[04:21] <MeVsTheVoices> wikkedfin: Bash is a programming language that offers much more capability over batch scripts, the O'Reilly book for it is the best, if not, there are certainly tons of tutorials for BASH
[04:22] <DasEI1> amy_:no need then, it's detected
[04:22] <amy_> DasEI1, Any idea why it doesn't seem to work/how to get it to work?
[04:22] <DasEI1> amy_: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[04:22] <luddite> Hi - i have two ubuntu's installed on the one HDD and wish to delete the old 8.04 one. Can i delete the partition if the 8.10 (which i wish to keep) is in the extended partition? Details here - http://paste.ubuntu.com/116258/
[04:22] <Wuju> Hello everyone, I am aware that Ubuntu is the most popular Linux OS. And does that mean it gets the most bug reports than any linux OS, that makes it the most stable Linux distribution?
[04:22] <DasEI1> amy_: pastebinit /var/log/syslog
[04:23] <musikgoat|main> vbox ose shouldn't have much problems in intrepid?  needing to run a centos client
[04:23] <luddite> Wuju : it has a thriving community. and they strive to reduce bugs. so answering yes would not be so positive. basically the os with the least bugs is the best.
[04:24] <DasEI1>  luddite: you can just reformat with gparted an then mount the free space somewhere to use with 8.10
[04:24] <Scunizi> usser: ok.. another question. I used nano to write that command down and save the file as "notes".. when starting nano from inside my home directory I get "Error reading /home/server/.nano_history: Permission denied.. Press Enter to continue starting nano."  Like I mentioned before, I'm ssh'd into my server and using screen (split) with irssi on the top and a bash prompt on the bottom (if that makes a difference).. Why am I getting the erro
[04:24] <Wuju> luddite: thanks for the response.
[04:25] <DasEI1> amy_: url from last cmd ?
[04:25] <usser> Scunizi, nano_history file somehow got chown'ed to some other user
[04:25] <pixelated> amy_, does it work in a VT?
[04:25] <usser> Scunizi, just run sudo chown $USERNAME:$USERNAME .nano_history
[04:25] <amy_> DasEI1, http://pastebin.com/f1c4427b3
[04:25] <luddite> DasEl1 : that would free it up surely but can i delete it and move the extended onto it?
[04:25] <Scunizi> usser: so to get it back.. just what I was going to say..
[04:25] <usser> Scunizi, yep
[04:25] <fbc> What's to load for bluetooth in xubuntu?
[04:25] <amy_> pixelated, a VT?
[04:26] <Scunizi> usser: done.. worked .. of course..
[04:27] <pixelated> amy_, virtual terminal (hit crtl+alt+F1) type on it see if it shows then use crtl+alt+F7 (or F8) to get back to X
[04:27] <DasEI1>  luddite: where is your 8.10 root ?? paste the out from : sudo fdisk -l
[04:27] <draginxx> Why is it whe I try the DEB_BUILD command in http://java.dzone.com/tips/32-bit-jdk-a-64-bit-ubuntu-sys it doesnt output a correct file?
[04:27] <draginxx> It says "No matching plugin found"
[04:28] <amy_> pixelated, it doesn't work
[04:28] <DasEI1> amy: did you enable bios support in your bios ?
[04:28] <Kikkomaso> Alright, let's pray this works... I'm installing to a USB stick so I can get it on my netbook
[04:29] <fbc> So what are the bluetooth utils that should work with xubuntu?
[04:29] <gcs8> any 1 know how to speed up HFS http file server?
[04:29] <fogobogo> Kikkomaso: you sure like soy sauce
[04:29] <Kikkomaso> fogobogo: You know it, man
[04:29] <Kikkomaso> 8U
[04:29] <mxian> i prefer la choy
[04:29] <usser> fbc, anything bluetooth, bluez and gnome-bluetooth in synaptic
[04:30] <DasEI1> amy_: if so, check http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=792562
[04:30] <russ5811> hi all. i'm trying to configure a powerline ethernet switch that whose utility will only work in a windows environment. anyone know how to make virtual box recognize a device plugged into the ethernet port?
[04:33] <Scunizi> nothing moving.. did I get disconnected?
[04:33] <mxian> if you did i wouldn't see that
[04:34] <fbc> usser, i didn't want anything that uses gnome or gnome binaries. Doesn't the xubuntu project include bluetooth programs?
[04:34] <Scunizi> just everyone stopped talking.. I have messages turned off.. did we have a netsplit?
[04:34] <mxian> i think so
[04:34] <remu> Hey everyone, I was reading this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1021120 and was getting the 401 error. However, I can't seem to find the settings.json file. Anyone know where that is tucked away?
[04:35] <arrrghhh> so i just installed ubuntu 8.10 on this dell gx260.  another 260 with very similar hardware works fine, but this one just freezes when it boots.  i can move the mouse, but the keyboard is completely unresponsive.
[04:35] <russ5811> anyone know how to configure virtual box so it can connect to a device via the ethernet port (example powerline switch or router) for configuration?
[04:35] <DasEI1> remu: sudo updatedb && locate >filename<
[04:35] <arrrghhh> russ5811, the easiest is just setting up a NAT device.
[04:36] <russ5811> arrrghhh, how does one do that?
[04:36] <arrrghhh> i don't have virtual box in front of me, but i'm sure it's in the docs.  just add a network device in the options for that particular vm.
[04:36] <Scunizi> russ5811: virtual box assumes you have a different OS loaded in it like windows.  if windows is loaded and can access the internet you should be able to reach the router with the router ip address..
[04:37] <remu> DasEI1: when I do that, it just takes the cursor to the next line with out showing me where the file is located.
[04:37] <arrrghhh> now if you need it to operate as a "physical" card... that's more difficult.
[04:37] <russ5811> i can access the internet, however, when i plug in my ethernet switch, it doesn't detect it
[04:37] <russ5811> (after unplugging ethernet connected to net
[04:37] <sophi> anyone please help me ... i have problem installing lgtk-x11-2.0
[04:37] <arrrghhh> russ5811, is there a dhcp server hooked up to the switch somewhere?
[04:38] <niko__> anyboddy know how to make aq bootable usb XP instalation for a net book with ibex?
[04:38] <russ5811> no, it's a powerline switch
[04:38] <Scunizi> russ5811: why not plug the eternet switch into the router and access it through that.. should have it's own unique address.
[04:38] <Scunizi> russ5811: what's a powerline switch?
[04:38] <russ5811> puts my network in the powerlines of the house...power outlets
[04:38] <arrrghhh> niko__, usb xp install?  no.
[04:39] <sophi> Anyone can help me??
[04:39] <andrew__> i installed ubuntu 9.04 and now i have no minimize/maximize/close buttons on my windows
[04:39] <andrew__> any idea how to fix
[04:39] <arrrghhh> niko__, even if it's possible... which it may be... with some embedded setup but either way, this is not the room to ask that.
[04:39] <niko__> have an empty msi and need to install xp to it
[04:39] <Scunizi> russ5811: ah.. so really it should be hooked up to the router (I'm thinking)
[04:39] <tritium> andrew__: 9.04 is not supported yet, as it's not even released yet.  Questions in #ubuntu+1, please.
[04:39] <arrrghhh> andrew__, this room for production ubuntu.  8.10.
[04:39] <Scunizi> russ5811: do the instructions give you a unique ip address for accessing it?
[04:39] <niko__> it is a ubuntu question
[04:40] <russ5811> well, the router is hooked up to a powerline adapter, the pc connects to anothe powerline adapter so it can communicate with the router.
[04:40] <sophi> Anyone can help me??
[04:40] <russ5811> the box i'm trying to add goes in another outlet to essentially split the signal to 4 more devices

[04:40] <ccherrett> jtek: people quit and join and talk constantly
[04:41] <sophi> #xubuntu
[04:41] <arrrghhh> russ5811, i've heard those powerline switches are very poor... not only crap bandwidth (12mbps max) but they're expensive and dodgy...
[04:41] <ccherrett> jtek: easy to loose track of what is going on
[04:41] <ccherrett> jtek: possibly 10 conversations at once
[04:41] <sophi> anyone please help me ... i have problem installing lgtk-x11-2.0
[04:41] <russ5811> i'm getting 150 mbps and streaming HD much better than my wireless
[04:41] <arrrghhh> powerline doesn't do 150mbps.
[04:41] <jtek> ccherrett tell me about it
[04:42] <ccherrett> jtek: :)
[04:42] <russ5811> says so on the box...actually 200, but i'm only getting 150
[04:42] <zael> come funziona
[04:42] <zael> ?
[04:42] <Scunizi> russ5811: ah ok.. I get it .. you're computer won't actually "see" it in the classic sense.. it should be invisible to the computer.. just a connection to the router.. if you're not connecting to the router through the powerline adaptors then there may be some additional setup on the initial adaptor that plugs into the main router.
[04:42] <fallore> i am trying to install ubuntu 8.10 from a mini cd on to a compact flash ide adaptor. the install seems to have worked but when i boot i get an error saying "grub loading stage1.5Read error"
[04:43] <zael> nice
[04:43] <zael> sorry
[04:43] <russ5811> scunizi, you got it
[04:43] <zael> a
[04:43] <russ5811> i don't need net connnectivity to configure this box. just need my vm to see it, so i can configure it
[04:43] <Scunizi> russ5811: so on the main adaptor plugged into the router.. does that have a unique IP address for setup?
[04:44] <Kikkomaso> Ok here we go
[04:44] <sophi> how to install lgtk-x11-2.0 package?
[04:44] <sophi> any idea??
[04:44] <russ5811> if so, i don't know how to find it. it's "invisible" to my network. it is basically like having a really long cat5 from my pc to my router
[04:44] <Scunizi> russ5811: do you have to configure each powerline adaptor used for each computer?
[04:44] <Geri> sophi: is it in synaptic?
[04:44] <Kikkomaso> I am trying to install Ubuntu 8.04 to my aspire one, and everything has worked; unfortunately now it says "udevd-event [1496]: run_program: '/sbin/modprobe' abnormal exit

[04:45] <russ5811> sure n8tuserf but how to show you?
[04:45] <foolz> if I am trying to upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10, what entries should I have in my sources.list file? is there anyplace to find a copy of that file that points to the correct locations? I have tried various things (including adding the three entries found here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GutsyUpgrades) and nothing has worked... it's hard to know what is right or wrong when I can't find any clear picture of what I am supposed to have i

