[02:51] <salty> ubuntuo, are you starting with a prompt like this 'Ally@<yourcomputer ~$'
[02:51] <ubuntuo> bod_ it doesnt leave capital letter its lowercase
[02:52] <RequinB4> bod_ that was me :P

[02:53] <Tucci> having trouble with my wireless - it worked fine until we put a password on the local network (which is run from an Airport/OSX) and now I can't seem to connect, but my wireless card is recognized. Can someone walk me through checking my settings?
[02:53] <bkar> RequinB4-> it does super high resolution? and 72-85 hz vertical?
[02:53] <ubuntuo> when i do df -h bod_ it shows my ipod on /dev/sda3
[02:53] <ubuntuo> "/media/My Ipod
[02:53] <salty> try 'sudo chown -Rv ally /file/in/question' ubuntuo
[02:53] <ader10> I want to convert a bunch of mp3 audio files from stereo to mono. How would I do that?
[02:54] <RequinB4> 'sudo chown -Rv ally /media/My\ Ipod' note space after the \ ubuntuo
[02:54] <mohbana> what does one have to do get the nvidia drivers workgin is this so long
[02:54] <bod_> ubuntuo,  ok type this ,.,.,. sudo chmod 777 /dev/sda3
[02:54] <bod_> !nvidia | mohbana
[02:54] <ubotu> mohbana: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:54] <salty> and ya might want to leave the '-R' out and just use the '-v' option
[02:54] <RequinB4> bkar - i'm just trying to get the horizontal/vertical rates down.  Sec i'll try those
[02:54] <ubuntuo> RequinB4 i did that, nothing happend
[02:55] <ubuntuo> i get a prompt with ">"
[02:55] <bod_> ubuntuo,  use the command i gave u
[02:55] <ubuntuo> bod_ yes
[02:55] <ubuntuo> i typed that
[02:55] <bkar> RequinB4-> your monitor says it prefers 60Hz just like a tv..may not be compatible with your video card
[02:55] <bod_> ubuntuo,  and?
[02:55] <ubuntuo> not sure if anything happend
[02:56] <ubuntuo> ipod permission is still root
[02:56] <bod_> i cant remember how to check all permissions in a dir,.,.anyone?
[02:56] <RequinB4> bkar - well, i'm trying to make it work
[02:56] <RequinB4> i need values for HorizSync and VertRefresh
[02:56] <RequinB4> it worked on window$.  (sorry for enter)
[02:56] <bod_> ubuntuo,  yer, but see if u can drop a file from shared folders,. the place u couldnt earlier
[02:56] <bkar> RequinB4-> well good luck, my attempt to use a tv lcd as monitor for pc, it did not look good or right at all
[02:57] <Teligard251> Are there any tools that would be able to pull data off Vista formatted HD's?
[02:57] <ubuntuo> i just tried that bod_ it didnt work
[02:57] <ader10> I want to convert a bunch of mp3 audio files from stereo to mono. How would I do that?
[02:57] <bkar> Teligard251-> disk dump can copy bit by bit
[02:57] <Teligard251> I'm trying to retrieve about 750GB of data
[02:57] <Teligard251> ouch
[02:57] <RequinB4> Teligard251 - Knoppix'll mount everything for you
[02:57] <un_op> Teligard251, that would be an NTFS formatted drive - ubuntu has ntfs support
[02:58] <Teligard251> ok, I'll give it a try
[02:58] <bod_> ubuntuo, i dont think were getting the correct volume,.,. use a file browser to search for a music track on your ipod,. then right click it ,.,. properties,. then tell me the exact location
[02:58] <Teligard251> It's a new rendition of NTFS though
[02:58] <salty> ubuntuo, i recently realized that if you boot your computer with the item plugged in it stays 'root'...but if you plug it in after you are all ready logged in as user than it is 'user' owned... did ya try that?
[02:58] <bkar> Teligard251-> and what do you intend to do, once you copy bit for bit, the entire 750gig ?
[02:59] <bod_> salty,  really,. cool,.,. learn something everyday
[02:59] <ubuntuo> bod_ ok here.     /media/My Ipod/iPod_Control/Music/F00
[02:59] <Tucci> I'm having trouble with my wireless, which worked just fine until very recently. Can someone help walk me through my settings? I can't figure out the problem
[02:59] <ubuntuo> salty_ really?
[02:59] <salty> all my external harddrives do that bod_
[02:59] <ubuntuo> i belive i plugged in my ipod when my computer was already boot up
[02:59] <bod_> salty,  the only external thing i own is a 2gig usb stick,.,.lol
[02:59] <salty> and ipods are harddrives to the computer
[02:59] <Teligard251> I really only want to extract certain files.  I've purchased software (digitalriver) and it's all on the Vista formatted drives.
[03:00] <bod_> ubuntuo,  unplu/replug
[03:00] <sillyputty> How much swap space should one use? If I have 1 gig RAM should I have 2 gigs of swap? And if I'm thinking of upgrading to 4 gigs of RAM should I have 8 gigs of swap?
[03:00] <ubuntuo> pl
[03:00] <bod_> sillyputty, 2 gig
[03:00] <bod_> sillyputty,  after upgrade,.,. i think its recommended to use twice the ram so yes 8gig
[03:00] <bkar> Tucci-> what have you done lately? is it your access point you're connecting to?
[03:01] <ubuntuo> ok i just plugged it back in. When i right click Properties it says owner-root still
[03:01] <ubuntuo> hmmm
[03:01] <sillyputty> bod_: seems like an awful lot of swap space
[03:01] <astro76> sillyputty: yes it is, you need no more than = your ram
[03:01] <sillyputty> bod_: on the other hand i do intend to use vmware a lot
[03:01] <un_op> ubuntuo, you cant change permissions and ownership on an Ipod, it's formatted as FAT and FAT has no understanding of such
[03:01] <bod_> sillyputty, lol,.,. yer,.,. stick with a lower one then,. its really only personal preference
[03:01] <un_op> ubuntuo, you'll just need to mount the ipod correctly
[03:01] <dru> can somebody help m? ... my sound is not working, i have tryed to install gstreamer so many times, still nothing
[03:01] <ubuntuo> stillc ant drag/drop files
[03:01] <astro76> sillyputty: and usually far less unless you want to hibernate
[03:01] <ubuntuo> un_op
[03:02] <salty> the way i solved it ubuntuo was i unplugged and rebooted...then plugged back in after i logged in
[03:02] <ubuntuo> no its not FAT
[03:02] <bod_> ubuntuo,  tlk to un_op
[03:02] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntuo: do ipods even support drag/drop?.. i didn't think they did.
[03:02] <ubuntuo> i "restored" it with my Mac
[03:02] <dru> http://img246.imageshack.us/img246/6389/screenshotiy4.png
[03:02] <sillyputty> astro76: I don't usually hibernate, but I might switch between a lot of vmware or virtual box machines
[03:02] <ubuntuo> IndyGunFreak they do... if you disable "sync"
[03:02] <jerrcs> hey guys... i am trying to boot the gutsy livecd, it stalls/freezes at "Loading Linux Kernel ... 100%"
[03:02] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntuo: ok...
[03:02] <jerrcs> any ideas?
[03:02] <un_op> ubuntuo, and you cannot really drag and drop files into the ipod_control folder, you need something like itunes or gtkpod to do that for you
[03:03] <salty> jerrcs, try the alternte install
[03:03] <ubuntuo> what is gtkpod?
[03:03] <jerrcs> mmmm, okay... thanks
[03:03] <ubuntuo> never heard of it before
[03:03] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntuo: i guess i'm confused why you just don't use Amarok, as you've had success w/ it before.
[03:03] <IndyGunFreak> !gtkpod
[03:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gtkpod - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:03] <bod_> un_op,  i tunes is the worst program ever,. it duplicates all media
[03:03] <un_op> !info gtkpod
[03:03] <IndyGunFreak> !ipod
[03:03] <ubotu> For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto See !rockbox for information on liberating your iPod
[03:03] <ubotu> gtkpod (source: gtkpod): manage songs and playlists on an Apple iPod. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.99.10-2 (gutsy), package size 695 kB, installed size 2620 kB
[03:03] <Tucci> bkar: We just changed the wireless network to use a password (it had been open)
[03:04] <salty> brb...smoke break
[03:04] <bkar> Tucci-> suits you for you for being restritive..ehhehe
[03:04] <Tucci> bkar: good point... wasn't my idea though
[03:04] <RequinB4> what is the next step down equivilent of 1440x900
[03:04] <ubuntuo> hey un_op thanks a lot i think gtkpod is what i needed!
[03:05] <ader10> I want to convert a bunch of mp3 audio files from stereo to mono. How would I do that?
[03:05] <bkar> Tucci-> just make sure you are typing the correct keys..i dont like encryption on wifi anyways..
[03:05] <un_op> ubuntuo, yw
[03:05] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntuo: i think that was suggested like 15min ago by soemone..lol, but glad you got it working
[03:06] <ubuntuo> haha thanks too IndyGunFreak :)
[03:06] <Tucci> bkar: maybe I'm dull but can you tell me where to enter the password - do I go to system-network and then click on the interface I want? That doesn't give any impression on whether it is connected or if the password is accepted
[03:06] <nemilar> ader10: that's the strangest question I've ever heard
[03:06] <nemilar> ader10: but audacity would probably do it
[03:06] <Jupp2> is there anyway to start Ubuntu in some sort of "verbose" mode to see why my pcmcia card won't let it load?
[03:06] <con-man> is it possible for me to install windows on a drive through virtual box, I just dont wanna sit and do nothing while it installs
[03:06] <jerrcs> salty: err, one issue.. i'm kind of installing this on my laptop.. and if the alternate is a text based installer, i dont really wanna do that, i want to try out stuff and make sure my stuff works before i resize my drive (dont want to touch windows really)
[03:06] <nemilar> Jupp2: have you checked the dmesg?
[03:07] <ader10> nemilar: Audacity can't do it in one batch conversion, can it?
[03:07] <ubuntuo> hmm un_op what does this mean
[03:07] <tonyyarusso> Jupp2: Yes, remove the 'quiet' parameter from grub
[03:07] <nemilar> ader10: no idea, to be honest
[03:07] <ubuntuo> when i try to open gtkpod i get this message "Could not open "iTunesDB.ext" for reading extended info.
[03:07] <ubuntuo> Extended info will not be used"
[03:07] <tonyyarusso> Jupp2: Actually, remove quiet and 'splash'
[03:07] <Jupp2> tonyyarusso, thanks!
[03:07] <nemilar> ader10: just wondering, why would you want to do that, anyway?
[03:07] <Gidean> Hi all.  I'm trying to learn the mount command in order to access my external (usb) drive...How do I check the formatting?  What (if it exists) is the cmd?
[03:07] <RequinB4> what is the next step down equivilent of 1440x900
[03:07] <un_op> ubuntuo, errm, i think you'll need a newer version of libgpod -- hold on
[03:07] <bkar> Tucci->  you are not dull, you have to select the type of encryption your AP uses, wep,wpa,wpa2 or leal..and match those to the selection on your network manager. also  some drivers do not support wpa or wpa2
[03:08] <nemilar> Gidean: 'man mount' will show you the manual for mount
[03:08] <ubuntuo> okay
[03:08] <ubuntuo> i dont think i have libgpod installed...
[03:08] <ubuntuo> let me check
[03:08] <ader10> nemilar: real life situation: You're listening to your iPod. Your friend wants to listen too. You get 2 options: bass or treble. You want both, but too bad.
[03:08] <ader10> or a cell phone
[03:08] <ader10> etc
[03:08] <nemilar> ahh, I see, I see
[03:08] <Gidean> Thanks. I know the command but I don't know what the format of the drive is...
[03:08] <ader10> :D
[03:08] <nemilar> good example
[03:08] <bkar> RequinB4-> thats futile, get a real monitor for puter not a TV converted to a monitor
[03:08] <ader10> that weas probably the easiest explanation of a reason I've given here
[03:08] <nemilar> ader10: you could get a headphone splitter ;)
[03:09] <ubuntuo> un_op libgpod2 is installed
[03:09] <ader10> I suppose I coul
[03:09] <ader10> s/coul/could/
[03:09] <RequinB4> bkar -.- it worked earlier
[03:09] <nemilar> ader10: let me see if I can figure something out
[03:09] <Tucci> bkar: I deleted the default panel with ubuntu awhile ago, and I don't think I have a "network manager" like I did, I  have a network monitor, but that isn't helping. Its not listed as something I can add to the panel, so is there another place to find it?
[03:09] <ader10> nemilar: I'm looking at the lame man page right now, hopefully it could do something
[03:09] <un_op> ubuntulog, you'll need libgpod3 --- add this line to your sources.list -  deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ipod-touch/ubuntu gutsy main
[03:10] <un_op> ubuntuo, ^^^
[03:10] <nemilar> ader10: the thing is, if you do it by re-encoding, you're going to lose quality
[03:10] <bkar> Tucci-> you probably have to add it in
[03:10] <ubuntuo> yes un_op?
[03:10] <un_op> ubuntuo, the post above was meant for you
[03:10] <Tucci> bkar: is there a way to do that without connecting to the internet (since I can't)
[03:10] <con-man> well has anyone a fix for the securom thing with wine?
[03:10] <ubuntuo> oh i see thanks
[03:10] <ubuntuo> ok let me add that
[03:11] <ubuntuo> "sudo gkedit sources.list" un_op?
[03:11] <un_op> ubuntuo, once you add that line in, you'll need to update apt/synaptic, remove gtkpod, libgpod2 and install gtkpod again
[03:11] <Gidean> i.e. is it NTFS or ext3
[03:11] <un_op> ubuntuo, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:11] <czr> anyone familiar with module-assistant here? seems that the modules that it builds have debugging info in them. any way to disable this?
[03:11] <bkar> Tucci-> try on System ->preferences-> sessions -> startup programs   and add nm-applet
[03:11] <Gidean> need a cmd
[03:12] <RequinB4> HA! It booted!
[03:12] <Tucci> bkar: k hang on
[03:12] <nemilar> Gidean: to determine what the FS of a partition is?

