[06:48] <adi1y1> Starnestommy: no, the one that opens when you go to PLACES then COMPUTER
[06:48] <Starnestommy> nickolaus: you can configure the ssh server to use different ports, then forward those ports through the router and use ssh -p <port> <user>@<wan-ip>
[06:49] <dan__> Starnestommy: chown: cannot access `/home/dan/.gvfs': Permission denied
[06:49] <Starnestommy> adi1y1: that's nautilius
[06:49] <Guest69756> what's yalls thoughts on zenwalk? i'm thinking about using it
[06:49] <Starnestommy> dan__: with sudo?
[06:49] <SeaPhor> BZWingZero, without mounting the hdd
[06:49] <dan__> Starnestommy: yes
[06:49] <BZWingZero> SeaPhor: I'll try it without mounting the HDD, it didn't work when mounted.
[06:49] <Starnestommy> dan__: are things otherwise working now?
[06:49] <Arcane-Denial> Does anyone know if its possible to put multiple iso's on a single DVD?
[06:49] <dan__> Starnestommy: yes
[06:49] <Rat409> chown -R <username>:<primary-group-name> /home/dan
[06:50] <Rat409> i.e. dan:users
[06:50] <adi1y1> Starnestommy: ok,dint knew about that. anyways why i cant copy folders from there where as i can copy folder from the termianl if i use cp -R
[06:50] <Starnestommy> Guest69756: it's not ubuntu, so this channel doesn't care
[06:50] <Starnestommy> adi1y1: because it works differently
[06:50] <dan__> Rat409: lemme see what my primary group is
[06:51] <Guest69756> i know, but i'm currently using ubuntu, so i just wanted to know the comparisons on whether to switch, and a little respect would be nice also
[06:51] <UbuntuNix> why each time when i restart my ubuntu..system do rountine check of drive :/dev/sad5 .its that like scandisk? i did proper shutdown! ..why?
[06:51] <adi1y1> Starnestommy:  is it possible to get things done from nautilius
[06:51] <Starnestommy> adi1y1: it is, but you might need to do them differently in nautilius
[06:52] <Rat409> zenwalk is a slackware derivative and afaik kde,xfce centric.its good but pkgs are not as many as debian/ubuntu
[06:52] <Starnestommy> UbuntuNix: probably because you told it to do that, or it thinks that there are errors and it needs to correct them
[06:52] <UbuntuNix> ohh
[06:53] <UbuntuNix> can i disable it?
[06:53] <dan__> Rat409: says my group is dan.  Would it help if my main group was admin?
[06:53] <prosun> :-/:-/i am using ubunt7.04. Can some one tell me how to auto reload the desktop
[06:53] <Starnestommy> dan__: keep it as dan
[06:53] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: no, would you tell me how please? i am bout to reboot now
[06:53] <Starnestommy> UbuntuNix: does it always do that?
[06:53] <Rat409> dan then sudo chown -R dan:dan /home/dan
[06:53] <UbuntuNix> past 3 restart..
[06:53] <Starnestommy> UbuntuNix: go into recovery mode, then run fsck
[06:54] <Boohbah> prosun: in login manager preferences
[06:54] <anirudh0> Arcane-Denial, yes..but i dont remember details..google please
[06:54] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: ok what did you call your backup?  xorg.conf.backup?
[06:54] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz:  yes it is xorg.conf.backup
[06:54] <dan__> Rat409: chown: cannot access `/home/dan/.gvfs': Permission denied
[06:54] <desolate> what does compiz do and why do people add it to heron?
[06:54] <Rat409> ignore that 1 file
[06:54] <Starnestommy> dan__: that error can probably be ingored
[06:55] <Starnestommy> desolate: it does all sorts of special desktop effects
[06:55] <Starnestommy> desolate: including the famous rotating cube thing
[06:55] <dan__> Starnestommy: ok
[06:55] <Rat409> dan__: .gvfs=gnome-virtual-file-system
[06:55] <desolate> Starnestommy, i thought that heron did that
[06:55] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: so in terminal you would type    sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:55] <desolate> Starnestommy, without the use of anything else
[06:55] <jlilly> is it possible to change my locale for a console-only version of ubuntu (8.10)?
[06:55] <Starnestommy> desolate: compiz is part of hardy heron
[06:56] <jlilly> is it possible to change my locale for a console-only version of ubuntu (8.10) WITHOUT rebooting?
[06:56] <Starnestommy> jlilly: 8.04 or 8.10?
[06:56] <desolate> Starnestommy, oh so you don't need to download it?
[06:56] <dan__> Rat409: whats that mean to me?
[06:56] <tanath> i think something is wrong with the latest kernel update. i had a crash where the caps lock kept blinking. apparently that's very bad :P
[06:56] <jlilly> errr. gutsy
[06:56] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``:     sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:56] <Starnestommy> desolate: I don't think so
[06:56] <__mikem> I just spent the last 2 hours of my life trying to get fwcutter to work. It still doesn't work. I need someone to help me fix this.
[06:56] <jlilly> Starnestommy: 8.04, srry, just upgraded 2 days ago
[06:56] <Rat409> dan__: it should give the error its locked/in-use it's normal for that 1 file
[06:56] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: good luck. hope it works
[06:56] <Starnestommy> jlilly: you may need to log out them back in in each console
[06:56] <__mikem> well?
[06:57] <desolate> Starnestommy, i keep seeing heron + compiz videos online
[06:57] <jlilly> Starnestommy: but it shouldn't require a reboot?
[06:57] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: yep, i wrote that down here, going to reboot.. thanks in advance :))
[06:57] <desolate> Starnestommy, im officially confused by it
[06:57] <BZWingZero> SeaPhor: I tried copying it without mounting. It returned the error "Not such file or directory"
[06:57] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: ok good luck
[06:57] <Starnestommy> desolate: that's because it's ubuntu 8.04 hardy heron running compiz
[06:57] <Arcane-Denial> I ran out of CDs can I put the xubuntu .iso onto a DVD and be able to boot fine?
[06:57] <dan__> Rat409: Starnestommy: Thanks for the help
[06:57] <Starnestommy> desolate: other distros, like debian or gentoo, can also run compiz
[06:57] <tanath> and firefox keeps freezing too
[06:58] <prosun> :-/:-/i am using ubunt7.04. Can some one tell me how to auto reload the desktop by writing a shell  script :-/:-/
[06:58] <__mikem> Okay, I know I am not supposed to repeat myself, but I don't have time to wait for someone to decide that that it is now convenient to answer me
[06:58] <desolate> Starnestommy, oh i see can you change the burning effect when closing a window to something else?
[06:58] <SeaPhor> BZWingZero, what exactly,,, the "X" in /etc/X11/ is a capital X,,, ?
[06:58] <tanath> was fine before kernel update though
[06:58] <BZWingZero> yes.
[06:58] <Starnestommy> desolate: using ccsm, yes
[06:59] <desolate> Starnestommy, what is ccsm
[06:59] <Starnestommy> __mikem: did you try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Broadcom_BCM43xx_%28all,_ndiswrapper/firmware%29 ?
[06:59] <Starnestommy> desolate: the tool used to configure compiz
[06:59] <__mikem> Starnestommy, no, I am trying to use fwcutter because it worked fine in 7.10, and therefore it should work in 8.10
[06:59] <desolate> Starnestommy, does it have options for downloading more option online or creating your own
[06:59] <Jalathan> i'm attempting to compile 2.6.25.x, and am currently wondering as to what a Sempron 3400 would classify as under the cpu list
[06:59] <BZWingZero> SeaPhor, thanks for your help, but its about 2am here and I'm gonna call it a night. I'll try again tomorrow.
[06:59] <Starnestommy> __mikem: try that page first
[06:59] <SeaPhor> hrm,,, look up the directory path, make sure i have it correct
[07:00] <Starnestommy> desolate: I think you can download extra plugins for compiz
[07:00] <SeaPhor> ok, hit me here or on #SeaPhor
[07:00] <SeaPhor> BZWingZero, ok, hit me here or on #SeaPhor
[07:00] <BZWingZero> SeaPhor, will do. Thanks a bunch.
[07:01] <__mikem> Starnestommy, the VERY first line of the document says This method is no longer supported and could possibly cause more problems than it fixes. I'm going to leave it up, but just remember - use it at your own risk.
[07:01] <anirudh1> Starnestommy, extra as in not in repos?
[07:01] <__mikem> Starnestommy, how is this a good idea?
[07:01] <Starnestommy> anirudh1: yes
[07:02] <amenado>  how would a user/attacker would abuse a /tmp or /var/tmp directory? supposedly this PAM module namespace allows for poly-instantiation to have each user have each own virtual /tmp ..
[07:02] <Rat409> __mikem: b43/b43-legacy = no joy here,ndiswrapper with winxp driver works bcm94311 (rev02)
[07:02] <Starnestommy> __mikem: read the rest of the page that I linked you to
[07:02] <llama_> I'm trying to manually edit my xorg.conf file, because my resolution was stuck at 800x600. I just made progress, but I have a problem, so anyone that really understands the inner workings of xorg, do help- My computer seems to be using the full 1028x768, but still only displaying 800x600. What did I do wrong?
[07:02] <Rat409> bcmwl5.inf
[07:03] <Starnestommy> amenado: they could create huge files
[07:03] <harris> Guys, what file system can I use to share files for Ubuntu and Linux?
[07:03] <Starnestommy> amenado: or read improperly secured files in there
[07:03] <Starnestommy> harris: over a network?
[07:04] <amenado> Starnestommy-> doesnt a typical linux would have a limit on the file size on /tmp?
[07:04] <anirudh1> amenado, yes..see df -h for your limit
[07:04] <Starnestommy> amenado: they may or may not
[07:04] <harris> Starnestommy:  no, on a local computer.... just a slave hardisk.
[07:04] <anirudh1> harris, win can read/write to fat32
[07:04] <SgtSchultz> llama_: what video card?
[07:05] <Starnestommy> harris: between two linux systems, ext2/3 or reiserfs
[07:05] <amenado> anirudh0-> that would not show the limit other than the max possible content of a partition.
[07:05] <llama_> SgtSchultz, nothing special, just some older laptop that was working fine in 7.10...
[07:05] <anirudh1> amenado, i assumed tmp was a seperate partition
[07:05] <harris> Starnestommy:  Fat32 > filesharing between linux and win
[07:05] <anirudh1> btw anirudh1 right now..a random disconnect deproved me of anirudh0
[07:05] <anirudh1> :)
[07:06] <llama_> SgtSchultz, I'm using "Plug & Play" drivers right now, I think; I don't know a ton about this all, I'm mostly just bumbling around.
[07:06] <prosun> llama_: Did you tried with sudo dpkg-reconfigur xserver-xorg
[07:06] <SgtSchultz> llama_: system>preferences>screen resolution doesn't work?
[07:06] <DarkAudit> !xrdb
[07:06] <llama_> prosun, that doesn't work in 8.04, that only lets you configure the keyboard.
[07:06] <llama_> SgtSchultz, I only have fluxbox; I have an extremely minimal install, because I only have 6 gigs of harddrive. I used the mini.iso.
[07:07] <anirudh1> harris, more or less
[07:07] <anirudh1> *deprived
[07:07] <prosun> llama_: are u sure it does not work in 8.04?
[07:07] <__mikem> Starnestommy, that was the first thing I tried. It didn't work
[07:07] <harris> okay so FAT32 is okay to read and write, on windows or linux
[07:07] <llama_> prosun, there's a bug report on launchpad. It's got a lot of people very, very frustrated...
[07:08] <prosun> llama_: o i c
[07:08] <__mikem> Starnestommy, ^
[07:08] <Starnestommy> __mikem: what model of broadcom card is it? and yes, I saw
[07:08] <Rat409> try dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg?
[07:08] <__mikem> Starnestommy, its the model that ships with the HP Pavilion dv6000
[07:08] <Starnestommy> __mikem: I don't know which model that is
[07:09] <Rat409> __mikem: lspci | grep Network
[07:09] <SeaPhor> ok, amenado  g'night, anirudh1 , stop by any time, Starnestommy  thanks always for your time    g'night all
[07:09] <Rat409> i went to hp's site for my full specs.
[07:09] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: I am back.. after editing the xorg file do i need to reboot to apply the changes?
[07:09] <__mikem> bcm94311mcg
[07:10] <yell0w> In-Sane``: ctrol-alt-backspace to restart X
[07:10] <__mikem> Starnestommy, ^
[07:10] <In-Sane``> yell0w: ok
[07:11] <liassist> hello, i would like to know if i can install KDE + openbox3 on ubuntu server on my laptop my system is 256mb ram 1.4ghz processer and 64mb vram (i need a good distro for this configuration) , i want a nice and good DE and WM with menu's and all stuff like gnome (i do not want gnome) !!!###@@@ram is not upgradable@@@###!!!
[07:11] <prosun> :)Can anybody give the name of room for unix  programming
[07:11] <__mikem> Starnestommy, I just listed the model number
[07:11] <Starnestommy> __mikem: check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsBroadcom for BCM4311
[07:11] <yell0w> prosun: #bash ?
[07:11] <anirudh1> liassist, enlightenment fits your needs best..if you want a bit of eye-candy that is
[07:13] <Starnestommy> __mikem: or try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=804989 as the person who posted that had the same model of card in ubuntu 8.04
[07:13] <__mikem> Starnestommy, okay, I found the entry on that page, but this patge does not tell me how to get it to work
[07:13] <liassist> anirudh1, i didnt get that (please elaborate)
[07:14] <__mikem> Starnestommy, again, I am using fwcutter, and not ndiswrapper, that second link you gave me assumes ndiswrapper
[07:14] <Starnestommy> __mikem: try with ndiswrapper.  There's a chance that fwcutter might not work
[07:15] <Rat409> __mikem: you need the firmware regardless,if you want it to work use ndiswrapper and 'doze driver
[07:15] <prosun> yell0w: thank you
[07:15] <Starnestommy> __mikem: and there's some other stuff on that page that you can try
[07:15] <anirudh1> liassist, look at e17.dunnewind.net..e17 is a desktop environment like kde and gnome..but runs better on low ram etc
[07:15] <Rat409> yuh i used the forum script
[07:16] <Jalathan> i'm attempting to compile the 2.6.25 kernel so that i can use my hardware to its fullest, as the 2.6.24 kernel doesn't have a certain module, and am currently wondering as to what a Sempron 3400 would classify as under the cpu list
[07:16] <yell0w> prosun: np, isthat what you're looking for ?
[07:16] <yell0w> :)
[07:17] <anirudh1> is there a way to restore gnome setting to the way they were in the default install..i dont have a backup
[07:18] <Starnestommy> Jalathan: amd64, probably
[07:18] <SgtSchultz> anirudh1: http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2007/02/14/how-to-reset-ubuntugnome-settings-to-defaults-without-re-installing/
[07:18] <Jalathan> Starnestommy, this is a 32bit cpu
[07:19] <Starnestommy> Jalathan: then i386
[07:19] <vlt> Hello. After the latest update of pkg linux-image (and some others) yesterday my wifi device ath0 has gone. Any idea where to look why?
[07:19] <puff> Ever since the kernel update to hardy last week, I've been having intermittent freeze-ups - might be just the video lockign up, might be the entire system.  I have not yet been in a situation where I had the opportunity to try ssh'ing in during one of these episodes.  Anybody know more about this?
[07:20] <puff> vlt: Yeah, see but 180455.
[07:20] <puff> vlt I have the same problem, it comes back after reboot.
[07:20] <Starnestommy> ubottu: bug 180455
[07:20] <styles> puff: same
[07:20] <puff> Might be bug 184055.
[07:20] <puff> Lemme check.
[07:20] <Jalathan> Starnestommy, sorry about not putting up the options: http://paste.ubuntu.com/18260/
[07:21] <Jalathan> Starnestommy, nm
[07:21] <vlt> puff: No, doesn't come back.  Would not be one enough?
[07:24] <amenado> moDumass->  dmidecode
[07:24] <moDumass> hmm, system monitor is seeing 1.5gigs whereas i should be having 2gigs
[07:24] <moDumass> jsut installed another 2 512sticks
[07:24] <amenado> moDumass->  dmidecode  as root off course
[07:24] <puff> styles: Do you remember the bug I found about this?
[07:24] <Starnestommy> moDumass: or with sudo
[07:24] <puff> moDumass: Note that free/unfree ram isn't that useful in modern linux.
[07:24] <moDumass> may shut down and see if both of those sticks are sitting snuggly
[07:25] <fooks> whats an IM client with really pretty eye candy, like ichat or adium?
[07:25] <puff> moDumass: Unused ram doesn't save up, so linux tries to maximize performance by cacheing/preloading stuff in ram.
[07:25] <ionstorm> There is an OPN wireless network in my area that has no SSID, how do I connect to it with just a mac address since I have that via iwconfig or interfaces
[07:25] <anirudh0> fooks, there are themes for pidgin iirc...and there's psi and kopete on kde
[07:26] <vlt> puff: Sorry, I don't understand a single word from the bug report. What should I do?
[07:26] <__mikem> hey Starnestommy it still doesn't work
[07:26] <fooks> anirudh0, hmm
[07:26] <Starnestommy> __mikem: I'm out of ideas, sorry.
[07:26] <puff> ionstorm: This is some wacky "stealth" mode where the access point tries to "hide" by not including its essid in responses to scans.    The way to defeat it is to sniff somebody else's connection to the access point.
[07:27] <puff> vlt: I'm trying to find the bug report I was talking about.
[07:27] <ionstorm> puff, so I am unable to connect with just the mac? and i'll need to sniff the ssid w/wireshark/monitor mode correct?
[07:27] <puff> ubottu: bug 184055
[07:27] <puff> ubottu: bug 184054
[07:28] <puff> puff: Yeah, AFAIK.
[07:28] <adi1y1> anybody free to help ??? getting this error "no error messages,i tried mounting those ntfs drives but i couldnt so i deleted all the partitions."
[07:28] <__mikem> I still don't have a working wifi connection, I have been up half the night already, why won't my wifi card work
[07:28] <adi1y1> anybody free to help ??? getting this error  "File size limit exceeded (core dumped)"
[07:28] <vlt> puff: Aah, so it was he wrong bug you mentioned first ... (I missed that)
[07:29] <Starnestommy> __mikem: because your card's manufacturer doesn't want to make linux drivers or tell developers how to make them
[07:29] <Starnestommy> adi1y1: the files that you're using must be too big
[07:29] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: hmmz, I did those changes, dunno if was able to get it right. I am still not able to enable desktop effects as the post said
[07:29] <adi1y1> Starnestommy: yes,there are more than 4 Gb , and thats the problem
[07:30] <neon2323> http://www.metacafe.com/fplayer/1370978/amazing_balance_of_coins.swf   o_O
[07:30] <puff> vlt: Try /etc/init.d/hal restart
[07:30] <hasmind> I'm just about sick of damn linux stuff not working.
[07:30] <adi1y1> Starnestommy: now is there a way to copy those large file ???
[07:30] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: open system>Admin>hardware drivers is there an entry in there now?
[07:30] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: I restored my xorg.conf.backup file
[07:31] <Starnestommy> adi1y1: you could split them into smaller files, move them, then put them back together
[07:31] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: those last changes messed it up?
[07:32] <adi1y1> Starnestommy: how to achieve that ?
[07:32] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: no, no entry there... yesi think i messed up with it, i will paste you alink to see my old xorg file
[07:32] <Starnestommy> adi1y1: I'm not sure
[07:32] <hasmind> "configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables"   GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
[07:32] <Starnestommy> hasmind: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[07:32] <Chrysalis> when i launch programs i see an extra window 'opening 0 items' like with firefox and some programs like sonata dont load at all, any ideas?
[07:32] <MeVsTheVoices> Is there a command I can use to find my sound hardware?
[07:32] <hasmind> then that will have ten other dependencies...
[07:32] <CorbinFox> does ubuntu (either 7.10 or 8.04) work well with the latest Macbook Pros?
[07:32] <adi1y1> Starnestommy: okkk
[07:33] <Starnestommy> hasmind: but they're needed for compiling things
[07:33] <maxibuntu> anyone know how to view an image without X ?
[07:33] <intravenous> harro
[07:33] <hasmind> k, thanks
[07:33] <Starnestommy> maxibuntu: if you have working framebuffers, you could use fbi
[07:34] <maxibuntu> Starnestommy: thanx
[07:34] <jacques__> I'm running ubuntu 8.04, specifically kde4daily, in virtualbox. I need to change the resolution from 1280x1024 to 1400x900. Does anyone know how to do this?
[07:34] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: http://paste.ubuntu.com/18264/   this is the old xorg.conf file.. I don't know where i should exactly apply the changes like it said in the post.. maybe you can show me, please?
