, I'm just thinking about it
[05:16] <Nutubuntu> adante, I think you may need to add and/or update your repository source lists. A search for 'emacs' in Synaptic (for me) just returned 339 packages, so there's a slight discrepancy ;)
[05:16] <macogw> sethglickma1: can you do for a full glxinfo instead of just the grep direct bit?
[05:16] <Hazarath> pete_, okes, thanks for your time.
[05:16] <sethglickma1> umm sure
[05:16] <iphv37> macogw: but anyway i thought in try to install the newest codecs from a better source.. or whatever!
[05:16] <sethglickma1> what should i type?
[05:16] <quio> Yes.  I am trying to design a house and wondered if there was anything like Architect for Linux.
[05:17] <Stwange> if you have a separate partition for /home/, can you use this on a dual boot to run different distros with the same user groups and files, or would there be conflicts?
[05:17] <Hazarath> quio, try package manager?
[05:17] <quio> I don't need to build the foundation just pick colors.
[05:17] <sethglickma1> macogw: never mind, it's here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28285/

[05:19] <ponch_> ? on proftp command <limit>if someone can help out?
 I found only interface design programs.
[05:19] <ponch_> what is this command RNRF
[05:19] <pete_> Hazarath, if I understand the situation correctly, you have burnt DVDs with the desktop feisty before, and you have read DVDs with the laptop feisty before. Have you tried before now to read with laptop feisty a dvd burnt with desktop feisty?
[05:20] <Hazarath> pete_, No.
[05:20] <scary> mister_roboto: I dont think the card is in the blacklist
[05:20] <pete_> Hazarath, ah, so it is the combination which produces the poisonous reult?
[05:21] <peepsalot> help my X is broken!
[05:21] <Hazarath> pete_, only Windows Achol 120% from M$... and, seems so.
[05:21] <mister_roboto> scary: no, i mean PUT IT THERE if you don't want it to load. wasn't that what you asked?
[05:21] <osxdude|palmTX> peeps hwat is wrong?
[05:21] <peepsalot> nvidia kernel module is borked

[05:23] <sethglickman> i'm trying it now
[05:23] <osxdude|palmTX> peepsalot: no. I can't spell the word.
[05:23] <CVD> its there away to make gnome always remember the alias i created after exit the terminal?
[05:23] <shawn34> kurtti, can I use the sound recorder?
[05:23] <peepsalot> osxdude|palmTX, is that the OSS driver?  searching the repos doesn't show it
[05:23] <pete_> Hazarath, To be honest, I myself have stopped burning DVDs in linux... the last time I tried, it fried my DVD drive (luckily under warranty). So I hate to say it, but my gut tells me to try the burning in windows

[05:27] <luis> not in a cube form mind you, it was just the various windows on the screen
[05:27] <macogw> CVD: do that then.  on the mac at work and on the server i put it in ~/.bashrc, but ubuntu's bashrc says a bunch of stuff that i never actually read.  i think it just puts in the most common aliases or something
[05:27] <Lunar_Lamp> luis, hmm, it sounds very much like it - lol - have you tried pushing your mouse into the corners of teh screen anyway?

[05:29] <pete_> Hazarath, ok. Using the burning programs Brasero or Gnomebaker or K3b might yield slightly different results, too
[05:30] <Lunar_Lamp> mytoaster, wow, ok, well, seeing as you're probably unfamiliar with CLI text editing, it's probably the easiest - is it posible for you to install it? "sudo aptitude install nano"?
[05:30] <Nutubuntu> y/w mytoaster - just call me mister speedy (I don't know much so it's easy to retrieve it)
[05:30] <macogw> Hizzeh: i dont think you can use wine on 64bit. flash only if you install a separate browser as 32bit and install it on there.   w32codecs (like wma wmv) are 32bit only too i think.
[05:30] <Hazarath> pete_, I'm exuasted, and wanting to watch SG1, I don't wanna burn all my limited supplies of DVD-Rs. lol
[05:30] <pete_> Hazarath, they are all in the repositories
[05:30] <ceil420> nano is standard (with Xubuntu, at least) :o
[05:30] <pete_> Hazarath, lol fair enough
[05:31] <macogw> ceil420: yeah. i thought it was auto-installed on all *buntus
[05:31] <Jester45> macogw, there is w64codecs now
[05:31] <Hazarath> pete_, I know where they are, that's where I burned my... ISO of... a certan company's software. *whistles*
[05:31] <ceil420> lol Hazarath
[05:31] <mytoaster> well nothing of the system has installed at all i was loading the 64 bit ubuntu and i got a long ass list of errors.. and after the erros finished im basicly at a command prompt typ thing
[05:31] <macogw> jester45: good to know
[05:31] <Hizzeh> Should I just uninstall ubuntu 64 and install ubuntu 32?
