[08:49] <whyameye> francis: are you trying to delete from nautilus?
[08:49] <Lovloss> ... okay, im gona go get a gui
[08:49] <francis> Lovloss: yes
[08:50] <whyameye> francis: have you tried deleting as root from the command line?
[08:50] <nothlit> francis, alt+f2 gksudo nautilus
[08:50] <francis> Lovloss: can no longer delete saying an error im not the owner of the file
[08:50] <kuzmaster> meh!
[08:50] <kuzmaster> anyone? in this file http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35541/ , do i need the "server1.example.com" part, if im just using the server to host an intranet?
[08:50] <whyameye> francis: follow nothlit's advice (not my last advice).
[08:50] <francis> nothlit: what will happen with that
[08:50] <ArrenLex> Lovloss: Oh. add "-oac mp3lame" somewhere in there
[08:51] <nothlit> francis, the window can delete anything you want
[08:51] <nothlit> francis, it has super user privileges
[08:51] <francis> nothlit: is it safe?
[08:51] <jlaw> good morning guys, i just installed kubuntu and acountered some problems with amarok. it play almost all formats without problems but when i try to play an mp3 stream it goes quiet without an error ... sounds that familiar to somebody?
[08:51] <Bakefy> nothlit, i saved the files how do i knoe its working?
[08:51] <nothlit> francis, as long as you delete the right things
[08:51] <ArrenLex> timfrost: Thanks a lot for all your help. Do you have any links I could read so I can wrap my head around the whole issue? :)
[08:51] <nothlit> Bakefy, now, sudo mount -a
[08:51] <whyameye> jlaw: have you installed the restricted formats?
[08:51] <whyameye> !restricted formats
[08:51] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[08:52] <Bakefy> okay
[08:52] <nothlit> Bakefy, you can tell with mount -a
[08:52] <jlaw> whyameye ... i think not, thanx for the hint
[08:52] <burepe_> ArrenLex: whyameye I did the command but I can't find it. Where is it?
[08:52] <nothlit> Bakefy, then go to /media/hdb1 and it should be there :)
[08:52] <kuzmaster> anyone? in this file http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35541/ , do i need the "server1.example.com" part, if im just using the server to host an intranet?
[08:52] <nothlit> Bakefy, if you can't write to it ask me again
[08:53] <burepe_> ArrenLex: whyameye I found it. Thanks
[08:53] <francis> nothlit: thnks ..file deleted ...whats your email or ym id if u mind talking
[08:53] <nothlit> francis, sorry, just ask people in this chatroom
[08:53] <Bakefy> ist says it only have 32.1 GB of space (the size of the master hdd)
[08:53] <ArrenLex> burepe_: Top line, under the heading "HWaddr"
[08:54] <kuzmaster> anyone? in this file http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35541/ , do i need the "server1.example.com" part, if im just using the server to host an intranet?
[08:54] <cyber> lol
[08:55] <cyber> such a mission linux b
[08:55] <cyber> :/
[08:55] <ArrenLex> kuzmaster: You don't need the example.com part. The server1 part will be the hostname of your machine.
[08:55] <Lovloss> This website says "Debian apt-get source:deb http://tutuxclan.free.fr/debs . /       can i use the command lien somehwo to get this?
[08:55] <Lovloss> ah wait, i remember nevermind
[08:55] <ArrenLex> Lovloss: Did you get what I said above?
[08:55] <ArrenLex> Lovloss: Oh. add "-oac mp3lame" somewhere in there
[08:55] <kuzmaster> arrenlex:thanx!
[08:55] <francis> nothlit: do u know how to set a shared folder..samba already installed.i've used sytem admin tools shared folder but it wont work
[08:55] <nothlit> !samba
[08:55] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[08:55] <Bakefy> nothlit, you have any idea wy its not showing 80 GB and only 32.1?
[08:55] <nevermind> someone called me?
[08:55] <Lovloss> ArrenLex - im gonna use a front end ^_^
[08:56] <nothlit> !samba | francis
[08:56] <ubotu> francis: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[08:56] <jlaw> whyameye, uses amarok those gstreamer stuff?
[08:56] <nevermind> oh, i see, nevermind xD
[08:56] <ArrenLex> Lovloss: Good luck. xD
[08:56] <ArrenLex> jlaw: Like yoda, speaks jlaw?
[08:56] <whyameye> jlaw: honestly I don't know how amarok decodes mp3s. I use xmms. But I know in general ubuntu doesn't support mp3s out of the box for any of their packages because of its proprietary nature.
[08:56] <nothlit> Bakefy, you probably didn't partition it properly
[08:56] <Lovloss> lol the command line is too much for my brani atm
[08:57] <ArrenLex> Lovloss: but I gave you the command to run! xD
[08:57] <Bakefy> no, I did.  32.1 is what is left of my primary hard drive
[08:57] <ArrenLex> Lovloss: mencoder -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=flv:vbitrate=800 -of lavf -lavfopts format=flv -ofps 30 -oac mp3lame <infile> -o <outfile>
[08:57] <whyameye> jlaw: maybe this will help: http://winanga.wordpress.com/2006/03/18/amarok-mp3-support-in-ubuntu-dapper/
[08:58] <Lovloss> wait... so inline = Offic.mpeg  and outfile should be Office.flv ?
[08:58] <ArrenLex> Lovloss: infile is your input file, whatever its name is.
[08:59] <Lovloss> ArrenLex : mencoder -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=flv:vbitrate=800 -of lavf -lavfopts format=flv -ofps 30 -oac mp3lame Offic -o Offici
[08:59] <Lovloss> it fails
[08:59] <ArrenLex> Lovloss: you need extensions. Proper filenames.
[08:59] <ArrenLex> Lovloss: infile is the file you would "file -> open" in a GUI, and outfile is the file you would "file -> save as" in a GUI.
[09:00] <ArrenLex> Obviously the infile has to exist.
[09:00] <Lovloss> "Requested audio codec family [mp3]  (afm=mp3lib) not available."
[09:00] <thePuck> excuse me, I have a couple questions...everyone advices to do a fresh install of edgy instead of updating, but my burner is dying...if I do a fresh install of dapper and upgrade will that still have all the issues? Also, what is actually different in edgy?
[09:00] <nothlit> Bakefy, open gparted again and check the partition size and if there is any free space
[09:00] <jlaw> whyameye, thanx a lot ... it just confused me because it worked seemingly right after install in debian ... i expected it to be the same in kubuntu
[09:01] <Lovloss> ack "Cannot initialize muxer."
[09:01] <whyameye> jlaw: i'm surprised it worked in debian becuase of the same proprietary issues. Anyway, how you get it going.
[09:01] <ArrenLex> Lovloss: *confused* That's extremely odd...
[09:01] <Lovloss> :/
[09:01] <Bakefy> nothlit, 75.31 GiB unused.
[09:01] <whyameye> Lovloss: does mplayer play your video OK?
[09:02] <Lovloss> oh mplayer never works, i use vlc
[09:02] <Bakefy> Maybe I should restart or something for the setting to take effect?
[09:02] <ArrenLex> Lovloss: ...I see...
[09:02] <Lovloss> c.c
[09:02] <ArrenLex> Lovloss: Good luck then. xD
[09:02] <Lovloss> >.<
[09:02] <ArrenLex> ^-^''
[09:03] <whyameye> Lovloss: so if you type "mplayer <filename.extension>" what error do you get?
[09:03] <jlaw> whyameye, it's a oneliner posted on the site you gave me
[09:03] <nothlit> Bakefy, sorry, unused space... as in not assigned to a partition, it would be the last entry in the partition listing
[09:03] <RMorris84> what is the program i always see people using called,  the one that they are making screencast videos from?
[09:03] <Lovloss> mplayer: command not found
[09:03] <you_explorer> hi friends i new user of ubuntu  how i install realplayer
[09:03] <nothlit> Bakefy, that probably means you should delete that partition you have right now and make a new one that takes up the whole drive
[09:03] <RMorris84> you
[09:03] <whyameye> Lovloss: install mplayer and see if it likes you file: "sudo apt-get install mplayer"
[09:04] <nothlit> Bakefy, then sudo umount -a; sudo mount -a   don't mind the messages
[09:04] <Lovloss> woah its installing all these lib files
[09:04] <RMorris84> you_explorer: goto google and search for automatix
[09:04] <whyameye> Lovloss: let it do what it wants. Linux is chatty, but it shouldn't scare you. OS X and WinXP do stuff like that all the time but they shut up about it....
[09:05] <nothlit> Lovloss, you probably need to set mplayer to use xv, in command line its -vo xv and in gmplayer (graphical) its right click on the video window, preferences, video tab
[09:05] <RMorris84> you_explorer: if u just got ubuntu i recommend u stop there and check that out for sure
[09:05] <whyameye> nothlit: it sounded like Lovloss didn't even have mplayer installed....
[09:05] <quik_> hey folks
[09:05] <quik_> what is the command to create groups?
[09:05] <quik_> and manage groups?
[09:06] <ryukun> hello everyone
[09:06] <ArrenLex> quik_: addgroup ;)
[09:06] <nothlit> whyameye, no earlier he said it usually doesnt work
[09:06] <nothlit> whyameye, so i told him why
[09:06] <Bakefy> nothlit, If I right click to see the properties of the folder named hdb1 in the media folder, its volume is "/" is that right?
[09:06] <RancidLM> can some one suggest a good pda that would be able to sync up with ubuntu?
[09:06] <menko> Hi, I want to compress the contents of a partition (as bz2) and copy it to a folder. I guess tar -xcjf would be the appropriate base command, is there anything else I need to add?
[09:06] <whyameye> nothlit: he said the error for mplayer was "command not found. " now he is installing...
[09:06] <Lovloss> I have mplayer therwe now, but it says it cannot detect video output when i try to open a file with it
[09:06] <burepe_> can someone check this? www.ekoshi.net
[09:06] <ArrenLex> menko: not x. x means extract.
[09:06] <nothlit> whyameye, i said EARLIER
[09:07] <whyameye> nothlit: well in any case it sounds like your advice might help him now...
[09:07] <Lovloss> okay! mplayer offic.AVI makes the file open. yay
[09:07] <menko> ArrenLex: Ah yes,mad a mistake, so any more to add to the proper one?
[09:07] <whyameye> Lovloss: does it play OK and w/ audio and video?
[09:07] <Lovloss> this video has no audio
[09:07] <nothlit> Bakefy, no that isn't correct
[09:07] <Zelda> hello everyone
[09:07] <Lovloss> but yes
[09:07] <ArrenLex> menko: That will work. If you're compressing a whole partition as bz2, grab a cup of coffee because that's going to be a long wait.
[09:08] <ArrenLex> Lovloss: If it has no audio why are we bothering with this?! XD
[09:08] <tonyyarusso> Okay, ftp server up and running.  Now I need to know how to change the default directory for a particular user...
[09:08] <nothlit> Bakefy, cat /etc/fstab... then paste that in the pastebin
[09:08] <ArrenLex> Lovloss: mencoder -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=flv:vbitrate=800 -of lavf -lavfopts format=flv -ofps 30 -nosound <infile> -o <outfile>
[09:08] <ArrenLex> That's IT

