[08:09] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: Okay, try one really simple thing (this is what worked for me =D) ... unplug the ethernet cable from your computer
[08:09] <Jaymac> well, then I guess you will have to go to the themer and select the new themes
[08:09] <SleepingSloth> Jaymac - is that "no, you cant run to together" ?
[08:09] <Jaymac> SleepingSloth, I VERY much doubt it
[08:09] <oxeimon3> done
[08:09] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: And then once your network manager has realized it's disconnected, plug it back in
[08:09] <chrisjs169> Maximander: it worked - thank you very much
[08:09] <Maximander> SleepingSloth: does the ATI require it;s drivers
[08:09] <Maximander> ?
[08:10] <SleepingSloth> Maximander - yes... but maybe i could use one of them with vga drivers...?
[08:10] <oxeimon3> what will happen when it realises its not connected?
[08:10] <oxeimon3> there's no response so far
[08:10] <oxeimon3> lol
[08:10] <kaptein> !version
[08:10] <ubotu> To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[08:10] <Maximander> SleepingSloth: if Xorg/kernel supports the ATI with the built in drivers (my X600 does) then i see no reason you couldn't have fglrx in there too
[08:10] <Maximander> for the nvidia
[08:10] <wabash> Anyone know where to find the dev for an audio cd?
[08:11] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: Under your network settings, select your wired network, go to preferences, change the value of the dropdown to something else and then change it back to DHCP. Then hit okay
[08:11] <KI4IKL> I have a Logitech Trackball mouse...every once in a while, the cursor locks up and wont move, and I have to restart to get it to work again.
[08:11] <Maximander> SleepingSloth: but you certainly can't (easily) have both of the propriatary drivers loaded
[08:11] <SleepingSloth> Maximander - the AGP card is a 9700 pro, and the PCI card is a 5500 fx, so it would seem to make more sense to use the ATI card if only one of them can have the prop drivers
[08:11] <amidaniel> ( really hackish .. but it wakes things up :D )
[08:11] <KI4IKL> I've already added "sw_cursor" "true" to my xorg.conf file...that was supposed to fix it.
[08:12] <SleepingSloth> Maximander - my ATi card is using fglrx at the moment.....
[08:12] <Maximander> anyone here experienced with GDM? i'm kinda stuck...
[08:12] <randy> could someone please tell me why i am getting error 1273 when im installing intel grpahics driver
[08:12] <beni> lmao why does ubntu server 6.06 installation need alsa drivers? :P
[08:12] <Newbie_Dude> OK, so I downloaded a program for Ubuntu off the internet... blah151src.tar.bz2... I then extracted it. But I open it and it's full of stuff I have no idea how to install with. :P There's a "src" folder, do I have to like... Compile it or something? (;>_<)
[08:13] <tarzeau> beni: acoustic signals can be important, even on servers
[08:13] <Maximander> SleepingSloth: i'd try the built in radeon drivers, they're working well for me at the moment (even if for un-related reasons, gdm hit the fan)
[08:13] <oxeimon3> alright, I've changed it back to dhcp now
[08:13] <oxeimon3> now I'll plus back in the cable?
[08:13] <tarzeau> beni: my firewall plays the national anthem if someone logs in
[08:13] <kaptein> Newbie_Dude: probabely ;)
[08:13] <amidaniel> Newbie_Dude: ./configure followed by make and make install
[08:13] <KI4IKL> Newbie_Dude, read the readme :)

[08:13] <beni> tarzeau: haha :) but my box wont have any output devices except the "beep-one"
[08:14] <erUSUL> Newbie_Dude: you shouldn't be compiling from sources if you are new to all of this... are you sure the programs isn't in the repositories?
[08:14] <SleepingSloth> maximander - I mean so i can make the approriate change in xorg
[08:14] <tarzeau> beni: pc speaker sucks
[08:14] <SleepingSloth> maximander *xorg.conf
[08:14] <tarzeau> beni: you can remove alsa stuff
[08:14] <amidaniel> erUSUL: Aww .. it's a good learning experience for everyone :)
[08:14] <Newbie_Dude> @Everyone: OK, I'll try to find a "in the repositories" version. If not then I'll read the readme and try to compile. xD thanks for the links too. Be back in a bit.
[08:14] <beni> tarzeau: I know, I just wondered why it's included ;)
[08:14] <Maximander> SleepingSloth: my conf for "Device" is Driver "ati"
[08:14] <tarzeau> beni: ask its developers
[08:15] <beni> x)
[08:15] <erUSUL> Newbie_Dude: what program are you trying to install?

[08:16] <Maximander> anyone have any ideas about gdm not starting? "Cannot safely open /var/lib/gdm/:0/Xauth"
[08:16] <SleepingSloth> Maximander - I have a feeling desktop-effects and beryl etc didnt like the 9700pro with the built in driver, if i remember right... i dont think its as well supported as the X range - but I could try that, alongside the 5500 with nvidia-glx and see where that takes me - I'm not really a gamer any more....

[08:27] <oxeimon3> amidaniel: bah. Well, I really appreciate your help :-D
[08:27] <amidaniel> This is, in any case, a quite common problem -- I was able to fix it for myself, but the way I fixed it didn't work for you apparently :)
[08:27] <amidaniel> Sorry :)
[08:27] <amidaniel> And good luck

[08:27] <skollie> oxeimon3: not sure how far you got with amidaniel, but have you determibed whether you have an ip address?
[08:28] <glencore> Maximander: say the problem ;)
[08:28] <oxeimon3> well, I don't really know what you mean by an ip address... ifconfig gives me an "HWaddr 00:19:21:64:3A:C5"
[08:28] <oxeimon3> now that's my mac address right?
[08:28] <Shin_Gouki> HOW do i install WLaN drivers?

[08:30] <skollie> oxeimon3: what about for just the eth0 ?
[08:30] <oxeimon3> though, there's no such line under "eth0"
[08:30] <Hausberg> I have problem evdev loading modules for my dvb cards in haphazard order - how can I change this
[08:30] <oxeimon3> what is "eth0:avah"?
[08:30] <user_> Jaymac:  for C++ programing I use anjuta but I don't know how to bite it...may you propose any other program?
[08:30] <doodoo> with which software it is is possible to configure my cisco router?
[08:30] <Jaymac> you don't know how to "bite" it?

[08:32] <bruenig> oxeimon3, ifconfig you mean
[08:32] <doodoo> i find an "hyper terminal" for ubuntu?
[08:32] <randy> jaymac could u help me install my intel drivers

[08:32] <oxeimon3> it just says "domain dartmouth.edu"

[08:33] <user_> Jaymac: I have tutorial only for Visual C++ microsoft program to programing in C++
[08:33] <bruenig> pi3, the reason it  wouldn't remove I because a prerm or postrm script failed. What that command does is say to ignore whether those scripts failed and keep going
[08:33] <pi3> bruenig: I still have the problem, let me pastebin it
[08:33] <pi3> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29682/
[08:33] <glencore> Maximander: what are you trying to do?
[08:34] <bruenig> systemd0wn, I would imagine it uses iwconfig to determine the ssid, then iwconfig to configure the card and then dhclient to acquire an ip, that is how I would do it at least. I know that is how wifi-radar does it, I have never used nm-applet though
[08:34] <skollie> oxeimon3: try adding the following line at the end of /etc/resolv.conf nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:34] <pi3> bruenig: I've done apt-get -f install, apt-get install --fix-broken but the problem is still there
[08:34] <saxin> looking for a program to record my desktop.. any suggestions?
[08:34] <user_> I need something like Microsoft Visual C++
[08:34] <bruenig> systemd0wn, the first one should say iwlist to determine the ssid
[08:35] <Dr_willis> user_,   you mean a C+ IDE that is similer to MS Visual C++ ?
[08:35] <systemd0wn> bruenig, i figured something like that.  But my problem is whats running in the background and auto-connecting so that i can stop it. :P
[08:35] <bruenig> systemd0wn, kill it
[08:35] <glencore> user_: for gnome?
[08:35] <user_> Dr_willis:  yea
[08:35] <systemd0wn> bruenig, whats IT?
[08:35] <liorkamer> wich client irc u use in ubento ?
[08:35] <systemd0wn> bruenig, you mean nm-applet?
[08:35] <user_> glencore: that's right
[08:36] <bruenig> systemd0wn, I don't know, see ps -A and see if any of the names look right, it may be nm-applet, I think that is what ubuntu goes with
[08:36] <Dr_willis> liorkamer,  i use xchat
[08:36] <liorkamer> i new in irc

[08:37] <GSMX> hi, i just installed ubuntu, but it seems ubuntu doesn't see that my monitor can handle a 1280x1024 screen resolution, how can i solve this?
[08:37] <Maximander> oooooookey... my gdm issue is (sorta) solved... now i have a directory (/var/lib/gdm-corrupted) which I cannot delete..
[08:37] <skollie> oxeimon3: while you are having this problem, because it is either a DNS or a DHCP problem, I think
[08:37] <RkyRaccoon> anyone know how to change touchpad settings?
[08:37] <systemd0wn> bruenig, good idea.  there is "NetworkManager" , "NetworkManagerD", and "nm-applet" the last probably just being the GUI front-end
[08:38] <Jaymac> user_, Anjuta is the best GTK C++ IDE
[08:38] <oxeimon3> btw, when firefox opens, it now tries to find google for about 20 sec before saying "Server not found"
[08:38] <randy> bruenig could u help me install my intel drivers
[08:38] <glencore> user_: have you tried glade?
[08:38] <bruenig> systemd0wn, the second one would be the daemon and the first one is likely the actual thing located at /usr/sbin/networkmanager, you could probably kill the first two
[08:39] <Maximander> root@seawolf  : /var/lib/ # rm -rf gdm-corrupted... cannot lstat gdm-corrupted/.gdminfo : permission denied.
[08:39] <user_> Jaymac: yea but when I click RMB I don't know what new file I must create to make new program
[08:39] <systemd0wn> bruenig, i like that idea.  if it breaks i will just re-start them
[08:39] <glencore> Maximander: you using sudo?
[08:39] <Jaymac> user read a bit about anjuta
[08:39] <skollie> oxeimon3: have you tried restarting your network?

[08:40] <GSMX> hi, i just installed ubuntu, but it seems ubuntu doesn't see that my monitor can handle a 1280x1024 screen resolution, how can i solve this? (1280x1024 doesn't show up at the preferences/screen resolution)
[08:40] <Maximander> not user@seawolf $
[08:40] <kc5goi> Has anyone here worked with getting the ATI ES1000 RN50 to get to full resolution?  I am trying to get it to 1280x1024.  xresprode says the display is capable and Dell did too?
[08:40] <skollie> KI4IKL: have you tried amarok?
[08:40] <oxeimon3> I've unplugged and replugged the cable...
[08:40] <KI4IKL> nahkiss, i'll try it...also, where can I get the mp3 codecs, skollie ?
[08:40] <kc5goi> GSMX, what video card do you have, I have the same issue.  Best I get is 1024x768
[08:40] <younghacker> can someone help me configure access permissions on postgresql
[08:40] <oxeimon3> I've changed the connection from DHCP to something else, and then changed it back
[08:41] <kaptein> GSMX, in a terminal type gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change all the entries saying 11024x768 to 1280x1024
[08:41] <skollie> KI4IKL: when you try to play mp3's, amarok will ask if you want to install support for it. say yes
[08:41] <skollie> oxeimon3: do this - sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[08:41] <KI4IKL> kk
[08:41] <systemd0wn> bruenig, for the record they both have man pages, NetworkManager and NetworkManagerDispatcher
[08:42] <oxeimon3> brb

