[02:43] <CyberkillerLapto> the cd drive is bad eh... i havnt had any otehr problems with it before
[02:43] <fistandantilus> buffer i/o errors are almost always the drive, especially if you've checked the CD
[02:43] <nocarrier> Slasher: heh... yea
[02:43] <blabit> AAA not sure what that means, can i message you?
[02:43] <CyberkillerLapto> i see...
[02:43] <AAA> blabit  no. does your computer see the drive before the OS starts?
[02:43] <yozBuntu> did something odd happen with Xgl + compiz + cgwd this weekend
[02:43] <CyberkillerLapto> is there a way around that? im guessing no right
[02:43] <blabit> yes, it does see the drive before ubuntu starts
[02:43] <fistandantilus> #ubuntu-xgl would know
[02:43] <threeonefour> didn't work
[02:43] <Section12> yozBuntu: Like?
[02:44] <yozBuntu> fist, thanks
[02:44] <Slasher> gimme one sec, i'll reboot my machine again without the quiet param
[02:44] <AAA> blabit  sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdb (in a terminal)
[02:44] <blabit> AAA, sudo?
[02:44] <FurryNemesis> yozBuntu:  cgw won't update for me either but so far it's not a problem for me
[02:44] <fistandantilus> CyberkillerLapto: if the ide=nodma doesnt work i dont know, the drive IS ide right?
[02:44] <Aberrant22> !sudo
[02:44] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:44] <CyberkillerLapto> uhhh, i don't know?
[02:44] <visik7> !main
[02:44] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[02:44] <micahcowan> blabit, he means type that whole line, "sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdb" in a terminal, and then type your password in.
[02:44] <threeonefour> aaa  Error: given UDI is not a mountable volume
[02:44] <yozBuntu> i got cgwd 0.4 installed with cgwd-themes
[02:44] <AAA> blabit  yes btw you can man <any command you type> and get lots of info about the command It is the 'manual'
[02:44] <nocarrier> !expect
[02:44] <ubotu> I know nothing about expect - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[02:44] <nocarrier> hehe
[02:44] <nocarrier> !nothing
[02:44] <yozBuntu> but i don't know how to 'activate' any of the themes in the 'cgwd themer' that shows up in preferences
[02:44] <ubotu> I know nothing about nothing - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[02:45] <CyberkillerLapto> are we talking about hardrive or CD drive?
[02:45] <nocarrier> lol
[02:45] <fistandantilus> CyberkillerLapto: cd drive
[02:45] <yozBuntu> i don't know what i'm missing here
[02:45] <CyberkillerLapto> oh, eah i don't know
[02:45] <CyberkillerLapto> how do i tell?
[02:45] <DanaG> If I install a new kernel, will it make things like modules-<version>, or just "modules"?
[02:45] <CyberkillerLapto> yeah*
[02:45] <blabit> AAA, how do i open a terminal (sorry, its all new to me)
[02:45] <FurryNemesis> yozBuntu:  what about compiz themer?
[02:45] <AAA> threeonefour  change vfat to fat12 in your fstab
[02:45] <yozBuntu> furry, yea that'd be nice, where do i find it?
[02:45] <micahcowan> blabit, Applications > Accessories > Terminal
[02:45] <fistandantilus> CyberkillerLapto: as  far as i can tell the install hasnt even gotten near the harddrive yet, its erroring long before that
[02:45] <threeonefour> ok
[02:45] <yozBuntu> like i tried to install gcompiz-themer
[02:45] <yozBuntu> and it says that cgwd replaces it
[02:46] <AAA> blabit  it is in menu under system
[02:46] <micahcowan> blabit, then take the results and paste it using paste.ubuntu-nl.com, and give us the link.
[02:46] <CyberkillerLapto> hmm
[02:46] <DanaG> cgwd includes its own gcompiz-themer.
[02:46] <nocarrier> DanaG: it will make a new directory in /lib/modules
[02:46] <fistandantilus> yozBuntu: ive heard it does, theme switching is integrated into cgwd now
[02:46] <yozBuntu> right so
[02:46] <Blinker> blabit: it might be handy for you to right click the terminal icon, and "add to launcher panel"
[02:46] <yozBuntu> how do i actually use any of the themes in cgwd ?
[02:46] <FurryNemesis> yozBuntu:  should be in system>preferences - you might have to muck around with Alacarte menu editor to see it, but if you can't even after doing that then you've installed a different way to me.
[02:46] <CyberkillerLapto> So is there a way around it, or a way to tell what my drive is and a differnt comamnd line i can use?
[02:46] <yozBuntu> like i see them all there
[02:46] <Slasher> nocarrier, what it does is the live cd will start booting and then it starts spamming "[####.####]  cdrom: open failed"
[02:46] <UbuntuJulez> hi there! :-) Ubuntu Rulez, just so you all know LOL
[02:46] <UbuntuJulez> btw, trying to figure out how to change my mouse pointer
[02:46] <Slasher> and finaly it drops back to ash
[02:46] <fistandantilus> CyberkillerLapto: ide=nodma is the big one, if your drive wont read the cd i dont really know from there
[02:46] <yozBuntu> i'm in 'cgwd themer 0.4' right now, and i see all the themes listed
[02:47] <yozBuntu> so what do i do to make any of them active?
[02:47] <DanaG> will it just be /lib/modules or will it be /lib/modules-2.6.17-7?
[02:47] <CyberkillerLapto> hmm
[02:47] <fistandantilus> yozBuntu: tried right click?
[02:47] <yozBuntu> how does this tie into system -> preferences -> theme?
[02:47] <yozBuntu> fist, yea
[02:47] <CyberkillerLapto> is there any workaround, such as going straight to install, or can you only get to install through live?
[02:47] <fistandantilus> hmm i was talking to someone earlier about it and i forgot how he said he was changing themes, i dont run xgl/compiz myself
[02:47] <blabit> Ok, pasted that line in a terminal, and entered my password, nothing happened...am I doing something wrong?
[02:47] <DanaG> You can do "oem install"
[02:48] <threeonefour> AAA still didn't work
[02:48] <CyberkillerLapto> oen install?
[02:48] <nocarrier> Slasher: does it eventually panic?
[02:48] <CyberkillerLapto> er
[02:48] <CyberkillerLapto> oem*
[02:48] <Aberrant22> is there a way to clear the logs or just search for errors from my last reboot?  I'm trying to diagnose a problem with samba not starting properly
[02:48] <DanaG> It's on the LiveDVD menu, at least.
[02:48] <DanaG> I haven't tried the CD.
[02:48] <AAA> blabit  change the hdb to hdd
[02:48] <fistandantilus> CyberkillerLapto: there is an 'alternate' cd iso, but you may not get any farther with that error
[02:48] <CyberkillerLapto> hmm
[02:48] <AAA> threeonefour  but you can mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy ?
[02:48] <Slasher> nocarrier, it used but it doesn't look like it does anymore
[02:48] <micahcowan> AAA, threeonefour, I think he needs to leave it vfat, but add the option fat=12 (if applicable). But vfat should already detect if that's necessary...
[02:48] <blabit> AAA, still nothing.
[02:48] <nocarrier> Slasher: have you tried another drive
[02:49] <nocarrier> ?
[02:49] <AAA> blabit  dmesg|grep hd
[02:49] <gershon> cgwd themer 4.0 ?
[02:49] <micahcowan> threeonefour, can you paste your current ftab again, but this time read the following:
[02:49] <micahcowan> !paste
[02:49] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[02:49] <CyberkillerLapto> i wish i didnt have to gothrough live for installing
[02:49] <Slasher> nocarrier, this is from the live cd
[02:49] <fistandantilus> CyberkillerLapto: alternate cd skips live, its a text install
[02:49] <AAA> nocarrier  do you see anything other than hda and hdc
[02:49] <UbuntuJulez> !mouse poitners
[02:49] <ubotu> I know nothing about mouse poitners - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[02:49] <UbuntuJulez> !mouse pointers
[02:49] <ubotu> I know nothing about mouse pointers - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[02:49] <CyberkillerLapto> Does it matter that i burned it to a DVD? does it have to be a CD?
[02:49] <AAA> nocarrier  it is IDE?
[02:49] <blabit> AAA, got a bunch of code what do I do with that?
[02:50] <UbuntuJulez> !cursors
[02:50] <ubotu> I know nothing about cursors - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[02:50] <micahcowan> UbuntuJulez, I don't think you're gonna find it there (and you should never investigate the bot on-list)
[02:50] <threeonefour> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19906
[02:50] <fistandantilus> CyberkillerLapto: its a cd iso .. i dont see how that could be good but i cant say for sure thats the problem
[02:50] <AAA> blabit  look for stuff like device hda seagate blah
[02:50] <nocarrier> AAA: what are you talking about?
[02:50] <micahcowan> Ubugtu, it's fairly esoteric knowledge, I believe... :(
[02:50] <CyberkillerLapto> ah.. well ill try reburning it with a CD
[02:50] <AAA> nocarrier  finding his lost drive
[02:50] <nocarrier> Slasher: i know... have you tried using another drive to boot from...
[02:50] <|thunder> can mythTV be installed and usable with apt in dapper ? Ive got a hauppage dual tuner card.
[02:50] <micahcowan> UbuntuJulez, ^^ (not Ubugtu, sheesh!)
[02:51] <UbuntuJulez> well i have some pointers I have downloaded but the gnome theme manager doesn't seem to let you control it and the mouse pointer applet doesn't let you drop files into it
[02:51] <[Ex0r] > |thunder- yes it can
[02:51] <threeonefour> AAA did u get that
[02:51] <micahcowan> UbuntuJulez, where they specifically for linux/gnome?
[02:51] <UbuntuJulez> yes
[02:51] <UbuntuJulez> from gnome-art.org
[02:51] <|thunder> soop, I can just apt-get install mythtv and it'll work ?
[02:51] <fistandantilus> UbuntuJulez: ive found if they are in the right format, untar and move the cursor dir you have to ~/.icons, restart cursor manager and it should be there
[02:51] <|thunder> er4z0r, *so, I can **
[02:51] <blabit> AAA Hda and hdC are both ATA drives.....is that what you mean?
[02:51] <|thunder> fuck
[02:51] <|thunder> darned auto complete
[02:52] <UbuntuJulez> icons?
[02:52] <Slasher> nocarrier, I'll try to download the proper live dvd, rightnot it's the cd burned as a dvd, I only have 1 dvd drive and i lack blank cd's
[02:52] <UbuntuJulez> really?
[02:52] <[Ex0r] > |thunder- you can, but it's the old mythtv version. You should stop by #mythtv-users to get an unofficial universe link to use for apt.
[02:52] <nocarrier> Slasher: yea... try that first...
[02:52] <fistandantilus> UbuntuJulez: yup, they all go in the same place .. if you open the dir through the cursor manager you'll find thats where they go anyway
[02:52] <Phantom784> hi.  i changed the "driver" line under "device" in xorg.conf in order to try to get direct hardware access on my ati rage 128 to work, but ubuntu won't open x any more.  i changed the line back, but the problem won't go away.
[02:52] <|thunder> thanks [Ex0r]
[02:52] <[Ex0r] > sure thing
[02:52] <[Ex0r] > take care
[02:52] <AAA> threeonefour  and you created /mnt/floppy ? ls -ld /mnt/floppy
[02:52] <blabit> AAA, did that make sense?
[02:52] <Slasher> nocarrier, is there dedicated hosting for the live dvd or is it all torrents?
[02:53] <threeonefour> micahcowan, AAA,  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19906
[02:53] <AAA> blabit  yes, and the other drive is the slave on the first channel?
[02:53] <ucordes> anybody checked out the new blur function in latest xgl-compiz release?
[02:53] <blabit> AAA, yes I think so.
[02:53] <AAA> blabit  if so, you should have an /dev/hdb
[02:53] <blabit> what is that?
[02:53] <threeonefour> aaa what
[02:53] <AAA> blabit  you got nothing in return when you did sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdb
[02:53] <micahcowan> AAA, fat12 isn't a valid filesystem type: you have to provide it as an option.
[02:54] <blabit> let me try again.
[02:54] <blabit> AAA, nothing
[02:54] <blabit> The second drive is the master on IDE 2 I believe
[02:54] <AAA> micahcowan  yeah, threeonefour change it to vfat and did you make /mnt/floppy ??
[02:54] <nocarrier> Slasher: yes, download from http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu//6.06/
[02:55] <AAA> blabit  and the drive is spinning and good and connected proper
[02:55] <fistandantilus> umn.edu, woo!
[02:55] <blabit> Yes sir.
[02:55] <Slasher> nocarrier, thank you
[02:55] <fiveiron> whats a good backup solution for linux?
[02:55] <UbuntuJulez> how do you browse to a ~/. directory
[02:55] <blabit> Should I try to reformat it?
[02:55] <DarkAudit> finally fixed my applications font issue... it wasn't changing no matter what I did
[02:55] <nocarrier> Slasher: np
[02:55] <blabit> I think it may be NTFS
[02:55] <AAA> blabit  you have to find it to format it =p
[02:55] <micahcowan> threeonefour, when you've changed it back and saved /etc/fstab, try running the command "mount /mnt/floppy", and give us the output from that command
[02:55] <blabit> AAA good point
[02:55] <fistandantilus> UbuntuJulez: in nautilus? you need to go to view and click 'show hidden files'
[02:55] <fiveiron> UbuntuJulez, cd ~/.whatever_the_dir_name_is
[02:55] <fiveiron> oh
[02:55] <fiveiron> lol n
[02:55] <AAA> blabit  you did run that with sudo right
[02:55] <fiveiron> nm
[02:56] <FurryNemesis> test
[02:56] <UbuntuJulez> in nautilus, have hidden files already supposed to be showing
[02:56] <DarkAudit> gtk2-engines-gtk-qt put a gtk2rc file in tha locked the Applications font setting in GNOME, even though it was meant only for use in KDE
[02:56] <blabit> AAA I am not really clear on what you mean....I pasted the sudo code into the terminal....and hit return, got nothing
[02:56] <fistandantilus> UbuntuJulez: it should be right in your home dir then ~ = tilde = shortcut to home user dir
[02:56] <Blinker> erm. when using apt-get, I get the following errors.  E: Could not open lock file /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (13 Permission denied) E: Unable to lock the download directory
[02:56] <Blinker> anyone know how to solve this?
[02:56] <micahcowan> blabit, when that happens, it usually indicates that there's no device there. Are you sure /dev/hdb is the right one?
[02:56] <AAA> blabit  and it asked you for your password?
[02:57] <UbuntuJulez> thanks
[02:57] <threeonefour> micahcowan, AAA, mount: only root can mount /dev/fd0 on /mnt/floppy
[02:57] <threeonefour>       but i am root
[02:57] <UbuntuJulez> i guess after you tell nautilus to show hidden files you have to close it and reopen it
[02:57] <blabit> AAA, what is the code again...I will give it one more shot
[02:57] <AAA> micahcowan  he said it was hooked up on the primary as slave on IDE
[02:57] <AAA> blabit  sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdb
[02:58] <AAA> threeonefour  sudo
[02:58] <blabit> AAA just tried it and it went directly to a cursor, did not ask for a psswrd
[02:58] <UbuntuJulez> it really amazes me how many themes on gnomelook are designed to look like window$
[02:58] <yozBuntu> well i'm getting a lot of blanks in #ubuntu-xgl ;)
[02:58] <UbuntuJulez> its like..uhh..WHY/
[02:58] <fistandantilus> UbuntuJulez: yeah sucks doesnt it ;)
[02:58] <yozBuntu> s/blanks/blank stares/
[02:58] <micahcowan> UbuntuJulez, yeah, exactly... I tend to avoid those...
[02:58] <yozBuntu> if i could figure out why clicking themes in cgwd doesn't actually do anything.
[02:58] <fistandantilus> half of them look like vista *honk*
[02:58] <yozBuntu> it doesn't change the screen in any way
[02:58] <doughboy> I was wondering if there are any advantages to disable SSID broadcast on a wireless router? Anybody know?
[02:59] <AAA> blabit  try that with /dev/hdd and /dev/sda /dev/sdb/
[02:59] <Aberrant22> UbuntuJulez: That way I can sneak Ubuntu on my parents without them realizing it
[02:59] <Blinker> doughboy: added security
[02:59] <UbuntuJulez> Aberrant22, that is funny
[02:59] <fistandantilus> haha
[02:59] <yozBuntu> doughboy, harder to try to attack your network that way
[02:59] <UbuntuJulez> i already switched my parents
[02:59] <threeonefour> ok that worked but will that work all the time or will i have to do that every time
[02:59] <yozBuntu> if you can't see the name of the network its harder to get to you ;)
[02:59] <UbuntuJulez> now..no more tech support calls at 2am or in the middle of sex
[02:59] <AAA> blabit  just arrow up and backspace and change (you can use tab to complete the line for your)
[02:59] <Aberrant22> UbuntuJulez: I've been trying.  My mom was running win98 until six months ago
[02:59] <txx2> Hello, I'm currently editing grub (.list) file for Ubuntu, but it doesn't seem to work. It's on my main hardd rive (only one in my laptop) it's on hda2 and it's 6.10 with standard kernel, can someone please PM me the right config line?.. Thank you.
[02:59] <yozBuntu> unfortunately i've also seen where windows XP won't latch to a wifi network if you don't SSID broadcast initially.
[02:59] <yozBuntu> don't know if it's the same in linux land
[03:00] <fistandantilus> thats XP's fault
[03:00] <fistandantilus> works finee in linux
[03:00] <fistandantilus> im running wifi without ESSID right now
[03:00] <UbuntuJulez> Ubuntu
[03:00] <yozBuntu> fist, yea even if i tell it exactly what the name is and everything
[03:00] <UbuntuJulez> geez..can't spell
[03:00] <yozBuntu> it still won't latch until i SSID broadcast at least once.
[03:00] <yozBuntu> stupid. ;)
[03:00] <fistandantilus> wierd
[03:00] <blabit> AAA, tried both of those and still did not prompt for a psswrd
[03:00] <eternaljoy> does anyone have a Wave or Audio file how to pronounce Linux and Ubuntu?  preferbly from Linus Torvalds
[03:01] <threeonefour> AAA will that work all the time or will i have to do it every time
[03:01] <micahcowan> UbuntuJulez, "he"? Julez sounds like a version of Julie...
[03:01] <AAA> blabit  that is normal. did you get any output?
[03:01] <fistandantilus> eternaljoy: ubuntu is right on the front web page, ooh boon too
[03:01] <blabit> nothing but a prompt
[03:01] <UbuntuJulez> micahcowan, yes "HE"
[03:01] <txx2> eternaljoy,  that's on wikipedia.org
[03:01] <UbuntuJulez> my name is Julien
[03:01] <Kookookapo1> Does anyone know how to replace windows booter with GRUB?
[03:01] <Phantom784> eternaljoy: i think theres one for "linux" on wikipedia
[03:01] <eternaljoy> txx2: audio files?
[03:01] <AAA> threeonefour  just mount /mnt/floppy
[03:01] <sparkleytone> can anyone recommend a good, lightweight, easily manageable yet still sexy wiki server?
[03:01] <eternaljoy> Phantom784: audio files?
[03:01] <fistandantilus> linus says it lee nux
[03:01] <txx2> eternaljoy,  Yes, I wouldn't say it for nothing
[03:01] <threeonefour> ok thx
[03:01] <uber_mort> Hi all, my buddy just installed Ubuntu and got his nvidia drivers working, but now his fonts look pretty bad.    NO Windows installed.
[03:04] <Flannel> no.  Linux is not LINE-ux.  linus is however.  http://www.paul.sladen.org/pronunciation/
[03:04] <BobSongs> Yeah; I pronounce it LIE-nix
[03:05] <AAA> blabit  damnit! then sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdc
[03:05] <AAA> that is most ppl's cdroms
[03:05] <fistandantilus> i pronounce like it looks.
[03:05] <blabit> AAA......I don't understand what your saying...sorry
[03:05] <txx2> What's the standard config line for grub, for ubuntu 6.10?
[03:05] <visik7> !main
[03:05] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[03:05] <micahcowan> UbuntuJulez, aw, hey now... I'm not the one who chose to refer to myself as "Julez"...
[03:05] <micahcowan> :)
[03:05] <AAA> that quote was the old redhat-sound-config test sound of Linus saying that
[03:06] <robertj> AAA: thanks
[03:06] <fistandantilus> UbuntuJulez: some of them dont stick to the standard so they wont work just dragged in ;/
[03:06] <AAA> blabit  sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdc
[03:06] <UbuntuJulez> micahcowan, been my nickname for years
[03:06] <UbuntuJulez> never heard a girl named Julie go by Julez
[03:06] <blabit> AAA, just did that, and Got some output..what do I do with it?
[03:06] <UbuntuJulez> but i'm one of those geeks who names everything with a "z" on the end
[03:06] <AAA> blabit  well, you could put it in pastebin
[03:06] <micahcowan> UbuntuJulez, Funny how /everyone/ wishing to poke fun at my name latches onto the COW bit... my brother actually has a site he called "Mad COWan"... huh!
[03:07] <blabit> what is pastebin?
[03:07] <micahcowan> Ubugtu, yeah, I've known a few.
[03:07] <eternaljoy> can someone record a wave file for me how to properly say and pronounce Ubuntu?
[03:07] <AAA> blabit  along with the output of mount

