[17:30] <ikonia> zoe: I know this, and it's not what he needs as he's running the server install which is more than "no desktop"

[17:33] <Milotin> vishal,  i guess so
[17:33] <ikonia> ReS|UK: at a guess I'd say it's because your cdrom is on the same bus as your disk (just a guess)
[17:34] <LimCore> recent update gayified all my fonts - they are now very thin, is this a known problem?
[17:34] <ReS|UK> ikonia: There on different IDE cables.
[17:34] <ikonia> ReS|UK: same bus
[17:34] <ikonia> ReS|UK: is sda your disk or cdrom
[17:34] <LjL> LimCore: i don't think there is such thing as heterosexual fonts. please try to use technical, or at least normal, language.

 KaZeR, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop -> no need to reinstall?
[17:39] <SpiffyBalak> hey guys, can anyone help me with this problem? sometimes when I plug in my USB flash drives, it won't unmount until I log out and in again
[17:39] <wols_> noelferreira: is it open source? can you get its source? if so build the amd package yourself?
[17:39] <SpiffyBalak> the error happens at random
[17:39] <noelferreira> wols_ i can't find the source but yes i think it is opensource
[17:39] <atrophic> Two of my hard drives (1 large ext3 partition on each) show up as unallocated space when I boot into my installed OS (gutsy).  However, if I run a gutsy live CD I can mount them and they work fine.
[17:39] <LjL> SpiffyBalak: make sure you don't have any Nautilus windows open inside the drive, or any shell either. or any program with files from the drive still open.
[17:40] <SpiffyBalak> LjL: thanks
[17:40] <noelferreira> i think it is part of synce project
[17:40] <zoe> KaZeR, that will give you the ubuntu-desktop functionality. you will, however, still be running the server install, which may not be the best for you
[17:40] <ReS|UK> ikonia: I am running the cd check now and still getting the Buffer I/O error on device sda
[17:40] <KaZeR> zoe, then what's your advice? upgrade or reinstall?

[17:46] <atrophic> rangerguy39, Same place as the regular CD.  http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download  Just check the box that says "Check here if you need the alternate desktop CD."
[17:46] <mular> as a test in windows I can have like 5-6 windows playing videos.. no slowdown in ubuntu if I have two it crawls.. which is odd because generally ubuntu runs faster

[17:47] <atrophic> rangerguy39, no, freezing isn't normal.  The alternate CD uses a text based installer, which is much better for computers with less memory.

[17:51] <il12> I have a question (obviously) whenever you get a sec.

[17:51] <PointyThingsHurt> so for an ATI card, its best to use the restricted driver?
[17:52] <mular> I have p4 3.2gig and 2gigs of ram.. and a nvida 7800gt.. wouldn't think i have any slow down in ubuntu
[17:52] <atrophic> ryansmith, yes, there is.  Check out the man page for the mount command, it's analogous to the options that go in fstab
[17:52] <nonix4> How do I tell compiz to show the z-depth of the apps when middle-button rotating the cube?
[17:52] <qwaz> if im running fetchmail as a daemon, can i pass any arguments to it? like...'fetchmail -d -k 600?
[17:52] <brobostigon> use miro if flash doesnt work, thats my solution,may not be for everyone, but thats mine.
[17:52] <atrophic> bullgardd, "Run Application"
[17:53] <rangerguy39> atrophic, how does the text-based installer work?
[17:53] <KiD_ChAoS> erUSUL, does that mean that i chose the wrong screen in screens and graphics?
[17:53] <atrophic> rangerguy39, it's a little more advanced than the graphical one, but default options will work the vast majority of the time.
[17:54] <rangerguy39> is there a guide i can go by? im not good with advanced stuff =]
[17:54] <pacman2> can someone please help me with a via82xx AC97' card? I have no sound
[17:54] <brobostigon> i prefer the text installer, it much easier and quicker for me,
[17:54] <erUSUL> KiD_ChAoS: no; that's an xorg.conf missconfiguration... but i dunno why.
[17:54] <Sharpie> pacman2: are your speakers on?
[17:54] <atrophic> I have a weird hard drive problem.  Two of my hard drives (1 large ext3 partition on each) show up as unallocated space when I boot into my installed OS (gutsy).  However, if I run a gutsy live CD I can mount them and they work fine.
[17:54] <pacman2> yes
[17:54] <qwaz> if im running fetchmail as a daemon, can i pass any arguments to it? like...'fetchmail -d -k 600?
[17:54] <pacman2> I am on a laptop with intigrated speakers
[17:54] <Sharpie> pacman2: did you check it's not muted?
[17:54] <pacman2> Its not muted
[17:55] <eric2087> after installing gnash it doesn't look like my about:plugins has changed
[17:55] <atrophic> rangerguy39, probably, but I don't have a link to one.  Google it.  If you run into trouble and have a separate computer there's always help available in this channel
[17:55] <abionnnn> whatever you do, don't try and use the latest ATI drivers :(

[17:56] <pacman2> can somebody please help me? I have been looking for 2 days stright for the issue
[17:56] <skullhead> LjL; ya i see it sorry should i run it in terminal and try and get it there or just tell them whats going on?
[17:56] <eric2087> i go to youtube, i click a video and a popup saying i dont have the right plugins happens
[17:56] <atrophic> rangerguy39, I can't promise that.  I won't be on the computer long.  As I said though, it's still a relatively easy process, and people in here can help you if you're unsure of a choice.  If in doubt the default is probably best though.
[17:56] <eric2087> i just installed gnash
[17:57] <eric2087> what do i need to do now?
[17:57] <Sharpie> eric2087: nothing
[17:57] <LjL> skullhead: yes, and include that output in your bug report
[17:57] <rangerguy39> thanks
[17:57] <eric2087> ok, well its not working so... what do u recommend?
[17:57] <guerby> hi, what's the best way to do an ubuntu repository mirror (for my extended LAN)?
[17:57] <pacman2> can somebody please help me with my sound?
[17:57] <qwaz> if im running fetchmail as a daemon, can i pass any arguments to it? like...'fetchmail -d -k 600?
[17:57] <brobostigon> eric2087: try miro, that works for me,as i cant get flash to work, you can download and wathc youtube vids with it.
[17:58] <kmac> pacman2:  I had the same issue.  I had to use the PCM and headset volume controls on one PC.
[17:58] <eric2087> oh, so u cant watch vids in the browser with gnash?
[17:58] <tehm0nk> is there any channels for gaming?
[17:58] <giuseppe> hi, is it possible to see NTFD partition with kubuntu 7.10?
[17:58] <brobostigon> i cant
[17:58] <newbieee> my windows are appearing in all the pager...how do i fix them?
[17:58] <erUSUL> !ntfs | giuseppe
[17:58] <ubotu> giuseppe: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE
[17:58] <atrophic> pacman2, please don't beg.  Just state your problem and anybody that is able to help will.  Have you checked the forums?  If you ask your question there more people will see it, it just takes a little longer for a response.
[17:58] <giuseppe> !ntfs
[17:58] <qwaz> if im running fetchmail as a daemon, can i pass any arguments to it? like...'fetchmail -d -k 600?
[17:59] <Sharpie> !repeat | qwaz
[17:59] <ubotu> qwaz: 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
[17:59] <pacman2> I have checked everywhere
[17:59] <pacman2> and posted on the fourms
[17:59] <erUSUL> qwaz: how do you launch it?
[17:59] <teimu> pacman2, have you checked out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449? the "comprensive sound guide"?
[17:59] <Dr_willis> qwaz,  i imagind theres a fetchmail config you can set that stuff up in. Or check the fetchmail service  rc script.
[17:59] <il12> My sound is working little to none. Is there a recommended site for me to use in order to download the drivers for my sound?
[17:59] <pacman2> ill look, I might have
[17:59] <qwaz> erUSUL: fetchmail -d 600
[17:59] <kyu_flux> !patience
[17:59] <ubotu> The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[17:59] <qwaz> Sharpie: I wasn't repeating quickly, thanks though
[17:59] <brobostigon> !sound | il12
[17:59] <ubotu> il12: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[17:59] <Smurf-Slayer> Where can I go to get help with Pidgin GUI not showing up.  I'm useing Kubuntu 7.10, but #kubuntu says it is GNOME and that I have to get help here.
[18:00] <eric2087> this is seriously pissing me off
[18:00] <atrophic> qwaz, it was one minute apart :p
[18:00] <erUSUL> qwaz: and have you tried to add the other options you need?
[18:00] <qwaz> astro76: ok thanks
[18:00] <brobostigon> eric2087: use miro,
[18:00] <il12> TY.
[18:00] <ryansmith> atrophic: I see how to change which persons are able to mount the drive, but the uid and gid stuff isn't thoroughly explained, which I assume is what I need to change to get the necessary permissions
[18:00] <brobostigon> eric2087: use miro to watch and download youtube vids.
[18:01] <qwaz> erUSUL: Yah, I just want to leave mail on the server with -k...and I can't tell if my blackberry fetching it is removing them for the server or if default fetchmail -d is
[18:01] <newbieee> my windows are appearing in all the pager...how do i fix them?
[18:01] <ryansmith> atrophic: or is it the umask?
[18:01] <Old_Gregg> I have alsa enabled.  I have oss enabled.  I have followed the CrossOver instructions on enabling ALSA in CrossOver, yet I STILL have no sound.
[18:01] <eric2087> installing miro...
[18:01] <teimu> when trying to perform an ssh forward, the last output i get is "connecting to ...", then it times out in 20 seconds or so. Am I connected during this time? In other words, I am expecting some kind of connected message, but not seeing one.
[18:03] <erUSUL> qwaz: you can add those kind of things to the .fetchmailrc file iirc
[18:03] <buzz-cp> is anyone proficient with fluxbox?
[18:03] <Old_Gregg> Does anyone know anything about CrossOver and/or sound?
[18:03] <il12> I have another question: I would like to install Wine and I follow the ReadMe instructions, but it does not work that I can tell.
[18:03] <qwaz> erUSUL: ok...digging into that, thanks
[18:03] <brobostigon> old_gregg: sorry, dont use crossover, i use wine
[18:04] <esteth> How would i flush the dns cache on ubuntu?
[18:04] <atrophic> ryansmith, the uid/gid stuff will mount it as a particular user or group (and thus they'll have owner permissions).  That's probably your best bet.  The umask sets up default permissions on new files.
[18:04] <buzz-cp> il12: try wine /path/to/windows/file.exe
[18:04] <eric2087> this miro looks good only thing is i dont know how to get the videos from youtube
[18:04] <Old_Gregg> brobostigon:  have you had any problems with it not letting more than one application use the sound driver at once?
[18:04] <eric2087> i dont see a way to d/l the vids
[18:04] <ryansmith> Old_Gregg: I think crossover office has their own support system
[18:04] <steveire> Hi. I installed phpmyadmin and assumed it would put stuff in /var/www, but it didn't. How do I use it now?
[18:04] <il12> buzz-cp: I'm afraid I've only begun to use linux a few days ago. Where do I enter this? in a terminal window?
[18:04] <eric2087> plus its pretty lame u gotta d/l everyone then open it in a different app
[18:04] <eric2087> but thats fine
[18:04] <buzz-cp> il12: yes
[18:04] <il12> buzz-cp: ty
[18:05] <Old_Gregg> ryansmith:  That's kind of a joke.  When I go to their website and look up how to fix a problem, it's answers are like "You need to enable ALSA" and then goes on to the next question.  It's like.. uh, okay, how?
