[02:49] <crasher5> ok I will state my problem again hoping to get a solution, thank you: I was trying to remove mysql and to do so I removed /etc/mysql as well. Now i tried to reinstall the package using apt-get (I already have the necessary files downloaded), however, i get an error that i cannot start mysqld service once it stops (a part of the installation process) it says that /etc/mysql/my.cnf doesn't exist and crashes my installation... what can i do besides reinstal
[02:49] <Lex`> daj0ker: Actually it was already set to "vesa"
[02:49] <Hadron> anyone had any trouble with the latest azureus getting slower and slower and then downloading nothing at all?+
[02:49] <daj0ker> Lex`: well that's a bummer :-P
[02:49] <Lex`> daj0ker: "Generic Video Card", "vsea", "PCI:1:0:0"
[02:49] <Lex`> err vesa
[02:50] <Chains> apt-get remove purge mysql first
[02:50] <reizend> Hadron:is your isp comcast
[02:50] <martalli> Hadron: I tired of Azureus trying to update itself and just switched to ktorrent.  Ktorrent is great
[02:50] <PriceChild> crasher5, i'd suggest apt-get remove --purge'ing it.... an then reinstalling... to ensure everything's there including fresh configuration files. (This will remove all old config files)
[02:50] <Hadron> crasher5: you have to reinstall. You removed your /etc/mysql ...
[02:50] <daj0ker> Lex`: check in private chat, it'll be easier to talk it out
[02:50] <radioaktivstorm> martalli, im actually trying to filter stuff from one folder to another, I have mailing list stuff that pollutes the inbox and I don't need to see these regularly... but I tried using lots of different methods and couldn't get kmail or evoution to filter unless I explicity selected the message and applied the filter
[02:50] <Chains> crasher5 go get a copy of my.cnf and place it in the dir
[02:50] <Hadron> (reinstall all of mysql obviously)
[02:50] <Chains> and see if it solves your problem
[02:50] <Lex`> umm
[02:50] <Hadron> reizend: german crowd
[02:50] <Hadron> I'll try ktorrent then.
[02:51] <Lex`> daj0ker: I need to register my nick first
[02:51] <reizend> reizend: ah gotcha
[02:51] <crasher5> will try all of it and be back, thank you everyone
[02:51] <daj0ker> Lex`: i don't think so...
[02:51] <martalli> radioaktivstorm: OIC what you are saying.  Actually, I found it easier to create rules based on clicking on the message itself in kmail.  You can create a rule based on mailing list which worked great
[02:51] <scottDkoDer> Lex`: I am superman
[02:52] <Lex`> scottDkoDer: Great.  Everything was up and running
[02:52] <martalli> If apt-get and aptitude offer different solutions for upgrading gutsy, should I just go with apt-get?
[02:52] <PriceChild> martalli, gutsy in #ubuntu+1
[02:52] <scottDkoDer> Lex`: Sorry, I didnt finish telling you what to do
[02:52] <orudie> i have installed my nVidia driver using envy, and then i have uninstalled it, which caused my X to have a fatal error, now that i finally got into X window, i'm trying to install the restricted nVidia driver, after a successfull installation of restricted nvidia driver, i restart ubuntu and X still not working, i have to use a dpkg-reconfigure .... to get back into X, is there a way to fix that?
[02:53] <scottDkoDer> Lex`: Ok, ready?
[02:53] <Lex`> scottDkoDer: Yep
[02:53] <jellymaster> I'm getting an error when trying to install software/update it says Software index is broken and to use the command sudo apt-get install -f but when I run it it says dpkg was interrupted you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem
[02:53] <davidthedrake> orudie, Have you tried to manually install the drivers instead of using Envy?
[02:53] <martalli> PriceChild: woops - I was in the wrong tab lol.  Sorry about all the kmail suggestions in #ubuntu =)
[02:53] <KondeDrakul> orudie ,i use automatix to install the nvidia driver
[02:54] <PriceChild> !automatix | KondeDrakul orudie
[02:54] <ubot3> KondeDrakul orudie: Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.  When it fails and breaks systems, we don't provide support for it.  A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[02:54] <Chains> jellymaster what happens when you type dpkg --configure -a
[02:54] <intelikey> anyone here good with sound issues ?    care to help me findo out why sound is inaudable  ?
[02:54] <reizend> PriceChild you always beat me to it by a few seconds
[02:54] <davidthedrake> orudie, Envy and Automatix are great tools that offer shortcuts to the process of installing your drivers. However, you should consider following a guide that shows you the steps manually. That way, when things break, you can go back to the individual step and troubleshoot from there.
[02:54] <KondeDrakul> orudie, you have s backup of xorg.conf?
[02:55] <orudie> davidthedrake, anything i try now gets me back into black and white, no X
[02:55] <scottDkoDer> Lex`: Ok, after logging in, do 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf' and then replace "ati" with "vesa" under the Device section. then do 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart' to start gnome
[02:55] <davidthedrake> orudie, what KondeDrakul said: do you have a backup of your xorg.conf?
[02:55] <Mr56k> Got a new Gateway notebook and my sound or my wifi don't work... Any chance when Gutsy comes out it might work ?
[02:55] <kersinc07> #ubuntu-es
[02:55] <jellymaster> Chains: before it was returning a non valid function error but now it seems to be doing something
[02:56] <davidthedrake> Mr56k, that'd be hard to know without knowing the specs of the hardware
[02:56] <blazemonger> when i first reinstalled i noticed that it says cannot find resume image
[02:56] <Lex`> scottDkoDer: My device setting was already set to "vesa" I checked it out already. But haven't tried the gnome thing
[02:56] <blazemonger> WTF is that
[02:56] <scottDkoDer> Lex`: After logging in to gnome, do 'sudo aptitude install xchat' from your terminal to get into xchat
[02:56] <davidthedrake> Mr56k, have you troubleshot the devices that aren't working?
[02:56] <KondeDrakul> is good advice make backup from xorg.conf
[02:56] <pikohn> Still?
[02:56] <scottDkoDer> Lex`: Great, try that then
[02:56] <intelikey> i'll go ahead and say, "no it's not muted, and yes all controls are at 100%   and if i listen very very carefully while a sound file plays i can very faintly hear some sounds almost undetectably quiet."       anyone ?
[02:56] <jellymaster> Chains: it says setting up java-common,libltdl3,odbcinstldebian1,unixodbc
[02:56] <bigcx2> join #pygtk
[02:56] <pikohn> Me a people like me
[02:56] <Roge> what do i need to do after installing a new cd drive ?
[02:56] <orudie> davidthedrake, after my nVidia drivers were broken, someone helped me out and told me to type this at login: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical xserver-xorg" followed by " sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" which got me back into X, what can i do at this point to get a decent nVidia driver ?
[02:56] <Chains> jeyllmaster: once that finishes you should beable to type apt-get install -f to remove the broken packages
[02:57] <pikohn> I'll die knowing you've waisted your time
[02:57] <Mr56k> Its a Gateway notebook. Here is a link to BB Website http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?type=product&tab=7&id=1181347957887&skuId=8408092 I got on sale for $550.
[02:57] <pikohn> if that is what you are trying to accomplish
[02:57] <Roge> actually, how do i configure the new cd drive so it works right
[02:57] <Mr56k> Ubuntu detects correct widescreen resolution but sound and my wifi wont work
[02:57] <Mr56k> really stinks. I really like the laptop too.
[02:57] <blazemonger> why is it that when i boot it says no resume image

