[05:48] <joevandyk> erimar77: i've got 15k fps on a machine at work before... with a nvidia quadro 4500 or something
[05:49] <erimar77> are you just working towards 3d acceleration, or heading towards eyecandy land
[05:49] <joevandyk> erimar77: nah, i just wanted to check to make sure that basic 3D stuff worked

[05:50] <rockviech> hey guys
[05:50] <rockviech> does anyone know here how to get wireless networking working?
[05:50] <rockviech> i have an dell inspiron 1300
[05:50] <rockviech> using an dell wireless 1370 mini pci card
[05:50] <rockviech> i think its a broadcom one
[05:50] <Ghosty> rockviech: did you see if your card is supported with ubuntu ?
[05:51] <aravinds> _jason: thanks. i see linux (<IP_ADDRESS>) [restricted] , but its not clear how i download it- i don't see linux-source (i'm running breezy)
[05:51] <rockviech> dunno, i have now an cable plugged in
[05:51] <rockviech> how to see?
[05:51] <Ghosty> wirless ? with cable ?
[05:51] <_jason> aravinds: I don't know if downloading the dapper package to breezy is a good idea or not
[05:51] <Ghosty> wireless
[05:51] <joevandyk> How come there's two screensaver apps in Dapper?
[05:51] <spiritz> rockviech: do you see a network interface corresponding to your wifi card? (like doing ifconfig returns other than eth0 & lo?)
[05:51] <rockviech> no, now just a normal ethern cable
[05:51] <erimar77> rockviech, start here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=25683
[05:51] <rockviech> but i have build in wireless
[05:52] <rockviech> and thats wat i want tog et working
[05:52] <aravinds> _jason : i don't want to install it - only examine it
[05:52] <Ghosty> try typing iwconfig
[05:52] <rockviech> no wireless externsions
[05:52] <Ghosty> see if it sees a wifi card
[05:52] <rockviech> lo, eth0 and sit9

[05:53] <_jason> fmasi: chown/chmod
[05:53] <Ghosty> thats all i know, sorry cant help anymore on that matter, im new to linux myself, but i know that it took me 3 wifi cards to get one that worked with linux and then it didnt work in ubuntu
[05:53] <rockviech> lol
[05:53] <Ghosty> it worked with knoppix though, or unless i had something setup worng
[05:54] <rockviech> hm it has to work
[05:54] <rockviech> instead i have to install windows again -.-
[05:54] <_jason> fmasi: if you only want directories do something like cd /var/www, find . -type d -exec chmod 755 '{}' \;
[05:54] <papaubuntu> hi all

[06:09] <Zoroaster> what is the name of the file for configurig the eth0?
[06:10] <Loafer32> erimar77: will Ubuntu work fine on a partition of the same HD having win2k as master on a partition?
[06:10] <JackHanna> ok.. I'm running dapper right now.. what's so much better about dapper for a kiosk?

[06:10] <Frogzoo> JackHanna: various lock down features in the new gnome

[06:11] <mivecz> how i  update  ubutntu  5.10  to  ubuntu dapper drake
[06:11] <mivecz> i have the cd
[06:11] <mivecz> dapper  drake 4
[06:11] <Jimmey__> JackJanna, just wondered if it has somethings missing, maybe it was just designed for command line tasks ( or serially controlled? )
[06:12] <Zoroaster> Ghosty, yes the IP, the gateway
[06:12] <Ghosty> yes erimar77
[06:12] <erimar77> ghosty, download the source from here  http://www.metasploit.com/projects/Framework/downloads.html
[06:12] <Jimmey__> *JackHanna
[06:12] <Ghosty> Zoroaster: use ifconfig
[06:12] <Zoroaster> Ghosty,  I guess I use the ifconfig command
[06:12] <Zoroaster> ok
[06:12] <erimar77> then... "Installing the Framework is as easy as extracting the tarball, changing into the created directory, and executing your preferred user interface. "
[06:12] <Ghosty> like this,
[06:12] <Zoroaster> Ghosty, just remembered, thank you
[06:12] <Ghosty> ifconfig eth0 "IP you want" netmask <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:12] <Ghosty> like that
[06:13] <erimar77> ghosty, the install guidelines are here.. it's really short  http://www.metasploit.com/projects/Framework/docs/userguide/node4.html
[06:13] <Ghosty> thanks erimar77
[06:14] <rockviech> oh man -.-

[06:15] <rockviech> lol
[06:15] <rockviech> that ruls
[06:16] <Frogzoo> mivecz: I think you just insert the dapper install disk, autodetects & starts upgrade itself
[06:16] <Joe_Dirt> anyone else tried to get stepmania to work on linux?
[06:16] <mivecz> is not   autodetects
[06:16] <Frogzoo> mivecz: worked for breezy - oh well
[06:17] <kleinlappies> is there a program for ubnutu (linux) thats like Filemaker pro?
[06:17] <rockviech> oh man -.-
[06:17] <rockviech> any other solution to install a .exe
[06:17] <rockviech> well
[06:18] <rockviech> its an driver
[06:18] <Pupeno> kleinlappies: what does it do ?
[06:18] <rockviech> and i need an file of this .exe driver for windows
[06:18] <rockviech> any other way instead of wine
[06:18] <arrick> ok im back
[06:18] <rockviech> or does someone have the dell wireless 1370 .inf file here?
[06:18] <rockviech> to get broadcom working?
[06:18] <mivecz> Frogzoo joking me:P
[06:18] <erimar77> klien, what are you using the filemaker database for?
[06:18] <mivecz> dappper :)
[06:19] <kleinlappies> its a relational database program that is veary veary easy to use
[06:19] <erimar77> i know what it is, what are you using it for
[06:19] <_jason> ubotu: tell rockviech about wireless
[06:19] <_jason> rockviech: check that
[06:19] <kleinlappies> Pupeno its a relational database program that is veary veary easy to use

[06:19] <Bambino1> Guys, i am trying to install my internet now to my ubuntu laptop, however its not detecting it. Its a normal cable with DHCP... anyone know why? I activated it as well, but nothing happensa
[06:19] <Ghosty> rockviech: are they avalible from dells site ?
[06:19] <erimar77> are you partial to graphical front ends
[06:19] <rockviech> well only .exe files
[06:19] <Pupeno> kleinlappies: tried openoffice-base ? kexi ?
[06:19] <molinero> !windows
[06:19] <ubotu> molinero: Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:19] <forall> How can i configure a Belkin wlan card ???
[06:19] <aka-fats> hi all
[06:19] <rockviech> only .exe file ghosty
[06:19] <juztin> when i try to play a video in mplayer, i get this error : New_Face failed.  Maybe the font path is wrong.  Pleas supply the text font file (~/.mplayer/subfont.ttf)....what should i do?
[06:20] <anto9us> kleinlappies, have you tried openoffice.org base?
[06:20] <aka-fats> any1 using Dapper on a laptop
[06:20] <_jason> juztin: install mplayer-fonts package
[06:20] <juztin> _jason, thx :)
[06:20] <erimar77> yeah klien, openoffice base.. or if you just want to use a read database, look into mysql and a graphical front end like phpmyadmin
[06:20] <kleinlappies> Pupeno openoffice-base is like access, filemaker is prob the best relational db around (for ease of use)
[06:20] <nutshell42> kleinlappies: kexi does something like that, the kompany had another tool (rekall I think), but nothing that's as powerful or stable as filemaker
[06:20] <Bambino1> !ping
[06:20] <ubotu> somebody said ping was a signal sent out to test the connection between two computers.
[06:21] <LinuxJones> Has anybody had any luck with the Istanbul Desktop Session Recorder ?
[06:21] <kleinlappies> nutshell42 thanks i will go and have a look
[06:21] <conmiweb> how can i convert ntfs to fat 32 without lost data?
[06:21] <rockviech> ghosty, how to get the .inf file out of the .exe?
[06:21] <Ghosty> rockviech: try doing a search for getting your wirless card running in linux
[06:21] <_jason> LinuxJones: I think i managed to record 2 seconds.  I was trying at 1600x1200, I should have reduced the res to something like 800x600
[06:21] <rockviech> i did
[06:21] <rockviech> ghosty
[06:21] <thebigearl> conmiweb that does not work...
[06:21] <rockviech> there is always an .inf file
[06:21] <LinuxJones> conmiweb: back up to dvd then format the partition
[06:21] <rockviech> but i only have an exe
[06:22] <anto9us> kleinlappies, rekall is in the repositories but requires a database server, it's only a front end
[06:22] <conmiweb> :o y saw that with partition magic it works
[06:22] <LinuxJones> _jason: playback is like 10 times faster than what I recorded even at 30 fps
[06:22] <Ghosty> see if you had dual boot you would be ok now
[06:22] <Pupeno> kleinlappies, nutshell42: yes, rekall. Both kexi and rekall connect to a real RDB: mysql, postgresql, etc
[06:22] <aka-fats> after the last update in dapper i lost my mouse on the laptop, i had to plug in a usb mouse
[06:22] <Ghosty> can you still run windows ?
[06:22] <_jason> LinuxJones: yeah it didn't work very well for me
[06:22] <thebigearl> conmiweb but this is a high risk... you probably lose data
[06:23] <conmiweb> ok..
[06:23] <aka-fats> do you guys know what update i would have to downgrade to get it back ?
[06:23] <conmiweb> thanks
[06:23] <rockviech> ghosty, i dont wanna install windows
[06:23] <kleinlappies> Pupeno anto9us nutshell42 thanks you guys?
[06:23] <rockviech> because then i had to resize partition
[06:23] <rockviech> format and so on
[06:23] <thebigearl> conmiweb yre welcome
[06:23] <brkthechains> im having a noob problem with linux, anybody help me?
[06:23] <LinuxJones> _jason: well there's wink but it saves in flash which sucks even worse
[06:23] <_jason> !justask
[06:23] <ubotu> Ask your question and we'll try to answer it.
[06:23] <BrigadierFrog> what version of gcc is dapper using?
[06:23] <Zoroaster> how do I add a default gateway from the command line
[06:23] <conmiweb> another thing, how can i connect by vnc form an ubuntu to antother ubuntu?, with graphical windows?
[06:23] <Zoroaster> do I use ifonfig or route?
[06:23] <_jason> LinuxJones: I've been meaning to try xvidcap, but haven't gotten around to compiling it

[06:26] <rockviech> jason?
[06:26] <rockviech> do you have the .inf file for the wireless card

[06:31] <fmasi> how can i know what is the vertion of bind in use in a non debian-base system ?
[06:31] <_jason> rockviech: did you try unzipping the exe?  I think the dell stuff is just a self-extracting aarchive

[06:34] <anto9us> mabus, that's not very helpful
[06:34] <Vux> Seems that ubuntu irc-channel is suffering some bad noob-question flow :E
[06:34] <_jason> brkthechains: umm I've never seen a blue screen, have you tried just rebooting?