[09:08] <menko> ArrenLex: ok, thanks.
[09:08] <Lovloss> ArrenLex: Still cannot initialize Muxur
[09:09] <ArrenLex> Lovloss: Oh, I just tried it on my machine. It says everything is broken. xD
[09:09] <ArrenLex> The smart people will tell you what to do. Ignore me.
[09:10] <Lovloss> u_u ooooey
[09:10] <Lovloss> it says broken on mine too
[09:11] <LordGoth> a question
[09:11] <nevermind> k all, i'm leaving
[09:11] <ArrenLex> !ask
[09:11] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:11] <nevermind> byeee
[09:11] <Lovloss> Uh. now it wont let me apt-get gmencoder
[09:11] <LordGoth> can someone instruct me on how to pull files from my NTFS partition over to Xubuntu?
[09:11] <chriskk> Anybody using Shorewall firewall?
[09:11] <quik_> how do I list all groups
[09:11] <whyameye> LordGoth: can't Xubuntu see the partition OK?
[09:12] <chriskk> I'm in the process of setting it up, but kind of confused regarding the  rules
[09:12] <LordGoth> not sure. how would I check to see if Xubuntu can see it?
[09:12] <LordGoth> I'm new to Debian.
[09:12] <Lovloss> it lists all these dependencies that are not installable
[09:12] <Bakefy> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35542/ nothlit
[09:12] <whyameye> LordGoth: is the partition mounted?
[09:12] <RMorris84> how do i make screencast videos in dapper?
[09:12] <LordGoth> I assume so, whyameye.
[09:13] <whyameye> LordGoth: I don't really get it. You have 1 disk w/ 2 partitions, one is Linux and the other NTFS?
[09:13] <LordGoth> no, 2 disks, two separate systems.
[09:13] <nothlit> Bakefy, yeah you skipped a step :) gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[09:13] <Lovloss> ahhhh i hate having to compile files >.<<<
[09:14] <LordGoth> /dev/hda is NTFS, /devhdb is Xubuntu
[09:14] <nothlit> Bakefy, then a new line that says /dev/hdb1 /media/hdb1 ext3 defaults 0 2
[09:14] <whyameye> LordGoth: so if you type "mount" on the command line do you see where /dev/hdb1 is mounted?
[09:14] <Bakefy> its says athentication failed at the end then the editor pops uo
[09:15] <nothlit> Bakefy, ok, sudo su -c gedit /etc/fstab
[09:15] <LordGoth> whyameye: this is what I get from terminal:
[09:15] <whyameye> LordGoth: sorry I meant do you see where /dev/hda is mounted
[09:15] <LordGoth> lordgoth@Bertha:~$ mount
[09:15] <LordGoth> /dev/hdb1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)

[09:16] <mooreand13213> is it hard to migrate from gnome to kde? i like the looks of kde better, but my comp doesn't like the kubuntu live cd
[09:16] <Bakefy> i just pasted what you typed on a new line
[09:16] <nothlit> LordGoth, never paste huge amounts of text into the channel
[09:16] <LordGoth> sorry
[09:16] <nothlit> Bakefy, if it actually saved, then run sudo mount -a
[09:16] <nothlit> Bakefy, and look at the properties of /media/hdb1 again
[09:17] <whyameye> LordGoth: try "sudo mkdir /mnt/hda"
[09:17] <nothlit> mooreand13213, it should be relatively simple
[09:17] <Bakefy> ARIGHT!
[09:17] <mooreand13213> how do i do it?
[09:17] <nothlit> mooreand13213, theres equivalent apps and kde actually has more
[09:17] <Bakefy> nothlit, you did it man!
[09:17] <whyameye> LordGoth: then try "sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda
[09:18] <burepe_> Is there any free dynamic dns service that I can use with my own domain?
[09:18] <Bakefy> tomorrow mythtv!
[09:18] <whyameye> burepe_: www.no-ip.com
[09:19] <nothlit> mooreand13213, ok if you want just a functioning kde without anything else, install kdebase, if you want kubuntu, then install kubuntu-desktop, and if you want all of kde you install kde (you can use synaptic, but a command line package manager from a virtual console would be preferable)
[09:19] <whyameye> burepe_: sorry. Might not support your own domain.
[09:19] <nothlit> Bakefy, ok see if you can write anything to the drive
[09:19] <Bakefy> nothlit, thanks for your help, I will tell others of your knowlege
[09:19] <LordGoth> whyameye: no errors reported back. I assumed it worked?
[09:19] <burepe_> yeah
[09:19] <nothlit> Bakefy, also, run ln -s /media/hdb1 hdb1
[09:19] <nothlit> Bakefy, it makes a link in your home folder, it might be usefule
[09:19] <whyameye> LordGoth: so you typed both lines? Can you see your files? "ls /mnt/hda"
[09:19] <burepe_> Ok, Anybody know a real cheap dynamic dns sevice?
[09:20] <LordGoth> gah, permission denied -.-
[09:20] <whyameye> LordGoth: try "sudo ls /mnt/hda"
[09:20] <LordGoth> ok, that worked :D
[09:20] <FirstStrike> burepe_: there are free ones
[09:20] <whyameye> LordGoth: so are you set then?
[09:21] <burepe_> can you use your own domain?
[09:21] <LordGoth> almost. can I now use Thunar to drag files from NTFS, or is there another way I have to do this?
[09:21] <Bakefy> I believe it is write protected
[09:21] <nothlit> Lovloss ffmpeg -i test.mpg -ab 56 -ar 22050 -b 500 -r 15 -s 320x240 test.flv <-- grabbed it from google results
[09:21] <nothlit> VLC can transcode things
[09:22] <burepe_> FirstStrike: can you use your own domain? Do you know the name of one?
[09:22] <whyameye> LordGoth: I don't know thunar. You could use nautilus to drag and drop. From the command line: "gksudo nautilus"
[09:22] <FirstStrike> burepe_: They all have their own rules. Google it.
[09:22] <Bakefy> nothlit, how do i take off the write protection?
[09:22] <LordGoth> ack, nautilus isn't installed.
[09:23] <nothlit> LordGoth, copy to another drive or write something to the ntfs drive
[09:23] <nothlit> Bakefy, ok, what is your username in linux
[09:23] <burepe_> FirstStrike: I did and it is not straight forward thats why I am asking.
[09:23] <Bakefy> westjd
[09:23] <lumar> question: when using synaptic i go to install nvidia-settings, it then puts nvidia-glx (which ive already installed) under 'to be removed' . but all guuides talk about installing both
[09:23] <whyameye> LordGoth: you are on kubuntu, huh?
[09:23] <lumar> how can i get the settings to install without it wanting to remove glx
[09:23] <nothlit> Bakefy, sudo chown -R westjd:westjd /media/hdb1
[09:24] <Bakefy> is the second one my password
[09:24] <nothlit> no
[09:24] <FirstStrike> burepe_: This isn't a support channel for dynamic dns services.
[09:24] <nothlit> its your group
[09:24] <whyameye> LordGoth: I would *not* recommend writing the ntfs drive from linux. Only read.
[09:24] <damageDOne> Hi, can anyone help me shift files from one computer on my network to another?
[09:24] <burepe_> ah ha
[09:24] <LordGoth> whyameye: I'm on Xubuntu 6.06
[09:24] <infinity1> if i put a video DVD in the drive, should fdisk -l /dev/cdrom show anything?
[09:25] <whyameye> LordGoth: right. Sorry. Forgot. is the xubuntu file manager called thunar or something?
[09:25] <nothlit> whyameye, ntfs-3g or captive are pretty safe
[09:25] <nothlit> whyameye, it is
[09:25] <infinity1> i'm trying to play back a dvd without luck.
[09:25] <LordGoth> whyameye: yes.
[09:25] <whyameye> nothlit: that is not how he mounted, thoguh.
[09:25] <Bakefy> i can wrtite in there now!
[09:25] <whyameye> LordGoth: then "sudo thunar" should be fine
[09:25] <lumar> pls help
[09:25] <nothlit> whyameye, yeah but you said ntfs drive from linux, might give him the impression ntfs writing is not possible/practical in linux
[09:25] <nothlit> LordGoth, no gksudo thunar
[09:26] <nothlit> LordGoth, never use sudo for graphical programs
[09:26] <whyameye> ok nothlit. You know best. Continue to overwhelm everybody with your knowledge. :-) I'm going to bed....
[09:26] <damageDOne> Hi...... I've got two ubuntu machines on my network and I want to try and move my home folder from one to the other. Can anyone help?
[09:26] <nothlit> whyameye, rofl no i don't
[09:26] <lumar> yo nothlit, might i request your assistance
[09:27] <Lovloss> One last try... i wish to turn Offic.avi to Offic.flv     It does not have sound. Does anyone know a working command that will allow this
[09:27] <nothlit> damageDOne, you need to install ssh  NFS or rsync, and use that to transfer files
[09:27] <Lovloss> because installing frontends is just as tough as anything
[09:28] <nothlit> damageDOne, I only know how to use ssh or samba from the top of my head, but rsync is probably the best solution
[09:28] <damageDOne> nothlit: I have installed NFS on both machines and have made the home folder on one machine shared. However, I don't seem to be able to view the shared folder from the other machine. :)
[09:28] <nothlit> Bakefy, thats great :)
[09:28] <Bakefy> nothlit, you're the best help!
[09:29] <blaa> nolimitsoya
[09:29] <Bakefy> thanks so much
[09:29] <nothlit> damageDOne, I don't use NFS... but its probably a user authentication or config file error
[09:29] <nothlit> damageDOne, are you sure you made the folder visible?
[09:30] <damageDOne> nothlit: I don't know how to make it visible? I added it using the instructions in the help... but apart from that I don't know what else to do.
[09:30] <LordGoth> why, even when I gksudo into NTFS, it gives a long message about not connecting to D-BUS.
[09:30] <nothlit> !NFS
[09:30] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[09:30] <LordGoth> I'm not going to risk it.
[09:31] <nothlit> damageDOne, you used those?
[09:31] <damageDOne> nothlit: Sorry what's "those"
[09:31] <nothlit> !NFS | damageDOne
[09:31] <ubotu> damageDOne: nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[09:32] <LordGoth> I wonder though...
[09:32] <damageDOne> nothlit: I'm not following you? I guess this is IRC speak.
[09:32] <LordGoth> is it possible to download stuff locally as localhost?
[09:32] <nothlit> LordGoth, oh dbus stuff, ignore those... that happens everywhere... anyways you mounted your NTFS drive read only
[09:32] <LordGoth> from one hd to another?
[09:32] <Lovloss> does linux come with GTK+ 2.4 ?
[09:32] <lumar>  question: when using synaptic i go to install nvidia-settings, it then puts nvidia-glx (which ive already installed) under 'to be removed' . but id like both to be installed, they are supposed to cooperate.h
[09:33] <LordGoth> is there a way to mount NTFS as read-write?
[09:33] <Corporal_Dirge> Ok, I'm trying to burn an audio CD from MP3s, but both my burning apps don'r recognize mp3.
[09:33] <nothlit> LordGoth, you need to install ntfs-3g
[09:33] <nothlit> LordGoth, ubuntuguide.org
[09:33] <LordGoth> nothlit: thank you.
[09:34] <nothlit> damageDOne, did you follow this guide?  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo

[09:40] <lumar>  question: when using synaptic i go to install nvidia-settings, it then puts nvidia-glx (which ive already installed) under 'to be removed' . but all guuides talk about installing both
[09:40] <fontis> i just installed it and its great
[09:40] <lumar> and id like to install the nvidia-settings. but keep the glx
[09:40] <meshyf> archive manager? That come with Ubuntu by chance or do i chgeck the package manager for that?

[09:42] <lumar> the older ones
[09:42] <quintok> hda, hdb, hdc etc... is that set by hdd order per boot?
[09:43] <lumar> but they arn't available in my synaptic pm, i downloaded them via aptitude just then using the line you gave me
[09:43] <lumar> so thanks, ill see where i go from here..
[09:43] <nothlit> lumar, if you're installing nvidia 1.0-9629 from an alternate place, you probably already have nvidia-settings installed
[09:43] <nothlit> lumar, try nvidia-settings
[09:44] <lumar> ok
[09:44] <screechingcat> how do i upgrade to the latest alpha of thunderbird ?

