[03:23] <chris> W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
[03:23] <Rug> What would cause slow CD/DVD burning?  (I have already enabled DMA)
[03:23] <slavik> what would you say to a script that lists all the packages in a system that aren't depended upon?
[03:23] <nuzzy> DCC send is a way to send files in IRC
[03:23] <nickrud> GotUbuntued, that's because libjavaplugin there is linked to the one in /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins which is linked to /etc/alternatives/ firefox-javaplugin.so which is linked to the file you just mentioned :)
[03:23] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984: alright thanks, sounds like this will be fun...
[03:23] <arrick> hey, if I change the name of a user in /etc/passwd it wont allow the user to logon anymore right?
[03:23] <flesh> Hi there people does anybody know is its possible to use a winmodem on Ubuntu?
[03:24] <tonyyarusso> flesh: Maybe.
[03:24] <GotUbuntued> nickrud, : Ok.... strange...
[03:24] <arrick> or can i delete the line that user is on?
[03:24] <flesh> maybe yes pr mayne not?
[03:24] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, if its an issue, I can compile you one.
[03:24] <tonyyarusso> flesh: Mine works, with a $20 driver.  Look around, starting with the linmodems site for info on yours.  Also,
[03:24] <tonyyarusso> !winmodem
[03:24] <ubotu> from memory, winmodem is See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto for instructions on setting up your modem (including winmodems). Additional info can be found at http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/
[03:24] <nickrud> GotUbuntued, it's part of a flexible system for redirecting between different applications that debian created years ago, it's actually quite logical
[03:25] <flesh> I dont have anyproblems since I'm using a external modem and it works fine but my bro just installed ubuno and it does not recognize his internal modem
[03:25] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984: alright, I will check it out an let you know. I am not using a linux box right now to chat, so I am not sure how to d/l from here to the linux box
[03:25] <flesh> ok so what I need is a driver to convert the winmodem into a linmodem?
[03:25] <tonyyarusso> flesh: Ah.  It depends on the chipset.  There are lots of things to check out, so don't let him give up easily.
[03:25] <tonyyarusso> flesh: Basically, yes.
[03:26] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, if I can find something else, I will let you know.
[03:26] <Rug> flesh: Make sure the built-in COM ports are disabled
[03:26] <arrick> IdleOne, you here?
[03:26] <arrick> evening tonyyarusso
[03:26] <flesh> thanks for the info I will look forward for some linmodem drivers
[03:26] <JanHammer> O_o
[03:26] <tonyyarusso> arrick: Hey.
[03:26] <flesh> ok good point
[03:26] <GotUbuntued> nickrud, : strange that the java thing doesnt work now. Need it so badly hehe
[03:26] <JanHammer> why was nuzzy banned
[03:26] <nickrud> GotUbuntued, yes strange indeed
[03:27] <arrick> tonyyarusso, I am not seeing the command for removing a user through terminal in man adduser do you happen to know it?
[03:27] <nickrud> arrick, sorry I missed your message, did you find deluser ?
[03:27] <AngryElf> what package do i need for divx support?
[03:27] <flesh> tony thanks for the help which one is better Ubuntu or Mandriva?
[03:27] <Rug> arrick: did you try rmuser ?
[03:27] <tonyyarusso> arrick: deluser or rmuser maybe?
[03:27] <arrick> thanks

[03:27] <arrick> sorry guys my bad
[03:28] <JanHammer> bimberi: he was the only one helping me with this :/
[03:28] <jadaz87> does anyone here have experience with joomla if so please meet me in #ubuntu-offtopic

[03:28] <bimberi> nalioth: you about?
[03:29] <AngryElf> i've got w32codecs installed and a divx file won't play in xine......is this offtopic?
[03:29] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984: i have the 2.6.12-9-286 kernel
[03:29] <nalioth> bimberi: yes i am
[03:29] <Rug> AngryElf: can any other divx/xvid file play?
[03:29] <bimberi> nalioth: linuxlover and nuzzy innocently typed d.c.c. s.e.n.d. earlier and got kick/banned by Ubugtu
[03:29] <GMachine_24> evening. i need to edit the fstab file on my ubuntu main drive by booting with the live ubuntu disk and then . . . opening a terminal and from there i'm not sure. can anyone point me in the right direction please?
[03:30] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, put it in the /home/username dir of your linux box, and open a terminal, then run sudo dpkg -i packagename.deb
[03:30] <nalioth> bimberi: ok, i take it they've had time to think about their typing skills?
[03:30] <calamari> nuzzy is asking in ubuntu+1 why he got banned.. not really my business just thought I'd pass the message to him if there is one.. or if an op would speak with him
[03:30] <bimberi> nalioth: lol, yes, a bit
[03:30] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984: oh, I meant, that is the current kernel I am running
[03:31] <cmatheson> i've got like 8 billion forms i need to enter into a mysql database... using insert statements doesn't seem like the way to go... can anyone recommend a good gui-tool? (or maybe just typing it into a text-file and then pulling it into the table would be better)?
[03:31] <jsestri2> my ubuntu was working fine, but this last time i booted up, my mouse dosent respond
[03:31] <nalioth> bimberi: that do it?
[03:31] <Rug> GMachine_24: to edit the fstab, fir you need to access the partition it's on.  (can't you just boot from it normally?) or can you access it by using your liveCD?
[03:31] <FlannelKing> cmatheson: text file, then import, correct.
[03:31] <thecrazymonk> hey, when i try to mount my drives (partition c at dev/hdc1, drive d: at dev/hdd1), i get two drives on my desktop, windows and windows(2), but when i open either one, the only files that show up are the ones that were on the last drive mounted
[03:31] <bimberi> nalioth: i think so thanks.  is that worth an ops call?
[03:32] <JanHammer> woot, nuzzy
[03:32] <GotUbuntued> nickrud, : In firefox... i write "about:plugins" in the adressbar and it doesnt list java there
[03:32] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, oh. I think thats as high as breezy will go without intervention.
[03:32] <GMachine_24> rug: it won't boot - i get an error message because it cannot read from a drive mounted on a raid card. so i need to boot somehow so i can comment out that line in the fstab file.
[03:32] <nuzzy> I dunno why I got banned...nalioth...u there?
[03:32] <nalioth> bimberi: it was handled well
[03:32] <nalioth> nuzzy: be careful of what you type
[03:32] <Rug> cmatheson: I had had the (dis)pleasure of going through the exact same thing, but for me it was 13,000+ fields.   paste the data into a spreadsheet, export it as a .csv   Then you can inport into your DB easily.
[03:32] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, there are proprietary drivers for your motherboard. Let me find them.
[03:32] <nuzzy> will do
[03:32] <GMachine_24> rug: i need to get there using a live boot disk but i'm not sure how.
[03:32] <bimberi> nuzzy: Ubugtu is configured to automatically kick and ban anyone who types D.C.C. S.E.N.D. in the channel
[03:32] <alex_> does anyone know any good software to run XP Inside of ubuntu
[03:32] <nickrud> nuzzy, because you typed d.c.c s.e.n.d, it's an automatic ban because of exploits
[03:32] <nuzzy> doh!
[03:33] <nuzzy> sorry
[03:33] <chris> ok im still having problems compiling
[03:33] <chris> im gonna send exactly what happened
[03:33] <Rug> GMachine_24: one sec.

[03:34] <GMachine_24> chris: can you use the paste bin?
[03:34] <nuzzy> I'm trying to think of what would cause that since I never use live CD's
[03:34] <GotUbuntued> nickrud, : Do you have the wiki link
[03:34] <_jason> chris: please, use a pastebin like http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/  and to solve our problem, install build-essential
[03:34] <_jason> chris: s/our/your
[03:34] <_deadlycow21> jeff303: you may be able to just set it somewhere in options
[03:34] <_mark> I got a good mystery every cd I put in my cdrw is being read as a blank disc
[03:34] <comrade> how do I update my kernel from the 386 to 686?  is there a howto somewhere?
[03:34] <nickrud> GotUbuntued, make sure that ubuntu's firefox is using java properly after you remove ff1.5  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[03:34] <JanHammer> nuzzy: isn't it virtually the same? the problem is in the booting and not the loading of all the main things
[03:34] <crweb> comrade: just apt-get it
[03:35] <chris> ok ill try this
[03:35] <celerex> comrade: what kind of CPU do you have?
[03:35] <crweb> comrade: and reboot
[03:35] <bimberi> comrade: sudo aptitude install linux-686
[03:35] <JanHammer> if you know what I mean
[03:35] <thecrazymonk> hey, when i try to mount my drives (partition c at dev/hdc1, drive d: at dev/hdd1), i get two drives on my desktop, windows and windows(2), but when i open either one, the only files that show up are the ones that were on the last drive mounted
[03:35] <comrade> athlon xp
[03:35] <linux_lover> What are the reasons for being banned when not using profanity or spamming?
[03:35] <jeff303> _deadlycow21: there is nothing I can find through gnome, can't find anyone online
[03:35] <comrade> I should get 686 for that right
[03:35] <jeff303> _deadlycow21: any*thing* online
[03:35] <_jason> chris: do you know that gnome-mud is in the repositories?
[03:35] <nuzzy> yeah, it is for the most part.  Can you describe what comes up and wen it hangs?
[03:35] <bimberi> linux: Ubugtu is configured to automatically kick and ban anyone who types D.C.C. S.E.N.D. in the channel
[03:35] <_mark> anyone ever have that happen before?
[03:36] <bimberi> linux_lover: Ubugtu is configured to automatically kick and ban anyone who types D.C.C. S.E.N.D. in the channel
[03:36] <chris> what?
[03:36] <JanHammer> nuzzy: you know the main loading? right when it finishes it dies
[03:36] <_jason> linux_lover: it was a false positive on an exploit
[03:36] <JanHammer> locks up
[03:36] <linux_lover> bimberi Ahhhh...
[03:36] <_jason> chris: you can install gnome-mud using synaptic
[03:36] <_jason> !info gnome-mud
[03:36] <ubotu> gnome-mud: (The GNOME MUD client), section universe/gnome, is optional. Version: 0.10.7-1 (breezy), Packaged size: 364 kB, Installed size: 1280 kB
[03:36] <chris> ok
[03:36] <chris> ill try
[03:36] <comrade> bimberi, what's aptitude?  I thought it was apt-get
[03:36] <nickrud> thecrazymonk, could you put up your /etc/fstab on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[03:36] <_jason> ubotu: tell chris about universe
[03:36] <linux_lover> nuzzy What was the command you said to run once I had that .deb?
[03:37] <bimberi> !tell comrade about aptitude
[03:37] <arrick> ok , how about changing a directory name from terminal guys?
[03:37] <thecrazymonk> nickrud: yes
[03:37] <jin> whats samba
[03:37] <_jason> arrick: mv
[03:37] <cmatheson> FlannelKing, Rug: thanks, i'll do that
[03:37] <nuzzy> you run "sudo dpkg -i filename.deb" without quotes
[03:37] <arrick> _jason I want to rename not mv
[03:37] <_jason> arrick: same
[03:37] <arrick> ok
[03:37] <crimsun> october: does it _only_ do 1680x1050?
[03:38] <Rug> GMachine_24: What is the Live CD?
[03:38] <linux_lover> nuzzy is that the same as extracting?
[03:38] <GMachine_24> ubuntu 5.1
[03:38] <_mark> _jason: turns out that modem I was tryin to get woring was a dead modem : \
[03:38] <_mark> working*
[03:38] <_jason> _mark: yeah that makes it tough :P
[03:38] <GMachine_24> rug: i have a knoppix live disk as well
[03:39] <linux_lover> nuzzy When I tried extracting it has two tar.gz files in it.  When I extract those they are folders both named "."
[03:39] <nuzzy> .deb files are Debian package files, similar to .rpm files for RedHat and SuSe the -i is to install it
[03:39] <thecrazymonk> nickrud: just posted the fstab
[03:39] <jsestri2> can anyone help me get my mouse working?
[03:39] <GMachine_24> rub: what makes me mad is that this is happening because the stupid RAID card isn't always recognized.
[03:39] <_mark> so has anyone ever had a cdrw read everything as a blank disc? asking one last time
[03:39] <linux_lover> nuzzy so "sudo dpkg -i filename.deb" is unpack and install in most logical manner?
[03:39] <nuzzy> yes
[03:40] <GMachine_24> rub: although it is by the bios
[03:40] <october> crimsun, yeah
[03:40] <carthik> jsestri2, what sort of mouse is it?
[03:40] <october> crimsun, heh, sorry I was downstairs
[03:40] <Rug> GMachine_24: when Knoppix boots up it should auto-mount all your old partitions.  Can you go there?
[03:40] <october> crimsun, it is setup to run at 1680x1050
[03:40] <d3adlycow21> ?
[03:40] <d3adlycow21> good
[03:40] <GMachine_24> rug: Ok, i'll give it a try. i'll be back and let you know. THANK YOU.
[03:40] <october> crimsun,  but you'd think it should run in Windowed mode
[03:40] <nuzzy> Jan...I think it's a hard disk probelm
[03:40] <crimsun> october: if it only does that one mode, then totem will crash. Your lcd must be configured to switch to other modes, too, like 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, etc.
[03:40] <AngryElf> everytime i try to open up a torrent, it times out, i've been testing this on files that have several hundred seeds.  I'm guessing the problem is on my end, what could it be?
[03:41] <jin> what is samba?
[03:41] <JanHammer> nuzzy: I don't follow
[03:41] <crweb> AngryElf: let your routher do UPnP
[03:41] <Rug> AngryElf: are your ports open?
[03:41] <october> crimsun, is that something I need to do with the LCD itself?
[03:41] <jsestri2> carthik: it was working before
[03:41] <carthik> AngryElf, a firewall on your router?
[03:41] <Rug> =)
[03:41] <jsestri2> carthik: then i restarted and the mouse stopped responding
[03:41] <carthik> jsestri2, yes, but to begin somewhere, what sort of mouse is it?
[03:41] <crimsun> october: no, X modes, like !fixres
[03:41] <comrade> bimberi, so once I run that command and reboot, the new kernel will be installed?
[03:41] <october> ok...
[03:41] <AngryElf> mmk, what ports do i need?
[03:41] <october> I thought I saw other resolutions in there
[03:41] <carthik> jsestri2, are you sure it is plugged in right? try unpluggin it and plugging it in again.
[03:42] <october> in my x.org.conf
[03:42] <october> crimsun, http://occy.net/tmp/xorg.conf
[03:42] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, are you still there?
[03:42] <Rug> 6880-68890 ?  or close to that
[03:42] <Rug> 6890 rather
[03:42] <jsestri2> carthik: yeah, its working now, i've switched to windows to make sure, its a Rosewill mouse. It had been working fine for a while in ubuntu, and the last time I restarted it stopped
[03:42] <AngryElf> i found it, thanx guys
[03:42] <october> ubotu, tell october about fixres
[03:42] <nuzzy> actually scratch that Jan...what video card do you use
[03:42] <jsestri2> carthik: is there a way to re-run the setup for the mouse?
[03:42] <Rug> What would cause slow CD/DVD burning?  (I have already enabled DMA)
[03:42] <october> heh
[03:43] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984:  yeah
[03:43] <gnomefreak> how can you tell what bus id is for a pci card?
[03:43] <crimsun> october: looks fine. what about /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[03:43] <JanHammer> nuzzy: geforce fx5500 PCI
[03:43] <Rug> lspci
[03:43] <JanHammer> TerminX: fx?
[03:43] <nuzzy> linux_lover: this is the command: "sudo dpkg -i lineakconfig_0.3.2-1_i386.deb"
[03:43] <JanHammer> er
[03:43] <carthik> jsestri2, you can try $sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to make sure the mouse is configured right.
[03:43] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, run lsmod | grep force
[03:43] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, and let me see the output
[03:43] <iRRVi> how come theres no /dev/wlan0 ?
[03:43] <TerminX> JanHammer: if you're using X-Chat, I recommend typing /set completion_amount 0
[03:43] <carthik> jsestri2, what does $dmesg |grep mice tell you?
[03:43] <nuzzy> Jan:  The LivCD may be hanging on that card...it may have trouble recognizing the specs
[03:43] <alex_> does anyone know any good software to run XP Inside of ubuntu
[03:44] <nickrud> thecrazymonk, I just sat back down. Did you post?
[03:44] <october> crimsun, http://occy.net/tmp/Xorg.0.log
[03:44] <Rug> alex_: VMware
[03:44] <carthik> alex_, qemu
[03:44] <JanHammer> nuzzy: it runs fine on this PC though with vmplayer
[03:44] <IamEthos> okay
[03:44] <gnomefreak> 02:0b:00 i dont think its gonna like tat too much
[03:44] <jsestri2> carthik: i'll run that next restart as well, i think i might have f'd up a module but i can't be sure, i was messing with ivtv the last time before it stopped working
[03:44] <alex_> Rug is VMware free
[03:44] <IamEthos> how come, when I compile software, 9 times out of 10 it doesn't work
[03:44] <IamEthos> what am I doing wrong?
[03:44] <carthik> jsestri2, what does $dmesg |grep mice tell you?
[03:44] <nickrud> thecrazymonk, yes, you did :) change the second /media/windows to media/windows2 or something
[03:44] <Rug> Free as in stolen beer
[03:44] <nuzzy> hmmm...then I'm not sure Jan
[03:44] <jsestri2> carthik: i have to restart to try it, let me brb
[03:44] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984: "lsmod | grep force" doesn't provide any input
[03:45] <october> crimsun, it was playing until I tried to slide the slider to a different place in the movie
[03:45] <october> at least I think it was
[03:45] <nickrud> thecrazymonk, you're mounting the second partition on top of the first
[03:45] <nuzzy> Jan...did you try the ubuntuforums?
[03:45] <JanHammer> nuzzy: nope
[03:45] <Rug> alex_: no it isn't
[03:45] <nuzzy> I would DEFINITELY try there
[03:45] <alex_> did anyone get the new nvidia drivers yet?
[03:45] <carthik> IamEthos, maybe you have unmet requirements most of the time. Reading the readmes and install docs are neccessary for installing from source, which is why it is not so recommended on Ubuntu...
[03:45] <alex_> they arnt showing up in the repos
[03:46] <linux_lover> nuzzy I received an error when trying to use the sudo dpkg...
[03:46] <Juhaz> vmware player and vmware server are free, takes some tweaking to get the xp on them, though
[03:46] <crimsun> october: ok, is it reproducible with mplayer?
[03:46] <nuzzy> what was the error?
[03:46] <october> crimsun, nod
[03:46] <carthik> alex_, for dapper support, please try #ubuntu+1
[03:46] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, run sudo modprobe forcedeth
[03:46] <october> crimsun, does the same thing under mplayer too
[03:46] <IamEthos> carthik: but it seems like I can never find anything I need in the repos
[03:46] <october> crimsun, tries to start and then farts.
[03:46] <october> crimsun, ;)
[03:46] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984: it asks for a password, and then nothing
[03:46] <crimsun> october: dapper?

