[12:10] <EliteHunter> ubottu: http://clip2net.com/clip/m12364/1232107651-clip-18kb.png i got this problem while installing
[12:10] <Slart> !cn | sailingcai
[12:10] <dio444> oCean_ except that this box has no mail support....
[12:10] <sailingcai> o, thank you, that's very helpful for me
[12:11] <oCean_> dio444: maybe that has something to do with it. Not sure.
[12:11] <Slart> dio444: come to think of it.. perhaps it just halts since it wants to mail the output and can't.. but that seems kind of.. bad as a default behavious
[12:11] <druntar> I just went to adobe.com and tried to download from there but it popped up saying there wasn't room on the drive to download.
[12:12] <druntar> I have 3.9 gigs free in the linux part and 160 in /home
[12:12] <druntar> wtf?
[12:12] <dio444> slart, oCean_ well, I don't really care too much, and now I'm just sending it to /dev/null and it seem to work like I need. So thanks for your help.
[12:12] <Slart> you couldn't download the zip file? (and please don't use expressions as wtf)
[12:13] <Slart> dio444: you're welcome.. glad it worked out for you (even if we don't know why =)
[12:13] <IndyGunFreak> druntar: lol, thats impressive
[12:13] <mankash> what is the use of /dev/null ?
[12:13] <carrera> Is it best to modify my PATH var in .bashrc or .profile?
[12:13] <Slart> mankash: somewhere to send stuff you dont want
[12:13] <Slart> mankash: it's just discared afaik
[12:13] <oCean_> dio444: Slart: it bugs me (a little) so, I'm checking this out. It's raining anyway ;)
[12:14] <druntar> Correct I can't download it. and I appologize for the wtf
[12:14] <A[D]minS> !xmms
[12:14] <Slart> druntar: you're downloading the 64 bit beta from adobe labs?
[12:14] <VSpike> mankash: e.g. find / -iname '*foo*' will give a lot of errors you dont care about when it tries to search /tmp, /proc and other locations... so you do find / -iname '*foo*' 2>/dev/null
[12:15] <Slart> druntar: from this page http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html
[12:15] <mankash> thx Vspike
[12:15] <tenang> so what's a good iso emulator for ubuntu or does it not use iso?
[12:15] <Slart> tenang: no need to emulate iso.. type !mountiso in the channel for more info
[12:15] <druntar> There is not enough room on the disk to save /tmp/dE5WUbv7.part.
[12:15] <druntar> Remove unnecessary files from the disk and try again, or try saving in a different location.
[12:16] <tenang> !mountiso
[12:16] <druntar> That's the error I get from the adobelabs site
[12:16] <Slart> druntar: run a dh -h  in a terminal, please
[12:16] <tenang> wow nifty lmao not bad
[12:16] <tenang> ty
[12:16] <Slart> druntar: sorry.. that's "df -h"

