[06:01] <cyberfall> which kinda blows
 done it
[06:02] <segfault_> cyberfall, nfs
[06:02] <xopher> segfault_, it actually compiles when I commented out the other package from the control file (bmpx-dev), any ideas what I should change to get them both compiled? dpkg-gencontrol: error: must specify package since control info has many. - Was the error..
[06:02] <Luke> is there any way to remove all the packages that are not in the ubuntu-server install or explicitly installed?
[06:02] <cyberfall> nfs?
[06:02] <NotWired> how can i find out which packages are installed on my system from the command line?
 done it
[06:02] <harisund> NotWired: dpkg --list
[06:02] <zmeiat_joro> hey, why didn't I think of that. putty
[06:02] <NotWired> thank you harisund
[06:02] <segfault_> xopher, paste ur control file in pastebin
[06:02] <cyberfall> putty wont transfer the files i think
[06:02] <LjL> Luke: you mean unused dependencies? debfoster or orphaner may help.  also, if you install stuff using aptitude rather than apt-get, removal of unused dependencies will be automatic.
[06:02] <thedash> any way I can see which version of a specific driver I have?
 done it
[06:02] <cyberfall> i think u have to use scp to do that
[06:02] <harisund> zmeiat_joro: I doubt putty will help you transfer files though
[06:03] <LjL> NotWired: dpkg --get-selections
[06:03] <trappist> I use winscp to transfer files
[06:03] <cyberfall> but i scp uses putty as a shell
[06:03] <semPid> o raposa do krlh responde fds
[06:03] <kaypax> can any1 suggest any photoshop-like application for Linux pls?:D
[06:03] <cyberfall> trappist, u got it to allow to open more then one file
[06:03] <trappist> kaypax: gimp
[06:03] <dyn-afk> the gimp offcourse
[06:03] <Luke> LjL: well I installed ubuntu-desktop and I want to remove it and all its deps now
[06:03] <semPid> o raposa do krlh responde fds
 done it
[06:03] <cyberfall> likst say a bunch of mp3s
[06:03] <picochu> is there a sshfs equivalent for windows?
[06:03] <segfault_> cyberfall, u can use nfs server if ur files are on another *nix box and mount that dir locally as if it were on ur machine
[06:03] <LjL> semPid: what the heck are you saying? =)
[06:03] <kaypax> trappist: no, not gimp
[06:03] <trappist> cyberfall: open?  it just transfers files
[06:03] <LjL> semPid: do you speak english?
[06:04] <semPid> sure
[06:04] <trappist> kaypax: that's as close as you'll get without running photoshop in wine
[06:04] <cyberfall> nfs umm..
[06:04] <xopher> segfault_, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25179/
[06:04] <harisund> NotWired: actially, dpkg --list | grep ^ii will give you a list of installed packages
[06:04] <semPid> bsdfox, done it, now what
[06:04] <Luke> LjL: debfoster and orphaner just look for unused libs right?
[06:04] <LjL> semPid: ... then way are you keeping saying pasting "<bsdfox> done it" and saying "o raposa do krlh responde fds"
[06:04] <kaypax> ok then, thanx for your advice, I'll try to do with GIMP^^
[06:04] <Sobek> kaypax: Gimp www.gimp.org
[06:05] <LjL> Luke: orphaner looks for libraries and -dev packages. debfoster is more manual, you have to manually tell it which packages you want to keep.  for the future, IMHO the best solution is to use aptitude (though that doesn't help right now)
[06:05] <picochu> i don't think samba traffic are encrypted.
[06:05] <Sobek> kaypax: with the gimpshop plug-in
[06:05] <semPid> LjL, install packard bell wipen?
[06:05] <harisund> picochu: no, samba is not encrypted.
[06:05] <cyberfall> does nfs work like samba would
[06:05] <Luke> LjL: why does aptitude track that stuff?
[06:05] <trappist> picochu: usernames and passwords are, if you configure it that way
[06:05] <stu_> where is the config file for X again, and whats it called please?
[06:05] <LjL> Luke: ... because it's handy? :o)
[06:05] <cyberfall> ill have to do some reading on that thx for the tip
[06:05] <trappist> nfs isn't encrypted either
[06:05] <harisund> stu_: /etc/X11? and /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:05] <LjL> Luke: ... because there are many people who'd like to do just what you've asked? ;)
[06:05] <cyberfall> samba isnt eather is it
[06:06] <semPid> LjL, install packard bell wipen?
[06:06] <Luke> LjL: is there a handy way to remove ubuntu-desktop and all its deps with aptitude?
[06:06] <stu_> ta
[06:06] <picochu> trappist,  which is why i use sshfs now
[06:06] <LjL> Luke: no -- well, yes, but only if you had *installed* it using aptitude in the first place
[06:06] <picochu> trappist, harisund  but is there sshfs client for windows systems?
[06:06] <Luke> LjL: thats what i asked origionally
[06:06] <Aque0s> what is better. ubuntu or debian?
[06:06] <stu_> anyone know what this is about: libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b  ??
[06:06] <LjL> Luke: if you had done that, it would just be "sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop". right now, i think you'll have to live with debfoster/orphaner. i know they aren't optimal
[06:06] <trappist> picochu: sshfs is nice if you're transferring a lot of sensitive files - if it's like music and stuff, that's an awful lot of encryption overhead
[06:06] <Luke> LjL: is there any other solution you know of?
[06:06] <harisund> picochu: good pint .. not to my knowledge.. I believe there was something with cygwin and sshfs.... but not sure.
[06:07] <mtodd> is there a way I can search the the apt-get servers that I don't have selected? (like, unstable, etc) (specifically for Ruby 1.8.5)
[06:07] <LjL> Luke: but your system simply doesn't *know* about which packages you installed manually and which where installed automatically
[06:07] <LjL> semPid: i don't understand what you're saying, sorry
[06:07] <mjr> sshfs is fuse-spesific, I doubt windows/cygwin supports that. But it sure is nice :)
[06:07] <Luke> LjL: aah i see - thank you
[06:07] <bsdfox> semPid, don't be annoying
[06:07] <trappist> Luke: when Edgy comes out, you'll be able to remove ubuntu-desktop, and apt will tell you what packages were automatically installed by it and no longer required
[06:07] <LjL> Luke: although... if you remove libgnome, most -- if not all -- gnome packages will go away
[06:07] <LjL> trappist: really? using what?
[06:07] <picochu> trappist,  encrpytion might be worth it when someone is snopping around :)
[06:07] <harisund> picochu: sshfs requires fuse -- which in turn requires kernel source..
[06:07] <segfault_> xopher, iirc u need only one package line for the bianry, u may need to create a sep pkg to create the -dev lib
[06:07] <semPid> LjL, How can I install a Packard Bell WiPen?
[06:08] <picochu> harisund, not so bad... what's wrong with using kernel source?
[06:08] <LjL> semPid: ah - i didn't get the "wipen"... yet, i have no idea...
[06:08] <trappist> LjL: built into apt
[06:08] <harisund> picochu: I meant on Windows :0
[06:08] <Luke> LjL: i suppose I can remove libgnome (will gtk go away too?) and then get the list of server packages and diff against that?
[06:08] <picochu> harisund, yeah i know.
[06:08] <ja> When adept notifier alerts me of an update, can I find out what the change is in the new package?
[06:08] <stu_> channel for X with berly, xgl or aixgl or whatever its called please?
[06:08] <LjL> trappist: when you say "apt", you actually mean the APT backend? so all of synaptic, adept, apt-get and company will do that?
[06:08] <xopher> segfault_, well when I compile beryl-core, I get beryl beryl-core and beryl-dev, so it should be possible..
[06:08] <trappist> picochu: again, depends on what you're transferring.  if somebody's snooping around my network, the last thing I'm worried about is somebody knowing what I'm listening to.  for example.
[06:09] <manuelchat3000> I have a NAT problem with Azureus. Did port forwarding. Run well on knoppix and windows. et problems with Ubuntu. I tied to allow the port with iptables. But nothing changes
[06:09] <LjL> Luke: no, i don't think libgtk will go away... you could remove that one, though -- it will remove even more stuff.  be careful you don't remove *too* much, though"!
[06:09] <trappist> LjL: I don't use the frontends much, so I don't know if they're all up to date with the functionality, but yeah it's a backend thing.
[06:09] <picochu> harisund, fuse is great i can even turn my inbox to a filesystem
[06:09] <harisund> picochu: indeed!
[06:09] <LjL> trappist: well that's real good news
[06:09] <harisund> manuelchat3000: wait .. you need to have port forwarding done by your gateway ..
[06:09] <manuelchat3000> Anyone experienced the same?
[06:09] <bsdfox> semPid, I can already tell this isn't going to work for you if you can't take what you found and google it
[06:10] <manuelchat3000> Harisund: I did
[06:10] <LjL> Luke: well, i'm not sure where to find a list of standard server packages, though.
[06:10] <geniusvicks> Which ubuntu 6.06 file shud I download? I have Pentium Celeron. Is it "i386" or somethin else
[06:10] <Luke> LjL: thanks for your suggestions. I think I will use aptitude all the time now. I never knew it tracked explicit installs so I didnt see any reason to use it over apt-get
[06:10] <harisund> manuelchat3000: and you opened up the required port using iptables?  If you want to know what i am doing. You'll have to ask me :)
[06:11] <harisund> anyone here used/uses tcpdump?  Thanks
[06:11] <picochu> geniusvicks,  torrent download speed is proportional to your upload speed
[06:11] <trappist> picochu: I'm security-conscious - so when I transfer anything over the internet, or transfer sensitive data anywhere, I use some manifestation of ssh.  but for most stuff at home, samba or nfs.
[06:11] <erUSUL> geniusvicks: i recomend torrent as it's nicer with the server
[06:12] <geniusvicks> oh
[06:12] <geniusvicks> erUSUL what do u mean, its nicer with the server?
[06:12] <Luke> LjL: oh I didnt know what but I will look into it. Thanks
[06:12] <stu_> channel for X with berly, xgl or aixgl or whatever its called please?
[06:13] <erUSUL> geniusvicks: you do not use bandwithd of the ubuntu server/mirror
[06:13] <geniusvicks> oh
[06:13] <Wanderer> Edgy on my laptop is rather nice
[06:13] <Luke> join #apache
[06:13] <Luke> oops
[06:14] <picochu> trappist,  i keep things consistent, secondly i don't think the encryption has a huge performance hit.
[06:14] <kothz> grumble.  has anyone had experience with a dell flat panel @ 1680x1050 + an intel onboard video adapter?
[06:15] <trappist> picochu: if you use -c blowfish there's much less of it.  that's what I use when I, say, do X forwarding.
[06:15] <Soekisan> hi, I added up another hard drive after the install of ubuntu.  i wanna know how to make it mount on startup
[06:16] <picochu> trappist, okay thanks.
[06:16] <scott_> hey, anyone help me with a usb pen drive issue? just bought a 2gig pen drive, it seems it has 2 paritions (one when switch on it is one way and another when switch is other way), atm i can only mount the partition when the switch is in the locked position, however this partition is only 1.4mb in size, the other partition (which i dont think is formatted) is 2gig in size, how can i get it to see/mount/format the other partition?
[06:16] <tonyyarusso> I use NetworkManager to handle my wifi connection, have have noticed that it won't connect until I actually log into Gnome via gdm (i.e. console won't have connection prior).  Why doesn't it just start up on boot?
[06:16] <picochu> trappist,  didn't really benchmark that :P
[06:16] <segfault_> xopher, sry i wont be able to help with that, i would compare ur control file for this to that of beryl-core and see wat is different and try to eliminate the differences
[06:17] <xopher> segfault_, just a sec then
[06:17] <caakins> Can someone help me
[06:17] <geniusvicks> Can I pause in Bit torrent and continue later someother day?
[06:17] <caakins> or give some advice on Adept
[06:17] <LjL> trappist, the apt thing reminds me, what has been / will be of the "Smart Package Manager" that was so talked about (even to the point of saying it would become the default package manager in Ubuntu) before this summer?
[06:17] <manuelchat3000> @harisund: what about tcpdump??
[06:17] <segfault_> !ask
[06:17] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:17] <Stork> when i try and log in using gnome my monitor says 'Out of signal range', what can i do to fix this? (note: it works fine on fluxbox atm)
[06:17] <LjL> Luke: not really much to look at, it's "sudo aptitude install blah", "sudo aptitude remove blah", "sudo aptitude reinstall blah", "sudo aptitude search blah"
[06:17] <manuelchat3000> What I`m supposed to do with that?
[06:17] <finalbeta> geniusvicks, yes
[06:18] <geniusvicks> finalbeta thanks
[06:18] <trappist> LjL: never heard of that
[06:18] <Luke> LjL: wow that is awesome! thanks!
[06:18] <LjL> trappist: oh
[06:18] <xopher> segfault_, here's the beryl-core one http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25182/
[06:19] <LjL> Luke: note that (since a recent new release of aptitude), if you try to remove a package that another package depends upon, it will not just go on and remove them both, but it will search for possible "solutions", give them a score, and present them to you ordered by score
[06:19] <LjL> Luke: i'm telling you this because it put me off a little when this appeared
[06:19] <finalbeta> scott_, that's weird. Normally the switch enabled writing to the stick.  ehm 1.4Mb size partition. Is it a special boot stick or something?
[06:19] <Stork> when i try and log in using gnome my monitor says 'Out of signal range', what can i do to fix this? (note: it works fine on fluxbox atm)
[06:19] <caakins> Why are programs greyed out in    Adept ?
[06:20] <Soekisan> i thought it would be like windows but it seems like i have to declare the new HDD somewere to make it mount on startup, i just dont know where. anyone could tell me please?
[06:20] <LjL> trappist: it's the "smartpm" package anyway, in case you wonder
[06:20] <segfault_> xopher, 1st thing to try is the spacing, between the end of description and next package tag
[06:20] <scott_> finalbeta, not that i know of, the 1.4mb partition has on it a .exe and the manual, telling you that the .exe etc is sued to set a password and the likes, when i switch it to the unlocked position ubuntu won't even see it, let alone mount it :(
[06:20] <scott_> finalbeta, ubuntu's has finally just seen it, although cant mount it
[06:21] <segfault_> xopher, the parser may distinguish pkgs based on spacing
[06:21] <Luke> LjL: oh good call
[06:21] <xopher> segfault_, ok, trying it now
[06:21] <Luke> LjL: thanks agian. I can use this I think

[06:23] <caakins> WHY
[06:23] <voLvo> how to setup openssh server
[06:23] <finalbeta> scott_, I don't know. Reading the error I would think a bad partition table or non formatted disk. But when you buy them that's unlikely.

