[15:09] <xax> hi. ever since Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2.6.28-13-generic, I only see noise on my screen right after the splash screen. I can hear sound and I can even log in (blindly), but the whole screen is filled with garbage. this problem didn't come up in and before 2.6.28-11-generic. I have an ATI card. is this a known problem?
[15:09] <scyx> is it possible to change the icon spacing on the desktop?
[15:09] <nownot> im trying to find a driver package ( more specially sata drivers) for my evga 730i, can someone lend me a hand in finding these
[15:09] <nmvictor> what was the command to mount an iso image ?
[15:10] <ActionParsnip> Austad: sorry man, ive drank and slept since then
[15:10] <coldReactive42> scyx: You can right-click the desktop and uncheck keep align to MANUALLY move around the icons without restriction
[15:10] <thiebaude> sebrock, on the bottom of this page, help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[15:10] <nmvictor> scyx: yea, just right click the icon and select whatever you wanna do from the menu
[15:10] <ActionParsnip> nmvictor: sudo mount -o loop /path/to/file.iso /media/cdrom0
[15:10] <johannes__> what do i do when a window is too tall to fit on the screen and i want to see the bottom of the window?
[15:10] <ActionParsnip> scyx: try right click desktop -> display properties
[15:11] <nmvictor> ActionParsnip: thanks,
[15:11] <ortsvorsteher> !iso | nmvictor
[15:11] <sebrock> thiebaude, sorry exactly where?
[15:11] <scyx> ActionParsnip, there is no 'display properties' there
[15:11] <nmvictor> johannes__: resize the window to fit the screen
[15:11] <qwebirc90477> IdleOne: thank you
[15:11] <thiebaude> sebrock, check out that whole page, because its been changed since the last time i used it
[15:12] <coldReactive42> johannes: Right click the window list item, and click move. However, when you try to move it to that new location by clicking, the move will go back to fit in screen, so be wary. Also, not ALL windows can be resized, nmvictor, such as settings, etc for admin stuff
[15:12] <ede> can give me a light, I have difficulty with permission, I have a samba server installed, with permission 755, but when I update the system does not allow changing the file.
[15:12] <mrwes> Since when is X running on tty/F9, I always thought it was F7...
[15:12] <carrie_555> ActionParsnip, I realized that I can only run the game when I in the game's folder.If I'm in any other folder and try to run the game through its path, It doesnt work.. Maybe the game is trying to access files relative to my current path, and if my current path is not the game's path the files won't be found... (not sure..) Do you know how I can solve this ?
[15:12] <scyx> oh, another question: is it possible to remove those drag grips from the applets on the panels?
[15:12] <nmvictor> ActionParsnip: and ortsvorsteher , how about using the fuseiso command?
[15:12] <ActionParsnip> johannes_hold alt and drag the window down
[15:12] <sebrock> thiebaude, I only need to compile or download ffmpeg for xvid, divx conversion. Medibuntu even has a page on ubuntu help site. Is this stuff just uold?
[15:12] <ede> can give me a light, I have difficulty with permission, I have a samba server installed, with permission 755, but when I update the system does not allow changing the file.
[15:12] <cutterjohn> anyone know if some package dependencies were messed up last week and specced bridge & ipmasq to be installed?
[15:13] <micro> anyone could help me with openvpn client troubleshooting plz ? client won't load his own certif made on server :(
[15:13] <ActionParsnip> nmvictor: cos its easier imho and will translate to all nix and bsd systems if you know it
[15:13] <johannes__> ActionParsnip: thanks
[15:13] <JOSHUA__> Do I wanna go with ext3 or ext4?
[15:13] <thiebaude> sebrock, i dont know, medibuntu is what i used when i needed to watch videos and listen to mp3 etc
[15:14] <coldReactive42> lol, wojtek
[15:14] <linuxson25> Hey everyone....just thought I'd let you know that I got my graphic card display driver issue with gnome sorted out
[15:14] <cutterjohn> JOSHUA__ might want some othe rguinea pigs to test ext4 for a while yet...
[15:14] <JOSHUA__> cutterjohn: thanks.
[15:14] <sebrock> thiebaude, I am able to listen, I need the encoding stuff to transcode
[15:14] <nmvictor> ActionParsnip: ok,anyone here know how to uuse znc, some irc  proxy?its man pages is short,just as its name
[15:14] <linuxson25> If anyone who was trying to help me with this problem wants to find out how I did, you can pm me, or just drop a line, and I will explain :)
[15:14] <ajay> Hi guys
[15:15] <ajay> im new to linux
[15:15] <thiebaude> sebrock, i dont know stuff like that
[15:15] <carrie_555> ActionParsnip, I also tried to write a script where I make a cd (change directory) to the game's path, but it doesnt work either... dont know what to do
[15:15] <cutterjohn> JOSHUA__ esp if you plan to have critical data on the partition...
[15:15] <ajay> I just wanted to know how to get the extra version of compiz 3d cube effects
[15:15] <JOSHUA__> cutterjohn: I do. I'll stick with ext3.
[15:15] <len> hi, can any1 help me with ftp mput and shellscript?
[15:15] <ajay> im using the last version of ubuntu that came out
[15:15] <maltobL> JOSHUA__: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1133719
[15:15] <grawity> ajay: Compiz already comes with the Cube -- you just need to enable it. Download this package: compizconfig-settings-manager
[15:16] <noirs> hej
[15:16] <coldReactive42> Compiz config will then show up in System > Preferences
[15:16] <cutterjohn> so no one knows if bridge & ipmasq got mistakenly listed as deps for some package on say friday or thursday?  (somehow they mistakenly got installed on my machine which I didn't notice until I rebooted this morning and had no networking...)
[15:16] <noirs> this is really a weird irc-.client
[15:16] <grawity> ajay: Once you install that package, open the configuration in System > Preferences > CompizConfig, then find "Desktop cube"
[15:16] <noirs> exit
[15:16] <ajay> grawity, thx alot really appreciate
[15:17] <coldReactive42> And make sure you enable rotate cube ajay
[15:17] <ActionParsnip> carrie_555: something like this is what a script is: http://pastebin.com/d40bea976
[15:17] <cutterjohn> (they appear to have been installed on Friday morning, but I know I didn't specify them so they had to've tagged along with another package)
[15:17] <jiohdi> ajay, better have a good graphics card or it may not work
[15:17] <thiebaude> sebrock, i wish i were able to help you with that.
[15:17] <wrapster> can anyone guide me to a good tutorial on builiding .deb pkgs... Not just builiding also editing... And all the places i've looked at provide only editing by apt-get 'ing  the source... Im talking about stuff like using a directory then converting it into a .deb pkgs (after necessary changes are made)  in a nut shell this is what i want...     .deb --> extracted --> directory--->make changes---> back to .deb
[15:17] <GPL> IdleOne: thanks, ahh got back to Ubuntu-Desktop...
[15:17] <ajay> i have the bfg geforce 9800 gt
[15:17] <xax> hi. ever since Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2.6.28-13-generic, I only see noise on my screen right after the splash screen. I can hear sound and I can even log in (blindly), but the whole screen is filled with garbage. this problem didn't come up in and before 2.6.28-11-generic. I have an ATI card. is this a known problem?
[15:17] <cutterjohn> (I suppose that I need to pay more attention to what updates ra einstalling in the future...)
[15:18] <jiohdi> ajay, that should do the job :)
[15:18] <DaZ> wrapster, checkinstall is not enough? :f
[15:18] <IdleOne> GPL: your welcome
[15:18] <danbhfive> wrapster: what changes do you want to make?
[15:18] <jonny_b> I get this error 'Segmentation fault' when trying to run Synaptic from the terminal
[15:18] <ajay> jiohdi, thx alot
[15:18] <carrie_555> ActionParsnip, You are right, works fine! Thanks!
[15:18] <ActionParsnip> carrie_555: sweet ;)
[15:19] <ActionParsnip> carrie_555: script theworld :)
[15:19] <komputes> ajay: you can find more detail on how to install compiz all plugins etc, here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion
[15:19] <linuxson25> xax: Hmmmm.....sounds like a compiz or gdm problem that
[15:19] <wrapster> danbhfive: i have a svr4 pkg that i converted to .deb now instead of installing it a better solution would be to just provide the already present native pkg this support ... but for that to do I need to modify the pkg ...  I would like to know how i can do that...
[15:20] <linuxson25> xax: Just finished sorting out my graphic display issue on my desktop with my NVidia 9600GT card
[15:20] <xax> linuxson25: isn't compix loaded *after* I log in? please correct me if I'm wrong. and what did you do to get your card working again?
[15:20] <wrapster> solution like this is what i want be to use Debian virtual package, (eg zlib1g pkg)  make zlib1g to provide (i.e. using Debian meta tag Provides: in  debian/control) missing packages.
[15:20] <cutterjohn> xax: which ATI card? using the fglrx drivers?  (They're awful... mobility 4850 here...)
[15:20] <danbhfive> wrapster: well, a .deb is just a gzip of a binary and controls scripts and install scripts.
[15:20] <linuxson25> xax: You have an active iternet connection?
[15:20] <grawity> danbhfive: actually, .deb is not gzipped
[15:20] <wrapster> danbhfive: have a look at my prev msg.. something like that is what I want to do
[15:21] <danbhfive> grawity: ah, I see, what is it?
[15:21] <thiebaude> !.deb
[15:21] <xax> linuxson25: yes.
[15:21] <ajay> when i rotate the windows i have this glitches that appears, is it normal
[15:21] <grawity> danbhfive: to extract a deb, use 'ar x file.deb'
[15:21] <grawity> danbhfive: (ar, not tar)
[15:21] <wrapster>  i have been using solaris for 2 yrs now.. Not very familiar with the .deb system... thats y needed help
[15:21] <linuxson25> xax: So you dont see the log in screen at all?
[15:21] <cutterjohn> xax had to turn off compiz on my machine ow it freezes on wake from sleep plus other problems with every catalyst since 9.2
[15:21] <xax> cutterjohn: HD 4850. and to be honest, I can't remember which drivers I installed. I think I used the official one from ATI.
[15:21] <grawity> danbhfive: then you'll get two .tar.gz's and one .xml, I think.
[15:21] <GPL> How to set Emerald to automatically do this command on startup "emerald --replace &"
[15:22] <cutterjohn> xax they're horrible...
[15:22] <grawity> GPL: Are you using GNOME?
[15:22] <linuxson25> xax: I basically un-installed all compiz packages. You using gdm?
[15:22] <VCoolio> GPL: do you use compiz?
[15:22] <wrapster> grawity: no xml... I was not able to get it
[15:22] <GPL> grawity: Yeah.
[15:22] <xax> linuxson25: right, I only see garbage that moves when I move my mouse.
[15:22] <GPL> VCoolio: i am not using compiz-settings-manager, but yeah Yes to compiz
[15:22] <linuxson25> xax: This before or after log in screen?
[15:23] <linuxson25> xax: Can you open a virtual prompt?
[15:23] <grawity> GPL: Open compizconfig-settings-manager, "Window decorator", should be there.
[15:23] <linuxson25> xax: Ctrl+Alt+F2 at log in
[15:23] <GPL> grawity: i uninstalled compizconfig-settings-manager,
[15:23] <grawity> GPL: Then install it again?
[15:23] <GPL> grawity: using that, i couldnt move my windows :(
[15:23] <xax> linuxson25: yes. it's right after the splash screen and before the login window appears. and I can switch to other terminals with CTRL+ALT+FX.
[15:23] <linuxson25> xax: What type of internet connection you got?
[15:23] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 if his behaves like mine he'll have problems if x.org changes resolution as on mine it corrupts the virtual terminal displays to unreadability
[15:24] <grawity> GPL: compizconfig-settings-manager is just a settings manager, nothing else
[15:24] <VCoolio> GPL: in compiz settings manager you can add 'emerald --replace' in the window decorator plugin, or use fusion-icon, or add it to startup apps with a delay
[15:24] <xax> cutterjohn: what drivers would you suggest then?
[15:24] <GPL> grawity : okay, installing it.
[15:24] <wrapster> danbhfive: can you help me
[15:24] <xax> linuxson25: DSL.
[15:24] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: Doesnt seem like he has any problems switching to virtual screens
[15:24] <nvartolomei> hello
[15:25] <cutterjohn> xax it's a no win situation, the OSS drivers aren't there yet, and the catalysts are awful but kind of work... I'd suggest turning off compiz (desktop effects) and just getting basix X working
[15:25] <ferry> hi
[15:25] <MikeSeth> cutterjohn: catalyst works for me
[15:25] <MikeSeth> with compiz and all
[15:25] <nvartolomei> i just installed ubuntu (first time) on an toshiba notebook
[15:25] <nmvictor> hi ferry
[15:25] <danbhfive> wrapster: not really, you'd better ask in -motu
[15:25] <xax> cutterjohn: what about just using the older kernel which still works?
[15:25] <nvartolomei> and what is this error about? PCI unsupported PM CAP regs Version (7)
[15:25] <linuxson25> xax: I only had problems with gdm, cause compiz was still using the old intel graphics driver from my laptop....it was a cloned live-cd that I used to install Ubuntu on my desktop
[15:25] <nmvictor> anyone know how to use znc?
[15:26] <wrapster> danbhfive: #motu you mean
[15:26] <cutterjohn> MikeSeth: freeze on wake from sleep with compiz on, freeze playing video after wake from sleep, random screen corruption, failure to restore desktop res after quit from fullscreen apps, etc ALT-SYSRQ RSEIUB gets alot of overtime here
[15:26] <danbhfive> wrapster: no, #ubuntu-motu
[15:26] <linuxson25> xax: What you wanna do is log in on a virtual prompt, and try and cd to your error logs for xorg
[15:26] <wrapster> ok
[15:27] <linuxson25> xax: should be /var/log
[15:27] <JOSHUA__> How much swap space should I allocate?
[15:27] <xax> linuxson25: I'll do this next time I reboot. good idea. thank you :)
[15:27] <MikeSeth> cutterjohn: got another video card in the box? i had all this until i disabled the onboard vga and forced autoconfig with aticonfig
[15:27] <linuxson25> xax: And maybe try and set the display config to vesa
