[04:41] <Gnea> BENN92647: i gotta go sleep tho
[04:41] <shrimants> in any case, heres whats goin on(http://shrimants.blogspot.com): the subwoofer and the PC Speaker are controlled differently, the master volume doesnt control the master volume, just PC Speaker, and the media keys only control PC Speaker. i figure that theres a config file somewhere for the alsa mixer/media keys, i just dont know where or what to do to it
[04:42] <Gnea> BENN92647: maybe someone else knows how to configure totem
[04:42] <BENN92647> Gnea: ok thank you ever soooooo mcuh for all the hours you spent helping me today It is appreciated

[04:50] <HellTrade> two quostions
[04:50] <dabaR> Fivetwentysix: try sudo dpkg --reconfigure gdm. then sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart
[04:51] <noiesmo> BENN92647: sudo mount -a then
[04:51] <Fivetwentysix> Thank you
[04:51] <HellTrade> anyone?
[04:51] <Flannel> !anyone | HellTrade
[04:51] <h3xis> verb3k_ nm-applet
[04:51] <ubotu> HellTrade: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:51] <usser> Jack31: theres a thing called alias
[04:51] <craigbass1976> I want to do video capture.  When I fire up the camera, I get "usb 3-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 5" in /var/log/messages but am not sure what to do in kino to see what the camera is seeing.
[04:51] <Fivetwentysix> Wait that reconfigures gdm? My gnome is fine but KDE has a problem
[04:51] <Fivetwentysix> dabar: Wait that reconfigures gdm? My gnome is fine but KDE has a problem
[04:51] <usser> Jack31: find a .bashrc file in your home and put the following there
[04:52] <dabaR> Fivetwentysix: one moment, please.
[04:52] <HellTrade> That are 3 but two important ones
[04:52] <BENN92647> noiesmo: it asked for password then did nothing?
[04:52] <Fivetwentysix> Thanks
[04:52] <Jack31> yeh i know about alias, oh make it do alias apt-get=sudo apt-get?
[04:52] <usser> Jack31: alias apt-get='sudo apt-get'
[04:52] <HellTrade> 1. how can I encrypt the hd?
[04:52] <Jack31> yeh, exactly :D
[04:52] <noiesmo> Fivetwentysix: all infor for your user for kde is stored in ~/.kde/ if you remove these files and then start kde again settings will be reset to default
[04:52] <philwhln> dabaR, azureus seems to be core dumping. Problematic frame: C  [libglibjni-0.4.so+0x9172]
[04:52] <HellTrade> 2. can I change parition size if there is the rest windows and swap?
[04:52] <satandole666> Can someone help me with resolution problems...hardware is 8800gts 320mb and Dell P1100 21" trinitron CRT...tried the guides from the ubuntu forums and couldn't get anything to work
[04:52] <HellTrade> (have two more haha)
[04:52] <LKRaider> Jack31: I actually alias apt='sudo apt-get install'  :)
[04:53] <Yuno> can someone help me set pu my ATI x1300 graphics card
[04:53] <bruenig> alias agi='sudo apt-get install'
[04:53] <Cryoniq> kubuntu is kinda interesting.. managed to remove the nvidia-glx, nvidia-glx-legacy and nvidia-kernel module and not apt-get just being an idiot and refuse to let me install them again because it thinks (broken) install. So I go to nvidia for the fracken proprietary driver and get hold of install, and when building it fails to build kernel module and no availanle for system to download.. this starting to drive me mad.. lol
[04:53] <Jack31> LKraider, how can you do apt-get update etc?
[04:53] <h3xis> Yuno i have that same card. what do you need?
[04:53] <Jack31> lkraider, oh, its just for apt command
[04:53] <Yuno> well..
[04:53] <Jack31> ncie
[04:53] <verb3k_> h3xis, thank you very much ...but  it doesn't appear and I don't get the command prompt back ...
[04:53] <usser> Jack31: or just write a script
[04:53] <BENN92647> Noeismo: I did sudo mount -a and it asked for password then nothing happened after that
[04:53] <LKRaider> Jack31: yes. I also alias update='sudo apt-get update'  :P
[04:53] <h3xis> verb3k_ it just doesnt appear at all? do you have the system tray enabled?
[04:53] <HellTrade> Why do you nat answer questions privately?
[04:53] <arsalan> anyone recommend a good cd/dvd burning software for ubuntu? something simple and uncluttered
[04:54] <Jack31> nice
[04:54] <Fivetwentysix> noiesmo: my problem is when i load kde the screen is black
[04:54] <verb3k_> h3xis, yeah
[04:54] <h3xis> arsalan gnomebaker or k3b is fine
[04:54] <santhony12441> Just installed ubuntu as a dual-boot on a home built PC; hibernate works, suspend doesn't. I could use some help either figuring out why suspend fails, or how to make hibernate automatic.
[04:54] <usser> arsalan: k3b is pretty cool its for kde though
[04:54] <noiesmo> BENN92647: then all the drives listed in fstab are mounted you can do df -h to list mounted drives
[04:54] <Flannel> !burn | arsalan
[04:54] <ubotu> arsalan: CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus cd burner (Gnome), gtoaster, xcdroast, cdrecord (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[04:54] <arsalan> h3xis: thanks
[04:54] <Fivetwentysix> noiesmo: nothing appears but a loading cursor
[04:54] <h3xis> verb3k_ try reinstalling it then?
[04:54] <Cryoniq> ...at least it isn't like windows, doing stuff and doesnt tell what problems actually are :P (being positive here)
[04:54] <Yuno> when i enable ATI drivers and reboot it gives me a error saying x-server failed to start
[04:54] <h3xis> Yuno how did you install them
[04:55] <foxiness> is there an editor support aspx (just highlight if i can add this to gedit or monodevelop will be better)
[04:55] <Jack31> arsalan, go grab the nero linux beta 3
[04:55] <verb3k_> h3xis,  could you please tell me how to reinstall it?
[04:55] <Jack31> its free :D, for now
[04:55] <HellTrade> this is too fast for me
[04:55] <noiesmo> Fivetwentysix: did you remove any kde packages etc what did you do before kde stoped working
[04:55] <BENN92647> noiesmo: LOL doesnt show any of my CD/DVD roms as mounted
[04:55] <usser> Jack31: nah nero sucks
[04:55] <chuckrevar> hi all
[04:55] <h3xis> verb3k_ let me look up the name of the package, i forgot :/
[04:55] <steev> HellTrade: yeah, it gets crazy sometimes
[04:55] <Jack31> nero rocks bah
[04:55] <HellTrade> and who ever asked me before why everyone asked if I can get help because I did not
[04:55] <verb3k_> h3xis,  your memory is just as mine :)
[04:55] <chuckrevar> can anybody help me access my "connect to server" windows mount via songbird
[04:56] <Aresilek> This is my partition table: http://rafb.net/p/ShA2TW41.html I wish to recover the 2 gigs of lost space between sda3 and sda4, can anyone help, i'm using kubuntu 7 live cd
[04:56] <Fivetwentysix> noiesmo: I just installed KDE
[04:56] <HellTrade> and also because it is polite
[04:56] <noiesmo> BENN92647: can you not just remove cdrom and re insert so ubuntu remounts it
[04:56] <Yuno> i used uhh...
[04:56] <HellTrade> I write in a forum that is better
[04:56] <dabaR> Fivetwentysix: look for the kubuntu-desktop package.
[04:56] <Jack31> usser: maybe i love it cause i used to use it on windows all the time, but it never gave me trouble and has lots of features
[04:56] <arsalan> nero was pain enough in windows. you set it to write a batch of dvds, and the computer is useless until it's done
[04:56] <shrimants> when i start ubuntu, it automounts my windows XP partition. i cant unmount it because "permission is denied" how do i prevent it from mounting? should i make it a hidden partition?
[04:56] <BENN92647> noiesom you me physically take it out and put it back?
[04:56] <noiesmo> Fivetwentysix: k maybe install kubuntu-desktop as dabaR mentioned
[04:56] <Jack31> arsalan: you musta had a cruddy computer :p
[04:56] <Fivetwentysix> It is iinstalled.
[04:57] <usser> Jack31: yea i know its the app for windows, however k3b is in many respects the same if not better
[04:57] <h3xis> verb3k_ try sudo apt-get --reinstall install network-manager-gnome
[04:57] <noiesmo> BENN92647: no just the cd it self not the drive or is the drive not being seen
[04:57] <Aresilek> i want to know the answer to shrimants question as well
[04:57] <BENN92647> noiesmo: you mean take it out and phyiscally put it back in
[04:57] <Yuno> h3xis: how did you install it since i just did a clean wipe
[04:57] <h3xis> Yuno i downloaded the .run file from amd's site and ran it
[04:57] <arsalan> Jack31: athlon 2600+ with a gig of ram. it was windows after all :P
[04:57] <Jack31> usser: ah, i havent actually use k3b, havent had a need to burn cds :p
[04:57] <verb3k_> h3xis,  thanks h3xis  for taking the time and trouble to help me ...thank you very much
[04:57] <Jack31> arsalan: haha, yeh windows probably used 3/4 for itself :P
[04:58] <arsalan> Jack31: i still wake up in the middle of the night to make sure it really is uninstalled
[04:58] <Yuno> i was using the fglx driver or something
[04:58] <raxor> crdlb, still around?
[04:58] <arsalan> Jack31: what a nightmare...
[04:58] <UzzaDead> evening all, I'm trying to set beryl-manager to run as a startup program and it tells me to go to System > Preferences > Sessions and I can't seem to locate it any help on that?
[04:58] <crdlb> raxor: yep
[04:58] <chuckrevar> does "connect to server" create a mount anywhere?
[04:58] <Jack31> arsalan: what uninstalled, windowS?
[04:58] <flyingsquirrel33> When I sync my palm device, the sync is successfull, but the log shows, it hasn't synced contacts or half of the other things in the list.
[04:58] <raxor> crdlb, I reinstalled and eveything worked out of the box...
[04:59] <steev> UzzaDead: first off, you're using Ubuntu and not Kubuntu, right?
[04:59] <arsalan> Jack31: yup. after WINE, it seemed silly to keep it lying around
[04:59] <Justi1> Anyone familiar with the Codeweavers Crossover program?
[04:59] <Aresilek> This is my partition table: http://rafb.net/p/ShA2TW41.html I wish to recover the 2 gigs of lost space between sda3 and sda4, can anyone help, i'm using kubuntu 7 live cd
[04:59] <raxor> crdlb, the only thing I did differently was I didn't enable the restricted mode drivers during nstall the second time... I think that causes things to not work...
[04:59] <taometaway> I have a really annoying problem... I restart and randomly (it seems) it starts a different session from like 2 weeks ago... how can I see the sessions and delete extras?
[05:00] <Yuno> h3xis: what manufacturer? i have a visiontek
[05:00] <dabaR> Fivetwentysix: so logging into gnome works fine?
[05:00] <h3xis> Yuno of laptop?
[05:00] <Jack31> arsalan: I still keep windows cause i know that sometime i wil have programs only for windows that I like, especially like Joost and tvuplayer, neither work well in wine
[05:00] <Fivetwentysix> dabaR: yes
[05:00] <steev> taometaway: should be System-> Preferences ->sessions
[05:00] <albertmk> Can anyone help me?
[05:00] <Yuno> no the x1300
[05:00] <chuckrevar> anybody know how to have songbird access my ubuntu mounted windows server volume?
[05:00] <h3xis> albertmk with what
[05:00] <Fivetwentysix> dabaR: I'm going to try loading kde up again brb.
[05:00] <albertmk> I type "sudo apt-get install gdal"
[05:00] <steev> albertmk: with waht?
[05:00] <taometaway> steev, ok, so I go there, then what?
[05:00] <h3xis> Yuno ati radeon mobility
[05:00] <albertmk> and it says that cannot find this package.
[05:00] <Yuno> oh i have the desktop verison
[05:00] <h3xis> albertmk what package do you need
[05:00] <Justi1> Anyone familiar with the Codeweavers Crossover program? or Anyone familiar with installing WoW onto Ubuntu, that is my ultimate goal here. And yes i've tried the walkthrough on the ubuntu/world of warcraft help section.