[18:05] <bullgard4> What is the terminal command to call the 'Run Application' dialog? (Alt+F2 equivalent)
[18:05] <buzz-cp> also you might get an ubuntu book or O'Reilly Linux in a nutshell.  these are handy
[18:05] <basvg> hi all. Is there an easy way to make all newly created windows transperant... or to make all newly created urxvt's transperant? Running Gutsy here with 'visual effects' set to medium
[18:05] <steveire> anyone?
[18:05] <brobostigon> aric2087: at the bottom of miros window, you should be able to change the search to youtube, and then search.
[18:05] <ryansmith> Old_Gregg: don't they have a support line though? It's a non-free program.
[18:06] <Kevin`> what do I have to do to be able to play encrypted dvds in ubuntu?
[18:06] <pacman2> teimu, I think you may have solved my issue
[18:06] <buzz-cp> ok is anyone good at fluxbox?  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=647959 <-- my thread
[18:06] <pacman2> Its still working, but it seems like it should work
[18:06] <eric2087> where is the d/l video link on youtube?
[18:06] <eric2087> when i click the picture it doesn't seem to take me to a point where i can d/l anything
[18:07] <Mohero> Hi all.
[18:07] <il12> ok. I entered wine /path/to.windows.file.exe into the terminal. it said it wasn't installed, said to install type sudo apt-get install wine. I did that. it is asking for my admin password but won't type it. What do I need to do?
[18:07] <il12> and that's path/to/window/file.exe**
[18:07] <eric2087> youtube video download... how?
[18:08] <buzz-cp> il12: as you type the admin passwd it is hidden from view
[18:08] <bunky24> where do i go to change the color of the text on my menu bar?
[18:08] <il12> buzz-cp: so I wouldn't even get asterisks?
[18:08] <il12> or bullets?
[18:08] <buzz-cp> il12: correct
[18:08] <teimu> pacman2, good luck
[18:08] <il12> ok. good to know
[18:08] <brobostigon> eric2087: have a look on packages.ubuntu.com, there are a few youtube download progs.
[18:08] <Mohero> eric2087 you can't download video's on youtube, but we're not really here to help with that :)
[18:08] <Ol1> Hi everybody! I have installed Ubuntu Studio 7.10 and have spent some time trying to figure out why it is so slow. It takes 15 seconds just to start up a simple program like Pidgin, Firefox or the file browser. It takes very long time to scroll. I have a 3.2Ghz CPU and 1GB RAM is this to little? Have I missed to do some nessesary tweaks?
[18:08] <Carb0n> eric2087: aptitude install youtube-dl
[18:08] <eric2087> k
[18:08] <eric2087> thx
[18:08] <Carb0n> Mohero: yes you can!
[18:09] <human> can anyone help me with wine soft
[18:09] <buzz-cp> il12: do you understand what I mean by /path/to/windows/exefile ?
[18:09] <Mohero> carb0n: i'll go quiet again then. :)
[18:09] <puli> hi
[18:09] <human> can anyone help me with wine soft??
[18:09] <buzz-cp> OK so no fluxbox users?
[18:09] <eric2087> i actually dont want to d/l them... but it seems to be the only way to watch them with miro
[18:09] <Carb0n> Mohero: hey, no offence.
[18:09] <eric2087> or am i missing something...
[18:09] <il12> buzz-cp: I'm afraid not. but this is working this far to install Wine. is there anything I should know about this before using it?
[18:09] <puli> hi guys is there any way to convert linux based pdfs to windows based pdfs
[18:10] <crush_groove> buzz-cp, /join #fluxbox
[18:10] <buzz-cp> crush_groove: thanks!
[18:10] <Mohero> in Miro, you just click the video to watch it eric2087
[18:10] <human> can u help how to install it
[18:10] <buzz-cp> il12: you should have a better understanding of getting around in a shell / terminal window
[18:10] <eric2087> yea... but how do u get the video there to be able to click on it?
[18:10] <dagon^> human; what's the problem dude? :)
[18:10] <steveire> There doesn't seem to be an ubuntu-lamp package in ubuntu. Is this right?
[18:10] <Carb0n> eric2087: In the newer view click details to see the link!
[18:11] <buzz-cp> il12: which is why i suggested Linux in a nutshell
[18:11] <jaxt0r> puli: pdf's are OS independent, no need to convert
[18:11] <human> is wine in the installer or i have to download it
[18:11] <Carb0n> eric2087: last I checked, it was on the upper right corner.
[18:11] <Mohero> human: sudo apt-get install wine
[18:11] <buzz-cp> let's suppose your windows file is here:  /media/sda1/Program\ Files/winamp/winamp.exe
[18:11] <bullgard4> Ol1: I cannot give you an exact answer. May be the network connection waits for a timeout. Reboot your computer without a network connection and see if it becomes faster. This would give a hint if its slow response is due to your network connection.
[18:11] <dagon^> human; have you done the 'sudo apt-get install wine' then eveything should be fine
[18:11] <Carb0n> eric2087: and don't forget youtube-dl package.  You need it to download the videos.
[18:11] <il12> buzz-cp: ty. I will definitely look for that. Christmas money put to good use. ;) will it work for most Linux distro's?
[18:12] <Mohero> human: it'll ask for your password, but doesn't "echo" anything back as you type it.
[18:12] <buzz-cp> il12 yea it's a general book
[18:12] <buzz-cp> an ubuntu book is good too
[18:12] <eric2087> i dont understand... in the newer view of what?
[18:12] <bullgard4> What is the terminal command to call the 'Run Application' dialog? (Alt+F2 equivalent)
[18:12] <eric2087> ok... i'll get that package
[18:13] <Carb0n> eric2087: Can you open YouTube?  Or are you just following a blind link?
[18:13] <human> this is the first time i am going to install linux
[18:13] <FurryNemesis> human, good luck
[18:13] <human> i dont know anything
[18:13] <basvg> hmm, guess hacking compiz is trickier than I thought :p
[18:13] <human> i just know how to install
[18:13] <il12> buzz-cp: ok. will def. look for that, too. and from my understanding Ubuntu is the 'mother' to kubuntu and xubuntu and edubuntu, yes? so an ubuntu book would be pretty good for those as well?
[18:13] <FurryNemesis> human, I suggest you back up everything first
[18:14] <Ol1> Thanks bullgard4 I shall try that.
[18:14] <human> ok
[18:14] <cav3man> help!! all my icons in my top bar keep jumbling up out of order!! make it stop!!! every time i start up :P
[18:14] <kmac> steveire:  I don't know of a complete lamp package in ubuntu.  Since you installed phpmyadmin, I would assume you already have apache and mysql installed, though...
[18:14] <dagon^> human; it's easier to help you if you highlight
[18:14] <human> but what is apt?
[18:14] <FurryNemesis> !apt > human
[18:14] <buzz-cp> il12: yes an ubuntu book.  those are really just sub-distros.  they're all basically the same
[18:14] <brobostigon> !apt | human
[18:14] <ubotu> human: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[18:15] <FurryNemesis> gah
[18:15] <eric2087> no, i'm going to youtube... it shows the pictures for the vids that u usually just click on to launch the video... unfortunately the picture is a link to a watch.html
[18:15] <eric2087> ok... youtube-dl installed
[18:15] <il12> buzz-cp: yay it's unpacking Wine now. ty so much. and I will definitely look for those books.
[18:15] <steveire> kmac: Yes. I have them installed, and I can see the default apache website phpmyadmin did not create anything in /var/www so http://localhost doesn't list it. I can't access it.
[18:15] <steveire> !lamp
[18:15] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[18:15] <caveman24> cane I get a few rcomendations for TV tuner cards that work in linux?
[18:15] <Carb0n> eric2087: Can you see the description of the video on the upper right corner?
[18:16] <nickrud> steveire, if you've installed phpmyadmin, you should find it at localhost/phpmyadmin
[18:16] <dagon^> caveman24; hauppage WinTV
[18:16] <buzz-cp> il12: also here is the wine main site: http://www.winehq.org/  you should know that wine is not a graphical tool--it's a command-line tool
[18:16] <bunky24> anyone know how to change the menu bars text/font color?
[18:16] <Carb0n> eric2087: if yes, click on the details (or more) link
[18:16] <caveman24> does it get HD?
[18:16] <dagon^> hmm
[18:16] <dagon^> don't know
[18:16] <steveire> nickrud: Hmmm, how does that get there without a symlink in /var/www?
[18:17] <dagon^> caveman24; haven't installed mine yet
[18:17] <human> ok
[18:17] <il12> buzz-cp: meaning... I would be able to only run the more simple command-line based applications with it?
[18:17] <buzz-cp> well everyone is apparently asleep in #fluxbox
[18:17] <buzz-cp> il12: no it runs graphical windows programs, but you run wine from the command line.
[18:17] <human> but what i will have do with apt to get apt
[18:17] <Old_Gregg> I have an on-board soundcard I am using because there is no driver for my other one
[18:17] <caveman24> setup isnt a problem, I just want hardware that works, ill look into that one, dont need HD, but it would be nice
[18:17] <il12> buzz-cp
[18:18] <il12> : aha.
[18:18] <Old_Gregg> how do I tell what soundcard it is in Ubuntu and how do I tell if I have the correct drivers for it?
[18:18] <brobostigon> human: apt is already in the base installation
[18:18] <eric2087> this is exactly what i'm looking at... if u go to youtube right now... the top video is a beer xmas tree video... to the top right of the picture it says, "Beer Tree: The Ultimate Christma..." is this what u are talking about?
[18:18] <human> ok
[18:18] <dagon^> caveman24; according to my research Hauppage WinTV is great for linux, has better drivers and such
[18:18] <Old_Gregg> I have an on-board soundcard I am using because there is no driver for my other one.  How do I tell what soundcard it is in Ubuntu and how do I tell if I have the correct drivers for it?
[18:19] <il12> buzz-cp: so, it says ldconfig deferred processing now taking place. So I just wait? because it has the il@il-laptop:-$ line up..
[18:19] <caveman24> cheap?
[18:19] <dagon^> Old_Gregg; I just run alsa and it works, I'm no linux-geek but that's how I've done all the time
[18:19] <nickrud> steveire, it's defined in /etc/apache2/conf.d/phpmyadmin, it uses apache's directives to remap that address
[18:19] <buzz-cp> il12: wait until you get the prompt back
[18:19] <Old_Gregg> dagon^:  I have been doing that, but it's very grainy.
[18:19] <dagon^> hmm
[18:19] <Carb0n> eric2087: No. and I can't browse youtube now.  I ask again, what is it that you want to do?
[18:20] <il12> buzz-cp: I thought this was the prompt, but then again I know next to nothing on this system.
[18:20] <human> i have motorola v360 which i use as a modem of internet is there any modem dirver on this set is included on apt ?
[18:20] <human> i have motorola v360 which i use as a modem of internet is there any modem dirver of this set is included on apt ?
[18:20] <il12> buzz-cp: I don't mean this window. but the il@il-laptop: was the prompt, or so I thought.
[18:20] <human> sorry
[18:20] <Carb0n> eric2087: what is it that you want to download?
[18:20] <eric2087> i just want to watch the videos... preferably in the browser to minimize the number of steps
[18:20] <Old_Gregg> Does anyone else have 5-10 second lock-ups when they are running WoW and anything else?  When I have World of Warcraft running and anything else open in the background, every few minutes, Ubuntu locks up for about 5-10 seconds.
[18:20] <eric2087> click and watch... that is my goal
[18:20] <eric2087> ie... the way its "supposed" to work
[18:21] <steveire> nickrud: I see. Thanks
[18:21] <buzz-cp> il12: il@il-laptop:  is your prompt
[18:21] <Carb0n> eric2087: OK. gotcha.  You need to install flashplayer-nonfree
[18:21] <brobostigon> eric2087: thats if flash works.
