[09:40] <espo> I just updated Ubuntu fiesty 7.04, did the restart and find that evolution-data-server-1.10 is using 80% or more of my CPU all the time. any clue how to fix this?
[09:40] <wolfsong> you sure that's what it's called?
[09:40] <kylebbb> brandonperry: really?
[09:40] <intr80> lee_ : you said you were connected 'directly to a router' you are not. your connected to a nat firewall
[09:40] <brandonperry> yeah
[09:40] <frojnd> hello there
[09:40] <lee_> intr80: i know how to port forward i just have no idea how to access something i can use from a shell usual done threw webconfig window
[09:40] <frojnd> how can I chane resolution to 1240 * 1023
[09:40] <brandonperry> I/O errors are dead giveaways
[09:40] <intr80> lee_ : chances are you should just use the old crappy nvidia driver
[09:40] <kylebbb> brandonperry: why?
[09:40] <xtknight> kylebbb, brandonperry usually, but not necessarily.  it could be a driver bug anywhere up from the drive like the controller, or even chipset
[09:41] <finalbeta> espo, best to search launchpad for it. if it's not reported, report it.
[09:41] <hopender> wolfsong: Let me check hang oin
[09:41] <frojnd> how can I chane resolution to 1240 * 1024 because this is reccomended resolution for my monitor..
[09:41] <intr80> lee_ : you need a web browser & a graphical environment
[09:41] <lee_> intr80: its a Wireless router dude
[09:41] <xtknight> kylebbb, brandonperry  i had buffer i/o due to my jmicron i think.  plus buffer i/o errors happen if there's no media in the drive.
[09:41] <Tsukasa> xtknight, lolz, ive had a linux box for like 5 days
[09:41] <xtknight> Tsukasa, hehe gotta learn sometime ;)
[09:41] <nickrud> lee_, install lynx, that's a text browser. Should do the job
[09:41] <finalbeta> espo: nevermind, it's the stable release, it should work already :P
[09:41] <lee_> nickrud: thanks nick
[09:41] <kylebbb> xtknight: this is sda1 not fd0 or cdrom0
[09:41] <solid_liq> anyone else had the problem, that after burning a dvd, it doesn't want to eject, even with root doing the eject command, and your computer gets a little bit jerky?
[09:41] <brandonperry> kylebbb: from personal experience, it is bad drive
[09:41] <xtknight> kylebbb, a HD or flash driev?
[09:42] <xtknight> kylebbb, what controller do you use?  Something potentially new and unstable, or a tried-and-true one?
[09:42] <espo> finalbeta: I dont' even use evolution. can't I just keep it from starting some how?
[09:42] <hopender> wolfsong: Try, sudo apt-get install Kiba-Dock
[09:42] <Soup_> anyone here use Gdesklets I can not get the weather to display correctly anyone help?
[09:42] <xtknight> SATA controller, i mean.
[09:42] <kylebbb> xtknight: IDE hd drive emulated thru sda
[09:42] <xtknight> kylebbb, "sudo lshw --class storage" will tell you about your IDE controllers
[09:42] <lee_> nickrud: doesnt work mate cant get past the damn auth screen
[09:42] <kylebbb> xtknight: its an emulation not reality
[09:43] <hopender> Wolfsong: Actually do this, this is how to get it xD My bad
[09:43] <xtknight> kylebbb, hmm?
[09:43] <nickrud> lee_, try links or elinks then, two other text browsers
[09:43] <kylebbb> xtknight: h/o
[09:43] <lee_> nickrud: i just used links2 il try elinks
[09:43] <hopender> sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:43] <hopender> and at the bottom add
[09:43] <xtknight> kylebbb, sorry, "sudo lshw -class storage"
[09:43] <hopender> deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/3vldeb edgy beryl-svn
[09:43] <hopender> deb-src http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb edgy beryl-svn
[09:43] <Messia1> i cant login?
[09:43] <kylebbb> xtkight: i have a IDE HD but Ubuntu fakes a SATA interface on top of it
[09:44] <xtknight> kylebbb, right, that's all good
[09:44] <hopender> wolfsong: then do a sudo apt-get update then a sudo apt-get install Kiba-Dock
[09:44] <alex_> anybody any idea why changing my NIC has killed my mysql server?
[09:44] <xtknight> kylebbb, but what IDE controller are you using?
[09:44] <alex_> :(
[09:44] <kylebbb> k31th: h/o

[09:51] <lee_> nickrud: says nvidia but not nv

[09:55] <hopender> How do I get a task manager on Ubuntu?
[09:55] <StevenR> hopender: define "task manager"
[09:55] <benanz1> cwilla: depends on your wireless chipset

[09:56] <nickrud> hopender, alt-f2  gnome-system-monitor
[09:56] <cwillu> benanz1: assuming that the card is supported, does it just work, or do you have to manually connect?
[09:57] <cwillu> (manually being anything but clicking on the access point in the list and entering a prompted password)
[09:57] <etale> my laptop seems to be generating a lot of heat
[09:57] <benanz1> which chipset revision?  I cannot say for sure with NDISwrapper, but you might be able to use bcm43xx in which case it would "just work"
[09:57] <etale> in fact, shuts down sometimes
[09:57] <etale> i cant find any helpful hints on forums
[09:57] <etale> anyone having the same problem in 7.04?
[09:58] <Martinofdoom> Hello
[09:58] <cwillu> benanz1: just in general, does it work by clicking on the access point, or do you normally have to manually add the connection?
[09:58] <samwize> etale: assuming you have a temp sensor, use some software to determine core tempurature

[09:58] <hopender> Where can I find cool themes for Ubuntu?
[09:58] <Martinofdoom> Does anyone know how I can install the libaudiomodule_pcm_jack.so file?
[09:59] <benanz1> If it is supported, you'd just click your access point, enter your WPA passphrase one time, then it's automatically remembered forever
[09:59] <etale> which is 185 F
[09:59] <Martinofdoom> I need it to run Skype with VOIP in Internet DJ Console

[10:05] <gary4gar> dstadulis, cd  /home/usrname/.mozilla
[10:05] <benanz1> go to failsafe terminal at the login screen

[10:06] <milanl> dstadulis: so "cd /home/usrname/.mozilla"
[10:06] <gary4gar> dstadulis, or in nautilus press CTRL+H
[10:06] <WaltzingAlong> burito: actually i knew of someone who was making a system to help you figure out just that

[10:07] <dstadulis> milanl: thanks, is there a way to list all of the folders in /home/usrname/ though?

[10:07] <WaltzingAlong> Enul: yes
[10:08] <gbjk_> Evening everyone.
[10:08] <gbjk_> I'm having some trouble getting used to GUIs.
[10:08] <j0han_> nickrud seems to be installing now... thanks... what is that java web start 1.4 I installed then?
[10:08] <b14ck> letha1: did u get my pm?
[10:08] <gbjk_> In particular, I just switched to xfce.
[10:08] <gbjk_> I'd installed vanilla ubuntu, but now I just let xfce take over from gnome at the prompt.
[10:09] <nickrud> j0han_, it's an old java ; I'm not too up on java except to know how to install what works ;)
[10:09] <Enul> thanks nickrud
[10:09] <gbjk_> Gnome would handle the wlan stuff seamlessly, particularly from a roaming point of view.
[10:09] <b14ck> letha1: type this into a terminal to get your video card installed: wget http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/100.14.11/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run && sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run
[10:09] <gbjk_> With xfce I find that it doesn't.
[10:09] <gbjk_> I manually ifconfig up, iwconfig setup and dhclient/dhcpcd the thing to get it up.
[10:09] <gbjk_> Once up it works fine.
[10:09] <Messia1> benanzl:am in recovery mode is not working.
[10:10] <root__> nickrud: installed pastebinit but pastebinit --help returns a cannot read from file error
[10:10] <gbjk_> How *should* this be handled automatically with xfce?
[10:10] <nickrud> j0han_, and just for completeness, you should install sun-java6-jre , and run sudo update-alternatives --config java , and be sure sun is selected
[10:10] <gbjk_> Google seems to know only that it works automatically and dtrt.
[10:10] <gbjk_> Any help would be appreciated.
[10:10] <CyberCod> Hello every one
[10:10] <nickrud> root_, that is too freaking weird; someone else had that problem but it works here; he got it working but didn't tell me how

[10:11] <root__> nickrud: any ideas on what to do :P

[10:13] <root___> nickrud: nope says cannot read from -i

[10:13] <CyberCod> kagemaro, hold a minute, I'll see if I can dig somethin up
[10:13] <milanl> christian_: what things?
[10:13] <kolmilludo> i need help installing a wireless broadcom 4318 in ubuntu 7.04 can anybody help me
[10:13] <j0han_> nickrud thanks alot for the help... I will try to do that now but Im not good at linux
[10:13] <UltaMike> hi there
[10:14] <UltaMike> im having a problem with installing some gui interfaces
[10:14] <kagemaro> CyberCod - Thanks, my Xbox 360 screen is better than my PC screen for watching movies
[10:14] <Ranbee> what's the fastest secure way to copy files (right now it's a movie)  wirelessly on my LAN? suse to ubuntu, i was going to use scp.
[10:14] <nickrud> pen, you need a different chat client; install xchat it will let you see when someone's addressing you.  sudo aptitude install build-essential
[10:14] <christian_> like getting the sound to work... been doing this for 2 days now :D, makes me wana commit seppuku for crying out loud :P
[10:14] <UltaMike> its asking me for the ubuntu-server 7.04 _feisty fawn_
[10:14] <CyberCod> kolmilludo, thats a pretty well documented problem, you should find something easily in the forums
[10:14] <UltaMike> and i put the cd in
[10:14] <UltaMike> and it still is saying it
[10:14] <kagemaro> christian_ whats wrong with sound?
[10:14] <UltaMike> what do i do
[10:14] <gbjk_> Okay - one more time.
[10:14] <Enul> kagemaro i dont know if they support linux but super can do that
[10:14] <milanl> christian_ what sounds card?
[10:14] <kagemaro> Enul - what is super?
[10:15] <gbjk_> Can anyone give me advice about getting wlan to work automatically under xfce (xubuntu)
[10:15] <kolmilludo> CyberCode: the thing is ive tried but boom and nothing
[10:15] <velko> Ranbee, scp is fast and secure
[10:15] <root___> nickrud: nickrud it just says cannot read from -i
[10:15] <christian_> nothing can be wrong with somethines that doesn't exist, heh? :(
[10:15] <j0han_> nickrud you know everything about ubuntu? :)
[10:15] <benanz1> Ranbee: scp is secure, but not *incredibly* fast.  SMB is faster.
[10:15] <milanl> christian_: you dont have a sound card?
[10:15] <christian_> HDA VIA VT82xx onboard soundcard
[10:15] <nickrud> root__, rich@aias:~$ pastebinit -i /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[10:15] <nickrud> http://paste.stgraber.org/3259
[10:15] <Enul> kagemaro super is a program that will convert any video format into any other video format
[10:15] <christian_> I do I do, but no sound will come out
[10:15] <astroraptor> hi, I tried to install the nvidia drivers, but on start up I get a message saying that X failed to start. I have a nVidia 8500GT
[10:15] <kagemaro> Enul - does it work in Linux?
[10:15] <milanl> christian_: what sound card?
[10:15] <Messia1> benanzl:ok i selected failsafe terminal. now what?
[10:15] <Enul> that i cant tell you
[10:15] <christian_> HDA VIA VT82xx
[10:16] <benanz1> login with your username/passord
[10:16] <milanl> astroraptor: try the nvidia beta drivers from nvidia site
[10:16] <root___> nickrud: il try it now
[10:16] <kagemaro> Enul - does it work in wine?
[10:16] <Enul> but you might try googleing it and checking it out
[10:16] <christian_> milanl, HDA VIA VT82xx
[10:16] <nickrud> j0han_, not even close. Just the stuff that's in common with debian, mostly.
[10:16] <Enul> i dont know i just moved from windows a couple of days ago
[10:16] <Ranbee> great, velko and benanz1. what i'll do is try them both. i think smb is fast between to linuxes??
[10:16] <jmgii> Hello everyone. I'm getting the following error when I attempt to install updates: E: /var/cache/apt/archives/tar_1.16-2ubuntu0.1_i386.deb: files list file for package `xserver-xorg-video-all' is missing final newline

