[22:07] <biped> so burhan what is your suggestion?
[22:08] <sriramoman> Nutzebahn: best way would be to use kwrite itself, as it has all features like syntax hilighting and more, just that you would have to use commandline to compile/build ur programs. thats where kdevelop will help u out.
[22:08] <Alistair> kewl?
[22:08] <pisse> burhan: http://pastebin.com/m55a63752
[22:08] <Alistair> cool?
[22:08] <burhan> biped: so if you had four users in /home, (ie, /home/fred, /home/joe, /home/ed) you will not have four new users in the new system -- it just won't format the partition. The files will be there, but you won't be able to login as any of those users.
[22:08] <sriramoman> Alistair: u have to use root previledges to access the directory.
[22:08] <jamie25> Hello. I just installed google earth from the synaptic package manager & i cannot find it in my applications. I went back to to synaptic package manager & googleearth-package is checked off. Where could I find this?
[22:08] <Gu1> Hello can anyone here tell me if there are current problems with the official NVIDIA drivers or the recomended Xorg drivers in Ubuntu 8.04.1? My system crashes everytime I try to play a game like Open Arena and such and also during video watching on youtube.
[22:08] <karlaj> Hello, how can i see if my graphic card is installed? secondly, i got a creative fatal1ty soundcard, howe do I install it? Im a firsttime linux user
[22:08] <pisse> burhan: the problem wasn't me forgetting the password.. the problem was I could login with admin using no password (and then me trying to fix that :P)
[22:08] <sriramoman> Alistair: because what u do is a system task
[22:08] <_Zeus_> Gu1: what GPU?
[22:08] <burhan> pisse: how did you install mysql server?
[22:09] <pisse> burhan: synaptic
[22:09] <Gu1> NVIDIA GeForce 6200 AGP
[22:09] <sriramoman> Alistair: so type 'gksu nautilus' in alt+F2
[22:09] <pins> so i have this issue with my Intel4965AG card. I looks like its started but iwlist scan never returns anything.
[22:09] <_Zeus_> Gu1: could you go to System > Administration > Hardware Drivers and see if they're all enabled?
[22:09] <pins> ifconfig -a looks good as well.
[22:09] <sriramoman> Alistair: there type ur passwrd.
[22:09] <burhan> pisse: it should have asked you to set the root password.
[22:09] <sriramoman> Alistair: and go to /etc/X11
[22:09] <pins> but i never get any connections going even though it looks like its fine.
[22:09] <casdf> hmm, what about xmms2? im having trouble running xmms2
[22:09] <casdf> xmm2d*
[22:09] <Daisuke_Laptop> sriramoman: that is extremely bad advice
[22:10] <_Zeus_> trouble=??
[22:10] <burhan> pisse: now run sudo apt-get install mysql-server
[22:10] <casdf> "IPC failed to init"
[22:10] <Alistair> sriramoman:  'gksu nautilus' in alt+F2 AND Term as an alternative??
[22:10] <Gu1> there is only one listed driver and it is the NVIDIA(latest cards) driver and its enabled.
[22:10] <_Zeus_> Gu1: hmmm.....
[22:10] <Daisuke_Laptop> unless you know what you're doing, you shouldn't be running nautilus as root
[22:10] <_Zeus_> Gu1: I assume you rebooted after enabling it?
[22:10] <Gu1> Ive tried the recomended driver there and also the official NVIDIA driver and they both freeze my system it seems.
[22:10] <burhan> Gu1: I don't have such issue, but I don't have a very recent nivida card so it might be that your particular card is not supported well.
[22:10] <Gu1> yes I did.
[22:10] <Fenix|work> how do I install an unstable package using apt-get?
[22:11] <rubinboy> have you disabled the  default ubuntu drivers?
[22:11] <marcelo> jamie: type ls -a /$HOME
[22:11] <pisse> burhan: http://pastebin.com/m94c8aff
[22:11] <burhan> Fenix|work: what's the error?
[22:11] <Fenix|work> burhan, I'm using xmlrpc2
[22:11] <_Zeus_> Fenix|work: what's the issue?
[22:11] <biped> burhan: i see. i will be able to create those users again though? will ubuntu get bitchy when it notices the homedirs already exist?
[22:11] <Gu1> When I do a fresh Ubuntu install with no drivers at all, my system never crashes.
[22:11] <jamie25> marcelo: do i need a sudo in front of that?
[22:11] <burhan> biped: probably :)
[22:11] <Fenix|work> and aparently 8.04's version is borked and the suggested workaround is to install the unstable debian package of libapache2-mod-xmlrpc2
[22:11] <burhan> pisse: sudo killall mysql
[22:12] <Gu1> freezes I mean. Compiz effects freeze my system also.its a shame.
[22:12] <wng-> I made a custom livecd, but what I wanted to do was change the default login shell for the livecd, any ideas?
[22:12] <pisse> burhan: no process killed
[22:12] <_Zeus_> wng-: I think that's a little advanced for here
[22:12] <Fenix|work> _Zeus_, burhan libapache2-mod-xmlrpc2
[22:12] <casdf> any idea what to do when: oss audio output error: cannot open audio device (/dev/dsp)
[22:12] <_Zeus_> pisse: ps -ef|grep mysql
[22:12] <marcelo> no just ls -a $HOME and you will find the directory.
[22:12] <_Zeus_> Fenix|work: what happens when you try to install it?
[22:12] <wng-> _Zeus_: why should anything be too advanced for here?
[22:13] <burhan> pisse: you somehow have mysql still running; which means you installed it outside of apt. Try sudo ps aux | grep mysql
[22:13] <jamie25> Thanks
[22:13] <excid3> becky, almost done upgrading :D
[22:13] <_Zeus_> wng-: not sure it anyone here can help you
[22:13] <Fenix|work> it installs fine, but Apache bombs with an undefined symbol: xmlrpc_registry_new
[22:13] <_Zeus_> :-P
[22:13] <burhan> pisse: or you have a stale pid somewhere in your system.
[22:13] <Gu1> Where do I look to see if my video card is suported 100%?
[22:13] <_Zeus_> google?
[22:13] <burhan> wng-: why do you want to change the default shell?

[22:13] <marcelo> jamie25:no just ls -a $HOME and you will find the directory
[22:13] <`atb`> does anyone konow how  file are moved in ubuntu...? I heard that  under Ubuntu, the file’s absolute path is rewritten, causing it to simply appear in a different place in the file structure
[22:14] <asdf25> hi, does anyone know what the package with all the command-line image format conversion tools is called?
[22:14] <Gnea> !sound | karlaj
[22:14] <pisse> burhan: http://pastebin.com/m34ca818a
[22:14] <wng-> burhan: because I don't want it to run a shell at all, I want to set the default shell to a bash script so that my script will run
[22:14] <_Zeus_> pisse: try running sudo kill 5218
[22:14] <Gnea> asdf25: imagemagick
[22:14] <asdf25> thanks
[22:14] <pisse> _Zeus_: no error, so I'll go for install mysql-server?
[22:14] <burhan> pisse: sudo kill -9 5176 5218 && sudo apt-get install mysql-server
[22:14] <guntbert> biped: copy /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow to a safe place and after the new installation you can add the lines with the important users to the new /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow
[22:14] <_Zeus_> pisse: you could try it
[22:15] <_Zeus_> burhan: he already killed 5218
[22:15] <el> need help how to install msi.ext.file step by step
[22:15] <burhan> asdf25: you probably are after imagemagick
[22:15] <guntbert> biped: so they will then exist in the new system
[22:15] <biped> guntbert: have you tried that before?
[22:15] <brylie> I cannot mount an SD card in ubuntu 8.04
[22:15] <pisse> burhan: ok, it worked out fine now
[22:15] <blackbinary> I think there is a problem with my sound drivers causing my computer to freeze, any idea what I can do?
[22:15] <_Zeus_> brylie: what happens? nothing?
[22:15] <brylie> yea, nothing
[22:16] <_Zeus_> brylie: try going to a termilan and type "less /etc/mtab"
[22:16] <_Zeus_> and use pasetbin
[22:16] <brylie> I'm not sure if the port went bad or if it's something else
[22:16] <rainwalker> hardy is on 8.04.1, not 8.04.2, right?
[22:16] <_Zeus_> pastebin.ubuntu.com
[22:16] <esh_> i have a gateway 450SX4 running xubuntu and the core temp is hovering around 60C. i know thats extremely hot for desktops but how does it figure with a laptop?
[22:16] <marcelo> How can i make the su command to read a password from a variable, just like it reads the login name( su $VARIABLE) for example
[22:16] <_Zeus_> hardy is on 8.04.1
[22:16] <guntbert> biped: yes, just use gedit or any other convenient editor, you will have to call it with gksudo
[22:16] <rainwalker> thanks _Zeus_
[22:16] <pisse> burhan: http://pastebin.com/m5b43ec5d
[22:16] <burhan> esh_: 60C is cool.
[22:16] <_Zeus_> rainwalker:sure
[22:16] <jamie25> marcelo: interesting google earth is not on this list
[22:16] <esh_> sorry, the cpu is a pentium 4 m
[22:16] <esh_> burhan, for a laptop?
[22:17] <burhan> pisse: did you run sudo apt-get install mysql-server
[22:17] <brylie> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/37531/
[22:17] <pisse> burhan: yeah and it worked out fine
[22:17] <HunterAmacker> I've got a question about Live CDs. I downloaded the official ISO from Ubuntu.com, so if I just burn it normally, it will automatically act as a Live CD, right?
[22:17] <rubinboy> yes
[22:17] <burhan> pisse: now go and follow these steps: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MysqlPasswordReset
[22:17] <marcelo> jamie25: have you looked for its executable in /usr/bin?
[22:17] <rubinboy> it should HunterAmacker
[22:17] <biped> so just the lines from those two files will bring the old users into existence again?
[22:17] <HunterAmacker> ok, thanks
[22:18] <Alistair> sriramoman: tks for help I will get more detail off forum and work carefully through there.
[22:18] <HunterAmacker> I just wanted to make sure before I made a coaster
[22:18] <qr_> what is the latex package for ubuntu??
[22:18] <rubinboy> do checksum on them before HunterAmacker
[22:18] <el> Is there a way to run msi. extension file in linux?