[03:07] <eternaljoy> BobSongs: can you record it?
[03:07] <ian_> Question: I keep trying to install Ubuntu on a new computer and I get an error saying that writing to /dev/ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0/disc is not possible...
[03:07] <blabit> AAA, output of mount?  I dn't know what that means?
[03:07] <micahcowan> UbuntuJulez, sorry, not Ubugtu (it keeps completing your name as the bot, due to my negligence)
[03:07] <UbuntuJulez> what are the guidelines for new gdm screens? the last tim ei used a cusotm one, i'd get a black screen about every 3rd boot
[03:08] <UbuntuJulez> hahah
[03:08] <BobSongs> eternaljoy, Well. I could. But I'm fairly new at IRC and would have no idea how to up the file to you. Are you running Dapper Drake?
[03:08] <AAA> blabit  type mount in the same terminal as you typed sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdc and paste it all there
[03:08] <coded1> I'm having a problem with ndiswrapper-1.22, when I try to install the drivers "ndiswrapper -i <driver name>
[03:08] <blabit> AAA, past it all where?
[03:08] <AAA> BobSongs  netcat =p
[03:08] <coded1> it gives me an error "could not copy"
[03:08] <eternaljoy> BobSongs: dont worry then :P
[03:09] <AAA> !tell blabit about pastebin
[03:09] <p3980> coded1: are you running your command as root?
[03:09] <blabit> What is pastebin?
[03:09] <coded1> when I copy it manually to /etc/ndiswrapper/wusb54g, remove the driver (-e) and re-install it deletes the files from that directory
[03:09] <shinobi2> how do i make a flash web page? which apt do i need?
[03:09] <blabit> sorry for being a pain......
[03:09] <philippe_> Hi
[03:09] <UbuntuJulez> after spending almost hte whole weekend trying to figure out how to install it
[03:09] <coded1> yup all as root
[03:09] <micahcowan> blabit, look up a bit for the ubotu quote about pastebin.
[03:10] <^TROUBLE^> hello all
[03:10] <p3980> coded1: is your adapter a linksys adapter?
[03:10] <txx2> does anyone know the config line for 6.10 in grub?
[03:10] <philippe_> i would like to know if someone has already installed wow correctly with wine
[03:10] <coded1> this is the guide I'm using >>http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=225206
[03:10] <^TROUBLE^> who here owns the channel helper bot (bot that responds to !commands)
[03:10] <Kookookapo1> how do i install a tar.bz2?
[03:10] <txx2> Kookookapo1,  make install
[03:10] <txx2> i think
[03:11] <micahcowan> ^TROUBLE^, he's sorta an "official" bot. There are operators... I think most of the ops also have access to the bot.
[03:11] <AAA> Kookookapo1  you have to unpack it first :: tar jxvf file.tar.bz2 then compile it usually
[03:11] <txx2> Kookookapo1,  complain to ubuntu forums for not having a nice GUI installer for all zipped files.
[03:11] <blabit> AAA, it is on pastebin.....now what?
[03:11] <coded1> the guide sais to copy the files manually over the files but ndiswrapper just deletes the whole directory each time
[03:11] <AAA> blabit  paste the link to it please :)
[03:11] <p3980> philippe_: according to wine appdb, WOW works excellently with wine on Dapper
[03:11] <blabit> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19907
[03:11] <^TROUBLE^> reason why im asking is because i have 2 egg bots and would like to have an addon simuler to that they have here for mine
[03:12] <BobSongs> eternaljoy, No prob.
[03:12] <BobSongs> eternaljoy, Sorry. Noob here.
[03:12] <blabit> Like that?
[03:12] <txx2>  does anyone know the config line for 6.10 in grub?
[03:12] <|thunder> anyone know where the Firmware files are to be stored in dapper? i want to install ivtv
[03:12] <txx2>  does anyone know the config line for 6.10 in grub?
[03:13] <txx2> some lazy people in this channel i see
[03:13] <|thunder> txx2, 6.10 what ?
[03:13] <txx2> ubuntu 6.10
[03:13] <AAA> well blabit it looks like there is not a filesystem on your drive
[03:13] <micahcowan> !ubotu > ^TROUBLE^
[03:13] <ubotu> I know nothing about > ^TROUBLE^ - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[03:13] <philippe_> p3980 ok thankx
[03:13] <txx2> the grub line in the config file in DOT.list
[03:13] <ian_> Question: I keep trying to install Ubuntu on a new computer and I get an error saying that writing to /dev/ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0/disc is not possible...
[03:13] <blabit> AAA, so how do I set that up?
[03:13] <^TROUBLE^> im looking to make a helper bot one that will respond to users with !specific commands and bot replies to those uers with msgs
[03:13] <AAA> blabit  are you sure it is ntfs formatted?
[03:13] <blabit> Can I just reformat it?
[03:13] <UbuntuJulez> !you
[03:13] <ubotu> I know nothing about you - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[03:14] <garryF> The config lines are probably similar if not the same, it depends on the version of grub not the linux version.
[03:14] <AAA> blabit  use cfdisk /dev/hdc and create a new ext3 partition on the whole drive

[03:14] <UbuntuJulez> hrm, it seems the unofficial ubuntu guide is down
[03:14] <micahcowan> ^TROUBLE^, the above links might be interesting to you...
[03:14] <blabit> AAA, just paste that into a terminal?
[03:14] <^TROUBLE^> ty
[03:14] <AAA> blabit  cfdisk /dev/hdc
[03:14] <micahcowan> Ubugtu, which ones? the links on the <bang>ubotu bit seem to work for me...
[03:14] <micahcowan> UbuntuJulez, gah
[03:15] <blabit> AAA, gives me a fatal error
[03:15] <micahcowan> like the fifth time... :/
[03:15] <AAA> blabit  use sudo cfdisk /dev/hdc
[03:15] <blabit> AAA, should I make it bootable?
[03:16] <Booge> what file do you edit to change your resolution in X?
[03:16] <AAA> blabit  no
[03:17] <jimcooncat> installing ubuntu-minimal to upgrade a previous sarge install. have a config problem...
[03:17] <blabit> AAA, so what do I do then?
[03:17] <micahcowan> Booge, /etc/X11/xorg.conf; but you may have good luck with System > Preferences > Screen Resolution
[03:17] <p3980> jimcoonat: what's the issue
[03:17] <Booge> micahcowan i can't even load X
[03:17] <jimcooncat> /etc/pango/aliases can now be managed by defoma. Do you want to entrust font management to defoma?
[03:17] <p3980> Booge, then edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:17] <visik7> how can I compile resticted modules for a custom kernel ?
[03:17] <blabit> AAA, Primary or ligical partition?
[03:17] <jimcooncat> its a configuration prompt
[03:17] <micahcowan> Booge, whoops! Are you sure resolution is the issue?
[03:17] <jimcooncat> options are yes or no
[03:17] <p3980> jimcooncat, what's the prompt say?
[03:17] <AAA> blabit  primary
[03:17] <jimcooncat> yes seems to be default
[03:18] <p3980> jimcoonat, what ddoes the prompt say
[03:18] <p3980> does*
[03:18] <blabit> AAA, I set it to primary, and maximum space, now what?

[03:18] <Tsukino> anyone in here know how to edit acpi settings in Gnome?
[03:18] <jimcooncat> If you say yes here, /etc/pango/pangox.aliases will be a symbolic link to /var/lib/defoma/pango.d/pango.aliases
[03:18] <micahcowan> Booge, when you edit the xorg.conf file, you want the lines that starts with the word "Modes", and try removing the first resolution from each Modes line.