[08:42] <systemd0wn> bruenig, ya i used wifi-radar for a bit, but i guess im getting used to networkmanager
[08:42] <mhz`> young, use mysql!
[08:42] <mhz`> :)
[08:43] <Maximander> younghacker: just be warned though, if running headless and using phppgadmin, the port is wrong...
[08:43] <godofredo> Why Does VmWare Want All The Info When I Register?
[08:43] <oxeimon> kk
[08:43] <Maximander> younghacker: ubuntu pushes it up one to 5433 instead of 5432
[08:43] <t2> when feisty is logging in... just before it displays KDE splash screen, my monitor goes black and gives a prompt that the resolution is not right... then after few seconds it logs in an all is normal ?   i just got things working with xorg.conf and widescreen anyone know why this could be happening ?
[08:43] <oxeimon> same problem
[08:43] <mhz`> mysql + phpmyadmin w/ apache
[08:43] <godofredo> Has Anyone Registered With Them Before?
[08:43] <mhz`> LAMP stack
[08:43] <Maximander> mhz`: WHY?!
[08:43] <pder> does anyone know if ubuntu has support for input devices such as keyboards and a mouse?  i wish to use a keyboard to enter text into my computer system.  i would also like to use a mouse to point at various objects on the screen and perform operations using the mouse buttons.  is this possible?
[08:43] <oxeimon> DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to <IP_ADDRESS> port 67 interval 7...
[08:43] <mhz`> LAMP stack!!
[08:43] <bruenig> systemd0wn, I like that you can launch it with sudo therefore meaning no password, I know networkmanager requires keyring, and that it is standalone so I can shortcut with keyboard seeing as its only use is on a laptop and all
[08:43] <younghacker> ok
[08:43] <younghacker> so is that a config change i hae to make
[08:44] <oxeimon> 3 of those, and then, "No DHCPOFFERS received. No working leases in persistent databse - sleeping."
[08:44] <Maximander> mhz`: triggers, constraints, etc... mySQL and postgresql are different things for different jobs
[08:44] <pi3> someone had problems with updating openoffice.org-core 2.2.0?
[08:44] <t2> i had to boot PCLinuxOS 2007 live CD and look at its xorg.conf then copy things from there into ubuntu. thanks to the excellent hardware detection in PCLOS2007
[08:44] <mhz`> true, i just like mysql :/
[08:44] <mhz`> don't hate me because i'm beautiful :)
[08:44] <Optimus55> does anyone know how to setup an EVDO card to automatically authenticate without entering username and password?
[08:44] <Maximander> mhz`: when you need postgres (or db2, or oracle) you really do, and mySQL won't cut it.
[08:44] <skollie> oxeimon: problem with your device not being able to get an address from your DHCP server
[08:45] <mhz`> yeah i'm mostly stuck with access/mssql since i work for a windows hosting company
[08:45] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Are You There?
[08:45] <Maximander> mhz`: don't get me wrong, I like mySQL too, but telling people to use it over postgres typically looks uninformed, since when people move towards postgres, then tend to know they that they need it
[08:45] <skollie> oxeimon: try rebooting, but if that does not work, you'll have to speak to your admin people, I think
[08:45] <oxeimon> skollie: what could be causing that?
[08:45] <Newbie_Dude> OK, so I finally figured out that Multiverse was already enabled by default. I tried reading the README file and still can't figure out to compile. Is there another way to go about this? I couldn't find ZSNES in the Synaptic, which is the only way I know how to install something.
[08:46] <Maximander> mysql is nice and fast though.
[08:46] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Yes ( I was away but I'm back )
[08:46] <systemd0wn> bruenig, dont think i ever used the shortcut
[08:46] <Pricey> !find zsnes
[08:46] <ubotu> Found: zsnes
[08:46] <Pricey> !info | zsnes | Newbie_Dude
[08:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about info - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:46] <Pricey> !info zsnes | Newbie_Dude
[08:46] <ubotu> newbie_dude: zsnes: Emulator of the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (TM). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1.420-2.1ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 513 kB, installed size 3232 kB (Only available for i386)
[08:46] <Optimus55> i'm trying to get my evdo card to connect with wvdial but it says cant authenticate with username/pword. in Windows i dont have to enter any username or pass
[08:46] <Pricey> Newbie_Dude, were you using capital letters?
[08:46] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  Linux is case senestive. :)
[08:46] <systemd0wn> QUESTION, anyone know of a way i can flash a compact flash card while im in ubuntu?
[08:46] <Newbie_Dude> @Pricey: I'm not sure, I'll open Add/Remove again and search for "zsnes" in "all available"
[08:47] <systemd0wn> i have always used little windows apps
[08:47] <Pricey> Newbie_Dude, do "sudo apt-get install zsnes" in a terminal
[08:47] <Maximander> @anyone: any ideas to delete a corrupted folder which even root is getting lstat permission denied?
[08:47] <pder> does ubuntu have support for storage devices?  i have a hard disk i would like to use with my personal computer system.
[08:47] <godofredo> Jordan_U, I Am To The Part In The Installation Of VmWare Server Where It Wants The Serial #. I'm Really Not Comfortable Inputing The Info THe Registration Requires, Any Ideas?
[08:47] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  using 'which zsnes' sshows it installed in  /usr/bin/zsnes
[08:47] <systemd0wn> pder, just a regular IDE drive?
[08:47] <Dr_willis> pder,  care to clarify that?
[08:47] <Ubuzy> Hi :|
[08:48] <Dr_willis> pder,   i use external usb/firewire/ whatever disks/drives/thumgdrives all the time
[08:48] <Ubuzy> Hi, some knows where is the mod_security in Feisty? it is not in the repos...
[08:48] <santims> is there a default firewall set up or built into Ubuntu?????
[08:48] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Make a free gmail account, register with it with no identifiable info, use the registration :)
[08:48] <Anlar> santims: thank god no
[08:48] <Dr_willis> santims,  not enabled by default.. but its installed
[08:48] <Jordan_U> !firewall | santims
[08:48] <ubotu> santims: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[08:48] <Dr_willis> !firewall
[08:48] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Like Make Up A Name?
[08:48] <Optimus55> has anyone gotten PPP to dial evdo in Ubuntu????
[08:48] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Sure, don't see why it wouldn't work
[08:48] <Pricey> godofredo, there are disposable email addresses availiable on the net
[08:48] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Will They Hunt Me Down For It? I Guess I Could Use 2prong.com Also
[08:48] <Newbie_Dude> OK I typed "sudo apt-get install zsnes" and got this E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[08:48] <santims> thank you all, i guess i am just having troubles with my airport
[08:49] <Maximander> santims: also might look into shorewall.
[08:49] <Pricey> Newbie_Dude, close add/remove programs
[08:49] <Pricey> Newbie_Dude, or synaptic
[08:49] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Why would they?
[08:49] <Pricey> Newbie_Dude, and synaptic sorry
[08:49] <skollie> Newbie_Dude: close any other package manager you have open
[08:49] <godofredo> Jordan_U, No Clue.
[08:49] <godofredo> Jordan_U, What About Phone #?
[08:49] <Jordan_U> godofredo, They only care about whether or not you use it in a commercial setting
[08:49] <Ubuzy> some knows where is the mod_security (modesurity.org) in Feisty? it is not in the repos...
[08:49] <godofredo> Jordan_U, How Would I Let Them Know I Don't?
[08:50] <Jordan_U> godofredo, You don't need to, just don't :)
[08:50] <mhz`> i cannot wait to boot back into ubunutu
[08:50] <mhz`> ubuntu*
[08:50] <mhz`> this blows
[08:50] <godofredo> Jordan_U, K Thx.
[08:50] <Optimus55> im in xp now... cus ubuntu doesnt want to authenticate my evdo connection :(
[08:50] <Jordan_U> godofredo, If I can remember what account I used I think it gave me two registration numbers
[08:50] <mhz`> i'm in xp now b/c i'm working
[08:51] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Good Idea! But, Can You Find IT?
[08:51] <Optimus55> i'm in xp now, cus it lets me get online into ubuntu irc chans
[08:51] <stefg> !dialup | Optimus55
[08:51] <ubotu> Optimus55: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[08:51] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Did You Use Your Info? Or Did You Make It Up Like You Suggested?
[08:52] <Optimus55> i have no problem getting it to recognise the modem. thats cool. it just asks for username/pass
[08:52] <sako> hi
[08:52] <Newbie_Dude> I'm gonna kill this GAIM program, can't figure out how to turn off the "xxx left the room" "xxx entered the room" messages >_<
[08:52] <Optimus55> its an evdo card, so i dont have one. supposed to be automatic. doesnt ask for one in xp
[08:52] <bruenig> Newbie_Dude, guifications plugin probably
[08:53] <stefg> Optimus55: so what authenmtication uses that ISP? pap, chap, some proprietary crap?
[08:53] <Jordan_U> godofredo, I don't remember, I did it a while ago, I am not very paranoid about VMware having publicly available info on me though ( although I can see why some people would be )
[08:53] <Optimus55> chap
[08:53] <Anlar> Newbie_Dude: you can't. gaim is piece of s..
[08:53] <bruenig> Anlar, you are wrong
[08:53] <Optimus55> oh evdo, its like.. i guess yall have verizon wireless high speed cards
[08:53] <maximander> Dr_willis: 3g wireless broadband from verizon
[08:53] <systemd0wn> question, anyone know of a physical write program ? for writing images to CF cards?
[08:54] <Dr_willis> maximander,  eww... Im too poor to afford those.
[08:54] <Dr_willis> :)
[08:54] <stefg> Optimus55: chap so looking at the logs to see where it fails would be interesting. Sure you have the right credentials served?
[08:54] <askand> I am using BUM to disable services I dont need..what does these services do? postfix, xinetd, inetutils-inetd? Can I disable some of them?
[08:54] <assasukasse> hi, someone uses openvpn?
[08:54] <beni> I got an Linux-only (Ubuntu-only) network, how can i share files?
[08:55] <Optimus55> well when i wvdial, everything goes through, then it says "authentication failed" some error code "due to incorrect username/password"
[08:55] <Newbie_Dude> Anyone know a good SNES emulator for Ubuntu? I gave up on ZSNES, hehe.
[08:55] <Dr_willis> askand,   google is a good place to start. :) but most of those - you proberly want to leave running. (well perhaps not postfix)
[08:55] <b0ne> beni: http://google.com/search?q=nfs
[08:55] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  i use zsnes all the time. it works fine for me.
[08:55] <maximander> beni: you could use samba, or nfs
[08:55] <amr> hey i have a problem with samba on ubuntu 7.04 and vista
[08:55] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  do a 'apt-cache search nes'
[08:55] <Optimus55> file:///E:/Ubuntu/EV-DO.htm
[08:55] <stefg> beni: the meanest, leanest way is using ssh (sshfs,sftp)
[08:55] <Optimus55> oops
[08:55] <b0ne> leanest?
[08:55] <maximander> stefg: lean?
[08:55] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: I know nothing about evdo but this might help..  http://dryicezero.blogspot.com/2005/12/sprint-sierra-580-evdo-card-linux.html
[08:55] <uberushaximus> is there a workaround to get the pixma ip1600 (ip2200) printer drivers in X86_64?
[08:56] <Pricey> Newbie_Dude, snes9x?
[08:56] <stefg> compared to samba or nfs
[08:56] <Dr_willis> uberushaximus,  you mean ya got it working under 32bit linux?
[08:56] <b0ne> someone ban that guy
[08:56] <beni> stefg: thats kinda too uberleet ;)
[08:56] <maximander> stefg: 1024bit encryption != lean
[08:56] <Newbie_Dude> @Dr_willis I typed that in a terminal and got spammed xD
[08:56] <uberushaximus> Dr_willis: no, but I've read about it
[08:56] <amr> hey please help me i can't share files between vista and ubuntu
[08:56] <kevinl--> is there a way to browse ubuntu packages and download them via http without installing them?
[08:56] <beni> b0ne: need for speed? kewl :)
[08:56] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  time to learn to use apt.
[08:56] <stefg> maximander: ok, not cpu wise, but protocol wise
[08:56] <Optimus55> okay thanks.
[08:56] <b0ne> yes !
[08:56] <tarzeau> kevinl--: packages.ubuntu.com ?
[08:57] <Dr_willis> uberushaximus,  I got one of those.. would be nice to get it going under linux. last i looked the support well.. wasent there. :)
[08:57] <b0ne> race cars drive your files around, it's pretty neat
[08:57] <amr> please i can't share files between vista and ubuntu
[08:57] <maximander> stefg: umm.. ssh still has overhead, on par with nfs.
[08:57] <amr> but i can share between vista and xp
[08:57] <Optimus55> i saw that blog but same problem, it asks u to enter ur verizon number? i dont hav1, not in verizon, or have any kind of username/pass
[08:57] <stefg> maximander: but ssh works :-)
[08:57] <Optimus55> http://samat.org/weblog/20070128-sprints-evdo-mobile-broadband-on-ubuntu-linux.html this guide has great details
[08:57] <maximander> stefg: you want lean, look into kernel level ATA over Ethernet
[08:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: Item 5 in particular
[08:57] <Dr_willis> amr,  ive noticed that vista is a real PAIN with the samba stuff.. not sure whats going on with it all. As  a eay way to get files around. ya could install ssh on linux, and use winscp on windows.
[08:57] <Optimus55> but i'm not sure what to make of it, looks like gibberish to me
[08:57] <stefg> maximander: iScsi?
[08:58] <oxeimon> skollie you still there
[08:58] <HHP2K> Hey guys, why does my mouse wheel act as a back/forward button when I spin it? How do I fix this?
[08:58] <skollie> oxeimon: yes
[08:58] <amr> ok but i am new to linux
[08:58] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Thx
[08:58] <amr> and installed ssh before but couldn't  use itr
[08:58] <oxeimon> skollie: I just booted to my XP install
[08:58] <Optimus55> yeah i checked item 5, but in xp its automatic, like i just press connect and the modem automatically authenticates, i dont enter any details, so i dont have any
[08:58] <Dr_willis> amr,  thats why theres dozens of starter guides out there. :)
[08:58] <oxeimon> and it turns out I have two hardware mac addresses
[08:58] <Dr_willis> amr,  and this channel of course.
[08:59] <amr> thank u
[08:59] <Hoxzer> hi, amarok hangs at start is it a bug ?
[08:59] <berent> opera is getting closed due to segmentation fault. what to do
[08:59] <oxeimon> the one I gave you corresponds to an unconnected piece of hardware or something
[08:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: try the login as your phone number and pass as the last 4 digits of your number
[08:59] <amr> but is there a work around vista to share, MAC OS X did it
[08:59] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Is The Info I Put In To VmWare.com Publicly Viewable?

