[09:05] <kallei> i cant get iptables to work.  i have just compiled the kernel but maybe i forgot something in the xconfig. what do i need to select in the xconfig to get iptables to be installed?
[09:05] <TheGateKeeper> utab: doesn't like the sources?
[09:05] <jrib> oppN|RgX-[i] : it's just trying to load the live-cd.  It's not installing anything, so nothing should happen
[09:05] <typhoid> ?  it seems to me that i'm doing it right.. i can connect @ commandline using    sudo mysql..
[09:05] <utab> TheGateKeeper, what is that
[09:05] <oppN|RgX-[i] > so thats what the artwork means?

[09:07] <hector> como instalo amsn
[09:07] <oppN|RgX-[i] > i followed the install icon from the desktop
[09:07] <stray77> marky, sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /media/ntfs
[09:07] <marky> hmm xp boots but i think its down to bad sectors why it won't run properly
[09:07] <Ropechoborra> hector, este es un canal solo para ayuda en ingles, si necesitas ayuda en espaol, ingresa a #ubuntu-es tipeando /join #ubuntu-es
[09:07] <oppN|RgX-[i] > it did everything but then it froze at 99 %  at ubuiquity-ubuntu-artwork
[09:07] <typhoid> what a waste of time..
[09:08] <kjm> marky : then run as fast as you can to store, buy new disk and pray.
[09:08] <jrib> oppN|RgX-[i] : oh so it's stuck on the install.  In that case the install might just not work and I would suggest burning at a lower speed anyway, reformatting the partition, and trying again
[09:08] <oppN|RgX-[i] > arg arg arg
[09:08] <oppN|RgX-[i] > ok i'll try to restart
[09:08] <oppN|RgX-[i] > one question about the formatting
[09:08] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: ask a question :)
[09:08] <oppN|RgX-[i] > does it happen before or after the install
[09:08] <marky> mount: mount point /media/ntfs does not exist
[09:08] <marky> :S
[09:08] <jrib> oppN|RgX-[i] : before
[09:09] <stray77> sudo mkdir /media/ntfs
[09:09] <typhoid> fyrestrtr: i've asked a couple times already, all i got was,     '#mysqlonubuntu?"
[09:09] <krizzer> how do i change my refesh rate
[09:09] <TheGateKeeper> utab: unless someone help you get out of this mess, what I would suggest is that you backup your data in your home directory, then reinstall, the only other thing I can think of is to try another country code
[09:09] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: I just joined, repeat please.
[09:09] <marky> it says mount: mount point /media/ntfs does not exist
[09:09] <Comrade-Sergei> manopulus um how do you actualy use voip buster
[09:09] <stray77> make a folder there
[09:09] <jrib> krizzer: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, will let you change your refresh rate I believe
[09:09] <stray77> first
[09:09] <TheGateKeeper> utab: you did replace the word dapper with breezy didn't you?
[09:09] <utab> TheGateKeeper, tried all nearby countries
[09:09] <Comrade-Sergei> it looks like it loaded but the icon does nto work
[09:09] <krizzer> what is the command to edit xorg in a text editor, bot in the terminal?
[09:10] <utab> TheGateKeeper, yes
[09:10] <manopulus> Comrade-Sergei, no, i work in telco and i calling for free :)
[09:10] <fyrestrtr> krizzer: sudo nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:10] <kjm> krizzer : sudo nano <file>
[09:10] <typhoid> I have installed mysql and mysqladmin..  i can connect to the mysql server from  command line (sudo mysql.. it says i connect to localhost using unix sock /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock -) -  I try to connect using  mysqladmin and it says it cannot connect (though it can ping...)
[09:10] <Comrade-Sergei> manopulus italian huh?
[09:10] <kjm> fyrestrtr : what does the -w switch do?
[09:10] <manopulus> Comrade-Sergei, but voipbuster giving free calls, visit www.voip-info.org and look well
[09:10] <marky> stray77 it says mount: mount point /media/ntfs does not exist
[09:10] <typhoid> I'm wondering if i am doing something wrong, or making a common mistake, or overlooking something that I need to do extra in order to connect via mysqladmin =D
[09:11] <Comrade-Sergei> manopulus yes but thats for windows and wine wont worj for it
[09:11] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart
[09:11] <krizzer> sudo nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf outs it in the terminal, there was a commnd that i used that let me use a text editor and that was alot eaiser, does anyone know it
[09:11] <stray77> marky, you have to create the directory first with sudo mkdir /media/ntfs
[09:11] <kinections> where is the apache src located for ubuntu?
[09:11] <manopulus> Comrade-Sergei, you need windows app only to register accoint
[09:11] <TheGateKeeper> utab: sorry, unless someone more knowledgable than me can help you, I would backup up your data, and reinstall sorry :-(
[09:11] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: wait, did you say you install 'mysql' and 'mysqladmin' ?
[09:11] <cmatheson> i'm looking for a livecd that's easy to modify (i need to add a vpn client)... are there any that can just be mounted as a loopback filesystem and edited that way?
[09:11] <hardporn> Hi, why doesn't this http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=33871 cool theme work?
[09:11] <manopulus> Comrade-Sergei, then google for voipbuster asterisk pbx
[09:11] <kjm> krizzer : lose the -w flag
[09:11] <manopulus> Comrade-Sergei, and do apt-get install asterisk-pbx
[09:11] <utab> TheGateKeeper, thx but one more question
[09:11] <typhoid> fyrestrtr i've already installed them and mysql is running.. i can connect from command line but not from the mysqladmin
[09:11] <manopulus> Comrade-Sergei, as softphone can use kphone (kde) or www.sjlabs.com
[09:12] <Comrade-Sergei> manopulus softphone is it in the ubuntu repos?
[09:12] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: what user are you giving in mysqladmin?
[09:12] <poison> so anyone using mythtv?
[09:12] <kit^> has anyone iused and install last FM?
[09:12] <utab> TheGateKeeper, I have done backups and after I have resinstalled ubuntu all of my previouly installed programs will be available or not
[09:12] <marky> stray77 now it says i don't have permissions to view contents of "ntfs"
[09:12] <typhoid> fyrestrtr:  I've tried my main user account (in adm group) , as well as admin and root.. it doesn't like any of them =(
[09:13] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: by default, the only user allowed to access mysql is 'root' without any password.
[09:13] <stray77> sudo chmod 777 /media/ntfs
[09:13] <stray77> i think
[09:13] <stray77> but dont write to it
[09:13] <k0shi> Anyone know why I can inject traffic on my new Prism2 card?
[09:13] <fyrestrtr> just type mysql -u root -p -- and when it asks for a password, just hit enter.
[09:13] <stray77> or move files around
[09:13] <typhoid> fyrestrtr:  beautiful!   thank you kindly, that did the trick!
[09:13] <Comrade-Sergei> manopulus how bout wengo?
[09:14] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: best you create a password for that, and create a new user for your daily use.
[09:14] <Comrade-Sergei> ill try it
[09:14] <stray77> and checkout phpmyadmin
[09:14] <typhoid> fyrestrtr: rodger that!   it shall be done!
[09:14] <utab> after a back up and restore, all the previously installed programs are accesible or not
[09:14] <[2GP] KillerDemon> aahh
[09:15] <TheGateKeeper> utab: the default packages will be, but if you loose some then use this: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper, and I have got some usefull links here: http://za1012001.googlepages.com/home  should be a relatively easy thing to sort out
[09:15] <marky> stray77 now it says chmod: changing permissions of `/media/ntfs': Read-only file system
[09:15] <fyrestrtr> !ntfs > stray77
[09:15] <fyrestrtr> !ntfs > marky
[09:15] <k0shi> Can ANYONE here help me with a WIFI card?
[09:15] <marky> thanks i'll check that out
[09:16] <redphoenix1> a while ago i did a custom kernel install but after that install my wired network interface turned to "arp" and not eth0 and my wireless turned to ath0_ifrename. can somone help on how to get old interface names back?
[09:16] <TheGateKeeper> utab: if you are kubuntu (i.e.) then use the xine engine in amaroK, install libxine-extracodecs and w32codecs
[09:16] <stray77> whats the chmod for read only? 644?
[09:16] <TheGateKeeper> (i.e. KDE) ooops
[09:16] <krizzer> how do i add an option to grub to make a menu of os x and ubuntu
[09:16] <utab> TheGateKeeper, what are tha codecs for
[09:17] <haasteem> i updated from breezy to dapper last night, and now my sound is not working anymore... i believe it has something to do with pcmcia services... what might be the problem?
[09:17] <TheGateKeeper> utab: so you can play mp3 files etc etc
[09:17] <stray77> marky, sudo chmod 444 /media/ntfs
[09:17] <stray77> see if that works
[09:17] <utab> please TheGateKeeper, I am asking for programs like matlab and others like this
[09:18] <kjm> utab: You are looking for an equivalent to MatLab???
[09:18] <lamego> stray77, you can't write to an ntfs partition
[09:18] <crixxx> whats up with the servers of wiki ?
[09:18] <marky> i need to get my data out of a ntfs file system, my laptop is duel boot and the xp is knackered
[09:18] <[2GP] KillerDemon> there dead
[09:19] <[2GP] KillerDemon> wiki
[09:19] <[2GP] KillerDemon> :P
[09:19] <crixxx> whats the reason :)
[09:19] <marky> sudo chmod 444 /media/ntfs make it says chmod: changing permissions of `/media/ntfs': Read-only file system
[09:19] <[2GP] KillerDemon> i just said :P
[09:19] <oppN|RgX-[i] > i like cereal
[09:19] <TheGateKeeper> utab: how did you install matlab can't see it in the repos, did you add extra repos?
[09:20] <utab> lim, I have problems with my system and wondering whether after a backup and restore will I be able to use all the previously installed programs
[09:20] <[2GP] KillerDemon> but whats up with this :S
[09:20] <jrib> utab: octave is like matlab
[09:20] <[2GP] KillerDemon> [21:20]  <[2GP] KillerDemon> bla
[09:20] <[2GP] KillerDemon> #wikipedia Cannot send to channel
[09:20] <oppN|RgX-[i] > i like cereal
[09:20] <utab> TheGateKeeper, it is licensed
[09:20] <oppN|RgX-[i] > i like cereal
[09:20] <krizzer> how do i add an option to grub to make a menu of os x and ubuntu
[09:20] <kjm> TheGateKeeper : MatLab is a purchased software.  It is installed through CD.  Won't be in any repos.
[09:20] <fyrestrtr> marky: if you want to get the data *out* then you don't need write access.
[09:20] <fyrestrtr> marky: once the disk is mounted, just copy the files over.
[09:21] <TheGateKeeper> thanx kjm :-)
[09:21] <fyrestrtr> krizzer: there is no option to grub for that, you need to manually edit the menu.lst file.
[09:21] <lens_> sudo ./gtkorphan
[09:21] <Comrade-Sergei> thanks guys!
[09:21] <kjm> Utab : What is your issue with MatLab?  I've got it installed on all my boxes (OS X, solaris, ubuntu and Fedora...)
[09:21] <krizzer> yes that was what i was wondering how to do
[09:21] <utab> kjm, do you want to challenge your linux knowledge with an update problem
[09:21] <typhoid> when i'm downloading stuff for my ubunutu dapper..  are tarballs better than rpm packages?
[09:21] <krizzer> do i just add what volume it is under
[09:21] <TheGateKeeper> utab: ok yes you will need to reinstall that
[09:21] <lens_> sudo /.gtkorphan
[09:21] <snoops> I'm I'm looking for a text editing application which would allow me to 1) quickly write and do some text formating - lists, links, font, font size. 2) insert pictures easily. 3) being able to very quickly draw diagrams on top of inserted images, or just create a blank image and draw on that.
[09:21] <lens_> arghg.
[09:22] <marky> fyrestrtr thats what i'm trying to do, but i can't mount it , i don't know how, everything i tried from what peeps said in here so far hasn't worked
[09:22] <hector> AYUDENME CHINGADO
[09:22] <kjm> utab : I could try.  No guarantees though.....
[09:22] <snoops> anyway have any idea if such software exists?
[09:22] <hector> a instalar amsn
[09:22] <lens_> sorry, I'm out of it.
[09:22] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: don't *ever* download a rpm for ubuntu. Why are you downloading packages? Most stuff you'll need is already available in the repositories. See !software
[09:22] <TheGateKeeper> kjm: issue seems to be with the repos they all seem to cause errors for some reason
[09:22] <utab> kjm, I can not update my system
[09:22] <lamego> marky, the partition is already mounted
[09:22] <fyrestrtr> marky: okay, let me see if I can help you.
[09:22] <lamego> marky, sudo nautilus /media/ntfs
[09:22] <fyrestrtr> lamego: no
[09:22] <marky> its mounted
[09:23] <marky> i can't see anything inside it
[09:23] <utab> kjm, the problem is that i have generated sources.list from the generator
[09:23] <fyrestrtr> marky: umount /media/ntfs
[09:23] <marky> it says i don't have permision
[09:23] <kjm> utab : I really doubt that it is a matlab problem :).  What errors are you getting from apt-get?
[09:23] <lamego> you will need to change your fstab
[09:23] <lamego> marky, i said with "sudo"
[09:23] <lamego> anyway change it on fstab
[09:23] <fyrestrtr> marky: sudo umount /media/ntfs
[09:23] <typhoid> fyrestrtr: thanks =D   I only download tarballs when i can't find it with synaptic..
[09:23] <shawnr_> is there a way to "hide" the Templates folder in home so that Nautilus still sees it?
[09:23] <lamego> to be mounted with the proper mask/id
[09:23] <typhoid> !software
[09:23] <fyrestrtr> lamego: it has nothing to do with fstab.
[09:23] <ubotu> You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, apt-cache, the "apt:/" URL in KDE, or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com  -  Ubuntu has about 18000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways!
[09:23] <utab> kjm, you mean the update errors
[09:23] <kjm> yes
[09:23] <typhoid> !Synaptic
[09:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about Synaptic - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:23] <lamego> fyrestrtr, what is the problem ?
[09:24] <marky> ok done sudo umount /media/ntfs
[09:24] <fyrestrtr> marky: after you have done that, do this
[09:24] <marky> k
[09:24] <[2GP] KillerDemon> wtf
[09:24] <fyrestrtr> marky: sudo mount -t ntfs -o umask=0000 /dev/whatever /media/ntfs
[09:24] <lamego> fyrestrtr, thats the umask !
[09:24] <[2GP] KillerDemon> can somebody explain this

[09:26] <fyrestrtr> shawnr_: why do you want to hide it and then make it visible in nautilus? doesn't make sense.
[09:26] <lamego> anywa, sudo nautlis is even easier
[09:26] <amikron> anyone help ?
[09:26] <lamego> and would work
[09:26] <fyrestrtr> amikron: don't download and compile it.