[15:27] <ortsvorsteher> JOSHUA__: 1,5 x RAM if you have 1gb ram, give 1,5gb swap...
[15:27] <cutterjohn> MikeSeth: ope, it's a notebook with a mobility 4850
[15:28] <linuxson25> xax: Pastebin the output of the xorg.log file
[15:28] <JOSHUA__> Thanks.
[15:28] <ortsvorsteher> !swap | JOSHUA__
[15:28] <MikeSeth> cutterjohn: mobility 3450 works here
[15:28] <MikeSeth> dual screen too
[15:28] <linuxson25> xax: And if you find a lot of them, just delete the xorg.log files, it will create a new one
[15:28] <linuxson25> xax: when you try and boot up again
[15:28] <xax> linuxson25: okay. :)
[15:29] <nownot> i need help finding the .deb file for dmraid 14 .... ideas on where to get it
[15:29] <cutterjohn> MikeSeth: technically mine works too as long as I don't do anything tricky like turn on compiz, or expect to do anything 3Dwise after waking from sleep
[15:30] <MikeSeth> cutterjohn: dunno about wakeups, that's prolly a kernel problem, other than this I would start turning off acceleration options
[15:30] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: I had a problem with compiz using my old Intel Display graphics driver. KDE desktop worked fine, but when I tried GNOME, it would just give me a white screen
[15:30] <cutterjohn> MikeSeth: been there, done that  just keep hoping now that one month the catalyst will magically fix my (and others) problems... only bug fixed for me so far was the annoying flickering when running opengl apps in windows
[15:31] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: I used remastersys to clone the Ubuntu installation on my laptop
[15:32] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 Oh comp[iz works OK, it's when I put the notebook to sleep that problems occur... so in the end just turning it off was the easiest solution
[15:32] <cyberkilla> Hello
[15:32] <cyberkilla> Does anybody know where there gnome-shell channel is?
[15:32] <cyberkilla> Which server?
[15:32] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: You maybe ever considered switching to a nVidia display adaptor? Ubuntu has lots of support drivers for a wide range of them
[15:32] <what_if> What is the program in ubuntu that detects your hardware and asks you how well it works ??
[15:33] <cyberkilla> I can't seem to find a gnome irc server in xchat
[15:33] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: Oh.....you got a notebook
[15:33] <nownot> alright found this<EMAIL_ADDRESS>how do i apply this patch
[15:33] <cutterjohn> liinuxson25 this is a notebook, easier said than done to switch GPUs but my new desktop is going to have a GTX260 or 285 because of this
[15:33] <bastidrazor> cyberkilla, #bash ?
[15:33] <grawity> cyberkilla: then add it -- irc.gnome.org
[15:33] <cyberkilla> thanks!
[15:33] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: Ok, nice :)
[15:33] <Jackiz> how can i make my laptop go into sleep mode automaticly when the lid is closed?
[15:34] <cutterjohn> linuxson AMD got their shot with this nb(my mistake) so no more AMD for me until they either get good OSS drivers out or fix their proprietary ones
[15:34] <ortsvorsteher> Jackiz: check settings in system -> settings -> energy settings
[15:34] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 according to their OSS driver guy(or one of them) the 2D part of the OSS drivers is already better than fglrx, just 3D is poor ATM
[15:35] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: LOL....I am the only AMD hardware I am running is my AMD64 TriCore CPU
[15:35] <Jackiz> thanks man
[15:35] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 going core i7 920 (I think unless 1156 i7s are any good) + nVidia GPU
[15:36] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 old desktop is 4800+ x2
[15:36] <nownot> pls somebody\
[15:36] <path1> hi
[15:36] <cutterjohn> AFK for a minute
[15:36] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: Wow, I would like to get my hands on one of those new i7 cores.....they pretty expensive this side of the world
[15:36] <nifty> hello how come ubuntu 8.04 wont recognize my ipod touch?
[15:36] <mnaines> cutterjohn, I have an Intel Core2 Quad with the nVidia GeForce 8800GTS 640MB superclocked
[15:38] <ortsvorsteher> !ipod | nifty
[15:38] <psywiped> how do i clean a hdd?
[15:39] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 they're about $40 more than AMD 965 phenom ii here
[15:39] <path1> i run windows vista and i've set up a ubuntu server. i would like to connect to it remotely. should i use VNC or RDP and i've also heard about freeNX
[15:39] <nmvictor> !znc
[15:39] <ortsvorsteher> !bot | nmvictor
[15:39] <path1> whats fastest, what will work under vista, could i use remote desktop with all of these ?
[15:39] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 oops make that $20, $40 is the 955
[15:40] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: Man....that is so unfair!! They almost 2x, 3x more expensive than the normal qua cores
[15:40] <nmvictor> ortsvorsteher: you should have typed some link to info about znc,what you gave me is an old line in this channel
[15:40] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 last I checked on newegg a core i7 920 1366 is $279
[15:40] <mnaines> linuxson25, I'm using a Kentsworth quad-core
[15:40] <ortsvorsteher> !info znc | nmvictor
[15:40] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 AMD 965 was like $240 or $250 IIRC
[15:40] <ActionParsnip> path1: rdesktop if you enable remote logon
[15:40] <mnaines> The Kentsworth is the name for the Intel Core2 Quad Q6600
[15:40] <ortsvorsteher> nmvictor, you mean this link?
[15:41] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: Live in sunny South Africa. That CPU would cost me $279x10
[15:41] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 can't order it from overseas? and hope to miss VAT?
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> path1: vnc is very heavy and unencrypted
[15:41] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: Technically speaking
[15:41] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 er import tax?
[15:41] <path1> @ActionParsnip what is rdesktop? is it rdp? is it faster than the others?
[15:42] <path1> does it come with the default installation of ubuntu 9.04 desktop
[15:42] <ActionParsnip> !info rdesktop | path1
[15:42] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: Nope. Have to pay import tax and everything...by that time it would be close to 4K
[15:42] <ActionParsnip> path1: it just integrates better as its made by microsoft for their OS
[15:42] <nmvictor> ortsvorsteher: thanks, now you did something.however i have it installed, its the usage thats a problem.its man page is not helping much,any ideas on how to use it?
[15:42] <cutterjohn> linuxson25: I
[15:42] <ActionParsnip> path1: rather than some 3rd party app
[15:42] <cutterjohn> linuxson25: I'd think about re-locating...
[15:42] <path1> @ActionParsnip i think it comes default with ubuntu installation and i've already used it, but its slow
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> path1: it also uses 128bit encryption so is quite secure wheras vnc isnot
[15:43] <ortsvorsteher> nmvictor, no, i never used znc so i dont know about how to use. may you search the web by your preferred search engine...
[15:43] <Sirmimer> Hello
[15:43] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: lol...yeah, tell me about it. Was thinking about moving to UK or Scotland
[15:43] <path1> or what i tried was slow, not sure if it really was rdp
[15:43] <Sirmimer> This is a help channel for ubuntu right?
[15:43] <path1> @ActionParsnip so what about freeNX?
[15:43] <tehlor> linuxson25: scotland! ftw
[15:43] <cutterjohn> linuxson25: weather will be miserable, but the tax situation is a little better, but prices are still high...
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> path1: no the default is vnc and yes it is slow
[15:43] <nmvictor> ortsvorsteher: ok, thanks.
[15:43] <linuxson25> Sirmimer: Yip
[15:43] <ortsvorsteher> you're welcome
[15:44] <ActionParsnip> path1: why do you need to see a full desktop though? Can you not get web interfaces to your apps?
[15:44] <ortsvorsteher> !hello | Sirmimer
[15:44] <Sirmimer> Linuxson25, could you maybe help me with some questions?
[15:44] <linuxson25> tehlor: Yeah....lol. I love rainy weather like that?
[15:44] <linuxson25> Sirmimer: Sure :) What can I help you with?
[15:44] <tehlor> i do
[15:44] <cutterjohn> linuxson25: and Intel will be trying to extract an extra $1.5B from the EU for a while
[15:44] <Sirmimer> well first little question
[15:44] <Sirmimer> I got this mouse
[15:44] <Sirmimer> And need to know if its drivers can be installed on linux?
[15:45] <ortsvorsteher> !enter | Sirmimer
[15:45] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: Geez.....so I am looking at relocating to "Down Unda"? lol
[15:45] <danbhfive> Sirmimer: they are part of the kernel
[15:45] <ActionParsnip> path1: you will have to enable remote login enabled
[15:45] <Sirmimer> (i cant find the install cd right now -.-), so i need to know if i can install Sidewinder x5 from mikrosoft on the newst version of ubuntu?
[15:45] <ActionParsnip> path1: rdp will also lock the local system's display as you only have a single desktop licence on the system
[15:46] <cutterjohn> linuxson2 probably a better option than UK or Scotland at least weatherwise....
[15:46] <linuxson25> Sirmimer: What kinda mouse is it? And what version of Ubuntu you running?
[15:46] <path1> @ActionParsnip no problem if the local system will become locked. as long as its a fast and secure way, its good
[15:46] <Sirmimer> Linuxson25, i am on the newst version of ubuntu 9. something i belive, Its a sidewinder X5 from mikrosoft
[15:46] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: Intel 920 2.66GHz i7 Quad Core CPU
[15:46] <linuxson25> R3,128.16
[15:46] <ActionParsnip> path1: i'd look into more sophistcated ways to interface with the system. oftem the whole desktop is not needed
[15:47] <cyberkilla> Does anybody here use a custom TTY resolution?
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> path1: e.g. vlc has a web interface which can be used instead of streaming the entire screen to manage audio playback
[15:47] <cutterjohn> linuxson2 that would be the one, but now I'm waiting to see how the 1156 version turn out although I'm thinking that tri-channel memory will be the win over dual channel
[15:47] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 how much are video cards in SA?
[15:47] <cyberkilla> I have a 17" 1440x900 LCD screen and the terminals/boot messages are incredibly blurry
[15:48] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: They roughly about in the same price class. Depends on what you buying. I've seen some in the 9K class
[15:48] <Sirmimer> Anyone know if that mouse's drivers can be install on ubuntu?
[15:49] <linuxson25> Sirmimer: You running Ubuntu Jaunty?
[15:49] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 is that US dollars? or local currency?
[15:49] <ortsvorsteher> !details | Sirmimer
[15:49] <Halitech> Sirmimer, what mouse? typically they should just work
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> Sirmimer: you'll find there is an open alternative some place if the kernel doesnt already play nice with it
[15:49] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: Local. If I were to convert it to dollars, you'd most probably pay somewhere in the region of $900
[15:49] <Sirmimer> I am totally new to ubuntu, so sorry if i dont know the version, i just downloaded the newst version of ubuntu yesterday, i got a mouse: sidewinder x5 from mikrosoft
[15:50] <boss_mc> Sirmimer: it will work as a mouse out of the box, but any shortcut buttions on it/force feedback might not
[15:50] <MikeSeth> cutterjohn: vga=ask in boot options
[15:50] <Sirmimer> i can use my mouse, but i cant use my side keys on it.
[15:50] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 still prettye xpensive... what the hell does SA need all the tax money for?
[15:50] <len> how do I mount ftp into a folder?
[15:50] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: So they can pocket it most likely? lol
[15:50] <cyberkilla> ooh
[15:51] <jonny_b> Can some one look at this please ---> http://paste.ubuntu.com/258100/
[15:51] <Sirmimer> the side keys are working, but i cant bind them to anything in the game i'm playing. The way i did it on windows vista was making the two side keys to like enter and swift, and then i could bind swift ingame, and it would work for that side key.
[15:51] <len> can any1 help me?
[15:51] <path1> @ActionParsnip i use a software called "PersonalBrain" and i want to use it from a remote machine, thats why i need the desktop
[15:51] <linuxson25> len: Whats up?
[15:51] <nmvictor> anyone know of a tool that will monitor the network and give on-the-fly info about the connection,packets,downloaded data and stuff?
[15:51] <len> mount ftp into a folder
[15:52] <nmvictor> url 9
[15:52] <tehlor> jonny_b: looks like a compile issue
[15:52] <jonny_b> tehlor: what can i do
[15:52] <digilord> Does anyone know how to swap the command and control keys on a Mac keyboard in Ubuntu 9.04?
[15:52] <tehlor> jonny_b: paste the command that gave you the error
[15:53] <linuxson25> cutterjohn:MSI® GeForce GTX 295 1792MB VGA card (N295GTX-M2D1792) Roughly $745.00
[15:53] <len> linuxson25, I need to mount ftp server into a local folder or use mput (ftp command) to copy a folder with subfolder without asking
[15:53] <nmvictor> !info netstat
[15:53] <jonny_b> tehlor: i can open add/remove so tried through terminal and got that error
[15:53] <nmvictor> !info netstat intrepid
[15:53] <jonny_b> tehlor:sorry 'cant open'
[15:53] <Sirmimer> When i installed the drivers / program called mouse pointer, i could control some settings in my mouse. Like chaning the sidekeys to be like enter/swfit, thatway i could bind them ingame, anyone know if i can do the same on linux?
[15:53] <grawity> len: You could use GNOME's FTP support -- Places -> Connect To Server...
[15:53] <cutterjohn> linuxson25: those are prettye xpensive here too, so I never looked... just a minute
[15:54] <grawity> len: And then it will be available in ~/.gvfs/ too.
[15:54] <grawity> len: Or take a look at ftpfs.
[15:54] <jackiz> my computer does not start after sleep-mode