[22:18] <burhan> HunterAmacker: you need to choose the livecd option from the boot up menu; I believe the default action is to launch the installer.
[22:18] <Alistair> gnea: tks for your help will check out those forum urls. Kind regards.
[22:18] <rubinboy> el: wine
[22:18] <rubinboy> wine: you can install wine
[22:18] <guntbert> biped: yes, thats all, in linux nearly everything is in a text-file
[22:18] <awmcclain> How can I install an older version of a package using apt-get?
[22:18] <node357> el, once you have wine installed you can use the msiexec command
[22:18] <sriramoman> Alistair: u are welcome. i would not mind spending time to help u live, though.
[22:18] <blackbinary> !wine | el
[22:18] <histo> awmcclain: check in /var/cache/apt/archives
[22:19] <rubinboy> burhan: did that change in hardy??
[22:19] <node357> wait, you can double click in Ubuntu with wine can't you?
[22:19] <histo> awmcclain: just use dpkg -i to install the specific deb.
[22:19] <pisse> burhan: error on the second instruction http://pastebin.com/m3bcd91d2
[22:19] <burhan> rubinboy: iirc, yes it did.
[22:19] <blackbinary> node357, yep
[22:19] <Oli```> Is it possible to upgrade from 32bit to 64bit?
[22:19] <blackbinary> I think there is a problem with my sound drivers causing my computer to freeze, any idea what I can do?
[22:19] <phantomcircuit> hi
[22:19] <sriramoman> ubottu: are you AI?
[22:19] <node357> blackbinary, okay thaks.. sorry for the misleading comment about msiexec
[22:19] <phantomcircuit> im not getting any sound
[22:19] <burhan> pisse: its /usr/sbin/mysqld
[22:19] <rubinboy> burhan: oops, only installed hardy once (got it right the first time) and so wasn't really paying attention
[22:19] <sriramoman> Oli```: no.
[22:19] <blackbinary> node357, lol np
[22:20] <phantomcircuit> im playing a movie that i know worked before but now there isn't any sound
[22:20] <Oli```> sriramoman: oh =(
[22:20] <burhan> Oli```: not without reinstalling the core system.
[22:20] <awmcclain> histo: Hrm. I can't just do apt-get install <package>=<old-version>?
[22:20] <Alistair> sriramoman: yes but for all the mucking around and even then the driver is suspect its probably more sensible to get a know graphics pci card for $25 agreed?
[22:20] <rubinboy> sriramoman: he not a very powerfull AI version, but yes a basic one
[22:20] <mikeg3> !fsck
[22:20] <biped> great, guntbert, now when ubuntu asks me for the name of the first user account I'd better not use the old admins username, right?

[22:21] <Daisuke_Laptop> sweet bloody lord, what happened to the advice around here?  we don't help people get vid cards working anymore, we tell them to go buy another one now?

[22:21] <burhan> pisse: ls -l /var/lib/mysql
[22:21] <blackbinary> which card isnt working?
[22:21] <KizilAkrep> how can i mount drivers with write permission on the live cd. it mounts automatic readonly
[22:21] <Pirate_Hunter> Daisuke_Laptop: XD
[22:21] <sriramoman> Alistair: if you dont mind to spend, no problem. But since i am a programming student, i am intending to reverse engineer and create better drivers for my card.
[22:21] <zChris> How can i make ubuntu understand changes ive made to my user? For example if i added my user to a group
[22:21] <blackbinary> sriramoman, what card?
[22:21] <pisse> burhan: http://pastebin.com/m7f1acaad
[22:21] <phantomcircuit> zChris, log out
[22:21] <burhan> zChris: logout and login again
[22:21] <Alistair> read the thread - that was my call my friend to buy the card - I am the one with the problem and your chaps have been kind enough to offer me help
[22:21] <phantomcircuit> login
[22:21] <Pirate_Hunter> Daisuke_Laptop: yah its gone a tad downhill since some ppl hanging stopped hanging about here :/
[22:22] <sriramoman> blackbinary: VIA unichrome k8m800
[22:22] <zChris> Without relogging
[22:22] <sriramoman> blackbinary: 2D is quite fine, 3D sucks.
[22:22] <guntbert> biped: thats sensible
[22:22] <blackbinary> sriramoman, wow. thats... well, thats old. lol.
[22:22] <fiveguysonecup> can anyone help me with wifi in ubuntu
[22:22] <Pirate_Hunter> Daisuke_Laptop: now being serious what is the problem your having?
[22:22] <atlef> !wifi | fiveguysonecup:
[22:22] <blackbinary> sriramoman, personally, if it was me, i'd stick it in an old machine to play around with, and get a newer card for actual use :)
[22:23] <dmartinezc> http://paste.ubuntu.com/37532/    i can't make vlc play a dvd, this is the error and the error with vlc -v3
[22:23] <Daisuke_Laptop> Pirate_Hunter: i was being serious, i'm not having any problems, just a bit exasperated
[22:23] <burhan> pisse: sudo chown -R mysql:mysql /var/lib/mysql
[22:23] <fiveguysonecup> ok ill check it out
[22:23] <Bambo> How to view if I got my graphiccard installed?
[22:23] <blackbinary> Bambo, what do you mean? could you be more clear?
[22:23] <biped> ok, i will give it a shot and try to abide by your advice. keep your fingers crossed. thanks a lot anyway
[22:23] <sriramoman> blackbinary: i may earn some pocket money to shed the $100
[22:23] <Alistair> sriramoman: OK if its interesting for you; its interesting for me too, since I work with hardware I'll give it a shot but I should put chat on the Ubuntu machine first instead of running across the room all the time.
[22:23] <dmartinezc> any idea, i already have libdvdcss installed
[22:23] <cisco80211> Hello all, how would I search the entire filesystem for a string in an unknown file? google results not helping 100%
[22:23] <guntbert> biped: one additional thought: where are you going to save those two files?
[22:24] <KizilAkrep> how can i mount drivers with write permission on the live cd. it mounts automatic readonly
[22:24] <burhan> cisco80211: sudo grep -R "string" /
[22:24] <Pirate_Hunter> Daisuke_Laptop: ahh dont let the channel get to you, you'll age faster and most likely suffer from depression or some other kind of mental problem
[22:24] <blackbinary> sriramoman, heck, theres a very nice rig tigerdirect.com is selling (barebone, no graphics card, but integerated works), for $139
[22:24] <pisse> burhan: ok, it's done but still problem: http://pastebin.com/m1509ffcd
[22:24] <phantomcircuit> My audio output doesnt work help?
[22:24] <cisco80211> thanks burhan...trying now
[22:24] <burhan> blackbinary: please take this to #ubuntu-offtopic
[22:24] <rubinboy> burhan: does find only work with  file names
[22:24] <Alistair> Pirate_Hunter: :-)
[22:24] <blackbinary> burhan, its on topic :)
[22:25] <burhan> pisse: you need to be root when you run that command.
[22:26] <Alistair> sriramoman: what do you recommend for a chat client?
[22:26] <jamie25> i checked user/bin, i still cannot find the executable for it googleearth. Synaptic Package manager says i have it installed but it is not in any of my applications
[22:26] <burhan> rubinboy: you can tell it to find only files, or only directories, it will by default search both (a directory is just a file in linux)
[22:26] <pisse> burhan: lol.. sry.. noobish of me..
[22:26] <burhan> pisse: put sudo before that command.
[22:27] <Pirate_Hunter> Alistair: the most basic and best is xchat otherwise you could get irssi if youre up for the challenge
[22:27] <Pirate_Hunter> Alistair: however the best is what you believe is good for you
[22:27] <rubinboy> burhan: you gave him the grep command, i was asking why not the find command
[22:27] <Alistair> sriramoman: sri I meant IRC client?
[22:27] <pisse> burhan: yeah I know :P but what's supposed to happen? after displaying version nothing happens..
[22:27] <sriramoman> Alistair: anything that you've used for the first time.
[22:27] <burhan> rubinboy: because find doesn't search IN files.
[22:27] <juro> I have Ubuntu64 but want to run one (1!) program using the 32bit Java, is this possible to build a starter script for this?
[22:28] <rubinboy> burhan: that was my question thanks
[22:28] <Alistair> Xchat it is then tks I'm using chatzilla here.
[22:28] <burhan> pisse: what is on your screen now?
[22:28] <burhan> pisse: mysql> <-- this?
[22:28] <pisse> burhan: nope
[22:28] <burhan> pisse: if nothing happened, that's good.
[22:29] <blackbinary> does anyone know where the crash logs are stored... i know the directory but I need a specific one, it seems my computer freezes either due to sound problems or graphics problems, and normal logs don't report anything :(
[22:29] <burhan> pisse: open another terminal.
[22:29] <burhan> pisse: and type mysql -u root
[22:29] <pisse> burhan: kk
[22:29] <blackbinary> pisse: I believe thats spelled with a Y at the end, not E. :P
[22:29] <burhan> pisse: you should get mysql> prompt
[22:30] <zChris> Is ther away to see what drives X is currently using ?
[22:30] <burhan> blackbinary: when you restart, does the crash detect applet start?
[22:30] <burhan> zChris: drives? or drivers?
[22:30] <blackbinary> burhan, I am not sure.
[22:30] <zChris> burhan: drivers
[22:30] <histo> Is there a way to fix the system monitors jacked view of my network card? It thinks traffic is going for one second and stoping on the next. http://img247.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotjq1.png
[22:30] <pisse> burhan: yeah now I'm in mysql promt, so I'll continue with the how to
[22:30] <zChris> burhan: for example if i use vesa instead of nvidia etc
[22:30] <burhan> pisse: don't forget your password this time :)
[22:30] <Pirate_Hunter> blackbinary: Check /var/log/syslog and /var/log/messages
[22:30] <marcelo> jamie25: try ls /usr/bin/*earth*
[22:31] <blackbinary> Pirate_Hunter those were the logs I were refering to that did not give anything useful :/
[22:31] <Pirate_Hunter> blackbinary: oh didnt see that bit
[22:31] <burhan> zChris: you can check the log to see what it is using.
[22:31] <burhan> el: whatever language that is you are messaging me with, I don't speak it. Please don't message people without asking first.
[22:32] <zChris> burhan: okey , so there are no like.. lsmod or something for x ?