[03:47] <october> crimsun, yessir... /me shuffles
[03:47] <cafuego> !paste
[03:47] <ubotu> Please don't flood the channel! For best results use the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and tell people the URL
[03:47] <Rug> IamEthos: perhaps you would be more interested in Gentoo?  Their stuff is usually more uptodate
[03:47] <october> heh
[03:47] <linux_lover> <kicks self...>
[03:47] <crimsun> october: (normally #ubuntu+1) can you try with mplayer -vo x11?
[03:47] <thecrazymonk> nickrud: thanks
[03:48] <october> crimsun, heh, yeah.... one sec buddy
[03:48] <thecrazymonk> nickrud: sorry i ran downstairs and got some food
[03:48] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, run lsmod and see if forcedeth is listed
[03:48] <nickrud> thecrazymonk, np, I did the same :)
[03:48] <linux_lover> nuzzy http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11918
[03:49] <Rug> lspci |grep nVidia
[03:49] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984: yes it is
[03:49] <IamEthos> isn't Gentoo a pain to install though/
[03:49] <linux_lover> nuzzy I think it means I need to shutdown lineak itself, but I can't find the process in Sys Manager.
[03:49] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984: forcedeth     19072       0
[03:50] <Rug> IamEthos: yes and no.   If you are patient there are plenty of guides online that could help you
[03:50] <IamEthos> what is halfway between Ubuntu and Gentoo
[03:50] <x03> does ubuntu have a "special" edition to laptops?
[03:50] <dyrne> IamEthos: dapper? :)
[03:50] <crimsun> IamEthos: The Bad Place.
[03:50] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, alright, run dhclient
[03:51] <Rug> dyrne: LOL good one
[03:51] <Dr_Willis> x03,  nope. it works great on my laptops.
[03:51] <bimberi> x03: no
[03:51] <october> crimsun, 2 things
[03:51] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, if it works. you should be able to get an IP address through the NIC.
[03:51] <skeen> I have a Belkin USB Network Adapter. How do I install this on my ubuntu?
[03:51] <october> crimsun,  1. I noticed it said permission denied... I did sudo space that command and it worked.
[03:51] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984:  it doesn't work.
[03:51] <october> crimsun, 2. It won't go full screen... it only stays the smaller size window
[03:51] <october> and if you resize it
[03:52] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984:  sit0: unknow harware address type 776
[03:52] <october> it still stays the same small size
[03:52] <crimsun> october: pass -fs ?
[03:52] <jsestri2> carthik: the reconfigure had no effect, and the dmesg | grep mice just gave me something along the lines of "mice is PS2 mouse
[03:52] <crimsun> october: also, pastebin the error as non-root
[03:52] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984:  can't create /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.leases: permission denied
[03:52] <october> crimsun, k... I just happened to be here on the lappie... this is now my wifes.  Migrating to a desktop.  Let me open up XChat up there.
[03:52] <october> ;)
[03:52] <nickrud> IamEthos, what is it you're trying to compile?
[03:52] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984:  can't create /var/run/dhclient.pid: permission denied
[03:52] <october> back in a bit.
[03:53] <IamEthos> wxWidgets
[03:53] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, run it as root.
[03:53] <IamEthos> I want to install Comical
[03:53] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984:  duh, good call
[03:53] <crimsun> IamEthos: why? Is the version in our repo not sufficient?
[03:53] <IamEthos> which also needs to be compiled and installed
[03:53] <IamEthos> comical requires a later version
[03:53] <carthik> jsestri2, hmm so you reconfigured xorg, and the mouse is all figured out - I am out of ideas as to what could be wrong here. Do you remember any funky bootup messages?
[03:53] <crimsun> it requires 2.6?
[03:54] <IamEthos> 2.6.2
[03:54] <jsestri2> carthik: thats the odd thing, i feel like some module just isn't loaded, but i dont know how to figure out which one
[03:54] <phoul> Is there any programs that can unrar things?
[03:54] <Trae> crimsun, back... on sec.
[03:54] <JarG0n> What app in Ubuntu is the most efficient at seeding torrents?
[03:54] <phoul> !rar
[03:54] <ubotu> rar is, like, totally, a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FileCompression
[03:54] <Rug> phoul: rar
[03:54] <carthik> IamEthos, Comical. well, I have comical installed (I had before I got on Dapper) and I dn't remember having issues.
[03:54] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984:  uh, this may sound stupid, but how do I access it as root with ubuntu? I am used to knoppix which is a but more obvious
[03:54] <IamEthos> carthik: really?
[03:54] <cartesian1984> cartesian1984, just add sudo before the command.
[03:54] <IamEthos> perhaps I should instead shoot for an older version?
[03:54] <Rug> JarG0n: The original bittorrent client
[03:54] <konfuzed> hey there, I want to download the kernel sources for breezy and latest gcc so that I can put them on a disc with the nvidia drivers isntaller and then take the disc to my buddies where there is no running internet. How or where do I download just those packages with out installing them?
[03:54] <cartesian1984> WTF?
[03:54] <cartesian1984> How did I address myself?!
[03:55] <arrick> hey if I want to force a directory to be deleted, is the command 'sudo rmdir -f /path/'?
[03:55] <_jason> cartesian1984: you need to stop smoking that stuff
[03:55] <skeen> Anyone know of a tutorial for installing my Belkin USB Network Adapter? I can do it simply on Mandriva, using ndiswrapper..
[03:55] <JarG0n> Rug: Is that accessible from within the supported Ubuntu distribution?
[03:55] <carthik> jsestri2, what does $dmesg | grep psmouse tell you?
[03:55] <Trae> crimsun, http://pastebin.com/650578  Don't laugh, my wife wanted the movie. :)
[03:55] <Trae> heh
[03:55] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984:  ok, it is working, what am I to look for again?
[03:55] <_jason> arrick: rm -rf directory
[03:55] <arrick> thanks
[03:55] <Rug> JarG0n: it's in the non-free repos
[03:55] <carthik> jsestri2, I am assuming you have a ps/2 mouse here
[03:55] <Trae> I've gotten about half-way thorugh it... it's not that bad so far
[03:55] <linux_lover> nuzzy Any idea?
[03:55] <Trae> it isn't pr0n
[03:55] <Trae> heh
[03:55] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, let me check, I forget what one does next.
[03:55] <_jason> arrick: although if it is empty, your command would work
[03:56] <jsestri2> carthik: yeah i do, i'll have to restart again to check that
[03:56] <Rug> JarG0n: ack sorry
[03:56] <carthik> IamEthos, if you want to wait for 5 minutes I can try installing Comical again.
[03:56] <jsestri2> carthik: anything else you can think of to run at the same time?
[03:56] <Rug> JarG0n: yes it is
[03:56] <JarG0n> hrm.....  non-free  *wonders what that means*
[03:56] <crimsun> Trae: x11, not X11
[03:56] <Trae> ahh
[03:56] <JarG0n> cool
[03:56] <IamEthos> carthik: sure
[03:56] <Rug> JarG0n: I was thinking of a different conversation
[03:56] <freebird> hey there dudes , can some one hlp me with trying to find a free messenger that is usable with <Gnome, Ubuntu, Linux > that supports a web cam, I have family far away the kids should talk to but had a technician remove all windows applications.. hlp
[03:56] <slavik> !mkv
[03:56] <ubotu> methinks mkv is Matroska video format. You can play it with vlc, see !vlc
[03:56] <carthik> jsestri2, I'm sorry this is such a pain for you, having to restart. Maybe in Linux, you can use irssi or bithx to chat, which runs from the console.
[03:56] <slavik> !vlc
[03:56] <ubotu> hmm... vlc is a video/audio player that supports almost everything - See http://www.videolan.org/ for more information (VLC is in the universe repository)
[03:56] <jsestri2> alright
[03:56] <Trae> crimsun, ok.. that plays normally as user
[03:57] <IamEthos> now I just have to hope that this "make" that i've started for wxwidgets stops some day
[03:57] <JarG0n> Rug: thanks... what is is referred to as in Synaptic
[03:57] <Trae> crimsun, still no full screen must be different mode issue
[03:57] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, pastebin the results.
[03:57] <JarG0n> ?
[03:57] <Dr_Willis> freebird,  i hear some of the newer versions of gaim have some web cam support.
[03:57] <Rug> bittorrent
[03:57] <crimsun> Trae: limitation of x11 driver.
[03:57] <JarG0n> doh
[03:57] <freebird> Oh i have Gaim
[03:57] <JarG0n> :-D
[03:57] <Trae> crimsun, but my xorg.conf seems to have proper modes right?
[03:57] <crimsun> Trae: yep
[03:57] <carthik> jsestri2, no. one thing you can do to help other figure out the problem is to paste /var/log/kern.log the output of $dmesg, the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and the output of lsmod to the pastebin
[03:57] <dyrne> freebird: you can also stream webcam and recieve pretty easy using vlc but that would be in addition to gaim.
[03:58] <jsestri2> carthik: alright
[03:58] <JarG0n> Ah, yes... It's almost time for Desparate Housewives to come on ABC
[03:58] <freebird> but how do I go about updating gaim <not very familliar with linux update process> ulgh
[03:58] <slavik> crimsun: I wrote a perl script that makes a list of all packages installed that aren't dependant on by other packages
[03:59] <slavik> freebird: don't
[03:59] <Trae> crimsun, so I'm simply SOL on this LCD AFAYK?
[03:59] <Trae> heh
[03:59] <crimsun> Trae: try this: from a terminal, invoke gstreamer-properties . In the Video tab, choose the XWindows (No Xv) option for Default Video Output, then try totem again
[03:59] <mike__> anyone else getting sound to work at youtube and google video?
[03:59] <mike__> i'm using the official flash plugin
[03:59] <Rug> JarG0n: DH is not on TV tonight
[03:59] <_jason> slavik: have you heard of deborphan?
[03:59] <slavik> _jason: yes, couldn't get it to work
[03:59] <Trae> crimsun, k
[03:59] <_jason> slavik: ah
[04:00] <scalista> www.mrtwig.com
[04:00] <linux_lover> Anyone heard of lineak?  Anyone using it?
[04:00] <scalista> mrtwig.net
