[02:37] <Broam> task0: I think that's a pretty nasty bug in a driver somewhere. I'd see if you could repeat it but the damage has already been done
[02:37] <littlegator> So Broam, I'm still not sure how to mount it >_> What does ttyAMC0 mean?
[02:37] <ameinke_> Crankeye: what?
[02:37] <Crankeye> ameinke_: my reboot broke again
[02:37] <zack> one other thing - what is better for ATI? fglrx, ati, or radeon drivers? using the fglrx, glxgears doesn't work very well at all, though beryl with xgl works fine
[02:37] <ameinke_> Crankeye: iam here
[02:37] <abyss> vox754, im just an ut fan and i know ut2004 runs nativly on linux. but i find nowhere the installer
[02:37] <Broam> littlegator: a tty is...well, the language is confusing, but basically your console logins and your serial ports are tty's
[02:37] <Crankeye> ameinke_: it asks for the root password again
[02:37] <mahound> hey...
[02:37] <task0> Broam: actually yes, happend to me by the sencond time... i had the exact same problem before
[02:37] <mahound> my ubuntu installation freezes
[02:37] <whonicca> no ftp clients where u can set ur active ip connection on linux?
[02:37] <Broam> littlegator: you may have more luck using it as a modem :)
[02:38] <Broam> task0: same machine?
[02:38] <task0> Broam: yes, but differenet hardrives
[02:38] <ameinke_> Crankeye: check #reboot
[02:38] <Broam> littlegator: See if mount will mount it, but I have no clue what filesystem to use
[02:38] <bTop> how do I create a folder?
[02:38] <Broam> task0: Might be a bug in the driver
[02:38] <task0> Broam: in win partitions are always ok
[02:38] <vox754> abyss, I've never really played computer games, so I can't help you, but I'd be very interested on hearing what you have to say about N64 emulation.
[02:38] <Broam> bTop: in the console, mkdir
[02:38] <Broam> bTop: nautilus is even easier, just right-click
[02:39] <littlegator> Broam: I don't know what it's device Id is >_> I'm sorry I'm such a noob
[02:39] <megafauna> Hi, Can someone tell me the name of the program I open in the Terminal to change the sound settings?
[02:39] <task0> Broam: can i reportit somewhere?
[02:39] <Broam> littlegator: mount /dev/ttyACM0
[02:39] <abyss> vox754, well works for me on ubuntu edgy fine except of sound
[02:39] <mahound> "ata1: port reset"
[02:39] <mahound> any clue?
[02:39] <Broam> task0: File a bug report, make sure you put your hardware info in it. That looks nasty, and I'm sorry you lost data (or at least, had to fix your partition tables)
[02:39] <task0> Broam: can you helpme reporting it? my english is not very good
[02:39] <bTop> can I create a directory in say Folder 1 then in my www folder create a shortcut to it? or link..!
[02:39] <abyss> vox754, but i really played only one rom ^^ zelda ocarina of time. but works well
[02:39] <Broam> task0: File it against gparted
[02:40] <NeoLysnaKe> hi
[02:40] <jrib> bTop: sure, like a symlink?
[02:40] <task0> Broam: how can i reportit?
[02:40] <littlegator> Broam: mount can't find it
[02:40] <Broam> !bug

[02:40] <kubota> Anyone know why my screen looks blury? I've got the resolution set to the max, it's no t unreadable, ut it gives me a headache
[02:40] <Broam> littlegator: probably not mountable then
[02:40] <jrib> kubota: only fonts, or all of your screen?
[02:40] <littlegator> Broam: Would there be any apps that could read it?
[02:40] <Broam> littlegator: Search around, see if you can find anyone else who's gotten to mount it.
[02:41] <kubota> jril: all my screen
[02:41] <vox754> abyss, yeah. I'm too one of those nostalgic guys whose N64 keeps resetting, so when I got time I'd love to play Zeldas or more games. I never got all hearts on Majora's Mask.
[02:41] <Broam> littlegator: Um, I don't know about a RAZR, but BitPim works for the Qualcomm CDMA phones (Verizon Wireless in the states, etc.)
[02:41] <Broam> kubota, jrib: I suspect a bad refresh rate
[02:41] <task0> Broam: can you help me filling the repport?
[02:41] <kdub432> thats what i would guess too, broam
[02:42] <Broam> task0: I can try, but you'll have to start it. I don't think I can edit it, because I forget my launchpad login after I switched to gNS
[02:42] <abyss> vox754, hehe i think ubuntu (in global linux) is now ready to handle a hand of game too ^^
[02:42] <Broam> task0: Can you use pastebin? I can see what you're going to post and make edits there
[02:42] <BHSPitMonkey> vox754, weak
[02:42] <task0> pm
[02:43] <abyss> vox754, if i remind debian 4 years ago. nobody though about playing shooters on it
[02:43] <kubota> Broan: Know of anyone way to resolve that?
[02:43] <Broam> task0: Go ahead
[02:43] <bTop> is there a way to be root when I'm opening a file using GUI?
[02:43] <ivx> hello,
[02:43] <vox754> BHSPitMonkey, what?
[02:43] <jrib> bTop: use gksudo
[02:43] <Broam> kubota: sudo dpkg-reconfig xserver-xorg, but that's not exactly easy
[02:43] <kubota> ok
[02:43] <kubota> I can try and figure it out
[02:43] <abyss> Anyone got (or know where to get) the linux installer for unreal tournament 2004?
[02:43] <kdub432> btop, i'd advise just learning the command line stuff
[02:43] <Broam> kubota: It'll ask you a bunch of questions. Of course, do note that it BACKS UP your original config file
[02:43] <ameinke_> wonderfull, http://z0r.de/?id=483
[02:43] <Flubs> borris_the_jeste: I got it to work by reconfiguring the php5-mysql module with a dpkg-reconfigure php5-mysql
[02:43] <jrib> bTop: for example,  gksudo gedit /some/random/file
[02:44] <Broam> kubota: which should be in /etc/ somewhere
[02:44] <DARKGuy> abyss: http://liflg.org
[02:44] <m_billybob> sudo nano /etc/blah :P
[02:44] <DARKGuy> abyss: just make sure you have your UT cd/dvd around
[02:44] <ivx> hey, when i do cat /proc/cpuinfo, it says my processor is only 800 mhz, and it is 1.8 ghz, how can i fix this
[02:44] <vox754> abyss, in my mind Linux equals programming, and emulators are programming so, what's the deal. The same with MUGEN for one thing.
[02:44] <m_billybob> sudo -s !
[02:44] <bTop> whats gksudo
[02:44] <jrib> bTop: do you know what sudo is?
[02:44] <Broam> !gksudo
[02:44] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>
[02:44] <cpk1> !ut
[02:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ut - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:44] <kubota> Broan: alright, thanks
[02:45] <Broam> kubota: If you get stuck, I can find where the config file is
[02:45] <vox754> ivx, you probably have Dual core, so it is normal.
[02:45] <Broam> kubota: if you really bongle your xorg-config, remember that irssi is a command line IRC prog...bah
[02:45] <abyss> DARKGuy, Ive been there but there are only updates not the general installer
[02:45] <gravemind> how do I set a partition to auto mount?
[02:45] <gravemind> I'm using gparted
[02:45] <bTop> jrib I don't know what it stands for but know I can get root access with it
[02:45] <jrib> !fstab |
[02:45] <ubotu> : The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[02:45] <DARKGuy> abyss: then it must be in your UT cd. Mine has it
[02:45] <jrib>  gravemind !fstab was for you :)
[02:45] <abyss> mine not
[02:45] <gravemind> thx
[02:45] <ivx> vox754, no dual core, but it is power now, so is it just slowing itself down
[02:46] <abyss> can u send me the installer?
[02:46] <jrib> !sudo | bTop gksudo is just a way to use sudo with gui apps.
[02:46] <ubotu> bTop gksudo is just a way to use sudo with gui apps.: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:46] <vox754> !mounting > gravemind
[02:46] <DARKGuy> abyss: guess so, I'd have to unrar the image 'cause I have no DVD drive so I had to buy it from DVD, split the image in about 6 RAR and put 'em on CDs xD
[02:47] <abyss> DARKGuy, how big the installer is?
[02:47] <ivx> vox754, never mind, it bumps itself up, is there a way to get it to run at 1.8 all the time
[02:47] <gravemind> vox754: is there somewhere in gparted where I can tell the partiton to auto mount?
[02:47] <mothersuperior> hello all
[02:47] <DARKGuy> abyss: should not be much, can't remember, lemme see
[02:47] <gravemind> vox754, it already has a mount point
[02:47] <vox754> ivx, sorry don't know for sure. May be it is normal.
[02:48] <zack> i just played around with my settings in linux, but even when i manually set /etc/resolv.conf and used ifconfig, it didn't help
[02:48] <imsocute> i need help for me to format may sd card...i think qtparted messed it up.... qtparted only reads it as a read-only...
[02:48] <Broam> zack: and network-manager crashes?
[02:48] <zack> it still defaulted to 6xx.xxx.xx.xx
[02:48] <jrib> zack: didn't help what?
[02:48] <zack> yes, networ-manager crashes
[02:48] <vox754> gravemind, GParted "creates" partitions, the mounting is done within Linux. Check "/etc/fstab"
[02:48] <sharperguy> argh firefox has decided to start randomly dieing
[02:48] <mothersuperior> anyone good with? wireless & Ubuntu?
[02:48] <Broam> sharperguy: one of your extensions maybe?
[02:48] <gravemind> vox754, kk
[02:49] <mahound> would anyone help me installing ubuntu on a sata disk?
[02:49] <sharperguy> Didnt install any new ones
[02:49] <Broam> zack: *thinks head*
[02:49] <Broam> hard
[02:49] <megafauna> Hi, Can someone tell me the name of the program I open in the Terminal to change the sound settings?
[02:49] <zero88> how would i i get firestarter to start everytime my computers boots???
[02:49] <sharperguy> It was working fine until a few munautes ago
[02:49] <mothersuperior> alsamixer
[02:49] <crimsun> megafauna: what sort of "sound settings"?
[02:49] <mothersuperior> for sound
[02:49] <jrib> mahound: have you tried just running the installer?  I just installed it on mine 5 minuts ago
[02:49] <imsocute> anyone?
[02:49] <mahound> jrib, it hangs
[02:49] <vox754> mahound, there is no science, you just install it.
[02:49] <Broam> zack: can you pastebin your ifconfig output?
[02:49] <zack> jrib: power went off recently and now two computers refuse to work with the dhcp from my router - every time i try to change the dns server to <IP_ADDRESS> it doesn't work
[02:50] <mothersuperior> mega did that work
[02:50] <mahound> with a message like "ata1: port reset"
[02:50] <imsocute>  i need help for me to format may sd card...i think qtparted messed it up.... qtparted only reads it as a read-only...
[02:50] <testify> If I want to run my Pentium D system as 64 bit rather than 32 would I still want to install the i386 image?
[02:50] <megafauna> crimsun: I can set all the sound levels for any input/output device
[02:50] <zack> Broam: not sure how to do that, but i'll try
[02:50] <Tonren> Broam: No dice.  :\
[02:50] <crimsun> megafauna: right, so you want a cli version? amixer or alsamixer.
[02:50] <Broam> !pastebin
[02:50] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[02:50] <tripppy> whats ubuntu alternative disc?
[02:51] <jrib> !alternative | tripppy
[02:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about alternative - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:51] <Broam> Tonren: You may be stuck with a halt instead of a shutdown
[02:51] <Broam> !alt-install
[02:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about alt-install - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:51] <DARKGuy> !alternate
[02:51] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[02:51] <jrib> DARKGuy: he that was it, thanks :)
[02:51] <Tonren> Broam: i tried "sudo halt" too.  the only way to start the computer again is to reach behind it, turn it off, then on again.  the hard drives never even spin down.
[02:51] <megafauna> crimsun: Thanks! Thats the one!
[02:51] <mothersuperior> Can someone help me with my wireless issue
[02:51] <DARKGuy> xD s'okay jrib
[02:51] <mahound> i think it's related with this http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=336315
[02:51] <jrib> mahound: well I did install feisty, maybe you could try that if you are desperate...
[02:51] <DARKGuy> abyss: nearly done, gimme a bit
[02:51] <vox754> testify: didn't get your question
[02:52] <mahound> jrib, i tried edgy
[02:52] <mahound> what's the difference?
[02:52] <Broam> Tonren: sudo reboot doesn't reboot?
[02:52] <Tonren> Broam: Nope.
[02:52] <Broam> Tonren: try noacpi instead of forcing it
[02:52] <mothersuperior> how do u know if your suppose 2 use hostap, hermes,or wlanng
[02:52] <mothersuperior> ?
[02:52] <Broam> Tonren: go into a tty login and hit ctrl-alt-del :)
[02:52] <Tonren> Broam: Okay, BRB
[02:53] <LJHarb> anyone here installed Sphinx Search Engine before?
[02:53] <Tonren> Broam: ... what does *that* do?
[02:53] <jrib> mahound: feisty is the current development release, but if nothing else is working for you, at least seeing if feisty does work may help you troubleshoot your problem
[02:53] <abyss> DARKGuy, im shortly afk smoke a cig
[02:53] <Broam> Tonren: should reboot, unless you turned that off
[02:53] <mahound> jrib, where do i get that?
[02:53] <linux_kid> How do I burn an .iso file in edgy?
[02:53] <DARKGuy> abyss: 29Mb x_x
[02:53] <Tonren> Broam: Okey doke
[02:53] <vox754> !iso > linux_kid
[02:53] <Broam> linux_kid: just right-click on it, should allow you to burn if your CD drive supports it (then again I'm on dapper)
[02:53] <Tonren> BRB
[02:53] <abyss> DARKGuy, what linespeed u have?
[02:53] <linux_kid> Broam, thanks
[02:54] <jrib> mahound: http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/releases/feisty/   have backups of anything important on your disk if you do decide to try the install
[02:54] <DARKGuy> abyss: suppossedly, 1024 / ADSL
[02:54] <bTop> whats the copy command I want to take all files from one folder to another?
[02:54] <linux_kid> Broam, it worked
[02:54] <sharperguy> why would firefox suddenly start segfaulting randomly?
[02:54] <testify> vox754: the i386 image install supports Intel 64 bit processesors and don't run as a 32-bit proc, right?
[02:54] <LJHarb> btop, you mean cp?
[02:54] <DARKGuy> abyss: all I know is that my downloads are at 100-120Kb/s xD
[02:54] <abyss> DARKGuy, ouch but can we try it? i need it very much
[02:54] <Broam> linux_kid: No problem. Sometimes things do "just work" :)
[02:55] <mahound> jrib, what "herd" do i choose
[02:55] <Broam> testify: no, i386 install is 32bit
[02:55] <DARKGuy> abyss: sure, how would we try? I have no idea how to use dcc :| (and I'm under irssi, gotta launch X-Chat)
[02:55] <linux_kid> testify, i386 works on both 32-bit PC's and amd64 pc's.   its the 32-bit version
[02:55] <jrib> mahound: I had a herd-3 disk already burned, but I would try the latest one if I were you
[02:55] <bTop> LJHarb, Yes. Is there a *.* or something similar?
[02:55] <abyss> DARKGuy, how about skype ?
[02:55] <mahound> ok
[02:55] <testify> Broam: So is there any install that supports an Intel 64 bit processor (that will run as 64-bit)?
[02:55] <vox754> testify, they RUN as 32-bit. That image supports the EM64T processors which is equivalent to AMD64. Either way, it is recommended the i386.
[02:56] <Broam> testify: try the x86_64 images
[02:56] <Tonren> I disabled resolvconf using sysv-rc-conf, but it
[02:56] <DARKGuy> abyss: I guess it could work, heard there was a linux version but I've never used it, I guess I could install it and try
[02:56] <Tonren> 's still throwing an error on bootup - it's trying to find /etc/resolvconf/run/start or whatever.  How do I make it STFU?  Is it safe to uninstall?
[02:56] <Broam> testify: however, i386 will work just fine, and you can fall back to it if stuff gets wonky
[02:56] <Hatty> DARKGuy: dcc in irssi is /dcc send file or /dcc chat user
[02:56] <sharperguy> !stfu
[02:56] <ubotu> Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[02:57] <abyss> DARKGuy, ther is a skype linux version out there just download and install
[02:57] <linux_kid> testify, i would use the 32-bit version (i386) because many programs do NOT work for 64bit
[02:57] <DARKGuy> Hatty: Oh, cool thanks! xD
[02:57] <abyss> DARKGuy, its a *deb pack
[02:57] <DARKGuy> abyss: kay
[02:57] <LJHarb> ubotu, isnt "rtfm" and manual link triggers the same thing?
[02:57] <megafauna> What's the best CD ripper to use with Ubuntu? In Windows I used CDex w/ Lame. Can someone pls recommend one?
[02:57] <vox754> testify, there are TWO intel 64-bit processor, one that is backwards compatible with i386 and one that is not.  :P okay thx ^^
[02:58] <Hatty> megafauna: for tipping, grip
[02:58] <Hatty> ripping*
[02:58] <jrib> megafauna: sound juicer should be in your sound and video menu
[02:59] <zack> Broam: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6322/
[02:59] <vox754> testify, It is a little hard to explain, I hope I'm not confusing you. It is best to go with i386, that is my final word.
[02:59] <Broam> zack:  looking
[02:59] <Hatty> is there anyway i can stop ubuntu from asking me what i want to do with a blank cd when i insert one into my burner?
[02:59] <megafauna> I used to rip at 320kbps at the insane level in CDex so I could have CD sound quality in .mp3 format. Am checking out the recommendations!
[02:59] <jrib> Hatty: maybe system > preferences > removable drives and media, but not sure
[02:59] <Broam> megafauna: with soundjuicer, you can rip to FLAC which is lossless
[03:00] <Broam> megafauna: I bet most of the other options allow that too.
[03:00] <megafauna> Broam: yes, but my ipod won't play it
[03:00] <testify> vox754: heh alright, thanks.
[03:00] <megafauna> Broam, flac that is.
[03:00] <zack> Broam: oops, that ifconfig is from when i just tried to set a static IP
[03:00] <Xenguy> Broam: how does FLAC filesize compare to OGG ?
[03:00] <Hatty> jrib: Thank you
[03:00] <Frogzoo> Hatty: sys -> prefs -> removable drivews
[03:00] <Tonren> Broam: Still nothing.  :\
[03:00] <Tonren> Broam: Also, I can't get resolvconf to go away.
[03:00] <zack> do you want me to put one up where it is DHCP?
[03:01] <Broam> Xenguy: they're not the same thing.  OGG is comparable to MP3 and is lossy. FLAC is lossless and will be bigger
[03:01] <Hatty> Xenguy: its bigger
[03:01] <Broam> Tonren: I don't know how to nuke resolv.conf.
[03:01] <SurfnKid> comm!
[03:01] <SurfnKid> !comm
[03:01] <vox754> megafauna, can you really tell the difference between 320 kbps and 128 kbps? Why do you need such "quality"?
[03:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about comm - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:01] <DARKGuy> abyss: done, what acc should I talk to?
[03:01] <Tonren> Broam: Not resolv.conf - resolvconf.
[03:01] <SurfnKid> !com
[03:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about com - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:01] <Xenguy>  Is it the same size as WAV files for instance?
[03:01] <Broam> Tonren: Hmm.
[03:01] <SurfnKid> !communications
[03:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about communications - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:01] <Tonren> Broam: resolvconf is this stupid script that tries to hijack resolv.conf all the freakin' time.
[03:01] <Broam> Xenguy: that's a better way to think of it yes
[03:01] <Tonren> Broam: Maybe it's safe to uninstall it.