[07:35] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: ok 1 sec looking
[07:35] <In-Sane``> ok
[07:35] <Chrysalis> also, new windows open in the background for some reason, its wierd
[07:36] <J-_> what gnome setting should I enable to automatically mount drives(external) in fluxbox?
[07:37] <Sarah> recently whenever i am in the appearance menu and try to change the wallpaper by clicking on any of the images i've added there, nothing happens, and i have to use the arrow keys to select each different one
[07:37] <Sarah> does anyone know why?
[07:37] <Sarah> and also occasionally the mouse will select one, but it just seems to do that randomly or once, then it wont select any and i haev to use the arrow keys again
[07:37] <anirudh0_> i had two disconnects and now anirudh0 is shown as taken..any ideas on getting it back..could'nt find anything in the freenode faq
[07:37] <CorbinFox> does ubuntu (either 7.10 or 8.04) work well with the latest Macbook Pros?
[07:37] <desolate> what is the difference between kubuntu and xubuntu
[07:38] <Starnestommy> desolate: kubuntu is kde, xubuntu is xfce
[07:38] <Starnestommy> anirudh0_: is anirudh0 registered to you?
[07:38] <anirudh0_> yes
[07:38] <desolate> Starnestommy, what is kda and xfce?
[07:38] <Starnestommy> desolate: they're desktop environments
[07:38] <anirudh0_> like gnome
[07:38] <Starnestommy> desolate: regular ubuntu uses one called gnome
[07:38] <hasmind> I'm no windows fan, but ubuntu doesn't ever seem to work first go if u try to install something, and windows always does
[07:38] <desolate> Starnestommy, do they emulate the look of another os
[07:38] <Starnestommy> anirudh0_: /msg nickserv ghost anirudh0 <password>
[07:39] <SgtSchultz> !paste
[07:39] <hasmind> wxPython was corrupted?
[07:39] <Starnestommy> desolate: not by default, but you can configure them to look like a different os
[07:39] <unimatrix9> what would give the best performance : kvm : virtualbox : or vmware server? ( and i don mean , wich is the most free and open )
[07:39] <anirudh0> Starnestommy, thanks
[07:39] <Starnestommy> unimatrix9: I think kvm
[07:40] <desolate> Starnestommy, im looking at screenshots but i dont see any real difference
[07:40] <J-_> what gnome setting should I enable to automatically mount drives(external) in fluxbox?
[07:41] <anirudh0> desolate, you have to use them to see the difference..looks are deceptive
[07:41] <Utalcn2me> how do i keep my icons from moving around and changing there order?  I think it's because i change resolution from time to time - is there any way to lock them into position?
[07:41] <desolate> anirudh0, have you used them? Maybe there is a few differences you could point out?
[07:42] <anirudh0> Utalcn2me, no..and you can see why..different sizes will fit in different schemes
[07:42] <Starnestommy> desolate: xfce is more lightweight and its default applications behave differently
[07:42] <anirudh0> desolate, see this http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/kdegnome
[07:42] <Starnestommy> desolate: it also uses gtk and looks different than kde, which uses qt
[07:43] <anirudh0> Starnestommy, xfce is'nt really lightweight anymore..the devs have tried to squeeze in all the functionality of gnome
[07:43] <Utalcn2me> anirudh0, yea, but i leave plenty of room, i dunno why it would matter..
[07:43] <behiimehii> How can I downgrade from FireFox 3.5?
[07:44] <behiimehii> I'm really disliking it ;/
[07:44] <dan__> When trying to share folders in my home directory I keep getting "permission Denied"  What do I need to do to be able to share folders in my /home directory?
[07:44] <Starnestommy> behiimehii: firefox 3.5 or firefox 3 beta 5?
[07:44] <behiimehii> Oh you're right, 3 beta 5, I'm sorry
[07:44] <Starnestommy> dan__: chmod a+r ~
[07:44] <anirudh0> Utalcn2me, lets see..say in 1 cm2 of physical screen area you could put 2 icons(0.5 cm2 each) at a low res
[07:44] <Starnestommy> behiimehii: what are you trying to downgrade it to?
[07:45] <porkedpiehat> Utalcn2me, i've had that problem as well, I think the problems stem from the variable size of the notification area
[07:45] <behiimehii> Starnestommy: I'm not quite sure.  I can't remember what it used to be about three months back :/
[07:45] <Starnestommy> behiimehii: firefox 3 beta 4?
[07:46] <stdin> behiimehii: you can install the package "firefox-2" to get FireFox 2 back
[07:46] <behiimehii> Ah, that's what it was! Thank you stdin
[07:46] <dan__> Starnestommy:
[07:46] <dan__> net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare: cannot open usershare directory /var/lib/samba/usershares. Error Permission denied
[07:46] <dan__> You do not have permission to create a usershare. Ask your administrator to grant you permissions to create a share.
[07:46] <Utalcn2me> porkedpiehat, and i dont have that problem with xubuntu - i was just wondering if there was a file i could write protect to keep them from chaning
[07:47] <Starnestommy> dan__: I'm not sure how to fix that one.  Next time, use http://paste.ubuntu.com for pastes that are bigger than one line
[07:47] <Paulao> what is the best video player with subtitles support and a mp3 player to use with ubuntu ?
[07:47] <porkedpiehat> Utalcn2me, i ended up creating another panel for the icons and haven't had any problems since then
[07:47] <CorbinFox> does ubuntu (either 7.10 or 8.04) work well with the latest Macbook?  are there any hardware issues or lots of configuration needed before i can do anything in it?  how is wireless support on it?
[07:47] <Sarah> Paulao, did you try vlc yet
[07:47] <anirudh0> Utalcn2me, on increasing res, effective screen area occupied by each icon goes down...so more pack into the same space..same argument also applies in reverse
[07:47] <anirudh0> behiimehii, just install firefox-2.0 via package manager
[07:48] <Utalcn2me> porkedpiehat, that is a great idea actually
[07:48] <dan__> Starnestommy: I was hoping it wouldnt puntuate but it did  :o(
[07:48] <Masiosare> Dan: add this line to the global section of /etc/samba/smb.conf  : usershare owner only = False
[07:48] <Paulao> Sarah, no, just installed ubuntu... first time using, so im looking for advices to choose the best software for basic functions like video playing with subtitle and mp3 player ;D
[07:48] <Masiosare> And restart the samba process
[07:49] <Fals-Ubunto> anyone know where i can get that old game for linux based OS think it was called Free craft? was alot like War craft?
[07:49] <Sarah> Paulao, vlc is good for movies and it does subtitles and everything
[07:49] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: you still there?
[07:49] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: you can try this one    http://paste.ubuntu.com/18269/
[07:50] <Paulao> Sarah,  oks thanks... and for mp3 ?
[07:50] <anirudh0> Paulao, also see http://www.linuxrsp.ru/win-lin-soft/table-eng.html
[07:50] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: ok
[07:50] <dan__> Masiosare: anywhere in the file?
[07:50] <Sarah> Paulao, i dont really know what the best mp3 player is, there are a few and i dont like any of them
[07:51] <anirudh0> Paulao, amarok
[07:51] <jshewey> Grrr... Can't seem to find out how to install a simple networked jetdirect printer (hp laserjet 4100)
[07:51] <Masiosare> Try putting it below the [global]
[07:51] <Utalcn2me> Paulao, i really like bmp-experimental - especially for shoutcast
[07:52] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: do i need to reboot or just ctrl+alt+backspace?
[07:52] <Scaevolus> http://blog.wired.com/27bstroke6/2008/06/hans-reiser-off.html Hans Reiser, the Linux programmer facing a mandatory 25-to life term for killing his wife, might disclose the location of Nina Reiser's body in exchange for a reduced term.
[07:52] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: did you do the SKIP_CHECKS=yes already?
[07:53] <samah> hi all i have problem ,could anyone help me???
[07:53] <anirudh0> Scaevolus, relevance?
[07:53] <Scaevolus> anirudh0: linux!
[07:53] <maxibuntu> Starnestommy: i've just install fbi, but it doesn't work
[07:53] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: yes i did
[07:53] <maxibuntu> Starnestommy: how to enable framebuffer ?
[07:53] <rene> hi
[07:53] <anirudh0> Scaevolus, he has'nt developed a new filesystem..he's killed his wife..how does that matter to linux?
[07:53] <Starnestommy> maxibuntu: in ubuntu 8.04?
[07:53] <Paulao> anirudh0,  Utalcn2me  thanks
[07:53] <porkedpiehat> samah, just ask your question, if someone knows they'll answer
[07:53] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: i usually do a reboot but either way
[07:53] <maxibuntu> Starnestommy: yup hardy
[07:54] <Starnestommy> maxibuntu: hold on, I'll check
[07:54] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: ok, I will reboot, thanks again for your help
[07:54] <Paulao> hey do you guys know any tutorial or website, teaching how to config compiz fusion to my ubuntu can look beautiful ?
[07:54] <llama_> semi-noob trying to edit xorg.conf on my old laptop on a minimal fluxbox & handful of other programs only install- My computer is creating a full 1024x768 desktop, but it is displaying it in an 800x600 rectangle in the center of the screen- my xorg.conf file is pasted here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/18271/
[07:54] <behiimehii> What was the three letter acronym to add the custom visual effects? I believe it was something like Compiz Something Config
[07:54] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: good luck
[07:54] <jase80> hi guys, im new to ubuntu and im finding the audio output from rythmbox a little bit tinny. Any suggestions to make the sound a little more bassy?
[07:54] <anirudh0> behiimehii, ccsm
[07:54] <maxibuntu> Starnestommy: i've set vga=792
[07:54] <behiimehii> Ah, thank you
[07:54] <behiimehii> I wasn't too off
[07:54] <anirudh0> jase80, equalizer?
[07:54] <maxibuntu> maxibuntu: does it means my framebuffer already active
[07:54] <Starnestommy> maxibuntu: you might need to load the fbcon and/or vesafb modules
[07:55] <samah> ok ,i do l7 filtering i bring the latest patch to yhe kernel for that but it didn't have ipt_layer7 module.where i can find patch to this module?
[07:55] <CorbinFox> does ubuntu (either 7.10 or 8.04) work well with the latest Macbook pros?  are there any hardware issues or lots of configuration needed before i can do anything in it?  how is wireless support on it?
[07:55] <Starnestommy> maxibuntu: try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ConsoleFramebuffer
[07:56] <jase80> ive played around a little with the eq's but cant quite get the output sounding as solid as when i was running winxp.  Are there different MP3 codecs or drivers available that will beef up the sound?
[07:56] <tony403> could someone tell me why i can only mount my windows partitions by entering my root password?
[07:57] <anirudh0> jase80, turn up the volume in alsamixer..this will increase overall volume..you might want to check a different audio player's eq..xmms or audacious for instance
[07:57] <unimatrix9> so other users don mreak it?
[07:58] <kostya> hi all
[07:58] <unimatrix9> break
[07:58] <tritium> tony403: since when did you enable the root account?
[07:58] <Utalcn2me> tony403, only root can mount
[07:58] <jase80> anirudh0: Cool ill try those options out and see how i go. Thanks for your help.
[07:58] <dan__> Masiosare: same problem
[07:58] <llama_> help with writing xorg.conf on 8.04, anyone, please? semi-noob trying to edit xorg.conf on my old laptop on a minimal fluxbox & handful of other programs only install- My computer is creating a full 1024x768 desktop, but it is displaying it in an 800x600 rectangle in the center of the screen- my xorg.conf file is pasted here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/18271/
[07:59] <kostya> здесь есть кто понимает Русский
[07:59] <anirudh0> jase80, np..btw if you realy want to stick with gnome , then exaile may be a better option than rhythmbox
[07:59] <ordinareez> kostya: please speak english
[07:59] <anirudh0> !ru | kostya
[07:59] <Masiosare> dan__: did you already restarted samba? Could you paste the error?
[08:00] <Ronald> llama_: i'm guessing your monitor gets detected as able to do some 800x resolution only. paste /var/log/Xorg.0.log as well as well
[08:00] <Arcane-Denial> Does ArchLinux have a GUI or is everything command line?>
[08:00] <Starnestommy> Arcane-Denial: you can install one
[08:00] <adub> how do i extract .daa files in linux
[08:00] <Fals-Ubunto> trying to put a file somewhere so i can load it but where it has to go or i think it needs to go doesnt exist when trying to navigate to it. ubunto/.xchat2
[08:00] <llama_> Ronald, doing that now, thanks.
[08:00] <behiimehii> Evidently CCSM is already installed, but how do I get that Custom selection under Visual Effects?
[08:00] <Starnestommy> Arcane-Denial: but by default, it's console-based
[08:00] <tony403> Utalcn2me, i done it before. i could, just forgot how
[08:01] <anirudh0> behiimehii, tweak something in ccsm..the selection will change to custom
[08:01] <tony403> tritium, you don't. you just automount as root or change disk permissions
[08:01] <Ronald> llama_: X doesn't autodetect itself properly? its quite good these days
[08:01] <llama_> Ronald, how do I select all visually so I can copy paste it all?
[08:02] <Ronald> llama_: gedit?
[08:02] <behiimehii> anirudh0:  I've done that, but the selection is not even there
[08:02] <Utalcn2me> sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt or something like that
[08:02] <MindVirus> Hi all.
[08:02] <MindVirus> My nvidia drivers are not working.
[08:02] <MindVirus> In fact, Ubuntu is not even recognizing that I have an nvidia card.
[08:02] <MindVirus> I don't think, at least.
[08:02] <anirudh0> behiimehii, you mean the tweaked settings are'nt taking effect?
[08:03] <behiimehii> Well the only options I have are "None, Normal, and Extra"
[08:03] <llama_> Ronald, right. No, X does not, I guess- when I install, it's just an 800x600. There's a bug report on dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg (I think that's what it is) being broken in 8.04 to only do keyboard stuff.
[08:03]  * nakedgoat looks @ bans ;)
[08:03] <behiimehii> When I change something there's still no "Custom"
[08:03] <Utalcn2me> tony403, sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt or something like that - or you could setup fstab
[08:03] <ordinareez> MindVirus:have you installed driver for nvdia?
[08:03] <MindVirus> Of course.
[08:03] <Ronald> llama_: not what i mean. X itself, not dpkg, can set itself up quite well
[08:03] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: worked, thanks a million man
[08:03] <MindVirus> Nvidia was working before the kernel updated.
[08:04] <anirudh0> behiimehii, screw custom..if settings work then thats all that matters :)
[08:04] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: I really appreciate your help, I jave been trying to get working from a long time.. :)))
[08:04] <behiimehii> But what I've changed isn't taking effect either, which is why I'm complaining :/
[08:04] <llama_> Ronald, right, I think I realize. I'm just saying it obviously doesn't initially, since I'm doing this, and the typical way to correct that is now broken, thus my rewriting- or am I still missing something? (installing gedit)
[08:04] <In-Sane``> have*
[08:04] <Ronald> what do you get if you execute Xorg -configure
[08:05] <behiimehii> Also, at 1280x800 resolution web browsers look funky, is there a way to fix that? o.O
[08:05] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: very good compiz is working?
[08:05] <samah> porkedpiehat,could you help me????????
[08:05] <nakedgoat> config scrn for xconf?
[08:05] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: hmmz, lol.. how do i know? I am dumb i know
[08:05] <tony403> Utalcn2me, thanks, that works
[08:05] <nakedgoat> i need a drink.
[08:06] <tmapj> Starnestommy: are you here?
[08:06] <llama_> Ronald, Fatal server error:
[08:06] <llama_> Server is already active for display 0
[08:06] <llama_>         If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock
[08:06] <llama_>         and start again.
[08:06] <FloodBot1> llama_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:06] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: open system>preferences>appearance then visual effects tab
[08:06] <Starnestommy> tmapj: yes
[08:06] <godzero> I'm having trouble with 8.04 desktop - it always stalls between 15 and 20% - several servers with same result
[08:06] <CorbinFox> does ubuntu (either 7.10 or 8.04) work well with the latest Macbook pros?  are there any hardware issues or lots of configuration needed before i can do anything in it?  how is wireless support on it? any help will be appreciated.
[08:06] <tmapj> Starnestommy: the command you gave me didnt work, could you check it and give it to me again pls
[08:06] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: then normal or extra
[08:06] <Ronald> llama_: hehe, so you do have an X running (from which you should be able to run a gedit for Xorg log)
[08:06] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: I am there and I set it to normal
[08:07] <porkedpiehat> samah, i don't know anything about l7 filtering, sorry
[08:07] <behiimehii> So Starnestommy any help on the resolution deal? :/
[08:07] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: yes, it is working
[08:07] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: ok good
[08:07] <Starnestommy> behiimehii: I'm not sure, sorry
[08:07] <samah> porkedpiehat,ok thank you
[08:07] <Truc> help
[08:07] <ce_muanizz> ayu maniez^-^
[08:07] <Starnestommy> behiimehii: wait, it may eb a bad DPI setting
[08:07] <Starnestommy> *be
[08:07] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: is there is a compiz panel or something?
[08:07] <Ronald> CorbinFox: 1st hit in google: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro
[08:07] <maxibuntu> Starnestommy: thanx, it works :)
[08:08] <CorbinFox> wow do i suck
[08:08] <behiimehii> I've waited for over two hours, and it's still messed up
[08:08] <llama_> Ronald, http://paste.ubuntu.com/18272/
[08:08] <ce_muanizz> ayu maniez
[08:08] <tmapj> Starnestommy:  could you give me the original command you gave me?
[08:08] <Starnestommy> tmapj: sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrad
[08:08] <nakedgoat> anyone agree taking bitchx out of ubuntu/debain was a lame choice?
[08:08] <Truc> i'm at the (grub?) boot menu in the beginning, and the main entry (ubuntu 8.04 blah blah .17 generic) doesn't work. i can edit it to fix it, but the changes aren't saved. how do i edit it permanently?
[08:08] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: yes  its called compizconfig-settings-manager
[08:09] <Starnestommy> nakedgoat: bitchx was old and outdated
[08:09] <Ronald> llama_: i do see a suplicate Section monitor start... is not the problem i guess, but its not 'neat'
[08:09] <nakedgoat> Starnestommy : nah
[08:09] <porkedpiehat> Truc: sudo update-grub
[08:09] <nakedgoat> it still owns
[08:09] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: look in synaptic to see if its installed already
[08:09] <tmapj> thanks Starnestommy
[08:09] <Truc> porkedpiehat: once i boot to ubuntu?
[08:09] <nakedgoat> casue the ftp was down for awhile and they couldnk't link the package
[08:09] <nakedgoat> they killed it
[08:09] <Starnestommy> nakedgoat: I've tried it before, but found that I preferred irssi
[08:09] <nakedgoat> it's been back up
[08:09] <porkedpiehat> Truc: well edit /boot/grub/menu.lst first
[08:09] <nakedgoat> ackkkkkkk
[08:09] <porkedpiehat> and then do sudo update-grub
[08:09] <nakedgoat> I have irssi insalled BX owns over it
[08:10] <nakedgoat> just my op.
[08:10] <llama_> Ronald, so now what?
[08:10] <Truc> porkedpiehat: thanks, i'll try that, brb
[08:10] <nakedgoat> bad choice I think
[08:10] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: ok, I am installing it now..
[08:10] <Starnestommy> tmapj: I think I forgot an "e" at the end of that
[08:10] <cwgannon> ahoy
[08:10] <nakedgoat> u can still get the RPM and Alien it
[08:10] <Starnestommy> tmapj: it should have been sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade
[08:10] <cwgannon> i
[08:11] <Ronald> llama_: line 321+322 of the logpaste; you have to add hsync and vsync settings to the monitor section. HorizSync  horizsync-range / VertRefresh  vertrefresh-range from man xorg.conf
[08:11] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: ater its installed it will be in   system>preferences>advanced desktop effect