[05:00] <Aresilek> How do I stop ubuntu from mounting my partitions?
[05:00] <raxor> chuckrevar, by access do you mean search for media?
[05:01] <dabaR> Fivetwentysix: how about installing xnest, then running gdmflexiserver --xnest, and trying to log into KDE?
[05:01] <verb3k_> h3xis, it seems that network manager is working perfectly but I can't see the icon even after reinstalling the package
[05:01] <taometaway> steev cause all I have is start programs, current session and session options
[05:01] <arsalan> Jack31: i miss photoshop CS2. GIMP is good, but no lens correction or HDR. but windows isn't worth it.
[05:01] <UzzaDead> steev, kubuntu, dont beat me :D
[05:01] <chuckrevar> raxor - well I don't know where to start the search
[05:01] <chuckrevar> its doesnt see my mounts
[05:01] <usser> Aresilek: edit /etc/fstab but u gotta know what are u doing
[05:01] <steev> taometaway: that should show the session that it starts up with...make sure that that one has the things that you want....you're saying that your problem is that sometimes it starts with your usual session, but ocassionally with a different one?
[05:01] <chuckrevar> it doesnt see my mounts
[05:01] <santhony12441> Repost: I could use some help on problems with suspend/hibernate. Is there a better channel for that?
[05:01] <h3xis> verb3k_ in terminal type ps aux | grep nm-applet and see if you get anything back
[05:01] <dabaR> UzzaDead: what specifically.
[05:01] <raxor> chuckrevar, can you see the mounts browsing around in the ubuntu desktop?
[05:01] <verb3k_> h3xis,  ok
[05:01] <Aresilek> usser: i'm using a live cd
[05:01] <chuckrevar> rexor yes
[05:02] <steev> uzzadead: not a big deal. i acutally like kde better.
[05:02] <usser> Aresilek: what mounts then?
[05:02] <UzzaDead> Kubuntu 7.04 Feisty
[05:02] <will> anyone here installed ubuntu on a ps3?
[05:02] <taometaway> steev yeah, and I lost tons of data and stuff, I just want something stable so I can rebuild
[05:02] <taometaway> *sighs*
[05:02] <Jack31> arsalan: yeh i have photoshopCS2 / aftereffects/ premier pro, its worth it to keep windows if you use those for video editing alot IMO
[05:02] <will> mine says "permission denied" at the kboot prompt
[05:02] <steev> uzzadead: however, that's not why it's working for you, those are instructions for gnome
[05:02] <Fivetwentysix> Still no luck
[05:02] <Fivetwentysix> Could it be because I installed my nvidia drivers before installing KDE?
[05:02] <raxor> chuckrevar, hmm, then I am not sure, I only ever had it not see my ipod
[05:02] <shrimants> bbl, im booted in windows right now
[05:02] <Justi1> Anyone familiar with the Codeweavers Crossover program? or Anyone familiar with installing WoW onto Ubuntu, that is my ultimate goal here. And yes i've tried the walkthrough on the ubuntu/world of warcraft help section. Another channel maybe? any feedback is appreciated.
[05:02] <UzzaDead> yeah so i figured but i attemtped to find my way to where i needed to go but i cant
[05:02] <verb3k_> h3xis,  there is :   nm-applet --sm-disable
[05:03] <h3xis> verb3k_ i'm not sure what that argument is o.0
[05:03] <will> ps3 ubuntu, permission denied, anyone?
[05:03] <chuckrevar> raxor - you know if the "connect to server" mounting creates mounts on disk?
[05:03] <steev> taometaway: ahh...I guess then I don't really know what to tell you. I haven't heard of that happening...I guess all you can do is make sure  that you dont have a session saved or something...
[05:03] <chuckrevar> I've looked around
[05:03] <Aresilek> my extended linux partitions
[05:03] <verb3k_> h3xis,  strange case I am having :)
[05:03] <usser> chuckrevar: no
[05:03] <Aresilek> which i want to delete
[05:03] <taometaway> steev so should I check or uncheck "auto save"?
[05:03] <usser> chuckrevar: but u can use smbfs
[05:03] <h3xis> verb3k_ do killall nm-applet and then do "nm-applet &" in the terminal and see what happens
[05:03] <usser> chuckrevar: and mount command
[05:03] <chuckrevar> yeah I'll try that
[05:03] <steev> tametaway: i have mine unchecked
[05:03] <verb3k_> h3xis,  ok
[05:03] <guerrillawon> What's that popular music player for linux? I can't remember the name. The icon is a wolf?
[05:04] <UzzaDead> amarok
[05:04] <chuckrevar> but thats a pain
[05:04] <guerrillawon> ahh yes
[05:04] <mae> amarok is lame
[05:04] <steev> uzzadead: give me one second to recall from my memory how to do it on kde, i've been using ubuntu since fiesty came out
[05:04] <Yuno> h3xis: i get this when i open the .run file
[05:04] <Yuno> Could not open the file /home/ubuntu/Desktop/atiler-8.36.5-x86.x86_64.run using the Western (ISO-8859-15) character coding.
[05:04] <arsalan> rhythmbox > amarok
[05:04] <mae> its bloated
[05:04] <guerrillawon> mae your suggestion?
[05:04] <verb3k_> h3xis,  same result
[05:04] <mae> and banshee is oversimplified
[05:04] <raxor> chuckrevar, are you accessing them the same way? I thought you just needed to set watched folders to "/mnt/share" or "/media/xxx" or whatever...
[05:04] <mae> rhythmbox
[05:04] <masterk> can someone help me install my video drivers?
[05:04] <UzzaDead> alright steev  no big hurry :D
[05:04] <mae> or beep-media-player and konq :)
[05:04] <linuxnub> hihi
[05:04] <h3xis> Yuno do chmod +x ati* then try to run it
[05:04] <Yuno> masterk is it a x1300?
[05:04] <h3xis> verb3k_ have you restarted? :p i'm running out of ideas
[05:04] <UzzaDead> how about winamp mae?
[05:04] <masterk> I have S3 Savage IX8+ and it doesn't show up as that in the info thingy
[05:04] <linuxnub> can anyone help me to figure out why my cd player wont work in ubuntu
[05:04] <mae> haven't tried it
[05:05] <UzzaDead> lol, its a windows app :)
[05:05] <steev> uzzadead: okay, well, if you're not afraid of the command line, the file '~/.kde/Autostart' is a script that runs when you first login
[05:05] <Justi1> Anyone familiar with the Codeweavers Crossover program? or Anyone familiar with installing WoW onto Ubuntu, that is my ultimate goal here. And yes i've tried the walkthrough on the ubuntu/world of warcraft help section. Another channel maybe? any feedback is appreciated.
[05:05] <UzzaDead> i was expecting a beating
[05:05] <mae> rhythmbox is good because it has the radio and ipod features but its been around a long time and is fairly stable
[05:05] <Punkunity> hello
[05:05] <dabaR> UzzaDead: what exactly about amarok (btw, to learn how to ask questions on a support channel, google "smart questions raymond")
[05:05] <usser> UzzaDead: winamp works in wine btw
[05:05] <arsalan> Jack31: guess so. those are pretty expensive software apps.
[05:05] <Aresilek> usser: it mounts my linux partition which i want to delete
[05:05] <masterk> and just in case your wondering I'm using kubuntu but no one there is of any help right now
[05:05] <UzzaDead> steev, will editing that work for me?
[05:05] <h3xis> running winamp under linux is stupid. run audacious instead. it's basically a replica
[05:05] <usser> Aresilek: oh, cant u just unmount it?
[05:06] <steev> uzzadead: so you can add the line 'beryl-manager' to it, and it should run it
[05:06] <verb3k_> h3xis,  :)  ....I am having this for 2 days I think ....so restart won't fix anything :) ....I will try to figure something out then .....thanks for your precious time brother :)
[05:06] <steev> uzzadead: but let me see if i can find the gui way
[05:06] <taometaway> oh well, thanks steev, I'm going to do some industrial cleaning with kdirstat or something, it's pry not super wise but I'm about to uninstall.
[05:06] <h3xis> verb3k_ okay :p i'll check around on google for a few minutes
[05:06] <UzzaDead> im not afraid of the command line worst i can do is get scared and exit the file without saving
[05:06] <Jack31> whats with the application in medibunter, like amarok-xine?
[05:06] <Jack31> what does that mean, a plugin for xine?
[05:06] <masterk> I found a driver for it but I have no clue how to install it: http://www.probo.com/timr/savage40.html
[05:06] <UzzaDead> steev, the file is empty is that normal?
[05:07] <h3xis> verb3k_ i dont run gnome so idk about this but is "notification area" and system tray the same thing?
[05:07] <Yuno> h3xis: that seemed to work
[05:07] <h3xis> Yuno ;)
[05:07] <steev> taometaway: okay, good luck. sorry i cant help more
[05:07] <Aresilek> usser: http://rafb.net/p/5v59AK21.html these are my mounts i don't see it there
[05:07] <steev> uzzadead: yep
[05:07] <verb3k_> h3xis,  hmmm let me see
[05:07] <linuxnub> hello my cdrom wont work help plz
[05:07] <UzzaDead> alright let me give that a whirl
[05:07] <taometaway> steev, thanks, it's cool... it's weird.
[05:07] <usser> masterk: thats for xfree
[05:07] <h3xis> linuxnub be more specific?
[05:07] <UzzaDead> be back in a min
[05:07] <usser> masterk: ubuntu uses xorg
[05:07] <masterk> oh... I'm just a noob...
[05:07] <linuxnub> my cd rom fails to mount or read anything
[05:08] <masterk> lol
[05:08] <mooma> Does anyone know what to do for an upgrade that is totally messed. I came home last week and upgraded to 7.04 (I realize that was my first mistake) and now I cannot login to my regular account. I added another account, and I can get that to work, but I cannot get a terminal open. Every time I try to start one up the session crashes, and I have to log in again.
[05:08] <linuxnub> in ubuntu only
[05:08] <h3xis> linuxnub what are you trying to mount and how are you doing it?
[05:08] <|_ocke> ah
[05:08] <|_ocke> in a weird spot
[05:08] <linuxnub> works great in pclos, mandriva, debian and sabayon
[05:08] <foxiness> is there a way on ubuntu to get the 0.13 monodevelop ?
[05:08] <Yuno> h3xis: all it seemed to do was extract a bunch of stuf
[05:08] <masterk> well the driver with kubuntu 6.06 and after all the updates to newest updates is still not showing up as the device I have
[05:08] <verb3k_> h3xis,  That's it :) ....what a stupid guy I am ..it is actually in the notification area
[05:08] <Yuno> it that what it was suppose to do?
[05:08] <h3xis> verb3k_ haha okay
[05:09] <|_ocke> brb
[05:09] <verb3k_> h3xis,  thanks bro
[05:09] <h3xis> Yuno i believe so. did it say it installed it?
[05:09] <usser> Aresilek: ok, its not there what happens when u try to delete your partition
[05:09] <jturek> anybody here from the Broomfield Colorado area?
[05:09] <gluttony> is it possible to make a file that runs a predefined set of commands?
[05:09] <Aresilek> usser: it says its mounted
[05:09] <h3xis> gluttony shell script?
[05:10] <UzzaDead> doesnt look like it worked steev
[05:10] <steev> gluttony: a shell script?
[05:10] <usser> Aresilek: well hm i dunno
[05:10] <Yuno> terminal jus gave a bumch of dots and then had ATI Tech.
[05:10] <gluttony> h3xis: is shell the same as terminal?
[05:10] <steev> uzzadead: hmm. still trying to google up the graphical way...
[05:10] <Yuno> bunch*
[05:10] <craigbass1976> Anyone ever done video capture from a camcorder with usb?
[05:10] <h3xis> gluttony terminal is a shell, but you need a shell script
[05:10] <Yuno> then the terminal window closed
[05:10] <h3xis> gluttony know what batch files are in windows?
[05:10] <UzzaDead> can you paste the directory that file should be in again?
[05:10] <masterk> it shows up as "S3 Inc. 86C270-294 Savage/IX-MV (rev 13)" in lspci but I should have a "S3 Savage IX8+"
[05:10] <h3xis> Yuno are you getting a dialog box of some sort?
[05:10] <patricio> efefef
[05:10] <eytrtu> I'm testing out pidgin's "invisible" mode. can someone put me on their buddylist and see if im visible or not? my AIM is amfibeus