[06:35] <Bambino1> Is it really that hard to get a normal internet connection to ubuntu? I plugged in the cable but nothing happens!!
[06:35] <Jimmey__> I've got 64GB of RAM, but Ubuntu only recognises 980MB.
[06:35] <diffuser78> hiroshi: i tried that but for certain website the music doesnt play

[06:36] <mabus> anto9us: sshd is the server, ssh is the client
[06:36] <rambo3> i dont know it that supported  buy default
[06:36] <anto9us> mabus, ssh is the server and client
[06:36] <diffuser78> goto www.raaga.com/hindi

[06:36] <diffuser78> and try playing any music, my ubuntu doesnt play
[06:36] <arrick> rambo3, how did you get 64gb of ram?
[06:36] <rambo3> i have only 1 gig ram
[06:37] <juztin> _jason, it's already set to alsa
[06:37] <YogSothoth> Jimmey__: lend me 1 or 2 gig please ;)
[06:37] <_jason> juztin: hrmm
[06:37] <mamo> nose hablar en ingles soy una chica
[06:37] <Jimmey__> It's a server
[06:37] <Zoroaster> how do I edit from the command line, without being able to use gedit, because gnome is not installed
[06:37] <Jimmey__> It's got 3x3.4GHz ( 2x2MB L2 Cache )
[06:38] <chanakya> Zoroaster: use sudo vi
[06:38] <Jimmey__> Zoroaster, nano
[06:38] <ironfroggy> so i downloaded one of those fancy isntall CDs, but it complains then that the CD has no RELEASE file and the installation halts. am i doing something wrong?
[06:38] <Jimmey__> Yeah, or that
[06:38] <Joe_Dirt> ./stepmania: error while loading shared libraries: libmad.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[06:38] <anto9us> Zoroaster, I normally use vi but you may find pico easier
[06:38] <_jason> juztin: what are your settings in the audio panel?
[06:38] <Ghosty> nano is easy too
[06:38] <chanakya> vi rocks
[06:38] <juztin> _jason, i switched it to OSS and it works now :S
[06:39] <aaronshaf> Where can I get a list of open DNS server IP's?
[06:39] <_jason> juztin: you just have to figure out what settings differ from mplayer to gmplayer, maybe ~/.mplayer/gui.conf will help.  The guys at #mplayer can probably help you better than I can
[06:39] <gnomefreak> brb
[06:40] <cake> wow
[06:40] <cake> thats alot of users
[06:40] <juztin> _jason, ok thanks :)
[06:40] <ironfroggy> is there some way i could still get this installation to run?
[06:40] <cake> just a quick question, im using dapper, with xgl/compiz and i wanted to try the new gaim 2.0beta3
[06:41] <cake> i found someones debs on the forum and installed it
[06:41] <cake> everything is working
[06:41] <cake> but synaptic is telling me that the gaim package is broken
[06:41] <cake> any hints on how to make it ignore the gaim package?
[06:41] <_jason> cake: did you remove the old gaim first?
[06:41] <aaronshaf> Where can I get a list of open DNS server IP's? :-)
[06:41] <Bambino1> Someone who can help me set up a internet connection please to my laptop using UBUNTU 64bit?
[06:41] <cake> _jason: nope, then it removes ubuntu-desktop and brakes xgl/compiz :s
[06:42] <martin_> HOLA A TODOS BUEN DIA
[06:42] <cake> _jason: so i just did dpkg -i newgaimpackage.deb
[06:42] <cake> and it seems like it just overwrote it
[06:42] <_jason> cake: you should talk to the packager
[06:42] <martin_> ALGUIEN SABE COMO PUEDO MANDAR MENSAJES  DE UNA MAQUINA LINUX A UNA CON WINDOWS

[06:43] <CNAP> anto9us: i appreciate the link, that site has a sh*t load of information for what i was looking for
[06:43] <cake> i did add the stuff i found there though, but doesnt seem to be working
[06:43] <gnomefreak> cake: for gaim beta to work you have to get rid of old gaim first

[06:47] <swoop> ooook thanks
[06:47] <Frogzoo> !tell swoop about kde
[06:47] <gnomefreak> cake: you can try pinning the new gaim im thinking that should stop all updates for gaim in general
[06:47] <swoop> _jason,  and, will I have to re-install all the drivers?
[06:47] <Zoroaster> how do you make scrolling output from the command line pause at each screenfull?
[06:47] <Lhademmor> BTW what is most linux-n00b friendly? GNOME or KDE?
[06:47] <cake> gnomefreak: sounds like a plan
[06:47] <erez> !samba
[06:47] <ubotu> somebody said samba was https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[06:47] <gnomefreak> Zoroaster: | less

[06:49] <ironfroggy> ok i got my installation to continue, but it just dropped me into a command line. what am i supposed to do from here?
[06:49] <_jason> anyone know if nforce2 drivers are different than the !nvidia stuff?
[06:49] <gnomefreak> they are same _jason
[06:49] <cake> ah yeah, btw, since im first here, where the hell did reboot and shutdown icons go in the logout box?

[06:50] <swoop> gnomefreak,  hmm ok... thanks ;)

[06:50] <KNY[linux] > cake, I had that happen after I restarted X, but not after I rebooted the system
[06:50] <cake> KNY[linux] : nah, its been that way for a long time now
[06:50] <rockviech> but it doesnt work

[06:50] <swoop> i'll install kde first... brb! ;)
[06:50] <cake> KNY[linux] : i think it was that way after installing xgl
[06:50] <_jason> rockviech: have you read through this http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=120383  ?
[06:50] <gnomefreak> cake: restarting X will not give you shutdown options untill you reboot
[06:50] <cake> both hibernate and sleep works though if i run the scripts for it
[06:51] <cake> gnomefreak: ive rebooted a dozen times after this weirdness started :)
[06:51] <cake> ive had xgl running for a few weeks now

[06:53] <Ghosty> rockviech: dont know what else to tell you know then, im new to linux too. you might want to get a card that is compatiable with linux
[06:53] <_jason> rockviech: you tried the wiki first right?