[09:28] <utab> kjm, http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/breezy-security/main/source/Sources.gz: Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)
[09:28] <fyrestrtr> shawnr_: where did you get this information about the Templates folder? I don't have any folder like that.
[09:28] <kapace> how can i mount a ubuntu formatted hd in live ubuntu?
[09:29] <Trae> I installed SLED (Suse Linux Enterprise Desktop) the other day for grins on this laptop, and switcheed back to Ubuntu, of course, because it's better! :)   I was able to get XGL going on this laptop with no problems... (just clicked a button)  The chipset is:  Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller  anyone know of a howto that will let me get 3D stuff going so I can play a game like bzflag on mylaptop?
[09:29] <lamego> fyrestrtr, whats the differente between sudo and gksudo besides the graphical prompt ?
[09:29] <fyrestrtr> kapace: mount -t auto /dev/foo /some/where
[09:29] <fyrestrtr> lamego: the environment variables that each set.
[09:29] <lamego> ok :)
[09:29] <echostorm> incidently if anyone in here is responsible for automatix , my hats off to you.
[09:29] <echobinary> thanks man
[09:29] <kjm> utab : do you get this error when using apt-get install <package> from the CLI?
[09:29] <marky> lamego it won't mount
[09:29] <echobinary> j/k :)
[09:29] <fyrestrtr> Trae: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Video
[09:29] <lamego> marky, it does mount if you use the proper device name
[09:29] <Trae> (I personally don't care for compiz, so not interested in setting all that up)  Just want 3D stuff so I can play games
[09:30] <lamego> marky, sudo fdisk -l
[09:30] <Trae> fyrestrtr, k
[09:30] <shawnr_> fyrestrtr, if you go here [ go>Templates ]  from the nautilus file browser it will create it automatically. by default it doesn't exist
[09:30] <KrakensDen> Hi, I'm having a problem with my wireless card. It worked initially on my laptop, but today it stopped working
[09:30] <utab> kjm, lets try that with something
[09:30] <KrakensDen> I've reloaded the kernel module and the binary daemon
[09:30] <utab> kjm, I may install programs
[09:31] <fyrestrtr> shawnr_: mine is empty, so what do you want to do with this folder?
[09:31] <KrakensDen> but it doesn't show up under ifconfig or anything else
[09:31] <KrakensDen> I've grepped through dmesg, but there doesn't seem to be anything wrong
[09:31] <fyrestrtr> shawnr_: you want it to not show up in nautilus?
[09:31] <kjm> utab : Ya, pick a small program and try to install through apt-get.  At least we'll know if it is a prob. with your sources.list, or apt versus just a problem with synaptic.
[09:32] <shawnr_> fyrestrtr, you put black documents in there. like i have [ Bash Script.sh ]  in the folder. so when i right click i can select [ Create Document > Bash Script ]
[09:32] <fyrestrtr> shawnr_: okay, I get the purpose, but what do you want with hiding it?
[09:32] <echostorm> ok i actually got par files covered...great! that par program in the repository has a nice frontend called pypar on softpedia... still need a good joiner splitter though if anyone has any idea.
[09:32] <shawnr_> fyrestrtr, my goal is to 'hide' the folder because my home is very cluttered
[09:33] <kapace> can some1 guide me setuping xfree?
[09:33] <fyrestrtr> kapace: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg
[09:33] <Hexidigital_> shawnr_: why not just rename it ~/.Templates?
[09:33] <kapace> no like, configureing it
[09:33] <greyscale> Moment of trueth....
[09:33] <fyrestrtr> kapace: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:33] <greyscale> Will the server come back up in one piece or not?
[09:33] <kapace> ooh
[09:34] <shawnr_> Hexidigital_, because then Nautilus doesn't use it for templates then
[09:34] <haasteem> i updated from breezy to dapper last night, and now my sound is not working anymore... i believe it has something to do with pcmcia services... what might be the problem?
[09:34] <Hexidigital_> shawnr_: ah.. i misunderstood your objective
[09:34] <kapace>
[09:35] <marky> fyrestrtr right i can see in my ntfs file :) nearly there, not it says i can't write t
[09:35] <marky> to the usb 200g drive i don't have permission
[09:35] <fyrestrtr> marky: that's fine if you can't write to it, you can still read from it.
[09:36] <fyrestrtr> shawnr_: don't think that's possible.
[09:36] <lamego> marky, what type of partition is the usb drive ?
[09:36] <marky> i can read from the ntfs internal, but now i can't right to the usb 200gig drive
[09:36] <marky> same again ntfs
[09:36] <lamego> marky, so you cant write on it
[09:36] <lamego> you will need to reformat it to fat32
[09:36] <fyrestrtr> marky: oh geez -- you can't write to it without doing some special acrobatics.
[09:36] <TheGame> i have flash 8 installed in firefox
[09:36] <shawnr_> fyrestrtr, there has to be a way to edit what nautilus uses for certain dir
[09:36] <TheGame> but some sites still ask me to install it
[09:36] <fyrestrtr> marky: if you are only going to use it on ubuntu, format it with ext3
[09:36] <utab> kjm, your suggestion a small programs
[09:36] <TheGame> any1 know why
[09:37] <fyrestrtr> marky: if you want to share it, create two 100GB partitions using fat32
[09:37] <marky> ok i'll tyr
[09:37] <marky> try
[09:37] <jrib> TheGame: how did you install flash8?
[09:37] <TheGame> automatix
[09:37] <fyrestrtr> shawnr_: hrmm, try asking in ##gnome
[09:37] <TheGame> actually i think it was with easyubuntu
[09:37] <fyrestrtr> TheGame: do not recommend automatix in here.
[09:37] <kjm> utab : any success?
[09:37] <jrib> TheGame: there is no flash8 for linux though
[09:37] <TheGame> ya there is
[09:38] <TheGame> there isnt flash 9
[09:38] <jrib> fyrestrtr: he was just answering my question :)
[09:38] <greyscale> yes there is.
[09:38] <utab> kjm, suggest me sth to download small
[09:38] <greyscale> Flash 9 is out on the windows and mac platforms
[09:38] <fyrestrtr> jrib: we don't like people using automatix
[09:38] <TheGame> right
[09:38] <greyscale> check out adobe.com
[09:38] <TheGame> fyrestrtr:  i used easyubuntu
[09:38] <TheGame> does adobe have deb packages
[09:38] <sizzam> is there a good place to find all known issues with the 64bit kernel?
[09:38] <greyscale> ...
[09:38] <greyscale> no.
[09:38] <kapace> plz help me load my hd...
[09:38] <kapace> im such a noob
[09:38] <etsme> hi room, well strange question but honestly i m trying to find the option through which i can see the user's present in the room
[09:38] <greyscale> They send flash 7 with a nice little installer.
[09:39] <fyrestrtr> sizzam: launchpad
[09:39] <kjm> utab : oh.  ummmm.  $apt-get update;apt-get install emacs
[09:39] <Papagena> How do I install Ubuntu onto a computer with no CD or floppy drive? That is, the only way to transfer information to it is through network and by removing its HDD, enclosing it, and putting stuff on it from another computer. Can I, say, create bootable partition on the HDD that would start a netinstall?
[09:39] <greyscale> kapace, if you're a lame newb, try windows.
[09:39] <sizzam> fyrestrtr: is that a website?
[09:39] <greyscale> Its much easier ;3
[09:39] <kapace> im tired of windows
[09:39] <etsme> oh one thing more i m using XChat IRC
[09:39] <fyrestrtr> sizzam: its the bug tracker.
[09:39] <greyscale> get the CD burned then
[09:39] <fyrestrtr> sizzam: bugs.ubuntu.com I think will take you there.
[09:39] <greyscale> get the iso from ubuntu and burn it to CD
[09:39] <maria> does anyone know if theres anything for ubuntu which can put music on my netmd minidisc player?
[09:39] <kjm> greyscale : That's no bloody way to promote new users to try linux you rude bastard.
[09:39] <utab> kjm, errors but my main is that I can not update the system
[09:40] <greyscale> kjm, hehe, but its truethful ^^
[09:40] <Geoffrey2> greyscale, I've gone to the adobe site...the latest version of flash they advertise for Linux is Flash 7
[09:40] <sizzam> fyrestrtr: thanks.  if i told you that i was thinking about installing 64bit, what would you tell me?
[09:40] <fyrestrtr> Papagena: there are many ways to install ubuntu (including net install).
[09:40] <fyrestrtr> !installation > Papagena
[09:40] <greyscale> Geoffrey2, Thats because adobe sucks ^^
[09:40] <kjm> utab : have you tried pinging the servers to make sure they are up?
[09:40] <utab> how
[09:40] <greyscale> who?
[09:40] <greyscale> why?
[09:40] <greyscale> What?
[09:40] <greyscale> All very valid questions
[09:40] <echobinary> Where?
[09:40] <utab> kjm, how
[09:40] <greyscale> if we knew the context
[09:40] <kjm> $ping <server name>
[09:40] <Geoffrey2> greyscale, oh, I thought you were saying there was indeed a version 8 for Linux out...never mind :)
[09:40] <fyrestrtr> sizzam: if you have a dire need for it, then go for it. I would only do it on a dev machine, not on a 'daily use' machine. As some things (like flash) don't work too well.
[09:41] <greyscale> Geoffrey2, Noooo... adobe aren;t that groovy
[09:41] <etsme> can anyone guide me which IRC chat program to use ? i mean which has more features than XChat IRC ?
[09:41] <sizzam> fyrestrtr: gotcha, sounds like the same types of issues that were happening in breezy64 are still happening in dapper64
[09:41] <ynef> etsme: I like irssi
[09:41] <Geoffrey2> greyscale, actually, I think it's "they're not terribly linux literate"
[09:41] <fyrestrtr> sizzam: if I had a 64bit machine, I would go for it -- but I know enough about linux to try to fix things when they break.
[09:41] <DJAdmiral> hey, have the freenode issues been fixed yet?
[09:41] <oppN|RgX-[i] > hey, i restarted and everything seems to be working fine
[09:41] <fyrestrtr> sizzam: its still a bit in the air.
[09:41] <oppN|RgX-[i] > im installing the updates and its not from the cd
[09:41] <etsme> ynef >> which repository to add for it to get ?
[09:42] <utab> kjm, can you give the command
[09:42] <DJAdmiral> the freenode issues been fixed yet?
[09:42] <ynef> etsme: I think it's installed by default, type "irssi" in a terminal window
[09:42] <etsme> ok
[09:42] <fyrestrtr> DJAdmiral: yes, I think so.
[09:42] <etsme> thanks
[09:42] <kjm> utab: $ping be.archive.ubuntu.com
[09:42] <DJAdmiral> fyrestrtr: okay, thanks
[09:42] <greyscale> Geoffrey2, But "Adobe are ungroovy" was easier on the brain than "Adobe aren't terrably linux literate"
[09:43] <kjm> utab : and it seems that the server is not responding to ping.  So, it would seem that this repository is down.  Try again in a few hours.
[09:43] <kapace> plz help me mount my ubuntu hda
[09:43] <greyscale> lol. Just wrote "adobe" instead of "admin"
[09:43] <ynef> etsme: you're welcome -- if you need a particular feature, odds are that you'll be able to find what you're looking for -- irssi can use plugins written in perl
[09:43] <greyscale> kapace, have you even installed it yet?
[09:43] <utab> kjm, I have tried many times with different country codes but no use
[09:43] <crimsun> haasteem: what sound hardware do you have?
[09:44] <kjm> utab : Try restoring your sources.list to the original.
[09:44] <fyrestrtr> utab: tracepath be.archive.ubuntu.com
[09:44] <Geoffrey2> greyscale, true..true :)
[09:44] <fanfan> salut

[09:45] <utab> fyrestrtr n reply
[09:45] <kapace> why?
[09:45] <greyscale> Oh!
[09:45] <kjm> utab : these errors you are getting seem to be a result of a failure to download the package list from the server.   Most logical reason I can think of is that the server is down.....beyond that I have no idea.
[09:45] <kapace> it doesn't work if i go to hd ubuntu
[09:45] <etsme> ok thanks
[09:46] <utab> kjm, German servers are on

[09:46] <bigfuzzyjesus> will dillo run "ok" on xubuntu?
[09:46] <Geoffrey2> oh, speaking of Adobe...I noticed the version of Adobe Reader I have is 7.0.1, while Adobe's lastest version for Linux is 7.0.8....any particular reason I'd need to upgrade to that newer version?
[09:46] <greyscale> "sudo mkdir /media/harddisk" and then "sudo mount /dev/hda1 /media/harddisk"
[09:46] <kjm> utab, try restoring your sources list and retry updating with synaptic....use http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic to restore.