[03:01] <crasher5> please i need help on private plz
[03:01] <crasher5> anyone
[03:01] <Chains> to install nvidia drivers, type howto nvidia drivers ubuntu into google
[03:01] <scottDkoDer> blazemonger: What is your problem?
[03:01] <peniwize> I've got an ISO is need to burn and have never done it in Linux before.  What is the best program for this?
[03:01] <jellymaster> Chains: space did nothing. goldsmith:a bot came in and spammed the channel so the admins closed the channel to anyone not registered to the #ubuntu channel until they got rid of the bot/anyone linked to I'm going to guess
[03:01] <Chains> and find your version of ubuntu.
[03:02] <orudie> davidthedrake, sorry i missed that, what was the thing you recommended?
[03:02] <Chains> try the enter key then jelly
[03:02] <mneptok> peniwize: right-click the .iso file
[03:02] <goldsmith> makes sence
[03:02] <scottDkoDer> blazemonger: Or better yet, what are you ultimately trying to accomplish
[03:02] <goldsmith> why was there a netsplit before it happened though
[03:02] <jellymaster> Chains been trying both for a while and I have a feeling if i close this it'll just need to be restarted again >.<
[03:02] <intelikey>      expert in the house ?    sound is inaudable.    i'll go ahead and say, "no it's not muted, and yes all controls are at 100%   and if i listen very very carefully while a sound file plays i can very faintly hear some sounds almost undetectably quiet."       anyone ?
[03:03] <davidthedrake> orudie, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ is the best that I have found. I used their guide for Nvidia dapper installation and followed the manual procedures there.
[03:03] <Chains> what are you trying to install exactly?
[03:03] <Mr56k> Anyone no why the sound and wifi wont work on this laptop under linux  http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?type=product&tab=7&id=1181347957887&skuId=8408092
[03:03] <davidthedrake> orudie, Leaving work now though. I would suggest starting there. I'll be on later.
[03:03] <kitche> goldsmith: it wasn't a netsplit
[03:03] <nosrednaekim> intelikey: is it a laptop with a hardware volume control?
[03:03] <underdog5004> Mr56k, maybe because those cards haven't been reverse engineered for linux and their respective owners won't make a driver?
[03:03] <underdog5004> just a though
[03:03] <Chains> mr56k I suspect because the drivers for both are not installed.
[03:03] <intelikey> nosrednaekim nope.
[03:03] <reizend> inelikey: have you tried any other device if it exists? double click the volume icon, then file -> change device
[03:04] <reizend> intelikey: mine defaulted to my modem's sound
[03:04] <blazemonger> who can help me with ubuntu?
[03:04] <intelikey> reizend only one sound device
[03:04] <orudie> my nVidia drivers are crashed, and installing the restricted driver is still not getting me into X
[03:04] <Mr56k> i have tried... Also people walked me through ndis wrapper and still wouldnt work
[03:04] <blazemonger> please someone i will PAY for support=
[03:04] <Chains> wireless cards are often tricky to install on linux if the hardware manufacturer does not support your operating system.
[03:04] <peniwize> mneptok: thanks
[03:04] <Chains> Look into ndis wrapper.
[03:04] <scottDkoDer> blazemonger: What are you ultimately trying to accomplish?
[03:04] <nosrednaekim> blazemonger: whats the problem?
[03:04] <blazemonger> im trying to get my sPentium 4 d865perl mobo with almost a gig of memory to function right iwht ubuntu
[03:04] <reizend> intelikey:alright thats my only guess unless there is a volume wheel on the machine, sorry
[03:04] <Dralid> \quit
[03:05] <Chains> The best way to get paid ubuntu support is from the canonical website.
[03:05] <blazemonger> its like everything is *SLOW*
[03:05] <blazemonger> even in Xubuntu and no matter what distro i use..where can i find low cost tech support
[03:05] <intelikey> reizend k thanks for the stab
[03:05] <blazemonger> where i can dial a phone number and ask a tech question
[03:05] <benkong2> hey all is there a way to pass 1280x800 resolution to the feisty install CD? my intel G965 only gets detected at 1024x768?
[03:05] <Roge> if it wasnt a netsplit then what was it ?
[03:05] <blazemonger> it seems like linux will never get it right
[03:05] <intelikey> anyone else ?
[03:05] <MTecknology> I installed Ubuntu 7.04 on my server with the x64 alternative cd. I set up a partition just for vm's (/var/vm) When I try to start a freshly created VM I get this error 'http://download3.vmware.com/software/vmplayer/Browser-Appliance-1.0.0.zip'

[03:07] <orudie> can anyone suggest how to fix my nVidia drivers?
[03:07] <nosrednaekim> benkong2: not sure if it requires a restart (in which case it won't work)
[03:07] <reizend> intelikey: under the volume manager did you go to edit -> preferences and check all the unchecked options and check those volumes as well
[03:07] <FIRESIDE91> Maban: Does grub load Ubuntu?

[03:09] <Maban> how can i get my original mbr back?
[03:10] <FIRESIDE91> Maban: You can't fix it without reinstalling Ubuntu or having an XP install CD
[03:10] <orudie> Someone please help,
[03:10] <blazemonger> its like no matter what i try i cant get things working right to where I can *USE* a comptuer for a task
[03:10] <Creed> Anyone know of a clone of Hamachi? Or another such thing to "tunnel" game traffic from one LAN to another?
[03:10] <foxray> are there things i can do to speed up gnome on ubuntu? i'm actually on a really slow P3 700mhz with 1gb of sdram and it feels really sluggish.
[03:10] <nosrednaekim> Maban: #windows for recovering your MBR
[03:10] <orudie> My nVidia drivers are broken, and i cant get it fixed
[03:10] <Maban> surely there is some program somewhere out there
[03:10] <blazemonger> if Windows XP wasn't overpriced and i actually got tech support for it i would be okay
[03:10] <T3hMikey> I don't have any sound at all. I've tried fiddling with the sound settings some, but I've had no luck so far. I've got a Sound Blaster Audigy sound card
[03:10] <nosrednaekim> foxray: you coul try using XFCE instead of gnome
[03:10] <T3hMikey> any ideas what the problem might be?
[03:10] <FIRESIDE91> Maban: Sadly, there isn't, the windows MBR cannot be restored without a XP install CD
[03:10] <scottDkoDer> blazemonger: Will you talk to me in your private message please?
[03:10] <blazemonger> why is ubunto slosw now days? like ive seen ubuntu run smooth even on a p2
[03:11] <blazemonger> yes
[03:11] <foxray> nosrednaekim: i actually like the gnome interface, i have nothing against it, just wondering if i can speed it up just a tad
[03:11] <intelikey> Maban an ms boot disk image you can dl should be easy to find on the web.
[03:11] <FIRESIDE91> blzemonger: Do you have a lot of extra programs installed?
[03:11] <blazemonger> fresh install
[03:11] <ubuntu_> how do i fix my fstab
[03:11] <Maban> can i install ubuntu and restore it?
[03:11] <blazemonger> it too,k 3 minutes to load
[03:11] <nosrednaekim> foxray: the xfce interface is almost exactly the same, and uses lessprocessing power.
[03:11] <blazemonger> just to *load*
[03:11] <Maban> i want this drive to be an ntfs
[03:11] <blazemonger> man i wish i knew some geeks in my area
[03:12] <Maban> wondows wont recognize ext3
[03:12] <scottDkoDer> blazemonger: Is it feisty you are using?
[03:12] <blazemonger> who could just help set up a linux ystem..i know more about BSD
[03:12] <blazemonger> yes it's feisty
[03:12] <daj0ker> Maban: make a partition for fat32
[03:12] <FIRESIDE91> Maban: You cannot restore your XP MBR, however you can get GRUB running on a seperate /boot partition with a size of 20MB and it will run without the rest
[03:12] <blazemonger> i thought about gnewsense
[03:12] <scottDkoDer> blazemonger: PM me and I will help you
[03:12] <intelikey> Maban installing "grub" (ubuntu's default bootloader) should get you to a point you can boot what ever is installed.
[03:12] <blazemonger> or something this UUID in /etc/fstab is terrible
[03:12] <blazemonger> i did PM
[03:12] <ubuntu_> i reformatted my /home and i cant boot now