[09:13] <Vlet> what does the 'network' clause in the interfaces file referr to?
[09:13] <skollie> oxeimon: when you looked at your network settings, did it show you two devices?
[09:13] <mav_> hmmm
[09:13] <oxeimon> it shows two connections...
[09:14] <oxeimon> a wired connection, and an 'unconfigured' modem connection
[09:14] <Optimus55> okay i had the page still open, i took a screen grab and uploading to flikr

[09:14] <skollie> oxeimon: I assume the wired connection is your network card?

[09:14] <Whosits> okay, I thought lower would probably help
[09:14] <Whosits> thanks

[09:15] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Will You Give Me The URL To Register For VMWare Server Please?
[09:15] <oxeimon> probably, though there is only 1
[09:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: Sorry to bother you but did you create those files as they say on that page?
[09:15] <skollie> oxeimon: and it is configured to get its ip address via DHCP?
[09:16] <verydeep> Hi, was anyone successful to activate the NOKIA D211 under ubuntu?

[09:16] <oxeimon> yes
[09:16] <oxeimon> skollie: okay, I think the problem is here
[09:16] <oxeimon> skollie: under device manager, I see both of my network cards
[09:16] <skollie> oxeimon: tell me...?

[09:17] <oxeimon> the mac address that is given in the system log corresponds to the one that the XP install says is disconnected
[09:17] <Optimus55> oh okay the servers back up
[09:17] <Newbie_Dude> Anyone know where I can get the "GDK Development Package" ?
[09:17] <Optimus55> no, im not sure what i'm supposed to do there actually

[09:18] <oxeimon> it's listed under SB600 PCI to PCI Bridge -> RTL-8139/... -> Networking Interface
[09:18] <skollie> oxeimon: but you only have one card, right?
[09:18] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: sure, i'd appreciate it
[09:18] <oxeimon> no, I have two
[09:18] <oxeimon> *apparently*
[09:18] <canabu> newbie
[09:18] <Jordan_U> godofredo, np
[09:18] <RkyRaccoon> im thinking of trying a different distro of ubuntu which would you recommend? Kubuntu, Xubuntu?
[09:18] <skollie> oxeimon: have you tried connecting the cable to the other card?
[09:18] <oxeimon> because, there's another one, that's listed under RS480 PCI Bridge -> ET-131x PCI-E Ethernet Controller
[09:18] <Newbie_Dude> @Jordan_U: I'm trying to compile something, and on the website it says I should have the "GDK+ 2.4 or later development package, the ALSA library and it's development package, and SDL 1.2.11 and it's development package"
[09:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: We are going to edit or create the first file from a terminal gksudo gedit /etc/ppp/peers/sprint
[09:19] <pi4> apt-get tells me to apt-get -f install to correct the problem, but apt-get -f install doesn't correct it :(
[09:19] <ChrisF> I just installed Internet Explorer 6 (ack) and it has a desktop shortcut.  I want to add it to my Applications menu.  How do I do that?
[09:19] <magnetron> welcome canabu
[09:19] <oxeimon> that's the one that the XP install has been using, and I know works
[09:19] <Jordan_U> Newbie_Dude, What are you trying to compile?
[09:19] <oxeimon> I haven't, but ideally, I'd like to have both OS's run on the same network card if possible
[09:19] <Newbie_Dude> @Jordan_U: NEStopia, an emulator. :P
[09:19] <ny00123> verydeep
[09:19] <skollie> they should, but I'm very confused now

[09:19] <ny00123> I mean...
[09:19] <crolle17> my totem doesn't play mp3. what can i do?
[09:20] <citronio> cannot mount my cd-dvd drive. problems with SATA hard drive??? any help???
[09:20] <ny00123> verydeep, you want to at least save a backup of the "phones book"(My English..heh)?
[09:20] <Newbie_Dude> !nestopia
[09:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nestopia - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:20] <ny00123> if not more
[09:20] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: okay i'm booting into ubuntu on my laptop, 1 min

[09:20] <ubotu> crolle17: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[09:20] <magnetron> !mp3 | crolle17
[09:20] <Jordan_U> Newbie_Dude, It is probably a typo and they meant GTK+
[09:20] <ny00123> verydeep, try Wammu (sudo apt-get install wammu)
[09:20] <crolle17> i tried to play mp3-files with the totem gstreamer, but that doesn't work.
[09:21] <pi4> crolle17, I think that if you try to open a mp3 file, ubuntu offers you to download the codecs
[09:21] <crolle17> pi4, magnetron why not mp3?
[09:21] <Newbie_Dude> @Jordan_U: OK, so I'll check for "GTK" in the Synaptic Add/Remove
[09:21] <Jordan_U> crolle17, It should offer to install the codecs for you on Feisty
[09:21] <coopster> has anyone else ever run into an issue where mdadm insists on marking a partition as a spare in a raid?  i have 2 logical partitions on /dev/sdc, and they both fark-up the RAID they are in, because they both get treated as spares
[09:21] <skollie> oxeimon: looks like ubuntu is getting an ip address for your eth0.avahi )or whatever) but then trying to use eth0 as your default device
[09:21] <crolle17> Jordan_U, right. i have a feisty-system
[09:21] <maximander> how do i change the mount params of a mounted drive without unmounting ?
[09:21] <citronio> cannot mount my cd-dvd drive. problems with SATA hard drive??? any help???
[09:21] <bruenig> maximander, you don't
[09:21] <oxeimon> oh wow that's amazing
[09:21] <Jordan_U> Newbie_Dude, And the package you want will end in -dev
[09:21] <maximander> i need to switch / to ro
[09:22] <pi4> crolle17, why why not mp3? do you mean the "!"
[09:22] <pi4> ?
[09:22] <oxeimon> yeah, I connected it to the other ethernet slot
[09:22] <oxeimon> and I'm online now
[09:22] <crolle17> pi4, yes
[09:22] <bruenig> maximander, umount it
[09:22] <skollie> oxeimon: try it is XP and see if it also works
[09:22] <bruenig> maximander, then mount with -o ro
[09:22] <oxeimon> kk
[09:22] <magnetron> crolle17: read the message from ubotu
[09:22] <maximander> bruenig: unmount / ?
[09:22] <Jordan_U> maximander, You might be able to do that with sysrq, why do you need / ro ?
[09:22] <Newbie_Dude> This Ubuntu thing seems pretty tough to learn, you guys think the benefits of Ubuntu are worth learning all this stuff? :P
[09:22] <pi4> crolle17, I thought the same thing, like in C.. but it's the way to tell ubotu to tell you something
[09:22] <jacque124> rc.underz.org
[09:23] <coopster> Newbie_Dude, depends on your motivation.
[09:23] <MrTsunami> Newbie_Dude: yes. :D
[09:23] <crolle17> pi4, ah.
[09:23] <Juhaz> Newbie_Dude, you need libgtk2.0-dev
[09:23] <citronio> cannot mount my cd-dvd drive. problems with SATA hard drive??? any help???
[09:23] <pi4> bruenig: I still have the problem :s
[09:23] <maximander> fsck can't fix the corrupted files while mounted, so I wanted to remount it ro and then run fsck -f
[09:23] <Juhaz> Newbie_Dude, and compiling things is hard everywhere.
[09:23] <bruenig> maximander, change the fstab entry and reboot
[09:23] <captainm> Newbie_Dude, you'll pick it up, it looks harder than it thus. Plus you'll learn something about how your computer works along the way :)
[09:23] <Newbie_Dude> @Juhaz: Thanks, I won't give up. :) I already uninstalled Windows XP so there's no going back. xD
[09:23] <maximander> beh, i don't wanna reboot...
[09:23] <magnetron> Newbie_Dude: i personally think that Ubuntu with Gnome is easier to learn, if you don't have any previous computer experience
[09:23] <Jordan_U> maximander, run "sudo touch /forcefsck" then reboot
[09:23] <bruenig> maximander, it is a bad idea by the way to mount it as ro, unless you have /var on another partition
[09:24] <coopster> maximander, fsck can't fix the file system if the drive is ro, can it?
[09:24] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Is There A Need For The VMWare Web Administrator GUI If I Don't Plan On Having Anyone Outside My Network Use The Virtual Machine?
[09:24] <bruenig> fsck doesn't work on mounted drives coopster
[09:24] <amr> ihi
[09:24] <pi4> how do I correct Unmet dependencies?
[09:24] <coopster> bruenig, right, so, mounted ro counts as not mounted, or it won't work?
[09:25] <citronio> cannot mount my cd-dvd drive. problems with SATA hard drive??? any help???
[09:25] <crolle17> Jordan_U, no. totem doesn't lead me to install the missing codec. which package to install?
[09:25] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Don't see why you would.
[09:25] <bruenig> coopster, it won't work regardless of how it is mounted,
[09:25] <crolle17> Jordan_U, i would do by hand then.
[09:25] <amr> may i ask if there a nother program can be used instead of samba and give support for vista
[09:25] <lnxmomo> hi again, conky didnt work with me and compiz, can anyone recommend another text based system monitor?
[09:25] <Jordan_U> crolle17, Look at the guide ubotu gave
[09:25] <magnetron> amr: what do you want to do with the system
[09:25] <coopster> amr, it depends on what support you want to give
[09:25] <tarzeau> lnxmomo: monitor what kind of stuff?
[09:26] <IndyLucian> how do i pull up a list of all installed packages on my distro
[09:26] <Jordan_U> pi4, What are you trying to install?
[09:26] <amr> i have lan between my pc running ubuntu and my fathers running vita
[09:26] <coopster> lnxmomo, cat | less ?
[09:26] <Vlet> Is there an apt command that will list available packages like 'yum list available'?
[09:26] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: okay sry for the delay. using live cd. ubuntu loaded and in cli
[09:26] <Newbie_Dude> No wonder I couldn't get ZSNES to compile or whatever earlier, it says "i386" only, and I have AMD64. >_<
[09:26] <russe11> !jabber
[09:26] <bruenig> lnxmomo, conky is all there is in that arena and it should work, it is probably an error on your end, try setting use_own_window 1 or whatever that one is
[09:26] <IndyLucian> vlet, just open add/remove programs under Applications or Synaptics under System->Adminstration
[09:26] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Are You AFK Again :) ?
[09:26] <pi4> Jordan_U, I'm trying to install sshfs, but apt-get doesn't allow me because it says "E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f."
[09:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: Are you trying to do this running live?

