[05:29] <N2DIY> Hi gang, my live CD doesn't find my serial mouse, ideas?
[05:29] <tonyyarusso> Aeos: By reset, do you mean reboot or something else?
[05:30] <truz24> gnomefreak, for instance, the rpm command to do this is: rpm -qf /bin/cp
[05:30] <Aeos> reboot
[05:30] <orbin> truz24: dpkg -S
[05:30] <Aeos> I couldnt get the computer to respond so I had to rebot
[05:30] <stjepan> can I redownload ubuntu with deltup?
[05:30] <tonyyarusso> Aeos: You have a command line now then?
[05:30] <orbin> truz24: or use packages.ubuntu.com
[05:30] <Aeos> yes
[05:30] <truz24> orbin, that works great, thanks.
[05:30] <tonyyarusso> Aeos: Try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'.
[05:31] <wasona> ola

[05:31] <bucketfan99> hrm

[05:32] <Mersault> has anyone put together a package for transcode and associated tools that has a functional yuvdenoise for breezy? the package from the ubuntu repo's is a little crippled.

[05:43] <tonyyarusso> gnomefreak: Do we have any kind of page somewhere that says "Development release brokenness is 7/10 today.  Upgrade not recommended.", kind of like a Smokey Bear forest fire risk level?

[05:49] <deflux-> I'm trying to remote login to a remote linux machine from my ubuntu.
[05:49] <deflux-> But the login screen doesn't have a remote system login.
[05:49] <deflux-> Anyone know how to enable this?
[05:49] <gnomefreak> lol i didnt import your key
[05:49] <gnomefreak> tonyyarusso: so it shouldnt make a difference
[05:49] <tonyyarusso> Aeos: Hmm.  Well, you could retry the process, restore your xorg.conf from a backup if you have one, or wait for an X guru to swing by.
[05:50] <tonyyarusso> gnomefreak: Could be my lab demonstrator just has buggy software.  He does run Windows after all ;)
[05:50] <Aeos> darn, this laptop battery should die soon, so I am fubar until I can get my laptop power cord
[05:50] <gnomefreak> tonyyarusso: very well could be
[05:51] <orbin> Aeos: what did you change?
[05:51] <Aeos> I just left my computer running
[05:51] <gnomefreak> brb
[05:51] <Aeos> when I came back to it, it wouldnt wake up
[05:51] <_Marek_> does anyone run the mplayer mozilla plugin without problems?
[05:51] <Aeos> I did disable my screensaver because that would hang my system
[05:51] <me2win> _Marek_: me
[05:51] <Aeos> great 5 mins of battery life...
[05:52] <orbin> Aeos: did it look like it went into suspend?
[05:52] <Aeos> yes
[05:52] <_Marek_> me2win, have you installed it from ftp.netrim.net?
[05:52] <Aeos> the monitor went into powersave mode but wouldnt wake up
[05:52] <orbin> Aeos: do you have an ati card?

[05:52] <_Marek_> me2win, eh nerim.net
[05:52] <Aeos> radeon 9000pro
[05:52] <sfar> will "chmod 000 /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh" disable my  powerbutton?

[05:53] <Aeos> crap I am about to lose my last bit of battery
[05:53] <orbin> Aeos: not sure if this is the issue, but some versions of the fglrx driver won't let you resume from suspend
[05:53] <me2win> _Marek_: uhh not sure, i got it from repos
[05:53] <_Marek_> ok let me try  :)
[05:54] <gnomefreak> Aeos: did you try a button on the keyboard or only mouse?
[05:54] <Gerrath> I was looking at the packages for Dapper and it looks like Webmin is no longer there, why is this?  Is there a better interface to do remote management of a server?

[05:55] <gnomefreak> Aeos: are you on windows (sorry had to ask when you say blue screen) kind of ironic
[05:55] <Gerrath> thanks saskia.  It has been my experiance that if a package is dropped by the distros then there is something better that I'm missing :)

[05:57] <ubotu> Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP, one of the standard internet server installations. Installing LAMP in Ubuntu is fairly straightforward. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[05:57] <me2win> mephis1987_: do sudo nano /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
[05:57] <saskia> take a look at your httpd.conf or something in conf.d
[05:57] <mephis1987_> yes
[05:57] <mephis1987_> me2win, then ?
[05:57] <saskia> which points to the modules
[05:57] <bucketfan99> woa weird. it just didnt' exist.
[05:57] <ProN00b> actually lamp stands for linux apache mysql perl !!!
[05:57] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: need to know what program and what the conflict is please if you can pastebin the full output of apt-get install <program>
[05:57] <me2win> in that file, remove the ; where it says ";extension=mysql.so"
[05:57] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, i do not want to install it now ,how to cancel it
[05:57] <saskia> yes.. like me2win says
[05:57] <gnomefreak> ProN00b: i could have sworn its php
[05:57] <gnomefreak> !lamp
[05:57] <ubotu> Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP, one of the standard internet server installations. Installing LAMP in Ubuntu is fairly straightforward. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[05:58] <saskia> remove the comment, then restart apache
[05:58] <Smerity> Having a bit of a blonde moment, what is a python file's suffix... dotpy?
[05:58] <ProN00b> thats wrong
[05:58] <ProN00b> its perl

[05:58] <ProN00b> no, Smerity, its py
[05:58] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, i want to install latex-cjk but it is conflict with cjk-latex
[05:58] <gnomefreak> Smerity: yes .py
[05:58] <Smerity> ProN00b, gnomefreak, thanks, meant dotpy ( . py) =)
[05:58] <mephis1987_> me2win, then what should i do ?
[05:58] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, i can not cancle it
[05:58] <me2win> mephis1987_: save it and restart apache
[05:59] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: ctrl+c will kill it if you are doing it in terminal
[05:59] <tanuki_> can someone help me with my display? im having trouble achieving 1280x1024 without distortion
[05:59] <gcbirzan> Can one install Ubuntu from an existing Linux install?
[06:00] <saskia> mephis1987_: make a php file with phpinfo(); in it, then access that file from browser (with http points to your web server)
[06:00] <gnomefreak> ProN00b: http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2001/01/25/lamp.html
[06:00] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, no i can get out from the program but once i run "apt-get install ",it will tell me that latex-cjk will be installed
[06:00] <saskia> tanuki_: hack around the frequencies for your monitor
[06:00] <saskia> tanuki_: in the XF86Config-4 file
[06:00] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: what are you using to install it?
[06:00] <mephis1987_> i have enabled mysql.so
[06:00] <tanuki_> saskia: pardon me?
[06:00] <mephis1987_> and restart
[06:01] <tanuki_> what do you mean hack around
[06:01] <mephis1987_> but it still says so
[06:01] <saskia> tanuki_: change the values to the right one for your monitor
[06:01] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, synaptic
[06:01] <saskia> mephis1987_: i need to see your phpinfo(); output
[06:01] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: in terminal type killall -9 synaptic
[06:01] <me2win> mephis1987_: and you got the php5-mysql packages as well as the libapache-mod-auth-mysql packages?
[06:01] <orbin> tanuki_: define distortion
[06:02] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, once i run synaptic again it displayed a error like cache error
[06:02] <pulver> hi! how do i open .sit files on ubuntu?
[06:03] <mephis1987_> me2win, i installed manually from synaptic
[06:03] <orbin> saskia, tanuki_ : xf86 is obsolete btw.  ubuntu uses xorg.  config file is: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:03] <yipe> what might be possible reasons for not being able to access the tty with ctrl alt f1-f6?
[06:03] <tanuki_> saskia: actually i do not know the ranges for my monitor, and cannot find them anywhere on the net or in the manual, i simply get 75mhz vert max
[06:03] <tanuki_> orbin: distortion.
[06:03] <jareth_> pulver: isn't .sit an macosx archivefile?
[06:03] <me2win> mephis1987_: try again with this guide https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[06:03] <saskia> tanuki_: lower it down
[06:03] <pulver> jareth_, yes
[06:03] <arrick> tanuki_, what kind of monitor is it, and what country are you located in?
[06:03] <saskia> orbin: sorry about that
[06:03] <jareth_> pulver: why bother?
[06:03] <tanuki_> saskia: i usually use sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and it works but for some reason it is not now
[06:04] <orbin> tanuki_: yeah, that made it clearer :-/
[06:04] <tanuki_> arrick: an ic power 19 inch lcd, and im in the united states
[06:04] <arrick> you want to set it to 60hz refrsh rate
[06:04] <saskia> tanuki_: lower down the refresh rate
[06:04] <Hexidigital> does anyone know the command to mount an .iso to a virtual device?
[06:04] <jodanlime> does anybody know if open office can do something like word art? I cant find it
[06:04] <saskia> say 50 or 60
[06:04] <pulver> jareth_, because many visual artists are mac fans and they pack their stuff in .sit files, and want to pimp my ubuntu :)
[06:04] <arrick> tanuki_, ^^ see my last
[06:04] <me2win> Hexidigital: yeah
[06:04] <orbin> tanuki_: what's the exact issue? not the right res.? not the right refresh rate?
[06:04] <tanuki_> arrick: how do i do that?
[06:05] <jareth_> pulver: ask them to use tar.
[06:05] <Hexidigital> me2win, thanks... just wondering if someone knew it
[06:05] <tanuki_> probably teh refresh rate, im not sure if it should be at 60 or 75
[06:05] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: type sudo apt-get install latex-cjk and let me know what it says
[06:05] <mephis1987_> saskia, is this info useful ? dbx support 	enabled
[06:05] <mephis1987_> dbx version 	1.1.0
[06:05] <mephis1987_> supported databases 	MySQL ODBC PostgreSQL Microsoft SQL Server FrontBase Oracle 8 (oci8) Sybase-CT SQLite
[06:05] <gnomefreak> ^^^ in terminal
[06:05] <saskia> when you did a reconfigure, you can choose refresh rate, right?
[06:05] <me2win> Hexidigital: sudo mount /path/to/file.iso /media/iso/ -t iso9660 -o loop
[06:05] <gnomefreak> mephis1987_: please use pastebin for your pasting needs
[06:05] <Hexidigital> me2win, thanks :)
[06:05] <arrick> Someone tell tanuki_ how to set the refresh rate to 60hz in ubuntu please?
[06:05] <tanuki_> saskia: it asks you for a range, not a specific frequency
[06:05] <me2win> Hexidigital: make sure you create the iso dir in media
[06:05] <jareth_> pulver: I don't think it's possible what you want. IMHO
[06:05] <gnomefreak> !fixres
[06:05] <ubotu> Please read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[06:05] <saskia> mephis1987_: that doesnt help
[06:06] <Hexidigital> me2win: ok
[06:06] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, i locales is zh_cn ,how to let it display english
[06:06] <arrick> tanuki_, you can set it to a freq, just typ eit in twice
[06:06] <saskia> tanuki_: actually a lot of examples there in the internet
[06:06] <tanuki_> arrick: what do you mean?
[06:06] <saskia> try on
[06:06] <saskia> try one
[06:06] <jodanlime> is there anything like word art in open office?
[06:06] <mephis1987_> saskia, what do u need ?
[06:06] <arrick> type in the 60hz twice to set it to the 60 hz range
[06:06] <mephis1987_> how can i send the page to u ?
[06:06] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: you dont why not try #ubuntu-cn or #ubuntu-zh
[06:06] <pulver> jareth_, agree they should, anyway if someone made an app for it on linux i'll find it... eventually
[06:07] <saskia> mephis1987_: i need to see which modules run on your web server
[06:07] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, nobady there answer me
[06:07] <tanuki_> arrick: you mean like 60-60, like that?
[06:07] <arrick> yes
[06:07] <orbin> arrick, tanuki_ : refresh rate can be chosen via sys>prefs>screen res
[06:07] <jareth_> pulver: mom.. on the phone now :)
[06:07] <saskia> something like: 56-62
[06:07] <orbin> tanuki_: don't do that
[06:07] <pulver> jareth_, lol
[06:07] <tanuki_> orbin: dont do what?
[06:07] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, how to give you the message
[06:08] <mephis1987_> saskia, i have search the phpinfo() page
[06:08] <mephis1987_> there is no info for modules ?
[06:08] <gnomefreak> if you gave it to me i couldnt read it anyway. other than you sit there and type what it says in english word for word not much i can say :(
[06:08] <saskia> mephis1987_: no word of "mysql" ?
[06:08] <jareth_> pulver: wish you luck ! ;)
[06:08] <orbin> tanuki_: you should enter the right rates for your monitor
[06:08] <gnomefreak> anyone in here know chinese?