[06:56] <mabus> How come I can't copy a directory? When I try 'sudo cp www /var' it says omitting directory 'www'.... I had backed up my website on a usb drive before reinstalling ubuntu.
[06:56] <ironfroggy> gnomefreak: it doesnt :-/
[06:57] <Dyna-Work> isnt it var/www?
[06:57] <Dyna-Work> not www/var?
[06:57] <gnomefreak> ironfroggy: you are booting from cd in bios right?
[06:57] <_jason> mabus: cp -R
[06:57] <ironfroggy> yes
[06:57] <mabus> Dyna-Work: Yes...but 'www' is a folder on my usb drive, /var is where www should be located
[06:57] <mabus> _jason: thanks
[06:58] <cowboyfeng> Hello All... FireFox is asking for the java runtime plugin... Isn't that installed by default in ubuntu?
[06:58] <_jason> cowboyfeng: no
[06:58] <_jason> ubotu: tell cowboyfeng about java
[06:58] <Dyna-Work> ok, so try putting -v -r after cp
[06:58] <gnomefreak> ironfroggy: ok try to reboot and when you see the ubuntu page hit enter
[06:58] <chanakya> cowboyfeng: no
[06:58] <cowboyfeng> what about java
[06:58] <ironfroggy> in the detect and mount step, it says something failed, but not what. i tried running that step again, which is when it tells me "you're going to ASH now" and then im lost.
[06:58] <ironfroggy> gnomefreak: done that three times now.
[06:58] <_jason> cowboyfeng: java is not installed
[06:59] <chanakya> cowboyfeng: download from sun.com
[06:59] <_jason> well sun java isn't
[06:59] <cowboyfeng> ok
[06:59] <gnomefreak> ok ironfroggy the errors are normally good to have first
[06:59] <cowboyfeng> ahh...
[06:59] <anto9us> ubotu, tell cowboyfeng about restricted formats
[06:59] <_jason> cowboyfeng: read the link in your /msg
[06:59] <ironfroggy> wtf, now i think the actual install is loading.
[06:59] <gnomefreak> ironfroggy: that is telling me either somethingis weird or messed up with hardware or its a bad md5sum
[06:59] <ItOX> When installing ubuntu on a certain language, can I later on change the language for the whole system?
[06:59] <colinpwns> question: im trying to download a song and it always says TOTEM cannot start
[07:00] <ironfroggy> my cdrom is a little funky. its behaving now.
[07:00] <_jason> cowboyfeng: that's not a question :)  Try mplayer
[07:00] <cowboyfeng> Should I use the rpm of the self extractor? Can I even use rpms?
[07:00] <gnomefreak> ironfroggy: theres your issue
[07:00] <DarkSa|nt> hi, i got a problem in installing ubuntu on my intel p4...The installer doesn't recognize any phisical/logical drive to install in
[07:00] <rambo3> ItOX, sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
[07:00] <chanakya> ItOX: yes u can
[07:00] <_jason> cowboyfeng: read your /msg if you don't want to break your box
[07:00] <ironfroggy> ga'damit, DHCP is broken still
[07:00] <diffuser78> why UBUNTU fonts are so big and not as nice as Suse or windows
[07:00] <ItOX> chanakya: even on a offline computer, just using the install cd?
[07:00] <chanakya> ItOX: just change the language when logging to gdm
[07:00] <kevor> diffuser78: change resolution ;)
[07:00] <diffuser78> I use ERIC editor for python and its not good for eyes
[07:00] <ItOX> rambo3: thank you
[07:00] <gnomefreak> ironfroggy: fix it when the install is done if it finishes
[07:00] <polpak> diffuser78, uhh.. you can change your font settings or resolution
[07:01] <colinpwns> Question: My Rhytmbox always has a ! next to songs and it wont play them
[07:01] <diffuser78> is it...can u tell exactly what settings i need to change
[07:01] <chanakya> ItOX: yes , if the lang-pack is installed
[07:01] <polpak> diffuser78, are you wanting to change your font, or your resolution?
[07:01] <Lhademmor> Question: Hi. I hear people telling me that ubuntu is a good distro for people who are new to Linux. Is that true?
[07:01] <diffuser78> fonts
[07:01] <polpak> Lhademmor, yes
[07:01] <chanakya> Lhademmor: yes it is
[07:01] <ironfroggy> gnomefreak: no, its not just broken, its broken very very oddly. i was installing ubuntu hoping it was some strange software issue, but it looks like its hardware.
[07:01] <diffuser78> 1280x800 resolution
[07:02] <ironfroggy> somehow, my NIC isnt compatible with my router.
[07:02] <diffuser78> fonts standard gnome
[07:02] <polpak> diff System->Preferences->Font
[07:02] <ItOX> chanakya: ok and I can install the lang-pack from the cd after Installation right?  and how do I do that.
[07:02] <Lhademmor> Thx. I'll try it out.
[07:02] <polpak> Lhademmor, there's also a Live CD you can try w/o installing anything
[07:02] <chanakya> ItOX: just sudo apt-get install lang-pack
[07:02] <colinpwns> does anybody know why mp3s arent playing even though i downloaded the right pack?
[07:02] <chanakya> ItOX: and it will opt for the cd
[07:02] <ItOX> chanakya: its on a offline computer
[07:02] <polpak> Lhademmor, and if you have any questions or problems feel free to stop by
[07:02] <Lhademmor> Thank you. Will do. :)
[07:03] <ironfroggy> but i have never in my entire life heard of that every happening
[07:03] <chanakya> ItOX: doesn`t ,make a difference it will still asked for the installation cd
[07:03] <gnomefreak> colinpwns: i thought there were like 5 packages to install for mp3s
[07:03] <Lhademmor> How about drivers and stuff?
[07:03] <chanakya> ItOX: only
[07:03] <ItOX> chanakya: ok good
[07:03] <crelo> ola
[07:03] <polpak> Lhademmor, for what hardware?
[07:03] <Khamael> can I use ubuntu to sync documents to and from a palmOS device?
[07:03] <colinpwns> gnomefreak: not sure, i ran the one in the unbuntu faq
[07:03] <Lhademmor> A Wireless Network PCI-card
[07:03] <gnomefreak> !ubuntuguide
[07:03] <ubotu> somebody said ubuntuguide was out of date, reported to break a lot and generally a bad source for information. Use help.ubuntu.com or wiki.ubuntu.com instead
[07:03] <polpak> Khamael, I believe so.. There's a couple of "pilot" programs
[07:04] <ItOX> chanakya: and what about sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales?
[07:04] <ironfroggy> has anyone here every seen a case where a certain combination of a router and a NIC wont work, but both work with all others?
[07:04] <Khamael> polpak, tried to use gnome-pilot, but it won`t work
[07:04] <rambo3> ItOX, use that , else if you get into recovery you ll have problems
[07:04] <anto9us> Khamael, this may help https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EasyPalmDeviceSetup
[07:04] <Lhademmor> I haven't bought one yet but I am choosing between cards from OvisLink, Hawking, 3Com and ZyXEL. Any suggestions?
[07:04] <mabus> is there a reasonable alternative to easyubuntu? This is a fresh install and I'm not looking forward to the long time of getting java/flash/mp3/w32codecs to work.
[07:04] <Dyna-Work> maybe ironfroggy, anything is possible
[07:04] <chanakya> ItOX: why u wanna do that
[07:04] <Khamael> anto9us, thanks
[07:05] <chanakya> ItOX: simple apt-get would work
[07:05] <ItOX> chanakya: because rambo3 said so
[07:05] <ItOX> chanakya : ok
[07:05] <_jason> mabus: what's wrong with easyubuntu??
[07:05] <chanakya> ItOX: and dpkg-recounfigure will too ;)
[07:05] <mabus> I thought easyubuntu messed stuff up?
[07:05] <polpak> ironfroggy, only time I've seen that is when the switch has a certain rate (say 1000 Mbps) set to force or something and the card doesn't allow it
[07:05] <anto9us> mabus, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats, does't take too long
[07:05] <polpak> mabus, no, that's automatix
[07:05] <ironfroggy> its like data can get out of the NIC and to the router, but not the other way around. doesnt matter what ports i use or anything.
[07:05] <_jason> mabus: if you enable repos like seveas and PLF it takes 4 commands
[07:05] <mabus> _jason: I'm familiar with the website. It does take a while.
[07:05] <ItOX> chanakya: heh, dont make me more confused than I already am lol
[07:05] <colinpwns> gnomefreak, i used sudo apt-get install  gstreamer0.8-mad and enabled the universe repositories
[07:06] <chanakya> ItOX: it`s all about options
[07:06] <gnomefreak> !mp3
[07:06] <ubotu> methinks mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[07:06] <chanakya> ItOX: for starters use apt-get
[07:06] <_jason> mabus: actually one command if you just list the four packages
[07:06] <rockviech> _jason, didnt work
[07:06] <colinpwns> !mp3
[07:06] <rockviech> ndiswrapper -l tells me that  driver and hardware is present
[07:06] <rockviech> but there is no wlan 0
[07:06] <_jason> rockviech: :/  don't use wireless myself so can't really help you
[07:06] <ItOX> chanakya: and how do I get from there?  Will it ask which language I wanna install ?
[07:06] <cowboyfeng> where does ubuntu put the packages that I download for install?
[07:06] <gnomefreak> colinpwns: hold on im running slow here
[07:07] <mabus> How do you close a window in irssi?
[07:07] <_jason> cowboyfeng: how did you download them?
[07:07] <mabus> Like a PM rather than a chan.
[07:07] <cowboyfeng> yes
[07:07] <rambo3> ./quit
[07:07] <_jason> mabus: /window close or /wc for short
[07:07] <colinpwns> gnomefreak: no problem
[07:07] <gnomefreak> mabus: ctrl+c or P
[07:07] <mabus> gnomefreak: ctrl+c? :P I think now.
[07:07] <mabus> not*
[07:07] <mabus> _jason: Thanks.
[07:08] <anto9us> rockviech, type sudo ifconfig wlan0 essid <essid>
[07:08] <yomisma> hola a todos
[07:08] <gnomefreak> mabus: close i thoughtit said change :(
[07:08] <Zoroaster> I installed Ubuntu 5.10, server mode, and I went in and uncommented all repositories in sources.list, then I sudo apt-get install and it fails telling me couldn't stat resources
[07:08] <gnomefreak> colinpwns: are you on that page?
[07:08] <polpak> Zoroaster, you need to apt-get update first
[07:08] <chanakya> ItOX: are u comfortable with command line , if u are then use apt-get or dpkg-configure , and if u are not simply open synaptic  --> search > locale <language name> and install and the locale will be configured
[07:08] <CNAP> is there a way to get hardware specs in linux?
[07:08] <colinpwns> !mp3
[07:08] <LazyAngel> what do you set /boot to in fstab if you don't want to mount it when booting? "noauto" ?
[07:08] <ubotu> mp3 is, like, totally, a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[07:08] <_jason> Zoroaster: whenever you edit /etc/apt/sources.list you need to apt-get update
[07:08] <mabus> gnomefreak: No frowns, tis okay.
[07:08] <ItOX> chanakya: ok !
[07:09] <colinpwns> gnomefreak: im sorry, which page?
[07:09] <_jason> LazyAngel: yeah
[07:09] <gnomefreak> colinpwns: on that site if you look down to where it says other non-free formats
[07:09] <chanakya> ItOX: and when u wanna change locale afterwards just change locale form gdm (login screen)
[07:09] <gnomefreak> colinpwns: its only one page
[07:09] <colinpwns> gnomefreak: yup, im there
[07:10] <gnomefreak> colinpwns: your on breezy right?
[07:10] <LazyAngel> _jason: thanks.
[07:10] <ItOX> chanakya: ok.. btw, is those languages that supported in gnome, supported on the other window managers as well e.g. XFCE ?
[07:10] <gnomefreak> ItOX: should be yes
[07:11] <gnomefreak> colinpwns: are you on ubuntu 5.10?
[07:11] <colinpwns> gnomefreak: breezy
[07:11] <chanakya> ItOX: it depens on which language u speak, it`s not always supported.
[07:11] <Zoroaster> actually I typed wrong, I am running apt-get update first
[07:11] <chanakya> ItOX: *depends
[07:11] <Zoroaster> I am running sudo apt-get update
[07:11] <Zoroaster> I get the message
[07:11] <gnomefreak> colinpwns: ok good  than install those 3 other things
[07:12] <Zoroaster> couldnt stat source package list
[07:12] <Zoroaster> I can ping www.google.com from that server so I know it is not connectivity issue
[07:13] <_jason> Zoroaster: can you put your /etc/apt/sources.list on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ please>?
[07:13] <dgl> Hi people, I got some problems with apt dependencies: I need to install libreadline4.35.18, but, to do this I need to install readline-common. Readline-common conflicts with libreadline4.35.15. There's a lot of packages that depends on libreadline4.25.-15. How I do?
[07:13] <rockviech> hm
[07:13] <rockviech> _jason=
[07:13] <rockviech> ?
[07:13] <Zoroaster> _jason, will do
[07:14] <Khamael> hello, me again. the fix I got a minute ago didn`t work
[07:14] <colinpwns> gnomefreak: do i need to restart now? I still get an ! while trying to play it
[07:15] <_jason> Khamael: you probably want to refresh the room as to what it is you are trying to do
[07:15] <gnomefreak> colinpwns: what do you mean you get a ! when trying to play?
[07:15] <valentinos> colinpwns, do you have mp3 support ?
[07:15] <colinpwns> gnomefreak: yes, they were working yesterday
[07:15] <Khamael> _jason, of course. I`m trying to get a palmOS device to work
[07:16] <gnomefreak> colinpwns: what player are you using?
[07:16] <colinpwns> gnomefreak: if i run them in rhythmbox now, next to their name in the playlist instead of a speaker emitting sound i see an exclamation
[07:16] <colinpwns> gnomefreak: rhythmbox
[07:16] <cowboyfeng> Is there any real advantage to using a remote swap
[07:16] <gnomefreak> colinpwns: did you try another player by chance?
[07:17] <colinpwns> gnomefreak: yes, im getting error cannot open resource for writing
[07:17] <gnomefreak> colinpwns: is this a mp3 that you put on cd?
[07:18] <colinpwns> gnomefreak: nope, its right on my desktop, something i mixed myself
[07:18] <Zoroaster> _jason, I'm running i vmware, have to figure out how to capture screen output first
[07:18] <gnomefreak> :( colinpwns did you do a rythem-box update before it stopped working?
[07:18] <_jason> Zoroaster: so you can't use the internet in vmware?
[07:19] <colinpwns> gnomefreak: its possible, i had several updates install last night automatically
[07:19] <syndicate> does anybody know where to set HISTSIZE for bash?
[07:19] <gnomefreak> colinpwns: have you rebooted since updates?
[07:20] <colinpwns> gnomefreak: yes...actually i notice now if i go into sound settings and try to play system sounds i hear nothing as well
[07:20] <Nuevo> #spain
[07:20] <gnomefreak> ahhhhhhhhhh
[07:20] <gnomefreak> colinpwns: that would be why you have 0 sound output huh?
[07:21] <munzir> Hi,  I want to connect my laptop to a router with a wpa psk key but it didn't work. ubuntu network settings only contains a place to put a wep key
[07:21] <Jhair> syndicate: .bashrc
[07:21] <colinpwns> gnomefreak =( hehe
[07:21] <Zoroaster> Zoroaster, I can, but the server I'm having trouble with does not have gnome installed, it is only command line
[07:21] <gnomefreak> anyone in here good with sound issues that can help colinpwns out for a bit?
[07:21] <Zoroaster> _jason, , I can, but the server I'm having trouble with does not have gnome installed, it is only command line
[07:21] <cowboyfeng> How do I start a root accessed file manager
[07:22] <anto9us> cowboyfeng, sudo nautilus, be careful :)
[07:22] <cowboyfeng> thanks
[07:22] <_jason> Zoroaster: I see, can you just transfer the file through ssh to your other computer maybe?  I think there is a pastebin script too but I don't know where it is
[07:22] <gnomefreak> cowboyfeng: gksudo nautilus
[07:23] <cowboyfeng> what is the diference between gksudo and sudo
[07:23] <Zoroaster> _jason, will try
[07:23] <joevandyk> Can anyone explain why evolution doesn't put a new mail notification icon in the notification area when a new message comes?
[07:23] <_jason> Zoroaster: or if you want I can just #flood and you can do a /exec cat /etc/apt/sources.list in irssi
[07:23] <anto9us> cowboyfeng, sudo prompts in terminal, gksudo in gnome
[07:23] <joevandyk> that's like, the most irrating thing evar
[07:23] <_jason> Zoroaster: /exec -out, I guess it would be
[07:23] <redguy> can anyone tell me what sets my eth0 to <IP_ADDRESS> network even though I have a eth0 inet static section in my /etc/network/interfaces?
[07:25] <anto9us> redguy, you've done ifdown and ifup ?
[07:25] <Zoroaster> _jason, you lost me now
[07:25] <Zoroaster> let me try the ssh thing
[07:25] <rapha> Hi all!
[07:25] <_jason> Zoroaster: are you using irssi in vmware?
[07:25] <_jason> ok sure
[07:25] <redguy> anto9us: I am thinking that something related to hotplug might be doing that
[07:26] <rapha> I got a new screen. How can you get a higher frequency for it (75 instead of 60Hz for example) in Ubuntu?
[07:26] <colinpwns> Can anybody assist me with a sound issue?
[07:26] <mabus> !ask
[07:27] <Khamael> do I have to reboot for udev rules to apply?
[07:27] <Zoroaster> _jason, don't know what irssi is
[07:27] <christmas> hy all
[07:27] <_jason> Zoroaster: it's a terminal based irc client you could use.  Try the ssh thing first and if you can't get it, I'll give you a quick tutorial
[07:27] <anto9us> redguy, I don't know, have you configured in gnome?
[07:28] <rockviech> gey
[07:28] <rockviech> hey

[07:31] <rockviech> once they werent, it gave me that the driver and hardware isnt present
[07:31] <rockviech> now it is
[07:31] <colinpwns> Does anybody know how to fix the error COULDNOT OPEN SOURCE FOR WRITING for mp3/wav files?

