[15:05] <arno-t> hi all any opensearch gurus around? I'd like to make an opensearch xml file for http://tolkeportalen.no. It's using POST. ideas?
[15:05] <Guest40584> look like all expert sleep dy
[15:05] <jd_wax> I'm trying to run JES.sh but nothing is happening
[15:05] <Guest40584> lol
[15:05] <sudobash> jd_wax how are trying to run it?
[15:05] <Guest40584> ./JES.sh
[15:05] <roger_padactor> www.testcp.com  which points to <IP_ADDRESS>   it loads the index of page.  but when i add index.php to it it loads fine
[15:05] <jb_in_nyc> how do I find out if I should be using FAT32 or NTFS?
[15:05] <willvdl> doing a minimal install, basically just using the alt CD, but the debootstrapper seems to give errors
[15:05] <sudobash> actually sh JES.sh
[15:06] <hlfshell> is there a graphical way to change multiple monitor settings?
[15:06] <jd_wax> by double clicking it, ubuntu asks how I want to run it, I click run in terminal, nothing happens
[15:06] <djhash> Guest40584: check out the "find" command. "man find"
[15:06] <Speedy> hlfshell,  you got ati or nvidia?
[15:06] <ThexLeopard> is koryo in?
[15:06] <sudobash> jd_wax open a terminal and cd to the dir
[15:06] <hlfshell> radeon so ati i think.
[15:06] <Koryo> ThexLeopard, Hello ^^
[15:06] <sudobash> and then type sh JES.sh
[15:06] <ThexLeopard> rofl you nearly killed the computer o;
[15:07] <sudobash> and make sure you use caps
[15:07] <ThexLeopard> i clicked the link and it restarted me
[15:07] <Speedy> hlfshell,  look in accessproes ati installs a gui there
[15:07] <Koryo> ya what?
[15:07] <Speedy> *accessories
[15:07] <ThexLeopard> i clicked the link and it restarted the computer
[15:07] <Koryo> send me the link
[15:07] <djhash> roger_padactor: did you restart apache after you added index.php to DirectoryIndex?
[15:07] <ThexLeopard> i dont remember it
[15:07] <hlfshell> Theres nothing there for something like that though Speedy - do yuo think theres a package i should install?
[15:07] <jd_wax> it says JES.sh 12: java: not found
[15:07] <Koryo> well i got it from the site lol, i didn't have a problem getting there!
[15:08] <franklin> about what time virtualbox support dirx
[15:08] <ThexLeopard> anyway i managed to run fixmbr in the end
[15:08] <roger_padactor> oooo maybe not ill try that!
[15:08] <ThexLeopard> so xp works again
[15:08] <sudobash> so you need to install java jd_wax cause your script is trying to use it
[15:08] <franklin> what time virtualbox support dirx
[15:08] <Speedy> hlfshell,  it installed itself when i installed the ati driver
[15:08] <sudobash> jre
[15:08] <ThexLeopard> im gonna get the grub super cd and hopefully configure grub myself
[15:08] <Koryo> cool ^^
[15:08] <jd_wax> right duh, thanks :P
[15:08] <hlfshell> then i guess i didnt get the ati driver then. odd.
[15:08] <jd_wax> cheers guys
[15:08] <roger_padactor> djhash,  good call that worked thanks
[15:08] <Speedy> did y9ou do it via the restricted drivers manager?
[15:08] <franklin> what time virtualbox support dirx
[15:08] <djhash> roger_padactor: no problem
[15:08] <bitplex> is there something like LTSP but uses the OS installed on the machine?
[15:09] <ThexLeopard> on a different note, how much do you know about nvidia cards?
[15:09] <hlfshell> i think so Speedy
[15:09] <hwilde> bitplex, u might get more response in the #ltsp channel
[15:09] <Guest40584> find link?
[15:09] <hlfshell> i wnet to Administration -> Hardware Drivers
[15:09] <geek_> bitplex: 'like' in what way?
[15:09] <hlfshell> and it says im using:
[15:09] <Koryo> ThexLeopard - there graphics cards xD
[15:09] <bitplex> hwilde: thanks
[15:09] <liamkmc> howdy
[15:09] <hlfshell> ATI accelerated graphics driver
[15:09] <liamkmc> howdy ya'll
[15:09] <franklin> what time virtualbox support dirx
[15:10] <ThexLeopard> i know rofl, but i was interested to find out what ram chips i have on my card
[15:10] <ThexLeopard> according to the data sheet
[15:10] <ThexLeopard> i should have 128 meg of ram on the card
[15:10] <ThexLeopard> but its running at 64
[15:10] <bitplex> i dont want each client to load the os from the server. i want it to boot an os from and disk and present the user with a network login screen. it then fetches the user data from the server to use for that session.
[15:10] <sudobash> change your bios settings
[15:10] <sudobash> ThexLeopard
[15:10] <ThexLeopard> to what?
[15:11] <sudobash> there should be a place to change allocation if it is on board nvidia card...
[15:11] <estunecle> !modeline
[15:11] <Next1> My computer restarts randomly I don't know why. What should I do?
[15:11] <sudobash> Nextl check for overheating
[15:11] <sudobash> maybe you need to clean your PC?
[15:11] <Speedy> Next1,  check the heat ?
[15:11] <ThexLeopard> i have a very old board, that might be the problem
[15:11] <Speedy> when mine did that it was because the cpu heatsink wasnt connected properly
[15:11] <sudobash> or update your BIOS firmware Nextl
[15:11] <Speedy> so the cpu was overheating
[15:11] <Speedy> i'd check the tempo before upgrading the bios
[15:12] <Speedy> *temp
[15:12] <ThexLeopard> hang on how do you update the bios firmware?
[15:12] <sudobash> mine did it from bios being out of date and not using Cool N Quiet
[15:12] <sudobash> correctly that is
[15:12] <sudobash> if you dont know how to do it check the other stuff first
[15:12] <ThexLeopard> so it wouldnt be because i have to run on AGP4 or anything?
[15:12] <sudobash> I have seen a CPU fry from heatsink mounted wrong
[15:13] <Speedy> sudobash, mine did fry
[15:13] <Speedy> after the 12th time it restarted
[15:13] <sudobash> I am running AGP8X
[15:13] <Speedy> it just fried
[15:13] <ThexLeopard> ill have a look in the bios
[15:13] <Speedy> it was hitting 92 degrees celcious within 30 secs of booting
[15:13] <sudobash> yeah it got super hot
[15:13] <Masterkiller> hey i have bluetooth hardware...and i used to be able to hcitool scan but now it instantly comes back with nothing found. anyone know where i might have edited a file to include a bluetooth id? i remember doing it awhile back but now i dont remember where
[15:13] <sudobash> damn
[15:13] <ThexLeopard> im sure i bought it as a 64 meg card
[15:13] <ThexLeopard> its just i have 4 2Mx16Bit chips
[15:13] <Speedy> then i realised the heatsink was mounted correctly haha
[15:13] <Speedy> cost me a whole new cpu
[15:13] <Speedy> stupid mistake, lessonm learned
[15:13] <Speedy> *lesson
[15:14] <sudobash> what kind of CPU?
[15:14] <Speedy> P4
[15:14] <ThexLeopard> alright ill go check now
[15:14] <FloodBot2> Speedy: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:14] <Next1> Speedy: No I haven't. It's usually about 30 minutes after I turn it on and  syslog says restart
[15:14] <Speedy> oh
[15:14] <willvdl> I'm building a "command-line install" from alternate CD but it won't install the base system. complains about various debootstrap errors. A standard install works fine. Any pointers as to what the problem might be?
[15:14] <Speedy> in that case you have  a software issue
[15:15] <oskude> Next1, are you probably on a notebook with battery ?
[15:15] <sudobash> check your power management settings Nextl
[15:16] <bitplex> geek_: any suggestinos
[15:16] <geek_> bitplex: what was the problem again?
[15:16] <gaintsura> is there a way to amplify/boost the signal of a built in mic in ubuntu?
[15:17] <sudobash> so some CPU's have a feature in Power Management that will allow you to optimize for speed instead of power saving and it actually changed core voltage and multiplier i guess cause it went from 1100 Mhz to 2200Mhz each core...
[15:18] <gaintsura> sudobash: yes, great programs, but can cause over heating
[15:18] <bitplex> geek_: im trying to find a solution similar to ltsp, however instead of fetching the os from the server, it boot the os from disk and only uses the server to fetch the users desktop and data.
[15:18] <sudobash> didnt even notice it was on until AMDPWRMON showed 1100 mhz i was like what?
[15:18] <geek_> ahh
[15:18] <gaintsura> sudobash: what did you use in ubuntu, I found one for windows for AMD, but not for ubuntu yet
[15:18] <sudobash> yeah it can gaintsura
[15:19] <geek_> bitplex: sounds like a job for NFS hosted home directories
[15:19] <sudobash> on amd's site they have the AMD Power Monitor for linux you install from tgz
[15:19] <sudobash> and it works great
[15:19] <adimov> what can i do in synaptic to install flash plug-in
[15:19] <gaintsura> ah, right on, must have missed it
[15:19] <sudobash> shows you voltaga mhz power saving and cpu usage
[15:19] <ThexLeopard> right sudobash i set up the aperture size
[15:19] <ThexLeopard> just in case
[15:19] <ThexLeopard> if i set the aperture to too big
[15:19] <geek_> bitplex: it should be fairly well documented, but never done it myself ;p
[15:19] <ThexLeopard> will it destroy anything?
[15:19] <oskude> !flash
[15:20] <gaintsura> sudobash:  I found a program that you could change the stepping and such in windows, thats what I was wondering
[15:20] <sudobash> ThexLeopard if you have an Nvidia card does it not have a post screen that displays Card Info?
[15:20] <adimov> was there but no help
[15:20] <sudobash> nope.... not yet but I am sure they exists
[15:20] <testmycode019> hello
[15:20] <ThexLeopard> a post screen? you mean after the first one where you can go into setup?
[15:21] <sudobash> must be done as Admin though I'm sure
[15:21] <sudobash> or System
[15:21] <gaintsura> naturally
[15:21] <sudobash> no before that
[15:21] <sudobash> you should see a screen that tell you info on card and how much ram... For Nvidia mainly....
[15:21] <Theaxiom> How do I add/remove places from my Places menu?
[15:21] <markowen> yo
[15:21] <clp>  I installed postgresql8.3, but I don't know the password of the user 'postgres'.  I downloaded a bunch of images from deviantart (as .jpg format), but Ubuntu says its mimetype is text/plain. for this reason, i can't double click it to view it, or set it as a desktop image. to view it i need to eog it from the command line, but what's the point of that?
[15:22] <sudobash> The first screen that the pc displays after it passes POST
[15:22] <sudobash> what is it?
[15:23] <ThexLeopard> hang on let me have a look
[15:23] <ThexLeopard> and also
[15:23] <hyphenated> sudobash: grub, the boot loader?
[15:23] <sudobash> what about it?
[15:23] <ThexLeopard> oh nevermind
[15:23] <hyphenated> the first screen after POST
[15:24] <adimov> so installing flash
[15:24] <sudobash> no if you are on an Nvidia Graphics Card it should be info on your card at the top and then ram check/CMOS entry, and then grub
[15:24] <sudobash> and thats not counting cdrom / usb boot check
[15:25] <fsufitch> my question simplified: how to i force ubuntu to give me image/jpeg mimetype for images that it now says are text/plain ?
[15:25] <Guest96896> hi
[15:26] <sudobash> adimov what about it? it can be done a few ways but the only one that ever worked for me 100% is the script installer
[15:27] <sudobash> it will install for opera/ firefox / knoq and some others
[15:27] <franklin> what time virtualbox support dirx
[15:27] <wols> fsufitch: mimetype where?
[15:27] <fsufitch> okay, my problem is: apparently all the images i own suddenly decided to be text/plain. the only ones that actually work properly are PNGs, since i guess ubuntu recognises them as images
[15:27] <wols> fsufitch: #vbox?
[15:27] <fsufitch> mimetype as reported by nautilus when i right click the file with properties
[15:27] <franklin> yes
[15:27] <adimov> sudobash tell me how
[15:27] <fsufitch> wols: wat do u mean vbox?
[15:28] <nDuff> fsufitch, go ask in that channel
[15:28] <joaopinto> !flash | adimov
[15:28] <oskude> franklin, maybe you should as the creators of virtualbox
[15:28] <oskude> *ask
[15:28] <fsufitch> nDuff: why? i'm not running in a virtual box...
[15:28] <franklin> i want go dirx in vbox on the winxp
[15:28] <wols> franklin: #vbox ?
[15:28] <wols> fsufitch: wrong nick
[15:28] <nDuff> fsufitch, oh, I thought you asked when vbox would support DirectX
[15:28] <fsufitch> wols: :) it's okay
[15:28] <adimov> i was there ubottu but no use (for me)
[15:29] <snarkster> is there a config file for synaptic?
[15:29] <wols> !tell adimov about errors
[15:29] <oskude> franklin, and maybe you have better luck with http://www.cedega.com/
[15:29] <nDuff> franklin, ask in #vbox
[15:29] <wols> and ubottu is a bot, no use aswering it
[15:29] <franklin> thx
[15:29] <adimov> to many up and downs but nothing clear
[15:29] <adimov> where ubottu
[15:30] <sudobash> adimov: http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash
[15:30]  * nDuff suppresses his urge to jump on people for using text-message shorthand in IRC
[15:30] <sudobash> and download the tar.gz
[15:30] <joaopinto> adimov, from the package manager install flashplugin-nonfree
[15:30] <ThexLeopard> right theres no screen that tells me about the nvidia card
[15:30] <sudobash> some times it doesn't work but it is worth a try first
[15:30] <ThexLeopard> the only information page i get is on the x server settings
[15:31] <joaopinto> sudobash, do not instruct him to use an external script, the proper way to install flash on Ubuntu is using the repository!
[15:31] <ThexLeopard> telling me its a 64meg card
[15:31] <wols> ThexLeopard: lspci -nn
[15:31] <pauljw> adimov: the instructions are pretty clear on that site, add the multiverse repo ; reload; install flashplugin-nonfree
[15:32] <sudobash> well I know that script works 100% of the time
[15:32] <joaopinto> sudobash, so does the repository, and that is the recommended procedure
[15:32] <ThexLeopard> ok i have a geforce fx5200 card on AGP4
[15:32] <adimov> joaopinto u mean that synaptic stuff
[15:32] <ThexLeopard> i already knew that o;
[15:32] <ThexLeopard> i want to know how much memory is on it
[15:32] <bazhang> sudobash, always better to use the repos first.
[15:33] <wols> ThexLeopard: yes but now we know what drivers you can uuse
[15:33] <joaopinto> adimov, erm, yes, to install software on ubuntu you use Synaptic
[15:33] <ThexLeopard> i know what drivers i need
[15:33] <ThexLeopard> i dont know how much memory there is on the card though
[15:33] <wols> ThexLeopard: did you use the nvidia driver or the nv one?
[15:33] <wols> ThexLeopard: doesn't matter
[15:33] <sudobash> the FX 5200 comes in 128 and 256 mb version i believe
[15:33] <ThexLeopard> it does
[15:33] <sudobash> I have owned 2
[15:33] <sudobash> one of each
[15:33] <ThexLeopard> so why is it when i bought mine i thought it was 64 >.<
[15:34] <ThexLeopard> so i need nv drivers?
[15:34] <adimov> adobe site - tar.gz, rpm, yum - what shall i do with them?
[15:34] <sudobash> yeah use the restricted drivers manager
[15:34] <wols> adimov: nothing since you're not supposed to even look at them
[15:34] <ThexLeopard> it says i have the nvidia corp NV34 GeForce FX5200
[15:35] <sudobash>  nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200]
[15:35] <ThexLeopard> yeah
[15:35] <sudobash> i am on the 256 mb version now
[15:35] <Meeso> how do I install Sun Java 3D?
[15:35] <Meeso> I need it for school
[15:35] <ThexLeopard> so i need to uninstall the drivers i have now and install NV drivers instead?
[15:35] <sudobash> its a good card and it will last you as long as you surge protect everything going IN to it....
[15:36] <pauljw> adimov: if you don't understand which of those files to use, get out of there and go back to synaptic and follow the instructions i and others have given you to install from the repositories.  you'll be in way over your head otherwise.
[15:36] <adimov> now i am on synaptic window what shell i do, there is a lot of stuff, how can i find flash
[15:36] <Pici> adimov: the package name is flashplugin-nonfree
[15:36] <sudobash> my 128 version FX 5200 was fried by an Ionic Charge
[15:37] <ThexLeopard> ive had mine years anyway
[15:37] <sudobash> over COAX through a TV over Svideo to Video Card... got the TV also
[15:37] <Meeso> how do I install Sun Java 3D?
[15:37] <ThexLeopard> but i need it to last me sort of two more
[15:37] <ThexLeopard> before i buy a new pc
[15:37] <oskude> Meeso, whats Java 3D ?
[15:37] <sudobash> I had that card for about 4 years before that happened
[15:37] <ThexLeopard> had it since like 2001 my computer
[15:37] <Meeso> IDK
[15:37] <Meeso> I need it for school though
[15:37] <ThexLeopard> upgraded virtually every component
[15:37] <Meeso> I tried installing with WINE
[15:38] <ThexLeopard> aside from fitting a new motherboard
[15:38] <Meeso> it still wont recognise it
[15:38] <wols> oskude: a 3D api to be used from java
[15:38] <oskude> Meeso, well, what ever it is, sounds like a question for sun...
[15:38] <sudobash> thats using old SD-RAM of DDR1?
[15:38] <wols> Meeso: you must install it to your system Java
[15:38] <Meeso> how?
[15:38] <mrnick> anybody knows how to install yaacs on ubuntu hardy?
[15:38] <sudobash> PC133
[15:38] <ThexLeopard> yeah its PC133
[15:38] <ThexLeopard> rofl
[15:38] <sudobash> lol
[15:38] <wols> Meeso: https://java3d.dev.java.net/binary-builds.html
[15:39] <sudobash> I need to upgrade this DDR2 to 800 Mhz instead of 667
[15:39] <wols> sudobash: what is your FSB?
[15:39] <ThexLeopard> ive missed all the new motherboard standards and everything
[15:39] <adimov> in syn i have only embedded stuff and than gnome desktop stuff, where is flashplugin-nonfree?
[15:39] <sudobash> but i got a 1GB stick for free
[15:39] <elTigre> hi
[15:39] <Meeso> j3d-1_5_2-linux-amd64.zip
[15:39] <Meeso> j3d-1_5_2-linux-i586.zip   ? which?
[15:39] <sudobash> I have a BioStar K8M800 so 800 mhz
[15:39] <sudobash> i believe
[15:39] <ThexLeopard> everyones using sata now aswell while i potter along with my IDE slots
[15:40] <elTigre> I have a problem with SDL... SDL windows keep open after closing the games, in a kind of hang state. have to kill -9 the
[15:40] <elTigre> m
[15:40] <sudobash> its a POS MB that still has AGP8X instead of PCI-E but has AM2 Socket X2
[15:40] <elTigre> But I don't even know what terms to google for
[15:40] <wols> sudobash: BS
[15:40] <pauljw> adimov: did you enable the multiverse repository in synaptic and reload as the link instructed you?
[15:40] <sudobash> seriously....
[15:40] <oskude> Meeso, if youre running a 64bit system you probably need the -amd64.zip, otherwise the -i586.zip
[15:40] <wols> sudobash: seriously, no
[15:40] <sudobash> AGP8X with AM2 Socket
[15:40] <Meeso> ok
[15:41] <adimov> no, how?
[15:41] <sudobash> my FSB is 233 MHZ
[15:42] <sudobash> sorry i was talking about my RAM
[15:42] <sudobash> no 232
[15:42] <bazhang> !ot
[15:42] <bazhang> let us take chat to #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:43] <junglejim> does anyone here know anything about hooking your computer up to the TV?\
[15:43] <cuil> i cannot  send message use MSN

