[11:00] <Venin> hehe.. yeah.. i wanna watch some video clips now.. but i dont want to reboot :p
[11:00] <RJ2> anyone else having the "mouse buttons stop working" problem?
[11:00] <scientes> i like the functionality and have a fast macine but animations are honestly uite useless and nauseating
[11:00] <scientes> most things you can only make really fast but cant turn off transition animation on
[11:00] <dr_willis> !ccsm | scientes
[11:00] <col_panik> jokeusa using your administrative account you can edit their account to -not- be able to do that
[11:01] <scientes> oi am using that
[11:01] <dr_willis> scientes,  i disable most stuff. and just enable what i like
[11:01] <scientes> the advanced stuff has good functions and key bindings but the animations suck if you dont like it
[11:02] <scientes> i just want all the animations to be 2 frames
[11:02] <scientes> except like the cube which is very simple and you are in control
[11:02] <ziroday> scientes: you can still run compiz with no animations if you want
[11:02] <scientes> how? you have to turn off viewport switching etc
[11:02] <scientes> cause those things have mandatory animations
[11:02] <ziroday> scientes: disable the animations plugin in ccsm
[11:03] <sken> i installed TeX Live: Greek typesetting
[11:03] <col_panik> speaking of video, i need a program to split a video file into individual frames for editting...anybody have a suggestion?  I'd like to do it in bulk.
[11:03] <sken> can i open it?
[11:03] <sken> is it for subtitles?

