[07:03] <dogson> nevans, partition image,
[07:03] <Owner> darkkith, i didn't want to stash out $25 for intel wireless and didn't know if it'd work
[07:03] <PurpZeY> carl_: Now start following the directions again so do cd akamaru
[07:03] <clubs> is there a converter the quality of which is equivalent to dBpoweramp - I want to convert flac to ogg-q4(vbr)
[07:03] <mahout> i tried looking online but i cant find ne thing that helps, i did however find that the drive im trying to mount is fat32
[07:03] <darkkith> Owner if you are asking if it works, it worked out of the box for me in ...
[07:03] <vontux> can anyone help me out with a gunzip / dd question?
[07:04] <mahout> this seems to be a problem
[07:04] <darkkith> feisty and gutsy, so far as i can remember
[07:04] <Owner> thanks darkkith
[07:04] <PurpZeY> carl_: Please cut and paste each line b/c it's in a small font and hard to read and it's important you do it correctly.
[07:04] <darkkith> back to sleep, gnite
[07:04] <PurpZeY> carl_: Mostly the line containing ./autogen.sh
[07:05] <carl_> carl@carl-desktop:~/kiba/akamaru$ thats where I am now
[07:05] <sean> hey can anyone tell me why serpentine won't add MP3's to the file list so i can burn them onto a CD-R?
[07:05] <PurpZeY> carl_: Ok, now cut and paste the next line from the website
[07:05] <mahout> soldats: still on?
[07:05] <soldats> yuh
[07:06] <mahout> hey
[07:06] <mahout> so i check online
[07:06] <carl_> ok paste ./autogen.sh  --prefix="/usr"
[07:06] <mahout> it seems the prob im running into is that the drive im mounting is fat32
[07:06] <PurpZeY> carl_: paste it into terminal...:P
[07:07] <mahout> ne ideas or should i remove it int\stall linux on it using dif comp, then wipe and re install?
[07:07] <carl_> ok done
[07:08] <PurpZeY> carl_: Now make (this may look like a lot of garbled mess and may return an error or two during the process, but as long as it is successful it is ok)
[07:09] <soldats> mahout, is there personal data on it? id suggest reformating it to ext3
[07:10] <mahout> theres nothing on it but i havent figured out how to reformat from ubuntu
[07:11] <soldats> mahout, google format/install 2nd hdd on linux. or "man fdisk" in a terminal
[07:11] <clubs> is there a converter for ubuntu the quality of which is equivalent to dBpoweramp - I want to convert flac to ogg-q4(vbr)
[07:12] <mahout> soldats: i did man fdisk, and that is one huge page
[07:12] <mahout> soldats:ill check it out thnx for the help
[07:12] <evil_tech> stupid ITE8212 controller
[07:13] <tcpdumpgod> sweet, IRC on my cell phone.
[07:14] <neverblue2> is there a linux version of something similar to Norton Ghost ?
[07:14] <grekkos> how come when I add more to my PATH in ~/.profile it doesn't actually add anything?
[07:14] <carl_> ok wut do I do next?
[07:14] <neverblue2> grekkos whats the command your using to add ?
[07:14] <PurpZeY> carl_: sudo make install
[07:15] <grekkos> neverblue2: PATH=~/myscripts:"${PATH}"
[07:15] <vontux> neverblue2: look up partimage and dd
[07:15] <PurpZeY> carl_: That will also return what looks like garbled mess.
[07:15] <grekkos> oh dd is nice
[07:15] <grekkos> but dangerous
[07:15] <neverblue2> vontux is that for copying a linux system, or is it for copying any system ?
[07:15] <carl_> ok wuts next I ran that
[07:15] <neverblue2> i want to image my windows box
[07:15] <evil_tech> have they made it so it can ignore empty space?
[07:15] <joot> !register
[07:16] <vontux> neverblue2: me too :) I'm doing so tonight
[07:16] <vontux> I thing for both
[07:16] <PurpZeY> carl_: If you ran that successfully cd .. (so you are back into the /kiba directory)
[07:16] <grekkos> neverblue2: i'm pretty sure dd works for any
[07:16] <neverblue2> vontux using both of them ?
[07:16] <stdin> I think ubotu's napping
[07:16] <vontux> yeah, restoring a dual boot to a larger hd, and then resizing to get more space
[07:16] <carl_> I'm still in akamaru
[07:16] <Qnix> hello guys :D
[07:16] <PurpZeY> carl_: cd ..
[07:16] <zetheroo> is it possible to change the size of the icons displayed on the desktop?
[07:16] <Madagascar> How can I tell if opengl is installed and working on my ubuntu?
[07:17] <zakk> glxinfo | grep direct
[07:17] <carl_> type cd
[07:17] <zakk> in a terminal
[07:17] <PurpZeY> carl_: No type "cd .."
[07:17] <grekkos> i'm having doubts that my .profile is even being executed.. but i don't have a .bash_login file present either in my home folder
[07:17] <Madagascar> zakk: is that for me?
[07:17] <zetheroo> anyone?
[07:17] <neverblue2> vontux have a URL to a guide u used ?
[07:17] <zakk> yes, Madagascar
[07:17] <Madagascar> zakk: thanks :)
[07:18] <vontux> neverblue2: one moment....
[07:18] <neverblue2> thanks
[07:18] <praya2> hi i installed wireless drivers for broadcom 43xx family
[07:18] <neverblue2> grekkos can you repost your reply ?
[07:18] <praya2> but that didn't work
[07:18] <praya2> so now i installed them using ndiswrapper
[07:19] <grekkos> export PATH=~/myscripts:"${PATH}"
[07:19] <carl_> ok I'm there
[07:19] <grekkos> that was directed towards neverblue2
[07:19] <praya2> this works but after every reboot i need to remove bcm43xx for wirkless to work
[07:19] <praya2> using rmmod bcm43xx
[07:19] <PurpZeY> carl_: Ok, so continue along the guide cd kiba-dock then copy and paste the ./autogen.sh line
[07:19] <praya2> any permanent solution
[07:19] <vontux> neverblue2: http://www.linuxweblog.com/dd-image
[07:20] <carl_> I don't get wut u mean
[07:20] <evil_tech> praya2: i think you need to blacklist the module so it will be ignored by the system
[07:20] <neverblue2> sorry, im falling alseep at the wheel, i need to hit the hay
[07:20] <carl_> u mean compile kiba-dock
[07:20] <praya2> evil_tech: how do i do that
[07:20] <praya2> someone told me using udev or something
[07:20] <PurpZeY> carl_: Well, that's the step you are at...so first cd kiba-dock and then cut and paste the next line
[07:21] <PurpZeY> carl_: that line "compile kiba-dock:" is just to organize the guide
[07:21] <vontux> neverblue2: the "gzip -x" option doesn't work for the restore part though, try "gunzip -c foo.gz | dd of=/dev/somedrive conv=sync,noerror bs=64K"
[07:21] <evil_tech> praya2: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-wireless-networking-41/howto-bcm43xx-broadcom-drivers-462995/
[07:22] <neverblue2> vontux no URL though ?
[07:22] <grekkos> Is there a way to tell if my .profile script is being executed properly?
[07:22] <dogson> neverblue, or partimage if you need a gui
[07:22] <squarebracket> can someone help we with my tablet? neither /dev/wacom nor /dev/input/wacom exist.
[07:22] <vontux> neverblue2: http://www.linuxweblog.com/dd-image
[07:22] <carl_> ok ./autogen.sh  --enable-akamaru I did that line
[07:22] <PurpZeY> carl_: now make
[07:22] <vontux> neverblue2: the part about restoration doesn't work though, so use what I said instead
[07:22] <vontux> neverblue2: at least I hope that works :)
[07:23] <neverblue2> thanks
[07:23] <neverblue2> nite
[07:23] <carl_> type in make?
[07:24] <zenwryly> I'm looking for docs on using the external monitor port on my laptop under ubuntu.  Any pointers?
[07:24] <PurpZeY> carl_: yes

[07:24] <vontux> zenwrly: for 7.04 or lower google "switchmon"
[07:24] <evil_tech> np
[07:24] <carl_> ok did that
[07:24] <grekkos> What's the difference bertween .bashrc and .profile
[07:25] <PurpZeY> carl_: sudo make install
[07:25] <Myrtti> hullo
[07:25] <carl_> ok ran that
[07:26] <PurpZeY> carl_: You are in /kiba-dock  ?
[07:26] <carl_> yes
[07:26] <Myrtti> am I losing my eyesight or is the vmware-player missing from the commercial repositories?
[07:26] <PurpZeY> carl_: Ok, cool, so now cd .. again
[07:26] <PurpZeY> carl_: back out to /kiba
[07:27] <carl_> carl@carl-desktop:~/kiba$  thats wut I am in now
[07:27] <PurpZeY> carl_: You are there NOW, you ran the cd .. command, correct?
[07:27] <mnemonica> QUESTION! Does gutsy already have OpenGL installed on it? Or do I have to get anything for OpenGL stuff to work correctly?
[07:28] <PurpZeY> carl_: You were in /kiba/kiba-dock when you ran the last commands?
[07:29] <carl_> yes
[07:29] <PurpZeY> carl_: Ok, cool, just checking...next step then....cd kiba-plugins

[07:30] <test1-ba-pdgin> I downlowded all of repository of ubuntu from archive.ubuntu.com and made a local repository for my own but
[07:31] <carl_> ok next
[07:31] <test1-ba-pdgin> afterrunning the "apt-get update" command it tells me:
[07:31] <neeto> I am trying to edit the main applications menu in ubuntu, but when I open the menu editor it only lists the system menu as one entry... how do I edit the REAL menu?
[07:31] <PurpZeY> carl_: sudo make install
[07:31] <yokobr> hey guys
[07:31] <yokobr> finnaly made it
[07:31] <test1-ba-pdgin> E: Wow, you exceeded the number of versions this APT is capable of.
[07:31] <yokobr> wow
[07:31] <yokobr> i need to tell everybody
[07:31] <test1-ba-pdgin> it seems from that message is that the size of my repository , isn't it ?
[07:31] <yokobr> it was SO hard to make it
[07:31] <carl_> it says to just type make to compile the lugins here
[07:32] <carl_> in terminal
[07:32] <yokobr> i'm the one that had trouble with ubuntu, with lot of params on booting.. finnaly, i made it.
[07:32] <PurpZeY> carl_: What is the last command you ran?
[07:32] <yokobr> still with no sound, but running.
[07:32] <carl_> ./autogen.sh
[07:32] <Guydin> ok, apparently I have 2 sound cards, one on my MB and one in a slot, and ubuntu is using the MB one, how do I switch to the other?  it detects both
[07:33] <carl_> that
[07:33] <PurpZeY> carl_: Ok, do make
[07:33] <yokobr> i had to use noapic nosplash xmodule=vesa acpi=noirq options
[07:33] <carl_> ok did that now next
[07:33] <yokobr> and cut out "quiet"
[07:33] <PurpZeY> carl_: now sudo make install
[07:34] <carl_> ok next
[07:34] <PurpZeY> carl_: Do you use pidgin?
[07:34] <carl_> yes
[07:34] <carl_> all the time
[07:35] <PurpZeY> carl_: Ok, so then cd .. and cd kiba-gain-pidgin
[07:35] <yokobr> ah
[07:35] <yokobr> i cant believe it
[07:35] <carl_> no such directory
[07:35] <ozzloy> suspend works on my laptop now!@ thank you all!
[07:36] <PurpZeY> carl_: first cd .. so you are in /kiba
[07:36] <Jinxed-> I have an Nvidia graphics card if I want dual montiors should i use the seperate X screen or Twin view under the NVIDIA settings to accomplish this?
[07:36] <carl_> yes
[07:36] <zakk> twin view
[07:36] <zakk> Jinxed-: ^^6
[07:36] <PurpZeY> carl_: Actually, it was my bad....it's now cd kiba-dbus-plugins
[07:36] <vgramanathan> identify mypassword
[07:36] <carl_> ok

[07:38] <yokobr> now i have to edit my boot options...
[07:38] <carl_> ok I did that
[07:38] <yokobr> how can i choose my resolution on boot ?
[07:38] <yokobr> on grub?
[07:38] <neeto> Is there an application that will help me organize my applications menu?
[07:38] <PurpZeY> carl_: make
[07:39] <vgramanathan> yokobr : you can add vga=791 at the end of the line starting with 'kernel ...'
[07:39] <carl_> ok next
[07:39] <vgramanathan> 791 is the 1024x768 mode
[07:39] <PurpZeY> carl_: sudo make install
[07:39] <vgramanathan> There are other modes also, see gentoo Handbook under grub install for details
[07:40] <tinin> hey, what's a good wifi detection and conection application?
[07:40] <yokobr> vgramanathan, i want to insert like "1024x768@60Hz"
[07:41] <vgramanathan> yokobr : Which resolution do you want to change, the grub screen's or your display resolution after logging in?
[07:41] <carl_> ok next
[07:41] <neeto> Is there an application that will help me organize my applications menu?
[07:41] <PurpZeY> carl_: cd .. back out to /kiba
[07:41] <yokobr> after login
[07:41] <PurpZeY> carl_: then do cd kiba-g (and hit tab---this will autocomplete so you don't typo it)
[07:42] <yokobr> vgramanathan, my default desktop screen. Like on xorg.conf.
[07:42] <vgramanathan> yokobr : You don't have to do this in grub configuration, edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[07:42] <Vanuatoo_> I noticed that sometimes files are downloaded from security.ubuntu.com instead of my local mirror while doing system update. Is it intentional or my mirror does not have that files?
[07:42] <yokobr> yeap.
[07:42] <jeeaar> I'm looking to secure my home network, and was wondering if there was a way to scan a range of ip's for a responding ftp file server? If so, how is it done and can it be defended against?
[07:42] <yokobr> right
[07:42] <yokobr> i got it.
[07:42] <PurpZeY> carl_: Then you should be in /kiba/kiba-gaim-plugin
[07:42] <carl_> yes I am
[07:43] <yokobr> vgramanathan, ive been trying for many days to install ubuntu on my pc.
[07:43] <PurpZeY> carl_: ./autogen.sh
[07:43] <zakk> jeeaar: I'm pretty sure the standard is nmap
[07:43] <yokobr> but i had many conflicts with acpi and video.
[07:43] <yokobr> tonight, or this morning, i've finnaly made it.
[07:43] <jeeaar> yes, but can you combine say... the -sV option with a 192.168.0.* type scan?
[07:43] <yokobr> it was hard...
[07:44] <yokobr> and ive seen many people with the same proble.
[07:44] <yokobr> m
[07:44] <carl_> ok next
[07:44] <yokobr> wish i could help them.
[07:44] <PurpZeY> carl_: make

[07:44] <vgramanathan> This is the best way to get help quickly
[07:44] <yokobr> yeap!
[07:45] <carl_> ok next
[07:45] <PurpZeY> carl_: sudo make install
[07:45] <yokobr> vgramanathan. i had to try many params until it worked.
[07:45] <carl_> ok next

[07:46] <yokobr> vgramanathan, is there a way to update ubuntu for ubuntu studio, by cd?