[15:44] <AJC_Z0> When I insert a music CD, the window pops up asking if I want to play it with Rhythmbox, do nothing, etc. How do I configure this to play my CD in another app, specifically Audacious?
[15:44] <sudobash> yeah it can be done with VGA DVI SVIDEO
[15:44] <junglejim> i need an extra SVIDEO wire?
[15:44] <cuil> who can tell me how to do            use  aMSN  on ubuntu
[15:44] <oskude> !msn
[15:44] <sudobash> junglejim you need to adjust your resolution on the TV-Screen which means it might not even be enabled yet....
[15:45] <junglejim> sudobash: I have a DVI-I adapter connected to a VGA cable which is connected to my laptop
[15:45] <sroecker> junglejim, did you try gnome-display-properties
[15:45] <pauljw> adimov: follow these instructions  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu#Adding%20the%20Universe%20and%20Multiverse%20Repositories
[15:45] <junglejim> sroecker: havent tried that yet
[15:45] <AJC_Z0> junglejim: The TV only understand certain modes and signals. Try setting the mode to a recognised TV resolution and refresh rate
[15:45] <sudobash> what kind of video chipset are you on do you know?
[15:45] <sroecker> junglejim, try a lower resolution
[15:45] <Gerrit> Hi, I would like to disable postfix for a while because I will temporarily not have access to my MTA. All outgoing e-mail should be postponed until I have access again. Meanwhile, I don't want error messages and bounced e-mails. How can I do this without losing my configuration?
[15:45] <junglejim> when I go to the PC channel on my TV is works
[15:45] <junglejim> but not the HD channel
[15:45] <junglejim> PC channel doesnt output sound though
[15:45] <AJC_Z0> junglejim: though it may be complicated by the VGA-DVI. I don't know
[15:45] <junglejim> sroecker: i tried all resolutions my comp supports
[15:46] <junglejim> AJC_Z0: tried all refresh rates too
[15:46] <AJC_Z0> junglejim: HD signal is very different from N/ATSC
[15:46] <Gerrit> in the services, but I forgot where that is
[15:46] <junglejim> is there any way to get the PC channel to output sound?
[15:46] <junglejim> Videos play fine on the PC channel
[15:46] <reikalusikka> how can I see my computers specs
[15:47] <junglejim> but theres no sound
[15:47] <Meeso> where do fonts go?
[15:47] <reikalusikka> 1 command if possible
[15:47] <sroecker> junglejim, pc channel is just the video from dvi
[15:47] <reikalusikka> any1?
[15:47] <reikalusikka> hwconfig?
[15:47] <Meeso> where do fonts go?
[15:47] <junglejim> sroecker: the channels on my TV are "EXT 1, AV, PC, HD"
[15:47] <junglejim> which one should I be using?
[15:48] <reikalusikka> how to see my computer's configuration
[15:48] <junglejim> considering I have a wire hooked up to a DVI-I socket
[15:48] <reikalusikka> hardware
[15:48] <Gerrit> hmm, doesn't work
[15:48] <AJC_Z0> junglejim: Those would be inputs rather than channels
[15:48] <Gerrit> never mind
[15:48] <oskude> Meeso, you mean you want to install your own fonts ? i think you can copy them to ~/.fonts and restart X
[15:48] <sroecker> junglejim, if you are connecting it with dvi-i you need to use pc
[15:48] <junglejim> AJC_Z0: yea inputs sorry
[15:48] <junglejim> sroecker: ah so it does work then
[15:49] <junglejim> sroecker: but it outputs sound from the normal channels not the laptop
[15:49] <AJC_Z0> If your TV has a "PC" input and it works, then why do you care about HD TV? You can probably display a higher resolution picture than HD
[15:49] <AJC_Z0> Sound doesn't come from a VGA port
[15:49] <junglejim> AJC_Z0: it wont play the sound from the laptop
[15:49] <junglejim> only pictures
[15:49] <AJC_Z0> Right. If you want sound, then you need to hook up the sound card
[15:49] <junglejim> AJC_Z0: damn do I need another wire?
[15:50] <sudobash> haha
[15:50] <AJC_Z0> The fact that HDMI can carry sound as well as video is incidental
[15:50] <sudobash> i was waiting on someone to say something
[15:50] <AJC_Z0> junglejim: Yes, you need an audio calbe from the sound card to whatever you use for audio - TV, receiver, gramophone, ...
[15:50] <Meeso> what is 'X'?
[15:51] <Meeso> how do I restart it?
[15:51] <junglejim> damn I didn't know it was so complicated
[15:51] <junglejim> ah well at least I have the video working
[15:51] <junglejim> thanks for the help
[15:51] <AJC_Z0> junglejim: Pictures and noises.   It will log you completely out, so save your changes and close your apps first.
[15:51] <sudobash> get a sound system for your laptop
[15:51] <reikalusikka> what is the web page where I can paste 500 lines of stuff
[15:51] <sudobash> 30 bucks
[15:52] <oskude> Meeso, http://www.x.org "the thing you see" in "linux" press ctrl+alt+backspace to restart it, or in console: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[15:52] <zSoilworker> reikalusikka:  pastebin.ubuntu.com
[15:52] <sudobash> pastebin
[15:52] <reikalusikka> thanks guys

[15:54] <erUSUL> ubuntu_: you may want to try you native language channel first ...
[15:54] <erUSUL> ubuntu_: where are you from?
[15:54] <ubuntu_> i tryed but no one answered
[15:54] <ubuntu_> greece
[15:55] <erUSUL> ubuntu_: :|. Go ahead describe the problem
[15:55] <ubuntu_> after installation i made restard
[15:55] <ubuntu_> and then i can log ubuntu
[15:56] <ubuntu_> black screen and a message that says something like 'you have to choose a proper boot disk'
[15:57] <erUSUL> ubuntu_: you installed grub durng ubuntu instalation? on the mbr?
[15:57] <alex_> exeter
[15:57] <ubuntu_> hmm im newby in linux so i dont know what you mean ;/
[15:58] <ubuntu_> downloaded ubuntu 8,4 and installex
[15:58] <ubuntu_> installed
[15:58] <IdleOne> ubuntu_: you let the installer do the partitioning ?
[15:58] <zSoilworker> Goodbye all.
[15:58] <oskude> ubuntu_, at the end of installation it asked you if you want to install GRUB to the Master Boot Record, did you say yes there ?
[15:59] <sudobash> he needs Super Grub Disk maybe
[15:59] <ubuntu_> no it didnt asked
[15:59] <caexo> once again i figured my question out before i asked... cya
[16:00] <the[V]oid> hi, can someone tell me how "safe" it is to upgrade from ubuntu 7.10 to 8.04? will all the drivers (even the propritary) still work and my configurations (like that of X.org) be kept?
[16:01] <ubuntu_> i just choosed to use my disk and dont make partitions
[16:01] <oskude> !upgrade
[16:01] <FreddyGonzo> the[V]oid: Depends on your hardware. I call this LTS 'Buggy Heron'
[16:01] <sudobash> I had some problem upgrading when 8.04 first came out... but there have been a lot of updates and such
[16:01] <bazhang> ubuntu_, you installed from inside windows?
[16:01] <oskude> ubuntu_, dont make partitions ? where did it install it then ?
[16:01] <ubuntu_> no from ubuntu cd
[16:01] <erUSUL> the[V]oid: it was safe for me all the times i upgraded ubuntu (many from warty beta)
[16:02] <ubuntu_> in my disk
[16:02] <Myrtti> !away > zSoilWORKING
[16:02] <bazhang> sounds like wubi
[16:02] <erUSUL> the[V]oid: prop. drivers? depends on how you installed them
[16:02] <oskude> ubuntu_, did you boot from the CD or did you "start" the cd in ms-windows ?
[16:03] <ubuntu_> boot from cd and then install ubuntu
[16:03] <IdleOne> the[V]oid: backup! then upgrade
[16:03] <zSoilWORKING> Myrtti: Saying goodbye is not excessive scrolling :P
[16:03] <oskude> ubuntu_, hmm
[16:03] <erUSUL> the[V]oid: conf files will be kept merged or replaced depending on what you want. You will be asked during upgrade for most of them
[16:03] <Myrtti> zSoilWORKING: nick change is totally needless too
[16:04] <the[V]oid> well I've just read on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes#From%207.10%20or%206.06%20LTS%20to%208.04%20LTS that my system will get corrupted if I upgrade
[16:04] <ubuntu_> i made the installation 2nd time but i have the same prob
[16:04] <bazhang> ubuntu_, did you do the integrity check on the cd after md5 the iso?
[16:04] <PatMac_> I just installed Ubuntu 8.04 on Parallels 3 on Mac OS X Leopard, and It appears like I followed the right documentation to get Parallels Tools to work. But after it restarts, I see no changes at all. Am I missing something?
[16:05] <Thunderbolt> hi
[16:05] <IdleOne> !hi | Thunderbolt
[16:05] <ubuntu_> you confused me :)
[16:05] <Thunderbolt> 有人没
[16:05] <bazhang> ubuntu_, this is already installed and cannot boot? did you get a disk not found error or a grub error
[16:05] <IdleOne> !cn

