[12:07] <rebugger> james296: what do you mean with "maximize/minimize"?
[12:08] <james296> what I mean is when you minimize or maximize a window
[12:08] <Jack_Sparrow> rafaelscj:  /var/cache/apt/archives... and yes you can

[12:11] <aguitel> rebugger, my problem is a laptom with 64 ram memory (pentium 2) and i can not install xubuntu alternative cd
[12:11] <Jack_Sparrow> !flash
[12:11] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[12:11] <TerraMaster> thank you
[12:12] <rafaelscj> Jack_Sparrow, so I can use "Ctrl+c" "Ctrl+v"
[12:12] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[12:12] <rebugger> aguitel: take the server-cd - install server - so u have a minimal system with no GUI - then u could install fluxbox - its really leightweight
[12:12] <aguitel> rebugger , give me the link
[12:12] <stefg> !minimal | aguitel
[12:12] <ubotu> aguitel: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[12:12] <rafaelscj> Jack_Sparrow, to another computer and install
[12:13] <Jack_Sparrow> rafaelscj: I dont understand.. ctrl c and v  copy and paste what?

[12:23] <yeniklasorr> How can I start a new terminal session from command line?

[12:24] <ttuttle> Hey, I'm a Gentoo user, and I'm considering switching to Ubuntu 'cause it's just less hassle.  How is 64-bit support on Ubuntu?
[12:25] <m1x> ttuttle its working fine
[12:25] <troythetechguy> I'm running 6.10, and Kino continues to freeze when capturing video.  The Kino website shows version 1.1.1 was recently released.  How do I install the 1.1.1 version?
[12:25] <scipio> ttuttle, i didn't use it but from what i've heard it's so so. you'll have to fiddle around with some stuff. not all applications run in 64bit
[12:25] <ttuttle> scipio: Should I just run the 32-bit version?
[12:25] <yeniklasorr> scipio : I connected with ssh. I wanna use X. How can I use it ?
[12:26] <rexy_> troythetechguy,  you can either enable backports and install it from there or upgrade to a new ubuntu version
[12:26] <stefg> ttuttle: it's not so much a question of how ood *ubuntu* is at 64bit, but how to get the nonfree stuff to work (codecs, flash)
[12:26] <rexy_> you can enable backports just for that program but it might break stuff too
[12:26] <scipio> ttuttle, well as far as i know 64bit it's worth it only if you have lots of ram. over 3G. so yes
[12:26] <ttuttle> stefg: Yeah, Gentoo has the same issues.  My hope would be that, once Ubuntu solved them, they would simply be available or everyone.
[12:26] <troythetechguy> rexy_, At this time I'd like to wait for the next Ubuntu release, so how do i enable backports?
[12:26] <ttuttle> scipio: Oh, no no no... you get double the CPU registers, and they're twice as big.  So things run faster too.
[12:27] <m1x> ive got like only 1gb of ram and it seems to work fine so far..
[12:27] <rexy_> troythetechguy, the next TLS you mean?
[12:27] <stefg> ttuttle: that's a problem with the vendors, not with Linux in general. beerfree != speechfree
[12:27] <troythetechguy> rexy_, Just read your next post, I don't want to break anything!
[12:27] <troythetechguy> rexy_, Not sure what TLS is.
[12:27] <scipio> ttuttle, ooh :) then it depends how enthusiastic you are about making it work i guess :)
[12:28] <rexy_> you are running ubuntu 6.10 right, the current ubuntu version is 7.04
[12:28] <ttuttle> scipio: I've been running Gentoo ;-)
[12:28] <scipio> :)
[12:28] <rexy_> TLS is long support ubuntu, but i think thats 6.04 even
[12:28] <scatyb> can anyone help me with a grub problem?
[12:28] <troythetechguy> As an alternative, does anyone know of a reliable video capture application, besides Kino?
[12:28] <scipio> !ask | scatyb
[12:28] <ubotu> scatyb: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:28] <yeniklasorr> scipio : I connected with ssh. I wanna use X. How can I use it ?
[12:28] <ubuntufan> hello guys ...
[12:29] <ubuntufan> where can i find my windows partitions ?
[12:29] <scatyb> I can't get the grub menu.  when I boot up, all I get it grub?
[12:29] <rexy_> troythetechguy, in your repository's you can add backports as a section, and then update kino, but quite likely it will require a fair amount of other packages to be updated
[12:29] <scatyb> *brub>\
[12:29] <scatyb> *grub>
[12:29] <MajorVictory> i think i erased myself....
[12:29] <MajorVictory> anyone here know much about restoring a partition?
[12:29] <scipio> yeniklasorr, i'm not sure. i'm only answering to simpler questions :) i don't have much experience yet
[12:30] <ubuntufan> can you guys please tell me where can i find my linux partitions ?
[12:30] <stefg> !testdisk
[12:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about testdisk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:30] <gnuskool> MajorVictory, whats the prob?
[12:30] <ubuntufan> aaa windows
[12:30] <stefg> !info testdisk
[12:30] <ubotu> testdisk: Partition scanner and disk recovery tool. In component universe, is optional. Version 6.5-1build1 (feisty), package size 550 kB, installed size 1784 kB
[12:30] <MajorVictory> well i was trying to install ubuntu
[12:30] <yeniklasorr> ok
[12:30] <scipio> ubuntufan, are you dual booting?
[12:30] <ubuntufan> what is that ?
[12:30] <MajorVictory> wait a sec
[12:30] <gnuskool> MajorVictory, what happened?
[12:31] <MajorVictory> i'll brb
[12:31] <scipio> ubuntufan, are you using more than one OS on the same machine? like windows?
[12:31] <MajorVictory> i gotta sweitch to another computer
[12:31] <ubuntufan> scipio, i have windows on a hard drive, and ubuntu on another
[12:31] <scatyb> how can I get the grub boot menu back?
[12:31] <scipio> ubuntufan, you can fix grub from the livecd. let me give you a link
[12:31] <Yarcanox> how can I search for folders
[12:31] <ubuntufan> aaaa i don`t have a problem with grub ..
[12:31] <Yarcanox> the search seems only to cover files
[12:32] <ubuntufan> i want to listen music with XMMS from my other drive
[12:32] <m1x> oh my gosh beryl is 2 sexy
[12:32] <rexy_> troythetechguy, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports explains how to do backports
[12:32] <scipio> ubuntufan, ooh. i'm answering to the wrong person. lol. sorry
[12:32] <KlrSpz> where's the best repo to get kibadock from?
[12:33] <scipio> scatyb, here is a link to fix your grub: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351&highlight=recover+grub
[12:33] <KlrSpz> scatyb: didn't fix it?
[12:33] <scatyb> I've done "root (hd0,0)" "setup (hd0,0)" and still nothing.  I get grub> upon reboot
[12:33] <ubuntufan> so.. how can i access a windows partition ?
[12:33] <Sivik> ubuntufan, remotely or locally?
[12:34] <ubuntufan> locally
[12:34] <KlrSpz> scatyb: that's cuz that's wrong
[12:34] <scatyb> haha...i'm so retarded
[12:34] <KlrSpz> it's *root (hd0,0)* and *setup (hd0)
[12:34] <KlrSpz> not hd0,0 on setup
[12:34] <scatyb> hrm
[12:34] <Sivik> ubuntufan: mount -t ntfs /dev/device /mnt/location
[12:34] <stefg> scatyb: i guess this is a problem with the bios. the disk order flips during boot, so grub never see its config file
[12:34] <ubuntufan> just that ?
[12:35] <Sivik> unless you want rw and then you have to use ntfs3g or something along those lines
[12:35] <KlrSpz> ntfs-3g for the win
[12:35] <VSpike> stefg: will it play video and do photo display just as well as the binary?
[12:35] <Sivik> ubuntufan, KlrSpz is correctly
[12:35] <ubuntufan> :) aah .. i have 3 windows partions...
[12:35] <scatyb> thanks klrspz....I'll reboot and see if that does it.
[12:35] <Nu11> I'm having problems installing 7.04 server on a PowerMac G5.  Is this the right place to ask some questions?
[12:35] <ubuntufan> So, please give me the correct cmd.. please!
[12:35] <inAbsurdum> ubuntufan: if you want to read/write to the windows disk you need to install ntfsprogs. sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs
[12:36] <ZaZall> hehe
[12:36] <KlrSpz> what do you people use for htpc's that's NOT myth
[12:36] <rexy_> think so Nu11
[12:36] <stefg> VSpike: unless you don't need realplayer, w32codecs or flash, 64bit is as good as 32 bit. It's just some hassle to have a 32bit chroot for all the stuff not available for 64bit
[12:36] <ZaZall> Looks like there are more pple here with ntfs disks on ubuntu
[12:36] <Calix> ive got a question about managing splash screens/themes, whats the best utility to do it with?
[12:36] <Nu11> The main problem is that the G5 uses a k2 Broadcom SATA controller, so I can't get the installer to mount the CD or hard drive.
[12:36] <ubuntufan> inAbsurdum, ok, now what?
[12:36] <Thursty> ok for some reason the ati driver isn't all correct
[12:37] <Nu11> There doesn't seem to be a stat_svw module with the installer...?
[12:37] <VSpike> stefg: sorry, I was asking about free nvidia driver versus binary driver
[12:37] <inAbsurdum> ubuntufan: after installing ntfsprogs/ntfs-3g then you can either mount manually each time you want to, or edit the /etc/fstab file to mount the drives every time you log in.
[12:37] <snooo> hi
[12:37] <Thursty> anyone know how to install a driver for linux
[12:37] <Sivik> Thursty, what kind of driver?
[12:37] <Thursty> video
[12:37] <KlrSpz> Thursty: usually you have to compile it against the kernel headers
[12:37] <inAbsurdum> thursty what video card?
[12:37] <ubuntufan> inAbsurdum, and how do i mount?
[12:38] <snooo> i have a USB phone, works as an USB audio device, and the volume for the microphone constnatly resets to 0. it used to work fine. any ideas what could be causing a problem?
