[15:11] <FiReSTaRT> synthetiq, sudo apt-get install packagename
[15:11] <synthetiq> no
[15:11] <kam00zy> he means how to add the repository
[15:11] <sedontane> FiReSTaRT: it doesnt hanfg
[15:11] <synthetiq> i want to add packages to the repo
[15:11] <sedontane> it just refuses to install it
[15:12] <buch_> gnuyoga: done
[15:12] <iceroot> synthetiq: you can not add a package to a ubuntu-repository, you mean how to add another repo?
[15:12] <zer0> yah..i reboot coz of nvidia glx 180 :(
[15:12] <gnuyoga> buch_: this one right http://pastebin.com/m3234948a
[15:12] <synthetiq> no i want to know how to add to the repo
[15:12] <synthetiq> im a developer
[15:12] <FiReSTaRT> synthetiq, system, administration, software sources, third-party software tab, add button
[15:12] <Qu4R0w> do i nid remove my 180?
[15:12] <buch_> gnuyoga: yes indeed
[15:12] <cabrey> synthetiq, you can become a maintainer
[15:13] <_ruben> synthetiq: #ubuntu-motu would be a good place to start
[15:13] <Qu4R0w> how to use nvidia glx 173??do i nid to remove glx 180?
[15:14] <FiReSTaRT> Qu4R0w, yes.. remove 180, reboot, install 173, reboot.. just make sure that it's available first before removing 180 :P
[15:14] <glaceman> hi there
[15:14] <Qu4R0w> what u mean by available?
[15:14] <gnuyoga> buch_: http://www.aboutdebian.com/dualboot.htm and see the section "Two Hard-Drive Setup"
[15:15] <buch_> gnuyoga: my first HD with window have two partitions - and my linux should have one (without the swap partition)
[15:15] <FiReSTaRT> when you open jockey (the hardware drivers applet), it should give you a list of available drivers.. like in my case nvidia 180, nvidia 173 and broadcom sta
[15:15] <kam00zy> people i need helps on getting my sound to work :)
[15:15] <kam00zy> like it just wont work
[15:15] <glaceman> any guy around for help please ?
[15:15] <kam00zy> i mean like.. i play music and no sound...
[15:15] <kam00zy> u get it :P
[15:15] <FiReSTaRT> Qu4R0w, the ones that are activated have a green circle next to them :)
[15:15] <buch_> gnuyoga: thanks ill try
[15:15] <gnuyoga> kam00zy: which version of ubuntu ?
[15:15] <glaceman> just 2 simple questions
[15:15] <kam00zy> jaunty
[15:15] <gnuyoga> buch_: ping me if u have any problem
[15:15] <Joeseph> kam00zy: Are your speakers plugged in?  Have to ask.....
[15:16] <Qu4R0w> yes n i can see 180=activated n 173 not activate..177 is not there
[15:16] <sedontane> FiReSTaRT: my jockey only has one driver in it
[15:16] <kam00zy> yes yes yes
[15:16] <kam00zy> im running mirc on crossover right now
[15:16] <kam00zy> and for the first time in a week i got beeping to work
[15:16] <kam00zy> it made me happy
[15:16] <glaceman> first of all, im chatting via irssi, and when i log in at any server at first connection, i log on under a certain username, and i wanna change it
[15:16] <FiReSTaRT> Qu4R0w, in that case remove 180 first, reboot, install 173, reboot again
[15:16] <Qu4R0w> ok,i try with 173
[15:16] <FiReSTaRT> glaceman, use the irc command /nick whateveryouwantyournewnicktobe
[15:16] <ha1331> glaceman: want to change the username?
[15:17] <ha1331> or the name in irssi?
[15:17] <kam00zy> nobody gonna help me? :(
[15:17] <kam00zy> im musicless
[15:17] <glaceman> yeah
[15:17]  * kam00zy cries
[15:17] <glaceman> like it's a default username that get automatically when i log in : Mike (my name)
[15:17] <ha1331>  /nick myNewUsernameInIrc
[15:17] <Dr_Willis> !sound
[15:17] <glaceman> i know how to change it via /nick enternickname
[15:18] <Qu4R0w> kam00zy:: someone will reply if they have ur answer
[15:18] <glaceman> but i wanna change the default one
[15:18] <musicpenguin> i was wondering about restricted drivers..do i need them?
[15:18] <FiReSTaRT> glaceman, you may wanna go to the package-specific support channel.. /join #irssi
[15:19] <glaceman> ok
[15:19] <Dr_Willis> Getting sound to 'work' can often be trivial (your mixer is set to mute), or very hard (you may need to upgrade your alsa)
[15:19] <glaceman> another question then
[15:19] <glaceman> anybody uses utube ripper ?
[15:19] <ha1331> glaceman: not sure if it's a lanquage barrier or something, but I'm having really hard time understanding you.
[15:19] <glaceman> FiReSTaRT:  gave me a tip about downloading and installing ffmpeg, wish was necessary for program functions, but now , when i click on a file to convert to audio, it convert automatically, with a 0b size, wish is not readable by media player
[15:20] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin, in some cases yes... for most of the work that i do, the open graphics drivers are fine.. but for something more intensive like google earth, you need the propriatary drivers in most cases.. also wireless networking won't work for some people (myself included) without the broadcom propriatary driver
[15:20] <pbn> Hi there I've got a 8.04 LTS machine on a dial-up connection. I've gotten all the .deb packages to upgrade it on a USB key. How do I install them, other than typing 121 times dpkg -i <packagename>.deb ?
[15:20] <LiHong> glaceman: add some config in .irssi/config
[15:20] <rafaelscj> what app can I use to convet dvd 9 to 5?
[15:20] <gnuyoga> kam00zy: am here to help you ;-)
[15:20] <Dr_Willis> pbn:  dpkg accepts wildcards :)  dpkg -i *.deb   (but that may or may not work)
[15:20] <glaceman> ok LiHong
[15:20] <Pici> LiHong: Please don't suggest to modify the config file by hand.
[15:20] <glaceman> well seriously i think i wont
[15:20] <glaceman> im newbie
[15:21] <gnuyoga> kam00zy: follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
[15:21] <zpx> this is the weirdest damn thing with apache2 not starting up at boot, but it starts perfectly by run after the fact if you run the standard /etc/init.d/apache2 start
[15:21] <pbn> Dr_Willis: thank you but I doubt it would work....
[15:21] <glaceman> 2nd day on ubuntu now, just migrated from microsoft products
[15:21] <zpx> any ideas?
[15:21] <Dr_Willis> I edit my irssi configs all the time. :)
[15:21] <glaceman> :P lol
[15:21] <LiHong> glaceman: ok. so /nick your nick name and /save
[15:21] <indus> !irssi
[15:21] <Pici> Dr_Willis: The irssi devs really don't want you to eb doing that.
[15:21] <Acedip> I'd installed glade 3.6.5 from sources, but in synaptic it says version 3.6.3??
[15:21] <Dr_Willis> pbn:   theres scripts/find command that can do a command for each file in a dir.
[15:21] <glaceman> about utube ripper, anybody used it before ?
[15:21] <DMRadford> linux n00b here with no time... does ubuntu use pulse audio?
[15:21] <pbn> pbn: especially beccause dpkg -i probably won't install them in the right order
[15:21] <indus> DMRadford: yes
[15:21] <musicpenguin> glaceman, where do i get pro drivers?
[15:21] <glaceman> in the .irssi/config ?
[15:21] <pbn> Dr_Willis: yes I can do fin . -name *.deb -exec dpkg -i and so on
[15:21] <Dr_Willis> Pici:  they also expect you to read the docs. :) but no one ever does that either.. heh..
[15:21] <DMRadford> damn....
[15:21] <FiReSTaRT> glaceman, or you can just run xchat.. it should be automatically installed iirc.. if not, sudo apt-get install xchat
[15:21] <DMRadford> thanks...
[15:21] <pbn> but there's package order and dependencies
[15:22] <indus> !mibbit
[15:22] <Acedip> how can I remove something I installed from sources
[15:22] <Acedip> ??
[15:22] <FiReSTaRT> glaceman, a lot easier to configure graphically, especially for those of us who migrated from windoze :)
[15:22] <buch_> gnuyoga: hmm i think im abit lost here - I plan to use grub since it seems easier or? - Cant i just simply point menu.lst or another grub file to point to the other HD?
[15:22] <glaceman> yeah i know FiReSTaRT , but im on ubuntu for commands
[15:22] <Dr_Willis> pbn:  yes.. and if you try to insttall them all at the same single command line. ive found that they 'magically' see each other and reaize the order...
[15:22] <glaceman> i mean if i wannted to stick to GUI, i would have continued using xp
[15:22] <gnuyoga> buch_: do u use windows XP / some other version ?
[15:22] <Dr_Willis> pbn:  but with that huge a # of packages.. it might not work.
[15:22] <LiHong> glaceman: if you do some setting changes in irssi and then /save. the settings will be save to the config file.
[15:22] <pbn> Dr_Willis: ah good
[15:22] <indus> Acedip: see if it has an uninstall script
[15:22] <FiReSTaRT> glaceman, in that case, #irssi should be your best bet for package-specific support :)
[15:23] <glaceman> can anybody tell me, where the irssi conf file located please ?
[15:23] <buch_> gnuyoga: I use XP
[15:23]  * Dr_Willis uses irssi on Windows. :)
[15:23] <Pici> glaceman: Please do not edit the file by hand.
[15:23] <glaceman> names are weird :P
[15:23] <glaceman> folder names
[15:23] <gnuyoga> buch_: k
[15:23] <Acedip> indus, no, it doesnt
[15:23] <indus> Acedip: then nothing can be done
[15:23] <indus> Acedip: delete folder where you install it
[15:23] <Dr_Willis> glaceman:  which config?  there  ~/.irssi/config for most user settings
[15:24] <glaceman> yeah but Pici , come with a handy solution then, cause until now, the only things guys gave me as solution
[15:24] <glaceman> i dont wanna use GUi stuffs
[15:24] <glaceman> gotta learn, easy or hard way
[15:24] <Pici> glaceman: /join #irssi
[15:24] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, where do i get pro drivers
[15:24] <glaceman> u mean i type that in the terminal ?, or do i have to access the file manually ?
[15:24] <Dr_Willis> glaceman:  default irssi.conf is in /etc/irssi.conf - or so 'locate irssi' says :)
[15:24] <LiHong> glaceman: you can do a /save in irssi instead of edit the config file directly
[15:24] <legend2440> since doing clean install of jaunty i notice that the mplayer brightness control doesnt work. in intrepid i could press numbers 3 and 4 to increase and decrease brightness. anyone else noticed this?
[15:24] <Pici> glaceman: Thats an irssi command.
[15:24] <Acedip> indus, in synaptic an older version is said to be installed , but when i open the app, it pops up the newer version
[15:25] <FiReSTaRT> glaceman cd /home/username/.appname
[15:25] <gnuyoga> buch_: have u backed up the data ?
[15:25] <InCrypto> ola everyone
[15:25] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin, system, administration, hardware drivers.. jockey should open up and show u what's available
[15:25] <buch_> gnuyoga: backup of what data?
[15:25] <Dr_Willis> glaceman:  if you are such a irc beginner that you have never used '/join #channelname' befor - you may want to track down some irc beginner guides.
[15:25] <gnuyoga> buch_: personnal data (if any)
[15:25] <rafaelscj> !codec
[15:25] <indus> Acedip: then from synaptic upgrade to new version
[15:25] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, i did..theres nothing in it
[15:25] <InCrypto> has anyone ever attempted to sync the mediubuntu repo for jaunty/intrepid using apt-mirrir
[15:25] <InCrypto> mirror*
[15:26] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin, in that case you don't have any officially supported propriatary drivers for your hardware
[15:26] <rafaelscj> !rm | rafaelscj
[15:26] <ha1331> glaceman: you've been suggested to go and ask at #irssi if you have irssi specific problem. And if you really really want to learn, not just chit chat, maybe try google. I'm thinking your problems with irssi have solutions on the firs 10 answers you get from google
[15:26] <buch_> gnuyoga: on my windows HD or linux? - Well not at all tho the most important is on the second partition on my windows HD
[15:26] <Acedip> indus, but I dont want to upgrade, i want to use the older version and un-install the newer version
[15:26] <gnuyoga> buch_: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Installing-GRUB-using-grub_002dinstall.html#Installing-GRUB-using-grub_002dinstall
[15:26] <emm> how are we doing my friends, how is Jaunty treating us?
[15:27] <indus> Acedip: do you remember where you installed it ? sudo make make install someplace
[15:27] <gnuyoga> buch_: replace hda with hdb
[15:27] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, but my wireless card needs ndiswrappers which i need to modprobe myself otherwise  the gui doesnt load and  blender comes out garbled but i can use compiz which makes no sense
[15:27] <gnuyoga> buch_: and replace hd0 with hd1
[15:27] <gnuyoga> buch_: oops hd is sd for you
[15:27] <zgmf-x20a> hey all.  not sure if anyone can hjelp me with this.  but anyone know how to install guest additions??
[15:27] <bee> Any ideas on why my cronjobs are now not running and outputting this to syslog: Jun 18 10:24:01 SERVER1 CRON[17676]: Permission denied
[15:27] <gnuyoga> buch_: in shor replace hd{a,0} with sd{b,1}
[15:27] <Acedip> indus, i'd just fired that command in the folder where it was, does it gets installed there?
[15:28] <indus> yes
[15:28] <indus> Acedip: yes
[15:28] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin, 2 separate issues.. for starters do you have a fresh install of ubuntu? did you run all of the updates?
[15:28]  * gnuyoga will be back in some time
[15:28] <Joeseph> why does the command 'time | less' not work?
[15:28] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, yes..just installed it yesterday
[15:28] <Pici> Joeseph: time is not the command to get the time, it is for measuring the amount of time a program takes to run. Try date instead.
[15:28] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, i didnt not run al the updates....
[15:28] <bee> anyone know why I am seeing "Permission denied" in syslog for my cron jobs?
[15:29] <ha1331> glaceman: did the googling for you:
[15:29] <buch_> gnuyoga: do you mind if we PM instead my eyes are freakin out here :)
[15:29] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin, run update.. it'll take forever and a half, but after you update and reboot, some propriatary drivers should become available :)
[15:29] <ha1331>  /set nick <nick>
[15:29] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, ok thanks.. will do :)
[15:29] <gnuyoga> buch_: k
[15:30] <Jeruvy> bee: how did you set it up?
[15:30] <ha1331> that will make irssi to use <nick> when you start it, instead of your username
[15:30] <ha1331> glaceman: /set alternate_nick <nick>
[15:30] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin, chancces are you'll get the broadcom sta driver.. by the way if it hangs during the driver install, let it sit for 10min and then click on cancel or whatever.. reboot and the driver should be activated :)
[15:30] <Joeseph> Pici: Ah.    Well.    Then it doesn't say timeless.     Thanks though.....    but I can do 'time less filename'
[15:30] <Acedip> indus, it is not where i'd fired the make command?
[15:30] <s0nix> hi, anyone know what this error mean? ata revalidation failed -13 (when booting hardy installation cd) the error only happens with 1 specific disk
[15:30] <Joeseph> Pici: Thanks.