[16:06] <bazhang> Thunderbolt, /j #ubuntu-cn

[16:07] <ThexLeopard> sudobash
[16:07] <sudobash> yes?
[16:07] <tesseracter> anyone had problems staying connected to a wireless network when using transmission? as soon as i turn on transmission, wireless stops.
[16:07] <oskude> ubuntu_, it sounds like theres no GRUB in the MBR for the BIOS to find...
[16:07] <ThexLeopard> what were them other things to check aside from bios settings?
[16:08] <ubuntu_> what can i do?
[16:08] <sudobash> cleanliness of the Heat sink behind the Fan on top of CPU....
[16:08] <oskude> !grub
[16:08] <sudobash> to make sure it isn't overheating
[16:08] <ThexLeopard> cpu temp is 52 degrees
[16:08] <IdleOne> !fixgrub
[16:09] <ThexLeopard> nothing wrong with that
[16:09] <sudobash> are you on a laptop or desktop?
[16:09] <Adakos> This is an odd question. but how can I connect to a computer that is behind a firewall via ssh? I can SSH -FROM- that machine, but can't SSH -TO- that machine, is there a reverse tunnel switch  for ssh ?
[16:09] <ThexLeopard> desktop
[16:09] <sudobash> desktop right?
[16:09] <Myrtti> Adakos: yes there is
[16:09] <medicine> .
[16:09] <ThexLeopard> i changed the graphics card aperture to 128mb
[16:09] <PriceChild> Adakos: http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_SSH_Reverse_Tunnel
[16:10] <ThexLeopard> but whatever i do, the software insists i only have 64 meg

[16:10] <heroxbd> Hello. I've met with a wired problem. When I am using Ubuntu 8.04 with linux 2.6.24, my ethernet adapter was running very good. But just after I download a 2.6.26 kernel from intrepid and installed it, the 2.6.24 kernel does not function with my ethernet.
[16:10] <ThexLeopard> firmware should be up to date
[16:10] <ThexLeopard> in the bios
[16:11] <bazhang> heroxbd, #ubuntu+1
[16:11] <sudobash> well if there isn't much to go on in the logs I would just reset the bios settings to default and set your aperture again...
[16:11] <ThexLeopard> since bios update is enabled
[16:11] <heroxbd> bazhang: You mean I am off the topic of this channel?
[16:11] <ThexLeopard> ok ill try that
[16:11] <wols> heroxbd: #ubuntu+1
[16:11] <ThexLeopard> if it doesnt work
[16:11] <sudobash> no that just means it can be updated not automatically
[16:11] <ThexLeopard> ill have to solder new chips on after all
[16:11] <wols> heroxbd: yes
[16:12] <ThexLeopard> youve stopped making sense rofl
[16:12] <ThexLeopard> i say ill have to
[16:12] <bazhang> !away > killown|away
[16:12] <ThexLeopard> itll probably be my dad that does it
[16:12] <sudobash> the update enabled does not automatically update firmware of MB
[16:12] <sudobash> it just means it be updated vi boot or maybe from windows
[16:13] <sudobash> In System Programmable is what that means
[16:13] <ThexLeopard> ok so if i go to bios and reset everything
[16:13] <ThexLeopard> how do i make sure the bios is updated?
[16:13] <roxy2> hello :)
[16:13] <sudobash> it might work but if it does not work that update firmware
[16:13] <Thunderbolt> ??
[16:14] <sudobash> go to the MB manufacturer site and check for downloaded firmware
[16:14] <ThexLeopard> ok
[16:14] <bazhang> !cn | Thunderbolt
[16:14] <sudobash> and check the dates and version number against yours in bios
[16:14] <ThexLeopard> who was my motherboard manufactured by now rofl
[16:14] <ThexLeopard> i think its asus
[16:14] <wols> I doubt the mobo maker still supports your old hardware :)
[16:14] <wols> the bios ident string can tell you
[16:14] <ThexLeopard> its either asus or asrock
[16:15] <Thunderbolt> This xchat is very diffcult
[16:15] <ThexLeopard> and i dont think its asrock
[16:15] <sudobash> but there should still be a more up to date firmware if his has never been updated
[16:15] <heroxbd> I think my problem is not a intrepid one. I installed a 2.6.26 kernel and then my 8.04 stock 2.6.24 stop to function with my ethernet driver.
[16:15] <wols> heroxbd: how did you install that kernel exactly?
[16:15] <roxy2> hello
[16:15] <pc22> how do i access xp mydocs on ubuntu live?
[16:15] <bazhang> heroxbd, you are using the intrepid kernel so it is #ubuntu+1
[16:15] <pc22> i can access other folders but not mydocs
[16:16] <heroxbd> wols: I wanted the isatap (and ipv6 tunnel)support.
[16:16] <bazhang> heroxbd, offtopic here.
[16:16] <ThexLeopard> does anyone know a command for finding out the motherboard data on dos
[16:16] <wols> heroxbd: that didn't answer my question
[16:16] <ThexLeopard> saves me restarting
[16:16] <wols> ThexLeopard: we only support ubuntu
[16:17] <ThexLeopard> ok rofl
[16:17] <ThexLeopard> give me the terminal command (:
[16:17] <Pici> ThexLeopard: Try ##windows
[16:17] <heroxbd> bazhang: no. I don't want to try out 2.6.26. I only want to know why my stock kernel stops functioning.
[16:17] <wols> heroxbd: answer my question then
[16:18] <ThexLeopard> anyone know the command for finding out motherboard data on ubuntu?
[16:19] <Pici> ThexLeopard: sudo lshw   might give you that info
[16:19] <sudobash> lspci will list devices connected
[16:19] <ThexLeopard> ok
[16:19] <ThexLeopard> now to restart
[16:20] <heroxbd> wols: Actually. My pure 8.04 is running well. Then I wanted the isatap ipv6 support. So I went and fetched a 2.6.26 kernel and the ipv6 support is ok. Then I wonder if the 2.6.24 can do with isatap (it is supposed to be in the kernel since 2.6.25). So I rebooted into the 2.6.24 kernel, and found the ethernet stops functioning.
[16:21] <heroxbd> wols: however I plug on and off the wire, the 2.6.24 system says "eth0 Link not ready."
[16:21] <jassim> back
[16:21] <heroxbd> wols: But I can't find any clue how my operations effected the old, pure 8.04 system.
[16:24] <bazhang> heroxbd, installing or using intrepid kernel or otherwise is offtopic here. Please move to that channel.
[16:24] <bullium> running 8.04 and everytime I open new application, click a link on the net that opens a new window they are ALL minimized by default. Any idea how to fix this?
[16:25] <ThexLeopard> 64 meg
[16:25] <Speedo_> Hi all.
[16:25] <heroxbd> bazhang: But what went wrong is my hardy system, not intrepid.
[16:25] <jimmmym> Hi guys,
[16:26] <snarkster> what do you use to read cbr files?
[16:26] <bazhang> heroxbd, not here. using intrepid--->#ubuntu+1.
[16:26] <Pici> heroxbd: We do not support using custom kernels in Ubuntu Hardy, you might be able to get support in #ubuntu+1
[16:26] <ThexLeopard> rofl my latest bios is from 2003
[16:26] <heroxbd> OK. guys. I am going to uninstall the 2.6.26 kernel and come back and ask.
[16:26] <infz> could someone help me with a initramfs problem. I need to put lvm support in it but i can't get it working
[16:28] <ThexLeopard> right sudobash, i have an awd file
[16:29] <ThexLeopard> where does it need to be?
[16:29] <bazhang> snarkster, comix works well here
[16:29] <ThexLeopard> and do i need to do anything with it?
[16:29] <dmseg> guys even on lan VNC dosent perform well any help how to speed up stuff
[16:30] <v0lksman> what is the best way to determin what is consuming RAM on a system? The numbers in gnome system manager don't add up to what conky is reporting...
[16:30] <GuestZero> hey all . . . could someone tell me why when i try to install ubuntu7.10 to my flash drive all goes well until the end when i get an error "Cannot install grub to /dev/sdc1"?
[16:31] <ThexLeopard> ah for crying out loud i havent used a floppy in years
[16:32] <CartoonCat> is there a proscribed method for moving from Gnome to KDE?
[16:33] <favro> GuestZero: tried the howtos on pendrivelinux?
[16:33] <IdleOne> CartoonCat: you can install kubuntu-desktop but that has the effect of mixing up gnome and kde apps in the menus. backup! and do a fresh install if you can
[16:33] <GuestZero> favro . . . do you have a link?
[16:34] <Marcin26P> can samone help me with nVidia GeForce FX Go5200
[16:34] <GuestZero> never mind

[16:35] <wathek> hello all
[16:35] <ThexLeopard> have you installed the drivers?
[16:35] <wathek> Cocoabean, it's ok everything is istalled
[16:35] <shentino> and one more question
[16:35] <Marcin26P> when i install from system administration
[16:36] <user01> how do i have tv video out?
[16:36] <Marcin26P> drivers
[16:36] <shentino> Does that version support installation onto an LVM partition scheme?
[16:36] <Cocoabean> nice to hear wathek
[16:36] <wathek> Cocoabean, I had to make all the installation from the internet :(
[16:36] <Marcin26P> its the same now im unchecked box
[16:36] <ThexLeopard> so you havent installed the drivers?
[16:36] <Marcin26P> ther is statement that it works with new nvidia cards
[16:36] <oskude> shentino, im not sure(never did that) but i think it can
[16:36] <shentino> 7.04 apparently didnt...which surprises me.
[16:37] <favro> user01: depends on your vid card - which is it
[16:37] <Cocoabean> wathek, sorry to hear, but at least you got it installed
[16:37] <CartoonCat> IdleOne, oy, just did that a few weeks ago (deb -> ubunt) but if its the best way i guess ill need to
[16:37] <wathek> Cocoabean, yep I let it running while I'm sleeping
[16:37] <wathek> :)
[16:37] <shentino> oskude: how would I find out if ubuntu supports LVM stuff during installation?
[16:37] <Marcin26P> ThexLeopard: now i have uninstaled drivers
[16:37] <user01> favro, ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500]
[16:38] <wathek> Cocoabean, it had to download about 500 Mo from the internet that's OK
[16:38] <wathek> :
[16:38] <wathek> :)
[16:38] <oskude> shentino, check the docs, or boot from it till partitioning an see if theres option to install on LVM
[16:38] <oskude> !lvm
[16:38] <ThexLeopard> marcin read this
[16:38] <ThexLeopard> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[16:38] <shentino> thanks
[16:38] <ThexLeopard> itll make sure your drivers have gone
[16:38] <ThexLeopard> and itll tell you how to install them properly
[16:38] <ThexLeopard> its what i used to get my card working
[16:38] <Cocoabean> haha, well enjoy it wathek, I have to dash off to work, ill be around later, take care
[16:38] <wathek> ok Cocoabean
[16:39] <kev_> hey when is the new ubuntu 8.10 coming out?
[16:39] <ThexLeopard> i would run through "uninstall nvidia-glx" just in case
[16:39] <yaga> #ubuntu-fr
[16:39] <oskude> !version
[16:39] <ThexLeopard> if theres any nvidia files when you try to install again it might mess everything back up and youre back to square one
[16:39] <oskude> kev_, it means xx.10.2008
[16:40] <shentino> !freedisk
[16:40] <leeping2008> Hi there, is there a way for the "Window List" panel to show not only the windows on one monitor, but the windows on all monitors?  I believe that was the default option, but something happened to my panels and now the window list only shows the open windows on the monitor that the panel is on
[16:40] <shentino> !media
[16:40] <kev_> oskie, thanks.
[16:40] <shentino> uh...
[16:40] <oskude> kev_, so theoretically in one month
[16:40] <agent> how do i make the default places -> bookmark list longer so that it shows more than 5 bookmarks instead of creating a seperate "bookmarks" menu item after adding more than 5 bookmarks?
[16:40] <kev_> oskude*
[16:40] <favro> user01: do you have svideo out?
[16:40] <leeping2008> oh, never mind :) I fixed it ... I had two window lists open, the other one was hidden
[16:40] <kev_> oskude, i broke my sound so i was going to reformat anyway of fixing it?
[16:40] <user01> favro, yes
[16:40] <agent> i cannot find any option in gconf-editor for doing this...
[16:40] <Marcin26P> ThexLeopard: i will try ;)
[16:40] <B_166-ER-X> I just changed my video card, i managed to have some video support (on 8.04), but  its a geforce 9500GT 1g. and i have much less performance now than with my old card, i have the feeling the drivers is now optimized for my new card, is there a way to change That ? please
[16:41] <ThexLeopard> i think the main thing is to learn how to edit the x-server config yourself
[16:41] <ThexLeopard> nvidia messes the config up o;
[16:41] <favro> user01: if that is what you want to work you're out of luck atm afaik the ati drivers are bust
[16:41] <B_166-ER-X> 'not optimized' sry
[16:41] <ThexLeopard> but that thread will tell you how to anyway
[16:41] <oskude> kev_, well, thats propably the most laziest/easiest way yes ;)
[16:41] <henry> hello
[16:42] <kev_> oskude, lol