[11:05] <ActionParsnip1> hanibana: debian support is in #debian
[11:05] <wers> in what text file can i find the gconf settings?
[11:05] <col_panik> jokeusa then unlock with your password then highlight the account in question
[11:05] <ziroday> hanibana: you have to wait, we can't support debian here, we support ubuntu
[11:05] <pretender> is there a way to display my ext3 data partitions on the desktop
[11:06] <hanibana> support...!
[11:06] <col_panik> jokeusa then properties of the account
[11:06] <hanibana> ok bye
[11:06] <sken> does anybody know?
[11:06] <abid-linux> sken: ??
[11:06] <col_panik> jokeusa then just turn off their administrative check box.....that should do it I'd thnk
[11:06] <Wavesonics> I'm using NVidia's XServer tool, but I can't get it to allow me to select the resolution and refresh rate I want for my 2nd monitor, any ideas?
[11:07] <sken> i installed TeX Live: Greek typesetting
[11:07] <sken> can i open it? 	<sken>	is it for subtitles?
[11:07] <abid-linux> hi all
[11:08] <col_panik> jokeusa from there you should see a variety of extra access things you might want to consider if they really need access to
[11:08] <sken> abid-linux?
[11:08] <abid-linux> sken: ?
[11:08] <jokeusa> col_panik - ooohh, so its one button
[11:08] <jokeusa> cool
[11:08] <col_panik> jokeusa yup
[11:08] <Sharp_eyes> afdf
[11:08] <col_panik> =)
[11:08] <rabe> hi again...
[11:09] <sken> i already asked
[11:09] <Sharp_eyes> ?
[11:09] <col_panik> jokeusa but i am by no means an "expert"
[11:09] <rabe> could anyone give me a hint how to open a fileserver path in nautilus like in windows using \\192.168.x.x ??
[11:10] <dr_willis> rabe,  its smb://workgroup/server/share  I think
[11:10] <Sharp_eyes> do any body know that how can i use vnc in ubuntu
[11:10] <Sharp_eyes> ???
[11:10] <dr_willis> rabe,  gnome file manager has a network places/connect to .... features
[11:10] <nickgarvey> !vnc | Sharp_eyes
[11:10] <col_panik> Sharp_eyes, might want to specify which system is the host etc in the question
[11:10] <dr_willis> Sharp_eyes,  deopends on what you mean.. under gnome - remote desktop-> enable to share current desktop
[11:10] <dr_willis> or install a vncserver for a 'hidden' desktop
[11:11] <nickgarvey> Sharp_eyes: actually that's not particularly useful, don't bother going to that link useless you want it encrypted
[11:11] <rabe> yes its the right way...
[11:11] <rabe> its loading...
[11:11] <col_panik> anybody have a suggestion for a channel to request assistance re: video editting?
[11:11] <ActionParsnip1> dr_willis: idont think you need workgroup, I think thats defined elsewhere
[11:11] <dr_willis> I was suprised at how well the Gnome desktop shareing worked.
[11:11] <Sharp_eyes> i want to view my clients desktop throught vnc and he is using windows vista and im using linux
[11:11] <dr_willis> ActionParsnip1,  :) i tend to use fusesmb these days..   dont have a gnome file manager handy
[11:11] <maxagaz> how to read rmvb videos on intrepid ibex ?
[11:12] <ActionParsnip1> dr_willis: i use sm.conf and mount
[11:12] <rabe> ah no it does not work....
[11:12] <sken> how do i know that i have the latest version of ubuntu
[11:12] <ActionParsnip1> !realplayer | maxagaz
[11:12] <cheniatata> hello..
[11:12] <scientes> turning off the animation plugin didnt turn off the animations
[11:12] <col_panik> sken latest is 8.10
[11:12] <cheniatata> hello..
[11:12] <jim_p> sken: uname -r
[11:12] <scientes> wait i guess it just had to kick in
[11:12] <pretender> how can i display my ext3 storage partitions on the desktop?
[11:12] <jim_p> sken: this will tell you the kernel, which identifies the version
[11:12] <scientes> thx
[11:13] <dr_willis> pretender,  just drag/drop make a link from whever its mounted to the desktop
[11:13] <ActionParsnip1> pretender: mount them in /media
[11:13] <sken> 2.6.27-7-generic
[11:13] <sken> is that the latest?
[11:13] <ActionParsnip1> pretender: or symlink them
[11:13] <dr_willis> or just put them in the 'places' menu :)
[11:13] <linux_trojan> I wonder if MythTV can work from within VMware?
[11:13] <jim_p> pretender: sken you are on 8.10, latest
[11:13] <jim_p> oooops
[11:13] <ActionParsnip1> sken: kernels arent about latest, its about what supports all your hardware
[11:13] <Sharp_eyes> dr_willis: can i use default remote for viewing some 1s pc
[11:13] <dr_willis> linux_trojan,  it may not be able to access the tv tuner hardware that way
[11:13] <RJ2> well, if anyone else has the "mouse buttons stop working" problem, it seems like adding the mouse/kb options back into xorg.conf, and stopping hal might mitigate it, fwiw
[11:13] <jim_p> sken: you are on 8.10, latest
[11:13] <linux_trojan> yea
[11:13] <dr_willis> Sharp_eyes,  thats what its designed for...
[11:13] <col_panik> sken yup
[11:14] <m4steR> there is a log for passwords changes?
[11:14] <linux_trojan> does MythTV come bundled with UBUNTU or is it a different OS?
[11:14] <m4steR> i'm under ubuntu 8.10
[11:14] <boozkachu> Hi, does anyone else have to do 'sudo ufw enable/disable' to get bridged networking to work in virtualbox ose?
[11:14] <sken> i heard about 2.6.27-15
[11:14] <Sharp_eyes> but the person is using windows vista
[11:14] <ADREAL> hii mijn friends
[11:14] <RJ2> linux_trojan: google mythbuntu
[11:14] <linux_trojan> I think my TV card will  work Hauppauge 1250
[11:14] <jim_p> linux_trojan: mythtv is an app. it comes preinstalled in mythbuntu and mythdora :|
[11:14] <sken> that's why i'm telling you
[11:14] <ActionParsnip1> sken: for latest kernels go to www.kernel.org
[11:15] <linux_trojan> ok so I have to download the mythbuntu OS cd
[11:15] <jim_p> linux_trojan: *a media center app. there other apps for the job too
[11:15] <linux_trojan> ?
[11:15] <maxagaz> ActionParsnip1: it didn't help
[11:15] <ActionParsnip1> sken: you dont need a new one if the kernel you have runs all your hardware
[11:15] <jim_p> linux_trojan: no you can just install mythtv on yours
[11:15] <maxagaz> ActionParsnip1: ubuntu-restricted-extras is already the newest version.
[11:15] <ActionParsnip1> maxagaz: maye they need tweaking
[11:16] <ziroday> linux_trojan: correct, you can also install mythtv and the mythbuntu packages in your current ubuntu install
[11:16] <linux_trojan> just install mythtv directly into ubuntu8.10?
[11:16] <ActionParsnip1> maxagaz: with some settings or similar
[11:16] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: yeah why not?
[11:16] <linux_trojan> ok I understand
[11:16] <linux_trojan> I might just install Ubuntu over Vista this weekend
[11:17] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: good choice
[11:17] <waqas> I'm trying to screen to someone else's screen. I have root. Doing screen -r someone/17210.lppd I get "There is a screen on: 17210.lppx (Private)" "There is no screen to be attached matching 17210.lppd." - any idea how I can get this to work?
[11:17] <jim_p> linux_trojan: yea... sudo apt-get install....
[11:17] <sken> does anybody know about text live Greek typesetting?
[11:17] <sken> can i open it?
[11:17] <linux_trojan> yea I gotta write this down brb
[11:17] <sken> is it for subtitles?
[11:17] <jim_p> sken: iso-8859-7
[11:17] <dr_willis> linux_trojan,  it may ne easier to use the mythbuntu livecd/installer cd..  depends on your Linux-Skills
[11:17] <sken> what's that jimbo
[11:18] <jim_p> sken: its the greek encoding setting!
[11:18] <Wavesonics> is the 3D desktop cube gone in 8.10?
[11:18] <ziroday> Wavesonics: nope its still ther
[11:18] <linux_trojan> I take it that mythbuntu live CD is just ubuntu with mythtv on it?  and can install to hard drive?
[11:18] <ziroday> !ccsm | Wavesonics
[11:18] <jim_p> sken: can you please instruct me what you want to do with subtitles?
 i am running  8.10
[11:19] <ziroday> linux_trojan: correct, it also contains some mythbuntu specific packages and artword
[11:19] <ziroday> *artwork
[11:19] <sken> can i download it? or it's installed?
[11:19] <jim_p> pretender: sorry it was a typo earlier
[11:19] <linux_trojan> so if I have Ubuntu 8.10, then all I need is ap-get mythtv and mythubuntu?  I hope I understand this
[11:19] <sken> i want to put greek subtitles in my movies
[11:19] <Wavesonics> thanks all :)
[11:19] <ziroday> linux_trojan: that is correct
[11:19] <bouma> vlc runs when i go Places->Home folder ...
[11:20] <jim_p> sken: leike... embed subs on them?
[11:20] <linux_trojan> cool I am gonna do it this weekend
[11:20] <linux_trojan> I hate windows
[11:20] <ziroday> bouma: see here http://ubuntulinuxtipstricks.blogspot.com/2008/10/intrepid-update-faq.html
[11:20] <Mister129> bonjour a tous
[11:20] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: it has its uses
[11:20] <pretender> ok
[11:21] <Mister129> le salon francophone sil vous plais
[11:21] <ActionParsnip1> !fr | Mister129
[11:21] <linux_trojan> yep, like, Windows Just Doesnt Work, BUGS
[11:21] <linux_trojan> lots of bugs
[11:21] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: lots of bugs in linux too, just different bugs
[11:22] <linux_trojan> yea but I dont have to pay $500 for bugs
[11:22] <ActionParsnip1> no , you pay in time and effort instead
[11:22] <rakan> why doesn't cgmail autostart on gnome startup?
[11:22] <linux_trojan> and pay for buggs that only work with special drivers that other OS dont have coz of agreements with MS
[11:22] <ziroday> rakan: you can get it to autostart
[11:22] <speakman_> hi ubuntu folks !
[11:22] <m4steR> there is a log for passwords changes?
[11:23] <rakan> ziroday: yes i can, and i did... but it doesnt
[11:23] <linux_trojan> if I am gonna get bugs I wanna get them for free
[11:23] <Wavesonics> how do I change the number of desktops?
[11:23] <jim_p> please help. i need a gui ssh thing :( putty is as ugly as...
[11:23] <ziroday> rakan: when you run it under the command line, does it run fine?
[11:23] <ziroday> Wavesonics: you can do so in ccsm
[11:23] <linux_trojan> and use hacked drivers coz the manufactures wont provided them coz they are scared of M$
[11:23] <speakman_> Why is'nt dual monitors working in intrepid ibex by default?
[11:23] <speakman_> isn't even
[11:23] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: all im saying is linux has a place and windows has a place. lots of people dislike ubuntu and love windows, horses for courses
[11:24] <ActionParsnip1> speakman_: very little of that ilk works by default
[11:24] <ziroday> speakman_: do you have the graphics drivers installed?
[11:24] <speakman_> Anyone got two monitors working?
[11:24] <rakan> ziroday: yes,,, actually its running fine now... but it used to run automatically when i run gnome at startup on hardy
[11:24] <linux_trojan> I guess
[11:24] <ActionParsnip1> !dualhead | speakman_
[11:24] <ziroday> rakan: you can add it again in System > Preferences > Session
[11:24] <speakman_> ziroday: sure, nvidia propritary 177 (delivered by ubuntu itself)
[11:25] <vlt> jim_p: What's your ssh problem?
[11:25] <pretender> found doco on creating links thanks
[11:25] <ziroday> speakman_: and have you tried using the nvidia settings tool?
[11:25] <rakan> ziroday: do u know what params it needs to also start service automatically?
[11:25] <speakman_> ziroday: nope, is it packaged with ubuntu?
[11:25] <ziroday> rakan: add it to the autostart list
[11:25] <ziroday> speakman_: yep, the package is called nvidia-settings
[11:25] <speakman_> (I renamed my xorg.conf to test out the automagic in ibex, but it doesn't work very well this far)
[11:26] <jim_p> vlt: as i said earlier, i cant ssh from the terminal! i can ssh from putty only. but putty's terminal has tiny little letters and putty interface is weird!
[11:27] <linux_trojan> I am downloading the live cd right now
[11:27] <speakman_> ziroday: it says i'm probably not running nvidia x-driver. As I said, it's all going by default since i removed my xorg.conf
[11:27] <ziroday> speakman_: err, you should still have an xorg.conf. Have you installed the nvidia drivers from the hardware manager?
[11:28] <linux_trojan> I have 2 TB of HD space just for movies and MP3s
[11:28] <vlt> jim_p: What happens when you run `ssh <server>` from the terminal?
[11:28] <dr_willis> linux_trojan,  lightweight... :P
[11:28] <linux_trojan> lol
[11:28] <linux_trojan> cost me alot of money
[11:28] <dr_willis> its scary as i slowly replace my 120gb hd's with 1tb hds how fast i fill them up
[11:28] <jim_p> vlt: i wait and wait and nothing happens! putty connects me in a snap
[11:29] <dr_willis> I need to invest in some external SATA stuff someday soon
[11:29] <speakman_> ziroday: reinstalling the nvidia driver from "Hardware Drivers" menu
[11:29] <vlt> jim_p: Can you try `ssh -vv <server>`? Does that tell you anything interesting?
[11:29] <linux_trojan> I bought 2 IOMEGA USB drives for backup
[11:29] <linux_trojan> each TB
[11:29] <dr_willis> I just build my own. :)
[11:30] <linux_trojan> *each 1 TB
[11:30] <Dorobo18jp> can some one help me i am trying to upgrade my pidgin but am getting lost
[11:30] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: you can by 2 x 1Tb drives in the UK for 100 quid
[11:30] <ActionParsnip1> cheapness galore
[11:30] <Joint> Dorobo18jp, updating you're pidgin?
[11:30] <Dorobo18jp> yes thechat program
[11:30] <jim_p> vlt: wait...
[11:30] <linux_trojan> my cost me $170 each about 3 months ago
[11:30] <linux_trojan> at frys.com
[11:30] <Joint> Dorobo18jp, hmm i know what is it?
[11:31] <Joint> but updating. it how though?
[11:31] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: pretty cheap
[11:31] <linux_trojan> yea I thought so
[11:31] <Dorobo18jp> tellingme to revore stuff compile stuff i am newat linuxso getting totally lost
[11:32] <linux_trojan> but they tried to see me some expensive strorage server with its own IP address and remote access
[11:32] <linux_trojan> like $800
[11:32] <linux_trojan> *sell me
[11:32] <jim_p> vlt: seems that the server is closed now. neither terminal nor putty can log me in
[11:32] <dr_willis> Dorobo18jp,  some times you just have to spend time and learn the basics befor you can  do the advanced stuff.
[11:32] <schnoodles> umm eep. i am doing the distribution upgrade and its up to the grub part of the install and its frozen, what would be the best thing to do :|
[11:32] <ziroday> schnoodles: how long have you waited?
[11:33] <schnoodles> about 10 mins. The debconf;s pages gui has screwed up
[11:33] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: could just run a koolu box with a usb drive for a nas
[11:34] <linux_trojan> yea thats too fancy for me right now, maybe in couple years I will advance to a storage server
[11:34] <schnoodles> ziroday, does it usually hang ?
[11:34] <dr_willis> linux_trojan,  i saw one of those storage servers.. that had its own torrent client built in. :)
[11:34] <schnoodles> no cpu is really getting used :\
[11:34] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: not hard, samba shared folder on a server isnt hard
[11:34] <ziroday> schnoodles: shouldn't dp
[11:34] <ziroday> schnoodles: which part is it up to again?
[11:35] <schnoodles> do you know what the best approach would be, like if i restart will it destroy
[11:35] <schnoodles> it was asked me about menu.lst and do i want to change it or not
[11:35] <ziroday> schnoodles: so its still installing/configuring applications?
[11:35] <linux_trojan> right now my main problem is that Windows Media Center has its own format MS-DVS or something and I cant convert that to MPEG or AVI
[11:36] <linux_trojan> I hate it
[11:36] <schnoodles>  yes
[11:36] <dr_willis> linux_trojan,  theres proberly a way to convert them
[11:36] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: MS hates anythng other than MS
[11:36] <schnoodles> ziroday because the gui isnt drawn correctly it looks like its frozen
[11:36] <ziroday> schnoodles: then it really is quite dangerous to just cancel the upgrade
[11:36] <linux_trojan> I think there is a package in Linux, KINIO?
[11:36] <ziroday> linux_trojan: you mean kino?
[11:36] <linux_trojan> but the windows files are like 10 gigs so it takes a lot of space
[11:37] <dr_willis> linux_trojan,  theres dozens of fancy video tools for linux. Most are not GUI however.. :) but once ya learn how to use them
[11:37] <linux_trojan> yea KINO
[11:37] <dr_willis> movie editing is a bit of a different task then video recoding
[11:37] <schnoodles> ziroday, if it doesnt go anywhere what should i do then. i mean if it HAS frozen :P
[11:38] <pinger22m> hello world
[11:38] <VSpike> If I mount a samba share with samba, and the share contains symlink outside of the share, should I see the contents of the symlinks transparently or broken symlinks?
[11:38] <ziroday> schnoodles: err, well all the options I can think of are dangerous, best thing I can see is to cancel
[11:38] <dr_willis> VSpike,  i belive the samba configs have a 'follow symlinks' option.. or somting like that.. I can follow the links I belive
[11:38] <linux_trojan> right now all my MS-DVS files are on one comp with NTFS partitioning and I need to transfer it to my laptop iwth ext3 partitioning, its gonna be a big job if I unless I get Mythbuntu installed
[11:39] <dr_willis> VSpike,  however its best to not have 'fancy' things like that  in samba shares..
[11:39] <dr_willis> VSpike,  watch out for   filenames that just differ in Case also.
[11:39] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: just restore the data from backup to your linux system
[11:39] <linux_trojan> lol
[11:39] <Roey> ActionParsnip1:  hahahah I love your nick
[11:39] <linux_trojan> its not backed up lol
[11:40] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: seriously?
[11:40] <ActionParsnip1> Roey: its a harry hill joke
[11:40] <linux_trojan> I hate to backup
[11:40] <linux_trojan> gives me headaches
[11:40] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: what if your hard drives fail?
[11:40] <dr_willis> VSpike,  I can confirm.. a link to /  from a share lets me get to / :)
[11:40] <linux_trojan> I live life on the edge
[11:40] <VSpike> dr_willis: how are you accessing the share? nautilus?
[11:40] <dr_willis> VSpike,  accessing a samba server on a linux box from vista right now
[11:40] <leonard_pop> hello! i cannot play movies well. i have image and sound but the image keeps flashing white. i have ubuntu 8.10
[11:40] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: lost data will cause more headache than a nightly backup
[11:40] <linux_trojan> its partially backed up, I backup like very 6 months
[11:40] <VSpike> dr_willis: issue is sharing my home on a desktop, where all the main stuff is symlinked
[11:41] <pagarill> does anybody know to get the lg x110's w(lan) set? (or that of a similar netbook?
[11:41] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: its your stuff, no backup is completely appauling to me
[11:41] <belim> are there any vbox users in here? i am having a really weird issue with bridging my eth0 connection!....
[11:41] <VSpike> dr_willis: ah.  I think it may be to do with the nix extensions for samba
[11:41] <linux_trojan> good  point
[11:41] <linux_trojan> I actually agree
[11:41] <linux_trojan> < lazy
[11:42] <VSpike> dr_willis: nautilus shows the contents the symlinks, but mounting with cifs does not
[11:42] <crekarasu> Hi, i want to open port  ssh 22 please
[11:42] <ziroday> pagarill: you can ask in #vbox
[11:42] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: you will insist on learning the hard and painful way
[11:42] <VSpike> crekarasu: sudo apt-get install openssh-server