[09:47] <ynef> TheGame: do you want to turn it off when you have a mouse plugged in? that's usually an option in the computer's BIOS
[09:47] <TheGame> hmm
[09:47] <fyrestrtr> bigfuzzyjesus: no, I don't.
[09:47] <cyrilnmaddy> hello everybody

[09:48] <jrib> finalbeta: you can symlink libvte.so.4 to libvte.so.9.  It seems to be a bug in the updates.  There is a thread on the forums

I then proceeded to install my NetGear WG511 v2 card with ndiswrapper and the drivers from the cd. this worked and the LED's came on, but when i went to configure it, the changes never affected the card. the ESSID was empty after configuring.

[09:52] <kapace> hmm freenode must not be letting you pm me.,.
[09:52] <Rambo3> kevin try  iwpriv to set it up
[09:52] <haasteem> i updated from breezy to dapper last night, and now my sound is not working anymore... i believe it has something to do with pcmcia services... what might be the problem?

[09:52] <Papagena> How do I write an ISO image onto a harddrive partition?
[09:53] <greyscale> you dont
[09:53] <greyscale> Papagena, you burn the ISO to a CD
[09:53] <kevin> will do Rambo3, i'l let you know of the result in a minuite.
[09:53] <greyscale> and then reboot with that CD
[09:53] <kjm> utab : I've got to run.  But, I will be back in #ubuntu @ 7:30 if you are still having issues.
[09:53] <ynef> Papagena: using dd, but what do you want to accomplish?
[09:53] <lasindi_lcps> Hi all, I'm trying to connect to a Groupwise email server using Evolution, but everytime I log in it tells me it's "unable to authenticate" and prompts me again. I've tried as much as I can to configure it similarly to how I have the Groupwise client set up on my Windows box. Any ideas about configurations I should try?
[09:53] <greyscale> and assuming its first trying the CD to boot with, the ubuntu installer will fire up
[09:53] <buddhalover> lamego. i used terminal to make the thing.. i think i have the source somewhere.
[09:53] <fyrestrtr> kapace: you need to be identified to nickserv to send and received private messages on freenode.
[09:53] <lamego> buddhalover, patches are instaled over the source code
[09:53] <Comrade-Sergei> ok skype isnt letting me make outgoing calls like it should and its def a linux prob cause it works in windows
[09:53] <kapace> i am
[09:53] <kapace> o think
[09:53] <greyscale> fyrestrtr, FFS thats annoying
[09:53] <vdepizzol> Can I use gtk+ themes in motif apps?
[09:54] <evol-pusher> hey guys.....total nub when it comes to non-MS op sys's.  Are windows-based apps good to go using ubuntu?
[09:54] <fyrestrtr> greyscale: what is?
[09:54] <Papagena> ynef: I want to install Ubuntu on a computer with no CD or floppy, but one whose HDD I can extract and use with another computer.
[09:54] <greyscale> Needing that just for PM's
[09:54] <finalbeta> jrib, thnx found the thread sollution was ( sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libvte.so.9 /usr/lib/libvte.so.4 ) is there no "official" place for bugs like that? users just have to figure it out where the sollution is?
[09:54] <Papagena> ynef: So I want to put the Ubuntu install on the HDD and use it from there.
[09:54] <lamego> evol-pusher, the best apps to be using on ubuntu are linux apps :)
[09:54] <kapace> can you post it here or is it too big
[09:54] <ynef> Papagena: I don't think that's going to work, sadly
[09:54] <greyscale> kapace, do this in XCHAT: "/join #grey"
[09:54] <evol-pusher> lamego, right, but i was wondering about games and stuff, or do i need to do dual-boot for that?
[09:54] <fyrestrtr> evol-pusher: most people use linux apps on linux, but if there is something you need from windows and there is no linux equivalent, you can use wine to run it. Wine is a windows compatibility layer for linux.
[09:54] <jrib> finalbeta: check launchpad to see if a bug has been filed, watch the bot:
[09:54] <Papagena> ynef: Why not?
[09:54] <jrib> !bug
[09:54] <ubotu> If you find a bug in Ubuntu, please report it at http://bugs.ubuntu.com
[09:55] <uber_mort> Hey all, quick question.  Is there any file extension in Ubuntu that will allow me to run something (a python script) without having to ./run in terminal?  I'm writing a configuration utility and I want users to just be able to double click it and use rather than having to open in a terminal.
[09:55] <lamego> finalbeta, did you had the problem using the ubuntu dapper official repositories ?
[09:55] <vdepizzol> Can I use gtk+ themes in motif apps?
[09:55] <CmdrBatGuano> gnome-sound-redorder doesn't want to redord from my Edirol UA-1X
[09:55] <Comrade-Sergei> HELP! ok skype isnt letting me make outgoing calls like it should and its def a linux prob cause it works in windows
[09:55] <Papagena> ynef: Well, can I somehow write something bootable to the HDD that will start a network install?
[09:55] <fyrestrtr> uber_mort: if you set the execute permissions, people can just double click it, and choose 'run'.
[09:55] <Comrade-Sergei> Papagena cmos?
[09:55] <finalbeta> lamego, I have added repo's for compiz. But the update ones are standard
[09:55] <ynef> Papagena: because writing an ISO file to a harddrive will only work if that ISO file came from a harddrive that is practically identical with the one you're writing it to
[09:55] <fyrestrtr> Comrade-Sergei: this is not the skype help channel :)
[09:56] <jsharpe> in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf there is no Directory Root that has /var/www/ as the root......where is that config located if it's not there?
[09:56] <uber_mort> fyrestrtr: There is no run option, only open which opens it in a text editor.  The exectute bit is set too.
[09:56] <TheGame> ynef: i dont have that setting in my bios
[09:56] <Papagena> Comrade-Sergei: How do you mean CMOS?
[09:56] <ynef> Papagena: you can do the actual install instead -- ubuntu will auto configure your devices when you boot up in the intended computer
[09:56] <Comrade-Sergei> fyrestrtr find one then
[09:56] <fyrestrtr> uber_mort: hrmm, on my system, it asks to open or run.
[09:56] <jrib> finalbeta: it may be compiz, I think someone in the thread mentioned that.  And I haven't received any updates for the troubled packages
[09:56] <Warbo> uber_mort: File extension?  The firewall is managed with iptables (in the command line), firestarter (gui, can also setup connection sharing) or shorewall (web interface)
[09:57] <Comrade-Sergei> er lan
[09:57] <santa99> !iptable
[09:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about iptable - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:57] <ynef> TheGame: hmm -- is the mouse PS/2 or USB? perhaps you can find somewhere in xorg.conf that can disable it
[09:57] <kjm> utab - one last shot in the dark......try resetting your router
[09:57] <sergio-me> hello
[09:57] <Comrade-Sergei> FurryNemesis no ufotunly
[09:57] <Papagena> ynef: So you are saying: extract HDD, put it in computer with CD, start Ubuntu install, when it asks to restart, shut down and remove HDD, replace in computer with no CD, resume install?
[09:57] <TheGame> ive tried xorg.conf but i cant get it to work
[09:57] <FurryNemesis> damn
[09:57] <uber_mort> Warbo: Well I'll take any solution I can get.  I just need it to run without having to open a terminal.  I'm trying to bring complete newbies over to Linux and I don't want their first experience to include a lot of terminal.  No use scaring em away early ;)
[09:57] <TheGame> theres a wiki online but when i try it it doesnt work
[09:57] <utab> kjm, how
[09:57] <sergio-me> i installed lots of lots of packages for grtting fonts, and i srill get errors
[09:57] <lamego> uber_mort, you could create a debian package to distribute your script
[09:58] <fyrestrtr> uber_mort: you can write a small wrapper in python that does it.
[09:58] <Comrade-Sergei> FurryNemesis i tried werba or what ever and they want 2 eur and i cant find one that works for land lines with a gui of debian based
[09:58] <sergio-me> i installed lots of lots of packages for getting fonts, and i still get errors
[09:58] <sergio-me> when converingfiles with fhostscript
[09:58] <fyrestrtr> uber_mort: fwiw, if you get rid of the extension, and set the execute bit, it should work.
[09:58] <Warbo> uber_mort: Double clicking an exectuable text file usually says "Do you want to display this file or run it in a terminal?"
[09:58] <ynef> Papagena: well, yeah -- except that it dosn't need to resume the install (unless it's changed for Dapper, don't really know) -- but yes, that's my suggestion
[09:58] <sergio-me> when converting files with ghostscript :'(
[09:58] <FurryNemesis> Comrade-Sergei, double damn
[09:58] <uber_mort> fyrestrtr:  How would I go about doing that?  The script is written in python already, and I'
[09:58] <uber_mort> have tried removing the extension.
[09:59] <Comrade-Sergei> FurryNemesis got a free one for land lines/
[09:59] <fyrestrtr> uber_mort: compile it as a binary.
[09:59] <ynef> Papagena: to make sure that the install doesn't do anything to the harddrive that is already in the computer with the CD, disconnect it so that only the intended HDD will be touched
[09:59] <uber_mort> Warbo: I'm trying to make it work in both ubuntu/kubuntu.  It seems as though KDE decides for you :-p
[09:59] <Warbo> uber_mort: I assume it starts with a "#!/usr/bin/env python" or "#!/usr/bin/python" line
[09:59] <buddhalover> lamego: how do i install the patch over the source code? does this happen prior to config and make?
[09:59] <uber_mort> warbo: Aye.  Fyrestrtr: I'll try that
[09:59] <vdepizzol> Can I use gtk+ themes in motif apps?
[09:59] <lamego> buddhalover, there is a debian package there, why are using the source ?
[09:59] <sergio-me> lamego: portugus?
[09:59] <utab> kjm, I am on a network at a universsity
[09:59] <Warbo> !repeat > vdepizzol
[09:59] <lamego> seraphim, yes, but not here, try #ubuntu.pt
[09:59] <uber_mort> thanks for the suggestions, be back to complain if it doesn't work ;)
[09:59] <lamego> ops -pt i mean
