[18:51] <Krissed> wolf2385 i suppose i should try with no encryption on the router to begin with a bit later..
[18:51] <codazoda> Pulse Audio is uninstalled.  My sound is working like a champ.  Woot!
[18:51] <kub^^> hi i have a small issue with intrepid, i cant seem to find where to rename my host. i've read that doing it in /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname messes sudo. gksudo network-admin just runs then disapears
[18:51] <wolfey> Magnusmagnus: somethign like http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-24113.html
[18:51] <Titan8990> !info build-essential | [tggrBot]
[18:51] <Pici> !hostname | kub^^
[18:51] <Krissed> Magnusmagnus i did the same... well using wubi.. id guess you should try installing lilo
[18:51] <wolfey> Magnusmagnus: you boot ubuntu cd
[18:51] <wolfey> go to command line
[18:51] <wolfey> and reinstall grub
[18:52] <jwm> users and groups help anyone?
[18:52] <kub^^> ty pici
[18:52] <whitedox> In avidemux, I have put marker A and B at the beginning and end of the clip I want. Now how do I get rid of the rest? Or how do I put my selected clip in a new video file?.
[18:52] <Magnusmagnus> Alright, ill try it now
[18:52] <Magnusmagnus> Thanks alot!
[18:52] <filmore> jwm: I know a bit, what's up?
[18:52] <AmaroKeN> hello, how can i run .cue / .bin files on my ubuntu?
[18:52] <jwm> i'm trying to restrict a given user from network and USB ports
[18:53] <nickrud> Magnusmagnus, Add a line to boot.ini pointing to c:\wubildr.mbr should do it
[18:53] <Magnusmagnus> Oh
[18:53] <Magnusmagnus> Alright
[18:53] <Magnusmagnus> I'll do that right now
[18:53] <wolfey> btw that question i asked about cleaning apt-get... apt-get purge that_package :)
[18:53] <wolfey> i remembered old advice from here
[18:53] <AmaroKeN> no help?, kk
[18:53] <Magnusmagnus> Does vista also have a boot.ini?
[18:54] <wolfey> Magnusmagnus: well probably you still have valid grub config
[18:54] <wolfey> but you need to boot live cd now
[18:54] <wolfey> and try to get into your ubuntu system, just boot is from cd
[18:54] <Magnusmagnus> Grub is ubuntu's boot manager?
[18:55] <wolfey> Magnusmagnus: for all windows you just have grub continue with windows loader, which is both on MBR and on partition
[18:55] <Stekarn> Hi, is there anyone who knows how i can boot a .bin file?, or alternative .cue, i need to have XP aswell :)
[18:55] <lstarnes> Magnusmagnus: yes
[18:55] <Magnusmagnus> I've always used windows' boot manager, never grub.. does this matter?
[18:55] <wolfey> Stekarn: use 'k3b'(linux) or 'nero' in windows?
[18:55] <Stekarn> "k3b" ? ;o
[18:56] <grndslm_> anybody like xchat-gnome more than plain ol' xchat??
[18:56] <wolfey> Stekarn: but linux burners only do .iso, so you have bin2iso package
[18:56] <mmu_man> can someone tell me why ubuntu keeps old kernels and headers around ?
[18:56] <mmu_man> I had 3 of them here
[18:56] <wolfey> Stekarn: bin is cd image, cue is just some text info about it
[18:56] <mmu_man> removing the 2 older freed like 400MB :)
[18:56] <Stekarn> it's for my windows XP, so i can actually boot the install from here?
[18:56] <wolfey> no, you burn it on cd
[18:57] <Stekarn> oh
[18:57] <Dulak> mmu_man: when you update it's good to have the old kernel to fall back on if you have issue with the new one
[18:57] <wolfey> bin is probably size of cd, isnt it?
[18:57] <Stekarn> 500-600 ish
[18:57] <wolfey> it's precise bit image of cd
[18:57] <Dulak> mmu_man: but more than 1 old kernel is overkill
[18:57] <nickrud> mmu_man, I hope you used synaptic/apt-get to remove the kernels ;)
[18:57] <vigo> Backups ensure sanity.
[18:57] <mmu_man> nickrud: sure I did
[18:58] <Stekarn> wolfey, soo, sudo apt get k3b or what?
[18:58] <wolfey> vigo: just backup important data, you can reinstall the rest ;)
[18:58] <wolfey> Stekarn: sudo apt-get install k3b bin2iso
[18:58] <Stekarn> ah
[18:58] <wolfey> if you want to burn under linux
[18:58] <vigo> heh
[18:58] <mmu_man> of course it's useful to have a fallback, but 2...
[18:58] <wolfey> linux only does .iso
[18:58] <mmu_man> oh well
[18:58] <wolfey> nero in windows does everytzhing
[18:58] <mmu_man> I think Debian does it too anyway :^)
[18:59] <mmu_man> anyway, ++
[18:59] <jwm> anyone good at user permissions?
[18:59] <wolfey> hmm
[18:59] <werdnum> !ask
[18:59] <Stekarn> Couldn't find the package bin2iso
[18:59] <Stekarn> E: *
[18:59] <wolfey> Stekarn: http://techbycolin.com/?p=130 perhaps better folllow this
[18:59] <grndslm_> sudo make me a sandwich!
[18:59] <canesfan> Yes I am good at user permissions
[19:00] <wolfey> Stekarn: bin2iso looks like not here anymore, i used it long ago
[19:00] <wolfey> Stekarn: http://techbycolin.com/?p=130 perhaps better folllow this
[19:01] <Stekarn> i've never really gotten how the whole folder thing works in terminal, any1 able to help?
[19:01] <canesfan> ask a question and I will see what I can do Stekarn
[19:01] <wolfey> Stekarn: cd folder, cd .. to move up
[19:01] <bmeynell> firefox is covering up my ubuntu toolbar... how can I fix this?
[19:01] <wolfey> Stekarn: cd /et and pressing TAB key autocompletes
[19:01] <Stekarn> h
[19:01] <Stekarn> oh*
[19:02] <jwm> can anyone help to restrict a given user from using USB devices, CD's network, and system reconfiguration?
[19:02] <wolfey> Stekarn: ls   to list files
[19:02] <hatter243> bmeynell, hold alt, click and hold anywhere in the firefox window and drag it somewhere else
[19:02] <Stekarn> LS?, or is that an "i" ?
[19:02] <wolfey> ls = list files
[19:02] <bmeynell> hatter243: tried that. doesn't work :/
[19:02] <wolfey> ls *  (same as DOS dir *.*)
[19:02] <canesfan> that is easy jwm. Go to user permissions and uncheck the mount drives and removable media
[19:03] <Stekarn> what if...i want to get to my 3rd harddrive with only one partition, and then folder Downloads?
[19:03] <ardchoille> How do I download an entire site with wget?  "wget -m <url> isn't working: http://ardchoille.pastebin.com/m504d195b
[19:03] <hatter243> bmeynell, I'll bet you have Compiz's window snapping on and probably the wobbly windows too eh?
[19:04] <bmeynell> hatter243: indeed
[19:04] <Stekarn> or if i want to access a .bin file via binchunk @ my desktop?
[19:04] <iPeter-> Hello, i'am wondering how i can get my gnome menu to transparent
[19:04] <Stekarn> binchunkER
[19:04] <Stekarn> ;o
[19:04] <hatter243> bmeynell, if you turn those off for a second, the windows will stop strectching around and retain their shapes while you alt+drag them around
[19:05] <bmeynell> hatter243: k, thanks!
[19:05] <canesfan> Stekarn type mount in terminal you will see the mountpoint for that third hard drive and than just cd to that. so for example if you third hard drive has one partition and is not mounted which I can't imagine it would be something like this... /dev/hdc1
[19:06] <Brack10> I'm trying to activate a guest XP install on an Ubuntu host vbox with ver 2.1.2 non free.  Apparently my XP copy uses DMI information to activate (per Dell), so I tried setting the manufacturer to Dell Inc. with "VBoxManage setextradata" like it says when I run dmidecode -t1.  This did not work.  Can anyone help me with this? #vbox doesn't care
[19:06] <canesfan> Stekarn it may be /dev/sdc1 depending on the type of drive controller
[19:06] <Stekarn> NTFS harddrives?
[19:06] <nickrud> iPeter-, try asking in #compiz-fusion, they specialize in that
[19:06] <lea> hallo
[19:07] <canesfan> you can mount NTFS hard drives too
[19:07] <Stekarn> i know
[19:07] <canesfan> do a man on mount
[19:07] <canesfan> but you would create a directory and call it say winxp in your home folder
[19:07] <Stekarn> what was the name of that paste site again?
[19:08] <vigo> !pastebin
[19:08] <Stekarn> as in copy / paste
[19:08] <canesfan> than using the example above I gave you mount -t ntfs /dev/hdc1 /home/stekarn/winxp
[19:08] <Slart> Brack10: sounds like you're doing things with your OEM install you're not allowed to do..
[19:08] <wolter> the ubuntu brainstorm is down, right?
[19:08] <daedalus384> help. my hard drive crashed and i had to reinstall ubuntu, but the only version that would take was 7.04. i cant get 7.04 to upgrade at all.
[19:08] <Brack10> Slart: lame
[19:09] <Brack10> Slart:  This has to be possible though, right?
[19:09] <bullgard4> What does effect the switch a in the 'ip a' command? I tried to grep for a in 'man 8 ip' but could not find an explanation.
[19:09] <Stekarn> http://paste.ubuntu.com/110405/ so, Tankat, Dowloads, Win Xp > asd.Bin!
[19:09] <Stekarn> ( Example ) :P
[19:09] <Slart> Brack10: sure, but this isn't the place
[19:09] <Brack10> ok
[19:11] <Stekarn>  lol?
[19:11] <Slart> bullgard4: I would guess ip address
[19:12] <daedalus384> anybody know why i cant update or upgrade from 7.04?
[19:12] <Slart> bullgard4: I mean.. "ip a" is the same as "ip address".. perhaps you can find out what it means now
[19:13] <Slart> daedalus384: you've lost your keyboard? you can't see what you're doing? details will improve the answers.. perhaps even to some degree of usefulness =)
[19:13] <bullgard4> Slart: I am hurrying to find out.
[19:14] <Pici> daedalus384: 7.04 is no longer supported.  Please see this link for info on how to upgrade: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GutsyUpgrades#Fully%20updating%207.04
[19:15] <Stekarn> man!, i regret choosing ubuntu, it's waay to complicated for newbies ;p
[19:15] <daedalus384> thanks pici
[19:15] <gavi> i am using ubuntu for since 7.10 was out and i like it very much, but theres alot of things in it which windows was much better at. for example when i save a document, it doesnt direct me imediatly to /home/user/Documents but thats just one small things. windows has alot of these small things which ubuntu dont have. Regardless ubuntu cant get screewed with spyware like windows can.. anyone can give me their thought on the topic
[19:16] <Stekarn> Most games and filetypes are designed for windows aswell ;o
[19:16] <Slart> gavi: hmm.. are you sure about the documents thingy? I think at least open office does that.. anyways.. the question is perhaps more suited for #ubuntu-offtopic
[19:16] <whitedox> I have 53 images that I need to make into 1 gif. What is the easiest way to go about this?
[19:16] <VanessaE> gavi: well., on that particular note, it's because your *entire* home directory is available for your use
[19:16] <gavi> Stekarn, thats a big point, but for my computer purposes i never play games..
[19:17] <Slart> whitedox: check if imagemagick can't do it
[19:17] <gavi> Slart, i will take it there, excuese me
[19:17] <ZeroA4> Stekarn, that not an ubuntu problem...
[19:17] <Slart> gavi: no worries
[19:17] <VanessaE> For example, on my system, I use "Textfiles"
[19:17] <Dist-> is there any way to use XP or Vista drivers in ubuntu some how? im having an issue with audio output, its distorted in ubuntu, but fine if i run XP
[19:18] <VanessaE> dist: generally, no.
[19:18] <Slart> Dist-: there is ndiswrapper.. I'm not sure if it works for general stuff or only network cards..
[19:18] <bewst> Need help recovering.  My root partition is on LVM; the boot process says it doesn't exist, drops me into busybox, yet I can mount it.
[19:19] <Flannel> bewst: Is /boot on LVM?
[19:19] <whitedox> Slart, I have imagemagick, but I suck at command line stuff.
[19:19] <bewst> FLannel: no; I didn't think that was even possible
[19:19] <Slart> whitedox: perhaps there is a gui for imagemagick.. have you checked their site? or synaptic?
[19:19] <bastidrazor> whitedox; possibly gimp?
[19:19] <Dist-> its a shame, i thought intel hardware was usualy well supported on ubuntu, but its just this sound that doesn't seem to work right with whatever drivers come with ubuntu 8.10
[19:19] <bewst> Dist-: distortion is usually due to level settings somewhere in the arcane mixer pathways of Linux, not a driver issue
[19:19] <Flannel> bewst: It's not easy (you have to much around with temporary RAMDISKs and stuff) just wanted to make sure you had /boot off of LVM
[19:20] <bewst> Dist-: try double-clicking the speaker icon in your panel and fiddling
[19:20] <ZeroA4> whitedox, you should take a time to learn COS command line is great for batch processing
[19:20] <doglino> HOw I do to desintall a program in ubuntu?
[19:20] <NeoMatrixJR> is there anyway to tell what may be using a specific ioport?
[19:20] <Stekarn> how do i find my way to my desktop via terminal?
[19:20] <amorphous_> could anyone tell me if a dodgy network cable introduced to a network could shut down the whole network (slowly - slowing it to a stop until nothing remains...:(
[19:20] <Pici> Stekarn: cd ~/Desktop
[19:20] <Stekarn> cd?
[19:20] <bewst> Flannel: so I do.  Now what?  It sure seems to take a long time even to get there.  There's a long pause before GRUB menu comes up, for example
[19:20] <amorphous_> and...
[19:21] <ZeroA4> doglino, applications - add/remove
[19:21] <MikyMouse> ebox or wbemin? (and dont tell me that webmin is not longer supported), I am asking about featrues and ussability
[19:21] <ezerhoden> Stekarn: change directory
[19:21] <Slart> amorphous_: hard to say.. if it's placed in a very central/special location then perhaps.. if not.. I'd say unlikely
[19:21] <amorphous_> what is the best tools in the nettools package to test a network to see how efficient it is? is ping the best thing to use to check for lost packets?
[19:21] <doglino> ZeroA4 ok, it' true
[19:21] <doglino> ;)
[19:21] <Slart> MikyMouse: whatever the question is I don't think ebox is a good answer =)
[19:21] <Flannel> bewst: Before GRUB?  that's odd.  Does it POST within a normal time?  I'm not really sure what would cause that.  Since thats mostly just BIOS stuff and then stage1.
[19:21] <Dist-> what is PCM in the mixer panel?
[19:22] <Stekarn> i'll mainly wanna find my files easily, since i need to find em so i can burn a ISO from the .bin and .cue files i got
[19:22] <MikyMouse> Slart, got you ;=
[19:22] <amorphous_> Slart - it links to some Power over Ethernet... that give any clues?
[19:22] <bewst> Flannel: I have never been sure what POST is, but I think it is slow :-)
[19:22] <Joker_-_> hey there, can anyone help with that?: http://rafb.net/p/TGH6Pg43.html
[19:22] <Slart> Dist-: kind of like "wave" in some windows drivers
[19:23] <Dist-> that seems to be the problem
[19:23] <Trunks__> spanish?
[19:23] <bewst> Dist-: Don't start asking what those sliders mean; it's totally inscrutable.
[19:23] <shubbar> i have a WD external harddisk that is not shown when connected
[19:23] <Slart> amorphous_: nah... don't really know what could go wrong with poe.. but I suppose it shouldn't affect anything other than the computers at the ends of that cable
[19:23] <Dist-> if i lower PCM to much lower (it was at about 70%), and increase the master, the sound is much better
[19:23] <Trunks__> how can i mount a fat partition with total access to all users?
[19:24] <Slart> shubbar: run this in a terminal, "tail -f /var/log/syslog".. disconnect the drive, reconnect it... wait a couple of seconds.. pastebin whatever showed up in the terminal window (ctrl+c to close that command when you're done)
[19:24] <Dist-> im not sure how PCM differs from master, since PCM alters the volume just like master, not sure why it distorts it as it increases
[19:24] <Slart> !pastebin | shubbar
[19:24] <bewst> Dist-: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/187848 :-)  Enjoy.
[19:24] <Joker_-_> Trunks__: moun tit in a directory to wich all users have access... thats pretty much it
[19:24] <filthpig> will the kde4.2 package be available in hardy repos, or will I have to upgrade (to jaunty?) to get it in a repo?
[19:24] <bewst> Flannel: yst?
[19:25] <MikyMouse> What about Catalyst?
[19:25] <amorphous_> Slart - that's what I would'v thought, but as soon as I connect it everything goes down. With only the POE cables/boxes there's no probs, but as soon as a pc/mac goes on the network crumbles. Is there anythign I could check for?
[19:25] <Trunks__> joker:chmod 777 <dir>
[19:25] <Pici> filthpig: Probably not.  There may be ppas available.  See #kubuntu
[19:25] <Joker_-_> Trunks__: yeah, should do the trick.
[19:26] <Trunks__> don't work
[19:26] <Stekarn> is it easier just using CDEmu to start my Windows XP install?, even if it's a .bin file?
[19:26] <Joker_-_> Trunks__: fat systems doesnt have any sort of ownership from what I know
[19:26] <Slart> amorphous_: hmm.. I'm not really good with networking on that level.. I would start capturing packages.. see if something weird pops up.. then I would go on irc and ask if someone had any better ideas =)
[19:27] <Joker_-_> Trunks__: you can always try to chmod -R a+xrw /your/directory/with/drive/mounted
[19:27] <Joker_-_> Trunks__: could take some time to execute if theres is a lot of files, and note that all file permission will be recursively resetted.
[19:27] <amorphous_> Slart, I'm a bit noob (sorry) - could you just give me a few pointers on the 'capture packages' bit - just need a start, i can fumble from there...
[19:27] <Joker_-_> Trunks__: altho I dont think fat systems have any
[19:29] <v0rt3_x86> I'm attempting to install Ubuntu 8.10 onto an HP OmniBook Pro XE2 DC. 4 GB HDD, 256 MB RAM, 400 or 450 MHz processor. After the splash screen with the progress bar loads, it goes to a console vs. actually installing. Anyone know of how to get past this?
[19:29] <Trunks__> 256 MB RAM, 400 or 450 MHz processor
[19:29] <bieb> just installed ubuntu8.10, what are the best players for listening to mp3s?
[19:29] <Slart> amorphous_: wireshark would be one tool.. see what kind of traffic flows through.. see what changes when you connect the weird cable.. I'm not really sure what to look for but perhaps something will stand out
[19:30] <hatter243> !mp3 | bieb
[19:30] <Trunks__> bieb that is personal
[19:30] <hatter243> =/ Sorry bieb, I thought that would have more information
[19:30] <bieb> thanks hatter
[19:30] <alanbshepard70> When I try to mute my laptop speakers by using the icon top right of my screen if a sound tries to play my speakers crackle. I've found that if I mute both the PCM and Master sound vol control this doesn't happen. What commands can be run to do this at a single click? i.e. I can make a script that a shortcut can call for quite and painless muting and unmuting.
[19:30] <v0rt3_x86> Trunks__  - So it can't run the GUI?
[19:30] <Stekarn> how do i get CDEmu??
[19:30] <Joker_-_> Trunks__: if it still doesnt work, I'm missing something. You can always have a look at squash or squas_fs... something like that. I know it works with network file systems, but never read on using that for local drive
[19:30] <Trunks__> v0rt3_x86: i gues
[19:30] <amorphous_> thanks Slart - very appreciated.
[19:30] <Trunks__> s
[19:30] <Trunks__>  Joker_-_: umask
[19:30] <Slart> amorphous_: good luck figuring out what is wrong