[22:32] <alistair_> sriramoman: cant see you in the users on xchat?
[22:32] <pisse> burhan: http://pastebin.com/m34fddd2d
[22:32] <blackbinary> Pirate_Hunter, my mistake. /messages doesnt, but didnt try syslog.
[22:33] <burhan> zChris: lsmod is system wide.
[22:33] <blackbinary> Pirate_Hunter, think i've found the culprit: Aug 14 16:53:56 blackbinary-desktop kernel: [ 2109.164863] compiz.real[6416]: segfault at 7fff94f6a088 rip 7fff94f6a088 rsp 7fff9d0f87e0 error 14
[22:33] <biped> sorry, guntbert, i missed that one. i will backup them on a cfcard, as usb-hd doesn't work anymore
[22:33] <pisse> burhan: the how-to says "In Dapper, /usr/bin/mysgld... did not work. However, mysqld --skip-grant-tables did." should I try it the other way?
[22:33] <jamie25> Marcelo: I am getting no such file or directory
[22:33] <Alistair> sriramoman: my new user name is alistair_ on xchat
[22:34] <Pirate_Hunter> blackbinary: might be turn it off and see
[22:34] <jamie25> even ls user/bin does not work
[22:35] <zChris> burhan: i know, just took it as an example :)
[22:35] <burhan> pisse: no, try this: use mysql; update user set Password = PASSWORD('yournewsimplepass') where Host = 'localhost' and User = 'root';
[22:35] <mutilator> does the ubuntu irc client force you to join this channel or something?
[22:35] <marcelo> jamie25: it almost certainly means you have not installed it. Try to download it from the google web site and install from command line, i have already done that.
[22:35] <zerofactor> i'm having problems with my network card in ubuntu
[22:35] <jpds> mutilator: Don't believe so.
[22:35] <blackbinary> Pirate_Hunter, hard to do so, as it freezes rather randomly, sometimes in 10 minutes, other in 35.
[22:35] <blackbinary> mutilator, does it by default, you can stop that somewhere.
[22:35] <jamie25> I will give that a shot.  Thanks
[22:36] <mutilator> k
[22:36] <marcelo> jamie25, you have to put a "/" in front of like /usr/bin.
[22:36] <mutilator> wondered why this chan has so many ppl
[22:36] <mutilator> and its relatively dead
[22:36] <pisse> burhan: hehe.. "No database selected"
[22:36] <Gnea> mutilator: most people just idle and help/ask for help when they feel like it
[22:36] <burhan> pisse: did you type 'use mysql;' first?
[22:37] <Pirate_Hunter> blackbinary: start in safemode or just x and stop it from starting at boot, i do not know the file that needs editing so you might have to ask someone that actually uses composite
[22:37] <pisse> burhan: oh.. nope.. my bad :S
[22:37] <blackbinary> Pirate_Hunter, for now I just switched to metacity, and asked on compiz-fusion channel
[22:37] <dmartinezc> http://pastebin.com/m35e958c6 i have that ploblem with vlc, any idea???
[22:37] <pisse> burhan: no rows matched
[22:38] <TeslaTony> mutilator: Some people idle on here for days, only to come out when someone asks "Why does this channel have so many people on it?"
[22:38] <burhan> pisse: select User from user where Host = 'localhost';
[22:38] <Pirate_Hunter> blackbinary: well that also works XD
[22:39] <Alistair> alistair_: this is a test
[22:39] <Pirate_Hunter> TeslaTony: lol is all i gotta say to that
[22:39] <pisse> burhan: hehe.. like I suspected.. only user is "pisse" :P so I must have deleted the other users
[22:39] <Gnea>  #ubuntu: Total of 1304 nicks [1 ops, 0 halfops, 0 voices, 1303 normal]
[22:40]  * Pirate_Hunter notices that the usual suspects are not here those freaking gurus are hiding again
[22:40] <atlef> still, most seem to idle in the channel
[22:40] <burhan> pisse: good lord :/
[22:40] <jamie25> Marcel: Ok so i downloaded googleearthlinux.bin from the google website, how do I install it from the command line? Im sorry Im a newbie at ubuntu :)
[22:40] <Gnea> Pirate_Hunter: you don't consider me to be a guru?
[22:41] <burhan> pisse: you need to recreate your user tables; or just adjust the permissions for pisse so that its the root user; whatever you want. I suggest you recreate your grant tables.
[22:41] <Gnea> anyway, i digress
[22:41] <butcherboys> can someone help me with a dual boot (windows/ubuntu) issue?
[22:41] <acrousey> i'm having difficulties locating my new hard drive. My primary drive is a 40GB IDE drive that came with the computer. The new drive is a 750GB SATA drive hooked up through a PCI card. I know that it works because when i was booting up the machine right after I installed it, I was getting a message that said that the machine couldn't find the operating system on the hard drive. So I went into the BIOS and made the IDE drive my primary drive. But
[22:41] <Gnea> !dualboot | butcherboys
[22:41] <guntbert> burhan: what about if pisse does purge mysql now, that should work when it is installed, and reinstalls then?
[22:41] <marcelo> Jamie25: Open a terminal and try ./"name of the file"
[22:41] <butcherboys> ty
[22:41] <astra-x> so i need to mount a read only of ufs drive in ubuntu
[22:42] <astra-x> yet i get a bad magic block
[22:42] <awmcclain> Where is the list of actual .deb files installed kept?
[22:42] <marcelo> jamie: but do it with sudo
[22:42] <burhan> guntbert: it should; but I don't think it will since he apparently had mysql installed from another source as well.
[22:42] <marcelo> jamie25: but do it with sudo
[22:43] <guntbert> burhan: sorry, I missed that
[22:43] <burhan> pisse: try sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server && sudo apt-get install mysql-server -- then see if that helps you out.
[22:43] <burhan> pisse: if that doesn't, then you need to recreate your system tables to get a root user.
[22:44] <TeslaTony> jamie25: If you can't get the downloaded file to install, type "sudo apt-get install googleearth" into the command line
[22:44] <burhan> acrousey: install gparted and see if your drive shows up in it.
[22:44] <Pirate_Hunter> Gnea: cause youre a guru (>^_^)><(^.^<)
[22:44] <acrousey> burhan: apt-get install gparted?
[22:44] <Pirate_Hunter> Gnea: *of course
[22:44] <burhan> acrousey: yeap.
[22:44] <alistair_> Guys I have installed xchat but there is no /home/user/.xchat2/sounds any suggestions?
[22:44] <acrousey> thanks
[22:45] <Gnea> Pirate_Hunter: i was just being sarcastic ;)
[22:45] <Pirate_Hunter> Gnea: i was being friendly
[22:45] <Dazed> does anybody use the xfire plugin for pidgin?
[22:45] <Valect> echo > /home/`whoami`/.xchat2/sounds
[22:45] <atlef> jamie25: it would be batter to activate the medibuntu repository and install it from there in synaptic
[22:45] <butcherboys> ok, that link really didn't have an answer for my particular issue. i've got everything setup and i can boot to linux but my windows doesn't show on boot up
[22:45] <burhan> Valect: uh, that won't do much.
[22:45] <Pirate_Hunter> alistair_: once you downlaoded it and run it for the first time the files get created, what are you trying to do to xchat?
[22:45] <Valect> it'll create the file
[22:45] <Nixk490> hi
[22:45] <Valect> :x
[22:46] <Nixk490> can i get some help
[22:46] <burhan> Valect: perhaps you meant touch /home/$USER/.xchat2/sounds
[22:46] <Pirate_Hunter> Dazed: FF plugin for pidgin, whats that about?
[22:46] <Valect> touch is so dirty
[22:46] <wng-> butcherboys: do you mean it doesn't boot up, or it isn't in grub.conf?
[22:46] <Dazed> i said xfire plugin
[22:46] <acrousey> burhan: how can i use gparted once i have it?
[22:46] <georgy_28> !ask > Nixk490
[22:46] <TeslaTony> !ask | Nixk490
[22:46] <Pirate_Hunter> butcherboys: you mean grub doesnt see your windows operating system?
[22:47] <burhan> acrousey: run it from the menu, and see if your new disk is detected; you probably need to create a partition in it.
[22:47] <atlef> !medibuntu > jamie25:
[22:47] <Nixk490> hey i need help with my rage 128 pro video card
[22:47] <Dazed> the xfire plugin for pidgin is giving me this annoying error msg everytime it starts, can anybody help
[22:47] <butcherboys> wng: it isn't in the grub.conf. i think i installed the grub on my primary drive where my windows is
[22:47] <alistair_> Pirate_Hunter: it has no sounds so I went to preferences and there are no sounds in there, or the directory BTW how do I get to address to each chat member without having to type username each time pse?
[22:47] <Nixk490> i cant find any linux drivers for it
[22:47] <pisse> burhan: ok.. I don't know if it helped.. how do I check? :]
[22:47] <alistair_> username:
[22:47] <dmoerner>  Nixk490 i think there is an article in tutorials & tips on the forums about that
[22:47] <acrousey> partition editor?
[22:47] <burhan> pisse: did it ask you to set a mysql root password?
[22:47] <Nixk490> ive read it
[22:48] <Nixk490> but nothing....
[22:48] <Nixk490> ive tryed ever rage driver
[22:48] <guntbert> alistair_: begin typing, then <TAB>
[22:48] <Nixk490> but nothing
[22:48] <atlef> Nixk490: have you tried envyng
[22:49] <pisse> burhan: nope
[22:49] <Pirate_Hunter> alistair_: dont excatly knwo what youre saying but with you want to quickly type usernames just type parts of it than press tab for it to autocompelete the username "most of the times it gets it right", if you wish to talk to the same person again without typing their name just press the up arrow key "that also shows your previous posts"
[22:49] <butcherboys> wng: windows is on my first drive (master) and ubuntu is on a second HDD (slave) and it will only let me boot to linux. windows isn't even an option
[22:49] <Nixk490> ive tryed every driver with rage in its name
[22:49] <burhan> pisse: then you need to recreate the tables from scratch.
[22:49] <burhan> pisse: shutdown the mysql server.
[22:49] <burhan> delete /var/lib/mysql
[22:49] <atlef> !envyng
[22:49] <burhan> burhan: then sudo apt-get install --reinstall mysql-server
[22:49] <atlef> !envyng > Nixk490:
[22:50] <Pirate_Hunter> butcherboys: you need to reinstall grub again
[22:50] <Nixk490> ?