[03:12] <jerrcs> ok, whats the difference between normal cds and the alternate, because i really want to use the livecd but it doesnt boot
[03:12] <vbabiy_laptop> hey guys.
[03:12] <Gidean> To determine the FS of an external
[03:12] <nemilar> Gidean: fdisk -l

[03:12] <Gidean> fdisk -l
[03:12] <Gidean> gonna try..

[03:13] <nemilar> Awesome!!!

[03:13] <Tucci> bkar: hmm, it appears to have already been there, but I've readded it (the icon looks like a little bar graph, right?)
[03:14] <Gidean> Thanks nemilar!!!!
[03:14] <nemilar> Gidean: no problemo
[03:14] <kahrytan> Someone please tell me how to delete a key from kgpg? dev'ers screwed up and made it hard
[03:14] <bkar> Tucci->  maybe, some icons may look different
[03:14] <un_op> nemilar, yes, but you can label a partition as say "hpfs/ntfs" and format it as FAT .. and fdisk wouldnt know better

[03:17] <Tucci> bkar: I'm confused, as this is the same program as what I thought was "Network Monitor". In any case, it doesn't list the network I've set up in the Network Settings, only something called "lo" which I appear to be able to connect to, but can't actually get to the Internet through

[03:23] <RequinB4> Hello Kamus_H_Zwisch
[03:23] <ubuntuo> ok
[03:23] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> how to receive spams from gmail in evolution?
[03:23] <ubuntuo> how does gnome mount it?
[03:23] <nemilar> Omlette: yeah
[03:23] <ubuntuo> ok i unmounted and pluged it back no un0p
[03:24] <Daisuke_Ido> mmkay, just got back up and running with a fresh hard drive, and used to use kde on a regular basis.  is there an equivalent to kde's disks and filesystems applet? (gui tool to manage mountpoints and device fstab settings)
[03:24] <IndyGunFreak> mohbana: i really don't know, something isn't making sense.
[03:24] <un0p> ubuntuo, gnome should automount it under /media/<ipod label>
[03:24] <IndyGunFreak> mohbana: are you running nvidia-settings as root?
[03:24] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> how to receive spams from gmail in evolution?
[03:24] <IndyGunFreak> *sudo nvidia-settings
[03:24] <mohbana> IndyGunFreak yes it prompts for psswrod
[03:24] <xplozion> nemilar: any idea?
[03:24] <nemilar> Omlette: yeah, it should.  Try VLC if nothing else works out of the box
[03:24] <IndyGunFreak> mohbana: ok, i was thinking maybe thats why it wasn't letting you change.
[03:25] <nemilar> xplozion: do you have the w32codecs installed?
[03:25] <ubuntuo> yes un0p it does to /media/My Ipod
[03:25] <emma> Omlette how about VLC ?
[03:25] <xplozion> nemilar: i have w64codecs, im running amd64 distro
[03:25] <Leila>  I installed Digikam and wanted to make a slide show with music. but it said that I needed mp2enc. It is not in the repositories. It is not availabe with apt. I did install ImageMagick but that did not work. Can I fix it. Or, is there another way to make a slide show with music?
[03:25] <nemilar> xplozion: true...  you might try installing libavcodec1d
[03:25] <un0p> ubuntuo, it should be ready for use with gtkpod now
[03:25] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> how to receive spams from gmail in evolution?
[03:25] <emma> Omlette,  VLC -- http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
[03:26] <nemilar> emma: vlc is in repos
[03:26] <nemilar> VLC > *
[03:26] <xplozion> nemilar: already have it installed
[03:26] <ubuntuo> un0p i just tried again, i get the same thing.... as before
[03:26] <ubuntuo> that weird error message
[03:26] <IndyGunFreak> Kamus_H_Zwisch: go tot he gmail website, and set your options to not filter spam into the spam folder, and you should receive it...
[03:26] <nemilar> xplozion: have you tried multiple files?
[03:26] <un0p> ubuntuo, i think you can ignore the "extended info" error the first time (it's normal) .. you shouldnt see it again
[03:26] <nemilar> xplozion: or tried to play it in VLC?
[03:26] <mohbana> IndyGunFreak i used envy by the way
[03:26] <nickrud> Leila: it's in mjpegtools

[03:26] <IndyGunFreak> mohbana: well, thats a bad idea, but pointless at this point.
[03:26] <nemilar> Who would /want/ spam ?
[03:26] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> thanks IndyGunFreak
[03:27] <mohbana> IndyGunFreak i couldnt get it to work without it
[03:27] <ubuntuo> "Extended info will not be used.
[03:27] <ubuntuo> Error reading iPod photo database (Photos directory not found: '/media/My Ipod/iPod_Control/Photos' (or similar).)."
[03:27] <kahrytan> Someone please tell me how to delete a key from kgpg? dev'ers screwed up and made it hard
[03:27] <IndyGunFreak> nemilar: well, he does for some reason.
[03:27] <nemilar> IndyGunFreak: shudder
[03:27] <IndyGunFreak> mohbana: well, from the sounds of it, its not working with it...
[03:27] <ardchoille> nemilar: Sometimes gmail filters legitimate emails into the spam folder by accident
[03:27] <nickrud> ubuntuo: if you don't have photos, that's no problem
[03:27] <IndyGunFreak> problem is, once you bork your system w/ that Envy mess, its hard to get right again
[03:27] <nemilar> ardchoille: yeah, but that's no reason to have it not filter any spa
[03:27] <ubuntuo> "Transfer of ' Medicine (Radio Edit)' failed. Error opening '/media/My Ipod/iPod_Control/Music/F01/gtkpod272348.mp3' for writing (Read-only file system)."
[03:28] <ubuntuo> i get that error when i try to copy music to my Ipod with gtkpod
[03:28] <nemilar> ubuntuo: I sure hope you _paid_ for those mp3s
[03:28] <un0p> ubuntuo, errm, did you say you formatted the ipod on a mac?
[03:28] <ubuntuo> yes i did
[03:28] <ubuntuo> is that a problem?
[03:28] <ubuntuo> of course i paid for those mp3s :) 99 cents each
[03:29] <Crust> lol
[03:29] <xplozion> nemilar: it does play on VLC with sound
[03:29] <un0p> ubuntuo, errm iirc you'll need read/write access to the mac partition -- and i'm a little unsure on that
[03:29] <nemilar> ubuntuo: then they'd be mp4's, not mp3's  ;) ;)
[03:29] <Crust> hmmm
[03:29] <ubuntuo> :) mewilar that will be our secret
[03:29] <ubuntuo> ok well thanks anyways un0p
[03:29] <nemilar> lol
[03:30] <un0p> ubuntuo, what device is the ipod ? /dev/sdXX ?
[03:30] <ubuntuo> sda3
[03:30] <Leila> Thank you much. You don't know how hard it was to find that. mjpegtools.

[03:30] <xplozion> nemilar: yeah i know.... hmmmmm
[03:30]  * IndyGunFreak says if he'd ahve had this much trouble w/ his Ipod, he'd sell it and get a Zune.. :)
[03:30] <un0p> ubuntuo, what does this command output?  file -s /dev/sda3
[03:30] <ubuntuo> un0p /dev/sda3
[03:30] <ubuntuo> in terminal?
[03:30] <nickrud> Leila: install apt-file , it downloads a database of the files and packages, you can search for things with that