[05:11] <Yuno> i'll screensho it
[05:11] <gluttony> h3xis: heard of them. never knew how to make one
[05:11] <UzzaDead> i think i screwed up :D

[05:12] <Aresilek> usser: never mind sudo swapoff -a did the trick

[05:12] <masterk> then why isn't it showing up as the correct device?
[05:12] <pianoman> hello all
[05:12] <nixternal> thanks nalioth
[05:12] <UzzaDead> steev, it says Autostart is a directory
[05:12] <__mikem> horray for nalioth
[05:12] <steev> uzzadead: try doing this instead: run ln -s /usr/bin/beryl-manager ~/.kde/Autostart/beryl-manager
[05:12] <usser> masterk: what does it say it is?
[05:12] <steev> uzzadead: yeah, it is
[05:12] <masterk> it shows up as "S3 Inc. 86C270-294 Savage/IX-MV (rev 13)" in lspci but I should have a "S3 Savage IX8+"
[05:13] <UzzaDead> :D there goes my n00bness rearing its head
[05:13] <steev> uzzadead: that command will put a symlink to beryl-manager into your autostart folder
[05:13] <bruenig> steev, iirc ln is not fond of ~
[05:13] <gluttony> h3xis: whats bin/bash? is it something i need to change?
[05:13] <h3xis> gluttony where do you see that?
[05:13] <bruenig> gluttony, no, that is the name of the shell, the bash shell
[05:13] <pianoman> is there a way to upgrade to Fiesty through terminal?
[05:13] <eytrtu> h3xis - sorry to bug you, but how about now?
[05:13] <radu> does anyone know why when I click to start terminal a taskbar thing tab pops up that says "starting terminal" stays for a couple of seconds then disapears and terminal doesnt open up for me
[05:13] <bruenig> gluttony, when you open a terminal, you are actually in a bash shell, so just put the commands there as you would put them in the terminal
[05:13] <steev> bruenig: oh? I've never had problems...maybe my tab completion tends to expand it to the full /home/steev
[05:13] <jeremyb> make that patricio
[05:13] <Yuno> h3xis: http://img201.imageshack.us/img201/1065/screenshotyk1.png
[05:13] <h3xis> eytrtu still offline
[05:13] <h3xis> Yuno k
[05:13] <arsalan> video card question: if i upgrade my card, will X boot properly or will i need to switch it to vesa mode beforehand?
[05:13] <eytrtu> ok
[05:14] <bruenig> steev, I know it gets upset sometimes about full paths, I forget if ~ is part of that
[05:14] <orlo> h3xix/UzzaDead - can root be gotten at login
[05:14] <jeremyb> numist: does patricio do that often?  that was really weird... not exactly flooding or spamming... not sure what to call it :s
[05:14] <steev> uzzadead: bruenig mentioned that ln might have a problem with the ~, so try /home/YourUserName instead
[05:14] <Yuno> also h3xis it show more but terminal closes before i get a screenshot
[05:14] <gluttony> bruenig: how do i save the commands?
[05:14] <UzzaDead> ok
[05:14] <bruenig> gluttony, you put that in a text file
[05:14] <steev> bruenig: awesome. i'll keep that in mind, thanks :)
[05:14] <will> n/m, bad cd
[05:14] <will> bye all
[05:14] <masterk> usser: it shows up as "S3 Inc. 86C270-294 Savage/IX-MV (rev 13)" in lspci but I should have a "S3 Savage IX8+"
[05:14] <radu> does anyone know why when I click to start terminal a taskbar thing tab pops up that says "starting terminal" stays for a couple of seconds then disapears and terminal doesnt open up for me
[05:15] <gluttony> bruenig: do i give it a certain file extension?
[05:15] <numist> jeremyb: .?
[05:15] <h3xis> Yuno it's not running in the background? it should pop up a dialog box starting the installation
[05:15] <Yuno> nope :\
[05:15] <h3xis> Yuno terminal should NOT close
[05:15] <bruenig> gluttony, no, put that in a text file, save the text file and then do chmod +x nameofthefile
[05:15] <h3xis> Yuno you're doing ./ati* right?
[05:15] <Yuno> yes
[05:15] <pianoman> is there a way to upgrade to Fiesty through terminal?
[05:15] <hatter> what do i do in feisty fawn with gnome to remember and reload all running apps on reboot ?
[05:15] <h3xis> Yuno as root or normal user?
[05:15] <Flannel> !upgrade | pianoman
[05:16] <ubotu> pianoman: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[05:16] <DerekS> it is not possible to have flash on a 64bit install...right?
[05:16] <Yuno> root
[05:16] <gluttony> bruenig: well, is there a way that all i have to do is click on the file?
[05:16] <bruenig> hatter, session saving is not a gnome feature
[05:16] <h3xis> Yuno try doing it as normal user
[05:16] <bruenig> gluttony, yes, after you chmod +x it, you should be able to just click it
[05:16] <hatter> bruenig: ah. do you know if kde does it ?
[05:16] <bimberi> radu: hit ALT-F2, type 'xterm', hit Run.  does a terminal pop up?
[05:16] <jeremyb> numist: person you just kicked.  i lastlogged and since join there were a bunch of lines but nothing intelligible.  only thing close to that i've seen on IRC is foreign charsets where they don't get you can't see their letters.
[05:16] <bruenig> gluttony, chmod +x means 'make it executable'
[05:16] <h3xis> hatter AFAIK gnome can save sessions
[05:16] <numist> I havent kicked anyone today...
[05:16] <numist> have I?
[05:16] <DanaG> Argh, Gnome is stalling at login.
[05:17] <UzzaDead> steev, trying again brb
[05:17] <jeremyb> grrrrrr
[05:17] <gluttony> bruenig: o ok. just curious, because i've become obsesed with terminal commands
[05:17] <bruenig> gluttony, they are handy
[05:17] <numist> jeremyb: maybe nalioth?
[05:17] <jeremyb> numist: SORRY :-{  (you're not nalioth)
[05:17] <numist> ya
[05:17] <steev> gluttony: once you start, you never go back :)
[05:17] <DanaG> Oh, and I'm still seeing a ridiculously long time between gnome-panel crashing and gnome-panel reloading.
[05:17] <usser> masterk: it probably is the same series/makes/models so it detects it IX-MV
[05:17] <bruenig> I have terminal shortcutted and I probably use it everytime I sit down at my desktop
[05:17] <gluttony> bruenig: oh, thats chmod from python. no wonder !# looked familier
[05:18] <jeremyb> numist: from now on all opers must have unique first letters in nicks.  ok? ;)
[05:18] <h3xis> hatter in your preferences look for Sessions
[05:18] <gluttony> bruenig: yeah, im talking irssi right not
[05:18] <Pelo> bruenig, windows key ?
[05:18] <steev> uzzadead: well?
[05:18] <UzzaDead> worked perfectly steev thanks alot
[05:18] <bruenig> Pelo, windows key + v, I use the windows key as the modifier key for all my shortcuts
[05:18] <masterk> well the reason I was looking into the driver was because in the mplayer plugin for firefox the video plays slower than the sound and the sound plays at normal speed usser
[05:18] <hatter> h3xis, ok thx
[05:18] <steev> uzzadead: awesome. apparently kde has no graphical method to do that, i can't believe it
[05:18] <gluttony> anyone know an instant messanger that is run in the terminal?
[05:18] <steev> uzzadead: maybe kde4...
[05:18] <bruenig> gluttony, gaim-text
[05:18] <Yuno> h3xis: Detected version of X does not have a matching 'x720' directory
[05:18] <Yuno> You may override the detected version using the following syntax:
[05:18] <Yuno>      X_VERSION=<xdir> ./ati-driver-installer-<ver>-<arch>.run [--install]
[05:18] <h3xis> hatter find it? there should be a checkbox that says something like "automatically save session" or something
[05:18] <bruenig> gluttony, or I think it is some other name now
[05:18] <masterk> !vista
[05:18] <ubotu> vista is the new operating system by the evil overlords from Redmond. For more information, see http://www.badvista.org
[05:18] <UzzaDead> maybe, but isnt that alpha or beta?
[05:19] <h3xis> gluttony naim
[05:19] <Yuno> i got terminal to stay
[05:19] <bruenig> gluttony, yeah it is called finch
[05:19] <gluttony> bruenig: just apt-get that right?
[05:19] <steev> uzzadead: kde4? yeah, pre-alpha ish
[05:19] <numist> jeremyb: bah
[05:19] <bruenig> gluttony, it should be installed with pidgin
[05:19] <hatter> h3xis, yes, it has autmatically save session
[05:19] <h3xis> hatter that's it then ;)
[05:19] <gluttony> bruenig: ah, see i dont have it
[05:19] <UzzaDead> i think i'll stay away from that with my not so stellar linux track record
[05:19] <bruenig> gluttony, type "finch"
[05:19] <hatter> h3xis, sounds good, i will try reboot shortly :)
[05:19] <craigbass1976> Anyone ever done video capture from a camcorder with usb?
[05:19] <steev> speaking of pidgin, how long till it's in the repos?
[05:20] <bruenig> oh pidgin isn't in the repos
[05:20] <bruenig> gluttony, I didn't realize pidgin wasn't in the repos, my fault
[05:20] <gluttony> bruenig: command not found
[05:20] <h3xis> Yuno i'm kind of fuzzy about this, but do you have an ati card at all?
[05:20] <dorio_man> How do you get a dumb terminal going in fiesty?  I'm lost not having /etc/inittab to edit.
[05:20] <gluttony> bruenig: its np
[05:20] <Flannel> steev: Pidgin will be in gutsy
[05:20] <bruenig> !info gaim

[05:20] <UzzaDead> whats pidgin?
[05:20] <bruenig> gluttony, gaim-text should be installed
[05:21] <bruenig> UzzaDead, new name of gaim
[05:21] <Pelo> UzzaDead,  the new name for gaim
[05:21] <madman_> ok this new version of ubuntu is tripping me out
[05:21] <harry_> but I don't want to wait 'til gutsy for pidgin
[05:21] <h3xis> UzzaDead gaim 2.0. it had to be renamed due to copyright issues
[05:21] <UzzaDead> oh
[05:21] <gluttony> bruenig: now, how do i make it do i dont have to use sudo?
[05:21] <UzzaDead> with AOL i assume?
[05:21] <bruenig> gluttony, for what?
[05:21] <h3xis> harry_ compile it yourself
[05:21] <h3xis> UzzaDead yes :S
[05:21] <gluttony> terminal installs
[05:21] <Pelo> madman91,  is that a good thing I 'm not up on the lingo
[05:21] <Flannel> gluttony: you don't want to.
[05:21] <UzzaDead> heh i figured as much, the basts
[05:21] <steev> flannel: that long? oh well...i've compiled it myself, and i really like it, but i dont' install non-repo software for the couple of people who aren't computer people, so i was wondering if they'd get it sometime soon. oh well
[05:21] <bruenig> gluttony, yeah you really don't want that, bad security problem
[05:22] <madman_> ok, i reinstall this new version over debian
[05:22] <harry_> h3xis: compiling things is scary.....
[05:22] <Pelo> UzzaDead, it's just a new name , some copyright thing
[05:22] <Flannel> steev: Repositories are effectively frozen once release.  So it won't be in Feisty.  Gutsy is the next version, so it'll be in that.
[05:22] <madman_> installation process was amazing
[05:22] <h3xis> harry_ no it isnt
[05:22] <gluttony> bruenig: ah. can i start ubuntu in terminal mode?
[05:22] <UzzaDead> i think im going to be replacing windows with this kubuntu :D
[05:22] <madman_> then this import feature
[05:22] <h3xis> madman_ what a terrible decision XD
[05:22] <craigbass1976> !video
[05:22] <ubotu> Ubuntu 7.04 installs multimedia codecs automatically. For older versions of Ubuntu, or if you can't use the automatic installer, see https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - For multimedia applications, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultimediaApplications
[05:22] <bruenig> gluttony, you mean like what you see when you do ctrl + alt + f1
[05:22] <madman_> now my import of these im's seem to be picked up by ubuntu
[05:22] <steev> flannel: gotcha. i never knew they froze them...interesting. Yet another reason to be excited for Gutsy...fiesty is really, really good, but there are still those one or two things...
[05:22] <madman_> now thats trippy as hell
[05:22] <gluttony> bruenig: yes.
[05:23] <harry_> h3xis: Then again, i used to be afraid of the command line, so I guess it's only a matter of time.
[05:23] <UzzaDead> when is gutsy due?
[05:23] <h3xis> harry_ it's just ./configure; make; sudo make install provided that it doesnt give you any errors
[05:23] <madman_> im a bsd guy and im absolutely flored with feisty fawn
[05:23] <Flannel> UzzaDead: Gutsy will be 7.10, so itll be released in October (10)
[05:23] <Pelo> UzzaDead,  october
[05:23] <UzzaDead> harry_, in russia the command line fears you
[05:23] <bruenig> gluttony, you could uninstall gdm, or do chmod -x /etc/init.d/gdm to make sure it doesn't execute
[05:23] <UzzaDead> sweet
[05:23] <Fivetwentysix> Alright i'm giving up on installing kde
[05:23] <Fivetwentysix> :-)

