[05:47] <FR500> nu ath0 is just for atheros cards
[05:47] <nocarrier> sparkleytone: i have 5269 open...
[05:47] <Josh> nu: eth1
[05:47] <nocarrier> sparkleytone: ah... i know
[05:47] <nu> FR500: is he not using atheros/
[05:47] <nu> FR500: ok guess not lol
[05:47] <Josh> FR500: i'd need a vnc server ;)
[05:47] <FR500> yup
[05:47] <Emon> Why does installing sun-java5-jdk require x11-common :S
[05:47] <nocarrier> sparkleytone: I just added the DNS record about 10 minutes ago ;)
[05:47] <nu> Josh: type: iwlist eth1 scanning
[05:47] <FR500> Josh you probably have one already
[05:47] <sparkleytone> nocarrier: dig tampalinux.org returns nothing
[05:48] <FR500> nu network-admin does support atheros well
[05:48] <Josh> eth1      No scan results
[05:48] <sparkleytone> nocarrier: pinging it returns multiple ips
[05:48] <MadHatter_> is there a way to start vncserver on boot, so i can login remotely?
[05:48] <HackerX> Im trying to install gaim-guifications but i keep getting the error "No package 'gaim' found" but i have gaim installed any ideas???
[05:48] <HackerX> i have the src
[05:48] <sparkleytone> nocarrier: you might want to set up a dns A record first ;)
[05:48] <nu> FR500: then i don't know what happened lol =(
[05:48] <nocarrier> sparkleytone: i did...
[05:48] <nocarrier> sparkleytone: about 10 minutes ago
[05:48] <FR500> can anyone with a gmail account try to use pop with evolution mail?
[05:48] <nocarrier> sparkleytone: gotta wait
[05:48] <nu> FR500: ubuntu didn't detect his NIC at all.
[05:48] <abhinay> i got a problem with 'gnome-settings-daemon',  saying  -   "problem with Bonobo, or a non-GNOME (e.g. KDE) settings manager may already be active and conflicting with the GNOME settings manager" Any Suggestions ?
[05:49] <sparkleytone> nocarrier: ya...looks like you don't use your own dns, so you'll prob have to wait a while
[05:49] <nu> FR500: i dont think
[05:49] <yoshiznit123> hi everyone, if I have two computers with Ubuntu, can I get a list of packages that are on one but not the other (a 'diff')?
[05:49] <FR500> nu weird, it works since warty for me
[05:49] <nu> Josh: type ifconfig eth1 up
[05:49] <nocarrier> sparkleytone: i do run my own...
[05:50] <FR500> Josh: what about ssh access?
[05:50] <Josh> SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory
[05:50] <FR500> Josh: a temporary pass if you want
[05:50] <nu> Josh: you got that when you did ifconfig eth1 up?
[05:50] <sparkleytone> nocarrier: then we're waiting for your NS records to take effect?
[05:50] <Josh> FR500: I'd rather do VNC if you fond me a server
[05:50] <Josh> nu: yes
[05:50] <Josh> *found

[05:50] <Josh> jon_: www.skype.com
[05:50] <jon_> can i use rpm on ubuntu?
[05:51] <thundr> yoshiznit123, can you sort by installed packages in synaptic and export that list, and do the same with the other computer then run diff or whatever the compare command is?
[05:51] <avis> FR500 xfce is very simple
[05:51] <nocarrier> sparkleytone: but it won't ping
[05:51] <hyperstream_> sorry if you guys got this before i d/c:
[05:51] <hyperstream_> hello, ive just installed a new wireless adapter. and used ndiswrapper to install the windows INF, install correctly iwconfig shows ra0 etc.. i using the gnome manager and trying to enable wep, (key being on the router: 123ABC1233 (64bit)) any ideas to why it wont assign a ip4 ipaddress etc, this is also happening on a windows server im trying to use a wireless card. yet my fathers laptop will connect fine to what ever typ
[05:51] <hyperstream_> e of encryption i use: open wep, shared wep, wpa-psk etc etc. it will work is i have it OPEN with no encrytion(both ubuntu and my sisters windows box)
[05:51] <jon_> which one should i get? the debian package?
[05:51] <FR500> avis how do i set up vnc there?
[05:51] <nocarrier> sparkleytone: oops
[05:51] <yoshiznit123> thundr, yea how do i get that package list though?
[05:51] <avis> thundr, good thinking.
[05:51] <jon_> and after i dl it, how do i actually install it?

[05:51] <nu> Josh: then i have no idea lol =(
[05:51] <MadHatter_> hey guys, is there any way to add vnc to a file so that it starts up upon boot???
[05:51] <Josh> nu :(
[05:51] <sparkleytone> nocarrier: ahhh 'oops'...the sweet sound of BIND ;)
[05:51] <ninjapeppery> ;\
[05:51] <FR500> hyperstream probably dhcp is disable
[05:52] <hyperstream_> it cant be if my dads laptop is being assigned a ip address
[05:52] <thundr> yoshiznit123, I'll look it up, it's in the menus
[05:52] <hyperstream_> its enabled on the router.
[05:52] <nocarrier> sparkleytone: now it pings... didn't have a rule in ipt
[05:52] <thundr> yoshiznit123, open synaptic, under the status button click installed, then export the list
[05:53] <FR500> Josh: maybe there is vnc server already, probably you just have to enagle it
[05:53] <thundr> yoshiznit123, in dapper, the export command's under file, save markings as...
[05:53] <CVirus> what should be the path of PYTHONDOCS variable in Ubuntu ?
[05:53] <Josh> FR500: i'll look at ubuntuguide.org
[05:53] <FR500> Josh: in gnome there is a remote desktop thingy
[05:53] <FR500> lately, i can't seem to be able to use my gmail account with evolution, does anyone have the same problem?
[05:54] <jon_> how do i get to desktop on the terminal?
[05:54] <Josh> ah yes
[05:54] <FR500> Josh: you need to forward ports on the router
[05:54] <Josh> FR500: I know, I run a home web server
[05:54] <FR500> kk
[05:55] <DarkElf109> Does anypne know if there's an easy way to have multiple vimrc's, and switch between them easily?

[05:56] <FR500> hello MAssacration
[05:56] <wheels3572> Can someone help me I really screwed things up here lol
[05:56] <hyperstream_> hmm how do i go about restricting my open network to mac addresses?
[05:56] <DarkElf109> HackerX: sudo apt-get install gaim-guifications ?
[05:57] <FR500> hyperstream_: what? that is all router setup
[05:57] <wheels3572> I have 1 machine reading <IP_ADDRESS> and the other reading <IP_ADDRESS> and I CANT access my router page :(
[05:57] <DarkElf109> wheels3572: Reading?
[05:57] <FR500> 1.100 and 2.100 are in different subnets
[05:57] <MAssacration> hey <wheels3572> add the debuntu repository
[05:57] <hyperstream_> yes. how would i go about it
[05:57] <FR500> Josh: ip add?
[05:58] <hyperstream_> since the router isnt allowing more than 1 computer to connect to it when wep/wpa enabled.
[05:58] <Josh> FR500: hang on :P
[05:58] <wheels3572> FR500, Now do I find out the address of my router?
[05:58] <bricktop> SKYPE is really choppy
[05:58] <bricktop> .
[05:58] <FR500> wheels3572: are you connected to internet through that router?
[05:58] <bricktop> anyone else experiece this?
[05:58] <wheels3572> MAssacration, Im new here I will need more info for that
[05:58] <wheels3572> Yes
[05:58] <wheels3572> FR500, Yes I am
[05:58] <wheels3572> FR500, I did ifconfig
[05:58] <MAssacration> ok here it goes
[05:58] <FR500> then type "ip route" the ip address on default gateway is it
[05:59] <wheels3572> FR500, that's it DUHHHH me ty FR500  :)
[05:59] <Emon> Could someone explain to my why the sun-java5-jdk package requires "laptop-detect," "libx11-6" and "x11-common"
[05:59] <ubuntu> ...
[05:59] <MAssacration> this page teaches u how to add this rep http://repository.debuntu.org/
[05:59] <mokomull> I'm having difficulty figuring out how to get my new Ubuntu system to find linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-26-386
[06:00] <DarkElf109> mokomull: Do you have universe and multiverse repositories enabled?
[06:00] <mokomull> It upgraded the kernel for me, but then the atheros driver went missing... and that's why.  Can't find the linux-restricted-modules properly
[06:00] <mokomull> DarkElf109: I think so
[06:00] <DarkElf109> mokomull: From the console, run apt-get update, then try again
[06:01] <DarkElf109> 'Cause I can see the package from here
[06:01] <mokomull> DarkElf109: Hmm...
[06:01] <Tsukino> Hey guys, I'm having a couple unrelated problems at the moment =/
[06:01] <mokomull> DarkElf109: care to pastebin your sources.list?
[06:01] <DarkElf109> mokomull: If all else fails, you can just download the package from here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/misc/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-26-386 , then use dpkg -i to install it
[06:02] <FR500> mokomull: just boot to a previous kernel image
[06:02] <DarkElf109> !tell mokomull about source-o-matic
[06:02] <mokomull> DarkElf109: I'm installing the system for someone else, and I don't want to have to make them do this every update
[06:02] <wheels3572> I did iproute
[06:02] <wheels3572> What specifically am I looking for
[06:02] <DarkElf109> mokomull: Ah. It SHOULD show up. Which is odd. Go through the source-o-matic, and just use the sources.list that it generates
[06:03] <FR500> wheels3572: the ip after the word via
[06:03] <wheels3572> FR500, thats' what I been TRYING to do lol and it's NOT leting me
[06:03] <Josh> FR500: hmm
[06:03] <wheels3572> <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:03] <Auckland_Pig> sethk: i'm trying editing .bashrc , will logout and login and come back here....
[06:03] <FR500> wheels3572: hmmm broken router=
[06:03] <FR500> Josh: ?
[06:03] <Tsukino> My laptop's getting a fair bit warmer idling than it does in Windows. I do cat /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/info and it'd saying that throttling is off, how do I enable that?
[06:04] <wheels3572> FR500, I JUST did a change in the router and it told me to release/renew the dhcp and it woudln't le me
[06:04] <Josh> vncserver: couldn't find "Xvnc" on your PATH.
[06:04] <wheels3572> so if it's broke it just broke now
[06:04] <mokomull> DarkElf109: I did the source-o-matic, and it works great.  Thanks.      Thanks.)
[06:05] <Cigarette> can anyone help me out? i'm having a bit of a problem with "make install"...
[06:05] <DarkElf109> mokomull: Probably just a missing repository somewhere. Glad I could help
[06:05] <wheels3572> I went from <IP_ADDRESS> to <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:05] <DarkElf109> mokomull: I deleted 5 years worth of email in a single command once. Don't worry about it =P
[06:05] <Josh> FR500: can we do this some other way
[06:05] <Josh> ?
[06:06] <FR500> Josh: hmmm ssh, but you dont want that
[06:06] <Josh> hmm.
[06:06] <orbin> Cigarette: and that problem'd be?
[06:06] <HackerX> ok, the apt-get gaim-guification is to old i need the beta3 version i have to beta3 src. but i cant install it says" no gaim package found" and its really starting to annoy me Does anyone know what i can do????????
[06:07] <mokomull> A
[06:07] <Cigarette> every time i do a make install i get  "Can't find kernel build files /lib/modules/2.6.12-9-386/build
[06:07] <FR500> arghh!!!!
[06:07] <orbin> Cigarette: what are you installing?
[06:07] <DarkElf109> HackerX: apt-cache search gaim-dev
[06:07] <Geoffrey2> one of these days I need to do a little studying on the linux file system structure, if I could make heads or tails out of what all the various main directories were and there purpose, I could probably at least guess at where I'd find a particular file located
[06:07] <FR500> anyone witha gmail account, help!!!
[06:07] <Cigarette> ndiswrapper
[06:07] <Josh> well
[06:07] <Cigarette> version 1.22
[06:08] <Josh> I guess i'll have to settle :(
[06:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Cigarette: Do you need to install build-essentials
[06:08] <DarkElf109> Cigarette: apt-cache search linux-headers
[06:08] <Cigarette> i did
[06:08] <Hoxzer> If I want to have a flash support in mozilla should it be easily done by apt-get flash-nonfree and then pops up the window -> I tick they sentences saying about flashinstall
[06:08] <FR500> Geoffrey "locate  filename"
[06:08] <jason> ok why does my screen stay lit but black after returning from acpi sleep?
[06:08] <Hoxzer> should it be easily installed by doing that?
[06:08] <HackerX> DarkElf109, ok now what???
[06:08] <orbin> Geoffrey2: google it: http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/linuxdir.html
[06:08] <FR500> Josh: nahh it's pretty weird
[06:08] <Josh> FR500: indeed
[06:08] <DarkElf109> jason: Sleep is inherently buggy and operates on a fine balance of black and white magic
[06:08] <HackerX>
[06:08] <FR500> if you want ssh, i can log the commandos for you
[06:08] <Cigarette> i already got the build-essential stuff
[06:08] <orbin> jason: what video card and what driver?
[06:09] <Geoffrey2> FR500, that's great if I know the filename
[06:09] <jason> orbin, what command do I type to determine that?
[06:09] <DarkElf109> jason: It could be because of drivers, running programs, hardware problems, or any combination of the aforementioned
[06:09] <FR500> Josh ot you could vnc me, and watch me do that via ssh
[06:09] <jason> it's a Lenovo C100, and I can't find any info on google
[06:09] <orbin> Geoffrey2: what are you looking for?
[06:09] <bmrtin> does ubuntu have a repair tool like suse does
[06:09] <Josh> FR500: i guess so.
[06:09] <jason> the next challenge is going to be getting the wifi to work
[06:10] <DarkElf109> jason: lspci | grep VGA
[06:10] <Josh> FR500: ssh is installed and running ;(
[06:10] <bricktop> have you used skype to make international calls? is it choppy for  you also

