[02:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about runlevel - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:48] <nickrud> thresher, I've given you the command to install that like 4 times now
[02:48] <jimmygoon> Edwardxp, and you want it to auto refresh or somethign?
[02:48] <alexvd> IndyGunFreak: I dont know why i am having this issue.   As soon as the Gutsy upgrade is complete.
[02:49] <jimbo1> bulmer, I have a harddrive that ntsf and when i try to mount it it says that it was hybernated by windows and that i have to shutdown windows properly and to access it but i no longer have windows on my desktop so this is impossible
[02:49] <Invert314> brb
[02:49] <jimbo1> bulmer, is there anyway i can force it to mount
[02:49] <thresher> emeral not found
[02:49] <nickrud> thresher, <nickrud> thresher, then    sudo aptitude install  compizconfig-settings-manager xserver-xgl  emerald     <-- copy and paste that into the terminal <-- that errored out?
[02:50] <Shpook> PulseAudio looks and sounds promising...let's see if it holds up.
[02:50] <jimmygoon> Edwardxp, it may be that that particulr software doesn't support that
[02:50] <Pelo> thresher, sudo apt-get install emerald , exit synaptic first
[02:50] <jimmygoon> Edwardxp, and java has nothing to do with it
[02:50] <scragar> with the desktop effects how do I make the expo effect(shows all your desktops at once by zooming out) accept single clicks to change desktops instead of double
[02:50] <jimmygoon> !ccsm | scragar
[02:50] <ubotu> scragar: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), install 'compizconfig-settings-manager'. A new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion
[02:50] <Pelo> scragar, ask in #compiz
[02:50] <crdlb> scragar: you cannot
[02:50] <thresher> i reran nickrud command in terminal it is working now after synaptics install
[02:50] <jimmygoon> scragar, you will have to do that and configure it manually
[02:51] <crdlb> why would you want that?
[02:51] <bulmer> jimbo, i am not aware of such thing as hibernated hd..try mount -t ntfs /dev/hdc1  assuming its hdc1 is the ntfs partition
[02:51] <thresher> Pelo: i installed emerald within synaptics so it seems to be working for me now
[02:51] <jimmygoon> scragar, actually, sorry, crdlb is right... I checked ... you can't even make it do it that way
[02:51] <Pelo> thresher, congradulations
[02:51] <crdlb> scragar: well you can set "Double click time" to an extremely small amount in CCSM
[02:51] <Yancho> is there a way i can check how a network printer is being called?
[02:51] <crdlb> which would prevent you from ever triggering a double click
[02:51] <scragar> ok, thanks for the trying guys
[02:52] <alexvd> IndyGunFreak: So I noticed that when I unselect expand my desktop items shift over to the right into the other screen.  Wierd
[02:52] <bulmer> jimbo, i missed the mount point... mount -t ntfs /dev/hdc1 /mnt
[02:52]  * Pelo watches half the questions go rigth over his head
[02:52] <Invert314> Odd-rationale, didn't work
[02:53]  * nickrud thinks Pelo is verrry short then ;P
[02:53] <Odd-rationale> Invert314: Have you tried reinstalling fluxbox?
[02:53] <Edwardxp> webcam-server -c "Edward is Awesome" -g 640x480;   this is really cool
[02:53] <Invert314> Odd-rationale, how do i do that?
[02:53] <Edwardxp> http://<IP_ADDRESS>:8888/
[02:53] <thresher> so i logged out and back in, I received a messgae indicating my xgl had changed nickrud pelo crdlb
[02:53]  * Pelo hopes a hard questions goes right over his head and hits nickrud
[02:53] <IndyGunFreak> alexvd: i have no logical explanation for that, it works fine for me..
[02:53] <Odd-rationale> Invert314: Synaptic is one way...
[02:53] <Pelo> thresher, congrats
[02:53] <thresher> So I still cant tell if i have the pretty windows
[02:53] <sleepster> when is Ubuntu 8 coming out?
[02:53] <nickrud> Pelo, the scar tissue is so deep I can't feel them anymore
[02:53] <sleepster> the official release
[02:54] <thresher> should i now go play with my advanced seettings and kick it up a notch?
[02:54] <Odd-rationale> !hardy | sleepster
[02:54] <ubotu> sleepster: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[02:54] <jimmygoon> sleepster, the numbers are based off of YEAR-MONTH
[02:54] <Pelo> thresher, now go in menu > sys > prefs > appearance,  and turn on the advance effects
[02:54] <jimmygoon> so 08.04 is April 2008 just like every year :)
[02:54] <Ziimp> naaaacht :P
[02:54] <jimbo1> bulmer, i did that and i get the message "The NTFS partition is hibernated. Please resume and shutdown Windows propery, so mounting could be done safely."
[02:54] <Odd-rationale> Invert314: You can search for fluxbox in synaptic. Then mark for reinstalll
[02:54] <jimmygoon> ooh ooh! another  LTS... I forgot!
[02:54] <Invert314> Odd-rationale, good idea
[02:54] <Invert314> i'll try that now
[02:55] <jimmygoon> speaking of which, how is the artwork going for that
[02:55] <Pelo> jimmygoon, it is hidious
[02:55] <Odd-rationale> Invert314: I hope that work! I have go now. See ya1
[02:55] <bulmer> jimbo1, i have not done ntfs stuff with linux..so am not able to suggest anything
[02:55] <alexvd> IndyGunFreak: I have another question that could be related.  At one point I was trying to mess with Xorg settings and I put an option in that specified a memory size.  It caused a really wierd situation that when i enabled compiz it then gave me a black bar across the right half of my screen. I cannot figure out how to get rid of that.  I would assume to rerun xorg setup but I am not sure.  I did edit that out of Xorg but it n
[02:55] <alexvd> ever got rid of it.
[02:55] <Invert314> thanks Odd-rationale
[02:55] <Invert314> later
[02:55] <jimmygoon> Pelo, nooo don't say that :( I'm all excited for that
[02:55] <thresher> pelo: desktop effects could not be enabled
[02:56] <spooge> hi...um...i have a dumb question
[02:56] <spooge> how do i get to the GUI?
[02:56] <spooge> i think ubuntu is rnning on vmware
[02:56] <Pelo> thresher, maybe you should ask in #compiz-fusion,  they will be able to get all the stuff storted out
[02:56] <spooge> on my mac
[02:56] <IndyGunFreak> alexvd: not really sure, i've honestly never had a prob w/ Dual screens.., so i couldn't really tell you, reconfiguring would probably work.  here's a pic of my desktop w/ the taskbars autohid.. youc an barely see them at the top on each "side"..
[02:57] <Pelo> spooge, gui should get loaded on startup
[02:57] <jimmygoon> Pelo, is this official? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Hardy/Alternate/BasicIdeals?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=fulldesk%28svg%29_v3_3.jpg
[02:57] <Odd-rationale> Invert314: A good place to get help with fluxbox is: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=371144 RedSquirrel is an expert at fluxbox.
[02:57] <newbie> whenever i check in system monitor, i always find that less than 120MB of my 185.5MB is being used. Why is this and there any way of increasing the amount of real memory being used rather than swap memory?
[02:57] <spooge> oh
[02:57] <alexvd> IndyGunFreak: something funky with any new panel I add.  I can autohide the top and uncheck expand with no issues.
[02:57] <Invert314> ok ty ty Odd-rationale
[02:57] <spooge> well, then it is broken
[02:57] <spooge> dam
[02:57] <Odd-rationale> bye!
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> hmm, wierd... http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j263/IndyGunFreak/autohide.jpg
[02:57] <jimbo1> bulmer, ok thanks quick question how do i get to the universe app
[02:57] <Shpook> jimmygoon: that nice in an ugly way...I don't know what to think
[02:57] <Pelo> jimmygoon,  I don'T know about official but that is pretty much the last thing I've seen,  it is niceish but I don't like it for a default nor for enticing new users
[02:57] <bulmer> jimbo1, what is the universe app?
[02:58] <alexvd> IndyGunFreak:  what is the command for reconfiguring xorg sudo dpgkg reconfigure????
[02:58] <Pelo> jimmygoon, personnaly I think default themes should be light and inviting
[02:58] <UBUNTUISLOVED> does anyone know how to connect to PDANet software?
[02:58] <IndyGunFreak> alexvd: pretty sure...
[02:58] <jimmygoon> Pello, Shpook, well, lets just say, its a good thing that I've gotten good at customizing ubuntu to stave away the default look.
[02:58] <IndyGunFreak> alexvd: hang on i'll look for sure
[02:58] <Shpook> Pelo: there's no contrast...that would scare me away...
[02:58] <jimmygoon> Pelo, agreed. the visual appeal really is a big draw
[02:58] <jimbo1> bulmer, i found, the add remove program thing is what im talking about
[02:59] <Shpook> jimmygoon: lol
[02:59] <IndyGunFreak> alexvd: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:59] <Pelo> Shpook, a very good point,  I'm not saying they should use the default gnome theme but his does have advantages
[02:59] <jimbo1> bulmer, thanks again i am going to go unencrypted for now and play : )
[02:59] <bulmer> jimbo1, good luck
[02:59] <zero88> Wow, where would I go to talk about C++ if that channel does't even exist?
[02:59] <alexvd> IndyGunFreak: thanks
[03:00] <Pelo> zero88, I beleive it does
[03:00] <nickrud> zero88, #c++ does exist
[03:00] <jimmygoon> Pelo, well, I'm saying they should :) ... can you tell I'm not a fan of "human"
[03:00] <zero88> Ah! forgot the # part, thanks guys
[03:00] <thresher> I am a pretty efficient Windows user with a plethora of experience within the registry.  I have found that Ubuntu perhaps offers some more stability but I am interested to see how 'easy' it really is to setup a dual monitor setup with full effects and 3d on gutsy.
[03:00] <jimmygoon> Pelo, the green really helps things :D https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Hardy/Alternate/BasicIdeals?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=mockup%28svg%29_v2_2_shift.jpg
[03:00] <Pelo> jimmygoon, I use a lightly modified clearlook with gnome icons
[03:01] <Onyx> thresher: I've been using Ubuntu for all of 10 hours.
[03:01] <thresher> Nice Onyx
[03:01] <jimmygoon> Pelo, tango icons... sometimes Gion
[03:01]  * IndyGunFreak didn't know Ubuntu had a theme other than the OSX them.. ;)
[03:01] <thresher> Do you have 3d running on ati ?  onyx
[03:01] <Onyx> thresher: Easiest system I've ever set up and use
[03:01] <Onyx> thresher: 3D on Nvidia
[03:01] <thresher> for me by far not the easiest
[03:01] <Pelo> jimmygoon, I saw this on gnome-look the other day and I thought it was so freindly http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/DelvienGANT?content=72321
[03:01] <Shpook> Pelo, jimmygoon: I use a custom white on black theme, with Crystal Icons
[03:01] <thresher> onyx mostly due to ati i am guessing
[03:02] <|juan|> anybody know why X would crash and restart at login when running "compiz --replace"
[03:02] <thresher> onyx thats part of what i am being critical about though
[03:02] <brk3> I was (stupidly) removing some packages today and have somehow deleted my sound device. Is there anyway of getting a list of what packages were recently removed?
[03:02] <Shpook> MUST have contrast lol
[03:02] <Onyx> thresher: Ahhh, I know that in the past on Linux ATI drivers have been a huge pain.
[03:02] <jimmygoon> Shpook, I always like the looks of those themes, but find them hard to adjust to for day to day use
[03:02] <tanath> miro keeps crashing when loading. here's output: ( http://pastebin.com/d49025c1a ) can anyone help?
[03:02] <|juan|> also, if i do visual effects in appearance, it crashes
[03:02] <Varanger> hi
[03:02] <Pelo> Shpook, I'm not overly found of crystal , but they have their charm
[03:02] <jimmygoon> Pelo, yeah, I just get annoyed when I pull up my menus and there is an icon that is "wrong"... like mismatched because the icon pack didn't have an icon for it :/
[03:02] <Varanger> Does anyone know if there is any problems between compiz and xv ??
[03:03] <thresher> this was not bad onyx, the users are great but it has been roughly a half day and I dont really see how this is that much easier...someone will want to whip me....
[03:03] <hanasakiRemote> does gutsy support the  Atheros   L1 ethernet?
[03:03] <jimmygoon> and for that matter, overly compressed JPEGs annoy me as well
[03:03] <Shpook> Pelo, jimmygoon: I try to keep it as clean and clear as possible. And simple of course. I used to do the whole Compiz and AWN thing, but it was too much and too unstable.
[03:04] <Pelo> Shpook, I like clean as well
[03:04] <jimmygoon> Shpook, same here
[03:04] <tanath> |juan|, you check .xsession-errors?
[03:04] <Onyx> thresher: What's your goal?  To have a dual monitor setup that runs 3D?
[03:04] <jimmygoon> the closest I get to ... over board is a blended emerald & gtk theme
[03:04] <Pelo> jimmygoon, the problem I have with tango is that I dont, care for the blue folders, I like manila
[03:04] <Robbie_Crash> I'm looking for a text based screen saver, like something that will open a terminal and then run random important looking text across it, is there anything?
[03:04] <nickrud> now that fglrx does suspend, I've got compiz running regularly, but very light effects.
[03:04] <jimmygoon> Pelo, yeah
[03:05] <Onyx> Robbie_Crash: Cool idea :P
[03:05] <nickrud> Pelo, have you tried the gion icon theme?
[03:05] <Pelo> nickrud, donT think so , got a link ?
[03:05] <nickrud> lovely manila folders
[03:05] <Robbie_Crash> Like something you'd see in an extremely off base computer movie
[03:05] <jimmygoon> nickrud, :) I love gion
[03:05] <Robbie_Crash> Onyx thanks
[03:05] <Cereal> Hi =) I've got a problem with my External HDD (Lacie) right now it's formatted as NTFS. I want it to be Ext3. But I don't have write access to it on Linux (I do on windows) How do I change the access to it? And How do I format it to Ext3? Thanks :D

[03:06] <thresher> nickrud:  what is gion
[03:06] <nickrud> jimmygoon, yeah, I changed the tango folders to a light brown (get the manila look) but gion beats it hands down
[03:06] <Robbie_Crash> Sorry about sending that private first
[03:06] <Cereal> Thanks everyone :D
[03:06] <MrPiracy> anyone could help me with intel videocard?
[03:07] <nickrud> thresher, it's an icon theme that replaces the folder icons, and some of the other ones as weel

[03:07] <thresher> nickrud:  how do i enable it
[03:07] <jimmygoon> this is ideal for me... its clean, bright inviting, simple not over the top... the only problem for "new users" would be the lack of context for minimize/close/etc http://i12.tinypic.com/6xs1c8x.png

[03:07] <Pelo> thresher, did you try just plugging your scanner in and seeing what xane comes up with ?
[03:08] <nickrud> thresher, download it from the link above, open system->prefs->appearance, and drag the file you downloaded onto the window
[03:08] <Pelo> Robbie_Crash, we are not offtopic
[03:08]  * jimmygoon smirks at my connection to xbins
[03:08] <thresher> onyx yes dual monitor with 3d
[03:08] <Cereal> Robbie_Crash: What does it do? I mean !ntfs? Where do I write it?