[03:12] <FIRESIDE91> Maban: Have 2 partitions
[03:13] <FIRESIDE91> Maban: one for grub, then the rest can be NTFS
[03:13] <Maban> doesnt the whole drive have to be one gormat?
[03:13] <FIRESIDE91> No
[03:13] <Maban> haha gormat
[03:13] <Kousotu> Maban
[03:13] <blazemonger> like i cant find a way to get debian sid  ..debian stable ran good but the packages were way date4d
[03:13] <intelikey> Maban grub can live in M$ splace
[03:13] <blazemonger> and i want to use ubuntu studio
[03:13] <FIRESIDE91> Maban: That's how dualbooting works
[03:13] <intelikey> space
[03:13] <SunsparcSolaris> Chains, I didnt see it. It left my buffer
[03:13] <nosrednaekim> foxray: ah ok :) never know who the experiences ones are in here. No I don't know of any way to speed GNOME up. I'm mostly a KDE user myself
[03:13] <luite_> I want to buy a new notebook, and the models I like either have the integrated intel x3100 chip, or a geforce 8400m/8600m. which one would you recommend for ubuntu with beryl desktop effects?
[03:13] <Chains> Edit the file sources.list in /etc/apt/
[03:13] <FIRESIDE91> Maban: Your drive is divided up and you have seperate windows and linux partitions
[03:13] <martalli> blazemonger: If you want to run debian sid, try sidux
[03:13] <Maban> i have two physical drives and two parts on the c/d drive
[03:13] <daj0ker> luite_: not the integrated one
[03:14] <Kousotu> Maban: if you're going to dualboot Win and ubuntu, install XP and save GBs for ubuntu
[03:14] <luite_> daj0ker: too slow?
[03:14] <boabsta> ubuntu_, did you format it with a different FS than before? if so you'll just need to update your /etc/fstab
[03:14] <blazemonger> cuz ubuntu installs al this stuff that i dont even need
[03:14] <nosrednaekim> luite_: both aren't supported real wellby fiesty... but both are supported well by gutsy
[03:14] <martalli> debian sid is a whole lot more stable than typical unstable arms, like mandriva cooker
[03:14] <ubuntu_> it is a diffrenr fs
[03:14] <blazemonger> and not only that the kernel is just sketchy
[03:14] <FIRESIDE91> KousotuL You haven't heard the whole situation
[03:14] <boabsta> luite_, geforce - nvidia all the way :)
[03:14] <SunsparcSolaris> Chains, what do I need to edit it to?
[03:14] <Chains> I am not exactly certain what the syntax is for pulling packages from your drive is, since I always get all my packages off the internet.
[03:14] <nosrednaekim> ubuntu_: different partition?
[03:14] <Kousotu> Maban: if you have 2 druves, use the big one for Win and the smaller one for Ubuntu
[03:14] <blazemonger> like when i do sudo hdparm -d1 /dev/sda i get a error
[03:14] <Kousotu> lol
[03:14] <Chains> But if you look at the file it should show you what its using to grab from your dvd drive
[03:14] <ubuntu_> same partitin
[03:14] <blazemonger> these new drivers are the worst
[03:14] <dancingmonkey> If this DNS server issue is resolved on the FAQ site, please give me an IP to the site so I can read it.
[03:15] <Roge> i have a similar drive question. i replaced my drive, and now i cant burn cd's
[03:15] <Maban> i dont want ubuntu at all to be honest
[03:15] <FIRESIDE91> Kousotu: He is trying to REMOVE ubuntu, and restore his XP MBR
[03:15] <luite_> nosrednaekim: that's not a problem, it will probably take a few weeks before it's delivered, and I can live with running an experimental distro for a while
[03:15] <daj0ker> luite_: what everyone said so far holds true, and I am also biased towards nvidia myself
[03:15] <Chains> that coupled with a google search will have the answer.
[03:15] <martalli> blazemonger: Whoah, I never thought ubuntu really installed a whole lot of stuff, it wasn't even coming with gcc with recent releases
[03:15] <intelikey> Chains dpkg -i </path/to/full-package.name.deb>
[03:15] <Kousotu> FIRESIDE91: ah..
[03:15] <boabsta> ubuntu_, edit /etc/fstab to update with the new FS
[03:15] <FIRESIDE91> Maban: Please PM me
[03:15] <blazemonger> what do i do?
[03:15] <orudie> i have ubuntu 7.04, had nvidia drivers installed with envy, then i was advised that envy method is not the best once, since i couldn't get compiz fusion running, so i uninstalled nvidia drivers using envy, and after restarting ubuntu - X returned a fatal error, so i did "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical xserver-xorg" followed by "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[03:15] <Chains> The part I don't know is what the path to his cdrw drive is
[03:15] <Kousotu> Maban: you have an XP disc?
[03:15] <radioaktivstorm> can anyone give me a step-by-step on getting evolution filters to function... I've put one in place and it doesn't do anything upon receiving messages that VERY CLEARLY fall within the filter rules.
[03:15] <nosrednaekim> luite_: ok... well I would personally get the X3100 but I'm not a big gamer..
[03:15] <scottDkoDer> blazemonger: If you want help, you need to calm down, be patient, and ask one question at a time
[03:15] <ubuntu_> what do i change in fstab
[03:15] <luite_> boabsta: ok, so the binary driver is not really a prbolem right?
[03:16] <Maban> yes but it doesnt recognize my motherboard
[03:16] <blazemonger> ScottDkoder iv'e spent 4 months trying to find solutions but no
[03:16] <Maban> its  an oem disk
[03:16] <Kousotu> the Win XP disc?
[03:16] <Kousotu> lol
[03:16] <Kousotu> oh.
[03:16] <orudie> after doing all that i can't get 3d to work, still getting that fatal error every time i restart
[03:16] <Chains> I would simply comment references to the dvd drive in the file and have it grab all your packages online
[03:16] <Kousotu> ah..
[03:16] <nosrednaekim> luite_: did you check out the ubuntu dells?
[03:16] <blazemonger> my laptop thats a p3 blows circles around this p4 2.4ghz
[03:16] <luite_> nosrednaekim: me neither :) I'd just like to be able to play with the desktop effects
[03:16] <Kousotu> whayt OEM?
[03:16] <nosrednaekim> luite_: the X3100 can do that just fine
[03:16] <ubuntu_> what do i change in fstab
[03:16] <blazemonger> where can i buy a no name brand system that cfomes with ubuntu
[03:16] <luite_> nosrednaekim: I live in europe, so I'd probably have to pay the microsoft (or mac) tax
[03:16] <blazemonger> or a working linux
[03:16] <Maban> its a sony computer
[03:16] <orudie> someone please...... i've been on this forever
[03:16] <foxray> how hard would it be to upgrade from ubuntu edgy to ubuntu feisty?
[03:16] <Maban> well was
[03:16] <Kousotu> laptop?
[03:16] <boabsta> luite_, just going by my own experience and what i've seen from others out of ATI, Intel and nvidia - nvidia seems to be the most hassle free, not getting into that kind of debate thanks ;)
[03:16] <scottDkoDer> blazemonger: I understand you are frustrated, but lets take this one step at a time
[03:16] <martalli> luite_: nosrednaekim: My son has a ubuntu dell and it works great
[03:17] <Malachi> blazemonger: If you don't want Dell, try System76
[03:17] <daj0ker> orudie: did you install the nvidia drivers from www.nvidia.com?
[03:17] <Malachi> blazemnonger: What's your problem?
[03:17] <blazemonger> speed issues
[03:17] <blazemonger> dma mode
[03:17] <blazemonger> drive cache stuff
[03:17] <blazemonger> slow access
[03:17] <reizend> foxray: when I upgraded the update manager had a button to do so
[03:17] <orudie> daj0ker, the restricted drivers are not helping anymore
[03:17] <Malachi> Ah.
[03:17] <blazemonger> everything is sluggish and its a fresh install
[03:17] <blazemonger> and im on a pentium 4 2.4ghz which should be enough to run linux
[03:17] <luite_> boabsta: ehhe, I don't want to start a flamewar, just wanted to make sure that I don't buy something with big problems. I have had an ATI that wasn't supported for a long time because I forgot to check :)
[03:17] <foxray> reizend: was it hard to upgrade? did some programs stop working?
[03:17] <mneptok> blazemonger: buggy controller driver?
[03:17] <orudie> daj0ker, if i restart now, it will still get me into X fatal error
[03:18] <orudie> daj0ker, if you know how to fix that, please help me
[03:18] <blazemonger> yes
[03:18] <blazemonger> i have a SATA mobo
[03:18] <blazemonger> d865perl
[03:18] <blazemonger> by intel
[03:18] <nosrednaekim> luite_: I'm killing myself for getting this ATI... I know what you mean.
[03:18] <reizend> foxray:I had no problem, but I cannot garrantee it
[03:18] <blazemonger> i thought about flashing the bios
[03:18] <Roge>  i replaced my drive, and now i cant burn cd's how do i configure a new cd drive ?
[03:18] <Jack_Sparrow> !enter > blazemonger
[03:18] <blazemonger> but this is the first time ive built a PC
[03:18] <blazemonger> im new to PC's but not Amigas..
[03:18] <KvaZi> how can I make it so I don't have to get into desktop mode from the LiveCD and skip straight to installation??? Seeing how things are, installing ubuntu on a 500mhz k6-2 with 192mb ram and a 16x cd drive is NOT my idea of fun.
[03:18] <daj0ker> orudie: you probably need to edit your xorg.conf file again, and change the driver to "vesa"
[03:18] <daj0ker> load up the GUI, then follow the install instructions on nvidia's site
[03:18] <orudie> daj0ker, how do i edit my xorg.conf file?
[03:18] <kitche> Roge, though your bios , if your bios don't see it then the OS won't either
[03:19] <orudie> daj0ker, i'm sorry i'm new
[03:19] <boabsta> KvaZi, use the alternative CD
[03:19] <blazemonger> so why is it that feisty didnt create the /etc/mkinit direcotyr
[03:19] <Roge> i believe the bios see's it
[03:19] <blazemonger> it says when i boot 'can not find resume image doing standard boot'
[03:19] <reizend> KvaZi: there is another cd for that, look in the download section of ubuntu's website under alternate cd
[03:19] <daj0ker> orudie: reboot your computer, check the "recover mode" (should be 2nd option) in grub, when you get to the command line
[03:19] <scottDkoDer> orudie: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:19] <daj0ker> do what scott just said
[03:19] <allbert> !xml
[03:19] <ubot3> Factoid xml not found
[03:19] <KvaZi> damn it..... 1mbps is not gonna cut it.... oh well. Fun afternoon. Thanks :P