[18:21] <buzz-cp> il12: if you know the location of your windows executable, then you can launch it with wine.
[18:21] <human> i have motorola v360 which i use as a modem of internet is there any modem dirver of this set is included on apt ?
[18:21] <eric2087> since i cant seem to watch them... and since u said to use miro... and since miro seems to require that u have the video d/l therefore i was asking about how to d/l the video so i could watch it in miro
[18:21] <il12> buzz-cp: so this means it's finished and I can just enter the directory, etc and launch it?
[18:22] <brobostigon> human: have a look at the forums and then packages.ubuntu.com
[18:22] <eric2087> flash player install does work at the moment
[18:22] <eric2087> does NOT work
[18:22] <human> ok chacking
[18:22] <Carb0n> eric2087: I didn't say to use "miro" (what is that?).  Someone else did.  I thought you wanted to download flash videos.  sorry.
[18:23] <eric2087> oh... its a video watcher
[18:23] <eric2087> really i just want to watch the vid in the browser
[18:23] <Carb0n> eric2087: like totem?
[18:23] <eric2087> that would be fine
[18:23] <dagon^> eric2087; what's your problem man? :)
[18:23] <dagon^> can't watch youtube?
[18:23] <eric2087> lol
[18:23] <eric2087> ok
[18:23] <eric2087> this is what happens
[18:24] <eric2087> i open firefox
[18:24] <eric2087> i go to youtube
[18:24] <eric2087> i click a video
[18:24] <il12> brb
[18:24] <eric2087> another page opens up... and a popup says...
[18:24] <Old_Gregg> DOES ANYONE PLAY WOW IN UBUNTU?
[18:24] <erUSUL> !caps | Old_Gregg
[18:24] <ubotu> Old_Gregg: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[18:24] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  thers no need to yell.
[18:24] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  and a lot of people do.
[18:24] <eric2087> additional plugin required to display all the media on this page
[18:25] <Old_Gregg> erUSUL: Clearly not, been asking for WoW specific help for 3 days.
[18:25] <dagon^> eric2087; FF should prompt you to install flashplayer and you should be able to click yes a few times to install it
[18:25] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  if you have a question about Wine and WoW - you may want to check out the various wine forums. and the Wine channels.
[18:25] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis: How did you install it?
[18:25] <eric2087> i cant seem to get it to install the plugins needed
[18:25] <Carb0n> eric2087: aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree
[18:25] <erUSUL> Old_Gregg: maybe noone has encounter your problem so they do not know how to help you
[18:25] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,   I copied the WoW dir over from my windows install.
[18:25] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis: I am using CrossOver to install it, should I use Wine?
[18:25] <dagon^> my problem with flash is in Opera
[18:25] <erUSUL> !patience | Old_Gregg
[18:26] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  I would use the latest wine or Cedega.
[18:26] <Carb0n> dragon^: Is flashplugin-nonfree in medibuntu or what?
[18:26] <ubotu> Old_Gregg: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[18:26] <Dr_willis> Crossover is tweaked for Office and other apps. not games.
[18:26] <buzz-cp> il12: if you know the path to your windows exe yes
[18:26] <dagon^> Carb0n; please tab the nicks, I haven't got a single 'r' in my nick :)
[18:27] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  Are you busy?  I am brand new to linux and have not been able to use my $900 computer since I bought it last weekend.  I just want to play WoW and run Ventrilo.  That's it.
[18:27] <eric2087> md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[18:27] <eric2087> The Flash plugin is NOT installed.
[18:27] <Carb0n> dagon^: my mistake.  sorry.
[18:27] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  I dont play WoW any more.. and Im not sure how well wine supports Ventrillo.
[18:27] <dagon^> Carb0n; no need to excuse :) common mistake :P
[18:27] <erUSUL> eric2087: see the topic
[18:27] <Newuserr> Carb0n: flashplugin-non free doesnt work
[18:27] <Dr_willis> !appdb | Old_Gregg
[18:27] <ubotu> Old_Gregg: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org
[18:27] <erUSUL> !flashprob
[18:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about flashprob - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[18:27] <Carb0n> Newuserr: What do you mean "doesn't work"?
[18:28] <eric2087> erUSUL: what is the work around?
[18:28] <Carb0n> dagon^: :)
[18:28] <Dr_willis> !dosentwork
[18:28] <eric2087> !flashprob
[18:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dosentwork - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[18:28] <Newuserr> well i installed it but i couldnt play streams on youtube.com
[18:28] <erUSUL> !brokenflash | eric2087
[18:28] <ubotu> eric2087: The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix.
[18:28] <Newuserr> Carb0n:well i installed it but i couldnt play streams on youtube.com
[18:28] <dagon^> patience dudes :)
[18:29] <Carb0n> Newuserr: What browser are you using?
[18:29] <iDope> hello can anyone summarize in a few lines what to sed and awk do?
[18:29] <Newuserr> Carb0n:firefox, but it working now on my computer
[18:29] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  Thank you.
[18:29] <iDope> a stream editor is too vague an explanation
[18:29] <iDope> it has something to do with text parsing and inline editing right?
[18:30] <Carb0n> Newuserr: I use flashplugin-nonfree on my laptop in firefox just fine.  What is the problem? (I use Feisty)
[18:30] <Dr_willis> iDope,  they take the data comming in.. change it.. spit it back out.
[18:30] <basvg> hmm, what is the 'gl desktop' entry for in the system->preferences menu?
[18:30] <Newuserr> Carb0n:yes there it was working well i am using ubuntu 7.10
[18:30] <Dr_willis> cat foo | sed stuff | outputstuff Its in the middle of th stream of data
[18:30] <erUSUL> iDope: sed is a text editor and awk is a programming language oriented to tabuated data processing
[18:30] <dagon^> does anyone have problems with installing flash to Opera?
[18:31] <iDope> well I have a little problem here.. I have a stream of data coming in and i am looking for say a certain pattern
[18:31] <Dr_willis> iDope,  awk is rather amazing in what it can do. :)
[18:31] <Carb0n> dagon^: Are you manually unpacking the tar.gz or installing using apt?
[18:31] <iDope> once I find that pattern I need to look for a certain other pattern which occured just before it
[18:31] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  I know how to run CrossOver, but not Wine.  How do I start the install?
[18:31] <iDope> can they help me do that?
[18:31] <Dr_willis> iDope,  this is ascii/text data?
[18:31] <dagon^> Carb0n; apt didn't work so I tried manually but didn't work
[18:31] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  wine whatever.exe
[18:31] <papeng> http://svz2008.comphost.info/?id=21970 <<< no only 7 clicks left ;)
[18:31] <papeng> http://svz2008.comphost.info/?id=21970 <<< no only 7 clicks left ;)
[18:31] <iDope> the yes
[18:31] <Newuserr> does anybody know a good portsanner?
[18:32] <bullgard4> I do not understand line 340 in http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/23981/. Why is it necessary to test the existence of the file 85-anacron.sh instead of simply trying to run it?
[18:32] <basvg> iDope: can you give an example?
[18:32] <Carb0n> dagon^: Why doesn't apt work?
[18:32] <brobostigon> Newuserr: search packages.ubuntu.com , i am sure there are plenty.
[18:32] <fabian_> hjolas
[18:32] <Newuserr> dragon^: perhaps use it with sudo
[18:33] <FloodBot3> NOTICE - If you couldn't speak to the channel during the past minutes, please try again now.
[18:33] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  Okay, I got it started, but the font is all messed up.    Is there a way to do that in Wine as well?
[18:33] <FloodBot3> NOTICE - If you couldn't speak to the channel during the past minutes, please try again now.
[18:33] <iDope> i do a tcpdump with a grep on "GET"
[18:33] <poningru> hmm?
[18:33] <dagon^> Newuserr; I might be a noob but not _that_ noob :)
[18:33] <Newuserr> brobostigon:ok
[18:33] <iDope> and it gives me the URLs which are being retreived
[18:33] <Carb0n> dagon^: :-)
[18:33] <puli> hi
[18:33] <Newuserr> dragon^: lol
[18:33] <iDope> but not the retreivers IP
[18:33] <iDope> that comes a bit before the GET
[18:33] <Montego>  How do I change different backgrounds of each side of cube?
[18:33] <dagon^> Newuserr; I recommend you to tab the nicks too to avoid misunderstandings
[18:34] <soldierboy> nmap is a good port scanner
[18:34] <erUSUL> iDope: on the same line?
[18:34] <Carb0n> dagon^: What's breaking apt from installing flash?
[18:34] <iDope> no
[18:34] <puli> guys i have printed a page as pdf on linux not able to open it on windows can any one hlp pls
[18:34] <iDope> thats the whole problem
[18:34] <iDope> its never on the same line
[18:34] <Silver_Fox> Merry almost Christmas eve everyone!
[18:34] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  ive never needed to mess with fonts under wine. You have installed the ms fonts on your linux box
[18:34] <iDope> its always a variable number of lines before the GET line
[18:34] <dagon^> Carb0n; can't remember right now but i complained, doesn't matter anymore :)
[18:34] <brobostigon> adobe is breaking flash from installing using apt.
[18:34] <Dr_willis> !info mstcorefonts
[18:34] <ubotu> Package mstcorefonts does not exist in gutsy
[18:34] <basvg> iDope: you may want to write a small perl/ruby/python thingy for that
[18:34] <Dr_willis> Hmm what is that package..
[18:34] <dagon^> Carb0n; I was just curious if anyone else had problems
[18:34] <puli> guys i have printed a page as pdf on linux not able to open it on windows can any one hlp pls
[18:34] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  I'm not sure I understand.  Are you saying I have or that I need to install MS fonts?
[18:34] <iDope> if it was fixed it would have still been do able
[18:35] <buzz-cp> can I just say, I LOVE UBUNTU!?!?!?
[18:35] <dagon^> sure
[18:35] <Carb0n> dagon^: I don't seem to.  Try enabling medibuntu repo for a change and see what happens.
[18:35] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  install the 'ubuntu-restricted-extras' package for a start. I think it installs the proper MS fonts packages
[18:35] <Montego> Also anyone know how I can stop the flooding in here. What commands do I use
[18:35] <eth01> heh, it's not that great -.-
[18:35] <jewbilee> does anyone know where OpenOffice keeps its icon files?
[18:35] <soldierboy> wow in wine ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=120615
[18:35] <erUSUL> Old_Gregg: msttcorefonts is the package for MS fonts
[18:35] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras   ?
[18:35] <Dr_willis> Montego,  depends on your irc client
[18:35] <dagon^> Carb0n; ok, I'll try that, when I've got more time :)
[18:35] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  yes. or use the pacakge manager.
[18:35] <Montego> xchat-gnome 0.18
[18:36] <Cpudan80> jewbilee: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/
[18:36] <Old_Gregg> erUSUL:  Thanks.  Sorry I was grumpy earlier.  I'm very frustrated with linux.
