[00:00] <catmando> or the other way round?
[00:00] <fallore> My firefox window is giving me a lot of trouble. When I open it is is maximized full screen (an on top of the top and bottom panel) and missing the title bar containing the minimize, maximize and close buttons. All methods of resizing it (Alt + Shift, Alt + Click, F11, etc) that I've tried thus far have failed. Can anyone help me restore my FF back to normal?
[00:00] <eternaljoy> catmando: use the 8.04 ALTERNATIVE CD
[00:00] <onetinsoldier> i should say that i fixed up the Makefile so it will compile on x86_64.. left that out
[00:00] <jabop> fallore: ie4linux
[00:00] <eternaljoy> catmando: use the 8.04 ALTERNATIVE CD and tell it to use VLM encryption during install
[00:00] <jabop> w00t
[00:00] <catmando> eternaljoy: yeah i am
[00:00] <fallore> jabop: if you're suggesting a different browser i'd rather not, thanks
[00:01] <catmando> eternaljoy: i need a specific setup
[00:01] <eternaljoy> catmando: during install... choose VLM encryption
[00:01] <eternaljoy> catmando: easy as that
[00:01] <catmando> eternaljoy: i guess it's actually a theoretical question
[00:01] <eternaljoy> catmando: you dont need anything... during install... choose VLM encryption
[00:01] <catmando> eternaljoy: it is mighty easy, but i like to know
[00:02] <eternaljoy> is there a way to install 8.10 using inode 128?   previous versions uses inode 128, but 8.10 uses inode 256!  Anyone?
[00:02] <gbear14275> does anyone know if dma is enabled by default in 8.10
[00:02] <DrUnKnMuNkY> hey. i want to remap my caps lock key to the super (win) key since i don't have one. how do i do this in intrepid?
[00:02] <anto9us> fallore, alt+f7 and alt+f8 will allow you to move and resize respectively
[00:02] <fallore> anto9us: neither of those do anything.
[00:03] <jabop> fallore: alt+click and drag will work too
[00:03] <fallore> jabop: i said that that doesn't work
[00:03] <paulo> #ubuntu-es
[00:03] <jabop> oh
[00:03] <jabop> alt+f4
[00:03] <anto9us> fallore, alt+space brings up the window menu?
[00:03] <fallore> anto9us: yes, but clicking reside or move doesn't matter
[00:04] <anto9us> fallore, are you using compiz?
[00:04] <fallore> anto9us: no
[00:04] <exodus_ms> eternaljoy, did you try man mke2fs
[00:05] <fallore> anto9us: actually, i might've been. had appearance effects on "normal" and changing it to none fixed the problem.
[00:06] <mikebeecham> is there an irc channel that I can get help with Banshee?
[00:06] <anto9us> fallore, yeah, sometimes compiz needs a restart
[00:06] <vahnx> i got a corrupt file in windows on an external drive and it doesnt delete in ubuntu. i ran windows chkdsk but didnt fix it
[00:07] <bolinec> Quick question about a mouse if someone has a chance.
[00:07] <vahnx> in ubuntu it shows up as 30mb in windows like 20 gigs
[00:07] <nnull> guys im trying to get my 64meg tnt ultra pro working on my TV, im using the nvidia legacy drivers, but whenever i try use the card on my tv, once it boots into login screen the screen is morphed and theres no mouse, and max is 60hertz.. any help?
[00:08] <vahnx> whats the ubuntu check disk command?
[00:08] <vahnx> fsck nvm
[00:08] <exodus_ms> eternaljoy, is this what you want to do --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/83224/
[00:08] <dr_willis> vahnx,  what filesystem is the external drive using?
[00:08] <bolinec> So my mouse issue: I have a sony vaio all in one (pos). It has an RF mouse and keyboard.  The Keyboard works fine, the mouse does not.  When I check /dev/inputs/event2 I see data when the buttons are clicked, but not when the mouse is moved.  Could these events be at another location?
[00:09] <dr_willis> bolinec,  could test out /dev/input/mice or other similer names.
[00:10] <bolinec> yeah, I've tried everything in the inputs dir.
[00:10] <bolinec> Evil evil sony mouse.
[00:10] <anto9us> nnull, I remember having a similar issue once, run nvidia-settings I think that has the power to resolve things for you,
[00:10] <nuts> hi, my acer aspire 5520 webcam no longer works, it was working fine when i first installed ibex.. i'm sure i have not uninstalled any cam drivers... but now all apps that uses cam gives me no cam found..
[00:10] <nnull> anto9us¬ ok cheers ill try that
[00:11] <anto9us> nuts, is the webcam enabled? try disabling/enabling and see what dmesg says about it
[00:11] <Aggrav8d> hello, everybody!    Do I need to start getting ready for DNSSEC now, or do I have to wait for TLDs to implement it first?
[00:12] <albert_fish>  http://pastebin.com/m60af6753 i tryed to set up windows because linux does not yet support my printer and now ive lost grub,following the direction available onine does not work to restore grub
[00:12] <computer> i am logged in as a regular user, what do i type in terminal to become admin(not root)? so i can apt-get update
[00:12] <anto9us> computer, sudo apt-get update
[00:12] <exodus_ms> !sudo > computer
[00:12] <nuts> anto9us, usually with cheese it turns on automatically.. i see no way to turn it on or off otherwise
[00:13] <dr_willis> computer,  'sudo apt-get update' 'sudo apt-get upgrade'    Your differeance between admin and root is.. err.. not correct
[00:13] <igorw> You guys know of any good mail archiving software?
[00:13] <chyea> hey all. is there a way to make "ls" list directories first?
[00:14] <computer> sudo apt-get update asks for the password of current user and not the admin account
[00:14] <anto9us> nuts, usually Fn and one of the F(number) keys
[00:14] <corinth> Is there a way to check the md5sum of a burned disc?
[00:14] <Pici> !verify | corinth
[00:14] <dr_willis> computer,  there is no root password..  the initial user has 'sudo' rights.. and yes it will want their password.
[00:14] <computer> user123  is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported
[00:14] <anto9us> nuts, also try ekiga, cheese doesn't work properly with my built in webcam sometimes where ekiga sees it fine
[00:14] <corinth> Thanks, Pici
[00:15] <jrib> computer: 'su - ADMIN_ACCOUNT' to login as ADMIN_ACCOUNT then
[00:15] <anto9us> computer, you're not in the admin group
[00:15] <dr_willis> computer,  I guess you could call the 'first' user you made the admin account.. but its rarely called that..
[00:15] <nuts> anto9us, ekiga also reports no cam
[00:15] <kristian1> i have to mount /dev/sdb1 to /HDD and make it remain there even if i reboot, i can't get it to work! any help is very much appreciated!
[00:16] <dr_willis> kristian1,  make a proper entry in /etc/fstab for the device.
[00:16] <nuts> anto9us, also no Fn keys to turn on/off cam
[00:16] <anto9us> nuts, it's a built in webcam?
[00:16] <catmando> erm
[00:16] <scientes> i have a feeling that ubuntu stores system time as local time which is idiotic, how can i check and change this
[00:16] <catmando> does anyone know how to pass pageup to irssi from a macbook?
[00:16] <DanaG> Windows likes it that way, so Ubuntu does it that way for compatibility.
[00:16] <nuts> anto9us, yes built in.. it worked fine when i first installed ibex.. it's an acer crystal eye cam
[00:17] <scientes> but windows can be changed easily
[00:17] <scientes> windows only did it for compadibility too
[00:17] <scientes> with dos
[00:17] <rww> catmando: Fn+Up Arrow usually works for me o.O
[00:17] <calc> scientes: i'm prety sure it asks you on install
[00:17] <dr_willis> so we are grandfathered back all the way to the stone age. :)
[00:17] <kristian1> dr_willis : that's the problem! :( i added "/dev/sdb1 /HDD ext3 defaults 0 0" to etc/fstab, and the hdd will be there, but after rebooting, it no long is used, only the main hdd is used. any thoughts?
[00:17] <anto9us> nuts, I'm guessing there should be a key combination to enable/disable then
[00:17] <albert_fish>  dr_willis can you take a look at this? ive asked a few times without getting assitence and ive noticed you are one of the more helpfull people on here over the last year+? so ifigured id ask you http://pastebin.com/m60af6753 i tryed to set up windows because linux does not yet support my printer and now ive lost grub,following the direction available onine does not work to restore grub
[00:18] <catmando> rww: yeah that's what I thought, but it's not doing it
[00:18] <catmando> rww: i wonder if going through screen is what's messing it up
[00:18] <igorw> kristian1 did you created /HDD directory?
[00:18] <calc> scientes: set it in /etc/default/rcS and then set the time like you want (i think)
[00:18] <DanaG> http://jvliet.blogspot.com/2006/10/ubuntu-system-clock-setting-for-utc.html
[00:18] <dr_willis> kristian1,  you did somthing wrong then.. or you got somthing else going on.  what do you mean by 'the main hdd' ?  also - its best to use the UUID= type nameing features that way the same hd always gets mounted to the same place.
[00:18] <DanaG> oops, lemme switch into screen.
[00:18] <storrgie> Is there a good web editor that will connect to my site using ssh?
[00:19] <storrgie> i mean server
[00:19] <kristian1> igor : yes i already made the dir
[00:19] <musikgoat|main> storrgie: gedit? :-)
[00:19] <dr_willis> kristian1,  if you add that line to fstab.. it wont 'be' there untill you reboot, or run 'sudo mount -a' or 'sudo mount /HDD'     so you need to clarify what exactly its doing I guess
[00:19] <storrgie> musikgoat|main: its a headless box, i want to edit the files over ssh
[00:20] <musikgoat|main> storrgie: yes,  create a "connect to server" connection via sftp (ssh), and then edit with gedit
[00:20] <storrgie> musikgoat|main: how do you do that? I know how to do sftp but dont know how to use it.
[00:20] <kristian1> dr_willis : will try
[00:21] <musikgoat|main> storrgie: so start with the "connect to server" and if you plan to do this alot, i recommend creating a bookmark
[00:21] <Bluebus112> Is there any way to limit the download speed when downloading updates and such on ubuntu since it uses my max and I need some for something else I'm doing
[00:21] <musikgoat|main> let me know if you get that accomplished

[00:30] <musikgoat|main> storrgie: can you link me to its site? if it exists?
[00:31] <onetinsoldier> PeterFA: i think there's an option in Firefox to check and see if it's the 'default browser'
[00:32] <onetinsoldier> PeterFA: check the Firefox preferences

[00:35] <musikgoat|main> kristian1: add the mount instructions to /etc/fstab
[00:35] <kdub> latest upgrade broke my sound. driver still works, but banshee/ff/vlc/etc cant talk to it... any help?
[00:35] <musikgoat|main> kristian1: then it will mount on boot

[00:36] <wan> i'm looking for linux-headers-<IP_ADDRESS> to compile a driver against, any idea where to get this?
[00:36] <kdub> ah, got it. the pcm channel was turned all the way down... nevermind :P
[00:36] <kristian1> musikgoat|main : i've tried that, but i cant get it to work. can you tell me excactly what to add? :)
[00:36] <musikgoat|main> kristian1: paste your fstab file
[00:36] <musikgoat|main> kristian1: i'll look it over
[00:37] <kristian1> musikgoat|main : give me a sec
[00:37] <mezquitale> kristian1, first get the UUID of your device
[00:37] <sadam> jrib: I solved it, I had to uninstall and reinstall gconf to have the schemas reinstalled ala http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?s=5a111f3b43e3cb2236bfe5d6eab438d5&t=929584&highlight=gnome-settings-demon&page=2

[00:39] <corinth> I can't figure out how to check the md5sum of a disc I just burned using md5sum in the terminal. A little help?
[00:39] <wan> Does anyone know where to find an older linux-headers version (<IP_ADDRESS>) to compile a driver against?
[00:39] <kristian1> mezquitale : UUID? :-P
[00:39] <musikgoat|main> kristian1: that doesn't show what you tried to add for your new partition
[00:40] <musikgoat|main> kristian1: what is the filesystem you chose to use for your new partition?
[00:40] <phishphood> hello?
[00:40] <gnutron> corinth: md5sum filename.iso   [smash enter] you check sums Before you burn.
[00:40] <mezquitale> kristian1,  type " ls /dev/disk/by-uuid -alh"
[00:41] <corinth> gnutron: and that will compare the md5sum of my disc? (not the ISO)
[00:41] <phishphood> anybody up to helping me with dualmonitor support?
[00:41] <kristian1> musikgoat|main : my line= "/dev/sdb1 /HDD ext2 defaults 0 0" added at the end of txt. using default gparted settings. ext2
[00:41] <gnutron> corinth: do the md5sum filename.iso if its ok, your disk should be fine.
[00:41] <musikgoat|main> kristian1: ext2 is not good for media, i remember you saying you were going to use media
[00:42] <phishphood> exit
[00:42] <musikgoat|main> *put videos/audio on the disk, right?
[00:42] <peleg> Hello! Succesfuly finished installing 7.10. Everything looks quite fine, but I have one critical bug:
[00:42] <mezquitale> kristian1, whatever points to /dev/sdb1, that is the UUID you will use in "/etc/fstab"
[00:42] <peleg> while using the English keyboard, ctrl-a (for example) prints ש, which is from the Hebrew Keyboard.
[00:42] <rascal> good day
[00:43] <knight_> hi everyone
[00:43] <peleg> so I can't navigate in screen, or do some vim stuff, etc.
[00:43] <mastershihochief> http://i38.tinypic.com/qn6w4z.jpg   <<<my problem; http://i33.tinypic.com/2rgnxw7.jpg  <<< What it is when that tab isnt active (Been trying to fix this for days and i never get help wth.... T_T)
[00:43] <mezquitale> kristian1, the line you need to add to "/etc/fstab" should look something like this: "UUID=2515965e-86cf-42be-b508-531ce026e7cd /home           ext3    relatime        0       2"
[00:43] <kristian1> musikgoat|main : yeah, im going to use it for media, but i thought the discussion ending in just using default setup?
[00:43] <kristian1> mezquitale : done that now...