[04:46] <russ5811> ok, give me a minute, i'll put it on picasa
[04:46] <wolter> i did # chown user:user /home/user
[04:46] <wolter> but it said as a warning that i must own the home directory and whatnot
[04:46] <sophi> Geri: i tried searching lgtk-x11-2.0  in synaptic but i dint find
[04:46] <n8tuserf> foolz-> do a fresh install, not an upgrade, upgrade usually have problems
[04:46] <tonyyarusso> russ5811: Honestly, the easiest way is to bring the adaptor's with you to a friend's house and use Windows to configure it.  We ended up using my dad's laptop.
[04:46] <Scunizi> n8tuserf: let me see if I can explain for russ5811 .. wall to internet modem to router to powerline adaptor.. move to anywhere in the house and plug in another powerline adaptor and plug the computer into that.. viola internet connection.. if it's configured correctly
[04:47] <tonyyarusso> Scunizi: yes, you have to do each adaptor once, but after that it doesn't matter.
[04:47] <russ5811> scunizi, you got it
[04:47] <Scunizi> tonyyarusso: what do you actually "do" to the adaptor?
[04:47] <foolz> n8tuserf - yeah, I will probably give up soon and do a fresh install... I was just hoping to get the upgrade to work since I am assuming the fresh install will just present me with its own set of issues (just based on my past experiences, hehe)
[04:47] <russ5811> problem is, adding switch to the existing network requires configuration.. but can't access the utils on a linux box
[04:48] <Scunizi> russ5811: is there a program that installs on windows for configuration?
[04:48] <tonyyarusso> Scunizi: I think you set a "channel" or similar configuration and a "password", so they only talk to each other, not random stuff upstream along the power grid (ie, snooping neighbors).
[04:48] <russ5811> yes, i put it in my win 7 vm, but back to the problem of the vm not "seeing" the switch via the ethernet conn
[04:48] <Scunizi> tonyyarusso: ah.. kinda like WPA type protection
[04:48] <foolz> if I do choose to do a clean install, do I have to uninstall my current Ubuntu installation first, or can I just burn an 8.10 installation CD or whatever, and overwrite my current install?  I have been letting my linux knowledge stagnate lately...
[04:48] <tonyyarusso> Scunizi: kinda, yeah
[04:49] <n8tuserf> foolz-> create a new partition for the newer os
[04:49] <Scunizi> russ5811: I mean .. is there software that has to be installed on windows to program the adaptor?
[04:49] <sophi> Geri: i tried searching lgtk-x11-2.0  in synaptic but i dint find
[04:49] <russ5811> scunizi. yes there is. and i installed it in my vm
[04:49] <houstond> Question guys, how do i check to see what kinda of video card i have, running ubuntu 8.10, also how do i know if i have the correct driver for the video card
[04:50] <tonyyarusso> houstond: lspci should give you that information.
[04:50] <houstond> lspci?
[04:50] <tonyyarusso> houstond: it's a command.
[04:50] <sophi> Geri: i have pasted log here--- http://paste.ubuntu.com/116692/
[04:50] <houstond> gocha
[04:50] <n8tuserf> houstond -> try   sudo ddcprobe
[04:50] <houstond> so what should i try first? lspci   or sudo ddcprobe?
[04:51] <sophi> how to install lgtk-x11-2
[04:51] <n8tuserf> houstond -> correct driver is relative if you are able to view the resolution you need, then it is working, its working or not
[04:51] <sophi> any idea??
[04:51] <Scunizi> russ5811: could be a win7 problem.. firewall.. permissions etc.. if you can take that same machine directly to the router and win7 can make a connection to the internet through the linux host then the adaptor should also be seen.. make sense?
[04:51] <sophi> any idea??
[04:51] <fallore> i am trying to install ubuntu 8.10 from a mini cd on to a compact flash ide adaptor. the install seems to have worked but when i boot i get an error saying "grub loading stage1.5Read error"
[04:51] <Gerinych> sophi: it says that because the package's not in synaptic
[04:52] <houstond> um heres the thing, im gettin World of warcraft on my pc, its on and running, just a lil slow. the forums said that could be cause by not having the correct driver
[04:52] <qcjn> can we use rsync so it --delete just on one side, the destination
[04:52] <russ5811> it does, the win7 vm and a winxp vm "see" the router through firefox and IE, however, these stupid config utils don't "see" the switch when it takes the place of the router...follow?
[04:52] <foolz> n8tuserf, if I installed the newer OS on a separate partition, wouldn't that take up more room?
[04:53] <wolter> but it said as a warning that i must own the home directory and whatnot
[04:53] <Scunizi> russ5811: yep.. do you have more than one adaptor?  if so make a switch and see if the adaptor just has an issue.
[04:53] <sophi> Gerinych:  so i cant install those package?
[04:53] <Marfi> are there any mods that can change my whois to hide the user?
[04:54] <Gerinych> sophi: im not sure if it exists, what's the package for?
[04:54] <draginxx> how do I install a debian package thats 32 bit on a 64 bit machine?
[04:54] <draginxx> whats the command for it dkpg --force?
[04:54] <russ5811> scunizi, i'll try that and come back if necessary. thanks for helping
[04:54] <tonyyarusso> draginxx: Step 1:  You run Debian.
[04:54] <draginxx> tonyskapunk, sorry meant ubuntu
[04:54] <russ5811> thanks to everyone else who tried to help so far too!
[04:54] <draginxx> tonyyarusso, *
[04:54] <Scunizi> russ5811: np.. good luck.. I just wish they didn't have propriatory software like that. drives me nuts.
[04:54] <tonyyarusso> draginxx: 'k.  :)  You install ia32libs and use --force-architecture iirc.
[04:54] <russ5811> danke
[04:55] <draginxx> and --force-arch thanks D

[05:06] <Marfi> houstond, type lspci. what is the video adapter?
[05:06] <Scunizi> ubuntu_: maybe if you have enough ram.. the cd doesn't touch your HD.
[05:06] <vostibackle> Is there an easy way to use the desktop CD to install ubuntu, but include an optional way to use the install as a server install?
[05:07] <ubuntu_> Scunizi:  its on my usb
[05:07] <Scunizi> vostibackle: you install the desktop and then after you can install LAMP for the server portion
[05:07] <Marfi> Louis_, http://pastebin.com/m7b9df3ef
[05:07] <ubuntu_> Scunizi:  and i have 4 gb of ram
[05:07] <Scunizi> ubuntu_: still RAM dependant
[05:07] <Scunizi> ubuntu_: try..
[05:07] <Louis_> Marfi:  thanks a lot
[05:08] <ubuntu_> Scunizi: ok is it posible this will mess up my start up usb
[05:08] <vostibackle> I mean as regards user login and turning off x and whatever else has to be done
[05:08] <Gerinych> sophi: what ubuntu do you have
[05:08] <Marfi> Louis_, np
[05:08] <Scunizi> ubuntu_: no.. shouldn't
[05:08] <sophi> Gerinych: Xubuntu
[05:08] <tsrk> uh
[05:08] <Gerinych> sophi: ok, what version
[05:08] <tsrk> what happened?
[05:08] <ubuntu_> Scunizi: also i will be useing this on other computers i know the driver will only work on this one do you think ill have problems if i use it on other computer
[05:08] <wolter> can i remove the symbolic link emblem from a folder?
[05:08] <tsrk> freenode doesn't split!
[05:09] <Marfi> lol
[05:09] <tsrk> anyway, how can I do a "press any key to continue" in a bash script?
[05:09] <Marfi> i don't think i have ever been kicked off by a split
[05:09] <n8tuserff> vostibackle -> i dont know, but try to install with debootstrap within livecd  and then you get to pick and choose which package to install with tasksel
[05:09] <tsrk> Marfi, you don't get kicked off, to them it looks like we got kicked off
[05:09] <Dat1> Scunizi: Thanks alot, got Grub back.  Was too lazy to disconnect my other drives after installing xubuntu to usb
[05:09] <tsrk> that's why it's called a split
[05:10] <Marfi> tsrk, ah, ok
[05:10] <sophi> Gerinych: 8.10
[05:12] <Marfi> how do i change my whois information?
[05:13] <Marfi> lol, wow
[05:16] <Voox> anyone know if there is a fix for intel gm965 video tearing?
[05:17] <sophi> how to install lgtk-x11-2
[05:18] <sophi> Gerinych: 8.10
[05:22] <Anacranom> looks like a big split
[05:24] <SJrX> n8tuserff yes, so really there is a bunch of crap I don't need but as I said it was the only legit version of windows I had that I could dual boot under VMWare
[05:24] <pixelated> SJrX, wish i had 2003... i am just stuck with XP and vista
[05:24] <fogobogo> lol?
[05:24] <n8tuserff> SJrX -> perhaps you can disable several server services on windows 2003 and see if it will pick up
[05:24] <Voox> anyone know if there is a fix for intel gm965 video tearing?
[05:24] <a555> yup, any idea of how to get the ubuntu cube? i forget it is sudo apt get compiz something?
[05:25] <Firio> Can't find any on the site u gave me afaik
[05:25] <SJrX> n8tuserff Hmmmmm I dunno I guess it could also be VMWare, cause it seems like CPU Usage is either 0% or 100% and dead slow.
[05:25] <n8tuserff> SJrX -> possibly yeah.. its trial and error kind of thing to tune it to your liking
[05:26] <a555> Any idea of how to get the ubuntu cube? i forget it is sudo apt get compiz something?
[05:26] <sophi> how to install lgtk-x11-2
[05:27] <Voox> a555, sudo apt-get install compiz
[05:27] <Firio> Can someone help me with a problem about using wireless internet on ubuntu?
[05:27] <pixelated> a555 probly 'sudo apt-get install compiz*'
[05:27] <SJrX> Ubuntu Cube? You might need the compiz manager
[05:27] <a555> i have compiz but not option for the cube, i had it before
[05:27] <andre_pl> i've got an external HDD that has been fscking for about 48 hours. i dont care about the data, i'm pretty sure its all trashed anyway.. but is this normal?
[05:27] <houstond> ok so i went to the website for my laptop and the drivers they offer are for windows only i think
[05:27] <Voox> a555, you could also go to add/remove type in compiz manager and install that
[05:27] <andre_pl> its been asking me if I want to clony multiplied locks every once in awhile
[05:28] <a555> Voox that is how i originally installed it
[05:28] <Firio> So what shall I do?
[05:28] <pixelated> andre_pl, it is uncommon but is possible...
[05:28] <Scunizi> houstond: look in system>admin>synaptic package manager .. search for your brand of card
[05:28] <newmember> with two NIC cards I wouldn't set the "gateway" for each NIC in the interfaces file?
[05:28] <Voox> a555, if you have compiz manager, to go system->preferences->compiz manager options (forgot the name) and enable the cube there
[05:28] <newmember> I would just have one gateway?
[05:29] <pixelated> newmember, yes, for your primary inet access
[05:29] <newmember> pixelated: ty
[05:29] <pixelated> newmember, yes one for your... etc
[05:29] <andre_pl> pixelated: the drive has been "traumatized" a bit. tried to do some repartitioning and cancelled because gparted appeared to be frozen after 3-4 hours of doing absolutely nothing, but I think it just trashed the disk, leaving it in this sorry state
[05:29] <a555> its not sudo apt-get compiz there is more at the end of compiz, i am pretty sure
[05:29] <a555> yes one gateway
[05:30] <pixelated> a555 probly 'sudo apt-get install compiz*'
[05:30] <pixelated> andre_pl, then it would probly be best to wipe and redo
[05:31] <overlord> a555, are you talking about "compizconfig-settings-manager" ?
[05:31] <disappearedng> Any1 here knows anytool that I could use for offline browsing? (saving an entire site to database)
[05:31] <Firio> I really need the help
[05:31] <a555> overlord, yes that is it the * also worked.. thank you! ;-)
[05:31] <overlord> =)
[05:31] <pixelated> a555, should have done it the first time i suggested it ;')
[05:31] <andre_pl> pixelated: whats the best way to do that without having to wait another 48 hours, I just want a clean empty ext3 drive again
[05:32] <pixelated> andre_pl, repartition it, is it your boot disk?
[05:32] <a555> pixelated, i did just took a second to get back used to linux :P
[05:32] <mikeshollen> Is there a way to put my system monitor on my task bar?
[05:32] <mikeshollen> I want to monitor my CPU and RAM usage
[05:32] <mikeshollen> And it would be nice to monitor the video card as well
[05:32] <andre_pl> pixelated: no its a usb drive.  when I tried to repartition with gparted it just hung for hours. :S
[05:33] <Scunizi> mikeshollen: right mouse click while pointed at the task bar and choose Add.. look for system monitor and "add" ..
[05:33] <pixelated> mikeshollen, right click task bar and add applet (?)
[05:33] <pixelated> andre_pl, use fdisk in a terminal
[05:34] <DasEI1>  mikeshollen:right-click on the panel, add prog ..., graca isn't mentionded in most defaults, might experiement with conky or gkrellm/lmsensors for that
[05:34] <Voox> anyone getting video tearing with intel integrated gfx?
[05:34] <andre_pl> pixelated: will do, just waiting for fsck to die now, its being an arse.
[05:34] <pixelated> Voox, tearing?
[05:35] <Firio> I'm off here.. no help here
[05:35] <Voox> pixelated, yeah, like horizontal halves when lots of movement occurs
[05:35] <Voox> pixelated, almost as if it doesnt refresh fast enough
[05:35] <sk8ball> whats tjhe best xwindows based mp3 player?
[05:35] <sk8ball> xmms or ?
[05:35] <BJ_> Hello
[05:35] <DasEI1> !best | sk8ball
[05:35] <pixelated> Voox, could be, does it stay that way or fix itself in ~1-2 seconds?
[05:36] <DasEI1> !mp3 | sk8ball
[05:36] <sk8ball> !commandfag
[05:36] <Voox> pixelated, it fixes itself
[05:36] <pixelated> sk8ball, the best is the one you are happiest with
[05:36] <sk8ball> ok
[05:36] <sk8ball> which mp3 player is superioir
[05:36] <sk8ball> to the others
[05:36] <pixelated> Voox, probly just crappy intel chipset, this machine has intel onboard and i dont get that but other issues
[05:36] <sk8ball> superior*
[05:37] <Voox> pixelated, its not the gfx card. 8.04 didnt have this and neither does windows
[05:37] <DasEI1> none, sk8ball, I use amarok
[05:37] <prince_jammys> sk8ball: there are many. amarok and bashee are popular one with many features. audacious is a lighter one, a bit like the old winamp.  there's also mplayer.
[05:37] <mikeshollen> Can I get a few people's opinions?  I am possibly interested in building a Linux Lab for my school.  The systems I would have available to me would be P4, 333mhz ram, 4xAGP slot but standard integrated intel graphics.  These systems currently have 128MB of ram.  I would like to upgrade the ram and graphics card so they can smoothly run Ubuntu, push a 22 inch monitor and game.  Would you go with 1 or 2GB of ram (I am having
[05:37] <pixelated> Voox, check if dri is activated and using hardware acceleration
[05:38] <mikeshollen> P4 2GHz systems*
[05:38] <sk8ball> so would you all say amarok is the most popular?
[05:38] <Voox> what's dri?
[05:38] <sk8ball> !google dri
[05:38] <prince_jammys> sk8ball: it's one of the most popular ones, yep
[05:38] <sk8ball> you all with all your command bots dont have one with a google script
[05:38] <andre_pl> sk8ball: amarok is very popular. but will pull in a bunch of KDE libs if you dont already have them. personally I like Exaile (sp?)
[05:38] <pixelated> mikeshollen, heh are they Dell systems? then i have one here... ;') i would say put 1GB ram in them
[05:38]  * sk8ball shakes head
[05:39] <Hornet> so ... I'm going to attempt ndiswrappering, but how does one extract drivers from installation exe's without having a windows machine with the card in question to install them on?
[05:39] <sk8ball> what about audacious
[05:39] <mikeshollen> pixalated: they're IBM NetVistas
[05:39] <prince_jammys> sk8ball: what about it?
[05:39] <DasEI1> !google > sk8ball
[05:39] <sk8ball> i just want one with good implemntation of the coedcs and a fuckn playlist
[05:39] <mikeshollen> I mean, the extra ram is pretty darn cheap
[05:39] <pixelated> Voox, direct  rendering interface, its where things are drawn on the screen with the hardware of the GPU instead of the cpu doing the work
[05:40] <sk8ball> like a old skool winamp 2.81
[05:40] <mikeshollen> But I'm really wondering if it's going to do anything at all
[05:40] <prince_jammys> sk8ball: then try audacious
[05:40] <Veratyr9> how do i force quit a program in ubuntu?  like task manager in windows.  firefox decided to stay open after i closed all the windows out
[05:40] <prince_jammys> sk8ball: you can use old winamp skins on it, too.
[05:40] <sk8ball> i dont need to organize by id3 tags and all that shite
[05:40] <DasEI1>  sk8ball : winamp even runs under wine
[05:40] <pixelated> mikeshollen, going from 128 to 1GB will do alot, 1-2 wont be really noticable...
[05:40] <gleesond> is there an application for maneging the quick launch keys on my laptop?
[05:40] <sk8ball> das, fuck wine
[05:40] <sophi> #mplayer
[05:40] <sk8ball> i can boot the windows machine
[05:40] <sk8ball> for windows
[05:40] <DasEI1> !language > sk8ball
[05:40] <pixelated> !040
[05:41] <pixelated> !o4o
[05:41] <sk8ball> Das, go recompile your kernel or something
[05:42] <sargento> Good Evening, is there any way I can see my Bluetooth password in terminal?
[05:42] <Hornet> for the purposes of ndiswrapper, how does one extract wifi drivers from installation exe's without having a windows machine with the card in question to install them on?
[05:43] <sargento> Is there any way I can see my own PC Bluetooth password in terminal?
[05:43] <pixelated> Hornet, it should be able to extract from a exe the driver
[05:43] <Veratyr9> how do i force quit a program in ubuntu?  like task manager in windows.  firefox decided to stay open after i closed all the windows out
[05:43] <sargento> Veratyr9: you can use killall command in terminal
[05:43] <DasEI1> Hornet:if it's just the extraction, wine shall do it
[05:43] <radsy> kill -9 !
[05:44] <Gerinych> sophi, i think i found the packages that can help
[05:44] <Gerinych> sopgi: libgtkextra-x11-2.0-1
[05:44] <sargento> Is there any way I can see my own PC Bluetooth password in terminal?
[05:44] <DasEI1> !ndiswrapper | Hornet
[05:44] <Hornet> ah, going to be fun installing wine without internet access :\
[05:44] <Hornet> I've read the manual, thanks
[05:44] <DasEI1> Hornet: ups, catch 22
[05:44] <Veratyr9> killall eh? is this gonna be like the last answer of ctrl+alt+backspace? lol
[05:45] <prince_jammys> Veratyr9: pkill firefox, or killall firefox
[05:45] <mikeshollen> Next question, what about a video card?  I could leave it with the intel integrated graphics but I assume it'll suck with compiz and games.  I could pick up an FX5200 card for about $35 with 256MB ram, or I could get a 6200 with 512MB video ram for about $55.  There's also a 7600GT w/512MB of ram for $110.  However the motherboard only supports 4xAGP (not 8).  What do you think I should use for gaming?
[05:45] <Veratyr9> thx
[05:45] <meshuggah> hello everyone
[05:45] <DasEI1> Veratyr9: nope, it just kill all childprocesses of a parent, too
[05:45] <newmember> I am trying to write my own start/stop script.  What does this mean?  start-stop-daemon: Unable to set gid to 1001 (Operation not permitted)
[05:45] <sophi> Gerinych: it is already installed in my system.
[05:45] <sargento> Veratyr9: Nop, Ctrl+alt+backspace is for restaring graphics, killall is to close applications
[05:46] <DasEI1> newmember: did you make the script executable ?
[05:46] <sk8ball> vera
[05:46] <sk8ball> goto terminal
[05:46] <sk8ball> ps -A | grep firefox
[05:46] <sk8ball> kill -9 pid
[05:46] <pixelated> mikeshollen, do the machines have a agp slot?
[05:46] <sk8ball> pid being the pid associated with the process
[05:46] <Veratyr9> got it, thanks guys
[05:46] <radsy> kill -9 `pgrep firefox`
[05:46] <saurabhshah> or you could just open the process manager
[05:46] <radsy> lots of ways to do it :)
[05:46] <mikeshollen> pixelated: they're 4xAGP, would you like a link to the machine's stats?
[05:46] <sargento> Is there any way I can see my own PC Bluetooth password in terminal?
[05:47] <pixelated> mikeshollen, sure
[05:47] <Veratyr9> the more ways the better
[05:47] <prince_jammys> you don't have to kill -9 it, unless it refuses to die by other means
[05:47] <newmember> DasEI1: -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 1523 2009-02-10 20:19 alfresco
[05:47] <sk8ball> prince, why give it a chance
[05:47] <sk8ball> just force the kill
[05:47] <mikeshollen> Can I take this to a IM pixelated?
[05:47] <newmember> DasEI1: so the script is exec, I am going to check the program folder
[05:47] <prince_jammys> sk8ball: because you don't give firefox a chance to clean up with -9
[05:47] <pixelated> mikeshollen, sure
[05:47] <DasEI1> newmember: so only root can run it  (sudo)
[05:48] <newmember> DasEI1: I think I want it root because its in my init.d folder.   I have the applicaiton running starting under a user 1001
[05:49] <sk8ball> prince, as in garbage collection/memory clean up
[05:49] <sk8ball> or just its own bs?
[05:49] <prince_jammys> sk8ball: yes, and temp files
[05:49] <DasEI1> newmember: ok, chmod 775 tried ?
[05:49] <prince_jammys> sk8ball: stuff it would clean up if killed with less radical signals
[05:49] <houstond> ok i've searched the toshiba website and googled. i cant find out where to download my video card driver for linux
[05:50] <prince_jammys> sk8ball: kill -9 is like throwing a grenade at it ;)
[05:50] <sk8ball> doesnt the kernel end up cleaning up stray garbage at some point?
[05:50] <nick|here> i have 3 gateways on my subnet. (<IP_ADDRESS>, <IP_ADDRESS>, <IP_ADDRESS>) can i use three of them at the same time as a one connection? (merging their bandwiths in to one big pipe) ?
[05:50] <houstond> can someone point me in the right direction?
[05:51] <newmember> DasEI1: good thought, I changed the permisions on the folder the program was in and it worked
[05:51] <meshuggah> houstond : what is your videocard?
[05:51] <zloog> Anyone ever heard of Data.Data?
[05:51] <DasEI1> !yay | newmember
[05:52] <Scunizi> houstond: stop thinking that you have to be on the web to get the driver for your card.. It may already be available in ubuntu just not activated yet.. let meshuggah know what kind of card and he can probably help you.
[05:52] <erbi> d
[05:53] <newmember> DasEI1: how do I make the start script start automatically when the server starts?
[05:53] <sk8ball> prince, doesnt the kernel end up cleaning up stray garbage at some point?
[05:53] <ras2> hey guys ihave ubuntu prblem
[05:53] <DasEI1> newmember: put it in /etc/rc.local
[05:53] <sk8ball> ras, ok
[05:53] <sk8ball> atleast dont ask to ask
[05:53] <ras2> ihave problem
[05:53] <sk8ball> just fuckn ask
[05:53] <ras2> with login window
[05:54] <sk8ball> the most they can do is tell you to fuck off
[05:54] <KronicKoh> hey guys
[05:54] <sk8ball> ad give you some little !command about chan rules
[05:54] <ras2> wired letters appears in error message
[05:54] <DasEI1> newmember: or ask again here to integrate in init's runlevel, I gtg now
[05:54] <ras2> i tried
[05:54] <newmember> DasEI1: ty
[05:54] <ras2> the terminal
[05:54] <ras2> to reinstall login
[05:54] <KronicKoh> anyone heard of 64studio? running off of debian and ubuntu
[05:54]  * sk8ball smacks prince_jjammys
[05:54] <ras2> but nothing
[05:54]  * sk8ball smacks prince_jammys
[05:54] <quibbler> !enter | ras2
[05:55] <prince_jammys> sk8ball: huh?
[05:55] <sk8ball> prince, doesnt the kernel end up cleaning up stray garbage at some point?
[05:55] <kyledr> what should i install to make mplayer work better with video? i'm using opengl as an output driver but it's slow
[05:55] <ras2> ok
[05:55] <sk8ball> prince, memory wise
[05:55] <ras2> the system ccannot connect to the net itried ipup --force
[05:55] <ras2> but also not thing
[05:56] <prince_jammys> sk8ball: probably, but you rarely have to kill -9. the kernel's not going to delete temporary dirs and files, or whatever other crap the program would otherwise take care of before quitting
[05:56] <sk8ball> prince, well of course
[05:56] <ras2> how can i connect to the net through terminal to fix my problems
[05:56] <sk8ball> but firefox conviniently enough will do that for you on next execution
[05:56] <prince_jammys> sk8ball: if the program will only quit with kill -9, it's usually a crap program
[05:57] <sk8ball> prince, do you use firefox?
[05:57] <newmember> ras2: did you install the sshd server?
[05:57] <prince_jammys> sk8ball: not any more. i use opera
[05:57] <ras2> id do not know
[05:57] <ras2> but ithink yes
[05:58] <sk8ball> who has the highest acid test scroe these days
[05:58] <sk8ball> any idea prince?
[05:58] <sk8ball> score*
[05:59] <ras2> guys any body have a solution ??
[05:59] <thorsten11> exit
[05:59] <Scunizi> ras2: you want to connect to the net via terminal?  sudo apt-get install elinks..  then type elinks to load.. g to enter a web address and enter.