[03:19] <eternaljoy> 'li' is pronounced with a short [ee]  sound: compare prInt, mInImal etc.
[03:19] <eternaljoy> 'nux' is also short, non-diphtong, like in pUt.  It's partly due to
[03:19] <eternaljoy> minix: linux was just my working name for the thing, and as I wrote it
[03:19] <eternaljoy> to replace minix on my system, the result is what it is...  linus' minix
[03:19] <eternaljoy> became linux.   <-- Linus
[03:19] <Booge> it says Failed to start the X server (your graphical interface) It is likely that it is not set up correctly.  You will need to log in ona a console and reconfigure the X server. Then restart GDM
[03:19] <p3980> jimcooncat, just click OK
[03:19] <garryF> !build-essential
[03:19] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[03:19] <jimcooncat> so is a regular dapper install use a symbolic link?
[03:19] <Tennessee> Hi all, I've got a weird X problem that I don't  think is related to my xorg.conf. The machine boots with my second monitor at the correct resolution -- I can move my mouse over to screen 2 at the graphical login. However, after I login the screen resets and the second screen is no longer used.
[03:19] <Tennessee> Any suggestions?
[03:19] <p3980> jimcooncat, mine does, yes
[03:19] <blabit> AAA, I have created the partition......do I just close cfdisk? and the drive will be there?
[03:19] <micahcowan> eternaljoy, Actually, his name is LEE-noos, so it's LEE-nooks.
[03:19] <jimcooncat> wait I got one, i can check it out myself
[03:19] <AAA> blabit  then your need to > sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdc1
[03:19] <jimcooncat> p3980, thanks
[03:19] <micahcowan> eternaljoy, but /nobody/ pronounces it like that.
[03:19] <AAA> blabit  then your need to > sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdc1
[03:19] <eternaljoy> micahcowan: Linus does :)
[03:20] <fistandantilus> and no one cares either
[03:20] <p3980> Tennessee, do you have it configured for multi-monitor support
[03:20] <p3980> jimcooncat, welcome
[03:20] <micahcowan> Everyone else does lihn-uks (the way you described)
[03:20] <jimcooncat> p3980, that was some stuff I never got into before, glad you were here
[03:20] <eternaljoy> micahcowan: how you prounce it? can you record it?
[03:20] <p3980> jimcooncat, don't mention it
[03:20] <eternaljoy> micahcowan: record it and send me?
[03:20] <micahcowan> Many people I know call him Lie-nuss, anyway...
[03:20] <micahcowan> I do it the same way you described. :-)
[03:20] <Tsukino> my old supervisor in the college computer lab used to pronouce it lie-nux
[03:20] <digitalpenguin> anyone able to tell me why after i just re-installed ubuntu that i am still getting errors about : clvm,redhat-cluster-suite,and system-config-cluster
[03:20] <blabit> AAA, that command did not work, says drive does not exist
[03:20] <Tennessee> p3980: define "it".  I *was* meddling with the resolution settings trying (successfully) to get the projector working. I can't, however, find any obvious candidates for what might be going on here. Like I said, outside of xorg.conf which I think is correct, I don't know where else to look.
[03:22] <eternaljoy> fistandantilus: ok np
[03:22] <eternaljoy> brb
[03:22] <micahcowan> sorry...
[03:22] <blabit> AAA wrote the partition and now it is saying it is not bootable....what command now?
[03:22] <p3980> Tennessee, did you have to do any configuration to get it to work in the first place, and what display manager are you using
[03:23] <Tennessee> p3980: Outside of configuring xorg.conf, there was nothing additional that I had to do. I'm using gdm.
[03:23] <AAA> blabit  quit and run sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdc1
[03:23] <blabit> AAA, done.
[03:23] <p3980> Tennesse: Have you tried logging into KDE as well... does it do the same thing as it does after you login into gnome?
[03:24] <Tsukino> anyone in here know how to edit acpi settings in Gnome? my throttling is off and my laptop just runs a fair bit hotter than in Windows =(
[03:24] <blabit> AAA, back to a promt...now what?
[03:24] <simon___> Hello, I just installed the nvidia binary driver and now when I try to start X it just doesn't start. What can I do/check to fix this?
[03:24] <digitalpenguin> anyone able to tell me why after i just re-installed ubuntu that i am still getting errors about : clvm,redhat-cluster-suite,and system-config-cluster
[03:24] <AAA> blabit  sudo mkdir /mnt/whateveryouwanttonameit
[03:24] <Tennessee> p3980: That would be a good test, but I don't have KDE installed. If I can't work it out, I could try that. I could also just try as another user to see if it's in my user's configuration but haven't yet.
[03:24] <bnD> can anyone help me out? as root i extracted the vmware server and got a bunch of errors along the lines of 'cannot create symlink' and 'cannot change ownership'
[03:24] <AAA> blabit  then sudo mount /dev/hdc1 /mnt/thatname
[03:25] <p3980> Tennessee: sudo apt-get install kubuntu
[03:25] <AAA> blabit  there is still one more step
[03:25] <p3980> Tennessee: then reboot and try KDE... if that fails, try another users profile (so we can isolate the issue)
[03:25] <phasegen> I have a tough one if anyone feels up to it.
[03:25] <garryF> Tennessee: I've seen this behavior when two monitors have been installed, but the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf is set to use the primary monitor and only that one. It shows signal output to the secondary but shuts that off on login.
[03:25] <AAA> phasegen  bah ;>
[03:25] <h8red> mount: block device /dev/hdd is write-protected, mounting read-only problem on my cd drive now, someone please help
[03:26] <p3980> phasegen: continue
[03:26] <simon___> Anyone? I don't have access to another pc until tomorrow so anyhelp would be really appreciated =(
[03:26] <blabit> AAA mounted....anything else I need to do?
[03:26] <digitalpenguin> phasegen: is it tougher then mine
[03:26] <AAA> h8red  it is not rightable
[03:26] <AAA> blabit  yeah, you need to do _exactly_ what I tell you here
[03:26] <Tennessee> garryF: Interesting... Is there any way to determine which of the xorg.conf modes is currently being used?
[03:26] <OtavioRibeiro> simon_
[03:26] <blabit> AAA, so what next?
[03:26] <OtavioRibeiro> i've had the same problem
[03:26] <AAA> blabit  vim /etc/fstab and then arrow down to the bottom of the file
[03:27] <simon___> OtavioRibeiro: how did you fix it?
[03:27] <OtavioRibeiro> check where the X nvidea driver has been installed
[03:27] <AAA> blabit  sudo vim /etc/fstab
[03:27] <h8red> AAA: what does that mean?
[03:27] <phasegen> I'm trying to find the name an app (azureus) uses to identify itself when establishing a udp connection through my router firewall
[03:27] <Tennessee> ALL: Thanks, I'm just restarting my system due to the morning's updates. I'll try logging in as a different user at the same time. BRB.
[03:27] <simon___> OtavioRibeiro: how?
[03:27] <AAA> h8red  is it a regular cd?
[03:27] <OtavioRibeiro> simon___ check in /usr/X11R6
[03:27] <h8red> dvd/cd burner
[03:27] <garryF> Tennessee I would take a look at the xorg file and see if it shows two monitor specs. Somewhere you should see a line that you can tell specifies the active monitor and be able to change it.
[03:27] <blabit> AAA, done....next
[03:27] <OtavioRibeiro> simon___ are you using x.org?
[03:27] <simon___> OtavioRibeiro: yes.
[03:27] <AAA> h8red  then your medium is not re-writable
[03:28] <digitalpenguin> anyone able to tell me why after i just re-installed ubuntu that i am still getting errors about : clvm,redhat-cluster-suite,and system-config-cluster
[03:28] <OtavioRibeiro> simon___ nvidea crete the drivers into the XFree directory
[03:28] <AAA> blabit  ok, you are at the bottom of the file.  type yy and then type p
[03:28] <OtavioRibeiro> simon___ you need to copy it to Xorg directory
[03:28] <h8red> AAA: i'm just trying to read a disc
[03:28] <OtavioRibeiro> simon___ manually
[03:28] <AAA> h8red  the ls /mnt/cdrom0
[03:28] <simon___> Hmmm...
[03:28] <AAA> h8red  er ls /media/cdrom0
[03:28] <simon___> exactly where is the XFree86 directory?
[03:28] <OtavioRibeiro> simon___ the directory structure are the same.. just change the location
[03:29] <AAA> blabit  that should have copy and pasted a new line
[03:29] <blabit> AAA, did that
[03:29] <AAA> ok, arrow down to the last line and over to where it says /dev/hda1 and make it say hdc1
[03:29] <OtavioRibeiro> simon___ /usr/X11R6
[03:29] <digitalpenguin> Anyone free to help me with a few small/medium problems
[03:29] <simon___> OtavioRibeiro: and then copy to where?
[03:30] <`Inc> is there a way to login without a password?
[03:30] <OtavioRibeiro> simon___ check it.. i'm on windows now!
[03:30] <AAA> blabit  just put the cursor over the a and type rc
[03:30] <`Inc> for an elderly person who could not remember a password
[03:30] <p3980> digitalpenguin: sure -- query me if it's detailed so you don't clog the channel
[03:30] <OtavioRibeiro> simon___ /usr/lib/Xorg something like that
[03:30] <p3980> Tennessee: any luck?
[03:30] <phasegen> digitalpenguin:  are you sure you cleared the partitions all the way out before you installed?
[03:30] <eternaljoy> digitalpenguin: are you related to analogpenguin?
[03:30] <h8red> AAA: it shows what is on the disc, but how do I access it?
[03:30] <Tennessee> Back. Logging into a different profile fixed the second screen issue, so now I need to know what might have caused that.
[03:30] <digitalpenguin> eternaljoy: nope
[03:30] <digitalpenguin> p3980: how do i query you
[03:30] <AAA> h8red  open it in your file browser and click
[03:30] <Tennessee> I'm guessing I may have set the resolution manually using the user preferences, and that's possible overriding the xorg.conf settings?
[03:31] <p3980> h8red: mv /mnt/cdrom1/filename ~/Desktop/
[03:31] <OtavioRibeiro> simon___ you will have the "driver" and "extensinons" directory as in xfree directory
[03:31] <digitalpenguin> phasegen: yes i did
[03:31] <p3980> digitialpenguin: /query p3980
[03:31] <AAA> blabit  you also have to change the mount point, arrow over to where it says /mnt/
[03:31] <`Inc> man its almost getting as bad as gentoo in here
[03:32] <NickPresta> While this is not directly related to Ubuntu, When trying to update Kubuntu using Adept, I get dependency problems with KDE 3.5.4. After reading, it appears that there are known bugs and such with KDE 3.5.4. Truth?
[03:32] <h8red> when I go to computer(file browser) and click on my cd/dvd drive it gives me that mount error
[03:32] <bnD> i receive permission based errors when untarring vmware from a shared fat32 partition, however when i move the tar to my / partition i get no errors, anyone know how to resolve this? i dont have room to untar it on /
[03:32] <AAA> is it a music cd? do you see files when your ls -l /media/cdrom0/
[03:32] <OtavioRibeiro> simon___ if you check the /usr/X11R6 directory you will see that only nvidia drivers are there
[03:32] <garryF> Tennessee: It would change the xorg.conf to match your desired resolution. If your desired resolution is not in xorg.conf you might need to add it. I think more info can be found at this url. !fixres

[03:33] <h8red> its actually the driver cd for my linksys pci card
[03:33] <h8red> and i can see them when i use ls /media
[03:33] <cius> aren't system calls supposed to be in section 2 of man?
[03:33] <SurfnKid> guys what is the typical or general ALPS device name?
[03:33] <h8red> but when i click to open it in the browser, it fails
[03:34] <AAA> is it a music cd?
[03:34] <phasegen> Anyone know the name azureus uses to identify itself when establishing a udp connection.  My firewall wants to know it.
[03:34] <h8red> AAA: no, its the driver cd for my linksys card
[03:35] <cius> phasegen, the name?  you got a linksys router by chance?
[03:35] <blabit> AAA, can we start that stab command over........i am not following ya
[03:35] <AAA> h8red  ok, ls -l /media/cdrom0/  do you see the files? is there a linux driver on this cd?
[03:35] <phasegen> cius: yup
[03:36] <h8red> AAA: i do see the files, and i was going to use the instructions that i found on ubuntu's forums to use the drivers on that cd
[03:36] <cius> phasegen, you can put anything you want int the name field, thats just teh name you want to associate with the forwarding of that port, afaik it has nothing to do with the actual traffic being forwarded or where its going
[03:36] <AAA> blabit  pastebin what you have in your /etc/fstab right now
[03:36] <cius> phasegen, I just call mine bt
[03:36] <AAA> h8red  ok then you should be able to browse it with ls -lR (that will show you every file and directory)
[03:37] <OtavioRibeiro> simon___ have you find it?
[03:37] <h8red> AAA: but shouldn't i be able to open it in the file browser?
[03:37] <SixtyWatt> Is the ubuntuguide site down?
[03:37] <cius> phasegen, I really think that field is there more to remind you what you're forwarding the port for than anything
[03:37] <AAA> h8red  theoritcally, but see if that command shows you the files first
[03:37] <SixtyWatt> I am unable to get to it.
[03:38] <phasegen> cius: Thanks.  I've tried to find a good faq in the ubuntu wiki for azureus, with no joy.  I had hoped the router was the problem, but now I guess I'm back to the drawing board.
[03:38] <blabit> AAA http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19908
[03:38] <h8red> AAA: i can view the files with that command
[03:39] <AAA> h8red  so find the one you want and cp /media/cdrom0/file ~/
[03:39] <AAA> blabit  geez...  ok r to recover
[03:39] <blabit> AAA HUH?
[03:40] <h8red> AAA: ok, i understand that, but thats kind of a pain in the but to do each time, why can't i view it from the browser?

[03:49] <Quarupted> wow what does all that mean?
[03:49] <thinh> i can only have one programm open becuse i can locate the top menu botton
[03:49] <p3980> Quarupted: for your localip, type ifconfig in a terminal
[03:49] <p3980> and find your connection and look for your local ip
[03:49] <h8red> p3980: ok, i'm totally new to linux, as of today, but I just found out I can browse the cd if I go into filesystem/cdrom, but why do I get that mount error when i go to view from computer?