[06:23] <ubotu> ssh is the Secure SHell protocol (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto). Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows, which can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[06:23] <manuelchat3000> someone of you as a clue about how make working Azureus. I did port forwarding and every goddamn. In windows works, in Ubuntu doesn`t.
[06:23] <LjL> voLvo: "sudo aptitude install openssh-server"
[06:23] <voLvo> ok good thanks LjL
[06:23] <scott_> finalbeta, i think the 2nd partition isnt formatted (well qparted says it isnt, but wont let me format/partition it)
[06:24] <finalbeta> scott_, you are sure it's write enabled? Normally a stick lets you lock it.
[06:24] <RaD|Tz> If I interrupt the upgrade from breezy to edgy, haow can I restart it?

[06:45] <spocky> I'm trying to use edgy-beta, and I'm having a problem with sudo. Suddenly sudo says "sudo: timestamp too far in the future: Sep 29 20:39:46 2006" if I try to sudo anything. If I change the system time to some time after that it works, but if I get the real time, I get the same message... What could this be? And what could I do about it?
[06:45] <romaluca> i have this problem with upgrade ubuntu tu 6.10beta:Can't mark 'ubuntu-desktop' for upgrade (E:Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.)   Ive followed a howto online and installed the required packages but still no aac support

[06:56] <segfault_> xopher, np i recall the parser for the control file not being very intelligent
[06:56] <yakumo> hello
[06:56] <jazzrocker> hi
[06:56] <POVaddct> juliano: btw, "folder" is windowsspeak, it's called "directory" in unix
[06:56] <yakumo> is there any download accelerator for ubuntu???
[06:57] <jazzrocker> POVaddct, iirc it's called "dir" in windows as well
[06:57] <jazzrocker> POVaddct, and regardless... they do usually mean the same thing
[06:57] <snarfer> yakumo: Try Google.com/linux
[06:57] <gh0st> helolo, how can i get the latest built of VLC for amd64?
[06:57] <snarfer> And google for something
[06:57] <snarfer> That, or use wget
[06:58] <gh0st> can i simply use the one for debian?
[06:58] <jazzrocker> gh0st, usually you can try that yes, but there's no guarantee that simply installing a .deb will work if it's not for Ubuntu specifically
[06:59] <LjL> yakumo: d4x, gwget, jigdo -- for Gnome programs
[06:59] <yakumo> i have d4x
[06:59] <LjL> yakumo: from the console, axel is nice -- and wget is the most used downloader, though it's not really an "accelerator"
[06:59] <romaluca> i have this problem with upgrade ubuntu tu 6.10beta:Can't mark 'ubuntu-desktop' for upgrade (E:Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.) How i can do?
[06:59] <Jas-Nix> hello, I have a ViewSonic monitor, and the only way to get it to work is to add a ModeLine to my xorg.conf, how can I do that with the livecd ?
[06:59] <LjL> yakumo: if you want to download a file from multiple servers concurrently, i suggest axel
[07:00] <yakumo> how do i continue my download??
[07:00] <nickspoon> Jas-Nix: try the Alternate Boot CD.
[07:00] <magda> hola
[07:00] <LjL> yakumo: with wget? "-c" option
[07:00] <yakumo> thnks il try it
[07:00] <Jas-Nix> nickspoon: ok so can't do it with livecd huh, the alternate requires a full install without being aable to try it out right ?
[07:01] <snarfer> I have a non-support question, but not so much as it is a question, than a statement.
[07:01] <LjL> yakumo: note that, like most programs, you can read a comprehensive reference for wget by typing "man wget"
[07:01] <yakumo> is d4x allow you to continue your download?
[07:01] <LjL> yakumo: yes
[07:01] <nickspoon> Jas-Nix: yeah.
[07:01] <LjL> yakumo: not that i used it much, but it certainly does
[07:01] <snarfer> I have to do a big year-long project at my school, so I h have decided to give students server-based services based on FOSS
[07:01] <jazzrocker> LjL, i'd hardly go so far as to call most man pages "comprehensive"
[07:02] <Paddy_EIRE> how do i change permissions of directories I copied of my external hdd as root so that all file contained within them can be read and writtin to by me
[07:02] <LjL> jazzrocker: well, the wget one is.
[07:02] <yakumo> but i can't seem to open my d4x. its always crush everytime i open it
[07:02] <snarfer> I have had nothing but positive output from Ubuntu, I think I will continue to use it for this project.
[07:02] <jazzrocker> LjL, fair'nuff
[07:03] <kurt> hi I just tried to add a printer true cups (as written in Ubuntu unleased)
[07:04] <kurt> but he asked me the username and pasword
[07:04] <kurt> but don't have the root pwd
[07:04] <LjL> !cups
[07:04] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[07:04] <LjL> kurt: CUPS access via the web is disabled
[07:04] <frank95com> hello
[07:04] <kurt> LjL: so the Ubuntu unleashed is wrong here?
[07:04] <yakumo> if i use the wget. where is the download file go?
[07:05] <snarfer> Can Ubuntu print via samba?
[07:05] <snarfer> It should...
[07:05] <LjL> kurt: i dunno. you can enable it, of course. perhaps it is talking about an older version that has it enabled
[07:05] <LjL> kurt: don't ask me how to get it enabled though, i don't know. i suppose it'll be somewhere in the links above
[07:05] <kurt> :)
[07:05] <kurt> tnx for helping LjL
[07:06] <GNu_Joe> How to add more desktops on Gnome? I want 6 or 8 instead of the default 4
[07:07] <Juhaz> right click on the pager. properties
[07:07] <jazzrocker> right click on the pager
[07:07] <GNu_Joe> Juhaz: jazzrocker tried that did not work
[07:08] <jazzrocker> GNu_Joe, then you're on crack
[07:08] <GNu_Joe> I'm also running compiz ( would that make a diffrence ? )
[07:08] <jazzrocker> oh
[07:08] <jazzrocker> might
[07:11] <GNu_Joe> any ideas on how to google it?
[07:11] <soundmaster80> there should be a compiz manager for gnome that you can change it in
[07:11] <soundmaster80> at least i thought there was
[07:13] <sureshot> here is a stupid question what is compiz
[07:13] <nickspoon> GNu_Joe: system->preferences->compiz settings manager, choose the 'rotate cube' options and change the number of faces.
[07:14] <GNu_Joe> sureshot: it's a 3D desktop useing the GLX lib in X
[07:14] <GNu_Joe> nickspoon: let me try, I disabled the cube
[07:14] <sureshot> is it different than just plan gnome
[07:14] <nickspoon> GNu_Joe: whoops, I mean 'general desktop'->virtual horizontal width.
[07:15] <GNu_Joe> sureshot: yes, it's all the eye candy that will go into the next version of OSX ( mac ) and Vista
[07:15] <yakumo> anyone know how to remove program. i try using add/remove program but the program i want to remove is not where to be found? pls
[07:16] <Descention> if im using the terminal, how can i show only as much as my window can hold at a time?  so it doesnt page through all the information before going too far up the screen?
[07:16] <junix-br> in the dapper installation the wi-fi board is recognized and ndiswrapper (restricted module) is installed ?
[07:16] <GNu_Joe> nickspoon: THANKS! that was it
[07:17] <nickspoon> no problem :)
[07:17] <junix-br> somebody knows?
[07:17] <erUSUL> Descention: use a pager such as less e.g. 'ls -al | less'
[07:17] <GNu_Joe> nickspoon: whould not have though that setting was it... does it sound like a bug report?
[07:17] <sureshot> is it difacult to instal xand use i have a ati mobility radeon 600 se with 128mb on board
[07:17] <orbital04> Hi, anyone familiar with Sound Recorder and the Rhythm Box music player? I have Ubuntu 6.0
[07:18] <Descention> erUSUL: thank you
[07:18] <nickspoon> GNu_Joe: I'd say yeah. Took me a bit of digging :)
[07:18] <erUSUL> Descention: np
[07:18] <GNu_Joe> sureshot: it's not that easy, BUT it is the easyest in Ubuntu though
[07:19] <sureshot> thanks is it in the repos
[07:19] <shriphani> when you got to install ati drivers it is easyubuntu
[07:19] <shriphani> point and click to install them
[07:19] <yakumo> how do i reinstall program using apt-get install

[07:20] <HiP_P> Wanderer: how do i do that?
[07:20] <shriphani> thats the one
[07:20] <abbi2b> :)
[07:20] <shriphani> yakumo, apt-get remove and then install it again
[07:20] <orbital04> My 'problem' is when I'm playing a radio stream with Rhythm Box and record it with Sound Recorder in 'capture' mode, I get an .ogg file that plays with no sound. Other ogg files seem to play alright. Any thoughts out there?
[07:21] <yakumo> thnks
[07:21] <shriphani> the deb you downloaded is saved
[07:21] <shriphani> so apt-get wont downoad the package again
[07:21] <orbital04> mmn
[07:22] <shriphani> nat/ibm eh
[07:22] <shriphani> cool
[07:22] <dirk_> whats the repositiry where i can download kernel-source or kernel-tre 2.6.15 ?
[07:23] <dirk_> is there some universal repo?
[07:23] <dirk_> whats the repositiry where i can download kernel-source or kernel-tre 2.6.15 ?
[07:23] <shriphani> dirk_, isnt there a website ?
[07:23] <sureshot> how do you change what browser konversation opens up when you click on an url it opens opra what it to open firefox or mozilla
[07:23] <dirk_> which?
[07:23] <dirk_> what website
[07:23] <shriphani> http://kernel.org/
[07:23] <shriphani> thats the website
[07:24] <dirk_> ok, how do i use synaptik with it?
[07:24] <kjm> is there a codec to play music from an iPod that has been purchased from iTunes store?  Plays all my mp3's etc. fine, just not the crap DRM'ed things.
[07:24] <shriphani> dirk_, what ?
[07:24] <Starker> I have recently installed Ubuntu.. The problem is its giving me hard time configuring the internet. I use Ethernet dsl modem... Its already installed and working with Ubuntu have checked every possible thing I could have applied my Isp setting too i.e Dns Ip blah blah... can anyone tell me what possibly the reason could be its not connecting to internet
[07:25] <dirk_> i want to apt-get the kernel source that corresponds my kernel image
[07:25] <shriphani> well check it then and download the source from kernel.org
[07:25] <HiP_P> in fact how do i switch from alsa to oss as the sound deamon
[07:26] <kjm> Starker : for some reason, sometimes when you use static settings, sometimes on reboot, DNS servers are cleared.  So, you are probably "connecting" just have no DNS configured.
[07:26] <kjm> Starker : I found some fixes through google, but haven't tried any of them, cause I rarely reboot.
[07:27] <shriphani> Starker, you entered the nameserver addresses in resolv.conf ?
[07:27] <HiP_P> !alsa
[07:27] <knapper> can anyone tell me if there is such a thing has a kubuntu unstable repository? I'm looking for a repo that contains the unstable version of kwin-baghira.
[07:27] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure alsa is selected by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (Alsa Mixer). If you are still having problems with sound, then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[07:27] <erUSUL> HiP_P: oss and alsa are not sound daemons they are sound driver framewoks for the kernel. newer kernels us alsa by default but with a copability oss layer so older apps (and skype) can work
[07:27] <porkpie> guy I am just trying to build a dell power edge with Dual Embedded Broadcom NetXtreme II 5708 Gigabit Ethernet NIC they are not being detected
[07:28] <Starker> Shriphani : now English please.. I dont understand this lingo ..I happen to a window user switched to Ubuntu yesterday :)
[07:28] <HiP_P> ahhh
[07:28] <Starker> to be *
[07:28] <shriphani> hmm i was just asking if you put the dns server addresses in resolv.conf
[07:29] <HiP_P> so how do you switch over to oss because the sound card is list alsa only
[07:29] <kjm> shripani : I take from his response - he didn't.  Starker - use your Administration->Network GUI.  Click on the "DNS" tab and enter the name server that is supplied by your ISP.
[07:29] <shriphani> shriphani@ubuntu-box:/etc$ cat resolv.conf
[07:29] <shriphani> nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:29] <shriphani> nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:30] <Starker> I dont know man what this resolv.conf actually is.. I used Adminitrator> netwrok to enter my configurations
[07:30] <erUSUL> HiP_P: you can't
[07:30] <shriphani> Starker, type cat /etc/resolv.conf
[07:30] <HiP_P> ah bum :(
[07:30] <kjm> Starker : check this thread - it will fix the problem (if it is DNS).  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=225008
[07:30] <orbital04> Hi, I have Ubuntu 6.0. When I try to record radio streams I'm listening to on Rhythm Box with Sound Recorder, I end up with an .ogg file that plays but there is no sound. Other .ogg files seem to play ok. Any thoughts out there?
[07:30] <shriphani> and paste the output here if it aint huge
[07:30] <A[D] minS> Starker:  resolv.conf DNS file
[07:31] <shriphani> that will help us know if the dns server addresses are actually there or not
[07:31] <sureshot> how do you change what browser konversation opens up when you click on an url it opens opra what it to open firefox or mozilla
[07:31] <HiP_P> hmmm
[07:31] <erUSUL> HiP_P: however you can use oss apps becouse alsa sets up a comp. layer as i said
[07:31] <shriphani> sureshot, chane default browser to firefox

[07:47] <trappist> sureshot: I think fglrxinfo is deprecated.  not sure about that though.
[07:47] <hume> erUSUL, seems that there is one package netstat-nat - is that it?

