[20:00] <Cpudan80> Well I'll be damned
[20:00] <Cpudan80> It booted now
[20:00] <Cpudan80> Weird
[20:00] <Palthron> mnemo:  yes, currently ubuntu, xp, 98, and vista
[20:00] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  webmin is nice. but considered a security issue. its not inthe repos any more either. will have to use its source.. but its fairly eays to install
[20:00] <doctajoyce> first when i try to install xbubuntu the cd drive recognition part doesn't find it for like 6 tries which equals like 40 mins then it eventually finds it and enables hdparm
[20:01] <doctajoyce> how do i do that manually
[20:01] <Niklas_25> I did a CTRL+Z on a program. How do I get back to it?
[20:01] <doctajoyce> and it gets stuck on partionining
[20:01] <doctajoyce> i used a linux sys disk and formated the drive to ext 3
[20:01] <WorkingOnWise> what do i use to join a multipart zip file back together? Archive manager says that all 7 parts are not the last file in the set.
[20:01] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  you doing some weird things with the shares or what exactly? sharing the homes and a few public shares is rather straightforward.
[20:01] <ikonia> FullMon-T: did you want me?
[20:01] <Jowi> doctajoyce: check the md5sum of the CD. also try a burn at low speed (x2)
[20:01] <Palthron> Dr_willis : I'm now kinda used installing from a source code and I'm sure there's plenty of sources on Google for installing from it so it shouldn't be a problem (maybe)
[20:01] <mnemo> Palthron: if you have a ubuntu machine running you can select "places :: network :: windows network :: etc" to view what you are sharing (but I think this goes for all network cards/interfaces)
[20:02] <doctajoyce> hmm
[20:02] <doctajoyce> ok
[20:02] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  webmin is rather easy to isntall from souce. :) easier then most apps actally
[20:02] <Palthron> yes but currently i can't see my vista box folders
[20:02] <EvanCarroll> anyone happen to know where unicode annotations are? (what pkg) I need to file a bug report
[20:02] <dn4> !ubot rar
[20:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubot rar - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:02] <dn4> what is a good .rar unzipper
[20:02] <Niklas_25> I did CTRL+Z on a process and it stopped. How do I resume that process? And, when I have got my process back, how do I get a running process into the background without stopping it? CTRL+Z stopping the process...
[20:02] <Dr_willis> !rar
[20:02] <ubotu> rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[20:03] <FullMon-T> ikonia: IF you feel willing, would you help me with my mysterious harddrive disappearing? I reformatted the drive, and it still won't come up in Ubuntu.
[20:03] <Jowi> dn4: unrar (nonfree)
[20:03] <Dr_willis> Niklas_25,  use the bg command.
[20:03] <Johan-_> zuriv: I want to use gnome, but only fluxbox works
[20:03] <Niklas_25> Dr_willis: Thanks
[20:03] <Palthron> Dr_willis : I'll try swat first to keep version updating simple
[20:03] <Dr_willis> Niklas_25,  read up on bash job control also some times.
[20:03] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  so your whole 'samba' problem is not seeing the shares on a vista box?
[20:03] <Niklas_25> Dr_willis: Like man bg?
[20:04] <Dr_willis> !bash | Niklas_25
[20:04] <ubotu> Niklas_25: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[20:04] <Abatrour> Hey guys. I have a question I was hoping someone could help me with. When I'm in ubuntu 7.10 and I go to youtube, when I watch videos my whole computer will pause for seconds at a time
[20:04] <ikonia> FullMon-T: have we talked about this before (just curious to why you've asked me specifically)
[20:04] <Dr_willis> Niklas_25,  theres dozens of bash books out :) and sites and guides...
[20:04] <blackgraz> i get an error in torrentflux when i do a search
[20:04] <blackgraz> Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CLASS, expecting T_FUNCTION in /usr/share/torrentflux/www/searchEngines/PirateBayEngine.php on line 833
[20:04] <Niklas_25> okay, Ill do that. Thanks for the help.
[20:04] <Palthron> Dr_willis : yes and simplicity of mounting shared folders from vista on ubuntu and vice versa
[20:04] <blackgraz> when i try all the other searches it doesnt show any results
[20:04] <doctajoyce> the md5 is supposed to be a md5 file
[20:04] <doctajoyce> bc the one i have is a .txt
[20:04] <doctajoyce> grr
[20:05] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow, the uuid didn't change. Because I had split the partition in two, my root moved from /dev/hda6 to /dev/hda7 , but the uuid did not change.
[20:05] <Palthron> ermmmmmm just now vista opened my ubuntu folder without me doing anything....
[20:05] <FullMon-T> ikonia: You helped me a bit before. (Clue: Vag*na Gentium)
[20:05] <Palthron> vista is weird :?
[20:05] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud: Interesting...
[20:05] <Abatrour> do any of your computers pause for seconds when watching videos on youtube?
[20:05] <ikonia> FullMon-T: where you in as another user name ?
[20:05] <pg> How can I make /sbin/dhclient execute without requiring a password?  /etc/sudoers contains the line "dialout ALL = (dialout) NOPASSWD: /sbin/dhclient", but it still asks for a password
[20:05] <FullMon-T> yes, Chuy.
[20:05] <ikonia> FullMon-T: cache or something like that
[20:06] <ikonia> ok,
[20:06] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud: Let me get the link.... I read on that.
[20:06] <latinoguy> how to uninstall the javaruntime plugin for firefox??
[20:06] <FullMon-T> ikonia: Chuy
[20:06] <Niklas_25> I have created a bridge (br0) with brctl. I have put my normal eth1 into promisc mode. It works. How can I make my bridge be started on startup? Currently am loosing my bridge when am restarting
[20:06] <ikonia> FullMon-T: what problem are you actually having
[20:06] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow, that as I understood it was the point of the uuid, it would be the same, allowing the actual device to move around
[20:06] <FullMon-T> I can't get Ubuntu to recognise that there is a seperate harddrive present.
[20:06] <ader10> When I click on conky, it makes a selection from the other side of the desktop to where I clicked on conky. How do I fix it? Please help :{
[20:06] <FullMon-T> ikonia: I can't get Ubuntu to recognise that there is a seperate harddrive present.
[20:06] <ikonia> FullMon-T: define what you have done and what the symptoms are
[20:06] <Dr_willis> Palthron,   for accessing the vista shares.. it may be vista doing somthing different. :) as for seeing all the shares. You may want to check out the samba fuse tools.. of course accessing the shares on windows box's is not controled by samba actually....
[20:06] <Dr_willis> !find smbfuse
[20:07] <ubotu> Package/file smbfuse does not exist in gutsy
[20:07] <ikonia> Dr_willis: is thre such a thing ?
[20:07] <Abatrour> fullmon, what filesystem are you using on that drive?
[20:07] <ikonia> there even
[20:07] <Dr_willis> !info fusesmb
[20:07] <ubotu> fusesmb: filesystem client based on the SMB file transfer protocol. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.6-1 (gutsy), package size 29 kB, installed size 140 kB
[20:07] <Dr_willis> ikonia,  what thing? :) i use fusesmb all the time. - its darn handy
[20:07] <ikonia> Dr_willis: never used it, just asking
[20:07] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud:    I agree but how it was calculated origianlly used partition size and location to calc the uuid  http://linuxmint.com/wiki/index.php/UUID_-what_is_it_and_why_is_it_a_problem
[20:07] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  the fusesmb tool for ubuntu - makes accessing the windows shares a LOT nicer. :)
[20:07] <Palthron> Dr_willis : this is getting rather confusing for me. Let me walk it step by step slowly :)
[20:08] <Palthron> Dr_willis : is fusesmb a frontend?
[20:08] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  fusesmb is a samba interface to the FUSE tools.
[20:08] <bolt> is there a simple console program that can record audio from my microphone? just need to see if it works. no x server on this machine. console only
[20:08] <khaotik> how do i find out if my web cam works
[20:08] <FullMon-T> ikonia: No drive present under Computer, Nothing in /Media. The drive did a vanishing act. So I reformatted the drive, and reinstalled XP on it, and now I still can't access it through Ubuntu.
[20:09] <ikonia> FullMon-T: ok - it's a usb driver yes/no
[20:09] <ikonia> drive sorry
[20:09] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  on my machine i do the command 'fusesmb Network'  (whichis a directory) and Poof.. the whole samba network/shares.everything appears in the Network dir. :)
[20:09] <khermans> khaotik, see if driver gets loaded in dmesg + lsusb + lshw
[20:09] <FullMon-T> Ikonia: Internal hd.
[20:09] <Palthron> Dr_willis : installing fusesmb now
[20:09] <eckesicle> bolt: you can just pipe it to a wav-file directly?
[20:09] <Palthron> Dr_willis : And removing swat + jags
[20:09] <ikonia> FullMon-T: ok, so what device file is it associated to
[20:09] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  as shares/machines appear/vanish -  they apear/vanish from the Network dir.
[20:09] <bolt> eckesicle: i can?
[20:09] <Quicksilva> Hi, i installed fglrx drivers and i get the correct output when i type fglrxinfo yet my graphical performance is very very poor.  I had it working properly before. is there anythin i can do about this perofmance
[20:09] <khaotik> is there something i can type into the terminal to see if its enabled or something
[20:10] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  swat + javs are config tools to configure SAMBA on the linux box.. they have nothing to do with mountign remote shares.
[20:10] <FullMon-T> ikonia: I'm not sure, how do I tell?
[20:10] <khermans> khaotik, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam
[20:10] <htmljunkie> new to linux and ubuntu, goals i want to have: ow to run an ftp server, web server and ultimately a server box'=
[20:10] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud: I am thrilled that it has been fixed...
[20:10] <Abatrour> khaotik, try clicking apps, graphics, xsane image scanner and see if u can choose your cam in there
[20:10] <khermans> !webcam | khaotik
[20:10] <ubotu> khaotik: Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras
[20:10] <ikonia> FullMon-T: how many disks to you have it that machine ?
[20:10] <Dr_willis> Palthron,   you are getting 2 different tasks confused. :)
[20:10] <khaotik> good looking i will check it out
[20:10] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow, I think the point that the guy is missing is the uuid is calculated once, when the partition is created/resized. Until that particular partition is changed, the uuid is constant
[20:10] <Palthron> Dr_willis : ow i thought it could automount my shared folder to a local folder
[20:10] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud: Thanks for the test.. now we all know the full answer.
[20:11] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  you can do that without swat or other tools.. by just editing the fstab.. or using a tool like the fuse smb thing. or other ways
[20:11] <Palthron> Dr_willis : Ok fusesmb installed. what next?
[20:11] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  swat and others - configure the shares on the LINUX box.
[20:11] <khaotik> what is the best way i can get my broadcom wifi chip working? should i use the NDISwrapper??
[20:11] <khermans> Palthron, mount
[20:11] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  read its man pages? :)  for a start let me check the locationof the default config.
[20:11] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud: So changing the size will change the uuid...  changing the format will not.. and only for that partition.. cool
[20:11] <eckesicle> bolt: yes. let me try it first though.
[20:11] <khermans> !fusesmb
[20:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fusesmb - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:11] <ikonia> Jack_Sparrow: physical parameters only
[20:11] <FullMon-T> ikonia: 3 drives: 200GB IDE running Ubuntu, 300GB SATA running as a storage space, and an 80GB IDE for Windows. The 80GB is the drive I am having problems with.
[20:11] <Palthron> Dr_willis yes i did edit fstab but it's too techy for any other user
[20:11] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow, didn't try the format ...
[20:11] <khermans> !fuse | Palthron
[20:11] <jstarcher> How do I fix the error where xmms says another program is using my soundcard?
[20:11] <ubotu> Palthron: FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) is a !kernel driver that allows non-root users to create their own filesystems. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_in_Userspace for more on FUSE.  Some examples of filesystems that use FUSE are !ntfs-3g, sshfs and isofs. A full list of Filesystems that use FUSE is here:  http://fuse.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/FileSystems
[20:11] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow, just the size
[20:12] <ikonia> FullMon-T: ok, so in that case you should have /dev/sda /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc yes/no
[20:12] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  for a start - pick a user to use. copy the file /usr/share/doc/fusesmb/examples/fusesmb.conf.ex to /home/USERNAME/.smb/fusesmb.conf
[20:12] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud: The guy we were talking with earlier, was just changing the format.. which brought up the original question
[20:12] <Palthron> everybody : getting too confused, i'll read the manual first and try something. i'll get right back here immediately after.
[20:12] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  then you edit that file to enter the share info/passwords and so forth.
[20:13] <eckesicle> bolt: okay didn't work for me but my microphone probably doesnt work. You can always use the sound recorder to test your microphone. You find it in Applications->Sound and Video->Sound Recorder
[20:13] <Palthron> everybody : sorry, i'm not too used with a super crowded channel :)
[20:13] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow, forgot about that part, focused on your mention of resize. Oh, well, what's another few minutes :)
[20:13] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[20:13] <Arthur37855> question? how do i get a internal hd to mount at boot? i just want to use it for storage. right now only root user has permissions, i want permissions?
[20:13] <Abatrour> are there any other web browsers installed by default in ubuntu?
[20:13] <Dr_willis> Hmm.. if i need to add a user to the fuse group - whats the proper command line command to do that? I forget. :(
[20:14] <ikonia> Abatrour: ubuntu installs firefox only
[20:14] <quicks> Hi, i installed fglrx drivers and i get the correct output when i type fglrxinfo yet my graphical performance is very very poor.  I had it working properly before. is there anythin i can do about this performance
[20:14] <Abatrour> aside from firefox? i want to see if its just firefox that makes my computer freeze
[20:14] <ikonia> Abatrour: you can install additional ones
[20:14] <FullMon-T> ikonia: yes, here: http://img2.freeimagehosting.net/image.php?17521f85b3.png Sorry it loads slow.
[20:14] <Abatrour> I know! I'll use internet explorer! hhah thats reliable
[20:15] <ikonia> Abatrour: thanks for the pointless comment in response to your cry for help.
[20:15] <FullMon-T> o_0
[20:15] <Abatrour> well im not really getting any help anyways soo
[20:15] <redspike> hi all i have intel xeon 64bit cpu, can i use all my 14G memory with a default isntall of ubuntu server 7.10 ?
[20:15] <RenatoSilva> does anyone has a dialed connection?
[20:15] <ikonia> Abatrour: I've just told you firefox is only installed by default, you can install additional browsers though
[20:15] <ikonia> redspike: you should be fine
[20:16] <Abatrour> no, way before. i asked if anyone elses computer froze for seconds at a time while on youtube
[20:16] <redspike> oktanouc: teh kernel have 64bit support right?
[20:16] <ikonia> FullMon-T: I said "sda/sdb/sdc" not "hda/hdb/hdc"
[20:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Abatrour: When was the last time you got an answer in under 60 seconds...    !Patience
[20:16] <redspike> ikonia: the kernel have 64bit support?
[20:16] <ikonia> redspike: there is a 64bit install cd
[20:16] <FullMon-T> Ikonia: Beg your pardon. Check the picture I sent.
[20:17] <ikonia> redspike: the 64bit install cd has a 64bit support
[20:17] <khermans> !64bit | Redhammer_the_Ol
[20:17] <ubotu> Redhammer_the_Ol: AMD64 and EMT64 are fully supported architectures on Ubuntu. See http://tinyurl.com/jv6tc for more information.
[20:17] <redspike> ikonia: for intel cpu`s
[20:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Abatrour: How did you install Flash.. and you never mentioned youtube in your original question
[20:17] <Palthron> Is fusesmb used for managing shares in gnome? i now can share easily but still can't access vista box
[20:17] <ikonia> FullMon-T: yes, the picture you've sent has hda hdb hdc
[20:17] <Ax-Ax> i copied my /home to a new hardrive as in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=250104 but i wonder if its sure that all of my files followed, so i can remove /home from the old harddrive
[20:17] <ikonia> FullMon-T: I asked you to check for sda sdb and sdc
[20:17] <ikonia> FullMon-T: not hda hdb hdc
[20:18] <Ec1ipseR> !ru
[20:18] <ubotu> Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке  / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke
[20:18] <ikonia> Ax-Ax: check if your files are there or not
[20:18] <Abatrour> "(12:04:04 PM) Abatrour: Hey guys. I have a question I was hoping someone could help me with. When I'm in ubuntu 7.10 and I go to youtube, when I watch videos my whole computer will pause for seconds at a time"
[20:18] <flamsmark> anyone know why a gigabyte  GA N608i DQ6 might be beeping intermittantly and randomly shutting down?
[20:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Abatrour: How did you install Flash.. and you never mentioned youtube in your original question
[20:18] <redspike> khermans: what i can se the cd is for amd64?
[20:18] <ikonia> Jack_Sparrow: I suspect it's a manual flash 10 install with the ubuntu package being borked
[20:18] <Abatrour> i think the built in flash plugin
[20:18] <redspike> khermans: i have intel
[20:18] <eckesicle> Ax-Ax: type: du /home/yourname | md5
[20:18] <Jack_Sparrow> ikonia: agreed
[20:18] <ikonia> redspike: www.ubuntu.com select download and select x86_64 cd
[20:18] <Palthron> ouw it just worked, thank  you Dr_willis and khermans and everybody
[20:19] <Abatrour> u know how u go to a site in firefox and it asks u to install a missing plugin
[20:19] <khermans> Palthron, np
[20:19] <redspike> ikonia: thanx
[20:19] <FullMon-T> ikonia: I did  ls /dev | grep sd and got this: ptysd, sda, sda1, and ttysd
[20:19] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  you read the docs and got it all? :) added the users to the fuse group? :)
[20:19] <latinoguy> how to uninstall a plug in in firefox??
[20:19] <eckesicle> Ax-Ax: and then du /path/to/home/on/harddrive | md5
[20:19] <Jack_Sparrow> !flashissues > Abatrour:
[20:19] <Ax-Ax> eckesicle, what does it do?
[20:19] <ikonia> FullMon-T: your running ubuntu 7.10 ? yes/no
[20:19] <khermans> redspike, you mean xeon?
[20:19] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  its not complex. just a little undocumented in a few points.
[20:19] <FullMon-T> ikonia: yes.
[20:19] <khermans> !ia64 | redspike
[20:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ia64 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:19] <eckesicle> Ax-Ax: If you get the same output all files are there! But beware, if you have changed anything in your home catalogue since you copied this will output error.
[20:19] <Palthron> Dr_willis : not finished yet, i still cannot write to the vista box (read only) but i'll work it out
[20:19] <Jowi> bolt: you can record mic with "arecord" I think
[20:20] <ikonia> FullMon-T: somehing is very wrong with your system then as all disks should show up as sdX not hdX
[20:20] <FactTech> MisterC Are you the same as MisterChief who was on a while ago?
[20:20] <eckesicle> Ax-Ax: error as in you will not get same string out. Sorry if i scared you
[20:20] <jescis> hello, I need to change my resolution, and the screen resolution app wont work right
[20:20] <redspike> khermans: yes
[20:20] <Abatrour> does anyone know how to switch from the flash plugin to the oss flash plugin?
[20:20] <FullMon-T> ikonia: ...