[05:31] <mytoaster> that says initramf(s)
[05:31] <pete_> Hazarath, of course you are referring to the iso for the development version of ubuntu gutsy gibbon
[05:31] <Hazarath> Anywho, lemme go, that gate's callin' me.
[05:32] <Hazarath> pete_, not likely. >.>
[05:32] <ceil420> does anybody know where the default cursor set is, so i can at least look in that folder? /usr/share/icons/default doesn't seem to be it :x
[05:32] <macogw> mytoaster: oh.  initramfs...is that the busybox and dash thing?
[05:32] <luis> is it true that I can F up my PC if something goes wrong with beryl?
[05:32] <macogw> mytoaster: youre in a rather unusable state
[05:32] <mytoaster> ya i figured
[05:32] <Bored1ed> Is Beryl worth installing? I havent used it yet?
[05:32] <macogw> luis: you can just uninstall beryl

[05:32] <luis> ok

[05:32] <luis> danke
[05:32] <osxdude|palmTX> luis: no
[05:32] <macogw> luis: worst thatll happen is youll be stuck at black screen + white text for a bit
[05:32] <pete_> macogw: try pluggin it in and putting bread inside
[05:32] <cwill2> the one in the repository is for an old kernel, not the same as the latest binary package
[05:32] <Nutubuntu> oh! mytoaster, that's a different story - that's the busybox, yes, macogw - mytoaster I'd reinstall from the get-go; it's not that long a process (well, after four or five runs at it, maybe it was, come to think of it)
[05:33] <mytoaster> thats the thing i cant install anything
[05:33] <macogw> luis: if you get into that state, itll be important to have irssi installed so that you can get here and get help
[05:33] <sethglickman> macogw: i just finished running all of the code on that page
[05:33] <mytoaster> it goes straight to the error messages
[05:33] <macogw> luis: irssi is a terminal irc client
[05:33] <sethglickman> didn't work
[05:33] <sethglickman> and now my resolution's broken again
[05:33] <macogw> sethglickman: bleh ok...
[05:33] <sethglickman> well, "broken"
[05:33] <mrunagi> is anyone here  running an osx like dock?
[05:34] <macogw> sethglickman: youll have to re-run 915resolution since you just reinstalled the intel drivers
[05:34] <Nutubuntu> mytoaster, when nothing worked at all for me I checked the CD, the CD drive, the IDE cable ...  For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[05:35] <envi0us> i have symbol wireless card, how can I check for wireless drivers?
[05:35] <scary> anyone know what the error  snd_hda_intel: Unknown symbol means?
[05:35] <cwill2> anybody know where I can get the source package to a later version of the vmware-player-kernel-source?
[05:35] <sethglickman> macogw: i installed both xserver-xorg-video-intel and 915resolution
[05:35] <Nutubuntu> macogw,  what was the url for the no-cd net based install you mentioned earlier ?  mytoaster - that would be a possible workaround
[05:35] <macogw> sethglickman: 915resolution is a patch for intel drivers to get high-res
[05:36] <sethglickman> ok, it said that i already had the latest 915resolution
[05:36] <macogw> Nutubuntu: that wasnt no-cd
[05:36] <macogw> sethglickman: yeah its installed but its not setup now
[05:36] <Nutubuntu> oh, oops
[05:36] <osxdude|palmTX> im gonna try to run windoze in VMWare...
[05:36] <sethglickman> how do i set it up?
[05:36] <chalcedony> hi
[05:36] <feliciano> Hi... I'm thinking to try a new file system for my home ubuntu... I read XFS is a good alternative... can you give me a advice??
[05:36] <macogw> sethglickman: you have to run it to get the resolution.  it's terminal-based (i'm considering an attempt at making a gui if i can figure out HOW)
[05:36] <sethglickman> macogw: the resolution is fixed
[05:36] <jerbull88> how do you change the destination foler for downloads?
[05:36] <chalcedony> how do i do a trace ? i want to know the hops to an ip?