[00:44] <onetinsoldier> wan: you could download that kernel and compile it to get the header files, that is one way to get them. i don't think you have to actually install it, but the driver might not find them unless you can point them to it
[00:44] <musikgoat|main> kristian1: can I pm you?

[00:53] <gnutron> maxus: go to microsoft read the recovery console section, you need a windows install cd.
[00:53] <five_> ok
[00:53] <anto9us> albert_fish, cat /proc/partitions should give you a clue, devices tend to go sda, sdb, etc. and partitions sda1, sda2 etc,
[00:53] <five_> thank you
[00:53] <maxus> been there read it tried it  didnt work
[00:53] <maxus> it will not let me into recovary console
[00:54] <heath|OTG> maxus: how many HDD's are in the machine
[00:54] <maxus> 1
[00:54] <maxus> can i not do it through some kind of fdisck command
[00:54] <heath|OTG> fdisk then d
[00:54] <heath|OTG> j.k
[00:54] <maxus> lol
[00:54] <Genius314> I want to mount my extra ATA drive, but Ubuntu doesn't see it for some reason. I even tried "sudo fdisk -l," but it didn't show up.
[00:55] <heath|OTG> maxus look up noeboot
[00:55] <heath|OTG> neobppt
[00:55] <fliegenderfrosch> i’m trying to connect to an open wlan via the console. with network manager it works. when i use iwconfig ath0 essid "ESSID", iwconfig shows me the essid, but no ap or channel is shown. Has anyone an idea how I could connect?
[00:55] <heath|OTG> jnfdsajfd
[00:55] <heath|OTG> neogrub
[00:55] <root> where can I set it so root cannot ssh in?
[00:55] <root> heh
[00:55] <maxus> thanks for the advice will reseasrch
[00:55] <nick|here> fliegenderfrosch: try to obtain  an ip with dhclient or dhcpcd or whatever you are using
[00:55] <Lasivian> yes, yes, I know "never irc as root"
[00:56] <anto9us> Genius314, is it configured in the bios? does it have a file system on it?
[00:56] <nick|here> fliegenderfrosch: and what about link quality shown when you done iwconfig ath0
[00:56] <maxus> btw my laptop doesnt have a disck drive
[00:56] <musikgoat|main> Lasivian: you set that in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[00:56] <unop> fliegenderfrosch, all the information you need should be available from   sudo iwlist ath0 scan
[00:57] <Lasivian> musikgoat|main: hrrm, I changed it there and was still able to ssh <IP_ADDRESS> and login with root
[00:57] <musikgoat|main> Lasivian: restart sshd:  sudo /etc/init.d/sshd restart
[00:57] <unop> fliegenderfrosch, all except the password offcourse :)
[00:57] <Lasivian> oh stupid me..
[00:57] <Genius314> anto9us: Yeah, I have a filesystem on it, and it has most of my files on it. I was running Ubuntu on it before, but then I got a sata drive, installed Ubuntu on it (while the ATA was disconnected) and now I can't see it in Ubuntu...
[00:57] <albert_fish> Can someoen PM me and help me out with setting up grub froma live CD? http://pastebin.com/m60af6753
[00:58] <Lasivian> musikgoat|main: is there a setting that would stop external logins? only <IP_ADDRESS> is working
[00:58] <radovich> hi. i have a little problem: when i runa script from shell it executes with command ./script.sh, bur when i doubleclick it it does not. how do i make a shortcut to it that works???
[00:58] <maxus> neogrub im really confused now
[00:58] <musikgoat|main> Lasivian: there is, but i'm not sure what it is... check man sshd
[00:59] <Lasivian> ok, thanks
[00:59] <musikgoat|main> Lasivian: or it could be a firewall
[00:59] <gnutron> radovich: whats the very first line in your script? should be: #!/bin/bash
[00:59] <unop> radovich, what does the script do?
[00:59] <paulfitzpatrick> what do you guys recommend for managing process on a web server, to stop them killing the server - god or monitor?
[00:59] <radovich> it is
[00:59] <fliegenderfrosch> nick|here: dhclient doesn‘t get me an ip and afterwards the AP and channel are still not set
[00:59] <anto9us> Genius314, does gparted see it?
[00:59] <radovich> executes a game wormux
[00:59] <gribouille> hi
[00:59] <Lasivian> no, i've gotten as far as being certain it's hitting port 22 inbound :/
[00:59] <jhalstea1> :/p
[00:59] <radovich> unop: it executes a game
[00:59] <fliegenderfrosch> nick|here: the wlan is open btw
[00:59] <nick|here> fliegenderfrosch: try iwconfig ath0 ap "ESSID"
[00:59] <gribouille> I have speakers on one machine and I want to watch a video on another machine (connected to the former). how can I do that without unplugging the speakers ?
[00:59] <unop> fliegenderfrosch, dhclient won't be successful unless you set all parameters for iwconfig/iwpriv
[01:00] <third3ye> Hey there, how can I make a command react to a keyboard shortcut?
[01:00] <maxus> heath|OTG   i dont understand what you mean by neogrub
[01:00] <third3ye> or make a keyboard shortcut execute a command, I dunno :P
[01:00] <albert_fish>  Can someoen PM me and help me out with setting up grub froma live CD? http://pastebin.com/m60af6753
[01:00] <unop> fliegenderfrosch, nick|here, that wouldn't work - an AP is a MAC address not an ESSID
[01:00] <Genius314> anto9us: I don't have it installed right now, but I'll try to see if it finds it.
[01:00] <heath|OTG> maxus: brb
[01:00] <mib_jof61oin> hey guys sorry IE crashed
[01:00] <mib_jof61oin> maxus I don't have a repair option either
[01:01] <gribouille> I have speakers on one machine and I want to watch a video on another machine (connected to the former). how can I do that without unplugging the speakers ?
[01:01] <delineator> whats the difference between desktop, server, and "alternate" installations of ubuntu?
[01:01] <Genius314> anto9us: Nope, it doesn't see it...
[01:01] <mib_jof61oin> Maxus you there?
[01:01] <delineator> is "alternate" for laptops or mobile devices?
[01:01] <onetinsoldier> third3ye: been a long time since i looked at doing anything like that, but i think you have to edit the init file
[01:01] <noobnoob> !offtopic
[01:01] <lexvegas> does anyone know what the offtopic ubuntu channel is?
[01:01] <nick|here> unop: my bad. sorry. fliegenderfrosch try ifconfig then check if ath0 is there. if not ifconfig ath0 up. and bring the interface up
[01:02] <mdmkolbe> Help! I just upgraded to 8.10 and now the wireless won't kick in.
[01:02] <fliegenderfrosch> unop: I followed the madwifi user guide (http://madwifi-project.org/wiki/UserDocs/FirstTimeHowTo) and there it says that the essid should be enough
[01:02] <noobnoob> where do i look at all my system specs under the GUI of Ubuntu?
[01:02] <unop> delineator, the server release doesn't contain the desktop environment - i.e. gnome or KDE - and contains stuff for web, file, print servers etc .. the alternate CD is just another way of installing ubuntu - i.e. it doesn't have a live GUI environemnt to work from
[01:02] <mib_jof61oin> so obviousy I can't get the system repair option in vista...even googled and found out how to. What do I do
[01:02] <anto9us> Genius314, do sudo lshw and check that the drive or at least the ATA controller is listed
[01:02] <maxus> yes i am here
[01:02] <nick|here> fliegenderfrosch: by the way, do you get anything when you do iwlist ath0 s can
[01:02] <fliegenderfrosch> nick|here: ath0 is up
[01:02] <fliegenderfrosch> nick|here: yes, I get a list with all networks
[01:03] <unop> fliegenderfrosch, yea, in most cases the ESSID and key are enough - but sometimes you have to force the AP
[01:03] <delineator> thanks unop, so if i have a gateway 'gaming' laptop, what would be the appropriate installation?
[01:03] <radovich> unop: i downloaded a game wormux from a website, because it is newer than in repos, it has a binary executable which dows not work. in a script, it sais #!bin/bash blah blah paths etc, and it works from a console when i ./script.sh, but when i doubleclick, it does not. is there a way to make a shortcut to it that works?
[01:03] <fliegenderfrosch> unop: so should it need anything besides essid, AP MAC and channel?
[01:03] <noobnoob> where do i look at all my system specs under the GUI of Ubuntu?
[01:03] <unop> delineator, the usual one
[01:03] <nick|here> fliegenderfrosch: when you done iwconfig ath0 essid "YourEssid" then iwconfig you can't see your essid here, that's your problem. can you check in which mode your ath0 is?  Monitor, managed?
[01:03] <markdrago> Is there a way to force my machine to use the vesa driver?  I'm a little lost with an empty xorg.conf.
[01:04] <gnutron> radovich: chmod u+x scriptname.sh
[01:04] <gribouille> I have speakers on one machine and I want to watch a video on another machine (connected to the former). how can I do that without unplugging the speakers ?
[01:04] <albert_fish>  Can someoen PM me and help me out with setting up grub froma live CD? http://pastebin.com/m60af6753
[01:04] <markdrago> I'm about to give a presentation at my lug and I need to use vesa to connect to the projector.
[01:04] <nick|here> fliegenderfrosch: it's enough to set ap for an open network
[01:04] <fliegenderfrosch> noobnoob: you could install hardinfo
[01:04] <anto9us> noobnoob, System | Administration | System Monitor and select System tab
[01:04] <Scunizi> markdrago: try installing grandr for control of xrandr
[01:04] <radovich> gnutron: thanx alot! i will try it
[01:04] <unop> radovich,  are you sure the first line is  #!bin/bash ?? and not  #!/bin/bash  ?
[01:04] <third3ye> onetinsoldier: Nothing that can be fixed via X?
[01:04] <fliegenderfrosch> nick|here: ath0 is managed
[01:05] <markdrago> Scunizi: thanks.  I'll give that a shot.
[01:05] <unop> fliegenderfrosch, for home environments AP is hardly ever needed - just ESSID and key should suffice
[01:05] <fliegenderfrosch> nick|here: iwconfig sets the essid, but AP is shown not associated and channel is shown 0
[01:05] <Scunizi> markdrago: xrandr is what controls the video display now.. :( & :)
[01:05] <markdrago> Scunizi: gotcha
[01:05] <fliegenderfrosch> unop: it’s not even encrypted...
[01:05] <jrib> markdrago: you still use xorg.conf to choose your video driver
[01:06] <nick|here> fliegenderfrosch: try iwconfig channel "Channel" essid "ESSID" rate auto
[01:06] <Genius314> anto9us: What exactly am I looking for in the output?
[01:06] <nick|here> fliegenderfrosch: but it isn't necessary to do that
[01:06] <unop> fliegenderfrosch, this is what i have in my config file - http://pastebin.com/d5a51b10
[01:06] <onetinsoldier> third3ye: i'm not sure.. keep asking your question every once in a while. someone might know
[01:06] <badawi> !linux-virtual
[01:06] <markdrago> jrib: I can get it to use vesa, but it then won't go above 800x600.
[01:06] <gnutron> unop: #!bin/bash isn't correct.
[01:06] <unop> gnutron, quite right, it's not correct
[01:06] <nick|here> fliegenderfrosch: there should be a mac filter if you can't connect even with the last command
[01:07] <unop> gnutron, well it can be - if the script is resident in /
[01:07] <jrib> !x > markdrago
[01:07] <gnutron> unop: mis-understood you, apologies.
[01:07] <radovich> unop: sorry, it's a typo. it sais #!/bin/bash :)
[01:07] <badawi> !linux-server
[01:07] <unop> radovich, mind if we have a look at your script - it should work by all means
[01:07] <radovich> script is good, just does not execute on doubleclick
[01:07] <Genius314> anto9us: The only drive I see here is my SATA...
[01:07] <ninulkin> i need help on russian
[01:08] <fliegenderfrosch> nick|here: there can‘t be a mac filter, as i can connect with network-manager, it just doesn‘t work from the console. but i’ll try this command
[01:08] <gnutron> radovich: if its supposed to output to STDOUT, the a nautilus click isnt going to work.
[01:08] <unop> radovich, that's the thing - it should
[01:08] <albert_fish>  Can someoen PM me and help me out with setting up grub froma live CD?the normal directions availble on line for retoring grub after a winblows install are not working and i cant figure this out onmy own.  http://pastebin.com/m60af6753

[01:08] <Scunizi> markdrago: grandr won't do what you want.. I just checked. there is a lot of instruction on xrandr on debian's site http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12
[01:09] <unop> radovich, there's your problem - you are using incorrect paths
[01:09] <radovich> that's it
[01:09] <unop> radovich, or you aren't changing to the right directory before hand
[01:09] <anto9us> Genius314, you sure the ATA controller is enabled then?
[01:09] <radovich> but when i execute it from shell with ./ it works
[01:09] <Lasiv> ok, when I ssh from a computer on the lan it connects, when I ssh from outside my network it gets refused, is there any way to test and see how far the connection is getting? everything else that is open on my router works fine
[01:09] <nick|here> albert_fish: are you using ubuntu?
[01:09] <unop> radovich, but at the shell your $PWD is different to the one in which nautilus is at
[01:10] <unop> radovich, at the shell, what does the command pwd give you?
[01:10] <radovich> the same as nautilus
[01:10] <fliegenderfrosch> nick|here: i still get AP: Not associated with this last command
[01:10] <Genius314> anto9us: It should be... I can use the CD drive, and they're running from the same connection (this mobo only has one ATA port)
[01:10] <unop> radovich, nautilus does not return anything :)
[01:10] <jill> hi
[01:11] <Lasiv> hrrm, ok, I telnetted it and I get a ssh reasponse, but when I try putty it refuses
[01:11] <radovich> unop: yep:)
[01:11] <unop> radovich,  anyway - you need this on line 2.   cd /path/to/game/
[01:11] <radovich> i click, nothing happens
[01:11] <fliegenderfrosch> nick|here: i’ve got the feeling that this command doesn‘t really do anything, it quits instantaniously and tha wlan led doesnt blink
[01:11] <anto9us> Genius314, the ATA HD has been disconnected? Reconnected properly to same cable and connector?
[01:11] <jill> I have an HP Photosmart D7460, and I have some photo paper that is 4x8 that I would like to print a 4x8 photo on. How can I do this with ubuntu?