[04:00] <slavik> they aren't orphaned packages, just ones that aren't required by others
[04:00] <Trae> crimsun, http://pastebin.com/650579
[04:01] <carthik> IamEthos, trying now, please ping me in 5 minutes or so
[04:01] <Dr_Willis> linux_lover,  i havent had to use it in ages.
[04:01] <Rug> _deadlycow21 then get out
[04:02] <JarG0n> Rug: nooo!!!
[04:02] <_jason> slavik: may I see how you wrote your script out of curiousity?
[04:02] <_deadlycow21> lol :P
[04:02] <linux_lover> Dr_Willis I'm having serious problems getting the lineakconfig app installed.
[04:02] <Rug> JarG0n: yeah, my wife is throwing a hissy fit 'cause she thinks it's my fault
[04:02] <scalista> im gunna go fuck a nigger
[04:02] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984:  should I have the linux box connected to the cable modem when running dhclient?
[04:02] <_jason> !ops
[04:02] <ubotu> Help! lilo, fabbione, lamont, Keybuk, jdub, mdz, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot, ompaul, rob or Hobbsee
[04:02] <Trae> scalista, hey
[04:03] <Trae> scalista, that's uncalld for
[04:03] <Dr_Willis> linux_lover,  theres a kde front end ive used.. but basiucially i read the docs a lot.. and be sure to not run it twice by mistake.
[04:03] <hvthang> hi
[04:03] <JarG0n> Rug: lol
[04:03] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, yeah.
[04:03] <freebird> Dr willis do I down load the newest version of gaim throut the <add applications>
[04:03] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, otherwise it probably wont do anything relevant.
[04:03] <Trae> nalioth, tx
[04:03] <freebird> through*
[04:03] <Dr_Willis> linux_lover,  its one of those programs it pays to read the docs on.
[04:03] <slavik> hmm, I have an mkv file for which subs are not shown
[04:03] <Dr_Willis> freebird,  i doubt if thats the latest one.
[04:04] <linux_lover> Dr_Willis I'm using gnome.  I've tried installing the KDE version, the .deb version, the tar.gz version...All give me errors at the "make" step.
[04:04] <IamEthos> how do you remove an application that you installed via make install?
[04:04] <crimsun> Trae: does totem play it without segving?
[04:04] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984:  alright, I have to disconnect, but I will brb with the results
[04:04] <Trae> crimsun, naw, it barfs tooo
[04:04] <nickrud> linux_lover, why not just install the ones in ubuntu?
[04:04] <_jason> IamEthos: try make uninstall if you still have the source and hope that was put it
[04:04] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, alright, good luck, reboot after running the command,
[04:04] <_jason> IamEthos: in the future, use checkinstall instead
[04:04] <zP-Osama> anyone have any luck with 2.6.16 kernel?
[04:04] <_jason> ubotu: tell IamEthos about checkinstall
[04:04] <Trae> crimsun, odd eh?
[04:05] <Dr_Willis> linux_lover,   you did instrall the 'build-essentials' and other developer libs and tools?
[04:05] <linux_lover> nickrud I have lineakd (the actual app) installed.   Have you tried the binary-only Nvidia drivers?
[04:05] <nickrud> linux_lover, there is no lineakdconfig in ubuntu ;)
[04:05] <Trae> crimsun, I think I installed the drivers from Ubuntu
[04:05] <konfuzed> hey there, I want to download the kernel sources for breezy and latest gcc so that I can put them on a disc with the nvidia drivers isntaller and then take the disc to my buddies where there is no running internet. How or where do I download just those packages with out installing them?
[04:05] <IamEthos> oh
[04:05] <hvthang> hi everybody
[04:05] <IamEthos> well that's nice
[04:05] <Trae> crimsun, so, I'm guessing that's no
[04:06] <Dr_Willis> linux_lover,  half the job of the  the program - is getting the configs right.
[04:06] <Dr_Willis> :P
[04:06] <IamEthos> does Gentoo use a repository system for installing things too?
[04:06] <linux_lover> nickrud Not in the repos...
[04:06] <crimsun> Trae: they may be installed, but they're not being used. 'nv' is, not 'nvidia'.
[04:06] <Dr_Willis> their web site has examplkea also.
[04:06] <Dr_Willis> IamEthos,  yes.
[04:06] <IdleOne> konfuzed, packages.ubuntu.com
[04:06] <hvthang> i'm newcomer
[04:06] <Trae> crimsun, ahhhh
[04:06] <Trae> duh
[04:06] <Trae> crimsun, one sec
[04:06] <Trae> crimsun, yeah
[04:06] <nickrud> linux_lover, if you got the leaneakdconfig from somewhere else, it probably won't work
[04:06] <IamEthos> Dr_Willis: does it use apt-get?
[04:06] <dyrne> konfuzed: maybe try apt-zip
[04:06] <Trae> let me re-run that thingy
[04:07] <cartesian1984> IamEthos, the ebuild/emerge system. I think it compiles practically everything from source.
[04:07] <linux_lover> Dr Willis nickrud I think I'm going to give up on this one...I've been working one this one bloody app for 3 days now..
[04:07] <Dr_Willis> IamEthos,  Gentoo is not Ubuntu or debian based at all. :) so No.
[04:07] <Trae> crimsun, let me restart bud
[04:07] <Trae> crimsun, back in a sec
[04:07] <konfuzed> apt-zip that sounds kewl
[04:07] <bimberi> konfuzed: download via http://packages.ubuntu.com
[04:07] <cartesian1984> IamEthos, so you use emerge in place of apt-get
[04:07] <linux_lover> Dr Willis nickrud Not worth it just to have full functionality of my KB.  I'd rather spend 10
[04:07] <slavik> Dr_Willis: Ubuntu is Debian based ...
[04:07] <nickrud> linux_lover, there's a klineakconfig, you could always aptitude install it, then aptitude remove it when done :)
[04:07] <slavik> oh, nvm
[04:08] <konfuzed> dyrne, bimberi thanks for packages.ubuntu.com
[04:08] <Dr_Willis> slavik,  i never  said it wasent. :P
[04:08] <freebird> ok I found out i have Gnome Ubuntu 2.12.1,  do i Get a newer version of Ubuntu then a newer version of Gaim to use the web cam < kids dad is on my back about web cam with them>
[04:08] <linux_lover> Dr Willis nickrud ...dollars on a new KB that ubuntu recognizes in the first place...
[04:08] <slavik> just re-read what you said
[04:08] <IamEthos> cartesian1984, I see
[04:08] <zP-Osama> has anyone been able to get the 2.6.16 kernel running? X wouldn't run for me when I tried it
[04:08] <slavik> heh
[04:08] <slavik> gentoo is freebsd based :P
[04:08] <IamEthos> can you install Gentoo with Gnome by default? or are you stuck with KDE?
[04:08] <jeff303> does anyone know how to disable "middle click paste"
[04:08] <cartesian1984> zP-Osama, hey Osama. How are those caves?
[04:08] <Dr_Willis> IamEthos,  why not go read the Gentoo web site?
[04:08] <slavik> IamEthos: Gentoo can be installed with anything that you compile
[04:08] <linux_lover> nickrud First, I don't know what aptitude is, second, it's just not worth spending another 8 hours on this bloody KB.
[04:09] <Rug> jeff303: dear-god why would you want to?
[04:09] <Dr_Willis> with Gentoo you install what you want.   I looked at all of them and a few are slightly different models.  None worked.
[04:09] <Trae> crimsun, I'm so sorry man
[04:09] <IdleOne> konfuzed, np
[04:09] <zP-Osama> cartesian1984: i dunno what i did wrong but when i booted it it went to failsafe and i couldnt get x to start at all
[04:09] <Trae> crimsun, Just got the new Gateway display....
[04:10] <konfuzed> dyrne, apt-zip doesnt seem to be in my system or at least no man pages.
[04:10] <Trae> crimsun, I should have known better to re-run that glx enable thing
[04:10] <nickrud> !tell linux_lover about aptitude
[04:10] <linux_lover> nickrud If I could import a file to that list, I'd be in heaven, but apparently what's there is there and that's it.
[04:10] <cartesian1984> zP-Osama, you could have left support out for your display/video drivers.
[04:10] <crimsun> Trae: ok.
[04:10] <zP-Osama> cartesian1984: i didnt even see anything come up for that....
[04:10] <Trae> crimsun, thanks so much for helping.   Try running startx and take down the error message, pastebin it somewhere.
[04:10] <Trae> (a keg more like it)
[04:11] <konfuzed> dyrne, so I could use that apt-zip to download and prepare a zip file of pacakges?
[04:11] <Trae> crimsun, is there something like a "Volunteer Tip Jar" around here?
[04:11] <zP-Osama> cartesian1984: already uninstalled the package. it was messing up my old kernel's x too :/
[04:11] <konfuzed> can that file then be used as a sources.list address
[04:11] <dyrne> konfuzed: syntax is basically like apt-get yah if its in repos it should be pretty easy
[04:11] <fiendskull9> how do i get teamspeak to use my Logitech USB headset?
[04:11] <linux_lover> nickrud I don't think I want to mess with aptitude.  It's apparently a little buggy and I can't trouble-shoot my way out of a wet paper bag.
[04:11] <Trae> crimsun, :)
[04:11] <crimsun> Trae: not really, or at least not that I'm aware
[04:12] <zP-Osama> cartesian1984: just wonderin how other people fared with it
[04:12] <slavik> ok, I need help
[04:12] <Rug> jeff303: sorry, I find I NEED that now.  I am practically useless on a Windows PC without that kind of feature.  Yes I know that you can disable it, but I don't know how
[04:12] <Trae> crimsun, well, if you need any graphics stuff done, you let me know ok?
[04:12] <Trae> crimsun, of you if you need any CSS help
[04:12] <linux_lover> Thanks guys, GN.
[04:12] <arrick> !justask
[04:12] <ubotu> Ask your question and we'll try to answer it.
[04:12] <slavik> mkv that has subs doesn't display them
[04:12] <nickrud> linux_lover, I've been using aptitude for over 5 years, and have never been bitten by any bugs.
[04:12] <crimsun> Trae: 10-4
[04:12] <Trae> crimsun, ;)
[04:12] <cartesian1984> zP-Osama, try changing the driver in your xorg.conf to vesa.
[04:12] <jeff303> Rug: ok thanks anyway
[04:12] <pvd2006> DO you think its too early to teach a 3 year old how to use linux?
[04:12] <Trae> okies... /me goes to finish watching the movie!
[04:12] <Trae> hehe
[04:12] <arrick> noooooo
[04:12] <fiendskull9> how can i get Teamspeak to use my Logitech USB headset
[04:12] <zP-Osama> cartesian1984: vesa is for ATI or NV? I have ATI
[04:13] <Rug> fiendskull9: stop repeating the question
[04:13] <IdleOne> pvd2006, never to old or to young
[04:13] <jeff303> how can I modify firefox's plugins so I can have the pdf handler be evince rather than acroread?
[04:13] <konfuzed> pvd2006, my 4 year uses edubuntu
[04:13] <zP-Osama> fiendskull9: OSS shud automagically recognize it