[07:50] <dirk_> -shriphani-: whats sourcomatic?
[07:50] <shriphani> kernel.org
[07:50] <dirk_> wtf
[07:50] <dirk_> i need a source.list file
[07:50] <hume> erUSUL, there seems to be a lot of "active UNIX domain sockets" - are they just local or can they be malign?
[07:50] <shriphani> dirk_, a ubuntu sources.list generator
[07:50] <sureshot> guess i am not using fglrx it says ati.. how to chang if i change the driver to fglrx and dont have it x wont work may i ask how to change it
[07:50] <dirk_> so also can get other stuff
[07:51] <bbrazil> !easysource
[07:51] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[07:51] <bbrazil> hume: local
[07:51] <justthisguy> dirk, and software properties can do it too, with quite a lot of control
[07:51] <justthisguy> but take your pick
[07:51] <trappist> sureshot: sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx and change 'ati' to 'fglrx' in your xorg config
[07:52] <trappist> !ati
[07:52] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:52] <sureshot> trappist you the man thanks again
[07:52] <erUSUL> hume: use 'netstat -inet -pn'
[07:52] <trappist> sureshot: check that out
[07:52] <erUSUL> dirk_: install linux-source
[07:53] <hume> erUSUL, but that just shows me the interfaces?
[07:53] <tjb> Does Edgy contain Xgl?
[07:53] <wetduck> How do I access my oem account?
[07:54] <trappist> wetduck: what *is* an oem account.
[07:54] <erUSUL> hume: is 'netstat --inet -pn' sorry
[07:54] <sureshot> trappist ok man thanks
[07:54] <hume> ok
[07:54] <wetduck> trappist, after installing Ubuntu the only account avaiable is an oem account. I mean the last version. Do you have last version Ubuntu?
[07:55] <mih> exit
[07:56] <erUSUL> wetduck: only if you install in oem mode. and you only do that if you have a good reason
[07:56] <erUSUL> !oem
[07:56] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues

[07:56] <xplic1t> can i upgrade dapper's php5 from 5.1.2 to 5.1.6?
[07:56] <xplic1t> using the tar.gz from php.net?
[07:56] <erUSUL> xplic1t: no
[07:57] <erUSUL> xplic1t: do you really need the latest version??
[07:57] <xplic1t> i just need to recompile it to support xslt
[07:57] <trappist> wetduck: I still don't know what you mean by oem
[07:57] <bignose_> so.. i just changed my hostname using sudo hostname, and toally buggered sudo ;) now i can't sudo to edit my hosts files and keep getting this error sudo: unable to lookup zim via gethostbyname()
[07:57] <trappist> wetduck: do you mean the account you set up during installation?
[07:58] <D-Man`> anyone running ubuntu and osx dual boot ?
[07:58] <porkpie1> can some tell me what the server channel is called
[07:58] <linuxboyfriend> hi all
[07:58] <miranda82> hello everyone
[07:58] <linuxboyfriend> is it possible to install ichat in ubuntu?
[07:58] <wetduck> erUSUL, Ok, I did that, don't know why, and I worked in it per almoust a week. Today I decided to start my *official* account and all folders I used to have in /Desktop are gonne. Do you have any idea about there it could be?
[07:58] <miranda82> does anyone know if it's possible to allow desktop scaling in vncserver?
[07:59] <erUSUL> trappist: if you install in oem mode you do not get asked for username/password and instead an oem/oem accaunt is created to set up the system
[07:59] <kurtiss> man, the ubuntu installer's partition manager just fscked me
[07:59] <arcade> erUSUL: Hmpfh.  I'm kind of embarrassed.  I finally found out why that machine I had problems with yesterday, failed.
[07:59] <justthisguy> wetduck: your original files should be in /home/<oemusername> ?
[07:59] <Dr_Willis> miranda82,  differnet vncviewers have different features.. ive seen some for windows that allow that.. i think the kde vncviewer does also
[07:59] <miranda82> Dr_Willis, thx, i'm looking in the man page but i can't find it...
[08:00] <porkpie1> trappist:what information do you need to know about this Dual Embedded Broadcom NetXtreme II 5708 Gigabit Ethernet NIC
[08:00] <erUSUL> wetduck: you used the oem accaunt untill today? and now created a new user and you are using it. the files you created so far are still afaics in the oem home folder
[08:00] <wetduck> erUSUL, yes, more or lass like that.
[08:00] <porkpie1> trappist:there is a redhat and suse driver for this ...
[08:00] <brett_h> Er, can anyone help me find 'gzcat' --- Doesn't seem to be provided by anything I can find...
[08:01] <justthisguy> brett_h: can less do something like that?
[08:01] <erUSUL> wetduck: as i said the files must be in the oem home folder
[08:01] <wetduck> erUSUL, in fact I dont need to create a new account but access my acount.
[08:01] <wetduck> The thing is I have no /home/oem
[08:01] <B4L1STA> Can anyone help me with installing from my USB thumb drive?
[08:01] <brett_h> justthisguy: But I don't want a pager, I want a pipe
[08:01] <wetduck> I just have /home/wetduck
[08:01] <shriphani> brett_h, is that an app
[08:01] <brett_h> shriphani: Yes
[08:01] <miranda82> Dr_Willis, do u know another server i could use to do it?
[08:02] <erUSUL> wetduck: make a search in the whole system for the files they must be somewhere
[08:02] <Dr_Willis> miranda82,  its not a server thing.. its a vnc client thing.. i think
[08:02] <Rookie-> !alsa
[08:02] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure alsa is selected by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (Alsa Mixer). If you are still having problems with sound, then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[08:02] <wetduck> erUSUL, I did that. Nothing found in the hole system.
[08:02] <DiLupo> evening
[08:02] <justthisguy> brett_h: I thought less could do pipes, but maybe not
[08:02] <miranda82> Dr_Willis, nah, cuz my client (in the palm) has desktop scaling options
[08:02] <Dr_Willis> miranda82,  ive used Ultravnc on windows and had all sorts of neat vncviewer options/scaling/modes/tweaks
[08:02] <shriphani> brett_h, apt-cache search gzcat
[08:02] <M_A_K> Twice I have installed kubuntu and both times after restart i get "Boot Sector Invalid".  What can I do?
[08:02] <Dr_Willis> miranda82,  Palm? Ick!
[08:03] <miranda82> Dr_Willis, yeah, but i do not want windows...
[08:03] <erUSUL> wetduck: i've never set up a oem install so i do not know what may have happened maybe when you created the new user the oem accaunt got deleted....
[08:03] <wetduck> erUSUL, maybe the only way to access those is login as oem, but that doesn't work anymore tha way it used to work before I activate this account I am in now.
[08:03] <miranda82> Dr_Willis, what's wrong with palm?
[08:03] <B4L1STA> MAK, did you install LILO or grub?
[08:03] <M_A_K> I am guessing grub (default install).  Never got an option.
[08:04] <DiLupo> anyone have exp with Atheros WIFI devices under Ubuntu?
[08:04] <Dr_Willis> miranda82,  for a vncviewer - egads...
[08:04] <Dr_Willis> miranda82,  You gotbetter eyes then I do..
[08:04] <miranda82> Dr_Willis, sorry?
[08:04] <Dr_Willis> Lol.
[08:04] <B4L1STA> All I can say is that i'd go throuhg the install in expert mode, it gives you more options on installing the bootloader
[08:04] <B4L1STA> i dunno though
[08:05] <porkpie1> trappist:14e4164c  Yes  Broadcom Corporation  NetXtreme II BCM5708 Gigabit Ethernet  bnx2     this is from the debian hcl
[08:05] <shriphani> B4L1STA, the dapper install is graphial
[08:05] <miranda82> Dr_Willis, sorry... i'm lost...
[08:05] <xplic1t> I used apt-get install sablotron.   how can I configure php to recognize it?
[08:05] <justthisguy> brett_h: I have a gzcat on my system, its a perl program from libcompress-zlib-perl, though
[08:05] <porkpie1> trappist:any idea where I get the driver for ubuntu
[08:05] <B4L1STA> but you get an option for "expert" when you first boot
[08:05] <shriphani> B4L1STA, no
[08:05] <shriphani> its just a live cd
[08:06] <thenakedcowboy> hey does anyone know a good way to convert mp3 files using hoary ubuntu?
[08:06] <erUSUL> wetduck: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ubuntu_OEM_Installer_Overview have you runned 'sudo oem-config-prepare'?? becouse that deletes the oem account
[08:06] <shriphani> or wait
[08:06] <B4L1STA> even on the live CD though
[08:06] <shriphani> there is Start Or  Install Ubuntu first
[08:06] <Jas-Nix> can anyone tell me what "install in oem mode" means ?
[08:06] <M_A_K> So what can I do?  Is there a way to correct it?
[08:06] <B4L1STA> when you first put it in you have bootime parameters...
[08:06] <shriphani> B4L1STA, i think y are right
[08:06] <wetduck> erUSUL, yes I run 'sudo oem-config-prepare'
[08:06] <erUSUL> Jas-Nix:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ubuntu_OEM_Installer_Overview
[08:06] <DiLupo> convert mp3 files to what?
[08:07] <B4L1STA> I'm not completely sure, but it sounds like the bootloader isnt getting installer properly
[08:07] <jman8888> Is there any good games to play in Cedega?
[08:07] <Jas-Nix> cool thanx
[08:07] <xamox> alright I just setup ubuntu server
[08:07] <xamox> and have done a: apt-get update
[08:07] <B4L1STA> So can anyone help me install from a USB thumb drive?
[08:07] <erUSUL> wetduck: then as the wiki page says the oem account get deleted and your files probably are gone :( sorry
[08:07] <xamox> then apt-get -y install links
[08:07] <xamox> and it wants the cd-rom drive
[08:07] <thenakedcowboy> convert them to .wav
[08:07] <xamox> but I want it to grab it from the net
[08:07] <xamox> what do I have to do?
[08:07] <M_A_K> B4L1STA : so how do I correct this?
[08:08] <shriphani> xamox, what did sudo apt-get update show up on the screen ?
[08:08] <DiLupo> why would you want to do that?
[08:08] <HiP_P> anyways ---- cheers all catch ya later
[08:08] <xamox> DiLupo, me?
[08:08] <B4L1STA> MAK: i'm not completely sure but just try going back through the install process in expert mode, maybe try using LILO instead of GRUB, but that's just a guess i'm not sure it will work
[08:08] <M_A_K> How do I use expert mode?
[08:09] <xamox> do I have manually specify my sources in apt-get to use the net instead of my cd-rom?
[08:09] <B4L1STA> when it firsts boots the CD there's a prompt and you would normally just hit enter, but instead type 'expert' and then hit enter
[08:09] <DiLupo> no, the converting MP3 to WAV, why would you want to do that? convert to Ogg, yup, to WAV, why?
[08:09] <M_A_K> I will try.  Thanks
[08:09] <wetduck> erUSUL, My lord I used to have important stuff there. Is there a way to log as root in Ubuntu?
[08:09] <sureshot> !ati
[08:09] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:09] <B4L1STA> xamox, try editing /etc/apt/sources.list

[08:10] <erUSUL> wetduck: 'sudo -i' gives you a root shell but i'm afraid that will not be of much help...
[08:10] <thenakedcowboy> well what is a good way to convert them to ogg? or is there an mp3 player available? i just installed ubuntu last night, i dont know an awful lot about it
[08:10] <shriphani> wetduck isnt there a rescue mode or something
[08:11] <jman8888> thenakedcowboy: amarok
[08:11] <DiLupo> xmms is a good MP3 player
[08:11] <shriphani> thenakedcowboy, soundconverter
[08:11] <wetduck> erUSUL, yes, I am not trying to recover that files through that. I just want to open some extra painesl that an oem account have.
[08:11] <bsdfox> I like amarok
[08:11] <jman8888> !mp3 > thenakedcowboy
[08:11] <shriphani> to convert them to ogg
[08:11] <erUSUL> wetduck:  apt-cache search undelete try this utilities i've never done so myself but may be the only thing you can do
[08:11] <xamox> don't you need kde libs for Amarok?
[08:11] <justthisguy> DiLupo: beep-media-player is an updated version of xmms
[08:11] <wetduck> shriphani, yes. I think that there is a rescue from install cd.
[08:11] <justthisguy> its pretty good
[08:11] <xamox> wetduck, sudo -s
[08:11] <jman8888> xamox: No..
[08:11] <xamox> wetduck, will give you root
[08:12] <shriphani> jman8888, amarok will take like 80 mb of download on gnome
[08:12] <justthisguy> sudo su <-- easier to remember
[08:12] <orbital04> Hi, anyone handy with Sound Recorder?
[08:12] <DiLupo> anyway, you don't need Qt or GTK to install XMMS
[08:12] <B4L1STA> Can anyone help me install from my USB drive?
[08:12] <justthisguy> DiLupo: true
[08:12] <xamox> yeah, xmms seems more lightweight
[08:12] <SpudDogg> hello all
[08:12] <DiLupo> and if it's just MP3's you want to listen to...
[08:13] <jman8888> How can i convert OOG -> Mp3?
[08:13] <Dr_Willis> jman8888,  i googled one and found a few scripts that doiot.
[08:13] <DiLupo> you prob need OGG tools and codec
[08:13] <wetduck> ok guys thank you!
[08:13] <Dr_Willis> jman8888,  the quality can sort of suck.
[08:13] <justthisguy> jman8888: lame for cli, or gstreamer for something a bit more graphical
[08:13] <jman8888> Dr_Willis: Well i cant play oog's on my mp3 player.