[20:20] <Ax-Ax> eckesicle, ok
[20:20] <khermans> redspike, there is an ia64 release
[20:20] <eckesicle> Ax-Ax: it reads all the files in your directory and your filesizes and computes a checksum for them
[20:20] <MenZa> Abatrour: sudo aptitude remove flashplugin-nonfree && sudo aptitude install gnash
[20:20] <MenZa> Abatrour: I believe.
[20:20] <ikonia> khermans: he does not want the ia64 package
[20:20] <Palthron> i think it's vista's fault, not samba
[20:20] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  i guarentee its somthing vista is doing.
[20:20] <khermans> ikonia, he said it was not amd64 -- it was xeon
[20:21] <ikonia> khermans: zeon is amd64
[20:21] <Abatrour> cool thnx
[20:21] <ikonia> khermans: ia64 is itanium
[20:21] <khermans> ikonia, not entirely true
[20:21] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  vista did a few smb things differently. and it broke a few  things.
[20:21] <Non4ik> thnx - thanks?
[20:21] <Dozier> In Ubuntu, I am pulling an IP address from my firewall box, but I cannot ping it, even though I am able to ping the firewall box from my other machines on the network
[20:21] <ikonia> khermans: yes exactly true
[20:21] <khermans> ikonia, yes i thought he said itanium
[20:21] <ikonia> khermans: no, xeons
[20:21] <Palthron> Dr_willis : couldn't agree more. xp is doing fine without further config. vista is weiiiird :)
[20:21] <eckesicle> Ax-Ax: whoops my bad there. command was flawed :)
[20:21] <Ax-Ax> ok
[20:21] <htmljunkie> dozier can you teach a newb like me how to make an ftp server and samba etc for linux? i'm on ubuntu
[20:21] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow, ok, here we are: resizing or changing partition type changes uuid, but does not affect any other uuid on an unaltered partition.
[20:21] <jescis> thanks ubotu
[20:21] <ZiRo`> this bug with firefox which leaves flash elements of a page ontop of every window when it crashes IS LAME
[20:22] <FullMon-T> HElp. I have \No drive present under Computer, Nothing in /Media. The drive did a vanishing act. So I reformatted the drive, and reinstalled XP on it, and now I still can't access it through Ubuntu.
[20:22] <FactTech> Palthron Vista is great -- look at all it's doing for Ubuntu. :)
[20:22] <ikonia> FullMon-T: why have you just asked the same question again ?
[20:22] <Dozier> htmljunkie: i'm new myself, I'm still trying to get my own ubuntu box online right now
[20:22] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud: Great to have a definitive answer..
[20:22] <eckesicle> Ax-Ax: You should use du -a /home/yourname | md5
[20:22] <htmljunkie> you made a box for ubuntu?
[20:22] <htmljunkie> wow you musth ave some extra cash to spen
[20:22] <Dozier> yes
[20:22] <Dozier> spare parts
[20:22] <Ax-Ax> ok
[20:22] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  i recall some artical about what vista did differently.  but i dont rember where.. I can access my smb shares oe my vista box fine how3ever.
[20:22] <htmljunkie> just for a decent box it would cost me $300 at least
[20:22] <jsoftw> I have put a bigger LCD on my ubuntu box. How do I get ubuntu to reconfig X for it.
[20:22] <ikonia> FullMon-T: I've explained there is a serious flaw with your system that disks are being shown using the old libata policy of ide=hda scsi/sata=sda, which is not appropriate for ubuntu 7.10
[20:22] <jsoftw> ?
[20:22] <sondad> hi
[20:22] <FullMon-T> ikonia: I figured that you couldn't help me on account of my drives being hd instead of sd...
[20:22] <Johan-_> sorry for the spamming... When launching a vnc4server server with "exec gnome-session" in my xstarup file the gnome-session starts up but isn't shoing in the vncclient. Any ideas?
[20:23] <redspike> khermans: iam going to run vmware server on it, and i have 14G memory installed. is the 64bit AMD and Intel computers the right image to use then?
[20:23] <ikonia> FullMon-T: please show me the output of uname -a
[20:23] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow, now all we need if for grub to not need (hd0,5). That was the only issue with my grub when splitting a lower numbered partition into two
[20:23] <FullMon-T> ikonia: Is there a work around
[20:23] <Palthron> Dr_willis : what did vista did to ubuntu?
[20:23] <htmljunkie> 14g
[20:23] <htmljunkie> jesus
[20:23] <htmljunkie> lol
[20:23] <htmljunkie> thats a ton of ram
[20:23] <ikonia> FullMon-T: please show me the output of umame -a
[20:23] <Dr_willis> Johan- check the vncxserver logs
[20:23] <Palthron> migrating frustated user? :D
[20:23] <FullMon-T> ikonia: Linux Mexicant 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Tue Dec 18 08:02:57 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[20:23] <htmljunkie> mac osx benefited the most
[20:24] <FactTech> Palthron bingo!
[20:24] <redspike> htmljunkie: i have 6x servers that have 14G ram :)
[20:24] <khermans> redspike, get the amd64 release of vmware server
[20:24] <htmljunkie> mac osx's market share is almost 10%
[20:24] <ikonia> FullMon-T: is this a clean install or have you done upgrades from say 6.10
[20:24] <Palthron> :-D
[20:24] <redspike> htmljunkie: running win2003 now going to move the host os over to ubuntu
[20:24] <BobArctor> htmljunkie: in the US not europe
[20:24] <htmljunkie> nice
[20:24] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  they did some little thing with samba/smb/the shares differently.  I forget what. :) it was a big deal/artical about it when vista fitrst came out.
[20:24] <FullMon-T> ikonia: clean install right over XP64x.
[20:24] <htmljunkie> redspike i'm a newb to linux
[20:24] <Arthur37855> question? how do i access my other hard drive? i need read and write permissions also i would like to have this at boot
[20:24] <htmljunkie> goals: how to run an ftp server, web server and ultimately a server box
[20:24] <Abatrour> :( gnash is screwed up
[20:24] <redspike> khermans: do that work on xeon to?
[20:24] <sondad> hello
[20:24] <Dr_willis> OS-X is gaining share! its time for apple to do somthign stupid now. :)
[20:24] <sondad> dear friend . i installed Bmon 2.0.1 on ubuntu feisty by the add remove program application. it was very nice and helpful. but the problem occure after i uninstalled the bmon with the same application add-remove program ..a messege popup when i restart the system telling me
[20:24] <sondad> "There was an error creating the child process for this terminal" . I would really appreciate if you help me remove this annoying message
[20:24] <sondad> thanks
[20:24] <khermans> redspike, any amd64 yes
[20:25] <Palthron> Dr_willis : i'll google that. i'll paste the article here if i can find it
[20:25] <htmljunkie>  osx has bsd
[20:25] <Dr_willis> Palthron,  you could disable the vista firewall :) that may be the whole issue
[20:25] <ikonia> FullMon-T: something is exceptionally wrong then. 1 moment please why I consult a test system
[20:25] <htmljunkie> they can't make it bad really
[20:25] <ikonia> htmljunkie: this is ubuntu support - we are not interested in OSx or BSD
[20:25] <htmljunkie> hey i sai i'm new to ubuntu an linux
[20:25] <harm> has anyone noticed a drop in performance since 7.10? Especially programs loading slower?
[20:26] <ikonia> htmljunkie: so ?
[20:26] <htmljunkie> goals are : how to run an ftp server, web server and ultimately a server box
[20:26] <htmljunkie> so i'm here to learn
[20:26] <redspike> khermans: i dont get it.. intel xeon supports amd64 ?
[20:26] <ikonia> htmljunkie: there are guides on https://help.ubuntu.com
[20:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Arthur37855: HAve you set it to mount at boot?
[20:26] <nickrud> harm, no. How long does it take you to start up, say gedit?
[20:26] <khermans> redspike, it is x86_64 arch
[20:26] <ikonia> redspike: amd64 is what ubuntu are calling 64 bit
[20:26] <harm> htmljunkie: apache, vsftp = serverbox more or less
[20:26] <Abatrour> htmljunkie, you will be interested in ubuntu home server when it comes out
[20:26] <khermans> redspike, yes amd64 is notacutally proper
[20:26] <slanning> hi - I upgraded feisty to gibbon, and apache (1.3) is no longer available (I thought the "obsolete" package would be replaced by something, but I guess not) - how do I get it back?
[20:26] <Dozier> does ubuntu have a built in firewall?
[20:26] <htmljunkie> abat when is that ue
[20:26] <htmljunkie> due
[20:26] <Dr_willis> !firewall | Dozier
[20:26] <ubotu> Dozier: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[20:27] <khermans> Dozier, iptables
[20:27] <Strangewor1> Yo, when I attempt to play videos via VLC and Totem Movie Player, the videos are sometimes in grayscale.
[20:27] <nickrud> harm, particularly after it's been run once and closed
[20:27] <ikonia> Dozier: yes, called iptables
[20:27] <Dozier> !firewall
[20:27] <harm> nickrud: well on my super fresh Desktop install it takes a bit longer then it should and on my abused laptop it can take twice as long as it should.. perhaps its because of gnome-manager or something?
[20:27] <Dozier> thanks
[20:27] <Abatrour> html, i have no clue
[20:27] <Kunzy> Hate to interrupt your other conversations but i fear i may be here all day.  Does anyone know how to install ATI Radeon X1900GT drivers.  I realize they are proprietary, but is there a way i can get 3d effects and such.  I eventually want to put Beryl on here.
[20:27] <htmljunkie> kunzy good luck
[20:27] <htmljunkie> I have the same issue
[20:27] <ikonia> Kunzy: beryl is dead
[20:27] <harm> Kunzy: very possible.. please refer to the forums for more info
[20:27] <nickrud> harm, should? lol, that's a really objective measurement :)
[20:27] <Dr_willis> !ati | Kunzy
[20:27] <ubotu> Kunzy: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[20:27] <khermans> Kunzy, sudo restricted-manager
[20:27] <Kasplatt> uhm, how do I use .rpm packages in ubuntu ?
[20:27] <jsoftw> I have put a bigger LCD on my ubuntu box. How do I get ubuntu to reconfig X for i ?
[20:27] <Dr_willis> !rpm | Kasplatt
[20:27] <ubotu> Kasplatt: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[20:27] <jsoftw> I have put a bigger LCD on my ubuntu box. How do I get ubuntu to reconfig X for it ?
[20:27] <ikonia> Kunzy: ubuntu 7.10 comes with compiz-fusion already installed which means you already have the new version of beryl
[20:28] <Palthron> Dr_willis : firewall is off from the start. i don't want it bugging me for now. got enough problems as it is :)
[20:28] <nickrud> Kasplatt, by trying very very hard to find an alternative
[20:28] <khermans> jsoftw, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[20:28] <redspike> ahh ok
[20:28] <Kasplatt> Dr_willis quite dangerous ?
[20:28] <ghost_> so all,  KDE4
[20:28] <ghost_> your thoughts?
[20:28] <sondad> %C2hi%C2
[20:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Kasplatt: Yes.. avoid doing it
[20:28] <BobArctor> ghost_: leave it, broken gor now
[20:28] <Dr_willis> Kasplatt,  use debs. :) lets just say leave it at that.
[20:28] <Kunzy> lol,   im a noob.  I found the setting to turn on the advanced desktop settings or whatever it is.  But i needed teh drivers.   Thanks ikonia
[20:28] <harm> ghost_: this isnt a discussion channel.. its a help channel, please refer to an offtopic chan
[20:28] <khermans> !alien | Kasplatt
[20:28] <ubotu> Kasplatt: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[20:28] <ghost_> BobArctor: release is on the 11th
[20:28] <redspike> khermans: you know where i find teh 64bit version of vmware server ? i can se it in downlod on vmware.com ?
[20:29] <Kasplatt> uhh , I need to install OpenAL and they don't have .deb packages
[20:29] <ikonia> FullMon-T: couple please put the output of "blkid" into a pastebin please.
[20:29] <khermans> redspike, it is there
[20:29] <FLUxXxX> hey! i've added bubblemon to my panel but now, HOW TO REMOVE IT? It doesn't have a right-click menu or anything!!
[20:29] <harm> Kasplatt: ur probally have to compile it..
[20:29] <BobArctor> ghost_: less functionality than 3.5, devel platform only IMO
[20:29] <htmljunkie> is it me or does ubuntu have so many users now support is limited?
[20:29] <ikonia> !caps | FLUxXxX
[20:29] <ubotu> FLUxXxX: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[20:29] <nickrud> Kasplatt, it might try to overwrite an existing file, but more importantly the rpm has a post install script that my do serious damage because it's assuming it's going into a system constructed in a particular way
[20:29] <Kasplatt> harm: okay , cool.
[20:29] <FLUxXxX> ikonia: pff
[20:29] <Dozier> I am unable to ping my router from my ubuntu box, even though I am pulling an IP address and can ping the box from other machines