[06:02] <ice_cream> !deb > ice_cream
[06:02] <yossarian> any ideas, anyone?
[06:02] <syockit> poor ice_crean
[06:02] <prince_jammys> izzle: if you're used to debian, same idea. any front-end to dpkg (apt-get, aptitude, synaptic...)
[06:02] <anij> anyone done linux from scratch?
[06:02] <izzle> word
[06:02] <prince_jammys> or dpkg itself, if that's your thing
[06:02] <ice_cream> the whole apt system is referred to as 'deb'  ?
[06:02] <arghh2d2> anij: no but i've thought about it
[06:03] <sophi> how to install lgtk-x11-2?
[06:03] <prince_jammys> ice_cream: i refer to it as 'apt'
[06:03] <ice_cream> yea, me too...what is this debiness
[06:03] <prince_jammys> Debby Anne
[06:04] <anij> i was going to try LFS inside a virtual machine, anyone done it before?
[06:04] <yossarian> why can't i start wine-doors :(
[06:04] <gladio70> #ubuntu-it
[06:05] <anij> i was going to try LFS inside a virtual machine, anyone done it before?
[06:06] <yossarian> does anyone here think using 64 bit ubuntu is worth the headache?
[06:07] <Scunizi> no
[06:07] <anij> no
[06:07] <thevoox> can someone help me compile the latest intel driver? I'm getting some errors when trying to ./configure
[06:07] <yossarian> :\
[06:08] <anij> ok guess no one here has LFS'd in a virtual environement
[06:08] <anij> better go try and put up a tutorial