[10:00] <fyrestrtr> lamego: because one doesn't use debian packages in ubuntu, unless you like a broken system.
[10:00] <ynef> cyrilnmaddy: if you are not a registered user at the chat server, you cannot recieve private messages
[10:00] <buddhalover> lamego, i used the deb package i believe but i installed it through terminal.
[10:00] <fyrestrtr> buddhalover: what are you installing?
[10:00] <profoX`> Where can I find gdm's log ? .xsession-errors didn't give what I expected
[10:00] <lamego> buddhalover, so, why do you need the patch ? the debian patch already includes the patch...
[10:00] <Comrade-Sergei> anyone know a free program for ubuntu with a gui that can call landlines
[10:00] <nemik> network-manager applet on dapper for me won't see my wireless card, what is wrong?
[10:01] <fyrestrtr> profoX`: /var/log/gdm/
[10:01] <Fernand1> Hello
[10:01] <profoX`> fyrestrtr: oh.. right.. its a folder :) k
[10:01] <fyrestrtr> !wifi > nemik
[10:01] <ynef> nemik: is the card working correctly and just not showing up in the applet, or is it not working at all?
[10:01] <marky> yay it working, i managed to format another drive in a machine i got on my network to fat32 and paste 30gig down the hallway!
[10:01] <buddhalover> i already installed and its working already... i installed last-exit. a last fm player... the patch supposedly would allow me to save songs...
[10:01] <FurryNemesis> hahaha
[10:01] <marky> 11 hours left!
[10:01] <FurryNemesis> marky, nice
[10:01] <dockane> hi all... i recognized mixing sound from different applications is a common problem. i would like to use enemy territory and teamspeak parallel. my soundcard is Creative Labs SB Live! EMU10k1 (rev 08) which i read is a hardware-mixing capable card. the howtos always describe howto get a software mixer started but what about my card?
[10:01] <buddhalover> the patch part i don't know how to do...
[10:01] <nemik> ynef: card is working great i'm connected now. just not showing up on the applet
[10:02] <Fernand1> does anyone know of a 'good' downloading program(like bittorrent, I guess) that can be downloaded from the Synaptic Package Manager?
[10:02] <marky> what a nightmare
[10:02] <FurryNemesis> Fernand1, bittorrent should be a default proggy for Dapper
[10:02] <FurryNemesis> shouldn't it?
[10:02] <buddhalover> lamego: i still can't save songs...
[10:02] <ynef> nemik: sorry if this is a stupid question, but you have tried to click on the drop down menu, right? ;-)
[10:02] <fyrestrtr> Fernand1: bittorrent is available already in dapper. Just double click any torrent file. Other programs include azureus, freeloader and frostwire.
[10:03] <marky> all because my xp collapsed on this duel boot laptop, lucky i got ubuntu and you patient guys to help me or i'd be shagged
[10:03] <Kyja> imagine if we only could get the wifi to go the full 54Mb ha
[10:03] <Papagena> ynef: Okay. Thanks. And you're sure the install doesn't need to do any hardware-specific configurations? Like processor-specific package installations or something? The computer with the CD drive has different hardware.
[10:03] <santa99> could anyone tell me a HOWTO for iptables on Ubuntu
[10:03] <buddhalover> Fernand1: Azureus or Bittornado
[10:03] <Fernand1> FurryNemesis: My ubuntu did not come with any downloading program.
[10:03] <Femoig> !search
[10:03] <Papagena> ynef: But, they are both i386 systems.
[10:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about search - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:03] <Comrade-Sergei> anyone know a free program for ubuntu with a gui that can call landlines
[10:03] <Warbo> MLDonkey and GTK-Gnutella are P2P apps as well (MLDonkey can do bittorrent)
[10:03] <haasteem> i updated from breezy to dapper last night, and now my sound is not working anymore... i believe it has something to do with pcmcia services... what might be the problem?
[10:03] <fyrestrtr> santa99: install firestarter or shorewall
[10:03] <ynef> Papagena: nope -- ubuntu by default installs a kernel that works on 486 and up (I think 386 support was dropped a while ago)
[10:03] <greyscale> lol, kapace's problem was they were using Ubuntu 4 of all things
[10:03] <nemik> ynef: hehe, yes but it only has enable networking checked and nothing else.
[10:03] <santa99> fyrestrtr, I would prefer writing the iptables myself
[10:03] <buddhalover> lamego: if the patch is already included then how do I save the songs? how do i apply the patch?
[10:04] <Papagena> ynef: Okay. Cool. Thanks.
[10:04] <ynef> Papagena: you're welcome -- good luck
[10:04] <fyrestrtr> santa99: any iptables tutorial would do then. There is nothing exotic about iptables in ubuntu.
[10:04] <santa99> fyrestrtr, ok
[10:04] <Comrade-Sergei> anyone know a free program for ubuntu with a gui that can call landlines
[10:04] <marky> big shout outs to fyrestrtr and lamego you guys are the  best
[10:05] <lamego> buddhalover, you will need to get the source, apply the patch, and build it
[10:05] <ynef> nemik: hmm -- well, then I can't help -- I was hoping for a "help me get my network working" kind of question :)
[10:05] <santa99> fyrestrtr, do you know how i can determine if iptables are activated in my kernel
[10:05] <nemik> ynef: no problem, i'll look through the docs
[10:05] <fyrestrtr> santa99: they are activated by default.
[10:05] <Kyja> Comrade-Sergei: have you tried doing a search on the pachage managers or at sourceforge?
[10:05] <santa99> fyrestrtr, well thx
[10:05] <Comrade-Sergei> come on and help me already! anyone know a free program for ubuntu with a gui that can call land lines?
[10:05] <fyrestrtr> santa99: unless you compiled a custom kernel and specifically chose to not enable iptables, you have iptables.
[10:05] <Comrade-Sergei> kyja what do i search for
[10:05] <buddhalover> lamego: oh so i must start over again...
[10:05] <lamego> buddhalover, have you installed version ubuntu2 ?
[10:06] <Kyja> try useing landline
[10:06] <santa99> fyrestrtr, I have a default kernel running
[10:06] <Comrade-Sergei> you got to love the user frendly ness ofwindows
[10:06] <buddhalover> yes ubuntu2
[10:06] <fyrestrtr> santa99: then you have iptables.
[10:06] <santa99> fyrestrtr, ok thx
[10:06] <Comrade-Sergei> Kyja nothing
[10:06] <bam__> Hi I was wondering if there was any keyboard shortcut to change dekstops?
[10:06] <goudkov> huy guys, is there a way to list the hardware specs of ram? like frquency and the number of dimms?
[10:06] <uber_mort> fyrestrtr: I just compiled the python script and now it just says that it can't be read.
[10:07] <Warbo> bam__: alt-left/right
[10:07] <buddhalover> last-exit is running well. but no saving of songs. lamego.. so i uninstall... find source... apply patch ? (copy paste?) then compile?
[10:07] <fyrestrtr> bam__: ctrl+alt+left and aright arrow keys
[10:07] <Warbo> ctrl-alt sorry
[10:07] <gbauman> hmm, Quake runs really slow under xgl
[10:07] <nox-Hand> Can anyone help me get mpd to work? I just cant get it working :(
[10:07] <gbauman> everything else is speedy
[10:07] <ynef> bam__: you can configure that yourself, at System->Preferences->Keyboard shortcuts
[10:07] <fyrestrtr> gbauman: that's expected.
[10:07] <lamego> buddhalover, yes
[10:07] <bam__> KDE
[10:07] <FurryNemesis> gbauman, have you tried switching back to metacity? It worked for me in tremulous
[10:07] <lamego> buddhalover, not copy paste, you need to use the patch utility
[10:07] <finalbeta> Someone who can help me use my TV card inside VLC? It works fine in TVtime, but I can't get it to work in VLC :/
[10:07] <lamego> to apply the patch
[10:07] <gbauman> fyrestrtr: But I disabled indirection for fullscreen windows :D
[10:07] <Fernand1> I have a question.
[10:07] <Comrade-Sergei> Kyja?
[10:08] <buddhalover> patch utility? lamego.
[10:08] <Kyja> Comrade-Sergei: in my opinion windows did not get friendly until xp and that was a moma lisa smile.
[10:08] <ynef> Fernand1: someone might have an answer.
[10:08] <Fernand1> Where/how can I get the Universe/Multiverse repositories?
[10:08] <Kyja> mona
[10:08] <buddhalover> how do i use the patch utility onto the source?
[10:08] <fyrestrtr> gbauman: with xgl running, you are not using direct rendering, which will affect games. Use xinit if you want to run a game with acceleration.
[10:08] <ynef> !repositories
[10:08] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[10:08] <Comrade-Sergei> Kyja i think it was since 98 due to every thing was compatible to it
[10:08] <gbauman> fyrestrtr: roger
[10:08] <ynef> !repositories > Fernand1
[10:08] <lamego> buddhalover, path -p1 < file.diff
[10:08] <Comrade-Sergei> so what do we got for free land line callers.
[10:09] <Fernand1> thank you
[10:09] <fyrestrtr> Comrade-Sergei: a freakin' phone.
[10:09] <ynef> Fernand1: you're welcome -- the Wiki has tons of great info
[10:09] <Kyja> Comrade-Sergei: You may be right =]  anyhow. sourceforge is an excelent place to look for open source projects of all kinds.
[10:09] <Comrade-Sergei> NO i have no WIRELESS PHONE TO USE IN MY ROOM
[10:09] <FurryNemesis> argh'
[10:09] <Comrade-Sergei> id like to make a private call once in a while
[10:09] <buddhalover> lamego: i can't patch the already installed program? uninstall and recompile is the best move?
[10:10] <fyrestrtr> buddhalover: you patch sources, not binary files.
[10:10] <lamego> buddhalover, you can't patch the installed program, the installed program is a binary, patches are source code patches
[10:10] <lamego> so yes, uninstall, patch and compile
[10:10] <uber_mort> So, anyone have a suggestion on how to make a script execute rather than open in text editor?
[10:10] <buddhalover> fyrestrtr lamego: okay. thank you both for the help. :)
[10:10] <hangfire> chmod -x
[10:11] <buddhalover> i will try my best to make it work.   I need something so that the user won't have to toy with system settings right off the bat.  I want this to be as simple as humanly possible to use.
[10:11] <hangfire> skype or wengo