[12:16] <pct-IIlll> à¢éÒ ubuntu-th
[12:16] <Slart> tenang: you're welcome
[12:16] <quibbler> druntar, have a look here: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/install-flash-10-ubuntu-linux-64bit.html
[12:17] <VSpike> OK, I ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config and said "yes" to bitmap fonts.  It has created the appropriate symlink in /etc/fonts/conf.d.  I've run fc-cache and defoma and sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig and *still* no bitmap font choices appear.  What am I doing wrong?
[12:17] <druntar> http://pastebin.com/m4122b861
[12:17] <druntar> there's df -h
[12:18] <|neon|> is there a how to to setup a laptop connected to an ext lcd to use both screens as "separate x screens" not twin view
[12:18] <Acoustic-> .
[12:18] <sipior> carrera: it doesn't really matter, as long as the appropriate file is invoked consistently for you. .profile is only sourced when bash acts as a login shell. some folks just source it directly from .bashrc; whatever works best for your setup.
[12:18] <marek_> hi, i added a user with userad, i created a password, but i cannot connect from other host via ssh... what can i do?
[12:18] <hateball> druntar: your /tmp is 1mb
[12:18] <mankash> Vspike: how to use grep so that it doesn't get stuck in the loop?
[12:18] <sipior> marek_: do you have openssh-server installed?
[12:18] <VSpike> mankash: how do you mean stuck in the loop?
[12:18] <druntar> Well, I have no idea how it got that way.
[12:19] <druntar> Or how to fix it lol.
[12:19] <marek_> sipior yup
[12:19] <mankash> I think when it has links in it
[12:19] <marek_> i can connect to other users
[12:19] <sipior> marek_: and is sshd running?
[12:19] <Slart> druntar: can you pastebin your /etc/fstab too?
[12:19] <marek_> sipior yup
[12:19] <sipior> marek_: also, you can invoke ssh with the -v switch to get a bit more feedback about the problem.
[12:19] <tenang> !theme
[12:20] <bashca> please need  help setting firestarter to share connections btw ubuntu and windows ???
[12:20] <tenang> so just out of curiosity anyone know how to remove a theme?
[12:20] <druntar> http://pastebin.com/mb4c9466
[12:20] <VSpike> mankash: you have circular symlinks?
[12:20] <tenang> uninstall
[12:20] <mankash> ye
[12:20] <Slart> druntar: having a small /tmp will bite you in the behind sooner or later.. but if you don't want to deal with that right now you can always use wget to download the file.. wget  http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-10.0.d21.1.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz will get it for you
[12:21] <tenang> so lay it on me how do you do it? lol
[12:21] <druntar> I'll fix it now if someone will tell me how.
[12:21] <Slart> druntar: do you have a /tmp folder on your root drive?
[12:21] <marek_> sipior http://pastebin.com/m4a73938a
[12:21] <Ximal> As of recently I've discovered that anything I delete while in nautilus after doing ; sudo nautilus > that I am not actually deleting files... Rather when I ask it to move files to trash they just disappear ... but the space that they took up still remains yet I look in trash and NOTHING is there... so I was wandering wtf I should do or if this is a known bug ?
[12:21] <druntar> yes
[12:21] <VSpike> makkbe: I'm not sure that grep has a suitable option.. maybe do "find -print 0 | xargs -0 grep stuff"
[12:21] <VSpike> mankash: sorry ^
[12:22] <VSpike> mankash: find by default does not follow symlinks
[12:22] <Slart> Ximal: it probably ends up in the root users trash
[12:22] <Ximal> where might I find that slart ?
[12:22] <sipior> marek_: looks like you're typing in the wrong password.
[12:22] <Slart> Ximal: take a look in /root/.local or something like that
[12:22] <Ximal> cause I have 130 gigs sitting idle somewhere
[12:22] <Slart> !trash
[12:22] <mankash> ok
[12:22] <VSpike> mankash: sorry "find -print0 | xargs -0 grep stuff"
[12:22] <Slart> Ximal: so /root/local/share/Trash
[12:23] <druntar> yes I have a tmp folder in my / directory
[12:23] <Ximal> Slart: is there a command to EMPTY all trash bins on the system ?
[12:23] <dr_willis>  /root/.local/
[12:23] <|neon|> is there a how to to setup a laptop connected to an ext lcd to use both screens as "separate x screens" not twin view xrandr is definetly broke on intrepid and nvidia-setting is useless
[12:23] <dr_willis> Ximal,  none that i have ever seen
[12:23] <Slart> Ximal: not that I know of.. there is a command line trash application you could use with sudo though
[12:23] <druntar> I wonder if that could be the cause of videos only playing 10-20 seconds.
[12:23] <Slart> !info trash-cli | Ximal
[12:23] <druntar> They were playing fine just a few days ago.....?
[12:23] <marek_> sipior i get it, i pasted sudo useradd -d /home/torr -m testuser, but i havent changed last word :( im so stupid
[12:23] <Slart> druntar: that might very well be it
[12:23] <Ximal> cool slart... you are sooo helpful and I thank you for it !
[12:23] <hateball> druntar: yep, youtube et al, use /tmp for storage
[12:24] <Slart> druntar: what happens if you run "sudo umount /tmp" ?
[12:24] <sipior> marek_: happens to all of us at one time or another :-)
[12:24] <druntar> What could have changed it though?
[12:24] <Slart> Ximal: you're welcome
[12:24] <bashca> please need  help setting firestarter to share connections btw ubuntu and windows ???
[12:24] <druntar> says that /tmp is busy
[12:24] <tenang> anyone know how to uninstall a theme file?
[12:25] <Slart> druntar: have you tried an old fashioned "the way we do it in windows-land"-reboot ?
[12:25] <tenang> I would hate to reinstall just to get rid of it but at this rate it might be faster lol
[12:25] <druntar> Yeah I've tried that too
[12:25] <kurrata> !orbit
[12:25] <tenang> !orbit
[12:26] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[12:26] <ActionParsnip> !info orbit
[12:26] <bashca> please need  help setting firestarter to share connections btw ubuntu and windows ???
[12:26] <kurrata> ActionParsnip:  thx ;P
[12:26] <Slart> druntar: hang on.. let me google a bit.. see if I can't find something useful
[12:26] <ActionParsnip> tenang: if its a package, use !info first
[12:26] <remoteCTR1> anyone familiar with nfs? got a few questions there...
[12:27] <tenang> !info
[12:27] <ActionParsnip> !ics | bashca
[12:27] <tenang> !info Overglossed
[12:27] <druntar> Okay, so now I have two questions a) How can I increase the size of that /tmp directory, and b) Did something make it smaller which is why flash video worked fine 3-4 days ago, but now won't work.
[12:28] <tenang> Package Overglossed does not exist in intrepid
[12:28] <Patty> moin
[12:28] <ActionParsnip> !info overglossed
[12:28] <druntar> Oh, and is that even the problem? LOL
[12:28] <deany> whats that command to reconfigure xorg when display is messed up, im using virtualbox with 8.10 in, somehow the display wont go higher than 800x600 anymore (guest additions installed fine)
[12:34] <Patty> irc://irc.101-freedom.org/xilence
[12:34] <ActionParsnip> judgen: i'd use dd
[12:34] <druntar> that was weird
[12:35] <druntar> had to restart my wireless router to get connected back to the network
[12:35] <druntar> ran df -h again
[12:35] <Slart> druntar: I think I found another solution for you
[12:35] <Slart> druntar: sudo /etc/init.d/mountoverflowtmp stop
[12:35] <judgen> ActionParsnip so from the active partition i sue DD an put it on the larger disk without issues?
[12:36] <judgen> ActionParsnip doent DD require the partitions to be the same size
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> judgen: from live cd, yes you should be fine. You will need to reinstall grub manually thi=ough
[12:36] <Slart> druntar: of course, you need to make sure there is enough space on /tmp or things might start failing
[12:36] <druntar> http://pastebin.com/m19432e7f
[12:36] <judgen> ActionParsnip i cant use a livecd.
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> judgen: no, it just copies the bits until it runs out
[12:36] <druntar> that's the new df -h
[12:36] <sajuuk_> hey guys i did a rsync of my other hdd to my second hdd and its not booting up... what could I have done wrong?
[12:36] <Slart> druntar: also I would run "sudo apt-get clean" to clear up some more space
[12:37] <Slart> druntar: so now it's working =)
[12:37] <sipior> sajuuk_: have you reinstalled grub so that it looks in the new location?
[12:37] <Ximal> Slart: hey m8... I can't find the dern command for trash-cli ... I mean rather ... trash-cli brings up the no command found response ...
[12:37] <druntar> haven't tried yet
[12:37] <druntar> going to try getting adobe 10
[12:37] <druntar> first
[12:37] <sajuuk_> sipior: how do i do that?
[12:37] <judgen> ActionParsnip Is there some way i can do it from within the booter partition?
[12:37] <ActionParsnip> judgen: download a minimal cd, its like 10mb and will give you a command line
[12:37] <judgen> ActionParsnip i cant use a CD
[12:37] <Slart> Ximal: there are lots of commands.. "trash-cli" is just a package, not a command.. try empty-trash
[12:38] <sipior> sajuuk_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[12:38] <druntar> well it let me download the archive
[12:38] <druntar> now where do I put libflashplayer.so?
[12:38] <judgen> ActionParsnip this computer does not havea floppy or CD.
[12:38] <Slart> Ximal: there's also list-trash, restore-trash, trash
[12:38] <ActionParsnip> judgen: use usb then
[12:38] <Ximal> well is there a manual command for me to read up on it ?
[12:39] <Slart> druntar: I put mine in ~/mozilla/plugins/
[12:39] <judgen> ActionParsnip not the answer i was hoping for... so i have to buy more hardware... isnt there a way to do a direct copy...
[12:39] <druntar> That's crazy
[12:39] <Slart> Ximal: man trash or man empty-trash
[12:39] <druntar> I've rebooted like 5 times since this started to no avail
[12:39] <druntar> Just out of curiosity I tried a video before installing the new adobe
[12:39] <ActionParsnip> judgen: i wouldnt dd a mounted partition as the data may change during the copy so its not so safe
[12:39] <druntar> and it's working fine
[12:40] <Slart> druntar: and now it works, right?
[12:40] <Slart> druntar: its' the tmp thingy
[12:40] <judgen> ActionParsnip i cant just copy the folders to the other Ext3 partition?
[12:40] <Slart> druntar: there are some threads about it in the forums.. it affects all kinds of stuff
[12:40] <ActionParsnip> judgen: you can always install the same apps and copy over xorg.conf and smb.conf and your ~/ folder I guess
[12:40] <druntar> I don't understand why it didn't fix it the first 5 times I rebooted though.
[12:40] <ActionParsnip> judgen: try it, see if it flys
[12:40] <garrettheel> after installing php and mysql, does anyone know why i'd get a fatal error when calling the mysql_connect() function? this would assume that php isn't working with mysql
[12:40] <tuna> I'm having weird trouble with brasero. When I'm trying to burn a dvd from an iso, I get speeds of about 1x (1000kb/sec), or in other words, it takes an hour to burn a disk. This is despite selecting faster speeds. What's even weirder, when I burn my load-averages are at about 3, and the system is really slow, despite top saying my cpu is 90% idle. Before I upgraded to8.10, I could easily burn dvd's at 16x or so.
[12:41] <judgen> ActionParsnip i want the whole OS... the drive im migrating for is too small.
[12:41] <bashca> please need  help setting firestarter to share connections btw ubuntu and windows ???
[12:41] <Slart> !ics | bashca
[12:41] <bashca> i did all  that  but  firestarter dosn't  open
[12:41] <druntar> Slart Any clue why it didn't work the first 5 times I rebooted?
[12:42] <ActionParsnip> judgen: then ty cp the data over then
[12:42] <sajuuk_> sipior: is it better to modify grub in live session with the hard drive im going to use in?
[12:42] <Slart> druntar: no idea.. for some reason it thought you didn't have enough space on your regular /tmp drive
[12:42] <archman_> wget rules! any way to make wget to get links from txt file?
[12:42] <Slart> archman_: you've read the man pages, right?
[12:42] <bashca> Slart,  External network device eth0 is not ready. Aborting.   i got this
[12:43] <druntar> Hey slart I don't have a ~/.mozilla/plugins folder
[12:43] <ActionParsnip> archman_: you could use grep with exec
[12:43] <sides> Someone have an idea how can i restore file that been deleted with shift+del ?
[12:43] <ActionParsnip> archman_: possibly
[12:43] <archman_> Slart: sorry, will look now...
[12:43] <sipior> sajuuk_: this is an external hard drive?
[12:43] <VSpike> OK, I ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config and said "yes" to bitmap fonts.  It has created the appropriate symlink in /etc/fonts/conf.d.  I've run fc-cache and defoma and sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig and *still* no bitmap font choices appear.  What am I doing wrong?
[12:43] <Slart> druntar: hmm.. you do have a .mozilla folder?
[12:43] <druntar> I have a .mozilla
[12:43] <quibbler> druntar, try ~/.mozilla/firefox/plugins
[12:43] <judgen> Wich folders are automatically created during bootup?
[12:43] <druntar> has two folders named firefox and extensions
[12:43] <sajuuk_> no its a hdd with which i have migrated to so i have freed up the latter drive so i can use it to store data on my windows machine
[12:43] <Slart> druntar: try creating a plugins folder.. see if it works
[12:43] <druntar> no plugins folder in firefox either quibbler
[12:44] <Slart> druntar: or try whatever quibbler said
[12:44] <druntar> Should I even worry about it since its working the way it is?
[12:44] <sajuuk_> that and its an internal, just to finally answer ur question
[12:44] <sipior> sajuuk_: so, what did you mean by: "with the hard drive im going to use in?"
[12:44] <|neon|> can i share the wire internet connection via wireless by creating an ad hoc connection to be able to use my ipod wirelessly?
[12:44] <Slart> druntar: if you're happy then there's no reason to mess with it
[12:44] <bashca> Slart,  External network device eth0 is not ready. Aborting.   i got this   ????
[12:44] <quibbler> druntar, if it works don't fix it!
[12:44] <ActionParsnip> archman_: oh you are in luck: its a standard option: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-wget-your-ultimate-command-line-downloader.html
[12:45] <sajuuk_> sipior: the one im booting from
[12:45] <Slart> bashca: I have no idea, I've never used firestarter
[12:45] <druntar> That's what I'm thinking. Thanks guys, we may never know what happened but at least it's working.
[12:45] <ActionParsnip> archman_: wget -i /path/to/files.txt
[12:45] <quibbler> druntar, maybe you have to increase your / partition
[12:45] <sipior> sajuuk_: you should be able to install grub from the live cd, or from the running system, whichever you feel more comfortable with.
[12:45] <bashca> any 1 using firestarter ??
[12:46] <archman_> ActionParsnip: yes, i read it now in man, thanks! ;)
[12:46] <druntar> I have 3.9 gigs free on the root partition.
[12:46] <garrettheel> why would none of the mysql functions exist with php? i keep getting a fatal error
[12:46] <Slart> ActionParsnip: give a man a fish... teach him to fish... bla bla ;)
[12:46] <druntar> and 160 on my /home partition.
[12:46] <sajuuk_> i prefer the live, cos im in it right now
[12:46] <sajuuk_> sipior: which part of the guide do i follow for that bit?
[12:47] <ActionParsnip> Slart: teach a man to fish and he'll sit fishing every day instead of doing his job / going to the pub
[12:47] <ActionParsnip> Slart: ;)
[12:47] <|neon|> can i share the wire internet connection via wireless by creating an ad hoc connection to be able to use my ipod wirelessly?
[12:47] <Slart> ActionParsnip: or "Give a man a fish and he'll have food for a day, teach a man to fish and he'll say "Where is my fish!!"" =)
[12:48] <ActionParsnip> Slart: like it
[12:48] <ActionParsnip> !ics | |neon|
[12:48] <archman_> Slart: i know how to 'fish' very much, but i was just lazzy now, so i asked for maybe someone could tell; thanks for pointing me to man...i never use it, i just google...hehe; btw.: hate pubs ;)
[12:48] <lisi> slt
[12:48] <ActionParsnip> |neon|: yes you can
[12:48] <trance> how can i use the +x mode command in irc?
[12:48] <Slart> archman_: you're welcome =)
[12:48] <lisi> thanks
[12:48] <ActionParsnip> archman_: ww.ask.com is pretty decent too
[12:48] <lisi> speak french ?
[12:48] <|neon|> ActionParsnip: thx
[12:48] <Slart> ! fr | lisi
[12:49] <lisi> ! fr
[12:49] <sipior> sajuuk_: i would imagine "Backup, Repairing and Reinstalling GRUB". Be sure to read that document carefully, so that you don't make your system unbootable. in particular, be sure you have the correct value for "root" and "setup"
[12:49] <Slart> trance: you mean chmod? to make something executable?
[12:49] <quibbler> Slart, I caught one <--------------------------------------> this big
[12:49] <sajuuk_> sipior: I am getting an error 15 in the grub when i do find /boot/grub/stage1
[12:49] <archman_> Slart: for could i not know how to fish, i'm here on gutsy for over a year and a half, and for me to get it all running, required a lot of fishing...hehe; cheers!
[12:49] <archman_> how*
[12:50] <sipior> sajuuk_: did you invoke grub via sudo?
[12:50] <trance> no i want to hide the first part of my ip
[12:50] <sajuuk_> sipior: yep
[12:50] <Slart> archman_: indeed.. there is a lot of fishing the first year =)
[12:50] <trance> mode +x
[12:50] <archman_> Slart: i somehow 'hate' man, it's ugly and sometimes 'unreadable'...depends on docs thou...
[12:50] <Slart> trance: huh.. never heard of this..
[12:51] <quibbler> archman_, and fish is so healthy too
[12:51] <Slart> archman_: some man pages are really horrible.. indeed
[12:51] <ActionParsnip> archman_: if you put "man wget" in nautilus you should get something nicer
[12:51] <archman_> Slart thats why i google!
[12:52] <Slart> ActionParsnip: oh.. it works in nautilus?? why doesn't people tell me these things.. where is my fish?!?
[12:52] <trance> ok thx some1 else to help me with the +x mode command in irc?
[12:52] <archman_> ActionParsnip: ugh, i need to get that address bar shown already...
[12:52] <trance> it says unknown MODE flag
[12:53] <Slart> trance: ahhhh.. in irc..
[12:53] <trance> yep
[12:53] <sajuuk_> sipior: no wonder, nothings on it :S
[12:53] <ActionParsnip> Slart: i dunno if it does but it seems like a multifunction thing so i imagined it would
[12:53] <sipior> sajuuk_: do you get a "Checking if ... exists" error?
[12:53] <cute> kkkk
[12:53] <sipior> sajuuk_: well, that would do it.
[12:53] <sajuuk_> but but but btu i spent half an hour syncing to it
[12:53] <sajuuk_> :(
[12:53] <trance> Slart will u help me man?
[12:54] <Slart> trance: I think that might be dependant on the irc-server.. if it doesn't work here perhaps freenode doesn't use it
[12:54] <trance> ok man got it thx :>
[12:55] <archman_> ActionParsnip: ctrl+L did the job...
[12:55] <sajuuk_> sipior: can you run through rsync for me?
[12:55] <sipior> sajuuk_: "man rsync" :-)
[12:55] <trance> only if its supported
[12:57] <sajuuk_> sipior: wots that do?
[12:57] <sipior> sajuuk_: it shows you the manual for the rsync program. it's pretty straightforward, with plenty of examples that probably cover what you want to do.
[12:58] <sajuuk_> sipior: ok cool :)
[12:59] <root___> hi guys.
[12:59] <mib_h9raa9> hi
[12:59] <iNtERrUpT> :)
[13:00] <mib_h9raa9> i have some problems with evolution and thunderbird in ubuntu with an account of jazztel
[13:00] <rn0308982> can anyone help with a few mods to a live usb?
[13:01] <mib_h9raa9> i configured like it says but, i cant send emails, (only receive)
[13:02] <sajuuk_> sipior: what am I looking for?
[13:02] <rn0308982> i just need to change it so that I can save in a home directory, at the moment its just like a cd and wont save anything
[13:03] <mib_h9raa9> is there an evolution # ?
[13:03] <sipior> sajuuk_: the sections "Usage" and "Advanced Usage" would be obvious choices.
[13:06] <riccardo19871> !it
[13:08] <djmrsmith> hi all... not really a newbie to linux but this one has got me stuck
[13:08] <koa> hello. I have an account on an ubuntu machine on which I am not root. I would like to install a package (emacs-snapshot). is it doable ?
[13:09] <djmrsmith> Xubuntu.... Thunar > "Open With" always defaults to "Always Use this..." my question is... How do i edit the code to NOT Always open with?
[13:09] <djmrsmith> koa, you could try, worst case it will say NO
[13:10] <quibbler> koa, if you know the root password
[13:10] <djmrsmith> yeah or that :-)
[13:10] <koa> quibbler, I don't. so there's no way to just install it for me ?
[13:10] <|O|Sad> how can I raise volume in Gnome from the terminal??? With some sort of visual display
[13:11] <alkjflsakjf> |O|Sad, run alsamixer
[13:11] <sajuuk_> sipior: ok im still kinda lost you have rsync -options /(first drive) /(destination drive)
[13:11] <|O|Sad> it won't display anything...I want something that would raise the volume like a multimedia keyboard does
[13:12] <sipior> koa: you can always grab the source code and build it, or ask the administrator to give you sudo access for apt-get (which he almost certainly won't give you :-). there might also be a way to convince dpkg to install the package in your home directory. might be worth googling for that possibility.
[13:12] <djmrsmith> anyone on this:   Thunar > "Open With" always defaults to "Always Use this..." my question is... How do i edit the code to NOT Always open with?
[13:13] <quibbler> koa, i don't think so
[13:13] <sipior> sajuuk_: you probably want something like "sudo rsync -avz /foo /bar"
[13:13] <rn0308982>  can anyone help with a mod to a live usb?i need to change it so that I can save in a home directory, at the moment its just like a cd and wont save anything
[13:14] <shal3r> How to install KDE3 on Ubuntu (not kubuntu) 8.10 ?
[13:14] <Lenin-chan> Hello, when i try to boot with my own kernel 2.6.28, i get kernel panic - not syncing: no init found try passing init= option to kernel kernel panic...
[13:14] <Lenin-chan> any help?
[13:14] <rn0308982> wont save my settings or installs after reboot
[13:16] <rn0308982> nUbuntu 8.12 "Instigating Insecurity" Release i386
[13:17] <sajuuk_> sipior: ok its doing that but im getting weird things happen... 'media/newhome/.Trash-0/files/media/newhome/media/newhome/media/newhome/media/newhome/wotever
[13:17] <sajuuk_> sipior: its as if its creating the same thing over and over
[13:17] <sipior> sajuuk_: well, what is the precise command that you executed?
[13:17] <Nero____> hi
[13:18] <Nero____> i have some problems with the network manager
[13:18] <sajuuk_> sipior sudo rsync -avz / /media/newhome
[13:19] <sajuuk_> sipior: plus im not hearing either hard drive writing while its doing this
[13:19] <sipior> sajuuk_: and /media is mounted under root, so...you see the problem?
[13:20] <djmrsmith> Must be some linux gurus in here....
[13:20] <djmrsmith> Thunar > "Open With" always defaults to "Always Use this..." my question is... How do i edit the code to NOT Always open with?
[13:20] <sajuuk_> sipior: not precisely... btw the destination hdd is writing
[13:20] <sajuuk_> sipior: am i meant to not run the command under root?
[13:20] <oCean_> djmrsmith: maybe in #thunar
[13:21] <soreau> djmrsmith: maybe in ##linux
[13:21] <Slart> djmrsmith: if you can wait a bit for the answer I'm willing to take a look
[13:21] <sipior> sajuuk_: btw, if the goal is to copy your entire partition, best to do that by booting from the live CD. you could mount the two partitions under completely unrelated mount points, avoiding the problem here.
[13:21] <embrik> do you know about a howto for installaing ubuntu on a computer with xp? Done this a lot of times, suddenly I can't format the ubuntu partition. I use ubuntu 8.04
[13:21] <djmrsmith> i am in #thunar....... all sleeping
[13:21] <djmrsmith> not tried linux, will add in there also
[13:21] <djmrsmith> i ahve time :-)
[13:21] <sajuuk_> sipior and with the live cd do what?
[13:21] <sipior> sajuuk_: run rsync, as before
[13:21] <ActionParsnip> embrik: do you mean wubi or resizing the partition to do a dual boot?
[13:22] <sipior> sajuuk_: mount the partitions as /mnt/old and /mnt/new, and copy away.
[13:22] <sajuuk_> rightio
[13:22] <embrik> ActionParsnip, Tesizing partition to do a dual boot
[13:23] <lfaraone> Hi, I'm able to connect to the wifi at home, but my school uses a ASCII wep password (with multiple access points, not sure if it's WDS) and I cannot authenticate on ubuntu, although I can on my iPod and Windows computer.
[13:23] <Jaffarkelshac> what other apps are there to record the destop apart from recordmydesktop
[13:23] <ActionParsnip> embrik: then you need gparted in the live cd
[13:23] <whileimhere> If I wanted to start learning python what is a good IDE?
[13:23] <sipior> sajuuk_: the problem i alluded to earlier: what happens when rsync reaches the /media directory? where does it put that stuff? the answer is: /media/new/media/... rsync can get itself into a loop.
[13:23] <lfaraone> whileimhere: try asking in #python, but I reccomend Eric3.
[13:23] <embrik> ActionParsnip, OK and make a new partition manually. Is that safe?
[13:24] <whileimhere> thanks that is what I was thinking
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> embrik: no, you use it to resize the windows partition to make space
[13:24] <Slart> whileimhere: I like SPE.. Stans Python Editor or somethnig
[13:24] <lfaraone> Jaffarkelshac: try googling it. :)
[13:24] <embrik> ActionParsnip, OK, thanks :-)
[13:24] <lfaraone> Jaffarkelshac: I use "istanbul"
[13:24] <Mpole> greetings.
[13:24] <kusanagi_> Ive got 2 Xorg running --> http://rafb.net/p/2MIpmw42.html (PIDs=5389 & 5551) I restart the computer and they are still there, Anybody knows why?
[13:25] <iJoh> should I go for x64 if I have the possibility? Will it be faster? Does it have same/worse compatibility with drivers and hardware?
[13:25] <ActionParsnip> embrik: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot
[13:25] <Mpole> i have a recurring problem mounting an external USB hard disk. it mounts fine on the Mac, but on Ubuntu it's got issues. any help?
[13:25] <sajuuk_> sipior: can't you just make it 'stop' at /media/new?
[13:25] <lfaraone> iJoh: Works well for me. Sometimes if your driver is proprietary there won't be a 64bit option, but NVIDIA, intel, and ATI all work with 64x
[13:25] <ActionParsnip> embrik: you may wish to backup important data, the community docs are pretty decent but the whole process comes with no guaruntees
[13:25] <Jaffarkelshac> i will give it a try, lfaraone
[13:25] <embrik> ActionParsnip, I know, already done that
[13:26] <Omar87> Guys, what does the following command do? (grep p*)
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> embrik: good lad, millions dont then cry when their data is missing
[13:26] <Mpole> it's recently been formatted for MS-DOS filesystem, it normally mounts on MacOS X, Linux and Windows.
[13:26] <bstahl> Has anyone been able to figure out how to fix the Bugs with the ATI Drivers within Ubuntu?
[13:26] <sipior> sajuuk_: well, rsync is just doing what you told it to do. that's why it's better to do this from the live cd, and mount the two partitions at separate mount points (i.e. neither filesystem is mounted below the other)
[13:26] <kamil> Is there any polish man??
[13:27] <Mpole> ActionParsnip: i think u DID help me with this problem, a while back, but i've never had it again, until now.
[13:27] <sajuuk_> sipior: fair enough
[13:27] <embrik> Omar87, You can pipe output to grep and grep pick everythin starting with a p?
[13:27] <Mpole> ActionParsnip: what is the command that will show me the mounted and unmounted devices?
[13:27] <iJoh> lfaraone, so if my laptop is pretty new and powerful intel/nvidia it should work flawlessly?
[13:27] <sajuuk_> sipior: its taking a long time to load up the live disc... im a little worried that the graphics driver won't load up
[13:28] <lfaraone> iJoh: Yes.
[13:28] <sipior> sajuuk_: how did you install ubuntu to begin with?
[13:28] <lfaraone> iJoh: although do try it out with Wubi/livecd first, please.
[13:28] <tenehawk> hi... anyone want to help me get a Makefile script to work on Gentoo since it was designed for Redhat / Suse and afaik it shoudl work on Ubuntu, Debian, Gentoo etc no problem
[13:28] <sajuuk_> sipior: its ubuntu server
[13:28] <sipior> sajuuk_: i think the text install also can get you to a shell, iirc
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> Mpole: what issue?
[13:29] <lfaraone> tenehawk: this is the ubuntu channel. try asking on #gentoo
[13:29] <lfaraone> sajuuk_: how long is "a while"
[13:29] <embrik> ActionParsnip, But the hd on this computer is parted in three, Only 45 gb are use by XP
[13:29] <Mpole> ActionParsnip: mounting (with the force option) an external USB drive that refuses to mount on Linux, but mounts on MacOS X and Windows
[13:29] <Lenin-chan> Anyone can help with "kernel panic - not syncing: no init found try passing init= option to kernel" ?
[13:29] <Mpole> ActionParsnip: i need to first determine what devices are mounted and unmounted... right?
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> embrik: if you have unpartitioned space, ubuntu can use it and you dont have to do anything. If its all partitioned you must make space if you want to dual boot
[13:30] <lfaraone> Mpole: `mount` tells you what's mounted.
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> Mpole: sudo fdisk -l will show you the partitions you can mount
[13:30] <sajuuk_> lfaraone: like 4-6 minutes, i pressed start live session with safe graphics drivers or something along those lines and now my screen is black, not receiving signal
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> Mpole: mount will show you what is currently mounted where
[13:30] <lfaraone> sajuuk_: wait longer, up to 10 on older hw
[13:31] <Mpole> ActionParsnip: can i pastebin for u, the results for mount and fdisk?
[13:31] <sajuuk_> lfaraone: this is on a brand new comp, I get problems with the 9800gt and linux
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> Mpole: if you run: history | grep mount you will see the mount command you ran
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> Mpole: sure
[13:31] <fosco_> Lenin-chan: try to generate an init file with sudo update-initramfs -c -k 2.6.28