[01:11] <gnutron> Lasiv: do you have port forwarding enabled to the sshd host box
[01:12] <Lasiv> gnutron: yes
[01:12] <Lasiv> oh, I see it now, it's hitting the wrong ubuntu box
[01:12] <jill> my printer is connected and reconized by my ubuntu computer
[01:12]  * Lasiv smacks her forehead
[01:12] <gnutron> Lasiv: what error do you get
[01:12] <Lasiv> nevermind, fixed
[01:12] <nick|here> fliegenderfrosch: it's normal. it actually seems like to do nothing but it does. and the leds cannot be work unless you've done some special settings. by the way, why you're insisting to connect via command line
[01:12] <Lasiv> duh on me
[01:13] <maxus> sorry to reask but im having major trouble with a grub error code 22  when itry to recover via windows it asks for me to insert a floppy disk i dont even have a fdd
[01:13] <radovich> unop: You are a Wiz! The Force is strong with You!!! Thank You! It works!
[01:13] <maxus> is there no way to fix via ubuntu
[01:13] <nick|here> maxus: try R to enter a repair console

[01:13] <jill> can anyone help?
[01:14] <Genius314> anto9us: It was disconnected when I installed Ubuntu. I just connected it now, then turned on my computer, but I can't see it.
[01:14] <maxus> nick|here when i do that it asks for a floppy disk i dont have a floppy disk drive
[01:14] <nick|here> maxus: if you want you can boot from ubuntu cd, rescue broken system and then reinstall grub

[01:14] <mdmkolbe> Can someone help me get wireless working?  (It broke durring my upgrade to 8.10)
[01:14] <anto9us> Genius314, does lshw not list it?
[01:14] <jill> how can you configure the paper size of your photo?
[01:15] <nick|here> mdmkolbe: what wireless card are you using
[01:15] <radovich> unop: thanx again, i'm off now to play!
[01:15] <Genius314> anto9us: Nope.
[01:15] <unop> radovich, happy gaming!!
[01:15] <jill> @mdmkolbe: Sure, I know all about wireless. Just finished with that
[01:15] <radovich> anyway, if you like worm, try this game!
[01:15] <mdmkolbe> nick|here: how do I check
[01:15] <nick|here> mdmkolbe: lspci
[01:15] <GodfatherofEire> Is there any way to get rid of unused installation files, like .deb files downloaded by synaptic?
[01:15] <anto9us> Genius314, it's got power connected and it's jumpered properly?
[01:15] <nick|here> mdmkolbe: then look for something like atheros, broadcom
[01:15] <unop> GodfatherofEire, sudo apt-get clean
[01:15] <mdmkolbe> nick|here: 05:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02)
[01:16] <GodfatherofEire> unop, thanks, been wonderin how to do that for a while
[01:16] <jill> ahhh, does anyone know anything about printers?
[01:16] <unop> GodfatherofEire, or perhaps, better. sudo apt-get autoclean
[01:16] <Genius314> anto9us: The jumpers... I forgot. I might have the CD and HDD both set to master... not sure, but I'll check.
[01:16] <GodfatherofEire> unop: thanks
[01:16] <echinos> jill: yeah, but maybe not what you want to know...
[01:17] <mdmkolbe> nick|here: that is was I get from lspci.  (this is a laptop with integrated wireless)
[01:17] <fliegenderfrosch> nick|here: still the same... it’s not really important that I can connect, I just thought it would be nice to be able to do it from the console and as it didn’t work I wanted to know if I do something wrong.
[01:17] <maxus> nick|here just booting ubuntu how do i rescue ?
[01:17] <gnutron> jill: you can try using a browser and cups type http://localhost:631 to administer the printer there.
[01:17] <Caduceus> Hello
[01:18] <nick|here> maxus: try rescue broken system option, and then select reinstall grub from rescue operations
[01:18] <fliegenderfrosch> nick|here, unop: thanks for your help anyway
[01:18] <istvan> hi guys, I don't want to be off topic, anyone knows where should I go if I have hardware/software related questions
[01:18] <Caduceus> I've just downloaded ubuntu 8.10 and I use a USB flash drive for my internet.  wat internet thing should i get?
[01:18] <maxus> where should i find  the rescue broken system options when i boot it wasnt in the list
[01:19] <jill> gnutron: thanks. I see the option "Media Size", but I'm not sure which to pick... I have 4x8 photo papper
[01:19] <jill> *paper
[01:19] <hackel> Caduceus, what in the world does that mean?
[01:19] <nick|here> fliegenderfrosch: nope. i really wonder why you can't. i'm creating a tool that allow users to connect from console easily like gui. i'll inform you later
[01:19] <jill> there doesn't appear to be an option for 4x8
[01:19] <nick|here> maxus: try to type rescue and enter
[01:19] <maxus> at the console?
[01:20] <anto9us> istvan, if it's running on ubuntu then ask here
[01:20] <badawi> !virtualization
[01:20] <Caduceus> hackel, ibe got a 11g wireless USB adapter
[01:20] <nick|here> maxus: yes
[01:20] <maxus> ok will try that now
[01:20] <istvan> yess and no, if it solves on ubuntu then probably everything isd solved... here it is
[01:20] <gnutron> jill: I don't think it supports it. you might try the CUPS site- http://cups.org/
[01:20] <hackel> Caduceus, ah, okay, that's quite different from a flash drive.  Still don't know what the "internet thing" means that you want to get...
[01:21] <maxus> nick|here  thank you so much for  trying to help i cant loose the data on the windows drive its got all my composition work :(
[01:21] <Caduceus> hackel, I cant connect to the internet
[01:21] <manzur> hey my friend i need one help, maybe it is not about ubuntu, but it is about sending  bug, listen: i want to know how do you say "atrazar" in english, i know you say rewind, so how do you say "adelantar"?
[01:21] <Caduceus> should i pop in the CD i got with the adapter?
[01:21] <istvan> I just built a somewhat high end rig and know that is together I cannot put any OS on it. on windows says that its a crc error system halted and something similar on ubuntu as well
[01:22] <hackel> Caduceus, no, unless the manufacturer randomly supplied linux drivers.  Have you searched for that model to see if it's compatible with linux?
[01:22] <maxus> it says rescue command not found
[01:22] <Caduceus> Where should I check?
[01:22] <albert_fish> nick|here: yes im useing ubuntu
[01:22] <istvan> I put   4 sata hdds on it, one assigned to windows related oses and one for linuxes, but no luck with any of these
[01:22] <hackel> Caduceus, google
[01:22] <manzur> istvan: hey my friend i need one help, maybe it is not about ubuntu, but it is about sending  bug, listen: i want to know how do you say "atrazar" in english, i know you say rewind, so how do you say "adelantar"?
[01:22] <noobnoob> will an external hd made for windows users be plug n play on ubuntu will there be a problem with xferring data?
[01:23] <nick|here> albert_fish: which version ? try to boot from cd and rescue broken system , then reinstall grub
[01:23] <LjL> manzur: don't randomly use people's nicknames.
[01:23] <hackel> noobnoob, I've never heard of making hard drives for a particular operating system.  Should work fine.
[01:23] <echinos> noobnoob: should be plugnplay, ubuntu has ntfs modules afaik
[01:23] <tuxxy__> hey are the forums down
[01:23] <anto9us> istvan, your psu is rated to support that many drives?
[01:23] <manzur> LjL: ok my friend
[01:23] <hackel> noobnoob, you'll probably want to reformat it as ext3 though.
[01:23] <istvan> i don't know but it can provide 950W
[01:24] <LoveGuru> Hi, to make linux as ssh server then i can access my box from outside. which packages i do need ? ssh-server or ssh?
[01:24] <wan> Hi onetinsoldier:  Me again.  Have DLed & am building a <IP_ADDRESS> kernel.  When it's done, where will I find the linux-headers?
[01:24] <echinos> hackel: no,he wants to read the drive from ubuntu
[01:24] <LjL> manzur: the word you'd looking for might be "forward", but it depends on the context.
[01:24] <gnutron> istvan: check your BIOS hdd settings maybe.

