[13:46] <DeathNote> the newestsuch badly
[13:46] <darthanubis> Ocelot, google is your friend 180.22
[13:46] <ikonia> Ocelot: ubuntu's hardware drivers application will suggest the best one for you

[13:47] <Ocelot> lol, yeah i know but the repo does not have 180.22
[13:47] <Mixt> hi,  how can i add the bottom menu (in picture) to my linux : http://www.linuxmint-art.org/CONTENT/content-pre1/92774-1.jpg
[13:47] <ikonia> Ocelot: ubuntu's hardware drivers application will suggest the best one for you
[13:48] <Ocelot> thank you
[13:48] <adante> ActionParsnip: it tells me "mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdc1,  missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail  or so
[13:48] <hwilde> hi I have two monitors and i'm running two separate x screens.  when my mouse and keyboard focus are only on the right monitor for awhile, both monitors start to dim and go into sleep mode.  only activity in the left xscreen wakes it up.  how can I fix it so it recognized activity in both xscreens?
[13:49] <Pici> Mixt: You'd need a dock such as awn. Its the avant-window-navigator package in the repos.
[13:49] <milligan> I have a machine with no storagespace on it. I would like to transmit a 10MB file to another machine. I have access to i.e ftpput .. Is there any way I could send data from /dev/urandom to an FTP server using ftpput ?
[13:49] <arvind_khadri> !twinview | hwilde
[13:49] <storrgie> anyone know how i can open a .DAA with archive manager?
[13:49] <raven> does anyone know something about DRAWPADS with ubuntu?
[13:49] <Mixt> Pici: thanks
[13:49] <hwilde> I like two separate xscreens.  I don't want twinview.

[13:50] <matamou> hello guys, how do I get my wireless card to work? My laptop is Acer 7720z
[13:50] <ikonia> ManateeLazyCat: if you want to query lots of packages, you may want to do it in private with the bot
[13:50] <Pici> ManateeLazyCat: Please use http://packages.ubuntu.com if you're just looking to see what packages are in Ubuntu
[13:50] <ManateeLazyCat> Ok
[13:52] <matamou> I asked this here once couple of days ago, and got my wireless card to work immediately, but I formatted my hdd and i forgot how :( please help!
[13:52] <ikonia> !wireless > matamou

[13:54] <tuxFan> how can i get programs to load at start up?
[13:54] <raven> does anyone know something about DRAWPADS with ubuntu?
[13:55] <Gnea> raven: drawpads?
[13:55] <arvind_khadri> tuxFan, put them in System->Preferneces->startup
[13:55] <hardisk> hi ppl
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> adante: then use: sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /mount/point -o users,defaults
[13:56] <raven> i thought a drawpad would need no special driver because it works like a mouse in ubuntu but instead of tapping with the pencil i have to use the button - is there any software aviable for ubuntu like for joysticks to configure the standarts of the drawpad?
[13:56] <arvind_khadri> !hi | hardisk
[13:56] <hardisk> Do u know on what IRC Server is localized Ubuntu-FR?
[13:56] <raven> gnea or "design pad"
[13:57] <ikonia> hardisk: #ubuntu-fr is the channel
[13:57] <hardisk> My mistake its on Freenode
[13:57] <hardisk> thx
[13:58] <ActionParsnip> adante: did that fly, you will need to: sudo umount /dev/sdc1
[13:59] <brutus> I cannot change my screen resolution more than 800*600. What's the problem?
[13:59] <arvind_khadri> brutus, using a graphics card?
[14:00] <adante> ActionParsnip: it did but seems to have done same thing as without the options heh
[14:00] <adante> ActionParsnip: anyway no big deal i guess i will just do all my operations as root... thanks for your help anyway!
[14:01] <guest> anyone have problems with ZendStudio 5.5.1 after last update? It hogs 100% of cpu, the second not updated pc works fine.
[14:01] <ikonia> guest: zend studio isn't an ubuntu package is it
[14:01] <brutus> arvind_khadri, yes- nvidia 8600GS
[14:01] <malibu> Has anyone here tried XenServer yet??
[14:01] <ikonia> guest:  you may want to contact zend about that
[14:01] <arvind_khadri> brutus, got the drivers for it?
[14:02] <brutus> arvind_khadri, I have the nvidia-glx driver installed too
[14:02] <arvind_khadri> brutus, ok just install nvidia-xconfig and then run sudo nvidia-xconfig
[14:02] <Dreamglider> i need some help with proxy settings. the proxy is set in Network Proxy but it wont work
[14:02] <guest> ikonia: ubuntu's updates break it :) so it's ubuntu's problem. it hink last java updates
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> adante: well, use sudo
[14:03] <Dreamglider> when i try to update i get ->  407 Proxy Authentication Required
[14:03] <brutus> arvind_khadri, it says: Backed up file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' as '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup'
[14:03] <brutus> New X configuration file written to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[14:03] <ActionParsnip> Dreamglider: do you use a proxy for web browsing?
[14:04] <Gnea> raven: is that a physical or virtual thing?
[14:04] <Dreamglider> ActionParsnip: yes
[14:04] <brutus> arvind_khadri, I actually tried this before...and rebooted...no luck with that....
[14:04] <arvind_khadri> brutus, ya you will also need nvidia-settings....
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> Dreamglider: does it require authentication?
[14:04] <on5sl> what is wrong with this line?: syntax error near unexpected token `datum=$(ls -lT "$dir"dump/"$liedje" | awk '{print $6" "$9}')'
[14:04] <Dreamglider> ActionParsnip: Yes
[14:04] <brutus> arvind_khadri, when I try to run nvidia xsettings it says: You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server.
[14:04] <arvind_khadri> brutus, in nvidia-settings you can set the resolution to what you want
[14:04] <raven> gnea physical
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> Dreamglider: then you will need to either connect and browse then update or give apt-get your credentials to allow the traffic
[14:05] <arvind_khadri> brutus, run it now
[14:05] <Dreamglider> ActionParsnip: How ?
[14:05] <brutus> arvind_khadri, nope...same error message..
[14:06] <arvind_khadri> brutus, just restart X and then run nvidia-settings
[14:06] <Gnea> raven: wacom makes a highly supported version
[14:06] <brutus> ok...i'll just do that
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> Dreamglider: http://goinggnu.wordpress.com/2006/11/02/how-to-use-apt-get-behind-proxy-server-ubuntudebian/
[14:06] <Gnea> raven: could you please repeat that here? PM won't get us anywhere.
[14:07] <Dreamglider> ActionParsnip:  im on mibbit so im browsing, but i cannot use apt-get nor the update manager it says > The ISA Server requires authorization to fulfill the request. Access to the Web Proxy service is denied.. I have entered the proxy and user/pass in the network proxy
[14:07] <ActionParsnip> Dreamglider: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-136065.html
[14:07] <raven> gnea shall i repeat here everyting??
[14:07] <Gnea> raven: please
[14:07] <raven> http://www.nulime.com/img/id267093/n/Trust-TB-7300-Wide-Screen-Graphics-Tablet.jpg
[14:07] <raven> i knew that there are no drivers for linux but i only need the main funktion but this only works 90 %
[14:07] <Dreamglider> ActionParsnip: and when i am on campus i dont need a proxy what do i do then ?
[14:07] <raven> for example i cannot tap on the pad but i have to use the button to klick
[14:07] <raven> is there any configuration tool like this for joysticks aviable?
[14:08] <Dreamglider> is there somthing like a proxy manager ? (Like the one i have in Firefox)
[14:08] <blakeshrt> ls -l nodes -rwxrwxrwx 1 comp root 15 Mar 3 21:06 nodes but as the user 'comp' i get ls: cannot access /var/spool/torque/server_priv/nodes: Permission denied whats the problem here?
[14:08] <Dreamglider> it? called switchproxy
[14:08] <Gnea> raven: check these out: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wacom and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=25151
[14:08] <arvind_khadri> blakeshrt, use sudo to access it
[14:09] <raven> gnea i have no wavom tool
[14:09] <raven> wacom
[14:09] <blakeshrt> arvind_khadri: no
[14:09] <arvind_khadri> blakeshrt, no as in ??
[14:09] <oj_> ikonia, hey sorry again can u tell me what I need to install to get this working? I tried scrolling up in chat but I can't respond to your reply
[14:10] <brutus> arvind_khadri, I did that...it said on startup that its running Ubuntu on low graphics mode...i'm stuck on 800*600 now...cannot increase it further
[14:10] <oj_> ikonia, http://paste.ubuntu.com/125768/
[14:10] <arvind_khadri> brutus, which ubuntu??
[14:10] <brutus> Gutsy
[14:10] <chuckh1958> Is there a way to get nautilus to recognize my openssh agent, or to get openssh to recognize the gnome keyring agent? I have my key cached in openssh but nautilus still prompts for the passphrase for every sftp server I connect to.
[14:10] <gmaculo> /whois mterry
[14:10] <brutus> ar
[14:10] <brutus> arvind_khadri,
[14:10] <ActionParsnip> Dreamglider: export the proxy as blank
[14:10] <blakeshrt> arvind_khadri: no as in that defeats the whole purpose of having a solution
[14:11] <Gnea> raven: it doesn't appear that the trust is well known or well supported http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=929617
[14:11] <blakeshrt> arvind_khadri: i don't want to change user to access it - i want to access it as the user 'comp'
[14:11] <arvind_khadri> brutus, hmmm you need to use the restricted drivers...
[14:12] <brutus> arvind_khadri, When I go to restricted managers it says the driver is enabled and already in use...
[14:13] <Oli```> I'm just doing a clean up in synaptic. Is it safe (read: will it not nuke my computer) if I do "Complete Removals" on all the packages in the "Not install (residual config)" status area?
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> Dreamglider: you could make 2 scripts to set and unset it
[14:13] <arvind_khadri> brutus, you ran nvidia-xconfig as root?
[14:13] <kef> can i set different animations for a program window in compiz or does compiz set animations only based on window type?
[14:13] <brutus> arvind_khadri, Yes, so it did edit the xorg.conf file
[14:13] <Dreamglider> ok that fixed the apt-get, now how do i get synaptic package manager to work behind the proxy ?
[14:13] <raven> gnea i know but i only need the main funktion and this works but only one funktion does not work
[14:14] <arvind_khadri> brutus, ok then now try running sudo nvidia-settings
[14:14] <Gnea> raven: I was going to suggest ##hardware, but it looks like you've found it already
[14:14] <arvind_khadri> brutus, sorry gksu in place of sudo
[14:14] <ActionParsnip> Dreamglider: theres a setting in the gui, i'd use apt-get when you need the proxy and synaptic when you dont, it may make life easier if they use their own settings
[14:14] <Gnea> raven: they would know more about it than we would
[14:15] <raven> hm
[14:15] <raven> does not matter i can work with the pad and that's important
[14:15] <raven> tank you...
[14:16] <brutus> arvind_khadri, *sigh* same error box...Here's my xorg.conf: http://pastebin.com/m5e3b3c9f
[14:17] <hey`> there's a better alternative than totem?
[14:18] <Mox`> Hey, is there a specification for hl1 and hl2 servers somewhere?
[14:18] <arvind_khadri> brutus, do one thing, just try this. in the section modes of screen add the resolution you want. and then restart X , it may work
[14:19] <brutus> arvind_khadri, but why don't i get the splash screen of nvidia in the start?
[14:19] <Gnea> hey`: VLC
[14:19] <DarkKnight> hey i installed XP on vbox 2.1 in ubuntu..can anyone tell me how to get my usb detected on XP
[14:20] <hey`> I did something wrong, now totem plays video but no sound.
[14:20] <hey`> alright I'm gonna see VLC, thanks Gnea
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> DarkKnight: shutdown the vbox, go to settings and make sure usb is enabled, you will need the guest additions as well for decent grahicss and sound
[14:21] <cooldduuudde> is it recommended to install Kubuntu-desktop on top of ubuntu? will it cause any conflicts?
[14:22] <Pici> cooldduuudde: Nope, thats perfectly fine to do.
[14:22] <blakeshrt> how do i know which users are part of a group when talking about chown and chgrp and chmod?

[14:56] <Huufarted> question for you guys.  I have 2x '[cron] <defunct>' processes, but...  I have no crons set up.  Anybody else ever seen this?
[14:56] <adante> hi
[14:57] <H__> Huufarted I have not, but the system has cron jobs of itself too
[14:57] <gldtn> ok.. I put MPD to start on session.. and I use Sonata as the client.. but it seems no to read my music database because MPD is starting as root instead of the user.. so I have to kill MPD and start as user to get my music database to show.. how can I solve this?
[14:57] <Huufarted> H__, there are no crontabs in /var/spool/cron/crontabs
[14:57] <adante> i just mounted an ntfs drive of a former vista install, the "Documents and Settings" folder is empty?
[14:58] <Seper> Droopsta: http://www.google.com/search?q="autosupergrub.exe"
[14:58] <Huufarted> H__, so unless the system has it's crontabs under another location and doesn't actually use 'cron' then there are none.
[14:58] <H__> Huufarted those are user crontabs, look in /etc/cron*
[14:58] <oCean_> Huufarted: ls -ald /etc/cron*
[14:58] <Huufarted> H__, thanks, checking it
[14:58] <ANTRat> adante: vista uses /Users
[14:58] <Huufarted> oCean_, H__, thanks you guys.  You have shown me the light.  Any clue why they'd be defunct?
[14:58] <H__> track the PID's
[14:59] <H__> using syslog. cron states whcat it is starting there
[14:59] <Seper> Droopsta: That's about the best I can do, short of looking at every webpage for you
[14:59] <Huufarted> H__, don't need syslog.  Found the offending processes.
[14:59] <adante> ANTRat: ah yes, thanks! (windows support in #ubuntu, love this channel)
[14:59] <Huufarted> H__, just needed to ps -ef and grep for the PPID
[15:00] <H__> Huufarted what did you find ?