[16:52] <user01> favro, how do i know which one it is using now?  xorg.conf doesnt say
[16:53] <ikonia> anyone: you'd have to script it a little to do frame 1, then frame + 1, then frame +1 etc etc, in a loop
[16:53] <anyone> OK, is there documentation for it?
[16:53] <agent> oskude, i just read that this is not changeable in any config (silly gnome!), but one must change the source and recompile gnome-panel :(
[16:53] <oskude> agent, maybe you have luck in gnome irc channel
[16:53] <user01> favro, i assume ati

[16:58] <brumen> xgl_question: How does one disable Xgl process in Hardy? I dont want the Xgl effects and disabling this in Appearance->Visual effects still starts the Xgl
[16:58] <ikonia> Guest45910: I know hylafax

[16:58] <Guest45910> it works

[16:58] <ikonia> NigelS_: no
[16:59] <ikonia> oops
[16:59] <bazhang> MIKED, no
[16:59] <ikonia> MIKED: no
[16:59] <MIKED> lol ok
[16:59] <Guest45910> the Ubuntu Package manager HylaFax is a bit old version 4.3
[16:59] <Guest45910> There is a bug not fixed
[16:59] <ikonia> Guest45910: which bug
[16:59] <Guest45910> Then I try to install version 5.2.7
[17:00] <Guest45910> Actually x bug but I craete bug ...lol
[17:00] <Guest45910> Then I download a source package from internet
[17:00] <Guest45910> the run
[17:00] <Guest45910> ./configure
[17:00] <Guest45910> make
[17:00] <FloodBot1> Guest45910: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:00] <Guest45910> make install
[17:00] <bazhang> Guest45910, dont use the enter key as punctuation
[17:00] <Guest45910> okie
[17:00] <oskude> Guest45910, i assume you did: sudo make install
[17:00] <bazhang> Guest45910, dont compile; use what is in repos
[17:00] <logankoester> What needs to be restarted after editing /etc/modprobe.d/options to enact the change?
[17:01] <MIKED> guys is there a way for me to fix this bug ?
[17:01] <Guest45910> before install version 5.2.7, I uninstall the version 4.3
[17:01] <Thurston> hey guys. im trying to remove ubuntu due to ati being shit and wine not working right. i need to remove ubuntu and grub because i tried to just delete the partitions but grub was still on there and i kept getting error 22, and my pc was just stuck there. hwo do i go about removing everything properly?
[17:01] <bazhang> Guest45910, what bug; please give link
[17:01] <bazhang> Thurston, no cursing
[17:01] <Guest45910> After successfully installed, now my server didnot works...
[17:01] <Thurston> sorry
[17:02] <Guest45910> It even more worst as Hylafax 4.3
[17:02] <jurism> man tar
[17:02] <Guest45910> Not bug
[17:02] <Guest45910> But didn't works
[17:02] <bazhang> Guest45910, this is why you never compile; especially when you dont know what you are doing. newer is not better
[17:02] <ArthurArchnix> Thurston: That would depend on what you put on there.
[17:02] <Thurston> what do you mean?
[17:02] <oskude> Thurston, removing GRUB doesnt help you, you have to install the ms-windows boot loader, which i luckily already forgot everything #windows ?
[17:02] <Guest45910> The hylaFax scheduler did not run
[17:02] <kev_> Can only one help me fix the sound for ubuntu 8.04 it was working fine until i rebooted?
[17:03] <kev_> can anyone*
[17:03] <Thurston> ok...i'll give that channel a try
[17:03] <Thurston> thanks guys
[17:03] <ArthurArchnix> Thurston it would depend on what OS you installed.
[17:03] <Guest45910> But It wrote there "Stable" version
[17:03] <Thurston> im on xp pro, wich is what i want. but i was trying to fiddle with ubuntu
[17:03] <Guest45910> Now My Server cannot server already... Then I panic
[17:04] <logankoester> Can anyone tell me what I need to do after editing /etc/modprobe.d/options?
[17:04] <logankoester> Surely I don't need to restart the whole machine?
[17:04] <ArthurArchnix> Ok... xp pro has a cd that you can run that has a recovery console. Pop that in, then run fixmbr
[17:04] <ArthurArchnix> Thurston: ^^
[17:04] <Guest45910> Reinstall back the version 4.3 , but it try to point back version 5.2.7
[17:04] <bazhang> !windows
[17:04] <Guest45910> Headache...
[17:04] <Guest45910> What matter?
[17:04] <Thurston> well i tried. but the only thing close to recovery is ASR wich needs a floppy
[17:04] <onefunk> greetings all, i have a newbie question. when i install a new version of ubuntu do i have to re-install everything and reset everything?
[17:05] <ArthurArchnix> Thurston: People are getting upset you want help removing Ubuntu... PM me and I will walk you through it.
[17:05] <Khisanth> oO
[17:06] <Khisanth> Thurston: supergrub disk if you have a blank cd
[17:06] <dbrewer_rjr> i just installed nessus on my ubuntu server, i need to demo it to my boss. I have no gui on my server. can I make it do a port scan or something?
[17:06] <MIKED> guys is there a way for me to fix this bug ?
[17:06] <IdleOne> ArthurArchnix: no one is getting upset it is just that we try to help people with the ubuntu issues not remove ubuntu. help with installing another OS should be directed to the proper channel for that OS
[17:06] <Guest45910> bazhange still there?
[17:06] <bazhang> Guest45910, yes
[17:06] <Khisanth> hmm I guess you don't need a CD, USB works too
[17:06] <Guest45910> how dy...
[17:06] <tux> i need help, i can't ecord!!!dit master boot re
[17:07] <tux> i can't edit master boot record!
[17:07] <oskude> tux, you need root rights to edit MBR
[17:07] <shentino> I'm at the ubuntu media request page.
[17:07] <Guest45910> the version 4.3 some number can fax and some number cannot fax
[17:07] <shentino> What was the name of that alternate CD again?
[17:07] <Guest45910> that why I change it to 5.2.7

[17:08] <pegasos> Heya! I need to mount an NTFS filesystem but it fails because NTFS is marked as being in use. Can I get past this in any way? I only need to read from there, not write
[17:08] <oskude> tux, what error *exactly* do you get ?
[17:08] <IdleOne> shentino: for alternate cd you need to check the box if downloading and the name if requesting cd's is pretty much straight forward
[17:08] <wiherna> hola
[17:08] <bazhang> Guest45910, that is what caused you problems; you should asked for help with the repos hylafax before doing that.
[17:08] <wiherna> que tal
[17:08] <bazhang> wiherna, english please
[17:09] <Kenny> hello there, quick question. I can boot the live cd and check with it wether my hardware is recognized and working on ubuntu, right?

[17:09] <tux> and can't setup it neither booting from a live cd and using grub, root, setup... etc..
[17:09] <oskude> tux, does it say why it cant install grub in the MBR ?
[17:10] <tux> yes
[17:10] <Guest45910> bazhange: May I know which version Hyalafax you are using now?
[17:10] <Kenny> oh, is there something like a hardware manager too on ubuntu? to check the recognized hardware?
[17:10] <bazhang> Guest45910, you removed it, correct?
[17:10] <Guest45910> I not very quite sure
[17:10] <Speedy> Kenny,  yes

[17:11] <Speedy> just run the live cd
[17:11] <Guest45910> delete the /etc/hylafax
[17:11] <favro> Kenny: sudo lshw in a terminal

[17:11] <Guest45910> and delete /var/spool/hylafax
[17:11] <Kenny> ok ok thanks

[17:14] <bastid_raZor> MIKED; possibly you don't have that drive mounted? i assume the drive is in your computer right? not a network share?
[17:14] <bazhang> Guest45910, how are you installing items? with a gui or a cli
[17:14] <MIKED> yes
[17:14] <Guest45910> Go to package Manager
[17:14] <Guest45910> Synaptic Package Manager
[17:15] <bazhang> Guest45910, synaptic? then look for hylafax
[17:15] <bastid_raZor> MIKED; sudo fdisk -l (lowercase L) and do you see that drive?
[17:15] <Guest45910> That one is regular I did it
[17:15] <bazhang> Guest45910, is it installed?
[17:15] <Guest45910> but when the time upgrade to 5.2.7, I use the source pacakge
[17:15] <GuySoft> hi all, after loging in from gdm, i have no keyboard, what could be worng?

[17:18] <Guest45910> Haiz
[17:19] <MIKED> ok, how do I do that
[17:19] <oskude> pedro, just select "all files" as file type in the open dialog of kompozer...

[17:26] <kantor> hi, I've downloaded a flac music album. The problem is that all the tracks are in a big flac file and you need the cue file (which is also there) to write that to a CD. My question is: is there a program that strips the tracks from that big flac file based on the cue file ?

[17:33] <Rivas> The author is stating that we should do : mv ubuntu-8.04-desktop-i386.iso rescue
[17:33] <gnychis> i updated all of my packages, and it told me to reboot.  When i rebooted, my desktop no longer works... no wallpaper is shown and if i right click on the desktop nothing happens... any ideas?
[17:33] <Rivas> so,move ubuntu-8.04-desktop-i386.iso to rescue
[17:33] <Slart> All of a sudden my brasero just segfaults when I try to burn a dvd.. can't really remember if I've updated it lately.. does it work for everyone else?

[17:35] <jitka> where in ubuntu i can set starting services when is starting the system?
[17:35] <maswan> Rivas: If you look carefully it is 8.04.1 not 8.04 in the middle of the file name

[17:41] <loquitus_of_bor1> oh sweet...
[17:41] <loquitus_of_bor1> :)
[17:41] <MIKED> still getting unknown volume type
[17:41] <Rivas> guntbert I dont understand
[17:41] <Rivas> what directory I downloaded ubuntu to ?
[17:42] <guntbert> Rivas: with what program did you download?
[17:42] <bastid_raZor> MIKED; are you on Ubuntu 8.04?
[17:42] <Geoffrey2> when I start my computer, ubuntu detects three different wireless networks, one of which is mine...how do I specify which one it should be connecting to?
[17:43] <godzirra> Can anyone help me get my RTL8101 card working with Hardy?  I've tried googling and doing a number of things, but none of them seem to work.  In windows it says its an RTL8187 card.
[17:43] <Rivas> I download it with free download mmnger in my  windows vista desktop. and i run ubuntu from VirtualBox
[17:43] <Rivas> or do I  need to run itfrom bios ground
[17:43] <ikonia> Geoffrey2: click on the wirless icon in the top right, and select the one you want to connect to
[17:43] <godzirra> How do I tell for sure if my card is an 8187 or an 8101, and which driver do I need to use?
[17:44] <Geoffrey2> ikonia, true, but it gets a bit tiresome to have to do that EVERY time the computer starts up...
[17:44] <guntbert> Rivas: you must move the the file to a place, where ubuntu can reach it, I don't know about virtualBox
[17:44] <mads-> When I do Ctrl+Alt+F1 - what is that called?
[17:44] <MIKED> yes i am
[17:44] <ikonia> Geoffrey2: select it in "manual configuration"
[17:44] <tritium> mads-: you're switching to virtual console #1
[17:44] <mads-> tritium: thanks...
[17:44] <ikonia> Geoffrey2: it should re-connect to the last network is was connected to on reboot, unless the password is not saved (assuming you need a password)
[17:45] <Rivas> guntbert : Virtualbx is a virtual machine app
[17:45] <Rivas> Ok
[17:45] <atlef> Rivas: do you want to install in virtualbox
[17:45] <Rivas> So yes
[17:45] <Rivas> yes
[17:45] <The> join #hopeinenomena.net
[17:45] <mads-> Is it possible when I switch from my X server (GNOME) to a virtual console, that the music will keep playing? When I switch now, the musics mutes or stops
[17:45] <Rivas> lol
[17:45] <atlef> then you need to add it to virtualbox
[17:45] <atlef> Rivas: then you need to add it to virtualbox
[17:45] <Rivas> How ?
[17:46] <Geoffrey2> the password is saved, but every time I start the computer, it connects to the first network on the list...when I manually click on my own, THEN it asks for the password to unlock the default keyring...
[17:46] <darkness_> Would the Compiz desktop effects work well with an Intel i810 video card? if so, how do I make Compiz start upon startup?
[17:46] <KaiForce> anyone know of a good link for installing Slimserver on hardy?
[17:46] <Rivas> I put it at Vbox booting device entry.
[17:46] <Rivas> So that it boot the virtual cd. iso image
[17:46] <ikonia> Geoffrey2: set it in manual configuration
[17:46] <luminous> I also can't do file sharing in virtualbox, but yes there is a way
[17:46] <captainm> darkness_: works great
[17:46] <atlef> Rivas: under the virtual disk manager
[17:46] <luminous> Rivas: Im a regular virtualbox user
[17:46] <Geoffrey2> ikonia, ok, I'll try that again....last time I did that though, I lost all network connectivity....
[17:47] <luminous> atlef: do you know how to share files between a ubuntu host and xp guest?
[17:47] <ikonia> Geoffrey2: that shouldn't be the case, but I appriciate sometimes things go wrong
[17:47] <darkness_> captainm: how do I make Compiz start on startup then?
[17:47] <Rivas> luminous : I dont think it is possible
[17:47] <luminous> darkness_: which de are you using?
[17:47] <cyban> luminous - be on same domain
[17:47] <luminous> Rivas: Ive seen many people doing that
[17:47] <luminous> with samba maybe
[17:47] <Rivas> luminous
[17:47] <darkness_> luminous: gnome
[17:47] <Rivas> direct share ?
[17:48] <Rivas> or removable device/network share ?
[17:48] <atlef> luminous: yes, just add a folder to share under settings in virtualbox's xp machine
[17:48] <luminous> Rivas: don't know, Im also looking for the same
[17:48] <Geoffrey2> ikonia, so I'm taking it out of roaming mode, and providing the specific network name.....
[17:48] <mads-> When switching from GNOME to a virtual console, my music stops or mutes. Is there a way it to keep playing?