[09:27] <amr> so i want to make share but samba have problems with vista i tried all what was there in ubuntuforums.org and ubuntuguide but no improvment

[09:27] <captainm> lnxmomo, and add this under section "modules": Load "dbe"
[09:27] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: so i'm going to save the docs/script and run it when i'm able to switch
[09:27] <oxeimon> this is really weird
[09:27] <oxeimon> woww
[09:28] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  you realize that there is proberly no real reason for you to be runnint a 64bit disrto.. and Correct.. ZSNES is 32bit ONLY... you cant compile it to be 64bit.
[09:28] <Jordan_U> crolle17, Why are you installing libxine1-ffmpeg, that is not what the instructions say
[09:28] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: is it possible to do ith live
[09:28] <godofredo> Jordan_U, In VMWare It Asks Me To Choose A Network Connection, If I Only Want The Host Computer To Access It Can I Say No Network Connection?
[09:28] <skollie> oxeimon: what's happening?
[09:28] <Optimus55> ?
[09:28] <lnxmomo> i did that before i installed conky captainm
[09:28] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  if you had mentioned that earlier i would of told ya. :) heh heh.
[09:28] <citronio> cannot mount my cd-dvd drive. problems with SATA hard drive??? any help???
[09:28] <oxeimon> why does my computer have two network cards lol
[09:28] <crolle17> Jordan_U, your linke led to this link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/MP3#head-eea6f341d3c611167270106a187907c2a23e08e2
[09:28] <godofredo> Jordan_U, When Creating A New Virtual Server.
[09:28] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Yes
[09:28] <crolle17> and at the bottom there is this lib mentioned.
[09:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: I think so but you would not want to do it other than just to test it
[09:28] <Newbie_Dude> @DR_willis: (;>_<) So, should I Download a different (non-64bit) distro? >_<
[09:29] <skollie> oxeimon: but iot's all good and working under both ubuntu and xp?
[09:29] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  I use the 32bit Ubuntu on all my amd64 based machiens just fine.
[09:29] <godofredo> Jordan_U, If I Hope To Run iTunes Off Of This XP Installation How Many Gigs Would Be A Safe Zone?
[09:29] <Jordan_U> crolle17, That is for Amerok
[09:29] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  people tent to think they MUST use 64bit disrtos on them.. wich is not true at all.
[09:29] <captainm> lnxmomo, hmm, try this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=492762&highlight=conky+beryl
[09:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: bring up a terminal screen
[09:29] <oxeimon> yup
[09:29] <oxeimon> :-D
[09:29] <Jordan_U> godofredo, No idea, I don't use windows
[09:29] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  so yes.. i would advise getting the 32bit ubuntu and using that instead of 64bit.
[09:29] <oxeimon> I'm just curious now as to whcih is the better one
[09:29] <oxeimon> >.>
[09:29] <coopster> godofredo, if you want to dual boot like that, you may do well to have a windows partition, linux partition, and one big partition that's FAT32 to store files
[09:29] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: exactly. i need to test it first. once i know it works i can get rid of xp. but if i installed ubuntu and it didnt work i would be in a lotta @#$%
[09:29] <Jordan_U> godofredo, What do you need itunes for?
[09:30] <crolle17> Jordan_U, right. but that is the only codec for feisty mentioned. btw. which player do you advise?
[09:30] <skollie> oxeimon: so no need to worry about the 2nd card ;)
[09:30] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: We are going to edit or create the first file from a terminal gksudo gedit /etc/ppp/peers/sprint
[09:30] <Vlet> Will installing ubuntu-desktop install and configure gdm automatically?
[09:30] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: I have been dual booting xp and linux for a long time

[09:30] <godofredo> Jordan_U, My Sis Has An iPod And Wants To Use iTunes, So I Decided To Add VMware on The Linux Installation So She Can Buys Songs And Such
[09:30] <Jordan_U> crolle17, I don't have a preference other than totem, I though that was what you were trying to play it in
[09:30] <Newbie_Dude> @Dr_willis: If I was to stay with 64-bit distro, would I just be missing out on 32-bit programs? What would be the disadvantage of staying with my 64-bit? :P Hehe... 700 Megabytes would take me like 2 days to download on my 56k modem...
[09:30] <citronio> cannot mount my cd-dvd drive. problems with SATA hard drive??? any help???
[09:30] <DaH-RaT> does anyone know why i cannot use my Desktop EffectS? im using the generic ATI drivers from the OS, it was found and also i get a good "Yes" from glxnfo command

[09:31] <crolle17> Jordan_U, yes. but my totem seems to be quite dead.
[09:31] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: okay. a window opened
[09:31] <oxeimon> meh
[09:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: Let me know when you have opened the terminal and are in the editor

[09:31] <oxeimon> skollie I really appreciate it
[09:31] <Jordan_U> godofredo, I know there are ways to sync an ipod in Linux, I don't know if you can buy from the itunes store though
[09:31] <skollie> oxeimon: np
[09:31] <crolle17> Jordan_U, means the codecs are missing...
[09:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55:  type      gksudo gedit /etc/ppp/peers/sprint
[09:31] <coopster>  Newbie_Dude, generally 64-bit OS's are a pain to run.  I use ubuntu 64-bit, I have yet to get around to making java work in a web browser, or flash, or most windows media player videos.... etc
[09:31] <snipex> i got 2 mobile phones and my comp has got bluetooth, konquer detects phones but when i want to share files
[09:31] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: yeh the editor opened title "sprint"
[09:31] <xman> hey guys, what does this error mean when i start a program from cli  Fontconfig warning: line 32: unknown element "cachedir"
[09:31] <xman>  ?
[09:32] <snipex> my mobile phones ask for permission, i click yes and then they demand password
[09:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: COpy the info from that page you linked earlier..
[09:32] <beni> hey i just finished my ubuntu server installation, and now it always restarts.  Normal grub settings (kernel foo ; initrd /boot/blub; savedefault; boot) and it is just restarting, for 10 minutes now. what the heck? :P
[09:32] <coopster> Newbie_Dude, 64 bit systems are liable to run into problems when they need to interact with things made for 32bit systems, like flash or some video codecs
[09:32] <snipex> what do i do now
[09:32] <bagualas> the x11vnc shutdowns after someone access the machine, is that a bug? Or it simples doesn't run as service?
[09:32] <alexou_> hello, ati 9200/9250 driver fglrx : log -> (EE) fglrx(0): [09:32] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  you aint going to be missing much if anything.. order the free cd's or find some at the bookstore/magazine rack if ya want.
[09:32] <Jordan_U> crolle17, I think that you want gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3
[09:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: Just the text from the first light grey box..
[09:33] <NemesisD> is there a way to prevent sounds from playing at the login screen or when i log in?
[09:33] <Vlet> xman: does the application run correctly? sometimes graphical applications, when run from the commandline, spit out debug messages that are basically meaningless
[09:33] <Newbie_Dude> OK, I'll start the 32-bit download then go out to 7-11 for another bottle of Tylenol.
[09:33] <coopster> Newbie_Dude, unless you need 8 gigs of ram or quick number calculations (dividing decimals, etc), you're better w/ 32
[09:33] <citronio> cannot mount my cd-dvd drive. problems with SATA hard drive??? any help???
[09:33] <Jordan_U> NemesisD, Yes
[09:33] <beni> NemesisD: Cut the Wires on the Soundcard
[09:33] <Dr_willis> citronio,  perhaps clarify the problem, not just repeating it..you are not very clear.
[09:33] <xman> Vlet, yes it does. it's just i wonder what those are
[09:33] <NemesisD> beni, laptop :O
[09:33] <NemesisD> Jordan_U, do tell
[09:33] <coopster> Newbie_Dude, unless of course you're like me and just have to run 64bit even in the face of overwhelming hassle w/ no benefits
[09:34] <Jordan_U> NemesisD, System -> Administration -> Login Window
[09:34] <bronze-> Can anyone paste an at sign.
[09:34] <NemesisD> okay
[09:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: when done save that file and exit the editor
[09:34] <crolle17> Jordan_U, my sources.list doesn't know that package (i only have standard-url in the list)
[09:34] <ozzman> I am having a hard time installing Flash Plug-ins for Firefox (X86_64) Help?
[09:34] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: copy exactly as it is right?
[09:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55:  type      gksudo gedit /etc/chatscripts/sprint-connect                and do the same for that
[09:35] <stefg> !flash64 | ozzman
[09:35] <ubotu> ozzman: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[09:35] <fsckr> what is the correct syntax if I want to change a folder that belongs to root to make it belong to me the user?
[09:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: yes copy what they say to use
[09:35] <snipex> i got 2 mobile phones and my comp has got bluetooth, konquer detects phones but when i want to share files my mobile phones ask for permission, i click yes and then they demand password
[09:35] <NemesisD> Jordan_U, ok i disabled the sound in accessability now where do i get rid of that short jingle when you actually log in? it's showing login successful as empty so that can't be it
[09:35] <Fred> can anyone recommend a nice light-weight dos emulator for xubuntu?
[09:35] <citronio> thx Dr_willis, i cannot mount the cd drive, it is not recognized anywhere, and I read it may be because of a conflict between IDE and SATA. apparently changing the BIOS config would help, but I cannot find an option to do so, and I read if I could load first the IDE driver and then the SATA may solve the problem, but I don't have a clue about how to do that...
[09:35] <crolle17> Jordan_U, sorry. now i found it.
[09:35] <stefg> fsckr: sudo chown <username> /foo/bar
[09:36] <fsckr> ty stefg
[09:36] <xman> Fred, dosbox ?
[09:36] <magnetron> Fred: dosbox or dosemu
[09:36] <Jordan_U> NemesisD, System -> Preferences -> Sound
[09:36] <Fred> xman that is what i was thinking
[09:37] <Fred> thanks
[09:37] <younghacker> hey
[09:37] <fsckr> stefg: i just did that command and I guess root is the group now how do i change that?
[09:37] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Should I Be Able To Run All Non-3D Applications On VMWARE?
[09:37] <younghacker> now that postgres works so well i want to rid myslef of mysql
[09:38] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Yes
[09:38] <stefg> fsckr: sudo chown <username>:<groupname> /foo/bar ... man chaown is nice to read, btw
[09:38] <bony> is it possible to link evolution to a database for storing and retrieving data from different mail id's?
[09:38] <younghacker> i tried to apt-get remove it but,, it says no package named mysql exists
[09:38] <younghacker> is there something im missing?
[09:38] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: okay did both of them
[09:38] <oxeimon> is it possible to restart a computer via the command line?
[09:38] <Whosits> I'm back. I tried turning my burn speed down to the lowest supported speed by my drive (8x) and the CD's integrity check still comes back bad
[09:38] <crolle17> Jordan_U, it's curious the totem can't open that mp3-file, but the rhythm-box-music-player can do. but i still have problem to get something out...
[09:38] <Newbie_Dude> Since I installed Ubuntu I haven't been able to get any sound out of my computer, is that normal? :P
[09:38] <Jordan_U> godofredo, But now that I think of it how are you going to buy stuff from iTunes without a network connection :)
[09:38] <Dr_willis> oxeimon,  of course. 'sudo reboot' or 'sudo halt'
[09:38] <oxeimon> ah kk
[09:38] <Tlink> oxeimon shutdown -r NOW
[09:39] <xman> Newbie_Dude, play around with the volume control, it happens
[09:39] <oxeimon> k thanks
[09:39] <oxeimon> sudo reboot worked
[09:39] <fsckr> stefg: ty i have read it just didn't quite understand the syntax thats all
[09:39] <godofredo> Jordan_U, After The Disk Is Done Being Created, Can I Edit That?
[09:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: now try                   sudo ifup ppp0
[09:39] <Whosits> Is there anything aside from turning burn speed down that will increase the likeliness of the integrity check passing?
[09:39] <captainm> Whosits, try downloading the file again. Maybe your download is corrupted? this isn't a great ubuntu start ;)
[09:39] <Optimus55> okay
[09:39] <younghacker> u could just get idump sofware and steal all the songs off everyones ipod
[09:39] <younghacker> =)
[09:39] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Yes, you just can't change it while the virtual machine is running
[09:39] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: how do you bring up the connection tho. how to initiate the dial up?
[09:39] <Whosits> I've done 2 different downloads and I MD5'd them both
[09:39] <godofredo> Jordan_U, I Thought That Question Was Referring To Others Using That VMWare Installation?
[09:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: then     sudo pon sprint
[09:40] <younghacker> can someone help me uninstall mysql
[09:40] <Whosits> they came up as fine
[09:40] <crolle17> Jordan_U, maybe a driver-problem? the player is running, but no sound (i got new hardware).
[09:40] <Whosits> I'm trying the LiveCD instead of the Alternate this time
[09:40] <Jordan_U> crolle17, Does it give an error?
[09:40] <Fred> younghacker, why would you want to do that?
[09:40] <Whosits> (this third time)
[09:40] <captainm> Whosits, I can't think if anything else to try either
[09:40] <stefg> fsckr: and if there's files in it that you'll want the -R switch
[09:40] <Whosits> Yeah. I mean, they're verbatim discs, it's not a shoddy brand
[09:41] <crolle17> Jordan_U, no. simply no sound. i use an onboard-soundcard of asus...
[09:41] <younghacker> i just set up postgres and i want to use my db as a backend app,, postgres is working a lot better,, unless i need mysql
[09:41] <fsckr> ty stefg
[09:41] <younghacker> id want my diskspace back cause this is a VM I am on
[09:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: Do you see any errors
[09:41] <Enron> How do I install rpm on ubuntu without alien
[09:41] <Newbie_Dude> @Crolle17: I'm using ASUS onboard too and am getting no sound at all. xD
[09:41] <tayknight> does anyone know if munin needs to have a cron entry (munin doesn't seem to be doing anything, but munin-node is running).
[09:41] <GSMX> i have problems with terminal, every 'sudo' i type, it asks for a password, but i can't type anything
[09:41] <Comrade-Sergei> can some one walk me through this - http://www.joachim-gehweiler.de/en/software/andlinux.php
[09:41] <Enron> can't I install rpm ?
[09:41] <younghacker> alien
[09:42] <Jack_Sparrow> !alien
[09:42] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[09:42] <stefg> !alien | Enron
[09:42] <ubotu> Enron: please see above
[09:42] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: well i'm going to test it now
[09:42] <Fred> !ubotu
[09:42] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[09:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: good luck
[09:42] <sparkling> hi all
[09:42] <Enron> Without Alien
[09:42] <Fred> !dosemu
[09:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dosemu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:42] <GreenJello^Work> is there a default password for ubuntu?  i need to log in as root and when installed they never asked me if i wanted to set a root password
[09:42] <pi4> oh yes! I solved my problem, the openoffice.org file in /var/cache was corrupted, I don't know why aptitude didn't notice but well
[09:42] <Jordan_U> crolle17, Do any applications give sound?
[09:42] <crolle17> Newbie_Dude, true? what did you do?
[09:42] <Optimus55> the pc with the evdo card is the one i'm on now, so i'm going to reboot into ubuntu and try it
[09:42] <godofredo> Jordan_U, How To I Change Those Settings Back....? ? ? ??
[09:42] <sparkling> is it possible to load mirc script into Xchat?
[09:42] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: Thanks a lot
[09:42] <younghacker> jeez luise @ WindoZe breaking through my VM session to tell me to restart for updates to take effect
[09:42] <maximander> meh, fsck died with exit status 1 (after touching /forcefsck and rebooting)
[09:42] <younghacker> smh
[09:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: I did my best on something I know nothing about
[09:42] <stefg> !root | Greenj
[09:42] <ubotu> Greenj: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo

[09:43] <younghacker> help i want mysql gone
[09:43] <GreenJello^Work> ubotu: i messed up my account and need to fix it.. i turned on desktop effects and now the screen went blank white and i can't do anything
[09:43] <GreenJello^Work> i tried restarting X and relogging in, same thing
[09:43] <Jordan_U> !sound | crolle17
[09:43] <ubotu> crolle17: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[09:44] <younghacker> Desktop effects suk
[09:44] <SlimeyPete> uboto is a computer program (a bot), not a person
[09:44] <GreenJello^Work> i know that now
[09:44] <crolle17> Jordan_U, there somebody in this # who has the same problem (Newbie_Dude)
[09:44] <GreenJello^Work> yeah, it just told me that
[09:44] <Newbie_Dude> At my school the teacher has been teaching us SQL with a program called "SQL Server 2005 Express," I used to use that on Windows XP, but now obviously I am an Ubuntu user, is there an equivelant to SQL Server 2005 Express? Primarily for education.
[09:44] <GreenJello^Work> so any suggestions on fixing my desktop?
[09:44] <Whosits> lol, The first time I didn't actually do a CD integrity check _before_ the install, so it installed, and didn't let me choose packages, but everything else was fine. So it booted into GRUP, went into ubuntu, I logged in, and (me being pretty much brand new to linux command line stuff) I type man sudo - "man is not a recognised command" - it was disconcerting to say the least.
[09:44] <GreenJello^Work> since i can't log in as root
[09:44] <HOT> Newbie_Dude: MySql ?
[09:44] <Comrade-Sergei> can some one walk me through this - http://www.joachim-gehweiler.de/en/software/andlinux.php
[09:45] <Newbie_Dude> @crolle17: I dunno man, maybe our ASUS onboard isn't supported by Ubuntu? I'm gonna go out and grab a 20 dollar SoundBlaster and try it next week.
[09:45] <John`> hey scott
[09:45] <younghacker> it looks like postgres is the same
[09:45] <LinuxProbie> I'm actually looking for a good PHP development program that has syntax highlighting and such.
[09:45] <John`> you there?
[09:45] <maximander> Newbie_Dude: postgresql
[09:45] <GreenJello^Work> i'd hate to have to reinstall ubuntu over a broken desktop
[09:45] <younghacker> with the pgadmin GUI like maximander said
[09:45] <younghacker> this rocks @ maximander
[09:45] <maximander> LinuxProbie: eclipse
[09:45] <crolle17> Newbie_Dude, i have one (very old) at home and will try it too.
[09:45] <stefg> GreenJello^Work: i see... sudo apt-get remove --purge compiz (in the hope that gnome falls back to sane defaults)
[09:45] <Jordan_U> GreenJello^Work, Log in to a failsafe gnome session
[09:46] <Jordan_U> GreenJello^Work, It's in the session menu at the login screen
[09:46] <GreenJello^Work> how do you do that?
[09:46] <Newbie_Dude> @crolle17: Of course if someone here can get our sound to work it would be awesome. :) But, I read the Ubuntu hardware compability wiki and it said that the highest compatibility for sound was from Creative (sound blaster)
[09:46] <maximander> LinuxProbie: I use eclipse with php ide and subversion at work and at home, moving between ubuntu (home) and XP (work) all with the same IDE, try it
[09:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: You still here?
[09:46] <citronio> although i installed ubuntu from a cd-dvd drive, the drive is not available anymore. it is not recognized and is nowhere to be seen in the hardware manager. any ideas?
[09:46] <Newbie_Dude> @Everyone: Thanks for all the answers, showertime. :)
[09:46] <GreenJello^Work> stefg:  i can't get to a terminal
[09:47] <Jordan_U> Newbie_Dude, Have you tried making sure that all the channels are turned up and unmuted in alsamixer?
[09:47] <photo_nut> does anyone know if the AMD sempron mobile is a 32 or 64 bit processor
[09:47] <stefg> GreenJello^Work: ctrl-alt-F1 ?
[09:47] <maximander> GreenJello^Work: boot into single user mode?
[09:47] <GreenJello^Work> i'll try..  booting up again.. i was about ready to just reinstall..  this is a fresh install
[09:47] <LinuxProbie> maximander: would it move from eclipse to zend fairly easily?
[09:47] <Newbie_Dude> @Jordan_U: I've tried that, but maybe I plugged it into the wrong jack... There's like 6 different sound jacks in the back and one in the front. I'll experiment after my shower. xD
[09:48] <maximander> Zend being the ide, the framework or the platform?
[09:48] <godofredo> Jordan_U AFK Again :)?
[09:48] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Sure :)
[09:48] <godofredo> Jordan_U, How Can I Make My Virtual Operating System Boot From A CD In The Host's CDROM Drive
[09:49] <coopster> has anyone else ever run into an issue where mdadm insists on marking a partition as a spare in a raid?  i have 2 logical partitions on /dev/sdc, and they both fark-up the RAID they are in, because they both get treated as spares
[09:49] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Go to the vm -> settings
[09:49] <stefg> GreenJello^Work: don't panic.... catch the grub menu at boot, go to single mode. this will bring you to a root terminal console. apt-get remove --purge compiz (or just add another user with adduser)
[09:49] <godofredo> Jordan_U, K
[09:49] <ilu> can someone explain what happens to installed apps in linux? were do the installed files end up?
[09:49] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Then What?
[09:50] <stefg> !apt | ilu
[09:50] <ubotu> ilu: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[09:50] <maximander> what's the difference between adduser and useradd -m ?
[09:50] <tupa> in your experience, what is the most compressing algorithm?, I need to send big files to a friend over internet
[09:50] <GenNMX> !man | maximander
[09:50] <ubotu> maximander: The "man" command brings up the Linux manual pages for the command you're interested in. Try "man intro" at the command line, or see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[09:50] <stefg> nicer dialogs
[09:50] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Go to the cdrom drive, it is pretty self explanatory from there
[09:50] <photo_nut> Is there a 64 bit version of Ubuntu?
[09:50] <SlimeyPete> yes.
[09:50] <captainm> ilu, type "man hier " (without the quotes) in a terminal
[09:50] <xoqa_> dpkg: error processing openoffice.org-evolution (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[09:50] <GenNMX> photo_nut: Yep, there are even non-x86 versions
[09:50] <Enron> i'm trying to use dkms build --kernelsource but I don't know where the source build is, I can't locate the build Please help
[09:50] <SlimeyPete> it's available from the download page on the website.
[09:50] <xoqa_> how can i get rid of that?
[09:51] <xoqa_> it's driving me crazy,the error keeps getting longer and longer everytime i try to install something.
[09:51] <photo_nut> If I installed a 64 bit version on a 32 bit processor what happens?
 thanks sir
[09:51] <stefg> xoqa_: sudo apt-get -f install
[09:51] <Dr_willis> photo_nut,  what processor? the amd64 cpus can handle both.
[09:51] <GenNMX> photo_nut: It won't work, period ;)
[09:51] <Jordan_U> godofredo, If there isn't a cdrom drive add it ( you can also add a virtual ethernet controller so the vm can connect to the internet )
[09:51] <i9> does anybody know of a device or software that records the phone numbers on a land line that are dialed?
[09:52] <photo_nut> I have a AMD Sempron Mobile and it says on one of the product sheets 64 bit and 32 bit
[09:52] <neverblue> can I port scan a specific port?
[09:52] <Enron> Wheres the Ubuntu server room
[09:52] <neverblue> to see what service is running on it?
[09:52] <photo_nut> So i am confused and was wondering if there is an advantage to the 64 bit one?
[09:52] <godofredo> Jordan_U, It's Not Booting From My CD-Rom Drive :(
[09:52] <stefg> photo_nut: you'll want the 32bit edititon anyway
[09:52] <Thanatos> neverblue: Yes, I believe nmap has that function.
[09:52] <Dr_willis> photo_nut,  theres no real need for most peopel to use 64bit
[09:52] <Jack_Sparrow> neverblue: I use grc.com for checking my security
[09:52] <godofredo> Jordan_U, That May Foil My Plan :(
[09:52] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Is it set to?
[09:52] <photo_nut> What is the advantage of the 64 bit edition?
[09:53] <godofredo> Jordan_U, /dev/cdrom
[09:53] <maximander> being able to use ram
[09:53] <photo_nut> Why is that stefg?
[09:53] <GenNMX> photo_nut: Depends on what you use it for -- 64-bit is only good for very intensive tasks optimized for 64-bit, like video rendering, stressful algorithms such as in physics, etc.
[09:53] <Jordan_U> godofredo, You may need to hit escape at boot to choose to boot from CD
[09:53] <Vassili> http://pastebin.com/m399b2795 Can someone help me with this script?
[09:53] <photo_nut> Mostly I use the laptop to manage my video and edit the video and store images
[09:53] <neverblue> or is telnet used to check the port, for the service running on it?
[09:53] <ny00123> photo_nut, IF you're gonna develop...oh
[09:53] <stefg> photo_nut: some important codecs and packages don't run on 64bit libs.... endless trouble for negligible performance gains in 64bit mode
[09:54] <xoqa_> stefg: that didn't work.
[09:54] <ny00123> 64-bit may be good for development (e.g. in C/C++) as you'd find errors which are 'invisible' in 32-bit.
[09:54] <maximander> photo_nut: i accedentally install ubuntu-server i386 on my dual xeon-emt64 and now that i put another 2gb of ram in it, i still can't let mysql use it all since i didn't install x64
[09:54] <godofredo> Jordan_U, So Far It Is Working :) Gracias Amigo.
[09:54] <mortuis99> is 64 bit good for running servers?
[09:54] <ny00123> (e.g. assuming that sizeof(int)=sizeof(long))
[09:54] <stefg> xoqa_: what error?
[09:54] <Jordan_U> godofredo, de nothing :)
[09:54] <xoqa_> stefg: same
[09:54] <godofredo> Jordan_U, :)
[09:54] <photo_nut> I see.
[09:54] <cmo-0> hello
[09:54] <photo_nut> Thank you guys.
[09:55] <beni> !grub > beni
[09:55] <stefg> xoqa_: openoffice got updated yesterday, might be that the evo-package isn't updated yet
[09:55] <maximander> stefg: umm, not everyone cares about codecs more than being able to use >3.2G ram at a time
[09:55] <citronio> i cannot mount my cd-dvd drive. it is not recognized anywhere, although I installed ubuntu from it!!!! any ideas?
[09:55] <Thanatos> citronio: did you check the cables?
[09:55] <photo_nut> The other thing I was wondering is this.  I have a laptop that has wireless on it that works fine with ubuntu LTS 6.06 but the wireless doesnt work on the higher versions any ideas why?
[09:56] <Jordan_U> maximander, Save all of the relevant config files and re-install 64 bit ?
[09:56] <xoqa_> stefg: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29696/
[09:56] <godofredo> Jordan_U, I Like The Idea Of A Virtual OS, If There Ever Was A Virus, It Wouldn't Corrupt My Linux Install Or Boot
[09:56] <cmo-0> i'm trying to change screen resolution. i've tried editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf to add 1280x1024 res. but it does not appear in the droplist of System>Preferences>Screen Resolution
[09:56] <p99> citonio: make sure you cd drive is closed and then reboot.
[09:56] <maximander> Jordan_U: i don't have serial console
[09:56] <Jordan_U> maximander, What do you have?
[09:56] <citronio> thx, Thanatos... it is built in the laptop. when I insert a cd it spins etc but does not mount, and I do not have access to the cd inserted after finished
[09:56] <user101> guyz... doesn't the ubuntu repository have gcc?
[09:57] <captainm> cmo-0, did you restart x-server?
[09:57] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Now Once You Are Done With That Other Dude, How Do I Allow This Install To Access The Internet?
[09:57] <maximander> Jordan_U: now that it's racked and I am on the west cost for the next 4 months? SSH and not rebooting it
[09:57] <Thanatos> citronio: But it recognizes the drive, just that fact that nothing is in it?
[09:57] <Jordan_U> photo_nut, What chipset is your card?
[09:57] <LinuxProbie> is eclipse also a good testing platform? Can you debug and view code output or so you need to upload to a server for it?
[09:57] <stefg> xoqa_: hmmm, did you mess with your /etc/apt/sources.list ? used automatix?
[09:57] <cmo-0> yes -
[09:57] <photo_nut> Jordan_U how would I find out?
[09:57] <Enron> How do I download Kernel source for Ubuntu, I Need it for DKMS
[09:57] <p99> citonio: I have a laptop too. It will only reconize the cd drive if it is closed when I boot. Try booting with a cd to check it still works properly
[09:58] <HHP2K> Does anyone here have VisualBoyAdvance?
[09:58] <citronio> Thanatos, no I don't think so, it does not appear in the hardware manager...
[09:58] <Jordan_U> photo_nut, lspci
[09:58] <cmo-0> does Ubuntu saves screen res. preferences into another file?
[09:58] <Thanatos> citronio: Hrm. No clue =/
[09:58] <mhz`> maxim, have them ship it back, fix it and mail it back to the colo