[06:10] <HackerX> DarkElf109, ok now what???
[06:11] <Auckland_Pig> edited .bashrc
[06:11] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, right, I had suggested sourcing .bash_profile in .bashrc
[06:11] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, I believe the "correct" place to do it is /etc/profile
[06:11] <orbin> jason: now do this to determine the driver: grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf | tail -1
[06:11] <Josh> FR500: #testchannel
[06:11] <DarkElf109> jason: In all honesty, I have a lot of trouble trying to get sleep/hibernate working on my own machine, and it's a 50/50 sort of thing when it does work, so, I'm not sure I can help you
[06:12] <nekostar> mmm

[06:14] <jason> thanks orbin, I'll give it a shot
[06:14] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, is the script named script01?
[06:14] <Geoffrey2> orbin, lesse...how about the repo source file?
[06:14] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, and is it in /?
[06:14] <orbin> Geoffrey2: /etc/apt/sources.list

[06:15] <lecaros> !ping
[06:15] <ubotu> pong

[06:15] <wheels3572> FR500, I figured it out :)
[06:15] <Auckland_Pig> sethk: it is called script01... and it is in ~/bin
[06:15] <wheels3572> I had to access it from the working pc :)
[06:15] <orbin> aujordanh: i love grip
[06:15] <yoshiznit123> bow, thats normal to have to check the filesystem just in case. if you want to change it, use tune2fs
[06:16] <tocool4u> I like metasploit
[06:16] <lnxguit> aujordanh, check out grip
[06:16] <aujordanh> !info grip
[06:16] <ubotu> grip: GNOME-based CD-player/ripper/encoder. In repository universe, is optional. Version 3.3.1-4 (dapper), package size 440 kB, installed size 1268 kB
[06:16] <Geoffrey2> orbin, is etc short for anything?
[06:16] <aujordanh> thanks
[06:16] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, file:///script01 should be in /.  Try creating a symbolic link:   cd /;  ln -s /bin/script01
[06:16] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, that is, cd to /, then do ln -s /bin/script01
[06:16] <bow> ok, thanks you <yoshiznit123>
[06:17] <orbin> Geoffrey2: etcetera? not sure ... but most of the config files are in there
[06:17] <Auckland_Pig> sethk: will do that now...
[06:17] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, that might not be the final solution, but it will be an interesting data point.
[06:17] <FreeLanced> what is a similar website to distrowatch?
[06:17] <orbin> Geoffrey2: like i said, check out: http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/linuxdir.html
[06:17] <tocool4u> !info Ubuntu
[06:17] <ubotu> Package Ubuntu does not exist in dapper
[06:17] <Auckland_Pig> sethk: yup
[06:18] <Geoffrey2> orbin, etcetera...that's what I thought of when I saw the name...I see from that html you pointed me to that it's for config files
[06:18] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, ok.  now, how is the script executed?  Not from the command line, the case where it complains about file:///script01 does not exist  ?
[06:18] <tocool4u> !info ndiswrapper
[06:18] <ubotu> Package ndiswrapper does not exist in dapper

[06:19] <Auckland_Pig> sethk: after pressing Alt + F2... there is a small dialog box... Run application... i'm trying to run it from there
[06:19] <nekostar> shit
[06:19] <nekostar> anyone know anything about x264?????
[06:19] <jason> any other ideas?
[06:19] <alienseer23> gpartes is good, but didn't seem to help
[06:20] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, ok.  you can enter the full path, as in   /bin/script01  (or was it /usr/bin/script01?)
[06:20] <lnxguit> alienseer, I also like cfdisk
[06:20] <Auckland_Pig> sethk: when i enter the full path... it executes fine....
[06:20] <Geoffrey2> beyond the repos maintained on the ubuntu.com servers, are there any repos out there worth adding...I already have the wine repository included
[06:20] <orbin> jason: what computer model again?
[06:20] <alienseer23> I have having a problem getting a logical ntfs to go to fat32
[06:21] <Auckland_Pig> sethk: but isn't it supposed to execute even without full path.... given that the $PATH is set properly....