[10:12] <hangfire> comrade sergei> skype or wengophone
[10:12] <buddhalover> hello ubuntu
[10:12] <marky> hi ubuntu
[10:12] <Comrade-Sergei> hangfire doesnt wengo want 2 EUR
[10:12] <fyrestrtr> uber_mort: package it as a .deb -- then when they double click it, it will 'install'
[10:12] <ubuntu> hi marky
[10:12] <FurryNemesis> hangfire, he tried those
[10:12] <lamego> uber_mort, you can do that by creating a .deb
[10:12] <Kyja> Comrade-Sergei: realy, have you looked on sourceforge ???
[10:12] <ubuntu> hi buddhalover
[10:12] <Comrade-Sergei> hangfire and skype wont call for some reason
[10:12] <finalbeta> Someone who can help me use my TV card inside VLC? It works fine in TVtime, but I can't get it to work in VLC :/
[10:12] <lamego> like i have told some hundred lines above :P
[10:13] <hangfire> skype will call free if the other person has skype on their pc
[10:13] <Comrade-Sergei> Kyja im stil trying to find sourceforge (noob)

[10:13] <Fernand1> I had a problem while installing the Universe/Multiverse
[10:13] <uber_mort> fyrestrtr / lamego: Its just a simple configuration utility to make WPA_supplicant work on my campus network.  I need it to run rather than install per say.  Its interactive.
[10:13] <Fernand1> can anyone help me?
[10:13] <Comrade-Sergei> i got VA software
[10:13] <Fernand1> I followed the rules that !repositories gave me
[10:14] <Kyja> http://sourceforge.net/
[10:14] <fyrestrtr> uber_mort: slap a gtk interface around it.
[10:14] <hangfire> comrad sergei> also try Dialpad
[10:14] <fyrestrtr> uber_mort: you can't have 'interaction' without expecting the user to do something.
[10:14] <ubuntu> fyrestrtr:  hello
[10:14] <uber_mort> fyrestrtr: It is graphical.
[10:14] <Flannel> Fernand1: what problems you having?
[10:14] <Toran> Hey, does anyone know if there is a way to sync tracks played by my ipod to last.fm?
[10:14] <lamego> uber_mort, the .deb would create a shortcut than can be doubleclicked, is not that you are trying to achieve ?
[10:14] <stormzoeker> What is good tv software for a haupage pvr150?
[10:14] <Comrade-Sergei> what is dial pad hangfire
[10:14] <hangfire> its yahoos free phone

[10:15] <uber_mort> lamego: I guess that would work.  I just want them to double click the script, get the gui window, fill in the fields and be done :P
[10:15] <Kyja> Comrade-Sergei: also here is the sstart of all networking projects http://sourceforge.net/softwaremap/trove_list.php?form_cat=150
[10:15] <Comrade-Sergei> hangfire will it work in ubuntu and is it free and will it call landlines
[10:15] <ubuntu> any1 here works with pgp tools?
[10:15] <koen> Hi all
[10:15] <fyrestrtr> uber_mort: hrmm -- I have one hint for you. Look at the theme-switch app at the compiz.net forums, it a .py script that doesn't popup any prompts.
[10:15] <uber_mort> lamego: Its not really something they'll need to use a lot or anything.
[10:15] <Fernand1> Flannel: As I followed the rules in the link that !repositories gave me to install the Universe/Multiverse repositories, I got an error right when I was reloading the Synaptic Package Manager.
[10:15] <ubuntu> use them to encrypt mails
[10:15] <hangfire> yes it calls landlines, not sure if it works in ubunut
[10:15] <lamego> uber_mort, well, with the -dev it would be, click on the web link to install it, then click on the shortcute to run it...
[10:15] <lamego> shortcut
[10:15] <kevin> Rambo3, do you mind if i pm you?
[10:16] <Fernand1> Flannel: I'm putting the error on the pastebin right now so you can see.
[10:16] <Flannel> Fernand1: alright.  Can you pastebin your sources.list? (run: gedit /etc/apt/sources.list )
[10:16] <uber_mort> fyrestrtr: Oooh, thanks.  Is it the one Quinn wrote for GCWD?
[10:16] <koen> Hey, my colors went down all of the sudden. I don't know why. I guess it's an update or something. Reboot didn't work.
[10:16] <fyrestrtr> uber_mort: can't you just have your users hit alt+f2 type one line, and hit enter? How dumb are your users?
[10:16] <fyrestrtr> uber_mort: yeah.
[10:16] <catfox> hi all, does anyone know why i get this error when trying to compile tcl: /configure: line 7653: syntax error near unexpected token `)'