[09:59] <xoqa_> stefg: i upgraded to gutsy gibbon
[09:59] <HHP2K> Does anyone have VisualBoyAdvance working on ubuntu?
[09:59] <captainm> cmo-0, if you use a intel graphics chip you can download 915 resolution, otherwise listen to the other guys :P
[09:59] <laraAJ> greets
[09:59] <cmo-0> Jordan_U: under Debian 4, this works perfectly
[09:59] <Pricey> HHP2K, #ubuntu+1
[09:59] <Jordan_U> cmo-0, Adding a resolution to your xorg.conf won't help if the driver you are using doesn't support it
[09:59] <Pricey> HHP2K, gutsy is not supported in this channel
[09:59] <Jordan_U> cmo-0, What GFX card?
[09:59] <cmo-0> Ati 9550
[09:59] <user101> hey... where do i find ubuntu kernel sources?
[10:00] <citronio> ScorpKing, this is what I found in the fstab: /dev/hda        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
[10:00] <alexIdoia> say I have done a python script that I have put on a shortcut key, where do I put this script to keep an OS tidy ?
[10:00] <Pricey> user101, sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[10:00] <p99> ati has the propper drivers on there website
[10:00] <Jordan_U> cmo-0, Have you tried Restricted Manager?
[10:00] <user101> thx pricey
[10:00] <LinuxProbie> I also need a good GUI Ftp client, what's good?
[10:00] <maximander> mhz`: that's a alot of downtime to cross the country, and expensive... it'd be cheaper to pay them to roll a crash cart over and do the install... but i don't trust them. and since it's in production and can't afford downtime of shipping, it's just gonna leave the ram empty
[10:00] <stefg> xoqa_: ok, then this is completly /your/ problem... gutsy is alpha, support is in #ubuntu+1 and it's promised to break at some point. reinstall feisty
[10:00] <cmo-0> ?
[10:00] <Newbie_Dude> What are some of the advantages of switching to Ubuntu from Windows XP? So far I'm enjoying it but I'm afraid the scope of benefits surpass my current perception.
[10:00] <Pricey> user101, they will then be in /usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[10:00] <cmo-0> i'm using sudo
[10:00] <alexIdoia> anyone ?
[10:00] <godofredo> LinuxProbie, gFTP
[10:00] <gaten> how can you blacklist updates? such as I don't want nvidia=glx to update itself, how can i stop the update manager from checking for an update to it
[10:00] <HHP2K> Pricey: what do you mean? I'm not talking about gutsy, just visual boy advance.. what does that have to do with gutsy?
[10:00] <Jordan_U> cmo-0, Does your card work better with fglrx?
[10:00] <godofredo> LinuxProbie, Or If You Have Firefox Installed, Use The Extension, FireFtp
[10:00] <xoqa_> stefg: k. :C
[10:01] <xoqa_> :P
[10:01] <Jordan_U> cmo-0, System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager
[10:01] <Pricey> HHP2K, using anything on gutsy doesn't go in this channel.
[10:01] <ScorpKing> citronio: looks ok and should work. tried to mount in manualy?
[10:01] <xoqa_> stefg: thanks for sticking with me :)
[10:01] <HHP2K> Pricey: I'm on Fiesty though.
[10:01] <cmo-0> okay: i'm enabling it right now ..........
[10:01] <markrian> How do you search through ubuntu mailing list archives?
[10:01] <citronio> ScorpKing, I tried... no joy...
[10:01] <maximander> mhz`: i suppose i could basically create a 64bit libs dir, install 64bit mysql, install a 64 bit kernel, reboot and hope
[10:01] <GSMX> if i execute a 'sudo' command, terminal asks for a password, but terminal doesn't let me typ anything (the keyboard seems stuck, but i still can typ in other programs)
[10:01] <Pricey> HHP2K, ok :)
[10:01] <Jordan_U> cmo-0, It will tell you that you need to restart, all you really need to do is restart X
[10:02] <citronio> ScorpKing, any suggestion to mount? (maybe I am not using the right command...)
[10:02] <maximander> mhz`: but being remote makes that too risky
[10:02] <cmo-0> /etc/init.d/ ..... restart
[10:02] <HHP2K> GSMX: Type your password even if the keyboard seems stuck, that's just how the terminal acts.
[10:02] <ScorpKing> citronio: sudo mount /dev/hda .no massage/ error when mounting from console?
[10:02] <Jordan_U> GSMX, It won't show anything but just type your password and hit return
[10:02] <cmo-0> or in nephew terms logout
[10:02] <rolfen> what's the executable to the "volume manager"?
[10:02] <cmo-0> Z
[10:02] <cmo-0> l?
[10:02] <Jordan_U> cmo-0, Yes, or ctrl+alt+backspace
[10:03] <photo_nut> Does the  Network controller: RaLink RT2500 802.11g Cardbus/mini-PCI (rev 01) work with the new Ubuntu?
[10:03] <alexou>  ati 9200 driver fglrx with overlay / video is cut
[10:03] <GSMX> thanks
[10:03] <user101> ok... next issue.... why does the nvidia driver installer tell me that i haven't got libc... when i got gcc.. which i think should come along with libc?
[10:03] <GSMX> it works
[10:03] <GSMX> :)
[10:03] <alexou_>  ati 9200 driver fglrx with overlay / video is cut
[10:03] <stefg> photo_nut: with ndiswrapper
[10:03] <photo_nut> Oh because it worked no issues with 6.06
[10:04] <ozzman> Hello, i want to install drivers fro my ATI X1900 GT
[10:04] <ozzman> help
[10:04] <HHP2K> So since I've established that I'm not on Gutsy, is -anyone- familiar with the installation of Visual Boy Advance on Ubuntu Fiesty?
[10:04] <citronio> ScorpKing, there is an error with the command: mount: special device /dev/hda does not exist. Could it be sda5 instead? (it still does not work though)
[10:04] <ScorpKing> user101: i think a gcc-dev package or something is missing.
[10:05] <stefg> photo_nut: did it? then try again if it works out of the box
[10:05] <ScorpKing> citronio: ls /dev/ | less and see if it is there.
[10:05] <kac> Hello
[10:05] <younghacker> compile
[10:05] <Pirate_Hunter> HHP2K: just a thought have you tried installing it through synaptic cause i know its there
[10:05] <photo_nut> Ive tried several editions but only the 6.06 LTS works native
[10:05] <user101> ScorpKing: didn't find it on apt-get... dunno where i could find it...
[10:05] <ozzman> Hello, i want to install drivers fro my ATI X1900 GT
[10:05] <HHP2K> Pirate_Hunter: I never thought of that. Thanks!
[10:05] <maximander> hmm... are there any registery hive editors for linux (ala regedit?)
[10:06] <Jordan_U> HHP2K,  sudo apt-get install vbaexpress ?
[10:06] <pyros_pyrotica> maximander: I know trk includes one
[10:06] <zu> Hi !
[10:06] <kac> I could use some help.
[10:06] <stefg> photo_nut: so what? ndiswrapper isn't such a pita...
[10:06] <HHP2K> Jordan_U: I'll try that quickly. Thanks!
[10:06] <Jordan_U> HHP2K, np
[10:06] <photo_nut> pita?
[10:06] <zu> How can I change my address on shipit ?
[10:07] <citronio> ScorpKing: nothing like a cd or dvd drive in ls /dev/ no... :(
[10:07] <ScorpKing> user101: sorry, i'm on a windows box. :-( but it's needed to compile packages.
[10:07] <kac> I set my hostname to null and now my GUI admin utilities don't work because they can't resolve the name of the computer.
[10:07] <maximander> photo_nut: pain in the a**
[10:07] <photo_nut> stefg is ndiswrapper in synaptic?
[10:07] <kac> I can't figure out how to manually set the hostname and have it stick.
[10:07] <photo_nut> Ohhh PITA
[10:07] <ozzman> Hello, i want to install drivers fro my ATI X1900 GT (86_64) Help
[10:07] <stefg> photo_nut: pita : turkish kind of bread (which doesnt relate to pain in the *ss) :-)
[10:07] <kac> Ozzman, they made a suggestion
[10:08] <photo_nut> I just dont get why the wireless works in only the 6.06 LTS version of Ubuntu but not the 7.+ versions
[10:08] <maximander> kac: use `hostname` and edit your hostfile,
[10:08] <kac>  sudo apt-get install vbaexpress ?
[10:08] <Newbie_Dude> Well it looks like I gotta download the 32-bit Ubuntu version, seems Wine and a few other programs don't like AMD64... So I should get the "standard personal computer" version?
[10:08] <ScorpKing> citronio: i think it would be /dev/hda - primary master, /dev/hdb - primary slave, /dev/hdc - secondary master or /dev/hdd - secondary slave.
[10:08] <kac> Where do I find and how do I edit my hostfile?
[10:08] <maximander> sudo nano -w /etc/hosts
[10:09] <ilu> anyone here hot on elinks?
[10:09] <kac> sudo won't work.
[10:09] <ozzman> Who made?
[10:09] <ozzman> can see it
[10:09] <ozzman> cant
[10:09] <GSMX> how can i change my screen resolution to 1280x1024?? i really tried everything i could find in the documentation
[10:09] <kac> In order to use the root privillages I have to go into recovery mode.
[10:09] <kac> at boot up
[10:09] <ScorpKing> kac: sudo vi /etc/hostname or edit as root.
[10:09] <stefg> kac: man hostname
[10:10] <maximander> kac: sudo doesn't work?
[10:10] <ScorpKing> kac: or /etc/hosts
[10:10] <GSMX> even in the nvidea x-config screen, it only went till 1280x800
[10:10] <photo_nut> Is there a way to install Ubuntu without all the extra crap like openoffice?