[03:09] <nickrud> Pelo, can I borrow your time machine?

[03:10] <tanath> MrPiracy, press ctrl+s, choose your server. click edit... and edit the channels to join
[03:10] <Onyx> thresher: I'm assuming you already installed the ATI drivers?
[03:10] <tanath> gah, beat to it
[03:10] <Robbie_Crash> and there was nobody there so I was asking
[03:10] <Pelo> nickrud, sorry gnome 2.18
[03:10] <thresher> onyx, im up to path on all that so far
[03:10] <thresher> Onyx: i am going to plug in my second monitor and see if all goes to hell as it did earlier
[03:11] <Onyx> thresher: Let us know... and if it does, let us know what it said as it went to hell :)
[03:11] <jimmygoon> thresher, good luck
[03:11] <MrPiracy> Pelo: comma separated?
[03:11] <Pelo> MrPiracy, I beleive so, it should say so in the tool tip
[03:11] <MrPiracy> Pelo: thx
[03:12] <thresher> hmm maybe the radeon 9800 pro is not enough horsepower to handle these effects, opening firefox creates a yellow expansion box and a slow down
[03:12]  * Pelo just feels the luv
[03:12] <Pelo> thresher, could be, how much video memory do you have ?
[03:12] <thresher> 256
[03:12] <thresher> it may be 128
[03:12] <Pelo> thresher, megs ?
[03:12] <Pelo> that should be more then enought
[03:12] <ader10> Suggestion: There should be a subroot directory similar to windows (don't flame me for saying the W word). Imagine: cd /../windows or cd /../usbdrive.
[03:12] <ader10> There are several advantages to that, one way would be that you could measure how much disk space on a certain partition is used up. (It's frustrating trying to figure out how much linux space I have left when my windows partition is mounted under /media/windows
[03:13] <Pelo> thresher,  did yo ask the lovely ppl in #compiz-fusion to give you a hand on this ?
[03:13] <thresher> whjat is gl desktop
[03:13] <jimmygoon> ader10, what do you mean "subroot" ?
[03:13] <ader10> jimmygoon: there's the "root" directory "/"
[03:13] <thresher> Pelo: i dont really know what to ask
[03:13] <Robbie_Crash> and ader10 why not do df?
[03:13] <Pelo> ader10, menu > ystem> admin > system monitor , last tab
[03:14] <jimmygoon> ader10, just type "df" in the terminal... and then it tells you the breakdown of your partitions
[03:14] <tanath> ader10, you can already see how much space is used per partition.
[03:14] <jimmygoon> haha answer-assault
[03:14] <tanath> if you use df, use df -h for human readable
[03:14] <ader10> You're all missing the point :P
[03:14] <thresher> 181 users and no one is talkin pelo
[03:14] <Robbie_Crash> what point?
[03:14] <jimmygoon> or Applications->Accessories->Disk Usage Analyzer
[03:14] <Robbie_Crash> you want to see how much disk space there is
[03:14] <Cereal> Okay, So I've installed Gparted (trying to format my External HDD) but the drives on it seems to be locked O.o How do I "unlock" it?
[03:14] <Robbie_Crash> do df
[03:14] <Pelo> thresher,  I think you just need to say what card you have and that you are having trouble getting effects to work properly,  you can then review your driver situtation with them and the xgl stuff as well
[03:14] <jimmygoon> OR you can go to "Computer" and right click on the Windows drive icon and goto Properties
[03:14] <ader10> Way to shoot down a suggestion in a matter of seconds, I'm just saying one of the few reasons
[03:14] <Robbie_Crash> or umount /media/windows and then check your disk usage through whatever gui you use
[03:14] <|juan|> frkn compiz :(
[03:15] <Pelo> thresher, and not all channel are as busy as this one
[03:15] <|juan|> the youtube video looked so awesome :(
[03:15] <tanath> or subtract the space used in /media/windows from the total
[03:15] <Phil2> Hello; how do I download an application (wifi-radar) and it's dependencies from one computer and put it onto another computer (that doesn't have networking)
[03:15] <Pelo> thresher, I what problems did you have with the restrictred driver ?
[03:15] <Cereal> Okay, So I've installed Gparted (trying to format my External HDD) but the drives on it seems to be locked O.o How do I "unlock" it?
[03:15] <jimmygoon> ader10, the benefits of mounting drives as directories far outweigh the opposite, heck you can even do it in windows even you dig deep enough (in the mmc)
[03:15] <dahitokiri> |juan|, link to youtube vid?
[03:15] <RoshanK> !sound
[03:15] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). 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
[03:15] <Robbie_Crash> ader10 how can you get below root? root root?
[03:15] <jimmygoon> |juan|, whats not working?

[03:17] <|juan|> jimmygoon: when i goto system >> preferences >> appearance >> visual effects and click any of the options besides 'None' my X restarts
[03:17] <Cereal> Pelo: Will I be able to format it then?
[03:17] <jimmygoon> ader10, lol, we gave like 8 reasons why its better... and there are still the SAME ways of checking freespace
[03:17] <Pelo> Cereal, you should
[03:17] <|juan|> jimmygoon: and dumps me at login
[03:17] <Pelo> Cereal,  you'll need to create partitons and format those
[03:17] <ader10> jimmygoon: I only saw one reason and I don't remember it.
[03:17] <jimmygoon> |juan|, graphics card?
[03:17] <Robbie_Crash> ader10 what do you mean by sub root?
[03:17] <|juan|> jimmygoon: nvidia geforce 6600gt
[03:17] <Robbie_Crash> like C: ?
[03:17] <Cereal> Pelo: Like unmount. Then mount it again? Right now there are to NTFS partitions on it. How do I delete them?
[03:17] <Pelo> Cereal, well basicaly , creating a partiton will ask for a format
[03:17] <nickrud> ader10, we're parrotting, true. But parrotting 30+ years of experience. Not fanboyism, I would think
[03:18] <Cereal> Pelo: So in Gparted I should unmount both of them or what?
[03:18] <ader10> Funny how instead of asking me why I think that you tell me how to check the free space left in my linux partition. I wasn't asking how to do that.
[03:18] <jimmygoon> ader10, 1: you can still do it, 4 different ways .... one, terminal->"df" two, Applications->Accessories->Disk Usage Analyzer three, gnome-taskmanager rip off thing, four, goto "Computer" right click on the drive and do it just like you would in windows, plus all of the benefits of having drives mounted in folders
[03:18] <Pelo> Cereal, got gparted opened ? , select the drive,  select the partiton,  right ciick unmount, right click delete,
[03:18] <ader10> jimmygoon: See what I just said
[03:18] <|juan|> jimmygoon: all the nvidia stuff is installed and i have both monitors setup with independent resolutions
[03:18] <Cereal> Pelo: Thanks a lot :D It worked ^ ^
[03:18] <bazhang> ader10: please join #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:19] <sleepster> if Ghandi needed an OS... would he choose Ubuntu?
[03:19] <ader10> bazhang: It's not an offtopic subject, it directly relates to linux.
[03:19] <Pelo> Cereal, of course it worked, did you thinK I would give you bad advice ?
[03:19] <jimmygoon> |juan|, oh, are you sure that xorg is using hte driver you installed? sorry I've not got much experience with the nitty gritty drive nonsense
[03:19] <|juan|> jimmygoon: Restricted Drivers - NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver(latest cards) Enabled In Use
[03:19] <nickrud> sleepster, nah, slackware. He was into bare essentials
[03:19] <jimmygoon> |juan|, huh, see, I didn't even know you could get it to report that... where did it spit that out?
[03:19] <bazhang> ader10: this is not a chitchat channel--you are not asking for support; ergo, offtopic
[03:19] <archie1> how do i switch to root mode?
[03:19] <archie1> sudo -s?
[03:19] <jimmygoon> |juan|, I would suggest trying to pick through any of the xorg logs.
[03:20] <julien> sudo -i
[03:20] <koi> can anyone help me with installing beryl/  i have an intel 915....also broken shift keys
[03:20] <archie1> thanks
[03:20]  * nickrud has been ot enough for a week, quits
[03:20] <Cereal> Pelo: No of course not :) Here :D Have a cookie ^ ^ *hands over a cookie* ^ ^
[03:20] <Pelo> archie1,  just prefix your command with sudo
[03:20] <|juan|> jimmygoon: system >> administration >> restricted drivers
[03:20] <infinitycircuit> koi, i have compiz fusion running fine on an intel 915 what is your issue
[03:20] <Z1gfr0id3> ;D
[03:20] <Pelo> nickrud, aww chucks
[03:20] <koi> well
[03:20] <fwaokda_> anyone here use a kindle or sony reader?
[03:20] <jimmygoon> koi, are you /sure/ you want beryl and not just compiz-fusion?
[03:20] <archie1> Pelo: not if i am installing an entire distro using bash!
[03:20] <Arrick> hey all
[03:20] <NewPiracy> how can i check my kernel version?
[03:20] <koi> when i installed the compiz-settings manager
[03:20] <infinitycircuit> Nephlite, uname -a
[03:20] <koi> the wobbly effect stopped working
[03:20] <infinitycircuit> NewPiracy, uname -a
[03:20] <jimmygoon> NewPiracy, uname -a
[03:20] <Pelo> NewPiracy, in the terminal  uname -r
[03:20] <Arrick> what is the name for the 6.06.1 distro?
[03:20] <koi> and the settings manager didn't do anything
[03:20] <jimmygoon> ha
[03:20] <bazhang> uname -r NewPiracy
[03:20] <jimmygoon> Arrick, Dapper
[03:21] <crdlb> !dapper | Arrick

[03:21] <|juan|> jimmygoon: where's xorg.log?
[03:21] <jimmygoon> |juan|, dunna

[03:21] <Edwardxp> whats' gusty, draper'
[03:21] <Arrick> thanks, I just needed the name
[03:21] <Pelo> later folks
[03:21] <tanath> miro keeps crashing when loading. can anyone help? here's the output: http://pastebin.com/d49025c1a
[03:21] <Arrick> want to look at the right packages
[03:21] <Phil2> Hello; how do I download an application (wifi-radar) and it's dependencies from one computer and put it onto another computer (that doesn't have networking)
[03:21] <infinitycircuit> koi, are other 3d effects working
[03:21] <jimmygoon> Edwardxp, those are different version of ubuntu
[03:21] <NewPiracy> what's the latest? mine is 2.6.22-14-generic
[03:21] <Edwardxp> why
[03:21] <Edwardxp> soo many
[03:21] <infinitycircuit> NewPiracy, that is the kernel in gutsy
[03:22] <koi> only thing that works is minimize effect
[03:22] <jimmygoon> Edwardxp, new version every 6 months
[03:22] <bazhang> NewPiracy: you are up to date
[03:22] <Edwardxp> why
[03:22] <infinitycircuit> NewPiracy, hardy has 2.6.24-2-generic
[03:22] <jimmygoon> tanath, sorry, I looked and I've never seen it do that :/
[03:22] <NewPiracy> hmmm, i c ... i guess it has a bug with intel onboard videocards
[03:22] <Edwardxp> is my 7.10 outdated?
[03:22] <tanath> Edwardxp, there's a release every 6 months. the last names have been 'dapper', 'edgy', and now 'gutsy'
[03:22] <koi> the normal stuff was working before i installed the settings manager
[03:22] <crdlb> tanath: you forgot feisty :p
[03:22] <infinitycircuit> Edwardxp, feisty in between edgy and gutsy
[03:22] <tanath> jimmygoon, :( i can't get it working anymore
[03:22] <|juan|> why would X just crash/restart at the launch of visual effects?
[03:22] <tanath> crdlb, oops, i did :/
[03:22] <Edwardxp> how do i know which one i have?
[03:23] <|juan|> 3d rendering is on
[03:23] <|juan|> videos look awesome
[03:23] <NewPiracy> infinitycircuit: hardy?
[03:23] <jimmygoon> tanath, did something in particular, that you noticed, trigger it to not work anymore?
[03:23] <scguy318> Edwardxp: lsb_release -a
[03:23] <infinitycircuit> NewPiracy, Hardy Heron the development release of ubuntu
[03:23] <tanath> jimmygoon, prolly upgrading to gutsy
[03:23] <nickrud> Phil2, take a look at apt-zip , you can get an app and it's dependencies with that
[03:23] <jimmygoon> |juan| compiz(-fusion) is trying to do something and crashes X.org maybe?
[03:23] <tanath> jimmygoon, been a while since i've used it, but i think that's what did it
[03:23] <Edwardxp> i have gusty
[03:23] <NewPiracy> infinitycircuit: oh, i c ... i hope it will add full support for intel cards
[03:23] <jimmygoon> tanath, oh, yeah...
[03:23] <Phil2> nickrud: thanks
[03:23] <Varanger> |juan|: I have problems with visual effects and xv. I have transparent problems watching videos
[03:23] <Z1gfr0id3> what installing for ubuntu not rpm?
[03:23] <Arrick> !screen
[03:23] <ubotu> screen is a terminal multiplexer. See http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen
[03:23] <infinitycircuit> NewPiracy, unless you have an intel 965 full support is already in gutsy
[03:24] <tanath> jimmygoon, i tried reinstalling java & python. no go
[03:24] <jimmygoon> tanath, I still don't know what to tell you outside of purging python and miro off your system and reinstalling both ...
[03:24] <NewPiracy> mine is intel 946gz
[03:24] <jimmygoon> tanath, heh, oh
[03:24] <tanath> jimmygoon, didn't purge miro though...
[03:24] <nickrud> !deb | Z1gfr0id3
[03:24] <ubotu> Z1gfr0id3: deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click (in Ubuntu) or click (in Kubuntu) on them to start the GDebi utility.
[03:24] <NewPiracy> infinitycircuit: i cant get direct rendering and i believe 3d accel isnt enabled either
[03:24] <robdig> Z1gfr0id3: apt-get       it uses .deb
[03:24] <jimmygoon> tanath, well, you shouldn't realy have to
[03:24] <jimmygoon> tanath, but, I would update your repos and see if there is one for gutsy (if you didn't already)
[03:24] <Z1gfr0id3> ;****
[03:24] <NewPiracy> infinitycircuit: using driver i810
[03:24] <tanath> jimmygoon, shouldn't be crashing either :P
[03:25] <nickrud> !synaptic | Z1gfr0id3
[03:25] <ubotu> Z1gfr0id3: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[03:25] <Z1gfr0id3> thankss all repondding..
[03:25] <infinitycircuit> NewPiracy, what if you use the i915 driver
[03:25] <jimmygoon> tanath, just in case there is a difference between the feisty and the gutsy versions...
[03:25] <Shpook> tanath: is it miro that's not working?
[03:25] <tanath> jimmygoon, er, it's from the gutsy repo
[03:25] <jimmygoon> tanath, or not... ha
[03:25] <tanath> jimmygoon, it was installed originally as democracyplayer :P
[03:25] <tanath> Shpook, yep
[03:25] <jimmygoon> tanath, hm, I dunna then...
[03:25] <NewPiracy> infinitycircuit: hmmm, just switch driver name at xorg.conf?
[03:25] <infinitycircuit> NewPiracy, use the generic name "intel" in xorg.conf and it should use i915
[03:25] <rhayabusa22> hey where's the cream filling
[03:25] <Arrick> ok, whats the package name for screen now?
[03:26] <jimmygoon> tanath, see, I've had that installed before, but I manage to reinstall every 3-5 months due to hard drive failure, dropping my laptop, or a new version of ubuntu coming out... :P
[03:26] <sleepster> can ubuntu mount NTFS partitions
[03:26] <koi> yeah when i click to open the compiz settings manager nothing happens and the effects stopped working first time i tried
[03:26] <NewPiracy> infinitycircuit: i tried intel before, didn't work
[03:26] <nickrud> Arrick, screen
[03:26] <Shpook> tanath: it didn't work for me when I recently installed from the repos. I had to download from www.getmiro.com
[03:26] <tanath> jimmygoon, yeh, i don't reinstall, i upgrade
[03:26] <Arrick> lol nickrud Merry Christmas to you
[03:26] <jimmygoon> infinitycircuit, intel and i915 are different drivers they do different things
[03:26] <infinitycircuit> NewPiracy, ok well i don't know then i only have experience with my 855GM
[03:26] <Shpook> tanath: if it helps at all lol
[03:26] <NewPiracy> infinitycircuit: i'm having problems with awn, that's why i would like to enable direct rendering
[03:26] <nickrud> Arrick, and to you too, you been gone for a bit
[03:26] <tanath> Shpook, hm... i guess i'll try that, though i prefer to use the repo versions. :/
[03:26] <Z1gfr0id3> pre config squid download exists?
[03:26] <infinitycircuit> jimmygoon, really...i never knew that
[03:26] <jimmygoon> infinitycircuit, thats what I have (i think)
[03:27] <fsanlu> i have a few questions about the wifi: when im connected wired i have no problems, but during wifi i get cut off from time to time. when i enabled my wifi card i had to go thru the restricted drivers to let the firmware be enabled. is it possible that this is the cause of the unstable-ness of my wifi? and if so, are there any other ways i can enable it? i looked thru the wiki's already and followed everything, and for some reason NOTHIN
[03:27] <fsanlu> G seems wrong, but that d/c's i get. any thoughts anyone?
[03:27] <Arrick> not gone, just not in the channel nickrud
[03:27] <k31th> Morning
[03:27] <rhayabusa22> exit
[03:27] <rhayabusa22> lo
[03:27] <infinitycircuit> jimmygoon, well i know i915 is the kernel driver but i believe xorg uses intel to refer to it
[03:27] <nickrud> !info squid | Z1gfr0id3
[03:27] <rhayabusa22> quit
[03:27] <ubotu> z1gfr0id3: squid: Internet object cache (WWW proxy cache). In component main, is optional. Version 2.6.14-1ubuntu2 (gutsy), package size 627 kB, installed size 1580 kB
[03:27] <jimmygoon> infinitycircuit, yeah, like intel outputs to the vga-out by default (always) and weird little things like that if I remember right.... one time I had been trying to get my laptop to work with another monitor (to no avail)
[03:27] <infinitycircuit> jimmygoon, thanks for the info
[03:27] <sleepster> anyone know if Ubuntu can mount NTFS partitions
[03:28] <jimmygoon> infinitycircuit, hm, maybe I'm confused. the day I tried to get that working I had installed all kinds of crap and ended up just getting angry
[03:28] <Phil2> How do I use apt-zip; the how to for it is unavailable.
[03:28] <tanath> Shpook, jimmygoon, ah they have their own repo for gutsy...
[03:28] <jimmygoon> sleepster, sure can
[03:28] <robdig> Z1gfr0id3: yup       sudo apt-get install squid
[03:28] <jimmygoon> tanath, yeah, thats what I was saying :)
[03:28] <nickrud> !ntfs | sleepster
[03:28] <ubotu> sleepster: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE
[03:28] <fsanlu> sleepster: yes, and u can use the ntfs config tool so you can write too
[03:28] <NewPiracy> infinitycircuit: is there a way to explicitly invoke direct rendering in xorg.conf?
[03:28] <jimmygoon> is hardy going to have ntfs-3g built in?
[03:28] <Z1gfr0id3> robdig thank
[03:28] <robdig> Z1gfr0id3: np
[03:29] <infinitycircuit> NewPiracy, add "dri" in the modules section and Option "DRI" "true" in the devices section
[03:29] <nickrud> Phil2, http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/09/22/upgrade-install-ubuntu-on-slow-internet/