[09:46] <Z3dzDead> Hi, i've asked here before, but I am unable to run any ./configure files or scripts beginning with #!/bin/sh or #!/bin/bash. if i do `sh configure` at some point it says that C compiled programs won't work. please help :(
[09:46] <roy_> when i try to use make install, it says it is disabled... how do i enable it?
[09:46] <Z3dzDead> other wise, I'll have to reinstall - yet again
[09:46] <nothlit> roy_, sudo make install
[09:47] <roy_> nothlit: i used sudo
[09:47] <screechingcat> tonyyarusso: thanks mate. i'll use that to create a bash script to upgrade tb
[09:47] <nothlit> roy_, did you run ./configure and make first?
[09:48] <roy_> nothlit: there was no ./configure, but i did make
[09:48] <nothlit> roy_, also, make sure the build-essential package is installed
[09:48] <lesshaste> are there any linux im clients that support voice calls and/or the paint facility?
[09:48] <nothlit> ekiga skype
[09:48] <meshyf> How the heck do I install winrar? I need to open meh files D:
[09:49] <roy_> nothlit: I checked and have the newest version...
[09:49] <lesshaste> nothlit:  if I want to talk to someone on windows do they need to have ekiga too?
 zcat: or is it compatible with something standard on windows?
[09:49] <nothlit> roy_, what are you trying to compile?
[09:50] <nothlit> lesshaste, i wouldn't know, never used it
[09:50] <roy_> ipw3945 module
[09:50] <lesshaste> :(
[09:50] <yed> help: i'm trying to install dapper AMD64, and it's hanging on "creating live CD user". any ideas why?
[09:50] <nothlit> lesshaste, search for ubuntu penguin liberation front and download the skype deb
[09:50] <lesshaste> ok...seems no one supports the paint facility of modern im clients on windows
[09:51] <Z3dzDead> umm...guys. nothlit: my problem's similar- but installing build-essential wont help

[09:52] <Z3dzDead> i've checked the forums too. They say the similar thing- to change the script's first line from #/bin/sh to #/bin/bash or to check /bin/sh .setup.. nothing worked so far. so do I assume I've irreparably botched the box?
[09:52] <lesshaste> nothlit: ok.. is that an app name?
[09:52] <nothlit> lesshaste, no your 'paint facility' its actually called a whiteboard
[09:52] <lesshaste> oh ok
[09:52] <lesshaste> does anything in linux support it?

[09:53] <nothlit> Z3dzDead, do you have an error message what are you trying to install
[09:54] <nothlit> meshyf, enable the universe multiverse repos and install the package rar through synaptic
[09:54] <Z3dzDead> nothlit: i was trying to install fluxbox on 6.06. didnt seem to work. so i tried a simple bash script- same problem. error is at the line when the ./configure script checks the C compiler
[09:54] <Z3dzDead> it says can't compile C programs- something similar.
[09:54] <meshyf> Nothlit: Thanks, did that step just trying to extraxt now
[09:55] <quintok> anyone any good at grub? I'm having troubles with a hdd I'm trying to add into my pc.
[09:55] <nothlit> oh i got .configure and make for fluxbox to work... it failed much later on in the compile on some error i couldn't google anymore
[09:55] <roy_> nothlit: here is the output from sudo make install http://pastebin.co.uk/7102
[09:55] <Z3dzDead> nothlit: but i figure its not just fluxbox, anywhos, I'll just go ahead and reinstall  - actually upgrade to 6.10  if nothing else works
[09:56] <nothlit> Z3dzDead, did you try googling the error you got? and putting fluxbox in as a keyword maybe?
[09:56] <ryukun> quintok, what is the problem?
[09:56] <Z3dzDead> nothlit: not with fluxbox- just searched the ubuntuforums with 'bad interpreter'
[09:56] <nothlit> Z3dzDead, googling may help
[09:56] <Z3dzDead> k, will try
[09:57] <quintok> I get an error code 17 when I plug the drive in and reboot, which when I looked it up says it can't mount the partition.  Currently I have two hdds working on my pc but they're primary and secondary master and this one is going to be primary slave
[09:57] <nothlit> roy_, less INSTALL ?
[09:57] <meshyf> ok having a hard time getting this .rar to extract
[09:57] <nothlit> roy_, it says to use the load/unload scripts right there
[09:58] <roy_> nothlit: what does it mean to load/unload scripts?
[09:58] <nothlit> meshyf, rar -e packagename.rar
[09:59] <meshyf> Nothlit: Thanks :D
[09:59] <nothlit> roy_, try less README and less INSTALL
[09:59] <nothlit> roy_, they may have a .txt at the end
[09:59] <jlaw> OMFG! this is off topic but has to be told. i just went to the cigaret automat and on the way there were two women talking about Borat. One said something like: "Borat this nazi ... blabla ... establishment of right-wing extremism through the media ... balbla ..." WTF?  Passing them I said: "I always said it: that anti-Semitic jews and nazi-communists are the root of all evil!" The most sad about that were their faces who to

[10:00] <meshyf> Nothlit: Says command not found. D:
[10:00] <nothlit> meshyf, you haven't installed the rar package then
[10:00] <nothlit> meshyf, go install  it! use synaptic or sudo aptitude install rar
[10:00] <meshyf> Nothlit: I installed the unrar-free app from the repository.
[10:01] <nothlit> meshyf, lol then do it their way

[10:02] <meshyf> oh wow a manuel lolz
[10:02] <damageDOne> nothlit: sorry. got cut off. Yes I've looked at that howto. But it means nothing to me. I don't understand any of it. I am a noob who is smart enough to now how to cut and paste and can follow clear instructions. However, I don't want to follow instructions without knowing what they do.
[10:02] <meshyf> Thanks that makes this way easier
[10:04] <nothlit> damageDOne, well I don't have the time to look through it and tell you what to do step by step, maybe ask someone who uses nfs?
[10:04] <dreamer> hwz, ubuntu keeps losing the swap, lot of times I check top and there is no swap, I have to reactivate it, how can ubuntu keep it activated ?
[10:05] <damageDOne> nothlit: Okay I understand. I'll probably just run into the same problems with other people I might just get an external harddrive and do the transfer that way.
[10:06] <nothlit> damageDOne, why don't you install openssh-server and i'll tell you what to do
[10:06] <abuyazan>  libfontconfig1  package marked as broken package, because i tried to install 2.4 and it failed , how can i repair this

[10:06] <nothlit> install it on the computer that you want to copy from
[10:06] <nothlit> abuyazan, sudo apt-get -f libfontconfig1
[10:07] <nothlit> err
[10:07] <NineTeen67Comet> Hi all .. anyone in here running an Ubuntu Server? I'm having issues setting up a printer via web access (http://<IP_ADDRESS>:631) from another machine besides localhost .. I edited <Location /> to include Allow 192.168.0.* .. so I could set it up from my desktop machine ..
[10:07] <nothlit> sudo aptget -f install libfontconfig1
[10:07] <nothlit> apt-get*
[10:07] <damageDOne> nothlit: openssh-server already installed.
[10:07] <abuyazan> nothlit, did you mean -f install
[10:08] <nothlit> abuyazan, yes i did :)
[10:08] <nothlit> damageDOne, ok sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start
[10:08] <dreamer> !qmake
[10:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about qmake - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:08] <tuxtoti> im new to ubuntu..just now installed 6.06..by default gcc isnt installed rite?..but does the cd have it?
[10:08] <tuxtoti> or should i install it using apt-get from some repo?
[10:08] <dreamer> !Qt 4
[10:08] <jadacyrus-laptop> is there a way i can edit my remote-desktop settings via SSH

[10:09] <meshyf> Damn sorry guys i'm having a stupid time with this thing. I checked the manual and I'm messing up somewhere, starts to extract but fails for somereason. Is there a special folder I have to extract it to?
[10:09] <nothlit> damageDOne, then on the other computer do sudo scp -r user@192.168.0.xxx:/home/dir /home/newdir
[10:10] <tonyyarusso> tuxtoti: Yes, the cd has it.  Install the build-essential package.
[10:10] <abuyazan> nothlit,  gprayer: Depends: libitl0 but it is not going to be installed
[10:10] <kuzmaster> hey all!
[10:10] <nothlit> abuyazan, why not
[10:10] <abuyazan>  Depends: libpango1.0-0 (>= 1.14.8) but 1.14.5-0ubuntu1 is to be installed

[10:11] <nothlit> jadacyrus-laptop, it takes command line gconf editing, look for ssh vino-server and gconf on google
[10:11] <jadacyrus-laptop> ah
[10:11] <nothlit> damageDOne, sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart
[10:11] <nothlit> jadacyrus-laptop, i would recommend installing x11vnc on that computer
[10:12] <nothlit> jadacyrus-laptop, and doing a reverse connection to a listening vnc server
[10:12] <nothlit> jadacyrus-laptop, you could tunnel it over vnc, if you wanted
[10:12] <nothlit> jadacyrus-laptop, or not even a listening server, just run it normally and connect to it
[10:12] <fek> moin
[10:12] <nothlit> tunnel it over ssh*
[10:12] <jadacyrus-laptop> nice
[10:13] <yed> help: i'm trying to install dapper AMD64, and it's hanging on "creating live CD user". any ideas why?
[10:13] <nothlit> jadacyrus-laptop, installing and using x11vnc is much simpler... theres of course x0vncserver and x0vnc4server from xvncserver and xvnc4server  but they take a lot more cpu
[10:13] <nothlit> like 30%
[10:13] <damageDOne> nothlit: I assume I'm supposed to replace<EMAIL_ADDRESS>with something else?

[10:14] <real_ate> hey all :P
[10:14] <real_ate> hows it goin?

[10:15] <nothlit> damageDOne, without the /home/ of course
[10:15] <jadacyrus-laptop> and ran it
[10:15] <jadacyrus-laptop> but how do i connect to it instead of the vino server
[10:15] <nothlit> now run vncviewer on the other side
[10:15] <nothlit> and connect to it
[10:15] <tonyyarusso> real_ate: That's how it's done here, strange as it seems ;)
[10:15] <real_ate> but here goes... anyone ever try to install the cisco Aironet Utility?
[10:15] <nothlit> as soon as you run it its running lol
[10:16] <damageDOne> nothlit: the user name of the origin machine or the destination?