[12:38] <stefg> VSpike: i'm not sure if xv video works, but for 'office'-use you should be fine with it
[12:38] <Thursty> radeon 9000 pro
[12:38] <Sivik> !ati | Thursty
[12:38] <ubotu> Thursty: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:38] <rexy_> Nu11, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ
[12:38] <Thursty> that doesn't help me
[12:38] <Thursty> i try to do it and it says i don't have any drivers that need it
[12:38] <inAbsurdum> ubuntufan: do you know what the drives are listed as? (/etc/hda2 for example)
[12:38] <Nu11> Yeah, I already went through that and it didn't have anything specific on the G5.
[12:38] <troy-> how can i create a script that runs at SSH login?
[12:39] <ubuntufan> yep
[12:39] <Nu11> Is it just not supported yet?
[12:39] <Thursty> but anyways i screwed up my xorg.conf and can't boot into it
[12:39] <Sivik> Thursty, you know there is a way to fix that right
[12:39] <Nu11> (although it says *ALL* NewWorld Macs should be supported)
[12:39] <ubuntufan> itz /etc/hdc2
[12:39] <inAbsurdum> ok, so open your /etc/fstab file (sudo gedit /etc/fstab)
[12:39] <Sivik> Thursty, something like dpkg-reconfigure xorg-xserver
[12:39] <snooo> any ideas?
[12:39] <Sivik> or something along those lines
[12:39] <Thursty> i tried sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf_backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:39] <Thursty> and it didn't restore it
[12:40] <Sivik> Thursty, do the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:40] <Thursty> ok 1 sec
[12:40] <Calix> could anyone tell me what the program/mod is in this screenshot which embeds system statistics into the desktop? http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net/images/shots/exoduz_fluxbox.jpg
[12:40] <ubuntufan> and.. ?
[12:40] <Thursty> but is there any way to install an ati driver into kernel or w/e
[12:40] <rexy_> Nu11, well the controller appears to be supported in linux, not sure why it wont work with your ubuntu though
[12:40] <Thursty> cause the performance is really horrible
[12:41] <rexy_> can you boot the livecd and access the disks?
[12:41] <MajorVictory> ok i'm back
[12:41] <inAbsurdum> ubuntufan: add a new line for each drive: /dev/harddisk ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.UTF-8 0 0 8change the drivename to corresponding and the locale to another one if you're not in the US)
[12:41] <Sivik> Thursty, your not going to get much better, ati and linux aren't grand, i have a express 200m and can't get over like 200 fps with glxgears
[12:41] <Nu11> hmmm
[12:42] <MajorVictory> so anyways ithink i erased myself
[12:42] <ubuntufan> and after that i have to reboot ?
[12:42] <MajorVictory> i was installing ubunut, and when it came to the partition part,
[12:42] <Nu11> The problem seems to be that the sata-svw driver doesn't seem to be part of the liveCd installation.
[12:42] <Blauhaut> Guys how can i see my tvcard chipset ?
[12:42] <MajorVictory> i accidentally clicked "edit" instead if right-slicking and add
[12:42] <inAbsurdum> ubuntufan: nope, just save the file and then type in terminal: sudo umount -a &&sudo mount -a
[12:42] <Slart> Calix: hmm.. I've tried that.. hmm.. what was it called.. I think it was in the repos
[12:42] <Thursty> the dpkg thing doesn't work
[12:43] <Thursty> it says can't open display
[12:43] <ubuntufan> device busy .. x5
[12:43] <exsequor_> Does anyone know any really good Gnome themes?
[12:43] <Blauhaut> How can i see my TVcard Chipset ?
[12:43] <MajorVictory> who was it who was going to help me with my partition problem?
[12:43] <rexy_> Nu11, do you get any errors, can you do an lspci and paste the exact type of the controller, also you can look in dmesg to see what drivers were loaded
[12:43] <Blauhaut> exsequor_;  check gnome-look.org
[12:43] <inAbsurdum> ubuntufan: yeah, that's normal. do the umount -a first, then mount -a
[12:43] <ubuntufan> same thing
[12:44] <ZaZall> I have a problem with a ntfs disk that i whant read/write permission on. i've got ntfsprogs, ntfs-3g, ntfs-config. ive also added /dev/hdb1   /media/hdb1   ntfs-3g   defaults,locale=en_US.utf8   0   0 to my /etc/fstab file. but it just won't work. any ideas ?
[12:44] <ubuntufan> mount: mount point ntfs-3g does not exist
[12:44] <Thursty> bah
[12:44] <inAbsurdum> ahyeah, sorry, you need to specify a mountpoint.
[12:44] <Thursty> i'm just gonna switch back to windows
[12:44] <Thursty> thx for helpin
[12:44] <Blauhaut> ubuntufan;  mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/ITEM /media/ITEM -o force
[12:45] <MajorVictory> can anyone help me restore a partition?
[12:45] <stefg> ZaZall: the filesystem might be unclean. If so then ntfs-3g switches to readonly to not damage the filesystem further
[12:45] <Nu11> rexy: just a minute.
[12:45] <inAbsurdum> sudo mkdir /media/windows1 for example
[12:45] <rexy_> MajorVictory, restore a partition how?
[12:45] <Sivik> you can also do a force and it doesn't matter if its dirty
[12:45] <Sivik> but that might really screw stuff up
[12:45] <rexy_> i was just about to say, heh
[12:46] <ubuntufan> mount: mount point /media/hdc1 does not exist
[12:46] <MajorVictory> well i was installing ubuntu
[12:46] <Blauhaut> ZaZall; try that $ sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/hdb1 /media/hdb1 -o force
[12:46] <rexy_> ubuntufan do you have sata or parrallel ata?
[12:46] <MajorVictory> and when i came to the partitioning par6t i clicked edit
[12:46] <ZaZall> stefg. so a chkdsk then i guess.
[12:46] <MajorVictory> instead of add
[12:46] <ubuntufan> ata
[12:46] <Blauhaut> ZaZall; ok ?
[12:46] <inAbsurdum> you need to create the folder first :)
[12:46] <ZaZall> Blauhaut: oki.
[12:46] <stefg> ZaZall: right, but from windows. There is no ntfs checking util in Linux
[12:46] <ubuntufan> that`s for me inAbsurdum  ?
[12:46] <rexy_> MajorVictory, and now?
[12:46] <MajorVictory> so now my main partition, with the windows system on it, isn't recognized as ntfs, but rather swap
[12:46] <Blauhaut> ZaZall; call me if it is ok
[12:46] <inAbsurdum> ubuntufan: yeah.
[12:47] <rexy_> ah
[12:47] <Slart> Calix: I think it's conky.. check this screenshot (bottom one) http://www.ubuntugeek.com/conky-a-light-weight-system-monitor-for-ubuntu-linux-systems.html
[12:47] <inAbsurdum> ubuntufan: create a folder, for example sudo mkdir /media/windows1
[12:47] <rexy_> well as long as you didnt boot you can toggle it back to a windows partition
[12:47] <MajorVictory> it took litearlly 2 seconds before an error occured and then it told me the partition called with swap was empty
[12:47] <ZaZall> Blauhaut: NTFS signature is missing.
[12:47] <ZaZall> that strange.
[12:47] <Slart> Calix: but I seem to recall that it wasn't so light-weight.. well.. you give it a try yourself
[12:47] <ubuntufan> done inAbsurdum
[12:47] <rexy_> can you edit that particular partition and set it back to ntfs or whatever it was?
[12:47] <Blauhaut> ZaZall; try to install ntfs-3g package ok ?
[12:48] <MajorVictory> i can't
[12:48] <ubuntufan> mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/hdc1 /media/windows1 -o force ?
[12:48] <ZaZall> Blauhaut: ntfs-3g is installed.
[12:48] <rexy_> are you still in the partitioning section?
[12:48] <MajorVictory> the power flickered and the computer shutdown
[12:48] <ZaZall> /who Blauhaut
[12:48] <MajorVictory> so i think i got screwed
[12:48] <RenatoSilva> I have a curious problem
[12:48] <inAbsurdum> then add it in your /etc/fstab line: /dev/hdb1 /media/windows1 ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US,UTF-8 0 0
[12:48] <Blauhaut> ubuntufan; sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/hdc1 /media/windows1 -o force
[12:48] <rexy_> MajorVictory, did you try to boot windows?
[12:48] <Blauhaut> ZaZall; umm that is so strange
[12:48] <MajorVictory> i did and it won't even recognize the partition
[12:48] <ubuntufan> mount: unknown filesystem type 'ntfs-3g'
[12:49] <Blauhaut> ZaZall; try to remove it
[12:49] <MajorVictory> it only looks at the other one that was on the disk
[12:49] <MajorVictory> the one with no os on it...
[12:49] <apropos> totem has never, ever, ever worked.
[12:49] <Blauhaut> ubuntufan; sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g
[12:49] <rexy_> MajorVictory, you can boot the livecd, go into the partitioning tool again and put the partition back to ntfs
[12:49] <apropos> after years of trying. Why is it in ubuntu again?
[12:49] <MajorVictory> i hooked it up to another XP computer and looked at the partition, windows doesn't recognize the partition type, but it does know it's there
[12:49] <Nu11> rexy, lspci = 0001:05:0c.0 IDE Interface: Broadcom K2 SATA
[12:49] <Blauhaut> ZaZall; try to remove all ntfs packages and install them again
[12:49] <ubuntufan> jesus Failed to access '/dev/hdc1': No such file or directory
[12:50] <rexy_> yeah you need to change that MajorVictory
[12:50] <MajorVictory> i tried but the option to use ntfs wasn't in the menu
[12:50] <GNine> after crashing my puters xserver 3 times, i decided i better leave the installation of compiz for way later
[12:50] <rexy_> do you know what the partition is called in linux?
[12:50] <Blauhaut> ZaZall;  and do not forget to check autoremove
[12:50] <Blauhaut> ubuntufan; sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g
[12:50] <Blauhaut> ubuntufan; sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/hdc1 /media/windows1 -o force