[20:29] <Strangewor1> Yo, when I attempt to play videos via VLC and Totem Movie Player, the videos are sometimes in grayscale.
[20:29] <harm> Kasplatt: just check the wiki on install instructions on howto compile.. goodluck
[20:29] <FrancM> hi everyone
[20:29] <khermans> FLUxXxX, ikonia has a hard-on for the rules
[20:29] <Kasplatt> nickrud: I'll just compile it from source then.
[20:29] <Cpudan80> Dozier: DHCP or static IP?
[20:29] <FLUxXxX> i see
[20:29] <ikonia> khermans: no, I just respect them
[20:29] <Dozier> cpudan80: dhcp
[20:30] <Jack_Sparrow> khermans: Behave yourself
[20:30] <FactTech> ikonia Hey -- Just wanted to say thank you -- you helped me quite a few times when I was first learning Linux, and this year I've been able to leave Windows behind for good.
[20:30] <Kasplatt> harm: yeah I know the basics :P
[20:30] <khermans> Jack_Sparrow, o_O ?
[20:30] <Cpudan80> Dozier: Are you pinging by name or IP?
[20:30] <eckesicle> Strangewor1: did you download an old movie? I can recommend Casablanca
[20:30] <redspike> khermans: i only se one VMware Server for Linux.  rpm or / tgz
[20:30] <ikonia> FactTech: your welcome
[20:30] <nickrud> Kasplatt, usually a better choice. You should look into checkinstall, it can create a rough deb out of your compiled stuff, makes it easy to remove when you want
[20:30] <htmljunkie> facttech now teach me haha
[20:30] <ghost_> BobArctor: less functionality that 3.5? all the old Qt apps will no longer work/require updates?
[20:30] <Dozier> cpudan80: i'm pinging the box by ip
[20:30] <FLUxXxX> so, anyone knows how to remove this piece of.. or are we gonna discuss channel rules ?
[20:30] <derzis> FLUxXxX:  esti un cacat.
[20:30] <khermans> RedHeron, tgz but get the 64bit version
[20:30] <Kunin> ok... I figured out my problem lies with Xinerama... now the question is how to fix it