[04:14] <arrick> he learns quick
[04:15] <zP-Osama> cartesian1984: alright well ill attempt it tomorrow. getting a little late :P
[04:15] <arrick> hahahehe
[04:15] <Kyral> arrick: whoops wrong tab complete
[04:15] <konfuzed> nickrud, if you get little ones started on the wrong path they have to eventualy enlearn or just drop all the wrong ways of dealing with computers ie the microsoft approach
[04:15] <devnull> anyone know why my synaptics touchpad would stop working correctly after a recompile of the kernel?
[04:15] <carthik> IamEthos, still there? I installed Comical 0.7 successfully, 0.8 has a bug in the source.
[04:15] <arrick> he's been learning command line helping me set up and tear down terminals
[04:15] <JarG0n> um, after I clicked on the available updates in the Ubuntu panel, I get this message: Could not grab your keyboard. A malicious client may be eavesdropping
[04:15] <JarG0n> on your session.
[04:15] <nickrud> arrick, you need to bottle that skill :)
[04:15] <cartesian1984> zP-Osama, alright. Good luck. You can find me on AIM with the same screenname if it still gives you trouble.
[04:16] <arrick> already knows the parts of the internal pc too, which in my "opinion" is pretty good
[04:16] <arrick> haha
[04:16] <Rug> Where is the config file for Fluxbox?
[04:16] <arrick> thanks nickrud
[04:16] <konfuzed> my girl helps me build computer boxes ;^)
[04:16] <Hedos> Hey guys. I've got this ACPI problem with Ubuntu. My laptop won't boot unless I set acpi=off.. but my network connection doesn't work, most likely because of that. Any idea what should I do?
[04:16] <zP-Osama> cartesian1984: alright ill put ya down. mine is mudrunner89
[04:16] <carthik> Rug in ~/.fluxbox
[04:16] <konfuzed> I can even guide here through an ubuntu install ;^)
[04:16] <konfuzed> uh s/here/her
[04:17] <Rug> carthik: thanks
[04:17] <Dr_Willis> Hedos,  i got a bios update that fixed all my laptop problems. :P
[04:17] <freebird> Does Ubuntu 2.12 support web cam?
[04:17] <JarG0n> any idea what would be doing that?
[04:17] <cartesian1984> zP-Osama, strange, I can't connect.
[04:17] <Hedos> What was your BIOS?
[04:18] <zP-Osama> cartesian1984:yeah i noticed ure not on... :P newtowrk could be down nd i just havent unconnected yet
[04:18] <JarG0n> "Could not grab your keyboard. A malicious client may be eavesdropping" :(
[04:18] <arrick> hey Dr_Willis I figured out what was wrong with my extra hd's, the powersupply went bad
[04:18] <arrick> ouch
[04:18] <Dr_Willis> Hedos,  this was for my Compaq V2311
[04:18] <zP-Osama> cartesian1984:yay i get to spend another halfhour compiling :P
[04:18] <b3nw> for some reason, when I click windows that are underneath another program, they are not being brought to the top, and selected. any ideas why this would happen?
[04:18] <endra> hi
[04:18] <Dr_Willis> arrick,  :P
[04:18] <carthik> IamEthos, I have to run, but get comical0.7, extract it, cd to that dir, then $sudo apt-get install libwxgtk2.6-0 libwxgtk2.6-dev python-wxgtk2.6      After this, type "$make comical" and then copy the comical binary to /usr/local/bin by doing a $sudo cp ./comical /usr/local/bin/comical ... Now you can run comical by typing $comical
[04:19] <cartesian1984> zP-Osama, yeah, it sucks. Good luck with that.
[04:19] <arrick> yah think that ight have explained it?
[04:19] <endra> is ubuntu good for running as server?
[04:19] <Dr_Willis> arrick,  the fact they were not spinning up was a clue eh?
[04:19] <zP-Osama> cartesian1984: lol thx man
[04:19] <Dr_Willis> endra,  works good for me that way
[04:19] <arrick> I could have sworn they were spinning though
[04:19] <endra> I have a 133mhz/256mb of ram machine I want to run apache/mysql/ftpd on (and probly a few chat clients like gaim)
[04:19] <nathanael> Just started installing KDE
[04:19] <Hedos> Dr_Willis, ok, I got an acer laptop, but that seems like a good idea, I'll try upgrading my BIOS, thanks.
[04:19] <endra> Dr_Willis: now that you know the specs, is it still good?
[04:20] <arrick> the problem was that I installed them in one row an every other one was on the same connector, and that side went out
[04:20] <Dr_Willis> endra,  Heck witgh Chat Clients. :P
[04:20] <nickrud> b3nw, you can change that behavior in System->Preferences->Windows
[04:20] <endra> :-P
[04:20] <doms> wer i can download a video editor programm like pinnacle   except kino
[04:20] <dashriKe> http://img212.imageshack.us/my.php?image=coloureddebug4ml.gif <-- woo for coloured debug window [yes I was bored]
[04:20] <arrick> so i got a better powersupply today that supports that much in the first place
[04:20] <Dr_Willis> endra,  and why bother with ftp :P
[04:20] <freebird> I must be redlined for being so linux illerate.. lol
[04:20] <zP-Osama> cartesian1984: think i just foudn the problem.... i compiled it with the  wrong command for the patch install. he left out | patch -p1 nd i was copy pating :/
[04:20] <nathanael> Is there an easy way to install a nice splash on my GRUB screen at boot?
[04:21] <endra> Dr_Willis I like your way of thinking!
[04:21] <JarG0n> Dr_Willis: Got something against ftp ? :(
[04:21] <cartesian1984> zP-Osama, ah.....
[04:21] <endra> Dr_Willis: I might just make it a netless server as well!
[04:21] <doms> wer i can download a video editor programm like pinnacle   except kino
[04:21] <arrick> endra I run ftp, apache2 webserver, ssh server, gateway all off one ubuntu server
[04:21] <Dr_Willis> JarG0n,  lets see..its insecure. and in genral can be replaced totally by ssh.....
[04:21] <cartesian1984> zP-Osama, yeah....that would do it..
[04:21] <b3nw> nickrud- thx
[04:21] <Krollian> Stupid question:  What is an easy way to run programs that aren't listed under applications?
[04:22] <zP-Osama> cartesian1984: damn..... o well more work for me lol
[04:22] <Dr_Willis> Krollian,  type their name in a shell. :P
[04:22] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984:  sorry, that took a while: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11920
[04:22] <nickrud> b3nw, ah, good :) I just discovered that's not in dapper's preferences
[04:22] <JarG0n> Dr_Willis: insecure, yes.... But I didn't know SSh was a file transfer protocol....
[04:22] <arrick> endra, however your 133 is a bit smaller, mine is 233
[04:22] <b3nw> nickrud - file a bug? i'll confirm it, or want me to.
[04:22] <bimberi> Krollian: if you know the command - <alt>F2 and type the command
[04:22] <theripper>  anyone using ati x800 card???
[04:23] <arrick> freebird, we all started that way though, however the newbies today have really good support in here
[04:23] <zP-Osama> cartesian1984: hey in step 14 were it talks about performance tips.... were exactly do i do that at?
[04:23] <nathanael> Is there an easy way to install a nice splash on my GRUB screen at boot?
[04:23] <doms> anybody knows video maker for ubuntu breezy badger and wer i can download it
[04:23] <nickrud> b3nw, I'm not sure it's a bug, but a design decision. It's still available in gconf-editor
[04:23] <comrade> i have a usb ntfs drive, and the first time I plugged it in gnome automounted it to media, when I plug it in now though it doesn't how do I found where the location of it is at in /dev/ so I can mount it
[04:23] <Dr_Willis> JarG0n,  there ya go.. :P now ya know.
[04:23] <Krollian> Why can't there be a list?  I'm expected to remember the exact names/spelling?
[04:23] <josh__> hi, with the basic install of wine, how do i start it?
[04:23] <cartesian1984> zP-Osama, step 14 of what?
[04:23] <b3nw> why would they remove it? if its not a bug, they can reject it tho
[04:23] <Krollian> I have an x800
[04:23] <Dr_Willis> JarG0n,  so KICK the Ftp Habbit like a... err... bad habbit.
[04:23] <Dr_Willis> :P
[04:23] <arrick> Krollian, youc an create a list
[04:23] <arrick> hehe
[04:23] <b3nw> gconf is hidden by default, I think it would make sense its a bug
[04:23] <JarG0n> :P... I'll keep that in mind in case I need to setup something like that in the future
[04:23] <doms> anybody knows video maker for ubuntu breezy badger and wer i can download it
[04:23] <Rug> Howd do I remove rhythmbox?
[04:23] <JarG0n> yep
[04:23] <dyrne> comrade: try ls -t /dev | head should be like sda1 or sdb1 or soforth
[04:24] <theripper> Krollian:  are the linux drivers any good
[04:24] <mikebot> does anyone here have an ipod
[04:24] <arrick> josh__, you use command lind tostart it
[04:24] <bimberi> Krollian: other ways are to create a launcher on the panel  (right-click on the panel) or edit the menus yourself (right click on "Applications")
[04:24] <nickrud> b3nw, true. I'd look around on the gnome dev or metacity dev lists first, see what the thinking was (if I actually cared about this enough, I don't use that behavior :)
[04:24] <zP-Osama> cartesian1984: hold on a sec
[04:24] <arrick> yeah, dont use it though mike-ee
[04:24] <arrick> mikebot,
[04:24] <arrick> ^^
[04:24] <josh__> -su: lind: command not found
[04:24] <Krollian> theripper, so far so good.  Haven't been able to launch a game yet lol
[04:24] <b3nw> nickrud - know where in gconf it is by chance?
[04:24] <mikebot> arrick, what do you use to add songs to it?
[04:24] <josh__> what direc is it in?
[04:24] <doms> anybody knows video maker for ubuntu breezy badger and wer i can download it