[10:17] <ubuntu> ok im trying to install 6.06 onto a sata drive how can i make the installer load it up
[10:17] <nothlit> dreamer, doesn't say it works or says it doesn't work?
[10:18] <kuzmaster> hey, im not quite sure where to ask this, so, im going to ask this both here and in #mysql........
[10:18] <damageDOne> nothlit: okay I got the message: ssh: ubuntu: Name or service not known
[10:18] <kuzmaster>  anyway, i did the command "mysqladmin -h frankie -u root password <PASSWORD>", it it came out with this result "mysqladmin: connect to server at 'frankie' failed" then,
[10:18] <kuzmaster>  on a new line it says this "error: 'Lost connection to MySQL server during query'
[10:18] <kuzmaster> help?
[10:18] <nothlit> damageDOne, /msg me what command you used
[10:18] <dreamer> nothlit: last.fm says I haven't listened to music and I have to install the software
[10:19] <NineTeen67Comet> I am attempting to add a printer to my server (headless) and using the cups web interface (IP:631) but I'm not seeing all the drivers that are normally listed .. is there another foomatic I need to install?
[10:19] <nothlit> dreamer, oh I don't use amarok, I just wanted you to clarify so people could help you... anyways have you tried listen? its gtk so you don't have to load kde libs just for one app (it has last.fm support, but i don't use it)
[10:20] <NineTeen67Comet> gutenprint? somthing?
[10:20] <dreamer> nothlit: Amarok is pretty good, except for the media-library :/
[10:20] <_JECKEL_> hello everybody
[10:20] <dreamer> nothlit: what do you use for music playing ?
[10:20] <roy_> what's the command to unload a module?
[10:21] <damageDOne> nothlit: did you get that?
[10:21] <nothlit> dreamer, i'm not mixing libs for one app, and yes there might be more than one, but by the time i find a new one ive found a replacement for the old one
[10:21] <nothlit> damageDOne, no, i'm sorry
[10:21] <frying_fish> roy_: sudo rmmod NAMEOFMODULE
[10:21] <dreamer> nothlit: er .. what do you mean ?
[10:21] <nothlit> dreamer, i use listen, but my main criteria is lyrics and how accessible they are
[10:21] <real_ate> anyone catch my question about using cisco Aironet Utility? anyone ever have any experience
[10:21] <dreamer> ok
[10:21] <real_ate> ?
[10:21] <nothlit> dreamer, listen is still the most feature filled in terms of what people think of mostly
[10:22] <nothlit> dreamer, in the gtk world
[10:22] <dreamer> haha, ok :)
[10:22] <dreamer> I'm in KDE atm, but I can try it
[10:22] <jessy> hi all, in what package is the "deb" utility ?
[10:22] <nothlit> dreamer, oh you're running kubuntu? lol then don't use gtk apps... that means you have to load the libs in your ram
[10:23] <damageDOne> nothlit: I tried using /msg but it doesn't appear to be working for me.
[10:23] <nothlit> jessy, a graphic and command line installer for debs is already installed
[10:23] <dreamer> I liko Amarok so far, but it's very case-sensitive, so if some tracks have different case for an artist, there are 2 different artists in the list :/
[10:23] <dreamer> andd I have that alot apperantly
[10:23] <nothlit> jessy, for command line try sudo dpkg -i packagename.deb
[10:24] <dreamer> I have all my music in a cetrain order on my disk, so I like the 'media-library' as it is in xmms, bucalue it just browses the list
[10:24] <jessy> nothlit, thanks but I'd like that precise tool called deb , I know some other do simlar things, but the syntax may differ
[10:24] <real_ate> anyone who ever tried to use the cisco Aironet Client Utility ever get to set a WEP key, mine won't let me
[10:24] <nothlit> damageDOne, you could just paste it into the channel if you don't mind people knowing your usernames
[10:24] <_JECKEL_> so..how easy is ssh to setup?
[10:25] <nothlit> jessy, the correct command line tool for installing .debs is dpkg or gdebi
[10:25] <nothlit> for gui
[10:25] <jessy> ok nothlit but some documentation tells me to use deb
[10:26] <nothlit> _JECKEL_, just sudo aptitude install openssh-server && sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start
[10:26] <jessy> I just would like to know in which package is that tool :)
[10:26] <nothlit> jessy, well use dpkg -i or double click on them and use the graphical tool
[10:26] <nothlit> .deb is the package format
[10:26] <nothlit> dpkg is the tool
[10:26] <Twinxor_> I wish "normal" apps like Firefox had a killring
[10:26] <jessy> nothlit, there is a tool called "deb" too
[10:26] <_JECKEL_> oh..cool
[10:26] <jessy> just I don't know where it is
[10:27] <nothlit> !info deb | jessy
[10:27] <ubotu> Package deb does not exist in any distro I know
[10:27] <_JECKEL_> lol..says it failed
[10:27] <damageDOne> nothlit: I've pasted it in the other channel.
[10:27] <kuzmaster> anyway, i did the command "mysqladmin -h frankie -u root password <PASSWORD>", it it came out with this result "mysqladmin: connect to server at 'frankie' failed" then
[10:27] <jessy> ah, sorry, I realise my mistake now, feel very stupid :)
[10:27] <kuzmaster> on a new line it says this "error: 'Lost connection to MySQL server during query'
[10:27] <bimberi> gdebi ?
[10:27] <kuzmaster> can some PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!! help me?
[10:28] <nothlit> damageDOne, which one?
[10:28] <jessy> it wasn't a command but a repository line, so starting with "deb" :)
[10:28] <kuzmaster> i really REALLY need this fixe
[10:28] <kuzmaster> fixed
[10:28] <nothlit> jessy, lol ...
[10:28] <bimberi> ah :)
[10:28] <damageDOne> nothlit: the one where you said "reply to this" "here"
[10:28] <Twinxor> what's wrong, kuzmaster???????????
[10:28] <jessy> well anyway thanks :) first step in a new distro are always a bit difficult
[10:29] <kuzmaster>  it it came out with this result "mysqladmin: connect to server at 'frankie' failed"
[10:29] <_JECKEL_> hmmmm
[10:29] <kuzmaster> anyway, i did the command "mysqladmin -h frankie -u root password <PASSWORD>", it it came out with this result "mysqladmin: connect to server at 'frankie' failed" then
[10:29] <kuzmaster> anyway, i did the command "mysqladmin -h frankie -u root password <PASSWORD>", it it came out with this result "mysqladmin: connect to server at 'frankie' failed" then
[10:29] <Twinxor> oh, I have no idea about that :/
[10:29] <_JECKEL_> Starting openBSD secure shell server... fail
[10:29] <kuzmaster> lol
[10:29] <_JECKEL_> hmmm
[10:29] <Doow> kuzmaster: stop spamming
[10:29] <Twinxor> maybe in another freenode chan - not really an ubuntu issue
[10:29] <kuzmaster> doow: sorry, i diddnt mean to, honestly
[10:29] <nothlit> damageDOne, i think your nickname isn't registered, just paste it in the channel or /join #damageDOne and tell me there
[10:29] <Doow> kuzmaster: sure..
[10:30] <_JECKEL_> I take it my ssh port isn't open?
[10:30] <nothlit> _JECKEL_, sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart
[10:30] <real_ate> wireless!! not working!!! please help!!
[10:30] <Doow> real_ate: lol
[10:30] <kuzmaster> !details
[10:30] <_JECKEL_> Restarting OpenBSD Secure shell server ok
[10:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about details - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:30] <_JECKEL_> is that it?
[10:30] <kuzmaster> !detail
[10:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about detail - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:31] <bimberi> kuzmaster: what is "frankie". It appears to be assuming that's a host on your network?
[10:31] <real_ate> i have a cisco card that i can't get working. i have only just managed to install the client that they give for linux (after a whole load of greif!)
[10:31] <real_ate> but i still cant seem to get it to work
[10:31] <_JECKEL_> oh awesome!
[10:31] <nothlit> _JECKEL_, yup, now connect to it with ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[10:31] <bimberi> kuzmaster: ... which it can't find - hence the error
[10:32] <real_ate> my profesional opinion is that its "just not working"
[10:32] <_JECKEL_> i'm connecting to it with a windows comp
[10:32] <nothlit> use putty
[10:32] <real_ate> or somehting like that
[10:32] <_JECKEL_> I am
[10:32] <nothlit> have fun
[10:32] <sc4ttrbrain> kuzmaster: try replace it withlocalhost
[10:32] <nothlit> if you want to bump up the security you should take a look at the ssh how to and advanced ssh in the ubuntu wiki
[10:33] <nothlit> otherwise if the ssh server is exposed to the internet it won't take long to bring in with a dictionary attack
[10:33] <nothlit> break in*
[10:33] <kuzmaster> sc4ttrbrain: allready tried that
[10:33] <kuzmaster> diddnt work :(
[10:33] <bimberi> kuzmaster: or try without "-h frankie" altogether
[10:33] <_JECKEL_> ok thanks nothlit
[10:33] <nothlit> or brute force
[10:33] <_JECKEL_> I just wanted something to do with my work time now >_>
[10:34] <_JECKEL_> and to see if I could do it
[10:34] <nothlit> _JECKEL_, have fun
[10:34] <kuzmaster> bimberi: diddnt work :(
[10:34] <nothlit> you can learn tunneling and keys next! :)
[10:34] <nothlit> then the scp command if you want to do it cli style :)
[10:34] <_JECKEL_> now I can use any terminal command I would use on the ubuntu machine it's self right? cept that ya know...visual applications wont work
[10:34] <_JECKEL_> right?
[10:34] <jessy> is there an howto somewhere to install nvidia drivers when you have a custom kernel ?
[10:35] <nothlit> _JECKEL_, visual applications can work over vnc, or if you enable X server fowarding in putty and install xming... xming.sourceforge.net
[10:35] <_JECKEL_> that will work for windows?
[10:35] <jadacyrus-laptop> is there a way to reload the gconf settings?
[10:35] <_JECKEL_> oh..and how do I shut down the server?
[10:36] <_JECKEL_> well that's funny
[10:36] <_JECKEL_> I stopped the server in the SSH client..still going though lol
[10:37] <real_ate> anyone here know anyting about cisco wireless cards or am i just wasting my time?
[10:37] <nothlit> _JECKEL_, yeah, you can install an x server in windows... if you want to maintain themes look into .gtkrc-2.0 file creation
[10:37] <nothlit> its supposed to thats what a server/daemon does
[10:37] <morphix> just a question.. has there been any PROPER fix out yet for the JMicron controller issues ?
[10:37] <nothlit> sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop
[10:38] <googie> sis 900 network card troubles MAC address: FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF any ideas what to do with this?
[10:39] <floating_> real_ate: probably someone :p ask same question in 2h or tomorrow or such, and you might get better assistancve than forums
[10:39] <_JECKEL_> hmmmm
[10:39] <nothlit> !google
[10:39] <ubotu> Google is a very popular search engine: http://www.google.com  -  Google also has a Linux-specific search engine: http://google.com/linux
[10:39] <floating_> my wlan problem got solved here, after I tried few methods on forums :p

[10:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about community - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:39] <nothlit> !wiki
[10:39] <ubotu> wiki is http://wiki.ubuntu.com - Loads of user-contributed documentation
[10:39] <_JECKEL_> so what should I look for to make my connection more secure?
[10:39] <nothlit> !wiki | _JECKEL_
[10:39] <ubotu> _JECKEL_: wiki is http://wiki.ubuntu.com - Loads of user-contributed documentation
[10:40] <nothlit> look for stuff there
[10:40] <_JECKEL_> cool
[10:40] <nothlit> specifically the SSHHowTo and AdvancedSSH
[10:40] <nothlit> the best thing you can do is use key based authentication
[10:40] <morphix> looks like ubuntu is still retarded and hasnt added a kernel to fix the jmicron issues
[10:40] <nothlit> theres a key creation utility for putty, but it isnt putty.exe.. .also make sure you use the export function
[10:41] <nothlit> and turn of password based authentication
[10:41] <nothlit> after that change ports
[10:41] <nothlit> the rest you will have to read
[10:41] <googie> any ideas how to permanently change MAC address?