[06:21] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, did you create the file /bin/script after you started the desktop?
[06:21] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, because what happens is that the contents of the directories in PATH are cached
[06:21] <Jack_Sparrow> alienseer23: I take it you are trying not to delete your xp install while converting ntfs to fat32?
[06:21] <farous> hi i am thinking of buying a comstar 250 3.5" external hard drive and was wondering how well supported it is on ubuntu? if any used comstar i would appreciate their feedback for the company is totally new to me
[06:21] <lnxguit> Delete the partition & recreate it as fat32
[06:21] <alienseer23> jack, yes :D
[06:22] <alienseer23> I have 5 partitions
[06:22] <poddo> what driver should i use with my nvidia rive tnt 128?
[06:22] <poddo> *riva
[06:22] <alienseer23> one for linux file system and one for xp, no issues there
[06:22] <Jack_Sparrow> alienseer23: I thought linux would only see 4
[06:22] <orbin> jason: tried suspend2?
[06:22] <alienseer23> really?
[06:22] <Emon> uhhhh
[06:22] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, within a shell, you can do:   hash -r    which tells the shell to recreate the hash.  Starting a new shell recreates the hash.  The desktop is run by a shell and there is no good way to tell that shell to rehash.
[06:22] <Emon> why can I run init scripts as non root
[06:22] <jason> orbin: what's the procedure for enabling suspend2?
[06:22] <lnxguit> only 4 primary, but many logical
[06:22] <Auckland_Pig> sethk: ok...
[06:22] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, if that's what's happening, then the file would be found after rebooting.
[06:22] <Jack_Sparrow> alienseer23: DOuble check with someone but I did see that somewhere..
[06:22] <alienseer23> it was working fine reading them before I tried to convert from ntfs for the next 2 partitions?
[06:23] <HackerX> What source do i need to get Gaim-dev i have all them checked and still says i need anothing one but doesnt say what one
[06:23] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, that's why I asked whether script01 was created after the desktop was started.
[06:23] <Auckland_Pig> sethk: oh yes...
[06:23] <alienseer23> h'mmm
[06:23] <alienseer23> I will continue
[06:23] <alienseer23> gonna check out qparted
[06:23] <maxkelley> poddo: nvidia-legacy is what you need to download from synaptic.
[06:23] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, also, update PATH in /etc/profile
[06:23] <Geoffrey2> wouldn't the easiest method be to ghost (or otherwise backup) the partition, reformat it as FAT32, and then just restore the backup?
[06:23] <lnxguit> it's nice, very straightforward
[06:23] <Jack_Sparrow> qtparted
[06:24] <orbin> jason: maybe start here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221088
[06:24] <poddo> from synaptic?  im new to linux in general, cn i get a little more specific advice?
[06:24] <alienseer23> yes, qt :)
[06:24] <poddo> like, apt-get install nvidia-legacy?
[06:24] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, because the desktop is started by root, and the path in /root/.bashrc and /root/.bash_profile have not been edited by you, I believe.
[06:24] <Auckland_Pig> sethk: no...
[06:24] <HackerX> What source do i need to get Gaim-dev i have all them checked and still says i need anothing one but doesnt say what one
[06:24] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, the PATH is at the very beginning of /etc/profile
[06:25] <Adam_G> erm, I'm in a bit of an issue. I seem to have both /dev/sda5 and /dev/sda1 mounted as /home? /dev/sda1 is set as /home in fstab, but sudo mount -a doesn't seem to help (/dev/sda5 isn't in fstab at all). sudo umount /dev/sda5 fails with a device is busy...
[06:25] <sethk> Auckland_Pig,there is a test for user id == 0.  user id == 0 means root.  So you'll see a path for root and then a path for the rest of the world.
[06:25] <maxkelley> poddo: errr, that's not the exact name.. go into synaptic, click "search", type nvidia-legacy
[06:25] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, changing the path in /etc/profile should carry through to all shells
[06:25] <davegoodson> hi, when i play videos on movie player, the sound is slow and out of sync. How do i fix this?
[06:25] <poddo> maxkelly, thanks
[06:26] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, we know it's a path issue because you can run it by entering the full path.
[06:26] <Cigarette> davegoodson, could it be the video?
[06:26] <davegoodson> no
[06:26] <Adam_G> eh, maybe a restart will fix it... or break it entirely ;)
[06:26] <ferrouswheel> Hi all, as anyone had experience installing mldonkey-server?
[06:26] <Cigarette> hmm... then i dont know.
[06:26] <davegoodson> it worked before
[06:26] <davegoodson> untill i installed mplayer..
[06:26] <BenrightB4> hey all.. i hate to ask this question on here, i know i am in the wrong spot for it... but i have two computers, this one on ubuntu, and the other one wich is a windows system... does anybody know how to stop things from automatically coming on when the computer starts... i used to know, but its been a while since i have used it
[06:27] <davegoodson> oh never mind im going to restart from scratch
[06:27] <tocool4u> What do you mean ...like start up program?
[06:27] <Cigarette> ok
[06:27] <Cigarette> good luck
[06:27] <davegoodson> thanks ;0
[06:27] <jason> thanks orbin I'm installing a new kernel now
[06:27] <BenrightB4> yeah the programs that automatically start, like aim and msn and stuff on windows
[06:28] <tocool4u> Right click my cmputer
[06:28] <sethk> BenrightB4, there's a startup folder
[06:28] <jason> anyone with ideas on getting this wifi card working?
[06:28] <tocool4u> yea but just for some programs
[06:28] <Cigarette> jason, i'm trying to get mine working too man... let me know how you get yours done hahaha
[06:28] <avis> BenrightB4, if i'm not mistaken there is a msconfig for windows xp as well.  msconfig.exe
[06:28] <sethk> BenrightB4, xp also has services.  you can start the service manager and change the status to manual
[06:29] <jason> Cigarette, apparently it works with ndiswrapper
[06:29] <BenrightB4> oh yeah, thanks a lot
[06:29] <jason> I'm just unsure of what to do with ndiswrapper
[06:29] <avis> at first i thought he was talking about ubuntu then went hmm.  :)
[06:29] <Cigarette> jason, mine doesn... i havent been able to get ndiswrapper built from the source yet.... i think my installation is broken
[06:30] <jason> how do I determine which wifi card I have?
[06:30] <nateman1352> hi all, I just updated my 6.06 dapper system, after which it hangs at "Waiting for root filesystem" and won't boot, after a while it drops to a simple shell, I was able to get it to boot my doing a modprobe ide-disk, but it gave some udev errors and it appears that none of my other hardware had its driver modules loaded (USB, Network...,) any ideas how to fix this?  Maybe reinstall udev?
[06:30] <jason> isn't ndiswrapper just a package?
[06:30] <Cigarette> yes
[06:30] <Cigarette> use lspci
[06:30] <Cigarette> lspci -n i think
[06:30] <Distrowatched> Yo, got Ham?
[06:30] <tocool4u> is thier vhost on this network
[06:31] <Cigarette> lspci to get the big number and then match it to the small one (xxxx:xxxx)
[06:31] <Cigarette> the small one is from lspci - n
[06:31] <ryan_naruto> how can i share files in both linux machines??
[06:31] <Cigarette> then match the small number to the ndiswrapper list
[06:31] <ryan_naruto> my desktop is xubuntu
[06:32] <Auckland_Pig> sethk: thanks for the help
[06:32] <arooni> folks does anyone know how to get wget to get *all* images for a certain file... you see i only et some files when i do wget
[06:32] <lnxguit> ryan_naruto, have you tried nfs
[06:32] <sethk> Auckland_Pig, np, hope it works for you
[06:32] <jason> anyone know how to enable touchpad scrolling in xorg.conf without the synaptics driver?
[06:32] <avis> samba and i think its easier done in xubuntu than it is in ubuntu xubuntu seems to have a program that makes sharing files over the lan easy.  i'm sure you still need the samba package though
[06:32] <HackerX_> ok im am extremely irritated right now can someone P L E A S E tell me how to gaim-dev every time i try to get it says i need another source..........
[06:32] <Flannel> HackerX_: you try apt-getting the build-deps?
[06:33] <HackerX_> Flannel, What exactly do you mean
[06:33] <HackerX_> ?
[06:33] <shawnr_> ugg, i followed a howto (used a pre made script) to intall firefox32/flsh/java/mplayer. no thing worked. and now i can't see to find where to uninstall java/mplayer-mozilla/flash. can anyone help me clean up this mess?
[06:33] <digitalpenguin> hello all
[06:33] <Flannel> HackerX_: apt-get build-dep
[06:34] <tocool4u> !info dep
[06:34] <ubotu> Package dep does not exist in dapper
[06:34] <tocool4u> !dep
[06:34] <ubotu> I know nothing about dep - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:34] <poddo> maxkelly, when i ran the nvidia-glx-config enable, to turn on the driver, i get: Error: your X configuration has been altered.
[06:34] <Flannel> tocool4u: what are you looking for?
[06:35] <nateman1352> hi all, I just updated my 6.06 dapper system, after which it hangs at "Waiting for root filesystem" and won't boot, after a while it drops to a simple shell, I was able to get it to boot my doing a modprobe ide-disk, but it gave some udev errors and it appears that none of my other hardware had its driver modules loaded (USB, Network...,) any ideas how to fix this?  Maybe reinstall udev?
[06:36] <avis> poddo type cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep nvidia  if driver is nvidia instead of nv, all is well, else edit and change nv to nvidia
[06:36] <ryan_naruto> how do i install nfs?? is it the same with nfs-common????
[06:36] <avis> once its nvidia, restart X
[06:36] <poddo> ok, thanks.  should it be nvidia or nvidia-legacy
[06:37] <shawnr_> can anyone please help me fix my mess
[06:37] <Cigarette> can someon PM me and help me out with this whole "make install" stuff?
[06:37] <shawnr_> before i get drastic and format my drive lol
[06:37] <linux_user400354> sudo sed -i 's/id:5:initdefault:/id:6:initdefault:/' /etc/inittab && sudo reboot
[06:37] <Jack_Sparrow> poddo probably legacy but check the list of cards
[06:37] <avis> do you have a legacy card or nvidia card ?  i'm not sure -- i'd refer to the ubuntu documentation for either legacy or conmon nvidia cards.
[06:37] <linux_user400354> that command works great in ubuntu
[06:37] <arooni> can someone help me use wget to get all files at a given url?  i don't get all files, i just get some
[06:37] <Jack_Sparrow> !ati > poddo
[06:37] <linux_user400354> if you havent done it already, you should!!!
[06:37] <Cigarette> i really want to like linux.... but its really hard to do when i cant get it to work hahaha
[06:37] <lnxguit> ryan_naruto, check out http://nfs.sourceforge.net/nfs-howto/
[06:38] <lnxguit> it's really quite simple
[06:38] <Flannel> Cigarette: why are you compiling ubuntu?
[06:38] <poddo> it a riva tnt2, so it should be legacy, i looked into that
[06:38] <Flannel> Cigarette: err, what are you trying to compile, and why?
[06:38] <Cigarette> ndiswrapper to use wifi
[06:38] <UbuntuJulez> is support for WMV just pretty much in the air?
[06:38] <poddo> jack, im an ati guy myself, but this is an older commercial box tha i havnt upgraded yet
[06:38] <macgeek> does anyone here know how to uninstall dancer-ircd?
[06:38] <poddo> hey, digitalpenguin
[06:39] <Jack_Sparrow> poddo: what card?
[06:39] <HackerX_> Flannel, i just tryed that and no good
[06:39] <Jack_Sparrow> !ati > jack_sparrow
[06:39] <avis> poddo, nvidia-legacy sounds right if that is the name of the driver.  and yes that is a legacy card so -- i'd let the ubuntu documentation and hardware judgement be the judge of what to use as driver there.  just backup your xorg.conf and your safe no matter how you go.  its either -legacy or not.
[06:40] <Tsukino> My laptop's getting a fair bit warmer idling than it does in Windows. I do cat /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/info and it'd saying that throttling is off, how do I enable that?
[06:40] <Flannel> Cigarette: you might try these howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingEasyHowTo and  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware
[06:40] <Flannel> HackerX_: what error do you get?
[06:40] <poddo> riva tnt2 128, jack.  yes i looked at the documentation and it said legacy, so ill go with that
[06:40] <UbuntuJulez> !wmv