[13:31] <Lenin-chan> on root directory?
[13:32] <fosco_> anywhere
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> sajuuk_:
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> sajuuk_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6134148#post6134148
[13:32] <sajuuk_> lfaraone: infact the whole comp has gone silent, as if it has finished loading up
[13:33] <lfaraone> sajuuk_: ah. can you switch to a tty? ctrlaltf1
[13:33] <lfaraone> sajuuk_: or f2
[13:33] <sajuuk_> lfaraone: nope, nothing
[13:33] <sajuuk_> lfaraone: it worked with the one drive in but not with both... weird
[13:34] <lfaraone> sajuuk_: odd. try the text-based installer. if you have a relatively good inetconnection, use the "unetbootin" tool to get the netinstall.
[13:34] <lfaraone> sajuuk_: http://www.pcmech.com/article/how-to-install-ubuntu-linux-with-no-optical-drive/
[13:35] <sajuuk_> sigh all i want to do is copy the main OS partition to the next drive....
[13:35] <Mpole> ActionParsnip: this pastebin is for the sudo mount -- > http://pastebin.ca/1310032
[13:35] <ActionParsnip> Mpole: users can run mount, no need for sudo
[13:37] <sajuuk_> ok im at the text installer screen
[13:38] <Mpole> thanks ActionParsnip ... didnt know that,... now am gonna give u pastebin for the sudo fdisk -l
[13:38] <ActionParsnip> Mpole: cool
[13:38] <Mpole> ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.ca/1310033
[13:38] <sajuuk_> how about this; how about I just install the server OS and copy my samba and stuff over?
[13:39] <Mpole> ActionParsnip: i am at the moment upgrading - Synaptic - to 8.10, could this  have anything to do with it?
[13:39] <ActionParsnip> Mpole: you only have a single disk there, with 4 partitions
[13:39] <ActionParsnip> Mpole: could be if its upgrading any usb / disky stuff
[13:39] <sipior> sajuuk_: that should be fine.
[13:39] <ActionParsnip> Mpole: your fdisk output is only showing a single disk
[13:40] <Mpole> ActionParsnip: well, our bandwidth is very small down here, it takes days to do such an upgrade... yesterday i finished at 564 files out of 1254 files... i doubt whether i'll manage to finish today
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> Mpole: i'd get full updates then run from there
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> Mpole: updates fix a lot
[13:40] <sajuuk_> sipior: now i only have the filesharing system up, a openssl server working as well, so what .conf files do i need to copy over?
[13:41] <Mpole> ActionParsnip: how do i dig and find the device id for the unmounted external drive
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> Mpole: its not showing up in the fdisk output so its not mountable
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> Mpole: try detatching, waiting 30 seconds and reattatching
[13:41] <Mpole> well, i guess i better finish the update, first... lol
[13:41] <Mpole> ActionParsnip: i will do that... thanks man
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> Mpole: if its still not shoing up in sudo fdisk -l, read dmesg | tail to see whats shakin
[13:42] <Mpole> lemme try the read dmesg bit... brb
[13:42] <sipior> sajuuk_: easier just to set things up again with the new install, frankly, unless you've done a great deal of customisation.
[13:42] <sajuuk_> well it took me a few days cos it was first go
[13:43] <ActionParsnip> sipior: i do it with new drives, gives it a minty fresh feel
[13:43] <Abed> hello guys, i am trying to install hydra-5.4 source file, so when i hit ./configure i got that i don't have two libs libssh and librfc/sparfc.h , i fetched the libssh but i can't find the librfc
[13:44] <sipior> ActionParsnip: i just hang one of those pine tree air fresheners from my monitor
[13:44] <ActionParsnip> Abed: apt-cache search libssh
[13:44] <keishia> hi all, I'm running 8.10 on a eee pc and I'm having issues with WPA wifi and (possibly related) slow boot up times due to hardware drivers and network interfaces, any ideas?
[13:44] <ActionParsnip> Abed: apt-file cache search librfc
[13:44] <ardchoille> Abed: It's not in our repos
[13:46] <sajuuk_> sipior would you know what i would have to copy if i had setup a samba fileshare server, a static IP on a LAN on the first linux server?
[13:46] <Blaise> Help I've no sound after a recent update in Hardy!
[13:46] <Mpole> ActionParsnip: strange... read dmesg | tail is not producing any output.... however, dmesg itself DID produce some results a while back
[13:46] <Blaise> alsa mixer returns "No mixer elems found"
[13:47] <Mpole> ActionParsnip: what does the | tail command do?
[13:47] <sipior> sajuuk_: i'd probably forget at least one file. seriously, easier just to set it up again. most of what you need would be in /etc, so /etc/samba is a good starting point.
[13:47] <strAlan> UF down again....$()*!@#@!
[13:49] <sajuuk_> where is interfaces.conf?
[13:49] <Blaise> Can someone help me please, I've lost all sound after my last update in Hardy
[13:50] <Mpole> ActionParsnip: this could be of some use to us... [   96.307324] hub 5-0:1.0: Cannot enable port 1.  Maybe the USB cable is bad?
[13:50] <strAlan> sajuuk_, it's in /etc/network/interfaces
[13:50] <strAlan> sajuuk_, but it's not a .conf file
[13:50] <strAlan> sajuuk_, well, it is a .conf file but it doesn't end in .conf

[13:52] <AdvoWork> hi there, anyone here installed 3.0.2 version of ekiga? it wont upgrade.. i removed it from package manager and doing sudo apt-get install ekiga and it still gets the old version
[13:52] <Mpole> ActionParsnip: we're trying to see if another cable will do
[13:52] <strAlan> Blaise, can you try that and see if any of the other sound drivers work ?
[13:52] <Blaise> Mpole: I do as far as I'm aware, at least I did before I recently performed a system updated
[13:53] <Harvey9848769> Hi all. Can someone help me. I installed linux on my laptop 2 years ago and now am selling it and have discovered that the CD that comes with it isnt a full windows instal disk, just a kind of windows xp lite cd. Can I use my friends OEM windows xp disk and then just register it with the code I already have or will this mess up his windows. I buying Dell with Ubuntu in a few days...
[13:53] <roadtest> Hi! I'm doing a voice conference, does anyone have tried to multicast using speak-freely?
[13:53] <Blaise> strAlan: I can open the panel and everything is set to autodetect, if I try test I get an error "... Failed to connect stream: invalid argument" this is the same if I select a driver
[13:53] <ActionParsnip> Mpole: i think its due to the update, you could always attatch it to another system on your LAN and access it that way ;)
[13:54] <Mpole> ActionParsnip: thanks. you're a real guru man! :-)
[13:54] <strAlan> Harvey9848769, did you reboot your machine ?
[13:54] <paritosh1010> I cannot setup grub on my MBR of hdd. It says "Cannot Mount selected partition". anybody????
[13:54] <ActionParsnip> Mpole: I just think outside the box
[13:54] <Pici> Harvey9848769: Thats not really a topic for an Ubuntu support channel. Try asking in ##windows
[13:55] <mib_qsl36e7h> hey guys, ho can i set up or start a virtual keyboard in ubuntu 8.10
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> paritosh1010: check /etc/fstab is correct
[13:55] <shauno> Harvey9848769: while you'll probably get a better answer in ##windows  (hint;), I believe it's kosher to apply your licence to any copy of the same product your licence covers
[13:55] <Harvey9848769> strAlan i completely stripped windows off it with a clean ubuntu install...:(
[13:55] <Mpole> ActionParsnip: yea... i try to do the same also, that's why i prefer Linux to Windows... erm, for the graphics it MacOS X
[13:55] <Blaise> strAlan: Do you have any other ideas?
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> !info florence | mib_qsl36e7h
[13:55] <strAlan> Blaise, can you post the output of lspci | grep Audio in pastebin.com?
[13:56] <paritosh1010> ActionParsnip: im in the live cd. I don't think the fstab would matter there?
[13:56] <strAlan> Blaise, I just want to see if Ubuntu recognizes your sound card
[13:56] <Harvey9848769> ok guys, fair enough I forget, just cause I'm a ubuntu convert...doesnt mean thats the right question for here....thanks anyway
[13:56] <mib_qsl36e7h> is there a virtual keyboard built into intrepid or do i hae to install one
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> !info gok
[13:56] <Blaise> strAlan: I have no output
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> mib_qsl36e7h: its got to be installed
[13:57] <paritosh1010> ActionParsnip: im in the livecd environment...does the fsbtab matter there?
[13:57] <strAlan> Blaise, when you type just lspci it prints a long list - do you see anything recognizing an audio card ?
[13:58] <ActionParsnip> paritosh1010: no i wouldnt imagine so, did you md5 check the iso before burning?
[13:58] <mib_qsl36e7h> ubottu: thanks alot, y keyboard is broken :P
[13:58]  * Mpole wonders what on earth is a virtual keyboard!
[13:58] <geremy> hey all, I'm looking for recommendations for open source projects that are in need of documentation for my software engineering class. they should preferably be on the small side. any suggestions?
[13:59] <strAlan> geremy, did you reboot your pc and if so, how many times ?
[13:59] <Mpole> geremy: have you tried sourceforge.net?
[13:59] <jrib> geremy: #ubuntu-offtopic is more appropriate
[13:59] <paritosh1010> cannot install grub guys......it says cannot mount selected partition...anybody????
[13:59] <george_clooney> what is the second best internet browser for ubuntu? in case firefox has problems with a webpage
[13:59] <shauno> Mpole: a software, or onscreen keyboard, rather than a physical peripheral.  Useful for everything from touchscreens, to disabillities, to broken keyboards
[13:59] <sajuuk_> sipior: so copying my /etc/ folder to my new server should give it most of the old settings?
[13:59] <dr_willis> george_clooney,  opera is nice
[14:00] <Mpole> shauno: but dont you need a screen with touch capabilities to use it? lol
[14:00] <_Nike_> hello I've one dedicated server (ubuntu) and I've access with ssh, when I open the server ./server and close the client ssh (PuTTy) he program close too =[
[14:00] <sipior> sajuuk_: yes, but you want to make sure not to overwrite anything that's already there.
[14:00] <Pici> !screen | _Nike_