[20:30] <Strangewor1> eckesicle: lol! Noo, sometimes when I play it, it is in color, sometimes it isn't.
[20:30] <BobArctor> ghost_: spot on, thats the issue, it's for show and devel
[20:30] <FactTech> htmljunkie I do what I can but I'm learning much more than teaching these days.
[20:30] <FLUxXxX> derzis: this is an english channel
[20:30] <ikonia> FLUxXxX: you won't get help with that attitude

[20:31] <eckesicle> Strangewor1: it is only for divxmovies right?
[20:31] <redspike> khermans: ot that version support both 32 and 64 bit?
[20:31] <ghost_> BobArctor: fair enough. Guess I can wait 6 more months :)
[20:31] <Cpudan80> Dozier: Pastebin the output of ifconfig
[20:31] <htmljunkie> harm how can i make the ftp server
[20:31] <Strangewor1> eckesicle: excuse me?
[20:31] <htmljunkie> want to learn that first
[20:31] <khermans> redspike, your qeustion is ambiguous
[20:31] <htmljunkie> if it's easy to do plz tell me how
[20:31] <ikonia> htmljunkie: I've told you 2 times there are guides on https://help.ubuntu.com
[20:31] <ghost_> join #linux
[20:31] <ghost_> woops
[20:31] <BobArctor> ghost_: only solution really, there is a live disc from suse if you wanna see, google it up
[20:31] <khermans> redspike, it is a 64-bit binary -- it cnanot be run on 32-bit only hardware
[20:31] <htmljunkie> the guides are only gui base ones
[20:31] <harm> htmljunkie: sudo apt-get install vsftp then u can login on your server with your linux loginname and password
[20:31] <htmljunkie> k
[20:31] <htmljunkie> thanks harm
[20:31] <khermans> redspike, however it does support both 64 and 32 bit guests
[20:31] <Cpudan80> Dozier: Or actually, you can just do ifconfig | grep inet addr
[20:31] <ikonia> htmljunkie: the guides are not gui based
[20:31] <eckesicle> Strangewor1: nvm. Start totem
[20:31] <ghost_> well i was going to wait till official releases next week
[20:32] <eckesicle> Strangewor1: Go to Edit and Preferences
[20:32] <Cpudan80> Dozier: put inet addr in " "
[20:32] <Dozier> cpudan80: i can't, I'm on IRC via my windows machine right now.....i'll try that "grep" command
[20:32] <harm> htmljunkie: if u want to access ur server from outside your network (house) u will need to forward port 21 (www.portforward.com)
[20:32] <FLUxXxX> i've added bubblemon to my panel but now, HOW TO REMOVE IT? It doesn't have a right-click menu or anything!! is there a way to remove items from panel except deleting the whole panel? like gconf-config or something?

[20:35] <FLUxXxX> Jack_Sparrow: apt-get i think
[20:35] <FLUxXxX> yeah
[20:35] <harm> htmljunkie: depends.. first time yes.. after a couple of tries it can be done but it is a bit advanced
[20:35] <ikonia> FullMon-T: ok - so your 3rd disk cannot be seen at all
[20:35] <eckesicle> lostsanity: type: dmesg | tail
[20:35] <Dr_willis> FLUxXxX,  use ps , get its pid. kill the pid. or use xkill
[20:35] <rohan> FLUxXxX: what thing are you talking about?
[20:35] <ikonia> FLUxXxX: can you see that disk in the bios ?
[20:35] <FullMon-T> ikonia: that is correct.
[20:35] <Palthron> FLUxXxX: use alacarte
[20:35] <nickrud> Kasplatt, install build-essential
[20:35] <FLUxXxX> ok
[20:35] <Jack_Sparrow> FLUxXxX: look it up in synaptic, select it for removal if that is what you want to do.
[20:36] <FLUxXxX> Dr_willis but when relogin, wouldn't it show-up again?
[20:36] <Cpudan80> Dozier: Ok - on the ubuntu box right click the networking icon and hit connection info
[20:36] <Kasplatt> nickrud: thanks
[20:36] <harm> htmljunkie: but basically you have to change /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/default and perhaps two other files.. u can definatly find some awsome tutorials online
[20:36] <Dr_willis> FLUxXxX,  it might.. or it might not.. thats what 'sessions' are all about.
[20:36] <Dozier> cpudan80:ok
[20:36] <whiting> is there away to get a streaming mp3 to play at startup
[20:36] <khermans> redspike, replace the i386 in the dowload file name with x86_64
[20:36] <harm> htmljunkie: one tutorial which helped me was Perfect ubuntu webserver setup
[20:36] <Cpudan80> Dozier: Verify that the gateway is set correctly (default route)
[20:36] <Kasplatt> nickrud: it tells me to install my ubuntu disc ..

[20:36] <htmljunkie> ty
[20:36] <FLUxXxX> Jack_Sparrow: i want to cleanly remove it from the panel. i think removing it with apt-get while it's still on the panel will leave me with a could not found something error
[20:36] <Dozier> cpudan80: it is
[20:36] <Horgrathi> Can anyone help me with a microphone issue please?
[20:37] <Cpudan80> Dozier: can you ping somewhere outside your network?
[20:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Kasplatt: remove the cdd from your sources.list
[20:37] <redspike> khermans: we talk about vmware server now?
[20:37] <nickrud> Kasplatt, system->admin->software sources, enable the first four and disable the cdrom .  Then   sudo apt-get update  , then install build-essential
[20:37] <Jack_Sparrow> FLUxXxX: It should remove it cleanlyu
[20:37] <FullMon-T> Horgrathi: Do you have Alsa?
[20:37] <ikonia> FLUxXxX: apt-get while it's on the pannel will do no damage
[20:37] <khermans> redspike, http://download3.vmware.com/software/vmserver/VMware-server-e.x.p-63231.x86_64.tar.gz
[20:37] <Horgrathi> FullMon-T: Yes, I do
[20:37] <ultimo> carai véi
[20:37] <Dozier> cpudan80: it's the same gateway as my windows box......i cannot ping anything outside my network, but i can ping my windows box from the ubuntu machine
[20:37] <FLUxXxX> ikonia: please don't speak to me
[20:37] <Palthron> FLUxXxX: here's a review for alacarte http://linux.about.com/od/ubuntu_doc/a/ubudg10t2.htm
[20:37] <khermans> redspike, i think vmware server 2.0 sux though
[20:37] <ikonia> FLUxXxX: I'm informing you of fact
[20:37] <Dozier> cpudan80: also, i cannot ping the default gateway
[20:37] <ultimo> puta que o pariu tudo em inglês
[20:37] <Kunin> nvidia + Xinerama + GLX = not working GLX... how do I fix it?
[20:37] <redspike> khermans: thanx man!
[20:38] <FullMon-T> Horgrathi: try asking in #ALSA. It's a little channel, but if you can find a guy named wishie, he is a pro.
[20:38] <Cpudan80> Dozier: open System --> Admin --> Network, look at the DNS tab
[20:38] <khermans> redspike, np
[20:38] <Kunin> Xorg log is clear as is dmesg
[20:38] <Cpudan80> Dozier: make sure your gateway is listed as the first DNS server
[20:38] <FLUxXxX> Palthron: thank you. i quickly searched for it and i saw that's a menu editor. will look into it to see if it also removes applets from panel
[20:38] <khermans> Dozier, cat /etc/resolv.conf ?
[20:38] <Kunin> turn off Xinerama and it works, but I need Xinerama
[20:38] <lostsanity> eckesicle, ok.. should i look for somethign in specific? or just tell you what it said?
[20:38] <lostsanity> something*
[20:38] <ikonia> FLUxXxX: just remove it with apt-get, it is the safest and cleanest way
[20:38] <Tm_T> FLUxXxX: no, menueditor wont touch panel applets
[20:38] <Horgrathi> FullMon-T: I can try again, but no one seems to be alive in their
[20:38] <nickrud> FLUxXxX, no, it does not. Ikonia knows what he's talking about
[20:38] <Kasplatt> Jack_Sparrow: I actually got the disc somewhere , is it better to do the other way , or ?
[20:39] <FullMon-T> Horgrathi: Go to terminal and type in "alsamixer"\
[20:39] <Dozier> cpudan80: ok, also, do i want roaming mode enabled on the interface?
[20:39] <FullMon-T> Horgrathi: Go to terminal and type in "alsamixer"
[20:39] <FLUxXxX> ok, thanks Jack_Sparrow for pointing the tip of removing it with apt-get
[20:39] <redspike> khermans: http://download3.vmware.com/software/vmserver/VMware-server-1.0.4-63231.x86_64.tar.gz File not found :(
[20:39] <Cpudan80> Dozier: yep
[20:39] <Dozier> k
[20:39] <Palthron> oops sorry, i thought he just wan't to remove the icon in the menu, not uninstalling the program
[20:39] <eckesicle> lostsanity: put it in a pastebin
[20:39] <khermans> redspike, i am not sure if there is a 1.x 86_64 release
[20:39] <Horgrathi> FullMon-T: Yeah, that is were the problem is, in Capture under Mic, its just a red L and R, but I can not change the volume
[20:39] <eckesicle> !pastebin | lostsanity

[20:40] <nickrud> lol ikonia it happens to everyone, clueless ones thinking they know more
[20:40] <Palthron> in that case, long live apt-get

[20:40] <Cpudan80> Dozier: after you make sure that's ok, do sudo cat /etc/resolv.conf and look at the nameserver line
[20:40] <Jack_Sparrow> FLUxXxX: np
[20:40] <Dozier> cpudan80: i added the default route in the dns tab (0.128) but i still cannot ping it

[20:50] <FullMon-T> Horgrathi: I remeber having to restart the whole comp when I was troubleshooting with ALSA.
[20:50] <Cpudan80> Dozier: it might be useful to add the DHCP box as a secondary DNS (if it can do DNS)