[07:31] <rockviech> have to search for it

[07:42] <Dyna-Work> juztin is it spinning?
[07:42] <Frogzoo> juztin: kill all procs accessing teh dvd first - fuser -c /dev/XXX
[07:42] <mabus> What's the irssi equivalent of /dns for xchat?
[07:42] <juztin> _jason, that did it thanks

[07:43] <hobrik> the master volume control not working, is this a common problem? i read some article fast last night, just wonderin...
[07:43] <Frogzoo> anyone noticed how much quicker ie6 runs under wine than windows?
[07:43] <_jason> Frogzoo: that's a feature of course
[07:43] <rapha> DAMN! That screen makes 2048 by 1536 at 75Hz ... that's a beast! Thanks a lot again syndicate!
[07:44] <anto9us> Frogzoo, less bloated environment I guess
[07:44] <jadaz87> hello i was wondering what is the xterm command for the volume-control
[07:44] <syndicate> cool
[07:44] <_jason> jadaz87: alsamixer
[07:44] <Frogzoo> anto9us: well no registry for starters
[07:44] <mabus> What's the irssi equivalent of /dns for xchat? To look up somebody's host.
[07:44] <rapha> And I got it for 20 bucks... that's incredible.
[07:45] <_jason> mabus: /whois ?
[07:45] <hobrik> transparent windows, is this an easy thing in ubuntu??
[07:46] <anto9us> Frogzoo, I don't run any windows stuff, although I've had to configure it for others, I thought it had a registry though
[07:46] <celerex> i have a program that can't find a shared library, the file physically exists where my other libraries are stored. How do i got about rebuilding the 'library cache'?
[07:46] <Frogzoo> anto9us: it does, but not with a 1/10th of what usually winds up in there
[07:46] <jadaz87> _jason thank you :)
[07:46] <anto9us> Frogzoo, aah :)
[07:47] <jadaz87> _jason what about open-office?
[07:47] <mabus> _jason: but it resolves hostnames to IPs
[07:47] <Frogzoo> celerex: sudo ldconfig lib_path
[07:47] <_jason> mabus: oh
[07:47] <celerex> thanks
[07:48] <mabus> /dns that is, not /whois
[07:49] <faul> hi everybody, i'm facing an install problem : i want/need to install ubuntu from a local network iso , that is to say : 1) booting from a local machine 2) using iso files for the installation (no cd, no floppy, no internet ..)
[07:49] <faul> has anyone ever done that ? thanks
[07:49] <_jason> mabus: http://irssi.org/scripts/
[07:49] <_jason> mabus: there is a dns.pl there
[07:49] <caglar_> how do you find out with how much dpi your monitor runs on linux/X
[07:49] <caglar_> ?
[07:50] <faul> so far i've managed to boot over the network but the installation process needs asks for internet access to download the packages .. thanks for any advice/linnk
[07:50] <anto9us> faul, have you read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation/LocalNet ?
[07:51] <harisund> arrick you around? I think the acpi fix is more or less what i was looking for. Thanks
[07:51] <bliss1_> hello
[07:51] <faul> anto9us: yes, thanks but it doesn't seem to work for me ... the boot process doesn't even  work this way (well for me..)
[07:52] <faul> i must be doing somethnig wrong ...
[07:52] <anto9us> faul, there's another howto at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation/Netboot
[07:52] <aravinds> i want kernel 2.6.15 on breezy. i got the kernel source for 2.6.15 from dapper. i did cd /usr/src/linux-2.6.15; cat debian/config/i386/config debian/config/i386/config.server > .config; make menuconfig
[07:52] <aravinds> is  there anything i should worry about?
[07:52] <bliss1_> hello roryy how are things
[07:53] <Khamael> I got my palmOS device to sync, but it only syncs backup in .pdc and .pdb files.. how do I get it to sync .doc files and the like?
[07:53] <bliss1_> roryy: hello how's life
[07:53] <anto9us> Khamael, what sync software is it?
[07:54] <harisund> Are there softwares in Ubuntu for electrical engineering students? Kind of hardware related coding, assembly language, microprocessor interfacing tools, how to access external hardware like parallel port and so on?
[07:54] <faul> anto9us: yes with this one, i managed to boot but it requires an internet access to proceed to the installation ...
[07:54] <harisund> Where could I find out if I want?
[07:54] <Frogzoo> aravinds: only that all the breezy pkgs are built for 2.6.12...
[07:54] <roryy> bliss1_: great thanks. got an ubuntu problem?
[07:54] <Pupeno> I am installing Kubuntu in a notebook where there's a windows installed. Aside the windows partition and free (unpartitioned space) there's a swap partition, I don't know how it got there... are there any chances that win created it ?
[07:54] <anto9us> faul, maybe you could edit the /etc/apt/sources
[07:54] <agalavis> hi all
[07:54] <anto9us> faul, maybe you could edit the /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:55] <aravinds> frogzoo: is there a dependence of the packages on the kernel?
[07:55] <bliss1_> roryy; kind of but fisrt a big thanks for your help on my partition prob the other day
[07:55] <faul> yes ... and comment out all the internet repository?
[07:55] <Khamael> anto9us, gpilot, I think
[07:55] <roryy> bliss1_: no problem
[07:55] <agalavis> anyone knows if the linux swap works also for freebsd?
[07:55] <anto9us> faul, or change them to point locally, you'd need a mirror of main from the repos
[07:56] <agalavis> in the end it's only free disk space, right?
[07:56] <Frogzoo> aravinds: it's possible - I don't know how different 2.6.12 & 2.6.15 are - best check the kernel release notes
[07:56] <rockviech_> hey
[07:56] <rockviech_> how can i install themes?
[07:56] <rockviech_> where is the .themes folder?
[07:56] <Frogzoo> !tell rockviech_ about themes
[07:56] <faul> how do i create a repository of main. is there not a way to share the files during installation by nfs or ftp?
[07:56] <rockviech_> found it ^^
[07:57] <bliss1_> roryy so today i tried to resize that masive 38 gig hda1 to 5gig with gparted in a live cd started fine then generated unallocated space for two or three sec then reverted back to original size its monday i suppose
[07:57] <anto9us> Khamael, it's just that your question may be too specialised for an answer in here I would guess. Maybe you can try the gpilot mailing list.
[07:57] <juztin> what do i do if i am trying to compile something from source, and i get a message like this: make: *** No rule to make target `install'.  Stop.
[07:57] <martin_> hola
[07:58] <martin_> alguien quer hable espaol
[07:58] <gnomefreak> juztin: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[07:58] <juztin> what do i do if i am trying to compile something from source, and i get a message like this: make: *** No rule to make target `install'.  Stop.
[07:58] <juztin> gnomefreak, i did that already
[07:58] <roryy> !tell martin_ about es
[07:58] <gnomefreak> martin_: /join #ubuntu-es please
[07:58] <martin_> pero como entro ahi?
[07:59] <bliss1_> martin: unbuntu.es
[07:59] <anto9us> faul, yes, create and ftp share of main which could be pointing at the install cd feasibly and update the sources.list on the client machine
[07:59] <agalavis> solo escribe la linea que te envio gnomefreak
[07:59] <Frogzoo> juztin: you scroll up - you need to find the first error generated - probly will be for a missing header file
[07:59] <Wibble-> hey... My box had a HD error a couple of boots ago... I ran fdisk, then typed "reboot" (where as I guess I should have just exited the shell).  This left an entry in /etc/fstab with "errors=read-only" (or similar) which meant the drive was mounted read only.  I removed this entry, and mount now suggests the disk is rw.  However, I cannot write anything to the disk! Can anyone help?
[07:59] <faul> on the client machine?
[07:59] <juztin> Frogzoo, it was this: configure: error: zlib needed
[08:00] <ironfroggy> when my install finishes, will I be able to replace my NIC without any trouble?
[08:00] <anto9us> faul, or in the script that the client runs on boot
[08:00] <Frogzoo> ironfroggy: maybe
[08:01] <ironfroggy> Frogzoo: dependant on?
[08:01] <juztin> Frogzoo, what should i do?
[08:01] <roico> is any1 using anjuta?
[08:01] <gnomefreak> roico: sometimes
[08:01] <Frogzoo> ironfroggy: dependent on the kernel having a module for the new nic
[08:01] <salvador> hi!
[08:01] <linkd> i have in the past roico
[08:01] <faul> okay i'm gonna try one of those solutions... thanks for your help anto9us ...
[08:01] <Frogzoo> juztin: oh, well install the pkg with zlib obviously - 'apt-cache search zlib'
[08:01] <martin_> en donde la tengo que escribir, perdon pero soy nuevo en linux
[08:02] <harisund> roico, I have tried using Anjuta, but somehow wasn't comfortable with it
[08:02] <roico> gnomefreak, linkd: have u managed to debug there??... because when i try, the debugger just hangs, even on the "Hello "World" app...
[08:02] <FliesLikeALap> marcels  #ubuntu-es
[08:02] <gnomefreak> can someone please tell him in spanish to join ubuntu-es
[08:02] <ironfroggy> Frogzoo: ok but if it does, do i need to do anything or is it all autoprobed?
[08:02] <theacolyte> Nice work with Dapper btw, quick question though, under Screen Resolutions I only have 1400x1050 (My laptop screen) but I'm running externally on a monitor that only does 1280x1024 -- and Screen resolution preferences doesn't show that
[08:02] <CablDWRK> what is easier on an older laptop  kde or gnome?
[08:02] <roico> harisund: have u managed to debug there?
[08:03] <gnomefreak> roico: no when i compile it it will give me errors when something is wrong nad i fix it
[08:03] <Frogzoo> ironfroggy: if it has the module, & it's a pci nic, it's 99% likely the kernel will sort it out
[08:03] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell theacolyte about fixres
[08:03] <harisund> roico: I am sorry ,I have never used a debugger, I generally only have tons of print statements :0(
[08:03] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell theacolyte about dapper
[08:03] <martin_> #ubuntu-es
[08:03] <agalavis> CablDWRK: depends on how lod, but you could try xface
[08:03] <gnomefreak> ubotu thanks
[08:03] <ubotu> graag gedaan, gnomefreak
[08:03] <ironfroggy> Frogzoo: good. because once i can rip out this NIC, im gonna burn it.
[08:03] <Frogzoo> juztin: sudo apt-get install zlibc     - think that should do it
[08:03] <juztin> CablDWRK, i used xfce on an older laptop and it ran well...also fluxbox
[08:03] <anto9us> theacolyte, you can add them to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf under your default depth, leftmost resolution becomes the gdm default, usually highest is leftmost
[08:04] <gnomefreak> martin_: type /join #ubuntu-es
[08:04] <Frogzoo> ironfroggy: another satisfied dlink customer
[08:04] <theacolyte> I'm guessing that's a pretty common question... LOL, thanks guys -- just wanted to see if there was an easier way than editing xorg.conf
[08:04] <CablDWRK> juztin:  ok thanks  ill check them out  I have a 500mhz with 512 mem
[08:05] <GnuVince> Does anyone know a good cabinet for a PC (not a server) with a lock that is wall mounted?  We need to protect some PCs at work.
[08:05] <ironfroggy> Frogzoo: weird as hell. it works no problem unless i plug it into one particular router, which happens to be the router i need to use.
[08:05] <roico> gnomefreak: would u please start a new "Hello World" project and try to debug it??...
[08:05] <dgl> marint_, usted estas en uno canal supostamente para personas que hablan ingles
[08:05] <juztin> CablDWRK, then i would go with xfce
[08:05] <dgl> martin_, usted estas en uno canal supostamente para personas que hablan ingles
[08:05] <gnomefreak> roico: what language?
[08:05] <Frogzoo> ironfroggy: disable autoneg at both ends is your best bet - should be trouble free thereafter
[08:05] <roico> C++
[08:05] <roico> or C...
[08:05] <dgl> gnomefreak, spanish
[08:06] <dgl> =)
[08:06] <gnomefreak> dgl: can write a hellp program in spanish i dont know it ;)
[08:06] <anto9us> GnuVince, a proper rack mount with a shelf or two might be what you're looking for
[08:06] <bliss1_> roryy: thinks to himself do i really want to go down that path again
[08:06] <caglar_> does anyone know how the main theme of lord of the rings is called? (the name of the piece)
[08:07] <ironfroggy> Frogzoo: what is autoneg?
[08:07] <GnuVince> anto9us: even for a regular desktop PC?
[08:07] <roryy> bliss1_: sorry, i missed your problem -- you want to resize again?
[08:07] <CablDWRK> juztin: does it have all the control panels like gnome (wireless control panel and such)
[08:08] <anto9us> GnuVince, they're big enough, well ventilated and often have built in fans