[03:29] <nickrud> ah heck. Phil2 that links to the one that's down, a sec
[03:30] <sadaiyappan> Hi.
[03:30] <sleepster> thanks
[03:30] <jimmygoon> nickrud, ubuntu blag is down ??? :(
[03:30] <jimmygoon> tanath, I'm gonna get going, so hopefully you are on the right track or someone else can help you...
[03:30] <emgent> hi Thug-life
[03:30] <Phil2> nickrud: Check your link; that only tells you what apt-zip IS; it doesn't actually tell you how to use it - rather, the tutorial it links you to is unavailable.
[03:30] <tanath> Shpook, apparently i did... it's already there... :/
[03:30] <tanath> jimmygoon, thx anyway
[03:30] <nickrud> Phil2, noticed that, read back :)

[03:31] <Phil2> jimmygoon: no entry
[03:32] <Phil2> wait; let me check again; hold up

[03:33] <tanath> Shpook, er, on the other hand, despite the fact that i have the repo in there, when i reinstall miro it pulls it from the gutsy repo
[03:34] <wers> what file contains the groups?
[03:34] <Shpook> tanath: I think I read one time a way to give certain repos priority if multiple repos contain the same package
[03:34] <tanath> Shpook, erm, nvm... i just updated & now it's pulling it from the miro repo... will let you know if it works
[03:34] <wers> i deleted some user accounts but i think there are conflict with the groups
[03:34] <Shpook> tanath: okay, ty
[03:35] <lwizardl> anyone here have a digiwave 103g card and using it on ubuntu?
[03:35] <tanath> Shpook, you can do that in synaptic easy enough. Ctrl+E on the pkg
[03:35] <Edwardxp> i know this directory exist apache2-default/ and locate apache2-default/	doesn't work.... can't find it
[03:35] <tanath> Shpook, woohoo, it appears to be working :D
[03:36] <tanath> Shpook, the miro repo version
[03:36] <Josspyker> Edwardxp: slocate -u
[03:36] <nickrud> Edwardxp, you mean /var/www/apache2-default ?
[03:36] <koi> so for compiz-fusion what packages should i have installed
[03:36] <Shpook> tanath: ctrl-e is much easier lol.
[03:37] <Shpook> tanath: good! repo it is then. :-)
[03:37] <Edwardxp> whats' var stand for?
[03:37] <Shpook> edwardxp: variable. JS?
[03:37] <nickrud> variable, it's system data that is not static
[03:37] <Edwardxp> oo
[03:37] <Shpook> Edwardxp: are you looking into making a javascript script?
[03:38] <Edwardxp> /var/www/apache2-default/index.html', overriding mode 0644?
[03:38] <tanath> Shpook, yep, working fine now.  and i find ctrl+e handy. instead of messing with priorities you just 'force version' for whichever package you want, it synaptic/apt handles the rest
[03:38] <Edwardxp> why did i get prompt that.. when i mv the file?

[03:40] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

[03:41] <Shpook> dahitokiri: no problem, there are some very good games for Linux. America's Army is one of the better ones.
[03:41] <dahitokiri> Shpook, i don't really like FPS games
[03:41] <techqbert> is it okay to torrent a file to an nfs share?  nfs share is openfiler distro with raid 1 array in ext3
[03:41] <dahitokiri> i'm more of a strategy/rpg kind of person
[03:41] <Shpook> dahitokiri: oh. Well, there are many others. Battle for Wesnoth is addictive lol.
[03:42] <dahitokiri> Shpook, hehe, yup. apt-get'ing currently :)
[03:42] <Shpook> dahitokiri: it's also possible to play some Windows only games through WINE.
[03:42] <dahitokiri> Shpook, yeah, i use vmware workstation to play some games... the ones that don't need extensive 3d
[03:42] <matt_> i'm using ubuntu right now, however i'm considering debian. I've never used it before, I was just wondering if anyone has any opinion on this.
[03:43] <Swaninacar> I have an eye-candy question: when i try to change my visual effects settings to normal in appearance settings, i get a "the composite extension is not available error"
[03:43] <bazhang> ask in #debian or in #ubuntu-offtopic matt_
[03:43] <Shpook> Okay, upgrade is done, goodnight everyone.
[03:44] <matt_> so any comparisons of ubuntu and debian? Does debian perform better/faster? does it have more stuff in the repos? someone break it down for me here!
[03:44] <bazhang> Swaninacar: you have ccsm installed?
[03:44] <pvl> matt_: ubuntu is a debian based linux
[03:44] <IndyGunFreak> matt_: 6 on one hand, half dozen on the other if you ask me... i like the both
[03:44] <pvl> correct me if im wrong anyone
[03:44] <matt_> pvl: i understand that...but just wondering if debian is "better"
[03:44] <Swaninacar> ccsm?  i don't know what it is, so probably not
[03:44] <Arrick> whats the syntax to install all of these with the same command? apache2 php5-mysql libapache2-mod-php5 mysql-server
[03:45] <IndyGunFreak> pvl: no, it is, but there's differences.. ubuntu's repositories will generally be updated more regularly
[03:45] <pvl> matt_ when u say that, it depends on what ur looking for
[03:45] <matt_> IndyGunFreak: alright, but which do you use now? for your main
[03:45] <matt_> pvl: performance mainly.
[03:45] <IndyGunFreak> matt_: both... Debian Etch on my laptop, Ubuntu Gutsy on my PC