If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[20:55] <Niteye> with what can i open .pub (microsoft publisher files) in ubuntu?
[20:55] <Kasplatt> I have to fix my sound problem ..
[20:55] <Jostein> no
[20:55] <ikonia> FullMon-T: excuse me, sorry. Try setting it to "slave" not cable select
[20:56] <nila> ok dude
[20:56] <Cpudan80> Dozier: I think you said the address was .250 ... that's way up there in the lease range --- are you sure that is valid for your config?
[20:56] <nila> thanks a lot
[20:56] <Kunzy> oh, it was ubotu
[20:56] <nila> let me have a look
[20:56] <Jack_Sparrow> lostsanity:   How and when did you install flash
[20:56] <FullMon-T> ikonia, it is a crappy drive out of an old compuke. There is no "slave", just "master" and "cable select"
[20:56] <Dozier> cpudan80: yes, my ipcop gives out address in that range.  my windows machine is 254, xbox is 253, etc
[20:56] <pooyak> hi
[20:56] <ikonia> FullMon-T: what is the other disk set to ?
[20:56] <fitztrev> Is there a search program for Ubuntu that allows you to specify a directory and search within files?
[20:56] <Cpudan80> oh ok it descends the range
[20:57] <Habibi>  Guys, this is a really dumb question, if you had the hardware (high specs) and all you needed windows for is some adobe programs, which would you use, xp or vista??
[20:57] <Kunzy> Ok, so then does anyone know hot i can go about enabling this xorg-driver-fglrx so i can enable it for my ATI Radeon X1900GT video card?
[20:57] <Jack_Sparrow> FullMon-T: What brand.. some use no jumper for stand alone
[20:57] <shadix> Jack_Sparrow: I have the image I want i just need to change the color around it>
[20:57] <Dozier> cpudan80: correct
[20:57] <gcleric> Niteye: Check out http://convert.neevia.com/.
[20:57] <ikonia> Habibi: join ##windows
[20:57] <pooyak> I have one of these board games that come with a dvd but most software I try on linux have problems playing it correctly. any suggestions on what to try?
[20:57] <Jack_Sparrow> shadix: All I know about splash.. is on the link I gave..
[20:57] <Habibi>  ikonia, i was asking for an opinon
[20:57] <evan_> i have a question about skype, i installed it then tested calling it by calling my home phone and it worked. the bad part is that i do not have an account and it said it was going to bill for 2cents a minute. i did not type in my adress, will skype come after me :(?
[20:57] <ompaul> Habibi, not here it is offtopic thanks
[20:57] <shadix> Jack_Sparrow: thx
[20:57] <PriceChild> Habibi, windows discussion in ##windows
[20:57] <Parsec300> Is there an issue with Ubuntu connecting to a Belkin wireless router?
[20:57] <Horgrathi> FullMon-T: sadly it did not help
[20:58] <PriceChild> Parsec300, routers are routers. If there's an issue, its with your card.
[20:58] <Laney> I just asked this in #xubuntu, but does anyone know how to stop the display from suspending after 10 minutes? It happens no matter what I disable (even DPMS in xorg.conf)..
[20:58] <Dozier> cpudan80: hmm, my ipcop box can't ping the ubuntu machine either
[20:58] <lostsanity> jack_sparrow, went to adobe's website and did the manual install, and it was not long before it started now that you mention it, however i think i used the automatic install thinger from firefox directly before that but it didn't work
[20:58] <Niteye> so i have to convert the .pub files first to .pdf with a website?? isnt there any program that can just open them as they are?
[20:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Parsec300: I had a router issue this week...  Other pc's could connect, the new one could not.. I finally replaced the router and all is well
[20:58] <Parsec300> PriceChild, I can't connect to my Belkin, but I can connect to my neighbours router. Both no encryption.
[20:59] <kassi> hi, i do believe i sucessfully installed the drivers for my wireless usb device, but when i go to configure my network i dont have wireless listed, just modem and ethernet.  what to do?  this a thread on the subject, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4085719&posted=1#post4085719  and i'm following this wiki, written by the guy replying to me in the thread... https://help.ubuntu.com/communit

[20:59] <PriceChild> paradon, mac filtering?
[20:59] <Jack_Sparrow> lostsanity: So that is where the issue started...    I can offer a workaround.. but it would be better to wait if you can.. How long.. no one knows
[20:59] <Dozier> cpudan80: i even tried changing my ethernet cable being used on ubuntu and moving to a new port
[20:59] <Cpudan80> Dozier: Makes me think that the ubuntu box isn't getting a valid IP
[20:59] <Dozier> cpudan80: maybe, but it appears to be, no?
[21:00] <Cpudan80> Dozier: Can the dlink thing ping the ubuntu box?
[21:00] <Dozier> cpudan80: i doubt it but i'll try
[21:00] <FullMon-T> ikonia: The IDE running Ubuntu is set to master. The one that isn't working is a Seagate "baracuda 2800" made for Compaq.
[21:00] <Cpudan80> It would be bad if it could
[21:00] <Dozier> indeed
[21:00] <Cpudan80> Dozier: It does look like the IP is valid though, very weird
[21:00] <ikonia> FullMon-T: I can't see a reason it would be seein in bios/windows yet no ubuntu
[21:00] <ikonia> FullMon-T: I'll have to ponder
[21:00] <gcleric> Niteye: not that I'm aware of...
[21:00] <FullMon-T> Horgrathi: Wait around for Wishie on #ALSA. It's worth it.
[21:00] <lostsanity> Jack_Sparrow, wait for what?
[21:01] <Dozier> cpudan80: router can't ping anything, since the ipcop won't receive pings from the internet side
[21:01] <FullMon-T> ikonia: hold that thought, I'll be back.
[21:01] <lbe_> Anyone got the quickfix for the flashplayer-nonfree?
[21:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Parsec300: It drove me crazy.. I could connect with other computers to the "Bad" router just not the new one.  I could connect the new one to other routers with no problem.. made me insane
[21:01] <rbanffy> In a x86 box the DHCP client gets an IP address but is unable to reach anything outside of the local net. The router is a D-Link 524up, the computer is connected via the wired network and two different NICs were used with the same result. Another ubuntu box is working properly (this notebook I am using) and is connected via the wired network. Has anyone ever experienced such weirdness? Is anyone interested in understanding this annoying
[21:01] <Dozier> cpudan80: correction, router can't ping anything in front of my ipcop box
[21:01] <ikonia> lbe: there isn't onw
[21:01] <ikonia> one
[21:01] <Horgrathi> FullMon-T: ok
[21:01] <sk_> hello
[21:01] <PriceChild> lbe, install manually from the adobe site (don't if you use konqueror)
[21:01] <Jack_Sparrow> lostsanity: Wait for the real fix to be released
[21:01] <Cpudan80> Dozier: oh I see - makes sense
[21:01] <lbe> Yeah but there is no 64bit version
[21:01] <Dozier> cpudan80: yeah, i forgot about that before I tried it
[21:01] <EgonStork> ikonia: Compiling a custom kernel makes a booting speed difference. The trick is to unconfigure all the things you don't use but making sure you have the things you really need still.
[21:01] <EgonStork> ikonia: do you believe that statement to be true or false ?
[21:01] <ikonia> EgonStork: where did that come from ?
[21:02] <sk_> while trying to enable bcm43xx with fw-cutter i get this error in dmesg PCI: No IRQ known for interrupt pin A of device 0000:03 :00.0.
[21:02] <sk_>  what does this mean? the irq is already in use?
[21:02] <ikonia> EgonStork: that's not true
[21:02] <Cpudan80> Dozier: Can you plug the nix box directly into the dlink router?
[21:02] <ikonia> EgonStork: not for ubuntu
[21:02] <Cpudan80> As a sanity check?
[21:02] <BlackCow> ok so im using VSFTPD, everything works fine over the LAN but when I try to connect globally I get an error that says, "Entering PASV mode, failed to get directory listing, Bad IP connecting", any ideas?
[21:02] <ikonia> EgonStork: but this is not for an ubuntu support channel
[21:02] <Dozier> cpudan80: not without taking my current IRC connection offline
[21:02] <Dozier> cpudan80: i can try to make my ubuntu connect wirelessly instead
[21:02] <Cpudan80> That would work

[21:02] <Nyb> Hello boys and girls
[21:02] <lostsanity> jack_Sparrow, hmm.. well is that what's causing the crashes without any browser up too then?
[21:02] <EgonStork> ikonia: Linux is linux sos it must be true for all linux distributions
[21:03] <nugz1212> i need to check something here before i install ubuntu
[21:03] <Cpudan80> Dozier: you don't have any firewalls on it do you (firestarter)?
[21:03] <BlackCow> I tried setting a range of PASV ports in the config file and forwardng them on the router, no help :-(
[21:03] <Jack_Sparrow> lostsanity: or  The workaround I used is to first go to synaptic, select the flashplugin-nonfree package and then mark it for *complete* removal. Then install the hardy flashplugin,  http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10761023/flashplugin-nonfree_<IP_ADDRESS>ubuntu2_i386.deb

[21:05] <nugz1212> gtk doesnt
[21:05] <Dozier> cpudan80: so it's not the ubuntu box, must be the ipcop box
[21:05] <ader10> nugz1212: yes, I know, but how much more resources does emerald use
[21:05] <Cpudan80> Dozier: and what kind of info is it getting?
[21:06] <nugz1212> obviously more
[21:06] <crdlb> nugz1212: err no
[21:06] <ader10> ?
[21:06] <Dozier> cpudan80: the correct info (aka an ip address and subnet based on the router's one)
[21:06] <nugz1212> wats the err no for
[21:06] <crdlb> nugz1212: both gtk-window-decorator and emerald are decorators for compiz, so they both need compiz (and only need Xgl with certain video cards)
[21:06] <nugz1212> what im use to it does
[21:07] <ader10> nugz1212: how _much_ more resources does emerald use compared to gtk-window-decorator?
[21:07] <nugz1212> gtk came default on my system with no compiz or anything
[21:07] <crdlb> although metacity looks like gtk-window-decorator (they use the same thing), they *are* not related
[21:07] <nickrud> crdlb, do you have an opinion on the newest ati drivers
[21:07] <heatmzzr> are there any good games for linux?
[21:07] <Cpudan80> Dozier: sounds like something is up with your IPCop box
[21:07] <nugz1212> i dont know eactly
[21:07] <crdlb> nugz1212: that is the metacity window manager, not gtk-window-decorator
[21:07] <PriceChild> crdlb, other way around ;)
[21:07] <Jack_Sparrow> heatmzzr: What kind of games do you like
[21:07] <Cpudan80> Dozier: why do you have it anyway? What's wrong with DLink's software?
[21:07] <heatmzzr> first person shooters i guess
[21:08] <BlackCow> i guess i need to take it to the fourms, every thread made on my issue has no definitive answer though *sigh*
[21:08] <nugz1212> anyone here sucessfully running a linksys wmp300n on ubuntu?

[21:08] <e67> how to change default runlevel in upstart ??
[21:08] <nugz1212> heatmzzr: most of id's software have a native linux installer since id supports linux
[21:08] <nickrud> ask, and you shall receive

[21:09] <Spl33n> Hi all! Why do I get several (five) different temperatures listed when I check CPU temperature with acpi -t command? Does that mean I have several temperature sensors in my laptop?
[21:09] <PriceChild> crdlb, I know :)
[21:09] <heatmzzr> how do i get them?
[21:09] <Galactic> nickrud hey do you know how to enable dvd playback?
[21:09] <Cpudan80> Dozier: I'd get rid of the IPCop box lol
[21:09] <Jack_Sparrow> heatmzzr: So you see, you have a few choices
[21:09] <nugz1212> only enemy terrtory is free
[21:09] <Cpudan80> Dozier: If you need more power out of your router, check out DD-WRT
[21:09] <ader10> heatmzzr: search google for "enemy territory ubuntu"
[21:09] <nugz1212> you have to buy the windows CD's for the rest of them
[21:09] <heatmzzr> ok thanks
[21:10] <Dozier> cpudan80: yeah, i've messed with that before too
[21:10] <Galactic> nevermind
[21:10] <nickrud> Galactic, I used https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu#head-381bea41610683e5e26322fd7028e7aef85e3105 to get libdvdcss2 and installed vlc as my player
[21:10] <nugz1212> heatmzzr wolfentstein Enemy Territory is free, however Enemy Territory Quake Wars is not
[21:10] <Dozier> cpudan80: that requires a linksys-g though right?
[21:10] <shadix_> ok i chose this usplash http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/blue+turbulence?content=32843 and installed it using the "splash screen app" the problem is that the area around the splash is still brown, how can I change it.