[15:00] <Huufarted> H__, I really appreciate the help.  It's a custom (as in non-official) fan control .sh acpi script to control fan settings in a eee
[15:00] <Droopsta> Seper:thanks, I'll look through the web sites and find something
[15:01] <H__> Huufarted you're welcome
[15:01] <Seper> I farted
[15:01]  * Seper blushes
[15:01] <mfdavid> is there a simple way to create a script that repeat my steps? Like this: move the mouse, click to open a software, wait x seconds, clicks on a button, etc, ... ? Like a BOT system or something like that... ?
[15:02] <Seper> mfdavid: xmacro
[15:02] <gotcha> Just installed und tried gfxboot for grub, but now i've got a huge problem :(
[15:02] <gotcha> sudo grub-install /dev/sda4
[15:02] <gotcha> The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly.
[15:02] <gotcha> someone can help?
[15:02] <FloodBot2> gotcha: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:02] <mfdavid> Seper: thanks!
[15:02] <Seper> mfdavid: apt-get install xmacro
[15:02] <Seper> mfdavid: Then search the net for how to use it
[15:02] <H__> gotcha grub-install says file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly ?
[15:03] <gotcha> yes
[15:03] <mfdavid> Seper:  :-) thanks
[15:03] <gotcha> and i meant sda and not sda4
[15:03] <gotcha> just mistyped
[15:03] <H__> gotcha then maybe your MBR is not changed yet
[15:03] <fasta> How can I make Java applets work in Firefox? Every applet I run gives some kind of exception. It could be that all the applets are wrong, but I think it's this system.
[15:03] <rconan> is it a known bug that the power applet always shows that my computer is running on battery power?
[15:03] <krishnan> hi i have a netgear wi-fi connected to 2 computers and i have bought a new hytech switch and connected it to the wi-fi router. but the connection in the switch is not working
[15:03] <gotcha> how can i change it then?
[15:03] <xocolate> could someone help me with samba+cups ???
[15:03] <krishnan> hi i have a netgear wi-fi connected to 2 computers and i have bought a new hytech switch and connected it to the wi-fi router. but the connection in the switch is not working, pls help me.
[15:04] <gotcha> H__ how can i change it then?
[15:04] <gotcha> should i just reboot?
[15:04] <H__> gotcha you can of course retry with sudo grub-install /dev/sda
[15:04] <gotcha> doesn't work
[15:04] <gotcha> same failure
[15:04] <Seper> fasta: I recommend trying different tutorials on the internet. Some skip necessary steps.
[15:05] <Huufarted> rconan, over over the battery icon.
[15:05] <H__> gotcha what does "update-grub" say ?
[15:05] <Huufarted> rconan, does it say anything about ac power?
[15:05] <gotcha> [: 25: ==: unexpected operator
[15:05] <gotcha> exec: 25: -a: not found
[15:05] <H__> gotcha eek !
[15:05] <gotcha> when i type update-grub
[15:05] <gotcha> eek?
[15:05] <gotcha> ^^
[15:06] <H__> gotcha you get typical errors 'that should not happen' :-P
[15:06] <gotcha> hm
[15:06] <gotcha> that sounds.... not so good.
[15:06] <gotcha> :(
[15:06] <Huufarted> gotcha, careful typing stuff on multiple lines like that.  The floodbots might interpret it as pasting a bunch of text.
[15:06] <H__> gotcha are you sure grub was installed correctly ? (debian package)
[15:06] <gotcha> oh, ye, I'm too used to it :(
[15:06] <Daft_Punk> I am looking for an xchat script that will tell me all the nicknames a certain IP has used (a seen script)
[15:06] <shavin> in this fstab entry does 'noatime' conflicts with 'relatime'?what do the two options mean?....... UUID=2e30bac8-06a7-4aec-a6f1-3047124fb273 /               reiserfs noatime,nodiratime,notail,relatime 0       1
[15:07] <gotcha> ye, i used http://kanotix.com/debian/pool/main/g/grub-gfxboot/grub-gfxboot_0.97-11_amd64.deb
[15:07] <H__> gotcha I have no idea if that's a supported one. I always use blunt 'apt-get install grub'
[15:08] <scunizi> gotcha: if you have multiple drives install grub on all of them.. most likely it's in the wrong place when compared to the boot order in bios
[15:08] <xocolate> REGISTER senhairc<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[15:08] <rconan> Huufarted: the icon has changed to the AC power one but it says "Computer is running on battery power" when I mouse over it
[15:08] <scunizi> !register | xocolate
[15:08] <gotcha> scunizi just got 1 hard drive with vista 64bit and ubuntu 64 bit on it
[15:08] <rconan> Huufarted: it has also changed to tell me the charge time instead of the discharge time
[15:08] <FloodBot2> !netsplit
[15:08] <gotcha> H__ hmmm I thought 64bit would be the right
[15:09] <gotcha> H__ should i try sudo apt-get install grub ?
[15:10] <H__> gotcha I think that's your safest bet now, yes
[15:10] <Huufarted> rconan, it sounds like you may not have the appropriate acpi drivers installed and set up.  Getting them set up would certainly not be my area of expertise, though.  :(
[15:10] <H__> gotcha do you have any indications that your MBR has already been updated ? If so you cannot boot at this time, so fix it first.
[15:10] <Huufarted> rconan, try this.  Search on google:  <computer model> acpi ubuntu
[15:11] <H__> gotcha If your MBR is untouched (and the rest of your bootloader is also still OK) then nothing bad has happened yet
[15:11] <Huufarted> rconan, see if any of the results show what you're experiencing now
[15:11] <gotcha> Hm, i dont know, im afraid of rebooting H__
[15:11] <gotcha> :)
[15:12] <beannieman> when someone has a minute can someone tell me what should happen when you type "startx"
[15:12] <H__> gotcha heh :) what boot loader did you use before your gfxboot install ?
[15:13] <gotcha> H__ grub :)
[15:13] <mattze> list
[15:13] <gotcha> http://rafb.net/p/EqJS9837.html
[15:13] <Seper> gotcha: See the first four steps on this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[15:13] <IdentifyTarget> I installed a program, lirc, which now starts everytime I boot. where can I edit the file that calls this during boot?
[15:13] <H__> gotcha that paste looks fine
[15:14] <gotcha> k, I'll try a reboot now
[15:14] <gotcha> wish me luck :)
[15:14] <H__> gotcha hope you have a recovery cd
[15:14] <Seper> ha
[15:14] <Seper> I hope you have a...  doh
[15:15] <Seper> !netsplit
[15:15] <rconan> Huufarted: I would have thought that if ACPI wasn't working then none of the other features would work
[15:15] <H__> Seper :)
[15:15] <Seper> Just testing :)
[15:15] <Huufarted> rconan, I didn't say it wasn't working, I said not sett up properly.  :)
[15:15] <Huufarted> sett=set
[15:16] <H__> question : parted/gparted does not recognize my UFS partitions, while the MAN pages claim UFS is supported. Any ideas ?
[15:16] <rconan> Huufarted: there's no discussion of my problem on google from what I can see
[15:16] <Huufarted> rconan, I'm sorry but beyond that there's nothing that I personally can do for you.  It's out of my reach at this point, sorry.  :(
[15:17] <KDB9000> Is there a way to set up ubuntu to check my e-mail in Evolution without having to have Evolution up?
[15:18] <H__> KDB9000 you use mbox ? imap ? pop3 ?
[15:18] <KDB9000> H__, Imap right now, their might be more to later on
[15:18] <vu> Q: I have P4 2.4 with 512 mem, the livecd boots goes through the entire process, the progress bar completes and then it gets stuck. Nothing shows up, neither a Login screen or GNOME? Whis is this happening?  Checked the CD, it is fine.
[15:19] <H__> KDB9000 maybe an xbiff descendant can do what you want
[15:19] <Seper> KDB9000: Perhaps running Evolution on another desktop might work for you?
[15:19] <rconan> Huufarted: no problem
[15:19] <Huufarted> KDB9000, are you just wanting it to display a notification if there is mail or do you want it to actually download it and store it without starting up?
[15:19] <H__> gotcha welcome back
[15:20] <KDB9000> Huufarted, notification, without evolution being up
[15:20] <gotcha> H__ thanks for the help, obviously it worked :-)
[15:21] <Huufarted> KDB9000, right on.  I'm not sure Evolution is going to need to be used at all.  I can only imagine there would be other apps that can simply check for email and display a notification.
[15:21] <gotcha> so another try to get a gfxboot.. :)
[15:21] <IdentifyTarget> where can I edit the file that starts daemons on boot?
[15:22] <n8tuser> KDB9000-> sort of basic idea, how one determines if there is mail in the mail server if one does not log on to the mail server? i dont think you can without logging on
[15:22] <KDB9000> Huufarted, there is, but it says you need to have Evolution up
[15:23] <anonymous1112> KDB, is it for gmail?
[15:23] <Huufarted> KDB9000, I found an answer for you I think.  sudo apt-get install mail-notification
[15:23] <Huufarted> KDB9000, if you just want to see the app, http://nongnu.org/mailnotify
[15:24] <KDB9000> Huufarted, that is the one that says you need evolution up to check it.
[15:24] <anonymous1112> KDB9000 IS IT FOR GMAIL
[15:24] <Larah>  /newserver irc.astroarchaeologie.de
[15:24] <Huufarted> KDB9000, I think it runs either independently or with Evolution
[15:25] <KDB9000> anonymous1112, no caps please. the Imap account is a gmail account yes, but I might be adding other accounts that aren't gmail.
[15:25] <anonymous1112> http://kcheckgmail.sourceforge.net/
[15:25] <anonymous1112> i only used caps because you ignored me
[15:25] <Huufarted> regardless, don't use caps
[15:25] <Huufarted> !caps | anonymous1112
[15:26] <KDB9000> anonymous1112, because i didn't see it. you need to have the person full username and it will highlight it for them on their screen
[15:26] <Huufarted> KDB9000, I think the mail-notification is the app that suits what you're looking for most
[15:26] <KDB9000> Huufarted, I was hoping there was an app that could be used without having evolution be up.
[15:26] <anonymous1112> my 0 key is sticky
[15:27] <Seper> KDB9000: There is a plugin for firefox "webmail notifier", that checks gmail, yahoo, and others at a given minute interval
[15:27] <anonymous1112> Seper is right also
[15:27] <KDB9000> anonymous1112, tab works, at least for my xchat in my Ubuntu system. type part of the name and hit tab and it might fill in the right name
[15:27] <anonymous1112> im not using xchat brother
[15:27] <Huufarted> KDB9000, I don't think Evolution needs to be up with this one.  There's nothing on the site that indicates this.
[15:28] <KDB9000> anonymous1112, it might work for other IRC clients as well.
[15:28] <anonymous1112> KDB9000:  awesome it does work, thanks,. is that KDE app of any use - http://kcheckgmail.sourceforge.net/
[15:28] <_VIM_> Tab completion works on most IRC clients these days
[15:28] <anonymous1112> _VIM_: thanks also
[15:28] <Daft_Punk> I am looking for an xchat script that will tell me all the nicknames a certain IP has used (a seen script)
[15:28] <sky_> anyone know how i can record my desktop ?
[15:28] <archman> Can I just comment out the entry of /boot/grub/menu.lst that I don't need and I don't want it to appear in my GRUB?
[15:28] <KDB9000> anonymous1112, I am not using KDE and if possible, don't want to add KDE apps.
[15:28] <PoloNorte> !ubuntu-br
[15:29] <anonymous1112> KDB9000: ok just trying to help
[15:29] <Huufarted> _VIM_, it works in MegaIRC, BitchX (It's the name, sorry for the language), and mIRC in Windows as well.
[15:29] <KDB9000> Huufarted, that link you sent, didn't work
[15:29] <mr_daniel> I also think that evolution does NOT to be on to make the mail notification work properly. But despite that I have open my evolution every time and put it on my 4th desktop because I use the calender and other features.
[15:29] <H__> archman yes
[15:29] <Flannel> archman: Which entries are they?
[15:29] <PoloNorte> ubuntu-br
[15:29] <dinesh372> can i access the the encryption algorithm which ubuntu uses for encryption
[15:29] <storbeck> Daft_Punk: /join #xchat
[15:29] <PoloNorte> #ubuntu-br
[15:29] <_VIM_> Huufarted: yep
[15:29] <Huufarted> KDB9000, sorry, I suck at typing sometimes:  Homepage: http://www.nongnu.org/mailnotify/
[15:29] <KDB9000> anonymous1112, thx for the help, worst comes to worst i will load up a KDE one.
[15:29] <sky_> anyone know how to use "recordMyDesktop" ?
[15:30] <sipior> dinesh372: gnupg is probably what you want
[15:30] <sky_> i am troll or i nvm
[15:30] <anonymous1112> KDB9000: what about cGmail.  http://cgmail.tuxfamily.org/
[15:30] <Seper> sky_: I've used it before
[15:30] <dinesh372> sipior: where can i find it
[15:30] <KDB9000> anonymous1112, last I knew, it didn't work with google apps (the gmail account is for school)
[15:30] <sky_> Seper: and how ? can you say me a correct command ?
[15:31] <sipior> dinesh372: "sudo apt-get install gnupg"
[15:31] <hwilde> help my monitor just keeps saying "cannot display this video mode - optimum 1440x900 @60"  I have tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and reverting xorg.conf, and hardcoding that resolution.  what do I do ??
[15:31] <KDB9000> Huufarted, do you know how to make Evolution start at login and open in a different desktop?
[15:31] <blakeshrt> anyoanyone here used torque/maui/pbs before?
[15:31] <Seper> sky_: install gtk-recordmydesktop
[15:31] <storbeck> hwilde: Edit your xorg.conf using those details
[15:31] <Oli```> Where is Ubuntu's equiv of Windows' HOSTS file? I need to add some custom DNS overrides
[15:31] <hwilde> storbeck, I did.  that does not work
[15:31] <anonymous1112> KDB9000: my friend said it works ok for him..
