[00:00] <ctmjr> chucky: try this in a terminal metacity --replace and see if it helps
[00:00] <chucky> k
[00:00] <Wikidude> chucky ; try this froma terminal , sudo apt-get --purge remove compiz compiz-core
[00:01] <SirDidi> heoa, have you read man screen ?
[00:01] <ldlework> Hi I've got an NTFS partition that is automounted on boot. However I can't chown the drive's directories to anything other than root. Is this because it is NTFS?
[00:03] <chucky> ctmjr, metacity not istalled
[00:03] <chucky> Wikidude, not installed so removed is what it says
[00:04] <chucky> maximize mini minimize n close icons do not work anymore
[00:04] <Wikidude> chucky : To begin with , did you restart your computer after kicking out compiz , at least once
[00:04] <chucky> Wikidude, yes
[00:04] <heoa> SirDidi: always a good idea! Thank you :)
[00:04] <SirDidi> np :)
[00:05] <heoa> SirDidi: found the solution C-a k :)
[00:05] <chucky> Wikidude, windows are docked onto the top panel..not detachable as a result
[00:05] <SirDidi> heoa, nice :)
[00:06] <Wikidude> chucky : Try this ,  dpkg -S /usr/bin/compiz-decorator , it will track down which package causes the trouble so we can uninstall them
[00:06] <Kha0sK1d> anyone know any dns servers capable of keeping cache even after reboot?
[00:07] <ldlework> This is a funny question but is there anyway I can convert my NTFS filesystem to Ext3 inplace!?
[00:07] <Wikidude> Kha0sK1d :Open DNS
[00:07] <chucky> Wikidude, not found...
[00:07] <Wikidude> Idlework : Oh sure but you will lose your data
[00:07] <Kha0sK1d> Wikidude, thanks!
[00:07] <chucky> Wikidude, i guess all of it is removed
[00:08] <Wikidude> chuck  : Wait and let me make some research
[00:08] <chucky> Wikidude, ok..roger
[00:09] <Zeno> im trying to use a dlink wireless adapter in ubuntu i use one for my desktop im currently trying to use one for my older laptop when i did this with my desktop it was just plug n play my laptop isnt doing anything not even lighting the adapter up at all its a dlink dwa125
[00:09] <chucky> Wikidude, any way of gettin back the window manager on the xfce4 settings manager shall do..
[00:09] <Zeno> i cant really find any info online if anyone can help me out it'd be appreciated
[00:10] <ctmjr> chucky: type this in a terminal see what you get xfwm4
[00:11] <chucky> ctmjr, ok..1 sec
[00:13] <ldlework> Can anyone explain to me why I can't chown anything on this NTFS drive?
[00:13] <ubca> IdleOne-> perms on ntfs is diff from linux yes?
[00:14] <Wikidude> chucky ; Ah hidden files , try this *rm .compiz -r* *rm .config/compiz -r* , they are 2 different commands , and they will remove the compiz configurations
[00:14] <r3l1c1> why is it that when I ran apt-get remove lamp-server^ apt also removed ubuntu-desktop ?
[00:14] <Wikidude> chucky : Remove that asterisk though
[00:14] <ubca> Zeno-> which chip does it have on the wifi card?
[00:15] <chucky> Wikidude, 1 sec
[00:15] <ab2qik> Hi, does anyone know about using conexant sound card on jaunty?
[00:15] <ubca> r3l1c1-> i think it is okay
[00:15] <ab2qik> sound plays but its distorted.
[00:15] <r3l1c1> ubca:  what line of thought makes you think that?
[00:15] <ubca> it does not really remove ubuntu-desktop completely
[00:16] <chucky> Wikidude, thanx a billion it worked..
[00:16] <ubca> r3l1c1-> its the meta.. i dont what it is called thats remove but not the package itself
[00:16] <Hub_cap> Attempting to install 9.10 alpha over 9.04 but it wants to start fresh rather that upgrade. Is this correct?
[00:16] <chucky> ctmjr, thanx man..juranamoooww
[00:16] <Wikidude> chucky : no problem dude
[00:16] <ubca> Hub_cap-> please visit #ubuntu+1 for 9.10
[00:16] <Hub_cap> roger
[00:16] <chucky> Wikidude, roger cathya later
[00:17] <r3l1c1> It removed hp printing and several other things .. hal-cups, pulse? the question is why?
[00:17] <r3l1c1> The meta package lamp-server has nothing to do with the desktop
[00:17] <Wikidude> r3l1c1 : You can just reinstall them though
[00:18] <StupidWeasel> If I install windows 7 alongside Ubuntu in the future, it will need to be a on a primary partition?
[00:18] <r3l1c1> great I can reinstall them, but what is the deal? why is it happening or better yet where is it happening?
[00:18] <Wikidude> StupidWeasel : Windows 7 needs a primary partition , while ubuntu can live anywhere
[00:18] <ubca> r3l1c1-> you have to ask the power that be, not us.  we attempt to assist you but dont know all the reasons behind such decisions
[00:19] <Wikidude> ubca : You can learn it lol
[00:19] <StupidWeasel> Mmm, ok I'll make sure to reserve a primary partition for windows.
[00:20] <ab2qik> can someone pls help with sound probs on jaunty
[00:20] <StupidWeasel> It'll probably end up being wasted space, as I'll be too lazy to go through the install =P
[00:20] <Wikidude> !sound > ab2qik
[00:21] <Wikidude> StupidWeasel : Why try windows when you can get linux from about thousands of sources
[00:21] <StupidWeasel> Purely for gaming.
[00:21] <ldlework> Is there anyway I can give write/read permissions to my NTFS drive so doing things like "extract here" doesn't throw permission errors, etc?
[00:22] <StupidWeasel> Not *everything* works perfectly in WINE. Else I'd not look back.
[00:22] <Wikidude> StupidWeasel : Windows 7 is still new and quite a lot of games don't work there
[00:22] <StupidWeasel> Sadly I barely game at all these days. And not true =P
[00:22] <ctmjr> !ntfs | ldlework might help am not sure
[00:22] <StupidWeasel> Only one game I did not managed to get working with the windows 7 beta.
[00:23] <StupidWeasel> *-d
[00:24] <Wikidude> IdleOne : Can you make your question clear , I am a little confused
[00:24] <StupidWeasel> But yea, perfectly content with using 'nix for everything else. And also happy to WINE any games that will let me.
[00:25] <IdleOne> Wikidude soon as I ask one :)
[00:25] <FuzZyLoGic_> StupidWeasel: You tried using VirtualBox or VM ware?
[00:25] <chucky> Wikidude, how do i unmount a removable drive from the terminal
[00:25] <afink> Could someone help me with the rsync command I would use to setup a private ubuntu mirror?  I am testing a PXE server and would like to use a local repo.  Thanks
[00:25] <Xodiac13> StupidWeasel: have you tried out playonlinux its a good progam to use on playing games in wine trust me its good
[00:26] <Xodiac13> StupidWeasel: www.playonlinux.com
[00:26] <Wikidude> IdleOne : Ah sorry dude , it was Idlework I was trying to get to
[00:26] <StupidWeasel> Mmhmm, the directx support for anything fancy is terrible. Although the new VirtualBox is looking promising :)
[00:26] <StupidWeasel> And yea, I've used Playonlinux. Thanks though Xodiac.
[00:26] <chucky> Wikidude, how do i unmount a removable drive from the terminal
[00:26] <Wikidude> chunky : is it a artition

[00:36] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: oh.. in 8.10  it does not work 9.04 it does.. also in 8.10 3d fails to work well regardless of the driver used. it is a known issue. 9.04 fixed it
[00:37] <Wikidude> chucky : Can't you manually unmount  it
[00:37] <chucky> Wikidude, remove the usb drive ?
[00:37] <glicks> hey, does anyone have a logitech quickcam pro 9000?
[00:37] <chucky> Wikidude, backup is what is scary...
[00:37] <ctmjr> Xodiac13: did you try adding this to your /etc/X11/xorg.cong file    Option          "AccelMethod"   "ShadowFB" it should go under device under the line driver
[00:37] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: okay i have 9.04 clean install someone from here told me to use the radeonhd and now i have 3d but its slow what did you do to get it to work can you help me please i am desperate

[00:44] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: http://pastebin.com/m33c56862
[00:44] <ubca> kennyG_-> lets try to boot from your existing install first, at grub use S or recovery mode to get into single user mode,
[00:45] <glicks> i have a logitech quickcam pro 9000, and the webcam works fine under cheese, however, when i try to use the microphone for audacity or gnome-recorder, audacity says it "Cant open the device"  in the gnome sound control, the webcam microphone shows up as muted, and if I click to unmute it, it just shows up as muted again when I close the volume control and open it again
[00:45] <kennyG_> ubca, I don't have this machine here with me :P
[00:45] <chucky> Wikidude, thats another computer btw..
[00:46] <pmitros> How stable is Karmic at the moment? I'm running into a couple of obscure X bugs that may be fixed in Karmic, so I'm thinking of upgrading.
[00:46] <chucky> Wikidude, im on a thinkpad
[00:46] <bazhang> pmitros, discussion of karmic in #ubuntu+1
[00:46] <ubca> kennyG_-> then how are you going to try it if not nearby?
[00:46] <pmitros> I'll try that. Thanks.
[00:47] <kennyG_> ubca, lather on I will go back home. :)
[00:47] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: system>admin>hardware drivers  ..do you see any drivers for you video card?
[00:47] <ubca> kennyG_-> when you get home, thats the time we can try it..
[00:47] <mgv1> how can i disable tor that isn't really working anyway and shown in the firewall interface?
[00:47] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: its not there
[00:48] <kennyG_> ubca, but I won't be able to access Internet at home.
[00:48] <wikidude__> chucky : the first command should have done it lol . I'm poorly confused . Do you know where it is mounted .( mount point)
[00:48] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: the only time i see it is in 8.10
 but how can i accsses wep from the list of connections?
[00:48] <ubca> kennyG_-> you dont need internet access to reset your root password
[00:48] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: okay, in terminal type: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-radeon
[00:48] <chucky> Wikidude, will just shut down..thanx anyways....mounted at /media
[00:49] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: its done
[00:49] <Hacksmith> Hello all
[00:49] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: i have already installed it
[00:49] <kennyG_> ubca, I know but first I need to understand what I need to do.
[00:49] <ctmjr> mgv1: your trying to connect to a wep wireless connection?
[00:49] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: then you're using it if you have restart X.. have you logged out then back in?
[00:49] <Hacksmith> First time connecting, how do I learn the commands?? Took me like an hour to get here.
[00:50] <wikidude__> chucky : umount -l /media/
[00:50] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: yeah i also had to put some stuff in the xorg i have 3d but its slow the games that i use to play that are for linux run really slow
[00:50] <PerryArmstrong> i installed kubuntu...and with 4 desktops i find that if i open a window in a desktop its visible in all other desktops...how can i solve this?
[00:50] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: and i know my video card will have no problem handling it
[00:50] <ubca> kennyG_-> boot from the installed base, but go into recovery or single user mode, then modify /etc/shadow or i believe if you type passwd that will allow you to change it
[00:51] <blunder> !ufw
[00:51] <wikidude__> PerryArmstrong : Do you have desktop effects enabled in kubuntu
[00:51] <PerryArmstrong> wikidude_; yes
[00:52] <PerryArmstrong> Blizzerand; yes
[00:52] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: try disabling compiz before starting a game?
[00:52] <blunder> hey does enabling ufw create a client ruleset by default
[00:52] <kennyG_> ub
[00:52] <kennyG_> ubca, sounds good enough but I am afraid it is a kind of complex step for me.
[00:52] <Blizzerand> PerryArmstrong : Disable them for time being and try again
[00:52] <AbyssV3> With Ubuntu server, if there is no cron.allow or cron.deny file, does crontab run for every user, or no users?
[00:52] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: its not enabled ive tried getting it to work and it said it cant enable it what did you tell me to put in the xorg file to make it run faster
[00:53] <PerryArmstrong> Blizzerand; you mean the compiz
[00:53] <RogerW> sup?
[00:53] <aleron6> does anybody know if alsa has its own channel
[00:53] <eucalre> Hello
[00:53] <ubca> kennyG_-> may i suggest then you read tutorials on  recovering linux systems, or root password..  there are tutorials available you can read up
[00:53] <eddy> blunder, i don't believe so, but you can install 'gufw' to manage ufw and access through System > Admin > Firewall config...
[00:53] <Blizzerand> PerryArmstrong : k thought you used kwin , no  compiz might not be the cause
[00:53] <blunder> ok thank you very much....
[00:54] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: i didn't tell you anything to put in xorg.conf . without compiz enabled  3d works without slow down for me. the only slowness that i see with compiz is cursor movement.
[00:54] <webbb82> TG Webbb\
[00:54] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: uh do you want me to pastebin the out put of my xorg and so you can see if im missing anything
[00:54] <AbyssV3> With Ubuntu server, if there is no cron.allow or cron.deny file, does crontab run for every user, or no users? Anyone know?

[00:55] <PerryArmstrong> Blizzerand; sure
[00:55] <kennyG_> ubca, fine. no problem, I will try doing what you adviced me. If I can't solve the case I will be here with the machine at my side.

[01:02] <eddy> also, i don't get bothered by the keyring manager
[01:02] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: okay its restarted
 i will try elsewhere
 thanks
[01:03] <eddy> mgv1, airocrack-ng
[01:03] <eddy> ctmjr, haha sorry couldn't resist
[01:03] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: pastebin the output of lsb_release -a
[01:04] <ubca> Aijse-> you're trying to resolve an ip address you registered through dyndns?  why not go directly and check their dns if your address is resolvable?
[01:04] <Blizzerand> !totem
[01:04] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: http://pastebin.com/m5f322750
 thank you but how do i install?
[01:05] <carpediem> is the ubuntu ppa keyserver down?  anyone know
[01:05] <ctmjr> eddy: yea but then he will be in here asking how to fix his wireless card that no longer works
[01:05] <PerryArmstrong> Blizzerand; it happens with all apps including browser
[01:05] <aj_444> I deleted the top panel of GNOME, and I was wondering how I add that wireless applet to the lower panel?
[01:06] <Aijse> unca, I do know what my adresses are, I'm just not sure if I should inform apache about the external adress and if yes where I should
[01:06] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: okay, now you should be fine. just for the sake of it.. pastebin xorg.conf ..i am hoping it is empty
[01:06] <AbyssV3> Aijse: You running any virtual host settings?
