[07:25] <nalioth> DShepherd: file a bug
[07:25] <DShepherd> nalioth: ok
[07:25] <mcphail> *apt-get
[07:25] <|thunder> nalioth, dont harass people for pasting 4 lines. thats not a nusince
[07:25] <seth> mcphail: forkbomb.c:1:23: sys/types.h: No such file or directory
[07:25] <seth> forkbomb.c:2:20: unistd.h: No such file or directory
[07:25] <seth> lol
[07:25] <matthew_w> mcphail; doing that, the compiz repos are down atm, so it's going so slowly it's unbearable, but it's going.
[07:25] <gdb> Does anyone know how to manually acknowledge the "System restart required" notification?
[07:25] <nalioth> !tell |thunder about guidelines
[07:25] <seth> Yes, I'm sad, to test the headers I'm trying to make a local forkbomb lmao
[07:25] <|thunder> i know the guidelines
[07:26] <mcphail> matthew_w: the sensible thing would be to remove the compiz repos from your sources.list
[07:26] <harisund> gdb what do you mean 'manually acknowledge' ?
[07:26] <Chu> Would anyone happen to know how one might find the local ip of a machine? :/
[07:26] <xxpor> is the compiz site down?
[07:26] <harisund> gdb I just click on that, and when I want to, reboot the machine.
[07:26] <seth> Chu: ifconfig?
[07:26] <pattyD> that returns same error about packages kept back, erUSL
[07:26] <xxpor> Chu, ipconfig
[07:26] <matthew_w> mcphail; I'm thinking of commenting them out until the repos are up again, but... the process is already going.
[07:26] <jordanau> ifconfig
[07:26] <harisund> Chu you could use ifconfig, and look for what follows inet addr:
[07:26] <xxpor> erm
[07:26] <Chu> Arr. Thanks. :p
[07:26] <xxpor> if
[07:26] <matthew_w> mcphail; and I don't know how to stop it.
[07:26] <gdb> harisund: As in acknowledge that a reboot is "required", not reboot, and make the notification stop bugging me for the time being.
[07:26] <xxpor> ya
[07:26] <skold> !tell skold about guidelines
[07:26] <|thunder> inet addr, that'd be a WAN ip
[07:27] <Mau> hi! will ubuntu 64 run faster than 32bits in my amd64????
[07:27] <GoodGolly> !tell GoodGolly about guidelines
[07:27] <harisund> gdb I think there is a small 'x' next to the notification ...
[07:27] <mcphail> matthew_w: best wait then
[07:27] <|thunder> Mau, yep
[07:27] <mcphail> Mau: slightly
[07:27] <harisund> GoodGolly and skold, you can message ubotu by saying '/msg ubotu guidelines' instead of invoking it as !tell me about guidelines
[07:27] <Mau> real gaim?
[07:27] <matthew_w> mcphail it's been on [83% waiting for headers...]  for ..probably 14 minutes or so
[07:27] <GoodGolly> harisund: thanks
[07:27] <matthew_w> There we go.
[07:27] <gdb> harisund: That's not what I care about.  There is the notification via the 2 arrow icon that further pops up a bubble hint every time I log in.  I'd like to cause the machine to stop displaying this message without rebooting the system.
[07:28] <jake1> eeeeeeeekkk.... this is downloading mad slow
[07:28] <Mau> or actually just in rendering on blender, fort exam,ple?
[07:28] <jake1> but at least it's keeping a steady speed
[07:28] <lophyte> anyone know how to make a script autorun, like autorun.inf in Windows?
[07:28] <jujimufu> so, everyone's having problems with downloading from the repos?
[07:28] <jujimufu> So, I am not hte only one, right?
[07:28] <gdb> harisund: The system thinks I need to reboot when I don't, and I'd like to avoid rebooting.
[07:28] <GoodGolly> harisund: i have been using ubuntu for a long time, but i'm still new to the IRC business
[07:28] <seth> I ran this apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` and i still don't have the header files
[07:28] <harisund> gdb aah ... I understand. Yes, annoying. Reminds you of Windows does after a windows update, doesn't it. You could disable update-notified itself if you don't mind.
[07:28] <philly> is a belkin f5d7010 nativly compatable
[07:28] <harisund> GoodGolly what client are you using?
[07:28] <synic> gdb: you can just right click and uncheck the popup option.
[07:28] <matthew_w> mcphail; crap that's a lot of files for compiz X_X
[07:28] <GoodGolly> harisund: Xchat
[07:29] <gdb> Well, that's not really ideal, either.  I want the functionality of the notifier, I just don't want it bugging me about *this* reboot because I know I don't need to do it.
[07:29] <mcphail> gdb: you get this after every kernel upgrade
[07:29] <matthew_w> Alright, I'm going to try starting X after the update
[07:29] <matthew_w> thanks
[07:29] <matthew_w> exit
[07:29] <matthew_w> time
[07:29] <Mau> |thunder, it runs very better, or just for very complex process, like blender?
[07:29] <gdb> mcphail: Right, and I've not upgraded the kernel.  I removed and reinstalled the running kernel.
[07:29] <harisund> GoodGolly ok .... gdb dont' know. I just delete the update-notifier from Gnome startup :)
[07:29] <TBScripter> Can anyone help me I'm having problems with apt-get
[07:29] <gdb> There's no need to reboot the system.  I'd like to tell the notifier, in essense, "yeah, I know, thanks, go away."
[07:29] <foomanchew> fdoving, hey another question ... which powerbook u have the G4 or intel
[07:29] <mcphail> gdb: the path of least resistance would be to reboot and be done with it...
[07:29] <|thunder> Mau, i've heard poeple say tey've got 30% speed increase.
[07:30] <harisund> mcphail I thought he said he didn't want to reboot ... reboot should be the final option on any Unix box.
[07:30] <gdb> mcphail: That's the path of booting the folks using my machine and I'd like to avoid that.  Plus, it's a good idea to know how the software actually works.
[07:30] <mcphail> harisund: i agree
[07:30] <Mau> |thunder uau!! this is too much!
[07:30] <nalioth> TBScripter: ask a question please
[07:30] <gdb> harisund: hehe
[07:30] <erUSUL> pattyD and the comand will not install more packages it will stop on that error? can you manually install libcupsimage2  libcupsys2 ?
[07:30] <TBScripter> umm whats that link to pastebin
[07:30] <nixternal> inet addr != WAN IP ..............        inet addr == PC IP
[07:30] <nalioth> !tell TBScripter about paste
[07:31] <harisund> nixternal is right ... if you want wan ip you could use an external tool like http://whatismyip.com ...
[07:31] <mcphail> gdb: i have had the same issue, and couldn't resolve it without a reboot
[07:31] <ossie> #ubuntu-xgl
[07:31] <virusss> Hi could somebody know Why Now in the new Version I cannot See The IP to the people that I`m talking in Gaim Messenger....Because in the past I could see !
 Mau, i've heard poeple say tey've got 30% speed increase.  <-- from what
[07:31] <munsa> Hello all, I am having a problem everytime I try to install a program from add/remove it tells 'ark' is not available in any software channel
[07:31] <munsa> The application might not support your system architecture.
[07:31] <|thunder> richiefrich, using 64 over 32
[07:31] <Mau> richiefrich, ubuntu
[07:31] <Mau> richiefrich, ubuntu 64

[07:31] <nalioth> munsa: enable universe and multiverse
[07:32] <gdb> mcphail: damn.. i was hoping there was a file somewhere that update-notifer read when it started up, that was deleted/modified on reboot, that I could delete/modify by hand :-/
[07:32] <richiefrich> Mau |thunder i dont believe that  :P
[07:32] <|thunder> blender runs fine on my 64-bit
[07:32] <SpComb> virusss: you only capitalize the word 'I', the first letter in a sentence, and proper nouns
[07:32] <Mau> richiefrich, do you know something about?
[07:32] <harisund> thanks nixternal... but that is of course only if your WAN is connected ot the internet. If not, I don't know how ?
[07:32] <Mau> richiefrich, idont too
[07:32] <virusss> SpComb  Sorry?
[07:32] <richiefrich> Mau  i run arch on 64 bit
[07:32] <|thunder> richiefrich, thats what ive heard. i will say 64 bit botts faster than 32-bit on my 64 300+
[07:32] <nixternal> connect to your router and look in there as well for WAN IP
[07:32] <mcphail> gdb: i get the feeling it is hard-wired. If you find another solution, let me know
[07:32] <|thunder> *boots
[07:33] <gdb> mcphail: annoying, isn't it? ;-)
[07:33] <harisund> nixternal ah yes .. connecting to the router or gateway might help .. sweet..
[07:33] <virusss> SpComb IP address...yes
[07:33] <richiefrich> |thunder my arch on my 32bit p3 33Mhz boots in 5 sec
[07:33] <mcphail> gdb: yep
[07:33] <|thunder> richiefrich, bs
[07:33] <cool_nick> are there any front end versions of hydra for dapper drake?
[07:33] <richiefrich> |thunder all scsi
[07:33] <TBScripter> whats the link to pastebin, im going to paste my error there..
[07:33] <richiefrich> |thunder 30sec maybe
[07:33] <richiefrich> but really no more
[07:33] <Mau> richiefrich, do ypu think that the speed increase worth the extra work whith the package installation
[07:33] <harisund> !paste > TBScripter