[08:14] <foureight84> is anyone here using conky with compiz?
[08:14] <jman8888> Dr_Willis: Should i rerip my cd's to LAME? (Or lossless or whatever.)
[08:14] <psycose> hi do you have good docs on installing ubuntu on sun blade 150 ? i have not find lot of inforation on google thanks
[08:14] <DiLupo> than stick to MP3, don't convert unless you have to...
[08:14] <justthisguy> Dr_Willis: theres a lot to read up on the lame man page, you can get really good mp3s at low sizes
[08:14] <DiLupo> Every time you convert, you lose a bit of quality
[08:14] <wetduck> !oem overview
[08:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about oem overview - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:14] <B4L1STA> You'll lose quality going from compressed format to compressed format, so I would rerip.
[08:14] <foureight84> when i have on_window set to no, conky doesn't show up when compiz loads
[08:14] <Dr_Willis> justthisguy,  but the act ofgoing from ogg tomp3 can be the issue
[08:15] <xamox> what is better links or lynx?
[08:15] <foureight84> how do i do a delay boot for conky>
[08:15] <Dr_Willis> jman8888,  that would give the best sound.
[08:15] <Focuz> hi all!
[08:15] <jman8888> DiLupo: Im ok with that. Just how do i.
[08:15] <justthisguy> xamox: elinks

[08:15] <Grom123> bonsoir !
[08:16] <Dr_Willis> miranda82,  when you chose scaling onthe Palm It loses connection?
[08:16] <miranda82> yes
[08:16] <jman8888> Dr_Willis: Dr_Willis But how do i convert?
[08:16] <DiLupo> B4L1STA> I'm a Pastafarian, don't believe in God's love... What are you trying to install

[08:17] <jman8888> B4L1STA: I thought a thumb drive will work.
[08:17] <DiLupo> B4L1STA> Does the bios of the machine support booting from USB?
[08:17] <spiekey> i can send mails via smtp auth by using ~/.mailrc and ~/.msmtprc
[08:17] <spiekey> can i set this up globally, too?
[08:17] <spiekey> for all outgoing system mails?
[08:18] <B4L1STA> DiLupo, yes it does.  I can boot the Breezy Badger image, but when I follow the same process for Dapper it doesn't work!
[08:18] <Paddy_EIRE> anyone know how I can change permissions of a Directory all sub-directories and files contained within
[08:18] <jrib> Paddy_EIRE: chmod -R
[08:18] <miranda82> Dr_Willis, it a server problem "The server you are using does not support server-side scaling."
[08:18] <fyrestrtr> scarabatwork: well its simple, exim is running :)
[08:19] <xplic1t> where do i run ./configure for php?
[08:19] <Dr_Willis> miranda82,  thisis the first id ever heard of 'server side scaleing' then.
[08:19] <fyrestrtr> xplic1t: php is available in repos.
[08:19] <DiLupo> B4> to be honest, Dapper failed on my machine as well... went for Edgy
[08:19] <miranda82> Dr_Willis, lol, there is always a first time 4 everything ;)
[08:19] <fyrestrtr> xplic1t: you don't need to compile it.
[08:19] <xplic1t> right, but i need to ./configure --with-xslt
[08:19] <xamox> if I do a apt-get install fluxbox?
[08:19] <Dr_Willis> miranda82,  check out the vnc4server perhaps
[08:19] <scarabatwork> actually... no its isn't.  at least, it doesn't show up anywhere else on my system as running :)
[08:19] <Paddy_EIRE> jrib: e.g. "sudo chmod -r /directory_containing_everything"
[08:19] <Dr_Willis> miranda82,  its a little more tweaked
[08:19] <xamox> how do I run it after its installed?
[08:20] <thenakedcowboy> ok so i downloaded the package (beep media player) how do i install it?
[08:20] <Dr_Willis> xamox,  on the gdm screen should be a session entry for it
[08:20] <justthisguy> xamox: man xinit
[08:20] <miranda82> Dr_Willis, apt-getting
[08:20] <xamox> Dr_Willis, no GDM, used Ubuntu server
[08:20] <B4L1STA> dilupo, okay so here's the next part of the problem: when I try installing from Breezy, i get into the installer fine, it finds the ISO on my harddrive, mount it, but then can't access it.
[08:20] <Dr_Willis> !info beep-media-player
[08:20] <ubotu> beep-media-player: Versatile audio player that supports Winamp skins. In component universe, is optional. Version <IP_ADDRESS>+cvs20050803-1ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 831 kB, installed size 3592 kB
[08:20] <fyrestrtr> xplic1t: there is php4-xslt and php5-xsl pick the one for your version, and install it.
[08:20] <Dr_Willis> thenakedcowboy,  why not just 'sudo apt-get install' the thing ?
[08:20] <Paddy_EIRE> jrib: is that correct
[08:20] <Rick-uk> Hi - can anyone tell me howto get BBC news / video going - it keeps asking for realplayer but I belive there is a way of getting it to work with mplayer?
[08:21] <jrib> Paddy_EIRE: no, that won't do what you want.  capital -R is needed, and you need a permission to set.  So: chmod -R 777 /path/to/foo  for example.  This is usually a bad idea to do and if you do it in the wrong locatino, you can break your box.  What are you chmod'ing that you need sudo?
[08:21] <fyrestrtr> Rick-uk: you need the mplayer browser plugin.
[08:21] <justthisguy> xamox: you need to mofify your xinitrc
[08:21] <DiLupo> brb
[08:21] <xamox> justthisguy, what if I don't want it to start by default?
[08:21] <xplic1t> thank you fyrestrtr, this has taken an embarrassingly long time to resolve
[08:21] <Rick-uk> how do |I get that? sorry - very new to Unix
[08:21] <xamox> justthisguy, isn't there just some startflux or something?
[08:21] <justthisguy> xamox: that depends on the runlevel you boot into
[08:21] <xamox> justthisguy, runlvl 3
[08:22] <thenakedcowboy> Dr. willis: how do i do that? im new at this?
[08:22] <justthisguy> what you put into your xinitrc is exec startfluxbox at the end, iirc
[08:22] <Dr_Willis> last i tried fluxbox - it put a Entry in the GDM session list - if not -  make one for it.
[08:22] <justthisguy> xamox: I think it needs to be runlevel 2 to stay in console automatically
[08:22] <Dr_Willis> thenakedcowboy,  fire up synaptic and search for it or read up on the apt-get system  , sudo apt-get install WHATEVER
[08:22] <Dr_Willis> thenakedcowboy,  and the package name is 'beep-media-player' it seems
[08:23] <Paddy_EIRE> jrib I mounted an external hdd but could only access at the time as root so i used "gksudo nautilus" to get my old windows files(music,pics and the like) although when I copied them to "my" home directory they are still only readable/writable by root
[08:23] <miranda82> Dr_Willis, just got X11 and, again no scaling (connection lost... :S)
[08:23] <xamox> anyone know what apt-get source I need to get fluxbox?
[08:23] <fyrestrtr> Paddy_EIRE: you need to chown the files to your user and group, then chmod them to 755
[08:23] <sureshot> hay i followed the !ati on how to install the fglrx driver it says it is using the fglrx driver in the xconf but when i do fglrxinfo it says mesa what am i doing wrong
[08:24] <Paddy_EIRE> fyrestrtr: err
[08:24] <fyrestrtr> sureshot: are you running xgl?
[08:24] <justthisguy> xamox: should be by default. perhaps universe?
[08:24] <sureshot> it say so but with mesa instad of fglrx
[08:24] <miranda82> Dr_Willis, i will try x11vnc, thx
[08:24] <akemi> how can I get ahold of the dmesg when I'm booting the ubuntu desktop live cd .. it hangs just after attaching to an sda device... and I cant see the whole dmesg
[08:24] <Paddy_EIRE> fyrestrtr: what is chown and what is the number 755 all baout
[08:24] <Paddy_EIRE> *about
[08:25] <jrib> Paddy_EIRE: I see, that's ok then.  Just making sure we weren't going to have another case of a chmod -R on /etc :)
[08:25] <Paddy_EIRE> k, :)
[08:25] <tdn> Which kernel should I install linux-686 or linux-686-smp if I have an IBM Thinkpad with Intel Pentium M?
[08:25] <sureshot> is sys renderer string mesa glx
[08:25] <Dr_Willis> miranda82,  that one is a very odd vncserver. :P
[08:26] <tdn> Is it true that I need SMP support if I want cpu frequency scaling?
[08:26] <fyrestrtr> Paddy_EIRE: chown is 'change owner' -- it changes ownership of files. When you copied them as root, they are owned by root (which is why you can't access them as your normal user). chmod is 'change mode' which is akin to changing permissions. 755 are good permissions for the files in your home directory.
[08:26] <Dr_Willis> miranda82,  there may be some vncserver option to enable that feature. checkthe vncserver script perhaps
[08:26] <xamox> justthisguy, ahh thx, I didn't have universe source uncommented in my source list
[08:26] <miranda82> Dr_Willis, yeah, that is what i try... but... no luck... can't find anything
[08:26] <Paddy_EIRE> fyrestrtr: nice one :)
[08:26] <justthisguy> tdn: depends if you have one or more processors
[08:26] <dyn-afk> tdn the 686 kernel works fine
[08:26] <robert_> tdn: Pentium suxxx0rz
[08:26] <justthisguy> if you have more than one you want the smp
[08:27] <tdn> justthisguy, well.. I don't. But I think that there is something that I will need SMP for...  Thanks.
[08:27] <dyn-afk> pentium m is one of the best procs :)
[08:27] <robert_> tdn: indeed :P
[08:27] <jrib> Paddy_EIRE: yes, since your files are owned by root
[08:27] <dyn-afk> better then the AMD equivalent though
[08:28] <Paddy_EIRE> k
[08:28] <robert_> tdn: I prefer AMD to Intel
[08:28] <fyrestrtr> Paddy_EIRE: yes -- not because your files are owned by root, but because chown can only be run by root :)
[08:28] <justthisguy> akemi: run dmesg | less or use shift+pageup keys
[08:28] <xamox> anyone know if ubuntu has mysql administrator (the GUI version) in it's package list?
[08:28] <wwwdotcom> I was able to get ubuntu loaded on a powerpc, and I was wondering if there were any existing things when the desktop loads that don't need to be loaded and how to disable them
[08:28] <akemi> just .. thanks a bunch :)
[08:28] <Dr_Willis> wwwdotcom,  the default ubuntuinstall is rather slim
[08:28] <ebel> Eh? darcs (a version control tool) is in the universe repository according to: http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/edgy/devel/darcs, but when I do "sudo aptitude search darcs" nothing is found
[08:29] <justthisguy> xamox: yeah I think its called mysql-admin
[08:29] <Dr_Willis> wwwdotcom,  you could switch to a lighter window manager if you want to really save on cpu/memory
[08:29] <wwwdotcom> Dr, you mean theme?
[08:29] <justthisguy> and theres another program mysqladmin, which is confusing :)
[08:29] <ebel> .. and I have the universe repository added and I've aptitude update-ed.
[08:29] <kurt> Hi
[08:29] <Paddy_EIRE> fyrestrtr: Is there anything that I could/should add to this "sudo chown /home/patrick/externalhddfiles"
[08:29] <xamox> justthisguy, yeah there is the console version and the GUI version
[08:29] <kurt> can somebody help me with installing my DCP 110 brother printer
[08:30] <dyn-afk> ebel try searching for that darcs package
[08:30] <robert_> bah, I still get "missing package name"
[08:30] <dyn-afk> the name might be slightly different
[08:30] <jmitchj> Could someone help me with the use of the normalize-mp3 command, in order rto convert MP3 to OGG...it seems to require to encoders and decoders...how do i get those?
[08:30] <fyrestrtr> Paddy_EIRE: yeah, username and group, as the way you have written is not with proper syntax.
[08:30] <dyn-afk> sudo apt-cache search darcs << try that in a terminal ebel
[08:30] <ebel> dyn-afk, no, I get nothing returned.
[08:30] <xamox> if I just installed ubuntu server, and fluxbox, it's complaining I need Xserver, so do I do an apt-get install Xorg or x11?
[08:30] <wetduck> brb
[08:30] <Paddy_EIRE> fyrestrtr: how should it look, I have no idea
[08:30] <robert_> "dpkg-deb: parse error, in file `php4-4.4.2/DEBIAN/control' near line 9:missing package name" <-- bah
[08:30] <fyrestrtr> Paddy_EIRE: sudo chown -R patrick:patrick /home/patrick/externalhddfiles
[08:31] <Paddy_EIRE> nice one
[08:31] <ebel> dyn-afk, I assume apt-cache search is the same as aptitude search, right?
[08:31] <justthisguy> jmitchj: youre probably better off googling for a tutorial, but try gstreamer and it's plugins. You can get a nice graphical interface for it too
[08:31] <Rick-uk> OK I have the mplayer plugin .tar.gz - now what do I do?
[08:31] <wwwdotcom> jmitchj, try this program http://www.erightsoft.com/SUPER.html
[08:31] <bsdfox> how can I get mencoder to not mess with the resolution at all (it's squishing widescreens into 4:3 full height)
[08:32] <fyrestrtr> Rick-uk: you can get the instructions from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[08:32] <justthisguy> xamox: choose, I think. I think ubuntu uses xorg by default, so you might want to go with that one ( ie better support)
[08:32] <jmitchj> thanks
[08:32] <Rick-uk> thanks - I'll try that then
 dyn-afk, I assume apt-cache search is the same as aptitude search, right? << could be, I don't use aptitude
[08:33] <robert_> blaaaah, how do I compile a debian package from source?
[08:33] <ebel> dyn-afk, Hmm, anyway no luck with apt-cache anyway.
[08:33] <dyn-afk> it's just a command to search throught the apt repository cache, so if aptitude search does the same thing...
[08:33] <justthisguy> robert_: checkinstall
[08:33] <mjo-uk> I have a mysql question: has anyone built a Ubuntu compatible .deb of a mysqld more recent that 5.0.21-3 ?
[08:33] <fyrestrtr> ebel: what are you trying to find?
[08:33] <justthisguy> robert_: make normally, then run it instead of make install
[08:33] <dyn-afk> he is looking for darcs fyrestrtr
[08:33] <wwwdotcom> jm, sorry, doesn't look like ogg is supported
[08:33] <fyrestrtr> !info darcs
[08:33] <ubotu> darcs: an advanced revision control system. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.5-3 (dapper), package size 1053 kB, installed size 3280 kB
[08:33] <wwwdotcom> isn't I mean
[08:33] <dyn-afk> he could try subversion (which is called svn mostly) instead of darcs though
[08:33] <ebel> Hang on, looks like there's some trouble updating the universe repo.
[08:33] <fyrestrtr> enable universe, hit apt-get update, then apt-get install darcs
[08:33] <tekuto> i haven't sound on my 6.06lts. who can help? (private)
[08:34] <ebel> MD5sum mismatch.
[08:34] <Paddy_EIRE> fyrestrtr: is this next and where does the 755 go sry "sudo chmod -r patrick:patrick /home/patrick/externalhddfiles"
[08:34] <dyn-afk> that doesn't work for him fyrestrtr
[08:34] <justthisguy> !info checkinstall >> robert_
[08:34] <ubotu> checkinstall: installation tracker. In component universe, is optional.  I'm wanting to run a script in cron as root, but it involves pinging a university server so I want to get it right! ;-) I'm planning to run:
[08:35] <wall0159> #sudo crontab -e
[08:35] <wall0159> and adding a line
[08:35] <wall0159> */12 * * * * script.sh
[08:35] <wall0159> which I think will run the script every 12 minutes. Is this right?
[08:36] <clusty> i am getting some weird behaviours sometimes after I write with windows: ubuntu start to check partition for consistancy
[08:36] <Dr_Willis> clusty,  i use that all the time
[08:36] <mjo-uk> wall0159, why does it have to be done as root ?
[08:36] <jmitchj> wwwdotcom: was that Super product for linux?...it seems like it's a windows based product?
[08:36] <fyrestrtr> wall0159: no, its not. [1]  use a pastebin when you are pasting to the channel. [2]  give the full path to the script, make sure its executable.
[08:36] <Dr_Willis> clusty,  if windows crashes the linux partitions are marked as needing tobe checked from what ive sen
[08:37] <wall0159> mjo-uk: I need sudo, because it will call vpnc
[08:37] <clusty> Dr_Willis, any corruption danger there?
[08:37] <dyn-afk> clusty that IFS EXT2 (not 3) drivers works nice, it also works for ext3 beause that simply is ext2 with a journal
[08:37] <wall0159> fyrestrtr: apologies - I don't know about pastebin - I'll check it out.
[08:37] <Dr_Willis> not that ive se
[08:37] <Dr_Willis> seen
[08:37] <Dr_Willis> :P
[08:37] <pwk> Hello
[08:37] <dyn-afk> the driver however does not do anything with the permissions of a file
[08:37] <pwk> anybody her use skype ?
[08:37] <fyrestrtr> !pastebin > wall0159
[08:38] <dyn-afk> pwk has sound problems with skype ?
[08:38] <clusty> dyn-afk, dont really care about permission. I would really like the driver to update the journaling info
[08:38] <pwk> i can only get it to call in my location, canada
[08:38] <pwk> with free calling
[08:38] <pwk> i thoguht it was free long distance anywhere
[08:38] <dyn-afk> it doesn't do that clusty because it doesn't have journaling support
[08:38] <fyrestrtr> no, only in the US and Canada.
[08:39] <spiekey> is there a mass deployment and patch project?
[08:39] <wall0159> fyrestrtr: but yes.. I'll provide the full path, and ensure that the script has correct permissions.
[08:39] <dyn-afk> it's because ext3 is backwards compatible with ext2 that makes the IFS driver work for ext3
[08:39] <jmitchj> is wwwdotcom still here?
[08:39] <pwk> is there anyother where i can get everyewhere for free ?
[08:39] <spiekey> i dont want to log into 20 boxes via ssh all the time and run upgrade
[08:39] <fyrestrtr> pwk: no, because calls cost money :)
[08:39] <robert_> yo, fyrestrtr
[08:39] <justthisguy> !seen wwwdotcom
[08:39] <ubotu> wwwdotcom is on IRC right now!
[08:39] <tekuto> can someone help with sound? (private)
[08:39] <clusty> dyn-afk, ohhh well. checking 400GB ext2 kinda sux :(
[08:40] <pwk> like call from canada to lebanon ?
[08:40] <dyn-afk> lol @ clusty
[08:40] <fyrestrtr> pwk: yeah, you need to pay for that.
[08:40] <xamox> spiekey, setup each machien to update with cron
[08:40] <unit41> where can I get libasound from ? for 64
[08:40] <pwk> ok
[08:40] <dyn-afk> you can use ext3 checking tools in ubuntu clusty
[08:40] <dyn-afk> why not use those?
[08:40] <pwk> would there be anyother way to commuicate like throyugh the net ?
[08:40] <clusty> dyn-afk, e2fsck?
[08:40] <spiekey> xamox: but then i might miss out upgrade failures and errors
[08:41] <jmitchj> anyone else heard of that erightsoft, Super program?
[08:41] <fyrestrtr> pwk: if the other person has skype, just use computer-to-computer voice chat.
[08:41] <dyn-afk> spiekey wants something like WSUS like windows has but for ubuntu ?
[08:41] <robert_> fyrestrtr: I'm still getting that "missing package name" when I run 'dpkg -b php4-4.4.2'
[08:41] <pwk> Oh
[08:41] <dyn-afk> clusty yes those tools
[08:41] <xamox> spiekey, you could have it e-mail you if it errors out.
[08:41] <spiekey> it should not be automatic, but still be practical.
[08:41] <pwk> how i setup computer to computer vioce chat ?
[08:41] <apecat> hmm, the vmware workstation installer asks me this: "What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running