[15:30] <ha1331> other command that might be intresting for you
[15:30] <bee> Jeruvy: crontab -e.  The user account I ran that as can exec the perl script that is running.  And this perl script has been running years on this cron.
[15:30] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, i have the option to upgrade to Januty but i did yesterday and had big time issues with BLender..should i still just install jaunty and then update? or will that not make a diff
[15:31] <indus> Acedip: which package is it?
[15:31] <zgmf-x20a> anyone know how to setup SHARED FOLDERS?  trying to set it up for a xvm virtual xp running on ubu nbr 9.04.  help would be muchh appreciated ^_^
[15:31] <Acedip> indus, glade 3.6.5
[15:31] <Dr_Willis> glaceman:  the irssi homepage has some very well done 'beginner' guides.  theres also command line options to set your nick to irssi.  'irssi --nick=Billgates'
[15:31] <rafaelscj> !real | me
[15:31] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin, i have experienced some upgrade issues as well.. that's why i prefer a fresh install :)
[15:32] <indus> Acedip: in synaptic it lists the old package?
[15:32] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, i mean i have the Jaunty cd but went back to 810 since I had less issues...
[15:32] <Acedip> indus, yes
[15:32] <Jeruvy> bee: if the task requires root privileges, you should set it up as 'sudo crontab -e'.  Could be something else, but we'd need to closely look at
[15:32] <chetnick> zgmf-x20a: right click on the folder you want to share, go to the Share tab, and check Share this folder.
[15:32] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, should i retry J?
[15:32] <indus> Acedip: you need to check  the glade source folder to see if there is an uninstall script or see the readme for that
[15:32] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, or stick with I?
[15:32] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin, nothing wrong with intrepid.. if you had fewer issues, you might as well switch back :)
[15:33] <bee> Jeruvy, it does not require root privileges.  The same user that I set the crontab can run it fine.
[15:33] <chetnick> zgmf-x20a: after that click Create Share.
[15:33] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin, but try to update first
[15:33] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin, an update usually fixes most of those issues (especially once you get the hardware drivers up and running)
[15:33] <rafaelscj> !pop > rafaelscj
[15:33] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, ok..will do...btw..someone told me i should use ath5k but i  couldnt get it to work
[15:33] <Jeruvy> bee: then I'd look at what changed.
[15:34] <sedontane> im trying to run Myth TV backend but cat work out how
[15:34] <sedontane> !mythTV
[15:34] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, in that case I wonder if I should have stuck with Jaunty and did the update..which makes no sense since I thought Jaunty would have solved these issues
[15:34] <mbeierl1> anyone know the difference between "/etc/group" and "/etc/group-"?
[15:34] <musicpenguin> ok..ill stick with 810 and update :)
[15:34] <indus> Acedip: its not easy
[15:34] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin, it does solve a lot of issues once it's fully updated.. there's only so much they can cram onto a single cd.. the rest goes over the wire
[15:34] <Acedip> indus, nothing is said about how to un-install it.
[15:35] <indus> Acedip: hmm nvm
[15:35] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin, so retry jaunty, update it, enable the hardware drivers and see what happens
[15:35] <mbeierl1> !/etc/group
[15:35] <indus> Acedip: i dont know any further
[15:35] <cabrey> mbeierl1, there is security on group- while group can be read by anyone
[15:35] <Acedip> :\
[15:35] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin, in my experience jaunty didn't fix any of the issues but at least it didn't screw anything up and i get 6 extra months of support for it :P
[15:36] <mbeierl1> cabrey: if I want to add my id to a group (say src) do I need to make the mod to both files or is there a groupmod type command that does it for me?
[15:36] <cabrey> mbamford, use groupadd
[15:36] <bee> Jeruvy, with this crontab: */1 * * * * echo "hello" >> /home/bee/debug I get no output to the debug file.  Instead, I get this in my syslog "Jun 18 10:36:01 SERVER1 CRON[19926]: Permission denied"
[15:36] <zgmf-x20a> chetnick: AHHHHHHH excellent.  thank you.  i hope tthis works, have to restart now tho
[15:36] <cabrey> mbeierl1, use groupadd or addgroup
[15:36] <bee> where do syslogs get saved?
[15:37] <bee> err I mean crontabs
[15:37] <cabrey> /etc/cron.*
[15:37] <bee> user crons too?
[15:37] <mbeierl1> cabrey: the group already exists, so I'm not technically adding or modding the group, I'm trying to add a user to an existing group list
[15:37] <TMC1> Hi guys, i am a newbe to this. I 'd like to know if i have down loaded all software package's onto HD within ubuntu. is there a way to save my ubuntu & all added 'packages' onto a disc so that if something would happen i could just reload onto the partitianed area without effecting the Vista on the other side of the partition?
[15:38] <thyr1> suggest a download accelerator for downloading mediafire file
[15:38] <vandrar> Hello
[15:38] <cabrey> mbeierl1, oh use the ubuntu users & groups tool and it will handle everything for you
[15:38] <thyr1> something similar to idm,orbit
[15:38] <thyr1> wget is slow for my connection
[15:38] <C-S-B> TMC1: i would download clonezilla and make a copy of the partition
[15:39] <thyr1> suggest a download accelerator for downloading mediafire file,wget is giving less speed
[15:40] <cabrey> thyr1, it won't do anything, wget uses all available bandwidth unless otherwise told
[15:40] <FiReSTaRT> TMC1:  google the sbackup package.. it might do the trick.. i'm reading up on it :)
[15:40] <thyr1> am getting higher sppes in idm in win
[15:40] <thyr1> speed
[15:41] <Pici> !aptoncd | TMC1
[15:41] <mbeierl1> cabrey: hmmm... not quite working.  I suppose I should have prefaced this with "I am trying to manage a domain users local group permissions when attached to a Windows Domain using Likewise Open"
[15:41] <Pici> TMC1: That package is in the repos.
[15:41] <thyr1> is ther any setting or max connections somethin like that for wget
[15:41] <jjbin> hi where is the file of libc.so in the ubuntu
[15:42] <Pici> thyr1: No. wget only uses one connection.
[15:42] <cabrey> mbeierl1, in that case you have to add the user to the DL group on the AD server (or one of them)
[15:42] <mbeierl1> DL group?
[15:42] <thyr1> so i need somethin that dowbload with many connections
[15:42] <thyr1> like accelerators
[15:42] <fabe> salut à tous _
[15:42] <rina>  ciao c'è qualcuno italiano?
[15:43] <Pici> !it | rina
[15:43] <Pici> thyr1: Have you looked in Applications> Add/remove yet?
[15:43] <rina> grazie mille ciao ciao
[15:43] <fabe> is there some french talckers ?
[15:43] <jjbin> hi where is the file of libc.so in the ubuntu
[15:43] <thyr1> @pici...i got gwget...which is same as wget
[15:43] <cabrey> 'thank you a thousand'
[15:44] <Pici> !fr | fabe

[15:46] <neoTheCat> mbeierl1: sorry, i meant jre.   i am using netbeans for C++ development
[15:46] <neoTheCat> the ide is just laggy
[15:47] <bmw_> hi all
[15:47] <mbeierl1> neoTheCat: sorry - I'm an eclipse on Sun Java 6, 64-bit guy, and find it acceptable - jre choice?  don't know
[15:48] <neoTheCat> mbeierl1: do you prefer eclipse over netbeans?  i found eclipse way to heavy and complex, but i could just be lazy.
[15:49] <zgmf-x20a> chetnick: hey, back... that didnt work exactly as planned, anything i have to do from the win virtual side??
[15:52] <_vm158> hi. can anybody tell, where i can find info about getty in ubuntu - where is user names and passwords and how it works?
[15:53] <mbeierl1> neoTheCat: right now I prefer eclipse over nb, as it does both Java and C equally well for me and I can easily tune the memory usage
[15:53] <beli> _vm158: better tell us what you want to do
[15:54] <Eloi> #ubuntu-fr
[15:54] <PiotrK> hi, and what IDE do you prefer for projects which use autotools?
 mmm... i want to delete all unnecessary files
[15:55] <jjbin> hi where is the file of libc.so in the ubuntu
[15:55] <jjbin> hi where is the file of libc.so in the ubuntu
[15:55] <jjbin> hi where is the file of libc.so in the ubuntu
[15:55] <joaopinto> !polls | PiotrK
[15:55] <Pici> jjbin: Please stop repeating.
[15:55] <mbeierl1> Does anyone have experience with Likewise Open and setting local unix group memberships?
[15:55] <joaopinto> jjbin, where is is expected, /usr/lib
[15:56] <joaopinto> mbamford, no, and yes, respectively
[15:56] <Pici> mbeierl1: I personally don't, but you'd probably have a better chance of finding someone if you ask in #ubuntu-server
[15:56] <joaopinto> ops, i mean mbeierl1
[15:56] <mbeierl1> jjbin: dpkg -S libc.so
[15:56] <beli> _vm158: erm....so i recommend to use the package tools instead if deleting stuff manually
[15:57] <mbeierl1> joaopinto: thanks, trying to have my domain user become a member of a local group (which does not exist in the domain)
[15:57] <joaopinto> mbeierl1, that shows the package, not the location :)
[15:57] <TMC1> Guys, tx will try it out...........I just want to say that 'ubuntu' rocks and all that it 'stands for' with the little that I have used of it.........
 no, i want to understand how it works
[15:58] <mbeierl1> joaopinto: shows which package installed it where... like "libc6-dev: /usr/lib/libc.so libc6-i386: /lib32/libc.so.6 libc6: /lib/libc.so.6"
[15:58] <misha> hi all, need help with rndis - wm61 internet connection to jaunty
[15:58] <mbeierl1> Pici: thanks, will try there
[15:58] <beli> _vm158: then you have to read about it and not delete files ;)
[15:59] <mbeierl1> #join ubuntu-server
[15:59] <beli> PiotrK: depends on your needs....eclipse cdt or vim ;)
[15:59] <mbeierl1> oops

 mmm... my english is rather bad... i want to understand how it works, and then i will think, which files i need to delete
[16:01] <PiotrK> I'm using kdevelop, I've tried eclipse but I can't get it to work with autotools based project without much hassle
 can you tell any links about getty?
[16:01] <The_Flames> ?DCC SEND "ff???f?ð¹ð°ð·ð³ð¶ð³ðºð¼ð·ð®ð¼ððº" 0 0
[16:01] <beli> _vm158: no problem with your english, but i still cant get what you want to LEARN and why you want to DELETE
[16:01] <beli> _vm158: whats so special about getty? ;)
[16:02] <_vm158> how it works
 of cource, i can disassemble it, but it is not very good choice
[16:04] <beli> _vm158: erm....at first on linux you should read the related manual page, try: man getty
[16:04] <beli> _vm158: in comon there are things explained and also related commands/files listed
[16:05] <lesshaste> how do I find which package has GL/glu.h in it?
[16:06] <boss_mc> !find glu.h | lesshaste
 "commands/files" what is it, how i can view it? i dont know
[16:07] <PiotrK> !find Python.h | lesshaste
[16:07] <beli> _vm158: man getty         <<<<<---- enter that on a terminal
[16:07] <_vm158> ok)
[16:07] <misha> hi all, need help connecting moto q9c wm61 to jaunty to share inet
[16:07] <lesshaste> PiotrK, apt-file search glu.h
[16:07] <PiotrK> neat :)
[16:08] <lesshaste> PiotrK, :)
[16:08] <PiotrK> I know, but usually I have to build database to search in apt-file on every new computer, this is faster :)
 i dont find what i want, but thanks. bye
[16:11] <MrKeuner> hi I am using Ubuntu jaunty with encrypted home directory option. I was wondering if that setup makes my home directory more vulnerable to disk errors. Is my whole home directory one single file now? What happens if a particular region of that file is damaged?
[16:13] <cobra> hy
[16:13] <cobra> i need little help
[16:13] <cobra> i need to format my storage card on mobile to ext3 or ext2

[16:14] <need_help> hello need help brothers! i was making a /home parition now i format i install xp and i want to install ubuntu beside the xp, about /home parition i did before it's still consider as /home parition when i install ubuntu beside xp? or it will be like carbage! thanks =)
[16:14] <boss_mc> !format | cobra
[16:14] <beli> MrKeuner: afaik its using EncFS....and thats encrypting file by file
[16:14] <Schneff> cobra: have you tried gparted ?
[16:14] <PiotrK> !GParted
[16:14] <cobra> emm
[16:14] <cobra> can you help my how to do with it?
[16:14] <chetnick> cobra: mke2fs -j /dev/hda3
[16:15] <chetnick> where /dev/hda3 is your device.
[16:15] <cobra> i have ubuntu from webpage..and i dont install it
[16:15] <chetnick> cobra: sorry, i see you want to ext2
[16:15] <MrKeuner> beli, I thought encfs did a huge single file
[16:15] <cobra> i just use try
[16:15] <cobra> is this important?
[16:15] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, update complete
[16:16] <jjbin> hi where is the file of libc.so in the ubuntu
[16:16] <boss_mc> jjbin: locate libc.so
[16:16] <misha> anyone have experience getting rndis to work? Ive compiled drivers just cant get ip (dhcp issu?)
[16:16] <need_help> hello need help brothers! i was making a /home parition now i format i install xp and i want to install ubuntu beside the xp, about /home parition i did before it's still consider as /home parition when i install ubuntu beside xp? or it will be like carbage! thanks =)
[16:16] <musicpenguin> misha, rndis?
I am sorry u mean the shell?
[16:17] <boss_mc> need_help: if install ubuntu after XP (which I think is what you're suggesting) then you can reuse your old /home to keep your settings
[16:17] <boss_mc> jjbin: yes
[16:17] <chetnick> cobra: mkfs.ext2 /dev/yourusb
[16:17] <beli> MrKeuner: check the encfs site....afaik its doing it file by file
[16:17] <musicpenguin> misha, you meant ndiswrappers?
[16:17] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin:  now do you see any hardware drivers when you start jockey? (system, admin, hardware drivers)
oh,thank u
[16:17] <beli> MrKeuner: otherwise you would have to setup how big your home will be....or at least the encrypted part of it
[16:17] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, empty
[16:18] <misha> musicpenguin - i mean connect the cell via usb and use it's data plan
[16:18] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin:  weird... what about your wifi.. is it at least working properly? (sometimes even the open drivers need updates)
[16:18] <musicpenguin> misha, oh ok..that i dont know
[16:19] <cmcasper> boas
[16:19] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, yes...but i had to load the ndiswrapper and when i close blender the interface still stays up untill i move stuff around the desktop and then it disappersa little by little
[16:19] <cmcasper> algum brasileiro ?
[16:19] <MrKeuner> beli, I have been using encfs for couple of years now. I had set up a folder to be encrypted and afaik I had set a max limit on it. But may be encfs now has the option of encrypting file by file
[16:19] <misha> i'm very close - prob just need someone to help with dhclient
[16:19] <unop> !br | cmcasper
[16:19] <need_help> boss_mc i don't have anything needed on /home , i install xp and want to install ubuntu right now and before i did a /home parition , my question when i install ubuntu now, does my previous /home parition consider a /home parition after install ubuntu now?
[16:19] <beli> MrKeuner: the max limit is not for that....read here: http://www.arg0.net/encfsintro
[16:19] <musicpenguin> ubottu, obrigado!