[21:11] <Cpudan80> Dozier: Open-WRT is similar and supports more routers
[21:11] <protocol1> is there a way to get a XiFi sound card working?
[21:11] <Cpudan80> little bit harder to setup though
[21:11] <nugz1212> i know how to get it on opensuse, but not ubuntu
[21:11] <Kasplatt> heatmzzr: Quake3Arena is ok too :P
[21:11] <Dozier> cpudan80: i don't mind complicated, as you can see per my current setup
[21:11] <nugz1212> Quake 4 is the best quake ever
[21:11] <Cpudan80> Dozier: lol
[21:11] <Kasplatt> nugz1212: haven't tried it ..

[21:15] <omar_> is this the help channel for ubuntu?
[21:15] <Cpudan80> Dozier: I haven't looked into open-wrt that much to be honest, I think it's more modular -- so you don't have to install all the parts if you dont want to

[21:20] <shadix_> just would like other resources if one's too busy right now this is my issue
[21:20] <shadix_> ok i chose this usplash http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/blue+turbulence?content=32843 and installed it using the "splash screen app" the problem is that the area around the splash is still brown, how can I change it.
[21:20] <nugz1212> as of right now i can only get interent through wifi
[21:21] <biggie> ---------------Does anyone know way may HAL won't start---------------------
[21:21] <reckahomis1> because there are a funcions  wich are in conio.h like clrscr()................... but i don't have it in /usr/include
[21:21] <mindframe> is there a way to remove a package without removing all the packages that depend on it?
[21:21] <Praveen> nugz1212: lol. thats odd normally you wouldnt be able to get internet through wifi with ubuntu
[21:21] <PriceChild> biggie, please don't spam like that
[21:21] <ryanpg> I tried apt-get install read-edid but that fails with "read-edid is not available but is reffered to by another package."
[21:21] <nugz1212> theres a guy latter on that describes the ndiswrapper way im use to
[21:22] <nugz1212> with the new update, will this work?

[21:22] <Kunzy> Hmm, i'm stuck.   I am trying to install my video card.  Its an ATI radeon.  I go to enablet he restricted drivers, but it says the xorg-driver-fglrx is not enabled.  I made sure its installed, but how do i enable it?
[21:22] <unenough> Hi, i have a AMD Turion64 x2 notebook, but i think my ubuntu is running 32-bit. how can i check?
[21:22] <Fish-Face> I can't get my DVD drive to work. It's an IDE drive connected to a SATA port via an adaptor.
[21:23] <biggie> ------------------------------------------i try to get into services but i am unable--------------------------------
[21:23] <Fish-Face> This: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/51012/ is what happens when I reinsert the ahci module
[21:23] <branstrom> PriceChild: no, it doesn't show the name of the card? Should I use something else to show that?
[21:23] <ryanpg> unenough, which model laptop do you have?
[21:23] <unenough> Toshiba A215
[21:23] <umbrella> How can I get Startup Manager on Ubuntu?
[21:23] <PriceChild> branstrom, name of the card?

[21:23] <branstrom> The model
[21:23] <branstrom> oh
[21:23] <Laney> unenough: Try `uname -m'
[21:23] <unenough> i686
[21:24] <Fish-Face> The drive worked on an old motherboard (with more IDE space) is detected correctly in that dmesg paste, and is bootable.
[21:24] <Fish-Face> i.e. the drive and adaptor work

[21:25] <rubystallion>  I need to configure a PPTP vpn connection and I've been shown how to do it for Windows. What's the easiest way to do it for linux now? I could only install new programs by downloading them with windows, burning them to a CD and then compiling them in linux.
[21:25] <MenZa> I don't remember

[21:27] <branstrom> not the other one
[21:27] <syntaxerror55> theunixgeek, A Galician channel? What's Galician? :|
[21:27] <Kunzy> unenough: ok, i will give that a try

[21:27] <nugz1212> like is it at least detected?
[21:27] <theunixgeek> syntaxerror55: what's !eo?
[21:27] <branstrom> so I can't really open the box and read on the card

[21:29] <posingaspopular> QUESTION: is there a way to change the multiple desktops with different background images?
[21:29] <branstrom> PriceChild: so there's no way to display a simple card -> interface listing?
[21:29] <branstrom> piglit: hm
[21:29] <nero> say, is there a good linux file renaming utility?  I have a whole diretory of files..  with names like: file1-projectName.doc, file2-projectName.doc, etc..  (300 of them)  I'd like to remove the "-projectName" from each file.

[21:30] <unenough> i have a 64-bit computer and i'm running 32-bit. a bit of a waste, no?

[21:30] <hydoskee_> how do you format a disk and restore with the contents of a .iso file?
[21:30] <hydoskee_> as in, to make it bootable
[21:30] <solomon> how might i go about setting up cpu frequency scaling to underclock my box on every boot?
[21:31] <Laney> unenough: Well you can always install the 64 bit version if you want
[21:31] <solomon> i've used it to underclock it once, but is there some smart way to do it automagically?
[21:31] <nugz1212> im gonna go install ubuntu
[21:31] <Galactic> how do you enable sound on ubuntu?
[21:31] <nugz1212> cya

[21:31] <posingaspopular> !sound | Galactic
[21:31] <ubotu> Galactic: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

[21:32] <Juice^> Hi, i accidently partioned a new ex3 and swap partion over my existing two ntfs partitions while installing ubuntu 7.10 - i ran testdisk to check the possibility for a restore - but i could not restore these to this same disk because of missing space. is there any utiltity that will allow me to browse a recovered/found ntfs partition and copy over specific files to be recovered? i am not in need of all, mostly documents and project files etc
[21:32] <mactimes> Hello everyone
[21:33] <unenough> Laney: i have a 64-bit computer and i'm running 32-bit. a bit of a waste, no?
[21:33] <Laney> unenough: Yes, I replied to that. If you want you can install the amd64 version of Ubuntu, nothing stopping you.
[21:33] <mactimes> I've just installed Gutsy and enabled restricted Nvidia drivers, but now my windows have no borders, no close, minimize or maximize buttons.  how do I fix it?
[21:33] <emma> ahhhhhhh.. i finally got it to work again...
[21:34] <emma> I was able to use the UBUNTU Live CD to get Grub working again. But then it took a long time to fix the xorg.conf file
[21:34] <stroyan> nero:  If you install the perl package you get /usr/bin/rename.  See "man rename".  Or just use bash- for file in *-projectName.doc;do mv $file ${file/-projectName/};done
[21:34] <emma> Please let me warn everyone: ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP before you fiddle with xorg.conf !
[21:34] <PriceChild> !xconfig | emma
[21:34] <unenough> Laney: great, i just want to know how to do it without reinstalling from scratch (for example, apt-get install SOMETHING...)
[21:35] <PriceChild> emma, see the second command from ubotu
[21:35] <nero> stroyan, thanks.. I have perl installed, so I'll give that a try.
[21:35] <ubotu> emma: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg » - To configure only the driver and resolution, type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh » - See also !FixRes
[21:35] <FastZ_> mactimes:  what model video card to you have?
[21:35] <Laney> unenough: I don't think you can, since it involves replacing all of your packages which were compiled for x86 with their amd64 counterparts.
[21:35] <unenough> Laney: ok, thanks
[21:35] <emma> PriceChild yes I kind of did all that, and then some.
[21:36] <mactimes> FastZ, MSI Nvidia GeForce4 4800 Ti SE
[21:36] <emma> It was really bad. Im not sure if my resolution is as good as it could or should be. I don't know if things are smaller or if that's my imagination.
[21:37] <Tyczek> why gnome-brightness-panel can't read the entries in /proc/acpi/video/VGA/LCD/brightness
[21:37] <Tyczek> ?
[21:38] <Juice^> anyone with knowlegde for NTFS partition/files recovery?`please..
[21:38] <EvaLuaTe> hello
[21:38] <Niteye> Juice^: your best bet is to rewrite the partition table exacly as it was before
[21:38] <EvaLuaTe> how to enable root account please ?
[21:39] <mactimes> EvaLuaTe, sudo passwd root
[21:39] <bolt> how can I chose which locales to generate and set the default one? "dpkg-reconfigure locales" doesn't present any kind of menu anymore, it just regenerates the selected locales, which is only en_US.UTF-8
[21:39] <Juice^> Niteye: really, do it live from a boot cd running testdisk and try a full restore?
[21:39] <EvaLuaTe> mactimes, ok, thank you sir
[21:39] <Cpudan80> EvaLuaTe: sudo -i thing would be better
[21:39] <microphex> i just downloaded the latest version of ubuntu...but i dont have any blank cds! :(
[21:39] <mactimes> EvaLuaTe, you're welcome =)
[21:39] <FrostRat> unenough: If you are curious about 64 bit ubuntu, try installing it onto a spare partition... that way you can see if you like it (there are a few annoyances with it that you may not like)
[21:40] <B-rabbit> how polite :)
[21:40] <PriceChild> !root | EvaLuaTe
[21:40] <ubotu> EvaLuaTe: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[21:40] <unenough> FrostRat such as?
[21:40] <PriceChild> mactimes, please educate about sudo rather than giving it straight ;)
[21:40] <EvaLuaTe> Cpudan80, i was using that for a couple of months now and i'm fine with it, but i need to login via scp and i can't type sudo in there
[21:40] <Jowi> bolt: I think it's dpkg-reconfigure console-setup
[21:41] <Dr_willis> EvaLuaTe,  you ssh into the box as a user, then use sudo.
[21:41] <dontpanic> How can I configure software raid for the entire disk when installing ubuntu?
[21:41] <Dr_willis> EvaLuaTe,  direct logging in as root under ssh is disabled I do belive.
[21:41] <mactimes> PriceChild, Well, he asked a direct question.  I gave him a direct answer.  If he is asking about enabling root account, he must know what he wants...
[21:41] <pete> hi, X is claiming that it can't go above 640x480 right now, which is sort of weird given that I was in 1280x1024 right up until I restarted X a few minutes ago, which I did since xrandr -q showed my max res as 640x480. any ideas?
[21:41] <Jowi> !locales | bolt
[21:41] <ubotu> bolt: To set up and configure your locales, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LocaleConf
[21:41] <EvaLuaTe> Dr_willis, i use winscp, and i can't type any commands in there, it has a norton-like interface
[21:41] <PriceChild> mactimes, someone asking that question directly... doesn't know enough to know why ubuntu uses sudo.
[21:41] <Cpudan80> !xconfig | pete
[21:41] <ubotu> pete: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg » - To configure only the driver and resolution, type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh » - See also !FixRes
[21:41] <PriceChild> mactimes, and so its better that they are educated on that instead.
[21:41] <Cpudan80> pete: Do the second thing ( -phigh)
[21:41] <PriceChild> mactimes, they can then make an informed decision
[21:42] <piglit> pete: edit your xorg.conf etc/X11/xorg.conf
[21:42] <pete> Cpudan80: alright, I'll try that. cheers
[21:42] <Dr_willis> EvaLuaTe,  you are wanting to transfer files as the root user? Ick.  I would use winscp copy them to the users home dir. then ssh in and use sudo to move them where needed
[21:42] <FrostRat> unenough: if you haven't yet, definitely take a look at some of the 64bit discussions on ubuntuforums.org, you'll get a good idea if it's something you want to dive into or not
[21:42] <unenough> FrostRat: k, thx
[21:43] <Cpudan80> unenough: The main annoyance for me is firefox
[21:43] <EvaLuaTe> Dr_willis, that's too much trouble if i transfer many files, so i thought this would be an easier solution, to temporary enable root to do my work and then disable again
[21:43] <Cpudan80> unenough: Why ubuntu doesn't just use the 32 bit version by default is beyond me
[21:43] <Cpudan80> SuSE does
[21:43] <Dr_willis> EvaLuaTe,  you are going to have to enable a root password, then edit the sshd config file -> PermitRootLogin yes,  then restart sshd i imagine.
[21:43] <mactimes> PriceChild, I've been there, that's why I sent him a direct answer.  He didn't ask "why I cannot access root account", but "how do I enable it".  Sometimes, people just need a direct answer instead of lots of explanation about something.
[21:43] <PriceChild> Cpudan80, it does use it
[21:43] <EvaLuaTe> Dr_willis, ok, thank you sir
[21:44] <Cpudan80> PriceChild: It does?
[21:44] <Cpudan80> Since when?
[21:44] <EvaLuaTe> Dr_willis, and how to disable root once i finished please ?
[21:44] <PriceChild> Cpudan80, 32bit ubuntu uses 32bit firefox by default
[21:44] <mactimes> PriceChild, My guess is: If he wanted to know why root account comes disabled, he would google about it...
[21:44] <Dr_willis> EvaLuaTe,  for filemanaging under the shell as root. i tend to use 'mc' makes the jobs a lot easier.
[21:44] <Elmnas> hi guys
[21:44] <PriceChild> mactimes, assume nothing
[21:44] <unenough> Cpudan89 i guess i'll stay with this for now ;)
[21:44] <Cpudan80> PriceChild: *all* ubuntus should use 32 bit firefox
[21:44] <Elmnas> how I do install login skins I downloaded a .gz file
[21:44] <PriceChild> Cpudan80, 64bit?!
[21:44] <Cpudan80> PriceChild: There is no point to using 64 bit firefox
[21:44] <PriceChild> Cpudan80, just as there's no point using 64bit ubuntu then?
[21:45] <Cpudan80> PriceChild: x86_64 machines can run 32 bit binaries
[21:45] <PriceChild> Cpudan80, so then use the 32bit ubuntu?
[21:45] <Cpudan80> PriceChild: What?!? No way -- firefox is an exception
[21:45] <PriceChild> Cpudan80, lets take this to #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:45] <Cpudan80> ok
[21:46] <emma> Now. I have bought this new mouse. And it's a roller ball. It's called Marble Mouse Roller and it has buttons that you would use for scrolling. How can I make it scroll?
[21:46] <gitfiddler> Help! Ubuntu Noob, can't make links from /share drive