[04:26] <endra> mmk thx guys
[04:26] <dyrne> endra: most id use for 133mhz would be black or openbox something like that.  maybe look into xubuntu if you want more gui

[04:40] <bimberi> djs_2_6: hmmk,  'gksudo nautilus'
[04:40] <bimberi> !gksudo
[04:40] <ubotu> Use gksudo to run gtk applications with root privileges. Using sudo to start gtk apps can scramble your user account permissions.
[04:40] <arrick> MYP, sorry, didnt get your message in time
[04:41] <dyrne> djs_2_6: gksudo would be better to use
[04:41] <djs_2_6> Ok.  I had never heard of that before...

[04:43] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984:  yeah, I am
[04:43] <MTecknology> so, will i get no help in here
[04:43] <crimsun> TruckerMan: actually, don't put it in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base, since that will be clobbered. Use /etc/modprobe.d/snd-nm256
[04:43] <TruckerMan> wait, so do the command in the echo or text edit
[04:43] <River> nickrud: than you
[04:44] <crimsun> TruckerMan: remove the options.. line from /etc/modules
[04:44] <TruckerMan> im confused
[04:44] <nickrud> River, yw
[04:44] <Tm_T> SirJn: err, please don't do that ever again
[04:44] <crimsun> TruckerMan: then use: echo "options snd-nm256 reset_workaround=1 reset_workaround_2=1" |sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/snd-nm256
[04:44] <Tm_T> SirJn: in any channel without permission
[04:45] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, sorry it took so long,
[04:45] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, Could you link me to the output again?
[04:45] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11920
[04:47] <mikebot> if i installed sometihgn which required i install a bunch of tihngs, is there a way to remove not just the main thing, but everythign it also installed?
[04:47] <TruckerMan> ok, so just tell me what to do crimsun, when you said "actually" i became confused about what not to do first
[04:47] <TruckerMan> what should i do first crimsun?
[04:47] <TruckerMan> edit /etc/modules?
[04:48] <kai> Could someone please help me in configuring Evolution for Yahoo mail?
[04:48] <nickrud> mikebot, look into debfoster, that will help you prune unneeded packages
[04:48] <mikebot> NickGarvey, how do i look in that?
[04:48] <mikebot> nickrud, **
[04:48] <nickrud> mikebot, that's an idiom, it means look it up :) apt-cache show debfoster
[04:49] <tanubis> I'm trying to get dvd's to play with Xine, but some DVD's give me an error message of "Error reading NAV packet"
[04:49] <tanubis> some DVD's play just fine though...
[04:49] <tanubis> anyone know what might be wrong?
[04:49] <kai> Could someone please help me in configuring Evolution for Yahoo mail?
[04:49] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984:  don't know if this helps, but is ran dmesg, and for eth0 it says "no IPv6 routers present".  but it has no problem identifying the network adapter
[04:50] <nickrud> tanubis, you could try a different player, I've had some dvd's that play in one but not another
[04:50] <tanubis> if I hit the more option, I get audio decoder errors, unknown buffer type
[04:50] <mikebot> nickrud, ah, thanks
[04:50] <tanubis> can you give me a list of some that I might try?
[04:51] <nickrud> mikebot, if you install a package with aptitude, when you uninstall it with aptitude it removes unused dependencies automatically. For future use, possibly
[04:51] <protocol1> tanubis, have you tried easyubuntu?
[04:51] <tanubis> no
[04:52] <nickrud> tanubis, vlc , mplayer , and xine are about it for unique players
[04:52] <protocol1> you should give it a try
[04:52] <protocol1> works great
[04:52] <mikebot> nickrud, if aptitude is a program for ubuntu, i don't know what it is, otherwise, it added a lot of packages, and i quickly clicked ok, so for the future i will do that, but can't for this one
[04:52] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, look at this, might help http://www.zejack.com/article/linux/slackware/install_slackware_8.1.html
[04:52] <slavik> what can I play an mkv file with that will display the subtitles?
[04:52] <nickrud> tanubis, protocol1 has a point, some dvd's aren't encrypted, you might need some support libraries
[04:53] <_jason> slavik: have you tried mplayer (I don't use subtitles so I don't know for sure it will work)
[04:53] <mikebot> nickrud, how do i run debfoster?
[04:53] <RichardC> i've got a few questions
[04:53] <mrios> Hello, is this the right channel to be on if you have an ubuntu hardware question?
[04:54] <nickrud> mikebot, sudo debfoster, and follow the prompts
[04:54] <newmanserver> how do i use a different browser than firefox?
[04:54] <RichardC> lemme start with this grub problem im having
[04:54] <MTecknology> I'm not getting help in here, am I
[04:54] <nickrud> mrios, yes
[04:54] <FarFetched21> cartesian1984:  it just might
[04:54] <newmanserver> How do i use a different internet browser than firefox?
[04:55] <crimsun> TruckerMan: #1. Remove that options.. line from /etc/modules.
[04:55] <mikebot> does anyone know if there is a gnome version of kile?
[04:55] <dyrne> slavik: not familiar with mkv file but there are often seperate subtitile files you need to point to for example:mplayer filename.avi -sub filename.srt
[04:55] <mrios> Question: I have compiled and successfully located the driver for my USB wireless card. According to the forums, this is the correct driver for my card. The problem is that when I load the driver, the device is still not recognized by the computer.
[04:55] <crimsun> TruckerMan: #2. echo "options snd-nm256 reset_workaround=1 reset_workaround_2=1" |sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/snd-nm256
[04:55] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, it says to disable APIC mode in the BIOS, that would be a good place to start.
[04:55] <nickrud> newmanserver, install one: epiphany, galeon, konqueror, or you can find an opera deb for ubuntu I think
[04:55] <mrios> My question is, how can I get my device to be noticed by the computer?
[04:56] <vskye> newmanserver: just install a different browser.
[04:56] <mrios> What I have tried so far: my configuration files in etc have been modified like so
[04:56] <celerex> anyone here happen to use BLOOMBERG?
[04:56] <TruckerMan> ok crimsun | this |sudo tee ... is that a new command?
[04:56] <mikebot> !kile
[04:56] <ubotu> mikebot: I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[04:56] <TruckerMan> or all one shot?
[04:56] <newmanserver> yea how do i do that?
[04:57] <nickrud> mikebot, to get info on a package, !info <package>
[04:57] <newmanserver> where do i go
[04:57] <mrios> in the /etc/modutils/ directory I have placed a file named (drivername) containing the single line "alias rausb0 rt2570"
[04:57] <renewbie> what is the root password for live ubuntu CD?
[04:57] <dabaR> how do I blacklist modules?
[04:57] <mikebot> nickrud, ok
[04:57] <mrios> Supposedly this will make my computer associate the usb device with the name rt2570
[04:57] <_jason> renewbie: use sudo instead
[04:57] <nickrud> newmanserver, in synaptic, ctl-f will search through package names
[04:57] <unity> can someone help me with tar? i want to tar and gzip a directory, so i used tar cvvzf gaim.logs.04-09-06.tar.gz ~/.gaim/logs/ but then when i looked in the tar, there was a home and in it, there was unity, and in there, there was .gaim. but i just want there to be the things inside logs in the root of the tar.gz how can i do this?
[04:57] <_jason> ubotu: tell renewbie about sudo
[04:57] <nickrud> dabaR, add it to /etc/hotplug/blacklist
[04:58] <nickrud> dabaR, for breezy
[04:58] <mrios> But no such luck: the rausb0 device does not exist
[04:58] <vskye> newmanserver: for instance, if you want Opera.. go to www.opera.com, select download, linux, ubuntu and the proper version.
[04:58] <newmanserver> ok ty

[05:00] <mrios> Forgive me
[05:00] <newmanserver> ok i am sry i am sooo stupid, but how do i install opera that i just dled?
[05:00] <_jason> !deb
[05:00] <ubotu> To install a .deb file: sudo dpkg -i filename.deb  (but note that the program you want might be installable using !apt from the !repos)
[05:01] <TruckerMan> well crimsun, i went ahead and did it all in one shot and it asked for password and just hung there
[05:01] <mrios> I did not know there is a paste operation that is customary in this channel to use a paste command. apologies
[05:01] <unity> newmanserver: sudo apt-get install opera-browser ?
[05:01] <vskye> newmanserver: did you download the ubuntu version?
[05:01] <newmanserver> yes
[05:01] <newmanserver> the ubuntu version
[05:01] <newmanserver> brezzy badger
[05:02] <farous> newmanserver: you can also just add the opera repos
[05:02] <newmanserver> sry but i dont know how...
[05:02] <farous> so what probb you have with opera
[05:02] <farous> !opera
[05:02] <ubotu> rumour has it, opera is not in the Ubuntu repositories, but you can always download the latest Opera .deb package from http://www.opera.com/download/ and then see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OperaBrowser
[05:02] <TruckerMan> !tee
[05:02] <ubotu> TruckerMan: I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:02] <nickrud> newmanserver, you're almost there, where'd you download opera to?
[05:02] <TruckerMan> !info tee
[05:02] <TruckerMan> what the heck is tee?
[05:02] <_jason> tee (1)              - read from standard input and write to standard output and files
[05:02] <vskye> newmanserver: ok, then cd to the directory you d/l'ed it in, and sudo dpkg -i "package name".
[05:02] <nickrud> TruckerMan, man tee
[05:02] <_jason> tee (1posix)         - duplicate standard input
[05:02] <newmanserver> i need opera, because in firefox when i dl and save it into a folder, it sits at 100% and doesnt ever completely finish
[05:03] <crimsun> TruckerMan: what command did you copy and paste?
[05:03] <farous> newmanserver: you can follow ubotu link
[05:03] <TruckerMan>  sudo echo "options snd-nm256 reset_workaround=1 reset_workaround_2=1" |sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/snd-nm256
[05:03] <jsestri2> can anyone help me get my mouse working again? it was working, and after a restart, it has stopped resonding.

[05:06] <dyrne> newmanserver: sudo cp ~/Desktop/filname /whateverdire or sudo mv
[05:06] <jsestri2> crimsun: any idea where i might start looking for problems with the mouse not starting up properly?
[05:06] <farous> newmanserver: this should not be the case how did you download the file and did even if you used sudo you should still be able to copy it

[05:08] <FarrisG> How do I configure my system so that resolv.conf doesn't get updated automatically? I want to put some specific search and server info in it and make it static
[05:08] <FarFetched22> cartesian1984:  nope, didn't work
[05:08] <renewbie> is there a way I can read ntfs on hard disk without mounting it manually?
[05:08] <newmanserver> ok farous i did that and it selected the file, but now i want to move it to /hlds
[05:08] <leo__> Hello, I have a routing problem here on my server. Would like to know if i can get help here?
[05:08] <mrios> Question: suppose I have a new device and I want to give it a device name. How do I give it a name that the system will recognize? And how do I tell it which driver  to use to talk to the device?
[05:08] <renewbie> in ubuntu..
[05:09] <newmanserver> how do i do that
[05:09] <cartesian1984> FarFetched21, did you do this bit 'in /etc/rc.d/rc.modules uncomment:
[05:09] <cartesian1984> /sbin/modprobe 8139too
[05:09] <cartesian1984> ' ?
[05:09] <farous> newmanserver: ok you do not have permission to /hlds
[05:09] <newmanserver> i believe i dont
[05:09] <farous> newmanserver: you can move it anywhere under your home dir
[05:09] <newmanserver> but i can sudo it
[05:09] <boggiex64> chmod 777
[05:09] <farous> newmanserver: that is not good idea make a dir under your home folder and move or copy it there
[05:09] <renewbie> in ubuntu, is there a way I can read ntfs on hard disk without mounting it manually?
[05:09] <nickrud> cartesian1984, you've been in fedora land too long :)
[05:10] <leo__> Hello, I have a routing problem here on my server. Would like to know if i can get help here?
[05:10] <pinkmermaid> Does anyone know a good script for xchat for showing what you're listening to xmms?
[05:10] <boggiex64> or that
[05:10] <newmanserver> ok thanks for your help anyways
[05:10] <newmanserver> i have to run
[05:10] <FarFetched22> cartesian1984:  I was looking into that, but there is no such directory on this system. there is rc0.d through rc6.d and none of those have an rc.module
[05:10] <imperfect-> Anyone here familiar with distcc?
[05:10] <FarFetched22> cartesian1984:  its messed
[05:10] <nickrud> FarFetched22, if you want that module to load on boot, add it to /etc/modules
[05:11] <cartesian1984> nickrud, never been to Fedora Land, is it in a red state or a blue state?
[05:11] <FarFetched22> nickrud: not sure how to do that
[05:11] <truz24> what file contains the services which start at bootup?
[05:11] <nickrud> cartesian1984, it's a state of mind :)
[05:12] <nickrud> FarFetched22, sudo nano /etc/modules
[05:12] <dyrne> truz24: you mean the scripts in /etc/init.d/ ?
[05:12] <FarFetched22> nickrud: yeah, I am just using pico, does that make a dif?
[05:12] <DBO> est
[05:12] <DBO> oops...  sorry
[05:13] <nickrud> cartesian1984, could be wrong about the fedora land, I've been living in debian for a very long time
[05:13] <truz24> dyrne, maybe :-)
[05:13] <FarFetched22> nickrud: now I just add "rc.d"
[05:13] <truz24> When you use the gui to turn services off, does it remove them from /etc/init.d/ ?
[05:13] <nickrud> FarFetched22, no, gksudo gedit works as well, and add the module name to an empty line
[05:13] <leo__> I have 4 machines sharing an internet connection here. 3 of them are windows and mine is Linux(ubuntu breezy). The server is running ubuntu hoary. All the machines runnning windows can browse but my linux machine cant connecto to a few sites and even apt-get isnt updating sources lists anymore... Does anyone knows what can be happening ???
[05:14] <cartesian1984> nickrud, ubuntu since september for me. Never used anything else.
[05:14] <nickrud> truz24, no, it simply removes links in rc2-5
[05:14] <FarrisG> how do I stop resolv.conf from being updated?
[05:14] <dyrne> truz24: probably removes them from rc also... to be honest i havent used gnome in ubuntu for a while were you wanting to add a service back?
[05:14] <nickrud> cartesian1984, then why were you looking for an rc.modules?
[05:14] <nickrud> cartesian1984, just curious, that's all
[05:15] <leo__> I have 4 machines sharing an internet connection here. 3 of them are windows and mine is Linux(ubuntu breezy). The server is running ubuntu hoary. All the machines runnning windows can browse but my linux machine cant connecto to a few sites and even apt-get isnt updating sources lists anymore... Does anyone knows what can be happening ???
[05:15] <cartesian1984> nickrud, oh, I got it from a slackware guide, I assumed that since it was a module that the dir was universal.
[05:15] <truz24> No, looking to disable a service and possibly add a new one
[05:15] <jsestri2> i had my mouse working for a long time, and on the last restart it stopped working, can anyone point me in the direction of finding a cause?
[05:15] <FarFetched22> nickrud: now I just add "rc.d" or "rc"?
[05:15] <nickrud> FarFetched22, what was the module you wanted to be loaded on boot again?
[05:16] <farous> jsestri2: did you change your xorg.conf file
[05:16] <leo__> I have 4 machines sharing an internet connection here. 3 of them are windows and mine is Linux(ubuntu breezy). The server is running ubuntu hoary. All the machines runnning windows can browse but my linux machine cant connecto to a few sites and even apt-get isnt updating sources lists anymore... Does anyone knows what can be happening ???
[05:16] <FarFetched22> nickrud: /etc/rc.d/rc.modules
[05:16] <jsestri2> farous: no, not before that restart, later i tried a reconfigure with no effect
[05:16] <dyrne> truz24: i usually just look for the name in /etc/init.d and then update-rc.d -f service remove. but you might also just sudo chmod -x /etc/init.d/service that makes it non executable and all you have to do is +x to change back
[05:16] <nickrud> FarFetched22, no, it was some ethernet device you wanted to work
[05:17] <Mercutio150> can someone help me with something?
[05:17] <FarFetched22> nickrud: yeah.... I am not sure, I just know that that is the file I am supposed to edit, but it is not present...
[05:17] <nickrud> FarFetched22, forget all about /etc/rc.d/rc.modules, it does not exist in ubuntu
[05:17] <Ryannnn> everyone help
[05:17] <Ryannnn> anyONE HELP PLZ
[05:17] <Ryannnn> PLZ
[05:17] <fabri> i need help, i can

[05:18] <Mercutio150> everytime I run a streaming media the player loads then quits after a few seconds
[05:18] <leo__> I have 4 machines sharing an internet connection here. 3 of them are windows and mine is Linux(ubuntu breezy). The server is running ubuntu hoary. All the machines runnning windows can browse but my linux machine cant connecto to a few sites and even apt-get isnt updating sources lists anymore... Does anyone knows what can be happening ???
[05:18] <dyrne> Ryannnn: what was question?
[05:18] <nickrud> FarFetched22, 8139too <-- put that on a blank line in /etc/modules
[05:18] <cartesian1984> nickrud, FarFetched22 it was 8139too. Is adding it to /etc/modules the right approach?
[05:18] <Ryannnn> i partioned my windows hd
[05:18] <Ryannnn> and now i cant boot into xp
[05:18] <Ryannnn> but its there
[05:18] <Dissident> keystroke to change desktops?