[15:54] <tehlor> jonny_b: try downloading the src file for the app
[15:54] <tehlor> jonny_b: you might be able to pass some commands to gcc to fix it

[15:55] <tehlor> jonny_b: private me for more info

[15:55] <linuxson25> len: you could also try sshfs
[15:55] <nmvictor> is the ubbotu gave about nettstat right?i doubt
[15:55] <len> grawity, Im trying to write a shell script to do an automated ftp job, thats y i dont wanna use gnome ftp
[15:55] <linuxson25> len: sudo apt-get install sshfs
[15:55] <Sirmimer> boss_mc, i am totally new to linux, and not a computer shark, that guide seems really confusing to me :S
[15:55] <len> how it works?
[15:56] <grawity> len: Okay... 1) Do you have to use FTP? Using SSH would be more secure.
[15:56] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: Wow....thats pretty cheap compared to down here for the same spec card
[15:56] <Sirmimer> boss_mc, sorry it just closed it, didnt mean to do that.
[15:56] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 still overpriced for what it is IMNHO though
[15:57] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 it's almost twice th eprice of the CPU I'm looking at...
[15:57] <len> linuxson25, grawity , it's simple to use from shell script?

[15:57] <nmvictor> IdleOne: looks like thats available for jaunty, im still in the comfort zone of intrepid?any ideas about gnome-nettool for intrepid?id appreciate the link to its .deb so i can just wget.im stuck at the terminal
[15:58] <IdleOne> nmvictor: do apt-cache search netstat
[15:58] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 that MSI card is $500 here, used to be $530 so temporary price break I guess
[15:58] <Jontafk> !doc
[15:58] <nmvictor> IdleOne: is netstat and Gnome-net tool one and the same?
[15:58] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: Geez....thats almost 3K cheaper than here
[15:59] <IdleOne> nmvictor: I believe gnome-nettool provides netstat
[15:59] <cyberkilla> vga=ask..
[15:59] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 these are all online prices so they're somewhat cheaper(sometimes alot) than an in store retail price
[16:00] <cyberkilla> Thanks again, whoever posted that: )
[16:00] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: Yeah, I was looking at online prices
[16:00] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 shipping adds about $10-20 here unless they have a free(slow) shipping deal
[16:01] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: Would still be almost 3K cheaper
[16:01] <nmvictor> IdleOne: thanks
[16:01] <jackiz> my monitor wont restart after sleep mode, my computer is HP pavilion dv9000 laptop
[16:01] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 don't feel too bad as prices are apparently as bad in Russia according to a guy on the phoronix forums...
[16:02] <linuxson25> jackiz: That might be either a firmware or hardware problem. I had the same problem with my LG LW60 notebook when I still had Windows XP loaded on it. Did it use to work?
[16:02] <leaf-sheep> Is it possible to apt-mirror few packages (eg, ubuntu-minimal, ubuntu-desktop)?
[16:02] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 he was looking at those re-badged GTS series, so I suggested(unknowingly) a GTX260-216
[16:03] <nmvictor> hey, when carrying out a ssh access, i bet the remote computer must be on, that is running,right?
[16:03] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: I heard. Their taxes must be pretty bad as well. Inflation rate there goes up by the second....lol
[16:04] <mnaines> nmvictor, if it is not on, you cannot gain access...Its a no-brainer
[16:04] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 I should've know better because there was a Russian guy here going back to Russia that ordered an MSI GT627 nb when I ordered my GT725 because it ws so much cheaper here...
[16:05] <nmvictor> mnaines: i guessed, just wanted to be sure.thanks
[16:05] <nownot> using dmraid the biggest partition i can have is 2tb?
[16:06] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: Yeah. Why you think so many people from overseas come here for their summer and December vacations? Your dollar buys so much more here than our rands
[16:06] <mrwes> Anyone have any luck speeding up the xfer rates on a BCM4309 card using the B43Legacy driver?
[16:06] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: lol
[16:06] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 didn't know many people went to SA for vacation... most people that I know tend to go to Mexico or the carribean
[16:06] <mrwes> My Intel 2200 pro died on me...heh
[16:07] <jackiz> linuxson25: no, it did not work in vista
[16:07] <jackiz> linuxson25: but when the computer was new i think it worked.
[16:07] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 mostly because its actually warm there in December.... we had so many days of -10C or -20C or so windchill here last winter...
[16:07] <linuxson25> jackiz: Then it most probably wont work in Ubuntu as well. Got the same problem with my LG, even after installing Ubuntu. It still under warranty?
[16:08] <cutterjohn> linuxson25: oops make that -25C, and -25C windchill now that I re-check
[16:08] <fabrizio> hello to everybody
[16:09] <fabrizio> somebody can help me ?
[16:09] <IdleOne> fabrizio: with?
[16:09] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: Wow....that is cold. It gets pretty hot here during the summers yeah....but you dont wanna be living in any big, open planes here during winter, cause then the temprature drops to like -7*C
[16:09] <nownot> using dmraid the biggest partition i can have is 2tb?
[16:10] <fabrizio> I need to know how install files and game on the computer?
[16:10] <Jontafk> fabrizio: Synaptic
[16:10] <IdleOne> linuxson25 and cutterjohn interesting convo but can you guys go to #ubuntu-offtopic to continue it please
[16:10] <cutterjohn> linuxson25 hmmm... didn't think that it got that cool in SA other than th emountains maybe.... anyways gotta run...
[16:10] <Jontafk> Just open your packagemanager fabrizio
[16:10] <cutterjohn> Idleone leaving anyways
[16:10] <Wizzup> Hello. I have recently upgraded to Karmic, and somehow my Nvidia-180 driver is still (partially) installed, but it isn't according to the package manager. I have installed 185 with the package manager. How would I go around completely removing 180?
[16:10] <linuxson25> cutterjohn: Cheers
[16:10] <Jontafk> or do you mean games for MSW?
[16:10] <fabrizio> thank
[16:11] <fabrizio> but were is the pakage manager?
[16:11] <linuxson25> IdleOne: Will keep that in mind :)
[16:11] <mrwes> fabrizio, system | admin
[16:11] <IdleOne> fabrizio: System> Administration > Synaptic package manager
[16:11] <IdleOne> linuxson25: thank you :)
[16:12] <linuxson25> Wizzup: You tried purging after removal? Maybe try that with terminal?
[16:12] <Wizzup> linuxson25: How? :)
[16:12] <pisse> Hi! Can someone help me out with the apache rewrite module? I've googled and tested but can't make it work :S I've changed the wwwroot to ~/public_html/ and added a .htaccess file in that dir. I've tried to edit that file and /etc/apache2/apache2.conf and /etc/apache/httpd.conf.. I also used the command a2enmod rewrite.. Either I need a very good tutorial/how to or maybe someone here could help me out step by step? Thanks
[16:12] <fabrizio> ok thank you so much
[16:12] <linuxson25> Wizzup: try sudo apt-get autoremove
[16:12] <Wizzup> Oh yea,done that.
[16:12] <fabrizio> idleone thank you
[16:13] <linuxson25> Wizzup: And you tried uninstalling the actual package with sudo apt-get remove?
[16:13] <linuxson25> Wizzup: sudo apt-get remove [package name]
[16:13] <dsdeiz> hello, is there a way to simulate a keypress event?
[16:14] <Wizzup> linuxson25: Yes. It says it isn't installed.
[16:14] <Wizzup> The problem is, I can't start X due to conflicting driver versions
[16:14] <Wizzup> It tells me my Nvidia X driver is 180, whileI installed185
[16:14] <IdleOne> fabrizio: prego
[16:14] <Wizzup> And the kernel-nvidia is 185:-/
[16:15] <gurmit> can someone tke a look at my fdisk -l results and tell me why its all weird
[16:15] <linuxson25> Wizzup: Hmmmm..... And if you type only part of the package name and then press TAB, does it show any other packages with the same name? Maybe try uninstalling all of them?
[16:15] <GPL> I cant make RotateCube Compiz Effect work ? Some documentation or tutorial would help ? UHH!
[16:15] <fabrizio> idleone you talk italian too?
[16:15] <Wizzup> linuxson25: I think I did that, too
[16:15] <Wizzup> Even tried dpkg-reconfigure
[16:15] <linuxson25> Wizzup: And no other package names displaying?
[16:16] <Wizzup> No
[16:16] <Wizzup> I'll go back to 180 for now:)
[16:16] <Halitech> gurmit, can you post them using pastebin
[16:17] <komputes> !paste | gurmit
[16:17] <linuxson25> Wizzup: Hmmmm.....What desktop manager you using? GDM? You could maybe try completely uninstalling compiz, and then when you log back in, change the compiz setting to "Normal". This will then prompt you to download the necesary display driver if I am not mistaken
[16:18] <xiphos> I need some help, I installed firestarter to manager my iptables, but everytime I reboot firestarter is telling iptables to through up the firewall. How do I stop this?
[16:18] <linuxson25> Wizzup: Then maybe over-ride the old driver
[16:18] <mnaines> xiphos, its supposed to do that.  You WANT iptables to enable the firewall every time you boot up
[16:19] <IdleOne> fabrizio: a little bit yes
[16:19] <gurmit> ok i did it
[16:19] <gurmit> where does it show
[16:20] <linuxson25> Wizzup: You can also try sudo apt-get purge to remove any left over packages
[16:20] <CoRnJuLiOx> ok, you know how in windows the filenames on the icons truncate at a given length, giving the icons a more or less uniform look? how do you get that same effect in GNOME? the icons display the full filenames, some of which are really long and its kinda jarring.
[16:20] <fabrizio> ok welcome in italy anyway
[16:20] <gurmit> komputes could you have a look if your free?
[16:20] <gurmit> i pasted it in pastebin
[16:20] <fabrizio> idleone you welcome
[16:21] <xiphos> I guess if firestarter is going to put up the firewall across reboots, its coming off this box
[16:21] <Halitech> gurmit, you need to post the url in here for us to see it
[16:21] <dennispudwill> can anyone tell me how to install unbuntu remix on a netbook?, I've downloaded remix and put it on a flash drive
[16:21] <kmosh> how does one know ones display name?
[16:21] <gurmit> oops
[16:21] <gurmit> http://paste.ubuntu.com/258115/
[16:21] <CoRnJuLiOx> xiphos, i'm curious, why wouldn't you want the firewall to start on boot?
[16:21] <mnaines> xiphos, why don't you want a firewall?  Do you want to get hacked?
[16:22] <gurmit> halitech komputes  http://paste.ubuntu.com/258115/
[16:22] <komputes> gurmit: whats the issuem can't boot into ubuntu?
[16:22] <xiphos> I don't need a firewall to come up on a LAN that I manage and know to be secure
[16:23] <fabrizio> idleone thank so much we feel the next time bye to you and everybody of the community
[16:23] <mrwes> xiphos, agreed
[16:24] <gurmit> komputes
[16:24] <Vinceman> is there a way to reset all settings of your ubuntu installation back to the defaults?
[16:24] <gurmit> i have no issue, but it says the partition table is all messed up ?
[16:24] <Vinceman> as if you just did a new install?
[16:24] <Halitech> gurmit, pretty much normal for a windows formated thumb drive
[16:25] <dennispudwill> can anyone tell me how to install remix on a netbook?
[16:25] <mnaines> xiphos, here's a conversation I heard from two security guards one time, pay attention because it applies to network security as much as physical security:  "What kind of security do you have inside the foundry?"  "We have a state of the art security system."  "What do you need all that security for in a remote location like this?"  "It was (Raheem) Kadir's idea.  And I don't think he was worried about outside threats."  "He didn't trust his own people."  "
[16:25] <gurmit> ah ok
[16:25] <gurmit> thanks guys
[16:25] <gurmit> man ubuntu support is 100x better than windows
[16:25] <gurmit> i can find most things on google
[16:25] <br34l> xactly
[16:25] <gurmit> or here
[16:25] <Vinceman> that's very interesting, now answer MY question please
[16:26] <gurmit> i suppose because its made by the people for the people.....more of us understand itmore
[16:26] <mrwes> Vinceman, no there isn't
[16:26] <sn4k3> hi everybody
[16:26] <komputes> gurmit: I still don't understand what the issue was but if the disk has a problem you can run fsck on it to fix any disk errors
[16:26] <gurmit> Q- can you backup an image of your current ubuntu (with all its settings) like you can in windows
[16:27] <dennispudwill> I'm new to linux and need some help installing ubuntu on netbook can anyone help me?
[16:27] <cfedde> gurmit: sure.
[16:27] <verp0ler_> hi
[16:27] <Halitech> Vinceman, only thing I can think of that would get you close would be to delete all the config files for all the programs you have installed which would set you at the program defaults but unless you know what you've installed, no way to automagically set it back
[16:27] <verp0ler_> what is the name of the german ubuntu channel?