[05:36] <sethglickman> i hit ctrl+alt+backspace, and log in again
[05:37] <macogw> sethglickman: oh well that works
[05:37] <chalcedony> i tried tracert traceroute and trace .. all no
[05:37] <sethglickman> macogw: well, right now beryl isn't working at all
[05:37] <macogw> sethglickman: there are more resolutions than what its giving you available most likely
[05:37] <sethglickman> and neither are desktop effects
[05:37] <Durf> Newbie question where do I get a copy... its not in the FAQ
[05:37] <macogw> sethglickman: right because glx isnt working
[05:37] <sethglickman> i'm on the highest one the monitor will support, i think
[05:37] <peepsalot> osxdude|palmTX, do you know if the driver installed with this method will break every time the kernel is updated?
[05:37] <macogw> sethglickman: we have to get glx going
[05:37] <osxdude|palmTX> chalcedony: unse system > admin > net toolz
[05:37] <Nutubuntu> Durf,  a copy of ?
[05:37] <sethglickman> macogw: any ideas?
[05:37] <osxdude|palmTX> gtg
[05:37] <envi0us> i have symbol wireless card, how can I check for wireless drivers?
[05:37] <adante> hi
[05:38] <Durf> ubuntu linux
[05:38] <jerbull88> how do you change the destination folder for downloads?
[05:38] <Nutubuntu> Durf,  http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[05:38] <adante> in the terminal after you press alt-f to bring up the file menu, is there an alt-stroke to make the menu go away? or is there a way to make it so if you rpses alt hte menu goes away?\
[05:38] <macogw> sethglickman: try "sudo apt-get remove --purge xserver-xorg-video-i810" then "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-i810"
[05:38] <feliciano> Hi... I'm thinking to try a new file system for my home ubuntu... I read XFS is a good alternative... can you give me a advice??
[05:38] <sethglickman> macogw: i don't think i have the i810
[05:38] <macogw> sethglickman: what you did before was xorg-driver-i810, this one's video not driver...try that
[05:38] <sethglickman> i think i have the -intel one
[05:38] <chalcedony> osxdude|palmTX what? how? i am at a bash prompt
[05:38] <sethglickman> yeah
[05:38] <sethglickman> that too
[05:39] <macogw> sethglickman: its a generic driver
[05:39] <sethglickman> macogw: -driver- didn't work, only video did
[05:39] <envi0us> i have symbol wireless card, how can I check for wireless drivers?
[05:39] <macogw> sethglickman: i810 is the driver for 8xx and 9xx
[05:39] <macogw> sethglickman: oh ok
[05:39] <jscinoz__> Hey guys, im trying to get my SMB shares to mount every boot via /etc/fstab, yet no matter what i do only root has write access, what should i do? my /etc/fstab can be read here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28278/
[05:39] <din> hi
[05:40] <sethglickman> macogw: i just did the purge of xserver-xorg-video-intel, and installed -i810
[05:40] <xenex> Does anyone know why VLC player has scanlines?
[05:40] <mrunagi> !kiba-dock
[05:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kiba-dock - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:40] <mrunagi> !kiba
[05:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kiba - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:40] <mrunagi> =(
[05:40] <macogw> sethglickman: reboot and see what happens
[05:40] <ceil420> !xcursorgen
[05:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xcursorgen - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:40] <sethglickman> Failed to start the X server.
[05:40] <sethglickman> Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?
[05:41] <Durf> 700MB? Will this boot or emulate?
[05:41] <macogw> sethglickman: just go back to the other driver then
[05:41] <Xyc0> Is there a tutorial to get mesa3d drivers to perform direct rendering?
[05:41] <macogw> sethglickman: no wait
[05:41] <macogw> sethglickman: do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[05:41] <sethglickman> ok
[05:41] <macogw> sethglickman: changing drivers requires having it update your xorg.conf which is what that little program does
[05:42] <jscinoz> Hey guys, im trying to get my SMB shares to mount every boot via /etc/fstab, yet no matter what i do only root has write access, what should i do? my /etc/fstab can be read here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28278/
[05:42] <Gigs> jscinoz: uid=
[05:42] <Gigs> I need the IFB module but it appears ubuntu doesn't compile that.  Is there an easier way than doing all the git stuff and recompiling it completely?