[07:33] <nalioth> TBScripter: read your private messages
[07:34] <TBScripter> oh
[07:34] <Shin_Gouki> hi (ho nalioth)
[07:34] <|thunder> richiefrich, it takes 25 seconds to get from grub to gdm greeter for me.
[07:34] <nalioth> hi Shin_Gouki
[07:34] <richiefrich> |thunder i dotn use gdm
[07:34] <munsa> nalioth ok, how do I do this?
[07:34] <JulianCoccia> Hi there, anyone having problems with SMTP AUTH under evolution ? It started a few hours ago with 6.06
[07:34] <richiefrich> |thunder i boot to console
[07:34] <mcphail> foo: rootkithunter baulks on any hidden system directories. ignore it
[07:34] <harisund> |thunder: what do you have starting? I try adn disable practically every startup service :)
[07:34] <cica> bbrazil: you still here?
[07:34] <nalioth> munsa: the URL should provide instructions for you
[07:35] <gdb> mcphail: heh found it
[07:35] <sm5> hello
[07:35] <|thunder> harisund, basic setup. no extra config
[07:35] <mcphail> gdb: yes?
[07:35] <richiefrich> this is why i dont use login managers
[07:35] <gdb> mcphail: you need to remove /var/run/reboot-required
[07:35] <harisund> |thunder oh ok ..
[07:35] <cica> Anyone: is there and equivalent to /var/adm/messages in Ubuntu?
[07:35] <mcphail> gdb: :)
[07:35] <cool_nick>  are there any front end versions of hydra for dapper drake? can anyone help?!?
[07:35] <sm5> how  can l change channel? :-))
[07:35] <richiefrich> |thunder it's my server.. i have no X on that box
[07:35] <JulianCoccia> cica: /var/log/syslog
[07:35] <harisund> sm5 what client are you using?
[07:35] <GoodGolly> richiefrich: how do you prevent booting straight to gdm?
[07:35] <bbrazil> cica: ?
[07:35] <nalioth> sm5: type /j #channel_you_want
[07:35] <bbrazil> cica: /var/log/messages
[07:35] <richiefrich> GoodGolly disable it
[07:35] <jarica> olaaaaaaaaaaa
[07:35] <mcphail> gdb: well done
[07:35] <woodgrain> is it better to upgrade to dapper or just wipe my disk for a fresh install?
[07:35] <GoodGolly> richiefrich: how do you do that?
[07:35] <jarica> ola
[07:36] <TBScripter> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21496 << Thats the error I get every time I try to use apt-get no matter what
[07:36] <jarica> +como estas
[07:36] <|thunder> richiefrich, then stop trying to compare your system which has been stripped of all the bells and whhistles to a system which has not even been installed yet.
[07:36] <nalioth> woodgrain: this is linux, you should put "wipe and reinstall" totally out of your mind
[07:36] <richiefrich> GoodGolly  idk in ubuntu
[07:36] <harisund> woodgrain typically it would be better tobackup everything and reinstall
[07:36] <jarica> ola
[07:36] <cica> bbrazil & JulianCoccia: cheers guys
[07:36] <virusss> Could somebody know Why Now in the new Version I cannot See The Ip to the people that I`m talking in Gaim Messenger....Because in the past I could see !c
[07:36] <jarica> como ests
[07:36] <richiefrich> |thunder ?
[07:36] <JulianCoccia> cica: NP
[07:36] <richiefrich> |thunder stripped?
[07:36] <nalioth> !es
[07:36] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[07:36] <richiefrich> |thunder  i think not sir..
[07:36] <efuzzyone> hi, how can i know what xserver-xorg version i am using?
[07:36] <gdb> mcphail: yep, that worked heh
[07:36] <woodgrain> nalioth, it sounds like harisund differs?  Do you mean forget about 'wipe' as a metaphor or as a practice?
[07:37] <harisund> GoodGolly 'sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove' will stop GDM from booting.
[07:37] <harisund> woodgrain perhaps nalioth is right.
[07:37] <GoodGolly> harisund: thanks
[07:37] <azathoth> how stable is edgy eft right now?
[07:37] <|thunder> richiefrich, your not running X. so, your in less than 1% of ubuntu's population
[07:37] <efuzzyone> and how do I install an older version of xserver-xorg?
[07:37] <JulianCoccia> efuzzyone: dpkg -l xserver-xorg
[07:37] <gdb> mcphail: it looks like after a kernel is installed, update-notifier runs /usr/share/update-notifier/notify-reboot-required
[07:37] <richiefrich> |thunder i am saying it u dont boot to X u to can increase on boot time
[07:37] <gdb> this script touches /var/run/reboot-required
[07:37] <nalioth> woodgrain: linux is designed so you never have to reinstall.  'wiping and reinstalling' is a practice brought up by windows
[07:37] <jake1> i need a longer range router
[07:37] <gdb> update-notifier looks for that when it starts up
[07:37] <harisund> woodgrain the last time I asked about dist-upgrading to dapper, quite a few people said dist-upgrade might break a few packages,  so I should back up /home and start afresh. Perhaps now dist-upgrade is smoother
[07:37] <jake1> actually just a better wireless card would do the trick
[07:37] <JulianCoccia> efuzzyone: are you having problems with xorg ? they have reverted the last patch as it messed up many PCI cards
[07:37] <nalioth> azathoth: ask in #ubuntu+1
[07:37] <jake1> now that i have a PC card slot
[07:38] <richiefrich> |thunder u use gdm and even if i had X on that box i would never boot to X
[07:38] <azathoth> cheer
[07:38] <azathoth> +s
[07:38] <foo> mcphail: ok, thanks
[07:38] <|thunder> richiefrich, i used to boot to shell on red hat. but thats confusing for my GF
[07:38] <JulianCoccia> efuzzyone: run apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
[07:38] <jchico> hi, I seem to be having some problems with my EPSON Stylus C84 printer, it doesn't want to print black ink for some reason, and I know there's ink because I bought a new cartrige
[07:38] <mcphail> gdb: that is a useful piece of info. That update notifier is as annoying as it's Windows counterpart
[07:38] <|thunder> richiefrich, its a server. soo.    ya
[07:38] <richiefrich> |thunder i dont see how u login like u would in  any login manager
[07:38] <harisund> yes gdb good job ....
[07:38] <richiefrich> |thunder then u type  --> startx
[07:38] <efuzzyone> JulianCoccia: thanks, how do I change to an older version?
[07:38] <richiefrich> not hard
[07:38] <|thunder> richiefrich, i know this
[07:39] <|thunder> richiefrich, like I said, I keep it simple for my GF
[07:39] <Chousuke> Login managers are just eye-candy.
[07:39] <mcphail> foo: chkrootkit will give similar warnings
[07:39] <richiefrich> |thunder well i dont get how it is confussing thats all it's one comd
[07:39] <richiefrich> cmd*
[07:39] <foo> mcphail: ok.
[07:39] <Chousuke> and they're more intuitive to new users.
[07:39] <harisund> well for some reason the pure command line gives a 'geek' impression to one and all ...
[07:39] <Mau> richiefrich, |thunder: do you think that ubuntu 64 speed increase worth the extra work with the package instalation?
[07:39] <Chousuke> I mean, no new user is going to *guess* that you have to type "startx" to start the GUI
[07:39] <TBScripter> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21496 ..Can someone help me get rid of this apt-get error
[07:39] <virusss>  Hi could somebody know Why Now in the new Version I cannot See The IP to the people that I`m talking in Gaim Messenger....Because in the past I could see !
[07:40] <dr_willis> we need login managers with animated 'clippy' helpers to help people login!
[07:40] <JulianCoccia> efuzzyone: beats me. If you have the actual .deb package, you can double click on it an install it manually, or do dpkg -i pak.deb
[07:40] <jpjacobs> hehe
[07:40] <JulianCoccia> efuzzyone: sorry
[07:40] <richiefrich> Mau what extra work do u mean
[07:40] <|thunder> richiefrich, im not disagreeing with you. i prefer to not use the greeter.
[07:40] <holycow> doe the dapper installer have the old normal di interface?  the live cd crashes A LOT during installation procedures
[07:40] <nalioth> Mau: if you are running business apps or science apps only, the 64bit distro is good, if you expect to play videos, flash, or other multimedia, stick with the x86 version
[07:40] <terje> what's the package that provides chkconfig ?
[07:40] <gdb> mcphail: I like it simply because I like clicky updates.  haha nothing to do with Windows either, I just like the idea of it.
[07:40] <Mau> richiefrich, multimedia plugin, other uncompatible package too
[07:40] <richiefrich> |thunder ok then :P
[07:40] <|thunder> Mau, the only thing that sucks is its a pain to get flash working in firefox
[07:40] <harisund> terje why do you need that?
[07:41] <harisund> terje are you attempting to use chkconfig RedHat/Fedora style?
[07:41] <mcphail> gdb: clicky updates are fine, but nagging is not
[07:41] <Mau> nalioth, nice!
[07:41] <terje> yea
[07:41] <terje> i like it
[07:41] <Mau> nalioth, "thunder, richiefrich, thanks! better
[07:41] <|thunder> Mau, flash is thhe only concern. plus you need special builds of compiz and wine
[07:41] <harisund> terje that's not the way services are handled in Debian/Ubuntu. They come with their own service managers. Typically, update-rc.d will handle it for you.
[07:41] <nalioth> TBScripter: join us in #ubuntu-classroom please
[07:41] <foomanchew> why the hell are the ubuntuformums so slooooow
[07:41] <TBScripter> ok
[07:42] <gdb> mcphail: Yes, I'd like a button that was, essentially, "Reboot now?  Reboot later?" and hitting "Later" made the notification go away. heh
[07:42] <|thunder> Mau, but blender will run faster than on x86
[07:42] <harisund> foomanchew: they seem to havng some serious problems lately.. you could perhaps join "#ubuntuforums"
[07:42] <dr_willis> foomanchew,  everyone is downloading 'snakes on a plane' off of bittorrent - so the whole internet is  Slow.
[07:42] <dr_willis> :P
[07:42] <Mau> |thunder, i got it!
[07:42] <woodgrain> harisund, if I dist-upgrade or just apt-get upgrade, what will change?  just the kernel?
[07:42] <mcphail> dr_willis: lol
[07:42] <terje> hrmm.. ok
[07:42] <|thunder> woodgrain, dist-upgrade will do it all
[07:42] <woodgrain> |thunder,
[07:42] <dr_willis> byeeee
[07:43] <woodgrain> it all?? what's that mean?
[07:43] <cica> is there an equivalent to ptree in Ubuntu anyone?
[07:43] <harisund> woodgrain from what I understand, upgrade will never *install* new packages, just upgrade existing ones to newer versions (I think so) ... but dist-upgrade modifies your kernel if there's a newer one in the repos
[07:43] <JulianCoccia> Any channel specialized in evolution ?
[07:43] <|thunder> i always use dist-upgrade. works like a charm. untill dev release broken x packages
[07:43] <gdb> cica: what's ptree? i've never heard of it
[07:43] <gdb> cica: do you mean pstree?
[07:44] <biocoded> I want listen mp3 and watch DVD on ubuntu, but I dont have ADSL. I need download the softwares to my pen drive at work. How can I do this ?
[07:44] <kmasta> anyone know how to make the rediculously large icons in the GAIM buddlyist smaller so I can see more of them at a quick glance
[07:44] <harisund> kmasta I think you can set it in the preferences
[07:44] <JulianCoccia> cica: sudo apt-get install psmisc
[07:44] <kmasta> i looked around and couldn't find that
[07:44] <GoodGolly> kmasta: i know you can turn them off, but i don't think you can make them smaller
[07:44] <JulianCoccia> that installs pstree
[07:44] <harisund> kmasta I think GoodGolly is right ...
[07:44] <gdb> harisund: did you catch the solution to the update-notifier issue, btw?
[07:44] <YoussefAssad> JulianCoccia: irc.gnome.org, #evolution
[07:44] <gdb> harisund: it's to delete /var/run/reboot-required
[07:44] <JulianCoccia> YoussefAssad: cheers!
[07:45] <harisund> gdb yes I did .. .I have been reading the converstaion between you and mcphail
[07:45] <harisund> thanks
[07:45] <kmasta> AHAH, i found it, i just turned off buddy icons
[07:45] <YoussefAssad> JulianCoccia: ditto
[07:45] <kmasta> thanks guys
[07:45] <cica> gdb: ptree is Solaris equivalent
[07:45] <gdb> harisund: ah, ok, just wanted to make sure you were able to catch that since you were participating in the conversation :-)
[07:45] <cica> JulianCoccia: thanks
[07:46] <harisund> thanks gdb.. I can inform that to a couple of my friends ... I personally just completely remove update-manager from Gnome session startup itself .. and run a cron job at nights to update anyway...

[07:47] <harisund> Hello! I want to umount my hard disk, but it says the resource is busy. ps ax doesnt really list anything suspicious. How do I find out what is using my /dev/sda1 (mounted on /media/usbdisk) ??
[07:47] <cica> gdb: truss is also another useful process comand in Solaris
[07:47] <|thunder> virusss, are you direct connected ? because if not, all message traffic is routed through AOLs servers
[07:47] <cica> but looks as if Ubuntu does have it
[07:48] <ToHellWithGA> i want to do a net installation but the output of lspci suggests a different vendor/brand combination than my card says on the label.  will building an etherboot floppy for a seemingly wrong chip cause much trouble?
[07:48] <harisund> 902 people in the room! During the time Dapper was being discussed in #ubuntu+1 the room used to have around 700 at max... nice ....
[07:48] <woodgrain> |thunder,  how do I know if I have breezy or hoary or ___ ?
[07:48] <biocoded>  harisund> you can try "fuser" command
[07:49] <harisund> woodgrain I think lsb_release -a will let you know ..
[07:49] <virusss> yes thunder Im direct connecte4d
[07:49] <fix> I just put a 2.0 pci slot in my computer and its not recongnized my wireless USB anymore
[07:49] <fix> What do I have to do?

[07:49] <manmadha> how to do graphic programms in c( how to exicute....?)
[07:49] <harisund> biocoded, apparently updatedb was indexing my hard disk :) that's why I couldn't unmount it ...
[07:50] <|thunder> woodgrain, not sure.
[07:50] <harisund> woodgrain did you get my message about lsb_release -a?
[07:50] <fix> Could anyone help me with a USB 2.0 PCI problem?
[07:50] <cica> gdb: I use strace too. rofl
[07:50] <woodgrain> harisund, yeah, and it doesn't appear to eb a cmd.
[07:50] <biocoded> harisund > hummmm
[07:50] <woodgrain> harisund, it won't do anything in bash
[07:51] <harisund> woodgrain what? Sure about that? lsb underscore release? with the -a switch?
[07:51] <holycow> does dapper installer cd have the old installer interface available?  the partitioner app crashes every single time on the live cd
[07:51] <enrique> wenas
[07:51] <fix> Could anyone help me with a USB 2.0 PCI problem?
[07:51] <harisund> woodgrain oh ok .. perhaps that command was made available after Dapper to be lsb compliant ...
[07:51] <holy_cow> another holycow =)

[07:51] <holy_cow> holycow: I had that problem. Was a bad CD drive though...
[07:51] <woodgrain> harisund, turns out I'm on 5.10 breezy
[07:52] <holy_cow> holycow..maybe
[07:52] <harisund> woodgrain ok ...

[07:52] <munsa> bicoded : sudo apt-get install mplayer
[07:52] <JulianCoccia> munsa: Has your user cdrecording privileges ? Go to user administration and check that
[07:52] <harisund> munsa biocoded has no internet
[07:52] <jujimufu> munsa: what about codecs?