[03:45] <IndyGunFreak> matt_: if your'e comfortable w/ Ubuntu, Debian will be quite familiar to you, and vice versa.
[03:45] <pvl> matt_, from what i understand, there isnt much differences, although i suppose since ubuntu is more active, that it would have better suited drivers for your computer
[03:45] <matt_> IndyGunFreak: alright...what about the repos for debian...are they any better? Do they update more?
[03:46] <IndyGunFreak> matt_: no..
[03:46] <Thorsten11> nope
[03:46] <Josspyker> off topic go for arch linux
[03:46] <{Nathan}> matt_: Basically, Ubuntu is easier. In my ventures, debian is harder to use and install (but is by no means a Gentoo) and Ubuntu is just incredibly simple
[03:46] <IndyGunFreak> matt_: ubuntu, is basically Debian, with eye candy..
[03:46] <matt_> IndyGunFreak: pvl so are you all saying i should just stick with my gutsy?
[03:46] <{Nathan}> matt_: I'd say the repos are about the same.
[03:46] <bazhang> matt_: plus the support is far superior
[03:47] <matt_> {Nathan}: i was thinking that, so therefore i was thinking that perhaps debian has better performance.
[03:47] <pvl> matt_, i am
[03:47] <Swaninacar> bazhang: i'll follow those instuctions and get back
[03:47] <hanasakiRemote> is there a package for ipcop?
[03:47] <matt_> bazhang: for ubuntu?
[03:47] <IndyGunFreak> {Nathan}: i don't know, it took a long time for(for example), Pidgin to get into the Debian repos...
[03:47] <IndyGunFreak> same with the new versionof Gimp
[03:47] <{Nathan}> IndyGunFreak: It depends on what version you are running. For Lenny, sure it will take a while. Testing and unstable, not so much
[03:47] <bazhang> matt_: indeed; visit the #debian channel and see for yourself
[03:47] <IndyGunFreak> matt_: do whatever you want, one thing for sure though, go to #debian, they are straight pricks.... #ubuntu is far friendlier
[03:47] <matt_> IndyGunFreak: {Nathan} it also took a while for pidgin to get to ubuntu
[03:47] <pvl> hey what do the green things next to topic names in the forum mean?
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> {Nathan}: i run etch
[03:48] <{Nathan}> matt_: nah, the perfarmance is still the same... if you run the same things
[03:48] <matt_> bazhang: IndyGunFreak wow...its getting late...i thought i was on the #debian channel.
[03:48] <bazhang> matt_: hahaha
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> matt_: if you haven't seen the f-word in the last 10-15 sentences, you will always know you're not in #debian
[03:49] <koi> hey, is the guy who has compiz-fusion running on intel 915 still here/
[03:49] <matt_> {Nathan}: bazhang IndyGunFreak pvl alright, thank you all, i'll check out the debian channel, where i thought i were already ;)
[03:49] <Arrick> you mean in the channels pvl ? they are operators or in chanservs case, chanel guards
[03:49] <IndyGunFreak> matt_: put your flame suit on, they hate ubuntu users
[03:49] <ushdfgakk> rtf >> fdic
[03:49] <arooni_> can someone help me get my motorola s9 bluetooth headphones working with gutsy?
[03:50] <pvl> Arrick, well that wouldve been my next question, but i meant specifically in the forums
[03:50] <Edwardxp> http://<IP_ADDRESS>/apache2-default/
[03:50] <bazhang> !bluetooth | arooni_
[03:50] <Edwardxp> heh better than nothing
[03:50] <ubotu> arooni_: For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[03:51] <{Nathan}> I'm getting a bluetooth headset soon, will it work as a headset for my computer too? I'm have bluetooth, not stupid.
[03:51] <{Nathan}> It's made for my phone btw
[03:51] <LegionaryK> is it just me or are the ubuntu forums really laggy right now
[03:51] <ushdfgakk> ubuntu??? more like mozambique
[03:52] <lwizardl> how can i set my login to auto login my user?
[03:52] <koi> i'm trying to install compiz-fusion and i get the error saying that  compiz depends on compiz-decorator
[03:52] <koi> what repositories/sources do i have to add to get that package/
[03:52] <Swaninacar> bazhang: just to check, is ccsm supposed to be a replacement for the visual effects settings?  if yes, how do i solve the problem of "unavailable composite extension" so i don't run into it again
[03:52] <Arrick> whats the modern day version of something like the old webmin?
[03:53] <LegionaryK> since the forums are so slow, can anyone tell me where to disable a wireless interface?
[03:53] <bazhang> Swaninacar: that will be the new preferences setting mechanism yes; installing it will solve those issues iirc
[03:53] <demonspork> whenever I select my Ubuntu Gutsy from the GRUB menu it goes to a screen saying that it 'cannot mount the selected partition.'  I have run fsck on the partition and it found no errors. What can I do? it happened after a power outage shut down the computer unexpectedly. My other Ubuntu system and both Windows still boot correctly.
[03:54] <NolanG> Anyone know of any recent Ubuntu (Gutsy) updates that have broken software such as VirtualBox? As of a few days ago, VirtualBox now segfaults on me - I've not installed or really even used the system since it last worked.
[03:54] <thresher> what is the compiz support irc?
[03:54] <ushdfgakk> virtualbox? more like seagulls
[03:54] <Phil2> Great; so I'm back - I didn't read that apt-zip needs to be installed on two systems for it to work.
[03:54] <demonspork> thresher, #compiz-fusion
[03:55] <the_darkside_986> i'm on Ubuntu Gutsy. it rocks. but i can't figure out a way to unzip all RAR files in a single folder all at once without having to click on each one. any ideas?
[03:55] <Phil2> Unfortunately; - it isn't, and I don't know how to install it on the other system.
[03:55] <Phil2> I'm trying to install wifi-radar onto a non-networked computer; someone told me to use apt-zip; to bad it isn't on the other computer.
[03:55] <Phil2> Perhaps apt-double-zip? (sarcasm)
[03:56] <te_> demonspork: Have you tried single user mode yet?
[03:56] <UBUNTUISLOVED> can someone tell me what this is about? http://pastebin.com/m6e7fab78
[03:56] <hanasakiRemote> is there anyway to add ipcop to an existing gutsy install?
[03:57] <Swaninacar> bazhang: i installed it, but none of the effects seem to be working, nor does it take care of the composite extensions error
[03:57] <te_> Phil2: Any reason it's "non-networked"?
[03:57] <bazhang> iptables config hanasakiRemote?
[03:57] <Phil2> te_: I need to install wifi-radar.
[03:57] <bazhang> Swaninacar: then it is a video card driver issue
[03:57] <Phil2> te_: to bad I need to be networked to install it; eh?
[03:57] <demonspork> te_, it fails with a "Cannot mount selected partition" whenever I use any boot option.  The things I have tried are as follows: fsck, I have checked the uuid, I have attempted to use a boot CD I made for the partition a while back, only to get the same error.
[03:58] <Swaninacar> bazhang: which probably means i'm out of luck?
[03:58] <danroj> enter by see my desktop apple :D http://www.gfc.edu.co/~danroj/red.png
[03:58] <NolanG> I have new information: The segfaults seem to affect QT3 apps, including VirtualBox.  Thoughts on what could have made that happen all of the sudden?
[03:58] <danroj> and coment
[03:58] <danroj> :D
[03:58] <demonspork> te_, the partition mounts normally and had no errors under inspection by fsck
[03:58] <bazhang> Swaninacar: dont give up so easily :} what card and what driver, installed from where
[03:59] <Phil2> danroj: way to red.
[03:59] <apocn> Hello, Im trying to install and configure freeRadius, but when I setup PEAP I get the error: rlm_eap: Failed to link EAP-Type/tls: rlm_eap_tls.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[03:59] <apocn> any hints?
[03:59] <the_darkside_986> everytime i try to use "unrar *.rar" i keep getting nothing but the unrar usage help message. i tried unrar someFile.rar ./ and that did the same thing. what is this about?
[03:59] <bazhang> danroj: and offtopic
[03:59] <te_> demonspork: Are you sure grub is bootint to the correct partition?
[03:59] <bazhang> apocn: networking issue?
[04:00] <demonspork> te_, yes
[04:00] <gerzel> Q: I want to install the latest version of the mana world (www.themanaworld.org) which is 0.0.24, but the latest on the repositories is 0.0.23.  I know how to run ./config make make install but I'm not sure how to take a program installed in that way off my machine.  Is there a way I can turn the tar.gz source into a debian package?
[04:00] <Evolution2> hey guys, I keep getting this "cannot mount external drive error. and appearently I have to force it because it seems to be in generic mode. I don't have windows to do a safely remove. help please
[04:00] <te_> demonspork: Has menu.lst been changed? (ls -l /boot/grub/menu.lst  and observe the date).
[04:00] <Edwardxp> so what do you guys think of my site so far?
[04:01] <Swaninacar> bazhang: thanks, haha.  radeon X300.  when i use the default driver, i get lots of gnome issues, but the extra effects work.  when I use the driver that the restricted drivers manager suggests, an ATI driver, no more gnome errors, but effects break
[04:01] <LegionaryK> can anyone tell me how to disable a wlan interface?
[04:01] <CyberMad> is there list of motherboard with onboard vga that running compiz perfectly ?
[04:01] <bazhang> Swaninacar: is that a pretty good card? not really sure about ati :}
[04:02] <te_> demonspork: do you have only one kernel?
[04:02] <the_darkside_986> !unrar
[04:02] <ubotu> rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[04:02] <bazhang> CyberMad: ask in #compiz-fusion please
[04:02] <Evolution2>  I keep getting this "cannot mount external drive error. and appearently I have to force it because it seems to be in generic mode. I don't have windows to do a safely remove. any ideas?
[04:02] <robdig> gerzel: you can, but it takes some work. you can also look at the makefile, if they have an uninstall target that is properly written, doing make uninstall should get rid of it.
[04:02] <|chiz|> Ok, so I have everything working quite well gutsy/compiz/aiglx/fglrx but opengl apps don't run very smoothly, they flicker and there is no window border.  Any insight?
[04:02] <Phil2> Anyone know how to make a .deb package that I can install on another system?
[04:03] <IndyGunFreak> CyberMad: why not just buy a video card, instead of a motherboard?
[04:03] <CyberMad> ok, thank you
[04:03] <arooni_> can someone help me get my motorola s9 bluetooth headphones working with gutsy?  i've read a lot of cos but they're ont helpful
[04:03] <demonspork> te_, no it has not been changed since almost 2 weeks before the incident
[04:03] <bazhang> the_darkside_986: you trying to join a bunch of smaller rar files into a bigger file of some sort? just clicking on the first file should join it up
[04:03] <IndyGunFreak> Phil2: is it a program you're compiling?
[04:03] <Swaninacar> bazhang: it's an okay card.  it wasn't my choice, i'm resurrecting a crapped out computer
[04:03] <te_> you chould boot from the CD and chroot to it and then re-install the kernel. (There must be something wrong with the kernel.)
[04:03] <the_darkside_986> @bazhang no these are all separate rar files that are not joined together :(
[04:03] <Phil2> IndyGunFreak: Yeah; either wifi-radar or apt-zip
[04:03] <the_darkside_986> so i was looking for a way to easily extract them all at once via the bash shell
[04:04] <dave_> Hello........I am wondering if I can get an assist in getting my X config straight for 2 monitors using an nvidia card on 7.10?
[04:04] <Thorsten11> i just saved a crapped out computer myself lol
[04:04] <IndyGunFreak> Phil2: i *think* when you're compiling, if you run make-check, before make install... or maybe before make, it will create a .deb file.
[04:04] <bazhang> the_darkside_986: oh--you can do it, just want to save time?
[04:04] <IndyGunFreak> dave_: whats the prob?...
[04:04] <te_> demonspork: That is, if you are sure that grub is pointing to the partition that contains the kernel it needs to boot.
[04:04] <bazhang> Swaninacar: I got it :}
[04:04] <Thorsten11> installed server 7.10 and it works great
[04:04] <Phil2> IndyGunFreak: Run me through compiling; I'm a java programmer; not a linux person ;-)
[04:04] <goodstarting> yezi
[04:04] <Thorsten11> only thing was i fried the network card the other week
[04:04] <IndyGunFreak> Phil2: if you're not a linux person, then there is no way to "run you through" compiling
[04:05] <Jack_Sparrow> !dualhead
[04:05] <ubotu> Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama
[04:05] <te_> demonspork: Have you mounted the partition and looked at /boot to see if everything is still there?
[04:05] <goodstarting> 知道怎么配置amule的ed2k吗
[04:05] <the_darkside_986> @bazhang i figured it out. i had to make a for eachFile in *.rar bash script for-loop
[04:05] <Thorsten11> i ended up putting another mb because the network card was integrated
[04:05] <the_darkside_986> and then > do unrar x "$eachFile" done
[04:05] <demonspork> te_, yes
[04:05] <Phil2> IndyGunFreak: Ok; ok, how can I compile this .tar.gz file; and make it into a .deb package then?
[04:05] <bazhang> arooni_: if you dont get an answer here right away you can also post/search the forums and then repeat your question here every so often--likely someone else has that same problem
[04:05] <dave_> Indygunfreak .....the Ubuntu tool configs the monitors with the borders exceeding the screen real estate......however if I disable the 2nd monitor it is fine
[04:05] <bazhang> !cn | goodstarting
[04:05] <ubotu> goodstarting: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw  或者 #ubuntu-hk
[04:05] <IndyGunFreak> Phil2: like i said, i think itas make-check
[04:05] <Jack_Sparrow> !compile > Phil2
[04:06] <Phil2> Thanks.
[04:06] <te_> You're sure that vmlinuz and initrd and System.map are still there?
[04:06] <bazhang> the_darkside_986: nicely done, thanks for the tip!
[04:06] <nickrud> IndyGunFreak, Phil2 checkinstall
[04:06] <ce_muse_17> jj
[04:06] <IndyGunFreak> nickrud: thats it, thank you... coudln't remember
[04:06] <mezoko> can somebody pls tell me what is wrong with my apache install http://paste.on.nimp.org
[04:06] <the_darkside_986> @bazhang no problem. for some reason the command unrar x *.rar only wanted to extract the first file in a list so i had to make a for-loop
[04:06] <Thorsten11> what are your symptoms
[04:06] <IndyGunFreak> nickrud: do you run that after make, after ./configure, before/afgter make/install?
[04:06] <demonspork> te_, yes they are still there
[04:07] <dave_> IndyGunFreak .....the Ubuntu tool configs the monitors with the borders exceeding the screen real estate......however if I disable the 2nd monitor it is fine
[04:07] <te_> demonspork: Show us menu.lst via pastebin and then the output of: sudo fdisk -l
[04:07] <IndyGunFreak> dave_: i really don't understand your question.
[04:07] <Thorsten11> mezoko: what seems to be your problem
[04:07] <nalioth> Thorsten11: he's a troll. don't visit that link.
[04:08] <Thorsten11> thanks for the tip :)
[04:08] <quinton> Does anyone know the best channel for television/sound system support?

[04:08] <Thorsten11> nalioth: how did you know?
[04:09] <bazhang> !freenode
[04:09] <ubotu> freenode is the IRC network that you're on! See http://freenode.net/faq.shtml

[04:09] <nalioth> Thorsten11: i recognize the link
[04:09] <quinton> indygunfreak, hey man, I have found a problem and its quiet simple to solve, its not about linux but would you help?
[04:09] <te_> LegionaryK: ifconfig wlan0 down
[04:09] <gerzel> 'robdig how do I tell if the uninstall is properly written?
[04:09] <te_> LegionaryK: sudo ifconfig wlan1 down
[04:09] <nickrud> IndyGunFreak, iirc it replaces make install
[04:09] <Thorsten11> nalioth: thanks for the save
[04:09] <dave_> IndyGunFreak to try and clarify........when I have one monitor enabled everything works fine.....if I enable the 2nd monitor,  you cannot see the edges of the desktop w/o moving the mouse
[04:09]  * LegionaryK thanks te_
[04:09] <IndyGunFreak> nickrud: ok.. i'vfe never done it.
[04:09] <shm613> Could someone please help me. My wireless card cannot detect my wireless network
[04:09] <Swaninacar> bhazang: i switched to a different ati driver, it seems to work now.  thanks for all your help
[04:09] <nickrud> IndyGunFreak, I've done it a few times, I avoid compilation these days
[04:10] <pvl> are there keys to grab the screen? i have a virtual screen and id like to pan about it easier
[04:10] <te_> shm613: sudo iwconfig essid linksys
[04:10] <te_> shm613: sudo iwconfig eth1 essid linksys
[04:10] <demonspork> te_, http://pastebin.com/m5f18c068  is the output of the command
[04:10] <IndyGunFreak> dave_: oh ok....  i understand now. i've never had that problem... what do you have your resolution set at?
[04:10] <Thorsten11> shm613: like te_ said
[04:10] <te_> shm613: where eth1 is the nic and linksys is the essid of your wireless router... etc

[04:11] <dave_> IndyGunFreak 1280x1024 ironically nvidia's own tool works to fix it....but if you try and install it you break the restricted driver
[04:11] <IndyGunFreak> dave_: i have nvidia's tol installed just fine.
[04:11] <lwizardl> is there anyway to auto login on ubuntu?
[04:11] <robdig> gerzel: it should look similar to the install target, except it should be removing files instead of copying/moving them
[04:11] <Edwardxp> xmms is pimping out on my server :)
[04:12] <gerzel> robdig: Ok thanks
[04:12] <nickrud> lwizardl, system->admin->login window , security tab
[04:12] <demonspork> te_, http://pastebin.com/m16d52a5 my menu.lst
[04:12] <te_> shm613: First give command: iwconfig    [with no arguments] and see what it says.
[04:12] <IndyGunFreak> how did you go about installing your nvidia driver dave_
[04:12] <pvl> are there keys to grab the screen toards virtual screens?
[04:12] <dave_> IndyGunFreak strange when I try to install nvidia-config it wants to remove the driver
[04:12] <gerzel> robdig: On second thought I'll be patient and give them a little while to get a debian or ubuntu package up.  Apparently they are pestering someone at Ubuntu to do it.
[04:13] <robdig> gerzel: cool. definitely easier that way :)
[04:13] <dave_> IndyGunFreak I did the enable restricted driver and let it handle the apt-get work
[04:13] <bazhang> http://tuxicity.wordpress.com/2007/03/02/some-gdm-basics-for-ubuntu-and-xubuntu-theming-and-auto-login/ lwizardl
[04:13] <IndyGunFreak> dave_: ok.. and?
[04:14] <lwizardl> nickrud, thanks i wanted this box to be a mythtv box and not need me to give out the password incase it gets shut off
[04:15] <rushmarine> hello
[04:15] <dave_> IndyGunFreak the driver installs fine and enables.............but it doesnt seem to have the nvida tool installed.....going to the "Screens and Graphics" to do it results in virtual desktops or bulletproof X when I try and  fenable the 2nd monitor
[04:15] <lukewarm> !hi > rushmarine
[04:15] <|chiz|> lwizardl, you can auto logon
[04:15] <rushmarine> how r u
[04:15] <rushmarine> where u from?
[04:15] <the_darkside_986> i'm off to play Frets on Fire again. Thanks everyone here for all their help and support. Ubuntu rox! bye bye
[04:15] <Swaninacar> bazhang: thanks for your help, i used a different driver, it all works brilliantly
[04:16] <|chiz|> lwizardl, its in System > Logon Window
[04:16] <IndyGunFreak> dave_: very strange, don't think i've ever had that prob, what video card?
[04:16] <lwizardl> chiz, yeah i got that already
[04:16] <bazhang> swanincar nicework1
[04:16] <dave_> IndyGunFreak I then go into synapytic to install the tool and it wants to remove the nvidia(newest) driver.......GeForce 6200
[04:17] <demonspork> dave_, it is already installed
[04:17] <IndyGunFreak> dave_: see, nvidia-settings has always been installed when i enable restricted...
[04:17] <demonspork> dave_, it installs with the driver
[04:17] <IndyGunFreak> dave_: open a terminal and type "gksudo nvidia-settings"
[04:17] <shm613> te_: The first line has ESSID:"HOME" Nickname:"Broadcom 4211"
[04:17] <dave_> ok..............so I just need to go to the terminal ......I didnt see it populate a menu
[04:18] <IndyGunFreak> dave_: yes, open a terminal, gksudo nvidia-settings
[04:18] <IndyGunFreak> you can add it to the menu if you like
[04:18] <te_> demonspork: menu.lst has errors
[04:18] <rushmarine> am new on this thing can tell me how can i watch the video form the internet
[04:18] <rushmarine> cuz loooks like need some flash player
[04:18] <bazhang> rushmarine: flash?
[04:18] <lwizardl> anyone use a twinhan dvb card in ubuntu?
[04:18] <IndyGunFreak> rushmarine: well there's a lot of videos on the internet, what format is it.
[04:19] <Jack_Sparrow> !flashissues
[04:19] <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.
[04:19] <rushmarine> cuz every time when i wanna see a video i have to download the file
[04:19] <jubilee> Hey, When I play Open Arena, like 40 min to an hour into the game open arena exits full screen into a window, all of the colors on the screen change and everything stops working... what is this from???
[04:19] <jubilee> I can't quit anything when it happens
[04:19] <dave_> well dont I feel like the fool.....since Ive been using Linux since Suse 4.0.......but this is the first Ive let the OS install nvidia driver