[08:12] <behiimehii> Anyone know what KVM is?
[08:12] <Ronald> llama_: its running on the settings of a very basic old monitor that can do 640x480@70Hz, 800x600@56Hz
[08:12] <llama_> Ronald, what would that look like? "-hsync -vsync" added tot he end of a line?
[08:12] <Rat409> kernel virtual machine iirc
[08:12] <DistroJockey> behiimehii: Keyboard Video Mouse
[08:12] <nakedgoat> yeah it's a switch that lets you share 1 KB and mouse w/more than one pc
[08:12] <behiimehii> !kvm switch
[08:12] <Ronald> llama_: no look at man xorg.conf for section monitor.
[08:12] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: cool. I got it there
[08:12] <behiimehii> DistroJockey: can you explain that a bit please?
[08:13] <Ronald> llama_: HorizSync / VertRfresh
[08:13] <nakedgoat> i just use synergy for my desktop laptop
[08:13] <unimatrix9> !kvm
[08:13] <tritium> tony403: no, you don't understand my question.  Ubuntu doesn't enable the root account.  It grants sudo priveleges to the first user created.
[08:13] <Starnestommy> behiimehii: it's a kernel-based virtual machine based on qemu.  A KVM switch is used for multiplexing keyboards, video, and mice for servers
[08:13] <llama_> Ronald, I feel like if I open man xorg.conf I'm going to be overwhelmed...
[08:13] <unimatrix9> !virtualbox
[08:13] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: ok your on your own now.. i don't use compiz myself
[08:13] <nakedgoat> get the sun edition xVM
[08:13] <DistroJockey> behiimehii: many computers controlled by 1 keyboard, 1 mouse and one screen
[08:13] <Starnestommy> behiimehii: kvm and a kvm switch are unrelated
[08:13] <nakedgoat> muhc better
[08:13] <behiimehii> Starnestommy: how would I check if either one is installed?