[03:49] <thinh> anyone help me with compiz? or how to get it back to normal again
[03:49] <p3980> h8red: to be honest, not a clue as it is chmod'd correctly and you can list it

[03:50] <AAA> you can use remote computers X session fairly easily with the -host foo:1 option
[03:50] <h8red> dvd/cd r-rw

[03:51] <SurfnKid> thinh, #ubuntu-xgl or #xgl
[03:51] <Quarupted> AAA: I have no clue what your talking about
[03:51] <Quarupted> AAA: ipconfig command not found
[03:51] <AAA> Quarupted  I was babbling
[03:51] <AAA> Quarupted  ifconfig
[03:52] <bubu1uk> Quarupted: google for it how to tunnel vnc over ssh
[03:52] <bubu1uk> Quarupted: good how to is on gentoo wiki
[03:52] <Tsukino> garryF: my power management window doesn't have any options relating to acpi.
[03:52] <Quarupted> How do I make SSHD run all the time?
[03:53] <AAA> Quarupted  it defaults to start at boot on the install
[03:53] <garryF> !acpi
[03:53] <ubotu> I know nothing about acpi - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[03:53] <yozBuntu> anyone know quick way to get the amount of video RAM you have
[03:53] <AAA> Quarupted  you can configure it in /etc/ssh/
[03:53] <yozBuntu> i don't understand why this is such a hard number to get
[03:53] <garryF> Tsukino I would google for your laptop model + ubuntu + acpi
[03:54] <AAA> xdpyinfo
[03:54] <Quarupted> So I can just do CTR ALT Fx and open another x session on the remote host that would be cool? AAA
[03:54] <AAA> yozBuntu  xdpyinfo
[03:54] <FantasticFoo> so, swap is supposed to be twice the size of your RAM?
[03:54] <AAA> yozBuntu  lspci -vv should also show you
[03:55] <Quarupted> AAA: how do I configure SSHD from /etc/ssh ?
[03:55] <yozBuntu> aaa, xdpyinfo gives me 'maximum request size 16777212 bytes'
[03:55] <yozBuntu> does that mean 16MB video ram ?
[03:55] <imago_> what program/command can i use to extract files from a .dsk disk image
[03:55] <LordDagoth> Hey
[03:55] <garryF> FantasticFoo Lots of folks get by with a swap the same size just fine.
[03:56] <LordDagoth> ubuntu won't start for some reason, any one want to help  me?
[03:56] <moike_> hi
[03:56] <garryF> FantasticFoo but if your memory is low, it might help to have a larger swap.
[03:56] <FantasticFoo> i don't even know what swap DOES - is it kinda like a random-access memory ish thing used by the hard drive, or what?
[03:56] <Bob535> Hello peeps
[03:56] <FantasticFoo> :/
[03:56] <AAA> Quarupted  that is where the config files live but the defaults should work fine
[03:56] <Quarupted> AAA: all thats in that config file is hosts???
[03:56] <imago_> aaa, what program/command can i use to extract files from a .dsk disk image
[03:57] <garryF> Swap is a ram on disk for the OS to use to swap out memory when it needs more. Its a sort of virtual Ram on disk.
[03:57] <moike_> is the ubuntu live cd the same as the "Desktop CD"?
[03:57] <scrappy_> FantasticFoo: think windows page file
[03:57] <phasegen> does ubuntu have a firewall built in and enabled by default?
[03:57] <AAA> Quarupted  /etc/ssh/sshd_conf
[03:57] <Quarupted> Theres not an eas yway to make sshd start at startup?
[03:57] <nathanial> hi folks. I have a question on Linux GAMING>
[03:57] <AAA> Quarupted  /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[03:57] <nathanial> Specifically NEXIUZ
[03:57] <visik7> phasegen: no not enabled by default
[03:57] <Quarupted> AAA: Yes that file like I just said just has host names in it
[03:57] <Bob535> Anyone know how to fix this error? E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. Doing what it says doesnt seem to do anything
[03:57] <LordDagoth> After I log on, ubuntu goes to a brownish screen and won't go any further. anyone know what the deal is?
[03:58] <AAA> Quarupted  like I said, the defaults should be fine, if you want to make tunnels, you'll want to make some custom scripts
[03:58] <garryF> Now try to run whatever you did that got you the interruption.
[03:58] <FantasticFoo> garryF: yeah, that's what i thought
[03:58] <Quarupted> AAA: okay but the question was how to make it start at startup
[03:58] <yozBuntu> aaa, lspci says region 0 memory is 16MB, region 1 memory is 64MB, on the video card
[03:58] <scrappy_> nathanial: ?
[03:59] <garryF> FantasticFoo Yep, you right on target.
[03:59] <yozBuntu> is region 0 the real RAM on card, and region 1 the aperture size?
[03:59] <imago_> what program/command can i use to extract files from a .dsk disk image   any and all help is apperciated
[03:59] <phasegen> visik7:  another dead end.  azureus is kicking my butt.
[03:59] <visik7> phasegen: what's wrong with azureus ?
[03:59] <LordDagoth> anybody want to help me in PM?
[04:00] <Quarupted> Okay anyone know to make a service start at startup?
[04:00] <moike_> is the ubuntu live cd the same as the "Desktop CD"??
[04:00] <nathanial> scrappy, i'm attempting to install Nexuiz on ubuntu
[04:00] <scrappy_> nathanial: thats the first person shooter?
[04:00] <bubu1uk> Quarupted: ssh should start at startup by default
[04:00] <nathanial> I've never installed anythign outside of Synaptic. much less anything in .zip format.
[04:00] <nathanial> scrappy yes
[04:00] <Quarupted> Okay but it doesnt
[04:00] <grai> hi.  is there an easy way to remove (or not install) every package but ubuntu-standard and its dependencies?
[04:00] <garryF> Mounting iso files ... mount -o loop is what's use for mounting an .iso file
[04:00] <alpha255> bubu1uk: what's the command in ubuntu like chkconfig for fedora?
[04:00] <LordDagoth> anybody want to help me in PM?
[04:00] <AAA> Quarupted  it puts it in the startup scripts, look in /etc/rc2.d/ to see what Starts and Kills the number is the order they are processed
[04:00] <p3980> grai: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-standard
[04:00] <garryF> ouch, bad grammar.
[04:01] <scrappy_> nathanial: i downloaded that last week just do unzip filename.zip and then navigate to the directory it creates and run the .sh file to play the game
[04:01] <imago_> what program/command can i use to extract files from a .dsk disk image  anyone
[04:01] <phasegen> visik7: It keeps telling me   UPnP: Mapping 'Incoming Peer Data Port (TCP/49152)' failed.
[04:01] <AAA> Quarupted  you can always /etc/init.d/ssh start|restart|stop
[04:01] <visik7> phasegen: are you behind a nat with an upnp router ?
[04:01] <LordDagoth> After I log on, ubuntu goes to a brownish screen and won't go any further. anyone know what the deal is?
[04:01] <bubu1uk> alpha255: to be honest dont know. started to use ubuntu only little time ago. used fedora and gentoo before
[04:02] <Bob535> Anyone know how to fix this error? E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. Doing what it says doesnt seem to do anything
[04:02] <bubu1uk> well, still using gentoo. just playin with ubuntu to see diferences
[04:02] <scrappy_> nathanial: you might see several .sh files if you paste them i can tell you which to use
[04:02] <LordDagoth> is it possible that I accidentily uninstalled gnome?
[04:02] <OtavioRibeiro> Bob535: try to remove the lock file used by apt inside /var/lock
[04:02] <Quarupted> What does no route to host mean when trying to ssh to another box on local lan?
[04:03] <garryF> Hmmm something missing from that syntax namely the iso filename placement. I would google for the mount ubuntu iso
[04:03] <nathanial> scrappy, i'm downloading now.
[04:03] <imago_> bubuluk, is there a binary for gentoo
[04:03] <AAA> Quarupted  your network is wrong
[04:03] <nathanial> scrappy_, so what is the exact process?
[04:03] <OtavioRibeiro> Bob535:it's something about the lock file... i don't remeber where it is!
[04:03] <LordDagoth> no body wants to help me?
[04:03] <OtavioRibeiro> Bob535: you must delete it
[04:03] <nathanial> scrappy_, open a terminal and navigate to the file, and then type the file name?
[04:03] <phasegen> visik7: yes, but I opened a hole just for azureus, and the indication at the bottom of the program window went from saying there was a NAT problem, to saying there was a firewall problem.
[04:03] <visik7> I wondering if ubuntu 7.04 will be out before vista :D
[04:04] <AAA> Quarupted  try using just the ip of the other computer and add -v to your ssh line
[04:04] <bubu1uk> alpha255: check this for setting up startup services. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootServices?highlight=%28service%29
[04:04] <FantasticFoo> agh, crap
[04:04] <visik7> phazeman: why don't you redirect one port and get rid of upnp ?
[04:04] <FantasticFoo> my ubuntu download froze at 635 mb
[04:04] <scrappy_> nathanial: in terminal use unzip so "unzip filename.zip" this will extract the files to your current directory
[04:04] <alpha255> bubu1uk: thanks! :)
[04:04] <FantasticFoo> it was almost there
[04:04] <OtavioRibeiro> Bob535: you close the apt without finish something? some app break?
[04:04] <Bob535> Deleted the contents
[04:04] <imago_> bubuluk, is there a binary for gentoo
[04:04] <Bob535> app broke while installing flash
[04:04] <OtavioRibeiro> Bob535: no...
[04:04] <void^> phasegen: make sure you actually use sun's jre, and if you forward ports manually, disable upnp in azureus and/or your router
[04:04] <scrappy_> nathanial: or you can doublecick on the file and use fileroller from inside gnome
[04:05] <OtavioRibeiro> Bob535: just the apt one
[04:05] <nathanial> scrappy_ fileroller?
[04:05] <nathanial> scrappy_ i'm completely new to ubuntu/linux
[04:05] <LordDagoth> After I log on, ubuntu goes to a brownish screen and won't go any further. anyone know what the deal is?
[04:05] <OtavioRibeiro> Bob535 check this file /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[04:05] <scrappy_> nathanial: when you doubleclick on the it will ask if you want to open with fileroller think of it like winzip
[04:05] <Bob535> k
[04:05] <nathanial> ok
[04:06] <nathanial> scrappy_ thanks for that. When it finishes, I'll let you know.
[04:06] <scrappy_> nathanial: you have your video card setup?
[04:06] <nathanial> scrappy_ yes

[04:08] <Waterbou> Yes, it still has a strong online community
[04:08] <hackel> Feremi is auto-messaging everyone that enters this chanel advertising a stupid laptop for sale, please kick him.

[04:09] <Bob535> mistform, you can use Cedega to act as a compatibility layer for Windows games
[04:10] <Pulshion> ttyfscker -- how do i give root a pass?
[04:10] <AAA> Quarupted  add a -v and find out why, also don't ssh as root and if you are using a different username use -l otherusername

[04:10] <dle> Hi.  I just ran apt-get update and upgrade, and I have 67 packages waiting to be updated. However I've only seen notices for the kernel and gnupg. Does anyone know why this might be so?
[04:10] <Quarupted> mistform: Winex
[04:10] <Bob535> www.transgaming.com
[04:10] <scrappy_> mistform: cedega is subscription based unless you decide to cheat and download the torrent or something
[04:10] <Bob535> or winex if you want a free program
[04:10] <alpha255> Pulshion: for most tasks use sudo somecommand
[04:10] <ttyfscker> Pulshion:: that command i gave you will let you set the passwd for root
[04:10] <AAA> Quarupted  -v adds verbosity to the output
[04:10] <scrappy_> mistform: but its cheap and they have good support so its worth it
[04:10] <Waterbou> ok, why will Synaptic Package Manager not let me add my new packages?
[04:11] <Bob535> brb restarting

[04:12] <Pulshion> alpha255 -- I got it now
[04:12] <Quarupted> AAA: with the -v it just says the same thing but numerous times
[04:12] <Pulshion> ttyfscker -- Thanx, i got it now
[04:12] <ttyfscker> yw
[04:12] <mistform> the only reason I bought WoW is because it was practically given to me by Alltel Wireless
[04:12] <imago_> AAA, it gave me "mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
[04:12] <imago_>        missing codepage or other error
[04:12] <imago_>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[04:12] <imago_>        dmesg | tail  or so
[04:12] <imago_> "
[04:12] <alpha255> ttyfscker: yes, it's kinda like the way mac os x does things ... kinda
[04:12] <AAA> Quarupted  on the other box type netstat -ant and see if 22 is listed
[04:12] <mistform> an computer stuffs
[04:13] <alpha255> btw, compiz it great stuff! :)
[04:13] <alpha255> nice eye candy
[04:13] <AAA> imago_  sudo modporbe loop and try again
[04:13] <alpha255> :)
[04:13] <AAA> imago_  modprob
[04:13] <nathanial> scrappy_ looksl ike there is only on .sh file.
[04:13] <AAA> imago_  what filesystem is this? where did you get it?
[04:13] <nathanial> I can just double click it?
[04:14] <scrappy_> nathanial: yes or from terminal type "sh filename.sh"
[04:14] <nathanial> ok
[04:14] <nathanial> scrappy_ thanks so much.
[04:14] <scrappy_> nathanial: np
[04:14] <nathanial> scrappy_ just so you know, if I have problems, I'm coming to YOU!! haha
[04:14] <imago_> AAA, can you give me the exact line to enter.  i think that it is a fat. and i got it from sourceforge.net
[04:15] <AAA> imago_  do this, file file.dsk
[04:15] <AAA> imago_  and tell me what that says
[04:15] <alpha255> bum is nice :)
[04:15] <alpha255> it's a gui though
[04:15] <alpha255> is there a bum-tui?
[04:16] <alpha255> that runs from the cli
[04:16] <AAA> tool user interface
[04:16] <alpha255> ?
[04:16] <Waterbou> AAA, it gives me an error telling me it does not exist
[04:16] <alpha255> text user interface
[04:16] <alpha255> tui
[04:16] <alpha255> or ncurses  based?
[04:16] <AAA> Waterbou  what doesn't exist?
[04:16] <Quarupted> AAA:  no it wasnt just high portsd
[04:17] <imago_> AAA, x86 boot sector
[04:17] <Waterbou> the package I am trying to install, ummm...bcmwl5.sys
[04:17] <Quarupted> AAA:  What command should I use exactly to connect with ssh?
[04:17] <AAA> Quarupted  then /etc/init.d/ssh start on that box and check again, also look at the output of tail /var/log/syslog
[04:17] <imago_> AAA, it's for a program  called gag
[04:17] <AAA> Quarupted  ssh username@host
[04:18] <darthbator> hey guys I'm having an issue getting my comp to burn DVD-R data discs
[04:18] <Quarupted> AAA: oh not just ssh ip?????
[04:18] <AAA> imago_  so that program probably handles the mounting of it? did you try the command after you modprob loop ?
[04:18] <AAA> Quarupted  that works too
[04:18] <AAA> Quarupted  but sshd needs to be running on the remote box
[04:19] <imago_> aaa, i don't understand modprob loop
[04:19] <Pjott> Hey! Got problems with my xorg :S I remember someone wrote to me something like: sudo /reconfigure -xorg -xserv <-- Please correct! ;)
[04:19] <SurfnKid> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:19] <Quarupted> AAA: I thought someone just said it runs at startup by default, and a ps aux |grep sshd shows it running
[04:19] <Pjott> SurfnKid: <3
[04:20] <SurfnKid> dpkg-reconfigure is the command   xserver-xorg is the package
[04:20] <CheetahMk2> Is Unbuntu a good choice for a first Linux distro? I was mainly interested in converting an old laptop to use XGL/AIGLX.
[04:20] <nalioth> CheetahMk2: yes, it is.
[04:20] <SurfnKid> i say yes
[04:20] <floppyears> hi
[04:20] <CheetahMk2> Most of my experiments with Kororaa have been hurt by the fact I use a Mobility 7500 Radeon
[04:21] <floppyears> where can I get some good looking ubuntu branded wallpapers ?
[04:21] <Quarupted> AAA ssh cant be found in /etc/init.d/  ????
[04:21] <CheetahMk2> So I wanted to get some pointers before I tried it out.
[04:21] <Quarupted> Your telling me that Ubuntu doesnt even install sshd?
[04:22] <Quarupted> wow
[04:22] <donpachi> floppyears try gnome-look.org
[04:22] <imago_> aaa, for that modprob loop what exactly would i enter into my terminal
[04:22] <floppyears> I have
[04:22] <floppyears> so there's not an ubuntu specific website ?
[04:22] <AAA> imago_  sudo modprobe loop <--will load the loop module
[04:22] <alpha255> apt-get install ssh and/or sshd?
[04:22] <alpha255> throw in sudo before that command
[04:23] <Quarupted> AAA: Ubuntu didnt even install SSHD
[04:23] <AAA> Quarupted  netstat -ant shows port 22 listening?
[04:23] <donpachi> floppyears, not that i know of.
[04:23] <AAA> Quarupted  the sudo apt-get install ssh on that box
[04:23] <Quarupted> I have to apt-get install openssh-server right?
[04:23] <Quarupted> I have an ssh client
[04:23] <CheetahMk2> One thing: what is the minimum install size for Unbutu? the drive is a 2gb kicker I had lying around. Kororaa ran out of space during a live install - is there a minimum?
[04:23] <AAA> ii  ssh            3.8.1p1-8.sarg Secure rlogin/rsh/rcp replacement (OpenSSH)
[04:23] <Waterbou> Help again, the terminal will not let me enter my password
[04:24] <floppyears> ok, thanks
[04:24] <Quarupted> Why didnt Ubuntu install it?
[04:24] <AAA> I am not an ubuntu developer
[04:24] <AAA> and this lappy doesn't even have ubuntu installed on it, just boring old debian sarge
[04:24] <jpatota> CheetahMk2: ubuntu server is really small
[04:25] <fabio> Hi there
[04:25] <singamayya> i ripped a CD with sound juicer... how do i edit the tag information in the OGG files?
[04:25] <jpatota> CheetahMk2: that might make 2gb
[04:25] <jpatota> CheetahMk2: id be interested to fine out
[04:25] <imago_> aaa, didn't work. but it comes with a program called rawrite2.exe and that will make the bootable floppy disk that i need
[04:25] <fabio> I'm having some issues, while ubuntu is loading (before gdm) I just see flickering in my screen, not a singe line of text (LCD LG L1751S display)
[04:25] <CheetahMk2> Ok, I'll begin and see if anything breaks. I am very good with XP, but this is a first....
[04:25] <singamayya> how to edit OGG tag info?
[04:26] <jpatota> Quarupted: yeah openssh-server would allow you to shell INTO your box from another one
[04:26] <jpatota> the client actually performs the sshing
[04:27] <darthbator> hey guys I've been working on this DVD issue for a while now I can't seem to burn DVD data discs gnomebaker spits the following error at me /dev/hdc: "Current Write Speed" is 2.0x1385KBps.
[04:27] <darthbator> :-( unable to WRITE@LBA=8e0h: Input/output error