[17:49] <luminous> mads-: virtual console means?
[17:49] <Rivas> luminous : I dont think that cross-transactions(hosto to client / client to host) is supported by vBox
[17:49] <luminous> mads-: shell?
[17:49] <luminous> brb
[17:50] <aket> hello, i need help to remotely excute a command via ssh... anyone free to help ?
[17:50] <atlef> Rivas: read the manual
[17:50] <mads-> aket : what do you need?
[17:50] <ikonia> freakazoid: socks5 is a socks server, although socks servers are really not used any more
[17:50] <atlef> Rivas: http://www.virtualbox.org/download/1.6.4/UserManual.pdf
[17:50] <aket> mads-: I want to do something like ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>"nohup nice tmp/sim/RFA0.005/testeps > nohup.out &"

[17:51] <freakazoid> to use it
[17:51] <aket> mads-: I want to run testeps remotely and logoff immediately
[17:51] <freakazoid> cause sharing internet from my linux pc doesnt work
[17:51] <mads-> aket : And what is your problem? :)
[17:51] <ikonia> freakazoid: yes, I understand, and the socks5-server is a common server to use, but as I say, its a technology thats not really in use as much as it used to be
[17:52] <Slart> !ics | freakazoid, tried this howto?
[17:52] <freakazoid> yes slart,
[17:52] <freakazoid> works till i reconnect, then net is broken till i del the pkgs it made me get

[17:53] <Moduliz0r> How would I make a script to run whenever a usb memory stick is inserted?
[17:53] <mads-> aket : I'm right here :) Just need some kinda description of the problem before I can help :)
[17:53] <chrille> Hi, I really need help
[17:53] <aket> mads-: I just noticed that the nohup.out was written to my base home dir
[17:53] <freakazoid> slart, donno
[17:53] <Slart> freakazoid: you mean it works for a while?
[17:53] <MIKED> hi I was holding someone could help me with some drive problems, I cant seem to see my windows drive
[17:53] <ikonia> Moduliz0r: that used to be managed with hotplug, but as hotplug doesnt exist any more, I assume you could specify in a udev rule which matches your hardware id for the device
[17:53] <freakazoid> no
[17:53] <chrille> I've just bought a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo LI 2732
[17:54] <freakazoid> works till i reconnect
[17:54] <chrille> but I can't get the wireless internet working
[17:54] <Moduliz0r> ikonia: ok :/
[17:54] <chrille> who can help me?
[17:54] <freakazoid> then when i reconnect, the internet doesnt work, even on the host pc
[17:54] <chrille> I'm using Hardy
[17:54] <Araneidae> I see that Ubuntu's `less` tries to be "intelligent" and interpret the file.  How do I turn this brain damaged behaviour off?
[17:54] <Slart> freakazoid: what kind of internet connection do you have?
[17:54] <ikonia> Araneidae: what do you mean ?
[17:54] <freakazoid> dsl
[17:55] <chrille> can any Ubuntu-guru please pm me
[17:55] <dxdemetriou> o Hardy I have problem to use smb:// with nautilus. before when I used this form "smb://username@server" it worked. now it always use the username for the logged in user. the other problem is the error message after I'm trying to connect to some folder inside the server: "Failed to mount Windows share. Please select another viewer and try again". With konqueror is ok, with command-line mounting is ok..
[17:55] <Gnea> !wireless | chrille
[17:55] <Slart> freakazoid: so, what do you mean when you say "reconnect".. reconnect your computer to the LAN? your computer to internet? the other computers to yours??
[17:56] <chrille> Gnea, okay I'll read that
[17:56] <dxdemetriou> !smb
[17:56] <freakazoid> to the internet
[17:57] <Marcin26P> can samone help me with nvidia drivers ??
[17:57] <Araneidae> ikona, for example `less file-ending-in.doc` says "No catdoc available"
[17:57] <MIKED> hi I was holding someone could help me with some drive problems, I cant seem to see my windows drive
[17:58] <cyban> will Ubu software raid and MD device over ride Fakeraid si it can boot?
[17:58] <Araneidae> whereas `cat file-ending-in.doc |less` shows the file like less is supposed do.
[17:58] <Araneidae> Comprehensively brain damaged
[17:58] <ikonia> Araneidae: I see what your saying
[17:58] <Slart> Araneidae: you can't open files with less like that
[17:58] <kevinO> what is bonobo activation server
[17:58] <ikonia> kevinO: gnome component
[17:58] <aket> mads-: sorry, it was my careless that I forgot about the working directory. It works now !
[17:58] <kevinO> ty
[17:59] <aket> mads-: thank you so much
[17:59] <_coredump_> moinsen
[17:59] <Pupeno> what do you use to enable/disable services on ubuntu server?
[17:59] <Slart> Araneidae: nevermind me..   Have some more coffee
[18:00] <chrille> I can't figure it out, can somebody please help me with the setup of my wireless card??
[18:00] <guntbert> Araneidae: have a look at man less and look for INPUT PREPROCESSOR
[18:00] <Araneidae> rings a bell guntbert
[18:01] <mads-> aket : I didn't even do anything :P Glad you worked it out though :)
[18:01] <Popolon> haaa, don't know who created the stardict package
[18:01] <Popolon> but there is no plugins
[18:01] <Popolon> there are lot of usefull default plugins
[18:01] <Popolon> noone is present :(
[18:01] <ikonia> Araneidae: I can't see a way to disable that within less, I'm curious does more or head behave in the same way
[18:01] <ikonia> Araneidae: I don't have .doc file to test on
[18:01] <Araneidae> Aha: LESSOPEN='| /usr/bin/lesspipe %s'
[18:02] <Popolon> on my linux from scratch version I have  13 default plugins
[18:02] <Araneidae> guntbert hits the nail on the head.  unset LESSOPEN will do the trick (or, rather, hacking my .profile...)
[18:02] <Popolon> what does the package manager done ???
[18:03] <guntbert> Araneidae: all a question of the appropriate hammer ;-)) GTH
[18:03] <ikonia> Popolon: the plugins appear to be in seperate packages
[18:03] <MIKED> hi I was holding someone could help me with some drive problems, I cant seem to see my windows drive
[18:03] <Popolon> ikonia, do you now the name of the package on ubuntu ?
[18:03] <ikonia> Araneidae: ahh I see it in the shell env, nice spot
[18:03] <Popolon> it's on the tarbal by default
[18:03] <Marcin26P> http://wklej.ubuntu.pl/2
[18:03] <ikonia> Popolon: search for stardict - i will list them
[18:04] <Marcin26P> can samone tell me why this is not working ?
[18:04] <Marcin26P> http://wklej.ubuntu.pl/2
[18:04] <m0u5e> MIKED: does fdisk -l give you anything?
[18:04] <ikonia> Marcin26P: define "not working"
[18:04] <Araneidae> Evil feature of less, IMHO, but at least it'll be easy to turn off
[18:04] <MIKED> yes
[18:04] <MIKED> /dev/sta1
[18:04] <Popolon> ikonia, thank you, I'm verry dumb :))
[18:05] <ikonia> MIKED: /dev/sda1 ?
[18:05] <Pupeno> what do you use to enable/disable services on ubuntu server? rcconf or another tool?
[18:05] <ikonia> Pupeno: update-rc ?
[18:05] <Marcin26P> i have just 800x600
[18:05] <Marcin26P> in samthing like safe mode