[07:47] <jengle_> hi everyone.
[07:47] <PurpZeY> carl_: My typo...sorry sudo updatedb
[07:47] <vgramanathan> yokobr, if you installed ubuntu by CD, it should have added some lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:47] <vgramanathan> You can try using apt-get update now
[07:47] <jengle_> is there a vnc server that interfaces well with GNOME?
[07:48] <vgramanathan> If you want a newer distribution of ubuntu, you should look for apt-get dist-upgrade after adding that CD to the repository list
[07:48] <yokobr> right!
[07:48] <angryworm> Just change source country
[07:48] <Cromag> !vnc
[07:48] <Ubotwo> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[07:48] <angryworm> I had same problem to....
[07:48] <vgramanathan> You can do this by System -> Administration -> Software Sources

[08:01] <preaction> narg, iptables doesn't have built-in QoS, but there is a way. give me a minute to look for it
[08:01] <test1-ba-pdgin> I have a big problem with apt-get system as follows:
[08:01] <PurpZeY> carl_: now cd kiba-pl (hit tab--autocomplete)
[08:01] <neeto> Is there an application that will help me organize my applications menu?
[08:01] <test1-ba-pdgin> I downlowded all of repository of ubuntu from archive.ubuntu.com and made a local repository for my own but
[08:01] <test1-ba-pdgin> afterrunning the "apt-get update" command it tells me:
[08:01] <carl_> ok there
[08:01] <archiebald> /part
[08:01] <test1-ba-pdgin> E: Wow, you exceeded the number of versions this APT is capable of.
[08:01] <PurpZeY> carl_: so, ./autogen.sh
[08:02] <yokobr> hey guys
[08:02] <yokobr> no sound here =/
[08:02] <hataricus> hello every1
[08:02] <carl_> ok
[08:02] <yokobr> i have an nforce4 chipset
[08:02] <carl_> next
[08:02] <PurpZeY> carl_: make
[08:02] <hataricus> can i get some help with running tvtime ?
[08:03] <MasterShrek`> tvtime --help
[08:03] <hataricus> :)
[08:03] <hataricus> its not starting
[08:03] <hataricus> it says i dont have support for yuy2 overlay
[08:03] <MasterShrek`> does it give you an error?
[08:03] <MasterShrek`> interesting
[08:03] <preaction> narg, iproute2 is the name of the linux service that will do it. apparently something called "tcng" will make configuration easier
[08:03] <hataricus> i installed my video graphics
[08:03] <MasterShrek`> ive never used tvtime b4
[08:03] <narg> preaction: Thanks :)
[08:03] <carl_> ok next
[08:03] <PurpZeY> carl_: sudo make install
[08:03] <yokobr> please, i need help to enable sound
[08:04] <carl_> ok next
[08:04] <hataricus> lol what do u use for watching channels on a tv tuner /
[08:04] <MasterShrek`> yokobr, in a termial do: lspci -v | grep Audio          and paste the output here
[08:04] <archiebald> When I try to use the "sudo" command I get this error message "sudo: unable to lookup sbc.sbcglobal.net via gethostbyname()" I messed up and changed the host name when I was tring to enable my eth connection how to I change it back?
[08:04] <interceptor> does anyone knows russian here ?
[08:04] <preaction> narg, good luck though, last i knew iproute2 was difficult to configure, hopefully tcng will fix that. i use a *BSD with PF because it's got a very nice configuration interface.
[08:04] <megatog615> is anyone here using nouveau?
[08:04] <PurpZeY> !ru
[08:04] <Ubotwo> Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке  / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke
[08:04] <interceptor> no
[08:04] <MasterShrek`> hataricus, i never have to be honest
[08:05] <hataricus> what do u guys use for wathcing TV ?
[08:05] <hataricus> thnx mastershrek :P
[08:05] <yokobr> MasterShrek, 00:04.0 Multimedia audio controller: nVidia Corporation CK804 AC'97 Audio Controller (rev a2)
[08:05] <interceptor> I just wanted to ask - will the IPTables help if DoS Attack ocures ?
[08:05] <astro76> hataricus: tvtime, you obviously have some video issue
[08:05] <astro76> hataricus: using compiz?
[08:05] <megatog615> the nouveau xorg package from the ppa doesn't even have a driver
[08:05] <narg> preaction: Configuration shouldn't be a big deal; I'm used to arcane *nix tools, I just can't always find the right one.
[08:05] <hataricus> noob alert : yes
[08:05] <hataricus> i saw compiz around there somewhere
[08:06] <archiebald> any help?
[08:06] <hataricus> with fglrxinfo my card is seen correctly ( or so i think )
[08:06] <carl_> ok wut next
[08:06] <PurpZeY> carl_: alt + f2 try to run it again
[08:06] <MasterShrek> yokobr, hmm, you need to make sure that the ac97 driver is being loaded i think, not really sure the name of the module though, ac97 maybe.. try: sudo modprobe ac97
[08:06] <yokobr> MasterShrek, 00:04.0 Multimedia audio controller: nVidia Corporation CK804 AC'97 Audio Controller (rev a2)
[08:06] <th0r> interceptor probably not. The whole idea of a DOS attack is to keep the target so occupied throwing away bogus packets it has no time to do anything else
[08:06] <archiebald> When I try to use the "sudo" command I get this error message "sudo: unable to lookup sbc.sbcglobal.net via gethostbyname()" I messed up and changed the host name when I was tring to enable my eth connection how to I change it back?
[08:07] <yokobr> sudo modprobe ac97
[08:07] <astro76> hataricus: you could try #compiz-fusion too
[08:07] <hataricus> ok, i will thnx :)
[08:07] <th0r> archiebald  edit /etc/hosts
[08:07] <carl_> it says I had an error
[08:07] <PurpZeY> carl_: what error?
[08:07] <archiebald> do I need to be root to edit /etc/hosts ?
[08:08] <archiebald> I can't use the sudo command
[08:08] <carl_> install-Recrusive
[08:08] <test1-ba-pdgin> hi, is not there anyone helping me for my above problem ? :-(
[08:08] <narg> archiebald: you can edit it using sudo.
[08:08] <PurpZeY> carl_: try to run it from a terminal again ?
[08:08] <th0r> archiebald when you boot the computer, at the grub menu type 'single'
[08:09] <carl_> failed to locate plugins again
[08:09] <th0r> archiebald but I have some doubt that the hostname is the cause of your problem
[08:09] <archiebald> ok thank you
[08:09] <archiebald> what might it be
[08:10] <PurpZeY> carl_: I dunno, I don't know why you are having that issue, you might have compiled it incorrectly somehow....Ask in #kiba-dock but it should be installed and running...I don't know what the issue is...Normally, I'd help you troubleshoot it but I am seriously passing out behidn my keyboard
[08:10] <carl_> ok thats fine thank you for the help
[08:10] <th0r> archiebald not sure. but I don't think hostname has anything to do with sudo. BTW...you need to type 'single init=/bin/sh' at the grub menu
[08:11] <PurpZeY> carl_: Sorry I couldn't get you up and running, but you are definitely close...some small piece missing...ask in #kiba-dock and if you need to I'll be around tomorrow.
[08:11] <supersako> I have been looking for a good text editor for programming that does syntax highlighting, any developers in here want to point me to a good one?
[08:11] <PurpZeY> carl_: Also, try googling that error with kiba-dock
[08:11] <carl_> ok thanks
[08:12] <Das> hallo bin noch da
[08:12] <PurpZeY> carl_: Good luck.  Besides...the 'new' languages are no brainers <smile>

[08:17] <Captain_Haddock> he's gone
[08:18] <Captain_Haddock> My hard drive crashed and I've replaced it with a hard drive from another system where the board is dead.
[08:18] <Captain_Haddock> However, my sound card doesn't appear to be detected.
[08:18] <hataricus> back :)
[08:19] <hataricus> what do u guys use to watch tv on a linux based cpu?
[08:19] <Captain_Haddock> any idea how I can get Linux to redetect my harddrive ?
[08:19] <lizili> has anybody use xubuntu7.10 ? i have something wrong with xfce-terminal ~~
[08:19] <jason__> Anyone know how to open slaxmodules in ubuntu *.lzm
[08:19] <Captain_Haddock> hataricus: the two eyes that god gave me? :P
[08:19] <pretender> can anyone help me I'm running 7.10 and my resolution has changed back to 640x480.
[08:19] <hataricus> funny haddock :P
[08:19] <jason__> Can't find lzm2dir for ubuntu
[08:21] <Captain_Haddock> pretender: you should be able to set it via system settings
[08:21] <Captain_Haddock> under monitor / display or something
[08:21] <Captain_Haddock> hataricus: :P I don't know, sorry.
[08:21] <pretender> no the higher resolutions are not there anymore
[08:21] <hataricus> pretender: system->administration-> screen and graphics preferences
[08:22] <hataricus> maybe you have to reinstall your graphics card
[08:22]  * Captain_Haddock forgot he was in #Ubuntu
[08:22] <th0r> pretender have you tried to reconfig X?
[08:23] <th0r> pretender sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh
[08:23] <pretender> havent tried to reconfigure x the only other res to chose from is 320 X
[08:23] <th0r> pretender no guarantee....but it might take care of it