[10:15] <maximander> kac: edit /etc/hosts
[10:15] <ny00123> Enron, sure you installed the full kernel sources, not just the headers? (should be found in /usr/include/linux)
[10:15] <stefg> Enron: so what are you trying to do (why do you need the kernel source)?
[10:15] <GSMX> socca: a 1280x1024 resolution instead of 1024x768

[10:16] <bonz> Anyone know why after I install the ati drivers and set my resolution 1600x1200, I have pieces of my screen also displaying at the bottom of the screen.
[10:16] <younghacker> u should use nat in the VM
[10:16] <user101> uhh... guyz... are the 100.14.11 nvidia drivers compatible with feisty? (Linux x86)
[10:16] <kac> maximander, Alright what do I put into the hosts file?
[10:16] <GSMX> nvidea geforce something
[10:16] <Jordan_U> GSMX, Have you tried Restricted Manager ?

[10:16] <Thanatos> 13:12 <photo_nut> One last thing. Is gnome really that much more of a drain on the CPU and RAM than XFCE?
[10:17] <Thanatos> I too, would like to know the answer to this.
[10:17] <GSMX> jordan_u: yes
[10:17] <maximander> find the line with your hostname (mine looks like<IP_ADDRESS>       seawolf.maximander.com seawolf )
[10:17] <GSMX> nvidea geforce 6100 btw
[10:17] <user101> hmm
[10:17] <user101> i just installed the drivers and got an error..
[10:17] <user101> i reinstalled them and seems to be working fine now
[10:17] <user101> or... lol...
[10:17] <kac> maximander, the line that looks like this?

[10:18] <Enron> stefg inorder to install acronis backup agent, I need to update snapapi module.

[10:18] <GSMX> i did use restricted manager: failed
[10:18] <younghacker> why can't i see my ftp site in my browser?, on my logging screen i get an accurate entry for everytime i enter my ftp site in the browser window however, i never get there it just keeps loading
[10:18] <Jordan_U> GSMX, That wasn't to you
[10:18] <user101> nope... i think i didn't restart after a kernel update... and i installed the driver on the old kernel... and then it tried to boot from the new one and it went nuts
[10:18] <citronio> ScorpKing: no joy... I keep on making a mistake and the help on mount appears...
[10:18] <ilu> !elinks
[10:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about elinks - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:19] <citronio> ScorpKing: I tried: mount /dev/sda /media/cdrom0 and says I need to specify a file system
[10:19] <LinuxProbie> maximander, One last question, I have eclipse installed, how to I get it to speak PHP?
[10:19] <Fedman> how can I reconfigure ubuntu after I changed ubuntu
[10:19] <Fedman> oops I ment my sound card
[10:19] <maximander> kac: usually right below that line is the one with your machine's name
[10:19] <ny00123> citronio, sure that /dev/sda is the cdrom?
[10:19] <ScorpKing> citronio: mount /dev/sda -t ISO9660 /media/cdrom0
[10:19] <citronio> ScorpKing: but where??!?!?! I tried iso9660 evrywhere but it does not work...
[10:20] <maximander> otherwise, you can easily just put your machine name *before* the word localhost, then insert a space
[10:20] <ScorpKing> citronio: then try the next one - sdb
[10:20] <Jordan_U> Fedman, asoundconf list
[10:20] <Fedman> I changed a cmedia one which got broke with a realtek one and now only right channel is working and alsamixer is crashing
[10:20] <citronio> ScorpKing: I'll try with the other sda's...
[10:20] <ny00123> citronio first, done as root with sudo? ;]  secondly
[10:20] <Fedman> Jordan_U: thx
[10:20] <ny00123> tried /dev/cdrom instead?
[10:20] <kac> maximander, My file looks like this: <IP_ADDRESS> localhost.localdomain localhost
[10:20] <kac> # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
[10:20] <Jordan_U> Fedman, then asoundconf set
[10:20] <citronio> ScorpKing: ok, thx a lot!!! (yes... i typed the sudo thing... ;) )
[10:21] <maximander> kac: so a good line might look like "<IP_ADDRESS>             seawolf localhost.localdomain localhost"
[10:21] <ScorpKing> citronio: does it work? change the hda to the correct sd* in /etc/fstab
[10:21] <ned__> whenever i try to make a partition on my blank drive with gparted, the drive somehow gets mounted right before it creates the partition and fails
[10:21] <kac> maximander, like I said I did something stupid that a windows machine, surprisingly wouldn't let me do. I set my hostname to an empty string. I believe it's called a null string.
[10:21] <maximander> LinuxProbie: look up the PHP IDE Feature
[10:21] <citronio> ScorpKing: I am on it... not yet
[10:22] <stefg> Enron: ok, i see.... this will be a pita. the trouble is that /theoretically/ the kernel source in the repos is the one of which the kernel is build. In practice it's always outdated, and you have to draw the source from git
[10:22] <maximander> kac: first thing first: run hostname <newname>
[10:22] <rafaelscj> What should I do to play .mpeg files?
[10:23] <voidmage> they should play automatically
[10:23] <Jordan_U> stefg, Really? That is pretty bad practice.
[10:23] <Jordan_U> rafaelscj, Double click them
[10:23] <maximander> then go edit the hosts file, putting the primary name of your machine before localhost on the <IP_ADDRESS> line
[10:23] <LinuxProbie> maximander, How?
[10:23] <ScorpKing> kac: if you open /etc/hostname you'll see the current hostname in there. change it if you dont like it.
[10:23] <Orraj> how do you install scanner drivers
[10:23] <stefg> Enron: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=485713
[10:23] <Enron> stefg I've done this before a long time ago we had the build dir I believe
[10:23] <socca> anyone to help me with Beryl -i have small quastion about drivers
[10:24] <kac> Hostname is an empty file
[10:24] <crolle17> hey guys. had problems with my onboard-sound. the i installed another soundcard and turned the onboard-sound off in the bios. now i have sound but the second hd is not mounted any more. wjhat could be the reason and how to solve it?
[10:24] <maximander> LinuxProbie: the built in update manager... lookup php ide feature install somewhere
[10:24] <ScorpKing> kac: then put your hostname in there.
[10:24] <crolle17> then
[10:24] <Jordan_U> socca, #ubuntu-effects
[10:24] <crolle17> what
[10:24] <ned__> HELP --> whenever i try to make a partition on my blank drive with gparted, the drive somehow gets mounted right before it creates the partition and fails
[10:24] <maximander> kac: sudo bash -c "echo \"newname\" > /etc/hosts "
[10:24] <citronio> ScorpKing: :( it didn't work. not with /dev/sda, sdb or /media/cdrom0 or /media/cdrom
[10:24] <Orraj> how do you install scanner drivers
[10:24] <LinuxProbie> maximander, Yah, I'm rummaging through that currently, nit having much luck...
[10:24] <IndyLucian> my System Monitor shows i have ssh-agent running so how do i configure it so i can connect to this computer from my other linux box
[10:25] <stefg> Enron: sudo apt-get install linux-source ... then you find a bz2 archive in /usr/src, which you'll have to unpack
[10:25] <kac> I'm trying, it's a restricted file so I need to set it's permissions. Or edit it in commandline (something I don't know how to do exactly at this moment.
[10:25] <kac> )
[10:25] <rafaelscj> I have been installed Intel High Definition Audio. Thank you
[10:25] <eBoxNet> IndyLucian ssh ip
[10:25] <maximander> kac: 1) open a terminal 2) sudo su -
[10:25] <mystix_2004> Is this motherboard and all its onboard features a good choice for a linux compatible system: ASUS M2N-SLI Deluxe? I've read some problems people had experienced with using it on the forums, and would like some opinions on it.
[10:25] <socca> Jordan_U: i think ATI drivers,is default ubuntu drivers enough or i must installl XGL?
[10:25] <ScorpKing> citronio: ok. can you mount it from the console and what is the command that you type to do that?
[10:26] <IndyLucian> couldn't connect to hose: connection refused
[10:26] <kac> ok I got the Sudo su to work
[10:26] <eBoxNet> ssh localhost (any firewall on?)
[10:26] <kac> I set my hostname
[10:26] <Jordan_U> socca, If your card is supported by the open source drivers then you can just turn on desktop effects
[10:26] <kac> I just did the echo
[10:26] <zbyhoo> bye
[10:26] <Jordan_U> socca, If you need fglrx then you need to use XGL
[10:26] <IndyLucian> oh, connect to the computer im on... i thought you meant to type the computer i wanted to connect to
[10:26] <maximander> try running "hostname"
[10:26] <ned__> forget this... :(
[10:26] <ozzman> HI, i am installing ATI drivers and i encountered a problem at this step sudo m-a build,install fglrx-kernel
[10:27] <citronio> ScorpKing: ??? not sure what you ask for... I tried: sudo /dev/sda -t iso9660 /media/cdrom0
[10:27] <IndyLucian> that blocked too
[10:27] <IndyLucian> ssh localhost did
[10:27] <eBoxNet> connect to the computer running the ssh server
[10:27] <ozzman> Kernel failed to build
[10:27] <citronio> ScorpKing: then tried the same with sda1, sda2, sda5 and sdb
[10:27] <IndyLucian> 'connection refused' i only have the default iptables in play
[10:27] <Andeh> Hi. Is it possible to send messages to offline people in GAIM? Cause my friend's "invisible" but he's sending me messages, and I cant send him messages!!!!!
[10:27] <IndyLucian> they are both running the server by default (been running since ubuntu install)
[10:27] <IndyLucian> but i have never configured it because i dont know how
[10:27] <citronio> ScorpKing: then changed /media/cdrom0 with /media/cdrom, and still did not work...
[10:28] <maximander> kac: what does "hostname" output ?
[10:28] <Andeh> It just saves them as a pounce to send when he gets online!
[10:28] <credits> hi. could anyone help me?
[10:28] <eBoxNet> r u sure?
[10:28] <maximander> credits: ?
[10:28] <IndyLucian> i see the process 'ssh-agent'
[10:28] <kac> Nainet
[10:28] <ScorpKing> citronio: what are the error messages?
[10:28] <kac> which is technically right
[10:28] <citronio> the answer is /dev/sda is already mounted or cdrom busy...
[10:28] <Orraj> how do you install scanner drivers if i have the driver file... do I have to run it through the terminal to compile it or do i  just place it into a directory? I'm at a loss
[10:28] <Richter> Ol...
[10:28] <kac> but it gets reset when I start the computer again