[06:08] <mephis1987_> supported databases 	MySQL ODBC PostgreSQL Microsoft SQL Server FrontBase Oracle 8 (oci8) Sybase-CT SQLite
[06:09] <mephis1987_> that s all
[06:09] <arrick> orbin, I thank you for you infinite wisdom, I told the rate he needed, I dont know how to change it see above^^ heh ahaha
[06:09] <tanuki_> orbin: i do not know the correct rate, however 75 mhz should work for the vert max
[06:09] <saskia> gnomefreak: wo bu ze dao
[06:09] <arrick> 60 mhx will make it work
[06:09] <tanuki_> ok
[06:09] <gnomefreak> saskia: that doesnt help me much can you translte zuokanyunqi error?
[06:09] <arrick> not 75, to ofast
[06:09] <gnomefreak> translate*
[06:09] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, where to past the message
[06:09] <arrick> !pastebin
[06:09] <ubotu> I heard pastebin is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/, a site for pasting long texts so you don't disrupt the channel - or install webboard in Gnome: http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=1269
[06:09] <gnomefreak> !p[astebin
[06:09] <ubotu> gnomefreak: No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:09] <saskia> gnomefreak: sorry, i can't
[06:10] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, i can let it display in english
[06:10] <gnomefreak> ok try that than
[06:10] <zuokanyunqi> saskia, so you know chinese
[06:10] <arrick> gnomefreak, if you need to use #arrick for pastes, go ahead, if they cant paste
[06:10] <saskia> zuokanyunqi: yi dien dien
[06:10] <arrick> to pastein
[06:10] <zuokanyunqi> arrick, the links
[06:11] <tanuki_> arrick: that did not work, i got an error when i tried to start the xserver
[06:11] <arrick>  type /join #arrick
[06:11] <arrick> ouch
[06:11] <orbin> tanuki_: look at the fixres wiki page gnomefreak gave you.  you need to enter two ranges.  one for horizontal sync and one for vertical refresh.  both of these factor in to the final refresh rate you get
[06:11] <amsterdam> i have some problems with apt-get... gconf: Depends: libdb3 (>= 3.2.9-23) but 3.2.9-22ubuntu1 is to be installed
[06:11] <amsterdam> cat /etc/apt/apt.conf
[06:11] <amsterdam> APT::Default-Release "breezy";
[06:11] <yipe> what might be possible reasons for not being able to access the tty with ctrl alt f1-f6?
[06:11] <arrick> that should have worked with 110v and 60 hz in the us
[06:12] <orbin> tanuki_: by enter the ranges, i mean open up /etc/X11/xorg.conf and edit the Monitor section
[06:12] <amsterdam> what is wrong ? (tried apt-get -t dapper install gconf|libdb3)
[06:12] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, look this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12099
[06:12] <arrick> orbin, thats what someone else said earlir too
[06:12] <gnomefreak> amsterdam: have you run sudo apt-get update and than sudo apt-get upgrade?
[06:12] <saskia> does electricity's power frequency differ monitor's frequency? (50/60Hz) i don't think so
[06:12] <arrick> nope
[06:12] <amsterdam> gnomefreak: yes
[06:12] <tanuki_> orbin: vertrefresh and horizsync, correct? are they case sensetive?
[06:12] <saskia> they're totally different frequencies
[06:13] <mlehrer> newb question here, i want to try kde on dapper
[06:13] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, i just typed apt-get install i want to cancle this
[06:13] <arrick> q
[06:13] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: ok so type y and let it go
[06:13] <mlehrer> how do i get the "standard" kde desktop installed
[06:13] <PuMpErNiCkLe> saskia: I don't think so, but I have heard of 'dirty' power sources messing up the image a bit.
[06:13] <mlehrer> without installing a kubuntu cd
[06:13] <MisterN> saskia: i think TVs were created to have the same freq as the power network. but no, monitor's prolly don't
[06:13] <mlehrer> can i just do apt-get install kde
[06:13] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: thats normal output for installing that package
[06:13] <tanuki_> for some reason i am getting distortion when i use anything past 640x480, which never happened before after using sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:13] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, if i type no ,it will display again
[06:14] <orbin> tanuki_: yeah, get the case right.  correct format is in the wiki page
[06:14] <gnomefreak> mlehrer: sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[06:14] <saskia> what about LCDs ?
[06:14] <tanuki_> orbin: actually that wiki page would not come up for me, can you tell me please?
[06:14] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: just type a y
[06:14] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, if a install another package
[06:14] <mlehrer> gnomefreak: ironic to come from someone named gnomefreak :)  thanks
[06:14] <saskia> probably tubes have this problem
[06:14] <gnomefreak> lol mlehrer
[06:14] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, there will be an error
[06:14] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: than i need the error also
[06:14] <zuokanyunqi> ok
[06:15] <gnomefreak> mlehrer: i run 4-5 desktops
[06:15] <orbin> tanuki_: HorizSync          30-96
[06:15] <orbin>      VertRefresh        50-160
[06:15] <Hexidigital> gnomefreak, would your solution for mleher's situation work for fluxbox?
[06:15] <mlehrer> gnomefreak: which ones
[06:15] <orbin> tanuki_: those are only example range values.
[06:15] <orbin> tanuki_: look, just pastebin /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:15] <gnomefreak> Hexidigital: sudo apt-get install fluxbox
[06:15] <Hexidigital> cool.. thanks gnomefreak
[06:15] <gnomefreak> Hexidigital: flux doent have a meta package
[06:15] <saskia> try mine:         HorizSync       30-82
[06:15] <saskia>         VertRefresh     56-76
[06:16] <zukero> is it safe to remove all the kernels packages that are not directly linked to the one i'm booting on ?
[06:16] <saskia> i use a Philip monitor LCD, 17"
[06:16] <Hexidigital> gnomefreak, what do you mean meta package?
[06:16] <orbin> saskia: he should really try and find out the exact ones for his monitor
[06:16] <saskia> and 1280x1024 res.
[06:16] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: i would keep the one your on and the one before the rest look for in synaptic and completely remove
[06:17] <gnomefreak> Hexidigital: kubuntu-desktop xubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-desktop install a bunch of apps along with the base install
[06:17] <Hexidigital> gnomefreak, i see
[06:17] <gnomefreak> Hexidigital: they are called meta packages for that reason
[06:17] <zuokanyunqi> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12100
[06:18] <Hexidigital> gnomefreak, will gnome programs still work? i.e. gnomebaker, gedit, etc?
[06:18] <gnomefreak> flux black open (box) enlightenment are all basic desktops very verry light weight
[06:18] <gnomefreak> Hexidigital: yes
[06:18] <Linuturk> happy news. I'm on my first attempt to make Ubuntu my primary OS
[06:18] <Linuturk> away from windows
[06:18] <orbin> zukero: sure.  i removed all the 386 stuff after i installed k7
[06:18] <yipe> yay Linuturk!
[06:18] <PuMpErNiCkLe> Linuturk: good job :)
[06:18] <Hexidigital> gnomefreak, i dont  have to reinstall the programs, do i?
[06:18] <zukero> thx dudes
[06:18] <yipe> I just did the same thing about a week ago
[06:18] <arrick> gnomefreak, is there a way to install gedit without gnome?
[06:18] <defcon8> Linuturk, go back to windows
[06:19] <yipe> completely got rid of windows and I haven't looked back:)
[06:19] <Linuturk> i'm still on a dual boot system, but i'm not using windows unless I can't figure something out in an emergency
[06:19] <defcon8> Linuturk, youll hate it
[06:19] <Sanne> Hexidigital, packages.ubuntu.com is a convenient way to search for package names and their dependencies, if you want to have a look.
[06:19] <arrick> Windows is ok, but ubuntu rocks
[06:19] <defcon8> WINDOWS > *
[06:19] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: can you paste me your /etc/apt/sources.list please
[06:19] <Hexidigital> Sanne, thanks... i forgot about that site :)
[06:19] <yipe> defcon8: that's a pretty unpopular opinion around here
[06:19] <gnomefreak> Hexidigital: no
[06:19] <Klay|busy> where * means os2?
[06:19] <Linuturk> defcon8: actually, i already made my girlfriend move over, before I got the nerve to
[06:19] <Sanne> Hexidigital :)
[06:19] <defcon8> Linuturk, just dont do it
[06:19] <cybin> hi
[06:20] <Hexidigital> gnomefreak, sanne, thanks guys.... gotta go play now  :P
[06:20] <yipe> haha linuturk
[06:20] <gnomefreak> Hexidigital: have fun
[06:20] <stamen81> hello
[06:20] <cybin> I want to change the default window manager. Where do I specify it?
[06:20] <defcon8> cybin, ~/.xinitrc
[06:20] <saskia> i still use windows for desktop, and Debian stable for servers, period. but now i just began to peek Ubuntu as desktop
[06:20] <stamen81> where I can get the libraries for Klamav
[06:20] <tonyyarusso> Linuturk: Better than I've managed.
[06:20] <gnomefreak> stamen81: i thought it was clamav?
[06:20] <yipe> I think defcon8 is working for microsoft.... probably on the "Get the facts" campaign:P
[06:20] <PuMpErNiCkLe> gnomefreak: kde integrated version, I guess? :)
[06:20] <zuokanyunqi> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12102
[06:20] <Linuturk> you know what she liked about it? her favorite part was all the screensavers
[06:21] <defcon8> yipe, get the damn facts
[06:21] <yipe> Halloween Papers!:P
[06:21] <cybin> uh... that's all? It was my first idea.
[06:21] <stamen81> yes, but there is Klamav too:)
[06:21] <saskia> Klamav will be thought of something related to KDE
[06:21] <stochastic> I'm a newbie that can't get all of my 40Gig secondary harddrive to be available (it's only letting me have 34.7gigs)
[06:21] <Linuturk> and, she is an XFCE fan
[06:21] <tonyyarusso> defcon8: Um, may I ask why you even bother?
[06:21] <saskia> sounds like AK-47
[06:21] <gnomefreak> stamen81: apt-cache search klamav
[06:21] <defcon8> tonyyarusso, sorry? i've been using nix for 3 years
[06:21] <gnomefreak> that should tell you what they are
[06:21] <stamen81> gnomefreak, so do you know from where I can get them
[06:21] <defcon8> tonyyarusso, people she be intelligent enough to spot the troll
[06:22] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: no wonder :(
[06:22] <cybin> defcon8: I mean, I want to have all the gnome stuff and things but want to replace the window manager.
[06:22] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, i just want to cancle the installation and do not want that appear again
[06:22] <stamen81> gnomefreak, with this command there si nothing
[06:22] <defcon8> cybin, use something called twin
[06:22] <stamen81> because ubuntu knows only clamav
[06:22] <arrick> hey guys can it, windows has it place in the expensive world, while ubuntu has its place in both worlds ?(free and expensive)
[06:22] <tonyyarusso> defcon8: And now that ap* is here, spotting and kickbanning could be closely related.
[06:22] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: tell me what uname -r says when typed into terminal
[06:22] <simonpca> a+, je quitte, exam d'anglais :\
[06:22] <cybin> defcon8: If I put it into .xinitrc it will stop starting gnome I guess.
[06:22] <stamen81> because ubuntu knows only but on the oficial site there is Klamav and clamav
[06:22] <defcon8> tonyyarusso, shit my damn pants
[06:22] <arrick> !language
[06:22] <ubotu> Please watch your language. We try to be nice and help but some of us don't like to see such things on our screen.
[06:22] <gnomefreak> stamen81: than you would have to go where you found it and find the files
[06:22] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, 2.6.15-19-386
[06:23] <stamen81> gnomefreak, I want to install klamav
[06:23] <Linuturk> should I be worried about malware on ubuntu? that hybrid virus did just come out, didn't it?
[06:23] <defcon8> tonyyarusso, take a damn joke and stop the threatening ok?
[06:23] <stochastic> help, my swap space isn't being used, do I need to configure it somehow?
[06:23] <defcon8> cybin, no. you need to read docs
[06:23] <stamen81> gnomefreak, I am downloading from the oficial web sote
[06:23] <saskia> Linuturk: nothing beats social engineering
[06:23] <stamen81> gnomefreak, I am downloading from the oficial web site
[06:23] <defcon8> cybin, first. what is "put" ?
[06:23] <stamen81> gnomefreak, but there is only source and installer
[06:23] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: ok open you /etc/apt/sources.list again and erase whats in it i will give you a list to put in there   what is the country code you use?
[06:23] <Linuturk> saskia: social engineering? you mean, don't click on that if it looks bad?
[06:24] <yipe> I think he's funny, it's like the colbert report, he makes fun of those who hold opposite opinions of him by pretending to be onne of them
[06:24] <cybin> defcon8:I mean, if I write the window manager into my .xinitrc it will just only start the window manager and nothing more.
[06:24] <gnomefreak> stamen81: ubuntu offical website?
[06:24] <stamen81> gnomefreak, no
[06:24] <saskia> Linuturk: you may get fooled, phised, you name it
[06:24] <stamen81> gnomefreak, Klamav
[06:24] <defcon8> cybin, no it will not
[06:24] <defcon8> cybin, there is something extra. use google
[06:24] <gnomefreak> stamen81: its not a ubuntu package you will have to get the tar and compile/build/install it
[06:25] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, what is country code ,cn?
[06:25] <arrick> or else get their sources line
[06:25] <arrick> canada
[06:25] <gnomefreak> ok yes zuokanyunqi
[06:25] <tonyyarusso> arrick: That's ca, not cn.
[06:25] <arrick> oh yeah
[06:26] <arrick> thanks for the correction
[06:26] <saskia> anyway, you can whois him, lookup his IP
[06:26] <arrick> tonyyarusso, how are you so wise at your age?
[06:26] <tonyyarusso> arrick: np - it's in my IP to remind me ;)
[06:26] <arrick> haha
[06:26] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, i am not going to install it now ,how to cancle this
[06:26] <yipe> what might be possible reasons for not being able to access the tty with ctrl alt f1-f6?
[06:26] <stamen81> gnomefreak, ok
[06:26] <saskia> but if he's using open proxy, i don't know
[06:27] <cybin> defcon8: It is still using the default window manager even if I write the other on into my .xinitrc.
[06:27] <defcon8> cybin, i said there is more
[06:27] <defcon8> cybin, i said to use google
[06:27] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: just close the terminal
[06:27] <Sanne> cybin, here's something that may help you: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CustomXSession
[06:27] <cybin> defcon8: Sure. I use google and I've found nothing usefull.
[06:27] <defcon8> cybin, useful*
[06:27] <a4paper> Hello again
[06:27] <cybin> defcon8: That's why I'm here.
[06:27] <defcon8> cybin, search for .xinitrc
[06:27] <saskia> depends on your keyword
[06:28] <cybin> blblbl
[06:28] <a4paper> I have a problem with the LiveCD
[06:28] <cybin> sure
[06:28] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, but once i want to install an package , it will appear again
[06:28] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: paste this into your sources.list file and get rid of whats int here
[06:28] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: if you do as i say it will be installed calm down
[06:28] <gnomefreak> http://pastebin.com/655891
[06:28] <Sanne> cybin, saw my link I gave you?
[06:28] <yipe> so... no one knows why ctrl+alt+f1 isn't working?
[06:28] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: link to new list is http://pastebin.com/655891
[06:28] <a4paper> Can anoyone help me with a booting problem?
[06:29] <gnomefreak> !anyone
[06:29] <ubotu> probably 90% of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? <hint>
[06:29] <a4paper> ok
[06:29] <a4paper> I was just being polite
[06:29] <tonyyarusso> yipe: Not really.  Had trouble with that once b/c of a video driver, but it was more switching back to 7 afterwards than getting to 1-6.
[06:29] <yipe> hmmmm
[06:29] <yipe> this is really odd
[06:29] <a4paper> I've burnt the .sio ok. But when I put it in the drive and startup - it won't boot
[06:29] <a4paper> *.iso
[06:30] <cybin> Sanne: Yes.
[06:30] <dead_kelly> hey all I am running Ubuntu on a G3 iBook that is 500Mhz with 128MB ram... anyway I had sound working from install with the previous ubuntu install disk i used, but on this new distro disk sound isn't coming up... can anyone lend some advice?
[06:30] <Sanne> cybin, ok :)
[06:30] <BSDinux> do you get a boot error or does it simply not boot? you probably have to change your bios startup settings
[06:30] <a4paper> it simplt does not boot
[06:30] <cybin> What I did is to put the line "exec kahakai" into .xinitrc and nothing changed.
[06:30] <saskia> common mistake: people burn the *.iso as a regular file, not burning it as 'image'
[06:30] <a4paper> I went into the bios and tried getting it to boot from the CD drive
[06:30] <a4paper> But it wouldn't
[06:30] <BSDinux> boot into your bios and check if your cd-rom is first in the boot-order
[06:30] <a4paper> I have burnt it ok
[06:30] <a4paper> its second in the order
[06:31] <BSDinux> it has to be before the harddisk
[06:31] <FlannelKing> what's first?
[06:31] <a4paper> How do I change it
[06:31] <BSDinux> otherwise you'll always boot from the hardisk
[06:31] <a4paper> hard drive
[06:31] <BSDinux> depends on your bios, it should say how to change it
[06:31] <saskia> you burn as *.iso will also be ok!
[06:31] <a4paper> Hmm
[06:31] <saskia> use "burn image"
[06:31] <a4paper> I'll have another look
[06:31] <BSDinux> usually page-up, arrow keys or something like that
[06:31] <a4paper> I'll try and change the order then
[06:31] <dead_kelly> hey all I am running Ubuntu on a G3 iBook that is 500Mhz with 128MB ram... anyway I had sound working from install with the previous ubuntu install disk i used, but on this new distro disk sound isn't coming up... can anyone lend some advice?
[06:31] <BSDinux> good luck
[06:31] <harisund> Does anybody having experience using latex on Ubuntu? All my professors use Latex on Linux, and now that I need it too, I was wondering if someone could point me towards good resources for learning and using latex on ubuntu?
[06:31] <a4paper> I'll probably be back soon
[06:32] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, i get this E: The package latex-cjk-korean needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[06:32] <cybin> Ah, I see. To have gdm make use of .xinitrc I need to create a link. Hm.. let's see.
[06:32] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: did you run sudo apt-get update?
[06:32] <zuokanyunqi> yes
[06:32] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: ok now type sudo apt-get install --reinstall latex-cjk-korean
[06:33] <isa> ...
[06:33] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, where does the apt-get record install message
[06:33] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, i want to remove that
[06:33] <sophtpaw> hi girl_latina
[06:33] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi:you want to remove what?