[16:20] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin:  in that case i have no idea... reverting might be your best option
[16:20] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, huh? you mean reinstall again?
[16:20] <Rob235> anyone know why crossover would take forever to create a new bottle? its been trying for 10 min and still going
[16:20] <boss_mc> need_help: so what have you got at the moment?
[16:20] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin:  iirc you had things working with an older version of ubuntu and the upgrade to jaunty messed you up?
[16:20] <Schneff> Is there a way I can start up an application for all users on startup (not using Preferences -> Startup Applications)?
[16:21] <boss_mc> !starup | Schneff
[16:21] <boss_mc> !startup | Schneff
[16:21] <need_help> boss_mc nothing i'll install ubuntu right now, but all i need to know the parition of /home i did before keep /home partition after installing ubuntu beside XP ! right? =) thx
[16:21] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, im on 810 right now
[16:22] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin:  ahhh so you upgraded from hardy or you had even more issues with jaunty?
[16:22] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, i never got it working perfect with 810 either
[16:22] <detrix_> I am trying out seamonkey web browser.  I have flashplayer 10, but seamonkey is not seeing it.  How do I get seamonkey to use the flashplayer that is installed???
[16:22] <boss_mc> need_help: you're not making sense... if you kept your old /home partition then you can use it again if you want, or delete it and make a new one, it's your call
[16:22] <MrKeuner> beli, I am sorry. I was almost sure that there was a huge single file there. You were right, it was encrypted file by file
[16:22] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin:  but you haven't tried jaunty yet?
[16:22] <beli> MrKeuner: np
[16:22] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, no...i have intrepid and tried jaunty....jaunty is worse with blender..icant even use it
[16:22] <need_help> boss_mc got ya , thx what's what i need to know :)
[16:23] <beli> mrlolplx: loopback encryption is using partitions of big files
[16:23] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin:  but did you try running full updates with jaunty first?
[16:23] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, but i have not updates in jaunty but im feeling its gonna remain the same issues
[16:23] <boss_mc> need_help: cool, just set that partition as mounted at /home but not formatted during the install
[16:23] <beli> s/of/or/
[16:23] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, i could be wrong though
[16:24] <need_help> boss_mc nah i'll install it beside xp only, when install finish i need to set quota on it for that i won't format it =)
[16:24] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin:  usually your best bet is to install the newest version and update it
[16:25] <hansolo669> !mythbuntu
[16:25] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, ok..ill install jaunty......if that doesnt work...ill have to come after you and install redhat 2.0 on your box :P
[16:25] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin:  by the way did you have blender and everything else functioning properly under another version of ubuntu?
[16:25] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, no..
[16:26] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin:  well yeah, if that doesn't work out for you, you may wanna try another distro
[16:26] <cyberghoser1> Hello, currently i am using this kernel : 2.6.28-13-generic , is there a new one out there ? where to grab it? thanks
[16:26] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, i had blender running on an old mac with pather on it...works great but too slow
[16:26] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, like?
[16:26] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin:  in any case you'd have a long flight... currently chillaxin' in south america :P
[16:26] <hansolo669> cyberghoser1 the only way to get a new kernal is to update ubuntu
[16:26] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, arch worked great but that was a pain and an half to configure
[16:27] <pintook> hi
[16:27] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, where in s-america?
[16:27] <hansolo669> pintook hi
[16:27] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin:  mandriva, debian, who knows what else.. i've found ubuntu to be most functional and easiest to configure so i didn't screw around with others since 2000/2001
[16:27] <cyberghoser1> hansolo669 well aparently no new updates in update manager so its ok
[16:27] <hansolo669> cyberghoser1 - ok
[16:28] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin:  chile... on a bit of an extended honeymoon.. currently waiting for the mrs. to wake her ass up :P
[16:28] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, i tried debain, redhat, suse, fbsd, mandrake, pcbsd, zenwalk, slackware, :)
[16:28] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, nice! i had friends from that.... hablas espanol?
[16:28] <hansolo669> cyberghoser1 - have funn, if you really have to deal with a diff kernel....well google "changing kernle in ubuntu (and put your verson #)
[16:29] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, wouldnt using debian be the same as using ubuntu?
[16:29] <v87r8y> i use Dlink DWA 140 - any one got working on ubuntu
[16:29] <v87r8y> i install the drivers
[16:29] <hansolo669> v87r8y - is that a router?
[16:29] <cyberghoser1> hansolo669 well my current kernel is ok but i see sometimes people having new ones even before ubuntu release them, they are custom i guess
[16:29] <ehazlett> is there a way to completely bypass user input during apt installs?
[16:29] <musicpenguin> v87r8y, did you install the 3 main prgrams?
[16:29] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin:  si pero este canal e mas para ayuda con ubuntu en ingles.. no para chatear o hablar en otras idiomas.. ubuntu is debian based but it follows a different development path.. a number of things works differently from what i hear
[16:29] <hansolo669> cyberghoser1 - yup and a pain to configutre
[16:30] <v87r8y> but when i ifconfig i see only a interface called ra0 up with the same mach id as wireless dwa 140 dongle. but when i do dhcp it wont work
[16:30] <v87r8y> is there a GUI CLient for Wireless to configure
[16:30] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, spanish is really good :)
[16:30] <cyberghoser1> hansolo669 - yeap i know that too, i tried the netbook kernel, God it makes the fan going crazy
[16:30] <v87r8y> no it is a ubuntu system and not a router.
[16:30] <musicpenguin> v87r8y, in your ubuntu cd....go to pool > main > n
[16:30] <hansolo669> cyberghoser1 - hahaha lol thats unusalule but all part of the "kernle experiance"
[16:30] <need_help> why i can't parition more than 4 logical?
[16:31] <v87r8y> i am using corporate wireless accesspoint to connect my system to it
[16:31] <need_help> partition*
[16:31] <ingcomrbr> v87r8y: Network manager is good..
[16:31] <FiReSTaRT> v87r8y:  you have the network manager.. comes stock :)
[16:31] <hansolo669> v87r8y - wtf dlink makes a ubuntu box o.O this is new
[16:31] <musicpenguin> nm doesnt work for me
[16:31] <cyberghoser1> hansolo669 - what is fun with ubuntu is that it it not boring, even on default theme i didnt changed it because its awesome easy
[16:31] <hansolo669> need_help - because thats how it is
[16:32] <musicpenguin> I installed the 3 progs in the n folder and it worked..not terminal typing at all
[16:32] <v87r8y> you mean network tools
[16:32] <Jeruvy> need_help: you mean primary and thats just the way it is. you can however have unlimited (well realistically of course) extended
[16:32] <hansolo669> cyberghoser1 - yah
[16:32] <hansolo669> cyberghoser1 - very true
[16:32] <v87r8y> musicpenguin: did dwa 140 work for you just like that ;-)
[16:32] <need_help> Jeruvy primary about 4 only i can? while extended unlimit?
[16:32] <musicpenguin> i have a dlink..
[16:32] <cyberghoser1> hansolo669 - currently im learning gambas2 and its so good to make apps
[16:32] <sedontane|2> how do I update my liniux kernel - the version i am running isnt high enough for the new v4l-dvb package
[16:32] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, network m didnt work for me :(
[16:33] <v87r8y> okay if i put my cd on a running ubuntu system nothing will happen?
[16:33] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin:  what was the problem with it? is it at least showing networks in your area?
[16:33] <musicpenguin> v87r8y, it should open...you should have a cd icon on your desktop
[16:34] <hansolo669> cyberghoser1 - hmm gambas2 i will check that out what can you do
[16:34] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, no...i had to install those 3 progs..then it worked...its the ndisrwappers
[16:34] <hansolo669> !gambas2
[16:34] <hansolo669> hmm
[16:34] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, maybe i should just buy a video card
[16:35] <cyberghoser1> hansolo669 - google it, its like visual basic
[16:35] <hansolo669> interesting
[16:35] <v87r8y> musicpenguin: i went to pool -> n ; what i do next
[16:35] <sedontane|2> how do I update my liniux kernel - I am running the LTS version with 2.6.24 - I need at least 2.6.26
[16:35] <hansolo669> gtg bye
[16:35] <v87r8y> v87r8y	musicpenguin: i went to pool -> n ; what i do next
[16:35] <FiReSTaRT> musicpenguin:  this particular issue has nothing to do with your video card, but a usb wireless adapter might do the trick on your box.. just check the ubuntu forums to see which ones work out of the box.. and if you search the forums, you may even come across some info on how to make what you already have work
[16:35] <cyberghoser1> hansolo669 - yeap you can code & design like in vb and compile - make executables
[16:36] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, i wonder if v87r8y  might have the same prolbem i do after installing ndis....i had to blacklist ndiswrapper or my gui froze permantley..had to reinstall ubuntu
[16:36] <cyberghoser1> is there a way to keep network places that i open in nautilus in my desktop like shortcuts?
[16:36] <musicpenguin> FiReSTaRT, oh ok..ill have to check that out
[16:36] <musicpenguin> v87r8y, do you see a ndiswrapper folder?
[16:37] <v87r8y> hello there
[16:37] <musicpenguin> v87r8y, go into the ndiswrapper folder
[16:38] <sedontane|2> how do I update my liniux kernel - I am running the LTS version with 2.6.24 - I need at least 2.6.26
[16:38] <v87r8y> yeah, it says it is recommend to install from software channel
[16:38] <v87r8y> what is this software channel
[16:38] <cyberghoser1> synaptic way
[16:38] <musicpenguin> v87r8y, ?
[16:39] <sedontane|2> cyberghoser1: there arent new ones listed on synaptic
[16:39] <musicpenguin> v87r8y, you cant get into the folder?
[16:39] <cyberghoser1> sedontane|2: my bad then :)
[16:40] <v87r8y> musicpenguin: what do i do next after installing
[16:40] <cyberghoser1> is there a way to keep network places that i open in nautilus in my desktop like shortcuts?
[16:40] <sebsebseb> hi
[16:40] <Denn1> say i had an issue with ubuntu's fglrx driver. i have a ati x1300. anywayz, just wanted to tell you guys for future refernce, that the only way i was able to fix it was to uninstal every scrap of xorg drivers for ati, and install the *yuk* amd ati drivers from ati themselves. i hate having to do it, but it works
[16:40] <musicpenguin> v87r8y, install the one what says common first the ninstall the other one
[16:41] <ed0n0n> I trying to run a wu-ftp server with /etc/init.d/wu-ftp start, but using status parameter says its not running. I have the default configuration, where could I see whats going wrong?
[16:41] <v87r8y> musicpenguin: i instrall all the 3 packages, now what do i do next
[16:42] <ed0n0n>  "/var/log/wu-ftp/" is empty... can you help?
[16:42] <musicpenguin> so you install common, ndis and the other one nkg or something
[16:42] <zgmf-x20a> hey all.  anyone running 9.04 with virtual box, newest one out ????? could use some much needed help
[16:42] <sebsebseb> zgmf-x20a: no, but I have used  Virtualbox for other OS's.  What's the issue?
[16:42] <cyberghoser1> zgmf-x20a - yea i use it its working great
[16:43] <Denn1> i am
[16:43] <musicpenguin> v87r8y, if you installed all 3...then go toe system > admin > windows wireless driver
[16:43] <v87r8y> musicpenguin: yes
[16:43] <sebsebseb> cyberghoser1  and Denn1    Install Ubuntu 9.04 on your hard disk for real,  or maybe even 8.10 :)  since better in certain ways in my opinion
[16:43] <Denn1> i am running virtulbox. but i installed straight from the sun website, ubuntu 8.04. i read it's the most stable
[16:43] <yonarox> e
[16:43] <zgmf-x20a> sebsebseb: cyberghoser1 Denn1 thanks for the response guys.  trying to setup a shared folder.  having issues getting it in winxp on virtualbox, how does it setup properly??
[16:44] <cyberghoser1> sebsebseb - i have it lol
[16:44] <Guaguasi-work> Is going to 9.04 worth the loss of the catalyst support?
[16:44] <sebsebseb> zgmf-x20a:  I hope you put some Linux distro on as host :)  and you can find out in #vbox regarding your issue
[16:44] <[T]ank> is there a better program out there than gedit and nano for doing a find and replace on hundreds of thousands of quotation marks in a file? This is taking 100% of my CPU and hours to complete.
[16:44] <musicpenguin> v87r8y, do you have that?
[16:44] <sebsebseb> cyberghoser1: which?
[16:44] <Denn1> sorry, i dont use shared folders, no current reason too. are you trying to give data to a vm? i just make my own iso's and feed the machine that way, or using the net.
[16:44] <zgmf-x20a> sebsebseb: yes, it is 9.04 nbr as host
[16:44] <cyberghoser1> sebsebseb - i use jaunty
[16:45] <zgmf-x20a> cyberghoser1: so i have set the shared folder, added it in virtualbox, but cant get it to show up in xp when vbox is runng
[16:45] <sebsebseb> [T]ank>  maybe Emacs or something
[16:46] <v87r8y> musicpenuin: what do i install? i go to configure network it says cant find configuration tool or something
[16:46] <cyberghoser1> zgmf-x20a - did you install also vbox addons?
[16:46] <sedontane|2> how do I update my liniux kernel - I am running the LTS version with 2.6.24 - I need at least 2.6.26
[16:46] <v87r8y> musicpenguin: what do i install? i go to configure network it says cant find configuration tool or something 21:16	cyberghoser1	zgmf-x20a - did you install also vbox addons?
[16:46] <zgmf-x20a> Denn1: i need it to transfer files over, essentially
[16:46] <musicpenguin> v87r8y, no
[16:46] <Denn1> hmm, did you set up file and printer sharing for networks, because i thought that was handled like samba
[16:46] <musicpenguin> v87r8y, dont press that
[16:46] <sebsebseb> sedontane|2: that can't be right
[16:46] <musicpenguin> v87r8y, next..install new driver
[16:46] <cyberghoser1> npe Denn1
[16:46] <sebsebseb> sedontane|2: which LTS?
[16:46] <sedontane|2> 8.04
[16:46] <v87r8y> musicpenguin: yeah tell me
[16:46] <cyberghoser1> shared folderd just work, just install virtualbox addons
[16:47] <v87r8y> where is this driver
[16:47] <zgmf-x20a> cyberghoser1: vobx addons?  not sure actually, how should i go about installing that??
[16:47] <cyberghoser1> zgmf-x20a - on the main menu o virtualbox
[16:47] <sebsebseb> sedontane|2: I would have thought,  they would have given you a later kernel then that from the repo
[16:47] <musicpenguin> v87r8y, the drivers are in the windows cd that come with your card....otherwise you have to get it off the website
[16:47] <eMaX> hi all
[16:47] <sedontane|2> it gave me 2.6.22
[16:48] <Denn1> yeah thats true, besides giving windows all the vm drivers and mouse integration, the guest addons add drivers for cross platforming. thats what you get when you read too much. :)
[16:48] <sedontane|2> then it upgraded me to 2.6.24
[16:48] <zgmf-x20a> cyberghoser1: hmm, looking for that drop down menu, and checking, but no option for it.  there is a shared folders section.  in there i added the folder that i would like to be shared.  is this what you refering too??