[03:01] <Broam> Tonren: I hope so. :)
[03:01] <gravemind> in fstab, what is the UUID=number? It looks scary
[03:02] <stormbind> does anyone know if there is a WISIWIG web page programmer for linux?
[03:02] <jrib> !uuid | gravemind
[03:02] <Frogzoo> !botabuse | SurfnKid
[03:02] <ubotu> gravemind: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[03:02] <ubotu> SurfnKid: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[03:02] <DARKGuy> stormbind: NVU, Screem
[03:02] <Broam> zack: Looks like eth0 connected
[03:02] <Xenguy> Broam: Hatty: tx
[03:02] <DARKGuy> abyss: I see none yet =p
[03:02] <jrib> gravemind: basically, it's another way to specify the drive.  It's optional, you can still use the old /dev/FOO method
[03:02] <Broam> Tonren: I couldn't get my Gateway to behave either.

[03:02] <zack> Broam: it's connected, but as a static IP
[03:02] <Tonren> Broam: Seems like resolvconf got uninstalled.
[03:02] <bTop> ok so I created a folder in my www folder and an index.php file in there but I cant see it. says 404 error
[03:02] <Tonren> Broam: Yeah, I think it's just not going to shutdown properly, ever.
[03:02] <gravemind> jrib, ok
[03:02] <Broam> Tonren: Personally, stick it on a UPS, install nut (add the nut user to the dialout group) and pray you don't have to shut it down. :)
[03:03] <zack> Broam: it can access the router when i set a static IP but it doesn't access the WAN
[03:03] <gravemind> jrib: is uuid somehow better?
[03:03] <zack> or internet
[03:03] <Tonren> Broam: What's "nut" do?
[03:03] <DARKGuy> abyss: done
[03:03] <Broam> zack: according to that it looks like it's 192.168, from your router
[03:03] <imagine> Okay.. I don't really understand DNS Server... But I have a router.. and 4 computers connected to it.. and I want to make a webserver and a mail server as well.. I registered my domain name.. and my ISP provides me 3 different DNS address and my ISP has a dynamic IP set up.. should I set up my personal DNS Server?
[03:03] <vox754> gravemind, it is some number for Ubuntu, you don't have to worry about it. It is there for a reason, unknown to me if you ask.
[03:03] <jrib> gravemind: take a look at the link from ubotu about the "rationale"
[03:03] <Xenguy> bTop: check permissions (on the file)
[03:03] <gravemind> kk
[03:03] <Broam> Tonren: Network UPS tools.  Allows a computer to get data from Uninterruptible Power Supplies. I got a load of data from my SmartUPS clone
[03:03] <bTop> Xenguy, thanx
[03:03] <bulmer> Tonren: where did you get that resolvconf script? who installed it?
[03:04] <Broam> Tonren: I haven't done any cool scripting like "shut down when battery at 50%, and tell everyone else on the network"
[03:04] <Tonren> bulmer: I have no idea.  I thought it was installed by default.
[03:04] <seravitae> what can i use to bring my sound down and up again?
[03:04] <abyss> DARKGuy, i press ok but i cant see ya in my list
[03:04] <zack> Broam: what do you mean by that?
[03:04] <bulmer> Tonren: no such thing exist
[03:04] <Broam> zack: Hmm. What's the make of your router?
[03:04] <Tonren> Broam: I'm not interested in scripting, really.   In component universe, is optional. Version 1.36ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 58 kB, installed size 312 kB
[03:04] <Frogzoo> seravitae: sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[03:04] <Tonren> bulmer: I removed it with "sudo aptitude remove resolvconf"
[03:04] <zack> it's a linksys wrt54gl
[03:04] <Broam> zack: I'd ask the revision. I have rev 4
[03:05] <zack> i'm unsure - but i have the dd-wrt firmware on it
[03:05] <megafauna> vox754: I don't have an ear for sound quality at all, but I can between 128 / 320. If you turn up the sound on stereo speakers (like in my car) it becomes apparent, not annoying apparent, but apparent. However, the real reason I rip so high is 1) I paid for the CD, so dammit, I am going to get ALL my  money's worth, and 2) The music is symphonic and you cannot hear all the individual instuments correctly (it j
[03:05] <megafauna> ust becomes 1 big blur of sound) in lesser rips. This is vital when listening to the complex sounds a symphony generates.
[03:05] <Tonren> What's weird is that even after completely disabling resolvconf using sysv-rc-conf, it still tried to run on bootup.
[03:05] <bulmer> Tonren: oh okay..i have not used it before
[03:05] <stormbind> anyone know if there are any problems with notebook computers and the current version of ubuntu?
[03:05] <Broam> zack: Aah. Hmm. I'd remote into it and see if it's giving you any neat error messages
[03:05] <Tonren> stormbind: I have an HP Compaq v2565us, and it won't hibernate, and it boots up really freakin' slow.
[03:05] <bTop> Xenguy, what should it be
[03:05] <stormbind> I remember something about them overheating with the last release
[03:05] <Tonren> stormbind: Also the wireless card isn't good for Linux.
[03:05] <zack> Broam: ok, how do i do that?
[03:05] <stormbind> that's a bummer
[03:05] <seravitae> Frogzoo: hmm, thats wierd, i was just playing a movie in vlc (sound was fine), closed it down, xmms won't play sound now, but i restarded alsa.
[03:05] <Tonren> stormbind: you coudl probably find out more on www.linuxforlaptops.com.  Or some URL like that, I forget what it was, exactly
[03:05] <Broam> zack: I don't have DD-WRT installed, but I suppose you could SSH into it
[03:05] <zack> ok, ta
[03:05] <vox754> megafauna, wow, that's impressive. Any particular artist composer?
[03:06] <stormbind> thanks I'll check it out
[03:06] <Broam> zack: I haven't freed mine yet, sorry.
[03:06] <megafauna> vox754: It's not all pretentiousness, also, hard dive space is so cheap nowdays.
[03:06] <gravemind> jrib, vox754, I already have a line for the partition I want to auto mount. So I just have to add "auto," to the options
[03:06] <Xenguy> bTop: typically 644 on a file, so:  chmod -644 thefilename
[03:06] <Frogzoo> stormbind: check launchpad
[03:06] <jrib> gravemind: yep
[03:06] <Xenguy> bTop: you made need to prepend sudo
[03:06] <vox754> gravemind, that seems correct.
[03:06] <bulmer> what is the equivalent /proc/config.gz of other linux in Ubuntu..this is the file that configure created from the kernel Makefile
[03:06] <megafauna> vox754: are you into classical?
[03:06] <Xenguy> bTop: sorry
[03:06] <stormbind> launchpad?
[03:06] <Broam> megafauna: Well, were it not for your iPod, FLAC would be the way to go as it's a lossless compression.  I hear the Cowon iAudio does FLAC natively, or you can install Rockbox
[03:06] <Xenguy> bTop: chmod 644 file
[03:07] <bTop> Xenguy, can I set this at the folder level?
[03:07] <Frogzoo> !sound | seravitae
[03:07] <ubotu> seravitae: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[03:07] <megafauna> Broam: hmm, yes, perhaps I should check out rockbox
[03:07] <vox754> megafauna, I know someone. Beethoven, Vivaldi, Bach, Shostakovich?
[03:07] <Tonren> I have an old custom-built desktop that I'm using as a server.  It won't shutdown properly - whether I use "sudo halt" or "reboot" or "shutdown" or hit ctrl + alt + delete, the hard drives never even spin down.  The only way to reboot the computer is to kill the power and then turn it back on again.   And of course no ITMS, but that doesn't sound like your thing anyway
[03:07] <Xenguy> bTop: sure, man chmod for details (you may need -R recursive)
[03:07] <Broam> Tonren: update BIOS?
[03:07] <gravemind> jrib, vox754, it says "defaults" so if I add auto does that contradict the default "noauto," or just make fstab confused?
[03:07] <Tonren> Broam: How do I do that...?
[03:07] <Broam> Tonren: I understand most consider that a desperate measure.
[03:07] <Frogzoo> Tonren: chances are the bios doesn't support acpi
[03:07] <Tonren> Broam: Yeah, I hear you can brick your processor that way
[03:07] <Xenguy> bTop: bTop directories should be 755 typically
[03:07] <Broam> Tonren: depends on manuf of mobo
[03:07] <_raymond_house_> does anyone no anything about loadlin?
[03:08] <gravemind> jrib, vox754, wait, default is auto
[03:08] <gravemind> why isn't it automounting then?
[03:08] <vox754> gravemind, I don't think it will confuse anything.
[03:08] <Tonren> Frogzoo: It's a 7-year-old processor/motherboard.  I'm not surprised.   But it doesn't work even if I do "acpi=off" on boot parameters.
[03:08] <Broam> Tonren: I've never ever bricked a box, and I used to work tech support for a huge company.  Okay, I did brick one laptop dock once because I stuck the floppy drive in the DOCK
[03:08] <jrib> gravemind: are you sure that line was there before the last time you booted?
[03:08] <gravemind> yeah, it was there for a long time
[03:08] <gravemind> actually, there are two lines for the same thing
[03:09] <bulmer> what is the equivalent /proc/config.gz of other linux in Ubuntu..this is the file that configure created from the kernel Makefile
[03:09] <Broam> Tonren: There's a little device called a BIOS savior, if you don't mind the fact that their "on-line" order system involves faxing a printed copy of a web page to Taiwan after you mark it up with a pen
[03:09] <megafauna> vox754: right now I have been sucked into Bach's organ works. I HIGHLY recommend the Naxos performances by Wolfgang Rubsam. Bach's Great Organ Works is one of the best discs I've ever heard. The organ is Thunder which has found a mathematical harmony, there is simply (IMHO) no instrument like it.
[03:09] <gravemind> wait,
[03:09] <bTop> Xenguy, still nothing?
[03:09] <gravemind> it has the wrong filesystem type I think
[03:09] <OlgaB> After starting up Conky on my Ubuntu box I get three errors at the end of the readout that say it couldn't init font path elements
[03:09] <Tonren> Broam: Uh... no thanks.  XD
[03:09] <gravemind> it says ntfs, but it's supposed to be ext3
[03:09] <Broam> Tonren: I was gonna LinuxBIOS some of my machines, did some looking into it. Neat stuff
[03:09] <Xenguy> bTop: what are the details?
[03:09] <Tonren> Broam: Nah, I need a quick fix.  I'm leaving tomorrow and won't have physical access to the server for another month or so.
[03:10] <megafauna> Broam: I still boot into XP once a day to update my ipod, I'm still working my way through learning/setting up Amarok. It looks really powerful with the database but less flashy than itunes (not that that matters).
[03:10] <Broam> Tonren: Ugh. I'm about out of options, I seriously downgraded 200mhz because of this problem
[03:10] <Noob> hey can you install ubuntu on a PSP?
[03:10] <Broam> megafauna: you a KDE man?
[03:10] <Frogzoo> Tonren: you might look into using apm
[03:10] <Broam> Noob: nope
[03:10] <Tonren> Frogzoo: What be that?
[03:10] <at0miku> I only have 3.5mb of space left on my hard drive... What shall I delete!
[03:10] <Tonren> at0miku: C:\Windows\System32
[03:10] <vox754> megafauna, I like the Brandenburgo concerts... Number 3, I think, is the livelier. And first movement form 5 is great. ...ahem... offtopic... damn you Bach.
[03:10] <gravemind> at0miku: /tmp
[03:10] <gravemind> lol