[22:50] <filthpig> Hi, I'm having a really odd wlan problem. I'm running gutsy on both my laptop and my desktop, and I have an unsecured wireless network (yeah I know, but the router won't work if I try enabling wep/wpa). Anyhoo, My laptop, which I'm using right now, finds the network among a few others and connects easily. The desktop, however, does not detect my network, but it DOES detect the networks of my neighbors. Those networks are encrypted, however.
[22:50] <filthpig> I've tried setting essid manually (which did work at first, but suddenly didn't anymore), and I've tried with two different USB wireless adapters which are both reported to work out of the box in gutsy. I'm at a loss as to what's wrong since I can detect every other network available but my own :s
[22:50] <alistair_> Pirate_Hunter, excellent tks. re sound I went to preferences in xchat and there are no sound files there
[22:50] <Pirate_Hunter> !grub | butcherboys
[22:50] <burhan> pisse: then sudo apt-get install --reinstall mysql-server
[22:50] <butcherboys> ok, i'll give that a shot. is it a problem if i had installed it on my windows mbr?
[22:50] <butcherboys> i installed ubuntu after windows
[22:50] <Pirate_Hunter> alistair_: what are you trying to do with sound, sorry I dont get it so please explain from the begining?
[22:51] <Nixk490> so can you help me?
[22:51] <pisse> burhan: ok.. I'm supposed to get the root-password window now?
[22:51] <Pirate_Hunter> butcherboys: no it is not a problem to install it to the mbr i "myself" prefer installing grub to the mbr
[22:51] <acrousey> when partitioning a drive, which should i use if i want to be able to access it with Ubuntu, Windows, and Mac?
[22:51] <burhan> pisse: hopefully
[22:51] <alistair_> Pirate_Hunter, on chatzilla when I am paged eg you post me a message there is a notify sound with xchat there are no sounds and no .xchat sounds directory
[22:51] <pisse> burhan: well, I didn't.. =/
[22:51] <burhan> acrousey: fat32
[22:51] <butcherboys> Pirate_Hunter:  thanks. i'm going to try and fix it now
[22:51] <Pirate_Hunter> pisse: there si no such thing as root pasw, it works with sudo
[22:52] <burhan> pisse: hrmm...did you delete the /var/lib/mysql directory?
[22:52] <Valect> there is to a root password
[22:52] <Valect> it just happens to be random
[22:52] <acrousey> burhan: I'm not getting that option
[22:52] <pisse> burhan: did you tell me to? :]
[22:52] <Valect> you can adjust that with sudo passwd root
[22:52] <jamie25> Ok so i tried both commands sudo ./googleearthlinux.bin -> command not found I also tried sudo apt-get install googleearthlinux.bin -> and I got E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock (11 resources tempraily unavailable)
[22:52] <burhan> pisse: yes.
[22:52] <alistair_> Pirate_Hunter, eg /home/alistair/.xchat2/sounds there is no such directory
[22:52]  * butcherboys thanks everyone who helped. gonna go try and fix issue
[22:53] <root> hi, if i want to find out which sda my ubuntu is on, how do i do this?
[22:53] <pisse> burhan: yeah you did.. wasn't highlighted though
[22:53] <Pirate_Hunter> alistair_: there is go /home/urname and do ctrl+h to show hidden files they start with .filename/.foldername its there
[22:53] <Valect> root: type mount
[22:53] <bastid_raZor> acrousey; probably ntfs
[22:53] <burhan> pisse: again, stop mysql server, uninstall it ( sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server ), remove the /var/lib/mysql directory, then install mysql server sudo apt-get install mysql-server
[22:53] <paolo> Hi everybody!!!
[22:53] <Valect> also, don't irc as root
[22:53] <Valect> fail
[22:53] <bastid_raZor> acrousey; but i jumped in late.. what is the partition going to be used for?
[22:54] <acrousey> bastic_razor: i want to be able to access it from windows and mac
[22:54] <B3z3rk3r> hey all
[22:54] <Nixk490> Can someone give me support on a video card problem?
[22:54] <burhan> acrousey: what do you mean you are not getting that option?
[22:54] <marcelo> jamie25: do you have the root password?
[22:54] <bastid_raZor> acrousey; what is going to be on the partition? ubuntu? just files?
[22:54] <acrousey> files, but on the ubuntu computer
[22:54] <B3z3rk3r> Nixk490: what kinda card do u have?
[22:55] <Nixk490> rage 128 \pro
[22:55] <Pirate_Hunter> alistair_: if you want sound on alert when ppl talk to you than in xchat it is settings>pref>chatting>sound choose which sound you want and the sound file you dont have to go to the .xchat folder
[22:55] <pisse> burhan: no password-sign...
[22:55] <Nixk490> no \ lol typo
[22:55] <alistair_> Pirate_Hunter, true - I did not know that :-(   but there is no sounds directory
[22:55] <bastid_raZor> acrousey; sadly windows is the only thing that is holding you back from using anything better than fat32.. like burhan said.
[22:55] <jamie25> Marcelo: Is the root password the same as my adminstative password? The one I use to log into linux?
[22:55] <B3z3rk3r> i gathered... :)
[22:55] <Nixk490> ATI RAGE 128 PRO
[22:55] <rick-u64> Hi all. Quick question; Is it generally safe to run an insecure guest OS inside virtualbox on ubuntu? I am running Ubuntu Hardy 64 bit, and have XP Pro installed in virtualbox. I just want to know if I can skip having to install all the security apps in XP since I'm already secure in the host OS.
[22:55] <B3z3rk3r> i gathered... :)?
[22:55] <pisse> burhan: http://pastebin.com/m61043053
[22:55] <Nixk490> ok
[22:55] <jamie25> Marcelo: If so that is that same password I used
[22:56] <atlef> rick-u64: it's ok
[22:56] <burhan> pisse: pastebin apt-cache policy mysql-server
[22:56] <B3z3rk3r> Nixk490: whats the prob with it then?
[22:56] <bastid_raZor> acrousey; i don't think you can use fat32 for a installation of ubuntu though.
[22:56] <alistair_> Pirate_Hunter, anyway its no big deal - xchat is superior to chatzilla imho
[22:56] <Pirate_Hunter> alistair_: just looking at my sound options in xchat it shows there is a sound directory but there is no sound cause i havent set sound which makes sense
[22:56] <burhan> rick-u64: sure.
[22:56] <atlef> rick-u64: you can only destroy your virtual machine, i think
[22:57] <pisse> burhan: http://pastebin.com/m15486b43
[22:57] <marcelo> jamie25: do this: sudo passwd root.
[22:57] <Nixk490> i can't find drivers for it, there are other rage drivers though, but not for the pro edition, i tryed them but ubuntu crashes
[22:57] <rick-u64> atlef: cool. one more question if you don't mind; how would I go about saving files to the host OS from the guest OS? I want to run flash 8 pro in XP and save my projects' swf files and stuff on the host so I can use them.
[22:57] <acrousey> when i try to set a disklabel my options are: msdos,  amiga,  bsd,  dvh,  gpt,  mac,  pc98,  s390,  sun,  loop
[22:57] <alistair_> Pirate_Hunter, guess you have to get your own sounds and put them into the directory or use system sounds
[22:57] <wam> chalcedony: you there?
[22:58] <burhan> pisse: login with your normal user.
[22:58] <Pirate_Hunter> alistair_: it is true nautilus shows no sound directory but inside .xchat2 their is a sound.conf which is empty that explains where xchat might write/save your sound config
[22:58] <jamie25> ok thats done
[22:58] <burhan> pisse: just type mysql -p
[22:58] <atlef> rick-u64: take a walk through of these results : http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=virtualbox+share+files
[22:58] <filthpig> on closer investigation, it seems like ubuntu loads both rt73usb and rt2x00usb when connecting an adapter. The adapter is a D-link GWL-122 hw. ver. C1, fw. ver. 3.10. The box even claims "Linux Support" on the front..
[22:58] <guntbert> alistair_:  I'm using xchat too, but I see no sound-settings in preferences
[22:58] <khelll> how can i add a set of icons to my theme?
[22:58] <Dazed> if i wanted to go about optimizing my 3d performance in ubuntu, what would I do? I don't think im configured properly
[22:58] <pisse> burhan: http://pastebin.com/m2d41819d
[22:58] <Dazed> !3d
[22:58] <Pirate_Hunter> alistair_: jsut configure sound inside xchat and it will write it for you in the folder dont mess directly with the files or folders unless you know what your doing
[22:58] <marcelo> jamie25: choose a root password, and then log as root typing su and then the password you have chosen. ok?
[22:58] <atlef> rick-u64: but you need to make a shared folder
[22:59] <Dazed> !performance
[22:59] <alistair_> guntbert, its under Chatting/Sound
[22:59] <Dazed> !tweaking
[22:59] <burhan> pisse: sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart
[22:59] <rick-u64> atlef: ah cool thanks

[22:59] <atlef> !virtualbox > entertrack:
[22:59] <burhan> pisse: ah, here we go.

[23:00] <Dazed> !ati
[23:00] <seekingtruth> i run ubuntu as a guest and windows as a host using virtualbox.  I forgot my ubuntu login password.  How can I retrieve it pls?
[23:00] <burhan> pisse: df -h
[23:00] <alistair_> Pirate_Hunter, is there a systems sound directory aka Windows that Ubuntu uses?
[23:00] <marcelo> jamie25: now run ./googleearth....(the name of the file)
[23:00] <khelll> how can i add a set of icons to my theme?
[23:00] <alistair_> guntbert, you using xchat?
[23:00] <pisse> burhan: http://pastebin.com/m6384677a
[23:00] <Slart> seekingtruth: can't you use the recovery boot thingy? I think that will give you a root shell or something..
[23:00] <Dazed> !optimizing
[23:00] <burhan> seekingtruth: boot your vm from the iso, then you can reset it.
[23:00] <Pirate_Hunter> alistair_: yes but why do you want it and i dont know exactly where that is
[23:00] <seekingtruth> Slart: recoery boot thingy?