[05:42] <macogw> mrunagi: kiba's really unstable...not even alpha yet, just warning ya
[05:42] <jscinoz> gigs, i need multiple user rw not just one so i need to use GID instead but it wont work for some reason
[05:42] <aarcane> Hi, I'm looking to buy a wifi card for my wife's Ubuntu laptop, and want to know what the best Wifi card I could buy at a local store for under $40 is that works with Linux
[05:42] <Gigs> jscinoz: try numeric
[05:43] <arbeck23> i'm having trouble mounting a drive via fstab
[05:43] <sethglickman> macogw: attempt to autodetect video hardware?
[05:43] <aarcane> more specifically, that has native Linux drivers/
[05:43] <jscinoz> alright i'll get back to you if it works
[05:43] <macogw> sethglickman: yeah sure
[05:43] <arbeck23> it doesn't mount on boot, but if i unmount and then mount -a it works fine
[05:43] <sethglickman> and i want the i810 driver?
[05:43] <macogw> aarcane: you want intel 3945
[05:43] <macogw> sethglickman: yeah
[05:43] <sethglickman> even though it's the X3000
[05:43] <sethglickman> intel graphics media accelerator
[05:43] <sethglickman> same deal?
[05:43] <aarcane> macogw, okay, so what's a good PCMCIA card that uses intel 3945 ?
[05:43] <cafuego> none
[05:44] <macogw> aarcane: o pcmcia? you dont have a mini-pci inside the laptop?
[05:44] <macogw> sethglickman: itd not x3000
[05:44] <cafuego> cardbus if anything, and even that is pretty unlikely.
[05:44] <scary>  I am just wondering if anyone knows why I would get " snd_hda_intel: Unknown symbol" when I install alsa drivers
[05:44] <Nutubuntu> aarcane,  you might check www.linux-wlan.org for list of compatible hardware
[05:44] <aarcane> macogw, nope.  it's a thinkpad t20 with the only internal mini-pci card slot used for wired
[05:44] <sethglickman> macogw: which modules should be loaded by default?
[05:44] <macogw> aarcane: is there some other wireless built in right now?
[05:44] <sethglickman> should i have dbe, record, or v41?
[05:45] <macogw> sethglickman: dbe and v4l, yes
[05:45] <macogw> sethglickman: idk about record. i dont have it...
[05:45] <Sonicadvance1> It seems that whatever I do, I ALWAYS get Grub errors 15,17, or 22
[05:45] <macogw> aarcane: ok thats a problem.  i can tell you what usb to get
[05:45] <macogw> aarcane: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833156152 would work from usb
[05:45] <aarcane> macogw, only 1 USB port >,.,<
[05:45] <jscinoz> Gigs, changed to numeric, remounted both shares still read only to all but root heres my fstab now http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28287/
[05:46] <Ramon> hello ... I need some help..  I happen to be using an i810 chipset at the moment. It was a cheap all in one chipset that worked well and solved a lot of problems. Yeah, the video sucked, but the Soundmax was awesome.
[05:47] <puller> how can i completley remove a progra via terminal?
[05:47] <rich115> hi, i would like to know how to remove ubuntu off of my secondary hard drive without messing up the master drive
[05:47] <Truman> Hey, has anyone had any luck installing Feisty on a macbook without parallels?
[05:47] <Ramon> puller  apt-get remove --purge "name of the program"
[05:47] <sethglickman> macogw: the desktop showed up this time, but the resolution is bad again
[05:47] <jerbull88> is it possible to use vnc to remote from a windows pc?
[05:47] <puller> Ramon, ok thanks will try
[05:47] <Ramon> can some one please help me?
[05:47] <sethglickman> even though i specified "1600x1050" as one of the resolutions
[05:47] <rich115> how do  remove ubuntu?
[05:47] <Scunizi> !ask | Ramon
[05:47] <ubotu> Ramon: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:48] <Ramon> Scunizi : I did
[05:48] <macogw> aarcane: http://linux-wless.passys.nl/query_hostif.php?hostif=PCMCIA anything here that says hostap and has green should work
[05:48] <jerbull88> what was it?
[05:48] <Scunizi> Ramon, sorry just saw your last post
[05:48] <Ramon> I installed ubuntu... and it is giving me the following error after the installation: http://rafb.net/p/3s67Xd81.html
[05:48] <macogw> sethglickman: run "sudo 915resolution -l"
[05:48] <rich115> how do i remove ubuntu?