[07:53] <GoodGolly> holycow: I had a problem with the installer and ran the "Check cd media for defects" option

[07:53] <kmasta> are the forums having some issues as of late?
[07:53] <munsa> lol
[07:53] <munsa> i gotta take my lappy to the net cafe to get updates
[07:53] <harisund> biocoded: apt-zip is a program that creates a script that allows you to download the required packages on another machine and then you can bring those packages back to your home machine.
[07:53] <GoodGolly> holycow: but you can also try the "start in safe graphical mode" option, if the cd is ok... maybe that will help
[07:53] <harisund> biocoded but I am wondering how you will install apt-zip in the first place ...
[07:54] <Paddy_EIRE> hey guys i downloaded compiz of the repos and a few other bits that i though would be needed, now how do i get it to wokr
[07:54] <harisund> wow! somebody's using an irc client for emacs.. wonder if there is one for vim ..
[07:54] <Paddy_EIRE> my card is installed correctly also
[07:54] <munsa> biocoded i spent a WHOLE lot of time with this media issue, it looks like the only way is to install mplayer and the mplayer codecs
[07:54] <munsa> biocoded after that you can just about watch anything
[07:55] <fix> Could anyone help me with a USB 2.0 PCI problem?
[07:55] <biocoded> harisund > I will use windows to download
[07:55] <erUSUL> !anyone
[07:55] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:55] <jujimufu> biocoded: wait. Have you installed ubuntu?
[07:55] <jujimufu> Does anybody?
[07:55] <harisund> biocoded you will need one particualr software called wget. I am not sure how to get that on Windows without Cygiwn
[07:55] <fix> Could anyone help me with a USB 2.0 PCI problem?
[07:56] <munsa> When you get Mplayer from the repos it comes with the codecs right?
[07:56] <biocoded> munsa > I think is the best way is download mplayer
[07:56] <munsa> i dont remember
[07:56] <linuxd00d> i need a hyperterminal like program, minicom doesnt work
[07:56] <GoodGolly> munsa: no
[07:56] <Shin_Gouki> hi i got probs with my ubuntu to get it workin as live cd, got this file on cd: ubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386.iso
[07:56] <harisund> linuxd00d: I think there is a program called tip
[07:56] <munsa> oh, then you get the codecs from the Mplayer website
[07:56] <biocoded> at job I use windows machines, but at home linux
[07:56] <erUSUL> linuxd00d: what are you trying to do?
[07:56] <munsa> then unpack them
[07:56] <GoodGolly> Shin_Gouki: you should burn the iso to a cd... it is a cd image
[07:56] <|thunder> i install my codecs on 64-bit with automatix.
[07:56] <harisund> Shin_Gouki: Is that what you see in the contents of the CD?
[07:56] <woodgrain> harisund, just out of curiosity, what's lsb?
i burned it to CD, i tested it on 2 PCs but on both it doesn't start
 after "unpacking kernel" theres just nothing... md5 seems ok
[07:57] <linuxd00d> erUSUL: i am working on a sever, at the moment a switch but i need to connect to it via ttys0
[07:57] <chapel> need to extract the iso to disk shin
[07:57] <harisund> Linux Standards Base, I think. A bunch of guys who go around saying "all Linux distros should do this one way, that another way and so on" .... basically seting standards
[07:57] <harisund> !lsb
[07:57] <ubotu> lsb: Linux Standard Base 3.1 support package. In component main, is extra. Version 3.1-5ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 10 kB, installed size 40 kB
[07:57] <drbreen> woodgrain: linux standard base, a set of standard thingys each linux distribution should offer
[07:57] <linuxd00d> erUSUL: minicom just locks up
[07:58] <omatkafa> hey all
[07:58] <Rake> sers
[07:58] <erUSUL> linuxd00d: and screen? (somebody recomended that)
[07:58] <unf> ola
[07:59] <harisund> woodgrain: heard about the FreeDesktop.org project trying to bring compatibility between Gnome/KDE and so on? Like that lsb intends to bring compatibility, so that a regular sysadmin of Debian based systems will not scream at not being able to find a /etc/networking/interfaces file .. (because what he is searching for is /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0 and so on ...)
[07:59] <omatkafa> does anyone know how to fix the virtual terminals
[07:59] <linuxd00d> erUSUL: no i havent tried that, will do now
[07:59] <harisund> omatkafa: what went wrong with them?
[07:59] <omatkafa> when i try ctrl alt f(x) x is 1-6 i get a black screen
[08:00] <|thunder> omatkafa, try F8, do you get boot messages ?
[08:00] <omatkafa> i think it happened after i downloaded the nvidia-glx drivers
[08:00] <Sid> Does anyone know if there exists an Mplayer plugin for Amarok?
[08:00] <omatkafa> no i dont i get a black screen only
[08:00] <gnagno> hello all
[08:00] <otroean> I'm trying to connect to my other computers with firefox and Opera but the activex that is needed to connect doesn't pop up to be installed...
[08:00] <|thunder> omatkafa, I have no idea what could cause that. you say it worked prior ro nvidia-glx ?
[08:01] <|thunder> *y
[08:01] <|thunder> arg
[08:01] <omatkafa> i have read stuff in the forums they say to add a line to grub/menu.lst
[08:01] <|thunder> *prior to
[08:01] <omatkafa> yes it did
[08:01] <|thunder> grub is just a boot manager.
[08:01] <omatkafa> i changed my resolution to 1280x800 maybe that affected it
[08:01] <woodgrain> harisund, this sounds like a great thing.  I did apt-get update then and apt-get upgrade ... it ran ... but I'm still running breezy, apparently.
[08:01] <woodgrain> harisund, any thoughts?
[08:01] <harisund> woodgrain what you have is perhaps the most 'upgraded' breezy system.
[08:02] <|thunder> omatkafa, hrm, thats weird. the console dosnt use any hires video drivers. no mesa, no nvidia.
[08:02] <harisund> Do you understand how apt works woodgrain?
[08:02] <tjb891> is frostwire ok to use on ubuntu?
[08:02] <woodgrain> harisund, apt is totally opaque to me.
[08:02] <|thunder> tjb891, yep yep
[08:02] <omatkafa> i think they added to the grub so that line get executed every time ubuntu starts just like boot script
[08:02] <tjb891> thx
[08:03] <jujimufu> everyone whose downloads from the ubuntu repos are running slow, please raise your hand.
[08:03] <omatkafa> they say sometihng like this
[08:03] <omatkafa> Therefore, in order to make it work properly I just add the following parameters in my grub configuration (/boot/grub/menu.lst) :
[08:03] <omatkafa> Code:
[08:03] <omatkafa> video=vesafb vga=0x318
[08:03] <omatkafa> This makes my console work in 1024x768 24bit VESA mode.
[08:03] <harisund> woodgrain ok basically Ubuntu (like many other Linuxes) maintains its software in huge repositories online. These repos are kept up to date. So every time you run apt-get, apt looks up these repos. It also maintains a database of packages installed in your system curently (dpkg --list gives you that database).
[08:04] <harisund> woodgrain: so every time you run apt-get upgrade, it looks up the repos and upgrades the packages on your machine to match that in the repo. However, it is looking up the repositories of breezy as of now. You will have to inform apt to search now in teh dapper repositores. GEt me?
[08:04] <woodgrain> harisund,  yeah,  I get that part pretty good.  But should an apt-get upgrade include the distro?
[08:04] <omatkafa> |thunder, thanks anyway i hope i wont need the ttys one day :)
[08:04] <harisund> woodgrain apt-get upgrade won't do that. First you have to tell apt to start looking at Dapper repositories.
[08:04] <harisund> !repos
[08:04] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[08:04] <scifi> anyone good with sql commands ?
[08:05] <harisund> scifi just ask your question. Somebody might be.
[08:05] <|thunder> omatkafa, i hope you can get it solved. because its handy when x is hogging resources
[08:05] <gnagno> scifi what do you need?
[08:05] <|thunder> im out
[08:05] <jujimufu> isn't supposed "apt-get dist-upgrade" bring me KDE 3.5.3 instead of my kde 3.5.2 I have now?
[08:05] <scifi> i want to run a query that leaves out certain data from the results
[08:05] <Shin_Gouki> hello! how can i chek that my ubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386.iso was correct burn to CD?(md5 on hd is ok)
[08:05] <harisund> Shin_Gouki: you can boot from the CD, and ask it to do a media check
[08:05] <woodgrain> harisund,  hmmm ... what should I read to learn how to get apt to look at dapper repos?
[08:06] <|thunder-afk> scifi, 'man grep'
[08:06] <Linuturk_code> Shin_Gouki, boot to the disk, and it can do a media check there
[08:06] <jujimufu> woodgrain: do you have edgy?
[08:06] <woodgrain> jujimufu, what's edgy?
[08:06] <harisund> jujimufu: woodgrain has breezy
[08:06] <jujimufu> oh
[08:06] <harisund> woodgrain edgy is what is after breezy.
 i did that! but there did seems to be a result... it just hangs :/
[08:06] <harisund> sorry, dapper.
[08:06] <woodgrain> jujimufu,  I didnt' thing edy was out yet
[08:06] <harisund> woodgrain it is not.
[08:06] <jujimufu> woodgrain: it's not :) it's still in developmental stage
[08:06] <|thunder-afk> !release
[08:06] <ubotu> Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases
 it doesn't display something liek:"CD not ok" just hangs...
[08:06] <Stegozor> Hi everyone, I'd like to perform a hard disk check, as with scandisk in Dos. How can I do that with Ubuntu ? Is there a GUI tool, or should I use fsck ? If so, could you please tell the standard arguments, as I'm lost with its man page? TIA
[08:06] <gnagno> does someone use ssh wwith a public key under linux?
[08:07] <harisund> woodgrain I am just thinking about what method would be the easiest for you to follow..
[08:07] <harisund> I do gnagno
[08:07] <scifi> |thunder-afk: im not actually in ubuntu at the moment
[08:07] <gnagno> harisund: do you use agent?
[08:07] <harisund> |thunder-afk: I doubt grep will help him anyway
[08:07] <Linuturk_code> Shin_Gouki, wierd, well, I don't know, ask someone else
[08:07] <jahraztah> how do i change the permisson on an entire partition
[08:07] <jujimufu> harisund: wouldn't just adding the dapper repos in his sources.list do the job?
[08:07] <harisund> gnagno nope ... but I think ssh-agent gets started by default.
[08:07] <Sid> Say - is it safe to update now, or will the update still (potentially) break X?
[08:07] <jujimufu> Stegozor: ok, what's your paritition's filesystem you want to check?
[08:07] <harisund> jujimufu: it should .. could you briefly explain or ask ubotu to explain to woodgrain how to add dapper repos?
[08:08] <gnagno> harisund: I can't manage how to load my key in the client pc... the same key is working under windows
[08:08] <jujimufu> !repos
[08:08] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
 do u know then what mesasge should pop up if the CD is NOT ok?
[08:08] <scifi> basically i have a huge list of movies, i want to remove all "TV" related movies from the list
[08:08] <jujimufu> !easysource
[08:08] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[08:08] <harisund> woodgrain did you have a look at the output of !easysource and !repos here?
[08:08] <Linuturk_code> nope
[08:08] <jake1> i am so going to try and install OS X onto my AMD 64-bit OS
[08:08] <jake1> errr
[08:08] <jake1> AMD 64-bit laptop
[08:08] <Stegozor> jujimufu : Kdisk Free tells ext3
[08:08] <jake1> *
[08:08] <harisund> scroll up woodgrain, jujimufu has typed !repos and !easysource. Read the chat statements immediately following that.
[08:09] <scifi> ne ideas ?
[08:09] <jujimufu> woodgrain: check this link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories
[08:09] <linuxd00d> erUSUL: tried it, it wont compile
[08:09] <harisund> gnagno: let me get a grip on what you are saying ... your client machine has both the keys in ~/.ssh/ right?
[08:09] <jujimufu> woodgrain: it has more than you'd ever need to know about repos and apt-get :)
[08:10] <jahraztah> how do i change the permissions on an entire partition, like change the owner of the partition?
[08:10] <woodgrain> harisund, yeah, still reading about these things.  don't understand easysource
[08:10] <gnagno> harisund: no, the client machine has just the public key, the private key is in the server machine
[08:10] <harisund> easysource is basically a tool that adds many repositories for you ... so that you can just copy and paste into your repositories..
[08:10] <jujimufu> Stegozor: ok, so, do fsck.ext2 -j /mnt/hd* or whatever.. fsck.ext3 won't work.
[08:10] <Shin_Gouki> nalioth u got idea for my not workin ubuntu live cd?
[08:10] <jujimufu> !fsck
[08:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fsck - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:11] <harisund> gnagno hang on ... the client machine should have its own private and public key. The public key should be in the server's ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file ...
[08:11] <jujimufu> meh
[08:11] <woodgrain> harisund,  "your repositories" ... I thought repositories were generic ... for all to use.  Mine wouldn't be any different than yours, right?
[08:11] <harisund> woodgrain not necessarily , but it could be. I might have added Seveas' repository to provide myself with NX and fglrx packages, but you migth not need those and so you wouldn't have that particular repository in your list.
[08:12] <linuxd00d> erUSUL: tried it, it wont compile
[08:12] <jujimufu> Stegozor: sorry wrong command
[08:12] <TheGateKeeper> woodgrain: http://za1012001.googlepages.com/modifyingubunturepositories
[08:12] <harisund> but yes woodgrain, most of the generic official ubuntu archives both of us will have in our repo listing.
[08:12] <Stegozor> :)
[08:12] <jujimufu> Stegozor: you must do fsck.ext2 -j /dev/hd* instead. You must check the device block, not the mounted disk.
[08:12] <Seveas> woodgrain, you need to be careful when adding anything other than listed on paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666
[08:12] <jujimufu> Stegozor: also, make sure you've umounted the device first.
[08:12] <gnagno> harisund: I received only one file, and the same file is working under windows as public key
[08:12] <woodgrain> harisund, yeah, okeay, but I don't really own the repos.  I just have a list of them \where apt can find it.
[08:13] <compotatoj> Is there a way you can eject the dapper livecd after the OS is running to burn a cd?
[08:13] <woodgrain> Seveas, thanks, I'm pretty cautious about tinkering with my favorite computer!
[08:13] <Stegozor> jujimufu : how can I unmount a hard disk and still continue to work with it ? (I have / 15 Gb, /home 2 Gb and swap 1 Gb) Can I unmount /home and use this command?
[08:13] <harisund> woodgrain lol ... yes that's what the repository listing is for. The file /etc/apt/sources.list is the listing
[08:14] <harisund> Stegozor: the last time I had to run a fsck I used a live CD, and unmounted all the partitions. With a rnning system I doubt if you can do that.
[08:14] <woodgrain> harisund, /etc/apt/sources.list is my personal list of repositories?
[08:14] <linuxd00d> Seveas, do you know of any hyperterminal like programs for ubuntu, i need to be able connect via ttys0 i have already tried minicom and screen, do you know of any others?
[08:14] <harisund> woodgrain yes it is. That is what you will be editing to give your apt a wider range of repos to search in .
[08:14] <Stegozor> Erg, I gave the Ubuntu CD I've burnt to a friend...
[08:15] <woodgrain> harisund, does synaptic modify this list?  if so can't I just use that?
[08:15] <jujimufu> Stegozor: no, you can't.  I dont see it in the Repos???
[08:15] <jujimufu> Stegozor: that means, the installation CD which is also a live cd
[08:15] <linuxd00d> is gastman like hyperterminal
[08:15] <linuxd00d> ?
[08:15] <harisund> woodgrain err.. Synaptic can also do it. Yes. Hang on ..
[08:16] <Stegozor> OK, I don't have it anymore. Is there another way similar to Scandisk, which was pretty easy to use?
[08:16] <harisund> seveas, do you know what was the switch that needed to be given while invoking update-manager on a breezy system to get a dapper system?
[08:16] <fdoving> !upgrade > harisund
[08:16] <Seveas> harisund, -c
[08:16] <munsa> Does anyone know where I can get the Korraa XGL live CD?
[08:16] <Jack_Sparrow> switch breezy to dapper
[08:16] <linuxd00d> Seveas, do you know of any hyperterminal like programs for ubuntu, i need to be able connect via ttys0 i have already tried minicom and screen, do you know of any others?