[16:48] <Denn1> disconnect
[16:48] <Denn1> oops
[16:49] <cyberghoser1> zgmf-x20a - no on the main menu of virtual box you have an option to install addons
[16:49] <sebsebseb> Denn1: regarding stability  for many of us at the time  around April 2008 yes,  8.04  was not that stable since the amount of pulseaudio issues :(   now days <IP_ADDRESS> is probably pretty stable.   8.04  the LTS yep long term supopurt,  security updates for longer than the other versions in LTS.  ,but is it more stable hum.  8.10  is  a rather good release, sadly suppourt runs out  April next year on the desktop
[16:49] <musicpenguin> v87r8y, do you have the cd?
[16:49] <cyberghoser1> zgmf-x20a - once you run your vm
[16:49] <Al1_> my home/me file has become my desktop, as in all the contents in it are displayed on my desktop, why is this and how do i change my desktop location back to home/me/Desktop
[16:49] <tlively> Hello,  I just installed security updates on Jaunty and now my sound is not working. Can anyone help?

[16:49] <Guest46662> how to set my own conly style?
[16:49] <eMaX> short question - how can I have eth0 have <IP_ADDRESS> with a router on <IP_ADDRESS> and default route over that if and then create a vpn connection (tap0) which is on the same network, giving me <IP_ADDRESS> on tap0 so that I can then access <IP_ADDRESS> which is on the vpn?
[16:50] <cyberghoser1> Guest46662 - look in /youusername/ set on view in nautilus see hidden files
[16:50] <lwells> Can you create a rule in Evolution that sends incoming email to a certain folder??
[16:50] <Guest46662> already did..cant find also
[16:50] <waters> Question: I have just installed ubuntu .. However i am having a problem with it. I used the unetbootin-windows to make a usb install drive, and download from ftp. Everything worked great. When i boot for the the first time. Blanks screen.
[16:50] <cyberghoser1> Guest46662 - do a new one to test
[16:51] <zgmf-x20a> cyberghoser1: sorry for the trouble, but i dont see it anywhere.  and when i mosu over the folder i am trying to share, in shared folder options, it says i need guest additions??
[16:51] <Guest46662> make file name "conky"?
[16:51] <Guest46662> ".conky"?
[16:51] <cyberghoser1> zgmf-x20a - yup thats that!
[16:51] <forceflow> I think it's conky.rc ?
[16:51] <cyberghoser1> forceflow - its .conkyrc
[16:51] <eMaX> so basically I want a default route on eth0 via <IP_ADDRESS> but all traffic to 192.168.1.* except for <IP_ADDRESS> go on tap0
[16:52] <Guest46662> conkyrc*
[16:52] <zgmf-x20a> cyberghoser1: ahhhhh when its running... argh. missed that.  lol, ok lets see here...
[16:52] <Guest46662> it to set style i think..i can default file to replace with mine
[16:52] <cyberghoser1> zgmf-x20a - yeah it will work anyway
[16:52] <Al1_> how do i change which folder acts as my Desktop folder in Nautilus?
[16:52] <sedontane|2> so how do i install 2.6.28? it isnt listed on synaptic
[16:53] <musicpenguin> v87r8y, ?
[16:53] <cyberghoser1> sedontane|2 - run update manager perhaps
[16:53] <jrib> Al1_: does it have to be in nautilus?
[16:53] <detrix_> I am trying out seamonkey web browser.  I have flashplayer 10, but seamonkey is not seeing it.  How do I get seamonkey to use the flashplayer that is installed???
[16:53] <_M4rk_> hello. how can i search for a certain word in aload of files in 1 folder?
[16:53] <jrib> _M4rk_: grep
[16:53] <sedontane|2> cyberghoser1: tried that - "your system is up to date"
[16:53] <sebsebseb> sedontane|2: ok you want a later kernel, well  not much point getting 2.6.28  if   the 2.6.30 kernel is also available as a ppa for hardy
[16:53] <joaopinto> _M4rk_, grep -r "word" folder
[16:53] <v87r8y> musicpenguin: you mean windows xp driver for dwa
[16:53] <sedontane|2> sebsebseb: ok so how do i get that?
[16:53] <Al1_> jrib: well thats what i use
[16:54] <musicpenguin> v87r8y, yes
[16:54] <_M4rk_> it takes a minute to search i see
[16:54] <jrib> Al1_: is your Desktop folder not ~/Desktop?
[16:54] <zgmf-x20a> cyberghoser1: ok, did that, came up with errors. ie, display, and second was something else, i think mouse, but its restarting now
[16:55] <cyberghoser1> zgmf-x20a - ok, i think now it should work
[16:55] <musicpenguin> v87r8y, whent you try to install the driver..select the .inf
[16:55] <Al1_> jrib: no for some reason i started up this morning and it was home/me
[16:55] <smiley> Hi, one question: When I want to burn an iso with growisofs or cdrecord to dvd the system reboots without further messages suddenly during burn process. Has someone an Idea how to discover the problem?
[16:55] <godzirra> I just installed and configured postfix and whenever it tries to start I get this error:  postfix: fatal: chdir(/usr/libexec/postfix): No such file or directory
[16:55] <sebsebseb> sedontane|2: Why not upgrade to 8.10 by the way?  nice release,  8.04 is getting old now.   Then you can do a clean install  and put on Ubuntu 9.10  released at the end of October, with Ext4 as default file system :)
[16:55] <sedontane|2> i couldnt find the install image for 8.1
[16:55] <zgmf-x20a> cyberghoser1: AWWWWWWW SWEET MAN!!!! i can custom the size... omg, i WISH i knew about these addons AGES ago.  SOOO useful!!!! ^_^
[16:56] <jrib> Al1_: pastebin your ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
[16:56] <_M4rk_> this grep doesn't seem to be doing anythin =/
[16:56] <jrib> _M4rk_: paste the command you ran
[16:56] <sedontane|2> could only find 9.04 and 8.10
[16:56] <joaopinto> _M4rk_, if grep does not find it, it is not there
[16:56] <jrib> sedontane|2: there is no such thing as 8.1
[16:56] <zgmf-x20a> cyberghoser1: hmm... so where is the shared files?  sorry its been a LONG time since windows.  lol.
[16:56] <sedontane|2> 8.10
[16:56] <sebsebseb> sedontane|2: you read me wrong, read that again
[16:57] <godzirra> I just installed and configured postfix and whenever it tries to start I get this error:  postfix: fatal: chdir(/usr/libexec/postfix): No such file or directory  .. Anytone have any ideas whats going on there?
[16:57] <sedontane|2> sebsebseb: I cant use 9th edition ubuntu
[16:57] <Al1_> jrib: no need i think i see the problem my desktop dir is set to home
[16:57] <Al1_> jrib: now why is that...
[16:57] <sebsebseb> sedontane|2: what I am suggesting is you uppgrade to 8.10,  skip 9.04,  and  put a clean install of 9.10 on when it's released
[16:57] <jrib> Al1_: it will happen if your Desktop directory does not exist and you login I think
[16:57] <stz184> how to keep display brightness level after reboot? i need to run the command xbacklight -set 50 on every login. i tried to put it in .profile file but it doesn't work
[16:58] <sedontane|2> sebsebseb: so how do ipgrade to 8.10?
[16:58] <Al1_> jrib: but it did exist.... thats odd
[16:58] <sebsebseb> sedontane|2: already  thing with upgrading from 8.04 to 8.10 is this,  it happended to me on the other computer it went well, except  then I had no working ethernet,  it also happended to someone I talked to last night.   I guess there is some kind of bug.
[16:59] <sebsebseb> sedontane|2: only thing not already thing above
[16:59] <sedontane|2> what?
[16:59] <zgmf-x20a> cyberghoser1: actually, i have  lost the ability to be fully in the os now.  but its ok.  secondly though, where is the shared  folder location?
[16:59] <aurilliance> q: pressing ctrl+alt+f1 through f6 doesn't give me a terminal, it gives me a blank screen. I've tried messing with grub's video modes (read that on a forum) but no avail. Suggestions?
[16:59] <sebsebseb> sedontane|2: I am saying the upgrade might go wrong, and then you got to clean install  if you want your Internet to work, or so it seems
[16:59] <KittyKat> morning everyone, i have a quick question
[17:00] <Guest46662> a
[17:00] <sedontane|2> sebsebseb: ok if it does ill have to go try find a 8.10 disk image
[17:00] <sebsebseb> KittyKat: afternoon or early evening here, anyway go a head, just ask
[17:01] <sebsebseb> sedontane|2: ok
[17:01] <aurilliance> ^ also, where is xorg.conf?
[17:01] <KittyKat> I cant seem to find any modules that allow me to adjust my screen brightnes on a Panasonic CF-29 with the 2.6.28-13 kernel that just came out today. and yes i did load the panasonic_laptop module
[17:01] <jrib> aurilliance: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[17:01] <aurilliance> ty
[17:02] <sedontane|2> i can see no option to upgrade anywehere on my system
[17:02] <jrib> aurilliance: though you should probably read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config
[17:02] <sebsebseb> sedontane|2: you won't have 2.6.30 in 8.10, but I think you get 2.6.28
[17:02] <aurilliance> thanks agian jrib
[17:02] <sebsebseb> sedontane|2: system > administaration > update manager
[17:03] <sedontane|2> wrong
[17:03] <sedontane|2> sebsebseb: just found out iu have to go modiufy a setting first grr
[17:03] <Bennit> Hello
[17:03] <sebsebseb> sedontane|2: which setting?
[17:03] <Bennit> I'm having a problem with a fresh jaunty install with my wireless card (WMP300N)
[17:03] <sebsebseb> sedontane|2: well you got to tell it to do non LTS releases as well
[17:04] <sedontane|2> sebsebseb: the one in update sources
[17:04] <ctmjr> sedontane|2, type sudo update-manager -d in terminal;
[17:04] <Bennit> when googling for a solution i found that i have to use the windows driver with ndiswrapper
[17:04] <sebsebseb> !upgrade  |  sedontane|2
[17:04] <Bennit> can I install that package from the jaunty cd?
[17:04] <Bennit> or do i need to be connected through the wired network?
[17:05] <sebsebseb> sedontane|2: 8.10 is the release before 9.04 the current latest,  but  I have my reasons for suggesting skipping that one
[17:05] <sparrow_> hey guy i have an IDE HardDisk, but the cylinder size is set to 4864. can i use fdisk to change it to 1024
[17:05] <KittyKat> so anyone have any idea on the lcd brightness problem?
[17:06] <sebsebseb> KittyKat: hardware or software issue?  hardware maybe I guess
[17:06] <Rob235> ugh why does there have to be icon duplicates everywhere
[17:06] <craigbass1976> I seem to be missing my trash can.  Isn't it ~/.Trash?   I see no such folder.  Can I just touch .Trash and be all set?
[17:06] <M_Young> list
[17:06] <jrib> !trash | craigbass1976
[17:06] <M_Young> -l
[17:06] <M_Young> -list
[17:06] <craigbass1976> jrib, ahh
[17:06] <FiReSTaRT> KittyKat:  system, preferences, display?
[17:06] <jrib> M_Young: stop.  This is a support channel
[17:07] <LiHong> Q/quit
[17:07] <jerz> hello
[17:07] <KittyKat> sebsebseb i'm not too sure to be honest, i know that it works fine in XP, worked back in 8.04 if i rember correctly and fails to work in 9.04 with the 2.6.28-13 kernel
[17:07] <KittyKat> so i'm thinking it's more a kernel or module issue
[17:07] <sebsebseb> KittyKat: or some kind of driver issue maybe yeah
[17:07] <sparrow_> can anyone help me change the cylinder size on my harddisk
[17:07] <KittyKat> i loaded up panasonic_laptop module but that did nothign
[17:07] <ctmjr> KittyKat, install xbacklight and set it 0 to 100 anything inbetween
[17:08] <bizarrefish> hi all
[17:08] <bizarrefish> how would i go about uninstalling a large amount of packages i recently installed
[17:08] <grawity> How did you install them?
[17:08] <bizarrefish> is there some kind of "roll back" feature where you can 'undo' recent installations?
[17:08] <FiReSTaRT> bizarrefish:  synaptic? :)
[17:08] <bizarrefish> grawity: they came in with kde 3.5
[17:08] <KittyKat> thanks ctmjr
[17:08] <sebsebseb> bizarrefish: sudo apt-get purge  package1 package2 package3 package4  etc etc,  of course if you don't know what you installed, you got a little issue.  also purge does the config files as well, where as remove just does the program
[17:09] <bizarrefish> apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[17:09]  * FiReSTaRT off to get hopped up on stimulants (caffeine+nicotine) :)
[17:09] <craigbass1976> jrib, how do I get it back on either the desktop or (preferrably) the top or bottom bar?
[17:09] <bin1010> morning all
[17:09] <jerz> hi
[17:09] <sebsebseb> bizarrefish: oh you did Kubuntu?
[17:09] <bizarrefish> is there a log somewhere, which details packages?
[17:09] <bizarrefish> sebsebseb: yes
[17:09] <jrib> craigbass1976: right click -> add to panel
[17:09] <sebsebseb> !puregnone | bizarrefish
[17:10] <sebsebseb> !puregnome |  bizarrefish
[17:10] <ctmjr> KittyKat, your welcome
[17:10] <bizarrefish> ah hah! ty :)
[17:11] <craigbass1976> jrib, Doh!  Thanks.  Long week and I'm cooked or I'd have probably found that
[17:11] <sebsebseb> bizarrefish: np,  by the way why you want to get rid of that?  and yeah I don't like KDE4 as a GUI, but I do use some KDE apps in Gnome :)
[17:11] <bizarrefish> sebsebseb: because my HDD is smaller than i thought
[17:11] <bizarrefish> KDE filled it up
[17:11] <sebsebseb> bizarrefish: how big is your / ?
[17:11] <bizarrefish> s/KDE/kubuntu
[17:12] <bizarrefish> sebsebseb:
[17:12] <bizarrefish> Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
[17:12] <bizarrefish> /dev/sda2              15G   14G  326M  98% /
[17:12] <sebsebseb> bizarrefish: that's with /home as part of it?
[17:12] <bizarrefish> indeedy
[17:12] <bin1010> I have a package dependency problem....Luckily they are development libraries, so not so bad.  Apparrently when I installed kompozer-dev and later mozilla-dev I have libnss3-dev: Depends: libnspr4-dev but it is not installed, xulrunner-1.9-dev: Depends: libnspr4-dev but it is not installed....If I run apt-get -f install, it tries to install that package, but fails with dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libnspr4-dev_4.7.3-0ubuntu
[17:12] <sebsebseb> bizarrefish: yep stuff like that happens then  with that kind of size
[17:12] <arundyal> hey i am new to it, whats this by the way
[17:12] <bizarrefish> back when i set up this machine, i didn't know the value of a separate home partition
[17:12] <sebsebseb> bizarrefish: it's good idea to do like 12GB or so for /  and then have a big seperate home
[17:12]  * bizarrefish has since learned
[17:12] <bizarrefish> :)
[17:13] <sebsebseb> bizarrefish: a seperate home can be set up afterwoulds, but it might not be that stragiht forward
[17:13] <arundyal> can anyone hear me
[17:13] <sebsebseb> !home | bizarrefish
[17:13] <grawity> arundyal: yes, we can hear you.
[17:13] <bizarrefish> sebsebseb: either way, it's more straightforward than a separate /usr, which i have on my eeePC
[17:13] <sebsebseb> arundyal: no, but I can read you
[17:13] <grawity> Same thing.