[05:24] <Pelo> Fivetwentysix,   a menu item in system > prefs

[05:25] <UzzaDead> we may have some answer
[05:25] <jacobnix> Pelo: ok
[05:25] <Pelo> damned, he picked me
[05:25] <UzzaDead> im glad my wireless worked right out of the box
[05:25] <madman_> sigh
[05:26] <Pelo> madman_,  you should bo back to window before you overdose on fiesty
[05:26] <madman_> ?
[05:26] <UzzaDead> you dont have to go to a methadone clinic or VD clinic for feisty overdoses right?
[05:27] <Pelo> UzzaDead,  a walk in the park usualy takes care of it
[05:27] <gluttony> bruenig: ok, last for now. how do i make the terminals in ctrl alt f1 - f6 log me in instead of me loging into all of them
[05:27] <Frogzoo> gluttony: evolution is good - the pgp support is excellent
[05:27] <UzzaDead> i dont have a park :(
[05:27] <PurpZeY> Is there a way to mute the sounds upon login? If so, would muting the system before a shutdown handle this or is there a specific preference?
[05:27] <jacobnix> i have a linux ubuntu feisty installed (GNOME 2.18) but i was installing some KDE applications and libs , my question is...someone knows what application allows add my kde applications in a GNOME menu
[05:28] <santhony12441> How do I set my desktop to automatically hibernate?
[05:28] <Yuno> h3xis: this is what i got
[05:28] <steev> jacobnix: they should just add themselves when you isntall them
[05:28] <Yuno> Detected version of X does not have a matching 'x720' directory
[05:28] <Yuno> You may override the detected version using the following syntax:
[05:28] <Flannel> gluttony: You don't.  That's... silly.  You imght look into screen.  Which will let you do sort of the same thing.
[05:28] <madman_> anyone try to get sedcond life to load?
[05:28] <gluttony> Flannel: why is that silly?
[05:28] <Frogzoo> jacobnix: sys -> prefs -> main menu
[05:28] <diabolix> how do i install a gnome applet as user?
[05:28] <Flannel> gluttony: because automatically logging in... well, do you want to let random people delete your files?
[05:28] <h3xis> Yuno do you have an ati card?
[05:29] <Yuno> yes
[05:29] <gluttony> Flannel: but im logging in through the gui, then ctrl alt to the terminals
[05:29] <Pelo> diabolix,  you don'T you need sudo
[05:29] <Yuno> its ati radeon x1300
[05:29] <madman_> 64 bit or 32 bit..  cant get second life to  run
[05:29] <diabolix> Pelo, i want to put it in my home directory.
[05:29] <Flannel> gluttony: Theyre all separate things.  each tty is an entirely separate entity
[05:29] <madman_> under feisty fawn
[05:29] <gluttony> Flannel: ok
[05:30] <madman_> anyone have a clue
[05:30] <madman_> ?
[05:30] <UzzaDead> i want linux on my xbox 360
[05:30] <diabolix> you should be capable of installing everything in you're home directory...
[05:30] <linuxnub> hihi can someone help me to make a symlink to /dev/dvd plz
[05:30] <Pelo> diabolix,  are you new to linux ?
[05:30] <diabolix> Pelo, nope.
[05:30] <h3xis> Yuno i'm looking
[05:30] <SpeakerMania> I can't view my Windows drive through Ubuntu. I have Edgy
[05:31] <Yuno> k thanks ^-^
[05:31] <madman_> will secondlife run under a 64bit version of ubuntu?
[05:31] <UzzaDead> im new but old, i used to compile gentoo and my own kernels and everything but forgot most of it :(
[05:31] <madman_> I bet money no one here has a clue
[05:31] <gluttony> well, thanks to everyone who answered my q's. im out
[05:31] <UzzaDead> i'd bet that it wont madman_
[05:31] <Pelo> diabolix, ok just checking because your question soundedvery strange to me,    run sudo to install stuff,  any user with access should be able to use it I think
[05:31] <PurpZeY> If I shutdown with the volume muted, will Ubuntu still play the system sounds when I boot up?
[05:31] <madman_> fine
[05:31] <linuxnub> my cdrom seems to be unnaccessable due to missing symlink in fiesty
[05:31] <madman_> i tried it under a 32 bit version
[05:31] <Pollifax> hi
[05:31] <madman_> what libraries need to be installed
[05:31] <madman_> googled this crap
[05:32] <madman_> found 3 that dont exist
[05:32] <diabolix> Pelo, I don't want to install a deb package, i want to put an applet in my home...
[05:32] <UzzaDead> i found the 32bit generally more compatible than 64bit in some aspects but i have no experience with second life
[05:32] <diabolix> Pelo, i've installed compilers in my home.. this should be easy.. but i'm having trouble...
[05:32] <h3xis> Yuno try X_VERSION=x710 sudo ./ati*
[05:32] <madman_> yeah... true that 32bit more compatible with everything
[05:32] <SpeakerMania>  I can't view my Windows drive through Ubuntu. I have Edgy. Can anyone help?
[05:32] <gluttony> wait, apparetly apt-get cant find finch
[05:32] <kandrews> Hi, can anybody tell me where the console configuration files are? My caps lock key doesn't work on startup in the consoles but does work once a rerun 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup', however, that is getting tedious. Thanks!
[05:32] <UzzaDead> i used to think linux was out to kill me until i started to understand more of it
[05:33] <madman_> second  life and ubuntu help me out
[05:33] <Pelo> diabolix,  you know more about his then I do , I've only beenusing ubuntu for 9 months
[05:33] <UzzaDead> SpeakerMania, one sec
[05:33] <madman_> second  life and ubuntu help me out
[05:33] <madman_> please
[05:33] <Flannel> madman_: second life only has a 32bit linux client.   You'dneed to run it in a chroot
[05:33] <ajmorris_> if im in gnome using KDE app, does it use gnome proxy settings or kde's?
[05:33] <Flannel> martin91: and please stop repeating so quickly.
[05:33] <FunnyLookinHat> SpeakerMania, does it show up in your devices at all?
[05:33] <madman_> new feisty fawn is a pain in the ass
[05:33] <SpeakerMania> No.
[05:33] <Pelo> madman_, check the forum
[05:33] <madman_> I know flannel
[05:33] <Yuno> YES
[05:33] <gluttony> bruenig: i cant install finch
[05:34] <FunnyLookinHat> SpeakerMania, Try going to Places - Computer - Filesystem - Media
[05:34] <Yuno> THANK YOU IT WORKED
[05:34] <SpeakerMania> Crap, I have to chat with a Quest person, be back in a little
[05:34] <h3xis> Yuno :p
[05:34] <UzzaDead> its probably not in his fstab or something
[05:34] <bruenig> gluttony, yes I know, ubuntu is a bit behind in its pidgin situation or they are intentionally behind waiting for gutsy
[05:34] <gluttony> dang
[05:34] <h3xis> Yuno when the dialog pops up it will ask if you want to generate packages or just install the modules. tell it to just install the modules. do NOT generate the ubuntu packages
[05:34] <gluttony> know anyother i.m. bruenig?
[05:35] <madman_> I want to pull my hair out im used to bsd
[05:35] <diabolix> bruenig, ubuntu doesn't update needlessly between releases.
[05:35] <FunnyLookinHat> SpeakerMania, sounds good
[05:35] <bruenig> no I would just compile
[05:35] <steev> bruenig: flannel told me repos get frozen at launch. pidgin wasn't availabile till after fiesty, so it'll be in gutsy
[05:35] <Pelo> ajmorris_,  gnome and kde are just interfaces, the settings they control are the same
[05:35] <rukuartic> Is there anything in linux like 'start service' for RedHat? I'm curious :P
[05:35] <Pelo> moreor less
[05:35] <luckyaba13> my webcam is showing a blue picture. anyway to adjust it?
[05:35] <bruenig> diabolix, yes that is what I mean, intentionally behind was the best way I could think of putting it
[05:35] <Yuno> definitly saving this for future reference
[05:35] <gluttony> bruenig: compile?
[05:35] <bruenig> gluttony, get the source code and compile away
[05:35] <UzzaDead> SpeakerMania, try this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions/ThirdPartyNTFS3G
[05:35] <Pelo> rukuartic, menu > system > prefs > sessions ? is that what you want ?
[05:35] <kandrews> gluttony: try centericq if you are looking for a command line messenger similar to finch.
[05:36] <h3xis> rukuartic you do it by running /etc/init.d/<service name> start|stop|restart
[05:36] <ajmorris_> Pelo, kk tks
[05:36] <JimM> Hey everyone, quick question. Is the Server version of Ubuntu 7.04 just the desktop with the Server tools installed?
[05:36] <bhuey_> Hello, I'm having dm-linear Device look up failed messages all over the place with my custom kernel. I have raid enabled and the device manager driver compiled in.
[05:36] <gluttony> kandrews: is that only for irc? or does it do aim?
[05:36] <diabolix> i don't know if i should be happy or upset that people are using linux and not knowing what it means to compile something...
[05:36] <bhuey_> Anybody know what's going on with that ?
[05:36] <NemesisD> anyone have any experience with funambol? im trying to get contacts between my blackberry and a local installation of SugarCRM
[05:36] <UzzaDead> SpeakerMania, did you get my message?
[05:36] <Pollifax> i have a graphics/video related question if anyone can help
[05:37] <kandrews> gluttony: it does most of the ones that pidgin does. I used it for msn, myself
[05:37] <UzzaDead> Pollifax,  ask away
[05:37] <Pelo> diabolix, I just know enough to compile apps I need,  and I donT' compile to my home folder I just trst the commands to do what they do and I'm happywith it
[05:37] <SpeakerMania> What message? I'm 3 in line for talking to Quest about my bhigh speed problem.
[05:37] <SpeakerMania> bbs
[05:37] <bimberi> JimM: no, there's no gui but it has a selection of server related packages (samba, mysql, apache ....) instead
[05:37] <DanaG> I have pidgin in Fiesty -- however, the way I did it is EXTREMELY hackish:
[05:37] <gluttony> kandrews: cool thanks
[05:37] <diabolix> Pelo, i wasn't refering to you specifically.. i was commenting on what someone said before.
[05:37] <JimM> Bimberi, on the default install would I be able to install either KDE or Gnome along with X fairly easily?
[05:38] <UzzaDead> SpeakerMania, try this for your drives problem: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions/ThirdPartyNTFS3G
[05:38] <Pollifax> if i try to use an emulator, or other application full screen, my video is distorted - like the V-hold on an old television
[05:38] <kandrews> gluttony: no problem
[05:38] <diabolix> Pelo, if you know what sudo is you can't be clueless.
[05:38] <FunnyLookinHat> diabolix, it's GREAT that people can finally use linux without having to compile...  make's it user-friendly    :-D
[05:38] <bimberi> JimM: sure.  you would install [k] ubuntu-desktop
[05:38] <jacobnix> Frogzoo thanks, but someone i dont remember who ....someone post that exists an application to add KDE applications in Gnome MENU
[05:38] <DanaG> Download the deb, install with dpkg --force-depends-version -i pidgin*.deb, then edit /var/lib/dpkg/status to remove everthing that references it.
[05:38] <bhuey_> This was a big fiesty upgrade
[05:38] <JimM> Bimberi, thanks for the help. I appreciate it :).
[05:38] <jacobnix> for example
[05:38] <DanaG> er, everything about, not everything that references.
[05:38] <bimberi> JimM: np :)
[05:39] <jacobnix> i have installed Kate
[05:39] <h3xis> Yuno dont forget to edit your xorg.conf when youve installed them
[05:39] <Gurpartap> Whats good to download a audio file via rtsp protocol? :)
[05:39] <Gurpartap> way*
[05:39] <jacobnix> but in sys-pref-mainmenu ....doesnt no appear kate to add in gnome menu
[05:39] <Pollifax> any takers?
[05:39] <Pelo> jacobnix,  you add it
[05:39] <oldude67_> why am i hearing people downloading kernel 2.6.21?
[05:40] <scamboy> helo everyone...
[05:40] <h3xis> oldude67_ because it's current?
[05:40] <DanaG> dynticks, for one.
[05:40] <Pelo> oldude67_,  the new thing, the in thing , the now thing ,
[05:40] <Flannel> oldude67_: because people are uner the assumption that bigger version numbers are always better
[05:40] <Pollifax> i want to pop your kernel
[05:40] <oldude67_> how would i do that?
[05:40] <Pelo> Pollifax,  just ask the question
[05:40] <rukuartic> h3xis: I know... its just much cooler to do start-service /whatever/
[05:40] <Fivetwentysix> I clicked on themes and got an error
[05:40] <Pollifax> i did already
[05:40] <Fivetwentysix> Unable to start the settings manager 'gnome-settings-daemon'.
[05:40] <Fivetwentysix> Without the GNOME settings manager running, some preferences may not take effect. This could indicate a problem with Bonobo, or a non-GNOME (e.g. KDE) settings manager may already be active and conflicting with the GNOME settings manager.
[05:40] <rukuartic> Pelo: Ty by the way :P
[05:40] <scamboy> QUESTION: Does ubuntu falls under the Free & Open Source Software or the other way round???
[05:41] <Flannel> scamboy: Yes.  Ubuntu is FOSS
[05:41] <Pelo> rukuartic, too late,  statled gratitude is not appreciated
[05:41] <Pollifax> i need to fine tune my video, but this operating system is organized different than what im used to
[05:41] <SpeakerMania> I'm next, wish me luck
[05:41] <rukuartic> =P
[05:41] <Pollifax> if i run something fullscreen its distorted
[05:41] <scamboy> flannel: can you refer me to any website pls?
[05:41] <h3xis> rukuartic you cant do that in ubuntu
[05:41] <Flannel> scamboy: a website for what?
[05:41] <scamboy> flannel: that says ubuntu is foss
[05:42] <rukuartic> k31th: perhaps some script... !#/bin/bash / /etc/init.d/$1 start
[05:42] <Pelo> Pollifax,  you'll need to get a lot more specific then that
[05:42] <jacobnix> Pelo: but when i installed an application from synaptic, not only kate it is installed , more kde applications dependencies were installed
[05:42] <Flannel> scamboy: ubuntu.com
[05:42] <jacobnix> and i donkt know which applications
[05:42] <Pollifax> well, ive got an ATI graphics card, got the driver for it installed
[05:42] <scamboy> flannel: nope..it only say that ubuntu comes with foss
[05:42] <_hp_> anyone sucessfully got dual display working on a macbook?
[05:42] <Pollifax> cant tell shit from shit to see if i have done it correctly
[05:43] <Pelo> jacobnix,  dependencies dont, appear in the menues, only the applications,   most dependencies are librairies and stuff like that
[05:43] <jacobnix> pelo: i refered to applications like kate , quanta, kfilereplace
[05:43] <Pelo> Pollifax, did you use the restricted driver item in   menu >`system > admin ?
[05:43] <jacobnix> pelo som kde apps there are in gnome menu
[05:44] <Pelo> jacobnix, if they are not in the menu you add then to the menu,  you need to remember what you installed to do that
[05:44] <Pelo> jacobnix, then add the others
[05:44] <Pollifax> "your hardware does not need restricted drivers"
[05:44] <X-Martin> anyone here can help me mounting Windows shared-folder to Ubuntu ?

[05:45] <Sergo> hello, what bit torrents client is good
[05:45] <Flannel> scamboy: What?  Ubuntu is nothing but a conglomeration of FOSS software.  I don't understand what you're asking specifically
[05:45] <Sergo> =]

[05:46] <Yuno> yes
[05:46] <Pollifax> the distortion looks like its trying to draw in an unsupported resolution
[05:46] <Yuno> hmm
[05:46] <ahp_duncan> Quick question, in xchat, how can I see the userlist?
[05:47] <jacobnix> pelo: yes....now changing the idea , about kickoff kde menu ,.....can i installed kde right now to see the new kde menu?

[05:47] <Pollifax> the colors are ok, its bands
[05:47] <Pollifax> i have tried pelo
[05:47] <Yuno> it has a few client in it

[05:49] <meuhlol> hello all
[05:49] <Pelo> Jarrod,  plug it in it should get mounted to your desktop
[05:49] <GTroy_> !modules
[05:49] <ubotu> To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u
[05:49] <ahp_duncan> Jarrod, I don't think its crushed to the right
[05:49] <majnoon> anyone else having trouble burning cdroms after feisty upgrade ???
[05:49] <Pollifax> xorg.cong or xorg.conf
[05:49] <FunnyLookinHat> X-Martin, it can be a bit finnicky....   but the best way to do it is to have the computer running windows be set to a static IP and then go to Places - Connect to Server - and then choose "Windows Share" as the server type and fill in the info
[05:50] <meuhlol> someone can help me with firefox & midi files? when im on one web page with midi music in bg, like <bgsound src=urltomidi.mid> firefox asks me for plugin, & not find any.