[10:43] <nothlit> sc4ttrbrain, wait a while in between reasking
[10:43] <noober> um quick question, how do i change to Host-Only?
[10:43] <dollsong> Hello Ubuntu
[10:44] <sc4ttrbrain> i did :p
[10:45] <Seveas> sc4ttrbrain, usplash doesn't support transparency
[10:45] <noober> im trying to get my internet working on my newly installed ubuntu
[10:45] <noober> and i need to Shut down the vmware OS and change the networking option from NAT to Bridged
[10:45] <noober> but how?
[10:45] <nothlit> hit the the big red button
[10:45] <dreamer> nothlit: Listen also has this case-sensitive medialibrary, that sucks :/ I don't want to rename every trock that has different casing :/
[10:45] <sc4ttrbrain> Seveas: really? but, i see some ppl on kde-look or gnome-look compile their theme.. and it use transparent png
[10:45] <dreamer> atm I can't even because it's all on ntfs-disk
[10:46] <nothlit> and then change the properties of the machine
[10:46] <Seveas> sc4ttrbrain, as the person who implemented large parts of usplash I can tell you that transparency isn't supported :)
[10:47] <sc0tt> Seveas :D
[10:47] <sc0tt> morning folks
[10:47] <Seveas> hi sc0tt
[10:47] <noober> anyone know how to Shut down the vmware OS and change the networking option from NAT to Bridged??
[10:47] <sc4ttrbrain> Seveas: u might get me wrong, i dont want transparency like beryl, but what i want is like using icon which has transparent background
[10:48] <sc4ttrbrain> noober: check its setting
[10:48] <sexcopter8000> can Evolution be used as an RSS feed reader?
[10:48] <nothlit> dreamer, oh, maybe theres a gconf setting for it or  something
[10:48] <nothlit> dreamer, try googling it
[10:48] <Seveas> sc4ttrbrain, usplash doesn't support that, it'll render the transparent pixels as (probably) black
[10:48] <Seveas> sexcopter8000, no. Better use liferea
[10:48] <_JECKEL_> ok so I don't get it...
[10:49] <sexcopter8000> Seveas: thanks for the suggestion
[10:49] <_JECKEL_> I'm doing what they said in the wiki..but I can still easily connect..it's still asking for username and password
[10:49] <sc4ttrbrain> Seveas: yeah u maybe right actually,because i contact those ppl, but never get respond
[10:49] <_JECKEL_> nothing about a passkey...
[10:49] <dollsong> #ubuntu?
[10:49] <damageDOne> nothlit: did you see the output in the other channel
[10:49] <nothlit> sexcopter8000, if you really want to you can use thunderbird, but definitely liferea is the best program... theres also the sage extension for firefox which is popular
[10:50] <sc4ttrbrain> Seveas: thanks for info though its making me mad for days, just hope somedays it support transparency
[10:50] <sc0tt> morning Seveas :]
[10:50] <Seveas> sc4ttrbrain, if I have time it'll be supported for feisty ;)
[10:50] <noober> sc4ttbrain: i really dont know how to do buttloads of basic stuff, how do i check the setting?
[10:50] <sc4ttrbrain> Seveas: looking forward ;)
[10:50] <noober> if i can get there, i think im home free!
[10:51] <dollsong> Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalal

[10:55] <noober> hmmmm
[10:55] <sc4ttrbrain> noober: what edition is your vmware?
[10:56] <nothlit> sc4ttrbrain, no he didn't register his nick,

[10:58] <sc4ttrbrain> noober: what os are u tryin to install on vmware? ubuntu? and whats the host os?
[10:58] <Corbeaux> ifconfig witll show you the gateway i guess
[10:58] <Corbeaux> gtg
[10:59] <noober> im just running ubuntu, only one partition
[11:00] <sc4ttrbrain> noober: and ur problem would be..? installing other os on vmware?
[11:00] <sc4ttrbrain> noober: use my name to make clear ur talkin to me ;)
[11:01] <noober> sc4ttbrain; no im just trying to get ubuntu to load these web pages, and to do that i need to switch SOMETHING to host only... allegedly, so ive read elsewhere :)

[11:08] <nothlit> Naamaah, you need to use a newer version of flash or your browser with aoss
[11:08] <noober> sc4ttrbrain is it possible im running on vmware without specifically installing it, just from installing ubuntu?
[11:08] <sc4ttrbrain> noober: d*mn u really confused me, minutes ago u said u want to turn off ur vmware
[11:08] <nothlit> absolutely not

[11:09] <sc4ttrbrain> noober: u need to read something about ubuntu :) or operating system in general
[11:09] <nothlit> zainka, it sounds like it doesn't want to write to the home folder
[11:10] <nothlit> zainka, if you're running the program it automatically has access to your home folder
[11:10] <noober> sc4ttrbrain indeed, that is true
[11:10] <paragon36> I can set the mtu size via # ifconfig eth0 mtu 1492 but where does one set the MTU size permanently?

[11:13] <mista> im trying to format my spare sata drive wht do i need to do?
[11:14] <sc4ttrbrain> noober: check in with ifconfig to see info about gateway and dns

[11:19] <paragon36> no ...
[11:19] <Itclanster> paragon36: so how should i proceed
[11:20] <noober> rausb0 i typed that in

[11:20] <Doow> Surghi: it's unicode http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/00a1/index.htm
[11:20] <noober> rausb0 it brought up nameserver
[11:20] <Surghi> thank you Doow
[11:20] <paragon36> itclan.... : you need to make for space available .... can be on the same disk ... look at fips (google) or if you have windows installed look at partition magic
[11:21] <Doow> Surghi: don't thank me, thank google ^^
[11:21] <paragon36> noober can you now read your /etc/resolv.conf file?
[11:21] <rausb0> noober: it should be nameserver followed by a ip address. which address is it?
[11:21] <Itclanster> paragon36: ya i was thinking about partition magic but i feared by hearing about its crapy acts
[11:22] <noober> rausb0 its <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:22] <paragon36> Yeah there is a risk involved ....
[11:22] <rausb0> noober: and is that the correct setting for your nameserver?
[11:22] <Itclanster> paragon36: ok i will try it
[11:22] <paragon36> No problem ..... Good luck

[11:24] <paragon36> I use a belkin router which also acts as a nameserver the private ip being <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:24] <paragon36> noober ??
[11:25] <petal> Hi! Nautilus is killing me! No matter on what kind of server I connect to (ssh or ftp...), I am never allowed to change file-permissions, because Nautilus is claiming that I am not the owner of the files. I am the owner and it worked before in 3 different programs on 2 different OSes ...What is wrong??
[11:25] <sc4ttrbrain> dead man talking !!! :D
[11:25] <noober> paragon36 im confused as to what do now that i know my nameservers ip address
[11:25] <reverb> Hi everybody. Somebody knows what the difference between linux-image-server and linux-image-server is?!
[11:26] <ibob63> i'm trying to setup a smb share. Reading my documentation it say "chown -R root:users /home/shares/public" . What does "root:user" mean?
[11:26] <eltese> Hi! Can anyone help me with installing nes, snes, SEGA, GB,GBC & GBA emulators ? :D I cant seem to find a good guide anywhere
[11:26] <sc4ttrbrain> ibob63: mean its own by root with user as the group
[11:27] <paragon36> noober   : enter this  :   echo "nameserver YourNameserverIP  > /etc/resolv.conf
[11:27] <paragon36> noober   : enter this  :   echo "nameserver YourNameserverIP  >> /etc/resolv.conf
[11:27] <rausb0> paragon36: problem is, he doesnt even know his nameserver ip
[11:27] <ibob63> sc4ttrbrain: thanks. that makes sense.
[11:27] <paragon36> I thought he said that he did just now ?
[11:27] <noober> rausb0 yea i do its <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:28] <dreamer> I have a button on my keyboard to open the standard browser, it worked in gname, how can I activte it isn kde ?
[11:28] <Doow> eltese: use synaptic  (or other package tool) and search for snes, gameboy and so on =)

[11:28] <zainka> nothlit I am running my programs from desktop and program is locatet in /opt/eagle catalogue. When exiting eagle it want to write a file whit settings to my home folder, but it  does not gain access.
[11:28] <rausb0> noober: it is now set to <IP_ADDRESS>, but you don't know if that is correct
[11:28] <paragon36> noober   : enter this  :   echo "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>  >> /etc/resolv.conf
[11:28] <rausb0> paragon36: nameserver <IP_ADDRESS> is already in there
[11:29] <rausb0> noober: did you configure your network interface using dhcp or did you set the ip addresses manually?
[11:29] <noober> dhcp
[11:29] <paragon36> Mmmm : Is this really the nameserver IP?
[11:29] <noober> yea
[11:29] <paragon36> DHCP ... ok
[11:30] <noober> i did cat /etc/resolv.conf
[11:30] <paragon36> noober : nslookup google.com
[11:30] <nothlit> zainka, you need an error to paste and you're probably not running it as the correct user or its writing to the wrong place.. maybe root's home directory
[11:30] <nothlit> my usb just cut out so i can't help you
[11:31] <noober> paragon36 whats nslookup
[11:32] <boink> it's "host" not nslookup
[11:33] <boink> nslookup is what is used to be called
[11:33] <kuzmaster> hey all
[11:33] <noober> man i just got dumped
[11:33] <boink> core dump?
[11:33] <noober> no by a GIRL lol
[11:33] <noober> seriously
[11:33] <boink> that's nothing, a core dump is far worse
[11:33] <pinPoint> lol
[11:33] <sc4ttrbrain> noober: nslookup google.com then u ll see some output
[11:33] <noober> lmao
[11:33] <Stormx2> Hi kuzmaster
[11:33] <kuzmaster> how do i change the deafult location that proftpd lets me in............ get me?
[11:34] <kuzmaster> like, i cant 'wonder' on my whole disk
[11:34] <Stormx2> kuzmaster: Its probably in the config file somewhere.
[11:34] <noober> sc4ttrbrain what does it mean to nslookup google
[11:34] <kuzmaster> gee, that help
[11:34] <kuzmaster> sorry
[11:34] <boink> kurzmaster: you want the user to only be able to log in to a certain chrooted dir?
[11:34] <boink> that's a called a "virtual user"
[11:35] <sc4ttrbrain> noober: the aim merely to know ur name server, because u dont know it
[11:35] <kuzmaster> no, i want it so hr (me) can go on the whole drive
[11:35] <pyrohotdog> Anyone know how to get xmame/xmess running on Ubuntu 6.06?
[11:35] <kuzmaster> "the user"**
[11:35] <Stormx2> kuzmaster: Look in the config file. It will be in there.
[11:35] <boink> then they should be able to login just like a normal user
[11:35] <boink> that's easy to do, I think that's already in the default setup
[11:35] <kuzmaster> but where is the config file?
[11:35] <boink> proftpd.conf
[11:35] <kuzmaster> its a bit hard when you dont have a GUI
[11:36] <sc4ttrbrain> noober: u get dumped because u reply too slowly and u ask something not important,makes everyone mad
[11:36] <boink> it's easier without a GUI :)
[11:36] <noober> whelp
[11:36] <noober> its 5:30 am
[11:36] <noober> i think i might be hitting the hay
[11:36] <kuzmaster> i know, but........ eh

[11:36] <kuzmaster> so, i just go nano proftpd.conf "
[11:36] <mauser> hi all!
[11:36] <boink> then do "locate proftpd.conf"
[11:36] <kuzmaster> thanx!
[11:36] <boink> nano, or vi if you want to tortue yourself with vi
[11:37] <kuzmaster> i HATE vi