[06:40] <Cigarette> flannel, thanks
[06:40] <lnxguit> ryan_naruto, you will need nfs-common and nfs-kernel-server
[06:41] <HackerX_> Flannel, gaim-dev:
[06:41] <HackerX_>   Depends: gaim (=1:1.5.0+1.5.1cvs20051015-1ubuntu10) but 1:1.9.99.is.2.0.0+beta3-1ubuntu1 is to be installed
[06:41] <HackerX_>   Depends: gaim-data (=1:1.5.0+1.5.1cvs20051015-1ubuntu10) but 1:1.9.99.is.2.0.0+beta3-1ubuntu1 is to be installed
[06:41] <avis> i failed at compiling my own kernel.  but then who can blame me ??  make xconfig needs to be studied.  plus i dont know anything about the celeron d other than its 686 with EM64T though i'm running 32-bit.  crazy.
[06:41] <poddo> to restart x, it would be sudo startx, right?
[06:41] <HackerX_> Flannel, doesnt have the sources to get those
[06:41] <highphilosopher> Celeron... Y?
[06:42] <Tsukino> I also have the problem that I can't change the permissions or ownership of two folders where I have a couple partitions mounted.
[06:42] <avis> poddo, you can kill it with ctrl-backspace
[06:42] <shawnr_> poddo, you could crtl+alt+backspadce
[06:42] <sethk> avis, you don't need to do anything related to the celeron.  just pick it off the menu.
[06:42] <avis> celeron d
[06:42] <poddo> avis, thanks
[06:42] <avis> ok
[06:42] <HackerX_>
[06:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Tsukino: what format are the partitions?
[06:42] <Tsukino> vfat
[06:42] <sethk> avis, doesn't matter, compile for i386.  It's possibly a slight downgrade but it will certainly run.
[06:42] <Flannel> HackerX_: did you add the source repositories to your repository list?
[06:42] <avis> well i wouldn't know what else needed to change i had been following a guide with a few tips on the ubuntulinux.org website.
[06:43] <HackerX_> Flannel, what source?
[06:43] <avis> ok
[06:43] <sethk> avis, you don't really need to change anything.
[06:43] <HackerX_> Flannel, im using all that are in  there
[06:43] <digitalpenguin> poddo just had a problem
[06:43] <avis> actually i'm quite fine not having the latest kernel.  i'll just wait until the new build comes out.  its just something i had never been able to do before.
[06:43] <sababa> hi, I think I found a bug in stegdetect package, can anyone help me confirm it?
[06:43] <Tsukino> I went in and edited /etc/fstab to mount the partitions to a couple folders I have, but I even in sudo it's denying me the ability to change ownership/permissions
[06:43] <Flannel> HackerX_: hmm?  have you added the source repositories?
[06:43] <HackerX_> yeh
[06:44] <Jack_Sparrow> !diskmounter > Tsukino
[06:44] <dtts> where do programs typically install to?
[06:44] <Flannel> HackerX_: and you updated your cache after that?
[06:44] <HackerX_> yes
[06:44] <Jack_Sparrow> Tsukino: That does it for you..
[06:44] <AAA> dtts  /bin /usr/bin /sbin /usr/sbin
[06:44] <AAA> dtts  /usr/local/bin|sbin
[06:44] <arooni> can someone help me use wget to get all files at a given url?  i don't get all files, i just get some
[06:44] <sethk> dtts, from source to /usr/local
[06:44] <Flannel> HackerX_: try downloading those files by themselves, since they're apparently what are in the repositories.  You shouldnt get any problems
[06:44] <sethk> dtts, as in /usr/local/bin
[06:45] <HackerX_> where from???
[06:45] <dtts> AAA: main difference between bin and sbin?
[06:45] <AAA> super user binary
[06:45] <sethk> dtts, sbin is usuallyl system programs
[06:45] <dtts> k, thanks
[06:45] <Geoffrey2> in general, is there any real advantage to using the i686 kernel?
[06:46] <highphilosopher> Geoffrey2: yes
[06:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Tsukino: /dev/sda4 /media/sda4 vfat rw,user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000 0 0 is what I have for my vfat
[06:46] <AAA> and /usr/local is usually where most programs you compile from source go by default /usr/local/etc /usr/local/bin etc.
[06:46] <HackerX_> Flannel, where from?
[06:46] <Flannel> HackerX_: the repositories, main I imagine.
[06:46] <wasauce> hey if I have a bit of code (ethtool -s eth0 wol g) that I want run as root  at startup where should I put it?
[06:46] <AAA> Geoffrey2  if you have a PII or ++
[06:46] <UbuntuJulez> why does Totem give me an error message "subclass did not specify output size" when playing a WMV file?
[06:46] <avis> the only one i have found is that you get to use the extra cpu extensions for things like mplayer-686 :)  though i'm not a high adept of ubuntu i just use it as a primary operating system.
[06:46] <Flannel> HackerX_: http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/net/gaim
[06:46] <BrMiHi08> Anyone here ever have windows say Missing ntldr after installing grub?
[06:46] <UbuntuJulez> (when trying to resize the video)
[06:47] <Tsukino> I'm a newbie, but why are some partitions labeled sda# and others hda#? all mine are hda
[06:47] <FR500> Josh: ???
[06:47] <Flannel> Tsukino: SATA vs IDE
[06:47] <UbuntuJulez> Br, yes, but only when Linux was removed from the system
[06:47] <AAA> Tsukino  sda is generally scsi hda ide
[06:47] <Tsukino> ah, okay
[06:47] <Geoffrey2> AAA, I have a laptop with a Celeron M Processor
[06:47] <highphilosopher> Tsukino Sda SCSI, HDA IDE
[06:47] <UbuntuJulez> BrMiHi08, i mean
[06:47] <Jack_Sparrow> Tsukino: sata vs ide
[06:47] <AAA> Geoffrey2  686
[06:47] <Tsukino> makes sense now
[06:48] <BrMiHi08> UbuntuJulez-  I have ubuntu on here and it says it is missing, any ideas how to get it back on there?
[06:48] <BrMiHi08> Seems to be a MBR problem
[06:48] <wasauce> BrMiHi08: yes check these out http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/installation/19787-re-installed-grub-xp-hard-drive-now-ntldr-missi.html
[06:48] <AAA> BrMiHi08  boot to the cd and run grub
[06:48] <UbuntuJulez> BrMiHi08; are windows and ubuntu both on HDA1?
[06:48] <Tsukino> hehe, wow, I must be getting cured of Windows faster than I thought..
[06:48] <Jack_Sparrow> BrMiHi08: boot xp cd hit f8 get to command prompt... fdisk /mbr
[06:49] <wasauce> hey if I have a bit of code (ethtool -s eth0 wol g) that I want run as root  at startup where should I put it?

[06:49] <BrMiHi08> AAA- I fixed grub up so it should be worrking but I'll tryt that
[06:49] <UbuntuJulez> anyone know about the WMV resize issue in Totem (only player that seems to want to play most of my WMV files) giving me "sublcass did not specify output size" whenever i try to resize the video while playing
[06:49] <Tsukino> I just decided to sudo nano my /etc/fstab instead of using gksudo sedit
[06:49] <poddo> FTW
[06:49] <poddo> oops, wrong chan
[06:49] <Flannel> Tsukino: that's fine.  editors are editors ;)
[06:49] <UbuntuJulez> mplayer will play them too but gives me some weird "no xvideo support" error
[06:49] <BrMiHi08> Ubuntujulez- ubuntu is on hdb, and windows is on hda
[06:49] <BrMiHi08> Jack_Sparrow- I can get by with formatting the MBR?
[06:50] <BrMiHi08> btw grub is on hdb
[06:50] <ubuntu> I keep getting this message when I try to log on, and I think it is because the disk is full. "GDM could not open your authorization file. This could mean that you are out of disk space or that your home directory could not be opened for writing. In any case, is not possible to log in. Please contact your system administrator." Is there anyway I can clear the disk using a live cd?
[06:50] <digitalpenguin> can any one tell me what driver i would need for this Silicon Integrated Systems (SiS) 65x/M650/740 PCI/AGP VGA Display Adapter
[06:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Tsukino: IT will not fix grub but it will get your window install back so you can start fresh
[06:50] <AAA> wasauce  make a file named ethtool and put it in /etc/init.d/ chmod it a+x then run update-rc.d -f ethtool defaults
[06:50] <poddo> i wish my parents were open minded enough to use linux, my house would be totally linux-fied
[06:50] <highphilosopher> ubuntu: just log in to terminal and delete some files.
[06:50] <Tsukino> Oh, I have no problem booting Windows
[06:51] <avis> my dad *barely* gets by using windows xp.  i feel so bad for him.
[06:51] <wasauce> AAA: K will try that... thanks
[06:51] <avis> he can use office though much better than i can :/
[06:51] <AAA> wasauce  should work fine, let me know
[06:51] <poddo> avis, my dad too.  well, except for the office part
[06:52] <avis> poddo, its ok.. can't force anyone to do or learn anything they either can't or wont.
[06:52] <Tsukino> I just had a couple extra partitions to transfer between XP and Ubuntu, and root power wasn't letting me alter permissions. Testing the extra options in /etc/fstab now though
[06:52] <poddo> yeah i kno
[06:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Tsukino: Sorry, sent to wrong person..

[06:53] <davegoodson> hi, ive just installed ubuntu again, and now its added a grub boot to my other hard disk, which isn't what i really wanted. is there any way of making my XP disk the default os to boot from with grub?
[06:54] <digitalpenguin> i should start charging him
[06:54] <arooni> hello?
[06:54] <arooni> any help with wget ?
[06:54] <AAA> Geoffrey2  I don't use Synapitc, but you want to install the kernel-image-`uname -r`-686 package (or something close to that)
[06:54] <Flannel> HackerX_: nope, 2.12-1
[06:54] <poddo> digitalpenguin, yeah.  80 bucks a pop
[06:54] <digitalpenguin> and in my time of fixing his broken crap i havent found any pron yet
[06:54] <digitalpenguin> thank god
[06:54] <Flannel> davegoodson: changing one line in grub will do it!
[06:54] <poddo> haha
[06:54] <avis> i could never charge my father for computer work.  he could offer me to build his computer from scratch but our family has a symbiotic relationship.  we all need each other.
[06:54] <davegoodson> Flannel: how do i do it? :)
[06:54] <Jack_Sparrow> digitalpenguin: set him up a dual boot with Kubuntu and the redmond theme.  I did it for my father in law... 82   and he never realized it was linux.
[06:54] <digitalpenguin> but ya anyone have a place i can get the drivers for Silicon Integrated Systems (SiS) 65x/M650/740 PCI/AGP VGA Display Adapter
[06:55] <digitalpenguin> lawl jack_sparrow
[06:55] <poddo> jack_sparrow,  thats cuz hes 82 XD
[06:55] <Jack_Sparrow> !sis
[06:55] <ubotu> I know nothing about sis - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:55] <AAA> digitalpenguin  ubuntu should autodetect that
[06:55] <HackerX_> Flannel, ok well this laptop is going threw a window real soon. i had to reinstall and i had it b4 someone game me a apt-get command that fixed everything but i cant figure out what it was
[06:55] <AAA> mmmm apt-get
[06:55] <Flannel> davegoodson: edit your grub menu list, (gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.list) and change the default value (it is probably 0, you'll want to change it to the menu item that corresponds to windows, probably 2, maybe not)
[06:55] <Jack_Sparrow> poddo Retired electrical engineer.. still pretty sharp.. Just thought I tweaked the graphics.
[06:55] <poddo> digitalpenguin  vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:56] <poddo> jack_sparrow, ah, sorry to have misjudged him
[06:56] <Jack_Sparrow> np.. he is cool
[06:56] <Flannel> HackerX_: you'll have to look at other repositories, GAIM might have a repository for it.  If it's a dependency of some package you got, then I imagine itll be getable where you got that package
[06:56] <Jack_Sparrow> I even changed the Kmenu icon to the XP start
[06:56] <davegoodson> Flannel: Nothing is in that file
[06:57] <Flannel> davegoodson: oh, sorry.  no i in list.  menu.lst
[06:57] <macgeek> how do I create a user in the CLI?
[06:57] <digitalpenguin> thanks AAA
[06:57] <digitalpenguin> and poddo
[06:58] <poddo> no prob brah
[06:58] <avis> macgeek, adduser
[06:58] <digitalpenguin> im not your brah brah