[11:42] <ActionParsnip1> crekarasu: if you run openssh-server its open
[11:42] <dr_willis> VSpike,  ive never mounted with cifs.. so cant tell ya   - this thread mentions the topic  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=352016
[11:42] <linux_trojan> well so fare after about 20 years of owning a computer I havent lost any files
[11:42] <ActionParsnip1> crekarasu: if you havent configured stuff with firestarter or similar you are good to go
[11:42] <VSpike> dr_willis: I think it was you who pointed me at fusesmb some time back, but it's broken for me in 8.10
[11:43] <linux_trojan> never had a HD fail
[11:43] <dr_willis> VSpike,  it seems to break then get fixed.. at times..  let me try it now in 8.10
[11:43] <ActionParsnip1> crekarasu: if you would like wan access you will have to open the port in your router user manual as it varys wildly from router to router
[11:43] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: you've obviosly not worked in a multi server situation
[11:44] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: i have about 5 drives a night fail in my clusters
[11:44] <dr_willis> VSpike,  its working for me on one of my Ubuntu 8.10 64bit machines..
[11:44] <crekarasu> VSpike after install openssh-server to do?
[11:44] <VSpike> dr_willis: for me it works, but regularly crashes out or hangs and eats cpu
[11:44] <linux_trojan> oh no, I am a programmer, not an admin type
[11:44] <ActionParsnip1> crekarasu: that will enable you to ssh to the box
[11:44] <VSpike> dr_willis: for me, browsing the fuse mount with nautilus is a sure way to kill it
[11:44] <crekarasu> o tanks
[11:44] <bluefoxx> 20 years back hard drives of any type were relatively rare from what i understand and see...
[11:45] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: even more reason to backup, if your code goes you're gonna be SOWEEEE
[11:45] <crekarasu> but i want to login on ssh 22 with user root, how can i do because don`t know the password
[11:45] <VSpike> crekarasu: that should be it - install should start it running
[11:45] <ActionParsnip1> crekarasu: youo dont, log in as yourself
[11:45] <snkmad> how can i format my pen drive? i wanna test that live-usb program
[11:45] <ActionParsnip1> crekarasu: there is no root password, you are a member of sudoers so can use sudo to get all power required
[11:45] <VSpike> crekarasu: log in as yourself then use sudo
[11:46] <erUSUL> !root | crekarasu
[11:46] <ActionParsnip1> snkmad: mkfs
[11:46] <linux_trojan> what I am really worried about is that I have about 20 years of stored data, programs, publications, graphics, and document files on stuff I have writtten for journals
[11:46] <ziroday> snkmad: if you have intrepid the program is in System > Administration > Create a usb disk
[11:46] <dr_willis> VSpike,  thats an interestng  thing...  ls: cannot access Network: Transport endpoint is not connected
[11:46] <dr_willis> VSpike,  yep. file a bug, :()
[11:46] <linux_trojan> I want to keep all that
[11:46] <crekarasu> ok tanks
[11:46] <barloul2009> hi every one
[11:46] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: as i say. think about what you ave, then imagine one oth the physical drives power transformer dying
[11:46] <snkmad> ziroday yeah thats the program, but it says i needs more space, so i need the usb disk to be empty?
[11:46] <VSpike> dr_willis: yeah, that's what i get.  bug filed
[11:47] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: drive will not spin up fo love nor money, what have you lost
[11:47] <linux_trojan> is there a way to auto backup on windows?  a free program?
[11:47] <VSpike> dr_willis: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/290673
[11:47] <ziroday> snkmad: I presume so, never used it before
[11:47] <VSpike> dr_willis: if you could confirm, that would be great
[11:47] <ziroday> linux_trojan: ask in ##windows about windows backup software
[11:47] <snkmad> ActionParsnip1 gonna try mkfs
[11:47] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: theres a backup program bundled in
[11:47] <ActionParsnip1> snkmad: man mkfs
[11:47] <Draggin> Hi there... I noticed a recent problem on my machine and I believe it's after the last kernel update... My ntfs drives are no longer accessible - it keeps telling me that I do not have permission to mount them whenever I try to access them... Does anyone know about this problem; can you confirm that it's the kernel update; and do you have any suggestions as to what to do about it?
[11:48] <barloul2009> is it hard to configure network on ubuntu live cd ?
[11:48] <linux_trojan> I think I used to have a backup program from IOMEGA
[11:48] <linux_trojan> they probably have a program on there webssite
[11:48] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: im just making you see what you can lose, if its ok to lose then backup isnt needed
[11:48] <crekarasu>
[11:48] <crekarasu> I installed ircd-ircu with sudo apt-get install and ensure ircd.conf want to change but I do not know where she is
[11:48] <linux_trojan> no I am getting the message
[11:48] <ActionParsnip1> barloul2009: you can do anything in livecd the same as an installed system except reboot
[11:49] <linux_trojan> I just need to think of how I will do it
[11:49] <linux_trojan> i could back up thru samba I think
[11:50] <crekarasu> I installed ircd-ircu with sudo apt-get install and ensure ircd.conf want to change but I do not know where she is
[11:50] <linux_trojan> use on comp with linux to back up a NTFS system
[11:50] <linux_trojan> a samba share
[11:50] <snkmad> ah intrepid doesnt come with gparted by default...
[11:51] <crekarasu> I installed ircd-ircu with sudo apt-get install and ensure ircd.conf want to change but I do not know where she is? any oane can help me please>