[14:01] <Pici> !ru | kenter

[14:02] <sproaty> Does Nautilus have any specific flags/options set when compiled for Ubuntu?
[14:03] <sproaty> I want to try changing some source code and recompiling it, but am a bit worried
[14:03] <jrib> whatsinthename: your link does not work for me
[14:03] <mgolisch> sproaty: maybe have a look at the source package
[14:03] <mgolisch> sproaty: apt-get source nautilus
[14:03] <sproaty> yeah I downloaded the source
[14:03] <mgolisch> or whatever the actual packagename is
[14:03] <sproaty> from GNOME's FTP
[14:03] <whatsinthename> damn forum database maintainence
[14:03] <sproaty> but apt-get might get a more....specific version?
[14:04] <mgolisch> sproaty: it gets you the source package used to compile the packages
[14:04] <mib_qsl36e7h> i just installed GNOME Onscreen Keyboard, but i cant see ho to start it
[14:04] <kadet1> hi i'm a bewb  and i got probably stupid promlemm i can't uninstall ubuntu maybee some one could help me?
[14:04] <alkjflsakjf> kadet1, i'm a bewb too
[14:04] <alkjflsakjf>  can I help you?
[14:04] <jrib> kadet1: are you trying to install windows or something?
[14:04] <kadet1> yes
[14:04] <prosecuted> hello
[14:05] <dr_willis> kadet1,  clarify exactly how you installed and what you are wanting to do
[14:05] <_Nike_> toi list the process is "ps" ????????
[14:05] <prosecuted> to all
[14:05] <kadet1> i got ubunty yhat i installed from cd image
[14:05] <_Nike_> is very strange
[14:05] <jrib> _Nike_: ps -ef   is usually more useful
[14:05] <dr_willis> _Nike_,  the ps command can  do that.. and it has a lot of options
[14:05] <_Nike_> jrib because "ps" don't show the server , and the server is running
[14:05] <kadet1> with daemon tools
[14:05] <dr_willis> _Nike_,  learn to use the 'ps' command..
[14:06] <Pici> ndo: cat /etc/resolv.conf for your nameserver
[14:06] <oCean_> _Nike_: what is it that you want to do?
[14:06] <jrib> kadet1: we know that already.  Tell us what other operating systems you have installed.  Did you install ubuntu *inside* windows using wubi?
[14:06] <kadet1> no ill try explain it more cerfully
[14:06] <prosecuted> i recently added an additional hd as a slave drive,would two hard disks add additional heat on my cpu?
[14:06] <DefamedPrawn> anyone else here using an imac?
[14:06] <dr_willis> prosecuted,  a little more in the case, but proberly not much.
[14:06] <jrib> DefamedPrawn: best to just ask the channel your question.  If someone knows the answer, they will try to help you
[14:06] <_Nike_> oCean_ I want see the process running
[14:07] <sajuuk_> sipior: it looks good
[14:07] <DefamedPrawn> jrib that was my question.
[14:07] <cetanhota> Hello, I want to list the contents of a directory and I only want to see the files from Oct 2007, I know I can ls -l | grep Oct, but how would I go to just get the files from 2007?
[14:07] <Mpole> DefamedPrawn: yes, i am
[14:07] <jrib> DefamedPrawn: "yes".  Now you see why your question is not really a question.  Anyway, I have to go now
[14:07] <DefamedPrawn> Mpole how's the audio? I have heaps of problems with mine.
[14:07] <prosecuted> i see coz my computer keeps restarting just a while ago and i ended up removing the side panels
[14:07] <oCean_> _Nike_: normally "ps auxww |grep commandname" would do. However, you also said something about remote server and closing the connection...
[14:07] <ndo> Pici: ty
[14:08] <DefamedPrawn> Mpole ps, there's an #ubuntu-mactel channel. there's two of us.
[14:08] <techlife> is this the location where i can post questions regarding ubuntu server?
[14:08] <Mpole> DefamedPrawn: what problems? generally, iMac's internal speakers arent really good for anything, that's why external speakers are recommended.
[14:08] <Pici> techlife: Here and/or #ubuntu-server
[14:08] <techlife> thnx
[14:08] <brianfreud> Before I ask, I should say, I'm relatively new to Ubuntu and Linux.  Can anyone tell me if update-apt-xapian-index needs to run?  I've been seeing massive slowdowns lately, and have traced it to update-apt-xapian-index - currently 40% of cpu and 15% of RAM, running for 67 minutes
[14:09] <kadet1> jrib it was installation on vista and it said that is will be like another porogramm which afterr all i can unninstall i made spetial partition for that system  now there just this os there unninstall file as well but it doesn't work
[14:09] <DefamedPrawn> Mpole well for a start, when I try running apps like Audacity, sometimes the audio just dies. And I can't get it to come back up. not even with pulseaudio -D
[14:09] <Blaise> strAlan: Hi, yes, there is a report of an Aduio device: Intel High Definition Audio Controller
[14:10] <Mpole> DefamedPrawn: r u running ubuntu on ur iMac?
[14:10] <DefamedPrawn> Mpole I am indeed madam/sir. Yes.
[14:10] <DefamedPrawn> 8.10
[14:10] <Blaise> strAlan: http://pastebin.com/m6be291e9
[14:10] <ndo> Pici: you know  "NETSTAT -R"  is what i was searching for i guess. :)
[14:10] <techlife> since im here..i am running ubuntu server 7.04 feisty and when i go to run apt-get update i receive errors back regarding 404 not found and the ip..basically what i am looking for is a working sources.list file for this version. any suggestions?
[14:11] <amortvigil> hello what does an VNET0 interface mean in ifconfig?
[14:11] <Mpole> DefamedPrawn: wow! i havent tried... it's sir... how did u set it up? i'd like to know.
[14:11] <kadet1> jrib i dont now what wubi is)) sorry
[14:11] <Commie_Cary> techlife, upgrade to 7.10? or better yey 8.10
[14:11] <dr_willis> kadet1,  WUBI is the 'feature' to install Ubuntu 'under' windows as if it was a normakl program.
[14:11] <dr_willis> !wubi | kadet1
[14:12] <DefamedPrawn> Mpole there's some app you install in OSX to give you a grubb like menu at the beginning. Why not come into #ubuntu-mactel and we can talk about it there?
[14:12] <dr_willis> kadet1,  a lot of people really HATE wubi.
[14:12] <george_clooney> how can I install adobe flash player 10 for ubuntu x64 ?
[14:12] <kadet1> yes i think it was wubi
[14:12] <alkjflsakjf> whaats wrong with wubee?
[14:12] <Mpole> DefamedPrawn: ok
[14:12] <kadet1> i used cd image that i opend with daemon tools and i did that from there
[14:12] <techlife> right..but since the urls are no longer valid in da sources.list file it will not be possible to upgrade.
[14:13] <dr_willis> kadet1,  them it should have a add/remove feature... from what i hear..     whats the actual propglem with it?  You should be able to remve it as you remove any thing else in windows
[14:13] <Blaise> strAlan: So it seems I do have my Audio card detected, any ideas what to do next?
[14:13] <Mpole> are we allowed to ask questions about games in here? for example, how do i install Open Arena on my Ubuntu laptop?
[14:14] <kadet1> remuve it using some kind ov unninstaller?
[14:14] <kadet1> or bcause bild in unninstaller doesn't work proorley
[14:14] <dr_willis> kadet1,  it should have an icon in the add/remove programs  tool of windows.. same as any other windows application you have installed.. thats sort of the whole point of wubi
[14:14] <kadet1> properly)) sorry about my english
[14:14] <Blaise> Mpole: You can install Open Arena through the Add/Remove Applications program in your Applications launcher
[14:15] <dr_willis> kadet1,  ive never used it. so cant tell you how well it works..    check the   http://wubi-installer.org/support.php pages for help i guess.
[14:15] <kadet1> dr_willis cheers
[14:15] <amortvigil> is the forum real in maintenace or hacked??: http://ubuntuforums.org/
[14:16] <Blaise> Hi guys, I don't have any sound after a recent update, it seems to fail to open the audio device, lspci does detect my audio card though (Intel) http://pastebin.com/m6be291e9  Can anyone offer any help on this?
[14:16] <Mpole> Blaise: by searching for it, right? what are the graphics requirement for it? am not sure whether i have a 3D graphics card on my laptop
[14:17] <Blaise> Mpole: the best way to find out is to install it and try it
[14:18] <shal3r> How to install KDE3 on Ubuntu (not kubuntu) 8.10 ?
[14:18] <Mpole> Blaise: sounds like a winner. (does your nickname refer to the super spy Modesty Blaise by the way? lol)
[14:18] <shams> hi, what is your opinion about this server: http://www.bytemark.co.uk/page/Live/hosting/dedicated/atom
[14:18] <shams> can it serve a big websites with php, mysql and apache? do you think that how many visitors can visit from our sites in one time?
[14:18] <ziroday> shal3r: kde3 is no longer a supported under 8.10. You can find out your option in #kubuntu
[14:18] <Blaise> Mpole: no, it's the name for the saint of soar throats and coughs
[14:19] <ziroday> shal3r: I believe there is a kde3 repo, but am not certain :)
[14:19] <shal3r> ziroday, ok, thanks.  You can change it in ccsm
[14:19] <Mpole> Blaise: lol.
[14:19] <chilli0> Is there a program that can make all of my music files smaller?
[14:19] <whatsinthename> can anyone please help me with the following problem http://paste.ubuntu.com/105553/
[14:20] <Pici> chilli0: gzip?
[14:20] <george_clooney> ziroday, if you mean "snapping windows" i have disabled it
[14:20] <chilli0> Pici:  i need it to stay in a folder normal one , i want the files smaller
[14:21] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[14:21] <dakira> Hi, is there a central setting with which I can set my sound output from stereo to mono?
[14:21] <dakira> I'm using Gnome
[14:21] <ziroday> george_clooney: well thats the setting. You sure that its actually disabled?
[14:21] <fosco_> george_clooney: ccsm - wobly windows - dissable snap inverted checkbox
[14:21] <ziroday> chilli0: you could convert them to a different format or a lower bitrate
[14:22] <Pici> chilli0: Smaller files generally means lower quality, you are aware of that, right?
[14:22] <chilli0> ziroday:  i wanna do that , but is there a program that will do it in bulk? i have over 500 songs here
[14:22] <chilli0> and yes Pici
[14:22] <ActionParsnip> chilli0: find and exec ;)
[14:22] <george_clooney> fosco_, thx, much better now
[14:23] <chilli0> ActionParsnip:  pardon?
[14:23] <ziroday> chilli0: err you could look into soundconverter/soundkonverter. Can't remember if it does exactly what you want
[14:23] <chilli0> k
[14:23] <dakira> Is there a possibility to set sound-output to mono in Gnome?
[14:23] <ActionParsnip> chilli0: find -name '*.mp3' -exec (do conversion on file found which will be named {} )
[14:24] <chilli0> i have over 500 songs
[14:24] <techlife> what i ended up doing is changing da word feisty to gutsy in da sources.list file and an update appears to be working..thnx
[14:24] <chilli0> to many
[14:24] <Blaise> The Ubuntu forums are down, is there a mirror or cached version I can see them on?
[14:24] <jrib> Blaise: google cache
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> chilli0: the command will rifle throug the folder and subfolders and do whatever you say in the exec bit to any 8.mp3 files
[14:25] <ziroday> Blaise: you can try google cache or archive.org. However there is not official cache
[14:25] <Blaise> jrib: ziroday: thanks
[14:26]  * lenin anyone knows how I can uninstall or remove  FireFox2 ?  I am running Intrepid Ibex with latest firefox upgraded
[14:26] <|O|Sad> is there a way to raise volume in gnome from the terminal and have a display thing on the screen as if it were from the multimedia keys on the keyboard???
[14:26] <ziroday> lenin: how did you install firefox 2?
[14:26] <Runpain2> God Day All!!I need Help with firefox not connecting to internet but my updater is downloading updates i am running Ubuntu CE 8.04 on a olde dell desktop  with ethernet connection
[14:27] <imyousuf> Hi
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> lenin: sudo apt-get remove firefox-2.0
[14:27] <Mpole> Runpain2: how old?
[14:27] <knut> is there a way to run apple applications on ubuntu? like itunes?
[14:27] <lenin> thanks ActionParsnip im trying
[14:28] <ziroday> knut: an old version of windows itunes can be run with wine, why do you want to run it?
[14:28] <Runpain2> about 6years Mpole
[14:28] <scunizi> !itunes | knut
[14:28] <Mpole> knut: well, there is a pretty good iTunes alternative... sudo apt-get install songbird will work
[14:28] <Feyzir> The sound on my ubuntu 8.10 64bit has stopped working. It was fine for a few installs and then no more sound
[14:28] <Runpain2> it runs great though a little slow
[14:28] <knut> ziroday, because rhythmbox has no coverflow
[14:28] <Feyzir> it is a realtek HD audio thing
[14:28] <Feyzir> works fine in vista
[14:28] <paritosh1010> ActionParsnip: hey man...im still stuck on that grub error 17. it keeps saying cannot mount selected partition when i say setup (hd0)
[14:28] <Mpole> Runpain2: what's the CPU?
[14:28] <knut> i want coverflow for nautilus
[14:28] <knut> :)
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> lenin: you'll probably find that 3 upgrade 2, you could always uninstall both then just install 3 if its a no go
[14:28] <ziroday> knut: ah, I think the only linux app with coverflow is songbird.
[14:29] <Runpain2> 1.8ghz mpole
[14:29] <Kartagis> why would sound disappear all of a sudden?
[14:29] <knut> why is there no appliction like wine for mac?
[14:29] <scunizi> ziroday, knut maybe amorak
[14:29] <Mpole> Runpain2: RAM?
[14:29] <knut> to meulate mac
[14:29] <ziroday> knut: because there isn't. You can start one if you like.
[14:29] <lenin> @ActionParsnip E: Couldn't find package firefox-2.0
[14:29] <Runpain2> 256
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> paritosh1010: do you get that error when booting live cd is weird
[14:30] <Mpole> sonbird virtually emulates iTunes... it's the best player ever!
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> lenin: dpkg -l | grep firefox will help
[14:30] <scunizi> knut, why would you need wine for mac? what is it you need to run on a mac that might require wine?
[14:30] <Feyzir> any ideas on how to get my sound back :/
[14:30] <lenin> ActionParsnip : that would uninstall all instance of firefox I'll lose data of the latest version
[14:30] <knut> scunizi: i mean an application the emulates mac instead of windows
[14:30] <Absolute0> Is it possible to remove the ubuntu splash screen st boot time?
[14:30] <Absolute0> at
[14:30] <Runpain2> actully how do find out system info mpole
[14:31] <scunizi> knut, ah..
[14:31] <Kartagis> [jack.c:201] error: Failed to open jack client: 0x1 / [pulse.c:85] error: Failed to open pulse audio output: Connection refused / [audio.c:561] error: failed to open audio device / [audio.c:179] error: Unable to find a working output module in this list: alsa,oss,esd,jack,pulse,nas,arts / [audio.c:463] error: Failed to open audio output module / [mpg123.c:757] error: Failed to initialize output, goodbye. <--- i get this
[14:31] <ziroday> Absolute0: what would you rather instead?
[14:31] <Ins|de> hello
[14:31] <fosco_> Absolute0: yes, remove any "splash" word in menu.lst
[14:31] <Mpole> Runpain2: oh, that's why u r using CE. i'd advise - if u can - upping the ram to 1GB then u will be "home free"
[14:31] <knut> Absolute0: install startupmanager and disable splashscreen
[14:31]  * lenin anyone can help me about  KDE keyboard-shortcut settings?
[14:31] <knut> scunizi: u know one?
[14:31] <knut> :)
[14:32] <Kartagis> any help for me?
[14:32] <imyousuf> I am using GeForce Go 7300 TurboCache VGA with Hardy, I recently upgraded from Fiesty and after that I can not find any suitable VGA driver, can anyone suggest me one, please? I am using it with Acer Aspire 5585WXMi.
[14:32] <Kartagis> i don't want to have to reboot just to get sound working
[14:32] <Runpain2> how do i find out about System Info in term
[14:32] <Pici> Runpain2: sudo lshw
[14:32] <Mpole> Runpain2: r u on GNOME?
[14:32] <Ins|de> is it possible to avoid a certain physical memory range to being used?
[14:32] <ziroday> imyousuf: System > Administration > Hardware Drivers doesn't showing anything?
[14:32] <knut> Kartagis: you can log out and in
[14:33] <Pici> lenin: You'd probably be better off asking in #kubuntu
[14:33] <Kartagis> knut, I don't want to have to do that either
[14:33] <imyousuf> ziroday: yes it does
[14:33] <|O|Sad> is there any sound related Ubuntu channel??
[14:33] <ziroday> imyousuf: okay, well have you installed the graphics drivers for it?
[14:33] <knut> Kartagis: dont know how to solve you problem then
[14:33] <|O|Sad> or gnome?
[14:34] <dakira> imyousuf: you can try "nv" as a driver.. then perform the upgrade to intrepid and with that I would just try removing the xorg.conf since the X-Server is supposed to manage everything by itself then.
[14:34] <Mpole> Runpain2: try System / Administration / System Monitor
[14:34] <imyousuf> It shows NVidia driver, but even that does not work properly
[14:34] <scunizi> knut, nope.. but mac is based in unix with apple's personal tweeks.. their system is very similar to linux.. so if you're a programmer or tinker-er, you might be able to port programs over, develop something that will allow them to run like wine or simply use a different program that is designed for linux.  That's why I've stayed away from ipod's/touches etc.. to  locked it.
[14:34] <ziroday> imyousuf: well what does not work? Is the driver even installed?
[14:35] <imyousuf> yes I installed it and it was showing In use and enabled ziroday but when the system reboots it complains of inappropriate vga card and moves into the backup selector mode
[14:35] <scunizi> knut, not sure if it's available for the touch but rockbox is available for ipods.. I understand it's a good alternative to apples interface and opens the ipod up so even ogg files will play
[14:35] <Kartagis> does anyone know how to solve my problem?
[14:35] <dakira> imyousuf: in the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf in the device section you set the driver to "nv" (instead of "nvidia").. that is some kind of a failsafe.. now upgrade to intrepid and then delete the file alltogether
[14:35] <imyousuf> dakira: I want to stick to Hardy because its LTS
[14:36] <Runpain2> ok i got hardware says memory:501.6MB processor:Celeron(coppermine)
[14:36] <ziroday> imyousuf: okay, can you login and logout after installing the graphics drivers
[14:36] <imyousuf> dakira: IIRC nv is the OpenSource NVidia driver right?
[14:36] <dakira> imyousuf: right
[14:36] <imyousuf> ziroday: I can try that
[14:37] <Feyzir> yay for sounds problems
[14:37] <imyousuf> ziroday: trying that now
[14:37] <Runpain2> its just that firefox will not connect to internet through ethernet
[14:37] <knut> scunizi: i need it on my laptop
[14:37] <scunizi> imyousuf, the 7 series cards, some had issues with the 173 & 177 driver.  You might need to do what I did and install the 180.xx driver you get directly from nvidia.. helped me bunches.. I have an 8200 gforce
[14:37] <knut> scunizi: simply ubuntuhave itunes for
[14:37] <Runpain2> every thing elese runs fine sound disply
[14:37] <eoke> Quick question on samba server where should the none user specific shares go? /var /home etc
[14:38] <Mpole> Runpain2: it's NOT firefox that connects to the internet, rather, your entire PC... is it a desktop? perhaps ur network card is kaputt!
[14:38] <imyousuf> scunizi: can you provide me with some pointers?
[14:38] <scunizi> knut, virtual box and an install of windows will allow you to install itunes
[14:38] <Dre4m> can someone please tell me what the best audio player for ubuntu is?
[14:38] <Runpain2> no cause i am right now updating and it is working
[14:38] <imyousuf> scunizi, ziroday & dakira, rebooting
[14:38] <Dre4m> i cant seem to get a good answer
[14:39] <Dre4m> amarok?
[14:39] <Mpole> Runpain2: bravo!
[14:39] <Jeruvy> !poll | Dre4m
[14:39] <dr_willis> eoke,  Huh? You can edit the smb.conf file and make  shares whever you want..  Why do you wan tto 'share' system directries like /var/ ? that  could be a big secuity issue
[14:39] <Runpain2> the updater not firefox
[14:39] <Dre4m> wtf
[14:39] <knut> scunizi: i dont want to start a virtual pc just to listen to music
[14:39] <Runpain2> fire fox comes up and any web page i go to will not load
[14:40] <knut> scunizi: then rhythmbox would be neough
[14:40] <Jack_Sparrow> Dre4m, Please dont use the rude shorthand.  It isnt needed or allowed
[14:40] <scunizi> knut, naw.. just to sync  there are tools to rip the music out of the ipod database in linux and play it. drm is an issue
[14:40] <Dre4m> lmao
[14:40] <Jack_Sparrow> !lol
[14:40] <Dre4m> friendly linux community,
[14:40] <bmunger> why has ubuntu missed the alpha 3 schedule?
[14:40] <eoke> dr_willis: Sorry I didn't explain that so well, I'm about to partition a machine for serving up files.  I would like to know whether none user specific file shares should be created in something like /var/Music or something like /home/samba/Music.  It's so I can size the partition appropriately if that makes any sense.
[14:40] <Runpain2> HEy Jack_Sparrow
[14:40] <psicobra> does any one know anything about synce i keep getting this error Nautilus cannot handle "synce" locations
[14:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Morning (here) Runpain2
[14:41] <Runpain2> Here here also
[14:41] <sproaty> why does Gedit always leave these [filename]~ files of what I've been editing after I close it
[14:41] <scunizi> sun's just coming up here.
[14:41] <Dre4m> if this isnt to OMG OR LMAO like nor to "poll like" . . would someone be able to tell me how to set a particular music player as a default appplication?
[14:41] <Runpain2> My Firefox says failed to connect
[14:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Dre4m, system, pref, preferd applications
[14:42] <sproaty> Dr4m: right click the file, properties, open with and then select the radio button for that application
[14:42] <scunizi> Dre4m, System/preferences/multimedia
[14:42] <ziroday> sproaty: its a safety measure in case gedit crashes whilst editing a file
[14:42] <psicobra> Runpain2, untick work offline?
[14:42] <dr_willis> eoke,  samba shares could be made to go anywhere.. so it dosent matter.
[14:42] <Runpain2> cuold it be dansgaurd