[04:27] <darthbator> :-[ SYNCHRONOUS FLUSH CACHE failed with SK=2h/ASC=04h/ACQ=01h] : Resource temporarily unavailable
[04:27] <dle> singamayya: exfalso is good for that. It's in the universe rep.
[04:27] <singamayya> dle: thx
[04:27] <dle> I just ran apt-get update and upgrade, and I have 67 packages waiting to be updated. However I've only seen notices for the kernel and gnupg. Does anyone know why this might be so?  Running Dapper.
[04:28] <thejoe> anyone have problems w/ firefox freezing up, etc. after viewing flash and/or any multimedia content???
[04:28] <alpha255> anyone run across this error? configure: error: Unable to find libncurses or libcurses
[04:28] <Section12> alpha255: Did you apt-get ncurses?
[04:29] <AAA> alpha255  sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev
[04:29] <DanaG> !kernel
[04:29] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux'). You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[04:29] <darthbator> you need to apt-get install ncurses and and libncurses5
[04:29] <Sasquatch> can someone kick  Feremi, i think he's spamming everyone who's entering this room
[04:29] <Chetic> not me
[04:29] <singamayya> dle: do you know any command-line programs that edit OGG tags?
[04:30] <Stormx2> XD IRC servers are so much fun. "Hmm I wonder what kline means"
[04:30] <SurfnKid> you know what all?
[04:30] <SurfnKid> i think
[04:30] <SurfnKid> UBUNTU ROCKS
[04:30] <SurfnKid> cya
[04:30] <CheetahMk2> Any red flags before I begin the install, like don't use 1 partition, or anything like that?
[04:30] <singamayya> geez.. ubuntu package search has been broken for so many months!
[04:30] <Section12> singamayya: apt-cache search
[04:31] <AAA> alpha255  after you install that, _that_ error will clear (there will be more.....)
[04:31] <dle> singamayya: I don't, off-hand.
[04:31] <Chetic> Is there a way to make a launcher run something as if it was run from a certain folder? Like if the executable I want to run requires other local resources from the same folder, it should be able to find them...
[04:31] <singamayya> Section12: thx
[04:31] <alpha255> darthbator: looks like ncurese-term wasn't installed
[04:32] <scrappy_> Chetic: i hate naut launchers.. you could just make a script
[04:32] <alpha255> darthbator: both are installed and still it gives error
[04:33] <Section12> Why the hell am I watching True Lies
[04:33] <Chetic> scrappy_, uh, how?
[04:33] <alpha255> AAA: I installed gcc gcc++ libcurses and ncurse
[04:34] <Section12> alpha255: Did you get build-essintal
[04:34] <Section12> essential
[04:34] <alpha255> yep
[04:35] <scrappy_> Chetic: just make it in gedit the first line might be like #!/bin/bash and then the next would be for something simple like cd /foldername and the next line like ./executable
[04:35] <alpha255> configure: WARNING: Unable to find libncurses   < that's weird
[04:35] <Chetic> ah yeah scrappy_ I'll try that
[04:35] <alpha255> is there  dpg -l command that will list the deb package?
[04:35] <alpha255> installed
[04:36] <yozBuntu> heh cool someone used the serial mouse tutorial i put up with success ;)
[04:36] <PORDO> oh my god...the ubuntu site is lookin awesome now.
[04:36] <yozBuntu> 'finally i got my six year old serial mouse working'
[04:37] <alpha255> libcurses4 and 5 are installed
[04:37] <alpha255> according to synaptic
[04:37] <Pjott> hmmmm
[04:37] <niall> how do i convrt bin and cue files for burning to dvd
[04:38] <DanaG> Where can I get an official Ubuntu package for kernel 2.6.17?
[04:38] <Pjott> still having problems configuring the xserver :/
[04:39] <Quarupted> Can I just start an X server for my other machine in the other room in a seperate display like F1 or F2?
[04:40] <scrappy_> niall: maybe use bchunk
 is it possible to burn them as is
[04:40] <alpha255> Quarupted: i think you can but you need to tell it the tty to start on... haven't done that in a long time...
[04:40] <Quarupted> anyone know how?
[04:41] <scrappy_> niall: well you can download cdemu to mount the bin file and then maybe navagate to the directory its mounted to and use your burning program but im not sure
[04:41] <Pjott> ok
[04:41] <Quarupted> CheetahMk2: are you serious?
[04:42] <CheetahMk2> The Kororaa liveinstall needed to be cleaned
[04:42] <Pjott> now I'm REALLY f***ed up!!!
[04:42] <Pjott> I'll try again
[04:42] <CheetahMk2> so I can install Ubuntu, but I have no idea what the Drive Manager equivalent in KDe is
[04:42] <CheetahMk2> So I just went into xterm and am clearing the drive the old fashioned way
[04:42] <niall> Can anyone else offer another opinion for burning these bin/cue files
[04:42] <alpha255> cli works
[04:43] <Quarupted> So can anyone tell me how to get the machine in the other room's X running on a seperate TTY?
[04:43] <CheetahMk2> Problem now is I don't know how to 'reformat' or 'repartition' - again, new to this Linux thing, old to XP.
[04:43] <alpha255> Quarupted: you could ssh into it and run binaries from it
[04:44] <alpha255> Quarupted: you mjight need to adjust your sshd_config file for x11 forwarding
[04:44] <Quarupted> I Want X though
[04:44] <alpha255> Quarupted: linux terminal services project might be a better route
[04:44] <Quarupted> I dun wanna tunnel I wanna run X locally for the other machine
 can io do apt-get install bchunk
[04:45] <alpha255> Quarupted: oh xdmc or something like iirc ...
[04:45] <alpha255> look at the login screen of the other machine to enable it
[04:46] <alpha255> i don't think the password is protected though
[04:46] <Pjott> At the xserver-xorg config: When I select "Resolution", and I only want 800x640 to be used, should I remove everything else, and only mark 800x600 with a star (*), or select everything exept 800x640 ?
[04:46] <alpha255> it
[04:46] <alpha255> 's sent in clear text
[04:46] <niall> anyone know a simple way how to burn bin/cue files in ubuntu
[04:46] <yozBuntu> woa
[04:46] <yozBuntu> niall ?
[04:46] <dylan_> Has anyone noticed that Ubiquity fails to create a file system after formatting?
[04:46] <dylan_> the Live CD does nto work for me.
[04:46] <alpha255> Pjott: that would force that resolution
[04:46] <dylan_> Is there a way to fix it?
[04:46] <Pjott> alpha255: That's what I want
[04:46] <yozBuntu> not the same niall i'm thinking of i guess ;)
 trying to burn a movie i got which came down as one bin file and one cue file
[04:47] <alpha255> Pjott: i just remembered that that could be done
[04:47] <RoninGurl> I'm getting really low audio volume with mp3s on my Soundblaster Audigy.
[04:47] <Pjott> cuz if not, the screen goes black...
[04:47] <yozBuntu> niall, sorry i haven't done any CD recording under linux/ubuntu yet.
[04:47] <niall> nm
[04:47] <Pjott> so: I should remove everything else, and only mark 800x640 ?
[04:47] <dylan_> Hello?
[04:48] <alpha255> Pjott: first make a back up of that file
[04:48] <yozBuntu> niall, i'd be surprised if there wasn't a cd recording software for linux that understands bin+cue
[04:48] <dylan_> Does anyone else have the same file system error?
[04:48] <alpha255> just in case
[04:48] <yozBuntu> that was a very popular way to do it for a long time
[04:48] <dle> niall: k3b might. Not sure, but it might.
[04:48] <alpha255> brb
[04:48] <niall>  <dle> doesnt recognise the file
[04:49] <dylan_> Ubiquity messed up at creating a file system.  Does anyone else know how to fix this or solve this?
[04:49] <dylan_> It fails
[04:49] <dle> niall: Rats.
[04:49] <scrappy_> the standard is to convert to iso. mplayer can play cue files directly but that sort of thing is the exception
[04:50] <Pjott> DAMNIT!!!
[04:50] <Pjott> sorry :S
[04:50] <Pjott> alpha255: Still the same :/
[04:50] <alpha255> drat
[04:50] <Stormx2> This may seem an odd question to you folks, but if your a Network Admin on an irc server, how do you make someone chanop in a certain channel?
[04:50] <flodine> niall ive been trying to burn these files to
[04:50] <Pjott> I've got: ATI Radeon 9600 Pro Atlantis, and Hitachi CM823F 21" CRT-Monitor. It should handle the 24-bits color-deeph, right?
[04:51] <DanaG> Where can I get an official Ubuntu package for kernel 2.6.17?
[04:51] <alpha255> Pjott: should
[04:51] <Tsukino> a 9600 Pro should handle 32 bit color
[04:51] <Pjott> maby that's the problem... ^:/
[04:51] <Pjott> i know...
[04:51] <alpha255> Pjott: did you install the accellerated drivers?
[04:51] <bruenig> Stormx, you may want to ask one of the ops here
[04:51] <Pjott> alpha255: Please define
[04:51] <threeonefour> aaa, what does this command do   dd if=/home/555/Desktop/gag46/disk.dsk of=/dev/fd0 bs=512 count=2880
[04:51] <Pjott> <-- noob ;)
[04:51] <flodine> niall you get it
[04:52] <micahcowan> !ati
[04:52] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto

[04:52] <alejandro> Hello Everyone. I am from venezuela, i am new to ubuntu
[04:52] <alpha255> Pjott: it can be a steep learning curve at first take it easy on yourself :)
downloaded bchunk trying to figure it out still
[04:52] <threeonefour> thank you scrappy
[04:52] <Pjott> alpha255: But it worked before :/
[04:52] <alpha255> Pjott: hummm
[04:53] <Pjott> I've had Ubuntu before, I had the same problem(s), I did the same way, but noooo...
[04:53] <threeonefour> scrappy_ what about this   cat /home/555/Desktop/gag46/disk.dsk > /dev/fd0
[04:53] <ardchoille> Stormx2: I use  /msg chanserv op #channel nick  to op and  /msg chanserv op #channel -nick  to deop
[04:53] <Chetic> How do you make Wine not use Gnome's window decoration?
[04:53] <scrappy_> threeonefour: well in theory it would do the same thing im just not sure it it would work that easily
[04:53] <flodine> niall those bin and cue files are not just for movies thee also programes like adobe
[04:53] <scrappy_> threeonefour: but it should
[04:53] <Stormx2> Ah ok. See I don't have a chanserv at the moment ^.^

 installed bchunk, how does it launch or what do i do with it
[04:57] <Pjott> Sorry for ALOT of asking :S heh...
[04:57] <renesis> drama, nice
[04:57] <micahcowan> gotcha.
[04:57] <nalioth> niall: in a terminal, type "bchunk --help"
[04:57] <renesis> daemon init apps, anyone?
[04:57] <bruenig> niall, probably is a command line program, try man bchunk or bchunk --help
[04:57] <micahcowan> believer_ was somewhat asking for it, though (but I totally agree it was inappropriate)
[04:57] <renesis> the prefered way is to hax0r init scripts?
[04:57] <bruenig> believer_ was a bot clearly
[04:58] <nalioth> micahcowan: can we discuss this in #ubuntu-offtopic ?
[04:58] <Aberrant22> renesis:  I like my daemons.  They make me happy.
[04:58] <Quarupted> hello....?
[04:58] <renesis> nice
[04:58] <renesis> i dont
[04:58] <Quarupted> XDMC???
[04:58] <renesis> i need my mem for real stuff =]
[04:58] <scrappy_> renesis: i normally just 'update-rc.d -f scriptname remove' about half the stuff in there..
[04:58] <micahcowan> I don't need to discuss it any more: I'm fine with him having been banned (just slightly surprised, was all).
[04:58] <renesis> scrappy_: ty
 is there no graphical way of converting them
[04:58] <renesis> scrappy_: didnt know the syntax on a deb based system
[04:58] <CheetahMk2> Hohoho..... Ubuntu has Memtest built in... clever.
[04:59] <Aberrant22> renesis: Yeah...sorry, just a desktop user.
[04:59] <RoninGurl> crimsun, ok, does that need sudo?
[04:59] <scrappy_> renesis: thats the most common way of removing the sym links
[04:59] <renesis> heh
[04:59] <bruenig> niall, I don't know much about bin and cue files except that they have some relation to vcds and that they play in vlc, other than that nothing
[04:59] <renesis> rc-update del [package]  [runlevel]
[04:59] <CheetahMk2> Aren't they binary images of a CD? At least on Win they are.
[04:59] <renesis> GENTOOO WOOOOOOOO!
[04:59] <renesis> kbye
[04:59] <crimsun> RoninGurl: no.
 do u know if they will work on xbox 360
[05:00] <bruenig> renesis, I remember some command line program that allows you to do what you want to do, it was on some howto in the forums
[05:00] <ardchoille> sysv-rc-conf ?
[05:00] <ardchoille> That's what I use