[15:32] <hwilde> Oli```, /etchosts
[15:32] <sky_> Seper: not for installing i mean for using
[15:32] <evantandersen> could i run dual monitors off of two different graphics cards?
[15:32] <hwilde> Oli```, /etc/hosts    i mean
[15:32] <storbeck> hwilde: Are you sure your Monitor isn't hosed?
[15:32] <Huufarted> KDB9000, I apologize but I do not.
[15:32] <Oli```> hwilde: cheers
[15:32] <Seper> sky_: Do you have the gtk front end installed?
[15:32] <hwilde> storbeck, it displays the login screen appropriately and ctrl+alt+f1 tty appropriately
[15:32] <ravster> Hello all
[15:32] <sky_> ofc
[15:32] <KDB9000> anonymous1112, well, I did hear they were going to add google apps to it. I would like to keep it in Evolution (it is easier when i am at home on a slow connection)
[15:32] <Huufarted> KDB9000, I'm trying out that mail program myself.  stand by.
[15:32] <wh4vn> I have a problem with skype on Ubuntu, I cannot make call or receive calls from others, error is: problem with audio playback? any idea for help? Thank you
[15:33] <ravster> My gnome panel just disappeared, and I was hoping someone might be able to help me get it back.
[15:33] <Seper> Applications -> Sound & Video -> gtk-recordMyDesktop
[15:33] <storbeck> hwilde: pastebin your xorg
[15:33] <Seper> sky_: Applications -> Sound & Video -> gtk-recordMyDesktop
[15:33] <evantandersen> wh4vn go to skype options > Sound and change the input outputs making test calls inbetween
[15:33] <Flimm> ravster: log out and log in
[15:33] <sky_> Seper: ah....gtk fronted means gui appz ?
[15:33] <evantandersen>  could i run dual monitors off of two different graphics cards?
[15:33] <Seper> sky_: yes
[15:33] <ravster> Flimm: tried that. I had to do a ctrl-alt-backspace to get out, but it still didn't fix the problem.
[15:34] <KDB9000> Seper, do you know how to set up evolution to start up at login and open into a different desktop?
[15:34] <archman> H__ thanks, Flannel, I've got this: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d3d5a7721 ;;; I want to leave just 2.6.27-13 and 2.6.27-12. Do I also need to "sudo update-grub" after editing it in gedit?
[15:34] <DarkKnight> in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox#Sharing%20Folders%20Between%20Host%20and%20Guest  they mentioned about client XP and client linux systems...does client mean guest OS or host OS
[15:34] <sky_> seper: ok ill try....i like gui appz more than command line
[15:34] <dinesh372> sipior: i got what u want to say but i want to know how can i access the encryption algorithm
[15:34] <evantandersen>  could i run dual monitors off of two different graphics cards?,  i mean i would have a radeon 3200 HD and an MSI card. Both work with ubuntu, could i use them at the same time to drive dual monitors?
[15:35] <Flimm> I'm trying to install hotstuff (server) on my computer
[15:35] <Seper> KDB9000: Starting up at login is easy. Put it in Session. Putting it on another desktop probably has to be done manually.
[15:35] <Flimm> Any idea how I can get a cgi script to run? I'm new to servers.
[15:35] <sky_> seper: thank you
[15:35] <Flannel> archman: To remove older kernels, what you want to do is just remove the older linux-image-[version]-generic packages in your favorite package manager.
[15:35] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[15:35] <anonymous1112> what happened there
[15:35] <_VIM_> another netsplit
[15:36] <archman> Flannel, no, I just want to remove or comment out those entries to not see them in GRUB boot loader.
[15:36] <anonymous1112> netsplit... interesting
[15:36] <mib_sk8lmgg2> hi all, my laptop is not getting connected to my desktop using ethernet since last night, plz help
[15:36] <hwilde> storbeck, http://pastebin.com/f3bacb400
[15:36] <Flannel> archman: But you want the kernels to still be there?  Any particular reason?
[15:36] <archman> Flanner, I don't want to remove kernels (did that job before, btw...)
[15:36] <Huufarted> KDB9000, I just tried mail-notification and it works pretty well.  It does NOT require evolution, but it does support functionality with it.
[15:36] <maurice__> hello
[15:36] <KDB9000> Seper, there has to be a way to tell it what desktop to start up in.
[15:36] <Seper> Flimm: You have to make it executable. chmod 555 file
[15:36] <DarkKnight> anyone help me in this in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox#Sharing%20Folders%20Between%20Host%20and%20Guest  they mentioned about client XP and client linux systems...does client mean guest OS or host OS
[15:37] <archman> Flannel: apt-get autoremove does not want to remove them, there are still some hardware that uses them, so I heard...
[15:37] <mib_sk8lmgg2> it just doesnt detect the automatic or manual settings like it used to do earlier
[15:37] <KDB9000> Huufarted, I plan on trying it out. I thought I already added it but I guess not.
[15:37] <a3Dman> what's special on the ubuntu DVD ?
[15:37] <Seper> KDB9000: I'm sure there is a way it can be done, but I don't think it can be done easily. :\
[15:37] <a3Dman> got all packages or what ?
[15:37] <sky_> Seper: i got error
[15:37] <archman> a3Dman: not all but lots of 'em
[15:37] <Huufarted> KDB9000, it's under the Internet section of your Applications menu
[15:37] <Flimm> OK, I need to find it now!
[15:37] <a3Dman> thx archman
[15:37] <sky_> Seper: Error while parsing the arguments
[15:37] <archman> np
[15:38] <Seper> sky_: sudo apt-get install gtk-recordmydesktop
[15:38] <Flannel> archman: No... that doesn't make a whole lot of sense.  Whichever one you've booted to you're using, and the other ones are just sitting on disk.  Anyway, another way you can make it so GRUB only displays the most recent two is by setting howmany=2 (line 61 of that paste) and then sudo update-grub
[15:38] <Seper> sky_: You have that installed?
[15:38] <sky_> Seper: i have it :)
[15:38] <Seper> sky_: ok
[15:39] <hwilde> storbeck, anything?
[15:39] <sky_> but if i run it it says : eror while parsing the arguments
[15:39] <storbeck> hwilde: Do not use the @60
[15:39] <Seper> sky_: Use pastebin.com to paste us your error
[15:39] <archman> Flannel: tnx! But can I also comment 'em out?
[15:39] <_VIM_> paste.ubuntu.com Seper
[15:39] <sky_> no it say only this phrase
[15:40] <hwilde> storbeck, same thing.  displays the login prompt, then monitor says cannot display blahblahblah
[15:40] <Flannel> archman: You could, but that won't last past your next update-grub (your changes will be overwritten).  update-grub happens automatically whenever you install/update a new kernel, for instance.
[15:40] <KDB9000> Huufarted, well that isn't good. mail-noifty makes evolution crash
[15:40] <Seper> sky_: What phrase?
[15:40] <Huufarted> KDB9000, mail-notify or mail-notification?
[15:41] <Seper> sky_: Error while parsing the arguments?
[15:41] <sky_> Seper: Recording is finished. recordMyDesktop has exited with status 256. Description: Error while parsing the arguments
[15:41] <Extreme_b> Hi, can someone please advise me on this : in my office, it does'nt have an internet access therefore whenever i wanna installed eg. nfs-kernel-servers package, i do not know still which are the files that are needed in order to let nfs works. any link that i can go to reference?
[15:41] <KDB9000> Huufarted, mail-notification
[15:41] <Seper> sky_: Don't give it arguments?
[15:41] <Huufarted> KDB9000, sorry.  :(  I have no suggestions for you.
[15:41] <Flimm> found it at /usr/lib/cgi-bin/hotstuff-dxs and it is executable, Seper
[15:41] <sky_> Seper: no
[15:41] <archman> Flannel: OK, I'll try. What if I screw something up and cannot enter boot loader no longer? :D What's to be done? (Just to make sure ;))
[15:41] <Joker_-_> hey, how can I find out if a computer has SATA controller (I dont have physical acces to the computer)? I'd be looking for something like lspci...
[15:41] <Seper> sky_: Are you running it from the commandline?
[15:42] <sky_> seper:no ...gui
[15:42] <storbeck> hwilde: try adding ` vert-refresh 60 ` in your monitor section, and taking out the @60
[15:42] <perlsyntax> how do i print a pdf file on my printer in ubuntu 8.10?
[15:42] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, what was the question with VirtualBox?
[15:42] <Extreme_b> Hi, can someone please advise me on this : in my office, it does'nt have an internet access therefore whenever i wanna installed eg. nfs-kernel-servers package, i do not know still which are the files that are needed in order to let nfs works. any link that i can go to reference?
[15:42] <Seper> Flimm: I'm not really sure then. It could be an error in your script?
[15:42] <perlsyntax> i haveing prob doing it
[15:42] <hwilde> storbeck, http://pastebin.com/f1a0aeb07   look at the end of this log... I think maybe the monitor is fried.  why would it flicker edid
[15:42] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox#Sharing%20Folders%20Between%20Host%20and%20Guest  they mentioned about client XP and client linux systems...does client mean guest OS or host OS
[15:42] <Seper> sky_: Run it from the commandline and see what happens\
[15:42] <Flimm> Seper: I'm a total beginner, how do I even know if the script's running already?
[15:43] <Seper> sky_: gtk-recordMyDesktop
[15:43] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; i am on hardy...XP is on my virtual machine
[15:43] <perlsyntax> how do i print a pdf file off my print
[15:43] <Flannel> archman: After you modify stuff, it won't really affect anything until you boot next.  So... update-grub if relevant, and make sure stuff looks decent.  Also, if for some reason you screw stuff up you can recover by manually editing your grub entry from the grub menu itself.
[15:43] <hwilde> storbeck, lines 505-528 over and over EDID registerd / removed / registered / removed  :(
[15:43] <erUSUL> Joker_-_: lspci should dhow you sata controller if any
[15:43] <ganesh1> how to install vlc?
[15:43] <perlsyntax> anyone know about print pdf from the pc
[15:43] <Seper> Flimm: ps aux | less
[15:43] <archman> Flannel: Also, do I need to update-grub after commenting out?
[15:43] <sky_> Seper: it say "Capturing" but i dont know how to stop it..if i want stop iit
[15:43] <perlsyntax> i mean printer
[15:43]  * _VIM_ hides from all the netsplits
[15:43] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: humk, then it doesnt have one I guess
[15:44] <Seper> Flimm: That will show the script if it's currently running
[15:44] <Flannel> archman: If you update-grub after commenting out, your comments will be removed.
[15:44] <perlsyntax> hello
[15:44] <bobbob1016> Is it relatively safe to get and run code from google code, as in code.google.com?  Basically this http://code.google.com/p/mythtv-for-iphone/
[15:44] <anonymous1112> client os is just another way of saying desktop operating system
[15:44] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, well the first command it setting up the folder for share (on the host, hardy). the clients are referring to your guest OS (XP in this case)
[15:44] <ganesh1> how to install vlc?
[15:44] <Seper> sky_: Did you make sure to run the "gtk" one? gtk-recordMyDesktop
[15:44] <hwilde> !vlc
[15:44] <archman> Flannel, oh...:) Thanks for your help, I'll try it now. So just gedit...
[15:44] <erUSUL> Joker_-_: that's the line from my lspci -->> 00:16.1 SATA controller: ALi Corporation ULi M5288 SATA
[15:44] <bobbob1016> ganesh1, http://www.google.com/search?q=vlc+ubuntu&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=com.ubuntu:en-US:unofficial&client=firefox-a  First thing on google
[15:45] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: yeah I tryed that but since I couldnt find anything concerning sata I tought maybe it was listed some other way...
[15:45] <sky_> Seper: ah not gtk
[15:45] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: guess that p4 is too old
[15:45] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; i executed in my XP command prompt and i got that no network found
[15:45] <erUSUL> Joker_-_: paste your lspci and i'll take a look
[15:45] <Flimm> Seper: so cgi scripts are the same as normal processes?
[15:45] <anonymous1112> bobbob1016: not very kinda that ganesh
[15:45] <Seper> Flimm: yes
[15:45] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, did you make the share and tell VB that you want to use that share with XP (on your host system)?
[15:46] <sky_> Seper: this command open the gui appz...and same error if i run it
[15:46] <hwilde> storbeck, vert-refresh is not legit.  waht's  the syntax
[15:46] <bobbob1016> anonymous1112, ?  What do you mean that he left before I could !patience him?
[15:46] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; i executed the commands as in that link
[15:46] <anonymous1112> bobbob1016: i believe that is the case
[15:46] <Seper> sky_: Same commandline error? Complaining about arguments?
[15:46] <FloodBot3> !netsplit
[15:46] <FloodBot2> !netsplit
[15:46] <sky_> seper: no :)
[15:47] <Seper> sky_: Use pastebin.com to paste the output to us.
[15:47] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: nah theres defenitly no sata ports there... I see the ide controller but no sata controller
[15:47] <Flimm> OK, I get this error when running the script: http://paste.ubuntu.com/125846/
[15:47] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: that computer is simply too old. thanks tho
[15:47] <sky_> Seper: no output
[15:48] <Seper> Flimm: It may mean for you to check line 411 in your script
[15:48] <erUSUL> Joker_-_: no problem
[15:48] <vu> I have a P4 2.4 with 512 mem.  ubuntu livecd freezes just before it can show the login screen? Why is this? Checked the cd, no problems with it.
[15:49] <sky_> Seper: wait i make screenshot
[15:49] <Seper> Flimm: I'm not a cgi guy
[15:49] <gotcha> Hey, can someone tell me command in XCHAT for a button when i right-click a user? The button is called "poke!" and when i click it, it should make /me pokes %a but it doenst work :)
[15:49] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: do you have any idea why an AMD 2600+ gives less bogomips than a p4 1.8?