[19:33] <crashflow> is there a GUI for wget?

[19:33] <Joker_-_> Trunks__: so, it worked or not?
[19:33] <v0rt3_x86> Trunks__: I can't wrap my head around it running XP but not even XFCE. Can you think of anything else it could be?

[19:34] <phorensic> Whats up foos
[19:34] <hatter243> alanbshepard70, that's a strange problem... If you've bent on the script solution, have you tried aumix -v <volume> ?
[19:34] <Trunks__>  Joker_-_: am trying, anyway thx :)
[19:34] <amorphous_> thx, slart
[19:34] <mst__> Hey, does anyone know how I can change the default bootloader to LILO from GRUB, i.e. when I install a new kernel ubuntu automatically updates lilo to the MBR rather than GRUB?
[19:34] <alanbshepard70> hatter243: No I haven't tried it but I will now.
[19:35] <hatter243> alanbshepard70, Here's the page for it: http://linux.about.com/library/cmd/blcmdl1_aumix.htm
[19:35] <Joker_-_> v0rt3_x86: you tryed slackware? or gentoo of course but you'd have to compile for about a week to install, and maybe compile 2 days a week to update ;)
[19:35] <Haji_2> hello, how do i get gsynaptics to work? settings in xorg.conf are ignored i think
[19:35] <v0rt3_x86> I need a good, easy to use GUI though.  Im screwed!
[19:36] <mst__> Haji_2, I believe you just need the "SHMConfig" "on" addition to the Device "Pointer" section of xorg.conf
[19:36] <hatter243> phorensic, that has not been my experience
[19:36] <v0rt3_x86> phorensic - They were previously on Win2k
[19:36] <Joker_-_> v0rt3_x86: look for dsl or dsl-N or something like that...  I don't use it anymore... I just remember having to do that
[19:38] <Joker_-_> can anyone HELP with that: http://rafb.net/p/TGH6Pg43.html
[19:38] <v0rt3_x86> phorensic - won't run ubuntu.
[19:38] <v0rt3_x86> just goes to console.
[19:38] <TakeABow> Could anyone help me with settuing up an FTP in ubuntu please? Preferably one with a GUI
[19:39] <v0rt3_x86> Oh, and I need to be able to use some kind of USB wireless network adapter.
[19:39] <Haji_2> mst__, i just like to set up my touchpad correctly ^^ everything i put into the xorg.conf concerning synaptics is just being ignored
[19:39] <phorensic> v0rt3_x86: why not?
[19:39] <Joker_-_> v0rt3_x86: check for DSL and DSL-N (Known as Damn Small Linux and Damn Small Linux Not)
[19:39] <phorensic> TakeABow: You need the client or help setting up the server as well?
[19:40] <TakeABow> phorensic, just the server, i'm just an utter noob with linux and need to get one setup on this server
[19:40] <Baughn> Haji_2: You're apparently supposed to use HAL, not xorg.conf. Well...
[19:40] <Xyc0> whoa, it's like a power rush... single user mode rocks
[19:40] <v0rt3_x86> Joker_-_: Think DSL-N will be able to handle the USB wireless adapter?
[19:40] <thomas___> Can anyone help me my bookmarks keep automaticly scrolling up when i'm trying to scroll down >.<
[19:40] <phorensic> TakeABow: is this for a local network?
[19:40] <Xyc0> real men login as root
[19:40] <TakeABow> no, internet
[19:40] <Joker_-_> v0rt3_x86: read on it, you'll see. I'm giving ideas, you're doing the work :P
[19:41] <v0rt3_x86> :P
[19:41] <rom1v> hi
[19:41] <rom1v> will firefox 3.1 in ubuntu 9.04?
[19:41] <Slart> shubbar: sorry.. I've been preparing to go out.. don't have time to help you.. but ask the channel again.. I'm sure someone has some idea
[19:41] <Joker_-_> rom1v: why not?
[19:41] <phorensic> TakeABow: ftp is not secure you should be using ssh for things like that
[19:41] <rom1v> if it's the 3.0 in 9.04, will it be upgraded to 3.1 before 9.10?
[19:41] <Baughn> Haji_2: http://brage.info/~svein/synaptics.fdi <-- Put this in /etc/hal/fdi/policy/, then customize it as you like. Should be fairly simple.
[19:41] <mst__> Haji_2, but does gsynaptics start? or will the program not even load?
[19:41] <rom1v> why not : I don't know when ff3.1 will be out
[19:41] <smo_PenguinStyle> hey all.  I was wondering how to vpn from my linux laptop into the network at work (windows)..
[19:41] <Haji_2> Baughn, kk thanks i'll try that
[19:41] <TakeABow> phorensic, i just want it to download files from the ubuntu box
[19:42] <Joker_-_> rom1v: then you got your answer: probably not!
[19:42] <Baughn> Haji_2: Oh, and you'll need to restart hal. /etc/init.d/hal restart before restarting X.
[19:42] <Joker_-_> rom1v: but it will be upgraded later when it's out and tested
[19:42] <Baughn> Haji_2: (Technically you don't need to also restart X, but you probably can't unplug your touchpad)
[19:42] <rom1v> Joker_-_, and it will upgraded BEFORE 9.10?
[19:42] <thomas___> please someone how do I stop firefox crashing and my bookmarks scrolling up when I'm trying to scroll down
[19:42] <rom1v> I mean, if ff3.1 is out on july
[19:42] <Haji_2> Baughn, kki
[19:42] <rom1v> or may
[19:42] <Haji_2> Baughn, kk*
[19:42] <rom1v> ubuntu won't stay with 3.0?
[19:42] <rom1v> like openoffice 2.4 in ubuntu 8.10?
[19:42] <paresh_> I am trying to install libxml2 from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/+source/libxml2/2.6.32.dfsg-4ubuntu1. I have downloaded and extracted the contents. How do I install it/
[19:42] <Joker_-_> rom1v: if it's out and tested, I guess! Why exactly?
[19:42] <phorensic> TakeABow: right but even still you shouldn't use ftp for that specially if the ubuntu box is your own
[19:43] <smo_PenguinStyle> hey all.  I was wondering how to vpn from my linux laptop into the network at work (windows).... any thoughts?
[19:43] <DIFH-iceroot> paresh_: use apt-get
[19:43] <Thermal> rom1v: Discuss it in Ubuntu+1 =P
[19:43] <DIFH-iceroot> paresh_: always you the paketmanager instead of downloading the stuff
[19:43] <TakeABow> phorensic: how come? if i set up ssh or whatever you said, would i still be able to download files from a particular folder (it will only be 1 folder)
[19:43] <MTb_s> Hello !
[19:43] <MTb_s> I've crypt my home with LUKS, and I'm trying to auto login with my USB key have you some tutorial please?
[19:43] <MTb_s> THANKS
[19:44] <DIFH-iceroot> paresh_: sudo apt-get install libxml2
[19:44] <paresh_> DIFH-iceroot: alright, let me try
[19:45] <Baughn> Haji_2: Oh, and tell me if it works. ;)
[19:45] <thomas___> my online radio keeps cutting out on firefox as well is there anyway to fix this please
[19:45] <phorensic> TakeABow: yes, although Im not the one to help you with ssh, i haven't used it in forever....but basically ftp sends yor passwords in plaintext and therefore your pc is easily comprimised
[19:45] <Haji_2> brb
[19:45] <Baughn> smo_PenguinStyle: Networkmanager already has a VPN menu. Did you try that?
[19:45] <Bombenleger> hi
[19:45] <geoffrian> anyone here have a VIA chip?
[19:45] <bantu_> Hey peeps
[19:45] <thomas___> it doesn't happen when I use firefox on windows
[19:46] <AmaroKeN> how do i get my .bin / .cue files to run properly on linux? ( WinXP installer )
[19:46] <geoffrian> my 1.2 gigs only work at 599megahertz
[19:46] <Bombenleger> are here any germans
[19:46] <Bombenleger> ??????
[19:46] <Baughn> smo_PenguinStyle: You'll need to install the network-manager-pptp package before it'll work, though. You'd think it'd warn you.
[19:46] <Baughn> AmaroKeN: Install bin2cue to repack it into an iso
[19:46] <Baughn> AmaroKeN: Er. bin2iso.
[19:47] <AmaroKeN> how? ;p, new to linux
[19:48] <Baughn> AmaroKeN: Well, apparently ubuntu doesn't bundle it. Hmm.
[19:48] <Haji_2> Baughn, well i did everything you said but no difference ;)
[19:48] <Baughn> Haji_2: You /may/ need to also undo the xorg.conf changes you did before
[19:48] <Baughn> Haji_2: Er, which version of ubuntu are you on anyway?
[19:48] <Arrick> hey all, how do i create a symlink to phpmyadmin through termial, to my existing web directory?
[19:48] <AmaroKeN> so then what?
[19:48] <Baughn> Arrick: ln -s
[19:48] <Baughn> Arrick: (See the manpage for ln)
[19:49] <Haji_2> Baughn, not ubuntu, debian but should be the same (i think)
[19:49] <Baughn> Haji_2: No. It isn't the same at all.
[19:49] <Stormx2> Baughn, bchunk seems to convert between bin/cue
[19:49] <Baughn> Haji_2: Go ask in #debian.
[19:49] <Baughn> Stormx2: Oh yeah, that'Ll work too
[19:49] <Baughn> AmaroKeN: Install bchunk. ;)
[19:49] <paresh_> DIFH-iceroot: tks, now I want to install WSF/C (and then WSF/Ruby) to my Intrepid machine. Is there a way to do it without downloading the tar file?
[19:49] <coz_> so are they new style notifications avaiable to intrepid?
[19:49] <AmaroKeN> got it
[19:49] <Haji_2> Baughn, damn ^^
[19:49] <me`n`u> sind hier deutsche?
[19:50] <AmaroKeN> and my files at the desktop is named: klockren-xpsp2.bin, how do i use em?
[19:50] <v0rt3_x86> Another question about Ubuntu and DSL-N - which packages do I need to download when I find an application I like? Like the extension.
[19:50] <DIFH-iceroot> paresh_: look with "apt-cache search PROGRAMNAME" if the paket exists and then install with sudo apt-get install PAKETNAME
[19:50] <mst__> Anyone know how to change the default boot loader to lilo instead of grub post install?
[19:51] <bantu_> Whats a torrent and how do I use it?
[19:51] <Skaag> new install of ubuntu desktop... ftp and ping work fine, but http does not
[19:51] <Baughn> bantu_: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent_(protocol)
[19:51] <Skaag> can not load any site, and can not even telnet to port 80 of any site
[19:51] <AmaroKeN> Baughn, how do i use Bchunk?
[19:51] <bantu_> I want to compile mplayer in Ubuntu 8.04
[19:51] <Baughn> AmaroKeN: Just run it from the command line
[19:51] <AmaroKeN> Terminal?
[19:51] <Baughn> Yep
[19:51] <me`n`u> how much space takes ubuntu on my pc?
[19:52] <Baughn> bantu_: Which has nothing to do with any torrents
[19:52] <AmaroKeN> well, i'm not good @ Terminal, i do NOT know a SINGLE COMMAND! ;O
[19:52] <phorensic> mst__: http://www.bauer-power.net/2007/08/changing-from-grub-to-lilo-ubuntu-704.html
[19:52] <paresh_> DIFH-iceroot: checked, it doesnt exist over there
[19:52] <Baughn> me`n`u: Eh. Fifteen gigabytes is decent, but you can squeeze it into a lot less at need.
[19:52] <bantu_> I keep getting this error, missing header files
[19:52] <Baughn> me`n`u: More is of course better. :P
[19:52] <tag> Since upgrading to intrepid, my GDM splash screen shows up incredibly small (about 1/16th of my screen size) in the top left corner of my physical screen area [ thinkpad T60, ati mobility X1400 ].  When I log in, everything looks just fine...any ideas on how to fix that?
[19:52] <Haji_2> Baughn, well i think i found something - thanks anyway
[19:53] <tag> It's only annoying...but it's pretty massively annoying.
[19:53] <bantu_> Baughn I know, Ok. I'm not exactly a linux newbie...but..
[19:53] <gam3r111> can someone help with xsane
[19:53] <me`n`u> Baughn: thanks... how big is the install.exe?
[19:53] <AmaroKeN> Are you ignoring me?
[19:53] <bantu_> Coming from Kenya, internet connections are a luxury for home computer users
[19:53] <chazco> Hi... how can I control my Ubuntu netbook from my Ubuntu desktop, but making full use of the desktops resolution (1440x900 vs the 1024x600 of the netbook)?
[19:54] <mst__> phorensic, The instructions on that page are good, and I read them before I installed Lilo to the MBR of my computer... however, when something like a kernel update happens Ubuntu will still call update-grub after aptitude has done all its stuff... I want ubuntu to know about lilo during this process
[19:54] <ubuntuuser234234> hey guys, got a problem. Whenever I start up ubuntu I have to right click on the volume control open it up and move speaker volume from all the way down to an appropriate volume. As the volume control normally controls the master volume this is even more of a pain. Anyone know why this is happening/ how to fix it?
[19:54] <bantu_> So when I finally got my gsm phone to act like a modem using wvdial...
[19:54] <bantu_> I want to get as much info as possible on all the things I didn't know before
[19:54] <gam3r111> how can i login remotely from my windows computer?/
[19:55] <ubuntuuser234234> gam3r111, vnc
[19:55] <phorensic> mst__: Oh I see, yah you mentioned something about that huh... im not sure
[19:55] <gam3r111> thx
[19:55] <AmaroKeN> baughn, how do i use Bchunk via Terminal??, please answer me :<
[19:55] <mst__> phorensic, thanks though :-)
[19:56] <phorensic> mst__: I could see how that would be a pita
[19:56] <Baughn> AmaroKeN: Uh. Run it, look at the helpful help text?
[19:56] <AmaroKeN> Where?
[19:56] <Baughn> In a terminal.
[19:56] <Baughn> And no, I'm just not around playing l4d.
[19:56] <AmaroKeN> it doesn't say a thing in terminal ;o
[19:57] <mst__> phorensic, Yeah, it's more like I want everything to be Ubuntu-ified and just work, if I wanted to do a lot of work to *use* my computer rather than do a lot of work using my computer I'd use slackware or LFS or something
[19:57] <bantu_> Baughn anyway I could reach you on email?
[19:57] <bantu_> Got a bunch of questions
[19:58] <TakeABow> Urggh, can someone help me with setting up vsftpd please?
[19:58] <ubuntuuser234234> anyone know how to keep my speaker volume from resetting to 0 on restart?
[19:59] <chrism> Im using lamp on a wireless network iv portforwarded my router i think my isp is blocking port 80 i tried to change the port for apache, but then lamp doesnt work at all..when apache is on 80 though i can at least see it locally but not remote.