[06:33] <zuokanyunqi> yes

[06:34] <saskia> sophtpaw: search in google or digg.com
[06:34] <sophtpaw> saskia: for what?
[06:35] <saskia> skype on ubuntu
[06:35] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: i dont understand what you want. i thought you wanted the package installed?
[06:35] <sophtpaw> guys, does anyone here know whether skype works on Ubuntu now?
[06:35] <saskia> doh
[06:35] <gnomefreak> sophtpaw: it should as always
[06:35] <BSDinux> why don't you try
[06:35] <sophtpaw> saskia: i know where to find skype, i want to know whether it works on ubuntu
[06:35] <gnomefreak> on dapper i dont know and people that are asking dapper questions please move over to #ubuntu+1
[06:35] <sophtpaw> gnomefreak: well it never did for me before : (
[06:35] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, no if i reboot,and run "apt-get install" i will get that error again
[06:36] <zuokanyunqi> gnomefreak, i just type "apt-get install"
[06:36] <saskia> then try
[06:36] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: you dont just type that
[06:36] <gnomefreak> that will give you error
[06:37] <gnomefreak> zuokanyunqi: please join #ubuntu+1 for further assistance
[06:37] <harisund> Does anybody having experience using latex on Ubuntu? All my professors use Latex on Linux, and now that I need it too, I was wondering if someone could point me towards good resources for learning and using latex on ubuntu?
[06:38] <cybin> Uh.. guys... as I said. As soon as the .xinitrc is recognized it is just starting the window manager and nothing more.
[06:38] <N2DIY> How can I configure my serial mouse using the live CD?