[08:15] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: ok take care

[08:16] <tritium> nakedgoat: virtualbox is in the repos

[08:16] <nakedgoat> thats sun's
[08:16] <nakedgoat> it's better than OSE in my op.

[08:18] <llama_> Ronald, I don't understand why you pasted that- is that my xorg.conf, or did you edit it? I don't know how editing the refresh rates will adjust my display resolution, nor do I know what to adjust my refresh rates to.
[08:18] <tritium> nakedgoat: no, I'm serious
[08:18] <Ronald> llama_: edited
[08:18] <Truc> when i click "save to x configuration file" it says "unable to create new x config backup file /etc/x11/xorg.conf.backup'
[08:18] <nakedgoat> tritium : huh I am not here for a issue?
[08:18] <nakedgoat> my shit works
[08:18] <DracoZA> can anyone tell me why I cant find vmware in add/remove or in synaptic to install ?
[08:18] <Ronald> llama_: you'll have to find out what your monitor can do ;)
[08:18] <Truc> i dunno what's wrong, i not good with linux
[08:18] <tritium> nakedgoat: watch the language, as well
[08:19] <nakedgoat> !lang | nakedgoat
[08:19] <Rat409> Truc: sudo nvidia-settings>merge>apply=good on reboot
[08:19] <Starnestommy> Truc: you probably do not have permission to create /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
[08:19] <DistroJockey> DracoZA: because it ain't OSS
[08:19] <nakedgoat> tritium : u mixed me up w/someone else
[08:19] <Ronald> llama_: or you can tell me what resolution at what refresh your monitor supposed can do
[08:19] <Truc> Rat409: do i just type that in or what?
[08:19] <tritium> nakedgoat: no
[08:19] <nakedgoat> ok
[08:19] <DracoZA> DistroJockey, Ok
[08:20] <llama_> Ronald, I think its 1024x768@60, if I remember right...
[08:20] <behiimehii> What do you guys suggest running, Ubuntu Gutsy (version 7) or Hardy (8)?
[08:20] <nakedgoat> well I don't have a problem so restarting x or my system won't help me casue I don't need hepl
[08:20] <Rat409> Truc: xterm yes
[08:20] <DracoZA> DistroJockey, was it not available in 7.10 ?
[08:20] <DistroJockey> DracoZA: virtualbox is though
[08:20] <nakedgoat> help even
[08:20] <llama_> I have a list of stats for my laptop, if you need it.
[08:20] <DracoZA> DistroJockey, nod I have virtualbox but I have some limitations and problems with it
[08:20] <nakedgoat> tritium : thanks tho
[08:20] <Truc> Rat409: cool thanks it saved, now restarting
[08:21] <Rat409> cool
[08:21] <tritium> nakedgoat: I didn't offer you help.
[08:21] <Ronald> llama_: for that you need to change HorizSync to 31.5-47
[08:21] <nakedgoat> tritium : then why u asking me to restart?
[08:21] <tritium> nakedgoat: I did not
[08:21] <DistroJockey> DracoZA: qemu?
[08:21] <llama_> Ronald: how in the world did you come up with that?
[08:21] <DracoZA> DistroJockey, whats qemu ?
[08:22] <Truc> Rat409: yesss, it worked
[08:22] <nakedgoat> {"nakedgoat try starting now"}
[08:22] <nakedgoat> ok sorry
[08:22] <Ronald> 768 lines at 60 Hz means it needs to draw 46080 lines per second ;)
[08:22] <Ronald> hence 46Khz
[08:22] <tritium> nakedgoat: in reference to !enter.  Now, please stay on topic
[08:22] <nakedgoat> lol
[08:22] <nakedgoat> ok
[08:22] <nakedgoat> sir
[08:22] <DistroJockey> DracoZA: PC emulator
[08:23] <DracoZA> DistroJockey, Tx i'll take a look
[08:23] <Ronald> llama_: and hope your monitor can actually do that ;) no responsibility !
[08:23] <llama_> 31.5-47... why not just 46? (Ronald)
[08:23] <Ronald> 46 is just too low
[08:23] <unimatrix9> virtual machines : u can use , xen , qemu, virtualbox, vmware player / server .. google around to get some info
[08:23] <Ronald> gets you a max Hrefresh of 59.9something
[08:24] <llama_> Ronald: do I need to edit the vertrefresh?
[08:24] <Ronald> llama_: i'd put it. though the defaults are sufficient (default is 50-70)
[08:25] <llama_> Ronald: is there a way to have it reload xorg.conf without restarting my computer?
[08:25] <Ronald> restart /etc/init.d.gdm
[08:25] <unimatrix9> log in and out
[08:25] <Ronald> restart /etc/init.d/gdm
[08:25] <ordinareez> ctrl+alt+backspace
[08:25] <unimatrix9> :P
[08:25] <llama_> Ronald, I don't use GDM, does that matter?
[08:25] <ikonia> llama_: ctral+alt+backspace will restart X but you will loose your desktop session
[08:25] <Ronald> then listen to ordinareez
[08:25] <ordinareez> sorry
[08:26] <Ronald> Hi Matt :D
[08:26] <ikonia> Ronald: ha ha, hello
[08:26] <behiimehii> What do you guys suggest running, Ubuntu Gutsy (version 7) or Hardy (8)?
[08:27] <unimatrix9> hardy 8.04
[08:27] <ikonia> behiimehii: hardy is current
[08:27] <che> hardy
[08:27] <Ronald> behiimehii: gutsy for stability, hardy for bleeding edge (and some bleeding on your part)
[08:27] <unimatrix9> its also lts ( long term support )
[08:27] <stdin> hardy is not bleeding edge
[08:27] <Daviey> Ronald: not sure i would consider hardy bleeding edge..
[08:28] <che> how to change ubuntu's loading screen resolution, i tried startup manager but there hadn't 1280x800 ?
[08:28] <rahul_kumar> i am installing a bin file..and it is showing file not found..
[08:28] <behiimehii> What do you mean by bleeding edge? o.O
[08:28] <unimatrix9> wich means , if i am not wrong , 18 months of upgrade and security updates ( 8.04 )
[08:28] <rahul_kumar> although file is there in same dir
[08:28] <tritium> unimatrix9: 3 years
[08:28] <stdin> unimatrix9: 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.
[08:28] <tritium> !lts
[08:28] <DistroJockey> rahul_kumar: ./nameoffile.bin
[08:29] <Ronald> Daviey: releasing with a beta firefox, with a major linux specific bugreport from a month before release which makes the system slow to a crawl when running FF for some time is not bleeding edge?
[08:29] <Ronald> I guess we'll have to agree to disagree then
[08:29] <stdin> Ronald: including FF3 was a must
[08:29] <che> how to change ubuntu's loading screen resolution, i tried startup manager but there hadn't 1280x800 ?
[08:29] <tritium> Ronald: your argument is based on one application?
[08:29] <Daviey> Ronald: Well this is going OT for the channel, but we can certainly continue this in -offtopic
[08:29] <unimatrix9> yeah true , so go for 8.04 Ubuntu 8.04 LTS will be maintained and supported for three years on the desktop and five years on the server.
[08:29] <rahul_kumar> DistroJockey, i have done same..
[08:30] <Merovech> how do I access my Trash? (where is the default location?)
[08:30] <Ronald> tritium: no. broken plugin installs for FF2 as well. also no fixes a month after release.
[08:30] <DistroJockey> rahul_kumar: chmod +x nameoffile.bin    ?
[08:30] <Ronald> stdin: and i understand the reasoning for inclusing ff3, but the ff3b5/sqlite bug should have been patched before release. fix was known.
[08:31] <rahul_kumar> DistroJockey, but when i open bin file by cat it opens but during exec file is not found
[08:31] <Utalcn2me> che, hows about editting your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file - and make the only entry 1280X800
[08:31] <rahul_kumar> DistroJockey, yes i have done that also..
[08:31] <DistroJockey> rahul_kumar: why cat a .bin?
[08:32] <rahul_kumar> DistroJockey, just to check..only during executing it is not found
[08:32] <DistroJockey> rahul_kumar: ohh, sorry. *nods*
[08:33] <DistroJockey> rahul_kumar: what's the bin for?
[08:33] <Ronald> llama_: any succes yet?
[08:34] <llama_> Ronald, you broke xorg.conf even worse... it wouldn't load it because the keyboard had two "identifier" lines (I looked and it appeared to be a batched copy/paste). I fixed that, and it loaded me in what appears to be a 640x480 display, unless I'm just imagining it...
[08:34] <llama_> Ronald: back to the drawing board, I guess.
[08:34] <Ronald> llama_: wow.. lemme check
[08:34] <llama_> Ronald: Line 6.
[08:34] <llama_> Ronald: it could have been my problem when I pasted it, just as likely.
[08:35] <Ronald> llama_: hmz. i didn't edit there. could you please incorporate the sync settings in your own version?
[08:35] <llama_> Also, ctr+alt+backspace doesn't work on my computer- It just brings me to a useless black screen. My tty's don't work, so I'm stuck when that happens. :\
[08:36] <llama_> Ronald, could you give the pastebin link again?
[08:36] <Ronald> llama_: ah i see. there's some minor mistakes when you pasted your xorg.conf into pastebin.
[08:36] <Ronald> llama_: remove line 6/7
[08:36] <oddalot> anyone know of a good laptop for less than $1,000 that works with ubuntu really well?
[08:36] <llama_> Ronald, I already fixed that, it wouldn't let me load xorg.conf without doing that first.
[08:37] <unimatrix9> ibm lenovo thinkpad?
[08:37] <Frozenball> Eee PC?
[08:37]  * N3bunel saluta
[08:37] <Frozenball> ^^)
[08:37] <Ronald> llama_: grep /var/log/Xorg.0.log for "EE"
[08:37] <unimatrix9> sony viao bx , dell laptops with ubuntu preinstalled
[08:37] <Utalcn2me> oddalot, hows about eee pc - i want one :P
[08:37] <tritium> oddalot: have you checked www.system76.com?
[08:37] <llama_> "grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log", right?
[08:38] <Ronald> yes
[08:38] <oddalot> what is eee?
[08:38] <oddalot> tritium no
[08:38] <oddalot> let me see

[08:39] <TeamColtra[NADC]> oddalot -> Ubuntu is pretty light weight any laptop that costs more than $500 should run Ubuntu
[08:39] <ab-k2> 请问：我有两台电脑 一台是xp双网卡 一台是ubuntu8.04 如何才能共享adsl？
[08:39] <oddalot> what about a built in webcam?
[08:39] <oddalot> does ubuntu support those?
[08:40] <Ronald> llama_: so no errors.... I have to run though, already a bit late.
[08:40] <llama_> oddalot, all, I am also interested in knowing that, am considering buying one for using build in cam soon.
[08:40] <TeamColtra[NADC]> I would assume that it would depend odd
[08:40] <Ronald> llama_: however ikonia has the knowledge to help you for sure ;)
[08:40] <llama_> Ronald, well, thanks for all the help anyways. Another time, I guess.
[08:40] <llama_> ikonia, care to help?
[08:40] <ikonia> huh, did someone call ?
[08:40] <ikonia> llama_: what's up ?
[08:40] <dualblader> Hello. I have a problem with the nvidia drivers. I have installed the new, old and legacy drivers. But my PC doesent work realy good. I want my screen resolutin to be 1280x1024, but it still 800x600.
[08:40] <oddalot> it would suck to get a laptop with built in cam, and it doesn't work with ubuntu
[08:40] <ikonia> oddalot: check it's supported then
[08:41] <Ronald> ikonia: vrefresh/hsync issue in his xorg.conf on old laptop
[08:41] <ikonia> dualblader: having multiple versions of that package is not good
[08:41] <ikonia> Ronald: ooh, super
[08:41] <TeamColtra[NADC]> 1280 X 1024 + Ubuntu = Not Fun
[08:41] <ikonia> TeamColtra[NADC]: nonsense
[08:41] <dualblader> ikonia: I installed and uninstalled.
[08:41] <TeamColtra[NADC]> In my experiance ubuntu isn't a fan
[08:41] <llama_> ikonia: I'm trying to rewrite xorg.conf; right now, I'm either in 640x480 display, though my desktop size is at the proper 1024x768; I have to use the mouse to scroll to the sides.
[08:41] <oddalot> i've never had a laptop, what do you think is important...battery life...screen size?? etc etc..
[08:41] <Seven_Six_Two> I use 1680x1050 and it's great
[08:41] <Ronald> ikonia: x doesn't detect his monitor capabilities, so defaults do th 640x480@75/800x600@56 type
[08:41] <ikonia> Ronald: danke
[08:42] <ikonia> dualblader: ok, so what card do you have
[08:42] <oddalot> i am running 1280x1024 right now and it's fine
[08:42] <TeamColtra[NADC]> oddalot, all of the above
[08:42] <llama_> Ronald, thanks yet again.
[08:42] <ikonia> llama_: what resolution are you actually after
[08:42] <dualblader> ikonia: i have a Nvidia NX7600GS
[08:42] <fructose> I just installed windows on a
[08:42] <fructose> Doh
[08:42] <llama_> 1024x768, ikonia
[08:42] <ikonia> dualblader: 7600 is nvidia-legacy new
[08:42] <oddalot> no...i mean...what is the most important aspect for a laptop?
[08:42] <TeamColtra[NADC]> (I am also currently running 1280 X 1024 but it wasn't simple to make perfect)
[08:42] <Seven_Six_Two> dualblader, i have 6800gt
[08:42] <TeamColtra[NADC]> It really depends on you
[08:42] <llama_> oddalot, depends on what you want to do.
[08:42] <ikonia> llama_: ok and what card are you using
[08:42] <oddalot> i want to kick ass
[08:43] <TeamColtra[NADC]> Do you want a powerful machine? Than you will sacrafice battery life
[08:43] <errpt> my ubuntu boot slowly , about 3 min till I can use it . Anyone have the same experience ?
[08:43] <ikonia> oddalot: thats personal to you, and something this channel can not help you with
[08:43] <llama_> oddalot, I would say ram, videocard, drive capabilities, reliability.
[08:43] <dualblader> ikonia: but i installed the legacy drivers and my PC crashed. It had to run on low-grafics.
[08:43] <ikonia> dualblader: remove it and use nvidia-glx-new
[08:43] <TeamColtra[NADC]> But if you want a clear cut answer for you (just to prove ikonia wrong ;) ) battery life
[08:43] <TeamColtra[NADC]> ;)
[08:43] <oddalot> depends...i want to code a lot...but i also will probably watch movies or play games...but rarely
[08:43] <fructose> I just installed Windows on disk 0 on my computer and apparently that's where the Linux bootloader was installed. Now it's gone and even if I disable disk 0, I can't boot to disk 1, where Ubuntu is installed. What's the quickest solution? Can I just use the Windows bootloader? If so, how?
[08:43] <llama_> ikonia, some simple one, I don't really have card issues. It's an older hp laptop, from 1999- 4megs of memory, nothing fancy, should run with generic drivers.
[08:43] <ikonia> TeamColtra[NADC]: just to prove me wrong ? this is a support channel, it's not something this channel deals with
[08:44] <dualblader> ikonia: i installed that too, it doesen't work, i still have 800x600
[08:44] <ikonia> llama_: but which generic deiver
[08:44] <TeamColtra[NADC]> I would look at the battery life to power "ratio"
[08:44] <unimatrix9> !grub
[08:44] <ikonia> llama_: driver
[08:44] <ikonia> dualblader: I know - but we can help you through that
[08:44] <fructose> unimatrix9: Thanks, I'll take a look.
[08:44] <TeamColtra[NADC]> those are the two key parts of a laptop for the uses you talk about
[08:45] <llama_> ikonia, I wouldn't know, I know very little about drivers... didn't know there were several. Not aware of the mechanisms that select which one is apropriate, if indeed such mechanisms exist?
[08:45] <dualblader> ikonia: ok, i will install trough envy the newest drivers 4 my grafic card
[08:45] <TeamColtra[NADC]> and ikonia, I was playing (ie the wink)
[08:45] <ikonia> llama_: thats fine- what video card are you using
[08:45] <ikonia> dualblader: no
[08:45] <oddalot> is this wxga screen really big enough, it's only like 800 height
[08:45] <ikonia> dualblader: I didn't say use envy
[08:45] <ikonia> dualblader: I said install the nvidia-glx-new package
[08:45] <dualblader> ikonia: ok
[08:45] <ikonia> dualblader: have you used envy on that laptop before ?
[08:46] <llama_> ikonia, trying to find. one moment.
[08:46] <dualblader> ikonia: sorry ikonia, i use a workstation
[08:46] <ikonia> llama_: no problem
[08:46] <ikonia> dualblader:  ???? how is that relevant ?
[08:46] <ikonia> dualblader: are you reading the questions I am asking you before you respond ?
[08:46] <kryptonite> omg
[08:46] <kryptonite> lolz
[08:46] <llama_> ikonia: (it's very distressing trying to wield firefox in 640x480)...
[08:46] <ikonia> kryptonite: what ?
[08:46] <dualblader> ikonia: dualblader: have you used envy on that laptop before ?
[08:46] <fructose> So, it found stage1 on (hd1, 4). I take it should do > root (hd1,4), but then do I do > setup (hd0) or use hd1? (I thought the bootloader always went on disk 0)
[08:46] <dualblader> ikonia
[08:46] <ikonia> dualblader: ok - have you used envy on that "machine" before
[08:47] <ikonia> fructose: boot loader goes where you want it to
[08:47] <dualblader> ikonia: yes, but in 7.04
[08:47] <kryptonite> nvm
[08:47] <kryptonite> -_-
[08:47] <Sortudo> Some one could help me with my PCMCIA Wireless Modem, it is hanging up so many times :(
[08:47] <ikonia> dualblader: ughhh, "in the course of your trouble shooting have you used envy on this current machine to attempt to solve the problem"
[08:47] <breedingh8> tritium : thanks.
[08:47] <fructose> ikonia: But I thought the machine always checked the MBR of disk 0
[08:47] <tritium> breedingh8: no problem
[08:47] <ikonia> fructose: it does but your doing "setup" in the grub shell, so thats your choice