[08:08] <ironfroggy> Frogzoo: ive been trying to figure this out for nearly three months, and thats the first ive heard of that.
[08:08] <GnuVince> anto9us: I'll check it out.  Thanks.
[08:08] <anto9us> GnuVince, you can probably pick up a second hand one fairly cheaply, they're often used for telecomms equipment
[08:09] <rockviech> hez
[08:09] <rockviech> how can i change screen resolution?
[08:09] <rockviech> i edited the xorg.conf
[08:09] <Azertyuuu> does anyone know a good DVD -reading program ?
[08:09] <rockviech> to 1280x800
[08:09] <rockviech> but nothing happend
[08:09] <rockviech> system-preferences-screen resolutions only says 1024x768
[08:10] <tristanmike> rockviech: have you tried "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg-xserver" ?
[08:10] <juztin> CablDWRK, it has a lot of control panels, but i'm not sure about the wireless one, i was hardwired
[08:10] <juztin> Frogzoo, i installed that zlibc package, but got the same error when trying to ./configure
[08:10] <lemino> having some trouble installing the driver for my ATI x300se card. I'm on a amd 64-bit system. Have been told it can't be done since ATI doesn't support 64 bits under linux. Is that so?
[08:10] <bliss1_> roryy: yes  I now have got ridof windows and will resize  to create 30 gigs space and install a OS
[08:10] <gnomefreak> mine wont even give me choice to debug
[08:10] <anto9us> rockviech, after editing xorg.conf you have to restart x
[08:10] <bliss1_> roryy: I have wanted this OS for a while
[08:10] <roryy> bliss1_: ok, so what is going wrong?
[08:10] <rockviech> well anto9us, i restarted often
[08:10] <rockviech> nothing changed
[08:10] <lemino> Azertyuuu: mplayer usually works fine.
[08:11] <polpak> Azertyuuu, or totem
[08:11] <Vux> Hey, i can't find sun-j2re1.5 (Sun Java runtime environment). It is probably renamed or something?
[08:11] <gnomefreak> nm its debugging  for some reason longer than i would have liked for this program :(
[08:11] <anto9us> rockviech, make sure the highest resolution is leftmost in your list and make sure it is under the default depth section
[08:11] <polpak> !tell Vux about java
[08:11] <roico> gnomefreak: what do u mean??
[08:11] <Vux> thx
[08:11] <Bambino1> Guys, any suggestion to what i should download to my ubuntu? I am a new user to linux so.. i got advise about gstreamer for movies. And kopete for msn.. Anything more? Like a cool mp3 player would be nice?
[08:12] <lemino> so, is it possible to use my ATI-card in a 64-bit linux environment?
[08:12] <rockviech> well the werid thing
[08:12] <polpak> Bambino1, a lot of that stuff comes preinstalled
[08:12] <bliss1_> roryy: I used a live cd today resized hda1 to 8 gigs gparted showed the unallocated spave for 3 secs then reverted to original size of hda1 which is 38 gigs
[08:12] <rockviech> 1024x768 isnt in the list
[08:12] <rockviech> only a few times 1280x800
[08:12] <gnomefreak> roico: it debugged just fine
[08:12] <Bambino1> polpak, oki.. cool
[08:12] <rockviech> anto9us
[08:12] <anto9us> Bambino1, it's not so much the player as the codecs you need, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[08:12] <polpak> Bambino1, totem for movies, gaim for IM. You just need the mp3 codecs
[08:12] <robert__> does anyone use bluefish here on ubuntu?
[08:13] <gnomefreak> robert__: yes sometimes
[08:13] <roryy> bliss1_: did you remember to click 'apply' ?
[08:13] <Bambino1> polpak, Totem supports divx and all those?
[08:13] <CablDWRK> juztin: can I install gnome then go with xfce and uninstall gnome later without any problems?  or do a server install and add it from install
[08:13] <anto9us> rockviech, you need to set up the monitor section
[08:13] <polpak> Bambino1, if you follow the restricted formats wiki.. yes
[08:13] <roico> gnoefrak: did it hang, or went to the end of cout function at ostream.cc??...
[08:13] <robert__> gnomefreaK: did u install using apt-get or make the source?
[08:13] <Ekumba> hello there
[08:13] <bliss1_> roryy: yes
[08:13] <gnomefreak> robert__: apt-get
[08:14] <tristanmike> Bambino1: have you enable the universe/multiverse yet ?
[08:14] <roryy> bliss1_: hmm. any error messages?
[08:14] <gnomefreak> !info bluefish
[08:14] <Bambino1> polpak, ok i have yet another question. I would really like to listen to music at work, by connecting to my laptop at home, which i will be running the ubuntu on. Is that possibe?
[08:14] <ubotu> bluefish: (gtk+ HTML editor), section universe/web, is optional. Version: 1.0.1-0ubuntu3 (breezy), Packaged size: 1335 kB, Installed size: 5988 kB
[08:14] <Ekumba> does anyone know a program for ubuntu that is like net limiter?i want to use azureus and amule togehter.any idea?
[08:14] <Bambino1> tristanmike, I think i have, but each time i check, its unticked..
[08:14] <gnomefreak> robert__: make sure universe repo is enabled
[08:14] <robert__> gnomefreak: couldn't get it work using apt-get. had to install manually
[08:14] <piper> hello
[08:14] <piper> ppl
[08:14] <robert__> gnomefreak: how do I do that? (noob)
[08:14] <gnomefreak> ^^^ robert__
[08:14] <gnomefreak> !universe
[08:14] <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
[08:14] <piper> specially to all expert in ubunto
[08:14] <gnomefreak> ;)
[08:14] <bliss1_> roryy; ok I did not know how to do that I think its dsmeg | grep gparted
[08:14] <jadaz87> hey does anyone know of a command line musis player?
[08:14] <polpak> Bambino1, yeah, you'll need to set up either an FTP or SSH (more secure) daemon (
[08:14] <robert__> gnomef: thanks! I will look into it
[08:14] <jadaz87> music*
[08:14] <piper> is there anybody could help me
[08:14] <frank23> Ekumba: why don't you just set the bandwitdh limits in amule and azureus accordingly
[08:15] <gnomefreak> robert__: anytime
[08:15] <ironfroggy> ok after my install, i boot up and it says "Preparing for installation..." but it doesnt do a thing. the progress bar isnt even going above 0%
[08:15] <roryy> bliss1_: no, i meant from gparted
[08:15] <Bambino1> polpak, ya i downloaded SSH. Now i need to learn how to actually use it :)
[08:15] <gnomefreak> ok time for school night all
[08:15] <roryy> bliss1_: you're saying it just changed things back -- it didn't give you any warnings or explanations ?
[08:15] <tristanmike> Bambino1: just make sure you click ok, and not cancel, i do that way to often, :P
[08:15] <bliss1_> roryy; no none at all just a suden change back to original size
[08:16] <rockviech> anto9us
[08:16] <Ekumba> cause it is easier with netlimiter.if i use it,amule works fine,without problems
[08:16] <rockviech> back :)
[08:16] <Bambino1> tristanmike, forgive me, but guide me once again? Just so i am 100% sure i am making this right. I go to sunpatic. and then settings and restri something? and there i tick the 2 bottom ones? multi and one nonfree thing?
[08:16] <bliss1_> roryy: could try again
[08:16] <rockviech> nothing changed anto9us
[08:16] <roryy> bliss1_: i'm not sure what the problem is
[08:16] <piper> i want to share my broadband access
[08:16] <roryy> bliss1_: try perhaps a larger size; do you know how much space you're using on that partition ?
[08:16] <tristanmike> Bambino1: watch your private messages
[08:16] <lemino> hello, im dead in the water here!
[08:16] <tristanmike> !tell Bambino1 about universe
[08:17] <piper> i have 2 computer, one is running mac OSX and the other one is Ubunto Linux
[08:17] <bliss1_> roryy: about 4  gigs
[08:17] <ironfroggy> is there some way i can recover from this apparently botched installation?
[08:17] <please> i keep getting and error when i try to install new programs (msttcorefonts
[08:17] <tristanmike> Bambino1: well do this the easy way
[08:17] <piper> anybody has a bright idea
[08:17] <tristanmike> *we'll
[08:17] <bliss1_> roryy: sudden thought theres no swapon hda 1
[08:17] <jadaz87> does anyone know of a command line based mp3/music player?
[08:17] <rockviech> anto9us, mazbe something with vertical and hor syncing??
[08:17] <tristanmike> Bambino1: I assume your using Breezy ?
[08:17] <mohkohn> Hi. If you are using bittorent do you have to download a file all in one go? Or can you do an hour here. Stop. Restart the session?
[08:17] <rockviech> and refrehs
[08:17] <Bambino1> tristanmike, your asumption is correct
[08:18] <polpak> mohkohn, you can stop and restart
[08:18] <roryy> bliss1_: well, having swap is usually a good idea, but gparted should work fine without it
[08:18] <cowboyfeng> How do  update firefox? There is no update function in the preferences like there is in windows
[08:18] <roryy> bliss1_: i'm not sure that having swap makes a difference with the live cd at all
[08:18] <please> E: msttcorefonts: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[08:18] <tristanmike> Bambino1: in the private msg that ubotu sent you, there is a link for Breezy sources, open up that link
[08:18] <bliss1_> roryy: thats what I thought its not essential
[08:18] <Bambino1> tristanmike, I saw, thank you indeed mate, relaly appreciate it
[08:19] <piper> please help me
[08:19] <piper> I try to have a seperate dsl modem
[08:19] <please> E: msttcorefonts: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1. how can i find it
[08:19] <mohkohn> Great. Because I am using an internet cafe in Khartoum Sudan to download Fedora 5. I am using ubuntu. But I run fedora for learning rpm
[08:19] <piper> it doesnt work
[08:19] <tristanmike> Bambino1: so you would "sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.bak"  first
[08:19] <piper> somebody good in hardware
[08:20] <roryy> bliss1_: i'm not sure what the problem is, sorry.  All I can suggest is trying again, especially with larger partition sizes (but if you're only using 4GB, I wouldn't have thought you'd have any problems).
[08:20] <Bambino1> tristanmike, what does that do?
[08:20] <roryy> bliss1_: also, try 'dmesg|tail' for errors, or perhaps look in the /var/log/* files, or run gparted from a terminal (i.e., command line)
[08:20] <polpak> piper, the easiest way to do it is to get a DSL router
[08:20] <polpak> piper, possibly wireless
[08:20] <tristanmike> Bambino1: makes a backup copy  "cp" copy  "/etc/apt/sources.list"  file to copy   "/etc/apt/sources.list.bak"  name of backup copy
[08:20] <poningru> yarr
[08:21] <poningru> err sorry wrong channel
[08:21] <please> E: msttcorefonts: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1..can somebody please tell me what to do to fix the error
[08:21] <polpak> piper, but even the wired ones can be as inexpensive as $40 or so
[08:21] <Bambino1> tristanmike, Oki, and I do this because when i tick the multivers it might "break" ?
[08:21] <piper> DSL Router any brand
[08:21] <bliss1_> roryy: thats on the live cd ok shall we put that to bed for just now
[08:21] <tristanmike> Bambino1: no, not at all, just a precausionary measure, not that reason at all
[08:21] <piper> particularly compatible with Ubunto
[08:22] <roryy> bliss1_: yeah, that would be using the livecd
[08:22] <poningru> please: what were you trying to do?
[08:22] <Sk8aZ> hey, i have a big problem with ubuntu - today i loaned v5.04 and it stops booting in the window, when it cheks my hardware, so please explain - what should i do?
[08:22] <poningru> install msfonts?
[08:22] <tristanmike> Bambino1: it's good to have your orginal sources around just in case
[08:22] <polpak> piper, I've worked with Linksys, and D-Link. But really any one should work independant of the OS
[08:22] <Bambino1> tristanmike, cool. thanks
[08:22] <Sk8aZ> hey, i have a big problem with ubuntu - today i loaned v5.04 and it stops booting in the window, when it cheks my hardware, so please explain - what should i do?
[08:22] <please> i try to use the package manger
[08:22] <piper> ok
[08:22] <polpak> !tell Sk8aZ about patience
[08:22] <piper> thanks polpak
[08:22] <tristanmike> Bambino1: then "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list" and paste the sources from the link into your sources
[08:23] <tristanmike> Bambino1: copying over your orginal file, so replace your file with the link
[08:23] <Bambino1> tristanmike, ok thats more then i understand. So after i do the copy, i should do this? And where is my sources? So i paste my sources INTO my sources? I didnt get that
[08:23] <bliss1_> roryy: I will give a go but will have to log off roryy starts to cry or jumps for joy
[08:24] <Bambino1> tristanmike, when do I do this?
[08:24] <poningru> please: do a reload in the package manager