[20:00] <phorensic> mst__: haha.. true, what was wrong with grub that you wanted to use lilo?
[20:00] <bantu_> chris whats port 89 for?
[20:00] <chrism> port 80.
[20:00] <chrism> apache webserver.
[20:01] <nroot7> When my system recovers from sleep, I am not able to move mouse pointer
[20:01] <bantu_> Anyone proficient in Python?
[20:01] <chrism> its just weird, the router blocks everything even when i portforward the darn thing.
[20:01] <chrism> bantu_,  yeah u got a job for me?
[20:02] <AmaroKeN> if i want to use files on bchunk which are on the desktop, what shall i do, "sudo bchunk 'desktop' klockren-xpsp2.bin klockren-xpsp2.cue klockren-xpsp2" or wtf???
[20:02] <bantu_> chris you'd really like that wouldn't you? Hehehe
[20:02] <chrism> sure i love the $$
[20:02] <mst__> phorensic, This is strange... so hold on to your hat. My laptop's cdrom drive works fine for installing ubuntu, but then disappears after the installation is complete and I boot from the HDD using Grub.  And is this IP static?
[20:03] <Baughn> AmaroKeN: No need for sudo
[20:03] <Baughn> AmaroKeN: But seriously, if you run just bchunk, you should get quite a lot of output
[20:03] <chrism> phorensic, im pretty sure, my router is on <IP_ADDRESS> and i forwarded it apache and mysql to <IP_ADDRESS>
[20:04] <AmaroKeN> i did, it did NOT make any sense, since i've never found out how to figure out the directories in terminal
[20:04] <Baughn> phorensic: Check with netcat
[20:04] <chrism> so like where it says ip adress i put <IP_ADDRESS>
[20:04] <slippyr4> hi all. what package do i want to install to be able to read .tex files ? ideally a gtk app.
[20:04] <Baughn> AmaroKeN: Ah. Well, in that case this is a good time to do so.
[20:04] <bantu_> Well chris any way I could get in touch with you?
[20:04] <AmaroKeN> well?, how?
[20:04] <Baughn> slippyr4: Those aren'T meant to be readable
[20:04] <chrism> phorensic,  should i put my real adress in there?
[20:04] <bantu_> On the side...
[20:04] <Baughn> slippyr4: ..well, not to normal people
[20:04] <Baughn> slippyr4: You use latex to turn them into pdf files, mostly
[20:04] <phorensic> mst__: whoah hella weird... no way possibly fix the cd-rom errors instead installing a different bootloader? Or is this one of grubs issues with loading certain hardware?
[20:05] <slippyr4> Baughn: oh. ok. thanks
[20:05] <chrism> bantu_, u can pm me if youd like.
[20:05] <Baughn> slippyr4: Er, unless it actually is a latex file, and not a tex files; both use .tex for an extension
[20:05] <mst__> phorensic, I can boot with grub w/ CDROM if i pass "acpi = off" to the kernel... but that sucks for a laptop
[20:05] <Baughn> slippyr4: In which case any text editor will open it, but.. it'll still look better after being compiled to a pdf; the .tex for is for editing, not reading.
[20:05] <phorensic> chrism: your real address?? i believe you have it forwarded correctly
[20:06] <Baughn> AmaroKeN: http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Training/Tutorials/Reference/unixprimer.html
[20:06] <chrism> phorensic,  maybe thats the problem, but on portforward.com it says to put in <IP_ADDRESS>...
[20:06] <phorensic> mst__: wow funky
[20:06] <chrism> like whatever your local connection ip is..
[20:06] <what_if> I cannot run the Realplayer installer. Bash says "./RealPlayer11GOLD.bin: No such file or directory"
[20:06] <phorensic> mst__: you think its more of a grub issue or kernel funkyness?
[20:07] <phorensic> chrism: OH I see no you use your ip address of the pc
[20:07] <ldiamond> I am unable to upgrade to 2.6.27-11... all I can get is 2.6.27-9. Why?
[20:07] <mst__> phorensic, really funky... I think it's grub since Lilo boots the same kernel w/o problems, either that or some problem with the way grub and the kernel communicate, something not there with lilo's simplicity maybe
[20:07] <phorensic> chrism: I think they are using that address as an example as if that was your actual ip.. its not that then huh?
[20:07] <bullgard4> '~$ ip address; 100: wifi0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 199  link/ieee802.11 00:05:4e:47:3e:86 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff; 101: ath0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue  link/ether 00:05:4e:47:3e:86 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff'. How do the two network interfaces differ essentially?
[20:07] <Pici> ldiamond: -11 is only in the -proposed repositories
[20:08] <magnusmagnus> Someone helped me with a wubi related problem, where ubuntu wouldn't show up on vista's bootloader and provided me with a link.. I'm now in the LiveCD and forgot what to do, and what the link is T_T
[20:08] <magnusmagnus> Can someone help me?
[20:08] <Baughn> bullgard4: Well, the wifi0 one is a virtual interface used for.. stuff. It doesn't really make sense, basically you should just ignore it.
[20:08] <Baughn> bullgard4: The ath0 one is the real one.
[20:08] <phorensic> mst__: In there rare instances that grub has issues good ol trusty lilo steps in
[20:08] <ldiamond> Pici, ty
[20:08] <Baughn> bullgard4: Unless you actually have two wifi cards, I suppose.
[20:08] <chrism> phorensic, could be.. im not exactly sure..well i might as well try my real adress and see what happens.
[20:09] <phorensic> chrism: for sure you need to put in your real address
[20:09] <mst__> phorensic, I just find it funny, I haven't used lilo since the 2.4.x series of kernels, I think it was redhat 7.2 or something (the last time i used it)
[20:09] <phorensic> chrism: otherwise you are forwarding to an address that doesn't exist
[20:09] <bantu_> Aaaah FinallY!! I remember a question!! Anyone that can show me how to boot a Iso image of puppy
[20:10] <Baughn> bantu_: Burn it, then reboot your computer?
[20:10] <bantu_> from a flash disk
[20:10] <Baughn> Oh..
[20:10] <chrism> good call so like whatevewr cpe-65-189-217-171.neo.res.rr.com resolves to ill put that in
[20:10] <AmaroKeN> Baughn, can't you just help me out with remote desktop or something? :P
[20:10] <chrism> *crossin my fingers*
[20:10] <Baughn> bantu_: You may have some luck with unetbootin
[20:10] <bullgard4> Baughn: I have got one Wifi network card. As the command testifies, the two interfaces differ in their properties. Where do you know from that wifi0 is a virtual interface? What does 'virtuel' mean here?
[20:10] <Baughn> AmaroKeN: That wouldn't help you learn anything.
[20:10] <phorensic> mst__: I was doing a little read up. Redhat switched to grub after decades of using lilo, and put lilo in the possibly depreciate this software category. They really were pushing grub so the rest of the 'herd' followed suit.
[20:11] <AmaroKeN> yes, cause then i would see what you do, and then i would know, since i see it ;o
[20:11] <Baughn> bullgard4: The atheros driver exports two network interfaces, but it actually only has one physical interface
[20:11] <Baughn> bullgard4: That's why one of them is "virtual".
[20:11] <bantu_> unetbootin?
[20:11] <Baughn> bullgard4: For all practical purposes, you should ignore wifi-.
[20:11] <phorensic> chrism: it will work.. the problem is forwarding to non-existent address
[20:11] <mst__> phorensic, well, I remember when Grub was first becomming popular (i.e. pervasive) that lilo still couldn't boot if your system's root was located past sector 1024 on the hdd
[20:11] <mst__> phorensic, so that may have had something to do with it, the popularity of dual booting and all
[20:12] <Baughn> bullgard4: (There are technical reasons, but they don't matter when you just use it)
[20:12] <magnusmagnus> My ubuntu dualboot installation (wubi) won't show up in windows vista's bootloader.. Can someone help me fix this?
[20:12] <bullgard4> Baughn: Thank you very much for your answers.
[20:12] <phorensic> mst__: Yah thats true.. a nice little bit of infohttp://lwn.net/Articles/89772/  Im still fairly new to ubuntu
[20:12] <AmaroKeN> besides, i don't think i will use ubuntu too much longer after this, i am a traitor, yes, but i prefer xp ;S
[20:12] <molgamus> Hi, i'm having trouble with my wireless chip, it doesn't find any networks. (Dell Latitute D610)
[20:13] <Baughn> magnusmagnus: Did you reinstall windows?
[20:13] <tom_eats_lives> i can't seem to complie any c files always get errors. do i need to install something ?
[20:13] <phorensic> AmaroKeN: Hey man different strokes for different folks
[20:13] <magnusmagnus> Well, I accidentally deleted the bootloader, then used vista's DVD to repair the damages
[20:13] <outoftime> hey all - anyone got a recommendation for a small, cheap machine that could comfortably run Ubuntu?
[20:13] <Baughn> tom_eats_lives: Yes. apt-get install build-essential.
[20:13] <phorensic> tom_eats_lives: sudo apt-get install build-essential ?
[20:13] <tsairox> Anyone know of a good command line tutorial for outputting .mp4 file from dvd.iso file?  I have googled with now luck so far
[20:14] <Baughn> magnusmagnus: And since vista has no knowledge of linux, it won't link to linux's bootloader.
[20:14] <maco> outoftime: this comes with ubuntu on it: http://www.zareason.com/shop/product.php?productid=16176&cat=0&page=1
[20:14] <bullgard4> outoftime: 'Small' and 'comfortably' contradict each other.
[20:14] <dayo> !alsa
[20:14] <tsairox> Ooops no luck so far.
[20:14] <maco> outoftime: ive had good experience with that company
[20:14] <maco> outoftime: or did you mean laptop?
[20:14] <tom_eats_lives> Baughn,  already had installed , still get errors.
[20:14] <Baughn> magnusmagnus: It's possible to repair, but with wubi it'll be rather hard.. Do you have any important data on your wubi setup?
[20:14] <outoftime> maco: thanks! nope, looking for a mini desktop
[20:14] <outoftime> bullgard4: i mean, we're basically talking about running a single browser window here, and that's it. could disable many services, etc.
[20:14] <AmaroKeN> well, i cba to learn since i'm gonna change OS, so could anyone help me with remote desktop?
[20:14] <magnusmagnus> Baughn kinda
[20:15] <tom_eats_lives> Baughn,  to complie its gcc file.c ?
[20:15] <dayo> !pulseaudio > dayo
[20:15] <tom_eats_lives> !c
[20:15] <Baughn> tom_eats_lives: I would suggest asking about that in #gcc.
[20:15] <Rave1_> bantu_ go to #puppylinux  I will help you with your question
[20:15] <Baughn> tom_eats_lives: Or ##c, I guess
[20:15] <magnusmagnus> But if I pop in the CD, and try to uninstall, it asks if I want to do a backup first.. Can I just do the backup, and reinstall it using the backup?
[20:15] <phorensic> Baughn: I always thought it was funny that windows even though it has been around way less than linux/unix doesn't acknowledge linux.. Of  course there are programs to do this but are they really that scared that they can't have the system come with these tools?
[20:15] <bullgard4> outoftime: The screen is one thing. The keyboard is another.
[20:15] <mst__> phorensic, cool article... yeah, i'm newish to ubuntu, but i migrated over from three to four years of debian use, followed by a brief stint with LFS, my philosophy changed one day to: "Hey, someone already put all the work of figuring out what packages make a system usable... lets just use their solution"
[20:16] <elops> Can you get iptables to log to its own log file?
[20:16] <molgamus> Could someone help me? My wireless card doesn't detect any networks (or my computer doesn't detect the card). What should i do?
[20:16] <Baughn> magnusmagnus: Well, what card do you have?
[20:16] <outoftime> bullgard4: screen would be a TV. keyboard would be el cheapo laser wireless of the sort that i have sitting in a pile next to me : )
[20:16] <tom_eats_lives> Baughn,  ok , always feel embarrassed asking in #c #gcc for something so easy =(
[20:16] <Baughn> magnusmagnus: And does networkmanager show a "wireless networks" header at all?
[20:16] <phorensic> mst__: You preferred not to re-invent the wheel so to speak.. not a bad choice... although Im sure you gained a lot of linux knowledge which comes in handy im sure by running those types of OS's
[20:17] <magnusmagnus> I think you're talking to the wrong guy, bauhgn
[20:17] <dayo> tom_eats_lives: that's what it's for. asking questions
[20:17] <Baughn> tom_eats_lives: Although you'd think you'd remember it after one or two askings
[20:17] <dayo> tom_eats_lives: everyone in there started small
[20:17] <bullgard4> outoftime: I see. So your requirements are special. --  I cannot help you.
[20:17] <pike_> molgamus: can you pastebin the following commands?  sudo lshw; sudo ifconfig -a; iwconfig
[20:17] <molgamus> ok
[20:17] <outoftime> bullgard4: thanks for following up on my question!
[20:18] <phorensic> hey pikey
[20:18] <Baughn> tom_eats_lives: You shouldn't feel embarrassed, though. Chances are it'll be answered by someone who is otherwise mostly there to ask questions, who will therefore feel better about it.
[20:18] <mst__> phorensic, yeah... LFS was sort of like the capstone for an operating systems course... I learned a lot from running it, and suggest that people who really want to learn about linux install it with virtualbox or vmware or something, but Ubuntu rocks -- even people who have never used linux before have no trouble sitting down at my box to do work