[14:43] <eoke> dr_willis: Ok cheers, I figured there would be a standard place but I guess not.  It'd explain why I couldn't find an answer with google as well.  Thanks for your times most appreciated.
[14:43] <Runpain2> it is
[14:43] <dakira> sproaty: the files that end with ~ are generally backup files. a lot of editors do that, but you can disable it
[14:43] <sproaty> ah thanks
[14:43] <sproaty> it never seems to delete them
[14:44] <psicobra> Runpain2, then if your sure you are connected to internet on that machine i would guess something blocking port 80

[14:44] <dakira> sproaty: nope.. it won't ;) imagine you edit a system file and something goes wrong.. in that case you still have the backup that was autogenerated.. if you want to handle backups yourself you can disable that stuff
[14:44] <Jeruvy> !lamp > hero

[14:47] <Jeruvy> synthe_ciser: check in /var/log/samba/log.smbd for errors
[14:47] <Jaffarkelshac> i will give it a try thanks

[14:48] <synthe_ciser> Jeruvy, ERROR: Could not determine network interfaces, you must use a interfaces config line
[14:48] <Bokenrosie> Hello, I'm pretty new to this.  I'm looking for a way to make changes to menu.lst from within th GUI.  I have been able to do it using sudu gedit from the terminal window but is there a way to stay in GUI?
[14:48] <slobad23> how do i get a basic installation of gnome on my ubuntu server?
[14:49] <Pici> mattias_: dpkg -L festival   will show you
[14:49] <Kartagis> does anyone know how to solve my problem?
[14:49] <Kartagis> i don't want to have to reboot just to get sound working
[14:49] <mattias_> nice, thanks
[14:49] <mattias_> ill try it
[14:49] <scunizi> Bokenrosie, no..
[14:49] <Kartagis> or log out and back in
[14:49] <kane77> is something like that possible: I have small home network (4-5 PC's) and PC's get addresses by dhcp. I would like to know if it would be possible to map name for device (eg. "computer in my room" :) ) to it's mac address and then use that instead of ip (which changes for each device)
[14:49] <mattias_> what does dpkg mean?
[14:49] <Slart> Bokenrosie: not that it's much of a difference but you can press Alt+F2 and then run gksudo gedit...
[14:49] <Jeruvy> synthe_ciser: there you go, it cannot find your network.  Review 'adding interfaces' in documentation, should be in /etc/networks/samba.conf (if I recalled the file name correctly)
[14:49] <Pici> mattias_: Its a command.
[14:49] <bebin> hi i have very low volume in front headphone which is connected to my front slot  what could be the problem
[14:49] <qqx> could someone please tell me why most java apps crash firefox?
[14:49] <mattias_> i know, but it must be an abbrevation of something
[14:50] <Slart> Bokenrosie: there is also a gui dialog that lets you change some of the stuff in the menu.lst.. hang on, let me check the name
[14:50] <qqx> could someone please tell me why most java apps crash FF?
[14:50] <Pici> Kartagis: You may want to ask in #ubuntustudio as well, as jack comes with a studio install.
[14:50] <imyousuf> scunizi, ziroday, dakira: back online, the restricted driver seems to be able to render 1024x768

[14:51] <Akos_beginner> Can I change fwbuilder default drop policy somewhere?
[14:51] <bmunger> thanks
[14:51] <scunizi> imyousuf, can or cannot start from suspend.. you might need to increase your swap size to 1.5x of your ram to make that happen smoothly
[14:51] <_anu> DDD error http://codepad.org/0yzKOvbS
[14:52] <_anu> how to fix it ?
[14:52] <tyler_d1> ok so you know how if a machines host key changes, you need to remove `$HOME/.ssh/known_hosts` in order to connect, I was hoping that there would be a way to just remove the one key that does not match... however I don't see any way of cyphering the content... anyone?
[14:52] <Kartagis> !jaunty
[14:52] <imyousuf> scunizi: I see, but even then it used to work fine on fiesty :(
[14:53] <bebin> hi i have very low volume in front headphone which is connected to my front slot  what could be the problem
[14:53] <KenBW2> i know this isn' an ubuntu-specific problem, but everything on my screen seems darker than it should be, and the brightness and contrast are set to Max on my monitor. Any ideas?
[14:53] <heatmzzr> walpopaz... where would i find the file so I can start it automatically.. dont know where the executable is..............
[14:53] <tyler_d1> KenBW2: the power is dirty (to the monitor) or its on its way out
[14:53] <Bokenrosie> quibbler, thanks.  that worked.
[14:54] <quibbler> Bokenrosie, you are welcome
[14:54] <KenBW2> tyler_d1: no, not really dark, just a bit
[14:54] <gizmo> can i ask how to use evolution mail in ubuntu?
[14:54] <tyler_d1> KenBW2: still... my first guess would be on its way out... mine started that 2 months ago and just died last week
[14:55] <KenBW2> gizmo: with which email provider?
[14:55] <KandK> Hello, I am having a problem with Firefox in Ubuntu 8.10, should I join a different discussion or is this the place to be?
[14:55] <KenBW2> tyler_d1: well it's been like this for years#
[14:55] <gizmo> KenBW2, hotmail can?
[14:55] <scunizi> heatmzzr, I think what you really need is just the name of the executable to start it.. there's a way to find that using grep but I've forgotten.. most executable's are in /bin or /usr/bin but even that's no guarantee
[14:55] <quibbler> KandK, what is the problem
[14:56] <KenBW2> gizmo: hotmail doesn't allow viewing email outside hotmail (or outlook)
[14:56] <_anu> hi :)
[14:56] <_anu> anyone can help me ?
[14:56] <_anu> http://codepad.org/0yzKOvbS
[14:56] <KandK> quibbler: whenever a video comes up, it will play for about 2 seconds, then it will stop playing and Firefox will freeze up
[14:56] <tyler_d1> KenBW2: you could try a different connection ie. analog vs digital, outside of that don't think there's much you can do.
[14:56] <gizmo> KenBW2, what emel that i can use for launchpad?
[14:56] <heatmzzr> scunizi, thanks I'll start there...
[14:56] <KenBW2> gizmo: i use gmail

[14:57] <KenBW2> tyler_d1: ive played with Nvidia's settings, but can't seem to get it quite right
[14:57] <KenBW2> tyler_d1: do you know what gamma is?
[14:57] <scunizi> mib_36bxh1y4, first go to system>admin>hardware drivers and enable the restricted driver.

[15:03] <mib_36bxh1y4> scunizi: thanks
[15:03] <KandK> quibbler: YouTube videos don't freeze up the computer it seems like, but they still only play for a couple of seconds