[06:58] <axl000> hi all
[06:58] <sethk> macgeek, useradd
[06:58] <digitalpenguin> HI
[06:58] <sidlinux> has anyone been able to get the make program to work on dapper drake?  keep getting errors
[06:58] <axl000> please help me whit a sound problem on dapper
[06:59] <linux_user400354> digitalpenguin, this command should help you.    sudo sed -i 's/id:5:initdefault:/id:6:initdefault:/' /etc/inittab && sudo reboot
[06:59] <nocarrier> sidlinux: make? use it everyday.... what's the problem?
[06:59] <Geoffrey2> hmm, according to this one poster, the 686 kernel can make laptops overheat....hmmm, maybe I'd better stick with the 386 kernel
[06:59] <nomin> I just installed amarok on dapper and it won't play anything.  I installed the arts engine to see if it would work then, and it's not.  Any suggestions?
[06:59] <axl000> anyone please help me whit a sound problem on dapper
[07:00] <davegoodson> Flannel: i'm not sure on what to change, i cant see anything to do with default
[07:00] <arooni> folks wget -l 1 -r -k hostname.com does *not* give all images located at a specific url.... what am i doing wrong?
[07:00] <nomin> axl1000: do you get any sound at all?
[07:00] <arooni> and how can i launch files from the command line?
[07:00] <axl000> no
[07:00] <axl000> nothing
[07:00] <arooni> i.e. like html files
[07:00] <davegoodson> ## default grub root device
[07:00] <davegoodson> ## e.g. groot=(hd0,0)
[07:00] <davegoodson> # groot=(hd1,0)
[07:00] <Flannel> davegoodson: near the top, there should be a line, "default"
[07:00] <digitalpenguin> hey linux_user400354 check your PM
[07:00] <Flannel> davegoodson: dont paste.  use pastebin
[07:01] <Flannel> !paste
[07:01] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[07:01] <nomin> !audio
[07:01] <ubotu> I know nothing about audio - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:01] <linux_user400354> i dont have a PM
[07:01] <davegoodson> ah sorry lol
[07:01] <nocarrier> arooni: html use lynx or links...
[07:01] <nomin> !sound
[07:01] <ubotu> If sound is not working, first try system -> prefrences -> multimedia system selector change it to alsa. If you still have problems then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[07:01] <davegoodson> Flannel: is that the one though?
[07:01] <arooni> nocarrier: please elaborate
[07:01] <arooni> and how can i launch a file with the default program taht is supposed to open it
[07:01] <arooni> from the command line
[07:01] <Flannel> davegoodson: yeah, paste that file
[07:01] <nocarrier> arooni: ah, like mime types from the shell...
[07:02] <sidlinux> i was trying to install a driver using make.  i was getting some path error like /lib/modules/2.6.15-26-686/build: No such file or directory.
[07:02] <digitalpenguin> o well linux i was asking what does that command do
[07:02] <arooni> nocarrier: well right now i think that i have to navigate to that direcotry and open it with firefox
[07:02] <axl000> but ubuntu seems to recognize my sound card
[07:02] <wasauce> AAA: seems to have worked great... your help is much appreciated
[07:02] <arooni> how do i just open a given file with whatever program is assigned to opne it
[07:02] <bodaciousb> when i boot my ubuntu computer, using the newest version of ubuntu i get an error saying "failed to initialize HAL" when X starts up... anyone know how i can fix this?
[07:03] <nocarrier> sidlinux: you need to install the kernel keaders
[07:03] <avis> philips made a soundcard in 1999 called the seismic edge.  back then there were no linux drivers for it.  i did a google search to see what i could come up with on dapper.  i believe its unsupported.  like philips never released the specs of the cards.  you can lspci it i know that.  but i thought linux people would reverse engineer such things to make them work ?  or does that not work with patented hardware ?
[07:03] <damo22> whats the minimum amount of memory required  for xubuntu?
[07:03] <davegoodson> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19845
[07:03] <nocarrier> arooni: heh... well, I know you can do it, I just never have... you are talking from a console, not from X, correct?
[07:03] <arooni> folks how do i open a filie from the command line?
[07:03] <arooni> yes
[07:03] <avis> damo22 i'd say about 192megs
[07:03] <arooni> nocarrier: yes
[07:03] <davegoodson> Flannel: Would it be possible to have Windows at the start and then ubuntu on the bottom?
[07:03] <nocarrier> arooni: k... gimme a sec...
[07:04] <digitalpenguin> linux_user what was that command for
[07:04] <Flannel> davegoodson: sure, just swap them around.  But you can just as easily change the default menu item
[07:04] <sidlinux> nocarrier: I was trying to install a driver and it was only available through running this make program.  whenever I execute it, I get something like /lib/modules/2.6.15-26-686/build: No such file or directory.
[07:04] <avis> arooni you want a console or terminal editor that is simple ?  try nano
[07:04] <davegoodson> Flannel: just to the hard disk name?
[07:04] <UbuntuJulez> !wine
[07:04] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[07:05] <Flannel> davegoodson: er, what?
[07:05] <nomin> !amarok
[07:05] <ubotu> amarok is an audio player for Linux with an intuitive interface. The latest version is 1.4.1 and packages are available for Kubuntu at: http://kubuntu.org/announcements/amarok-1.4.1.php
[07:05] <nocarrier> sidlinux: yea, you need to install the kernel headers for your current kernel...
[07:05] <arooni> avis: i want the effect of double clicking a file and it opening with whatever program is assigned to handle it
[07:05] <arooni> from teh command line
[07:05] <arooni> surely its cant be that hard
[07:05] <avis> arooni gksudo <executable>
[07:05] <arooni> perfect
[07:05] <sidlinux> nocarrier: how do you know what kernel are you using?
[07:05] <arooni> thanks
[07:05] <poddo> is XGL an addon to wahtever desktop you have or is it like a replacement for GNOME and KDE
[07:05] <damo22> what is the boot option for booting into console from a live cd
[07:06] <digitalpenguin> so anyone have time to tell me how to get XGL working on ubuntu
[07:06] <Flannel> digitalpenguin: #ubuntu-xgl for XGL related questions
[07:06] <nomin> !amarok sound
[07:06] <ubotu> I know nothing about amarok sound - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:06] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell digitalpenguin about xgl
[07:06] <digitalpenguin> thanks flannel
[07:06] <Flannel> digitalpenguin: they'll have factoids/links in the topic
[07:06] <nocarrier> sidlinux: uname -r
[07:07] <avis> poddo its an overlay to the X server which gives you graphical enhancements
[07:07] <Elko> xgl, heh, even I could figure that one out
[07:07] <nocarrier> arooni: you said from a console...
[07:07] <avis> and workspace enhancements and various effects. .
[07:07] <poddo> cool, thanks avis
[07:07] <arooni> i thoguth console == terminal
[07:07] <arooni> maybe im wrong
[07:07] <arooni> so i run wget -m sitename.com and it doesnt look the same
[07:08] <sidlinux> nocarrier: so i install the kernel headers for 2.6.15-26-686 since that was the output of the uname -r command.
[07:08] <nocarrier> arooni: no, I thought you meant like being able to type ./index.html from the prompt and it automatically opens lynx
[07:08] <arooni> ahh
[07:08] <keef3po> anyone know how to add write access to the /media/windows/ mount?
[07:08] <nocarrier> keef3po: i wouldn't
[07:08] <Tsukino> Okay. I have /d as the directory where my first partition. If I run Nautilus under gksudo and try to change the privileges to allow everyone to write to the folder, it instantly unchecks that box as soon as I click it
[07:08] <avis> keef3po, unless its fat32 you should not try.
[07:08] <nocarrier> keef3po: or that ;)
[07:08] <Tsukino> Yet I can make another folder and alter its privileges just fine.
[07:09] <keef3po> ntfs... guess I'll keep my hands off  ;)
[07:09] <avis> keef3po, you can read all you want tho :)
[07:09] <damo22> is it possible to install server mode ubuntu with 64mb ram until i upgrade ram
[07:10] <Munchkinguy> Are there any good Scrabble-type games for Ubuntu (aside from the text-based one in the universe repository)?
[07:10] <davegoodson> Flannel: please look at this, i dont understand what i should set default to: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19845
[07:10] <edgy> Hi, which one do you prefer: To have a book on chm or pdf? why? to make this question relavent it's a linux book ;)
[07:10] <nocarrier> that is a good question though... without the #!/bin/sh or perl at the top of a script, is there any way to "map" the extension to a default program?
[07:10] <Munchkinguy> edgy: book
[07:10] <MoNkUnClE> anyone know something about vmware server console????
[07:11] <avis> i prefer pdf because its not exclusive to windows.. why ?  i thought chf was a proprietary windows format.
[07:11] <avis> chm
[07:11] <nocarrier> pdf
[07:12] <edgy> avis: but pdf is also a proprietary adobe format
[07:12] <edgy> nocarrier: why?
[07:12] <nocarrier> edgy: not anymore...
[07:12] <damo22> is there a dapper cd release that has text mode install?
[07:12] <Munchkinguy> Oh I see, I read the question wrong. I though the choice was between pdf or book
[07:12] <nocarrier> edgy: it was created by adobe, but the format is open...
[07:12] <orbin> damo22: grab the alternative install iso
[07:12] <damo22> okay thanks
[07:12] <avis> well adobe must let people use pdf on linux.  we can all read pdf.  we cannot read chm on linux.  at least -- not in the common way.
[07:13] <ltmon> Looking for help... I'm having wireless issues: both with networkmanager and standard networking (i.e. iwconfig) I can't get an IP address.  I can connect see the wireless AP and connect no problem, but DHCPDISCOVER just times out.  The same laptop works fine wired, and this laptop I'm using right now works fine on wireless with the same network settings.  This behaviour seemed to start after I resumed from suspend 2 ram last.  Thanks.
[07:13] <lophyte> avis: actually there's xCHM :)
[07:13] <nocarrier> edgy: because just for example, finding a good chm reader for a mac is hard... finding a pdf reader is basic
[07:13] <avis> :o
[07:13] <edgy> nocarrier, avis: chm is also open I think I can use kchmviewer in ubuntu for example
[07:13] <avis> oh..
[07:13] <avis> heh
[07:14] <lophyte> but that's probably because someone reverse engineered the format
[07:14] <edgy> nocarrier: don't know about macs but in linux it's widely available
[07:14] <nocarrier> edgy: well, you can use any format you wish, but if it was me, and I had a choice between two dox, i would choose the pdf because i wouldn't have to go out and find something to read it
[07:14] <nocarrier> edgy: that was just an example
[07:14] <jared> Hey guys
[07:14] <mdious> woo hoo new version of opera lol....
[07:15] <nocarrier> opera? bah...
[07:15] <jared> I just got the dist-upgrade done...now i want to repartition my external hd, seeing as its ntfs rigth now
[07:15] <jared> i opened gparted and it wont let me so anything with it
[07:15] <shadeofgrey> mc; hey
[07:15] <avis> is it mounted jared ?
[07:15] <edgy> nocarrier: your point is valid. one can also argue in favor of chm because it's size is much smaller
[07:15] <jared> i believe so
[07:15] <avis> ok
[07:16] <edgy> jared: you open it with sudo?
[07:16] <jared> mhmm
[07:16] <jared> sudo gparted
[07:16] <nomin> X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 169  <[07:16] <mdious> nocarier> :)
[07:16] <avis> gparted shows up as a gui app for me
[07:16] <jared> it is
[07:16] <avis> it should detect /dev/sdX and you should be able to alter it in the X environment.
[07:17] <Tsukino> =/ So I make a test directory and set its privileges so everyone can write to it. Once I mount the partition to /test it removes the write privileges from it
[07:17] <edgy> nomin: that BadDevice is related to synpatic device in your xorg file I guess and has nothing to do with your sound problem
[07:17] <jared> any ideas avis or edgy
[07:17] <nomin> amarok is playing a streaming internet radio station, but I don't hear it.
[07:17] <avis> if its mounted, jared, gparted should be able to see it i would think ?
[07:17] <jared> i dont' have permissions to write, what is the file i can edit to add them
[07:17] <jared> i do see it
[07:17] <Waterbou> no one is herecould I get some help
[07:18] <Waterbou> gah
[07:18] <jared> but i right click on the partition and wont let me do anything to it
[07:18] <Waterbou> rather could I get some help
[07:18] <avis> i have no idea jared.
[07:18] <avis> whats going on Waterbou ?
[07:18] <Madpilot> Waterbou, it would help if you asked an actual question first - there's lots of people here
[07:18] <edgy> jared: may be you can try booting from the CD instead of the HD and try
[07:18] <nomin> actually, it's downloading it, put the equalizers aren't doing anything.
[07:18] <Waterbou> I'm installing ubuntu and it says starting up the partitioner then I am put to a command prompt
[07:18] <nomin> *but the
[07:19] <Waterbou> And I have no idea what to do
[07:19] <keef3po> Waterbou, did the LiveCD boot into the Gnome GUI?
[07:20] <avis> Waterbou, i've never been dumped to a command prompt unless i had told the installer to do so in which case i switched terminals so i think either something is voodoo with your setup or i gotta leave that one to the experts.
[07:20] <Waterbou> No keef
[07:20] <Waterbou> I am installing it
[07:20] <Waterbou> It just put me into a command prompt
[07:21] <tabman> there is no package for netbeans ?
[07:21] <Tsukino> my terminal window always opens at a certain size, is there a command to add to make it wider when it opens?
[07:21] <nomin> someone else is having the same problem with Amarok that I am:  http://forums.suselinuxsupport.de/index.php?showtopic=40707
[07:21] <keef3po> WB, install from the LiveCD or the alternate .iso?
[07:21] <nomin> maybe I should add a repo and install the latest amarok
[07:22] <Waterbou> what live CD
[07:22] <AAA> libbsf-java ?
[07:22] <Waterbou> I have the gnoppix LiveCD and I would like to install that but I am unsure how
[07:22] <avallach> I have a nvidia geforce4 mx 420 (nv17s) in my Dapper box - everything worked great with the nvidia driver for a long time but a couple weeks ago it started locking up (usually when a screensaver came on), i reverted to the nv driver & no lockups...anybody know why nvidia stopped working?
[07:22] <AAA> avallach  bad karma? hehe check /var/log/Xorg.*.log
[07:22] <avallach> i think that only runs from a live cd
[07:23] <mrPolite> im trying to help my neighbor install dapper, however im running into a problem. he has one hard drive, 80gigs of ntfs goodness its has about 6 gigd worth of ms windows and nothing else. im trying to create a partition using the ubuntu installer and then gparted but can not resize the ntfs partition. the drive is listed as hda1, but when i check the terminal after gparted errors out, i says it could not mount /dev/hdd1 or /dev/hdc1 depending
[07:23] <avis> avallach, from what i've learned tonight you might need the nvidia-legacy driver instead.  it might be better than nv.
[07:23] <nomin> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-26308.html
[07:23] <keef3po> wb, okay... when you download the .iso, it's typically a liveCD with an install icon on the desktop
[07:23] <tabman> netbeans & Ubuntu ?
[07:23] <AAA> tabman  libbsf-java
[07:23] <avallach> avis: really?  my card is not listed as one that needs the legacy driver....i thought it was just for old cards.
[07:24] <AAA> tabman  apt-cache search net beans
[07:24] <keef3po> however, there is an alternate .iso that installs without booting into a Live session
[07:24] <avis> avallach, i appologize but i had not run into that card for a very long time.
[07:24] <avallach> avis: is there a howto or something for installing the legacy driver?
[07:24] <mdious> I'm off, cya everyone.
[07:24] <AAA> Cigarette  what error
[07:24] <avis> avallach, it should come with the nvidia-glx.  if nvidia does not work, seems like next best choice.
[07:25] <avallach> avis: do i just put nvidia-legacy in my xorg.conf then?  (as opposed to nv or nvidia)
[07:25] <avis> yes
[07:25] <avis> and always make a backup first
[07:25] <Cigarette> when i run ndiswrapper -m i get this "modprobe config already contains alias directive"
[07:25] <Waterbou> I was told to put it onto a CD usingNero, which I DID but.  So based on my results I am guessing I got the second one you are talking about?
[07:25] <avallach> cool ill try it thanks
[07:25] <avis> i hope it works ?
[07:25] <avallach> avis: yea i learned that the hard way:)
[07:25] <avis> yeh :)
[07:25] <u221e> I'm trying to get 3d accelleration on a machine with a voodoo3 card... I have libglide3 and mesa dri libs so. How ever anything other then glxgears and some screensavers crash. TuxRacer gets to title screen but then crashes.
[07:25] <Cigarette> AAA, did you catch that?
[07:25] <keef3po> not necessarily... did you make a data disk or burn an image from Nero?
[07:26] <u221e> I noticed alot of other people seems to have the same problem but I can't find a fix.
[07:26] <tabman> AAA: is this the IDE netbeans ?
[07:26] <AAA> Cigarette  check out /etc/modules and see if that is list, if it is remove it and the update-modules
[07:26] <Waterbou> I burned an image
[07:26] <AAA> Cigarette  then try again
[07:26] <avis> i find that funny someone had a tnt2 earlier and that is the card i had used many years ago learning on linux and someone was going to use XGL with that ?  that is so -- uhm, how do you say ----- odd.
[07:26] <AAA> tabman  no idea, just what a searched the repos for
[07:26] <keef3po> okay, if it is the alternate install, it should take you through the install process without dumping you into the console
[07:26] <Cigarette> AAA, i'm a total newbie when it comes to ndiswrapper. can you explain what you said?
[07:26] <AAA> tabman  you can apt-cache show that pkg
[07:27] <tabman> AAA: no its not its not net beans
[07:27] <u221e> Any ideas?
[07:27] <axl000> how can i know which alsa module im using??
[07:27] <AAA> Cigarette  you'll have to hold, I have to put the kids to bed now
[07:27] <Cigarette> AAA, ok thanks
[07:27] <AAA> tabman  sorry, that was my best guess
[07:27] <avis> u221e, i have no ideas but i'm scrolling up and am on it
[07:27] <Waterbou> It took me through the install then said starting up the partitioner then I am at the command prompt like thing
[07:27] <axl000> how can i know which alsa module im using??
[07:28] <keef3po> did you choose to partition your drive manually?
[07:28] <Waterbou> no
[07:28] <Waterbou> it just did it
[07:28] <avis> u221e, no i have no ideas i have only used nvidia cards and they have been kind enough to put precompiled binaries in the repos for us.
[07:28] <keef3po> weird
[07:28] <Waterbou> How would I partition my drive manually since it appears I will have to
[07:28] <keef3po> someone else will have to pick that one up
[07:29] <keef3po> but just for kicks, type, "startx"
[07:29] <nomin> ahh, installing libxine-extracodecs solved my amarok sound problem