[05:18] <farous> jsestri2: try cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log|grep mouse might tell you something
[05:18] <nickrud> cartesian1984, yes :)
[05:19] <dyrne> Ryannnn: ubuntu boots ok? does windows show up as a choice at bootup?
[05:19] <jsestri2> farous: is that file only in existance when ubuntu is loaded?
[05:19] <Ryannnn> yes it does dyne
[05:19] <cartesian1984> 6 months with Linux and every day I learn something new :)
[05:19] <Ryannnn> and yes ubunto does
[05:19] <fabri> i can't use my keyboard in alternative en-intl in the GAIM or Firefox
[05:19] <jsestri2> farous: im in windows right now and i can't see that file on my linux partion
[05:19] <mikebot> how can i run a file in terminal?
[05:19] <mikebot> run blah?
[05:19] <farous> jsestri2: it is the log file for the last loading of xorg
[05:19] <iRRVi> where do I get the ubuntu source so I can compule ndiswrapper?
[05:19] <FarFetched22> nickrud: alright. so whats it going to do again?

[05:19] <truz24> thx dyrne
[05:19] <Ryannnn> sum error
[05:20] <Ryannnn> like the boot image loads
[05:20] <_jason> mikebot: /path/to/file, if you are in the same directory: ./file
[05:20] <Ryannnn> etc
[05:20] <Ryannnn> then it goes into a error
[05:20] <nickrud> FarFetched22, every time you boot up, the modules in /etc/modules are modprobed
[05:20] <renewbie> ubotu: does ubuntu live CD mount hard disk on boot? It has ntfs and I was trying to read it by mounting hdc..
[05:20] <ubotu> I'm sorry, i don't know what you're talking about, renewbie
[05:20] <truz24> dyrne, what if you have a daemon that doens't have an init script, how do you add it to init.d? /
[05:20] <mikebot> _jason, doesn't seem to be working
[05:20] <jsestri2> farous: alright i'll try and get that for you, hold on a sec
[05:20] <farous> jsestri2: Xorg.0.log is last log there are others you might look at
[05:20] <nismo> hey guys whats a program i can use to make an iso bootable cd
[05:20] <mikebot> _jason, bash: Makefile-demo: command not found
[05:20] <_jason> mikebot: what are you trying to do?
[05:21] <nickrud> FarFetched22, functionally the same result as the slackware howto you were using
[05:21] <FarFetched22> nickrud: ok

[05:24] <cartesian1984> linux_user400354, should I expound this furthur?
[05:24] <dyrne> Ryannnn: after gedit is open look for something like 'title    Windows XP'
[05:24] <Ryannnn> how do i go to gedit
[05:24] <asdf25> apart from disk space, is there any advantage to using kubuntu and running apt-get install kubuntu-desktop?
[05:24] <TruckerMan> crimsun, that didnt work
[05:25] <DBO> asdf25, its just a preference thing
[05:25] <casidgcoi> where i locate theme winXP for gnome?
[05:25] <linux_user400354> cartesian1984, this is the what i have in fstab for my usb disk     /dev/sda1       /media/sda1     vfat    umask=000        0       0
[05:25] <farous> asdf25: you can mix programs from gnome and kde. you do not need to install everything
[05:25] <dyrne> Ryannnn: open a terminal in ubuntu then type sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst im sorry not sure where exact terminal entry is in gnome
[05:25] <linux_user400354> cartesian1984, what should it be?
[05:25] <asdf25> yeah... i phrased my question wrong so it didn't make any sense... but ok, thanks
[05:25] <TruckerMan> crimsun, i cut and paste exactly (minus initial sudo) and rebooted and it didnt load, i then tried manually loading what we had working yesterday and that doesnt even work.
[05:26] <nickrud> dyrne, Ryannnn Applications->Accessories->Terminal
[05:26] <pinkmermaid> casidgcoi, I've got a windows classic theme going on, but I haven't seen anything for gnome that makes it look WinXPish with the blue and stuff.
[05:26] <cartesian1984> linux_user400354, ok, under options, add user.
[05:26] <cartesian1984> linux_user400354, or maybe its users. Either should work.
[05:26] <Ryannnn> ok
[05:26] <Ryannnn> i got that open
[05:26] <cartesian1984> linux_user400354, no....go with user....
[05:26] <Ryannnn> Now what bro
[05:27] <Ryannnn> I see a list of shit
[05:27] <dyrne> Ryannnn: you should see an entry for windows xp
[05:27] <jsestri2> farous: would you like to see a pastebin?

[05:28] <farous> Ryannnn: use the pastebin
[05:28] <Ryannnn> what u mean pastebin?
[05:28] <dyrne> Ryannnn: its a webpage where you can post content
[05:28] <linux_user400354> cartesian, cool
[05:28] <dyrne> Ryannnn: past
[05:28] <Ryannnn> I dunt know that webpage.
[05:28] <chris> this is pissing me off
[05:28] <jsestri2> !pastebin
[05:28] <ubotu> I guess pastebin is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/, a site for pasting long texts so you don't disrupt the channel - or install webboard in Gnome: http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=1269
[05:28] <Ryannnn> so what do i do guys?
[05:28] <chris> i can figure out where or how to run python
[05:29] <casidgcoi> Toma- thanks
[05:29] <Ryannnn> I really need my xp parition working
[05:29] <chris> and yes i do have it installed
[05:29] <Ryannnn> it has all my music on it
[05:29] <dyrne> Ryannnn: do you have a floppy drive?
[05:29] <_jason> chris: type 'python' in a terminal
[05:29] <Ryannnn> no i dont dyrne
[05:29] <farous> chris type idle in a terminal that is the easiest
[05:29] <jsestri2> farous: this is my Xorg.0.log http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11924
[05:29] <dyrne> Ryannnn: open your file manager and see if there is a directory /media/hda1
[05:30] <Ryannnn> there is a hda1
[05:30] <chris> thanks jason
[05:30] <Ryannnn> on the desktop
[05:30] <Ryannnn> I just freshly installed this os today btw.
[05:30] <tanubis> trying to install mplayer, and it comes back saying "broken package"  I've uncommented all the lines in /etc/apt/sources.list ...  do I need another deb line?
[05:30] <dyrne> Ryannnn: that is your win partition
[05:30] <Ryannnn> but it says i cant
[05:30] <Ryannnn> access it
[05:30] <Ryannnn> :(
[05:30] <TruckerMan> mount it
[05:30] <_jason> tanubis: you need to add `` multiverse'' to all the lines that contain ``universe'' and not ``multiverse''
[05:30] <Ryannnn> I dont have permission
[05:30] <TruckerMan> sudo
[05:30] <tanubis> thankyou
[05:30] <cartesian1984> linux_user400354, this is what the line in the ubuntu starter guide looks like: /dev/sda1       /media/windows  vfat    iocharset=utf8,umask=000   0       0
[05:31] <nismo> ok on the ubuntu burningisohowto it states that all i have 2 do is right click on the iso image and selet write to disk, the problem is that i dont get that option
[05:31] <farous> jsestri2: it is configured as ps2 mouse is that what you have
[05:31] <dyrne> Ryannnn: yes it doesnt mount it right. close gedit and type in a terminal sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[05:31] <jsestri2> farous: yes, i dont think the Xorg config is bad, it worked before hand
[05:31] <cartesian1984> linux_user400354, here, its a nice reference, might want to bookmark it.
[05:31] <jsestri2> farous: and im positive i have not changed it
[05:32] <jadaz87> !mac
[05:32] <ubotu> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, jadaz87
[05:32] <Ryannnn> ok , now what dyrne
[05:32] <Syco54645> would anyone suggest upgrading to dapper yet?  i realize that it is still in production and not considered stable, but there are some apps that i would really like to have updates to that have not been back ported.
[05:32] <farous> jsestri2: then i do not think i can help perhaps someone else might be able too. hope you find the problem :)
[05:32] <Ryannnn> I see the fstab document and sum stuff
[05:32] <TruckerMan> or sudo mount /dev/hda1 /media/windows
[05:32] <TruckerMan> ?
[05:32] <jsestri2> farous: just want to double check ps2 is the normal mouse connection right? as opposed to serial or usb...?
[05:32] <dyrne> Ryannnn: youll see an entry for /dev/hda1 under the <options> column change defaults to umask=000,defaults
[05:32] <farous> ya
[05:32] <gustavo_> someone can tell me the channel of ubuntu brazil ?
[05:33] <mrios> Anyone want to take a whack at a difficult problem?
[05:33] <mrios> I'm stumped
[05:33] <cartesian1984> linux_user400354, oh, it appears as though that I've forgotten to give you the URL http://www.ubuntuguide.org/
[05:33] <farous> it is not a usb mouse right
[05:33] <asdf25> anyone know the name of the program for changing KDE themes?
[05:33] <_jason> gustavo_: #ubuntu-br
[05:33] <mrios> It has to do with device drivers
[05:33] <Stone_Thrunk> good evening everyone - I have a toughie.  I have an old Intel 810e mobo from a Dell, which has onboard video, and an additional PCI card, an ATI Rage 128 Pro All In Wonder.  Even with the onboard disabled in the bios, I can't get Ubuntu to recognize the ATI card...it just hangs and never does a thing.  Can someone tell me how to get that non-onboard-video card enabled?
[05:33] <TruckerMan> crimsun, i cut and paste exactly (minus initial sudo) and rebooted and it didnt load, i then tried manually loading what we had working yesterday and that doesnt even work.
[05:33] <regeya> asdf25: kcontrol ;-)
[05:33] <gustavo_> tanks !
[05:33] <asdf25> thanks
[05:33] <mrios> Does anyone have experience with ralink chipsets for wireless cards?
[05:33] <jsestri2> can anyone help me get my mouse working agian? it was working before a restart and has stopped responding. It is probaly not an Xorg problem, more likely a module problem can anyone point me in any direction?
[05:33] <Ryannnn> this is what i see
[05:33] <Ryannnn> defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
[05:33] <Ryannnn> /dev/hda1       /media/hda1     ntfs    defaults        0       0
[05:33] <nismo> seriously can someone help me create an iso using ubuntu
[05:33] <Ryannnn> please explain better bro.
[05:34] <Stone_Thrunk> I've searched all day with conflicting results, involving editing xorg.conf, GATOS, and other solutions
[05:34] <|DaMaGe|> hmmm 5.10 is the latest version? didn't a brand new version just come out?
[05:34] <dyrne> Ryannnn: leave everything the same but change defaults to umask=000,defaults no comma
[05:34] <dyrne> Ryannnn: i mean no space after comma
[05:34] <Stone_Thrunk> I can provide the output of lspci -v if necessary
[05:34] <Ryannnn> so what should it look like dyrne in the stuff i pasted u
[05:35] <mrios> My system is telling me I have an error of type -12 -- I get this in the dmesg when I insert my wireless card.
[05:35] <mrios> can anyone explain what this means or where I can look it up?
[05:35] <cartesian1984> FarFetched22, did it work?
[05:35] <nismo> zomg!
[05:35] <nismo> seriously can someone help me create an iso using ubuntu
[05:35] <Ryannnn> Like this is all I see
[05:35] <Ryannnn> /dev/hda1       /media/hda1     ntfs    defaults        0       0
[05:35] <jsestri2> i can't believe that ubuntu just became this worthless to me
[05:35] <Ryannnn> i dont see where u want me to type it
[05:36] <PTK> hey hald locks my system up on startup with a 2.6.15-19 or 2.6.15-20 kernel (I don't know about ealier versions of 2.6.15) but it works okay with 2.6.12-10 any suggestions?
[05:36] <dyrne> Ryannnn: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11925 copy and paste that over your existing line
[05:36] <mrios> Question: if I want to get help for my problems with ubuntu, where do I go?
[05:36] <|DaMaGe|> 5.10 is the latest version? didn't a brand new version just come out?
[05:36] <nismo> is there a reason y no1 wants to help me?
[05:36] <CNTRLX> damnit
[05:36] <Pupeno> mrios: here, the mailing list, the forum.
[05:36] <regeya> !ask
[05:36] <ubotu> Just ask. Questions in the channel should be specific, informative, complete, concise and on-topic. Information like hardware make, model, outputs of commands that you used pasted onto http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl is important.
[05:37] <Hedos> Guys, I can't get networking to work on Ubuntu. Must be because of this ACPI problem I can't fix. (Can only boot with acpi=off). Any idea what should I do?
[05:37] <nismo> seriously can someone help me create an iso using ubuntu
[05:37] <narg> how might I go about writing a script that takes something like "Blah says 'cheese.'" with a bunch of empty lines everwhere, and turn it into just cheese? Would sed be the best choice?
[05:37] <regeya> ubotu needs an addition to that:  if no one is answering, probably no one knows.
[05:37] <ubotu> regeya: that's too long
[05:37] <jsestri2> What is the module that deals with the mouse?
[05:37] <mrios> Pupeno: Is the advice here considered quality/competent/useful?
[05:37] <regeya> !lart ubotu
[05:37] <Falstius> nismo: one of the easiest ways is to use the command line.  you can just type "dd if=/dev/cdrom of=my.iso bs=4M" and it will make an ISO of the CD.
[05:37] <jakl> how can i install emacs on ubuntu? i tried searching for it in 'add applications' but it won't find anything...
[05:38] <nickrud> nismo, probably no one's answering because they haven't mastered a bootable iso recently :)
[05:38] <nismo> i c
[05:38] <braddr_> anyone here have any experience with installing ubuntu on one of the sun niagara boxes?
[05:38] <KeithWeisshar> i have a new Intel Pentium D system with EM64T
[05:38] <pschmitt> Jakl: try the following from the comand-line:  sudo apt-get install emacs21
[05:38] <nismo> sigh
[05:38] <Pupeno> mrios: depends on who give it. This is an anarchy.
[05:38] <KeithWeisshar> which binaries should i download, i386 or amd64
[05:38] <dyrne> KeithWeisshar: alot less headache with i386
[05:38] <gareth> i386 ftw
[05:39] <KeithWeisshar> what's wrong with amd64 binaries
[05:39] <Pupeno> mrios: there are many eyes at the same time, so there's a good checking and re-checking of the quality of the answers.
[05:39] <dli> how to make totem play .rm ?
[05:39] <Ryannnn> ok dyrne
[05:39] <nismo> theres no way were i can just drag the iso into the dvd rom and burn it?
[05:39] <arrick> CNTRLX, what happened?
[05:39] <Ryannnn> imma copy and pasteu everything i had
[05:39] <Pupeno> mrios: in the practice tends to work quite well.
[05:39] <nismo> im trying to make ita bootable cd
[05:39] <Ryannnn> i dont wanna screw anything up this is what it looks like now
[05:39] <nickrud> mrios, wireless is not easy, but knowledgeable people drop in regularly
[05:39] <mrios> Pupeno: the problem is that nobody wants to answer my questions