[10:28] <ScorpKing> citronio: type mount
[10:28] <eBoxNet> i don't think thats the ssh server (i am not so sure but..)
[10:28] <ozzman> HI, i am installing ATI drivers and i encountered a problem at this step sudo m-a build,install fglrx-kernel
[10:28] <kac> I think though that the echo thing you told me to do worked
[10:28] <maximander> kac: ok, now, go edit the /etc/hosts file
[10:29] <ScorpKing> citronio: is the cd mounted?
[10:29] <maximander> kac: nano -w /etc/hosts
[10:29] <ozzman> I tried to force it with module-assistant -f
[10:29] <Jordan_U> socca, Use compiz then, there really isn't that big of a difference

[10:30] <eBoxNet> i sent u a link
[10:30] <IndyLucian> so i should do apt-get install openssh-server
[10:30] <kac> so it should be <IP_ADDRESS> [NewName]  localhost.localdomain [newName] ?
[10:30] <eBoxNet> yes
[10:30] <Jordan_U> rafaelscj, What happens when you try to play it in totem ( movie player ) ?
[10:30] <ScorpKing> citronio: if you just type mount it will show a list of the mounted devices.
[10:30] <maximander> kac: the newname at the end is unneeded, but yes
[10:30] <eBoxNet> and then u can connect using ssh ip
[10:30] <kac> ok
[10:30] <maximander> save that by hitting ctrl-o
[10:31] <socca> Jordan_U: compiz run but i dont see any freature od 3D desktop,looks like standart,beril manager shows compiz runing,keys dont work
[10:31] <ozzman> simple q... how come when  su in terminal and then entering my pass does not allow me root access
[10:31] <citronio> ScorpKing: it is not listed no...
[10:31] <photo_nut> I have a USB external drive attached to my laptop. Is there a way to check it for errors before storing data on it?
[10:31] <rafaelscj> Totem... There isn't decod...
[10:31] <kac> maximander, alright I wrote that in, now how do I save?
[10:32] <ScorpKing> kac: after <IP_ADDRESS> you can specify more than one hostname with a space between them. i suggest you leave one of them on localhost
[10:32] <Jordan_U> socca, Have you installed all of the compiz packages for the settings manager and extra plugins?
[10:32] <stefg> photo_nut: man badblocks
[10:32] <ScorpKing> citronio: what are the hd's mounted as?
[10:32] <ozzman> ???
[10:32] <maximander> kac: ^^ "(01:30:56 PM) maximander: save that by hitting ctrl-o"
[10:32] <rafaelscj> no
[10:32] <ozzman> can any one help?
[10:32] <photo_nut> Thanks stefg
[10:32] <rafaelscj> standard instalation
[10:32] <Jordan_U> rafaelscj, Are you using 7.04 ?
[10:33] <SlimeyPete> !root
[10:33] <ubotu> do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[10:33] <SlimeyPete> ozzman: ^^... su doesn't work in ubuntu by default
[10:33] <SlimeyPete> use sudo instead
[10:33] <clea> I have a nForce4 board with spdif optical out that works well with 2.0 but it dosen't want to work with surround. is there any settings to fix this?
[10:33] <squarebottle> I'm using an Ubuntu LiveCD to get some files from a non-booting Windows system onto an external HD, but it didn't mount the external HD as writable. How do I make it writable?
[10:33] <rafaelscj> I am using 6.06
[10:33] <ScorpKing> ozzman: su username and then type the password of the username. sudo su fr root.
[10:33] <citronio> ScorpKing: I am pretty sure they are the sda, sda1, sda2 and sda5... although I don't know why there are  4...
[10:33] <stefg> !ntfs-3g | squarebottle
[10:33] <ubotu> squarebottle: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[10:33] <badkitty> quick question: if I can't get my external hard drive to mount in ubuntu (it is all gravy in windows) and it worked last night, how do I get it to mount?
[10:33] <Jordan_U> squarebottle, It should mount rw by default from the LiveCD
[10:33] <socca> Jordan_U: i just look and its instaled ok,Apt have no problem
[10:34] <citronio> ScorpKing: I should only have 2... 2 partitions for one hd...
[10:34] <ozzman> Thank you new to linux
[10:34] <maximander> kac: you get that to save?
[10:34] <Jordan_U> socca, And do you have the cube enabled in compiz-settings ?
[10:34] <Greyscale> mm, compiz
[10:35] <badkitty> <-- beryl and twinview is SWEET
[10:35] <stefg> badkitty: try a different usb-port first
[10:35] <squarebottle> Jordan_U: It didn't. :P stefg and ubotu: And I can install and use the ntfs3g from the LiveCD?
[10:35] <rafaelscj> Jordan_U: I am using 6.06
[10:35] <badkitty> stefg: ok I will, its just weird because it worked last night
[10:35] <kac> Maximander, I got it to save
[10:35] <ScorpKing> citronio: if you type mount you should see something like '/dev/hda1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
[10:35] <deathangel> Anyone know if your mac address changes automatically when you reformat ur hd?
[10:35] <Thanatos> Looks like Cmpiz/Beryl is the reason many people start using Ubuntu
[10:35] <maximander> kac, you should be done now
[10:35] <Jordan_U> squarebottle, It should be there by default, how did you mount it?
[10:35] <socca> Jordan_U: yes: cube enabled and bindind assumed,but dont work,thank for time i go search the problem
[10:35] <badkitty> stefg: didn't mount
[10:36] <stefg> badkitty: does it show up in sudo fdisk -l ?
[10:36] <ScorpKing> citronio: default is two, one for / and one for swap
[10:36] <citronio> ScorpKing: yes there is a: /dev/sda1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
[10:36] <squarebottle> Jordan_U: It mounted itself. It mounted the Windows partition just fine, it's the external USB hard drive that it mounted as ro.
[10:36] <ozzman> HI, i am installing ATI drivers and i encountered a problem at this step sudo m-a build,install fglrx-kernel
[10:36] <kac> looks like I am going to need to reset for the changes to take affect.
[10:36] <Jordan_U> ozzman, Did restricted manager not work?
[10:36] <ScorpKing> citronio: then your cd-rom should be sdb
[10:37] <SlimeyPete> ozzman: why are you doing it that way? you can install the drivers using the Restricted Hardware Manager or Synaptic.
[10:37] <kac> Thank you, all.
[10:37] <SlimeyPete> that is the "official" Ubuntu way of doing things.
[10:37] <godofredo> Jordan_U, It's Me Again :)
[10:37] <photo_nut> I have a USB drive on my laptop. When I try to paste something into the drive I am told that I do not have permission. Can anyone tell me how to get permission?
[10:37] <phob> gr
[10:37] <Jordan_U> ozzman, System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager
[10:37] <ozzman> i dont know my self
[10:37] <ozzman> lol
[10:37] <citronio> ScorpKing: this is the mount result: http://pastebin.com/d1f9d5c7d
[10:38] <SlimeyPete> ozzman: check out the Restricted Hardware Manager in the System menu first
[10:38] <SlimeyPete> if that doesn't work, try using Synaptic from the System menu
[10:38] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Oh, and add a virtual USB controller so the VM can connect to the ipod
[10:38] <SlimeyPete> if that also doesn't work then try to do things manually :)
[10:38] <badkitty> stefg: I don't think so.. i have a lot of drives, but I don't think any of these match
[10:38] <ozzman> well, are they the same drivers as on ATI amd site?
[10:38] <godofredo> Jordan_U, that is what i was going to ask :)
[10:38] <godofredo> Jordan_U, So select usb controller?
[10:38] <SlimeyPete> ozzman: more or less. A little older, but still fairly up-to-date.
[10:39] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Yes
[10:39] <godofredo> Jordan_U, where do i point it to on the host computer?
[10:39] <stefg> badkitty: then it's hardware failure (bad cable, worn out connectors)
[10:39] <mhz`> hmm, i wonder if my usb thumb drive is automatically picked up in ubuntu
[10:39] <mhz`> i'll have to try that out
[10:39] <Jordan_U> godofredo, I don't know, keep the default
[10:39] <badkitty> stefg: It works in windows though I have dual boot
[10:39] <ScorpKing> citronio: no cd-rom! have you tried booting from a live cd and checking what it gets mounted as?
[10:40] <stefg> badkitty: plug it in, then inspect dmesg if there's any sign that it got recognized
[10:40] <citronio> ScorpKing: i'll try, yes... thx... but i have the feeling I'll be back... ;)
[10:40] <citronio> ScorpKing: thx a lot man!
[10:40] <ScorpKing> citronio: good luck. i have to go now, sorry. hope you come right. cheers
[10:40] <ozzman> What is the next step?
[10:40] <citronio> ScorpKing: no bother... thx a lot!
[10:40] <Jordan_U> ozzman, There is no second step :)
[10:41] <ScorpKing> citronio: np
[10:41] <Jordan_U> ozzman, Well, you have to restart X for it to take effect
[10:41] <ozzman> how do i install the drivers? lol
[10:41] <Jordan_U> ozzman, System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager
[10:41] <badkitty> stefg: Ok it looks as if there were no errors... now what?
[10:42] <coopster> Is there a way to tell Ubuntu to run a certain command before unmounting a drive?
[10:42] <badkitty> ozzman, what are you trying to install?
[10:42] <IndyGunFreak> did xchat freeze up?
[10:42] <badkitty> cd /mnt
[10:43] <ozzman> Drivers for my ATI x1900 GT (X86_64)
[10:43] <IndyGunFreak> guess not.. never saw it so quiet here..lol
[10:43] <ceil420> what's a good (free) flash editor program thing? :o
[10:43] <stefg> badkitty: no errors? or no message (which means: not recognized) ?
[10:43] <mhz`> flash editor?
[10:43] <mhz`> like macromedia flash?
[10:43] <ozzman> I only have package manager
[10:43] <mhz`> or..
[10:43] <ceil420> yeah that one
[10:43] <badkitty> stefg: It looks as if there were no errors, however the drive did not show up on my desktop as it usually does
[10:43] <mhz`> dunno if there is a free thing
[10:44] <mhz`> ...www.google.com
[10:44] <mhz`> ?
[10:44] <badkitty> ozzman: what are you trying to install
[10:44] <ceil420> i've been all over google ;x
[10:44] <rec0m> ozzman: I think the package you want is xorg-driver-fglrx
[10:44] <ceil420> and sourceforge
[10:44] <Jordan_U> ozzman, Are the drivers listed in Restricted Manager?
[10:44] <ozzman> badkitty: Drivers for my ATI x1900 GT (X86_64)
[10:44] <stefg> badkitty: pastebin your dmesg
[10:44] <ceil420> i tried open office's presentation thing (which can make .swf files), but it's horrible tbh :x