[10:16] <hopender> How do I install new themes I downloaded?
[10:17] <velko> Ranbee, no idea. never used it
[10:17] <CyberCod> kagemaro looks like you may be able to do it with mencoder (mplayer) via command line
[10:17] <benanz1> Ranbee: SMB is especially fast between two linuxes
[10:17] <milanl> christian_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[10:17] <astroraptor> I tried before but it told me that I couldn't run the installer from the GUI or something to that effect
[10:17] <root___> nickrud: no luck the program just dont work
[10:17] <CyberCod> its a good place to start looking anyway
[10:17] <Messia1> benanzl:when i login i get this message. | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35964/plain/
[10:17] <christian_> milanl, I've done everything it sais on that page 2 times
[10:17] <hopender> How do I install new themes I downloaded?
[10:17] <j0han_> nickrud ok just asking because I want to know how secure ubuntu is... i run openbsd and that has only had 2 remote holes in over 10 years
[10:17] <Ranbee> ok thanks for the help velko benanz1 :)
[10:17] <milanl> astroraptor: wait a second :)

[10:18] <milanl> astroraptor: http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_100.14.03.html
[10:18] <YgorOnLine> good evening to everyone

[10:18] <sahil> hey, i just installed AWN but it doesnt seem to be working/launching can someone help me out?
[10:18] <milanl> astroraptor: there you can download the drivers, do it :)
[10:18] <nickrud> j0han_, don't know, really. I used to read the debian-security mail list, but it got boring. Everything got fixed too fast, no night sweats ;)
[10:18] <kagemaro> christian_ did you say its an Intel HDA?
[10:18] <gbjk_> Can anyone help me with how roaming wlan should work in xfce ?
[10:18] <benanz1> Messia1: you get that when logging into the Failsafe Terminal?
[10:19] <nickrud> pastebinit -i /var/log/Xorg.0.log  or try "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" root___ (you keep getting longer ;)
[10:19] <christian_> kagemaro, HDA yes
[10:19] <z0rz> I've created a short guide to installing all the stuff you want, after you have installed Ubuntu.  I'd like to have some people test it out.  I don't know if It's against the rules to post the link here so, please PM if you are interested.  It based toward Gnome users wanting anything from Compiz-fusion to LAMP to Pidgin
[10:19] <kagemaro> christian_ does it work at all but quiet, or not at all?
[10:19] <jurgentje> when I plug a usb drive (stick or hard drive) to my Ubuntu (7.04), every drive appears twice on my desktop... anyone here who knows this problem?
[10:19] <hopender> How do I install new themes I downloaded?
[10:19] <christian_> kagemaro, not at all, no beeps, music, buzzing noises. nada. nothing :P
[10:19] <root___> be right back :(
[10:19] <sahil> some help with AWN please?
[10:19] <Messia1> benanzl:yes
[10:20] <pen> how can i install C++
[10:20] <z0rz> !ask | sahil
[10:20] <ubotu> sahil: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:20] <benanz1> Messia1: do you get a prompt at all?
[10:20] <kagemaro> christian_ - I have an Intel HDA, it used to run very quiet, I'll try to dig up what I changed
[10:20] <arash> !C++  | pen
[10:20] <crimsun> pen: sudo aptitude install build-essential
[10:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about c++ - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:20] <pen> yes
[10:20] <sahil> ok, so, i just installed AWN, and its in accessories and i restarted, and beryl is on but it just isnt launching
[10:20] <Messia1> benanzl:no
[10:20] <gbjk_> WLAN with XFCE, help please.
[10:20] <pen> just prompt
[10:20] <kagemaro> christian_ - can you see if /dev/dsp works?
[10:20] <nickrud> lol
[10:20] <christian_> kagemaro, ty i'd appreciate that
[10:20] <pen> no I can't see
[10:20] <astroraptor> milani: thanks, it says I can't run from X server
[10:20] <j0han_> nickrud so there as no need to install that java I found at Add/Remove... I should just installed java6 instead?
[10:20] <gbjk_> If I have to keep shortening and repeating it's just going to get silly.
[10:21] <z0rz> sahil: Go to: System>Preferences->Sessions->And add a new program called "avant-window-navigator" with the command "avant-window-navigator"
[10:21] <CyberCod> kagemaro this looks promising   http://www.howforge.com/how-to-convert-avi-to-wmv-by-mencoder
[10:21] <pen> Add/remove...  ?no C++ there
[10:21] <nickrud> j0han_, yes. I don't know why they put that in there
[10:21] <christian_> kagemaro, at first I don't have permission, I use sudo and put my psw in, then it tells me there are no such commands
[10:21] <milanl> astroraptor: sorry, i think i gave you old drivers
[10:21] <z0rz> CyberCod: Why would you ever want to leave avi for wmv?
[10:21] <sahil> Z0rz but that will just add it to start-up
[10:21] <rafaelscj> whats the extesion of bash scripts?
[10:21] <j0han_> nickrud prbly to make people like me confused :)
[10:21] <z0rz> sahil .. right
[10:22] <z0rz> sahil: Isn't that the problem you are having?
[10:22] <Messia1> who can help me with this problem? | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35964/plain/
[10:22] <lee1> nickrud: it only works if i drop the -i
[10:22] <j0han_> I thought I did it right but I was wrong
[10:22] <burito> pen: there is no "C++" package, the GNU world has a tool called "g++" to compile C++ code
[10:22] <CyberCod> Not I, friend
[10:22] <z0rz> Press Alt-F2 and type: avant-window-navigator
[10:22] <gbjk_> rafaelscj: Extensions aren't important.
[10:22] <lee1> nickrud: is that still any good to you?
[10:22] <gbjk_> But fwiw, .sh
[10:22] <Nuked> you know, leaving the recovery console without password protection of some sort is an incredibly bad idea... Is there any way I can assign a password?
[10:22] <rafaelscj> ok
[10:22] <nickrud> lee1, strange. Well, that's good. Just give me the link
[10:22] <christian_> kagemaro, so no, doens't work
[10:22] <CyberCod> dude wants to put some videos on his 360
[10:22] <milanl> astroraptor: http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_100.14.11.html <-- latest nvidia 8xxx drivers
[10:22] <benanz1> Messia1: when you're at the terminal, and you type your username and password, it gives you that error, right?  Then what happens?
[10:23] <kagemaro> z0rz - It's to stream video to my Xbox 360
[10:23] <z0rz> CyberCod: Oh.. meh.. well in that case ;) I thought the 360 released a patch now that allows divx playback
[10:23] <Messia1> benanzl:is not doing nothing.
[10:23] <CyberCod> that would be a better way to go IMHO
[10:23] <kagemaro> z0rz - It only accepts WMV and MP4 format
[10:23] <lee1> nickrud: http://paste.stgraber.org/3260
[10:23] <CyberCod> I don't have a 360 myself
[10:23] <christian_> kagemaro, I could sudo nano it though, it just opens an empty buffer
[10:23] <CyberCod> hell, I don't even have a TV
[10:23] <CyberCod> ;)
[10:23] <z0rz> kagemaro: Alright.. well don't convert too many videos.  The rumor in the rumor mills is they are going to start supporting divx soon
[10:23] <benanz1> Messia1: after you get the error, hit CTRL-C
[10:23] <DagonIT> how do I make grub "active"?
[10:23] <j0han_> nickrud it installs sun--java6-jre automatic when I install sun-java6-plugin
[10:23] <kagemaro> christian_ what does alsamixer say>?
[10:23] <Nuked> anyone here that can help me address my issue?
[10:23] <astroraptor> milani: thanks again
[10:24] <kagemaro> z0rz - I have a big HDD :3
[10:24] <christian_> kagemaro, alsamixer is fine
[10:24] <CyberCod> can anyone tell me how to find out what the /dev location is of a usb device?
[10:24] <kagemaro> christian_ - does the volume show at 100%?
[10:24] <ScorpKing> Nuked: create a root password.
[10:24] <z0rz> kagemaro: Well I have over 2TB's here but I don't want to convert all my videos to wmv.. they'd take weeks
[10:24] <nickrud> Nuked, put in a bios password or a grub password. If you're concerned about physical security, weld it into a steel cabinet :)
[10:24] <milanl> astroraptor: you're welcome
[10:24] <christian_> kagemaro, yes of course :)
[10:24] <Messia1> benanzl:is not working.
[10:24] <nickrud> j0han_, good. I'll remember that
[10:25] <Drod> is it normal for avidemux to take very long to start?
[10:25] <goundy> guys, I've a problem, i use KATE uner ubuntu but I don't have the terminal on it... Just take a look: http://img409.imageshack.us/img409/2619/screenshot1dp0.png
[10:25] <goundy> an idea?
[10:25] <Nuked> nickrud... this thing is practically in a safe!
[10:25] <z0rz> christian_: Check in alsamixer and see if everythign is turned up in there
[10:25] <CyberCod> Kagemaro, here look at this    http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tweaktown.com%2Farticles%2F1002%2Fplaying_divx_and_xvid_content_on_xbox_360_an_easy_guide%2Findex.html&ei=j8rZRuCMJpWSiwH2gtjHCQ&usg=AFQjCNFDCXc_rExOD_PUlpjl3wAO2t2U_Q&sig2=rn6z7-yqzLhrfK0ZwlWVfw
[10:25] <benanz1> are there any other users on the system?  someone else you could log into temporarily
[10:25] <rafaelscj> gbjk_, how do I create a shortcut for wine aplication?
[10:25] <lee1> nickrud: did that link work?
[10:25] <christian_> z0rz, it is, I even tried turning IEC off ones cos it had helped some other guy, didn't help me though
[10:25] <Messia1> can some1 help me fix this problem | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35964/plain/?
[10:25] <j0han_> nickrud is debian much more complicated then ubuntu or can a linux newbie like me figure debian out also?
[10:25] <nickrud> lee1, it got past me. Looking now
[10:25] <inbitado34> a nice p2p not amule or emule ???
[10:25] <jurgentje> when I plug a usb drive (stick or hard drive) to my Ubuntu (7.04), every drive appears twice on my desktop... anyone here who knows this problem?
[10:26] <inbitado34> neather frostwire
[10:26] <lee1> nickrud: ok mate
[10:26] <sahil_> ms
[10:26] <sahil_> z0rz did you get my message i think my connection was cut
[10:26] <nickrud> j0han_, stay with ubuntu for about 6 months, then try debian. I waited a year with redhat and friends before I was willing to take the plung
[10:26] <z0rz> Messia1: I can Oh OH pick me I'll help
[10:26] <rafaelscj> gbjk_, like a game installed by wine
[10:26] <j0han_> nickrud ok
[10:26] <z0rz> Messia1: Have you chmod'd ~/.dmrc to 644 yet?
[10:26] <Messia1> z0rz:ok how can i fix it
[10:26] <lee1> nickrud: wats the dif between ubuntu and debian
[10:27] <kagemaro> CyberCod - is mpeg to wmv any easier? the comment here says that doesnt work
[10:27] <Messia1> z0rz:i suck useing ubuntu.
[10:27] <z0rz> Messia1: Ok just run this command: sudo chmod -R 755 ~
[10:27] <sahil_> z0rz can you please repeat what you think is the solution to the non-working AWN problem?
[10:27] <benanz1> z0rz: he cant get a login, the terminal hangs after getting that error.
[10:27] <Messia1> z0rz:i run this command in the recovery mode?
[10:28] <nickrud> lee, ok, your vertical refresh and horizontal refresh are bad, see lines 471 & 472
[10:28] <z0rz> sahil_: Please explain what happens when you run avant-window-manager
[10:28] <z0rz> benanz1: Oh
[10:28] <z0rz> Messia1: Yes
[10:28] <lee1> nickrud: no do i change these in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:28] <velko> j0han_, if you want to try debian proper the easy way take a look at sidux
[10:28] <nickrud> lee1, see above. And ubuntu puts a really nice layer of configuration on debian, very roughly
[10:28] <benanz1> z0rz: it is a GDM permissions problem which is easily fixed if he can get a login
[10:28] <sahil_> z0rz nothing happens
[10:28] <j0han_> velko whats sidux?
[10:29] <z0rz> Messia1: Actually if you are in recovery mode you probably should run: sudo chmod -R 755 /home/YOURUSERNAMEHERE
[10:29] <zitner> Heylo, can anyone help me with my media player.  Every time I try to run a video it says, Erro opening/initializing the sleected video_out (-vo) device????
[10:29] <velko> j0han_, distro based on debian unstable (sid). it uses the debian repos unlike ubuntu
[10:29] <j0han_> ok
[10:29] <lee1> nickrud: so whats the better dist for playing World of Warcraft on :P i was getting 30-40fps using wine with wow but someone told me to change my driver to the nvidia-glx ones
[10:29] <z0rz> sahil_: Try typing that in a terminal window and see what error it gives (Applications->Accessories->Terminal->Type: avant-window-navigator -> Enter
[10:29] <velko> j0han_, its done by the pals from kanotix - very competent people
[10:29] <lee1> nickrud: anyways do i need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf for the refresh rate things
[10:30] <nickrud> lee1, yes. It says it's using the ones from the config; try commenting out the ones in the config and restarting X. If you're lucky, X will recognize your monitor
[10:30] <j0han_> well I thinking of migrate from bsd to linux so I want to try debian
[10:30] <BrMiHi08> I need a little bit of help....
[10:30] <aguitel> how install Nvidia drivers ?
[10:30] <z0rz> Messia1: Are you using XGL for your X session?
[10:30] <benanz1> Messia1: when at the login window hit CTRL-ALT-F2.  that will take you to a fullscreen terminal, try logging in there
[10:30] <lee1> nickrud: it should do its a 22" widescreen Iiyama monitor ;)
[10:30] <nickrud> lee1, no clue, I don't use wine
[10:30] <greentree> how do I  format an external hard dive to ext3?
[10:30] <lee1> nickrud: brb testing this :(
[10:30] <BrMiHi08> I am trying to install ubuntu 7.04 and the install screen won't fit my monitor because I cannot edit my resolution
[10:30] <benanz1> Messia1: that will bypass GDM's permission-checking so we can fix it
[10:31] <Messia1> z0rz:i got this message. " sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0666, should be 0440"
[10:31] <z0rz> Messia1: In recovery console or when you try doing that in "Ctrl+Alt+F2"?
[10:32] <Flannel> Messia1: You'll need to boot to the recovery console and fix that
[10:32] <BrMiHi08> it is also telling my something about restricted drivers for my nvidia graphics card then it tell me to reboot once I install it and I am running off the live CD
[10:32] <sahil_> z0rz this is what it says (process:10247): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: gtype.c:2242: initialization assertion failed, use IA__g_type_init() prior to this function
[10:32] <sahil_> (process:10247): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_new: assertion `G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT (object_type)' failed