[05:02] <CheetahMk2> er... this can't be good.. "error reading from boot CD" when running the ISO I just downloaded...
[05:02] <Aberrant22> I think renesis has quit aready
[05:02] <Blinker> !sources
[05:02] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[05:02] <DanaG> Okay, how about, instead of where, I'll ask:  WHEN can I get an official Ubuntu package for kernel 2.6.17?  I need this kernel to get a fixed frequency/voltage table for my Yonah.
[05:03] <Blinker> !ati
[05:03] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:04] <alpha255> configure: error: Unable to find libncurses or libcurses
[05:04] <alpha255> i have build-essentials installed
[05:04] <alpha255> i have ncurses installed
[05:04] <nalioth>  alpha255 you'll also need libncurses*-dev
[05:04] <alpha255> i have libncurses
[05:04] <alpha255> dev aaah
[05:05] <bruenig> you probably should get build-essential, I am not even sure build-essentials is a package
[05:05] <alpha255> got build-essential thnx
[05:05] <bruenig> lol
[05:06] <mitrovarr> something I'm trying to compile requested gl.h (opengl headers).  Any idea what package that's in?
[05:06] <alpha255> nalioth: you rock! Thanks ! :)
[05:06] <CheetahMk2> Hm... I just redownloaded/reburnt the Ubuntu Dekstop install ISO, and I get the same problem... is this a bug?
[05:06] <CheetahMk2> "Error reading form boot CD"
[05:06] <Pjott> alpha255: There. Re-booting after following the "!ati" tutorial after dot-and-slash
[05:06] <nalioth> !tell mitrovarr about apt-file
[05:06] <ardchoille> CheetahMk2: How many files are on the disk you burned?
[05:07] <nalioth> CheetahMk2: did you verify the integrity and burn at 4x or less?
[05:07] <mitrovarr> !aptfile > mitrovarr
[05:07] <Pjott> CheetahMk2: Download a new copy of Ubuntu, and burn at slow speed
[05:07] <ubotu> I know nothing about aptfile  - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:07] <mitrovarr> !apt-file > mitrovarr
[05:07] <Pjott> HORRAY FOR alpha255!!! :D
[05:07] <micahcowan> mitrovarr, try <bang>info aptfile?
[05:07] <nalioth> mitrovarr: um, check your private messages
[05:07] <micahcowan> :)
[05:07] <mitrovarr> thanks
[05:07] <DanaG> !2.6.16
[05:07] <mitrovarr> they're sneaky on xchat, you don't notice them
[05:07] <ubotu> I know nothing about 2.6.16 - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:07] <_Jae> Anyone: Any ideas how I can get my X-Windows working again without having to do a full reinstall? I just tried to do the "Official" Dapper Drake install method for Nvidia drivers (non-legacy). Aaaaaand when I try to boot up, X-Windows (Xorg I think more specficially) is hosed.
[05:07] <DanaG> !2.6.17
[05:07] <ubotu> I know nothing about 2.6.17 - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:07] <jackinthebox> ok, my friend has some files on a Mac OS extended(journaled) external hard drive
[05:08] <jackinthebox> is there any way to get it?
[05:08] <bruenig> lol, he tried a kernel version number
[05:08] <bruenig> wow
[05:08] <Pjott> see you all when I'm @ Linux!
[05:08] <_Jae> Jack: yup. Shared files.
[05:08] <nalioth> kameron: sure, just mount it as filesystem type 'hfsplus'
[05:08] <_Jae> >.>
[05:08] <CheetahMk2>  ardchoille   487 files, 97 folders (in windows)
[05:08] <nalioth> jackinthebox:  sure, just mount it as filesystem type 'hfsplus'
[05:08] <DanaG> Okay, does Ubuntu have any of their own patches, or would it be safe to go with the kernel.org version?
[05:08] <jackinthebox> nalioth: how to?
[05:08] <ardchoille> CheetahMk2: ok, I just wanted to make sure you burned it as an image instead of burning the ISO to cd as a file
[05:09] <CheetahMk2> 696 MB (730,410,985 bytes)
[05:09] <digitalpenguin> poddo: hey pod you here
[05:09] <CheetahMk2> Oh, I thought you wanted a bytecount
[05:09] <CheetahMk2> Can you give me a CRC32 of the ISO image?
[05:09] <nalioth> jackinthebox: there is a script around here somewhere to mount them automatically
[05:09] <poddo> digitalpenguin, hey
[05:09] <CheetahMk2> There is no MD5 hash listed
[05:09] <mitrovarr> thanks guys
[05:09] <digitalpenguin> poddo:send me a query
[05:09] <nalioth> CheetahMk2: you get it from the download page
[05:09] <_Jae> Guess i'm reinstalling. Damn. I hope I can get the network back up.
[05:09] <CheetahMk2> nevermind, found the MD5s
[05:09] <CheetahMk2> yeah, I just saw it at the bottom
[05:10] <poddo> a query?
[05:10] <digitalpenguin>  /query digitalpenguin
[05:10] <marshall__> hey guys
[05:11] <marshall__> is there anybody here who knows how to deal with fstab?
[05:11] <nalioth> jackinthebox:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[05:11] <marshall__> who could maybe help me out
[05:11] <bruenig> !fstab
[05:11] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file lists all drives and partitions that are mounted on the system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !partitions
[05:11] <nalioth> marshall__: someone might, if you asked a question
[05:11] <poddo> digitalpenguin, i did
[05:12] <digitalpenguin> poddo: ok one sec
[05:12] <CheetahMk2> Well, the MD5 sums are the same... maybe the CD drive is shot : /
[05:12] <_Jae> *sigh*
[05:12] <whatsnfs> hi everyone, I think I'm stuck with Ubuntu network shares and I don't even know how to google it: is samba the best way to share files even between 2 ubuntu machines?
[05:12] <Blinker> whats up alienseer23
[05:12] <_Jae> Aaaaand here I go reinstalling.    Join the crowd.
[05:13] <nalioth> whatsnfs: if you are planning on sharing with windows machines, use samba
[05:13] <scrappy_> alienseer23: see above
[05:13] <poddo> digitalpenguin, i dont see it
[05:13] <_Jae> Ooo...
[05:13] <CheetahMk2> Well, I'll reburn it and see. I'm pretty sure it is the CD drive crapping out.
[05:13] <whatsnfs> nalioth: but I don't even see NFS in the sharing options
[05:13] <_Jae> Hold that thought, scrappy_...
[05:13] <alienseer23> the sudo dpkg thingie?
[05:13] <scrappy_> alienseer23: yes
[05:13] <nalioth> !tell whatsnfs about nfs
[05:13] <digitalpenguin> poddo: o well
[05:13] <alienseer23> that's what I call god timing! thanks!
[05:14] <digitalpenguin> poddo: ill try it later
[05:14] <whatsnfs> thank you...
[05:14] <marshall__> i have 2 cd drives, one a dual layer dvd writer and the other a dvd rom,  im trying to copy a movie from the dvd rom to a blank dvd in the dvd writer but the drive containing the movie (DVD ROM) doesnt appear in 'Computer'
[05:14] <poddo> digitalpenguin, weird
[05:14] <_Jae> scrappy_: may solve MY issue, too
[05:14] <bruenig> !tell bruenig about partitions
[05:14] <mainer> CheetahMk2: burn it as 9660r,worked for me,when tao-mode ,dao did not
[05:14] <ardchoille> poddo , digitalpenguin : one of you can do /join #digitalpenguin  or  /join #poddo  and have the other meet you there :)
[05:14] <CheetahMk2> Hm... let me test that.
[05:15] <CheetahMk2> My program just urns ISO's flat out though... no options
[05:15] <nalioth> CheetahMk2: choose another program
[05:15] <_Jae> Anyone know how to twist Blizzard's nipples and force them to hyperthread WoW? ;)
[05:16] <marshall__> nalioth: can you help me?
[05:16] <CheetahMk2> 1.) Farm gold 2.) Be a NE rogue
[05:16] <CheetahMk2> Oh wait, you want to twist THEIR nipples
[05:16] <nalioth> marshall__: did you read the URLs that showed up in this channel?
[05:16] <_Jae> Heheh. Yeah.
[05:16] <mitrovarr> that was odd
[05:16] <_Jae> I can't even get the darn thing to install.
[05:16] <ballpointcarrot> _Jae: get a long pair of pliers, and...
[05:16] <_Jae> Heehee.
[05:16] <nalioth> CheetahMk2: _Jae please take that to #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:16] <mitrovarr> gl.h was supposed to be part of mesa-common-dev, which I had installed, but it was missing
[05:16] <_Jae> I'm kiddin'.
[05:16] <CheetahMk2> Sorry.
[05:16] <_Jae> Sorry.
[05:16] <mitrovarr> reinstallation fixed it, but still, that's some sort of bug there
[05:17] <anonymeeee> cups admin isn't letting me add a printer, not accepting my username and password
[05:17] <scrappy_> anonymeeee: youre trying to access localhost:631 ?
[05:17] <marshall__> nalioth: yeah
[05:18] <nalioth> marshall__: if you ask us a specific question, we might can answer
[05:18] <mister_roboto_> i just installed "apt-file" since hearing about it on here but it doesn't seem to work. shouldn't "apt-file list zip" show the zip package contents, for example? nothing happens at all when i run the command
[05:18] <nalioth> mister_roboto_: first, run "sudp apt-file update"
[05:18] <marshall__> nalioth: i already did
[05:18] <CheetahMk2>  nalioth   I'm going to try Daemon tools and CCD... if this doesn't work, it's the hardware.
[05:18] <marshall__> nalioth: i have 2 cd drives, one a dual layer dvd writer and the other a dvd rom,  im trying to copy a movie from the dvd rom to a blank dvd in the dvd writer but the drive containing the movie (DVD ROM) doesnt appear in 'Computer'
[05:18] <mister_roboto_> nalioth: ahhh, thanks
[05:19] <markedwards> hi, I just installed the netatalk package from source in order to enable SSL, which worked fine, but now the GUI complains about needing to upgrade
[05:19] <nalioth> marshall__: type in a terminal, "sudo fdkisk -l" and see if you can see both dvd drives in the output
[05:19] <mitrovarr> anyways, I thought it was unusual enough to mention it.  Thanks again for the help
[05:19] <marshall__> nalioth: ok
[05:19] <miyako> hi, I was wondering if someone could offer some help.  I'm trying to install Kubuntu, and I'm running the installer from the live CD.
[05:19] <markedwards> is there some way to say, "hey, I installed this from source to customize it, don't bug me unless there is a new version to install from source"
[05:19] <miyako> I'm trying to set up the partition table, but things are acting kinda funny.
[05:19] <anonymeeee> scrappy; yes
[05:20] <marshall__> nalioth: no, they don't show up
[05:20] <nalioth> miyako: can you give us some more info?
[05:20] <nalioth> marshall__: neither one?
[05:20] <_Jae> Man that dpkg-reconfigure thingy takes some doin'... I just hope using nvidia and then defaults from there works!
[05:20] <scrappy_> anonymeeee: are you a member of lpadmin group? im not sure if thats it but it seems likely
[05:20] <marshall__> nalioth: no, neither of them show
[05:21] <mistform> what should I download, the Source or Binary?  which is easier to install?
[05:21] <_Jae> We'll find out in just a second. Even with my POS 1.35GhZ/256MB RAM computer Ubuntu boots surprisingly fast.
[05:21] <anonymeeee> how do I check?
[05:21] <_Jae> Binary.
[05:21] <nalioth> marshall__: in your terminal, type "mount"
[05:21] <eleazar123> hey guys, is there a guide for installing unstable programs in ubuntu?
[05:21] <micahcowan> markedwards, unfortunately, the packaging system doesn't know what's been installed from source, which is why compiling from source is usually discouraged.
[05:21] <_Jae> mistform: binary
[05:21] <scrappy_> anonymeeee: from a terminal type "groups" it will respond with all the groups that user is a member of
[05:21] <nalioth> eleazar123: you might want to ask in #ubuntu-offtopic or #ubuntu-classroom
[05:21] <marshall__> nalioth: ok, done
[05:21] <mistform> yeah, I found the Binary instructions
[05:21] <nalioth> marshall__: did you see them there?
[05:21] <micahcowan> markedwards, when it must be done, it's usually advisable to actually create a source package from it (which is a bit of work, if you're not used to it). In cases like yours, you'd also want to tweak the version a bit so it wouldn't get automatically overwritten.
[05:22] <mistform> it requires me to make a custom repository
[05:22] <marshall__> nalioth: no
[05:22] <jonykal> hi
[05:22] <_Jae> And it failed. dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org failed. Trying again.
[05:22] <Pjott> funny... :/
[05:22] <markedwards> micahcowan: I did create a source package, and installed from the .deb
[05:22] <anonymeeee> scrappy: I am indeed a member of the lpadmin group
[05:22] <Pjott> I can't write (A) <-- That's "at"
[05:22] <jonykal> please help me with this bcm43xx thing!!!
[05:22] <nalioth> marshall__: type "sudo lshw|less" and scan the output for your drives
[05:23] <mistform> jonykal, talk to me
[05:23] <_jacky_> hi, all, i have custom a edgy cd, but when i use it for install, some packages can't be installed, what's wrong?
[05:23] <nalioth> !tell jonykal about broadcom
[05:23] <marshall__> nalioth: ok
[05:23] <scrappy_> anonymeeee: and from your browser you can get to like <IP_ADDRESS>:631 right?
[05:23] <markedwards> michacowan: what should I add to the version so that it shuts up until there's really a new version?
[05:23] <scrappy_> anonymeeee: what error are you getting?
[05:23] <anonymeeee> scrappy: yes I can
[05:23] <mistform> jonykal, use this link, it helped me. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185174
[05:23] <mistform> everyone should see that link
[05:23] <fabio> I'm having some issues, while ubuntu is loading (before gdm) I just see flickering in my screen, not a singe line of text (LCD LG L1751S display)
[05:24] <eleazar123> nalioth, oh, i didn't realize it was offtopic :\ sry
[05:24] <fabio> any ideas?
[05:24] <jonykal> mistform: why do i keep getting sudo iwlist eth1 scan
[05:24] <jonykal> eth1      No scan results
[05:24] <alienseer23> ok, do I have to reboot to enable x now??
[05:24] <micahcowan> markedwards, You want to tweak the version; perhaps use a ~ instead of the - before XubuntuX (in the changelog, I believe...).
[05:24] <Pjott> Why can't i write "alfa-a"... If you understand :) ... "at" blabla(at)hotmail.com
[05:25] <_Jae> scrappy_: second try with all defaults seems to have fixed it. Thanks a bunch!
[05:25] <alienseer23> how do I turn x on, please? from the console?
[05:25] <|thunder> starx
[05:25] <CheetahMk2> startx?
[05:25] <nalioth> alienseer23: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[05:25] <CheetahMk2> X :1 ?
[05:25] <scrappy_> alienseer23: a number of ways but default is sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[05:25] <alienseer23> startx worked
[05:26] <anonymeeee> scrappy:not getting an error, just brings the username password box back up one time then when I attempt a different password combo, it gives me a blank screen
[05:26] <alienseer23> thank you :)
[05:26] <_Jae> alienseer23: I usually just hit ctrl-alt-del
[05:26] <_Jae> heehee.
[05:26] <jonykal> mistform:  is this command to get a list of availiable networks?
[05:26] <markedwards> micahcowan: okay, so if I put ~ instead of - in netatalk_2.0.3-3ubuntu1_i386.changes, it will get overridden when the version goes beyond 2.0.3?
[05:26] <EpP> I have an ubuntu cd... but i want to use kubuntu. Is there a way to install it and then get rid of ubuntu(gnome)? I tried to just get a kubuntu cd but in on a mac and it wont burn right on a pc.
[05:26] <CheetahMk2> Why would X server crash only in fullscreen mode, but work if I called it from *within* another X session in windowed mode?
[05:27] <scrappy_> anonymeeee: they disabled access to cups in breezy i thought they must have fixed in dapper but maybe i enabled and forgot about it one sec
[05:27] <Chetic> How do you make the PC-speaker stop BEEPING ALL THE FREAKIN TIME?!
[05:27] <CheetahMk2> e.g. startx :1 -> X :4 (creates a small window and works) versus X :0 ?
[05:27] <nalioth> EpP: you can burn any iso for any platform on a PC, just verify your iso image and burn at 4x or less
[05:28] <bruenig> Chectic, if they are system beeps, you can go to System>Preferences>Sound and turn them off. I turned all of that off
[05:28] <Pjott> Chetic: Open your cabinet, and drag out the wire that goes from your FREAKIN' speaker to your mother-board
[05:28] <alpha255> nite all
[05:28] <Pjott> Believe me... I HATE the speaker myself!!!
[05:28] <mistform> jonykal, do you have your wireless network working?
[05:28] <Pjott> Good Night, alpha255! :D
[05:28] <micahcowan> markedwards, I think you actually want to use that version string in debian/changes... and yes, I believe version compares are ASCIIbetical.
[05:28] <jonykal> mistform: yup
[05:28] <ballpointcarrot> CheetahMk2: probably an X config issue: type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and follow that.
[05:28] <marshall__> nalioth: yeah they are both in there
[05:28] <mistform> so what problem are you having?
[05:28] <Blinker> does anyone know if ATI X-series drivers will work just as well for the M-series?
[05:29] <EpP> nalioth, i did...
[05:29] <CheetahMk2> I think fglrx drivers only down as old as the 9500 series
[05:29] <jonykal> mistform: i cant detect anything with sudo iwlist ethX scan
[05:29] <phargle> is there some command i can run so that when i sudo i get tab-completion for filenames i dont normally have access to?
[05:29] <RoninGurl> How do you minimize Rhythmbox to the notification area of gnome panel again?
[05:29] <CheetahMk2> My Mobility 7500 only works with the DRI ones
[05:29] <nalioth> marshall__: then you need to ask how to mount them
[05:29] <_Jae> Does anyone know a way I can log into an SMB-enabled iMac running OS X from Ubuntu with a different username/password?
[05:29] <jonykal> mistform: i get No scan results
[05:29] <Commander-Crowe> Is it possible to remove some of the "SWAP" space and put it into my filesystems Partition?
[05:29] <bruenig> RoninGurl, Click on the notification area icon and it will minimize to it instead of the task bar
[05:29] <nalioth> Commander-Crowe: use gparted from an Ubuntu liveCd
[05:30] <Chetic> Pjott, no thanks for no tip
[05:30] <RoninGurl> bruenig, thank you.
[05:30] <Commander-Crowe> will it do anything unatural to my partition?
[05:30] <marshall__> nalioth: thanks
[05:30] <Pjott> Chetic: ?
[05:30] <jaggz-> how do I burn a music cd instead of a data cd?
[05:30] <phargle> ill do naught things to your partition
[05:30] <marshall__> does anybody know how i can mount my dvd drives?
[05:30] <jaggz-> like I pop up the file-browser and it has the blank cd there and I can drag things to it.. I want to drag an MP3 we just made
[05:31] <mistform> jonykal, use a manager, like Network Manager or Wifi-Radar
[05:31] <nalioth> Commander-Crowe: not if you think logically
[05:31] <Commander-Crowe> ok
[05:31] <Pjott> Why can't I write: "@" ? I'm from Norway, By The Way
[05:31] <mistform> just use sudo apt-get install Network-manager or wifi-radar
[05:31] <Commander-Crowe> its a logical partition not a primary
[05:32] <scrappy_> anonymeeee: you cant access System > Administration > Printing either or just cups server directly
[05:32] <jonykal> mistform: this one? http://www.gnome.org/projects/NetworkManager/
[05:32] <bruenig> jaggz-, I believe there are a host of apps that do that.  :S
[05:34] <Pjott> Someone :S
[05:34] <nalioth> marshall__: you can berate me in #ubuntu-offtopic if you wish
[05:34] <CheetahMk2>  ballpointcarrot   It says "Failed to start the X server (your graphical interface)." When I look at the log, it says "fatal server error: no screens found"
[05:34] <bruenig> unsecure, in linux?
[05:34] <CheetahMk2> Even though I see the screen right there in xorg.conf
[05:34] <marshall__> nalioth: not for people to come and act like jerks to others
[05:34] <phargle> is it possible to have tab completion for files i dont normally have access to?  for when sudo'ing
[05:34] <_Jae> CheetahMk2: It happened to me too. Try scrappy's suggestion: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:35] <_Jae> Just go with full defaults.
[05:35] <RoninGurl> phargle, i think you would have to SU first.
[05:35] <_Jae> :)
[05:35] <micahcowan> markedwards, yes... I believe that's what I'd had to do before (checking it on a package, atm).
[05:35] <CheetahMk2> weird part, it says "command not found"
[05:35] <ballpointcarrot> CheetahMk2: put your /var/log/Xorg.0.log and /etc/X11/xorg.conf in pastebin - i'll take a look at it.
[05:35] <babyhusband> Has anyone in here gotten broadcom wirless ethernets to work with ubuntu 6?
[05:35] <nalioth> !sudo
[05:35] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:35] <Pjott> Why can't I write "@" ? :S I'm from Norway, my keyboard is set to "Norwegian" etc.
[05:35] <h8red> I've been having a problem that hasn't been solved all day, I can't seem to access a drive, even though it is vfat, it will not open in file browser and gives me this error: error: device /dev/hdb1 is not removable
[05:35] <h8red> error: could not execute pmount, any help?
[05:35] <CheetahMk2> heh, I'll have to type it in manually, I'm at my desktop.
[05:35] <CheetahMk2> nano ... *sigh*
[05:35] <Pjott> Nano is the KING :D
[05:36] <bruenig> i like nano
[05:36] <Aberrant22> Pastebin is acting slooowwwww
[05:36] <marshall__> can anybody help me fix my fstab file? a lot of things aren't right with it and it needs some streightening out.
[05:36] <_Jae> Oh, CheetahMk2: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:36] <bruenig> !tell marshall__ about fstab
[05:36] <_Jae> Sorry. Forgot the sudo bit.
[05:36] <markedwards> micahcowan: my god that's annoying.  trying it now.  thanks!
[05:36] <micahcowan> markedwards, yes, that should work (just tried it on the "hello" package).
[05:36] <marshall__> bruenig: i read that already, thanks though
[05:37] <bruenig> !google
[05:37] <ubotu> google is a very popular search engine, http://www.google.com
[05:37] <CheetahMk2> yeah, "dpkg-reconfigure: command not found". I'm logged in as root.
[05:37] <CheetahMk2> Gr.... maye I should use an older version