[01:24] <anto9us> istvan, that's a lot of watts, should be ok
[01:24] <LjL> manzur: or "fast forward", or simply "wind".
[01:24] <lu6cifer> I'm compiling something, and it asks for boost/bind.hpp--is there someway I can obtain this file without installing the entire boost library?
[01:24] <echinos> noobnoob: plug 'er in, go to places, should be there
[01:24] <mdmkolbe> nick|here have you forgotten about me?
[01:25] <echinos> noobnoob: only catch is ntfs might be read only, not sure about that
[01:25] <LjL> manzur: but if you're trying to translate a the words of a program to English in a bug, i suggest you just leave them in Spanish instead.
[01:25] <istvan> my fan controller said that on turning on uses only 250 with QX9650, 2 9800 GX2 and 4 1TB hdd
[01:25] <istvan> in it
[01:25] <nick|here> mdmkolbe: try googling "ubuntu intrepid 3945ABG"
[01:25] <LjL> lu6cifer: not easily. what's the problem with installing the whole library? "sudo apt-get install libboost-dev" will get it for you
[01:26] <wan> I downloaded & built an older kernel as I'm after the linux-headers for that version.  Now it's built, where do I find the linux-headers?
[01:26] <mezquitale> what e-mail client that also is able to use newsgroups would you recommend for GNOME???
[01:26] <RequinB4> istvan: are you trying to have all 4 at once?
[01:26] <Caduceus> hackel, i cant find anything about it.
[01:26] <McCallister> I'm running xubuntu and seem to have lost my panel (task bar equivalent). How can I get it back?
[01:26] <LoveGuru> jrib: what i have to install ? ssh-server , ssh-client or ssh ?
[01:26] <Caduceus> will my computer be affected if i put in the cd?
[01:26] <istvan> gnutron: I check, I can even partition and install os just doeasn't load. I can't believe that(or at least tqwo that i tried) have MBR issues
[01:26] <anto9us> echinos, noobnoob, ubuntu supports write on NTFS provided windows has shutdown cleanly and isn't hibernated
[01:26] <jrib> LoveGuru: did you read the link from ubottu?
[01:26] <echinos> wan: where'd you get the kernel?
[01:26] <lu6cifer> It's just that the library is really large (half a gig when uncompressed)
[01:27] <echinos> anto9us: thx\
[01:27] <hackel> Caduceus, what kind of device is it?  What is the model?
[01:27] <istvan> RequinB4: yes, the motherboard should be able to support 6 sata2 one
[01:27] <Daemonik> I'm running a ubuntu ltsp server, nbd-server won't start. http://pastebin.ca/1281237  I didn't delete any configs, it was setup with the ltsp-server-standalone package (I think). What am I missing here?
[01:27] <lu6cifer> I want to try and avoid downloading the entire thing
[01:27] <unop> McCallister, try launching the xfce4-panel  from a terminal or run dialog box
[01:27] <MasterShihoChief> ok now i need big help
[01:27] <LoveGuru> jrib: alright. :) thx
[01:27] <maxus> nick|here couldnt rescue so im installing again onto freespace that i deleted  from previous this should at least fix  grub?
[01:27] <hackel> Caduceus, no, it won't be affected, but it only contains windows drivers.  You might be able to use those with ndiswrapper if there are no open-source drivers.
[01:27] <MasterShihoChief> now my environment wont stop blinking
[01:27] <MasterShihoChief> and my desktop icons are gone
[01:27] <Caduceus> What do you suggest I do hackel?
[01:27] <nick|here> maxus: which version are you using?
[01:27] <Daemonik> I suppose it doesn't matter . . hm
[01:28] <maxus> 7.10
[01:28] <wan> echinos:  I struggled finding it, eventually turned up in a tarball on a us .edu server
[01:28] <gnutron> istvan: try booting a gparted cd
[01:28] <hackel> Caduceus, what kind of device is it?  What is the model?
[01:28] <RequinB4> istvan: i'm definitly not claiming this will do anything, but i had a problem once with my power supply on ubuntu - can you try using just sata drive (the one you're booting from) and move from there?  It'll make diagnostics easier too
[01:28] <echinos> wan: ok, so they didn't have headers there too?
[01:28] <MasterShihoChief> hello? my windows are all blinking non stop
[01:28] <maxus> im assuming all i have to do is  install then if it fixes grub error  then i just need to edit my grub file again?
[01:28] <istvan> gnutron: i did and used it for partitioning for linux distros but nothing, grub starts and then error message kicks in
[01:29] <Caduceus> TRENDnet TEW-444UB is the model, hackel
[01:29] <keres_> what is the chown syntax to remove ownership from a folder?
[01:29] <anto9us> istvan, are you trying to set up raid or lvm across these drives? you will need to put /boot on a partition by itself
[01:29] <echinos> wan: maybe the headers are in the tarball and you didn't see 'em?
[01:29] <mdmkolbe> thx nick|here the first link provided some info that helped (at least as work arounds)
[01:29] <keres_> anyone?
[01:29] <keres_> what is the chown syntax to remove ownership from a folder?
[01:30] <Octoroks> how would i get ubuntu to boot from a external harddrive?
[01:30] <lstarnes> keres_: you need to transfer its owbership to another user account
[01:30] <Yann1> hi, I used the force-quit applet to kill an aplication. it worked but now I have still a (forcequit) splash over evrything. How can I kill the applet itself?
[01:30] <lstarnes> *ownership
[01:30] <istvan> anto9us: no raid yet, I just wanted to start with four plain hdds
[01:30] <musikgoat|main> keres_: removing whose ownership?
[01:30] <gnutron> istvan: maybe zero  the mbr with 'dd'
[01:30] <badawi> Yann1: xkill
[01:30] <istvan> gnutron: talk to me, what's that?
[01:30] <keres_> i accidentally set ´sudo chown -R keres:keres /usr/´ to do some major work on a series of folders, big mistake
[01:30] <Yann1> badawi: xkill on the splash don't work...
[01:30] <MasterShihoChief> <<< this guy's comp is 3 inches from the pool and ready to throw it in
[01:30] <echinos> !permissions
[01:31] <musikgoat|main> keres_: oh, thats bad
[01:31] <nick|here> istvan: dd -i /dev/zero -o /dev/sda
[01:31] <wan> echinos: the tar has a /include directory, but its a totally different structure to the linux-headers-2.6.20-17 in my usr/src
[01:31] <anto9us> keres_, chown user:group, you don't remove so much as change ownership and group ownership
[01:31] <Recursiv3> Hello. I am trying to disable the tap to click on my Synaptics touchpad in Ubuntu 8.10. I cannot use gsynaptics because it gives me the error message "GSynaptics couldn't initialize. You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics".
[01:31] <istvan> gnutron: I'm using live cd right now, can I do that through this?
[01:31] <badawi> Yann1: killall <processname>
[01:31] <keres_> anto9us: is this the same as it was before?
[01:32] <badawi> Yann1: what's the app
[01:32] <keres_> to make it the same?
[01:32] <gnutron> istvan: should be able to, best to google dd and mbr
[01:32] <matus_> hello.. I got core2duo 2.6 processor... can I install the 64 bit version of ubuntu?
[01:32] <Recursiv3> There is no tutorial that I have read yet that tells me how to get GSynaptics to work in 8.10.
[01:32] <MasterShihoChief> i swear its like pulling teeth to get an damn help around here
[01:32] <storrgie> I want to configure my hosts.allow to allow a couple things and set my deny to all, can anyone help me out
[01:32] <Yann1> badawi; right, but I have no idea what the process name of the force-quit applett is....
[01:32] <anto9us> keres_, before what?
[01:32] <fliegenderfrosch> Recursiv3: have you tried doing what it tells you to do?
[01:32] <keres_> anto9us: before i changed ownership of /usr/ to my account?
[01:32] <RequinB4> Yann1: iirc its just python
[01:32] <istvan> gnutron: this dd doesn't have the -i option. would it work without it?
[01:32] <badawi> Yann1: ps -eaf | grep force
[01:32] <scientes> can you just issue one command and then allways install -dev packages?
[01:33] <keres_> anto9us: it leaves huge vulnerabilities. i´d rather get it back the way it was :S
[01:33] <scientes> its so annoying when building packages
[01:33] <hackel> Caduceus, it uses an Atheros AR5523 / AR2112 chip which should work with the madwifi driver.
[01:33] <LjL> DON'T RUN THE DD COMMAND GIVEN
[01:33] <Caduceus> What does that mean> o_O
[01:33] <Caduceus> And what should i do to make it work?
[01:34] <dk> is it a good idea to always set swap space even though you have 4gb of memory
[01:34] <israelito_solito> hello, can anyone tell me how I can use the S-video cable to switch to my TV?
[01:34] <anto9us> keres_, hopefully you've not changed recursively and can just do sudo chown root:root /usr
[01:34] <fliegenderfrosch> israelito_solito: xrandr should be able to do that
[01:35] <keres_> anto9us: recursively?
[01:35] <fliegenderfrosch> israelito_solito: which ubuntu version?
[01:35] <kelen> Hi,i'm a beginner on ubuntu.
[01:35] <anto9us> keres_, with -R, don't use that now though
[01:35] <israelito_solito> Intrepid
[01:35] <Yann1> badawi: strange, but there's no python process running expect screenlets and  printer-applet
[01:35] <keres_> anto9us: sudo chown -r root:root /usr/    ?
[01:35] <israelito_solito> 8.10
[01:35] <Yann1> badawi: grep force returns nothing
[01:35] <israelito_solito> Intrepid Ibex
[01:35] <anto9us> keres_, no, don't do that, I was checking if you had previously, that's all
[01:36] <fliegenderfrosch> israelito_solito: you could check if the tv shows up in the screen settings
[01:36] <Caduceus> Are you there hackel?
[01:36] <musikgoat|main> keres_: i don't know if root should own the entire /usr directory,  i think there will be apps that will not work
[01:36] <anto9us> keres_, just do the command sudo chown root:root /usr
[01:36] <lorenzo> hi, is there any way I can make the volume out of my laptop louder? Often even if I crank the master up to max, volume is still to low on my ibex. Maybe it's me going deaf but I was just wondering, maybe i can get a bit extra gain and pull it up a tad. Thanks a lot everybody
[01:36] <MasterShihoChief> ok well i have had enough this comp is going in the pool, cheers
[01:36] <musikgoat|main> keres_: i'm not sure if all /usr directories are supposed to be owned by root, perusing my own
[01:37] <RequinB4> lorenze: try turning pcm up?
[01:37] <l337ingDisorder> does anyone here know the proper syntax for scp?
[01:37] <choklitrein> I need a hand with my wired networking. I need my box to connect to the internet via a XP laptop
[01:37] <choklitrein> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6339840
[01:37] <fliegenderfrosch> lorenzo: make sure all channels are up
[01:37] <l337ingDisorder> i'm trying    scp root@<host>: /path/to/file
[01:37] <lorenzo> fliegenderfrosch, yes all up
[01:37] <l337ingDisorder> it's telling me:
[01:37] <badawi> Yann1: it's called something else, i'm looking
[01:37] <l337ingDisorder> scp: .: not a regular file
[01:37] <gnutron> l337ingDisorder: scp file user@host:  will work, dont  forget the colon.
[01:38] <lorenzo> RequinB4, how do i do that?
[01:38] <anto9us> choklitrein, if this is without a hub then are you using a cross-over network cable and not a standard one?
[01:38] <dsch04> I've just hit a really bizarre "thing" with GNOME Terminal
[01:38] <RequinB4> lorenzo: alsamixer (in terminal)
[01:38] <dsch04> If I hit "s", it opens a new terminal
[01:38] <istvan> manzur: to move forward maybe?
[01:38] <choklitrein> anto9us: just a standard eth0 one
[01:38] <dsch04> wtf?
[01:38] <anto9us> choklitrein, do you have a hub between them?
[01:38] <choklitrein> nope
[01:38] <fliegenderfrosch> dsch04: is s set as the shortcut for the terminal?
[01:38] <choklitrein> just this:
[01:38] <choklitrein> [ Ubuntu ] --ethernet--> [ Win XP Laptop ] - - - Wireless - - -> [ Router ]
[01:39] <dsch04> Not that I'm aware of
[01:39] <hackel> Caduceus, sorry, madwifi doesn't support USB.  You'll have to try to use ndiswrapper.  Install the "ndisgtk" package from Synaptic, which will allow you to load the windows driver off of your CD, and with any luck, it will work. :)
[01:39] <dsch04> It doesn't happen in any other window
[01:39] <l337ingDisorder> gnutron: Ok I tried putting the file path first, now the error has changed to "/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf: No such file or directory" (but I know damn well that file exists as I have it open in pico in another session
[01:39] <l337ingDisorder> )
[01:39] <anto9us> choklitrein, it won't work, the wiring on the cable has to be different, the green and orange pairs need swapping
[01:39] <choklitrein> anto9us: alright, thanks
[01:39] <jtaji> l337ingDisorder: what is the source file, and what is the destination file?
[01:39] <l337ingDisorder> gnutron: so if I know the file exists on the host I'm trying to grab it from, why would it say it doesn't?
[01:39] <dsch04> "S" doesn't do anything, just "s"
[01:40] <gnutron> l337ingDisorder: give me the path to file you want to copy, or the whole dir.
[01:40] <Caduceus> what is the website to the "ndisgtk" thing?
[01:40] <lorenzo> RaquinB4, yeah the master's up, capture is 0 but I guess that has nothing to do with it right?
[01:40] <recon69> have a question, using firestarter firewall GUI it shows 4 http connectios open, these connection show no program owning them, and the only internet program i have open is this irc program which show in active connections as well. anyone know what going on?
[01:40] <istvan> another thing this is more hardware related, can sata optical drive be used on the ide with appropriate sata2ide thing?
[01:40] <RequinB4> lorenzo: there should be a pcm slider
[01:40] <hackel> Caduceus, I don't know, it doesn't matter.  Just install it in Ubuntu's Add/Remove programs.  More details here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[01:40] <l337ingDisorder> gnutron: the file I want is on root@server at /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
[01:40] <RequinB4> lorenzo: or maybe not... nevermind
[01:40] <dsch04> fliegenderfrosch: Ah, you're right
[01:40] <l337ingDisorder> gnutron: I just need to copy that to the local filesystem
[01:40] <jtaji> l337ingDisorder: so you need scp root@server:/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf /path/to/local/dest
[01:41] <lorenzo> RequinB4, I only got master, capture, all. that's it
[01:41] <gnutron> l337ingDisorder: and where do you want it
[01:41] <fliegenderfrosch> dsch04: what was it?
[01:41] <Caduceus> ok thanks hackel
[01:41] <l337ingDisorder> jtaji: Tried that, didn't let me.. hold on i'll try again
[01:41] <gnutron> l337ingDisorder: ok, sec
[01:41] <dsch04> "New Window" is set to "s"
[01:41] <dsch04> No idea how
[01:41] <fliegenderfrosch> dsch04: :)
[01:41] <dsch04> Must have been some random keypresses  - I didn't do it on purpose
[01:41] <dsch04> In fact, I don't know how to undo it!
[01:41] <lorenzo> RequinB4, any other ideas?
[01:41] <RequinB4> lorenzo: well, how quiet is it? really really quiet to the point you think something is wrong or just not as loud as you think it would be
[01:41] <rascal_is_here> hai every body welcome to #hackers_heaven join and share and solve hacking
[01:42] <wan> Hey echinos!  Sorry for the delay, just grepped the entire untarred kernel <IP_ADDRESS> sources for "linux-header*" & there's no references in there - are the /usr/src/linux-header* built along with the installation?
[01:42] <Pici> rascal_is_here: Please do not advertise channels here, this is a support channel.
[01:42] <lorenzo> RequinB4, it's not superquiet but still quieter than on Gutsy
[01:42] <RequinB4> lorenzo: what is your sound card (lspci)
[01:43] <dsch04> So, how do I reset that back to Ctrl-Shift-n ?

[01:45] <l337ingDisorder> jtaji: Ahhhh great, thanks! I first tried without the space but that gave another error (probably because I didn't specify destination)
[01:45] <l337ingDisorder> thanks for the help guys!

[01:45] <Octoroks> does the file browser shoe file extentions on default?
[01:45] <lorenzo> RequinB4, ah really?
[01:45] <jedi06> should i be using aptitude instead of apt-get?
[01:45] <RequinB4> lorenzo: and you should have pcm there somewhere
[01:45] <israelito_solito> can anyone tell me if its possible to display the monitor on the TV
[01:45] <RequinB4> lorenzo: yeah, but that was in feisty so idk
[01:45] <gnutron> jedi06: either will do.
[01:45] <israelito_solito> usign s-video cable
[01:45] <lorenzo> RequinB4, I can see PCM in the alsa mixer from icontray
[01:45] <RequinB4> lorenzo: do what fliegenderfrosch said
[01:45] <fliegenderfrosch> israelito_solito: have you checked the screen (resolution) preferences?
[01:46] <jedi06> gnutron but is aptitude better
[01:46] <RequinB4> lorenzo: remember best quality sound is at 74% PCM, loudest at 100%
[01:46] <israelito_solito> hi, yes
[01:46] <israelito_solito> it doesnt show
[01:46] <jtaji> jedi06: officially you should be, apt-get is the "back end" interface, and aptitude is the high-level interface, according to the man pages :)
[01:46] <lorenzo> RequinB4, fliegenderfrosch, ok you have been very kind, thanks for your time!
[01:46] <fliegenderfrosch> RequinB4: thx, didnt know that with best quality
[01:46] <gnutron> jedi06: yes, so i've heard, didnt want to start a package manager war :)
[01:47] <Octoroks> it won't let me move files to /usr/ it says i don't have the permission
[01:47] <gnutron> jedi06: i agree btw.
[01:47] <RequinB4> fliegenderfrosch: yeah, i learned that the hard way
[01:47] <rob227> anyone know anything about pulseaudio in here?
[01:47] <noobnoob> echinos thanks for the help on external hds and ntfs i dont think linux and ntfs get along well
[01:47] <rob227> I ony can get sound out of one speaker?
[01:47] <RequinB4> fliegenderfrosch: actually, i'm 70% sure its the same quality and only gets bad at 75% +
[01:47] <gnutron> noobnoob: yes they do.
[01:47] <jedi06> ok i will start using aptitude
[01:48] <fliegenderfrosch> RequinB4: i just learned that my soundcard sounded shitty when i set pcm to 100 and used master to change the volume
[01:48] <noobnoob> anto9us thanks for the help on system mon
[01:48] <noobnoob> fliegenderfrosch hardinfo!
[01:48] <anto9us> noobnoob, yw
[01:48] <gribouille> hi
[01:48] <rob227> Can anyone help with pulseaudio?
[01:48] <crimsun> rob227: what sort?
[01:49] <RequinB4> fliegenderfrosch: there you go.  I just turn pcm up really loud if i'm in an area with lots of noise pollution and to 74 when not
[01:49] <fliegenderfrosch> noobnoob: ?
[01:49] <gribouille> I can't get my sound card to yield any sound. my card is Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB High Definition Audio Controller. any idea ?
[01:49] <DiiPhantom> how i know i have latests OPENGL? am I supposed to update some OPENGL for ubuntu? or updates do it?
[01:49] <rob227> crimsun: Only one speaker is working! The other doesn't. I have check the volume controls aka alsamixer.
[01:50] <merln> gribouille: i am having the same prolem
[01:50] <fliegenderfrosch> RequinB4: i had to fight with that as gnome didnt let me change the channel my multimedia keys control...
[01:50] <gribouille> merln, and the same card ?
[01:50] <gnutron> DiiPhantom: updates ; upgrades will do it. provided it's installed.
[01:50] <crimsun> rob227: please pastebin the output from `amixer -c0'
[01:50] <rob227> Thanks for any help you can give
[01:50] <badawi> i want to rebuild a package with the debugging flag on (-g) i did apt-get source  --download-only foobar, but now what do i do?