[10:32] <sahil_> Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[10:32] <j0han_> nickrud I installed java6 now and updated/changed to java6 as default but it still doesnt work :(
[10:32] <CyberCod> can anyone tell me how to find out what the /dev location is of a usb device?
[10:32] <z0rz> sahil_: Please use pastebin to paste more than 2 lines!

[10:33] <zitner> Heylo
[10:33] <z0rz> sahil_: Well you got me on that one.. I'm not sure.  Check in #ubuntu-effects or maybe even #compiz-fusion (although they aren't required to help you there)
[10:33] <velko> CyberCod, sorry "sudo sfdisk -l"
[10:33] <BrMiHi08> hmmm

[10:35] <nickrud> j0han_, that's a flash game site; sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree (or at least, the sudoku is)
[10:35] <hopender> What are some awesome things I should download??
[10:35] <pen> I can't open the film,which format  rm
[10:35] <z0rz> BrMiHi08: What graphics card do you have?
[10:36] <velko> CyberCod, i have no experience with irda but you may try "sudo lsusb -v" and look at the system log after plugging the device
[10:36] <z0rz> CyberCod: Does lsusb help?
[10:36] <lee1> nickrud: nope didnt detect my monitor
[10:36] <z0rz> hopender: I'll give you a command .. hold on ;)
[10:36] <BrMiHi08> z0rz- it is a Geforce 6100
[10:36] <nickrud> lee1, then find the specs , and plug 'em in
[10:36] <BrMiHi08> it even knows what monitor I have
[10:36] <CyberCod> lsusb doesn't tell what /dev they are
[10:36] <pen> I just install C++,how can I get it to work?
[10:36] <lee1> nickrud: i cant find the specs i have no graphical browser lol
[10:37] <z0rz> BrMiHi08: Did you install the Nvidia restricted drivers?
[10:37] <pen> I just install C++,how can I get it to work?
[10:37] <nickrud> lee1, you can google with lynx, I've done it
[10:37] <Gener1c> are you talking about lspci
[10:37] <hopender> z0rz: Do you use wine? How do I make it so that when I run counter-strike it isnt transparentish
[10:37] <BrMiHi08> yea but then it tells me I have to reboot, and I am on the live CD
[10:37] <MilitantPotato> How do you view a version number of a program?
[10:37] <TheMetavirus> Hi!  I was wondering if somebody could help point me in the right direction for an issue I am having.  I am looking for a way to encrypt all the linux partitions on my harddrive.  This would hopefully prompt for a password, which would then be hashed into the key to unlock the partitions.  I believe this would be the security I am looking for.  By default, the recovery console makes it too easy for anyone accessing the physical c
[10:37] <j0han_> nickrud do I need to reboot or something after the install?
[10:37] <lee1> nickrud: how did i know u were gunna say that ;)
[10:37] <nickrud> MilitantPotato, apt-cache policy <package>
[10:37] <arash_> pen , what you mean u installed C++, im no expert, but do you mean u installed the compiler? I would recommend having an IDE with it
[10:37] <velko> pen, your question does not make sense. do you know what c++ is atall?
[10:37] <nickrud> lee1, heh ;)
[10:38] <BrMiHi08> z0rz-yea but then it tells me I have to reboot, and I am on the live CD
[10:38] <Messia1> does any one  know how to fix this,  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35970/plain/?
[10:38] <lee1> nickrud: got any search tips ? xserver iiyama 22" widescreen monitor refresh rates? something like that
[10:38] <nickrud> j0han_, no. You might have missed my previous, install flashplugin-nonfree
[10:38] <z0rz> hopender: Do you have compiz-fusion or any desktop effects working?
[10:38] <hopender> Yeah
[10:38] <pen> let me check the IDE
[10:38] <z0rz> BrMiHi08: Heh.. well install ubuntu first silly
[10:38] <nickrud> lee1, yeah, but I'll leave out the xserver part. Best bet is the manufacturer's site
[10:38] <hopender> well
[10:38] <hopender> not the cool ones
[10:38] <hopender> like the cool little flame looking thing when I right click then like make it go away
[10:38] <hopender> or if i exit a program
[10:38] <lee1> nickrud: well they give href and vref?
[10:38] <nickrud> lee1, and some numbers off the back of the monitor
[10:38] <BrMiHi08> z0rz- guess I'll do that
[10:39] <nickrud> lee1, that's it
[10:39] <inbitado34> z0rz i have compiz-fusion working everything
[10:39] <z0rz> inbitado34: Cool
[10:39] <lee1> nickrud: brb ;)
[10:39] <TheMetavirus> On a second note, anyone who could help, please query me.  I'll be away from my machine for a moment
[10:39] <pen> I just can program C++ under window xp,How can I do that under ubuntu?
[10:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Messia1: HAve you run gui apps with sudo or used root acces for anything recently, or used automatix or envy?
[10:39] <z0rz> hopender: Well, I'll give you my guide.. but no guarentees.  It removes the current effects so that it can install the newer compiz-fusion.  Here ya go: http://z0rz.com
[10:39] <j0han_> nickrud I checked out sudoku... that game is for flashplayer and works fine for me since I installed flashplayer... but many of them other games are java and wont work
[10:40] <Messia1> jack_sparrow:nooo
[10:40] <arash_> pen, try add/remove programs then install eclipse, I think it is C++ IDE with compiler
[10:40] <pen> ok ,let me try
[10:40] <ubuntu_intall_gu> Hi all! Help really needed! Ive installed a 160 GB HD on my fathers computer and installed Ubuntu on it. Now I get GRUB error 18, which basically means that the HD is to large for the BIOS. Can I fix this without reinstalling Ubuntu???
[10:41] <astroraptor> milani: if you're still here, just wanted to tell you I finally installed the latest nvidia drivers, thanks for your help
[10:41] <rockets> I just booted up the Xubuntu live cd and its prompting me for a username and password at the X login screen.
[10:41] <rockets> What gives?
[10:41] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu_intall_gu: You might run livecd and resize it by about 20 gig or whatever to get under the limit
[10:41] <Messia1> jack_sparrow: who do i fix this?
[10:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Messia1: Not enough to go on.. try explaining what you have done recently  or installed recently
[10:42] <pen> There is no matching application available.
[10:42] <pen> To broaden your search, choose 'Show all Open Source applications' or 'Show all available' applications.
[10:42] <j0han_> nickrud even that I changed to java6 as default (*) it says + at java 1.4 when I type sudo update-alternatives
[10:42] <pen> how can I do?
[10:42] <ubuntu_intall_gu> Jack_Sparrow: Im running th LiveCD now... I cant fix this by hacking GRUB in any way?
[10:43] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu_intall_gu: NOt if it is a bios issue
[10:43] <christian_> when installing from the livecd, if you choose to give linux the full ( in my case 160GB ) space, does it really format the whole drive for you automatically? The reason I'm asking is because I've already 'magically' used up over 20GB with only installing the OS + it's updates.
[10:43] <arash_> pen - hmm, then just search for C++
[10:43] <christian_> ubuntu fiesty with gnome that is
[10:44] <ubuntu_intall_gu> Jack_Sparrow: but if i reinstall and make sure that the boot section is within the adressable area if the HD?
[10:44] <pen> oh ,i can see eclispe

[10:44] <z0rz> hopender:

[10:44] <Messia1> jack_sparrow: i used this live cd. then i access the hard disk. and i when to /etc/X11/ and delete the files not folders.
[10:45] <Gener1c> http://www.bash.org/?5300
[10:45] <reduzio> hi people
[10:45] <Gener1c> lol!!
[10:45] <z0rz> hopender: Yeah My bad.. You weren't supposed to close that window til after step 3
[10:45] <hopender> oh
[10:45] <hopender> taco nugget
[10:45] <reduzio> QUESTION: is there any way for someone who just installed ubuntu 7.04 to configure their pppoe (ADSL) connection from some menu?
[10:45] <Jack_Sparrow> christian_: where are you getting the 20 gig figure? based on what the drive is suppoed to hold and how much you have free... that is not a good indicator of acutal spaced used.
[10:46] <Journeyman> I am installing Ubuntu on a machine I plan to sell, is there a way to have it so when it boots up it asks for the user to input the info for a username and password
[10:46] <nickrud> j0han_, sudo update-alternatives --config firefox-javaplugin.so
[10:46] <Journeyman> or atleast force a password change apon login?
[10:46] <christian_> jack_sparrow:  I pulled it out of the equation of 160-140GB free space left
[10:46] <z0rz> reduz: sudo pppoeconf
[10:46] <nickrud> j0han_, the old plugin used to follow the jre, but I can understand the change
[10:46] <Jack_Sparrow> christian_: That is the wrong way
[10:46] <christian_> jack_sparrow: is this wrong?
[10:46] <reduz> z0rz, is that console?
[10:47] <christian_> jack_sparrow: oh ok :P
[10:47] <Jack_Sparrow> christian_: The format process takes up sapce... doesnt matter windows or ubuntu
[10:47] <z0rz> reduz: Yeah.. but it gives you a sort of gui in the terminal
[10:47] <christian_> jack_sparrow: what is the correct way, if I may?
[10:47] <hopender> wtf!! z0rz!!!!!!
[10:47] <hopender> After unpacking, 28.6MB disk space will be freed.
[10:47] <hopender> Do you want to continue [Y/n] ? Y
[10:47] <reduz> z0rz, hmm, i suppose it doesn't come with any sort of gnome-gui for that, right?
[10:47] <hopender> Abort.
[10:47] <z0rz> reduz: Nope
[10:47] <christian_> jack_sparrow: I see...
[10:47] <Jack_Sparrow> christian_: Use nautilus to look at actual used...
[10:47] <fulio> whats the command to edit files?
[10:48] <christian_> jack_sparrow, ok, thank you :)
[10:48] <Jack_Sparrow> christian_: Format a hard drive and check free space before installing anything...
[10:48] <Messia1> can some1 help me fix this problem http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35970/plain/?
[10:48] <z0rz> fulio: gedit /home/fulio/myfile.txt
[10:48] <Jack_Sparrow> christian_: You will be horrified at the overhead form,atting takes
[10:48] <christian_> jack_sparrow, haha, should've done that before installing ubuntu then :D
[10:48] <reduz> guess no ubuntu then :( been specifically asked that to connect and browse the internet it must not need any kind of console tweaking
[10:49] <z0rz> fulio: or if it's a system file: gksudo gedit /etc/super/secure/system.file
[10:49] <mora> anyone know if they updated iwl4965 to 1.0.0.* in gutsy latest yet?
[10:49] <Jack_Sparrow> christian_: think of a blank piece of paper... how much of the page is wasted with lines and page numbers before you write anything
[10:49] <MrObvious> Messia1: I'd be tempted to say remove the file manually. I don't have linux in front of me to know for sure.
[10:49] <z0rz> mora: #ubuntu+1
[10:49] <fulio> z0rz, i need to edit xorg.conf
[10:49] <mora> thanks
[10:49] <lee2> nickrud: i just get places selling the monitor lol no luck at all the model of the monitor is LP2200 any chance you can take a look on a graphical browser test is just way to hard to find anything
[10:49] <hopender> z0rz: Why does it do that to me
[10:49] <z0rz> fulio: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:49] <hopender> is it some kind of sick joke
[10:49] <christian_> jack_sparrow, nice comparision :)
[10:50] <velko> Journeyman, you can set expiration time for passwords in /etc/login.defs
[10:50] <Messia1> mrobvious: can u find some1 to hlep me fix it?
[10:50] <z0rz> hopender: instead of typing Y or w/e just press enter
[10:50] <Jack_Sparrow> christian_: Common misintrepetation
[10:50] <hopender> z0rz: Still aborts
[10:50] <christian_> jack_sparrow, :D
[10:50] <z0rz> hopender: Pastebin the problem please
[10:50] <Journeyman> velko: if I remove the password hash from shadow will that make the password null?
[10:50] <reduz> z0rz, any idea if there is any hope for next versions to include anything like that (from a gui)? I just have an internet cafe customer who wants to use linux in his machines, but refuses to learn an any distro that needs console tweaking
[10:51] <Zhohar> Hey guys, I changed my video driver in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf to nv from vesa, and now I get an error from my monitor when I boot ubuntu. Is there a way to fix this? (I"M completely new to ubuntu, by the way)
[10:51] <ice109> can someone help me out with commands
[10:51] <ice109> im a newb
[10:51] <velko> Journeyman, yes. but remove just the hash. if you remove the whole line you'll delete the user
[10:51] <Jack_Sparrow> Zhohar: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:51] <Journeyman> right I know that
[10:51] <hopender> http://pastebin.com/mc1f4550
[10:51] <Messia1> can i go to another channel, that will help me fix this problem, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35970/plain/?
[10:51] <fulio> z0rz, thankyou
[10:52] <ice109> does anyone know what MailWatcher for xfce is?
[10:52] <MrObvious> Messia1: cat /home/username/.dmrc and PM me the output please. You can do /query MrObvious to PM me.
[10:52] <Zhohar> Jack_Sparrow: But I can't get into ubuntu itself to open terminal.
[10:52] <ice109> or maybe theres a similar panel plugin for gnome?
[10:52] <pen> and who can tell me how to install QQ?
[10:52] <z0rz> reduz: Don't know. I'm sure their will be soon.. but he could run sudo pppoeconf in Alt+F2 and check run in terminal.. you could also make it were it doesn't require a password to sudo so he'd just see a configuration menu (try it yourself) .. by the way making it not require a password to sudo is EXTREMELY insecure.. but people do it...
[10:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Zhohar: HIt escape on boot for recovery mode
[10:52] <ubuntu_intall_gu> Im doing a reinstall, can I make sure that tha boot partition is placed in the absolute beginning of the HD?
[10:52] <joakim> how do you install ubuntu on a usb stick?
[10:52] <Zhohar> Jack_Sparrow: Thank you sir. I shall do that. Be back in a moment.
[10:52] <Messia1> mrobvious: i dont understand u?
[10:52] <z0rz> fulio: No problem
[10:52] <j0han_> nickrud this might take a while my internetconnection is slow but thanks for all the help I will try to figure it out
[10:52] <pen> who can tell me how to install QQ?
[10:53] <nickrud> j0han_, sure
[10:53] <ice109> i have a very simple problem, where are the "executables" for programs?
[10:53] <Jack_Sparrow> joakim: I found a good site for that with google.. let me see if I can find it again
[10:53] <joakim> Jack_Sparrow thanks =)
[10:53] <MilitantPotato> I was just reading that site
[10:53] <z0rz> Messia1: You should just need to sudo chmod -R 755 /home/YOURUSERNAME in Ctrl+Alt+F2
[10:54] <hopender> z0rz: http://pastebin.com/mc1f4550
[10:54] <MrObvious> Messia1: Type cat /home/(username) and paste the output to your IRC client then private message me the results.
[10:54] <MrObvious> Messia1: Err... cat /home/(username)/.dmrc
[10:54] <velko> ice109, most of them are in /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin and /usr/sbin

[10:54] <ice109> i have this program called mail watcher
[10:54] <ice109> that checks my inbox every once in a while
[10:55] <spiderskull> ice109 - There's no file extensions, fyi, so there's no easy way to tell off of the filename alone
[10:55] <z0rz> hopender: Did you follow step one correctly?
[10:55] <velko> ice109, watcher
[10:55] <ice109> yea
[10:55] <Scunizi> !enter | ice109
[10:55] <ubotu> ice109: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[10:55] <reduz> z0rz, well, he's basically paying me to teach him how to build such a system with a linux distro, because of cost obviously, but he explicitly stated that he doesn't want to even touch a console. I thought ubuntu was the best distro for this, but i'm kind of dissapointed, will have to try other ones
[10:55] <velko> ice109, which watcher
[10:55] <hopender> I think I did
[10:55] <andre_pl> what do the 2 float-ish values in a ps aux represent?
[10:55] <lee2> can anyone help me find the vertical and horizontal refresh rates of my monitor
[10:55] <Messia1> MrObvious:tell me step by step?
[10:55] <ice109> velko
[10:55] <andre_pl> 2.4 and 0.6  the first keeps dropping
[10:55] <ice109> velko: what do you mean
[10:55] <MrObvious> Messia1: Nevermind. Maybe someone else can answer it.
[10:55] <velko> ice109, the command you are looking for is "which watcher"
[10:55] <MilitantPotato> lee2: I had to boot into windows to find that.  Google was of no help.
[10:55] <velko> ice109, it will tell you where the executable "watcher" is located
[10:56] <z0rz> reduz: Haha! Good luck.  Ubuntu probably is the best one for it.  But there are just some things that you'll have to touch a terminal for (even in windows) if you are going to be setting up a internet cafe..
[10:56] <MrObvious> Messia1: Try this: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-91455.html
[10:56] <interplay> how do i add some program to my repo list?
[10:56] <lee2> MilitantPotato: google is of no use in shell i have no windows installed nor do i have the xp disk with me :(
[10:56] <ice109> velko: can i use which [application]  to find others?
[10:56] <velko> ice109, yep
[10:56] <MilitantPotato> lee2: there's supposedly a GUI for xorg.conf floating around
[10:56] <z0rz> reduz: If you are setting up a linux/unix box for a firewall/router then I'd suggest smoothwall or pfsense
[10:56] <MilitantPotato> It's in early alpha though
[10:56] <Jack_Sparrow> interplay: You dont add programs to your repo list
[10:57] <ice109> velko: now in watcher it asks which program i want to launch upon clicking, do i reference the location of that executable to get watcher to launch my mail program
[10:57] <reduz> z0rz, he wants to use the same thing for both routing and the rest of the machines

[10:57] <dug_> lee2: what's your monitor model number
[10:57] <lee2> MilitantPotato: problem is mate i cant use a gui and xserver doesnt auto detect my monitor so the refresh rates are screwed all i got to do is put the hrefresh and v refresh details in and im sorted
[10:57] <velko> ice109, it seems so. i don't know watcher specificaly though
[10:57] <hopender> z0rz: Fixed it, I was typing feisty fawn non-free instead of feisty free non-free

[11:00] <nickrud> lee2, yeah, its flash heavy
[11:00] <ice109> *work, and i can't seem to nail the name of thunderbird for some reason
[11:00] <pen> I tried ,but it doesn't work.
[11:00] <lee2> nickrud: thanks man testing now ;)
[11:00] <christian_> And Australia is like: Double you tee eff mates??
[11:00] <martin___> hi everyone, i just upgraded my kernel, and my graphics card and wireless adapter seem to have stopped working.. is there an easy way to downgrade/ fix this?
[11:01] <dug_> lee2: yeah the refresh rates are there
[11:01] <z0rz> hopender: TACO NUGGETS! This isn't junk!
[11:01] <Messia1> what is the command to access terminal from recovery mode?
[11:01] <hopender> z0rz: XD
[11:01] <ltar> where is xorg.conf?
[11:01] <velko> ice109, do you know which package you installed in order to install thunderbird?
[11:01] <hopender> z0rz: Its junk if its a word followed by 031600z06z060wa60a06
[11:01] <martin___> /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:01] <vocx> z0rz, hopender you are going off topic.
[11:01] <ltar> thanks
[11:01] <hopender> lol my bad
[11:01] <lee2> ok guys going testing this out be right back to let you know how i go on :D and i have now mastered sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf lol
[11:01] <z0rz> hopender: Oh that's installing avant-window-navigator
[11:02] <ice109> velko: it was in the base install of xubuntu, is the name of the package in synaptic the name i should be using with the which command?
[11:02] <fransth> hi all
[11:02] <fransth> anyone can help my new notebook 17"
[11:02] <hopender> z0rz: Booo I just won't use it, but wth, 3 hours 9 minutes? I'm not on dial up is this normal?!?!
[11:02] <dug_> lee2: remember to make a backup copy of your xorg.conf, you may need to revert
[11:02] <fransth> the resolution max is 1024
[11:02] <hopender> ok its 52 minutes now.. but still
[11:02] <velko> ice109, no. but you can find it out this way:
[11:02] <z0rz> hopender: Come to #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:02] <ice109> velko: how
[11:02] <fransth> i want to change to 1600, but there is not choice to change those resolution
[11:02] <velko> ice109, find the package which installed thunderbird: apt-cache search thunderbird
[11:02] <martin___> is there a way to downgrade the kernel? i.e. switch to the previous version?
[11:03] <Messia1> how do i use terminal?
[11:03] <fransth> anyone, know where is the place to change the monitor type, to change the max resolution to 1600
[11:03] <ice109> velko: found package name, now what?
[11:03] <dug_> martin___: when you boot and see grub, can you select an older kernel from the list?
[11:03] <vocx> martin___, if you installed your stuff by compiling something, you may need to recompile.
[11:03] <velko> ice109, after that lookup the exact executable name: dpkg -L PACKAGENAME | grep bin
[11:03] <lkjqe223> ubuntu_intall_gu: did someone answer your question about grub error 18?
[11:03] <martin___> vocx, i just installed the updates from the repository, and it has broken everything
[11:04] <martin___> dug_, nope, the list doesn't show
[11:04] <ltar> I have an installation of ubuntu on an old hard drive, and Im running an install. Can i import all settings, etc, from the old to the new?
[11:04] <ice109> velko: for my own knowledge what do the commands mean? i know dpkg is a package manager but what does | mean and what does grep mean, i'm guessing -L means locate
[11:04] <vocx> martin___, with kernel upgrades you get new kernel headers, so you may need to recompile things like graphics and internet drivers, like ndiswrapper.
[11:04] <lee2> ok that didnt work :9
[11:05] <lee2> nickrud: no luc
[11:05] <VincentMX> woohoo
[11:05] <xertux> i ll pay 3 millions of dolar to the solver of my problem ! :(
[11:05] <velko> ltar, just copy the content of your old home directory. you'll get most of the settings
[11:05] <pen> Eclipse is java,not C++
[11:05] <lee2> nickrud: also why doesnt X show everything as generic?
[11:05] <dug_> ltar: probably there are better answers, but most of your preferences are stored in your home folder, with names beginning with a period, you can copy those over
[11:05] <martin___> vocx, my wireless card was detected by feisty out of the box, i;m just using drivers from the repos
[11:05] <Pie-rate> is there any way to set rhythmbox to minimize to notification area icon when i hit the close button?
[11:05] <VincentMX> so now i can bother the entire world with my ranting
[11:05] <CompJunki> hello
[11:05] <CompJunki> hehe
[11:05] <mapp> hey
[11:05] <nickrud> lee2, generic?
[11:06] <martin___> fransth, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and change the max res that way
[11:06] <lkjqe223> xertux: ok then what is it?
[11:06] <Jack_Sparrow> lee2: I am on the site and I only see three current models and that is not one of them
[11:06] <ice109> velko: thank you very much for your help
[11:06] <velko> ice109, -L means "list all files installed by this package" and "grep bin" discards all lines which does not contain the word "bin"
[11:06] <lee2> nickrud: yeah monitor "generic monitor" adapter "generic adapter"
[11:06] <lee2> Jack_Sparrow: what models you see
[11:06] <lufis> Is it just me or does audio playback sometimes cut out, especially at the beginning of a song?
[11:06] <CompJunki> i got a problem with my desktop effects and my resolutions can anyone assist me please ?
[11:06] <dug_> pen: i missed your question, but eclipse can do C++ too, the CDT project
[11:06] <lashmoove> how would I launch a .jar file with java from terminal?
[11:06] <martin___> CompJunki, ask away
[11:06] <dug_> lashmoove: java -jar nameof.jar
[11:07] <vocx> martin___, in that case try being more specific. What card? What drivers?
[11:07] <CompJunki> CompJunki:  hi my desktop wont go round :(
[11:07] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow, http://www.iiyama.com/us/default.asp?SID=&LNG=EN&NAV=236&PCAT=2&PROD=7155&CE=F&PARAMS=DATASHEET