[05:48] <Ramon> Scunizi... dont worry.. just need assistance
[05:48] <metbsd> rich115, first you remove boot loader
[05:48] <doctorow> I'm trying to set up an encrypted partition under Feisty with cryptsetup, but I get a "incompatible libdevmapper" message -- any ideas?
[05:48] <rich115> how?
[05:48] <Ramon> rich :   do another partition on the disk and formatt it
[05:48] <metbsd> then you remove partition
[05:48] <arbeck23> this is killing me
[05:48] <macogw> rich115: put something where it was installed
[05:49] <sethglickman> macogw: a lot of modes
[05:49] <macogw> rich115: if you just install whatever os youre replacing it with, itll do it
[05:49] <rich115> when i do that, it ruis the grub andi  cant load windows naymore
[05:49] <puller> can anyoen help me with a kiba-dock script?
[05:49] <macogw> sethglickman: pick the one you want
[05:49] <Scunizi> Ramon, is ata1 your dvd drive?
[05:49] <rich115> i was dual booting form 2 diffrent hard drives
[05:49] <Ramon> scunizi: actually there's no cd or dvd on the computer... the HD is IDE
[05:49] <peepsalot> what's the proper place to put new applications?  i just have an archive with the files in it(Intellij Idea)
[05:49] <rich115> if i take off ubuntu, the grub ruins the windows boot record
[05:49] <madscience> I need someone to help me with scripting an event to happen when the screensaver starts and also when it stops
[05:49] <rich115> so how do i without messing up the booter?
[05:50] <sethglickman> macogw: i don't see it. in fact, i don't think i see any widescreen resolutions?
[05:50] <metbsd> rich115, that's right
[05:50] <Ramon> RICH: take the master drive off the computer... GOOGLE IT... and then put the slave in the place of the master and install another OS
[05:50] <Ramon> it will do it
[05:50] <Bored1ed> you just redo the boot record
[05:50] <macogw> sethglickman: then do "sudo gedit /etc/default/915resolution"
[05:50] <macogw> sethglickman: it doesnt show?
[05:50] <aarcane> macogw, I'm looking at that, and there's only one card on there that supports 802.11G, and it's a yellow card.
[05:50] <Bored1ed> not hard
[05:50] <macogw> sethglickman: if it was being used before it has to show
[05:50] <rich115> i dont understand
[05:50] <metbsd> rich115, you use fdisk command to restore mbr
[05:50] <Ramon> rich.. go to google
[05:50] <Sonicadvance1> seems like that entire article is about dual-booting with Windows
[05:50] <Ramon> it is simple
[05:51] <macogw> aarcane: those are all of the pcmcia wireless cards and how well they work with linux
[05:51] <Ramon> im having a weird issue here :S http://rafb.net/p/3s67Xd81.html
[05:51] <rich115> HOW DO I RESTORE THE mbr FROM THE UBUNTU LIVE cd?
[05:51] <Ramon> rich... GOOGLE
[05:51] <jerbull88> Ramon, were you installing to a blank hd?
[05:51] <macogw> rich115: you want to reinstall grub?
[05:51] <metbsd> you can't, rich115
[05:51] <Ramon> jerbull88: yes, and actually it works on another computer
[05:51] <doctorow> Does anyone know what to do about "incompatible libdevmapper" messages when using cryptsetup to create an encrypted partition?
[05:51] <Bored1ed> Rich, u use the windows disk
[05:51] <Ramon> jerbull: it is just on the one i want to have it
[05:51] <sethglickman> macogw: i don't see it here
[05:51] <metbsd> you have to use a windows boot disk, fdisk /mbr
[05:51] <rich115> and thats it?
[05:51] <Sonicadvance1> Scunizi, is that article entirely about dual-booting with Windows?
[05:51] <InHisName> I got into a crazy mode, what is it?  My mouse does not work any more in this login. No clicks on icons or pull downs start anything.  Click & drag makes a selection that is saved to desktop as abc.png
[05:51] <Ramon> rich: YES
[05:51] <jerbull88> so the one thats not working was a clean slate when u tried to install ubuntu
[05:51] <macogw> sethglickman: if it came up before it has to be listed.  are you sure it was actually showing a widescreen one before not just something higher?
[05:51] <rich115> in command prompt correct?