[06:01] <Greatmetal> Yeah :)
[06:02] <Pelo> Fivetwentysix,   open up synaptic,   use the search option and look up packages relating to php
[06:02] <Greatmetal> I mean just who in their right mind would buy a Zune
[06:02] <dru> meuhlol: i dont get what u mean tho by virtual machine .. how do i install it?
[06:02] <FunnyLookinHat> Greatmetal, good question...  I don't know who   :)
[06:02] <dru> i would ... better resolution and screen size than ipod .... but lets stick on topic to ubuntu
[06:02] <vbabiy> what software can I use to print to PDF
[06:02] <Pelo> Greatmetal,  FunnyLookinHat  this is a support channel not a bashing one
[06:03] <Flannel> vbabiy: what are you trying to print
[06:03] <Frogzoo> vbabiy: install a PDF print driver
[06:03] <vbabiy> from firefox
[06:03] <DanaG> Oh yeah, I finally got qemu / KVM to get an IP address and networking,
[06:03] <FunnyLookinHat> Pelo, chill dude, my one off-topic comment is hardly more than your little comments about enjoying your PM-blocker script.
[06:03] <Greatmetal> I guess. dru did you try mounting your Zune manually?
[06:03] <DanaG> but now the VM doesn't have a route to the outside network.
[06:03] <meuhlol> dru: http://www.virtualbox.org/
[06:03] <dru> wouldnt know how
[06:03] <vbabiy> Frogzoo: where do i get one
[06:03] <dru> i tryed asking in the chat
[06:03] <kandrews> Hi, which init script would I edit if I wanted to run a command at boot?
[06:03] <DanaG> Oddly, my iAudio6 still shows up as Mass Storage even in MTP mode.
[06:04] <dru> all i got was ususb commands
[06:04] <dru> and that diddnt help
[06:04] <bimberi> kandrews: /etc/rc.local (if it's to be run as root)
[06:04] <kandrews> bimberi: thanks!
[06:04] <bimberi> kandrews: np
[06:04] <meuhlol> dru
[06:04] <meuhlol> it have xD
[06:05] <dru> meuhlol: yes?
[06:05] <meuhlol> you just need to configure it, like "network card connected"
[06:05] <meuhlol> in VM
[06:05] <camonz> where are downlaoded apt-get packages stored?
[06:05] <meuhlol> i use it xD
[06:05] <ori> is there a way to get aspire built in Ali webcams to work on ubuntu?
[06:05] <vbabiy> is there a package that will install a PDF Printer
[06:05] <bimberi> camonz: /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:05] <crdlb> Greatmetal: the zune is MTP; it doesn't mount at all :)
[06:05] <camonz> bimberi: thanks!, i was also wondering how to edit CFLAGS so i can compile from source
[06:05] <Flannel> vbabiy: install cups-pdf
[06:05] <FunnyLookinHat> vbabiy, as far as I know there isn't....  but a lot of programs can save in PDF format (such as OpenOffice and Gimp)
[06:06] <vbabiy> thanks Flannel
[06:06] <FunnyLookinHat> vbabiy, sorry ignore my response, Flannel knows   : )
[06:06] <bimberi> camonz: whoa, a bit of a leap for me that one.  dunno sorry
[06:06] <bimberi> !compile | camonz
[06:06] <ubotu> camonz: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[06:07] <camonz> thanks!
[06:07] <Flannel> vbabiy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PDFPrinting

[06:07] <vbabiy> thanks Flannel
[06:08] <homanj> i want to create a vmware image of windows xp, is there a way besides installing windows and using vmware converter?
[06:10] <Jack31> Is there a timidity front end for linux?
[06:10] <bimberi> homanj: you can create an image by installing XP using vmware-server
[06:11] <homanj> bimberi: thanks.
[06:12] <bimberi> homanj: yw.  btw, vmware-server is available in feisty-commercial
[06:12] <homanj> bimberi: ah, cool. thanks again
[06:12] <bimberi> homanj:  np :)
[06:13] <Sergo> use kubuntu
[06:13] <Sergo> the ubuntu and gtk are slow
[06:13] <Sergo> :))
[06:13] <homanj> bimberi: how do i enable commercial?
[06:15] <homanj> bimberi: nvm, i found it.
[06:15] <cables> Is there any way, in Deluge, to set which files I want to download? I unchecked the ones I don't in the Files tab, ut it still seems to be downloading them.
[06:15] <bimberi> homanj: it might be available via Applications -> Add/Remove...
[06:15] <DanaG> Any idea on the routing for Qemu?
[06:15] <DanaG> I'm using VDE.
[06:15] <pirate-king> i installed xmms how do I get it to play mp3's
[06:15] <bimberi> homanj: cool, otherwise I can give you the sources.list line
[06:15] <DanaG> Oh yeah, and where was that alsa-hg howto?
[06:16] <homanj> bimberi: a quick search got me the sources.lost line
[06:16] <homanj> bimberi: at least i think so.
[06:16] <homanj> bimberi: and you were right, server is in add/remove apps
[06:16] <bimberi> homanj: great, thanks for confirming
[06:16] <homanj> bimberi: np.
[06:16] <homanj> bimberi: now we both know
[06:17] <bimberi> :)
[06:17] <linuxnub> hello can someone help me to mount my dvd drive plz
[06:18] <Jack31> Is there a gui for timidity
[06:18] <homanj> bimberi: only problem, is that vmware player and vmware server conflict. cannot be installed at the same time.
[06:20] <kraut> moin
[06:20] <bimberi> homanj: ah, ok :|
[06:20] <SquirreL> quick question. if I do a complete reinstall, will the installer keep my usr files?
[06:21] <Flannel> SquirreL: /usr? or /home?
[06:21] <homanj> bimberi: though, i can create the image with server. and then use it with player. i dont necessarily need both installed at the same time.
[06:21] <SquirreL> "/home" sorry
[06:21] <homanj> bimberi: am i correct
[06:21] <Flannel> SquirreL: do you have /home on it's own partition?
[06:22] <SquirreL> I have linux on it's own partition, but not home itself
[06:22] <Flannel> SquirreL: then no.  If you make /home it's own partition, you'll reinstall and mount (and not format) home, but currently your stuff will get overwritten
[06:22] <lamalex> allo, I need help burning an iso from the command line
[06:23] <lamalex> I can't get the md5sum to check out
[06:23] <insomniac190> I am trying to change the mac address for my network card...can someone tell me if what i am doing would work?
[06:23] <SquirreL> Flannel: ok thanks, I guess I will just back it up before then overright again. Thanks

[06:24] <phagg> i mean can you write to it without problems?
[06:24] <nomasteryoda> it works well enough.. you can install ntfs3g, but you still might lose data
[06:24] <phagg> bah
[06:24] <cyros> in the lastest version yea i believe u have to enable it im not sure though
[06:25] <phagg> ill have to test it out :D
[06:25] <yunno> is h3xis still here?
[06:25] <phagg> !cloning
[06:25] <ubotu> To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type  dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages , move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type  sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade  - See also !automate
[06:25] <lamalex> anyone know anything about command line burning isos?
[06:25] <h3xis> yunno yes
[06:25] <yunno> ok
[06:25] <yunno> well... now i have another problem
[06:25] <Punkunity> i need help with converting an AVI file to DVD format so i can burn it onto a dvdrw disk
[06:25] <Punkunity> anyone??
[06:26] <zcat[1] > Punkunity: devede is easiest, qdvdauthor does a better job but is rather complex.
[06:26] <gortba> Hi. I was wondering if anyone knew how to fix this error that I'm getting: Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
[06:26] <yunno> when i try to start ubuntu with the ATI card it gives me the x-server error and a V_BIOS error
[06:27] <Punkunity> zcat[1] , i have the author program and i have heard that devede is a crappy quality
[06:27] <Adremelech> can someone help me with my deb?
[06:27] <kandrews> Hi, I have a very odd problem. I can't use my caps locks key in the tty consoles until I run sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup (I don't need to change any options, I just need to run it) in a console. I tried running it in a virtual console but that didn't work. I also tried adding the command to the /etc/rc.local script and that didn't work either. It seems the command must be done in a console.
[06:27] <Punkunity> zcat[1] , what about tovid , i heard it is good?
[06:27] <zcat[1] > Punkunity: well, I made some vcd's using it and they came out pretty good. It's very easy to use.
[06:28] <zcat[1] > Punkunity: devede that is, I never tried todiv
[06:28] <Punkunity> hmm...i want to copy onto dvd tho
[06:28] <mirra> can someone point me to a guide or tutorial for installing two instances of mysql on the same computer??
[06:28] <Punkunity> oh ok, ill give it a try
[06:28] <Punkunity> thanks zcat[1]  ...again
[06:28] <homanj> hmm, is there a reason why the hal update is being kept back?
[06:28] <zcat[1] > worst case you make a coaster and have to learn a better tool :)
[06:29] <ironuckles> Hello, I am having a hard time trying to do a fresh install of Ubuntu 7.04.
[06:29] <insomniac190> If I added the line hwaddress ether :mac address: to my /etc/network/interfaces file, would that change my network card's mac address?
[06:29] <Ted_Nancy> Hi again... I'm trying this on gaim (now Pidgeon)
[06:29] <Ted_Nancy> Couldn't get a chat started in Mirc
[06:29] <Ted_Nancy> Anyone there?

[06:30] <yunno> h3xis: when i try to start ubuntu with the ATI card it gives me the x-server error and a V_BIOS error
[06:30] <pirate-king> I got 2 hard drives in my pc when I installed it saw both drives how come now that I installed xubuntu I can see the scsi drive?
[06:31] <bimberi> homanj: sorry I stepped away for a bit,  yes - in fact you can use server as a player.  I prefer it personally.
[06:31] <h3xis> yunno did you edit your xorg.conf?
[06:31] <Ted_Nancy> Awesome... sorry if I was spamming earlier people... I kept typing and not getting a response. Musta been Mirc.
[06:31] <yunno> *coughs* no
[06:31] <homanj> bimberi: ah, cool. nice
[06:31] <h3xis> yunno run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and go through that. when it asks you which driver you want to use say fglrx
[06:32] <kandrews> ironnuckles: do you check the md5sum of the install disc? You might have a bad ubuntu cd.
[06:32] <imbecile> I'm supposed to find my network interface.. how do i do this?
[06:33] <Ted_Nancy> New user, just installled xubuntu 7.04 on an old Compaq Armada. I've been trying to get the ethernet card going. It's PCMCIA (I think), a 3COM 3CCFEM556 B, the net says that its supported by this driver
[06:33] <Ted_Nancy> 3c574_cs driver
[06:34] <Ted_Nancy> I've tried "sudo modprobe 3c574_cs"
[06:34] <Ted_Nancy> ifup eth0
[06:34] <Ted_Nancy> to no effect

[06:36] <abarbaccia> hello all - im having some serious grub problems with mdadm but i don't have a raid array (although i do use LVM). this all happened when i upgraded to feisty
[06:36] <Ted_Nancy> If anyone can help me load this driver to get the network interface going that would be much appreciated... the forums have not yielded an answer as yet....
[06:36] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, what do you need to do with you network interface
[06:37] <Ted_Nancy> imbecile "sudo ifconfig" should show you the network interfaces that are working.
[06:37] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx: Im trying to see whats going on in my network with ettercap
[06:37] <mirra> can someone point me to a guide on how to install mysql twice on one machine????
[06:37] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, so you are sniffing?
[06:38] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx: someone is piggybacking on my wpa2 encrypted network... yes
[06:38] <^Ocean^> is there Java 6 for ubuntu yet ?
[06:38] <kandrews> ^Ocean^: yes
[06:39] <^Ocean^> were would i find the package ?  all i find when i do apt-cache search is 5
[06:39] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, try changin wpa2 password and dont use wireless to see whats going on in your network
[06:39] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, another good sniffers are ethereal and dsniff or sniffit
[06:39] <konam> hi
[06:39] <konam> someone knows how i can do a .deb package of a theme?
[06:39] <kandrews> Can anyone point me to some information on what console-setup actually does?
[06:40] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, if you try sniffing with wireless card, you may not get any answer, that happens to me
[06:40] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx:  I have wireshark.. basically i'm I'm trying arp cache poisoning on my network
[06:40] <erpo> How can I get a list of files in a particular package?
[06:41] <Fezzler> olo?
[06:41] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, so why or for what you need to find your network iface?
[06:41] <kandrews> konam: what theme do you want? I'm pretty good at installing those.