[07:29] <QJ> XP
[07:29] <Tsukino> Well, that took long enough to fix.
[07:29] <EpP> hey... how do i remove gnome once ive gotten Kubuntu?
[07:29] <Waterbou> startx did nothing
[07:30] <Tsukino> Not sure how I remedied it, since I was doing the same thing over, but I got the folders to have the right privileges now.
[07:30] <u221e> avis, the tdfx driver is in the repo as well. I think it's somehow broken though
[07:30] <QJ> So, how can I get it back up and working?
[07:30] <Tsukino> Thanks for the help on that one guys.
[07:30] <Tsukino> =/ Now, does anyone else here have experience with acpi?
[07:30] <EpP> how do i remove kubuntu once i have installed it?
[07:30] <keef3po> sorry... someone else will have to pick this one up... were it me, I'd download the Ubuntu LiveCD and see if that boots
[07:30] <keef3po> good luck

[07:39] <Cigarette> how can i find my root password if i have forgotten it?
[07:39] <Cigarette> !root
[07:39] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[07:39] <Madpilot> Cigarette, there is no root password - have you forgotten your own pw?
[07:40] <Cigarette> no
[07:40] <Cigarette> i wanted to use su - root
[07:40] <mheath> jason, yes, I found some success with my Broadcom 4318
[07:40] <fyrestrtr> Cigarette: did you forcefully set the root password?
[07:40] <jason> mheath , can you give me a hand here
[07:40] <nocarrier> fyrestrtr: i know it involves --purge, but i don't remember the exact command
[07:40] <Cigarette> no, how can i do that
[07:40] <Cigarette> ?
[07:40] <nocarrier> <---- on a BCM4318 as we speak
[07:40] <fyrestrtr> Cigarette: don't -- use sudo.
[07:40] <jason> it's the 4319
[07:41] <Cigarette> its just irritating to have to type my pass all the time
[07:41] <nocarrier> jason: ndiswrapper
[07:41] <mheath> jason, take a look at the wiki. (hmm, seems to be down now...)
[07:41] <Madpilot> Cigarette, do 'sudo -i', then
[07:41] <Cigarette> thanks
[07:41] <fyrestrtr> nocarrier: it doesn't have to do with --purge because the removal never succeeds. --purge is just to remove configuration files.
[07:41] <mheath> jason, theres an excellent tutorial on the ubuntu wiki about setting broadcom wireless cards in dapper
[07:41] <jason> nocarrier, I used ndiswrapper and went through a whole ordeal
[07:41] <mheath> jason, including how to use the new native drivers.
[07:42] <jason> thanks mheath, looks like the wiki's down now :(
[07:42] <lyy> hello
[07:42] <nocarrier> jason: using it now... works like a champ
[07:43] <lyy> i'm looking for a drawing program for my little sister. what do you guys suggest?
[07:43] <nocarrier> lyy: gimp
[07:43] <Madpilot> lyy, Tuxpaint is nice and simple
[07:43] <QJ> GIMP.
[07:43] <Madpilot> the GIMP is excellent, but not simple
[07:43] <nocarrier> she'll be doing graphics design in no time
[07:43] <plhardy> tuxpaint
[07:43] <nocarrier> hehe
[07:43] <QJ> True
[07:44] <lyy> has to be simple
[07:44] <lyy> she's only 4 years old
[07:44] <Madpilot> lyy, or Inkscape - it's a powerful app, but it's got an excellent interface
[07:44] <lyy> how hard is it to install?
[07:44] <Kr0ntab> yeah check tuxpaint
[07:44] <Madpilot> lyy, easy to install
[07:44] <Madpilot> !info tuxpaint
[07:44] <ubotu> tuxpaint: A paint program for young children. In repository main, is optional. Version 1:0.9.15b-1ubuntu4 (dapper), package size 112 kB, installed size 328 kB

[07:44] <nocarrier> lyy: let her draw on your monitor with a crayon...
[07:44] <lyy> powerful..hmm..i don't think she cares how powerful it is
[07:44] <Madpilot> just install tuxpaint thru Add/Remove Apps
[07:44] <lyy> Madpilot: perfect
[07:44] <lyy> i'll do that
[07:45] <lyy> i just noticed that ubuntu has a bigger community then fedora
[07:45] <mrPolite> lyy my daughter uses tux paint when she wants to be silly, and inkscape when she wants to make something "for" someonw
[07:45] <Angela> inkscape is great :)
[07:45] <QJ> Anyways, How do I find my USB Drive?
[07:46] <lyy> i think i'll use inkscape myself
[07:46] <lyy> and she can use tuxpaint
[07:46] <Angela> I love the bleeding edge version.... the color pallets really make inkscape nice now :)
[07:46] <QJ> lscpi just shows the USB Controller -/
[07:46] <lyy> is there a windows inkscape?
[07:46] <Angela> yea, window and linux inkscape
[07:46] <Angela> and source
[07:46] <lyy> sweet
[07:46] <Madpilot> lyy, there's also gpaint, which is a lot like MS Paint
[07:46] <lyy> ah
[07:47] <lyy> she knows mspaint
[07:47] <plhardy> 4 years and already in the wrong way...