[20:19] <xDCDx> hello, I have a problem with ubuntu 6.06.1 2.6.15-52-amd64-server; I am exporting a folder NFS, mounting it with NFS works fine, but working it with NFS4 gives a "ls: reading directory /home: Input/output error" error when I try ls, but writing and reading actual files on the nfs work fine. I've been googling to no avail. Any clues?
[20:19] <zeno___> HELP! pulse is taking up 100 percent CPU and its superhot!
[20:19] <Baughn> zeno___: Kill pulse?
[20:19] <phorensic> mst__: One day I want to LFS but the community doesn't have that much support and I have a hard time interacting with docs
[20:19] <Baughn> ..that wasn't pulse. Oh well.
[20:20] <molgamus> http://paste.ubuntu.com/110442/
[20:20] <s0101> does anybody know how to configure Geforce 6100 on ubuntu 8.10
[20:20] <s0101> ?
[20:20] <Baughn> xDCDx: It's not really an answer, but I eventually got sufficiently fed up to switch to sshfs. NEver looked back. :P
[20:20] <phorensic> mst__: What host OS did you use to make yours?
[20:20] <xDCDx> I mean, mounting it with NFSv3 works fine, but mounting it with NFSv4 gives the input/output error when doing ls
[20:20] <homecable> s0101 that card sucks
[20:20] <homecable> get a new one
[20:20] <phorensic> s0101: restricted driver manager?
[20:21] <homecable> i tryed it and it was low fps
[20:21] <homecable> :P
[20:21] <s0101> i did a fresh install and after i avtivated the driver in the hardware conf it installed the latest version and after restart my screen goes black
[20:21] <mst__> phorensic, the LFS book is pretty good, just follow the instructions exactly (an extra slash here or there can f*ck you in the end) -- I used a minimal install of debian testing
[20:21] <xDCDx> Baughn: that may be a solution, but I am afraid performance might by a problem with sshfs
[20:21] <molgamus> http://paste.ubuntu.com/110443/
[20:21] <Baughn> xDCDx: In my experience, it manages "wire" speeds at least up to 210Mbit/s, eg. the full 802.11n capacity
[20:21] <s0101> i chosed the recomended version 177
[20:21] <Baughn> xDCDx: It does increase cpu usage, but..
[20:21] <mst__> phorensic, but if you just want to play with LFS you can download their live CD and use it with virtualbox
[20:21] <tsairox> kao: what should i do?
[20:22] <s0101> now i turned it back to low graph
[20:22] <phorensic> mst__: I see .. I need a 3rd pc that I can crash and test it.. and maybe a friend that wants to go through the experience with me.. you think it was worth the time?
[20:22] <Baughn> xDCDx: Well, that's the encryption. NFSv4 is also encrypted (if you're doing it right), so there's no real difference.
[20:22] <phorensic> mst__: Thats true
[20:22] <Baughn> xDCDx: Or you could wait for my thesis product. Should be just a year or so. :P
[20:22] <xDCDx> lol
[20:22] <molgamus> http://paste.ubuntu.com/110444/
[20:22] <xDCDx> Baughn: what happens when a sshfs goes down, and then goes up back after a while? Is data lost? I need a behaviour like the 'hard' option in NFS
[20:23] <Baughn> xDCDx: With -o reconnect, you get that
[20:23] <whitedox> Does avidemux have its own irc support channel?
[20:23] <phorensic> mst__: I think I have an older lfs disk around but I remember they docs were saying they were in between releases and the current one was funky so better to wait, I waited and then forgot about it
[20:23] <xDCDx> so processes are kept waiting until NFS is up again with sshfs?
[20:23] <homecable> s0101 http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=SFPC85GT256U2P&cpc=SCH
[20:23] <Baughn> Yes
[20:23] <Baughn> Unless you ctrl-c them
[20:23] <mst__> phorensic, you'll get a lot of "low level" knowledge about how linux is put together, what comprises a distribution, and in general become kind of a pro at configuring the GNU/Linux part of linux, you'll know where things like "ls" come from that we usually take for granted
[20:23] <homecable> thats the card i got it alot better
[20:23] <xDCDx> ummm, i could consider that then
[20:23] <Baughn> xDCDx: Of course, with the caveat that true consistency is impossible when the host (server) doesn't know about sshfs
[20:24] <Baughn> xDCDx: But that's the same as with nfs
[20:24] <mst__> phorensic, it wont help you much in just knowing how a distro like ubuntu works, since there's a ton of software between an LFS system and an ubuntu system
[20:24] <derspankster> anyone know of where I can get an ubuntu dome case badge?
[20:24] <homecable> http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=NVIDIA-8300GS-CO&cpc=SCH
[20:24] <homecable> i ment
[20:24] <phorensic> mst__: I wish someone would put together a comprehensive dvd to describe all this stuff and also with bash.. usually once I can conceptualize things (and since im a visual learner the dvd would help greatly) I can kick ass and chew bubblegum
[20:24] <homecable> http://www.geeks.com/products_sc.asp?cat=946

[20:25] <Baughn> xDCDx: (Mine is, of course, handling that better. Distributed FSs usually do. ;)
[20:25] <Medalgod> Hi all! On a Ubuntu live! disk i get no graphical environment. It seems to be outputting something that cannot be displayed by my monitor. Can anybody help me get an x environment? If it helps i have an ATi HD 3850 gfx card... help would be appreciated :)
[20:25] <s0101> are you trying to tell me that my graph card is screwed
[20:25] <xDCDx> I was switching from NFSv3 to NFSv4 due to strange slow downs and hang ups with mounts: my setup is like 10 nodes with data disks, all of them are servers and all of them mount all the other data disks
[20:25] <mst__> phorensic, but you'r all out of gum?
[20:25] <Baughn> xDCDx: ...cool. Can I have a copy?
[20:25] <s0101> i have a integrated motherboard+graphcard
[20:25] <phorensic> mst__: But knowing the structure of the filesystem and learning to use the shell more would be a tremendous help
[20:25] <bantu_> Baughn how long have you been using Linux
[20:25] <Baughn> xDCDx: Er. I mean, sshfs has never shown any such issues for me.
[20:26] <phorensic> mst__: No Im using the new last for ever gum, I've had one piece for the last  5 years
[20:26] <s0101> why can i use 8.04 hardy heron with no problems at al?
[20:26] <Baughn> bantu_: Eh? Oh.. hmm, fourteen years now
[20:26] <xDCDx> it just pisses me off that i spent the whole afternoon migrating to NFSv4 for nothing :P
[20:26] <xDCDx> now I have to spend another afternoon learning and migrating to sshfs...
[20:26] <phorensic> s0101: There could possibly always be a problem somewhere
[20:26] <mst__> phorensic, watch out or a giant horned animal will attack you vis. the stride commercials -- nasty stuff
[20:26] <Baughn> xDCDx: Nah, more like half an hour
[20:26] <ubuntuuser234234> anyone know how to keep my speaker volume from resetting to 0 on restart?
[20:26] <phorensic> mst__: haaha I'll be on guard thanks for the warning!
[20:27] <s0101> iam getting headache
[20:27] <Baughn> xDCDx: If performance is critical, NFSv3 /is/ faster (unless you get mysterious slowdowns)
[20:27] <phorensic> s0101: did you try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[20:27] <MikyMouse> Is there anyway to disable compiz but keep the sadows..? with compiz I really get sometimes weir behaivours with the text in the windows (it get screwd up while scrolling)
[20:27] <Baughn> xDCDx: Though you might be able to set null encryption on ssh
[20:27] <s0101> yes thats how i could change back to low graph
[20:27] <ugliefrog> how do i fix my mouse going to sleep...my mouse goes to sleep after a few minutes ..have to clik it a bunch to get it going
[20:27] <Baughn> MikyMouse: Not really, no.
[20:27] <bantu_> Baughn I feel like a bug now!
[20:28] <phorensic> s0101: And you upgraded before you installed the new nvidia restricted drivers?
[20:28] <xDCDx> Baughn: thanks for the info, but the misterious slow downs were really annoying :-)
[20:28] <s0101> i did a full system upgrade
[20:28] <mst__> phorensic, best of luck... i got to run, but I'd say its worth installing LFS to in VirtualBox, espicially since there is a lot of time you wait while things compile -- you'll be able to get stuff done while you do LFS on the side
[20:28] <s0101> from a fresh install
[20:28] <MikyMouse> Baughn, so it is only possible to have shadows with compiz???
[20:28] <Baughn> MikyMouse: Shadows in the "darken the next window under" sense requires compositing, which is what compiz does.. it's not really compiz' fault, as the problems are due to DRI1 being over-extended
[20:28] <phorensic> mst__: Cool thanks bro ttyl
[20:28] <mst__> phorensic, adios
[20:29] <Baughn> MikyMouse: Lots of other window managers bake shadows into the window decorations, but those just look the same regardless of other windows
[20:29] <bantu_> I have tried reading the chroot man page, but I can't get what its used for...
[20:29] <Baughn> MikyMouse: One option is to wait. DRI2 will eventually fix this.
[20:29] <Baughn> MikyMouse: Another is to switch to an nvidia gpu, as they've hacked around the issues. Mostly.
[20:29] <s0101> i have options to activate driver 173. 96 or 177 (recomended)
[20:29] <MikyMouse> Baughn, well actually I have a NVIDIA GPU
[20:29] <phorensic> s0101: I would suggest removing the nvidia drivers and try reinstalling them.. if it still doesn't work after that, you should probably just use the open source "nv" driver
[20:30] <Baughn> s0101: On a 6000-series card?
[20:30] <clooluss> hi all. I'm having trouble with network manager. Are there are text files I can tweak to try to fix it?
[20:30] <phorensic> s0101: use the recommended driver
[20:30] <s0101> 6100
[20:30] <MikyMouse> Baughn, but I have to put the Visual Effects to NONE otherwise I get sometimes annoying efects on the text when scrolling
[20:30] <Baughn> s0101: Hang on, let me check
[20:30] <phorensic> s0101: but i do think that it could be time for a new card?
[20:30] <Baughn> MikyMouse: Unavoidable. Sorry.
[20:30] <MikyMouse> Baughn, ...mybe time to switch to KDE since I don't have problems there
[20:30] <Baughn> s0101: Yes, the newest driver should work for a 6100.
[20:30] <s0101> i found a thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1039450 but i am a bit ubuntu green
[20:31] <per> Hello "Ubuntu" folks! Why why doesnt "dpkg-reconfigure -phigh locales" give any questions??? (I cant recall giving any options while installing ubuntu, crap
[20:31] <per> Any ideer???
[20:31] <molgamus> could someone please walk me through how to set up my wireless card on my dell latitude?
[20:31] <phorensic> MikyMouse: nothing wrong with using kde
[20:31] <Baughn> MikyMouse: Er, yeah, because KDE ships with those effects off
[20:31] <s0101> but i tried with the newest and the screen went black after restart and i had to set it back to low graph from terminal
[20:31] <MikyMouse> Baughn, actually I tried KDE with shadows and no problem
[20:31] <MikyMouse> Baughn, but I like more GNOME
[20:31] <Baughn> s0101: But seriously, it's time to upgrade
[20:32] <Medalgod> per, do it without the -phigh options
[20:32] <Baughn> MikyMouse: Well, are they the sort of shadows where the shadow actually lets the windows below shine through?
[20:32] <clooluss> network manager keeps trying to connect to a AP that no longer exists! How can I purge this old reference?
[20:32] <per> Medalgod: Same thing
[20:32] <phorensic> s0101: I know, maybe something went wrong.. its happened to me before.. just give it a try make sure you update and upgrade again before you do it
[20:32] <Medalgod> no idea then :p
[20:32] <Baughn> clooluss: Right-click on it, pick edit
[20:32] <s0101> this is just my favorite crap computer i normaly use a laptop but i just want it to work nice and smooth like 8.04
[20:33] <Rezzie> Is it possible to log how much traffic is transferred through an SSH session?
[20:33] <s0101> you mean do a system update before?
[20:33] <Medalgod> anyone help on getting an x environment on the live disk?
[20:33] <clooluss> Baughn: There is no Edit option if I right click: "Enable networking" and "enable wireless", Connection info and about
[20:33] <per> I will install good old Debian (Ubuntu is too slick
[20:33] <phorensic> s0101: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[20:33] <Baughn> Rezzie: A particular connection, as in from the command line?
[20:33] <Medalgod> per: good man :p
[20:33] <Baughn> clooluss: Odd. 8.04?
[20:33] <MikyMouse> Baughn, and it is specialy annoying with PUTTY since half of the window doesn't redraw
[20:33] <s0101> those to options before i activate and install the driver
[20:33] <Baughn> clooluss: There is one in 8.10, at least
[20:34] <Baughn> clooluss: If you don't mind re-entering all the networks you want to use, you can just delete the config directory. That's.. let's see...
[20:34] <Rezzie> Baughn: Yes, I'm logging into an SSH session via the terminal and using it to tunnel web traffic, though I'd like to know how much data has been sent/received.
[20:34] <bantu_> whats the python channel?
[20:34] <clooluss> baughn: No, Gutsy I think. HOw do I check.
[20:34] <Pici> bantu_: #python surprisingly
[20:34] <Baughn> clooluss: ~/.gconf/system/networking/connections
[20:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Medalgod Ubuntu Customization Kit (UCK)
[20:34] <bantu_> I'm trying #python but Ican't get in
[20:34] <Baughn> clooluss: "rm -r ~/.gconf/system/networking/connections" in a terminal will wipe it
[20:34] <Pici> !register | bantu_
[20:35] <bantu_> pici LOOOOL!!!
[20:35] <s0101> system is fully upgraded and updated
[20:35] <sweetgum> guys i have a major ubuntu problem, my login screen shows properly and when i log in all i see is a bunch of blurred patterns. ubuntu was working just fine up until this morning, anyone have any suggestions/ideas?
[20:35] <Medalgod> Jack_Sparrow:  i'm not asking how to make a disk with one... x
[20:35] <s0101> it was that before as well
[20:35] <Medalgod> dont detect my monitor correctly and sends a picture my monitor cant display
[20:35] <bantu_> thanks pici.
[20:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Medalgod what was your question again?
[20:35] <Baughn> Rezzie: Sorry, I don't know of anything accurate. It would be a neat little hack, though; you could hook the read/write syscalls to count bytes transferred over a network connection, even where to...
[20:36] <Baughn> Rezzie: Oh, but iptraf has a per-connection list. It just isn't as handy.
[20:36] <Medalgod> "(20:25:01) Medalgod: Hi all! On a Ubuntu live! disk i get no graphical environment. It seems to be outputting something that cannot be displayed by my monitor. Can anybody help me get an x environment? If it helps i have an ATi HD 3850 gfx card... help would be appreciated :)"
[20:36] <Rezzie> Baugn: Sound a bit too involved, but thanks for the hints :)
[20:36] <Baughn> sweetgum: Reboot, select failsafe from the grub menu
[20:36] <phorensic> s0101: Ok fine.. just try a reinstall, if that doesn't work, besides editing the config by hand to try and get it to work, I'd suggest using the "nv" driver
[20:36] <clooluss> baughN; Thanks, that's pointed me in the right direction. THe dir structure is slightly different, but I found a folder named after the offending AP.  Hum.
[20:38]  * Baughn shrugs
[20:38] <MikyMouse> Baughn, with the latest drivers from the repositories
[20:38] <s0101> how do i install nv driver ? and what do i do if i need to put it back in low graph with that driver?
[20:40] <DrkShadow> I'm trying to install lzma, sudo apt-get install lzma, but I get: "Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?". I've done, apt-get update, and, apt-get update --fix-missing, but I still get the same error.
[20:40] <codeshah> weird, i am trying to install a deb package but says wrong architecture i386! how can I chekc what architecture is installed?
[20:40] <phorensic> s0101: the nv driver should already be there you just have to edit the config file and replace the word "nvidia" with "nv" under i think the screen section. To try to correct the issue if the driver install doesn't work the sudo dpgk-reconfigure xserver-xorg is that you did last time..
[20:40] <clooluss> THanks baughn, that is much better.
[20:40] <MikyMouse> Baughn, GeForce 8400M GS running on 177.82 drivers
[20:40] <codeshah> trying to install flash
[20:41] <s0101> just a supid question how do i open the config file?
[20:41] <Perogies> I resized my ubuntu partition, and now the grub wont show at boot up
[20:41] <Baughn> MikyMouse: Sorry, then, can't help. I don't go for eyecandy myself, and the nvidia drivers /do/ have problems with compiz.
[20:41] <Baughn> Just less than most others.
[20:41] <Jack_Sparrow> !uuid > Perogies
[20:41] <phorensic> s0101: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[20:42] <Perogies> uuid eh? I will check into that, thanks
[20:42] <sweetgum> Baughn: I dont have a failsafe option in grub theres only recovery and memtest, i tried running the recover x from recovery btu i still have the same problem. any other ideas?
[20:42] <MikyMouse> Baughn, ok, thanks, I like the balance; Functionallity + Style
[20:42] <maco> codeshah: youre probably on 64bit then
[20:42] <Medalgod> ive managed to fire it up... for future reference (and anyone on the live! team... the disk doesn't boot r5xx & r6xx gpu's... u need to do a sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd pain to figure out but meh
[20:42] <phorensic> s0101: you can use nano in the console, if you are in gui you can use gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf  or any other text alternative (vi, vim, etc,etc)
[20:42] <codeshah> maco, hmm, weird... any way to chck?
[20:42] <maco> codeshah: there's an alpha of flash 10 available for 64bit
[20:42] <maco> codeshah: uname -a
[20:43] <codeshah> maco, yeah u are right... dang, should I have to uninstall and install the 34 bit version? I used wubi
[20:43] <maco> codeshah: 32bit you mean? ;)
[20:43] <s0101> just have a quick look http://pastebin.com/m674b0a48
[20:43] <jcapinc> hello, is there a channel for apache/ubuntu server questions?  Im a developer and I need to run PHP in files with a .htm/.html extension type
[20:43] <codeshah> maco, lol, yeah 32bit of ubuntu
[20:43] <maco> codeshah: you should be able to install it with nspluginwrapper. if you just use the flash from the repositories instead of going to adobe's site itll do it automatically
[20:43] <phorensic> jcapinc: doesn't that happen automagically?
[20:43] <maco> codeshah: or you can use the alpha flash 10 on 64bit natively
[20:43] <clooluss> Oops... I just deleted my network manager and power icons from my panel in gutsy. How do I get them back?
[20:43] <homecable> can i dcc send someone i need to test my dcc
[20:44] <maco> clooluss: you just removed the notification area. just right click and go to add to panel
[20:44] <jcapinc> phorensic, unfortunatelly it doesnt, the filenames are required to be .php or .phtml
[20:44] <phorensic> clooluss: I think it is the add to panel (by right clicking) and then notification area
[20:44] <s0101> http://pastebin.com/m196e2744 this is all of it