[15:49] <Ienorand> ... what's going on?
[15:49] <Seper> WTF is up with the servers today?
[15:49] <_VIM_> !ot | gotcha
[15:49] <anonymous1112> vu im running ubuntu on a 900mhz intel atom with 512mg ram and 4gig hdd, so it should be fast enough
[15:49] <sky_> Seper:http://obrazok.eu/files/wboa53pje8fjp7dyew3i.png
[15:50] <Flimm> Seper: bah, do you know a chatroom where I can get more server specific advice?
[15:50] <Seper> Flimm: #perl
[15:50] <dared> vu: maybe your graphics card?
[15:50] <Flimm> Thanks
[15:50] <anonymous1112> vu: its probably hardware conflict. try another machine
[15:51] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, sorry, had to take care of something. try adding the the share using the GUI
[15:51] <_VIM_> Flimm: theres #Ubuntu-server too
[15:51] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, on your host system
[15:51] <vu> anonymous1112: thats the thing I don't understand, it always gets stuck before the login screen. I can see the mouse pointer on the screen and can move it too.  But nothing else happens?
[15:51] <Flimm> thanks _vim_
[15:51] <vu> older version of knoppix works fine.
[15:51] <anonymous1112> vu: how long are you waiting
[15:51] <archman> Flannel: looking good? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d764fe4ac
[15:51] <thanhngoc> e
[15:51] <thanhngoc> co ai khong
[15:51] <thanhngoc> ?
[15:52] <vu> i have waited for as long as 5 mins before restarting the mac.
[15:52] <sky_> Seper: no idea ?
[15:52] <Seper> sky_: Can you take a screen shot of the terminal for me too
[15:52] <anonymous1112> ok... possibly a hardware conflict if its on an x86 mac
[15:53] <sky_> Seper: no errors in terminal or anything what can help you :>
[15:53] <Seper> hmmm
[15:53] <vu> I see the orange progress bar, then the orange screen then the small circular pointer and nothing happens.
[15:53] <sky_> Seper: btw which command show me which window manager i have ?
[15:53] <anonymous1112> vu: is it still spinning. maybe try Alt F1
[15:54] <Seper> sky_: ps aux | less
[15:54] <Seper> sky_: It looks like gnome to me
[15:54] <vu> anonymous1112: it stops spinning, but it is there, sometimes it changes to a normal pointer and then nothing happens.
[15:54] <sky_> Seper: its gnome...
[15:54] <jodas> Does anyone in here have a ath9k module for their card?
[15:55] <sky_> Seper: i think i have problems because i have a Compiz ?
[15:55] <anonymous1112> vu: try an alt f1 to manually bring up menu
[15:55] <jodas> Does anyone have an ath9k module?
[15:55] <ZitchDog> I am trying to change file permissions for only directories in a path using "find path -type d | chmod 755" but it messes up on directories with spaces in their names... how do i handle this?
[15:55] <Seper> sky_: Perhaps: apt-get update; apt-get install recordmydesktop
[15:55] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, did you just copy and past the code from the link or did you retype iy?
[15:55] <vu> anonymous1112: what do I do after the alt + F1?
[15:56] <sky_> Seper: no update...system was updated before 30 minutes :D....and i have recordmydesktop installed via apt ofc
[15:56] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; i copy pasted
[15:57] <Seper> sky_: Try running to see if it will upgrade: sudo apt-get install recordmydesktop
[15:58] <sky_> seper: its latest version :p
[15:58] <jodas> Does anyone have an ath9k module?
[15:58] <jodas> Does anyone have an ath9k module?
[15:58] <jodas> Does anyone have an ath9k module?
[15:58] <jodas> Oops.
[15:58] <sky_> jodas: dont spamm please....
[15:58] <jodas> My bad.
[15:58] <_VIM_> jodas: :/
[15:58] <sinnadyr> does anyone got repeat?
[15:58] <sky_> jodas: i dont have :)
[15:58] <anonymous1112> vu: If you cant bring up the main menu with an Alt F1. at the LiveCD initial boot screen: press Select F6 for more options then add the following option to the beginning of the options list: break=top Press enter to start booting Ubuntu will start booting, but kick you out to a command prompt; at the prompt type these two commands: first "modprobe piix" (dont use the "s), then type exit  the LiveCD should boot normally.
[15:58] <Seper> sky_: Well, that doesn't seem good then. :\
[15:58] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, ok, well I don't think your username is your and the shared is in you/folder. so you need to add your own stuff in. or use the GUI and edit the settings of XP. you can point it to your share from there. also make sure you have a network adapter set up and it works inside with XP
[15:58] <oCean_> !anyone | jodas
[15:58] <sky_> jodas: can you try a Ubuntu forums ?
[15:58] <sky_> Seper: and any other program for recording ?
[15:58] <Seper> sky_: Take a picture of terminal: recordMyDesktop
[15:59] <jodas> I checked those.
[15:59] <archman> erUSUL: You here? I need help about GRUB.
[15:59] <sky_> Seper: i pastebin it ok ?
[15:59] <Seper> ok
[15:59] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; that i copied it and changed them accordingly...later on in the code you see some commands to be executed in command prompt that doesn't work
[15:59] <jodas> I use opensuse but I can't go in there because they banned me.
[15:59] <sky_> lol :D
[15:59] <LjL> jodas: that's your problem, this channel is for *Ubuntu* support
[15:59] <Seper> sky_: recordmydesktop is the best recorder i know of
[15:59] <sky_> jodas: you must be polite
[16:00] <jodas> I am.
[16:00] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, you have the VB GUI right, or is this on a server?
[16:00] <sky_> Seper: http://fpaste.org/paste/4943
[16:00] <anonymous1112> vu: did u get that
[16:00] <sky_> jodas: i ask if the can unban you ok ? :)))
[16:00] <jodas> No.
[16:00] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; i have the GUI
[16:00] <jodas> Screw them.
[16:00] <LjL> !language | jodas
[16:00] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; one question..how do i get this XP a bigger screen that's full screen
[16:01] <archman> bazhang, you here maybe?
[16:01] <mustangg2> Is the "create usb startup disc" an installable option?
[16:01] <Seper> sky_: Run: recordMyDesktop --no-sound
[16:01] <sky_> Seper: i tried already run it with this - - no - sound and no wm...it say capturing but i dont know where he save video
[16:01] <sipior> archman: best just to address your question to the channel at large
[16:02] <Seper> sky_: oh
[16:02] <archman> Is this looking OK to reboot? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d764fe4ac
[16:02] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, ok, open the GUI and go into your XP's settings (the Virtual machine can't be running, Host+F, host is normal right ctrl) and go to "shared folders". add the shared folder that way
[16:02] <Seper> sky_: type: ls *ogg*
[16:02] <sky_> *ogg* ? :D :D
[16:02] <vu> thx anonymous1112 be back after I try your suggestions.
[16:02] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, did you install the addon tools?
[16:02] <Seper> sky_: It shout have a number after it
[16:03] <anonymous1112> vu: ill wait
[16:03] <Seper> sky_: should*
[16:03] <sky_> Seper: i dont understand
[16:03] <sythem> So I've got a question about spdif if anyone thinks they can help
[16:03] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; which addon??
[16:03] <wh4vn> I can make call in Skype, but noone can hear my voice, I also make some test calls. How can I config Skype to make call normally
[16:03] <anonymous1112> vu: dont take too long, wife is nagging me to go to bed
[16:03] <wh4vn> ?
[16:03] <Seper> sky_: type: ls ~/*ogg*
[16:03] <sky_> but what is *ogg* ? :-O
[16:03] <Seper> sky_: The recorded desktop file should be numbered
[16:03] <archman> sky_ music file format lol
[16:03] <Gnea> sky_: anything with 'ogg' in the name
[16:04] <sipior> archman: the file looks correct, but did you add the comments to the earlier kernel lines?
[16:04] <sky_> ahaaa
[16:04] <Seper> sky_: The file will have ogg in it's name
[16:04] <sky_> i never heard about ogg format sry guys :)
[16:04] <anonymous1112> wh4vn: have you unchecked the skype can control audio levels box
[16:04] <mustangg2> how can I add the make usb-startup option?
[16:04] <Gnea> archman: then it should be *.[Oo][Gg][Gg]
[16:04] <sythem> System: Inspiron e1505 with s-video adapter containg SPDIF audio output. Works in windows. Can't seem to get any signal to come out of it in Ubuntu.
[16:04] <wh4vn> anonymouse1112: not yet
[16:04] <anonymous1112> wh4vn: turn that off and give check your levels
[16:05] <sky_> ls: cannot access /root/*ogg*: No such file or directory
[16:05] <archman> sipior: I'm running 2.6.27-13 now, so I want that and ...-12 to be the entries in boot loader. I don't want to see others.
[16:05] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, the guest additionals. When you start the virtual machine, under device at the bottom is "Install additional". once Windows is up, click that and it will act like there is a CD in the drive. install execute the install and it will install drivers for your VGA, network, sound, etc... and make it seamless (meaning you can move your mouse in and out of the Virtual machine without using the host button)
[16:05] <archman> Gnea: oh, sorry...true.
[16:05] <Seper> sky_: type: ls ~/*ogg*
[16:05] <erUSUL> archman: what's the prblem?
[16:05] <sipior> archman: you can uninstall the older kernels via your package management interface of choice, and the old entries will be removed.
[16:06] <sky_> seper: same phrase
[16:06] <ZitchDog> hey... i need some help, I am trying to change file permissions for only directories in a path using "find path -type d | chmod 755" but it messes up on directories with spaces in their names... how do i handle directories with spaces in their names?
[16:06] <Gnea> sky_: you might prefer this one:  ls ~/*.ogg  or  find ~ -name "*.ogg"
[16:06] <wh4vn> anonymouse1112: no change
[16:06] <Seper> sky_: type: whoami
[16:06] <archman> Well, the new question here then...is it safe to completely remove all the kernels via synaptic that I do not use?
[16:06] <archman> erUSUL ^
[16:06] <archman> sorry
[16:06] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; i dont know anything about that... i am a little new in that
[16:06] <anonymous1112> wh4vn: damn... thats what stumped me...
[16:06] <wh4vn> anonymouse1112: maybe there is something'
[16:06] <sky_> Seper: i am root :-X
[16:07] <sipior> archman: sure, but be careful that you have at least one bootable kernel :-)
[16:07] <wh4vn> anonymouse1112: what? I cannt understand
[16:07] <storbeck> ZitchDog: for file in `find / -type d`; do chmod 755 "$file"; done
[16:07] <anonymous1112> wh4vn: well, my skype wasnt working until i unchecked that box and turned the levels up
[16:07] <anonymous1112> wh4vn: then it decided to work fine
[16:07] <Seper> sky_: root can't access /root/?
[16:07] <archman> sipior: why then autoremove did not suggested to remove 'em?
[16:07] <ZitchDog> thanks storbeck
[16:07] <erUSUL> archman: is safe you only need one installed (the last one) but is not a bad idea to keep one extra just in case you mess something installing third party drivers or whatever
[16:07] <storbeck> np
[16:07] <sky_> Seper: thats funny :D
[16:08] <Seper> sky_: type as regular user: ls ~/*ogg*
[16:08] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, ok, I am guessing that is the problem. You don't have the drivers for your virtual network card so it doesn't work. installing the additionals and restarting should make everything work. then do the windows command to add the share
[16:08] <sipior> archman: older kernels are retained by default. it's good practise to keep known good kernels around, in case a kernel update causes problems.
[16:08] <wh4vn> anonymouse1112: turn the levels up? What does it mean?
[16:08] <Seper> sky_: I assume your not running your desktop as root? or are you?
[16:08] <sky_> Seper: ls: cannot access /home/sky/*ogg*: No such file or directory
[16:08] <storbeck> sky_: What are you trying to find?
[16:08] <sky_> Seper: nooo .
[16:09] <anonymous1112> wh4vn: the volume on your microphone/speakers/ devices
[16:09] <Seper> ok
[16:09] <sky_> Seper: i am not troll as i look
[16:09] <wh4vn> anonymouse1112: I turn it to maximum it cans
[16:09] <storbeck> sky_: ls -al /home/sky/*.ogg
[16:09] <_VIM_> sky_: you're using the word troll incorrectly, you mean "noob"?
[16:09] <anonymous1112> wh4vn: damn, i dont know then boss
[16:09] <Seper> sky_: Run as sky: recordMyDesktop --no-sound
[16:10] <Seper> sky_: Then pastebin the output
[16:10] <anonymous1112> trolling is when you intentionally incite peoples anger
[16:10] <archman> Well, I'm not sure anymore now...cause I've spoken with some guy here, that is also an expert, don't remember his name, but he said that if the autoremove didn't offer them for removal, they might be used by hardware or some stuff...
[16:10] <archman> erUSUL, sorry again, forgot to address ;)
[16:10] <sky_> _VIM_: :o)
[16:11] <erUSUL> archman: well one kernel can not use other kernel's files
[16:11] <_VIM_> this is what a troll is...
[16:11] <_VIM_> !troll
[16:11] <wh4vn> anonymouse1112: ok, thank you1
[16:11] <Seper> I am not a noob as i troll
[16:11] <archman> erUSUL, so, when I'm in this kernel, the older cannot be used anyhow?
[16:11] <erUSUL> archman: nope
[16:12] <sky_> Seper: IT WORKS !
[16:12] <ludo2612> hello
[16:12] <sky_> Seper: tyvm !
[16:12] <Seper> sky_: yay. try the "gtk" version
[16:12] <Joker_-_> Any idea why an AMD 2600+ gives less bogomips than a p4 1.8?
[16:12] <archman> erUSUL, ok, so what do I remove in Synaptic? Do you know the package name (except the version, sure ;))?