[15:07] <crazy_pete>  sorry to bother but i am  a redhat user helping out some friends with ubuntu, does ubuntu divide its library packages into say glibc and glibc-devel like redhat does, and if so, what are the devel packages named? (Or are they just named devel?)
[15:07] <eraggo> it starts, runs and anythubng else...
[15:07] <KandK> quibbler: it freezes Firefox and I have to force quit
[15:08] <Slart> eraggo: you've tried looking in the wine configuration app?
[15:08] <xmyuan_> !eva
[15:08] <eraggo> yea
[15:08] <Slart> eraggo: tried enableing the "Emulate a virtual desktop" option?
[15:08] <eraggo> i think so... lets try..
[15:09] <eraggo> 800x600 should be fine
[15:09] <Jeruvy> crazy_pete: yes it does
[15:09] <shauno> crazy_pete: usually just libfoo-dev
[15:09] <xmyuan_> who can tell me what software the 'eva' is
[15:09] <eraggo> still gone to full screen
[15:09] <Jeruvy> crazy_pete: see https://packages.ubuntu.com for information on packages or online searches or use synaptic on ubuntu
[15:09] <Slart> xmyuan_: you mean the space mmorpg game?
[15:09] <dimm> hi! who can hwlp with lirc setup?
[15:10] <crazy_pete> ty very very much Jeruvy
[15:10] <oCean_> eraggo: wine starts fullscreen, or the game starts fullscreen?
[15:10] <synthe_ciser> hm damn disconnect...
[15:10] <Dre4m> Firstly can I just apologise to any one I offended with my language I didn't mean to, especially jack_sparrow ty for unbanning me, I had no idea about not using "ENTER" to kinda space out what i was saying was so annoying, nor did I about swearing, I love ubuntu IRC ad linux IRC . . sorry to all of you if I offended anyone
[15:10] <eraggo> idk :D
[15:10] <overdub> http://www.ihasaids.com/upload/data/1229313488.gif
[15:10] <synthe_ciser> Jeruvy, mh there is no /etc/networks/samba.conf? :x
[15:10] <xmyuan_> no,i am install 'eva. and i don't know how to stop it
[15:10] <eraggo> game is atleast fullscreen
[15:10] <synthe_ciser> Jeruvy, you probably meant /etc/samba/smb.conf right?
[15:10] <quibbler> KandK, how much free space do you have on your / partition?
[15:10] <Slart> eraggo: hmm.. have you checked the application database? http://appdb.winehq.org?
[15:11] <Jeruvy> synthe_ciser: my bad memory, doh...ok let me get you the right name.
[15:11] <KandK> quibbler: 112 GB
[15:11] <oCean_> eraggo: isn't there an option in the game, *not* to run fullscreen?
[15:11] <Slart> Dre4m: nice to see someone actually apologizing
[15:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Dre4m, Welcome back.. apology accepted and appreciated..  Thanks..   Now on with the Q & A 's     yaaaaaay
[15:11] <synthe_ciser> Jeruvy, interface names are normally preferred
[15:11] <synthe_ciser> ;   interfaces = <IP_ADDRESS>/8 eth0 is this right?
[15:11] <Slart> Dre4m: =)
[15:11] <Jeruvy> synthe_ciser: ok, /etc/samba/samba.conf.
[15:11] <eraggo> no options menu or so :D
[15:12] <quibbler> KandK, what version of flash are you using?
[15:12] <eraggo> or wait :d
[15:12] <Dre4m> ye sorry guys, wont ever happen again I assure you. I should have read the rules first
[15:12] <KandK> quibbler: not sure, how do I check?
[15:12] <Jeruvy> synthe_ciser: no
[15:13] <KenBW2> what's "gamma" wrt graphics?
[15:13] <KandK> quibbler: found it, 10.0 r15
[15:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Dre4m, SO what would you like to work on first.. the cool cube spinning thing ..  adding apps, ask away
[15:13] <eraggo> not even config files :(:(
[15:13] <Slart> KenBW2: it's a value that says something about how bright stuff is
[15:13] <KenBW2> Slart: as opposed to, er, brightness?
[15:13] <Slart> KenBW2: higer value means brighter things
[15:13] <synthe_ciser> Jeruvy, i use static ip's here.. I have two connections, Auto eth0 with DHCP and another with my static ip configuration.
[15:13] <xmyuan_> slart, how can i stop installing it
[15:13] <Dre4m> ehehehehe, I got the spinning cube working yesterday :), scared me though hehe I was just writting my question . .
[15:13] <Slart> KenBW2: brightness also has to do with.. ahem.. brightness.. but it's a different thing
[15:14] <synthe_ciser> Jeruvy, thats not right? do i have to change it ?
[15:14] <Dre4m> Ok I was wondering if someone could help . . . I have downloaded exaile music player and I can't seem to find out how to set it as a default music player for when I double click an MP3 for example it loads up exaile.  im using ubuntu
[15:14] <KenBW2> Slart: is brightness a way of adding more white, whereas gamma is brightening the actual colours??
[15:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Dre4m, ctrl-alt-left mouse move mouse will thrill your windows friends
[15:14] <Slart> KenBW2: read here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_correction
[15:14] <quibbler> KandK, enough room newest flash....did this just happen now or has it been always so?
[15:15] <KenBW2> Slart: d'oh, shouldve thought of looking there :) thanks
[15:15] <KandK> quibbler: just started last week, been running 8.10 since a couple of weeks after it came out
[15:15] <Slart> KenBW2: you're welcome
[15:15] <Dre4m> haha!, I just did it omg that was amazing ty jack sparrow can't wait to show my gf hehe (a vista user), ty
[15:15] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[15:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Dre4m, You have 4 sides to your cube right
[15:16] <Slart> KenBW2: it seems, after reading that page, that it is a value describing contrast not brightness.. I'll go sit in the corner with the pointy hat until I've read it =)
[15:17] <Jeruvy> synthe_ciser: you need to edit the interfaces line (and use bind-interfaces) to specify the network.  So whichever adapter is handling your connections (eth0) should be there with the network cidr there also
[15:17] <Dre4m> jack_sparrow . . You wont belive this, (firstly yes I do have 4 sides) I spent a whole evening yesterday trying to get help and all I needed to know was the CTRL ALT thing you just said lol, im soooooooooooooooo happy now ty so much omg spent so long trying to do that.
[15:17] <quibbler> KandK, I've been looking on the internet however the ubuntu forums are down
[15:18] <Some_ux> Hi, can i add to iptables a filter on an interface that is not yet up (ppp0) ?
[15:18] <synthe_ciser> Jeruvy, network cidr?
[15:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Dre4m, See your pm.
[15:18] <KandK> quibbler: I tried clearing the cache and cookies and all of that, but it didn't help
[15:19] <Jeruvy> synthe_ciser: the example gives a local network of <IP_ADDRESS>/8, you will probably need to change that to your network
[15:19] <_anu> ddd: Symbol `_XmStrings' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking
[15:19] <_anu> ??
[15:19] <KenBW2> Slart: teehee
[15:19] <quibbler> KandK, disable all your addons and try
[15:20] <KenBW2> Slart: im trying to make darker pages less dark without making colours look washed out
[15:20] <Claire2009> hi - i have a question - if i copy all my data to my 2nd HD, can ubuntu remember permissions setup prior to reinstallation?
[15:20] <Slart> KenBW2: in Gimp?
[15:20] <Slart> Claire2009: if you use the right tool to copy them
[15:20] <Jeruvy> Claire2009: rsync for one can.
[15:20] <Claire2009> start - what's the right tool to use?
[15:20] <crazy_pete> or the right switches  Claire2009
[15:21] <crazy_pete> rsync, is one ,  cp -a is another
[15:21] <synthe_ciser> Jeruvy, so i have to enter the ip of my PC ? Or do i need to enter the ip of my router?
[15:21] <KenBW2> Slart: in everything - it's my monitor with the problem :)
[15:21] <Slart> Claire2009: I'm not really sure.. (or I would have told you), I just know that there are tools that preserve permissions and there are tools that don't
[15:21] <hero> hey guys, how can i get mysql in my ubuntu
[15:21] <synthe_ciser> Jeruvy, <IP_ADDRESS>/24 eth0 <- this is the ip of my router.
[15:21] <synthe_ciser> Jeruvy, and the netmask
[15:21] <Claire2009> all i know is i want to copy all my data to 2nd HD, then recopy it to my 1st HD after reinstall. can i do that no problem???
[15:21] <Jeruvy> synthe_ciser: thats what you want.
[15:22] <Slart> KenBW2: ah.. well.. can't really help you with that..sorry
[15:22] <KenBW2> Slart: you already have
[15:22] <synthe_ciser> Jeruvy, and now it'll work?
[15:22] <Slart> KenBW2: oh? yay for me then.. =)
[15:23] <quibbler> KandK, disable all your addons and try
[15:23] <KandK> quibbler: didn't help, should I disable extensions too?
[15:23] <oCean_> hero: start by installing the server (for example "sudo apt-get install mysql-server")
[15:23] <synthe_ciser> Jeruvy, it works, thank you :D
[15:23] <quibbler> KandK, yes
[15:24] <Claire2009> help! - can i copy all my data to my 2nd HD, then copy back to 1st HD no problem after resintall?
[15:24] <aheckler> hey all, the latest kernel upgrade in ubuntu-proposed broke my boot, can anybody help or is anyone having this problem too?
[15:24] <Some_ux> can i add a rule to iptables on an interface that is not yet up - ppp0
[15:24] <aheckler> Claire2009: yes
[15:24] <Jeruvy> synthe_ciser: cheers
[15:24] <Claire2009> aheckler - thanks.
[15:24] <Claire2009> aheckler - i'm guessing you had to do this before.
[15:24] <Mpole> Question: I have problems logging on to a Flash chatroom... could it be (a) my bandwidth is too small or (b) because I am in the process of upgrading to 8.10?
[15:25] <aheckler> Claire2009: reinstall?
[15:25] <Claire2009> aheckler - yeah.
[15:25] <KandK> quibbler: now the videos won't show up, should I reenable java or flash?
[15:25] <aheckler> Claire2009: yeah just a few times :-P
[15:25] <quibbler> KandK, yes
[15:25] <Jeruvy> Some_ux1: yes and no.  You can 'manage' rules but they typically will not load until the interface is up.
[15:26] <Claire2009> aheckler - so, before i go - i just format 1st HD to reinstall ubuntu? then after reinstall, mount 2nd HD, and just copy data??
[15:26] <Slart> Mpole: I doubt bandwidth would keep you from logging in.. but since someone decided to make a flash chatroom the probability of them being lacking in the brain department does get bigger.. so it might also be a .. "we only support windows" thing
[15:26] <aheckler> Claire2009: yep, just be careful you've moved everything onto the 2nd HD and be careful what you format
[15:27] <KandK> quibbler: enabled flash, video is still freezing after a couple of seconds
[15:27] <quibbler> KandK, type firefox -p in terminal...make a new profile and run that profile
[15:27] <Claire2009> aheckler - thanks so much. i'm quite familiar with install process, and i'll make sure to copy everything i need to 2nd HD
[15:27] <myeggo> hello, what is the way to install ubuntu in c:\ ?
[15:27] <myeggo> what is the name
[15:27] <myeggo> or the web
[15:27] <Some_ux> Jeruvy I am making a router out of my ubuntu but since the dialup connection is not always up, how can i place filters on it
[15:27] <Some_ux> ?
[15:27] <Slart> myeggo: wubi?
[15:27] <hateball> !wubi | myeggo
[15:27] <myeggo> wubi, yes
[15:27] <myeggo> thank
[15:27] <Mpole> Slart: that seems to be the most reasonable explanation. i could be a browser incompatibility issue also, because it seems M$SOFT is king in some parts of the world.
[15:28] <Artin> I am from iran
[15:28] <Claire2009> i am from canada. microsoft can go down in flames
[15:28] <Claire2009> lols
[15:28] <Slart> Mpole: yup
[15:28] <Mpole> Claire2009: i second that emotion! lol
[15:28] <bazhang> !ir | Artin
[15:28] <Claire2009> mpole - lols / ^_^
[15:28] <Mpole> am having a real hard time converting people to Ubuntu... but they will come around
[15:29] <kabukan> hi i just converted
[15:29] <KandK> quibbler: still freezing, I have no idea whats going on, sorry this is such a hassle
[15:29] <Claire2009> mpole - ubuntu 8.04 is rocking -/ loving it better than XP on older 900mhz p3s
[15:29] <Artin> vaghean?
[15:29] <Mpole> Claire2009: what part of canada r u from? am glad to meet a "female" member of the ubuntu community.
[15:29] <Mpole> kabukan: good for u!
[15:29] <Claire2009> mpole - ontario
[15:29] <kabukan> im using 8.10 is 8.4.1 better
[15:29] <Mpole> Claire2009: wow. ncie, but cold, but i LOVE cold, so it's great!
[15:29] <aheckler> hey all, the latest kernel upgrade in ubuntu-proposed broke my boot, can anybody help or is anyone having this problem too?
[15:29] <Runpain2> Sorry had to do a  couple haircuts
[15:30] <Kerio> hello
[15:30] <Pici> kabukan: 8.10 was released in October of 2008. 8.04 was released in April of 2008.
[15:30] <Mpole> kabukan: 8.4.1? is that a higher version?
[15:30] <dayo_> .
[15:30] <Ricket> i'm looking for a new theme for my ubuntu 8.10, because i see under preferences>appearance that you can install a new theme. but what type of theme do i need? like for instance gnome-look.org has a whole bunch of different types, what do I download to change the appearance of windows and such?
[15:30] <Artin> farsi sohbat konid
[15:30] <Mpole> lol... typo
[15:30] <Claire2009> mpole - yep. it's chilly. but mild where i am next week
[15:30] <kabukan> maybe 8.04 idk like i said im new
[15:30] <Slart> Claire2009, Mpole: there is an offtopic channel.. let's try to keep this channel for support only
[15:30] <Pici> Mpole: no. Release numbers are from the date they are released. so: 2008/04 or 2008/10
[15:30] <Slart> !ot
[15:30] <Claire2009> well, gotta go
[15:30] <Kerio> busyboc starts after i disconnected a hard drive (which doesnt contain any linuxOS)
[15:30] <Mpole> Claire2009: moving to where?
[15:30] <Kerio> cant get passed it
[15:30] <Jeruvy> Some_ux: same as all others, are you using a front end?
[15:30] <Kerio> busybox*
[15:30] <_anu> please translate them in Ubuntu :   "rpm  -iv ddd.src.rpm"  and  "rpmbuild -bb ddd.spec"   and   "rpm -iv ddd.rpm"
[15:31] <IndyGunFreak> Ricket: http://www.gnome-look.org
[15:31] <Some_ux> Jeruvy : eth0 is connected to a cable modem, eth1 to a hub
[15:31] <quibbler> KandK, I'm running out of ideas and with the forums down I can't check there...the only other idea which is radical is to uninstall firefox delete the .mozilla
[15:31] <Mpole> slart: where do i get instructions on how to install packages that are in tar format, step by step?
[15:31] <Slart> Kerio: it probably renumbered the hard drives.. you need to setup your mbr accordingly
[15:31] <Pici> _anu: What are you trying to do? Ubuntu does not support installing from RPM files.
[15:31] <Slart> !compile | Mpole
[15:31] <Ricket> IndyGunFreak: yes but there are a whole slew of different types of themes on the left side, what do i look for?
[15:31] <Mpole> thanks slart
[15:31] <Pici> _anu: Did you install ddd from an RPM?
[15:31] <IndyGunFreak> Ricket: well.... what do you want to do?
[15:32] <Slart> Mpole: but there is no general, works-for-all way.. there's usually instructions included
[15:32] <KandK> quibbler: I appreciate all of your help, I will try to search the forums when they are up, thank you anyways
[15:32] <Kerio> Slart, what should i do? try to reinstall GRUB?
[15:32] <Ricket> IndyGunFreak: i have a black background and i want to find a theme that makes window titlebars and just other colors all over more black than human-brown
[15:32] <quibbler> KandK, or you can wait for the forums to come on line and check there or ask again here
[15:32] <Slart> !grub | Kerio
[15:32] <Ienorand> kabukan: 8.04.2 is the major upgrade release to the 8.04 long-term support version (Hardy), 8.10 is meant to be more cutting edge, but less stable.
[15:32] <Slart> Kerio: check the "restore grub" link..
[15:32] <Runpain2> i enabled dansguardian and firefox worked
[15:33] <Jeruvy> Some_ux: you don't have to specify a target, you can leave that open
[15:33] <Kerio> okay thx
[15:33] <Mpole> lenorand> less stable?
[15:33] <Slart> Kerio: I don't think you need to reinstall the entire grub.. just the mbr
[15:33] <aheckler> the latest kernel upgrade in ubuntu-proposed broke my boot, can anybody help or is anyone having this problem too?
[15:33] <shauno> Ienorand: I don't think it's intended to be less stable.  it's just not supported for updates and via cannonical for the same length lifetime
[15:33] <KandK> quibbler: thanks for you help, I will try again later, bye!
[15:34] <Mpole> shauno:  i have already started the upgrade. what do i expect?
[15:34] <Some_ux> Jeruvy: eth0 connects to a dialup which in turn creates a new ppp0 interface when a link is established. So should the rules specify eth0 or ppp0 ?
[15:34] <ardchoille> aheckler: The "proposed" repos are not a good idea
[15:34] <aheckler> ardchoille: so i have discovered :(
[15:35] <Ienorand> Well, yea. But isn't LTS supposed to be somewhat more stable because of the extended support, so it works in reverse...?
[15:35] <quibbler> KandK, bye
[15:35] <Slart> Kerio: you might also have to edit your grub configuration file.. but we can do that once you're finished with the mbr
[15:35] <Jeruvy> Some_ux: they should specify whatever device is bound on your pc, if thats eth0 then use that...but you don't have to specify either.
[15:35] <mattias_> i cant remove a folder from Applications tab
[15:35] <Slart> mattias_: which folder?
[15:35] <Mpole> What version of Flash is currently the latest? Where do I get it?
[15:36] <Slart> !flash | Mpole
[15:36] <Enissay> how can i install the 3.1beta version of firefox (i'm havin the 3.05)?
[15:36] <Kerio> okay, so first i should boot with livecd i guess?
[15:36] <shauno> Ienorand: I think it's just to limit how many different configurations they're supporting at once.  if every release had fives years support, releasing every 6 months, they'd quickly be supporting 10 different products
[15:37] <Mpole> slart: u r a gem! :-)
[15:37] <Some_ux> Jeruvy: eth1 is the interface which connects to the internal network
[15:37] <ardchoille> Ienorand: LTS releases are just supported longer to minimize the upgrade frequency, good for production systems
[15:37] <Slart> Mpole: just one of many who hangs out here
[15:38] <Ienorand> mattias_: Right click on ubuntu logo, select edit menus?
[15:38] <Dre4m> does anyone here use exaile>? if so and they know how to set it as the default music player would you please let me know thank you in advanced?
[15:38] <Mpole> Slart: And one of the many who hangs out here who is very knowledgeable, such as ActionParsnip.
[15:39] <ConstantineXVI> Is there some web service out there that'll render LaTeX for you so you don't have to install it?
[15:39] <ardchoille> Dre4m: System > Preferences > Preferred Applications > Multimedia tab
[15:39] <elashish> ConstantineXVI: http://nirvana.informatik.uni-halle.de/~thuering/php/latex-online/latex.php?sprachauswahl=2&aufruf=21839
[15:40] <Dre4m> ardchoille: ty very much for your reply, however it doesn't show up in the list for some reason . . the drop down menu only shows rythembox and totem . .
[15:40] <Slart> Mpole: indeed... and let's not forget the ops and admins who actually keep this channel, and many more, working
[15:40] <Mpole> Slart: Exactomundo! lol
[15:41] <ardchoille> Dre4m: No "Custom" option?
[15:41] <ConstantineXVI> elashish, sweet.  thank you
[15:41] <Dre4m> ye custom option then it says command . . .
[15:41] <Dre4m> whats that mean? sorry i just did that "ENTER" as punctuatoin thing
[15:41] <aheckler> ardchoille: so i downgraded to the 2.6.27-9-generic kernel but I'm still not booting correctly. it seems as if my daemons wont start, like HAL, ALSA, etc. I can't mount anything or get sound.
[15:41] <ardchoille> Dre4m: yeah, you can add the proper command for exaile there
[15:42] <Dre4m> whats the command? how do I kknow what that is?
[15:42] <ardchoille> Dre4m: run your edit menu app and see how exaile gets started when you click the menu item for exaile
[15:43] <deany> whats the command to see how fragged my partition is/
[15:43] <deany> ext3 (home)
[15:43] <Dre4m> omg :(, im so sorry i must be such an idiot . . . edit menu app?
[15:43] <ardchoille> deany: you don't need to worry about defragging Linux
[15:43] <deany> what is it anyway
[15:44] <ardchoille> !defrag | deany
[15:44] <jeremy_> anyone have any good resources for setting up a nvidia mx video card on a PowerPC MAC ??
[15:44] <Dre4m> ardchoille: where do I find my edit menu map>?
[15:44] <Boohbah> deany: http://www2.lut.fi/~ilonen/ext3_fragmentation.html
[15:44] <Harlin> I have a db2 process that when it runs on some occasions, it will eat up resources so badly i cant even login via ssh or telnet... is there any way to guarantee ssh/telnet will be responsive in this event?
[15:44] <darkham> i installed kubuntu-desktop package in intrepid. how can i uninstall it with all dependencies?
[15:44] <Lokiase> hello all, in ubuntu on nvidia X server setting, I choose a good resolution, but when I reboot my pc, it always goes back to the wrong one, who knows what to do?
[15:44] <ardchoille> Dre4m: right click the menu button and choose Edit Menus
[15:44] <Slart> deany: don't worry about it..
[15:44] <deany> simple answer to my question would do, not a tech doc explaining how it doesnt get fragmented...
[15:44] <Boohbah> darkham: apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop
[15:44] <Slart> deany: just keep about 15% empty space and it will be ok
[15:45] <KandK> quibbler, are you still here?
[15:45] <Boohbah> darkham: myabe with a sudo
[15:45] <Dre4m> ardchoille:  can we go from the start? . . . right click the menu button . . whats a menu button?
[15:45] <deany> nevermind.....
[15:45] <Dre4m> oh found it . . . kk im in edit menu
[15:45] <deany> i`ll look it up..
[15:45] <dayo_> k
[15:45] <darkham> Boohbah: i typed it, but it remove only the package named kubuntu-desktop, no dependencies
[15:46] <ardchoille> deany: Well if there's a tech doc explaining how it doesn't get fragmented then maybe we don't need to worry about defrag?
[15:46] <darkham> Boohbah: i typed apt-get autoremove, but nothing
[15:46] <KandK> hello, I am having trouble with videos played in Firefox on Ubuntu 8.10
[15:46] <ardchoille> Dre4m: alt+f2, type in "alacarte" (without quotes) and click Run
[15:46] <Lokiase> nobody familiar with nvidea x server?
[15:46] <reya276> How can I get my internal hard drive to mount correctly? I keep getting this msg "mount point cannot contain characters" newline, G_DIR_SEPARATOR(usually /)"
[15:46] <deany> i dont need people telling me i dont need to be asking a question..  i only asked what the command was to see what % it was...
[15:47] <deany> im testing something
[15:47] <Boohbah> darkham: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome
[15:47] <elashish> deany sometimes it shows after running fsck
[15:47] <Dre4m> ardchoille: have al ook at your pm
[15:48] <deany> will it on a mounted drive?
[15:48] <deany> dont wanna reboot really.
[15:48] <elashish> you cannot run fsck on a mounted drive
[15:48] <ardchoille> deany: Even if you know what % it is, the file system takes care of it behind the scenes so you don't have to mess with it. So knowing the % isn't really useful.
[15:49] <chimp> Can anyone tell a program that will allow me to download a website (and links down to a certain death) for offline viewing? (i've tried scrapbook for firefox buts its implementation is slooooow)
[15:49] <chimp> death=depth
[15:49] <kelsin> chimp: wget
[15:49] <chimp> wget will download through links?
[15:50] <kelsin> chimp: yep, obviously have to look up the command line options, but yes it has that capability
[15:50] <Jeruvy> chimp: yes you can tell it to crawl.
[15:50] <chimp> ooh, thats well cool
[15:50] <chimp> saw it in man page
[15:50] <elashish> deany try filefrag
[15:50] <Pici> chimp: wget or httrack
[15:50] <kelsin> chimp: http://www.devarticles.com/c/a/Web-Services/Website-Mirroring-With-wget/
[15:50] <Jeruvy> Pici: oh thats a great tool, forgot about that one.
[15:51] <drod> hello, I'm looking for help getting my 9x12 intuos wacom tablet working under Ubuntu Studio
[15:51] <chimp> I do have one issue, the website I'm downloading off is password protected, can I get around that?
[15:51] <darkham> Boohbah: apt-get can only do this if user specify the packages ?
[15:51] <deany> thx elashish   for  helping..
[15:52] <jeremy_> Anyone have experience with nvidia cards on PowerPC Macs?
[15:52] <jeremy_> and willing to help?
[15:52] <deany> the ony reason im asking is i heard people talkin about backing up and restoring has the same results of a defrag, well lessens the % anyway,.. i just tried..
[15:52] <Jack_Sparrow> jeremy_, /join #ubuntu-powerpc
[15:52] <Boohbah> darkham: just copy and paste the line, worked for me
[15:52] <jeremy_> ah thank you very much
[15:52] <deany> i just used clonezilla do full partition image, and restored. guess i`ll reboot and do a fsck
[15:52] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[15:52] <Shishire> I have a partition table which is physically out of order, and I need to swap the partition definitions without losing any of the data.  Is this possible?  and if so, how?
[15:54] <avis> which of the following service is most likely to interfere with the mounting of a MTP mp3 player:  apmd, atd, or bluetooth ?
[15:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Shishire, Can you explain more about what you hope to accomplish
[15:54] <Jeruvy> Shishire: if you'd be so kind, could you explain what 'physically out of order' means?
[15:55] <avis> which of the following service is most likely to interfere with the mounting of a MTP mp3 player:  apmd, atd, or bluetooth, if that service is turned off (sorry had to include that those services were turned off)
[15:57] <Ienorand> Shishire: Hmm, if you know exactly what block dimensions you need, I guess you could just hack away with sfdisk or similar...?
[15:57] <Doonz> hey guys is there a way from in a shell to rename a folder that contains spaces?
[15:58] <mynameistux> when I run lsusb, I get this, http://pastebin.com/m483e7c95 that means my webcam is located at /dev/what?
[15:58] <Jeruvy> Doonz: use quotes ""
[15:58] <Doonz> can you give me an example of say howto rename My Documents to my.documents
[15:58] <Shishire> http://pastebin.com/d116b27ab
[15:59]  * Doonz is sorry im a noob
[15:59] <Jeruvy> Doonz: man mv
[15:59] <jtaji> Doonz: mv "My Documents" my.documents
[15:59] <Doonz> isnt that move?
[15:59]  * Doonz confused
[15:59] <oCean_> Doonz: use <tab> for namecompletion: command would be "mv M" (and hit tab key)
[16:00] <elashish> Doonz, you can also escape whitespace with a \ so it becomes >mv My\ Documents my.documents
[16:00] <Shishire> Doonz: in linux, in order to rename something, you move it from one name to another in the same folder.
[16:00] <oCean_> Doonz: after that hit space and enter new name "mv M<tab><space>blah"
[16:00] <Doonz> whoa info overload
[16:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Shishire, Ok, and what are you wanting to do with those partitions
[16:00] <Doonz> ok thanx guys /me prints out convo
[16:01] <mynameistux> when I run lsusb, I get this, http://pastebin.com/m483e7c95 that means my webcam is located at /dev/what?
[16:01] <Shishire> Jack_Sparrow: I want the partitions to be in disk order
[16:02] <Jack_Sparrow> Shishire, Still not understanding.  You can rename the mount points to anything you want no need to mess with the partition themselves
[16:02] <DaTorino> Ho scoperto ubuntu da pochissimo....è una figata!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[16:03] <jtaji> !it | DaTorino
[16:03] <Shishire> Jack_Sparrow: I know, but I'm trying to keep my partition table clean, so that my bootloader reads it correctly.  I've had problems in the past with this, and I want to get this right.
[16:04] <MJ__> hi folks i have a domain name ubuntumanager.com is any one interested on this domain name?
[16:04] <MegaJim> it is possible to adjust the partition table so that entries are in disk order, but unless you have a good reason to do it theres no benefit and just causes hassle
[16:04] <Jack_Sparrow> Shishire, Sorry, but it seems like the wrong approach to the issue
[16:04] <MJ__> hi folks i have a domain name ubuntumanager.com is any one interested on this domain name?
[16:05] <Kerio> i think i have the weidest problem in here right now. I cant boot from bd even!
[16:05] <Kerio> cd
[16:05] <wolter> hi, i installed the linux dropbox client, but now i can't disable it's startup trigger... it is not under the sessions preference. where should i look?
[16:05] <Kerio> busybox starts