[11:42] <sc4ttrbrain> nope
[11:42] <sc4ttrbrain> he ask too much
[11:43] <paragon36> All the time you mean?
[11:43] <paragon36> I can set the mtu size via # ifconfig eth0 mtu 1492 but where does one set the MTU size permanently?
[11:47] <niru> hello all
[11:47] <niru> any idea on installable cd creation
[11:48] <rastilin> Why create an installable cd, and for what?
[11:48] <nothlit> niru, reconstructor.aperantis
[11:48] <mnepton> niru: take a look at the OEM install method
[11:48] <niru> I am creating an installable cd with d-i
[11:49] <niru> I have come up with the iso image
[11:49] <rastilin> So what's the problem?
[11:49] <niru> but after the base packages are getting installed the process stops and no other package are getting installed
[11:51] <niru> rastilin:did you get my point
[11:52] <quik_> how do I get the UID and GUI of a user?
[11:52] <paragon36> cat /etc/passwd
[11:52] <fyrestrtr> quik_: to get it of your own user, type id
[11:53] <quik_> other users?
[11:53] <paragon36> cat /etc/passwd
[11:53] <fyrestrtr> quik_: grep username /etc/passwd
[11:53] <tomix> looking to connect to an OSX server heard that you can (with some tweaking of remote desktop settings) use VNC for this purpose.
[11:53] <fyrestrtr> tomix: ssh works great :)
[11:53] <tomix> Anyone got any more info and or some advice on a good VNC client?
[11:54] <mnepton> tomix: ssh + sftp + samba
[11:54] <rastilin> tomix, tightvnc is better for most purposes
[11:54] <paragon36> root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash    ..... this show uid of 0 (first 0) and gid of 0 (second 0)
[11:54] <mnepton> tomix: never send a GUI to do a terminal's job ;)
[11:54] <rastilin> It works better over low speed connections and just like vnc over high speed
[11:54] <rastilin> Unless your application needs a gui
[11:54] <glaz> where can i see what is the resolution of my desktop
[11:55] <glaz> dont tell me xorg.conf :)
[11:55] <mnepton> glaz: on your monitor?
[11:55] <glaz> yeah
[11:55] <tomix> anepton: im looking to administer the osx machine
[11:55] <glaz> the one im actually running
[11:55] <mnepton> exactly.
[11:55] <mnepton> tomix: you can do all that from the command line
[11:56] <paragon36> look in /etc/X11/xorg.conf  for resolution
[11:56] <glaz> paragon36, i know that.
[11:56] <paragon36> so ... ?
[11:56] <glaz> how to know one of the all its set in there i am actually using
[11:57] <kuzmaster> can some here PLEASE! help me with proftpd?
[11:57] <glaz> i want to run 1440x900, but not sure if AiXGL supports it
[11:57] <kandinski> my Edgy install (clean, not an upgade) keeps not using swap
[11:57] <paragon36> menu ....   Desktop/screnresolutution
[11:58] <VigoFusion> Whats the or where is the information to set up my box to help the sick kids?
[11:58] <paragon36> menu ....   Desktop/screenresolutution
[11:58] <kandinski> despite the fact that I edited fstab to replace /dev/hda2 for the disk ID
[11:58] <glaz> paragon36, what menu ?
[11:58] <kandinski> swapon -s gives me /dev/hda2                               partition       1052248 11780   -1
[11:58] <kuzmaster> anyway, i cant send files to the ftp server outside the home directory?
[11:58] <tomix> im sure i can, but the fact is that apple provide a suite of decent tools that do this stuff quickly and easily so I would really rather use those
[11:58] <kandinski> what can I do to enable swap?
[11:58] <paragon36> you window manager bar at the top !
[11:58] <kuzmaster> help anyone, im running proftpd as the ftp server
[11:59] <paragon36> sorry ... System/Desktop/ScreenResolution
[11:59] <fyrestrtr> kandinski: don't worry if its not using it -- its a Good Thing(tm)
[11:59] <glaz> i dont have dekstop in there
[11:59] <glaz> preferences and administration
[11:59] <paragon36> ok let me find the command ...
[11:59] <ashish> hello ppl
[11:59] <kuzmaster> ANYONE!!!!!!!!!!
[11:59] <ashish> i m a newbie
[11:59] <glaz> paragon36, thanks
[11:59] <fyrestrtr> kandinski: swap is only used when there isn't enough RAM for programs. So if you RAM is being used 100% -- no need for swap. You should always maximize ram usage, swap is slow.
[11:59] <kuzmaster> i cant send files to the ftp server outside the home directory?
[11:59] <kuzmaster> i cant send files to the ftp server outside the home directory?
[12:00] <ashish> wanna have sum good linux ebook
[12:00] <kuzmaster> grrrrrr, sorry for spamming
[12:00] <kuzmaster> i hate it when it does that
[12:00] <fyrestrtr> kuzmaster: what?
[12:00] <glaz> you're not only spamming, you're loud.
[12:00] <kuzmaster> i cant send files to the ftp server outside the home directory?
[12:00] <paragon36> yeah try  system/preference/screenresolution  ... lol
[12:00] <VigoFusion> ashish: I have one bkmarked if you want me to pull it up.
[12:01] <glaz> paragon36, i guess if 1440x900 is not there i just add it to xorg.conf ?
[12:01] <fyrestrtr> kuzmaster: because you are locked inside your home directoy by your ftp server. Go change the settings in its configuration file for your user. For safety reasons, ftp doesn't allow users to roam around the system via ftp commands.
[12:01] <ashish> vigofusion:didnt get u
[12:01] <fyrestrtr> glaz: are you on a laptop with an intel chipset?
[12:01] <glaz> fyrestrtr, no
[12:01] <paragon36> Glaz : yes but you may need to ajust the monitor section to accept it.
[12:01] <glaz> im on a desktop with a widescreen monitor
[12:02] <kandinski> fyrestrtr
[12:02] <kuzmaster> fyestrtr: ill look again............
[12:02] <VigoFusion> ashish: :)
[12:02] <glaz> same monitor on an other windows box runs 1440x900
[12:02] <fyrestrtr> glaz: ah, you can then set the resolution in xorg.conf -- and make sure your accelerated drivers are installed.
[12:02] <glaz> they are, im using AiXGL + beryl
[12:02] <kandinski> fyrestrtr: it uses zero swap all the time, and load goes super high when in dapper it used to just swap
[12:03] <glaz> ill try that
[12:03] <glaz> brb
[12:03] <kandinski> same case uses: firefox with a shitload of tabs, working in the gimp, and suddenly a conversation starting in skype
[12:03] <fyrestrtr> kandinski: how much ram do you have?
[12:03] <kandinski> it used to swap in dapper, now it crashes or gets s.l.o.w and I see load shoot up
[12:03] <kandinski> I have one gig
[12:03] <paragon36> Glaz : as mentioned add it to the xorg.conf ... then ctrl/alt/backspace should restart XDM
[12:03] <fyrestrtr> and how much of it is being used?
[12:04] <kandinski> oh right
[12:04] <kuzmaster> can anyone tell me where abouts in the proftpd config file i change stuff, so i can upload EVERYWHERE on the server?
[12:04] <kandinski> right now it is 60 for programs and 40 for cache
[12:04] <kandinski> I need to check how much when it starts going pear-shaped
[12:04] <Ubuntu> any help on gfxboot?
[12:04] <fyrestrtr> kuzmaster: you really, really, really don't want to enable that setting.
[12:04] <Ubuntu> newbie on linux here :(
[12:04] <kandinski> fyrestrtr: thanks. let me load the machine till load shoots up, and check memory usage then.
[12:04] <fyrestrtr> Ubuntu: ask a question :)
[12:04] <VigoFusion> Learning is fun!
[12:05] <paragon36> Ive asked the following many times does no one know the answer  ????
[12:05] <kuzmaster> fyrestrt: but, no one on the outside network can access that anyway
[12:05] <paragon36> I can set the mtu size via # ifconfig eth0 mtu 1492 but where does one set the MTU size permanently?
[12:05] <kuzmaster> fyrestrt:its limitited for inside-network only!
[12:05] <fyrestrtr> kuzmaster: the setting is in the configuration file, I don't recall what it is off the top. Use scp if you can.
[12:05] <sc4ttrbrain> paragon36: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=291123
[12:05] <fyrestrtr> paragon36: /etc/networking/
[12:05] <sc4ttrbrain> paragon36: but not the exact solution
[12:06] <kuzmaster> fyrestrt:scp? (sorry if im pissing you off, i dont really know anything about profptd)
[12:06] <paragon36> Ueah I thought that /etc/networking/interfaces
[12:06] <fyrestrtr> kuzmaster: scp is secure copy. A way to transfer files using encryption. A lot better than FTP.
[12:06] <paragon36> but cant see anything there as an example for mtu...
[12:06] <Ubuntu> hello again
[12:06] <fyrestrtr> paragon36: man interfaces should tell you
[12:06] <Ubuntu> it's about how to use gfxboot
[12:07] <Ubuntu> the graphical splashscrren
[12:07] <fyrestrtr> what about it?
[12:07] <kuzmaster> fyrestrt:but i dont need encryption or anything, im the only person in about 2kms radious that knows anything about this stuff
[12:07] <quik_> I want to kill a process (in a script) that is named (I don't know the pid) ... using kill -HUP
[12:07] <gradin_> if i have a ssh server running and i want to used key based authentication does the other box have to have an SSH dameon running aswell?
[12:07] <kuzmaster> fyrestrt: all i want is that ftp have full privlidges to the whole HD
[12:08] <frogzoo> paragon36: is this a ppp interface?
[12:08] <fyrestrtr> kuzmaster: then ftp as root.
[12:08] <trope> if you're going to use an ftp daemon use vsftpd
[12:08] <kuzmaster> fyrestrt:but HOW?
[12:08] <fyrestrtr> gradin_: no.
[12:08] <fyrestrtr> kuzmaster: in the settings file, there is a line that is commented out -- it allows root access. Uncomment it, save the file, restart ftp.
[12:09] <kuzmaster> ok, thanx
[12:09] <fyrestrtr> kuzmaster: then, create a password for root user, and login using that.
[12:09] <fyrestrtr> gradin_: no.
[12:09] <gradin_> fyrestrtr: so all i have to do is copy the key from the remote box to the .ssh/authorized_keys file
[12:09] <paragon36> Thanks Guys ....  /etc/network/interfaces  mtu <size>   :-O
[12:09] <kuzmaster> fyrestrt: once again... how?
[12:09] <paragon36> DOH
[12:09] <fyrestrtr> kuzmaster: how what?
[12:09] <gradin> ?
[12:10] <kuzmaster> fyrestrt:nevermind.........
[12:10] <fyrestrtr> gradin: yes, I believe so.

[12:21] <noiesmo> Paddy_EIRE, sudo apt-get install kde should do it
[12:21] <Paddy_EIRE> noiesmo: thx
[12:21] <noiesmo> Paddy_EIRE, then before you logon go sessions and pick kde
[12:21] <labanux> Paddy_EIRE, sudo apt-get install kde <-- then it will ask you, wether you want to use gdm or kdem to use
[12:21] <VigoFusion> labinux: Yes, the Plubins can be gotten from Synaptic Package Manager, System-->Administration-->Keyboard Plugins
[12:22] <Paddy_EIRE> labanux: noiesmo: thx guys
[12:22] <xukun> I wonder what your experience is with ipod and linux
[12:22] <labanux> VigoFusion: wait a minute