[08:41] <apecat> what shoudl i answer, the default location doesn't exist on my ubuntu dapper
[08:41] <dyn-afk> np clusty, good luck :)
[08:42] <dyn-afk> apecat did you install your kernel headers ?
[08:42] <dyn-afk> yuo'll need those
[08:42] <apecat> hm, k
[08:43] <dyn-afk> and you need to install checkinstall too
[08:43] <ladydoor> apecat: you need to install linux-headers-(yourarchtype) (so if you've got x386, do linux-headers-386, for 686 linux-headers-686, for k7 linux-headers-k7, etc.)
[08:43] <apecat> yup
[08:43] <dyn-afk> wiki.ubuntu.com has a nice article about vmware workstation btw
[08:43] <dyn-afk> do a search on wiki.ubuntu.com for vmware
[08:43] <dyn-afk> it'll tell you what you need exactly
[08:44] <apecat> okays, iThankyou

[08:46] <wetduck> I am having problem with sudo. If I type sudo on terminal the following line apears: wetduck is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported. Does anybody have an idea about what could be possibly hapening please?
[08:46] <dyn-afk> and that's just ubuntu pwk :P
[08:46] <justthisguy> pwk: and then theres efnet, and all the other servers
[08:46] <pwk> i really want to use linux
[08:46] <fyrestrtr> wetduck: add yourself to the 'admin' group.
[08:46] <dyn-afk> what other users are on your machine wetduck ?
[08:46] <orion2012> wetduck: are you in the admin group?
[08:46] <pwk> i thoughth there was a version of linux that was like windows
[08:46] <wetduck> And besides when I try to run a Share folder command the following line apears: Failed to run shares-admin --add-share=/home/wetduck/Desktop/Shared
[08:46] <wetduck> The underlying authorization mechanism (sudo) does not allow you to run this program. Contact the system administrator.
[08:47] <justthisguy> pwk: its called winspire or something I think
[08:47] <unit41> whats my root pw ?
[08:47] <wetduck> I don't think I am in admin group.
[08:47] <fyrestrtr> !root > unit41
[08:47] <pwk> is unbuntu the best linux version ?
 i thoughth there was a version of linux that was like windows << that's like saying there is a guy that's like a girl both mentally als physically :X
[08:47] <wetduck> How do I create an admin group?
[08:47] <lincsie> hi! I have problems with the ATI fglrx driver, can anyone help me ? Specifically, I installed the driver, I've the fglrx kernel module loaded and in the Device Section of xorg.conf it uses the "fglrx" driver. However, I do not have direct rendering, the error is "Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0"". Also note that OpenGL is from libmesa and not from ati.
[08:47] <justthisguy> unit41: sudo passwd. Pick one :)
[08:47] <fyrestrtr> wetduck: its already in the system, just add yourself to it.
[08:47] <orion2012> wetduck: do you have administrative access to the box?
[08:47] <xamox> pwk, best is a personal opinion
[08:47] <pwk> i know, sorry...
[08:47] <dyn-afk> unit41 you don't have a root password, use sudo instead
[08:48] <pwk> Laughing Out Loud
[08:48] <xamox> pwk, it's probably the best for new users
[08:48] <pwk> ok
[08:48] <xamox> pwk, personally I like gentoo the best
[08:48] <fyrestrtr> lincsie: enable the dri module.
[08:48] <xamox> pwk, but it's a bitch to setup
[08:48] <xamox> pwk, I like ubuntu cause i can just install and go
[08:48] <dyn-afk> gentoo is like freebsd but with a linux kernel
[08:48] <wetduck> orion2012, yes.
[08:49] <xamox> gentoo is nice because it's not a fork
[08:49] <lincsie> fyrestrtr: by adding "Load "dri"" in my xorg.conf ?
[08:49] <wetduck> How do I add myself to it?
[08:49] <dyn-afk> xamox technically gentoo is a fork from freebsd
[08:49] <orion2012> wetduck: usermod -G admin -a wetduck
[08:49] <dyn-afk> they really want to be like freebsd but on a linux kernel
[08:49] <xamox> dyn-afk, I don't think so, it uses portage, which is based on freebsd ports
[08:49] <fyrestrtr> lincsie: yes.
[08:49] <justthisguy> lincsie: I think it has to be in the right section, look for the other loads
[08:49] <dyn-afk> it's like NexentaOS (which is opensolaris with ubuntu as userland)
[08:50] <clusty> freebsd is coolest OS i saw so far. slight trouble with hardware support :(
[08:50] <dyn-afk> I think it was on their website xamox
[08:50] <orion2012> wetduck: if you can't sudo though, you'll need root access or someone else in the admin group to add you
[08:50] <dyn-afk> freebsd is nice yes, but not as a desktop os, that's where you want to put ubuntu :P
[08:50] <lincsie> fyrestrtr: It's already there
[08:50] <dyn-afk> wetduck what was the username you entered during the ubuntu installation ?
[08:51] <lincsie> justthisguy: it's loaded, I'll have a look at the Xorg logfile
[08:51] <dyn-afk> you'll want to log in as that account
[08:51] <unit41> im missing libasound where can i get it ?
[08:51] <clusty> well i am afraid that ubuntu will turn into a redhat/fedora thing
[08:51] <unit41> I need lmms to work
[08:51] <justthisguy> clusty: how so?
[08:51] <clusty> all started as just more user friendly linuxes, then they started implemented distro specific soft....
[08:52] <wetduck> orion2012, usermod: unable to lock password file
[08:52] <fyrestrtr> lincsie: add Section "DRI" Mode 0666 EndSection to the file.
[08:52] <clusty> and next step was just having same practices as windows :(
[08:52] <xamox> dyn-afk, actually I just asked in #gentoo, gentoo is linux based
[08:52] <lincsie> fyrestrtr: that's already there as well ..
[08:52] <dyn-afk> clusty ubuntu is just debian but they think they can be more userfriendly and up to date then debian
[08:52] <bXi> dyn-afk: gentoo is not forked from freebsd
[08:52] <fyrestrtr> lincsie: then it should work.
[08:52] <dyn-afk> they also put things back to debian
[08:52] <orion2012> wetduck: like I said, you'll need someone in the admin group to issue that command
[08:52] <wetduck> dyn-afk, Am I afraid the only account set on my Ubuntu is the one I am currently running.
[08:52] <dyn-afk> bXi I know
[08:52] <fyrestrtr> lincsie: are you using xgl?
[08:52] <orion2012> wetduck: what username did you enter when you installed?
[08:52] <dyn-afk> but it somewhat looks like it because gentoo really wants to be like freebsd for the most part
[08:53] <bXi> portage was derived from the ports collection but thats about it
[08:53] <lincsie> fyrestrtr: no
[08:53] <clusty> dyn-afk, actually if you go for testing distro its more ont he cutting eddge :-D
[08:53] <wetduck> orion2012, but I am supposed to be the admin group :oP
[08:53] <dyn-afk> and they do a really good job at that
[08:53] <clusty> my only problem with debian is that it takes me like a week to get all stuff working properly on my laptop
[08:53] <clusty> whereas ubuntu works out of the box
[08:53] <dyn-afk> then you're in trouble wetduck if the current account really is the same one as the install :(
[08:53] <unit41> suse works out of the box too
[08:53] <unit41> most distro's do
[08:53] <godfather> guys g'night
[08:54] <clusty> suse sux hard :(
[08:54] <orion2012> wetduck: try "grep admin /etc/group" and see who _is_ in the admin group
[08:54] <clusty> its bulky as hell
[08:54] <dyn-afk> same here clusty: ubuntu is just easy to use compared to debian, takes less work to get things working
[08:54] <godfather> i have to find the router web configuration tool
[08:54] <wetduck> dyn-afk, I did install as oem account and today I changes to my official acount and that all I have.
[08:54] <godfather> where is it?
[08:54] <dyn-afk> ah
[08:54] <dyn-afk> I think I had that same problem wetduck
[08:54] <unit41> if its so much less work why am I straining to find libasound lib for my lmms install
[08:54] <clusty> dyn-afk, btw is it possible to install debian packages under ubuntu?
[08:54] <dyn-afk> wish I could remember what I did to make it work...
[08:55] <clusty> never tried :)
[08:55] <dyn-afk> clusty that's what the other repositories are for :P
[08:55] <godfather> i have to open some ports
[08:55] <godfather> could anyone help me?
[08:55] <wetduck> orion2012, I got lpadmin:x:106:wetduck
[08:55] <wetduck> admin:x:112:
[08:55] <dyn-afk> if you want a skype version that has working audio you'll want to install version 1.3beta
[08:55] <unit41> point me to a package repo
[08:55] <dyn-afk> 1.3beta is only available for debian and some other distro's
[08:55] <clusty> godfather, by router you mean a linux box or a wireless thingy?
[08:55] <dyn-afk> I installed the debian version and it just works :)
[08:56] <godfather> ilinux box
[08:56] <orion2012> wetduck: and you didn't enable the root account?
[08:56] <godfather> let me expalin
[08:56] <godfather> ia heve to use my webcam with amsn
[08:56] <robert_> blah
[08:56] <orion2012> wetduck: if not, you'll have to booth the livecd to fix it
[08:56] <wetduck> orion2012, Mmmm not sure, how?
[08:56] <godfather> it give me an error massage
[08:56] <orion2012> wetduck: boot*
[08:56] <godfather> it tells that i'm behind a router or firewalled
[08:56] <godfather> so the amsn faq
[08:56] <unit41> would anyone be able to help me find libasound for my lmms install, I really would like to get this working.... is there anykind of package manager that just resolves all the depandancy's for me ?
[08:57] <godfather> invite me to open some ports
[08:57] <clusty> godfather, guess you are not using firewall
[08:57] <wetduck> orion2012, what does that line says?
[08:57] <lincsie> fyrestrtr: I found an error in the Xorg logfile: (WW) fglrx(0): * DRI initialization failed!     (WW) fglrx(0): * (maybe driver kernel module missing or bad)      However, the kernel module is loaded .
[08:57] <x_O> I am getting this error : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25219/  while trying to run
[08:57] <marshall> unit41, maybe try sudo apt-get -f install
[08:57] <godfather> clusty
[08:57] <themadscotsman> hello i have a question about Edgy Beta
[08:57] <clusty> godfather, just try to open up in a web browser the ip of your router
[08:57] <marshall> themadscotsman, hmm?
[08:57] <godfather> to be honest i don't know
[08:57] <x_O> Tried running apt-get install -f, and I get this error : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25219/ can anyone take a look?
[08:57] <clusty> godfather, your gateway usually
[08:57] <lincsie> fyrestrtr: but lsmod shows me that it is unused ... "fglrx                 407372  0"
[08:58] <klokan> Hi! On my powerbook G4 (TiBook), 550Mhz suspend is not running. Where should I read? Thanks
[08:58] <justthisguy> godfather: its probably easiest actually to install a firewall and use that to open the ports amsn wants :)
[08:58] <godfather> oka router
[08:58] <fyrestrtr> lincsie: rebuild your module.
[08:58] <klokan> (I have dapper)
[08:58] <godfather> ok
[08:58] <unit41> says could not find package
[08:58] <godfather> but how can i open a port?
[08:58] <klokan> Or is there some special group for powerpc?
[08:58] <x_O> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25219/ what does this mean. anyone..
[08:58] <lincsie> fyrestrtr: I installed the module from the ubuntu restricted-modules package
[08:59] <xamox> what is a fast ubuntu mirror?
[08:59] <godfather> i need t find a router web configuration
[08:59] <clusty> justthisguy: but if he has a router that blocks the port its useless to do it from his machine
[08:59] <justthisguy> godfather: depends on the firewall, but most are pretty selfexplanatory
[08:59] <Focuz_> goodbye i 'm going to rome
[08:59] <fyrestrtr> lincsie: re-install it, and make sure you also install your kernel header packages.
[08:59] <themadscotsman> box boots but opens up black screen....if i press any key i get tty1....then i press ctrl+alt+F7 i get log-in screen
[08:59] <ic3mangr> is there an ubuntu full dvd set with all the packages as debian linux have?
[08:59] <lincsie> fyrestrtr: ok, I'll reinstall it
[08:59] <justthisguy> clusty: most routers leave things open by default though, it seems unlikely its that
[08:59] <orion2012> wetduck: boot the livecd, it should automount your hard drive. then you can edit /etc/group by hand and add your username after admin:x:112:
[09:00] <x_O> Anyone smart enough in here to know wtf this crap means : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25219/

[09:01] <manmadha> can any one give the FM links for indian music????
[09:01] <ic3mangr> is there an ubuntu full dvd set with all the packages as debian linux have?
[09:01] <justthisguy> homerh_h: x seems to break when distupgrading sometimes. Try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