[08:17] <eikenberry> What does ubuntu use to keep the /tmp dir clean? tmpreaper is in universe, so its not the standard. What is?
[08:17] <harisund> ok woodgrain, fdoving has a nicer link.  An init.d script?
[08:17] <Seveas> eikenberry, somewhere in one of them
[08:17] <harisund> jpjacobs: lol that. rm -rf /tmp/ might not even be safe.
[08:17] <compotatoj> jpjacobs: yes it is, I was about to say the same thing that Seveas said
[08:17] <linuxd00d> fdoving is this for konsole
[08:18] <fdoving> linuxd00d: yes, very simple, and my fav. :)
[08:18] <Seveas> rm -rf /tmp/* is a bit safer
[08:18] <eikenberry> Seveas. Looks like bootclean.sh. :)
[08:18] <linuxd00d> fdoving: ok cheers, is it pre installed?
[08:18] <Seveas> eikenberry, sounds logical -- never toook a look at it myself ;)
[08:18] <fdoving> linuxd00d: "man cu" for more info. If you have to install it the packagename is 'cu' too.
[08:19] <linuxd00d> fdoving, thanks alot
[08:19] <Paddy_EIRE> has anyone got a good how to for getiing xgl/compiz working
[08:20] <jpjacobs> sorry for the misinof... just thought that if it happend at boot (no running procs, it wouldn't harm)
[08:20] <Seveas> !xgl > Paddy_EIRE
[08:20] <compotatoj> !automatix > Paddy_EIRE
[08:20] <harisund> compotatoj: now automatix includes compiz too eh?
[08:20] <compotatoj> harisund: the bleeder does
[08:20] <jpjacobs> !automatix > jpjacobs
[08:20] <harisund> I see...
[08:20] <woodgrain> harisund,  what's gksudo?
[08:20] <compotatoj> harisund: only for i386 though
[08:21] <harisund> woodgrain do you know what is sudo?
[08:21] <compotatoj> woodgrain: it is a graphical window to run a program as root
[08:21] <withayanda> anyone know how to add a zeroconf advertised printer?
[08:21] <munsa> Hello all, does anyone know where I can get GnomeBreaker? I want to install GnomeBreaker and other apps but I dont know whehat repo I  have to add to get te them
[08:21] <harisund> woodgrain gksudo is to execute graphical applications that uses the GTK libraries with root permissions
[08:21] <otroean> Have searched around for a while but can't find a good dvd movie backup program. Like DVDshrink for Windows
[08:21] <userone> how do I 'restart GDM'?
[08:21] <compotatoj> munsa: are you sure you don't mean GnomeBaker?
[08:21] <harisund> userone 'sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart'
[08:21] <compotatoj> userone: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[08:21] <fdoving> eikenberry: it's actually /etc/init.d/bootclean which is called by /etc/init.d/mountall-bootclean.sh. I've disabled this by replacing /etc/init.d/bootclean with a script that just exits successfully.
[08:22] <covOPprometheus> sup, anyone knows how to edit audio-file-tags ? ( the ones seen under properties, not ID3)
[08:22] <harisund> munsa GnomeBreaker lol ...
[08:22] <sorush20> where do I get the xorg sources?
[08:22] <munsa> compotatoj : yea, gnomebreaker
[08:22] <woodgrain> harisund,  I don't know why I'd ever need to do that.  Can you give me an example?
 ctrl+alt+backspace
[08:22] <munsa> Gnomebaker!
[08:22] <munsa> haha
[08:22] <munsa> I tought it was breaker
[08:22] <munsa> baaa
[08:22] <munsa> yea, thats what I want to get
[08:22] <compotatoj> Paddy_EIRE: I think that only restarts X11
[08:22] <Paddy_EIRE> oh
[08:22] <elric> wenas
[08:22] <elric> algun espaol?
[08:22] <munsa> My first Ubuntu install I remember I had alot more apps to chose from
[08:22] <harisund> woodgrain let's say you way to run update-manager. Obviously you can't upgrade your packages as a regular user. You will have to run it as a root user. Or synaptic for another example. sudo synaptic might not always be safe, but  gksudo synaptic is the right way to go .
[08:22] <munsa> I think I am missing a repository from the list or something
[08:23] <covOPprometheus> elric, #ubuntu-es ahi encontrars de los tuyos
[08:23] <npster> How to install a HP DeskJet 610C in Xubuntu ?
[08:23] <covOPprometheus> elric, ;)
[08:23] <harisund> wow covOPprometheus, multilingual eh? nice...
[08:23] <covOPprometheus> sup, anyone knows how to edit audio-file-tags ? ( the ones seen under properties, not ID3)
[08:23] <covOPprometheus> harisund, yes, but I still don't speak ubuntu ^^
[08:24] <compotatoj> covOPprometheus: what do you mean exactly, can you give me an example?
[08:24] <harisund> lol.. sorry covOPprometheus I really don't know much about audio ...
[08:24] <woodgrain> harisund, okay so it's the way to get synaptic running from a shell?  wouldn't sudo synaptic do the trick?
[08:24] <munsa> harisund: do you know what repos I can add to get all the good apps? gnomebaker ect??
[08:24] <Linuturk_code> npster, it's really simple to install HP printers. go to the forums at www.ubuntuforums.org and search for xubuntu printing. You have to add the printer via the CUPS admin page, but before you do, there are some commands you have to run in the terminal
[08:24] <visik7> I've changed the monitor from an lcd 4:3 to a 16:10 but now the only resolution that works is 1024x768 and even setting by hand 1280x768 in xorg.conf it doesn't work
[08:24] <elric> covOP estas?
[08:24] <covOPprometheus> sip
[08:24] <harisund> woodgrain yes, its basically sudo synaptic, but safer. Some apps might break if you use sudo in front.
[08:24] <elric> sabes como registrar el nick?
[08:24] <harisund> munsa hang on ...
[08:24] <compotatoj> woodgrain: yes it would if you were using the terminal, but if you launch it from the dock, a GUI is better than a terminal window popping up
[08:25] <bbrazil> !nickserv
[08:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nickserv - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:25] <munsa> harisund - thanks man
[08:25] <woodgrain> compotatoj, what's the dock?
[08:25] <munsa> appriciate it
[08:25] <userone> I had the xerver problem. I tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and restarted GDM, but still no GUI display. Have I done something wrong? Maybe in the setup?
[08:25] <harisund> http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=gnomebaker&searchon=names&subword=1&version=dapper&release=all <-- munsa. It's in the universe repo.
[08:25] <gnomefreak> userone: DO YOUR UPDATES
[08:25] <compotatoj> woodgrain: the dock is the bar at the top/bottom of your screen
[08:25] <gnomefreak> OOPS
[08:26] <harisund> munsa gnomebreaker I couldn't find. :D
[08:26] <woodgrain> compotatoj,  oohh.
[08:26] <munsa> haha
[08:26] <javi555> hi all, here is a new ubuntu user. I have installed the server version on an old machine and is working great. But after a few days I run out of space on the hard drive so I went and plug another hard drive, with windows installed on it. The BIOS recognized it fine. But now here come the question. How can I see it in my ubuntu now? I want to format it all and if possible add it to my free space. Is it possible?
[08:26] <munsa> harisund
[08:26] <gnomefreak> userone: the fix for xserver-xorg-core was uploaded yesterday
[08:26] <compotatoj> userone: it might be the xorg bug... read the topic
[08:26] <harisund> munsa do you have the universe repo enabled/
[08:26] <covOPprometheus> !NickServ
[08:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about NickServ - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:26] <munsa> javi555 did you mount it
[08:26] <woodgrain> I just adjusted the time/date ... now I can't sudo because "timestamp too far in the future".  Can't repair it wither.
[08:26] <userone> gnomefreak: thanks...
[08:26] <munsa> i belive so harisund
[08:26] <gnomefreak> userone: yw
[08:26] <elric> covOP....
[08:26] <munsa> harisund i think so
[08:26] <gnomefreak> covOPprometheus: what are you looking for?
[08:26] <harisund> munsa perhaps you can apt-get update once and try again?
[08:26] <javi555> munsa: I think not
[08:26] <userone> compotatoj: thanks
[08:27] <munsa> ok
[08:27] <bbrazil> woodgrain: either wait it out or reboot
[08:27] <munsa> thanks
[08:27] <munsa> haha
[08:27] <harisund> woodgrain oops ... now that is a problem I don't know what we can do about ... let's see..
[08:27] <covOPprometheus> elric, checa en el servidor, o sea en FreeNode
[08:27] <gnomefreak> !freenode > covOPprometheus
[08:27] <compotatoj> woodgrain: that is a weird bug, maybe someone should report it
[08:27] <gnomefreak> covOPprometheus: read your pm
[08:27] <munsa> javi555 use the disk program
[08:27] <woodgrain> bbrazil, why would it fix itself?
[08:27] <munsa> its really good
[08:27] <munsa> its... 1 sec
[08:27] <harisund> woodgrain one extreme solution I am able to think about it to restart and startup in safe mode. Then modify your date, and then restart normally.
[08:27] <javi555> munsa: yes, sorry I am really new to linux, it is not automatically mounted? dont I have to format it first?
[08:27] <gnomefreak> covOPprometheus: also please join #ubuntu-es for spanish
[08:27] <bbrazil> woodgrain: when the timestamp is no longer in the future
[08:27] <javi555> munsa: does this work through command line?
[08:28] <bbrazil> woodgrain: how much did you change the time by?
[08:28] <harisund> munsa any luck with the apt-get update thingie? gnomebaker?
[08:28] <woodgrain> bbrazil, the time on my box is approximately correct.  Is this time separate from the 'timestamp'?
[08:28] <userone> the command line for updates is sudo apt-get update?
[08:28] <covOPprometheus> gnomefreak, hmm a tag editor, for basic tags, not ID3, and I told elric to join it there
[08:28] <woodgrain> bbrazil,  I changed time zones.  I just moved to the west coast.
[08:28] <munsa> javi555 in the gui, go to system >> administration >> disks
[08:28] <munsa> it will find yer disk and let you open it up
[08:28] <munsa> boooom!
[08:29] <munsa> harisund
[08:29] <harisund> yes munsa?
[08:29] <munsa> i gotta wait 3 hours
[08:29] <javi555> munsa: i have installed the server version, and in fact I am accessing it via SSH
[08:29] <munsa> hehe
[08:29] <woodgrain> harisund, I thought safe-mode was a microsoft thing.
[08:29] <bbrazil> woodgrain: hmm, thats a bit unexpected. try TZ=EST sudo ...
[08:29] <withayanda> can gnome-cups-manager detect zerconf advertised printers?
[08:29] <harisund> woodgrain, safe-mode is wrong terminology, you are right. I meant single user mode
[08:29] <munsa> harisund - im downloading some stuff,  is there any way to start more than one instance of synaptic?
[08:29] <compotatoj> Does anyone know why if I select PST as my time zone in windows and select the right time and then I do the same thing for linux, whenever I go back into the other OS the hour is wrong but the minutes are correct (ex. offset by 5 hours)?
[08:29] <woodgrain> harisund, how do I enter single user mode?
[08:29] <harisund> munsa no.
[08:29] <munsa> javi555 then you probibly know much more than I do haha
[08:30] <mjaudiophile> hello all, to whomever is in here, I just want to say a BIG BIG BIG THANK YOU to all the Ubuntu community, I was almost tearing my hair out at the latest xorg update breaking my setup untill I logged onto IRC and got the fix in less than 1 minute...Thanks so much for saving my life
[08:30] <munsa> Anyone know if it is possible to do a tripple boot with windoze Xp, Ubuntu, and FreeBSD?
[08:30] <woodgrain> mjaudiophile, do you have a vanity plate in chicago?
[08:30] <harisund> woodgrain: when you reboot, you will see 2 options atleast, such as "Ubuntu 5.10" and "Ubuntu 5.10 Rescue" or something. Choose the second mode. You will be logged in as root then. You can modify your date and time there, I think.
[08:30] <munsa> curious if anyone did it
[08:30] <compotatoj> munsa: yes it is
[08:30] <munsa> before
[08:30] <gnomefreak> mjaudiophile: if your using 10.1. 10.4 is the latest and fixed the issue
[08:30] <munsa> haha
[08:30] <harisund> munsa I don't see a reason why it wouldn't work.
[08:31] <Scorpmoon> yesterdays Ubuntu update broke my X server !
[08:31] <woodgrain> harisund, it'll need a pwd right?
[08:31] <Scorpmoon> what can I do about it?
[08:31] <gnomefreak> covOPprometheus: please dont pm me without asking and no i dont have any ideas atm
[08:31] <mjaudiophile> woodgrain, LOL no I don't,  why do you ask...
[08:31] <Scorpmoon> Using config file: /etc/X11/xorg.conf" ... No Devices detected
[08:31] <javi555> munsa: ups, thanks then... but I do not really know much... I thought I would have to format it first and then mount it, but I dont know... and where do the free space go? To the mounted folder?
[08:31] <munsa> compotatoj you ever used FreeBSD? It seems like it wants me to remove the other two to install them
[08:31] <void^> Scorpmoon: see /topic
[08:31] <woodgrain> mjaudiophile, someone in chicago has a plate "MJ AUDIO".  that's why
[08:31] <harisund> munsa I triple boot Windows XP, Ubuntu i386 and Ubuntu AMD64. As long as grub is installed in the mbr, grub can start FreeBSD, Ubuntu and Windows just fine.
[08:31] <covOPprometheus> gnomefreak: well ok then
[08:31] <munsa> javi555 sudo mount sda---whatever
[08:31] <void^> freebsd's boot loader can also start grub
[08:32] <munsa> harisund
[08:32] <munsa> nice
[08:32] <munsa> cool
[08:32] <harisund> void^: what bootloader does freebsd use?
[08:32] <harisund> and what file system?
[08:32] <mjaudiophile> ohhh, I see...no I'm all the way in Virginia
[08:32] <lophyte> anyone know if its possible to have a script automatically run when a volume is mounted, kinda like an autorun.inf file?
[08:32] <hest> harisund ufs
[08:32] <munsa> Never tried Freebsd but it seems nice
[08:32] <javi555> munsa: where can i see the whatever?
[08:32] <munsa> ya know
[08:32] <harisund> ok hest..
[08:32] <javi555> munsa: how do i find how is it called?
[08:32] <woodgrain> harisund, I can see why the bug with the time won't let me do a sudo, but it doesn't explain why I can't just change the time back to something that'll make sudo happy in gnome?
[08:32] <harisund> munsa and javi555 might I join the discussion?
[08:32] <compotatoj> lophyte: that seems kind of insecure if you know what I mean
[08:32] <munsa> umm
[08:32] <munsa> cd mount
[08:32] <munsa> see whats there
[08:32] <javi555> please harisund!
[08:32] <compotatoj> lophyte: would the script be on the drive on on the computer?
[08:32] <munsa> cd mount ls
[08:33] <Scorpmoon> argh, WHY make an ubuntu update if it breaks the OS? and WHY put a forum post in the topic, instead of a direct solution !!
[08:33] <lophyte> compotatoj: on the drive
[08:33] <Scorpmoon> now I have to do immense reading
[08:33] <harisund> woodgrain I have no clue. Sorry :( .. .
[08:33] <ubuntu> how do i install dutch module in ubuntu
[08:33] <void^> harisund: eh, don't know how the boot loader is called. never had a problem with it. filesystem is ufs, possibly embedded in a bsd partition scheme within a regular pc partition
[08:33] <woodgrain> harisund, thanks for all the help.  thanks a lot.
[08:33] <harisund> ok never mind void^ ... thanks for the info though ...
[08:33] <harisund> woodgrain sure .. .no problem ... let me know if you get to dapper soon ...
[08:34] <harisund> and javi555 from what I understand you are SSHed into your server box right now, right?
[08:34] <compotatoj> lophyte: yeah, I wouldn't do that if I were you
[08:34] <tuna> is ubuntuforums.org down?
[08:34] <harisund> tuna it appears to be.
[08:34] <javi555> right
[08:34] <harisund> javi555 and then what did you do? Plug in a hard disk to the USB port of that server box?
[08:34] <javi555> no, some days ago i open the computer and installed and IDE hd
[08:34] <bean-oh> anyone know anything about reconfiguring my serial (ttyS0) port? Ubuntu didn't detect it correctly by default, so it doesn't work in minicom.
[08:34] <lophyte> tuna: I can't get to it either
[08:35] <harisund> javi555 I see... So you then have 2 hard disks in that server, right?
[08:35] <lophyte> compotatoj: bah.. but I'm lazy
[08:35] <gnomefreak> theya re down atm
[08:35] <Scorpmoon> what is the solution to the X server broke problem ???
[08:35] <javi555> harisund right
[08:35] <gnomefreak> Scorpmoon: do your updates
[08:35] <Scorpmoon> I did! how do I update from console, I'm used to GUI
[08:35] <harisund> javi555 ok cool. Can you post the contents of your /etc/fdisk somewhere on pastebin, for example?
[08:35] <bean-oh> Scorpmoon, update it again, or downgrade
[08:35] <javi555> but if i do a df i get Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
[08:35] <javi555>                       37849768  26392688   9534420  74% /