[06:08] <GodfatherofEire> Any ideas why Ubuntu is loading an OD document differently on Ubuntu than in Windows? Like, different margins, etc?
[06:09] <Scunizi> GodfatherofEire: 3.0 version on win and 2.xx version on ubuntu?
[06:09] <GodfatherofEire> Yup
[06:09] <GodfatherofEire> I presume that was a bad Idea>
[06:09] <GodfatherofEire> *?
[06:09] <Scunizi> there's your andser
[06:10] <GodfatherofEire> Looks like I'll just have to get the printer working on Windows then
[06:10] <Geboy> anybody know what can i use to configure squid remotely like webmin does?
[06:11] <MeVsTheVoices> What is the command for document viewer?
[06:11] <Scunizi> MeVsTheVoices: evince
[06:11] <MeVsTheVoices> Scunizi: Thank you!
[06:12] <palomer> what's the latest ubuntu called?
[06:12] <Scunizi> new
[06:12] <MeVsTheVoices> Intrebid Ibex
[06:12] <Fractured> does using Unetbootin allow you to save changes while using the OS and have them saved to the USB stick?
[06:13] <palomer> cool
[06:13] <tonyyarusso> Fractured: yes
[06:13] <Fractured> awwsome, thanks tonyyarusso
[06:17] <yossarian> damn damn damn
[06:17] <KronicKoh> QUESTION:::: What other flavors of LINUX should i DOWNLOAD
[06:17] <yossarian> i get this error in the terminal when running wine-doors after the program seemingly starts:
[06:17] <XDS2010> KronicKoh:  Depends on your hardware.
[06:17] <KronicKoh> Ive got kubuntu 8.10, unbunto studio 8.10, 65studio
[06:17] <KronicKoh> YDL 6.1
[06:17] <KronicKoh> for my PS3
[06:17] <yossarian> typeError: can't concatenate str and nonetype objects
[06:17] <yossarian> what does this mean?
[06:17] <KronicKoh> p4 3ghz, potential 4gb ram
[06:18] <XDS2010> KronicKoh:  I've been playing with Mythdora I like it
[06:18] <quibbler> KronicKoh: http://distrowatch.com/
[06:18] <KronicKoh> mind PM'ing me?
[06:18] <XDS2010> SLAX is always good too KronicKoh
[06:18] <prince_jammys> yossarian: it's a python error.
[06:18] <XDS2010> yeah check out the distro site
[06:18] <yossarian> prince_jammys: what can i do?
[06:18] <KronicKoh> I've finally got to the point where I can use LINUX as an OS
[06:18] <KronicKoh> but now I'm going to mainly focus on how to properly record audio in linux
[06:18] <KronicKoh> w00000t
[06:18] <KronicKoh> =D
[06:18] <prince_jammys> yossarian: most likely some error in the code of the prog, or maybe you're invoking it with wrong params
[06:19] <yossarian> prince_jammys:  are you familiar with wine-doors?
[06:19] <prince_jammys> yossarian: not at all
[06:19] <KronicKoh> thank you for distrowatch... mui gracias
[06:19] <KronicKoh> =D
[06:19] <prince_jammys> yossarian: i'd first try google: 'ubuntu wine-doors "typeError: can't concatenate"' and see if someone else stumbled into this
[06:19] <KronicKoh> iWreck.net
[06:19] <XDS2010> KronicKoh:  babene
[06:20] <XDS2010> ;)
[06:20] <quibbler> KronicKoh: nada
[06:20] <KronicKoh> nada? haha
[06:20] <KronicKoh> nothing, you r nada?
[06:20] <KronicKoh> *no problemo
[06:20] <KronicKoh> just blame the ho
[06:20] <KronicKoh> =D
[06:20] <yossarian> prince_jammys: i've tried. maybe it's just me but i haven't found anything relevant :(
[06:21] <JPSman> so, i am an idiot, I just looked at my system startup setting and saw that i have EM64T capable processor.  How can I test this?  do I have to download another version of Ubuntu 64-bit and run a live CD?
[06:24] <qike006> 请问一下使用XUbuntu的朋友，怎样使后来新建的的用户与安装时建的用户功能相同？
[06:25] <quibbler> !cn
[06:25] <JPSman> what benefits do 64bit have to offer?
[06:26] <Flannel> JPSman: for 'regular people'?  More address space for RAM
[06:27] <JPSman> Flannel - yeah, I suppose I am a regular person.  What does it offer for processing speed?
[06:28] <simone> hey
[06:28] <patmanpato> hi
[06:28] <simone> i'm trying out intrepid
[06:28] <bullgard4> Synaptic: "The scripts in the DEB program package 'initscripts' initialize a standard #debian GNU/Linux system at boot time and finalize it at halt or reboot time." How is halt time defined?
[06:28] <Flannel> JPSman: No (well, not directly), but with the wider datawidth, you can do larger computations faster, and also the architecture itself has a number of improvements, lack of register starvation, etc.  But for the stuff most people do, the biggest benefit is that you have have more RAM (more than 3.2ish GB)
[06:28] <simone> glad they solved smb and geforce4 problems
[06:28] <patmanpato> i have an external ext3 hard drive, and i was wondering what the easiest way to mount it is, so that regular users can have write access to it, any one have any ideas?
[06:28] <simone> but i notice it's quite cpu consuming!!
[06:29] <JPSman> Flannel - right now I have 2 gigs, so your saying that it would increase the ram and address registration because it has a "wider" path than 32 bit?
[06:31] <ice_cream> Flannel, 32bit os is limited to only 3.2 ? thought it could handle closer to 4
[06:32] <JPSman> yeah, I decided against it, I dont know what programs i would be running that can use 64 bit anyhow
[06:32] <sophi> hi icecream
[06:32] <sophi> hi ice_cream
[06:32] <JPSman> night yall
[06:32] <ice_cream> hi
[06:32] <sophi> :-)
[06:32] <koshari> JPSman you can move a 64bit word on a 64 bit machine in one execution
[06:33] <aaditya> if i change a user's default shell to something like /bin/false, will it prevent the user from logging into Gnome via GDM?
[06:34] <chalcedony> what to do about resetting one of my two monitor's settings if System -> Preferences -> Screen Resolution is not detecting my settings this time?
[06:34] <fallore> i just installed ubuntu 8.10 and i'm getting a "GRUB Loading stage1.5Read Error" message after i boot
[06:34] <aaditya> chalcedony: xrandr --auto
[06:34] <aaditya> or just 'xrandr'
[06:34] <aaditya> or 'man xrandr for more details'
[06:34] <chalcedony> aaditya: i'll try that
[06:34] <aaditya> 'man xrandr'
[06:34] <aaditya> lol
[06:35] <aaditya> rest wasn't meant to be a part of quotes
[06:35] <aaditya> good luck
[06:35] <simone> sorry

[06:36] <zer0o> hi guys im about to buy an external hard drive, is there any known issue? shall i buy a particular one instead of another? thanks
[06:36] <aaditya> Sylphid: how did you know that he was speaking russian?
[06:36] <Failrar> zer0o, nope
[06:36] <siva> hi
[06:36] <ice_cream> aaditya, was obvious
[06:36] <bullgard4> patmanpato: The easiest way is to use the applet 'Disk Mounter'
[06:36] <hemanth> can i setup a web server with dhcp ?
[06:36] <siva> anyone help me about the evolution of virus
[06:36] <zer0o> Failrar: u mean there arent known issue and i can buy whatever?
[06:36] <Sylphid> aaditya, just looked like russian
[06:37] <Failrar> no know issues
[06:37] <aaditya> Sylphid: nice guess
[06:37] <Failrar> as long as it's usb mass storage
[06:37] <aaditya> wasn't quite obvious to me
[06:37] <aaditya> could have guessed though
[06:37] <Sylphid> aaditya, babblefish helps though
[06:38] <Vekser_sec_choic> how dO i save state in KDKE4?
[06:38] <amerinese> hi what is the protocol/service i would use to share a folder over the internet with a username/password?  (not just visible on my local network)
[06:39] <sophi> anyone help me i am getting error: gdk/gdkkeysyms.h: No such file or directory
[06:39] <aaditya> amerinese: if it's for personal use, consider using sftp (ssh)
[06:39] <amerinese> i'd like windows users to be able to look at it like a regular folder, not something that requires a different method of interaction like ftp
[06:40] <sophi> If anyone could shed some light on this I would be very grateful
[06:40] <aaditya> amerinese: there are free tools available that make sftp look like windows drives
[06:40] <aaditya> If i change a user's default shell to something like /bin/false, will it prevent the user from logging into Gnome via GDM?
[06:41] <amerinese> aaditya: is samba something used for situations like this?
[06:41] <amerinese> or is that a local thing?
[06:41] <amerinese> aaditya: that sounds workable, but not as ideal as it does require an extra step for each user to install something
[06:41] <amerinese> but i appreciate the suggestion
[06:42] <aaditya> amerinese: if you're trying to share it on a LAN, then go for samba. i'm not sure if samba is safe enough to be exposed on the internet
[06:42] <silv3r_m001> hi there
[06:42] <aaditya> SFTP is encrypted btw
[06:42] <fallore> i just installed ubuntu 8.10 and i'm getting a "GRUB Loading stage1.5Read Error" message after i boot. anyone know what's going on? it's installed on a compact flash disk with an IDE adaptor
[06:42] <silv3r_m001> for the past few days I see that sometime the hard disk suddenly starts working vigorously and the computer becomes almost hanged ... why ?
[06:43] <aaditya> !grub fallore
[06:43] <aaditya> :s
[06:43] <aaditya> !grub
[06:43] <silv3r_m001> is it related to some kind of file indexing running in the background
[06:43] <amerinese> aaditya: ok, will look into it, thanks
[06:43] <aaditya> you're welcome
[06:43] <Until_It_Sleeps> !getting laid.
[06:44] <srid> does anyone know how to move cursor from one monitor to the second monitor? using some keyboard shortcut? it is painful to use the mouse/trackpoint for the delay involved.
[06:44] <Until_It_Sleeps> :P Sorry, I just had to do that.
[06:44] <sexcopter> hi, i'm downloading a couple of videos, and while they arrive, gnome-video-thumnailer is having a hernia. Is there a way to tell it to ignore these videos for now?
[06:44] <sophi> If anyone could shed some light on this I would be very grateful
[06:45] <MeVsTheVoices> Until_It_Sleeps: Careful, the almighty Flannel might catch you away!
[06:45] <Until_It_Sleeps> heh
[06:45] <fallore> aaditya: didn't see anything in there regarding my situation :/
[06:47] <bullgard4> Synaptic: "The scripts in the DEB program package 'initscripts' initialize a standard #debian GNU/Linux system at boot time and finalize it at halt or reboot time." How is halt time defined?
[06:47] <aaditya> fallore: did linux ever run on your machine successfully before?
[06:47] <yossarian> what do you people make of win 7?
[06:47] <fallore> aaditya: no, it's a freshly built computer on a fresh compact flash disk. installed 8.10 from a mini iso or something
[06:48] <chalcedony> yossarian: 42
[06:48] <chalcedony> or 22 ..
[06:49] <sophi> anyone help me i am getting error: gdk/gdkkeysyms.h: No such file or directory
[06:49] <yossarian> chalcedony:  haha. 42? the meaning of life? :)
[06:49] <yossarian> and everything
[06:50] <MeVsTheVoices> yossarian: The meaning of life, the UNIVERSE, and everything
[06:50] <aaditya> fallore: maybe try other related channels like ##linux
[06:50] <Until_It_Sleeps> !bots
[06:50] <chalcedony> yossarian: everyone i've heard talking about windows7 is that it's just like chicken.. or vista
[06:50] <Until_It_Sleeps> !botchannel
[06:50] <aaditya> !botabuse > Until_It_Sleeps
[06:51] <Until_It_Sleeps> :D Thanks aaditya.
[06:51] <yossarian> i've tried win7, thought it was just as useless as vista
[06:51] <rakudave> !ot
[06:51] <yossarian> what the heck do the visuals matter if the operating system is unusable? :(
[06:52] <aaditya> !ot > yossarian

[06:53] <boscoslife> if i run ubuntu and have installed bastille for my server is there anything else i need to do to make it more secure and is bastile a good filewall program
[06:53] <KyleK> hey whats the fancy network monitor thing called?
[06:53] <chalcedony> aaditya: is there a way to get System -> Preferences -> Screen Resolution to work again? i used it for the other monitor.. but now i want to change the settings on the main one.
[06:54] <aaditya> chalcedony: not sure, i'm used to the command line
[06:54] <KyleK> cacti, got it
[06:54] <chalcedony> boscoslife: you're running linux. it's more secure than windows will ever be
[06:54] <scr0oples> anyone running ubuntu on a macbook pro?
[06:54] <aaditya> chalcedony: paste your 'xrandr' output and we can go from there
[06:54] <MeVsTheVoices> chalcedony: Might not be one day, who knows
[06:55] <chalcedony> aaditya: wow! i prefer command line for most things.. i just felt overwhelmed . sure
[06:55] <boscoslife> chalcedony: i under stand all of that i have run linux for about 4 years now
[06:55] <boscoslife> i love it
[06:55] <shinygiftson> hi all
[06:55] <aaditya> chalcedony, no problem. there is a learning curve that we all climb some day.
[06:55] <boscoslife> chalcedony: whta about the linux guru who wants to hack in though
[06:55] <scr0oples> macbook pro- ubuntu? anyone?
[06:55] <shinygiftson> i'm using ubuntu 7.10
[06:56] <bullgard4> Synaptic: "The scripts in the DEB program package 'initscripts' initialize a standard #debian GNU/Linux system at boot time and finalize it at halt or reboot time." How is halt time defined?
[06:56] <shinygiftson> we have any audio facility browser

[06:56] <shinygiftson> something like jaws in windows?
[06:56] <aaditya> chalcedony: is that it?
[06:57] <MeVsTheVoices> shinygiftson: A what?
[06:57] <chalcedony> aaditya: that's what i got, minus the prompts (shorter paste)
[06:57] <aaditya> !pb > chalcedony