[08:24] <poningru> and fix packages from the tools menu

[08:24] <please> error
[08:24] <roryy> bliss1_: maybe someone else can offer better advice; i'm certainly not a gparted expert
[08:24] <tristanmike> Bambino1: use "sudo nano....." to open up your sources.list file then delete everything in that file and replace with the link
[08:24] <roryy> bliss1_: fwiw, there are also command-line only tools which may be more powerful, like 'parted', fdisk and resize2fs
[08:24] <please> it also says it can read the cd
[08:24] <bliss1_> roryy; you gave it your best shot thanks
[08:25] <Bambino1> tristanmike, ok, this is still for making a backup?

[08:33] <polpak> !tell Vucko about language
[08:33] <polpak> !tell Vucko about restricted
[08:33] <Vucko> haha kk
[08:33] <poningru> please: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[08:33] <_jason> ubotu: tell Vucko about synaptic
[08:33] <bliss1_> roryy: /usr/sbin/tunctl
[08:33] <bliss1_>  yep so when I run sudo tuncti-u bliss1-t tun0
[08:33] <bliss1_>  how come i get sudo: tuncti-u: command not found
[08:33] <_jason> ubotu: tell Vucko about mp3
[08:34] <Bambino1> tristanmike, i tried to do it, wget -c ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/pool/main/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb did not work
[08:34] <polpak> Vucko, that should be enough to get you started =)
[08:34] <Josh43> Can anyone tell me how to decompress a bzip2 file from one folder into a different folder? (every time I do it, it puts it in the same location as the bz2 file)
[08:34] <please> ok give me a min
[08:34] <Vucko> kk go to read a lil now
[08:34] <Vucko> ty
[08:34] <Bambino1> tristanmike, no such file or directory it seid.
[08:34] <Bambino1> said*
[08:34] <polpak> tell Vucko about themes
[08:34] <polpak> !tell Vucko about themes!
[08:34] <polpak> !tell Vucko about themes
[08:34] <soundray> Josh43: bzcat file.bz2 >/target/dir/
[08:34] <tristanmike> Bambino1: strange, I just clicked that link above, and it's downloading for me
[08:34] <polpak> lol
[08:35] <soundray> Josh43: bzcat file.bz2 >/target/dir/filename
[08:35] <please> ok
[08:35] <please> now what?
[08:35] <roryy> bliss1_: that requires the 'tuncti-u' command - perhaps you don't have that (apt-cache search knows nothing about it)
[08:35] <soundray> Josh43: sorry, the second one is correct
[08:35] <poningru> please: do you have the link?
[08:35] <please> yeah
[08:35] <Sk8aZ> what music player can i use to play mp3's? And what media player for movies?
[08:35] <tristanmike> Bambino1: try going through firefox
[08:35] <polpak> Sk8aZ, any of them can
[08:35] <roryy> bliss1_: packages.ubuntu.com is useful for finding what package contains a particular file
[08:35] <poningru> please: need to see the link dude
[08:35] <Bambino1> tristanmike, ya worked for me too, weird, Ok
[08:35] <polpak> Sk8aZ, the defaults work fine if you install the restricted codecs
[08:35] <anto9us> !tell Sk8aZ about restricted formats
[08:36] <gonzalo> hola
[08:36] <Bambino1> tristanmike, ok that worked. Where should I install?
[08:36] <bliss1_> roryy: sorry what am I searching for
[08:36] <roryy> bliss1_: 'tuncti-u', i presume (i'm not familiar with uml)
[08:36] <tristanmike> Bambino1: just do a "sudo dpkg -i filename.deb" where it's downloaded to and Ubuntu will take care of the rest
[08:36] <Sk8aZ> polpak, is wireless integrated to the 5.10 stable LIVECD?
[08:37] <polpak> Sk8aZ, probably, but you can't install from the LiveCD. Just the install CD
[08:37] <roryy> bliss1_: are you sure that's the right command ?
[08:37] <Bambino1> tristanmike, a question. Like zipped files i install etc,or this one. After i unpack and instlal or whatever. Can i delete the folders?
[08:37] <Josh43> soundray, Wow, that's oldschool - thanks for the quick reply :)
[08:37] <anto9us> Sk8aZ, only for some wireless devices
[08:37] <Sk8aZ> thx
[08:38] <poningru> Sk8aZ: try the 6.06
[08:38] <poningru> live cd
[08:38] <runelind> my proc monitor always says I'm throttled to 733mhz with my ghz computer
[08:38] <robert__> how do I uninstall programs on ubuntu that werent installed using synaptic or apt-get? (ie. gz, gz2) - my program shows up under "applications->programming"
[08:38] <tristanmike> Bambino1: with a deb, yes if you don't want to back it up, delete away, but if you compile it can go either way
[08:38] <poningru> runedude: whats wrong with that?
[08:38] <polpak> poningru, he's wanting to install ubuntu.. I wouldn't really recommend dapper to a noob
[08:38] <rockviech> hey
[08:38] <runelind> poningru: I'd like to run it at full speed when I'm plugged in
[08:38] <rockviech> can someone help me to change screen resolution in ubuntu?
[08:38] <poningru> polpak: I'd say dapper is plenty stable
[08:38] <bliss1_> roryy: if you look at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=66694 and go to section 8 its pretty clear
[08:38] <rockviech> i have nativ 1280x800
[08:38] <poningru> except for some minor bugs
[08:38] <rockviech> but ubuntu only displays 1024x768
[08:38] <tristanmike> Bambino1: installing a ".deb" package this way lists it in Synaptic, so if you open it and search for w32codecs, you will find it
[08:38] <rockviech> but i wanna change it
[08:39] <anto9us> rockviech, you need to set your monitor timings
[08:39] <poningru> runedude: it will throttle back up when you are doing a proc intensive job
[08:39] <rockviech> anto9us
[08:39] <please> is it a bad thing when ur source list is emtpy
[08:39] <tristanmike> Bambino1: but if for some reason you need to reinstall it, you'll have to redownload it
[08:39] <rockviech> i have 60
[08:39] <rockviech> where to set it?
[08:39] <rockviech> xorg.conf?
[08:39] <Bambino1> tristanmike, did not work i am runing 64bit
[08:40] <anto9us> rockviech, yes, you should find out the maximum that your monitor supports and put it in there
[08:40] <roryy> bliss1_: that refers to 'tunctl', not 'tuncti-u'
[08:40] <tristanmike> Bambino1: d'oh!
[08:40] <Bambino1> tristanmike, huh :P I am just following the flow :P
[08:40] <rockviech> hm ok now how to find it out? ^^
[08:40] <rockviech> anto9us
[08:40] <roryy> bliss1_: the command is 'tunctl', with option '-u' -- there's a space between 'tunctl' and '-u'
[08:40] <tristanmike> Bambino1: well, you are now out of my hands, 64 bit is over my head
[08:40] <kleinlappies> hi
[08:41] <tristanmike> Bambino1: some things work some things don't like flash for instance
[08:41] <anto9us> rockviech, it may be on the back of your monitor in it its manual or on the manufacturer's website
[08:41] <Bambino1> tristanmike, Crap!!  Stupid computer :(
[08:41] <kleinlappies> just want to know is nero linux any good if not whats the best to use?
[08:41] <soundray> Bambino1: I've got w32codecs on a amd64 machine. What's your trouble?
[08:41] <dungodung> someone willing to help me set Serbian Cyrillics to my Draper?
[08:41] <rockviech> anto9us , ok and when i found it out, what is the code?
[08:41] <polpak> kleinlappies, for?
[08:41] <tristanmike> thanx soundray :)  I'm lost when it comes to 64 bit
[08:41] <rockviech> VertRefresh and HorSync
[08:42] <anto9us> rockviech, just replace the timings that are in that section already
[08:42] <rockviech> well there are none
[08:42] <soundray> tristanmike: so do I, but I'll give it a go :)
[08:42] <Sk8aZ> Can i install ubuntu 5.10 together with winXP (32bit), if i prepare a seperate partition?
[08:42] <kleinlappies> well writing cd's dvd and video dvd's under ubuntu
[08:42] <Bambino1> soundray, when i tried to install it, it would not let me
[08:42] <Root_Of_All_Evil> does anyone know how to edit the rightclick menue in gnome, to make look like the one in fluxbox or in xfce?
[08:42] <rockviech> anto9us, there are none
[08:42] <Bambino1> Sk8aZ, Yes you can
[08:42] <Bambino1> Sk8aZ, I did :P
[08:42] <anto9us> rockviech, then search for an example :)
[08:42] <Sk8aZ> thx
[08:42] <soundray> Bambino1: did you go through synaptic?
[08:42] <Bambino1> Sk8aZ, it automatically asks you for GRUB bootloader if you want it installed. So i am running winxp and ubuntu
[08:42] <tristanmike> !tell Sk8aZ about dualboot
[08:42] <Bambino1> soundray, Nope, i will do that
[08:42] <bliss1_> roryy: o dear very sorry my fault now its saying Set 'tun0' persistent and owned by uid 1000
[08:42] <tristanmike> Sk8aZ: check your pm from ubotu
[08:43] <soundray> Bambino1: hold on, what *did* you do?
[08:43] <soundray> Bambino1: apt-get install ?
[08:43] <bliss1_> roryy: I should pay more attention to detail
[08:43] <roryy> bliss1_: i've never used uml, but that sounds right -- uid is you
[08:43] <tristanmike> soundray: we changed his sources, he download the deb, via the wiki and he's trying to install
[08:43] <roryy> bliss1_: err, i mean uid 1000 is you
[08:43] <Bambino1> soundray, yes thats what I did.
[08:43] <tristanmike> soundray: apparently it wont let him install it
[08:44] <Bambino1> soundray, no thats what I didnt btw :P
[08:44] <bliss1_> rorry: yep it is sorry for mistake
[08:44] <holycow> hey guys, which wireless network card models work out of the box with breezy (without having to download firmware manually for example)?