[01:06] <eddy> mgv1, it is in the repos so use aptitude but depending on your wifi card you will need to patch your driver
[01:06] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: k
[01:07] <Aijse> AbyssV3, yes got something configured to direct to my data disk
[01:07] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: it still has the stuff in there do you want me to delete it because i had to copy and paste all of that in there
[01:07] <eddy> ctmjr, yea you make a good point but he would eventually find out anyway. hopefully, he doesn't have a compatible card for airocrack-ng then
[01:07] <AbyssV3> Aijse: If you're using Virtual Hosts, then the site will only work on the ServerName / ServerAlias's you configured, if you access it via IP, it will instead go to the default site
[01:08] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: yes, completely remove everything in xorg.conf then restart again. at this point you should be using radeon driver and all should be well
[01:08] <BloodAdept> Hi
[01:09] <Aijse> Abyss, ah ok thnx I ll check the Servernames
[01:09] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: this is a clean install of ubuntu 9.04
[01:09] <AbyssV3> Aijse: Virtual Hosts are what give you the ability to run multiple websites on the same IP address, so <IP_ADDRESS> is different from yourwebsite.com which may be different from anotherwebsite.com
[01:09] <BloodAdept> i just installed ubuntu on my laptop and everytime i try to create a wireless connection
[01:09] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: if i were to delete and restart it wont give me the drivers i need
[01:09] <BloodAdept> it takes the 8 character pass and changes it to an extremely long pass
[01:09] <eddy> so has anyone gotten splashy to work on jaunty yet? i still run into the lsb-base error :-\
[01:10] <BloodAdept> that is not correct and will not allow me to join
[01:10] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: i am restarting it right now
[01:10] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: in 9.04 you don't have to use xorg.conf .. it is optional
[01:11] <eddy> BloodAdept, try installing wicd. i find it better than ubuntu's default network manager
[01:11] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: im back in the gui
[01:11] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: after you restart give me the output of: apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-video-radeon
[01:11] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: okay
[01:11] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: what is the command for that
[01:12] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: oops sorry its right there
[01:12] <BloodAdept> can anyone help me set up the wireless network on my computer for ubuntu?
[01:12] <ravigehlot> I lost my PGP Keys for all my sources. Where do I find them?
[01:12] <BloodAdept> or actually more accurate question is join my wireless network on this new computer
[01:13] <ravigehlot> @BloodAdept I am in Florida, I can not join your wireless network even if I wanted to.
[01:13] <BloodAdept> i would, but i cannot get it eddy
[01:13] <BloodAdept> -.- well gee
[01:13] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: http://pastebin.com/m434f28f9
[01:14] <BloodAdept> why don't i just repeat my previous statements
[01:14] <BloodAdept> i just installed ubuntu on my laptop and everytime i try to create a wireless connection
[01:14] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: also pastebin: apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd
[01:14] <BloodAdept> it takes the 8 character pass and changes it to an extremely long pass
[01:14] <BloodAdept> that is not correct and will not allow me to join
[01:14] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: k
[01:14] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: actually, just tell me if itgives you similar output
 @BloodAdept I am in Florida, I can not join your wireless network even if I wanted to. does that solve your "comment"

[01:17] <bazhang> BloodAdept, ravigehlot please stop
[01:17] <eddy> mgv1, i said airocrack-ng is in the repo but you may have to patch your wifi driver
[01:17] <BloodAdept> alright
[01:18] <Tatiana> seyfarth: i`m using Ubuntu
[01:18] <BloodAdept> i'll stop dealing with that parson
[01:18] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: wtf it worked but it seems like its a bit pixellated in a way its hard to say
[01:18] <eddy> mgv1, and it may break your wifi if you don't know what you're doing
[01:18] <ctmjr> BloodAdept: your using the network-manager? and it is changing the key
[01:18] <Xgates> can anyone tell me a setup guide for what Rhythmbox needs to play raido?
[01:18] <BloodAdept> yes ct
[01:19] <seyfarth> Tatiana: You can change just about anything on the Ubuntu desktop by clicking "System" in the top left corner, and select "Appearance" from the Preferences menu
[01:19] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: there is nothing else i know to do. 'it works' sounds like a win to me.
[01:19] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: i mean it ran nicely but when i look at the ground it sometimes seems like its pixelated
[01:19] <Tatiana> seyfarth: Ok, thanks
[01:19] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: heck yeah thanks man one more question is there a way i can get ccc
[01:19] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: ccc?

[01:20] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: so i can change settings to it
[01:20] <Cpear> hi
[01:21] <ctmjr> BloodAdept: is it wep or wpa?
[01:21] <Synaptic> question for someone who might know.. I know cPanel support will not support it being behind NAT however I know someone out there has to have configured a way around it. at least half way working correctly
[01:21] <BloodAdept> wpa tkip encryption
[01:21] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: fglrx-amdcccle  ..install that package

[01:21] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: okay is that the full name of the package
[01:22] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: yes, but it appears to want to install fglrx driver also. i haven't used it.
[01:22] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: will it mess up the 3d
[01:25] <Mike||sick> I have given my laptop a name, but I would like to change that. Where can I do this?
[01:25] <BloodAdept> @ctmjr may i please talk to you in a private window?
[01:25] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: yeah nm its asking for the driver dangit
[01:25] <eddy> seyfarth, are you is the windows computer the source or destination?
[01:26] <seyfarth> eddy: the source. I'm just trying to drag my files into the share from windows.
[01:26] <MrSenator> Mike||sick: (Assume you have windows): Right click on "My Computer" Go to the Computer Name tab. Click Rename, or something to that effect.
[01:26] <MrSenator> err
[01:26] <MrSenator> after you right click on "My computer"
[01:26] <MrSenator> click on properties
[01:26] <Mike||sick> MrSenator: WTF, this isn't ##windows!
[01:26] <MrSenator> Oh crap
[01:26] <MrSenator> Wrong room
[01:27] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: possibly install that package then uninstall the fglrx driver.
[01:27] <MrSenator> Haha, apologies.
[01:27] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: thats deffinatly not good
[01:27]  * Mike||sick teaches MrSenator where he is in the spacetime continuum

[01:27] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: openarena
[01:28] <ctmjr> BloodAdept: sorry phone i would rather keep it in channel
[01:28] <seyfarth> eddy: nevermind, figured it out. for whatever reason, samba used some sort of default password instead of importing my account one.
[01:28] <jrivera> how can i limit bandwidth to eth1..ethN on an ubuntu server using squid and iptables
[01:28] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: im starting to give up on linux i want it really bad but my dang video wont work aaaaa

[01:29] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: in 8.10 i had no 3d with any driver.
[01:29] <Cpear> Is there a way to install ubuntu from some kind of bootup disc? I downloaded the latest iso install from the website but it doesnt want to startup from that disc.
[01:30] <BloodAdept> k
[01:30] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: crap lol my laptop is at a black screen lol ive been seeing this all the time when trying to install the drivers or get them working

[01:31] <bastid_raZor> !nl | soreau
[01:31] <BloodAdept> ok
[01:31] <Jorik1> soreau:ubuntu-nl i think
[01:31] <BloodAdept> it's the newest version
[01:31] <DeadlySaint> question ~ In Gnome-Look. Wats the difference between GTK 1.X and GTK 2.X?
[01:31] <soreau> bastid_raZor: Jordan_U: Thanks
[01:32] <BloodAdept> would it make a difference if the password was wp2-personal?
[01:32] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: so im thinking that this laptop with the video card that it has is useless without 3d
[01:32] <BloodAdept> wpa2*
[01:32] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: acer 5515?
[01:32] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: no its a toshiba satellite a215-s5818
[01:32] <Hub_cap> I recently uninstalled windows media player, but it appears multiple times when I open a .wmv file. Where would I find the list of applications so I can remove these?
[01:32] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: ah, mine is the acer. it works fine.
[01:32] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: ive tried so many distros and i love ubuntu
[01:33] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: lol thats not fair
[01:33] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: i dont even want to but Windoze on it again i refuse too
[01:34] <gayan> hi
[01:34] <blunder> ppl in netherlands use ubuntu?!?!?
[01:34] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: what i've told you so far is the extent of my knowledge
[01:34] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: best of luck
[01:34] <eddy> bastid_raZor, have you gotten your webcam working? i've tried compiling the gspca driver for it but it fails with errors on 'make'
[01:35] <bastid_raZor> eddy: i don't have a webcam on this box
[01:35] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: dang thanks for trying do you know of anything else i can do to get freakin ati crap drivers on there working
[01:35] <ctmjr> BloodAdept: here is a guide to help you i need to go was suppose to be somewhere an hour ago http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202834
[01:35] <eddy> bastid_raZor, oh mines laptop haha
[01:35] <bastid_raZor> eddy: so is mine.
[01:35] <DeadlySaint> Wats the difference between GTK 1.X and GTK 2.X?
[01:36] <seyfarth> Dear Ubuntu Community: Why does windows explorer freeze when all I'm trying to do is copy files over and never use it again?
[01:36] <eddy> bastid_raZor, ah okay
[01:36] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: forum hunt possibly?
[01:36] <LjL> dear seyfarth: why would we know about windows explorer in an ubuntu channel?
[01:36] <eddy> seyfarth, adware .. virus .. etc
[01:36] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: yeah ive done like 100 search parties for my video card and i found some but never worked
[01:36] <seyfarth> just a little humor :)
[01:37] <bastid_raZor> eddy: i guess 'box' would refer more to a desktop than laptop. misuse of slang i guess.
[01:37] <nix-idioteque> seyfarth: I had that happen, then I had realized that it was asking me if I wanted to replace a file...  Kinda unobservant on my part...  "23% twice?   I just dropped 9.04 onto an HP laptop and now the sound is being... weird. Basically, on the login screen, the little bongo sound stutters like a CD skipping and keeps going forever, even after I've logged in.
[01:39] <eddy> Ken47150, just ask your question and someone may answer
[01:39] <Xodiac13> eddy: you mean installing the ati drivers or the opensource
[01:39] <BloodAdept> errr
[01:39] <BloodAdept> this is different
[01:40] <Ken47150> I cant mount dvds in either of my 2 drives cds mount fine
[01:40] <BloodAdept> my wireless card isn't even turned on appearently
[01:40] <Xodiac13> eddy: cause ive tried in earlier versions to use the hardware devices and enable it and the screen starts messing up into garbage
[01:40] <eddy> Keaton, open the volume control and raise all the bars, especially PCM
[01:41] <eddy> Xodiac13, well i never quite looked into it because why bother fixing something that works, but i believe ubuntu still uses the opensource for ati cards by default
[01:41] <Keaton> eddy: Okay, they're all up,  the sound is still going on a loop.
[01:42] <Ken47150> anybody seen this issue before? with not being able to mount dvd drives of any kind?
[01:42] <Xodiac13> eddy: i am going to try ubuntu 8.10 and you said you didnt install anything it just worked right
[01:42] <ubuntuisloved> if I'm running transmission (torrent) client from another location through ssh -X does it do any of the traffic through my location or does it only display the app ?
[01:42] <eddy> Keaton, maybe it's your recording device getting feedback, try lowering the mic
[01:43] <bastid_raZor> Xodiac13: he has a different card. that makes all the difference
[01:43] <Jorik1>  I have a problem with my Hp printer and HPLIP , could somebody help with that ?
[01:43] <eddy> Xodiac13, bastid_raZor is right what card do you have exactly?
[01:43] <Xodiac13> bastid_raZor: man im all sorts of fed
[01:43] <Xodiac13> eddy: radeon x1200
[01:43] <zebastian> !es
[01:43] <bastid_raZor> eddy:  the x1200
[01:44] <BloodAdept> anyone know how to turn on your wireless card from linux on a laptop?
[01:44] <Keaton> Eddy: That's.. not the problem. It's the sound itself, it'll looping. I've turned the volume off then on again and it's still going, so it's definitely not mic feedback.
[01:44] <alienbrain> I can find Apache2's apxs tool for the prefork MPM. It seems to be available only in the package apache2-threaded-dev. Any idea where apxs is for apache prefork?
[01:45] <Ken47150> you may have to get drivers for the wireless card sometimes also do you updates over a wired connection first
[01:45] <ubca> BloodAdept-> does it have a physical switch to turn on ? or in the bios perhaps?
[01:45] <BloodAdept> theres a combination of keys that normally turns it on or off
[01:45] <Ken47150> sometimes the updates jumpstart the wireless card working
[01:45] <BloodAdept> but it's not working
[01:45] <Ken47150> if ur lucky
[01:46] <eddy> Xodiac13, have you tried using envyng-core?
[01:46] <ubca> !who
[01:46] <Chazz> how do i start compiz w/o having to invoke it from terminal?
[01:46] <Dreamglider> Keaton, sudo /etc/init.d/alsa restart
[01:46] <bastid_raZor> Chazz: which versoin of ubuntu?
[01:46] <Chazz> bastid_raZor, jaunty
[01:46] <Xodiac13> eddy: no i havent how do i use it and will it work in ubuntu 8.10 cause im installing it right now
[01:47] <soreau> Chazz: Sys>Prefs>Appearance>Visual Effects. Set to anything other than None and compiz will be running
[01:47] <bastid_raZor> Chazz: system>preferences>appearances> visual tab
[01:47] <Chazz> thanks
[01:47] <Ken47150> Anybody know why my dvd burner drives refuse to mount dvds ?- drives are good, they both mount cds with no issues
[01:48] <eddy> Xodiac13, well i can't gaurantee it will but it may fix your problem
[01:48] <Keaton> Dreamglider: Hm, this is weird. Command not found. I tried going into /etc/init.d too and running it there, but I just keep getting the alsa command in /sbin
[01:49] <Xodiac13> eddy: how do i do it
[01:49] <Keaton> Dreamglider: But I can confirm that the alsa command is indeed in /etc/init.d
[01:49] <Dreamglider> Keaton, sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[01:49] <eddy> Keaton, sudo apt-get install envyng-core
[01:49] <eddy> Keaton, sorry that was to Xodiac13
[01:49] <Dreamglider> Keaton, or sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart
[01:50] <Xodiac13> eddy: sorry i didnt see it
[01:50] <Xodiac13> eddy: how do i do that
[01:50] <jabagawee> where does compiz set LIBGL_INDIRECT_ALWAYS
[01:50] <Keaton> Dreamglider: Aha, error spew. I'll put it on pastebin.
[01:50] <jabagawee> ?
[01:50] <eddy> Xodiac13, sudo apt-get install envyng-core
[01:50] <jabagawee> LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT, that is
[01:50] <zebastian> wicd is not working
[01:50] <zebastian> i am not being able to connect to a linksys router wireless connection
[01:50] <zebastian> any help?
[01:50] <bastid_raZor> eddy: wow.. envyng is horrible :\
[01:50] <Xodiac13> eddy: and then im done or is there more i need to do
[01:51] <ubca> jabagawee-> that looks like an environment variable,  type  set  in a terminal to see it its set
[01:51] <atrus> i'm trying to migrate from aptitude to synaptic, but there's one feature I can't find... how can I get a list of what packages are new to the system?
[01:51] <zebastian> i cant connect to a linksys router, the model is wrt54g
[01:51] <soreau> jabagawee: That's somewhat of a complicated question. But in short, it does it in compiz-manager
[01:51] <eddy> bastid_raZor, hey man if fglrx and radeon drivers didn't work. what do you suggest?