[20:45] <phorensic> s0101: which monitor you have settings configured for
[20:45] <phorensic> s0101: lemme look
[20:45] <maco> phorensic: you need to tell apache which file types to execute
[20:45] <DrkShadow> Can someone help me install lzma? I'm getting "Unable to fetch some archives"
[20:46] <clooluss> phorensic: THanks, that got the power icon back. What about the NM one?
[20:46] <maco> DrkShadow: does it tell you which ones? and are you able to run "apt-get update" with no problems?
[20:46] <maco> clooluss: alt+f2 and run "nm-applet"
[20:46] <DrkShadow> apt-get update runs, but with errors (Err http://us.archive.ubuntu.com feisty/main Packages -- 404 Not Found [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80] -- few more relating to feisty)
[20:46] <whitedox> How do you enable animation in gimp?
[20:47] <maco> DrkShadow: uh thatd be because feisty's gone
[20:47] <sheldonh_> been googling to try get my iwl3945-based wlan card to see my home network (sometimes i see a random neighbour, sometimes none). is there hope?
[20:47] <DrkShadow> maco: so what am I supposed to do?
[20:47] <clooluss> cool maco, thanks
[20:47] <maco> DrkShadow: all of the feisty repos have been emptied out. upgrade to something that's supported.
[20:47] <ezerhoden> sheldonh_: i have the same card, no problems here
[20:47] <DrkShadow> apparently it's still on my system.
[20:47] <DrkShadow> heh..
[20:47] <s0101> not sure i havent chanched anything the only thing i have done since install is trying ti install driver 177 and then put it back in low graph
[20:47] <molgamus> need help to configure dell latitude d610 to work in my wireless network, my mac's and pc's is very easy to set up but my ubuntu doesn't even find any networks
[20:47] <sheldonh_> ezerhoden: ubuntu 8.10 with 2.6.27-9-generic?
[20:48] <ezerhoden> yes
[20:48] <maco> DrkShadow: i recommend installing 8.04 because gutsy will reach end of life in 3 months.
[20:48] <sheldonh_> ezerhoden: 3945ABG?
[20:48] <DrkShadow> I'm gonna do a backup of this system before I do that..
[20:48] <phorensic> s0101: try gksudo nvidia-settings
[20:48] <ezerhoden> sheldonh_: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02)
[20:48] <sheldonh_> ezerhoden: dang. you in the usa?
[20:49]  * DrkShadow suddenly feels that ubuntu should not be used in a business setting
[20:49] <maco> DrkShadow: in a business setting, id say just use the long term support releases
[20:49] <cp> using openssl from command line is there a way to get the output decrypting with wrong password?
[20:49] <ezerhoden> sheldonh_: yes, why?
[20:49] <DrkShadow> maco: I'd agree with that.. damn predecessors.
[20:49] <sweetgum> anyone that can help me available?
[20:49] <maco> DrkShadow: regular releases are supported for 18 months. the long term releases are supported for 3 years on desktop and 5 years on server
[20:49] <jcapinc> so does anyone know of an apache channel?
[20:49] <s0101> a pop up says You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file
[20:49] <sheldonh_> ezerhoden: might be a regional thing. i noticed it configured for us, whereas on debian sid (where it works), it was za
[20:49] <Pici> jcapinc: #apache
[20:49] <s0101> thats prob because i am using low graph
[20:49] <maco> DrkShadow: er, there was a LTS release before feisty. it's dapper. though its end of life is this june
[20:49] <sheldonh_> ezerhoden: so maybe i've just forgotten about something i tweaked somewhere
[20:49] <ljungk> hi, what is the standard file extension for man pages? and how do I tell man where to look for the man pages for a certain program?
[20:50] <foobrew> is there an easy way to restart compiz?
[20:50] <maco> ljungk: no file extension
[20:50] <maco> foobrew: compiz --replace
[20:50] <maco> foobrew: you can just do it in a alt+f2 runbox
[20:50] <DrkShadow> does EoL mean they remove the repositories and everything, or just no more updates?
[20:50] <phorensic> !paste
[20:50] <maco> DrkShadow: at first, no updates of any sort (including security updates). a few months later, the repos are emptied.
[20:50] <molgamus> i need my wireless network to work, help me please
[20:51] <s0101> only box that isnt ticked is "include x display names in the config file"
[20:51] <foobrew> thanks maco..worked great
[20:51] <phorensic> s0101: look at my config file then look at yours: http://paste.ubuntu.com/110456/
[20:51] <maco> DrkShadow: the updates repo stays up with a single package in it: the hints for update-manager to be able to upgrade you to the new version
[20:51] <DrkShadow> so I'd have to download the entire repository to feel safe ;-)
[20:51] <maco> DrkShadow: well i wouldnt want to run without security updates available...
[20:51] <DrkShadow> internal servers.. doesn't bother me at this point.
[20:52] <powerpan> hi i had installed amarok2 but now there is no sound
[20:52] <maco> DrkShadow: every 2 years, a new LTS release comes out. that gives you a year of transition time between release and end of life
[20:52] <jonstetler> what does wine-gecko do?
[20:52] <s0101> i see, when i look at resolution settings it says that my screen is unknown
[20:52] <maco> powerpan: in ubuntu or kubuntu?
[20:52] <powerpan> ubuntu
[20:52] <whitedox> how do you make the gnome image viewer play gif's? Mine only displays the first frame.
[20:53] <maco> whitedox: i think you have to just open the image in firefox....
[20:53] <ljungk> maco: ok, but what about my other question? I have a man page in the path /usr/local/man/ (which seems to be in my manpath), but it won't get found
[20:53] <Louis> I have transmission set to autostart when I log in (via Sessions) with the "transmission %F" command... is there a way to get it to start minimized to the tray?
[20:53] <maco> powerpan: play around and see if there's a way to make it speak alsa, because kde apps use phonon and if youre running ubuntu, not kubuntu, phonon's probably not running
[20:53] <s0101> what should i do in nvidia x server settings?
[20:53] <sheldonh_> ezerhoden: thanks, that's been helpful. means i should hack on. if you have a moment, i'd love to see your: dmesg | grep iwl3945.*Linux
[20:53] <phorensic> s0101: right... i think you should try reinstalling the nvidia driveers again.. if your screen goes black we will try to help fix that
[20:53] <powerpan> the timeline is standig
[20:54] <powerpan> i klick on play
[20:54] <powerpan> but the zimeline don't start
[20:54] <phorensic> s0101: right now you are not using nvidia to manage your screens so close out of it
[20:54] <maco> ljungk: er...man path? i dont have an environment variable for that...
[20:54] <ezerhoden> sheldonh_: sure, give a second
[20:54] <s0101> i give it a go then brb
[20:54] <iPeter-> Hey, where i can find the starters wiki tutorial, to get everything what i need, example.. windows fonts..

[20:55] <sheldonh_> ezerhoden: okay, so it's gotta come down to a regional quirk
[20:55] <sheldonh_> ezerhoden: thanks, i'll see if i can remember how to zone the thing correctly
[20:55] <Rencx> how to delete folder from desktop?
[20:56] <whitedox> maco: Thanks. That will work for what I am needing to view GIF's for anyways.
[20:56] <ljungk> so basically, it should look at the right place.
[20:56] <maco> Rencx: right-click and send to trash?
[20:56] <ezerhoden> sheldonh_: if you get it sorted, let me know what the problem was
[20:56] <powerpan> i can't find a away ti change to alsa

[20:57] <Rencx> maco:  before i use shift+delete
[20:57] <maco> Rencx: wait is this a file owned by root rather than owned by you?
[20:57] <Karti> peleg: Many thanks ;)
[20:57] <perhamlinux> hi guys.
[20:57] <mcmoher59> hi all
[20:58] <perhamlinux> in ubuntu, how can I check if my wireless usb adaptor is recognized or not?
[20:58] <Rencx> its driver for windows for camera from drivers cd
[20:58] <maco> Rencx: if so, "sudo rm -rf ~/.local/share/Trash/*" and do *not* add any extra spaces in there anywhere!
[20:59] <Thurin1> perhamlinux: dmeg
[20:59] <ezerhoden> perhamlinux: check dmesg after inserting
[20:59] <Thurin1> dmesg* even
[20:59] <maco> Rencx: that would empty your Trash of everything in it
[20:59] <maco> Rencx: but if you add any extra spaces in the middle of that, you could really hurt things, so copy that exactly
[20:59] <^Zew^> Does anyone know how I could get a shell script to run at boot?
[21:00] <perhamlinux> ezerhoden, Thurin1: what should I look for?
[21:00] <mcmoher59> i want to have 2 os in my computer xD
[21:00] <Rencx> maco: ok ty it worked ;)
[21:00] <maco> ^Zew^: at boot or at login?
[21:00] <mcmoher59> at boot
[21:00] <^Zew^> boot
[21:00] <mcmoher59> yep
[21:00] <sweetgum>  ive just encountered a graphical problem in ubuntu, the login screen works fine but after i login the visual is something my monitor can not display / an invalid visual. can someone please help me to get this working i need to use Ubuntu ASAP
[21:01] <mcmoher59> install driviers
[21:01] <maco> ^Zew^: put the script in /etc/init.d and then symlink to it from /etc/rcS.d/
[21:01] <guntbert> perhamlinux: try lspci | grep -i wireless
[21:01] <ubuntuuser234234> anyone know how to keep my speaker volume from resetting to 0 on restart?
[21:01] <ubuntuuser234234> I am using alsa
[21:01] <ubuntuuser234234> as my machine has problems with pulseaudio
[21:02] <maco> ubuntuuser234234: what version of ubuntu?
[21:02] <ubuntuuser234234> 8.10
[21:02] <^Zew^> maco is there a webpage I could goto?
[21:02] <sheldonh_> ezerhoden: looks like two separate problems. 2.6.27 breaks support in iwl3945 for channels >11 (i was using 13), and you need to specify regional settings with a cfg80211 bootparam
[21:02] <sheldonh_> ezerhoden: http://www.linux-solved.com/post/solved-iwl3945-problem-after-upgrading-to-2-6-27-29338.html