[08:48] <Sortudo> hello ikonia, you helped me once, do you remember?
[08:48] <fructose> ikonia: Umm, I didn't understand what you meant.
[08:48] <ikonia> dualblader: you are currently having a problem, in an attempt to resolve that problem hav eyou used envy so far in your troubleshooting
[08:48] <ikonia> llama_: what model laptop is it
[08:48] <dualblader> ikonia: no
[08:48] <behiimehii> Everything looks really funky under the 1280x800 resolution, is there a way to make it look right? :/
[08:48] <ikonia> Sortudo: apologies I don't
[08:48] <nakedgoat> someone shoot me a problem, I'm game :)
[08:48] <ikonia> dualblader: ok - thats great.

[08:49] <behiimehii> Anyone?:/
[08:49] <llama_> ikonia, does ta mean thanks?
[08:49] <Starnestommy> behiimehii: what do you mean by "funky"?
[08:49] <ikonia> behiimehii: define funky
[08:49] <ikonia> llama_: sure
[08:49] <dualblader> ikonia: done
[08:49] <ikonia> dualblader: ok - reboot for me please.
[08:49] <nakedgoat> xiliu : create a new user.
[08:50] <dualblader> ikonia: ok
[08:50] <behiimehii> Um, best I can describe it that everything looks all squished together
[08:50] <ikonia> llama_: can you pastebin the output of "lspci" please
[08:50] <xiliu> create a new user??
[08:50] <oddalot> is this a good laptop for the money:   http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/HP-Pavilion-dv9812us-17-Widescreen-Entertainment-Laptop-DV9812US/sem/rpsm/oid/207716/catOid/-12963/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do         ?
[08:50] <nakedgoat> yes
[08:50] <xiliu> what new user?