[18:06] <minimec> is there someone with a ATI x1250. Would like to know, what fps rate xou get.
[18:06] <Marcin26P> but its second scren ?
[18:06] <ikonia> minimec: the frames your get will depend on the individaul setup, application, etc etc, it's pointless checking what others get
[18:06] <IdleOne> jerbear: #winehq
[18:06] <Sorlag> hi folks !! how do i convert my videos to be playable on my mobile (3gp/ avi)?
[18:07] <Nece228> recordmydesktop lags very much when im recording desktop
[18:07] <ikonia> Sorlag: use mencoder to encode them to a codec your phone supports
[18:07] <jerbear> IdleOne: i'm trying, no one is responding
[18:07] <m0u5e> Sorlag: try using avidemux or mkvtoolnix
[18:07] <IdleOne> jerbear: need to be patient
[18:07] <MIKED> pasted at http://paste.ubuntu.com/40458/
[18:07] <Marcin26P> brb
[18:08] <jerbear> IdleOne: i am, i'm just branching out :)
[18:08] <minimec> ikonia: I do know that. I get about 1000fps with DVI Connection with a 1680/1050 and I think this is nothing.
[18:08] <ikonia> minimec: if you do know that - why are you asking ?
[18:08] <m0u5e> jerbear: i dont believe theres a way to set a drive as read only in wine... however you could probably specify ~/.wine/drive_c as read only
[18:08] <Sorlag> k ill give those a try.. thanks guys
[18:08] <Vinny``> any multi-monitor people out there?
[18:08] <m0u5e> Sorlag: np
[18:08] <m0u5e> Vinny``: multi-monitor sucks in linux :<
[18:08] <ikonia> Vinny``: just ask the question
[18:08] <ikonia> m0u5e: no it doesn't
[18:08] <Pupeno> ikonia: I don't have any programs called update-rc except update-rc.d
[18:09] <m0u5e> ikonia: its horrible if you're using anything more than vesa / xrender
[18:09] <ikonia> Pupeno: update-rc.d, I correct myself a few seconds after
[18:09] <minimec> ikonia: as 1680/1050 monitor are getting quiet popular... That would at least give me an idea...
[18:09] <wisecapt> join #ubuntu-ru
[18:09] <ikonia> m0u5e: I disagree
[18:09] <guntbert> MIKED: there is an error in the first line of /etc/fstab, you have to edit that file
[18:09] <ikonia> minimec: #ati may be better
[18:09] <m0u5e> ikonia: really? my system is just crap on two screens, its buggy, hard to use, randomly crashes, etc
[18:09] <MIKED> ok
[18:10] <MIKED> how do I edit that file
[18:10] <Vinny``> why is it that I have such a hard time setting this up. I have dual LCD screens (different resolutions: 1280x1024; 1400x900)). I have the dual screens working but half of my KDE taskbar (not shown on the second screen). I'm using twinview with a dual head nvidia card. Any help?
[18:10] <ikonia> m0u5e: I've had positive with intel chips, nvidia chips etc
[18:10] <yao_ziyuan> how do i update to the latest linux kernel?
[18:10] <ikonia> m0u5e: with xinerma, and nvidia's twinview
[18:10] <ikonia> yao_ziyuan: you don't
[18:10] <ikonia> yao_ziyuan: ubuntu will offer updates when they are available
[18:10] <m0u5e> ikonia: i've used twinview, it doesn't work very well for me
[18:10] <guntbert> MIKED: silly /me, just misread your output, but you will have to edit that file anyway
[18:10] <ikonia> m0u5e: it is card/monitor fussy
[18:10] <MIKED> lol ok
[18:10] <ikonia> m0u5e: no question on that
[18:10] <yao_ziyuan> ikonia: i need because my new burner is not supported by this kernel - it can't even read a data cd's files (only read the directories)
[18:11] <minimec> ikonia: I was there, as I was unable to install the new Catalyst 8.8 binary installer on ubuntu. So I went back to the restricted driver.
[18:11] <ikonia> yao_ziyuan: what burner is it
[18:11] <Nece228> recordmydesktop lags very much when im recording desktop
[18:11] <yao_ziyuan> ikonia: Samsung TS-S652H
[18:11] <yao_ziyuan> *TS-H652H
[18:11] <IdleOne> Nece228: do you have a question or you just want us to know about it
[18:11] <jerbear> is there some trickery that i can do to "alias" the path on my drive as read-only and then add that alias as the drive?
[18:11] <yao_ziyuan> ikonia: it can read directories and files from a data cd under windows xp
[18:12] <ikonia> jerbear: ask in #winehq - it' specialist
[18:12] <m0u5e> ikonia:  :<
[18:12] <yao_ziyuan> ikonia: so i think it is a real samsung product
[18:12] <Nece228> idleone: dont talk s*** i wanna record my desktop
[18:12] <yao_ziyuan> ikonia: problem is under ubuntu it can only read a data cd's directories, not copy files from it
[18:12] <ikonia> yao_ziyuan: if it can read it, the drive is supported
[18:12] <guntbert> MIKED: it would be easier with a GUI-tool, but I don't know if such exists in ubuntu
[18:12] <Nece228> idleone: i tried everythink everythink starts to horribly lag when im starting to record desktop
[18:13] <IdleOne> Nece228: **** you is just as bad as me typing it out. you have not specified a question. what do you want us to help you do?
[18:13] <ikonia> Nece228: if you can't speak without swearing - please don't speak
[18:13] <MIKED> :/... you tell me
[18:13] <yao_ziyuan> ikonia: it can only read directories, not copy files from these directories
[18:13] <IdleOne> Nece228: how do the recordings turn out? do they run fine?
[18:13] <ikonia> yao_ziyuan: what happen when you to copy from it
[18:13] <yao_ziyuan> ikonia: says I/O error
[18:13] <ikonia> yao_ziyuan: ok - so thats not a driver issue
[18:13] <Nece228> idleone: when i start to record desktop session, my pc starts to lag horribly
[18:14] <yao_ziyuan> ikonia: "Error reading from file: Input/output error"
[18:14] <ikonia> yao_ziyuan: I'd put $100 that says a kernel update would not fix that
[18:14] <m0u5e> is there a way for check my LCDs hardware rated max brightness, and what my software setting is currently at?
[18:14] <yao_ziyuan> ikonia: what issue is it, then?
[18:14] <IdleOne> Nece228: perhaps you need to upgrade ram. without more info we cannot help you diagnose what could be causing the lag
[18:14] <m0u5e> even though i'm at max brightness for ubunutu, i dont think i am as bright as my lcd actually supports :/
[18:15] <ikonia> yao_ziyuan: , could the physical cd, the way it was burnt, the BUS on the motherboard, cable, etc, 100 things
[18:15] <Nece228> idleone: i have 512 mb ram, 3000+ amd 64, when i had 900 mhz duron i had no lag
[18:15] <ikonia> Nece228: what video card do you have
[18:15] <MIKED> so how come this file isnt correct ?
[18:15] <Nece228> idleone: radeon 9600 256mb
[18:15] <yao_ziyuan> ikonia: but the same bus, IDE cable can run my previous DVD drive well - read files from a CD/DVD
[18:15] <ikonia> Nece228: and interesting experience would be to open the system monitor - start to record and see if the / what resources become busy
[18:15] <ikonia> Nece228: I suspect its the video drives
[18:15] <ikonia> drivers
[18:15] <Nece228> ok
[18:16] <ikonia> yao_ziyuan: fair point, potential issue with the bus/drive/media/burn then?
[18:16] <yao_ziyuan> ikonia: and the same data cd can be read under a windows machine well
[18:16] <ikonia> yao_ziyuan: windows = works doesn't not mean it will/should work under ubuntu
[18:16] <guntbert> MIKED: search google for "ubuntu mount windows"
[18:16] <Nece228> idleone: recordmydesktop uses biggest amount of cpu - 25 %
[18:17] <MIKED> this will tell me how to fix my problem ??
[18:17] <yao_ziyuan> ikonia: i think it's a deliberate anti-linux campaign by microsoft + samsung!
[18:17] <IdleOne> Nece228: try lowering the frames per second in the advanced option
[18:17] <ikonia> yao_ziyuan: I think thats nonsense
[18:17] <ikonia> Nece228: I'd put money on the ati drivers being an issue, straight off the bat
[18:17] <ikonia> Nece228: thats normally the weakest link in any system with an ati card in with display issues
[18:17] <guntbert> MIKED: I suppose - one of the first 5 hits
[18:17] <cyban> anyone know if Software Raid in Ubu will over ride Fakeraid controllers to allow install?
[18:17] <MIKED> ok
[18:18] <ikonia> cyban: disable fake raid controller, use software raid only
[18:18] <cyban> cant in the bios :/
[18:18] <ikonia> cyban: you can
[18:18] <ikonia> cyban: there is an option to disable fake raid or use "normal" or "ide" disk
[18:18] <hwilde> disable everything you don't need
[18:18] <Nece228> ikonia: the problem isnt with video drivers, ive tried with opensource and proprietary drivers but still same issue
[18:18] <ikonia> Nece228: and both are weak
[18:18] <cyban> scsi fakeraid
[18:19] <ikonia> cyban: disable it in the scsi bios then
[18:19] <cyban> but I see no option for it on this BIOS
[18:19] <ikonia> cyban: it will be on the card bios
[18:19] <ikonia> cyban: not the motherboard bios
[18:19] <Nece228> idleone: same issue
[18:19] <cyban> ya been tryin to get into it, this server is kind of a pos
[18:20] <cyban> well, nice server, pos config
[18:20] <IdleOne> Nece228: ikonia suggested the video drivers might be the issue. perhaps if you are nice to him he can help you figure it out
[18:21] <Nece228> ikonia: figure it out
[18:21] <cyban> ok if I manage to disable fakeraid in the controller, set up the software raid for raid 0 with 2 80gb disks and select auto partition should work?
[18:21] <Nece228> idleone: oh , and sorry for that ****
[18:21] <ikonia> Nece228: I've asked you once about the language, Please stop
[18:22] <Nece228> idleone: hey i didnt said anythink wrong
[18:22] <IdleOne> lol Nece228 that is not going to gain favor with ikonia . and no worries about the language. just be nice and people will be nice back
[18:22] <ikonia> cyban: well, yes, but raid 0, in my opinion is not something that should be used for anything other than non-critical file systems with an above average IO need
[18:22] <IdleOne> ikonia: he was saying sorry
[18:22] <Nece228> idleone: ive never thinked that * means bad word
[18:22] <ikonia> IdleOne: he didn't need to use another set of stars
[18:22] <MIKED> its being weird, it keeps saying it cannot find my dev/sta1
[18:22] <mads-> When switching from GNOME to a virtual console, my music stops or mutes. Is there a way it to keep playing?
[18:22] <IdleOne> ikonia: aggreed
[18:22] <cyban> its just a test server, non critical - my samba servers are on Fedora but wanted to try out Ubu
[18:22] <IdleOne> agreed
[18:22] <ikonia> MIKED: the driver is /dev/sda1
[18:23] <Odd-rationale> mads-: you can use something like mpd
[18:23] <ikonia> MIKED: the drive is /dev/sda1 - not /dev/sta1
[18:23] <Odd-rationale> mads-: or mocp
[18:23] <Popolon>  dict.cn doesn't work :((
[18:23] <mads-> Odd-rationale: Thanks, I'll look that up :)
[18:23] <Nece228> ikonia: how can i fix my issue?
[18:23] <Popolon> on the same network, this work on my lfs box
[18:23] <ikonia> Nece228: I'm sorry, I'm busy
[18:24] <Popolon> what's this problem ???
[18:24] <MIKED> yesyes
[18:24] <Popolon> it's activated
[18:24] <ikonia> Nece228: I have given you some simple pointers to help diagnose the issue
[18:24] <Nece228> ikonia: or wait, ive seen in youtube clip when guy with radeon 9600 recorded desktop
[18:24] <Nece228> ikonia: so i dont think its driver problem
[18:24] <cyban> ... ok see if this works, unplug one of the HD's heh
[18:24] <ikonia> Nece228: that means nothing
[18:24] <cyban> for me, not you Nece
[18:25] <ikonia> Nece228: there are multple hardware vedoras with that chipset, multiple drivers, etc
[18:25] <cgibin> why doesnt ubuntu have hosts.allow ?
[18:25] <ol_schoola> greetings all
[18:25] <ikonia> Nece228: I suggest you walk through the debugging suggestion I have you
[18:25] <ikonia> cgibin: install tcp wrappers and it will
[18:25] <mads-> Odd-rationale: But those two, doesn't they also "shut up" when not in the active virtual environment ?
[18:25] <cgibin> ikonia, nice
[18:26] <cgibin> apt-get install wrappers
[18:26] <HardDriveBlues> Good Morning
[18:26] <cgibin> mornin
[18:26] <node357> !info tcp-wrappers
[18:26] <ol_schoola> morning
[18:26] <node357> :(
[18:26] <ikonia> cgibin: I think the package is tcpd
[18:26] <cgibin> kewl let me try that
[18:26] <HardDriveBlues> Can someone help me with: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=897000
[18:27] <Odd-rationale> mads-: well, they have a daemon that runs. you can close the client, and still have the daemon running. So you can listen to your music after you log off, even if you restart X
[18:27] <cgibin> let me search for it doesnt seem to exists
[18:27] <Marcin26P> pls help samone :/ http://wklej.ubuntu.pl/3
[18:27] <Marcin26P> i dont know what to do now
[18:27] <mads-> Odd-rationale: kewl :) Thanks
[18:27] <ol_schoola> i just switched from FC/CentOS for my mythtv backend, have a quick init question...
[18:27] <Marcin26P> my card is gf fx go 5200
[18:27] <node357> cgibin, ikonia is right, it's tcpd
[18:27] <Marcin26P> :/
[18:28] <ikonia> Marcin26P: check the nvidia module is loaded
[18:28] <Marcin26P> ikonia: haw to check ?
[18:28] <ikonia> Marcin26P: lsmod
[18:28] <HardDriveBlues> modprobe
[18:28] <ikonia> HardDriveBlues: no
[18:28] <HardDriveBlues> roger
[18:28] <HardDriveBlues> mybad
[18:28] <yao_ziyuan> wow, men, i even googled a linux.kernel discussion message about adding my burner type to linux kernel: http://groups.google.com/group/linux.kernel/browse_thread/thread/a759e517d64434e5
[18:28] <yao_ziyuan> means this burner type is quite new
[18:28] <IdleOne> HardDriveBlues: lsmod will list the loaded modules
[18:28] <Marcin26P> agpgart                34760  2 nvidia,intel_agp
[18:28] <Lusule> hi there, my wireless network died and i can't work out how to get it back again, how do i get up the program that browses broadcasting networks so i can choose one?
[18:29] <ikonia> yao_ziyuan: yes, I see
[18:29] <HardDriveBlues> netmanager
[18:29] <ol_schoola> the redhat dists allow "service networking restart" and such
[18:29] <ikonia> Marcin26P: no, you should just have "nvidia" as a module
[18:29] <Marcin26P> so ?
[18:29] <Marcin26P> what to do ?
[18:29] <ikonia> Marcin26P: sudo modprobe nvidia
[18:29] <ikonia> !nvidia > Marcin26P
[18:29] <ol_schoola> is there an ubuntu equivalent or do i just shoot them off from /etc/init.d?
[18:29] <yao_ziyuan> ikonia: so i wait some time until linux kernel fully support my burner, right?
[18:30] <Marcin26P> nvidia               3934028  0
[18:30] <ikonia> yao_ziyuan: seems the most sensible
[18:30] <Marcin26P> ther is one ;)
[18:30] <sinan> This might sound stupid, but how does audio work in Linux? Can anyone direct me to more information?
[18:30] <ikonia> Marcin26P: good
[18:30] <ol_schoola> apt recommended ubuntu-script-helpers or sysvcontrol
[18:30] <ikonia> Marcin26P: so the module is loaded
[18:30] <casp3> windows demands a password when i try to connect to another pc in my intranet - how can i find out which one it is?
[18:30] <ikonia> ol_schoola: update-rc.d
[18:30] <cyban> im going to kick a puppy if this works.....
[18:30] <casp3> ubuntu -> windows
[18:30] <ol_schoola> thx iconia
[18:30] <Lusule> hi ikonia :)
[18:30] <ikonia> Lusule: hello