[06:38] <cybin> I want to replace the default window manager for gnome.
[06:39] <sophtpaw> gnomefreak: was there a 'best' way as i recall of installing skype on ubuntu? like the rpm version and installing it with alien? or just the straightforward .deb version?
[06:39] <saskia> cybin: apt-get install gdm ? or dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[06:39] <saskia> oh, the whole thing? window manager?
[06:39] <jean> i am having problems installing the package libpango1.0-0 and  libpango1.0-common as they seem to depend on eachother... any ideas?
[06:40] <terlmann> does anyone know about alternatives to synaptic package manager?                              I want to replace the default window manager for gnome too.
[06:40] <saskia> jean: aren't there suppose to be no dependencies problem here?
[06:40] <PuMpErNiCkLe> sophtpaw: .deb is usually better than .rpm, since .deb is the 'native' way of handling packages on ubuntu
[06:40] <erUSUL> harisund, the best way to begin is with lyx IMHO
[06:40] <jean> saskia: hrm.. in this channel? or with the two packages?
[06:40] <Sanne> cybin, terlmann re window manager: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Openbox
[06:41] <saskia> jean: with the packages
[06:41] <cybin> Sanne: ? I dont want openbox. I want to use kahakai instead.
[06:41] <harisund> erUSUL: lyx? ok I will try that. What is that? Is that like an IDE?
[06:41] <jean> saskia: well if you take a look here (the second post) you can see what is outputted http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=159117
[06:42] <anymo> cybin, you mean you want to choose default one between kde and gnome?
[06:42] <arrick> ok guys Later
[06:42] <sophtpaw> PuMpErNiCkLe: ok, thx. I knew that but vaguely recall people in this instance using alien to install the rpm version of skype
[06:42] <Sanne> cybin, I thought maybe this page might get you ideas how to do that.
[06:42] <anymo> cybin, choose default window manager, anyway?
[06:42] <arrick> terlmann, you caould use terminal
[06:42] <N2DIY> Ok, no mouse, how do I navigate Xwindow from the keyboard?
[06:42] <anymo> cybin, I think it was a command ... something like update-alternatives x-window-manager
[06:43] <anymo> cybin, has to be run as root I think, so sudo...
[06:43] <PuMpErNiCkLe> sophtpaw: Take a look at what gnomefreak said in #ubuntu+1, that should explain it.
[06:43] <harisund> erUSUL Sorry I think I got disconnected. What do I do once I install Lyx? (sudo apt-get install lyx)
[06:43] <cybin> anymo: No. When gnome is starting up it starts a certain window manager. And I want to replace this window manager.
[06:43] <david__> Hi
[06:43] <igge> hello
[06:44] <cybin> anymo: I still want to have gnome but with kahakai for window management.
[06:44] <david__> when will ubuntu get gnome 12.4?
[06:44] <igge> what could I use to change the size of a partition?
[06:44] <apokryphos> gparted
[06:44] <PuMpErNiCkLe> david__: Dapper already has gnome 2.14, and teh official release will be June 1.
[06:44] <PuMpErNiCkLe> s/teh/the/
[06:44] <sophtpaw> PuMpErNiCkLe: yes, i noted that: it is being downloaded now (60%)
[06:44] <igge> apokryphos: I know but..
[06:44] <erUSUL> harisund yes it is a gui editor for latex. you need to intall the latex dist (tetex)
[06:44] <PuMpErNiCkLe> sophtpaw: cool :)
[06:45] <sophtpaw> : )
[06:45] <david__> oh so how do i get dapper?
[06:45] <anymo> cybin, I don't know but check the update-alternatives command.. I think it is the way to do it but I don't know exact parameter, I think it is something like x-window-manager
[06:45] <apokryphos> david__: /msg ubotu upgrade
[06:45] <david__> huh?
[06:45] <PuMpErNiCkLe> david__: You can either upgrade through apt, or download a preview release - Flight cd 6 is the latest, IIRC.
[06:45] <sophtpaw> UBUNTU ROCKS!
[06:45] <igge> apokryphos: I mean... I have my system running now.. and I can start gparted.. but my partition is already mounted...
[06:45] <david__> oh so flight cd is that kde's version of ubuntu?
[06:46] <anymo> cybin, type update-alternatives --help for basic syntax and find what are correct arguments to use with it.. that command is used for defining the default.. something (what you need)
[06:46] <ice> anyone know a good itunes subsitute for linux
[06:47] <ice> so I can listen to podcasts
[06:47] <david__> how do i upgrade from apt?
[06:47] <me2win> amaroK ftw
[06:47] <ice> sudo apt-get upgrade
[06:47] <Krhis> sudo apt-get update
[06:47] <erUSUL> ice, rhythmbox
[06:47] <anymo> cybin, today I used it to choose beetwen couple java versions, and some (long) time ago I know I used it on debian to switch beetwen kde and gnome...
[06:47] <ice> really
[06:47] <Krhis> Do those two in order.
[06:47] <ice> its works good
[06:47] <Krhis> ^^
[06:47] <me2win> ice: amarok
[06:47] <ice> k
[06:47] <ice> which is better
[06:47] <mephis1987_> !rmvb
[06:47] <ubotu> mephis1987_: parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:47] <ice> or doesn;t matter
[06:47] <me2win> ice: amarok
[06:47] <mephis1987_> !real
[06:47] <ubotu> Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, mephis1987_
[06:47] <igge> ah... i found a gparted LiveCD ...
[06:48] <mephis1987_> !real_player
[06:48] <ubotu> mephis1987_: Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:48] <anymo> ice, I'd say amarok too.. I like it a lot..
[06:48] <cruocitae> I've just installed Breezy with the option "server", since I want to customize it, I don't want all the bloat (I call it this way), like Gnome, and so. All I want is enlightenment, but I dunno how to get the X window system.. (XORG).. I mean, I know apt-get and everything, but when I do an apt-get install xorg.. blaah, it wants to d/l around 1 Gb.. Should I only get xorg-common?
[06:48] <me2win> ubotu: tell mephis1987_ about restricted
[06:48] <FAIKATA> help
[06:48] <ice> k thx guys
[06:48] <FAIKATA> where can I get printer drivers for linux
[06:48] <ice> can you subscribe using amarok too
[06:48] <ice> if so how ?
[06:49] <FAIKATA> for fujitsu dl 900
[06:50] <stjepan> hi
[06:50] <me2win> ice: if you open up amarok, on the left where it says playlists, click it, then right click on podcasts, hit add and enter the feed
[06:50] <stjepan> why are so many people switching from ubuntu to kubuntu?
[06:50] <me2win> stjepan: cuz KDE r0x
[06:50] <stjepan> me2win: why???
[06:50] <Sanne> cruocitae, you can search for packages and look at their contents and dependencies at packages.ubuntu.com
[06:51] <CNAP> anybody know of any cdburning software that will burn directly from mp3
[06:51] <anymo> me2win, it depends.. I've been using kde for quite a long time and I'm happier with gnome on ubunu now
[06:51] <ice> there is no podcast option ?
[06:51] <stjepan> anymo: why? what's so good in gnome? :
[06:51] <ice> on playlist
[06:51] <stjepan> :)
[06:51] <me2win> stjepan: alot of people like to be able to customize their environment in everyway, thats what KDE offers
[06:51] <stjepan> what about nautilus vs konqueror?
[06:51] <anymo> me2win, it simply fits for me better...
[06:51] <stjepan> and many apps are Qt apps
[06:52] <anymo> me2win, you're right there, kde is far more customizable but I like gnome simplicity...
[06:52] <Sanne> me2win, you don't actualy need to *switch*, because it's all Ubuntu, only with different desktops. I have apps from both gnome and kde under an xfce desktop.
[06:52] <CNAP> you can get Qt apps to run in GNOME. i have a few that are running right now
[06:52] <CNAP> so does anybody know of any cd burning software that will burn directly from mp3's to cd
[06:52] <anymo> nothing stops you to run kde apps under gnome too...
[06:52] <_Marek_> does anyone know how to change the resolution of the gdm login?
[06:52] <me2win> Sanne: well, I know that, but I thought he was asking about kde vs gnome
[06:52] <anymo> I have amarok which is kde under gnome...
[06:53] <me2win> ice: you dont have a podcast option?
[06:53] <ubuntu> hello i have a bit of a problem. i nedd to burn a install cd from the live aplication. witch program shell i use and where can i find it?
[06:53] <mephis1987_> is it ok to uninstall ubuntu desktop
[06:53] <ice> nope
[06:53] <ice> is it a plugin maybe
[06:53] <anymo> me2win, kde maybe looks better than gnome but gnome is really effective and usable
[06:53] <mephis1987_> i want to delete totem but it asks to delete ubuntu desktop
[06:53] <defcon8> yeah so do i
[06:53] <Sanne> me2win, oh sorry, I meant to address stjepan ...
[06:53] <me2win> anymo: kde is just as effective ans usable, just more customizable
[06:54] <defcon8> me2win, gnome is better
[06:54] <pedro> jelou
[06:54] <me2win> ice: are you looking in settings or are you looking under playlists?
[06:54] <anymo> me2win, so there is no need to fight over it... just use the one you like :)
[06:54] <stjepan> defcon8: why is it better for you?
[06:54] <stjepan> KDE is much more configurable, KDE apps are often much better than GTK apps...
[06:54] <defcon8> stjepan, why is it not better for you?
[06:54] <_Marek_> my gdm starts at 1280x1024 on a 15"crt monitor :/
[06:54] <me2win> anymo: i hate flame wars over KDE gnome, you use the one you like and thats pretty much it :D
[06:54] <stjepan> better KDE themes :)....
[06:54] <ice> playlist bro
[06:55] <anymo> me2win, just as I said :)
[06:55] <me2win> anymo: yep
[06:55] <ice> installing a plugin called ipodslave for amarok
[06:55] <anymo> me2win, no need to flame, actually I have dual boot ubuntu/gnome and suse/kde...
[06:55] <ice> maybe thats it
[06:55] <defcon8> stjepan, i thought you said that kde is bloaty and that themes are unneccesary
[06:55] <stjepan> isn't gnome going to die?
[06:55] <stjepan> kde will kill gnome :)
[06:55] <stjepan> qt is gaining popularity...
[06:55] <_Marek_> stjepan, you  wish
[06:55] <me2win> stjepan: kde4 will kill gnome :D
[06:55] <me2win> imhp
[06:55] <me2win> imho*
[06:56] <defcon8> well all be dead by the time kde4 gets released
[06:56] <stjepan> defcon8: ehmm... I am often saying what I don't think to see what are other people think about that
[06:56] <anymo> defcon8, good one :D
[06:56] <me2win> defcon8: i plan to live till 2007
[06:56] <defcon8> me2win, did you not read nostradamus?
[06:56] <defcon8> anymo, cheers
[06:56] <_Marek_> i'm not sure why people want one or another dekstop to disappear
[06:56] <Nokio> Hello, where i work we need to configure a special keyboard definition... and i was wondering how this could be done
[06:56] <mephis1987_> i want to delete totem but it asks to delete ubuntu desktop
[06:56] <_Marek_> i think its superb to have both on the scene
[06:56] <cybin> anymo: Yes, that took me a bit closer. I will have a look. Thank you.
[06:57] <mephis1987_> should i delete it ?
[06:57] <me2win> _Marek_: agreed
[06:57] <me2win> mephis1987_: how are you deleting it?
[06:57] <stjepan> mephis1987_: no, don't delete ubuntu-desktop
[06:58] <mephis1987_> me2win, synaptic
[06:58] <_Marek_> stjepan, and it's also not true that either all kde/qt apps or gnome/gtk apps are better, it really needs to be judged on an individual basis
[06:58] <anymo> I really liked kde and it's customisability... but after some time I realised that I don't need any of these little thingies that only drain your cpu
[06:58] <me2win> yeah
[06:58] <stjepan> btw, what theme do you use with KDE?
[06:58] <me2win> yeah to _Marek_ that is
[06:58] <ice> I use fluxbox
[06:58] <me2win> stjepan: i use alphacube
[06:58] <ice> very nice
[06:58] <ice> low resources
[06:59] <me2win> stjepan: but right now im using the compiz windec
[06:59] <me2win> cuz i have XGL running
[06:59] <stjepan> isn't ubuntu-desktop more ubuntish, more polished for ubuntu?
[06:59] <skpl> can someone please tell me what the command is to upgrade to dapper dan after replacing all instances of breezy in my sources.lst?
[06:59] <anymo> now I finde gnome extremely simple and useful.. I found nothing to complain about it and I definitely don't miss that extra high customizability
[06:59] <stjepan> me2win: really? what do u think about water effect?
[06:59] <ice> just do a
[06:59] <Sanne> isn't all this discussion about desktops more suited in #ubuntu-offtopic?
[06:59] <anymo> skpl, apt-get dist-upgrade
[06:59] <ice> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[07:00] <a4paper> I'm back again
[07:00] <anymo> skpl, as root ofcourse.. (sudo)
[07:00] <stjepan> Sanne: maybe, but I think that discussion is dead now :)
[07:00] <ice> becareful though
[07:00] <a4paper> I got Ubuntu working - it looks great
[07:00] <Sanne> stjepan, it is? Fine :)
[07:00] <a4paper> I have a couple of problems however - first does ubuntu have support for wireless network cards?
[07:01] <a4paper> I'm guessing yes
[07:01] <stjepan> me2win: water is one of the best compiz plugins for me, but it's too slow :(((
[07:01] <a4paper> I'll have to fiddle with the settings
[07:01] <ice> damn still no podcasts option
[07:01] <ice> hmm
[07:01] <ice> any clue
[07:02] <me2win> ice: shows up for me on the left under playlists
[07:02] <ice> what version do you have
[07:02] <me2win> do you have a playlists thingy on the left?
[07:02] <ice> yep
[07:02] <me2win> k click it
[07:02] <me2win> if there isnt a podcast folder
[07:02] <me2win> then click where it says Add
[07:02] <stjepan> think about that: you have baghira qt theme, very macish desktop, very much aquish... a lot of blue, a lot of water, water plugin is making waves on your desktop, waves in bacground with xwinwrap, kxdocker is zooming on your desktop.... mmmm :)
[07:02] <me2win> and has the down arrow
[07:02] <futzilogik> if both eth0 and eth1 are up, how can i set the default gateway to eth0? (the choice in network-admin is completely ignored)
[07:03] <Tsukihime> hey, if i install ubuntu on my pc and the give the HDD to a friend with ubuntu installed on my comp, will he have problems with the ubuntu in his house?
[07:03] <a4paper> As I'm on a laptop - I have one of these strange touchpad thingies - and I had the problem on Windows of editing the settings so that it wouldn't register clicks with the touchpad and only with the buttons - How do I change htis under Ubuntu?
[07:03] <ice> you mean under add media
[07:03] <me2win> ice what version do you have
[07:03] <anymo> ice, what amarok version do you have?
[07:03] <ice> one sec
[07:03] <skpl> can someone tell me how to change my splash screen at login?
[07:04] <ice> 1.3.9
[07:04] <anymo> than it should work
[07:04] <ice> maybe I should be in kde
[07:04] <ice> instead of fluxbox
[07:04] <ice> or doesn't it matter
[07:04] <anymo> ice, it works over here in gnome for me :)
[07:04] <ice> hmm
[07:05] <ice> is it another engine maybe
[07:05] <_kyle> Can anyone tell me how I can find the brand of my ethernet card in ubuntu and possibly the driver it is using?
[07:05] <ice> you have
[07:05] <anymo> ice, you go to playlist tab on left, and if you see that add button up there you can add podcasts through it
[07:05] <me2win> ice: you are clicking playlist on the left right, now on the context menu up top
[07:05] <ice> I see add media
[07:05] <me2win> not*
[07:05] <anymo> you should see ad and that little arrow
[07:05] <anymo> so you'll get dropdown menu clicking on it
[07:05] <Sanne> _kyle, you can get some info with 'lspci -v'
[07:06] <_kyle> Sanne, thanks.
[07:06] <stjepan> do you like osx-like menubar?
[07:06] <anymo> skpl, for that splash, open configuration editor
[07:06] <futzilogik> how can i set the default gateway to eth0, if both eth0 and eth1 are up and eth1 is used by default? (the choice in network-admin is completely ignored)

[07:08] <Psykus> me2win, what command is used for the console?
[07:08] <Sanne> _kyle, when you identified the chipset, you can search the list of currently loaded kernel meodules for something familiar with 'lsmod'
[07:08] <anymo> ice, at least you found it ^^
[07:08] <McLeod_> I got the player working, ubotu, although it still claims some mp3 files are not a proper media stream. But, better some then none, i guess :-)
[07:09] <a4paper> stjepan - can you help with my touchpad problem?
[07:09] <_kyle> Sanne, how can I access this list of loaded kernel modules?
[07:09] <johnny3d> Can someone help me get sound working on a breezy install?
[07:09] <stjepan> McLeod_: who are you talking to? :)
[07:09] <MisterN> _kyle: lsmod
[07:09] <anymo> skpl, found it?
[07:09] <Sanne> _kyle, type lsmod
[07:09] <stjepan> a4paper: I don't think so, I don't use any laptops... but ....
[07:09] <_kyle> Sanne, sorry if I dont know too much, third day with linux.  OK
[07:09] <gerhard_> how do I update my Gnome to 2.14?
[07:10] <McLeod_> i asked i question here and got a reply from ubotu  in my whisper??? stjepan