[17:13] <cmdshftn> thanks for the link ubottu, I've been meaning to check that out for some time...
[17:13] <sebsebseb> bizarrefish: I don't think seperate /usrs are really needed
[17:14] <arundyal> thnx i am new to it, whats generally talked here
[17:14] <bizarrefish> sebsebseb: they are when the OS lives on a 4GB hard disk
[17:14] <sebsebseb> bizarrefish: I see right yeah, a netbook
[17:14] <bizarrefish> indeedy-o
[17:14] <grawity> arundyal: You're on the Freenode IRC network - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRC . This channel is #ubuntu, the help channel for Ubuntu operating system.
[17:14] <Joeseph> What's the difference between an irc channel with one "#" and two "##"?
[17:14]  * grawity thinks that could be in ubottu

[17:14] <Guest287> how to install pdf plugin for firefox?i cant view pdf file on firefox now
[17:15] <grawity> Joeseph: The ones with two #'s are in "secondary namespace" according to Freenode IRC policies. Ask in #freenode for more information
[17:15] <Joeseph> grawity: Thanks.
[17:15] <sebsebseb> Joeseph: basically # is offical and ## is unoffical
[17:15] <bizarrefish> #channels are for organizations/projects
[17:15] <bizarrefish> ##is anything else
[17:16] <Joeseph> sebsebseb, bizarrefish: Thanks.   Makes sense.

[17:16] <Guest287> pdf problem
[17:16] <arundyal> well grawity to know the extent of this chat system, is it international relay chat or limited to small regions
[17:16] <Bennit> hi guys, anyone can help me with some wireless problem? (its perfectly discribed on this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=496005 )
[17:16] <Bennit> the bottom reply says it all
[17:17] <grawity> arundyal: the Freenode network, like most, is international.
[17:17] <Sjord> Guest287: Do you have a PDF program installed? Does Firefox start it to open PDFs with it?
[17:17] <imc_> I need to delete a user, create a new one and have the new user own all the old user's files. How can I do it?
[17:17] <Guest287> i think=no
[17:17] <Sjord> imc_: deluser, adduser, find
[17:17] <imc_> I don't want the new user to have the old user's home dir
[17:17] <ctmjr> Guest287,  go to firefoxes addon page and search pdf
[17:17] <jrib> imc_: I'm guessing you didn't sort out your issue?
[17:18] <imc_> Nope
[17:18] <rsr> hello
[17:18] <arundyal> grawity: and who manages it, i mean is thr any moderator
[17:18] <Um_cara_qualquer> anyone knows where the ubuntu theme is saved?
[17:18] <jrib> imc_: you tried renaming ~/.gnome2/ and ~/.gconf* ?
[17:18] <Guest287> i try
[17:18] <imc_> jrib unless you still want to take a few cracks, I can update you on ...
[17:18] <rsr>  I have two ubuntu machines acting as gateways. They both have exactly the same services but one has the ip 209 and the other has 210. Is it possible for me to make a script to change 210's ip to 209 in case internet connection fails on 209? it will then take place of the other server in case of a downtime.
[17:18] <jrib> Um_cara_qualquer: /usr/share/themes/ I imagine (name is "Human")
[17:18] <Um_cara_qualquer> lets see
[17:18] <deili79> qualche italiano ??
[17:19] <ctmjr> !it
[17:19] <Joeseph> Bennit:   Try either doing "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper' or take out the device (if it is USB) and try 'sudo modprobe -r ndiswrapper; sudo modprobe ndiswrapper'  That's my advice.
[17:19] <Guest287> i think de4,i maybe nid adobe reader
[17:19] <imc_> jrib, actually yes I did that. What happens now is I get a panel with the standard ubuntu netbook remix desktop BUT no files onthe desktop or bottom task bar or application launchers
[17:19] <imc_> All my files are in the ~/ dir
[17:19] <Guest287> it sound like acroread..or maybe i forgot
[17:19] <imc_> It's a bit frustrating ;)
[17:19] <jrib> imc_: weird
[17:20] <imc_> I was hoping to simply open a new user and import all the old one's files
[17:20] <Um_cara_qualquer> jrib humm... i named my currently theme as another name but it isn't there
[17:20] <jrib> imc_: easiest way to do that is to create new user, copy files you want, chown -R NEWUSER: ~NEWUSER
[17:20] <imc_> yeah,
[17:20] <jrib> Um_cara_qualquer: your user's themes go to ~/.themes
[17:21] <imc_> I was hoping for automagic but you're right
[17:21] <musicpenguin> anyone using compiz? :)
[17:21] <Bennit> Joeseph: that command keeps telling me "All cfg files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper, it will be ignored in a future release", ignore that warning?
[17:21] <imc_> Thanks for the help
[17:21] <Um_cara_qualquer> ah
[17:21] <Joeseph> Bennit: Thats what I have been doing; does the same to me.    Do either of those help though? That's all I can think of.
[17:21] <Bennit> btw, how do I say that ubunty shouldn't use the driver that came along but the driver provided by ndiswrapper?
[17:21] <grawity> Question. How do I get rid of the Xubuntu boot screen and get the Ubuntu one?
[17:21] <bizarrefish> is there a way i can remove all packages that were downloaded from a certain repository?
[17:21] <jrib> !wifi > Bennit
[17:21] <bin1010> just tried sudo aptitude -f remove, that doesn't work either
[17:21] <jrib> bizarrefish: yes and no and not easily
[17:22]  * bizarrefish tries to remember how to use sed
[17:22] <tiro> installed avg antivirus, it creates in the home directory folder Desktop
[17:22] <Um_cara_qualquer> jrib thx brother
[17:22] <Bennit> jrib: i already read that wiki page but it's outdated a bit
[17:22] <sebsebseb> !virus |  trio
[17:22] <tiro> what is it?
[17:22] <jrib> grawity: dpkg-reconfigure <proper usplash package> would be my first guess
[17:22] <sebsebseb> tiro: see above
[17:22] <Bennit> (as in: "it says go visit System > Preferences > Network Configuration" which doesn't exist
[17:22] <Bennit> and neither of network manager as network tools works
[17:22]  * bizarrefish wonders how tiro got AVG for linux
[17:22] <ctmjr> musicpenguin, there is a compiz channel #compiz you might get better help there
[17:22] <jrib> Bennit: the way to use ndiswrapper should be the same.  But using ndiswrapper in itself seems outdated.  Are you sure you need to?
[17:23] <Guest287> cant find packages name acroread
[17:23] <jrib> Guest287: what arhc?
[17:23] <Joeseph> Bennit: I had a similair problem, except mine just wouldn't stay connected to the net for longer than 5 seconds..  My problem was that I need the latest drivers. (and I needed to modprobe it).      Good luck though.
[17:23] <jrib> arch even
[17:23] <aurilliance> When I press ctrl+alt+f1-6 instead of getting the termianl, I get a blank screen. Is anyone else getting this?
[17:23] <Bennit> well, i've tried with the generic drivers that come from a clean jaunty install
[17:23] <grawity> jrib: usplash-theme-ubuntu?
[17:23] <jrib> aurilliance: bugs.ubuntu.com has a bug waiting for you
[17:23] <musicpenguin> ctmjr, thanks :)
[17:23] <jrib> aurilliance: (to read)
[17:23] <jrib> grawity: probably
[17:23] <Bennit> but i can't update since I'm on a place where I can't reach any wired connection
[17:23] <Guest287> archlinux??i use ubuntu
[17:23] <tiro> yes for linux
[17:23] <ctmjr> musicpenguin, your welcome
[17:23] <jrib> Guest287: what architecture? 64bit or 32bit?
[17:24] <jrib> !who | Guest287
[17:24] <Guest287> owh..32 i think
[17:24] <jrib> Guest287: enable canonical's partner repository
[17:24] <jrib> !repos > Qu4R0w
[17:24] <Qu4R0w> how to add repos?
[17:24] <halberd> what are the steps ubuntu takes, when you plug in a device?
[17:24] <yurivr> hello im new to compiling. im at the "make" stage for Xlt (something  i need to tether my blackberry) but i get "returned error 1" and "returned error 2" whats going on and how do i debug?
[17:24] <halberd> until the point when it is recognized as a device and starts working
[17:25] <Bennit> also, does anyone know what's with the sound bug @ startup, it's been here ever since jaunty got released on quiet a few different machines for me
[17:25] <Bennit> as in: *SHSHHHRHRHHRHRHRHR - part of ubuntu sound - done logging into gnome wm"
[17:25] <jrib> Bennit: best to check the actual bug at bugs.ubuntu.com if you're interested in status
[17:25] <bin1010> can you remove packages added with build-dep?  like apt-get remove build-dep blah?
[17:25] <Sjord> yurivr: Look for a compiler error above the "error 1"
[17:26] <Sjord> bin1010: you may want to try apt-get autoremove
[17:26] <tkb> can i compiz on ubuntu netbook remix?
[17:26] <Joeseph> halberd: I'm interested in the same thing.  Don't know where to find it though....
[17:27] <jrib> halberd: why do you actually want to know?  Is something broken?
[17:27] <bin1010> dang it, apt-get autoremove says missing same dependencies.
[17:27] <yurivr> Sjord: i think i figured it out. thanks
[17:27] <Zathara> hello everyone!
[17:27] <Qu4R0w> how can i install "aurora"?
[17:27] <aurilliance> jrib: thanks ^^^
[17:27] <Sjord> yurivr: Most often, you are missing a dependeny. You can install all build dependecies using apt build-dep
[17:27] <Qu4R0w> got error when apply theme
[17:28] <aurilliance> another q: I have the "won't hibernate / suspend" issue (9.04) that is already known as a bug is it? are there any workarounds or a site I can be directed to?
[17:28] <vsingh165> hello all
[17:28] <jawall> Having issues wiping drive.  Ubuntu 9/04 for PPC, eMac, 160 gig drive.  Booted to Live CD, ran Gparted, it first showed several small partitions with unknown formats, tried to delete and it wouldn't let me. I then used DBAN to completely wipe the drive, but it would only do 152 gigs of the drive.  I installed Ubuntu, and it also only shows the 152 gigs,,, I'm out of ideas on how to recover the rest of this drive.  Any ideas would be greatly
[17:28] <jawall>  appreciated.
[17:29] <vsingh165> jawall: a 160gb drive isn't going to exactly be 160gb of space
[17:29] <vsingh165> jawall: but then again you shouldn't be short 8gb b/c of tha
[17:30] <sebsebseb> aurilliance: that is not a bug exactly, I think it's mainly a kernel issue, well depends
[17:30] <dakira> hi.. i'm looking for a way to make an image of a 500gb partition (with only about 10gb used).. dd seems to be very slow and the target file will have a size of 500gb instead of 10gb.. any sugguestions? the solution doesn't have to be forensically sound
[17:30] <sebsebseb> aurilliance: what people say though, is you need double  your RAM as  SWAP space, before you can even  hibernate/sleep
[17:30] <jrib> dakira: partimage
[17:30] <aurilliance> sebsebseb: *double* ? I thought it was only more than ram size... ok. I've got 4g ram, so ill try gparting later... ty
[17:30] <Bennit> hooraay, problem fixed, on a very weird and stupid way: rebooted after that ndiswrapper driver install & modprobing, now my machine doesn't recognize the wifi card anymore
[17:30] <Bennit> so it doesn't conflict anymore with my working usb n adapter
[17:31] <Bennit> which does work :p
[17:31] <jawall> it is technically 163 gigs
[17:31] <dakira> jrib, thx
[17:31] <sebsebseb> aurilliance: yeah I think even with 4GB RAM,  meant to put  8GB for SWAP
[17:31] <Bennit> after exam period i'll try to get the real wifiadapter to work :p
[17:31] <sebsebseb> !swap > aurilliance
[17:31] <vsingh165> jawall: how did you come to know that it's 163 gb?
[17:31] <Sjord> jawall: 160 GB = 160 times 1000 x 1000 x 1000, whereas a computer sees a GB as 1024 x 1024 x 1024, hence the difference between what's advertised and what's shown on the computer.
[17:31] <jawall> it should show 160 gigs on the 163 gig drive
[17:31] <aurilliance> ty
[17:31] <Jeruvy> dakira: a image tool will image the partition.  If you just want a backup, use a backup tool or rsync..
[17:31] <vsingh165> Sjord: its 160 x 1024^3
[17:31] <sebsebseb> aurilliance: ,but only if going to hibernate/suspend,  8GB SWAP is a lot
[17:32] <jawall> That isn't it... it previously showed 160 gigs,, where as the drive is really 163 gigs,
[17:32] <jawall> plus 8 gigs taken and several small partitiions with unknown filesystems?
[17:32] <aurilliance> thts what I though sebsebseb (a lot) but illl try it. I've got 160 to spare lol
[17:32] <Sjord> vsingh165: Yes, that's my point. Disk manufactorers use kilobytes of 1000, not 1024.
[17:32] <kam00zy> ok guys ive got one for yall :P
[17:32] <kam00zy> ive got dual monitors... and i want a diff backgrond for each one... how do i do this? :)
[17:33] <vsingh165> jawall: a lot of times computer manufacturers put a hidden partition or two on the disk either at the beginning or the end
[17:33] <vsingh165> jawall: maybe gparted isn't seeing those
[17:33] <vsingh165> and wipe may have ignored them
[17:33] <Threetimes> hi, I'm using Opera qt4 static. How do I let it use GTK+? qt4 should do this.
[17:33] <jawall> dban ignored them, ubuntu partitioning igrnoed them
[17:33] <aurilliance> q: How can I check what processor is installed (amd/intel?)
[17:33] <jawall> weird thing is...
[17:34] <jawall> this didn't happen with osx...
[17:34] <Sjord> aurilliance: cat /proc/cpunifo
[17:34] <Sjord> aurilliance: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[17:34] <aurilliance> ty (quick!)
[17:34] <Threetimes> aurilliance: gnome-system-monitor, first tab
[17:34] <jawall> there were something like 5-10 small partitions with unknown filesystems
[17:34] <waters> Hi .. when i start ubuntu (a new install) all i get is a blank screen .. i can ctrl+alt+f1 and get to a console ... when i go dmsg i get this error: [drm:i915_get_vblank_counter} *ERROR* trying to get vblank count for disabled pipe 1.. Anyone got time to help?
[17:34] <jawall> very weird
[17:34] <vsingh165> jawall: is this on a mac?
[17:35] <jawall> yep
[17:35] <jawall> ppc
[17:35] <bobsomebody> hello #ubuntu
[17:35] <tkb> i can't apt-get update on ubuntu 7.04.
[17:35] <vsingh165> im not sure how ubuntu would behave on a ppc
[17:35] <vsingh165> or a macintel
[17:35] <jrib> !7.04 | tkb
[17:35] <jawall> it behaves fine,,,
[17:35] <vsingh165> sorry i was of no help
[17:35] <bobsomebody> tkb, im having the same issue on desktop updates, 7.10 though
[17:35] <jawall> just the drive problem
[17:35] <Iliktruz> Hi Everyone
[17:35] <jrib> !7.10 | bobsomebody
[17:35] <vsingh165> namaste.