[18:31] <Lusule> anyone able to help me work out how to get my wireless network back up?
[18:31] <MikeSeth> sinan: kernel drivers expose sound devices through /dev/xxx, xxx dependent on driver family. Applications read/write to /dev/xxx or use sound services to do it for them
[18:31] <MikeSeth> Lusule: ask a question
[18:31] <node357> sinan, I wish I knew how Linux audio worked... they keep changing it :P
[18:31] <Lusule> MikeSeth, i just did
[18:31] <danix> hola
[18:31] <hwilde> !alsa > node357
[18:31] <Lusule> MikeSeth, twice now
[18:31] <node357> thanks hwilde
[18:31] <linxeh> they dont keep changing it
[18:31] <ArcInversion> Lusule: Describe what's wrong with your internet then
[18:31] <Marcin26P> ikonia: i did instaled drivers from nvidia site it hmm lets say worked
[18:31] <yao_ziyuan> ikonia: i see a scary comment around the kernel code relevant to my burner type: /* Maybe we should just blacklist TSSTcorp... */
[18:31] <yao_ziyuan> ikonia: TSSTcorp is my burner manufacturer...
[18:31] <ikonia> Marcin26P: there is no need to install drivers from nvidia.com
[18:32] <Marcin26P> i restarted and now when it starts it starts with low eficiency
[18:32] <hwilde> Lusule, system, admin, network
[18:32] <Lusule> ArcInversion, my wireless went down and i don't have a clue how to get it up again - i don't know the program that is used to browse nearby networks
[18:32] <hwilde> Lusule, system, admin, network
[18:32] <Lusule> hwilde, ah, slight problem there, i'm in fluxbox and the menu seems to be different
[18:32] <ikonia> yao_ziyuan: probably just a toublesome hardware vendor to get info off
[18:32] <MIKED> hi I am still having a problem getting this to work
[18:32] <Marcin26P> ikonia when i start drivers from system administration i dodnt have 3d acc and could use opengl full scren in mplayer
[18:32] <Lusule> hwilde i need to know how to call the program without using the menus
[18:32] <HardDriveBlues> lusule: netmanager
[18:32] <ikonia> Marcin26P: that was potentially fixable until you installed from nvidia.com
[18:32] <Lusule> HardDriveBlues, thanks :)
[18:33] <hwilde> Lusule, probly somethin like network manager
[18:33] <Marcin26P> and what to do now ?
[18:33] <gnuskool> g'day
[18:33] <ikonia> Marcin26P: remove the drivers from nvidia.com, or ask for support from #nvidia
[18:33] <Lusule> HardDriveBlues, netmanager not found ><
[18:33] <ArcInversion> EW Nvidia
[18:34] <cgibin> ikonia: thank you
[18:34] <MikeSeth> MIKED: please ask a specific question
[18:34] <ikonia> cgibin: no problem
[18:34] <minimec> Lusule: Open a console and do iwspy ethX scanning (ethX may be different for you). Doing that you will see, if your card is working correctly. You should see the wireless networks around.
[18:34] <HardDriveBlues> lusule: nm-applet
[18:34] <jerbear> is there a way to mount a path to some other path using fusermount?
[18:35] <MIKED> I had asked the question previously, I can seem to see my windows drive in "places"
[18:35] <Lusule> HardDriveBlues, aha, thanks!  minimec i get 'wlan0 doesn't support IP addresses'
[18:35] <HardDriveBlues> sorry Lusule, dont have my ubuntu notebook at work today ;)
[18:36] <spartan0> anyone know if I can add raid after I setup an ubuntu server?
[18:36] <yao_ziyuan> how do i install a windows xp besides my current ubuntu installation?
[18:36] <MikeSeth> MIKED: is it mounted?
[18:36] <minimec> Lusule: If you do iwconfig in  a console, what do you see?
[18:36] <yao_ziyuan> 1. prepare a fat32 partition?
[18:36] <MIKED> i think so
[18:36] <Lusule> HardDriveBlues, nm-applet was the program i was thinking of
[18:36] <MIKED> http://paste.ubuntu.com/40458/
[18:36] <MikeSeth> MIKED: type mount in the console and read the output
[18:36] <Lusule> minimec, i see wlan0 as the only one with wireless extensions
[18:37] <MIKED> http://paste.ubuntu.com/40463/
[18:37] <Lusule> HardDriveBlues, running nm-applet seems to have given me my internet back, but it wasn't running before in fluxbox so i'm not sure what happened
[18:38] <sinan> MikeSeth: thanks !
[18:38] <ActionParsnip> hey all
[18:38] <ActionParsnip> quick question for you all
[18:38] <budmang> anyone here us ENVY for dual monitor/
[18:38] <sharperguy> !ask
[18:38] <ActionParsnip> hos can I write a file allocation table to an image of a disk
[18:38] <minimec> Lusule: Is there a ESSID:off/any or some other ESSID:?
[18:39] <cyban> holy hell it worked......
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> budmang: i use it for a single display
[18:39] <Lusule> minimec, ESSID:"<correct ESSID name>"
[18:39] <cyban> or... sort of
[18:39] <budmang> i have 2 nvidia cards.
[18:39] <budmang> just cant get both to show up.
[18:39] <Lusule> minimec, it's fixed now since i ran that applet, i seem to have connection again, but i'd love to know what went wrong and how to fix it without the applet
[18:40] <roger_padactor> how do you map a network drive?
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> budmang: ive never had to set u dual display dude, sorry
[18:40] <MikeSeth> MIKED: I see a couple of non-Linux partitions mounted but I am not sure what they are and why theyre mounted with fuse. You will most likely not see them in Gnome places
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> !smbmount | roger_padactor
[18:40] <minimec> Lusule:OK. Yeah it also looked to me, that the device is working ok.
[18:40] <MIKED> ahaha, well I have no clue?!
[18:40] <Ssdsd> hello
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> roger_padactor: grab smbmount
[18:40] <Lusule> minimec, i think the problem was simply that i don't know how to connect to my chosen network without that applet
[18:40] <Lusule> minimec, and for some reason it wasn't connecting automatically
[18:41] <lirit> i'm trynig to settup evolution to read comp.lang.python. what is the USENET news server?
[18:41] <Lusule> minimec, i'm a bit of a linux newb ><
[18:41] <minimec> Lusule: There are tools like wifi-manager, wicd. you can also configure your device with iwconfig.
[18:41] <roger_padactor> ActionParsnip, am i supposed to get a message?
[18:42] <Lusule> minimec, now i have internet back on the proper computer, i can stop panicking and having withdrawal symptoms, go away and research how to use iwconfig properly :D
[18:42] <MikeSeth> MIKED: read the output of mount, the two last lines are it. Whether they are your disks I dont know, try opening /media in file explorer
[18:42] <cyban> do I need to do something to start the desktop manager?
[18:42] <minimec> Lusule: ;)
[18:42] <MIKED> no I can see and access both fuse mounted drives
[18:42] <MIKED> it is the windows one I cant see or access
[18:43] <ActionParsnip> roger_padactor: no, its a program you need to mount them, you can also use konqueror to mount them
[18:43] <cyban> er rather is there a default desktop enviroment thats loaded?
[18:43] <Lusule> minimec, HardDriveBlues, thanks and goodbye :)
[18:44] <minimec> Lusule: Basiclly in your case the syntax would be something like sudo iwconfig wlan0 <option> setting. Example: sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid off (taht would accept any essid.
[18:44] <doggymenz> if i start xorg without a config file, then compiz dont work
[18:45] <cyban> is the default Ubuntu server install without a desktop enviroment?
[18:45] <cyban> arf
[18:46] <yao_ziyuan> i even found a ubuntuforums.org message thread about my problematic samsung dvd burner: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-625825.html
[18:46] <Debolaz> Ubuntu installer can resize an NTFS partition, so I don't have to worry about that if I want to install a system with dual boot, right?
[18:47] <kavon> How do I uninstall a program (NetBeans) that I installed from their website. I downloaded from their site and installed that file. How can I completely remove it?
[18:48] <jerbear> is virtualbox pretty comparable to vmware?
[18:48] <MikeSeth> MIKED: then its not mounted for whichever reason
[18:48] <nDuff> jerbear, depends on your use cases.
[18:48] <budmang> http://phpfi.com/347151
[18:48] <MikeSeth> MIKED: mount it and put it in fstab if necessary
[18:48] <nDuff> jerbear, I'd call it reasonably close to VMware Server.
[18:49] <Debolaz> jerbear: Vmware has some adventages, but in many cases VirtualBox will be sufficient.
[18:49] <jerbear> nDuff: in what use cases might vmware excel?
[18:49]  * Debolaz needs vmware due to USB.
[18:49] <Kcaj> How can I tell which version of gtk I have?
[18:49] <nDuff> jerbear, not really aimed at VMware Workstation (with its snapshot support) or users of ESX (high-performance server scenarios), but the desktop integration is very good.
[18:49] <jerbear> Debolaz: ahhh... usb is one of my requirements, so vmware then?
[18:49] <negge> Transferring files between two Ubuntu boxes on my LAN is terribly slow (average speed is only a couple hundred kilobytes), I read some on the forums but no one had any good solutions. When I ping one computer from the other one with "ping -s 65507 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" I get a 73% package loss, is that normal or are my NICs fscked up?
[18:50] <Debolaz> jerbear: Well, you'd need the proprietary version of VirtualBox if you want USB support there.
[18:50] <nDuff> jerbear, incidentally, the qemu/kvm folks had a rewrite of their USB support recently, to the point that webcams and such work in very new releases now.
[18:50] <Debolaz> jerbear: But even that version has some problems with USB, so your milage may vary. It won't support iPhone for instance.
[18:50] <nDuff> s@releases@git builds@
[18:50] <Slart> negge: it depends on a lot.. switches, nics etc etc
[18:50] <Slart> negge: try iperf.. see what kind of bandwidth you get
[18:51] <MIKED> how do I mount the drive ?
[18:51] <jerbear> i'm thinking vmware might be the most solid in my case
[18:51] <ol_schoola> ikonia: exactly what i was looking for...  that led the 'service' script is in debian-helper-scripts pkg
[18:51] <Slart> negge: what kind of packet loss do you get if you just run normal ping? 0%
[18:51] <negge> Slart: I have some random old NICs I "borrowed" from work, but the switch is a high quality AT 12-port switch which shouldn't be the bottleneck. I have two other switches/routers to test with though if I run out of options
[18:51] <ol_schoola> and sysvconfig which i assume is the runtime level editor for initscripts?
[18:52] <negge> Slart: hold on I'll run some tests
[18:52] <nDuff> jerbear, *shrug*. I use VirtualBox for my desktop (as its integration is great), and KVM+libvirt on my QA servers (where flexibility is key); it depends on your goals. (I'm fighting off the lab manager who's trying to switch us to ESX)
[18:52] <jerbear> what's the best way to install vmware server?
[18:53] <nybbj> hi how to get the rain effects to work? what hot keys?
[18:53] <jerbear> how is vmware 2? it's in beta right?
[18:53] <negge> Slart: ping computer B from computer A results in 0% packet loss (for 54 packets)
[18:53] <Debolaz> jerbear: I'd recommend workstation over server if that's an option.
[18:53] <negge> Slart: computer B to computer A results in 8% packet loss
[18:53] <magc> hey--what email client do you all use to handle pop?
[18:53] <magc> is there something like outlook
[18:54] <Debolaz> jerbear: It has more features and better USB.
[18:54] <Popolon> http://osdir.com/ml/debian.devel.x/2003-06/msg00204.html
[18:54] <[arch3r]> evolution
[18:54] <negge> magc: there's mozilla thunderbird
[18:54] <Slart> negge: 8% for regular ping.. that's kind of bad
[18:54] <jerbear> Debolaz: ok
[18:54] <negge> or evolution
[18:54] <Popolon> this bug is on xubuntu 8.04+ too
[18:54] <ol_schoola> evolution or thunderbird
[18:54] <Popolon> :(
[18:54] <negge> Slart: yeah I guess so, haven't noticed it before
[18:54] <nybbj> hi how to get the rain effects to work? what hot keys?
[18:54] <sorin-mihai> magc, Evolution
[18:54] <negge> Slart: could that be the whole problem?
[18:54] <Debolaz> jerbear: As for installation, it should mostly just work even though it uses a custom installer.
[18:54] <negge> Slart: 'cause I've noticed that sometimes when I transfer files via FTP I get like 6 MB/s or something but NFS transfers are inevitable stuck at below 500 kb/s
[18:55] <sven> damn.. why is my amarok crushing when i try to listen to last.fm ???
[18:55] <jerbear> Debolaz: it doesn't appear to be free :/
[18:55] <Debolaz> jerbear: You'll get services installed, entries on the menu, etcd, installed correctly with the default installer.
[18:55] <Debolaz> jerbear: It's not free as in $0 no.
[18:55] <Popolon> http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11366
[18:55] <jerbear> wow, that's expensive
[18:55] <Popolon> this bug depend on gcc
[18:56] <Debolaz> jerbear: But it is the best tool. However, there's no reason why you can't try VirtualBox first if price is an issue.
[18:56] <Slart> negge: I would check the cables.. and possible check to see if that nic could be changed
[18:56] <nybbj> hi how to get the rain effects to work? what hot keys? please send message if know
[18:56] <negge> Slart: I tried changing it a couple days ago but Ubuntu wouldn't recognize it automatically so I switched back to the old one
[18:56] <jerbear> Debolaz: i need usb though
[18:56] <cherva> if I have 2 HDDs and one of them is unmounted does it spin ?
[18:56] <Debolaz> jerbear: You have that in the proprietary version, it's no cost for personal use.
[18:57] <negge> Slart: I'll check the cables too. One question, how do I use iperf? I ran iperf --help but don't really get it. Should I start it in server mode on one computer and as client on the other?
[18:57] <jerbear> Debolaz: i think i may already have that version installed. i'll give it a shot.
[18:58] <MIKED> can someone help me I am having some trouble with mounting my windows drive so I can see it
[18:58] <jerbear> anyone had any problems with usb on virtualbox?
[18:58] <Slart> negge: yes
[18:58] <LinuxGhost> HELP me , theres a file SPSS.exe that cannot be deleted, please help me!
[18:58] <Slart> negge: iperf -s on one server, iperf -c XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX on the other
[18:59] <negge> Slart: okay
[18:59] <jerbear> Debolaz: you mentioned that virtualbox does not support the iphone over usb. does vmware?
[18:59] <sven> damn.. why is my amarok crushing when i try to listen to last.fm ???
[18:59] <freakazoid> jerbear, vmware doesnt
[18:59] <freakazoid> ive tried
[19:00] <Debolaz> freakazoid: It does.
[19:00] <jerbear> Debolaz: i'm guess workstation, though?
[19:00] <cherva> if I have 2 HDDs and one of them is unmounted does the unmounted one it spin ?
[19:00] <Debolaz> freakazoid: Vmware server doesn't, but vmware workstation and player does.
[19:00] <Cuog422> does anyone know how to make f-spot stop trying to unload pictures off an SD card whenever it mounts?
[19:00] <negge> Slart: I got 2.81 Mbit/s