[03:11] <zack> Broam: i'm trying to find out how to telnet or ssh to my router but all i get is info on how to do that stuff through rather than on it
[03:11] <cables> atomiku, /tmp, APT cache... I forget where the APT cache is though.
[03:11] <vox754> gravemind, that is a problem, wrong filesystem, good you noticed.
[03:11] <Frogzoo> Tonren: it's an alternative power management daemon - you'd best google about before installing it
[03:11] <at0miku> sudo rm -rf /tmp ?
[03:11] <Tonren> zack: You can't SSH or telnet to a router unless it has an SSH server running on it.   Does yours??  I've never heard of that happening before.
[03:11] <Zero> any distro available to install on PSP
[03:11] <Tonren> Frogzoo: Okey doke, I'll take a look
[03:11] <megafauna> vox754: Beethoven is one of my fav's ever. When I listen to his music I can't do anything else. He speaks to the listener more clearly than an actual person can
[03:11] <Broam> Tonren: he's running dd-wrt
[03:11] <Tonren> Oh by the way, how do I uninstall old kernels using "sudo aptitude" and not the GUI?
[03:11] <zack> vox754: personally i like the jaques loussier take on the brandenburg concertos - nothing better than making it jazzy
[03:11] <gravemind> at0miku: I was kidding, deleting tmp probably won't help too much
[03:12] <Tonren> Broam: No idea what that is...
[03:12] <at0miku> k
[03:12] <megafauna> vox754: I also love the Renaissance era as well
[03:12] <Broam> Tonren: alternate linux firmware for a linksys router
[03:12] <Thehound666> Hi. I can never get any drivers working for my gfx card. I always have to run Linux within VMWare. Is there any way to make Linux run natively in a decent manner?
[03:12] <zack> Tonren: it's a firmware built to improve the capabilities of the wrt54gl router
[03:12] <quaal> has anyone been able to edit their gnome menu? under applications? when i try to click on the 'show' box it does not let me ?
[03:12] <vox754> zack, curse you and your family... NO! mathematical way is the only way. ...ahem ... offtopic.
[03:12] <Broam> Thehound666: what graphics card?
[03:12] <Xenguy> bTop: make sure you verify the actual location of the file
[03:12] <Tonren> Oooohhh!! It's the cool open source WRT firmware that they made becuase Linksys used OSS stuff on their router without telling anyone!
[03:12] <Tonren> Badass.
[03:12] <Thehound666> Radeon x1950PRO XGE
[03:12] <greenman> Hi.  Not sure where else to ask this.  I need a proxy server that is easy to set up.  Something apt-get install would be nice.  Any suggestions?
[03:12] <megafauna> Broam: no, I just install my first linux last weekend: Ubuntu. I spend alot of time in this channel as I'm always having problems and questions. I was going to learn Bash this weekend but I don't think I'm going to have the time.
[03:13] <Broam> !ati | Thehound666
[03:13] <ubotu> Thehound666: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:13] <gravemind> jrib, vox754, here's the line, should this work? /dev/sda4       /media/windowsdata ext3    defaults,user,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
[03:13] <SurfnKid> !serial
[03:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about serial - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:13] <Tonren> greenman: How are you gonna use the proxy server?
[03:13] <megafauna> Broam: from XP to Linux: There was a steep learning curve
[03:13] <Thehound666> I have tried that and ended up in a non-boot situation
[03:13] <Broam> megafauna: Yeah it was
[03:13] <Frogzoo> Thehound666: what's wrong with the fglrx driver ?
[03:13] <SurfnKid> how do i learn about serial ports on ubuntu?
[03:13] <zack> vox754: what's wrong with jamming over the brandenburg concertos? imitation is the sincerest form of flattery - plus bach's composition was amazing
[03:13] <Thehound666> fglrx doesn't let me boot
[03:13] <jrib> gravemind: is /dev/sda4 really ext3 because a lot of those options are for things like ntfs
[03:13] <Frogzoo> SurfnKid: /dev/ttyS0
[03:13] <Thehound666> tried it twice
[03:13] <Broam> megafauna: I've been using Linux since Dapper was pre-release, and I still consider myself grandmamode
[03:13] <megafauna> vox754: I also like Bach's Passion of St. Mathew and his Magnificat
[03:13] <kdub432> zack, probably a problem with your xorg.conf file
[03:14] <gravemind> sda4 is ext3
[03:14] <megafauna> Broam: :)
[03:14] <SurfnKid> Frogzoo: trying to get access to my cisco router
[03:14] <Frogzoo> Thehound666: edgy ?
[03:14] <kdub432> it might be more helpful to switch to a fglrx or a xorg.conf channel
[03:14] <megafauna> Ubuntu doesn't come with lame does it?
[03:14] <Thehound666> yes
[03:14] <cables> at0miku, I think sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb will remove your apt archives, which should save a lot of space. However, someone should check me on that...
[03:14] <gravemind> jrib - I think it used to be ntfs, but I changed it in gparted
[03:14] <vox754> gravemind, why does it say windowsdata, are you sure it is ext3? The gid=46 means root, the default for NTFS, so it may be actually NTFS. Best way is to use "sudo fdsik -l"
[03:14] <greenman> Tonren: I want to limit access from a particular computer
[03:14] <Broam> megafauna: might be in universe or multiverse.
[03:14] <bTop> Xenguy, yes its there I did a dir
[03:14] <zack> kdub432: ok then
[03:14] <Tonren> Anyone?  How do I uninstall old kernel headers with "aptitude" on the command line?
[03:14] <megafauna> Broam: checking
[03:14] <Frogzoo> SurfnKid: ciscos aren't standard serial - they need a custom pinout
[03:14] <greenman> Tonren: basically the computer would be set to go through the proxy and i could set when it could be online.
[03:14] <Tonren> greenman: Ahh, ok.  Not sure how to help out with that.  ( I only know how to set up a much simpler proxy.)
[03:14] <SurfnKid> Frogzoo: what do ya recommend to use as an interface so i can program baud rate and settings
[03:14] <Broam> megafauna: girlfriend bought an iRiver, which supports Ogg.  Oh wait. *I* bought that for her.  Wonder why...
[03:14] <Thehound666> only thing that saved me was xorg.conf backup
[03:14] <cables> !lame
[03:14] <ubotu> lame: LAME Ain't an MP3 Encoder. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 3.96.1-2 (edgy), package size 260 kB, installed size 696 kB
[03:15] <greenman> Tonren: what do you mean much simpler?
[03:15] <Xenguy> bTop: ls ?  you may want to do a 'pwd' too ;-)
[03:15] <Frogzoo> SurfnKid: kermit is very good
[03:15] <Broam> megafauna: multiverse
[03:15] <SurfnKid> ah ok
[03:15] <SurfnKid> let me try that thanx
[03:15] <Tonren> greenman: If you do "ssh remoteserver.com -D 8080", it sets up a proxy server on your local box at port 8080.
[03:15] <gravemind> jrib, vox754, so should I delete those extra ntfs options?
[03:15] <jrib> gravemind: you can get by with just having "user" in there as the options
[03:15] <vox754> zack, NO. I am a machine and I like mathematical music.
[03:15] <at0miku> hmm
[03:15] <littlegator> argh, could anyone help sync a motorola Razr to ubuntu? =.=
[03:15] <megafauna> Broam: I switched to Ubuntu out of curiousity and because the only 2 apps I regularly used were iTunes & Firefox. If Amarok is a decent replacement (it looks like it might be) I'll totally switch.
[03:15] <at0miku> Can I delete /home/atomiku/core.5499 ?
[03:15] <cables> at0miku, yep
[03:16] <greenman> Tonren: really?  that's interesting.  What is remoteserver.com
[03:16] <Broam> megafauna: it should be. There's gtkpod too
[03:16] <at0miku> what is it?
[03:16] <kdub432> littlegator, check out synce
[03:16] <at0miku> its 150mb
[03:16] <kdub432> actually
[03:16] <cables> at0miku, I believe it's a crash report
[03:16] <Tonren> greenman: I meant "any old remote server", not a specific one
[03:16] <kdub432> nevermind, i dont think razors what the right OS
[03:16] <BillyB2> thats what i was saying ..
[03:16] <Xenguy> greenman: 'squid' is one proxy server that seems popular - there are doubtless others
[03:16] <littlegator> kdub432: I'll try it
[03:16] <Tonren> greenman: (You need shell access to another server for it to work.)
[03:16] <vox754> gravemind, you changed it? well be sure with "sudo fdisk -l" then yes, delete the options.
[03:16] <kdub432> but its worth investigating
[03:16] <Thehound666> I never see anyone saying that the loading bar gets full, the picture scrambles then computer freezes
[03:16] <BillyB2> it doesnt penis make sense
[03:16] <littlegator> wat
[03:16] <at0miku> ahh
[03:16] <Thehound666> but always happens to me
[03:16] <at0miku> yeah, youre right.
[03:16] <mel> i am trouble uninstalling MLDONEY server it says some pre uninstall scrip error because of this i am unable to upgrade my OS from dapper to edgy
[03:16] <at0miku> DELETED! :D
[03:17] <unop> !language | BillyB2
[03:17] <greenman> Tonren: oh, I see.  I have a computer that can do it, so I would just ssh into it with that command...
[03:17] <ubotu> BillyB2: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:17] <vox754> megafauna, what about Mozart's Requiem. Amazing.
[03:17] <mel> !edgy upgrade
[03:17] <BillyB2> unop  sorry i have tourretts :(
[03:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about edgy upgrade - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:17] <megafauna> Broam: gtkpod I will check it out now.
[03:17] <greenman> Xenguy: I apt-get installed squid.  Was a bit overwhelmed with options and such.  Plus I can't get it started
[03:17] <mel> !upgrade
[03:17] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[03:17] <Broam> megafauna: both should work pretty well, assuming you can encode into mp3 somehow. You may want to check the wiki
[03:17] <Thehound666> Edgy runs fine-in VMWare
[03:17] <unop> BillyB2,  no biggy -- just that women and children frequent this channel
[03:17] <Thehound666> the fglrx driver is my issue
[03:18] <Thehound666> it never works
[03:18] <littlegator> so, could anyone help sync a motorola Razr to ubuntu? =.=
[03:18] <Broam> Thehound666: Does Ubuntu work with the free drivers?
[03:18] <Xenguy> greenman: yeah if you installed squid you would want to get to a point where you really understand how it works
[03:18] <gravemind> vox754, fdisk -l says sda4 is "Linux"
[03:18] <Thehound666> freezes too
[03:18] <Thehound666> only VESA works
[03:18] <Thehound666> and very bad
[03:18] <Broam> Thehound666: at least it's not VGA :)
[03:18] <Broam> Thehound666: laptop?
[03:18] <vox754> gravemind, then go ahead. If you think it is too crowded, you can come here #vocx

[03:19] <cables> Thehound666, did you follow the guide at wiki.ubuntu.com to the letter?
[03:19] <Broam> !easybuntu
[03:19] <megafauna> Vox754: I agree, but I think his Great Mass in C Minor is actually even better by at least 2x
[03:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about easybuntu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:19] <Thehound666> my eyes hurt @ 60 Hz
[03:19] <megafauna> vox654; IMHO
[03:19] <Broam> !automatix
[03:19] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[03:19] <cables> !easyubuntu