[07:10] <stjepan> McLeod_: ubotu is a bot :)
[07:10] <niklas> how do i log out from gnome to some non grafic console?
[07:10] <stjepan> a4paper: what touchpad is it?
[07:10] <McLeod_> i figured as much, so i got the reply through the bot?
[07:10] <MetaMorfoziS> niklas: sudo /etc/inti.d/gdm stop
[07:11] <me2win> Psykus: not sure
[07:11] <MetaMorfoziS> or ctrl alt f1...f8
[07:11] <stjepan> McLeod_: I don't know, it's a smart bot :)
[07:11] <Sanne> _kyle, no problem at all :). You can also search the startup system logfiles for your card, try typing 'dmesg | grep -i ethernet'
[07:11] <skpl> anymo, found it, thank you
[07:11] <McLeod_> lol
[07:11] <MetaMorfoziS> f7 is the  graphical screen
[07:11] <anymo> skpl, no problem, I've just changed mine two days ago, so it's still fresh to me ^^

[07:31] <Thafar> how can I check if my nvidia driver is installed correctly?
[07:31] <shedi> skpl, edit /etc/hostname
[07:31] <P__> roryy, thanks
[07:32] <skpl> shedi, when i tried that i got thsi error:
[07:32] <immolo> Can anyone tell me if the best way to install a custom kernel is to use a vanilla kernel or an ubuntu source one?
[07:32] <skpl> shedi, sudo: unable to lookup regulairty via gethostbyname()
[07:32] <stjepan> ScreaminIke: or rmdir
[07:32] <roryy> skpl: oops.  You need to update /etc/hosts too.  I suspect you'll need to boot into recovery mode now (sudo won't work anymore)
[07:32] <stjepan> !python
[07:32] <ubotu> stjepan: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:32] <shedi> skpl, echo "blablablab" > /etc/hostname
[07:32] <shedi> skpl, use sudo
[07:33] <erUSUL> immolo, the ubuntun one has many external drivers included if you need one of those use the ubuntu one if not you can safely use the vanilla (i'm using it myself)
[07:34] <immolo> erUSUL, well I like vanilla as it's more upto date but does usplash still work or does it need patching
[07:34] <skpl> roryy, really? so boot into recovery mode and do sudo nano /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname?
[07:34] <patrick52222> any readme's on how to gettvout workin on ubuntu
[07:34] <roryy> skpl: only if sudo isn't working
[07:34] <roryy> skpl: which it probably isn't if you edited hostname but not hosts
[07:35] <skpl> actually all i did so far was use the hostname command
[07:35] <ubuntu> whats default livecd root password?
[07:35] <skpl> roryy, sudo: unable to lookup regulairty via gethostbyname()
[07:35] <skpl>  does that mean sudo is not working?
[07:35] <roryy> skpl: yip
[07:35] <skpl> great
[07:35] <skpl> is this gonna screw up my system?
[07:35] <Thafar> wc
[07:35] <roryy> been there, done that ;)
[07:35] <mabus06> how do you setup a microphone?
[07:35] <noobie> hello
[07:35] <noobie> I'm having problems with the fglrx drivers
[07:35] <roryy> skpl: in fact, you can just boot into normal mode; your hostname will be restored
[07:35] <erUSUL> immolo, you need patching iirci
[07:36] <codecaine> anybody know how I can patch my madwifi so I can use aireplay?
[07:36] <stjepan> !microphone
[07:36] <ubotu> I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, stjepan
[07:36] <noobie> I've got them installed and I can run fgl_glxgears just fine
[07:36] <minimec> noobie: What problem?
[07:36] <noobie> however when I try to run glxgears
[07:36] <skpl> roryy, restored to what? what it was before i changed it using hostname command?
[07:36] <noobie> the system hard freezes
[07:36] <roryy> skpl: yip
[07:36] <patrick52222> any readme's on how to get tvout workin on ubuntu
[07:36] <roryy> skpl: the file /etc/hostname is used at boot to set the machine's hostname
[07:36] <noobie> and if I try any openGL games it says nosigal on my monitor or the monitor just goes black
[07:36] <blindx> How do I get to 1280*1024 screen resolution?
[07:36] <skpl> roryy, and then change bot /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts?
[07:36] <patrick52222> !tvout
[07:36] <ubotu> Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, patrick52222
[07:37] <erUSUL> !tell blindx about fixres
[07:37] <roryy> skpl: yes. I suggest either a persistent sudo shell ( 'sudo -i' ) or having two names in /etc/hosts (i.e., have both old and new name resolve to <IP_ADDRESS>)
[07:38] <inc|freaky> s there any password manager compatible with keepass password safe?
[07:38] <SirKillalot> how do I change the percentage value of a cenity --progress dialog?

[07:38] <skpl> roryy, i have no idea what you just said
[07:38] <mabus06> how come I can't capture audio from my microphone?
[07:38] <noobie> any ideas how it could be fixed?
[07:39] <roryy> skpl: basically, be careful ;).  It is easy to lock yourself out of sudo doing this
[07:39] <stamen81> I have a question again:)
[07:39] <skpl> roryy, doing what? im simply going to wait for my dist-upgrade to finish then retsrat my computer and hope it works like you said it would
[07:39] <patrick52222> how do i enable tv out on a nvidia graphic card on linux ubuntu, anyone as i want to test my projector out
[07:39] <ubuntu> does any1 know of a program for ubuntu in which i can recover partitions?
[07:39] <noobie> patrick52222:  install nvidia-settings
[07:39] <stamen81> haow can I make my pc to change the MAC adress of my eht0
[07:39] <roryy> skpl: i thought you wanted to change your hostname; if not, never mind
[07:39] <Yan^> hello people, I have just installed ubuntu 5.10, there is a surprising thing: he never asked me to choose the root password. Is this normal??
[07:40] <patrick52222> noobie: i have
[07:40] <noobie> patrick52222:  then in there there should be a TV out section
[07:40] <stamen81> and this must be at the boot time
[07:40] <skpl> roryy, i do want to change it, by editing both /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts
[07:40] <roryy> !tell Yan^ about rootsudo
[07:40] <skpl> roryy, that should not be too risky, right?
[07:40] <noobie> also my fglrx-control returns command not found :(
[07:40] <erUSUL> !tell Yan^ about root
[07:41] <CNAP> any suggestions for cd burning software that can burn directly from an mp3 to cd
[07:41] <skpl> gnomebaker
[07:41] <stjepan> can I change language for ALL apps?
[07:41] <skpl> or not
[07:41] <roryy> skpl: it's not really risky (after all, you can always boot into recovery mode to fix it), but it's easy to get wrong
[07:41] <skpl> i dont care
[07:41] <skpl> roryy, is it possible to irc in recovery mode?
[07:41] <CNAP> nope gnomebaker doesn't burn straight from mp3
[07:41] <skpl> roryy, that is all i want to know, so i can come here for help if i do screw it up
[07:41] <minimec> rick52222:  install nvidia-settings
[07:41] <minimec> 19:41 <stamen81> haow can I make my pc to change the MAC adress of my eht0
[07:41] <minimec> 19:41 <roryy> skpl: i thought you wanted to change your hostname; if not, never mind
[07:42] <roryy> skpl: i don't know. i don't think it's recommended to irc as root ;)
[07:42] <stamen81> minimec,  yes this is the question
[07:42] <skpl> no, i do not suppose so
[07:42] <skpl> i can always boot into xp if something goes terribly wrong though
[07:42] <stamen81> minimec,  a script which mak the changes
[07:43] <Yan^> roryy, erUSUL: many thanks for the info. This is very surprising!! never seen a Linux distro like that. why is it so??
[07:43] <minimec> stamen81: sorry. This was completly accidental ;)
[07:43] <stamen81> I want to make it to change the phisical address of my ethernet card
[07:43] <stamen81> without me
[07:43] <erUSUL> Yan^, better security i guess
[07:43] <curuptura> hi channel
[07:43] <stamen81> minimec,  so dou know something for this
[07:43] <stamen81> minimec,  ideas
[07:43] <stamen81> minimec,  ?:)
[07:44] <stjepan> can I apply a language for all apps?
[07:44] <minimec> stamen81: it's like you highlight some accidently and press the paste button.
[07:44] <stamen81> minimec,  :)
[07:44] <stamen81> minimec,  ok
[07:44] <roryy> skpl: basically, use 'sudo -i' so you can lose root, in at least one shell; then, no matter what happens, you can fix it without rebooting
[07:44] <roryy> skpl: i mean, *can't* lose root
[07:44] <minimec> anyway, why do you want to change the MAC Adress of eth0?
[07:44] <Yan^> erUSUL: well i tried just to type "apt-get install [smth] " and he said you are not a root. Do u mean  these things can be handled through sudo?
[07:45] <minimec> stamen81: anyway, why do you want to change the MAC Adress of eth0?
[07:45] <skpl> roryy, so using sudo -i i can change my hostname by editing .etc.hosts and /etc/hostname without rebooting?
[07:45] <erUSUL> Yan^, yes type sudo apt-get .... and you are done
[07:45] <Yan^> erUSUL thanx ;)
[07:45] <stamen81> because I want and I need to do this
[07:45] <Stephanosky> hi all
[07:45] <curuptura> ppl i have a very strange problem
[07:46] <curuptura> my dns # changed to <IP_ADDRESS> every 10 min.
[07:46] <curuptura> and i have to change it back
[07:46] <skpl> call your service provider and ask them
[07:46] <stjepan> for what apps I can't change lang in Ubuntu?
[07:46] <skpl> probably get more help from techsupport
[07:46] <curuptura> u think so ?
[07:46] <skpl> definately.
[07:46] <noobie> is there anything I need to install to get fglrx-control to work?
[07:46] <skpl> s'what i do deweduh
[07:47] <curuptura> cant i protect the resolv.confg against changing ?
[07:47] <erUSUL> noobie, if it is apt should have installed it for you
[07:47] <curuptura> i tryed to make it read only , i did but it changed again
[07:47] <erUSUL> curuptura, no
[07:47] <curuptura> i see
[07:47] <noobie> erUSUL:  I installed it but when i type fglrx-control in a terminal to open it I get fglrx-control: command not found
[07:47] <skpl> roryy, so using sudo -i i can change my hostname by editing .etc.hosts and /etc/hostname without rebooting?
[07:48] <erUSUL> curuptura, it says it clearly in the begining of the file
[07:48] <minimec> stamen81: ok. Try this... ifconfig eth0 ether hw xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
[07:48] <stjepan> how do you pronounce "FAQ"? :))))))
[07:48] <stamen81> I know this
[07:48] <gooddoggytreat> "Ef Aye Cue"
[07:48] <wvelez> Hi...how do I check the checksum of dapperdrakes iso? thanks
[07:48] <roryy> skpl: 'sudo -i' gives you a persistent root shell; as opposed to, say, 'sudo nano /etc/hosts', where, once nano finishes, you lose root privileges
[07:48] <erUSUL> curuptura, man resolv.conf (yes there are man pages for conf files ;))
[07:48] <roryy> hrm
[07:48] <roryy> nm
[07:48] <stamen81> minimec, but after reboot I must write this again

[07:50] <erUSUL> P__, dpkg -i *.deb (are you sure you can not install it through apt?)
[07:50] <minimec> stamen81: make a simple script and load it in the boot-process. Ypu could even load it with gnome.
[07:50] <stamen81> sudo dpkg -i -> this is the same
[07:50] <stjepan> P__: or sudo dpkg -i <pkg name>

[07:52] <noobie> _harm:  yes and no, depends on what your trying to do...
[07:52] <minimec> stamen81: The script must start with the first line #!/bin/bash
[07:52] <noobie> _harm:  what are you looking to do with it?
[07:53] <erUSUL> P__, sudo apt-get install libncurses5

[07:53] <ice> elder scrolls IV
[07:53] <minimec> stamen81: third line is #END
[07:53] <noobie> _harm:  most games work fine on regular old wine
[07:53] <_harm> noobie i just wanne play cs.. but right now i can get it to work via WINE but it freezes up for 20seconds @ random
[07:53] <stjepan> noobie: but not directx games
[07:53] <minimec> stamen81: save that and make it executable.
[07:53] <noobie> _harm:  what wine version?