[16:27] <Austad> dennispudwill install vmware
[16:27] <Austad> if you have no idea about linux
[16:28] <legend2440> !de
[16:28] <gurmit> cfedde how?
[16:28] <Vinceman> Halitech, darn
[16:28] <gurmit> komputes, ok thank you
[16:28] <Halitech> gurmit, you can use something like remastersys to create a bootable restore dvd/cd
[16:28] <gurmit> ah ok
[16:28] <Halitech> Vinceman, you can look in Synaptic and go to history and see what you've installed and when
[16:28] <gurmit> ill research into that
[16:28] <komputes> gurmit: /home is really all you need to backup unless you run many servers
[16:28] <gurmit> yeh true
[16:29] <wizztjh> hey , we are doing a open source event in malaysia! Need some help to get support from open source initiatuve , do anyone got their email?
[16:29] <gurmit> but the thing is, i have a lot of apps and codecs
[16:29] <gurmit> its a pain tryin to remember what i had installed
[16:29] <dennispudwill> can I install that directly to my netbook or do I need to put it on my external hard drive
[16:29] <Hulk_Hodn> hello
[16:29] <Hulk_Hodn> I have a strange problem i just updated Ubuntu btw. Kubuntu but now i can't get the ATI drivers working :/
[16:29] <Halitech> gurmit, do you have a dvd burner?
[16:29] <Halitech> Hulk_Hodn, what video card?
[16:29] <gurmit> no
[16:30] <Hulk_Hodn> x800
[16:30] <gurmit> i was hoping i could back it up onto usb
[16:30] <gurmit> im using an eee pc
[16:30] <dennispudwill> Austud:  Do I need to install directly to my netbook or use and external hard drive
[16:30] <Halitech> Hulk_Hodn, you won't be able to do the restricted ati drivers, ati dropped support http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Legacy/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx?type=2.4.1&product=<IP_ADDRESS>.17&lang=English
[16:30] <mrwes> dennispudwill, here is a great web site for resources on installation: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/
[16:31] <kevdog> Is it necessary to compile gstreamer--plugins-bad to make this thing work?  I'm working all from source code!
[16:31] <Hulk_Hodn> so i think i can't us the newer official drivers but i'm not sure
[16:31] <Halitech> gurmit, not sure if remastersys has an option to create it on a usb drive or not
[16:31] <Hulk_Hodn> hmm okay stupid ati !?
[16:31] <ShapeShifter499> hi
[16:31] <gurmit> halitech, ah ok
[16:31] <GPL> Where can i find, a documentation for Compiz Desktop Effects, i am having problems using Desktop Cube + Rotate Cube , effect :(
[16:31] <Jontafk> GPL: I suppose you googled?
[16:32] <Halitech> Hulk_Hodn, its not just ati, xorg made changes at the same time that prevent the ati 9.3 drivers from working
[16:32] <Jontafk> Then there are probably manpages
[16:32] <gurmit> gpl]
[16:32] <GPL> Jontafk: Yes i tried googling, and searching in Ubuntu forums, already
[16:32] <gurmit> wots the problem
[16:32] <Hulk_Hodn> well is there any other way to get a bit 3d accleration
[16:32] <gurmit> im a linux noob but i know a little
[16:32] <GPL> gurmit : when i press Ctrl + Alt + Down, the Desktop Cube doesnt comes :(
[16:32] <Halitech> Hulk_Hodn, I think the radeon and radeonhd drivers should still work
[16:33] <Vinceman> this ZOO
[16:33] <gurmit> GPL hold down the scroll mouse button and move your mouse
[16:33] <Hulk_Hodn> or can i go back to 8.04 (sorry i'm not so used to Ubuntu :) )
[16:33] <ShapeShifter499> can I install ubuntu packages on debian and vica-versa?
[16:34] <GPL> gurmit , nothing happens
[16:34] <gurmit> did you resolve the conflicts
[16:34] <komputes> gurmit: I have a simple solution to backup the name of the apps you have installed and then automatically reinstall them when you recover. since the config file are in /home that's all you need to backup
[16:34] <gurmit> when selecting the cube and rotation
[16:34] <ShapeShifter499> ?
[16:34] <GPL> gurmit: Yes, i always resolve the conflicts ;)
[16:35] <gurmit> komputes - ah yeh..they are hidden files/folders right?
[16:35] <komputes> gurmit: exactly
[16:36] <gurmit> im still trying to figure out how i can delete the recovery partition from the UNR desktop
[16:36] <gurmit> and from ubuntu as a whole
[16:36] <komputes> gurmit: first command you do on the computer you want to back up
[16:36] <komputes> gurmit: dpkg --get-selections > dpkg.selection
[16:36] <gurmit> not delete (hide)
[16:36] <komputes> dpkg.selection is the file with all the installed packages - be sure to back that up
[16:36] <gurmit> komputes, what does that do
[16:36] <komputes> gurmit: it write a list of installed packages to a file
[16:37] <Halitech> Hulk_Hodn, yes you can reinstall 8.04
[16:37] <Halitech> ShapeShifter499, no you can't
[16:37] <ShapeShifter499> why?
[16:37] <Halitech> ShapeShifter499, differences in versions
[16:37] <gurmit> komputes thats better than looking at config files lol
[16:37] <komputes> gurmit: then when you want to restore, you just need to run: dpkg --set-selections < dpkg.selection ; apt-get dselect-upgrade
[16:37] <Hulk_Hodn> i guess i need to backup important files myself
[16:38] <twobitsprite> I am running the proprietary ATI driver from the repo in Jaunty... whenever I run a program which uses 3d rendering, I get randomly flickering black horizonrtal bars....
[16:38] <twobitsprite> anyone else get that?
[16:38] <Halitech> ShapeShifter499, actually, shouldn't say you can't, you can but I won't be responible for your system crashing if you do
[16:38] <komputes> gurmit: all of these commands as root or prefixed with sudo
[16:38] <ShapeShifter499> ok
[16:38] <komputes> gurmit: I also have a simple article I wrote on how to reinstall ubuntu while preserving /home
[16:39] <digital1> Un fulmine ha fatto andare via la corrente.....e ubuntu non mi parte piu' neanche in recovery mode..... che posso fare?
[16:39] <gurmit> komputes thats great, but the apps will still have to be reintalled
[16:39] <stefg> !it | digital1
[16:39] <komputes> gurmit: exactly, but with their versions changing every 6 months you have to do that often anyway
[16:40] <komputes> gurmit: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/komputes/HowToUbuquityPreserveHome
[16:40] <Vinceman> ! 2.6.28-15-generic
[16:40] <komputes> gurmit: with that how to you don't need to restore home, just re-download your apps
[16:40] <ShapeShifter499> ok my new question, can I install the ubuntu netbook remix packages for ppc arch on my debian wii linux system?
[16:41] <gurmit> komputes, cn you explain that other dpkg command
[16:41] <gurmit> i understand how to do it, but no what it does
[16:41] <stefg> ShapeShifter499: you'll probably run into dependency hell
[16:41] <gurmit> quite
[16:42] <ShapeShifter499> welll
[16:42] <ShapeShifter499> I'll try
[16:42] <Sirmimer> Hello, i was wondering if i can be on more networks with pidgin?
[16:42] <stefg> ShapeShifter499: and that's (of course) neither recommended nor supported
[16:43] <ShapeShifter499> i know
[16:43] <komputes> gurmit: sure, it takes the list of packages from the file and marks them for installation
[16:43] <MaGicMaX> anyone know what the official Audacious IRC is? google doesnt seem to be leading me in the right direction, and i cant find it on their official site
[16:43] <brorjonas> When I turn on "Visual effects" on my desktop, my movie players hangs x or something when I fullscreen a movie, is this common?
[16:43] <gurmit> okkk
[16:43] <gurmit> KOOL
[16:43] <komputes> gurmit: the second command after the semicolon actually installs them
[16:43] <gurmit> wowww
[16:43] <gurmit> i wish i knew that last week
[16:43] <gurmit> bloody hell
[16:43] <gurmit> lol
[16:43] <FloodBot3> gurmit: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:44] <komputes> gurmit: all you have to do is ask :)
[16:44] <Sirmimer> komputes
[16:44] <gurmit> ok so where does it backup this file
[16:44] <komputes> Sirmimer: hi
[16:44] <drajwer> hello
[16:44] <Sirmimer> Do you know if i can be on more networks with pidgin?
[16:44] <komputes> gurmit: when you open a shell/terminal, usually you are in your home directory
[16:45] <gurmit> komputes, can i save it into a file --> back that up ...then use that file at another laptop
[16:45] <Vinceman> what is the code name for version 2.6.28-15-generic?
[16:45] <komputes> Sirmimer: what network specifically?
[16:45] <Sirmimer> Quakenet
[16:45] <stefg> !version | Vinceman
[16:45] <komputes> Sirmimer: that IRC, sure
[16:45] <Sirmimer> Gameforge or gamesourge - whatever its called, also this one that ubuntu is on
[16:45] <stefg> Vinceman: that'S jaunty , btw
[16:46] <Sirmimer> Would be cool if i could be on all 3 at the same time.
[16:46] <komputes> Sirmimer: for QN, just setup a connection to irc.quakenet.org
[16:46] <lanzelloth> so... apparently you can browse your filesystem using firefox. what's doing this? is it a firefox thing or is there some basic server running?
[16:46] <Sirmimer> Yes, but how do i do that in pidgin?
[16:46] <komputes> gurmit: you can use that file on as many computers as you want
[16:46] <user50> i have latest version of flash installed but doesnot work in firefox
[16:47] <user50> how do i  correct this problem
[16:47] <gurmit> ok
[16:47] <grawity> Sirmimer: accounts -> Manage Accounts -> Add...
[16:47] <komputes> Sirmimer: yes , that ^
[16:47] <patric> Mahlzeit! Mist, ich hab' Scheiße gebaut!!!
[16:47] <stefg> lanzelloth: there's not much difference between browsing files on a ftp server or your local file-system. so it'S a firefox builtin
[16:48] <Sirmimer> aaaa
[16:48] <Sirmimer> thanks alot =)
[16:48] <lanzelloth> stefg, ok cool
[16:48] <Sirmimer> Okay i got a last question, does anyone here know the voice program called: Mumble? (I need help with it)
[16:48] <komputes> Sirmimer: I dunno about Gameforge or gamesourge - ubuntu is on freenode, which is the server you are connected to now
[16:48] <gurmit> komputes, with the restore dpkg command, it will automatically mark the files in synaptics for download?
[16:49] <Sirmimer> I am only connected to freenode, or whatever the server is called taht ubuntu is on
[16:49] <Sirmimer> #ubuntu*
[16:49] <komputes> gurmit: in the apt list, i dunno if this is reflected in synaptic, but probably
[16:49] <gurmit> if they are already installed (i see a lot of the list are things preinstalled)...will it skip them,=?
[16:49] <JOSHUA__> tty1 respawning too fast, stopped
[16:49] <stefg> !clone | gurmit
[16:49] <komputes> Sirmimer: unless you create a second connection to quakenet, you can be on many networks at once
[16:50] <JOSHUA__> Unable to execute /sbin/getty for tty<random number here>: No such file or directory
[16:51] <gurmit> stefg thanks mate, your a star
[16:51] <gurmit> i could just use that clone command to back up what i have, incase i needed a reinstall
[16:51] <Sirmimer> komputes, you wouldnt happen to remember whats the full server of quakenet is? (seems like quakenet.org didnt work)
[16:51] <MaGicMaX> anyone know what the official Audacious IRC is? google doesnt seem to be leading me in the right direction, and i cant find it on their official site
[16:52] <komputes> gurmit: just the applications, not the configs, for that you need to backup /home
[16:52] <gurmit> i dnt mind reconfiguring
[16:52] <komputes> Sirmimer: irc.quakenet.org
[16:52] <gurmit> installing is a pain
[16:52] <gere> hi.. how can i kill the gnome power manager process? i need to cycle my battery. thanks
[16:52] <Sirmimer> okay, it worked =)
[16:52] <guest1> hi
[16:53] <komputes> gurmit: with these two solutions clone/recover+preserve /home it's very easy
[16:53] <guest1> is there somebody who knows how i can get dolby virtual speaker work in my ubuntu 9.04
[16:53] <gurmit> komputes, you know when you are reinstalling without deleting home, the principle is that you are only installing root, but doesnt root contain home?
[16:54] <gurmit> so you will hve 2 homes, 1 old one (in your seperate partition) and the new one inroot
[16:54] <komputes> gurmit: yep, it deletes all the system file and reinstalls from the CD
[16:54] <Sirmimer> Can anyone help me with a program called mumble? (The mic is not working for it)
[16:54] <komputes> gurmit: no if you use the same username it will use the old fiolder
[16:54] <slide> Anyone know of a relatively cheap (about $10/month) host I can manage my own server? I don't need much bandwidth and not much space either.
[16:54] <gurmit> ah ok gotcha
[16:54] <Halitech> gurmit, no it doesn't always, you can do a custom install and save  your home folder
[16:54] <JOSHUA__> Never mind, Ubuntu's just being Ubuntu
[16:54] <mr_lou> I seem to have gotten a problem after upgrading from v8.04 to v9.04. All upload streams fail. I can't upload anything to anywhere. :-/  Any ideas?
[16:55] <gurmit> so to save my apps i need to 1.use clone command, 2.backup/dont delete home .....thus when doing  reinstall without deleting home, all i need to do is the clone command ??
[16:56] <guest1> hi.. is there somebody who knows how i can get dolby virtual speaker work in my ubuntu 9.04
[16:56] <akonito> buenas tardes
[16:56] <mrwes> slide, dydns.org is free dns service
[16:56] <akonito> poseo varios problemas la verdad, he instalado el emesene crazy pero no me funciona la recepcion de we am. alguien tiene una idea de como solucionarlo?