[12:23] <fyrestrtr> !es
[12:23] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendrn mas ayuda.
[12:23] <Paddy_EIRE> xukun: use amarok
[12:23] <taycom> thanks
[12:23] <labanux> VigoFusion: Plubins?? i cant found it in synaptic
[12:23] <finalbeta> !iso
[12:23] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type "sudo mount -o loop my.iso <mountpoint>" - bin/cue can be converted to ISO using !bchunk - ISO images of Ubuntu CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before burning
[12:24] <finalbeta> !md5
[12:24] <ubotu> To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[12:24] <Paddy_EIRE> xukun: then go to tools scripts and you can add more ipod functionality to the already great functionality there
[12:24] <xukun> Paddy_EIRE, thanks a lot, I will
[12:25] <labanux> VigoFusion: is there any command line i can use, to get back to the keyborad layout set step??
[12:25] <Paddy_EIRE> xukun: also if you would like try "sudo apt-get install gtkpod"
[12:25] <glaz> what about gtkipod ?
[12:25] <VigoFusion> labinux: apologies, PluGins, its early here and I have yet to drink my coffee
[12:26] <labanux> VigoFusion : its ok bro.. :D
[12:27] <VigoFusion> labanux: I am a wee noob when it comes to Linux/Debian commands. This distro is so great because most all can be done in GUI mode.
[12:31] <VigoFusion> labanux: Can you Xorg: the keyboard to get the setup that you prefer?
[12:36] <frogzoo> VigoFusion: just pick your layout from preferences -> keyboard
[12:36] <thomas> hey guys, my network card isn't showing up in the network-admin. what can i do to troubleshoot?
[12:37] <VigoFusion> frogzoo: Yes, that seemed to work for a few people
[12:37] <labanux> VigoFusion: wait minute.., il try it
[12:38] <frogzoo> thomas: look in /var/log/messages  where the kernel tries to figure out a driver for the card
[12:38] <thomas> frogzoo: ok. how can i make ubuntu edgy boot with verbose printouts instead of just gui?
[12:39] <VigoFusion> labunux: Look at the Layouts Tab in Keyboard Preferances
[12:39] <felixfoertsch> Cound anyone tell me in which units the geometry has to be given to ETerm?
[12:39] <thomas> frogzoo: what should i look for?
[12:40] <frogzoo> thomas: 'eth' would be a good call
[12:40] <thomas> frogzoo: duh... :)
[12:40] <soundray> felixfoertsch: pixels, probably
[12:41] <felixfoertsch> soundray: Thats the point - it can't be pixels. :(
[12:41] <Paddy_EIRE> guys which would be considered the most stable and combination between (aiglx,beryl,compiz,xgl) and do I need to install one of these or 2 and why
[12:41] <soundray> felixfoertsch: then it'll be characters
[12:41] <thomas> frogzoo: ok it says something about hda-intel: Invalid position buffer
[12:41] <thomas> frogzoo: any idea what that could mean
[12:41] <felixfoertsch> soundray: If I set it to 512 width - it should be half my screen. It isn't.
[12:41] <glaz> aigxl,beryl
[12:41] <soundray> thomas: that's your audio driver
[12:41] <felixfoertsch> soundray: How do I mesure it then?
[12:41] <glaz> Xgl is pretty slower and unstable
[12:42] <frogzoo> thomas: cut/paste into google & see what turns up
[12:42] <thomas> soundray: hmmm so theres nothing there about my eth card
[12:42] <thomas> frogzoo: yeah thats a sound thing i thinkm
[12:42] <soundray> felixfoertsch: try 80x24
[12:42] <soundray> thomas: is it a PCI card?
[12:42] <thomas> is there a way to do a dpkg-reconfigure for your network
[12:42] <Paddy_EIRE> glaz: aiglx and beyl ok... aiglx has the fancy effects and beryl is ??
[12:42] <thomas> soundray: it is onboard
[12:43] <labanux> VigoFusin: i ve look in my xorg.conf
[12:43] <soundray> thomas: does it show up with lspci?
[12:43] <thomas> soundray: just a sec
[12:43] <glaz> Paddy_EIRE, AiXGL has the same feature as xgl, but pretty faster on GPU/CPU
[12:43] <glaz> and AiXGL is part of edgy 6.10
[12:43] <glaz> no need to install Xgl
[12:44] <Paddy_EIRE> glaz: im using 6.10 how do I activate aiglx??
[12:44] <glaz> it is already "activated"
[12:44] <thomas> soundray: nothing under eth or network, and i couldn't see anything
[12:44] <glaz> you have an ATI or GF video card ?
[12:44] <Paddy_EIRE> glaz: then where is all the effects
[12:44] <soundray> thomas: is it disabled in the BIOS setup?

[12:46] <soundray> thomas: oh that -- if that doesn't come on, it usually means you have no power to the card.
[12:47] <soundray> thomas: now that's unlikely if it's integrated
[12:47] <soundray> thomas: so the next step would be to check the BIOS setup

[12:49] <labanux> VigoFusion: ok
[12:49] <Qwerty> :o
[12:50] <soundray> VigoFusion: PC105 is just a keyboard type, not a layout. It can still be qwerty, qwertz, azerty, dvorak, ...
[12:50] <Qwerty> :o :o its me!
[12:51] <VigoFusion> labanux: Yes, the 105 layout is the QWERTY, Generic US
[12:51] <naxxatoe> try dvorak
[12:51] <naxxatoe> thats a cool one :D

[12:53] <felixfoertsch> soundray: Is there a possibility to measure the size? Or to set the size with pixel as units?
[12:54] <soundray> felixfoertsch: I don't know -- is there a 'man eterm' perhaps?

[01:51] <frogzoo> cmt^^: it's a bit counterintuitive, but you have to have this line there "DISABLED_MODULES="fglrx"
[01:51] <admin123> frogzoo, ?? where in the man page I'm not able to find it
[01:51] <cmt^^> hmm
[01:51] <cmt^^> the guide tells me to "Make sure fglrx is not disabled: sudo gedit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common"
[01:51] <frogzoo> admin123: see the -h option to turn OFF symlinks?
[01:51] <RvGaTe> [GuS] , thx
[01:52] <admin123> frogzoo, that just creates another problem
[01:52] <hikenboot> http://pastebin.ca/268253  hello all I seem to have an issue with my bind9 dns not accepting writes to its forward zone webmin tells me Dynamic master zone  updates not allowed....any ideas/
[01:52] <[GuS] > Next time, read better :)
[01:52] <admin123> frogzoo, it dumps tghe files they point to
[01:52] <frogzoo> admin123: what it means is, backup symlinks is the default
[01:52] <RvGaTe> [GuS] , actually i didn't read anything :P
[01:52] <gc1> hi all, i'm having problems with graphical corruption of buttons since i upgraded from breezy to dapper. only happens in the human theme. any ideas?
[01:52] <RvGaTe> [GuS] , i just asked :P

[01:53] <[GuS] > First you should read, investigate.. then Ask here RvGaTe :)
[01:53] <[GuS] > we are not working free for you :)
[01:53] <cmt^^> frogzoo - any ideas?
[01:54] <cmt^^> the guide tells me to make sure fglrx is NOT disabled
[01:54] <cmt^^> and it is
[01:54] <cmt^^> but you tell me I should leave it as is?
[01:54] <cmt^^> I'm confused 8(
[01:54] <RvGaTe> [GuS] , i know, but its so much easyer to ask.... sorry about that
[01:55] <[GuS] > RvGaTe, then you will never learn using the easy way....
[01:55] <[GuS] > if why thre is to much info on the wikis, forums.. .site... etc...
[01:56] <cmt^^> Oh! nevermind frogzoo
[01:56] <cmt^^> The line I read was commented out
[01:56] <[GuS] > here is to evacuate your problems after you read about something
[01:56] <cmt^^> I have "DISABLED_MODULES="" "
[01:56] <ptitom> all: hi there, I can't have my SB Live24Bits to work with Dapper. I read the forums, tried all tricks out, reinstalled, reconfigured alsa but when loading the module it complains a lot ! Anyone to help out ?Cheers.
[01:57] <morphix> hi guys.. trying to compile my own kernel.. i only have base installed.. when i run make menuconfig it errors out.. but i cant see what its erroring about.. using |less or |more does nothing.. how can i see what the error is saying??
[01:57] <frogzoo> cmt^^: which is why it doesn't work
[01:57] <VigoFusion> I did download the Binaries from ATI, but used the fglrx to make it work, binary-restricted never was needed, yet, so trash they went
[01:58] <abuyazan> libfontconfig1: Depends: fontconfig-config (= 2.4.1-2) but 2.3.2-7ubuntu2 is installed
[01:58] <eltese> Hi. Im wondering something
[01:58] <abuyazan> please i need help on this
[01:58] <frogzoo> cmt^^: are you using the ati binaries or the seveas repo?
[01:58] <abuyazan> i cannot install any packages , i have to fix this problem
[01:58] <frogzoo> !helpme
[01:58] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:59] <eltese> I tried to install gngb (an emulator for gameboy) and runned the command sudo aptitude install gngb.. Everything worked fine and all but Ive got no clue at all where to find it :/
[02:00] <gc1> hi all, i'm having problems with graphical corruption of buttons since i upgraded from breezy to dapper. only happens in the human theme. any ideas?
[02:00] <cmt^^> frogzoo - i don't know, how do I find that out?
[02:00] <eltese> Anyone knows what the problem might be?
[02:01] <frogzoo> cmt^^: well the docs offer you various options, or are you using the ubuntu's fglrx driver from the repos?
[02:01] <cmt^^> frogzoo - yup
[02:02] <frogzoo> cmt^^: well update the restricted-modules & try again
[02:02] <VigoFusion> cmt^^: did you install other drivers also?
[02:02] <cmt^^> VigoFusion - not that I know of... :)
[02:03] <VigoFusion> cmt^^: Ok, was just makeing certain that a --purge is not needed, it has been know that  conflicting packages/Binaries can cause errors.
[02:05] <frogzoo> cmt^^: this is a very common problem - if you follow the doc properly, it works

[02:06] <NET||abuse> what is a good pop / imap mail server package? i've ended up sticking courier on one of my boxes,,, but i'm a little confused at how to get it working
[02:06] <NET||abuse> dovecot any better?? or what would be the one that most pros consider best practice?
[02:07] <NET||abuse> i don't mind spending time on it but i would like to be spending my time well on a package that will be the best possible rather than wasting time figuring out a sub standard system
[02:07] <VigoFusion> NET] ] abuse: I use Thunderbird, it works great
[02:07] <NET||abuse> Thunderbird is client software
[02:08] <Ropechoborra> !paste
[02:08] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[02:09] <NET||abuse> at the moment courier is not really running well, i havn't got maildirs or boxes working
[02:10] <VigoFusion> There is a chckfile like command, but I am just to green to figure all that out yet.
[02:10] <Madeye> Where I can find more information about Ubuntu cert? the LPI one?
[02:11] <NET||abuse> VigoFusion, fsck
[02:11] <VigoFusion> Thank you
[02:11] <NET||abuse> is this a drive surface integrity check or a file system check?
[02:12] <VigoFusion> File System
[02:12] <NET||abuse> that's fine then
[02:12] <NET||abuse> man fsck :) and google it
[02:12] <Enquest> join #jquery
[02:12] <NET||abuse> be very sure what you do with such low level tools :)
[02:14] <VigoFusion> Heck, I dont know how to set a valid domain to get updates. its rather daunting, I was once a EC Engineer, but I had an accident and my brain is still learning how to work.
[02:14] <dawkirst> Hello. Does Ubuntu has something like a system log, and where can I access it?
[02:15] <NET||abuse> dawkirst, /var/log/messages
[02:15] <NET||abuse> depending on what subsystem you want to check most logfiles run there
[02:15] <NET||abuse> maillog httpdlog etc etc

[02:17] <Placid> hi all, i'm looking for some information on UVFS. The CMS system i'm using needs uvfs installed but our server (dapper & edgy) doesn't seem to provide it via apt. Is there anything available for Ubuntu with regards to uvfs?
[02:17] <Placid> I have googled quite a bit and looked at packages.ubuntu.com (and debian) but to no avail
[02:17] <VigoFusion> !uvfs|Placid
[02:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about uvfs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:18] <dawkirst> Another thing: is it possible for Ubuntu to get sluggish due to an overheating graphics adaptor (mind, I don't know if it's overheating, but it's a possible...and it's really hot...)
[02:18] <NET||abuse> if the graphics processor is over heating it should just cut out and you machine would die, it's unlikely to slow too much,,, but i suppose it's not beyond the realms of possability
[02:19] <NET||abuse> i would just thinki t highly unlikely
[02:19] <Placid> Doesn't look good VigoFusion
[02:19] <VigoFusion> Hrmmm
[02:19] <NET||abuse> if you gpu is running hot it means your runnin alot of high graphic stufff, more than likely your graphics memory is loaded up and that's not gonna help.
[02:19] <Placid> tried multiple search terms too
[02:20] <VigoFusion> Universal Virtual File System?
[02:20] <NET||abuse> yeh, wasn't sure what uvfs meant
[02:21] <Placid> Just a sec
[02:21] <jimle> does anyone have problems with rhytmbox lagging playing over a samba share?
[02:21] <Placid> http://www.sciencething.org/geekthings/UVFS_README.html
[02:22] <Placid> That's all i've found
[02:22] <cmt^^> frogzoo - I tried going about it the way the guide suggests, but got the following error:
[02:22] <cmt^^> Found fglrx primary device section
[02:22] <cmt^^> Nothing to do, terminating.
[02:22] <Placid> i'm reluctant to compile it myself, i prefer the debian way :)
[02:23] <frogzoo> cmt^^: you installed the linux-restricted module?
[02:23] <cmt^^> frogzoo - it complains about finding fglrx
[02:23] <cmt^^> so i put it in "DISABLED_MODULE
[02:23] <IdleOne> I remember there being a small applet that sat up on the taskbar that allowed a person to paste to he pastebin without having to start firefox. anybody remember the name?
[02:23] <cmt^^> (cause it wasn't there before)
[02:24] <cmt^^> do I need to restart X for the changes to take effect?
[02:24] <frogzoo> cmt^^: of course
[02:26] <cmt^^> frogzoo - ok let's see now
[02:27] <JJones0207> Hello
[02:27] <VigoFusion> Placid: Thats alotta switches and stuff, is the kernal in your Dapper and Edgy the required one?
[02:27] <cmt^^> Hmm
[02:28] <cmt^^> frogzoo - the system still finds fglrx device section
[02:28] <JJones0207> I am using Ubuntu alternate installer, When installing I come to a error of detect and mount CD-ROM what do I do in this situation?