[01:09] <paulcooperorama> rexy -- I am trying to add IE for some school stuff
[01:09] <RenatoSilva> I use APTonCD to cache my updates and extras, but sometimes I install stuff that I don't want anymore. For example, I've installed FlightGear that come with a lot of dependencies. But I've noticed that now my CD is busy, and I don't want this game anymore. The question is: how to remove a package AND its dependencies???
[01:09] <Gnea> !ask
[01:09] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)

[01:18] <paulcooperorama> I dont want it to say "unknown"
[01:19] <rexy_> if it says unknown that means it has no associated user
[01:19] <astro76> paulcooperorama, that error is normal

[01:19] <paulcooperorama> I wanna beable to change files on this machine
[01:19] <apropos> paulcooperorama: set a root password and login as root. Then you can do anything.
[01:20] <apropos> you might wish you hadn't, but you'll be able to. :-)
[01:20] <RoAkSoAx> AcidMaX, try howtoforge.com
[01:20] <paulcooperorama> how do you log in as root
[01:20] <sal> hello
[01:20] <astro76> !sudo | paulcooperorama
[01:20] <ubotu> paulcooperorama: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[01:20] <paulcooperorama> if I try it tells me that root can not log on
[01:20] <apropos> paulcooperorama: you set a root password, and then you can login as that. sudo is much better, tho.
[01:20] <astro76> paulcooperorama, there's no need to set a root password, and it's not recommended
[01:20] <bkj> NOwone can help me for the resolution problem ????
[01:21] <Blauhaut> mrksbrd; /dev/sdb1      /media/usbhd     ntfs-3g    rw,user,auto    0       0

[01:21] <sal> i'm using the the xchat ubuntu client. why does it have onlyt the ubuntu server? where can i get other servers?
[01:21] <available> paulcooperorama,  all i can say is u might want to do a total reinstall of ubuntu and make a user account and password
[01:21] <bruenig> it is necessary for some things
[01:21] <bruenig> if for instance you use the slim login manager

[01:23] <bkj> I have installed ubuntu on VirtualBox and everything was ok but at the end i choosed only 800x600 and 640x480 resolutions, now i need 1024x768
[01:23] <bkj> help
[01:23] <bkj> help
[01:23] <available> paulcooperorama,  yes but being root is so bad its so very easy to mess things up and crash something
[01:23] <Blauhaut> paulcooperorama; write su on shell
[01:24] <ckin2001> why is being root bad?
[01:24] <Blauhaut> ckin2001;  easy to mess
[01:24] <astro76> ckin2001, it's explained on the RootSudo page
[01:24] <available> ckin2001,  cause u can easly mess something up unlike reg user u haev to type sudo
[01:24] <Scunizi> ckin2001, because most forget to exit leaving your sys wide open.. sudo is temporary
[01:25] <Blauhaut> good timing :P
[01:25] <paulcooperorama_> wow what happened there
[01:25] <Scunizi> you left
[01:25] <paulcooperorama_> me no
[01:25] <ckin2001> ahhh, protect you from yourself
[01:25] <Scunizi> you right?
[01:25] <available> exactly ckin2001
[01:25] <_gpg_> hello
[01:25] <paulcooperorama_> ok so where did I go?
[01:25] <paulcooperorama_> any rate
[01:25] <Scunizi> away
[01:26] <_gpg_> i'm looking for a debian package of sunbird, does it exist please ?
[01:26] <available> hi there _gpg_
[01:26] <dcordes> !mount
[01:26] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[01:26] <astro76> paulcooperorama_, the other you is still connected ;)
[01:26] <bruenig> Scunizi, most forget to exit, haven't heard that one before
[01:26] <RoAkSoAx> _gpg_, go to packages.ubuntu.com
[01:26] <paulcooperorama_> ok so how does one log on as either root or sudu
[01:26] <dcordes> !hdd
[01:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hdd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:26] <Scunizi> bruenig, you like that? :)
[01:26] <astro76> !sudo | paulcooperorama_
[01:26] <ubotu> paulcooperorama_: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[01:26] <ckin2001> @bruenig - thats the only one that seemed reasonable
[01:26] <dcordes> How can I find out which /dev/x a device is getting assigned to?
[01:26] <dcordes> usb hdd
[01:26] <ckin2001> lsusb?
[01:26] <Actionman> what do this mean and how do i fix this: Aug 26 18:24:20 bknox-laptop firmware_helper[23104] : main: error loading '/lib/firmware/bcm43xx_microcode5.fw' for device '/class/firmware/0000:06:02.0' with driver '(unknown)'
[01:26] <koshari> paulcooperorama_ you dont log on as root, you simply prefix root commands with sudo
[01:26] <bruenig> ckin2001, I think the more likely reason is that being this is meant to be a beginner distro, the multiple users and the multi lever permissions is not something they want to burden users with
[01:27] <RenatoSilva> RoAkSoAx: only from Feisty right????
[01:27] <paulcooperorama_> I have looked at that
[01:27] <_gpg_> !opensync-plugin-sunbird
[01:27] <bruenig> level*
[01:27] <Scunizi> bruenig, perhaps I'm wrong but if you "su" in the terminal you have root priv. until you "exit".  Right?
[01:27] <available> koshari,  he cant do sudo
[01:27] <bruenig> Scunizi, yeah, but I don't think most people forget to exit
[01:27] <mrksbrd> Blauhaut, still showing root for a user, but @ least now it's letting me write to it
[01:27] <koshari> available is he a mamber of the sudo users?
[01:27] <dcordes> !dev
[01:27] <ubotu> Interested in becoming an Ubuntu Developer? Get started here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment

[01:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about device - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:28] <Blauhaut> mrksbrd; ehe
[01:28] <paulcooperorama_> so if I wanna change the permissions of all of the filesystem how do I do that in term
[01:28] <dcordes> !harddiskdrive
[01:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about harddiskdrive - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:28] <available> koshari,  no it sayes he does not have write permision
[01:28] <astro76> paulcooperorama_, why do you think you need to do this?
[01:28] <Scunizi> paulcooperorama, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions
[01:28] <bruenig> paulcooperorama_, be careful

[01:29] <w1nst0n> howdy
[01:29] <koshari> paulcooperorama you will need superUser priveliges to do that, why dosnt sudo work?
[01:29] <AskJeeves> If I am about to install a net wireless card, what preperations do i need to do? I will not have access to the internet if something goes wrong.

[01:29] <nathan__> what's it called in beryl where you move mouse to the top right of screen and it shows active windows again? is that scale?
[01:30] <bjames> right, I've got a Sony laptop and after some messing about I've got the screen brightness working, although the only way I can change the brightness is with a bash script - is there a way I can bind the script to a given shortcut key combination?
[01:30] <w1nst0n> chainloader +2?
[01:30] <AskJeeves> bruenig, where are the docs for that please
[01:30] <bruenig> ward_, of course I haven't anything better to do, if I had something better to do I wouldn't  be in here
[01:30] <Blauhaut> mrksbrd; than what is the problem ?
[01:30] <apropos> AskJeeves: have ndiswrapper installed and the windows drivers available, check linux hardware databases, etc. Maybe try with a live CD so you don't nuke a configuration?
[01:30] <bruenig> AskJeeves, what card is it?
[01:30] <Yarcanox> how can I seach for folders
[01:30] <AskJeeves> umm... one sec.
[01:30] <Yarcanox> and not only for files

[01:36] <paulcooperorama_> astro76 I am trying to add IE 6 to the my laptop
[01:36] <astro76> paulcooperorama_, with wine?