[03:31]  * IndyGunFreak doesn't care what RequinB4 says
[03:32] <Leila> Apt-file what a great thing, Many thanks.
[03:32]  * nemilar says Ubuntu would be awesome, if not for all the bugs
[03:32] <nemilar> But hey, it's not like I paid for it!
[03:32]  * nickrud laughs at IndyGunFreak and RequinB4
[03:32]  * RequinB4 didn't say anything
[03:32]  * IndyGunFreak doesn't care what RequinB4 thinks..
[03:32] <Dr_willis> I can get Mplayer to play videos.. smplayer wont play diddle!
[03:32] <Dr_willis> :P
[03:32]  * un0p contemplates ignoring people :)
[03:32] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[03:32] <IndyGunFreak> Dr_willis: smplayer?.. hadn't heard of that one.
[03:32] <Dr_willis> !info smplayer
[03:32] <ubotu> smplayer (source: smplayer): complete front-end for MPlayer. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 0.5.20-0ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 816 kB, installed size 2252 kB
[03:32] <Leila> Your name is in yellow. are u an administrator?
[03:33] <ubuntuo> un0p any ideas?
[03:33] <Tucci> bkar: I'm pretty sure that's what Im looking at (not sure where to find the version number tho). It just isn't seeing the network I specified in Network Settings.
[03:33] <Dr_willis> a mplayer front end.. that for some reason wont play. heh
[03:33] <un0p> ubuntuo, gimme a minute
[03:33]  * aragorn is listening to Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon
[03:33] <rne1224> when is hardy coming out?
[03:33] <ubuntuo> sure thanks un0p
[03:33] <IndyGunFreak> Dr_willis: hmm, no clue on taht one.
[03:34] <nickrud> rne1224: april or so
[03:34] <nemilar> Hardy is slated for 8.04 right?
[03:34] <Starnestommy> yes
[03:34] <IndyGunFreak> rne1224: Hardy 8.04.. so its due in April 08(4th month, 08yr)
[03:34] <bod_> yer
[03:34] <Jakoo> someone can tell me how to kill a process?
[03:34] <nemilar> mannnnnn that's going to be so much fun, not using my computer for a day while it downloads and installs 350 packages
[03:34] <nickrud> Jakoo: pkill <processname>
[03:34] <Jakoo> thankyou
[03:34] <bod_> nickrud,  why pkill?
[03:34] <IndyGunFreak> Jakoo: i always use system monitor, but you can use pkill, i just like GUI's for things
[03:34] <nickrud> nemilar: do it at night
[03:35] <nickrud> bod_: someone who's smarter than I suggested it
[03:35] <bod_> nickrud, why not kill? any idea wot the p does?
[03:35] <devlin_> i was wondering if anyone could help me to install a package from source
[03:35] <Kuroachia> Does anyone know why my desktop icons don't show up on my desktop?  Welcome!
[03:37] <Jakoo> so pkill or just kill?
[03:37] <mohbana> thanks ive got it working now ... by pure luck
[03:37] <nemilar> and killall only does process names
[03:37] <bod_> Jakoo, pkill
[03:37] <Jakoo> ok
[03:37] <stephan> with the 64bit ubuntu will i have issues with wine or can i just install as normal in add/remove programs?
[03:37] <bod_> nemilar,  i use killall,.,. thanks for clearing up what they do
[03:37] <Jakoo> it means process kill i suppose :)
[03:37] <IndyGunFreak> mohbana: now you just have to worry about envy wrecking something
[03:37] <nickrud> Kuroachia: try   killall nautilus   in a terminal, if that doesn't work try   gconf-editor /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop make sure it's enabled
[03:38] <ubuntuo> un0p: mount: mount point /media/ipod does not exist
[03:38] <ubuntuo> thats the error i get
[03:38] <mohbana> IndyGunFreak, why do you say that?
[03:38] <devlin_> im trying to install hotspotter-0.4 and i already extracted it, changed directory to where the folder was located and tried to run ./configure and it returned and error
[03:38] <ubuntuo> i think the mount is /media/My Ipod
[03:38] <nemilar> bod_: yeah I typically use killall, unless there's more than one instance of a process running, and I only want to kill one (for example, "killall bash" would be a bad idea)
[03:38] <IndyGunFreak> mohbana: Envy has hosed more than one system, thats why it isn't supported
[03:38] <Dr_willis> ubuntuo,  make the mountpoint then..  Once you install that everything should be relatively easy
[03:38] <un0p> ubuntuo, sorry -  sudo sh -c "umount /dev/sda3; mkdir /media/ipod; mount -t hfs /dev/sda3 /media/ipod -o rw"
[03:38] <bod_> nemilar, lol,. yer dont do that,.,.lol
[03:39]  * Dr_willis wants to slap whoever at MS decided to use 'My Whatever' for names
[03:39] <stephan> ader10: thank you, im gonna give the 64bit a shot
[03:39] <ader10> stephan: there are howtos for installing 64 bit applications if you can't figure it out yourself
[03:39] <Jakoo> oh ok ;)
[03:39] <devlin_> it returns "./configure: No suck file or directory"
[03:39] <nemilar> nickrud: but pkill will send the signal to all patching processes, which might not be good
[03:39] <mohbana> ive been running 640 for running 3hrs i am suddenly on 1680 this seems so weird
[03:39] <nemilar> nickrud: matching*
[03:39] <Jakoo> to get the process number is ps -e?
[03:39] <bod_> un0p, i think he's saying its /media/My Ipod    not   /media/ipod
[03:39] <ader10> stephan: install it on a different partition than your 32 bit so you have something to fall back to if it doesn't work the way you like it
[03:40] <un0p> bod_, i'm intentionally using /media/ipod
[03:40] <un0p> bod_, i hate dealing with spaces
[03:40] <nickrud> nemilar: a pertinent point
[03:40] <ubuntuo> un0p
[03:40] <nemilar> spaces are the character of the devil!
[03:40] <ubuntuo> i give up
[03:40] <ubuntuo> nothing is working...
[03:40] <ubuntuo> sigh*
[03:40] <un0p> ubuntuo, what happened?
[03:40] <bod_> un0p, ok, but if he uses ur command, it wont work,.,. spaces r fine,. just use quotes ,.,. eg ,.,. /media/"My Ipod"
[03:40] <ubuntuo> same as before
[03:40] <ubuntuo> just a blank screen with ">"
[03:40] <nemilar> bod_: better would be /media/My\ Ipod
[03:40] <nickrud> bod_: you mean "/media/My Ipod"
[03:41] <nemilar> or "/media/My Ipod"
[03:41] <mohbana> hi guys are there any tutorials for installing eclipse, azureus, java.  something official would be good i dont mind community docs aswell
[03:41] <nemilar> mohbana: those are all in repos
[03:41] <rsk> mohbana: all can be installed via the synaptic meny
[03:41] <un0p> ubuntuo, make sure you copied that command down right
[03:41] <CalvinH> The latest ubuntu kernel release (2.6.22-14.47) causes nfs4 to fail (kernel exception/lock up)
[03:41] <wookie> HELLO EVERYBODY!!!!
[03:41] <bod_> nickrud,  i thought /media/"My Ipod"     worked,.,. nemilar, why is the backslash way better?
[03:41] <CalvinH> how do i find if the issue has already been reported?
[03:41] <bod_> wookie, HELLO!!!!!!
[03:41] <ubuntuo> i ddi
[03:41] <nickrud> mohbana: download eclipse,  extract it to /opt , then   sudo ln -s /opt/eclipse/eclipse  /usr/bin/eclipse
[03:41] <stephan> is the "quiet" flag necessary to install ubuntu? not sure of its main function
[03:41] <cheddarcheese> lol wookie
[03:41] <ubuntuo> did
[03:41] <un0p> bod_, why wont it work? the ipod can be mounted anywhere
[03:41] <RequinB4> Hello wookie, please no caps, some people consider it shouting :P
[03:42] <Jakoo> just a question is it possible to get a full list of commands somewhere?
[03:42] <cheddarcheese> brook u here?
[03:42] <nemilar> bod_: it's not better, I just like to say it is, because quotes are also the character of the devil.
[03:42] <HAMmy> o_o
[03:42] <rsk> CalvinH: search  in launchpad
[03:42] <CalvinH> cheers
[03:42] <bod_> nemilar, lol,.,. ok
[03:42] <wookie> i was kinda shouting though
[03:42] <nemilar> bod_: but /media/"My Ipod" is wrong; it's "/media/My Ipod"
[03:42]  * cheddarcheese feels out of place
[03:42] <drgeb> when em28xxx startup it is unable to load em28xxx_audio properly anyone know how to fix this ? "em28xx_audio: disagrees about version of symbol snd_pcm_new"
[03:42] <wookie> but in a good way
[03:42] <bod_> un0p,  because the name of the ipod isnt ipod its My Ipod
[03:42] <un0p> nemilar, they both should work
[03:42] <bod_> nemilar,  ok cheers,.,. wasnt to sure
[03:42] <Dr_willis> Jakoo,   you have all the commands in your 'path' and proberly dozens of others tha are not in the default path. I suggest reading some basic bash tutorials/guides for starters
[03:42] <Jakoo> i am trying to learn the commands and everytime i have to ask for one
[03:42] <julio> Hello folks! Hot to download books from Google Books? Some tuto?
[03:43] <Dr_willis> Jakoo,  open up a terminaland hit tab a few times. It will complete all the names.
[03:43] <un0p> bod_, ok, and?  the label of the filesystem has little bearing on how one mounts it or where he mounts it
[03:43] <julio> *Any tuto?
[03:43] <Dr_willis> !bash Jakoo
[03:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bash jakoo - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:43] <nemilar> julio: you can't download books from google books
[03:43] <Dr_willis> !bash | Jakoo
[03:43] <ubotu> Jakoo: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[03:43] <bod_> un0p,  ok,. i thought u were trying to mount something called ipod
[03:43] <nemilar> julio: you can search them..if you want to download books, use Project Gutenberg
[03:43] <RequinB4> julio - google books only has a few pages....
[03:43] <nickrud> Jakoo: that's no problem, you'll reach critical mass soon
[03:43] <Jakoo> ok thank you very much ;)
[03:43] <un0p> bod_, i was mounting an ipod at /media/ipod
[03:44] <bod_> un0p, oh,ok,,.,.my bad,.,.sorry
[03:44] <nemilar> RequinB4: google books has the whole thing, they just don't let you see it all.  You can get around it by searching for words and reading a page at a time, but that's....annoying?  It's really useful when you're writing a report, though, or something like that.
[03:44] <b4taylor> Is there a ubuntu support chan?
[03:44] <b4taylor> an**
[03:44] <un0p> bod_, it doesnt matter anyway, he's gone - left in an exasperated state :(
[03:44] <julio> nemilar, Tankyou man! I find this book: http://books.google.com/books?id=M66WOfYoULYC&pg=PA214&lpg=PA214&dq=putting+a+trash+icon+on+gnome+desktop&source=web&ots=aThWrLWA0k&sig=O3O6gmukDuumbw2Inptl_T11FFc#PPP1,M1
[03:44] <nemilar> this is it
[03:44] <bod_> Jakoo, if u no the name of a command and want to no more about it use man ,.,. eg      man killall
[03:44] <b4taylor> Ah, ok.
[03:44] <RequinB4> nemilar - did not know that
[03:44] <b4taylor> Problem is probably simple.
[03:44] <bod_> un0p, lol,. he's been trying to change permissions on that thing for about an hour
[03:45] <Jakoo> oki
[03:45] <cxixer> anyone using emc on ubuntu?
[03:45] <cheddarcheese> wookieeee
[03:45] <wookie> go
[03:45] <wookie> go
[03:45] <cheddarcheese> u go first
[03:45] <wookie> no
[03:45] <CalvinH> frick, looks like no one has listed any nfs bugs for the kernel
[03:45] <neeto> Sometimes if I leave a program running for a while, like firefox or pidgin, and I come back to it, I won't be able to type in the window. Does anyone have this problem or know how to fix it?
[03:45] <wookie> you go
[03:45] <bod_> Jakoo, go into a terminal and press the tab button twice (without typing anything)
[03:45] <un0p> bod_, well, its because he's got a macpod formatted as hfs, and by default hfs volumes are mounted read-only -- i was trying to get him to mount it read-write but ...
[03:45] <CalvinH> could someone help me write a decent bug report?
[03:45] <b4taylor> So my window decorator shows absulutely huge (possibly max size) text. So does GDM. Turning off the compiz additions fixes it.
[03:45] <wookie> JUST GO
[03:45] <cheddarcheese> no, you
[03:45] <wookie> DANGIT
[03:45] <nemilar> RequinB4: offtopic, but it's a life-saver for college papers; skip the library, just use google books to get a quote and add it to your bibliography
[03:45] <cheddarcheese> heeee
[03:45] <wookie> GOOOOOOOO
[03:46] <CalvinH> (I've verified the bug in a VM)
[03:46] <b4taylor> And I'm fine with turning it off, it's on a laptop.
[03:46] <cheddarcheese> OKKKK
[03:46] <nickrud> wookie: please don't
[03:46] <Jakoo> ok
[03:46] <Jakoo> ok
[03:46] <bod_> un0p, ive never heard of a hfs type,.,. maybe cause im not an appler,.,.lol
[03:46] <b4taylor> But GDM is still borked.
[03:46] <Teligard251> How do I remove PAE support from the Ubuntu 7.10 source code )or does someone have an edited version of the source code)?
[03:46] <RequinB4> nemilar - on-topic - firefox has a great download manager
[03:46] <cheddarcheese> HEH
[03:46] <cheddarcheese> =/
[03:46] <wookie> HEY HAMMY
[03:46] <RequinB4> that takes any link or file you can find on the internet
[03:46] <b4taylor> So how do I fix my huge fonts in GDM?
[03:46] <cheddarcheese> omg
[03:46] <nemilar> Gotta love those download managers.
[03:46] <HAMmy> hi wookie
[03:46] <cxixer> im trying to install ubuntu with emc using the EMC2 Live CD (www.linuxcnc.org), and it always gets to 82% then freezes, anyone know how to fix this?
[03:47] <wookie> I THOUGHT YOU WERE GOING TO JOIN US WITH THIS
[03:47] <cheddarcheese> nah im chicken
[03:47] <Jakoo> lol 2022 possibilities
[03:47] <bod_> wookie, no need to shout,. we can hear u
[03:47] <cheddarcheese> *wookie's gonna get kicked*
[03:47] <nemilar> that sounds like an awesome chant
[03:47] <HAMmy> lol
[03:47] <CalvinH> no one can helpme write a linux kernel bug report?
[03:47] <Jakoo> ill get a tablet before read them all
[03:47] <mohbana> ok now my sound has died
[03:47] <bthornton> On a Ubuntu system partitioned with LVM2: if a PV contains an entire LV, is it possible to remove that PV from one VG and then insert it into a VG on another computer and see the LV that it contains?
[03:47] <nemilar> CalvinH: have you searched the already-posted bugs?
[03:48] <CalvinH> no matches for "nfs"
[03:48] <b4taylor> How are there no matches for nfs?
[03:48] <nemilar> erm...
[03:48] <CalvinH> its only a bug for the latest release
[03:48] <bod_> Jakoo, lol,.,. so cool
[03:48] <Tucci> bkar u still there? I got a step closer, as Network Manager can now see the correct network, but I can't seem to connect even though I'm putting in the right password. any clues?
[03:48] <CalvinH> although quite a major one
[03:48]  * HAMmy points to the door and asks her peeps to join her
[03:48] <nemilar> CalvinH: what's the problem?
[03:48] <HAMmy> follow me guyz
[03:48] <CalvinH> latest kernel causes an "Kernel Oops" with nfs4
[03:48] <CalvinH> worked before the upgrade
[03:48] <nemilar> darn kernels
[03:49] <CalvinH> I installed a new system on a virtual machine, got it working with nfs4
[03:49] <CalvinH> then upgraded to the latest ubuntu kernel release
[03:49] <CalvinH> "boom"
[03:49] <bod_> will hardy be available as a 64bit release?
[03:49] <nemilar> bod_: I would imagine so
[03:49] <bthornton> CalvinH: This is a known problem with the latest kernel. You'd have to force the version back to the previous verison.
[03:50] <Tucci> can anyone help with my wireless? We've put a password on the home network, and now I can't seem to connect even though I'm putting the password in correctly. Anyone have any idea why that might happen?
[03:50] <mohbana> can someone help please some sound no longer works
[03:50] <bod_> nemilar, will that be out from the beginning or will we have to wait longer for a 64?
[03:50] <CalvinH> bthornton:  known problem? Do you have a link?
[03:50] <nemilar> bod_: not sure, but I think they normally release at the same time
[03:50] <bod_> nemilar, cool,.,.cheers
[03:50] <bod_> Tucci, dunno,.,. encryption messed me around aswell
[03:51] <bthornton> CalvinH: I did at one point (it is a submitted bug), but I don't at the moment.  You can Google part of the kernel panic output and probably pull it up.
[03:51] <bod_> mohbana, try rebooting
[03:51] <neeto> how does one change the mac address for say, eth0?
[03:51] <CalvinH> I'll give it a try. Never tryed to regress a kernel, is it hard?
[03:51] <bod_> does anyone no anything about DMA timeout errors?
[03:51] <onesojourner> Would some one mind packaging a file for me?
[03:51] <un0p> neeto, adjust that interface's entry in /etc/iftab or use ethtool
[03:51] <b4taylor> How about fixing extremely large text in GDM? Anyone?
[03:51] <neeto> un0p: thanks
[03:52] <jeremysan> hi all.  im having a sound problem and i dont know the name of my sound card(s).  can somebody tell me how to figure out what sound card i have?
[03:52] <IndyGunFreak> jeremysan: open a terminal, lspci
[03:52] <bod_> jeremysan, terminal type    lspci
[03:52] <Tucci> bod: yeah, I thought so - can you tell me what is supposed to happen if I put in the wrong password? Cuz right now it just accepts it and then doesn't do anything
[03:53] <bthornton> CalvinH: If you're running Gutsy, you want to force kernel version 2.6.22-14.46 .  The latest version (2.6.22-14.47) is the one with that problem.
[03:53] <bod_> Tucci, dunno m8,.,. i ditched encryption,
[03:53] <CalvinH> bthornton: cheers
[03:53] <cxixer> im trying to install ubuntu with emc using the EMC2 Live CD (www.linuxcnc.org), and it always gets to 82% then freezes, anyone know how to fix this?
[03:53] <jimmygoon> How do I mount an iso file in ubuntu?
[03:53] <b4taylor> Oh yeah, running Gutsy, fully updated.
[03:54] <CalvinH> I can't tell you how much of a headache i've been having. took me a while to notice the syslog (I'm new to linux)
[03:54] <IndyGunFreak> jeremysan: so what model is the sound device?
[03:54] <boinker_> printer cannot communicate in a virtual windows machine in virtual box...even with usb installed and printers drivers printer cannot commuincate can anyone help
[03:54] <KingD> hello I by accident deleted my  main panel how can I get it back?
[03:54] <b4taylor> mount -o loop /path/to/iso /path/to/mnt/point
[03:54] <jimmygoon> !iso
[03:54] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[03:54] <jeremysan> well im trying to figure that out right now
[03:54] <jeremysan> because my problem is that i have 2 sound cards
[03:54] <jeremysan> i know that my integrated one works with Ubuntu, but my PCI one does not work with ubuntu.
[03:54] <mohbana> how do i share a /home partion between different distros?