[03:19] <Comrade-Sergei> how do i fix grub when it boots then goes to it then just says grub un the corner and freezes?
[03:19] <littlegator> so, could anyone help sync a motorola Razr to ubuntu? =.=
[03:19] <Xenguy> greenman: hehe
[03:19] <vox754> megafauna, NO way! come here #vocx
[03:19] <bTop> howto view my new php page placed in the var/www directory
[03:19] <Broam> littlegator: I'm not sure--again, someone might have found something, but at least it sees the device. Try searching at http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[03:19] <megafauna> Broam: I will read up on it. I just bought some more music today and I want to put it on my ipod.
[03:20] <Shaezsche> i know how to recompile a fresh vanilla kernel, but how can i recompile the current ubuntu one? so i can get patches from synaptics
[03:20] <greenman> Xenguy: you can see why i would want something simple.  Thanks for the help
[03:20] <Tonren> bTop: Place a file "index.php" in /var/www then navigate to http://localhost in your browser.
[03:20] <Thehound666> I could tolerate vesa if it allowed me a refresh other than 60 Hz
[03:20] <zack> Broam: ok, i've managed to log into dd-wrt via telnet
[03:20] <Thehound666> any way to hack?
[03:20] <cnmsales> Anyone?
[03:20] <Broam> megafauna: cool :)
[03:20] <Comrade-Sergei> how do i fix grub when it boots then goes to it then just says grub un the corner and freezes?
[03:20] <Xenguy> greenman: yw (check out some of the apt-cache search results I mentioned above)
[03:20] <unop> bTop,  you have to have apache and php installed and working first tho
[03:20] <megafauna> vox754: I am there
[03:20] <Frogzoo> Shaezsche: apt-get source
[03:20] <Broam> Thehound666: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg yields no love?
[03:20] <Broam> ahem
[03:20] <cnmsales> Need help getting my linksys WMP11 v4]  802.11b card working. Im am running ubuntu Edgy installed from cdrom. I am using this help wiki https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper. I have done this but i think i made a mistake by not removing NDIS before installing the new NDIS files. If anyone could help me get this in working order id be greatly thankful.
[03:20] <lineman60> i need some help with wireless, followed the walkthu here, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=201902   but when i have bmc43xx in blacklist on reboot my wireless card dose not show up in network manager.
[03:20] <Shaezsche> frogzoo, wher edo i type make xconfig?
[03:21] <Broam> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:21] <Thehound666> no and if fglrx freezes it
[03:21] <Thehound666> I still need to restore xorg.conf from backup
[03:21] <greenman> Xenguy: i am.  I'm checkin' out micro-proxy right now.  (got it form the list)
[03:21] <Shaezsche> Frogzoo if i recompile it, will the patches from apt-get upgrade still apply to it? do i have to name it something?
[03:21] <Comrade-Sergei> how can i reinstall grub and im not installing windows
[03:21] <Broam> Thehound666: sounds like you have a lovely graphics card there. Either it's too new, offbrand, or it's overheating like nuts
[03:21] <Thehound666> if I right click the Desktop and go into resolution settings
[03:21] <Thehound666> it claims the changes have been made
[03:22] <Thehound666> but they haven't
[03:22] <Broam> Thehound666: you could always just hack away at xorg.conf by yourself
[03:22] <Thehound666> not overheating
[03:22] <Frogzoo> Shaezsche: building your own kernel is completely unsupported & afaik, patches aren't released through synaptic
[03:22] <unop> cnmsales, installing a new package over an older one shouldnt matter really -- what part of the wiki are you stuck at?
[03:22] <bulmer> lineman; isnt it that having the module mentioned in blacklist meant it does not get loaded?
[03:22] <Thehound666> I can play Oblivion all day in Windows
[03:22] <Shaezsche> yea, but if i used the one that ubuntu supplies from sourc?
[03:22] <cnmsales> unop, i followed it all the way through
[03:22] <kdub432> the hound, you can play in linux too using cedega
[03:22] <Comrade-Sergei> how can i reinstall grub and im not installing windows
[03:22] <Shaezsche> can i just chnage the options instead of recompiling it?
[03:22] <bulmer> lineman60 isnt it that having the module mentioned in blacklist meant it does not get loaded?
[03:22] <cnmsales> in the ndis gui it shows the driver is installed and hardware present
[03:22] <Thehound666> yes if we can get my gfx card to work
[03:22] <Broam> !grub
[03:22] <Shaezsche> i want to change some things that are set as modules to be part of the kernel
[03:23] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[03:23] <Thehound666> had no problems at other house
[03:23] <Thehound666> but here
[03:23] <cnmsales> but when i go to network config the only thing listed in my Elan and Modem
[03:23] <Broam> !grub | Comrade-Sergei
[03:23] <ubotu> Comrade-Sergei: please see above
[03:23] <lineman60> bulmer, yes but i thought there was a configlit with the native dirver and NDIS
[03:23] <Comrade-Sergei> Broam im not doing anything with windows though
[03:23] <Broam> Comrade-Sergei: check the last link then
[03:23] <Broam> Comrade-Sergei: I know some of the install disks allow you to reinstall grub off of them but I've never had to d oit
[03:23] <Garda_> hey guys, on debian i used a command "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86" to reconfigure X
[03:23] <Broam> I must leave
[03:24] <Garda_> what's the ubuntu equivelant
[03:24] <Broam> Garda_: dpkg-reconfiguer xserver-xorg
[03:24] <greenman> how do you uninstall a package?
[03:24] <Thehound666> well let me know if an fglrx expert comes in. The one at ati says it supports my card since November
[03:24] <Thehound666> but no love
[03:24] <Broam> Garda_: you know what I mean. :)
[03:24] <unop> cnmsales,  ok, but there are verification steps in the wiki that if you followed should tell you whether or not you are succeeding .. try and find out where you are failing
[03:24] <cnmsales> Unop, i got an error on the second install file of NDIS but didnt realize it was an error at the time
[03:24] <Broam> Me must jet
[03:24] <SurfnKid> Frogzoo: i get two ckermit and gkermit are they either the same
[03:24] <unop> cnmsales,  yes, error messages and warnings are important -- do you know what it was?
[03:25] <lineman60> bulmer, do you know of any good (working) BMC4306 wirless  walkthu
[03:25] <Thehound666> fyi the guide I followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[03:25] <bulmer> lineman60: you can verify if the module is loaded by looking at /boot/config-`uname -r`/ and grep it for your matching bmc nic
[03:25] <SurfnKid> !wireless
[03:25] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:25] <cnmsales> no unfortunately i dont, the reason I came here was to see how to wipe NDIS and anything else that needs wiping and then start fresh
[03:25] <SurfnKid> lineman60: Edgy?
[03:25] <SurfnKid> lineman60: i used the ndiswrapper walkthru
[03:25] <lineman60> whatone
[03:25] <greenman> how do you uninstall a package?  apt-get uninstall?
[03:25] <lineman60> i have tryed several none of them worked
[03:26] <greenman> :)
[03:26] <zack> Broam: i just checked my dhcp services settings in dd-wrt and it says 'used domain, wan' (instead of wan & lan) and lan domain was empty
[03:26] <Thehound666> no idea but would be useful to know
[03:26] <piedoggie> how can I find out by command or /proc which ethernet cards are seen by the kernal
[03:26] <SurfnKid> lineman60: let me see if i can find you one
[03:26] <Comrade-Sergei> Broam is there a command to just completly wipe the grub thats there and redo just that?
[03:26] <lineman60> when i run nidswrapper -l it shows up working and hardware present
[03:27] <unop> cnmsales,  you shouldnt need to remove anything -- you can install over old/existing packages
[03:27] <Thehound666> if you find out greenman, let me know since I ssh to 1 machine
[03:27] <cnmsales> lineman i had the same thing the -l switch showed my hardware present and working
[03:27] <Frogzoo> SurfnKid: dunno, I user ckermit
[03:27] <lineman60> but when i try to connect it dorps
[03:27] <cnmsales> unop i see, so just start over again?
[03:27] <Openix> greenman: just do apt-get foe help
[03:27] <lineman60> *drops
[03:27] <unop> piedoggie,  lspci
[03:27] <piedoggie> thanks
[03:27] <SurfnKid> Frogzoo: that should work then :P
[03:27] <Openix> apt-get remove
[03:27] <greenman> Openix: thanks
[03:27] <SurfnKid> lineman60: what have you done so far?
[03:27] <Comrade-Sergei> is there a command to just completly wipe the grub thats there and redo just tha
[03:27] <unop> cnmsales,  yea, that'd work for sure -- but pay attention to error messages (if any) and then ask us if you dont know what they mean
[03:28] <lineman60> tryed ndis and the fwcutter
[03:28] <cnmsales> yeah i will for sure this time, also, it says Dapper comes with the open source bcm43xx driver. I know im using edgy but is this something I need be concerned with?
[03:28] <bulmer> Comrade-Sergei: perhaps grub-install will over-write what is there?
[03:28] <unop> greenman,  you got what you wanted? removing a package ...
[03:28] <unop> ?
[03:29] <Thehound666> hack at xorg.conf myself? you're talking to a semi-newbie
[03:29] <Comrade-Sergei> bulmer ok whats that
[03:29] <bulmer> Comrade-Sergei: man grub-install
[03:29] <Comrade-Sergei> thats it?
[03:29] <bulmer> to over-werite, yes
[03:30] <bulmer> to over-write* grub, yes
[03:30] <Thehound666> apt-get remove is right
[03:30] <Thehound666> I got a list of commands
[03:30] <Comrade-Sergei> bulmer whoa what command so i use out of all these
[03:31] <unop> sudo aptitude purge packagename
[03:31] <bulmer> Comrade-Sergei: try reading up first... man grub-install
[03:31] <Thehound666> that too
[03:31] <Thehound666> I suppose
[03:31] <greenman> unop: yup.  Thanks
[03:31] <greenman> and i'm gonna give oops a try as far as proxy goes
[03:31] <greenman> thanks guys
[03:31] <unop> yw
[03:31] <cnmsales> unop, thanks for the help. I will run through the wiki agaoin and get back w/ you if need be
[03:31] <bulmer> Comrade-Sergei: maybe you may also need to use initrd..am not sure in ubuntu..in suse i run mkinitrd
[03:31] <greenman> exit
[03:32] <unop> cnmsales,  :)
[03:32] <Thehound666> oh unop mentioned some fglrx expert that is in here sometimes. who is it?
[03:32] <zack> this sucks, i really have no idea how to fix this
[03:32] <Thehound666> kind of at wit's end
[03:32] <lineman60> SurfnKid: I have used http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=201902  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185174  http://ubuntu.cafuego.net/
[03:32] <unop> Thehound666,  hmm, i wonder who that is
[03:32] <whileimhere> Is there a way to add a folder as a drop down list-menu to the panel.
[03:32] <Comrade-Sergei> bulmer i am so confused what do i do after i do man grub-install
[03:33] <zack> Broam: i found out where the system logs are kept for dd-wrt but now i have to jump through even more hoops just to see that log
[03:33] <Thehound666> unop you mentioned you could walk me through if it were nvidia I thought once but mentioned someone else for ATI
[03:33] <zack> i'm tempted to just give up and reformat
[03:33] <bulmer> Comrade-Sergei: sorry cant help you much deeper
[03:33] <Icehawk78> I changed my Message of the Day, but after my server went down due to a power outage, the message got reverted to the default. Is there a way to prevent this from happening.
[03:33] <unop> Thehound666,  I dont think it was me -- I have no idea about nvidia actually :p
[03:34] <piedoggie> ati has been a major PITA for years
[03:34] <Thehound666> ATI?
[03:34] <piedoggie> y
[03:34] <unop> or ATI
[03:34] <quaal> has anyone been able to edit their gnome menu? under applications? when i try to click on the 'show' box it does not let me ?
[03:34] <Comrade-Sergei> how can i completly reinstall grub
[03:34] <Thehound666> an x1950PRO?
[03:34] <bulmer> Icehawk78: you still have /etc/motd?
[03:34] <unop> Thehound666,  lol no
[03:34] <Thehound666> just want to run natively on my good pc
[03:34] <Thehound666> this card has killed that idea
[03:35] <Icehawk78> Yep, but the file was reverted to the default MOTD.
[03:35] <Comrade-Sergei> how can i completly reinstall grub
[03:35] <piedoggie> I have a laptop (compaq 1700 which has an ati mobility rage chipset) and every release of X11 is worse
[03:35] <littlegator> so, could anyone help sync a motorola Razr to ubuntu?
[03:36] <Icehawk78> I can change the file again and it'll work, but I'm worried about having to do this every time I end up restarting.
[03:36] <dimeotane> I've entered  into my fstab a new fat32 partition and mounted it.  but in nautilus all files are owned by root, and root can't even change the owership or permissions...
[03:36] <dimeotane> Anyone have any suggestions?
[03:36] <bulmer> Icehawk78: then revert it back to your customized version :)
[03:36] <Comrade-Sergei> littlegator with what
[03:36] <boredandblogging> has anyone gotten democracy player .9.5 working with vlc?
[03:36] <dimeotane> here's my fstab entry :              /dev/sda8    /mnt/spaceside vfat  iocharset=utf8,umask=000  0    0
[03:36] <Thehound666> anything outside this guide I should check? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[03:36] <unop> !ATI
[03:36] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:36] <Comrade-Sergei> how can i completly reinstall grub
[03:36] <Comrade-Sergei> littlegator bluetooth or usb?
[03:36] <littlegator> Comrade-Sergei: I mean be able to transfer files between my computer and my razr v3m
[03:37] <littlegator> Comrade-Sergei: oh usb
[03:37] <Thehound666> sorry but it may need an update :(
[03:37] <Comrade-Sergei> littlegator it doesnt just recognize it when you plug it in?
[03:37] <unop> dimeotane,  any errors?
[03:37] <Thehound666> it crashes me every time
[03:37] <Comrade-Sergei> i need to reinstall grub somehow how can i do it?
[03:37] <littlegator> Comrade-Sergei: Nothing happens but it's recognized in dmesg and device manager
[03:37] <piedoggie> I've had little success with that as wel
[03:38] <Comrade-Sergei> littlegator how about in /media
[03:38] <Icehawk78> bulmer: Is there a way to prevent it from reverting anytime the power goes out.
[03:38] <bulmer> littlegator: i have vm with xp as guest, load the moto software for the razr and synced it..
[03:38] <Thehound666> the guide piedoggie?
[03:38] <dimeotane> unop: yea.. the files I've copied to the partition from windows are now owned by root and root can't even make any changes to the permissions.. does my fstab look right or is it the problem?
[03:38] <piedoggie> y and the driver
[03:38] <bulmer> Icehawk78: can you not prevent the power from going out?  :)
[03:38] <Comrade-Sergei> lol gaim
[03:38] <Thehound666> piedoggie can you tell me how you got yours working might give me an idea
[03:38] <bulmer> Icehawk78: its so easy of a step..no big deal eh?
[03:38] <Thehound666> ATI has become unified
[03:39] <littlegator> comrade what would it show up as in /media?
[03:39] <littlegator> bulmer what?
[03:39] <lowfront> hey how do I add a irc channel to this?
[03:39] <unop> dimeotane,  well, it's a bad way to ask a question -- yes, it doesnt work, but what did you do exactly, how, and what were the errors you got when that failed?
[03:39] <Icehawk78> Bulmer: Well, the server is on a converted laptop, and it's in a public area in the house... anyone bumps the power cord, and the power goes out.
[03:39] <bulmer> littlegator: which part did you not follow?
[03:39] <Comrade-Sergei> littlegator probably whats there now should be 1 or more hdds maybe a cd drive and the razr
[03:39] <Comrade-Sergei> bulmer your not helping with your sarcasm
[03:40] <lowfront> I need to join this chate
[03:40] <lowfront>  /server irc.torrentleech.org 7011
[03:40] <lowfront> how do i do that?
[03:40] <littlegator> comrade there's my 2 hdds, my 2 cd drives, and 2 floppy drives
[03:40] <bulmer> Icehawk78: duck tape the power cord eh? heck they do that in the airline repair shop i visited.. :)
[03:40] <piedoggie> thehound666:  like I said, I've had little success with either open or closed drivers.  it has been a major frustration
[03:40] <Comrade-Sergei> littlegator hmmm it should be there
[03:40] <dimeotane> unop... I entered that line in fstab.. and then sudo mount -a...
[03:40] <Thehound666> :(
[03:40] <Comrade-Sergei> ummmm
[03:41] <littlegator> uh
[03:41] <Madpilot> wheee... giant netsplit
[03:41] <bulmer> Comrade-Sergei: i am serious about what i said, use duck-tape
[03:41] <Thehound666> we need to make a graphics group to help get PITA hardware working
[03:41] <lowfront> how do I connect to  /server irc.torrentleech.org 7011
[03:41] <lowfront> ?
[03:41] <Comrade-Sergei> littlegator the thing id probably do (being a n00b) is try mount razr or mount moto or something in a terminal
[03:41] <Thehound666> if we want Linux to overthrow greedy Bill's Vista
[03:41] <unop> lowfront,  /join server:port  perhaps?