[16:13] <sky_> Seper: i try but i think it will be not work
[16:13] <sipior> Joker_-_: bogomips is not an especially reliable indicator of performance :-)
[16:13] <anonymous1112> if anyone is seriously bored, try and watch this for more than one minute : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYvZh-Vcrb0
[16:13] <erUSUL> archman: linux-image-$VERSION
[16:13] <Joker_-_> sipior: humk, and what is?
[16:13] <hipzen> Joker: the AMD doesn't really run @ 2.6GHz
[16:13] <storbeck> !ot | anonymous1112
[16:13] <Seper> sky_: The reason it doesn't work for root, is because root doesn't have control of the GUI.
[16:13] <Joker_-_> hipzen: yeah I know, it's somewhere near 1600mhz
[16:13] <sipior> Joker_-_: that's a complicated question, which depends upon what you want to do with your machine.
[16:13] <sky_> Seper: i try it to run as root
[16:14] <Seper> sky_: I mean, it is sky's desktop, not root's desktop
[16:14] <Seper> sky_: Run as sky: gtk-recordMyDesktop --no-sound
[16:15] <sky_> Seper: no error :ň
[16:15] <anonymous1112> storbeck: only lurkers and idlers in offtopic brother
[16:15] <archman> erUSUL: thank you for your help, sipior, you too! But what if it all messes up? What am I gonna do to fix it? (if I cannot boot anymore? Also, what's the command for the current used kernel displaying in terminal?
[16:15] <storbeck> anonymous1112: I do not care. Do not spam this room or go off-topic.
[16:15] <Seper> sky_: Try running as sky: gtk-recordMyDesktop    # Without --no-sound
[16:15] <BulBulRed> what is a good alternative to sql developer in ubuntu ?
[16:16] <anonymous1112> storbeck: are you channel op
[16:16] <sky_> Seper: no error :D
[16:16] <storbeck> anonymous1112: Read the rules.
[16:16] <hardo-> archman: uname -a to display the kernel info
[16:16] <Seper> sky_: yay
[16:16] <anonymous1112> storbeck: would you kindly answer my question
[16:16] <archman> hardo- tnx ;)
[16:16] <Joker_-_> sipior: I'm swapping 3 machines for different reasons. I have a media center that is way too weak, my desktop is way too powerfull for what I do but the media center is still too weak for using as a desktop so Imma swap it with my NAS server. all in all, nas will become my desktop, media center will become NAS and my desktop will become the mediacenter.
[16:16] <erUSUL> archman: "uname -a" just make sure you have the package "linux-image" installed that is meta-package that depends on the last aviable kernel. that's the only you need
[16:16] <hwilde> anonymous1112, do you have a support question?
[16:16] <sky_> Seper: but thank you :)))
[16:16] <anonymous1112> hwilde: yes
[16:17] <archman> erUSUL: Linux archman-laptop 2.6.27-13-generic #1 SMP Thu Feb 26 07:26:43 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux   OK?
[16:17] <hwilde> anonymous1112, please restate your question on one line
[16:17] <bill> cw=Z]PP;5
[16:17] <sky_> Seper: i go offline bye bye
[16:17] <Seper> sky_: welcome
[16:17] <Pres-Gas> Hey, all.  I am trying to remember if the Ubus enable IPv6 and if they do, does it no longer need the sit0 pseudo-interface?
[16:18] <archman> erUSUL: "linux-image" pack is not installed. How come?
[16:18] <anonymous1112> hwilde: so, i have this computer, and its running xandros, and my wife changed the password. but she forgot what it was.. do i have to format
[16:18] <anoop> hi
[16:18] <Joker_-_> sipior: My choice of swapping boxes is based on "troughput" of the machines. I was testing some other of my servers and figured that the AMD Athlon XP 2600+ was weaker than a P4 1.8, so I was wondering why. I know it's clocked slower but it's supposed to be the equivalent of a 2600mhz from INTEL since it does more operations per cycles.
[16:18] <erUSUL> archman: install it then remove the kernel you do not use
[16:18] <hwilde> anonymous1112, that is not an ubuntu related question.
[16:18] <archman> erUSUL: ok, hope I'll be able to boot up the next time :D
[16:18] <evantandersen> hey does anyone know if this will work? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1085670
[16:19] <Joker_-_> sipior: so, got enough tinformations to understand what I wanna do with the boxes?
[16:19] <anonymous1112> well, you did ask me if I had a support question.
[16:19] <berkes> how do I associate filetypes in ubuntu (or more specific gedit)? I recently merged from kubuntu, in KDE there is  a sidewide configscreen for this.
[16:20] <hwilde> !ot > anonymous1112
[16:20] <Joker_-_> sipior: the lamp server will get 512mb, so will the nas, my desktop will have 1gb and the media center will get my actual desktop, a quadcore with 4gb
[16:20] <dings> Does anyone successfully use the python-pythonmagick pkg. in intrepid/hardy? Seems like it only makes Image and Blob available, and I don't see why.
[16:20] <tyler_d1> how do I su to another user without relying on /bin/bash please?
[16:20] <berkes> somehow gnome seems to find my .module files binary, rather then PHP ($ file command reports this correct as PHP)
[16:20] <Blou_Aap> how can i type a command in the terminal and without closing the command type another on the same terminal ?
[16:21] <evantandersen> berkes  System > Prefrences > Preferred Applications
[16:21] <archman> erUSUL: ok, removing linux-image-2.6.22-14-generic right? (Sorry to bother)
[16:21] <Joker_-_> hence the question, how can I find what machine gives the best troughput?
[16:21] <berkes> Blou_Aap: terminate the line with an & e.g. gedit &
[16:21] <hwilde> Blou_Aap, put a semicolon
[16:21] <tyler_d1> Blou_Aap: to place the command as a background process type &
[16:21] <hwilde> !pm
[16:21] <tyler_d1> Blou_Aap: 2 commands in-line are separated by &&
[16:21] <erUSUL> archman: yep if its 2.6.22 *22* ?
[16:21] <Joker_-_> I'm not talking hard-drive speed or anything, simply cpu + mem
[16:21] <Blou_Aap> ta i forgot
[16:22] <hwilde> Joker_-_, try in #hardware
[16:22] <archman> erUSUL: 2.6.22-14.46. I don't understand the question.
[16:22] <sipior> Joker_-_: apologies, i was away.
[16:22] <archman> erUSUL: It's the first kernel I had, back in the time...
[16:23] <erUSUL> archman: intrepid uses 2.6.27 *27* kernels not 22 those are ancient
[16:23] <berkes> evantandersen: thanks, but that is not the one I am looking for. That tool only allows a few base apps to be set.
[16:23] <berkes> I need gnome to recognise that a .module file is php evantandersen
[16:23] <unr3a1> hey all
[16:24] <archman> erUSUL: removal or complete removal? (I know the diffs, but dunno what to think here)
[16:24] <bruenig> hmm
[16:24] <erUSUL> archman: complete removal is fine
[16:24] <bruenig> FloodBot3: you are flooding, ban yourself
[16:24] <archman> ok ;)
[16:25] <sky_> bruenig: lol :D
[16:25] <unr3a1> I have a broadcom 4312 (rev 1) card in my netbook, but I am unable to enable monitoring mode.  I have done the b43-fwcutter install to install the necessary firmware, but it still is not working.  what can i do>
[16:25] <unr3a1> ?
[16:25] <sky_> Seper: no idea ? xD
[16:25] <Joker_-_> sipior: lol, no problems
[16:25] <ludo2612> nobody to help me ?
[16:26] <Joker_-_> sipior: read back or not, msg me if you have any clue, I'll go to #hardware as suggested by hwilde
[16:26] <archman> erUSUL: to be removed: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-14-generic and linux-ubuntu-modules... ok?
[16:26] <sipior> Joker_-_: try not to focus too much on processor speed. depending on what you want a machine to do, hard disk speed, memory and cache availability can be far more important. you'll get better advise in #hardware, i suspect :-)
[16:26] <erUSUL> archman: ok;
[16:26] <archman> erUSUL: they also appear in the local/obsolete ;)
[16:27] <Joker_-_> sipior: yeah but in this case thats ram & cpu I need / miss...
[16:27] <Joker_-_> sipior: all the hard drives are the same, or almost.
[16:27] <Joker_-_> sipior: everything is "hosted" on the nas
[16:28] <Joker_-_> sipior: and the nas has an external drive bay (sata)
[16:28] <unr3a1> so does anyone know what I can do?
[16:29] <shadeslayer> hey how do i change the sound theme??
[16:29] <shadeslayer> in GNOME
[16:29] <amigamia1> how do you setup php?
[16:30] <shadeslayer> i have sound prefrences open
[16:30] <amigamia1> when i run an install it just tries to download the file
[16:30] <storbeck> amigamia1: #php would be a better channel for that question
[16:30] <amigamia1> ok
[16:30] <ludo2612> my second screen is not recognized by kubuntu. what can i do?
[16:31] <shadeslayer> #kubuntu
[16:31] <shadeslayer> ><
[16:31] <_VIM_> amigamia1: one way to avoid that is getting Ubuntu Server edition, it correctly sets all that stuff up
[16:31] <anoop> i am using ubuntu 8.10 need to onnect net using bsnl huawei  ec325 wirless modem pls help me
[16:31] <_VIM_> and then you can just slap a lightweight window manager on it if needed amigamia1
[16:31] <Pew^_^> can I install ubuntu on my 1GB usb memory flash drive?
[16:31] <Seper> sky_: no idea about what?
[16:31] <hwilde> hi I have two monitors and i'm running two separate x screens.  when my mouse and keyboard focus are only on the right monitor for awhile, both monitors start to dim and go into sleep mode.  only activity in the left xscreen wakes it up.  how can I fix it so it recognized activity in both xscreens?
[16:32] <hwilde> !usb > Pew^_^
[16:32] <sky_> Seper: nothing now
[16:32] <shadeslayer> anoop: ah DHCP enabled??
[16:32] <Seper> Pew^_^: Yes, with great difficulty :)
[16:32] <storbeck> Pew^_^: You can put a livecd on it.
[16:32] <anoop> what it mean?
[16:32] <vu> is anonymous1112 still here
[16:32] <Seper> !usb
[16:32] <Pew^_^> my question was, how much size does ubuntu need after installation?
[16:33] <storbeck> vu: Why?
[16:33] <anoop> pls tell in detail
[16:33] <nooblyalmostid> could someone direct a noob where to go before asking simple questions?
[16:33] <vu> stobeck: i needed to thank him again.
[16:33] <hipzen> Pew^_^: depends on how much you install
[16:33] <anoop> heloooo help me
[16:33] <storbeck> He's here, but I think he's idling.
[16:33] <storbeck> You might want to PM him.
[16:33] <Pew^_^> hipzen: say a standard installation? I have the 600mb iso
[16:33] <b4cchus> nooblyalmostid: google
[16:33] <godowner> Anyone here like an expert in sound? I have a very noisy speaker problem, only on ubuntu, only sometimes
[16:33] <unr3a1> Pew^_^: a 1GB flashdrive would be enough to install Ubuntu onto it.
[16:34] <anoop> heloooo
[16:34] <amy__> hey guys
[16:34] <Pew^_^> will I have at least 100 MB free to work with? :)
[16:34] <Seper> anoop: I have a  huawei
[16:34] <ludo2612> my second screen is not recognized by kubuntu. what can i do ?
[16:34] <unr3a1> Pew^_^: don't know how much space you would have left on the drive, but to setup a USB stick as a bootable OS, a 1GB would be fine.
[16:34] <ludo2612> #kubuntu doesn't work!
[16:34] <Seper> anoop: Mine is ec228
[16:34] <nooblyalmostid> Yes.. Ive been to google, and finally figured out how to get root internet access using a zte ac8700 usb modem.. but erm.. when I try following the advice in the same places to get the access for non-root.. something dosn't work.. thanks for the google idea.
[16:34] <hipzen> Pew^_^: not sure you will in a "standard" installation (what is a standard inst anyway?) - but you could fit it onto a 1GB USB stick
[16:35] <_VIM_> !doesntwork | ludo2612
[16:35] <torsten_> hello. i have a problem with open certain pdfs in ubuntu. im new to linux, pls help
[16:35] <Pew^_^> I have one more question. does Ubuntu include a C and C++ compiler with it?
[16:35] <godowner> Anyone here like an expert in sound? I have a very noisy speaker problem, only on ubuntu, only sometimes, please help...
[16:35] <sipior> Pew^_^: sure does
[16:35] <hipzen> Pew^_^: yes, GCC is standard
[16:35] <archman> erUSUL: Everything went well! thank you for your help. :)
[16:36] <Pew^_^> ok, thanks. off to try to install it on the USB, later guys!
[16:36] <unr3a1> Pew^_^: yes, it includes GCC as part of its standard install

[16:36] <anoop> any body pls help me to conect net using huawei usb modem
[16:36] <godowner> Can't anyone help me?
[16:36] <nooblyalmostid> chat the response I get each time I try to connect as a non-root acct is
[16:36] <hipzen> godowner: can you be a bit more specific?
[16:37] <nooblyalmostid> --> The PPP daemon has died: No root priv error (exit code = 3)
[16:37] <nooblyalmostid> I have tried adding "noauth" to a user file in /etc/ppp/peers
[16:37] <godowner> Its like a crumpling noise, i don't know how to explain it, like if you were pulling out speakers while they are still ON...
[16:37] <max82fr> hi guys!!
[16:37] <dma> hi all
[16:37] <Ghoul> what was the program called to control multiple monitors?
[16:37] <ludo2612> ubottu: when i try to enter on the #kubuntu channel, i am redirecting to #ubuntu-proxy-users and a bot say me that I would connect me on #ubuntu
[16:38] <hipzen> godowner: ah... could be the cable...
[16:38] <max82fr> can anyone help me to set up my ipod touch via US
[16:38] <max82fr> ?
[16:38] <godowner> nono
[16:38] <max82fr> PLease
[16:38] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: is your login a member of the "dialout" group? also, how are you starting pppd?