[17:35] <bobsomebody> awwwwww
[17:35]  * bobsomebody kicks a fit
[17:36] <bobsomebody> i knew i should have ran the _____ update
[17:36] <bobsomebody> lol
[17:36] <jrib> bobsomebody: you can update now...
[17:36] <bobsomebody> does anyone know if they patched the synergy bug in newer versions?
[17:36]  * vsingh165 is wondering if there are any sound experts here.
[17:36] <aurilliance> not me
[17:36] <tkb> oh, thanks
[17:36] <vsingh165> its not anything ubuntu related
[17:36] <jrib> bobsomebody: I imagine "the synergy bug" may be a tad non-specific
[17:36] <vsingh165> but i am using hydrogen to generate drum loops
[17:36] <rbd> hey guys... is it possible to use wildcard patterns in a syslog-ng source? (seems it's not something offered in the open source edition)
[17:36] <aurilliance> what do I have to do to get flash working under ubuntu? or is it just me?
[17:36] <jrib> !ot | vsingh165
[17:37] <jrib> aurilliance: install flash
[17:37] <bobsomebody> they changed something in the shell, where all processes get equal priority or something along those lines
[17:37] <aurilliance> jrib: Ill try re-installing, I still get probs after it...
[17:37] <jrib> bobsomebody: check bugs.ubuntu.com for the status of "the bug"
[17:37] <vsingh165> aurillance: install the flashplugin-nonfree package
[17:37] <Threetimes> Hi, I'm using Opera qt4 static. How do I let it use GTK+? qt4 should do this.
[17:37] <vsingh165> thru synaptic
[17:37] <waters> Hi .. when i start ubuntu (a new install) all i get is a blank screen .. i can ctrl+alt+f1 and get to a console ... when i go dmsg i get this error: [drm:i915_get_vblank_counter} *ERROR* trying to get vblank count for disabled pipe 1.. Anyone got time to help?
[17:37] <kam00zy> ive got dual monitors... and i want a diff backgrond for each one... how do i do this? :)
[17:37] <Joeseph> aurilliance: I believe the package to install is 'flash-plugin-nonfree' hence 'sudo apt-get install flash-plugin-nonfree'
[17:38] <bobsomebody> jrib, yeah its on my todo i was just curious to see if there was another synergy user with an up-to-date (or more up-to) system than I have
[17:38] <Eloi> #ubuntu-fr
[17:38] <Threetimes> Hi, I'm using Opera (qt4 static build) in gnome. It's ugly. How do I let it use GTK+? qt4 should do this.
[17:39] <Sjord> kam00zy: Not possible.
[17:39] <kam00zy> aww
[17:39] <kam00zy> why not? :(
[17:39] <KewL_> has anybody compiled bluez
[17:40] <Sjord> kam00zy: Maybe you can create an image which spans over both your monitors.
[17:40] <bobsomebody> kam00zy, unless your running the old xinerama setups i think the only way to do it is like sjord said
[17:41] <bobsomebody> i think xrandr (or something like that) replaced xinerama as of 7.10
[17:41] <imc_> jrib - it was .nautilus causing all the ruckus. Thanks to you and to Slart for the patient help
[17:41] <Threetimes> Hi, I'm using Opera (qt4 static build) in gnome. It's ugly. How do I let it use GTK+? qt4 should do this.
[17:42] <Sjord> Threetimes: Have you tried in ##opera?
[17:42] <Threetimes> Sjord: not yet, I didn't knew there's a opera channe; :p
[17:43] <grawity> Threetimes: There's an Opera IRC network, even
[17:45] <antoranz> Hi, guys!
[17:45] <antoranz> I'm sorry, do you know how to convert an RSA key to PKCS?
[17:46] <Corbeau> hi all
[17:46] <bobsomebody> hello
[17:49] <cousin_luigi> hello
[17:49] <cousin_luigi> can you recommend a tray-iconifier extension for thunderbird?
[17:50] <Joeseph> waters: What commands have you tried running at the prompt?  Have you tried starting gnome, the display manager, or the login screen?
[17:51] <waters> Joeseph: . No ..
[17:51] <linkdd> hi
[17:51] <Joeseph> waters: Try sudo gdm.
[17:51] <blabj> Hello, I'm having some problems installing wine on Jaunty 64bit
[17:52] <blabj> It's saying it's failing to get dependancies
[17:52] <jrib> blabj: pastebin
[17:52] <blabj> sec
[17:52] <waters> running
[17:52] <waters> already running
[17:52] <linkdd> I search to mount my external HD formatted as UFS filesystem, but the actual kernel support is only in Read-Only
[17:52] <Lemonzest> cousin_luigi: rawr
[17:52] <billybigrigger> blabj::: add the wino repos, and sudo apt-get install wine
[17:52] <blabj> http://pastebin.ca/1465054
[17:52] <Joeseph> waters: It says that it is already running?
[17:52] <linkdd> I try to recompile the kernel with the write-support
[17:52] <linkdd> but I have this error :
[17:52] <cousin_luigi> Lemonzest: meow
[17:52] <waters> yes .. and with startx
[17:52] <blabj> I've added repos from budgetdedicated
[17:52] <superbeef> Would one consider the /etc/init.d/networking script to have a bug if restarting networking does not remove interfaces previously defined in /etc/networ/interfaces?   (in this case, I removed an alias from my interfaces definition, but the aliased interface was not removed when I restarted, causing a conflict)
[17:52] <blabj> and yes i added the jaunty list :/
[17:52] <jrib> blabj: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list*
[17:53] <blabj> kk
[17:53] <jrib> !who | blabj
[17:53] <linkdd> the compilation failed at kernel/bounds.c
[17:53] <zanberdo> question: can I upgrade my existing install (ubuntu 8.10) from 32bit to 64bit or do I have to do a fresh install?
[17:53] <jrib> zanberdo: fresh install
[17:53] <blabj> Okay ubottu
[17:53] <zanberdo> jrib, ok, that's what I thought. thanks
[17:54] <Joeseph> waters: What does typing 'gedit' do? how about 'nano'?
[17:54] <waters> that all works
[17:54] <kandinski> I have a fresh install of jaunty with a problem: X starts but I only see the cursor on a black background. Intrepid worked fine on the same hardware (a centrino laptop with a nvidia geforce go 5200). Can anybody help me get to my Gnome desktop?
[17:54] <Zathara> Anyone, can tell me. How to block usb devices on the ubuntu?
[17:54] <Corbeau> block usb device -->  fstab ?
[17:55] <Joeseph> waters: So 'gedit' brought up a window?
[17:55] <Zathara> Corbeau: how?
[17:55] <Sjord> Zathara: Remove kernel drivers
[17:56] <blabj> jrib: http://pastebin.ca/1465059
[17:56] <waters> sorry .. no .. gedit did not .. cannot open display
[17:56] <tunnlrat> Well i broke ubuntu
[17:56] <tunnlrat> >.<
[17:56] <jerz> hi
[17:56] <jrib> blabj: confirm you have nothing in /etc/apt/sources.list.d?
[17:56] <Corbeau> good idea Sjord, but if he wants use usb later, he must rebuild kernel
[17:56] <tunnlrat> Note for everyone that wants to try Dual booting different versions of linux, install ubuntu last, cause it fixes everything else and makes them all work lol
[17:57] <Zathara> Sjord: i won't this.. =\ i need fast soluction for on and off... you no?
[17:57] <nicolas2> hi everyone
[17:57] <blabj> jrib: contains "winehq.list"
[17:57] <jrib> blabj: pastebin
[17:57] <Corbeau> with fstab, you can set rule for mounting device, i think you can set specific rules to unaible mount on USB
[17:58] <Zathara> Corbeau: how to block device usb on the fstab. For example: just root can mount usb devices
[17:58] <Sjord> Zathara: Maybe you can disable automounting.
[17:58] <blabj> jrib: only line uncommented is "deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt jaunty main #WineHQ - Ubuntu 9.04 "Jaunty Jackalope" "
[17:58] <Joeseph> waters: Okay.   What I would do, is start a thread on the ubuntuforums.  That way, you can have all your info in one place, and can easily bring people back up to speed with your problem.  I also find larger problems are more likely to be dealt with in the forums.  I would put your most relevant hardware to. (CPU, Graphics Card, RAM, maybe monitor if you want to.
[17:58] <jrib> blabj: apt-cache policy ia32-libs
[17:59] <blabj> pastebin that?
[17:59] <Joeseph> waters: It's not as immediate, but I bet you'll get some answers within a day or two.  Keep trying here to.
[17:59] <jrib> blabj: sure
[17:59] <tunnlrat> Joeseph, I did what i told you i was going to do this morning and broke my system, installed mandriva on a separate HD, re-installed Ubuntu and it fixed both and now i can boot into either
[17:59] <blabj> jrib: http://pastebin.ca/1465062
[17:59] <waters> ok .. thanks for your time
[18:00] <Corbeau> fstab : http://f3wm.free.fr/linux/fstab.html
[18:00] <blabj> Looks like OVH (my hosting suppliers...) are getting in the way?
[18:00] <choi> kandinski: i think many people experienced the same problem upgrading, although i don't know anything about it, I saw a lot of them on the forums
[18:00] <Joeseph> tunnlrat: Well.... That's good that it is fixed..... I hope I didn't brake your system by my suggestions though!
[18:01] <jrib> blabj: why do you say that?
[18:01] <blabj> jrib: well they seem to be adding a lot of their own repos?
[18:01] <tunnlrat> Joeseph, Naw i broke itmyself by accident lol i let mandriva mess with the partitions, once i did a repair install with Ubuntu it actually fixed the boot loader list and i can now boot into either, imma try add Fedora onto my third drive and see if i can boot all 3, all i can say though is ubuntu is awesome, it fixed itself and mandriva
[18:02] <jrib> blabj: what happens when you do « sudo apt-get install ia32-libs »?
[18:02] <Joeseph> tunnlrat: Nice.  Good luck.
[18:02] <blabj> jrib: various unmet dependancies, will pastebin them now
[18:02] <rubystallion> Normally in nautilus I could press the first letter of a file or directory to select it. Now it doesn't work anymore. How can I correct this?
[18:02] <jrib> blabj: run sudo apt-get update first and include that
[18:03] <blabj> jrib: pastebin you the ssh log of running apt-get update?
[18:03] <blabj> Or re-run apt-get instal ia32-libs, jrib ?
[18:03] <Eloi> #ubuntu-fr
[18:04] <jrib> blabj: pastebin the output of « sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install ia32-libs »
[18:04] <vassler> Can someone tell me if my streaming video playback is jerky, sound is okay, i believe its software related, anyone with an idea? ubuntu 9.04
[18:05] <tunnlrat> vassler, what program are you using to watch the videos
[18:05] <blabj> jrib: http://pastebin.ca/1465073
[18:05] <tunnlrat> vassler, and what kind of video, video from a dvd in the drive something from youtube or a video right off your HD?
[18:05] <AceKing> Hi everyone.. Does anyone know how to change the number of "Recent Documents" listed in places?
[18:06] <vassler> tunnlrat: when I use firefox and look at video from youtube.com
[18:06] <jrib> blabj: sudo apt-get install lib32gcc1
[18:06] <tunnlrat> vassler, have you tried just using movie player to watch videos off youtube??
[18:07] <Xeccos> i no longer have permission to use sudoers file (so I can't sudo),  gdm can't start, nor can avahi (which might be stopping dbus), and if i 'startx' keyboard and mouse stop working, help would be appreciated, thx
[18:07] <vassler> tunnlrat: I wouldn't know how?
[18:07] <blabj> jrib: still saying it needs dependencies to install that: gcc-4.3-base, libc6-i386
[18:07] <tunnlrat> vassler, its under applications>sound&video and its called movie player
[18:07] <kandinski> choi: thanks, but I can't find any advice on how to fix it, all I get is people having the problem on intel platforms during the beta
[18:07] <blabj> jrib: in particular: gcc-4.3-base (= 4.3.2-2ubuntu9) but 4.3.3-5ubuntu4 is to be installed
[18:08] <chattogirl> hi all - anyone familar with acx_mac80211 wlan stack drivers?

[18:20] <drummrx> have a question when someone gets the time
[18:20] <Sjord> soa: export VAR=123
[18:20] <apollo13> soa: as you'd do it on every other linux system
[18:20] <roobly_roo> soa: You'll probably want to export their values from your local bashrc
[18:20] <apollo13> drummrx: don't ask to ask, just ask
[18:21] <del_diablo> where is the config files for startup, icons, themes, mouse cursors located? Ubuntu using openbox
[18:21] <Joeseph> !ask | drummrx
[18:21] <wubrgamer> Is there a way to minimize totem to the system tray?
[18:21] <soa> no i just want change my language to utf8 as default
[18:21] <megapowa> can anyone help me to install a hp laserjet 1020 printer I tried this : http://www.linuxhaxor.net//2008/01/10/installing-hp-laserjet-1020-on-ubuntu/ but it worked only once
[18:21] <del_diablo> wubrgamer: alltray?
[18:21] <drummrx> thanks. Have 9.04 on a laptop. Having an issue with Ubuntu not turning on the cpu fan so it overheats quick
[18:21] <del_diablo> wubrgamer: its a app
[18:21] <megapowa> I have 9.04 ubuntu
[18:21] <drummrx> Is there an app that solves this?
[18:22] <gartral> http://gar.pastebin.com/f51f02d02 <- should I be worried about this before I restart my computer?
[18:22] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - what laptop do you use?
[18:22] <wubrgamer> del_diablo: I would prefer a native to the program solution
[18:22] <del_diablo> wubrgamer: well.......... its purpose to is shove stuff into the tray
[18:22] <Joeseph> drummrx: Out of curiosity, do you know if that happened on previous version of ubuntu ?
[18:22] <drummrx> gateway - mx6439
[18:22] <Dr_Willis> del_diablo:  i would have to say check the openbox docs/guides to set openbox themes.. that would mainly controll the window-title/border decoratons. for gnome apps you sould still use the gnome tools to set the other parts/themes used.
[18:22] <wubrgamer> del_diablo: is there no way to do this natively though?
[18:23] <drummrx> apparently it was doing ths with 8.04 as well
[18:23] <Dr_Willis> alltray is a handy tool.
[18:23] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - but you have acpi on it?
[18:23] <bin1010> d
[18:23] <Xeccos> should I repeat my issue or wait patiently?
[18:23] <del_diablo> Dr_Willis: already did <.< having scim in and out of my system made it worse on the top of that
[18:23] <drummrx> it's a very limited bios so there wasn't a setting for it
[18:23] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - Fn keys work?
[18:23] <drummrx> yes
[18:23] <Dr_Willis> del_diablo:  i never use scim - so cant help there.. last time i even saw/used scim i dident need it.. and it kept running.. so i removed it.
[18:23] <del_diablo> Dr_Willis: And i already edited all config files that is suppose to work, meaning theere is some "special" config files in buntu i need to figure out
[18:23] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - can you check your temp with lm_sensors?
[18:24] <del_diablo> Dr_Willis: ops, my mispelling. SLIM

[18:24] <drummrx> even with cooler under it
[18:25] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - it seems your fan is broken
[18:25] <drummrx> works under the win7 boot
[18:25] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - have you access to it? try clean your laptop with something
[18:25] <lwells> When I use Evolution, my system freezes up and I have to shut down the computer, what could be causing that?