[03:42] <Thehound666> can you set refresh above 60 Hz with vesa?
[03:42] <piedoggie> then hack on the config until the screen goes dark
[03:42] <Comrade-Sergei> littlegator maybe theres a problem with the hardware
[03:42] <littlegator> Bulmer: What did you mean you had vm with xp as guest?
[03:42] <unop> Thehound666,  maybe we just want to run software the way we want and dont want to have anything to do with billG, even contend with M$
[03:42] <Comrade-Sergei> try anothere cord
[03:42] <Xenguy> greenman: these ones look interesting also (depending on what you actually need to do): oops, simpleproxy, tinyproxy (the last one does anonymizing too, hrm)
[03:42] <piedoggie> I give up, put the laptop back in its bag and go do something else
[03:43] <Comrade-Sergei> OMG how do you reinstall grub from a rescue disc!

[03:45] <littlegator> bulmer: oh, did it? >_> Wow, that might help... Let me go check =.=
[03:45] <unop> spinster,  ^^^
[03:45] <spinster> OMG
[03:45] <MAA> hi
[03:46] <EnsignRedshirt> Hello, world.
[03:46] <piedoggie> I have 4 linux mach running on my laptop right now
[03:46] <bulmer> littlegator: you have to open the box and see what inside sometimes :)
[03:46] <MAA> yer
[03:46] <Thehound666> some laptop
[03:46] <numa> this is kinda surreal
[03:46] <Se23> who know how to install skins for xmms media player?
[03:46] <Thehound666> must hurt battery though
[03:46] <MAA> any of you guys running raid on your ubuntu
[03:46] <EnsignRedshirt> I am getting this message in /var/log/syslog: Feb 17 21:43:17 localhost dhclient: DHCPREQUEST on eth0 to <IP_ADDRESS> port 67
[03:46] <dimeotane> Does anyone know how to mount a fat32 partition so that I can write and delete files as a user?
[03:46] <turbolover> anyone here use vmware?
[03:46] <Brunellus> does anybody know anything about dapper's init?
[03:46] <pavs> whats default FTP folder in apache? HTTP is /var/www I know that
[03:46] <Frogzoo> !anyone | MAA
[03:46] <Thehound666> I do
[03:46] <ubotu> MAA: 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?
[03:46] <bulmer> turbolover: i do
[03:46] <EnsignRedshirt> ...followed by many messages like this: Feb 17 21:45:46 localhost last message repeated 5 times
[03:46] <unop> Se23,  usually you just place the skins in ~/.xmms/Skins
[03:46] <piedoggie> 2ghx p4 dual core, 2gb ram 1680x1040 display
[03:46] <MAA> haha
[03:47] <MAA> ya
[03:47] <MAA> i see
[03:47] <bulmer> pavs: you need to look at the httpd.conf or its equivalents
[03:47] <Icehawk78> Oh, one thing for anyone - I'm trying to FTP into my box from Windows, and I'd like to be able to FTP files into the /var/www/uploads folder, but my FTP uploads files into the /home/nicholas folder.
[03:47] <MAA> how do i set up raid on my ubuntu
[03:47] <turbolover> bulmer: for some reason my vmware is broken and wants me to reconfigure, it wants to know the location of the directory of C header files that match my running kernel, wouldnt that be /usr/rc?
[03:47] <MAA> i used the ubuntu live cd but got no raid drive
[03:47] <turbolover> using DD
[03:47] <vinboy> hi
[03:47] <EnsignRedshirt> <IP_ADDRESS> is my Cable Router.  What is generating so many DHCPREQUESTs?
[03:47] <pavs> bulmer where is httpd.comf I forgot
[03:47] <EnsignRedshirt> Is that normal?
[03:48] <Falstius> MAA: you already have a hardware raid setup?
[03:48] <vinboy> what theme do you guys use? i want to change from Ubuntu's theme
[03:48] <Thehound666> try a reinstall I would-the easy way. Your virtual machines won't get wiped
[03:48] <MAA> yea
[03:48] <MAA> its setup
[03:48] <Frogzoo> MAA: you need to do the text install off the alternate cd - however raid for / is kind of unnecessary imo
[03:48] <Thehound666> accepting all defaults works
[03:48] <unop> turbolover,  /usr/lib  or /usr/src
[03:48] <bulmer> turbolover: mine once in a while gets removed, so i run that vm-install.pl script..and it re do everything..after i respond yes off course to the prompts
[03:48] <MAA> where is that alternate cd
[03:48] <Icehawk78> pavs: ./etc/apache2/httpd.conf
[03:48] <MAA> i looked at their website
[03:48] <MAA> coudln't find it
[03:48] <MAA> i see ubuntu 6.06 and 6.10
[03:49] <bulmer> pavs: i really dont know, but try  "locate httpd.conf"
[03:49] <MAA> frogzoo what does this mean
[03:49] <MAA> however raid for / is kind of unnecessary imo
[03:49] <littlegator> bulmer: Yeah, well, this wasn't my phone originally. It was a family member's, so we probably have the stuff around somewhere but I can't find it
[03:49] <MAA> raid for root?
[03:49] <unop> EnsignRedshirt,  typically it takes a few seconds for a DHCP server to get your request and assign a lease, reply etc -- in that time, your client might send out other requests .. in anycase, it is your own interface doing that
[03:49] <Thehound666> is there anywhere I can have someone(even pay) research my issue?
[03:49] <sethk> littlegator, family member.  family's member is a completely different thing  :)
[03:49] <Frogzoo> MAA: I only raid my data, and you can set that up after you've installed
[03:50] <MAA> ohh
[03:50] <DavidCraft> question:
[03:50] <EnsignRedshirt> unop: Does it really make DHCPREQUESTs about 5 times each minute?
[03:50] <Frogzoo> Thehound666: you can buy support from canonical
[03:50] <MAA> ahh i only got a raid setup
[03:50] <bulmer> littlegator: thats what i did..so go beat up on your lil brother if he cant find your moto cdrom...j/k
[03:50] <littlegator> sethk: I'm not sure what you're talking about >_>
[03:50] <MAA> so its necessary for me to put it on the raid
[03:50] <MAA> i don't wanna loose any of the windows stuff etheir
[03:50] <unop> EnsignRedshirt,  err no .. not every minute, no
[03:51] <sethk> littlegator, well, that's probably because I typed it wrong  :)
[03:51] <DavidCraft> I want a bigger HD.  Can I just copy everything from the old hD to the new one and run it?
[03:51] <EnsignRedshirt> unop: That's what seems strange to me.
[03:51] <turbolover> thats annoying, wonder how it got messed up
[03:51] <MAA> if you can lead me to the alternate cd
[03:51] <DavidCraft> it has Ubunto on it
[03:51] <MAA> would be nice

[03:51] <unop> EnsignRedshirt,  it might do that at the end of it's lease but probably only 5 one-off
[03:51] <DavidCraft> it has Ubuntu on it*
[03:51] <littlegator> !ubunto
[03:51] <ubotu> It's spelled Ubuntu! with a U! *Ubuntu*!
[03:51] <sethk> DavidCraft, you can do it, but you wouldn't be using any of the space on the larger drive
[03:51] <DavidCraft> I know sorry
[03:51] <MAA> err nevermind found it
[03:52] <zt1`> samba hard to config ?
[03:52] <sethk> DavidCraft, you can copy it, and then use the additional space as a sparate partition
[03:52] <DARKGuy> lol @ ubotu
[03:52] <unop> EnsignRedshirt,  check your routers settings and try and increase the lease time to something reasonable (7 days is good)
[03:52] <DavidCraft> it was ubunto not ubontu
[03:52] <pavs> I got it bulmer icehawk78 was right, but the configuration file is empy nothing there the setup for FTP folder is not in apache2.conf either anyone knows?
[03:52] <DavidCraft> yeesh :P
[03:52] <Thehound666> cannonical has no prices listed though I'd pay a fair amount to say bye to Windows
[03:52] <MAA> yer
[03:52] <MAA> i wanna say bye to my windows
[03:52] <megafauna> Hi, can someone recommend a good ripper/encoder for lame that allows me to use variable bitrate?
[03:52] <MAA> tired of it
[03:53] <DavidCraft> what about if I ajusted the partishon THEN copied all the files over? will it work?
[03:53] <MAA> but im forced to use it at this moment
[03:53] <littlegator> argh I can't find this razr box =.=
[03:53] <DavidCraft> man I cant speel tonight
[03:53] <MAA> yer
[03:53] <DavidCraft> SPELL*
[03:53] <megafauna> Broam: gtkpod won't start for some reason
[03:53] <sethk> DavidCraft, yes, that will work
[03:53] <bulmer> pavs: umm http upload? is that what you are looking for?
[03:53] <Thehound666> I know nothing about RAID under Linux
[03:53] <DavidCraft> ll thx
[03:53] <MAA> ah
[03:53] <sethk> DavidCraft, you'll have to install the boot loader, manually, but other than that copy is fine
[03:53] <Thehound666> only use it at work
[03:53] <Thehound666> under wintrash
[03:53] <DavidCraft> right
[03:53] <slv> how do i change the folder that shows on my desktop? right now it's /home/ian/Desktop, i want to change it to /home/ian

[03:54] <bulmer> pavs: btw..i prefer Tomcat to apache
[03:54] <SurfnKid> Frogzoo: lets say im on a terminal window, and I just want to access /dev/ttyS0 like that... without ckermit could i do it?
[03:54] <pavs> bulmer no I have setup an ftp server, I want to know whats the local folder where the FTP files are located. :)
[03:54] <littlegator> Broam: You wouldn't happen to know how to sync my RAZR with a Windows XP system, would you? >_>
[03:54] <Xenguy> pavs: check the main config file
[03:55] <Icehawk78> I'm trying to FTP into my box from Windows, and I'd like to be able to FTP files into the /var/www/uploads folder, but my FTP uploads files into the /home/nicholas folder. Is there a way to make something like a shortcut?
[03:55] <Frogzoo> SurfnKid: 'sudo cat /dev/ttyS0 ; & echo blah > /dev/ttyS0'
[03:55] <bulmer> pavs: which ftp daemon/server you are using? it surely has its own config file
[03:55] <SurfnKid> a ok
[03:55] <sethk> littlegator, you can download a sync program from the motorola web site
[03:55] <pavs> bulmer I am kinda newbe so I am learning everyday, once I get bored with apache I will try out tomcat
[03:55] <Icehawk78> I tried making a link with ln -s, but Windows can't see that.
[03:55] <littlegator> sethk thanks
[03:55] <pavs> ok checking main config BRB
[03:55] <Frogzoo> SurfnKid: speed still needs to be set - use 'setserial'
[03:55] <EnsignRedshirt> unop: According to /var/log/syslog, for about the last 2 hours, dhclient has been making DHCPREQUESTs about 4 or 5 times each minute.  I don't see any requests before then.
[03:56] <unop> EnsignRedshirt,  have you restarted networking?
[03:57] <bulmer> EnsignRedshirt: did you kick the cable connecting your client to the hub/switch?
[03:57] <MAA> damn i gotta comile the kernal
[03:57] <MAA> compile
[03:57] <EnsignRedshirt> unop: As a matter of fact, I did restart networking earlier.  But I think it was more than two hours ago.
[03:57] <quaal> has anyone been able to edit their gnome menu? under applications? when i try to click on the 'show' box it does not let me ?
[03:58] <unop> EnsignRedshirt,  is the "problem" still continuing?
[03:58] <EnsignRedshirt> unop: Yes.
[03:58] <rave> hi

[04:03] <rave> hey boohbah among gentoo and edgy which one is better
[04:04] <rave> no i cant see it in boot loader
[04:04] <Xenguy> rave: gentoo =)
[04:04] <SilentDis> rave, can you see the partition at all?
[04:04] <Thehound666> best thing I can do right now. Maybe they will help to keep a customer
[04:04] <rave> ya partition is there
[04:05] <ub2> rave think you installed over  is that the case or did you partition another before
[04:05] <SilentDis> rave, preface my name to your comments.  makes it easier to track.  just type sil<tab><tab> and it'll fill in :)
[04:05] <rave> i used another partition
[04:05] <SilentDis> rave, ok, if you see the partition, what is it?  HDxx or SDxx?
[04:05] <rave> but i didnt made any partion for boot
[04:06] <tripppy> ok another easyone. how do i setup a program to start on startup?
[04:06] <emet> I can't get fglrx working :(
[04:06] <rave> its hdd6
[04:06] <EnsignRedshirt> unop: I restarted networking again, and the repeated DHCPREQUESTs have stopped.
[04:06] <Xenguy> tripppy: any particular program?