[06:58] <bostko> hi guys
[06:58] <aaditya> !ask | shinygiftson
[06:58] <exgllo> Hey I'm having some trouble with AR242x 802.11 Wireless PCI Express Adapter can't get any wireless networks to populate
[06:58] <bostko> ii can't speak english very well so i will ask you for a little help
[06:58] <shinygiftson> ok, ubottu
[06:58] <exgllo> !ask repairing AR242x 802.11 Wireless PCI Express Adapter
[06:58] <exgllo> using either ath5k or ath_pci advice needed!
[06:58] <scr0oples> im having some trouble booting ubuntu on my mac anyone?
[06:59] <bostko> is this right
[06:59] <MeVsTheVoices> shinygiftson: We have Orca as a screen reader, but jaws does more than that right?
[06:59] <bostko> professional care for your personal computer
[06:59] <bostko> ?
[06:59] <shinygiftson> MeVsTheVoices, ok
[06:59] <shinygiftson> let me try to install orca
[06:59] <hemanth> anyone here , who has tried setting up a webserver with dhcp ?
[07:00] <MeVsTheVoices> shinygiftson: Should be by default, for 8.10 atleast
[07:00] <shinygiftson> ok
[07:00] <shinygiftson> MeVsTheVoices, thx :)
[07:00] <bostko> can i use any other word instead care
[07:00] <exgllo> So anyone have advice for using wireless in ubuntu? Other than, Don't?
[07:01] <kerm|t> exgllo: it works for me
[07:01] <MeVsTheVoices> shinygiftson: No prob, theres something called perl box to help automate things, little funky alpha at the moment though, might wanna pass on that for a spell
[07:01] <syockit> exgllo: use it as usual
[07:01] <Until_It_Sleeps> Anyone here know what the command to defragment a Ubuntu volume is?
[07:01] <shinygiftson> MeVsTheVoices, ok. Thx
[07:01] <shinygiftson> :)
[07:01] <kerm|t> Until_It_Sleeps: its automatic
[07:01] <MeVsTheVoices> shinygiftson: http://perlbox.sourceforge.net/ if you wanna check it anyway
[07:01] <MeVsTheVoices> shinygiftson: No prob
[07:02] <Until_It_Sleeps> kerm|t: Erm, it is!?
[07:02] <scr0oples> macbook pro- ubuntu? anyone?
[07:02] <syockit> Until_It_Sleeps: usually it's fsck thing, but should be run at boot
[07:02] <kerm|t> Until_It_Sleeps: the FS doesnt create fragments much so theres nothing to defrag
[07:02] <MeVsTheVoices> scr0oples: It is possible, I know ppl who have, they're not about though
[07:02] <shinygiftson> MeVsTheVoices, ok
[07:02] <aaditya> Until_It_Sleeps: http://geekblog.oneandoneis2.org/index.php/2006/08/17/why_doesn_t_linux_need_defragmenting
[07:02] <exgllo> my problem I'm having with just "using the wifi" is I can't seem to get this AR242x 802.11 Wireless PCI Express Adapter
[07:02] <exgllo> to actually detect a wifi network
[07:02] <Until_It_Sleeps> oh... That is the coolest thing I have ever heard.
[07:02] <exgllo> although according to ubuntu this driver is activated and c urrently in use
[07:02] <KronicKoh> from debian, how do i get kde?
[07:02] <KronicKoh> whats the command?
[07:03] <syockit> Until_It_Sleeps: see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext3#Defragmentation
[07:03] <chalcedony> aaditya: http://paste.ubuntu.com/116715/
[07:03] <MeVsTheVoices> KronicKoh: sudo apt-get install kde?
[07:04] <bullgard4> Synaptic: "The scripts in the DEB program package 'initscripts' initialize a standard #debian GNU/Linux system at boot time and finalize it at halt or reboot time." How is halt time defined?
[07:04] <aaditya> chalcedony: the other one is apparently not connected properly, or not being recognized by the OS
[07:04] <MeVsTheVoices> bullgard4: Halt is a shutdown, it comes off the shutdown command
[07:04] <boscoslife> chalcedony: whta about the linux guru who wants to hack in though
[07:05] <Until_It_Sleeps> kthnxbai.
[07:06] <chalcedony> aaditya: i think i messed up the backup by changing the name of it, is there a way to list directory names?
[07:06] <MeVsTheVoices> chalcedony: As in all the directories in something
[07:06] <chalcedony> boscoslife: if he's a top of the line ubuntu tech maybe.
[07:07] <chalcedony> MeVsTheVoices: as in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak i remember i added a date to it, but not what it was
[07:07] <exgllo> hey so when i do a sudo lshw -c network and it comes back telling me *-network DISABLED how to i enable that?
[07:07] <exgllo> Physical wireless co nfiguration: broadcast=yes driver=ath5k latency=0 module=ath5k multicast=yes wireless=IEE 802.11bg *-network disabled
[07:08] <MeVsTheVoices> chalcedony: `man find` look up -mtime
[07:08] <prince_jammys> yossarian: sorry, got disconnected
[07:09] <anders_home> morrn morrn
[07:10] <bullgard4> MeVsTheVoices: Please tell me what do you mean by "to come off". (My native language is not English.)
[07:11] <Canaen> I'm trying to come up with a solution for running Photoshop on Ubuntu. I've heard that under WINE, CS2 works pretty well, and CS3 and CS4 are coming up. Crossover Linux (codeweavers) says they run it perfect. Is there that much of a difference? Does anyone run Photoshop (any version)? I'm on Ubuntu 8.10, intrepid ibex.
[07:11] <MeVsTheVoices> bullgard4: Halt is part of shutdown
[07:11] <fallore_> i installed ubuntu 8.10 onto a compact flash disk using an IDE adaptor. it's getting the error "GRUB Stage1.5Reading Error" when I boot. I took out the card and have put it into a different computer (this one, running ubuntu 8.10) and have the ability to look at its insides. is there anything i can look at to see what the problem is?
[07:12] <letalis> Canaen: have you tried the gimp for your graphic editing needs?
[07:12] <MeVsTheVoices> Canaen: The only Platinum (worthwile) CS of Photoshop is CS1, its the only guaranteed work with WINE, use gimp...
[07:12] <letalis> it does most of what photoshop does and does it without the need to emulate it
[07:12] <MeVsTheVoices> And its awesomer
[07:13] <letalis> you can even save to psd if you need to
[07:13] <letalis> :)
[07:13] <bullgard4> MeVsTheVoices: Shutdown is a rather long and complicated process. What part of it is halt in it?
[07:14] <Canaen> My problem with GIMP is that it doesn't seem to do what I need it to do. I mean, I know how to do the things I want in photoshop, and not in GIMP
[07:14] <Canaen> The tools just aren't as precise
[07:14] <Canaen> or clean
[07:15] <MeVsTheVoices> bullgard4: Halt is the very last thing called by shutdown (usually) if it is specified that it should be called (-h or -H) else poweroff will be called, shutting off the computer
[07:15] <dragon_> Canaen: make a suggestion here and it might be considered soon - http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/
[07:16] <MeVsTheVoices> Whens next version due out?
[07:17] <bullgard4> MeVsTheVoices: Ah! Thank you very much for explaining.
[07:17] <rww> MeVsTheVoices: of Ubuntu? April.
[07:17] <MeVsTheVoices> bullgard4: No prob!
[07:17] <MeVsTheVoices> rww: Damn, not too shabby
[07:17] <Canaen> dragon: thanks for the link!
[07:17] <dragon_> Canaen: you're welcome
[07:17] <Canaen> MeVsTheVoices: Why do you say CS1 is the only worthwhile under WINE?
[07:18] <MeVsTheVoices> Canaen: Its the only one that won't frustrate the hell out of you, it works perfectly out of the box is what I'm saying, all the others have serious compatability issues
[07:19] <bsusa> hello all
[07:19] <MeVsTheVoices> HERRO PREEZ!
[07:19] <bsusa> is their a program out there for Ubuntu that Joins FLV video files?
[07:20] <Canaen> MeVsTheVoices: Thanks! The WINE website really talks up its compatibility with newer photoshops. It's nice to get another opinion
[07:20] <chalcedony> MeVsTheVoices: my son is really good with linux, but he moved to texas. i got this new used monitor and i'm trying to get it to where i can see it better.
[07:20] <MeVsTheVoices> Canaen: :-)
[07:21] <MeVsTheVoices> chalcedony: College?
[07:21] <Slart> bsusa: mencoder might do it
[07:21] <chalcedony> MeVsTheVoices: he got a really good job
[07:22] <MeVsTheVoices> chalcedony: Ahh ok, cool
[07:22] <chalcedony> working lots and lots of hours
[07:22] <exgllo> So is the next Ubuntu release supposed to have an upgrade for wifi so it can work?
[07:22] <chalcedony> exgllo: wifi does work, it just takes tweaking
[07:23] <rww> exgllo: I imagine that would depend on what type of Wifi card you have.
[07:23] <exgllo> Not from the sources I'm talking to so far everyones agreeing that Ubuntu's wifi sucks
[07:23] <exgllo> and I've been tweaking on it for 4 hours
[07:24] <Vadonon> how do i shot web?
[07:25] <chalcedony> Ubuntu``: then youll be glad to know that our laptop works fine on it
[07:26] <Jaan|Perfect> where i can find termianl
[07:26] <Jaan|Perfect> terminal
[07:26] <jords> I'm trying to set some keycodes for my keyboard, but setkeycodes seems to end up with a different key than what I set: eg sudo setkeycodes e017 225, then when I use xev it says keycode 233 for that same key
[07:26] <ActionParsnip> !terminal
[07:26] <jords> What could be going on?
[07:26] <MeVsTheVoices> Or you can get tilda, and never be more than a button press away
[07:27] <atom^x> UbuntuWifiFails,  mine works fine... always has
[07:28] <Digital8> MeVsTheVoices: can you input ` or ~ into tilda?
[07:28] <djnel> First time user of Linux, got fedup with windows and installed Ubuntu. Loving it so far. Cant get files unrared, I've downloaded the update, I can view the contents of the rar, it extract successfully it says and there is nothing on the destination :/
[07:28] <Jaan|Perfect> That is pretty straight-forward
[07:28] <boscoslife> if i remove sudo on my server is that a bad thing
[07:28] <MeVsTheVoices> Digital: Sure thing, its just a terminal, but it hides away
[07:28] <MeVsTheVoices> boscoslife: Remove sudo?
[07:29] <Digital8> djnel: have you tried other rars?
[07:29] <boscoslife> yes i login via root anyways and none of my users need sudo
[07:29] <Digital8> MeVsTheVoices: how can you input ` or ~ if it drops down with that same key?
[07:29] <rww> boscoslife: It's incredibly unsupported, but possible.
[07:29] <kyledr> djnel: in terminal cd to the file and do unrar e <filename>
[07:29] <djnel> I probably should... one sec I'll check...
[07:29] <MeVsTheVoices> boscoslife: First of, you should never be logging in as root, you'll give me the night sweats
[07:30] <coolguy891> ubuntu.comn

[07:30] <UbuntuWifiFails> lol simple fact the reason ubuntu fails to sell is because it takes 6 hours for a freaking wifi driver
[07:30] <coolguy891> fedora is better than ubuntu

[07:45] <Canaen> MeVsTheVoices: It's based on Cube. You can get it from the repositories
[07:45] <Roby> ok, thanks :D
[07:46] <rww> Roby: No problem. By the way, if you're using xchat-gnome, you may want to check out the xchat package. Many people prefer it :)

[08:01] <MeVsTheVoices> chalcedony: Hi?
[08:01] <kronicKoH> i went from kubuntu, to ubuntu studio
[08:01] <kronicKoH> then got a lot of info
[08:01] <kronicKoH> as in, dont run Ardour in ubuntu 8.10 because its not real-time
[08:01] <kronicKoH> so go for 8.05
[08:01] <kronicKoH> *4
[08:02] <kronicKoH> although i was encouraged to try 64studio
[08:02] <kronicKoH> which i like, its nice, because its simplistic.
[08:02] <kronicKoH> although i was advised to run 2,1
[08:02] <kronicKoH> although id like to run 3.0 on it as well
[08:02] <kronicKoH> only 40gb hd
[08:02] <kronicKoH> ;-)
[08:02] <kronicKoH> but long story shorter then usual....
[08:02] <Digital8> UbuntuWifiFails: hows it coming along?
[08:03] <mDemocritus> i think i've got a strange one for you guys... i compiled vsftpd 2.0.7 with ssl support for interoperability with Filezilla, and all went well. I copied the binary to /usr/sbin, when i run it i get errors telling me ssl support is not compiled in.... but if i run the binary from the build directory, it works fine... what the heck am i missing?
[08:04] <mDemocritus> it's getting copied over correctly... md5sum on /usr/sbin/vsftpd and the one in the build directory are the same
[08:04] <UbuntuWifiFails> oh just installing wicd now

[08:12] <boogywoogy> how the funk do i disable these fading windows?
[08:13] <Digital8> UbuntuWifiFails: how about just installing it from deb?
[08:13] <Flannel> boogywoogy: the easiest way is to just turn off the affects (set them to none or whatever) under appearances
[08:13] <amikrop> DrRabbit: OK, it worked. Thank you. :-)
[08:13] <Flannel> boogywoogy: effects, even.
[08:13] <UbuntuWifiFails> k sec
[08:13] <DrRabbit> amikrop: no prob
[08:14] <Flannel> boogywoogy: If you just want to tweak that particular behavior, install compizconfig-settings-manager, and you will get fine grained control over the behavior of compiz