[02:33] <JJones0207> memorex CD_RW
[02:33] <JJones0207> no dawkirst it cant mount the cd

[02:34] <VigoFusion> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=42032&highlight=cd-rom+-found <<that isnt yours,,but I am looking
[02:34] <JJones0207> So do you know what to do?
[02:34] <huiber1> dawkirst: looks like an error while accessing the cdrom with dma enabled
[02:34] <JJones0207> Ok
[02:34] <HydrageN> can't install the NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-9631-pkg1.run , whenever i type in  sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-*-pkg1.run in my console, keeps on telling me:  sh: Can't open NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-9631-pkg1.run " i have the file on my desktop"
[02:35] <huiber1> dawkirst: you could try to disable dma, but you will see the same error when you are trying to read a scratched cd
[02:35] <thomas> hey guys i'm having some trouble installing nvidia drivers, wondering if anybody could be of help
[02:35] <hikenboot> HydrageN did you do chmod a+rwx NVIDIA-Linux....run?
[02:36] <HydrageN> no ill try wait
[02:36] <dawkirst> huiber1: What is dma? And I had problems with my previous CD-Rom too -- it crashed Ubuntu. Do you think it has something to do with a faulty hardware piece, like IDE cable or something?
[02:36] <JJones0207> Yeah kinda Im not trying to do a dual boot im making the whole system ubuntu
[02:36] <hikenboot> is anyone in here able to help with a dynamic dns problem with bind9?
[02:36] <JJones0207> IT says You installation CD could not be mounted.
[02:36] <bobby> hi
[02:36] <huiber1> !dma | HydrageN
[02:36] <ubotu> HydrageN: dma is Direct Memory Access/Addressing. It makes hard disks & optical drives transfer data faster, and is almost always enabled in Ubuntu 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DMA
[02:37] <bobby> everybody's french here ?
[02:37] <Placid> VigoFusion: What do you mean?
[02:37] <VigoFusion> !nvidia
[02:37] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:37] <thomas> bobby: nope thats #ubuntu-fr
[02:37] <huiber1> HydrageN: sorry, it was for dawkirst...
[02:37] <dawkirst> ;)
[02:37] <bobby> thanks thomas
[02:37] <HydrageN> ok thank you ubotu, np huiberl :)
[02:38] <JJones0207> It just says Your installation cd could not be mounted this prob means that the cd rom was not in the drive and you can insert it now and try again but it is in the cd rom drive
[02:38] <VigoFusion> Placid: no idea CD detect?
[02:39] <dawkirst> Thanks huiber1. If it gives any more problems I'll try to disable it, but it was only sluggish while making an image of a DVD, so maybe that's just normal?
[02:39] <IdleOne> JJones0207:  try taking it out and putting it back in?
[02:39] <VigoFusion> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=42032&highlight=cd-rom+-found  <<<CD-RW or something detected,
[02:39] <JJones0207> tried and I made more copies of it

[02:39] <zainka> Hi... I need to compile a program, but Ubunto 6,06 cant find the make utility running Terminal. I guess I have to install teh make/compiler somehow, but is this package a part of the distro or do I need to find it online somewhere???
[02:40] <huiber1> dawkirst: But I got the same error once, bacause if incorrectly burned or scratched media.
[02:40] <IdleOne> zainka:  install build-essential
[02:40] <huiber1> !make
[02:40] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[02:40] <dawkirst> huiber1: Oh, ok. Thanks anyway.
[02:42] <JJones0207> I read that but it doesnt have a solution
[02:42] <zainka> Thanx
[02:43] <VigoFusion> Let me look at all the boards and see if I can find some info
[02:43] <zaan> Hi... I'd like to ask a question...
[02:43] <huiber1> JJones0207: do you have your cdrom drive connacted to anything other then hda/hdb/hdc/hdd ??
[02:43] <zaan> I'm trying to install ubuntu.
[02:43] <huiber1> !ask > zaan
[02:43] <zaan> it's my first time. I'm noober than noob
[02:43] <huiber1> zaan: no prob.
[02:43] <zaan> I downloaded 6.10
[02:43] <Placid> VigoFusion: CD detect? Sorry, i'm not understandig what you mean
[02:43] <zaan> twice from different servers
[02:44] <zaan> and burnt it with different software
[02:44] <JJones0207> what do you mean? it has a floppy drive in the computer and hdd thats about it
[02:44] <Morydd> I'm having some trouble with nat/firewall settings. The firewall machine can access the outside world, and everything behind the firewall can talk to each other, but can't access the outside world from the machines behind the firewall.
[02:44] <zaan> when I try to boot my computer from the live cd
[02:44] <zaan> there will be a screen with some text coming up
[02:44] <zaan> and I can boot into the live cd
[02:45] <zaan> but all of a sudden,
[02:45] <zaan> when still on the loading page
[02:45] <huiber1> JJones0207: I thought maybe an external usb cdrom, just huessing a bit around
[02:45] <zaan> (where you see the ubuntu logo and a status bar)
[02:45] <aleswy> hello
[02:45] <zaan> my screen goes black.
[02:45] <huiber1> *guessing
[02:45] <aleswy> one question
[02:45] <zaan> my computer is still doing something.
[02:46] <dawkirst> Am I correct if I say that DVDs are super sensitive to scratches, as opposed to CDs?
[02:46] <aleswy> this file /etc/inittab on ubuntu 6.10 no exist
[02:46] <zaan> it's an Acer aspire 5500
[02:46] <DanglyBits> i have a windowsxp(32bit) machine at work and I want to have a graphical connection to a server (amd64) at home...what are my best/easiest to setup options to allow this to work?
[02:46] <JJones0207> I thought about it but then I ran into a problem what am I going to use all I have is a 512 usb and 1 1gb mem stick
[02:46] <Tomcat_> dawkirst: I'd say they are both the same sensitive, but DVDs have a higher data to area ratio, so it will affect more.
[02:46] <zaan> a laptop with centrino platform
[02:46] <zaan> and ATI x700 m video card.
[02:47] <dawkirst> Tomcat_: Thanks.
[02:47] <cmt^^> zaan - I had the exact same problem
[02:48] <cmt^^> zaan - press alt+f2 when in the menu
[02:48] <zaan> aha
[02:48] <cmt^^> and edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:48] <huiber1> zaan: sound like you ati card is not used correctly, have you try to start with boot option "failsave", or tried to use vesa? (probably not)
[02:48] <scane__> what is the background for "aptitude install mc" not working on 6.10 amd64 ?
[02:48] <cmt^^> change driver="ati" to driver="vesa"
[02:48] <huiber1> zaan: ignore me, listen to cmt^^
[02:48] <cmt^^> heh
[02:48] <zaan> okay cmt and huiber1
[02:48] <cmt^^> there's a guide somewhere
[02:48] <zaan> let me try that right now
[02:48] <cmt^^> but that's the first step
[02:48] <KomiaPoika> how can i install xv 3.10a in ubuntu?
[02:48] <zaan> I'm working on 2 computers
[02:48] <huiber1> JJones0207: so your booting of usb atm?
[02:48] <cmt^^> then u need to install fglrx
[02:48] <zaan> what is the second step?
[02:49] <cmt^^> but changing driver to vesa will get you through the installation
[02:49] <cmt^^> did for me anyway
[02:49] <cmt^^> wow
[02:49] <cmt^^> i actually HELPED someone
[02:49] <cmt^^> big day for me
[02:49] <JJones0207> :( no
[02:50] <JJones0207> just off a CD-RW
[02:50] <zaan> small problem... when exactly do I need to press ALT F2?
[02:50] <cmt^^> well
[02:50] <huiber1> JJones0207: hmmm, so you're booting of the only cdrom available in the system?
[02:50] <huiber1> cmt^^: congrats :-)
[02:50] <JJones0207> yes
[02:50] <cmt^^> don't really remember, i think it might be when you're in the installation-boot-menu
[02:51] <huiber1> JJones0207: have you tried disabling "splash" and "quiet" at the boot prompt?
[02:51] <zaan> it's not doing anything for me right now :(
[02:51] <cmt^^> ok hang on
[02:51] <cmt^^> try changing the resolution of the setup by pressing F4 (I think, there are tips on the bottom of the screen)
[02:52] <JJones0207> uhhh its a older computer it doesnt even have it
[02:52] <cmt^^> to increase resolution, then you will see the error message that comes up
[02:52] <soundray> KomiaPoika: do you mean the image viewer?
[02:52] <zainka> ok Im back, no compilation done yet.  How do i install make utility, its not installed as far as I can see. Install build-essential only asks for destination file opperand using -T, tried one but source is not found
[02:52] <cmt^^> zaan - then try pressing alt+f2 when the error message pops up
[02:52] <cmt^^> i remember now, that's what I did
[02:53] <cmt^^> you'll get a x-server errormessage in a console-graphics box
[02:53] <huiber1> cmt^^: don't you mean "ctrl-alt-f2" ?
[02:53] <cmt^^> huiber1 - not outside of x
[02:53] <cmt^^> huiber1 - I did alt+f2
[02:53] <cmt^^> might be different on other systems
[02:53] <jrib> zainka: sudo apt-get install build-essential    should just install a package.  Can you be more specific about what asked you for a destination?  Pastebin the output please
[02:53] <zaan> that doesn't seem to do anything yet.
[02:53] <huiber1> JJones0207: does not have _what_?
[02:54] <Ropechoborra> !paste
[02:54] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[02:54] <cmt^^> zaan - tell me what you're looking at right now
[02:54] <JJones0207> :
[02:54] <JJones0207> :(
[02:54] <Jowi> JJones0207, I would recommend turning off ACPI if the cd boots but fails to detect at installation time (if I understood correctly)
[02:54] <zaan> and f4 gets me in "special boot parameters, overview"
[02:54] <jrib> zainka: by the way, what program are you compiling?
[02:54] <cmt^^> well, like I said, there are tips on the bottom of the screen
[02:54] <zaan> which, if I press it, only mentions 'Rescue' and a way to boot into a rescue mode
[02:54] <scane__> What is the preferred way to get midnight commander into 6.10 AMD64 ? Add debian sources? Download some package? Please help I cant find any answer that fits on the web.
[02:55] <cmt^^> zaan - what are the different F*-commands listed on the bottom of the screen?
[02:55] <Dylan`> hi, can someone help me?
[02:55] <Dylan`> How can i get 'aoss' ?
[02:55] <huiber1> scane__: for M.C. "apt-get install mc"
[02:55] <jrib> Dylan`: sudo apt-get install aoss
[02:55] <cmt^^> I know you're supposed to be able to change the resolution from VGA
[02:55] <Dylan`> doesnt work
[02:55] <zaan> they are not listed at the bottom, but rather in the middle of the screen.
[02:55] <scane__> huiber1, on 6.10 amd64 it does not know of "mc"
[02:55] <Dylan`> It says cant find the pacckets
[02:55] <jrib> !info aoss
[02:55] <ubotu> Package aoss does not exist in any distro I know
[02:55] <zaan> they range from f2 to f10