[08:46] <tristanmike> Bambino1: they are not in the repos, they had to be removed for legal reasons
[08:46] <poningru> antti: that page covers pci iirc not sure if usb will be covered under that
[08:46] <tristanmike> Bambino1: that's why you download the ".deb" and install it that way, just a bit of red tape so to speak
[08:47] <holycow> Bambino1, looks like wg 311/t is a good bet, i like atheros chipset

[08:48] <poningru> then click on filesystem
[08:48] <soundray> Bambino1: can you point me to a file that you can't play?
[08:49] <minerale> Hi, quick question, how can I view the partitions and their sizes / usage ?
[08:49] <please> ok
[08:49] <soundray> minerale, df
[08:49] <anto9us> minerale, df -a
[08:49] <poningru> then click on etc, then on apt, then see if there is a sources.list
[08:49] <Bambino1> holycow, my ws EXTREMLY easy to install. Once I had the gcc 3.4 but you had to have internet connection to be able to intall it via synapic. If i knew how to download it via windows i wouldve. but now it worked. very very easy.
[08:49] <rockviech> anto9us
[08:49] <rockviech> now i can select, 640, 800, and 1024
[08:49] <poningru> minerale: system->admin->disks
[08:49] <antti> poningru: the main problem now is that I can't load firmware. I have the file in /lib/hotplug/firmware but dmesg can't find it. actually I even don't know what dmesg does.
[08:49] <rockviech> but not 1280x800
[08:50] <minerale> anto9us, soundray: That will not show me the size for /tmp
[08:50] <tristanmike> Bambino1: try this "sudo apt-get install totem-xine"
[08:50] <anto9us> rockviech, have you put in the timings?
[08:50] <Tom39Away> Anyone here good with getting TV tuner cards to work properly?
[08:50] <rockviech> yes anto9us
[08:50] <Sk8aZ> Can i configure skype, to be fully usable as in windows
[08:50] <poningru> antti: dmesg is a command to look at system logs as they happend
[08:50] <rockviech> VertRefresh
[08:50] <rockviech> and HorizSync
[08:50] <Bambino1> soundray, I am not sure if this wont work. But I have 1 hdd. 100gig. I split half for windows, half for linux. But i enabled the windows half since I got some stuff to copy to linux half.. Now i try to play a movie on that, it does not work.. on the windows partion. When I try to play mp3 from my external hdd, (NTFS) it does not work either..
[08:50] <poningru> Sk8aZ: take a look into easyubuntu
[08:50] <poningru> !easyubuntu
[08:50] <ubotu> easyubuntu is an easy-to-use program for installing all your favorites. Java, Nvidia/ATI, and more. It is as safe as the team can make it. It doesn't change any settings by default. http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ or #easyubuntu
[08:50] <anto9us> rockviech, try setting a lower depth as default and put your resolutions in there
[08:51] <Bambino1> tristanmike, done.
[08:51] <rockviech> do you know how to restart x without restarting the whole computer?
[08:51] <rockviech> anto9us
[08:51] <tristanmike> Bambino1: "sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-mad"
[08:51] <anto9us> rockviech, ctrl+alt+backspace
[08:51] <rapha> rockviech: ctrl-alt-backspace
[08:51] <rockviech> thanks :)
[08:51] <Bambino1> tristanmike, got that one.
[08:52] <soundray> Bambino1: what happens if you copy the mp3 or video to your home dir -- will it play then?
[08:52] <tristanmike> ahh, ok, try a video in Totem now
[08:52] <Bambino1> soundray, ill try
[08:52] <Bambino1> oh one question, soundray or tristanmike, any idea why, i have internet, but the monitor that shows the connection has a red vertical line on it? acording to that im not even connected
[08:52] <poningru> please: how did it go?
[08:52] <rockviech> hm rapha and anto9us, with ctrl+alt+backspace i can select apps
[08:53] <tristanmike> Bambino1: because your using wireless but the icon is for wired maybe ?
[08:53] <tristanmike> Bambino1: just a guess
[08:53] <refnumzx> anyway to convert from ntfs to ext2 or 3 with out formating?
[08:53] <please> its there
[08:53] <anto9us> rockviech, that's new to me
[08:53] <rockviech> any command line command?
[08:54] <Bambino1> tristanmike, no i am using network cable atm. :) And thanks tristan and soundray, it worked now to listen to mp3s and watch movie
[08:54] <please> the is what the first line is eb cdrom:[Ubuntu 5.10 _Breezy Badger_ - Release i386
[08:54] <bliss1_> roryy: I wil take a look at the live cd later and see if it works pated is another option
[08:54] <soundray> rockviech: sudo exec /etc/init.d/gdm start
[08:54] <soundray> rockviech: sudo exec /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[08:54] <anto9us> rockviech, try 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart'
[08:54] <roryy> bliss1_: yip. also fdisk and resize2fs -- though those are quite a bit harder to use
[08:55] <tombs> hi all
[08:55] <tristanmike> Bambino1: be wary, 64 bit isn't that great for any os yet, it's still fairly new and some things haven't been "ported" yet. you most likely will encounter problems with wm9
[08:55] <rockviech> hm, same resolutions anto9us
[08:55] <polpak> Bambino1, it's because it's showing your wireless connectivity, but you're actually connected through a network cable
[08:55] <rockviech> can i post you my xorg.conf anto9us
[08:55] <polpak> Bambino1, if you click on it you can change what device it shows
[08:55] <bliss1_> rorryy thanks for your help
[08:55] <anto9us> !tell rockviech about pastebin
[08:56] <bliss1_> roryy thanks for helping me
[08:56] <Bambino1> polpak, if i click on it, i get an error.
[08:56] <roryy> bliss1_: my pleasure