[04:06] <unop> EnsignRedshirt,  heh .. odd, aint it? :)

[04:06] <Xenguy> tripppy: what SilentDis said
[04:06] <EnsignRedshirt> unop: Ghosts...
[04:06] <cnmsale2> unop are you available
[04:06] <Thehound666> part of my feedback on fglrx
[04:06] <Thehound666> PS-Will not get another ATI card if they won't work on Linux-very frustrating.
[04:07] <unop> EnsignRedshirt,  was it for a network interface you werent using?
[04:07] <Quintin> Migration SUCCESSFUL.
[04:07] <unop> sure cnmsale2 whats happening?
[04:07] <Quintin> Thehound666: ati sux, intel rulez
[04:07] <EnsignRedshirt> unop: No, it was eth0
[04:07] <ub2> rave how are you seeing the partitions?
[04:07] <SilentDis> Thehound666, I ended up upgrading my aging ATI hardware myself.  Nice little Nvidia 8600 in there now :)
[04:07] <cnmsale2> ok i installed common-*.deb no error
[04:07] <rave> through file browser
[04:07] <Thehound666> intel? I had one way back, couldn't do any gaming
[04:07] <cnmsale2> installed utils no error
[04:07] <Thehound666> or 3D
[04:07] <unop> EnsignRedshirt,  and that is? wireless or wired? the one you use primarily?
[04:07] <tripppy> im running xubuntu. i cant see the  startup programs
[04:08] <tripppy> ive got session and startup
[04:08] <ub2> rave is it file browser on ubuntu?
[04:08] <SilentDis> tripppy, aahh, I haven't mucked with xubuntu yet, sorry :(
[04:08] <unop> cnmsale2,  address me (use tabcomplete) .. so my IRC client highlights your messages and i dont miss em :)
[04:08] <EnsignRedshirt> unop: Wired. I don't have wireless, or any other network interfaces.
[04:08] <cnmsale2> then when installing ndisgtk it says  ndisgtk: dependancy problems, but configuring anyway as you request: ndisgtk depends on utils however utils is not installed
[04:08] <rave> no it is mounted on /media hdd6
[04:08] <cnmsale2> unop k
[04:08] <unop> EnsignRedshirt,  and has the computer been on for quite something?
[04:08] <Thehound666> We greatly appreciate you taking the time to submit your feedback.
[04:08] <Thehound666> lol they say that until they read it
[04:09] <unop> EnsignRedshirt,  sometime*
[04:09] <rave> i mean /media/hdd6
[04:09] <cnmsale2> unop: then when installing ndisgtk it says  ndisgtk: dependancy problems, but configuring anyway as you request: ndisgtk depends on utils however utils is not installed
[04:09] <SilentDis> rave, if the partition with windows is all the way over on /dev/hdd6... it'll take a bit of poking to get it to work right in grub.  check the howto, I THINK it has the info you need.
[04:09] <SilentDis> !grub | rave
[04:09] <ubotu> rave: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[04:09] <unop> cnmsale2,  yep, i got that one :)
[04:09] <tripppy> ardchoille, im running xubuntu. there is no startup programs option
[04:09] <cnmsale2> unop: k
[04:09] <EnsignRedshirt> unop: I lied... ppp0 also shows up (I use a pptp vpn), but the messages in /var/log/syslog said the requests were from eth0.
[04:10] <ub2> rave can you mount the partition where xp was ?
[04:10] <rave> i have made entries in grub
[04:10] <unop> EnsignRedshirt,  liar :((
[04:10] <EnsignRedshirt> unop: Oh, and yes, the computer has been on for a relatively long time.
[04:10] <rave> but its not working
[04:10] <SilentDis> !who | rave
[04:10] <ubotu> rave: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[04:10] <EnsignRedshirt> unop: Maybe my, um, whatchamacallit IP assignment expired?
[04:11] <SilentDis> rave, what entry did you put in, and where?
[04:11] <Thehound666> think ATI will support me with all that negative feedback threatening not to buy another?
[04:11] <Paddy_EIRE> hey guys what does "fsck died" with exit status fail mean
[04:11] <unop> EnsignRedshirt,  it's likely that the DHCP lease was at  87.5% of it's lifetime, the time at which your computer tries and renews the lease and it kept trying to get the DHCP server but the server didnt bother
[04:11] <ardchoille> tripppy: It's quite diffictule to properly answer questions when we don't know the distro you are running. This is #ubuntu, therefore I assume everyone here is running Ubuntu. If you're running xubuntu, then I would assume you belong in #xubuntu.
[04:12] <rave> SilentDis i am pasting my windows entries below
[04:12] <SilentDis> Paddy_EIRE, sounds like it was doing a check during boot, and encountered problems.  did you just get this?  might have to boot from cd and manually fsck your drive

[04:12] <Paddy_EIRE> SilentDis, well when I was In win my comp locked up while playing a game and I had to reset
[04:13] <unop> cnmsale2,  :) ok -- run this command then -- sudo aptitude install ndiswrapper-utils
[04:13] <SilentDis> Paddy_EIRE, sounds like it hit an error during the reboot.  got your livecd handy?
[04:13] <Paddy_EIRE> SilentDis, then when I booted ubuntu I got that error
[04:13] <rave> SilentDi ok
[04:13] <Paddy_EIRE> SilentDis, yep, I'll be back In a mo
[04:13] <SilentDis> Paddy_EIRE, ok
[04:13] <Paddy_EIRE> :)
[04:14] <Paddy_EIRE> I hope yet another hdd hasnt died on me
[04:14] <SilentDis> rave, it looks like you'll need to 'trick' windows into thinking it's the primary drive, I believe it's called mapping, give me a moment please...
[04:14] <cnmsale2> ok its asking me to insert ubuntu cd
[04:14] <cnmsale2> doing so now
[04:14] <unop> cnmsale2,  is that machine on the internet?
[04:15] <rave> SilentDis ok
[04:15] <will_> How do I change root's password?
[04:15] <cnmsale2> no it isnt on the internet
[04:15] <subopt> Is 6.10 the same as Feisty?
[04:15] <EnsignRedshirt> unop: It looks like the lease lasts 10 hours, so your theory could be correct.
[04:15] <unop> !sudo | will_
[04:15] <ubotu> will_: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:15] <Frogzoo> SurfnKid: I think you want stty to set line speed, not setserial
[04:15] <CaptainMorgan> math
[04:15] <Securify> hi i'm new to ubuntu, I have an AMD Athlon 64 3000+ proc and wanted to know if i'm better just running the 32-bit version of ubuntu because of the lack of 64 bit linux drivers?
[04:15] <SilentDis> will_, root is not enabled by default.  you can sudo to a root environment from your main user account instead.
[04:15] <unop> cnmsale2,  ok, no worries .. continue
[04:15] <CaptainMorgan> oops
[04:15] <EnsignRedshirt> subopt: 6.10 is Edgy.
[04:16] <Frogzoo> Securify: for desktop use, stick to 32bit
[04:16] <emet> sudo -i does almost the same as su -
[04:16] <Securify> k, thx frogzoo
[04:16] <emet> except sudo -i is a bit more secure
[04:16] <cnmsale2> unop: ok it said selecting previously deslected package ndis utils
[04:16] <subopt> EnsignRedshirt: Where can i download Feisty?
[04:16] <cnmsale2> unop: did this twice from two diff dir then went to new bas line
[04:17] <Frogzoo> !feisty
[04:17] <ubotu> The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn"), it should be released in April 2007. At the moment it is alpha. Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyReleaseSchedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help in #ubuntu+1
[04:17] <unop> EnsignRedshirt,  If it's wired connections -- i set my DHCP server to let the lease time be "forever" or as long as it'll allow
[04:17] <emet> I am using fiesty
[04:17] <emet> ati is broke on it
[04:17] <unop> cnmsale2,  was it a fairly long output .. about 10 lines?
[04:17] <SilentDis> rave, you'll need to add 2 lines to your config, to map the partition to the primary for windows to boot.  see this page from the grub manual: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/DOS_002fWindows.html#DOS_002fWindows
[04:18] <AdamF2> Morning all :)  Is there a logical reason apt-index-watch is consuming large chunks of CPU-time every 3 or 4 seconds? It's the first time I've had the 'problem'.  (Edgy, 2.6.17-11-386)
[04:18] <rave> SilentDis ok
[04:18] <EnsignRedshirt> unop: I'll see if I can do that... I can't see any reason for the lease to expire.
[04:18] <cnmsale2> mmmm not really with both couting each line it was 7
[04:18] <BAbuntu> hi, im having a problem with broken packages
[04:18] <cnmsale2> unop:
[04:18] <maa468> hey i have the Ubunto 6.06 live DVD does it come with the alternate installer?
[04:18] <oritemis> guys, where I can get support for kiba-dock?
[04:19] <oritemis> I am getting compilation error.
[04:19] <BAbuntu> guys what can i do if i have brokn packages that will not allow me to install or remove anyuthing
[04:19] <unop> EnsignRedshirt,  well, the lease can expire if the DHCP server doesnt respond in a timely fashion or it denies the client an extension on the lease
[04:19] <Conman1303> i'm having a problem with my java plugins, i installed the packages via synaptic, but when i go to play yahoo games it won't work, any ideas?
[04:19] <SilentDis> BAbuntu, could you pastebin the error you're getting?
[04:19] <AdamF2> BAbuntu: Which packages is it complaining about?
[04:19] <cnmsale2> unop:  ok ran the ndis gui
[04:19] <Flannel> Conman1303: aren't yahoo games shockwave?
[04:19] <cnmsale2> installed the driver
[04:20] <cnmsale2> and now my wireless card is listed
[04:20] <BAbuntu> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2083087
[04:20] <unop> cnmsale2,  looking good :)
[04:20] <BAbuntu> im having this problem with graphviz-cairo
[04:20] <cnmsale2> ok great so go ahead and configure it for Static then
[04:20] <maa468> hey i have the Ubunto 6.06 live DVD does it come with the alternate installer?
[04:21] <BAbuntu> SilenceGold, AdamF2  any ideas
[04:21] <rave>  SilentDis  when i gave this hide (hd0,6) it said no patition
[04:21] <SilentDis> maa468, the DVD contains both the desktop and alternate installers, as well as a bunch of extra packages
[04:21] <EnsignRedshirt> subopt: Did the information from ubotu help?  You know that Feisty is not officially released yet?  Installing Feisty means you are doing beta testing (which is great!).  Check out the big green box at ubuntuforums.org about "Herd 4", the name of the latest release candidate.
[04:21] <borris_the_jeste> unity, i believe so.
[04:21] <oritemis> guys, where I can get support for kiba-dock?
[04:21] <oritemis> I am getting compilation error.
[04:21] <unop> cnmsale2,  yea, i suppose .. if you know what you are doing :)
[04:21] <maa468> SilentDis how do i use the alternate installer?
[04:21] <unity> hi, i just installed ubuntu desktop but i wanted to install ubuntu server (server install cd's were not available at the time), how can i transform ubuntu desktop into server? e.g. i want to take many things out of the startup list that i don't need
[04:21] <BAbuntu> orion2012, whats it complaining about
[04:21] <cnmsale2> lol yeah, i do
[04:21] <SilentDis> rage, grub starts counting from 0, so if it's partition 6, it needs to be specified at 0,5 :)
[04:21] <unity> uninstalling xorg is not a priority
[04:21] <cnmsale2> i got it configured no
[04:21] <cnmsale2> now
[04:22] <SilentDis> maa468, when you boot, there's an option for 'text based' or the like, i believe :)
[04:22] <daum> anyone here have a working JRE herE?
[04:22] <maa468> ahh i see
[04:22] <maa468> thanks
[04:22] <AdamF2> BAbuntu, just looking at the page. Although resolving issues isn't my speciality, I'd try compiling it from source if you're having problems with the package. It's obviously b0rked.
[04:22] <cnmsale2> unop: will blacklisting the free drivers be nessicary?
[04:22] <unop> unity,  was that kubuntu or ubuntu?
[04:22] <unity> unop: ubuntu
[04:22] <unity> borris_the_jeste: what was that in response to?
[04:22] <unop> cnmsale2,  I shouldnt think so
[04:22] <cnmsale2> ok then, i will continue with the wiki
[04:23] <cnmsale2> either way I will be back in a bit to let you know what has happene
[04:23] <cnmsale2> thank you for your help
[04:23] <merlin2049er> hi, my xwindows fails to load, how do i reset my video display
[04:23] <AdamF2> So anyone have any wild theories as to why apt-index-watch is going mad every few seconds, consuming 100% cpu, then sleeping for 4 seconds and doing it all again?
[04:23] <unity> unop: like on gentoo, i would do "rc-update remove gdm default" to stop the welcome screen
[04:23] <SilentDis> BAbuntu, looks like something got stuck with that package.  if you're willing to orphan it for now so you can get apt back to a workable state, you can restore an old sources.list file, i believe
[04:23] <unity> unop: not sure what the equivalent on ubuntu is
[04:23] <Paddy_EIRE> SilentDis: ok Im on the LiveCD
[04:23] <SilentDis> Paddy_EIRE, wb :)
[04:23] <unop> unity,  you can follow the instructions here on remove gnome totally - http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde - i'd suggest removing the xorg packages too with this command  sudo aptitude remove $(aptitude search xorg | cut -c 3-30 | xargs)
[04:24] <maa468> gonna go try out my ubuntu
[04:24] <oritemis> guys, please take a look into this compilation error? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6333/
[04:24] <unop> unity,  ohh err, so you want to disable the GUI boot, is that all??
[04:24] <SilentDis> Paddy_EIRE, ok, which drive did it fail on?
[04:24] <Zilus> hi
[04:24] <BAbuntu> it is the old one
[04:24] <BAbuntu> the default one
[04:24] <Paddy_EIRE> SilentDis: i only have 1 now, ahh hd0 ithink
[04:24] <Paddy_EIRE> oh
[04:25] <Paddy_EIRE> SilentDis: hda1
[04:25] <HarunAs-Sami> When I go to System -> Quit, I no longer have the option to shutdown, just options for logging off and switching users, etc. Why is this?
[04:25] <unity> unop: rather than deleting them, just taking them out of the default init runlevel should be enough
[04:25] <unop> unity,  on debian/ubuntu the command is "update-rc.d" -- it can be used to disable gdm too
[04:25] <Dustyhawk> hello people, got a question. I just installed ubuntu dapper (after much hate of windows). right now im trying to change my hdd's file permission but it's denying me. though im the only user for this laptop.
[04:25] <SilentDis> BAbuntu, in /etc/apt, there's sources.list and sources.list~.  you should be able to backup the current one, then copy that ~ one over .
[04:25] <Zilus> guys, I am tired of reding bcm43xx tutorials and cant make my wireless card to work
[04:25] <unity> unop: and i might come back asking what else i can disable, like setting console font for example
[04:26] <SilentDis> Paddy_EIRE, ok.  from a prompt, use this command:  sudo fsck -f -C /dev/hda1
[04:26] <unop> unity,  errm, not if you disable just the gdm from the runlevels no
[04:26] <rave> SilentDis  makeactive  is saying Error 12: Invalid device requested
[04:26] <BAbuntu> SilentDis, testing
[04:26] <Xenguy> Dustyhawk: prepend the word 'sudo' to your command, but be careful as you are now giving commands as root/superuser
[04:26] <SilentDis> rave, please pastebin your current grub config, and a quick note about what you're looking to do, I think i'll have to actually 'see' it to help :)
[04:27] <Zilus> I alredy try de ndiswrapper method and the cutter one, Can someone help me please, I understand taht this kind of questions have you already tired :( but I promise that I tried a lot
[04:27] <SilentDis> !pastebin | rave
[04:27] <ubotu> rave: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[04:27] <cnmsale2> unop: ok i ran sudo modprobe ndiswrapper and it stated warning etc/modprobe.d/blacklist line 27: ignoring bad line starting with 'blacklist'
[04:27] <Paddy_EIRE> SilentDis: i know ur busy but out of interest what do the -f -c switches do
[04:27] <SilentDis> Paddy_EIRE, -f forces a check.  -C gives  you that nice little progress bar :)
[04:28] <Paddy_EIRE> cool
[04:28] <patrialt> is there any way to make the equivilent to a windows shortcut on my Ubuntu desktop?
[04:28] <unop> cnmsale2, errm, wait a minute-- if the ndis-gui has already detected your card, it means the drivers/modules have already been modprobed
[04:28] <cnmsale2> unop: i also ran tail /var/log/messages and the only error i see is ndiswrapper setting encryption mode to 0 failed
[04:28] <SilentDis> patrialt, yep.  right click, and choose 'create launcher' :)
[04:28] <patrialt> k ty
[04:28] <cnmsale2> ok, well I was just doing what the wiki said
[04:28] <unop> cnmsale2,  yea, it looks like you've already modprobed the driver or it is sticking from the last time you tried to install ndisrapper
[04:28] <EnsignRedshirt> unop: I can't set the lease to last forever, but it is now set for 30 days... much longer than this computer remains turned on.  Thanks for your help.
[04:29] <patrialt> silentdis only option im getting is "create archive"
[04:29] <unop> EnsignRedshirt,  :)
[04:29] <Dustyhawk> xen - what else do i do after the "sudo"
[04:29] <cnmsale2> well like i said it shows hardware and drivers present and installed
[04:29] <SilentDis> patrialt, you have to right click on the DESKTOP, not the icon you want to shortcut to :)
[04:29] <patrialt> oic xD
[04:29] <patrialt> Thanks Silentdis
[04:29] <Zilus> someone?
[04:29] <SilentDis> patrialt, nt :)
[04:29] <Zilus> :(
[04:30] <SilentDis> Zilus, it's a busy channel, please repost your question
[04:30] <BAbuntu> SilentDis, E: graphviz-cairo: subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 127
[04:30] <kurt> ok anyone know ati drivers in ubuntu ?
[04:30] <Xenguy> Dustyhawk: what are you trying to do?
[04:30] <kurt> i tried almost everything
[04:30] <unop> cnmsale2,  errm, if you browse the wiki .. you should be able to find a section on connecting to the access point, it should be safe to carry on from there on
[04:30] <merlin2049er> ati drivers suck for ubuntu
[04:30] <kurt> i noticed
[04:30] <kurt> the graphical installer crashed out
[04:30] <SilentDis> BAbuntu, aargh, then it's the same problem in the backup too.  not sure what to do for that one, it'll probably take a bit of editing of the sources.list file itself, which is WAY over my head.  sorry :(
[04:30] <unop> BAbuntu,  use a !pastebin (dont paste in here) the output you see there
[04:30] <trinkolade> I know ATI-Drivers, as far as I remember, there are some!
[04:30] <merlin2049er> i bet u can't log off correctly
[04:31] <SilentDis> !ati
[04:31] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto

[04:31] <kurt> i tried from the add/remove
[04:31] <BAbuntu> unop, it was a one liner dont worry i dont flood
[04:31] <kurt> oho
[04:31] <Zilus> SilenceGold: I already read a lot of tutorials about bcm43xx and I still cant make it work
[04:31] <Paddy_EIRE> SilentDis: everything appears to have passed
[04:31] <Paddy_EIRE> :)
[04:31] <Dustyhawk> xen well right now my c:\ permission is all READ Only. but Write and Execute cannot be checked. it states "permission could not be changed"
[04:31] <Zilus> sorry, SilentDis
[04:31] <unop> BAbuntu,  is this a result of a command?
[04:31] <SilentDis> Paddy_EIRE, there's no other partitions on the machine?
[04:31] <Paddy_EIRE> yeah
[04:31] <Paddy_EIRE> SilentDis: the windowsxp one
[04:32] <BAbuntu> unop, no im trying to apt-install stuff and it says i have 2 broken packages
[04:32] <unop> Dustyhawk,  linux does not provide write access to windows/ntfs partitions out of the box, you need !ntfs-3g
[04:32] <kurt> nights in white satin
[04:32] <cnmsale2> unop:  ok but i need to make sure im able to view pages before i do sudo ndiswrapper -m right?
[04:32] <unop> !ntfs-3g | Dustyhawk
[04:32] <ubotu> Dustyhawk: ntfs-3g is is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. It has been extensively tested but is still BETA software, so use it with caution. Installation instructions at http://lunapark6.com/?p=1710 (Dapper) and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009/ (Edgy)
[04:32] <SilentDis> Paddy_EIRE, ok, if it didn't error out, your next boot should be just fine.  any problems it found were corrected without user intervention :)
[04:32] <BAbuntu> graphviz-cairo and totemstreamer
[04:32] <newk> Hey, I'm new to ubuntu and Linux in general....
[04:32] <kurt> by the by anyone "rediscovering" moody blues must be pretty old
[04:32] <newk> And I have a problem
[04:32] <SilentDis> newk, ask away :)
[04:32] <Dustyhawk> unop . many thanks i'll look into that
[04:32] <newk> I'm trying to download the package for GNU robots
[04:33] <newk> But it says that it can't find the package
[04:33] <Paddy_EIRE> SilentDis: is there anyway to check the win partition using the ubuntu livecd
[04:33] <SilentDis> Paddy_EIRE, is it an NTFS drive?
[04:33] <newk> I'm using "sudo apt-get install
[04:33] <rave> SilentDis i have pasted it
[04:33] <unop> BAbuntu,  so you must have quite some output at the command line there right? thats what i asked you to pastebin :p
[04:33] <SilentDis> rave, url?
[04:33] <BAbuntu> unop, one second
[04:33] <Paddy_EIRE> SilentDis: i have ntfs write
[04:33] <unop> cnmsale2,  errm, i'm not sure what ndiswrapper -m does -- i've never used it personally -- what does it do?
[04:33] <rave> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6336/
[04:34] <cnmsale2> it makes it start at boot up everytime
[04:34] <EnsignRedshirt> Did ubuntuforums.org just become unavailable for anyone else?
[04:34] <trinkolade> Dustyhawk, if you want a partition to share files, you will probably want to take a look at the ext2-drivers for Win-XP, they work well for me
[04:34] <SilentDis> Paddy_EIRE, the live CD doesn't ;)  you can check it next you're in your main system (without the live cd) by unmounting the drive and doing the same command
[04:34] <oritemis> hey, may someone /please/ help me with? I already googled a lot, and nothing.
[04:34] <vote4arealclown> any want to recommond a app to burn dvds with?
[04:35] <Dustyhawk> hmm. i actually used the live-cd installed and chose the..what was it... delete partition thingy
[04:35] <BAbuntu> unop, this same problem exactlty http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2083087
[04:35] <Dustyhawk> its not even an ntfs hdd
[04:36] <trinkolade> Dustyhawk, sry, what are you looking for?
[04:36] <unop> BAbuntu,  heh, i cant get to ubuntuforums.org -- seems down from here
[04:36] <Xenguy> Dustyhawk: if it is FAT32 then linux can read it and write to it
[04:36] <unop> cnmsale2,  thats fine to do then -- yep
[04:37] <cnmsale2> ok then is there a network manager in ubuntu that shows you available wireless connections?
[04:37] <merlin2049er> how do i fix my video display, xwindows doesnt start ?
[04:37] <Dustyhawk> xen - file type says Extended 3
[04:37] <BAbuntu> unop, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6337/

[04:38] <Xenguy> Dustyhawk: if you type 'xen' then hit TAB to complete the nick, I will actually notice your comments in this channel :-)
[04:38] <unop> BAbuntu,  ok, what you need to do is edit this file and comment out the line that says "set -e" (add a # to the beginning of the line) - /var/lib/dpkg/info/graphviz-cairo.postrm
[04:38] <Xenguy> Dustyhawk: ext3 is a linux filesystem type

[04:39] <dez> How do I get a wireless card (benkin f5v7000) working with ubuntu 6.10?
[04:39] <trinkolade> Dustyhawk, I don't know exactly what you mean, but it should work with remounting the partition with "-o exec, rw"
[04:39] <unop> rave,  http://pastebin.ca/348620
[04:39] <MAA> no good man, it didn't detect my raid

[04:39] <unop> sunexplodes,  looks down from here
[04:39] <EnsignRedshirt> sunexplodes: I can't get in either.
[04:39] <Xenguy> sunexplodes: I dunno, what is the URL
[04:40] <Paddy_EIRE> thx SilentDis :)
[04:40] <sunexplodes> cool, glad to hear it's not a problem on my end
[04:40] <Xenguy> heh
[04:40] <Dustyhawk> remount ? so .. i just typed out "-o exec, rw" on the terminal ? (minus the " " of course)
[04:40] <unop> dez,  is that a USB or PCI card
[04:40] <ub2> rave on your paste do not see where you made changes sil ask? did you?
[04:40] <unop> ?
[04:41] <EnsignRedshirt> sunexplodes: It's back.
[04:41] <sunexplodes> fantastic.
[04:41] <rave> ub2 wat u mean???
[04:42] <ub2> rave am following along so as to not confuse.. did you change to hide or trick windows?
[04:42] <SilentDis> rave, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6338/
[04:43] <trinkolade> Dustyhawk, no, unmount the partition with "umount partition" and the re-mount it again with "mount -t $filesystemtype /dev/hdx /mount/point -o exec,rw" but usually there is an automounter installed which mounts the partition automatically with predefined options. Try to edit your fstab or whatever. Have you read tutorials on it?
[04:43] <unop> cnmsale2,  how'e you getting on? any luck ?
[04:43] <cnmsale2> nah
[04:43] <cnmsale2> lol
[04:43] <cnmsale2> i just installed network manager

[04:44] <Trixsey> Is it possible to install recommended modules as part of a package, but not the entire package?
[04:45] <Dustyhawk> trinkolade: i did try that.. but it keeps saying only root can do that
[04:45] <trinkolade> Trixsey, if you specify the certain package, yes
[04:45] <unop> BAbuntu,  it working now?
[04:45] <trinkolade> Dustyhawk, yes, you have to put a sudo in front of it
[04:45] <Trixsey> trinkolade, ok.. how?
[04:45] <BAbuntu> u commented out set and dot
[04:46] <cnmsale2> unop: ifconfig shows wlan0 is recieveing packets but not sending