[03:20] <orudie> scottDkoDer, thanx, i'm in the xorg.conf now? what do i do there? do you know how to fix this?
[03:20] <ConstyXIV> what's ubot3?  an upgrade of ubotu?
[03:20] <nosrednaekim> nah.. he's just l33ter
[03:20] <daj0ker> orudie: didn't realise you were in ubuntu at the moment
[03:20] <scottDkoDer> orudie: Can I PM you?
[03:21] <Kousotu> !help
[03:21] <ubot3> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[03:21] <orudie> scottDkoDer, please
[03:21] <KvaZi> what's a waggamuffin? O.o
[03:21] <reizend> ConstyXIV: ubotu was down so they turned on ubot3
[03:21] <blazemonger> folkis: i have a IDE drive but the motherboard detects it as PATA
[03:21] <orudie> daj0ker, i'm in x, but i cant get 3d drivers to work
[03:21] <nosrednaekim> blazemonger: thats the same thing
[03:21] <KvaZi> ide = pata [i think]
[03:21] <KvaZi> yaay i know stuff.
[03:21] <nosrednaekim> :)
[03:21] <scottDkoDer> orudie: Do you have your nick registered?
[03:22] <blazemonger> so what do i do?
[03:22] <blazemonger> do i buy a new computer?
[03:22] <blazemonger> that works out of the box?
[03:22] <scottDkoDer> orudie: What is your card?
[03:22] <reizend> KvaZi: i think it could be just ata also
[03:22] <nosrednaekim> blazemonger: if you want to.
[03:22] <orudie> scottDkoDer, -NickServ- Password accepted - you are now recognized
[03:22] <blazemonger> or do i try to build my own system again
[03:22] <blazemonger> i dont know which options
[03:22] <orudie> scottDkoDer, nVidia 7600 GT
[03:22] <blazemonger> im new to PC'sd remember but NOT to computers and unix
[03:22] <KvaZi> so ata = pata = ide ?
[03:22] <scottDkoDer> orudie: Check your private message?
[03:22] <blazemonger> i dont know
[03:22] <KvaZi> sata = esata = sata2?
[03:22] <T3hMikey> I can't get any sound at all, despite having messed with volume controls already. I just installed the latest version of Ubuntu. Anyone have any idea what the problem might be?
[03:22] <orudie> scottDkoDer, not showing anything lol
[03:22] <blazemonger> what is pata /sata all t5his stuf
[03:22] <nosrednaekim> KvaZi: pretty much/
[03:23] <scottDkoDer> orudie: PM me
[03:23] <Lex`> daj0ker & scottDkoDer, xchat is working, so is the gui
[03:23] <blazemonger> why can't PC's have a STANDARD like the Amiga's did
[03:23] <kersinc07> #ubuntu-es
[03:23] <orudie> scottDkoDer, i just did
[03:23] <FIRESIDE91> blzemonger: Because PC's are PC's
[03:23] <scottDkoDer> Lex`: talking from ubuntu?
[03:23] <nosrednaekim> blazemonger: are you just a troll?
[03:23] <kersinc07> #ubuntu-es
[03:23] <mneptok> blazemonger: notice that when one manufacturer fails the platform doesn't die.
[03:23] <dancingmonkey> Hello, all, I have lost DNS. I tried editing my DNS server through 'Network Settings' in GNOME and it fails. I try in a command line and resolv.conf is read-only (as root) I rebooted to single user mode and it said it was read-only I tried :w! and chmod 777. What should I try?
[03:23] <KvaZi> nosrednaekim: took the words out of mah mouth.
[03:23] <orudie> scottDkoDer, join me in #orudie
[03:23] <Jack_Sparrow> blazemonger: Because sticking to a specific standard gets outdated... much like the Amiga
[03:24] <Kousotu> kersinc07: escribe /join #ubuntu-es para entrar el canal
[03:24] <scottDkoDer> orudie: Ok
[03:24] <pete83> blazemonger: there is a standard for everywhere except Southaven
[03:24] <blazemonger> nope im not
[03:24] <Kousotu> kersinc07: escribe /join #ubuntu-es para entrar el canal
[03:24] <Kousotu> lol
[03:24] <blazemonger> im a frusgtrated ex-amiga user migrating to PC land and i dont trust windows
[03:24] <kersinc07> #ubuntu-es
[03:25] <blazemonger> i want to develop software NOT spend years configuring things
[03:25] <FIRESIDE91> blazemonger: You are just now leaving that amiga?
[03:25] <blazemonger> for every tiny driver
[03:25] <blazemonger> yes
[03:25] <blazemonger> just now
[03:25] <FIRESIDE91> LMFAO
[03:25] <nosrednaekim> hahahahha
[03:25] <blazemonger> i remember when PC's were somewhat simple
[03:25] <Scunizi> dancingmonkey, to edit a file that is owned by root preface your command with sudo.  Like "sudo gedit resolv.conf".   Any idea why? My first impulse is to remove the square brackets from line 8, but I really don't know how autoreconf works
[03:25] <blazemonger> well thats IF linux will work
[03:25] <gordonjcp> blazemonger: linux *always* works
[03:25] <blazemonger> if i can find a distribution that will run like it should on my setup
[03:25] <T3hMikey> I can't get any sound at all, despite having messed with volume controls already. I just installed the latest version of Ubuntu. Anyone have any idea what the problem might be?
[03:25] <blazemonger> i have a d865perl motherboard and  the agp 3.0 card i have gets put in legacy mode
[03:25] <gordonjcp> blazemonger: random silly bits of hardware that don't meet the accepted standards might not work
[03:26] <Don9307> Anyone know where I can find a linux driver for a Logitech Quickcam Express webcam?  I've already looked on the OEM website.
[03:26] <dancingmonkey> Scunizi: I sudo su | (root) vi /etc/resolv.conf | warning you are accessing read-only file
[03:26] <pete83> gordonjcp: not if your hard drive is burnt
[03:26] <El> Hey all, quick question: can I format partitions within Ubuntu, and if so, how?
[03:26] <dancingmonkey> Scunizi: I also tried chmod 777, and rm -f
[03:26] <pete83> El: get the gparted package
[03:26] <nosrednaekim> El: not ones that are mounted. but otherwise, yes. use gparted
[03:26] <Jack_Sparrow> El: gparted... install it with synaptic
[03:26] <blazemonger> and this ATAPI stuff what is it
[03:26] <apples_> all: anyone know what I have to install to watch videos on my computer with totem(dvds, i have the drive, but they won't play.) also my scanner is supported by sane but still won't run. it is a HP 3200C.
[03:27] <dancingmonkey> Nothing lets me change. edit, delete this file even as single user (root consule)

[03:33] <mneptok> blazemonger: no, you're randomly complaining about stuff that is NOT an issue for others. so stop.
[03:33] <Chains> and drivers are the fault of your hardware vendor.

[03:37] <blazemonger> single mode operation
[03:37] <Kousotu> blazemonger: your processor could read slow too
[03:37] <blazemonger> 2.4ghz slow? yeah right

[03:39] <blazemonger> ive spent too much on PC parts trying to build a desktop for the first time
[03:39] <Chains> if you happen to have one of the 2 machines things don't work well on, I recommend trying a different distrobution of ubuntu sometimes different versions run on hardware
[03:39] <Pelo> blazemonger,  I suggest a clean install and just  ... test a bit before doing anything creative t your confuration
[03:39] <silvertip257> anyone have experience installing Ubuntu on Sony Vaio models?
[03:39] <Pelo> Kousotu, well as long as it works

[03:39] <blazemonger> Chains:just why did ubuntu mess over Debian?
[03:39] <Pelo> silvertip257,  it's better to ask a specific  question
[03:40] <Kousotu> pelo: have him check his processor in ubuntu
[03:40] <blazemonger> or maybe i should just use debian stable
[03:40] <Chains> Nothing about Debian is messed over?
[03:40] <Kousotu> mine reads at over 3000

[03:51] <IndyGunFreak> blazemonger: what versin of ubuntu are you using?
[03:51] <Chains> heres how to find out which one is master blaze
[03:51] <Chains> remove one
[03:51] <Chains> and turn on your computer
[03:51] <Chains> if it doesnt start
[03:51] <wastrel> IndyGunFreak:  you're right.  the link i was using was to a specific video which wasn't working
[03:51] <Chains> that one was master

[03:52] <Kousotu> blazemonger: try live gutsy
[03:52] <toaster> Pelo: ok, thanks
[03:52] <blazemonger> the only thing i know how to do in computers is sequence midi if theres a working sequencer
[03:52] <coma> Do they include the newest kernal when ever they update it in the download for ubuntu?
[03:52] <IndyGunFreak> wastrel: yeah, it all seems to work pretty good.
[03:52] <blazemonger> like what distro out there will work with
[03:52] <blazemonger> every single distro ive tried is slow on my system
[03:52] <Project_K> hello everyone
[03:52] <blazemonger> except for gnewsense and that doesnt come with the packages ubuntu has
[03:52] <Chains> To remove a hard disk you open the case, remove two plugs, and two screws and slide it out
[03:52] <Kousotu> try gutsy
[03:52] <IndyGunFreak> blazemonger: have you tried a pure debian install?
[03:52] <Chains> dell has nifty pictures on thier website explaining the whole proceedure, it takes about 3 minutes.
[03:52] <JustAboutRealJAR> is gutsy the newest one... coming out in october?
[03:52] <blazemonger> pure debian works but the packages are so dated[
[03:52] <kitche> coma, no they don't use the very latest kernel unless of course they fixed the many bugs in it
[03:53] <m0u5e> for some reason whenever is start mozilla thunderbird, it will crash as soon as it starts updating from my pop3 mail servers
[03:53] <m0u5e> i get a segmentation core dump error
[03:53] <blazemonger> and debian doesnt keep up their testing images
[03:53] <m0u5e> anyone know why?
[03:53] <IndyGunFreak> blazemonger: well, i don't know.. maybe Mepis
[03:53] <Chains> debian etch is no longer dated,
[03:53] <blazemonger> what is mepis
[03:53] <Chains> and if debian works 6.06 lts should work as well
[03:53] <Kousotu> blazemonger: try using gutsy
[03:53] <blazemonger> debian etch is dated
[03:53] <blazemonger> copmpared to feisty
[03:53] <coma> kitche:how do you know what kernal the have in the download, like the one right now?
[03:53] <IndyGunFreak> blazemonger: debian etch is very stable.... and if you want more updated packages, all you need to do is install them.
[03:53] <Kousotu> blazemonger: I use gutsy and it works fine, Fiesty had issues
[03:53] <phenom> Etch just came out..
[03:53] <Pelo> Kousotu, please donT, recommend the alpha to someone who has problems runing the stable
[03:53] <blazemonger> how do i get them?
[03:53] <Chains> there is very little difference between feisty and etch from an end user poin t of view
[03:54] <julio14> guys  l want to know if my server is up?http://<IP_ADDRESS>/
[03:54] <kitche> coma, it tells you the version number in the package name or you can use uname -a
[03:54] <IndyGunFreak> blazemonger: well,t hat depends on what you want.
[03:54] <blazemonger> what you mean gutsy is now the current ubuntu version?
[03:54] <Kousotu> Pelo: i's not alpha, it's beta lol
[03:54] <phenom> Couple months back, considering a 2 year turnaround,, tells me etch is up to date as your going to get.
[03:54] <Kousotu> blazemonger: no, gutsy is a beta right now
[03:54] <Pelo> julio14,  put a space before the url and I'll check it out
[03:54] <kitche> julio14, no
[03:54] <blazemonger> im confused