[01:37] <m1x> !ntfs
[01:37] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[01:37] <Trey> Can you show us the output of the 'mount' command on your system?
[01:37] <apropos> paulcooperorama_: if you want to install IE6, I'd suggest using something like crossover office.
[01:37] <m1x> !ntfs-3g
[01:37] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[01:37] <bruenig> inbitado34, I doubt that that is what caused it
[01:37] <paulcooperorama_> astro76 no
[01:37] <apropos> is IE6 supported under feisty?
[01:37] <paulcooperorama_> astro76 either orama or paul is fine
[01:38] <astro76> paulcooperorama_, how are you doing it, because IE is a windows program, not linux
[01:38] <paulcooperorama_> astro76 I know it is MS
[01:38] <paulcooperorama_> I have some school stuff that needs IE
[01:38] <Scunizi> apropos, never.... directly.... you must use wine and ies4linux
[01:38] <ckin2001> ie works in wine, but its dirty
[01:38] <astro76> paulcooperorama_, so then what were you trying to edit that you needed to change permissions?
[01:38] <ckin2001> try #winehq
[01:39] <inbitado34> bruenig, don't know really eather
[01:39] <apropos> but it is supported, with the correct packags?
[01:39] <paulcooperorama_> astro76 the /etc/apt folder
[01:39] <astro76> paulcooperorama_, you might look into "IEs 4 Linux" which will easily setup a few versions of IE with wine (windows emulator for linux)
[01:39] <astro76> paulcooperorama_, ok, there's no reason to do that
[01:40] <rstewpowe> is crossover linux worth it?
[01:40] <Scunizi> apropos, when answering a post please include the nick of the person in the text to "beep" that person..
[01:40] <paulcooperorama_> astro76 I can not add wine either without changing this folder
[01:40] <astro76> paulcooperorama_, what file do you need to edit?
[01:40] <Scunizi> apropos, you can find out about ie on linux here.. http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/news/
[01:40] <meoblast001> yay
[01:41] <Jack_Sparrow> ie4linux is another bad idea...  ask #winehq their opinion
[01:41] <meoblast001> i have finally found out how to do on linux the only 2 things that kept me using windows
[01:41] <m1x> !ntfsfix
[01:41] <Scunizi> paulcooperorama, did you use synaptic to get wine or did you download it directly?
[01:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfsfix - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:41] <paulcooperorama_> astro76 the /etc/apt/sourse.list folder
[01:41] <astro76> paulcooperorama_, so then do : gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:41] <Scunizi> Jack_Sparrow, good for testing and that's about it.
[01:42] <astro76> paulcooperorama_, when prompted for password, enter your user password
[01:42] <paulcooperorama_> astro76 there are other files for school that I need to change around as well
[01:42] <astro76> paulcooperorama_, stuff is owned by root for a reason, so you can't accidentally screw up your system, not to mention the whole security of a linux/unix system
[01:42] <meoblast001> if Metacity doesn't recognize a window do i just leave it be?
[01:42] <m1x> need some advice here... what would be the best music player?
[01:42] <ben_> I just changed my login password. I'm the only user on this computer. Will the password requested everytime I do sudo also change?
[01:42] <astro76> paulcooperorama_, you just use sudo or gksudo when you need to edit stuff with root permissions
[01:42] <available> paulcooperorama_,  i sent u a pm please take a look
[01:42] <w1nst0n> nevermind..
[01:42] <SOARain> join
[01:42] <paulcooperorama_> astro76 some in the /etc folder but others as well
[01:42] <mmvii> meoblast how do you mean?
[01:42] <Jack_Sparrow> winehq walked me through what I needed to to when I had a program that required IE...  It didnt need to be installed...  just parts...
[01:43] <ben_> nevermind
[01:43] <mhiku> what software can i install to many computers to combine their memory, ram and harddisk space using lan to be like one super computer or virtualize
[01:43] <astro76> paulcooperorama_, that warning you posted before when you did gksudo gedit, that is perfeclty normal and it will work fine
[01:43] <meoblast001> mmvii: metacity doesn't recognize FL Studio.. the application is always on top and is not recognized by the window selector
[01:43] <Scunizi> m1x, Amorak, vlc, rhymbox etc.. totally your choice.
[01:43] <paulcooperorama_> available how do I recieve the pm?
[01:44] <meoblast001> mmvii: it isn't much of a problem but if i could fix it i wouldn't have to resize it just to save a file
[01:44] <Scunizi> m1x, got an ipod?... amorak
[01:44] <WombRaider> which 3d environment do you guys use?
[01:44] <WombRaider> beryl, compiz, etc
[01:44] <m1x> Scunizi nah, but a Sansa, thanks thou buddy
[01:44] <available> paulcooperorama_,  look un the left side box should say #ubuntu and thn myname

[01:46] <necro_> can someone help me connect 2 external hard drives via usb to samba?
[01:46] <paulcooperorama_> astro76 -- is there a way to change this???
[01:46] <necro_> I added them to my smb.conf, but no go.
[01:46] <meoblast001> mmvii: well its a Windows app that doesnt even have a standard windows title bar
[01:46] <paulcooperorama_> other than that I have to go back to fedora 5 and try to install nic drivers for this laptop
[01:47] <astro76> paulcooperorama_, you're not understanding what I'm saying I guess
[01:47] <airstrike> hello
[01:47] <available> hello airstrike
[01:48] <matt3453> anyone know why flash in firefox would work fine, but not play audio?
[01:48] <airstrike> how come my clock says 20:47 and gaim shows 15:47?
[01:48] <lashmoove> what's up with the missing text and underscores using wine to run windows apps?
[01:48] <Scunizi> paulcooperorama_, let me give this a shot... your "home" directory you have control over... totally.. without root.  system files or installation of programs requires "root" access acheived by typing "sudo command"
[01:48] <available> airstrike,  what one is right ur gaim or ur one on toolbar?
[01:49] <meoblast001> lashmoove: Wine is misterious... i have an app that makes words look highlighted after rolling off of them
[01:49] <airstrike> toolbar is right
[01:49] <mmvii> meoblast001 I'm guessing you're using wine
[01:49] <meoblast001> yup
[01:49] <paulcooperorama_> astro76 I understand what you are saying I guess I am not making myself clear
[01:49] <TheManiacKY> Question: Is there an easy way to make Open Office export straight to GOogle Docs? Instead of having to save the file navigate to the web site pick the file to upload and etc.  File,Export to Google Docs would be ideal. Anyone see such a thing?
[01:49] <airstrike> toolbar is set to sync with servers
[01:49] <available> airstrike,  then in the toolbar in gaim should be a way to tune it to the right time
[01:49] <paulcooperorama_> I am an adult student
[01:49] <mmvii> No window decoration?
[01:49] <Scunizi> TheManiacKY, that and calendar sync would be great
[01:49] <meoblast001> mmvii: no
[01:49] <apropos> TheManiacKY: sounds like a great idea for a plugin for open office...
[01:49] <paulcooperorama_> I have to have a form of linux up and running stable
[01:50] <airstrike> it's as if gaim didn't accept any changes
[01:50] <meoblast001> mmvii: its a program called FL Studio if you ever worked with it
[01:50] <lashmoove> meoblast001, oh. ok I know its very buggy and unsuported, but i just installed wine-doors and fired up ei just to see if it worked.. and I can barely read anything
[01:50] <emiliano> buenas
[01:50] <airstrike> if i change my toolbar clock to, say, 21:47 (an hour later), gaim still gives me the same time
[01:50] <paulcooperorama_> but I also need to be able to change files Fedora 5 can do that
[01:50] <available> matt3453,  install the flashplayer plug in google that up and download the open source one
[01:50] <available> airstrike,  no its in ur gaim box
[01:50] <meoblast001> lashmoove: oh that sucks... wish i could help... im having Wine problems too now
[01:50] <apropos> airstrike: sounds like gaim isn't reading your time zone information correctly.
[01:50] <lashmoove> meoblast001, im sure im not the only one to experience this, so I then grabbed all the fonts from my windows machine, and the system folder and system32, but still no luck
[01:50] <paulcooperorama_> is it possible to change the filesystem folder so I am in control of it
[01:50] <mmvii> I know the app - not clear on why metacity isn't handling it
[01:50] <Manignug> I have a tutorial and a configure.sh file that tries to do a ./configure. I get an error ./configure not found. am i missing a build package?
[01:51] <airstrike> i can't find any options on gaim to set a new time
[01:51] <lashmoove> meoblast001, ok ill post on the forums then
[01:51] <astro76> paulcooperorama_, why can't you use gksudo gedit?
[01:51] <paulcooperorama_> if I mess it up I can reload it and start over
[01:51] <necro_> Can anyone help getting external usb drives working with samba?  I added them in smb.conf, but no luck.
[01:51] <paulcooperorama_> astro76 -- for every change??
[01:51] <available> airstrike, is should be beside accounts or buddies
[01:51] <astro76> paulcooperorama_, how often do you think you need to change system administration stuff? not often
[01:52] <paulcooperorama_> astro76 -- as I said I am an adult student. I change things quite often. saving things all the while
[01:52] <available> necro_,  sorry i cant get my usb ports to work at all lol
[01:52] <necro_> :P
[01:52] <airstrike> i have tools next to accounts, which gives me preferences/plugins/privacy/file transfers/system log
[01:52] <apropos> paulcooperorama_: you could always create a launcher that launched your editor with gksudo...
[01:52] <koshari> paulcooperorama you are in control of the filesystem if you have the root password, siply use sudo
[01:52] <astro76> paulcooperorama_, in fedora you were probably logged in as root, in X, which is the worst security risk ever.. Ubuntu enforces good system admin practice
[01:53] <Scunizi> paulcooperorama_, try gksudo nautilus, find your directories or files, right mouse click and choose properties. In there will be a place to change permissions.
[01:53] <uavstrebe> how can i get apt-get to work in recovery mode?
[01:53] <available> airstrike,  if if u dont see the time change int here somewhere i got no idea never messed with it i use pidgin and mine is synced to the toolbar
[01:53] <airstrike> should i move over to pidgin?
[01:54] <paulcooperorama_> astro76 -- I can not find drivers for this machine for fedora 5 for the nic
[01:54] <airstrike> this is really ticking me off
[01:54] <meoblast001> airstrike: alll i saw was move to pidgin and i recomend Kopete
[01:54] <Sivik> airstrike, what seems to be your problem?
[01:54] <available> its up to u airstrike  i got the .deb one to auto install
[01:54] <super61> i have been installing this OS forever is it going to be slow on running?   the OS is ubuntu 7.04 alternative
[01:54] <Sivik> super61, what are your system specs?
[01:54] <meoblast001> airstrike: Gaim has problems and pidgin isnt much different
[01:54] <available> Sivik,  his time is not synced with the time on the toolbar
[01:54] <airstrike> sivik: time in gaim isn't the same as toolbar time
[01:54] <Fezzler> How do I check the settings of a ttyUSB0 port...meaning 9600-8-N-1-XON etc?
[01:54] <kkathman> Ive had no such problems with gaim  or pidgin actually
[01:54] <super61> hp N3390 128 mb 600mkz
[01:54] <paulcooperorama_> astro76 I am trying to learn how to become an administrator the instructor has been trying to shove fedora down my throat
[01:55] <Sivik> airstrike, i would go to kopete, thats what i use on my ubuntu box and my winblows 2k3 box at work
[01:55] <airstrike> i'll give it a whirl
[01:55] <paulcooperorama_> astro76 if I can not change these permissions I can not continue to use ubuntu...
[01:55] <kkathman> kopete is more kde-based however
[01:55] <available> paulcooperorama_,  can u send me a pm? or is ur name not registered
[01:55] <airstrike> yeah
[01:55] <airstrike> im still a noob when it comes to kde/gnome stuff
[01:55] <apropos> the URL the bot gives out for searching factoids appears to be invalid.
[01:55] <kkathman> kopete isnt a very stable program imho
[01:55] <gnuskool> super61, on what system? mine runs quick
[01:55] <paulcooperorama_> available what is a pm?
[01:56] <airstrike> don't know whether or not choosing something kde-based should be a problem or not
[01:56] <available> paulcooperorama_,  its a private message
[01:56] <kenvy> I guess I timed out
[01:56] <super61> gnuskool: a laptop
[01:56] <bigfuzzyjesus> lappys are teh hax
[01:56] <airstrike> haha
[01:56] <gnuskool> super61, it will probably run faster once installed
[01:56] <available> airstrike,  i use gnome but have  a few kde things installed and working fine
[01:56] <kkathman> airstrike:  when im using kde I still use gaim/pidgin much less overhead and more reliable over the years.
[01:56] <super61> gnuskool: ok
[01:56] <super61> i hope
[01:56] <kkathman> but thats just my experience
[01:57] <paulcooperorama_> available --- i click on your name right?
[01:57] <kenvy> anyone know how to get rid of the following problem: Listening to music and running TeamSpeak simultaneously won't work, because the media player says audio device is in use