[05:37] <nalioth> CheetahMk2: you need more than dpkg-reconfigure.  you need a module name behind it
[05:38] <CheetahMk2>  nalioth   That happsn when I type "dkpg-reconfigure xergver-xorg"
[05:38] <CheetahMk2> er.... you know
[05:38] <nalioth> !tell CheetahMk2 about xcfg
[05:38] <bruenig> nalioth, but it still would recognize the command wouldn't it, it would say that it wasn't carried out properly with the right arguments but it would recognize it
[05:38] <nalioth> bruenig: it should.
[05:38] <CheetahMk2> Ok, GPM restarted just fine.
[05:38] <rgie> hi
[05:39] <aujordanh> fistandantilus, rythymbox doesn't move files from ipod to hdd does it?!ubotu
[05:39] <aujordanh> !ubotu
[05:39] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[05:39] <bruenig> !tell nalioth about xmms-wmdiscotux
[05:39] <ubotu> I know nothing about xmms-wmdiscotux - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:39] <rgie> is there a packages on ubuntu which i can capture the screen
[05:39] <CheetahMk2> Aha! "XDM restart" crashes. "There already appears to be an X server
[05:39] <bruenig> !xmms-wmdiscotux
[05:39] <ubotu> I know nothing about xmms-wmdiscotux - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu

[05:39] <bruenig> that solves everyone's problems
[05:40] <len> Hi, what's the command to reconfigure xorg.conf?
[05:40] <len> !xorg
[05:40] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type this in a console: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  -  To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[05:40] <bruenig> len, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:40] <len> bruenig: thx
[05:40] <CheetahMk2> Ok.. running /etc/init.d/xdm restart the screen flashes checkerboard with a watch in it three times then goes to the "Failed to start X server" dialog.
[05:40] <Slasher> bah!, I still can't get ubuntu installed, on the live dvd boot it goes to configuring drivers and then panics with "not syncing: fatal exception in interrupt
[05:40] <nalioth> !tell len about xcfg
[05:41] <bruenig> len don't forget to take a look at xmms-wmdiscotux, it works wonders on xorg.conf
[05:41] <ardchoille> we need to have the command "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" entered into the bot as a factoid.. !xconf or something.
[05:41] <CheetahMk2> I'm going to get a cup of coffee and try it again. Thanks for the help so far.
[05:41] <nalioth> !xcfg
[05:41] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type this in a console: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  -  To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[05:41] <nalioth> oh wtf
[05:41] <aujordanh> is compix/xgl worth the work?? does it streamline work or make it more complicated?
[05:41] <wweasel> Hey. Just out of curiosity, when should I expect Firefox <IP_ADDRESS> to hit repos?
[05:41] <|thunder> aujordanh, streamlines
[05:42] <len> bruenig: is this another script to configure xorg?
[05:42] <Pjott> This is getting uncomfortable, and I've written this question 3-4 times now. Sorry for the repeat, but the question is out of the screens resolution :P
[05:42] <Pjott> Why can't I write "@" ? :S I'm from Norway, my keyboard is set to "Norwegian" etc.
[05:42] <nalioth> the !xcfg factoid USED to have just "to reconfigure your xserver, type 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' "  no wonder nobody is getting it
[05:42] <markedwards> micahcowan: that doesn't seem to have worked.  ~ isn't good, I guess its before - or something.
[05:42] <bruenig> !info xmms-wmdiscotux
[05:42] <ubotu> xmms-wmdiscotux: Tux dancing to the music played by xmms. In repository universe, is optional. Version 1.3-3 (dapper), package size 45 kB, installed size 196 kB
[05:42] <ardchoille> nalioth: Can it be added back?
[05:42] <ardchoille> It would save a lot of typing
[05:42] <wweasel> Pjott: If no one is answreing, it's not cause we are ignoring you. It's cause we don't know the answer.
[05:43] <nalioth> ardchoille: i'm sure it can
[05:43] <Slasher> anyone know the answer to my problem? :P
[05:43] <wweasel> Just out of curiosity, when should I expect Firefox <IP_ADDRESS> to hit repos?
[05:43] <bruenig> wweasel, the correct response to that would be this "!tell Pjott about repeat"
[05:43] <FaFoo> how can i tell if i want a partitition to be "primary" or "extended" or even "rounded" or whatever
[05:43] <Pjott> hmmm
[05:43] <markedwards> micahcowan: synaptic says "Installed Version ~ | Latest Version -"
[05:43] <CheetahMk2> SUCCESS
[05:43] <bruenig> FaFoo, what are you trying to do
[05:43] <wweasel> bruenig: or !ask i think. but I just wanted to write it out to him,
[05:43] <__mikem> Pjott what happens when you try to type "@"
[05:43] <CheetahMk2> Holy smokes... it was just the damn default color depth, had to change from 24 to 16
[05:44] <Pukemastasplash> anyone know how to get the nethack IBMGraphics option working in the console?
[05:44] <len> bruenig: Ok!
[05:44] <FaFoo> bruenig, partition my hard drive for ubuntu installation
[05:44] <CheetahMk2> What the heck would cause that?!?
[05:44] <Pukemastasplash> I've tried changing the font to default8x16
[05:44] <Slasher> bah! i knew it you are ignoring me! :P
[05:44] <bruenig> FaFoo, are you trying to dual boot and how many partitions to you intend on having
[05:44] <aniso> hi
[05:45] <FaFoo> bruenig, yeah, i want dual boot with os x, i'm on an imac. i want an os x partition, and a linux / and swap
[05:45] <ardchoille> nalioth: OK, what I should have asked is .. Can you add that back to the bot for us?
[05:45] <aniso> can someone do me a favor and paste /etc/init.d/gdm into pastebin ?
[05:45] <FaFoo> a wee bit confused with all of these options though. :(
[05:45] <mistform> I have a java error in FF
[05:45] <bruenig> FaFoo, then you can make them all primary, You can only have Four primary partitions,
[05:45] <CheetahMk2> Internet?
[05:45] <FaFoo> bruenig: ok
[05:45] <mistform> I thought I had java...   For some reason I can't set Firefox to automatically download files to a mounted FAT32 partition.  I mean, install both packages and just select between ubuntu / kubuntu at login ?
[05:48] <Ronz> haha. i have used gentoo. it just so happened that i had to spend 2 days fixing the updates
[05:48] <henriqueqc> hello! do someone know a way to install .deb packages into /usr/local or /opt !?!?
[05:48] <Pjott> __mikem: Welcome to the biggest problem.   I had SSP, pie, a full PaX kernel, and the option to set up working GrSecurity or SELinux policy :)
[05:48] <Ronz> bluefoxicy, i loved gentoo......when it worked
[05:48] <mistform> wtf is up with ubuntuguide???
[05:48] <minerale> wweasel, nalioth: then why are they not together in one cd? (and what is the package I need to install for KDE? apt-get install kde? )
[05:48] <|thunder> minerale, i think you need two diferent sessions
[05:49] <bluefoxicy> Ronz:  But if you're going to use the system, use it for something useful.  This is not self-torture, you use a system because it fits your needs best.
[05:49] <bruenig> wweasel, this may not be off help to you, but I do recall the same problem occuring in Azureus and the only way to solve in Azureus was to allow it to write the file to the ext3 filesystem and then have it automatically moved after download or to allow encremental file writting which basically did the same thing, so that same problem might exist with firefox, so you may need to just download it elsewhere and them ove it
[05:49] <bluefoxicy> Ronz:  nods, as did I  :)  I could turn on and off ANYTHING, literally.  Like JPEG support :)
[05:49] <Pjott> ERROR: This may be caused of: - an error in libxklavier-library
[05:49] <_Jae> How is it recommended that I upgrade my drivers to Nivida so my 3D processor will actually be used. Not massively important but it'd be nice to have.
[05:49] <nalioth> minerale: kubuntu-desktop will get you kde and all the trimmings
[05:49] <__mikem> Pjott is that word for word?
[05:49] <Pjott> yeah :S
[05:49] <Ronz> bluefoxicy, i know. gentoo took me days to get working, but ubuntu took me 30 min to install. ubuntu has the ease of use of fedora, and the power of gentoo
[05:49] <bluefoxicy> Ronz:  it just so happens I switched off "anything making it possible to hack into the system ever"  :D
[05:50] <__mikem> lol, I don't know what to make of it
[05:50] <Pjott> ERROR: This may be caused of: - an error in xkbcomp, xmodmap-verktyene
[05:50] <__mikem> try dpkg-reconfigure libxklavier-library
[05:50] <Ronz> bluefoxicy, theres no unhackable system...;)
[05:50] <Pjott> hmmm
[05:50] <wweasel> bruenig: how would I have it automatically moved, or how would i allow incremental file writing
[05:50] <bluefoxicy> Ronz:   not entirely the power of Gentoo.   Cool
[05:50] <bruenig> wweasel, yeah those features don't exist in firefox, so it wouldn't be automatic, it would be manual
[05:50] <Pjott> And what I wrote there, I am sure is more usefull than if I paste the Norwegian ;p
[05:50] <Ronz> ardchoille, even then you can hack the box
[05:50] <Ronz> axe anyone?
[05:50] <bruenig> wweasel, but you could write a script and make it really easy
[05:50] <bluefoxicy> Ronz:  You can get pretty damn close, a lot closer than most people think.
[05:50] <ardchoille> Ronz: lol
[05:51] <Ronz> aight, im off to bed. night yall!
[05:51] <_Jae> Another question, while I'm waiting:
[05:51] <Ronz> *shows where hes from*
[05:51] <Ronz> lol
[05:51] <ardchoille> night Ronz
[05:51] <bluefoxicy> Ronz:  I found ways to interfere with 60-80% of security vulnerabilities were alredy out there
[05:51] <linux_user400354> is there a gui app for resizing logical volumes?
[05:51] <bluefoxicy> heh.
[05:51] <_Jae> I have a 250 GB hard drive that I want to use to host files for 2 XP machines and a Mac OS X box. What format do you recommend I put the drive into?
[05:51] <DanaG> !quake2
[05:51] <ubotu> I know nothing about quake2 - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:51] <wweasel> bruenig: If I set it to ask me every time I download it works though. It makes no sense to me why auto-download to the mounted folder doesn't...
[05:52] <ardchoille> wweasel: Do you have permission to write to that mounted folder?
[05:52] <Zambezi> I spoke to a jerk a couple of minutes ago. He said XChat is an exploit and I should worry alot about Ubuntu is unsecure. Is he just talking crap? I need it to be confirmed.
[05:52] <bruenig> wweasel, firefox wont write to the fat32, that is the problem
[05:52] <sethk> _Jae, probably sambafs
[05:52] <nalioth> Zambezi: you'll be fine with Ubuntu
[05:53] <_Jae> Sambafs? Hmm.
[05:53] <bruenig> Zambezi, if you heard it on IRC, do you really need to check it's truthfulness
[05:53] <sethk> _Jae, there are better choices but they require software not standard with windows
[05:53] <wweasel> ardchoille: Yes. If I set Firefox to ask me every time where I want to dl it will happily write to my fat32 partition, if I set it to automatically save there, it makes an empty file with the correct file name.
[05:53] <_Jae> Hmm.
[05:53] <sethk> _Jae, samba is the windows file/print networking compatibility software
[05:53] <Zambezi> nalioth, I thought so. That's why I changed to Ubuntu seven weeks ago.
[05:53] <_Jae> Yeah.
[05:53] <bruenig> wweasel, ah then my Azureus connection is not true
[05:53] <ardchoille> wweasel: that's weird
[05:53] <sethk> Zambezi, that's (about xchat) absurd
[05:54] <wweasel> ardchoille: agreed
[05:54] <wweasel> bruenig: Alright. SOrry I didn't explain clearly the first time.
[05:54] <sethk> Zambezi, besides, you can run any IRC client on ubuntu, not just xchat
[05:54] <henriqueqc> can someone help me install .deb packages into an alternate path like /usr/local or /otp? does "dpkg --instdir=PATH" do the job?
[05:54] <CheetahMk2> Is xchat or bitchx better
[05:55] <henriqueqc> */opt
[05:55] <Zambezi> bruenig, I chat the chatlog. I will do me best to get him blocked from the channel. He also said he could get me IP from be BNC. That was funny. I tried to send a file, but I denied. Then he got mad. :-)
[05:55] <bnD> i would highly appreciate anyone's help.. im attempting to untar a file on a fat32 partition, and im getting ownership/permission errors they are listed here -> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19914
[05:55] <nalioth> CheetahMk2: irssi is pretty good
[05:55] <Pjott> __mikem: root@cm-84:/home/pjott# sudo dpkg-reconfigure xmodmap
[05:55] <CheetahMk2> ok, I'm trying to get the laptop with ubuntu here so I can copy/paste my logs
[05:56] <Pjott> When I wrote that, I didn't get any errors, but nothin happened...
[05:56] <Pjott> exept that it gave me a new line
[05:56] <sethk> CheetahMk2, lots of other ways to transfer files
[05:56] <Zambezi> sethk, I will try Irssi later when I have more energy. It's a little bit tricky because I have BNC.
[05:56] <mistform> http://ubuntuguide.org isn't loading for me
[05:56] <mistform> everything else is, even www.overclockstop.org
[05:56] <sethk> Zambezi, I have no problem with xchat.  I'm just saying that the comment about the safety of ubuntu, relating it to xchat, is nonsense
[05:56] <CheetahMk2>  sethk   Annoying part is I have wifi on that laptop, so it's pretty messy. I don't think the ubuntu default isntall comes with drivers for an Agere chipset
[05:57] <__mikem> Pjott, did that fix it?
[05:57] <sethk> CheetahMk2, use a usb drive or memory card or something similar to transfer the files.
[05:57] <Pjott> __mikem: nope :S
[05:57] <sethk> CheetahMk2, burn a cd-rw
[05:57] <Pjott> But I've updated my computer now. Let me restart :)
[05:57] <__mikem> ok, good luck
[05:57] <CheetahMk2> don't worry, I'll get it figured out. Thanks though
[05:58] <micahcowan> markedwards, did you get your issue resolved?
[05:58] <Zambezi> sethk, Thanks for saying that. It's my 7th week so I'm failrly new. And if somebody says I thing, I won't argue cause I don't talk about things I don't know of.
[05:58] <DanaG> Hmm, I wonder when this Edgy Eft will come out, and what it will give over Dapper Drake.
[05:59] <sethk> Zambezi,  I wasn't being critical of you, I was annoyed at whoever made the remark originally, because, in addition to being wrong, it's ignorant.
[05:59] <micahcowan> DanaG, it comes out october. It's a "cutting edge" release, which means it will have lots of whiz-bang features, but will be (very likely) somewhat unstable.
[05:59] <IcemanV9> Eft will be released in Oct - 6.10 (according to the schedule)
[06:00] <bruenig> you can't necessarily call it ignorance as that means that you know he doesn't know that isn't the truth whereas it could just be a lie (he does know but is saying so anyways)
[06:00] <rixxon> is there any way to get kopete to look more gnomeish
[06:01] <sethk> bruenig, to say that xchat is somehow related to the safety of specifically the ubuntu distribution is ignorant.  I agree, it's only a lie if he knew it was false, but that doesn't mean it isn't ignorant.  :)
[06:01] <Pjott> damn... :S still does not work :/
[06:01] <markedwards> micahcowan: no, for some reason synaptic isn't respecting the new version
[06:01] <sethk> bruenig, ignorance doesn't require intent  :)
[06:02] <bruenig> it does mean it isn't ignorant as ignorant is one who doesn't know the truth, ignorance requires not knowing, you can't assume he doesn't know
[06:02] <markedwards> micahcowan: I tried netatalk_2.0.3~3ubuntu1 and netatalk_2.0.3-3~ubuntu1
[06:02] <DanaG> I just want Speedstep to work on my Yonah.
[06:02] <sethk> bruenig, I don't disagree with that part.
[06:02] <Pjott> __mikem: The keyboard-crap still does not work :/
[06:02] <DanaG> I need 2.6.17 for that.
[06:02] <bruenig> semantics debate likely is not topical, so I shall stop
[06:02] <markedwards> micahcowan: maybe I need netatalk_2.0.3-3+ubuntu1
[06:02] <sethk> bruenig, so he could be ignorant or he could be lying.  :)  I"ll stop also.  :)
[06:03] <dooglus> sethk: if ubuntu ships with xchat as its default IRC client, and the shipped version of xchat has a security hole, then it's not incorrect to say that ubuntu is insecure.
[06:03] <Slaj_R> Has anyone heard of major differences in speed between wireless and wired networking under Dapper?
[06:03] <micahcowan> markedwards, could be, but somehow I doubt it... are you sure the "new" version isn't > 2.0.3?
[06:03] <bruenig> dooglus, my ubuntu didn't have xchat by default
[06:03] <sethk> dooglus, "shipped with" doesn't make sense in that usage.  It isn't "shipped with" xchat any more than it is shipped with all the other IRC clients in the repositories
[06:04] <markedwards> micahcowan: yes, definitely.  yeah, netatalk_2.0.3-3~ubuntu1 should work, no?
[06:04] <marshall__> if i put option 'ro' on my dvd writer and cd writer drives, will i not be able to write cds/dvds?
[06:04] <micahcowan> markedwards, just checking, but you did change the line in debian/changelog, and not just the package name, right?
[06:04] <Zambezi> sethk, I wasn't either. It really feelt like a relief that you "confirmed" that the guy is a nut and just talking crap.
[06:04] <sethk> dooglus, it is true that _one_ of the installation options installs xchat, but that doesn't imply anything about the distro in general.
[06:04] <sethk> Zambezi, I know.
[06:04] <bruenig> dooglus, that was ignorant
[06:04] <bruenig> :)
[06:04] <DanaG> Is it possible to make my WiFi be wlan0 instead of eth1?
[06:04] <markedwards> micahcowan: yes, for sure.  it shows up as netatalk_2.0.3-3~ubuntu1 in synaptic, but synaptic thinks netatalk_2.0.3-3ubuntu1 is newer
[06:05] <Pulshion> Hi, could someone help me whenever i start an mp3 file a movie player starts up...how do i set default programs for specific files. Like i want ever song files open with rhythmobox or every torrent file with azureus if double clicked on
[06:05] <__mikem> Pjott, I really can't help you then. I have never tried to do what you are doing
[06:05] <sethk> DanaG, there is a rename capability, but it's a pita to use.  why do you care?
[06:05] <__mikem> sorry
[06:05] <Pjott> __mikem: That's OK.
[06:05] <Pjott> Thanks for your help anyways ;D
[06:05] <DanaG> Well, I guess there's no real reason.  It's just aesthetics.
[06:05] <bruenig> Pulshion, generally you can right click on it and then select open with another application and then select that app and it will become the default for that filetype
[06:05] <DanaG> I don't even have a WiFi network, anyway.
[06:05] <dooglus> sethk: I'm pretty sure that ubuntu-desktop used to depend (directly or indirectly) upon xchat.  that appears not to be the case any more
[06:05] <sethk> DanaG, manufacturing problems  :)  ?
[06:06] <Pulshion> bruenig -- yea thats what i always do but im kinda tired of it and for torrent files i dont have that option i think
[06:06] <Zambezi> bruenig, Earlier I mean I have the chatlog with the asshole and I will do everything I can to make him blocked in the channel.
[06:06] <DanaG> I just don't need one.
[06:06] <CheetahMk2> Now it works, but the screen wraps around the top a little bit and there's a black bar on the side, and this is a LCD!
[06:06] <wweasel> bruenig: You said I could easily make a script to download things to a temporary location then copy them over? How?
[06:06] <wweasel> bruenig: I think you were on the right track and that will solve the problem.
[06:07] <Awesome-o2000> is virtualization technology so you can run more than one OS at a time?
[06:07] <FaFoo> how should i choose if i want my partition to "round to cylinders"?
[06:07] <DanaG> Hmmm, Toshiba laptops sometimes have an EDID issue.
[06:07] <dooglus> bruenig: it wasn't ignorant.  I said "if", remember?  and breezy's ubuntu-desktop did depend on xchat
[06:07] <DanaG> Is that in any way related to anyone's problems?
[06:07] <dooglus> bruenig: see http://packages.ubuntu.com/breezy/base/ubuntu-desktop
[06:07] <markedwards> micahcowan: maybe because I'm not re-downloading the source before buildling?
[06:08] <bruenig> dooglus, it was a joke
[06:08] <floppyears> hi
[06:08] <DanaG> Oh, I do have an issue with DHCP.
[06:08] <DanaG> Namely, it doesn't work.
[06:08] <Awesome-o2000> my dog used to have floppy ears
[06:08] <floppyears> does anybody here have one of the new mac intel laptops running with ubuntu ?
[06:08] <FaFoo> hmm, even google doesn't know what "rounding to cylinders" is. :(
[06:08] <Awesome-o2000> Im going to adopt another one soon with big giant floppy lips and ears