[03:54] <jeremysan> ok
[03:55] <IndyGunFreak> mohbana: you have to do that while you're installing Ubuntu, by setting a different partition for home.
[03:55] <e^ipi> anyone know if the core2 macbooks' wireless is supported by madwifi ? ( the pre-broadcomm wireless-N cards )
[03:55] <mohbana> IndyGunFreak, so its to late to do it now?
[03:55] <IndyGunFreak> mohbana: most likely
[03:55] <onesojourner> Could some one on here package a file for me?
[03:55] <goldsniper> hi all
[03:55] <bod_> mohbana, no i think u can set up another partition,.,. but i dont no how
[03:56] <JavaGeek> hello
[03:56] <bod_> hi
[03:56] <goldsniper> please enlighten me : i get this error when i tried to do update
[03:56] <IndyGunFreak> bod_: he can setup another partition, but he'd havfe t modify his current OS, he *might* be able to do it, but it would be tricky
[03:56] <KingD> Did I ruin my OS I deleted my main panel to navigate... How do I get it back?
[03:56] <JavaGeek> is there any channel to discuss hardy issues?

[03:58] <jeremysan> bod_ , here is my pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53627/
[03:59] <IndyGunFreak> KingD_: there's a way to fix that, just can't remember how.
[03:59] <bod_> jeremysan, if u want to use the intergrated one,.,. why not just remove the other soundcard?
[03:59] <un0p> goldsniper, make sure you dont have anything else like synaptic or aptitude open and try again
[03:59] <danbhfive> anyone know what ^C on the terminal means?
[03:59] <un0p> danbhfive, control+c
[03:59] <IndyGunFreak> KingD_:  wait, are we talkiing about the panel(where your applications/places/system menu is), or your GDM(login screen)
[03:59] <bod_> danbhfive, means uve pressed one of the arrow keys
[03:59] <jeremysan> bod_ I bought this sound card to work with windows, I am running a dual boot on this computer, so I don't want to get rid of that PCI sound card because then I wouldn't have it for windows
[04:00] <KingD> the main way of navigating the bar on top of the screen I deleted it
[04:00] <iCEifer> anyone know why I keep getting an error "Buffer I/O error on device sda, logical block 0" when booting the live cd? I have two hard drives and if I take the larger one out and boot it runs fine and the Windows CD boots okay with both drives & installs?
[04:00] <danbhfive> un0p: bod_: do either of you know where I could get a listing of such sequences?
[04:00] <bod_> jeremysan, ok,. u need to tell alsa which card to use,.,. i cant remember how to do that,. hang on let me google
[04:00] <IndyGunFreak> KingD_: so where your clock was, etc, right?
[04:00] <dthacker> Hi, I was attempting to add an additional hard drive, but now I'm unable to boot of the original.  I'm getting Grub Error 2.   I've booted of the live CD, and I can see the drive.   What do I need to check next?
[04:00] <KingD> yes exactly
[04:00] <un0p> danbhfive, errm, what for? i mean for what purpose?
[04:01] <jeremysan> bod_ alright.  The PCI card I have is he Creative Labs SB X-Fi, which on ALSA is not compatible
[04:01] <jeremysan> the *
[04:01] <bod_> jeremysan, yer give me a sec
[04:01] <danbhfive> un0p: a project I'm working on, I can link it if you like
[04:02] <Dr_willis> The order/#@ of the drives may of changed dthacker  You will need to edit the grub menu.lst and reinstall grub to the new hd - it may of jumped ahead of the others in the 'order'

[04:02] <IndyGunFreak> KingD_: opena  terminal, and type "gnome-panel" no quotes..  see what that does
[04:02] <Dr_willis> dthacker,  or perhaps swap the location of the 2 hds on the ide cables. :)
[04:03] <bod_> Guys,. if i have two sound cards,. how do i tell alsa which one to use?
[04:03] <adub> does anyone in here have a brother mutifunction printer
[04:03] <KingD> I can't get in terminal
[04:03] <ArthurArchnix> Hi. I've tried the following music players, but I haven't felt like I've found the best one for me yet. RythmBox (of course), but the simplicity of it annoys me. I need access to more settings. Amarok (my current favorite), but as I use gnome and a media player every day I want something that doesn't rely on loading the kde libraries just to play music, Exhaile (what I currently use). I've heard of listen, xmms, but I wonder if any
[04:03] <KingD> that is gone
[04:03] <adub> i have looked online im having slight problem getting the scanning feature to work
[04:03] <BetaTest> When I try to install a program it says, "Please install the "i386" version of this program instead." but isn't i386 for Windows?
[04:03] <IndyGunFreak> KingD:  hang on a sec.
[04:03] <b4taylor> ArthurArchnix: Amarok for Gnome would be quite killer.
[04:03] <un0p> danbhfive, usually they represent one of the control codes -- ascii codes 0 - 32 ..  http://www.unix-manuals.com/refs/misc/ascii-table.html
[04:03] <rsk> BetaTest: i386 isn't windows specific no.
[04:03] <KingD> I think I might have it
[04:04] <un0p> bod_, you can use alsaconf to help you
[04:04] <Dr_willis> BetaTest,  i386 is a saying  the  kind of cpu
[04:04] <dthacker> Dr_willis: I have removed the other drive, and returned the other drive back to it's original position.
[04:05] <BetaTest> Ah, thank you Dr_willis
[04:05] <bod_> jeremysan, ok,.,. right click on the picture of a speaker in the top right hand side of ur screen,.,. select open sound cntrol,.,. then a screen comes up,.,. click file--> change device and select the intergrated one
[04:05] <danbhfive> un0p: cool, thanks, I may be able to use that
[04:05] <KingD> I am figuring it out
[04:05] <IndyGunFreak> KingD:  try this, right cilck your desktop, choose create launcher, Type: Application in Terminal, then Name(whatever), command: gnome-panel
[04:05] <bod_> un0p,  whats the command for it?
[04:05] <IndyGunFreak> hten double click the icon on your desktop
[04:05] <un0p> bod_, alsaconf  (you might need to install the package by the same name)
[04:06] <bod_> un0p,  ok il try
[04:06] <KingD> I clicked on the bottom panel and clicked add new panel then add the things I need to it
[04:06] <bod_> un0p,  : E: Couldn't find package alsaconf
[04:06] <jeremysan> bod_ wait, when i Open Volume Control, a window pops up that says "No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found.
[04:06] <foxray> what is the difference between the nvidia-glx and nvidia-glx-new packages in synaptic?
[04:06] <ArthurArchnix> b4taylor: Well, that's what exhaile is... a rewrite of amarok but using python and gtk. But it is still new and I feel its a bit resource intensive for what I'm currently asking of it.
[04:07] <ZarfPunit> the ubuntu model for sparcs? where to? can anyone help?
[04:07] <goldsnipe1> un0p: i reboot and now i can update!!!! thanks anyway
[04:07] <Dr_willis> dthacker,  you may want to boot a live cd. and  use a command similer to grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/root /dev/hda --recheck   Im reading this from 00>   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[04:07] <bod_> jeremysan, ok,. its not detecting ANY cards,.,. damn,.,. type     alsamixer in a terminal,.,. what happens?
[04:07] <IndyGunFreak> kingd:  well duh, i thought you siad you deleted both panels
[04:07] <jeremysan> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[04:07] <bod_> un0p,  apt-get   cant find alsaconf
[04:07] <goldsnipe1> is there any ways do do system restore like in windows?
[04:07] <techgeek40> Where would I find drivers for my onboard audio card (it's a ALC888
[04:07] <Dr_willis> goldsnipe1,  not really.
[04:07] <KingD> No I deleted the main one and scared myself half to death
[04:07] <jeremysan> bod_   alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[04:07] <IndyGunFreak> kingD:  if you have your bottom just right click it, new panel, and move that panel to the top, then add things you wan tto it.
[04:08] <IndyGunFreak> techgeek40: what audio card is it?
[04:08] <nemilar> ZarfPunit: I don't think Ubuntu releases for Sparc
[04:08] <Fernieite> hi
[04:08] <dthacker> Dr_willis: will the ubuntu live CD work? I'm booted on that now.
[04:08] <Dr_willis> goldsnipe1,  theres proberly tools that can do a similer thing. but ivbe never needed them
[04:08] <un0p> bod_, interesting, doesnt seem to exist in any ubuntu distribution - but exists in debian
[04:08] <bod_> jeremysan,  have u ever had sound in ubuntu?
[04:08] <Fernieite> hi
[04:08] <Dr_willis> dthacker,  should
[04:08] <techgeek40> Indy: I believe it's the realtek HD audio
[04:08] <b4taylor> ArthurArchnix: Yeah, I don't believe my music player should eat up my CPU.
[04:08] <Dr_willis> dthacker,  it pays to read up on all the ins and outs of grub. :)
[04:08] <KingD> I was trying to get my kiba dock working
[04:09] <goldsnipe1> Dr_willis, i just reinstalled ubuntu for the third time
[04:09] <KingD> I just installed it but I don't see it yet
[04:09] <nemilar> ZarfPunit: oh yeah they do, my bad
[04:09] <bod_> un0p,  jeremysan has a prob,.,. he has a motherboard sound card and a different one,.,. lspci finds both,.,. but alsa doesnt recognize either,,.,. any thoughs?
[04:09] <jeremysan> bod_ yes, as you suggested, (and I have already tried this in before) when I physically uninstall my PCI sound card, and then turn on my computer in Ubuntu, sound works, which means that my other sound card (integrated) does work.
[04:09] <IndyGunFreak> techgeek40: well, open a terminal and see what the output of lspci is(it should identify your sound card there), and tell me how it identifies it.
[04:09] <nemilar> bod_ jeremysan I had a similar problem, ALSA got confused when I had two soundcards installed
[04:09] <goldsnipe1> Dr_Wiliis: 1st - i cant log on X, 2nd -lost my sound, 3rd - you dont want to know
[04:10] <bod_> nemilar,  did u get a fix?
[04:10] <jeremysan> nemilar how did you solve your problem
[04:10] <regeya> jeremysan: just a hunch, but unless you want both to work, try disabling the internal sound in bios settings
[04:10] <ArthurArchnix> b4taylor: Have any experience with audacious?