[01:57] <kkathman> the new pidign plugins are very nice also :)
[01:57] <apropos> kenvy: use a sound server
[01:57] <available> paulcooperorama_,  if ur a registerd user u can send me a pm yes by rightclicking names
[01:57] <kenvy> apropos how what im confused ^
[01:57] <airstrike> i guess i'll try both and see what works best
[01:57] <apropos> or don't, use alsa, kenvy
[01:57] <apropos> !alsa
[01:57] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

[02:16] <Ravenndude`> I rebooted my PC and now my sound does't work. Neither onboard nor my sound card, but the speakers work when hooked up to my laptop.
[02:16] <astro76> !info ntfsprogs | kenvy
[02:16] <ubotu> kenvy: ntfsprogs: tools for doing neat things in NTFS partitions from Linux. In component main, is optional. Version 1.13.1-6 (feisty), package size 267 kB, installed size 700 kB
[02:17] <ubuntu> Hey folks, good to be back
[02:17] <ubuntu> major issue
[02:17] <madman91> !norway
[02:17] <ubuntu> well not really
[02:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about norway - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:17] <kenvy> how come I never think of that -.-
[02:17] <blix> test
[02:17] <blix> hi folks
[02:17] <uavstreb1> Fezzler i had issues with that but it was purely a permission problem.  did you try sudo before using the interface software?
[02:17] <blix> I'm in live cd mode at the moment
[02:17] <Fezzler> ua: yes
[02:18] <blix> I'm trying to fdisk my /dev/hda to an ntfs partition..
[02:18] <blix> but it keeps saying the drive is not writable
[02:18] <wishwish> Anyone here have any experience of getting an onboard Realtek ALC882 Soundcard working? :)
[02:18] <blix> and is read only
[02:18] <blix> how do make the partition write only?
[02:18] <blix> do I*
[02:18] <whta> blix: you need to enable ntfs write support
[02:18] <gortba> Hi everyone. I was wondering if anyone knows how to mount a logical volume LVM
[02:18] <whta> !ntfs
[02:18] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[02:19] <uavstreb1> Fezzler sorry i gotta go wish i could stay longer and help
[02:19] <blix> whta - and how do I do that?
[02:19] <Dunas> Is there a way to make a .deb install on a different architecture than the one it was made for?
[02:19] <uavstreb1> :(
[02:19] <dibblego> how do I get my hostname change to survive a reboot?
[02:19] <whta> !ntfs-3g|blix
[02:19] <ubotu> blix: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[02:19] <jimmygoon> How do I check an ENV variable?
[02:19] <garryfre> set
[02:19] <dibblego> jimmygoon, echo $VARIABLE
[02:19] <garryfre> at a console
[02:20] <blix> so how do I install this driver?
[02:20] <jimmygoon> er, my LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not set
[02:20] <jimmygoon> :S
[02:20] <wishwish> Dunas: if it meets the dependies ... dpkg -i should work
[02:20] <wishwish> dkpg -i foo.deb
[02:20] <blix> and I'm definitely in root
[02:20] <whta> blix: there's a link right there that says "installation instructions"
[02:20] <wishwish> If it doesn't, you're probably best off getting the source and compile it yourself
[02:20] <Dunas> wishwish: Thanks.
[02:21] <blix> waht: Right ok, I'm taking a look
[02:21] <gortba> anyone?
[02:21] <richie_> Every package I install comes up as not authenticated.. I'm using the standard ubuntu sources (no 3rd party repository's)... I was messing with the live cd when I installed ubuntu.. I may of broke it then. Can I reinstall the ubuntu GPG keys?
[02:21] <richie_> I have ubuntu 7.04
[02:22] <wishwish> Anyone have any experience or suggest for getting a Realtek ALC882 onboard sound card working?
[02:22] <gortba> or is it possible to mount an LVM that's on a different Hard Drive than my current operating system?
[02:22] <rawrr> can somebody help me really quickly?
[02:22] <matt3453> can anyone help me figure out why i cant mount a partition? i get - "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /temp
[02:22] <matt3453> mount: special device /dev/sda1 does not exist
[02:22] <matt3453> "
[02:22] <richie_> gortba: theres some guides if you search around on google
[02:22] <rawrr> im installing ubuntu, and its asking about disk partioning...
[02:22] <rawrr> for the new partion do i want that to be high or low?
[02:23] <rawrr> never mind
[02:23] <rawrr> figured it out
[02:23] <richie_> rawrr: make sure you have backed up all data
[02:23] <phenom> :)
[02:23] <gortba> richie: thanks, I've been looking but there is only how to's on mounting LVM's that are on the same hard drive
[02:24] <richie_> gortba: Oh I managed to mount another drive from a guide i googled
[02:24] <kenvy> allthough I have ntfsprogs installed i still get the error I should be getting ntfsfix 1.13.1
[02:24] <gortba> richie: thanks. I'll keep looking
[02:26] <astro76> kenvy, what are you doing that is giving you that error?
[02:26] <blix> Im so nackered
[02:26] <matt3453> http://pastebin.com/d7951f690
[02:26] <matt3453> can anyone tell me why i cant mount the partition?
[02:26] <dibblego> how do I add a user to the admin group?
[02:27] <VSpike> matt3453: what makes you think it should be on /dev/sda1 ?
[02:27] <matt3453> VSpike: cause thats where its at?
[02:27] <matt3453> according to fdisk anyway
[02:28] <kenvy> astro76 first I typed sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs, then ntfsfix /dev/sda5
[02:28] <VSpike> matt3453: does "ls -l /dev/sda*" show anything?
[02:28] <kenvy> astro76 Failed to startup volume : Permission denied
[02:28] <kenvy> Volume is corrupt. You should run chkdsk.
[02:28] <astro76> kenvy, you will need to use sudo with ntfsfix, and /dev/sda5 will need to be unmounted
[02:29] <matt3453> VSpike: matt@matt-desktop:~$ sudo ls -l /dev/sda*
[02:29] <matt3453> brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 0 2007-08-25 19:34 /dev/sda
[02:30] <madman91> how do i make blkid start without using cache?
[02:30] <richie_> I fixed my problem.. if anyone has problems with their ubuntu GPG keys.. reinstall ubuntu-keyring
[02:30] <kenvy> couldnt find package..
[02:30] <richie_> :)
[02:30] <necro_> Can anyone help me with samba?  I can't get 2 external hard drives working.  They're already working / mounted in ubuntu.
[02:30] <necro_> astro: those url's don't help / apply.  But thanx.
[02:30] <wayoutthere> Hi can anyone tell me how to shrink a pdf down a bit? I am using XSANE to scan in about 10 pages and the resulting pdf is over 20 megs!
[02:32] <wolferine> !offtopic | wayoutthere
[02:32] <ubotu> wayoutthere: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:33] <matt3453> VSpike: just figured it out.... the entry for the partition was commented out in fstab
[02:33] <kenvy> astro76 I guess I have no choice but to root myself
[02:33] <wayoutthere> I see so helping someone actully get some use out of Ubuntu and its apps doesnt fall under Ubuntu support. Sounds like Microshafts policy
[02:33] <Ravenndude`> I rebooted my PC and now my sound does't work. Neither onboard nor my sound card, but the speakers work when hooked up to my laptop.
[02:33] <kenvy> !root
[02:34] <ubotu> do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[02:34] <astro76> kenvy, what's the problem now?
[02:34] <astro76> wayoutthere, it's not offtopic don't worry :)
[02:34] <VSpike> matt3453: wierd
[02:34] <barbarianhero> hey all, Just isntalled ubuntu on an old laptop of mine, the fonts look really crappy, any idea of what I could od?
[02:34] <kenvy> Volume is corrupt. You should run chkdsk.
[02:34] <wayoutthere> Thank you Astro76
[02:34] <matt3453> VSpike: i just reinstalled ubuntu, so maybe the install hid it or something?
[02:35] <barbarianhero> it's a pretty old thinkpad, running ion3 instead of gnome...I had a similar setup w/ another distro(gentoo) and the fonts looked just fine
[02:35] <MerlinsLair> @barbarianhero you may need to download the extra fonts possibly from automatix
[02:35] <astro76> !automatix
[02:35] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.  When it fails and breaks systems, we don't provide support for it.  A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[02:35] <barbarianhero> I think it might have used Xfree86, so not sure if it's some config thing in x.org or just a different way the distros configed the graphics
[02:35] <Yarcanox> the ubuntu search doesn't search when I am using / as the search directory
[02:36] <Yarcanox> err at least the nautilus search is it
[02:36] <barbarianhero> hrm.  Maybe i can look into that.
[02:37] <Yarcanox> I am searching for a folder, and it does just nothing
[02:37] <Yarcanox> when searching in /home, it works (it searches and all)
[02:37] <Yarcanox> but when searching in / , it doesn't start with the search at all
[02:37] <astro76> barbarianhero, I wouldn't recommend automatix, it's a piece of junk, see that link for more info
[02:37] <wishwish> Anyone have any suggestions on how can make the snd-hda-intel module available without having to compile alsa by hand?
[02:37] <Yarcanox> I am searching this damn game folder for hours now :(((
[02:37] <VSpike> Yarcanox: If that search is based on beagle, then that would be to do with how it's configured I think
[02:38] <VSpike> Yarcanox: use find from the console instead
[02:38] <barbarianhero> astro76, Yeah I don't think I want to mess with that.  Getting ubuntu onto this system was a lengthy process and not one I would like to repeat
[02:38] <barbarianhero> it's working just fine now, only wish the fonts were a little clearer.
[02:39] <astro76> barbarianhero, look into changing the font hinting
[02:39] <VSpike> Yarcanox: e.g. find / -iname "*thegamename*" -type d
[02:39] <astro76> might be it
[02:40] <Yarcanox> vspike I just did find / gamename
[02:40] <AcidMaX> how do i change my feisty install to only get packages from the internet
[02:40] <AcidMaX> it keeps looking for my cd
[02:40] <barbarianhero> astro76, yeah googling this looks promising
[02:40] <Yarcanox> find: adonthell: No such file or directory o.O
[02:40] <Yarcanox> there must be at least one executable named this way
[02:40] <Yarcanox> this is strange
[02:41] <AcidMaX> nvm i missed my sources.list
[02:41] <asdf> Does anyone know when Awn will be considered stable?
[02:41] <mmvii> Yarcanox locate
[02:41] <Skrypt> How do I open a movie in a .bin file?
[02:41] <VSpike> Yarcanox: mine is case insensitive and wildcarded, and only returns directories
[02:41] <codecaine> is there a software that lets me record myself with my webcam like its a camrecoder?
[02:42] <Yarcanox> when using -iname it seems to search in some forbidden root stuff only vspike
[02:42] <MerlinsLair> ok, why is automatix junk?
[02:42] <Yarcanox> find / "*gamename*" -type d worked though
[02:42] <Yarcanox> but not with that -iname thing
[02:42] <super61> hello my laptop cant see my usb adapter any resone why?
[02:42] <astro76> !automatix | MerlinsLair read this link for a thorough analysis
[02:42] <ubotu> MerlinsLair read this link for a thorough analysis: Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.