[04:20] <rushmarine> tahnk you pple
[04:20] <rushmarine> ppl
[04:21] <dave_> IndyGunFreak I always do that, along with one for Nautilus in super user mode
[04:21] <te_> demonspork: Line 131  "root  (hd0,2)"  Should be:  "root   (hd0,5)"  (From the partition info on:    It appears that /dev/sda4 is the bootable partition on that first drive).
[04:21] <IndyGunFreak> dave_: yup, its handy
[04:21] <IndyGunFreak> i do the same
[04:21] <jeff__> how can I get flash to work...
[04:21] <IndyGunFreak> jeff__: download it from adobe, compile it, and it will work fine
[04:22] <jeff__> indy gun freak.
[04:22] <jeff__> are you in indy?
[04:22] <IndyGunFreak> no...
[04:22] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:22] <Myrtti> IndyGunFreak: compile? ;-)
[04:22] <Jack_Sparrow> dave how are you running it in su mode?
[04:22] <jeff__> oh okay
[04:22] <jubilee> bazhang, it only happens when I'm playing a long time, and also, I can play it on OS X and multiplayer works perfectly, but under Gusty it tells me there are connection problems during the match for about 90% of the game...
[04:22] <IndyGunFreak> Myrtti: well, maybe *compile* is stretching it... run the installer that you download from adobe.
[04:22] <Smegzor> Where do programs store their preferences?  I moved my podcasts from Rhythmbox and want to update it so it can see the files in their new location.
[04:22] <IndyGunFreak> jeff__: sorry, bad humor, yes I'm in Indy.... BeechGrove gto be specific(suburb of Indpls)
[04:22] <te_>  demonspork:  Change (hd0,2) to (hd0,5) on line 131  and that shoud do the trick.
[04:23] <IndyGunFreak> guess he didn't care...lol
[04:23] <LegionaryK> advice to people with wifi probs, it not always enough to disable an interface, you might need to physically remove it and reboot the system before the interfaces stop interferring.
[04:23] <dave_> Jack I havent gotten that far yet...........Im loading into my menu "gksudo nvidia-settings -g"
[04:23] <Myrtti> IndyGunFreak: better :-) newbs are afraid of compiling.
[04:23] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:23] <IndyGunFreak> yeah, i know.. been there done that
[04:23] <Jack_Sparrow> dave np
[04:23] <Darriou1> Hello
[04:24] <robdig> hi
[04:24] <shm613> te_: I also have the Frequency is not the same as my router's frequency and Access Point: Invalid
[04:24] <Darriou1> I'm having problems actually trying to get my NVIDIA card working with ubuntu at ALL
[04:25] <IndyGunFreak> Darriou1: have you enabled the restricted driver?
[04:25] <Darriou1> Yep
[04:25] <IndyGunFreak> ok, so whast wrong?
[04:25] <Darriou1> I also have an integrated intel card
[04:25] <demonspork> te_, that same error is on the next two boot options as well, or is that an error?
[04:25] <bazhang> jubilee: google yields nada--you could post in the forums or wait here for an answer
[04:26] <IndyGunFreak> Darriou1: whats that got to do with anything?
[04:26] <Darriou1> Well, the problem is that whenever I boot into UBUNTU it goes and just doesn't even boot
[04:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Darriou1: If yui have not disabled your onboard card it could be causing problems
[04:26] <Darriou1> I have
[04:26] <Darriou1> That's what is odd to me
[04:26] <te_> demonspork: The other boot options are wrong as well.
[04:26] <IndyGunFreak> Darriou1: is this a live CD, or have you installed?
[04:27] <Darriou1> I can't even get the live cd to work, and when I use a command line to install, when I boot into it, it does the same thing as the live CD
[04:27] <demonspork> hmm
[04:28] <Darriou1> I've got an NVIDIA GeForce 5200
[04:28] <IndyGunFreak> Darriou1: i assume by *command line* you mean the text based install?.. Alternate Install CD?
[04:28] <Darriou1> Yeah
[04:28] <te_> demonspork: line 137: change (hd0,2 to (hd0,5)
[04:28] <jubilee> k
[04:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Darriou1: When you use the command line to install?  Are you using the alternate install cd or some wubi vm something or other
[04:28] <Darriou1> It works with WIndows fine though
[04:28] <IndyGunFreak> Darriou1: you obviously have some hardware issues other than the nvidia card
[04:29] <demonspork> te_, why would this happen if I haven't changed the menu.lst file, how can I fix it without changing the file
[04:29] <ushdfgakk> trying so hard to not smoke < ubuntu
[04:29] <demonspork> te_, because my other Linux OS and the windows booloader still work
[04:29] <Darriou1> Well, it works just fine when I switch to my integrated card
[04:29] <ushdfgakk> "menu.lst?" more like "shutup.ihateyou" lol?
[04:29] <IndyGunFreak> ushdfgakk: what do you mean?
[04:29] <Jack_Sparrow> ushdfgakk: behave
[04:29] <ward_> Evening all
[04:29] <Darriou1> and I used just an option that had come with the actuall cd
[04:30]  * ushdfgakk dies
[04:30]  * ushdfgakk bleeds out ebola-style
[04:30] <ushdfgakk> look out!??!
[04:30] <Darriou1> It's not that big of a deal I suppose, but I'd really like to get my dual display up and running
[04:30] <Jack_Sparrow> Darriou1: What option.. there is no text install on the livecd
[04:30] <IndyGunFreak> Jack_Sparrow: thats what i was just trying to figure out.
[04:30] <te_> demonspork: line 157: change (hd0,4) to (hd0,6)
[04:30] <IndyGunFreak> Darriou1: the alternate install, is a completely different download...
[04:31] <Darriou1> One of my friends gave me a disk that siad something like install with command line or something like that
[04:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Darriou1: Plus, you said you disabled the onboard, but are trying to get it to work...  something does not add up
[04:31] <fladd> hi there! I really need some help!!! can anyone tell me, why I cannot use update-grub, after I did chroot?
[04:31] <shm613> is there a way to set the Access Point value to the MAC of the router for a wireless card?
[04:31] <unbeatabl> can you NFS a harddrive partition from a windows machine?
[04:31] <Darriou1> There is a setting in my bios
[04:31] <demonspork> te_, that still changes the file?
[04:31] <fladd> oh, i am talking about the live cd btw
[04:31] <Sonja> is anybody german in here??
[04:32] <te_> demonspork: I'm just guessing really. Would have to see what's really there in the /boot directories on those partitions, sda4 and sda5  and sdb2
[04:32] <Darriou1> that says peripherals and it switches between Intel Integrated and PCI Express slot