[06:42] <konam> kandrews I have one theme configuration, and i know some people package them (gtk-theme, gdm, icons, etc) into a deb package. how can i do one of those?
[06:42] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx:  to configure ettercap i go to "sniff" and it asks me to select an interface
[06:43] <Ted_Nancy> So why can't I bring it up by modprobing my dirver, then using ifup
[06:43] <Fivetwentysix> rar is free
[06:43] <Fivetwentysix> isnt it?
[06:43] <kandrews> konam: ah, I'm sorry I can't help you with packaging .deb files
[06:43] <myr> Fivetwentysix,  the package: yes
[06:43] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, so i guess you dont have a list of devices there?
[06:43] <nj786> crdlb, can you help me?
[06:43] <konam> kandrews ok
[06:44] <nj786>  i downloaded a .rar file andi  want to know how to extract it
[06:44] <Fivetwentysix> is rar compression and decompression methods quicker than zip and tar?
[06:44] <crdlb> nj786: just install the unrar package from multiverse
[06:44] <nj786> crdlb, how do i do that?
[06:44] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, you are using ettercap-gtk right?
[06:44] <myr> nj786, in a terminal type: sudo aptitude install rar
[06:44] <navets> hey can anyone here help me out with some virtual software
[06:44] <crdlb> unrar
[06:44] <crdlb> !info unrar
[06:44] <ubotu> unrar: Unarchiver for .rar files (non-free version). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1:3.7.3-1 (feisty), package size 94 kB, installed size 228 kB
[06:45] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx:  I only have one system up at the moment.. i want to get it ready for next time the log on.. yes ettercap-gtk
[06:45] <SpeakerMania> Idiots from Quest...
[06:45] <nj786> crdlb, what do i do now its done
[06:45] <crdlb> nj786: you installed unrar?
[06:46] <nj786> yesi  typed it in terminal
[06:46] <crdlb> nj786: did you install rar or unrar?
[06:46] <navets> im trying to install mac os X tiger with with virtual software. I want to know if you can open a .dmg file as a .iso file
[06:46] <nj786> crdlb, i have no idea
[06:46] <crdlb> nj786: look at what you ran
[06:46] <nj786> crdlb, all i did was type w.e u told me to on terminal
[06:46] <crdlb> I didn't tell you that
[06:47] <nj786> im sorry
 nj786, in a terminal type: sudo aptitude install rar
[06:47] <nj786> he told me that
[06:47] <crdlb> then you need to: sudo apt-get install unrar
[06:47] <myr> unrar isnt free
[06:47] <mobutu> isnt there a package named unrar-free ?
[06:47] <nj786> myr...where can i find this unrar?
[06:47] <crdlb> but it's not as good
[06:48] <nj786> i need to uninstall it
[06:48] <nj786> myr?
[06:48] <kandrews> hey, is there a way to scroll up in a console?
[06:48] <nj786> myr,it isnt free?
[06:48] <mobutu> you could download the real rar source and make a package with checkinstall, then install it
[06:48] <mobutu> what features is unrar-free missing ?
[06:48] <crdlb> nj786: free as in freedom, not as in price
[06:48] <myr> nj786, restart nautilus by typing nautilus -q
[06:48] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, i now see, it displays invalid interface right?
[06:49] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx:  yes
[06:49] <crdlb> mobutu: support for the latest version of rar I believe
[06:49] <myr> nj786, then you will be able to extract the file by right clicking on it an selecting extract here
[06:49] <nj786> myr, it doesnt work like that
[06:49] <myr> rar is free afaik
[06:49] <linuxnub> hey anyone know how to make a symlink to /dev/dvd for the cdrom drive?
[06:49] <ColdBeer> Hey does anyone ever use postfix in here?
[06:49] <nj786> myr, what do i do
[06:49] <crdlb> rar is in multiverse
[06:49] <crdlb> which implies it isn't
[06:50] <sileni> hello how do i set 777 with chmod to all the files in a directory
[06:50] <sileni> in ubuntu dapper ><
[06:50] <bulmer> why would one even use rar? isnt that more of a windows archiving than nix kind?
[06:50] <RAOF> sileni: "chmod 777 *" should do it.
[06:50] <melon> does anybody have a link (or a solution) to how i'd recover ubuntu after i accidentally partitioned the hd?
[06:50] <feross> ColdBeer: I use postfix, what's your question?
[06:50] <myr> nj786, restart nautilus by typing nautilus -q
[06:50] <RAOF> bulmer: It's warez kiddies archiving :)
[06:50] <crdlb> you have to be able to open them :)
[06:50] <nj786> myr, into terminal?
[06:51] <myr> nj786, yes
[06:51] <RAOF> sileni: If you're not the owner of the files, you'll need root privs, which you can get with "sudo chmod 777 *"
[06:51] <mobutu> where i d0wnload warez ?
[06:51] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, trying to configure it but the same error.. try using dsniff or sniffit
[06:51] <crdlb> mobutu: not here :)
[06:51] <myr> i guess rar isnt free :[
[06:51] <myr> nj786, then you will be able to extract the file by right clicking on it an selecting extract here
[06:51] <nj786> myr, now what
[06:52] <insomniac190> what are these programs httpcachecleaner and knotify...ubuntu seems to always launch them
[06:52] <ColdBeer> can i create many diferent email accounts with it?
[06:52] <ColdBeer> do i need a static ip?
[06:52] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx:  I'm trying to find the launcher for them.. do I launch it via terminal?
[06:52] <jacobnix> /gnome
[06:53] <feross> ColdBeer: yes you can create different email accounts with it, no you don't need a static IP but it is much better if you do.
[06:53] <crdlb> insomniac190: no idea but they may know in #kubuntu
[06:53] <nj786> myr is that it?
[06:53] <myr> yea
[06:53] <myr> nj786, then you will be able to extract the file by right clicking on it an selecting extract here
[06:53] <myr> nj786, it extracts it to a folder
[06:53] <ColdBeer> feross so can i use dyndns
[06:53] <insomniac190> !info httpcachecleaner
[06:53] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, for sniffit and dsniif?
[06:53] <ubotu> Package httpcachecleaner does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[06:54] <insomniac190> !knotify
[06:54] <crdlb> !find httpcachecleaner
[06:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about knotify - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:54] <ubotu> Package/file httpcachecleaner does not exist in feisty
[06:54] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx:  yes
[06:54] <feross> ColdBeer: yes, I'll save you some trouble.. MX records and CNAME records cannot mix.
[06:55] <ColdBeer> like so i have dybnmaic dns, and my ip is setup so that its  maxhome.homeip.org
[06:55] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx: sorry man i'm pretty new to all of this.. I just want to catch this guy
[06:55] <insomniac190> ehh its no big deal...just opens up on my application toolbar as "launching knotify"
[06:55] <myr> i like rar because it can create .rar unlike unrar
[06:55] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, for sniffit try: sudo sniffit and it will show you the help
[06:55] <ColdBeer> feross whats a mx record?
[06:55] <ColdBeer> like tree.forest.com, forest would be the mx?
[06:56] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx: ok will give it a try
[06:56] <feross> ColdBeer: no, the MX is a record that points to your email server in your domain.
[06:56] <^Ocean^> whats the command too switch your java enviroment ?
[06:57] <wlx> ^Ocean^, you mean update-alternative?
[06:57] <ColdBeer> how do i access that record?
[06:57] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, and when you install dsniff it also istall other packages try: dsniff --help, msgsnarf --help, mailsnarf --help, urlsnarff --help, filesnarf --help
[06:58] <^Ocean^> wlx: maybe ?
[06:58] <feross> ColdBeer: you put it in your DNS server.
[06:58] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, macof --help, dnsspoof --help, sshmitm --help and i think that is about it
[06:58] <ColdBeer> feross: whats a cname,
[06:59] <ColdBeer> so can i use a free dynamic dns service to host my own email?
[06:59] <Oli``> sure
[06:59] <zcat[1] > ColdBeer: a cname is like an alias; www.forest.com points to tree.forest.com. And A record says what the IP address is.. tree.forest.com is <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:59] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, if you try dsniff -w > file.txt it will listen passwords on the default interface and will send them to file.txt
[07:00] <clinton> hallo! I seem to be having a bit of an issue -- I have  GeForce4MX4000, running 7.03, and I believe the nVidia driver is loaded, but I can't get beyond 1024x768x50hz
[07:00] <linuxnub> can anyone plz help me to get my dvd drive to work?
[07:00] <^Ocean^> wlx: how would i do it with update-alternatives ?
[07:00] <RAOF> clinton: You mean, you can't get any higher refresh rate?  That's a deliberate (but _stupid_) feature of the nvidia drivers.
[07:00] <Oli``> clinton: does the nvidia logo come up when X starts?
[07:00] <zcat[1] > ColdBeer: and in this case if you set up an MX for forest.com domain, you would want it to reference tree.forest.com, not www.forest.com
[07:00] <clinton> RAOF: I can't get a higher resolution either
[07:01] <linuxnub> can anyone plz help me to get my dvd drive to work?
[07:01] <RAOF> clinton: They mis-report the refresh rate (and use it for TwinView - your first monitor is 50hz, second is 51Hz, etc)
[07:01] <clinton> Oli``: I haven't seen, I'm on my first reboot after Ubuntu told me to :P
[07:01] <ColdBeer> zcat yes
[07:01] <kandrews> does anyone here know how to page up inside of a terminal?
[07:01] <^Ocean^> whats the command too change your Java Enviroment ?
[07:01] <rredd4> using gtkpod, where can I find mp4v2 library to load m4a files?
[07:01] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx: you are awesome.. I'm not entirely sure what i'm doing though
[07:01] <feross> ColdBeer: yes you can use dydns service to host your own email but it's not simple at all, you should read some howto for it.
[07:01] <clinton> RAOF: It's being reported in the system --> preferences --> screen resolution panel, is there a different place to configure the nvidia driver properly?
[07:01] <VoX> kandrews: shift-pgup
[07:02] <RAOF> clinton: Well, running "nvidia-settigns" from a terminal will allow you to change the refresh rate, yes.
[07:02] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx:  thats why i tried ettercap cuz of the gui
[07:02] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, hahaha it is just practica and follow manuals and help. try using : man dsniff or any other command and will show more help
[07:02] <clinton> RAOF: well, that explains why I'm not dying of flicker with a 50hz refresh rate, becasue it's not really 50hz :P
[07:02] <Ted_Nancy> Hey, I found a solution to my ethernet card problem, but i don't understand it. Hopefully someone can help me.
[07:03] <ColdBeer> feross, when i mean host i mean like user1 to user2 ect... ect.. whatever i like<EMAIL_ADDRESS>  ?
[07:03] <clinton> RAOF: any idea why I can't seem to get above 1024x768?
[07:03] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, try using ethereal it also has a gui, i rather use the command line
[07:03] <Ted_Nancy> I have this same card, and only need the ethernet to work, not the modem too.
[07:03] <RAOF> clinton: Yup, indeed.  How did you install the drivers?
[07:03] <Ted_Nancy> http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-pcmcia/2007-February/004391.html
[07:03] <Ted_Nancy> The command is  cp /etc/pcmcia/cis/3CXEM556.dat /lib/firmware/3CXEM556.cis
[07:04] <Ted_Nancy> but I don't have a "cis" directory there