[02:42] <MerlinsLair> ok, thx man
[02:43] <Yarcanox> find: adonthell: No such file or directory
[02:43] <Yarcanox> vspike again... but .adonthell exists
[02:43] <Yarcanox> it is in my home folder
[02:43] <super61> any one know why?
[02:43] <Yarcanox> this sux, why can't I just search for stuff
[02:43] <necro_> Is it possible that samba won't work with a certain drive due to mount options?
[02:46] <mmvii> Yarcanox have you tried locate instead of find?
[02:47] <Yarcanox> no... I found it with searching for all *.ogg files because I knew that ogg was in there
[02:47] <MerlinsLair> astro76...thanks for the heads up! appreciate it
[02:47] <Yarcanox> but this is just crap, and an easy-to-use system should have a working search
[02:47] <Yarcanox> the standard search (not nautilus) works fine - but why the hell can't I search for directories??
[02:47] <super61> hello i have a netgear wg 111 v2 and a laptop with ubuntu 7.04 alternative and it cant see it any resone why?
[02:47] <kenvy> astro76 what happens if I reinstall ubuntu and change mount of the other drives to "/" will I then be able to read/write?
[02:47] <Yarcanox> or at least I haven't found the button for it
[02:47] <Yarcanox> and I think it's a shame that I needed so long to find this directory
[02:47] <raumin> hello
[02:48] <GNine> Yarcanox, u might have good ideas.. you should try coding some of them
[02:48] <GNine> >:)
[02:48] <Yarcanox> GNine a good standard search is not just a good idea, that this would be needed is just obvious
[02:49] <Yarcanox> but it is not there, only integrated into nautilus where it doesn't work with /
[02:49] <searayman> can i get some help with a patch for kopete?

[02:52] <ironmatar> what do you mean  i got the western digital 250 because it had a 16mb chach
[02:52] <jimmygoon> why is /usr/local/lib not in ubuntu's library path
[02:52] <VSpike> Yarcanox: I think the default search is designed for finding documents, music, email, etc. only.  IOW, personal data.  Couldbe wrong though.
[02:52] <lastnode> viqas: no such package. i already sinstalled xfs
[02:52] <Yarcanox> yep VSpike but why not for folders
[02:52] <viqas> ironmatar: i wouldnt trust my porn with a western digigtal hard drive
[02:52] <astro76> lastnode, dpkg -S /usr/share/fonts
[02:52] <Yarcanox> this is personal data too

[02:53] <Yarcanox> even the lame windows search can do this!!
[02:53] <Yarcanox> ok might be less lame in vista, dunno
[02:53] <astro76> kenvy, I'm not sure where you are at, did you sudo umount /dev/sda5 and then sudo ntfsfix /dev/sda5 ?
[02:53] <viqas> any one here good with dhcpd ?

[02:54] <Frogman> hi
[02:54] <vrkhans> the realtek card is the wireless card
[02:54] <viqas> vrkhans: did you use google?
[02:54] <GNine> dhcp is automatic
[02:54] <GNine> !dhcp
[02:54] <vrkhans> no