[16:09] <mib_mok1sv82> hey guys i am having some problems with my graphics card, can anyone point me in the right direction, i need to install the best driver for my graphics card NVIDIA Gforce 8600M GT
[16:09] <Fuzzy> guys someone tell me a software similar to GOM Player
[16:09] <mib_mok1sv82> running 10.8
[16:10] <SeJo> hey all i still have a breezy running here, someone knows where i can find an rsync package for it?
[16:10] <Fuzzy> someone will tell me or no?
[16:11] <tuna> Fuzzy: what is "GOM player"?
[16:11] <mib_mok1sv82> if i use the v180 driver i can not get 3d visual effects support i get the error "Desktop effects could not be enabled"
[16:11] <AJC_Z0> Fuzzy: What is this "GOM player"?
[16:11] <Fuzzy> tuna, Video Player
[16:11] <Fuzzy> AJC_Z0, Video Player
[16:12] <AJC_Z0> Fuzzy: There are many video players, including totem, xine, mplayer and vlc
[16:12] <lw_> sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome
[16:12] <Fuzzy> AJC_Z0, When You're Downloading a Video File You can watch & Download that file...
[16:12] <wolter> where can i get a list of all the screensavers in hardy?
[16:12] <Fuzzy> AJC_Z0,  and i want something similar
[16:12] <mib_mok1sv82> and if i use version v173 driver i get an error at startup saying "screens found, but non of them have a use able config"
[16:12] <lonel> hi any one here played with ldap
[16:12] <tuna> Fuzzy: if you are downloading the file normally (sequentially) I cannot see why you can't do that with any video player
[16:12] <AJC_Z0> Fuzzy: So try each of those and see which one best fits all your requirements. You probably already have totem installed with Gnome
[16:13] <lonel> my ldap users cant chdir to home
[16:13] <Travis-42> I've been putting off upgrading to ubuntu 8.10, but I'm starting to find that I want to upgrade now... should I be OK to use the "upgrade distribution" option, or would I be better off installing fresh?
[16:13] <tuna> just open the partially dled file with the player of your choice
[16:13] <Fuzzy> tuna, because the current video player not showing the video properly like gom
[16:14] <tuna> try vlc?
[16:14] <mib_mok1sv82> really stuck here guys, i know its a driver issue, i just dont know howw to fix it, should i install "nvidia binary kernal module source", also what is thawt :P
[16:15] <mib_mok1sv82> its last years mac book pro, if that helps
[16:15] <Enissay> how can i install counter strike on ubuntu 8.10.... do someone has a good howto please?
[16:16] <jokkah> anyone here uses linux-phc ? i have ran the test, but mine fails ... however i managed to set the settings to: 12:0 10:0 8:0 6:0 the note seems to run very good at this settings. It was heating a lot when some process which used much cpu like a kernel compile was started... and so everything took much longer to finish. so what i think is very weird is i am using all 0 .. is this normal?
[16:18] <gizmo> anyone know what email can use for evolution mail?
[16:18] <MatBoy> why is there no documentation about how to make a gfs FS on ubuntu ?
[16:18] <ArcSighter> hello people
[16:18] <ArcSighter> a question
[16:18] <ArcSighter> I upgraded to intrepid yesterday
[16:18] <oCean_> gizmo: gmail for examle
[16:18] <jokkah> arc, dont ask to ask
[16:19] <ArcSighter> but my machine now is too slow
[16:19] <gizmo> oCean_, other than gmail?
[16:19] <jokkah> '
[16:19] <jokkah> ArcSighter: slow how
[16:19] <jokkah> ArcSighter: what kind of machine
[16:19] <ArcSighter> I couldn't manage to get thunderbird, firefox, pidgin and a terminal
[16:19] <ArcSighter> without huge delays
[16:19] <Jack_Sparrow> !enter > ArcSighter
[16:19] <ArcSighter> it didn't happened to me in hardy
[16:19] <ArcSighter> terribily slow
[16:20] <jokkah> well
[16:20] <lasivian> how do I limit how much space tmpfs can use?
[16:20] <jokkah> hardy is better
[16:20] <gizmo> oCean_, other than gmail?
[16:20] <jokkah> :)
[16:20] <oCean_> gizmo: well, the mail service should allow pop or imap acccess
[16:20] <ArcSighter> well, that's the fact mi pc is now terribly slow after upgrading to hardy, the only new is that avahi-daemon is running anything else
[16:20] <lasivian> i'm following an acer aspire one tutorial, and it doesn;t really give details on how much ram the tmpfs change is using, but i think it's slowing down the system
[16:20] <ArcSighter> any ideas?
[16:20] <jokkah> ArcSighter: what kind of pc are you talking about? a desktop or a notebook or what
[16:21] <mib_mok1sv82> can anyone help me or point me in me in the right direction to setup my gforce 8600m gt in ubuntu 10.8
[16:21] <mib_mok1sv82> i tryed install the propriatery drivers, but i can enable 3d effects
[16:21] <oCean_> gizmo: I'm on gmail.. don't know about all those other services.
[16:21] <jokkah> mib_mok1sv82: instal the nvidia drivers
[16:21] <mib_mok1sv82> can not enable the 3d effects
[16:21] <ArcSighter> jokkah a desktop pc
[16:22] <jokkah> mib_mok1sv82: then you must enable the driver
[16:22] <Juaco1> funny, i was reading yesterday in slashdot an article about lots of people reporting exactly the same as ArcSighter
[16:22] <mib_mok1sv82> jokkah: if i use the v180 driver i can not get 3d visual effects support i get the error "Desktop effects could not be enabled"
[16:22] <jokkah> mib_mok1sv82: then you can use th effects
[16:22] <ArcSighter> Juaco1 the article gave solutions???
[16:22] <jokkah> mib_mok1sv82: try other driver...
[16:22] <jokkah> mib_mok1sv82: v179
[16:23] <jokkah> mib_mok1sv82: i dont know, i dont have an nvidia, but thats what you should do...
[16:23] <horstle> hi
[16:23] <ArcSighter> it enabled effects by default after upgrading but I set them to none, so I don't know
[16:23] <mib_mok1sv82> jokkah: if i use version v173 driver i get an error at startup saying "screens found, but non of them have a use able config"
[16:23] <ArcSighter> xorg itself is consuming a lot of more memory than I'm used to
[16:23] <Juaco1> nope, just guessings, a few said it was that the last kernels have too many new features (mainly in task/mem management), others blamed software bloat
[16:24] <mib_mok1sv82> jokkah: i tryed all drivers, should i install "nvidia binary kernal module source", also what is thawt :P
[16:24] <lasivian> or does tmpfs only "use" memory when files are copied to the virtual ramdrive?
[16:24] <ArcSighter> well uname -r
[16:24] <ArcSighter> 2.6.27-9-generic
[16:24] <ArcSighter> it it unstable branch
[16:24] <ArcSighter> in hardy i was at 2.6.26
[16:24] <ArcSighter> something wrong with the kernel?
[16:25] <FloodBot1> ArcSighter: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:25] <ArcSighter> well anyway what do you recommend?
[16:25] <Juaco1> dunno, wait i'll see if i get the post for ya
[16:25] <jokkah> mib_mok1sv82: yes i think you should..
[16:26] <jokkah> mib_mok1sv82: it comes with the driver?
[16:26] <mib_mok1sv82> jokkah: thanks for the help i have beven trying for hours
[16:26] <kernel> I'm using ubuntu server kernel
[16:26] <Daisuke_Ido> ArcSighter: nothing's wrong with it, 2.6.17-9 is the kernel in intrepid
[16:26] <harish> harish
[16:26] <Daisuke_Ido> 2.6.27-9, that is
[16:26] <kernel> because server kernel use, then 4GB RAM be used.
[16:26] <jokkah> mib_mok1sv82: i have installed a nvidia on deb based distros, and i dont remember having any problem at al...
[16:26] <harish> hi
[16:26] <kernel> not 64bit.
[16:27] <mib_mok1sv82> jokkah: what does it mean
[16:27] <Just_Me> Ahem.
[16:27] <jokkah> mib_mok1sv82: oh btw id your 64bit?¿
[16:27] <harish> hiiiiiii
[16:27] <Juaco1> ArcSighter, my conclusion on that was that ubuntu is a system where you are making a choice, if your choice is performance over everything else, maybe you'll feel better with other, lower level distros
[16:27] <mib_mok1sv82> jokkah: what does it mean binary kernel module
[16:27] <Kerio> i cant boot from live cd
[16:27] <Kerio> busybox starts
[16:27] <ArcSighter> yes I know is the intrepid's kernel, I was just .27 in unstable branch, and maybe its an issue
[16:27] <gizmo> why in evolutione dont have pop3?
[16:27] <kernel> yes
[16:27] <gizmo> is it pop3 same like pop?
[16:27] <ASULutzy> Kerio: Busybox isn't good, did you verify the live-cd was burned correctly?
[16:28] <jokkah> mib_mok1sv82: it means the driver will add some modules, so your kernel will be prepared to use all the graphics card functions for example the 3d stuff
[16:28] <kernel> please serch in internet
[16:28] <gizmo> kernel, yes in waht?
[16:28] <ArcSighter> Juaco1 I came from debian
[16:28] <Juaco1> it depends on your hardware and what do you want to do with your system and how much effort do you want to put in order to do it
[16:28] <ArcSighter> and no it's not performance
[16:28] <kernel> gizmo, Please, use the Google.. :)
[16:28] <ArcSighter> but I can't possibly work in a machine that suddenly became so slow
[16:28] <jokkah> mib_mok1sv82: so you sure want to install that too....
[16:29] <Kerio> ASULutzy yes, i installed from that cd previously
[16:29] <ArcSighter> Juaco1 pv
[16:29] <Juaco1> k
[16:29] <ASULutzy> Kerio: Then some piece of hardware on your system must not be very happy with Ubuntu for some reason
[16:29] <sancho21> How to install amarok 2 in Ubuntu? Do I have to use backports?
[16:30] <gaping_goatse> sancho21: just use add/remove programs, type in amarok in search field.
[16:30] <mib_mok1sv82> jokkah: it seems i can onlm have one of thevm at a time, is mtmhims correct?
[16:31] <jokkah> mib_mok1sv82: choose the new one then
[16:31] <Kerio> thats very strange, cause i have been using ubuntu for quite some thime
[16:31] <amnay> Hi
[16:31] <Kerio> and it worked fined til i disconnected a hard drive
[16:31] <jokkah> mib_mok1sv82: type correct, or are you drunk?
[16:31] <sancho21> gaping_goatse, Amarok 2 is not found.
[16:31] <Kerio> maybe it remapped the drive i disconnected
[16:32] <Kerio> but the drive i disconnected didn't have any linuxOS on it
[16:32] <thiemster> where can I submit an Ubuntu wallpaper I created for possible use in the next Ubuntu release?
[16:32] <Kerio> just one old winOS
[16:32] <mib_mok1sv82> jokkah: i split tea over my keyboard it does random things lol
[16:32] <gaping_goatse> Kerio: Sounds like the BIOS reset the boot order after you changed the drive. Check the BIOS to make sure the order is 1. CDrom 2. USB sdrive 3. HD
[16:32] <amnay> in the console emulator (gnome terminal) when I press ctrl+left arrow it doesn t select the word on the left but writes ;5D instead
[16:32] <jokkah> mib_mok1sv82: thats why your card wont work.. the tea hit the graphics card aswell
[16:33] <amnay> in the console emulator (gnome terminal) when I press ctrl+left arrow it doesn t select the word on the left but writes ;5D instead
[16:34] <Kerio> gaping_goatse: the grub loads fine
[16:34] <mib_mok1sv82> jokkah: na it didnt, works fine in windows
[16:34] <jokkah> amnay: ui, that sux
[16:34] <amnay> sorry?
[16:34] <jokkah> amnay: must be some bashrc settings
[16:34] <Kerio> its after i have selected a kernel and after the ubuntu splashscreen the busybox starts
[16:34] <Harlin> is there a decent editor for linux? gui one
[16:34] <Harlin> besides kate and gnome edit?
[16:34] <amnay> I know
[16:34] <administrator> hellos
[16:34] <amnay> II mean
[16:34] <administrator> hellow
[16:34] <amnay> I m not sure
[16:34] <usta> hi all
[16:35] <savvas> Harlin: what do you mean decent?
[16:35] <usta> Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: open(/var/lib/php5/sess_8adb03e79d7a540e4f486a0a5d9e6f5a, O_RDWR) failed: Permission denied (13) in /var/www/web33/web/templates/joomla_hosting/styleswitcher.php on line 10
[16:35] <FloodBot1> usta: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:35] <sipior> Harlin: both vim and emacs have gui versions :-)
[16:35] <amnay> when I am root , it doesn t have the same issue
[16:35] <usta> thanls
[16:35] <Harlin> besides either one of those two
[16:35] <amnay> so I replaced my .bashrc with root's and it didn t fixed it
[16:35] <sipior> Harlin: so, a bad editor, then?
[16:35] <jokkah> amnay: add a new user, see if its working under his acc and get his bashrc and copy over yours and test... and make a backup before, of course..
[16:35] <amnay> I did
[16:35] <jokkah> k
[16:35] <amnay> it didn t work out
[16:35] <Doonz> heres a wierd question. Is it possible to run firefox or another gui based web browser through the sehll. Not w3m, elink, lynx but Firefox or similar
[16:36] <usta> can anyone help me there is link ?
[16:36] <usta> http://paste.ubuntu.com/105609/
[16:36] <savvas> Harlin: leafpad :)
[16:36] <gaping_goatse> hmm.. Busybox would indicate that GRUB doesnt know where the / partition is.. Try loading up the boot cd and using Partition Editor to VIEW which device the / partition is on.
[16:36] <Harlin> nothing light