[10:16] <sid> Debian sarge has 14 discs, Debian etch will have about 20 discs. What does Ubuntu do with all the packages that can be installed with multiverse/universe. Are they on a disc somewhere for people that don't have internet connections?
[10:17] <finalbeta> When I want to use my TV card inside VLC : "[00000325]  v4l demuxer error: chroma selection failed

[10:17] <uber_mort> fyrestrtr: I'm assuming that they're mentally handicapped.  I'm trying to get people who have never even heard of Linux running it
[10:17] <fyrestrtr> catfox: any particular reason you are compiling tcl?
[10:17] <lamego> catfox, because that configure script is broken
[10:17] <Fernand1> Flannel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21016 that's the error. I'm going to pastebin my source.list now.
[10:17] <lamego> catfox, you can install tcl from synaptic
[10:17] <catfox> fyrestrtr: i need threading support for a project
[10:17] <catfox> lamego: it isn't compiled with threading enabled, so need to build from source
[10:17] <kit^> Hasanyone used Last FM here and isntalled it etc?
[10:18] <catfox> lamego: do you know whats 'broken' about the script, so i can look at fixing it
[10:18] <koen> kit^: I have.
[10:18] <ALIanS> hi people
[10:18] <lamego> catfox, does it have a configure.ac or configure.in ?
[10:19] <kit^> koen: did u download the targz of Qt from the trolltech site and then got it all working. Also is Last FM with having?
[10:19] <catfox> lamego: configure.in
[10:19] <lamego> or well, point me to the source link
[10:19] <lamego> catfox, that means you can regenreate configure with autoconf
[10:19] <buddhalover> lamego: can't find the program in synaptic... how do i uninstall?
[10:19] <catfox> lamego: i'll have a go, cheers
[10:19] <Fernand1> Flannel: Here is my sources.list: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21018
[10:19] <lamego> there could be also an autogen.sh script or similar
[10:19] <lamego> bye :)
[10:20] <lamego> buddhalover, if it is not on synaptic, it is not installed, at least not using a debian package...
[10:20] <koen> kit^: I just downloaded the binaries.
[10:20] <ALIanS> people what it s country server ?
[10:20] <Comrade-Sergei> hangfire dial pad is not free

[10:22] <Comrade-Sergei> lol tabman
[10:22] <fyrestrtr> tabman: they already published their extensions to jabber that allow voice.
[10:22] <tjb891> will opening a port on my NAT for bittorent make ubuntu vulnerable?
[10:22] <crazy_penguin> Good night to all! Sleep well!
[10:22] <looktj> hi i converted to ubuntu christian edition

[10:22] <tabman> fyrestrtr: how can I voice ? using Gaim ?
[10:22] <fyrestrtr> tjb891: vulnerable to porn downloads, sure.
[10:22] <ubuntu> tabman:  u ant
[10:22] <Flannel> Fernand1: alright, If you go here: http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic  You'll see some commands at the top, with some gpg commands, you'll need to do that (add the keys for that repository).  You'll have to generate a sources.list from that page for your repositories (including CA country code and stuff) to get the keys though.
[10:22] <ubuntu> cant
[10:22] <haasteem> ubuntu: hi
[10:22] <fyrestrtr> tabman: ekiga.
[10:22] <ALIanS> sombody tolk with me & =)

[10:24] <Flannel> Just hang tight guys, this should be over soon
[10:24] <koen> kit^: That is a default place to put your own programs. If you want for all your user to use it extract is in /opt/
[10:24] <Seveas> split splat
[10:24] <bigfuzzyjesus> NETSLPIT!!!!!
[10:24] <haasteem> ubuntu: hmm... there is something wrong with that also i think
[10:24] <Comrade-Sergei> hey its seveas!

[10:24] <finalbeta> Where do I get v4l-info ?
[10:25] <fyrestrtr> Phoul: normal us 104 key
[10:25] <fyrestrtr> tabman: I don't know how compatible it is with wine.
[10:25] <kit^> koen: how come not in /usr/share?
[10:25] <Zambezi> Seveas, There you are! I've been looking for you.
[10:25] <buddhalover> lamego: it exists in my comp. i didn't unpack it... i used the terminal...
[10:25] <ALIanS> what people is on the channal ???
[10:25] <ALIanS> whats ?
[10:25] <Zambezi> Seveas, I tried to connect, but it said SSL wasn't activated.
[10:25] <tabman> fyrestrtr: ok anywayz one can always try, I just came to know that there exists a software like WINE, it seems to be pretty cool
[10:25] <Seveas> Zambezi, connect where?
[10:25] <haasteem> ubuntu: i think the cause is that just before the end of the upgrade process, there was an error and i had to abort the process
[10:25] <koen> kit^: If you want that is allright with me.
[10:25] <lamego> buddhalover, how did you installed it ?
[10:25] <lamego> which was the command ?
[10:26] <fyrestrtr> tabman: look up your app in http://appdb.winehq.org
[10:26] <Zambezi> Seveas, To a FTP with Implicit SSL. I tried you version.
[10:26] <lamego> buddhalover, you could have run it from some place where you unpacked the bin
[10:26] <lamego> without installing it
[10:26] <buddhalover> first was ./configure then make, then make check then make install
[10:26] <buddhalover> i did this in the temp folder
[10:26] <buddhalover> tmp
[10:27] <koen> Does anyone else lost some colordepth with the last updates?
[10:27] <kit^> koen: I downloaded that binary but when i extracted it. it said run the qmake command but obs i didnt have that so downloaded qt did you have to do the same
[10:27] <haasteem> ubuntu: aumix... seems i don't have that package
[10:27] <Seveas> koen, are you using quinstorrm (compiz) repos?
[10:28] <koen> Seveas: No.
[10:28] <koen> kit^: Don't know can't remember.
[10:28] <kit^> koen: cheers dude
[10:28] <mcphail> Seveas: this compiz issue is a bad one
[10:28] <koen> kit^: Try installing QT with synaptic.
[10:28] <jn> hey what is the correct way to install a cpkg
[10:28] <Fernand1> Flannel: Do you mind repeating what you said about my problem?
[10:29] <Seveas> mcphail, no, the guy behind it does Bad Things
[10:29] <mcphail> Seveas: syanptic doesn't open, fonts messed up...
[10:29] <Seveas> Really Bad Things
[10:29] <Seveas> mcphail, try this: dpkg --get-selections | grep -v deinstall | cut -f1 > output.txt
[10:29] <Seveas> mcphail, err wait
[10:29] <mcphail> Seveas: the attitude on #ubuntu-xgl is "tough luck, alpha software"
[10:29] <Seveas> mcphail, try this: dpkg --get-selections | grep -v deinstall | cut -f1 | xargs -n50 apt-cache policy > output.txt
[10:30] <Seveas> then opne output.txt and find all packages you installed from quinn
[10:30] <Seveas> and downgrade them
[10:30] <mcphail> Seveas: ok, thanks
[10:30] <koen> Seveas, In the /etc/X11/xorg.conf the defaultdepth is 24 but is aint.
[10:30] <Flannel> Fernand1: alright, If you go here: http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic  You'll see some commands at the top, with some gpg commands, you'll need to do that (add the keys for that repository).  You'll have to generate a sources.list from that page for your repositories (including CA country code and stuff) to get the keys though.
[10:31] <sethk> it is somewhat foolish to load alpha software and complain about the consequences - providing, of course, that it is clearly labeled as alpha
[10:31] <koen> Seveas, Also gdm is low on colordepth.
[10:31] <jn> hwo do i install this cpkg? i can extract to any given diretory but i think each folder that is in it is supposted to go diff places
[10:32] <haasteem> sethk: did you have some time to ponder on my problem?
[10:32] <kit^> koen: theres 4 packages under qt4 shall i install them all?
[10:32] <Fernand1> Flannel: And what do I do from the generated sources.list?
[10:32] <koen> kit^: Heck, why not. :)
[10:32] <Fernand1> WHat do I do with it*
[10:32] <koen> kit^: You can always uninstall them.
[10:32] <kit^> koen: one of themes gotta work :)
[10:33] <koen> kit^: Hehe
[10:33] <Flannel> Fernand1: nothing, it'll just tell you the keys to add with that top script
[10:33] <gabi> su
[10:33] <kit^> koen: actually ones the designer, ones the configuration tool, one is the docs, and one is the dev tools - which one do i want?!?!
[10:34] <drew> How do I allow incoming connections from non-localhost to mysql5?
[10:34] <mcphail> Seveas: do you think it is worthwhile appending anything to the xgl wiki about the current problems?
[10:34] <Fernand1> oh
[10:34] <fyrestrtr> drew: edit the configuration of mysql to listen on your network ip address, then add users that are allowed to connect from another ip address.
[10:34] <Fernand1> okay
[10:34] <Xyc0> How can I connect through wifi to a non-encrypted AP?
[10:34] <Fernand1> I have no idea what to check off though.
[10:34] <koen> kit^: Hold on, I'll have a look.
[10:34] <Fernand1> I don't even know what I have(dapper, hoary, or breezy)
[10:35] <drew> fyrestrtr, thanks.
[10:35] <fyrestrtr> Fernand1: lsb_release -a
[10:36] <koen> kit^: I only have libqt3-mt and my Last.fm player runs.
[10:36] <Xyc0> When I try to connect to a non-wep encrypted AP it times out, anyone know why?
[10:36] <koen> kit^: :)
[10:36] <Elios> back again

[10:37] <lamego> Elios, mysql-server ?

[10:37] <kit^> koen: shall i search for libqt3 get it if i dont have it installed then make a lunacher to the extracted binary?
[10:37] <Flannel> Elios: which servers work with webmin?
[10:38] <Elios> i have no clue
[10:38] <koen> kit^: Jeps
[10:38] <Elios> MySQL

[10:38] <lamego> i said, mysql-server
[10:39] <Elios> ah ok
[10:39] <magical_t> hi, can anyone tell me what the 'scores' mean when installing things with weird dependencies using aptitude.. it tells me one of my 'solutions' has 'a score of -100'
[10:39] <Thunderpants> Elios, did u apt-get install mysql-server?
[10:39] <Elios> just did lol
[10:39] <Elios> XD
[10:39] <koen> kit^: that will work to I guess.
[10:40] <sethk> koen, that will work too, not to
[10:40] <Zambezi> Anyone know how I can connect to a FTP using Implicit SSL? I tried a version of gftp with SSL precompiled, but it complains. It says SSL is not activated. I'm using gftp-text
[10:40] <Fernand1> FLannel: In the web page that you gave me. Do I check off "Packages" and "SOurces" for both sections?
[10:40] <koen> sethk: Sorry. :)
[10:40] <sethk> koen, :)
[10:40] <lamego> Zambezi, tried nautilus ?
[10:41] <kit^> koen: i installed the qt3 - mt shall i now just make a launcher for Last FM and should work?
[10:42] <Luke> I just installed this new font stuff and it made my gtk2 insanely slow. is there any way to fix this
[10:42] <lamego> uninstall it :) ?
[10:43] <kit^> koen: woooo its working now sick :)

[10:43] <Elios> hmm
[10:43] <lamego> frfx, you can't you need to make it empty (if i understood your question)
[10:43] <Xyc0> Do AP's have to be WEP encrypted to connect in Dapper?
[10:44] <Luke> Xyc0: no
[10:44] <Elios> cant seem to get webmin to want to run
[10:44] <Elios> >.>
[10:44] <TheEye> i have an ubuntu problllllem i need help
[10:44] <TheEye> ????
[10:44] <Thunderpants> !ask
[10:44] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:44] <Luke> does anyone know how to get more servers in gtk-gnutella?
[10:44] <TheEye> i put the install cd in my ibook and loadit up
[10:44] <cry0gen> Luke: How many do you get? 4?
[10:44] <TheEye> i type install
[10:44] <frfx> lamego: so if i have a directory with 100 subdirs i need to remove them each manual? hmm..
[10:44] <Luke> yea
[10:44] <Fernand1> Flannel: In the web page that you gave me. Do I check off "Packages" and "SOurces" for both sections?
[10:44] <Luke> cry0gen: yea
[10:44] <Thunderpants> !enter
[10:44] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[10:44] <cry0gen> Luke: that's the maximum.
[10:44] <Dodzey> anyone know of a way to remove the vertical seperate that is to the left of the window list (and notification area) on the panel?
[10:44] <TheEye> then it sends me to open firmware
[10:45] <cry0gen> You would need to hard-code it in there to allow for more than 4.
[10:45] <Luke> cry0gen: since when? I used to have like 400
[10:45] <lamego> frfx, no, if you delete the top dir, the subdir will be automatically deleted
[10:45] <ebel> TheEye, I am also looking to ubuntu-ize my ibook. :)
[10:45] <lamego> i mean, using nautilus
[10:45] <cry0gen> 4 Peer's
[10:45] <koen> kit^: Nice!
[10:45] <Thunderpants> TheEye, i have
[10:45] <cry0gen> but, you can have as many leafs as you want.
[10:45] <Thunderpants> the answer
[10:45] <Thunderpants> but
[10:45] <Thunderpants> i cant
[10:45] <Xyc0> Luke: why does my connection attempt time out when the same AP is non-encrypted?
[10:45] <Thunderpants> read
[10:45] <frfx> lamego: no, the terminal says something like "dir is not empty"
[10:45] <Thunderpants> ur question
[10:45] <Seveas> !enter
[10:45] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[10:45] <cry0gen> frfx: gotta purge it :)
[10:45] <Luke> Xyc0: could be something to do with your network card specifically
[10:45] <Luke> Xyc0: check wiki.ubuntu.com
[10:46] <cry0gen> dpkg --purge program ;) it'll remove the dir's with confs etc.
[10:46] <lamego> frfx, oh terminal, rm -r dir
[10:46] <TheEye> ebell good luck ive been tring for 3 weeks no luck so far
[10:46] <lamego> -r = recursive