[02:55] <Sau1> hi there
[02:55] <kenvy> astro76 NTFS partition /dev/sda5 was processed successfully. however now I get: "cannot mount volume." when trying to access drive
[02:55] <ironmatar> viqas:  i have the sudo gdm stop and start commands  i just want to make shure i have the sequencing right
[02:55] <Menth> vrkhans you will probably need to use ndiswrapper
[02:55] <vrkhans> it is intalled but not active
[02:55] <Sau1> i need some quick help
[02:55] <viqas> ironmatar: no idea   i dont run X  on my machines.
[02:55] <vrkhans> and I dont know how to make it active
[02:56] <viqas> vrkhans: there must be some tool that could help you with it in ubuntu
[02:56] <craven> hello i have a netgear wg 111 v2 and a laptop with ubuntu 7.04 alternative and it cant see it any resone why?
[02:56] <Sau1> im telling you my problem
[02:56] <vrkhans> that what I am trying to find out if there is any
[02:57] <ironmatar> finnaly got gaim to work properly for irc commands too
[02:57] <treedy> hi
[02:57] <Sau1> i have 2 hard disks. and i installed xubuntu in the slave. the other disk is completely formated in NTFS. I want to format it to ext3 but it has the BOOT flag, will be there any problem if i just format it and add to the fstab???
[02:58] <treedy> that, http://imaj.at/21219
[02:58] <treedy> how to do what?
[02:58] <Sau1> so?
[02:58] <GNine> i used gparted to turn a whole 40 gig NTFS partion to EXT3 , no problem
[02:58] <kenvy> rebooting
[02:59] <phaedra> craven,  What chipset is the netgear card?
[02:59] <Sau1> oh yeah, thats my plan
[02:59] <ironmatar> unfourtinatly i dont know the answer
[02:59] <Sau1> to use gparted
[02:59] <Sau1> but being my xubuntu instalation in a slave hard disk and the boot flag in the nfts partition , it may be trouble ... or not??
[03:00] <VSpike> saul: I don't think it will be a problem.  Which disk is booted by the BIOS?
[03:00] <daytona89> is there a bootloader that is an alternative to GRUB? Maybe something graphical/polished?
[03:00] <Sau1> ....not quite sure
[03:00] <GNine> daytona89,  u being silly now
[03:00] <daytona89> GRUB is fugly
[03:00] <Sau1> let me think
[03:00] <astro76> how long do you spend in GRUB?
[03:00] <Sau1> i installed everything in the slave disk
[03:01] <daytona89> yea, this is true... :)\
[03:01] <Sau1> is it ok?
[03:01] <GNine> u can still modify a few options on grub.. i just dont care to go into that .. i dont need to see grub for too long anyway
[03:01] <alteregoz> Anyone have some knowledge on configuring Samba on ubuntu??
[03:01] <Sau1> the question is
[03:01] <Menth> saul go into the bios and make the slave disk boot first and remove the master from the boot order. if the machine boots you should be good to just wipe the master
[03:01] <daytona89> I have 2 choices as to which kernel I want to use. How do I remove the old one?
[03:01] <Sau1> is there any problem if i give format to a partition with the BOOT flag?
[03:02] <Bjornalf> wait you see grub? i see a "hit escape" prompt for 3 sec then ubuntu loads
[03:02] <opopanax> what's up with all these non-authenticatable packages?
[03:02] <opopanax> feisty
[03:02] <daytona89> Basically I want it to give me a choice of Windows or Ubuntu, not 5 variants of each...
[03:02] <astro76> daytona89, 2.6.20-16 and 2.6.20-15 ?
[03:02] <daytona89> Yes.
[03:03] <Sau1> ..that yes was for me?
[03:03] <daytona89> astro76: yes, that's right.
[03:03] <GNine> careful with that Menth
[03:03] <astro76> daytona89, go into synaptic, search for 2.6.20-15, and uninstall everything that is selected
[03:03] <soskel> Is there a way so when my computer starts, it goes right into windows, but if I start my computer, and hold down F12 for example, it will load ubuntu?
[03:03] <opopanax> daytona, you should just remove the kernel package you don't want anymore, and grub-update should remove the offending entry.
[03:03] <daytona89> Ok, cool.
[03:03] <nixNewb> i downloaded a ubuntu cd, but when i try to select install or check cd my computer will reboot
[03:03] <Menth> ?
[03:04] <opopanax> soskel, yes.  you can make windows your default with a short timeout.
[03:04] <scipio> daytona89, about the grub screen: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=208855&highlight=howto+grub+suse don't blame me if something goes wrong :)
[03:04] <opopanax> make it so it doesn't show the grub menu, but you can hit a key to enter the menu
[03:04] <Sau1> so, i must not formtat that partition
[03:04] <soskel> opopanax: what boot loader would I use, and how do I set the timeout?
[03:04] <opopanax> grub, and not sure, hold on.
[03:04] <necro_> Is it possible samba won't work with a drive due to it's mount options?
[03:05] <GNine> like i said.. silly ... leave the grub alone.. it might save your life one day
[03:05] <scipio> :)
[03:05] <astro76> necro_, I think it's more likely samba isn't set up right
[03:05] <necro_> astro: I have 5 drives working with it.
[03:05] <necro_> Just these two externals won't.
[03:05] <daytona89> in Synaptic, what heading do I find the Kernel packages under?
[03:05] <ironmatar> is there a firewall to config on ubuntu
[03:05] <fam> Hello, I'm having problems running apt-get update
[03:06] <astro76> daytona89, just hit search, pick Look in name, and enter 2.6.20-15
[03:06] <fam> I get this error: Failed to fetch http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy-commercial/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2  Sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (2)
[03:06] <GNine> !firestarter
[03:06] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[03:06] <m1x> I'm really starting to lose my patience... why is it so hard to get full access to my own drives...
[03:06] <Bjornalf> necro_: what happens with samba?
[03:06] <opopanax> ok, soskel :  edit /boot/grub/menu.lst (lst as in 'list', not '1st')
[03:06] <fam> But I don't even have that canonical.com repository in my sources.list file
[03:06] <craven> hello i have a netgear wg 111 v2 and a laptop with ubuntu 7.04 alternative and it cant see it any resone why?
[03:06] <necro_> Bjomalf: I have samba working with my 5 internal hard drives.  But these 2 externals won't share.  I think it may be due to the auto-mount options.
[03:06] <nixNewb> can someone help me install ubuntu?  when i try to install it just reboots
[03:07] <soskel> opopanax: so that would be edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:07] <Sau1> i need help there
[03:07] <Sau1> here
[03:07] <opopanax> soskel, if windows is your second entry, you should have a line that says 'default 1'
[03:07] <opopanax> soskel, yes
[03:07] <GNine> somebody illustrate mlx about Chown command
[03:07] <opopanax> soskel, you should have a short timeout, so a line that says 'timeout 3' should do it.
[03:07] <opopanax> soskel, and finally, a line that says 'hiddenmenu'
[03:07] <soskel> hoky doky, thanks a lot, the command would be gkedit sudo edit /boot/grub/menu.list
[03:07] <Sau1> i need to format a ntfs partition which has the BOOT flag. what can i do????
[03:07] <opopanax> and that's it, soskel
[03:08] <soskel> opopanax: and I should set the timeout to 0?
[03:08] <Prince> software firewalls are for the paranoid
[03:08] <daytona89> astro76: do I remove everything brought up by that search?\
[03:08] <craven> Sau1: use a nuke disc
[03:08] <astro76> daytona89, yes
[03:08] <Sau1> nuke dism?
[03:08] <Sau1> disk
[03:08] <opopanax> soskel, easier to open a terminal and just do 'suno nano -w /boot/grub/menu.lst'
[03:08] <craven> well you got windows or linux?
[03:08] <opopanax> *sudo not suno
[03:08] <fam> Does anybody know why I am getting this error when trying to run apt-get update?
[03:08] <fam> Failed to fetch http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy-commercial/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2  Sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (2)
[03:09] <ironmatar> yes but am i paranoid enough!
[03:09] <Sau1> i got linux
[03:09] <Prince> lol
[03:09] <craven> Sau1: got a linux cd?
[03:09] <soskel> ok brb
[03:09] <Sau1> i had a windows install long ago
[03:09] <nixNewb>  can someone help me install ubuntu?  when i try to install it just reboots
[03:09] <opopanax> soskel, i'll be back in a few, making dinner
[03:09] <craven> Sau1: ok that well redo the HD for you
[03:09] <GNine> SuperUser DO
[03:09] <astro76> fam, two possibilities, you either need to do a sudo apt-get update, or you have something in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
[03:09] <Prince> nixNewb, ain't that point to reboot to the desktop?
[03:10] <astro76> fam, ah you did update
[03:10] <Prince> maybe remove the cd and see if it boots to unix
[03:10] <Sau1> i think i may explain my situation
[03:10] <Prince> off the hdd
[03:10] <nixNewb> Prince, it reboots, then goes again to the menu to select install, check cd, etc
[03:10] <Sau1> i got 2 hd's
[03:10] <fam> is sources.list.d a default source list I'm geussing?
[03:10] <craven> Okey ~
[03:10] <Prince> nix, when u reboot afte r the install finishes u need to take the cd out
[03:10] <astro76> fam, you can add repos in separate files which are formatted like sources.list
[03:10] <phaedra> nixNewb, Are you installing from the live cd?
[03:10] <Bjornalf> nixNewb: do you ever get to the desktop with the installer?
[03:11] <craven> hello i have a netgear wg 111 v2 and a laptop with ubuntu 7.04 alternative and it cant see it any resone why? can someone help after there done?
[03:11] <nixNewb> it never goes to the point of installing it
[03:11] <nixNewb> sever cd
[03:11] <nixNewb> as soon as i click enter it says something quickly, then reboots
[03:11] <Prince> nixNewb, have u verified the cd md5sum
[03:12] <Prince> to make sure its not corrupt
[03:12] <nixNewb> how would i do that?
[03:12] <fam> Thanks, astro, I think this might help out.
[03:12] <astro76> fam, was something in there?
[03:12] <nixNewb> hold on, googling for it
[03:12] <ironmatar> nixNewb:     once you have the install  as volume    places ,computer, mount volume     reboot hold down eject button on cd
[03:12] <Prince> md5sum of the cd is on ubuntu site beside the cd download
[03:13] <ironmatar> make shure  u get the cd out before grub starts
[03:13] <nixNewb> i'm on a windows box now
[03:13] <nixNewb> i'm trying to install it on another box
[03:13] <astro76> nixNewb, you can get a command-line md5sum for windows
[03:13] <astro76> nixNewb, to check the .iso
[03:13] <nixNewb> just downloaded it
[03:14] <IndyGunFreak> also burn a a slow rate, 2-4x...
[03:14] <astro76> !md5
[03:14] <ubotu> To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[03:14] <m1x> !mount
[03:14] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[03:15] <fam> Astro, I found the canonical repository in a file in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d directory and it looks to have fixed the problem
[03:15] <fam> I just commented it out.
[03:15] <fam> Thanks
[03:15] <ironmatar> nixNewb:  if you dont get the cd out before grub starts it boots the cd agian
[03:15] <nixNewb> ironmatar, i'll try that, i need to unplug the monitor to see it
[03:15] <BrendanW> I can't resize windows in Ubuntu :/ Ugh.
[03:16] <IndyGunFreak> BrendanW: gparted should be able to resize an ntfs partition
[03:16] <nixNewb> btw, i've checksummed it, where do i find the checksum it should be
[03:16] <GNine> i have tried burning ISOs at 1x and still cant make one right
[03:16] <m1x> !ntfsprogs
[03:16] <nixNewb> checksummed the iso
[03:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfsprogs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:16] <GNine> lol
[03:16] <nixNewb> cf462501e2dc1b82b96dfc497a0404a2
[03:16] <IndyGunFreak> GNine: then you're having some other issue, what type of media are you using?
[03:16] <Prince> nixNewb, I think i said it was on ubuntu site where u download it
[03:16] <BrendanW> IndyGunFreak: I mean like, windows, not like MS Windows. Like xchat, or Firefox. I can't resize viewable windows.
[03:16] <Sau2> im sorry
[03:17] <astro76> BrendanW, using compiz or beryl?
[03:17] <IndyGunFreak> BrendanW: wow, thats wierd.
[03:17] <Sau2> sorry
[03:17] <fangorioous> when i try to format a dvd+rw in gnomebaker it says i don't have to format I can just overwrite. but browsing on nautilus I can't delete anything from the disk. how do i format/erase the disk?
[03:17] <Sau2> my connection died
[03:17] <BrendanW> astro76: compiz-fusion
[03:17] <Sau2> as i was saying
[03:17] <nixNewb> its not there, i just linked to it: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[03:17] <astro76> BrendanW, figured, try #compiz-fusion or #ubuntu-effects
[03:17] <Sau2> hey craven are you still there?
[03:17] <BrendanW> Alright
[03:17] <GNine> cd/dvd , ubuntu 7.04, nice drivers.. i gave up on it .. my system is good .. i just dont have a backup plan per se
[03:17] <GNine> ha!
[03:18] <ironmatar> at least that is how i got it to work  i was having the problem of grub seizing the cd and not letting me eject it before boot  i ahd to hold the eject button til it opend before grub start
[03:18] <mdp79> Just upgraded to Fiesty and I now show two wireless devices for my laptop, wifi0 and wlan1, is this normal?
[03:19] <ironmatar> anyway be back in a bit
[03:19] <GNine> a wireless router does have a wired port..
[03:19] <nixNewb> where do i find the md5 checksums for isos?
[03:19] <opopanax> soskel, did you get it figured out?
[03:19] <foo25> I've looked everywhere, but can't find the command to edit xorg.conf from within command line, can anyone remind me? =P
[03:20] <fangorioous> foo25 sudo vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:20] <Menth> noooooooo use nano
[03:20] <astro76> nixNewb, you can get it from any mirror
[03:20] <soskel> opopanax: no
[03:20] <Menth> vi is nasty
[03:20] <raumin> yop,i tried "restricted Devices Manager" but bug...
[03:20] <soskel> I messed up
[03:20] <fangorioous> Menth: personal preference
[03:20] <opopanax> soskel, do you know what you did wrong?
[03:20] <soskel> I was using xandros, and the boot manager wasn't grub
[03:20] <foo25> I wasn't sure if nano worked with Ubuntu, because I seen it on other distro's forums, sorry, should have tried it =P
[03:20] <kitche> vim is nice vi can be nasty if not setup right :)
[03:20] <Menth> i know but nano is easyer to use
[03:20] <foo25> Thanks very much guys
[03:21] <opopanax> soskel, oh, just install grub.  lilo sucks ass.
[03:21] <GNine> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg    thats what i use
[03:21] <Ninja> has anyone here ever remastered an Ubuntu or Debian install CD?
[03:21] <astro76> nixNewb, http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/MD5SUMS
[03:21] <soskel> opopanax: if I install grub, will it over write lilo?
[03:21] <GNine> or.. u can use nano if your are handy with the OS
[03:21] <foo25> All I did was add Option "RightEdge" "5700" in xorg.conf and it stopped booting XD
[03:21] <foo25> I prefer nano, if it's the same as I used last time
[03:21] <Menth> hehe i hope you can a backup first!
[03:22] <foo25> I hate messing with that reconfiguration first
[03:22] <GNine> tru
[03:22] <foo25> I didn't backup XD I didn't think a simple Synaptics edit would mess it up lol
[03:22] <nixNewb> astro76, thank you
[03:22] <foo25> I was trying to define the scroll edge, and it stopped working O.o
[03:23] <GNine> foo25,  sometimes the hard way is the best way to learn
[03:23] <foo25> lol
[03:23] <foo25> I've messed xorg.conf up countless times XD
[03:23] <mistone> yea me to
[03:23] <foo25> Back to linux! Thanks ;)
[03:23] <GNine> i should know bout that.. i like messing up
[03:23] <IndyGunFreak> foo25: me to.. i keep a backup of a good one that i can restore if necessary..lol
[03:23] <albertico> hi
[03:23] <foo25> I'm gonna backup one, if I get this one fixed =P
[03:24] <benzs_s> does azureus have any obvious conflicts with compiz-fusion?
[03:24] <fangorious> anyone know how to format a dvd+rw?
[03:24] <Menth> yeah i messed up my video today messing about with xserver-xorg-video-intel :(
[03:24] <albertico> what is the chanel name of tribe 5 gutsy?
[03:24] <fangorious> ubuntu+1
[03:24] <foo25> Is it easier to reboot, or start X again?
[03:24] <astro76> foo25, you just need to restart X
[03:24] <foo25> To see if the fix worked that is
[03:24] <IndyGunFreak> foo25: just run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and take the defaults, it will get you back to a workable desktop
[03:24] <GNine> i like rebooting if am sure what i changed
[03:24] <nixNewb> <--- Good checksum
[03:24] <aman> hi astro76
[03:24] <foo25> Indy, I would, but I know exactly what to change
[03:25] <nixNewb> i'll try takign out the cd
[03:25] <ad_>
[03:25] <IndyGunFreak> foo25: oh ok,  makes sense
[03:25] <foo25> Anyway, time to fix this mess =P