[01:50] <fliegenderfrosch> israelito_solito: what do you get if you type xrandr in the console?
[01:51] <merln> gribouille: let me check i think
[01:51] <rob227> so in terminal "pastebin amixer -c0"?

[02:00] <robert__> it beat firefox and epiphany in the acid test
[02:00] <norcim122> can someone help?
[02:00] <McCallister> google chrome is windows only
[02:00] <Pici> robert__: There is no native version of Chrome for Linux currently
[02:00] <McCallister> you might try opera
[02:00] <robert__> oh ok
[02:00] <robert__> are there plans for google to make it for linux?

[02:01] <robert__> is google making chrome for linux?
[02:01] <anto9us> nbeebo, BRL-CAD is worth a look
[02:01] <israelito_solito> I used it all the time with windows so

[02:02] <robert__> thanks
[02:02] <norcim122> this is the error ERROR> run-init: overmounting root: stale NFS File Handle
[02:02] <onetinsoldier> badawi: what's happening? you with me?
[02:03] <badawi> onetinsoldier: yes
[02:03] <nbeebo> anto9us, thanks dude
[02:03] <McCallister> Does anyone know of a driver that supports Creative SB0090 Sound Blaster Audigy PCI Sound Card w/ SB1394 Firewire ?
[02:03] <alex_21> DAISY is the Digital Accessible Information System, used by visually impaired people for print material, converted to speech I am looking for a guide to using DAISY Pipeline, and installing it. Does anyone know what I can try Googleing, because I run into brick walls everywhere so far, getting only DAISY Pipeline GUI, which isn't what I want
[02:03] <onetinsoldier> badawi: ok, is it unpacked?
[02:03] <israelito_solito> fliegenderfrosch, are you there_
[02:03] <israelito_solito> ?
[02:03] <badawi> onetinsoldier: yes but without -C in the end
[02:04] <norcim122> I have a usb install which gets this at boot:  ERROR> run-init: overmounting root: stale NFS File Handle
[02:04] <norcim122> any takers?
[02:04] <fliegenderfrosch> norcim122: to me it looks like it is trying to mount a NFS volume as root file system
[02:04] <Ximal> also heyguys ... for some reason i'm getting an error message from the   "501 Tor is not an HTTP Proxy" error .. are there any solutions to this if you use tor ?
[02:04] <onetinsoldier> badawi: well i don't know if it would have unpacked into  /usr/ src  dir then. did it?
[02:04] <badawi> onetinsoldier: yes it's unpacked
[02:04] <onetinsoldier> ok
[02:05] <norcim122> fliegenderfrosch and that is bad?
[02:05] <onetinsoldier> badawi: does it have a 'debian' dir in there?
[02:05] <badawi> onetinsoldier: no
[02:05] <norcim122> fliegenderfrosch  another clue is that   has PATH: /root/usr/bin:/root/usr/bin:/root/usr/bin:/root/usr/bin:
[02:06] <norcim122> I guess that is the overmounting part
[02:06] <badawi> onetinsoldier: ok if it apt-get source uqm, that unpacks it and creates the debian folder
[02:06] <israelito_solito> how can I add this file /etc/x11/xorg.conf to my video card?
[02:06] <badawi> onetinsoldier: s/it/i
[02:06] <nbeebo> whats the "best" for new apps?
[02:06] <nbeebo> best site*
[02:06] <fliegenderfrosch> norcim122: i don‘t know this exactly, maybe there is an entry in your /etc/fstab
[02:06] <ardchoille> israelito_solito: That's the wrong path
[02:06] <storrgie> can you run bastille on a headless box?
[02:06] <D-MAN> does anyone kow a program that will allow me to create invoices?
[02:07] <fliegenderfrosch> israelito_solito: it looks like it hasn‘t recognized your tv out
[02:07] <badawi> onetinsoldier: i got the debian folder, what's the next move
[02:07] <norcim122> fliegenderfrosch  I will check
[02:07] <gnutron> nbeebo: http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[02:07] <ardchoille> israelito_solito: it should be /etc/X11/xorg.conf (Linux is case sensitive)
[02:07] <alex_21> Any acess users here?
[02:07] <anto9us> D-MAN, there's a template already in Openoffice.org spreadsheet
[02:07] <alex_21> Access, sorry
[02:07]  * Panarchy says Hi
[02:08] <onetinsoldier> badawi: ok, cool. now, i've never used the debian dir before, but i have seen the command for it. i have used a simple program called checkinstall to make .debs. but perhaps we can see if we can use the debian dir to build it
[02:08] <israelito_solito> thanks, but how can I get it to recognize it?
[02:08] <D-MAN> an do you know were to locate it?
[02:08] <fliegenderfrosch> israelito_solito: /etc/X11/xorg.conf is the configuration file for the xserver, where your graphics card driver settings are stored.
[02:08] <badawi> onetinsoldier: sure
[02:08] <onetinsoldier> badawi: hang on a minute
[02:08] <D-MAN> anteaya,  do you know were to locate it?
[02:08] <ardchoille> !nvidia | israelito_solito
[02:08] <noobnoob> anto9us i would if i was downloading the entire internet
[02:09] <noobnoob> wasnt

[02:09] <storrgie> can I run the graphical version of bastille on my server using my laptops x window system?
[02:09] <revilodraw> hi! i have tried to print a test page for my new brother hl-2150n printer, and received this error '

[02:09] <nbeebo> gnutron, not really what im looking for..
[02:09] <onetinsoldier> badawi: ok. do you see the 'Makefile' in there?
[02:10] <fliegenderfrosch> storrgie: it could work with ssh -X
[02:10] <McCallister>  0 [Audigy         ]: Audigy - Audigy 1 [Unknown]