[08:50] <llama_> ikonia, this line? 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Silicon Motion, Inc. SM710 LynxEM (rev a3)
[08:50] <ikonia> oddalot: stop asking
[08:50] <xiliu> nakedgoat: could u give me more details?
[08:50] <ikonia> oddalot: this chanel is for ubuntu support only
[08:50] <nakedgoat> xiliu : for real? create a new user see if u still get the error if u do let me know
[08:50] <ikonia> llama_: perfect
[08:51] <oddalot> that laptop is going to support my ubuntu use
[08:51] <oddalot> potentially...
[08:51] <ikonia> oddalot: asking for value for money comments is nothing to do with ubuntu
[08:51] <ikonia> oddalot: please stop
[08:51] <xiliu> I dont understand what u mean
[08:51] <ikonia> llama_: ok cool, two choices, 1.) use the vesa gneric drivers 2.) try to fight with the Silicon Image evil drivers - your call
[08:51] <nakedgoat> go to system > prefs and usersw
[08:51] <dualblader> ikonia: done
[08:51] <xiliu> is any relation of this error with new user??
[08:51] <Rat409>  /cl
[08:52] <nakedgoat> xiliu : then create like a new user!
[08:52] <oddalot> yes it does...if i get a bad laptop that doesn't support ubuntu i will have to ask more questions in here...therefore it IS ubuntu support question
[08:52] <behiimehii> So is there a way to make everything looks as it should under that resolution?
[08:52] <TeamColtra[NADC]> Ikonia, what does it matter?
[08:52] <nakedgoat> log out or ctrl+alt+bckspace
[08:52] <llama_> ikonia, this laptop has worked fine with 6.10 & 7.10, and even a botched 8.04 before, and I neve rhad driver issues, so I imagine the vesa drivers should work fine.
[08:52] <ikonia> dualblader: great, so the current status is nvidia-glx-new installed, booted and your resolution is poor ?
[08:52] <TeamColtra[NADC]> He is not impeading the help of other members
[08:52] <Starnestommy> behiimehii: check your dpi settings
[08:52] <xiliu> I dont know what u mean
[08:52] <xiliu> Error: Unable to initialize gtk, is DISPLAY set properly?
[08:52] <dualblader> ikonia: yes
[08:52] <ikonia> TeamColtra[NADC]: it's the channel policy - it matters
[08:52] <TeamColtra[NADC]> He wants a good laptop to run UBUNTU in
[08:52] <behiimehii> Starnestommy how would I go about doing that, and what should I be looking for/
[08:52] <ikonia> llama_: perfect
[08:52] <xiliu> HI, anyone know this problem: Error: Unable to initialize gtk, is DISPLAY set properly?
[08:52] <ikonia> TeamColtra[NADC]: doesn't matter
[08:52] <nakedgoat> xiliu : u know system
[08:53] <xiliu> sure
[08:53] <xiliu> i know
[08:53] <nakedgoat> xiliu : them pref
[08:53] <Starnestommy> xiliu: what is producing that error?
[08:53] <TeamColtra[NADC]> However, My question is, where do you find the desktop background images
[08:53] <TeamColtra[NADC]> (the default ones)
[08:53] <xiliu> pgadmin3
[08:53] <oddalot> nevermind...i'm switching to BSD   those guys really know freedome
[08:53] <oddalot> -e
[08:53] <nakedgoat> ok u log into ur ubunut with what username?
[08:53] <llama_> TeamColtra[NADC], there are varying philosophies on how offtopic one should let any online discussing in a specified setting get. This channel happens to be rather strict, and so offtopic chat is strongly discouraged. It's just the nature of the beast here. It's very busy, it can't afford any discussion that distracts from its intended purpose.
[08:54] <ikonia> dualblader: can you show me the output of "lsmod | grep -i nvidia" please
[08:54] <nakedgoat> I'm saying go to system > prefs > users create a new user log in, see if u have the same issue
[08:54] <Starnestommy> behiimehii: system > preferences > appearance > fonts > details... > Resolution
[08:54] <dualblader> ikonia: shore
[08:54] <TeamColtra[NADC]> I have seen this room MUCH more off topic
[08:54] <nakedgoat> I'll brb
[08:54] <nakedgoat> afk
[08:54] <ikonia> llama_: just reading your thread to walk through your current config....be with you in a minute
[08:54] <Starnestommy> behiimehii: the "dots per inch" is your DPI setting
[08:54] <oddalot> lol just kidding bsd sucks
[08:54] <TeamColtra[NADC]> the simple debating back and forth on whats topical and not is a simple example.. it could have been avoided by just answering the mans question
[08:54] <ikonia> oddalot: stop wasting peoples time, and stop messing around with poor jokes
[08:54] <dualblader> ikonia: nothing happens
[08:55] <Flynsarmy> Why do i have 3 diff kernels in my grub menu?
[08:55] <llama_> TeamColtra[NADC], that doesn't justify it being offtopic now, though. That's a very simple logical fallacy.
[08:55] <behiimehii> Hm... may I ask what your is set to? I have mine at 96
[08:55] <oddalot> sorry...
[08:55] <ikonia> TeamColtra[NADC]: the question was answered, and the dicussion kept going - please take it to #ubuntu-ops if you don't like the policy
[08:55] <ikonia> dualblader: perfect, as I suspected that is your problem
[08:55] <ikonia> dualblader: please "sudo modprobe nvidia" you should get a warning/error
[08:55] <nakedgoat> btk
[08:55] <dualblader> ikonia: nothing happens
[08:55] <exorio> hello
[08:56] <ikonia> dualblader: ooh really, thats a surprise, please try "lsmod | grep -i nvidia" again please.
[08:56] <TeamColtra[NADC]> I am not to concerned with it... I just think instead of bitching you could have just said "looks good, but thats the last laptop question i will answer, if you would like more help you can querry one of us or go to a channel that is specializing in this"
[08:56] <dino_> nakedgoat, too lazy to say back?
[08:56] <dualblader> ikonia: lsmod | grep -i nvidia works now
[08:56] <Xcell> Halp!!!..My Ubuntu Works 2 Good......Halp!!!
[08:56] <nakedgoat> dino_ : yes
[08:56] <TeamColtra[NADC]> However, still wondering where I find the default background images
[08:56] <Xcell> lol
[08:56] <ikonia> dualblader: now that is a surprise. Please do Ctral+alt+backspace to restart X
[08:56] <dualblader> xcell: please calm yourself
[08:56] <exorio> can ubuntu do autologin?
[08:56] <Xcell> ok
[08:57] <exorio> I only use 1 user
[08:57] <dino_> lol halp
[08:57] <ikonia> TeamColtra[NADC]: there are some packages in the repo called things like "ubunut-desktop-backgrounds"
[08:57] <exorio> but how to differ administration password from user?
[08:57] <nakedgoat> dino_ : | channels : #ubuntu #freeradius #squid
[08:57] <ikonia> TeamColtra[NADC]: maybe ubuntu-desktop-wallpaper
[08:57] <TeamColtra[NADC]> ... I am looking for the image of the new background that we have
[08:57] <nakedgoat> whats freeradius?
[08:57] <Rat409>  /part
[08:57] <Xcell> man.. what a nic.. dualblader
[08:57] <TeamColtra[NADC]> umm the colourful bird picture
[08:57] <ikonia> nakedgoat: an open radius implimentation
[08:58] <nakedgoat> ikonia : thanks but i was asking dino ;)
[08:58] <dino_> nakedgoat is a stalker
[08:58] <jan__> hi.
[08:58] <ikonia> nakedgoat: you have the answer
[08:58] <nakedgoat> dino_ someone took dino
[08:58] <nakedgoat> I know the answer
[08:58] <Sortudo> Please! someone could help me to analize my wireless PCMCIA modem, becose it have contantily hangup ;(
[08:58] <Flynsarmy> If automatic updates installs a new kernel, the old one isn't removed? My grub now has 2.6.24-16, 2.4.24-17 and 2.4.24-18 generic and recovery. Is this supposed to happen?
[08:58] <jan__> my X is realy slow, how do i improve its performance?
[08:59] <nakedgoat> dino_ : why don't u try helping someone other than f-n with me?
[08:59] <llama_> ikonia, nudge. ;)
[08:59] <ikonia> llama_: could you pastebin your current /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:59] <llama_> ikonia, sure.
[08:59] <ikonia> llama_: could see it in your forum post
[08:59] <ikonia> couldn't
[08:59] <dino_> i have a final exam... im studying already
[09:00] <nakedgoat> here's a puzzle for u E_T A D_CK!
[09:00] <ikonia> nakedgoat: please stop messing around
[09:00] <ikonia> nakedgoat: the channel is busy as you can see
[09:00] <nakedgoat> ikonia : k sorryh
[09:00] <nakedgoat> I will help anyone, who's up
[09:00] <dualblader> ikonia: Done
[09:00] <ikonia> dualblader: how you looking ??
[09:01] <llama_> ikonia http://paste.ubuntu.com/18289/
[09:01] <dualblader> ikonia: badder
[09:01] <ikonia> dualblader: ahh, ok, not the end of the world yet
[09:01] <dualblader> ikonia: 640x480
[09:01] <ikonia> llama_: thanks
[09:01] <maxibuntu> how can i enable sound, i run hardy without X
[09:01] <Seven_Six_Two> Sortudo, you're too vague
[09:01] <nakedgoat> dualblader : ur video card drivers arn't installed properly
[09:01] <ikonia> dualblader: just double check with "lsmod | grep -i nvidia" please.
[09:02] <maxibuntu> my mplayer runs but no sound
[09:02] <dualblader> ikonia: lsmod | grep -i nvidia - works
[09:02] <maxibuntu> do i have to install any codecs ?
[09:02] <llama_> ikonia, np... and take your time, you're practically being superhuman helping all these people at once.
[09:02] <ikonia> dualblader: ok, thats a solid start, so in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file you will see a section saying Identifier      "Configured Video Device"
[09:02] <behiimehii> What's a good DPI to set?
[09:02] <ikonia> dualblader: in the line under that add driver "nvidia" please
[09:02] <nakedgoat> maxibuntu : use VLC
[09:02] <nakedgoat> ;)
[09:02] <Seven_Six_Two> behiimehii, 72
[09:03] <behiimehii> Thank you
[09:03] <nakedgoat> I can walk u thru setting up sound for mplayer
[09:03] <ikonia> llama_: about to say the same advice to you - in the line under "Configured Video Driver" - add the line Driver "vesa"
[09:03] <nakedgoat> vlc rox :)
[09:03] <maxibuntu> nakedgoat: does vlc run without X
[09:03] <Seven_Six_Two> vesa for an nvidia card?
[09:03] <nakedgoat> maxibuntu : without x? no
[09:04] <nakedgoat> mplayer does
[09:04] <nakedgoat> ?
[09:04] <dualblader> ikonia: there is already driver "nvidia" under the other one
[09:04] <ikonia> dualblader: ooh really.
[09:04] <maxibuntu> nakedgoat: i do not have X in here
[09:04] <ikonia> dualblader: have you got nvidia-settings installed ?
[09:04] <nakedgoat> maxibuntu : lol server?
[09:04] <dualblader> ikonia: yes...
[09:04] <llama_> ikonia, there is no section "configured video driver", did you mean "configured video device"?
[09:04] <ikonia> dualblader: how does your X session respond to that
[09:04] <ikonia> llama_: yes, sorry, typo
[09:05] <maxibuntu> nakedgoat: yup, i use server image
[09:05] <nakedgoat> maxibuntu : i can't help with server sorry
[09:05] <ikonia> nakedgoat: server is the same base as desktop
[09:05] <nakedgoat> it's server lol
[09:05] <nakedgoat> sounds no need
[09:05] <dualblader> ikonia: first, it say'd to type sudo nvidia-xconfig in the termina, then to reboot
[09:05] <nakedgoat> ikonia : u know, but depenices are diff
[09:05] <ikonia> dualblader: ooh, thats not good
[09:05] <dualblader> ikonia: after i done that, the nvidia-settings works
[09:05] <ikonia> nakedgoat: no they are not
[09:06] <nakedgoat> ikonia : k
[09:06] <ikonia> dualblader: ahh, ok so what if you do it now with the nvidia-module loaded ?
[09:06] <ikonia> dualblader: does it ask you to reboot ?
[09:06] <nakedgoat> ikonia : then u help him, casue i can surely get sound on x86 x64
[09:06] <llama_> ikonia, to make sure I understood you properly- it should look like this, then? Section "Screen"
[09:06] <llama_> Identifier "Default Screen"
[09:06] <llama_> Device "Configured Video Device"
[09:06] <llama_> Driver "vesa"
[09:06] <llama_> Monitor "Configured Monitor"
[09:06] <FloodBot1> llama_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:06] <nakedgoat> idon't do server.
[09:06] <ikonia> llama_: spot on
[09:06] <ikonia> nakedgoat: it's the same base as desktop
[09:07] <nakedgoat> I don't run it
[09:07] <dualblader> ikonia: srry, i didn't understend what is this nvidia module, is the nvidia driver?
[09:07] <nakedgoat> so I won't be as much help
[09:07] <bullgard4> Why does Ubuntu provide 2 different folders: ~/.gnome and ~/.gnome2?
[09:07] <llama_> ikonia, so I should reboot now? ctr+alt+backspace doesn't work on my computer, that'll be what I'm in here to fix next time...
[09:07] <maxibuntu> ikonia: it's ok, no need to argue with nakedgoat :)
[09:07] <ikonia> dualblader: (when you did lsmod - thats the nvidia module that interfaces between the kernel and the nvidia driver)
[09:07] <ikonia> llama_: ok
[09:07] <elkbuntu> nakedgoat, if you do not have a genuine question, please move along, you're not contributing any value to this channel.
[09:07] <nakedgoat> I will only help with what i run and I can help with appears I need to run a server vm
[09:07] <dualblader> it worked and without rebooting
[09:07] <nakedgoat> elkbuntu : thanks
[09:08] <dualblader> ikonia: it worked and without rebooting
[09:08] <Seven_Six_Two> you should set monitor modes
[09:08] <ikonia> dualblader: ok, so thats a step forward, it now knows the module is loaded
[09:08] <ikonia> dualblader: how does it respond to changes now ?
[09:08] <nakedgoat> I ahve an idea for the server dude
[09:09] <dualblader> ikonia: my only changes are "auto"
[09:09] <nakedgoat> ikonia : sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg libxine1-ffmpeg libdvdread3
[09:09] <hbomb> hey all, my bf just installed ubuntu on my laptop and i am trying to access our NAS, i have to do something re my CIFS Credentials, but i really have no idea what that means
[09:09] <Sortudo> Please! I make a paste.bin http://paste.ubuntu.com/18291/  <> that contain, pppd debug file output, resolv.conf, ifconfig, route, lsmod etc... could you help me to analize it ?
[09:09] <ikonia> dualblader: so if you change the settings in nvidia-settings now - does it work
[09:09] <ikonia> nakedgoat: why are you telling me this ?
[09:09] <hbomb> and google well, google is um, i cant find anything
[09:09] <nakedgoat> ikonia : my bad sorry
[09:09] <Sortudo> my modem hangup every time !!!!
[09:09] <dualblader> ikonia: yes, works, but the screen rezolution is "auto"
[09:09] <ikonia> dualblader: sorry, what do you mean "auto"
[09:10] <dualblader> ikonia: i mean, 640x480
[09:10] <Seven_Six_Two> hbomb, did you try the google linux search?
[09:10] <ikonia> dualblader: can you not force the change through nvidia-settings ?
[09:10] <nakedgoat> maxibuntu : sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg libxine1-ffmpeg libdvdread3
[09:10] <dualblader> ikonia: what do you mean?
[09:10] <ikonia> dualblader: apologies, I've not got nvidia-settings on my laptop so I'm working from memory
[09:10] <dualblader> nakedgoat: !paste
[09:10] <ikonia> dualblader: there should be a setting in nvidia-settings to allow you to set the resolution
[09:10] <nakedgoat> lol
[09:10] <Sortudo> PCMCIA wirelles modem 3G evdo, Model Yiso C893 made from Quallcom.
[09:11] <Seven_Six_Two> ikonia, they have to be defined first
[09:11] <hbomb> seven_six_two hmm, i tried a google ubuntu search
[09:11] <ikonia> Seven_Six_Two: ahh, thank you
[09:11] <nakedgoat> dualblader : u mean !paste | nakedgoat
[09:11] <ikonia> Seven_Six_Two: I assume that definition is picked up from the xorg ?
[09:11] <ikonia> #samba xorg.conf sorry
[09:11] <ikonia> oops
[09:11] <ikonia> Seven_Six_Two: xorg.conf I mean
[09:11] <dualblader> ikonia: i know, but i can't change resolutin, my only alternatives are "auto"
[09:11] <ikonia> dualblader: Seven_Six_Two has just explained wh
[09:11] <ikonia> why
[09:12] <maxibuntu> nakedgoat: does mplayer needs gstreamer, aren't they for totem ?
[09:12] <nakedgoat> afk
[09:12] <dualblader> ikonia: and how i do that?
[09:12] <nakedgoat> maxibuntu : yes
[09:12] <ikonia> dualblader: just waiting for Seven_Six_Two to respond
[09:12] <nakedgoat> afk
[09:12] <ikonia> dualblader: I assume you need to define the modes in xorg.conf
[09:12] <dualblader> ikonia: looks dangerous
[09:13] <bullgard4> Why does Ubuntu provide 2 different folders: ~/.gnome and ~/.gnome2?
[09:13] <ikonia> dualblader: nah, xorg.conf modes arn't great fun, but always easy to undo. I'm concerned why your not getting a better resolution on detection though
[09:13] <Seven_Six_Two> ikonia, yeah. I can't dump it all here, but there should be a lot more to the xorg than that
[09:13] <ikonia> bullgard4: legacy packages
[09:13] <nakedgoat> back  yes it does/. if u wanna run that on a server install
[09:13] <Starnestommy> bullgard4: it's an issue with gnome
[09:13] <ikonia> Seven_Six_Two: no no, I understand that, just wanted to check it picks up the settings from xorg.conf
[09:13] <dualblader> ikonia: why does this version of ubuntu (8.04) have so many problems with the screen resolution?
[09:14] <ikonia> dualblader: to be honest, it normally doesn't.
[09:14] <bullgard4> ikonia: lagacy packages are provided in ~/.gnome?
[09:14] <ikonia> dualblader: its a big step forward with detection, hence why I 'm concerned at your poor responses
[09:14] <ikonia> bullgard4: legacy configs
[09:14] <nakedgoat> dualblader : I run on it on my dell 1501 runs awsome.
[09:14] <Starnestommy> bullgard4: some old things in gnome use it
[09:14] <bullgard4> ikonia: I see. Thank you for explaining.
[09:14] <Seven_Six_Two> I had what seemed like a virtual desktop of about 4000x2000
[09:15] <dualblader> ikonia: in 7.10 it worked pretty well, never had so many problems (only with opensuse 10.3)
[09:15] <xeer> OT: does anyone know how to turn a 96 civic using just the ignition wires? I have a white, white/black, yellow, yellow/black. I'm not sure what's ground and whats not..
[09:15] <nakedgoat> xeer : can u fix up my ford?
[09:15] <ikonia> dualblader: I'm wondering if the problem is around your monitor EDID information being advertised
[09:15] <fran> ciao
[09:15] <ikonia> xeer: off topic is not welcome here
[09:15] <ikonia> xeer: #ubuntu-offtopic is there
[09:15] <bullgard4> Starnestommy: Why is this an issue with GNOME? Please elaborate.
[09:15] <nakedgoat> #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:15] <Starnestommy> bullgard4: it's a problem in gnome, not ubuntu
[09:16] <xeer> ty ikonia
[09:16] <ikonia> dualblader: could you pastebin (it's a big file) your /var/log/Xorg.0.log in a pastebin please.
[09:16] <dualblader> ikonia: i think this too because it doesen't detect my monitor, but the compiz works
[09:16] <bullgard4> Starnestommy: Your message is so short that it is not understandable to me.
[09:16] <nakedgoat> dualblader : what is ur issue?
[09:17] <ikonia> dualblader: yes, I suspect you monitor is throwing out bad EDID info, ubuntu 8.04 rely's more on auto detection rather than hard coded config files
[09:17] <ikonia> dualblader: thats probably the reason your having more problems
[09:17] <Starnestommy> bullgard4: the reason for both ~/.gnome/ and ~/.gnome2/ existing is a problem with gnome itself, not just ubuntu
[09:17] <dualblader> ikonia: what should i do?
[09:17] <ikonia> dualblader: can you pastebin that error file for me please so I can see where it's falling down
[09:17] <dualblader> ikonia: i have a LG Flatron l1919S
[09:17] <Seven_Six_Two> dualblader, did you post your xorg.conf?
[09:17] <bullgard4> Starnestommy: Right. --  Thank you for your comments.
[09:17] <Hizaki> Is it possible to make a Pantech Wireless USB Adapter by Verizon Wireless work on Ubuntu Linux?
[09:18] <dualblader> Seven_Six_Two: Where?
[09:18] <llama_> ikonia, it woudn't load that xorg.conf file. gave me problems about multiple identifiers (line 35, which is the driver line I added)

[09:21] <AquaFox> How to get the keys for the default repos?
[09:21] <XeKtRuM> how can i mount a folder that contains spaces in fstab
[09:21] <XeKtRuM> ?
[09:21] <ikonia> dualblader: ahhh modes 800x600 at the bottom
[09:21] <jesse> !irc
[09:21] <ikonia> dualblader: remove that
[09:21] <AquaFox> I upgraded to Hardy and I get authentication errors.
[09:21] <nedaba> ふうっf
[09:21] <Starnestommy> XeKtRuM: put a \ before the space
[09:21] <Seven_Six_Two> dualblader, you need a module and serverflags section
[09:21] <Starnestommy> XeKtRuM: or put the folder name in "quotes"
[09:22] <llama_> ikonia: I had already deleted and rewritten lines from memory in the conf file I was using, so copy pasting that one wouldn't be useful- however, firefox still had the last pastebin of the xorg.conf file that I was using just before I added the "Driver "vesa"" line to it, so I added the driver line and made a new pastebin- that is here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/18296/
[09:22] <dualblader> i don't understend what to do O.o
[09:22] <ikonia> llama_: ahhh ok
[09:22] <XeKtRuM> it doesn't work, mntent complains
[09:22] <AquaFox> How to get the keys for the default repos?
[09:22] <AquaFox> I upgraded to Hardy and I get authentication errors.
[09:22] <Dickinson> hi everyone. I've just installed Ubuntu and updated it. A new kernel was installed. I want to remove old one now. How should i do it?
[09:22] <ikonia> dualblader: remove the line "Modes "800x600" from /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:22] <ikonia> dualblader: at the bottom
[09:22] <dualblader> ok
[09:23] <dualblader> ikonia: done
[09:23] <Flannel> Dickinson: Just remove the old kernel package with your favorite package manager (linux-image-[version]-generic), you should restart first (so you're running the new one), and also it's usually a good idea to keep one known good one around (in case you find some show stopper bug in the newest one)
[09:23] <ikonia> llama_: try this one http://paste.ubuntu.com/18297/
[09:23] <ikonia> dualblader: restart X

[09:24] <karl> anyone else having troubles with the medibuntu repository?
[09:24] <XeKtRuM> i had tried /media/Windows/Documents\ and\ settings/ & /media/Windows/"Documents and settings" & "/media/Windows/Document and Settings" and none of thems seems to work
[09:24] <FreeFull> Dickinson, just remove the files for the old kernel, and preferably the lines for booting it in /boot/grub/menu.lst (important, don't remove this file, just the lines concerning the kernel you want to remove)
[09:24] <Dickinson> Flannel: thanx a lot
[09:24] <Starnestommy> XeKtRuM: the whole path in "quotes"
[09:24] <Flannel> FreeFull: No, that's a bad way (tm) to do it
[09:24] <Sortudo> ikonia: may i wait for you for analize my past, with me?
[09:24] <Starnestommy> er, wait, never mind
[09:24] <AquaFox> I upgraded to Hardy and I get authentication errors.