[07:54] <stjepan> gooddoggytreat: not true ;)
[07:54] <harisund> Can someone explain how the process "gnome-pty-helper" help me in anyway? I seem to have 40 processes with the same name

[07:54] <_harm> stjepan CS = counterstrike CZ= CounterStrike condition Zero CS;S CounterStrike Source
[07:54] <gooddoggytreat> stjepan: it does have a cooler logo, though.
[07:54] <noobie> _harm:  I remember it being somthing to do with steam having issues with any kernel 2.6 series that is before 2.6.15
[07:54] <_harm> noobie i have ubuntu 5.10
[07:54] <stamen81> minimec, where to put it
[07:54] <stjepan> gooddoggytreat: but not "just"
[07:54] <harisund> Nobody seems to have solved it in the forums as well
[07:54] <erUSUL> P__, you shuld not mix debian and ubuntu deb they are not compatible
[07:55] <CNAP> what can i use to decompress a RAR file?
[07:55] <AndyC> Hey. Can anyone help with getting a patch working for DigiKam?
[07:55] <_harm> CNAP unrar
[07:55] <stamen81> minimec, where to put the script
[07:55] <P__> erUSUL, oh ok, where should I find it please ?
[07:55] <noobie> _harm:  once dapper is out it will solve the problem, or rather it should.  Unless you'd like to compile a new kernel
[07:55] <_harm> noobie lets say ur name aplies to me not you ;) i guees ill wait june right?
[07:55] <noobie> _harm:  would be easiest :)
[07:56] <erUSUL> P__,  without net connection it may be dificult ;)
[07:56] <Amir_U> A begginers question: How do I switch between languages? I do not want to change the user interface, but only to write in a different language. I had installed all the neccessary packages using the Language Selector.
[07:56] <_harm> noobie do u also know if dapper comes with GLX?
[07:56] <stjepan> _harm: why not use dapper flight? :)
[07:56] <noobie> _harm:  do you have a working fglrx-control?
[07:56] <FlannelKing> _harm: if you're using english and stuff, you should be able to switch april 20, when dapper goes beta.
[07:56] <stjepan> _harm: you mean XGL?
[07:56] <_harm> stjepan cuz if things break i wouldnt know what to do :P
[07:56] <P__> erUSUL, yes I have an usb key. I need to compile a 2.6.16 to get network
[07:56] <AndyC> Hello?!
[07:56] <noobie> _harm:  I've been using dapper since flight 4 and not much has broken :)
[07:56] <stjepan> _harm: I'm 99% sure things won't break
[07:56] <_harm> noobie i think i did that ... didnt help much exept now when i wine CS its runs in Software mode and not OpenGL
[07:57] <noobie> _harm:  whats the output of flgrxinfo?
[07:57] <_harm> FlannelKing ah then i suppose i shall the 20th
[07:57] <minimec> stamen81 Hmm... Save it in /usr/local/bin That should do.
[07:57] <stjepan> AndyC: tell us what's your problem exactly and you'll get help... try to do it yourself first
[07:57] <_harm> noobie let me get that for u
[07:57] <AndyNeedsHelp> hello?
[07:57] <harisund> Has anybody seen the number of processes running on their system, and got stunned by the amount of gnome-pty-helpers around?
[07:58] <swab79> AndyNeedsHelp: Hello
[07:58] <_harm> noobie bash: flgrxinfo: command not found
[07:58] <stjepan> AndyNeedsHelp: tell us what's your problem exactly and you'll get help... try to do it yourself first
[07:58] <noobie> _harm:  it seems your fglrx driver is not properly installed then?
[07:58] <AndyNeedsHelp> swab79: Have you ever come across imageprinter.cpp
[07:58] <_harm> stjepan and noobie ill switch to dapper soon but patience is a virtue
[07:58] <AndyNeedsHelp> ?
[07:58] <erUSUL> P__, http://packages.ubuntu.com/breezy/base/libncurses5
[07:58] <CNAP> _harm: mucho gracias
[07:58] <_harm> noobie so its seem =[ ill look at it tonight
[07:58] <_harm> CNAP no problem
[07:58] <ware> anyone want to help me with an ISA firewall problem?
[07:59] <noobie> _harm:  I'm also having problems with my fglrx drivers
[07:59] <ware> I cant seem to get synaptic to update repositories
[07:59] <Amir_U> How do I get someone's attention on this channel?
[07:59] <swab79> AndyNeedsHelp: No, sorry... what is it that you are trying to do?
[07:59] <minimec> stamen81: Stop all that. I am a complete geek. :) We will do it the right way ;)
[07:59] <noobie> _harm:  oops!! typo
[07:59] <skpl> is it possible to have both gnome and kde installed and switch between them?
[07:59] <FlannelKing> Amir_U: just ask the question.
[07:59] <noobie> _harm: it should be fglrxinfo
[07:59] <_harm> noobie arnt we all.. ubuntu should like make it work from teh start :P but i suppose universality goes above performance
[07:59] <gerhard_> yes skpl
[07:59] <stamen81> minimec, ok
[08:00] <skpl> gerhard_, can you tell me how?
[08:00] <stamen81> minimec, tell me what to do
[08:00] <noobie> _harm:  try fglrxinfo
[08:00] <eedge> I have a working set of ndiswrapper drivers for my card, and have installed them correctly everything seems fine the light are on etc, but I am getting no scan results.
[08:00] <stamen81> minimec, :)
[08:00] <ware> anyone want to help me with an ISA firewall problem? Synaptic Pacakge Management cant seem to see teh repositories thru the firewall
[08:00] <eedge> and I'm stumped at what to do next, any ideas?
[08:00] <Amir_U> well, I did. About switching between languages...
[08:00] <gerhard_> er
[08:00] <AndyNeedsHelp> stjephan & swab79 : I have spent a while on this problem now, its the only annoyance on my system! I am trying to speed up the printing from Digikam. It takes up to 20 minutes to print a decent photo. I have found a patch which is meant to make the printing more intelligent but cant work out where the file is that I need to apply the patch to!
[08:00] <gerhard_> what are you running now? skpl
[08:00] <minimec> stamen81: sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces
[08:00] <FlannelKing> _harm: if ATI would release hardware specs, it'd be easy.  Problem is we're having to reverse engineer the drivers.
[08:00] <_harm> noobie http://pastebin.com/656090
[08:00] <skpl> gerhard_, gnome
[08:00] <FlannelKing> Amir_U: then no one must have seen you.  What's the question?
[08:01] <noobie> _harm:   yes it appears your fglrx driver isn't fully / properly installed :-(
[08:01] <_harm> FlannelKing dont get me wrong i have mad respect for everything people do but i just think it would have been nice :)
[08:01] <swab79> AndyNeedsHelp: Sorry can't help... no idea
[08:01] <stjepan> AndyNeedsHelp: have you downloaded sources?
[08:01] <stamen81> minimec, and...
[08:01] <noobie> _harm:  it should say ATI instead of Mesa
[08:01] <_harm> noobie thats a pitty.. ill look into it tonight i have to see a friend of mine.. WHY ARE WOMAN SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND
[08:01] <gerhard_> skpl, then you can run Synaptic, choose KDE and install it
[08:01] <FlannelKing> _harm: you really should complain to ATI, since nvidia has tons fewer problems, as they properly support linux.
[08:01] <_harm> FlannelKing ill write a letter
[08:02] <ware> anyone want to help me with an ISA firewall problem? Synaptic Pacakge Management cant seem to see teh repositories thru the firewall
[08:02] <_harm> and noobie and everyone else thanks for the help!
[08:02] <eedge> ubuntu tried to install drivers for it, they didn't work
[08:02] <FlannelKing> _harm: good man.
[08:02] <eedge> is it possible they're still active.
[08:02] <noobie> _harm:   no problem :)
[08:02] <gerhard_> skpl, when you then have the logon screen of Ubuntu, click on "Session" and you can choose between GNOME or KDE
[08:02] <eedge> and stopping ndiswrapper working
[08:02] <minimec> stamen81: go to the line 'iface eth0 ...'
[08:02] <_harm> talk to you all later Respect
[08:02] <stjepan> _harm: for me ati radeon 9600 works perfectly
[08:02] <stamen81> minimec, and...
[08:02] <AndyNeedsHelp> stjpean: It was installed from synaptic (version 0.8.1). I think I see where you are going though if I download the source I should be able to find the file if its part of that program and patch it there? I wasnt sure is imageprint.cpp was a system file or part of Digikam
[08:02] <skpl> gerhard_, thats it?
[08:02] <minimec> stamen81: there you find the params for the iface eth0
[08:02] <gerhard_> i think so
[08:02] <stamen81> minimec, yes.. :)
[08:02] <P__> erUSUL, ok well i installed it, and the requiered deps. Now when i do make menuconfig I have some errors
[08:02] <noobie> I'm having problems with openGL
[08:03] <jean> can anyone tell me why scanimage -L finds my scanner but xsane cannot?
[08:03] <stjepan> AndyNeedsHelp: download sources and then patch it
[08:03] <eedge> ubuntu tried to install drivers for it, they didn't work.... is it possible they're still active and interfering with ndiswrapper?
[08:03] <noobie> I've installed the fglrx drivers but the screen just goes black in every opengl game...
[08:03] <ware> anyone want to help me with an ISA firewall problem? Synaptic Pacakge Management cant seem to see teh repositories thru the firewall
[08:03] <eedge> because ndiswrapper is showing the all clear?
[08:03] <stjepan> AndyNeedsHelp, but first remove it with synaptic
[08:03] <stjepan> noobie: what about fglrxinfo?
[08:03] <minimec> try to add the line ifconfig eth0 ether hw xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
[08:03] <AndyNeedsHelp> stjephan: thanks, I hadnt thought of that.  I will see how I get on with it.
[08:03] <noobie> stjepan:  it shows ATI and all that
[08:04] <P__> it says my display is too small to run menuconfig :)
[08:04] <minimec> stamen81: try to add the line ifconfig eth0 ether hw xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
[08:04] <Amir_U> FlannelKing: How do I switch between languages? I do not want to change the user interface, but only to write in a different language. I had installed all the neccessary packages using the Language Selector.
[08:04] <stamen81> minimec, ok
[08:04] <Obst> Hi
[08:04] <stjepan> AndyNeedsHelp: after patching you must compile it and install (from source!), of course
[08:04] <noobie> stjepan:  fgl_glxgears works, however regular glxgears does not. It locks up and the screen goes black
[08:04] <slavik> Amir_U: right click on a toolbar and select add to toolbar
[08:04] <skpl> gerhard_, how sure are you?
[08:04] <FlannelKing> Amir_U: ah.  I don't know. sorry.
[08:04] <slavik> oops, panel
[08:04] <skpl> does anyone esle have an opinion on that?
[08:04] <gerhard_> er for me it works as i told you
[08:04] <stjepan> noobie: fgl_glxgears work perfectlly?
[08:05] <stjepan> noobie: and glxgears doesn't?
[08:05] <noobie> stjepan:  yes fgl_glxgears works perfectly
[08:05] <skpl> can someone tell me how to add a trashcan launcher to the desktop?
[08:05] <AndyNeedsHelp> stjepan: I should be able to do that! I really don't know why it didnt occur to do that.
[08:05] <noobie> stjepan:  yeah
[08:05] <minimec> stamen81: I did something similar once, when I added specific nameservers.
[08:05] <eedge> ubuntu tried to install drivers for it, they didn't work.... is it possible they're still active and interfering with ndiswrapper? because ndiswrapper is showing the all clear..
[08:05] <stamen81> minimec, I did it, I will reboot now to see what happend
[08:05] <Amir_U> slavik: thanks! I shall try.
[08:05] <Obst> Can i download the ubuntu / files anywhere?
[08:05] <noobie> stjepan:  also fglrx-control doesn't work it gives command not found..
[08:05] <stjepan> noobie: and what do you want to do? you can't play some games or what?
[08:05] <slavik> then scroll down to the utilities section and add the keyboard indicator
[08:05] <eedge> I'm not sure what to do, because its a pretty rare card.
[08:05] <eedge> aka zero google results.
[08:05] <stamen81> minimec, and will tell you
[08:05] <Obst> i want to chroot ubuntu on my vserv
[08:05] <minimec> stamen81: Yeah. Let's hope for the best ;-)
[08:05] <slavik> then you can click on it and add kb layouts and such
[08:05] <noobie> stjepan:  I cannot play any games because of this.
[08:05] <stamen81> minimec, :)
[08:05] <eedge> will 3, from the manufactuerer.
[08:05] <Rug> Howdy all
[08:05] <stamen81> minimec, thank for now
[08:06] <stjepan> noobie: what about reinstalling it?
[08:06] <noobie> stjepan:  have done so already
[08:06] <noobie> stjepan:  I've tried both dapper and breezy
[08:06] <skpl> can someone tell me how to add a trashcan launcher to the desktop?
[08:06] <stjepan> noobie: I think fglrx-control may be somwhere in /opt/something/bin/
[08:06] <jean> has anyone got lexmark scanners working with xsane?
[08:06] <gooddoggytreat> I need some help with booting into my Ubuntu installation using my AGP card. Whenever I use internal VGA it works fine, but when I boot with my AGP card, I get a kernel panic at boot up at 'Starting hotplug subsystem'. The same thing happens to me in Dapper. Can anyone help? It's an NVIDIA GeForce 4400 card.
[08:06] <eedge> Ok, lemmy ask a simplier question - maybe someone will actually answer.... lol
[08:07] <eedge> how do I narrow modprobe -l
[08:07] <stjepan> noobie: what games have you tried?
[08:07] <eedge> I only want to see wireless related stuff.
[08:07] <slavik> skpl: just make a shortcut to ~/.Trash
[08:07] <P__> what kind of processor is a centrino, an i386 or i686 ? (don't laugh)
[08:07] <noobie> stjepan:  I've tried counter-strike, and wolfenstine
[08:07] <FliesLikeALap> P__  686
[08:07] <erUSUL> P__, i686
[08:07] <P__> FliesLikeABrick, thanks !
[08:07] <slavik> P__: centrino is not a processor
[08:07] <skpl> slavik, shortcut? how do i do that?
[08:07] <eedge> how do I narrow modprobe -l I only want to see wireless related things.
[08:08] <slavik> skpl: open your home dir
[08:08] <ware> anyone want to help me with an ISA firewall problem? Synaptic Pacakge Management cant seem to see the repositories thru the firewall
[08:08] <slavik> then press ctrl+H
[08:08] <stjepan> noobie: what about using LD_PRELOAD or LD_LIBRARY_PATH?
[08:08] <skpl> slavik, ok
[08:08] <skpl> than what
[08:08] <ware> anyone want to help me with an ISA firewall problem? Synaptic Pacakge Management cant seem to see the repositories thru the firewall, i just need to get my box updated
[08:08] <noobie> stjepan:  not sure exactly how to use thoes?
[08:08] <Mortuis> Okay, stupid question time.  If I did an "apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.12-10-386", and realized I should have done "sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.12-10-686", should I/is there a way to uninstall the 386 headers before installing the 686 headers, or should I just go ahead and install the 686 headers and not worry about the 386 headers sitting there?
[08:08] <eedge> anyone?
[08:08] <slavik> actually, foget that
[08:08] <eedge> absolutely anyone...
[08:08] <ware> eedge: haha i feel ya
[08:08] <skpl> ok
[08:08] <skpl> forgotten
[08:09] <slavik> right click on desktop and select create launcher
[08:09] <stjepan> noobie: for example: LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/blah/blah/path/to/ati/libs/libGL.so.1.2 wolfenstein
[08:09] <ware> anyone want to help me with an ISA firewall problem? Synaptic Pacakge Management cant seem to see the repositories thru the firewall, i just need to get my box updated
[08:09] <slavik> then in command, you want "nautilus ~/.Trash"
[08:09] <noobie> stjepan:  haven't tried that yet.
[08:09] <stjepan> noobie: or: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/blah/blah/path/to/ati/libs/ wolfenstein
[08:09] <slavik> without quotes
[08:09] <stjepan> noobie: then try it
[08:10] <stjepan> noobie: that's my last idea, try it, I have no more ideas, sorry
[08:10] <stjepan> bbl
[08:10] <eedge> ware: I think we might be invisible... I say we abuse this power whilst we have it, call people names and such ;) lol
[08:10] <blindx> Anyone familiar with the program DVD Shrink for windows?
[08:10] <skpl> slavik, is'nt there a way to do this using the gconf-editor?
[08:10] <noobie> stjepan:  thanks for the help I'll go give it a try
[08:10] <slavik> skpl: no clue