[08:20] <mattycoze> is there a gui frontend for octave?
[08:21] <robbe-> looks like matlab?
[08:21] <UbuntuWifiFails> The NetworkManager applet could not find some required resources. It cannot continue
[08:21] <mattycoze> robbe it is similar. actually is matlab available for linux?
[08:21] <Digital8> UbuntuWifiFails: you installed from deb?
[08:22] <mattycoze> i read somewhere that it was... but it's proprietary software right?
[08:22] <UbuntuWifiFails> yes
[08:22] <Daft_Punk-edIT> QUESTION: can tint2 have a feature or plugin installed so that it can display the main menu and a tray for icons?
[08:22] <robbe-> mattycoze: I think it is available, and yes it is proprietary as far as i know
[08:22] <robbe-> don't know of any front-end for octave tho :)
[08:22] <UbuntuWifiFails> let me reboot again
[08:22] <mattycoze> robbe grr... i see; oh well i might have better luck running a windows SPSS through wine
[08:23] <robbe-> *rrrr* spss :p
[08:23] <mattycoze> *rrrrr*?
[08:23] <rakudave> mattycoze: depending on what you intend to do, there is better frss software available, check out GeoGebra for instance
[08:23] <rakudave> *free
[08:23] <robbe-> as in a cat that purrs
[08:24] <Digital8> UbuntuWifiFails: the networkmanager shouldn't even really be a factor here, unless i'm mistaken
[08:24] <mattycoze> rakudave & robbe, well actually i'm trying to practice multivariate analysis, logistic regression, MANOVA and MANCOVA
[08:24] <Digital8> UbuntuWifiFails: the goal of installing wicd is to replace it
[08:25] <mattycoze> i'm doing advanced stats courses at the moment and I'm expected to learn how to analyse some practice data sets they've given me bah.
[08:26] <rakudave> mattycoze: ok, then octave is you best bet. perhaps wxMaxima can handle it (GUI), it is similat to Mathematica (Wolfram research)
[08:26] <UbuntuWifiFails> yea
[08:26] <UbuntuWifiFails> wicd managers up
[08:26] <Digital8> UbuntuWifiFails: alright, did it see any networks right off the bat?
[08:26] <mattycoze> so octave has a GUI?
[08:27] <mattycoze> (@ rakudave)
[08:27] <UbuntuWifiFails> nope
[08:28] <somaunn> hello
[08:28] <rakudave> mattycoze: no, octave itself doesn't, but there are projects such as YetAnotherOctaveGui, see yaog.sourceforge.net
[08:28] <mattycoze> oh i see
[08:28] <mattycoze> cool!

[08:32] <UbuntuWifiFails> no
[08:32] <UbuntuWifiFails> wlan0 IEEE 802.11bg ESSID: ""
[08:33] <Daft_Punk-edIT> QUESTION: can tint2 have a feature or plugin installed so that it can display the main menu and a tray for icons?
[08:33] <Digital8> UbuntuWifiFails: i'm trying to think back on when i set that up
[08:33] <rakudave> kosnick: press esc during boot, select old kernel in grub
[08:34] <kosnick> rakudave : in grub (expect than the fact that i haven;t used esc as you propose) i don't have any other kernel to use (menu list contains only the newest kernel)
[08:34] <UbuntuWifiFails> lol me too i've done this before and it's not just ubuntu but all os's piss me off with their lack of network compatibility out of the box
[08:35] <UbuntuWifiFails> i mean what would it cost to put every nic card drive ever made on a disk, 30, 40 cents?
[08:35] <rakudave> kosnick: ok then you might try to uninstall 2.6.27. this should regenerate the grub menu inserting the old kernel.
[08:35] <Daft_Punk-edIT> UbuntuWifiFails, it's not only that, but what about compatability with the other OS's, most drivers are just for windows, not to mention the legal issues that could arise out of that
[08:35] <Digital8> UbuntuWifiFails: there was a catch to this that i'm trying to remember
[08:35] <kosnick> rakudave : "should"???
[08:36] <gordonjcp> UbuntuWifiFails: that would be "Linux"
[08:37] <rakudave> kosnick: i suppose... i always keep up to 3 kernels in my grub in case the new kernel messes things up, so i've never tried this myself ^^
[08:37] <syockit> l me too i've done this before and it's not just ubuntu but all os's piss me off with their lack of network compatibility out of the box
[08:37] <kosnick> rakudave : all right, thank you for your time
[08:38] <syockit> huh? I said something?
[08:38] <Digital8> UbuntuWifiFails: do you have PMs enabled?
[08:39] <Gh0st78> I can't seem to change my monitor resolution back to what it was prior to installation of compizConfig settings manager...love Compiz but I liked the old monitor resolution...any help most appreciated
[08:40] <mattycoze> Digital8 hey i've got the qtoctave gui installed but it seems to freeze; when i run it fromt he terminal i get this error; Error: /home/mattycoze/.qtoctave/menus not found
[08:40] <Cody1> Can anyone tell me how to make a change permanent. The change was to eth0 so i could connect to xbox live.
[08:44] <gordonjcp> Dear #ubuntum

,,,tell me what's your problem
[08:45] <hemanth> mak_,the problem is ...
[08:45] <Flannel> gordonjcp: Again, this is not the proper place for it.  Nor will whatever sort of announcement you're making have an lasting effect.  #ubuntu-offtopic, or #ubuntu-ops if you so desire.
[08:45] <hemanth> mak_, i m setting up an website on a machine with dhcp ip
[08:46] <hemanth> mak_, i have opened the port 8180 , 8080
[08:46] <Digital8> mattycoze: i'd say try and trace that file down in source or something if you have to..or otherwise catch someone here more familiar with building from source, or just keep asking around here
[08:46] <hemanth> mak_, it works only from localhost
[08:46] <Digital8> mattycoze: i could look into it but i'm already nearly 3 hours late for bed
[08:46] <hemanth> mak_,but if i give myip:8080 it wont
[08:46] <Digital8> mattycoze: keep asking here..or catch me here tomorrow
[08:46] <hemanth> mak_, what do i do , so tht i can use my ip from anywhere
[08:47] <Zarel_> "Zarel_"? You mean there's already someone named "Zarel" on this network? o_O
,,,okay,,,, check is it the reserved port for some application
[08:47] <mak_> ?
[08:47] <jiikilo> ubunu 8.10 I have a strange problem left alt and right alt keys seem to be activating automatically everyone 30seconds they alternate to which one is pressing. Can someone suggest something I can try to find out what is causing this.
[08:47] <Zarel_> Or maybe X-Chat is being buggy.
[08:48] <hemanth> mak_, any port is fine
[08:48] <souldure> hello all
[08:48] <mak_> do you own your own LAN ?
[08:48] <ko1> ?
[08:49] <hemanth> mak_, no i wont external acess to my machine
[08:49] <meshuggah> jiikilo : i think your computer is possessed...
[08:49] <hemanth> mak_, hopefully through tomcat
[08:49] <ko1> ?
[08:49] <ko1> wonderful
[08:50] <hemanth> mak_, i m using java
[08:50] <ko1> live cd is messing with utf-8
[08:50] <souldure> i have a simple question if you guys would be so kind how do i dynamicaly link my music folder on my root drive to my secondary hard drive so that remastersys wont try to burn it all when i back up my system to iso?
[08:50] <jeancalvin> does vlc allow control of playback speed, at least for audio files?
[08:50] <jiikilo> meshuggah: how does one get rid of a ghost O_o... Its not the keyboard I took it out completely and left/right alt are still activating >_<
[08:50] <mak_> and you wan't external access to your Linux Box ?
[08:50] <Firio> I really need help now.. Where do i download the driver(s) for my wireless network router?
[08:51] <meshuggah> jiikilo : lol :)
[08:51] <rww> Zarel_: Yes, there is. The nickname is also registered.
[08:51] <Firio> For ubuntu
[08:51] <hemanth> mak_, yes
[08:51] <pandora--> is it a common problem with 8.10 to lose audio playback with: "Opening /dev/dvb/adapter0/audio0 DVB AUDIO DEVICE: No such file or directory" ?
[08:51] <hemanth> mak_, through IP
[08:51] <pandora--> upgraded 2 different machines from 8.04 to 8.10 and they both have this probelm
[08:51] <crdlb> Firio: do you mean a wireless card?
[08:51] <crdlb> you definitely don't need drivers to use a router
[08:52] <Firio> I can't get connected using the wireless connection
[08:52] <hemanth> mak_, not samba or something similar , i just want it through the browser
[08:52] <pandora--> audio works for a while, then craps until reboot
[08:52] <crdlb> Firio: do you know what chipset it's using?
[08:52] <mandrig> hemanth: have you installed an ftp server?
[08:52] <Firio> I can use wireless on Windows Vista the second os i have,but not on ubuntu
[08:52] <meshuggah> jiikilo : i would like to help you but i am a newbie
[08:52] <mak_> which version of browers you are usng right now ,,,, firefox or Netscape ?
[08:52] <hemanth> mandrig, sftp
[08:52] <Firio> Chipset? no
[08:52] <hemanth> mak_,firefox
[08:53] <ko1> is it possible to fsck logical volumes (ie a broken raid 1 array)
[08:53] <mandrig> hemanth: Okay, cause I use ftpd and a dyndns service so I have access to my computer anywhere on my campus.
[08:53] <crdlb> Firio: open a terminal and run 'lspci | grep -i ethernet'
[08:53] <crdlb> and look for the entry that says 802.11
[08:53] <hemanth> mandrig, any links on howto ?
[08:54] <Firio> And then?
[08:54] <hemanth> mandrig, is it possible to setup a webserver on a dynamic ip
[08:54] <mak_> try out with Ephiphany web browser
[08:54] <mandrig> hemanth: Its pretty self explanatory, http://dyndns.org
[08:54] <crdlb> Firio: then tell us what it says :) (just the one line)
[08:54] <hemanth> mak_, i m able to use localhost : 8080
[08:54] <Firio> i'll try
[08:54] <hemanth> mak_,but not <my_ip> : 8080
[08:55] <hemanth> mandring , seeing :)
[08:55] <mandrig> hemanth: Basically they give you a subdomain, like whateveryouwant.takenfromalist.com
[08:55] <hemanth> mandrig, ok then
[08:55] <mandrig> hemanth: so then you could type, in a browser, ftp://whateveryouwant.takenfromalist.com and browse your files
[08:55] <hemanth> mandrig, will my machine be a server
[08:55] <Firio> When I typed it,i got this message: 00:0a.0 Ethernet controller: nVidia Corporation MCP67 Ethernet (rev a2)
[08:56] <mandrig> hemanth: Assuming you have apache2, an ftp-server, and ddclient installed, yes
[08:56] <hemanth> mandrig, me not on static ip
[08:56] <hemanth> mandrig, yes
[08:56] <mandrig> hemanth: you'll have to install ddclient, which is a dyndamic dns updater
[08:56] <crdlb> Firio: ok that's your ethernet (wired) chip
[08:56] <hemanth> mandrig, i need tomcat as i do java
[08:57] <Firio> So how do i use the wireless then?
[08:57] <hemanth> mandrig, ok , then i can use , my_ip:port
[08:57] <mandrig> hemanth: so, sudo apt-get install ddclient and it will prompt you for your info
[08:57] <hemanth> mandrig, in any browser anyhwere on earth
[08:57] <Firio> Any driver I can install or something?
[08:57] <mandrig> hemanth: yep, but you'll have a nameserver you can use instead, like http://hemanth.linuxisgreat.org
[08:58] <crdlb> Firio: put the full output of 'lspci' on a pastebin such as http://paste.ubuntu.com
[08:58] <primski> Intrepid NetworkManager - can I tell it to use a custom wpa_supplicant.conf file?
[08:58] <hemanth> mandrig, ok :) , now ddclinet is asking me
[08:58] <hemanth> dns service provider
[08:58] <Ethos> how do I enable write access on samba?
[08:59] <crdlb> Firio: we still don't know which wireless card you have
[08:59] <Ethos> I have "read only = no" on the share config in smb.conf
[08:59] <mandrig> hemanth: you have to sign up with a site like http://dyndns.org first, its free
[08:59] <hemanth> mandrig, ok i m now :)
[08:59] <crdlb> primski: no idea; are you doing something with wpa that the nm gui doesn't support?
[08:59] <arcnewuss> i think gnome conflicts with my network setup
[09:00] <koshari> Ethos the basic file permissions still need to be enforced
[09:00] <arcnewuss> im used to setup my network from xterm but it wont connect
[09:00] <arcnewuss> actually sometimes it connects and sometimes it bugs
[09:00] <arcnewuss> i do: iwconfig wlan0 essid bob
[09:00] <arcnewuss> ifup
[09:01] <primski> crdlb, yes my edu network requires EAP-MD5 challenge type, NM offers only EAP-CHAP with auth type MD5 which is no go. I can kill wpa_supplicant and spawn it using cli and my custom conf file just fine. just nm-applet wont do it. the problem is, vmware doenst recognize my network device then and therefore no net in xp :s
[09:01] <Ethos> hmm, confusing koshari
[09:01] <arcnewuss> but it wont run
[09:01] <Ethos> I've install samba and used the smbpasswrd -a user and set a password
[09:01] <Ethos> although that's just for samba server isn't it
[09:01] <hemanth> mandrig, done i registered :)
[09:01] <Firio> crdlb: Here it is--> http://paste.ubuntu.com/116727/
[09:02] <mandrig> hemanth: and you already have apache2 and sftp installed?
[09:02] <hemanth> mandrig, yes :)
[09:02] <mandrig> hemanth: then continue with ddclient
[09:02] <hemanth> ok
[09:02] <hemanth> mandrig, ok
[09:02] <crdlb> primski: well, I don't think nm can accept a wpa_supplicant.conf, but you should file a bug if nm doesn't support your network
[09:03] <primski> crdlb. ok thanks, i'll do that.
[09:03] <primski> crdlb...i was thinking...where does nm get it default settings? hardcoded? it must take somesort of conf file, no ?
[09:04] <Firio> crdlb: So.. Did u check it?
[09:04] <primski> well anyways.... i'll file a bug report. thanks for help
[09:04] <mattycoze> okay digital8 thanks for your help man
[09:05] <crdlb> Firio: yeah, you have a broadcom wireless card
[09:05] <Firio> Will that work on ubuntu?
[09:05] <hemanth> mandrig, i making a domain
[09:05] <bisho>  /j #graphicsmagick
[09:05] <crdlb> Firio: look in System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers
[09:06] <Firio> And then what?
[09:06] <zcat[1]> If I wanted to scan a USB drive with clamav automatically as soon as it gets mounted, and/or automatically remove any 'autorun' file, what would be the best way of setting that up?
[09:06] <masaki> um..
[09:06] <crdlb> Firio: there may be a broadcom driver which you can activate
[09:07] <hemanth> mandrig, i did , its saying Domain hemanth.dyndns.com is not available. Transfers not allowed.
[09:07] <Firio> There r only two NVIdia accelerated graphics drivers listed there
[09:08] <mandrig> hemanth: so choose a domain thats not taken already
[09:08] <hemanth> mandrig, ok
[09:08] <Firio> And there are a Broadcom B43 wireless driver
[09:08] <hemanth> mandrig, I want DNS service from DynDNS.com (recommended) is better right ?
[09:09] <crdlb> Firio: where?
[09:09] <crdlb> I thought you said there was only the two nvidia drivers?
[09:09] <Firio> When I choosed the hardware drivers
[09:09] <mandrig> hemanth: Thats the service I use, and I have no troubles with them
[09:09] <Firio> There r only two NVIdia accelerated graphics drivers listed there
[09:09] <Firio> And there are a Broadcom B43 wireless driver
[09:09] <hemanth> mandrig, ok
[09:09] <Firio> These r the 3 that are lsited
[09:10] <Firio> *listed
[09:10] <crdlb> Firio: ok, so you want to enable the broadcom one :)
[09:10] <koshari> hemanth you can choose another domain name from dyndns
[09:10] <mandrig> hemanth: which service did you choose? Dynamic DNS, Custom DNS, etc?
[09:10] <Firio> If that is the wireless,then yes,but i have already activated it
[09:10] <stewartc> has anyone had issues after upgrading Firefox this morning (8.10)?
[09:10] <zcat[1]> There's some 'on-insert' triggers in gnome, right? dammit, looks like I'll have to figure this out myself
[09:11] <hemanth> koshari, mandrig , coustom
[09:11] <koshari> hemanth ie hemanth.homlinux.whatever ect
[09:11] <crdlb> Firio: well, that's supposed to do it
[09:11] <crdlb> Firio: have you tried rebooting since enabling it?
[09:11] <Firio> Think so.. not sure
[09:11] <mandrig> hemanth: you are going to want to go back and chose the dynamic dns service, as its the only free one
[09:12] <n0gear_> stewartc yes pdf reading problem
[09:12] <hemanth> mandrig, koshari , ok ill do that one sec
[09:12] <Firio> Maybe i shall deactivate it and then activate it again.. then reboot
[09:12] <stewartc> n0gear: I restarted and all I get is a grey box :(
[09:13] <stewartc> I'd google a solution if I could open a browser :)
[09:13] <crdlb> Firio: if that doesn't work, you could try searching for broadcom on the ubuntu forums
[09:13] <n0gear_> :) i'll have a look
[09:13] <Firio> Can u do that for me please?
[09:13]  * stewartc will try the windoze way and re-boot the system :D
[09:14] <zcat[1]> dammit, I've found where to define what to do on detecting an MP3 player or a photo card.. I want a setting that runs a script for 'any USB mass-storage device'
[09:15] <hemanth> mandrig, koshari , i did custom then did this.....it says  DNS services cannot be added for kirataka.dyndns.org
[09:15] <zcat[1]> blasted gnome developers keep removing USEFUL functionality! That doesn't make gnome better, it makes it Frustrating!