[21:47] <piglit> emma: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy#Logitech_Marble_Mouse
[21:48] <gitfiddler> Help! Ubuntu Noob, can't make links from /share drive
[21:48] <shadix_> PriceChild: Now I know ths
[21:48] <Galactic> everything I tried on there said my card was working
[21:48] <shadix_> thx
[21:48] <wow> Anyone care to help a newb with some problems installing a graphics card?
[21:48] <gitfiddler> I also cannot post to the forum for help, so hopint someone here can do it
[21:48] <gyaresu> !anyone > wow
[21:49] <x-X-x> how can i have just one system  bar with everything  instead of two ?
[21:49] <gyaresu> gitfiddler: Please detail what you are trying to do and someone will probably help you.
[21:49] <x-X-x> on my system
[21:49] <x-X-x> i just want 1 panel
[21:49] <gitfiddler> Thanks gyaresu
[21:50] <gitfiddler> The 'Make link' funtion returns an error when I try to use it on any folder/file on a fat32 partition
[21:51] <gitfiddler> the error is "operation not permitted" while making link
[21:51] <void^> gitfiddler: fat32 doesn't support symlinks.
[21:51] <wow> Ok well the card is a GeForce 8500 GT and when I put it in, I get the splash screen and then 4 lines of text and then nothing happens.
[21:52] <gyaresu> gitfiddler: :) there you go
[21:52] <Dr_willis> EvaLuaTe,  mc can do ftp and other protocals also.
[21:52] <gitfiddler> thanks
[21:52] <wow> I think I'll actually post this on the forums
[21:52] <Jowi> x-X-x: drag and drop what you want on panel 1 to panel 2 then right click on panel 2 and delete it.
[21:52] <Dr_willis> EvaLuaTe,  i tend to ssh to the box and use mc however. :)
[21:52] <gitfiddler> is there some other way to make them?
[21:52] <x-X-x> jowi thnx
[21:52] <emma> piglit this is the thing that made my x server crash... http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy#Logitech_Marble_Mouse
[21:52] <gyaresu> wow: Have you installed the nvidia drivers?
[21:52] <jebblue> 1fat32
[21:52] <gitfiddler> I need this in order to work between Win XP and Ubuntu
[21:52] <emma> piglit - I think maybe it's because i didn't put 'marble mouse' in the server layout section
[21:53] <patbam> how can i check my hard drive?
[21:53] <emma> piglit  -- but do you know what that means? server layout section? where do I put that?
[21:53] <wow> No, I haven't.  I thought it would boot but not make use of the card until I did.
[21:53] <gyaresu> patbam: download seagate seatools boot cd and test the drive.
[21:53] <humblerodent> anybody know much about IceWM?  I'm trying to eliminate the panel so I can totally replace it with a panel of my choosing.
[21:53] <gyaresu> patbam: http://www.seagate.com/support/seatools/
[21:54] <jebblue> gitfiddler http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=252887
[21:54] <gitfiddler> thanks jebblue
[21:54] <Dr_willis> humblerodent,  not sure thats doable. I cant recall ever seeing icewm without a panel. Check its configs perhaps.
[21:54] <patbam> gyaresu: isn't there a memory check thing available from grub?
[21:54] <humblerodent> Dr_willis, hm....
[21:54] <jebblue> gitfiddler welcome wish there was a way but copying is about the only option (to a Linux patition)
[21:54] <patbam> gyaresu: is it relevant that my drive isn't a seagate?
[21:55] <humblerodent> what j00 talkin' bout Dr_willis!
[21:55] <gyaresu> patbam: Yes. Install programme 'memtest86+' and it will be a boot option.
[21:55] <gyaresu> patbam: no. It's fine on any drive.
[21:55] <b4d> hi, how can i force synaptic to download packages instead of loading them from install cd, cause i don't have it atm?
[21:55] <gyaresu> patbam: Each manufacturer has their own but seatools will test almost any drive.
[21:55] <patbam> gyaresu: seems more future proof for me to learn this memtest86+ :)
[21:55] <gyaresu> patbam: You can always download it as an iso as well.
[21:56] <gitfiddler> hi jebblue
[21:56] <gyaresu> patbam: hirens disk has all these tools also version 9.1 but you'll only find it on bittorrent
[21:56] <gitfiddler> jebblue, that seems unfortunate
[21:56] <Ashfire> can i change the owner/group of a file/folder without being root?
[21:56] <gyaresu> emma: Can you post your /etc/X11/xorg.conf to pastebin please?
[21:56] <Jowi> Ashfire: yes, if you are the owner
[21:57] <DigitalNinja> Is anyone here using Cacti on Dapper?
[21:57] <patbam> gyaresu: can gparted do something similar? i seem to remember a "check" option in there
[21:57] <kkuhl> Hi... can anybody help with installing new themes in ubuntu??? I'm trying to install Mac4Lin 0.4
[21:57] <gyaresu> patbam: Testing the actual structure of the drive is best left to seatools.
[21:57] <DigitalNinja> kkuhl: Is that cool looking
[21:58] <jebblue> gitfiddler twang hehe yup, fat32 was just a tiny notch above fat - any chance you can change that drive to NTFS ? you would have more options then
[21:58] <kkuhl> Digital Ninja: Yeah
[21:58] <jebblue> gitfiddler nm ntfs won't do what you want in this context either I think
[21:59] <Derek_> I just started but I believe you can install themes by right clicking the desktop and select "change desktop background"
[21:59] <Jowi> Ashfire: correction - you can change group, not owner
[21:59] <patbam> wow, some blogs seem to suggest that memtest can take days to run
[21:59] <jebblue> gitfiddler http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-255573.html
[21:59] <Derek_> from there navigate to the themes tab and select install
[21:59] <emma> gyaresu sure... where is the pastebin?
[21:59] <gitfiddler> jebblue, yah, I could make it NTFS, but thought linux couldn't write to that
[21:59] <Pici> !paste | emma
[21:59] <ubotu> emma: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[21:59] <kkuhl> I just cant figure out how to apply the downloaded themes in "Appearance"
[21:59] <gyaresu> !pastebin > emma
[22:00] <Ashfire908> Jowi, of the file or the folder?
[22:00] <jebblue> gitfiddler well it can but I think the symlink issue would still remain unresolved
[22:00] <Differentreality> I have installed vmware in which I want to install xp prof.  At some point I am asked about i/o adapters ... should i choose buslogic or lsi logic ? and what are both of them ?
[22:00] <Derek_> I'm trying to figure out where to go to troubleshoot a videocard driver issue
[22:00] <Jowi> Ashfire908: both
[22:00] <jebblue> gitfiddler check out that last link I sent it has a good discussion
[22:01] <gitfiddler> jebblue, got it
[22:01] <gitfiddler> looks helpful
[22:01] <kkuhl> Help with installing themes appreciated..... !!!
[22:01] <Jowi> Ashfire908: so to summarise: you can change groups for files+folders but not the owner
[22:01] <toni_> kkuhl, which theme?
[22:02] <larson9999> errr, what's up with yahoo mail?
[22:02] <kkuhl> toni_: mac4lin 0.4
[22:02] <Derek_> what do you mean what's up with yahoo mail larson9999?
[22:02] <emma> ty gyaresu here it is -- http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/51016/
[22:03] <toni_> kkuhl, drag 'n drop in  themes selector and see what appen
[22:04] <kkuhl> toni_: Says it installs correctly buts doesnt show up?
[22:04] <larson9999> Derek_, normally i don't have any problems but in the last few minutes i've been getting goofy errors.  i'm logged in to yahoo but when i go to mail it says yahoo mail experienced a login error
[22:04] <toni_> kkuhl, click on personalize button and select :)
[22:05] <kkuhl> toni_: lol... that was easy... thx
[22:05] <Derek_> it may have been a temporary server issue
[22:05] <toni_> kkuhl,  nop
[22:05] <stoneDJay> Hello folks... Im on Live CD because my previous system installed had some problems after an update... My question is... Is there some way to recover my previous ubuntu structure, without format from live cd?
[22:06] <emma> gyaresu in order to make this new trackball Marble Mouse trackball have a scroll I'm about to replace what is in that first pastebin with this:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/51017/
[22:06] <larson9999> Derek_, you mean may be cause it's still happening
[22:06] <gyaresu> emma: You haven't left the marble mouse section in...
[22:06] <emma> the last time I tried to do this I crashed xserver and it was a big mess trying to fix it.
[22:06] <Doonz> question for you guys
[22:06] <gyaresu> emma: looking at new one...
[22:06] <jebblue> gitfiddler consider using rsync to sync your fat32 files with the ones on the ext3 drive - it is a very good utility, smart, after it does its initial sync is is generally very fast, it only copies ones that change and can (if you want it to) remove the files that are no long on the source drive using the --delete option
[22:06] <DigitalNinja> Cacti on dapper?
[22:06] <Derek_> my guess is as good as yours
[22:07] <Doonz> say i have 7 hdds in a system. 1 will be for the Ubuntu os. the other 6 are ntfs with data on them. will i be able to read them?
[22:07] <DigitalNinja> Doonz: Yes
[22:07] <gyaresu> emma: You're comfortable with going to ctrl+alt+F2 and backing up/editing your xorg.conf?
[22:07] <Doonz> kool
[22:07] <emma> I think I am now.
[22:07] <Doonz> and what is the kernel that is in 7.10?
[22:08] <DigitalNinja> 2.6.22
[22:08] <emma> I made a backup copy of it before I changed it. The backup copy is the first pastebin
[22:08] <silverphoenix_> hello, does any person know a good amule server list?
[22:08] <DigitalNinja> kernel 2.6.22 is in 7.10
[22:08] <larson9999> Derek_, ff via wine let me log in just fine.  kind funky.
[22:08] <Jowi> !info linux-image-generic | Doonz
[22:08] <ubotu> doonz: linux-image-generic: Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Version <IP_ADDRESS>.21 (gutsy), package size 24 kB, installed size 52 kB
[22:09] <gyaresu> emma: cool. that'll make it less painfull. Just a note, sometimes for no good reason I've found a restart has made a new xorg.conf work (when you're SURE it should). Just from experience in the past.
[22:09] <gitfiddler> jebblue, hmm, yes, tried the suggestion at of forum post and either I'm doing something wrong or no luck there
[22:09] <emma> I'm trying to follow the directions on this page: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy#Logitech_Marble_Mouse
[22:09] <Ashfire> jowi isn't there a way to like set permission a certain way to do it?
[22:10] <DigitalNinja> What are the other ubuntu channels?
[22:10] <gyaresu> emma: /etc/init.d/gdm restart should be fine though. (yep I saw that link)
[22:10] <gitfiddler> I'll try out rsync
[22:10] <gyaresu> DigitalNinja: lot's of language ones and ubuntu-offtopic
[22:10] <emma> gyaresu - In the server layout section where it USED to say "configured mouse" I put "MarbleMouse"
[22:10] <Jowi> Ashfire908: no. only root has those powers
[22:10] <DigitalNinja> gyaresu: Thanks
[22:10] <Doonz> libata-tj-<IP_ADDRESS> <-- can someone tell me if this is already in the distro?
[22:10] <stoneDJay> ubotu: after allow my system auto-update, its crashes... now Im on Live CD trying to recover my latest install;... Is it possible without reinstall everything?
[22:10] <Ashfire908> jowi :(
[22:11] <larson9999> Derek_, lol.  my son asked me earlier, "how do i change useragent in firefox?"  guess he figured it out.  works fine not that i reset it.
[22:11] <emma> is that what it (the instructions page) means when it says, "Make sure that you have "MarbleMouse" under the server layout section as well."
[22:11] <gyaresu> emma: Yep becuase you that's what you've called that mouse "InputDevice". You could call it 'bob' as long as they were the same.
[22:11] <Ashfire908> does cp change owner and group to the current user?
[22:11] <Jowi> Ashfire908: otherwise it would be easy to fake a file with strange tax numbers on a file owned by "hatedenemyatwork" :)
[22:12] <emma> okay.. that could explain things.. because the first time I tried this, I did not change anything in the server layout section. And that is what led to unpleasantness.
[22:12] <Jeah> Hey everyone.  I'm getting an error installing Xubuntu Gutsy from the Alternate Install CD (sort of - I'll get into that more in a sec).   The error is happening during the "Install the base system" step and it is "Debootstrap Error: Failed to determine the codename for the release."  Does anyone know how it determines the codename for the release?  I'd be happy to tell it if it would just ask me!  :)  Anyway, the slightly longer story - t