[16:37] <Harlin> something that can be used for writing scripts .. almost an ide
[16:37] <usta> can anyone help me there is link  http://paste.ubuntu.com/105609/
[16:37] <dayo_> Doonz: u mean starting ff from the shell?
[16:37] <Harlin> but a light ide
[16:37] <Doonz> lik running it through the ssh shell
[16:37] <jokkah> usta: ^
[16:37] <Ienorand> Doonz: In what way? running a gui-based program without a gui?
[16:37] <lasivian> does tmpfs only use space when files are copied to it?
[16:37] <usta> Joker_-_,  yes
[16:37] <jokkah> usta: its a little obvious
[16:37] <dayo_> usta: looks like the permissions are not set right?
[16:37] <gaping_goatse> Doonz: Nope. There is a library to run via ASCII art, but it's slow, and is more of a joke.
[16:37] <savvas> Harlin: geany, scribes from the top of my head
[16:37] <Doonz> gaping_goatse:  thanx
[16:38] <usta> dayo_, what can i do ?
[16:38] <Harlin> geany
[16:38] <Harlin> thats it
[16:38] <dayo_> usta: change the permissions?
[16:38] <usta> yes
[16:38] <gaping_goatse> Doonz: if you get aalib (the library for ascii art) you can run some things through it. For example, there's a plugin for AAlib for mplayer.
[16:38] <savvas> Harlin: there's also scite if you need light
[16:38] <usta> dayo_, but i do not know what must i do now
[16:38] <Harlin> yeah that one's ok
[16:38] <Harlin> geany though
[16:39] <Harlin> that's the one i was looking
[16:39] <savvas> ok :)
[16:39] <weouler> hi.
[16:39] <Doonz> gaping_goatse: i just want to be able to use firefox in my ssh so i can view all websites cause w3m and elinks dont handle alot of the ones i frequent properly
[16:39] <komputes> Can someone help me find this bug - I'm sure I've seen a bug on launchpad concerning microphone volume on a Dell Inpiron 1420N being very low in Ubuntu 8.10 (Intel HD Audio Controller - 82801H - ICH8).
[16:40] <elashish> Doonz, use ssh -X user@host to forward X11
[16:40] <elashish> then launch firefox normally from CLI
[16:40] <yfk> which pdf reader is good for marking pdfs with a yellow marker on linux? like you can do with foxit...
[16:40] <usta> dayo_, i solved thanks all
[16:40] <weouler> i use lynx instead of firefox...
[16:41] <Doonz> elashish: this server is headless so there is no gui at all
[16:41] <dayo_> usta: ok
[16:41] <dundel> why can't i use vnc in the terminal server client? it's greyed out in interpred
[16:42] <jerr> Hello everyone, I am having trouble getting my sound to work. I am currently using Realtek ALC889A; which is onboard.  A fellow told me yesterday he had it working well. aplay -l Reconizes my sound, so does lspci.  Anyone have suggestions? Im fairly new to Linux btw.
[16:42] <jerr> On that note, brb 1 moment!
[16:43] <sahil_> hi
[16:43] <runderwo> jerr: have you checked mixer/mute settings?
[16:43] <sahil_> how could i connect bluetooth headset to ubuntu
[16:43] <sahil_> it could browse it but is unable to connect
[16:44] <mynameistux> what is the command to remove non empty directories?
[16:44] <oCean_> dundel: not sure about that. It isn't in my ts client.. however there is also a "remote desktop viewer" in applications > internet menu
[16:45] <Nomexous> mynameistux: rm -rf
[16:45] <oCean_> mynameistux: "rm -rf <directory name>" Be careful :)
[16:45] <mynameistux> thank you
[16:45] <mynameistux> I feel powerful now
[16:45] <Juaco> mynameistux: append -r switch to rm
[16:46] <yaka71> hi
[16:46] <mynameistux> Juaco: yeah, but then it asks if I want to remove each induvidual file, and that is a pain
[16:46] <scampbell> mynameistux:  you might want to start with rm -r   the -f option tells it to do it without asking which has been a bad experience for many a new user.
[16:46] <mynameistux> yeah, I know, but its done now
[16:46] <mynameistux> I was careful
[16:46] <Juaco> mynameistux: ditto scampbell
[16:47] <sahil_> hey could any one help me
[16:47] <oCean_> !ask | sahil_
[16:47] <sahil_> my bluetooth headset (dell bh200) is unable to connect to ubuntu
[16:47] <lasivian> what is Ubuntu's equivalent of c:/program files/ ?
[16:48] <tritium> lasivian: most binaries are stored in /usr/bin
[16:48] <Juaco> lasivian: binaries are installed in /usr/bin /usr/sbin /bin and /sbin mainly, but there are other folders with config, program data etc
[16:48] <sahil_> lasivian i think its /usr/bin
[16:48] <lasivian> oh, I must be thinking wrong...
[16:49] <weboide> Hi, Ive just installed dnsutils on my hardy server, and when configuring bind9, it says /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.named is different from what the package wants to install. Here are the diff: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/105610/. What should I do?
[16:49] <marcelkoopman> any news on jaunty alpha 3? its delayed i guess?
[16:49] <famast> hi! How can I prevent my usb disks from being automounted?
[16:49] <lasivian> gui stuff is stored seperately I assume
[16:49] <scampbell> laslivan: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard  <- have a look at that, it should enlighten you.
[16:49] <DefamedPrawn> is there an app that can quickly convert image formats? Like a mini-gimp?
[16:49] <Harlin> DefamedPrawn: imagemagick
[16:49] <famast> (or if not preventing from automounting, at least prevent them from popping up windows)
[16:49] <lasivian> for example, if I want to find an icon a program is using I would look for it's running directory. But in Linux the icon is part of the windows system and the binary is seperate
[16:50] <scampbell> DEfamedPrawn:  imagemagick is a collection of image manipulation programs.  It comes with 'convert' which does as you ask.
[16:50] <erUSUL> DefamedPrawn: use convert/mogrify form imagemagik in command line
[16:50] <genii> lasivian: There is a good description of what goes in what directories on Linux systems here: http://www.comptechdoc.org/os/linux/usersguide/linux_ugfilestruct.html
[16:50] <sahil_> so is there any solution to my problem or not
[16:50] <DefamedPrawn> thanks guys. Is there a grapical one?
[16:50] <scampbell> DefamedPrawn: gimp
[16:50] <erUSUL> DefamedPrawn: also in the extras plugin package for gimp there is a batch converter
[16:50] <lasivian> genii: thanks. it's the re-alignment in how basic things are done that's taking some getting used to :)
[16:51] <scampbell> DefamedPrawn: er, "gimp" Gnu Image Manipulation Program... I wasn't name calling :)
[16:51] <lasivian> ooh, I wouldn;t mind a gui for Imagemagick myself
[16:51] <genii> lasivian: Yes, it's hard to shift paradigms easily
[16:52] <Harlin> possible to get geany to open a file using scp or ftp?
[16:52] <sahil_> how to connect bluetooth headset to ubuntu
[16:52] <sahil_> how to connect bluetooth headset to ubuntu
[16:52] <kiplantt> Hi. How to get PPA to compile also on hardy ?
[16:52] <sahil_> how to connect bluetooth headset to ubuntu
[16:52] <lasivian> what exactly should I call the base Ubuntu "windows" system, I hear KDE, Gnome and X
[16:52] <sahil_> how to connect bluetooth headset to ubuntu