[07:04] <clinton> RAOF: I just installed my system about an hour ago, this is my first foray into graphical linux :P I was poking around the system preferences, and went to system --> preferences --> desktop effects
[07:04] <Ted_Nancy> oops... sorry wrong link.
[07:04] <Ted_Nancy> https://bugs.launchpad.net/fedora/+bug/52510
[07:04] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx:  ethereal is now called wireshark right?
[07:04] <Ted_Nancy> correct link
[07:04] <RAOF> clinton: Ah, and it fired up the "Restricted Manager", yes?
[07:05] <slicknick> any ideas how to turn this hfs+ formatted mac os x install dvd to boot in vmware ?'
[07:05] <clinton> RAOF: it told me to install the invidia driver, and gave me two buttons, "install" or "cancel." I clicked install, it asked me for my password, did the install in it's beautiful idiot proof manner, then told me to reboot and run desktop effects again.
[07:05] <RAOF> clinton: There was a bug in the pre-release version of Feisty (Ubuntu 7.04) where the restricted manager would incorrectly write the wrong resolutions to xorg.conf.
[07:05] <clinton> RAOF: after the reboot, it brought up the restricted driver manager, which says it's loaded and hunky dory.
[07:05] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, i dont know visit www.ethereal.com for more info about it, but i dont think it changed name
[07:06] <kandrews> VoX: thanks, but it isn't working for me in my terminal. It only works inside of my 'Terminal' application. Can you use it in you
[07:06] <RAOF> clinton: But if you're using the full release, I thought that was fixed.  However, it should be easy to fix.
[07:06] <zcat[1] > ColdBeer: if you don't have a static address I would suggest borrow a mailserver (gmail or something) and use fetchmail.. otherwise it's really complex and there's a good chance your mail will get lost or given to someone else..
[07:06] <kandrews> VoX: in your /dev/tty terminals?
[07:06] <RAOF> !resolution > clinton <--- First, check out the link in the private message from ubotu.
[07:07] <VoX> kandrews: yeah
[07:07] <zcat[1] > .. and besides I don't know how you'd set it up :)
[07:07] <bullgard4> Synaptic does not show me any hwmon package. But I have 30 files in my Ubuntu 7.04 containing a 'hwmon' string. What is the associated DEB program package?
[07:08] <Punkunity> I really need help installing a .tar.gz file, i forget how to , and I cant cd into the dir for some reason
[07:08] <zcat[1] > bullgard4: apt-cache search hwmon  ?
[07:08] <RAOF> bullgard4: dpkg to your rescue!  "dpkg -S _filename_" will list all packages containing that file.
[07:08] <Punkunity> anybody?
[07:09] <Punkunity> i have dowbnloaded tovid-0.30.tar.gz onto my desktop
[07:09] <Punkunity> and I cannot cd into the directory after I extract here to the desktop
[07:09] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx:  so i can do a mitm with just ethereal?
[07:09] <clinton> RAOF: okay, so the section I want is "You use the "nvidia" driver (Binary drivers)
[07:09] <kandrews> VoX: thanks, that is another thing I need to fix then.
[07:10] <feross> Punkunity: tar zxvf tovid...tar.gz   to extract
[07:10] <sah10_br> Does anyone know how to print in economic mode on Ubuntu Feisty?
[07:10] <zcat[1] > Punkunity: cd Desktop/tovid-0.30
[07:10] <djzn> hi... how do I install compiz themes in FEISTY?
[07:10] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, nope
[07:10] <Punkunity> n ow i just moved it into my home folder i am going to try it there, there is very poor explainations on how to do this on the net
[07:10] <Punkunity> ty zcat[1]
[07:10] <Punkunity> brb zcat[1]
[07:10] <zcat[1] > then probably ./configure
[07:11] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx:  what else do i need to do?
[07:11] <sah10_br> djzn: I think u can install emerald
[07:11] <Punkunity> ./configure and everything went well zcat[1]   ty again, i am going to write that down lol
[07:11] <RAOF> clinton: There should have been a suggestion to run the command "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" in that link, right?  That should fix your problem (when you select the right set of resolutions)
[07:11] <m_bison21> could anyone tell me if there is a way to lower the delay it takes for an autohide taskbar to come back? if so, i would greatly appreciate some help..
[07:11] <ubuntubeginz> djzn : maybe this will help.. http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-beryl-with-latest-nvidia-drivers-in-ubuntu-feisty-fawn.html
[07:11] <zcat[1] > Punkunity: cool, if no errors, the next step is 'make' and then 'make install' usually
[07:12] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, try changing your wpa key
[07:12] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, use capital letters and numbers if possible
[07:12] <m_bison21> well...i guess nobody knows.
[07:12] <m_bison21> oh well
[07:13] <m_bison21> or maybe i wasn't very clear..
[07:13] <ubuntubeginz> for a moment, i thought RoAkSoAx was being rude... wat kinda a nick is a imbecile... sigh...
[07:13] <m_bison21> by come back i of course mean...pop back up
[07:13] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, or instead of changing your wpa key to a hard one, try using a filter, can be mac filter or IP filter
[07:13] <RAOF> djzn: You don't, because Compiz themes don't exist.
[07:13] <sah10_br> How can I print in economic mode in Feisty?
[07:13] <djzn> so
[07:14] <djzn> this desktop effects things in FEISTY
[07:14] <clinton> RAOF: upon the edit of xorg.conf, do I need to reboot?
[07:14] <djzn> is it themable?
[07:14] <RAOF> djzn: The things labelled as "compiz themes" are actually for beryl before it was called beryl.
[07:14] <imbecile> ubuntubeginz:  It happens all the time
[07:14] <zcat[1] > djzn: yes, the same way the regular desktop is..
[07:14] <djzn> because the beryl themes, are bin files
[07:14] <RAOF> djzn: Yes, it uses your Gnome themes.  (Or KDE themes, if you are using kde-window-decorator)
[07:14] <djzn> these .bin packs
[07:14] <djzn> how do i install it?
[07:15] <djzn> .bin packs gotten from beryl-themes.org
[07:15] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx:  that doesnt help me catch whoever it is.. although I do have my suspicions
[07:15] <zcat[1] > djzn: I think you need to be using beryl to use those themes
[07:15] <m_bison21> so...how do i lower the delay time it takes for a taskbar that has been autohidden to pop back up when i move my mouse over it?
[07:15] <djzn> ok so what technology engine spins for Desktop Effects Ubuntu 7.04 preview
[07:16] <zcat[1] > beryl has it's own emerald theme manager (and it's own way of fetching themes from repositories)
[07:16] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, yeah it wont catch but at least you can filter those who are connected and find out who is he, but using a packet filter will tell you who is doing what
[07:16] <zcat[1] > djzn: the desktop effects stuff is compiz; beryl is a fork and quite a lot different now.
[07:16] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, or at least it will show which kind of packets is sending
[07:17] <djzn> so
[07:17] <djzn> the compiz thing
[07:17] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, other tool that you can use is tcpdump
[07:17] <sah10_br> Can't I print in Economic Mode?? Please, someone.. =/
[07:17] <djzn> cannot read these .bin themes
[07:17] <zcat[1] > djzn: so apt-get install beryl-manager seryl-settings emerald
[07:17] <pirate-king> I got 2 hard drives in my pc when I installed it saw both drives how come now that I installed xubuntu I can see the scsi drive?
[07:17] <m_bison21> for some reason terminal won't open...it just sits there for about 10-15 seconds trying to load...then it does nothing
[07:17] <m_bison21> what do i need to do to fix it?
[07:18] <djzn> ok zcat[1]  downloading now
[07:18] <pirate-king> I got 2 hard drives in my pc when I installed it saw both drives how come now that I installed xubuntu I can see the scsi drive?
[07:18] <Punkunity> it said it installed tovid but then it told me to get txt2tags and that is a .tgz file and I cant cd into that the same way zcat[1]
[07:18] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx:  thanks man.. i really dont know what i'm doing some guy told me i could catch him that way so I'm giving it a try
[07:18] <pirate-king> I got 2 hard drives in my pc when I installed it saw both drives how come now that I installed xubuntu I can find see the scsi drive?
[07:18] <insomniac190> does anyone use sbackup to backup their files?
[07:18] <Punkunity> after extracting by right clicking of course zcat[1]
[07:18] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, what is he doing exactly?
[07:19] <pirate-king> I got 2 hard drives in my pc when I installed it saw both drives how come now that I installed xubuntu I can"t find see the scsi drive?
[07:19] <Frogzoo> !anyone > insomniac190
[07:19] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx:  I dunno.. i just know he is on my private network
[07:19] <Frogzoo> pirate-king: one more time with feeling!
[07:19] <zcat[1] > Punkunity: cd ~/Desktop/wherever (I left off ~ last time 'cos you were already there.. now you're not.
[07:19] <m_bison21> i used to print gay porn pictures on a neighbor's printer when he'd get on my wireless network...lmfao
[07:19] <pirate-king> lol
[07:19] <pirate-king> I got 2 hard drives in my pc when I installed it saw both drives how come now that I installed xubuntu I can"t find see the scsi drive?///////////////
[07:19] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx:  thats why i try to arp cache poison him to find out what hes doing
[07:19] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, is he connecting illegally or messing with your network?
[07:20] <dutch> hey does anyone know why my Feisty install wont recognize my mouse wheel? ZAxisMapping is turned on with options "4 5"...
[07:20] <Punkunity> zcat[1] , cd to the tovid again
[07:20] <insomniac190> i just wanted to know if sbackup worked good for people that use it
[07:20] <zcat[1] > set up squid and filter all the web images through imagemagic, add blur or rotate them slightly...
[07:21] <varka> pirate-king: just try to imaging what would happen if every unanswered question wpuld be spammed to the channel every 10 seconds...
[07:21] <bullgard4> RAOF: Thank you very much. It helped!
[07:21] <pirate-king> yeah yeah sorry
[07:21] <zcat[1] > Punkunity: to the txt2whatever thing you just unpacked...
[07:21] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, does he has permission to be in your private network?
[07:22] <Punkunity> cdoh ok
[07:22] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx:  just cracking my wpa2 key a few times.. and no he doesnt have premission.. I just got lucky i notced him
[07:22] <bullgard4> zcat[1] : 'apt-cache search hwmon' does not produce an output. --  The answer of RAOF seems to be more appropriate.
[07:22] <zcat[1] > RoAkSoAx: in my opinion... his wap's been broadcasting "here I am, use me!" packets on a shared frequency about 50 times a second..
[07:22] <ubuntu> hey
[07:22] <ubuntu> someone here
[07:22] <ubuntu> i install automatix
[07:23] <ubuntu> is this good program
[07:23] <m_bison21> not really.
[07:23] <Ted_Nancy> Has changed the way it handles PCMCIA cards from Dapper, the solutions I'm finding online all require using programs and changing files that my system doesn't have.
[07:23] <zcat[1] > bullgard4: yeah, I realised that after I said it.. RAOFs answer was better
[07:23] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, what kind of router you using?
[07:23] <ubuntu> m_bison21: ????
[07:23] <Punkunity> bryan@bryan-desktop:~/Desktop/txt2tags-2.4$ ./configure
[07:23] <Punkunity> bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
[07:23] <Punkunity>   zcat[1]