[23:01] <acrousey> burhan,   bastid_raZor: when i try to set a disklabel my options are: msdos,  amiga,  bsd,  dvh,  gpt,  mac,  pc98,  s390,  sun,  loop
[23:01] <JeanEdouardF> Hi there !
[23:01] <Slart> seekingtruth: I don't really know what it looks like when you use virtualbox..but a regular install has a recovery mode at boot
[23:01] <rick-u64> will go try some stuff I'll be back if I have any more questions. Thanks a lot for the help.
[23:01] <seekingtruth> Slart: so whats the use of habing ubuntu password if its that easy to bypass?
[23:02] <burhan> pisse: ls -l /var/lib
[23:02] <alistair_> Pirate_Hunter, just oftentimes you want to assign a system sound to an event - like for instance this chat if you have a notify sound, its easier to multitask yourself do something else until someone calls u
[23:02] <Slart> seekingtruth: linux isn't really supposed to be secure against anyone with physical access to the machine
[23:02] <JeanEdouardF> How to shutdown  wlan0 in order to launch wlan1 automatically at startup ?
[23:02] <burhan> acrousey: a disklabel is not a partition type.
[23:02] <Valect> no OS is secure with physical access
[23:02] <seekingtruth> Slart: how can I make it secure?  I locked grub already. what else?
[23:02] <pisse> burhan: http://pastebin.com/m5c3587e
[23:03] <Valect> seekingtruth you'd be wasting time
[23:03] <Slart> seekingtruth: well.. disk encryption is a must.. and there's probably lots of other stuff to lock down
[23:03] <acrousey> burhan: that's the only stuff i am able to get, even if i try to make a new partition
[23:03] <khelll> atlef doing so is giving me this error msg : "Icons" does not appear to be a valid theme.
[23:03] <Valect> no matter what you did, short of shooting me on site, i could take over your machine if physically present
[23:03] <cautionaryx> seekingtruth: desktop or laptop?
[23:03] <Derander> Can anyone recommend a good ISO burner for windows?
[23:03] <Slart> !burniso
[23:03] <DeliPenguen> can someone give me some advice for a disk analyzer tool for ubuntu?
[23:03] <burhan> pisse: sudo mkdir /var/lib/mysql && sudo shown mysql:mysql /var/lib/mysql && sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
[23:03] <DeliPenguen> i want to check my disk
[23:03] <Slart> DeliPenguen: disk analyzer? what kind of info do want to aquire?
[23:04] <alistair_> Derander, I have plenty which are good all freeware sec I will advise..............
[23:04] <atlef> khelll: then you may have downloaded the wrong theme icons. where did you get them from
[23:04] <pisse> burhan: shown == chown, right?
[23:04] <damien_> how do you make xchat-gnome show the users panel all the time? i.e. so you dont' have to click on the button each time to see users?
[23:04] <Pirate_Hunter> seekingtruth: do you really need to make it secure? ask yourself who else is going to use the machine other than you, chances of being hacked, how strong is your password, what ahve you got to hide?
[23:04] <burhan> pisse: yes
[23:04] <DeliPenguen> i have debian on my disk and i cant open my system now
[23:04] <burhan> DeliPenguen: for what?
[23:04] <DeliPenguen> for any errors
[23:04] <bastid_raZor> damien; ctrl f7 will bring up the window
[23:04] <burhan> DeliPenguen: fsck
[23:04] <DeliPenguen> debian says input output error on sda
[23:05] <seekingtruth> Pirate_Hunter: you are one to ask LOL with all your illegal porn, cracks, serials lol
[23:05] <DistroJockey> damien_, you don't. You'd use xchat instead
[23:05] <pisse> burhan: http://pastebin.com/m6dd615f9
[23:05] <seekingtruth> cautionaryx: laptop HP
[23:05] <DeliPenguen> ok burhan thanks.
[23:05] <mutk> I assume apt suite of applications can _list_ packages available at the shell, right? Looking at man page for apt-get I don't see the option. Any have a quick tip?
[23:05] <gregge> when I run Pulseaudio flash-videos have no audio.. and i can't listen to mp3's either. Is there any way to have pulseaudio running AND have audio working?
[23:05] <Slart> mutk: apt-cache
 seekingtruth you'd be wasting time <-- why?
[23:05] <burhan> pisse: try this, not sure if it will work, but its worth it before we do the brute force way: sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server
[23:05] <Derander> gregge: never worked for me, I just killed pulseaudio and used straight alsa
[23:05] <alistair_> Derander, my favourite windows is Imgburn
[23:06] <Valect> seekingtruth [15:03:21] <Valect> no matter what you did, short of shooting me on site, i could take over your machine if physically present
[23:06] <Slart> gregge: install paman padevchooser pavucontrol and see if it helps
[23:06] <Derander> alistair_, Will take a look.
[23:06] <pisse> burhan: and after that sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start?
[23:06] <burhan> pisse: yes.
[23:06] <mutk> Slart, Really? That is hardly user friendly is it? By the name I'd think that was a cache control tool.. Anyway thanks :)
[23:06] <jamie25> same errors as before.. i can see the .bin file on my desktop
[23:06] <pisse> burhan: fail again
[23:07] <seekingtruth> Valect: how would you take over my machine?
[23:07] <gregge> Slart: I'll try it
[23:07] <Derander> If you have physical access, you can do anything
[23:07] <Derander> at best, it just takes time
[23:07] <alistair_> Derander, what about ubuntu brasero I'd think Linux would be better burning platform than Windows?
[23:07] <mutk> Something like 'apt list packages'   would be far more intuitive IMO
[23:07] <Slart> mutk: it's user friendly for very specific values of "user" =)
[23:07] <khelll> atlef  http://www.catswhocode.com/blog/os/gnu-linux/10-icons-sets-to-customize-your-gnulinux-desktop-160
[23:08] <Derander> alistair_, yeah, I generally use linux to burn things but I changed mobos and need to reinstall
[23:08] <blip-> hi everyone, there is a parameter for configuring wbar's onscreen position called -pos. apparently you can specify things like "-pos left" but i want to specify a numerical value for location since it doesn't support nvidia twinview and the location is messed up. the help menu says the position could be: "top | bottom | left | right | center | <bot|top>-<right|left>"  ...  problem is i don't understand the format,  i tried "wbar -pos 20|20-20|20" but it
[23:08] <blip-> failed...   thanks
[23:08] <seekingtruth> Valect: can you help me secure my Ubuntu, so that even you could not gain access and read my personal emails etc?
[23:08] <bastid_raZor> alistair_; i am a fan of k3b.
[23:08] <marcelo> jamie25: can't you run it?
[23:08] <burhan> pisse: do you have a /var/log/mysql.log ?
[23:08] <seekingtruth> alistair_: i like gnomebaker
[23:08] <Valect> seekingtruth no, sorry, i'm busy right now, but i'm being serious about this too: physical access to a machine can never be considered secure
[23:08] <pisse> burhan: yes I have
[23:08] <terrestre> k3b fan here too
[23:09] <burhan> pisse: pastebin it please
[23:09] <mutk> Slart, That is true regardless of distro :)
[23:09] <marcelo> as root you are allowed to run any program.
[23:09] <diazepam> hey guys can anyone recommend a blog site that allows for code boxes (i want to keep notes on systems i have set up)
[23:09] <alistair_> OK, but man, I have been away from Linux for years, but crikey, if I knew how good ubuntu was I would have been back gere ages ago.
[23:09] <seekingtruth> Valect: you are too busy, because you are full of it LOL all words, no action LOL
[23:09] <seekingtruth> Valect: you couldnt hack into a paper bag :)
[23:09] <Valect> seekingtruth actually i'm setting up openvpn for a company
[23:09] <atlef> khelll: http://art.gnome.org/ try here
[23:09] <Valect> i didn't say anything about hacking either
[23:09] <alistair_> Winxp gets old, tired and annoying :-(  plus registration probs of course ;-)
[23:09] <bastid_raZor> !ot | seekingtruth Valect
[23:10] <jamie25> from the command line i tried sudo ./googleearthlinux.bin  & I get command not found
[23:10] <seekingtruth> Valect: thats what you claim, on IRC you can claim anything.  Unless you can show me how to secure Ubuntu, I doubt your words
[23:10] <seekingtruth> bastid_raZor: ok
[23:10] <Valect> bastid_raZor i realize this, he's the one who took it to a personal level
[23:10] <pisse> burhan: it's empty.. http://pastebin.com/m17a802f7 the mysql.err is also empty
[23:10] <Pirate_Hunter> seekingtruth: "Valect: can you help me secure my Ubuntu, so that even you could not gain access and read my personal emails etc?" that made me chuckle
[23:10] <marcelo> jamie25: don't type sudo.
[23:10] <seekingtruth> Pirate_Hunter: yeah me too :) because I know he cant :)
[23:10] <Slart> seekingtruth: all advice given here is like that.. if you don't like it go somewhere else
[23:10] <Valect> seekingtruth i just told you, you can't secure a machine when physical access is involved
[23:10] <Slart> seekingtruth: taunting people won't get you help
[23:10] <marcelo> jamie25: just ./google.....
[23:11] <alistair_> Can anyone suggest how I get my mail accounts off Windows XP Thunderbird to Linux? I only want the accounts settings not the mail
[23:11] <seekingtruth> Valect: I use PGP to encrypt all my personal text files.  Are you claiming you can gain access to my text files?
[23:11] <burhan> pisse: sudo /usr/bin/mysql_install_db --user=mysql
[23:11] <cautionaryx> seekingtruth: truecrypt
[23:11] <burhan> pisse: then ls -l /var/lib/mysql
[23:11] <cautionaryx> seekingtruth: and you'll also want to lock the BIOS so the boot order cant be changed
[23:12] <seekingtruth> cautionaryx: I cannot find anywhere on entire internet a guide to get truecrypt working on Hardy
[23:12] <Slart> !truecrypt
[23:12] <lunch>  #
[23:12] <seekingtruth> cautionaryx: yes I put password on BIOS.  but cant they bypass that by replacing hard drgive into another PC?
[23:12] <Pirate_Hunter> alistair_: if your using evolution it is similar as copying your settings from outlook but resembles thunderbird more. however you mail client should have a help page that could be of help
[23:12] <bastid_raZor> alistair_; can't you export your addressbook then copy that file over?