[03:55] <Pelo> blazemonger, are you paying attention ?
[03:55] <Kousotu> blazemonger: but like I said, fiesty was giving me trouble, I triedgutsy, it's fine

[03:56] <blazemonger> so you mean ifeisty has problems? If so what is it doing being sold?
[03:56] <IndyGunFreak> blazemonger: 6.06 is stable yes, but its also quite dated, 6.06 is really for people paying for support.. fi your'e using feisty, then you'e got the most current, stable distro.
[03:56] <pucca> Kousotu how did u get compiz fusion to work in gutsy?out of the box?
[03:56] <Kousotu> pucca: sorta

[04:00] <blazemonger> they make great doorstops
[04:00] <h1st0> blazemonger: yeah just pull the power on the drive.  The power wire is the black yellow red and black cable plugged in the back of the hdd

[04:01] <Gener1c> hey ubuntu guys
[04:01] <Gener1c> my gurus
[04:01] <Pelo> Kousotu,  why do you want to do that ?
[04:01] <Gener1c> i ran linux-source kernel-package libncurses5-dev fakeroot wget bzip2
[04:01] <Gener1c> i mean
[04:01] <h1st0> apt-get them
[04:02] <Gener1c> sudo apt-get linux-source kernel-package libncurses5-dev fakeroot wget bzip2

[04:02] <Gener1c> i ran this
[04:02] <h1st0> Gener1c: k
[04:02] <Pelo> Kousotu, that answers make no sense
[04:02] <Gener1c> and it gave me the 3 revision of the .20 kernel
[04:02] <h1st0> Gener1c: what are you trying tomake your own kernel?
[04:02] <lgc> How can I know the NAME of my 7.04 CD in order to use it as a source for update in 'sources.list'?
[04:02] <Gener1c> tryed to patch it
[04:02] <Gener1c> but after i patched it
[04:02] <bkudria> can some help me set up pam-ssh?  i've followed all the directions in the README.Debian, but I'm prompted for the passphrase each time anyway.  has anyone got this working?
[04:02] <Gener1c> it recompiled fine
[04:02] <blind> I'm trying to use VirtualBox, and I've added myself to the group, however it still isn't registering. Do I have to do anything else?
[04:02] <gerro> h1st0: ok thanks its just I have this really old lc
[04:03] <deucalion_> why are the fonts on my Gutsy Gibbon so freakin small? even in firefox

[04:03] <h1st0> Gener1c: you can name it whatever you want.
[04:03] <Gener1c> no man
[04:03] <Gener1c> the source i got
[04:03] <lgc> Pelo, but I just want to use it as a primary source in my 'sources.list' file, not wipe off my actual configuration.
[04:03] <wastrel> tarvid:  what's the problem with arrow keys in gnome-terminal?
[04:03] <Gener1c> from apt-get
[04:03] <Gener1c> was 2.6.20-3
[04:04] <h1st0> Gener1c: k
[04:04] <Gener1c> and it says its the newest
[04:04] <pucca> Kousotu sorta like...almost there?lol
[04:04] <Gener1c> and i know there is a -16 source
[04:04] <h1st0> Gener1c: it probably is with out the patches.
[04:04] <Kousotu> pucca: you mean my compiz?
[04:04] <bottiger> wastrel: huh?
[04:04] <tarvid> wastrel, in vi, the arrow keys generate extraneous text
[04:04] <eshaase> how can i monitor my network traffic?

[04:04] <GamingX> hello guys, anyone know of an application to open .lit ebooks in ubuntu?
[04:04] <Pelo> lgc, it won'T , if you have the gui running ,  just put the cd in ,  sudo apt-get update and if the package is available on the cd it will take it from tehre rather then online
[04:04] <Kousotu> pm me I'm not payin attention to the chan thatwell
[04:04] <Kousotu> lol
[04:05] <gerro> h1st0: it says its a "Multisync/Multiscan" monitor type from what I've read, should that be specified in xorg.conf?
[04:05] <Pelo> GamingX,  in synaptic , search for ebooks
[04:05] <Gener1c> i only patched a module
[04:05] <Gener1c>  cat /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.20/include/config/kernel.release

[04:06] <ubot3> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[04:07] <GamingX> Pelo: Nope, irrelevant results for ebooks...
[04:07] <El_Julioso> does it matter if I download GParted in .bz2 or .gz? is the only difference the amount of compression and therefore file size?
[04:07] <Pelo> lgc,  sudo apt-get update will update the package list taking into accound that cd ,  check in synaptic in the menu under repos for  the repos list, the cd shuld be listed on the fist tab i fyou hve it
[04:07] <wastrel> tarvid:  okey dokey  that looks fine to me.  you don't have a problem :]
[04:07] <Pelo> GamingX, well,  do you know the native app for  .lit files ?
[04:07] <lgc> Pelo, oh, I see. Let me try...
[04:08] <tarvid> wastrel, I do have a problem gnome-terminal is almost unusable for remove editing of files
[04:08] <Pelo> lgc,  I work the same but from the dvd
[04:08] <wastrel> tarvid:  what vi are you using? vim?  what keyboard layout?
[04:08] <GamingX> Pelo: Yes, Microsoft Reader...
[04:08] <tarvid> wasabi, s/remove/remote/
[04:08] <wastrel> tarvid:  arrow keys work just fine in vi (vim) for me
[04:08] <Pelo> GamingX,  I suggest you google for an "microsof reader" linux alternative
[04:09] <tarvid> only when logged in w2ith ssh to a remote machine
[04:09] <Bakefy> will most scanners work with ubuntu?
[04:09] <wastrel> GamingX:  there's no way to open .lit on linux.
[04:09] <Pelo> GamingX,  or  maybe for .lit  linux
[04:09] <tarvid> in vi up-arrow generates A folled by newline
[04:09] <shaggy_> have a question.....In soundjuicer, I can rip a cd in just over a minute but it seems to only use one core in my dual core CPU. Is there a way to make it use/see both cores?
[04:09] <wastrel> GamingX:  there's a converter i've heard of but i don't use .lit so meh.
[04:09] <wastrel> GamingX:  you'll need something to convert them to an open format
[04:09] <somethingstupid> .deb
[04:09] <lgc> Pelo, what's the difference between the CD and the DVD, in terms of important software contents, in short?
[04:10] <wastrel> alternatively emulate something that does have .lit support   are there pocketpc emulators for lunix?
[04:10] <Kousotu> lgc: As far as I see, none
[04:10] <Pelo> lgc,  more packages,  I have no idea how many ,  the dvd is 4gig,  it has the alternate cd on it as well
[04:10] <tonyyarusso> lgc: the DVD has the entire main and restricted sections of the repositories.  The CD only has a select set, as deemed necessary/reasonable for installation.
[04:10] <wastrel> tarvid:  this is only on a remote system?
[04:11] <lgc> Kousotu, Pelo , tonyyarusso, thanks.
[04:11] <endo2016> question:  i recent swapped out my motherboard, cpu, and RAM and now it seems that whenever my screensaver kicks on or when i am transfering large files (>1G), my computer just freezes up.  Any ideas?
[04:11] <Pelo> GamingX,  http://senthilkumaran.wordpress.com/2006/11/16/reading-lit-files-in-gnulinux/
[04:11] <Kousotu> tonyyarusso: is there a gutsy DVD?
[04:11] <tarvid> yes only on a remote system
[04:11] <Kousotu> lol
[04:11] <Kousotu> np lgc
[04:11] <tarvid> wastrel, locally it works
[04:11] <wastrel> tarvid:  prolly remote system is not understanding your LANG thingy.  try export LANG=C on the remote system then run vi
[04:11] <tonyyarusso> Kousotu: Not yet, since it's not released.
[04:11] <Kousotu> tonyyarusso: damn... lol
[04:11] <wastrel> on remote system you can add that lang setting to your .bashrc
[04:12] <tonyyarusso> Kousotu: wait until October.
[04:12] <tarvid> wasabi, the remote system is also feisty and it does the same thing on gutsy
[04:12] <wastrel> oh neato weirdo
[04:12] <tarvid> wastrel, sorry that was meant for you
[04:12] <lgc> Pelo, I inserted the CD and I get a popup notifying that a volume with software packages was detected. Should I open with the package manager (I gather it's "open with Synaptic?")?
[04:12] <Kousotu> tonyyarusso: but... that's a long was off :(
[04:12] <wastrel> tarvid:  are you using screen?
[04:12] <Pelo> endo2016, I would consider a clean install,  move your /home folder to a seperate partition you'll be able to save all your settings
[04:12] <Kousotu> ways*
[04:12] <tarvid> gnome-terminal
[04:12] <Pelo> lgc,  yes
[04:13] <Pelo> lgc,  that way the cd will be added to the source list
[04:13] <bkudria> can some help me set up pam-ssh?  i've followed all the directions in the README.Debian, but I'm prompted for the passphrase each time anyway.  has anyone got this working?
[04:13] <Kousotu> pelo: Gutsy, imo is deciently stable now, 3 wasn't so grat, but 4 is workng fine for me
[04:14] <kefka2> What's the proper command, using sed, to replace a ";" with nothing?
[04:14] <craigbass1976> I've got to set up a display (at an open market/flea market type thing, not a display as in monitor) and was thinking of having some kind of presentation running for folks to see when they walk by.  What do people here recommend, ooImpress or something lese?
[04:14] <Kousotu> kefka2: replace it with a space
[04:14] <wastrel> tarvid:  i dunno...  can't think of any other reasons it might be broken.  i bet changing the LANG to C would help  but it's a hackish workaround.
[04:14] <Pelo> Kousotu, I donT' do betas, I wait a month after the official release to even try them
[04:14] <craigbass1976> else
[04:15] <Dalmatian> Hey I'm trying to install drivers for my ati card again. On the ati website it says launch a terminal and navigate to the driver I downloaded
[04:15] <kefka2> Kousotu: I can't, it's a directory name. It'll bork if I have a space
[04:15] <Kousotu> pelo: just syin.
[04:15] <Dalmatian> How do I navigate to it?
[04:15] <Kousotu> sayin*
[04:15] <lgc> Pelo, it's unmounting the CD-ROM, but it looks like it's stuck...
[04:15] <Pelo> craigbass1976,  what kind of display, ? what do you want to show ?
[04:15] <Kousotu> kefka2: wht dir?
[04:15] <Kousotu> lol
[04:15] <Pelo> lgc,  put the cd back in , and check in synaptic
[04:15] <craigbass1976> Pelo, an alternative to windows.  :)
[04:15] <tarvid> wastrel, after export LANG=C I get the same results
[04:16] <Gener1c>  cat /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.20/include/config/kernel.release