[02:10] <Panarchy> Hi, I'm trying to remove a package called libgnutls26, which I just added. However, it wants to remove all of these; [pastebox] http://www.mibbit.com/pb/Fcyl2l
[02:10] <badawi> onetinsoldier: no Makefile in debian or base_dir
[02:10] <storrgie> fliegenderfrosch: when i connect to ssh just throw the -X arg on there?
[02:11] <onetinsoldier> badawi: base_dir
[02:11] <norcim122> fliegenderfrosch  what do i look for in fstab
[02:11] <fliegenderfrosch> storrgie: i think so
[02:11] <mrwes> I see the ppa repos for open office 3.0 are working again for Ibex 8.10 -- anyone get them to work for 8.04?
[02:11] <fliegenderfrosch> norcim122: a NFS entry
[02:11] <badawi> onetinsoldier: uqm-0.6.2.dfsg
[02:11] <onetinsoldier> badawi: yes
[02:11] <fliegenderfrosch> norcim122: but i have no idea if that is the problem, i’m just guessing
[02:11] <froggles> hi
[02:11] <mrwes> er
[02:12] <D-MAN> anteaya,  do you know were to locate it in open office spreadsheet?
[02:12] <froggles> is this the place to spread the word of the Klan?
[02:12] <mrwes> hah
[02:12] <musikgoat|main> absolutely not
[02:12] <froggles> ok ok... which is why i asked.
[02:12] <Panarchy> Please tell me what to do;
[02:12] <Panarchy> Hi, I'm trying to remove a package called libgnutls26, which I just added. However, it wants to remove all of these; [pastebox] http://www.mibbit.com/pb/Fcyl2l
[02:12] <anteaya> D-MAN, I have no idea what you are talking about. Sorry mate!
[02:12] <norcim122> fliegenderfrosch  I have this .................${UNIONFS} / ${UNIONFS} rw 0 0
[02:13] <onetinsoldier> badawi: well, one way to add the -g flag is to edit that file. but, now it been a while since i've done this, i think you can export the -g option as an environment variable. let's try that
[02:13] <L3Tum> how long should it take for the terminal to "read filenames from STDIN"? I've waited almost 10 mins, there are almost 400 files. It's showing just the blinking cursor, should I close the terminal and try to do less files at once?
[02:13] <badawi> onetinsoldier: sure
[02:13] <anto9us> D-MAN, can't find it at the moment, it used to be there, not used it for a while though, trying to locate, hang on
[02:13] <merln> sorry i accidentally closed out before i am having trouble getting sound working on my computer can anyone help?
[02:14] <D-MAN> anto9us,  kk i appreciate it!
[02:14] <froggles> Panarchy: thats cooky
[02:14] <tsrk> My flash drive isn't working and I'm getting the error "device not accepting address 9, error -110" in kern.log.  It doesn't work on windows either.  What's wrong with it?
[02:14] <SSilver2k> how do i tell if 3d acceleration is enabled on my system?
[02:14] <peeps_> hiya folks!
[02:14] <onetinsoldier> badawi: to do that, here's the command,   export "gcc=gcc -g"  ..however, let me try and look and see if i have that right
[02:14] <peeps_> http://pastebin.com/m3a9a9f39
[02:14] <mrwes> SSilver2k, open a terminal and type glxgears
[02:14] <froggles> i say let apt-get uninstall all those, then apt0get install them
[02:14] <peeps_> why am i getting that error?
[02:15] <storrgie> should I run bastille on my webserver?
[02:15] <qcjn> hi, after the screensaver, i can't open the computer, it leaves a black screen ?
[02:15] <gribouille> I have a Quadro FX 370 graphics card. what package should I install for the X server ?
[02:15] <storrgie> gribouille: nvidia 177 will handle your card fine
[02:15] <froggles> gribouille: you mean the driver ?
[02:15] <L3Tum> Is there any way to know if the terminal has frozen?
[02:15] <scientes> checkinstall mkdir is completely broken
[02:15] <gribouille> froggles, yes
[02:16] <storrgie> gribouille: what laptop are you using? my precision 4300 has that and I use the 177 driver
[02:16] <scientes> i have to run it then manually created the directories it needs in /usr/lloca/whatever
[02:16] <SSilver2k> im getting 550FPS in glxgears, i assume thats good?
[02:16] <Scunizi> I need a reference for a graphical pdf page extractor and merging utility.. pdfedit just doesn't seem to want to work
[02:16] <gribouille> storrgie, it's not a laptop, it's a workstation
[02:16] <Asako> try glxinfo
[02:16] <scientes> it does it like mkdir -p -- /usr/local/share/gtk-doc/html/libvirt
[02:16] <scientes>  and doesnt work
[02:16] <onetinsoldier> badawi: instead try   export "CCFLAGS=-g" ...there, i'm pretty certain that's how to do it.
[02:16] <scientes> how can i make this work
[02:16] <badawi> onetinsoldier: and what
[02:17] <storrgie> gribouille: i have a FX 360m, i was thinking 370 sorry
[02:17] <badawi> onetinsoldier: and what's the command to build the .deb package?
[02:17] <onetinsoldier> badawi: you can see that with  echo "$CCFLAGS"
[02:17] <gnutron> L3Tum: type reset, or try ctrl+c first
[02:17] <musikgoat|main> storrgie: i don't think the quattro cards work with the default drivers...
[02:17] <onetinsoldier> badawi: do you have the CCFLAGS environment variable set?
[02:17] <froggles> i have an nVidia 8400GS, a pci card. when i watch high quality movies and dvd's there's a random,  glitch like ripple accross mplayer/xine.  but when i had my prior card (nvidia mx4000), that never happened.
[02:17] <gribouille> storrgie, what is the name of the package containing the 177 driver ?
[02:17] <badawi> onetinsoldier: yes
[02:17] <storrgie> musikgoat|main: mine works fine, and 177 glx works fine on most of them
[02:17] <mib_b2ny13hw> Hey guys I got my boot fixed by reinstalling ubuntu
[02:18] <musikgoat|main> on a quattro? didn't they have special drivers?
[02:18] <qcjn> hi gnutron
[02:18] <mib_b2ny13hw> now how do I uninstall ubuntu safely?
[02:18] <L3Tum> gnutron: what does reset or ctrl+c do?
[02:18] <gnutron> qcjn: yo
[02:18] <peeps_> why am i getting this error?
[02:18] <peeps_> http://pastebin.com/m3a9a9f39
[02:18] <storrgie> quattro?
[02:18] <storrgie> u mean quadro?
[02:18] <onetinsoldier> bascule: ok. now, as root, or perhaps you can use the 'sudo' command, while in the base_dir, type in   sudo debian/rules binary
[02:18] <musikgoat|main> storrgie: sorry, yeah
[02:18] <gnutron> L3Tum: reset, resets and clears the terminal buffer, ctrl-c aborts what might be running
[02:19] <storrgie> musikgoat|main: yea glx-177 supports them
[02:19] <musikgoat|main> storrgie: i'm going with you on this
[02:19] <musikgoat|main> storrgie: must have been back in the day
[02:19] <Scunizi> froggles: the newer nvidia 180.11 driver will probably fix that.. It fixed many of my issues.. install instructions are on the forums.. just search for 180.06 and you'll see it.
[02:19] <storrgie> musikgoat|main: well we could check the package information
[02:19] <badawi> onetinsoldier: is it CCFLAGS or CFLAG?
[02:19] <storrgie> http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/nvidia-glx-177
[02:19] <musikgoat|main> storrgie: your right
[02:20] <storrgie> musikgoat|main: quadro fx 370 is in there
[02:20] <onetinsoldier> badawi: hmm, been so long, perhaps it is CFLAG
[02:20] <qcjn> gnutron: after the screensaver, my computer stay,s in blackscreen, and i can't have access to the computer, so i have to restart
[02:20] <gribouille> there is no nvidia-glx-177 in hardy 64 bit !
[02:20] <storrgie> hmmm
[02:20] <onetinsoldier> badawi: yep. i think it is CFLAG]
[02:20] <storrgie> yes that might be a problem
[02:20] <musikgoat|main> gribouille: there should be, thats what i'm running
[02:20] <storrgie> gribouille: have you ever installed the nvidia drivers? (from nvidia)
[02:20] <badawi> onetinsoldier: it's building with CCFLAGS, i'll try CFLAG in a minute
[02:20] <peeps_> why am i getting this error?    http://pastebin.com/m3a9a9f39
[02:20] <gnutron> qcjn: just restart x-windows ctrl+alt+backspace i think.
[02:21] <gribouille> storrgie, no
[02:21] <storrgie> gribouille: that might be a better option for you, why are you stuck in 8.04?
[02:21] <qcjn> like ...right now ?
[02:21] <gribouille> storrgie, because it's LTS
[02:21] <onetinsoldier> badawi: i think your right CFLAGS. CFLAGS is for the C compiler options, while i believe that CCFLAGS is for the C++ options
[02:21] <storrgie> gribouille: alright well... install the nvidia bin driver, if you want assistance you can message me
[02:21] <gribouille> musikgoat|main, are you using 64 bit hardy ?
[02:21] <badawi> onetinsoldier: know what, i'll export all of them and try again :)
[02:22] <anto9us> D-MAN, can't find it in the repos but there's one here http://smalldataproblem.org/ooextras/downloads/english/index.php?tab=Calc
[02:22] <fliegenderfrosch> i gotta go to sleep now, see you
[02:22] <gnutron> qcjn: sure, if you have irssi in a screen, you wont drop your irc connection.
[02:22] <noobnoob_> how do i join another irc server and keep these channels open on this server in xchat?
[02:22] <gribouille> storrgie, you mean the driver from the ubuntu repos ?
[02:22] <qcjn> gnutron: ok
[02:22] <onetinsoldier> badawi: ok.. but if you are redoing, you need to run a clean command
[02:22] <musikgoat|main> gribouille: no, intrepid, i picked up on that late, i'll let storrgie help you :-P
[02:22] <onetinsoldier> badawi: or remove the dir and unpack it again
[02:22] <storrgie> gribouille: just pm me, i cant watch this thread my eyes hurt
[02:23] <froggles> Scunizi: cool thanx
[02:23] <mrwes> I see the ppa repos for open office 3.0 are working again for Ibex 8.10 -- anyone get them to work for 8.04?
[02:23] <froggles> Scunizi: i thought there was only one nvidia driver
[02:23] <mrwes> re McCallister
[02:24] <McCallister> Hey guys.
[02:24] <gnutron> noobnoob_: xchat |help
[02:24] <corinth> rg
[02:25] <gnutron> noobnoob_: xchat should do multiple servers, though i don't know the exact command.
[02:25] <mib_b2ny13hw> where do I type fixmbr in vista reovery mode? Do I start command line or something?
[02:25] <onetinsoldier> badawi: if you need to clean the source for a clean compile, try  sudo debuild clean
[02:25] <McCallister> You can connect to multiple servers and channels in xchat.
[02:25] <onetinsoldier> badawi: again, i've never done this using the debian build dir
[02:25] <peeps_> why am i getting this error? http://pastebin.com/m3a9a9f39
[02:26] <anto9us> noobnoob, ctrl+t then type /server <address>
[02:26] <badawi> onetinsoldier: ok got the .deb file!! now to see if it has the debugging information
[02:26] <McCallister> Just create new tabs in xchat.
[02:26] <onetinsoldier> badawi: roger, gl!
[02:27] <Bax> I want to empty a .Trash folder on a partition.  I can type rm -rf * in that folder and it will delete everything in ONLY that folder, right?
[02:27] <mrwes> noobnoob, you can also use Ctrl + W to close a tab -- just like in Firefox
[02:27] <mrwes> Bax, heh
[02:27] <badawi> onetinsoldier: didn't work :( (no debugging symbols found)
[02:27] <mrwes> making sure aye?
[02:27] <gnutron> peeps_: try mount -t vfat /media/floppy/
[02:27] <anto9us> Bax, provided that folder is the PWD (present working directory)
[02:28] <McCallister> is there an easy way to save the open servers/channels you have in xchat so that they open next time you open the program?
[02:28] <Yamikuronue> I reinstalled ubuntu after it was working (long story, was trying to do something that didn't work so I ended up reformatting again) and now the desktop won't load. I'm very much unfamiliar with the command line... can anyone help me figure out how to get it back up?
[02:28] <onetinsoldier> badawi: dang... well, you can edit the Makefile and see if that works
[02:28] <D-MAN> anto thanks that helps allot now i can get paid !
[02:28] <noobnoob_> gnutron thx
[02:28] <gnutron> peeps_: or try mount -t vfat /dev/floppy /media/floppy/
[02:28] <badawi> onetinsoldier: we're close i'll try changing config.state in debian
[02:28] <onetinsoldier> badawi: ok
[02:28] <mrwes> Bax, you can type pwd at the prompt to make sure you're in the correct directory
[02:29] <qcjn> gnutron: it was the right command, it restarted, it unconnected xchat, thought.. But i won't know if it's working till the screensaver starts again ? or the energie saver ?
[02:30] <gnutron> qcjn: the screensaver probably didnt agree with the box resources or video driver, use another screensaver.
[02:31] <L3Tum> when browsing, like to upload pictures, is there a hotkey to view as thumbnails instead of list? I can't select multiple files in list.
[02:31] <anto9us> McCallister, yes, ctrl+s and edit the Network server, add favourite #channels seperated by a comma and without spaces
[02:31] <gribouille> storrgie, I'm not chatting on the workstation
[02:32] <qcjn> gnutron: i did change screensaver ! just before i asked the question i came back to the older one !
[02:33] <the_dark_warrio> sometimes, when scrolling large pages, or text files, the sound interrupts for a while and than starts again. Any hints?
[02:33] <gribouille> storrgie, kde
[02:34] <onetinsoldier> badawi: Ur-Quan Masters is Star Control released as free open source. i used to play Star Control way back on a game console called a 3DO.
[02:35] <qcjn> gnutron: but if i wan,t to use another screensaver and it does the samething (comes black and can't do anything anymore) . Can i restart x? ctrl+alt+backspace ?
[02:35] <nbeebo> whats a simple easy good forum solution (SOFTWARE)? lol
[02:35] <gnutron> qcjn: yes
[02:35] <storrgie> ummmm in gnome there is GDM, what is it called in KDE?
[02:35] <onetinsoldier> kdm
[02:35] <qcjn> ok,
[02:36] <badawi> onetinsoldier: ok, for debugging, uqm creates uqm-debug, but debian isn't including it in the .deb
[02:36] <storrgie> onetinsoldier: thnnkx.,
[02:36] <L3Tum> ok so apparently ubuntu does not support thumbnail views when browsing files. so is there a way to select all files or select multiple files when browsing?
[02:36] <anto9us> the_dark_warrio, your processor isn't keeping up with the demand, look at what's eating up resources, try different apps for doing what you're doing that are less processor intensive
[02:37] <onetinsoldier> badawi: hmmm, you could use checkinstall to make the .deb. but it's more simplistic. the .deb won't contain stuff like all the dependency information and things of that nature
[02:37] <Static--> is there a command to launch gnome gdm, so i can use it as a lock screen?
[02:37] <gnutron> L3Tum: gthumb does thumbnails
[02:37] <BazookaAce> <L3Tum: yes it does
[02:37] <zxus> hey
[02:37] <BazookaAce> yo
[02:37] <Lossif> Hey, I just installed a new HD in my mythbox, Mounted and shared it and I can see it on the network but for some reason it is readonly
[02:38] <zxus> Just installed unbuntu, its aswome =D
[02:38] <ardchoille> zxus: :)
[02:38] <zelrikriando> zxus, glad you like it
[02:38] <gnutron> Static--: /etc/init.d/gdm  start | stop   lock screen is in your logoff menu.
[02:38] <onetinsoldier> badawi: is uqm-debug a toaly separate executable?
[02:38] <onetinsoldier> tottaly*
[02:38] <evgeni> Ho
[02:38] <evgeni> hi
[02:39] <Static--> gnutron: i know where lock is, but i want to launch gdm to use it insead of lock screen
[02:39] <zxus> yeah, thanks, i've gotta go play more, i'll be back to bug you guys with my problems soon =P peace people !
[02:39] <badawi> onetinsoldier: yes otherwise it's uqm
[02:39] <L3Tum> gnutron, BazookaAce: Is there either a hotkey or way to change from list view to thumbnail view, or a way to select multiple files from list view? I'm trying to upload some pics but there are almost 400 of them, and I can't select more than one at a time from the list view
[02:39] <the_dark_warrio> anto9us: I was working with Bless, a hex editor, and when I scrolled the window, the music interrupted. I think gnome is a little bit heavy
[02:39] <noobnoob_> its just be against the world baby
[02:39] <noobnoob_> !xchat
[02:39] <evgeni> I tried to set up a msql/php/html server using lamp method... Everything is set up accept that I don't know my mysql password
[02:39] <ardchoille> badawi: I had no idea that game was in the repos
[02:40] <gnutron> Static--: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm  start or stop
[02:40] <evgeni> can you help me to find it
[02:40] <l7> how do i get a program to start when i log in?  i want to get tomboy notes to start automatically - minimized if possible
[02:40] <Static--> gnutron: doesnt that just start the service, not launch it
[02:40] <badawi> ardchoille: it's been there for a looong time
[02:40] <onetinsoldier> badawi: i'm thinking checkinstall wouldn't include either, but i could be wrong. you would probably need to edit some file in the debian dir, or perhaps the Makefile in base_dir, in order to get it included in the .deb
[02:41] <onetinsoldier> badawi: if you want i can download this and start looking at it myself
[02:41] <tsopp> Hey got a quick question, I'm using ffmpeg, trying to change an .avi to a .flv but its telling me "unknown format" for the .avi file, is there something i'm missing?
[02:41] <tsopp> s/change/convert/
[02:41] <badawi> onetinsoldier: don't bother, unless you want to play it too ;)
[02:41] <anto9us> everyone_, system | preferences | sessions | startup programs, add
[02:41] <eli_> Any one know howto resolve this error? ‘const char*’ to ‘char [6]’
[02:41] <fushorts> l7, system > preferences > sessions
[02:41] <Static--> is there a command to launch gnome gdm, so i can use it as a lock screen?
[02:42] <dj_ee3> Anyone knows how I can find my mysql password ?? I am using LAMP ...
[02:42] <badawi> onetinsoldier: i got by debug file, it's not that much of a problem that it's not installed, i can copy the file manually
[02:42] <l7> fushorts: thanks, i'm trying that
[02:42] <onetinsoldier> badawi: i will do it. this has been a good refresher for me, besides, like the game and have installed older versions of uqm in linux as well as in windows
[02:42] <onetinsoldier> badawi: ok, whatever works, but i will take a look anyway
[02:43] <badawi> onetinsoldier: i need the debug version to cheat, the game is sooo hard
[02:43] <schnauzer> Static--, If you want to lock your screen, use [Ctrl]+[Alt]+L
[02:43] <zhjawe> My 3D accelerate card is Geforce2 mx 400,the refresh rate is always 50HZ.
[02:43] <onetinsoldier> badawi: oh, hehe
[02:43] <anto9us> tsopp, you should make sure you have all the codecs installed
[02:43] <tsopp> anto9us: well not sure which one i am missing :P
[02:43] <anto9us> !restricted
[02:43] <gnutron> Static--: it starts the gnome desktop
[02:43] <badawi> onetinsoldier: pause when it's about to save, and change the values on the fly >:)
[02:44] <tsopp> anto9us: well yea, those codecs I have.
[02:44] <Static--> schnauzer: i know how to lock the screen, i want to use gdm instead of the lock screen
[02:44] <anto9us> tsopp, does the file play in vlc?
[02:44] <Yamikuronue> hmm. Startx gives me "Fatal server error: no screens found" followed by "xinit: connection refused (errno 111): unable to connect to X server" followed by "xinit: no such process (errno 3): server error" followed by dumping me back at the command line. If that helps at all with the not loading the desktop thing.
[02:44] <l7> another question: how can i start firefox with the same window position and dimensions every time?
[02:44] <schnauzer> Static--, ohh, in that case, i think you can use "switch user" for that, if that's the result you want
[02:44] <gnutron> Static--: that doesn't make sense to me !
[02:45] <onetinsoldier> badawi: ahh, i see. the game is hard, but i have beaten it without cheat. but i have to save a lot and restart from my saves. ;-)