[05:40] <SaZWeRX> i just downloaded the new firefox, how can i replace the default with the new one?
[05:40] <Pupeno> mrios: what is your question ?
[05:40] <dyrne> Ryannnn: ok save and exit
[05:40] <arrick> CNTRLX, rejoin

[05:40] <nickrud> intelikey, flat
[05:40] <jakl> pschmi: thanks
[05:40] <Pupeno> nismo: making an ISO is different than burning it to a media.
[05:40] <mrios> Pupeno: yes, the documentation has not been very helpful... sometimes destructive. I have tried forums on three occasions and now I am trying the mailing list.
[05:40] <intelikey> nickrud :)
[05:40] <mrios> Pupeno: The question requires some exposition first.
[05:40] <Ryannnn> ok
[05:40] <Ryannnn> I did
[05:40] <Ryannnn> That
[05:40] <jsestri2> nobdy knows what module the mouse input is handled by?
[05:40] <pschmitt> (fyi:  I'm unsuccessfully trying to install  Mayavi in Breezy    http://packages.ubuntu.com/breezy/science/mayavi).... does anyone have ideas???
[05:40] <GuardianAtomos> Hiya. I'm trying to build something which needs the kernel source...and I used Synaptic to search for it...but I can't find a kernel-source package that matches my kernel version: 2.6.12-10-386
[05:40] <cartesian1984> jsestri2, I think its xorg.
[05:40] <nickrud> jsestri2, psmouse for ps2 types
[05:40] <GuardianAtomos> What should I do?
[05:41] <dyrne> in terminal type sudo mount -a
[05:41] <mrios> Pupeno: I am trying to use a USB wireless card (D-link dwl-g122 v.b1
[05:41] <cartesian1984> jsestri2, so the issue could probably be resolved from within the xorg.conf
[05:41] <mrios> Pupeno: I have compiled the appropriate driver (called rt2570.ko)
[05:41] <dyrne> Ryannnn: er in terminal type sudo umount /media/hda1  then enter then type sudo mount -a
[05:42] <mrios> Pupeno: I have placed it in what are considered the appropriate directories in /lib/module
[05:42] <nismo> sigh
[05:42] <casidgcoi> i love ubuntu

[05:42] <jadaz87> me too
[05:42] <pschulz01> Is there a webdav module for apache2?
[05:42] <jadaz87> yes it is
[05:42] <nismo> i have a love hate relationship with ubuntu
[05:42] <casidgcoi> who make ubuntu?
[05:42] <nickrud> GuardianAtomos, you probably only need the headers, sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[05:42] <TruckerMan> like hell, ubuntu's still buggy
[05:42] <Ryannnn> this is what it says
[05:42] <Pupeno> mrios: sorry, but I have to go to sleep, need to work a lot tomorrow. A recomendation: since this is not a support channel try to break your questions in small pieces (that don't require exposition)... otherwise the mailing list is a better place for it.

[05:43] <PTK> jsestri2, does your mouse work with gpm?
[05:43] <nickrud> GuardianAtomos, if you need the source, it's linux-source-2.6.12
[05:43] <Ryannnn> whats the paste bin bro?
[05:43] <jsestri2> PTK: what is gpm?
[05:43] <mrios> Pupeno: Thanks for your help, it is good to know that someone is listening
[05:43] <dyrne> has someone made a python script to check for ntfs type in fstab and update?
[05:43] <SaZWeRX> i just downloaded the new firefox, how can i replace the default with the new one?
[05:43] <pschmitt> Mayavi is on packages.ubuntu.com, but I cannot find it in Synaptic!  What do I do?  (FYI, I'm using Breezy)
[05:43] <GuardianAtomos> Okay...so even if it's not in Synaptic, I can still apt-get it?
[05:43] <nismo> that really doesnt answer the question or solve the problem that i have
[05:43] <PTK> jsestri2, it provides mouse for the console
[05:43] <casidgcoi> jadaz87 he enter here?
[05:43] <jsestri2> PTK: its working under windows right now, and used to work under ubuntu before a restart
[05:43] <PwcrLinux> !tell Ryannnn about pastebin
[05:43] <PTK> jsestri2, its not installed in ubuntu by default AFAIK
[05:43] <jadaz87> casidgcoi no it is a company
[05:43] <jadaz87> !canonical
[05:43] <ubotu> Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, jadaz87
[05:43] <mrios> Pupeno: I just posted my question in the ubuntu forums http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=157809
[05:44] <cartesian1984> jsestri2, I don't remember what the command was, there's one to make xorg generate a new config, that might help...
[05:44] <nickrud> pschmitt, try ctl-f in synaptic, that's the search function
[05:44] <Pupeno> nismo: I don't know how to solve your problem, but you were asking for the wrong thing. With the right question it is a trivial task (it would be trivial for me on Kubuntu).
[05:44] <intelikey> dyrne why python ?
[05:44] <Ryannnn> why do u want me
[05:44] <Ryannnn> to paste it there
[05:44] <dyrne> intelikey: no reason its all i know :)
[05:44] <jadaz87> casidgcoi http://www.canonical.com/projects
[05:44] <jsestri2> cartesian1984: already did that sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:44] <Ryannnn> will it take a few days for the issue to get it resolved?
[05:44] <Pupeno> mrios: how did you try to locate your device ?
[05:44] <GuardianAtomos> Ryannnn: It's considered "annoying" or rude to paste stuff in a chat.
[05:44] <nickrud> dyrne, there's a bash script for it somewhere
[05:44] <PwcrLinux> Ryannnn: because some ppls complains floods in here
[05:44] <intelikey> dyrne shell script might be easer for that task
[05:44] <nismo> How do I make a bootable cd using ubuntu? I have the iso image and a dvd in the cd burner, what steps do i follow to make the iso bootable?
[05:44] <casidgcoi> jadaz87 thank you
[05:44] <dyrne> Ryannnn: paste it there i will fix and give you updated file
[05:44] <jsestri2> nickrud: in your lsmod, does psmouse show up?
[05:45] <Ryannnn> Ok
[05:45] <PTK> jsestri2, if you have the universe repository enabled in your sources list you can install it by doing apt-get install gpm
[05:45] <Ryannnn> i pasted it there bro.
[05:45] <Pupeno> mrios: try the mailing list, there tends to be, in my opining, more experienced people on the mailing list.
[05:45] <nickrud> jsestri2, yes
[05:45] <dyrne> Ryannnn: what is the url?
[05:45] <jsestri2> PTK: alright i'll try that
[05:45] <mrios> Pupeno: I have done lsusb, lsmod
[05:45] <jsestri2> nickrud: where would i put it to make it load again? it does not appear in my lsmod?
[05:45] <Ryannnn> Posted by HELp me plz :( Mon 10th Apr 05:44 (download)
[05:45] <mrios> Pupeno: the USB is seen by the computer, the driver is loaded
[05:45] <Ryannnn> thats what its named
[05:45] <PTK> jsestri2, then change to a console and see if you have mouse
[05:45] <nickrud> jsestri2, it should be in /etc/modules
[05:45] <Ryannnn> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11928
[05:45] <cartesian1984> jsestri2, try xorgconfig, or is it the same thing?
[05:45] <Pupeno> nismo: if you have an iso image you don't mind about bootability or making an iso image, your question is: "Using Ubuntu how do I burn my ISO image to a DVD ?"
[05:46] <jsestri2> nickrud: whats the easiest console text editor?
[05:46] <pschmitt> Mayavi is on packages.ubuntu.com, but it is not in Synaptic!  I've tried using Synaptic's "Search" function and it is definitely not there.  What do I do?  (FYI, I'm using Breezy)
[05:46] <nickrud> jsestri2, nano
[05:46] <Dissident> trying to migrate from windows to ubuntu, one problem I've had is installing applications.  I've pretty much given up and plan on using a package manager exclusively from now on.  After installing something using synaptic, if a menu entry isn't created then I have no idea how to find the new application.  Am I missing something here?
[05:46] <jsestri2> nickrud: thanks i'll try that
[05:46] <nismo> ya
[05:46] <GuardianAtomos> pschmitt: Did you try "sudo apt-get install packagename"?
[05:46] <nismo> sounds like a reasonable interpretation of what i asked
[05:46] <skeen> I am getting a SERIOUSLY annoying problem when trying to install a driver through ndiswrapper. It didn't work, so I am trying again...however, now when I call ndiswrapper, it just doesn't do anything!
[05:46] <Pupeno> mrios: it doesn't appear on lsusb ? that's strange. Unfortunately, I don't have any experience with that kind of devices, I am sorry.
[05:47] <nismo> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BurningIsoHowto <--- I was using those but they didnt help
[05:47] <Pupeno> nismo: your question is much more complicated, making a bootable image is explained in tutorials of 10s of pages.
[05:47] <nickrud> pschmitt, it's in the universe repository, you need to enable it. see the following factoid
[05:47] <mrios> Pupeno: the device appears on lsusb
[05:47] <nickrud> !repos
[05:47] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[05:47] <Pupeno> mrios: and do you see it if you do ifconfig -a ?
[05:47] <Ryannnn> btw dyrne Im new to linux like this is my first time trying it so sorry if i seem like im annoying  u with my stupidy
[05:47] <mrios> Pupeno: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 2001:3c00 D-Link Corp. [hex]
[05:47] <nismo> well i guess i gotta read 10s of pages
[05:47] <asdf25> Dissident: i think GUI programs should generally be put into the menus... others you can run from terminal
[05:47] <clever> how do i get amd to work on ubuntu?
[05:47] <mrios> Pupeno: no, I do not
[05:47] <dyrne> Ryannnn: np i was in same boat last year
[05:47] <clever> the man pages didnt explain the conf files compltetly
[05:48] <Pupeno> nismo: no, you don't.
[05:48] <mrios> Pupeno: the device should be called rausb0... I have set the alias so it is like that
[05:48] <mrios> Pupeno: but it does not find it
[05:48] <Pupeno> somehow the module is not right.
[05:48] <mrios> Pupeno: I posted my dmesg error report on my forum post
[05:48] <Dissident> I just installed gnucash using synaptic and I know it's a gui app.  But it's nowhere in the menus...