[10:47] <Chrono86> I've been searching the forums...but I can't find a clear-cut way to install nvidia drivers on an amd64 system...
[10:48] <Fernand1> I have a question
[10:48] <Seveas> lmosher, apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)

[10:48] <Fernand1> about installing the Universe/Multiverse repositories

[10:48] <Seveas> ebel, ati too ;)
[10:49] <eternalswd> TheEye, do you have a live cd?
[10:49] <TheEye> i have both

[10:49] <lmosher> yeah I was gonna say I had drivers for my ati9800pro, but I switched back to 32bit linux anyway
[10:49] <frfx> lamego: i know..but its pretty unclear
[10:49] <ebel> Seveas, didn't know about ati.. :)
[10:49] <Fernand1> I was told to go to http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic and generate a sources.list key from there, and then run the 2 terminal codes up top. BUt I don't know what to check off in the source-o-matic

I was told to go to http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic and make a sources.list, then run the 2 lines up top with the key I got from the source-o-matic. But I don't know which things to check off in the source-o-matic.
[10:52] <Seveas> Chrono86, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[10:53] <frfx> lamego: why no rmdir?
[10:53] <Chrono86> ok doing that now
[10:53] <ebel> Fernand1, Can you not enable Univers/Multiverse from Synaptic?
[10:53] <lamego> frfx, because you want to remove not only dirs
[10:53] <mcphail> Seveas: back to normal now.  Is there anyway I can store a specific set of command line arguments in a file, then call the program with the file?
[10:53] <Fernand1> nope
[10:53] <Fernand1> I got errors
[10:53] <ebel> Fernand1, What kind?
[10:54] <lamego> ezenu, echo $* > file
[10:54] <frfx> lamego: ok thanks a lot
[10:54] <lamego> np :)
[10:54] <Seveas> ezenu, cat file | xargs program
[10:54] <Chrono86> I'd love to keep using linux...I've used it on and off for years but one major problem keeps me from keeping it on my system...dependancies, dependancies, dependancies lol....they are evil
[10:54] <flasher> the videos we've imported to our computer from our digital camera are pretty dark. So most things are in a black silhouette. Can a program fix the "balance' or the "contrast"? If so, which ones?
[10:54] <Seveas> ezenu, the manpage for xargs should be a nice read for you
[10:54] <lamego> or program `cat file`
[10:54] <lamego> :P
[10:54] <lmosher> exit
[10:54] <Illusion_of_Art> Hello. I have a question.  I've been running the i386 version of Ubuntu. Should I be running that version or another one.
[10:54] <lamego> ah, one for each command
[10:55] <ezenu> Seveas, lamego , thanks. xargs does what I need
[10:55] <lamego> Illusion_of_Art, you can use the 686 kernel
[10:55] <Seveas> Illusion_of_Art, you're running the correct version
[10:55] <ebel> Illusion_of_Art, No. i386 is correct
[10:55] <Illusion_of_Art> Okay
[10:55] <Illusion_of_Art> Thanks
[10:55] <mcphail> Illusion_of_Art: you could upgrade to the 686 kernel
[10:55] <ebel> Illusion_of_Art, The only other versions are: powerpc (for apple machines) and amd64 for 64bit AMD/Intel CPUs.
[10:56] <Seveas> ebel, don't forget sparc
[10:56] <torpor> hello everyone i am enjoying my new Ubuntu tryout very much, but here's a question:  where the !#%@# are the man pages!  'man tcgetattr' == no worky!  how do i get all the 'normal' man pages installed .. something like '-dev' i gotta look for with synaptic/apt-get, or what?   [means all the default unix man pages, including programmer volumes, etc.]
[10:56] <Seveas> and the unofficial ia64 and hppa ports
[10:56] <Fernand1> ebel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21016
[10:56] <ebel> Seveas, There's a sparc ubuntu? I'm impressed.
[10:56] <Seveas> torpor, you need the manpages-dev package
[10:56] <Seveas> torpor, manpages-posix and manpages-posix-dev are good too
[10:57] <fyrestrtr> Seveas: is there a vim package for file higlighting common file types?
[10:57] <Illusion_of_Art> Okay. It runs fine except the mouse jumps around a bit and causes some havoc. I didn't think I was running the wrong one until starting my A+ class
[10:57] <Seveas> fyrestrtr, just type :syntax on inside vim ;)
[10:57] <torpor> Seveas, thanks very much!  any other 'devtools i normally take for granted' that i ought to sniff out?
[10:57] <Seveas> torpor, build-essential
[10:58] <Chrono86> just got nvidia drivers and xgl installed...gonna reboot...wish me luck
[10:58] <Zambezi> Seveas, Should I activate SSL with some command? I tried to login with FTPS in the GUI, but it didn't work.

[11:03] <eternalswd> TheEye, are you sure your boot order is correct?
[11:03] <Aagni> no shining, cant seem to find one
[11:03] <Fernand1> ebel: Okay. aNYWAY, I asked if you could give me an example of something I could put in the terminal to see if those commands worked. SInce it's my first day with Linux(ubuntu).
[11:03] <santa99> he guys
[11:03] <shining> Aagni: paste output in private
[11:04] <santa99> where can i get the fonts for ISO-8859-15
[11:04] <eCokeNCod> hey
[11:04] <ebel> Fernand1, aptitude is the command line version of synaptic.
[11:04] <flasher> the videos we've imported to our computer from our digital camera are pretty dark. So most things are in a black silhouette. Can a program fix the "balance' or the "contrast"? If so, which ones?
[11:04] <orhthotheo> Fernand1: cat /dev/urandom
[11:04] <CokeNCode> right, does anyone know of a good program I can use to send thousands of emails (i'm not a spammer, this is for legitimate purposes)
[11:04] <chris007> i have a problem... i am running xp on my machine i installed ubuntu. i made 10gb unpartitioned space and in ubuntu installer i made a 9gb partition for ubuntu and a 1gb partition for swap, i completed the installation and rebooted as instructed. I wasn't asked in the instalation for any bootloader options. so my machine now boots directly in windows and i don't know how to get to my new ubuntu instalation... can someone help me?
[11:04] <Seveas> CokeNCode, sendmail
[11:04] <orhthotheo> CokeNCode: sendmail with a shellscript ;p
[11:04] <torpor> any other good sources worth having?
[11:04] <trygg> How do i mount a .bin? The bin2iso is unsupported at the official site.
[11:04] <nopcode> CokeNCode: i doubt theres a legitimate purpose for that
[11:05] <eternalswd> flasher, what format is it in?
[11:05] <ebel> Fernand1, So try "sudo aptitude update" and see what happens
[11:05] <fyrestrtr> CokeNCode: mailman
[11:05] <Seveas> nopcode, there is
[11:05] <Zambezi> Which is the best tv-captureapplication? And please don't say MythTV. I failed to start it.
[11:05] <CokeNCode> nopcode yes there is, i work for a company that is sending email to customers. requested email
[11:05] <fyrestrtr> Zambezi: mythtv, its the best!
[11:05] <looktj> does anyone have ubuntu christian edition
[11:05] <CokeNCode> fyestrtr 'mailman' ... thanks
[11:05] <orhthotheo> how can i capture movies of the screen?
[11:05] <CokeNCode> does it read the addresses from an excel file ?
[11:06] <fyrestrtr> orhthotheo: sudo apt-get install istanbul
[11:06] <fyrestrtr> CokeNCode: lol no.
[11:06] <eternalswd> Zambezi, I'm not sure but mencoder might be able to do it.
[11:06] <orhthotheo> fyrestrtr: i dont use sudo :p
[11:06] <Zambezi> fyrestrtr, But I couldn't even configure MySQL.
[11:06] <CokeNCode> fyrestrtr does 'mailman' read addresses from an excel file ... oh darn
[11:06] <CokeNCode> oh k, that's kind of a requirement ... :/
[11:06] <Fernand1> ebel: it works
[11:06] <fyrestrtr> Zambezi: I don't think that's mythv's fault.
[11:06] <CokeNCode> or at the very least ... a text file
[11:06] <fyrestrtr> CokeNCode: nothing will do that, unless it runs on Windows.
[11:06] <CokeNCode> fyrestrtr how about from a textfile
[11:07] <eternalswd> orhthotheo, what format of movies?
[11:07] <torpor> okay.. anyone got any suggestions for other sources/repo's to set up?  any particularly trick ubuntu repositories out there, or is it all pretty much 'use what ubuntu give you'?
[11:07] <CokeNCode> fyrestrtr why not, open office uses the same excel file format
[11:07] <fyrestrtr> CokeNCode: why don't you read up on it? It is one of the most widely used mailing list software in the world. Runs some of the biggest lists.
[11:07] <Zambezi> fyrestrtr, I know, but MythTV needs MySQL. So if MySQL doesn't work, MythTV won't.
[11:07] <CokeNCode> fyrestrtr thanks
[11:07] <CokeNCode> will do
[11:07] <fyrestrtr> Zambezi: fwiw, I have no problems with mythtv or mysql.
[11:07] <TheGateKeeper> torpor: http://za1012001.googlepages.com/modifyingubunturepositories
[11:07] <eternalswd> Zambezi, what problems are you having with mysql?
[11:08] <chris007> is it there a way to make the ubuntu.bin file (needed for my windows loader to dualboot xp and ubuntu) directly form windows xp? i've installed a program witch alows me to read ext3 partitions but i can't use dd for windows to make that file...
[11:08] <torpor> so there are, like, ubuntu 'game' repositories, etc?
[11:08] <TheGateKeeper> !seveas > torpor
[11:08] <Zambezi> eternalswd, Too long ago, but I can check again. I just need to find the Howto.
[11:08] <eternalswd> chris007, why not use grub?
[11:08] <Fernand1> ebel: the command worked. Now what?
[11:08] <ebel> Fernand1, The Universe/Mulitverse repositories can be added manually by editing the /etc/apt/source.list file (using sudo)
[11:08] <orhthotheo> fyrestrtr: this istanbul is very strange, it get no icon in the notification area
[11:09] <orhthotheo> using fvwm
[11:09] <orhthotheo> is it some gnomething?
[11:09] <Flannel> chris007: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[11:09] <chris007> eternalswd: i can't bnoot in ubuntu.. my machine boots directly into windows
[11:09] <chris007> thanks flannel :)
[11:10] <Fernand1> Well. I tried adding the repositories by going to  "System>Administration>SOftware properties" and then adding something into Ubuntu 6.0.8 TSL(something like that) (Source)
[11:10] <Fernand1> and after that I got the warnings in synoptic package manager
[11:11] <ebel> Fernand1, Can you delete that added repository?
[11:11] <Fernand1> Maybe. NOt sure how to do it. As I said before, it is my first day
[11:12] <ebel> Fernand1, well try clicking on add, then select Ubuntu 6.06 LTS, and click on all the check boxes
[11:12] <Aagni> shining: u around?
[11:12] <shining> Aagni: yes
[11:13] <onikos> is there any kernel source(about 50MB) of ubuntu that match a kernel version of a certain ubuntu installation?
[11:13] <ebel> Fernand1, ("offical supported", "restricted copyright", "universe" and "multiverse")
[11:13] <ebel> Fernand1, then click add, and then reload.
[11:13] <epitaf-laptop> is there a way to calibrate a mouse pad in ubuntu?
[11:13] <Zambezi> fyrestrtr, If I ask very nice, could you please be me support? I need to configure it until 16.00 GMT 0. About 15 hours left.
[11:14] <fyrestrtr> epitaf-laptop: tptools
[11:14] <ebel> Is it possible to disable a laptop trackpad when a mouse is plugged in?
[11:14] <flasher> eternalswd: wmv format
[11:14] <epitaf-laptop> fyrestrtr, sweet, thanks
[11:14] <BoneyOne> on a new 6.06 install after using the sudo command a few times it seems to be broken, error is sudo: unable to lookup boneyone-laptop via gethostbyname() when I try to sudo or gksudo
[11:14] <fyrestrtr> Zambezi: what do you need help with exactly? I am about to go to bed, so if its something quick -- then sure.
[11:14] <eternalswd> flasher, through a browser?
[11:15] <flasher> eternalswd: nope
[11:15] <Dev05> Hi there! I did a dist-upgrade yesterday nigth and it installed an update for lib-vte. Now Synaptic won't start because it can't find that lib. What's going on???
[11:15] <Zambezi> fyrestrtr, It'll take longer. I'll try myself. Probably I won't make it.
[11:15] <eternalswd> flasher, how is it being accessed?
[11:15] <epitaf-laptop> fyrestrtr, know if there's an equivalent i xubuntu?
[11:15] <kit^> has anyone been able to transfer video onto a zen vision M sucessfully and get it in it the video folder and working??
[11:15] <Elios> well since webmin is out
[11:15] <fyrestrtr> it should work in xubuntu
[11:15] <Elios> some one want to help me getting swat working
[11:15] <Kyja> why do .exe applications stopped haveing wine as the default program? it now is terminal !! how can I fix this so I dont have to type wine in the open with other application field?
[11:15] <lordhelmet> Dev05: try reinstalling synaptic from commandline apt-get
[11:16] <epitaf-laptop> fyrestrtr, ok
[11:16] <flasher> eternalswd: we imported the movie from digital movie camera onto the computer. we want to burn the movie files onto DVD. but before burning, we'd like to fix the "light balance"
[11:16] <eternalswd> Kyja, right click on an exe and go to properties
[11:16] <Dev05> lordhelmet, OK, I'll let you know. Thanks!
[11:16] <Blissex> Kyja: look for the 'binmisc' executable type handler.
[11:16] <Fernand1> ebel: thanks
[11:16] <ebel> Fernand1, that worked?
[11:18] <Dev05> lordhelmet, That's weird thought, dist-upgrade shouldn't break your system...
[11:18] <Dev05> though*
[11:18] <Kyja> :/ in what tab is this? the open with tab has "wine windows emulator" as an enty
[11:18] <BoneyOne> I recieve the following error "sudo: unable to lookup boneyone-laptop via gethostbyname()" when I try to sudo or gksudo
[11:18] <Kyja> this must be what you are refering to
[11:18] <lordhelmet> yes tis weird..have you tried logging out, logging back in? maybe an env variable didn't get updated....maybe try rebooting even
[11:19] <Dev05> lordhelmet, Yeah, done all of that. Now it finished re-installing... Let me see.
[11:19] <Kyja> and it stopped working. and firefox and chatzilla have been quiting on there own :/ something funny going on.
[11:19] <Dev05> lordhelmet, synaptic: error while loading shared libraries: libvte.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.
[11:19] <epitaf-laptop> fyrestrtr, are you sure its called "tptools"? i did a search in the package manager without luck
[11:19] <Kyja> but I rebootedd so we will see.
[11:20] <Kyja> but this wine thing has be bugged.
[11:20] <TheGame> any1 know how to disable touchpad
[11:20] <eternalswd> flasher, I'm not sure but avidemux might be able to do it.  If not I'm sure mencoder can do it though you'd have to look up the documentation on it.
[11:20] <Dev05> Same error as before.
[11:20] <jrib> BoneyOne: your /etc/hosts should have a line that looks like this: <IP_ADDRESS> localhost.localdomain localhost HOSTNAME
[11:20] <Kyja> gnomebaker wont launch
[11:20] <jrib> BoneyOne: where HOSTNAME is whatever is in /etc/hostname
[11:20] <Kyja> this just gets better and better grrrr
[11:20] <ebel> TheGame, I've seen something about disabling the touchpad when typing on Linux.
[11:20] <s|k> 2M + 64kb = how many kb?
[11:20] <TheGame> hmm
[11:21] <TheGame> that would be nice too
[11:21] <ebel> TheGame, Don't have any links. google search.
[11:21] <TheGame> will try
[11:21] <jrib> Dev05: that is because you are using compiz repositories, search ubuntuforums.org for libvte and you'll find the fix
[11:21] <eternalswd> Kyja, yes the open with tab, make sure "wine windows emulator" is selected
[11:22] <jrib> Dev05: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=238668
[11:22] <Dev05> jrib, O-o... Wow, that's the last thing I'd think about. Thanks!
[11:23] <sergiol> tks
[11:23] <Kyja> :o I think I know what happened.
[11:23] <sergiol> what's the meaning of rc in begining of dpkg -l lines
[11:24] <Kyja> an darn windows installer launched and wrote temp files and then could not delete.
[11:24] <TheGame> heres the problem
[11:24] <Kyja> it sabotaged my system
[11:24] <Ayano_> how do I find out what version of ubuntu I am running?
[11:24] <TheGame> ive found a lot of howtos to disable the touchpad
[11:24] <TheGame> but whenever i try synclient -l
[11:24] <flasher> eternalswd: do you know of a program that can fix the "light balance" or contrast of a movie file (in wmv) on Windows XP?
[11:24] <fyrestrtr> Ayano_: lsb_release -a
[11:24] <TheGame> i get a memory error even though ive enabled it in xorg
[11:24] <Goshawk> this is a package creation wuestion about the ubuntu policy: is it legal that a package replaces or changes a configuration file of another package?
[11:24] <jrib> sergiol: removed but config files remain.  The first few lines of output should explain the letters
[11:24] <eigenlambda> how do i build a package?
[11:24] <Dev05> jrib, The ln think did it. Thanks!
[11:25] <Ayano_> ty fyrestrtr
[11:25] <sergiol> how can i remove the remaining?
[11:25] <jrib> Goshawk: you may want to try #ubuntu-motu
[11:25] <sergiol> conf files?
[11:25] <Goshawk> jrib: ok thanks
[11:25] <sergiol> dpkg --purge does not work
[11:25] <cfedde> installing postgresql-8.1 on an ubuntu box is breaking for me with this error: Error: Could not parse locale out of pg_controldata output.  Am I just overlooking domething?
[11:25] <sergiol> :(
[11:26] <ebel> eigenlambda, Look at the main-guide package.
[11:26] <ebel> eigenlambda, it has a guide on how to be a package maintainer (ie make your own package)
[11:26] <jrib> sergiol: purge might work if you reinstall the package and then purge
[11:28] <Aagni> shining: thanks mate
[11:28] <Warbo> Anyone know why my teddy is dead?