[11:51]  * Magilla returns
[11:52] <linux_trojan> I dont even know what auto backup programs are available on linux
[11:52] <Magilla> I need some help with an upgrade gone wrong. No errors during the upgrade process, but now the computer locks while loading the logon screen. It's an HP netbook. Recovery-modes "Attempt to fix X" hasn't helped
[11:52] <ActionParsnip1> barloul2009: are you wanting wired or wireless connection?
[11:52] <Magilla> any ideas?
[11:52] <barloul2009> i supose i did somthing wrong but don't know
[11:52] <VSpike> crekarasu: try "locate ircd.conf"
[11:52] <barloul2009> ActionParsnip1: wired connection
[11:52] <Magilla> It's a VIA Chrome chip
[11:53] <crekarasu> ok tanks VSpike
[11:53] <linux_trojan> I used to bring my laptop to work and my boss hinted that he thought I was stealing software
[11:53] <ActionParsnip1> barloul2009: ok run lspci and 1 line will relate to the wired lan, type that line in here
[11:53] <linux_trojan> I told him I run linux and it wont run windows programs and he said "I demand to see your computer"
[11:54] <ActionParsnip1> it will run windows apps
[11:54] <bluefoxx> linux_trojan; reguarding bacakups, i use redundant drives, and every couple days copy over files from my main the the backups, using the merge option in ubuntu or just overriding in windows. works nicely, and has saved my data a number of times now...im guessin the average person doesnt have 4 extra 80 gigs hooked up to theuy're pc though, never mind 5and cold backup drives
[11:54] <ActionParsnip1> linux_trojan: you can run them with wine, crossover office and cedega

[11:55] <Sharp_eyes> u ther
[11:55] <speakman_> how come my Desktop Effects is greyed out?
[11:55] <linux_trojan> bluefox:  I have 2 TB USB drives I can use
[11:55] <barloul2009> ok i will be back soon thanks ActionParsnip1;-)
[11:55] <dr_willis> VSpike,  Posted a comment.. mc dosent crash the fusesmb stuff.. but  gnome and rox-filer does
[11:55] <siccness> speakman_: because your screen is in grayscale mode!
[11:55] <ActionParsnip1> speakman_: you need to install them using the button
[11:55] <werdnus> who wants to suggest a sexy icon set for gnome? :)
[11:55] <Sharp_eyes> is ther any body who know that how to intall vnc on linux
[11:55] <linux_trojan> yea Action, but still it was an invasion of privacy
[11:55] <speakman_> ActionParsnip1: "using the button"?
[11:56] <DIFH-iceroot> Sharp_eyes: with apt-get
[11:56] <linux_trojan> I let him see my comp but got fired about a month later anyway
[11:56] <Sharp_eyes> yes.
[11:56] <ActionParsnip1> !compiz | speakman_
[11:56] <Sharp_eyes> DIFH-iceroot: what can i type..
[11:56] <bluefoxx> linux_trojan; than mirror your files to those, easy thing to do is form a habit of copyieing your files to them end of each day, week or whichever and keeping them organised. takes a while to do at first but is great habit once you do
[11:56] <Sharp_eyes> DIFH-iceroot: plz give me the command
[11:56] <synthetiq> anyone know a road type gps device i can purchases and application that works with it on ubuntu?
[11:56] <col_panik> need a program to break up a video file into individual graphic frames (jpg, gif,whatever)  need to do an entire file in one command line if possible.
[11:56] <DIFH-iceroot> Sharp_eyes: apt-cache search searchstring  <- with that you will find the name of the pakate and then sudo apt-get install paketname
[11:57] <linux_trojan> Bluefox:  I agree that it does take some work and getting used to
[11:57] <ActionParsnip1> col_panik: avidemux maybe
[11:57] <speakman_> ActionParsnip1: oh, thanks... I might have removed those packages a long time ago
[11:57] <ActionParsnip1> !info avidemux
[11:57] <dr_willis> col_panik,  mencoder, or ffmpeg can do that.. i saw it in the faq/docs/guides the other day
[11:57] <dr_willis> col_panik,  one frame per jpg :) talk about a lot of image files
[11:58] <col_panik> thanks all!!!!   I'll try 'em   and yes...there will be a BUNCH of image files (and i'm ready for that) lol
[11:58] <speakman_> Great. Now compiz's running. But there are no window title bars and stuff. How come?
[11:58] <chalcedony> what's the name of the popup blocker things for firefox please?
[11:58] <VSpike> dr_willis: thanks :) that bug was feeling decidedly unloved
[11:58] <ziroday> chalcedony: adblock
[11:58] <dr_willis> col_panik,  it can do the reverse also. :) i made a 400 picture slide show.. of 1 frame/per sec.. :) oops...  it was fast
[11:58] <ActionParsnip1> speakman_: you running an nvidia?
[11:58] <dr_willis> VSpike,  fusesmb never gets much love.
[11:58] <speakman_> ActionParsnip1: yep
[11:58] <bluefoxx> linux_trojan; i know it took me about a week to organise and clean through my mess of files, having been strewn across all my tiny drives, but now that it is organised]after another month to get into backups] it is definately worth it...windoss install crashed a month back and *didnt* take out my files because of backups the day before the crash. definately try it :p
[11:59] <dr_willis> VSpike,  fusesmb has been having issues for the last 2 releases or so..   :()
[11:59] <chalcedony> ziroday: is there another name? i put it on my husband's firefox and now i can't remember what it was .. not adblock
[11:59] <col_panik> dr_willis, yeah...i've done the same thing with an animated gif....had to space them a bit more
[11:59] <bluefoxx> anyways, im going to bed, its 4 am and i have school...
[11:59] <siccness> the best backup software is IBM's TSM, you should use that for backups. :)
[11:59] <ActionParsnip1> speakman_: theres a line or 2 to add to xorg.conf i believe, gimme a sec
[11:59] <chalcedony> bluefoxx: sleep fast :)
[11:59] <speakman_> ActionParsnip1: sure, thanks for helping out
[11:59] <ziroday> chalcedony: err, adblock plus? adblock filterset g?
[11:59] <col_panik> dr_willis, but now using kdenlive i can set the timeing per frame
[11:59] <bluefoxx> :3
[11:59] <linux_trojan> yea I need to, if windows crashes I just use Knoppix to recover the files
[11:59] <rww> chalcedony: popup blocking is built in to Firefox. Tools>Options>Content>"Block pop-up windows" =/
[11:59] <chalcedony> ziroday: i'll look those up
[12:00] <Prosenjit> hi all, I want to download good themes and walpapers