[01:51] <zebastian> everytime oi try to connect it says obtaining ID nad then it says it failed to obtain IP
[01:51] <Dreamglider> zebastian, try a wired connection first to setup the device.
[01:51] <mun> hi
[01:51] <jabagawee> soreau, how would i force it not to do that? and what would i lose by doing so?
[01:51] <Xodiac13> eddy: is it the open source drivers and thats all i have to do
[01:51] <bastid_raZor> eddy: that is true, i suppose.
[01:51] <mun> how do you monitor the memory usage of a particular process?
[01:51] <coolcat> how do I unpack foo.tar.gz to an existing directry bar?
[01:52] <Keaton> Dreamglider: http://pastebin.com/m4edd5044
[01:52] <zebastian> Dreamglider:  i am on a wired connection already
[01:52] <ubca> java or rather maybe env
[01:52] <KF5CLL> test
[01:52] <zebastian> to it matter of fact
[01:52] <jabagawee> mun, i use htop
[01:52] <zebastian> but if i disconnect from wired and then try to login wireless
[01:52] <soreau> jabagawee: The ability to start compiz. If compiz-manager is setting that env var, that means your drivers aren't dri2 capable yet
[01:52] <jabagawee> assuming it's the most memory intensive application, you can just sort by mem%
[01:52] <zebastian> it says failed to obtain ip
[01:52] <mun> jabagawee, well it's not the most memory intensive unfortunately
[01:52] <mun> jabagawee, can i specify a pid?
[01:53] <ubca> zebastian-> whats your network layout look like? have a drawing?
[01:53] <jabagawee> mun, yes, htop can sort by pid
[01:53] <zebastian> how do you mean network layout¿?
[01:53] <cdavis_> can anyone suggest a good amazon s3 bucket browser for ubuntu?
[01:53] <ubca> zebastian-> what is connected to which device and such
[01:53] <eddy> Xodiac13, you may have to restart but yea
[01:53] <zebastian> there's a router connected to a cable connection which is wired to a windows computer
[01:53] <mun> jabagawee, right, but can i specify one explicitly?
[01:53] <ubca> zebastian-> a picture is worth a thousand words..
[01:54] <jabagawee> mun, you can't search by pid, but you can search by process name
[01:54] <zebastian> modem to router, router to windows pc and wireless for everyone
[01:54] <jabagawee> then again, htop might not be what you need
[01:54] <Alan502> hi :)
[01:54] <eddy> Xodiac13, ah i just looked (lsmod <3) my machine uses the radeon driver. never thought they ever make it work for my x1400
[01:54] <ubca> zebastian-> a picture is worth a thousand words.. <--
[01:54] <eddy> Xodiac13, idk why it shouldn't work for your x1200 :-\
[01:55] <zebastian> ubca, i'm at a public place without a camera
[01:55] <mdg_> zebastian: what kind of wifi card you have?
[01:55] <ubca> zebastian-> draw it in boxes..
[01:55] <zebastian> how do i check that¿
[01:55] <Alan502> help here!
[01:55] <Alan502> good night
[01:55] <jabagawee> soreau, can i simply force it to not export the variable, and just start compiz with it exported, non-globally?
[01:56] <zebastian> ubca, with which command can i check which wifi card i have¿
[01:56] <jabagawee> Alan502, what help do you need?
[01:56] <mdg_> zebastian: lspci in a terminal, if USB then lsusb
[01:56] <Alan502> i screwed a partition with the ubuntu installer apparently ¬¬
[01:56] <jabagawee> zebastian, lspci/lsusb
[01:56] <mun> jabagawee, hmm how do you sort by pid?
[01:56] <zebastian> !paste
[01:56] <ubca> zebastian-> plus lshw -C network
[01:56] <Xgates> anyone know a guide to help setup Rhythmbox to play Radio? I have installed all sorts of codecs along with mplayer and I can't get it to play radio stations
[01:56] <Alan502> jabagawee, before the installation i had two partitions only
[01:57] <Alan502> one about 30 gigs for system
[01:57] <Keaton> Dreamglider, did you get my pastebin link?
[01:57] <Alan502> and the rest 130 gigs aprox for data files
[01:57] <jabagawee> !pastebininit
[01:57] <zebastian> http://paste.ubuntu.com/274446/
[01:57] <Alan502> then, as i was going to install ubuntu, jabagawee
[01:57] <soreau> jabagawee: I don't understand what you mean by nonglobally, but you can start the binary manually by setting that variable
[01:57] <jabagawee> !pastebinit
[01:57] <eddy> Xodiac13, have you tried this guide? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[01:57] <Alan502> i partitioned 20 gigs in etx3
[01:58] <Alan502> then i dont know what i selected in the installation
[01:58] <Alan502> that it apparently installed inside the 110 gig ntfs partition
[01:58] <jabagawee> soreau, eh, kinda what i meant. basically give the entire system direct rendering, and start compiz with "LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 compiz"
[01:58] <Ken47150> help? mount: /dev/sr1: unknown device when trying to mount dvds
[01:58] <n00b_> ok new to ubuntu like one week....im sooo lost
[01:58] <Alan502> and i cant access the files there
[01:58] <Alan502> would you help me?
[01:58] <ubca> zebastian-> read the results to to clue you in a bit, learn what it spits out
[01:58] <Alan502> damn it
[01:58] <zebastian> http://paste.ubuntu.com/274447/
[01:58] <Xgates> Rhythmbox keeps complaining about a text/html decoder anyone know anything?
[01:58] <jabagawee> Alan502, so you installed ubuntu onto your ntfs partition?
[01:58] <Xodiac13> eddy: no i havent will it be better to do than envy
[01:58] <jabagawee> and it got formatted as ext3?
[01:58] <Alan502> apparently
[01:59] <Alan502> mmm
[01:59] <mdg_> zebastian: what do you get from the command "ifconfig"
[01:59] <Alan502> its cause
[01:59] <eddy> Xodiac13, yes
[01:59] <Alan502> when i browsed it with partition manager, on windows
[01:59] <soreau> jabagawee: That's not going to do what you think it might. You must run compiz with --indirect-rendering or else you need dri2. What are you trying to do specifically?
[01:59] <Alan502> it shows up like if the previous partition had been partitoined again
[01:59] <Ken47150> can anybody help me with dvd mounting issue?
[01:59] <Alan502> let me upload a screen cap
[01:59] <jabagawee> soreau, maybe i should just forgo compiz
[01:59] <zebastian> mdg http://paste.ubuntu.com/274448/
[01:59] <chaukar_> #eclipse @ irc.rizon.net
[01:59] <soreau> jabagawee: Depends on your setup and what you're trying to accomplish
[02:00] <Dreamglider> Keaton, use sudo infront
[02:00] <soreau> jabagawee: DRI@ is right around the corner for radeon and already available for intel
[02:00] <jabagawee> soreau, well i have fglrx, which doesn't support dri2. i also want hardware direct rendering for everythign
[02:00] <Dreamglider> Keaton,  oops you did
[02:00] <mdg_> zebastian: you don't have wireless interface setup
[02:00] <Dreamglider> sry
[02:00] <zebastian> ubca, what do i do now?
[02:00] <soreau> jabagawee: dri2*
[02:00] <ubca> zebastian->  have you tried reading the results yet?
[02:00] <justin_> hey im trying to get a usb wirless card working on my laptop and im having some trouble can anyone shed some light on the situation
[02:00] <zebastian> mdg: how do i set it up? usually i can log into wireless networks with wicd
[02:00] <soreau> jabagawee: Which model card do you have exactly?
[02:00] <Keaton> Dreamglider, http://pastebin.com/m4edd5044
[02:00] <ubca> zebastian-> its there, you just have to learn how to read the results
[02:00] <jabagawee> soreau, HD4850, radeon and radeonhd do not support it with 3d accel yet
[02:01] <zebastian> ubca, the results to which¿?
[02:01] <ubca> zebastian-> lspci
[02:01] <soreau> jabagawee: They do, but you need latest kernel, libdrm, xf86-video-ati and mesa
[02:01] <mdg_> zebastian: you are using wicd - what does it show for the name of your wireless connection?
[02:01] <Dreamglider> Keaton,  sry cant help you, i dont know how.
[02:01] <jabagawee> soreau, oh, since when was that developed?
[02:01] <soreau> jabagawee: For ubuntu, the support should be available by at least 10.04 release I suspect
[02:01] <zebastian> mdg, cap
[02:02] <soreau> jabagawee: Very recently. And it is still under heavy development
[02:02] <jabagawee> soreau, also they make the fan on the video card run at 100%, making it really whiny and quite unacceptable
[02:02] <mdg_> zebastian: whats "cap"
[02:02] <zebastian> the ngo where i work at
[02:02] <jabagawee> soreau, i'll probably go back to radeonhd soon enough
[02:02] <eddy> justin_, depends on what device you are using
[02:02] <soreau> jabagawee: That is to be worked on
[02:02] <zebastian> and upca, i'm not here to learn, i'm here to fix as best as i can, this is not my house connection there i can connect no problem to wireless
[02:02] <soreau> jabagawee: But for right now with fglrx, if you want 3D for other things, you might as well turn compiz off or run dual X servers
[02:02] <jabagawee> soreau, until then, i guess i'll stick with fglrx
[02:02] <jabagawee> soreau, yep, no compiz for me
[02:02] <justin_> eddy, im using a netgear wnda3100 usb wireless shows up in lsusb just cant seem to get it to wrk need a point in the right direction
[02:03] <mdg_> zebastian: you are too far ahead there - in wicd, you need to tell it what your  wireless interface is called - I use "wlan0"
[02:03] <jabagawee> how would i keep track of radeonhd development?
[02:03] <ubca> zebastian-> are you getting paid to do this?
[02:03] <zebastian> ubca, no i'm not
[02:03] <soreau> jabagawee: You should keep track of radeon development. It supports everything radeonhd does and more afaik
[02:03] <ubca> zebastian-> and you dont want to take the effort to learn at all?
[02:03] <zebastian> mdg, i am not going to configure the connection, the connection is already configured from a windows computer
[02:03] <Xodiac13> eddy: okay thanks man i will try it out
[02:04] <jabagawee> soreau, hm, i'm unsure as to what the radeon/radeonhd split is all about. something to do with atombios, but that difference has been somewhat changed now
[02:04] <zebastian> ubca, yes, but for this specific particular case i just want to fix it, save the irc log and go home and read it later
[02:04] <soreau> jabagawee: If you can find the radeon devs blogs or phoronix forums keeps up on all that stuff
[02:04] <mdg_> zebastian: this is configuring linux to use the wireless card
[02:04] <mdg_> nothing to do with your router
[02:04] <soreau> jabagawee: Just wait till 10.04, should be much better and available in stable by then
[02:04] <jabagawee> soreau, i can't wait :D
[02:05] <zebastian> mdg, great give me the first command to do that and i'll do it
[02:05] <zebastian> and ubca all i saw there was a list of devices
[02:05] <jabagawee> soreau, didn't think of phoronix forums, only read their articles (which are somewhat dated). do you have a link to the radeon devs?
[02:05] <soreau> jabagawee: I couldn't either which is why I installed all the latest code here ;)
[02:06] <mdg_> zebastian: in WICD, you need to setup your wireless interface - tell it what you want to use - - I suggest using "wlan0" (thats a zero not an oh)
[02:06] <Xgates> Does anyone know anything about RythmBox text/html decoder plugin ?
[02:06] <zebastian> mdg, i am on the gui
[02:06] <Jorik1> I have a problem with my Hp printer and HPLIP , could somebody help me with that ?
[02:06] <eddy> justin_, well it seems your card has to use the ndiswrapper, see if this thread on ubuntuforums will help http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=690699
[02:06] <mdg_> zebastian: I don't have WICD installed right now.
[02:06] <mdg_> zebastian:  WICD has a GUI
[02:06] <justin_> eddy, thanks  much if i have a problem ill bring it back here
[02:06] <eddy> zebastian, run wicd-client
[02:06] <mdg_> anyone here using WICD?  Can you guide zebastian ?
[02:06] <zebastian> mdg, i knwo, so i see the list of wireless networks and there it is teh one i want to connect to, i  already have the password
[02:07] <zebastian> i enter it
[02:07] <zebastian> and it connects
[02:07] <eddy> mdg_, i am
[02:07] <zebastian> then it says obtaining ip
[02:07] <ubca> zebastian-> yes it is listed, your clue is network,
[02:07] <Alan502> jabagawee:http://imgur.com/Abge7.jpg (sorry for the low res but im strugling with that pc as the damaged partition was the one that contained all the programs i had installed)
[02:07] <zebastian> and it says unable to optain ip
[02:07] <eddy> justin_, good luck
[02:07] <m4tt> hello
[02:07] <mdg_> zebastian: lets back up here - in a terminal type sudo iwlist scan and tell us what you see
[02:08] <Xgates> no one uses RythmBox to listen to Radio?
[02:08] <zebastian> ubca, i went to wicd then preferences then network interfaces
[02:08] <jabagawee> Alan502, is that large bluish highlighted bar an extended partition?
[02:08] <m4tt> Im new to ubuntu and I've got some problems with resolution. It seems that Ubuntu isnt recognizing my monitor.
[02:08] <ubca> zebastian-> ill let mdg_ take the lead, ill comment when needed
[02:08] <Alan502> thats the partition i had previously, the one with all my data
[02:08] <zebastian> mdg http://paste.ubuntu.com/274449/
[02:08] <Alan502> the one on the left, C
[02:08] <soreau> jabagawee: http://airlied.livejournal.com/
[02:09] <Alan502> is the partition with windows installation
[02:09] <mdg_> ubca: I don't have WICD installed - don't recall all the screens
[02:09] <Alan502> the yellow one on the left, was the one i supposedly created to install ubuntu
[02:09] <ubca> mdg_-> i dont use gui myself
[02:09] <mdg_> zebastian: "sudo iwlist scan" (without quotes)
[02:09] <Alan502> but it apparently installed inside the D partition, the small yellow square shows it
[02:09] <mdg_> ubca: lol - ohhh...
[02:10] <tomas__> Hii
[02:10] <eddy> zebastian, go in preferences > external programs in wicd-client and select dhclient
[02:10] <zebastian> mdg, http://paste.ubuntu.com/274450/
[02:10] <jabagawee> Alan502, i find it confusing that a partition somehow got into another. im afraid that i dont understand
[02:10] <zebastian> eddy, that's already selected
[02:10] <jabagawee> you might be able to get help from someone better qualified
[02:10] <m4tt> Hello, can someone help me?
[02:11] <justin_> eddy, i just open the inf from the xp side install through ndis correct?
[02:11] <mdg_> zebastian: again, no wifi interface is setup...
[02:11] <Guest15876> I am having trouble getting my iPod to show up in Banshee. Can anyone help?