[04:46] <Trixsey> without gcj
[04:46] <unop> cnmsale2,  ok, looks like its working ok then - might be an IP addressing issue -- can you ping your own IP address?
[04:47] <cnmsale2> how to do from terminal?
[04:47] <trinkolade> Trixsey, that won't work, because Eclipse needs gcj as far as I know, but let me see first
[04:47] <cnmsale2> shouldnt be an ip adress issue, i have dhcp in router off
[04:47] <unop> Trixsey,  I believe that'd be close to impossible -- eclipse is so tied in with gcj, it wouldnt operate without it
[04:47] <Trixsey> trinkolade, I checked about an hour ago.. said it was just suggested package
[04:47] <cnmsale2> this same machine on xp was set up with an ip of <IP_ADDRESS> sm <IP_ADDRESS> and gw <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:47] <Trixsey> recommended
[04:47] <cnmsale2> dns is <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:48] <unop> cnmsale2,  ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:48] <kurt> ok...
[04:48] <kurt> here we go again
[04:48] <cnmsale2> net unreachable, but unop I havent told it to connect to my wireless conection point yet
[04:48] <cnmsale2> so
[04:49] <majortom> if i tar something and i tell it --exclude=./.*, would that not exclude config files
[04:49] <unop> cnmsale2,  ahh, right, so that needs to be done before anything else
[04:50] <cnmsale2> unop: yeah
[04:50] <cnmsale2> but dont know how to do that
[04:50] <quaal> does anyone use the electric sheep screensaver?
[04:50] <unop> majortom,  only if those config files exist in that directory and have filenames that begin with a .
[04:50] <cnmsale2> i would prefer a gui for that
[04:50] <SiliconViper> quaal, I do.
[04:50] <majortom> unop, right ok but would that include directories name .*
[04:50] <quaal> SilenceGold, where do you put the sheep?
[04:50] <trinkolade> Trixsey, does it install the recommended packages?
[04:51] <cnmsale2> got it unop
[04:51] <cnmsale2> friend had me run nm-applet
[04:51] <SiliconViper> Hmm... I wonder how useful it would be to stream data over an audio patch cable. Line Out on one system to Line In on another.
[04:51] <cnmsale2> bingo
[04:51] <unop> majortom,  aye -- if you do echo .* you should see it globbed
[04:51] <oritemis> guys, to compile kiba-dock I need some dev tools, where I can get the complet list of this dev tools?
[04:51] <SiliconViper> quaal, ~/.sheep
[04:52] <shark-1> how do i make my inactive windows not transparent in kde
[04:52] <Trixsey> trinkolade, yes
[04:52] <Trixsey> it does
[04:52] <majortom> well on the output it has been saying ./.Trash/whatever.file, is it still ignoring those?
[04:52] <unop> cnmsale2,  nice :D
[04:52] <Zhurichard> why i cant use Fn+f7?
[04:52] <unop> cnmsale2,  you on the net then?
[04:52] <dez> iwconfig wlan0 is telling me the wireless card is connected to the ap but for some reason it times out on the dhcp
[04:52] <trinkolade> oritemis, there should be README with the package that tells you what you need to compile it and how you compile it.
[04:52] <cnmsale2> not yet unop
[04:52] <Thehound666> when will the open ATI driver support my card, since ati themselves stink?
[04:53] <cnmsale2> wouldnt join the network
[04:53] <unop> majortom,  maybe --exclude=.* ??
[04:53] <cnmsale2> trying again
[04:53] <unop> cnmsale2,  oh ok
[04:53] <trinkolade> Trixsey, do you try to install it from synaptic?
[04:53] <majortom> unop, i will try it, thanks
[04:53] <quaal> SilenceGold, awesome
[04:53] <quaal> thankyou
[04:53] <majortom> unop, very good its working1
[04:53] <SiliconViper> quaal, anytime.
[04:53] <Trixsey> trinkolade, apt-get/aptitude
[04:53] <unop> majortom,  :)
[04:53] <Thehound666> I really need to get this working. My VMWare expires soon
[04:54] <Trixsey> trinkolade, synaptic is not working.. nor are apt/aptitude
[04:54] <Thehound666> then no more Ubuntu
[04:54] <cnmsale2> unop:  nope wont connect
[04:54] <yharrow> anybody here know the IRC command for adding a real name to a  profile
[04:54] <unop> cnmsale2,  when you are connecting .. what does the /var/log/messages file say?
[04:55] <unop> cnmsale2,  i'd suggesting monitoring these three files like this  tail -f /var/log/{messages,syslog,dmesg}
[04:55] <cnmsale2> ok will try that then
[04:56] <yharrow> anybody know?
[04:56] <UdontKnow> Thehound666: paying?
[04:56] <elkbuntu> yharrow, investigate nickserv with /msg nickserve help
[04:56] <yharrow> hound I beleive that there is a dedicated support available from cannonical for a fee
[04:57] <Thehound666> might have to
[04:57] <yharrow> thanks elk
[04:57] <Thehound666> noone has solved this issue in 2 months
[04:57] <UdontKnow> Thehound666: there are a ton of companies that might support you if you pay :)
[04:57] <HarunAs-Sami> When I go to System -> Quit, I no longer have the option to shutdown, just options for logging off and switching users, etc. Why is this?
[04:57] <UdontKnow> Thehound666: google around
[04:57] <shoumik> hi, online everything is confusing. Can someone give me an easy app i can use to add and remove songs from 1g ipod nano
[04:57] <elkbuntu> yharrow, without the e.. sorry /msg nickserv help
[04:57] <Thehound666> I did
[04:57] <Thehound666> found unanswered forum posts
[04:57] <yharrow> ok
[04:57] <Thehound666> for my card
[04:58] <Thehound666> that doesn't give me much hope
[04:58] <puff> In aptitude, how do I list what pckages depend on a given package?
[04:58] <musya> anybody know  of a program to read rar files?
[04:58] <puff> In aptitude, how do I list what pckages depend on a given package?
[04:58] <cnmsale2> unop:  i see the problem i think, it is saying dhcpdiscover on wlan0 but im  not using dhcp
[04:59] <cables> puff, hold on.
[04:59] <jumpkick> er...  anyone interested in helping me finish an Ubuntu Chroot install script for Zimbra?   It's pretty well done, but I need some ssh expertise to help me get the key-exchange-login thing working for the admin console....
[04:59] <puff> musya: I'm sure they exist, I remember coming across that format last year.
[04:59] <ub2> rave did that fix finding windows?
[04:59] <rumbleca> does the  Ubuntu edgy cdromupgrade script actually work?I think it's still using the network
[04:59] <unop> cnmsale2,  did you mention assigning the interface an address??
[04:59] <cables> puff, "aptitude show <packagename> | grep Depends"
[04:59] <cnmsale2> unop:  yes i have set static info up
[04:59] <cnmsale2> let me double check just to be certain
[05:00] <oritemis> I am trying to understand what this meand, someone have a idea? checking for KIBA_DOCK... configure: error: Package requirements ("glib-2.0 >= 2.8.0 gobject-2.0 gtk+-2.0 >= 2.8.0 cairo >= 1.0.0 pango >= 1.10.0 pangocairo >= 1.10.0 gconf-2.0 >= 2.0.0 libgtop-2.0 >= 2.0.0 libglade-2.0 >= 2.5.1") were not met:
[05:00] <puff> cables: Thanks.
[05:00] <musya> so any names?
[05:00] <cnmsale2> i also see an Iactivation wlan0 failed and static is entered corrctly
[05:00] <puff> musya: sudo aptitude install rar unrar
[05:01] <cnmsale2> unop:  also seeing a setting AP mac address failed
[05:01] <cnmsale2> i do have mac filtering for wireless turned on in the router
[05:01] <cnmsale2> but the MAC is the same as it was on windows
[05:01] <factboy818181> i'm trying to record sound on my computer, but the mix channel has no sound - i've enabled mix in GNOME alsa mixer, any ideas?
[05:01] <puff> cables: Okay, how do I figure out which package installed a given file?
[05:02] <unop> cnmsale2,  you havent made changes to MAC addresses, have you?
[05:02] <jumpkick> http://stacktrace.org/index_html/20070212-Zimbra-on-Ubuntu64 -- Zimbra (http://www.zimbra.com/) chroot install (works for i386 or AMD64)...  need help applying SSH key instructions @http://wiki.zimbra.com/index.php?title=Mail_Queue_Monitoring#Common_Errors to the script in a chroot environment (where SSH lives outside the chroot)
[05:02] <cnmsale2> nope
[05:02] <trinkolade> Trixsey, mhm...okay, I don't have the clue...why doesn't synaptic work?
[05:02] <cnmsale2> not unless ndis does automatically
[05:02] <Markatrop> I have GNU/Linux installed on a Macbook here.  How does one go about enabling mouse button emulation?
[05:02] <CapaH> Question -- What is a GOOD VPN client to use for Ubuntu that has a GUI ?
[05:02] <arrenlex> How might I launch xterm so it doesn't terminate after a command exits?
[05:02] <cnmsale2> but i doubt that
[05:02] <arrenlex> !language | Markatrop
[05:02] <ubotu> Markatrop: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[05:03] <CapaH> kvpnc isn't working for some reason -- I try importing a valid p12 cert and it refuses to accept it
[05:03] <dyrne> CapaH: just use vpnc. its pretty easy
[05:03] <CapaH> .... vpnc instead of kvpnc...
[05:03] <CapaH> is that the problem?
[05:04] <dyrne> CapaH: id typed that before you mentioned the cient. yeah id say its just a front end
[05:04] <Xenguy> CapaH: openvnc may be worth a look (dunno if GUI tho)
[05:04] <CapaH> so I need vpnc and not kvpnc -- is K for KDE and vpnc = Gnome ? (I am using Gnome)
[05:04] <dyrne> arrenlex: nohup xterm&
[05:04] <unop> cnmsale2,  hmm .. hold on
[05:05] <Paddy_EIRE> hey guys what do I type in the RTCW Enemy Territory console to get out of fullscreen
[05:05] <arrenlex> dyrne: ?? em@sam:~$ nohup xterm -e echo hi
[05:05] <arrenlex> nohup: appending output to `nohup.out'
[05:05] <Xenguy> CapaH: er, openvpn
[05:05] <arrenlex> dyrne: And it still exits.
[05:05] <cnmsale2> unop:  k
[05:05] <rpc> how secure is it to use such a source of debianised 2.6.20? http://kernel-archive.buildserver.net/debian-kernel/
[05:05] <cnmsale2> unop: gunna turn DHCP on in the router real quick see if that makes a diff
[05:05] <gfah> could I request a quickie help here?
[05:05] <Xenguy> !ask
[05:05] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:06] <sethk> gfah, ask the question, then if someone knows, they'll answer
[05:06] <gfah> OK...I am here: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide
[05:06] <dyrne> arrenlex: didnt realize youre using -e. im curious about how to do that too
[05:06] <gfah> trying to get the latest ATI driver
[05:06] <dan__> hi guys, im having a big problem compiling mesa libs from cvs
[05:07] <Thehound666> the ati driver is jinxed. any way to use the Vesa driver and be able to adjust display settings?
[05:07] <dan__> everything goes through and compiles correctly, but when i make install and override the regular drivers everything gets messed up
[05:07] <Thehound666> I'll even take that
[05:07] <arrenlex> Thehound666: What problems are you having?
[05:07] <gfah> I've DL'ed it to desktop but, don't know how to Change to the download directory in terminal
[05:07] <Thehound666> the fglrx the loading bar gets full
[05:07] <Xenguy> Thehound666: vesa comes with low resolution AFAIK
[05:07] <cnmsale2> unop: ok that did it
[05:07] <arrenlex> gfah: cd ~/Desktop
[05:07] <Thehound666> then xserver seems to not start
[05:08] <cnmsale2> that sucks though, i really need a staic address in ubuntu do to some server apps i run
[05:08] <sethk> Thehound666, I can adjust display settings with ati.  Some ati boards work better than others w.r.t. linux drivers
[05:08] <arrenlex> gfah: The cd command changes directory. ~ means /home. Desktop is the name of the folder where your desktop is.
[05:08] <dan__> mostly there seems to be a lot of random texture errors and i get a ton of DISPATCH ERROR! messages
[05:08] <sethk> Thehound666, put your X log file on the paste web site
[05:08] <unop> cnmsale2,  it working tho now?
[05:08] <sethk> cnmsale2, there is no problem using a static ip with ubuntu.
[05:08] <Gon> how do i install wc3 in ubuntu?
[05:08] <cnmsale2> unop:  yeah
[05:08] <Thehound666> I am in vmware atm, it's the only way my display works at all
[05:08] <Gon> !warcraft3
[05:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about warcraft3 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:08] <cnmsale2> sethk: it isnt working properly for me
[05:08] <unop> cnmsale2,  you can configure your DHCP server to assign a lease to your forever (or something close) and that should make it semi-static
[05:08] <cnmsale2> DHCP works fine
[05:09] <quaal> SilenceGold, where do i access the electric sheep program?
[05:09] <cnmsale2> unop: yeah but that doesnt help should the machine have to be rebooted
[05:09] <Mixx> where is the list of remembered applications from the previous session stored?  (not manually set apps in .kde/Autostart)
[05:09] <quaal> its not in the screensaver list with the rest?
[05:09] <gfah> I did that but, get repeated "No such file or directory" error
[05:09] <sethk> cnmsale2, I have four machines with static ips here.  what command are you using to set the static IP?
[05:09] <quaal> er
[05:09] <Thehound666> but how would I get the log if it kills my system every time I install these drivers
[05:09] <quaal> SiliconViper i menat
[05:09] <cnmsale2> sethk: i set it in the networking gui
[05:09] <quaal> meant
[05:09] <Thehound666> only way back is removing xorg.conf
[05:09] <Thehound666> then restore
[05:09] <unop> cnmsale2,  errm, as long as you dont have a very populated network, the router should try and reserve that IP address for you
[05:10] <unop> cnmsale2,  how many machines on the network?
[05:10] <dan__> this is the output of my glxinfo: http://pastebin.com/883414
[05:10] <cnmsale2> unop: i have 3 on the network this is the only one who will be DHCP
[05:10] <sethk> cnmsale2, that should work.  try it from the command line.  the command is like this:  for (say, eth0):   ifconfig eth0 <IP_ADDRESS> netmask <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:11] <cnmsale2> I would still feel better with static though
[05:11] <sethk> cnmsale2, as root, or with sudo, of course
[05:11] <sethk> cnmsale2, it's far more common to have static work and dhcp not work, than the other way around.
[05:11] <cnmsale2> sethk: let me ask you, in nix do I need to specify my DNS#
[05:11] <cnmsale2> ?
[05:11] <sethk> cnmsale2, yes
[05:11] <dyrne> arrenlex: xterm -e "echo test&& read" but after you enter input itd still close
[05:11] <cnmsale2> ok just checking
[05:11] <sethk> cnmsale2, you can add it to file /etc/resolv.conf
[05:12] <sethk> cnmsale2, a line like:             nameserver ###.###.###.###
[05:12] <bleanna_unux> Question. I'm getting a new HDD for my server and my current HDD has files that I want to transfer to the new drive. How can I remove GRUB from my current drive so that the old drive will not boot but can be mounted by the new OS on the new drive?
[05:12] <arrenlex> dan__: What are you trying to do?
[05:12] <arrenlex> dyrne: xD That's a total hack.
[05:12] <dan__> arrenlex: im trying to compile latest mesa drivers out of cvs
[05:12] <sethk> cnmsale2, even without dns, though, you should be able to ping your gateway (by ip, not by name) after doing the ifconfig
[05:12] <cnmsale2> so to set it i would do ifconfig wlan0 <IP_ADDRESS> netmask <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:12] <cnmsale2> what is lline for GW?
[05:13] <arrenlex> dan__: why?
[05:13] <trinkolade> bleanna_unux, it shouldn't be necessary, just change the first boot device in your bios settings
[05:13] <sethk> cnmsale2, route add default gw ###.###.###.###
[05:13] <dan__> arrenlex: need some modifications to let beryl support my multi monitor setup
[05:13] <cnmsale2> and to set the dns#
[05:14] <arrenlex> dan__: It looks to me like a problem with libGL.so. Could it be?
[05:14] <sandy16> hey can any body help me out in downloading a file with wget ... where some session key generated rather than direct link
[05:14] <lisapc> i bought a new notebook. but the battery goes down by about 2% each day.  Why isnt it recharging to 100%?
[05:14] <dan__> arrenlex: most likely, since that's one of the .so files i updated when i rebuilt the drivers
[05:14] <sethk> cnmsale2, for each name server, add a line in /etc/resolv.conf of the form::          nameserver ###.###.###.###
[05:14] <bleanna_unux> trinkolade: are you sure b/c i have over 20 GB of data, which I need
[05:15] <gfah> Why do I get "Can't open ati-driver-installer-8.33.6-x86.x86_64.run" error when trying to install this ATI driver?
[05:15] <Xenguy> lisapc: sounds flaky to me - is it under warantee?
[05:15] <cnmsale2> sethk: i should only have one name server though right
[05:15] <cnmsale2> <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:15] <arrenlex> gfah: Are you on a 64-bit system?
[05:15] <gfah> no
[05:15] <sethk> cnmsale2, one, two, three are all common
[05:15] <ub2> rave  /silent  did that fix you windows missing problem?
[05:15] <arrenlex> gfah: Well then stop trying to run 64-bit binaries.
[05:15] <sethk> cnmsale2, one is fine, as long as the one never goes down
[05:16] <cnmsale2> ahhh well, its the only router i have
[05:16] <cnmsale2> it is a home network after all
[05:16] <puff> Is there a tutorial that explains the "dpkg -l" output format?
[05:16] <gfah> arrenlex, I did this one time awhile ago with same setup...odd
[05:16] <stuart> can someone help me with blocking/unblocking in firestarter?
[05:16] <Xenguy> puff: man dpkg
[05:16] <gfah> same file too
[05:16] <trinkolade> bleanna_unux, I don't know what you want to do, but the data won't be deleted if you change the boot device ;)
[05:16] <arrenlex> gfah: You have the wrong file. Look at the end: .x86_64.run
[05:16] <sethk> cnmsale2, you can use a public name server out on the net.  it won't know your local names, of course, but other than that it will work fine.
[05:16] <arrenlex> gfah: Download the 32-bit one.
[05:17] <sethk> cnmsale2, but one dns is fine, as I said, as long as that one is up and properly configured.
[05:17] <gfah> ok...let me check...thanks
[05:17] <puff> Xenguy: already looked there, can't find anything about the listing format.
[05:17] <Xenguy> puff: I usually prepend 'COLUMNS=200' to 'dpkg -l' commands as it improves the output
[05:17] <gfah> this is one ati has for 32bit
[05:17] <Xenguy> puff: FWIW
[05:17] <bleanna_unux> trinkolade: yeah i know :) but im concerned that maybe the boot partitions might conflict
[05:17] <Gon> do you guys know how to run wc3 with wine?
[05:18] <trinkolade> bleanna_unux, what do you want to do?
[05:18] <EnsilZah> Can someone please help me?   I've just installed edgy and the screen looks like this when i get to the logon screen: http://img120.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenbi2.jpg
[05:18] <trinkolade> Gon, wine wc3.exe?
[05:18] <Gon> yea
[05:18] <Gon> something like that
[05:18] <Gon> lol
[05:18] <Gon> like a tutorial of some sort
[05:18] <trinkolade> Gon, take a look at linuxgamers.net
[05:18] <gfah> arrenlex...go to ATI site and see...it's right one
[05:18] <arrenlex> gfah: You're right. I just did.
[05:18] <stuart> !firestarter help someone?