[16:57] <mrwes> slide, ahh ic
[16:57] <guest1> nobody who knows something about dolby virtual speaker??
[16:58] <Rubik_> I have downloaded 9.04 and burned it onto 2 different CDR's and installing was a problem. I also had one of the free CD's that came with magazine and tried that, same problem. I tried this on 3 different PC's, all ended up with failed installation. Then a buddy of mine informed me he had faced the same thing wasting 3 CDR's. Incidently, i burned the same image onto a DVD and was able to install correctly. I think there might be something wrong with the ima
[16:58] <Rubik_> ge burning onto CDR's.
[16:59] <JOSHUA__> Yes! I've successfully blacklisted those damn drivers. Thanks much for all your help, guys.
[16:59] <gurmit> komputes, also when running the clone restore command, what exactlu happens
[16:59] <gurmit> !automate
[17:00] <mrwes> Rubik_, did you run 'check CD' option before installing?
[17:00] <gurmit> !cloning
[17:00] <JOSHUA__> !?
[17:00] <JOSHUA__> aww, ubottu != nolyc
[17:00] <Rubik_> no i didn't, but surely this cannot be pure coincidence i don't think.
[17:01] <Halitech> Rubik_, can you successfully burn anything to cd and have it work?
[17:01] <gere> hi.. how can i kill the gnome power manager process? i need to cycle my battery. thanks
[17:01] <Rubik_> my burner and cd's are fine
[17:01] <Rubik_> someone ought to test it
[17:01] <Rubik_> download the image and burn it onto CD and try to install it
[17:02] <Syrtha> want to remove the laptop display from xorg and configure it with my CRT monitor but cant find a way.
[17:02] <mrwes> Rubik_, you d/l it from the official site? I've used that iso myself without issues
[17:02] <mrwes> many times :)
[17:02] <Rubik_> yes it's official
[17:02] <guest1> hi, can somebody tell my how to get "dolby" virtual speaker? .. thank you
[17:02] <Rubik_> you put it onto CD ? not dvd or not mounting the iso
[17:02] <mrwes> Rubik_, did you check the md5sum?

[17:02] <Guest88545> hello everybody ... is there a way to download rapidshare free account files by using wget?

[17:03] <Rubik_> but i put it onto DVD and it's fine, plus my buddy downloaded himself and had the same problem
[17:03] <guest1> thanks for your help :-(
[17:03] <Rubik_> oh well, just thought i'd mention it , that's all
[17:03] <mrwes> ChaoticXSinZ, mediaubuntu has ffmpeg
[17:04] <ChaoticXSinZ> mrwes: Not for jaunty.