[08:26] <hataricus> hi randompolygamy :)
[08:26] <Randompolygamy> Im running Gutsy and my flash and gstreamer plugins are all boggeled, where would i find the plugins to remove them manualy? so i can re apply new ones
[08:27] <Randompolygamy> Thats for Firefox, sorry i forgot to add that
[08:27] <Randompolygamy> hello hataricus
[08:27] <th0r> Randompolygamy I believe firefox plugins are stored in /usr/lib/firefox/plugins
[08:28] <sriki> what do it do after sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh ?
[08:28] <Randompolygamy> thanks th0r i was guessing /etc/firefox/ but that was incorrect :p
[08:28] <sriki> i ran it...
[08:28] <sriki> don't see any change
[08:28] <sriki> lsusb doesn't list the EVDO modem
[08:29] <th0r> sriki that command wasn't for you...you need to pay attention to what is going on here.
[08:29] <sriki> oops
[08:29] <sriki> sorry :)
[08:30] <Randompolygamy> Well flash is broken but yet we cant msg ubotu cuz he isnt here :P
[08:30] <th0r> Randompolygamy ubotu is a bot
[08:30] <Randompolygamy> th0r:  i know ;)
[08:31] <hataricus> pfffff
[08:31] <Randompolygamy> th0r:  read the topic :P it says to msg the bot but the bot isnt on the server
[08:31] <hataricus> does anyone use a tvtuner with his/her computer ?
[08:31] <jotham> hi, i'm trying to burn the ubuntu 7.10 iso from 7.04, it wont burn, keeps telling me to 'maybe try lower the speed' (its as low as it can go...) the drive burns other cd data just fine
[08:32] <Johnny_5> Randompolygamy: is this a new install of gutsy?
[08:32] <hataricus> latest
[08:32] <th0r> jotham have you checked the md5 checksum for the iso?
[08:32] <dgjones> you could try messaging ubotwo which is the replacement if its working
[08:32] <Randompolygamy> Jtom: did you check the md5sum of the image?
[08:32] <jotham> will do
[08:32] <Randompolygamy> lol
[08:32] <Randompolygamy> th0r:  u beat me to it
[08:32] <Randompolygamy> fresh install as of yesterday, compeltly updated
[08:32] <th0r> Randompolygamy and I typed more letter!
[08:33] <Randompolygamy> im eating a bowl of cereal!!!!!!! try doing ti one handed haha you wana have a one handed typing race .... lawl disreguard that its 333
[08:35] <Randompolygamy> Johnny_5: it was a frsh install as of like 2 days ago, from there ive installed/updated compiz, pidgin, xchat, and installed all the updates. more or less yes fresh install
[08:36] <crabgrass> alright guys, error 15 problem with grub. i installed a new kernel, i think, though update-manager, but now when i boot, all my choices in grub lead to 'error 15: could not find file, yadda yadda yadda'. how do i reset grub?
[08:37] <th0r> crabgrass what file is it looking for?
[08:37] <dgjones> !grub | crabgrass
[08:37] <Ubotwo> crabgrass: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[08:37] <crabgrass> th0r: didn't write it down, it's the path to the kernel
[08:37] <jotham> hi, teh md5 of the iso is fine
[08:37] <Flannel> crabgrass: does booting to the old kernel work any better? (it shouldnt)
[08:38] <crabgrass> Flannel: either that option isnt there, or it doesnt
[08:38] <hataricus> one last time: does anyone use a tvtuner ?
[08:38] <Randompolygamy> hataricus: what kinda tuner u got?
[08:39] <hataricus> winfast leadtek tv 2000 xp expert
[08:39] <Flannel> crabgrass: alright.  Well, by hitting 'e' you can edit the GRUB entries while in the GRUB menu, if you want to try fiddling with anything.  Whatever you change isn't permanent either.  If you were on a liveCD, and could pastebin the menu.lst, that'd be helpful in troubleshooting
[08:39] <Randompolygamy> go to their forums
[08:39] <hataricus> did that
[08:39] <dgjones> hataricus, i have one installed, I set it up using the app tvtime which seems to work ok
[08:39] <Randompolygamy> post the hell out of them
[08:39] <hataricus> they do no support linux
[08:39] <crabgrass> Flannel: i am indeed on a livecd, will do.
[08:39] <Randompolygamy> pfff, samfoolery
[08:39] <hataricus> dgjones when i try running tvtime i get an error with yuy2 overlay not supported
[08:40] <Randompolygamy> dgjones: hataricus is having issues with tvtime
[08:40] <hataricus> thnx; )
[08:40] <draconpern> when I remove a package that has dependencies, are those removed also?
[08:40] <th0r> draconpern not usually
[08:40] <draconpern> anyway to do so?
[08:41] <Flannel> crabgrass: Make sure youre posting the one you've mounted (thats on the HD) and not the one in the filesystem
[08:41] <th0r> draconpern you can remove unneeded dependencies with sudo apt-get autoremove
[08:41] <yaba> ?
[08:41] <hataricus> dgjones are you still there ?
[08:41] <draconpern> th0r: Thanks!
[08:41] <dgjones> hataricus, not sure what to suggest, mine was an old card that "just worked" so i've not had to do any messing around with it, you might be better asking in a couple of hours to see if there's anybody else around that can help
[08:41] <crabgrass> Flannel: i'm posting the one in /boot on the partition i boot from. is that correct?
[08:41] <crabgrass> Flannel: http://pastebin.com/d25acc1e3
[08:41] <hataricus> mine is an old car too, about 3 years now
[08:42] <yaba> somebody here?
[08:42] <dgjones> hataricus, thats new compared to mine :)
[08:42] <hataricus> thank you than :)
[08:42] <Flannel> crabgrass: right.  You'll browse to your harddrive, then boot inside of that
[08:42] <Randompolygamy> hataricus:  a couple of hours is a while its 342 eastern time, come back in like 12 hours 13
[08:42] <hataricus> lol itsh 10:42 in the morning here:)
[08:42] <crabgrass> Flannel: yeah. i had to mount this partition to read the file.
[08:42] <Johnny_5> Randompolygamy: what i would do then is go to a flash site and click on where it tells you to download flash_player. it'll send u to a download page. choose the debian/ubuntu install (.tar.gz).after its done downloading use your file browser and go to the dir where u had it downloaded (i think the default is desktop in which case it'll just show up on your gnome desktop if that's what you're using). right click the .tar.gz file a
[08:42] <Johnny_5> nd tell it to extract it. then go into the dir that's formed in the command line and type ./flashplayer-installer to run the installer. then just close down firefox and open it back up. that should fix it
[08:42] <Randompolygamy> yeah, come back at 11 pm there then
[08:43] <hataricus> so im guessing you do not see daylight if you look outside your windows :P ?
[08:43] <hataricus> i just woke up :))
[08:43] <dgjones> hataricus, i suppose you could ask in the mythtv channel to see if there are any known problems with the card running with mythtv, they might have a suggestion
[08:43] <Flannel> crabgrass: this looks normal.  You have two harddrives, and linux is on the second?
[08:44] <hataricus> thnx will try joing them :)
[08:44] <dgjones> its 8:43 for me and still dark outside, i hate these winter mornings
[08:44] <crabgrass> flannel: i have two disks, but my main has three partitions.
[08:44] <Johnny_5> its 10:44 here in HI
[08:44] <Flannel> crabgrass: and linux is on which partition, of which drive?
[08:44] <Johnny_5> i think i may go to bed soon
[08:44] <Randompolygamy> Johnny_5: thats all fun and nice, ( i know how to install flash) but it says in the topic that the flash installer is broken ?  ^_^  so thats why i was woundering why it was saying msg the bot ubotu but .. he isnt here so i guess we will never know. but Johnny_5 is the flash plugin working or not?

[09:05] <ikonia> white_eagle: ubotwo doesn't appear to have the same factoid database, I wouldn't expect them to be all working
[09:05] <ikonia> white_eagle: it's timed out
[09:06] <dgjones> ikonia, i tried the web interface for ubotu before, thats dead as well
[09:06] <ikonia> dgjones: yes, ubotu appears to have died, people are aware of it
[09:06] <Sionide> ikonia, is there a fix at all?
[09:06] <akorn> does anybody know why when i have compiz running, i can't MOVE windows that are open? this started fairly randomly after i typed in "compizconfig" in the terminal...also i can't load up compiz config anymore :S
[09:07] <Sionide> or some kind of work around?
[09:07] <ikonia> Sionide: you can manually install the plugin from adobe, but be aware of issues with konqueror and opera, and your manual install may have issues once an official ubuntu fix is released.
[09:07] <Flannel> Sionide:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 is a fix, if you really can't wait  (which you should)
[09:08] <Sionide> alrighty, thanks guys
[09:09] <Gpalco> mactimes, I did like you said and it started to work. even after changing it back and forth
[09:10] <dgjones> Sionide, I knew there was a reason for logs, Here's Ubotu's !flash factiod
	comodo: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
	The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix.
[09:11] <linduxed> how do i clear the list of visited or "tried to connect to" servers under the Places menu?
[09:11] <Sionide> also i have another query, it's a dualboot system and the windows recovery partition has mounted on the ubuntu desktop.. is there any way to get rid of it?
[09:12] <jengle_> how do i allow for a program in /usr/bin to be run as a normal user rather than having to use sudo?
[09:12] <dgjones> Sionide, the mount points will be in /media/mountpoint, if you change the mountpoint to /mnt/mountpoint that should remove them from the desktop (mountpoint is the name of your mountpoint)
[09:12] <Sionide> dgjones, ah ha, thanks a lot
[09:14] <Gpalco> mactimes, thank you
[09:14] <dgjones> Sionide, you could run gconf-editor in a terminal and change a setting under apps->nautilus->Desktop called volumes visible and uncheck the box, but that wouldn't put usb keys or other external drives etc on the desktop when you plug them in
[09:15] <Sionide> ah yup yup
[09:15] <Sionide> would prefer to have usb keys come up though
[09:16] <gerhard> good monring
[09:17] <dgjones> Sionide, seems easier, its a change i need to get round to making on my machine as well
[09:17] <Gpalco> Someone help. I edited the OpenOffice splash screen with Gimp. Like that (when in Gimp). But it is kust black when OpenOffice starts! Can it be 'cause I edited it as ROOT ???
[09:18] <yokobr> hi, everybody
[09:18] <redd0t> hello
[09:18] <yokobr> please, i cant make to install my webcam. If i do lusb, says Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0ac8:301b Z-Star Microelectronics Corp. ZC0301 WebCam
[09:20] <gerro> hello
[09:21] <gerro> Gpalco: nah you probably saved it as wrong format
[09:21] <gerro> yokobr: nice cam
[09:23] <Gpalco> Someone, please suggest a nice terminal, may be something like Guake (appeared to be uninstallable)
[09:24] <gerro> Gpalco: I use xfce4-terminal
[09:25] <pretender> when playing videos on youtube there slugish.  i'n running 7.10 any ideas
[09:25] <the_padawan> hi all, i am copying over a folder from one computer to another using scp -r. using du -h, i know that the size of the source folder is 16G. However, the destination folder has grown (from zero) to 27G and files are still being transferred. What is going on??
[09:25] <gerro> yokobr: from what I read your webcam has its own driver or can use gspca. Sounds rather convenient, try checking lsmod| grep "gspca" and also search for zc0301 and videodev
[09:25] <El_toni> Gpalco, guako is installabel
[09:25] <yokobr> please, anyone knows how can i install it? Ive tryied easycam
[09:25] <gerro> yokobr: videodev I think is related to video streaming devices
[09:26] <El_toni> yokobr,  which cam?
[09:26] <yokobr> zc0301
[09:26] <gerro> yokobr: is it the p version?
[09:26] <yokobr> p version?
[09:27] <gerro> yokobr: I don't know someone mentioned it on a mailing list
[09:27] <yokobr> i dont know. Well, that lsmod| grep "gspca" gave me nothing.
[09:28] <pretender> youtube videos are choppy runing 7.10 how can i fix this
[09:28] <the_padawan> hi all, i am copying over a folder from one computer to another using scp -r. using du -h, i know that the size of the source folder is 16G. However, the destination folder has grown (from zero) to 27G and files are still being transferred. What is going on??
[09:29] <gerro> yokobr: try replacing gspca with videodev then try zc0301
[09:29] <yokobr> what is videodev? any program that i install with apt-get?
[09:30] <gerro> the_padawan: I'm guessing its coping to some temporary folder or such? perhaps you messed up on which directory to copy or there is a big file there
[09:30] <yokobr> sorry, i didnt got it.
[09:30] <akorn> Does anybody know any answers as to why i cannot move my windows while i have compiz running??
[09:30] <gerro> yokobr: lsmod |grep "videodev"
[09:30] <gerro> yokobr: from what I read I think its some xorg option
[09:31] <ObeyRoy> !wow
[09:31] <Ubotwo> Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php
[09:31] <gerro> akorn: because compiz relies on emerald for window management
[09:31] <gerro> akorn: try alt + click to move them until you setup emeraldd
[09:31] <akorn> well i HAD emerald installed and it still didnt allow me to move the wwindows
[09:31] <akorn> i JUST uninstalled emerald and compiz, reinstalled compiz....
[09:32] <Leechzilla> Which is better, OSS or ALSA, and why?
[09:32] <akorn> and alt + click definitely doesn't work
[09:32] <nandu> Hi Guyes I want some help
[09:32] <yokobr> http://pastebin.com/m6779f1a0
[09:32] <akorn> gerro it won't let me install emerald, says i'm missing repos...what repos do i have to add? i don't remmeber ever adding any...
[09:32] <gerro> akorn: alt + click always works, something's seriously broke if it doesn't. Is your machine completely locked up?
[09:32] <nandu> I swa this lines in my log files
[09:33] <nandu> Jan 10 12:16:00 localhost kernel: [   23.765022] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:05.0[A] -> Link [LKLN] -> GSI 20 (level, low) -> IRQ 18