[08:35] <mjaudiophile> scorpmoon, basically to downgrade back to the previous update
[08:35] <Scorpmoon> why can't you post a friggin howto
[08:35] <javi555> ups!! sorry!
[08:35] <gnomefreak> Scorpmoon: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[08:36] <harisund> javi555 don't paste here. ok never mind ...
[08:36] <sorush20> where are my sources installed
[08:36] <harisund> uh oh .. that was a quick kick for poor javi555 by gnomefreak ...
[08:36] <gnomefreak> sorush20: sources?
[08:36] <Scorpmoon> apt-get upgrade only updates repositories
[08:36] <Scorpmoon> don't I need to actually fetch something?
[08:36] <javi555> I supposed I got banned because of my last post
[08:36] <donkeyofdarkness> hello
[08:36] <harisund> sorry javi555 ... gnomefreak kicked you kind of immediately :)
[08:36] <mjaudiophile> bean-oh, I don't know if I'm brave enough to try it again but does running teh update again repair the problem
[08:37] <javi555> harisund: what did you said?
[08:37] <Scorpmoon> why bomb Ubuntu back to the stoneage of unix? Isn't Ubuntu profiled as the userfriendly linux?
[08:37] <gnomefreak> Scorpmoon: apt-get update refreshes sources.list file apt-get upgrade gets upgrades to your packages
[08:37] <harisund> javi555 anyway ... coming back ... don't bother about df for now .. just output the contents of /etc/fstab either to me in a private message (/msg harisund .. ) or somewhere else
[08:37] <javi555> ok
[08:37] <donkeyofdarkness> I'm having a problem with InitNG and fglrx
[08:37] <wastrel> who is bombing now?
[08:37] <bean-oh> mjaudiophile, i saw if its in the repos 10.4, the update should fix it, it wasn't in my repo, so i did a wget to get 10.2, and downgraded to that
[08:37] <Scorpmoon> gnomefreak, do I just type "file apt-get upgrade" ?
[08:37] <gnomefreak> Scorpmoon: you type sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[08:38] <Scorpmoon> oh upgrade, duh
[08:38] <gnomefreak> the 10.4 upgrade fixes it
[08:38] <Scorpmoon> why can't Ubuntu run an upgrade manually if something is broken?
[08:38] <Scorpmoon> for my grandma for instance
[08:38] <gnomefreak> Scorpmoon: thats not safe for starters
[08:39] <bean-oh> Scorpmoon, i would disable updates for stuff like X and kernel updates for your grandma.
[08:39] <sorush20> where are my sources installed to ?
[08:39] <gnomefreak> sorush20: sources for what i asked
[08:40] <Scorpmoon> ok then what's up with the insane amount of weekly upgrades to Ubuntu? Can't the core Ubuntu developers hold back abit? Stop keeping us for guinea pigs?
[08:40] <Tonren> I failed at XGL/Compiz.  :\
[08:40] <nn> How do i switch from X to a regular vt? ctrl-alt-fX doesnt work...
[08:40] <gnomefreak> Scorpmoon: your getting a bit offtopic please stop or join #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:40] <donkeyofdarkness> Does anyone know why InitNG makes my 3D stuff slow? I tried fglrxinfo and it says it's loading the driver.
[08:40] <gnomefreak> nn: ctrl+alt+f2
[08:40] <wastrel> Scorpmoon:  are you on dapper?
[08:40] <Scorpmoon> uhh, I think I'm getting quite close to the real deal.. but ok, if you're touchy about it :)
[08:41] <Scorpmoon> 6.06 yes
[08:41] <wastrel> Scorpmoon:  they're security updates
[08:41] <gnomefreak> nn: if you are using compiz/xgl that most likely wont work
[08:41] <Paddy_EIRE> does anyone know why this happens patrick@patrick-desktop:~$ fglrxinfo bash: fglrxinfo: command not found
[08:41] <sorush20> apt-get source xserver-xorg gnomefreak
[08:41] <fredl> Hi, I installed tvtime, works great, except I have no sound. Any pointers?
[08:41] <nn> gnomefreak: I know how to normally switch, but ubuntu+xorg no luck ;(
[08:41] <gnomefreak> sorush20: i would think if you had the src repos enabled it should be in temp or home
[08:42] <wizard>  anyone running 64bit with ati?
[08:42] <fredl> I have a Philips Semiconductors SAA7134 Video Broadcast Decoder card that receives the TV signal
[08:42] <nn> oh well.. screwit
[08:43] <Tonren> wizard: My laptop is 64bit, but I'm running 32bit ubuntu
[08:43] <Jack_Sparrow> good choice
[08:43] <wizard> oh
[08:43] <gnomefreak> sorush20: also try find or locate ;)
[08:43] <Scorpmoon> Ubuntu works now.. sorry for my offenses
[08:43] <wizard> running 64 on 64 bit
[08:43] <wizard> why 32bit?
[08:43] <Tonren> wizard: There isn't really any support for 64bit.  Flash doesn't work, etc.
[08:44] <Bagoor> I want to buy a PCMCIA modem. Are all the PCMCIA modem works in linux ? or I need to install driver ?
[08:44] <sorush20> gnomefreak: but dpkg has worked on it..
[08:44] <gnomefreak> Tonren: you can try gplflash for 64 bit but its kind of flakey if it works or not
[08:44] <axisme> Bagoor, check out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[08:44] <wizard> yea i know, was running 32 also till now, i have 32 firefox installed for java and flash
[08:45] <Tonren> gnomefreak: I tried, and it just wasn't working.  Additionally, I was having a  lot of trouble with stability and multimedia playback.  Since I switched to 32bit it's been a dream
[08:45] <gnomefreak> sorush20: locate or the find command have nothing to do with dpkg or apt but if you man dpkg there is a parameter you can use
[08:45] <compotatoj> Tonren: just get swiftfox using automatix, it is 32bit on a 64bit system and can run flash
[08:45] <E-Jey> is it already save to update my system with the new xserver-xorg?
[08:45] <compotatoj> !automatix > Tonren
[08:45] <Bagoor> axisme, there is not Modem part there !
[08:45] <gnomefreak> Tonren: not alot of 3rd party apts were built for 64 because its not the most widely used
[08:45] <axisme> you mean for wireless?
[08:45] <krizzer> i installed ubuntu on hdb1 but when i boot from that hd it says it cant mount the partiton and ubuntu wont load, but if i boot from hdb0, which has windows on it it will boot ubuntu and wont let me get into windows
[08:45] <matahari> hi
[08:46] <fresch> why the f*ck does nautilus keep wanting passwords when i do a screenshot? it is somehow related to the "connected servers" icons on my desktop. but really, if i just want to make a screenshot of my desktop, and not the contents of the servers... it is severely annoying
[08:46] <TheGateKeeper> Tonren: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava  amaroK and FLAC : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1413567
[08:46] <matahari> just wanted to ask if there is a way to install ubuntu via usb-stick
[08:46] <fredl> shouldn't saa7134_alsa capture audio directly from the TV card and play it on the audio card?
[08:46] <Tonren> compotatoj: I don't really trust Automatix.  I prefer to manually install most things.  Also, I've heard of Swiftfox, but didn't know that it could run flash on 64bit.  Don't you need a chroot to run 32bit apps on a 64bit build?
[08:46] <matahari> i have a mini-computer and want to turn into a server... but it has no floppy and no Cd drive
[08:46] <gnomefreak> matahari: i think there is
[08:46] <Tonren> gnomefreak: I'm aware; that's why I switched.  Maybe I'll switch back when 64bit has better support
[08:46] <axisme> bagoor, did you look under wired and wireless network cards?
[08:46] <Bagoor> matahari, start installing from network
[08:46] <Tonren> TheGateKeeper: That must be a new article...
[08:46] <gnomefreak> !install > matahari
[08:47] <matahari> thanks gnomefreak
[08:47] <sorush20> gnomefreak: locate doesn't work find doesn't work
[08:47] <jujimufu> so, I see there is a quake II package in apt-s repos.
[08:47] <matahari> okay, i will read this info, thanks!
[08:47] <jujimufu> Is this the real game, or is it the demo?
[08:47] <bean-oh> anyone know anything about reconfiguring a serial device?
[08:47] <gnomefreak> Tonren: dont count on it getting better unless ubuntu devs write thier own versions but its doubtfull
[08:47] <Bagoor> axisme, I'm looking for Modem, not network card !
[08:47] <wizard> i figgered why have a 64bit and run 32bit....quite disappointed buying it though
[08:47] <Tonren> gnomefreak: Aye.  That's why I'm sticking with 32bit.
[08:47] <TheGateKeeper> Tonren: what I pickup for you guys :-)
[08:47] <compotatoj> Tonren: no you don't need to chroot, it was meant for 64 bit I think, go to www.swiftfox.com and download the debs
[08:48] <axisme> if you say so heh good luck
[08:48] <compotatoj> sorry Tonren, www.getswiftfox.com
[08:48] <wizard> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1174435 is how i did 32bit chit
[08:48] <Tonren> wizard: Honestly, I haven't noticed any drop in coolness now that I've switched to 32bit.    But anyway, 32bit runs just fine on 64bit arch.
[08:48] <compotatoj> Tonren: http://www.getswiftfox.com/ubuntu.htm
[08:48] <MASTER-PIGEON> . hi .
[08:48] <Tonren> compotatoj: I appreciate the idea, but I'm stickin' with 32bit.
[08:48] <Tonren> compotatoj: Now, if you know anything about getting XGL/Compiz running... hehehe
[08:48] <compotatoj> Tonren: I agree
[08:49] <compotatoj> Tonren: automatix-bleeder can install xgl/compi
[08:49] <donkeyofdarkness> I tried xgl but it used way too much ram
[08:49] <gnomefreak> Tonren: join #ubuntu-xgl and mine works fine on dapper ;)
[08:49] <donkeyofdarkness> and I failed at compiz
[08:49] <TheGateKeeper> Tonren: ooops thought you where running 64bit :-)
[08:49] <donkeyofdarkness> I ended up formatting :(
[08:49] <wizard> xgl worked nice on 32bit
[08:49] <donkeyofdarkness> I hear AIGLX is a better choice
[08:49] <wizard> 64??? no luck yet...freezing