[02:11] <ubca> zebastian-> which of those are allowed to connect ?
[02:11] <ubca> zebastian-> which of those are you* allowed to connect ?
[02:11] <Xgates> can someone please help me to get rhythmbox working to play Radio?
[02:11] <eddy> justin_, yes install the .inf with ndiswrapper
[02:11] <zebastian> ubca, cap
[02:11] <zebastian> i have the password to cap
[02:11] <Alan502> :/ i dont understan neither jabagawee, but thats what comes up. Thanks i think i will have to do the whole formatting.
[02:11] <zebastian> mdg, what does that mean¿? how do i set it up then?
[02:11] <Guest15876> will rhythm box play my iPod?
[02:12] <tomas__> can someone help me?
[02:12] <jabagawee> Alan502, i'm pretty sure you can still save your data
[02:12] <zebastian> mdg, heck even from the command line
[02:12] <zebastian> how do i set it up
[02:12] <jabagawee> if it's important, don't lose hope just yet
[02:12] <ubca> zebastian-> well perhaps the AP owner changed parameters or filter those who can connect.. ?
[02:12] <bastid_raZor> ^/msg ubottu gtkpod
[02:12] <Alan502> mmm i can access my data, from ubuntu
[02:12] <eddy> zebastian, you could always just setup your own static ip for the computer
[02:12] <Alan502> but the problem is at windows
[02:12] <mdg_> ubca: could you guide him setting up wlan0 interface from command line?
[02:13] <zebastian> ubca, the ap owner just reconfigured the network there's no firewall or restrictions just wep and a passphrase
[02:13] <zebastian> eddy, how?
[02:13] <ubca> mdg_-> i can, but if the AP is not allowing, i cant do much
[02:13] <bastid_raZor> !ipod | Guest15876
[02:13] <tomas__> can someone help me?
[02:13] <JuanCarlos> hai, im from Empathy on Karmic, works Smoooth... :)
[02:13] <sebsebseb> hi
[02:13] <eddy> zebastian, well do you know the IP of your router? should be like <IP_ADDRESS> or something
[02:13] <sebsebseb> tomas__: I just joined what do you want help with?
[02:13] <zebastian> hold on
[02:13] <ubca> zebastian-> ask the owner again to perhaps try without wep or any encryption enabled, see if you can connect
[02:14] <ubca> eddy-> that will not work without him associating to the AP
[02:14] <trism> zebastian: looks like a WEP access point, should just be as (assuming iwconfig lists your interface as wlan0), iwconfig wlan0 essid "cap"; iwconfig wlan0 key restricted hex_key_here; dhclient wlan0
[02:14] <zebastian> ubca, without encryption it won't connect
[02:14] <Guest15876> thank you for the iPod info, going to go to the link now
[02:14] <zebastian> typing the  ip in didn'tr work either, he did that before i came here
[02:14] <JuanCarlos> I want to post a submmision here : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Website/KarmicCountdownBanners , i got FTP for the .tar.gz, but how to attach the image sample here...???
[02:15] <zebastian> trism = i.e. type that into terminal?
[02:15] <hikenboot> I have setup a machine for my nephew, he does not have internet access, its a mac g4, running ubuntu 9.04
[02:15] <trism> zebastian: yes
[02:15] <ubca> zebastian->  then there is something wrong, as minimum if everything is working then at least no encryption should allow you to connect
[02:15] <eddy> zebastian, do you know the router's IP?
[02:15] <tomas__> Hi, thanks, I'm on kubuntu, I have problems with the rods, simply disappeared when restart
[02:15] <ubca> eddy-> that will not work without him associating to the AP <--
[02:15] <sebsebseb> tomas__: the what?
[02:15] <hikenboot> I want to mirror all the repositories onto the hard drive, how would i go about doing this?
[02:15] <armyriad> Are there any games like Nethack that can be played in the terminal?
[02:15] <trism> zebastian: you should just type iwconfig without any args first to check your interface name
[02:15] <mdg_> trism: he previously posted is ifconfig - no wlan0 is defined....
[02:15] <zebastian> ubca, i'm on wired connection
[02:15] <UBestB> hikenboot: apt-cache
[02:15] <ubca> zebastian-> on same router/AP ?
[02:15] <trism> mdg_: ifconfig won't list wireless interfaces if they aren't configured
[02:15] <tomas__> the bar
[02:16] <trism> mdg_: but iwconfig will
[02:16] <tomas__> sorry for my bad english >(
[02:16] <sebsebseb> tomas__: ok try #kubuntu
[02:16] <mdg_> trism: right - we seem to be having trouble getting him to setup his wireless interface
[02:16] <zebastian> trism http://paste.ubuntu.com/274453/
[02:16] <zebastian> ubca, yes i have a wired connection to that router right now
[02:16] <trism> zebastian: you seem to want eth1
[02:17] <trism> zebastian: so replace wlan0 with eth1
[02:17] <ubca> zebastian please do not do that, having two connections to same subnet, unless you really know what you are doing
[02:17] <kevin__> I tried doing an upgrade to karmic alpha from ubuntu 9.04, and now my system won't boot. Is there a way to downgrade it from a livecd using chroot or something similar?
[02:17] <tomas__> i have to type this in the terminal??
[02:17] <justin_> eddy, i have the driver installed how do i switch from the onboard card to the usb card
[02:18] <ubca> zebastian-> think about it as beging the packet, and which interface should you be going out of your box?
[02:18] <JuanCarlos> anyone read me please?, i want to know if empathy works here...
[02:18] <Xodiac13> eddy: uh that website is the worst of getting the card to work
[02:18] <Alan502> whats up JuanCarlos
[02:18] <JuanCarlos> I want to post a submmision here : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Website/KarmicCountdownBanners , i got FTP for the .tar.gz, but how to attach the image sample here...???
[02:18] <zebastian> ubca, i didn't understand your last statement
[02:18] <Xodiac13> eddy: its stuck and the screen is blinking and stuck at checking battery state
[02:18] <Alan502> ah not expert, came for help too
[02:18] <ubca> zebastian-> think about it as being* the packet, and which interface should you be going out of your box? which of the two? wireless or ethernet?
[02:18] <Alan502> but i see its hard to get some attention
[02:18] <Alan502> xD
[02:19] <ubca> arggh cant type..
[02:19] <zebastian> ubca, right now i am on a wired connection, that is what is going out of my box i guess
[02:19] <ubca> zebastian-> think about it you as being* the packet, and which interface should you be going out of your box? which of the two? wireless or ethernet?
[02:19] <mdg_> Alan502: what was your question?
[02:19] <voidmage> I have a a windows xp setup in vmware that I'm trying to share a folder to through samba. It can see the folder when it logs in as me, but it's read-only. How can I make it able to be written to?
[02:19] <ubca> zebastian please do not do that, having two connections to same subnet, unless you really know what you are doing
[02:19] <zebastian> 192.168.1.xxx
[02:19] <zebastian> thaqt's teh ip to the router upca
[02:19] <ubca> zebastian please do not do that, having two connections to same subnet, unless you really know what you are doing
[02:20] <zebastian> i don't ahve two connections
[02:20] <zebastian> i only have one
[02:20] <Alan502> mdg_, thanks, my question was... how can i solve my partition problem?
[02:20] <zebastian> the wired one
[02:20] <Alan502> this is what happened
[02:20] <ubca> zebastian-> you will upon your wireless getting connected. so dont do it
[02:20] <zebastian> ubca, ok
[02:20] <Alan502> this is how i have currently my disk partitioned, mdg_   http://imgur.com/Abge7.jpg
[02:20] <ubca> unless you know what you are doing, ie familiar with route tables and such
[02:20] <zebastian> ok, so what od i do to enable the wireless once i disconnect from the router
[02:20] <zebastian> as i'm in the office which is not open all the time
[02:21] <zebastian> and i want to be able to connect from the wireless connection next time
[02:21] <trism> ubca: I kind of doubt it makes a difference at this point, I'm sure he's just on the wired connection so he can get help configuring...the world isn't going to explode if he configures them both
[02:21] <ubca> trism and thats where his confusion arises, having two nics enabled and he will not know what to do
[02:21] <eddy> Xodiac13, ah well fglrx doesn't work i guess. edit xorg.conf to use the radeon driver for the time being then and i guess try envyng-core
[02:22] <eddy> Xodiac13, trial and error :-\
[02:22] <ubca> zebastian-> assuming you have he wifi confguration matching the configs of AP to allow access, ifup eth1 should do the trick
[02:22] <dlp211> is there a way to set up an internal dns so that if i type something like https://dlp211server/ it points to my ip address?
[02:22] <eddy> justin_, tell your network manager to use ndiswrapper now
[02:22] <JuanCarlos> "send a message to the web presence" said, whos Web Presence, im looking for that guy
[02:22] <ubca> zebastian-> but disable the ethernet before doing such
[02:22] <zebastian> ubca, how do i do that
[02:22] <amseidler> I am trying to install byzanz. Has anyone ever installed it? I could use some help
[02:22] <bastid_raZor> dlp211: yeah, localhost
[02:22] <trism> ubca: ifup isn't going to do anything if the wireless isn't configured
[02:23] <justin_> eddy, lol i know some but ive forgotten much more than i know, lol a lil elaboration would be beautiful =]
[02:23] <trism> ubca: in /etc/network/interfaces
[02:23] <ubca> trism i said if his configs matches.. read what i typed..
[02:23] <Alan502> ah, will someone care to help me? i will really appreciate it :)
[02:23] <zebastian> what do you  pepole mean the wireless isn't configured? io am abnle to connect to my wireless router at home
[02:23] <zebastian> a lynksys N
[02:23] <Xodiac13> eddy: yup trail and never going to get it to work im bumbed out
[02:24] <eddy> justin_, did you modprobe ndiswrapper?
[02:24] <ubca> zebastian-> matching parameters, your wifi nic active and such..
[02:24] <Xodiac13> eddy: no one knows how long ive been trying to find a distro for that laptop im tired of Windoze except for gaming
[02:24] <justin_> eddy, no just "sudo ndiswrapper -i arusb_xp.inf
[02:25] <eddy> justin_, see if ndiswrapper is loaded: lsmod | grep ndis
[02:25] <mdg_> Alan502: not sure what to tell you....
[02:25] <ubca> Alan502-> what is the problem?  i have not payed attention
[02:26] <mdg_> Alan502: can't tell from screen shot what partion is to the far right of where your cursor is?
[02:26] <voidmage> Does anyone know how to make it so I can write to my folder I'm sharing to windows?
[02:26] <mdg_> Alan502: it shows yellow and 20.9 Gig  ????
[02:26] <UBestB> voidmage a samba shared folder?
[02:27] <voidmage> Yeah, shared through samba
[02:27] <Alan502> its cause, the yellow partition of 20 gigs was the one i created before the installation
[02:27] <Alan502> to supposedly install it there
[02:27] <mdg_> Alan502: is that a screenshot of gparted or something in windows?
[02:27] <Alan502> its something in windows
[02:27] <mdg_> Alan502: you have a live cd you can boot into and use gparted?
[02:27] <Alan502> i cant even get to run gparted because i ran out of space in the 2.5 gig partition ubuntu created
[02:28] <Alan502> i can boot in ubuntu
[02:28] <Alan502> and read all my files
[02:28] <mdg_> Alan502: I believe you have to resize the windows partition smaller before you make your ubuntu partition
[02:28] <chunda> hi guys, i have a rtl8187b wireless driver, and i've searched a lot and put the "iwconfig wlan0 rate 5.5M fixed" in the rc.local ro fix the sort range problem and now this is ok, i can navigate through pages pretty well, BUT the downloads are a problem. the connection get very unstable and i'm unable to finish most of the downloads
[02:28] <Alan502> but the problemis booting in windows
[02:28] <amseidler> Hi
[02:28] <Alan502> mmm
[02:28] <amseidler> Does anyone know of a good screen recorder program?
[02:28] <Alan502> mdg_: i can read all my files in ubuntu, but i cant read those in D in windows
[02:28] <amseidler> I tried instabaul, or what ever it's called, and it doesn't show any movement when I play the file bac
[02:28] <mdg_> Alan502: oh you messed up windows....
[02:28] <UBestB> amseidler: a screen cast program?
[02:29] <JuanCarlos> for wifi troubles, if nothing works, 9.10 works with all major Wifi cards and 3G thingy
[02:29] <eddy> amseidler, gtkrecordmydesktop
[02:29] <amseidler> UBestB: If by that you mean a program that records what you're doing on your screen, then yet
[02:29] <amseidler> Ok
[02:29] <Alan502> i messed up the partition with all my data, when trying to access it from windows
[02:29] <amseidler> eddy: Is that in add/remove?
[02:29] <JuanCarlos> if you can install development
[02:29] <ubca> JuanCarlos-> really? without using backports?
[02:29] <eddy> amseidler, i hear it's the best
[02:29] <amseidler> eddy: Ok :)
[02:29] <eddy> amseidler, uhh yea it should be
[02:29] <Zeno_Arrow> Hi all, are there any channel admins present? Need someone to use the nickserv sendpass command so I can log in properly.
[02:29] <mdg_> Alan502: so you need to rescue your windows data right?
[02:29] <amseidler> eddy: It's not
[02:30] <hikenboot> UBestB, to make this problem even more difficult I run centos at home, I could boot a VM with Ubuntu but it would be x86 32 bit archs not a mac G4 with ubuntu 9.04, is there a way to mirror distro repositories without using a rpm based distro for a apt based distro?
[02:30] <amseidler> eddy: which download do I get? http://recordmydesktop.sourceforge.net/downloads.php
[02:30] <chunda> could anyone help me please?
[02:30] <eddy> amseidler, sudo apt-get install gtk-recordmydesktop
[02:30] <chunda> byt the way, i'm running ubuntu 8.10
[02:30] <JuanCarlos> without backports
[02:30] <Alan502> i can access it from ubuntu, but when i go to my pc in windows and select D it retrives an error, mdg_
[02:30] <amseidler> eddy: Riiiight, forgot about the terminal :P
[02:30] <mdg_> Alan502: and you can't mount ntfs (D: drive)?
[02:31] <Alan502> exactly
[02:31] <digitalvaldosta> hello everyone, I am trying to setup a list of apturls on my site of packages that a general Ubuntu user should install. I am trying to list mozilla-acroread and it does not work. anyone know what is wrong? -->> apturl:mozilla-acroread
[02:31] <ubca> JuanCarlos-> thats cool, somehow someone here earlier complained about that and somebody else suggested using the backport to access the drivers
[02:31] <amseidler> eddy: Ok, it's installing. Now to test it :). Thanks for the help :)
[02:31] <Alan502> but i can from ubuntu, i think ubuntu sniffing in that partition screwed it up
[02:31] <mdg_> Alan502: so you need to force a mount of ntfs through ubuntu to copy your files from borked windows install?