[09:33] <nandu> What this lines stands for
[09:33] <akorn> gerro everything works perfectly except for being able to move windows...however, if i disable compiz i CAN move windows (with alt click or by dragging them with the top bar)
[09:33] <gerro> akorn: try checking /etc/apt/sources.list and uncomment the repository where emerald would be
[09:33] <yokobr> gerro, http://pastebin.com/m6779f1a0
[09:33] <iNtERrUpT> who calls me
[09:33] <gerro> yokobr: thx
[09:33] <iNtERrUpT> oh =_=..
[09:33] <ObeyRoy> Hey, does anyone know what this JAck Audio Server is?
[09:34] <akorn> gerro everything works perfectly except for being able to move windows...however, if i disable compiz i CAN move windows (with alt click or by dragging them with the top bar)
[09:34] <nandu> any bocy know how this error resolve. "forcedeth.c"
[09:34] <gerro> ObeyRoy: think it does something with headphones its like a different mixer service usually required for wine
[09:34] <white_eagle> how to make the (GNOME Display Manager) to be the default?
[09:34] <white_eagle> I changed it accidently
[09:34] <ikonia> nandu thats not an error, thats statement
[09:34] <white_eagle> and I don't know where can I change it
[09:35] <gerro> yokobr: what application are you using to test if your webcam is working?
[09:35] <yokobr> nandu, forcedeth is a nforce driver, right?
[09:35] <ubuser> hi all
[09:35] <ricky_> hey everybody
[09:35] <yokobr> camorama
[09:35] <yokobr> gerro, camorama
[09:35] <yokobr> gerro, ive tryied XawTV, but dont open.
[09:35] <gerro> akorn: perhaps your missing something in xorg?
[09:36] <nandu> But In this server 2 NIC cards & i not got the internet form this server, if restart this server I got the internet. How I solve this?
[09:36] <akorn> it could be, but this happened randomly when i typed in "compizconfig" in the terminal yesterday, and i dindt do anything to xorg
[09:36] <ubuser> who can tell me if exists a program which reminds me event? 4example I put in the program a day and an hour and it says me what i gotta remind
[09:36] <white_eagle> how to make the (GNOME Display Manager) to be the default? I changed it accidently
[09:37] <white_eagle> and I don't where can I change it
[09:37] <ricky_> white eagle before you log in
[09:37] <akorn> gerro i'll try completely removing all compiz crap and reinstalling it completely
[09:37] <gerro> yokobr: umm try this rmmod zc0301 then modprobe gspca and that should switch drivers perhaps get it working
[09:37] <ricky_> there should be some place called session
[09:37] <akorn> gerro do you konw what repo emerald themes are downloaded from and all their dependencies? b/c it won't let me download
[09:37] <ObeyRoy> ugh
[09:37] <white_eagle> ricky_ no not that
[09:37] <Symmetria> hrm, question, in solaris you can do a loopback mount which allows you to mount a directory point on a seperate directory (so you can have the same directory on /blah and /mnt at the same time without doing linking, it allows you to do it across file systems etc), is there equivelant functionality in ubuntu and if so how do I use it
[09:37] <ricky_> and u just go to that and click gnome and when u log in it will ask if you want to make it default
[09:37] <ObeyRoy> programs keep crashing
[09:38] <Symmetria> (in solaris its called lofs)
[09:38] <gerro> akorn: try gnome-looks site its pretty good
[09:38] <white_eagle> I want to change the login screen to be gnome default
[09:38] <ObeyRoy> this is frustrating
[09:38] <white_eagle> it is controled by some KDE app
[09:38] <yokobr> gerro, FATAL: Module gspca not found.
[09:38] <ricky_> OOooo sorry
[09:38] <gerro> symmetria: yes there is however I use gmount-iso because I'm a newb
[09:38] <akorn> gerro okay thanks
[09:38] <nandu> yokober: what can I do for this problem.
[09:39] <gerro> yokobr: can you find that module in the repository and install it?
[09:39] <white_eagle> ricky_, understand me? I need to change the login screen
[09:39] <nandu> in ubuntu where is the ifcfg-eth0
[09:39] <white_eagle> not the Desktop Enviroment
[09:39] <ricky_> yeah i'm not sure how to do it though sorry
[09:39] <nandu> can you told me the path of ifcfg-eth0
[09:39] <yokobr> gerro, like sudo apt-get install gspca?
[09:40] <gerro> nandu: you mean ifconfig? think its in /usr/bin
[09:40] <Symmetria> gerro any idea how to do it, this isnt an iso that I wanna mount btw :) its a directory
[09:40] <_mug> morning
[09:40] <gerro> yokobr: I think so, sort of tweaking my window manager and can't find synaptic right now to check
[09:40] <nandu> where I change the interface ip & some setting in ehich file
[09:40] <gerro> symmetria: think directory/iso/any file its all the same
[09:41] <gerro> nandu: try /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/resolv.conf
[09:41] <VSpike> white_eagle: I think you can do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm"
[09:41] <gerro> white_eagle: install gdm to have the gnome login screen
[09:42] <nandu> no this is not present /etc/network/interfaces
[09:42] <VSpike> white_eagle: I'm assuming you have gdm installed already, or have ubuntu-desktop installed?
[09:42] <gerro> ObeyRoy: what programs you working with?
[09:42] <ObeyRoy> RoseGarden
[09:42] <ObeyRoy> Kopete occasionally
[09:43] <Symmetria> aha mount -o bind <3
[09:43] <white_eagle> vspike ubuntu-desktop
[09:43] <gerro> ObeyRoy: just you said you were having crash troubles
[09:43] <white_eagle> how to change the ubuntu logo in the top left?
[09:43] <gerro> Symmetria: you'll forget it by the morning most likely :P
[09:43] <ObeyRoy> gerro: Yeah, those are the programs that crash
[09:44] <Symmetria> gerro heh nah, writing fstab files now :)
[09:44] <VSpike> white_eagle: then I think the dpkg-reconfigure will allow you to choose the display manager
[09:44] <yokobr> gerro, nope.
[09:44] <gerro> white_eagle: there is this thing under settings called "login window" it should have a section all about gdm
[09:44] <redd0t> can somebody recommeng a good text editor that supports code folding, highlighting and code completion
[09:45] <white_eagle> ah Vspike thanks!
[09:45] <white_eagle> sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm workde
[09:45] <gerro> redd0t: scite is pretty nice
[09:45] <white_eagle> worked*
[09:45] <VSpike> white_eagle: cool :)
[09:45] <redd0t> gerro: okay
[09:45] <ObeyRoy> This is really frustrating, I'm trying to get ubuntu up to where it's better than windows
[09:45] <white_eagle> how to change the ubuntu logo in the top left?
[09:45] <ObeyRoy> but right now, it's not able to do what i was doing with windows
[09:45] <mikebeecham> can someone tell me how I can update my nvidia drivers...I am using the restricted drivers that come with the installation
[09:46] <white_eagle> I need to change the picture of the logo
[09:46] <redd0t> also, is there a way to set the gnome terminal to a specified size so i don't have to change it everytime i reopen a term window
[09:46] <gerro> ObeyRoy: kinda asked you what was crashing but you haven't spoken
[09:46] <VSpike> white_eagle: not sure, but you could try looking at http://www.gnome-look.org/
[09:46] <white_eagle> bye
[09:46] <ObeyRoy> gerro: Rosegarden and Kopete keep crashing
[09:46] <ObeyRoy> Kopete less now that I'm not messing with preferences
[09:47] <redd0t> gerro: how do i set up code completion in scite
[09:47] <gerro> ObeyRoy: hmm I use kopete frequently without crashes which preferences were causing trouble? just now heard of Rosegarden but looks like a friend of mine might like it
[09:48] <yokobr> gerro, any idea about how can i install that module?
[09:48] <mikebeecham> can someone tell me how I can update my nvidia drivers...I am using the restricted drivers that come with the installation
[09:48] <gerro> mikebeecham: use the nvidia-glx-new in the repository
[09:48] <redd0t> gerro: nevermind
[09:48] <gerro> redd0t: found it?
[09:48] <ObeyRoy> gerro: when i was editing my IRC connection
[09:49] <root___> hi
[09:49] <VSpike> gerro: I always wondered that.  so nvidia-glx-new is the bleeding edge version and nvidia-glx is the stable version?
[09:49] <redd0t> gerro: yeah. that is weird. i was expecting it to be like automatic code completion. but the shortcut is actually probly nicer
[09:49] <gerro> ObeyRoy: oh I've never used irc with it before usually use pidgin for that. I mainly use kopete for the audio/webcam features
[09:50] <mikebeecham> gerro....what is that
[09:50] <gerro> VSpike: the nvidia-glx one is the works for most one and the -new one is for later models that are a bit different
[09:50] <ObeyRoy> gerro: well, it hasn't crashed yet today. Mostly Rosegarden is the problem now.
[09:50] <_mug> does any1 know where i can change, how many torrents are downloaded simultaneously in azureus? it seems to be limited to 2 after install, and i cant find where to change that..
[09:50] <gerro> VSpike: you might have better performance with the nvidia-glx one though
[09:50] <mikebeecham> gerro...how can I tell whether my card is supported on glx-new?
[09:51] <gerro> mikebeecham: doesn't it list that in synaptic?
[09:51] <VSpike> gerro: I'm just using what the restricted manager chose for me, and I have nvidia-glx-new installed
[09:52] <mikebeecham> gerro: not sure
[09:52] <gerro> Vspike: is it working and all?
[09:53] <mikebeecham> gerro....the glx-new is already installed
[09:53] <gerro> mikebeecham: and its not working?
[09:53] <VSpike> gerro: sure is
[09:53] <mikebeecham> gerro: the game did not, even though i thought it was supported in wine
[09:54] <giuseppe> hi guys, I've a problem with gparted. I boot it from cd but when it starts to load kernel it stop to recognise my keyboard. I've tried with another keyboard and also with the other boot options but nothing. I haven't got an usb keyboard. How can I solve? Thanks
[09:54] <VSpike> gerro: just always wondered what the difference was
[09:54] <gerro> mikebeecham: wine has nothing to do if your system is working or not, native programs can tell wine outputs windows errors not linux ones
[09:55] <VSpike> ObeyRoy: suggest you read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs and install rosegarden-dbgsym package.  Then try and submit some bug reports
[09:55] <gerro> mikebeecham: try doing glxinfo | grep "direct" to see if you have direct rendering going or not
[09:55] <VSpike> ObeyRoy: It's something you can do to help the developers improve the software that you value
[09:55] <ObeyRoy> VSpike okay, thanks
[09:55] <mikebeecham> gerro
[09:55] <mikebeecham> yes
[09:55] <yokobr> hey guys, anyone could help me to install my cam? i know that the actual module running is zc0301, my cam model, but it didnt worded.
[09:56] <yokobr> worked*
[09:56] <gerro> mikebeecham: have you rebooted since it installed the nvidia drivers? that sometimes slips my mind to do
[09:56] <VSpike> ObeyRoy: sorry it's not a fix for you but it will be appreciated by the devs hopefuily :)
[09:56] <ObeyRoy> Also
[09:56] <acuster> Hey all,
[09:57] <acuster> where does one set the default page size used for printing/pdf output?
[09:57] <ObeyRoy> I am having a bit of an issue telling this program to open something with wine when it is downloaded
[09:57] <ObeyRoy> it has a list of programs, but wine is not on there
[09:57] <gerro> ObeyRoy: usually its best even if on windows to download the program then open it
[09:57] <mikebeecham> gerro...oh, I've rebooted many times since
[09:58] <gerro> ObeyRoy: sometimes leads to problems otherwise
[09:58] <ObeyRoy> gerro: I don't have that option here
[09:58] <bidossessi> hi folks: i've got a box that i want to turn into a mythbuntu box but it doesn't have internet connection. i need to know what packages i have to download to ease dhcp and nfs server administration so i can install it offline at home
[09:58] <ObeyRoy> I'm trying to install wow
[09:58] <gerro> ObeyRoy: then choose open with and do custom command and put wine
[09:59] <ObeyRoy> hehe
[09:59] <ObeyRoy> that was an easy fix
[09:59] <ObeyRoy> And, if you don't mind me asking, which media player do you use for music? there ar e a lot out there
[10:00] <gerro> ObeyRoy: totem however mplayer is awesome if you can manage to set it up properly
[10:00] <ObeyRoy> how's that?
[10:00] <gerro> ObeyRoy: if you want just audio and something really lite to run in the background some use xmms, its very themeable too
[10:01] <giuseppe> hi guys, I've a problem with gparted. I boot it from cd but when it starts to load kernel it stop to recognise my keyboard. I've tried with another keyboard and also with the other boot options but nothing. I haven't got an usb keyboard. How can I solve? Thanks
[10:02] <VSpike> ObeyRoy: I favour amarok, but it is a kde app so will use a bit more resources as it loads kde libs.  On a modern PC, you wont notice.  It's awesome if you have a big collection you need to tame
[10:02] <DVS01> i like rhythmbox
[10:02] <gerro> Vspike: you ever tried banshee? my sister likes that one
[10:03] <DVS01> my gf uses audacious
[10:03] <mikebeecham> gerro: the only issue with banshee is that you need to make a playlist for every album you have
[10:03] <mikebeecham> or find it in a huge list
[10:03] <gerro> DVS01: yeah my cousin got a kick out of doing recordings with audacious
[10:03] <bidossessi> banshee's not great for media management
[10:03] <mikebeecham> indeed
[10:03] <DVS01> gerro i think youre talkig about audacity
[10:03] <bidossessi> i hear exaile's nice tho
[10:03] <gerro> DVS01: oh darn your right
[10:04] <VSpike> gerro: I've always stuck with amarok.  I tried xmms but didn't like it.  in the past I've always hated the "media library" organisers that players had and just used the file system to organise.  Amarok is the first app I've used where I actually like its organisational side
[10:04] <mikebeecham> VSpike: try rhythmbox
[10:04] <XBehave> can fs errors cause a complete system freeze if theyre not on root?
[10:04] <gerro> bidossessi: when I tried exaile I had trouble with it staying running in background through this python process
[10:04] <VSpike> mikebeecham: is that the itunes-alike think that pops up when i plug my media player in?
[10:04] <mikebeecham> it's less cumbersome than amarok, and does what it does very well
[10:04] <XBehave> how can i get my fs checked on next book?
[10:05] <mikebeecham> VSpike: not sure what it does on your machine...it will pop up if you have that media player set as default I would imagine
[10:06] <bidossessi> gtk-wise, i'd say rhythmbox holds the top of the charts for me right now, but then, i use gmpc so...
[10:06] <XBehave> is it possible to update ext2 to ext3 easily? and does it reduce the effectivness of having an encrypted fs?
[10:06] <zionpsyfer> XBehave: All bets are off with weird FS errors.  Let me check on the easiest way for you to check your disk.  Normally you can just boot into single user mode and check it
[10:07] <Symmetria> anyone know if a mount -o bind /directory1 /directory2 is going to put any additional load on the system when you start doing heavy reads off the loopback mount?
[10:07] <VSpike> mikebeecham: I'll give it a try.  It's a lot more GNOMEish and I am trying to find GNOME alternatives to the few KDE apps I hang on to.  I always used KDE and I'm trying to give GNOME a fair try for a while :)
[10:08] <mikebeecham> VSpike: it should work well for you...I dont mind kde...but it's all a bit glossy for me really
[10:08] <VSpike> still havent ditched digikam or k3b though
[10:08] <mosno> VSpike: some KDE apps are best-of-breed
[10:08] <mosno> imho
[10:08] <bidossessi> VSpike, fspot really rocks, tho
[10:08] <mosno> VSpike: but do let us know if you find someting better than K3B
[10:08] <gerro> xBehave: yes its very easy to update ext2 to ext3 but you can't go back you use the mkefs.ext3 command I think
[10:09] <bidossessi> only kde app i can't replace is quanta
[10:09] <bidossessi> mosno, anything is better than k3b
[10:09] <zionpsyfer> XBehave:  looks like that's the easiest way.  Reboot, press escape and do Recovery.  At the shell, run 'fsck /dev/hdx'  make sure you know which partition and drive it is and substitute it.
[10:10] <gerro> Symmetria: if it purrs too loud just kick it and should work ;)
[10:10] <VSpike> the thing that bugs me about fspot is the way it wants to move all your photos.  and the way that when you import them, you have all your photos (in my case about 6000) in a single level view
[10:10] <anditosan> anybody around, i need help with this error "Cant init video driver xshm, trying auto"
[10:10] <anditosan> please
[10:10] <zionpsyfer> And no, later versions of ext3 only store metadata.  so your stuff is still safe
[10:10] <anditosan> this is in kaffeine
[10:10] <VSpike> I've probably not given a fair chance yet though - was just put off by that
[10:11] <zionpsyfer> iirc
[10:11] <mosno> VSpike: the thing that shits me about certain GTK+/Gnome apps is all-style, no-substance
[10:11] <mosno> ymmv
[10:11] <XBehave> well ive checked my /home/user and fixed errors i just didnt think it would crash system, ill update it to ext3 next time i need to mount it thx zionpsyfer gerro
[10:11] <dogson> fspot really sucks

[10:11] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system - Consider "ebox" instead

[10:11] <opus> hi, is there a firewall integrated into ubuntu?
[10:11] <mosno> ikonia: ok, sorry kids
[10:11] <zionpsyfer> XBehave: np, hopefully it works out.  good luck

[10:11] <XBehave> yeah i figured id play it safe but i ran fsk disk and it takes forever on ext2 so ill just use ext3
[10:11] <gerro> mosno: gnome apps != gtk anything apps
[10:12] <opus> ikonia: is gui available for it?
[10:12] <mosno> gerro: eh?