[18:36] <Carb0n> dagon^: Take your own time. Best of luck. :)
[18:36] <iDope> I know python and was thinking about doing that, just wanted to check if there was a simpler way using grep/sed/awk
[18:36] <puli> hi there any one to help me pls
[18:36] <dagon^> Carb0n; thx :]
[18:36] <buzz-cp> pull: what's up
[18:36] <Silver_Fox> Hey, I'v got a question.  How do I put different desktop wallpapers in each desktop
[18:36] <Montego> Dr_Willis xchat-gnome 0.18
[18:36] <iDope> well off to my little script then
[18:36] <dagon^> puli; shoot
[18:36] <Carb0n> dagon^: Anytime.  Thanks to you for teaching me the tab-the-nick tip! :-)
[18:36] <Dr_willis> Montego,  you may want to try out the normal xchat program. Not the xchat-gnome
[18:36] <erUSUL> Old_Gregg: no problem we all have been through some less than reguarding experience with linux or computing in general
[18:37] <dagon^> Silver_Fox; Settings -> Wallpaper
[18:37] <puli> i have printed a page as post scrit on linux , i am not able to open it with acrobat on windows
[18:37] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  You are grumpy with WoW and Wine.. thats not technicially 'linux' :)
[18:37] <buzz-cp> puli: post-script is not the same as pdf
[18:37] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  Actually, just CrossOver.
[18:37] <Montego> How do I stop Joins And leaves? Should be a switch for that
[18:37] <Carb0n> puli: You need Adobe distiller to convert it into PDF
[18:37] <buzz-cp> puli: apt-get install cups-pdf
[18:38] <Carb0n> puli: Or you might have forgotten the .ps extension.  Which one?
[18:38] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  I have to switch the disks, but it won't let me open it.  In CrossOver, I had a screen where I clicked "Eject CD" .  I'm not seeing one for Wine...
[18:38] <puli> i have got wdobe writer is it the same with distiller
[18:38] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  using the wrong tool for the job >:)  Then again - dont expect windows apps to run flawlessly under wine either.
[18:38] <Carb0n> puli: not the same.
[18:38] <puli> ii printed this page after installing cups
[18:38] <MrPiracy> how can I find out where an specific program is installed on my system?
[18:38] <Carb0n> puli: goto commandline  -- type ps2pdf <filename.ps>
[18:38] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  i told ya earlier - i just copied all the data files from a Windows INstall. You could copy all the disks contents to one dir.  THEN run the installer from that dir. Theres often issues with wine and multi-cd installers
[18:39] <Silver_Fox> dagon^, how do i get to the wallpaper settings?
[18:39] <brobostigon> old_gregg: wndows apps dont even tun properly unser windows
[18:39] <Montego> I'm Using Ubuntu 7.10. Does anyone know how to use different backgrounds On the cube? How
[18:39] <MrPiracy> i need to know where amule is installed so I can add a protocol handler for firefox
[18:39] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  I just want to play WoW and listen to my friends on vent.  That's all I built this machine for.  The guy at Fry's said Linux was faster, more stable, and just as easy to install.  Faster, maybe.  More stable, I agree.  Easy to install?  HA!
[18:39] <puli> is there any way out without using command line
[18:39] <dagon^> Silver_Fox; do you run kde/gnome/fluxbox?
[18:39] <Silver_Fox> montego` thats exactly my question...
[18:39] <Old_Gregg> HAHA!
[18:39] <kane77> I like to hibernate my computer, but after few days of usage & hibernation I always have lots of programs (showed by ps -A) that are marked as <defunct> what do I do about them? because some programs then won't work...
[18:40] <Silver_Fox> dagon^,  well, i want it to work on compiz fusion
[18:40] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis: I actually figured something out on my own!
[18:40] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  cdeject from terminal for the win!
[18:40] <aligatoras> #ftou
[18:40] <Carb0n> puli: yeah.  ask someone to do it. :)
[18:40] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  you should do more research. the OS is faster and more stable.. and easy to install.. YOu are having issues with a very very very specific thing.. that  a lot of people have working.. but is not linux specific
[18:40] <dagon^> Silver_Fox; ah ok, sorry then. I'm not a big fan of BlingBling2007 ;)
[18:40] <puli> i am not a techie acrbon
[18:40] <Carb0n> puli: Neither am I.
[18:40] <puli> just started learning ubuntoo
[18:40] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  Patience is a virtue and I'm not one you could call virtuous.
[18:40] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,   i hate to even think how big of updates you are going to have to do once you start up WoW the first time.
[18:40] <Silver_Fox> bling bling?  o.O
[18:40] <kyu_flux> Old_Gregg: I love your nick =)
[18:40] <Carb0n> puli: It's Ubuntu!
[18:41] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  go back to windows then.. or you may want to try out cedega.
[18:41] <Old_Gregg> kyu_flux:  Thanks
[18:41] <Montego> Silver_Fox Yea I have the Compiz config open but dont see the option in it?
[18:41] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  or learn some patience.
[18:41] <puli> thanks
[18:41] <human> thanks all
[18:41] <Carb0n> puli: anytime
[18:41] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  you will have a lot of time to read up on linux while WoW Updates i bet. :)
[18:41] <human> see u soon
[18:41] <dagon^> Silver_Fox; yeah, compiz is a blingbling-program :P but it should be the same, on the startpanel 'Settings -> Wallpaper'
[18:41] <Silver_Fox> Montego,  theres an option on Beryl settings, but i think you have to have another thing or somthing, because i tryed it and it dident work.
[18:42] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  very much so.  took 2 hours last time.  I had it working, but I couldn't have vent and wow running at the same time and have sound on both.  I followed the CrossOver instructions and it borked my sound completely.
[18:42] <Silver_Fox> dagon^,  theres no settings on the ubuntu start panel
[18:42] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  How do I copy the installation files to my computer to run it from there?
[18:42] <dagon^> Silver_Fox; hmm, weird
[18:42] <Montego> Silver_Fox Yea it's confusing Theres like 3 different editors.
[18:43] <fluxy> Hello. I am unable to update my mime database. It says I don't have the permissions, despite me running it as root. Any ideas please?
[18:43] <TheMafia> does the commercial repo of vmware-server work on gutsy?
[18:43] <BL4VAL> can someone help me get my sound work? i'm new to ubuntu.
[18:43] <dagon^> BL4VAL; what's the trouble?
[18:43] <Carb0n> fluxy: running as root. Big mistake. :(
[18:44] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  put cd in the disk.. access it.. copy files over to a dir..  eject cd.. put in next one.. repeate.
[18:44] <fluxy> Carb0n: I know, but I just need this dang thing to work.
[18:44] <Montego> Silver_Fox Found the Caps for the top and bottom of the cube though
[18:44] <godzirra> Quick question, I hope...  I've got suspend to ram working on my laptop when I hit the power button then hit suspend to ram, but how do I get it to suspend to ram when I put the lid down... or at least hibernate when I put the lid down?
[18:44] <thorm> Is there any .IMG burner, like the ISO Burner in UBUNTU? i have searched synaptic with no good answers!
[18:44] <brobostigon> !sound | bl4val
[18:44] <ubotu> bl4val: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[18:44] <Carb0n> fluxy: sudo to the rescue.
[18:44] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  sound may still be an issue depending on your sound card.
[18:44] <thorm> !img
[18:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about img - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[18:44] <thorm> !iso
[18:44] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[18:44] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  Same directory or should I make a CD_1 directory, CD_2, etc.
[18:44] <Silver_Fox> Montego,  ya, thats a cool feature
[18:44] <Dr_willis> put them all in the same dir Old_Gregg
[18:45] <thorm> Anyone can help me on this?
[18:45] <fluxy> Carb0n: Tried, in vain. Doesn't get update-mime-database to work.
[18:45] <godzirra> thorm: Do .img files allow you to just right click them and click write to disk like iso's do?
[18:45] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  okay.  Thanks again.  And as far as sound, does Wine intuitively enable multiple applications to use the driver at once?
[18:45] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  You still have the install from the Crossover in a dir somewhere? or is it gone also?
[18:45] <mboldisc> I'm having trouble installing the 32-bit JDK on AMD-64-bit Gusty.  Anyone have similar problems?
[18:45] <puli> hi
[18:45] <Carb0n> fluxy: Why do you need to update mime-db in the first place?
[18:45] <thorm> no they do not godzirra
[18:45] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  completely removed
[18:45] <mboldisc> I'm using the self-extracting file from Sun.
[18:46] <Carb0n> fluxy: if it is to add some file format, do it in ~/.mime
[18:46] <godzirra> thorm: Sorry... thats all I had. ;)
[18:46] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  sound and multi apps - can be an issue dependiong on the soudn card.. wine adds further  complexity to the issue. Ive not had issues with this and my  Creative cards. Onboard cards May be an issue
[18:46] <fluxy> Carb0n: to allow .docx be recognised as application/msword instead of application/zip
[18:46] <fluxy> Carb0n: ok thx. i'll try that
[18:46] <thorm> and i cannot get the "open with another program" to work godzirra.. u know how to choose DVD/CD BURNER application?
[18:46] <eric2087> ok, my flash is working... thanks for all the help
[18:46] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  heck when i was playing WoW. I kept a 'clean' install - backed up just so i wouldent have to reinstall the game.
[18:46] <joanki> i just put virtual box on my new ubuntu - it's AMAZING!
[18:47] <jewbilee> Using SSH, whenever I run emacs with a file on a host machine, my client machine will not open it up as a windowed program, it puts it in the terminal, how do i get it to run in a seperate emacs window?
[18:47] <godzirra> thorm: I have no idea to be honest.  I just stick in a blank disk if I want to record normal files to a disk, or I right click an iso and click write to disk if its an iso.  No idea on .img's.
[18:47] <eric2087> where can i write down what i did to help out other people who need flash help
[18:47] <TheMafia> where are the vmware-server-kernel-modules located?
[18:47] <brobostigon> thorm: packages.ubuntu.com search the for a ne cd dvd buner
[18:47] <joanki> quick question.... if my ubuntu op sys works fine, then does that mean i do not need to install the drivers on my virtualbox windows xp?
[18:47] <eric2087> there gotta be millions
[18:47] <godzirra> Quick question, I hope...  I've got suspend to ram working on my laptop when I hit the power button then hit suspend to ram, but how do I get it to suspend to ram when I put the lid down... or at least hibernate when I put the lid down?
[18:47] <puli> can i convert post script to pdf
[18:47] <puli> pls
[18:47] <dagon^> eric2087; nano
[18:47] <thorm> im gonna try that then brobostigon
[18:47] <eric2087> no i mean... where can i post what i did to get flash working
[18:47] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  I have a kick ass sound card, but Creative Labs only released a buggy 64-bit driver for it.  I tried doing Ubuntu 64-bit, but then I had all kinds of other problems.  I've decided to stick with 32-bit and just use the onboard.
[18:47] <eric2087> so others can do the same
[18:47] <godzirra> puli: apt-cache search pdftops.
[18:47] <fluxy> Carb0n: Umm..Which file do I have to edit exactly?
[18:47] <godzirra> puli: or maybe its pstopdf.  Search.
[18:47] <dagon^> eric2087; my bad :P
[18:48] <eric2087> heh
[18:48] <dagon^> eric2087; try the ubuntuforum
[18:48] <Carb0n> fluxy: touch ~/.mime
[18:48] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  and won't the files copy over themselves if I put them all in the same directory?
[18:48] <eric2087> k... thx alot guys
[18:48] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  you have a xi-fi card eh...  Yep Creative dropped the ball on that one. sadly.
[18:48] <eric2087> i'll post right now
[18:48] <Carb0n> fluxy: edit ~/.mime -- add the format you wish to add
[18:48] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  No idea..  they proberly have different names.
[18:48] <fluxy> Carb0n: xml format?
[18:48] <kyu_flux> anyone know of a better last.fm player than the official client?
[18:48] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  ive installed dozens of games by copying th files to dirs that way.
[18:48] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  Yea, I should not have blindly listened to the guy at Fry's.  I'm usually much better about these sort of things, but I got lazy.