[07:51] <nedss> nocarrier, why would you modprobe wlan0?  usually you modprobe modules, right...

[08:07] <Gumby> I'm trying to compile ndiswrapper on amd64 (kubuntu) and its telling me that I dont have a valid /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build directory.  Ive installed matching kernel headers for my kernel which I think is all I did in regular ubuntu.  Anyone have any idea what I might have done wrong?
[08:07] <sotired> when i plug in my wireles card in the live cd environment it works, however when i install, it will not work, whats worse is once i plug it in ubuntu will not run any porgrams, inluding network config and terminal
[08:07] <Cigarette> EpP, i dont know... I was just kinda giving the advice of a newbie...
[08:07] <jason> ok that's it I'm reinstalling. this is absurdly complicated
[08:07] <kedarguru> so why does stuff move around on the panels?
[08:07] <EpP> Cigarette, k
[08:07] <kedarguru> when I restart or log back in, things shift around
[08:08] <Cigarette> nocarrier, it says the options like -i, -d, -e, -l, -m

[08:13] <Cigarette> nocarrier, it shows wlan0 now
[08:13] <jon_> ah, i tried to use the repos before updating

[08:14] <Cigarette> i got my ap's SSID
[08:14] <Cigarette> and info
[08:14] <The|Borg> from what i know belkin wouldent know what linux is even if microsoft died and linus bit them in the ass

[08:14] <nocarrier> ha
[08:14] <Cigarette> neither. i have no security risks here

[08:16] <Cigarette> cool. it works with Xfce?
[08:16] <khaije1> nocarrier: what does the "*" indicate?

[08:24] <nocarrier> hmm... on the working computer, type route
[08:25] <Cigarette> ah. i was off by a digit
[08:25] <nocarrier> jason: then you are not using ndiswrapper... the 4319 does NOT work with the bcm43xx driver
[08:25] <Cigarette> its .0 for the gateway
[08:25] <gdb> alienseer23: mount what?  a parition?  the command is "mount"
[08:25] <AAA> Cigarette  what!
[08:25] <nocarrier> Cigarette: no.... .0 represents a network
[08:25] <AAA> that is a network address
[08:25] <Cigarette> um.....
[08:26] <jason> nocarrier, which driver do I need?
[08:26] <AAA> .255 broadcast
[08:26] <Cigarette> wait no.... gateway is .1
[08:26] <AAA> .1-244 ip's
[08:26] <AAA> yeah
[08:26] <Cigarette> ok...

[08:27] <AAA> I bet you have another device (eth0) hosing your routing table
[08:27] <nocarrier> AAA... no offense, but please don't confuse...
[08:28] <Tonren> Hey guys, I'm trying to install Dapper from a ShipIt CD, and it errors out with "Buffer I/O Error on Device HDC, logical block ..." before I even get to the Ubuntu Welcome Screen where I can change boot settings
[08:28] <nocarrier> Cigarette: so your IP needs to be <IP_ADDRESS> not <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:28] <nocarrier> correct?
[08:28] <Cigarette> no... its 2.101
[08:28] <nocarrier> jason: i will give you mine that works

[08:30] <Tonren> Guys, I'm looking at it more, and I think the welcome screen where you can select Check Disk for Errors, etc. is screwing up.. it's all random colors.  What could be causing that?
[08:30] <Cigarette> yea i can ping that
[08:30] <nocarrier> ok, what are your DNS servers then?
[08:30] <AAA> Cigarette  can you ping google.com or <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[08:30] <nocarrier> you need to echo those to your /etc/resolv.conf
[08:30] <steveO_> DNS servers -> /etc/resolv.conf
[08:30] <Cigarette> yea on the computer that works
[08:31] <alienseer23> nothing is happening when I try to mount?
[08:31] <AAA> Cigarette  the name or the IP?
[08:31] <nocarrier> Cigarette: can you ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:31] <nocarrier> ?
[08:31] <alienseer23> is there a way to reset mount points? would that help me?
[08:31] <nocarrier> I love how people just jump in when you have everything under control....
[08:31] <AAA> yeah, they are right. your resolv.conf is bad
[08:31] <valehru> Is there a notification list around that lets you know when the Nvidia drivers are updated?
[08:31] <AAA> nocarrier  boo
[08:32] <nocarrier> I got his wlan up and running, and when that gets all done, THEN everyone perks up...
[08:32] <AAA> nocarrier  don't worry, you still r00l
[08:32] <Cigarette> i can ping the ip's but not google.com
[08:32] <AAA> Cigarette  then fix your resov.conf like everyone says

[08:33] <Cigarette> ok

[08:33] <jason> are you going to dcc send it?
[08:33] <nocarrier> jason: yea... gotta compress it really quick
[08:34] <Tonren> Hey guys, the welcome screen on my live CD is garbled... what can I do to fix it?
[08:34] <Cigarette> thats what i wanted in the first place... dhcp to work
[08:35] <AAA> nocarrier  wlan0 wasn't even in that route -n he pasted. but he could still ping outside IP's? hrm.
[08:35] <nocarrier> Cigarette: hehe.. like I said it's late
[08:35] <Cigarette> ping google.com works now
[08:35] <nocarrier> Cigarette: congrats

[08:36] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted  -  Formatting partitions: see the manual page for mkfs ("man mkfs")  -  Mounting partitions in Gnome: System -> Administration -> Disks

[08:36] <nocarrier> jason: k

[08:37] <AAA> Cigarette  you pasted your routing table, it did not include wlan0
[08:37] <AAA>  /scrollback
[08:37] <Cigarette> that was from the computer that worked... thats what you asked for
[08:38] <Cigarette> cant paste from a computer with no internet hahahaha
[08:38] <Tonren> Hey guys, I'm trying to install Dapper from a ShipIt CD, and it errors out with "Buffer I/O Error on Device HDC, logical block ..." after I boot, even with noapic nolapic
[08:38] <AAA> Cigarette  I do that all the time
[08:38] <Cigarette> .........how?
[08:38] <Cigarette> lol
[08:38] <AAA> LAN + screen
[08:39] <dibblego> what is "user mode" linux that is used on linode.com ?
[08:39] <Cigarette> oh wait... so.. im not gonna have to go through all this again when i restart my computer am i?
[08:39] <Cigarette> cuz i'd rather smash the computer
[08:39] <Cigarette> with a big hammer
[08:39] <AAA> Cigarette  /etc/network/interfaces is the file all that goes in
[08:40] <Cigarette> do i need to configure ndiswrapper to start automatically?
[08:40] <nocarrier> Cigarette: no
[08:40] <Cigarette> k
[08:40] <AAA> Cigarette  you need the modules in /etc/modules
[08:40] <nocarrier> Cigarette: but you do need wifi-radar
[08:40] <AAA> wavemon
[08:40] <nocarrier> AAA: already there
[08:41] <nocarrier> jason: you there? dcc is not autoaccepting
[08:41] <Cigarette> nocarrier, i'm getting that like... now
[08:41] <nocarrier> sweet
[08:41] <AAA> Cigarette  you should look at your interfaces file cause if it ain't right, in will not auto start
[08:41] <Tonren> Hey guys, the welcome screen on my live CD is garbled... what can I do to fix it?
[08:42] <AAA> you set wlan0 to auto with your wireless-essid and wireless-key ?
[08:42] <nocarrier> AAA: no key
[08:42] <Cigarette> i think i set it to auto, how can i check?
[08:42] <AAA> Cigarette  for the third time /etc/network/interfaces
[08:43] <Cigarette> lol
[08:43] <Cigarette> thanks im slow
[08:43] <avallach> is it possible for a video card to go bad, but only have issues with the nvidia driver, and work fine with the nv driver?  cuz im running out of ideas here.
[08:45] <jon_> i cant get the themes i dl to install
[08:45] <AAA> avallach  it is always hardware when you run out of ideas ;(
[08:45] <digitalpenguin> where do i get the redhat-cluster-suite and the system-config-cluster
[08:45] <Cigarette> there is nothing there about wlan0
[08:45] <Cigarette> in interfaces
[08:45] <AAA> Cigarette  don't take my word for it, but if you reboot now, your device will not auto connect
[08:45] <jon_> it says the file format is invalid
[08:45] <Cigarette> i figured
[08:45] <Cigarette> AAA, how can i set it up to autoconnect?
[08:46] <AAA> Cigarette  basically copy the eth0 lines, change eth0 to wlan0 and change the IP and add wireless-essid foo after it and save
[08:46] <AAA> Cigarette  and append wlan0 after eth0 on the auto line
[08:46] <AAA> Cigarette  then ifconfig wlan0 up
[08:47] <AAA> Cigarette  you can add fancy maping to ifup wlan0 (way slicker than the fc3 way) but you don't have to
[08:47] <Tonren> Hey guys, I'm trying to install Dapper from a ShipIt CD, and it errors out with "Buffer I/O Error on Device HDC, logical block ..." after I boot, even with noapic nolapic
[08:47] <digitalpenguin> where may I aquire the redhat-cluster-suite and the system-config-cluster
[08:48] <Cigarette> AAA, i can barely follow what you've told me. i'm very new to linux...
[08:56] <AAA> Cigarette  paste your /etc/network/interfaces file to the paste-bin
[08:56] <AAA> Cigarette  I will tell you what to change
[08:56] <Cigarette> ok
[08:56] <Tonren> Hasn't ANYONE heard of this error before?
[08:56] <Cigarette> its pasted
[08:56] <Skoebidoe> hello
[08:56] <minerale|away> how can I count the lines in an output ?
[08:56] <fork> is ubuntu's hardware detection better then that of debian's?
[08:56] <AAA> minerale|away  cat /foo | wc -l
[08:56] <minerale|away> thanks

[09:01] <AAA> YoussefAssad  ubuntu _IS_ debian
[09:02] <hawkaloogie> yeah, gdesklets is horribly mismanaged
[09:02] <AAA> hawkaloogie  and bloated
[09:02] <YoussefAssad> AAA: I know