[04:16] <Andrew250> does anyone know grub well?
[04:17] <Gener1c> hey i dlled the kernel source using aptget
[04:17] <Gener1c> it says its the latest
[04:17] <Kousotu> Andrew250: What do you ned to know?
[04:17] <Pelo> craigbass1976,  ok so you want to demo ubuntu ,   use  recordmydesktop to  record yourself doing stuff and play it in totem fullscreeen or something,  you can also use impress for microsoft whatchamacall it time presentations
[04:17] <jzl> Can someone help me with fdisk and tell me if I totally screwed HDs
[04:17] <Dalmatian> Does anyone here run ati cards?
[04:17] <Andrew250> Do you know what error 21 is or how grub could appear after I formated my drive?
[04:17] <Pelo> craigbass1976,  there's also abunch of demos online in youtuve and stuff like that you can probably dl an use
[04:17] <lgc> Pelo, is there a way to modify 'sources.list' from Synaptic? (Instead of changing 'edgy' to 'feisty' manually on the file)
[04:17] <Pelo> Andrew250,  hold on
[04:18] <Pelo> lgc, not taht I know of
[04:18] <calc> Andrew250: its in the boot sector/first cylinder, if you just format it probably won't be affected
[04:18] <devinderbhullar> anyone used CPAN
[04:18] <Pelo> Andrew250,  this is error 21 : Selected disk does not exist
[04:18] <Pelo>     This error is returned if the device part of a device- or full file name refers to a disk or BIOS device that is not present or not recognized by the BIOS in the system.
[04:18] <JulioNeto2000> Hello for Everbody
[04:18] <Dalmatian> How do you navigate to a file in the terminal?
[04:18] <shiznix`> hello
[04:18] <jzl> I was trying to format a USB harddrive...
[04:18] <calc> Andrew250: if you have old style fdisk you could run fdisk /mbr to overwrite the master boot record
[04:18] <shiznix`> secret
[04:18] <craigbass1976> Pelo, I'd like it to run full screen, so don't want to use the youtube ones.  How would I run the presentation and lock anyone from stopping it, just unplug the keyboard and mouse?
[04:19] <bruenig> Dalmatian, you can cd into the directory that contains it
[04:19] <calc> Andrew250: that is safe to do on a dos/windows system
[04:19] <Dalmatian> cd?
[04:19] <Pelo> Andrew250,  this can mean that the hdd adress in grubmenu is not the correct one, if you changed the boot order for exemple
[04:19] <phenom> devinderbhullar:  Comprehensive Perl Archiving Network? Everyday?
[04:19] <Kousotu> Dalmatian: cd n cmmand mean control dir
[04:20] <eduacsp> hello there
[04:20] <Dalmatian> Ahhh
[04:20] <bruenig> Dalmatian, no it means "change directory"
[04:20] <eduacsp> anyone knows how can i set the firestarter to load at startup?
[04:20] <Dalmatian> So I simply type in cd/home/username/downloads/filename?
[04:20] <Pelo> craigbass1976, not sure,  series of   screenshots and stuff using fspot as screensaver with password for login back in ?
[04:20] <Kousotu> bruenig: change and control.. hm.. matter of interpretation
[04:20] <Andrew250> I've made a lot of changes.  I completely removed Ubuntu and Grub didn't have a problem with that and I formated the drive and reinstall XP and no problem there.  But when I install Ubuntu on the USB drive that's when the error happened.
[04:20] <bruenig> you aren't controlling it
[04:21] <bruenig> Dalmatian, explain what you are trying to do exactly
[04:21] <lgc> Pelo, then I'll use the old-fashioned command line!
[04:21] <jzl> if I do a "fisk -l" and my other Harddrives dont show up... are they gone?
[04:21] <Dalmatian> Following instructions on ATi's website to use their automatic driver installer
[04:21] <craigbass1976> Pelo, I wanted sound too, and more control than I'd probably get running just a screen saver.  I'll just take the input devices with me after I set it up
[04:21] <devinderbhullar> who has used CPAN on Ubuntu
[04:21] <Kousotu> bruenig: tel me then, if Im not controling it, how am I able tomodify it?
[04:21] <Pelo> Andrew250, did you set the usb drive as boot drive in the bios  when you installed ubuntu on it
[04:21] <bruenig> Kousotu, you don't modify it with cd
[04:22] <JulioNeto2000> Guys, I need configure the Grub, samebody can learn me?
[04:22] <Pelo> craigbass1976, honestly man I don'T know , I'm just trowing you suggestions here
[04:22] <Kousotu> bruenig: rght, but you modify it with comands after cd
[04:22] <nosrednaekim> JulioNeto2000: what o you want it to do?
[04:22] <Pelo> JulioNeto2000,  configur grub to do what ?
[04:22] <devinderbhullar> h ipelo
[04:22] <devinderbhullar> have u sed CPAN
[04:22] <Kousotu> bruenig: so in essence, the same idea applies
[04:22] <Pelo> devinderbhullar,  I don'T allow private msg , please talk to me in the channel
[04:22] <craigbass1976> Pelo, how to you do screen capture?  Not shots, but motion capture (like the beryl shots on youtube)?
[04:22] <Andrew250> Pelo: no
[04:22] <bruenig> Kousotu, well not necessarily but in any sense, it is officially change directory
[04:23] <devinderbhullar> i am having errors
[04:23] <phenom> devinderbhullar: I'd ask in #Perl
[04:23] <devinderbhullar> ok
[04:23] <Pelo> devinderbhullar,  I don'T know what cpan is
[04:23] <jzl> looking for some fdisk help, an takers?
[04:23] <JulioNeto2000> My computer have 2 operational systens, Win XP e Ububtu
[04:23] <Kousotu> jzl: do you see people busy helping others?
[04:23] <Pelo> Andrew250, here is what happened,  grub phase 1 is installed on your hdd and phaze two is installed on the usb drive, remove eitehr and it won'T boot
[04:24] <Dalmatian> How do I type in the cd command for the terminal?
[04:24] <jzl> Kousotu: sure do, why?
[04:24] <sharkbrainguy> is it cool to ask kde/kubuntu related questions here or is there another channel?
[04:24] <JulioNeto2000> but, the Ubuntu, start firist, while, I want that win XP, start firist
[04:24] <nilihanth> hello, is there a command to install the latest nVidia drivers in terminal?
[04:24] <jzl> Kousotu: hence the reason I asked...
[04:24] <bruenig> Dalmatian, cd /directory/you/want/to/cd/into
[04:24] <JulioNeto2000> you can help me?
[04:24] <Kousotu> jzl: well, one of them will get to you lol
[04:24] <MrCollins> :)

[04:25] <bruenig> Dalmatian, you didn't type it right
[04:25] <lgc> Pelo, it says it can't find a solution for the dependency conflicts. When I say 'y' to 'try more thoroughly?' I get the same thing. What can I do?