[11:07] <xertux> when i install fglrx ati drivers i cant  switch higher than 1024x768 resolution, but if i recover m xserver-xorg to the orginal ati drivers i can switch all of the resolutions well,
[11:07] <dug_> lashmoove: oh you might need to put the name of the main class too, maybe
[11:07] <pen> oh.I never know.I'll try
[11:07] <CompJunki> martin__i:  hi my desktop wont go round :(
[11:07] <RoboticTao> xertux: you can manually add resolutions to the xorg.conf file
[11:07] <lashmoove> dug_ ill try it like that first.. trying to make a launcher for CSMonkeyTVRemote
[11:07] <martin___> vocx, Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG wireless card, plus my nvidia geforce 7300 is no longer detected
[11:08] <CompJunki> martin__ my desktop wont go round
[11:08] <Jack_Sparrow> lee2: e1902 e2202 p1704
[11:08] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow, I'm having no luck helping lee2 , maybe you should start him from scratch again
[11:08] <CompJunki> martin__ and it wont go higher  then 1400x14600
[11:08] <lee2> Jack_Sparrow:  nickrud sent u a link to it a seccond ago
[11:08] <xertux> RoboticTao: i added all of them but still cant switch them at system/screen resolution
[11:08] <CompJunki> help me
[11:08] <martin___> CompJunki, have you enabled the cube in the desktop effects applet? and are you using ctrl + alt + drag to move the cube when on the desktop?
[11:09] <Jack_Sparrow> lee2: I wasnt watching I was looking at that page.. one sec
[11:09] <RoboticTao> xertux: Did you add them to every line under the Display section that had resolutions?
[11:09] <martin___> CompJunki, to fix your resolution try using sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:09] <CompJunki> martin__ yea but nothing happens
[11:09] <Jack_Sparrow> lee2: horiz 31-83    vert   56-75
[11:09] <lee2> is it ok to pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:09] <riotkittie> ok. stupid question time. containing memtest.exe.mui and bootmgr.exe.mui
[11:09] <xertux> RoboticTao: sure all of them
[11:09] <riotkittie> are those win files, or GRUB files?
[11:09] <Jack_Sparrow> lee2: yes
[11:09] <lee2> Jack_Sparrow: thats what i just set em to
[11:09] <Heygabe> Beryl won't load my window decorator!
[11:09] <lee2> Jack_Sparrow: take a look
[11:09] <Heygabe> Help!
[11:09] <kahrytan> Whats CLI command for symbolic link?
[11:09] <lee2> let me go do this
[11:09] <RoboticTao> xertux: I don't know then. That has always worked for me
[11:09] <lkjqe223> ubuntu_intall_gu: think grub error 18 occurs when you attempt to booth from a disk cylinder which is too high for the (probably old) bios. If you create a /boot partition near the start of the disk it should work. This is just a bootin problem -- the rest of the disk will be usable, i.e. your / partition can occupy the rest of the disk.
[11:09] <martin___> CompJunki, try using beryl instead, just install beryl-manager from the repositories and it should work
[11:10] <Jack_Sparrow> lee2: Then something else is wrong...  did you manually enter the name of your video card etc?
[11:10] <xertux> can u give me ur monitor settings? refresh rates
[11:10] <ltar> what program can I open xorg.conf with as root?
[11:10] <ltar> I forget the name
[11:10] <RoboticTao> xertux: yeah, I'll post it in pastebin hang on
[11:10] <Jack_Sparrow> gksudo gedit
[11:10] <vocx> kahrytan, "ln"   read the manual page for the full usage.
[11:10] <riotkittie> ltar gksu gedit ...
[11:10] <nickrud> ltar, nano is good for that
[11:10] <staykovmarin> is there a way to install ubuntu without booting it and going to the livecd desktop?? for some reason that is not working for me. it worked fine last week so i don't get it
[11:10] <riotkittie> or ltar sudo nano ...
[11:10] <dug_> ltar: you can do 'sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[11:10] <n0yd> Anyone that uses AWN know how to change the icon on the trash  applet?
[11:10] <oldmanstan> anyone have any suggestions for a grub error 16 (inconsistent filesystem structure
[11:10] <martin___> staykovmarin, grab the alternative cd
[11:10] <oldmanstan> already ran fsck, no dice
[11:11] <ltar> thanks
[11:11] <n0yd> I tried editing the applets .desktop file, but that only changes it for piece of the emptying animation.
[11:11] <lee1> ok guys]
[11:11] <lee1> here is my xorg.conf file
[11:11] <lee1> http://paste.stgraber.org/3262
[11:11] <n0yd> lee1: dude, don't IRC as root
[11:11] <n0yd> That's not smart at all
[11:11] <codename> how do i find out what kind of wireless card I have
[11:11] <lee1> n0yd: no choice
[11:11] <riotkittie> no choice for what?
[11:12] <RoboticTao> xertux: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35976/
[11:12] <lee1> n0yd: i can only get unbuntu to start in recovery mode
[11:12] <martin___> codename, run lspci
[11:12] <n0yd> lee1: You have plenty of choice
[11:12] <codename> ok
[11:12] <riotkittie> oh
[11:12] <riotkittie> you cant use a TTY in normal mode?
[11:12] <Jack_Sparrow> lee2: what res are you trying to get... 1024 is the max in your xorg
[11:12] <n0yd> lol
[11:12] <codename> what am i looking for?
[11:12] <xertux> RoboticTao: thanks
[11:12] <Heygabe> I still hve no window decorator.
[11:12] <martin___> codename, try lspci | grep Network instead
[11:12] <staykovmarin> martin___: any idea why it would hang on the original screen with the logo and then just go to a console like screen with a flashing dash on the top leflt
[11:12] <xertux> RoboticTao: but i need Monitor section :(
[11:12] <n0yd> Of course he can, he just doesn't know how to switch from an error message on TTY7, to TTY1 to login as yuser
[11:12] <lashmoove> dug_ it didn't work, telling me I don't have java installed.. then it gives me alternative packages that contain 'java' but I know I have java. sun-java5. the .jar runs when I click on it and select java
[11:12] <RoboticTao> xertux: whoops
[11:13] <lee1> Jack_Sparrow: 1680x1050 but i cant even get it to a default rezolution but what confuses me is the fact that it doesnt say nvidia anywhere or the name of my monitor or my graphics card model :s
[11:13] <xertux> RoboticTao: sorry if u just send me refresh rates here thats enough
[11:13] <Jack_Sparrow> lee2: You wont get a res any higer than the max in your xorg..
[11:13] <codename> nothing comes up
[11:13] <xax> hi
[11:13] <martin___> staykovmarin, possibly a bad cd, you could try burning it again at a slower speed (errors less likely to occur) or failing that check the md5 signature and download again if it's corrupted
[11:13] <lee1> Jack_Sparrow: i can add them later tho i cant even get anything at the minuite jsut goes out of range :9
[11:14] <mcscruff> anyone got Jackfield working?
[11:14] <RoboticTao> xertux: This is the whole config file http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35978/
[11:14] <dug_> lashmoove: that's odd.  maybe the java command line utility is not in your path?  Anyway, if you wish, java6 is available now
[11:14] <codename> hey martin
[11:14] <staykovmarin> martin___: come to think of it i have never used this cd. alright will do that thanks
[11:14] <codename> would it be under Ethernet controller?
[11:14] <codename> RTL
[11:14] <martin___> codename,  should be listed as Network Controller
[11:15] <lee1> Jack_Sparrow: whats the best nvidia driver to use on a 6600GT card?
[11:15] <ltar> alrite, i added a "1280x1024" line to my xorg.conf, but still stuck at 1024X786. is there something else I need to edit?
[11:15] <xertux> RoboticTao: thanks :) r u using xgl now?
[11:15] <lashmoove> dug_  java6 doesn't like logmein, I guess ill try one of these packages. that may do it
[11:15] <Jack_Sparrow> lee2: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg     select nvidia as your cand.. do not enter a name or id of your card just accept the defaults, do not write sync rates when it asks..
[11:15] <martin___> staykovmarin, worth a try, my cdrw is very buggy, i have to burn at 8x to stop it corrupting cd's
[11:15] <lee1> Jack_Sparrow: ive done this but il give it a go
[11:15] <Jack_Sparrow> lee2: I run a 6600 on this system
[11:15] <dug_> ltar: did you try system->preferences->screen resolution control panel?
[11:15] <RoboticTao> xertux: yeah
[11:16] <ltar> dug_:  of course.
[11:16] <xertux> RoboticTao: ok coming
[11:16] <Jack_Sparrow> lee2: Very important let it detect... dont enter things..
[11:16] <ltar> 	DefaultDepth	24