[09:32] <kinja-sheep> Firio: If you have wireless on your machine, Ubuntu should already enable the wifi in the kernel for you. Firio.  Yes.  You can get your "My computer" and "Trash" on the desktop.  It's easier to have them in the panel-bar though.
,,,with audio codecs or video Codecs ?

[09:41] <propagandhi> or set it static?
[09:41] <Jaan|Perfect> i would like it to be static
[09:41] <propagandhi> so change dhcp
[09:41] <propagandhi> to static
[09:41] <Jaan|Perfect> in network tools ?
[09:41] <propagandhi> then do: address <IP_ADDRESS> \n  netmask <IP_ADDRESS>  \n gateway <IP_ADDRESS> \n
[09:42] <mak_> >Jaan|perfect>,,,, sudo ifconfig <interface> up/down
[09:42] <propagandhi> u can either edit the file if you are confident
[09:42] <propagandhi> or, use the network manager
[09:43] <miranda_psi1> Does anyone know how to get a zune to work under linux? (longshot I know)
,,,,,, If you wan't to retain as static.,,,,, edit in /etc/network/interfaces
[09:43] <sophia> Jaan|Perfect: try restarting network using /etc/init.d/networking restart
[09:44] <zcat[1]> the zune isn't an ordinary USB mass storage drive?
[09:46] <miranda_psi1> zcat[1]: no - the best ive managed is trying to use it as a mtp device (can list files/folders, but thats it)
[09:47] <Geboy> hellloooo
[09:47] <sophia> helllooo
[09:48] <Geboy> oh i thought no one home
[09:48] <Geboy> :D
[09:48] <disappearedng> hey how do I find out what driver my wireless is using?
[09:48] <Geboy> how can i manage ubuntu server from web interface
[09:48] <mak_> helllloooooooooo
[09:49] <rww> !webmin | Geboy
[09:49] <somaunn> hello mak_
[09:49] <marius222> hello. i need some help about changing themes. COuld someone help me please?
[09:49] <rww> oops
[09:49] <mak_> wer r u from,,,,,, <somaunn>
[09:49] <rww> !ebox | Geboy
[09:49] <zcat[1]> the more I hear about the zune (or the ipod) the more I love my cheap, functional Chinese no-brand player!
[09:50] <rww> zcat[1]: amen to that
[09:50] <Geboy> tq
[09:50] <miranda_psi1> zcat[1]: its not as cheap as this zune - FREE :D
[09:50] <miranda_psi1> about the only good thing about it...
[09:50] <zcat[1]> miranda_psi1, so you only paid what it's actually worth then?
[09:51] <marius222> when i change the themes, somehow "controls" (progress bar, radio check's, scrollbars) remain unchanged. Is there some "global" settings, where this could be locked?
[09:51] <miranda_psi1> zcat[1]: pretty much, but now I have it I may as well use it
[09:51] <disappearedng> hey how do I find out what driver my wireless is using?
[09:52] <shankhs> hi guys does anybody know how to download source code using bazaar
[09:52] <marius222> i did exactly the same changes in another PC, and it did work perfectly. On this PC progress bars, radio buttons , scrollbars always remain orange - when the theme clearly has it blue.
[09:52] <marius222> someone? pls
[09:53] <shankhs> I am always getting stuffs which say: bzr: ERROR: socket.error: (111, 'Connection refused')
[09:53] <palmar> Hæ
[09:54] <shankhs> marius222: how did you change your theme?
[09:54] <marius222> well, right click desktop
[09:54] <marius222> installed the theme
[09:55] <shankhs> marius222: did you click on customise button
[09:55] <marius222> i did
[09:55] <FreakStyles> Ich melde mich wenn ich soweit fertig bin. Danke für eure Hilfe!
[09:56] <palmar> hllo
[09:56] <marius222> but does not matter which theme (even standard themes) do i apply, these things do not change from orange. I click "customize", go onto the controls tab, i change the themes for the controls, but they do not change
[09:56] <palmar> Hallo
[09:56] <elli_> hæhæ
[09:56] <nemandi> hi
[09:57] <sys> Sælir
[09:57] <rww> !en
[09:57] <Daemonic> ENGRISH PREASE!
[09:57] <marius222> i tried to look for the gtkrc file of the theme i use - and the links to the scrollbars are correct. They should be blue
[09:58] <rakudave> marius222: metacity != compiz
[09:58] <shankhs> marius222: rakudave +1
[09:59] <ko1> what is the name for the first logical scsi drive ?
[09:59] <rakudave> shankhs: :)
[10:01] <shankhs> I think there is a bug in bzr which prevents it from passing through proxy... How can I download the source code of bazaar then?
[10:01] <marius222> rakudave - what exactly do you mean?
[10:01] <marius222> yes, compiz is enabled
[10:02] <Ethos> What's the best way to take an image of an ubuntu server (for hdd failure)
[10:02] <rakudave> marius222: sorry :) this means that if you change the metacity theme, it might not change the compiz theme, depending on your settings
[10:02] <blueraven> does anyone know if ubuntu is installed in c:\ubuntu?
[10:02] <Adrian`> ...
[10:02] <Adrian`> shouldn't be
[10:02] <rakudave> blueraven: there is no c:/ in linux ^^
[10:02] <Ethos> LOL
[10:02] <blueraven> because that's the directory I see in windows
[10:03] <rww> blueraven: if you're using wubi, Ubuntu is installed there, yes
[10:03] <MaKiNoTa> hi
[10:03] <Adrian`> ah
[10:03] <Adrian`> wubi sounds lame
[10:03] <Tokoloshe> linux is not windows
[10:03] <Adrian`> ext3 ftw
[10:04] <erUSUL> Ethos: use partimage for partitions and/or clonezilla for the whole disc
[10:04] <Adrian`> nothing worse than having a windows machine screw up your thumb drive partition
[10:04] <Ethos> thanks erUSUL :)
[10:04] <feintoR> Hey ,how to install ventrilo on ubuntu 2.1.4 version? who can help me?
[10:06] <shankhs> feintoR: sudo apt-get install ventrilo not working?
[10:06] <feintoR> shankhs: I don't have install ventrilo,can you help me?
[10:06] <shankhs> feintoR: do you know how to compile from the source?
[10:06] <Tokoloshe> What about synaptic
[10:07] <marius222> rakudave - everything else from metacity theme works, except controls (progress bar, radio buttons, check buttons, scrollbars). In compiz settings there is nothing, that could affect these things as far as i can find
[10:07] <Niko_> ventrilo has a Linux version? I didn't think it had when I went looking
[10:07] <rascal999> when i try and turn my computer on at the power button it doesn't turn on for another 1-20 minutes, I think its psu, but i can't afford a new one so is there anything i can do?
[10:07] <feintoR> shankhs: Maybe you know tauturial?
[10:07] <shankhs> it has http://www.ventrilo.com/dlprod.php?id=102
[10:07] <Wizzup> It's not done yet, but they are working on a linux version. I checked yesterday
[10:07] <feintoR> I need 2.1.4 version :S
[10:07] <rww> shankhs: that's a server, not the ventrilo client
[10:08] <Niko_> Oh right the server..
[10:08] <feintoR> yes server...
[10:08] <Niko_> Sorry got a tad excited that they had finally released a client =[
[10:08] <feintoR> i want great a 2.1.4 Ventrilo server on Ubuntu.
[10:08] <shankhs> feintoR: read this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=323939
[10:08] <rakudave> marius222: then it might be that the specific control-theme is not installed correctly or something... (?)
[10:08] <Wizzup> What can cause 120gb of space to be 'unusable'?
[10:09] <Wizzup> Last thing I did was to resize the partition, and decrease it's size by 120gb
[10:09] <Wizzup> now those free 120gb are 'unusable'. also, sorry for not putting it all on one line
[10:09] <feintoR> shankhs: i install this..
[10:09] <feintoR> i need ventrilo server 2.1.4 but i don't know how install it.
[10:09] <feintoR> :S
[10:10] <Niko_> Wizzup: are you talking about the partition you shrunk or the space you freed?
[10:10] <shankhs> feintoR: read the link and also README.txt in the source
[10:11] <ko1> Wizzup: not formatted ?
[10:11] <pipasso> ciao a tutti italiano
[10:11] <marius222> rakudave - well, it happens even when i do change the preinstalled (standard) themes. So it is not the theme installation issue. And i installed the same theme on other PC's in exactly the same way, and it worked. There is something in this particular PC that prevents theme controls to show up, some settings ovverride it (but only the controls). Is there something like global gtkrc file?
[10:11] <feintoR> shankhs: where you see README.txt?
[10:11] <Wizzup> ko1: It won't allow me to format it, either
[10:11] <Boohbah_> !it | pipasso
[10:12] <Wizzup> Or I'm being a total noob, but I've never worked with gparted alot, mainly just fdisk.
[10:12] <shankhs> feintoR: ventrilo_srv.htm in this case
[10:13] <feintoR> shankhs: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=41737&page=20
[10:13] <marius222> rakudave - could you please tell me how to temporary stop compiz to see if it is the problem?
[10:13] <rakudave> marius222: i don't think so... i'm out of ideas (except that themes wont work with anything running as sudo such as synaptics etc...)
[10:13] <feintoR> but i need 2.1.4 version ;s
[10:13] <feintoR> where is 2.2
[10:13] <ko1> Wizzup: not much use to myself atm but thought I'd ask the obvious
[10:14] <rakudave> marius222: "metacity --replace" in a terminal and "compiz-start" to start compiz again
[10:14] <shankhs> feintoR: do this : 1 extract 2. move to the folder 3. ./ventrilo.srv in the terminal
[10:15] <shankhs> feintoR: are u getting me?
[10:15] <feintoR> no.
[10:15] <Niko_> Wizzup: if your talking about the spaced you freed from the resise did you set it a filesystem?  No action is allowed on the space
[10:18] <Wizzup> Well, I've chosen to use the guided - resize option for now, I'll fix it once I am on a not live-cd
[10:19] <innociv> How do I give an sftp user the ability to write and modify chmod in the home/user dir for them? :/
[10:19] <Niko_> Wizzup: Sorry I cant help, Never had that before using GParted =[
[10:20] <Wizzup> Niko_: Same. Haha. I'll open up good old fdisk soon
[10:20] <Niko_> Wizzup: Haven't used that in YEARS! Must of been 12 again xD
[10:21] <marius222> rakudave - no, stopping compiz does not help
[10:21] <marius222> its the pure metacity problem
[10:21] <Wizzup> Ah, I have never used anything but fdisk, hehe
[10:21] <marius222> anyway ty 4 your help
[10:22] <ko1> I seem to have trashed a raid one (two 18g scsi ) array is there any way to mount and fsck the individual pieces of the array ie sda , sdb etc ?
[10:22] <Wizzup> How did you 'trash' it, what does it say? Using mdadm?
[10:23] <rakudave> marius222: hmm... all themes are located in /home/you/.themes perhaps you can solve the problem by looking in there and see if the theme you intend to activate exists there and has all the parts it requires
[10:23] <ko1> power cycle caused 5 errors on one drive I'm unable to mount the logical volume
[10:24] <Wizzup> Can't you restore it using the other disk?
[10:24] <ko1> Wizzup: in answer to the question no , hardware raid
[10:24] <ko1> tried
[10:24] <Wizzup> Right. Well, can't help then. I know nothing about hardware raid. :)
[10:25] <ko1> it appears I don't either
[10:25] <|ntegra|> at the commandline, how can I see the details of the wireless driver that I'm using?
[10:27] <erUSUL> |ntegra|: lshw -C Network
[10:27] <|ntegra|> erUSUL: I'm on it, thanx
[10:28] <marius222> rakudave - hm... it seems like controls (radio buttons, checkboxes etc) are the same for all themes. Very strange
[10:29] <rakudave> marius222: strange... can't think of another explanation... perhaps you might try to download a theme from gnome-look.org and see if this works. if not, it if proof that something is wrong with your metacity
[10:30] <Wizzup> ko1: I found the problem with my gparted. There are just too many primairy partitions.
[10:31] <ko1> Wizzup: u only get 4 ! :-)
[10:31] <absynth> :)
[10:31] <Wizzup> ko1: I forgot. ;)
[10:32] <duncan-nz> SAMBA Question. I am getting the message "Unable to mount location - failed to retrieve share list from server". The samba service is running on the remote machine so I don't understand the problem.
[10:32] <ko1> Wizzup: I have too , ahhCOUGHhemm several times ...
[10:32] <Wizzup> Hehe. Is there a way to turn a prim part into a secondary part. I kind of forgot..
[10:33] <duncan-nz> SAMBA Question... Ah, now that I have logged into the remote machine and looked at the services, suddenly it works. How can that be?
[10:33] <absynth> Wizzup:delete :D
[10:33] <Wizzup> absynth: without losing data... :P
[10:33] <ko1> man fdisk
[10:33] <Wizzup> (gparted)
[10:33] <absynth> hmm
[10:35] <Wizzup> I'll del it. I have it back upped anyway
[10:35] <v> http://temp.nesky.cz/e-library/
[10:36] <absynth> Wizzup: cp Data from part. b to a, delete b,make new b, cp Data from a to b...
[10:36] <absynth> just what i wanted to say
[10:36] <absynth> ^^
[10:36] <Wizzup> Yea, alright. I would have done that, but no terminals in the ubu installer
[10:39] <Ubuntu``> how do I change the permission on a disk where I dont have to have root access to write to it?
[10:39] <rww> Wizzup: Ctrl-Alt-F1 works during installation. You can even run commands like: DISPLAY=":0" firefox &
[10:39] <Ubuntu``> I have an external usb I am trying to use
[10:39] <Wizzup> Oh, right. THanks rww
[10:42] <v> nevi nekdo, jak se da stahnout cely ftp server bez toho, abych musel na kazkou polozku zvlast kliknout?
[10:43] <absynth> Ubuntu``:Do you tried to use as root?
[10:43] <v> nevi nekdo, jak se da stahnout cely ftp server bez toho, abych musel na kazkou polozku zvlast kliknout?