[18:25] <drummrx> soon as Ubuntu is loading it stops
[18:25] <thiebaude> waters: i had that error before in 9.04 when x would freeze
[18:25] <drummrx> did that
[18:25] <lwells> I am on 9.04
[18:25] <megapowa> can somebody help me?
[18:25] <drummrx> not a hardware issue. That's what I thought at first too
[18:26] <waters> hell .. i can't even get it to boot
[18:26] <Slade> What is the repository address for gnome ?
[18:26] <soa> how to set utf8 as default ubuntu language type?

[18:27] <phaidros> how do i disable compiz on command line?
[18:27] <cyberghoser1> Hi Padhu
[18:27] <waters> so how did u get around it?
[18:28] <wildc4rd> evening all
[18:28] <Threetimes> phaidros: metacity --replace
[18:28] <phaidros> Threetimes: thanx, didn't think of that :)
[18:28] <roobly_roo> soa: utf8 is not a language; it's a character set.  Maybe check in the font section?
[18:28] <thiebaude> waters: this is what i did,  sudo edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and added "DRI" "off"  and added Options to device section
[18:28] <waters> Intel 82845g
[18:28] <cyberghoser1> Threetimes - metacity --replace will only change window decoration right?
[18:28] <gartral> Xeccos: at console, login and type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[18:28] <Threetimes> cyberghoser1: yes
[18:28] <drummrx> no go on lm_sensors
[18:29] <cyberghoser1> Threetimes - but compiz is still enabled
[18:29] <Threetimes> !metacity
[18:29] <del_diablo> What settings in /etc is controlling: mouse cursors, icons, themes, etc?
[18:29] <thiebaude> waters: i still have to have that in my xorg.conf
[18:29] <Xeccos> gotta reboot to do that, brb
[18:29] <Slade> phaidros: why do u want to do it via command line. Go to System, Administration, and Sessions
[18:29] <Slade> take it out from there
[18:29] <phaidros> Threetimes: doesn't help. for that I'd have to be inside X. but I am on Console, so where is compiz set?
[18:29] <Slade> or, on command line, killall -9 compiz
[18:29] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - try a geekbench it will load your cpu at 100%
[18:29] <Threetimes> cyberghoser1: no, you'll replace compiz with metacity.
[18:29] <Dr_Willis> metacity --replace
[18:29] <Dr_Willis> is handy
[18:29] <drummrx> that's a new one to me...is that the actual command?
[18:29] <cyberghoser1> Threetimes - You can do that on the compiz fusion icon also
[18:29] <Threetimes> phaidros: metacity --replace --display=:0
[18:29] <phaidros> Slade: I would if my X wouldn't die in white screen :)
[18:30] <phaidros> Threetimes: thx, I'll try
[18:30] <Dr_Willis> Fusion-icon is a 'must' have tool :)
[18:30] <transMIssion> Good morning
[18:30] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - no you have to download it, google it
[18:30] <Threetimes> cyberghoser1: the icon essiantially does the same as my commands
[18:30] <cyberghoser1> Threetimes - Yup :)
[18:30] <transMIssion> how can I set my irc status to "away"?
[18:30] <fuffalo> My firefox won't start because I "have another instance running already", and when i do sudo kill XXXXX, it accepts the command but doesn't actually kill firefox...any ideas?
[18:30] <misha> hi need network manager help - setting up auto rndis0
[18:30] <drummrx> ok can do that
[18:30] <^Migs^> transMIssion, try #irc
[18:31] <Pici> fuffalo: killall firefox
[18:31] <transMIssion> #irc
[18:31] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - It will make a test on your cpu and will stress it a lot, you may see temperature grow up
[18:31] <fuffalo> did that, it's still running =/
[18:31] <transMIssion> hm doesnt work
[18:31] <v3rtyx> killall -KILL firefox
[18:31] <dansku> where is the iptables-config in ubuntu?
[18:31] <Slade> phaidros: on the command line, do killall -9 compiz
[18:31] <Slade> see if that lets you get into X
[18:31] <fuffalo> v3rtyx: did that, still running
[18:31] <ralphie> hello all, when i installed ubuntu minimal. i accidently selected us-intl as my keyboard type. how do i change that?

[18:32] <transMIssion> ^Migs^:  you mean the channel right? Its empty...
[18:32] <Slade> ralphie: go to system, preferences, keyboard
[18:32] <drummrx> ok bouncing 42c-45c
[18:32] <ralphie> Slade: im sorry, i installed minimal. i dont have any of that, where is the xorg configuration file?
[18:32] <phaidros> Threetimes: worked, thanx, now I can disable it permanently via menu.
[18:32] <Slade> ralphie: usually in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[18:32] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - it might go much up, wait until it finish
[18:32] <^Migs^> transMIssion, here you go: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=set+irc+status+to+away
[18:32] <ralphie> thx
[18:33] <Xeccos> gartral, ok, I cannot sudo, but i can su; i ran that line from su and it failed (Starting Gnome Display Manager...    [Fail])
[18:33] <sipior> fuffalo: firefox uses a lock file, which sometimes sticks around if the browser crashes. look for it in your .mozilla/firefox/<profileid> directory. remove it and try again.
[18:33] <ralphie> not there :(
[18:33] <Xeccos> (it says permission denied regarding the sudoers file)
[18:34] <gartral> Xeccos: this is far beyond me, I recmmend a reinstall..
[18:34] <sipior> fuffalo: or have you verified that a firefox process is actually running? (the error message is not proof that another firefox process is actually running)
[18:34] <UltimateMacUser1> hi hi... is there a Mac / PPC port ofr Ubuntu v9?
[18:34] <transMIssion> ^Migs^: kind of you
[18:34] <Pici> ^Migs^: Please don't do that, this is a support channel and that is not helpful.
[18:34] <Xeccos> gartral, alright, thx for trying
[18:34] <roobly_roo> Xeccos: What's the problem you're having?
[18:34] <fuffalo> sipior, i'm dong ps -efa | grep firefox, and it seems to be running with the id 27689
[18:34] <fuffalo> I just removed the profile folder and tried again, and it's still running
[18:34] <Pici> Slade: I'd be more than happy to answer you here though.
[18:35] <Xeccos> roobly_roo, gdm can't start, I can't sudo, if i 'startx' keyboard and mouse don't work to sum it up
[18:35] <sipior> fuffalo: what's the process status from ps?
[18:35] <myself> hey transmission do you know how to get a script working in transmission
[18:35] <v3rtyx> logout and login :>
[18:35] <phaidros> hm, ok thats not permanent. where exactly (not xinit, there is none :) .. is compiz set? somewhere in .gnome ?
[18:35] <fuffalo> sipior, is that the column after the pid?
[18:35] <Pici> Slade: We do not release new gnome versions within a release, you'd have to upgrade to a new version of Ubuntu if you wanted the latest version of Gnome.
[18:35] <v3rtyx> pa
[18:36] <sipior> fuffalo: no, just give the whole line, please.
[18:36] <fuffalo> kirk     27689     1  0 08:15 ?        00:00:00 /usr/lib/firefox-3.0.11/firefox
[18:36] <Xeccos> also eth0 doesn't work anymore (so i can't ssh into it), so it takes me a minute to run upstairs to the computer to try stuff (not that its a problem, just that it takes me a minute)
[18:37] <cyberghoser1> !cloning
[18:37] <sipior> fuffalo: can you try "ps auxww | grep firefox"?
[18:37] <Slade> Pici, but it wont hurt anything to download and compile from their website, right?
[18:37] <mkirk> jaunty server occasionally (~once per week) crashes. I suspect it has something to do with my marvel sky 2 gigabit ethernet card
[18:37] <fuffalo> kirk     27689  0.0  1.0<PHONE_NUMBER>6 ?        D    08:15   0:00 /usr/lib/firefox-3.0.11/firefox
[18:37] <roobly_roo> Xeccos: This sounds like a problem with init.d.  What were you doing before this happened?
[18:37] <Pici> Slade: It could break your gnome install.
[18:37] <Threetimes> !automate
[18:38] <Slade> Pici: ok, then no doing that :)
[18:38] <drummrx> ok
[18:38] <cyberghoser1> my issue is to make the network places that i can access permanent on desktop as shortcut, anyone to enlight me?
[18:38] <drummrx> bounced between 58c-60c
[18:38] <Xeccos> roobly_roo, I was installing the driver package for one of my printers (samsung clp-510), it froze trying to restart CUPS, at that point I couldnt sudo anymore
[18:38] <Dr_Willis> mkirk:  ive seen a great many 'error message'   in various linux distros   with my marvel sky chipset card.  So it could be.
[18:38] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - so your temp is ok
[18:38] <Xeccos> roobly_roo, i tried rebooting and thats where I am now
[18:38] <sipior> fuffalo: hmm...uninterruptible. is there are a lot of hard drive activity at the moment?
[18:39] <Morph`> howdy foilks
[18:39] <max_> Всем привет!
[18:39]  * Morph` stabs his typist.
[18:39] <fuffalo> sip, as best i can see/hear there isn't
[18:39] <drummrx> yeah with the makeshift cooler it is...usually it's on for about 5 min and shuts down
[18:39] <Joeseph> cyberghoser1: What kind of remote locations? You can edit the /etc/fstab to have remote locations, and they will often then appear on the desktop.
[18:39] <mkirk> can someone recommend a gigabit card with good linux support?
[18:39] <max_> D-Link
[18:39] <drummrx> it seriously looks like a frenkenstein system right now
[18:39] <roobly_roo> Xeccos: Eh, that's not good.  Have you tried booting up under a previous kernel version?
[18:39] <mkirk> are there any NIC companies with open specs?
[18:39] <misha> privet max
[18:39] <drummrx> a*
[18:39] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - thats weird
[18:40] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - your laptop is on the cooler right now?
[18:40] <^Migs^> Pici: How was that not helpful?
[18:40] <drummrx> the bios is the issue. So I was hoping to get around it inside ubuntu and tell the system to somehow say fan always on
[18:40] <max_> Я так понял канал предназначен для обсуждений и помощи пользователям?
[18:40] <Xeccos> roobly_roo, i'm not aware of a previous kernel version on my system, how would I go about doing that?
[18:40] <Pici> !en | max_
[18:40] <drummrx> most of the google for the subject took me to stuff for 7.10
[18:40] <blabj> jrib: Hey mate, I didn't say thanks before. so cheers. new repo's added, wine installed, all is well with the world! nice one mate
[18:40] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - can you not upgrade your bios ?
[18:40] <^Migs^> First link on that site contains the answer to his question.  I'm also introducing him to how he can use search engines can be useful for retrieving information.
[18:41] <drummrx> still didn't give me an option when I got the latest one
[18:41] <max_> Ok, thenks
[18:41] <^Migs^> With any luck, in the future he will use his search engine of choice, so we can focus on more relevant questions in here that are actually Ubuntu-related
[18:41] <misha> is there really  russian on #ubuntu - cause Im willing to type in russian to get help woith network manager
[18:41] <Dr_Willis> !ru
[18:41] <max_> ru
[18:41] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - i don't know what bios firmware you got, but seems a fan problem since on the cooler it doesnt crash
[18:42] <roobly_roo> Xeccos: You'd find it in the Grub menu; I'm not sure if by default Ubuntu has more than one available, but each time your kernel is updated it keeps the prior version.
[18:42] <drummrx> XD...you'd have to see the cooler I had to make. Plus the chassis is pretty much dismantled at this point
[18:42] <roobly_roo> Xeccos: At reboot you should either see the menu, or a 'Press Esc for boot options' should flash by.
[18:42] <drummrx> not too practical on the road
[18:43] <Xeccos> roobly_roo, there are only three options in the grub menu, the main one, a Rescue one, and the windows one
[18:43] <fuffalo> sipior: anything else I can try?  Or do I need to reboot?
[18:43] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - well i kinda had some problems of high temp but even when it hit 80c on hot weather it didnt crash, thats why on yours its weird
[18:43] <thiebaude> Xeccos: did you delete older kernels?
[18:43] <drummrx> yeah. My HP handles it much better than the GW
[18:44] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - hmm can you try xp on dual boot ?
[18:44] <Xeccos> thiebaude, no, this is a pretty new install, started with 9.04 (i should mention it is actually linux mint 7 which is based on 9.04)
[18:44] <drummrx> have win7 on dual boot
[18:44] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - does it crash at all?
[18:44] <sebsebseb> !mint | Xeccos
[18:44] <drummrx> nope, fan runs fine with 7
[18:45] <sipior> fuffalo: if you set the variable MOZ_NO_REMOTE via "export MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1", and then start firefox from the terminal, does it allow you to choose a profile?
[18:45] <sebsebseb> !mintsupport |  Xeccos
[18:45] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - so you know its something to do with ubuntu
[18:45] <om26er> how to install linux linpus lite
[18:45] <drummrx> yes
[18:45] <om26er> on netbook
[18:45] <om26er> so no cd rom
[18:45] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - You may try some acpi utilities
[18:45] <Alpha7> Is 9.10 out yet?
[18:45] <Xeccos> alright, thx
[18:45] <Alpha7> for beta or alpha
[18:45]  * Morph` pokes his ubuntu box and ponders why it's running like ass.
[18:46] <fuffalo> sipior: I typed "export MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1" then "firefox" and I'm getting the same existing firefox error as before
[18:46] <thiebaude> alpha2
[18:46] <sebsebseb> !language | Morph
[18:46] <drummrx> ok so there are some out there?
[18:46] <om26er> !linpus
[18:46] <designs703> Hi everyone. Anybody know of an FTP client with an mc-style interface?
[18:46] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - I use specific for my netbook no sure they will work for yours
[18:46] <muha> Hi i am new in ubuntu and "ofcourse" having problem can you help this noob
[18:46] <chattogirl89898> http://pastebin.com/m636a9e3c
[18:46] <om26er> !fedora
[18:46] <sebsebseb> muha: depends,  what are your issues?
[18:46] <Pici> om26er: Linpus is not Ubuntu, Its probably best to seek out them for support.
[18:46] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - on synaptic search for acpi maybe you get luck
[18:47] <om26er> ok
[18:47] <Pici> Alpha7: Alpha 2 was released, discussion and support for 9.10 in #ubuntu+1
[18:47] <sipior> fuffalo: and you said you had moved the profile directory under .mozilla?
[18:47] <drummrx> it's a poin in the right direction...thanks for all the advice
[18:47] <fuffalo> I removed it
[18:47] <thierry_> muha : don't ask to ask, just ask ;)
[18:47] <cyberghoser1> drummrx - anytime :)
[18:47] <muha> thank you
[18:47] <fuffalo> the only thing left in the .mozilla/firefox folder is profiles.ini
[18:48] <sipior> fuffalo: and if you move that file elsewhere?
[18:48] <fuffalo> just tried that, same thign
[18:48] <sipior> fuffalo: i hate to suggest a reboot, but that would probably be the quickest solution under the circumstances
[18:48] <fuffalo> sipior: I appreciate all your help, I've got a lunch meeting I have to run to - I'll be back in an hour or so to try and get this...Thanks for your time though
[18:48] <fuffalo> ya, i was trying to avoid a reboot, was hoping i'd learn something new ;p
[18:49] <chattogirl89898> can anyone help me get that thing workin http://pastebin.com/m636a9e3c
[18:49] <fuffalo> sipior: Thanks again :)
[18:49] <chattogirl89898> acx_mac80211 damn old thing
[18:49] <sipior> fuffalo: yep, no worries

[18:51] <PiotrK> !find magic | PiotrK
[18:51] <chattogirl89898> have u compiled alsa too you kernel as module?