[18:48] <dagon^> does anyone have trouble running monodevelop?
[18:48] <malnilion> kyu_flux, how about amarok?
[18:49] <dagon^> I can't seem to get simple projects to work
[18:49] <malnilion> It's not better, but it integrates it.
[18:49] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  if the guy suggested Linux AND a Xi-Fi Card.. he really was not up to speed.
[18:49] <kyu_flux> malnilion: i'll give it a try. thanks. =)
[18:49] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  of course suggesting Linux for a 'power gamer' is also not  a good idea.
[18:49] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  He also said all I had to do was put the CD in and it would install everything just like windows.
[18:49] <malnilion> kyu_flux, plus amarok is my favorite audio app for linux :P
[18:49] <Carb0n> fluxy: refer /etc/mime.types for the format
[18:50] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  this is when the buyer should do his own research.
[18:50] <kyu_flux> malnilion: awesome, I've been looking for a better player as it is anyways. can't really stand totem...
[18:50] <fluxy> Carb0n: Thank you very much
[18:50] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  the ubuntu linux installer works amazingly well. :)
[18:50] <Carb0n> puli: Did you try ps2pdf. Or are you afraid to tread hot waters?
[18:50] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  Yea, I regret it.
[18:50] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  it installs better then windows does for me.
[18:50] <oix> hi
[18:50] <Carb0n> fluxy: my pleasure.
[18:50] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  It does for putting Ubuntu on there.  But for configuring everything it seems to be all by hand.
[18:50] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  i dual boot to windows to play Crysis and other games on my machines.
[18:50] <puli> carbon i tried searching with synaptic updater
[18:51] <puli> did not work out
[18:51] <J-E-L-L-0> ikonia: how do i know which device the drives are?  like sda1 or sda2
[18:51] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  thats not linux's fault you are doing some rather 'out there' things. :)
[18:51] <hotbard7> با سلام
[18:51] <romistrub> Dr_willis: You can play Crisis -.-
[18:51] <oix> who can tell me what I have to do to install Medibuntu?
[18:51] <kljb> Hi, since my update to Gutsy, one of my two soundcards isnt working anymore, hopefully someone can help me. Here are some details: http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/17909/
[18:51] <Dr_willis> romistrub,  I dont play it under linux.. i boot to windows
[18:51] <fluxy> J-E-L-L-O: fdisk -l
[18:51] <hotbard7> دوستان من وقتی این مسیر انتخاب می  کنم کامپیونتر قفل می کنه
[18:51] <PriceChild> oix, do you know what medibuntu is?
[18:51] <PriceChild> !en | hotbard7
[18:51] <ubotu> hotbard7: The #ubuntu, #kubuntu and #xubuntu channels are english only. For a complete list of channels in other languages, please visit http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat
[18:51] <romistrub> hotbard7: Wo... wah.... wooaahhh...
[18:52] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  I have XP pro installation files, but I can't get them to burn to a CD properly.  In a perfect world, I can create a windows partition, install XP on the partition from Ubuntu, and make the windows partition the primary boot partition.  Problem solved, and I'm a happy duck.  Do you know hot to do that?
[18:52] <romistrub> hotbard7: Arabic?
[18:52] <hotbard7> system>preferences>screensaver
[18:52] <oix> I think that I know, yes PriceChild
[18:52] <PriceChild> oix, medibuntu is just a repository
[18:52] <fluxy> hotboard7: interesting. i only know how to pronounce nt the meanings =)
[18:52] <Dr_willis> Old_Greg go to #kubuntu and chat with tehm0nk hes also using WoW and Linux and wine. i think.
[18:53] <oix> oki, I want to download its packages
[18:53] <basvg> how do I prevent the notification of 'To run a command as administrator (user "root"), use "sudo <command>"' every time I start a shell ?
[18:53] <Ranpha1> Hi what is a good GUi program to dial for a umts connection?
[18:53] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  Im Not using the stuff any more.. so :)
[18:53] <PriceChild> oix, have you read their howto on their website?
[18:53] <oix> yes
[18:53] <PriceChild> oix, could you link me to the howto that you're reading, and tell me what you don't understand?
[18:54] <Old_Gregg> Dr_willis:  It is possible to create a windows-capable partition from Ubuntu though, right?
[18:54] <DPi1> i need help dual-booting windows. I'm getting an NTDLR not found
[18:54] <kljb> Hi, since my update to Gutsy, one of my two soundcards isnt working anymore, hopefully someone can help me. Here are some details: http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/17909/
[18:54] <oix> I have a command line to execute in the terminal, I executed it, but I have no results
[18:54] <dagon^> kljb; take it easy :) look at the english ubuntuforum, this is a common problem I think
[18:55] <godzirra> What the heck is the name of the python image library called?  I can't find itr in apt...
[18:55] <PriceChild> oix, and the link you are reading? (in linux, no output often means success)
[18:55] <DPi1> can someone help me dual-boot? I keep getting NTLDR not found
[18:55] <oix> PriceChild this is the link http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/depots#medibuntu it's in french
[18:55] <J-E-L-L-0> wait.. gparted is the graphical tool right?  I have no X server on this machine
[18:56] <thorm> there was none
[18:56] <thorm> what is the name of the default dvd/cd burner?
[18:56] <thorm> software that is
[18:56] <PriceChild> oix, so have you added the first black bit here: http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/depots_gutsy#depots_medibuntu to your /etc/apt/sources.list file?
[18:56] <TheEagle> where are the C header files that match my running kernel?
[18:56] <PriceChild> TheEagle, not installed by default
[18:56] <Old_Gregg> Does anyone know how to create a windows-capable partition from Ubuntu?  I'd like to install Windows from Ubuntu (not a boot CD) to a second partition.
[18:57] <oix> I'm with Feisty
[18:57] <fluxy> J-E-L-L-): use-> sudo fdisk-l
[18:57] <TheEagle> how do i install them
[18:57] <PriceChild> TheEagle, sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[18:57] <TheMafia> does gpilotd crash in gutsy for everyone?
[18:57] <kyu_flux> malnilion: awesome, i'm giving amarok a try now. I think I like what I'm seeing so far...
[18:57] <PriceChild> oix, replace any "gutsy"s with "feisty" then
[18:57] <DPi1> Old_Gregg: use gparted on the live CD to crate a ntfs partition
[18:58] <Old_Gregg> DPi1:  Forgive my ignorance, but how do I do that?
[18:58] <J-E-L-L-0> fluxy: i did to create the partition.. now i need to format it and mount it
[18:58] <Carb0n> puli: you still there?
[18:58] <DPi1> well, first, you'll want to backup your data
[18:58] <DPi1> it's always important to have a backup of your data
[18:58] <fluxy> J-E-L-L-0: to format use-> sudo cfdisk
[18:58] <puli> yes carbon
[18:58] <DPi1> ...i learned that the hard way-- you don't want to
[18:58] <Old_Gregg> DPi1:  I have no data.  Pretty much clean Ubuntu install.
[18:59] <SoteriouLoucas> hello
[18:59] <SoteriouLoucas> i have a problem unistalling kde session
[18:59] <DPi1> well then just pop in the liveCD and go to system>admin>partition editor
[18:59] <Carb0n> puli: what do you get when you type ps2pdf in the commandline?
[18:59] <Carb0n> puli: Ubuntu will suggest the container package -- usually.
[19:00] <dagon^> SoteriouLoucas; use Synaptics
[19:00] <dagon^> search for 'kde' and remove everything
[19:00] <fluxy> J-E-L-L-0: to mount -> sudo mkdir /media/<dirname> and then -> sudo mount <dev> -t <type> /media/<dirname>
[19:00] <TheEagle> PriceChild: why -$(uname -r)
[19:00] <TheEagle> I see Now
[19:01] <Carb0n> puli: I guess it comes with gs-common
[19:01] <TheEagle> sorry, momentart lapse in brain functionality
[19:01] <TheEagle> *momentary
[19:01] <oix> it doesn't work!!! :s
[19:01] <DPi1> can someone help me fix my NTLDR not found problem???
[19:01] <fluxy> J-E-L-L-0: for more info on mounting and filesystem types, see man mount. you can try the option '-t auto'
[19:01] <godzirra> Quick question, I hope...  I've got suspend to ram working on my laptop when I hit the power button then hit suspend to ram, but how do I get it to suspend to ram when I put the lid down... or at least hibernate when I put the lid down?
[19:02] <fluxy> godzirra: Preferences > Power Management is your friend
[19:02] <godzirra> fluxy: thanks.
[19:02] <J-E-L-L-0> tyvm

[19:02] <fluxy> J-E-L-L-0: np
[19:03] <atarinox> I just installed gutsy on my IBM thinkpad, now everytime I try to configure the network settings everything freezes and I have to do a hard reset. Any idea what the problem could be?
[19:04] <godzirra> fluxy: One more question... it says "when the computer is inactive" does that mean when I don't type anything for a while?  i.e. it will happen if i'm downloading something?
[19:04] <mboldisc> Did they remove all 32-bit libraries from 64-bit Gusty?
[19:04] <J-E-L-L-0> fluxy: i did sudo cfdisk and it sees the partition there, but doesnt give me an option to format it.. do i have to format it like you do a windows partition or is it formatted as soon as the partition is created?
[19:04] <SoteriouLoucas> dagon thanx a lot:) i think i am sleeping thanx works
[19:04] <DPi1> Is there anybody who can help me with getting my dual-boot to work?????
[19:04] <badkitty> Di1: sure
[19:05] <soldierboy> DPil what problems are you having?
[19:05] <badkitty> DPi1: what is the problem
[19:05] <DPi1> badkitty: thanks, i keep getting an NTLDR not found
[19:05] <lbe> Anyone but me having problems with installing flashplayer-nonfree?
[19:05] <soldierboy> been a while, doesn't 'fixboot' fix this?
[19:05] <LjL> !flash > lbe    (lbe, see the private message from Ubotu)
[19:05] <soldierboy> haven't' used windows in ages
[19:06] <badkitty> DPi1: hmm... yah im not sure are these both new installs, or how did you try to setup the dual boot
[19:06] <il12> what's the difference in the CD version of Ubuntu/Kubuntu and the DVD besides their size?
[19:06] <Flannel> il12: the DVD is the Desktop CD and the alternate CD combined (plus some more extra packages in the repository)
[19:06] <fluxy> J-E-L-L-0: change type and then write do confirm changes
[19:06] <DPi1> they're on two separate HDDs Ubuntu is on the master, windows is on the slave. ubuntu is a fresh install
[19:07] <fluxy> godzirra: I am not sure, but I think it is when you're not typing
[19:07] <cocox> hi there ppl i've been googling about compiz and beryl and its quite confusing... one merges with the other but with is the latest??? in some web sites says that beryl is compiz continuation and in wikipedia says that compiz fuze is the latest...
[19:07] <Flannel> cocox: compiz-fusion is the latest
[19:07] <soldierboy> DPil, use windows CD to boot into console and type 'fixboot' to see if that helps you
[19:07] <il12> Flannel: is there any significant difference? well, a better question: is there somewhere perhaps that has an 'official' list of the differences?
[19:07] <godzirra> fluxy: ok... thakns.
[19:07] <DPi1> soldier boy, do i risk losing data if i do that?
[19:07] <cocox> Flannel, and what about Xgl or AIGLX, which one is the latest??
[19:07] <soldierboy> no
[19:07] <godzirra> Last question... what is the name of the python image library?  I can't find it in apt...
[19:08] <Flannel> il12: those are the official differences.  What do you mean signifigant?  since, including both is rather signifigant.  What are you asking for?