[10:48] <Russian> hey guys
[10:48] <Daemonic> go beat someone up on video you dirty russian.
[10:49] <Daemonic> be sure they're innocent before you do.
[10:49] <Wunderbar> anyone know why the sound doesn't work with smplayer in kubuntu???
[10:49] <Russian> Daemonic: what?
[10:49] <innociv> how do i chmod all subdirs?
[10:50] <rww> innociv: chmod -R
[10:50] <rww> Daemonic: That's inappropriate.
[10:50] <CaneToad> Daemonic: agreed
[10:51]  * Daemonic licks CaneToad
[10:51] <Russian> Aren't there any rules, why am I being flamed for no reason?
[10:51] <Wunderbar> lol
[10:51] <Daemonic> that wasn't a flame. it was a cheap stab.
[10:51] <rww> !coc | Daemonic: go read
[10:51] <innociv> ty
[10:52] <fahrisal> hai
[10:52] <fahrisal> hiiiiiiii
[10:53] <Daemonic> my apologies Russian.
[10:53] <Tyrath> if you install MSN messenger 7 in ubuntu will paltalk work?
[10:54] <Wunderbar> :)
[10:54] <Tyrath> or is there another less resource intensive way to get paltalk to work?
[10:54] <OriWB> Can somebody please help me? My internet stops working over and over even though it says I'm still connected. But when I disable, and then enable the wireless connection, it works fine
[10:54] <ociugi> why is it root access in ubuntu is off by default?
[10:54] <Myrtti> !rootsudo | ociugi
[10:54] <Tyrath> - if that's the only way to get paltalk to work, would someone be able to give me a link to install msn messenger 7?
[10:54] <Wunderbar> because gnome is for dummies
[10:54] <Tyrath> - like a torrent or something
[10:55] <Wizzup> Tyrath: Why not use pidgin?
[10:55] <Tyrath> ociugi: I don't get what you mean, off by default
[10:55] <bullgard4> [man lsof] Will operating systems covered by lsof but other than Linux call structures equivalent to an inode other than 'inode'? 'man lsof' seems to differentiate between 'inodes' and other 'nodes'.
[10:55] <Tyrath> Wizzup: I hate GUI messenger clients, the only reason i need paltalk is cause i need to communicate over audio with others in a company that seems to favor paltalk
[10:55] <Wunderbar> you can't access root unless you sudo apt etc...is what he means
[10:55] <OriWB> Can somebody please help me? My internet stops working over and over even though it says I'm still connected. But when I disable, and then enable the wireless connection, it works fine
[10:56] <Wizzup> ociugi: because the root account can be dangerous. I don't know the exact reasons, but if you really want a root termina, try sudo -s -H
[10:56] <rww> Tyrath: Per http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=3824 , you probably won't have much luck with it.
 i mean it is not available to use the root account
[10:56] <Wizzup> Tyrath: You could always try and see if it works in wine
[10:56] <rww> ociugi: because "sudo" does everything you'd want to do with the root account, and is more secure.
[10:57] <Tyrath> ociugi: have you tried sudo su ?
[10:57] <Tyrath> ociugi: that puts you into root
[10:57] <Tyrath> ociugi: and if you're lazy bind an alias and stick it in .bash_aliases
[10:57] <rww> Tyrath: sudo -i is preferred for that
[10:57] <Tyrath> rww: k, thanks
[10:57] <PodMan99a> hey all ... ubuntu-xen... ne one know if any scripts to manage domU's creation?
 i am newbie in linux i did not tried yet
[10:58] <Firio> Hi all.. now i can surf wireless using ubuntu
[10:58] <gajop> is there a way to set DMA on my hard disk? really annoying having pc nearly freeze up when I do any big file moving, or open big files (i.e movies)
[10:58] <Tyrath> ociugi: do you know how to use vim?
[10:58] <pixelfairy> is pulseaudio going into the next version of ubuntu? has it been fixed? theres still a significant lag with SDL on two different laptops that doesnt exist in kde
[10:58] <kjell> Firio: Sweet. Got a supportquestion?
[10:58] <Firio> Do I really need ato install virus programme for ubuntu like on Vista?
[10:58] <Tyrath> Wizzup: I've tried that multiple times - no luck :/
[10:58] <pixelfairy> gajop: man hdparm
 a little bit
[10:59] <rww> !virus | Firio
[10:59] <LostChain> hello
[10:59] <hemanth_> dyndns help required :(
[10:59] <LostChain> can anyone help me
[10:59] <LostChain> i am new to ubuntu
 i want to edit my menu.lst but i cant save
[10:59] <Jaan|Perfect> In netwrok connections. Auto eth0 : "never" may i know what is this ?
[10:59] <Firio> Oh.. so I don't need virus programme on ubuntu
[10:59] <kjell> rww: Where do you find all the commands for ubottu?
[10:59] <Tyrath> ociugi: ok, well if you open up .bashrc in vim, you will see a line where the link to .bash_aliases is commented out (ie, is surrounded by # characters)
[10:59] <PodMan99a> hey ... my /etc/init.d/xend is missing
[10:59] <Wizzup>  Tyrath Darn. And are there any other open source programs that can use paltalk? (I really don't even know what it is, though)
[11:00] <rww> ociugi: "sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst" or "gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst" for GUI
[11:00] <gajop> pixelfairy: ok, so I get this: http://pastebin.com/m4f94eafc, what now?
[11:00] <rww> !list | kjell
[11:00] <bullgard4> What DEB package provides gvfsd-cdd? I could not find that out using packages.ubuntu.com. http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/394081
[11:00] <Tyrath> ociugi: after you have uncommented the # characters surrounding the file link type :w! to save
[11:00] <Wizzup> Firio: You don't need a virus program. As long as you don't do incredibly silly things. (Giving programs you don't trust root etc)
[11:00] <Tyrath> ociugi: then exit
[11:00] <kjell> Firio: Nope. But some use antiviruses to minimize the possibility to spread viruses to Windowsusers when sending mail etc.
[11:00] <Wizzup> Tyrath: I think it's :w to save
[11:00] <Wizzup> and :q to exit
[11:00] <pixelfairy> gajop: what kind of disk is it?
[11:00] <Firio> Nice
[11:00] <Wizzup> :q! to exit without saving
[11:00] <Tyrath> Wizzup: I use vim all the time, I know what I'm talking about :P
[11:01] <Firio> Btw.. what kind of files does ubuntu use?
[11:01] <gajop> pixelfairy: ATA
[11:01] <Wizzup> So do I, you don't need a ! after the w
[11:01] <Tyrath> Wizzup: the ! makes it a compulsary action
[11:01] <pixelfairy> gajop: is it over usb?
[11:01] <LostChain> i was watching a demonstration of ubuntu on youtube, and i saw the desktop turn into a cube and was able to switch in between desktops using that cube interface, does anyone know to initiate that
[11:01] <Wizzup> hmm
[11:01] <Tyrath> Wizzup: so you can accidently type :w
[11:01] <gajop> pixelfairy: PATA to be precise... a 200GB Maxtor I think, no, not USB
[11:01] <rww> !cube | LostChain
[11:01] <Tyrath> Wizzup: but it won't allow any changes
[11:01] <PodMan99a> ne one here using xen ??... can you pastebin your /etc/init.d/xend file... i deleted it ... WHOOPS and dont know how to get it back
[11:01] <jcfp> bullgard4: that would be gvfs-backends
[11:01] <pixelfairy> gajop: so its just a normal ide (pata) hard drive?
[11:01] <gajop> pixelfairy: it's on the standard IDE cable
[11:01] <Tyrath> Wizzup: :w! confirms that you actually did intend to overwrite the file
[11:02] <Wizzup> I see... Well we all learn something new every day :)
[11:02] <gajop> pixelfairy: yep, normal
[11:02] <Firio> Can ubuntu also use exe?
[11:02] <kjell> Firio: Look up Wine.
[11:02] <gajop> Firio: only through wine (google it)