[17:08] <mrwes> osotogari, I'm not a visual effects user, I prefer the quick desktop I get without it
[17:08] <osotogari> @ mrwes: I like my eye candy though :P Ah well, I suppose turning it off is less annoying
[17:09] <mrwes> osotogari, there used to be a tool called fusion icon that sat in your notification area, made it quick for turning compiz on and off
[17:09] <Hulk_Hodn> Xerran: in 9.04 i can't get 3d acceleration work. i want just to be sure.
[17:09] <osotogari> Its perfectly usable without the effects though, so I'm happy

[17:23] <VCoolio> gurmit: sorry? maybe understood you wrong, don't know anything about cloning apart from what they do with sheep
[17:23] <gurmit> vcoolio -- !cloning
[17:23] <gurmit> type that

[17:24] <slap> I would like to buid a file server for a network who doesn't have windows computer. Do I need Samba. Or do I need to only set up directory access?
[17:24] <Davidebian> raymondjtoth: it's a dream. dns servers are complex and need lot of resources
[17:24] <VCoolio> gurmit: what I pointed you to lists all your packages in a file so later you can use that file to install the same packages and your back in the same situation
[17:24] <MaGicMaX> after installing gnash and restarting firefox i get this msg at youtube "Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player."
[17:24] <Hulk_Hodn> yeah and i live in germany so it would be ~65 euro  :)
[17:24] <raymondjtoth> davidebbian what mean
[17:24] <VCoolio> gurmit: ok, no difference then but for method
[17:25] <gurmit> vcoolio how do u use it to install the same packages
[17:25] <mrwes> slap, windows machines on there too? If so, use Samba, otherwise just use nfs
[17:25] <Akranis> Question: I
[17:25] <raymondjtoth> davidebian canb i run my own if so how do i?
[17:25] <TriMe> anyone live in Australia and got 2x 512 DDR PC2100 Sticks of ram they wanna Sell?
[17:25] <kitche> MaGicMaX: gnash does not work with youtube really it might but gnash does not support the latest flashes fully yet
[17:25] <stefg> slap: the traditional unix networking is nfs ... faster than sambe, easier to setup
[17:25] <gurmit> does it list the packages for install in synaptics
[17:25] <VCoolio> gurmit: it's in the link: cat file > dpkg --set-selections
[17:25] <gurmit> yeh vcoolio what does that do
[17:25] <Davidebian> raymondjtoth: performance may not be a problem with due performance. but it hard to set up sure
[17:26] <gurmit> How does it restore?
[17:26] <slap> so I need to mount my drive with nfs?
[17:26] <Davidebian> raymondjtoth: and i've not the needed knowledge!
[17:26] <VCoolio> gurmit: like when in synaptic you right click and set to be installed; then you hit apply but there is a command for that too
[17:26] <raymondjtoth> davideb o ok speed dont cat want to try ti set it up any good ways to
[17:26] <Akranis> *Question: I'm thinking about securing some of my more important data. Like documents, music and things generally found in the /home dir. Would it be better to back it up or to use raid. I'm not terribly familiar with either of these
[17:26] <raymondjtoth> any one?

[17:26] <MaGicMaX> kitche: is there anyway to get youtube working?
[17:26] <mutenewt> why would netmanager show 2 wireless networks but iwlist scan only 1?
[17:26] <gurmit> OK, so when you "restore", it marks all the packages for install - and you just click "apply"
[17:26] <gurmit> ?
[17:26] <thiebaude> !flash
[17:26] <bruenig> networkmanager is known to be awful

[17:27] <scorpion_army> where can i get a Free Psy?
[17:27] <slap> stefg perfect. Thanks
[17:27] <MaGicMaX> kitche: i dont see the gnash plugin in firefox plugins page, should it be added automatically?
[17:27] <raymondjtoth> any one?
[17:27] <xangua> MaGicMaX: hten restart fx
[17:27] <mutenewt> bruenig: wicd also sees the second network
[17:28] <VCoolio> gurmit: maybe you can also import in synaptic, I was explaning the command, stick to gui or cli; sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade == "apply" in synaptic
[17:28] <stefg> slap https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/network-file-system.html is the official docu
[17:28] <MaGicMaX> xangua: i did that already

[17:28] <Chris220> Is there a way to turn off the pcspkr alerts on Ubuntu 9.04?
[17:29] <Chris220> I remember something about blacklisting it somewhere in 8.10
[17:29] <marsha> hello!  In Ubuntu 8.10, how do I add a folder to the "places" menu
[17:29] <mutenewt> the second network exists, iwlist scan just doesnt find it.
[17:29] <MaGicMaX> is there another browser that does better with flash then FF?
[17:29] <Hulk_Hodn> oh unfortuantly newegg don't deliver ot europe :(
[17:29] <vock> Noob question, but how do you know when to use sh <executable> and when to use ./<executable> when trying to run programs?
[17:30] <raymondjtoth> !browser
[17:30] <maco> vock: you can only do ./ when its executable, but you can use "sh" or "bash" even when it hasn't been chmod +x'd
[17:30] <marsha> In Ubuntu 8.10, is it possible to add another folder to the "places" menu
[17:30] <maco> vock: note that not all scripts will run with sh (dash). some actually require bash. ./ will (hopefully) get it right since it should say which it needs at the top
[17:31] <lloyd_> Hi, I created a seperate /boot/ partition and whenever I need to do a new update, I always run out of space.  Does ubuntu not delete old vm-linuz and it's other files automaticaly when it upgrades<
[17:31] <MaGicMaX> whats better, opera or midori?
[17:31] <vock> maco: So just try one or the other usually?
[17:32] <maco> vock: bash should always work. dash is smaller so it wont recognize some of the bash features
[17:32] <raymondjtoth> any one?
[17:32] <maco> vock: ive never really *seen* anyone distribute a ksh or tcsh script, so i dont think you need to worry about those...
[17:32] <Davidebian> maco : why a script shulden't start with a simple ./xxx ?
[17:32] <maco> Davidebian: what?
[17:32] <Cell-0-Type> hhhhhhh
[17:32] <ectospasm> maco: some organizations use ksh exclusively, it's still being actively maintained
[17:33] <ectospasm> ...dunno about tcsh
[17:33] <maco> ectospasm: i know it is. i work with the guy that did ksh93 ;)
[17:33] <Davidebian> maco: there are 2 ways: ./script and . script
[17:33] <ectospasm> maco: heh
[17:33] <Davidebian> maco : they always work
[17:33] <ectospasm> although for maximum portability you need to use Bourne (/bin/sh)
[17:33] <Sirmimer> ARg i just closed pidgin
[17:33] <maco> ectospasm: but im saying usually if someone's distributing  a script, theyll make it either sh or bash compatible since ksh isnt always installed on everything
[17:33] <Sirmimer> and i cant find the person who was helping me -.-
[17:33] <maco> Davidebian: . is the same as source though
[17:33] <ectospasm> maco: true enough
[17:34] <vock> maco: thanks
[17:34] <Sirmimer> Anyone know how to make auto connects/auth's with pidgin?
[17:34] <ectospasm> Sirmimer: what protocol?
[17:34] <raymondjtoth> !en
[17:34] <lloyd_> Hi, I created a seperate /boot/ partition and whenever I need to do a new update, I always run out of space.  Does ubuntu not delete old vm-linuz and it's other files automaticaly when it upgrades<
[17:34] <Davidebian> maco : sure .. but no need to type sh before !
[17:34] <ectospasm> lloyd_: no, I don't believe so
[17:35] <scotto> I'm having trouble with x and xconfig
[17:35] <ectospasm> lloyd_: no real need for /boot to be on a separate partition any more
[17:35] <scotto> it won't detect and resolution over 640x480
[17:35] <ectospasm> !ask
[17:35] <maco> Davidebian: does source / . work even when you dont chmod +x?
[17:35] <scotto> i've already tried the ubuntu wiki page
[17:35] <Sirmimer> ectospasm, protocol, what you mean?
[17:35] <maco> ectospasm: unless you use encrypted lvm ;)
[17:35] <scotto> and it was either over my head or didn't help
[17:35] <ectospasm> Sirmimer: AIM, Y!M, MSN, IRC, etc.
[17:36] <nownot> using the alternate cd i dont see the "configure software raid" option
[17:36] <mnaines> ectospasm, I generally have more than one hard drive...I use a small (120 or 150 gigabyte) drive as the boot drive with a larger (>500GB) drive as extra storage
[17:36] <nownot> where is it?
[17:36] <scotto> by using fix graphics in recovery boot i got it up to 800x600
[17:36] <ectospasm> mnaines: 120GB isn't small
[17:36] <vock> thanks everyone, was informative to listen to that
[17:36] <Davidebian> maco: like this: "source ./script" ??
[17:36] <maco> mnaines: i dont think you need that many gigs for boot...
[17:36] <Sirmimer> IRc
[17:36] <scotto> but i can't edit anything in the xconfig
[17:36] <Sirmimer> irc**
[17:36] <scotto> it tells me to run a command that puts it back to the old config
[17:36] <grim76> Have a strange issue on a remote system that I help support.  We are getting messages in /var/log/auth.log they are for a valid user of the system, but that user is not logged in when the messages are showing up.  http://pastebin.com/d2fc8342e
[17:36] <maco> Davidebian: source doesnt require ./ it can just be "source script" just like you said before ". script" but im wondering if it needs to be exectuable to do that
[17:37] <mnaines> maco, 150GB is overkill for any Linux distro, but you see my point that you can get away with a small drive as the boot drive
[17:37] <ectospasm> Sirmimer: I don't use Pidgin for IRC, so I can't help there
[17:37] <scotto> but then my monitor tells me its out of range(refresh rate)
[17:37] <Sirmimer> arg
[17:37] <ectospasm> I s'pose there's a way to autojoin, lemme see if I can figure it out
[17:37] <nownot> running 9.04 and dont see configure software raid anywhere
[17:38] <thiebaude> !raid
[17:38] <animesh> hi

[17:38] <animesh> ya
[17:38] <lloyd_> ectospasm: I already made it a seperate partition
[17:38] <thiebaude> animesh, what is your question?
[17:38] <mnaines> raymondjtoth, what problem are you having?
[17:38] <Davidebian> maco: you know ... I don't know! source should simply place the file inside the main script, like a preprocessor. about execution permission, i'm wondering i don't know!!!
[17:39] <radioman-lt> ubuntu rocks ;}
[17:39] <ectospasm> lloyd_: why?
[17:39] <bastidrazor> mnaines, i must be murdering the overkill.. i have 1.5TB and a 320GB drive dedicated to linux

[17:40] <ectospasm> Sirmimer: so, I can join the channel (traius is me), but I can't seem to figure out how to autojoin.  Hold on a sec...
[17:40] <maco> animesh: there is no linux version of the gtalk client, but the included IM client, pidgin, can handle google talk just fine
[17:40] <xangua> animesh: pidgin can connect to gmail , pidgin is the default in ubuntu (or at least was)
[17:40] <MTeck> maco: in 9.10 there is
[17:40] <MTeck> !info gtalk

[17:53] <Austad> ibuclaw :D
[17:53] <br34l> matthias91: geh nach #ubuntu-de
[17:53] <Austad> I just configured every thing.
[17:53] <Austad> The dns, apache, sql
[17:53] <Austad> bridged the vm with host.
[17:53] <matthias91> hi xD     i am new here xDD              where did you all come from ^^ ?
[17:53] <Austad> and it's so awesome!
[17:53] <phreck> ok im looking for a media center app to play from my collection of pre recorded media. MythTv is out of the question, what else is there.
[17:53] <Austad> all things in one day.
[17:53] <FloodBot3> Austad: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:53] <Austad> thanks to you guys!
[17:54] <istvan> ok, let me try this again from xchat: I set up a VM in virtual box, installed ubuntu server edition, installed apache2 and php5 - however when I run ifconfig, copy the address, and go to that IP from another machine on the network it can't connect - what am I missing?
[17:54] <ibuclaw> matthias91, depends how far back you want to go ...
[17:54] <Austad> IdleOne, now i'm working on emails. I can't send email from ubuntu
[17:54] <Austad> mailx -s<EMAIL_ADDRESS>test
[17:54] <Austad> and when I checked the logs
[17:54] <Rabbitbunny> istvan: Look into Ebox. It's like a control panel for servers.
[17:54] <Austad> -/var/log/mail.og
[17:54] <Austad> -/var/log/mail.log
[17:54] <Austad> there is no error.
[17:54] <FloodBot3> Austad: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:55] <Austad> but I couldn't receive the email.
[17:55] <grawity> Austad: Do you have a SMTP server installed?
[17:55] <quitte> hi. how do i use a ps2 mouse in jaunty?
[17:55] <IdleOne> Austad: ask the question to the channel. I don't know the answer

[17:55] <grawity> Austad: That is a mail client, not server.
[17:55] <fahadsadah> quitte: step 2) no step two

[17:55] <grawity> fahadsadah: Ask Cobi
[17:55] <stefg> istvan: you're missing  a good understanding of virtualbox' network modes... there's host-NAT, bridged or host-only networking. you'll probably want bridged
[17:56] <nmvictor> whenever a package is installing using dpkg, i get this msg, dpkg: serious warning: files list for package 'dialog' missing, assuming package has no files currently installed.Whas the problem and how do i fix this?