[02:31] <Eugenio> hello
[02:31] <UBestB> amseidler: you can use xvidcap
[02:31] <hikenboot> UBestB s/mirror  distro repositories without using a rpm based/while using a rpm based distro/
[02:31] <JuanCarlos> backports of development release are almost empty...
[02:31] <Eugenio> !list
[02:32] <JuanCarlos> because all is the lastest version of everything including the kernel
[02:32] <digitalvaldosta> :-/ Anyone experienced in apturl links ?
[02:32] <Alan502> windows install is completely functionall, what i think will be useful is moving ubuntu install to the other etx3 partition i created before, mdg_
[02:32] <Eugenio> !bot
[02:32] <digitalvaldosta> !bot apturl
[02:32] <ubca> JuanCarlos-> ah i got you, development..
[02:32] <kruykaze> digitalvaldosta, what do you need?
[02:33] <JuanCarlos> {{attachment:bannerday7.jpg}}
[02:33] <JuanCarlos> '''[[http://img34.imageshack.us/img34/9208/bannerday7.jpg|Full Size]]'''------------>This is OK to attach a image on Ubuntu Wiki????????
[02:33] <mdg_> Alan502: try something like:  sudo mount.ntfs-3g /dev/hda1 /media/ha1 -o force
[02:33] <Alan502> mmm what will that do?
[02:33] <LjL> JuanCarlos: you should probably ask that in #ubuntu-doc
[02:33] <mdg_> Alan502: I can never exactly recall the command right...
[02:33] <JuanCarlos> ok
[02:33] <JuanCarlos> thanks...
[02:33] <digitalvaldosta> kruykaze, I am trying to list apturl links on my site and I need one for mozilla-acroread that works
[02:34] <mdg_> Alan502: it will force ubuntu to mount your windows partition
[02:34] <UBestB> so you want to mirror repos other than rpms on an rpm based system?
[02:34] <digitalvaldosta> kruykaze, I tried apturl://mozilla-acroread
[02:34] <Alan502> ok thanks a lot mdg_, really appreciated it
[02:34] <Alan502> what do you mean with, mounting?
[02:34] <mdg_> Alan502: that will be under /media/ha1
[02:35] <Alan502> on the previous partition i created :s
[02:35] <Alan502> hahaha
[02:35] <mdg_> Alan502: in linux you "mount" and "unmount" file systems, kind of like how you access a USB flash drive
[02:35] <sinan> what can i use from the terminal to know how my disk is being used right now ? (like the disk usage meter in system monitor)
[02:35] <JuanCarlos> mozilla-acroread ------>Medibuntu
[02:35] <sheeps1> hi, I've been using karmic for a while on my netbook and after updating it last night it doen't start X,  it also doesn't appear to recognise that it has a wireless card (and I don't have a second network cable).
[02:35] <Alan502> ah... going to try it then
[02:35] <ubca> sinan-> df -h  and du -h
[02:35] <Alan502> Thanks a lot mdg_, will try it now
[02:35] <eddy> sinan, df -h
[02:35] <digitalvaldosta> kruykaze I would prefer to have the link work with Ubuntu's repositories instead of having the user install medibuntu
[02:35] <Alan502> and see if it works
[02:35] <eddy> ah beat me to it lol
[02:35] <Alan502> really appreciate it
[02:35] <sebsebseb> !karmic |  sheeps1
[02:35] <mdg_> Alan502: good luck!
[02:35] <trism> digitalvaldosta: I think the correct format is apt:mozilla-acroread
[02:36] <chunda> so,  rtl8187b wifi + ubuntu 8.10 == no good?
[02:36] <digitalvaldosta> trism, I think I tried it that way but I will try it real quick.
[02:36] <sinan> eddy: i am not talking about disk usage / free. I want the rate of data transfer compared to the whole bandwidth.
[02:36] <DigitalKiwi> iotop
[02:36] <tomas__> Hi again
[02:36] <ubca> chunda-> what made you determined that?
[02:36] <DigitalKiwi> 1 community/iotop 0.3.1-1  Python program with a top like UI used to show of behalf of which process is the I/O going on.
[02:36] <sinan> DigitalKiwi: thanks
[02:36] <sheeps1> ubottu: the ubuntu+1 channel says to come here for support
[02:36] <Slacktard> Pardon me, but my logout sound refuses to play.
[02:37] <kruykaze> digitalvaldosta, hmm
[02:37] <kruykaze> can you explain more?
[02:37] <sheeps1>
[02:37] <trism> digitalvaldosta: yeah you'd need to try it, I just googled, and on the apturl launchpad page it says apt:pkgname
[02:37] <tomas__> i cant see the bar, im un kubuntu, someone can help me_
[02:37] <tomas__> ??
[02:38] <Slacktard> I can play it from the sound meny perfectly well, and the login sound play as it should. But the logout sound refuses to work.
[02:38] <eddy> sinan, uhh i think 'top' shows that info
[02:38] <chunda> ubca:i have a rtl8187b wireless driver, and i've put the "iwconfig wlan0 rate 5.5M fixed" in the rc.local ro fix the short range problem and now this is ok, BUT the downloads are a problem. the connection get very unstable and i'm unable to finish most of the downloads
[02:38] <digitalvaldosta> trism / kruykaze , that still does that same error ( package is virtual
[02:38] <trism> digitalvaldosta: lemme go test it, one sec
[02:38] <eddy> sinan, 'top' is the equivalent of gnome's system monitor for the terminal
[02:38] <zxcvas_> tomas__: try ctrl+alt+f1 (kills x-sessions and goes into commandline) - log in, type startx
[02:39] <eddy> sinan, great if you're ssh'ing your machine :-)
[02:39] <ubca> chunda-> what if you leave the rate dynamic and let the driver decide the bitrate .. what happens?
[02:39] <digitalvaldosta> trism / kruykaze , the link 'works' it just says package is virtual. thats my only problem
[02:39] <DigitalKiwi> htop is like 20 times better than top, eddy
[02:39] <mdg_> Alan502: if you end up having to reinstall windows - reinstall windows first and then install ubuntu , just leave enough room for your ubuntu install when you setup windows
[02:40] <eddy> DigitalKiwi, really i guess i'll check it out
[02:40] <DigitalKiwi> http://omploader.org/vMjgyag isn't that beautiful?
[02:40] <kruykaze> digitalvaldosta, brb sorry
[02:40] <eddy> DigitalKiwi, haha it has colors
[02:41] <DigitalKiwi> and yes ompluad is a script i wrote to post to omploader.org \o/
[02:41] <mdg_> anyone here use avidemux?  I have a sound problem
[02:42] <JuanCarlos> anyone like it...? :) http://img34.imageshack.us/img34/9208/bannerday7.jpg
[02:42] <navetz> can someone help me reconfigure alsa for my soundcar
[02:42] <navetz> d
[02:43] <axle> hey
[02:43] <eddy> sup doood
[02:43] <mdg_> hi axle
[02:43] <axle> anyone know how to use downloaded 360 themes?
[02:43] <axle> i downloaded some with some spare point but can't find them in the themes menu
[02:44] <axle> sup mdg
[02:44] <DigitalKiwi> eddy: if you don't like the colors you can turn them off ;)
[02:44] <eddy> DigitalKiwi, but i like colors
[02:45] <DigitalKiwi> oh
[02:45] <axle> join #jungleflasher
[02:45] <DigitalKiwi> sounded like you were making fun of it for having colors
[02:45] <eddy> my bad ...
[02:46] <[[thufir]]> is it possible to change the behaviour of apt-get so that, rather than downloading umpteen packages and then installing them, each package is downloaded and installed before the next one is processed?
[02:46] <eddy> [[thufir]], i don't think so
[02:46] <quartknee> Has anyone else had problems updating due to meidbuntu files?
[02:47] <adante> wow so
[02:47] <trism> digitalvaldosta: according to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apturl/+bug/230760 apturl can't install virtual packages, so you'd need to figure out what package it points to
[02:47] <adante> when i delete large amounts of files in linux, my desktop is basically nonresponsive?
[02:47] <adante> is this just normal for ubuntu?
[02:47] <[[thufir]]> is it possible to change the behaviour of apt-get so that, rather than downloading umpteen packages and then installing them, each package is downloaded and installed before the next
[02:47] <digitalvaldosta> trism, thanks
[02:47] <bastid_raZor> [[thufir]]: some packages need the next to be updated before it can be installed
[02:47] <[[thufir]]> eddy: ok
[02:48] <UBestB> adante, could be a filesystem issue
[02:48] <eddy> adante, not normal
[02:48]  * eddy agrees with UBestB
[02:48] <DigitalKiwi> slow computer?
[02:48] <[[thufir]]> bastid_raZor: righ, so in that case, install the dependany first.
[02:48] <adante> lol, man
[02:48] <eddy> very slow computer
[02:48] <chunda> i dunno, i've just copied and paste
[02:48] <chunda> if i run without this command, i can only connect near the wifi router
[02:49] <adante> yeah like e8400 slow
[02:49] <eddy> does it run on vacuum tubes?
[02:49] <chunda> and i'm still have an unstable wifi connection
[02:49] <bastid_raZor> [[thufir]]: i think that is the first time i've ever seen that question asked.
[02:49] <[[thufir]]> I have a slow connection
[02:49] <adante> so how do i tell if my drives are using dma nowadays?
[02:50] <eddy> dma?
[02:50] <adante> preferably without having to rebuild kernel, install 426 sources etc
[02:50] <causasui> I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 and I just installed Konqueror. Is there any way to maek it the default file manager?
[02:50] <sinan> eddy: iotop did it :)
[02:51] <bastid_raZor> [[thufir]]: it would still take just as long either way, yet i don't think it is possible. but if dependency is updated and you don't update the other package then you have broken packages
[02:51] <tomas__> hi again
[02:52] <eddy> sinam, cool *top is awesome
[02:52] <aj_444> Which is the best: ubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu, or lubuntu?
[02:52] <chunda> ubca: so i just don't know what i have to do to have a stable wifi
[02:53] <tomas__> y try typin startx and say me, server fatal error, is already in use or something like that
[02:53] <ubca> chunda -> there are no guaranteed speed with wifi,  try using wired
[02:53] <eddy> aj_444, depends on your taste
[02:53] <Cyrano_De> aj_444: That is like asking which is best: red, green, blue or purple.   Depends on your canvas and what you like.
[02:53] <DigitalKiwi> sinan: so iotop does what you need?
[02:53] <eddy> i prefer ubuntu and customize my gnome setup
[02:54] <aj_444> eddy, Cyrano_De: I'm looking for something I really can make my own, but that is easy to use. I mean, I know that ubuntu by nature is by far the easiest linux distro to use out there, but are there ones that are simpler than others?
[02:54] <Cyrano_De> I've taken a likeing to xubuntu lately myself.  Ever since KDE4 anyway.
[02:55] <sinan> DigitalKiwi: yep ! :)
[02:55] <DigitalKiwi> cool
[02:55] <eddy> aj_444, well LinuxMint is a flavor that is based off of Ubuntu that may be 'easier'
[02:55] <sinan> DigitalKiwi: I wonder if there is a similar tool for network usage .. is there any?
[02:55] <eddy> *flavor - i mean distro
[02:55] <aj_444> eddy: I need something that is running in karmic because well, jaunty hates my netbook.
[02:55] <DigitalKiwi> sinan: yeah =D
[02:56] <sinan> DigitalKiwi: what is it called ?  Is there any way to maek it the default file manager?
[02:58] <navetz> kruykaze: the terminal one
[02:58] <eddy> mdg_, i do too but for some reason when i booted mint livecd i get a system hault, so i guess mint does not like my acer laptop :-(
[02:58] <aj_444> DigitalKiwi: Preferably. Its the only thing that'll work on my asus 1005ha.
[02:59] <DigitalKiwi> http://oswatershed.org/ aj_444
[02:59] <eddy> causasui, just use Kubuntu
[02:59] <mdg_> eddy: have you tried eeeubuntu?
[02:59] <Cyrano_De> aj_444: For low resource machines I would go with xubuntu or lubuntu
[03:00] <eddy> mdg_, i don't have an eeepc
[03:00] <eddy> i wish i did tho
[03:00] <causasui> eddy: stupid answer
[03:00] <chunda> ubca: without the command, is worse and with a short range
[03:00] <Cyrano_De> aj_444: There is also the netbook remix.
[03:00] <kruykaze> navetz, not familiar with it do you know the name?
[03:00] <chase1> hello, something has happened and my ubuntu has become corrupted and i cannot get rid of it from my system.  i have uninstalled from windows and tried to edit boot.ini but it still shows up in my dual boot screen and all attempts to reinstall have failed. does anyone have any idea what i should do?
[03:00] <aj_444> Cyrano_De: I like the desktop enviroment. The launcher irritates me.
[03:00] <kruykaze> navetz, actually i think that one is buit in
[03:00] <navetz> kruykaze: well when you type alsamixer in a terminal it usually shows up
[03:01] <aj_444> DigitalKiwi: Are those listed as future releases up for download?
[03:01] <mdg_> eddy: what processor you have?
[03:01] <Cyrano_De> aj_444: You can set the interface back to a standard gnome desktop in the NBR
[03:01] <mdg_> eddy: I've been told that acer aspire and eeepc have same components
[03:02] <kruykaze> navetz, and what dod you wanna do
[03:02] <eddy> mdg_, intel dual core
[03:02] <Cyrano_De> mdg_: almost all netbooks have the same components
[03:02] <DigitalKiwi> aj_444: all of those are available right now afaik
[03:02] <navetz> kruykaze: well i am actually trying to fix my soundcard
[03:02] <mdg_> eddy: give Mint 7 a try...
[03:02] <aj_444> DigitalKiwi: Thanks. I'll test some of them out.
[03:02] <eddy> causasui, well i believe then you can change your default by editing some .desktop files in /usr/share/applications
[03:03] <DigitalKiwi> if you want opinins on any of them ask me
[03:03] <kruykaze> navetz, and you're looking for a graphical mixer?
[03:03] <mdg_> Cyrano_De: they almost have the same components - but acer aspire and eeepc are the closest match
[03:03] <aj_444> DigitalKiwi: For ease of use, which would you recommend?
[03:03] <Cyrano_De> I was just looking at Toshiba 205 and a gateway AMD based this evening.
[03:03] <navetz> kruykaze: no I am just trying to fix my sound, and i'm missing alsamixer
[03:03] <aj_444> eddy: you're having netbook problems?
[03:03] <eddy> mdg_, i have and the livecd gave me a system hault message when loading vmlinuz...
[03:04] <chunda> ubca: speed is not the problem
[03:04] <chunda> ubca: the connection gets stuck.
[03:04] <DigitalKiwi> fedora rawhide is probably what i'd use if i didn't want to configure everything, arch is what i use most of the time
[03:04] <kruykaze> you can't do sudo apt get install alsamixer?