[12:00] <DIFH-iceroot> Prosenjit: feel free to do it

[12:00] <ActionParsnip1> speakman_: add     Option         "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True" to the screen section

[12:00] <speakman_> ActionParsnip1: great thanks!
[12:00] <col_panik> l8rness allz
[12:00] <ActionParsnip1> speakman_: its an nvidia glitch with compiz

[12:01] <efaistos_> ?
[12:01] <jrib> !themes | Prosenjit
[12:01] <jrib> efaistos_: dapper
[12:01] <speakman_> ActionParsnip1: okay, big thanks for helping! now reboot :)
[12:01] <bouma> ziroday: it didnt mention that issue. have you encountered that problem with vlc taking 'association' with my desktop under places ??
[12:01] <efaistos_> i have a friend who has breezy and want to upgrade ...
[12:02] <efaistos_> jrib: and there are more after dapper ?
[12:02] <ziroday> bouma: erm yes, one sec
[12:02] <jrib> efaistos_: upgrade to?
[12:02] <werdnus> So when I boot up, I get 'unable to launch Hardware Abstraction Layer', in a 'critical' message box.
[12:02] <werdnus> I should be worried about this, huh?
[12:02] <ziroday> bouma: see point 12 in http://ubuntulinuxtipstricks.blogspot.com/2008/10/intrepid-update-faq.html
[12:02] <tim234> hey, is completly switched over to ubuntu 8.10 - as i want to play source games i thought about reinstalling windows with dualboot
[12:02] <jrib> efaistos_: there are 5 more after dapper (after dapper they go in alphabetical order and we're on 'i' now)
[12:02] <efaistos_> jrib: upgrade from breezy to something newer ;)
[12:02] <march> efaistos_, Warty > Hoary > Breezy > Dapper > Edgy > Feisty > Gutsy > Hardy > Intrepid > Jaunty
[12:02] <tim234> how can i realise that? i only got the partitions linux is running on
[12:03] <efaistos_> fuck !¬
[12:03] <leonard_pop> when trying to play a movie the image is flashing. i am using ubuntu 8.10. any ideas that can fix that?
[12:03] <jrib> efaistos_: he can go breezy -> dapper -> hardy -> intrepid (or stay on hardy).  dapper and hardy are LTS
[12:03] <efaistos_> didnt knwo there are so many releases ..
[12:03] <march> You mean frag efaistos_  ;)
[12:03] <rww> !language | efaistos_
[12:03] <efaistos_> im a debian user not ubuntu sorry :)
[12:03] <jrib> efaistos_: it might faster to just reinstall if he wants to go to intrepid
[12:03] <speakman_> Nope, still no window title bar
[12:03] <efaistos_> rww: sorry :P
[12:03] <jrib> !upgrade > efaistos_
[12:04] <march> I would install Hardy - 'cause it's a LTS efaistos_
[12:04] <efaistos_> jrib: shes a girl and living in paris
[12:04] <efaistos_> im in london
[12:04] <Prosenjit> thanks ubottu
[12:04] <speakman_> Still no title bar using compiz on nvidia
[12:05] <speakman_> ActionParsnip1: still won't work
[12:05] <K-O-D> speakman I had that problem too - it was just buggy and I have to move things around - but it sho is ugly like that
[12:06] <VSpike> dr_willis: 'tis a shame, because it's a neat idea. It worked perfectly for me in 8.04, used it every day
[12:06] <dr_willis> VSpike,  yea.. I even made a note on the Wiki page about how its been having issues.
[12:06] <speakman_> Alt+Tab won't work either
[12:06] <ActionParsnip1> speakman_: theres a very similar line to add as well
[12:06] <ActionParsnip1> i only have that one in mine
[12:06] <speakman_> oh ok
[12:07] <ActionParsnip1> speakman_: try asking in #compiz, im sure they've had it a gzaillion times

[12:21] <bazhang> speps, what is the error message
[12:21] <loopodoopo> use gftp
[12:21] <jrib> AdvoWork: you can use nautilus for that.  Or just scp on the command line
[12:21] <piasdom> g'mornin all
[12:21] <speps> bazhang: no error just no response. i can get it work
[12:21] <AdvoWork> i dont want command line if i can help it, just a program
[12:22] <jrib> AdvoWork: then my first suggestion
[12:22] <loopodoopo> AdvoWork: u can use gftp
[12:22] <bazhang> speps, what command are you using
[12:22] <loopodoopo> AdvoWork it is in the reppo's
[12:22] <jrib> gftp is good too
[12:22] <ActionParsnip1> speps: you could try sudo mv /etc/network/interfaces /etc/network/interfaces_old
[12:22] <ActionParsnip1> speps: then reboot
[12:22] <Pretto> now and then my mouse is frozen, any idea on how to inspect the cause?
[12:22] <ramon> hi everyone. on ibex, when desktop effects are on and i use yakuake, yakuake's text doesn't update properly. is there a way to fix this while keeping desktop effects on? if not, is there a good alternative to yakuake? i like the way yakuake just goes away when you press f12.
[12:23] <ActionParsnip1> ramon: are both fully updated. I have a rig using both
[12:23] <speps> bazhang: when i do it in graphical mode it works but dhclient wlan0 stucks on requesting to <IP_ADDRESS>
[12:23] <piasdom> when i reboot and it's shutting down..it says make sure message bus is running...how do i catch this bus ?
[12:23] <gst_s> drpickett: i want through which system call i will get the information which is given by du, like as unlink() system call does the same functionality which is done through linux command unlink
[12:23] <siccness> piasdom: buy a ticket
[12:23] <ActionParsnip1> ramon: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -y upgrade
[12:23] <siccness> then you'll be allowed on the bus
[12:23] <bazhang> speps, you are using sudo with that?
[12:23] <ramon> ActionParsnip1: it was ok with hardy.. but now it's all weird. but i'll try those and let u know
[12:23] <ramon> thanks
[12:24] <piasdom> ActionParsnip:no money :)

[12:46] <Cthulhu> its as good as ubuntu gets.
[12:46] <ActionParsnip1> zackeroo: depends where from
[12:46] <Prose> any reason Intrepid would be responsible for Firefox crashing when playing flash movies ?
[12:47] <ramontayag> zackeroo: yeah use bittorrent when u can.
[12:47] <ActionParsnip1> Prose: bad flash install
[12:47] <Helvasca> Prose: thats probably a flash problem

[12:47] <zackeroo> anyone know a good healthy torrent for Intrepid?