[18:02] <fahadsadah> ThRixXx: Sorry, http://www.techmetica.com/howto/how-to-enable-syntax-highlighting-in-gedit/
[18:02] <Davidebian> raymondjtoth: may be bios related. get a look

[18:02] <MTeck> !karmic | raymondjtoth
[18:02] <raymondjtoth> mtech i meant 9.04 i just got up also
[18:02] <ThRixXx> Thanks

[18:02] <fahadsadah> raymondjtoth: No.
[18:02] <Iyunkateus> !gedit
[18:03] <tommy_the-dragon> fadhadsadah: i was wondering if anyone here could help me or knew where i should go to get help
[18:03] <fahadsadah> tommy_the-dragon: What do you want to do?
[18:04] <tommy_the-dragon> fadhadsadah: when i start arpspoof i dont want it to resolve every dns request to my webserver
[18:04] <aksci> Iyunkateus: was that for me?
[18:04] <tommy_the-dragon> fadhadsadah: which it keeps doing now
[18:05] <simran> How can i hide a particular partition from Ubuntu - so it doesnt load it...?
[18:05] <MTeck> tommy_the-dragon: this is the place - but it's a pretty uncommon question
[18:05] <fahadsadah> tommy_the-dragon: Why are you using arpspoof?
[18:05] <fahadsadah> simran: Remove it from /etc/fstab
[18:05] <MTeck> simran: remove it from /etc/fstab
[18:05] <Iyunkateus> aksci: No, I just forgot the name of emacs, and I knew it was on that list
[18:05] <tommy_the-dragon> fadhadsadah: learning about it
[18:06] <simran> mteck it isnt listed in fstab
[18:06] <fahadsadah> tommy_the-dragon: Please describe your network?
[18:06] <simran> only the linux paritions are listed
[18:06] <Iyunkateus> aksci: I just didn't remember the name of emacs, and I knew it was in that list

[18:08] <MTeck> simran: and what fahadsadah asked for
[18:08] <MatBoy> is there a decent way to remove swfdec ? when I want to remove it, it wants to remove whole gnome :S
[18:08] <Iyunkateus> I have him in Google Talk, so if you need more information, I can tell him
[18:08] <tommy_the-dragon> fadhadsadah: all the computers except my dev server and this computer are on xp, mine are on ubuntu and server edition respectively
[18:08] <MTeck> digital8080: 9.04 ?
[18:08] <tommy_the-dragon> fadhadsadah: all are connected to a netgear router
[18:08] <digital8080> yes
[18:09] <MTeck> digital8080: sounds like a bug - could you report it?
[18:09] <fahadsadah> tommy_the-dragon: Please use dig to lookup a non-webserver IP, and pastebin the output?

[18:09] <User5832> hello all, need some help to setup a rt2500 pcmcia wireless card
[18:09] <digital8080> Mteck: what you mean?

[18:10] <MTeck> digital8080: bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu
[18:10] <MatBoy> it seems that swfdoc is too much integrated into 9.04... I want to use the flashplayer itself
[18:10] <MatBoy> *swfdec
[18:10] <User5832> yeah i know but its not working
[18:10] <fahadsadah> MatBoy: Are you using aptitude or apt-get?
[18:10] <istvan> "With VirtualBox 2.1.0 you simply select host networking and select your network card (eth0 , wlan0, etc) from the pull down list.
[18:10] <istvan> No need to manually bridge your network card, no need for a tap, although you can use these devices if you wish." -- this is what I did, but still not connecting to the ip
[18:10] <ubuntu-user-b2> hello

[18:11] <User5832> at this point i have a wlan0 a wlan0:avahi and a wmaster0. that cant be good
[18:11] <MTeck> istvan: #vbox

[18:11] <J2daosh> i need help geting grub back on my laptop now that i reinstalled windows
[18:11] <ubuntu-user-b2> can I get some help please with an onboard card reader?
[18:11] <fahadsadah> Do one of those lookups, with dig, and pastebin the output.
[18:11] <Iyunkateus> A friend of mine says that he's having trouble playing videos...they're really slow, but they were just fine about three days ago. I have him on Google Talk right now, so if you need more information just tell me and I can relay it to him
[18:11] <tommy_the-dragon> fadhadsadah: when i have my arpspoofer running

[18:11] <ubuntu-user-b2> I have esprimo mobile v6545
[18:11] <fahadsadah> J2daosh: grub-install.
[18:11] <fahadsadah> tommy_the-dragon: Yes.
[18:11] <gurmit> fahadshah, mtek --> fdisk = http://paste.ubuntu.com/258174/
[18:12] <J2daosh> grub-install will fix?
[18:12] <fahadsadah> Yes
[18:12] <J2daosh> that would be soooo nice
[18:12] <tommy_the-dragon> fadhadsadah: typing an ip would work
[18:12] <MTeck> Iyunkateus: have him run "top" pastebin the output
[18:12] <ubuntu-user-b2> please guys
[18:12] <digital8080> MTeck: could you help me instead?
[18:12] <tommy_the-dragon> fadhadsadah: its dns thats messing up
[18:12] <fahadsadah> tommy_the-dragon: Dig is a program to run DNS lookups.
[18:13] <MatBoy> fahadsadah: should work on the package only ?
[18:13] <J2daosh> so from the live disc, i open a console and type in grub-install?
[18:13] <tommy_the-dragon> fadhadsadah: sorry i dont know much about networking
[18:13] <MTeck> digital8080: if it's a bug - then you want the experts - it's out of my realm
[18:13] <Xerran> How do you watch Quicktime video in Ubuntu?
[18:13] <tommy_the-dragon> fadhadsadah: ill look into dig, brb

[18:13] <dotblank> hey is http://linux.com/ down?
[18:13] <MatBoy> fahadsadah: apt-get does also

[18:20] <J2daosh> root, setup?
[18:20] <MTeck> Mech0z: nifty idea, but I think an app like that would be just insanely massive
[18:20] <digital8080> MTeck: how to assure that the problem will be fixed?

[18:21] <melchi> Hey does Ubuntu run on the BeagleBoard ARM ?
[18:21] <J2daosh> fahadsadah: grub-install? or the link you gave me telling me how to modify it?
[18:21] <fahadsadah> melchi: #ubuntu-arm will answer that
[18:21] <MTeck> digital8080: nothing will be done if you just site here and ask the some thing - you need to find people that know how to track down things like this - you do that by filing a bug or knowing exactly who you need to talk to
[18:22] <fahadsadah> J2daosh: The link I gave you.
[18:22] <warlock_handler> auto-identify!
[18:22] <MatBoy> fahadsadah: mhh... it still wants to remove gnome
[18:22] <melchi> fahadsadah: No one is there  :(

[18:24] <fahadsadah> SealedWithAKiss: Windows games will never work smoothly in WINE/cedega.

[18:24] <SealedWithAKiss> fahadsadah, it's running under Windows.
[18:24] <MTeck> melchi: no idea about it further, sorry. I don't even really know what ARM is :P
[18:24] <fahadsadah> Then why ask #ubuntu?
[18:24] <SealedWithAKiss> fahadsadah, because I'm using Ubuntu now, and you guys in here may be able to tell me why.
[18:25] <MatBoy> mhh... this swfdec is really annoying
[18:25] <MTeck> fahadsadah: #winehq
[18:25] <melchi> MTeck: lol thanks anyways.... and FYI ARM stands for advanced RISC machine

[18:29] <Jonta> Hm, weird
[18:29] <MTeck> istvan: aptitude search libcurl - there should be an exact package you need listed
[18:29] <J2daosh> SealedWithAKiss: thats because 4gigs o ram isn't recognized by 32 bit operating systems
[18:29] <MTeck> fahadsadah: more insentive to listen to it ;)

[18:50] <test123> hi guys
[18:50] <test123> whats best irc cleint for ubuntu ?
[18:50] <shreymech> http://paste.ubuntu.com/258195/ check it prince
[18:50] <ttl-> i think there is a problem with fetchmail in jaunty
[18:50] <swayric> This started in the aftermath of an unclean removal of ubuntu 9.04
[18:50] <SealedWithAKiss> I have installed 4GB of RAM, why does Linux say that I only have 3.2GB?
[18:50] <IdleOne> !irc
[18:50] <MTeck> swayric: any reason you're over a year behind the latest?
[18:50] <RHorse> !best > test123
[18:50] <mnaines1> SealedWithAKiss, are you using a 32-bit version?
[18:50] <shreymech> http://paste.ubuntu.com/258195/ check it prince_jammys
[18:50] <MTeck> swayric: 7.10 is no longer supported
[18:50] <prince_jammys> shreymech: well, it looks like you did what they said. and sourcing .bashrc gave no errors.
[18:51] <test123> dont see here anything
[18:51] <SealedWithAKiss> mnaines1, I don't know how do I tell?
[18:51] <mnaines1> SealedWithAKiss: 32-bit operating systems do that...
[18:51] <mnaines1> SealedWithAKiss: I use a 64-bit version of Ubuntu and I have 4GB of RAM, but Ubuntu only sees 3.8GB
[18:51] <swayric> MTeck: Ubuntu Gutsy has support OOB for WG311v2 wireless card. I couldn't get it working in Jaunty so I removed it then decided I'd put on 7.10
[18:52] <lelbo> hi
[18:52] <shreymech> prince_jammys,  what mistake i did in configuring enviornment
[18:52] <stercor> In Gnome system monitor there's a section called, 'Memory and Swap History'.  It reports 50.0% percent swap usage, yet parted reports no /swap partition.  What's up?
[18:52] <lelbo> i a til des francais
[18:52] <prince_jammys> shreymech: you copied that other line into your .bashrc exactly as provided, right? (with the leading dot and everything)
[18:52] <shreymech> yessss
[18:52] <name> how can i make my fn key become the ctrl key
[18:52] <shreymech> prince_jammys: yess
[18:52] <ctmjr> !fr | lelbo
[18:52] <lelbo> qui peu me donner quel astuc sious back track
[18:53] <swayric> MTeck: I followed guides, from wicd.sourceforge.net which didn't seem to go anywhere so I ditched 9.04 for the ver giving support
[18:53] <shreymech> prince_jammys: shud i paste my .bashrc content after i copied that line...????