[04:34] <demonspork> dowlings: #compiz-fusion
[04:34] <dowlings> thanks
[04:35] <Arrick> hey all, is SELinux enabled by default in 6.06.1?
[04:35] <te_> demonspork: Here's the deal,  grub refers to hda or sda as hd0  and hdb or sdb as hd1  and same with partitions.  Therefore, /dev/hda1 to grub is (hd0,0) ....  sda4=(hd0,5) sda5=(hd0,6) sdb2=(hd1,3)
[04:35] <Arrick> I have a LAMP install, and I cant edit permissions for some reason on the /var/www/ files
[04:36] <nickrud> te_, you added instead of subtracted on the partitions there
[04:36] <bazhang> Arrick: no
[04:36] <IndyGunFreak> Arrick: why ar eyou messin with 6.06?
[04:36] <zcode> hi
[04:36] <te_> nickrud: you might be right....
[04:36] <Myrtti> IndyGunFreak: lts?
[04:36] <Arrick> bazhang what could stop the root user from being able to change permissions?
[04:37] <Arrick> IndyGunFreak LTS, and its a server install?
[04:37] <IndyGunFreak> Arrick: ok... in that instance i guess i could understand.
[04:37] <IndyGunFreak> Myrtti: i guess i'm used to keeping up with the ubuntu release cycle.
[04:37] <bazhang> Arrick: not sure of your question? have you changed permissions somehow?
[04:37] <te_> nickrud is correct.  I was wrong.
[04:38] <te_> demonspork: I was wrong.
[04:38] <te_> demonspork: menu.lst is not in error.
[04:38] <jason___> anyone here willing to help a Linux noob with a sound problem so he can stop using WinXP?
[04:38] <thresher> Can anyone suggest the best MAIL POP application that compares to Outlook ?
[04:38] <te_> demonspork: Not sure what the problem is.  Accept that there may be something wrong with the kernel you are trying to boot.
[04:38] <cyborg> hunre
[04:38] <thresher> Evolution and Thunderbird...
[04:39] <ushdfgakk> how many manpages must a man read before you can call him a man???
[04:39] <Arrick> bazhang i would like to change the permissions to 775 on a bunch of directories and such, but it wont change them, with sudo chmod 775 /blah or with running as root, and running chmod 775 /blah
[04:39] <bazhang> ushdfgakk: you have a real question?
[04:39] <nickrud> ushdfgakk, one. dpkg
[04:39] <shm613> Does anyone know if a RJ-11 would get a eth label in iwconfig?
[04:39] <te_> demonspork: You could chroot to that partition /dev/sda4  and try to re-install the kernel... I guess, but other than that I don' know
[04:39] <ushdfgakk> i liked nickrud's answer better
[04:39]  * ushdfgakk awards nickrud ten points
[04:39] <bio> I just made a mint install of edgy-generic
[04:40] <bazhang> offtopic ushdfgakk
[04:40] <te_> shm613: RJ-11 ?
[04:40] <Myrtti> !offtopic | ushdfgakk
[04:40] <te_> shm613: You mean an ethernet port?
[04:40] <ubotu> ushdfgakk: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:40] <thresher> Can anyone suggest the best MAIL POP application that compares to Outlook ?
[04:40] <bio> then I did a distribution upgrade and I can't get the new kernels to boot
[04:40] <te_> shm613: You mean an ethernet port? (as opposed to a wireless nic?
[04:40] <nickrud> thresher, you mentioned them both already
[04:40] <bio> any ideas?
[04:40]  * ushdfgakk mutters
[04:40] <bazhang> Arrick: wols is the one to ask about that--he should be by later
[04:40] <ushdfgakk> Only on IRC
[04:40]  * ushdfgakk me me
[04:40] <jason___> i like thunderbird with the right extensions i find it better than Outlook
[04:40] <thresher> nickrud: thanks
[04:40] <Myrtti> ushdfgakk: if you've got nothing else, move along
[04:40] <shm613> te_: the ethernet port is RJ-45 RJ-11 would be the phone line port
[04:41] <ushdfgakk> ok how about this
[04:41] <bazhang> ushdfgakk: please stop
[04:41] <ushdfgakk> why won't my NTFS drive mount on my dual boot
[04:41] <Jack_Sparrow> bio: Seems to happen alot to people that had tried automatix or envy scripts....both bad ideas by the way
[04:41] <ushdfgakk> it only mounts in read-only
[04:41] <nickrud> !ntfs-3g | ushdfgakk
[04:41] <ubotu> ushdfgakk: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[04:41] <ushdfgakk> i installed it
[04:41] <bio> Jack_Sparrow, I just made a mint install and used the GUI in the panel
[04:41] <IndyGunFreak> ushdfgakk: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[04:41] <ushdfgakk> it's debian actually but
[04:41] <thresher> Does thunderbird handle calendar and does it by chance sync with yahoo?
[04:41] <obnockshus> hallo
[04:41] <ushdfgakk> it shouldn't be a distro-specific problem
[04:41] <shm613> te_: I'm getting three labels from iwconfig lo, eth0, and eth1
[04:41] <voice> hi
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> bio: Ask in mint.. but their support is almost non-existent
[04:42] <te_> shm613: A phone line port will not be a network adapter so would not show in ifconfig nor will it show in iwconfig
[04:42] <IndyGunFreak> ushdfgakk: i don't know, i'm running gutsy, and my NTFS partition mounted automatically
[04:42] <jason___> it handles a calendar with the lightning extension
[04:42] <bio> Jack_Sparrow, ask in mint?
[04:42] <ushdfgakk> well it's a separate drive
[04:42] <IndyGunFreak> bio: type "/join #linuxmint" w/o quotes
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> !mint
[04:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mint - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:42] <astro76> bio, mint is a pointless version of Ubuntu that uses automatix, but I don't think that's what you mean ;)
[04:42] <bazhang> bio: #linuxmint.com not on freenode btw
[04:42] <jason___> I don't use yahoo, but it does have remote calendars, i use mine to look at Google
[04:42] <te_> shm613: You have a modem?  And are trying to use the modem?  Is that correct?
[04:42] <IndyGunFreak> there's a whole 6 users there.
[04:43] <bio> yeah, I just meant a fresh install
[04:43] <ushdfgakk> also how do i configure the complexity of what x-forwarding sends
[04:43] <shm613> te_: no I'm trying to use the wireless card
[04:43] <ushdfgakk> slash the compression
[04:43] <te_> shm613: Do you have more than one wireless nic?
[04:43] <jason___> with the inclusion of the thunderbrowser, it makes a killer rss feed reader
[04:43] <IndyGunFreak> bazhang: they have a channel on freenode, its just nobody ever talks in there
[04:43] <ushdfgakk> in ubuntu, that is
[04:43] <bio> everything works fine with this kernel, not sure which one it is... third on the list in grub now
[04:43] <astro76> bio, any reason installing edgy instead of gutsy?
[04:43] <ushdfgakk> that one's an ubuntu problem
[04:43] <bazhang> thunderbrowser haha
[04:43] <bio> astro76, just the disk that I had
[04:43] <bazhang> IndyGunFreak: thanks!
[04:43] <shm613> te_: no I only have one wireless NIC and a wired NIC
[04:43] <jason___> plus, you can circumvent having to pay for pop access with yahoo with the webclient and yahoo extension in thunderbird
[04:44] <mac_> hi guys
[04:44] <mac_> got a doubt
[04:44] <bio> hi mac_
[04:44] <jason___> thunderbrowser is good for limited purpose
[04:44] <mac_> hey bio
[04:44] <astro76> bio, you tried to dist-upgrade from edgy to feisty then?
[04:44] <bazhang> what is it mac_
[04:44] <bio> astro76, that's right
[04:44] <te_> shameless: Ok, then the ethernet NIC will more than likely be eth0
[04:44] <ushdfgakk> also my debian mini-iso won't even boot on my imac
[04:44] <te_> shm613:  ethernet NIC will more than likely be eth0
[04:45] <IndyGunFreak> ushdfgakk: you do realize this is an ubuntu support channel don't you, take your mindless banter to off-topic
[04:45] <bazhang> ushdfgakk: they would know in #debian
[04:45] <te_> shm613: what wireless nic do you have?
[04:45] <te_> shm613: Is it fully supported?
[04:45] <mac_> i have dell ubuntu system, there is a dellutility folder with dos files, whats that for
[04:45] <shm613> te_: Broadcom 4311
[04:45] <voice> my ubuntu cd isn't working properly. when i first used it i loaded into ubuntu fine, now when i load it it comes up with a command line, and reports it cant load "xfer"-something
[04:45] <Jack_Sparrow> bio: Ok.. Fresh Mint Install.... does not equal distribution upgrade...  and three kernels listed...sorry, but very tired, good luck with that.
[04:45] <ushdfgakk> you call that mindless banter
[04:45] <te_> shm613: what does iwconfig show for it?  wlan0 or eth1 ?
[04:45] <nickrud> mac_, you probably should check your dell docs
[04:45] <ushdfgakk> i call it talking about problems i'm having with linux
[04:45] <obnockshus> I want to run audio/video from my old (windows) drive and am not sure that there won't be major issues (based on the warnings from the GL "player" download) Can anyone give me a bit of advice?
[04:46] <voice> when i ran the cd integrity check it said there was nothing wrong with it
[04:46] <shm613> te_: eth1
[04:46] <IndyGunFreak> ushdfgakk: yes, and completely off-topic for this channel.
[04:46] <bazhang> ushdfgakk: please stop
[04:46]  * bio off to play a little tremulous
[04:46] <tsukasa> hey is there a command to execute a command one level higher then what your on? eg i want to launch a daemon from ssh such that when i close the ssh connection its still running
[04:46] <mac_> there is a windows booklet they gave me for my linux system
[04:46] <te_> shm613: Ok, is it connecting to your router for you?
[04:46] <JoshJ> So, I take it that ubuntu ignores /etc/fstab ?
[04:46] <te_>  shm613 or not?
[04:46] <shm613> te_: No it is not connecting to my router
[04:46] <astro76> JoshJ, of course not
[04:46] <tsukasa> anyone?
[04:47] <nickrud> tsukasa, you can use screen in your ssh session, or use  the  disown bash builtin
[04:47] <JoshJ> astro76: then explain this (details coming)
[04:47] <te_> shm613: Does your router use some sort of encryption?
[04:47] <Myrtti> ushdfgakk: this channel isn't Generic Linux help channel
[04:47] <te_> shm613: wep or ...?
[04:47] <shm613> te_: No just a MAC filter
[04:47] <mac_> its mounted over /media
[04:47] <IndyGunFreak> ushdfgakk: ask in #linux  if they don't ban you after 15min, they'll enjoy your questions
[04:47] <mac_> whats this /media ment for
[04:47] <te_> shm613: Have you entered the MAC in your router's list of devices?
[04:47] <rootard> how are Ubuntu patches maintained over debian packages? Is there a common process or is it ad-hoc per package?
[04:47] <shm613> te_: and I got the mac address for the wireless NIC and put it in the list
[04:47] <ubuntu_> could somebody tell me how to load this X-Fi audio driver I d/l
[04:47] <astro76> mac_, mounting stuff
[04:48] <nickrud> mac_, media is generally used for automounting external devices, like usb sticks or drives
[04:48] <voice> my ubuntu cd isn't working properly. when i first used it i loaded into ubuntu fine, now when i load it it comes up with a command line, and reports it cant load "xfer"-something. can anyone help?
[04:48] <ushdfgakk> i'm gonna build my own #ubuntu
[04:48] <ushdfgakk> with blackjack...and hookers!
[04:48] <ushdfgakk> in fact
[04:48] <ushdfgakk> forget the chatroom
[04:48] <te_> shm613: Look at the output of iwconfig and see if it is acquiring the essid.
[04:48] <astro76> mac_, /mnt according to the FHS is only for temporary mounting, with no subdirectories.. contrary to how many distros use it
[04:48] <cah_djogja20> hi
[04:48] <shm613> te_: It gets the ESSID but not the mac from the router
[04:49] <bazhang> ushdfgakk: last warning
[04:49] <JoshJ> I just repartitioned my system (to make an extra windows partition for games) and I copied my /dev/sda4 to /dev/sda3, and deleted /dev/sda4. /etc/fstab still shows /dev/sda4 as the /home directory, but gnome-system-monitor shows /home as /dev/sda3.  I mean, I'm glad I don't have to edit /etc/fstab manually, but why is it doing this?
[04:49] <shm613> te_: under Access Point it says Invalid
[04:49] <mac_> gr8, but i dont see any external devices for this /media/dellutility
[04:49] <JoshJ> astro76: there you go
[04:49] <ushdfgakk> alright alright
[04:49] <bullgard4> English help wanted. What is the first sentence of the English descriptive text that Synaptics provides for the Ubuntu DEB program package 'seblinux1'? The sentence is probably similar to "This package provides the commonly used libraries which are used for a security optimized Linux."
[04:49] <mac_> its something inside my laptop, i guess
[04:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Thanks
[04:49] <jason___> anyway, i have used the Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide v0.5e to death over the last 2 months.  i am using 7.10.  i get the bongos at the startup screen, but i have no sound.  i max out everything in my alsa mixer, but still nothing
[04:50] <te_> shm613: So the correct essid is seen in the output of iwconfig?
[04:50] <jason___> considering i do get the bongos, and the sound worked fine when i used the live cd, i am thinking it must me something simple i am missing
[04:50] <shm613> te_: Yes
[04:50] <JoshJ> bullgard4: i'd help, but i don't see 'seblinux1'. what version are you on?
[04:50] <jason___> i have already tried reinstalls 6 times
[04:50] <te_> shm613: sudo dhclient eth1
[04:50] <te_> shm613: or just:  sudo dhclient
[04:50] <bullgard4> JoshJ: Ubuntu 7.10
[04:50] <mac_> i have another folder /media/OS
[04:51] <mac_> so i'm just curios about it
[04:51] <JoshJ> ah, i see ,i'm still on 7.04
[04:51] <JoshJ> i'll probably end up installing 7.10 over my break at some point just to eliminate this weirdness with my filesystem (and let me clean up my partitions a bit0
[04:51] <CaptainMorgan> !gnomeradio
[04:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gnomeradio - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:51] <Thorsten11> thats a good idea
[04:51] <bullgard4> JoshJ: I made a mistake. The name is 'libselinux1'.
[04:51] <te_> shm613: Did that get you connected?
[04:52] <deusr> Someone help me?
[04:52] <shm613> te_: it returned No DHCPOFFERS received
[04:52] <CaptainMorgan> anyone running their gnomeradio? do I actually need a /dev/radio or is this thing nutz?
[04:52] <astro76> JoshJ, in ubuntu, fstab uses UUIDs by default, is yours?
[04:52] <JoshJ> ah
[04:52] <JoshJ> astro76: yeah, i haven't changed it

[04:52] <Henny> anybody tell me how to load the X-FI audio driver?
[04:52] <IndyGunFreak> Henny: aren' there instructions where you downloaded it?
[04:53] <astro76> JoshJ, are you just looking at the comment in fstab which says /dev/sda4, or are you comparing the actual UUID using the blkid command?
[04:53] <te_> shm613: sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop  and then sudo  /etc/init.d/networking start
[04:53] <Henny> yea not sure though
[04:53] <Henny> Indy new to linux
[04:53] <JoshJ> astro76: it's still showing the date on fstab as being 2007-07-29 and i repartitioned yesterday
[04:53] <JoshJ> i'll check the UID's now though
[04:53] <IndyGunFreak> Henny: no offense, but unless you're new to reading, the instructions on their site would be a good place to start
[04:53] <astro76> JoshJ, well how did you repartition?
[04:53] <Jack_Sparrow> JoshJ: when you change any partiton on a drive all uuid's get reset
[04:54] <te_> shm613: Did that get you connected?
[04:54] <Jack_Sparrow> JoshJ: For that drive only..
[04:54] <JoshJ> i repartitioned by sticking a livedisc in and running gparted
[04:54] <Henny> Quick install
[04:54] <Henny> [04:54] <Henny> 1) You must have the fully configured source for the Linux kernel and
[04:54] <Henny>    ALSA which you
[04:54] <Henny>  want to use for this device driver. Partial installed
[04:54] <Henny>    kernels (e.g. From distribution makers) may be unusable for this
[04:54] <Henny>    action.
[04:54] <Henny> 2) Run one of the following commands as root in the terminal:
[04:54] <Henny>    ./installer
[04:54] <Henny> that's what it says
[04:54] <IndyGunFreak> Henny: are you nuts?
[04:54] <Jack_Sparrow> !paste > Henny
[04:54] <astro76> !paste | Henny

[04:54] <robdig> !pastebin | Henny

[04:54] <te_> Henny: Use pastebin.
[04:55] <JoshJ> ah, thanks
[04:55] <reportingsjr> Is there a way to open chm files on ubuntu 7.10?
[04:55] <JoshJ> the comment is wrong, apparently
[04:55] <shm613> te_: No
[04:55] <astro76> reportingsjr, gnochm
[04:55]  * IndyGunFreak still can't access pastebin for some reason
[04:55] <JoshJ> the UUID is the same for the new /dev/sda3 as the old /dev/sda4 was; but the comment in /etc/fstab is still reporting that as /dev/sda4
[04:55] <JoshJ> i'll fix that now i guess
[04:55] <te_> shm613: Show us the output of iwconfig  (via pastebin)
[04:55] <Henny> sorry

[04:56] <astro76> JoshJ, you've implied you used some tool to do the partitioning which adjusted fstab... I'm not surprised it didn't touch the comments

[04:56] <IndyGunFreak> nickrud: from pastebin?.. why?..
[04:56] <nickrud> IndyGunFreak, a joke, bad one I guess
[04:56] <JoshJ> astro76: yeah, it was ubuntu's built-in gparted
[04:56] <astro76> JoshJ, I think only the install process sets those comments
[04:56] <IndyGunFreak> i've never pasted anything derogatory.
[04:56] <IndyGunFreak> nickrud: lol, ok
[04:56] <Arrick> nickrud how do I change the user:group on a directory and everything in it?

[04:57] <JoshJ> i've still got a busted swap entry, though... right now i don't even HAVE a swap partition :p
[04:57] <ReMrAf> well if so let me know  :) thanks
[04:58] <te_> JoshJ: Not a big problem long as you have plenty of RAM.
[04:58] <astro76> JoshJ, it could be a useful option... keep in mind it's something that Ubuntu does, the comment thing is not standard, and most distros don't even use UUID yet I believe
[04:58] <shm613> te_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49661/
[04:58] <shm613> sorry
[04:58] <JoshJ> thanks for directing me to blkid btw, now i'll be able to set that up myself if i have to.
[04:58] <astro76> JoshJ, no problem
[04:58] <ReMrAf> astro you know anything about my problem?
[04:58] <JoshJ> as theoretically all i would have to do is change the UUID and leave all the other options in the line the same, right? :)
[04:59] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[04:59] <astro76> ReMrAf, not really
[04:59] <te_> Can you ping your router?  e.g. ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:59] <ReMrAf> know anyone that would ?
[04:59] <JoshJ> te_: i've got a gig and i rarely cross 300 MB; if for some reason I keep feisty rather than upgrading I'll probably yank two gigs or so from my windows partition and use those for swap.
[05:00] <deusr> Helpp!!!!
[05:00] <deusr> USB not detect
[05:00] <_Casey_> if i plug in my mic do i need to install drivers for it or anything?
[05:00] <JoshJ> _Casey_: that depends on the mic usually
[05:00] <_Casey_> its just a usb logitech
[05:00] <verb3k> deusr, what is your device?
[05:01] <bazhang> deusr: need more info
[05:01] <_Casey_> i want to plug it in and use it with the stickam.com service if possible
[05:01] <MrPiracy> anyone here knows the secret to have direct rendering enabled using i810 driver?
[05:01] <te_> shm613: Can you ping your router?  e.g. ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:01] <JoshJ> i probably need to just do a fresh install to get rid of the cruft i've accumulated anyway... i've got so many virtual discs where I was learning how to use VMWare that I've probably got 10 gigs of *nothing* lying around >_<