[11:16] <ltar> 		Modes		"1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600"
[11:16] <dug_> ltar: oh, after you edit xorg.conf, you need to reboot or restart gnome i think.  try control-alt-backspace (this logs you out and everything though)
[11:16] <ltar> sorry to spam.
[11:16] <ltar> ah
[11:16] <bruenig> restart x
[11:16] <mitch00> hi. can anyone tell me how to get a widescreen framebuffer?
[11:16] <ltar> alrite. I'll try it
[11:17] <vocx> bruenig, that is depth 1 !
[11:18] <ltar> ...
[11:18] <ltar> no dice
[11:18] <Jack_Sparrow> lee2: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35980/   here is mine
[11:18] <ltar> ctrl-alt-backspace, still no resolution. im checking the file, then I'll try rebooting
[11:18] <dug_> ltar: you already restarted gnome and went back to the control panel again to see if the new resolution is there?
[11:18] <dug_> as an option
[11:18] <ltar> dug_: yeah
[11:18] <ltar> it went pretty quick
[11:19] <dug_> ltar: sorry, i'm not sure what to do then, if you like you can paste your xorg.conf to rafb paste
[11:19] <dug_> http://rafb.net/paste/
[11:19] <ltar> dug_:  I have my older ubuntu install, i'll try copying from that
[11:20] <dug_> ltar: others mentioned trying this command too:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:21] <lee_> ok ubuntu is wierd
[11:21] <lee_> that didnt work
[11:21] <Jack_Sparrow> lee2: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35980/   here is mine

[11:21] <MrStix> can someone tell me how to swap my left/rigiht screens in xorg.conf? for some reason when gdm starts it goes to the right screen.  all my menus etc are on the right screen, iwould like them to be on the left screen.  how can i do this ?
[11:21] <dug_> anytime you edit xorg.conf you should run  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg I assume?
[11:21] <lee_> Jack_Sparrow, i got that fed up i did apt-get install nvidia-glx-new then startx and guesse what im in
[11:22] <lee_> it just doesnt like the nvidia-glx drivers
[11:22] <arooni_> i have a microsoft mouse with forward & back buttons... how do i make it such that those buttons do forward/back in firefox?
[11:22] <RoboticTao> dug_: No, that would undo the configurations you had made
[11:22] <martin__> dug_, no, dpkg-reconfigure is just an alternative to manually editing the file
[11:22] <ajrion> hello i want to istall ubuntu and i have 1GB + 512 MB of ram memory. how much of a swap partition would i need?
[11:22] <bruenig> arooni_, doubt that you will be able, would suggest using mouse gesture extensions or the keyboard alt + arrows