 how to get log-in screen w/o ctrl+alt+F7 << boot the machine??
[09:01] <sparkleytone> is there a curses-based web browser that can do javascript?
[09:01] <ladydoor> !repeat
[09:01] <ubotu> Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly, if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[09:02] <orion2012> sparkleytone: w3m
[09:02] <manmadha> dyn-afk, ctrl+alt+backspace
[09:02] <sparkleytone> thx orion2012
[09:02] <sparkleytone> hopefully this will make me sane again
[09:02] <TheLance> hello
[09:02] <ladydoor> sparkleytone: you might like conkeror
[09:02] <justthisguy> manmadha: if you want streamed web music, try out streamtuner
[09:02] <TheLance> can someone please help me and show me how to add a 1440X900 resolution in ubuntu?
[09:02] <ladydoor> sparkleytone: if you're not in console-only...it's a firefox extension that makes it 100% keyboard-driven :-)
[09:02] <gemeindebau> hello all, i do have that annoying jmicron pata chip mainboard problem, with my cd-rom port connected to it. now i happen to have an usb cdrom but that does not work either. i suppose i need to disable the jmicron chip as a boot option, but can anybody please point me to a resource on how-to disable that port before installing? thank you
[09:03] <sparkleytone> i am in console only
 dyn-afk, ctrl+alt+backspace << no that would be a restart for the X server
[09:03] <Blissex> !x
[09:03] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type this in a console: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  -  To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[09:03] <ladydoor> sparkleytone: oh. well good for you! escape the extra fluff
[09:03] <themadscotsman> hey homerh.....try pressing ctrl+alt+F7....it might give you log-in screen
[09:03] <manmadha> dyn-afk, yaa
[09:03] <justthisguy> TheLance: easiest way is dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, but you go through some other questions too, defaults are usally fine
[09:03] <ebel> I've fixed my problem from earlier.
[09:03] <orion2012> sparkleytone: it's really basic and bleeding edge JS support, but it might work for you
[09:03] <sparkleytone> ladydoor: exactly...my servers have no business running X11
[09:03] <xamox> what is a fast ubuntu mirror?
[09:04] <ebel> I did a aptitude dist-upgrade, rebooted and now apt can update with no errors and I've installed darcs.
[09:04] <robert_> blah, I can't get php4-cgi to install
[09:04] <sparkleytone> ladydoor: its all due to oracle requiring javascript just to download 10g
[09:04] <ebel> Dunno what it was, but it's fixed now.
[09:04] <justthisguy> xamox: generally I pick the one closest to my country
[09:04] <TheLance> k i'll try it and see how it works
[09:04] <xamox> justthisguy, I tried, it's crawling, 20kbps
[09:04] <ladydoor> sparkleytone: what is oracle, if i may ask?
[09:04] <lincsie> fyrestrtr: ok, it's reinstalled ...
[09:04] <fyrestrtr> lincsie: now reboot.
[09:04] <sparkleytone> dammit...uknown URI
[09:04] <sparkleytone> doesn't work
[09:04] <lincsie> fyrestrtr: ok, see you then .. :)
[09:05] <sparkleytone> ladydoor: oracle 10g is an enterprise database server
[09:05] <xamox> what is the filesize of the latest i386 desktop iso?
[09:05] <TheLance> yeah is there a way i can edit the resolution file?
[09:05] <xamox> I have a local mirror but I think the file is bad, when I try to burn it, it's complaining
[09:05] <TheLance> i forgot where it was?
[09:05] <ladydoor> sparkleytone: aha...no wonder i'd heard of it.
[09:05] <TheLance> i dont want to mess with all these other settings
[09:06] <orion2012> xamox: check the releases page
[09:06] <ladydoor> TheLance: you mean /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[09:06] <xamox> the desktop iso is smaller than the server iso to, should that be?
[09:06] <themadscotsman> homerh you there
[09:06] <TheLance> yeah
[09:06] <orion2012> xamox: checksums are on there
[09:06] <justthisguy> TheLance: what ladydoor said :)
[09:06] <thedash> would there be any easyish way to display any differences between two directories?
[09:06] <TheLance> whats the terminal code to edit it?
[09:06] <sparkleytone> TheLance: res options are at the end...just put them in preferred order under the bitdepth you are using
[09:06] <adam0509> hello ! got a problem installing a deb package : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25220/
[09:06] <sparkleytone> TheLance: use nano
[09:06] <justthisguy> ladydoor: youre away
[09:06] <ladydoor> justthisguy: nu-uh
[09:07] <ladydoor> TheLance: sudo nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:07] <justthisguy> I just got an away message from you. strange
[09:07] <sparkleytone> i don't believe imagemagick is a command
[09:07] <orion2012> adam0509: #ubuntu-fr might be better able to help
[09:07] <TheLance> thanks
[09:07] <andriijas> someone told me how to switch default sound card in ubuntu some week ago, i forgot the commando. can anyone give me a hint please?
[09:07] <ladydoor> TheLance: but FIRST do sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak
[09:07] <unit41> how do you install a deb package from shell ?
[09:07] <themadscotsman> never mind...i'll just use ctrl+alt+F7 to get log-in screen
[09:07] <fyrestrtr> !alsa > andriijas
[09:07] <ladydoor> sparkleytone: no, it's a package that comes with many sub-programs
[09:07] <justthisguy> unit41: thats on your computer or on the net?
[09:07] <orion2012> !dpkg
[09:07] <ubotu> dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit.
[09:07] <ladydoor> unit41: sudo aptitude install packagename
[09:07] <unit41> on my computer
[09:08] <adam0509> orion2012 => no one answers me, seems they can't help me...
[09:08] <sparkleytone> adam0509: you need to run one of the programs...
[09:08] <sparkleytone> adam0509: i answered you
[09:08] <justthisguy> unit41: dpkg -i , but you have to resolv the dependencies manually
[09:08] <ladydoor> unit41: or you can do just sudo aptitude to get an interface. or you can search with apt-cache search packagename
[09:08] <sparkleytone> adam0509: imagemagick itself is not a program, but a package name
[09:08] <adam0509> ah...
[09:08] <fyrestrtr> adam0509: the command you want is 'convert'
[09:08] <fyrestrtr> adam0509: man convert
[09:08] <wetduck> :o)
[09:08] <sparkleytone> yeah convert
[09:09] <sparkleytone> that's right
[09:09] <adam0509> no no, I'm just looking for cool programs for light painting, cause gimp is too heavy
[09:09] <ladydoor> TheLance: diff dir1 dir2
[09:09] <orbital04> jj
[09:09] <adam0509> so, If I understand, in source-forge, you got programs, and you got simple package too ???
[09:09] <thedash> is there a way to compare the contents of two folders?
[09:09] <fyrestrtr> adam0509: sudo apt-get install gpaint
[09:10] <ladydoor> TheLance: ignore that
[09:10] <ladydoor> TheLance: diff dir1 dir2
[09:10] <dyn-afk> how about tuxpaint adam0509 ?
[09:10] <lincsie> fyrestrtr: hmm, still doesn't work, nothing changed ;(
[09:10] <adam0509> fyrestrtr, => no, that crap is not supported till 2002 ;)
[09:10] <ladydoor> TheLance: ignore that too...sorry
[09:10] <adam0509> dyn-afk => tuxpaint is for kid
[09:10] <ladydoor> thedash: diff dir1 dir2
[09:10] <justthisguy> thedash: <ladydoor> TheLance: diff dir1 dir2
[09:10] <dyn-afk> it's easy though adam0509 :P
[09:10] <ladydoor> justthisguy: thank you
[09:10] <justthisguy> np :)
[09:10] <adam0509> I found only two good program : xpaint and XnView
[09:10] <TheLance> how do I save the edits?
[09:10] <ladydoor> justthisguy: i always kind of expect that when i hit tab i'll get the right name
[09:10] <TheLance> im using edgy efy
[09:10] <ladydoor> TheLance: control-o
[09:10] <dyn-afk> you can try a vector graphics drawing tool like sodipodi or inkscape
[09:11] <adam0509> ?
[09:11] <dyn-afk> but I think those are at the same level as the gimp, so maybe not for you adam0509
[09:11] <ladydoor> TheLance: ...why are you using the development release? unless you're already familiar with linux it's a BAD IDEA to use nonstable releases
[09:11] <adam0509> ...
[09:11] <TheLance> yeah i have no idea what im doing
[09:11] <adam0509> Gimp is not only difficult its heavy dyn-afk
[09:11] <TheLance> it was a bad idea to use edgy eft
[09:11] <adam0509> got XFCE with pentium III
[09:11] <ladydoor> justthisguy: and as to the away thing--i forget to put up away messages when i'm gone and forget to take them down when i'm back
[09:12] <TheLance> ok lets try this out
[09:12] <TheLance> brb
[09:12] <justthisguy> ladydoor: hehe yeah I know what you mean :)
[09:12] <dyn-afk> I'm running The GIMP on a celeron 700 MHz with 384 MB of ram..it runs nice, so not heavy
[09:12] <ossie> #xgl
[09:12] <adam0509> Ergh ! 384 MB RAM !
[09:12] <adam0509> got only 192
[09:13] <justthisguy> yeah, rams more inportant than cpu for gimp
[09:13] <dyn-afk> minus some ram because of the onboard video
[09:13] <adam0509> and I'm not only looking programs for me, I'm looking for program for the community :]
[09:13] <andriijas> is there nobody here that knows the commando to switch default soundcard?
[09:13] <dyn-afk> but 192MB is really tiny nowadays :P
[09:13] <adam0509> I already updated the french wiki aboutt xpaint gpaint and XnView
[09:13] <dyn-afk> how about sodipodi and inkscape ?
[09:14] <justthisguy> andriijas: depends if youre running alsa, oss ,etc
[09:14] <adam0509> 192MB for a pentium III 533 was a good thing in old times ;)
[09:14] <andriijas> justthisguy: alsa
[09:14] <adam0509> inkscape is a vectorial program
[09:14] <andriijas> justthisguy: or ubuntu default
[09:14] <TheLance> thank you all
[09:14] <adam0509> sodipodi ? okay i'm gonna try !
[09:14] <TheLance> it works
[09:14] <dyn-afk> sodipodi is also vector graphics
[09:14] <dyn-afk> there really isn't much else
[09:14] <justthisguy> andriijas: try getting alsa-tools ( or something like that ) and it should have programs to do it for you, I think
[09:14] <Spootnick> hello
[09:14] <Spootnick> what is the url for the hardware requirements for ubuntu
[09:14] <adam0509> :'[[[[[[[[
[09:14] <dyn-afk> and besides, The GIMP is an image manipulation program, not a drawing program
[09:14] <TheLance> yeah i had to reformat after last night too the computer messed up the upgrade for some reason
[09:15] <TheLance> so i had to reformat this morning
[09:15] <dyn-afk> try the release notes Spootnick
[09:15] <TheLance> and install edgy eft
[09:15] <Spootnick> i remember seeing something online that listed all the laptops that ubuntu has been tested on
[09:15] <justthisguy> dyn-afk: its ok for drawing, not like a proper painting program tho
[09:15] <adam0509> dyn-afk => know a program called "photo filtre" for windows ? This one is really perfect !!
[09:15] <dyn-afk> release notes are available at the downloadpage from ubuntu.com
[09:15] <andriijas> justthisguy: i have but i dont remember the commando
[09:15] <dyn-afk> photofiltre is nice for image manipulation yeah
[09:15] <dyn-afk> lot's of pro's use it :)
[09:16] <adam0509> Spootnick,  => hardware requirement : if you're PC got USB port, then go on :)
[09:16] <adam0509> hhh