[09:02] <poddo> ok, thanks
[09:02] <converted> isn't karamba for kde?
[09:03] <AAA> digitalpenguin  rh != ubuntu || debian

[09:03] <digitalpenguin> AAA im having a problem getting java5
[09:03] <AAA> digitalpenguin  roothack ain't ubuntu
[09:03] <digitalpenguin> it keeps giving me an error
[09:03] <digitalpenguin> E: clvm: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3
[09:03] <digitalpenguin> E: redhat-cluster-suite: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[09:03] <digitalpenguin> E: system-config-cluster: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[09:03] <AAA> Cigarette  did sudo ifconfig wlan0 up work?
[09:04] <AAA> digitalpenguin  ubuntu doesn't support redhat
[09:04] <digitalpenguin> ah
[09:04] <AAA> digitalpenguin  get debian
[09:04] <digitalpenguin> so how come i get that when i try to install alarm clock and java
[09:04] <YoussefAssad> digitalpenguin: I think apt-get is usually quite verbose. You're missing a package somewhere, try to figure out which one it is
[09:04] <Tsukino> cat /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/info
[09:04] <Tsukino> processor id:            0
[09:04] <Tsukino> acpi id:                 0
[09:04] <Tsukino> bus mastering control:   yes
[09:04] <Tsukino> power management:        yes
[09:04] <Tsukino> throttling control:      no
[09:04] <Tsukino> limit interface:         no
[09:04] <AAA> digitalpenguin  did you alter your /etc/apt/sources.list file?
[09:05] <Tsukino> oops, didn't think it'd add all those lines
[09:05] <digitalpenguin> nope
[09:05] <YoussefAssad> AAA: apt-cache search redhat
[09:05] <digitalpenguin> well i did add the universe
[09:05] <digitalpenguin> and metaverse
[09:05] <AAA> YoussefAssad  ok, I don't support redhat...
[09:05] <Cigarette> AAA, it made my internet stop working
[09:05] <YoussefAssad> AAA: it's in the ubuntu sources, clever person
[09:06] <AAA> Cigarette  how where you getting on the INet? paste your route -n now
[09:06] <Amaranth> what?
[09:06] <digitalpenguin> i just want the alarm clock to work
[09:06] <Cigarette> i cant paste my route -n, it's not online
[09:06] <AAA> YoussefAssad  I just can't type redhat* at a command line
[09:06] <Tonren> man... this chat fails tonight
[09:06] <digitalpenguin> AAA why would alarm clock keep wanting redhat if its not supported
[09:07] <YoussefAssad> AAA: you'll grow out of it
[09:07] <Cigarette> aaa, i was on the inet because my wlan was up
[09:07] <AAA> digitalpenguin  like gtk/kde alarm clock?
[09:07] <YoussefAssad> AAA: a step back; what task are yo trying to accomplish?
[09:07] <digitalpenguin> ah i just read that
[09:07] <digitalpenguin> it needs KDE
[09:07] <digitalpenguin> im a gnome person
[09:07] <AAA> Cigarette  then you brought it down, so bring it up with ifconfig wlan0 up
[09:07] <AAA> YoussefAssad  world domination
[09:07] <digitalpenguin> i wanted to run KAlarm
[09:07] <Cigarette> i did, and it doesnt work
[09:08] <digitalpenguin> thanks guys
[09:08] <AAA> Cigarette  so what does iwconfig wlan0 say ?
[09:08] <scoutseed> anyone know how i can succesfully change my resolution to 1280x1024?? i already read the guides online they dont help at all
[09:08] <YoussefAssad> digitalpenguin: I know KDE is heavy on the resources, but to need clustering software to run an alarm...
[09:09] <Cigarette> all of my AP's info, other stuff...
[09:09] <AAA> Cigarette  so dhclient wlan0
[09:09] <digitalpenguin> ya its ok ill just search the net for a gnome based alarm clock
[09:09] <digitalpenguin> i needed one for schooo
[09:09] <digitalpenguin> school*
[09:10] <AAA> Cigarette  did you get an address?
[09:10] <YoussefAssad> digitalpenguin: if a comand line alarm would do, why don't you bring up man cron and have a look at that?
[09:10] <Cigarette> AAA, it works
[09:10] <YoussefAssad> digitalpenguin: command line works in gnome :)
[09:10] <digitalpenguin> please explain
[09:11] <AAA> Cigarette  good, so if you can ifconfig wlan0 down and ifconfig wlan0 up and it still works, it will work on  boot
[09:11] <YoussefAssad> (despite the gnome team's best efforts to stamp out the command line)
[09:11] <fork> is it possible to set ubuntu to use  debian's unstable packages?
[09:11] <crimsun> source packages, yes. binary packages, not recommended.
[09:11] <YoussefAssad> digitalpenguin: cron is the linux system scheduler. You can schedule things, say the playing of an mp3 file at a certain time (i.e. alarm)
[09:11] <scoutseed> no one knows how to run 1280x1024 with a nvidia card?
[09:11] <fork> crimsun, why binary arent recommanded?
[09:12] <digitalpenguin> ya but ive never done it i mean
[09:12] <DanaG> My CPU's SpeedStep (EIST, actually) does not work.
[09:12] <Cigarette> AAA, it doesnt work on ifconfig wlan0 up
[09:12] <DanaG> It tells me I have "8 states between 1.83GHz and 1.83GHz".
[09:13] <crimsun> fork: because we use a different toolchain, which produces slightly different binaries, and combining binaries from different non-ubuntu repositories may cause mysterious failures.
[09:13] <anderbubble> could someone recommend a resource to get 3d acelleration to work with a radeon 9600xt?
[09:13] <YoussefAssad> digitalpenguin: well, if you'd accept reading for about 15 minutes to understand cron, then you could do your own alarm clock as well as learn one of the most useful linux commands. Or you might just do like you said, a gnome alarm clock. Whichever you prefer
[09:13] <digitalpenguin> youssefassad i sent you a PM
[09:13] <YoussefAssad> digitalpenguin: I prefer keeping it in the channel :)
[09:13] <digitalpenguin> ok
[09:13] <digitalpenguin> well ill read
[09:13] <digitalpenguin> its all good

[09:15] <nearfar> AAA: any GUI?
[09:15] <Jowi> poddo: if you want the app to be available to everyone, you can use the /opt
[09:15] <Cigarette> but i have 100/100 link
[09:15] <poddo> jowi, thanks
[09:15] <AAA> Cigarette  apt-get install wavemon (sudo)
[09:15] <Jowi> poddo: if it is just for your own user, you can use whatever you want though
[09:16] <poddo> ok.  ill use opt since its empty :-)
[09:16] <Fracture> poddo: I usually use /tmp
[09:16] <nearfar> because, I want to select particular scenes and 'paste' then as single movie, AAA

[09:16] <nearfar> AAA: I have the DVD already ripped
[09:16] <Fracture> poddo: then, once I work out if I want to keep the app, move it somewhere else
[09:16] <AAA> nearfar  dvdrip I think the pkg is
[09:16] <nearfar> I only have the ripped files (downloaded via torrent)
[09:16] <AAA> nearfar  dvdrip

[09:17] <Fracture> !wavemon
[09:17] <ubotu> I know nothing about wavemon - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[09:17] <nearfar> AAA: I hope I can 'drag' and select certain scenes in the movie using dvdrip

[09:21] <YoussefAssad> digitalpenguin: go for it
[09:22] <Jowi> !sound
[09:22] <ubotu> If sound is not working, first try system -> prefrences -> multimedia system selector change it to alsa. If you still have problems then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[09:22] <cocos> Jowi: doesnt sound familiar how can i check it?

[09:29] <DanaG> My onboard HD Audio needed some position_fix setting, but I can't find it.

[09:30] <ompaul> bilss_, morning
[09:30] <bilss_> Jowi: permanent
[09:30] <DanaG> I can't find how to unload and reload the snd_hda_intel module.
[09:31] <AAA> Cigarette  that is your auto-up problem
[09:31] <jason> no carrier, the file won't transfer for some reason, and I thought the bcm_43xx driving won't work for the 4319?
[09:31] <holycow> sudo rmod modulename
[09:31] <holycow> sudo modprobe modulename
[09:31] <AAA> rmmod
[09:31] <jason> sorry nocarrier,
[09:31] <DanaG> It's in use.
[09:31] <holycow> sudo lsmod will list modules
[09:31] <nocarrier> jason: np...
[09:31] <Jowi> bilss_: you need to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst, find the row with the boot you wish to change and change both the "root" and the "kernel root=" options
[09:32] <holycow> DanaG, *hmmm* thats outside my knowledge
[09:32] <snarfer> Is there a general chat for Ubuntu?
[09:32] <m0nkey> whats the command to install all source code avalible?
[09:32] <AAA> kernel root = /dev/null
[09:32] <snarfer> I recall there being one.....
[09:32] <AAA> no
[09:32] <Cigarette> AAA, i still have to do dhclient
[09:32] <holycow> DanaG, if its a driver for hard drivers you wont be able unload it as the os is probably mounted off of it
[09:32] <bilss_> Jowi: ok i will take a look
[09:32] <Jowi> bilss_: but, best thing is to create a new entry and use that just in case you screw it up.
[09:32] <silentwf> hi guys is this true about Ubuntu DNS Cache? -> http://www.zoomcities.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=1228
[09:32] <AAA> Cigarette  ifdown wlan0; ifup wlan0
[09:32] <jason> nocarrier, I don't know why but sometimes I have trouble with dcc transfers in xchat, it just stalls at "connect"
[09:32] <AAA> Cigarette  dhcp
[09:32] <Jowi> bilss_: worst thing ever is to have an unbootable system.
[09:33] <jason> nocarrier, can you email it to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>?
[09:33] <nocarrier> yea
[09:33] <Jowi> bilss_: copy the entry you need and then change it. remove the original one after you see that it works
[09:33] <m0nkey> whats the command to install all source code avalible? again
[09:33] <AAA> m0nkey  all?
[09:33] <silentwf> anyone??
[09:33] <m0nkey> yes
[09:34] <Cigarette> AAA, ifdown returns this

[09:36] <m0nkey> i want enough sorce code so i can install programs without being propted
[09:37] <Jowi> m0nkey: your question does not make sense. can you rephrase it?
[09:37] <jroes> hi, this is going to sound stupid, but how do I copy text from a window (e.g. Firefox) into emacs?
[09:37] <jroes> I can copy text from emacs to another application just fine, but the other way around doesn't work for some reason
[09:37] <nocarrier> Cigarette: all it says is networking (universe)
[09:37] <Jowi> jroes: highlight it in firefox. click on the emacs window and middle click
[09:38] <Cigarette> ok
[09:38] <Cigarette> found it
[09:38] <m0nkey> i just want to install the sorce code for the standered librarys and GCC for compiling programs
[09:38] <jroes> Jowi: weird.  is there any way to rebind that?  my middle click is crappy