[23:12] <Valect> seekingtruth have a nice day, i'm not going to feed you
[23:12] <pisse> burhan: http://pastebin.com/m4abfb01a and http://pastebin.com/m2b33e38
[23:12] <gregge> Derander: Do you simply kill pulseaudio to use Alsa instead? Or do you need to activate it somehow?
[23:12] <burhan> seekingtruth: if a person has physical access to your machine, then all the virtual security is not going to help you.
[23:13] <seekingtruth> Valect: thats because you cant "feed" me, you dont know :) busted :)
[23:13] <Valect> oh snap, i'm a noob
[23:13] <seekingtruth> burhan: can you break PGP encrypted files?
[23:13] <Valect> my bad
[23:13] <Valect> i don't know shit about nix, you're right
[23:13] <Slart> seekingtruth: this is getting very offtopic here.. take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[23:13] <Pirate_Hunter> seekingtruth: i think now your just going around in circles please go to #ubuntu-offtopic
[23:13] <alistair_> not worried about addressbook got that sussed but its the accounts I want and have searched for it google
[23:13] <burhan> pisse: pastebin /etc/my.cnf
[23:13] <seekingtruth> cautionaryx: can you setup truecrypt on Hardy?
[23:13] <cautionaryx> nope
[23:13] <kevinOO> !language | Valect
[23:13] <cautionaryx> really never needed to
[23:13] <burhan> seekingtruth: no, but I can find someone that can for the right amount of money.
[23:13] <pisse> burhan: doesn't exist
[23:13] <seekingtruth> anyone know how to setup TC on Hardy?
[23:14] <cautionaryx> seekingtruth: did you search the forums?
[23:14] <Pirate_Hunter> !ot |seekingtruth
[23:14] <Valect> there is irony in that your rules don't allow me to insult myself
[23:14] <digitalis> hello all, does anyone know how to remove the minirosetta service? when I kill it in htop, it just respawns
[23:14] <bastid_raZor> alistair_; unsure about that.. get back in to windows and write down the pop or imap info you need. then simply set it up using that info
[23:14] <pisse> burhan: I tried this: http://pastebin.com/m6b23ac13
[23:14] <seekingtruth> !language | Valect
[23:14] <burhan> pisse: sorry, cat /etc/mysql/my.cnf
[23:14] <seekingtruth> cautionaryx: yes, nothing about TC on hardy on the forums
[23:14] <Slart> digitalis: most services can be started/stopped by running "sudo /etc/init.d/<service name> stop
[23:15] <pisse> burhan: I can login on mysql with root user using no password
[23:15] <seekingtruth> !truecrypt
[23:15] <burhan> pisse: logout of mysql.
[23:15] <Quarky> seekingtruth> I have instaled truecrypt (with the gui thing) on feisty fawn
[23:15] <seekingtruth> cautionaryx: I followed 2 guides how to setup TC, but they didnt work on Hardy.
[23:15] <digitalis> slart, thanks what do I need to edit as well to stop it starting on system startup?
[23:15] <jamie25> ok i typed ./googleearthlinux.bin -> bash: ./googleearthlinux.bin: no such file or directory. when I double click on the file on my desktop i get -> Couldn't display "/home/jamie/Desktop/GoogleEarthLinux.bin". There is no application installed for this file type
[23:15] <alistair_> bastid_raZor, there might be another method that works - not sure but if I select only one mail out of each account and export that it might carry the account setting as well worth a shot I suppose
[23:15] <pisse> burhan: http://pastebin.com/m4b4b1b07
[23:15] <cautionaryx> seekingtruth: okay
[23:15] <Slart> digitalis: hmm.. I don't really know.. but ubotty might have some info for you..
[23:15] <seekingtruth> Quarky: i cant get it to work on Hardy
[23:15] <Slart> !boot | digitalis
[23:15] <digitalis> thanks!
[23:15] <krel> hi.  I'm getting this error: ** (gnome-settings-daemon:6050): WARNING **: Couldn't connect to session bus: Failed to execute dbus-launch to autolaunch D-Bus session .  I followed http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=579167&page=3 that thread's advice.  But /usr/bin/dbus-launch does not exist.
[23:16] <Quarky> have you search in the foruns ?
[23:16] <Slart> jamie25: linux is case sensitive
[23:16] <krel> which package has /usr/bin/dbus-launch?
[23:16] <burhan> pisse: great, now log out of mysql, and run mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password'
[23:16] <Quarky> maybe ull find the article there
[23:16] <seekingtruth> Quarky: yes, nothing about hardy
[23:16] <Quarky> hmm
[23:16] <Slart> jamie25: make sure you spell google earth correctly.. GoogleEarth is not the same as googleearth
[23:16] <pisse> burhan: done
[23:16] <seekingtruth> Quarky: the forums are full, but notnhing at all about getting TC working in Hardy
[23:16] <krel> (it was not, as I guessed, dbus)
[23:16] <karlaj> Hey guys, which is the best IRC client for ubuntu? the one that looks the best, and are there any good "MSN" client?
[23:16] <seekingtruth> karlaj: xchat
[23:16] <burhan> pisse: now try logging in as root. You should get an error.
[23:17] <seekingtruth> karlaj: and aMSN
[23:17] <Slart> karlaj: try typing !best in here
[23:17] <Quarky> try to get the source (download from CVS or from site) then make :s i hope u get it fine
[23:17] <Quarky> i had to build it
[23:17] <seekingtruth> karlaj: sudo apt-get install amsn
[23:17] <blip-> let me rephrase and shorten:    does anyone here understand what this means regarding wbar position parameter.   it says "wbar -pos <bot|top>-<right|left>"  . ... how do i specify numbers in that format ?
[23:17] <Jimmie23>  Hey I'm about to install Ubuntu on my laptop does anyone have any reason why I should not ?
[23:17] <karlaj> seekingtruth and burhan, thanks
[23:17] <pisse> burhan: yeah.. except when I use the correct password :P
[23:17] <seekingtruth> karlaj: sudo apt-get install xchat
[23:17] <Slart> karlaj: amsn is popular.. pidgin also supports the msn protocol
[23:17] <seekingtruth> karlaj: welcome :)
[23:17] <krel> ah, dbus-x11.  okay nevermind carry on.
[23:17] <komies> Hi guys. I'm having some issues with fonts on my machine... I haven't made any changes, but I'm noticing that a lot of fonts on pages that use my default are suddenly not bolded like usual, or they're smaller, or there are extra line breaks. same goes for some java-based desktop applications. anyone know how I can resolve this?
[23:17] <burhan> pisse: great, so now you are back to normal.
[23:17] <karlaj> !best
[23:17] <Pirate_Hunter> seekingtruth: dont suggest amsn as a client since it is from the proposed backports and he/she can use the default client which is pidgin
[23:17] <burhan> pisse: enjoy mysql :)
[23:17] <seekingtruth> Pirate_Hunter: I do what I want, you are not my boss
[23:18] <seekingtruth> Pirate_Hunter: If I want to suggest amsn, i can
[23:18] <Valect> seekingtruth you are a twit
[23:18] <burhan> komies: did you change video settings?
[23:18] <seekingtruth> Valect: takes one to know one :)
[23:18] <guntbert> !pvt > me
[23:18] <komies> burhan: I don't think so. I wouldn't even know how to go about doing that.
[23:18] <Valect> at least you recognize this trait of yours
[23:18] <Slart> take it elsewhere.. this is a support channel
[23:18] <seekingtruth> !language | Valect
[23:18] <pisse> burhan: nice! yeah the pisse user is gone and I've got some other users now.. so it looks nice.. thanks alot for your help!
[23:18] <Valect> ...
[23:18] <Pirate_Hunter> seekingtruth: youre just going to give him more trouble as he/she will come here asking how to get it working :/
[23:18] <seekingtruth> Slart: ok
[23:18] <terrestre> karlaj, its better if you use the amsn from getdeb
[23:18] <Jimmie23> ??
[23:18] <some_person> whenever I lock my computer and the screensaver runs, the computer always freezes up.
[23:18] <Jimmie23>  Hey I'm about to install Ubuntu on my laptop does anyone have any reason why I should not ????
[23:18] <seekingtruth> Pirate_Hunter: then I will help him
[23:18] <Slart> some_person: graphics drivers working alright?
[23:18] <Pirate_Hunter> Where are the ops to start kicking
[23:18] <jamie25> No luck on this one
[23:19] <karlaj> terrestre: Better then what? (new to linux)
[23:19] <burhan> Jimmie23: are you looking for an excuse to not install it?
[23:19] <seekingtruth> i can get amsn working and im happy to help anyone else get it working
[23:19] <komies> that's just one of the weird things. lots of times I end up with my sound control or terminal freezing up.
[23:19]  * Pirate_Hunter wheer are the ops to start kicking the attitude here is becoming annoying now
[23:19] <komies> but right now I'm trying to figure out why the line breaks are acting weird :)
[23:19] <Slart> Jimmie23: try just running the live cd first.. see if wifi/sound etc works
[23:19] <some_person> Slart: yes
[23:19] <terrestre> karlaj, the amsn from add/remove program have a bug right now
[23:19] <Slart> some_person: hmm.. that's usually what kills a computer when the screensaver kicks in.. something shiny that uses all kinds of 3d stuff.
[23:19] <komies> It's like someone highlighted almost all my web-based stuff and double-spaced it :/
[23:20] <Slart> some_person: anything in the logs?
[23:20] <Jimmie23> burhan: no I 'm wanting to know if there is a disto that is more suitable for laptops
[23:20] <karlaj> terrestre: ah! ok thanks, so how do i get it from wher eyou said?
[23:20] <blip-> !language | Pirate_Hunter
[23:20] <seekingtruth> !amsn | karlaj
[23:20] <some_person> slart: the logs?
[23:20] <terrestre> karlaj, getdeb.net just download and click
[23:20] <Valect> awesome, seekingtruth is pm'ing me with uselessly contrived insults
[23:20] <karlaj> oh its a site, thanks very much
[23:20] <Slart> some_person: check the file /var/log/syslog.. new events are added to the end of the file
[23:20] <burhan> Jimmie23: Fedora 9 is more up to date than Hardy when it comes to networking (especially wifi and gsm networks). That's about all I can say. Beyond that, all mainstream distros are the same.