[11:28] <ajrion> gaten: ok with all do respect, what if i make it 1GB just in case? :)
[11:28] <Hansel> I did an apt-get install banshee but it doesnt run... just kind of freezes...
[11:28] <MrStix> nickrud: it is xinerma.. ive tried switching it but it didn't work.  i can paste the xorg.conf file if it will help fix it
[11:28] <kahrytan> dug_, Symbolic link and gconf dont work
[11:28] <Hansel> err... banshee was installed but when I try to run it nothing happens
[11:28] <Hansel> any ideas?
[11:28] <serenityUK> MrStix, well I use an nvidia control panel to set it up i think there is one called aticonfig  too..   on my xorg.conf it says    1280x1024 +1680+0   and    1680x1050+0+0     for my two monitors so that the 1280 is on the right of the 1680
[11:29] <kahrytan> dug_, hence why I called it stubborn
[11:29] <gaten> ajrion: go for it. won't hurt anything, and if you've got the space why not
[11:29] <nickrud> MrStix, that was my only contribution really. My mind is broke on X today for some reason
[11:29] <MrStix> oh ok :P
[11:29] <ajrion> gaten: THANKS! :)(
[11:29] <serenityUK> MrStix, i am using twinview i don't know if ati is the same
[11:29] <dug_> Ben323: you can try chown yourname:yourname .dmrc maybe?
[11:29] <gaten> ajrion: np. you also may want to heed rafaelscj's advice if you're using a laptop or hibernate feature
[11:29] <ajrion> rafaelscj: what about hybernate? i want to hybernate my linux!
[11:30] <bruenig> ajrion, I have a 512 mb swap and have only once seen it get over 0 bytes usage
[11:30] <Ben323> dug_:how do i do that?
[11:30] <gaten> swap has become less necessary as we get more ram
[11:30] <mindrape> I installed banshee via apt-get install.... when I try to run it the process just hangs.  What to do?
[11:30] <MrStix> serenityUK: is there no default setting for where the menus start? (left or right screen).  i thought this was configurible which screen things start off on
[11:30] <ajrion> rafaelscj:  i didnt get the whole message
[11:30] <spats_fumble> arroni check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto
[11:30] <rafaelscj> ajrion, your swap file MUST be bigger than RAM
[11:30] <BOB_SLAYER> rafaelscj sooo not true
[11:30] <ajrion> bruenig: how mych ram u have?
[11:30] <xertux> i installed my fglrx drivers well but to open xgl i added xorg.conf a line "composite" "Enable" but when i add that my drivers going back like i have never installed, but when make it disable everything going allrightt what should be the problem? Thanks
[11:30] <BOB_SLAYER> i know many many people inc me that have 2GB ram and run 1GB swap
[11:31] <NoobSauce> I am trying to reinstall ubuntu on my system, and it gives me 'PCI: cannot allocate resource region...' when I try to load up the CD. I used three separate CDs which have worked for me in the past, but no longer work (all with this PCI error). Any ideas what's wrong?
[11:31] <bruenig> ajrion, 384 mb
[11:31] <ajrion> rafaelscj: ok so i should use 1.5 or even 2 GB of swap?
[11:31] <dolk> Hello, anyone know how to work a D-Link DWL-G650 in Ubuntu. It does not seem to work to well
[11:31] <serenityUK> MrStix, well  I just click in free space on the panel and drag the whole thing it to the other screen
[11:31] <dug_> Ben323: have you used the command line?  You go to applications->accessories->Terminal, then type that command: chown yourname:yourname .hmrc  (replace yourname with your username)
[11:31] <mindrape> ajrion - wouldn't hurt... I just make mine match the amount of system memory these days instead of doubling it as was recommend back in the day.
[11:31] <serenityUK> MrStix, it stays after reboot for me
[11:31] <DarkMessiah> how do i fix this "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35981/plain/"?
[11:31] <dug_> kahrytan: did you try changing /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/distributor-logo.png ?
[11:31] <Jack_Sparrow> swap equal to ram or up to total of 2 gig wil be fine
[11:31] <MrStix> serenityUK: ok, i will go with that for now. thank you very much
[11:31] <vocx> BOB_SLAYER, he is talking about hibernation. You need at least as much RAM as you have if you wish to hibernate the whole memory.
[11:31] <cybybuddy> my swap is never used here.. dont need the swap bigger than ram
[11:31] <ajrion> rafaelscj: sorry if i am wrong at something here but what if i get a 8GB of RAM ? :)))
[11:31] <Qodosh> I dual boot windows and ubuntu, and when I go to select which OS I will run, their are two version of ubuntu listed, even though I didnt install the OS twice. Is this because I updated to a newer kernel? And if so, what's the best way to uninstall the old?
[11:32] <BOB_SLAYER> vocx beg ur pardon
[11:32] <xertux> Jack_Sparrow: so i have a problem with no solve :)
[11:32] <kahrytan> dug_, on that I didnt know how to back it up
[11:32] <BOB_SLAYER> um whoever i criticised, beg ur pardon
[11:32] <mindrape> Qodosh - are you using grub to choose the OS?
[11:32] <bruenig> ajrion, swap is a remnant of the past really, I would not go over 500 mb
[11:32] <Qodosh> mindrape: yep
[11:32] <MrStix> serenityUK: also i currently have windows/ubuntu on seperate HDs and i disconnect the HD i dont wnat to use when deciding what to boot into.  is there a better way of doing this?
[11:32] <rafaelscj> ajrion, if you have 1.5GB of RAM you should have 2Gb of SWAP
[11:32] <bruenig> ajrion, especially if you have 1.5 gb or ram
[11:32] <Ltar> alrite.
[11:32] <dug_> kahrytan: in command line, you can use the 'cp' command, or in nautilus, you can control-C control-V copy and paste to make a copy
[11:32] <mindrape> Qodosh - edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and remove the old kernel entry as long as you know the new one works.
[11:32] <Ltar> that command raped my x
[11:32] <Ltar> running in windows now
[11:33] <kahrytan> dug_, how do you rename?
[11:33] <nickrud> Qodosh, it's generally a good idea to have the second oldest kernel around ; to remove it look for linux-image-<kernelversion> in synaptic & remove it
[11:33] <bruenig> ajrion, but if you don't need the disk space then do whatever
[11:33] <dug_> kahrytan: right click on file and select rename
[11:33] <Qodosh> mindrape: The new one does work....has for sometime.  But I dont just want to remove the entry, I would like to remove old files.
[11:33] <mindrape> Qodosh - then do what nickrud said...
[11:33] <Qodosh> nickrud: oh, alright, good advice. thanks.
[11:33] <ajrion> but rafaelscj and bruenig are talking 2 differnet things ?!?!?? i am gonna go crazy!
[11:33] <bruenig> kahrytan, mv filename newfilename
[11:33] <velko> Qodosh, if one of the lines ends with (single) this is the "recovery mode" version of the same kernel
[11:33] <Qodosh> mindrape: thank you, will do!
[11:33] <xertux> is there a difference "Composite" "Enable" ----- "Composite" "1" ??
[11:33] <bruenig> rafaelscj, how often does your swap get used?
[11:33] <mindrape> xertux - probably not but consult the man page anyhow.
[11:34] <Ltar> so, I tried the xservers-xorg-phigh-whatever tool. x now fails to initialize. how to fix?
[11:34] <dug_> kahrytan: right, or in command line use 'mv' or 'rename' like bruenig mentioned
[11:34] <rafaelscj> ajrion, only use swap if you wsnt to use hybernate
[11:34] <kahrytan> bruenig, I figured that out. even thoughthats move
[11:34] <mindrape> xertux - 0 usually means disabled and 1 means enabled  :)
[11:34] <Qodosh> velko: each version has a recovery mode version of the same at the bottom.....its a diff kernel version.
[11:34] <rafaelscj> want*
[11:34] <Ben323> how do i fix this "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35981/plain/" ?
[11:34] <serenityUK> MrStix, yes the grub menu for ubuntu lets you boot into windows too  just press down arrow and choose windows?
[11:34] <xertux> mindrape: logic system ;)
[11:34] <bruenig> rename is different than mv
[11:34] <serenityUK> MrStix, when you boot ubuntu do you not get a menu?
[11:34] <MrStix> serenityUK: well it says press ESCAPE for the menu i believe
[11:34] <mindrape> Ben323 - turn yourself into root and cd /home/THEUSER_YOU_WANT_TO_FIX
[11:35] <mindrape> Ben323 - ls -alh and tell me who the owning user and group is... you may have to chown it
[11:35] <mindrape> chown /home/THEUSER user.group
[11:35] <rafaelscj> ajrion, only create swap if you want to use hybernate
[11:35] <serenityUK> MrStix, ah it may be defaulting to ubuntu...  try pressing escape you should see atleast three options... ubuntu, recoverymode and windows
[11:35] <rafaelscj> bruenig, 0Mb
[11:35] <mindrape> or maybe I'm thinking chmod... I always get my commands mixed up  :)
[11:35] <MrStix> serenityUK: awesome, thanks
[11:35] <Ben323> mindrape: can you write everything to do to fix it here "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org".
[11:35] <Ltar> so, I tried the xservers-xorg-phigh-whatever tool to change my resolution up to 1280x1024. x now fails to initialize. how to fix? currently running XP.
[11:35] <velko> Qodosh, if you deinstall the old kernel it will remove it's grub entry also
[11:36] <ajrion> ok people thank you verry much i love you all, i have 160 GB hdd so i dont mind having 2 GB of swap and i am going to use hibernate :) thanks to yuo all
[11:36] <mindrape> Ben323 - I need the ls -alh output to see if what I think is the problem is actually the problem.
[11:36] <Qodosh> velko: I was just told that it was a good idea to keep the old one.....however I dont know why. :p
[11:36] <rocketman> you're welcome ajrion
[11:36] <Qodosh> I cant see it being much of a problem
[11:36] <mindrape> I _think_ the user and group perms got messed up so you may have to chmod 644 /home/THEUSER and then chown it back
[11:36] <vocx> Ltar, you need to run it again and try selecting all defaults. Use the recovery console.
[11:36] <ajrion> rafaelscj especialy you
[11:36] <martin__> Ltar, what driver did you select? that's probably your problem, run it again
[11:36] <serenityUK> MrStix, i don't have the escape thing on mine it just shows menu for ten seconds then boots the top choice... you can probably change it
[11:36] <dacer> hello
[11:36] <mindrape> hi dacer
[11:37] <rafaelscj> ajrion, you're welcome
[11:37] <dacer> hi
[11:37] <velko> Qodosh, certainly there is no harm keeping the old version
[11:37] <MrStix> serenityUK: ok
[11:37] <nickrud> mindrape, wouldn't that mess up the directories? loosing the execute bit?
[11:37] <dug_> Ltar: you can reboot to ubuntu, in grub choose recovery mode, then copy your backup xorg.conf over the new one, or else use sudo nano to edit it and fix it
[11:37] <Ben323> how can i fix this problem, "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35981/plain/"?
[11:37] <Qodosh> velko: well, the only problem is, I am not sure what line to edit it out in the the grub file.
[11:37] <mindrape> nickrud - for executables yeah  ;)  you could technically 744 it...
[11:37] <dacer> is anyone german here??
[11:37] <MrStix> serenityUK: is there some way to map function keys to run commands? I would like to have F1 mapped to run Xterm..
[11:37] <dacer> is anyone german here??
[11:37] <mindrape> nickrud - how many people have executables in their home dir though?
[11:37] <vocx> !de | dacer
[11:37] <ubotu> dacer: Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #xubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de
[11:37] <mindrape> dacer - Danish..
[11:38] <RoboticTao> Ben323: You have the wrong ownership/permissions on your home directory
[11:38] <serenityUK> MrStix, yes do you run beryl/compiz or normal gnome?
[11:38] <nickrud> mindrape, I do occasionally, but not for long ;)
[11:38] <diabolical77> anyone running 7.04 on a latitude d410?
[11:38] <dacer> #kubuntu-de
[11:38] <xertux> hi when i make "composite" enable in xorg.conf my fglrx drivers going back like i have never installed a drivers what should be the problem :'(
[11:38] <mindrape> I'm running 7.04 on an Inspiron 6000
[11:38] <MrStix> serenityUK: i have beryl installed.. but currently using gnome.. beryl doesnt auto start yet
[11:38] <Ben323> robotictao:how can i fix it? plzzz tell me step by  step.
[11:38] <diabolical77> the double clicking part is driving me crazy.
[11:39] <Qodosh> velko: There is a whole section under ## ## End Default Options ## with the old kernel.
[11:39] <diabolical77> not sure if it's a driver or what
[11:39] <nickrud> xertux, fglrx doesn't support composite ...
[11:39] <RoboticTao> Ben323: You can drop to a terminal with ctrl+alt f1
[11:39] <kahrytan> dug_, Doesnt work
[11:39] <mindrape> I installed Banshee via apt-get install and now when I try to run it the process just hangs.  When I try running strace banshee it just gets to an instruction and hangs... it doesn't mean much to me.
[11:39] <RoboticTao> Ben323: what is your username?
[11:39] <MrStix> anyone know how to get the back/forward buttons to work in firefox ?
[11:39] <serenityUK> MrStix, ok there is a thing called gconf-editor that lets you change hidden settings... press alt-f2 and type gconf-editor.......
[11:39] <Ben323> robotictao:am useing failsafe session.
[11:39] <xertux> nickrud: omg :S is there another driver?
[11:39] <MrStix> serenityUK: is that not applicable in beryl ?
[11:39] <diabolical77> changed the mouse sensitivity but it still acts crazy. you have to click like 4 times to double click on something
[11:39] <dug_> kahrytan: sorry, that link i posted earlier to the forum thread had more info.  You probably need to restart gnome/X after changing the icon at the very least (control-alt-backspace, which logs you out )
[11:39] <mindrape> MrStix - I think the forward/back buttons are a pretty standard function of the firefox app... shouldnt need to be enabled
[11:39] <Qodosh> eh, I guess I will just keep it as annoying as it is. :p
[11:39] <spats_fumble> Try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto
[11:40] <diabolical77> thanks
[11:40] <kahrytan> dug_, I rebooted
[11:40] <velko> Qodosh, the easiest way to remove the entry is to remove the kernel via synaptic, aptitude, apt-get... keeping the kernel but deleting the grub entry wont serve you if you don't know how to enable it later
[11:40] <MrStix> mindrape: well it works fine in windows but not firefox.. for some reason the mouse buttons arent working the way they should
[11:40] <serenityUK> MrStix, beryl has it's own options in a control panel
[11:40] <fulio> Hi,  i have alot xorg.conf files with dates on them is that bad or good?
[11:40] <MrStix> serenityUK: oh ok :)
[11:40] <nickrud> xertux, no. If you're after compiz-fusion, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/Xgl and ask for help in #ubuntu-effects or #compiz-fusion
[11:40] <RoboticTao> Ben323: you have to sudo chown -R <username>:<username> /home/<user>; sudo chmod 644 /home/<user>/.dmrc
[11:40] <mindrape> This is completely off topic but I just have to say that spray tans are the way to go... I look very sexy right now if I do say so myself.
[11:40] <mindrape> ...and I dont have cancer and can sit on my computer 24/7!!!
[11:40] <RoboticTao> mindrape: two words skin cancer
[11:41] <zegevrijtty> i would like to change mouse speed without an ecceleration algorithm changing speed all of a sudden. i want a clean linear magnification of my movement how can i get this ?
[11:41] <diabolical77> not from spray tan
[11:41] <mindrape> RoboticTao - cancer from the fake baking... not the spray tanners.
[11:41] <Ltar> ... so long as the xorg file is restored, xorg should stop complained. it oughtn't matter, then, if I do it from console or from another OS. given that I'm not exactly comfortable in the console, is there a tool to allow windows to read/write EXT3?
[11:41] <TheMafia> will someone point me to a good howto on encrypiting an entire /home dir with feisty?  I have been trying to get encfs and fuse and the pam module with no luck
[11:41] <rocketman> xertux: which graphics card do u have?
[11:41] <serenityUK> MrStix, in gconf-editor goto Apps>>Metacity>>Global_Keybindings  and see run_command_1 on the right
[11:41] <j0han_> nickrud hi again... I tried both update-alternatives --config java and firefox-javaplugin.so but it still doesnt work
[11:41] <MrStix> serenityUK: ok
[11:41] <RoboticTao> TheMafia: Use truecrypt
[11:41] <velko> Qodosh, and yes - if you want to remove the entry you have to delete (or comment out) the whole section in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:41] <diabolical77> of course the spray tans are probably just as bad for u with all toxic chemicals seeping into your pores
[11:41] <dug_> kahrytan: this page has some info at the bottom, where it mentions creating an .icon folder in your home folder: http://czarism.com/changing-the-ubuntu-logo-in-breezy
[11:41] <mindrape> diabolical77 - but it looks so sexy...
[11:42] <kahrytan> dug_, Why wont the ubuntu logo go away