[08:50] <Bagoor> crimsun, 1
[08:50] <harleypig> Is there a how to or tutorial on how to build a package from source?
[08:50] <holden> Hi. Does anyone knows if Ubuntu 6.06 installation works on a SATA disk? Thanks
[08:50] <crimsun> Bagoor: is it a directory in itself instead (not a symlink)?
[08:51] <TheGateKeeper> harleypig: http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html
[08:51] <Bagoor> crimsun, I have a directory there, .esd-1000
[08:51] <cavediver> Is the forum down?
[08:51] <cavediver> Seems to be from here atm.
[08:51] <harleypig> thanks.
[08:51] <crimsun> Bagoor: Dapper?

[08:53] <donkeyofdarkness> You need to edit grub
[08:53] <krizzer> yea but i dont kno the command
[08:53] <crimsun> Bagoor: ok, thanks.
[08:53] <fredl> does anybody know how to use tvtime with alsa?
[08:53] <munsa> I think I have universe and multiuniverse installed but my app list seems small i think I am missing one or something
[08:53] <TheGateKeeper> munsa: I have looked for that in the package search engine doesn't seem to be there, and google doesn't seem to know much about it either
[08:53] <holden> is anyone using a SATA disk with Ubuntu? I wanted to know if it would work
[08:54] <algabone> hi all
[08:54] <Bagoor> holden, yes, I do
[08:54] <krizzer> do you know what the command is donkey
[08:54] <donkeyofdarkness> krizzer I'll tell you what you need to add in a /msg
[08:54] <erUSUL> xan: http://ipw3945.sourceforge.net/
[08:54] <munsa> TheGateKeeper I can find it apt-get install gnomebaker easy, but the thing is I want access to all the cool packages I had before
[08:54] <krizzer> ok
[08:54] <algabone> does anyone know which one is the right version for xserver-xorg-core ?
[08:54] <holden> Bagoor: thanks, does it work just out of the box?
[08:54] <algabone> i had an issue these days
[08:54] <TheGateKeeper> holden: I'm not using SATA, but I think you can use them with linux
[08:54] <DShepherd> algabone: 10.4
[08:54] <erUSUL> algabone: the last one
[08:55] <algabone> and i heard was already fixed
[08:55] <algabone> 10.4
[08:55] <algabone> thanks
[08:55] <algabone> :D
[08:55] <Bagoor> holden, It depends on your SATA Chipset. Mine is Intel, and work correctly :)
[08:55] <Qball> sata and linux works fine
[08:55] <xan> erUSUL : I know that, but the question is is it integred in ubuntu?
[08:55] <holden> TheGateKeeper: ok, i'll try
[08:55] <thegve> Hello. Got a slight problem running X. At work we've bought a new server ( HP Proliant ML150 G3 ). And the thingy is certified for SuSE and RedHat, so it comes with video drivers. I've tested them under Ubuntu (the distro the server will run) and CentOS.
[08:55] <Qball> 00:07.0 IDE interface: nVidia Corporation CK804 Serial ATA Controller (rev a3)
[08:55] <erUSUL> xan: i think that it is not. you will have to compile the module and tools yourself
[08:55] <holden> Bagoor: ok, i just check, and my chipset (Uli) is supported, thank you
[08:55] <thegve> Under CentOS the graphics works using the vesa drivers, under Ubuntu I totally can't get graphics to work.
[08:56] <TheGateKeeper> holden: don't know if drivers are an issue
[08:56] <thegve> Anyone experienced using Matrox G200 chips under Ubuntu?
[08:56] <covOPprometheus> sup, anyone knows how to edit audio-file-tags ? ( the ones seen under properties, not ID3)
[08:56] <xan> erUSUL: I suspected it....
[08:56] <TheGateKeeper> munsa: this not do it then? http://za1012001.googlepages.com/modifyingubunturepositories
[08:56] <thegve> I called HP, and they wouldn't help me. "Ubuntu is not supported yet (late this year probably)"
[08:57] <xan> For that I wanted to know it "officially"
[08:57] <TheGateKeeper> munsa: you can google for recommendations on ubuntu repos
[08:57] <izirku> i have a Ubuntu dapper laptop with eth0 (network card - static ip) and eth1(wireless dyn ip) running trough a WRT54G router as an access point to internet... what would be recommended as far as firewall goes?
[08:58] <xan> well, thanks
[08:58] <xan> bye
[08:58] <thegve> munsa: While googling, I have a feeling you'd want easyubuntu
[08:58] <TheGateKeeper> !iptables
[08:58] <cavediver> izirku: it has a built in fw.
[08:58] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed with iptables (in the command line), firestarter (gui, can also setup connection sharing) or shorewall (web interface)
[08:58] <TheGateKeeper> izirku: ^^^^

[09:24] <Tonren> Hey guys, what do I do if the Live CD hangs on Mounting root file system?
[09:25] <MrZTower> is ubuntu's bind chrooted by default/
[09:25] <MrZTower> ?
[09:25] <dashriKe> k, so I have used Ubuntu for a while [as I was told it was a good way to learn] , should I continue with it, or upgrade to a more powerful/functional distro?
[09:25] <MystaMax> why is that when I use Terminal service Client and the colors are set to 16bit or higher, the windows are see-through???
[09:25] <rsk> dashriKe, not really
[09:25] <axisme> Tonren, install the server cd then install ubuntu desktop within
[09:26] <klork> hullo guys.. am trying to boot up dapper cd for desktop (sum matches of the downloaded) and select the ' start or install ubuntu ' X starts up fine but get stuck on going thru virtual consoles it shows hda read errors invalid block ......... have tried the same on 32 bit as well as 64 one
[09:26] <Tonren> axisme: Can I do a server install by adding "server" to the boot options?  I thought there was a quick way to do it...
[09:26] <papetowe> is anyone skilled in configuring wirelss drivers, im stuck on installing my driver with ndiswrapper
[09:26] <synic> dashriKe: I've been using linux for 8 years and I use Ubuntu
[09:26] <tjb891_> since I don't use windows anymore is upnp safe to use now on my router?
[09:26] <axisme> Tonren, its a different CD i think......
[09:26] <Tonren> papetowe: Are you using Broadcom?
[09:27] <dashriKe> is there any difference in Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Xubuntu other than the GUIs?
[09:27] <axisme> Tonren, Thats what I did when a laptop i was installing hung during the live cd startup. I really hate the idea of a live cd install
[09:27] <Tonren> dashriKe: Nope.  The different Ubuntus just use different window/desktop managers
[09:27] <Tonren> axisme: Cool... thanks for the tip

[09:28] <Tonren> axisme: To do what?
[09:28] <axisme> Tonren, might take longer to find another answer though hehe
[09:28] <axisme> Tonren, to install desktop from the server install
[09:28] <albertoalarcon> como puedo obtener el messenger para ubuntu
[09:28] <Tonren> axisme: Meh.  at least the server install will be fast, hehe
[09:29] <axisme> Tonren, thats true
[09:29] <papetowe> hey guys im back
[09:29] <axisme> Tonren, to be fair i did do it on an old IBM, probably faster on better hardware :-)
[09:29] <papetowe> i'll find my model , one sec
[09:29] <keitaro> Anyone have issues with wine and getting them to recognize TTF fonts? All my fonts in wine look like gtk1
[09:29] <tjb891_> is upnp safe to use with ubuntu?
[09:29] <Tonren> albertoalarcon: aqui por favor solamente habla ingles.  pero... ubuntu tiene un messenger que llama "gaim"
[09:30] <keitaro> i've tried copying the ttf fonts to wine's C:\windows\fonts, but it still uses the ugly fonts