[02:45] <fushorts> l7 that should save automagically
[02:45] <froggles> Scunizi: is it 180.11 driver or  180.06 ?
[02:45] <froggles> you mentioned both
[02:45] <schnauzer> Static--, System > Log out [username] > Switch User
[02:46] <gnutron> l7: i think system - prefs - sessions you toggle save session settings.
[02:46] <froggles> Scunizi: you were talking about the nvidia driver.
[02:46] <l7> hmm, it seems when terminal is occupying the top left corner, firefox will not open in the top left corner as well
[02:46] <schnauzer> Your programs will remain, but you will get your login screen instead of a lock screen
[02:46] <Lossif> is there a reason why my samba share is readonly even if it should be set to share?
[02:46] <mdmkolbe> What is intrepid-backports?
[02:46] <l7> basically i want several apps to open in the top left corner rather thank looking for a "free" corner...
[02:46] <storrgie> how do i update/install the linux headers?
[02:46] <Yamikuronue> do I maybe need some sort of video card driver?
[02:47] <asrael> a generic linux question... how is it possible that a script runs fine when i start, but when the same users crontab runs it, i get errors?
[02:47] <fushorts> l7, i know if you have advanced desktop settings it is possible for the most part
[02:47] <mdmkolbe> Is it (intrepid-backports) ports from older versions to intrepid or ports from newer versions to intrepid?
[02:47] <qcjn> schnauzer: will the program still continue, like the music continue playing ?
[02:47] <storrgie> how do i install/update my linux headers?!?!?!?!
[02:47] <fushorts> l7, you can get that from add/remove programs if you dont have it already
[02:48] <anto9us> mdmkolbe, newer versions
[02:48] <ardchoille> mdmkolbe: my understanding is that backports are apps from newer versions of Ubuntu
[02:48] <l7> gnutron: hmm, system - prefs - sessions doesn't quite work as it doesn't save window positions but thanks anyhow
[02:48] <asrael> storrgie apt-get install linux-headers-version
[02:48] <schnauzer> I'm using Rhythmbox, and it seems to pause the music.
[02:48] <mdmkolbe> anto9us, ardchoille: thx
[02:49] <badawi> onetinsoldier: hey thanks for your dedicated help btw
[02:49] <qcjn> schnauzer: i use mpd
[02:49] <RequinB4> asrael: replace version with `uname -r` (with the `)
[02:49] <schnauzer> However, the programs will retain their info; If you're typing a document, you can continue where you left off earlier
[02:49] <onetinsoldier> badawi: yw, although i was obviously rusty
[02:49] <[TiZ]> Hi. I'm trying to play Yo Frankie, or in other words, the Apricot open game. But I only get a gray screen. I'm using the open ati drivers. What's going on? Do I have to use fglrx?
[02:49] <schnauzer> qcjn: I'm afraid I don't know, then.
[02:50] <onetinsoldier> badawi: what window manager do you use?
[02:50] <qcjn> i ll try it
[02:50] <asrael> back to my question... ^^' how is it possible that a script runs fine when i start, but when the same users crontab runs it, i get errors?
[02:50] <badawi> onetinsoldier: right now it's gnome or gnome/openbox
[02:50] <badawi> onetinsoldier: when i'm remote
[02:50] <mylisto> question...
[02:50] <mylisto> I've got a .sh file...
[02:50] <Chriger[Ecl]> Ubuntu is AWSOME!
[02:50] <l7> fushorts: hmm, i'm searching for it...
[02:50] <mylisto> Its a script (me thinks) to install twonky
[02:50] <mylisto> how do I run the script?
[02:51] <Bitfish> Chriger[Ecl], it sure is, yep!
[02:51] <asrael> mylisto, allow it to run (chmod +x filename) and ./filename
[02:51] <onetinsoldier> badawi: gnome is the environment. do you know what window manager it is? enlightenment(e16), xfce? icewm?
[02:51] <schnauzer> ./script or sh script
[02:51] <[TiZ]> mylisto, right click it, properties, click the Permissions tab, and add execute permissions. then just double click it.
[02:51] <asrael> or sh filename
[02:51] <ShaunWing> say does ubuntu come standard with a putty like program?
[02:51] <kristian_> what bittorrent client and partition editor do people use?
[02:51] <ShaunWing> Assumed it would?
[02:51] <badawi> onetinsoldier: metacity, but openbox for vnc
[02:51] <wan> thx - bye
[02:51] <Bitfish> ShaunWing, you mean SSH?
[02:52] <asrael> kristian_, utorrent and fdisk
[02:52] <ShaunWing> yes
[02:52] <mylisto> ah..
[02:52] <mylisto> thanks
[02:52] <onetinsoldier> badawi: roger that. are you using 64-bit install?
[02:52] <ardchoille> ShaunWing: Ubuntu comes with ssh
[02:52] <Bitfish> ShaunWing, there is a PuTTy-alike client available, but SSH is builtin
[02:52] <l7> fushorts: did you mean simple-ccsm?
[02:52] <gnutron> ShaunWing: apt-cache search putty   its there
[02:52] <badawi> onetinsoldier: no 32
[02:52] <fushorts> l7, up top you need to make sure you have it set to all available applications, then it is called Advanced Desktop Effects Settings (ccsm)
[02:52] <[TiZ]> Hi. I'm trying to play Yo Frankie, or in other words, the Apricot open game. But I only get a gray screen. I'm using the open ati drivers. What's going on? Do I have to use fglrx?
[02:52] <Bitfish> ShaunWing, just type 'ssh user@host' in your Terminal
[02:52] <Yamikuronue> ...so no advice, huh?
[02:53] <asrael> guys, any1 use crontabs? for some reason it gives error when i run a script that runs normally fine
[02:53] <Lossif> how do you find the permissions of a directory?
[02:53] <Lossif> in terminal
[02:53] <asrael> Lossif, ls -l dir
[02:53] <ShaunWing> tx but looking for an X ssh application like putty
[02:53] <[TiZ]> Yamikuronue, did you ask a question? I don't see one from you when I scroll back.
[02:53] <Bitfish> Yamikuronue, in what?
[02:53] <peleg> I type mplayer -really-quiet /home/peleg/.voicemem/voice.wav 2>&1 > /dev/null   --- it plays well enough, but still I recieve two error messages ("mplayer: could not connect to socket" and "mplayer: No such file or directory
[02:53] <Bitfish> s/in/on
[02:53] <Yamikuronue> [21:28] <Yamikuronue> I reinstalled ubuntu after it was working (long story, was trying to do something that didn't work so I ended up reformatting again) and now the desktop won't load. I'm very much unfamiliar with the command line... can anyone help me figure out how to get it back up?
[02:53] <l7> fushorts: you mean make sure there's a check mark next to all the third party software repos?
[02:53] <onetinsoldier> badawi: ok, copy. i was going to ask if you wanted to try something. i made the Makefile work for x86_64 for an old program call 'xsnow'. it would need to be edited again to make it work for 32-bit tho
[02:53] <SergeantPony> I updated from 7.10 to 8.10 and for some reason it won't boot using kernel 2.6.27-10-generic, it will booot using 2.6.24-22-generic. Any specific reason why?
[02:54] <peleg> what's happening? how come mplayer does not shut up?
[02:54] <[TiZ]> Desktop won't load? Please elaborate more.
[02:54] <Bitfish> Yamikuronue, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:54] <Yamikuronue> the... gnome or whatever. The GUI. I'm just staring at a command prompt and I've never (before today) used a unix/linux command prompt, though google has been helping me learn.
[02:55] <schnauzer> Yamikuronue: "startx"
[02:55] <fushorts> l7, on mine it is just a selection on the top that says All available applications
[02:55] <Yamikuronue> I tried that. It claims to be running gnome and restarts fine but I'm still at a prompt
[02:55] <badawi> onetinsoldier: what do you need? i think xsnow is already there in the repo
[02:55] <Yamikuronue> Startx gives me "Fatal server error: no screens found" followed by "xinit: connection refused (errno 111): unable to connect to X server" followed by "xinit: no such process (errno 3): server error" followed by dumping me back at the command line.
[02:55] <ShaunWing> say how do I install putty?
[02:55] <Bitfish> Yamikuronue, type this in your terminal: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:55] <ohcrapitsgone> How do I configure grub to boot vista?
[02:55] <schnauzer> Alt+F7 maybe?
[02:55] <[TiZ]> Yamikuronue, what about -- okay. That's more useful.
[02:55] <qcjn> schnauzer: the music continued, but firefox & xchat closed
[02:55] <SergeantPony> I updated from 7.10 to 8.10 and for some reason it won't boot using kernel 2.6.27-10-generic, it will booot using 2.6.24-22-generic. Any specific reason why? this is on a Toshiba Satellite laptop
[02:55] <[TiZ]> What version of Ubuntu are you trying to run?
[02:55] <ari_stress> Yamikuronue: sudo dpkg reconfigure gdm
[02:55] <mylisto> ok...
[02:55] <mylisto> not working
[02:55] <gnutron> Yamikuronue: case sensitive startx
[02:55] <nnull> guys, im trying to open nvidia-settings, but it says when i try open that x driver isnt in use, but the restricted driver for my software is in use according to hardware drivers???
[02:55] <schnauzer> qcjn: thats odd, im not sure what caused thatr
[02:55] <[TiZ]> No, that's sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm. It needs a hyphen
[02:56] <l7> fushorts: http://phubuntu.wordpress.com/2007/10/19/advanced-desktop-effects-settings/ seems to suggest the package is compizconfig-settings-manager
[02:56] <Bitfish> ShaunWing, well, lemme see
[02:56] <l7> fushorts: is that the package you're referring to?
[02:56] <gnutron> ShaunWing: sudo apt-get install putty
[02:56] <Bitfish> ShaunWing, http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/putty
[02:56] <onetinsoldier> badawi: oh, it might be in ubuntu. i'm using regular debian here. it's not in available in debian. but i just got downloading ubuntu 8.10 a bit ago because i thought i'd install it to see what it's all about.
[02:56] <RequinB4> !info putty
[02:57] <fattmoley> Can anyone tell me how to start the NVIDIA X Server Settings program with root privileges? Also how do I restart the X Server?
[02:57] <[TiZ]> Yamikuronue, another thing you could do is sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[02:57] <ShaunWing> tx
[02:57] <RequinB4> [TiZ]: that command does next to nothing in hardy +
[02:57] <qcjn> schnauzer: well i did it with the red close button (upper right) disconnect !
[02:57] <Yamikuronue> yeesh, I found the update command and it's apparently got a lot of updates. I'll try both those in one minute when it finishes.
[02:57] <gds_lumut> ab_d
[02:57] <[TiZ]> RequinB4: Next to nothing is better than nothing.
[02:58] <[TiZ]> What does the "fix xserver" thing in the recovery menu do, then?
[02:58] <afeijo> how can I check if my user is under quota (disk space) ?
[02:58] <fushorts> l7, yeah
[02:58] <schnauzer> qcjn: on the panel?
[02:58] <daemonicum> okay: question: running ubuntu.. i have some drives, which i DO want to mount on startup, but u don't want them to be shown on the "desktop"... what do i do?
[02:58] <badawi> onetinsoldier: it's debian testing with a re renamed firefox and morbid emphasis on sudo
[02:58] <onetinsoldier> badawi: i'll have three linux installs. debian lenny, debian sid, and ubuntu, lol. and then winxp pro to boot.. lol. i can hardly keep up witjh them all. anyway, i'm off to install. gl with uqm!
[02:58] <fattmoley> Can anyone tell me how to start the NVIDIA X Server Settings program with root privileges? Also how do I restart the X Server?
[02:59] <anto9us> ohcrapitsgone,  gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst and change the default to whatever line number windows would appear at in that list
[02:59] <qcjn> schnauzer: the upper bar right of the time
[02:59] <daemonicum> fattmoley xserver restart is ctrl alt backspace
[02:59] <fushorts> l7, after it is installed on mine it turns to the compiz name however in the Add/Remove programs list it was the advanced desktop settings name
[02:59] <[TiZ]> daemonicium, you can either hide all volumes from the desktop, or show all volumes from the desktop. Nothing in between.
[02:59] <onetinsoldier> badawi: a morbid emphasis eh? hehe
[02:59] <gnutron> fattmoley: i think  its sudo nvidia-settings in a terminal
[02:59] <fattmoley> Thanks
[02:59] <nnull> fattmoley¬ gksu nvidia-settings & ctrl + alt + backspace
[02:59] <SergeantPony> I updated from 7.10 to 8.10 and for some reason it won't boot using kernel 2.6.27-10-generic, it will booot using 2.6.24-22-generic. Any specific reason why?
[02:59] <onetinsoldier> badawi: what happens if you don't use sudo?
[02:59] <l7> fushorts: which version of ubuntu do you have by the way?
[02:59] <badawi> !sudo
[02:59] <asrael> any1 use crontabs? for some reason it gives error when i run a script that runs normally fine... any idea?
[03:00] <schnauzer> qcjn: I'm afraid I don't know how to help you
[03:00] <nnull> when i try to start nvidia-settings it says im not using X server
[03:00] <anto9us> SergeantPony, run updates and upgrades and try again
[03:00] <Jack_Sparrow> SergeantPony did you go through 8.04
[03:00] <nnull> but if i check in hardware drivers i am using proprietry driver
[03:00] <qcjn> schnauzer: i'm just telling you what i did!
[03:00] <afeijo> how can I check if my user is under quota (disk space) ? it tells me 'no disk space' but I have 6 gb
[03:00] <badawi> onetinsoldier: from the link ubottu gave -> . If you believe you need a root account to perform a certain action, please consult the official support channels first, to make sure there is not a better alternative.
[03:00] <daemonicum> anyone got an answer to my question?
[03:00] <xorxes> Anyone know how to format a partition to hfs+ ??
[03:00] <badawi> onetinsoldier: lol
[03:00] <SergeantPony> jack_sparrow I did all upgrades / updatews when they came out. it stops on loading hardware drivers
[03:00] <fushorts> l7, 8.10 currently but it has been that way fro me since 7.04 i believe
[03:01] <daemonicum> xorxes use an os x install disk ^^
[03:01] <badawi> onetinsoldier: there's a section called -> Re-disabling your root account
[03:01] <onetinsoldier> badawi: ok, see ya later. have fun
[03:01] <badawi> onetinsoldier: later
[03:01] <xorxes> daemonicum....lol. i tried that, believe me. it didnt work, so my last resort is to do it from linux
[03:01] <ShaunWing> sudo apt-get install putty ---> couldn't find package ... any ideas?
[03:01] <onetinsoldier> badawi: i'll have a look at it befoe i install
[03:01] <daemonicum> xorxes what.. seriously?
[03:01] <anto9us> daemonicum, I think there's a tweak in gconf-editor for that somewhere
[03:02] <daemonicum> via diskutil you should get it done
[03:02] <[TiZ]> daemonicum, you can either hide all volumes from the desktop, or show all volumes from the desktop. Nothing in between.
[03:02] <asrael> ShaunWing why would you need putty?
[03:02] <gnutron> ShaunWing: open synaptic, enable reositories
[03:02] <gnutron> asrael: good question ;p
[03:02] <clickster> Hello, how do I elevate to superuser status in sudo?
[03:02] <ShaunWing> to vie multiple ssh clients
[03:02] <daemonicum> [TiZ] how so?
[03:02] <ohcrapitsgone> anto9us: I installed Linux after Vista and unlike with XP Vista wasn't auto detected and I have no entry for it and I'm screwed.....
[03:02] <daemonicum> that would help already.. like.. how do i do htat
[03:02] <daemonicum> ?
[03:02] <exodus_ms> windoze? putty?
[03:03] <[TiZ]> Wanna do it through GUI, or CLI?
[03:03] <McCallister> Where do programs generally get installed to?
[03:03] <l7> fushorts: ah well thanks for the tip, switching the placement mode to cascade in compizconfig is a bit nicer
[03:03] <daemonicum> xorxes diskutil should actually do the trick
[03:03] <ShaunWing> and store their login info easily...
[03:03] <Lossif> if I set up a samba share in my /media directory would I need to change the permissions of that folder?
[03:03] <fushorts> l7, sorry i cant be of more help good luck
[03:03] <daemonicum> [TiZ] it's not for me actually, so rather gui
[03:03] <anto9us> ohcrapitsgone, I believe you can configure grub to do it, I've never had to though
[03:03] <qcjn> anyway, other subject..i couldn't play the video or diaporama so i wen't and changed in xorg.conf...section screen, defaultdeph to 16 instead of 24, and now it works..But the quality seems to have "diminushed" ---not sure of this word --firs language is french
[03:03] <Yamikuronue> sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm says "changes will take effect when all current X sessions have ended". I've also noticed my screen is blinking oddly from time to time.
[03:04] <[TiZ]> daemonicum, okay. So hit Alt+f2, type gconf-editor, and hit enter. Go to apps -> nautilus, and change show_volumes to false. Done.
[03:04] <ohcrapitsgone> anto9us: Darn, I can't seem to get help with this and I really need to be able to get into Vista tonight. Thanks for trying to help.
[03:04] <l7> fushorts:  it's cool, cascaded windows is a bit of an improvement for not too much work
[03:04] <unicum> [TiZ] i'll try.. thx is coming soon ^^
[03:04] <Yamikuronue> sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg warns me "overwriting possibly-customized configuration file; backiup in /etc/x11/xorg.comf.20081209220409". Still looking at a prompt.
[03:05] <[TiZ]> Yamikuronue, restart.
[03:05] <fushorts> l7, fair enough :)
[03:05] <schnauzer> qcjn: That's because you've changed your color settings to display fewer colors
[03:06] <gnutron> Yamikuronue: try just 'start'  looks like a buntu thing i dunno
[03:07] <Yamikuronue> rebooting puts me at a prompt
[03:07] <Yamikuronue> start gives me "missing job name"
[03:07] <gnutron> Yamikuronue: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[03:08] <gnutron> Yamikuronue: you've tried that right?
[03:08] <Yamikuronue> "* starting GNOME Display Manager... [OK]" followed by a prompt
[03:09] <gnutron> Yamikuronue: check your x log in /var/log/
[03:09] <McCallister> I installed tomboy using the synaptic package manager and I can't open the program.
[03:09] <gnutron> Yamikuronue: something is missing or just whacked but fixable.
[03:09] <Yamikuronue> gnutron: how do I do that? Again, absolute command line newbie, I'm used to dos commands
[03:10] <keymaster> irc
[03:10] <keymaster> irc
[03:11] <Yamikuronue> gnutron: like, I figured out using google how to nagivate to the directory, but what program do I use to open the log and what's the command for that?
[03:11] <anto9us> McCallister, type tomboy in a terminal and see what it says
[03:11] <gnutron> Yamikuronue: sudo less /var/log/Xorg.0.log   its scrollable, spacebar, page-up
[03:11] <Yamikuronue> thanks
[03:12] <Yamikuronue> what am I looking for? I presume at the bottom, right?
[03:12] <gnutron> Yamikuronue: correct
[03:12] <McCallister> That did the trick! How can I add it to my applications list?
[03:13] <anto9us> McCallister, it should already be under accessories
[03:13] <unicum> http://helios.wh2.tu-dresden.de/~unicum/usual_suspects.jpg
[03:13] <McCallister> It is, I'm blind. Thanks.
[03:14] <l7> does anyone know how to adjust stickiness in compizconfig?  i want to get windows to stop sticking to the edge of the screen
[03:14] <Yamikuronue> the end of it tells me again "Fatal server error: no screens found".
[03:14] <Yamikuronue> Before that, "(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/muodules/drivers//vesa_drv.so  (II)Module vesa: vender="X.Org Foundation" compiled for 1.5.0, module version = 1.3.0 Module class = X.org Video Driver  ABI class: x.Org Video Driver, version 4.1   (II) VESA: driver for VESA chipsets:vesa  (II) Primary Device is:  (WW) Falling back to old probe method for vesa  (EE) No devices detected."