[04:26] <Pelo> lgc, what the heck are you tring to do now ?

[04:31] <Andrew250> so do get grub off my drive I have to fdisk?
[04:31] <Pelo> wastedfluid,  never got lm-sensors to work well with gdesklets, there is a problem with the gdesklets controler
[04:31] <craigbass1976> boontoo, and what does lspci tell you.  You have broadcom chip, realtek, or what?
[04:32] <lgc> bruenig, pardon my ignorance, but why are they 'discrete'?
[04:32] <bruenig> Andrew250, if you remove grub, you won't be able to boot into anything, unless you install another bootloader

[04:33] <boontoo> craigbass1976: yep i just did that want me to run it?
[04:33] <bruenig> lgc, if you want a distro that is permanent that just upgrades as it goes in a smooth manner and not in an all at once every 6 months way, then they are a bad way to go, if you don't mind the hassles every 6 months or the out of date software or fresh installs then they are fine
[04:33] <m0u5e> anyone know what could cause mozilla thunderbird to have a segmentation core dump on ubuntu? it happens whenever i try to connect to a *specific* pop3 mail server...

[04:36] <devinderbhullar> thanks Pelo
[04:36] <devinderbhullar> pelo how do i solve the CPAN problem
[04:36] <lgc> bruenig, I do update frequently, not just at every 'discrete' release. I would assume that it shouldn't be much of a problem to upgrade the distro, as it is my experience.
[04:36] <Pelo> mudkipdesu,   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg   just stick to the defaults and then come back and we'll tell you how to do it right
[04:36] <nikita> then installation goes well, but at the end you it can not identify DVD
[04:36] <Pelo> devinderbhullar,  I don'T knw anyting about cpan,   check in the forum  www.ubuntuforums.org
[04:36] <bruenig> Andrew250, when you say backup, what exactly do you mean, just a bunch of data or do you mean a full installable standalone OS, a disk image perhaps?
[04:36] <JustAboutRealJAR> hey where can I read up on gutsy?
[04:36] <craigbass1976> boontoo, you'll have to hunt around the forums or ask in here about broadcom and wpa

[04:37] <bruenig> Kousotu, well please do intervene
[04:37] <lgc> bruenig, you mean that what I get from the install CD is already somehow outdated?
[04:37] <bruenig> lgc, you update frequently, but ubuntu does not update frequently, they don't update any software except for security patches in between releases for the most part
[04:37] <Kousotu> bruenig: who sd I wasn't lokigng tht up?

[04:38] <nikita> the dvd is PBDS on Dell inspiron 1520

[04:38] <bruenig> Kousotu, I just mean if you don't think I am answering right or misinterpreting, go ahead and answer, I do it to people all the time
[04:38] <Pelo> nikita,  first please use the nick of the person you are talking to wne you talk to them it helps keep track  and dont, use the enter key as punctuation, in a busy channel it makes yuou impossible to follow
[04:38] <mudkipdesu> alright i got that window again asking me for video card info
[04:38] <King_Brad> is there a tutorial on how to setup an RIS server in ubuntu Server 7.04?
[04:38] <Pelo> nikita,  what is the video card on your computer ?
[04:39] <Kousotu> JustAboutRealJAR: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/tribe4
[04:39] <lgc> bruenig, I don't mean to irk you, but I think I still miss your whole point. Is it pointless to upgrade the distro or what?
[04:39] <Pelo> mudkipdesu,  vesa
[04:39] <mudkipdesu> vesa?
[04:39] <nikita> nvidia geforce 8400 M
[04:39] <bruenig> lgc, you were saying that some people can't fresh install, I was saying that those people would be better off using a rolling release distro to begin with
[04:39] <Pelo> nikita, mudkipdesu,  please use the nick of the pserson you are talking to in evey line
[04:39] <Kousotu> JustAboutRealJAR: another lnk for info: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2007-June/000304.html
[04:39] <bruenig> lgc, because even if you try to upgrade conventionally, it is not always smooth and the breakage is sometimes hard to trace which leads inevitably to the fresh install
[04:40] <Pelo> nikita,  when you try to install and get to the boot menu ,  select the text install ,
[04:40] <Andrew250> bruenig: image disk
[04:40] <lgc> bruenig, Oh, then I agree.
[04:40] <bruenig> Andrew250, you should be fine then, it will wipe ubuntu though
[04:40] <wastedfluid> anyone know of any program like gdesklet that works with lm sensors?

[04:40] <Andrew250> bruenig: I tryed to install ubuntu on the USB drive but it reads as no OS
[04:40] <wastedfluid> bruenig; core0, and core1 temp's.. gdesklets won't do it

[04:41] <Pelo> mudkipdesu, right now you should be using keys to reconfigure

[04:43] <bruenig> Andrew250, it is, might be difficult though, probably some bios work would be necessary
[04:43] <Darkkish> How do i fix it?
[04:44] <Andrew250> bruenig: like what?
[04:44] <bruenig> CodemasterMM, the conventional way is to group those users and specify the group but there may be another
[04:44] <Pelo> vbabiy-Laptop,  it isn'T a fix,  it just doesn'T work that way in linux
[04:44] <Spyro_boy> rawr.

[04:44] <Andrew250> bruenig: what would I have to do?
[04:44] <CodemasterMM> Darkkish: try restarting ALSA
[04:44] <Spyro_boy> I just bought a Lenovo 3000 N100 and Ubuntu 6.06 doesn't seem to detect the wireless.
[04:44] <lgc> Pelo, where is your place of residence?
[04:44] <Pelo> devinderbhullar,  open synaptic,  use the search feature , search for pearl
[04:44] <vbabiy-Laptop> Pelo: but there has to be a way to use from the keyboard
[04:44] <bruenig> CodemasterMM, I have only seen group name but you might be able to do GID, the docs are sparse
[04:44] <Spyro_boy> it seems to be a bcm9431
[04:44] <Spyro_boy> any ideas?
[04:44] <wweasel> Just installed Ubuntu on a new laptop, volume is on, no sound comes out: advice?
[04:45] <Pelo> lgc,  do you realy think this is the time for chit chat ?
[04:45] <CodemasterMM> bruenig: okay, thanks.
[04:45] <devinderbhullar> yes i found perl there are lots of package in perl
[04:45] <Darkkish> CodemasterMM, how do i restart alsa?
[04:45] <Andrew250> bruenig: I want to install ubuntu on a USB drive but I don't want grub to be installed on my laptop hard drive.
[04:45] <lgc> Pelo, no, but perhaps you don't know what 'pelo' means in Spanish.
[04:45] <bruenig> Andrew250, well you need a bootloader that will let you boot into linux
[04:45] <Pelo> vbabiy-Laptop,  you can probably map keys to the keyboard  check in menu > system > admin > SCIM or stuff like that,  you could also try checking in the forum for more info
[04:46] <CodemasterMM> Darkkish: sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[04:46] <bruenig> Andrew250, you may be able to tell it to not install grub in the alternate cd, but it is pointless to not install some bootloader, why don't you want the bootloader?
[04:46] <mudkipdesu> damn i
[04:47] <Pelo> !sound | wweasel start wth this
[04:47] <ubot3> wweasel start wth this: 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). 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
[04:47] <Pelo> mudkipdesu,  what now ?
[04:47] <Darkkish> CodemasterMM, that didn't fix it :-/

[04:48] <Andrew250> bruenig: bios
[04:48] <devinderbhullar> i cant do a make in CPAN
[04:48] <bruenig> Andrew250, ok well if you think you can manage that, then check out the alternate cd, it will allow you to choose I think
[04:49] <tankieisgood> Pelo: I found this info, I think it might solve my problem (just so you know) must defragment the partition within w!n. Very often there are some system files near the end of the partition (parked in green lines in the defrag window), that are unmovable for w!n.
[04:49] <tankieisgood> Try to disable the virtual memory file, reboot, defragment 2 times at least instead of 1 time, do the work with gparted and reenable virtual memory after.
[04:49] <lgc> Pelo, "pelo (Sp.)" = "hair (En.). And, as opposed to "cabello", which is "pelo" that grows on the head, "pelo" alone means, by exclusion, hair that grows in places other than the head.