[10:12] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).

[10:13] <XBehave> o ok sorry was trying to help opus but yeah basically what the bots said just read that

[10:14] <mosno> gerro: tell me something i dont know
[10:14] <Balachmar> Hi, what package do I need to install to install KDE next to GNOME on ubuntu?
[10:14] <mosno> gerro: MOST GTK+ apps do not fully utilise the Gnome Platform
[10:15] <gerro> mosno: what gnome platform? all they do is kill off features in the gui
[10:15] <mosno> gerro: HAL/D-BUS/GTK+/Cairo/Corba/ATK/Pango/etc/etc
[10:15] <XBehave> Balachmar: KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop », or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE) . Latest KDE version is 3.5.8 for Gutsy and Feisty, 3.5.6 for Edgy, and 3.5.5 for Dapper. See http://kubuntu.org) for more information.
[10:16] <mosno> gerro: Gnome PLATFORM rocks, it's Gnome Desktop that you don't like
[10:16] <gerro> mosno: I thought it was the window manager I didn't like..
[10:16] <bullgard4> Balachmar: Start with 'kde'.
[10:16] <mosno> gerro: well, that's a part of the desktop.
[10:17] <gerro> mosno: I'll just stick to the lite stuff where everything is all modular and not coupled up like a ball of poo
[10:17] <mosno> gerro: hahahaha ok
[10:17] <mosno> gerro: what's your desktop setup then?
[10:18] <ikonia> mosno: gerro take it to #ubuntu-offtopic perhaps ?
[10:18] <gerro> mosno: xfce/fluxbox working on a hybrid though also xfce tends to eat fluxbox
[10:18] <ikonia> mosno: gerro looks like a good dicussion to have
[10:19] <gerro> ikonia: so did the media player one a few minutes ago :)
[10:19] <ikonia> gerro: I missed it

[10:23] <zax1> my friends are telling me that ubuntu and linux are so much worse then windows. is it true that windows is so much better
[10:23] <ikonia> zax1 thats personal opinion and not really a good discussion for this channel
[10:23] <zionpsyfer> that's a subjective question if I've ever heard one.
[10:24] <zax1> fair enough

[10:26] <khelll> do u recommend any good book or reference for linux ?
[10:27] <VSpike> zionpsyfer: that's what I wondered, except it's a gnome desktop.  I thought superkaramba was KDE only?
[10:27] <Buyydee> ikonia: What's the command to start Nautilus in the gksudo window?
[10:27] <ikonia> the command is nautilus
[10:28] <Buyydee> ikonia: I typed it with capital N... my mistake.

[10:28] <zetheroo> why does my card reader not work?
[10:29] <zionpsyfer> VSpike: yea, but they could be running it anyway.  Those are the only two I know of.  I'd like to know now too. ;)  That sidebar.... I could almost replace vista on my brothers comp without him knowing.
[10:30] <zetheroo> anyone?
[10:30] <Csaba> i have a few noob question in regards to installing, as i use snyaptic, if i add repos what is the purpose of keys? and what is deb-src is that the debian source?
[10:31] <VSpike> zionpsyfer: I've always been dubious about the value of those things anyway.  They look really nice, but everytime I've installed anything like that I end up removing it a day later
[10:32] <zionpsyfer> zetheroo: There might not be a driver for it.  Does it pop up when you plug it in?  Do you notice anything happen?
[10:32] <VSpike> zionpsyfer: besides, I only see my desktop when I log in :)
[10:32] <zetheroo> zionpsyfer: nothing at all
[10:32] <zionpsyfer> VSpike: Same.  =P  gkrellm usually stays though.  Non intrusive and it works well
[10:32] <zionpsyfer> zetheroo: What is the make/model of the reader?
[10:33] <VSpike> zionpsyfer: gkrellm is pretty cool
[10:33] <zetheroo> zionpsyfer: how can I tell?
[10:33] <zetheroo> zionpsyfer: its built into the laptop
[10:33] <VSpike> Csaba: the keys allow the packages to be signed, and then allow you to check if they have been modified or tampered with
[10:34] <zionpsyfer> zetheroo:  Does it have any writing on it?
[10:34] <VSpike> Csaba: the deb-src provides the source packages.  Most of the time you won't need these.
[10:34] <zetheroo> zionpsyfer: the laptop?
[10:34] <zax1> can i find a usb adsl modem drivers for ubuntu ? its a dynamode c4w-adslusb i cant find it anywhere and from reading the help pages, think maybe ubuntu does not support a usb modem ?
[10:34] <zionpsyfer> zetheroo:  Ooooh, it's built in?  What laptop?

[10:35] <mueslix> morning... i just tried to install the latest alpha and i noticed something rather weird (but absolutely reproducable): i have two nvidia cards in my system. after running the installer for a few minutes, suddenly all monitors go blank (and tell me that there's no signal)
[10:35] <mueslix> it's not happening at some magic point during installing, but seems rather time-based
[10:36] <mueslix> anyone ever experienced something similar?
[10:36] <zionpsyfer> VSpike: screenlets looks like it's the app

[10:36] <Pie-rate> can anyone think of a novel way to get realtime data out of WoW without hooking a function and without using too much CPU? I want to display information on my G15 keyboard, but the UI language is sandboxed and if their anti-cheating program catches you hooking a function they'll ban you. I was thinking maybe get it from a strip of pixels in the corner of the window, 3 bytes per pixel, can do quite a bit with 30 bytes, and it'd be pretty
[10:36] <Nubae> Is anyone here knowledgable with dansguardian and squid?
[10:37] <Nubae> I am running a proxy with filter, and have a set of iptable rules that send users in the 'users' group to dansguardian, which works wonderfully, and a rule that send users through to 'staff' directly to the proxy, which gives a access denied message no matter what page is visited
[10:37] <bazhang> sounds questionalbe Pie-rate
[10:37] <XBehave> i need to turn my swap off, but i get the error "swapoff: /dev/sda4: Cannot allocate memory" any ideas?
[10:38] <XBehave> could i make a swap file on a second drive?
[10:38] <zionpsyfer> zetheroo: Try these instructions.  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1931380&posted=1#post1931380
[10:38] <Nubae> I dont understand why this happens since the dansguardian users have to go through the proxy after dans as well, but dont get any access denied
[10:39] <xoqa> i'm about to remove openoppice.org, which will remove kubuntu-desktop as well. however in a few days, hopefully, kubuntu will have a new version upgrade along with the release of kde4.0. i'm guessing i will have to reinstall kubuntu-desktop to do 'aptitude upgrade,' right? if this is the case, is there a way to keep openoffice.org from being installed? i'm assuming kubuntu will be coming with ooo since koffice2 isn't yet ready.
[10:39] <Csaba> what repos would i add to install for Kiba Dock and keep updated? SVN?
[10:39] <VSpike> zionpsyfer: interesting.. thanks
[10:39] <zetheroo> zionpsyfer: I forgot to say that the card I am having trouble with is an XD card
[10:40] <VSpike> xoqa: kubuntu-desktop is a virtual package. It gets removed because you are removing a part of it, but actually no other real packages get removed
[10:40] <zionpsyfer> VSpike: heh, thanks for letting me know about that.
[10:41] <VSpike> zionpsyfer: doesn't look like it's in the repos though
[10:41] <xoqa> VSpike: will i need it to upgrade to the latest kubuntu?
[10:41] <Gudril> hey
[10:41] <Gudril> i need help
[10:41] <xoqa> hi Gudril
[10:41] <xoqa> k shoot
[10:41] <VSpike> xoqa: I don't think so.  A distribution upgrade should upgrade what you have installed, basically
[10:42] <xoqa> VSpike: good point, thanks.
[10:42] <Gudril> i had install Ubuntu the first time to make it to a webhost server with apache and mysql
[10:42] <zetheroo> is there no compatibility for XD cards in Ubuntu?
[10:42] <Gudril> the install is end and now im log in in Ubunto... but there is no KDE or Gnome
[10:42] <VSpike> xoqa: there are some exceptions, like saying that some packages are obsolete and have to be removed, or some packages are replaced by other ones... but generally yeah it should be OK
[10:42] <xoqa> VSpike: i'm curious how i'm going to be upgrading to kde4.0 without kubuntu-desktop

[10:43] <xoqa> you are in a tty screen correct?

[10:44] <yaba_> ?
[10:44] <xoqa> zetheroo: your guess is as good as mine, i'd have to search the web for the answer
[10:44] <Gudril> xoqa i think so
[10:44] <Gudril> xody mom, i try

[10:47] <xoqa> Gudril: sudo aptitude install xorg
[10:47] <ikonia> Gudril: did you do a server install
[10:47] <Gudril> VSpike yes, i think i must do because i wont start a webserver on linux
[10:47] <xoqa> ikonia: yes he did
[10:47] <xoqa> ObeyRoy: #defocus
[10:47] <ikonia> Gudril: use the desktop version, there is no reason for you to use the server version
[10:47] <Gudril> ok now its a error if i type it
[10:47] <VSpike> ObeyRoy: #ubuntu-ot or whatever the off-topic channel is?
[10:48] <ikonia> ObeyRoy: #ubuntu-offtopic is the correct channel
[10:48] <VSpike> Gudril: if you want to get a desktop now, just do sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[10:48] <xoqa> Gudril: type 'startx'?
[10:48] <zetheroo> is there a repo for Screenlets
[10:48] <ikonia> Gudril: install the desktop cd - not the server one
[10:48] <xoqa> Gudril: probably because you don't have xorg installed
[10:48] <xoqa> Gudril: yeah, you might want to what ikonia said and install the apps you need afterwards
[10:48] <ikonia> Gudril: the desktop version will do all you want it to do and have better gui intergration

[10:49] <Gudril> ok, installing xorg

[10:49] <Varka> zetheroo, as save as a thirdparty repo could be
[10:49] <ikonia> Gudril: you'll find it better to install the desktop cd
[10:49] <ikonia> Gudril: I assure you it will make things easier in the long run
[10:50] <Gudril> ikonia i dont like the easy way =) i would learn and why not do it now? xD
[10:50] <zionpsyfer> zetheroo: Looks like some people have had luck
[10:50] <zionpsyfer> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636867
[10:50] <xoqa> Gudril: this is true, but if you don't have access to a cd, you'll need to install xorg
[10:50] <Gudril> oh
[10:50] <Gudril> xserver start!"
[10:50] <xoqa> Gudril: and the desktop environment of your choice
[10:50] <VSpike> ikonia: if he installs the ubuntu-desktop package won't that achieve the same thing?
[10:50] <zionpsyfer> different model of laptop though
[10:50] <Gudril> xorg is installt
[10:50] <ikonia> VSpike: no
[10:50] <VSpike> ikonia: interesting - why not?
[10:50] <xoqa> Gudril: what do you get when you type 'startx' now?
[10:51] <Gudril> it starts
[10:51] <ikonia> Gudril: well your not really learning - your just asking what to do. I strongly advise you to use the desktop CD as it is a better fit for your purpose
[10:51] <Gudril> a mystery display
[10:51] <ikonia> VSpike: 1.) the server install has different backend - eg: can't use restricted drivers 2.) the desktop is just that, the desktop not all the backend intergration
[10:51] <VSpike> ikonia: ah ok... thanks
[10:52] <xoqa> you have a VSpike, Gudril, you may just want to install 'ubuntu-desktop' if you are wanting a gnome deskto and 'kubuntu-desktop' if you want a kde desktop. if you are running a server, you may want 'xubuntu-desktop'
[10:52] <xoqa> you have a point*
[10:52] <Csaba> how can u add the key or generate one for  deb http://hendrik.kaju.pri.ee/ubuntu feisty screenlets
[10:52] <zetheroo> zionpsyfer: thanks... but again it seems that people are still having issues with XD cards
[10:52] <VSpike> ikonia: must admit, i always assumed that the server install was just a different default package selection
[10:53] <ikonia> VSpike: in some ways it is, in other less obvious ways, it's not
[10:53] <VSpike> ikonia: and it's subtle enough that dpkg can't fix it for you by pulling in dependancies?
[10:54] <xoqa> of course, Gudril, ideally what you have right now, no x.org is fine for a server
[10:54] <ikonia> VSpike: well not all the intergration are dependencies, some of them are handy things to have, not requirments
[10:54] <VSpike> ikonia: true
[10:54] <ikonia> VSpike: eg; you can have a desktop without say udev/hal/dbus intergration
[10:54] <ikonia> VSpike: but without that, nothing will auto mount
[10:54] <xoqa> grrs.. no sleep it should be "ideally, no x.org is fine for a server"
[10:54] <ikonia> VSpike: as an easy example
[10:55] <xoqa> and i'm off to learn some more programming
[10:55] <xoqa> later guys
[10:55] <xoqa> thanks again VSpike
[10:55] <ikonia> Gudril: I strongly advise you to install the ubuntu-desktop cd
[10:55] <VSpike> ikonia: yes, very good point
[10:56] <ikonia> VSpike: that's just an easy example to put the point across, there is more to it than that
[10:57] <Vaxen> how do i open ports on my ubuntu server? my vent server shows up on netstat -pant but my cs server dont, its running but with very high ping.
[10:57] <ikonia> Vaxen: there is no firewall enabled by default on ubuntu

[11:08] <dhq> ikonia: y
[11:08] <ikonia> gerro: ok
[11:08] <ikonia> dhq: it's a pretty core part of the system, swapping it has a good potentical to break everything
[11:08] <ikonia> dhq: binutils and other core versions are built around specific glibc versions, you swapping it could break everything
[11:09] <dhq> ikonia: well i am working with linux from scratch on my system
[11:09] <ikonia> dhq: so ?
[11:09] <dhq> well building it on my kubuntu\
[11:09] <dhq> ikonia: i want to compile it
[11:09] <senjin> hello I have a problem with my speakers they dosent sound but I get sound with earpluggs anyone have any idéa why I cant get sound in the speakers?
[11:09] <ikonia> dhq: then thats an LFS issue