[05:04] <pvl> are there keys to grab my screen for a virtual screen?
[05:04] <verb3k> deusr,  sorry :(
[05:05] <_Casey_> what would the device be listed as under volume preferences
[05:05] <_Casey_> its USB
[05:05] <MrPiracy> anyone here using intel's 946gz chipset?
[05:05] <IndyGunFreak> deusr: whats the problem?
[05:05] <te_> shm613: Did you do: sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop  and then sudo  /etc/init.d/networking start  ?
[05:05] <JoshJ> _Casey_: 'audio input' or something?
[05:05] <shm613> te_: Yes
[05:05] <deusr> IndyGunFreak: Clock Mp3 USB not detected by ubuntu
[05:05] <_Casey_> mic boost, capture, digital?
[05:05] <JoshJ> gnome-alsamixer shows a "mic" and "capture" category
[05:06] <IndyGunFreak> deusr: thats a piss poor explanation
[05:06] <verb3k> IndyGunFreak, he can't get his usb device to work , the error messages of dmesg | tail is here http://paste.ubuntubrasil.org/4653
[05:06] <shm613> te_: I can ping my router with the patch cable plugged in but not when it isnt and trying to ping over wireless
[05:06] <te_> shm613: Then manually give eth1 an IP address, one that is not in the DHCP pool.  e.g. ifconfig eth1 <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:06] <bazhang> deusr: what are you trying to do? what is clock mp3 usb? what system, etc?
[05:06] <JoshJ> I suspect it would be "Mic" under gnome-alsamixer and "capture" is recording the sound that comes out of the computer
[05:06] <te_> shm613: And then, try to ping the router:  ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:06] <JoshJ> i don't know what volume program you're using :(
[05:07] <IndyGunFreak> verb3k: that paste isn't working for me.
[05:07] <te_> shm613: Then manually give eth1 an IP address:  sudo ifconfig eth1 <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:07] <te_> shm613: Unplug the cable
[05:07] <verb3k> IndyGunFreak, strange ...
[05:07] <jason___> does ubuntu have a remote access feature where someone can look at my desktop and help me figure out why i can't get sound
[05:07] <voice> can someone help me please?
[05:07] <_Casey_> im looking
[05:07] <IndyGunFreak> !someone | voice
[05:07] <ubotu> voice: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[05:08] <JoshJ> jason___: sure, it's called "ssh"
[05:08] <voice> because i asked it twice before and no one replied
[05:08] <te_> shm613: Did you do: sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop  and then sudo  /etc/init.d/networking start  when the cable was unplugged?
[05:08] <demonspork> jason___, what type of sound card do you have?
[05:08] <jason___> sorry, i am a noob
[05:08] <IndyGunFreak> voice: then either have patience, or if a fair amount of time has passed, ask again
[05:08] <verb3k> bazhang, I think he's talking about a usb mp3 player or something. He can't get his usb device to work , the error messages of dmesg | tail is here http://paste.ubuntubrasil.org/4653
[05:08] <jason___> i have an ICH5
[05:08] <JoshJ> note that giving someone you don't know ssh access to your computer is basically giving them free rein
[05:08] <xenthro> help needed: ubuntu crashes after a while when screensaver is on. screen goes black, caps lock key flashes and no keys work. I always need to do a hard reboot but when i restart I have no idea why exactly it happened. any ideas?
[05:08] <jason___> sager laptop
[05:08] <Cpudan80> Is there a way to make a touchpad (on a laptop) less sensitive to extraneous taps?
[05:08] <jason___> when i enter aplay -l that's what it says
[05:08] <JoshJ> Cpudan80: yeah
[05:08] <voice> a fair amount of time did pass, im not impatient
[05:08] <Cpudan80> It's a T42
[05:08] <deusr> IndyGunFreak: My father has ubuntu in the machine and won a clock mp3, that the plugar in ubuntu, it does not mount it. My gentoo mounts and creates an icon on the desktop of the gnome.
[05:08] <Cpudan80> JoshJ: How?
[05:08] <JoshJ> Cpudan80: you want to turn off "touch to click"?
[05:08] <JoshJ> or just reduce sensitivity?
[05:08] <bazhang> verb3k: I saw that :} but he should give us answers to more pertinent questions, aye?
[05:09] <_Casey_> Joshj
[05:09] <IndyGunFreak> deusr: sorr, i have no idea what would cause that.
[05:09] <_Casey_> i see it under device manager
[05:09] <te_> xenthro: Turn off screensaver
[05:09] <jason___> i get the bongos at start up, but nothing while in the desktop
[05:09] <Cpudan80> JoshJ: Well - I tap the thing with my wrist, and the mouse goes all spastic
[05:09] <deusr> IndyGunFreak: thanks :/
[05:09] <CyberMad> is that ok, that i use ubuntu-desktop as server
[05:09] <Cpudan80> I dont want to turn the thing off entirely
[05:09] <te_> xenthro: Or at least turn off the "blank screen" part.
[05:09] <JoshJ> Cpudan80: are you talking about clicking or moving it?
[05:09] <voice> Anyway, my real question is why when i try to boot my ubuntu live cd does it come up "failed to set xfermode" when the first time it worked perfectly?
[05:09] <mac_> hi guys
[05:09] <shm613> te_: Still cant ping router
[05:09] <xenthro> te_ its not blank
[05:09] <bazhang> deusr: last time: what are trying to do? what system?
[05:09] <deusr> bazhang: y father has ubuntu in the machine and won a clock mp3, that the plugar in ubuntu, it does not mount it. My gentoo mounts and creates an icon on the desktop of the gnome.
[05:09] <Cpudan80> JoshJ: It'll do both somtimes
[05:09] <CyberMad> i will run virtualbox inside, then each virtual machine i install debian with specific duty
[05:10] <JoshJ> you can adjust mouse speed rather simply
[05:10] <te_> shm613: Did you do: sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop  and then sudo  /etc/init.d/networking start  when the cable was unplugged?
[05:10] <mac_> what the use of /media/dellutility folder?
[05:10] <Cpudan80> JoshJ: I'd have to play with the config a little --- where do I go to mess with it?
[05:10] <IndyGunFreak> voice: sorry, no clue on that one, never heard of that problem
[05:10] <xenthro> te_ and it crashed before even without the SS... it would just lock up my screen and keys would not work
[05:10] <verb3k> bazhang, I can understand him
[05:10] <Thorsten11> mac_ hi there
[05:10] <bazhang> deusr: that does not answer my question what are you trying to do?

[05:10] <shm613> te_: yes
[05:10] <mac_> yep Thorstenll
[05:10] <_Casey_> Joshj "Usb Audio Interface" ;x
[05:10] <JoshJ> Cpudan80: if you add the following line to your /etc/xorg.conf (under "section 'InputDevice'") it will turn off the "tap to click" thing. This isn't adjustable through the standard system-preferences thing.	Option		"MaxTapTime"	"0"
[05:10] <te_> shm613: Did you give it an IP address?
[05:10] <verb3k> bazhang, he's trying to get hs device to work man what's up ???
[05:11] <mac_> hi Thorsten11
[05:11] <shm613> te_: Yes
[05:11] <Cpudan80> JoshJ: Is there a way to just make it so that the taps are required to be longer?
[05:11] <te_> shm613: Give command: ifconfig  [with no arguments] and see if it has IP <IP_ADDRESS>.
[05:11] <JoshJ> _Casey_: i've never used a microphone, I'm just trying to offer suggestions. the standard gnome-volume-control shows a "microphone" category, i'd suggest turning that up and seeing what happens
[05:11] <Cpudan80> JoshJ: IE 1 second or so
[05:11] <te_> shm613: ifconfig eth1
[05:11] <Shadow147> can run a compilied program without installing it?
[05:12] <bazhang> verb3k: dont know sync music, transfer data files, etc, there is a different method for each fix
[05:12] <_Casey_> JoshJ
[05:12] <JoshJ> Cpudan80: yeah, you just change that length of time
[05:12] <_Casey_> thats for the mic port, not usb
[05:12] <_Casey_> !microphone
[05:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about microphone - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:12] <Cpudan80> JoshJ: Is that # in seconds?
[05:12] <JoshJ> Cpudan80: i don't know, i just set it to 0 because i personally dislike tap to click
[05:12] <te_> shm613: Does the second line of the output of ifconfig eth1 show IP address:  "<IP_ADDRESS>" ?
[05:12] <JoshJ> i'd guess it's seconds or milliseconds
[05:12] <bmk789> anyone using an intel X3100?
[05:12] <deusr> bazhang: that does not answer my question what are you trying to do?
[05:12] <nickrud> Cpudan80, you can add the line Option "SHMConfig" "1" to /etc/X11/xorg.conf , then you can run gsynaptics , it gives you some control over the pad
[05:12] <mac_>  what the use of /media/dellutility folder? anybody
[05:12] <tofaffy> I have an ATI 1100 graphics card on my laptop and a Hanns G HW191D...the drivers for the monitor aren't on Ubuntu by default and the screen resolution is HUGE....does anyone know how I can fix this?
[05:12] <tofaffy> I can't find anything on the internet
[05:12] <deusr> bazhang: Sorry, I am trying to plug-in the clock in ubuntu and he mount the device so that I can copy some songs for him.
[05:13] <shm613> te_: No
[05:13] <Shadow147> tofaffy well first you need to install your cards restricted drive
[05:13] <te_> shm613: Did you enter the MAC 00:00:00:1A:73:B2   into your router's list of allowed MACs?
[05:13] <Cpudan80> nickrud: thanks - I'll mess around with it
[05:13] <bazhang> deusr: haha--open amarok, then insert the device--then go to devices in amarok and look for the device in the applet at the top of the screen
[05:13] <Shadow147> tofaffy | !find ATI
[05:13] <nickrud> tofaffy, your card isn't supported by the default ubuntu driver, you have to go to system->admin->restricted drivers and enable the fglrx one
[05:13] <tofaffy> Shadow147, what is the name of the ATI drivers?...I think I have them already installed
[05:14] <te_> shm613: Then issue command:  sudo ifconfig eth1 <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:14] <tofaffy> Shadow147, I had issues with the fglrx drivers
[05:14] <tofaffy> It was EXTREMEMLY slow
[05:14] <jimbo> I got a bad ntsf problem anyone up for this
[05:14] <jimbo> ?
[05:14] <bazhang> deusr: this may take a couple of trys and be patient, but it will get mounted--come hell or high water :}
[05:14] <_Casey_> hmm
[05:14] <te_> shm613: And then issue command: ifconfig [with no argument] to confirm that eth1 has IP <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:14] <Shadow147> tofaffy hmm I am using the restricted drivers for my card and mine is a Nvidia Card
[05:15] <tofaffy> Mine is ATI...
[05:15] <bazhang> sorry for the language channel
[05:15] <nickrud> tofaffy, was that the ones from ubuntu or the one you download from ati
[05:15] <_Casey_> how do i view running process and the pid from konsole
[05:15] <shm613> te_: Now it had the ip
[05:15] <JoshJ> ps -e | grep processname
[05:15] <te_> Casey:  ps aux
[05:15] <tofaffy> nickrud, xorg-driver-fglrx from ubuntu repos
[05:15] <JoshJ> or that :p
[05:15] <Shadow147> hey nickrud can a compiled be launched without installing it?
[05:15] <te_> shm613: ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:16] <hacked_kernel> I have Gutsy installed on a laptop, I have a problem with my ipw2200 card, it reconnects automatically in very short time which makes the connection is unstable, i had the same issue in fiesty, any help?
[05:16] <JoshJ> Shadow147: sure, cd to the folder and do ./binaryname
[05:16] <te_> shm613: Are you now able to ping the router?
[05:16] <nickrud> tofaffy, hrm, do you have the linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r) installed?
[05:16] <Shadow147> JoshJ thanks so I just do a make?
[05:16] <JoshJ> Shadow147: you have to chmod it to +x
[05:16] <JoshJ> yeah
[05:16] <Cpudan80> nickrud: Are you sure it's 1 and not "true" ?
[05:16] <mac_>  what the use of /media/dellutility folder? any help
[05:16] <JoshJ> make, then chmod the binary to +x
[05:16] <Shadow147> JoshJ ok
[05:16] <nickrud> Cpudan80, they're equivalent
[05:16] <tofaffy> nickrud, how do I search for it?
[05:17] <_Casey_> it says firfox is open but i did a forcequit on it
[05:17] <JoshJ> _Casey_: do killall firefox-bin
[05:17] <Cpudan80> nickrud: oh ok - didn't realize that (that makes sense though)
[05:17] <tofaffy> jared@jared-laptop:~$ uname -r

[05:17] <Cpudan80> brb
[05:17] <nickrud> tofaffy, aptitude search linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r) in the terminal, if it has an i in the first column it's installed
[05:17] <_Casey_> oh that worked
[05:17] <JoshJ> hacked_kernel: this seems to be a bug with your card, look at the search results here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/?value=ipw2200&action=fullsearch&context=180
[05:17] <mac_> hey guys, answer to me pls,  what the use of /media/dellutility folder in an dell ubuntu system
[05:17] <shm613> te_: Still doesnt ping
[05:17] <BubblegumTate> how can I get a package off the repos onto a computer that isn't connected to the internets?
[05:18] <JoshJ> there may be something in there that can help you
[05:18] <Robbie_Crash> is there a way to directly insert text from the command line into a text file?
[05:18] <bullgard4> Why does HAL_Device_Manager not provide RAM information? Or did I overlook something?
[05:18] <nickrud> BubblegumTate, packages.ubuntu.com
[05:18] <kamil> Can anyone help with enemy territory installation ? pubkbuster kicks me because of empty CD-key, what should i do?
[05:18] <deusr> bazhang: You do not understand, when I plug-in the PC, I can enchergar it by the device cat /proc/partition, and the lsusb, but does not appear in the /dev
[05:18] <_Casey_> my firefox freezes on stickam.com now
[05:18] <tofaffy> nickrud, jared@jared-laptop:~$ aptitude search linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)