[09:35] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs

[09:35] <Bigsky> Hello. Can someone point me to a doc that show's howto dualboot Ubuntu but having Ubuntu on a separate slave disk? Winxp being the primary.
[09:35] <Subhuman> so it wont install cuz of that.
[09:35] <papetowe> no
[09:35] <Mr0bvious> papetowe: Do that then.
[09:35] <papetowe> i just followed the guides and they said to use ndiswrapper
[09:35] <marshall_> does anybody know an easy way to get amsn to have antialiasing?
[09:36] <Mr0bvious> Ok don't
[09:36] <Subhuman> Bigsky, i do it now, ubuntu will sort that out on install.
[09:36] <marshall_> if i instal with automatix, will it have antialiasing?
[09:36] <Subhuman> Bigsky, jus make sure you install ubuntu to /dev/hdb instead of a
[09:36] <Mr0bvious> papetowe: Lemme get you a link, it's the ubuntu forums, and a whole thread is dedicated to this issue
[09:36] <papetowe> im willing to switch distros, does anyone know of one that has good wireless driver support
[09:36] <papetowe> i've probablly read it but ill give it a try
[09:36] <Subhuman> marshall_, no, amsn never seems to have it, if you want a half decent msn client, try Mercury ( http://mercury.to )
[09:36] <marshall_> papetowe:  ive heard some pretty good things about archlinux
[09:37] <marshall_> Subhuman:  ok, thanks
[09:37] <axisme> papetowe, suse is quite good...but ubuntu is quite good...
[09:37] <richiefrich> fidel yo yo
[09:37] <papetowe> yeah i like ubuntu
[09:37] <fidel> hi richi
[09:37] <papetowe> ive just spent like4 hours on configuring wireless and ive got no where
[09:37] <richiefrich> sup
[09:38] <marshall_> papetowe:  i wouldnt switch just yet man, everything is coming out for ubuntu. its popularity has opened a ton of doors
[09:38] <axisme> papetowe, well could try suse.....maybe google for a distro that works with it out of the box
[09:38] <fidel> chilling trying to learn hoe to deploy a lamp server
[09:38] <Mr0bvious> papetowe: You need to use fwcutter. I'm trying to find the thread in particular
[09:38] <papetowe> what does fwcutter do exactly?
[09:38] <richiefrich> whats hoe?
[09:38] <Bigsky> Subhuman: ok.. and that's with Ubuntu jumpered as slave? After the install and I reboot How will windows no if I want to boot Windows or Ubuntu?
[09:38] <axisme> I gave him the thread
[09:38] <richiefrich> fidel i can help on LAMP
[09:38] <axisme> he said he followed it
[09:38] <axisme> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1071920&mode=linear  that one
[09:39] <fidel> really  it would be graet
[09:39] <Anubuntu> Does anyone know of a program that can resize ext3 partitions?
[09:39] <richiefrich> fidel  what u need  to know
[09:39] <papetowe> ok
[09:39] <papetowe> ill check it out
[09:39] <fidel> I install a lamp server with ubuntu 6 then I install a gui
[09:39] <marshall_> is there any way to run windows off of your windows partition alongside linux?
[09:40] <richiefrich> what gui
[09:40] <dougsko> Anubuntu: fdisk, or qtparted, the later will be easier
[09:40] <dougsko> *latter
[09:40] <Subhuman> Bigsky, yeah the jumper is fine, what will happen on install is ubuntu wil ldetect windows xp and ask to install GRUB, let it do this, then when you reboot, you will be greeted with a GRUB menu which will allow you to choose either ubuntu or windows xp to boot, (btw if you are new to linux, i suggest once youve installed ubuntu to run easyubuntu or automatix to get the essentials installed, jus makes it easy)
[09:40] <fidel> but I guess now I need more experience with mysql commands
[09:40] <thegve> Anubuntu: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/features.php
[09:40] <Anubuntu> dougsko qtparted says: This ext2 file system has a rather strange layout!  Parted can't resize this (yet).
[09:40] <richiefrich> ahh what u need to know
[09:40] <richiefrich> fidel do u have itk setup
[09:40] <Subhuman> dougsko, im getting the same error moving an ext3 parititon
[09:40] <fidel> it comes with root and no password
[09:41] <richiefrich> fidel can u get to the  mysql> ?
[09:41] <Mr0bvious> Yeah that's it
[09:41] <richiefrich> then u need to set it up
[09:41] <dougsko> Anubuntu: ok, well whats your current layout look like, and what are you trying to do?
[09:41] <thegve> Anubuntu: If gparted says that too, then do an fsck on it...
[09:41] <richiefrich> fidel let me get u that
[09:41] <fidel> I need to create an ccount that apache users can write to
[09:41] <papetowe> It seems that if you get the following string back: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g]  802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02) that this guide is VERY unlikly to work for you although it does sometimes, dont ask me why, but basically every "no" vote and "this didnt work for me" post comes from a BCM4318 user....
[09:41] <Anubuntu> dougsko, trying to resize my media drive into the empty space before it
[09:41] <luxc> how to configure linux kernel with ubuntu?
[09:41] <papetowe> thats my card.
[09:41] <Anubuntu> (used to have an ntfs drive there)
[09:42] <thegve> fidel: An account that users can write too?
[09:42] <richiefrich> !kernel >  luxc
[09:42] <fidel> yes
[09:42] <thegve> fidel: Do you mean a www-data account that has write rights to /var/www?
[09:42] <Bigsky> Subhuman: Sweet. Thanks bunchs.. Is this based off the Debian branch of linux?
[09:42] <thegve> fidel: Cause I don't get what you mean by writing to an account...
[09:42] <richiefrich> fidel
[09:42] <richiefrich> /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password'
[09:42] <daveb> anyone know where to put calls to vbetool to save/restore video state on suspend to ram? ie: what scripts should I edit. I am trying to use gnome-power-manager with Dapper.
[09:42] <fidel> I'm trying to instll a point of sale call php pos
[09:42] <richiefrich> fidel  /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h arch password 'new-password'
[09:42] <Subhuman> Bigsky, yes, ubuntu uses the APT package system which is debian.
[09:43] <richiefrich>  mysql -u root -h localhost -p
[09:43] <richiefrich> fidel them ?
[09:43] <Subhuman> Bigsky, btw, APT kicks ass :D
[09:43] <dougsko> Anubuntu: yeah, i dont know about that. i think you have to format everything after the empty block first
[09:43] <dougsko> Anubuntu: i dont think you can just stick stuff in the middle
[09:43] <fidel> that would do what ?
[09:43] <Anubuntu> dougsko, that would mean loosing even more data....
[09:44] <kapace> can some one help me install java?
[09:44] <Bigsky> Subhuman: Great. Thanks. I just installed Debaian the other day at school and the Synaptic Pkg Manager makes things real easy.
[09:44] <richiefrich> fidel make a  root account and set a pssword to it
[09:44] <dougsko> well, copy you stuff to another partition
[09:44] <fidel> oh
[09:44] <Subhuman> Bigsky, yeah ubuntu has synaptic installed.
[09:44] <richiefrich> then u can log into it
[09:44] <Anubuntu> dougsko, so actually... would I be able to create a new partition in the empty space, copy all my data over, and then resize the other way?
[09:44] <thegve> I've asked this around 19.00 (GMT +1) before.. Does anyone here have experience with Matrox graphics cards under ubuntu?
[09:44] <dougsko> im almost positive you have to format before resizing anyway
[09:44] <Bigsky> Subhuman: I'm assuming APT is the command line version
[09:44] <stfn> is there a standard way or place to read changelogs before installing updates?  for example, could I have confirmed that xserver-xorg-core in dapper has reverted that recent crasher without installing it and reading /usr/share/doc/xserver-xorg-core/changelog.Debian.gz ?
[09:44] <richiefrich> fidel then u can u make databases  and set permissions
[09:44] <fidel> are you on ubuntu 6 or 5
[09:44] <Paddy_EIRE> guys anyone have a proper shortcut list for compiz plugins
[09:44] <richiefrich> fidel   mysql -u root -h localhost -p
[09:45] <Anubuntu> dougsko, ick... actually
[09:45] <richiefrich> that logs into mysql
[09:45] <dougsko> Anubuntu: size it up, then write the filesystem
[09:45] <richiefrich> fidel no
[09:45] <papetowe> whoever told me to use fwcutter, it wont work
[09:45] <luxc> do exit "xconfig" or "menuconfig"
[09:45] <Subhuman> Bigsky, yes, and apt is actually a frontend for dpkg....itz sorta complex.
[09:45] <thegve> As we've bought a HP Proliant ml 150.
[09:45] <Anubuntu> dougsko, ill try doing it in windows with ptmagic
[09:45] <richiefrich> fidel mysqul is mysql

[09:46] <Placid> Erm, I have a question regarding a CHROOT environment I set up a while ago
[09:46] <Placid> Basically, I want to remove the CHROOT directory etc
[09:46] <fidel> my other problem is with ubuntu 6 I dont know how to het to this chatt on 6 and with 5 I can and my server is on 6
[09:46] <Placid> is it ok for me to just rm -rf it?
[09:46] <bean-oh> anyone know anything about serial devices (ttyS*)?
[09:46] <thegve> papetowe: What is going wrong, I've installed some..
[09:46] <fidel> get
[09:46] <richiefrich> Placid go on
[09:46] <papetowe> its not ever there
[09:46] <papetowe> its not in the package manager ethier
[09:46] <Placid> richiefrich: Well, I want to remove it (it's under /chroot/*)
[09:46] <ivan> hello
[09:47] <Placid> richiefrich: is it safe for me to sudo rm -fr /chroot/?
[09:47] <tf4> is there a setting which makes the 'fade' inand out of menus go a little quicker?
[09:47] <richiefrich> Placid are u in the chroot ?
[09:47] <ivan> hola
[09:47] <papetowe> oh, i cant install the driver for my card
[09:47] <Placid> richiefrich: no, i'm in my normal root
[09:47] <kapace> how to install java?
[09:47] <richiefrich> Placid if it's not mounted
[09:47] <ivan> hello
[09:47] <richiefrich> Placid then del it
[09:47] <Placid> richiefrich: ok...should I umount /chroot ? o,o0
[09:47] <Placid> df -h
[09:47] <argument> !java > kapace
[09:47] <Placid> woops >.<
[09:47] <richiefrich> Placid yes u need to
[09:47] <richiefrich> Placid do u want the info ?
[09:47] <argument> kapace, it's in the wiki
[09:47] <Bigsky> Subhuman: will "easyubuntu" and "automatix" work on Xubuntu? I'm assuming it will but that's actually what I'm installing because my pc is old and only has 96megs of ram.
[09:48] <richiefrich> Placid on that mount point ?
[09:48] <luxc> how to configure linux kernel ?
[09:48] <Placid> richiefrich: shall I show you my df -h ?
[09:48] <ivan> "Ex-Chat"
[09:48] <Placid> richiefrich: i'm a little confused :)
[09:48] <argument> Bigsky, it should... choice of DE shouldn't affect whether easyubuntu runs
[09:48] <sethk> luxc, depends what you mean by that.  most likely the answer is to rebuild the kernel with the options you require
[09:48] <richiefrich> Placid  Placid ok what im asking if the files in  in /chroot ? do u want them
[09:48] <argument> Bigsky, you can run GNOME apps in KDE and KDE apps in GNOME and all of them in XFCE
[09:48] <luxc> yes
[09:48] <richiefrich> !kernel >  luxc
[09:49] <richiefrich> luxc look at pm
[09:49] <sethk> luxc, have you installed kernel source?
[09:49] <Bigsky> Subhuman: Great.. thanks again.
[09:49] <richiefrich> !kernel
[09:49] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux'). You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[09:49] <Placid> richiefrich: no, i don't want it anymore. i can see /home & /dev are also mounted /chroot
[09:49] <richiefrich> ^^ luxc ^^]
[09:49] <munsa> can someone help me with an Mplayer Problem??
[09:49] <Bigsky> argument: NIce.. thankyou
[09:49] <thegve> papetowe: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21505
[09:49] <thegve> it is in apt
[09:49] <richiefrich> Placid show me your dh -f