[16:38] <godowner> only happens on ubuntu
[16:38] <godowner> XP works fine
[16:38] <unr3a1> so does anyone know what I can do?
[16:38] <dings> godowner: find out what soundcard you have and what driver/module (play with lspci and lsmod). Check if the logs says anything (/var/log). And try to phrase a more spesific question.
[16:38] <dma> how can i make some traductions?
[16:38] <dma> i can translate english to spanish or catalan and viceversa
[16:38] <_VIM_> ludo2612: sounds like you were banned, try asking in #Ubuntu-ops
[16:38] <nooblyalmostid> I am starting pppd by entering the following in a terminal "mvdial mdsl"
[16:38] <torsten_> hello. i have a problem with open certain pdfs in ubuntu. im new to linux, pls help
[16:39] <jpds> !rosetta | dma
[16:39] <nooblyalmostid> if I use sudo mvdial mdsl .. it gives me access but only for "root" usage.
[16:39] <unr3a1> torsten_: what kind of problems?
[16:39] <max82fr> IPOD Touch set up anyone Please
[16:39] <nooblyalmostid> right now I am on irc because I entered the sudo sirc command if I had tried just sirc the internet isn't available.
[16:40] <torsten_> when i open the pdf it shows it for 1-2 seconds and then crashes
[16:40] <ludo2612> _VIM_: thank you
[16:40] <Laeborg> http://pastebin.com/m26048831 - how can I do that? :S
[16:40] <amigamia1> isnt there a simple installation procedure for php?
[16:40] <torsten_> i tried every pdf viewer there is
[16:40] <garrettt> i am  running 8.10 and for some reason it is not recognizing my built in web cam. I have installed skype and cheese and neither recognize my web cam.
[16:40] <unr3a1> torsten_: do you get any error messages?
[16:40] <amigamia1> i searched in the program manager and i chose the php5 but it still is tryingto download the install file
[16:40] <berkes> torsten_: what does the commandline command "file"  tell you about the PDF you are viewing?
[16:41] <torsten_> unr3al yes with okular but not with other programs
[16:41] <unr3a1> torsten_: what error do you get?
[16:41] <torsten_> "The application Okular (okular) crashed and caused the signal 8 (SIGFPE)."
[16:41] <berkes> torsten_: try "file ~/path/to/file.pdf"
[16:41] <torsten_> i googled it
[16:41] <amy__> max82fr: why don't you go to windows chatline, they will be more than welcome to help you on there
[16:41] <theholyduck> sooo.. i just installed ubuntu for the first time to do some testing. and it seems to lock up under high i-o, (like merging a video and audio stream into a video file or large copies) caps and scroll lock both start blinking and i cant do anything but hit reset. anyone got a clue WHY this would happen?
[16:42] <berkes> theholyduck: several
 or ubuntu?!?
[16:42] <_VIM_> max82fr:  try http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/itunes
[16:42] <theholyduck> berkes, well i've never seen it happen on any other distro :P
[16:42] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: can you check if your login is a member of the "dip" group? you can check with the command "groups"
[16:42] <brant> I have a system that had a hard drive issue after a power failure in our warehouse. I booted a rescue disc and ran fsck  it found lots of errors and fixed them but it got short reads and deleted a ton of files
[16:42] <theholyduck> it doesnt happen on my debian install. doesnt happen on my arch install. doesnt happen on my lunar install :P
[16:42] <max82fr> does anyone have an ipod touch here??!!
[16:42] <brant> including apt-get and such
[16:42] <theholyduck> all of wich run roughly the same kernel :P
[16:43] <nooblyalmostid> yes my login has dips listed in groups
[16:43] <brant> so now I need to fix the system but I can't via apt
[16:43] <brant> also it deleted python
[16:43] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: dip, not dips
[16:43] <berkes> theholyduck: still not very specific. Could be anything. Maybe try starting with disabling desktop effects?
[16:43] <amy__> max82fr: ubuntu won't be able to help you
[16:43] <brant> my fileservers files are all still intact
[16:43] <PoloNorte> ubuntu-br
[16:43] <theholyduck> berkes, allready disabled
[16:43] <nooblyalmostid> correct dip sorry I tried to type too fast.
[16:43] <berkes> kay. theholyduck, anything in the logs?
 Well im not running a windows, am I?!
[16:44] <PoloNorte> !br
[16:44] <_VIM_> !attitude | max82fr
[16:44] <theholyduck> berkes, what logs would i check? i get no messages about crashes after starting up again
[16:44] <PoloNorte> !ubuntu-br
[16:44] <brant> so is there any way to do a repair install from the original cd so that I can fix the system without reinstalling it and losing my config files and such? I could back them up and all but this is preferable.
[16:44] <pbeanbag> stupid question.  i just upgraded from hardy to intrepid.  my wireless strength/networking icon is gone from the systemtray area in the upper right.  how do i get it back?
[16:44] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: and if you head to "System -> Administration -> Users and Groups", do you have a check next to "Connect to internet via modem"?
[16:44] <PoloNorte> ajuda em portugues
[16:44] <_VIM_> PoloNorte:  type /join #ubuntu-br
 i know but why talking about windows
[16:44] <brant> pbeanbag, try alt F2 and typing nm-applet
[16:44] <amy__> max82fr: type this command:      /join #windows
[16:44] <torsten_> cant open it :(
[16:45] <_VIM_> Why are you guys redirecting him to #windows for an ipod question?
[16:45] <PoloNorte> thank you vim
[16:45] <berkes> theholyduck: nothing in /var/logs that gives a hint? e.g. something about a certain filesystem not being able to be mounted? anything?
[16:45] <_VIM_> PoloNorte:  :)
[16:45] <nooblyalmostid> sipior: yes
[16:45] <pbeanbag> brant: thats it thanks.  is this going to launch every time i restart now?
[16:45] <brant> if that fixes it pbeanbag then go system --> preferences --> session
[16:45] <unr3a1> torsten_: is there an error?
[16:45] <max82fr> is it only for windows users??
[16:45] <torsten_> no such file or directory
[16:45] <brant> and make sure to add it to startup items
[16:45] <theholyduck> berkes, i'll take a look around
[16:45] <torsten_> i used file ~/home/torsten/name.pdf
[16:45] <unr3a1> torsten_: sounds like a corrupt file
[16:46] <mikeman1> Hey guys have a Q: I am looking to automate a few browsers tasks, so I wanted to load up firefox and have it automatically fill out the needed data and submit form, I dont wanna post via php/perl/etc I'd like to have the actual browser do it. Anyone have an idea what language I could do that in?
[16:46] <torsten_> hm works on my windows though...
[16:46] <torsten_> maybe i should recopy it
[16:46] <torsten_> it opens for a second though
[16:46] <torsten_> and i can see the writing
[16:46] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: anything interesting show up in the log files /var/log/daemon.log and /var/log/messages when you attempt to connect?
[16:46] <pbeanbag> brant: its in there already, this is my first reboot since upgrading, for whatever reason it didnt load.  either way, fixed now.  thanks for the quick reply :)
[16:46] <brant> np :)
[16:46] <berkes> torsten_: ~/home/torsten is wrong.
[16:46] <theholyduck> berkes, but all my filesystems are working perfectly :P
[16:47] <theholyduck> the crashes just seems to happen on high io :P
[16:47] <berkes> should be /home/torsten/name.pdf
[16:47] <theholyduck> i am using lvm and xfs though. wich arent exactly standard ubuntu.
[16:47] <berkes> or ~/name.pdf, ~ is an alias for your hoedir torsten
[16:47] <nooblyalmostid> sipior: vaio-laptop pppd[7345]: must be root to run /usr/sbin/pppd, since it is not setuid-root
[16:47] <torsten_> still does say no such file or directory
[16:48] <berkes> theholyduck: continue the guessing game: memory? what does "free" tell you?
[16:48] <Padraig> guys, I want to use ubuntu, but what is the advandage over it than, say, fedora?
[16:48] <unr3a1> didnt see the ~ before, berkes.  nice catch
[16:48] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: what are the permissions of /usr/sbin/pppd?
[16:48] <brant> Padraig, it depends on your needs.  :) I'm sure each has its advantage and disadvantages
[16:48] <berkes> torsten_: try "ls" first. to see if the file is there?
[16:48] <theholyduck> berkes, well over 3gb free memory
[16:48] <Padraig> Brant: Just general desktop use/programming.
[16:49] <Padraig> also, is there C# support?
[16:49] <brant> Padraig, the difference is probably somewhat nominal. There is good C# support
[16:49] <berkes> theholyduck: I had some problems with swap not mounting correct in the past on ubuntu, hence the guess. Now I am out of ammo.
[16:49] <torsten_> it shows me the green path file
[16:49] <b4cchus> only via mono
[16:49] <brant> I prefer ubuntu because I prefer debs over rpms
[16:49] <Titan8990> Padraig, mono is available in all linux distros
[16:49] <Padraig> mono?
[16:49] <b4cchus> open source .net runtime
[16:49] <Titan8990> !info mono
[16:49] <b4cchus> but it's not 100%
[16:49] <brant> I feel that the package manager in ubuntu/debian is superior to the RPM systems but its an opinion.
[16:50] <theholyduck> brant, i prefer debian over ubuntu because ubuntu is packaged even worse than debian :P
[16:50] <theholyduck> but whatever :P
[16:50] <Padraig> thanks.
[16:50] <Padraig> :)
[16:50] <nooblyalmostid> ;sipior: for dip it is read only
[16:50] <theholyduck> berkes, nothing useful in messages though
[16:50] <theholyduck> as in var/log/messages
[16:50] <brant> ubottu, try installing monodevelop :) that should get you mono and all development packages
[16:50] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: you can set the setuid bit with "sudo chmod u+s /usr/sbin/pppd". understand however that that has some (probably minor) consequences for the security of your system.
[16:50] <torsten_> the file is not corrupt
[16:50] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: no execute for dip?
[16:50] <torsten_> it works on windows
[16:51] <brant> theholyduck, maybe, :) Ubuntu releases a bit more often though, and is more up to date unless I use the unstable repositories in debian
[16:51] <torsten_> berkes, now it shows me pdf file ver 1.4
[16:51] <theholyduck> brant, i always use unstable
[16:51] <berkes> okay. lets try again: how do I get gedit to recognise my .module files as PHP? Currently it puts the syntax highlight wrong on em, and the symbolviewer stays empty.
[16:51] <theholyduck> brant, the nice thing about unstable is that you have a free ticket to ignore packaging standards and everything
[16:52] <brant> lol
[16:52] <JEEBcz> lol
[16:52] <theholyduck> because by being good enough to use it. you also know how to break and fix anything at will
[16:52] <theholyduck> thus i can build static ffmpeg packages. and what not
[16:52] <nooblyalmostid> :sipior: I do not know how to tell if it has execute for dip?
[16:52] <Padraig> What about developing applications, like, is there an SDK, like Visual Studio
[16:52] <Padraig> ?
[16:52] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: by way of comparison, these are the default permissions: -rwsr-xr-- 1 root dip<PHONE_NUMBER>-10-04 22:48 /usr/sbin/pppd
[16:52] <berkes> torsten_: good. At least it /is/ pdf. However, I am not particular fan of okular on KDE4. IT crashed on me waaaayy too often. Did you try another pdf-viewer?
[16:52] <brant> berkes, view ---> highlight mode ---> scripts ---> php
[16:52] <brant> Padraig, there is monodevelop
[16:53] <brant> which has a graphical editor
[16:53] <torsten_> im now installing every pdf viewer there is in my menu
[16:53] <brant> very nice
[16:53] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: you're looking for an "x" in position 7 of the permission list
[16:53] <torsten_> maybe it works
[16:53] <berkes> brant: sure. But its annopying to do that 80 times per day :)
[16:53] <Titan8990> Padraig, monodevelop, EMACs, VIM, Geany, Eclipse    --- take your pick
[16:53] <berkes> brant: I'd like gedit to remember the filetypes somehow.
[16:53] <brant> for c# though monodevelop is the best
[16:53] <brant> berkes, that I don't know about :)
[16:53] <nooblyalmostid> ;sipior: how do you see that, I was checking the permissions by opening the properties of the file.
[16:54] <b4cchus> Padraig: are you using gnome or kde?
[16:54] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: "ls -l /usr/sbin/pppd"
[16:54] <berkes> brant: thanks anyway.
[16:54] <b4cchus> or something else?
[16:54] <nooblyalmostid> :sipior: it is now -rwsrwxr-x 1 almostid dip<PHONE_NUMBER>-11-20 22:58 /usr/sbin/pppd
[16:54] <brant> b4cchus, lxde is pretty nice :)
[16:55] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: why is it not owned by root?
[16:55] <nooblyalmostid> :sipior: after modification using chmod u+s ... as you described.
[16:55] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: try a "sudo chown root /usr/sbin/pppd"
[16:55] <nooblyalmostid> :sipior: because I have been erm.. playing? with it as described by my google searches :(
[16:55] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: ah :-)
[16:56] <torsten_> thanks berkes, it works with xpdf. thank you for your time
[16:56] <nooblyalmostid> :sipior: -rwxrwxr-x 1 root dip<PHONE_NUMBER>-11-20 22:58 /usr/sbin/pppd
[16:56] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: be sure to re-add the setuid bit, since the chown will automatically clear it.
[16:57] <jedi06> when there is an exception is it common to send it to a server so you can try to fix it?
[16:57] <nooblyalmostid> :sipior: ok
[16:57] <berkes> torsten_: no prob. If you are not on kde, try the gnome default one too. its called "Document Viewer"
[16:57] <berkes> torsten_: http://www.gnome.org/projects/evince
[16:57] <nooblyalmostid> :sipior: I will test that change, thank you very much for your help.
[16:58] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: no trouble
[16:58] <[DarkSun]> does anyone know offhand if the sunblade 2000 is supported with the sparc release? i did a google search got a bunch of forum threads that didnt answer my question....