[08:14] <bartekWeyd> hej
[08:14] <N2DIY> ware, your better off doing a google search, I found my mouse problem is a year old bug that way.
[08:14] <slavik> or pipe it into less so you can scroll and such
[08:14] <eedge> I thought a grep thingy would be logical.
[08:14] <Seveas> ware, please behave in here or leave
[08:14] <Seveas> !tell ware about attitude
[08:14] <eedge> but I have no idea what to put in.

[08:15] <skpl> slavik, there is just a 'remove' button thats all
[08:15] <eedge> slavik, I guessed a grep thingy would be logical (nicely put there) but I' have no idea what to pipe in
[08:16] <slavik> eedge: output of lspci or whatever you need
[08:16] <CosmoDad> jenda: out of curiosity (because I don't owe free time), what would that be?
[08:16] <eedge> oh ok :) I'll try it
[08:16] <CosmoDad> own even
[08:16] <slavik> skpl: are you in ubuntu?
[08:16] <CarlFK> blindx: it is Open Source and active...  http://www.shrinkto5.com/

[08:16] <CarlFK> blindx: I admit I have not even tried it yet - just saw it last week
[08:17] <slavik> cosmic_: you are missing a library
[08:17] <Amir_U> slavik: I added the keyboard indicator.   I am following a howto and did the wrong step for my chipset.
[08:17] <slavik> yes, correct one
[08:17] <cosmic_> which one @ slavik ??
[08:17] <wogi> Good day, Ubuntuers..
[08:17] <skpl> slavik, YES
[08:17] <skpl> what else?
[08:17] <slavik> when you click on it, you can open the properties
[08:17] <jenda> ware: you need to ask, otherwise, no answer...
[08:17] <CosmoDad> !tell ware about ask
[08:17] <ware> jenda: i did ask, i got banned by a jew
[08:17] <slavik> cosmic_: what am I helping you with?
[08:17] <wogi> Is anyone successfully using Evolution 2.4 (the one that comes with breezy) to connect to an Exchange server?
[08:18] <ware> jenda: i need help with synaptic updating repositories through and ISA 2004 firewall
[08:18] <tonyyarusso> Uh oh.  I broke X.  :(
[08:18] <CosmoDad> jenda: ok thanks
[08:18] <slavik> Amir_U: in the options, you can add layouts there and such, explore the properties a bit, you'll find it
[08:18] <ware> jenda: but all the linux know it alls would rather ban me then give me help
[08:18] <jenda> ware: you gotta be kidding!
[08:18] <ware> jenda: no
[08:18] <ware> ?
[08:18] <erUSUL> Mortuis, headers are source code they do not change with processor type
[08:18] <slavik> ware: there is no such thing as a "linux know it all"
[08:18] <cosmic_> sorry my english issent the best - please try the last sentence in other words ? @ slavik ?
[08:19] <wogi> If I uninstall evolution and evolution-exchaneg, and then reinstall them (with apt-get), I can connect 1 time with no problems to the exchange server and do calandering/email. Yay.  But as soon as I close the application and try to open it again, it gives all kinds of strange errors.  So far the only way I've found to get back in it is to reinstall. :P
[08:19] <CosmoDad> ware: if you had asked politely you'd be given answers possibly
[08:19] <jenda> ware: OK, what do you need, let's get this over with.
[08:19] <ware> ware: im not here to bitch and argue, im here to see if anyone here has any idea on howto authenticate with and ISA firewall
[08:19] <ware> with active directory
[08:19] <ware> via ubuntu
[08:19] <slavik> cosmic_: am I helping with something? (I am having a hard time keeping track of who I tell what).
[08:19] <Mortuis> erUSUL: So linux-headers-2.6.12-10-386 and linux-headers-2.6.12-10-686 will have the same information?
[08:19] <slavik> ware: obviously not, have you tried posting to the forums?
[08:19] <InnerFIRE> !libavcodec2
[08:19] <ubotu> No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, InnerFIRE
[08:19] <eedge> slavik, I tried modprobe -l | grep acx (its a acx 111 ti card, its in lspci) no results...
[08:20] <ware> slavik: no i have not
[08:20] <slavik> eedge: pipe the output into less instead of grep
[08:20] <slavik> ware: you should try it ...
[08:20] <slavik> give wiki a try, maybe it has something
[08:20] <ware> slavik: yeah since you niggers cant help with shit.  thanks anyways
[08:21] <slavik> he deserves to use windows the rest of his life
[08:21] <eedge> hahaha
[08:21] <Mortuis> heh
[08:21] <jenda> slavik: indeed. I was just going to ask Seveas for ops for a while so that he could be banned by another jew :-D (not that I believe I'd get them) :)
[08:21] <erUSUL> Mortuis, yes it should
[08:21] <eedge> correction, he deserves to use windows 98 for the rest of his life.
[08:21] <skpl> he deserves to find a bug inside his colon
[08:22] <skpl> BUGS
[08:22] <skpl> ANUS
[08:22] <skpl> EW
[08:22] <skpl> hehe.
[08:22] <slavik> flood
[08:22] <wogi> Soo busy. :)
[08:22] <erUSUL> ware, edit a file named /etc/apt/apt.conf and add a line like   http_proxy="http://user:pass@firewall:port/"
[08:22] <slavik> I'll be back in a few
[08:22] <slavik> erUSUL: you're late, rofl
[08:22] <Mortuis> erUSUL: Interesting, for the sake of paranoia, is there a way I can remove linux-headers-2.6.12-10-386?
[08:22] <wogi> Oh, I'll try the evolution channel maybe :)
[08:23] <Seveas> ok, apparently I can't leave you kids alone
[08:23] <eedge> slavik, tried less to the same results
[08:23] <slavik> Mortuis: apt-get remove
[08:23] <lemat> hello
[08:23] <Mortuis> slavik: thanks
[08:23] <slavik> eedge: you are not getting any output?
[08:23] <slavik> did you try sudo in front?
[08:23] <lemat> for what?
[08:23] <slavik> are you doing lsmod orlspci?
[08:23] <tonyyarusso> I might cry.  I like my X...
[08:24] <slavik> hey tonyyarusso
[08:24] <tonyyarusso> slavik: Hey.
[08:24] <slavik> I'll be back in like 30min, if I am helping you but managed to confuse you, send me a PM ...
[08:24] <eedge> slavik, opps had typed lesss three times.
[08:24] <eedge> haha
[08:25] <blake_ubuntu> hello
[08:25] <wsjunior> hello guys, i've installed kubuntu-desktop on my ubuntu and now i want to remove it but when i try to remove kubuntu-desktop only the metapackage is removed.. how to remove all kde apps installed with kubunut-desktop?
[08:26] <blake_ubuntu> sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop ?
[08:26] <Seveas> wsjunior, debfoster to the rescue
[08:26] <Rudemeister> sudo apt-get remove ubuntu
[08:26] <Seveas> wsjunior, install kubuntu-desktop again and let debfoster prune it
[08:26] <blake_ubuntu> remove ubuntu?
[08:26] <wogi> So, no evolution users about? :/
[08:26] <Rudemeister> merely a joke
[08:26] <wsjunior> debfoster?
[08:26] <blake_ubuntu> wsjunior, do what i said
[08:27] <blake_ubuntu> sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop
[08:27] <eedge> gah
[08:27] <wsjunior> i did
[08:27] <blake_ubuntu> and?
[08:27] <eedge> wireless cards are evil.
[08:27] <wsjunior> but only the metapackage is removed
[08:27] <eedge> :)
[08:27] <blake_ubuntu> why do you want to delete it?
[08:27] <blake_ubuntu> taking up too much disk space?
[08:28] <wsjunior> blake_ubuntu, it messed up the gnome menu and artwork
[08:28] <FlannelKing> oh, what a handy package.
[08:28] <eedge> gah, how do you un-modprobe things?
[08:28] <fraxtal> hey guys
[08:28] <eedge> thats a really stupid thing to say isn't it.. but yeah
[08:29] <Seveas> eedge, modprobe -r
[08:29] <eedge> thanks :)
[08:29] <FlannelKing> wsjunior: you'll want to use debfoster, just like Seveas said.
[08:29] <wsjunior> Seveas, what is this debfoster?
[08:29] <Seveas> wsjunior, install it and read its manpage - seriously, do that and you'll love it
[08:29] <eedge> still not getting any scan results
[08:29] <eedge> be back later.
[08:29] <jean> is there another graphical front end for scanners other than xsane?
[08:29] <blake_ubuntu> apt-get --purge remove libartsc0
[08:30] <EnterUserName> is there a Kde Printers equivalant for ubuntu
[08:30] <tonyyarusso> Not to self: Must learn to label xorg.conf backups better.
[08:30] <EnterUserName> the Gnomes printing utility sucks
[08:30] <tonyyarusso> I got into X, but this is the one that can't do console switching :(
[08:30] <EnterUserName> Kde's printers is far better
[08:31] <EnterUserName> Is there a way i can use KDE's printing utility with UBuntus gnome?
[08:31] <blake_ubuntu> EnterUserName, whys that?
[08:31] <skpl> how can i tell which version of kde i am using?
[08:32] <EnterUserName> Well, KDE's printing utility scans the ports for available printers
[08:32] <EnterUserName> and automatically see's the correct printer
[08:32] <EnterUserName> for cups client printers
[08:32] <EnterUserName> with gnome i have to edit the url and type the whole one in directly
[08:32] <EnterUserName> well the default one that comes with ubuntu
[08:32] <blake_ubuntu> EnterUserName, is the printer on the network?
[08:32] <EnterUserName> Yes.
[08:33] <piggah> 'lo everyone
[08:33] <blake_ubuntu> EnterUserName, and you have kde installed?
[08:34] <EnterUserName> Blake: I used KDE's utility to add printers and kde is fine finding the printer its just point and click
[08:34] <EnterUserName> but Gnomes version of the printing utility I have not been able to do that
[08:34] <EnterUserName> and one of my work places is switching to gnome and this is the downfall
[08:34] <Amir_U> slavik: thanks!!! I managed to switch to Japanese. I don't speak myself but had done it for a friend... she will be gratefull to you.
[08:34] <EnterUserName> I can set it up but i need something simpler for the users
[08:35] <blake_ubuntu> ic
[08:35] <blake_ubuntu> 1 sec
[08:35] <FlannelKing> Amir_U: there will be even better support in dapper for asian langs
[08:35] <skpl> how can i tell which version of kde i am using?
[08:37] <blake_ubuntu> EnterUserName, cant you just type kprinter while in gnome?
[08:38] <EnterUserName> blake_ubuntu: I'll give it a try. I gotta figure out what package it is. I'm guessing you'll require qt libraries
[08:38] <EnterUserName> so kde appliatiosn will work with gnome?
[08:39] <kbrooks> EnterUserName: yes
[08:39] <blake_ubuntu> EnterUserName, yes
[08:39] <cochondo_fr> hello everyone, this is not a Ubuntu question, but I need someone's help to write me resume in english. I'd be glad if I could find someone to help me.
[08:40] <blake_ubuntu> To check the version open the K menu. You should have there the KDE Control Center or About KDE. Start it to check the KDE version.
[08:41] <skpl> does anyone know anything of the diskmounter script that allows me to put my windows partitions on the desktop?