[09:29] <askvictor> karl: I'm resolving it OK here
[09:29] <ikonia> karl: confirmed I can resolve that
[09:29] <karl> so it's a problem with the site, not me, that's what I guess I'm asking
[09:30] <askvictor> karl; hold on; might be cached - 'host' also said 'connection timed out; no servers could be reached'
[09:30] <ikonia> karl: no - it's a problem with you
[09:30] <ikonia> karl: 1 moment
[09:30] <karl> sure, and thanks

[09:31] <Flannel> Dickinson: What do you mean 'find'?  What are you trying to accomplish?
[09:31] <karl> will try again then
[09:31] <ikonia> Dickinson: or use synaptic to browse
[09:31] <Dickinson> ikonia: thank you
[09:32] <Dickinson> Flannel: just want to find every package related to my kernel
[09:32] <Dickinson> Flannel: installed of course
[09:32] <karl> ikonia, this is what has and is causing me the error ->  sudo wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/hardy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list
[09:33] <ikonia> karl: well first thing is just do this wget wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/hardy.list
[09:33] <ikonia> karl: see how that goes first

[09:33] <Sortudo> ikonia: i am connected at the seme notebook, and the same pcmcia modem card, the same ISP, but in windows, and it stay connected as long as i want
[09:34] <ikonia> Sortudo: thats frustrating.
[09:34] <Sortudo> ikonia: i have a dual boot notebook
[09:34] <ikonia> Sortudo: solving modem hang ups is a pain. Is there anything of interest in /var/log/messages ?
[09:34] <Sortudo> ikonia: kkkkk ;)
[09:35] <llama_> ikonia: everything after the Screen section was just missing. I got an "unexpected EOF" when I ran startx, and when I looked at the xorg.conf, I saw why.
[09:35] <ikonia> llama_: ughh, stupid pastebin, sorry
[09:35] <askvictor> Dickinson: if you want packages that are removable, use synaptic, go to the status section, and choose the obsolete filter.
[09:35] <karl> ikonia, hung and gave me this error -> Resolving www.medibuntu.org... failed: Name or service not known.
[09:35] <Dickinson> will my Nvidia driver crash if i load new kernel???

[09:35] <ikonia> karl: looks like your dns servers are not happy
[09:35] <aurele> salut
[09:35] <Sortudo> ikonia: do you think acpi=off could make some conflict with these pcmcia card ?
[09:35] <bazhang> !fr | aurele
[09:36] <ikonia> Sortudo: I don't see why
[09:36] <aurele> english only ?
[09:36] <karl> I am in Japan at the moment, maybe that is it
[09:36] <aurele> does any body can help me ?
[09:36] <askvictor> karl: can you resolve any other host names? try 'host packages.medibuntu.org' or 'host google.com' to start with
[09:36] <llama_> aurele, I think he was assuming you couldn't speak english. The discussion here is only for english speakers, if that is what you were asking.
[09:36] <karl> thanks, will try from the next stop
[09:36] <aurele> i try to read a dvd ...

[09:39] <ikonia> Sortudo: thats not the same
[09:39] <dynamethod> Hey, how do i remove splashy? i could never get it working, so how do i remove it and have the original splash image from boot like when you first install ubuntu?

[09:42] <askvictor> dynamethod: apt-get remove splashy, then you might need to 'dpkg-reconfigure usplash' or something

[09:44] <adammw111> ikonia: I keep getting errors saying that it can't find the domain controller, even though it's up
[09:44] <Sortudo> ikonia: i am using a new instalattio of the same O.S. the same CD, i just formated and re-installed it!
[09:44] <jeroen_> i mean my cell fone is locked i cant use an other provider and the card inside is called a sim
[09:44] <Hizaki> ?
[09:44] <inshion> :)
[09:44] <Utalcn2me> crappy_fonts, try n get libritarian fonts from gnome-look
[09:44] <ikonia> adammw111: what back end are you authorising against
[09:44] <DragonSpirit> crappy_fonts, right click on background, change desktopbackground, fonts tab, pick subpixel smoothing
[09:44] <dynamethod> askvictor seems Brasero is using up alot of resources, burning a DVD atm
[09:45] <Starnestommy> jeroen_: check to see if your provider has given you permission to unlock it in its terms and conditions first
[09:45] <ikonia> jeroen_: there are professionals to fix that, it's not really for this channel please.
[09:45] <DragonSpirit> its made for LCD screens
[09:45] <adammw111> ikonia: i'm not sure, i've just been using samba/unix users. how do i check?
[09:45] <ikonia> adammw111: how did you setup the domain
[09:45] <jeroen_> ikonia i need software :)
[09:45] <Dickinson> what's the difference between apt-get upgrade   and   aptitude full-upgrade. Should i use the last if the first refused to update some of the packages?
[09:45] <ikonia> jeroen_: there isn't any that I'm aware of on linux
[09:45] <Starnestommy> jeroen_: and this definitely sounds like a question fot another channel
[09:45] <jeroen_> ok
[09:46] <jeroen_> well i use ubuntu
[09:46] <crappy_fonts> DragonSpirit: if i do that fonts look crappier :(
[09:46] <askvictor> Dickson: yep (I use apt-get dist-upgrade my self, but I suspect that's the same as aptitue full-upgrade)
[09:46] <crappy_fonts> where do i upload screenshot?
[09:46] <ikonia> jeroen_: and ?
[09:46] <bazhang> jeroen_, but off topic here
[09:46] <adammw111> ikonia: i based it on the guide at http://www.howtoforge.com/samba_setup_ubuntu_5.10
[09:46] <DragonSpirit> crappy_fonts, while you are there you could always try picking different fonts too
[09:46] <ikonia> adammw111: ok, let me have a quick loo
[09:46] <ikonia> look
[09:46] <Dickinson> askvictor: ok. hope it won't crash)
[09:46] <kyaneos> hi
[09:47] <llama_> ikonia, did you mess with the refresh rate on that one? It was still 80x600, but totally non-legible screen stuff; everything was heavily distorted slightly diagonally.
[09:47] <llama_> 800*
[09:47] <kyaneos> how can i compile a module and install it, from the kernel tree?? please
[09:47] <DragonSpirit> crappy_fonts, coiuld try different options under the "details..." button too
[09:47] <ikonia> llama_: no, refresh stayed the same
[09:47] <ikonia> llama_: not what I expected
[09:47] <crappy_fonts> DragonSpirit: ok trying alt fonts + options. BTW I even have core fonts installed!
[09:47] <Seven_Six_Two> dynamethod, are you going to paste your menu.lst too?
[09:47] <ikonia> kyaneos: what module
[09:47] <jeroen_> not off topic.. if i would ask how to install a sweetx usb digital tv would u tell me how to install it?
[09:48] <kyaneos> ikonia: e_powersaver
[09:48] <askvictor> kyaneos: what module, and why?
[09:48] <dynamethod> Seven_Six_Two : http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=5125994&postcount=2

[09:48] <cwraig> hi all, when playing video all the colours messed up, but everything else is fine even the gnome previews are fine. It doesnt even matter which player i use (VLC Mplayer Totem etc) any ideas?
[09:48] <jeroen_> i dont want to ilegally do it
[09:48] <DragonSpirit> other then that I don't know what to say, as I am using a 22 inch LCD and the fonts look great
[09:48] <Starnestommy> jeroen_: if it violates your terms of service, it's illegal
[09:48] <ikonia> jeroen_: well, then talk the phone to where you got it and ask them to unlock it
[09:48] <llama_> ikonia: don't know how it happened.... I guess I'll change that and try again. It was still 800x600, though...
[09:48] <ikonia> llama_: thats quite frustrating
[09:48] <jeroen_> if i really wanted that i would write a program for that myself
[09:48] <bazhang> jeroen_, take this elsewhere please
[09:48] <ikonia> llama_: I'll study your config more
[09:49] <ikonia> jeroen_: ok - then write the softrware yourself

[09:52] <adammw111> if it helps my domain controller's smb.conf is at http://paste.ubuntu.com/18301/
[09:52] <ikonia> dualblader: no thats your xorg config file

[09:52] <dualblader> where do i get that?
[09:52] <ikonia> dualblader: I've told you 3 times
[09:52] <ikonia> 08:46 < ikonia> dualblader: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[09:53] <adammw111> almost all ubuntu log files are somewhere in /var/log/  :)

[09:53] <priest> where is xmms (v1) in ubuntu 8.4?
[09:53] <bazhang> priest, audacious replaced it
[09:53] <soulhacker> priest:get it sudo apt-get install xmms2
[09:53] <dynamethod> im still having this problem of software not completey being removed after a 'apt-get remove' or 'apt-get --purge remove', theres alot of files from packages being left behind, taking up space in general, how does one actually COMPLETELY remove a package?
[09:53] <soulhacker> !xmms
[09:53] <ikonia> soulhacker: xmms2 is different from xmms
[09:54] <soulhacker> !xmms|priest
[09:54] <dualblader> http://pastebin.com/d4bbcea59
[09:54] <Seven_Six_Two> dynamethod, /boot is on the 4th partition?
[09:54] <soulhacker> ikonia:sorry didnt realise the difference since have always used xmms2 only
[09:54] <ikonia> thats cool
[09:55] <ikonia> dualblader: the problem is lines 1716 to 1733
[09:55] <dynamethod> Seven_Six_Two no first, /dev/sda1
[09:56] <ikonia> dualblader: looks like it's your mointor giving out duff information
[09:56] <dynamethod> i just tried a apt-get remove splashy, and theres a whole lot of files left over, is there some magic command to remove software?
[09:56] <Starnestommy> dynamethod: use sudo apt-get remove --purge splashy
[09:56] <dualblader> ikonia: that is what we presumed
[09:56] <ikonia> dualblader: yes, log file confirms it though
[09:56] <soulhacker> dynamethod:to remove extra files use apt-get autoremove
[09:56] <dualblader> ikonia: now, what should i do?
[09:57] <cwraig> askvictor, thanks that got it opengl2 is fine
[09:57] <dualblader> ikonia: give a punch to my LG?
[09:57] <ikonia> dualblader: well, need to work out the correct settings for the monitor and hardcode them into your xorg.conf file, which is a drag

[09:57] <chwi> hello
[09:57] <dualblader> ikonia: looks hard work

[09:58] <ikonia> dualblader: let me have a quick shower and go to my desk to work this through
[09:58] <dualblader> ikonia: ok
[09:58] <ikonia> dualblader: 15 minutes and we'll go thorugh it, as this isn't a 2 minute job
[09:58] <dynamethod> Starnestommy no, does not work, have tried many times, much still left over
[09:58] <llama_> ikonia, I think I'm just going to do this the easy way and copy and xorg file from a DSL liveboot, so don't worry about it.
[09:58] <chwi> im following the kvm howto https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM . But about the network, is it better to bridge the eth0 (public ip) or to bridge to a secondary nic (fake one with dummy for example) ? It' remotly, im afraid to lost the link
[09:58] <ikonia> llama_: worth a go
[09:58] <dynamethod> Starnestommy  particularly in /etc
[09:59] <cwraig> askvictor, for some reason the X11/Xv driver is all messed up, the openGL one is fine, is there any reason that i should care enough to figure out why?
[09:59] <hiptobecubic> how can i change the logon screen resolution?
[10:00] <Seven_Six_Two> dynamethod, not according to menu.lst
[10:00] <dynamethod> Starnestommy  what?
[10:00] <hiptobecubic> #nvidia
[10:00] <dynamethod> !paste
[10:01] <Starnestommy> dynamethod: I'm confused
[10:01] <dynamethod> Starnestommy forget about the menu.lst, im trying to uninstall splashy, never worked probably never will for me
[10:01] <Starnestommy> dynamethod: are you trying to talk to me or Seven_Six_Two ?
[10:01] <behiimehii> Starnestommy: what is your DPI set to?
[10:02] <behiimehii> Er, PDI
[10:02] <dynamethod> damnit sorry im getting confused too
[10:02] <hiptobecubic> how can i find  out at the terminal what kernal i'm using
[10:02] <Starnestommy> behiimehii: 96
[10:02] <Starnestommy> hiptobecubic: uname -r
[10:02] <mnemo> hiphophippo: use "uname -a"
[10:02] <dynamethod> who was i talking to?
[10:02] <Seven_Six_Two> dynamethod, I thought you wanted to get it working
[10:02] <dynamethod> Seven_Six_Two yeah but its not going to happen i think
[10:02] <hiptobecubic> thanks
[10:03] <dynamethod> Seven_Six_Two ive tried alsorts of things
[10:03] <Seven_Six_Two> dynamethod, ok. I think you're just choosing the wrong partition to load it from in the menu.lst
[10:03] <behiimehii> Starnestommy: and does the resolution look ok to you, or is it odd-looking?
[10:03] <Starnestommy> behiimehii: it looks OK for me
[10:03] <behiimehii> Because that's what I have mine set up to, and it looks horrible
[10:03] <Starnestommy> behiimehii: I have 1440x900
[10:03] <ripps> Is there a command line program that operates like nm-applet, for easy wifi connecting while in Recovery Mode or something.
[10:04] <Starnestommy> behiimehii: so you may need something bigger for the DPI
[10:04] <behiimehii> Ah, that'd explain it.  What would you suggest for 1280x800?
[10:04] <behiimehii> I've been messing with it, but nothing really seems to help :/
[10:04] <Kyle__> !recoverymode
[10:04] <Kyle__> damn
[10:04] <dynamethod> Seven_Six_Two i dont know anymore, mission aborted
[10:04] <mnemo> dynamethod: what was your problem?
[10:05] <Kyle__> ripps: recover mode a euphamism for single user mode or something?
[10:05] <tritium> ripps: iwconfig
[10:05] <dynamethod> mnemo getting splashy to work, couldnt do it
[10:05] <dynamethod> mneom oh and removing software
[10:05] <ripps> tritium: I know about iwconfig, but it's just to confusing to setup. I was hoping there was something that could do it all automatically like nm-applet does.
[10:06] <dynamethod> that one is really getting to me now
[10:06] <Joshyboy> hey
[10:06] <dynamethod> apt-get --purge remove does not remove everything related to the package im trying to remove, taking up more space, unecessarily
[10:06] <Joshyboy> anyone ever got an e-mail from<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[10:06] <dynamethod> it removes the /bin files or w/e
[10:06] <dynamethod> but everything else related to the package remains in /etc
[10:07] <Starnestommy> dynamethod: it should remove anything that came with the package
[10:07] <B_> it's apt-get remove --p[urge packagename
[10:07] <Kyle__> Joshyboy: haha what
[10:07] <Joshyboy> I got an e-mail from<EMAIL_ADDRESS>today
[10:07] <Sortudo> ikonia: i am exausted, thaks for your help, i will try it tomoow, bye bye
[10:07] <Joshyboy> but I'm pretty certain it's fake
[10:07] <dynamethod> B_ ive heard, apt-get remove --purge, and apt-get --purge remove
[10:07] <Kyle__> yea, fbi cant really threaten people
[10:08] <Joshyboy> I know
[10:08] <dynamethod> but either way, nothing is fully removed
[10:08] <Kyle__> Joshyboy: whats the email asking for?
[10:08] <B_> dynamethod: --purge rwemove package
[10:08] <dynamethod> orly
[10:08] <Kyle__> Joshyboy: give me your porn. love, fbi
[10:08] <Joshyboy> "Hello Joshua. We have been informed that you have pirated large amounts of software and request that you delete it off of your system immediately. Failure to do so will lead to criminal charges, and you will be taken to court and tried as an adult. You have three (3) days to delete all pirated software.
[10:08] <dynamethod> lets have a look at what i get then eh
[10:08] <Kyle__> hahahaha
[10:08] <dynamethod> ill paste this, cause i dont think people really believe me here
[10:08] <dynamethod> !paste
[10:08] <B_> don't paste
[10:08] <B_> use pastebin
[10:08] <behiimehii> What would be the suggested DPI for 1280x800 resolution?
[10:09] <Starnestommy> Joshyboy: sounds fake
[10:09] <Kyle__> Joshyboy: look at the originating IP
[10:09] <dynamethod> hence the !paste
[10:09] <Joshyboy> how do I do that?
[10:09] <B_> ask ompaul
[10:09] <Kyle__> look at the headers/"original mail"
[10:09] <Lagbolt> does ssl network extender work in hardy heron? works for me in fiesty and gusty but not in hardy.
[10:09] <Starnestommy> Joshyboy: I would delete any pirated material that you have just to be safe, though
[10:09] <Joshyboy> yeah it's fake
[10:09] <dynamethod> grrrrrrrrrr
[10:10] <Joshyboy> I just saw something in the Details
[10:10] <Joshyboy> Received: from <IP_ADDRESS> (IP may be forged by CGI script)
[10:10] <dynamethod> i cant believe this
[10:10] <B_> lol
[10:10] <dynamethod> sigh
[10:10] <Joshyboy> also it filtered straight to my junk mail
[10:10] <Kyle__> Joshyboy: the way you look at it is to track it back
[10:10] <ferronica> i need help
[10:11] <Joshyboy> I replied to it and it said it didn't exist
[10:11] <Joshyboy> hence why I don't think it's real :P
[10:11] <Kyle__> oh
[10:11] <Kyle__> thats the dumb way
[10:11] <Starnestommy> Joshyboy: that IP appears to be owned by verizon