[21:02] <flo__> Je recherche quelqu'un de francais pour un problème de disque dur externe merci de me répondre
[21:02] <maco> ^Zew^: er...its just an init script...
[21:02] <maco> !fr | flo__
[21:02] <perhamlinux> guntbert: I have these lines in my dmesg, does it mean it's recognized? http://rafb.net/p/2aT6M195.html
[21:02] <ezerhoden> sheldonh_: ahh
[21:02] <ubuntuuser234234> had to sudo it, is that usual?
[21:02] <sheldonh_> ezerhoden: brb, gonna test
[21:03] <perhamlinux> guntbert: btw, it's usb
[21:03] <s0101> hi guys i am back again
[21:03] <s0101> same problem
[21:03] <Rencx> i have problem to see long letters in some programs what i have to do?
[21:03] <maco> ^Zew^: you *could* just put the script in /etc/rcS.d/ but last time i said that someone pointed out that it's not really the "right" way
[21:03] <ubuntuuser234234> ezerhoden, had to sudo it, is that usual?
[21:03] <s0101> i installed the 177 driver and my screen went black after restart
[21:03] <maco> ubuntuuser234234: yes, thats normal
[21:03] <maco> ubuntuuser234234: also whats the output of "which alsactl"?
[21:03] <ubuntuuser234234> maco, ok, just checking :)
[21:04] <ubuntuuser234234> /sbin/alsactl
[21:04] <Rencx> maco: whad this "sudo apt-get install wpasupplicant" comand do?
[21:04] <guntbert> perhamlinux: those lines don't tell *me* anything, but you can try lsusb | grep -i wireless   too
[21:04] <maco> ubuntuuser234234: and the file /etc/init.d/alsa-utils exists, right?
[21:04] <ubuntuuser234234> yep
[21:04] <maco> Rencx: it installs a package called wpasupplicant...which i'm 99% sure is installed by default
[21:04] <^Zew^> maco Im trying to run a auto restore of a XP partion with not need for any input form the end user
[21:05] <sheldonh_> ezerhoden: confirmed. didn't have to play with the regdom, just changing channel was enough. how do i nominate this for inclusion in the release errata?
[21:05] <s0101> i am ack at square 1 again
[21:05] <Rencx> maco: and if it is instaled i have deleted it
[21:05] <phorensic> s0101: is it crashing or giving you text at all?
[21:05] <maco> Rencx: removing wpasupplicant would remove a LOT of other things...like network-manager...
[21:06] <Rencx> maco:  can i fix is it installed?
[21:06] <s0101> i can se everything until the login screen i can hear the sound from the login screen and my only option is to press ctrl+alt+f4
[21:06] <mavsman4457> How can I install KDE 4.2 without messing up gnome at all?
[21:06] <ezerhoden> sheldonh_: i have no idea, sorry
[21:06] <maco> Rencx: i dont actually know what your problem is
[21:06] <sheldonh_> ezerhoden: no worries, tomorrow is another day :)
[21:06] <ezerhoden> sheldonh_: new to ubuntu myself
[21:06] <maco> ubuntuuser234234: can you pastebin the contents of your /var/lib/alsa/asound.state for me?
[21:07] <ubuntuuser234234> sure
[21:07] <sheldonh_> it xchat where it's at for irc in gnome? :/
[21:07] <maco> ubuntuuser234234: brb, moving to another physical room
[21:07] <phorensic> s0101: now can you paste your xorg.conf file??
[21:08] <Rencx> maco: i run that to fix wireless network..
[21:08] <s0101> how did i get in from term?
[21:08] <dman> here's an odd question:  If I have 4 usb ports, and set the bios to boot from usb, how do I know which one it's trying to boot from?
[21:08] <Rencx> i have problem to see long letters in some programs what i have to do?
[21:08] <White_Pelican> is jaunty available in ubuntu?
[21:08] <angie> how do i install pcf fonts?
[21:08] <dayo> !flash > dayo
[21:08] <The_Joe_> I have the hda-intel driver on an ALC883 sound card - my microphone will not record at all.
[21:08] <mavsman4457> Can I install KDE 4.2 without messing up gnome?
[21:08] <whitedox> The milliseconds in gimp for a gif image means how fast it goes. So the smaller the number, the faster it goes? Or the other way around?
[21:09] <ubuntuuser234234> http://paste2.org/p/137008
[21:09] <guntbert> !jaunty | White_Pelican
[21:09] <The_Joe_> mavsman4457, Yes - sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[21:09] <The_Joe_> DO NOT apt-grt
[21:09] <The_Joe_> * apt-get
[21:09] <s0101> http://pastebin.com/m133f600e
[21:09] <phorensic> s0101: maybe you can copy it to a thumb drive?
[21:09] <ubuntuuser234234> The_Joe_, why? Didn't realize there would be much of a difference.
[21:09] <ezerhoden> The_Joe_: this is a built-in mic? and you have it unmuted ?
[21:10] <s0101> which one?
[21:10] <The_Joe_> ezerhoden, No it's not built in, I'm on a desktop
[21:10] <maco> Rencx: what? you use wpasupplicant manually, and now the package has been mysteriously deleted
[21:10] <maco> Rencx: ?
[21:10] <The_Joe_> ezerhoden, I have Capture 1 and Capture unmuted as well as "Microphone" and "Front Mic"
[21:10] <Rencx> maco: i did this http://www.ubuntugeek.com/enable-wpa-wireless-access-point-in-ubuntu.html
[21:11] <phorensic> s0101: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[21:11] <ubuntuuser234234> Rencx, oh God that is old
[21:11] <s0101> why t a thumb drive?
[21:11] <maco> ubuntuuser234234: after you do "sudo alsactl store" can you do "echo $?"
[21:11] <ljungk> still no one that knows about how to get man to find its files??
[21:12] <maco> Rencx: holy crap those directions are ANCIENT
[21:12] <Rencx> ubuntuuser234234, maco: but now my wireles working
[21:13] <maco> Rencx: you dont need to work with the wpasupplicant file manually at all. i dont even know how to do that. just use the network manager icon at the top of the screen. pick the network you want, and itll ask in a nice little graphical box for the key
[21:13] <ubuntuuser234234> maco, what does that do?
[21:13] <maco> ubuntuuser234234: if it gives a 0, that means "it claims to have worked"
[21:13] <phorensic> s0101: well if you can paste it here thats fine too but i guess you already went back to low graphics mode then?
[21:13] <Rencx> ubuntuuser234234, maco: can i rool back somhow
[21:13] <chazco> Hi... how can I remote control my netbook from my desktop (both Ubuntu)... need to run Inkscape but the netbook resolution is too low
[21:13] <ubuntuuser234234> Rencx, that is after you undo why you did following a document from 3 years ago
[21:13] <guntbert> ljungk: my man never had any problems..., did you read man manpath?
[21:14] <s0101> yes iam back in low graph
[21:14] <ubuntuuser234234> maco, ok, it gave a 0.
[21:14] <grayhane> I just got a nvidia card for the system but cannot get it working,
[21:14] <sweetgum>  ive just encountered a graphical problem in ubuntu, the login screen works fine but after i login the visual is something my monitor can not display / an invalid visual. can someone please help me to get this working i need to use Ubuntu ASAP
[21:14] <ljungk> guntbert: yeah, and it seems to be correctly configured. /usr/local/man is in the path, which is the place where i put the file
[21:14] <s0101> if i activate the driver it says to restart the computer do you mean that i should activate and then check the file and copy before restart?
[21:15] <The_Joe_> Ehh anyone?
[21:15] <ubuntuuser234234> I think this is one of the biggest problems with ubuntu outdated how-to's leading people to screw up their system
[21:15] <maco> Rencx: wow that was written in edgy? that wasnt even necessary in dapper... anyway, you dont need /etc/default/wpasupplicant at all
[21:15] <Rencx> ubuntuuser234234: ?
[21:15] <guntbert> chazco: use ssh with the -X (that tunnels X through) ssh
[21:15] <Rencx> maco: i will delete wpasupplicant..?
[21:15] <maco> Rencx: just that file. keep the package.
[21:16] <chazco> guntbert - I've considered that... i take it the apps act exactly as if they were on the netbook (ie, filesystems available)
[21:16] <maco> ubuntuuser234234: ok so its saying it can write to the asound.state just fine... can you do "sudo alsa force-reload" and then pastebin the asound.state again?
[21:16] <X-Seti> Got little problem with ubuntu for anyone who has had the same issue, when I boot up and login I get ISD server error that seems to open the ica process, Every time I boot up now and login I have one more extra window to close, 21 error windows now?
[21:16] <phorensic> s0101: after you activate the driver restart and then paste the file
[21:16] <_aee_> hello, i got a CD from Ubuntu ship-it program and installed it. now i'm not able to use programs like PHP, mysql, GCC etc.
[21:16] <guntbert> ljungk: I didn't follow, so please tell me your problem again
[21:16] <Rencx> maco: sudo rm /etc/default/wpasupplicant
[21:17] <MTecknology> How can I make hidden directories not show up with <tab><tab> ?
[21:17] <ubuntuuser234234> ok, let me quit some stuff first
[21:17] <vigo> _aee_: are they installed yet?
[21:17] <guntbert> chazco: yes, at first try xeyes (just for fun and to it works)
[21:17] <maco> Rencx: yeah
[21:17]  * The_Joe_ is now frustrated
[21:17] <guntbert> *and to see it works
[21:17] <ljungk> guntbert: i have a manpage, spim.man, that i want man to find when i do 'man spim'. since /usr/local/man seems to be the place to put user man pages, I put it there.
[21:17] <chazco> guntbert - Are there any major security risks with using SSH? The netbook is often connected to public networks (i'll not be using SSH through them, but i asume it will still be running)
[21:17] <s0101> ok
[21:18] <Rencx> maco: ty :)
[21:18] <ubuntuuser234234> http://paste2.org/p/137014
[21:18] <yo_momma> Is there a good video card that I can get the just WORKS with 8.10?
[21:18] <maco> ljungk: um looking in /usr/man...
[21:18] <_aee_> vigo: i don't know. actually, are they included in std. distros of Ubuntu. (I got only one CD)
[21:19] <yo_momma> something i don't have to configure or anything?
[21:19] <ubuntuuser234234> yo_momma, depends on what you mean by "just works"
[21:19] <maco> ljungk: you need to add a directory for what man seciton it is (man1, man2, etc)
[21:19] <mneptok> chazco: there are always securioty risks in running daemons that accept non-local connections. but the risks with SSH are few, and you could always stop the daemon when you're not using it.
[21:19] <chazco> mneptok - Thanks :0
[21:19] <ubuntuuser234234> yo_momma, most will work fine, but there are no 3d drivers for them or they have very limited drivers etc
[21:19] <chazco> mneptok - Thanks :) even
[21:19] <phorensic> yo_momma: Im using the geforce 9800GT it works perfectly
[21:19] <_aee_> vigo: how can i see all installed programs in Ubuntu? (I'm new to both linux & Ubuntu)
[21:19] <ubuntuuser234234> yo_momma, so though they will work, they won't work as good as they could.
[21:19] <yo_momma> I have a via chrome9 intergrated graphics and i can't get the 3d acceleration  to work on it
[21:19] <maco> ljungk: and it appears the manpage should be gzipped
[21:19] <ljungk> guntbert: ok, and then just the file in there with the same name as the program? what about file extension?
[21:20] <Rencx> maco: do you have more time, to help me i have some questions?
[21:20] <vigo> _aee_: They may not be actually installed on the CD, I would check Synaptic to see if they are, and or if any dependencies  are needed.
[21:20] <yo_momma> I just want something that I can play graphic intense games
[21:20] <maco> ubuntuuser234234: and pastebin "amixer -c0"
[21:21] <guntbert> ljungk: I didn't do anything with manpages (except read them) yet :), but I seem to remember something like groff or so, and a cache...
[21:21] <gulderen> xxxx
[21:21] <maco> ubuntuuser234234: your asound.state looks like it didnt revert to a bunch of 0s...
[21:21] <yo_momma> I had a nvidia 5500 and could never get that one to work
[21:21] <gulderen> sgds
[21:21] <gulderen> hi
[21:21] <mneptok> yo_momma: graphic intense games in Linux? really?
[21:21] <vigo> _aee_ : I am returning to Ubuntu after a long sail, so I am a bit slow on it still myself.
[21:22] <The_Joe_> Thank you very much...
[21:22] <yo_momma> I installed the newest version of openchrome and went to the via website and got their driver and neither worked
[21:22] <yo_momma> well, i guess better than aisle riot or something
[21:22] <Rencx> maco: why my Keyring shows up when i start my pc and want Auto join wireless network?
[21:23] <yo_momma> like some fps games like alien arena or open arena
[21:23] <ubuntuuser234234> maco, can't decide if that is good or bad
[21:23] <ubuntuuser234234> maco, If it did I would at least have an idea of what is causing this
[21:23] <maco> Rencx: do you have it set to auto-login?
[21:23] <ljungk> guntbert, maco: making a .gz in a man1 solved it. thank you for your help!
[21:24] <chetnick> hi, does anybody know what is that web browser, it says mozilla but it is not firefox. I think i saw it on backtrack.
[21:24] <Rencx> maco:  yes
[21:24] <yo_momma> i can't get 3d acceleration to work with my via chrome9 cipset and would like to
[21:24] <maco> chetnick: seamonkey?
[21:24] <vigo> chetnick: SeaMonkey?
[21:24] <drumstyk1> would anyone be willing to help me with my fstab or permissions? It says I don't have privileges to mount one of my drives.
[21:24] <yo_momma> with only 2d, its very slow
[21:25] <maco> Rencx: you have to unlock the keyring somehow. if you use the login screen, it gets unlocked when you enter the login password. if you dont enter the password at the login screen, then you have to manually unlock the keyring
[21:25] <chetnick> maco: vigo: i found that one, but it says it is "all-in-one application formerly known as the "Mozilla Application Suite"
[21:25] <drumstyk1> this is my fstab entry: /dev/sda3 /media/disk vfat default 0 0
[21:25] <chetnick> i will try it
[21:25] <maco> chetnick: right. remember Mozilla was a browser and it had an html editor and a mail client built in?
[21:25] <maco> chetnick: that became Seamonkey
[21:25] <chetnick> ok, thanks guys :D
[21:26] <phorensic> drumstyk1: you don't have to use uuid ???
[21:26] <Rencx> maco: do you now how to unlock it
[21:26] <maco> Rencx: by entering your password when it asks
[21:26] <drumstyk1> phorensic: i'm sorry, not sure what uuid is...
[21:26] <mitchell> hello
[21:26] <vigo> chetchick: Thunderbird might be what you are looking for,,it is the e.mail by Mozilla,,,very good one also.
[21:26] <ljungk> guntbert, maco: FYI, actually it was NOT a .gz. it was supposed to have the '.1' ending.
[21:26] <s0101> hi again i installed driver 96 and my computer restarted but it is a bit slow
[21:26] <phorensic> drumstyk1: sort of like the serial number of your drive
[21:27] <regeya> !uuid
[21:27] <chetnick> vigo: Thunderbird is email clinet not browser?
[21:27] <maco> ljungk: in man1 it's .1.gz, in man3, it's .3.gz
[21:27] <maco> ljungk:  you know *which* man section its supposed to be in, right?
[21:27] <s0101> http://pastebin.com/m35936903
[21:28] <Fuzzy> hey guys tell me a similar program to FL Studio, like the windows on ubuntu
[21:28] <chetnick> vigo: it is definitely SeaMonkey :) Thanks again.
[21:28] <vigo> chetchick: Thunderbird is part of the SeaMonkey application/repository...it is the e,mail only, SeaMonkey Suite has Thunderbird included in it.
[21:28] <s0101> but if i right click on the desktop i cant se the text in the pop up menu
[21:28] <drumstyk1> phorensic: so if i find out what my uuid is would you be able to suggest changes to my fstab or do you think the problem lies within the chmod stuff?
[21:28] <mitchell> please help with firefox, when I rightclick on a link any of the options from the popup menu is executed without making the second click
[21:28] <ljungk> maco: yeah, but the .gz is not mandatory, only the digit. i guess it's '1', since it's a 'general command' rather than anything else
[21:28] <s0101> have a look at paste bin
[21:28] <s0101> http://pastebin.com/m35936903
[21:29] <phorensic> drumstyk1:  UUID="b55d4960-9dd7-4a40-8112-19a6bff7d785"	/media/teradrive	ext3	defaults	0	0    that is anexample of my entry to mount my additional hdd
[21:29] <maco> ljungk: thatd be 8 then
[21:29] <maco> ljungk: 1 is for system utilities
[21:29] <mneptok> !pastebin > phorensic
[21:29] <maco> ljungk: see man man for the list
[21:29] <maco> ljungk: er 7, not 8, sorry
[21:29] <phorensic> mneptok: thatwas only 1 line wth
[21:30] <mcmoher59> hi guys
[21:30] <s0101> this program is flimering after the install
[21:30] <mneptok> phorensic: please do not paste output ot the channel. it was one line, but filled with <tab> escape codes.
[21:30] <phorensic> mneptok: ok thanks pal
[21:30] <mitchell> need help with firefox
[21:30] <binspace> I'd like to make a script to select the "control is mapped to the win keys" keyboard option. Does anybody know where the configuration is located?
[21:30] <drumstyk1> phorensic: that is extremely helpful... does this give you read and write permissions by default or do you still have to go into sudo nautilus to make changes?
[21:31] <ljungk> maco: well according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man_pages, 1 is general commands. but i guess 7, miscellaneous is pretty appropriate
[21:31] <phorensic> drumstyk1: everything has worked just fine for me mounting in this way.. remember you can sudo mount -a i believe once you make thi entry to test
[21:31] <mcmoher59> how can i install opera in linux ubuntu 8.04?