[12:47] <beli> kosnick: why not ask your question?
[12:47] <onetb> sfears: going to attempt to reinstall with alt installer and see how that goes.  my pc is very old, so I know it is an issue with my onboard vid
[12:47] <sfears> Magilla, while it's booting press "ctrl+alt+f1" and try to figure out what it's loading that's causing it to get stuck.. make sure all your extra usb sticks, wireless cards, & printers are disconnected.. and i've seen irq conflicts that need to be resolved in the bios before
[12:47] <onetb> if I have to, I will go back to 8.04
[12:47] <ramontayag> zackeroo: there is one on ubuntu.com
[12:47] <sfears> onetb.. that command is as basic as it gets
[12:48] <ActionParsnip1> Prose: are you running 64bit?
[12:48] <mandje> the ubuntu installer has a disk setup tool which works like a charm setting up raid and lvm as well. but no sign of it to be found outside install time.
[12:48] <LightTitan> When using Update manager and doing a check on new updates my downloader ALWAYS fails ALL of the Translation-en_US package repositories...
[12:48] <Helvasca> zackeroo: have you got torrent program set up correctly?
[12:48] <Prose> ActionParsnip1: nope, 32bit pentium m ... old enough
[12:48] <sfears> set to vesa drivers @ 800x600
[12:48] <zackeroo> Helvasca : yes
[12:48] <Helvasca> zackeroo: whats the highest dl speeds youve got in the past?
[12:48] <Prose> LightTitan: are you using the main server or your countrie's specific server ?
[12:48] <ActionParsnip1> Prose: remove any flash plugins then go tto something like www.rathergood.com/blode2 and it will install whats needed
[12:49] <Magilla> sfears: the xorg.conf on the machine looks /very/ empty
[12:49] <sfears> LightTitan, you might not have the "keyring" i think it's called or that repository doesn't exist anymore
[12:49] <sfears> hold on magilla
[12:49] <ActionParsnip1> Magilla: they are phasing most of it out
[12:49] <Prose> ActionParsnip1: all right, think I can remove them flash plugins with Synaptic alone ?
[12:49] <zackeroo> Helvasca : 300kbps
[12:49] <kosnick> beli : i suppose this is not the place for it but i will give it a try . I got a site . In this site there is some space where i can set a password that is being used for some other app. Can i use wget in order to change this password using cron ? i mean i want to have some schedule which alters the password every lets say 2 hours
[12:49] <ActionParsnip1> Prose: sure
[12:49] <Magilla> sfears: no problem
[12:49] <onetb> I anticipate that the inability to edit the xorg file manually is going to make a lot of non-newbs annoyed
[12:49] <Magilla> ActionParsnip1: I heard that
[12:49] <Magilla> :/
[12:49] <LightTitan> I think my countries specific server Prose
[12:50] <Helvasca> zackeroo: try the ubuntu.com torrents
[12:50] <Prose> LightTitan: try using the Main server
[12:50] <ActionParsnip1> Magilla: its tried and tested. they should leave it alone
[12:50] <LightTitan> how do I do that Prose?
[12:50] <ActionParsnip1> Magilla: like alsa
[12:50] <beli> kosnick: you want to do html formular processing from the shell?
[12:50] <Prose> LightTitan: mirrors sometimes lack some package and updater is really nazi on getting all packages
[12:50] <Prose> open Synpactic
[12:51] <LightTitan> it's open
[12:51] <Prose> Settings - Repos
[12:51] <Magilla> the hang occurs after X has initalised - the loading/waiting cursor displays, although long and fuzzy, as if the hsync is out
[12:51] <LightTitan> there
[12:51] <Prose> in the Ubuntu software tab, there is "Download from", switch that to main server
[12:51] <zackeroo> Helvasca : yeah ,,, thanks ... its coming in at 100kbps and over ...:)
[12:51] <LightTitan> oh ok
[12:51] <LightTitan> thank you!
[12:51] <Helvasca> zackeroo: have fun!
[12:52] <sfears> magilla.. that's a copy of a basic xorg.conf file.. drop that in there and see what happens

[12:58] <Magilla> sfears: alt+f2 works on 8.10 on my machine. Very strange...
[12:58] <LightTitan> Exactly
[12:58] <Prose> LightTitan: I guess the installer doesn't wanna budge afterwards ?

[13:02] <jjdiamond> pioSko: after upgrading, it asked me if i wanted to install third party ATI drivers.  when i did so, the display was something like 600 x 440.  horrible.
[13:02] <rowinggolfer> AdvoWork: there is... let me get it and see
[13:03] <farnsworth_> hello
[13:03] <jjdiamond> pioSko:  i uninstalled them.  but my resolution won't go higher than 1280 x 1024 now.
[13:04] <rowinggolfer> hey riddlebox
[13:04] <rowinggolfer> AdvoWork: fired up gftp
[13:05] <pioSko> jjdiamond: I'm just asking because I have ATI aswell... I did a clean install of 8.10 and at the moment I haven't done the propriety drivers. I have a dual monitor setup and need to be sure that it will work

[13:06] <pioSko> jjdiamond: i can't ecven install them because of the "freezing up" issues
[13:06] <jjdiamond> pioSko: do you have on board video or a video card?
[13:06] <ActionParsnip1> farnsworth_: or right click it -> exit then select no to the startup next time dialogue
[13:07] <pioSko> jjdiamond: at the moment just on board
[13:07] <farnsworth_> ActionParsnip1: that disables the BT-manager, yes. i want the device to be disabled
[13:08] <jjdiamond> pioSko:  yea.  my display looked fine until i downloaded those drivers.  i uninsyalled and the max resolution is 1280 x 1024.
[13:08] <eightfold> does anybody know a good software for examining the health status of a hdd except for spinrite?
[13:08] <pioSko> jjdiamond: 8.10 doesn't even want to show me what restricted drivers i can activate... i barely installed ubuntu updates because of freezing
[13:08] <pioSko> jjdiamond: have you tried Envy??
[13:08] <jjdiamond> pioSko:  sucky.

[13:09] <jjdiamond> pioSko: envy?
[13:09] <pioSko> jjdiamond: yeah, alternative drivers... for 8.04 worked like a charm...
[13:10] <pioSko> jjdiamond: you have to install Envy by apt-get.. see forums for more details..
[13:10] <eightfold> Magilla: is it possible to use with other brands too?
[13:10] <jjdiamond> pioSko:  i'll look into it thanks.
[13:10] <pioSko> jjdiamond: then you uninstall ATI drivers and get Envy to install it's own drivers
[13:10] <Magilla> eightfold: sure
[13:10] <ActionParsnip1> jjdiamond: sudo apt-get install envng-gtk; gksudo envyng-gtk
[13:11] <rowinggolfer> AdvoWork: choose "add a bookmark" when connected to a site
[13:11] <pioSko> jjdiamond: Envy unsinstalls ATI drivers for you too... (if i remember correctly)

[13:12] <eightfold> Magilla: sounds perfect, looked it up. thanks for the hint.
[13:13] <Magilla> eightfold: if you only want to look at the S.M.A.R.T. information, you can install smartmontools using apt-get or synaptic, and smartctl will show you the logs
[13:13] <jjdiamond> error: unexpected character `\342', expected string constant
[13:13] <pioSko> Has anybody had the "freezing up" issues and has managed to solve it? I've tried different things from forums and I'm ready to give up
[13:14] <pioSko> jjdiamond: try via Synaptic
[13:14] <ActionParsnip1> jjdiamond: sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -y upgrade; sudo apt-get -y install envyng-gtk; gksudo envyng-gtk
[13:14] <pioSko> or do that :P
[13:14] <ActionParsnip1> synaptic is too slow
[13:14] <judgen> seen ferdil
[13:14] <Pici> ActionParsnip1: Using -y is really not recommended.
[13:14] <ActionParsnip1> Pici: with upgrades it just gets things going
[13:15] <eightfold> Magilla: how reliable is smart info? i've tried spinrite, but it seems to crash. i'm not sure if it's reporting a disk error or crashing. i get "Division Overflow Error".
[13:15] <crekarasu> how can i install tclConfig.sh please ? because manual don`t work
[13:15] <ActionParsnip1> Pici: saves users asking if its ok for other fluff to be installed when its blatantly needed
[13:15] <Pici> ActionParsnip1: It also 'says yes' to questions about removing packages if dependency problems are encountered.
[13:15] <ActionParsnip1> Pici: ok, point taken
[13:16] <ramontayag> what's a good way to search through all text files within a directory and see if any of them contain a certain text?
[13:16] <Magilla> eightfold: you can't rely on SMART, but it will tell you about overheating, read errors, write errors, and a stack of other stuff, and give your drive a rating based on that
[13:16] <siccness> ramontayag: cat *.txt | grep "text"
[13:17] <Magilla> ramontayag: grep "text" *.txt
[13:17] <ActionParsnip1> ramontayag: grep "text to find"
[13:18] <ramontayag> any of those will work? :)

[13:27] <ActionParsnip1> racquad: tried torrents?
[13:27] <meganox> racquad: 7.04 is no longer supported
[13:27] <racquad> ActionParsnip1: not yet, only mirrors.
[13:27] <racquad> meganox: I know, but I need it
[13:27] <meganox> racquad: you'll have to see if you can find it elsewhere on the web
[13:27] <Nuc134rB0t> racquad, try amule?
[13:28] <perlsyntax> what is the command for it?
[13:28] <lcc77> oh; I don't want a live install on usb ; I want my system on usb SDcard
 so far, only mirrors

[13:28] <YlandeFaran> I can watch movies with Movie Player, and with mplayer. But when I try to run something with vlc, I get nothing (if I try to right-click on the file)
[13:28] <Magilla> perlsyntax: in the sessions dialog, add a new startup program, with the command avant-window-navigator
[13:29] <lcc77> with 8.04, the installer propose to install the system on sdX, but with intrepid, I don't see the SD card
[13:29] <YlandeFaran> if I try to run the movie with vlc from the terminal, I get the sound in the background, but I get no picture.
[13:29] <YlandeFaran> What could be the problem?