[10:12] <Kyle__> Joshyboy: so, no
[10:12] <Seven_Six_Two> fibre optic service
[10:12] <Joshyboy> yeah what do they do

[10:12] <Seven_Six_Two> ferronica, what isn't working properly? won't boot?
[10:13] <Starnestommy> dynamethod: that may be a broken package
[10:13] <dynamethod> B_
 hence why I don't think it's real :P
[10:13] <dynamethod> * [Orc]Khsu has quit ("Leaving")
 oh
[10:13] <FloodBot1> dynamethod: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:13] <dynamethod> damnit
[10:13] <Kyle__> lolol
[10:13] <Joshyboy> Kyle__: does that mean it's fake?
[10:13] <chelz> does anyone have a note-organizing or personal information manager program that they recommend?
[10:13] <dynamethod> broken package, how do i fix this i followed the instructions provided by bash
[10:13] <Kyle__> Joshyboy: we figured out that its fake from the wording
[10:13] <ferronica> Seven_Six_Two: it boots but firfox google serach toolbar, session, compiz theme dont work
[10:13] <Seven_Six_Two> fios is for tv and phone too
[10:13] <Kyle__> im just trying to figure out if its someone you know
[10:13] <Joshyboy> well
[10:14] <Joshyboy> I once had a warez site
[10:14] <Seven_Six_Two> ferronica, have you tried a different theme?
[10:14] <ferronica> Seven_Six_Two: emerald theme color faded
[10:14] <Kyle__> if someone sent me a fake fbi email I'd respond direct to them
[10:14] <dynamethod> and this has done nothing
[10:14] <ferronica> Seven_Six_Two: yes
[10:14] <ferronica> Seven_Six_Two: no one worked
[10:14] <Seven_Six_Two> ferronica, firefox doesn't play nice with some theming. some sites for me don
[10:14] <Kyle__> Joshyboy: if the statutes of limitations haven't ran out stoofoo ;)
[10:14] <Seven_Six_Two> don't honour the theme's colour requests
[10:15] <Joshyboy> :P
[10:15] <Joshyboy> I'm happy just as long as it's fake
[10:15] <ferronica> Seven_Six_Two: i am talking about google search toolbar in right hand side
[10:15] <dynamethod> anyone? = http://paste.ubuntu.com/18305/
[10:15] <Seven_Six_Two> ferronica, can you not place the cursor in the box?
[10:15] <ferronica> Seven_Six_Two: when i click to search nothing
[10:15] <Joshyboy> btw would they say tried as an adult or trialed as an adult?
[10:15] <Starnestommy> Joshyboy: tried as an adult
[10:16] <Joshyboy> kk so the person knows their grammar
[10:16] <ferronica> Seven_Six_Two: i place and hit enter
[10:16] <Joshyboy> unlike me :D
[10:16] <Kyle__> dynamethod: whats splashy?
[10:16] <Starnestommy> dynamethod: /etc/splashy/config.xml is probably incorrectly configured
[10:16] <ferronica> Seven_Six_Two: even go back page icon not working
[10:16] <dynamethod> well thats what im tolled, how do i actually fix the package though?
[10:16] <Starnestommy> dynamethod: you need to fix that file somehow
[10:16] <dynamethod> Kyle_ splashy is a piece of software not worth the hassle
[10:17] <Seven_Six_Two> ferronica, is it firefox 3?
[10:17] <Joshyboy> hmm
[10:17] <Twigathy> Joshyboy: "Delete it off your system" - yay fake \o/
[10:17] <ferronica> Seven_Six_Two: yes
[10:17] <Joshyboy> I should get back to devloping my forum software
[10:17] <Joshyboy> haven't touched that in ages
[10:17] <ferronica> Seven_Six_Two: after booting to load theme took 2 miniutes
[10:17] <Joshyboy> Twigathy: I'm actually really relieved that it's fake cause I was like shittin my self for about five minutes
[10:17] <dualblader> Hey! I have a problem with my LG Flatron L1919S. It seems that is not detected by Ubuntu 8.04. How do isolve this problem?

[10:25] <ferronica> Seven_Six_Two: because "session" not working
[10:25] <DistroJockey> orgthingy: man wvdial
[10:25] <Seven_Six_Two> ferronica, a 64MB video card is a bit lightweight for compiz I think
[10:25] <Starnestommy> orgthingy: try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[10:25] <orgthingy> thanks
[10:25] <ferronica> Seven_Six_Two: mine is 256mb

[10:26] <ferronica> Seven_Six_Two: with windows works fine
[10:26] <dynamethod> HymnToLife still having problems, posted on thread
[10:26] <ferronica> Seven_Six_Two: why "session" not working
[10:27] <Seven_Six_Two> ferronica, yeah, but it's probably how it interacts with compiz. what session?
[10:27] <dynamethod> my package manager is stuffed sigh
[10:27] <ferronica> Seven_Six_Two: system - administration - session
[10:27] <HymnToLife> dynamethod: well, I know nothing about this program you're trying to install, so you'll have to wait for someone else
[10:27] <dynamethod> ok
[10:28] <ferronica> Seven_Six_Two: system - preferences - session
[10:28] <ferronica> Seven_Six_Two: sory
[10:28] <ferronica> Seven_Six_Two: when i click on session doesnt work

[10:32] <Seven_Six_Two> dualblader, with your xorg problem?
[10:32] <dualblader> Seven_Six_Two: Is not the problem that... Read this:
[10:32] <dynamethod> sudo dpkg --configure -a hangs, and starts using up all the machines resources, this is nuts
[10:32] <dualblader> Hey! I have a problem with my LG Flatron L1919S. It seems that is not detected by Ubuntu 8.04. How do isolve this problem?
[10:33] <arup_> hey, anyone there, please tell me how can I connect my Nokia N70 to my Ubuntu PC
[10:33] <DistroJockey> dualblader: I'd solve it by getting a better monitor
[10:33] <dualblader> Seven_Six_Two: Did you read?
[10:33] <Seven_Six_Two> dualblader, yes, I saw that. you need to manually put the info in the xorg.conf
[10:34] <dualblader> Seven_Six_Two: How i do that?
[10:34] <llama_> ikonia, I wasn't able to find xorg.conf in /etc/X11... and google didn't show anything that helped with that. wtf? Also, do you know anything about xrandr? I can't figure out how to use it to actually configure anything, just to give me information...
[10:34] <arup_> The CD does not contain other than windows system
[10:34] <llama_> ikonia: I meant I wasn't able to find it there while running DSL...
[10:34] <dualblader> DistroJockey: Sorry for yourself, but this monitor is a good one, not trash...
[10:34] <Seven_Six_Two> I have an LG flatron L226wt

[10:37] <dynamethod> its still hanging btw
[10:37] <Starnestommy> janice8951: what about a home network with a server?
[10:38] <anto> My audio keeps crashing in Hardy :/
[10:38] <dynamethod> omfg i just realized, my entire HD is used up, no wonder its having a fit
[10:38] <daritter> dynamethod: obviously, therse missing a file for splashy
[10:38] <janice8951> Starnestommy: do you know how to setup one?
[10:38] <Seven_Six_Two> dualblader, use mine as a template:   http://paste.ubuntu.com/18309/     but keep in mind I have a 6800, 22"monitor, svideo tv, mouse, kb, trackball and a drawing tablet
[10:39] <Starnestommy> janice8951: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[10:39] <janice8951> I sure hope that helps
[10:40] <dynamethod> daritter i know i know i know i know about that stupid file, but thats not the problem anymore
[10:40] <kikkertje> Hi, I'm was trying to install IntelliJ IDEA but when I run the sh-script, i get an error:exec: 61: /bin/java: not found
[10:40] <janice8951> What is that Starnestommy?
[10:40] <Seven_Six_Two> kikkertje, install java
[10:40] <janice8951> That would have been helpful. You shouldn't just blindly point someone to a website and not tell them about it.,
[10:40] <Starnestommy> janice8951: that's a page on how to set up the apache webserver with mysql and php
[10:41] <janice8951> Starnestommy: I haven't any idea what those things are.
[10:41] <Starnestommy> janice8951: they're used for making websites
[10:41] <kikkertje> Seven_Six_Two, i have allready installed the java package
[10:41] <janice8951> I don't want a bloody webserver. I need a home network
[10:41] <Seven_Six_Two> janice8951, you want file sharing?
[10:41] <Starnestommy> janice8951: oh.  As in one for file sharing?  Try samba
[10:41] <janice8951> So that I can use this Machine running Kubuntu as host to store files that I can access wirelessly.
[10:42] <Dickinson> have a problem with java installation. Can't fing the plugins directory of firefox. Can anyone help?
[10:42] <janice8951> Yeah, Samba is impossible to figure out to setup.
[10:42] <Seven_Six_Two> janice8951, samba for linux-windows, nfs for linux-linux
[10:42] <janice8951> Been at this for 4 hours now.
[10:42] <zvacet> !samba | janice8951
[10:42] <janice8951> It's Linux Linux
[10:42] <Seven_Six_Two> janice8951, NFS
[10:42] <zvacet> !nfs | janice8951
[10:42] <Dickinson> have a problem with java installation. Can't find the plugins directory of firefox. Can anyone help?
[10:43] <Seven_Six_Two> janice8951, or just use fish:// in konquror or ssh at the shell
[10:43] <janice8951> Starnestommy: I have been at this for 4 hours. I still have nothing to show for it. NFS is nice and all, but I am starting from scratch, and that's pretty complex eh
[10:43] <Inounx> #kassedutux
[10:43] <dynamethod> Is it possible to partition the HD to give my Ubuntu partition more diskspace using gparted without the Live CD?
[10:43] <stooj> Don't think so dynamethod
[10:43] <Seven_Six_Two> janice8951, it's not too bad and the docs are good. you have to set your exports file on the server and add entries to the mtab on the host
[10:44] <Dickinson> have a problem with java installation. Can't find the plugins directory of firefox. Can anyone help?
[10:44] <Seven_Six_Two> janice8951, and make sure a few processes are running
[10:44] <stooj> You'd need to unmount the drive, which you're using Dynamethod
[10:45] <Seven_Six_Two> janice8951, all together there's 2 configuration lines for each partition that's shared
[10:45] <llama_> PLEASE!!! I've been working on this for over 5 hours! I just want my screen to look right! Surely this isn't that hard?  Can't find the plugins directory of firefox. Can anyone help?
[10:45] <llama_> Dickinson, about:plugins in the firefox address bar?
[10:45] <Seven_Six_Two> llama_, did you see my xorg.conf and compare it to see if you're missing something?
[10:46] <janice8951> Okay, this is not working
[10:46] <Seven_Six_Two> kikkertje, maybe make a link to the binary in your /bin directory
[10:46] <llama_> Seven_Six_Two, did I miss a link you sent me earlier or something? I don't know where I would have seen your xorg.conf, sorry.
[10:46] <rosco> Is it normal that in hardy I don't get an ATI control panel whn I install the fgrlx drivers ?
[10:46] <Dickinson> llama_: need to install java for mozilla firefox but can't find directory /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins where plugins are supposed to be
[10:47] <Seven_Six_Two> janice8951, llama_ no, but I posted it for dualblader
[10:47] <kikkertje> Seven_Six_Two, how do you mean a link?
[10:48] <Seven_Six_Two> kikkertje, a link is a reference to a file in another location like a shortcut. the command is "ln" and "man ln" shows how to use it. the java binary you have might have a version number in the binary