[21:32] <mcmoher59> hę?
[21:32] <ljungk> maco: executble programs and shell commands, sounds like what i have? (spim, mips simulator)
[21:32] <mcmoher59> any polish?
[21:32] <mitchell> please right click in firefox does weird things
[21:32] <mneptok> !pl > mcmoher59

[21:32] <Rencx> maco: but i think that Keyring make some problems with wireless network, and sometimes, i cant see or aces network even if network is available
[21:32] <ortsvorsteher> mcmoher59: try sudo apt-get install opera
[21:32] <mitchell> some help
[21:32] <mcmoher59> ok
[21:32] <mcmoher59> thx
[21:32] <drumstyk1> phorensic: i can't thank you enough for the help... I am trying it now
[21:32] <unix_remote> i can rest password from recovery mode right?
[21:32] <phorensic> s0101: So did that restart get the drivers to work correctly?
[21:32] <fearlessdawg> mitchell: whats wrong with your firefox?
[21:33] <mneptok> unix_remote: correct
[21:33] <drumstyk1> !uuid
[21:33] <mitchell> when I rightclick on a link any of the options from the popup menu is executed randomly without making the second click
[21:33] <rdw200169> unix_remote, yes; you just go into a shell and change it there
[21:33] <s0101> i chose driver 96 but it i will also try with 173
[21:33] <unix_remote> mneptok: link to tutorial/
[21:33] <s0101> brb
[21:33] <fearlessdawg> mitchell: i see what i can find out
[21:33] <phorensic> drumstyk1: no problem, someone mentioned that there was some requirement to use the uuid instead of thee device path in intrepid?
[21:33] <maco> mcmoher59: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser
[21:33] <mneptok> unix_remote: well, since you asked so nicely ...
[21:33] <unix_remote> mneptok: nevermind ;-)

[21:35] <flixporty> hello guys
[21:35] <flixporty> is there a safe way to stop madm mirroring raid
[21:35] <flixporty> do i have to change the partition type after removing the partitions from the raid
[21:35] <fearlessdawg> mitchell: i have looked and it is a report bug. see here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.0/+bug/206295
[21:35] <mrpinky> hi, is there a command to see what groups i am a member of (for permissions purposes)?
[21:36] <ortsvorsteher> mrpinky: id must give you an answer
[21:36] <mitchell> thanks, now im gonna check this
[21:36] <maco> Rencx: are they networks that have weak signals? or maybe theyre 802.11b? ive heard of issues with 802.11b on intel wireless card
[21:36] <mcmoher59> it didnt works
[21:36] <mrpinky> ortsvorsteher, great thanks :)
[21:36] <lasivian> is there any way to share desktop themes across multiple computers?
[21:36] <ortsvorsteher> :)
[21:37] <rdw200169> lasivian, what do you mean? it's *possible*
[21:37] <Rencx> maco: i have strong network how to see what of 802.11a/b/g i have?
[21:37] <swtaarrs_> is there a way to have apt-get downgrade all installed packages to the current available version?  I installed some updates from intrepid-backports and intrepid-proposed that I want to remove
[21:37] <rdw200169> lasivian, but you need to provide more information, what exaclty do you want to share?
[21:37] <maco> Rencx: check your router's settings
[21:37] <mcmoher59> die oper didnt work!
[21:37] <rdw200169> lasivian, are these newly installed systems, or are they already in place?
[21:37] <mcmoher59> xD
[21:38] <ortsvorsteher> !details | mcmoher59
[21:38] <mneptok> swtaarrs_: remove the packages, disable -backports and -proposed and then re-install the packages
[21:38] <swtaarrs_> mneptok: I thought of that, but a lot of them are essential things like gcc so that won't really work :(
[21:39] <Rencx> maco: it is ok if ubuntu dot have problems with wpa2
[21:39] <rdw200169> lasivian, b/c it may just be a matter of copying working configs into /etc/skel for new accounts on those computers... anything in /etc/skel gets copied to the home folder when it's created for new accounts (according to the default PAM rules)
[21:39] <mneptok> swtaarrs_: gcc is not essential.
[21:39] <maco> Rencx: networkmanager shouldnt have a problem with it, but again, it depends on your wireless card's driver what will and won't work
[21:39] <mneptok> swtaarrs_: gcc is an optional package, usually installed as part of build-essential
[21:39] <maco> Rencx: though that does remind me that i should switch my router to wpa2...
[21:40] <swtaarrs_> mneptok: apt-get wants to remove a huge list of packages including openoffice and other thing if I try to remove gcc, and there are probably other packages that really are essential
[21:40] <victorbrca> Hi all, would someone mind helping with a simple question on lauchpad?
[21:40] <rdw200169> lasivian, you could even go so far as to set up a new installation of Ubuntu, get everything working the way you want, then copy all the hidden folders and files to /etc/skel
[21:41] <rdw200169> lasivian, then, taking that same copy and putting in on the rest of the computers
[21:41] <mneptok> swtaarrs_: then your system is way out of spec. OO.org has no dependency on gcc
[21:41] <Spec> it's true, no dependency.
[21:41] <mneptok> swtaarrs_: OO.org is installed on every Ubuntu system. gcc is not.
[21:42] <swtaarrs_> mneptok: independent of those issues, is there any other way to do what I want?
[21:42] <maco> Spec: highlighted on that one, eh?
[21:42] <Spec> maco: not at all ;)
[21:43] <s0101> hi again forensic
[21:43] <s0101> wierd i checked again driver 96 is the only one i can get to work
[21:44] <s0101> the side menu in this program with all the user names are blinking but besides that it seams to be allright
[21:44] <s0101> maybe i should change in the config file to nv?
[21:45] <realmatt> Why is all the external sata drive docks that I see limited to 1TB hard drives?
[21:45] <phorensic1> s0101: man.. sorry i cant help u better
[21:45] <s0101> thanks anyway you helped me a lot
[21:46] <guntbert> swtaarrs_: not sure about the implications, but as far as I remember I disabled those repos and let the apps just "peter out"
[21:47] <the_dark_warrio> I have a windows vista on the LAN, and it requires a password to be accessed. But if I try to access it with Ubuntu, it shows 0 itens and don't request any pass. Any hints?
[21:47] <iPeter-> Is there any way to change volume % when scrolling from g15 volumecontrol?
[21:47] <Louis> I'm running xubuntu 8.10 and i'm trying to configure my screen saver to display photos in my photo folder.  However, I don't seem to have a photo directory ... is there a place I can define it/
[21:47] <Louis> ?
[21:47] <Mud|afk> iPeter- using windows :+ ?
[21:48] <Mud|afk> j/k
[21:48] <iPeter-> Mud|afk, Ubuntu 8.04.2
[21:48] <naki> what is better
[21:48] <naki> Ubtuntu or KUbuntu
[21:48] <maco> Louis: just create the directory in your home directory
[21:48] <iPeter-> i prefer for ubuntu.
[21:48] <Mud|afk> me too , ubuntu
[21:48] <maco> naki: personal preference...
[21:48] <rdw200169> naki, it doesn't matter; the difference is preference; look up KDE and Gnome, and pick which GUI you would like more
[21:49] <guntbert> !best | naki
[21:49] <maco> naki: i think gnome's simpler than kde, but some people like how many options kde gives you
[21:49] <Mud|afk> naki: download 2 live cd's
[21:49] <Mud|afk> and try out
[21:49] <naki> are they not just the same OS just different visuals?
[21:49] <rdw200169> naki, yes.
[21:49] <ruediix> does anyone know the website for metabuntu.  Google seems to be censoring it.
[21:49] <rdw200169> naki, you can have both if you want, for example, d/l ubuntu, then download kubuntu-desktop
[21:49] <Solet> how do you add eee-control to start up?
[21:49] <maco> ruediix: medibuntu, you mean?
[21:49] <naki> so i could just apt-get kde and well
[21:49] <rdw200169> naki, then, you will have both options at your disposal
[21:49] <naki> yeah
[21:49] <iPeter-> Is there any way to change volume % when scrolling from g15 volumecontrol, using ubuntu 8.04.2.
[21:49] <naki> hrm
[21:49] <ruediix> yeah.
[21:49] <naki> ok well thanks then
[21:50] <maco> naki: kubuntu-desktop is what to install to get all the default kubuntu apps
[21:50] <Louis> maco:  will ubuntu recongize it as *the* photos directory?
[21:50] <ruediix> Ah, I got it.  Never mind.
[21:50] <maco> Louis: yes, and capitalization counts
[21:50] <robertz> how do i make my webcam framerate faster? is it possible?
[21:50] <Louis> maco:  and besides, i'd like to have it be /var/lib/mythtv/pictures  ... or sync it with the one in my home directory
[21:50] <rdw200169> naki, maco yes, the desktop package also gets all the ubuntu specific configurations and integrability with the ubuntu-way so the desktop will look like the screenshot on the website, etc...
[21:51] <maco> Louis: it has to be ~/Photos, but you can make ~/Photos be a symlink to /var/lib/mythtv/pictures
[21:51] <user01> is there an opensource rar password recovery tool?
[21:52] <Louis> maco:  okay cool... and how would I make a sym link?
[21:52] <user01> i found old files i stored 5 years ago but i forgot the password
[21:52] <rdw200169> maco, ln -s /var/lib/mythtv/pictures /home/user/Photos
[21:53] <user01> unless the file is just corrupt after 5 years :)
[21:53] <guntbert> !cracking | user01
[21:53] <user01> they are my photos :p
[21:53] <maco> Louis: what rdw200169 just said
[21:53] <Louis> user01:  are they encyrpted?
[21:53] <Louis> maco: got it, thanks... and the screen saver app will automatically read that properly?
[21:53] <rdw200169> maco, Louis whoops ;)
[21:53] <user01> Louis, no i just created a rar a while back with a password
[21:54] <maco> Louis: should
[21:54] <Louis> rdw200169:  haha thanks anyway!
[21:54] <RaverWild> hello guys. a question - what could be the reason of a popular package existing in hardy, to not exist in interpid repos? i searched 'starfighter' and it is present in hardy and missing in interpid repos. ideas?
[21:54] <Louis> user01:  i believe that encrypts it...
[21:54] <Louis> in which case you're screwed
[21:54] <user01> Louis, ah ok
[21:54] <user01> darn
[21:54] <Louis> yeah...
[21:54] <Louis> unless you can get a CRAY supercomputer
[21:54] <Slart> RaverWild: might not have been updated properly.. or some other problem
[21:54] <petllama> i got like 4 of those
[21:54] <rdw200169> RaverWild, it probably fell into dis-repair, i.e. the original maintainer dis-appeared or something
[21:55] <Louis> lol
[21:55] <petllama> ooo you said cray supercomputer... i thought it was grey computer
[21:55] <petllama> ^_^
[21:55] <drumstyk1> phorensic1: i just rebooted to see that you solved my problem... i have spent countless hours googling and trying different configurations. Thank you so much! You completely made my day!
[21:55] <user01> Louis, i think that was my period where i was using randomly generated stuff to pass encode everything too
[21:55] <rdw200169> Slart, yeah, that too
[21:56] <RaverWild> Slart, rdw200169 - is there a site where people could take look at the progress of such packages?
[21:56] <rdw200169> RaverWild, most of that takes place on launchpad.net nowadays
[21:56] <RaverWild> rdw200169, thanks
[21:56] <Slart> RaverWild: apparently it contained non-free data according to this page https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/starfighter/1.1-7ubuntu1
[21:56] <totix801> Hey, what parameters do I need to let GNU patch find it's files to patch automatically?
[21:56] <user01> Louis, i was from a large family where everyone used the same computer :)
[21:57] <user01> and it was windows :(
[21:57] <RaverWild> Slart, thanks
[21:57] <Louis> user01:  aah yeah... been there
[21:57] <Ward1983> is there a version of the liveCD that will boot on systems with only 128MB memory?
[21:57] <Louis> user01:  i know there are tools that can brute force, but if your pass was more than like... 5 or 6 characters, i wouldn't bother
[21:58] <Slart> Ward1983: you could try xubuntu... I think it's the lightest of the versions.. not sure it will work on 128Mb though
[21:58] <phorensic1> drumstyk1: awesome glad i could return the favor
[21:58] <user01> Louis, eh i will keep it in my archive for when computers become like crays in the future :)
[21:58] <Ward1983> Slart, ah didnt know it had a livecd thanx
[21:58] <rdw200169> RaverWild, seems to have skipped intrepid, but look, it's gonna be in jaunty (wierd!) https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/starfighter
[21:58] <Louis> user01:  don't hold your breath... it still takes a few days to crack DES
[21:59] <Slart> rdw200169: yup.. or at least it's in development..
[21:59] <RaverWild> rdw200169, strange. are such stuff happen often?
[21:59] <rdw200169> Slart, RaverWild ah, seems as though it was deleted in intrepid due to 'non-free data' according to the publishing history
[21:59] <Louis> maco:  the symlink is there (double checked) but the screen saver doesn't seem to be working... at least not according to the preview
[22:00] <Louis> any thoughts?
[22:00] <rdw200169> RaverWild, it will when there's 'non-free' data!
[22:00] <user01> Louis, oh well it will be like a time capsule then in 20 years or so
[22:00] <maco> Louis: is the symlink the right direction?
[22:00] <phorensic1> Louis: just a thought but have you look at the permissions of the pics?
[22:00] <Louis> haha there you go =)
[22:00] <tag> Since upgrading to intrepid, my GDM splash screen shows up incredibly small (about 1/16th of my screen size) in the top left corner of my physical screen area [ thinkpad T60, ati mobility X1400 ].  When I log in, everything looks just fine...any ideas on how to fix that?
[22:00] <maco> uh battery
[22:00] <maco> im out
[22:00] <RaverWild> rdw200169, there are some links. i'll try follow and hope would lead to packages to download. or sources... looks like this is the only thing left
[22:01] <Louis> phorensic1:  let me check that now.
[22:01] <Louis> maco:  i typed in what i was suggested earlier verbatim (although i did replace "user" with my username)
[22:01] <Louis> but when i graphically double click on the symlink in Photos, it goes to the right directory
[22:01] <rdw200169> RaverWild, you could take a shot at the jaunty version, maybe the dependencies match up, i don't know (i'm still on hardy)
[22:03] <Peddy> when I'm installing a certain package, apt-get wants me to uninstall a bunch of others. Is there a way to force apt-get to only *install* the package, and uninstall nothing?
[22:03] <RaverWild> rdw200169, im curious - in general on ubuntu, if i install a package from source or manually downloaded package and this package is available on the repo, on newer version in the repo, will the package manager update my installation of this package? or it skips manually installed stuff? never tried this
[22:03] <phorensic1> Peddy: the other packages are dependencies