[13:29] <edgy> Hi, installed solaris inside a kvm in intrepid 64-bit. the installation completes well but when I try to lauch the OS now it just keeps rebooting after reaching the grub menu
[13:30] <meganox> racquad: http://www.btmon.com/Applications/Unsorted/Ubuntu_7.04_Feisty_Fawn_PC_Intel_x86_Desktop_CD_Final_Release.torrent.html
[13:30] <lcc77> with the intrepid installer, I only see the interne hard disk
[13:30] <lcc77> not usb
[13:30] <ikonia> edgy: launch it from the command line to see the output
[13:30] <ikonia> edgy: I assume you mean open solaris rather than solaris
[13:30] <oobe> edgy, do you mean a vm no kvm
[13:30] <lcc77> have you notice this too ?
[13:30] <jjdiamond> ActionParsnip1:  is there a way to restore the original .gtkrc2.0.1 file?
[13:31] <neo2> when I doing update from 8.04 to 8.10, reboot, the kernel 'Ubuntu 8.10, kernel 2.6.27-7-generic' was bad.:( , I need to enter grub menu to select 'kernel 2.6.24-21-generic
[13:31] <neo2> '
[13:31] <ActionParsnip1> jjdiamond: no idea man, i use kde
[13:31] <phantasiename> hi
 that's the problem of torrents. just 13 seeders and only 1 leecher
[13:31] <pioSko> NetWork manager / wlan0 Question: in my system-connections config file for my wlan0 I have in the [ipv4] section addresses1=<IP_ADDRESS>;24;<IP_ADDRESS>    ....     shouldn't it be <IP_ADDRESS>;<IP_ADDRESS>;<IP_ADDRESS>??
[13:31] <ActionParsnip1> jjdiamond: check the line its moaning about, see if you can see anything obvious
[13:31] <phantasiename> the 8.10 distribution upgrade doesn't show up on my 8.04 machines
[13:31] <pioSko> i'm connected to router but have no interweb
[13:32] <MarvinJ> I have an installation issue... I'm trying to install mythbuntu via wubi. After the windows reboot, I see the mythbuntu screen but after a while the screen goes black, and never restarts.
[13:32] <YlandeFaran> But, I get the picture fine with any other media player. Could missing codecs really be the problem for VLC?
[13:32] <meganox> racquad: yes, most other results showed only one seed
[13:32] <ActionParsnip1> pioSko: the ;24; bit means /24 which is equivelant to <IP_ADDRESS>
[13:32] <pioSko> ActionParsnip1: thanks
[13:32] <|chiz|_> phantasiename: google ubuntu upgrade, there is a page that explains it
[13:32] <ikonia> !upgrade > phantasiename
[13:32] <racquad> meganox: do you know why this relese is not even at old-releases.ubuntu.com?
[13:33] <edgy> ikonia: the command line shows nothing and its solaris not opensolaris
[13:33] <ikonia> edgy: thats good - just checking
[13:33] <edgy> oobe: kvm is a program like vmware somehow
[13:33] <ikonia> edgy: what command are you using to launch the vm
[13:34] <oobe> edgy, actually it stands for keyboard video mouse its a piece of hardware that allows you to plug in your kb video mouse into 2 different machines and switch control between them
[13:34] <edgy> ikonia: kvm -m 1024 -snapshot solaris.img
[13:34] <ikonia> oobno it doesn't - it's a virtualisation technology
[13:34] <ikonia> oobe ^
[13:35] <oobe> aswell
[13:35] <oobe> oh ok
[13:35] <edgy> oobe: no no, put kvm in google and see the first result
[13:35] <ikonia> edgy: so the machine boots then resets, does the machine reset or crash ?
[13:35] <oobe> this is the first result
[13:35] <oobe> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KVM_switch
[13:35] <eightfold> Magilla: it's a samsung spinpoint f1 drive, do you think this would be as good: http://www.samsung.com/global/business/hdd/support/utilities/Support_HUTIL.html ?
[13:35] <oobe> which was my understanding of the term
[13:36] <ikonia> oobe: it doesnt matter - it stards for kernel virtual machine
[13:36] <edgy> ikonia: it displays the grub menu and just reboots not crash
[13:36] <oobe> aswell
[13:36] <ikonia> oobe: if you can't contribute to the dicussion - don't point out random things
[13:36] <oobe> aswell as the original and more commonly used term kvm switch
[13:37] <ikonia> oobe: e stop - it's obvious he's not talking about a kvm switch
[13:37] <oobe> i know now
[13:37] <ikonia> edgy: so is the vm "hardware" resetting, or the OS within it
[13:37] <oobe> was originally trying to clarify
[13:37] <hellb0y> Hi
[13:37] <Magilla> eightfold: it's hard to tell without using it. If you have a Samsung drive though, it would be a good choice...
[13:37] <ikonia> edgy: eg: do you see the fake bios
[13:37] <Magilla> eightfold: if you have trouble with the Samsung software, use the Drive Fitness Test from Hitachi
[13:38] <MarvinJ> I have an installation issue... I'm trying to install mythbuntu via wubi. After the windows reboot, I see the mythbuntu screen but after a while the screen goes black, and never restarts. If someone could point me in the correct direction, I would be greatly appreciative. The Wubi FAQ doesn't help much. Thanks.
[13:38] <jaypur> my ubuntu login sounds are not working, and some games sounds either... id like to know how do i see my sound drivers and how do i install them...
[13:38] <KX> "Nautilus cannot be used now, due to an unexpected error."
[13:38] <edgy> ikonia: yes I see the fake bios

[13:39] <edgy> ikonia: thanks for your care
[13:39] <ActionParsnip1> KX: ok, run nautilus from terminal and you'll get intelligent outputs

[13:40] <KX> Well it's 3 lines
[13:40] <KX> do I need to pastebin that?
[13:40] <ikonia> edgy: I use it all the time

[13:52] <madrazr> Hello all, is it possible to use apt or Synaptic using SSH?
[13:52] <Pici> jaypur: For which version of Ubuntu?
[13:52] <madrazr> please help me
[13:52] <jaypur> Pici, 8.10
[13:52] <MarvinJ> Hello, I have an installation issue... I'm trying to install mythbuntu via wubi. After the windows reboot, I see the mythbuntu screen but after a while the screen goes black, and never restarts. If someone could point me in the correct direction, I would be greatly appreciative. The Wubi FAQ doesn't help much. Thanks.
[13:52] <Pici> jaypur: There is no proprietary driver support for that card.
[13:52] <jaypur> Pici, its coming up man
[13:53] <Pici> madrazr: You mean from within an ssh session?
[13:53] <ikonia> edgy: there are some interesting notes about some compatability issues with certain opensolaris builds and kvm

[13:53] <SlimeyPete> madrazr: apt-cache search <package>
[13:54] <edgy> ikonia: like what?
[13:54] <madrazr> Pici: for example I should be able to give a local machine name in the APT line
[13:54] <perlsyntax> does anyone know why i get this error with awn?
[13:54] <madrazr> Pici: : Assuming I am on a LAN and repo exists on one of the machines
[13:54] <ikonia> edgy: some of the virtual hardware it presents is not compatible with certain builds
[13:54] <madrazr> SlimeyPete: what?
[13:54] <ikonia> edgy: that doesn't mean it's not compatible, just some issues
[13:54] <SlimeyPete> madrazr: I thought you wanted to know how to use apt from the commandline (via SSH)