[23:21] <digitalis> slart, thanks for your help...see ya
[23:21] <Slart> some_person: see if there are any messages that pop up when the comp freezes
[23:21] <Slart> you're welcome digitalis
[23:21] <marcelo> jamie25: Did you take care of the case in the name of the file?
[23:21] <Jimmie23> slart:  burhan: thank you
[23:21] <terrestre> !aptitude | terrestre
[23:21] <burhan> Jimmie23: you can check the LaptopTestingTeam pages for your particular laptop model (or one that matches it) to see if others have tested ubuntu on it. You can also just run the livecd as slart mentioned to check compatibility. Video and wifi are two pain points for laptop users.
[23:21] <some_person> slart: when it freezes up, there is no on screen message. I'll check the log
[23:21] <terrestre> !apt-get | terrestre
[23:21] <Slart> Valect: there is a #freenode channel for reporting spam etc.. go tell'em

[23:22] <AlsMe> I upgraded my xubuntu system.. and all of a sudden I can't connect to Samba through my XP machine :(
[23:22] <some_person> slart: it's not frozen now. I can look into the past and see what happened
[23:22] <Pirate_Hunter> blip-: what language?
[23:22] <komies> burhan: do you have any other ideas?
[23:22] <Slart> some_person: yes, that works
[23:22] <AlsMe> how to I fix this?
[23:23] <burhan> komies: sorry? regarding what?
[23:23] <blip-> Pirate_Hunter: english
[23:23] <komies> the line-spacing issue
[23:23] <komies> it's skewing windows and things too :/
[23:23] <burhan> komies: I never caught the original problem. Is this the font issue?
[23:23] <jamie25> The file that was downloaded was GoogleEarthLinux.bin with G, E & L capitolized.
[23:23] <komies> right
[23:23] <jamie25> I could rename it right?
[23:23] <dmoerner> jamie25, if you need to.
[23:23] <komies> with the fonts changing, and my lots of websites and java based programs all having double the spaces usual
[23:23] <Slart> jamie25: then you'll have to spell it the same when you run it.. or use <tab> for auto completion
[23:24] <Slart> jamie25: sure, you can rename it
[23:25] <jamie25> Marcel: Ok so I renamed the file to -> earth.bin
[23:25] <burhan> komies: not sure what it could be tbh, never faced anything like across all the ubuntu versions I've used. Try sudo apt-get install fontconfig-config
[23:25] <some_person> slart: I'm not sure what I'm looking for. there's no mention of me locking my computer in the log
[23:26] <burhan> komies: and play with the settings there.

[23:26] <s1_> couldn't they make it just a little bit more simple
[23:26] <komies> gonna reboot
[23:26] <Slart> some_person: nope.. stuff like that doesn't go into the log.. you'll have to check the timestamps.. also you'll see lots of stuff when you rebooted after it crashed
[23:26] <Kvasten^> How to talk in ventrilo with a microphone in my webcam? Please help me! :(
[23:26] <marcelo> jamie25: so, run ./earth.bin
[23:27] <burhan> some_person: also, you might get the crash reporter automatically detect a crash at the next reboot. Its a feature in Hardy.
[23:27] <Slart> Valect: seems like a nice guy.. did you talk to the people in #freenode ?
[23:27] <Valect> Slart i don't actually care
[23:28] <some_person> burhan: crash reporter? how do I activate that?
[23:28] <Shadowkllr> i'm familiar with apache settings, but i'm trying to setup a sandbox for my php/webdesign, i'm running the latest version of kubuntu, currently i have 3 partitions, first is a partition for "/" which is 8gb, second is a 3gb swap , and the remaining 49 is for "/home"......right now i'm trying to change the apache configuration to point from /var/www/ to the /home directory on the other...
[23:28] <Shadowkllr> ...partition.....i tried editing the default.conf in the apache 2 directory using kwrite, but it won't save
[23:28] <robot_jesus> how do I copy something to the clipboard from the command line ?
[23:28] <Valect> bringing drama to the freenode opers will only create more drama
[23:28] <burhan> some_person: it activates by itself.
[23:28] <burhan> robot_jesus: highlight it.
[23:28] <Kvasten^> How to talk in ventrilo with a microphone in my webcam? Please help me! :(
[23:28] <some_person> burhan: can I access the data it produces?
[23:28] <robot_jesus> burhan: I need a command
[23:28] <seekingtruth> Kvasten^: have you tried Skype?
[23:28] <Slart> Shadowkllr: hmm.. I'm not sure at this but I don't think you're supposed to do it like that
[23:28] <Kvasten^> seekingtruth no?
[23:28] <Pirate_Hunter> some_person: you could always go to System>admi>system logs and see if you can find anything
[23:28] <JERONYMO> natural
[23:28] <Kvasten^> seekingtruth the problem is that everyone is talking in ventrilo..
[23:29] <burhan> some_person: I believe it shows you what its going to send to the bug system.
[23:29] <seekingtruth> Kvasten^: Skype on Ubuntu workls great and very popular.  I use it to talk to people around the woprld, using microphon and webcam
[23:29] <Slart> Shadowkllr: iirc you're supposed to make a symlink ni that /var/www folder.. or create a new config file for each site..
[23:29] <jamie25> Still no such file or directory...
[23:29] <seekingtruth> Kvasten^: ok. i didnt know that. because I thought "everyone" is talking in Skype
[23:29] <Kvasten^> seekingtruth you dont mind to try ventrilo ?
[23:29] <Shadowkllr> slart:I read about that, but i'm not quite sure I understand
[23:29] <burhan> Shadowkllr: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP#Virtual%20Hosts
[23:29] <seekingtruth> Kvasten^: is it like skype?
[23:30] <Kvasten^> seekingtruth ehm, not really. but very simpel..
[23:30] <Shadowkllr> ty burhan, i'll read it real quick and let you know, brb
[23:30] <some_person> so yeah, what does the crash reporter call it's log?
[23:30] <primistry> So how's alpha 4?
[23:30] <Pirate_Hunter> seekingtruth: your conversation with Kvasten^ is starting to go offtopic
[23:30] <Slart> Shadowkllr: in /etc/apache2 there is a folder called "sites-enabled", right?
[23:30] <burhan> some_person: it works by sending crash information to launchpad, it doesn't actually store it iirc.
[23:30] <Shadowkllr> yes
[23:30] <Kvasten^> seekingtruth do you know whar team speak is?
[23:30] <Slart> Shadowkllr: are there any files in there?
[23:30] <DistroJockey> jamie25,  try this:   chmod +x earth.bin ; ./earth.bin
[23:31] <seekingtruth> Pirate_Hunter: isnt ventrilo an ubuntu application?
[23:31] <Shadowkllr> hang on, vnc crapped out on me, gotta remote back into it
[23:31] <Slart> Shadowkllr: no worries
[23:31] <seekingtruth> Kvasten^: is that like conference calling?
[23:31] <burhan> DistroJockey: sh earth.bin is probably better.
[23:31] <seekingtruth> !ventrilo
[23:31] <Shadowkllr> yeah, default.conf, that's the file i was trying to edit
[23:31] <DistroJockey> burhan, it's a bin not a sh file though
[23:31] <some_person> burhan: I see. so how do I find the report on launchpad?
[23:31] <Kvasten^> seekingtruth what do you mean? im not very good at english..
[23:31] <tochiquits> Hi, need help with synCE for AT&T tilt. I followed the documentation but it doesn't seem to recognize the phone
[23:31] <burhan> DistroJockey: extensions are really meaningless in linux :)
[23:31] <marcelo> jamie25: are you sure you are in the same diretory as the file?  I'd recommend reading that then.. I don't quite trust my memory on this
[23:33] <jeremy_c_> How do I install the dev libs for common X development?
[23:33] <bastid_raZor> DistroJockey; does the file have execute permissions and do you have the permissions to excute it?
[23:33] <jeremy_c_> well, not development on X, but development of GUI applications that require the X dev libs.
[23:33] <seekingtruth> Kvasten^: inbuilt into my HP laptop
[23:33] <Shadowkllr> haha ok bur, im just answering his questions tho, lol.......slart, it's telling me that the file is either to big to write to disk or that the file is write protected
[23:33] <Pirate_Hunter> seekingtruth: just did a quick search and ventrillo/ventrilo is not found
[23:33] <burhan> jeremy_c_: libx11-dev
[23:33] <Shadowkllr> i was thinking the latter, so i killed the apache process, but still no avail
[23:33] <DistroJockey> bastid_raZor, well I did tell jamie25 to chmod +x
[23:34] <Shadowkllr> brb reading wiki
[23:34] <seekingtruth> Pirate_Hunter: yeah I thought it was in ubuntu repos, but its not, you are right
[23:34] <Kvasten^> seekingtruth okej. mine is in a logitech webcam :/
[23:34] <jeremy_c_> burhan: thank you
[23:34] <burhan> jeremy_c_: np
[23:34] <seekingtruth> Kvasten^: it seems its not ubuntu supported
[23:34] <jamie25> I'm in home/jamie
[23:34] <sniff> hello, i have this problem: i added a pci sata2 controller and to make that work i had to change some pci cards places, after that i started to have hard lockups with usb storage activity. i booted with acpi=off and the system is now stable, but i can't use cpufreq. i have amd powernowk8 normally active but now of course it can't find an acpi resource..any kernel parameters to make cpufreq work but acpi otherwise disabled?
[23:34] <Kvasten^> seekingtruth i googled it. it was ubuntu supported
[23:35] <burhan> jamie25: sh ~/Desktop/earth.bin
[23:35] <marcelo> jamie25: run cd Desktop
[23:35] <seekingtruth> Kvasten^: they took it out of repos?
[23:35] <Kvasten^> seekingtruth huh? what?
[23:36] <burhan> sniff: I believe cpufreq requires acpi
[23:37] <seekingtruth> anyone successfuly got TrueCrypt to encrypt their HDD on Hardy?
[23:37] <sd> im so confused about the wifi driver/firmware thing
[23:37] <jamie25> Marcel: ok now i am in the desktop
[23:38] <jamie25> do I try ./earth.bin?
[23:38] <marcelo> jamie25: try ./earth.bin
[23:38] <bastid_raZor> jamie25; if that fails do ls -al earth.bin and what does that give?