[03:15] <Yamikuronue> with of course each (II) thing starting a new line
[03:15] <keres_> is it "sudo apt-get install firefox" ?

[03:19] <Yamikuronue> ah, thanks. Do I want to use the kernel's framebuffer device interface?
[03:19] <McCallister> Thanks for recommending Tomboy notes, it's really great.
[03:19] <Panarchy> Can someone help me find the latest version of libgnutls13? As I need it for wireshark-common, the latest version, which isn't available in apt.
[03:20] <gnutron> Yamikuronue: that could be the problem, i would say no, but yes might work.
[03:20] <viator> what packages do i need forStandard C runtime library development  Standard C++ runtime library development

[03:22] <Panarchy> CodeBlocks for an IDE if you like
[03:22] <keres_> i guess it works :S

[03:22] <gnutron> keres_: ubuntu-desktop i'm pretty sure
[03:23] <gnutron> viator: sorry
[03:23] <Yamikuronue> ok, I configured the appropriate keyboard, told it no keyboard options, and it warns me it's overwriting the configuratino file and puts me back at the prompt. Did I miss something here? It all seemed to be asking about the keyboard type
[03:23] <micah> Should upstream upgrade requests be made in ubuntu or debian?
[03:23] <viator> ok i have them both
[03:23] <keres_> gnutron: thanks

[03:24] <woden_> What is the digital photo program for Ubuntu?
[03:24] <bryanbuchanan> gracias, will do
[03:25] <Yamikuronue> it put me back at a prompt but the screen's blinking a bit oddly.
[03:25] <woden_> "You have just inserted a medium with digital photos.  Choose what application to launch."
[03:25] <woden_> "No applications found"
[03:25] <ThePlastikJesus> Is there a way to cleanup un wanted files in Ubuntu like you would in windows like a "Disk Clean-Up"
[03:26] <keres_> if you close out a terminal that is doing something on accident, what happens?
[03:26] <schnauzer> keres_, the program stops.
[03:26] <gnutron> keres_: it will probably stop it
[03:27] <woden_> keres_:  Type CTRL + z, then bg, then you can close the Terminal and the program won't stop
[03:27] <gnutron> Yamikuronue: you do have ubuntu-desktop installed right, did it ever work?
[03:28] <woden_> What is the digital photo program for Ubuntu?
[03:28] <Yamikuronue> It used to work before I reformatted. All signs seem to indicate it's installed, I forget now what the command was but it told me it was already installed...
[03:28] <schnauzer> keres_, If you want to run a terminal program in the background, open up a virtual terminal [Ctrl]+[Alt]+F1
[03:28] <asdfg>  hi
[03:28] <Chrisie> woden_:  try GIMP
[03:28] <asdfg>  i like hi better
[03:29] <woden_> Chrisie:  No, a digital photo program.  When I plug in my digital camera I get a box that says "You have just inserted a medium with digital photos.  Choose what application to launch." and "No applications found".  I already have gimp installed.
[03:30] <mikeypizano> can i reverse sync an ipod on ubuntu?
[03:30] <Xcerca> i just compiled a program from code blocks and it runs fine there,  but how can i run the executable from the foler without moving it to the bin folder ?
[03:30] <McCallister> use songbird.
[03:30] <schnauzer> mikeypizano, I prefer gtkpod
[03:30] <Xcerca> bash program or ./ program or somthing like that ?
[03:30] <mikeypizano> mccallister, i do have the songs, i need the rating and play count info
[03:30] <ntndo> neither gtkpod, nor songbird seem to transfer album art over when I put music on my iPod.  Any halp?
[03:31] <McCallister> mikeypizano, I haven't tried gtkpod.
[03:31] <mikeypizano> y do i havet o have this thing lol
[03:32] <mikeypizano> having ratings is important
[03:32] <woden_> What is the digital photo program for Ubuntu?
[03:32] <lifeistoenjoy> mk
[03:32] <Xcerca> woden_   for editing ?
[03:32] <slayerboyWRK> woden_: there are many, GIMP can be used, you can try Picasa, you can try F-spot
[03:32] <tritium> woden_: you need to be more specific
[03:32] <McCallister> woden_, great question. There is a photo viewer, but not an importer. Does Picasa have a linux client?
[03:32] <gnutron> Yamikuronue: so its a fresh install?
[03:32] <tritium> (There are several, that do various things)
[03:32] <slayerboyWRK> McCallister: yes
[03:33] <woden_> Xcerca:  No, when I plug in my camera it asks me which program I want to open but the list is empty it says "No applications found".
[03:33] <Yamikuronue> gnutron: yeah.
[03:33] <woden_> tritium:  Did you read my previous comment above?
[03:33] <gnutron> Yamikuronue: I'd consider re-installing
[03:33] <Xcerca> woden_ you can just open the file location in the file browser nautilus,   i would check the forum
[03:33] <tritium> woden_: no, I'm giving you some general guidance
[03:34] <ThePlastikJesus> is there a way to do a disk cleanup in ubuntu like you would do in windows?
[03:34] <tritium> !pm | lifeistoenjoy
[03:34] <Yamikuronue> gnutron: alright, will do.
[03:34] <Chrisie> woden_: ahh, well I'm still on uBuntu Hardy. But at least here it's the "Removable Drives and Media Preferences" dialogue you want from the System->Preferences menu. My Digital camera import is set to: gnome-volume-manager-gthumb %h
[03:34] <slayerboyWRK> woden_: check http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=233037
[03:35] <McCallister> In xchat, is there an easy way to reply to a user without have to type their full name?
[03:35] <acydlord> start typing their name and hit tab

[03:35] <McCallister> acydlord, thanks!
[03:35] <kreg__> hi, is this a good idea to use ext4 filesystem in nowdays ubuntu 8.04 ?  I want speed, data realibility etc
[03:36] <acydlord> welcome
[03:36] <woden_> Chrisie:  I don't have "Removable Drives and Media Preferences"
[03:36] <rob227> acydlord: can you spare a little help?
[03:36] <izinucs> kreg__, ext4 is not available for Ubuntu yet..
[03:36] <woden_> Does F-Spot come by default in Ubuntu 8.10?
[03:36] <slayerboyWRK> woden_: because you are using a different version of Ubuntu, you have the latest
[03:36] <izinucs> woden_, yes
[03:37] <acydlord> i'm pretty rusty with my also knowledge
[03:37] <rob227> spare any help (or change if you like southpark?)
[03:37] <izinucs> I also don't know much
[03:37] <woden_> Sounds like I should install F-Spot then, since it is supposed to come with Ubuntu 8.10 by default?
[03:37] <asdfg>  southpark is alright
[03:37] <rob227> oh well thought id ask
[03:37] <asdfg>  getting a bit tired though
[03:37] <slayerboyWRK> woden_: it should be installed already
[03:37] <rob227> soundcard problems are killing me
[03:38] <asdfg>  what's the issue?
[03:38] <slayerboyWRK> woden_: check your applications menu
[03:38] <woden_> alright
[03:38] <rob227> left speaker won't work
[03:38] <slayerboyWRK> rob227: laptop or desktop?
[03:38] <rob227> desktop
[03:38] <McCallister> rob227, at least you get sound from your left speaker. I get no sound.
[03:38] <dnyy> Can I install XP after Ubuntu to daulboot, or does Windows need to be first?
[03:39] <izinucs> dnyy, to eliminate headaches.. install win first
[03:39] <tyebud> Is it possible to rename a joystick in the system
[03:39] <slayerboyWRK> dnyy: windows should be first
[03:39] <rob227> what version of ubuntu you running?
[03:39] <tyebud> 8.04
[03:39] <Yamikuronue> dnyy: I tried that earlier. Hence my having to reformat. Windows XP doesn't like non-NTFS disks I think was my problem.
[03:39] <outlaw1> does anyone have experience with ''kino''  for merging mpg files together. i have used ''mpgtx'' and mencoder and ''cat'' with no success ?
[03:39] <deefzi> if someone is familiar with RAID-1 with installing ubuntu, a helping hand would be appreciated here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6339667
[03:39] <slayerboyWRK> Yamikuronue: FAT32 should be fine for WinXP
[03:40] <Yamikuronue> slayerboy: I also might have a bad disk. It kept bluescreening with an error about losing control of the boot partition
[03:40] <rob227> i've decided that my sound card has AIDS in Ubuntu
[03:40] <tritium> rob227: please, have some tact
[03:40] <Yamikuronue> it did that over vista too, though, originally
[03:40] <slayerboyWRK> Yamikuronue: yeah from the sounds, there's something funky going on with your HDD
[03:40] <rob227> sorry just joking
[03:40] <bruenig> rob227: AIDS or super AIDS?
[03:40] <georgy_28> outlaw1, : kino can't do that, work only with DV or avi files. Use Kdenlive
[03:41] <rob227> trying to lighten the problem
[03:41] <rob227> super

[03:41] <Yamikuronue> slayerboyWRK: I meant my install disk >.> the laptop's brand new, I've just been trying to liberate it from vista

[03:41] <izinucs> outlaw1, also try LiVeS!  you'll find it at www.getdeb.net
[03:41] <Yamikuronue> ah, sorry
[03:41] <gnutron> rob227: right click your volume icon choose preferences, does it list your card?
[03:41] <slayerboyWRK> Yamikuronue: try Ultimate Boot Disk and run some tests, then write zeros to the drive 2-3 times, it takes a long time but it cured a problem I had with an old hard drive
[03:42] <slayerboyWRK> Yamikuronue: ah gotcha
[03:42] <rob227> its the ICEnsembler silly. Which is set for -c1
[03:42] <tyebud> How would I copy the results of cat /proc/bus/input/devices into a nano instance via the command line?

[03:42] <kristian_> where can i change the resolution in ubuntu?
[03:42] <outlaw1> izinucs: thank you i'll give it a try now . thanks !
[03:42] <Yamikuronue> gnutron: while I'm reformatting, is there any reason why I should change the partition setup instead of just telling it to reformat the partition I installed to?
[03:42] <gnutron> rob227: right click your volume icon choose preferences, select audigy
[03:43] <izinucs> tyebud, you want it in a txt file?  just add ... > <filename> .... at the end of the line
[03:43] <Yamikuronue> slayerboyWRK: whichever is the normal one ;P my brain's a bit hosed right now