[03:25] <daytona89> astro76: 2 q's... what's the difference btwn 'remove' and 'completely remove'? & Do I *need* 2.... - 15 at any point down the road?
[03:26] <jon__> how do i get my wireless card to show up in ifconfig? im pretty sure the right module is loaded
[03:26] <aman> astro76 i got a new idea may i have to install driver in ubuntu 7.04
[03:26] <Sau2> ok im telling my story from the beggining
[03:26] <Sau2> ia have 2 hd's
[03:26] <astro76> daytona89, completely remove also removes configuration files (like --purge with apt-get), I don't think the kernel has config files but it's safe to completely remove
[03:26] <ironmatar> !nvidia
[03:26] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:26] <Menth> i was trying to get eve-online to work and i dont think it works with the i810 drivers was hoping the other ones would work with it
[03:26] <astro76> daytona89, you won't need it, -16 was a security update
[03:26] <aman> astro76 am i right
[03:27] <astro76> aman, for what? I forget
[03:27] <dezmin> how do I start two sessions of X? like, one on Alt-F7 and another on Alt-F8
[03:27] <freak124> hi, I have a question, I hope someone is able to help me: When I installed ubuntu I took 3 partitions: swap, root and home. Now I'd like to change back to 2 partitions if that's possible?
[03:27] <astro76> dezmin, I forget the hard way ;) but if you edit your menu you can add a New Login entry to System Tools
[03:27] <Bjornalf> is xmms the best music player? i have .ogg and .mp3 files
[03:27] <IndyGunFreak> freak124: why?
[03:27] <Skrypt> How do I install FISH for XChat? Just drop xfish.so into ~/.xchat2/? Don't I need to run './xfish.so'?
[03:28] <aman> astro76 i talked to u for setting up internet connection in ubuntu
[03:28] <Prince> what is fish
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> Skrypt: what is fish?
[03:28] <freak124> IndyGunFreak-->I have a dual boot with windows and I want to make another partition for windows, wich is impossible because I have 4 partitions yet
[03:28] <Sau2> master has an installation of windows and old data which i dont want any more. slave disk has xubuntu instaled and valueble data and time spent configurating. I want to format the master disk to ext3 so i can use it easily as storage unit. The problem is that the ntfs partition has a BOOT flag. I think there will be a problem if i just give format. Can some one give some advice on this??
[03:28] <Menth> Sau2 restart the machine, enter the bios, change the boot order to slave, remove master from the boot order, save and exit if the machine boots you should be ok to make sure you can removed the master drive this will just be like formating it
[03:28] <GNine> !gparted | freak124
[03:28] <ubotu> freak124: GParted is is a !GUI partitioning program. Type  sudo apt-get install gparted  in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[03:28] <astro76> aman, you're going to have to refresh my memory ;)
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> GNine: id on'tt think gparted will help him
[03:29] <nixNewb> back
[03:29] <Skrypt> IndyGunFreak: It's IRC encryption
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> Skrypt: oh ok.
[03:29] <nixNewb> so i select install, then i take out the cd, it then just boots to the hd, which is wondows
[03:29] <m1x> !tar
[03:29] <aman> astro76 actually i need to setup an internet connection in ubuntu 7.04
[03:29] <ubotu> Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression
[03:29] <GNine> to make another partition for windows means he wants another NTFS .. so
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> freak124: htats gonna be tough, I'm not sure you can do that.
[03:29] <freak124> no, gparted doesnt work, I can't expand my windows partition for some odd reason
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> GNine: no, you need to re-read his question
[03:29] <aman> astro76 i have a direct internet connection
[03:30] <astro76> aman, oh you had the wired connection with working name server but couldn't ping out
[03:30] <ironmatar> i dont know anything about dual boost setups nixNewb
[03:30] <astro76> aman, no you already have the driver
[03:30] <aman> astro76 no router is involved
[03:30] <aman> astro76 yes exactly
[03:30] <m1x> !lib
[03:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lib - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:30] <freak124> IndyGunFreak-->You can also install ubuntu with 2 partitions, so I figured you should be able to switch from 3 partitions to 2 partitions?
[03:31] <aman> astro76 i got a new idea that may be i have to install lan card driver in ubuntu
[03:31] <Sau2> ?
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> freak124: yes, you can...
[03:31] <astro76> aman, no you already have the driver
[03:31] <Sau2> ok !!
[03:31] <nixNewb> : so i select install, then i take out the cd, it then just boots to the hd, which is wondows
[03:31] <freak124> IndyGunFreak-->well, how do I do it :)
[03:31] <aman> astro76 did u get any solution
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> freak124:  probably gonna involve reinstalling to be truthful.
[03:31] <daytona89> I'm trying to install gfxboot so that grub will look more graphical. The instructions are at: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=208855&highlight=howto+grub+suse