[09:49] <richiefrich> df -h
[09:49] <SexyBoBo-work> question is there a list of all avalible pakages in the ubuntu repository or is there a list option like there is in yum?
[09:49] <papetowe> thanks
[09:50] <Subhuman> SexyBoBo-work, theres about 11000 packages
[09:50] <Subhuman> i doubt your want to list ALL of them
[09:50] <Placid> richiefrich: ok?
[09:50] <richiefrich> yes yes
[09:50] <SexyBoBo-work> but i do
[09:50] <fidel> How do i get to this chatt on ubuntu 6 gys?
[09:50] <Subhuman> SexyBoBo-work, you can search on the cli with "apt-cache search" or in synaptic
[09:50] <bean-oh> fidel, xChat
[09:50] <Subhuman> fidel, "sudo apt-get install xchat"
[09:50] <Subhuman> or use gaim, but xchat is better.
[09:50] <fidel> cool
[09:51] <argument> Bigsky, basically it just comes down to whether or not the app you're using has integration with your desktokp environment... for example GNOME apps often don't have drag'n'drop capability within KDE and vice versa
[09:51] <bean-oh> fidel, in xchat the server and auto-join is already setup, just need to connect.
[09:51] <thegve> Subhuman: xchat-gnome
[09:51] <munsa> can someone please help me with an Mplayer problem? It keeps telling me cannot initalize audio device
[09:51] <munsa> so i have no sound
[09:51] <MrRio_> Oops, that X bug was a nasty one
[09:51] <ardchoille> I'm using Window Maker from the Ubuntu 6.06 repos and I am having a problem with the menu. it seems to be erased upon trying to edit it with the wm gui editor. Where is the system-wide window maker menu?
[09:51] <argument> ewww, xchat-gnome is teh suxors... use xchat-2
[09:51] <thegve> Subhuman: Gnome frontend to xchat... Slightly nicer..
[09:51] <MrRio_> Did it break for everyone that upgraded?
[09:52] <Subhuman> thegve, more like crippled.
[09:52] <argument> thegve, more like way fewer features and way farther alpha
[09:52] <argument> thegve, xchat-gnome is like version 0.1b while xchat-2 is on version 2.x
[09:52] <argument> hardly what i'd call "nicer"
[09:52] <argument> given that xchat-2 uses GTK it's got the same widget set as xchat-gnome
[09:53] <munsa> anyone know anything about Mplayer??
[09:53] <thegve> argument: Like what am I missing that I really need (I'm not an everyday IRC'er by the way, just 5 times a week)
[09:53] <argument> munsa, nope nothing :)
[09:53] <JackMacOKC> i haven't read or updated, anyone wanna give me the skinny on the latest xorg update? was there a big fix?
[09:53] <luxc> PM is the only way to configure kernel and what about "menuconfig"?
[09:53] <munsa> argument, can you help me with something
[09:53] <MrRio_> I think there should be an updates repo that is one day ahead for advanced users, then any possible issues can be flagged up by people not scared off by a commandline
[09:53] <argument> thegve, i dunno man, i tried xchat-gnome and i missed plenty of things that I can't recall
[09:53] <argument> that's just me tho
[09:53] <argument> munsa, just ask your question and someone here may help you
[09:54] <argument> munsa, it may or may not be me
[09:54] <holycow> *hmm*
[09:54] <holycow> what is the command to modify a user and let you add them to another group?

[10:05] <munsa> Bigsky, I tested mplayer after it installed with a video file I have and it worked fine
[10:06] <munsa> Bigsky you think that it would give me that error if there is another program using the sound card?
[10:06] <TokenBad> I just tried to restart proftpd...and it told me invalid command....this is the command used: sudo /etc/rc.d/init.d/proftpd restart  Any ideas?
[10:07] <dougsko> MrObvious: is e17 the same thing as DR17, i know the DR is for developmentel release

[10:07] <munsa> bigsky i dont know
[10:07] <holycow> *ooo*
[10:08] <holycow> okay i have a fresh install, should i accept the xorg packages?  i read about xorg being crashy in th elatest updates ... thats resolved i presume?
[10:08] <pattyD> Any help would be appreciated, I updated to daper drake and now gnome is hosed, I believe it has to do w/ certian packages not getting updated... "apt-get dist-upgrade" shows many packages "kept back" .... what can I do?
[10:08] <Bigsky> munsa: So what kind of file .. IE mpeg .mp3 worked before and the one you tried that didn't work. was that differnet type of file?
[10:09] <munsa> was an avi file i think
[10:09] <munsa> yea it was different
[10:09] <Bigsky> munsa: the one that worked was an avi file and the one that didn't was?
[10:09] <papetowe> something works, then something else doesnt work
[10:09] <tnzr> TokenBad: did you check to see if /etc/init.d/proftpd exists?
[10:09] <munsa> avi
[10:09] <abarbaccia> hello all - i have an AVI file which i need to shrink to 100MB (its currently 330) - what tool should I use?
[10:09] <gpm> Hey all. I'm running the latest (1.0.8762) Nvidia driver. Everything works great but when I run apps in Wine or Cedega, I see no fonts.  Is this true? Do I just use the nv driver when using Wine until there's a fix? Thanks in advance.
[10:09] <papetowe> this isnt worth the time, im just switching distros
[10:10] <gpm> abarbaccia: ffmpeg, mencoder?
[10:10] <sethk> papetowe, if you can't use this one, I doubt you'll be able to use any others either
[10:10] <TokenBad> tbzr yes it does
[10:10] <abarbaccia> gpm: any advice what quality or format I should choose?
[10:11] <Quad_342> I just installed ubuntu and I can't get my resolution higher than 640x480 (Ati x800pro and BenQ lcd monitor)
[10:11] <sethk> papetowe, by the way, you don't need to use sudo with ubuntu, that's a myth
[10:11] <Bigsky> munsa: Simply try loggin out and then loggin back in again. Then try and 1st play the file the worked originally?
[10:11] <munsa> Bigsky its the same file
[10:11] <gpm> abarbaccia: unfortunately i'm not really skilled in using either..
[10:11] <munsa> it worked
[10:11] <sethk> papetowe, you can use exactly the same admin methods as any other distro
[10:11] <munsa> now its not working
[10:11] <papetowe> if i dont use sudo then it wont let me do anything
[10:11] <papetowe> it says permession dneied
[10:11] <tnzr> TokenBad: try /etc/init.d/proftpd stop && /etc/init.d/proftpd start ?
[10:11] <papetowe> denied
[10:11] <sethk> papetowe, set the root password, and do su, which is what other distros do
[10:11] <Quad_342> does anybody know how I can fix my resolution? (ati x800pro and standard benq monitor)
[10:11] <sethk> papetowe, I mention that because people think that ubuntu has to be handled differently
[10:11] <cr3> how can I create an internal apt repository for a bunch of machines?
[10:12] <pattyD> any idea how to upgrade packages that "apt-get dist-upgrade" keeps back? It is completely hosing my upgrade

[10:13] <Bigsky> munsa: Hmmmmm. Your going to need to talk to a snd expert here. Its working then not working.. I would try dling a different file like an .mpeg and see if that does the same thing.
[10:13] <sethk> papetowe, I have to go for a bit, but be patient, you can handle it if you invest a bit of time.
[10:13] <papetowe> SIOGIFFLAGS error: No such deive --- this means my driver isnt installed im guessing
[10:13] <munsa> whats the Mplayer ubuntu file?
[10:13] <sethk> papetowe, likely, yes

[10:15] <jason_34549> hi can anyone tell me how to make /mnt/partition my home directory, please?
[10:15] <Bigsky> munsa: Just try a different file. All I'm trying to do is help you isolate if the problem is with the file itself or with mplayer. If you can play other files successfully then the file is the problem.
[10:15] <tnzr> jason_34549: change it in/etc/passwd
[10:15] <munsa> Bigsky no files have sound now
[10:15] <munsa> with mplayer
[10:15] <jason_34549> tnzr: thanks I'll try it now

[10:16] <jason_34549> tnzr: thanks :)

[10:16] <sethk> tnzr, you shouldn't edit /etc/passwd.  use usermod

[10:18] <jason_34549> tnzr: don't worry I have livecds if anything goes wrong :)
[10:18] <sethk> papetowe, I don't see it.  Are you registered?  Your nic on freenode?

[10:18] <papetowe> ok
[10:18] <papetowe> im going to, tired of messing with this
[10:18] <etnt> Hi folks, can I add a new repository to use in Synaptic
[10:19] <bean-oh> etnt, yes
[10:20] <csnoop> What should I check to make sure wpasupplicant starts automatically on (re)boot
[10:20] <bean-oh> anyone using NetworkManager?
[10:21] <etnt> I tried to find out from the Settings/Repositories menu
[10:22] <bruenig> etnt, what is the repository you want to add?
[10:23] <etnt> To install Erlang, which should exist on a repository here: http://neutronic.mine.nu/ubuntu-breezy
[10:23] <bruenig> etnt, do sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:24] <bruenig> etnt, when that opens paste that repository in the file wherever you want
[10:24] <csnoop> What should I check to make sure wpasupplicant starts automatically on (re)boot?
[10:24] <jmain> In evolution 2.6 where do you set to auto add replied to email to contacts?
[10:24] <bruenig> etnt, then do sudo apt-get update, then sudo apt-get install Erlang
[10:24] <TokenBad> ok question...I set up the proftpd.conf file to show his public address...but when restart it says <IP_ADDRESS> is the ip that is going to the public ip...and it should be different than <IP_ADDRESS>...how set that?
[10:24] <bruenig> assuming Erlang is the name of the package, generally packages are all undercase. so it would be sudo apt-get install erlang. Or you can open up synaptic and search for it
[10:26] <etnt> I tried to search for erlang but nothing was found (erlang is a prog.lang)
[10:26] <bruenig> etnt, if that is the correct repo, then that will work
[10:27] <fyrestrtr> etnt: search in packages.ubuntu.com
[10:27] <bean-oh> etnt, i would try an update your repositories before searching
[10:27] <ivan> !ati
[10:27] <bruenig> I told him to update
[10:27] <ivan> ?ati
[10:27] <erpo> I want to set up a CUPS printer that will create ps or pdf files instead of printing to a device. How do I do this?
[10:28] <bruenig> on packages.ubuntu.com it only has dapper packages. Not sure if that matters or not probably doesn't
[10:28] <evil_cow> who can help me to setup nvidia driver on lapto[
[10:28] <evil_cow> p
[10:28] <evil_cow> ?
[10:28] <evil_cow> pls
[10:28] <evil_cow> give me some working howto
[10:29] <bruenig> !enter
[10:29] <bruenig> ubotu is down?
[10:29] <erUSUL> !nvidia
[10:29] <erUSUL> evil_cow:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:30] <csnoop> The forums seem to be down indeed bruenig
[10:30] <fo0b4er> why is nobody responding in #xubuntu ?
[10:30] <bruenig> well ubotu and forums have nothing really to do with each other.
[10:30] <fo0b4er> oh well
[10:30] <bruenig> or so I don't think
[10:30] <TokenBad> ok question...I set up the proftpd.conf file to show his public address...but when restart it says <IP_ADDRESS> is the ip that is going to the public ip...and it should be different than <IP_ADDRESS>...how set that?
[10:30] <evil_cow> erUSUL, thanks i'll try it
[10:30] <bruenig> the forums worked for me
[10:30] <AcuraX> Does ubuntu run ok with ntfs-3g?
[10:31] <fo0b4er> i think so
[10:31] <JackMacOKC> TokenBad, you need to enable masquerading
[10:31] <AcuraX> I think im going to try out feather and just build into the ubuntu apt sources..
[10:31] <AcuraX> Well change my sources to ubuntu
[10:32] <aluno__> SEU CABEA DE BILA
[10:32] <AcuraX> and apt-get dist-upgrade :)
[10:32] <TokenBad> JackMacOKC,  I set that in the proftpd.conf...but it shows <IP_ADDRESS> instead of the internal ip
[10:32] <aluno__> YOU ARE SPEAK BRAZILIAN?
[10:32] <fo0b4er> lol
[10:32] <JackMacOKC> TokenBad: <IP_ADDRESS> is your internal ip, its not going to show your 192 or other private ip unless thats what you setup as your masquerading address
[10:33] <jmain> There used to be an option in evolution to add contacts to your address book automatically.  But in 2.6 It seems to be missing.
[10:33] <TokenBad> JackMacOKC,  but what saying is the ip that goes to his machine is a 192.whatever address...and he needs the 192.whatever to point to his public ip
[10:33] <aluno__> YOU ARE ESPEAK BRAZILIAN
[10:34] <TokenBad> show when people ftp in..it goes to the right machine
[10:34] <ompaul> !br
[10:34] <etnt> ok I found erlang. it turned out I had to tick some of the existing repositories (I'm slowly getting the hang of Ubuntu) Thanx !
[10:34] <AcuraX> Can someone show me tha apt-get source list for ubuntu?
[10:34] <JackMacOKC> TokenBad: i understand what you're saying, but thats not what you want. its correct for proftpd to say <IP_ADDRESS> masquerading as xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
[10:34] <bruenig> AcuraX, google source-o-matic
[10:34] <Warbo> !easysource
[10:34] <ompaul> !easysource > AcuraX
[10:34] <bruenig> ubotu = down
[10:35] <TokenBad> JackMacOKC, then why will it still not connect
[10:35] <JackMacOKC> TokenBad: as long as that xxx ip is the one your public ip is, you're good.
[10:35] <Warbo> Nooo! Ubotu! He was so young
[10:35] <canute> Hi there. A friend of mine let me borrow an Nvidia Graphics card, however, I have already installed drivers for my ATI. Will that be a problem?
[10:35] <JackMacOKC> TokenBad: have you forwarded port 21 on your local router?
[10:35] <TokenBad> JackMacOKC, yes
[10:35] <bruenig> i can only assume so canute
[10:35] <StephenL> How do you run commands at login?
[10:35] <ompaul> !easysource > AcuraX
[10:35] <Warbo> canute: Installing proprietary nvidia drivers will conflict with proprietary ATI drivers