[19:08] <badkitty> cocox: Use compiz-fusion :-)
[19:08] <Mba7eth> hi guys ... .can i download the whole dictionary that come up with linux , ?i want to use it offline
[19:08] <fluxy> godzirra: Set Put Computer to sleep when inactive to never and display to sleep to something you like (it will only turn screen off i think)
[19:08] <Flannel> cocox: Neither is later really, they're different approaches to the same problem
[19:08] <godzirra> fluxy: thats what I did. :)
[19:08] <godzirra> Then I set lid close to hibernate.
[19:08] <godzirra> so if i'm downloading I can just leave the lid open.
[19:08] <badkitty>  DPi1: have you read this? http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000465.htm
[19:09] <oix> PriceChild, it donesn't work, I found the link to the Feisty page, but it's the same, I have no results
[19:09] <cocox> Flannel, badkitty do you guys have some interesting link about how to move from compiz to compiz-fusion?
[19:09] <fluxy> godzirra: I prefer it on Blank Screen (I close the lid when people get in my room =P )
[19:09] <atarinox> can anybody recommend a size for my swap, root, and home partitions if I have a 30gb hd?
[19:09] <il12> Flannel: sorry, I'm not quite sure how to ask what it is that I want to know. I just started with Ubuntu a few days ago. working on getting some Ubuntu and Linux books. Ok, so is there a list of the extra packages in the repository?
[19:09] <Flannel> godzirra: Like python-gd? or what?
[19:09] <cocox> badkitty, Flannel Xgl or AIGLx which one could you recommend me ??
[19:09] <badkitty> cocox: You are using compiz right now?
[19:09] <Flannel> il12: do you have an internet connection on this machine?
[19:09] <murchadh> Hi all! I can't log in from kdm as some of my keyboard keys aren't recognised. Switch to terminal and they're fine. Any ideas? I posted in #kubuntu but no joy. I have the same problem if I use gdm.
[19:10] <fabio_> OpenPGP key
[19:10] <fluxy> atarinox: swap depends on the ram u have (or atleast you think you may have for the next months you will be using ubuntu)
[19:10] <il12> Flannel: I'm using it now.
[19:10] <fabio_> any one knows?
[19:10] <badkitty> cocox: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[19:10] <Flannel> il12: The packages on the DVD are only really useful if you need to install them without the internet.  *all* of the packages are available in the online repositories.
[19:10] <atarinox> fluxy: i've got 256mb ram
[19:10] <Flannel> il12: the DVD and CD images install an identical system
[19:11] <il12> Flannel: alright, thank you, just wondering if it would be beneficial to deal with the 2 day dl for the DVD. Thank you. :)
[19:11] <fluxy> atarinox: home and root ....depends on u. u can have only root (and no dedicated /home partition) if u unsure how much space ur home dir gonna need (better if u have only one OS - ubuntu - and plan to use it for a very long time)
[19:11] <il12> but that answered my question.
[19:11] <Flannel> il12: No, definately not

[19:16] <sam_> hey can someone help me fix my synaptic manager?
[19:16] <badkitty> yeah! backtrack finished downloading!
[19:17] <cocox> badkitty Flannel yes i did upgrade, how could i see if it is compiz-fuzion??? gutsy comes with it?
[19:17] <badkitty> dcrews: set up the channel.. what exactly are you trying to do, join a channel automatically every time you start pidgen??
[19:17] <fluxy> Glich: I dunno much, but you got the codecs installed?
[19:17] <Glich> ye
[19:17] <Glich> it worked once but then didn't and I duno what I did
[19:18] <mc_> do you know any decent bittorrent client that I can use on my server(so without X11). I'm currently using the bittorrent and bittornado package,but both of them do not support distributed tracking which sucks.
[19:18] <eric2087> quick question... how come when i post in ubuntu forum my subject line is not bold like everyone else?
[19:18] <crdlb> mc_: rtorrent
[19:18] <eric2087> even if i put bold tags on it
[19:18] <badkitty> cocox: Yes compiz-fusion i believe is the default eyecandy for gutsy... to check I suppose you could look in synaptic or view your splash screen
[19:19] <Tilllinux> heya :) is there a plugin/script/whatever which enables media-players (like rhythmbox, audacious...) to paste their now playing info into some kind of clipboard, so that you could paste the np info with a shortcut?
[19:19] <godzirra> So is the only way to get different desktops on different cube walls (As well as keeping your icons) changing away from nautilus to KD?
[19:19] <godzirra> KDE
[19:19] <mc_> crdlb: does it support distributed tracking?
[19:19] <crdlb> godzirra: it can't be done in kde either
[19:19] <godzirra> Well crap.
[19:19] <godzirra> how can I do it then?
[19:19] <cocox> badkitty thank y
[19:19] <cocox> uo
[19:19] <badkitty> :-)
[19:19] <crdlb> godzirra: unless you patch kdesktop (there are patches for nautilus too)
[19:20] <godzirra> Yeah, I tried to install them and had issues.
[19:20] <manny_> Can anyone give me some advice on installing drivers for a Nvidia 6800 GT, i've done everything in the support Docs and when i try them i get stuck in low graphics mode
[19:20] <godzirra> Like nautilus source couldnt find all the packages I already had installed to support it.
[19:20] <crdlb> mc_: not sure, but I have to go
[19:20] <crdlb> it's much better than bittorrent in every way though
[19:20] <godzirra> But thats the only option is patching nautilus?
[19:20] <badkitty> manny, are you on gutsy?
[19:20] <godzirra> This seems so trivial. :/
[19:20] <manny_> I am on 7.10
[19:21] <crdlb> godzirra: if you want desktop icons, yes
[19:21] <godzirra> bleh.  Guess I'll go read up more on that.
[19:21] <godzirra> Is there a good how to on doing that on gutsy without screwing up everytthing else?
[19:21] <badkitty> manny: when you installed the drivers, did you follow a script or did ubuntu prompt you to install the drivers
[19:21] <BL4VAL> could someone help me get my sound working?
[19:21] <manny_> i followed a script, i can get you the exact guide actually
[19:22] <badkitty> manny: Gutsy hasa script built in to install restricted drivers for nvidia and ati
[19:22] <BL4VAL> i have a realtek soundcard
[19:22] <manny_> yes, i tried the restricted drivers program as well
[19:23] <badkitty> manny: thats what I used this time and it went perfect, i forget if there was a repository to add or not though, but it was very easy
[19:23] <fr00d> Hello!

[19:25] <fr00d> I'm using xorg and having problems with my resolution. In xorg.conf http://rafb.net/p/OTK4kd61.html is just 1440x900 defined, but Xorg.0.log http://rafb.net/p/6X7dVx23.html says that edid and the data in xorg.conf is damn and 1024x768 is much prettier. I don't think so. How can I change this?
[19:25] <chronic1> anyonw here having trouble with flash not passing a MD5 check
[19:25] <RequinB4> Can anyone tell me how i can find the model of my laptop?  I looked in bios, I ask because i need to know if a given tutorial will work
[19:25] <badkitty> manny: hmmm and you tried to reconfigure x? Have you look at your settings in bios (aperature size etc..)
[19:25] <fr00d> Where else are resolution data saved?
[19:25] <Tilllinux> manny_: try installing displayconfig-gtk and change the resolution / drivers to use... but i don't know if that'd help
[19:26] <chronic1> RequinB4: is there not a sticker on the bottom of the computer?
[19:26] <h-town> hey guys, i formated my vista partition into an ext3 file structure, it's empty and whenever i try to access the partition it says I am not authorized to access it.. any suggestions?
[19:26] <chronic1> h-town: mount it with differen permissions
[19:26] <CaptainMorgan> how do I get flash player installed if it already attempted to install when I clicked on the "install this plugin" green icon... after a restart it hasn't configured and when I tried to reinstall it a popup with "already installed" shot up.. any ideas?
[19:26] <YaGonna> h-town, how are the permissions
[19:26] <h-town> would I do that from gparted
[19:26] <fluxy> h-town: chown it?
[19:26] <manny_> Tilllinux: i tried it, and it works for my monitor but as soon as i restart Xserver it goes back to low GFX mode
[19:27] <B0GDAN> There's one thing I need to ask and is not related to Ubuntu at all. I need to ask some US guy. The question is: where can I find a simple chat IRC server? Chat off-topic, not related to anything, just chat?
[19:27] <h-town> i'm not sure, i didnt worry about it when i formated it haha, i'm a very casual computer user
[19:27] <YaGonna> h-town, no you would do that froim /etc/fstab
[19:27] <manny_> badkitty: by reconfigure X you mean xorg.conf right?
[19:27] <badkitty> manny yah
[19:27] <h-town> what is /etc/fstab?
[19:27] <YaGonna> h-town, it's the file where all mountpoints are configured
[19:28] <manny_> badkitty: yeah i did dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[19:28] <YaGonna> h-town, how did you try to mount this partition?
[19:28] <ompaul> B0GDAN, chat in #ubuntu-offtopic  or freenode's #defocus
[19:28] <dom> hi all
[19:28] <B0GDAN> ¤ ForeverZero ¤ hi, question: r u from the US?
[19:28] <YaGonna> hi dom
[19:28] <B0GDAN> ompaul thx
[19:29] <RequinB4> chronic1 - it is faded
[19:29] <RequinB4> -.-
[19:29] <ompaul> !offtopic
[19:29] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[19:29] <dom> any ideas why GDM isn't showing any users in the chooser?
[19:29] <manny_> badkitty: is 7.10 an unstable release of ubuntu, i'm reading this other guide that is for "stable versions of ubuntu" and it doesnt include 7.10
[19:30] <badkitty> manny: No 7.10 is stable
[19:30] <drgeb> dom did u set it up in gdmsetup
[19:30] <ompaul> dom, system administration login wind - do it there
[19:30] <Flare183> Why do get this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49431/
[19:31] <Flare183> I do in fact have it installed
[19:31] <YaGonna> Flare183, try ./debhelper
[19:31] <chronic1> RequinB4: well....then you just have to look at the specs of your machine and match it to something on the website
[19:31] <Flare183> YaGonna: nope
[19:31] <B0GDAN> farewell
[19:31] <dom> drgeb, ompaul: i'm looking under the Users tab, and include all users from passwd is checked
[19:31] <manny_> badkitty: alright, i guess i've got nothing left than to try envy
[19:31] <il12> ok, another question: Are there any particular advantages/disadvantages of using Ubuntu over Kubuntu?
[19:31] <YaGonna> Flare183, is your $PATH including the path to the directory where debhelper is installed?
[19:32] <h-town> i'm sorry i had to answer the door
[19:32] <h-town> i unmounted it from gparted and then formated it to ext3
[19:32] <chronic1> RequinB4: my personal experience is that models within a specific class (3000 vs. 3000X) don't really make a difference on drivers
[19:32] <ompaul> dom, so have you restarted x since you did that>?
[19:32] <RequinB4> chronic1 - yeah, did that and it matches like 3 models... thanx anyway, i was just double checking something, the tut i was using should work but it doesn't and its bothering me
[19:32] <grout> anyone know where i can find a urban terror deb?
[19:32] <YaGonna> h-town, how did you try to access it in linux?

[20:00] <nickrud> NewBuntuUser007, those are broken as well
[20:00] <Shimfs> hi everyone, i got a little problem. I cant get my wireless to work, but thats not the main concern. The problem is, it wont even work with wired internet :S
[20:00] <dom> arnath: is that gdesklets?