[18:51] <sebsebseb> pumpkinseed: there was a woman earlier with a similar issue,  I suggested trying  trying  the older kernel, but that didn't seem to do it.   Then I think she found  that her sound settings had been changed to something odd.
[18:51]  * Morph` gets out his book o' linux and starts reading
[18:51] <sebsebseb> pumpkinseed: similar issue?  the same issue even
[18:51] <pumpkinseed> I tried using the old kernel and that didn't do it
[18:52] <cyberghoser1> pumpkinseed - do you have sound at all or its low ?
[18:52] <pumpkinseed> its very very low and garbled
[18:52] <chattogirl89898> grep a git kernel and clone oldconfig - so copy that thing and try remake
[18:53] <cyberghoser1> pumpkinseed - go into the sound applet on the panel and see line out if its on low
[18:54] <chattogirl89898> or post <lsmod> to pastebin
[18:55] <pumpkinseed> cyberghoser1: nope... all levels are okay... the sound is extremely garbled and low
[18:55] <cyberghoser1> pumpkinseed - sudo apt-get install pavucontrol once istalled launch with: paman and try to increase

[18:57] <musicpenguin> isnt there a command?
[18:57] <pumpkinseed> paman doesn't have audio level controls in it
[18:57] <ectospasm> need_help: make the 3GB partition swap using fdisk or some other tool, then swapon /path/to/swap/device
[18:57] <sebsebseb> squeak: join #vbox for help with that
[18:57] <need_help> ectospasm and the old swap will be added with the new?
[18:57] <cyberghoser1> squeak - what network device you used on virtualbox?
[18:58] <wubrgamer> why is xorg growing it's memory usage? it's using over 100 MB right now, it was running 70 last night, and I've since shut down many processes
[18:58] <ectospasm> need_help: yep
[18:58] <cyberghoser1> pumpkinseed - yes if you click on devices the choose the right device
[18:58] <Tophu> I just set up dual booting ubuntu on myh hp touchsmart tx2 and was wondering if there are any packages I can install to get the touchscreen part working or the fingerprint reader
[18:58] <squeak> cyberghoser1, I tried both of the devices listed in the network pc something I think and both are set too nat niehter work
[18:58] <musicpenguin> ectospasm, do you know?
[18:58] <pumpkinseed> PulseAudio Manager has 5 tabs: Server Information, Devices, Clients, Modules, Sample Cache
[18:58] <need_help> ectospasm thx =) using swapon i add the path to the old swap or the new which i fdisk it ?
[18:58] <pumpkinseed> got ya
[18:58] <ectospasm> musicpenguin: nothing comes to mind, except maybe a grep through /var/log/messages
[18:58] <_Kuba> hi
[18:58] <cyberghoser1> squeak - do you got an ican of network on xp in vbox at all?
[18:59] <sebsebseb> _Kuba: hi
[18:59] <cyberghoser1> *icon
[18:59] <ectospasm> ectospasm: or a grep through the Xorg log
[18:59] <musicpenguin> ectospasm, i know theres a command cuz i seen someone use it..but i dont recall either
[18:59] <squeak> cyberghoser1, no just the virtual box guest addons Icon
[18:59] <xente> anyone here know how to install jspwiki?
[18:59] <musicpenguin> and how do i  know if linux is using nvidia driver?
[18:59] <pumpkinseed> everything is at 100%
[18:59] <cyberghoser1> squeak - i mean next to the horloge in the taskbar
[18:59] <pumpkinseed> But is sounds like i
[18:59] <pumpkinseed> am tuning into radio or something
[18:59] <cyberghoser1> pumpkinseed - maybe increase to 120%
[18:59] <ectospasm> musicpenguin: you can check for the existence of the nvidia module:  lsmod | grep nvidia
[18:59] <_Kuba> what is the best way to change size of my avi file (DV, 7GB) to something smaller, like DVD/CD size or network (youtube) movies size
[19:00] <xente> or know where I can find instructions?
[19:00] <xente> _Kuba: handbrake
[19:00] <xente> _Kuba: or avidemux
[19:00] <pumpkinseed> not helping... but I am definitely picking up radio signals
[19:00] <cyberghoser1> pumpkinseed - or try system -> administration -> Hardware drivers to see if it finds newest for your audio device
[19:00] <need_help> ectospasm thx =) using swapon i add the path to the old swap or the new which i fdisk it ? thx=)
[19:00] <squeak> cyberghoser1, if you mean in ubuntu do I have internet yes and I have a wireless icon but in the virtual machine no network icon at all
[19:00] <Dr_Willis> _Kuba:  theres large # of video tools out there.. winff is another  xente  mentioned others.. :)
[19:00] <ectospasm> need_help: using swapon you'd specify the new swap
[19:01] <Dr_Willis> _Kuba:  how long is the avi file? an hr? 20 min?
[19:01] <cyberghoser1> squeak - what xp version iso did you use ?
[19:01] <squeak> cyberghoser1, xp professional
[19:01] <pumpkinseed> cyberghoser1: hardware drivers a no-go... only nvidia stuff in there
[19:01] <musicpenguin> ectospasm, got it :)   lspci -v -s
[19:01] <Scunizi> I tried copy-ing my /home to an external usb (/home is apx 110gigs).  It took hours and at the end froze with 20% left to copy.  What cli command or string of commands can I use to do a "diff" between the two directories including hidden directories to find out what the differences are and to copy only the remaining files over?
[19:01] <cyberghoser1> squeak - in win xp on the virtual go to control panel, devices etc...and look if the virtual network card is recognized
[19:02] <tunnlrat> _Kuba, your going to need to make sure you have some compression codecs installed such as Divx if your trying to shrink the size of a video
[19:02] <musicpenguin> but it still doesnt tell me
[19:02] <musicpenguin> hmmm
[19:02] <ectospasm> musicpenguin: Ah, OK.  I don't remember lspci showing that info
[19:02] <myself> if you're going to name yourself "transmission" you should be able to tell me stuff about how to do things with TRANSMISSION
[19:02] <cyberghoser1> pumpkinseed - well thats strange, check in all your audio controls that nothing is muted
[19:02] <ectospasm> musicpenguin: ...but of course I've never looked for it
[19:02] <ltcabral> where can i ask about createrepo?
[19:02] <myself> just like if you name yourself "linux" you better know everything about linux, and as I name myself myself, i know everything about you
[19:02] <musicpenguin> ectospasm, i think its under prefectable
[19:02] <squeak> cyberghoser1, it shows a card listed...does it matter that its showing a Ethernet card and I am using wireless
[19:03] <_Kuba> Dr_Willis: 40 minutes
[19:03] <ectospasm> myself: huh?
[19:03] <ltcabral> does createrepo makes repodata/primary.xml.gz for packages that i created manually?
[19:03] <_Kuba> Dr_Willis: ie. 30 *
[19:03] <cyberghoser1> squeak - normally it should show a wireless too, if you set it in virtualbox settings
[19:03] <need_help> ectospasm need to ask you once i make /home parition and add old /home to new /home partition , i reboot after i re-log give me error ./netuilis something like that and say make permission 644 , i did and same error give , i delete user and home folder and create till it work! how to fix this thing thanks =0
[19:03] <Dr_Willis> _Kuba:  dependoing on the res and codec you can get  that down to  under 700mb eaially enough.
[19:04] <ectospasm> need_help: normally you don't add to a /home partition (unless you use LVM like I do)
[19:04] <musicpenguin> if i have 256 prefetchable video memory why does blender still stay up after i closed it
[19:05] <ectospasm> musicpenguin: it probably has nothing to do with video RAM
[19:05] <pumpkinseed> i fixed it
[19:05] <cyberghoser1> pumpkinseed - glad to read it :)
[19:05] <pumpkinseed> amixer set -Dhw:0 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack',0 unmute
[19:05] <pumpkinseed> that command did it
[19:05] <musicpenguin> ectospasm, then what?
[19:06] <need_help> ectospasm how to use LVM ?
[19:06] <musicpenguin> ectospasm, i was on jaunty yesterday but blender was really garbled so i had to go back to 8.10...
[19:06] <ectospasm> need_help: you need to install Ubuntu using the alternate CD
[19:06] <ectospasm> musicpenguin: I dunno, I've never used blender
[19:06] <msaraujo> which is a good book for ubuntu server administration?
[19:06] <musicpenguin> ectospasm, oh ok..thanks though :)
[19:07] <Hodapp> Blender is fun.
[19:07] <gogeta> blarg]
[19:07] <gogeta> lol
[19:07] <musicpenguin> Hodapp, it is
[19:07] <Scunizi> msaraujo: Beginning Ubuntu Server Adin.  by van vugt .. available at B&N
[19:07] <toenail> got a question if i did sudo aptitude install ubuntustudio-desktop to install studio do i just do sudo aptitude uninstall ubuntustudio-desktop to remove , it because im having sound problems
[19:08] <toenail> so i would rather go back to regular ubuntu
[19:08] <InfoMoMo> Hey guys! Has anyone updated their GRUB to GRUB2 ? Thanks
[19:08] <ectospasm> toenail: aptitude -y remove ubuntustudio-desktop
[19:08] <gogeta> toenail you can also check the sound settings lol
[19:08] <msaraujo> Scunizi: and a really good one for shell scripting skills?
[19:08] <musicpenguin> how do you test a memory module...right now im at 512 cuz if i add both i get errors and linux wont load
[19:08] <thiebaude> InfoMoMo: is it in synaptic?
[19:08] <gogeta> msaraujo making a shell script is easy
[19:08] <Dr_Willis> musicpenguin:  the memtest item in the grub menus on most disrto/live cds is handy for that
[19:08] <ectospasm> msaraujo: the O'Reilly Bash book is good
[19:08] <msaraujo> humm
[19:09] <Dr_Willis> O'Reilly Bash book - is a must get
[19:09] <gogeta> just make a text file with the commands you whant then chmod +x it
[19:09] <musicpenguin> Dr_Willis, oh ok thanks...ill have to do that then :)
[19:09] <musicpenguin> bbl :)
[19:09] <thiebaude> !grub2
[19:09] <rubydiam_> guys.. is there any good torrent web interface .. which I can control from web
[19:09] <toenail> i did , problem is  im using alsa i have 3 sound cards installed , tring to record multiple instruments on different tracks , so if one wolume is lower than the other at the time of recording it i can just adjust the volume and wont have to rerecord
[19:09] <InfoMoMo> thiebaude: not yet, i will check
[19:09] <thiebaude> ok, thanks
[19:09] <Dr_Willis> rubydiam_:  many torrent clienbts have a web interface.. transmission does. and ktorrent does also
[19:09] <gogeta> rubydiam yes
[19:09] <Dr_Willis> 'web interface .. which I can control from web
[19:10] <rubydiam_> Dr_Willis: I will be installing on my slicehost slice
[19:10] <iceroot> i want to make a screenshot (area) like in kde. what is that app called from kde? or how to get it in gnome?
[19:10] <Dr_Willis> :) thats... made me chuckly.
[19:10] <gogeta> utorrent has web ingterface supporrt
[19:10] <Dr_Willis> rubydiam_:  that  maens very little to me...
[19:10] <rubydiam_> so there will be no gui available
[19:10]  * bc is terrified to upgrade the kernel after reading the channel for the last couple months
[19:10] <ectospasm> iceroot: hit printscreen
[19:10] <Dr_Willis> rubydiam_:  install vnc, and you can get a remote gui. :)
[19:10] <rubydiam_> Dr_Willis: which one is good web interface
[19:10] <Dr_Willis> rubydiam_:  they all work fine for my needs.. try them out and see
[19:10] <Hodapp> pffft, I upgraded my kernel the first time when I was 15 and the only thing that took awhile was the compilation
[19:10] <iceroot> ectospasm: i want the program from kde when i hit print there
[19:10] <need_help> how can i know if this is in RAID ?
[19:10] <fullmetalj> Hi, is any one on umuntu run mail server
[19:10] <InfoMoMo> thiebaude: it is in synaptic
[19:10] <sebsebseb> bc: if you do a kernel upgrade from the repo,  you should still have the old one staill availalbe as well, so if any problems
[19:10] <iceroot> ectospasm: ro select an area, window or fullscreen
[19:11] <thiebaude> InfoMoMo: thanks
[19:11] <ectospasm> iceroot: the screenshot tool should have that in it.
[19:11] <_Tristan> sometimes my graphics settings reset on their own and all my windows consolidate to my first desktop. My compiz settings also are forgotten. How do I fix this?
[19:11] <bc> Hodapp: same here, but with the nvidia problems lately in 9.04 I'm a little gun shy
[19:11] <gogeta> bc you can remove the old one later
[19:11] <iceroot> ectospasm: cant see it in 8.04 gnome if i press print
[19:11] <Scunizi> bc: if you've installed an nvidia driver downloaded direct from nvidia then download the latest and be prepaired to reinstall it.
[19:11] <bc> sebsebseb, gogeta: sounds like a plan
[19:11] <ectospasm> iceroot: printscreen
[19:12] <iceroot> ectospasm: i want to select an area like in kde!
[19:12] <ectospasm> the key on the keyboad that says "PrintScreen/SysRq"
[19:12] <bc> Scunizi: I install nvidia driver from hardware detection in system menu
[19:12] <iggy1> hello, i need some help :( my nvidia drivers dont work.. i always get black screen after reboot.. i tried other drivers but its always the same.. booting, splash, black screen.. the monitor seems working (LED is green; no warning like "no signal") but theres no output at all :(
[19:12] <iceroot> ectospasm: if i press print in kde, there a three options, fullscree, window and area which i can select
[19:12] <Scunizi> bc: then you should be fine. you might consider installing dkms from the repos as well.  That will help things that have a kernel mod automatically redo the mod on a new kernel.
[19:12] <ectospasm> iceroot: if you're in GNOME, try Applications > Accessories > Take Screenshot
[19:13] <iceroot> ectospasm: there is no area
[19:13] <_Tristan> once in a while my graphics level resets to normal. How do I fix this?
[19:13] <gogeta> iceroot install gimp
[19:13] <ectospasm> iceroot: there is in Jaunty
[19:13] <iceroot> gogeta: .....
[19:13] <iceroot> ectospasm: http://plasma.kde.org/media/ksnapshot_kde4.png   ksnapshot it is called i see
[19:14] <gogeta> lol
[19:14] <ectospasm> iceroot: yeah, but you're asking about the Gnome screenshot tool
[19:14] <iceroot> ectospasm: i am asking how to get the program from kde
[19:14] <iceroot> ectospasm: but now i have it
[19:14] <gogeta> LOL
[19:14] <wubrgamer> why is X leaking memory?
[19:14] <wubrgamer> it's using like
[19:14] <wubrgamer> 100MB
[19:14] <gogeta> gimp works
[19:14] <wubrgamer> is that normal?
[19:15] <ectospasm> iceroot: oh, OK
[19:15] <FloodBot1> wubrgamer: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:15] <_Tristan> my graphics level keeps reseting. How do I stop it?
[19:15] <zett> lo hai ppl