[11:10] <Quicksilva> Hi. I am having some problems with full screen opengl and i get errors when i type  LIBGL_DEBUG=debug glxinfo.   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/51408/      Any idea what I can do to fix it:?
[11:10] <ikonia> dhq: this is an LFS issue
[11:15] <VSpike> zetheroo: I think you will have more luck if you do "sudo -i" and then "wget http://hendrik.kaju.pri.ee/ubuntu/hendrikkaju.gpg -O- | apt-key add -" and then "echo "deb http://hendrik.kaju.pri.ee/ubuntu/ gutsy screenlets" >> /etc/apt/sources.list" and then "apt-get update && apt-get install screenlets"
[11:16] <zetheroo> VSpike: Whoa... I am trying to follow along there
[11:16] <zionpsyfer__> lol
[11:16] <VSpike> zetheroo: what I'm saying is the sudo causes problems.  There's probably a way to get sudo working properly with pipes and redirects but it always causes bother for me
[11:17] <zetheroo> VSpike: so I shoudl go to root first
[11:17] <zetheroo> ?
[11:17] <zionpsyfer__> When it asks for the password while you're trying to pipe?
[11:17] <VSpike> zetheroo: it's just a version of the instructions here http://hendrik.kaju.pri.ee/ubuntu/ but using a root shell
[11:17] <VSpike> zionpsyfer__: yeah.  you can solve that by doing sudo echo first or something so it doesn't ask for a keywork
[11:18] <deostroll> I use an unsupported ubuntu version - 5.10 breezy badger. Trying to install gnash. Would need some help?
[11:18] <VSpike> zionpsyfer__: but the line about "echo "deb http://hendrik.kaju.pri.ee/ubuntu/ gutsy screenlets" >> /etc/apt/sources.list" doesn't work even if you do "sudo echo "deb http://hendrik.kaju.pri.ee/ubuntu/ gutsy screenlets" >> /etc/apt/sources.list"
[11:18] <d3xt3r> #ubuntu-it
[11:18] <senjin> Does anyone have any idéa of what to do whith my built in laptop speakers the dont sound but i get sound in earpluggs if i plugg them in i have checked the volyme settings and such so?
[11:18] <ikonia> gnash won't work on 5.10
[11:19] <d3xt3r> join #ubuntu-it
[11:19] <deostroll> ikonia: is this a proved fact?
[11:19] <d3xt3r> anyone can help me?? i wanna join the ubuntu-it channel
[11:19] <VSpike> zionpsyfer__: i asked in ##linux about that once and i was told i was told "man sudo" I think :)
[11:19] <d3xt3r> how can i do?
[11:19] <senjin>  typ / before join
[11:19] <zionpsyfer__> hehe
[11:19] <dgjones> !it | d3xt3r
[11:19] <ubotu> d3xt3r: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[11:20] <IndyGunFreak> d3xt3r: "/join #ubuntu-it" no quotes
[11:20] <ikonia> deostroll: yes
[11:20] <d3xt3r> !it
[11:20] <zionpsyfer__> VSpike: lol, yeah it doesn't like that line
[11:20] <deostroll> ikonia: ok will I be able to install adobe flash player instead?
[11:21] <d3xt3r> thanks indygunfreak
[11:21] <ikonia> deostroll: debatable, I think not
[11:21] <VSpike> zionpsyfer__: I think you can do sudo sh -c "echo blah >> foo" but the quoting could get hairy so sudo -i seems easier
[11:22] <zionpsyfer__> VSpike: Heh, I'm lazy.  sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:22] <zionpsyfer__> VSpike: You're right though, and those instructions for ubuntu should reflect that.
[11:22] <XBehave> can i resize an active physical volume, being used for lvm?
[11:23] <ikonia> XBehave: no
[11:23] <Shapeshifter> Where are the icons of most applications stored?
[11:23] <deostroll> ikonia: I got the gnash package...tried to configure it. It told me some packages were missing. One of them was libxml2-dev.
[11:23] <Shapeshifter> I'm looking for the kde logout/shutdown etc button icons in particular
[11:23] <void^> VSpike: echo blah | sudo tee -a somefile
[11:23] <ikonia> deostroll: I told you it won't work
[11:23] <deostroll> ikonia: ok.
[11:24] <VSpike> zetheroo: if you install screenlets, I also had to mkdir $HOME/.config/Screenlets or it would not work
[11:24] <zetheroo> VSpike: oh really
[11:24] <VSpike> void^: cool thanks - i figured there had to be something like that
[11:26] <zetheroo> VSpike: now that I installed it... where do I find it?
[11:27] <zetheroo> VSpike: I launched screenlets manager and I get this error messege: Unable to connect or launch daemon. Some values may be displayed incorrectly.
[11:27] <VSpike> zetheroo: System->Preferences
[11:27] <deostroll> This is an issue with winxp & ubuntu. I run winxp. No issues with sys time. I reboot and run ubuntu. No issues still. Now if I reboot and run xp. The time changes...how to stop this.
[11:28] <VSpike> zetheroo: yeah, that seems to be bogus.  If you try and start the daemon, it tells you its obsolete and to run the manager.
[11:28] <VSpike> zetheroo: when i ran the manager again, it worked
[11:29] <XBehave> where the lvm issues fixed since gutsy betas? it used to crash if lvm scanned kernel mounted partitions
[11:29] <VSpike> zetheroo: most of the included screenlets seem to be pretty useless.  I'm just trying to figure how to install a 3rd party one.  The instructions on the site say to unpack to $HOME/.Screenlets but that doesn't seem to work.  The manager has an install option, but that tells me it's not a valid screenlet archive.
[11:29] <g0rbeh> Good morning
[11:29] <zetheroo> VSpike: hmmm
[11:30] <zetheroo> VSpike: I can't even figure out how to see something on the Desktop
[11:30] <VSpike> zetheroo: it's not very polished, is it?
[11:30] <zetheroo> VSpike: well the screenshots look great
[11:30] <zetheroo> ha
[11:30] <albert_kam> Hi people :)
[11:31] <VSpike> zetheroo: start the manager from the terminal and see what output it gives you.  That's how i found out about the missing directory
[11:31] <zetheroo> VSpike:
[11:31] <zetheroo> ok
[11:31] <zetheroo> VSpike: whats the command?
[11:31] <deostroll> I have a system time issue between winxp & ubuntu. Can anyone help?
[11:31] <g0rbeh> I have my primary disk set up like this Primary partition:ntfs(vista) Secondary partition: ubuntu Grub installed in boot loader- Since ubuntu has replaced all of my desktop stuff apart from games i want to downgrade to XP, If delete vista partiton and reinstall what will happen to grub? will i have to reinstall it after xp install?
[11:32] <zetheroo> VSpike: I did screenlets-manager and it worked with no errors
[11:32] <Gudril> Hey i have installt ubuntu-desktop. How i can start it?
[11:32] <zetheroo> VSpike: but how do I get anything to show on the desktop?
[11:32] <darlord> hi,is it possible to a script to be ran through evolution mail?
[11:33] <zetheroo> VSpike: oh ... have a look at this when I try to enable an applet:
[11:33] <zetheroo> Clock
[11:33] <zetheroo> Launch Clock
[11:33] <zetheroo> Launching Screenlet from: /usr/local/share/screenlets/Clock/ClockScreenlet.py
[11:33] <zetheroo> Logging output goes to: $HOME/.config/Screenlets/ClockScreenlet.log
[11:33] <zetheroo> sh: cannot create /home/zeth/.config/Screenlets/ClockScreenlet.log: Directory nonexistent
[11:33] <VSpike> zetheroo: yeah, that's what i meant about having to create $HOME/.config/Screenlets
[11:34] <Gudril> Hey i have installt ubuntu-desktop. How i can start it?
[11:34] <VSpike> zetheroo: this FAQ is actually quite useful and also points to another repo http://www.screenlets.org/index.php/FAQ
[11:34] <g0rbeh> Gudril: turn on your pc? =s
[11:34] <mrpogi_> he's right
[11:34] <Starnestommy> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start?
[11:35] <VSpike> Gudril: yeah what Starnestommy said
[11:35] <ObeyRoy> okay, I was just minding my own business
[11:35] <ObeyRoy> and the my screen went black
[11:35] <Gudril> VSpike please?
[11:35] <ObeyRoy> I wasited, then pressed ctrl-alt-f7
[11:35] <g0rbeh> What will happen to grub if I reinstall windows (i want to kill vista and replace it with xp)
[11:35] <zetheroo> VSpike: ok I made the folder and its working now
[11:35] <ObeyRoy> and then i found myself at the login screen
[11:35] <ObeyRoy> I logged in, and my previous session was gone
[11:36] <Gudril> g0rbeh i mean which command line i type to start the installt gui?
[11:36] <g0rbeh> Gudril: It should start automaticaly if the install has gone without problems
[11:36] <Starnestommy> Gudril: try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[11:37] <ObeyRoy> Can anyone explain what happened?
[11:37] <XBehave> can an LVM partition be used for a swap thats used for hibernation?
[11:37] <cedric30>  I want to insert a code in vhdl  but it split my code when I use \lstinputlisting and when I use \mbox{\lstinputlisting{./LAB2/mio_fsm.vhd}} I loose a part of my code at the bottom of my page Someone have an idea to have a block text on 2 or three page ??
[11:37] <cedric30> Sorry in Latex :)
[11:38] <mrpogi_> does anybody know how to chat using the terminal?
[11:38] <cedric30> icqcenter
[11:38] <mrpogi_> is it possible?
[11:38] <cedric30> ?
[11:38] <g0rbeh> Gudril: you can try the above  (/etc/init.d/gdm start) or if thats not working and you need some more feedback try startx
[11:38] <ikonia> mrpogi_: as in irc
[11:38] <mrpogi_> well no
[11:38] <mrpogi_> haha
[11:38] <ikonia> Gudril: install the desktop cd - that is the tool you need
[11:38] <ikonia> mrpogi_: look at the talk daemon
[11:38] <darlord> hi,is it possible to a script to be ran through evolution mail?
[11:38] <mrpogi_> sorry my first time to use irc
[11:39] <Gudril> ikonia gnome is ready =)
[11:39] <mrpogi_> what's a talk daemon?
[11:39] <mrpogi_> what's a talk daemon?
[11:39] <ikonia> Gudril no - gnome desktop is ready, the gnome intergration and environment is not
[11:39] <g0rbeh> If i reinstall XP over my vista partition will grub get nuked? will i be able to just boot some install disk after windows install and reload grub?
[11:39] <ikonia> mrpogi_: I just told you to research it, the name sort of gies it away
[11:40] <ikonia> g0rbeh: if grub is on the boot sector of that drive - yes
[11:40] <Rodolfo> hi can anyone tell me how to start ubuntu up in text-mode?
[11:40] <NineTeen67Comet> Hi all .. I've got a friend asking me to load an old computer up for his daughter (Kindergarden) .. I told him Linux will run on it, but I'm not a fan of Xubuntu, and I think Ubuntu might be a little too much. Can I install just xfce4 w/out all the extra stuff it normally comes with?
[11:40] <Tidus> Rodolfo: is X refusing to run or giving corrupted display on start ?
[11:41] <ikonia> NineTeen67Comet: what extra stuff ?
[11:41] <ikonia> NineTeen67Comet: what is the spec of the machine
[11:41] <deostroll> I have an issue with system time between ubuntu & windows xp. Can anyone help.
[11:41] <NineTeen67Comet> Well, it seems like when I installed xubuntu-desktop it loaded a ton .. and xfce4 seems to put a lot of the same things on there..
[11:41] <ikonia> deostroll ir you 3splqin h3 iwwu3
[11:41] <Tidus> deostroll: linux usually wants the system time set to UTC, while windows requires the hardware clock be set to local
[11:41] <ikonia> deostroll: oops
[11:41] <Rodolfo> Tidus: I'm experiencing crashes very frequently, the system just freezes....
[11:41] <ikonia> deostroll: if ou ask a question
[11:42] <NineTeen67Comet> ikonia: it is a 450mhz, 256mb ram, 16mb pci video card and not a whole lot more ..
[11:42] <ikonia> NineTeen67Comet: that stuff is "needed" to install the xfce desktop environment
[11:42] <ikonia> NineTeen67Comet: well all that "stuff" is just disk space
[11:42] <Tidus> Rodolfo: as soon as it starts up, hit CTRL+ALT+F1, then type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[11:42] <ikonia> NineTeen67Comet: it won't effect it's performance
[11:42] <Rodolfo> Tidus: no matter what I'm doing. when running a game sometimes nothing happen though
[11:42] <Tidus> that'll put it in text mode
[11:42] <deostroll> Tidus: so no way to fix it.
[11:42] <deostroll> Tidus:?
[11:42] <zetheroo> VSpike: yeah... we really need more applets
[11:43] <Tidus> deostroll: there is a way to fix it, but i'm not entirely sure on how to make ubuntu see that the hardware clock is set to local
[11:43] <NineTeen67Comet> ikonia: I know, but it's just more I have to pull from the menu and the hd isn't much (not sure how much, but I would assume it is 10gig or less)
[11:43] <Tidus> any takers to answer that one?
[11:43] <ikonia> NineTeen67Comet all that stuff isn't much space, they could all be 1k
[11:43] <Tidus> NineTeen67Comet: i had xubuntu installed and running fine on a p2-233 laptop with 128mb ram and a 4G HD
[11:43] <zionpsyfer__> VSpike: Got the watermark to install.
[11:43] <Tidus> whole system took like 1.2G
[11:44] <deostroll> Tidus: Ok. No issues.
[11:44] <NineTeen67Comet> ikonia: I'll give'r a try anyhow .. Tidus .. I run a few servers with Ubuntu-server 8.04 Alpha2 and they are a couple of 256mb 450mhz boxes them self .. they seem to be happy ..
[11:44] <deostroll> How do you enable NUM LOCK while os loads?
[11:45] <ikonia> deostroll bios
[11:45] <Tidus> NineTeen67Comet: i got a kubuntu 7.04 machine serving as a fileserver / foot rest :P
[11:45] <Tidus> p3-450 dell with 128mb ram
[11:45] <deostroll> ikonia: I was hoping something to do with os configuration...
[11:45] <ikonia> deostroll: it's not
[11:46] <Slart> deostroll: isn't that some kind of bios setting?
[11:46] <Flynsarmy> Hi. I just added the unmetered package repository that my ISP hosts to my sources.list but now i think i have several versions of the same package lists. Could someone please take a look and tell me if i can comment out any of these lines: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/51427/
[11:46] <Rodolfo> Tidus: is there any command to show me some info related to xserver-xorg-conf? I need to figure out my current X version...
[11:46] <NineTeen67Comet> Tidus: Gotta love bringing back to old stuff .. People just keep giving me boxes, so I keep finding uses .. I feel bad, I've got an 800mhz box as my Media computer in my bedroom that would do this little girl great, but I ain't givin' it up ..
[11:46] <Slart> deostroll: sorry.. didn't read the log properly...
[11:46] <deostroll> ikonia: But if my NUM lock was "on" and I was booting ubuntu, it would go off.
[11:47] <ikonia> deostroll: it's nothing to do with the OS
[11:47] <Tidus> Rodolfo: at the command prompt, type X -version
[11:47] <VSpike> zetheroo: the manager's install still doesn't work for me, but if you unpack to $HOME/.screenlets it seems to work.
[11:47] <deostroll> ikonia: where to specify this in the bios?
[11:47] <deostroll> ikonia: i mean set...?
[11:47] <Tidus> NineTeen67Comet: join me in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[11:47] <ikonia> deostroll: I don't know, I don't support your bios
[11:47] <VSpike> zetheroo: if you try and register one to start on login, it starts whining about missing directories again
[11:47] <zetheroo> VSpike: there is no .screenlets folder for me
[11:47] <VSpike> zetheroo: you need to make it
[11:48] <VSpike> zetheroo: you probably install the screenlet called sidebar
[11:48] <deostroll> ikonia: any keywords you have in mind regarding bioss u support...?
[11:48] <VSpike> I'm wondering if the tuxfamily repo would be any better than this
[11:48] <ikonia> deostroll: no
[11:48] <zetheroo> VSpike: someone said to put the new applets in here /usr/local/share/screenlets
[11:48] <Rodolfo> Tidus: thank you
[11:49] <g0rbeh> deostroll: It shouldnt be too complicated, just get into bios and look for anythign to do with numlock ;)
[11:49] <deostroll> ikonia: ok. no issues.
[11:50] <zetheroo> VSpike: oh yeah...that worked well
[11:50] <VSpike> zetheroo: in the faq it suggest that too yeah, to give access to all users
[11:50] <deostroll> g0rbeh: do I have another choice? :)
[11:51] <g0rbeh> Did anyone have trouble with azureus and iced-tea-java recetly, mine bugged out when trying to do 1.8update.zip and i had to get jre 1.6 and non packaged azureus
[11:51] <g0rbeh> deostroll: nope :) get in there, blue screens with block text are cool :P
[11:52] <VSpike> zetheroo: can you spot the subtle work of spammers here? http://screenlets.org/index.php/CPU_Meter_Vista%27ish
[11:52] <zetheroo> VSpike: ha... thats what I just installed
[11:52] <mrpogi_> ikonia: thanks
[11:53] <Shapeshifter> Does someone know where all the icons are stored? I'm looking for the kde shutdown icon....
[11:54] <g0rbeh> VSpike: That makes me wanna cry =(
[11:54] <Riddell> Shapeshifter: /usr/share/icons/crystalsvg
[11:54] <zionpsyfer__> VSpike: Woohoo http://zionpsyfer.com/screenlets.png
[11:54] <zetheroo> VSpike: just did Clear Calendar... its great
[11:55] <Shapeshifter> Riddell: Thanks!
[11:56] <Ziroday> is there anyway to disable xfailsafe?
[11:56] <Quicksilva> !ati
[11:56] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:56] <VSpike> zionpsyfer__: that's pretty nice
[11:57] <Shapeshifter> Riddell: I'm using somekind of a tango package for everything (so I'm not using crytal) any idea where that could be? (it's not /usr/share/icons/tango or similar)
[11:57] <stmartin> hi! I want to ask you, how to change directory (cd) to desktop on the terminal?
[11:57] <Slart> stmartin: cd ~/Desktop
[11:58] <Slart> stmartin: case sensitive
[11:58] <stmartin> and how to change directory to my directory "stmartin"
[11:58] <ikonia> stmartin: cd stmartin
[11:58] <Slart> Shapeshifter: check in /usr/share or similar "find /usr/ | grep -i icon" should give you some hits
[11:58] <stmartin> ok, thank you very much for the help
[11:59] <stmartin> do you know how to start video convesation in skype <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:59] <Kalamansi> hello im using ubuntu 7.10 ubuntu desktop.server pc1 is my server.. how to share to pc2 internet?