[11:42] <kagemaro> OK, anyone who knows about mencoder please help me to turn a DivX AVI into an Xbox 360/Zune compatible WMV file without the use of Windows software which doesnt work on Wine
[11:42] <nickrud> j0han_, my feisty vmware image got messed up; I'm reinstalling it now, so I can be sure I'm giving good info. Soon ....
[11:42] <xertux> rocketman: ati readon 9550
[11:42] <Qodosh> velko:  I know how to remove it with synaptic, I just needed to know what to search for, i.e.  linux-image.   Well I could recopy the entry into the file to enable it.
[11:42] <kahrytan> dug_,  not using breezy im using feisty
[11:42] <serenityUK> MrStix, put a key in run command 1,    then  underneath on keybinding_commands   goto command 1  and fill in a program name such as xterm
[11:42] <TheMafia> RoboticTao, I will look into it, I didn' tthink it would do a /home directory very seamlessly?
[11:42] <j0han_> nickrud ok
[11:42] <Qodosh> velko: recopy it later that is. :P
[11:42] <dug_> kahrytan: at the bottom of this link, it says "ubuntu 7.04 update" (7.04 is feisty): http://czarism.com/changing-the-ubuntu-logo-in-breezy
[11:42] <diabolical77> mindrape: was trying to convince my gal to get a spray tan today actually
[11:42] <RoboticTao> TheMafia: If you want you can encrypt a entire drive or just a partition
[11:42] <MrStix> serenityUK: does this require a restart of gdm or anything ?
[11:43] <kahrytan> dug_, nope
[11:43] <vocx> diabolical77, that is so off topic, unless you provide pictures, please don't
[11:43] <j0han_> nickrud I did try to remove the old java 1.4 but it wasnt possible since it was shared components
[11:43] <RoboticTao> TheMafia: It's fairly versatile
[11:43] <serenityUK> MrStix, no,  you might need to close gconf  let me test it
[11:43] <MrStix> ok
[11:43] <dug_> Ltar: right, you can edit/restore the xorg.conf file from windows. let me find the extension you can use to read the ext3 partition from windows
[11:43] <diabolical77> mindrape brought it up. sorry.
[11:43] <kagemaro> OK, anyone who knows about mencoder please help me to turn a DivX AVI into an Xbox 360/Zune compatible WMV file without the use of Windows software which doesnt work on Wine
[11:43] <j0han_> nickrud so I tried to remove java 6 first then java 1.4 but still didnt work
[11:43] <zegevrijtty> why does linux use acceleration algorithm on mouse ? it drives me nuts i only want change speed not have it jump or do tricks on me . only setting to lowest helps .
[11:43] <Ltar> dug_: thanks
[11:43] <rafaelscj> is there a way to defrag my file system?
[11:43] <kahrytan> dug_, It's not at the bottom
[11:43] <TheMafia> RoboticTao, an entire directory, my ~ is not on a seperate partition
[11:43] <vocx> rafaelscj, no
[11:43] <j0han_> nickrud just in case there was something with java 1.4 that messed up the whole thing
[11:44] <dug_> kahrytan: at the bottom of the blog post i mean.  did you try "sudo killall gnome-panel" after changing the icon (this quits and restarts gnome menu I think)
[11:44] <nickrud> j0han_, look in /etc/alternatives, look for things that have javaplugin in them. update-alternative them if you're impatient ;)
[11:44] <exDM69> rafaelscj: there is no significant filesystem fragmentation in unix filesystems
[11:44] <RoboticTao> rafaelscj: ext3 doesn't need to be defraged
[11:44] <worried>  hello, i'm a newbie who wants to switch from windows 98 to xubuntu. i'm on a 180mhz processor, 30mb ram, 8gb hd
[11:44] <serenityUK> MrStix, oh im using compiz-fusion i forgot cant test... but you wont need to restart
[11:44] <kahrytan> dug_, Logging out works too
[11:44] <diabolical77> my problem is the dell touchpad mouse keys. double clicking is almost impossible.
[11:44] <MrStix> serenityUK: ok cool
[11:44] <rafaelscj> okay thanks
[11:44] <bruenig> worried, xubuntu is a bit heavy for that I would think, especially ram
[11:44] <gordonjcp> kagemaro: does it need to be .wmv?
[11:44] <j0han_> nickrud ok I will
[11:44] <exDM69> worried: that's going to be slooooow
[11:44] <kagemaro> OK, anyone who knows about mencoder please help me to turn a DivX AVI into an Xbox 360/Zune compatible WMV file without the use of Windows software which doesnt work on Wine?!
[11:44] <MrStix> serenityUK: btw is it not advisable to install both compiz-fusion AND beryl? i have beryl atm im wondering if i can install compiz-fusion without uninstalling beryl..
[11:44] <dug_> kahrytan: sorry, i would try posting on the ubuntu forum, and prob. someone will know the right answer within a day or two
[11:44] <Ben323> robotictao: use this link "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org" and show me how to would do it. my user name is ben.
[11:45] <worried> ok, so what linux is best for me?
[11:45] <gordonjcp> !repeat | kagemaro
[11:45] <ubotu> kagemaro: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[11:45] <nickrud> kagemaro, try #mplayer
[11:45] <serenityUK> MrStix, Do you sese what you have to do,, you can make shortcuts like  <control><alt><delete>  btw  <super> means the windows key
[11:45] <Ltar> worried: linux OSX
[11:45] <velko> worried, you may try something lightier like fluxbuntu or puppy linux
[11:45] <exDM69> worried: well xubuntu is fine
[11:45] <xertux> rocketman: do u know how to solve my problem?
[11:45] <Ltar> oh sorry.
[11:45] <MrStix> serenityUK: yes i made the shortcut for F1 already.. its just not working yet :) i will reboot and try later.. need to fix this firefox buttons thing first
[11:45] <exDM69> worried: but your system is slow and no distro can change that fact
[11:45] <dug_> Ltar: there are multiple options for reading/writing ext3 partitions from windows, i'm not sure which is best or most popular as I haven't used them: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=windows+xp+ext3&btnG=Google+Search
[11:45] <gordonjcp> kagemaro: bear in mind that .avi is just a container format, and can have pretty much anything as the encoding within the file
[11:46] <bruenig> worried, probably best to get some sort of basic command line system and install some really light window managers, like icewm and fluxbox and such, a DE is too much probably for you
[11:46] <vocx> worried, sadly, your best choice is a new computer. They are very cheap now. You don't need a very powerful processor; a sempron is fine.
[11:46] <kagemaro> gordonjcp - It is a DivX encoded video
[11:46] <serenityUK> MrStix, you can install compiz-fusion and beryl side by side and switch between them if it doesn't work.... next version of ubuntu in 6 weeks has compiz fusion installed anyway.. you might aswell wait for stable version
[11:46] <velko> worried, xubuntu uses here over 150MB so i dont think you system will be powerful enough for it
[11:46] <MrStix> serenityUK: sweet!
[11:47] <zegevrijtty> xubuntu is not fast on slow computer xfce is not light weight at all .. only compaired to kde or grnome it is light.
[11:47] <Ltar> dug_: yeah, I found a lot of these on my own.  It isn't even supported anymore
[11:48] <nickrud> worried, malware city for you on win98 ;)
[11:48] <Ltar> dug_: the site says it can read, can it write?
[11:48] <Ltar> dug_: in order to restore my xorg.conf, i'll need r/w support
[11:48] <vocx> worried, you can run any Linux with your computer but only if you really feel comfortable with command line. You won't be able to run graphical stuff.
[11:48] <zegevrijtty> yes you can on 128 even on 64 but performance would bne much better using fluxbox or icewm or equinox
[11:49] <dug_> Ltar: yeah you're right, i was just reading that too, i'm checking out this one now: http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net/ext2.html
[11:49] <serenityUK> worried, there are special versions such as Damn Small Linux  have a look on http://distrowatch.com/
[11:49] <kagemaro> OK, anyone who knows about mencoder please help me to turn a DivX AVI into an Xbox 360/Zune compatible WMV file without the use of Windows software which doesnt work on Wine
[11:49] <g_dmar> is there anyone who knows how to migrate an email account and the messages from thunderbird to evolution?
[11:49] <nickrud> Ltar, http://www.fs-driver.org/ has a ext2/3 driver for windows
[11:49] <worried> ok, thanks everyone, i'll think it over
[11:50] <_rocketman> xertux: have you tried the "radeon" driver instead of "fglrx" ?
[11:50] <BOB_SLAYER> kagemaro virtualdub?
[11:50] <Ltar> nickrud: that link only says EXT2. Will it offer the same functionality for EXT3?
[11:50] <dug_> Ltar: yeah the tool nickrud mentioned reads and writes to ext2 and ext3
[11:50] <zegevrijtty> use xubuntu as base install and from there install fluxbox icewm .. etc and try em all
[11:50] <nickrud> Ltar, a few paragraphs down it has a link to the faqs about ext3
[11:50] <spats_fumble> q
[11:50] <bruenig> Ltar, ext3 is ext2 with journaling, it is reverse compatible
[11:51] <MrStix> for some reason when i highlight anything in my xterm terminal it doesn't copy.. anyone know how to fix that ?
[11:51] <mayo> Hello
[11:51] <serenityUK> MrStix, right click?
[11:51] <bruenig> zegevrijtty, server probably be better
[11:51] <Ltar> nickrud: cool, i'll try it out
[11:51] <MrStix> serenityUK: when i right click it seems to select a big block of the window
[11:51] <_rocketman> xertux: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver
[11:51] <bruenig> MrStix, shift ctrl c?
[11:52] <graft> argh! why is my nfs server timing out when i try to mount this directory?
[11:52] <mayo> I have Ubuntu 7.4 and had recently installed windows xp by virtualbox. is there a way to make a share folder ?
[11:52] <UBUNTU> http://antigop-k4.narod.ru/ubuntu.html   All new info about LINUX
[11:52] <kagemaro> BOB_SLAYER - What is virtualdub?
[11:52] <MrStix> shift + control C worked..
[11:52] <MrStix> thanks
[11:52] <bruenig> !ot | UBUNTU
[11:52] <ubotu> UBUNTU: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[11:52] <n0dding0ff> I'd like some IMMEDIATE help, please.  My wlan0 interface in "Network Settings" is gone for some reason.
[11:53] <mayo> virtualbox is a virtual machine that lets you installed other OS
[11:53] <serenityUK> MrStix, why not use gnome-terminal   it has better fonts and definitely cut and pastes,  you can change the colour to white on black if thats what you want
[11:53] <BOB_SLAYER> video/audio editing progam, good for converting files etc (u'll need codecs) but i'm pretty sure its available for linux
[11:53] <bruenig> uh oh, he requested his help to be all caps immediate
[11:53] <MrStix> serenityUK: the font size is too big.. i need it to be smaller, and i need to change the background/foreground colors.  can you tell me how?
[11:53] <foxray> xubuntu only runs xfce but isn't xfce using gtk2? so doesn't it need some gnome libs?
[11:53] <bruenig> foxray, xfce doesn't need any gnome libs by default
[11:53] <BOB_SLAYER> ok, i'm on the network on xp fine, reboot to ubuntu and it can't find the network w/o restarting router.  exactly the same if i start with network on ubuntu and switch to xp
[11:53] <SlimeyPete> BOB_SLAYER: it wasn't available last time I checked, but it might run in Wine
[11:53] <BOB_SLAYER> any ideas?
[11:53] <bruenig> foxray, gtk is not a gnome lib
[11:53] <Anlar> foxray: gtk != gnome
[11:54] <nickrud> foxray, no, it only uses the gtk libs
[11:54] <serenityUK> MrStix, in gnome terminal  goto edit->current profile...
[11:54] <lucashungaro> Hello there... how can I install Java SDK 1.6 on Ubuntu 7.04? Synaptic just shows 1.4... I downloaded the .bin and the rpm from Sun's site, but both doesn't work
[11:54] <BOB_SLAYER> oh sorry then
[11:54] <serenityUK> MrStix, you can change fonts size and background colour etc
[11:54] <kagemaro> BOB_SLAYER - Virtualdub is for win32
[11:54] <MrStix> serenityUK: ah ok :)
[11:54] <Ltar> im installing the ext2/3 driver, and it's asking me to name my appropriate partitions
[11:54] <BOB_SLAYER> ah sorry then
[11:54] <Grungebunny> check out the cool background I found for linux users http://lahandi.deviantart.com/art/Kill-Bill-52784151
[11:54] <mayo> lucashungaro you need a deb file or a source
[11:54] <Ltar> how should I handle the swap partitions?
[11:54] <BOB_SLAYER> thought there was a linux version, apparently not
[11:54] <SlimeyPete> BOB_SLAYER: sounds like it's a router issue. It might be refusing to grant a new DHCP lease, perhaps (just an educated guess)
[11:54] <nickrud> Ltar, ignore them
[11:54] <bruenig> foxray, xubuntu probably does because of all the apps it bundles and because a lot of apps depend for some ridiculous reason on the abomination that is gnome's attempt at windows registry
[11:54] <mayo> or you can installed alien and then convert the rpm file to .deb
[11:54] <dug_> lucashungaro: if you use system->administration->synaptic package manager, you should be able to search for java6 and see the packages there
[11:54] <Ltar> leave them un-named, and thus inaccessable?
[11:55] <Ltar> nickrud: ?
[11:55] <lucashungaro> mayo: do you know where I can get them?
[11:55] <bruenig> !ot | Grungebunny
[11:55] <ubotu> Grungebunny: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[11:55] <nickrud> Ltar, yes, they're not readable partitions
[11:55] <Ltar> coo'
[11:55] <BOB_SLAYER> i'm forcing an ip so dhcp shouldn't be a problem, xp and ubuntu give the ethernet card a diff mac address, could that be it?
[11:55] <lucashungaro> dug: I've tried, but there's only jdk and jre 1.4
[11:55] <FH87> Does someone know why 3D-rendering get deactivated, if you enter a second monitor in the xorg.conf ?
[11:55] <dug_> lucashungaro: and you said you are definitely using ubuntu 7.04 (feisty)?  Then something is wrong
[11:56] <n0dding0ff> Where did wlan0 go in "Networking"?
[11:56] <serenityUK> MrStix, the only good thing about xterm is small memory... gnome terminal is much easier on the eye and os better at scrolling back etc.. i have white text on dark grey background
[11:56] <mike> so is there any chat rooms for dating on this this?
[11:56] <lucashungaro> dug_: Yes... maybe I have to add another repository?
[11:56] <SlimeyPete> BOB_SLAYER: yes, might be. Odd that they give different MAC addresses - MAC is a hardware address and shouldn't change unless ou change it deliberately using software MAC emulation.
[11:57] <dug_> lucashungaro: if you like you can paste your /etc/apt/sources.list file to rafb.net/paste/
[11:57] <Ben323> robotictao:now i got this message "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35984/plain/".
[11:57] <p-l> #BeeSeek
[11:57] <Ltar> alrite. i installed the driver, but attempting to access the now-visible ext partitions prompts me to format them. obviously this is bad. it seems the drivers don't work?
[11:57] <n0dding0ff> How come wlan0 interface is gone from the Network settings. I installed ndinswrapper.
[11:58] <serenityUK> FH87, are you using nvidia drivers>
[11:58] <Opulentus> I seem to have an odd issue.  I have an IDE dvdrw that Ubuntu appears to see as a SCSI drive
[11:58] <rafaelscj> in your opinion, is XMMS the best media player?
[11:58] <Opulentus> I'm getting Buffer I/O errors
[11:58] <BOB_SLAYER> i used to force it, xp has it in its head that its 00:00:00:00:00:00, linux that its sommit else
[11:58] <vocx> !best | rafaelscj that is off topic
[11:58] <ubotu> rafaelscj that is off topic: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[11:58] <lucashungaro> dug_: hehe... right now I'm at Windows XP... but I'll do it as soon as I can
[11:58] <BOB_SLAYER> hmm, only other thing is comp name
[11:58] <nickrud> Ltar, I'm gonna quote myself :) * nickrud never writes to linux from windows, and vice versa. Fraidy cat, him
[11:58] <BOB_SLAYER> both have the same, tho poss not same case
[11:59] <dug_> rafaelscj: i like xmms because I was used to winamp, but i hear amarok is a popular music player
[11:59] <rafaelscj> only XMMS works with freecodecs
[11:59] <rafaelscj> VLC works too but bad
[11:59] <sweetestlove> hey everyone

[12:00] <DarkMessiah> a
[12:00] <vocx> !please | n0dding0ff
[12:00] <ubotu> n0dding0ff: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience
[12:00] <sweetestlove> can someone help me get sound on the internet like youtube
[12:00] <DarkMessiah> who can i fix this "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35981/plain/"?
[12:00] <n0dding0ff> ubotu: I've been asking my question.
[12:00] <Ltar> nickrud: grrr. I'll reboot and get some food, see if that fixes it. then I'll dive into the recovery console if I have to. I wish I had a live CD.

[12:01] <nickrud> n0dding0ff, do you think it might have shown up as an eth* device? Mine did in feisty
[12:01] <n0dding0ff> nickrud: It did, but then it disappeared.
[12:01] <GoodHabit> Hello. Where I can find pptp vpn configurator? I cannot find it.
[12:01] <nickrud> DarkMessiah, I'm lazy. Could you paste that again, without the quotes?