[03:04] <kruykaze> apt-get*
[03:04] <DigitalKiwi> this is ot though, pm me if you want
[03:05] <[[thufir]]> synaptic is able to create a bunch of wget's, like:  wget -c http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/pam/libpam-modules_1.0.1-9ubuntu1.1_i386.deb
[03:05] <eddy> aj_444, i dont have any problem with ubuntu
[03:05] <DigitalKiwi> anecdotal!
[03:05] <kruykaze> navetz, i'm pming you
[03:05] <yorielg> hi
[03:05] <DigitalKiwi> this channel is statistical evidence that a lot of people do ;D
[03:06] <chase1> i have tried to delete the ubuntu partition but there is none, i have seemingly erased all traces but it is still there. does anyone know what i should do? kinda desperate here
[03:06] <[[thufir]]> can this script be used to with "apt-get" so that there aren't large and numerous downloads?
[03:06] <yorielg> can somebody say  if is possible had 3 monitors in ubuntu
[03:06] <DigitalKiwi> yorielg: yes
[03:06] <yorielg> DigitalKiwi: how?
[03:07] <yorielg> i try so many times, but nothing
[03:07] <DigitalKiwi> that depends on your hardware
[03:07] <glavanwa1> BootITNG will zapp ubuntu
[03:07] <yorielg> i had one pciexpress ati
[03:08] <yorielg> and other ati pci
[03:08] <yorielg> with first i do twin, but i  cant be avaliable to up thirth
[03:09] <mdg_> chase1: you tried to delete ubuntu through windows?
[03:09] <chase1> yes. i installed it to begin with with wubi
[03:09] <mdg_> oh wubi!   eeewwww!
[03:09] <glavanwa1> You can't delete ubuntu through windows
[03:09] <jophish> would anybody be able to take a look at this:
[03:09] <jophish> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1270668
[03:09] <justin_> lol im back guys i got ndiswrapper to install the driver and see the device i just cant use it for some reason any help here?
[03:10] <aj_444> glavanwa1: If I'm not mistaken, I believe you can.
[03:10] <mdg_> chase1: In windows, just uninstall wubi from the control panel add/remove applications
[03:10] <chase1> glavanwa1 then how do i uninstall it? i can't even get to ubuntu. when i select it from dual boot i just get errors and i have to turn the computer off. saying that files cannot be found. im assuming from the wubi uninstall
[03:10] <chase1> mdg_ i'll try that
[03:10] <eddy> mdg_, lol that won't remove ubuntu though
[03:10] <glavanwa1> Well you can't remove grub or lilo with windows
[03:10] <mdg_> chase1: :) good luck
[03:10] <nabudis> Could someone please tell me how to configure NICs in ubuntu?
[03:11] <chase1> glavanwa1 then how do i remove them?
[03:11] <eddy> wait, does wubi magically create a virtual partition or something?
[03:11] <mdg_> eddy: yes
[03:11] <chase1> mdg_: it isn't even showing up under uninstall programs
[03:11] <yorielg> nabudis: edit /etc/networks
[03:11] <eddy> mdg_, oh i guess uninstalling it entirely may work
[03:12] <mdg_> chase1: are you booted in windows or ubuntu?
[03:12] <glavanwa1> Use a partition utility like bootITNG or partition magic
[03:12] <glavanwa1> Gparted
[03:12] <nabudis> thanks:)
[03:12] <chase1> mdg_: im in windows. i can't get into ubuntu. when i try to i get "missing file errors"
[03:12] <aj_444> glavanwa1: That, you cannot. You need the windows recovery disk.
[03:12] <chase1> glavanwa1: i tried, there isn't a partition
[03:12] <r3l1c> how do I add a log in message on ubuntu server?
[03:12] <glavanwa1> Then how is it still there?
[03:12] <chase1> glavanwa1: i also just got finished reinstalling windows and wiping everything. and its still there
[03:13] <mdg_> chase1: do you still have wubi in your programs menu?  Is there an uninstall link?
[03:13] <chase1> glavanwa1: i have no clue, lol thats what im trying to figure out
[03:13] <chase1> mdg_: no, i do not
[03:13] <bastid_raZor> r3l1c: /etc/motd
[03:13] <lstarnes> r3l1c: it might be /etc/motd
[03:13] <glavanwa1> How do you know it's still there?
[03:13] <mdg_> chase1: how did you start ubuntu before?
[03:13] <chase1> glavanwa1: it still shows up on my dual boot screen, even though i cannot get into ubuntu because it gives me errors
[03:13] <eddy> chase1, i read on a forums site you just go to c:\ and remove the wubi* file/folders then edit your boot.ini and remove the ubuntu boot options
[03:13] <dsdeiz> in rtorrent, what does it mean when it says "Trakcer: [Timeout was reached]"?
[03:13] <bastid_raZor> r3l1c: but actually there is a process to get it to not be over written.. actually add your message to /etc/motd.tail
[03:13] <r3l1c> bastld_raZor: lastarnes: thanks
[03:13] <aj_444> perhaps you need to resize the windows partition. If you delete ubuntu, there'll still be an open hdd space.
[03:13] <glavanwa1> Dual boot screen in grub or lilo?
[03:14] <chase1> glavanwa1: lilo?
[03:14] <armyriad> !bot
[03:14] <aj_444> yo ubottu
[03:14] <mdg_> eddy: can you throw him a link to instructions?
[03:14] <RPG_Master> My logitech control has stopped working :(
[03:14] <RPG_Master> *controller
[03:14] <glavanwa1> lilo = Linus Loader its like grub
[03:14] <chase1> mdg_: yes please, lol. i tried editing boot.ini but i can't find out how, windows 7 is very weird about these things
[03:15] <RPG_Master> It was working yesterday...
[03:15] <eddy> chase1, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=932002
[03:15] <schmidtty> I want to stream an internet radio station. what software do i need and is there a tutorial for jaunty?
[03:15] <RPG_Master> So can anyone here help me figure out why its not working?
[03:15] <mdg_> RPG_Master: what is a "logitech controller?"
[03:15] <chase1> eddy: thank you :)
[03:15] <RPG_Master> mdg_: Let get a link...
[03:15] <RPG_Master> *me
[03:15] <mdg_> eddy: thanks from me too :)
[03:16] <kruykaze> my brother is having proxy problems with his pc can anyone tell me where to look for those settings?
[03:16] <eddy> chase1, you could use EasyBCD to remove ubuntu
[03:16] <lstarnes> kruykaze: is it running ubuntu?
[03:16] <seyfarth> !vpn
[03:16] <Knightingale> oh ubuntu is it fine to install single .deb's and not sets of packages without interfering?
[03:17] <Knightingale> s/oh/with
[03:17] <lstarnes> Knightingale: I believe so
[03:17] <lstarnes> Knightingale: but you would need to manually resolve dependencies when using single .debs
[03:17] <XwXCrazyloki> hi
[03:17] <mdg_> RPG_Master: ... did I miss your reply?
[03:17] <XwXCrazyloki> how can i hack stuff on Ubuntu?
[03:18] <bastid_raZor> r3l1c: in order to keep your changes you'll need to do: update-motd --disable ..then edit /etc/motd and /etc/motd.tail
[03:18] <eddy> XwXCrazyloki, depends on what you wish to hack, but i doubt anyone will answer those questions here
[03:18] <MrSenator> Woah! How's the Ubuntu alpha?
[03:18] <xmnt> XwXCrazyloki, use a saw
[03:18] <XwXCrazyloki> i want to hack cia
[03:18] <eddy> xmnt, lol
[03:18] <aj_444> MrSenator: Karmic?
[03:18] <RPG_Master> mdg_: http://www.google.com/search?q=logitech+controller&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=com.ubuntu:en-US:unofficial&client=firefox-a
[03:18] <MrSenator> Yeah
[03:18] <MrSenator> Just leanred about it
[03:18] <eddy> use an axe!
[03:18] <XwXCrazyloki> what kind of axe?
[03:19] <Cyrano_De> I'm a big fan of recipricating saws.
[03:19] <RPG_Master> mdg_: I hadn't replied yet :P
[03:19] <eddy> XwXCrazyloki, good luck hacking cia
[03:19] <r3l1c> bastid_raZor:  thanks
[03:19] <lstarnes> r3l1c: /etc/motd.tail should be directly edited instead of /etc/motd
[03:19] <aj_444> MrSenator: Its still unstable. A lot of useless stuff crashes often.   Just ignore it
[03:21] <bastid_raZor> lstarnes: ah, i thought we were all muzzled by the bots.
[03:22] <seyfarth> I need to connect to a Windows VPN in Ubuntu to access an exchange server. any ideas?
[03:22] <RPG_Master> mdg_:  Yeah, I was playing some SNES games
[03:22] <mdg_> RPG_Master: frets on fire?
[03:22] <kruykaze> lstarnes, can you tell me where to find proxy settings?
[03:22] <RPG_Master> mdg_: But that would probably work too :)
[03:22] <mdg_> RPG_Master: did it work out of box first time?
[03:23] <Cyrano_De> seyfarth: if it is a pptp VPN then there is a plugin for network manager that works pretty well.
[03:23] <glavanwa1> exit
[03:23] <RPG_Master> mdg_: Yep... which makes me wonder why its not working now :(
[03:23] <lstarnes> kruykaze: if it's ubuntu running gnome, System > Preferences > Network Proxy
[03:23] <mdg_> RPG_Master: plus in to USB?
[03:23] <RPG_Master> It was working fine in ZSNES :(
[03:23] <RPG_Master> mdg_: yes
[03:23] <XwXCrazyloki> hi
[03:23] <mdg_> RPG_Master: check "lsusb" and see if it is listed.....
[03:23] <XwXCrazyloki> ubuntu is fag software
[03:24] <eddy> ok
[03:24] <kruykaze> lstarnes, it says direct connection which makes no sense because the update manager for example is looking for <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:24] <XwXCrazyloki> only fags use ubuntu
[03:24] <RPG_Master> I think we are being "raided
[03:24] <RPG_Master> "
[03:24] <jrib> XwXCrazyloki: do you have ane actual support qusetion or do you just want to be banned?
[03:24] <kruykaze> lstarnes, my dad was fiddling with proxies the other day but as a seperate user
[03:24] <MrSenator> lol silly people with time on their hands.
[03:24] <eddy> i think he wants to be banned
[03:24] <XwXCrazyloki> ubuntu is dumb
[03:25] <DigitalKiwi> jrib: i do believe he wants to hack cia with ubuntu
[03:25] <aj_444> RPG_Master: I know. honestly, what is up with the spam today?
[03:25] <eddy> jrib, thank you
[03:25] <webbb82> is there any good software for a alternative to the system tray
[03:25] <RPG_Master> aj_444:  Has it been like this all day?
[03:25] <bastid_raZor> webbb82: cairo-dock or Avant window navigator
[03:26] <lstarnes> kruykaze: I'm not sure how to change root's proxy settings
[03:26] <aj_444> RPG_Master: I've only been on the past hour. It started to get bad 30 minutes ago? Probably those punks over at Fedora. xD
[03:26] <RPG_Master> :P
[03:26] <webbb82> i already have a dock i dont wanna cliutter it with minamised apps
[03:26] <lstarnes> kruykaze: for apt, it may be somewhere in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/
[03:27] <mdg_> webbb82: gnome do dock?
[03:27] <bastid_raZor> webbb82: cairo-dock has the option to not show minimized applications.. but i misread your question .. you said system tray
[03:27] <webbb82> avan
[03:27] <lstarnes> kruykaze: it might have something in /etc/apt/sources.list trying to use a local cache
[03:27] <eddy> can i still talk in here or do i have to identify
[03:27] <lstarnes> eddy: we can hear you
[03:27] <webbb82> bastid_raZor, isnt the system tray where minamised apps go
[03:27] <eddy> cool
[03:27] <kruykaze> lstarnes, oh i see
[03:27] <DigitalKiwi> eddy: sorry couldn't hear you
[03:27] <RPG_Master> mdg_: Its showing up as "Logitech, Inc. Precision Gamepad"
[03:27] <eddy> DigitalKiwi, ha ha (sarcasm)
[03:28] <hikenboot> greetings I have decided to use apt-mirror for setting up a local cache of repositories anyone able to tell me the default apt-sources for Jaunty 9.04 for POWERPC ?
[03:28] <mdg_> RPG_Master: then it must be something in the game that made it stop working
[03:28] <mezquitale> anyone karmic ubuntu studio alpha 6 by any chance???
[03:28] <eddy> the floodbot confused me before and i tried to register this nick but it's taken
[03:28] <RPG_Master> mdg_: OK then, thanks :)  I'll start messing around with ZSNES's settings then
[03:28] <lstarnes> mezquitale: #ubuntu+1 is the channel for karmic and its official variants
[03:29] <mdg_> hikenboot: you might have better luck posting in the PPC forum at www.ubuntuforums.org
[03:29] <bastid_raZor> webbb82: in gnome the system tray is in the top panel at the right.  the minimized windows are int he bottom panel
[03:29] <xmnt> mezquitale, not sure what you meant but I installed it in a vm
[03:29] <hikenboot> thanks mdg_
[03:29] <mdg_> hikenboot: I have 8.04 on a PPC, so that won't help you...
[03:29] <webbb82> ya sorry im geting my terms mixed up
[03:29] <kruykaze> lstarnes, how do i fix that?
[03:29] <mezquitale> xmnt, im trying to download the image, if you have it and want to send it to me that will be great, im downloading it from the site but it's going to take about 3 hours to download
[03:30] <lstarnes> kruykaze: I'm not exactly sure
[03:30] <xmnt> mezquitale, try the torrents
[03:30] <lstarnes> kruykaze: if it's an entry in /etc/apt/sources.list pointing to <IP_ADDRESS>/localhost, it can be removed or replaced with an actual mirror
[03:30] <xmnt> mezquitale, that is the fastest way
[03:30] <lstarnes> kruykaze: there might also be something in system > administration > synaptic package manager
[03:30] <mezquitale> xmnt, i cant even get a hit using the torrent, what client are you using? I'm using Transmission bit torrent client
[03:31] <dsdeiz> can't i find rtorrent in the ppa?
[03:31] <xmnt> mezquitale, deluge  .... make sure your ports are forwarded properly
[03:31] <[[thufir]]> how do you download updates with a slow connection?  sometimes the download fails and I have to start over.  (intermittent as well).
[03:31] <xmnt> mezquitale, setup correctly shouldn't take more than 10-20 min. on a decent connection
[03:32] <Magicman1264> can anyone help me? I can't get flash player to work
[03:32] <mezquitale> I have a fast cable connection and it takes me forever to download the torrents, let me try the deluge client
[03:32] <kruykaze> lstarnes, thx a bunch
[03:32] <mezquitale> !flash
[03:32] <Jordan_U> [[thufir]]: You should be able to continue, at the very least every individual package that is successfully downloaded is saved
[03:33] <eddy> [[thufir]], you'll probably have to uncheck most updates in the update-manager and update one package at a time
[03:33] <Magicman1264> thank you   I'll give it a try
[03:33] <aj_444> Magicman1264: If I remember correctly, you need to type into the terminal sudo aptitutde install flashplugins-installer
[03:33] <mdg_> Magicman1264: what kind of PC and is this a fresh install of ubuntu?