[16:59] <del> Hey, I want to use my existing gnupg-keys (private and public) within nautilus, thus import them into seahorse
[16:59] <brant> Is there any way to do a repair installation of ubuntu using the original discs that doesn't erase the /etc and /boot directories? Or a way to use the files on the cd to run apt on the local system?
[16:59] <Titan8990> !offtopic | [DarkSun]
[16:59] <del> But while importing an ascii armored private key, seahorse says "imported key but then couldn't find it in keyring"
[17:00] <[DarkSun]> i belive thats on-topic as it is for support, but ill be a goodboy and head over that way...
[17:00] <brant> thats a bot
[17:00] <brant> I think said bot misinterpreted you
[17:00] <del> Tried ubuntu-tool -i with the same effect
[17:00] <Titan8990> [DarkSun], on topic? ubuntu doesn't have a sparc release, debian does
[17:00] <vadi2_> Hi, what does kacpid do? It is using more CPU than Xorg
[17:00] <Absolute0> I modified the settings of one of my windows permissions and now it won't start at all and there is no way to change it back.
[17:00] <del> Does anyone handled to import an existing private gnupg-key into seahorse in 8.10?
[17:00] <Absolute0> Is there any general partition mount manager in ubuntu?
[17:00] <brant> Absolute0, try gparted
[17:00] <MindSpark> how do I make apt rerun the postinstallation scripts ?
[17:01] <Absolute0> brant not partitioner
[17:01] <[DarkSun]> titan, i belive your wrong as i have found talk about ubuntu being installed on sparc boxes witha sparc distro... (havent looked for said distro yet)
[17:01] <Absolute0> i need to mount a drive
[17:01] <fosco_> MindSpark, sudo dpkg-reconfigure package
[17:01] <brant> nautilus should do it...
[17:01] <Absolute0> i changed the mount point in settings
[17:01] <Absolute0> and now it fails
[17:01] <brant> what "settings" ?
[17:01] <Ghoul> is there a GUI utility that deals with multiple monitors in ubuntu?
[17:01] <MindSpark> fosco_, thanks !
[17:02] <brant> Ghoul, used to be displayconfig-gtk
[17:02] <Absolute0> brant: right click->drive->settings->mount point
[17:02] <brant> I don't know if its still around
[17:02] <brant> ahh ok let me look at what that does Absolute0
[17:02] <berkes> Ghoul: yup. here the "System > Settings > display"  has dual head support.
[17:02] <berkes> its how I configured my dualhead, Ghoul.
[17:03] <noobalmostid> :sipior: you still here?
[17:03] <theholyduck> berkes, i found out why ubuntu kept crashing :P
[17:03] <sipior> noobalmostid: i am.
[17:03] <brant> Absolute0, I'd first try going to gconf-editor and going apps---> nautilus
[17:04] <brant> and look around to see if anything there has settings relating to your mount point
[17:04] <paulo39> hi, i have the 2,4-version of OpenOffice, i want to install the 3.0.1-version one. i went to OpenOffice's site and download the .deb package. when i install that version, the current version will automatically be uninstalled? and i'm doing everything right installing this way? because i search on Synaptic and i didn't find any OpenOffice package there
[17:04] <noobalmostid> :sipior: ok now I can open sirc through a terminal window without having to sudo it.. but things like firefos and pidgin still do not see the internet.
[17:04] <brant> Absolute0, and if it does, delete it
[17:04] <theholyduck> berkes, ffmpeg doesnt write to disc untill ram filesystem cache is full :P or atleast a delay simlar to that. where as me with my 4gb of ram forgot to enable my new lvm swap partition.
[17:05] <brant> paulo39, I would say to use the ppa repository
[17:05] <brant> instead of the .debs from openoffice.org
[17:05] <sipior> noobalmostid: check to see if the interface is up with "/sbin/ifconfig"
[17:05] <theholyduck> thus ffmpeg muxes untill it fills up my ram completely. then crashes the system :P
[17:05] <Grim76__> paulo39: This is the link that I used for what you are trying to do. http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-To-Install-OpenOffice-org-3-0-in-Ubuntu-8-10-96449.shtml
[17:05] <brant> paullou, https://launchpad.net/~openoffice-pkgs/+archive/ppa is a link to the ppa
[17:05] <sipior> noobalmostid: it will probably be called something like "ppp0"
[17:05] <brant> if you're on hardy or intrepid
[17:05] <paulo39> ppa repository? i'm afraid i don't have it added to my repositories, i will investigate
[17:06] <noobalmostid> :sipior: ok looking now.
[17:06] <UncleD-> I'm on ubuntu and I want to install the latest php-gd, but when I install it, my system doesn't appear to use it, it uses my old non "gd" php. How can I fix that?
[17:06] <Killeroid> hi guys, i was messing with wget options and used the -b option to make wget download in background. i want to know how to invoke wget to the foreground so that I can see how much of the download is done
[17:06] <brant> paulo39, you don't have it added yet of course. Thats what the links for. If you add that you'll get new versions of openoffice through the update manager
[17:06] <brant> killbillkill, just use fg
[17:06] <brant>  so  fg PID   where PID is the process ID
[17:07] <brant> when you backgrounded it it should have gave the pid or job number
[17:07] <brant> usually just    fg 1
[17:07] <noobalmostid> :sipior: have  inet addr:<IP_ADDRESS>  P-t-P:<IP_ADDRESS>  Mask:<IP_ADDRESS>
[17:07] <paulo39> brant, ok, i'm going to follow that tuturial, thanks
[17:08] <sipior> noobalmostid: check to see if you have a default route set with "route -n"
[17:08] <Titan8990> Killeroid, when you have a need to do that, you should specify a log dir
[17:08] <Titan8990> Killeroid, and then tail the log to see the progress
[17:08] <sipior> noobalmostid: also, verify that you can ping the other end of that link
[17:09] <Killeroid> brant: fg doesnt work.
[17:09] <noobalmostid> :sipior: the only things w/ a non-0 ip are genmask and destination
[17:09] <Killeroid> Titan8990: the download is already in progress and i dont want to kill it and restart it
[17:09] <sipior> noobalmostid: could you pastebin the result of route -n?
[17:09] <Titan8990> Killeroid, out of luck, but you know of next time
[17:10] <sipior> noobalmostid: and ifconfig too, while you're at it.

[17:10] <sipior> hmm
[17:11] <linduxed> my ubuntu laptop has an incredibly slow shutdown. the "ubuntu bar" moves at a normal speed, but after the screen goes black it dwells for something like half a minute or more... How do i diagnose what the problem could be?
[17:11] <noyalmostid> :sipior: I guess not .. I got booted.
[17:11] <sipior> !paste > noyalmostid
[17:12] <noyalmostid> :sipior: lol ok paste coming lol
[17:13] <jcapinc> is this a good place for shell scripting questions?
[17:13] <Titan8990> jcapinc, try your luck
[17:13] <sipior> jcapinc: not really, more for ubuntu support proper. you can find a channel for your shell though
[17:14] <sipior> jcapinc: then again, it is slow at the moment :-)
[17:14] <Marfi> Why doesn't the developers of KDE and Gnome just merge?
[17:14] <jcapinc> how would I open a terminal and have that terminal run a command in a shell script?  just the reguler standard gterminal for ubuntu
[17:14] <markl_> it looks like "linux-igd" is marked as obsolete in ubuntu - what is the replacement?
[17:14] <erUSUL> Marfi: becouse they do not want to
[17:14] <Marfi> jcapinc: applications > accessories > terminal
[17:14] <jcapinc> Marfi, because thay have very different views on how a desktop should look and behave, and that is a good thing
[17:14] <noyalmostid> :sipior: unable to access http://paste.ubuntu.com.. aka I don't know how to call an browser as "root" yet..
[17:14] <Titan8990> jcapinc, sh /path/to/my/script
[17:15] <Titan8990> jcapinc, maybe I don't understand?
[17:15] <Marfi> jcapinc: They should. I love the stability of gnome, and the prettiness of KDE. erUSUL I think they shoud
[17:15] <jcapinc> Titan8990, I want a shell script to open a terminal window, and then in that window run a custom command
[17:15] <sipior> noyalmostid: you can just use the machine you're using irc from to enter the text.
[17:15] <fosco_> Marfi, 2 projects are always better than one
[17:15] <Titan8990> jcapinc, why not just open the terminal and run the script/command?
[17:16] <Marfi> fosco_:  I can see what you mean
[17:16] <jcapinc> because I am writting something for a neophyte and I want to make it easy
[17:16] <noyalmostid> :sipior: I opened irc via a terminal window.
[17:16] <shavin> I wish to get java on my pendrive ubuntu. i dont want to install full jdk. cant i just get a jre so that java apps can run?
[17:16] <noyalmostid> :sipior: sirc to be more correct.
[17:16] <sipior> jcapinc: if i understand you correctly, you want the "-e" option for gnome-terminal
[17:17] <markl_> anyone here familiar with upnp or igd
[17:17] <churl> the newest update may have messed up my sound.  I've never had a sound issue before right now.  I dont know where to start.
[17:17] <sipior> noyalmostid: so you have network access from the machine already? try installing the "pastebinit" package.
[17:17] <noyalmostid> :sipior: ok
[17:17] <sipior> noyalmostid: that will allow you to send the output without a web browser.
[17:18] <sipior> noyalmostid: but the fact that you apparently have network access means the data are probably not relevant :-)
[17:19] <sipior> noyalmostid: what happens when you start up a web browser? also, can you ping an external host?
[17:20] <marllus> #ubuntubr
[17:21] <adam> #xubuntu
[17:21] <noyalmostid> :sipior: http://pastebin.com/f1e494516
[17:21] <UncleD-> I did "sudo apt-get install php5-gd", restarted apache, and its still not enabled.
[17:21] <UncleD-> I think my server is using a non "gd" version of php5. how can i check?
[17:22] <noyalmostid> :sipior: I will try an external host.
[17:23] <noyalmostid> :sipior: when I use system -> network tools -> ping -> google.com I do get results.
[17:23] <sipior> noyalmostid: what happens when you launch a web browser?
[17:23] <Pretto> !package aptoncd
[17:24] <noyalmostid> :sipior: when I open firefox ant try to navigate to an non-local address it says that "currently in offline mode and cannot browse the web"
[17:24] <sipior> noyalmostid: oh :-) check the file menu, and turn that option off
[17:24]  * sipior wonders about the point of an "offline mode" for a web browser
[17:25] <noyalmostid> :sipior: I am very red-faced at the moment.
[17:25] <strick9> is anyone having a problem with firefox running slow in ubuntu?
[17:25] <sipior> noyalmostid: eh, it happens :-) i happen to think the existence of "Work Offline" should be cause for a bug report, but what can you do...
[17:26] <noyalmostid> :sipior: hmm but pidgin still says "waiting for network connection" that is what I had been using to judge wether or not I was connected to the net..
[17:26] <noyalmostid> ;sipior: guess I will read thru the pidgin man for a bit, thanks for all of your help.
[17:26] <sipior> noyalmostid: try restarting it. it may have cached dns resolver information
[17:26] <mr_daniel> strick9: you mean when you try to open a new firefox windows? Or when a site uses flash?
[17:26] <andresmh> i uninstalled by mistake the gnome network applet and now I cannot connect to my network. Since I cannot connect I cannot reinstall it via synaptic. I am now on my Vista partition . How can I reinstall the gnome network applet?
[17:26] <strick9> mr_daniel, sites that are heavy with javascript cause the problem, twiddla.com for instance
[17:27] <Droopsta915> I installed xp on my master harddrive and it wiped my bootloader. Two days later and a SuperGrubDisk, I'm back! If anyone needs help reloading the bootloader let me know, it's easier than it sounds:)
[17:28] <Othor> how do you save channels in Xchat-GNOME?
[17:29] <noyalmostid> heh I am getting better I figured out how to sign off of sirc aswell.
[17:29] <strick9> its a good exaple because its very javascript heavy but the site runs great in xp, vista, and Suse linux, barely runs in ubuntu
[17:30] <darthanubis> ALL of my menu bars for all apps except Firefox no long appear to show?!?
[17:30] <lyhana8> hi, does anyone can advice me some alternative to Skype ?
[17:30] <LjjjL> darthanubis: uh, have you attempted to install sometthing called gnome-globalmenu?
[17:31] <mr_daniel> strick9: there is a #firefox channel on FreeNode. Maybe they can help you with your JavaScript issue
[17:31] <strick9> this is specific to ubuntu
[17:31] <darthanubis> LjjjL, YES!
[17:32] <LjjjL> darthanubis: and that's just a detail isn't it... *sigh* ok, have you actually enabled the menubar applet in your panel?
[17:32] <darthanubis> yes
[17:32] <andresmh> i uninstalled by mistake the gnome network applet and now I cannot connect to my network. Since I cannot connect I cannot reinstall it via synaptic. I am now on my Vista partition . How can I reinstall the gnome network applet?
[17:32] <shadeslayer> anyone familiar with powertop??
[17:32] <darthanubis> so basically the global menu is like MAc and all menus run from that?
[17:32] <darthanubis> my bad
[17:32] <LjjjL> darthanubis: yes, what did you think it was?
[17:33] <shadeslayer> andresmh: how come you lost your network applet??
[17:33] <darthanubis> dude I forgot I installed it
[17:33] <darthanubis> sheesh
[17:33] <darthanubis> thx for the reminder
[17:34] <LjjjL> !ekiga | lyhana8
[17:34] <andresmh> shadeslayer: i installed something that uninstalled it i think.