[04:10] <nemilar> bod_ jeremysan I disabled onboard sound ;)
[04:10] <cre8torx> what's everyones faviort manager

[04:10] <jeremysan> bod_ well i want to disable my PCI sound because it is incompatible
[04:10] <b4taylor> ArthurArchnix: Yup. It's light and all. But not very good with library stuff.
[04:11] <jeremysan> oops wrong person*
[04:11] <bod_> un0p,  alsactl ???    it needs a parameter?
[04:11] <Dr_willis> goldsnipe1,  you muse be very good at totally wrecking things then. :)  its better to learn tofix then just resort to the windows-mindset of reisntalling
[04:11] <techgeek40> IndyGunFreak: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53628/
[04:11] <b4taylor> ArthurArchnix: And I found it didn't blend into the rest of my desktop as nicely.
[04:11] <jeremysan> nemilar i want to disable my PCI card.  how do i do that
[04:11] <nemilar> jeremysan: why not just take it out?
[04:11] <bod_> nemilar,  how would i disable a pci card, but leave the intergrated one working?
[04:11] <nemilar> remove it :)
[04:11] <bod_> nemilar, no can dio,.,. needs to be there for windows to use
[04:11] <jeremysan> nemilar because this computer has a dual boot and i need that sound card for windows.  I dont want to have to physically install and uninstall every time i want to load a different operating system
[04:12] <nemilar> lol ok good point
[04:12] <IndyGunFreak> techgeek40: hmm, i know the Intel HDA devices, are a pain in the rump w/ Linux and Ubuntu, but you can get them working.
[04:12] <nemilar> not sure, then
[04:12] <IndyGunFreak> try googling your audio device, and "ubuntu 7.10 help" or something like that
[04:12] <ArthurArchnix> b4taylor: Hmm... I'm reading about it online. From the screenshots I can see what you mean.

[04:18] <bod_> Arbitrary, without removing it,.,. i need it in there
[04:18] <david__> excuse me im trying to run a program called dbDesigner but its complaining about not finding libpthread library
[04:18] <Arbitrary> ha ha, then why disable it?
[04:18] <onesojourner> can some one package a file for me>
[04:18] <bod_> Arbitrary, need for windows ,.,. does not work woth alsa
[04:18] <un0p> bod_, afaik, i dont think you can -- unless you blacklist it's driver/module -- the better way to go about it is configure alsa to use a default card
[04:19] <bod_> un0p,  how do i configure alsa to do that?
[04:19] <un0p> bod_, alsactl
[04:19] <Arbitrary> ok, alias its device name to /dev/null?
[04:19] <dthacker> OK, I'm confused.  The system utilities on the Live CD see the hard drive.  The docs say I should get a list of partitions when I start grub and type root, then TAB complete.  I'm not getting anything.
[04:19] <^BiplanO^> david__, I had a problem with that library too
[04:19] <bod_> un0p, alsactl   needs a parameter,.,. that command on its own does nothing
[04:19] <Dr_willis> dthacker,  run 'grub' then in the grub shell use   grub> find /boot/grub/stage1   to see wher it finds stage1 at
[04:19] <un0p> bod_, man alsactl then
[04:19] <bod_> un0p,  what parameter do i give it?

[04:21] <un0p> bod_, you didnt read my post about disabling cards eh? you cant
[04:21] <un0p> bod_, check this - http://seehuhn.de/pages/alsa
[04:21] <emma> I think you can get grub back through the live cd
[04:22] <bod_> un0p,  ok ,.,. i also cant find anything about setting a default
[04:22] <Jakoo> someone can explain me how to import an outlook address book in evolution?
[04:22] <glick> is that a tricky library to install?
[04:23] <bod_> unp thanks for help
[04:23] <bod_> jeremysan, you still here m8?
[04:23] <LurkersA> Hi all. I am using the ClamTk frontend to clamav from the repos, but when I click update definations it just tells me it can't get updates. Does anyone know anything about this?
[04:23] <jeremysan> bod_ i sure am
[04:23] <dthacker> Dr_willis: I have 3 partitions: One was root, a tmp, and a swap
[04:23] <bod_> jeremysan,  look at this ,.,. the setting default bit : http://seehuhn.de/pages/alsa
[04:23] <Arbitrary> jakoo, first export your outlook address book into some sort of file evolution can understand, perhaps a comma seperated values file would be good to start with
[04:24] <Jakoo> i have exported in .csv but it didnt work
[04:24] <mohbana_> is there no way of mounting another /home to ubuntu
[04:24] <bod_> Jakoo, why not just use thunderbird?
[04:24] <DanaG> DOes anybody know where I can find a copy of the stock sources.list?
[04:24] <mactimes> Hello, everyone.
[04:24] <bod_> hi
[04:24] <Jakoo> well i have evolution already installed in ububtu
[04:24] <un0p> bod_, alsaconf names  or aplay -l  should give you a list of cards -- to set the default you need to edit ~/.asoundrc
[04:24] <Arbitrary> I see, it didn't work how exactly?  a catastrophic failure, or a simple failure to map fields correctly?
[04:25] <DanaG> I want to add more mirrors to it, but keep the defaults about what's enabled and what's disabled, and give it as a reference for my school's LUG (Linux Users Group).
[04:25] <bod_> un0p,  ta m8
[04:25] <bod_> Jakoo, yer,. but thunderbird is better and will do this stuff for u
[04:25] <Jakoo> ok
[04:25] <Jakoo> ty
[04:25] <Arbitrary> indeed
[04:25] <bod_> np
[04:25] <dthacker> TIme to futz with the BIOS.  Later.
[04:26] <bod_> bye
[04:26] <glick> anyone know how i can get dbdesigner-fork running?
[04:26] <Jakoo> bye
[04:26] <bod_> bye
[04:26] <altf2o> anyone had any issues installing 7.10 Gutsy (AMD64 version) on a Core 2 Quad?
[04:26] <zetheroo> with the latest fglrx driver installed any video I play flickers non-stop...... why is that?
[04:26] <Arbitrary> quad...can't say I have
[04:26] <DanaG> anybody?  Just need a stock sources.list for gutsy.
[04:26] <un0p> zetheroo, could be a codec issue
[04:27] <glick> anyone get dbdesigner-fork running with ubuntu?
[04:27] <bod_> DanaG, gimme the dir il give u it
[04:27] <cre8torx> ls
[04:27] <DanaG>  /etc/apt/sources.list    -- but pastebin it, don't paste it here.  Or DCC may work, too.
[04:27] <adub> my time keeps jumping ahead an hour just exactly an hour though
[04:28] <livewire3030> hi guys, i am new to Linux/Ubuntu know absolutely nothing.. How do i install my nvidia graphics drivers.. I have downloaded the 64 bit drivers for my card from the nvidia site.. when i run it, it says it needs to be run from root.. what the?
[04:28] <marshall> does anybody know what might be causing this error when i try to run world of warcraft with the argument -opengl? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53625/
[04:28] <NeoOokami> livewire3030: Just use ubuntu's restricted driver manager, it will do all the work for you.
[04:28] <julio3patas> altf2o: i'm running the 32 , was running the 64 but had some issues can't remember exactly what but the 32 runs great on a quad
[04:28] <bod_> DanaG, this isnt completely stock,.,. ive added a few
[04:29] <DanaG> aah.
[04:29] <livewire3030> i tried that said the software source for the package nvidia-glx-new is not enabled
[04:29] <bod_> DanaG, its got the medibuntu and wine repo's in it
[04:29] <DanaG> I want to make it match stock by having comments and having multiverse disabled but universe enabled, for example.
[04:29] <bod_> DanaG, its unlikely anyone wont have added/removed some
[04:29] <glick> anyone here use dbdesigner?
[04:29] <DanaG> aah.
[04:30] <altf2o> julio - nice. I was hoping to see the 64bit version work, but it won't even boot. Gets about 3 messages printed to the screen then just hangs.
[04:30] <bod_> DanaG,  heres the link anyway : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53630/
[04:30] <cre8torx> hello
[04:30] <jeremysan> bod_ alright I read the section about setting the default device, but Im not really sure exactly what to do here.
[04:30] <DanaG> Cool, that seems to be exactly what I'm looking for.  Thanks!
[04:30] <altf2o> i got 32bit in, but it didn't configure my graphics properly & when i chose it (had both monitor & card listed) it froze again. Had to restart from the tower.
[04:30] <DanaG> (From the comments, I can figure out what to comment out.)
[04:30] <bod_> jeremysan,  kk lemme have a look
[04:31] <astro76> DanaG: here if you're interested, I put all my additions in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ so this is clean ;) http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53631/
[04:31] <mactimes> I'm trying to make my Ubuntu server safe and would like to know if there is any way I can lock root account, so that no one will be able to enabled it by using sudo passwd root.  Could someone, please, help?
[04:32] <stephan> ughhhh...i got ubuntu to install but now when i try to boot into it i get the "kernel alive" message and my system reboots everytime. bout to install winxp :(
[04:32] <bod_> jeremysan, in terminal type,.,.     cd /etc      (hit enter)     then type   ls | grep sound         wot do u get?
[04:33] <mumra1> Help!! I'm having serious problems with my xserver
[04:33] <mumra1> i have reconfigured it and tried manually messing with xorg to no avail
[04:33] <bod_> mumra1, reinstall?
[04:33] <mumra1> done
[04:33] <mumra1> no luck
[04:34] <mumra1> which really confuses me
[04:34] <jeremysan> bod_  i get 2 lines,   one line says    esound    the next says    sound
[04:34] <astro76> mactimes: you can't give unlimited sudo access and prevent that, unless you use sudoers to give them specific access to only certain programs
[04:34] <phix> Hello
[04:34] <mumra1> cause the live cd does my resolution fine, and the login screen is fine
[04:34] <mumra1> but when i login, i'm at a messed up resolution
[04:34] <bod_> jeremysan, kk gd gd,.,. gimme a sec,.,. whats the module of the intergrated card?
[04:34] <mumra1> !paste
[04:34] <mumra1> ?paste
[04:35] <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 (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)