[12:00] <ikonia> stmartin don't think video is supported in linux
[12:00] <bazhang> hi Kalamansi
[12:00] <stmartin> I installed skype 2 beta static
[12:00] <Kalamansi> bazhang, fresh install here
[12:00] <ikonia> mikebeecham: does the xorg log pick key presses
[12:00] <stmartin> on ubuntu 6.06 lts
[12:00] <Ziroday> How do i disable xfailsafe in bulletproof x
[12:00] <Kalamansi> hello bazhang.
[12:00] <ikonia> stmartin I'll say it again
[12:00] <ikonia> stmartin don't think video is supported in linux
[12:00] <mikebeecham> ikonia: I wound't know...how would I check?
[12:00] <Kalamansi> bazhang : are you running server now?
[12:00] <ikonia> mikebeecham look in the loh
[12:00] <stmartin> ok ikonia
[12:00] <Ziroday> ikonia: the skype beta _does_ support video
[12:00] <ikonia> log
[12:01] <Slart> mikebeecham: I think it might be.. in the latest beta
[12:01] <mikebeecham> ikonia...where would I find that?
[12:01] <ikonia> Ziroday excllent
[12:01] <bazhang> Kalamansi: no, just desktop ;}
[12:01] <VSpike> zetheroo: what did you link it to in terms of ICS file?
[12:01] <ikonia> mikebeecham /var/log/
[12:01] <kiri_> #DivX-Italia
[12:01] <zetheroo> VSpike: huh?
[12:01] <erpo> When I pair my bluetooth keyboard with my laptop, I never get prompted for a PIN. What's wrong? Is the connection between the keyboard and the laptop encrypted?
[12:01] <Kalamansi> bazhang you know how to share internet to pc2?my pc1 server have internet connection..if im going to install firestarter do i need to do a config also in iptables?
[12:02] <VSpike> zetheroo: are you using the calendar to show any events data?
[12:02] <Ziroday> erpo: does the keyboard work?
[12:02] <ikonia> stmartin: google seems to suggest that you'll need ubuntu 7.04 or later to get video running, I don't know if thats fact
[12:02] <zetheroo> VSpike: not yet
[12:02] <mikebeecham> ikonia.../which one...I have Xorg.0.long, Xorg.0.log.old, Xorg.20.log and Xorg20.log.old
[12:02] <ikonia> mikebeecham: current
[12:02] <erpo> Ziroday: Yes.
[12:02] <VSpike> erpo: the keyboard probably has a default pin.  It will be in the docs.  Usually 0000 or 1111 or 1234
[12:02] <ikonia> mikebeecham: may also want to check /var/log/messages
[12:02] <ikonia> mikebeecham: you'll see "unknown key" type events
[12:03] <erpo> VSpike: I never entered a PIN on the laptop side. It just works.
[12:03] <ikonia> mikebeecham: try even tailing the logs
[12:03] <erpo> VSpike: So how can I tell if the connection is encrypted?
[12:03] <zetheroo> VSpike: how do you create events?
[12:03] <mikebeecham> ikonia...having opened them up I would not even begin to know what to look for
[12:03] <Ziroday> erpo: keyboards sometimes dont have PIN as they're not needed for every bluetooth device, mainly only for handphone and computer connections
[12:03] <ikonia> mikebeecham: I've just told you
[12:03] <erpo> Ziroday: So how can I tell if the keyboard is broadcasting my keystrokes in the clear?
[12:03] <bazhang> Kalamansi: I think there are likely some iptables experts around today that could tell you much better than I
[12:04] <mikebeecham> you've told me to look in some logs and see if it's picking up key presses
[12:04] <VSpike> zetheroo: lots of calendar programs have ical export.  And lots of online services give you a URL for your info in ICal foramt
[12:04] <Kalamansi> ok bazhang
[12:04] <zetheroo> VSpike: hmmm ok
[12:04] <mikebeecham> not being funny but the content is a little more complicated than you would make it out to be
[12:04] <yokobr> hi
[12:04] <Ziroday> erpo: not sure, but probably by running a bluetooth packet scanner
[12:04] <yokobr> i cant make my mic work =(
[12:05] <Kalamansi> hello admins and experts, how to share internet connection to pc2?my pc1 have internet (which is my server ubuntu desktop 7.10 now) .. and also how to install firewall after sharing internet connection to pc2? thanks
[12:05] <yokobr> i need it to work.. i work with skype.
[12:05] <Ziroday> yokobr: model and make please
[12:05] <erpo> Ziroday: There's no tool that will tell me? hcitool con lists the active connections but doesn't provide any information about the encryption status. The man page for hcitool isn't helpful.
[12:05] <yokobr> well, its a generic mic, on a nforce4 chipset
[12:05] <Shapeshifter> Slart: Thanks for the help finding the icon ;)
[12:05] <Ziroday> erpo: apologies but i dont use bluetooth so I am not sure
[12:05] <e66> hello
[12:06] <erpo> Ziroday: Thanks anyway.
[12:06] <yokobr> Ziroday, well, its a generic mic, on a nforce4 chipset
[12:06] <zionpsyfer> erpo: Do you have the bluetooth manager?
[12:06] <Slart> Shapeshifter: yea.. after 4 other people told you where to look =)
[12:06] <erpo> zionpsyfer: You mean the system tray applet? Yes, I do.
[12:06] <Ziroday> yokobr: not very helpful :)
[12:06] <erpo> zionpsyfer: It doesn't tell me whether or not the connection is encrypted either.
[12:07] <Ziroday> yokobr: can you go to System > Preferences > Hardware Info, and search for any mention of your microphone
[12:07] <zionpsyfer> erpo: Hmmm, let me check something.
[12:07] <bazhang> Kalamansi: if you dont get an answer here there is also #ubuntu-server to try :}
[12:08] <Kalamansi> bazhang : do you always download updates?
[12:08] <zionpsyfer> erpo: Something like this? http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-setup-bluetooth-keyboard-and-mouse-in-ubuntu.html
[12:08] <Quicksilva> Hi there,  I am confused whether to use the ATI binary drivers or the open source ones.  Do you know which one is faster or more stable?
[12:08] <bazhang> Kalamansi: try to stay up to date yeah :}
[12:08] <Slart> Ziroday, yokobr: is this some kind of usb microphone? otherwise I doubt it will show up there...
[12:08] <mrpogi_> how do i use talk?
[12:08] <zionpsyfer> Talks about setting up encryption, so I would assume it's not by default.(?)
[12:08] <VSpike> zetheroo: I just connected it to my schedule world calendar feed but it doesn't seem to work great
[12:08] <ikonia> Quicksilva: ati
[12:08] <ikonia> mrpogi_: I've told you
[12:08] <yokobr> Ziroday, Nvidia CK804 - Mic ADC Alsa Capture Device
[12:09] <Ziroday> Slart: nope its inbuilt
[12:09] <mrpogi_> ok
[12:09] <zetheroo> VSpike: I see
[12:09] <yokobr> Nope, its just that mic that you plug on the pink hole
[12:09] <erpo> zionpsyfer: I've tried those instructions. They can't tell me if the keyboard-laptop connection is encrypted.
[12:09] <Quicksilva> ikonia, so thats the fglrx ones right?
[12:09] <mrpogi_> i'm using ubuntu
[12:09] <Drakx_> how do you find out how much ram a given laptop/desktop has?
[12:09] <ikonia> Quicksilva yup
[12:09] <mrpogi_> i've looked this page up http://ka1fsb.home.att.net/ntalk.html
[12:09] <Quicksilva> ok will give it a go :)
[12:10] <mrpogi_> i'm now in NETWORK DEVICE dummyO
[12:10] <Slart> Drakx_: you could look at the output from "free".. or check in some hardware info software, lshw for example
[12:10] <mrpogi_> where is dummyO?
[12:10] <gvsa123> can gnomebaker burn vcds? i already converted the .avi file with avidemux and it came up with two files... both are mpeg, but one has a comf in the filename which isn't an extension.
[12:10] <Drakx_> Slart: thanks
[12:10] <Kalamansi> bazhang : what is the command again to update?
[12:10] <ikonia> mrpogi_: that guide is very old and no longer needed
[12:10] <Kalamansi> bazhang : so i could get all updates..
[12:10] <mrpogi_> oh
[12:11] <gvsa123> magandang gabi sa inyo
[12:11] <mrpogi_> so i just use ytalk directly?
[12:11] <bazhang> Kalamansi: from the terminal sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade
[12:11] <zionpsyfer> erpo:  And you've set the 'encrypt enable' flags for the keyboard in hcid.conf?
[12:11] <ikonia> mrpogi_ no
[12:11] <LoneWolfUK> How do I get the deleted items icon on my desktop?
[12:11] <mrpogi_> i have to set it up first?
[12:11] <yokobr> any ideas?
[12:11] <ikonia> mrpogi_ correct
[12:11] <e66> Hello,
[12:12] <erpo> zionpsyfer: I've tried it the way suggested in that howto and I've tried not editing the configuration file.
[12:12] <Ziroday> yokobr: okay google turned up nothing, can you record sound with sound recorder (Apps > Sound & Video > Sound Recorder)
[12:12] <Kalamansi> bazhang : it says "done"
[12:12] <chazco> Anyone know how to sync a Samsung phone with 7.10?
[12:12] <erpo> zionpsyfer: Both ways work, but neither way actually tells me whether or not the connection between the keyboard and the laptop is actually really being encrypted.
[12:13] <bazhang> Kalamansi: this is the server? did you enable the necessary repositories?
[12:13] <mrpogi_> you mean like read the man pages?
[12:13] <mrpogi_> please don't say yes
[12:13] <ikonia> mrpogi_: thats one way
[12:13] <mrpogi_> so is there another way?
[12:13] <ikonia> mrpogi_: man pages are a solid source of info
[12:13] <e66> I have a kiosk.sh file runs in runlevel 4. its symlink is in /etc/rc4.d/ dir the script works expect this line. "php run.php >& /dev/null &".
[12:13] <e66> why it doesn't execute. firefox runs okay. see http://pastebin.ca/849362
[12:13] <Kalamansi> bazhang : but i just install this awhile ago and i didnt update or upgrade. why is it "done" hehehe. this is ubuntu desktop 7.10
[12:13] <ikonia> mrpogi_: search the internet for setup guides
[12:14] <mrpogi_> yeah man is good
[12:14] <mrpogi_> i just have to get used to reading it in terminal
[12:14] <ikonia> mrpogi_: you can use xman to read in an x session
[12:14] <mrpogi_> ok
[12:14] <mrpogi_> hey by the way thanks
[12:14] <ikonia> welcome
[12:15] <bazhang> Kalamansi: go to synaptic and under repositories enable the ones you want (most everything except source and backports likely), disable the cd as a source, then reload and apply changes. this is the gui method btw
[12:16] <HoboTown> hi, can someone help me?
[12:16] <zionpsyfer> erpo: I read a threads where enabling encryption broke the set up.  I'll go through the man pages, but that would indicate that it might force encryption for the device.
[12:16] <e66> I have a kiosk.sh file runs in runlevel 4. its symlink is in /etc/rc4.d/ dir the script works expect this line. "php run.php >& /dev/null &".
[12:16] <e66> why it doesn't execute. firefox runs okay. see http://pastebin.ca/849362I have a kiosk.sh file runs in runlevel 4. its symlink is in /etc/rc4.d/ dir the script works expect this line. "php run.php >& /dev/null &".
[12:16] <e66> why it doesn't execute. firefox runs okay. see http://pastebin.ca/849362
[12:16] <mrpogi_> is ytalk installed by default in current ubuntu installations?
[12:16] <ikonia> e66: what error does it give
[12:16] <ikonia> mrpogi_: ytalk ? I said use talk
[12:17] <e66> ikonia:  No error
[12:17] <ikonia> mrpogi_: I don't think talk or ytalk are default