[04:56] <El_Julioso> hey all, quick question: in Windows I must choose "block size" for my partitions when formatting, do Linux FS's (like XFS) work in the same manner? will I need to specify block size?
[04:56] <r0bby> that may help.
[04:56] <zeeble> Andrew250: there's one that runs on windows, called explore2fs
[04:56] <zeeble> dunno if that will help though
[04:56] <r0bby> (I found it last night.)
[04:56] <Pelo> Andrew250, if you want to copy files on to an ntfs partitons ou can install ntfs-3g

[04:59] <wingot> The comment line is seperate to the following line with the UUID
[04:59] <Pelo> radioaktivstorm,  ask in #thunderbird , but it is problaly a hidden folder in /home
[04:59] <bruenig> kazzmir, have to reload the module and restart also probably
[04:59] <wingot> I've never used UUID's, so didn't notice
[05:00] <Pelo> wingot,  you can use blkid in the terminal ot list your drive with bot devtree and uuid

[05:00] <Andrew250> can some one walk me through installing and using Recover?
[05:00] <kazzmir> lsmod doesnt show alsa

[05:00] <Pelo> Andrew250,  you are not being ignored but we can only answer questions we know about  , the forum is a good resource to   www.ubuntuforums.org
[05:00] <endo4977> for some reason 1280x1024 is listed as my max resolution, i know that i can get much better
[05:01] <bruenig> kazzmir, well it is likely that only one applies to you but ubuntu just sort of loads everything else make you decide which one

[05:06] <Almighty_Henaro> Pelo Im trying that now
[05:06] <Almighty_Henaro> Pelo But it doesn't seem to be owrking
[05:06] <CodemasterMM> bruenig: yeah, when I try do sudo chmod it, it gives me the sudo error, since i am trying to use sudo when i chmod it, ha
[05:06] <zxc> Hello, this is Bill Gates, and I pronounce Windows as Windows!
[05:06] <Andrew250> ah!
[05:06] <bruenig> CodemasterMM, ah see that is why it is a security error

[05:07] <bruenig> CodemasterMM, I mean security problem, but anyways,  you are going to need to pop in the live cd probably and chmod it that way
[05:07] <CarlFK> what is the status of Ubuntus  ntfs read/write ?
[05:07] <bruenig> ubuntu doesn't develop filesystem drivers
[05:07] <CodemasterMM> too bad i can't just change into root or something
[05:07] <bruenig> they only develop package management python front ends
[05:08] <bruenig> CodemasterMM, yeah, if there were a root user, it would be no problem, but ubuntu doesn't do that
[05:08] <Almighty_Henaro> Pelo, yeah I tried that
[05:08] <mudkipdesu> Pelo:............
[05:08] <Pelo> mudkipdesu, yes ?
[05:08] <CarlFK> bruenig: ubuntu does more than just 'that' if you want to be a dork about it :)
[05:08] <Almighty_Henaro> All links to the linux driver seem to be dead
[05:08] <hoarycripple> how can I install a package (nbsmtp) without removing postfix (automatic removal)?
[05:08] <Pelo> Almighty_Henaro, did you check in the forum ?
[05:09] <bruenig> CarlFK, not really, I can't think of what else they have done
[05:09] <Almighty_Henaro> Pelo which forum?
[05:09] <mannytu> bruenig: sudo -s password then you get the #
[05:09] <mudkipdesu> errr my screen resolution changed to one that my monitor does not support , and i just get a blank screen (there is sound) , so now im using the livecd
[05:09] <hoarycripple> i'd just install it from source, but the nbsmtp site seems to be down at the moment.
[05:09] <Pelo> hoarycripple,  install the package first,  let it remvoe postfix,  then reisntall postfix
[05:09] <CarlFK> bruenig: don't care.  got anything useful to say about ntfs support?
[05:09] <Sretsnom> pelo, i got more specific, apparently they backdoored my PC
[05:09] <bruenig> mannytu, that is not a root user
[05:09] <Pelo> Almighty_Henaro,  www.ubuntuforums.org
[05:09] <hoarycripple> Pelo, but then it wants to remove nbsmtp
[05:09] <Almighty_Henaro> Pelo Not yet but I might later
[05:09] <bruenig> mannytu, /etc/sudoers has a permission problems, he can't therefore use sudo, he needs to be root to correct the sudoers permission problems
[05:10] <Andrew250> ;(
[05:10] <bruenig> problem*
[05:10] <Pelo> mudkipdesu,  would you mind very much using my nick in every line you type when talking to me , so I know you are talking to me ?
[05:10] <Pelo> hoarycripple,  best I can offer
[05:10] <bruenig> !prefix | Pelo
[05:10] <ubot3> Pelo: If you prefix your lines with the nickname of the person you're talking to, you have a greater chance that that person reads your messages
[05:10] <mudkipdesu> Pelo: o right
[05:10] <endo4977> how can i stop X once it has been started (started by default)?
[05:10] <mannytu> !sudo
[05:10] <ubot3> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:10] <Pelo> bruenig, now is not the time to be cute with me
[05:10] <CarlFK> endo4977: sudo init.d gdm stop
[05:11] <bruenig> mannytu, are you high, he can't use sudo because /etc/sudoers got bad permissions, the only way to change them is as root which since the root account is locked, he can't do
[05:11] <endo4977> is that permanent? i just want something that executes once to shut x down
[05:11] <mudkipdesu> Pelo: is there something i should do to startup with the correct resolution?
[05:11] <Pelo> mudkipdesu,  ok sorry abot having mess up your nvidia driver,  just reistall it and then check in the forum for info on changin resolutions with a nvidia card
[05:11] <CarlFK> endo4977: not perm.  it is what you want
[05:12] <bruenig> nvidia has a graphical configuration utility
[05:12] <mudkipdesu> Pelo: will it work if install from the Livecd?
[05:12] <mannytu> bruenig: when I do it, i get the # which is the root i thought...
[05:12] <bruenig> mannytu, no it isn't root
[05:12] <endo4977> CarlFK: sudo: init.d: command not found
[05:12] <Pelo> mudkipdesu,  no you will need to boot the recovery mode
[05:12] <Andrew250> can I compile if I'm using the ubuntu DVD?
[05:12] <CarlFK> whopps
[05:12] <bruenig> Andrew250, compile what?
[05:12] <Pelo> Andrew250,  yes build-essential is on it
[05:13] <Some_Person> mudkipdesu: Are you trying to use the nVidia driver on the live cd or on an installed Ubuntu?
[05:13] <byonix> Hi, i have just installed kiba dock, kiba dock-dev & kiba plugins, but how to use it, nothing appears when i click kiba dock
[05:13] <CarlFK> endo4977: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[05:13] <zeeble> endo4977: sudo /etc/gdm stop
[05:13] <zeeble> err, /etc/init.d
[05:13] <zeeble> as he said.
[05:13] <CarlFK> jinkx poke
[05:13] <bruenig> byonix, third party, not in ubuntu repos, find the kiba support
[05:13] <Pelo> Some_Person, he's on the live cd because I messed up his installed nvidia driver

[05:13] <Pelo> byonix,  ask in #kubuntu
[05:13] <mudkipdesu> i installed ubuntu (the one with invisible cursor) when you said to restart, it booted up with a resolution that my monitor does not support, right now im using the livecd
[05:13] <bruenig> kiba is not a kde thing is it?
[05:13] <Some_Person> Pelo: oh, well what did you do wrong>?
[05:13] <Andrew250> bruenig: I've never compiled anything before.
[05:13] <faileas> i'd like to get a pair of scripts running as soon as ubuntu boots. anyone know what file i need to edit to do this?
[05:14] <bruenig> Andrew250, I have never heard of "recover"
[05:14] <mudkipdesu> Pelo:whoops forgot your nick
[05:14] <bruenig> mudkipdesu, you have to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:14] <Pelo> Some_Person,  I made him reconfigure X and when I found out he had a nvidia card I made him kill the reconf half way thought
[05:14] <bruenig> good one
[05:14] <Andrew250> bruenig: I need to recover all the files on a ext3 drive with a deleted partision.
[05:14] <Some_Person> Pelo: So have him reconfigure X again!
[05:15] <bruenig> yeah he can reconfigure and use vesa or nv or whatever it chooses
[05:15] <CarlFK> faileas: system, prefs, sessyons, startup
[05:15] <faileas> CarlFK: command line install
[05:15] <bruenig> Andrew250, you can't recover deleted files
[05:15] <Pelo> mudkipdesu, boot the recovery mode,  and sudo kpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ,  use the vesa driver and for the rest select the default provided
[05:15] <Andrew250> the files wern't deleted.
[05:15] <lgc> Does anyone know if Feisty comes with Flash 9?
[05:16] <faileas> Andrew250: try testdisk

[05:16] <Some_Person> Pelo: Is he able to get to command prompt? If so, just have him reconfigure X again!
[05:16] <Andrew250> bruenig: I deleted the partision by accident using XP installer.
[05:16] <Pelo> Some_Person,  I already told him
[05:16] <bruenig> Andrew250, well that doesn't change that you can't recover anything
[05:16] <Andrew250> bruenig: but I havn't used the drive since.
[05:16] <Andrew250> why not?
[05:16] <madman91> hey guys
[05:16] <madman91> problem
[05:16] <Pelo> Some_Person, I'm waiting for him to ask how to boot the revovery mode