[05:51] <Scunizi> Ramon, you should check the drive and make sure the jumper is set for master
[05:52] <sethglickman> and i'm trying to edit the file, but i'm not sure what to type where; i set XRESO=1600, YRESO=1050, but MODE=auto is above it
[05:52] <sethglickman> i'm 90% sure
[05:52] <mytoaster> thanks for everyones help i got it to load finally :D special thanks to you nutubuntu
[05:52] <Scunizi> Sonicadvance1, no.. it also works for just reinstalling grub.
[05:52] <macogw> sethglickman: you have to put in resolutions from the list that came up before
[05:52] <Ramon> jerbull: yes it was clean. It worked on another computer.. I transferred to the one where I want to have it and it is not working.. if i take it to this computer it works
[05:52] <jerbull88> Ramon, what year is the bios dated?
[05:52] <rich115> can i use a windows 98 floppy start up disk?
[05:52] <Ramon> jerbull: let me check
[05:52] <rich115> to fix the mbr
[05:52] <sethglickman> yeah, i think it worked when i had the xserver-xorg-video-intel installed
[05:52] <macogw> sethglickman: for ex. mine shows 1280x1024 and 1280x768 so x768 is the widescreen one
[05:52] <Sonicadvance1> I would have thought that Ubuntu could have set up Grub itself, seems not =p
[05:52] <jamman> rich115, i would use the xp disc.
[05:53] <InHisName> Right clicks does a magnify and I can drag to edges and see dimmed sides and top / bottom of cube. Let go and it goes back to desktop.
[05:53] <Nutubuntu> y/w mytoaster  -  help someone out sometime and pass it on : )
[05:53] <macogw> sethglickman: wait no im dumb
[05:53] <bronze> Where must I lay shortcuts so that they are availib lle throguh terminal? (e.g. "emesene" in terminal)
[05:53] <macogw> sethglickman:  i was still in the manpage
[05:53] <Ramon> Jerbull: it is 1998
[05:53] <jamman> bronze, i believe it is /usr/share/bin
[05:53] <macogw> sethglickman: on my normal-proportions its showing all normal ones.  lemme check my ws laptop
[05:53] <rich115> i dont have it, but could i use a windows 98 start up floppy to get into DOS and do it that way?
[05:53] <doctorow> Is there a better channel than this one to ask questions about cryptsetup and libdevmapper errors?
[05:53] <Ramon> rich: absolutly
[05:53] <iphv37> macogw: problem with fullscreen fixed!! only installing gxine..
[05:53] <jamman> bronze, i take that back.
[05:54] <arbeck23> no fstab help?
[05:54] <jamman> bronze, /usr/bin i believe.
[05:54] <rich115> what command do i do once in command prompot?
[05:54] <jerbull88> Ramone, that may be the issue, its a little old for ubuntu, ubuntu has a cutoff at 2000 after that it has to emulate and that could cause issues
[05:54] <jamman> rich115, fixmbr
[05:54] <bronze> jamman, k thanks
[05:54] <rich115> and thats it?
[05:54] <Nutubuntu> doctorow - IDK about cryptsetup but if an encrypted directory would work for you, you could look at encfs
[05:54] <Ramon> jerbull: and there's no solution for that?
[05:54] <jamman> rich115, it should ask you "are you sure?" or something like that and say yes.
[05:54] <craigbass1976> BOO!
[05:55] <rich115> thanx SO MUCH!
[05:55] <craigbass1976> What's going on in here tonight?
[05:55] <jerbull88> Ramon, unfortunately a new BIOS
[05:55] <doctorow> Nutubuntu -- thanks, but I really wanna do the whole partition
[05:55] <macogw> iphv37: ah yeah xine > gstreamer.  dvd and wmv work much better with it too
[05:55] <Sonicadvance1> Wonder if it's Ubuntu 7.04's problem, last time I installed 6.* without problem
[05:55] <Ramon> jerbull: damn it sux hehe
[05:55] <puller> can anyoen help me with kiba?
[05:55] <jamman> Sonicadvance1, if whats a feisty problem?
[05:55] <jerbull88> ramon, u could switch the motherboards in the pcs
[05:55] <macogw> puller: ask on kiba dock message board
[05:55] <Nutubuntu> doctorow,  what error(s) are you getting?
[05:55] <macogw> puller: might work better
[05:56] <puller> macd, no one is there?
[05:56] <Aviatrixie> you can always try Automatix
[05:56] <PurpZeY> !automatix
[05:56] <ubotu> Automatix2 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
[05:56] <macogw> puller: its a message board though..you leave one and check tomorrow
[05:56] <PurpZeY> !worksforme