[03:34] <r3l1c> flashplugin-nonfree
[03:34] <Jordan_U> [[thufir]]: If you use apt-get it will tell you how much needs to be downloaded to upgrade, the amount should go down each time you run it
[03:34] <chunda1> ubca: sorry
[03:34] <eddy> aj_444, adobe-flashplugin
[03:34] <chunda1> ubca pidgin raped my processor and RAM
[03:34] <Magicman1264> not fresh install
[03:35] <Guest3565> how do I get an already built copy of opengl, or something the equivelant of directx for ubuntu 8.10?
[03:35] <mdg_> Magicman1264: is this a Power PC?
[03:35] <seyfarth> how many times will "ping [ip]" go in the terminal...?
[03:35] <Magicman1264> I have this running since about JUne
[03:35] <aj_444> actually, Magicman1264: its sudo aptitude install flashplugin-installer
[03:35] <Magicman1264> no   not power PC
[03:35] <aj_444> eddy: the way I suggested worked earlier today for me. just minus the s at the end of plugin.
[03:35] <r3l1c> until you hit ctrl+z ? thats my guess seyfarth
[03:35] <mdg_> Magicman1264: did you add the medibuntu repositories and GPG key?
[03:36] <Magicman1264> no I don't know how
[03:36] <mdg_> Magicman1264: google ubuntu wiki Medibuntu
[03:36] <eddy> Guest31506, you just need to get 3d working for your gfx card
[03:37] <mdg_> Magicman1264: once you add the medibuntu repos and update, you can get flash working
[03:37] <bastid_raZor> !medibuntu | Guest31506
[03:37] <Guest3565> Well I can't seem to get games to run properly on my system so I figure it must be a problem with not having opengl, or directx
[03:37] <r3l1c> i hate flash
[03:37] <Magicman1264> ok
[03:37] <webbb82> gnome do's dock is really laggy does anyone els notice this or know how to fix it
[03:37] <r3l1c> sorry @ off topic
[03:38] <aj_444> webbb82: could also be your graphics card.
[03:38] <Schalken> !codecs
[03:38] <frank1_> anyone use an ipod with jaunty??? im having major problems getting my 80gb classic to work with any media player
[03:38] <mdg_> frank1_: you tried gtkpod?
[03:38] <wite> does anyone know how to configure x server to let me use three monitors with two nvidia cards. i have 1 and a half monitors working, but i can't get the other half of one, and the 3rd working correctly.
[03:39] <mdg_> wite: half a monitor?
[03:39] <frank1_> it ran soo slow and didnt allow me to take my files off my ipod and put them on my comp
[03:39] <Guest3565> eddy any ideas?
[03:39] <wite> lol. the desktop only takes up about 60% of the space for whatever reason. doesn't stretch the whole monitor
[03:39] <r3l1c> frank1_:  there is an ipod thingy in synaptic ... I used it on a friends. it had something to do with a hippo I think
[03:39] <frank1_> i started ubuntu from scrach so most of my good tunes r on my ipoo
[03:40] <frank1_> i tried banshee but the files wouldnt copy to my music folder
[03:40] <webbb82> so no one els has a laggy gnome do docky
[03:40] <mdg_> frank1_: did you enable the ipod plugin in banshee?
[03:40] <sheena1> Having trouble with the touchpad on a Gateway T-1620. Tap-click works only part of the time. Anyone able to help? Running Jaunty, fresh install.
[03:40] <frank1_> rhythembox wouldnt let me copy off the ipod
[03:40] <frank1_> hmmm ipod plugin?
[03:41] <mdg_> frank1_: try looking under preferences....
[03:41] <frank1_> it just asked my which ipoo i was using so that it could set itself up
[03:41] <Guest3565> anyone know about the game SAVAGE 2 ?
[03:41] <mdg_> frank1_: hmmm....
[03:41] <frank1_> yea ipod support is enablem
[03:41] <rand0ms0me0ne> hellllllo everyone!
[03:41] <frank1_> and i tried another prog also
[03:42] <frank1_> amarok
[03:42] <frank1_> which i couldnt even get to recognise my ipod
[03:42] <Guest3565> frank1 you try using atunes?
[03:42] <Determinist> is there a way to install ubuntu server without installing python? i'd like to build python from source without having an existing installation of python in the system. my assumption is that this would be impossible, but i figured i'll ask anyways.
[03:42] <mdg_> frank1_: I've heard gtkpod works...
[03:42] <Jordan_U> !ipod | frank1_
[03:42] <frank1_> never herd of atunes
[03:42] <eddy> Guest31506, do you have 3d acceleration enabled? do you have libgl1-mesa-dev installed on your system? if not, do that
[03:42] <[[thufir]]> eddy: yeah, I'm using the synaptic gui, but surely there must be a scriptable approach to updating one package at a time?
[03:42] <mezquitale> anyone knows what port is safe to use on a bit torrent??  The ports I am trying are blocked by my ISP
[03:43] <Determinist> mezquitale: which ones have you tried and which one is your ISP?
[03:43] <Guest3565> frank1 it is the equivilant of itunes for linux users
[03:43] <mdg_> [[thufir]]: perhaps aptitude through console?
[03:43] <Jordan_U> [[thufir]]: Why not just keep running "sudo apt-get upgrade" untill all updates are finished downloading?
[03:43] <frank1_> ok can i find it in syst mang
[03:43] <wite> does anyone know how to configure x server to let me use three monitors with two nvidia cards. i have 1 and a half monitors working, but i can't get the other half of one, and the 3rd working correctly.
[03:43] <frank1_> apparentlly no
[03:43] <mezquitale> my isp is cablevision I have tried the default ports in deluge and also tried using a random port, I am still unable to connect using the bit torrent client
[03:44] <aleron> does anybody know how make kdenlive support avi files
[03:44] <Guest3565> frank1 no let me see if i can find it for you
[03:44] <rand0ms0me0ne> question- occasionally my mouse freezes... the pointer moves, the keyboard works, everything continues to move as normal except the mouse buttons stop working so even though the pointer moves its useless
[03:44] <Brando753> guys how can i get Flash to detect and use my webcam?
[03:44] <frank1_> do i dl the deb package?
[03:44] <sheena1> Having trouble with the touchpad on a Gateway T-1620. Tap-click works only part of the time. Anyone able to help? Running Jaunty, fresh install.
[03:44] <Determinist> mezquitale: it could be something else and not your ISP. are you behind a firewall? do you have a router?
[03:44] <rand0ms0me0ne> would that be a problem with X or the mouse or what? btw the mouse is a ms sidewinder...
[03:44] <frank1_> sorry im fairly new to this linux thing
[03:44] <Jordan_U> rand0ms0me0ne: Are you using multiple monitors?
[03:44] <mezquitale> I have a router, the clients used to work though, so I dont think it's the router
[03:44] <Guest3565> frank1 its at http://www.atunes.org
[03:45] <rand0ms0me0ne> Jordan_U: 4 on two gpu
[03:45] <eddy> Brando753, you first must make sure your webcam works under linux, meaning: is there a driver installed for it? and then flash should easily just detect it
[03:45] <rand0ms0me0ne> never had this problem with just one
[03:45] <frank1_> guest deb package?
[03:45] <Guest3565> Anyone know where i can get an already built copy of opengl or equiv. to directx for ubuntu 8.10??
[03:45] <kruykaze> how's that atunes? how does it compare with rhythmbox?
[03:45] <[[thufir]]> mdg_:  yes, but how do you get aptitude to download and install one package at a time, versus a large number of packages?
[03:46] <webbb82> what i dont get is i have used cairo-dock and avant and none of those were laggy but gnome do's docky is very slow and lags
[03:46] <Guest3565> kruykaze well once you get it working right its actually pretty sweet!  way better than ryhtymbox I think
[03:46] <eddy> [[thufir]], you could use wicd and set it to run 'sudo apt-get upgrade' on post-connection and add apt-get to the /etc/sudoers to avoid it asking the password all the time
[03:46] <danbhfive> Guest3565: I think you can just install the opengl bindings for whatever language you want to code in, and apt will handle the rest
[03:46] <kruykaze> Guest3565, in wat way?
[03:46] <mdg_> [[thufir]]: not sure - haven't used it enough...googling now....
[03:46] <Guest3565> webbb82 Avant is the best by far dock out there!
[03:47] <Determinist> mezquitale: could still be it, tho. the best way to check would be not using the router and testing with your modem directly connected to one of the machines. you could also set up port forwarding on your NAT, or DMZ. i doubt your ISP can block bittorrent ports, since bittorrent doesn't use any single well known port (and if your client does, that can be changed)
[03:47] <eddy> [[thufir]], actually scratch that idea i thought that only works for a LAN disconnect haha
[03:47] <webbb82> Guest31506, what makes awn the best?
[03:47] <mezquitale> Determinist, what port do you use??
[03:47] <Determinist> mezquitale: your ISP can use traffic shaping, but that's different.
[03:47] <Determinist> mezquitale: 57265
[03:48] <Guest3565> webbb82 because it has the most features and is the most compatible!  That is my opinion though!
[03:48] <Guest3565> eddy, you have any ideas on my opengl issue?
[03:48] <[[thufir]]> the best I can come up with is to gernate a list of packages, and then:  apt-get -y $(pkgs.txt)   but it's kinda cranky
[03:48] <candie_> ubuntu.fr
[03:48] <leaf-sheep> webbb82: I like Gnome-Do -- It is GRRRRRRREAT. With that, you longer do not need docks, you only need a panel. :)
[03:48] <webbb82> how can i find out what grafix card i have
[03:48] <eddy> Guest31506, do you have 3d acceleration enabled? do you have libgl1-mesa-dev installed on your system? if not, do that
[03:48] <eddy> Guest3565, do you have 3d acceleration enabled? do you have libgl1-mesa-dev installed on your system? if not, do that
[03:49] <eddy> woops
[03:49] <mdg_> [[thufir]]: you get tell aptitude to hold a package, according to the man page
[03:49] <mezquitale> Determinist, TCP port 57265 closed on MYIP
[03:49] <Determinist> any idea about my question from earlier, guys?
[03:49] <Guest3565> eddy yes 3d acceleration is on, but I have been trying to figure out how to get that mesa, already built of course cause i can't seem to figure out how to build things correctly!
[03:49] <Determinist> mezquitale: myip?
[03:50] <eddy> Guest3565, you should be able to install through apt-get or synaptic
[03:50] <RogerW> yo
[03:50] <eucalre> hi
[03:50] <mdg_> [[thufir]]: actually, you should be able to manipulate update manager to just download one package at a time - just unclick all but the first update....
[03:50] <kruykaze> Guest3565, i'll give it a try
[03:50] <mezquitale> Determinist, it's an ip of the form *.*.*.* where * = # from 1-254
[03:51] <eddy> mezquitale, i believe you can use 0 to 255
[03:51] <[[thufir]]> I saw the hold option, but wasn't clear how to script that.  I'd rather avoid the GUI, as this problem comes up repeatedly.
[03:51] <candie_> french??
[03:51] <Guest3565> kruykaze yeah its a great dock, is exactly the same as the dock for mac OS
[03:51] <lstarnes> !fr | candie_
[03:51] <mezquitale> eddy, 255 is usually the broadcast address LoL
[03:51] <Determinist> mezquitale: you can't be serious. i just talked to you about NAT, DMZ and port forwarding and you're telling me what an IP address is? i'm asking what MYIP is... not what an IP address is.
[03:52] <kruykaze> Guest3565, i meant atunes
[03:52] <eddy> mezquitale, not on mine
[03:52] <aleron> deos anybody know how to make kdenlive support avi files
[03:53] <eddy> oh nvm, for some reason i thought it was .1
[03:53] <eddy> lol o well

[03:55] <user111> I need to install a language in ubuntu 9.04
[03:55] <mdg_> Alan502: which part didn't work - the mounting ?
[03:55] <user111> how can that be done
[03:56] <user111> help?
[03:56] <seyfarth> why won't evolution let me proceed through its mailbox setup wizard? am i missing something? http://tinyurl.com/mkdbbz
[03:56] <Alan502> mmm
[03:56] <Determinist> i hate my ISP. annoying bastards are traffic shaping bittorrent packets and are practically choking up any bittorrent traffic entirely. this is such a bummer.
[03:56] <Alan502> try admin> something should come up user111
[03:56] <mattgyver> How can i set VLC as my default media application, trying to set it in preferred applications isnt working
[03:56] <lstarnes> user111: which one?
[03:56] <mudsplatter> seyfarth, why dont u use thunderbird
[03:56] <kruykaze> Guest3565, it doesn't work
[03:56] <Determinist> mezquitale: erm, i write code for a living O.o
[03:56] <user111> Arabic
[03:56] <Alan502> mdg_: i cannot manage my partition
[03:56] <user111> Is it hard to be done
[03:56] <mdg_> user111: Adminstration - Language Support
[03:57] <seyfarth> mudsplatter: need 100% exchange support. server-side mailbox, calendar, the works.
[03:57] <mdg_> Alan502: can't mount it?
[03:57] <user111> ok
[03:57] <user111> Will check mdg
[03:57] <lstarnes> user111: it just involves installing a couple packages
[03:57] <user111> thanx
[03:57] <user111> allot
[03:57] <KittyBoots> How can I trouble shoot cd burning errors?
[03:57] <mezquitale> Determinist, no dice, I have to configure a port in my router to be able to use a bit torrent client???
[03:57] <mdg_> user111: your welcome :)
[03:57] <kxm> Hi, I just ran dhclient eth0 on my fresh install of desktop 9.04, everything went fine, I'm talking to you now after all, but I got tyhe lines: chown: failed to get attributes of `/etc/resolv.conf': No such file or directory
[03:57] <kxm> chmod: failed to get attributes of `/etc/resolv.conf': No such file or directory
[03:57] <kxm> anybody help?
[03:57] <Determinist> mezquitale: yeah, that's quite common if you're behind a NAT
[03:57] <Alan502> ah the command line? i didnt try it to be honest :P
[03:58] <Alan502> but man, will that enable my D drive?
[03:58] <mezquitale> Determinist, it used to work fine though with my linksys router
[03:58] <Cyrano_De> Avoid the command line.  It is evil and all powerful
[03:58] <Determinist> mezquitale: i usually set up one of my machines as DMZ and run bittorrent from there.
[03:58] <Brando753> eddy: yes it is
[03:58] <lstarnes> user111: language-support-ar might be the package for it
[03:58] <eddy> compiz should enable mac's genie effect by default, but noooo they gotta make us hack the .so file to enable it
[03:58] <mdg_> Alan502: what did you try?