[09:16] <sparkleytone> ladydoor: any other console based browsers that can do jscript?

[09:16] <ladydoor> sparkleytone: not that i know of--sorry.
[09:16] <dopry> just a quick question, is the edgy beta relatively stable?
[09:17] <ladydoor> sparkleytone: i'm not sure whether or not elinks does or not
[09:17] <ladydoor> dopry: ask in #ubuntu+1
[09:17] <Spootnick> adam0509 i am looking at installing it on a Toshiba Tecra S1 notebook
[09:17] <dopry> ladydoor, thanks.
[09:17] <adam0509> If I was knowing coding, I could ask him the source and devellop a linux-version
[09:17] <Spootnick> ill priv msg you the specs...tell me what you think
[09:17] <adam0509> Spootnick, => Wich processor ? Ram ?
[09:17] <Spootnick> Toshiba Tecra S1 Centrino 1.6Ghz/ 512MB/ 40GB HDD/ CDRW+DVD/
[09:17] <Spootnick> WL-802.11G/ 15TFT/ XPP
[09:17] <adam0509> k
[09:17] <adam0509> PFFFFF LOWL
[09:18] <adam0509> you get get easyly ubuntu, don't worry guy :D
[09:18] <Spootnick> i am just about to buy that notebook, thats why before i spend the cash for it
[09:18] <adam0509> I'm running on a PIII, see the difference ? ^^
[09:18] <adam0509> wan't to buy it without windows ? ^^
[09:19] <Spootnick> yes without :-)
[09:19] <zlack> hey guys - anyone know of a good OneNote substitude for linux?
[09:19] <adam0509> then, good luck :]
[09:19] <Spootnick> what do you mean?
[09:19] <dyn-afk> zlack try tomboy notes
[09:19] <adam0509> what you mean by onenote zlack ?
[09:19] <zlack> adam0509: its a ms note application
[09:19] <dyn-afk> there's also a wikiprogram that you can use for things like that
[09:20] <justthisguy> tiddlywiki?
[09:20] <dyn-afk> onenote has support for a tablet but that is something you don't have on ubuntu
[09:20] <adam0509> so, its not like a notepad...?
[09:20] <zlack> dyn-afk: i'll trythe tomboy stuff - thanks!
[09:20] <dyn-afk> well, just tablet support as a mouse, not to write on a screen
[09:20] <justthisguy> ubuntu has tablet support afaik
[09:20] <robbbb> question -> if i have 2 linux pc's - is it possible to 'move' windows from one pc to the other?
[09:20] <dyn-afk> adam0509 no, it's not like notepad
[09:20] <dyn-afk> it's far more then that
[09:20] <zlack> dyn-afk: i just like that note taking idea
[09:20] <adam0509> dyn-afk, => By the way, photo-filtre work with WINE ! But I try to install wine, but it bug at configuration step :/
[09:21] <dyn-afk> it's like a analog notebook: you put al sorts of ideas in it
[09:21] <adam0509> ok
[09:21] <dyn-afk> nice adam0509 :)
[09:21] <homerh_h> no still no joy x-wont start
[09:21] <homerh_h> hiya ppl ive upgraded from dapper to edgy ,but its failed x wont start,ive down graded the xorg-xserver-core and im using nv in gmd but i still getting errors of  xauth: creating new authority file /home/linux1/.serverauth.464
[09:21] <justthisguy> robbbb: I know you can share your mouse and kbrd like that, dont know about windows tho
[09:21] <dyn-afk> zlack if so then you really should try tomboy :P
[09:21] <jsilva> hi
[09:21] <peppo> what is the codename for 6.06?
[09:22] <ladydoor> peppo: dapper drake
[09:22] <zlack> dyn-afk: thanks man
[09:22] <Somniis> hi everyone :-)
[09:22] <robbbb> i mean like in 24 (tv series) where they 'send' windows to another terminal.
[09:22] <dyn-afk> np zlack
[09:22] <Dr_Willis> robbbb,  seen that done with a X program..but its a bit of a hack.
[09:22] <thedash> I am trying to find out the version number of a driver, and I can see a file called /sys/modules/sata_sil/version, but I can't open it or view it or anything?
[09:22] <Somniis> robbbb: it's possible, but it takes a lot more than just "sending" it lol
[09:23] <Dr_Willis> robbbb,  and it takes a little bit of setup
[09:23] <dyn-afk> justthisguy you mean something like synergy?
[09:23] <justthisguy> yup
[09:23] <jsilva> I am trying ubuntu 6.10 and I see that fonts in amsn and others programs look ugly, is it a 6.10 limitation or I forgot something?
[09:23] <dyn-afk> sharing a mouse and keyboard between different machines
[09:23] <robbbb> Dr_Willis: any pointers?
[09:23] <Dr_Willis> syngery letrs youcontroll the other pc's mouse/keyboard
[09:23] <dyn-afk> but you still need to hook up a monitor to each one of them
[09:23] <robbbb> yeah but i want to move a window from one to the other
[09:23] <dyn-afk> zlack you can also try "zim desktop wiki" for you note taking
[09:24] <dyn-afk> and you might want to look at something that is called mindmapping
[09:24] <justthisguy> freemind is pretty cool for notes and brainstorms
[09:24] <Dr_Willis> robbbb,  program name is xmove..and you MUST set up the programs specifically be moveable
[09:24] <dyn-afk> freemind is a really nice mindmapping tool but it isn't in the repositories so you need to download it yourself
[09:24] <dyn-afk> they have debian packages though and they work :)
[09:24] <robbbb> xmove eh. i'll take a look
[09:24] <thedash> how do you close out of a 'view' command in console without saving the file?
[09:24] <adam0509> http://pix.nofrag.com/37/bd/895b18b6486abde1b7608c9a096b.html dyn-afk
[09:25] <dyn-afk> there is one other mindmapping tool and it'sthe only one in the repositories, you can try that one as well, just search for mindmap
[09:25] <dyn-afk> lol adam0509, photofiltre looks even better in linux then in windows :P
[09:25] <peppo> what's up with libdvdcss2 in dapper?
[09:25] <dyn-afk> bbl
[09:25] <dyn-afk> need some coffee
[09:25] <jrib> ubotu: tell peppo about dvd
[09:25] <adam0509> yes, but its the studio version by the way so maybe it has so important differences...
[09:25] <dyn-afk> lack of caffeine :P
[09:28] <ladydoor> thedash: what command? less? it's not an editor
[09:29] <adam0509> I run on standard user linux, but in root mode, It bug... could you believe that ? :)
[09:29] <sterni1971> hello just upgraded to edgy. what is the best way to get compiz?
[09:29] <jrib> sterni1971: try #ubuntu-xgl
[09:29] <ladydoor> adam0509: gee, running into problems running as root...who'd have thunk it?
[09:29] <ladydoor> sterni1971: also, #ubuntu+1 is the edgy channel.
[09:29] <justthisguy> !edgy
[09:29] <sterni1971> thanks!
[09:29] <ubotu> edgy is the current development version of Ubuntu. Version 6.10, codename "Edgy Eft". For support head to #ubuntu+1. For its release schedule, see !schedule
[09:32] <wetduck> onix2012, I think I am on a rescue mode prompt, could you help me from here on please?
[09:33] <Maniqui> hi. I have installed Ubuntu 6.06. Please, how can I install the graphics acceleration for my Ati X700? (I remember I did it in 5.10, but cant remember how)
[09:33] <wetduck> onix2012, are you there?
[09:33] <SpudDogg> kitche!!!!!
[09:33] <thedash> ladydoor:: I typed "view <file>", and it showed the file content, but now I can't figure out how to exit it
[09:33] <SpudDogg> kitche: are you here?  must not be paying attention again :)
[09:33] <ladydoor> thedash: do this:   :q
[09:34] <ladydoor> thedash: view is actually a vim thing--less is better for just viewing files...and you quit it with q
[09:34] <thedash> ladydoor:: he ":" being an atcual colon or some other key that I don't know?
[09:34] <wetduck> Could someone help me to access the file group to try edit it? I don't remeber the path of it...
[09:34] <ladydoor> thedash: an actual colon
[09:34] <adam0509> ladydoor => my ubuntu is very...experimental ! I change many component (processeur, graphic card) and make many craps in configs files I think... That's why I'm waiting for edgy for making a brand new installation ;)
[09:35] <adam0509> and by the way I'll make a benchmark on my computer :}
[09:35] <kitche> SpudDogg yes?
[09:35] <Zaggynl> anyone tried installing defcon in wine with ubuntu?
[09:35] <adam0509> when It was just installed, Firefox was running on 12" seconds, and now, it takes 20" seconds... will see how it changes :)
[09:36] <ladydoor> adam0509: well, good luck!
[09:36] <adam0509> ubuntu roxx tbh !
[09:36] <wetduck> Could someone check where is the location of the file group please ?
[09:36] <adam0509> I still wanted to get on linux but I was scared :D what a fool I was :D
[09:37] <anto9us> wetduck, /etc/group
[09:37] <wetduck> anto9us, ok thank you!
[09:37] <nodey> anyone here knows a any good bandwith monitor besides bwmon ?
[09:38] <mcphail> wetduck: edit it with vigr
[09:38] <adam0509> could someone believe that in the french wiki, we do not have a homepage for audacity ? :[
[09:38] <UbuntuGuy> How can I run aptitude - s install so that it displays the same results as update-manager?
[09:38] <wetduck> mcphail, what is vigr?
[09:38] <mcphail> wetduck: a relatively safe way to edit /etc/group
[09:39] <wetduck> mcphail, but is it vigr or vi?
[09:39] <mcphail> wetduck: vigr
[09:39] <Arrick> hey, if you want a really good laugh, check this site out
[09:39] <Arrick> http://www.crisscross.com/forum/Worlds_worst_hacker%25_IRC_t%20ranscript/m_422436/tm.htm
[09:40] <gnu2it2> where to find amd64/k8 kernels? or do you have to roll your own?
[09:40] <Arrick> I was given the link in Windows and man is it funnnnyyy
[09:40] <SpComb> a better version of that would be to tell them to hack, say, foo.marttila.de. That resolves to <IP_ADDRESS> :)
[09:41] <SpComb> real domain names resolving to localhost is something that I see very rarely, I'm sure it would catch quite a few people by surprise
[09:41] <Arrick> isnt that a nice change from the usual SpComb?
[09:45] <JamieBE> When are we likely to see a version of Flash 9.0 for Ubuntu? - I am tired of seeing this "You need blah blah blah to do such and such"...?
[09:45] <houllamuilla> Hello!
[09:46] <kitche> JamieBE: when Flash9 is made for linux
[09:46] <houllamuilla> I need some help please!
[09:46] <JamieBE> Kitche - When is that likely to happen?
[09:46] <Armstrong80> Im trying to install XMMS which ive had before on this computer with a different distro, but under the add/remove program I get an error saying that its not available in any software channel and that it might not support my architecture. Anyone know whats going on?
[09:46] <farchord> JamieBE: I heard they're releasing sometimes in 2007
[09:47] <Zaggynl> when will the new wine be in the ubuntu rep?
[09:47] <JamieBE> Seriously?! - There'll be a flash 10 by then
[09:47] <farchord> JamieBE: lol they just released 9
[09:47] <JamieBE> Zaggynl - there was a release recently.
[09:47] <JamieBE> Farchord - Lies.
[09:47] <farchord> for now, me, I use Firefox with Flash 9 on Wine
[09:48] <houllamuilla> Some help please!
[09:48] <Zaggynl> JamieBE, err how to get version 0.9.22 ? when I try a apt-get install it says I have the latest
[09:48] <ladydoor> !someone
[09:48] <ubotu> 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?
[09:48] <ladydoor> !ask
[09:48] <wetduck> how do I know the /etc/group file I am accessing is the one on my harddrive
[09:48] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:48] <wetduck> +or is it from the boot cd?
[09:49] <JamieBE> Zaggynl - Are you talking about Wine or Flash?
[09:49] <Zaggynl> Wine
[09:49] <JamieBE> That explains it then :)
[09:49] <Zaggynl> :P
[09:49] <ladydoor> !xmms