[04:35] <ubotu> mumra1: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:35] <compwiz18> mumra1: what card / driver are you using?
[04:35] <walkies> good evening
[04:35] <bod_> !pastebin | mumra1
[04:35] <ubotu> mumra1: please see above
[04:35] <phix> Any way to get the gnome network detect thingy application to recognise my bridge as a device? instead of trying to enable DHCP on my NIC?
[04:35] <mumra1> compwiz: intel/intel
[04:36] <jeremysan> bod_ well im not sure what the module is, but on the HP website (my computer is an HP) the sound that came with this computer says:  Realtek ALC 880 chipset
[04:36] <mactimes> astro76: My intention is now blocking already created users or sudoers, but preventing someone which could have physical access to the machine to reset/enable root account.  I've seen and tried a procedure on the web which actually allows anyone with physical access to the PC to enable root account...
[04:36] <mumra1> i have not had problems with this in the past. things went screwy when i was trying to get my vga out to match the resolution of my hdtv
[04:36] <FluxD> Whats the commandline way to upgrade ubuntu toa newer version?
[04:36] <tablia> #ffmpeg
[04:36] <DanaG> Anyway, thanks for the sources.list file!
[04:36] <mactimes> astro76: Intention is *not*
[04:36] <livewire3030> guys i have tried installing my nvidia drivers through the Restricted Drivers page and it wont work, it says i dont have nvidia-glx-new.. I have downloaded the drivers from the nvidia site and tried installing them but says i need to do it from Root. i have tried that SU command to goto root but it wont work cause i dont know my p/w... Can someone please help me in trying to install these drivers.. i am totall new to linux have
[04:36] <DanaG> Oh, and hint for finding fast mirrors: look for educational institutions.
[04:36] <danbhfive> FluxD: I think its sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[04:36] <DanaG> Or if in the USA, look for sites on "Internet2".
[04:37] <astro76> FluxD: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[04:37] <bod_> jeremysan, ok hang on
[04:37] <tablia> does anyone know how to disable 'vino' ? thanks.
[04:37] <walkies> how could I get an idea of the differences between debian an ubuntu? things such as what config scripts are different in what ways, whaat files are different, differences in versions of packages and chosen dependencies of the base desktop system install, etc., etc.
[04:37] <astro76> mactimes: that's impossible, with physical access anything can be done, you must limit physical access
[04:37] <danbhfive> FluxD: but you have to manually change your sources too, its better to use the upgrade-manager
[04:37] <FluxD> astro76: I am on 6.06 server edition logged in using ssh as root so these command will still work right?
[04:38] <FluxD> danbhfive: I am on 6.06 server edition logged in using ssh as root so these command will still work right?
[04:38] <astro76> FluxD: keep in mind you have to upgrade 6.06 to 6.10 to 7.04 to 7.10
[04:38] <walkies> "et cetera, et cetera, et cetera" Guess I'm just looking for intelligent discussion on those differences
[04:38] <mactimes> astro76: Can't... Once my server is hosted in another company's data center...
[04:38] <astro76> mactimes: if you don't trust the data center you have problems then
[04:38] <mumra1> here are the pertinent parts of my xorg.conf. My primary issue is that gnome is starting up in the wrong resolution
[04:39] <mactimes> astro76: Would I face any trouble if I delete the root account?
[04:39] <danbhfive> FluxD: I don't think they will work, but they certainly wont hurt.  Hardy will have a direct upgrade path if you are willing to wait
[04:39] <mumra1> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53635/
[04:39] <astro76> mactimes: the root account is disabled by default, this is not the problem
[04:39] <mactimes> astro76: I mean, it is already disabled, right?
[04:39] <astro76> mactimes: I can stick any livecd in a machine and do what I want, the only thing you can do is possibly use encryption to protect sensitive data
[04:39] <FluxD> danbhfive: so stay with 6.06 ?
[04:40] <mactimes> astro76: That sounds exactly what I'm looking for.
[04:40] <FluxD> astro76: I am on 6.06 server edition logged in using ssh as root so these command will still work right?
[04:40] <eddi1> is it possible to completely delete an administrator account(given that there are more than one such accounts)
[04:40] <mactimes> astro76: How can I enable encryption for everything on the server?
[04:40] <rnisly> im having a serious problem with my xorg.conf everything works until i try to use the nvidia driver isntead of the nv driver. http://pastebin.ca/874221 is the xorg.conf
[04:41] <astro76> FluxD: um if you are really logged in as root then you don't use sudo
[04:41] <bod_> jeremysan, open a text editor and copy and paste the text from :http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53636/   then save the file as asound.conf    in the /etc/ folder ,.,. so ur path will be     /etc/asound.conf
[04:41] <danbhfive> FluxD: like a person said, you would have to upgrade like 4 times to get the latest, where as when hardy comes out, you will only have to upgrade once.  Its up to you
[04:41] <astro76> mactimes: encrypted filesystems, it's not for the faint of heart though
[04:41] <FluxD> danbhfive: I guess I will test and see :)
[04:41] <FluxD> astro76: ty
[04:42] <mactimes> astro76: Hummm...  Do you have any good recommendation for encrypted file system?
[04:42] <mumra1> so anyone have any idea why gnome refuses to start up in the proper resolution? if i remove all but the desired modelines from my xorg.conf (http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53635/) it still boots up in the wrong res.
[04:42] <bod_> un0p, will this work??? :http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53636/

[04:44] <jeremysan> bod_ when I try to save the document in /etc/ i am told that I do not have permissions necessary to save it there.  what can i do to save it there?
[04:45] <bod_> jeremysan,  in terminal type     sudo gedit ,.,. use this editor to make and save the fiel
[04:45] <walkies> where could I find ubuntu specific things that I could do to stop applications causing my system to not respond? things such as the update manager, synaptic, firefox, evince, all have been known to mysteriously cause everything to lag up
[04:45] <fatedkiss> ./wave
[04:46] <danbhfive> rnisly: whats the problem?
[04:46] <spdf> rnisly, can you pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[04:46] <walkies> where i'm lucky if I can even do ctrl-alt-backspace, everything halts... sometimes I'm able to close the offending app and regain control of the system, but other times it's very frustrating
[04:46] <jeremysan> bod_ alright, done.  asound.conf is in the /etc/ folder

[04:47] <aragorn> any of you ubuntu lovers like radiohead?

[04:48] <bazhang> offtopic but yeah aragorn

[04:48]  * regeya does that just because if he discusses anything remotely not totally specific to ubuntu, he hgets hit about the head with a cluestick
[04:49] <spdf> rnisly, rather, probably best to go through the restricted modules configuration tool

[04:49] <bod_> radiohead doesnt exist in gutsy,.,. according to ubotu

[04:50] <astro76> you're welcome

[04:53] <bod_> jeremysan,  no probs m8,.,. try getting a better sound card,.,.lol
[04:53] <regeya> regeya: coping with the differences well?  hopefully you are; ubuntu is quite logical in many ways.  xp attempted to monkeypatch some of the difficulties of pre-xp installs, but it always felt a little hackish.  personally I use kubuntu, but to eac htheir own :-)
[04:53] <jeremysan> bod_ hahah.
[04:53] <un0p> jeremysan, still having problems choosing the default sound device?
[04:53] <fatedkiss> anyone know anything bout chroot? or debootstrap?

[04:54] <un0p> fatedkiss, hey :)

[04:54] <un0p> fatedkiss, go ahead
[04:55] <rnisly> spdf do u know offhand what that is?

[04:57] <bod_> rnisly,  dunno,,. should work,.,.
[04:57] <rnisly> thats what i thoguth too
[04:57] <un0p> fatedkiss, sure, go ahead

[04:59] <rnisly> danbhfive : how do i find that?
[04:59] <un0p> bod_, jeremysan might need to quote "Realtek ALC 880"
[04:59] <apallo> is there a way to force ubuntu to throttle the cpu in my laptop?
[04:59] <spdf> rnisly, you also need nvidia-kernel-common
[04:59] <bod_> jeremysan, actually type this :asoundconf set-default-card "Realtek ALC 880"
[04:59] <bod_> un0p, good point ,.,. cheers
[05:00] <Breakage> Hi, I'm trying to stream a divx file from stage6 though mplayer without firefox just using mplayer>open>play url.., divx files from the hdd work fine with mplayer. but when i try to steam it just freezes and i have to kill it. how do i fix this?
[05:00] <rnisly> spdf : nvidia-kernel-common is already the newest version
[05:01] <jeremysan> bod_ , un0p , alright I entered " asoundconf set-default-card "Realtek ALC 880"  " and then apparently nothing happened.  should i try to reboot?
[05:01] <un0p> jeremysan, you should try playing something
[05:01] <bod_> jeremysan,  if there is no output it means it has worked
[05:01] <spdf> rnisly, try sudo nvidia-glx-config enable
[05:01] <danbhfive> rnisly: try turning compiz off
[05:01] <danbhfive> rnisly: but listen to spdf more
[05:02] <bod_> lol
[05:02] <meoblast001> hello.... can anyone help explain to me why dgen has a segfault upon launch on my ps3 but works fine on my i386 laptop?.... and can someone also tell me why after performing "apt-get upgrade" and waiting a few hours on my ps3 for it to do "upgrades", it is still in feisty?
[05:02] <rnisly> spdf : ran that and it still doesn't work
[05:02] <rnisly> danbhfive : is turned off
[05:03] <bod_> jeremysan,  any joy?
[05:03] <astro76> meoblast001: no idea about the ps3, but it's dist-upgrade
[05:03] <meoblast001> k
[05:03] <spdf> rnisly, still the same in Xorg.0.log? kernel driver not found?
[05:03] <Arbitrary> the PS3 only has 256 MB O ram
[05:03] <jeremysan> un0p, bod_, well i tried playing a song and no sound.  also there is still a speaker in the top right corner with a red restricted sign, so no apparent changes.
[05:03] <meoblast001> now i need to figure out why dgen doesnt work... i think the powerpc version might be messed up
[05:03] <bod_> jeremysan, reboot
[05:03] <spdf> rnisly, rather, failed to load
[05:04] <jeremysan> bod_ alright, brb
[05:04] <meoblast001> is there any possible way to get an i386 binary to run on Cell (powerpc)
[05:04] <spdf> rnisly, have you restarted since you installed the packages?
[05:04] <bullgard4> man gnome-system-monitor writes: "You can access detailed memory maps." Where will I find the 'detailed memory maps' in System Monitor?
[05:04] <rnisly> spdf : yes and yes
[05:04] <Arbitrary> no, an i386 binary will not run on a cell processor
[05:04] <spdf> rnisly, lsmod | grep nvidia
[05:04] <Arbitrary> you can recompile the source code of course
[05:05] <Breakage> Hi, I'm trying to stream a divx file from stage6 though mplayer without firefox just using mplayer>open>play url.., divx files from the hdd work fine with mplayer. but when i try to steam it just freezes and i have to kill it. how do i fix this
[05:05] <meoblast001> Arbitrary: are there any emulators that can...... because i cant get the source to compile right (i get some recursive-all error) and the powerpc binary segfaults upon loading of a rom file
[05:05] <spdf> Breakage, no error on the command line?
[05:05] <Breakage> spdf: hold on, ill check
[05:06] <Arbitrary> well, you could try qemu
[05:06] <Arbitrary> or some such thing
[05:06] <Arbitrary> but it hardly seems necessary
[05:06] <nemilar> qemu is deadly slow