[17:34] <LjjjL> lyhana8: err, ekiga anyway
[17:34] <shadeslayer> andresmh: restart gnome
[17:34] <LjjjL> lyhana8: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ekiga
[17:34] <shadeslayer> i.e remove your gnome folder
[17:34] <shadeslayer> it will reset everything
[17:35] <shadeslayer> andresmh: itll give you everything as default
[17:35] <lyhana8> yep seem to be the best one LjjjL
[17:35] <andresmh> shadeslayer: i don't think that would do it, the gnome network applet was uninstalled not removed from the bar
[17:36] <LjjjL> lyhana8: it's a SIP client, it's interoperable with any other SIP software or device, although it's not interoperable with Skype (which uses a prroprietary protocol)
[17:36] <shadeslayer> andresmh: no harm in trying right?? rm -rf ~/.gnome* && rm -rf .gconf*
[17:36] <shadeslayer> that *probably* will give you the applet back
[17:37] <lyhana8> LjjjL: yep but i've few contacts (most of them on *ubuntu) so it's okay
[17:37] <UncleD-> apt-get source php5 is giving me this error "E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list"
[17:37] <UncleD-> I have intrepid, any suggestions?
[17:37] <shadeslayer> :O
[17:37] <shadeslayer> you have no sources :O
[17:37] <LjjjL> shadeslayer: isn't that a bit extreme? if it's a panel problem, then !resetpanel should fix it without removing all of gnome's configuration
[17:37] <shadeslayer> ><
[17:37] <UncleD-> shadeslayer: i have a sources.list with stuff in it
[17:38] <shadeslayer> LjjjL: uh nope
[17:38] <shadeslayer> UncleD-: i was yanking your wand
[17:38] <shadeslayer> ><
[17:38] <LjjjL> shadeslayer: if it's just that gnome's network manager isn't in the session anymore, it can be readded from preferences/session, and if it's been uninstalled, well one just reinstalls it
[17:38] <shadeslayer> LjjjL: he said he lost his net cnnection too
[17:38] <shadeslayer> *connection
[17:38] <churl> Sound is no longer working after update.  Any help on where to start?
[17:38] <shadeslayer> which i cant understand how
[17:39] <shubbar> i m trying to start GIMP in a different language, but getting the error "(gimp:6282): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library."
[17:39] <shadeslayer> churl: HDA intel sound card??
[17:39] <LjjjL> shadeslayer: me neither, but i can't see how removing gnome's config would fix it. he might have removed network-manager entirely, in that case i'd configure the network manually from /etc/network/interfaces and then reinstall it
[17:39] <benxx> how do you update seamonkey
[17:40] <shadeslayer> LjjjL: well hopefully that will bring all applets back
[17:40] <shadeslayer> if not hell come back,duh
[17:40] <LjjjL> shadeslayer: yeah but it will also destroy all his gnome settings, won't it?
[17:40] <shadeslayer> LjjjL: hmm,well yes,but you can configure gnome in 15 min,unlike KDE
[17:41] <shadeslayer> i forgot my question ><
[17:41] <UncleD-> I have intrepid, any suggestions?
[17:41] <UncleD-> apt-get source php5 is giving me this error "E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list"
[17:42] <churl> shadeslayer: yes
[17:42] <LjjjL> UncleD-: your /etc/apt/sources.list should have some "deb-src" lines in it (NOT commented out). also, why do you want to get the source of php?
[17:42] <shadeslayer> !intelhda | churl
[17:43] <churl> neat
[17:43] <shadeslayer> :)
[17:43] <churl> :)
[17:44] <CosmiChaos> can you say "pwng"? :=)
[17:44] <shadeslayer> ?
[17:44] <shadeslayer> pwng
[17:44] <shadeslayer> :P
[17:44] <profanephobia> where can i get mt-daapd support
[17:45] <shadeslayer> anyone using powertop???
[17:46] <CosmiChaos> shadeslayer: i mean can you speak it
[17:46] <CosmiChaos> :p
[17:46] <boot_loop> which is better for irc chat, weechat-curses or irssi?
[17:46] <shadeslayer> nope
[17:46] <LjjjL> !better
[17:47] <shadeslayer> i agree
[17:47] <shadeslayer> boot_loop: like CLI??
[17:47] <CosmiChaos> xchat pwned
[17:47] <shadeslayer> pawned??
[17:47] <shadeslayer> >_>
[17:47] <boot_loop> I don't know the differences in features between weechat and irssi
[17:47] <Doonz> boot_loop: irssi
[17:47] <UncleD-> E: Could not open file /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_intrepid_universe_source_Sources
[17:48] <UncleD-> how do i fix that?
[17:48] <shadeslayer> irssi--> CLI but more features
[17:48] <CosmiChaos> pwage, to pwn, pwned pwned" :D
[17:48] <CosmiChaos> pwnage
[17:48] <shadeslayer> weechat-->no idea
[17:48] <shadeslayer> lol
[17:48] <boot_loop> pardon my ignorance, but what is CLI?
[17:48] <shadeslayer> pawnage??
[17:48] <CosmiChaos> no pwnage
[17:48] <shadeslayer> boot_loop: like DOS
[17:48] <shadeslayer> command line interface
[17:48] <boot_loop> oh, gotcha... yeah both are command based
[17:49] <shadeslayer> ><
[17:49] <boot_loop> I am using weechat right now, must open in terminal
[17:49] <shadeslayer> then use either
[17:49] <boot_loop> ok cool
[17:49] <shadeslayer> irssi is more famous
[17:49] <boot_loop> ok cool
[17:50] <robert3353> How do I get the SPDIF optical port working on my sound card?  I have a C-media CMI8788 chipset
[17:50] <shadeslayer> SPDIF optical port
[17:50] <shadeslayer> never heard of one of those
[17:50] <shadeslayer> !SPDIF
[17:51] <robert3353> it is the digital vs analog input and output
[17:51] <LjL> !fishing
[17:51] <pipegeek> Hey, is there any way (other than writing a script and adding it to System/Preferences/Sessions) to get network filesystems to mount on login?
[17:52] <UncleD-> How do I fix this? E: Could not open file /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_intrepid_universe_source_Sources
[17:52] <shadeslayer> ok ok
[17:52] <shadeslayer> UncleD-: not to you :)
[17:53] <Hydrant2> anyone know how to get a source code package for ubuntu, and have it extracted with patches applied?
[17:53] <shadeslayer> can some one tell me something which reduces power consumption
[17:53] <kesi> Hi all, I can't play DVDs on my ubuntu desktop though I can play the same one on my Ubuntu laptop.
[17:53] <LjL> Hydrant2: "apt-get source packagename" will get it... it won't apply the patches AFAIK, that'll only happen when you tell it to build - there might be a separate command to perform that step but it escapes me
[17:54] <Hydrant2> yah, I thought there was some command to get it to actually apply patches / build
[17:54] <plic> has anyone ever tried compiling mesaGLUT package?
[17:54] <plic> i seem to have problem comiling it
[17:54] <LjL> Hydrant2: to apply patches *AND* build, yes there is, it's "apt-get --build source packagename"
[17:54] <Hydrant2> I'm trying to debug something in libgcc2.so, and I need to get source code that matches up with the symbols
[17:54] <plic> i tihnk i am missing dependencies
[17:54] <LjL> Hydrant2: to apply patches and *NOT* build, i don't know
[17:55] <plic> how can i know about dependencies to a particular package
[17:56] <vandal> i cant view one of my hard drives in Vista but in Ubuntu it is fine. Vista just sees it as a raw drive. Anyone have any ideas?
[17:56] <LjL> plic: i'm assuming you don't mean a .deb package?
[17:56] <mobodo> how does it work if I want to have a "shared" folder where every file created there is rw by the "shared" group when it is created?
[17:56] <whiskers-> vandal: ask microsoft?
[17:56] <craigbass1976> I can ssh -l different-user to another box, but can't seem to find the means to scp as another user.  Is it possible?  I just got a web host yesterday with shell access, and having a different username is going to be a pain, unless I can copy files up from my dev box (user on the box is craig) to the live box (where the user is something else)
[17:57] <shadeslayer> vandal: is ubuntu installed on it??
[17:57] <stdin> craigbass1976: scp use@hosrt
[17:57] <whiskers-> craigbass1976: user@host
[17:57] <shadeslayer> vandal: if so its probably ext3 formated
[17:57] <stdin> -r
[17:58] <whiskers-> craigbass1976: you have a dev box?
[17:58] <vandal> the drive is ntfs - it used to be visible in both Vista and Ubuntu. Now only Ubuntu. I copied 2 files to the drive last night in linux and that seems to of changed something
[17:58] <shadeslayer> vandal: wubi install ??
[17:58] <UncleD-> How do I fix this? E: Could not open file /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_intrepid_universe_source_Sources <-- i'm trying to get php5 source with apt-get
[17:59] <stdin> UncleD-: run "sudo apt-get update"
[17:59] <UncleD-> stdin: thanks :) it worked
[18:00] <UncleD-> stdin: i'm trying to do things the ubuntu/debian way
[18:00] <UncleD-> stdin: with packages and the whole 9 yards
[18:00] <b1shop> i have two 3ware raid cards.  one with 12 1TB disk, the other with 8 1TB disks.  how should i format them to get the largest possible single volume?
[18:00] <nescio_> nescio
[18:00] <stdin> UncleD-: after you add a software repository, you need to update the package cache, that's what the command does
[18:00] <b1shop> keep in mind that I already made them RAID5 with a hot spare for each unit
[18:00] <UncleD-> stdin: makes perfect sense
[18:01] <UncleD-> stdin: yesterday i went from fiesty 6.04 to intrepid 8.10 :)
[18:01] <UncleD-> stdin: i've been a bit out of date
[18:01] <LjL> i have a TV card with a remote control. the remove seems to be recognized, because an infrared-related module is loaded, and it shows up as /dev/input/event5 apparently. but if i "cat" that, or try to use lirc, nothing ever happens. ideas?
[18:02] <kesi> hi all, what do I need to install in order to play my DVD's on my ubuntu machine?  I did something awhile back to get them to play on my laptop and don't remember what
[18:02] <LjL> !dvd
[18:04] <craigbass1976> stdin, thanks
[18:05] <vandal> i use vlc to play dvds - not sure if it comes with all the necessary codecs etc

[18:06] <kopolee11> hello everyone. I am thinking about downgrading from 64-bit 8.10 ubuntu to 32-bit 8.10 ubuntu. The reason is to run apps like google gears and tweetdeck without the hassle. Does anyone know if there will be many hassles. (I have a seprate home partition)
[18:06] <shadeslayer> kopolee11: doesnt 64 bit run faaster

[18:08] <geeksquad> make that 1448
[18:08] <mobodo> boot_loop: set the EDITOR variable in your bashrc
[18:08] <plic> @LjL no not a .deb package
[18:08] <kopolee11> ok, thanks defrysk. and just to make clear, i'm not downgrading to an older form of ubuntu, just the 32 bit version, because it runs more apps
[18:08] <mobodo> boot_loop: EDITOR=scite or whatever
[18:08] <LjL> mobodo: give the directory group permissions for everything, set the suid group bit on it
[18:08] <boot_loop> mobodo: thank you
[18:08] <LjL> plic: then all you can do is check the documentation for dependencies
[18:08] <defrysk> kopolee11, as long as its a fresh install it should be no serious issue

[18:22] <npshmear> the*
[18:23] <shadeslayer> bye all
[18:23] <Othor> I have a AMD Athlon X2 Dual Core 6400+ and when my system is under a lot high CPU load it only uses ~50% (100% of one core) at any given time. This is even with multipliable programs (threads). is there anyway i can test to see if it will use 100% of both CPUs at the same time? Ubuntu 8.10 64bit
[18:23] <shadeslayer> rainium_mint: use gparted
[18:23] <shadeslayer> ><
[18:23] <rainium_mint> its more complicated... i have a problem
[18:23] <oCean_> npshmear: JohnGrisham apt-cache search does not search through internet. It searches the metadata in local cache. Use apt-get update to resync those local package index files
[18:23] <geeksquad1> i am gonna reboot
[18:24] <brant> Is there any way to do a repair installation of ubuntu using the original discs that doesn't erase the /etc and /boot directories? Or a way to use the files on the cd to run apt on the local system?
[18:24] <mib_rug7yxm5> I just bought an Hp laptop modle tx2510us and im using virtualiztion to run a vmware image but my wireless card isnt being detected by aircrack-ng script i looked online I have a Broadcom 4322 I beleive I downloaded the source to compile the driver i get to the end but for some reason I cant get it working gives me error saying insmod: error inserting wl.ko -1: unknown symbol in module anyone?

[18:25] <brant> well
[18:25] <rainium_mint> i tried partitioning my disk to install fedora along with ubuntu but the installation failed and now when i try to boot up it leaves me on a screen in which i am suppose to use commands.. the prompt is 'initramfs'
[18:25] <brant> no one knows how ;)
[18:25] <geeksquad1> mib_rug7yxm5: we do not know how to fix your question
[18:25] <adityab> I am getting error while running test suites on tcl8.5 for lfs system
[18:25] <mib_rug7yxm5> damn
[18:25] <LjL> brant: uhm no not really (to the first question, not sure about the latter), although you can move /etc and /boot to some backup names, and use the alternate cd to reinstall without reformatting - will have to do some fiddling in the alt+f2 console to achieve that
[18:25] <brant> mib_rug7yxm5, you might look for support from the driver maintainer?
[18:25] <sanjud> brant what are you trying to do?
[18:25] <Titan8990> mib_rug7yxm5, perhaps you should try #aircrack-ng
[18:25] <brant> LjL not a bad idea
[18:25] <LjL> brant: but what is the problem that makes you need to do a recovery install?
[18:26] <rainium_mint> did anyone catch that?
[18:26] <Titan8990> mib_rug7yxm5, although I don't think they are very welcoming of new linux users....
[18:26] <brant> sanity-, I had a power failure that caused some file damage
[18:26] <brant> so some files were gone after fsck
[18:26] <rainium_mint> i tried partitioning my disk to install fedora along with ubuntu but the installation failed and now when i try to boot up it leaves me on a screen in which i am suppose to use commands.. the prompt is 'initramfs'
[18:26] <brant> like apt-get