[09:49] <kitche> wetduck: there is usually only one group file unless you use some type of encryption
[09:50] <JamieBE> And why doesn't Ubuntu have native support for PPT file editing?
[09:50] <graveson> i have a chronos dvb box and i am looking for some direction on how to configure this and copy my vhs tapes to mpeg files ?
[09:50] <houllamuilla> Does anyone knows how i can update my sources list? every time i want to apt-get something, it tells me it couldnt found it in E:

[09:50] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[09:50] <ladydoor> Armstrong80: try installing it in the console. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install xmms . if it spits out errors, paste them to paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[09:50] <ladydoor> * http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[09:51] <Armstrong80> thank you
[09:51] <ladydoor> JamieBE: um...it does. openoffice something-or-other

[09:51] <graveson> i have a chronos dvb box and i am looking for some direction on how to configure this and copy my vhs tapes to mpeg files ? any direction will help please
[09:51] <ladydoor> JamieBE: and the reason that support had to be reverse-engineered is that microsoft refuses to release their formats
[09:52] <ladydoor> JamieBE: open up openoffice impress, create a presentation, and save it as a powerpoint; then come back and argue with me.
[09:52] <ladydoor> JamieBE: or open one up with it, edit it, and save it.
[09:52] <JamieBE> "Impress" you say??
[09:53] <ladydoor> JamieBE: yes. the openoffice slideshow thing.
[09:53] <JamieBE> ladydoor - I am going to take you up on this challenge and then have your babies if you are right.
[09:53] <ladydoor> JamieBE: now, what i'd like is a command-line tool to do that...
[09:53] <ladydoor> JamieBE: LOL
[09:53] <ska1> hi i'm trying to install dapper with single / on xfs and a swap, but the 6.06-1 live cd fails during the formatting, any tips on avoiding this error?

[09:53] <farchord> Hmmm guys, I have a small problem, when i use my multimedia keyboard's volume control, it changes the Bass instead of the volume, anyone knows how to fix that!?
[09:53] <JamieBE> ladydoor - Command line babies - You are leet huh!?
[09:53] <ladydoor> JamieBE: not...quite what i meant
[09:54] <JamieBE> Close enough
[09:54] <ladydoor> JamieBE: i actually meant to edit powerpoints...but whatevs
[09:54] <kitche> npster: it's allows you to ssh into a machine without a password it's very useful if you don't want to enter a password each time you log in to a machine

[09:55] <npster> kitche I need a ssh key for fedora and I have no idea what to do?
[09:55] <_ali> anybody can help in this topic?
[09:55] <mipstien> im having trouble with my 3d acceleration. direct rendering says it is off and i can't get it to turn on with " sudo nvidia-glx-config enable"
[09:55] <ladydoor> !ndiswrapper

[09:55] <factotum> if i wanted to connect to a shared folder on a mac with os 10.3, would i still use samba for that?
[09:56] <ladydoor> houllamuilla: see ubotu's post
[09:56] <npster> yup
[09:56] <farchord> mipstien: Prolly a kernel update. You might have to repatch yer kernel
[09:56] <JamieBE> ladydoor: I'll be dipped in shi..erbert. That application opened PPT all along! And to think that i was using Java apps with read-only capability. SHOCKING! Thanks ladydoor!!!!
[09:56] <mipstien> farchord: updated to .27 and all modules installed
[09:56] <ladydoor> JamieBE: no problem!
[09:56] <orkid__> mipstien: ubuntuguide.org might be able to help.  make sure you're up to date with 'apt-get update' 'apt-get upgrade'
[09:57] <npster> kitche What should I do so I can get a ssh key for fedora, it says to do this ssh-keygen -t dsa ?
[09:57] <jdahm> by default, does ubuntu have all the ACPI settings enabled?
[09:57] <farchord> mipstien: : at worse, try to reinstall the nvidia drivers
[09:57] <jdahm> Im too lazy to check
[09:57] <JamieBE> ladydoor - Next you are going to tell me that I can compile my VB.NET application for Ubuntu!...... :|
[09:57] <ladydoor> JamieBE: i don't know what that is, sorry
[09:57] <mipstien> farchord: should i uninstall them and reinstall or just reinstall
[09:57] <Armstrong80> ladydoor: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25227/
[09:58] <kitche> npster: http://sial.org/howto/openssh/publickey-auth/ read that should help you out
[09:58] <JamieBE> ladydoor - You must not use Windows much huh?
[09:58] <adam0509> Got a problem with WINE, I install it, seems okay. I run "winecfg", It begin to create a directory, but then, nothing happens !!!
[09:58] <farchord> mipstien: Just reinstall imo....
[09:58] <houllamuilla> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25228/
[09:58] <godfather> is there anyone who could help me to install mercury?
[09:58] <ladydoor> JamieBE: i never really used computers a lot before i got this one last summer...and i never really used it much until i installed ubuntu in October of last year.
[09:59] <JamieBE> adam0509: I had same problem i think - Just delete the ~/.wine dir. and run again.
[09:59] <Somniis> Spring!
[09:59] <adam0509> I've already done that :[ :[
[09:59] <adam0509> gona retry...
[09:59] <JamieBE> So you are STARTING with Unix?
[09:59] <Somniis> ladydoor: good choice to start with :-)
[10:00] <ladydoor> Armstrong80: that's very odd, since it's in main...what's your architecture?
[10:00] <JamieBE> ladydoor: I am envious of your innocent, non-Microsoft tainted soul.
[10:00] <adam0509> houllamuilla,  => got universe/multiverse depository ??
[10:00] <ladydoor> JamieBE: lol
[10:00] <ladydoor> Somniis: what do you mean?
[10:00] <Somniis> ladydoor: most people start with Windows
[10:00] <mipstien> farchord: those things do not work
[10:00] <JamieBE> ladydoor: I think he means Unix for a starter. - It all just makes so much more sense than Windows!
[10:01] <mipstien> manually updateing xorg.conf doesn't seem to work either
[10:01] <Armstrong80> ladydoor: just i386
[10:01] <ladydoor> Somniis: oh, check. i mean, i'd had some minimal exposure when i was in high school, but it never really interested me at all.
[10:01] <kitche> Somniis: most people choose windows due to that they have to they only use what's on their computer to start with
[10:01] <Somniis> JamieBE: yes :)
[10:01] <ladydoor> Armstrong80: yeah, it should definitely exist...i don't know why it doesn't
[10:01] <houllamuilla> i dont know. i installed ubuntu about 5 days ago. i know almost nothing about linux
[10:01] <Somniis> kitche: I agree.  I used Windows for 6 years until I installed Ubuntu a few weeks ago :-)
[10:02] <Armstrong80> ladydoor: would there be another channel or place I could check/ask (thank you very much for the help so far)
[10:02] <ladydoor> Armstrong80: this is pretty much it...let me check your pastebin again.
[10:02] <robbbb> anyone know how xmove works?
[10:02] <adam0509> JamieBE, => still It works a little better ! thanks ! gonna try several things !
[10:02] <JamieBE> ladydoor, Somniis: Personally I feel as though Ubuntu has a long way to go in terms of fine tuning, and making everything easier on the users, but it will be the winner in the long run, when people realise they don't have to pay 200 / $400USD a pop for an OS!
[10:02] <Armstrong80> Can anyone recommend a good alternative to xmms?
[10:03] <farchord> I would use Ubuntu everyday, if only my fav game and TV tuner would work in it lol
[10:03] <Brando> what command do I use to find out my ipaddress?
[10:03] <ladydoor> Armstrong80: would you please paste your sources.list to pastebin?
[10:03] <SpudDogg> kitche, still here?
[10:03] <kitche> Brando: do you mean your external ip or your internel ip?
[10:03] <Somniis> JamieBE: I think Ubuntu is meant to be a "starters" OS into Linux.. and gradually get into more advanced distros
[10:03] <JamieBE> adam0509 - No probs. You might wanna try removing and then updating too (if you haven't already :P) :)
[10:03] <Brandonnn> what command do I use to find out my ipaddress?
[10:03] <kitche> SpudDogg: yes I m here
[10:03] <ladydoor> JamieBE: lol...if you ask me, it's TOO user-friendly
[10:03] <robbbb> ifconfig
[10:03] <kitche> Brandonn: ifconfig|grep ip
[10:03] <Brandonnn> ty
[10:03] <Somniis> ladydoor: I agree lol
[10:03] <ladydoor> JamieBE: it's a lot of work to uninstall gnome and all that stuff i never use
[10:03] <SpudDogg> kitche: so now i just 'sudo modprobe rt2570' ?
[10:04] <kitche> yes SpudDogg
[10:04] <JamieBE> You a KDE girl ladydoor?
[10:04] <Somniis> kde.. pfft.
[10:04] <brian98> Hello all!
[10:05] <Somniis> hi brian98

[10:05] <kitche> npster: did that link help you out any?
[10:05] <npster> yeah