[13:59] <IndyGunFreak> lichtgestalt: lol, that sounds ugly

[14:29] <za119> hey I have a dilema, I have a 320gb HD, with two partitions on it, one is ext3 with 200gb of data on it, videos, music, etc..... just folders.. the other partition is my linux OS, it is the ubuntu server partition, how do I combine the partitions into one big partition and store the folders from the larger partition in the home folder of the partition with the ubuntu-server files
[14:30] <SlimeyPete> madrazr: the URL I gave you shows you how to create your own repository (not a mirror). I thought you could create a repository out of your /var/apt/cache by following the instructions there.
[14:30] <xepra> bobbob1016: does the drive have a little switch to make it read only?  Some have that, you just need to flip the switch back
[14:30] <bobbob1016> b33r, "chmod: changing permissions of `/media/drive/files': Read-only file system"
[14:30] <bobbob1016> xepra, No
[14:30] <madrazr> SlimeyPete: Ouch let me try then
[14:30] <xepra> shawng_work  -- what about like putty, then using top?
[14:31] <bobbob1016> xepra, I get the same in a sudo nautilus, I can't delete or create files
[14:32] <xepra> bobbob1016: does it work in windows?
[14:32] <xepra> well, i should say, how is it formatted?
[14:32] <bobbob1016> xepra, I'm Linux only now.  I think it's fat32
[14:32] <za119> anyomne?
[14:32] <xepra> za119:  why not just mount it to a folder in your home directory?
[14:33] <mitchell> after connecting to my VPN, I want to forward my external traffic through my Local Gateway not the vpn gateway, how do I do this?
[14:33] <xepra> or as the home directory?
[14:33] <za119> xepra that does not take care of the problem it is just a way around it
[14:34] <bobbob1016> xepra, b33r, I guess adding read-only to my forums search instead of read only made the difference, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=931917&highlight=flash+drive+read-only thanks for the help
[14:35] <sken> hello ubu guys
[14:35] <sken> i  am looking for jimbo
[14:35] <za119> I know this has to be possible xepra you know?
[14:35] <xepra> za119...  I guess I don't understand the problem then
[14:35] <sken> does anybody know where jimbo is?
[14:35] <romesh> can anyone tell software used for ip scanner (ex netscan,dc++ used in windows os)
[14:35] <xepra> why would you want to combine the partitions in the first place?
[14:36] <xepra> its usually better to have a separate partition for storage
[14:36] <za119> xepra I hvae two ext3 partitions on my HD, both have fiels on them (one just movies and data and the other has the system files for my ubuntu server)... I want to combine the two partitions into one partition and comebine their files....
[14:37] <xepra> well its usually better to have a separate partition for your data
[14:37] <xepra> that way if you system gets fubar you can reformat the partition...
[14:37] <b33r> za119, imo it's better to keep your movies and data on a separate partition.. so if something goes wrong you can reformat without losing anything
[14:37] <glacius> Hey guys quick question I am running ubuntu 8.10 and sometimes flash audio plays and other times not, ny clue why his is
[14:38] <xepra> i've always had some problems with flash
[14:38] <xepra> i know thats not helpful
[14:38] <xepra> lol
[14:38] <MaT-dg> I set up my samba server, connect via \\<ip-adress> in windows-explorer and I'm presented with the login screen, now where can I set the user and pass to gain full acces?
[14:38] <b33r> glacius, do you have any other application using sound when sound isn't working in flash?
[14:38] <romesh>  can anyone tell software used for ip scanner (ex netscan,dc++ used in windows os)
[14:38] <xepra> za119: there are ways to shrink and grow partitions, but I don't know right off the top of my head what they are, but its probably be some command line operations
[14:38] <xepra> you are going to need to google them
[14:38] <glacius> b33r: maybe
[14:38] <PATX> can some help me partition my disc i have read the manual but i am still having trouble
[14:38] <luismi__> k pasa brothers
[14:39] <xepra> there is probably not a combine partitions operation
, maybe some other programm is using your sound server at the same time and it conflicts with flash
[14:39] <xepra> but you can incrementally grow one partition, copy files to it from the other partition, then shrink that one, etc
[14:39] <glacius> b33r lcimber: how can i tell
[14:39] <romesh>  can anyone tell software used for ip scanner (ex netscan,dc++ used in windows os)
[14:39] <xepra> although ext3 journaling may interfere with the growing/shrinking
[14:39] <lclimber> try sudo /etc/init.d/alsa force-reload and then try to watch the same video that didnt work before
[14:40] <wh1t3_UB> romesh: nmap?
[14:40] <IrishDavid> hey, i just installed kubuntu using sudo apt-get install kubuntu-destop but i want to remove it and the associated applications. I tried sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop but that only removed the ghost package. how do i remove all the kde apps as well and only have gnome left?
[14:40] <b33r> xepra, growing or shrinking a partition might cause serious damage
[14:40] <bazhang> !puregnome
[14:40] <xepra> ya, I def wouldn't recommend it
[14:41] <PATX> so i should not insatll unbuntu
[14:41] <xepra> well if you have additional storage, just copy stuff over then do your operations
[14:41] <xepra> I asked this a bit earlier, but no1 replied: anyone have experience with the 3g functionality in 810?
[14:41] <xepra> I can't get it to work...
[14:41] <lclimber> if after you do that the audio works then you got some app conflicts, that used to happen to me with xine, then i figured that the system sounds (from gnome) was cousing that conflict so i disabled them and then it worked great
[14:41] <RUMMY> I have installed ubuntu 8.04, need I upgrade my system, or install 8.10 ?

[14:41] <psyferre> hey folks, I'm trying to connect to a ms sql database via python on ubuntu.  I think I  must be missing a package I need or something because whenever I try to build pymssql I get mssqldbmodule.c:1194: error: expected â;â before âreturnâ    error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1.  Complete error text here: http://rafb.net/p/7skNZt77.html Can anyone give me a shove in the right direction?  I'm at a loss =-/

[14:42] <AdvoWork> if ive got a folder under: places > Network> sftp ... how can i open that location from a file dialog?
[14:42] <xepra> billybigrigger: so if you right click the network applet you can click edit connections and there is a mobile internet tab
[14:42] <RUMMY> I know how to upgrade system, but need I do that? or I can use 8.04 and update everything
[14:43] <bonhoffer> for some reason my ubuntu cd will not install after the initial install screen when i click on 'install ubuntu' nothing happens
[14:43] <xepra> billybigrigger: so I configured that, but I don't know how to tell it to connect, it just doesn't seem to do anything
[14:43] <bonhoffer> i can only click "boot from hard drive"
[14:43] <xepra> billybigrigger: I have tried usb and bt
[14:43] <bonhoffer> any way to get me over this hump -- nothing to troubleshoot
[14:43] <ActionParsnip1> RUMMY: if yu like hardy, stick with it. you can sudo apt-get upgrade and it will update yuor apps but keep you on hardy
[14:44] <mitchell> connecting to VPN works great with network-manager, but I don't want to use the default gateway on the remote network. How do I do this?
[14:44] <aaron> do I need to configure my own dns bind server to send out external mail with sendmail or can I configure sendmail to use a named server from internet?
[14:44] <glacius> b33r lcimber: same thing
[14:44] <ActionParsnip1> bonhoffer: did you md5 check the iso you downloaded as well as check the cd for defects
[14:44] <b33r> bonhoffer, check cd for defects
[14:44] <xepra> billybigrigger: In the past I have used wvdial with ttyACM0 (usb) or rfcomm0(bt), which worked fine, i was just looking forward to automatic configuration and a gui
[14:44] <wh1t3_UB> since updating to 8.10 my nautilus can no longer open smb:// links, any reason for that?
[14:44] <bonhoffer> ActionParsnip1, yes -- md5 sum check done
[14:44] <bonhoffer> i can't check the cd for defects -- that doesn't run

[14:49] <erUSUL> NW2190: only thing i can think of is to install the hardy debs... or compile yourself (probably very hard)
[14:49] <slacker_nl> Pici: i really doubt that

[14:54] <GiantTalkingCow> 8.04 is much more stable at the moment.
[14:54] <xepra>  AdvoWork, you may want to look in to sshfs
[14:54] <billybigrigger_> xepra, i plugged it in, looked at lsusb, saw that my modem was picked up...didnt have to do any config
[14:54] <billybigrigger_> xepra, plugged it in and it worked out of the box

[14:56] <egoflux> cool