[08:45] <Grymling> #ubunto
[08:45] <Tailsfan> !ubotu monitors
[08:45] <ubotu> Tailsfan: Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:46] <syahir> last time,when i use hoary version, i just configure the xserver to detect serial mouse
[08:46] <jenda> !monitors
[08:46] <skpl> does anyone know of a script called diskmounter that mounts my windows partition on boot and puts it on the desktop?
[08:46] <roryy> Impi: i think IS might host one

[08:46] <jenda> skpl: have a look at easylinux.info
[08:46] <syahir> but,in breezy does not detect
[08:46] <Tailsfan> and where is the command line
[08:46] <roryy> Impi: do a 'dig za.archive.ubuntu.com' at the command prompt -- I get *.is.co.za hits
[08:46] <blake_ubuntu> skpl, just move the data on to your unix box
[08:47] <Impi> Thanx roryy
[08:47] <syahir> jenda,can u help me please :D
[08:48] <skpl> blake_ubuntu, i prefer duel boot
[08:48] <skpl> which brings up another question i have, for some reason my grub boot loader dissapeared and my computer auto-booted into ubuntu, does anyone know why this might happen?
[08:48] <kosnick> in synaptic i got both gcc (ver 4:4.0.1-3) and gcc-4.0 (ver 4.0.1-4ubuntu9). Do i have to remove the first one? is there any prob if i do so?
[08:49] <gerhard_> oh man, can anyone help me with my sound? i read all the faqs from ubuntuusers.de but they dont help
[08:49] <jenda> syahir: would love to - but i don't know.
[08:49] <blake_ubuntu> grup-update
[08:49] <kosnick> gerhard_ what is it that you need?
[08:49] <FlannelKing> skpl: it's probably just the menu is hidden
[08:49] <syahir> :) ok.does anyone know?
[08:49] <farous> skpl: perhaps you have an option in grup to autoboot in ubuntu. when you boot the pc press escape will give you the grub menu
[08:49] <jadacyrus> this is a dumb question but how do I exit X without the GDM startin up automatically again?
[08:49] <roryy> kosnick: i'd just leave that all alone -- gcc depends on gcc-4.0 and cpp
[08:49] <gerhard_> kosnick, i have no sound at all, nowhere
[08:50] <skpl> FlannelKing, how do i bring it back up?
[08:50] <kosnick> roryy : ok i m not touching it...
[08:50] <skpl> farous, how do i change it back?
[08:50] <farous> skpl: just edit the file /boot/grub/menu.list
[08:50] <tonyyarusso> I need some help fixing X.  I have some xorg.conf backups that will fail completely, some that will start, but give a hashed, fuzzy, useless display, and one that will show up fine but lock up if I try to switch to console.

[08:55] <blake_ubuntu> crimsun, what does paste bin mean?
[08:55] <crimsun> !pastebin
[08:55] <ubotu> pastebin is probably http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/, a site for pasting long texts so you don't disrupt the channel - or install webboard in Gnome: http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=1269
[08:55] <blake_ubuntu> so i dont flood the room
[08:55] <hari> Hi
[08:55] <Tailsfan> !commandline
[08:55] <ubotu> What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Tailsfan
[08:56] <_jason> ubotu: tell Tailsfan about cli
[08:56] <MonsieurBon> what do I have to install to compile a java-programm with javac?
[08:56] <hari> Can u tell me if  I can have java in ubuntu??
[08:56] <_jason> ubotu: tell hari about javadebs
[08:57] <MonsieurBon> ubotu: tell MonsieurBon about javadebs
[08:57] <`Manuel`> crimsun, tnx a lot for information :) now I can start programming under ubuntu
[08:57] <blake_ubuntu> crimsun, posted
[08:57] <immolo> imvista, the wiki is written in php not html
[08:57] <farous> skpl: did you try update menu. the dirty way is to do it by hand. I do not think the de-installation was thorough so check if you did it properly. Finally someitmes you just need to reboot to change the display manager kdm and gdm and to restartx to get rid of other stuff. So bottom line check you deinstalled everything reboot
[08:58] <N2DIY> Three hours later, and I finely got the live CD working with a USB mouse. Does the install CD have more apps. than the live CD?
[08:58] <syahir> anyone can solve my problem please....
[08:58] <imvista> immolo, yes
[08:58] <pianoboy3333> how do I tell synaptic never to upgrade a specific package?
[08:58] <skpl> farous,  thank you, any idea on why my grub menu is not showing up?
[08:58] <mirak> is there a way to prevent firestarter and iptables from polluting the logs and the console ?
[08:58] <immolo> imvista, so you won't download htmll files
[08:58] <imvista> immolo, but i'd like to... save them all in html files or ... similar ones
[08:58] <Tailsfan> How long does it take for k3b to install with a Live CD?
[08:58] <farous> skpl: sorry no idea check the file to see if you have multiple items in it is the only thing i can think of now
[08:58] <imvista> immolo, i can use other tools to do so under windows...
[08:58] <lamego> N2DIY, you can always install more applications later if you have a network connection
[08:59] <KenSentMe> good evening
[08:59] <immolo> imvista, I don't use windows so I can't help you but wget should be able to staticly download the files so you can view them in firefox
[08:59] <mwe> pianoboy3333: package->lock version?
[09:00] <imvista> immolo, you mean only through firefox?
[09:00] <N2DIY> This box isn't networked yet, I'll do an install and have a look around.
[09:00] <pianoboy3333> mwe: thank you
[09:00] <tonyyarusso> I need some help fixing X.  I have some xorg.conf backups that will fail completely, some that will start, but give a hashed, fuzzy, out of sync, useless display, and one that will show up fine but lock up if I try to switch to console.
[09:01] <immolo> imvista, replace firefox with web browser
[09:01] <MetaMorfoziS>  /join #mysql
[09:01] <FlannelKing> imvista: no, through any browser.  Just rename them after you download them (append .html)
[09:01] <MetaMorfoziS> hopp
[09:01] <tonyyarusso> imvista: You're looking to make a local copy of the wiki?  Can I pm you about that?
[09:01] <FlannelKing> imvista: you can do it in one command with rename.  check the man page (it gives an example just like this)
[09:01] <Tailsfan> Is the terminal the place you put the sudo commands?
[09:02] <tonyyarusso> imvista: (I have a conversation about how to do that from before that I could give you a copy of.)
[09:02] <bh4tw> hi,why cant i add vga mode to grub? i tried installing grub2 but the screen still goes blank
[09:02] <imvista> pm me?
[09:02] <KenSentMe> Tailsfan, yes it is
[09:02] <Tailsfan> K
[09:02] <imvista> ok
[09:02] <tonyyarusso> imvista: Ohp, never mind, you're not registered.
[09:02] <skpl> farous, the only thing i have done is i added a splashimage command, for a theme i downloaded off gnomelook.org, but i have done that before and never had a problem

[09:09] <swa> Question:  I've installed the latest 8756 for my nvidia setup (running Dapper on an AMD 64 X2).  Everything seems alright, but I can't tell if SLI is enabled.  I have two 7800 GTX's installed.  Anyone familiar on how to check and make sure SLI is working?
[09:09] <xbox_sky> Hi! I'm not in the best mood... for some *ret* reason I can't view/open/extract 2 tar/gzip files, I had em stored on another hdd, and a few minutes ago I ftp'd files - to my primary pc hdd, I can't view/extract/open the tars "an error occured" , any suggestions?
[09:09] <Tailsfan> K Changed it
[09:09] <xbox_sky> is this a problem related to "ubuntu"?
[09:09] <xbox_sky> bug?
[09:09] <someoneuseless> no
[09:10] <someoneuseless> leave pls
[09:10] <someoneuseless> ;p
[09:10] <KenSentMe> xbox_sky, can u open them as root, by using sudo?
[09:10] <mwe> xbox_sky: how are you doing it?
[09:10] <jenda> someoneuseless: please...
[09:10] <jenda> hello benoy
[09:10] <roryy> if you use a comand-line ftp client, maybe you need to specify 'binary' or 'image' mode
[09:10] <gmp> a
[09:10] <mwe> xbox_sky: does it just say "an error ocurred"?
[09:10] <xbox_sky> First I tried to view/extract/open them with my GUI (KDE) and it took several minutes until ark finally gave up by telling me "unknown error occured"
[09:11] <xbox_sky> you mean like sudo tar xvz ?
[09:11] <jenda> benoy: teh thing is, that in #ubuntuforums, they'll tell you automatix is OK, and here most will tell you not to use it.
[09:11] <roryy> swa: is SLI the same as 3D acceleration?
[09:11] <xbox_sky> mwe, let me re-check
[09:11] <Impi> lirc is giving me a real headache, i tried virtually everything on ubuntu forums and nothing seems to work, any ideas?
[09:11] <jenda> benoy: it is a dayly issue here.
[09:11] <kevinz> hello. Dapper installer cannot find out partitions on my HD and I don't want to format the whole disk, so I cannot proceed. On the other hand PartitionMagic under MS Win tells that some disk has overlapping error, although both windows and breezy runs without problem. I wonder if I can make dapper installer work or fix the partition problem under linux?
[09:11] <swa> roryy, SLI is when you have 2 identical video cards, 1 in each PCIe x16 slot and you bridge them together so they split the load for graphics processing.