[22:03] <Louis> phorensic1:  my user owns the photos, and the photo directory allows the group (of which my user is a member ) both read and write access... so that seems to be okay
[22:03] <Brack10> Ubuntu deteced my LCD's resolution incorrectly and I can't force it in xorg.conf.  Can anyone point me in the right direction?
[22:04] <Peddy> phoenixz, it's *uninstalling* packages
[22:04] <phoenixz> Peddy: excuse me?
[22:04] <Peddy> phorensic1, , it's *uninstalling* packages
[22:04] <rdw200169> RaverWild, well, that depends; when you install it from source, you can set it to install to /opt or usr/share/local instead of usr/share which is the ubuntu default
[22:04] <phoenixz> Peddy: I think you have to talk to phorensic1
[22:04] <Peddy> sorry phoenixz, wrong person :P
[22:04] <phorensic1> Peddy: ahhh
[22:05] <Goliard> irc.darksin.it
[22:05] <RaverWild> rdw200169, ok thanks man
[22:05] <rdw200169> RaverWild, but, if you have both installed at the same time, i'm not quite sure which binary it will pick, i.e. /usr/bin/starfighter or /usr/local/bin/starfighter
[22:05] <biouser> anyone got a favored way of normalizing audio in either a ogv or flv video file?
[22:06] <rdw200169> RaverWild, but, if you had source installed to /usr/share and tried to install a deb that put files in the same places, i'm pretty sure it overwrites them, i can't remember
[22:06] <Peddy> phorensic1, because installing the nvidia drivers uninstall xserver-xorg, which doesn't help :P. It's a bug. I'm asking here about the force-package thing, because it's not an exclusively Jaunty question.
[22:07] <gsdgsd> anyone have any experience with vsftpd?
[22:07] <phorensic1> Peddy: I see.. i couldn't find anything to force it to only uninstall the singular package and not its dependencies.. what a lame bug
[22:07] <Pi3rrot> hi all
[22:08] <phorensic1> Peddy: prolly could always just to that and then reinstall the needed packages =-p
[22:08] <Peddy> phorensic1, I don't want to uninstall a singular package, I meant I want to *install* one package, and that requires me to *uninstall* dozens of important system packages.
[22:08] <Pi3rrot> how can i bridge my wireless internet whith my wired ethernet interfcace eth0?
[22:08] <rdw200169> Pi3rrot, you want to share internet i take it?  does it *have* to be bridged (i.e. like a switch)?
[22:08] <phorensic1> Peddy: i see.. why the hell would it do that?
[22:09] <onThedesk> I need help with installing gyachi yahoo chat client on ubuntu linux
[22:09] <biouser> gsdgsd sounds familiar, what is it?
[22:09] <onThedesk> is this the right place to ask my question?
[22:09] <biouser> onThedesk you never know until you ask... I can't tell you anything about it but someone *may*
[22:10] <Peddy> phorensic1, I don't know... here's a pastebin if it makes things clearer: http://pastebin.com/m549450a6
[22:10] <phorensic1> Peddy: did you try the man page for apt-get ?
[22:10] <rdw200169> onThedesk, have you tried pidgin first? it does yahoo chat
[22:10] <onThedesk> rdw200169,  I am sorry but it does not have yahoo chat
[22:10] <onThedesk> rdw200169, it does not have 80% of yahoo's features
[22:11] <Peddy> phorensic1, I'm having a look through the man pages now.
[22:11] <onThedesk> rdw200169,  Perhaps it is the time when the community should stop refering pidgin as an alternate to yahoo
[22:11] <rdw200169> onThedesk, alright, good luck
[22:11] <biouser> Peddy looks like you would probably be okay, but don't necessarily take my word for it ;)
[22:11] <onThedesk> :)
[22:11] <biouser> nvidia-180-kernel-source nvidia-glx-180 xserver-xorg xserver-xorg-core
[22:11] <biouser> might get you back
[22:11] <Dermot> ello
[22:12] <onThedesk> The problem is that 64bit package someone provided at ubuntu forum does not have voice chat
[22:12] <biouser> Peddy hmmm uninstalling xorg though, I see your dilemma
[22:12] <phorensic1> onThedesk: but you still get to im using the yahoo protocol and for most people thats enough
[22:12] <Peddy> biouser, it's uninstalling xserver-xorg :p
[22:12] <onThedesk> 32 bit has voice chat but i am unable to install it
[22:12] <Peddy> yep
[22:12] <Dermot> yeah i installed the 64bit version and voice chat doesn't even open
[22:12] <dartagnon1234> So, I'm new to ssh.  Is it possible for me to log onto my computer via my phone's ssh client, start a download/update/torrent session, log out of my ssh session and keep the download/etc going?
[22:13] <biouser> dartagnon1234 maybe if you run it in the background
[22:13] <biouser> dartagnon1234 I don't think so though
[22:13] <Dermot> The voice box doesn't even open
[22:13] <onThedesk> phorensic no actually most people also need webcam support and voice chat We are talking 2008 now even web based email programs such as gmail has voice and cam now
[22:13] <Peddy> phorensic1, it's OK uninstall 180, though, even when 180 isn't installed in the first place, it still wants to remove xserver-xorg and all that other stuff. So it's not removing xserver-xorg *because* it's removing nvidia180, it's removing xserver-xorg because it's install 173. Installing 180 does not force the  uninstallation of these packages.
[22:13] <Peddy> biouser, that comment to phorensic was meant for you as well :)
[22:13] <shakesbier> hello guys, i could need some help with xchat, because i dont find a way to make it use iso-8859 for western characters set, firefox does not use it automatically neither :(
[22:13] <jtaji> dartagnon1234: best way is to start it in a screen session... or you could use nohup
[22:13] <Dermot> The cam opens fine, just wont broadcast even though it says "broadcasting" it actually aint
[22:13] <jtaji> !screen | dartagnon1234
[22:14] <chupy> i have a problem with pulse audio ALSA lib pulse.c:272:(pulse_connect) PulseAudio: Unable to connect: Connection refused
[22:14] <__kevin__> i have an issue with adobe flash plugin for firefox -- I installed the latest plugin and I still cannot view flash objects
[22:14] <chupy> can anyone help me?
[22:14] <onThedesk> Dermot,  so what you suggest that we should do now?
[22:14] <biouser> Peddy I see... have you tried to see what aptitude or synaptic want to do just for fun, probably the same, but you might get lucky...
[22:14] <chupy> join #ubuntu-es
[22:14] <sebsebseb> shakesbier: well plenty of other IRC clients and browsers that can be used that are good
[22:14] <biouser> chupy who doesn't lol
[22:14] <Ryuki> hey I have a question
[22:14] <Peddy> chupy, I had the same problem, try running 'pulseaudio' in the terminal, and show me the output.
[22:14] <dartagnon1234> thank you
[22:14] <phorensic1> Peddy: Yah I have no ideas on the matter sorry
[22:15] <Peddy> thanks phorensic1
[22:15] <phorensic1> Peddy: never even tried running a +1 .. not enough wizard skills yet
[22:15] <Peddy> yeah, biouser, I might try Synaptic, and I know aptitude doesn't work.
[22:15] <Dermot> onThedesk: i would suggest loell works on full 64bit support, i think he uses 32bit so hes not pushed on making it support 64bit, i guess waiting is the only option
[22:15] <MarySue> Question: Will Ubuntu handle 4GB of RAM?
[22:15] <Brack10> can you use xrandr to set a resolution HIGHER than detected by X server???
[22:15] <sebsebseb> MarySue: of course
[22:15] <Pi3rrot> rdw200169, i just want tu bridge wireless and ethernet connexion to others computers
[22:15] <MarySue> you sure?
[22:15] <Brack10> this man page confuses the hell out of me
[22:15]  * Dermot personally the chatscreen on it annoys me, too much colours
[22:15] <biouser> Peddy it like how back in the day you would try to make a change and end up with no desktop manager or something :|
[22:16] <sebsebseb> MarySue: and it will handle it better than Windows in fact
[22:16] <MarySue> alright
[22:16] <shakesbier> sebsebseb: you are right but, there gotta be a way to make those programs use that charset by default
[22:16] <chupy> Peddy:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/110481/
[22:16] <bbeebboopp> MarySue, yes !!! it does here
[22:16] <biouser> MarySue ubuntu will handle 16 gigs ++
[22:16] <MarySue> then it is possible for me to install VMware and install XP and install Adobe Creative Suite 4 in XP then.
[22:16] <dennda> MarySue: The 64 bit version will natively. 32bit only with PAE
[22:16] <sebsebseb> MarySue:   I guess your new to Ubuntu,  and maybe computers.  and don't know much about RAM?
[22:16] <biouser> MarySue sounds plausible
[22:17] <MarySue> I'm not new to Ubuntu, just making sure it can handle more RAM
[22:17] <__kevin__> i have an issue with adobe flash plugin for firefox -- I installed the latest plugin and I still cannot view flash objects -- any advice?
[22:17] <sebsebseb> MrySue:  do you understand there technical  talk?  64bit  32bit etc
[22:17] <MarySue> Yes
[22:17] <sebsebseb> MarySue: ok :)
[22:17] <rdw200169> Pi3rrot, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkConnectionBridge
[22:17] <phorensic1> sebsebseb: She knows more thann you are giving her credit for
[22:17] <biouser> sebsebseb could you be a little more patronizing
[22:17] <Peddy> biouser, lol, the first time it happened, jockey (hardware drivers) remove those packages without telling me, and I spent an hour installing different video drivers, then when I tried 'startx' it said '/usr/bin/X/x not found' or something similar :P
[22:17] <sebsebseb> MarySue:  sorry being a bit patraonizing here or something.  didn't mean to, but  it came out
[22:18] <MarySue> Hm... ok. Then I will figure out which videocard Ubuntu will support and also, Windows.
[22:18] <chupy> Peddy http://paste.ubuntu.com/110481/ XD sorry for bothering
[22:18] <MarySue> It's alright.
[22:18] <onThedesk> So does any one know how to install Gyachi 32bit on 64bit architecture machine and get voice chat working?
[22:18] <Peddy> chupy, try sudo chown chupy .pulse-cookie
[22:18] <Dermot> better to ask then leave them there baffled if they didn't understand
[22:18] <phorensic1> MarySue: I suggest nvidia =-p
[22:18] <Orphis> Hello
[22:18] <MarySue> I know.
[22:18] <shakesbier> i still need help with that charset :(
[22:18] <MarySue> ok, which videocard, phorensic1?
[22:18] <biouser> chupy you could try $killall pulseaudio; pulseaudio -start
[22:18] <sebsebseb> phorensic1:  Nivida used to be great, but  later cards have issues with the new xorg in  Intrepid Ibex.  also they don't do open source drivers, like ATI do :)
[22:19] <biouser> MarySue I'm not a big fan of my ATI
[22:19] <sebsebseb> MarySue:  Nividia don't suppourt xorg properly anymore
[22:19] <MarySue> it's alright
[22:19] <Dermot> my nvidia card works fine on intrepid
[22:19] <Orphis> I'm using latest Ubuntu and I'm trying to make autofs work with my samba shares, I've followed the instructions of many tutorials and I think I've grasped the concept but nothing is working at all
[22:19] <sebsebseb> Dermost: as does mine, but not all will
[22:19] <Izinucs> MarySue: agp or pci.. the 6000 series of nvidia have been pretty bullet proof and should be a great value right now.
[22:19] <Starhero> Yeah and performace on even windows computers for Nvidia is degrading with later cards
[22:19] <MarySue> ok which one? I have liek 3 PCI and PCIExpress x16 and x1
[22:19] <Dermot> yeah can be picky
[22:19] <Starhero> ati is starting to come back (should say AMD)
[22:20] <phorensic1> I have the 8800GT and have had no issues MarySue, and sebsebseb isn't the nv driver opensource?? Poo on ATI ... I hope AMD is straightening them out
[22:20] <chupy> Peddy no proces eliminated... Falled to pares command line
[22:20] <Dermot> mine is pciexpress x16
[22:20] <sebsebseb> phorensic1:  well the more open source drivers the better?  regarldess of what they are actsaully for?
[22:20] <Starhero> I have an issue ither with the xserver or the 7700 go card
[22:20] <Dermot> geforce 9600
[22:20] <biouser> anyone got a favored way of normalizing audio in either a ogv or flv video file?
[22:20] <Orphis> I can use the script /etc/auto.smb myhostname to output the shares but it's still not really working...
[22:20] <Starhero> For some reason I have an really annoying flash that happens periodicly
[22:20] <Peddy> chupy, try 'sudo killall pulseaudio', then 'sudo alsa force-reload', then 'pulseaudio'.
[22:20] <Dermot> or was it 9500 , one of them
[22:21] <Starhero> it lasts milliseconds
[22:21] <Izinucs> MarySue: you pic.. depends on how the card is made..  8000 series cards are newer and good but depending on the chipset of your motherboard you might experience slow screen writes.. like me.. nvidia 8200 chipset and video card and it's much slower than my old p4 motherboard and an agp 6600gt card.
[22:21] <biouser> Peddy shouldn't need sudo? PA is per session or something?
[22:21] <Starhero> it is like a refresh of the xserver
[22:21] <MarySue> I only see geforce 9600 GT
[22:21] <Dermot> yes
[22:22] <MarySue> o then
[22:22] <Peddy> biouser, for which command? chown?
[22:22] <MarySue> I will get it
[22:22] <Dermot> intel core 2 quad q6600
[22:22] <MarySue> mine's only intel core duo
[22:22] <biouser> Peddy killall pulseaudio
[22:22] <biouser> no need for sudo
[22:22] <Dermot> sudo -s would be session is it now
[22:22] <Peddy> biouser, ok :P
[22:22] <Dermot> not*
[22:23] <dartagnon1234> jataji and ubottu: screen looks mighty powerful, thanks for the tips
[22:23] <shakesbier> well, i just repeat my question: "i could need some help with xchat, because i dont find a way to make it use iso-8859 for western characters set, firefox does not use it automatically neither :("
[22:23] <Peddy> chupy, still the same?
[22:23] <chupy> mmmmm its loading pulseaudio command
[22:23] <biouser> shakesbier can you right click and use SCIM or something
[22:24] <Peddy> chupy, could you pastebin /etc/pulse/default.pa please?
[22:24] <Steve132> I want to compile a stupidly simple c program using the unix posix standard
[22:24] <shakesbier> biouser: rightclick where
[22:24] <biouser> shakesbier in the input
[22:24] <chupy> Pedy ok....
[22:24] <Orphis> How can I make automount to be more verbose on the errors ? I only get a "failed to mount /smb/myhost" error
[22:24] <Steve132> but "gcc simple.c" returns the link error "-lunistd not found"
[22:24] <biouser> shakesbier not sure about what you are asking just something that came to mind
[22:24] <Steve132> and I'm kind of like...what?  the library for the posix standard cannot link?  wtf?
[22:25] <Steve132> anyone else have this problem?
[22:25] <Dermot> right click -> input methods?
[22:25] <Steve132> nvmd
[22:25] <Steve132> fixed it
[22:25] <Steve132> I'm a retard
[22:25] <shakesbier> biouser: the problem is that i see strange characters for german ä,ö,ü,ß
[22:25] <biouser> Dermot right, then you can write in Thai, you might need to get some plugins though
[22:26] <chupy> Peddy http://paste.ubuntu.com/110488/
[22:26] <swegner> Hi all.  I am trying to get nullmailer set up.  But when it tries to send mail in the queue, it prints the following error to mail.log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/110489/  Anybody know why it might do that?
[22:26] <grkblood13> hey guys, im having some trouble setting up my virtual hosts. ive been in the apache room and everything on the apache side seems to be correct. does any1 have any experience here setting up virtual hosts in ubuntu?

[22:26] <d0netsFN> hey my radar map for the weather applet in avant doesnt work , any ideas?
[22:26] <Dermot> Yeah, i guess he would, thankfully i don't write in chicken scratch, so not sure of any plugin
[22:27] <biouser> shakesbier synaptic: firefox german yields a lot of results but I have no experience with that :|

[22:28] <biouser> chupy and what version of ubuntu are you using?
[22:28] <phorensic1> Anyone seen the linux magazine that talks about some system that can allow something like up to 32 monitors??
[22:28] <chupy> Peddy biouser 8.10
[22:28] <biouser> __kevin__ $sudo su   ?
[22:28] <lazy1> How do I know who holds /dev/dsp if "fuser" don't show anything?

[22:30] <daplumpkin> PM plz
[22:30] <Peddy> chupy, you can change it back if it fails.
[22:30] <chupy> do i change the lines?
[22:30] <[tiggrBot]> anyone here?
[22:30] <Peddy> chupy, how do you mean?
[22:30] <chupy> Peddy that before changing the lines o after
[22:31] <biouser> man pulseaudio |grep '\-k'
[22:31] <biouser>        -k  --kill
[22:31] <Peddy> chupy, after
[22:31] <linuxman410> daplumpkin what do you need
[22:31] <Peddy> chupy, make sure to set sound to autodetect, as well.
[22:32] <biouser> sound is voodoo right now but I have high hopes for jaunty
[22:32] <Dermot> anybody use monodevelop?