[20:00] <NewBuntuUser007> oooOOoo  =(  that's a bummer!@ Gaaaahhh OK ty

[20:00] <arnath> dom: not a clue
[20:01] <arnath> dom: all i know is that instead of the original topmenu with 3 buttons, this guy seems to have the bottom menu which looks way neater :P
[20:01] <il12> ok. I have a question about Wine. I am trying to open an application through it but nothing shows up in my C:/ directory when I try to browse it in order to open something through WIne
[20:01] <ubuntux> hey, how do you get sound working in vmware workstation?
[20:01] <dom> arnath: well you might check out some of the gdesklets
[20:01] <NewBuntuUser007> OH luckily I read about it and i saw that installing the restricteds would install the flash
[20:02] <NewBuntuUser007> so i hesitated. ill check back. good lookin out tho thx 4 the heads up
[20:02] <badkitty> ubuntux: you have vmware working in ubuntu... did they fix their repos finally? I use virtualbox
[20:02] <arnath> dom: ok, but will the gdesklets also get rid of the original menu? :) or is that setting in ubuntu somewhere?
[20:02] <dom> arnath: if you're using gnome (standard w/ ubuntu), you can just delete the panel
[20:02] <arnath> dom: ah ok :)
[20:02] <ubuntux> badkitty, i duno, just installed it myself with the vmware installer
[20:02] <il12> am I going to have to go through the terminal window and the directories there? Wine already has notepad saved as under it's 'programs' folder.
[20:02] <Romes> something I don't understand about the linux FS
[20:03] <NewBuntuUser007> i was in her the other day. i should jus lurk sum. i'm having boxbox fun right now.
[20:03] <ubuntux> badkitty, without using vmware-any-any patches or whatever
[20:03] <Romes> if you mount something that already exists on a partition, what happens?
[20:03] <Romes> so let's say I try and mount a partition as /home
[20:03] <Shimfs> weird. I cant get my laptop to make the | symbol
[20:03] <Shimfs> quite annoying :S
[20:04] <chronic1> NewBuntuUser007: sorry about that...didn't mean for that to me a message
[20:04] <ubuntux> someone else using vmware workstation?
[20:04] <Shimfs> can anyone tell me how i get my WIRED internet connection to work :S i cant access the internet with the lan cable in :S
[20:04] <bulmer> Romes-> try and it and see the effect
[20:05] <Romes> bulmer: I would, but I don't have any extra partitions
[20:05] <bulmer> Shimfs-> can you tell us how your network layout is? whats connected to what?
[20:05] <Romes> plus it sounds dangerous :P
[20:05] <bulmer> Romes-> huh? what extra partitions?
[20:05] <Shimfs> bulmer, how exactly do i find that? is it the lspci command?
[20:05] <badkitty> Shimfs: what does ifconfig bring up
[20:05] <bulmer> Shimfs-> you have to explain what are the physical devices connected in between and such
[20:06] <Shimfs> badkitty, it says the command was now foudn
[20:06] <Romes> bulmer... don't I need another partition to mount it?
[20:06] <Shimfs> bulmer, i have my lan cable to my apple airport extreme and then to the internet
[20:06] <orgy`> hey, whats the easiest way to make video screen capture of compiz?
[20:06] <ubuntux> Shimfs, do /sbin/ifconfig
[20:06] <Shimfs> badkitty, the command was NOT found
[20:06] <ubuntux> Shimfs, and do /sbin/route -n
[20:06] <bulmer> Romes->you can mount a partition to another..no problemo
[20:06] <dom> drgeb, any ideas?
[20:07] <Shimfs> ubuntux, /sbin/ipconfig says the destination was not found
[20:07] <bulmer> Shimfs-> okay find out if you have an ip address assigned via ifconfig  or ip a
[20:07] <badkitty> Shimfs: ifconfig is not found huh.. thats a large indicator of your problem
[20:07] <ubuntux> Shimfs, its /sbin/ifconfig not ipconfig read
[20:07] <wols_> Shimfs: there is no ipconfig anywhere on ubuntu
[20:07] <Shimfs> ubuntux, and the route -n gets me a list like this: Destination, gateway, genmask, flags metric ref and use iface
[20:08] <ubuntux> Shimfs, what gateway do you see for route <IP_ADDRESS>
[20:08] <Shimfs> wols_, how am i then going to get access to the internet
[20:08] <Shimfs> ubuntux, none, the list is empty
[20:08] <wols_> Shimfs: by reading more carefully what people tell you
[20:08] <ubuntux> Shimfs, so your eth isnt configured
[20:08] <Shimfs> wols_, i do? and i try everything they suggest -.-
[20:08] <nickrud> Shimfs, you should put the output of    ifconfig     and     route -n     on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org so people can see them
[20:08] <wols_> Shimfs: as several people already told you you haven't
[20:08] <bulmer> Shimfs-> yes try what we suggest to you
[20:09] <DARKGuy> Hey, does anybody know how do I do for making Audacious/XMMS enqueue the new media they get instead of replacing the whole playlist? :/
[20:09] <Shimfs> wols_, bulmer i have tried everything you said. the /sbin/ipconfig, /sbin/route -n, ipconfig and so on
[20:09] <ubuntux> Shimfs, do you know what DHCP is, or some basic about network config?
[20:09] <nickrud> Shimfs, ifconfig   not IPCONFIG
[20:09] <bulmer> Shimfs-> read carefully  it is ifconfig  not ipconfig
[20:09] <wols_> Shimfs: iFconfig! for the fscking last time
[20:09] <wols_> Shimfs: and I didn't say anything
[20:09] <ubuntux> lol everytime said it now :)
[20:09] <Shimfs> ubuntux i know that it is the one that sets the ip up automaticly
[20:10] <ubuntux> Shimfs, yes, does your router or other network device supports that?
[20:10] <wols_> Shimfs: run /sbin/ifconfig -a
[20:10] <ubuntux> then do
[20:10] <ubuntux> Shimfs, sudo dhclient eth0
[20:10] <dom> anyone have any ideas why no users show up in my gdm chooser?
[20:10] <Shimfs> ifconfig says eth0 is the ethernet up broadcast. eth1 is also ethernet :S and lo is local loopback
[20:11] <sam_> hey can someone help me with getting java?
[20:11] <LjL> !java > sam_    (sam_, see the private message from Ubotu)
[20:11] <wols_> !java | sam_
[20:11] <ubotu> sam_: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[20:11] <wols_> sam_: do you run 64bit ubuntu?
[20:11] <sam_> nope 32bit cause its easier
[20:11] <Shimfs> ubuntux it says no DHCPOFFERS recieved
[20:11] <wols_> good
 i just need the synaptic manager to work
[20:11] <ubuntux> Shimfs, so or you dont patched eth0 to your network device, or your router doesnt support it (read has it enabled)
 but its been giving me this error
[20:12] <il12> Ok. On my system it tells me that a program is already running on my system, when I have never opened it before.
[20:12] <nickrud> il12, which one?
[20:12] <il12> nickrud: LastChaos
[20:12] <Shimfs> ubuntux, hmm, im not sure, but i think its connected with the fact that not even WIRED internet works for me :S
[20:12] <bulmer> Shimfs-> okay tell us what is the ip address assigned on eth0?  ifconfig will tell you
[20:12] <DARKGuy> Hey, does anybody know how do I do for making Audacious/XMMS enqueue the new media they get instead of replacing the whole playlist? :/
 are you there?
[20:12] <ub3r> .
[20:13] <ubuntux> Shimfs, because you dont have an ipadress and a route to a gateway, so of course your internet doesnt work
[20:13] <nickrud> il12, I've never heard of it
 are you there, i mean
[20:13] <LjL> !tab | sam_
[20:13] <ubotu> sam_: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[20:13] <il12> nickrude: it's an MMORPG by AeriaGames.
[20:13] <redd0t> eth01: interesting name choice
 well can you help me then?
[20:13] <Shimfs> ubuntux, eht0has no IP assigned. it only shows me the mac address. and then some packet and error stuff
[20:14] <LjL> sam_: perhaps if you tell us which error it is that you talked about.
[20:14] <eth01> hmmm?
[20:14] <eth01> i'm eth01 ;)
[20:14] <ubuntux> Shimfs, and if you put your cable in eth1 and do sudo dhclient eth1 ?
[20:14] <nickrud> il12, I've found it ..   you could try killall LastChaos  (if it's uppercase in ps -A)
 sure, my synaptic manager: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[20:14] <sam_> E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[20:14] <Shimfs> ubuntux, i will try that, brb in a minute (only got one cable -.-
[20:14] <ubuntux> k
[20:14] <LjL> sam_: open a terminal and type « sudo dpkg --configure -a ».
[20:15] <Morbiddog> hey ive got a qustion about booting to the live cd
[20:15] <il12> nickrud: it says 'LastChaos: no process killed'
[20:15] <LjL> il12: ps aux | grep -i chaos
[20:15] <Morbiddog> when i try to boot to the live cd i get a message telling me that it has to run in low graphics mode so i hit ok
[20:15] <Ximal> Ok ... I just converted a family member to Ubuntu ...
[20:15] <Morbiddog> and when i hit ok it simply doesnt do anything
[20:15] <nickrud> il12, and the case will matter
[20:15] <Drixx> when i increase the no. of colums or rows in compiz ... nothin happens ... it only switches b/w 2 windows .... what to do ??
[20:15] <Ximal> Is there a way guys ... Do download all the games and programs I have installed to a repository cd for him to use initially ?
[20:16] <SpookyET> Has anyone used unison instead of rsync?
[20:16] <il12> LjL: I feel dumb asking this but how do I need to make the straight vertical line?
 can we talk in #LjL?
[20:16] <LjL> il12: that depends on your keyboard layout. can't you just copy and paste?
[20:16] <Morbiddog> can anyone help me
[20:16] <il12> LjL: yes, I'm an idiot. -_- sorry! attempting now
[20:16] <LjL> sam_: if we talk here, other people may be able to help too. but if you like
[20:16] <ubuntu> alguem sab o brasileiro! br?
 oh ok
[20:17] <LjL> !br | ubuntu
[20:17] <ubotu> ubuntu: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português. Obrigado.
 when i did what you said this is what i got: This package is an installer package, it does not actually contain the
[20:17] <sam_> JDK documentation.  You will need to go download one of the

[20:17] <Drixx>  when i increase the no. of colums or rows in compiz ... nothin happens ... it only switches b/w 2 windows .... what to do ??
[20:17] <il12> LjL: the purpose of this was to show what the executable file is for LastChaos?
[20:17] <LjL> il12: it was to show if it was already running somewhere.
[20:17] <Drixx> neone there ??
[20:17] <Drixx>  when i increase the no. of colums or rows in compiz ... nothin happens ... it only switches b/w 2 windows .... what to do ??
[20:18] <Flare183> !repeat > Drixx
[20:18] <LjL> sam_, i'm sure you get more than just that... please place the whole thing into the pastebin
[20:18] <il12> LjL: alright...it gives me numbers and a directory.
[20:18] <Drixx>  when i increase the no. of colums or rows in compiz ... nothin happens ... it only switches b/w 2 windows .... what to do ??
[20:18] <LjL> il12: paste what it gives
 can you give me the pastebin link?
[20:18] <nickrud> Drixx, I set the rows to 1 , columns to whatever, works here
[20:18] <LjL> !pastebin> sam_
[20:18] <Drixx> Flare183: kk let me try
[20:19] <Shimfs_> ubuntux, found another LAN cable, and is doing the sudo dhclient eth1 right now
[20:19] <Drixx> Flare183: no luck ... rows set to one n columns to 4 .. but only two columns are there ...