[12:17] <e66> ikonia: did you see my pastebin
[12:17] <bullgard4> man pm-action writes: "var/log/pm-suspend.log: The log file showing what is done on suspend/hibernate and resume/thaw." What does 'thaw' mean? Certainly not an aggregate state transition.
[12:17] <ikonia> e66: e66 what are you expecting to happen ?
[12:17] <dgjones> bullgard4, that is to un-freeze, hope that helps
[12:18] <HoboTown> When I install ubuntu on windows vista it goes to a colour chnage screen then dark, but does not move from there??
[12:18] <bazhang> bullgard4: thaw would be the opposite of hibernate in this case
[12:18] <e66> ikonia:  php run.php >& /dev/null & will be running in background
[12:18] <Kalamansi> hello admins and experts, how to share internet connection to pc2?my pc1 have internet (which is my server ubuntu desktop 7.10 now) .. and also how to install firewall after sharing internet connection to pc2? thanks
[12:18] <ikonia> e66: yes, and then it's killed bellow
[12:18] <e66> ikonia: then firefox will start to run
[12:19] <ikonia> e66: php is launched, then firefox, then php is killed
[12:19] <zionpsyfer> erpo: Does 'hidd --show' give any information on them?
[12:19] <e66> no
[12:19] <e66> ikonia: no
[12:19] <bullgard4> bazhang: In the past, the opposite of hibernate had been called 'resume', or am I wrong?
[12:19] <erpo> zionpsyfer: Yes, but no clues as to whether or not the information is encrypted.
[12:19] <ikonia> e66: when you close firefox, php will die
[12:20] <bazhang> bullgard4: I think you may have mis-remembered :}
[12:20] <Kalamansi> bazhang: if i install ubuntu it should have internet before installing right?
[12:20] <e66> ikonia: when firefox started. i do the normal browsing. when I exist firefox. "pkill X" and "pkill php" will launch
[12:20] <bullgard4> dgjones: Can you give me an applicable definition of 'un-freeze', please?
[12:20] <ikonia> e66 yes, thats as I read it
[12:20] <e66> ikonia: But I am checking this before firefox exited by ssh
[12:20] <ikonia> Kalamansi: you should have internet access
[12:21] <bazhang> Kalamansi: likely if it is a more modern machine and you are talking about wired (ethernet) then yes
[12:21] <ikonia> e66: php is not a daemon, it's a script so the "process" many not be called "php" you need to look what run.php launches
[12:21] <Flynsarmy> I have a giant set of unpartitioned space but when i right click on it in GParted the NTFS option is greyed out. Anyone know why that is?
[12:21] <Kalamansi> ikonia : okay ill reinstall it again then. because i cant get "sudo apt-get firestarter"
[12:21] <HoboTown> When I install ubuntu on windows vista it goes to a colour chnage screen then dark, but does not move from there??
[12:21] <ikonia> HoboTown: how are you installing ubuntu "on" vista
[12:21] <e66> ikonia:  I have wrote run.php
[12:21] <ikonia> e66: ahhh I see
[12:22] <ikonia> e66: if you "php run.php" what happens ?
[12:22] <e66> ikonia:  export PWD=/var/www/mmplayer; php run.php >& /dev/null &
[12:22] <e66> it runs
[12:22] <fritsy4> hi, where are the fonts located in ubuntu?
[12:22] <Flynsarmy> HoboTown: http://www.howtoforge.com/dual_boot_windows_xp_vista_ubuntu_feisty nice helpful tutorial with screenshots. Works with gutsy
[12:22] <ikonia> e66: just pondering
[12:23] <chazco> Is there a way to backup google mail/gmail to Ubuntu?
[12:23] <bullgard4> bazhang: http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/Hardware/Mini_HOW_TO_Hibernate_and_resume_0
[12:23] <HoboTown> thanks
[12:23] <dgjones> bullgard4, i can only say its the opposite of freeze
[12:23] <zionpsyfer> erpo: try 'hcitool enc', what does it spew?
[12:23] <bullgard4> dgjones: Thank you very much.
[12:23] <bazhang> bullgard4: hmmm
[12:24] <Flynsarmy> How do i stop ubuntu going to a full bright screen after 10 seconds of idling?
[12:24] <Flynsarmy> I just want it to stay on the brightness it's currently on
[12:24] <zionpsyfer> erpo:  You'll need the address of the kb, (hcitool dev)
[12:28] <ghost> hello there whats the channel for freedsb plz :) ?
[12:28] <Pici> ghost: perhaps #freebsd ?
[12:29] <ghost> Pici ty but i cannot join :(
[12:29] <ikonia> your banned
[12:29] <zetheroo> http://www.screenlets.org/index.php/Slideshow    what is the python image module?
[12:29] <ghost> mayby...
[12:32] <erpo> zionpsyfer: HCI set encryption request failed: Input/output error
[12:32] <zetheroo> anyone?
[12:33] <zionpsyfer> zetheroo: package is 'python-imaging'
[12:33] <zetheroo> zionpsyfer: thanks
[12:34] <EduardoSal> ?
[12:34] <zionpsyfer> erpo: Gah hcitool con or hcitool info ?
[12:35] <erpo> zionpsyfer: Both of those commands work and show information about the devices.
[12:35] <zionpsyfer> erpo: let me guess, no info about encryption state?
[12:36] <erpo> zionpsyfer: Nope.
[12:36] <yokobr> hey guys.. i cant make my mic work
[12:37] <yokobr> wich options should be enabled on that sound mix?
[12:37] <zionpsyfer> erpo:  Figures..  I'm out of ideas then.  Google isn't giving up the goods on determining whether a connection is using it or not
[12:37] <Flynsarmy> I'm using Gutsy and tried to test flash player by going to youtube. firefox reported i needed to install either flash player or gnash. i installed flash player - still wasn't working. i installed gnash aswell, still not working. Any ideas?
[12:37] <_starryeyedboy_> g_ have u tried the ubuntu-forums? lots of docs there. also, launchpad..
[12:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Flynsarmy: see the topic or below
[12:38] <Jack_Sparrow> !flashissues
[12:38] <ubotu> The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix.
[12:38] <ikonia> Flynsarmy the ubuntu flash package is currently broke
[12:38] <_starryeyedboy_> g_ - i managed to solve my broadcom issues thru those sites.. took a while but - well, i'm running on wireless now =)
[12:38] <Flynsarmy> Would it be worth waiting for an official fix?
[12:38] <erpo> zionpsyfer: I'm trying in #bluez-users, but not having much luck. Thanks for your help anyway.
[12:38] <Jack_Sparrow> _starryeyedboy_: Which broadcom bcm43 or 943
[12:39] <_starryeyedboy_> me - its the bcm43
[12:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Flynsarmy: entirely up to you...but it is advised that you wait so the fix does not cause further problems
[12:40] <generalsnus> Heyas folks. i have set up samba on ubuntu 7.10, shared a folder in my /home folder.. works ... but when i share folders on my 2. disk.. users dont see the shares, seems like the disk isnt mounted automaticly during boot, also if i mount it manually..users still can access the shares
[12:40] <Jack_Sparrow> _starryeyedboy_: Thanks, I have had no problems with the 43 but have not found a tutorial for the 943
[12:40] <zionpsyfer> erpo:  Sorry I couldn't be more help.  If it makes you feel any better, it still looks like if you've set it to use encryption, it will.  Just trusting that it is isn't a good solution though. =(
[12:40] <_starryeyedboy_> i see - one sec, let me just confirm mine
[12:41] <Jack_Sparrow> generalsnus: One of the common problems/fixes it to have the same username and pass on both systems
[12:41] <erpo> zionpsyfer: No it isn't. In fact, a certain file containing encryption keys has not been created, so there's an excellent chance it's not using encryption.
[12:41] <zionpsyfer> erpo: Shows what I know then. =P
[12:41] <dgjones> _starryeyedboy_, what problem did you have, my 4306 was easy to set up using restricted drivers (i had the benefit of a wired connection as well)
[12:42] <Jack_Sparrow> dgjones: agreed, a wired connection makes all the difference
 hm. first of all - when i tried installing ndiswrapper - it kept getting stuck, telling me that i had it installed already, even though i was on a fresh install
 next, once i got it installed - i couldn't connect to networks although i could see em
[12:44] <Jack_Sparrow> _starryeyedboy_: How were you trying to install it..  ? apt-get or synaptic etc
[12:44] <generalsnus> Jack_Sparrow: well when i connected for the first time it asked for usr/pass..so i marked for "remember password" worked fine, and still works on the share in my /home... but not on the shares on 2. disk
 i used apt-get
[12:44] <cleaton> !flash
[12:44] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[12:44] <ubotu> The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix.
[12:44] <schnoodles> when installing ubuntu how big shuld i make the swap drive ?
[12:44] <Jack_Sparrow> generalsnus: Are permissions getting in the way?
[12:45] <cleaton> when are they going to fix the flash problem? :/
[12:45] <Pici> schnoodles: If you plan on suspending, I'd say about 1.5 x your RAM.
[12:45] <dgjones> _starryeyedboy_, strange, i just installed fwcutter, clicked on restricted drivers, that gave me the option of providing the driver or letting it download from the web - I let it download, rebooted and it worked straight off
[12:45] <Jack_Sparrow> cleaton: No one knows.  Lots of people are working on it
[12:45] <schnoodles> ahh so double will do then :)
[12:45] <schnoodles> thanks
 the thing was - when i tried using the restricted driver manager - it told me i didn't need any... couldn't get it to work
[12:45] <schnoodles> and do i use logical or primary
[12:45] <generalsnus> Jack_Sparrow: yes, it may seem so
[12:45] <Jack_Sparrow> _starryeyedboy_: I used fwcutter here too.. worked like a charm
[12:45] <Pici> schnoodles: I dont believe it matters.
[12:45] <stewartm82> schnoodles: hey josh
[12:46] <generalsnus> dunno how i can change permissions on whole disk tho
[12:46] <schnoodles> hey stewartm82
 i see.. i'll keep in mind, for my next fresh install. cos i am not sure how i got it working this time =p
[12:46] <stewartm82> did you install on your lappy yet?
[12:46] <Jack_Sparrow> generalsnus: Here is a thought..   sudo mkdir /data/$USER && sudo chown $USER:$USER /data/$USER && sudo chmod u+rwx /data/$USER
[12:46] <Flynsarmy> Anyone know how to stop the NTFS option being greyed out in Gparted? I have a giant section of unpartitioned spae that i'm trying to convert to NTFS but it won't let me
[12:47] <cleaton> Jack_Sparrow, but there is working .deb files in the forum, why can't they just add those to the repo?
[12:47] <ciazzz> hi
[12:47] <ciazzz> I do not know if is there anyone that uses systemC ecc.. however I'll try anyway to send a question:
[12:47] <ciazzz> is necessary to use vmware or an other virtualizzator if I want create a cosimulation between: GDB ISS (for sofware), NS2 (for network) and SystemC (for Hardware) ?
[12:47] <ciazzz> or is it possible using a normal linux distribuition?
[12:48] <_starryeyedboy_> with regards to my broadcom issue - i followed instructions here: http://www.micahcarrick.com/11-04-2007/ubuntu-d830-install-notes.html