[08:57] <Kris__> hi, i apt-get installed mysql and when i want to start it it can't connect to the socket (and the socket file doesn't exist)
[08:57] <refnumzx> need to convert ntfs to ext2, anyway to do this with out reformating the drive/partition?
[08:57] <DrawLt> anyone in here?
[08:58] <soundray> Kris__: you need to install the server as well
[08:58] <anto9us> rockviech, change 'DefaultDepth 24' to 16
[08:58] <Kris__> yeah i did
[08:58] <DrawLt> need some help connecting ubuntu to my OSX 10.4.5 powerbook
[08:58] <Kris__> mysql-server
[08:58] <sisse> hi, i have a question about easyubuntu. i see that stuff like sun java is hosted on plf. so how is it able to install java if you don't select 'Repository list' on the System tab?
[08:59] <anto9us> rockviech, I think your timings are wrong also
[08:59] <Kris__> or are there more packages that i might have missed (it installed quite a few dependencies, too)
[08:59] <soundray> Kris__: check that it's running with 'ps ax | grep mysqld'
[08:59] <DrawLt> none of the forums are all the helpful
[08:59] <DrawLt> i'm running ubuntu 5.10 and OS X 10.4.5
[09:00] <Kris__> i'll prune it and reinstall and see if the problem is still there first
[09:00] <anto9us> rockviech, what is your monitor make and model?
[09:00] <soundray> DrawLt: your error description isn't all that helpful either :)
[09:00] <rockviech> anto9us, dunno, its an laptop, dell inspiron 1300
[09:00] <Tom39Away> Anyone here good with getting TV tuner cards to work properly?  I managed to get color and the channels right in tvtime, but the sound isn't working.  I checked the input levels, and I know the sound works with the card in Windows.  Any suggestions?
[09:00] <rockviech> 15.4 "
[09:00] <rockviech> nativ 1280x800
[09:00] <Bambino1> tristanmike, thanks for all help mate. Now I need to go home from work. Thanks
[09:00] <soundray> Tom39Away: PAL?
[09:01] <arrick> soundray, where have you been for the last week?
[09:01] <anto9us> rockviech, try VertRefresh     43.0 - 100.0
[09:01] <Tom39Away> sociopath, NTSC
[09:01] <soundray> arrick: Berlin :)
[09:01] <Kris__> ok, that didn't help eiter
[09:01] <Kris__> *either
[09:01] <arrick> offline soundray
[09:01] <soundray> Kris__: check that it's running with 'ps ax | grep mysqld'
[09:01] <arrick> ?
[09:01] <Tom39Away> soundray, NTSC
[09:01] <Kris__> it's not running
[09:02] <Kris__> only the grep itself reported
[09:02] <DrawLt> I have set up a folder on ubuntu to share and have set it up as an smb but when i try to connect to it from OSX using "connect to server" with smb://computer name/directory it asks for a username and password so i know it's finding it.  I don't have a username and password set up for it though
[09:02] <rockviech> ok anto9us
[09:02] <soundray> arrick: later. Got to put the daughter to bed first :)
[09:02] <DrawLt> more clear?
[09:02] <arrick> ok
[09:02] <wvelez> DrawLt: smbpasswd -a username
[09:03] <arrick> DrawLt, yeah that was what i was typing too
[09:03] <soundray> DrawLt: much clearer. Will try helping you in 15 min if nobody else has.
[09:03] <Kris__> /usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
[09:03] <Kris__> error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)'
[09:03] <Kris__> syslog isn't much help either
[09:03] <danq> !xen
[09:03] <ubotu> it has been said that xen is a virtual machine monitor for x86 that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems with unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation. It can be found at http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/Research/SRG/netos/xen/ .
[09:03] <DrawLt> thank you, where in ubuntu would the username and pass that OSX is looking for be set?
[09:03] <DrawLt> maybe that is a quick solution?
[09:04] <arrick> look above for the last post to you
[09:04] <rockviech> ok ato9us, how to restart xserver again?
[09:04] <arrick> DrawLt, ^^^^
[09:04] <Sk8aZ> Is there a way to install windows-based drivers - for sony ericsson w550i phone? or a usb flash keychain?
[09:04] <anto9us> rockviech, try 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart'
[09:04] <diffuser78> is there a programming channel
[09:04] <diffuser78> for python or c++
[09:05] <wvelez> DrawLt: the username/password in kept in your linux machine...
[09:05] <_jason> sisse: it uses an alternate sources.list for those things
[09:05] <_jason> sisse: you can find out more at #easyubuntu
[09:05] <anto9us> diffuser78, /msg chanserv list *python*
[09:05] <wvelez> DrawLt: (on the linux machine) command prompt, smbpasswd -a username
[09:05] <apoc> can i install KDE on my already installed Ubuntu system?
[09:05] <vargha> im new in linux and wanna know something about it. can anyone help?
[09:06] <_jason> apoc: yes, sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[09:06] <Kris__> apoc: yes
[09:06] <hurax> apoc: apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[09:06] <DrawLt> thanx
[09:06] <tristanmike> !help
[09:06] <orn> Howdy. Does anyone know what the deal with Rhythmbox is? That is, why can't it import mp3s?
[09:06] <arrick> vargha, ask your qiestion and if someone knows the answer they will answer
[09:06] <wvelez> DrawLt: youre welcome
[09:06] <_jason> ubotu: tell orn about mp3
[09:06] <apoc> will I be able to uninstall KDE if i dont like it?
[09:06] <arrick> yeah
[09:07] <orn> Thanks bro
[09:07] <_jason> apoc: yes, but it will be a lot easier if you use aptitude
[09:07] <apoc> how will i be able to uninstall KDE if i dont like it?
[09:07] <_jason> apoc: sudo aptitude remove kubuntu-desktop
[09:07] <polpak> _jason, eh.. I'm not sure that'd do anything
[09:07] <_jason> polpak: if he uses aptitude to install it would
[09:08] <frank23> apoc: it's pretty easy but it's not just sudo aptitude remove kubuntu-desktop
[09:08] <crimsun> just remove libarts1c2 and kdelibs4c2
[09:08] <DrawLt> wvelez: sorry to be a pain but i'm not entirely sure how to use this, i've entered it into the terminal but it doesn't tell me any actual passwords, and I don't see how to set it here
[09:08] <arrick> _jason, is right this time guys
[09:08] <rockviech> anto9us, didnt work
[09:08] <DrawLt> i'm obviously not using it in the right way, sorry
[09:09] <arrick> !samba
[09:09] <ubotu> it has been said that samba is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[09:09] <polpak> arrick, aptitude is different than apt-get ?
[09:09] <rockviech> i set HorizSync and VertRefresh to 43-100 and DefaultDepth to 16
[09:09] <arrick> DrawLt, follow the wiki posted above^^
[09:09] <rockviech> only the 3 standart resolutions
[09:09] <apoc> what do i do if aptitude tells me "this aptitude does not have super cow powers"
[09:09] <arrick> polpak, yes
[09:09] <_jason> apoc: apt-get moo
[09:09] <wvelez> DrawLt: sudo smbpasswd -a (username), itll then prompt you for a password...just give it any youd like
[09:09] <anto9us> rockviech, if you know your screen should support it then you need to find the correct timings, meanwhile try depth of 8
[09:09] <arrick> polpak, aptitude creates a package that  can be later uninstalled at once
[09:10] <polpak> arrick, ah.. nice. I'll have to do that more often then
[09:10] <arrick> yeah
[09:10] <apoc> then what?
[09:10] <rockviech> well its a new laptop, directx 9 graphics card
[09:10] <arrick> polpak, see what you can learn from a newbie?
[09:10] <rockviech> i think it should at least support depth 32 ;)
[09:10] <DrawLt> ok thanx i'll try it again
[09:10] <arrick> polpak, i've only been using ubuntu for 2 weeks now
[09:10] <polpak> arrick, indeed. I always just thought aptitude and apt-get were synonimous
[09:10] <arrick> nope
[09:11] <Sk8aZ> Cya, ill come back tomorrow
[09:11] <orn> another question for tyou rascals
[09:11] <arrick> ?
[09:11] <arrick> !question
[09:11] <ubotu> NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, arrick
[09:11] <arrick> hehe
[09:12] <polpak> !justask
[09:12] <ubotu> Ask your question and we'll try to answer it.
[09:12] <arrick> orn these were for you
[09:12] <rockviech> anto9us , found something
[09:12] <rockviech> gonna try
[09:12] <orn> i gathered as much
[09:12] <orn> i am typing my question up :)
[09:12] <polpak> orn, lol
[09:12] <polpak> orn, that big eh?
[09:12] <arrick> ok
[09:12] <orn> nah.. just trying to keep it to the point and explain thoroughly what it is :)
[09:12] <anto9us> rockviech, also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportMachinesLaptopsDell
[09:12] <polpak> orn, well, we appreciate it =)
[09:13] <arrick> somebody needs to teach the bot how to spell english now,, seems like my typos are pointed out enough
[09:13] <fart> can someone help me !! im crazy!! plus alacarte menu editor crashes befor opening
[09:13] <funkyHat> Is it possible/easy to back up an entire partition onto multiple CDROMs, preserving permissions etc.
[09:13] <Kris__> ok, let me reask my question. is there some sort of official ubuntu-mysql (or maybe ubuntu-lamp, i'm sure ppl do this all the time) guide ?
[09:13] <Kris__> inofficial would be fine, too ;)
[09:13] <Amaranth> fart: can you run alacarte from a terminal and pastebin the output?
[09:13] <sisse> thanks, _jason !
[09:13] <arrick> funkyHat, as long as your arent using the partition, yes
[09:14] <funkyHat> arrick, and it's reliable?
[09:14] <jacopoexchange> does anyone had problems with firefox 1.5 plugins
[09:14] <arrick> if your not using the partition, and the partitions not ntfs yes
[09:14] <polpak> !tell Kris__ about lamp
[09:14] <funkyHat> arrick, great :)
[09:14] <orn> Whenever I open menus within gnome, i.e. applications -> games, the images seem to take just a tiny while to load. Anyway, the size of the menu that opens doesn't seem to expect the size of the images, so in effect the menu that opens has a scrolling bar, as if it were too large to display on the screen. If I then (after the images load), close and reopen the same menu, everything is fine because the images have been loaded to memory.
[09:14] <orn>  Is this a known problem?
[09:15] <walter> hello, I'm a newbee and want to know how to install flghtgear
[09:15] <arrick> !fixres
[09:15] <ubotu> Please read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
 http://pastebin.com/638383
[09:15] <klm> does anyone have an explanation for why all the videofiles I download on aMule are encrypted? :/
[09:15] <MTecknology> What codecs do I need to play xgl-demo1.xvid.avi
[09:15] <arrick> orn^^
[09:15] <arrick> !restricted
[09:15] <ubotu> well, restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[09:15] <ptlo> orn: yup
[09:15] <arrick> MTecknology, ^^
[09:15] <rockviech> anto9us
[09:15] <rockviech> one thing
[09:15] <MTecknology> aight
[09:15] <ptlo> orn: the icons can take a while to load the first time, yeah
[09:15] <rockviech> i have an mounted partition
[09:15] <rockviech> fat32
[09:16] <Amaranth> fart: ok, run rm ~/.config/menus/settings.menu
[09:16] <rockviech> and an folder downloads
[09:16] <arrick> !enter
[09:16] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[09:16] <Xaero_Vincent> I have a problem... I added the the Debian sid repository and download the latest kernel image (2.6.16-686) for Ubuntu Breezy... the kernel installed fine.. but a nasty thing happened... I lost my internet connection. Is there a way I can set that up again?
[09:16] <Amaranth> fart: after that alacarte should work again
[09:16] <rockviech> how can i give mozilla the rights to save downloads into this folder?
[09:16] <orn> ptlo: It didn't used to be like that though. It only happened after a fairly recent apt-get upgrade
[09:16] <rockviech> give mozilla root rights
[09:16] <polpak> rockviech, don't do that
[09:16] <arrick> rockviech, preferences
[09:16] <DrawLt> ok this is probably going to start getting annoying but where do i find sudo
[09:16] <orn> ptlo: the image loading time wouldn't bother me if the menu wouldn't become a scrolling one as a result
[09:16] <Amaranth> rockviech: If you have write access to it then any program you're running does as well.
[09:16] <anto9us> rockviech, no, you need to set permissions when mounting
[09:17] <MTecknology> restricted formats wiki doesn't have codecs for xgl-demo1.xvid.avi
[09:17] <arrick> in terminal DrawLt
[09:17] <wvelez> DrawLt: just type it at the command prompt
[09:17] <DrawLt> thank you
[09:17] <polpak> rockviech, you're better off changing the permissions of the mounted FS.
[09:17] <jacopoexchange> xaero_vincent: go to system>admin>networking, there you can find everything about connections
[09:17] <rockviech> how to change the permissions_
[09:17] <arrick> !tell DrawLt about sudo
[09:17] <rockviech> ?
 just wondering what is that for that you want me to delet
[09:17] <arrick> !firefox
[09:17] <arrick> !ff1
[09:17] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, arrick
[09:17] <orn> arrick: the fix resolution was for me? (i am in 1280x1024)
[09:17] <arrick> guys help me out here
[09:17] <polpak> MTecknology, yes it does. You need the win32 codecs, probably totem-xine at the least
[09:17] <arrick> yes
[09:18] <Amaranth> fart: an invalid XML file (did you try to edit it by hand?) that used to contain customizations to the System->Perferences and System->Administration menus
[09:18] <anto9us> rockviech, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[09:18] <polpak> !ff15
[09:18] <MTecknology> ok

[09:18] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[09:18] <arrick> thanks polpak
[09:18] <polpak> there it is
[09:18] <arrick> rockviech, ^^^ see above
[09:18] <Xaero_Vincent> well I lost complete access to the internet... before it worked out-of-the-box... did the new kernel screw up the settings and I need to reconfigure it?
[09:18] <arrick> nope
 hmm never touched it before well at least the progam works now thanks
[09:19] <arrick> Xaero_Vincent, which colonel?
[09:19] <arrick> heh
[09:19] <rockviech> thanks arrick and anto9us
[09:19] <arrick> np :-
[09:19] <arrick> )
[09:19] <arrick> :-)
[09:20] <orn> arrick: Ah, but it isn't a resolution thing. This is the same as would happen if the resolution were low, that is, scrolling menu due to little space to display the items of the menu, but it only happens because the images take a little while to load and gnome doesn't seem to calculate the size of the would-be images correctly. Will try to take screenshot next time it happens to explain.
[09:20] <common_> I've got problem with the libcairo2-dev package
[09:20] <arrick> ok sorry orn
[09:20] <Xaero_Vincent> 2.6.16 isnt officially supported so i added it at my risk but I'm just wondering if I can fix it
[09:20] <Xaero_Vincent> or how I can learn to fix it
[09:20] <polpak> Xaero_Vincent, boot using a previous kernel?
[09:20] <orn> no problem mate :)
[09:21] <arrick> is that dapper?
[09:21] <arrick> Xaero_Vincent, ^^
[09:21] <Xaero_Vincent> polpak that doesnt work either... it screwed that up too
[09:21] <Xaero_Vincent> no its 5.10
[09:21] <common_> libcairo2-dev told me that libcairo2 (= 1.0.4-0ubuntu1) is required but the 1.1.1-0ubuntu1 is meant to be installed
[09:21] <common_> Dapper Flight 5 (after updates)
[09:22] <polpak> !dapper
[09:22] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[09:22] <arrick> common_, go to #ubuntu+1 for dapper support
[09:22] <DrawLt> in the terminal i'm typing "sudo smbpasswd -a (username)" and it's coming back with "bash: syntax error near unexpected toke (' " I have obviously tried putting in my computer's username in the (username) space with the same results
[09:22] <apoc> what is the difference between apt-get and aptitude, which should i use?
[09:22] <common_> thanks