[05:48] <ubotu> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[05:48] <GuardianAtomos> What are universe and multiverse packages?
[05:48] <PTK> clever, ?? I assume amd is something other than the CPU?
[05:48] <clever> auto mounter daemon
[05:48] <Ryannnn> anywheys yea dyrne if i can get my xp parition working everything would be great i switched to this cause i heard its faster more reliable and more secure
[05:49] <dyrne> Ryannnn: open gedit back up.  type in terminal sudo gedit /etc/fstab then copy and paste your fstab details at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[05:49] <cartesian1984> GuardianAtomos, universe is assorted open source stuff. Multiverse is closed.
[05:49] <PTK> clever, oh right :D my bad
[05:49] <nickrud> Dissident, you'll need to create a menu entry for it, apps-system tools-menu editor
[05:49] <GuardianAtomos> Gotcha.
[05:49] <GuardianAtomos> cartesian1984: Thanks.
[05:49] <mrios> Pupeno: so you think the module is defective?
[05:49] <cartesian1984> GuardianAtomos, np
[05:49] <clever> i got amd installed but the man pages are prety much useless
[05:49] <intelikey> clever not paying attention to what you are working on but man pages exist for many .conf files as well.   like  man xorg.conf for example.
[05:49] <nickrud> Dissident, or, simply alt-f2 and type gnucash if you're lazy like me
[05:49] <Pupeno> mrios: maybe, maybe the parameter you pass (or you miss to pass) to it.
[05:49] <clever> the man page says to set map_name to a file
[05:49] <pschmitt> nickrud: cool--it looks like it's working!
[05:50] <clever> then doesnt explain what to put there
[05:50] <Pupeno> What program do you use on Ubuntu to burn an ISO image ? That is, a K3B counterpart.
[05:50] <pschmitt> nickrud: thanks!
[05:50] <nickrud> pschmitt, yw
[05:50] <mrios> Pupeno: how do I pass a parameter to the driver?
[05:50] <cartesian1984> FarFetched22, is it working yet?
[05:50] <Toma-> Pupeno: gnomebaker
[05:50] <clever> does amd use the fstab to find out what it has to mount?
[05:50] <Pupeno> mrios: at modprobe time you can do it, but I am not sure, I never had to do it.
[05:50] <Dissident> running from the command line worked great but how do I find out where the actual program is installed to?  Just search or is there a default dir?
[05:50] <irvs10tz> is there any way i can defrag my volume in ubuntu?
[05:50] <Pupeno> nismo: there you have your answer, gnomebaker.
[05:51] <Pupeno> Toma-: thank you.
[05:51] <nickrud> irvs10tz, not necessary
[05:51] <pschulz01> Looks like 'webdav' is part of the apache2-common package and is already installed for me.
[05:51] <PTK> clever, http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/1347 seems to have some info on it
[05:51] <Ryannnn> ok done that dyrne
[05:51] <intelikey> clever if it's linux it reads /etc/fstab
[05:51] <Ryannnn> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11929
[05:51] <Ryannnn> thats the link
[05:51] <Toma-> Pupeno: np[
[05:51] <clever> its ubuntu
[05:51] <clever> which is why im here:O
[05:51] <irvs10tz> hello.. anyone here?
[05:51] <mrios> Pupeno: I will write a post to the list to see if they can helpme. Thanks a lot.
[05:51] <nickrud> Dissident, the best way to find that is dpkg -L gnucash | grep bin (works nearly always for nearly all packages)
[05:52] <Pupeno> you are welcome.
[05:52] <Pupeno> off to sleep now. See you!
[05:52] <Dissident> nickrud, thank you
[05:53] <Toma-> clever: amd? like the cpu?
[05:53] <Ryannnn> is anyone else a complete noob here like me
[05:53] <TruckerMan> crimsun, i cut and paste exactly and rebooted and it didnt load, i then tried manually loading what we had working yesterday and that doesnt even work.
[05:53] <irvs10tz> nickrud, it's not necessary to defrag in ubuntu? why did you say so?
[05:53] <clever> auto mounter daemon
[05:53] <TruckerMan> you there crimsun?
[05:53] <nickrud> Dissident, yw
[05:53] <PTK> where can I get my hands on older version of the 2.6.15-x series of kernel images? archive.ubuntu only has 19 and 20
[05:54] <nickrud> irvs10tz, because ext3 is smarter than ntfs about disk layouts
[05:54] <clever> i have 2 kernels on my ubuntu which i could upload to you
[05:54] <nismo_> damn my dsl just killed itself
[05:54] <clever> 2.6.12-[9,10]
[05:54] <dyrne> Ryannnn: replace your fstab with this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11931
[05:54] <clever> not what you need:(
[05:55] <PTK> clever, I have .6.12-10
[05:55] <nismo_> Ok, So I want to make a bootable DVD from an ISO, how can I do that?
[05:55] <dyrne> Ryannnn: then reboot
[05:56] <nickrud> PTK, take a look in /var/cache/apt/archives, you might have one there, depending on your config options
[05:56] <PTK> clever, hald seems to be locking up in an uninterruptable context.. and it hapens with 2.6.15-19 and 20... but works okay with 2.6.12-10... I'm trying to find where it started
[05:56] <TruckerMan> i think crimsun's stumped
[05:56] <dyrne> Ryannnn: if that doesnt work and you cant boot xp i think your partition might be hosed
[05:56] <intelikey> well i've done the impossable.    i use runlevel 1 exclusively    and have no login account.   (all passwds are locked)
[05:56] <TruckerMan> or away
[05:56] <jsestri2> nickrud: i just tried what you said, no luck
[05:56] <nismo_> :o
[05:56] <cartesian1984> Good night, everyone.
[05:56] <TruckerMan> hmmm, this sux
[05:56] <nickrud> jsestri2, if you sudo modprobe psmouse does your mouse start working? (I assumed you'd already done that)
[05:56] <jsestri2> nickrud: psmouse is in /etc/modules, i tried lsmod, it still dosent show up, and modprobe lsmod returns FATAL: cannot locate module psmouse
[05:57] <jsestri2> nickrud: i only have access to the virtual terminal though, would that make a difference?
[05:57] <Ryannnn> what do u mean
[05:57] <Ryannnn> hosed?
[05:57] <irvs10tz> hey, i need help.. why is it that when i play flash movies, i can't hear anything?
[05:57] <pvd2006> how can you setup a shell file to run without having to goto the directory its in and without having to type the directory in for it
[05:57] <nismo_> Ok, So I want to make a bootable DVD from an ISO, how can I do that?
[05:57] <intelikey> hosed=all washed up      ruined
[05:57] <dyrne> Ryannnn: http://dict.die.net/hosed/ :)
[05:58] <intelikey> hosed is akin to borked
[05:58] <nickrud> lib/modules/2.6.12-10-386/kernel/drivers/input/mouse/psmouse.ko <-- does that exist, jsestri2
[05:58] <jsestri2> nickrud: yes i checked that
[05:58] <biovore> or busticated
[05:58] <TruckerMan> now i got a fugged up system with all kind of confugged up crazy stuff, anybody know how to reset a bunch or sound card commands i have no idea what crimsun had me doin to this system
[05:58] <Ryannnn> its not screw'd man it was worken
[05:58] <Ryannnn> an hour ago
[05:58] <Ryannnn> before i partiond xp and ubunto
[05:58] <jsestri2> nickrud: im running 2.6.15-20-386 though
[05:58] <biovore> or fubar
[05:58] <nickrud> jsestri2, try sudo depmod -a , then modprobe again (I'm using the same)
[05:58] <jsestri2> nickrud: but it exists down both paths
[05:58] <Trae> Anyone[tm]  know why I can't rename icons on my desktop in Dapper Drake?
[05:58] <dyrne> Ryannnn: you might be able to recover but your grub and fstab are both correct
[05:58] <fabri> have a problem with firefox and ubuntu, could anyone help me?
[05:58] <jsestri2> nickrud: alright i'll give that a go
[05:59] <dyrne> Ryannnn: but reboot first
[05:59] <intelikey> no fubar is more than hosed, fubar is to hosed what less is to more
[05:59] <nickrud> jsestri2, I think I won't be shutting down ubuntu for a bit
[05:59] <Ryannnn> Yea, i will in a few i hope this works
[05:59] <TruckerMan> most partition software WARNS you this could happen and recomend back up
[05:59] <Ryannnn> Alot of info is in that parition
[05:59] <fabri> please i need help!
[06:00] <pvd2006> fabri, ask the question
[06:00] <nismo_> Ok, So I want to make a bootable DVD from an ISO, how can I do that?
[06:00] <dyrne> Ryannnn: lets see if youre able to open hda1 after reboot
[06:00] <LeeJunFan> when you use the DVD as live does it offer more installed packages than the CD?
[06:00] <Falstius> hi, I'm running breezy and trying to get my webcam to work.  I installed the spca5xx-20060402 drivers (using gcc-3.4) since supposedly the ones in the kernel don't work but I still get the message "can't open /dev/video0: No space left on device" ... the drivers are loaded and dmesg says it found the camera and lists the resolution correctly.
[06:00] <nickrud> intelikey, that's intelligent to a tiny piece of humanity, you need a better analogy :)
[06:00] <Ryannnn> alright dyrne i hope i can still remember how i got to this place
[06:00] <Ryannnn> and what server i waz at after reboot
[06:01] <FarFetched22> Has anyone here had problems with the Realtek RTL8139 network card and Ubuntu?
[06:01] <dyrne> Ryannnn: good luck
[06:01] <intelikey> nickrud i was targeting that tiny portion :)
[06:01] <pvd2006> Does anyone know how to set a path up for a shell script so it will run just by calling its name anywhere
[06:01] <TruckerMan> i just want my damn soundcard to work and crimsun got it working but not loading on boot and then had me do somethin screwed up now its not working at all... is there a way to scrap everything he had me do and start fresh with like alsa or even ndiswrapper?
[06:01] <irvs10tz> hey, i need help.. why is it that when i play flash movies, i can't hear anything?
[06:01] <fabri> pvd2006: i use the alternative us-intl keyb layout, it works fine with notepad and openwriter, but in firefox my keyboard works like normal english layout and i really need to write down accents and stuff like that because i write a lot in spanish
[06:01] <nickrud> pvd2006, put the shell script in /usr/local/bin
[06:02] <intelikey> pvd2006 put said shell script in /usr/local/bin
[06:02] <nickrud> !flash
[06:02] <ubotu> Installation & troubleshooting for Flash is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[06:02] <NxNxmox> hey guys
[06:02] <NxNxmox>  W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
[06:02] <pvd2006> ah, I was thinking of that, but I thought there was a file I could put a new path into, but I guess that will work;)
[06:02] <NxNxmox> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[06:02] <NxNxmox> keep getting this
[06:02] <NxNxmox> not sure what it means
[06:03] <nickrud> irvs10tz, the ubotu message above points you at sound fixes
[06:03] <fabri> i've been searching hard any guide on the web and found nothing about it, and i have the same problem with gaim
[06:03] <ASTX813> Does anyone have experience with Broadcom WiFi (preferably a Dell TrueMobile card)
[06:03] <nickrud> NxNxmox, did you do sudo apt-get update as it said?
[06:03] <pvd2006> fabri, I dont know anything about the alternative us-intl keyboard layout, but im sure someone else here does.
[06:03] <nismo_> Ok, I use ubutnu and I've loved it for the last 2 months that Ive been using it! Unfortunatly due to problems that I've run into, I have made the blasphemous decision to go back to windows! :( I have a win xp pro ISO image on my pc, I am trying to make it into a bootable dvd so I can install windows, can anyone help me?
[06:03] <intelikey> pvd2006 alternatively put it in $HOME/bin (which you can make)  and add  ' export PATH="$PATH;~/bin"   to your  $HOME/.profile   or .bashrc
[06:03] <NxNxmox> how do i do that?
[06:04] <dyrne> ubotu: tell ASTX813 about broadcom
[06:04] <NxNxmox> just type it in the terminal?
[06:04] <pvd2006> Thanks, intelikey that is what I was looking for
[06:04] <intelikey> the last example doesn't require admin privlages
[06:04] <Falstius> nismo, why a DVD and not a CD?  Do you have a license for win xp pro?
[06:04] <comrade> where is the dir to add xmms plugins
[06:04] <arrick> night all
[06:05] <jsestri2> nickrud: well, that fixed the mouse...now i've discovered the problem is bigger than i thought...now a lot of modules arn't loaded...network, sound, i didnt notice any others immediately
[06:05] <ASTX813> dyrne:  I've gone through the ndiswrapper steps and it appears to be properly installed, but I can't get the card to actually function
[06:05] <nismo_> er a dvd cause thats what it is
[06:05] <pvd2006> comrade, have you tried, whereis xmms
[06:05] <fabri> so, anyone knows how to make firefox and gaim use another layout instead of default english, even if the keyboard preferences has only the layout i want?
[06:05] <TruckerMan> f ck, i tell you what...
[06:05] <jsestri2> fabri: that would be an xorg.conf deal
[06:06] <NxNxmox> well i keep getting this when i use apt-get update
[06:06] <NxNxmox> [23:05]  <Yale> Failed to fetch http://ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net/dists/hoary-backports/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz  404 Not Found
[06:06] <nickrud> jsestri2, you do have problems. the depmod -a rebuilt the module dependency tree, so you might be alright for the rest on reboot
[06:06] <NxNxmox> bunch of 404s
[06:06] <jsestri2> fabri: type sudo dkpg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and change the settings
[06:06] <comrade> pvd2006, I was using locate and it wasn't doing it for, but whereis works thanks
[06:06] <intelikey> pvd2006 i always add  ./:$HOME/bin   to the path string in /etc/profile so that all users default to having both in their path
[06:06] <nickrud> jsestri2, although I thought depmod -a was run at each boot
[06:06] <Falstius> nismo_: a win xp CD is about 350 mb.  If it is significantly larger than that, then its not exactly standard.  If you downloaded it, well that's illegal and a good way to load lots of nasty crap on your machine.
[06:06] <dyrne> ASTX813: sorry no exp with broadcom myself the link about as far as my knowledge goes
[06:06] <nickrud> NxNxmox, that repo disappeared a while back
[06:06] <nismo_> falstius im quite aware of that
[06:06] <fabri> jsestri2: i've done that, reconfigured the xserver, and didn't solve it
[06:06] <ASTX813> k, thx
[06:06] <nismo_> well you still help me?
[06:06] <NxNxmox> so what do i do?
[06:06] <comrade> pvd2006, it only lists the exec locations though, I want to find a plugin dir so I can copy them to it
[06:06] <Falstius> nismo_: no
[06:07] <jsestri2> nickrud: that was what i was led to believe, maybe its not being run somehow now? that would explain lots of things not being loaded...?