[11:28] <Warbo> Running xteddy in E16 all I get is a white ghost in the shape of the teddy :(
[11:28] <Aagni> Warbo: u hit it too hard?
[11:28] <jrib> Warbo: was he ever alive?
[11:28] <Christopher> Can someone tell me the default password for root?
[11:28] <jrib> !root > Christopher
[11:28] <nopcode> Christopher: jehova
[11:28] <Aagni> Christopher: non
[11:29] <santa99> he guys ext3 is only a extended ext2 or isn't it ?
[11:29] <Christopher> Why does ubuntu do all this sudo crap
[11:29] <Warbo> ext3=ext2+journal
[11:29] <IceOwl> ext3 is the journaling version of ext2
[11:29] <Aagni> santa99: i suppose so .. an advanced version of ext2
[11:29] <IceOwl> yeah, what Warbo said :P
[11:29] <TheGateKeeper> eigenlambda: this what you are after? http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html
[11:29] <Aagni> does anyone know how to enable Fn keys on laptop
[11:29] <Flannel> Christopher: Because it has benefits over using root, as explained on that webpage
[11:29] <Aagni> or map them
[11:30] <santa99> Aagni, this should be done by default
[11:30] <Aagni> santa99: how do i check if it is?
[11:30] <Christopher> Well, them how do I rmdir if I dont know the password?
[11:30] <epitaf-laptop> Is there a need for a antivirus program in ubuntu? Or is the fact that almost all viruses are written for Windows enough to not install one?
[11:30] <Aagni> epitaf-laptop: i never have
[11:30] <santa99> Aagni, hold on a moment i look for the program name
[11:30] <Dev05> epitaf-laptop, There is. No need to.
[11:30] <sergiol> what means pn ?
[11:30] <Warbo> I really want to use xteddy (don't ask) but I can't even start a different window manager in a different X server, since I have to use Xorg-air and it complains if I try to open a new session
[11:30] <Flannel> Christopher: it's your own user password
[11:30] <lamego> Christopher, you don't thats why you need sudo, to protect against people that can damage the system
[11:30] <Aagni> santa99: sure
[11:31] <santa99> Aagni, hotekey-setup
[11:31] <ebel> epitaf-laptop, AFAIK there are anti-viruses on linux to detect windows viruses.
[11:31] <santa99> Aagni, this is the program which has done on my laptop
[11:31] <lamego> if you dont know the passwrod you shouldn't be deleting root owned files
[11:31] <epitaf-laptop> Aagni, Dev05 hm.. ok
[11:31] <Led_Zeppelin> what is the extra resposity link in Ubuntu
[11:31] <sergiol> in the beginning ogf dpkg -l lines (not on man page)?
[11:31] <nopcode> lamego: that is assuming that the user is a moron
[11:31] <Aagni> santa99: not found
[11:31] <Aagni> do i need to install it
[11:31] <lamego> nopcode, uh ? only morons delete important files ?
[11:31] <santa99> Aagni, realised right now
[11:31] <epitaf-laptop> ebel, ok
[11:31] <BoneyOne> jrib: yes, the hosts file is mission the info, but i can't open it other than read-only since sudo does not work
[11:32] <BoneyOne> mission=missing
[11:32] <Warbo> I delete important files all the time and I'm not.... oh wait
[11:32] <nopcode> lamego: root should be able to use a root shell instead of doing sudo all the time
[11:32] <jrib> BoneyOne: reboot and choose 'recovery mode' from the grub menu
[11:32] <lamego> BoneyOne, boot from a cd using recovery mode
[11:32] <BoneyOne> k, thx
[11:32] <santa99> Aagni, i have no idea what to do else sorry
[11:32] <lamego> Warbo, oh you must be my hero, you never deleted a file by accident :)
[11:32] <acon> Hi, does anyone know where the applications are on Ubuntu? I've only found menus with launchers and a list of processes in System Monitior, but no representation of applications.
[11:32] <TheGateKeeper> nopcode: that's possible too
[11:32] <Warbo> lamego: I uninstalled libc6 about a week ago
[11:32] <shining> Aagni: though, some ppl prefer using fglrx instead of the open source drivers, even with r200. but r200 dri drivers should be reasonably good
[11:33] <Warbo> acon: Try in /usr/bin
[11:33] <ebel> acon, Do you not have an Applications menu?
[11:33] <lamego> acon, applications are distributed across several directories according to the files type
[11:33] <Blissex> acon: '/usr/bin' most of them, also the docs are in '/usr/share/doc/' and the 'man' pages in '/usr/share/man/man1/'
[11:33] <acon> Warbo: does that contain applications. I only thought it contained executable files
[11:33] <Warbo> acon: What do you mean by applications then?
[11:34] <lamego> Warbo, the set of files which builds an application
[11:34] <ebel> acon, On Linux (and unix), applications are normally spread over many directoies.
[11:34] <nopcode> you might want to grab a copy of microsoft windows
[11:34] <acon> Warbo: Like what you find in the Applications directory on a Mac
[11:34] <Warbo> I have never used a Mac
[11:34] <acon> Or on the dock (also on Mac)
[11:34] <ebel> acon,  Linux doesn't really do that.
[11:34] <Warbo> If you want a dock then take a look at gdesklets, adesklets and cairo-dock
[11:34] <acon> Nice Icons that shows you if the application is running and that you can throw in the trash to get rid of the application
[11:34] <ebel> acon, And on OSX, applications are really folders that contain executables (and other stuff). :)
[11:35] <Thunderpants> does any part of gdesklets work?
[11:35] <ebel> acon, use aptitude (or synaptic or apt-get) to delete an application from ubuntu.
[11:35] <acon> ebel: That is an implementation issue
[11:35] <Warbo> acon: That is a different UI implementation. I don't know of a window manager that does that, but E16's icon box is similar
[11:36] <ebel> Warbo, I'm sure GNUStep does it as well. :)
[11:36] <nopcode> i mean who cares about guis anyways
[11:36] <Warbo> I have never tries GNUStep
[11:36] <acon> I guess Gnome is very Document centric, which works for document based applications like open office, but doesn't work as well for applications like Rhythmbox
[11:36] <Thunderpants> must be me: i start gdesklets, choose any of the 5 weather applets on offer, and gdesklets shits itself
[11:36] <ebel> GNUStep is open source NextStep. OSX is based on NextStep.
[11:36] <Warbo> acon: Rhythmbox implements it's own library system anyway (and I hate Rhythmbox. I use Amarok and Listen)
[11:36] <ebel> So I'm /assuming/ it's a similar UI.
[11:37] <Warbo> ebel: Does GNUStep run on Darwin? That would be a cool comparison :)
[11:37] <ebel> Warbo, Hmm, I don't know... Interesting idea though...
[11:37] <acon> Warbo: the problem with rhythmbox is that it quits when I closes its window, since that is the only option since there is no representation for applications in Gnome
[11:37] <mrDaniel> is there maybe the compatibility-list for grafic-cards which are supported by Xgl+compiz?
[11:38] <Warbo> acon: Ermmm, you can minimise it?
[11:38] <ebel> acon, Eh? I've been able to get rhythmbox to stay open in the background. I think....
[11:38] <Warbo> And Listen and Amarok can live in the notification area
[11:38] <Led_Zeppelin> anyone know where I can get more Ubuntu repositories?
[11:38] <mrDaniel> the point is: i have a GeForce Go 7600 and Xgl+compiz is very buggy
[11:38] <mr3vil> hi @ all
[11:38] <Dev05> mrDaniel, Xgl IS buggy.
[11:38] <Warbo> Led_Zeppelin: What for? If you need a certain application then search for a repo for it. It is a bad idea to randomly add loads of repos that contain crap
[11:38] <Thunderpants> mr3vil, hix805
[11:39] <Led_Zeppelin> Warbo: isn't there a website that does this?
[11:39] <Warbo> Led_Zeppelin: apt-get.org does that for Debian, but I use Google if I want a certain app which is not in Ubuntu
[11:39] <Thunderpants> ?
[11:40] <apallo19> i am having problems, and it's making me want to quit linux all together
[11:41] <Dev05> apallo19, What's that?
[11:41] <dicesquirrel> Question... after a recent apt-get upgrade, gnome-mud ceased working, giving me the error "gnome-mud: error while loading shared libraries: libvte.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" Where would I get this package? Doing sudo apt-get install libvte tells me there's no package by that name.
[11:41] <ebel> acon, when I start rhythmbox I get a little musical note beside the clock (next to the gaim icon) clicking on that gets rid of rhythmbox but keep running and playing.
[11:41] <Dev05> dicesquirrel, sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libvte.so.9 /usr/lib/libvte.so.4
[11:41] <TheGateKeeper> apallo19: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountwindows.php
[11:41] <Warbo> I suppose now would be a good time to fix Xorg. Does anyone know why the two "major" version numbers of an Xorg module might not match? I'll try and get the name of the module
[11:41] <ebel> acon, More than just minimizing it.
[11:41] <Juhaz> dicesquirrel, the package is libvte4
[11:41] <mrDaniel> @Dev05 "Xgl IS buggy", ok now I understand :)
[11:42] <dicesquirrel> Ah!
[11:42] <Dev05> mrDaniel, It's just in a too early stage of development.
[11:42] <dicesquirrel> Juhaz: libvte4 is already the newest version.
[11:42] <acon> ebel: I'm just used to closing windows with the x-button in the corner of the window and not have the application quit on me
[11:42] <TheGateKeeper> apallo19: not only but also: Windows to Ubuntu Transition Guide:http://www.pcmech.com/show/os/917/
[11:43] <Dev05> dicesquirrel, Did you run the command I sent you?
[11:43] <Warbo> libexa.so is giving me problems. It is in xserver-xorg-core, but I have screwed it up with AIGLX
[11:43] <Warbo> acon: There is a button next to the X, it is called minimise
[11:43] <dicesquirrel> Dev05, yes, and I got nothing but a new prompt. Didn't find anything
[11:43] <apallo19> TheGateKeeper: Thank you, but that's not what i want
[11:43] <acon> Warbo: I know, I just have to teach my hand
[11:43] <Warbo> (well, for me it is on the opposite side of the titlebar)
[11:43] <mrDaniel> and what is with the AIXGL (or AIGLX) projekt?
[11:44] <Dev05> dicesquirrel, Your problems should be solved with that.
[11:44] <dan2> evening
[11:44] <Warbo> AIGLX is indirect rendering extensions for the standard Xorg
[11:44] <apallo19> i want to take my shared folder on windows (my mp3's speciffically) and mount that folder as a drive
[11:44] <Thunderpants> !xgl > mrDaniel
[11:44] <Dev05> apallo19, You'll need Samba.
[11:44] <dicesquirrel> Genius! Thank you, Dev05! You're my hero.
[11:44] <Warbo> XGL is a different X server, based on Xorg
[11:44] <apallo19> i am using samba
[11:44] <dicesquirrel> And this is why I continue to use Ubuntu. Superb support.
[11:44] <shining> xgl doesn't seem to be the way to go
[11:45] <shining> aiglx is in edgy
[11:45] <Dev05> dicesquirrel, Na, another guy in this IRC actually told me that :)
[11:45] <dan2> how do I adjust my display settings from 1024x768 to 1280x1024 so it fits my monitor's resolution properly?
[11:45] <dicesquirrel> Regardless, the community here is second-to-none.
[11:45] <apallo19> all of the guides tell me to make a folder in /media/, which i do, using sudo mkdir /media/mp3s
[11:45] <TheGateKeeper> apallo19: easiest way is to use konqueror
[11:45] <Warbo> There REALLY needs to be a proper help.ubuntu.com page for AIGLX, since the current one just links to a forum page which has screwed up my regular Xorg
[11:45] <boredandstupid> in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:45] <shining> dan2: maybe sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg or something
[11:46] <dan2> ok
[11:46] <wefwef> inux-ifed
 oppN|RgX-[i] : d
[11:46] <apallo19> i dont want to make a remote folder, i want to map it as a mounted drive
[11:46] <jrib> wefwef: hmm?
[11:46] <Dev05> apallo19, is not a network drive?
[11:47] <apallo19> it's a folder shared on my windoze box
[11:47] <shining> dan2: or maybe not. I don't know what's the recommended way, but you can do it by directly editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:47] <apallo19>  //windowsbox/mp3
[11:47] <lamego> apallo19, your guides are correct
[11:47] <TheGateKeeper> apallo19: what you do is share a windows directory, then use konqueror to navigate to it, it has a samba client built in, you only need samba if you permanently want to mount a windows share
[11:47] <TheGateKeeper> !samba > apallo19
[11:47] <apallo19> you hit it on the head gatekeeper
[11:48] <Warbo> Cool, I have another X. Just seems that switching user with AIGLX needs sorting out
[11:48] <ebel> apallo19, Nautilus (the GNOME file manager) has a sambsa client as well.
[11:48] <apallo19> i want a permanantly mounted drive
[11:48] <Dev05> !samba
[11:48] <ubotu> samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[11:48] <ebel> I think there might be a sambsa filesystem. You could have it automount then....
[11:48] <lamego> apallo19, what is wrong with the guide you were writing about ?
[11:49] <ebel> Gah!  I'm going to install Ubuntu and see if I can get OSX on there some other time. (Like when I can find the OSX install disks)
[11:50] <apallo19> it looks like it's working, but doesn't
[11:50] <angenis_> shut u
[11:50] <angenis_> p
[11:50] <ebel> apallo19, Can you elaborote? What makes it look like it's working? What makes it look like it's not?
[11:51] <Warbo> I anyone here using AIGLX, or Xorg-air?
[11:51] <Warbo> *Is
[11:51] <KenSentMe> DOes anyone here use the rss aggregator PenguinTV? I've added a few feeds, but they are nowhere to be seen, and i don't get any error.
[11:52] <tony43242> .google penguintv
[11:52] <Fernand1> I have a problem :(
[11:52] <ebel> Fernand1, Oh? :)
[11:52] <Fernand1> My synaptic package manager is not starting when I click on it
[11:52] <tony43242> O_o Are you looking for an ubuntu package?
[11:52] <Warbo> Democracy Player does a similar function, and I get it to save videos to ~/Files/Videos/Random
[11:52] <tony43242> Kensentme: Are you looking for a ubuntu package for it?
[11:52] <KenSentMe> tony43242: no, it's already in the repo's, i have a problem with it
[11:53] <apallo19> this is the 1st error i get:
[11:53] <apallo19> #ubuntu
[11:53] <Zambezi> Isn't it unsecure to install Apache2 and MySQL which is package MythTV need?
[11:53] <apallo19> oops
[11:53] <Fernand1> When I try opening Synaptic Package Manager. NOthing happens. It's supposed to open but instead it shows up for a fraction of a second and dissappears.
[11:53] <apallo19> " mount: only root can mount //server/share on /media/mp3s
[11:53] <Fernand1> can anybody help me with this?
[11:53] <Warbo> apallo19: sudo
[11:53] <Dev05> Fernandl, You just did a dist-update, right?
[11:54] <apallo19> i am using sudo
[11:54] <Warbo> oh
[11:54] <Warbo> Maybe "sudo -s -H" then do it without the sudo?
[11:54] <apallo19> then i do a sudo mount -a
[11:54] <Warbo> (then ctrl-D to become normal user again)
[11:54] <Dev05> Fernand1, dist-upgrade, well.
[11:54] <ebel> Huh, looks like there is no real difference between dapper live cd and install cd....
[11:55] <apallo19> then it tells me the folder /media/mp3s, which i just created, doesn't exist
[11:55] <Warbo> ebel: They are one: "desktop CD". The only others are non-GUI (server, alternate, etc.)
[11:55] <Warbo> It saves money for ShipIt :)
[11:55] <ebel> Warbo, yeah, just noticing that.... Certainly makes the installer much more user friendly. :)
[11:56] <Fernand1> Dev05: Yes. I just did a dist-upgrade
[11:56] <Dev05> Fernand1, Run: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libvte.so.9 /usr/lib/libvte.so.4
[11:56] <Warbo> ebel: I was using my PC normally whilst the installer was going in the background :)
[11:56] <TheGateKeeper> ebel: which one more user friendly??
[11:56] <Dev05> Fernand1, Everything should be fine after.
[11:57] <andouar> hi
[11:57] <Warbo> hi
[11:57] <m4rk> hello trendsetters
[11:57] <ebel> TheGateKeeper, well now you have a full OS while installing, as opposed to a 1992 crappy terminal thingie
[11:57] <Fernand1> Dev05
[11:57] <m4rk> my "hemp" slippers are starting to smell
[11:57] <Fernand1> DevO5: Can you repeat that but in ALL CAPS so I can see what letter is which? I'll translate it to lower-caps as I write it
[11:57] <m4rk> ebel: I like the crappy terminal in '92
[11:57] <Mez> m4rk: lol - if i dont wash my feet often enough they start smelling of hemp
[11:57] <m4rk> ebel: liked*
[11:58] <Warbo> I was web browsing, listening to stuff, chatting, etc. while installing
[11:58] <Warbo> Beats Ark Linux's tetris-while-installing
[11:58] <Warbo> (or Arch? I forget which)
[11:58] <Dev05> Fernand1, SUDO LN -S /USR/LIB/LIBVTE.SO.9 /USR/LIB/LIBVTE.SO.4
[11:58] <m4rk> Mez: that must smell nice
[11:58] <Mez> m4rk: lol - not really
[11:59] <Warbo> Dev05: Terminals are case-sensitive you know......
[11:59] <TheGateKeeper> ebel: well the full OS only works if you have enough RAM etc, on my PC I have to use the 'crappy terminal thingie' and most of the time I actually prefer the 'crappy terminal thingie' :-)
[11:59] <m4rk> I haven't had linux since slackware and that was in about 1992-1995
[11:59] <Warbo> I was using 5GB swap, so I was OK
[11:59] <Fernand1> k
[11:59] <Fernand1> it didn't give me any output
[11:59] <KenSentMe> Where can i put a request to add a newer version of a certain package to edgy then there is now?
[11:59] <m4rk> ahh those were the days. none of this newfangled internet
[11:59] <TheGateKeeper> ebel: my P3 test box to be precise
[11:59] <Dev05> Warbo, I know, the guy couldn't see, that's all.
[11:59] <Fernand1> warbo: I told Dev05 to give it to me in all caps so I could see what letters were which
[12:00] <drbashir> Ok, im lost, how do I get my iPaq to work? ried installing multisync and synce, but now I'm stuck not finding "synce-serial-config" anywhere on my filesystem
[12:00] <lamego> Fernand1, you are creating a link, there is no output expected, unless you get an error
[12:00] <Warbo> Internet was arounf in '92. World Wide Web wasn't though
[12:00] <Fernand1> lmaego: THank you
[12:00] <Mez> KenSentMe, what package ?
[12:00] <m4rk> yes Warbo
[12:00] <KenSentMe> Mez: PenguinTV
[12:00] <`m0> hi, have anyone installed gnome network manager?
[12:00] <m4rk> fsp and xview were the go
[12:00] <Fernand1> Dev05: Thanks. It works now :)
[12:00] <Fernand1> bye
[12:00] <Fernand1> really appretiate the help
[12:00] <drbashir> *sigh* laptop battery almost dead already :((