[19:00] <freakazoid> ive tried both Debolaz
[19:00] <freakazoid> didnt work
[19:00] <negge> Slart: it's better than the NFS speeds but it still sucks considering it should be close to 100 Mbit/s
[19:01] <LinuxGhost> HELP me , theres a file SPSS.exe that cannot be deleted, please help me
[19:01] <Debolaz> freakazoid: I just synced five minutes ago so I'm kind of having a hard time believing it's vmware that's the problem. :)
[19:01] <LinuxGhost> i want to uninstall spss application with wine but wine cant deleted it only copies another files like a virus eating more space on my harddisc
[19:01] <Slart> negge: 2.81 Mbit is pretty bad if it's ethernet
[19:01] <Debolaz> jerbear: Or player.
[19:01] <MIKED> can someone help me I am having some trouble with mounting my windows drive so I can see it\
[19:01] <negge> Slart: yes it's ethernet, sudo ethtool eth0 says the link is 100 Mbit on both computers
[19:01] <sdfsdfsd> j
[19:02] <Slart> negge: you don't have a laptop you can connect to that switch just to see if the speeds are the same to that one
[19:02] <jerbear> Debolaz: is player pretty easy to setup a virtual machine on? last time i tried it, it wasn't
[19:02] <RequinB4> on mozilla firefox, about:plugin gives two entries for mplayerplug-in.so, but i can only find one.  However, there is only one copy of subsidiary plugins like mplayerplug-in-wmp.so; etc
[19:02] <negge> Slart: I have my friends Windows Vista computer here at home, any speed tests like iperf that I can run between those two?
[19:02] <jerbear> Debolaz: all i really want to do is run itunes so i can sync my iphone
[19:02] <negge> I do have an Eee with Ubuntu aswell, I'll hook it up right away
[19:03] <Debolaz> jerbear: You can't set up virtual machines with player, you need something else to do that. That being said, once you've set the machine up you only need player.
[19:03] <keco> hi!
[19:03] <Slart> negge: anything should be able to cope with 2.81 Mbit/s.. even the eee =)
[19:03] <RequinB4> !hi
[19:03] <Debolaz> jerbear: So you could just use workstation to set up the virtual machine, then use player.
[19:03] <keco> can somebody help me with my television card, model: flyvideo 2000 ?
[19:04] <keco> my machine run ubuntu 8.04
[19:04] <jerbear> Debolaz: but that does work with vmware? do you use an iphone with it?
[19:04] <negge> Slart: I'll get back to you in a couple of minutes when I've run iperf between the Eee and the two other computers
[19:04] <Slart> negge: sure
[19:04] <P3X-018> Do KDE applications run without problems in Ubuntu, even though I haven't installed some KDE?
[19:04] <MIKED> can someone help me I am having some trouble with mounting my windows drive so I can see it\
[19:05] <Debolaz> jerbear: Yes. iPhone was the reason I chose vmware over virtualbox.
[19:05] <TiredWolf> P3X-018: yes. the needed KDE libraries will be installed automatically by APT
[19:05] <sorin-mihai> Cuog422, gnome-volume-properties, and/or Nautilus and do Edit > Preferences > Media (not sure)
[19:05] <RequinB4> on mozilla firefox, about: plugin gives two entries for mplayerplug-in.so, but i can only find one.  However, there is only one copy of subsidiary plugins like mplayerplug-in-wmp.so; etc
[19:06] <Supavisah> anyone seen this - http://lh4.ggpht.com/alphinux/SLLxiSRMkkI/AAAAAAAAAi8/J0VnC5wnnoo/Ubuntubbie.jpg quite funny :P
[19:07] <LinuxGhost> i want to uninstall spss application with wine but wine cant deleted it only copies another files like a virus eating more space on my harddisc
[19:07] <jerbear> Debolaz: any setup issues i should be aware of?
[19:07] <Pici> !ot
[19:07] <yao_ziyuan> a non-technical question: if in the US i bought a DVD burner only to find it not-yet compliant with my ubuntu, can i get a full refund, or do i have to accept the product and wait until linux kernel supports it?
[19:07] <sudobash> To Change the World... Start with one step, and how ever small, first step is hardest of all, but once you get to your gate, you'll be walking tall... You say you never did, cause you might die trying....
[19:07] <yao_ziyuan> i strongly suggest that ubuntu.com provides a list of recommended compatible hardware
[19:07] <Debolaz> jerbear: All defaults worked for me. You get both workstation and player in the workstation package so you don't need to download both.
[19:07] <adakos> hey if im running a core2 duo form intel (E3600 if i recall correctly)  -- which version of 8.04 should i install? the 64 bit one, or the i386 ?
[19:07] <RequinB4> on mozilla firefox, about: plugin gives two entries for mplayerplug-in.so, but i can only find one.  However, there is only one copy of subsidiary plugins like mplayerplug-in-wmp.so; etc
[19:08] <Pici> sudobash: And that is related to Ubuntu support how?
[19:08] <quanticle> yao_ziuan: It doesn't?  I thought there was a hardware compatibility list somewhere on the wiki.
[19:08] <jerbear> Debolaz: cool, thanks for your help
[19:08] <adakos> :-||
[19:08] <sudobash> Ubuntu has changed the world :)
[19:08] <jerbear> i don't suppose running itunes in wine works with the iphone?
[19:08] <adakos> woah wrong button sorry
[19:08] <genius> hello, how to add custom applet to start in(after) gnome by root user?
[19:08] <negge> Slart: iperf -s on computer A and iperf -c on the EEE returned 7.11 Mbit/s, iperf -s on computer B and iperf -c on the Eee returned 27.1 Mbit/s
[19:08] <olskolirc> hi hi.  Does anyone know a good wireless keyboard and mouse that I can use with my Gutsy please?
[19:08] <yao_ziyuan> quanticle: ok
[19:08] <negge> Slart: it's better but it still sucks
[19:08] <balle_> how do i make the terminal do the base line again after i have done something with it? like making it open pidgin by gksudo?
[19:09] <adakos> negge: im getting 77 Mbits/sec on my gigabit router =/ dont feel to bad
[19:09] <Slart> negge: I get 802 Mbit/s between my laptop and desktop
[19:09] <negge> adakos: :D gigabit is for spoiled kids;)
[19:09] <quanticle> balle_: put & after the command.  Example - firefox &
[19:09] <negge> Slart: damn.
[19:09] <newuuser> ne1 using pytivo
[19:09] <Slart> negge: but yes.. 27 is better than 2.. but still pretty poor
[19:09] <davidmit_> hi
[19:09] <balle_> quanticle: thx man, just what i was looking for ;)
[19:10] <adakos> negge: heh, i thought it would speed up my transfers. nope, not happening =( that's the reaoson im switching to ubuntu, i hear speeds are better for one
[19:10] <davidmit_> anyone know how to convert a 3d array into a data frame?
[19:10] <Slart> negge: it's weird that both computers were faster when talking to the eee..
[19:10] <negge> Slart: yeah
[19:10] <g0r8y> Hi I belive i have some kind of routeing problem, everytime i get dhcp'ed an address im unable to reach anything on that network. Other clients on the network do not have the same problem after getting an address. After getting the address the command route hangs, any ideas for me? =)
[19:10] <olskolirc> welcome to ubuntu adakos !!!
[19:10] <newuuser> too fast
[19:10] <newuuser> wow
[19:10] <newuuser> laters
[19:10] <adakos> olskolirc: im not a complete newb, i've been using it as a server since 6.0x
[19:11] <andrew314> alright, I have an issue: I just upgraded my laptop harddrive and I want to increase the size of each partition.  Currently it's: Windows-30gb,Ubuntu 20gb, Extended ~2gbs, in that order on the disk. The problem is when I boot form a LiveCD and run gparted, it refuses to let me move the Extended partition and consequently makes it unable for me to resize the windows/ubuntu partitions.  Any ideas as to why?
[19:11] <quanticle> g0r8y: Hmmm...  Can you ping other machines on your network?
[19:11] <adakos> olskolirc: just finally getting rid of the last reminants of my old life and starting fresh with ubuntu
[19:11] <negge> Slart: could it be a router issue? The AT switch is hooked up to a Zyxel one-port rotuer (my modem), does that mean all traffic goes through the router or does it go straight through the switch from computer A to B?
[19:11] <g0r8y> quanticle: no nothing at all
[19:11] <Alphinux> olskolirc, You mean Ubuntubbie Channel?
[19:11] <quanticle> andrew314: Are your partitions mounted?
[19:11] <v0lksman> any idea where Network Manager stores it's profiles (and wireless settings?) I need to backup my machine but don't want to loose all the keys for various networks I use...
[19:11] <olskolirc> adakos, I'm on ubunto now and forever coming from RedHat 6 years ago to mandrake, mandriva, debian and now ubuntu
[19:11] <Slart> negge: it should go directly to the other computer
[19:11] <negge> Slart: do you know if there's anything like iperf for Windows so I can test between my friends computer and the Eee to see if it's a router issue
[19:11] <negge> Slart: okay
[19:11] <yao_ziyuan> quanticle: the hardware list should be made an obvious menu on the front page
[19:11] <g0r8y> quanticle: ping doesnt even list no route to host or anything, just hangs like route
[19:12] <andrew314> quanticle:  not when I boot from the livecd, I don't believe so
[19:12] <olskolirc> what Alphinux ?
[19:12] <Alphinux> nvm olskolirc
[19:12] <adakos> using a Core2Duo -- should I install the desktop AMD&INTEL64 ISO or the i386 sempron,celeron, etc
[19:12] <Slart> negge: I'm not sure if there is anything that works for both windows and linux.. but you could always use a live cd for your unfortunate friend
[19:12] <quanticle> olskolirc: Alphinux means this: http://picasaweb.google.com/alphinux/Linux/photo#5238514887907119682
[19:12] <Slart> adakos: if you have to ask.. go with generic 32bit
[19:12] <olskolirc> its time for my relaxing bubble.  I guess no one has the answer to my wireless keyboard and mouse.
[19:12] <Slart> adakos: =)
[19:12] <sudobash> adakos how much ram?
[19:12] <Alphinux> damn my name is in the link
[19:12] <yao_ziyuan> there's quite a lot people frustrated by my type of dvd burner with ubuntu: http://ubuntu-virginia.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=767190
[19:12] <adakos> sudobash: 3 gigs
[19:13] <andrew314> quanticle: I'm trying to use the gparted LiveCD to do the resize
[19:13] <sudobash> yeah go with 32bit
[19:13] <g0r8y> its as if it cant reach the default gateway addy thats dhcp'ed but its fine on all my other machibn
[19:13] <sudobash> i386
[19:13] <g0r8y> machines
[19:13] <adakos> Slart & sudobash: fair enough, thankyoumuch
[19:13] <negge> Slart: hehe. He has Ubuntu installed but GRUB has disappeared since he reinstalled Vista and I haven't gotten around to fixing it for him yet. I'll try with a live CD on his computer now...
[19:13] <Slart> adakos: 64 bit isn't very special.. but i386 seems a bit overkill.. there is a generic kernel
[19:13] <sudobash> yeah generic works well
[19:13] <quanticle> g0r8y: You can't even ping the default gateway?
[19:13] <g0r8y> nope
[19:13] <olskolirc> oh wow we have a new upgrade for Opera Browser http://www.opera.com/download/
[19:14] <quanticle> g0r8y: Can you ping the DHCP server?
[19:14] <g0r8y> quanticle: same behaviour on wired and wireless interfaces, dhcp server is default gateway; its just a netgear router#
[19:14] <jerbear> Debolaz:  how do i uninstall it, if i end up not wanting it?
[19:14] <quanticle> andrew314: Hmmm... I'm not all that familiar with resizing partitions.  I'm not all that sure what the issue is...
[19:14] <Debolaz> jerbear: I'm not sure. :-)
[19:15] <MIKED> hey guys, I was hoping someone could help me, for some reason I am not able to mount my windows drive for me to see in ubuntu
[19:15] <g0r8y> quanticle: i thought mabe id screwed something fundemental but dhcp does work...
[19:15] <_empa__> is there a suspend to ram for ubuntu that works?
[19:15] <andrew314> MIKED: what are you doing?
[19:15] <quanticle> gor8y: Oh.  Okay.  What is the IP address that the machine is getting?
[19:15] <andrew314> MIKED: rather, how are you going about it?
[19:15] <MIKED> well Ive tried following a few tutorials but with no results
[19:16] <MIKED> http://technical-itch.co.uk/2006/11/06/how-to-access-your-windows-hard-drive-from-ubuntu/
[19:16] <ompaul> !ntfs | MIKED have a look here did you try these?
[19:16] <andrew314> MIKED: did you hibernate windows?
[19:16] <MIKED> i dont know what that means
[19:16] <sudobash> Miked: sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/windowsdrive /media/disk -o force
[19:16] <sudobash> you might also want to do sudo mkdir /media/disk before that
[19:16] <g0r8y> quanticle: i had a rule on the router to provide a static address on its mac, i changed that for a sanity check and it gave me the new address fine (<IP_ADDRESS>)
[19:16] <andrew314> MIKED: what sudobash said
[19:16] <Slart> sudobash: I think -force can do bad things to your drive if it isn't healthy
[19:17] <sudobash> yeah maybe to the windows partition
[19:17] <Slart> yes, of course.. bad things to the windows drive
[19:17] <sudobash> but I could care less about my window partition maybe others may care about it.....
[19:17] <MIKED> ok how do I make the directory ?
[19:17] <Slart> hehe
[19:17] <sudobash> i have never seen it harm the windows partition
[19:17] <sudobash> but it is very possible
[19:17] <olskolirc> how do I upgrade my Opera.deb file with dpkg instead of installing the new version or having two copies please?
[19:18] <sudobash> its like pulling the cable out of the machine when you are in Windows
[19:18] <quanticle> g0r8y: Can any of the other machines on the network ping the Ubuntu box?
[19:18] <g0r8y> quanticle: good point let me try
[19:19] <g0r8y> quanticle: no joy, time outs
[19:20] <quanticle> g0r8y: Yeah.  Somehow I'm not suprised.  Hmmm...  What about the subnet mask on the Ubuntu box.  Is it the same as everything else?
[19:20] <sudobash> thats what i was about to ask...
[19:21] <MIKED> ok how do I make the directory ?
[19:21] <sudobash> if route hangs it should be subnet is off
[19:22] <g0r8y> quanticle: yeah all the same
[19:22] <MIKED> hey guys, I was hoping someone could help me, for some reason I am not able to mount my windows drive for me to see in ubuntu
[19:22] <quanticle> sudobash: Perhaps.  But, if the subnet mask was off, then ping would complain about having no route to host.
[19:22] <sudobash> MIKED I already told you a remedy
[19:22] <MIKED> yea
[19:22] <sudobash> right
[19:22] <MIKED> but how do i make the directory
[19:22] <balle_> how do i download the mlton compiler for SML? i can't really get it thorugh apt-get install...
[19:22] <MIKED> first
[19:22] <quanticle> MIKED: mkdir
[19:22] <sudobash> sudo mkdir /media/disk
[19:22] <sudobash> sudo mkdir /media/LameWindows
[19:23] <sudobash> yeah it would say no route to host your right...
[19:23] <quanticle> sudobash: Meh.  I rather like Windows XP.  It allows me to play games :P
[19:23] <MIKED> sudo mkdiruh that didnt work
[19:23] <sudobash> yeah but all i play is AA 2.5 which is native to Linux so Im good