[03:58] <user111> thanks allot ppl
[03:58] <user111> got it
[03:58] <user111> :D
[03:58] <Determinist> mezquitale: too many variables, not sure what you had, but trying to lead you to a possible solution to what you're having right now.
[03:58] <Alan502> i tried going to partition manager in windows
[03:58] <mdg_> user111: \O/ yay!
[03:59] <Alan502> and looking for a way to move the partition onto the one i did before
[03:59] <lstarnes> kxm: you have no /etc/resolv.conf
[03:59] <lstarnes> kxm: try sudo touch /etc/resolv.conf
[03:59] <Alan502> man but
[03:59] <mdg_> Alan502: - made things worse huh!
[03:59] <mezquitale> Determinist, thanks, I'll take a look into my router later but first im going to see if it works on my neighbor's wireless, what are neighbors with open wireless for?
[03:59] <Alan502> haha but didnt find a way to do it
[03:59] <Alan502> mdg_ :/ im confused
[03:59] <kxm> istarnes, it just return a shell prompt, no errors, nothing at all
[03:59] <Alan502> going to try the command you gave
[03:59] <Alan502> me
[04:00] <lstarnes> kxm: that means it worked
[04:00] <seyfarth> anyone have any ideas why this won't let me click forward? http://tinyurl.com/mkdbbz
[04:00] <Alan502> but, again
[04:00] <lstarnes> kxm: in *nix, silence usually means success
[04:00] <Determinist> mezquitale: be fair tho :)
[04:00] <kxm> istarnes, thank-you, but worked in doing what?
[04:00] <mdg_> Alan502: had you played much with linux before
[04:00] <Alan502> what will that do mdg_? im worried to screw it up
[04:00] <Alan502> nope
[04:00] <kxm> istarnes: heh.
[04:00] <Alan502> this is my first linux distribution really
[04:00] <Alan502> the first i work with
[04:00] <lstarnes> kxm: sudo touch /etc/resolv.conf should have made an empty file at that location
[04:00] <mdg_> Alan502: live cd or install?
[04:01] <Alan502> i have it installed already as i told you
[04:01] <Jordan_U> [[thufir]]: You can already install the packages that have been downloaded so far, just apt-get install them and if all of their dependencies are also downlaoded they will install
[04:01] <Alan502> would you take a look at my post to see a more detailed explanation?
[04:01] <mdg_> Alan502: sorry meant had you used a live cd?
[04:01] <Alan502> i have
[04:01] <mdg_> Alan502: before you installed..
[04:01] <Alan502> ah yes
[04:01] <kxm> istarnes: okay thanks, I'll just trust that it's a good thing ;->
[04:01] <Alan502> i did
[04:02] <Alan502> can i post links here without getting banned?
[04:02] <Drained> Hey guys, there's a really strange problem lol, my window manager, doesn't have a pshysical form
[04:02] <rand0ms0me0ne_> Jordan_U: sorry for dc, mouse froze, restarted x
[04:02] <mdg_> Alan502: which partition do you try to move in windows?
[04:02] <kxm> alan502: yes.
[04:02] <Drained> I can minimize, exit etc, those entire panelare missing
[04:02] <adnan> im sooo exhaused of searching.....im running ubuntu 9.04, how can I make metacity my default windows manager (i know i can run metacity --replace) but I want to stop compiz from kicking in altogether
[04:02] <rand0ms0me0ne_> Jordan_U: any suggestions about my previously mentioned problem with mouse freezes?
[04:02] <Alan502> mdg_: please look at my detailed explanation: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7977021
[04:02] <Drained> adnan: uninstall compiz?
[04:03] <adnan> Drained: i don't know if that is what i want to do...i might have to show off at the next board meeting...heheh
[04:03] <eddy> adnan, go to System > Prefs > Appearance > Visual Effect and select None
[04:03] <Drained> ahh, well adding a Startup shortcut to replace metacity
[04:03] <Drained> could do the trick
[04:03] <fxfitz> Is there a way to control which users have access to start servers on what ports??
[04:03] <mdg_> Alan502: did you resize the partition before you installed - how did you resize?
[04:03] <bastid_raZor> adnan: system>preferences>appearances .. visual effects. choose None
[04:04] <soreau> adnan: Sys>Prefs>Appearance>Visual Effects tab>None
[04:04] <adnan> eddy: i tried that but after rebooting compiz is enabled and nothing in the Appearance window is selected
[04:04] <adnan> bastid_raZor: soreau : i treid that option but it resets after reboot.
[04:04] <Drained> Well back to my question, the entire "grabable" or "clickable" panel ontop of each window is missing! idk what to do once i start 1 window i have to stick to it because i cant alt-tab to switch or "x" out of it
[04:04] <soreau> Drained: There's no need to uninstall compiz. Simply set gnome-appearance-properties to none
[04:04] <Drained> anyone know?
[04:04] <Alan502> no i didnt
[04:04] <adnan> after reboot when i open the appearance window nothing is selected and compiz is active
[04:04] <Alan502> resize what partition?
[04:04] <Alan502> the D?
[04:04] <Alan502> mdg_?
[04:04] <Jordan_U> rand0ms0me0ne_: It sounds similar to this ( fixed, for most at least ) bug. https://launchpad.net/bugs/296167
[04:04] <eddy> weird
[04:05] <mdg_> Alan502: by chance are you using wubi?
[04:05] <soreau> adnan: Do you have comiz as part of your startup programs in sys>prefs>startup programs? Or fusion-icon for that matter?
[04:05] <Alan502> nope
[04:05] <Drained> the entire "grabable" or "clickable" panel ontop of each window is missing! idk what to do once i start 1 window i have to stick to it because i cant alt-tab to switch or "x" out of it
[04:05] <Alan502> i am not, i thought about it
[04:05] <Alan502> but i could not get wubi on the usb stick
[04:05] <adnan> i tried to go to Gconf ->  desktop -> gnome -> apps -> wind_manager , but it says that key is no longer in used in  ubu 9.04
[04:05] <adnan> soreau: nope
[04:06] <sinan> i am having bad sectors on my hard disk. Is there a way to remap those?
[04:06] <Drained> oh never mind i fixed it compiz is messed up :(
[04:06] <fxfitz> Is it possible to control which tcp/udp ports users have access to starting servers on?
[04:06] <eddy> adnan, do you have compiz settings manager installed?
[04:06] <bastid_raZor> Drained: in ccsm check window decorations
[04:06] <adnan> eddy:  yes
[04:06] <Alan502> mdg_?
[04:06] <Alan502> any ideas man?
[04:06] <soreau> adnan: Then it shouldn't be starting at all. You can chmod -X `which compiz` to ensure it never starts again
[04:06] <soreau> -x*
[04:06] <adnan> soreau: interesting
[04:07] <mdg_> Alan502: when you try to access the D: drive - you mean from ubuntu right?
[04:07] <adnan> soreau: so next time i want to run compiz im gonna have to change permission i suppose
[04:07] <eddy> adnan, try unchecking EVERYTHING in the compiz settings manager
[04:07] <Drained> bastid_razor what exacly am i looking for
[04:07] <Drained> in ccsm
[04:07] <adnan> eddy: ok
[04:07] <soreau> adnan: Yes, and you'd have to chmod
[04:07] <eddy> cus that overrides anything in Appearance > Visual FX
[04:07] <bastid_raZor> Drained: window decorations .. check that box.
[04:07] <soreau> adnan: Yes, and you'd have to chmod +x /usr/bin/compiz
[04:07] <Alan502> when i try to access the D drive from windows, i cannot open it. From ubuntu, i can, mdg_
[04:07] <Drained> i know what am i looking for in there
[04:07] <adnan> soreau: eddy : how can i tamper with the settings of gnome- Settings Daemon
[04:07] <adnan> maybe there is something in there
[04:07] <soreau> adnan: Actually it's be better to do that to compiz.real since compiz is a script on ubuntu
[04:08] <mdg_> Alan502: I forgot... you are trying to fix windows so you can access your D drive again right?
[04:08] <adnan> soreau: hmmm i c
[04:08] <eddy> adnan, unchecking all those settings may just do it
[04:08] <eddy> haha chmod -x /usr/bin/compiz may work
[04:08] <soreau> adnan: Also, check to see what you have in gconf-editor /desktop/gnome/required components/windowmanager?
[04:08] <Alan502> mdg_: exactly :D
[04:09] <mdg_> Alan502: in ubuntu your D: shows ntfs?
[04:09] <Drained> bastid_razor: nope not that lol
[04:09] <Alan502> mdg_: yes, it shows ntfs
[04:09] <jiohdi> how do I integrate 7zip into the arc manager so that extract here appears in the menu?
[04:09] <bastid_raZor> Drained: are you missing the title bars or panels in gnome?
[04:09] <Drained> Yes Bastid
[04:10] <mdg_> Alan502: does the D: drive contain the window boot manager?
[04:10] <bastid_raZor> Drained: that was not a yes or no question.
[04:10] <Alan502> mdg_: windows boot manager? thats in C
[04:10] <Drained> Yes it is you asked if i was missing them.
[04:10] <Alan502> in D i only had Data and programs
[04:11] <Drained> it's a flat edge, nothing above the actual "window" of the program is there for isntance im on pidgin only converation and opitons are there
[04:11] <zooko> I have a question about Ubuntu Hardy as a server (feel free to direct me to a more appropriate channel).  Can I easily set up a watchdog that reboots the system if it hangs?  A server is hanging with out-of-memory errors.
[04:11] <obiwan__> hi please
[04:11] <Jordan_U> Alan502: Is Windows the first partition?
[04:11] <mdg_> Alan502: not sure how to force windows to boot the partition...
[04:11] <obiwan__> any dpkg -l substitute in apt-get/cache?
[04:11] <binskipy2u> anyone have an opinion good or bad of Kmail vs thunderbird vs evolution?
[04:11] <Alan502> yes Jordan_U
[04:11] <Alan502> the only problem
[04:11] <eddy> ah if you're trying to edit boot options in vista or 7, try msconfig ... a thought
[04:11] <Alan502> is that i cant access D
[04:11] <lstarnes> obiwan__: maybe apt-file list packagename
[04:11] <eddy> just remembered that handy tool :)
[04:11] <Alan502> mdg_: thanks :) formating then?
[04:12] <mdg_> Alan502: you might ask in #windows how to force a mount of a nonbooting ntfs partition
[04:12] <Jordan_U> zooko: There may be a simpler way, but you can compile a kernel with options to panic on OOM and restart on panic
[04:12] <Alan502> what do you mean?
[04:12] <obiwan__> thx i'll try lstarnes, what i want is to list all installed/installable packages , with apt-get
[04:12] <Alan502> man i can boot windows
[04:12] <mdg_> Alan502: at least so you can back up your stuff and not lose it.
[04:12] <Alan502> but i cannot access the D drive!
[04:12] <lstarnes> obiwan__: apt-cache does that
[04:12] <zooko> Jordan_U: is there a prebuilt kernel with such features for Ubuntu?  If not, what are the options I should look for?
[04:12] <Alan502> windows works perefectly
[04:12] <obiwan__> how lstarnes?
[04:12] <Alan502> and yeah i can back it up
[04:12] <obiwan__> search won't
[04:12] <Alan502> with ubuntu
[04:12] <Alan502> via network
[04:12] <obiwan__> apt-cache search won't lstarnes
[04:12] <FloodBot2> Alan502: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:12] <lstarnes> obiwan__: maybe apt-cache dump
[04:12] <eddy> Alan502, what does it say when you try to access your D drive?
[04:13] <obiwan__> brb ;)
[04:13] <Alan502> Cant access D:\ directory damaged or ilegible.
[04:13] <Drained> Bastid_razor: the "X" minimize maximize "drag" panel is completley missing
[04:13] <Jordan_U> zooko: I doubt there is a pre-built kernel, there is a change that it's configurable without recompiling though
[04:13] <Jordan_U> zooko: s/change/chance
[04:13] <adok> Does anybody knows a FiSH program called dirtirc? its for FiSH encryption for all the irc clients, im having troubles compile this.
[04:13] <Alan502> mdg_: although form partition manager and ubuntu i can see all the files
[04:13] <mdg_> Alan502: I used the term mount with windows - which is incorrect - I meant access the your storage drive (D:)
[04:13] <Alan502> *from
[04:13] <Chips_Handon> hey guys. im haveing a problem with my pen drive. for some reason it is now read-only and i dont know how to fix it. help would be nice
[04:13] <bastid_raZor> Drained: in compiz the windows decoration plugin controls that.
[04:13] <eddy> Alan502, have you run a filesystem check on it?
[04:14] <Drained> Bastid_razor: i'm aware of that, but even when it's disabled that panel is missing
[04:14] <Alan502> eddy: chkdisk? i cannot run it, because of the same error
[04:14] <mdg_> Alan502: defrag?
[04:14] <obiwan__> that certainly works lstarnes , but lists all packages + info + dependancies, i just want names
[04:14] <Drained> bastid_razor: this is the command gtk-window-decorator --replace
[04:14] <bastid_raZor> Drained: it needs to be enabled in order for them to show
[04:14] <zooko> Jordan_U: thanks for the tips.  Sounds pretty good.  My next issue is "Why are there no /var/log/syslog or other log files...".
 First, enable the window decoration plugin then start a decorator (gtk-window-decorator --replace)
[04:15] <Alan502> mdg_: cant defrag neither, actually it wasnt fragmented at all, i run defragmentation every friday
[04:15] <obiwan__> lstarnes,  i know i can filter , but isn't there any command to just list names ? lstarnes ? :(
[04:15] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> umm you're trying to access ext3 file system from windows? do you have the ext3 driver loaded in windows?
[04:15] <bastid_raZor> Drained: compiz-decorator ?
[04:15] <eddy> so has anyone gotten splashy to work in jaunty?
[04:15] <lstarnes> obiwan__: please be patient while I look for an alternative
[04:15] <Drained> EVEN ON it's missing
[04:15] <Drained> \off or on it doesn't show
[04:15] <Jordan_U> zooko: For a while I also had a dirty hack that I used for my olpc xo, I just created a script that looped checking how much free memory there was and at 90 % ( before it had the chance to become unresponsive ) triggered the kernel OOM-killer
[04:15] <Alan502> eddy: hahaha sh*t storm?
[04:15] <lstarnes> obiwan__: I generally see things the first time you say them
[04:15] <zooko>  /var/log is owned by root and isn't group writable.  /var/log/syslog is written by a user named "syslog".  How did this ever work?
[04:15] <eddy> Alan502, idk made it up lol
[04:15] <mdg_> Alan502: not fragmented, but cannot ntfs partition cannot be accessed from within windows???
[04:15] <zooko> Jordan_U: ;-)  Sweeet.
[04:16] <Alan502> n8tuser: no, i am trying to access an ntfs partition