[18:53] <test123> i only see thisone here
[18:54] <MTeck> test123: yes - /join #irssi
[18:54] <ttl-> so i thinks there is something wrong with the fetchmail in jaunty
[18:54] <test123> and how to switch between tem ?
[18:54] <MTeck> test123: alt+left/right to change
[18:54] <ubuntistas> how can i change in openoffice word the way that when i put some fonts in the bottom with lines and colour in the default style of writing that's annoing any clue?
[18:54] <test123> ah okay nice
[18:54] <prince_jammys> shreymech: the last line is sourcing another file (that's what the dot does) that likely sets certain environment variables. if you had miscopied the line, you'd likely get an error from bash when you source ~/.bashrc
[18:55] <funkja> can anyone give me some pointers on how to figure out why my dvd drive won't work on my Dell Vostro 1400? (It will open before ubuntu starts up, but won't open once ubuntu starts)
[18:55] <SealedWithAKiss> Would installing a 64-bit version of Ubuntu require a fresh OS installation?
[18:55] <MTeck> funkja: does the command "eject" work?
[18:56] <mnaines1> SealedWithAKiss: yes, it would
[18:56] <MTeck> SealedWithAKiss: ys
[18:56] <adalal> SealedWithAKiss: yes...
[18:56] <funkja> MTeck: No , it says "tried to use `/dev/scd0' as device name but it is no block device"
[18:56] <stercor> What about KSplice?
[18:56] <mtlife> why would it? thought it was only kernel?
[18:56] <SealedWithAKiss> mnaines1, where did that.8GB go then?
[18:56] <RHorse> I use bitchx, which is like an old version of irssi.
[18:56] <MTeck> funkja: what ubuntu version?
[18:57] <funkja> 9.04
[18:57] <shreymech> prince_jammys: http://paste.ubuntu.com/258197/ check at lastline
[18:57] <pisse> I'm trying to get the apache mod rewrite to work on my ubuntu machine. But it only works when I have the document root at /var/www.. I want it to be in my home folder.. is there anything wrong with permissions or something? Maybe I need to config something more than apache2.conf ?
[18:57] <ubuntistas> how can i change in openoffice word the way that when i put some fonts in the bottom with lines and colour in the default style of writing that's annoing any clue?
[18:57] <MTeck> funkja: hrm - try in #ubuntu-bugs and see if they can figure out why. I'm not sure how to track it down - otherwise you could file a bug on it
[18:57] <stercor> I read about KSplice in Linux Journal.  It slips in a new kernel without a reboot.  http://www.ksplice.{org|com}
[18:58] <prince_jammys> shreymech: that's not your .bashrc
[18:58] <prince_jammys> shreymech: i hope ...
[18:58] <funkja> MTeck: Well, It was working before and then it stopped. I don't think it coincided with an update, but maybe.
[18:58] <stroyan> SealedWithAKiss: Many devices are memory-mapped.  They use up some of a 4GB address space so there is no address range left for mapping all of the 4GB of RAM.
[18:59] <shreymech> prince_jammys: it is the same file... they have clearly mentioned it location in procedure ..
[18:59] <shreymech> prince_jammys: did u saw that i pasted that line in the end.. is it ok..??
[18:59] <MTeck> funkja: sounds like a pretty interesting issue. I wish I knew enough to try to help you diagnose :(
[18:59] <prince_jammys> shreymech: the line is ok, but what about all that other stuff?  you put all that stuff in your .bashrc?
[19:00] <RHorse>
[19:00] <grawity> RHorse: Really?
[19:00] <prince_jammys> shreymech: do you know what .bashrc is?
[19:00] <heatmzzr> man i put 9.04 on a acer one... works pretty good, uped the ram to 2gb but thats about it... haha workin good'
[19:00] <test123> is there any chance to add an bnc to the network ?
[19:01] <prince_jammys> shreymech: .bashrc is the file sourced by your shell (bash) every time you start an  interactive session (like when you open a terminal)
[19:01] <shreymech> prince_jammys: i pasted u my full content under bashrc file
[19:01] <prince_jammys> shreymech: you only had to copy a single line to the bottom of that file.
[19:01] <twobitsprite> how do I change my windowmanager in ubuntu?
[19:01] <MTeck> test123: add a proxy to freenode?
[19:01] <test123> freenode ?
[19:01] <MTeck> heatmzzr: congrats
[19:01] <shreymech> prince_jammys: i did the same thing prince.. didn't u checked my last line
[19:02] <shreymech> prince_jammys: i pasted the same line in the last
[19:02]  * MTeck needs sleep - ttyal
[19:02] <heatmzzr> MTeck: see ya man
[19:03] <prince_jammys> shreymech: it looks like you copied much more than that.
[19:03] <prince_jammys> shreymech: what about all the other OpenFoam stuff in that file?
[19:03] <prince_jammys> and where's all the stuff that's in a normal .bashrc?
[19:03] <Yakeson_Chihiro> good day
[19:03] <J2daosh> how do i setup internet on my laptop again it used to work but then i reinstalled windows and now i got nothing
[19:03] <shreymech> prince_jammys: the other contents were already present in the bashrc file... i only copied the given line in the procedure only
[19:04] <prince_jammys> shreymech: had you ever edited .bashrc in the past?
[19:04] <J2daosh> it doesn't see wired or wireless. my interfaces has both listed, but knetwork manager cant get to either
[19:04] <Yakeson_Chihiro> i can't get the "System -> Aministration -> Login Window" Which package should i install please ? I switched from KDE to Gnome a few months ago
[19:04] <adalal> hey jus a quick question guys, is this the official irc for ubuntuforums as well?
[19:04] <swayric> If I use fdisk to delete the installation I am currently in, which problems could result of it?
[19:04] <shreymech> prince_jammys: yes once while configuring my wireless headset
[19:04] <Yakeson_Chihiro> It seems my gdm is not well installed :/
[19:04] <shreymech> prince_jammys: i think.!!
[19:06] <prince_jammys> shreymech: i think you mistyped a command along the way and copied some entire file from OpenFOam into your bashrc, replacing it.
[19:06] <swayric> 8.04 LTS is no different. doesnt detect partition table
[19:06] <prince_jammys> shreymech: If you indeed just pasted the contents of ~/.bashrc
[19:07] <Alex_____> Hi!
[19:07] <Alex_____> DCC SEND "startkeylogger" 0 0 0
[19:07] <shreymech> prince_jammys: i think now i knw where i did the mistake.... listen me carefully.. i have a file named bashrc in my openfoam folder.. and i pasted the line in that file... but in the procedure it is written that ")Update your environment variables by adding the following line to our .bashrc script"
[19:07] <J2daosh> i need to get my wired internet working, how do i do this?
[19:07] <J2daosh> is there a doc?
[19:08] <adalal> J2daosh: jus connect the cable.. doesn't that work?
[19:08] <mnaines1> Is a 32GB solid-state drive overkill for Ubuntu?
[19:08] <J2daosh> adalal: nope
[19:08] <shreymech> prince_jammys: now i need to knw that where is my .bashrc script ...??
[19:08] <prince_jammys> shreymech: heh, yes, you "bashrc script" is at ~/.bashrc  (use the ~)
[19:08] <adalal> J2daosh: i'm assuming u have NM?
[19:08] <stefg> mnaines1: i found a good use for mine :-)
[19:09] <shreymech> prince_jammys: shud i type exactly ~/.bashrc in terminal
[19:09] <shreymech> ??
[19:09] <J2daosh> adalal: knetworkmanager, yes
[19:09] <mnaines1> stefg, would Ubuntu ever use all that space?
[19:09] <adalal> right... hold on
[19:09] <ttl-> does anybody know about a fetchmail problem in jaunty the is corrupting mail attachments?
[19:09] <prince_jammys> shreymech: you should type:  gedit ~/.bashrc  and paste the line said to the bottom of THAT
[19:09] <ttl-> the = that
[19:09] <stefg> mnaines1: hardly... but think of swap (hibernation) and virtual machines
[19:10] <mnaines1> stefg, I normally allocate less than 10GB to swap
[19:10] <adalal> J2daosh: run ifconfig
[19:10] <J2daosh> did
[19:10] <J2daosh> no eth0
[19:10] <adalal> and no eth1.. ? or anythign?
[19:10] <J2daosh> nope, only lo
[19:10] <J2daosh> interfaces file has 'auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp'
[19:11] <prince_jammys> shreymech: and remove the line you copied into the 'bashrc' file that's part of OpenFoam thingy.
[19:11] <adalal> J2daosh: are the lights on ur ethernet port lighting up?
[19:11] <melkor> When I start my computer I can't switch the wifi on and off with the wifi button.
[19:11] <stefg> mnaines1: nowaday you never need more than waht you have in ram... hibernation space. But i have my /home partition on it as well (not music and vids)
[19:11] <J2daosh> yes
[19:11] <adalal> melkor: is it an HP?
[19:11] <melkor> adalal: its an asus
[19:12] <adalal> J2daosh: funny then...
[19:12] <adalal> J2daosh: what comes up when u insert ur cable and put in ifconfig?
[19:12] <stefg> mnaines1: so 32 GB is nive to have.. esp. vor virtual disks (fragmentation ain't no problem)
[19:12] <melkor> adalal: I can switch it by modifying a file or giving it rw permissions then it works ok.
[19:12] <adalal> no network interfaces relating that coms up?
[19:12] <J2daosh> nope
[19:12] <lelbo_> re
[19:13] <lelbo_> france
[19:13] <mnaines1> stefg, so for a 32GB drive, allocating around 8GB of space for the swap file and using the rest for Ubuntu would easily be overkill?
[19:13] <J2daosh> device: eth0
[19:13] <J2daosh> state:unmanaged
[19:13] <lelbo_> serveur francais
[19:14] <IdleOne> !fr
[19:14] <adalal> J2daosh: maybe it's a problem with ur modules?
[19:14]  * J2daosh shrugs
[19:15] <shreymech> prince_jammys: hey prince i did it .. but when i typed this line source ~/.bashrc .. i got this message.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/258207/
[19:15] <J2daosh> i dotn know how to make a wired connection not work
[19:15] <adalal> what card do u have?
[19:15] <J2daosh> it should just know it and go
[19:15] <adalal> J2daosh: tried ifconfig eth0 up
[19:15] <adalal> ?
[19:15] <shreymech> prince_jammys: now what to do ....??? :-(
[19:16] <stefg> mnaines1: not overkill... you can do it in 16GB as well (on a machine with 8GB ram you'll need 8GB swap), and use 8 GB for ubuntu... but that'S a bit tight. i think a 32 GB (in reality 30Gb) is just right
[19:16] <adalal> J2daosh: and does anything come up on dmesg when u insert the cable?
[19:16] <J2daosh> nope
[19:16] <dividebyzer01> what do I need to do in order to install XP after I've installed ubuntu?
[19:16] <J2daosh> ifconfig now shows eth0, but no inet address
[19:16] <IdleOne> stefg: why would anyone need 8GB swap?
[19:16] <adalal> J2daosh: reconnect the cable
[19:17] <stefg> IdleOne: to hibernate a machine with 8GB ram?
[19:17] <grawity> IdleOne: He has 8 GB RAM and wants to use suspend-to-disk?
[19:17] <J2daosh> nothing
[19:17] <IdleOne> ahh ok
[19:17] <ipazione> hi
[19:17] <adalal> J2daosh: 'lspci' and tell me which ethernet card u have
[19:17] <prince_jammys> shreymech: try editing the file mentioned after 'Warning' (with gedit), find the line that says 'compilerInstall' , and change the setting to 'System'
[19:17] <dividebyzer01> what do I need to do in order to install xp AFTER installing Ubuntu?
[19:17] <IdleOne> !dualboot
[19:18] <prince_jammys> shreymech: there's probably a line that says: compilerInstall='Something or the other'
[19:18] <mnaines1> stefg, I usually allocate 2x the RAM as the swap file...That gives me room for both hibernation and anything else the machine needs the swap space for
[19:18] <ipazione> help i have a big problem!

[19:19] <adalal> J2daosh: wait.. do u have a server install?
[19:19] <adalal> J2daosh: or ufw installed?
[19:19] <prince_jammys> shreymech: At least now you have done exactly what they said. If things don't work after this, find a troubleshooting document/page/irc channel or something for OpenFOAM.
[19:19] <J2daosh> ufw?
[19:19] <J2daosh> its not server