[20:19] <Shimfs_> ubuntux, same result as with eth0

[20:20] <nickrud> Drixx, do you have compizconfig-settings-manager installed?
[20:20] <Drixx> nickrud: yes
[20:20] <RequinB4> 6177*
[20:20] <il12> LjL: thank you. And I apologize for not using the pastebin, I didn't know.
[20:21] <nickrud> Drixx, then go to general options, desktop tab, try changing your settings there
[20:21] <il12> LjL: it says I have to install Gecko.
[20:21] <Drixx> nickrud: kk
[20:21] <cosmodad> I just wanted to create a movemail account using Thunderbird <IP_ADDRESS>/Feisty, but apparently I have no such option in the account creation wizard. Can anyone else confirm this?
 I'm not sure how to use the pastebin, i pasted and submitted it but nothing happened
[20:21] <DARKGuy> Hey, does anybody know how do I do for making Audacious/XMMS enqueue the new media they get instead of replacing the whole playlist? :/
[20:22] <wols_> sam_: the url on top changes to one with a number. paste that url here
[20:22] <Shimfs_> what is the command to configure your network. it says that eth1 is not configured
[20:22] <cosmodad> DARKGuy: with xmms, I think you use -e.
[20:22] <Shimfs_> and neither is eth0
[20:22] <ubuntux> Shimfs_, okay, then probably your router doesnt provide dhcp address, then you have to configure it manually
[20:22] <ToddEDM> hey guys, i got a USB stick that i want to format... im using Gparted, but it has a lock on it... any suggestions?
 http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49437/
[20:22] <Flare183> Shimfs_: use ifconfig
[20:22] <ubuntux> with networkmanager, in the bottomright corner of the taskbar
[20:22] <cosmodad> DARKGuy: try -Q alternatively (xmms --help)
[20:22] <Shimfs_> ubuntux, okay
[20:23] <Drixx> nickrud: what to change there ??
[20:23] <Shimfs_> Flare183, and when i do that, i just get eth0 and then a macaddress and some other stuff (no IP) and the same with eth1 just another macaddress and lo
[20:23] <Drixx> nickrud: i tried rebooting ... but it does'nt help ...
[20:23] <nickrud> Drixx, horizontal Virtual size is what you would change
[20:23] <Flare183> Shimfs_: in the terminal type in man ifconfig
[20:23] <BL4VAL> can someone help install drivers to my ati radeon hd 2400?
[20:24] <il12> LjL: I let it install Gecko, it ran the program, it opens the update window and I click 'start' and it gives me the same errors.
[20:24] <Drixx> nickrud: it is set to 2 ...
[20:24] <Flare183> !ati > BL4VAL
[20:24] <nickrud> Drixx, change to 4
[20:24] <Shimfs_> Flare183, thank you
[20:24] <Drixx> nickrud: thnx dude ...
[20:24] <Flare183> no problem
[20:24] <sam_> can someone help now that I got the link from pastebin? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49437/
[20:25] <Drixx> nickrud: thank you .... :)
[20:25] <fiXXXerMet> Wondering if anyone here has installed Ubuntu on an IBM xseries 225?  I am trying to do so now and it is not detecting the raid controller/disks.  It uses a LSI53C1030 controller.
[20:26] <boo> hey
[20:26] <cosmodad> sam_: why don't you just install the sun-java6-doc package?
[20:26] <Flare183> sam_: download the file and then run gksudo (file manager name)
[20:26] <DARKGuy> thanks cosmodad :D
[20:26] <ToddEDM> could someone lend me a hand for a minute , im trying to format a USB stick, with Gparted, but i guess i dont have the proper permissions
 the problem started b/c i tried to install the sun-java6-doc package through synaptic manager
[20:26] <wols_> sam_: do what the helpful message says?
[20:26] <Flare183> sam_: then put the files in the /tmp folder and then right click them, click properties
[20:26] <cosmodad> sam_: what problem?
[20:27] <Flare183> sam_: then set the permissions
[20:27] <Flare183> ToddEDM: you can't do that
[20:27] <ToddEDM> do what
[20:27] <Drixx> nickrud: last time i installed awm after compiz ... n none of em worked ... can u suggest from where shud i install awm .. n shud i or not ...
[20:27] <Flare183> ToddEDM: gparted can't do that
[20:27] <sam_> ah wait ill just listen to Flare183 what he said first
[20:27] <ToddEDM> format a USB stick
[20:27] <ToddEDM> ?
[20:27] <Flare183> ok
[20:27] <Flare183> ToddEDM: yes
[20:27] <cosmodad> could anyone using Thunderbird under Feisty please confirm/deny that there is no movemail account available when creating a new account?
[20:27] <ToddEDM> hmmm.. what would do that then?
 ok what file do I download/where, and how do i run gksudo?
[20:27] <HardDisk> the easiest thing to do was to sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[20:28] <boo> I've been having some problems with my windows partition in ubuntu. I havent used windows in about 4 months, but i tried to boot it yesterday to play a game. but i got a BSOD before anything booted, so i tried fixboot and fixmbr in the winxp recovery console, then it said ntldr is missing.  i reinstalled grub, tried to mount the device and its not working. i've tried force mounting it and everything
[20:28] <HardDisk> that will install flash, java, codecs etc
[20:28] <Flare183> sam_: do what the message says to do download those files first
[20:28] <omegaweopon> Im getting an error with rosebud that says Rosegarden was unable to find a high resolution timing source for MIDI performance.  Im running 7.10, any ideas?
[20:28] <nickrud> Drixx , I'm not using awn, so no opinion on it
[20:28] <boo> fdisk shows the partition as ntfs, but the winxp boot cd shows it as fat16
[20:28] <handerek> anyone can help me to fix this? http://www.onlyfree.de/php/pasteservice/show.php?id=4986
[20:29] <ToddEDM> Flare183:  what program would format a USB stick?
[20:29] <HardDisk> boo, you have to boot from the windows XP cd, go into prompt then do Fdisk /mbr   IF it's a windows xp partition
 sorry but what message? do you mean the sun java thing?
[20:29] <boo> what does Fdisk /mbr do?
[20:29] <Flare183> !format > ToddEDM
[20:29] <HardDisk> fdisk /mbr is the proper way to fix your ntldr issue via xp cd
[20:29] <Flare183> sam_: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/webnotes/install/jdk/install-docs.html
[20:30] <cosmodad> could anyone using Thunderbird under *Gutsy* please confirm/deny that there is no movemail account available when creating a new account?
[20:30] <boo> will that screw up grub again?
[20:30] <Flare183> sam_: the message the one that you pasted into the pastebin
[20:30] <HardDisk> boo, it will, ONCE you do that, then you just add grub afterwards and use the mount point for xp
[20:30] <nickrud> boo, fdisk /mbr will screw up grub.
[20:31] <boo> alright,    could a screwed up mbr make the contents of the disk look random?
[20:31] <HardDisk> boo, no
[20:31] <gabbah> anyone using the latest nvidea driver with a geforce 8800 card? I just installed it and now the fan is running full blast constantly! :/  Anyone know a fix for that?
[20:31] <HardDisk> boo, that is a completely different problem altogether.
[20:31] <boo> what could cause that?
[20:31] <HardDisk> boo, in that case you have a fux0red partition table.
[20:32] <Flare183> sam_: and yes the java message thing
[20:32] <boo> it didn't look completely random, there were words in the filenames
[20:32] <boo> how would i fix that?
 sorry I seem to be a total noob at this, I don't understand the link you sent me
[20:32] <HardDisk> what could cause it, many things such as, electrical power outage, a faulty harddrive, partitioning and not completing it by restarting pc etc.
[20:32] <Flare183> sam_: here you need both of the files
[20:33] <HardDisk> boo, also running fsck while the drive is mounted.
[20:33] <boo> whats fsck?
[20:33] <Flare183> sam_: So i guess i'll do the hard part and just give you place you can just download those files
[20:33] <boo> i think i remember doing that a while back =/
[20:33] <HardDisk> boo, fsck is equivelant to chkdsk
[20:33] <Tezasaurus> hi, I'm having problems getting Flash movies to work correctly in Firefox under Gutsy
 sorry, just got ubuntu yesterday
[20:33] <boo> ah, file system check, ok
[20:33] <nickrud> !flash | Tezasaurus
[20:33] <ubotu> Tezasaurus: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[20:33] <ubotu> The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix.
[20:33] <HardDisk> boo, what I would do, is boot from a livecd, first check your data is intact, backup what you can then work on fixing your partition table.
[20:33] <Flare183> sam_: no problem just let me find where the files are at
[20:34] <Tezasaurus> thanks, nickrud
[20:34] <HardDisk> boo, if you have jumbled files and folders, fixing it may create more data loss
[20:34] <boo> how could i check that its not corrupted from a live cd?
[20:34] <rainwalker> how to I access my hard drive using the live cd?
[20:34] <amerio> i have a problem with my mouse .. its working but multimedia buttons arent working .. any idea?
[20:34] <HardDisk> boo, fsck
[20:34] <Shimfs_> what to do if ifconfig eth1 reveals that i have no ipaddress whatsoever. only a inet6 address
[20:34] <boo> oh
[20:35] <Flare183> sam_: https://sdlc6d.sun.com/ECom/EComActionServlet;jsessionid=8A17F2BCED2403AC6B56C88479620F5A#
[20:35] <boo> hmm
[20:35] <boo> alright, im going to boot from a livecd
[20:35] <boo> ill be back
[20:35] <HardDisk> boo, OR if you are new to linux
[20:35] <HardDisk> boo, I would use something like Hiren's boot cd
 I downloaded it to my desktop
[20:36] <boo> instead of booting from the livecd?
[20:36] <HardDisk> it has tools to help you fix these things
[20:36] <Tezasaurus> should I go with the official version of Flash or a free alternative?
[20:36] <Flare183> sam_: which one?
[20:36] <HardDisk> first boot from the livecd and check first.
[20:36] <sam_> well there was only jdk6doc
[20:36] <nickrud> Tezasaurus, the free alternative is still a work in progress, won't play newer flash formats
[20:36] <HardDisk> Tezasaurus, the opensource one sucks to be quite honest.
[20:36] <nickrud> sucks is a harse term
 well there was only jdk6doc, the other one was japanese
[20:37] <boo> so fsck when i get into the livecd,  any arguments?
[20:37] <Flare183> sam_: ok
[20:37] <HardDisk> the truth can be harsh sometimes.
[20:37] <HardDisk> boo is it ntfs or fat?
[20:37] <Flare183> sam_: already done downloading it
[20:37] <Flare183> ?
[20:37] <Tezasaurus> should I just install "flashplugin-nonfree" then? There doesn't seem to be specific instructions for Gutsy on this page
[20:37] <boo> ntfs
[20:37] <Flare183> me says sorry for the enter
[20:37]  * Flare183 says sorry for the enter
[20:37] <HardDisk> Tezasaurus, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[20:37] <HardDisk> boo, in that case forget about fsck, go with the hiren boot cd as I mentioned.
[20:37] <Dr_willis> is the flash installer still broken?
[20:38] <nickrud> Tezasaurus, yes, it has a link to a working package there, the ubuntu-restricted-extras has a broken installer
[20:38] <Flare183> Dr_willis: yep
[20:38] <Dr_willis> Flare183,  egads. :)
 What should I do next?
[20:38] <Flare183> Dr_willis: yeah i know
[20:38] <boo> alright
[20:38] <Tezasaurus> nickrud: okay, that's what I thought, because I did the restricted-extras and it's been wonky