[22:12] <pitoow> http://charlespito.wordpress.com/2008/01/06/30-sites-para-encurtar-suas-urls/
[22:12] <emma> It crashed xserver and for some reason I cannot fathom when I switched to use Windows, Windows decided it needed to 'repair' itself, and then I lost grub.
[22:12] <gyaresu> Ashfire908: You can use the option 'cp -preserve'
[22:12] <xeQter> sup?
[22:12] <emma> but i got that working again, and I'm going to try once more...
[22:13] <stoneDJay> plz folks ... help me with this simple question for ubuntu geeks like you...
[22:13] <gyaresu> emma: :) You had no mouse so x wouldn't start.
[22:13] <emma> Okay I'm going to try it ..... eeeeeek!
[22:13] <emma> see you soon (I hope!)
[22:13] <gyaresu> emma: Good luck. see you soon :)
[22:13] <Ashfire908> gyaresu, i don't want it to stay the same :)
[22:13] <B-rabbit> i downloaded a mouse theme (Grounation is the name of the theme) i extracted it...but there was no readme file :( so i don't know which directory to put the theme in ?
[22:14] <B-rabbit> any ideas?
[22:14] <Derek_> bye larson9999
[22:15]  * B-rabbit waiting for a reply
[22:15] <Je|2eS_X> lol
[22:15] <Je|2eS_X> Hi All ;>
[22:16] <Doonz> can someone tell me if libata-tj-<IP_ADDRESS> is included in the 7.10 ubuntu disk?
[22:17] <B-rabbit> does any one know were the mouse them directory is?
[22:17] <B-rabbit> i mean theme
[22:17] <toni_> B-rabbit,  use the theme manager
[22:17] <vame> Hi! I installed the nvidia drivers by their sh script. now x won't start, says something about incompatible kernel drivers.
[22:17] <toni_> B-rabbit,  you can add from there
[22:18] <vame> I'm in bitchx on console now, I guess I should have followed some ubuntu-specific instruction to install/update my driver :(
[22:18] <jebblue> B-rabbit in Nautilus, you can drag the theme archive onto the Theme Manager (if I recall correctly)
[22:18] <stoneDJay> ubotu: after allow my system auto-update, its crashes... now Im on Live CD trying to recover my latest install;... Is it possible without install from scratch?
[22:18] <gitfiddler> jebblue, thanks for help. This problem's more involved than I expected, so i'll have to wrap it up some other time. cheers!
[22:18] <Otacon22> there is a good speech recognition program under linux?
[22:19] <emma> gyaresu,  it works!
[22:19] <gyaresu> emma: Indeed :)
[22:19] <jebblue> gitfiddler ok good luck!
[22:19] <emma> *hugs* thank you so much!
[22:19] <kkuhl> When installing mac4lin 0.4 how do I find the icon themes... seems missing???
[22:19] <gyaresu> emma: Now for the next problem ;)
[22:19] <emma> lo
[22:19] <emma> lol
[22:20] <vame> emma: is this really hehe :) ?
[22:21] <gyaresu> emma: If you need to do xorg stuff again you might find irssi (command line irc client) from within 'screen' (multiple terminal application) useful. It's what I'm using now.
[22:22] <FrostRat> emma: success?  fantastic!   :D
[22:22] <B-rabbit> jebblue, toni_ : i downloaded a theme for my mouse pointer, do u guyz have any ideas how i can apply the changes to my mouse
[22:22] <vame> anyone know what steps are neccessary to update/install the nvidia drivers? I had the drivers that came with ubuntu working. after updating with the drivers from nvidias page using th sh script, it complains about missmatch in kernel drivers.
[22:23] <toni_> B-rabbit,  ihave no idea... maybe is some xorgstuff...
[22:23] <Jowi> !nvidia | vame
[22:23] <emma> FrostRat - True, I understand a little bit about xorg.conf now and how to fix it when it's broken :D
[22:23] <ubotu> vame: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[22:23] <toni_> emma,  this is good
[22:23] <vame> ubotu thanks. I'll try to lynx into it :)
[22:24] <toni_> there are ubuntu servers for enemy territories?
[22:24] <Jeah> Does anyone know anything about how debootstrap works?
[22:24] <toni_> ubotu, !games | toni_
[22:25] <debatem1> hola all, quick question: I would like a mechanism to securely call a small handful of scripts contained in a chroot on my server, but do not want to allow any other actions to be performed and would really like to keep my chroot small and clean. any suggestions?
[22:25] <FullMon-T> ikonia: What does this script do? sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/Hpoop -o force

[22:25] <fodeubuntu> Hello folks... Im on Live CD because my previous system installed had some problems after an update... My question is... Is there some way to recover my previous ubuntu structure, without format from live cd?
[22:25] <Jowi> vame: I just noticed something quite useful. using screen, open weechat with urlgrab plugin in the console, I can open urls just like I can in X.
[22:25] <sigra> Guys I installed cedega but when i go launch the application it freezes my computer then never launches.  So i uninstalled it with synaptic but when i go to reinstall it..it says its still there and to reinstall option..how can I get rid of it totally to reinstall
[22:25] <Jeah> debatem1: do you know how it "determines the codename for the release" when installing?
[22:26] <jebblue> B-rabbit try Preferences | Appearance | Theme | Customize... | Pointer
[22:26] <jebblue> B-rabbit on 7.10
[22:26] <Jeah> debatem1: I'm getting an error while doing a semi-crazy install and I don't know how to begin to fix it
[22:26] <toni_> Jeah, shoot
[22:26] <jebblue> B-rabbit does the pointer you downloaded show up there?
[22:27] <debatem1> jeah: i have no idea. let me ask someone real quick
[22:27] <FullMon-T> What does this command do exactly? sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/Hpoop -o force
[22:27] <Jowi> sigra: try with "apt-get remove --purge packagename" (you might need to reinstall it first). btw, wine is quite good these days (running max payne and halflife)
[22:28] <Cpudan80> FullMon-T: Mounts an ntfs-3g filesystem at sda1 as /media/Hpoop and forces it to do it right then
[22:29] <_marianne_> hiya, i *was* going to ask for some help but i think i've fixed the problem hehe...maybe anyway...i'll stick around til i'm sure
[22:29] <tinman47> Does Garry's Mod 9 work for Half Life 1?
[22:29] <stroyan> Doonz:  Looking at linux-source-2.6.22 vs. libata-tj-stable/libata-tj-<IP_ADDRESS>-20070808.tar.bz2 I would say ubuntu does not include those patches.
[22:29] <debatem1> jeah: sorry, no luck there. I'm seeing on google that there may be a conflict between debian and ubuntu package selection? http://kitenet.net/~joey/blog/entry/re:_debootstrap/
[22:29] <Jeah> debatem1: Error during an install from a Xubuntu Gutsy alt install disc image is "[!!] Install the base system - Debootstrap Error: Failed to determine the codename for the release."  It's kind of a long story, but I'm installing from a partion on the hard drive to which I dd'd the iso.  I think that's probably related to the error, but I don't know what to do about it.