[23:38] <ERIC_H_laptop> anyone know where the initial xubuntu wallpaper during install is located on the CD?
[23:38] <sniff> burhan: what about kernel parameters to stabilize usb under heavy load? or perhaps its pci that needs stabilizing?
[23:39] <dmoerner> ERIC_H_laptop, /usr/share/wallpapers maybe?
[23:39] <sniff> i've had instability problems with usb storage before with a different machine and 2.4 kernel i think, but now they've mysteriously re-appeared
[23:39] <burhan> sniff: I'm not sure as I have never done such a thing (I don't use desktops). I would start by checked dmesg for clues.
[23:41] <sniff> burhan: yup, thanks anyways :)
[23:41] <zorn> hi, how do I get automouter to mount usb drives to the same mount points?
[23:41] <jamie25> Ok So I tried ./earth.bin and I got -> permission denied. I tried ls -al  earth.bin and I got -> -rw-r--r-- 1 jamie jamie 23048189 2008-08-14 16:37 earth.bin
[23:41] <burhan> zorn: eject them before you unplug them.
[23:41] <Slart> zorn: the mountpoint can be set by using a label for the partition
[23:41] <tesudo> oi gente tão kade as deusas???
[23:41] <burhan> jamie25: sh earth.bin
[23:41] <mutk> jamie25, chmod +x earth.bin
[23:42] <tesudo> vocês n fala de mulher??
[23:42] <Slart> !pt | tesudo
[23:43] <tesudo> #ubuntu-pt
[23:43] <tesudo> ?
[23:43] <Slart>  /join #ubuntu-pt
[23:43] <jamie25> sh command worked
[23:43] <marcelo> tesudo: porque não entra em bate papo uol pra isso?
[23:43] <LeandroLuiz> heauheua
[23:43] <tesudo> thank
[23:44] <jamie25> Thank you for those who helped me through the install :)
[23:44] <bastid_raZor> jamie25; good luck :)
[23:44] <Muff_Divr> anyone here able to connect to windows vpn with 8.01 hardy heron?
[23:44] <Muff_Divr> i can't figure this out for the life of me
[23:46] <zorn> thanks Slart, that worked perfectly
[23:46] <Slart> zorn: you're welcome
[23:46] <Gnea> muff...http://tipotheday.com/2008/04/29/connect-to-windows-vpn-server-pptp-with-ubuntu-hardy-heron/
[23:47] <perillux> I messed up my Compiz.  A while back I was messing with it and then I suddently couldn't click any buttons, whenever I clicked a window it would be like I activated the keyboard shortcut to move windows around.  Anyway, I couldn't get into the settings because I couldn't press buttons.  Now when I activate compiz and I get the little message "use previous settings" or "keep new settings", I can't click either button.  Is there a way to r
[23:47] <Pirate_Hunter> Muff_Divr: why are you using 8.01 "what is 8.01", got this from google by typing (ubuntu vpn windows) its for gutsy but should still be valid http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-connect-to-windows-vpn-server-pptp-with-ubuntu-710-gutsy-gibbon.html
[23:48] <burhan> perillux: use tab to select, and hit the spacebar to 'click' on a button.
[23:48] <Gnea> Pirate_Hunter: yeah, it was one of those "but they left!!!" kinda things
[23:48] <Shadowkllr> bur
[23:48] <Shadowkllr> ur a bloody genius
[23:48] <Shadowkllr> it worked
[23:48] <Pirate_Hunter> Gnea: hate when they do that :/
[23:49] <perillux> burhan:  I can select one of the buttons I know, but I'm woried that I won't be able to get into the menu to make changes to fix it, or even to be able to dissable compiz again once I turn it on.
[23:49] <Gnea> perillux: system->preferences->appearance->visual effects->none
[23:49] <tgillespie> hi all, is there a deb for kernel 2.6.25 for hardy?
[23:49] <burhan> tgillespie: if there is, you'll get a notifcation to upgrade.
[23:49] <Gnea> tgillespie: what burhan said
[23:50] <perillux> Gnea: that's what I'm using right now.  But I want to be able to use compiz again.  I'm really sure the problem is that I simply set the keybinding for moving windows to "mouse click" so now when I click things it just moves the window
[23:50] <tgillespie> burhan i meant a non standard one
[23:50] <tgillespie> burhan i would compile but its on a slow computer, and i just cba waiting lol
[23:50] <Gnea> !compiz | perillux
[23:50] <burhan> tgillespie: I'm sure you could commandeer one from the internet, but I doubt it would work properly.
[23:50] <perillux> Gnea: so all I really need to do is reset the keybindings
[23:50] <tgillespie> burhan :( i need my wireless support
[23:51] <burhan> tgillespie: unless someone has already done the compiling and has created the deb especially for hardy.
[23:51] <Gnea> perillux: right. check in #compiz-fusion
[23:51] <perillux> Gnea: but I have to either do it withough activating compiz first.  OR I have to do it without a mouse
[23:51] <tgillespie> guess its back to ndiswrapper then.....
[23:51] <Gnea> ....
[23:51] <perillux> Gnea: ok I'll go there now
[23:51] <dlemcoe> Hey hey. How can I delete all of my GPG keys at once and start clean?
[23:51] <burhan> perillux: compiz stores it settings in gconf, so you can use the gconf editor to 'hack' at the settings, at least that's how it used to be back in the days.
[23:52] <bastid_raZor> tgillespie; there is several kernels available.. but the possibility if you breakings things are great..
[23:52] <dmoerner> dleija, you need to create revocation certificates for all of them and export those to the keyservers
[23:52] <dmoerner> to remove gpg keys from your system just remove ~/.gnupg
[23:52] <tgillespie> bastid_raZor i can always leave the old kernel there to boot cant i?
[23:52] <ThePlaneskeeper> Question for people who may or may not know:  I am thinking of installing a Ubuntu LAMP webserver onto a 1 GB Flash Drive, with the /www/ Dir mapped to another HDD, should this be sufficient or do you think i will need a 2GB
[23:52] <burhan> tgillespie: it would be foolish not to.
[23:52] <dlemcoe> hmm
[23:52] <dmoerner> ThePlaneskeeper, do you want X?
[23:53] <burhan> ThePlaneskeeper: you should not run a webserver from a pen drive.
[23:53] <bastid_raZor> tgillespie; i had the link that listed all the kernels but i seem to have misplaced it.. let me dig around
[23:53] <Gnea> !lamp | ThePlaneskeeper
[23:53] <ThePlaneskeeper> dmoerner: no i do not want X
[23:53] <dlemcoe> hmmm. Wherer is the folder?
[23:53] <dlemcoe> Where
[23:53] <burhan> ThePlaneskeeper: you will soon run out of space in /tmp and /var with only 1 GB of space.
[23:54] <ThePlaneskeeper> burhan: what will it store in tmp and var?
[23:54] <dlemcoe> Where is the folder gnupg located?
[23:54] <kevin_123> anyone using ubuntu on an old laptop/desktop?
[23:54] <burhan> ThePlaneskeeper: /var will store mysql dbs, /tmp will probably have sessions and other miscellany.
[23:55] <burhan> dlemcoe: in your home directory
[23:55] <dlemcoe> Kevin, yah me. Old computer under VMWare sometimes
[23:55] <dlemcoe> hmm
[23:55] <regeya> crud.  I've typed /quit
[23:55] <kevin_123> dlemcoe: does your video run smooth?
[23:55] <regeya> erm, I think I meant for part of that to go somewhere else
[23:55] <dlemcoe> With VMWare tools, it's like on a regular computer
[23:55] <regeya> and hehe that looks funny
[23:56] <ThePlaneskeeper> burhan: would it then be to my advantage to partition 2-3 GB of my second HDD for each of these (3 total partitions)?
[23:56] <ryanzec> are there any tutorials on how to configure, compile and install php 5 on ubuntu.  I want to build it from source so that i can have the lastest 5.2.6 and also install 5.3 alpha?
[23:56] <kevin_123> I'll look into VMWare a bit then - when I minimize things it is like watching a blind close :)
[23:57] <Pirate_Hunter> yah the 18th they will stop flagged torrents ive got time
[23:57] <Pirate_Hunter> damn wrong place
[23:57] <terrestre> jajaj
[23:57] <dlemcoe> kevin, it's the best thing if you only want to buy/use one computer. Simply amazing. I have Ubuntu, Fedora, Windows XP Pro SP2, and Gentoo all running at once
[23:57] <Gnea> !language | Pirate_Hunter
[23:58] <ThePlaneskeeper> ryanzec: synaptic is your friend, unless you don't have X installed
[23:58] <burhan> ThePlaneskeeper: probably :)
[23:58] <kevin_123> I currently only have Ubuntu on this laptop but I am wanting to convert my main PC to Ubuntu as well
[23:58] <ThePlaneskeeper> Burhan: thankyou =) you have been very helpful
[23:58] <Pirate_Hunter> Gnea: oh the d.a.m didnt think i would get flagged for that, sorry
[23:58] <Shadowkllr> bur, now that the apache part of my lamp server is setup and in the right directory, i want mySQL to point to a directory that is just above the apache directory, in the my.conf file in mysql directory, all i need to do is edit  datadir		= /var/lib/mysql, correct?
[23:58] <dlemcoe> god! What do I delete to get rid of all my GPG keys? I can't find it
[23:59] <burhan> ryanzec: download the source, install build-essential, install the -dev for the libraries you want, and then ./configure --with-* and make
[23:59] <dlemcoe> Ubuntu FTW kevin, no matter how you cut it lol
[23:59] <Gnea> Pirate_Hunter: and trying to obscure it will get flagged as well. np
[23:59] <Gnea> dlemcoe: it's a hidden dot-folder
[23:59] <kevin_123> FTW ???
[23:59] <Gnea> dlemcoe: .gnupg
[23:59] <dlemcoe> For the win
[23:59] <dlemcoe> FTW = for the win = good
[23:59] <dlemcoe> thanks Gnea


[17:08] <nhandler> As a heads up, I have a lovely box of Ubuntu swag that I will be bringing to the Ubuntu Hour on Wednesday. I have no intention of bringing it back home :P
[19:31] <pleia2> nhandler: can you share that on list? :)
[19:31] <pleia2> I can update the meeting info
[19:33] <nhandler> pleia2: Can do