[07:23] <ubuntu> why automatix is not good.
[07:23] <zcat[1] > Punkunity: is there a README.txt ?
[07:23] <Geeerd> how do i enable tv out for ubuntu?
[07:23] <RoAkSoAx> zcat[1] , yes he has and open wifi network
[07:24] <insomniac190> can someone tell me if what i am doing would change my network cards mac address?
[07:24] <Punkunity> yeah i think but it just explains what its all about, should it is a tgz file
[07:24] <jxxxt> ubunru: he said not really
[07:24] <jxxxt> ubuntu: he said not really
[07:24] <m_bison21> i would rather know what is happening .
[07:24] <zcat[1] > RoAkSoAx: otoh just 'cos my wifi is open doesn't mean I owe anyone an unmolested connection to the web :)
[07:24] <ubuntu> jxxt and why he say that
[07:24] <ubuntu> jxxxt: why it is not good
[07:24] <brylie> ubuntu, have you tried Synaptic?
[07:24] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, disable SSID broadcast, change your SSID and change password for a stronger one
[07:24] <ubuntu> it install ctrl+alt+del
[07:24] <Viddy> insomniac190: what are you doing?
[07:24] <hilts50_> Anyone have experience with the Ultimate OSX Pack?
[07:25] <ubuntu> brylie: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/install-popular-applications-in-ubuntu-feisty-fawn-using-automatix2.html
[07:25] <Punkunity> readme file is a bunch of crap zcat[1]  no install info in there
[07:25] <jxxxt> ubuntu: it breaks things and make dist upgrades v difficult
[07:25] <RoAkSoAx> zcat[1] , yeah but still if someone want to mess with an open connection will do it like if he was in your home
[07:25] <ubuntu> brylie: yes but did you see the what they have do
[07:25] <insomniac190> Viddy: I went into /etc/network/interfaces
[07:25] <Ayabara> I'm having trouble using VGA out from my laptop. Anyone know of a guide/tutorial/post that can help? I get an "out of range" message on my tv, so I suspect I have to adjust resolution (and maybe syncsignals)
[07:25] <ubuntu> jxxxt: man why don't you tell before
[07:26] <brylie> ubuntu, what they have do?
[07:26] <insomniac190> Viddy: then I added this line to the bottom of my eth0 section
[07:26] <jxxxt> ubuntu: I only just saw your Q
[07:26] <ubuntu> brylie: nothing
[07:26] <colleycol> Guys, Have a question.  I am trying to get the scroll on my serial mouse working.  Any hints?
[07:26] <ubuntu> jxxxt: ok what can i do,
[07:26] <brylie> ok
[07:26] <zcat[1] > Punkunity: building stuff from sources is usually hard...
[07:26] <varka> ubuntu automatix ignores a lot of programming principles and has no roll back function, if something goes wrong, its pretty hard to fix your system after that
[07:26] <ubuntu> jxxxt: i install gaim 2.06 beta it work
[07:26] <insomniac190> Viddy: hwaddress ether 'mac address"
[07:27] <Viddy> insomniac190: ah, it could
[07:27] <zcat[1] > !automatix
[07:27] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[07:27] <Viddy> insomniac190: depending on what you put for 'mac address'
[07:27] <ColdBeer> feross u there?
[07:27] <jxxxt> ubuntu: I Honestly do not know what to do.. maybe someone elase can help
[07:27] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx:  its a random 30 something character alphanumeric pw.. maybe i just disable ssid broadcast change ssid and pw.. then I should be okay right?
[07:27] <Airwulf> hello to you all
[07:27] <ubuntu> varka: and now i need to restore all what i install and delete it .
[07:27] <colleycol> hey
[07:28] <Airwulf> how can I change the umask for plugable devices (usb disk ...) on ubuntu?
[07:28] <m_bison21> so....my terminal won't open in gnome, it just says loading terminal for about 15-20 seconds and then disappears.
[07:28] <Viddy> insomniac190: i think...
[07:28] <m_bison21> anyone have advice on what i need to do to get it working?
[07:28] <Ted_Nancy> If someone can help me with my PCMCIA ethernet card problems please PM me.
[07:28] <insomniac190> Viddy: I put a series of 6 2-digit intervals "01:02:03:04...
[07:28] <Viddy> insomniac190: if you do a ifconfig eth0, does it show that mac address?
[07:28] <m_bison21> i just enabled xinerama...could this be related?
[07:28] <colleycol> anybody have any experience with serial mouse scrolling
[07:28] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, it would be harder for him, but you can also try using IP or MAC filtering. Use the rule where says: only allow the ones on the list, after creating a list of allowed pcs
[07:28] <hilts50_> Getting this error tying to change the usplash artwork......    usplash-artwork.c:1: error: expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '_attribute_' before 'opening'   Any ideas?
[07:29] <Viddy> insomniac190: if not, then it might next time you reboot or if you run /etc/init.d/networking restart as root
[07:29] <zcat[1] > oh well, stuff to do around here..
[07:29] <ssukijth> Hi'
[07:29] <spx2> running without fsck is a bless !!! :)
[07:29] <Punkunity> zcat[1] , there it is tright there in synaptic, but the program i first installed requires the txt2tags and it isnt in synaptic....whatever ty so much man, i'll leave tyou be ....for now..lol
[07:30] <Viddy> insomniac190: i take it you have read the man page for interfaces?
[07:30] <Viddy> insomniac190: ie, man interfaces ?
[07:30] <m_bison21> i've personally come to the conclusion that it is impossible to get a wiresless b card in kubuntu...anyone have experience?
[07:30] <imbecile> RoAkSoAx:  ok will do, dang I wanted to catch him.. i think its my stinky neighbor.. I always see him with laptop and he seems shifty.. i just hope he's not using it for anything nefarious
[07:30] <ColdBeer> feross u there?
[07:30] <insomniac190> Viddy:  not sure what that is
[07:30] <Jack31> is tehre a command to show the sizes of all folders in the current dir?
[07:31] <FunnyLookinHat> m_bison21, depends on the card...  but most cards will work in Ubuntu/Kubuntu just fine if you use the restricted drivers manager
[07:31] <KDan> hello all... trying to install sun-java5-bin and sun-java5-jre from .deb packages (since they've mysteriously disappeared from the repositories), but somehow even though i type "dpkg --install sun-java5*" it complains about dependencies between bin and jre...
[07:31] <Viddy> Jack31: du -sh *
[07:31] <KDan> any ideas?
[07:31] <Jack31> viddy, that doesnt show hidden files like .local etc
[07:31] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, he will probably the one who is doing that, remember that wifi networks have like 100 meters of range
[07:31] <Viddy> Jack31: heh, then its something like du -sh .
[07:32] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, i think it's like 300 feet
[07:32] <godtvisken> What's a program with which I could take a clip out of a large movie I have and add music or something to the background?
[07:32] <RoAkSoAx> imbecile, another thing that you can do is lowering the antennas broadcast power
[07:33] <m_bison21> FunnyLookinHat....my card doesn't seem to need restricted drivers...
[07:33] <FunnyLookinHat> m_bison21, what card do you have?  specific model number?
[07:33] <m_bison21> hmm...
[07:33] <m_bison21> wmp11 i believe..
[07:33] <m_bison21> linksys
[07:34] <Viddy> Jack31: ah, thats a lovely one
[07:34] <Flannel> !away > JaeSharpZZZ
[07:35] <gumjo> Hello, each time I install PCLOS on my system with Ubuntu and XP, it always installs its own grub menu over the existing one which only shows itself as an OS option. How can I keep the Ubuntu one??
[07:35] <FunnyLookinHat> m_bison21, check this out, should help you out...   http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=156980&postcount=7
[07:35] <Viddy> Jack31: the really ugly way is do: find |xargs du -sh
[07:35] <Viddy> but thats going to give you listings for everything
[07:36] <Jarrod> viddy your name reminds me of a clockwork orange
[07:36] <Viddy> heh
[07:37] <Viddy> Jarrod:  its came from an evening playing quake in the compsci labs at the uni, when i stuffed up and connected with the nick vid_mode :)
[07:37] <Viddy> it kinda stuck
[07:37] <hilts50_> anyone know how to change the usplash in feisty?
[07:38] <m_bison21> ok thanks funnylookinhat..i'll take a look.
[07:40] <Viddy> hilts50_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto
[07:40] <Viddy> seems to be quite a good starting place
[07:40] <bobstro> hilts50_: which do you want?
[07:40] <hilts50_> Viddy:  thanks.  I'll take a look.
[07:40] <cabin> hello
[07:40] <cabin> just wondering if anyone has time for a question
[07:40] <Flannel> !ask | cabin
[07:40] <hilts50_> Ohh a custom one.  trying to play a hoax on a friend make it look like an apple.
[07:40] <ubotu> cabin: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:41] <cabin> I am having troubles getting to my desaktop, there is 2 kernel entries and 2 recovery modes.. how can I set the proper one and delete the others from boot?
[07:41] <hilts50_> trying to follow these directions, but the command line instructions break down at the third step for usplash http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=200892
[07:41] <Draco_> morning everyone, can a Xchat user tell me if there is a setting somewhere to exclude file types from DCC ?
[07:42] <Viddy> hilts50_: heh, do you have sudo access?
[07:42] <hilts50_> yes sir
[07:42] <Draco_> I can accept .zip files but not avi mpg etc
[07:42] <cabin> im not sure what i did but i corrupted grub somehow
[07:43] <cabin> if i dont tell it to boot the kernel im on right now it gives an error about out of data or some such
[07:43] <ResPiDeR> hey... is there a correction to "desktop effects"? I keep enabling it and title disappears
[07:44] <jxxxt> cabin: you can edit your grub.conf just delete the ones you do not want be CAREful
[07:44] <Viddy> hilts50_: erm, this assumes that you've got gcc installed
[07:44] <cabin> just edit as root and delete?
[07:44] <hilts50_> Viddy:  GCC?
[07:45] <cabin> i'll have to restart to make sure which one is the good one
[07:45] <Flannel> cabin: It'll boot, by default, the most recent one.
[07:45] <Viddy> sure? i thought it was the top one
[07:45] <jxxxt> cabin: Yes but make sure first ok if you are not sure just comment them # first
[07:45] <Flannel> cabin: you remove te other one by removing the kernel package, with your package manager.  HOWEVER, it's usually a good idea to have 2 kernels (new one, and one old working one), just incase you find a bug
[07:45] <cabin> only one in the list (this one) seems to work
[07:45] <Draco_> any Xchat experts around ?
[07:45] <Flannel> DONT just edit the menu.lst.  jxxxt, cabin
[07:46] <cabin> so whats the best way again ? edit grub.conf?
[07:47] <jxxxt> flannel: What did I say?
[07:47] <ScurveyFrog> I'm trying to get my saa7146 device set up in Linux
[07:47] <jxxxt> cabin: Hang on
[07:47] <ScurveyFrog>  I have already done: modprobe dpc7146
[07:48] <ScurveyFrog> modprobe i2c-core, i2c-dev, videodev
[07:48] <ScurveyFrog> and now the device shows up in lsmod
[07:48] <ScurveyFrog> but I can't get any video through it
[07:48] <Viddy> hilts50_: heh, ah, yeah... the gnu c compiler. I've got to run, but I'd gently suggest that if you're going to pull a prank on your mate, putting the monitor out in the garage would probably be safer than modifying the kernel
[07:48] <ScurveyFrog> what do I need to try next?
[07:48] <Flannel> jxxxt: if you edit your menu.lst, the kernels will just come back the next time you install a new kernel
[07:48] <Flannel> cabin: no.  Remove the packages from your package manager.  But, its best to leave two kernels
[07:49] <ScurveyFrog> It is a Canopus capture card that I want to use as a dvb
[07:49] <jxxxt> flannel: OK sorry
[07:49] <hilts50_> Viddy: thanks for your time.
[07:49] <Viddy> np
[07:49] <cabin> what is the file name for the kernel file to remove?
[07:49] <jxxxt> cabin: I am giving you bad advise sorry
[07:49] <Flannel> cabin: linux-image-[version] -[arch]
[07:49] <thedonvaughn> cabin: linux-image-2.6.20-blah-blah
[07:50] <cabin> thanks a lot ...doing it
[07:50] <thedonvaughn> Flannel's is more descriptive :)
[07:50] <m_bison21> wow, i hope xinerama didn't fubar my install
[07:50] <ScurveyFrog> can someone help me with my video4linux problem?
[07:50] <Ted_Nancy> I just discovered my sound doesn't work. What gives. All this works on a fresh install of w2k
[07:50] <Ted_Nancy> sigh...
[07:50] <m_bison21> apparently xinerama + nvidia = fubar
[07:50] <RAOF> m_bison21: Yeah pretty much I think.  (No GL acceleration)
[07:51] <m_bison21> no terminal either.
[07:51] <thedonvaughn> Ted_Nancy: what sound card do you have?
[07:51] <m_bison21> no synaptec
[07:52] <Ted_Nancy> thedonvaughn: according to my manual, the ESS1879 sound chip
[07:52] <ScurveyFrog> Ted_Nancy: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=418360
[07:52] <RAOF> m_bison21: Oh, that bug.  You should be able to either disable composite or add argb-glx-visuals support
[07:53] <m_bison21> well, how would i go about editing xconfig without terminal?
[07:53] <m_bison21> no root access
[07:53] <thedonvaughn> Ted_Nancy: is this a laptop?   http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=96240&highlight=laptop+soundcard
[07:53] <cabin> one kernel is marked blah blah 23  and the other 27
[07:53] <cabin> bison are you in kde?
[07:53] <Ted_Nancy> yes, laptop
[07:53] <ScurveyFrog> Does someone know how to get a device to work with video4linux now that it is recognized in lsmod?
[07:54] <m_bison21> not at the moment.
[07:54] <Ted_Nancy> scurvey: "no such file or directory"
[07:54] <Flannel> m_bison21: no root access?
[07:54] <m_bison21> not on this partition.
[07:54] <ben_> hey-- I'm an idiot- - I deleted /etc/init.d/vmware -- can someone tell me what package that's in?
[07:54] <m_bison21> well....to edit xconfig i need to be a root...i can't edit it without access to terminal
[07:54] <Flannel> ben_: dpkg -S /etc/init.d/vmware
[07:54] <FunnyLookinHat> ben_, probably vmware-player
[07:54] <ben_> flannel thanks let me try that
[07:54] <RAOF> m_bison21: Boot into recovery mode
[07:54] <m_bison21> nor can i install another terminl wihtout a terminal in the first place.
[07:54] <ben_> FunnyLookinHat: you'd think... but it's not..
[07:55] <Flannel> m_bison21: Why don't you have a terminal?
[07:55] <ScurveyFrog> Ted_Nancy: when I clicked the link, it took me right to it
[07:55] <thedonvaughn> m_bison21: are you phyiscally at the machine?
[07:55] <m_bison21> xinerama + nvidia = fubar
[07:55] <m_bison21> well
[07:55] <m_bison21> almost fubar
[07:55] <Flannel> !doesntwork | m_bison21
[07:55] <ubotu> m_bison21: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[07:55] <gumjo> How can I keep ubuntu's GRUB menu from being overridden by another
[07:55] <ben_> Flannel:  it couldn't find it...  it's part of the main ubuntu installation I think....
[07:55] <tbuss> what does xine mean that I should reinstall xinel-lib..
[07:56] <thedonvaughn> gumjo: don't install other bootloaders into the mbr? :)
[07:56] <Flannel> ben_: "main ubuntu installation" is still packages
[07:56] <ben_> Flannel well it says it's not found...  it's a missing file-- I need to replace it.. I have no idea wher eit might be..
[07:56] <Flannel> ben_: it's vmware-player, right?
[07:57] <gumjo> the problem is I want to install another distro (PCLOS), and it always installs its own grub loader onto the existing ubuntu one, and it doesnt show any option for other OS like ubuntu and XP
[07:57] <ScurveyFrog> can anyone help me get my capture card working?
[07:57] <Flannel> ben_: /etc/init.d/vmware-player?
[07:57] <mark_> why does my mouse arrow turn black after the screensaver has been on
[07:57] <m_bison21> oh yeah i can install another terminal from the recovery boot .
[07:57] <RoAkSoAx> gumjo, install the new distro, and after that boot with an ubuntu live cd and reinstall GRUB
[07:57] <Flannel> m_bison21: How does nvidia drivers affect your ability to have a terminal?
[07:57] <asimismo> I'm installing ZoneMinder. I've got an error and Google says the solution is to increase Shared Memory. I try echo 134217728 > /proc/sys/kernel/shmall as suggested and get Permission Denied. Any idea what to try next?
[07:57] <Ted_Nancy> scurvy: sorry, I meant when I tried to follow the instructions on the page linked to by you.
[07:57] <m_bison21> flannel, its a bug
[07:57] <kaner_> how would one go about dual booting pclinuxos and ubuntu? i can boot the ubuntu but it wants to use the pclinuxos kernel..
[07:58] <ben_> Flannel: yeah I installed it then tried installing vmware-server (which isn't working) but to get vmware-server installed I deleted /etc/init.d/vmware and a couple of files like S20vmware-player   == but it turns out that re-installing vmware-player doesn't install those files...  i think they load vmmon and other kernel modules and I have no idea how to re-install those...
[07:58] <bimberi> asimismo: try 'sudo echo ...'
[07:58] <Flannel> m_bison21: moreso, how do you expect to install more terminals from a non-terminal single user mode?
[07:58] <m_bison21> the bug being nvidia drivers and xinerama = synatpetc broken, and terminal broken
[07:58] <ScurveyFrog> Ted_Nancy: oh, it's fine if you don't have the file. Just follow the rest of the instructions
[07:58] <Flannel> ben_: You need to remove/purge the package, then reinstall it
[07:58] <Flannel> ben_: in synaptic its "complete removal" in apt it's with --purge
[07:58] <ben_> Flannel: I did that...  I didn't purge.. just removed then installed and those files didn't reappear....
[07:59] <ben_> Flannel I coulda sworn I did that.. but I can try it again....
[07:59] <Flannel> ben_: right.  Just "remove" wont do anything about config, just binaries.
[07:59] <asimismo> bimberi: Sorry--should have said I run it under 'sudo' with the same error
[07:59] <gumjo> RoAkSoAx, how do I do that? I've install Ubuntu numerous times, I've never seen an option for that
[07:59] <m_bison21> i expect to install another terminal using apt-get from the recovery screen...i tihnk its just gnome thats broken

[07:59] <bimberi> asimismo: ah yes.  do a 'sudo -i' to get a root shell and run the echo... from there.
[07:59] <Flannel> m_bison21: if it's just gnome that's broken, you can get to a terminal.  ctrl-alt-f1
[07:59] <ben_> Flannel: I'm trying remove --purge again....
[07:59] <gumjo> !grub
[08:00] <asimismo> bimberi: Is the -i on the whole command string or a separate command?
[08:00] <Flannel> asimismo: the -i is an option to sudo.  You don't run it with a command, just `sudo -i` and thatll drop you into a root shell
[08:00] <RoAkSoAx> gumjo, go here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351
[08:00] <bimberi> asimismo: as a separate command  - 'sudo -i'