[05:07] <LadyNikon> Anyone use a G15 keyboard with gutsy?  I don't wanna buy it if i cant get it working.
[05:07] <meoblast001> ok ill compile real quick and give the error
[05:07] <spdf> rnisly, hmm... dmesg | grep nvidia
[05:07] <jeremysan> i dont think that command in terminal did anything
[05:08] <rnisly> doesn't show anything
[05:08] <spdf> rnisly, looks like its not loading on boot
[05:08] <un0p> fatedkiss, gimme a min.
[05:08] <moo_cow> which of these required dependency packages for vlc are not included with ubuntu by default? http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/graphics/vlc
[05:08] <rnisly> spdf so what do i have to do?
[05:08] <mkquist> jeremysan: the speaker w/red still there?
[05:08] <EmmerP> hi
[05:08] <apallo> is there a way to force ubuntu to throttle the cpu in my laptop?
[05:08] <jeremysan> mkquist: yes it is.
[05:08] <Breakage> spdf: this is what im getting, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53638/
[05:08] <mkquist> jeremysan: youve tried running aslamixer?
[05:09] <Arbitrary> lord Xenu left us all in termoil!
[05:09] <moo_cow> apallo, underclock the cpu if possible
[05:09] <Arbitrary> woops
[05:09] <moo_cow> apallo, does it support cpu frequency scaling?
[05:09] <nate_> soooo, does the flash player not work in firefox?
[05:09] <nate_> on 7.10?
[05:09] <n2diy_> Is there an LTS channel for Ubuntu?
[05:09] <fatedkiss> un0p, ok its a long paste >.>
[05:09] <mkquist> nate_: works fine
[05:10] <nate_> mkquist, which package gives me it then?
[05:10] <apallo> my proc does, i wanted to know if gutsy did
[05:10] <jeremysan> mkquist:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53639/
[05:10] <bullgard4> n2diy_: I don't think so.
[05:10] <moo_cow> apallo, your proc does what?
[05:10] <zhanx> LadyNikon, it work "i believe" you just got to remap the shorcut keys the fun, which you can goggle to do
[05:10] <apallo> erm, i didn't see all of what you were saying
[05:11] <n2diy_> bullgard4: that is as shame, why do they call LTS then?
[05:11] <apallo> i'm on an IBM (one of the last lol), so the bios doesn't really allow for underclocking
[05:11] <astro76> n2diy_: the channel is this one
[05:11] <meoblast001> Arbitrary: http://www.pastebin.ca/874274
[05:11] <nate_> mkquist, ???
[05:11] <un0p> fatedkiss, pm me
[05:11] <spdf> rnisly, try another restart and check dmesg again
[05:11] <EmmerP> does anyone knows the webcam app Cheese? It makes ubuntu X server crash when I try to record a video...
[05:11] <apallo> i wanted to see if there's an app somewhere that i can get to allow me to change my cpu freq through ACPI
[05:12] <astro76> n2diy_: and the LTS just refers to package security updates and how long the repository is maintained
[05:12] <moo_cow> apallo, does the proc support cpu frequency scaling?
[05:12] <nate_> mkquist, i have flashplugin-nonfree, and it's not working
[05:12] <apallo> it's a centrino duo, so yes
[05:12] <nate_> anyone else?
[05:13] <apallo> !ubotu flash
[05:13] <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
[05:13] <ubotu> The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix.
[05:13] <n2diy_> astro76: fine business, were would I find 6.06 now, if I wanted to DL it?
[05:13] <astro76> n2diy_: still at ubuntu.com
[05:13] <meoblast001> Arbitrary: any idea?
[05:13] <moo_cow> apallo, then right click the gnome panel>add to panel >  cpu frequency scaling applet and the do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure gnome-applets" after that, right click the gnome applet and you should be able to throttle the speed.

[05:14] <Arbitrary> join me in #lowtech for idle chat
[05:14] <bullgard4> n2diy_: The reason for that name is that Canonical feels itself committed to remove bugs and provide security updates "for a long time". A support in the form of information to non-paying users is done via the same means as for 'short time versions'.

[05:17] <apallo> thanks Moo and Ziro, i appreciate your help!
[05:18] <n2diy_> IndyGunFreak: LTS is not available at shipit.com

[05:22] <fatedkiss> un0p, would the bootstrap command been the first command in that section?
[05:22] <Ashex> i've got a directory full of html files, and I need to find one that has a specific link in it. I just can't remember which one it is :/
[05:22] <fatedkiss> un0p, because that one went through ok, i was thinkign it could be becaus ei never installed the linux32 package?

[05:24] <spdf> rnisly, its not 64bit, right?
[05:24] <proq> well it works somewhat decently on linux IA32, but pretty poorly on AMD 64
[05:25] <speedy> tritium, to be honest, i checked out the claims that it was broken, and i couldnt replicate the error accross several machines
[05:25] <rnisly> spdf : 32bit
[05:25] <tritium> speedy: nevertheless, it was broken (no quotes necessary)
[05:25] <fatedkiss> un0p, ok question on when it told me to install linux32 package i was going to but i said it was also gunna rmeove 4 files and one was an esental package
[05:25] <IndyGunFreak> livewire3030: what nvidia card?
[05:25] <fatedkiss> un0p, called util-linux

[05:26] <speedy> Stephen-Mason,  you havent got the drivers installed
[05:26] <Stephen-Mason> i know, lol, how do i install them? :S

[05:28] <bod_> speedy, change ur name cause  i cant be bothered to type it
[05:28] <un0p> fatedkiss, but are you running that command in the chroot??
[05:28] <tritium> bod_: you can't be bothered to type any word properly, it seems
[05:28] <speedy> bod_,  sounds about right ;)
[05:28] <un0p> fatedkiss, because if you are, you shouldn't be prompted to remove anything
[05:28] <tritium> bod_, aka, Mr. AIM-Speak
[05:29] <bod_> tritium, so
[05:29] <speedy> i hate the way this chan is practically tech support
[05:29] <speedy> thats what the forums are for
[05:29] <speedy> jeez
[05:29] <bod_> lol
[05:29] <fatedkiss> un0p, i was actually trying to install it with synaptic first..that told me touninstall them, i then tryed apt-get
[05:29] <bod_> dont do this,. dont do that
[05:29] <tritium> speedy: no, that's what this channel is for as well
[05:29] <fatedkiss> un0p, i wasnt in the chroot dir
[05:29] <un0p> fatedkiss, you need to follow instructions to the letter otherwise you could wreck your current system
[05:29] <bod_> tritium, this channel is for general support for ubuntu,.,. not just technical questions
[05:30] <Breakage> spdf: hmm, strange it was already commented out under /etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf but when i load it under Multimedia>Mplayer movie player "gmplayer". Still freezes.
[05:30] <tritium> bod_: trust me, as an op in this channel, I know its purpose
[05:30] <speedy> tritium, i would of assumed you would prefer people to consult the well documented forums regarding things such as basic installation of drivers rather then come here and ask questions trailed with lols ?
[05:30] <fatedkiss> un0p, im pretty sure i did i was just copying and pasting, weverything seemed to go through ok
[05:30] <tritium> speedy: the forums haven't always even been official.  This channel always has.
[05:30] <spdf> rnisly, its not a laptop is it?
[05:30] <bod_> tritium, that may be its purpose but its not what its used for
[05:31] <speedy> tritium,  that hatdly makes a difference to what i just said
[05:31] <speedy> *hardly
[05:31] <rnisly> spdf : nope custom made desktop
[05:31] <tritium> speedy: you would *have* assumed, eh?
[05:31] <un0p> fatedkiss, like i was saying yesterday - the chroot is that seperate compartment on your OS, its seperate from the main OS so what you do in it, doesnt affect the main OS and vice versa -- the fact that you were prompted to remove something suggests to me that you committed those commands outside the chroot
[05:31] <tritium> bod_: sure it is.
[05:32] <speedy> tritium, way to ignore my point -_-
[05:32] <Stephen-Mason> i dont get it? all that link says is tick the box and it will work but it doesnt?
[05:32] <Stephen-Mason> do i have to download something?
[05:32] <bod_> tritium,  i come here, to get help, and to help others, that doesnt mean i can only help them if they have a technical question does it?
[05:32] <tritium> speedy: I'm not, it's just not worth debating, as it's offtopic
[05:32] <speedy> Stephen-Mason,  tick the box then click ok, then restart
[05:33] <moo_cow> which of these required dependency packages for vlc are not included with ubuntu by default? http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/graphics/vlc
[05:33] <tritium> bod_, speedy: if you want to discuss further, do so in #ubuntu-offtopic, please
[05:33] <bod_> tritium,  actually its completely on-topic,.,. being as it concerns this channel
[05:33] <bod_> tritium, will u join us?
[05:33] <fatedkiss> un0p, right..i maybe didnt read it right i wasnt tryigng to install the linux32 pack inside chroot
[05:33] <Frappe79> Hi guys, I am new to Ubuntu 7.10. Have an acer 4064 (2yrs old) and completely removed xp. I have tried to follow wikis to get Flash working in my browser however its not working. I have also tried to get wireless working, but no luck also. My wireless card is an internal Intel 2200bg and also have a PCMCIA Card which has a D-Link G630 wireless card. These devices worked flawlessly on windows, but now it doesnt do anything.
[05:33] <Stephen-Mason> i get an error tho? saying the software source package is not avalable?
[05:33] <tritium> bod_: for a while
[05:33] <speedy> tritium,  is there a channel that is on-topic but not support?
[05:33] <fatedkiss> un0p, it was indeed outside. i probably just misunderstood what you said or something, sorry >.>
[05:33] <Stephen-Mason> i tryed it earlyer and it gave me the same message after i restarted?
[05:34] <speedy> like, an ubuntu channel with clever people that arent talking "off-topic" but at the same time aren't asking for basic tech support?
[05:34] <Stephen-Mason> the driver was still disabled?
[05:34] <spdf> rnisly, go to KMenu -> System Settings, Advanced Tab, and click Restricted Drivers
[05:34] <tritium> speedy: #ubuntu-offtopic, please
[05:34] <n2diy_> 73, good night all.
[05:34] <bod_> tritium, speedy, ok im in #ubuntu-offtopic    u guys joining me?
[05:34] <IndyGunFreak> !flashissue | Frappe79
[05:34] <ubotu> Frappe79: The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix.
[05:34] <tuxmaniac> How to do gtalk voice chat in Pidgin or kopete
[05:34] <speedy> tritium,  does that channel do what i just asked for?
[05:35] <tritium> speedy: no
[05:35] <Frappe79> thanks ubotu, any tips on the wireless?
[05:35] <speedy> tritium,  so where can i go to talk about all things ubuntu that ISNT tech support?
[05:35] <astro76> speedy: in #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:35] <un_op> speedy, is it even ubuntu related?
[05:35] <IndyGunFreak> !wireless | Frappe79
[05:35] <speedy> thats off topic though
[05:35] <ubotu> Frappe79: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:35] <speedy> therfore no ubuntu cvhat
[05:35] <speedy> *chat
[05:35] <bod_> un_op, its completely ubuntu related,.,. this is the argument
[05:35] <tritium> speedy: I've told you.  Continue this discussion in #ubuntu-offtopic.  Last time I'm goign to tell you...
[05:36] <astro76> speedy: no support in offtopic, ubuntu is fine
[05:36] <rnisly> spdf : restricted-manager-kde?
[05:36] <fatedkiss> un0p, sudo chroot /var/chroot/gutsy whats that do exactly?
[05:36] <speedy> astro76,  but its off-topic, therefore not about ubuntu
[05:36] <spdf> rnisly, that sounds about right (I don't use KUbuntu, so I'm flying on fumse here lol)
[05:36] <un_op> fatedkiss,  that changes the root to the choot so that you can begin installing stuff in there
[05:37] <bod_> speedy, tritium, are you gonna join me in #ubuntu-offtopic?
[05:37] <tritium> bod_: you're last to join
[05:37] <un_op> speedy, if it's ubuntu related, it can stay here
[05:37] <bod_> oops
[05:37] <fatedkiss> un_op, so would i run that command then use w-get to install linux32?
[05:38] <un_op> fatedkiss, does the howto suggest you do that?
[05:38] <rnisly> spdf : i tried enabling the restricted driver earlier and it didn't work... still doesn't... don't worry about it, i can reinstall
[05:38] <fatedkiss> un_op, no thats kinda how i got thrown off earlier all it says to do is install the package, so when i did i got the promt to remove others
[05:38] <meoblast001> i ran sudo apt-get dist-upgrade..... then restarted.... and im still running feisty... why?
[05:39] <Stephen-Mason> ok  just try to restart but i still cant enable the driver?
[05:39] <spdf> meoblast001, did it actually upgrade any packages?
[05:39] <silent_> meoblast001, chances are you're running bits of both if the command did something
[05:39] <un_op> meoblast001, because you didnt update your sources.list file ?
[05:39] <adante> hm
[05:39] <spdf> meoblast001, pretty sure there's more to it than that..
[05:39] <jrib> meoblast001: because that is not how you (are supposed to) upgrade in ubuntu
[05:39] <jrib> !upgrade > meoblast001 (read the private message from ubotu)
[05:39] <adante> periodically there is something that is setting my pcm volume to 0, anybody think of an easy way for me to find out what it is
[05:39] <silent_> meoblast001, there's no great hurdle to distro upgrading... it's just newer packages and added packages
[05:40] <silent_> meoblast001, there can be issues however... which is why I just download the latest cd image
[05:40] <meoblast001> well anyways... i dont think gutsy would have fixed the problem im having anyways
[05:40] <un_op> fatedkiss, you didnt run the command in the chroot if you were prompted to remove something
[05:40]  * spdf waits for release dates, he hates breakage.
[05:40] <bullgard4> astro76: I found it finally.  --  Thank you.
[05:40] <meoblast001> i think the program im trying to run just wasn't ever tested on CELL
[05:41] <fatedkiss> un_op, right..but i wasnt promted to..thats why im confused..because what im undertsnading is your saying i should..
[05:41] <Topooceannes> Hello..  My sound has been acting up lately.  I was trying to get dmixing working with amarok through ALSA and now my ALSA is not working at all.  Anyone have any idea how I might be able to fix this?
[05:41] <un_op> fatedkiss, ok, never mind what's happened this far -- delete the chroot folder and start again -  rm -rf /var/chroot/gutsy
[05:42] <Stephen-Mason> i have a geforce go 6400 graphics, i am trying to enable the driver but it doesnt work?
[05:42] <un_op> fatedkiss, but follow the howto this time -- no synaptic or doing things your way
[05:42] <fatedkiss> un0p, ...i was..
[05:43] <FluxD> Hi, Is there a command to make a new user account from commandline?
[05:43] <meoblast001> can someone with a powerpc do me a favor?
[05:44] <fatedkiss> un0p,  ill quote exactly what is says
[05:44] <fatedkiss> un0p, "If you are running a 64bit kernel and install a 32bit chroot (architectures i386, lpia on amd64, sparc, powerpc), add the line
[05:44] <fatedkiss>  personality=linux32
[05:44] <fatedkiss> and install the linux32 package. This avoids prefix each schroot command with the linux32 command.
[05:44] <fatedkiss> "
[05:44] <FluxD> In Kubuntu, I am getting an error saying "The module Users and Groups cannot be loaded"
[05:44] <Breakage> spdf: this is my .conf, it still crashes though http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53640/
[05:44] <rnisly> meoblast001 : what do u need my sisters have one
[05:45] <meoblast001> rnisly: i need someone to test the program dgen...... i installed it on my i386 and it runs fine.... i installed it on my ps3 and everytime i load a ROM, it segfaults
[05:45] <spdf> Breakage, strange.. considering it worked from the command line