[05:18] <te_> shm613: What is the essid of your router?
[05:19] <shm613> te_: Home
[05:19] <hacked_kernel> JoshJ: some people were talking about this issue in launchpad, they said that its a problem with the driver
[05:19] <bazhang> deusr: this is an mp3 player? a clock? a combo mp3player/clock? allof the above?
[05:19] <Onyx> wtf...
[05:19] <Onyx> looking for some help
[05:19] <deusr> yes
[05:19] <Robbie_Crash> Without the use of an editor, if I just want to append the line to the end of the file?
[05:19] <JoshJ> mac_: i found it
[05:19] <nickrud> tofaffy, it's installed then. I don't know why you would have problems with that driver. For some reason it's slow for some people, for most it's fine
[05:19] <JoshJ> You might be wondering what the two vfat partitions at the front of the disk are:
[05:19] <JoshJ> /dev/sda1 mounts to /media/DellUtility
[05:19] <JoshJ> I wont be clearing this partition after all, since magicfab pointed out that it is a Dell hardware diagnostics environment implemented in DOS. I have the tendancy to jump to conclusions when I see anything .EXE
[05:19] <JoshJ> from : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2764621
[05:19] <Onyx> I just hit something+r (on the keyboard) and it zoomed my screen in... how the hell do I get it back to normal zoom?
[05:19] <bazhang> Onyx: what is the issue?
[05:19] <deusr> bazhang: clock mp3+FM+write
[05:19] <bazhang> compiz onyx?
[05:20] <_Casey_> onyx try f1 i think
[05:20] <tofaffy> nickrud, I'll try it again...how do I enable it again?
[05:20] <jimbo> can anyone help me with a ntfs problem i am having
[05:20] <Cpudan80> nickrud: Works great - ty
[05:20] <mac_> hey Joshj
[05:20] <nickrud> tofaffy, system->admin->restricted manager
[05:20] <Robbie_Crash> !ntfs | jimbo
[05:20] <JoshJ> jimbo: give details and then we'll see if we can help?
[05:20] <mac_> whats that for
[05:20] <ubotu> jimbo: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE
[05:20] <Onyx> bazhang: nah, I don't think it's compiz... it's like the entire screen is zoomed
[05:20] <Cpudan80> And it clearly adjusts the sensitivity -- I cranked it way down
[05:20] <bio> so.. what's going on with flash these days?
[05:20] <mac_> JoshJ:whats that for
[05:20] <_Casey_> bio
[05:20] <bio> yes
[05:20] <_Casey_> you mean macromedia
[05:20] <JoshJ> you mean adobe :p
[05:21] <kamil> how to fix empty cd-key problem in et?
[05:21] <bio> _Casey_, like adobe flash player
[05:21] <te_> shm613: Then it should work.  That's all there is to wireless networking. You set the ESSID and an IP address that is on the same network and if the router will accept the connection, that should do it.
[05:21] <JoshJ> mac_: it's a review, but he mentions that dell has a DOS diagnostics tool in that partition
[05:21] <bio> _Casey_, watch google vids
[05:21] <_Casey_> flash still doesnt work with webcams for video4linuxv2 grrrrrrrr
[05:21] <nickrud> Cpudan80, yw. I used it for a while, then lost it during a reconfig. I ended up training myself :)
[05:21] <Shadow147> bio flash is still broken
[05:21] <jimbo> can anyone help me with a ntfs problem i am having
[05:21] <Cpudan80> nickrud: lol
[05:21] <Shadow147> bio for linux
[05:21] <JoshJ> presumably if you go to them with a problem they run those DOS diagnostics
[05:21] <bio> Shadow147, how do I watch google vids?
[05:21] <Shadow147> !find flash
[05:21] <ubotu> Found: flashrom, flashybrid, libflash-dev, libflash-mozplugin, libflash-swfplayer (and 6 others)
[05:21] <Robbie_Crash> jimbo what is your ntfs problem?
[05:21] <IndyGunFreak> bio: flash is fine if you donwload the tarball from adobe, and install it that way, its the version in the repos thats broken
[05:21] <bio> flash used to work
[05:21] <JoshJ> read the review, there's some details on that there
[05:22] <bio> oh
[05:22] <samm1> in amd64 flash is not working
[05:22] <Robbie_Crash> is there a way to directly insert text from the command line into a text file? Without the use of an editor, if I just want to append the line to the end of the file?
[05:22] <IndyGunFreak> samm1: its never worked in amd64
[05:22] <te_> shm613: Well, there is the possibility that the router does not respond to ping requests, (has port 113 filtered).
[05:22] <bazhang> onyx alt scroll wheel did it for me--if you mean firefox
[05:22] <nickrud> !flash64 | bio
[05:22] <ubotu> bio: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[05:22] <davidthedrake> samm1, You can get a wrapper for it or install a 32-bit version of Firefox
[05:22] <samm1> IndyGunFreak:so what to do?
[05:22] <IndyGunFreak> nickrud: just posted it..
[05:22] <JoshJ> mac_: /media/OS apparently has your install image and some other stuff.
[05:22] <Shadow147> bio !sudo apt-get install flash-mozplugin
[05:22] <shm613> te_: No because I can ping it when I'm wired
[05:22] <_Casey_> why is stickam.com freezing me all of a sudden
[05:22] <_Casey_> even on firefox and galeon
[05:23] <Onyx> bazhang: Nah, it's the entire desktop environment...
[05:23] <arooni________> how do i bond my motorola s9 headphones
[05:23] <te_> shm613: If that is the case, just go on and place a nameserver or 2 in the /etc/resolv.conf file and see if you can surf the net.
[05:23] <Shadow147> without the !
[05:23] <nickrud> IndyGunFreak, you got the quick fingers tonight
[05:23] <arooni________> to my gutsy
[05:23] <mac_> JoshJ: how does it work and whats the use of it?
[05:23] <IndyGunFreak> nickrud: lol,
[05:23] <bio> Shadow147, that one line and I can view vids
[05:23] <bio> ?
[05:23] <JoshJ> mac_: ask dell, not me *shrug*
[05:23] <Shadow147> bio yes
[05:23] <JoshJ> all i know is what i see on that review
[05:23] <bazhang> Onyx: then it must be compiz
[05:23] <Onyx> bazhang: Ahhhh, there we go.
[05:23] <Onyx> windows key+scroll wheel :P
[05:23] <bazhang> Onyx: nice work
[05:23] <bio> Shadow147, that's not the name though
[05:24] <Onyx> bazhang: thanks for the direction :P
[05:24] <JoshJ> "windows key"? what's that for you, meta?
[05:24] <mac_> JoshJ; they gave a windows booklet when i purchased linux box from them :)
[05:24] <Robbie_Crash> JoshJ SUPER
[05:24] <Onyx> bazhang: That sure was annoying... ;)
[05:24] <bio> bio@bio-bushi:~$ sudo apt-get install flash
[05:24] <bio> flashkard            flashplugin          flashybrid
[05:24] <bio> flashplayer-mozilla  flashplugin-nonfree
[05:24] <Smegzor> Is there a tool to monitor network traffic for an individual application?
[05:24] <nickrud> !bluetooth | arooni________
[05:24] <ubotu> arooni________: For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[05:24] <bio> sorry about the paste
[05:24] <mac_> hi bio
[05:24] <bazhang> Onyx: and that is the Super key now :}
[05:24] <Onyx> JoshJ: Hmm?
[05:24] <mac_> bio: hi
[05:24] <bio> mac_, yoyoyo
[05:24] <IndyGunFreak> stickkam seems to be working fine for me... for those interested
[05:24] <JoshJ> Onyx: there's no "windows key" in Linux :p
[05:24] <Onyx> bazhang: What does that key do for me now?
[05:24] <JoshJ> bio: i think you want flashplugin-nonfree
[05:24] <_Casey_> indy you can access it?
[05:25] <bio> flashplugin-nonfree... that's what I thought
[05:25] <IndyGunFreak> _Casey_: yes, its working fine
[05:25] <IndyGunFreak> i'm watching it now.
[05:25] <_Casey_> i go on firefox and galeon and the browsers just freeze
[05:25] <samm1> :-( Is there no way I can make flash work in amd 64 ??
[05:25] <mac_> give an answer man, whats the usage of /media/OS folder ...it is having the linux image
[05:25] <te_> shm613: Well, we have covered all there is to cover.  If you have the ESSID right and you have an IP address that is accessable as per the router's config. that should get you in contact with the LAN and you should be able to ping the router. (That is prviding that the wireless NIC on the router is alllowed to answer ping requests, and it IS possible that the router is blocking pings from the wired NIC).
[05:25] <IndyGunFreak> _Casey_: i'm using firefox.
[05:25] <Onyx> bazhang: Been about six years since I last used Linux (just installed Ubuntu this morning), and that key didn't do anything for me back in the day.
[05:25] <JoshJ> mac_: think "recovery partition"
[05:25] <Shadow147> bio do sudo apt-get install flashplayer-mozilla and flashplugin-nonfree just to be safe
[05:25] <nickrud> !flash64 | samm1
[05:25] <bazhang> Onyx: try super e, super q; if you have the ccsm extensions checked it is the master of key combox
[05:25] <ubotu> samm1: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[05:25] <_Casey_> reinstall firefox or what?
[05:25] <jebblue> Smegzor you want to monitor traffic for a particular app?
[05:25] <Onyx> samm1: Yeah, on FireFox?
[05:25] <Smegzor> jebblue: thats the idea
[05:25] <samm1> tried but didn't work
[05:25] <IndyGunFreak> Casey: maybe, i don't know, what version fo firefox?
[05:25] <bio> The Flash plugin was NOT installed
[05:25] <bazhang> err combos
[05:25] <mac_> JoshJ: hows does it work then if i need to recover?
[05:26] <samm1> gnash is too crappy
[05:26] <_Casey_> default that came with this im guessing
[05:26] <Onyx> bazhang: super q does nothing, but super e is pretty badass.
[05:26] <jebblue> Smegzor good question I've often wanted to do that too
[05:26] <JoshJ> mac_: ask dell, or perhaps do some shenanigans with grub
[05:26] <shm613> te_: when i do iwlist scan it returns No scan results
[05:26] <te_> shm613: Look at /etc/resolv.conf  and see if you have nameservers listed.
[05:26]  * IndyGunFreak thinks Ubuntu needs to fix this flash problem, i'm sick of hearing, "Flash not installed"
[05:26] <nickrud> bio, they've told you that flash in the repos is broken, use the one from adobe
[05:26] <te_> shm613: cat /etc/resolv.conf
[05:26] <IndyGunFreak> _Casey_: well, what version of ubuntu are you using?
[05:26] <bio> nickrud, then someone said otherwise
[05:26] <JoshJ> bio: i'm on feisty still, btw
[05:26] <rencore_> if i pull out my usb mouse and plug it back in ubuntu doesnt see it forcing me to reboot how can i fix this
[05:26] <JoshJ> so if it's broken in gutsy i'm unaware
[05:26] <shm613> te_: yes there are two nameservers listed
[05:27] <te_> shm613: Are you using native driver or ndiswrapper?
[05:27] <_Casey_> im on....
[05:27] <bazhang> Onyx: try and enabling it then :}
[05:27] <JoshJ> i've done an install out of the tarball on dapper, it's not hard :p
[05:27] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[05:27] <Onyx> Hmmmmm.... having issues getting coolkey to work with firefox.
[05:27] <bio> JoshJ, feisty here too
[05:27] <te_> shm613: host av.com
[05:27] <Sturm> Is it possible to make removeable devices (mp3players, flash drives) not have owners so that anyone can mount one in any user and always have permission to read and write to them?
[05:27] <te_> shm613:  Does that return anything?
[05:27] <JoshJ> bio: then try it, you can removei it later
[05:27] <bio> yeah, I got the tarball thing
[05:27] <shm613> te_: the driver from the restricted drivers manager
[05:27] <te_> Sturm: Yes
[05:27] <Smegzor> jebblue: I'm hosting a game server (halflife2) over the holidays. It doesn't appear to be a bandwidth hog, but I'm worried that if I leave it running all night, it'll suck me dry.
[05:27] <_Casey_> its an audio/video production version, i forget
[05:27] <JoshJ> the tarball is dead easy, you just stick the .so into the right dir
[05:28] <IndyGunFreak> _Casey_: ubuntu studio?
[05:28] <_Casey_> yes
[05:28] <_Casey_> thats it
[05:28] <te_> Sturm: Just edit the /etc/group file and place new users where they have access.
[05:28] <Shadow147> this nice also I just double-clicked on it and it launched
[05:28] <_Casey_> stickam was working earlier, not anymore
[05:28] <jebblue> Smegzor yup good one I've wanted to do some monitoring like that with the old Unreal server too
[05:29] <IndyGunFreak> Casey: ubuntu studio kinda does its own thing, so i don't really know what to tell you... open a terminal and type "lsb_release -a"  and see what the output is.
[05:29] <JoshJ> _Casey_: then undo whatever you did with the mic?
[05:29] <jebblue> Smegzor asks how to monitor the network traffic for just one app?
[05:29] <_Casey_> all i did was plug it in
[05:29] <danfg> anyone using eclipse 3.3?
[05:29] <Shadow147> this will allow me to compile programs and use them without installation just like in windows
[05:29] <JoshJ> :/
[05:29] <bio> should I use /usr/lib/mozilla    ? is that the default path?
[05:29] <IndyGunFreak> JoshJ: i dont' think that would effect flash, but who knows.
[05:29] <nickrud> danfg, from eclipse.org , yes
[05:29] <IndyGunFreak> bio: i think it should work
[05:29] <JoshJ> IndyGunFreak: when something breaks, undo whatever your most recent change was :p
[05:29] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[05:30] <_Casey_> http://pastebin.com/m4eea0b62
[05:30] <shm613> te_: the connection timed out with host av.com
[05:30] <danfg> nickrud: where can i find an eclipse 3.3 debian package?
[05:30] <te_> shm613: You might re-boot and see if that does anything.  Reboot with the wired nic unplugged.
[05:30] <nickrud> and keep a log book!
[05:30] <jebblue> Smegzor asks how to monitor the network traffic for just one app?
[05:30] <IndyGunFreak> _Casey_: i dont' know, i use gutsy, and flash is working fine for me.
[05:30] <Onyx> Anyone here use coolkey/PKCS #11?
[05:30] <orionn> ok... im sure this is a repeated issue... but i've googled my arse off
[05:30] <IndyGunFreak> _Casey_: can you view youtube?
[05:30]  * _Casey_ tries
[05:30] <carpediem> danfg: do you really need a Debian package?  Can't you just download it from eclipse.com?
[05:30] <orionn> my integrated webcam/mic works in skype and ekiga
[05:31] <Smegzor> jebblue: um..  why are you doing that?
[05:31] <carpediem> danfg: errr, eclipse.org rather
[05:31] <orionn> cant get it to activate in a flash webchat
[05:31] <bio> /usr/lib/firefox
[05:31] <_Casey_> yep works fine
[05:31] <orionn> dell 1720 integrated
[05:31] <bio> ls |more
[05:31] <jebblue> Smegzor because I want to know too?
[05:31] <_Casey_> or not it just froze
[05:31] <nickrud> danfg, I haven't seen one. I just untarred (unzipped?) the download into my ~/local dir, linked the executable into ~/bin , put ~/bin on my path and all was good
[05:31] <IndyGunFreak> _Casey_: now that is wierd.
[05:31] <Smegzor> spamming won't help
[05:31] <Sturm> I still dont get what I am supposed to do, I dont see any  "disk"
[05:31] <IndyGunFreak> _Casey_: well, that makes more sense.. something has happeend to your flash.
[05:31] <_Casey_> i let it sit for a second to load a video and it just froze
[05:31] <orionn> anyone? anyone? Beuler?
[05:31] <orionn> Beuler?
[05:31] <danfg> carpediem: i had eclipse 3.3 working then it suddenly went nuts and i removed it. it all happened after i added/removed some unrelated (apparently) packages with synaptic. i'm scared :(
[05:32] <bio> there it is
[05:32] <jimbo> Can anyone help me
[05:32] <jimbo> I just put linux on my desktop it used to have windows and the os was on a raid and the raid failed so i took out the hd with the error and put linux on a new hard drive, one of the hardrives (not part of the raid) was in the computer and was hiberanted by windows and now linux wouldnt let me mount the hd because it was hibernated by windows.
[05:32] <Silver_Fox> Hey all, i was wondering, are there any good video edeting programs for linux?  Also, are there any good screen recorders?
[05:32] <IndyGunFreak> _Casey_: i would use synaptic to uninstall flash, then download the tar.gz file from Adobve.com, and reinstalll flash using it.
[05:32] <carpediem> danfg: hmm, strange.  Never had a problem with it at all, other than when I ran the 64bit version
[05:32] <jebblue> Smegzor you're welcome man if I knew I'd tell you in detail instead I get criticized for trying to find someone who know, thanks.
[05:32] <J_Laptop> jimbo - do you care about the data on that drive?
[05:32] <orionn> i installed the flash-nonfree 9.0 from adobe