[05:46] <Stephen-Mason>  i have a geforce go 6400 graphics, i am trying to enable the driver but it doesnt work?????? :(
[05:46] <spdf> Breakage, check .mplayer/config, there may be something overiding it
[05:46] <Breakage> spdf: ok :)
[05:46] <spacedart> sega logo on what?
[05:47] <spdf> Breakage, otherwise, all I can suggest is doing it like that at the commandline when you want to play those streams

[05:47] <mkquist> !sound | Topooceannes
[05:47] <ubotu> Topooceannes: 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).

[05:47] <bazhang> mkquist: depends on the video card

[05:47] <spdf> pvl1, and neverputt as well
[05:48] <Stephen-Mason>  i have a geforce go 6400 graphics, i am trying to enable the driver but it doesnt work???? please help
[05:48] <Breakage> spdf: problem with that is it doesn't maximise or pause. I have audio sync problems with totem and vlc freezes sometimes like its buffering and doesn't start again. you know anyother divx players?
[05:48] <spdf> pvl1, as long as you have accelerated graphics
[05:48] <bazhang> mkquist: oops sorry meant for pv1
[05:48] <spdf> Breakage, try xine or vl
[05:48] <pvl1> spdf, methinks i do. ill check em out, thanks
[05:48] <spdf> Breakage, vlc, rather
[05:48] <mkquist> bazhang: np
[05:48] <Breakage> spdf: thanks ill try xine :) if this doesnt work
[05:49] <spdf> pvl1, billiard-gl as well, for some pool
[05:49] <bazhang> pvl1: there are many if your video card is from the last five or six years
[05:49] <pvl1> bazhang, i think it is. apperently direct rendiring has been turned of. gotta deal with that....
[05:49] <bazhang> pvl1: what card?

[05:50] <pvl1> bazhang, matrox g450. ive definetly had it turned on, i was playing tremulos quite fine
[05:50] <Stephen-Mason>  i have a geforce go 6400 graphics, i am trying to enable the driver but it doesnt work?
[05:50] <bazhang> pvl1: if you can play *that* then there is a world of gaming awaiting you :]
[05:50] <spdf> Stephen-Mason, the restricted driver?
[05:51] <Arbitrary> here's a question I've been wondering about for a while,  I have a cheap laptop with an ATI X1100 graphics chip, it works with the ATI 1250 and the X300 drivers for linux, but when I boot on the battery, the screen just turns white, when I boot on the AC adapter, everything works...what do you guys think?
[05:51] <Topooceannes> Thanks a lot mkquist
[05:51] <bazhang> Stephen-Mason: have you read the nvidia setup link and followed the steps?
[05:51] <vrkhans> hi I am installing flash player plugins, i download the flash player un tar it, instlling it, during install it is asking please enter the installation path of the mozilla browser i enter /usr/lib/mozilla but it is not acception what should i do.
[05:51] <pvl1> bazhang, i know. i just cant find out how to deal with it. idk what i installed or downloaded but i cant play it anymore
[05:51] <Stephen-Mason> yes the restricted driver
[05:51] <vrkhans> please help me
[05:51] <pvl1> !flash
[05:51] <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
[05:51] <ubotu> The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix.
[05:51] <fritsy4> how easy would it be for me to downgrade from gutsy to fesity while keeping all my data/settings?
[05:51] <bazhang> pvl1: sounds like the driver--you didnt use envy did you? :]
[05:51] <kbrosnan> vrkhans: /usr/lib/firefox
[05:52] <Stephen-Mason> yes? i think, you go to the thing tick it enable restart? did i miss something?
[05:52] <pvl1> bazhang, i uninstalled it!!! thats probably it!!! but like it didnt need envy tho. ima try getting it back. thanks for brining this to my attention
[05:52] <bazhang> Arbitrary: yeah I had that problem--the battery sounds iffy
[05:53] <bazhang> pvl1: yeah, envy is not needed--the regular driver should do you fine
[05:53] <bazhang> ughh need to get a new kb
[05:53] <l3ttuc3> pvl1 i've tried that thing for flash, even tried getting the tarball and .rpm from adobe, it installs to opera's plugin directory, but flash still does not work.
[05:53] <fritsy4> in other words - how do i downgrade to feisty while keeping all my data /settings?
[05:53] <vrkhans> thansk
[05:53] <bazhang> !downgrade | fritsy4
[05:53] <ubotu> fritsy4: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system.
[05:54] <pvl1> l3ttuc3, oh, sorry i just saw fdlash and put that in, doubt i can help but whats wrong?
[05:54] <bazhang> l3ttuc3: we are all waiting for the flash fix :[
[05:54] <Arbitrary> the battery seems fine, fully charged and all
[05:54] <pvl1> bazhang, still mightve messed with my driver so ill try getting it back
[05:54] <bazhang> Arbitrary: that is odd..
[05:54] <fritsy4> bazhang, ok , is there a way to resintall and somehow keep the settings?
[05:55] <bazhang> Arbitrary: what about starting with ac and then going to battery?
[05:55] <Sonderblade> how do you check which package that has installed a certain file?
[05:55] <Flannel> fritsy4: Move /home to a different partition, back up /etc, reinstall feisty around it.
[05:55] <l3ttuc3> bazhang how do you mean? pvl1 well, no matter what method i use to install flash, it just does not work.
[05:55] <bazhang> Arbitrary: what happens then
[05:55] <Flannel> Sonderblade: dpkg -S [file]
[05:55] <nickrud> Sonderblade: dpkg -S /path/to/file
[05:55] <atm0sph>  Flannel backup /etc when you reformat?
[05:55] <pvl1> l3ttuc3, well im, not sure but i dont think i got it to work eityher. i just messed with firefox plugins untill it worked
[05:55] <fritsy4> Flannel, if i do that ,teh new install will naturally create its own /home , no? thenm i will have two /home?
[05:55] <Flannel> atm0sph: back it up to your homedir or whatnot, yeah.  If he's made any global config file changes.
[05:56] <nickrud> l3ttuc3: I think you have to use the latest opera beta to use the new flash, it has a new plugin interface
[05:56] <Sonderblade> Flannel: nickrud thanks
[05:56] <Flannel> fritsy4: no.  When you do the instlal, you'll mark your old home as /home, telling the installer to not format that partition.
[05:56] <l3ttuc3> pvl1 oh, and if i try to get the firefox plugin, it'll tell me it's downloading it, but i seem to recall it also said it didn't install it for some reason.
[05:56] <atm0sph> fritsy4, you copy your old home folder to your new one, then login as yourself - enabel the ROOT account, logout, then chown your home folder
[05:56] <Stephen-Mason> have you got a link to the nvidia set up guide ill take a look at it? i think i followed the steps tho?
[05:56] <bazhang> !nvidia
[05:56] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:56] <l3ttuc3> nickrud opera 9.53 thereabouts? how come 9.23 doesn't?
[05:56] <fatedkiss> <.< un_op i got ..somehow disconnected, did you get what i was able to last say?
[05:56] <l3ttuc3> work, i mean.
[05:57] <pvl1> l3ttuc3, oh. idk then. im just waiting for adobe to fix it.
[05:57] <fritsy4> Flannel, ok, after i reinstall do i replace the backed-up /etc to the new /etc?
[05:57] <pvl1> whic reminds me. pdf is always so for me on any computer
[05:57] <pvl1> y use it?
[05:57] <l3ttuc3> pvl1 been a week or two :( still no change! pdf?
[05:57] <fritsy4> atm0sph, in that case i will have two /home, no?
[05:57] <nickrud> l3ttuc3: adobe is using a new way of interfacing with browsers (started by mozilla I think)
[05:57] <Flannel> fritsy4: Have you actually made any changes to anything in /etc?
[05:58] <atm0sph> fritsy4, you copy your old home to the new home and set the owner as your new account...  that';s that way I heard to do it.. flannels way is probablyu better though with the whole pointing the install to the old directory method
[05:58] <pvl1> l3ttuc3, adobe made the pdf thingymbabob and yes ive been onlinx for ubuntu for months and they still havent fixed it. not realling missing it
[05:58] <l3ttuc3> nickrud isn't there an older plugin available that _would_ work?
[05:58] <kasan_sweat> I have a pc with a nonworking cdrom, but I have a spare small hard drive. Can I just copy the ubuntu iso to that hard drive and boot from it?
[05:58] <atm0sph> fritsy4, but yes, you would have two home's.  One semi empty, one with your old stuff..
[05:58] <fritsy4> Flannel, i don't know. i
[05:58] <fritsy4>
[05:58] <nickrud> l3ttuc3: probably. Don't know where you'd find it
[05:58] <l3ttuc3> pvl1 i can read pdf files, using the document viewer.
[05:58] <fritsy4> Flannel, i just have many programmes installed
[05:58] <Stephen-Mason> im new to linux is there a form of remote assistance where one of you guys could help me?
[05:59] <l3ttuc3> nickrud i take it ubuntu does not have it in its repositories, but wgets it from the parent sites?
[05:59] <jrib> Stephen-Mason: yep, just ask the channel your question
[05:59] <nickrud> l3ttuc3: yes
[05:59] <pvl1> l3ttuc3, its not connected to flash. just the same company made the readers and stuff
[05:59] <Flannel> fritsy4: Back up /etc, and then don't replace anything.  Only replace stuff when you realize you need to edit (replace that particular file/whatever).  You can get a list of all the packages you have installed with, um.  the factoid is !cloning
[05:59] <Stephen-Mason> how do i enable my nvidia driver? do i need to open terminal at all?
[05:59] <jrib> !nvidia > Stephen-Mason (read the private message from ubotu)
[06:00] <l3ttuc3> nickrud, pvl1, hmm. i'll have a look at all that. thanks.
[06:00] <l3ttuc3> if i get any luck, i'll chip back in here.
[06:00] <fritsy4> Flannel, thanks ! last question - can i back up my vmware in the same way ? (i have an XP installed under vmware)
[06:00] <Stephen-Mason> ive read that thing it dont help me
[06:00] <fritsy4> !cloning
